Action
[Golden Tiger is not, by any means, a brilliant strategist. He does, on the other hand, have two years experience maneuvering around boardrooms, and that's taught him more than a few things. The first being that when an opportunity presents itself, you take it. So with the spandex squad all in a tizzy after Doctor Doofus's little song and dance, now's the perfect time to get out there and make a name for himself in this town.
It comes to the surprise of almost no one when a giant robot crab comes crashing through the wall of the Venture City Central Bank, trailed by a regular platoon of hired thugs. The Tiger himself is on the scene, of course, standing atop that crushing crustacean, arms folded. The room erupts in chaos. A few security guards try and rush the goons, but they're mowed down in seconds. Tiger just laughs and swishes his coat, letting the speakers in his mask carry his voice through the building.]
Alright, nobody make a move! This here is a robbery. Take everything ya got and dump it all in the bags. Everything for the Golden Tiger!
[On cue, the thugs hold out a collection of burlap sacks, some of which have dollar signs painted on them. Need to shoot for authenticity here.]
Don't forget about those safety deposit boxes, too! C'mon people, let's hustle!
[One by one, the tellers, guards, and even some of the patrons step up and start to unload cold hard cash into the bags. So many supervillains swing by this place, they all know the procedure by now. Everything's going just as planned. If one of those rubes in tights showed up, everything would fall to pieces.
That'd just be awful, right?
Right.]

The giant gunscythe makes it a little better, though.]
Guess we'll just have to settle, then. Dōtonbori Robo! Show 'em how it's done!
[The sides of the crab start to unfold, revealing a brace of massive laser cannons, all poised and ready to fire. Which they do, in a display eerily reminiscent of a Pink Floyd show.
Overkill? Probably. Does he care? Hell no.]

[ It's hard to tell if her exclamation is out of appreciation for the awesome lasers, or shock from... having giant lasers fired at her.
Thankfully, once those babies came out, the people in the bank had the peace of mind to get the heck out of dodge. They already handed over their money anyway, so it's not like anybody's stop them, right?
Which meant that Ruby had no qualms about dodging the thing. She actually used her scythe to fire off its own shots to add to her speed, giving her more speed and maneuverability than any normal should have. First up in the air to avoid the initial shot, then off to the side and land neatly on a wall, then leap off and use another shot to speed towards his... Dōtonbori Robo. A sped up scythe-slash ought to be enough to sever one of the cannons, right?
Well, her scythe could cut through normal robots easily enough, but this guy's was a bit more tricked out. Maybe it wouldn't?
Either way, Ruby had the chance to grumble as she lashed out with her scythe. ] And I was trying not to hurt the robot!
