down in the basement workshop a few days later, we see Piorun with several different parts on a table we see her fill a cardboard casing with granulated gunpowder and treat it with wax she slides it into a metal tube then she slid a conical shape charge in front of it as she smiles to herself while attaching it

*one rpg 2 Rocket*

she looked at her supplies

*and 10 more rockets to make*

she stored the one rocket in her ship storage and started to make another rocket one by one she took a tube of metal and filled it with gunpowder and a grenade fitting the fins to it and making sure they retracted and extended she nods to herself

"good good"

she stored them in her ship's cargo hold letting them become blue cubes that vanished into herself

*that will make it faster*

she ran her hand on her gunpowder-covered face and sees the black smudging

*I should clean up*

she cleans up the chemicals and supplies she used to make the rockets and grabs the luncher itself and places it in storage

*good now its clean again*

she walks upstairs and sees that it was dark outside

"time to test it"

she smiles to herself as she cracked her fingers

*But first*

we see her wash the gunpowder off her face and dry it

"now what should i target?"

several thoughts run through her head before she lands on the iron-bloods main headquarters and research buildings 

"perfect"

she exits the house in the cover of the moonless night and makes her way to the outer fence of the base

*it's been quiet for a bit let's try going loud*

she cuts the fence and enters the premises making her way to the camera lines and sending a surge of energy into them frying the circuits as she does so she hears alarms ring out on the base

*seems like they found out already*

she makes her way to the research building and pulls out the launcher and loads a rocket into it she smiles as she aims at the building and squeezes the trigger the rocket flew spinning like a top before impacting the wall and detonating, as the wall falls she sees a pair of red eyes in the dust that was now falling  around her she hears a metallic scraping noise and an eerie laugh

but it slowly grows more deranged as it continues before it stops

???: so you decided to harm my dear friends?

Piorun sees the eyes approach as they do the figure of the voice becomes more clear as they approached, they had blond hair with a set of metal horn like objects on her hair, her skin was a pale white not pale enough to be siren tho, she wore a black uniform with red and grey accents paired with a skirt, at her fingertips were not normal gloves these gloves had metal talons, her boots were making a metallic clicking noise as she walked, Piorun looks down to see a pair of black and red metal boots that went up to the knee, as Piorun looks back to the girls face she sees a look of unhinged blood lust in her eyes.

???: "time to tear you apart"

she laughed like it was a game, Piorun's heart quickens in fear as she starts to back up the girl lunged with outstretched talons scratching her face, piorun starts to run as fast as she could but the metallic clicks of the girls footsteps approaching fast, blood and oil was pouring down her face making it hard to see she was navigating off impressions and sounds as she ran wiping the blood off her eyes she looks back and regretted it, she saw the girl giving chase but it was clear she wasn't even near her full speed, she was playing with her like a cat toying with its prey.

Piorun starts to find a wall with metal rebar in it and starts to climb magnetically attaching herself to the wall and scaling, it when she got midway she heard the sound of metal hitting concrete, she looked down and saw the girl digging her hands into the concrete, by slamming her fist into it and grabbing hold of the ledge she made slowly working her way up bit by bit, Piorun starts to climb faster reaching the roof, she resummons her luncher and a rocket and loads the tube and aims where she thinks the monster of a girl was going to pop up.

a mistake

she feels a sudden pain of her arm getting clawed and bleeding profusely she stumbles back dropping the RPG in pain, she looks at the glowing red eyes of the girl in fear, the girl smiles and laughs at first like she heard a good joke but it grew more and more deranged as she looked back at Piorun with a predatory gaze.

???: so~

this shift of tone raised Pioruns heart rate

???: what to do

the girl ran a taloned finger down her cheek suddenly Piorun feels a large spike in pain her entire body in agony, everything goes dark, and she lost consciousness

she woke up in a dimly lit room with a bright light that shined on her face, she was tied to the chair, and she hears a distinct sound of a clock ticking she looks around and saw no clocks no windows just a door that she faced she sits there for several minutes before hearing a hissing sound as she hears it her vision dims again before she loses consciousness once again
