A/N: Unlike my previous two stories 'Scott Pilgrim and Knives Chau vs. the Arcade' and its sequel 'Scott Pilgrim vs. the Indigo Prophecy (And Other Things)' this fic will be based off of the graphic novels. The novels are referenced about once every chapter in 'Scott Pilgrim vs. the Indigo Prophecy (And Other Things)', but it's still based more off of what happens in the movie. This story is not a sequel to either fic though it does take place after 'Scott Pilgrim's Finest Hour'.

I was somewhat hesitant about whether or not I should post this story as it just randomly came to me one day, but let's face it. This site needs more Scott Pilgrim fics. Wouldn't you agree? I have something of an idea as to where I want to take this story. This chapter is meant to be a teaser. Kind of like the intro cut scene of a video game in a way.

The moon was high in the sky as the midnight hour passed. Most of the people of this lively city had usually turned in to their homes for the night; but not tonight. In one particular building... well more like fortress, nearly every citizen of the small city had been gathered there to witness a triple execution of three men. None of them showed any fear in the face of death. They were ready to accept their fates.

"You see these three!" A man shouted to the audience as he paced in front of the men that were to be hanged. "They claim their acts are in service to God, but they are nothing, but cold blooded murderers! Killers! And now you will all witness as they get their just rewards!" He shouted to the audience, who actually erupted into a thunderous applause.

On the roof of the adjacent building stood a lone figure. Though the night was cold it didn't affect the person. She took a running start and leapt to the walls of the fortress grabbing hold of one of the windows. She then began to carefully scale the building; doing her best to not blow her cover or fall. Though very skilled even she couldn't survive such a fall onto the hard streets below. She could hear the man still preaching to the audience about the three condemned men. She didn't have much time and increased the pace of her climb. Upon reaching the top she looked over the edge and saw three armed guards.

She slipped over the edge and onto the roof and then quietly killed each one by snapping their necks. They never even saw her coming. She climbed down a ladder and found herself in a courtyard just outside the main room where the execution would take place. She could hear the guy still giving a monologue about the ones to be killed. She quickly snuck over to the door and slowly cracked it open. She saw a large crowd; backs all turned to her.

"What the! ?" She heard another guard shout; must've found the bodies. The girl wasted no time and slipped inside of the main room quietly shut the door behind her. This room was rather large; it was impressive that it could hold such a crowd. It would take a little time for her to successfully maneuver herself through the crowd, but the girl was not deterred. She was just another face. Anonymous just like every other person was in this fortress. It was now or never and she started to walk through the crowd. Fast enough to reach her desired target in time, but not so much that she would draw attention to herself.

"And now the time has come!" Her target announced as the audience cheered again. He was about to motion for his guards to initiate the hanging when he spotted her. His eyes widened in fear at the site of the person sent here to kill him and save the condemned men.

"Men to arms! To arms!" He shouted to his guards. They nodded and drew their swords.

Most people would find their appearance to be intimidating. But not Ramona Flowers. She sprinted out of the crowd while digging through her sub-space bag for her hammer. The first guard reached her and raised his sword in the air for a tremendous swing.

"Too slow," Ramona said and swung her hammer out of the bag striking the guard in the left side of his waist. He didn't even have time to feel the pain of the blow as he was sent flying off the stage and into the stone wall. His chances of surviving the impact at that speed weren't very high. Especially since he hit the wall hard enough to make a hold in it. The next guard tried his luck, but Ramona avoided his quick strike with her ninja like reflexes and hit him in the throat.

The guard barely had any time to gasp when the hammer came into contact. Like the first guard he was sent flying in the other direction; past his master and the three men making a crash beyond the eyes of the crowd. The final guard was dressed in armor and was the largest of the three. Despite his size he was very fast with his weapon. He took a swing nearly taking off Ramona's head. She just barely dodged the attack and jumped back avoiding his next strike.

"Going up," Ramona said and swung up her hammer connecting with the guards chin. In addition to most likely shattering a few bones in his head Ramona also sent the man blasting through the ceiling and then the roof. It reminded her of when Todd did the same thing to Scott, but now wasn't the time to reminisce. She still had a job to complete. Directing her gaze at the templar she was sent to kill she rushed forward putting while putting her hammer into her bag. The templar was much too frightened to move after seeing what Ramona did to his men.

She jumped into the air and everything moved in slow motion for both her and him. She reached into her chest and pulled out the power of love. The templar finally regained his sense of movement and went to draw his sword, but it was much too late for him and he realized it. It was over quickly for him. Ramona's blade sank into his heart. He didn't suffer in the slightest. Ramona yanked the power of love from the templar's chest. The sword covered in his blood.

"I can worry about that later," she thought pushing the sword back in her body. She took out a feather and dipped it into the man's blood to mark the kill. She was surprised by the look on the man's face. He had a smile on it. "Guess he didn't want to go out scared," Ramona thought then reached forward to close his eyes. The crowd meanwhile was absolutely petrified at what they had just witnessed.

At first none of them could speak. Then one of them found their voice and yelled at the top of his voce, "Assassin!"

"Somebody stop her!" A woman in the crowd cried out. The doors that led to the court yard burst open and six guards raced into the room.

"There she is! After her!" One yelled and the guards sprinted through the crowd.

Ramona looked back at the Assassins that were to be hanged. "The brother's will be here soon," she informed them; kicking off her shoes and putting them in her bag as she did.

"We understand. Go. May God guide you," one said.

"Safety and peace, brothers," Ramona said and ran off the stage just as a guard's sword struck the spot she was at. Ramona whipped out her skates from her sub-space bag and threw them just as she jumped off the stage. Ramona landed in her skates and moved as rapidly as she could towards the exit leaving the guards in the dust.

"So long suckers!" Ramona shouted giving them a wave as she made her way towards the opened door. Seconds before she was about to reach it the doors swung shut. Unable to stop Ramona changed direction and leapt through the window. The glass cut into her skin as she crashed through it and she made a not so graceful crash into the ground.

"We've got you now!" A guard shouted while climbing out the window. Ramona stood up, but felt pain shoot through her leg. She looked at the back of it and saw some glass lodged into it. She quickly pulled it out holding back her screams and got moving again. She didn't have time to scream.

"I need to get off the streets," she thought and Ramona skated top speed at a close buy building. She leapt at a window and used it to scale to the top.

As she climbed up a guard warned, "The assassin is on the roof!" Ramona pulled herself up and an arrow whizzed past her face cutting into her cheek. The guard pulled out another arrow and aimed for Ramona again. She skated towards him almost daring him to try and take the shot, which he did. Ramona snatched the arrow and threw it back at the guard hitting him dead in the chest. He fell off the building and landed on top of two of the guards trying to scale the building sending them both hurtling to the ground. Ramona leapt to the next building and shoved the guard trying to stop her off of it. She reached the edge of the building she was now on and took dove off it into the water below. The ones pursuing her stopping at the edge; not daring to attempt such a jump. Unfortunately for them another guard wasn't looking was he was going and didn't realize they had halted the chase until it was too late. He ran into them and they all fell off the roof. Heads connecting with a nearby bridge killing them instantly. The fell into the water lying motionless for several horrified onlookers to see.

"If they wanted transportation through the water why didn't they just try a gondola," A gondola driver thought obeserving the dead men from his own gondola. A hand shot out of the water and gripped the passing gondola. Ramona pulled herself onto it and the man driving it stared at her.

"Lovely night for a swim wouldn't you say," Ramona said to the gondola driver and shoved him into the water. Ramona reached shore and stepped off the boat.

"That was fun," she thought then heard the sound of several swords being unsheathed.

"Going somewhere?" A guard asked her. Ramona turned to face her opposition. Ten armed guards stood before her with probably more on the way. Ramona began to back up until she was up against a door. "Nowhere to run now," he said.

"I beg to differ," Ramona countered and turned the door knob. She opened the door and casually backed up inside. The guards all sprinted at her as she slowly closed the door in a mocking fashion. The door to sub-space shut and disappeared before the guards' eyes making them instead burst through the door that the sub-space door was in front of.

"Ahhh!" Several women screamed at the sight of the guards. Realizing they had just burst inside of a brothel the guards quickly exited feeling embarrassed and confused all at the same time. They saw that Assassin step through that door and then she's gone. It's like she disappeared into thin air.

You have to wonder why Ramona simply didn't use that sub-space door to begin with.

Meanwhile up on a high tower that overlooked the entire city Ramona watched and laughed silently at the guards trying to find her. She wondered how they must've felt when the barged into that brothel. She went back through her bag and saw that she still had the feather. She took a much needed sigh of relief. True things hadn't gone the way she had hoped, but at least she rescued the Assassins so all in all the night wasn't a complete loss. She knew that her superiors would want her to report back in as soon as possible, but right now Ramona just sat there taking in the view; her figure illuminated by the moonlight. It wasn't everyday that she got to see the moon without two gaping holes in it.

A/N: Well this chapter certainly turned out way longer than I expected it to be. There's going to be more to the story than what you just read. So what did you guys think of this chapter? Review and let me know. See ya soon! BTW, this entire first chapter was meant to be one giant reference to the intro to the game 'Assassin's Creed' to those of you who never played it.
