Chapter 99:

Waki's poison

Spice of life [Remake]


At the restaurant, Waki nervously gazed out at the dining room.

"Why do you look so worried?" Mimi asked.

"Something feels off," Waki replied.

"Off? Like what do you mean?"

"Shouldn't you know? It feels like there's killing intent, but also not at- GAH!?"

Waki grimaced in pain as she stared down at her stomach. Mimi had skewered her with her arm.

"Shit, I messed up. Who the hell are you?" Waki glared at "Mimi".

"Ahahaha! You really did notice to little too late," the fake Mimi cackled as she transformed into her true form, a girl with orange twintails clad in a silver bodysuit. "You can call me... well, guess I'll just let Mimi do the introductions," the girl sneered as Mimi returned to the restaurant.

"Why was there a "closed" sign on the- ...!?" Mimi stood in shock as she stared at the mysterious woman and Waki. "M- Mille?" she trembled.

"Bin Pon! Correct, though now my codename's L3R-N43-4NH," Mille sneered.

Mimi immediately charged her and began clashing with her. "I'm not dumb enough to believe you're really Mille. Mille's dead, she diedcof old age," Mimi glared.

"Are you sure, dearie?" Mille sneered as she suddenly transformed into the old lady Mimi and Rika had met over 7 years ago.

"I'm not getting tricked!" Mimi yelled as she beheaded the woman.

The woman reverted to her original form and fell to the ground with a thud. Mimi then ran up to Waki.

"WAKI! Your stomach!" Mimi cried as she began darting her head around frantically.

"Relax, I'm sure Stitch can sew me up, now give me a lif- LOOK OUT!"

Mimi barely managed to dodge a slice from the mysterious woman's headless body.

"Oh, did you really think beheading me would kill me? I only allowed myself to be killed anyway. My body can't be cut by mere mortals and knives," Mille's voice rang out.

Waki and Mimi turned to notice the headless body reattaching it's head.

"Remember our orders, do not damage the place too much, the subject will require a place to suffer," a flamboyant woman sneered.

The woman wore mismatched shoes and socks as well as a multicolered and pattered shirt and pants. The right half of her head was completely shaved while the left half was permed and the middle was a long ponytail which reached her ankles.

"CH1-M3R4, didn't orders say to remain on standby?" Mille asked.

"I completed my duty and have come to ensure you fulfill yours," CH1-M3R4 glared.

"I can kill her, I don't have any lingering attachments to her, I mean, I already betrayed her and Quadratica already."

The last line sent a chill down Mimi's spine. "Y- You aren't really Mille, are you?" she trembled.

"Codename: Millionbøf, master of disguise. Though ever since I buddied up with the Roboborg union, my espionage capabilities have skyrocketed," Mille sneered.

"Roboborg!? Shit, Rika mentioned that once," Waki groaned as she stood up.

"So you know of us, in that case, you will be eliminated first," CH1-M3R4 glared as she charged at Waki.

The right side of her face suddenly split off and sprouted an electrical horn, but remained connected to CH1-M3R4 via an electrical tube. The split face then stabbed it's horn into Waki's face, slashing her left cheek and exposing her mouth. CH1-M3R4's ponytail then transformed into a metallic snake and shoved itself through the hole in Waki's stomach before beginning to constrict her. CH1-M3R4 then opened her mouth on her primary face.

"I feel heat, so she's gonna burn my head off, well not today!" Waki thought as she managed to throw her poison needles into CH1-M3R4's mouth.

"Resistance is futile," CH1-M3R4 coldly stated.

Waki grinned and proceeded to throw all her metal weapons into CH1-M3R4's mouth.

"Resistance is futile, initiating blowtorch breath protocol," CH1-M3R4 coldly stated as fire began to erupt from her mouth.

Suddenly, the fire stopped as Waki began to grin.

"Throat has been blockaded, commencing repair," CH1-M3R4 stated as she aimed her detached face towards her mouth and fired a laser beam from it's horn at her sealed throat.

"Shit, so I guess you can't suffocate or get poisoned, well I'm screwed," Waki sighed as tears began to pour out of her eyes. "Mimi, take care of Rika, and tell Matcha, I love her, and thank her for making me want to live."

Mimi stared in horror as both Waki, and CH1-M3R4 suddenly went up in a mini explosion.

"The hell!? Oi, CH1-M3R4, you copy!?" Mille shouted.

As the fire subsided a bit, CH1-M3R4's split face fell out of it. "ERROR! ERROR! 404 ERROR! ERROR ERROR ERROR-"

Smash!

Waki then emerged from the fire heavily burned and as she smashed CH1-M3R4's second face to bits.

"Heh, guess I've still got some life," Waki smiled as she clutched the hole in her stomach.

"Waki!? Y- You're alive!?" Mimi gasped.

"How did you cause an explosion?" Mille glared.

"Why would I tell you? It could be useful for beating you," Waki grinned as she staggered towards Mimi.

Mille glared but immediately smiled as one of the customers that had been sitting in the restaurant ran up to Waki and stabbed her in the heart.

"Seems I was able to disguise my trap," Mille sneered.

All the customers that were currently in the restaurant suddenly transformed into cyborgs, including the one that stabbed Waki.

"Sorry Mimi, I didn't notice," Waki groaned as her body went limp and she fell to the ground with a thud.
