Chloe crouched in a dark hallway, stalking her prey. She reached beneath her cape for one of her dozens of knives— and suddenly felt a deep stabbing pain in her side.

Resisting the urge to cry out, Chloe twisted around to straighten her knife holster, and stabbed herself with three unseated knives as she twisted. She stumbled backwards, stepped on her cape, and fell flat on her back, impaling herself another six times in the process.

As her eyes lost focus and blood trickled from her mouth, Chloe's last thoughts were of how she should've taken up guns like Kirika.
