Killer (Hit-Girl) aka Mindy McCready, the brutal comic book assassin Kick-ass«.
original story
Mindy's father, determined to make his daughter's life interesting, kidnapped her from her mother. He inspired her that he was a former cop, and her mother was brutally killed by mafiosi. Instead of playing dolls with her girlfriends, since infancy, Mindy trained with her dad, who set out to make a killer out of a superhero daughter.
The grown girl knew how to handle almost all edged weapons and was ruthless and cruel. Mindy avenged her mother, not realizing she was alive.
Mindy's dad (big fan of comics, by the way) took on the alias Big Daddy, and Mindy's Hit-Girl. Having made themselves costumes, they began to instill fear in crime bosses cities.
For mass killings, Killer used katanas, sometimes a flamethrower and a Glock 23.
Once Hit-Girl saved the disguised hero Kick-Ass from death. At a time when all the heroes were making a name for themselves on the Internet, nothing was known about Hit-Girl.
The girl persuaded Daddy to join the unfortunate hero and the father agreed, believing that such a company would be fun for his daughter.
Although Kick-Ass (Dave Lizewski) compared Mindy to Rambo, the girl loved Hello Kitty, comics, films by Clint Eastwood and John Woo.
When Kick-Ass brought Mindy and Daddy together with another hero, Red Freak, he turned out to be the son of mafia boss John Genovese. Genovese lured Daddy and Hit-Girl into a trap that only Mindy managed to escape.
The killer decided to avenge her father's death. With the help of Kick-Ass, she broke into the Genovese residence and killed the mobsters. After that, Mindy was finally able to grieve over her father's death. She asked Kick-Ass to hug her.
Hit-Girl has become a street legend.
Soon, after learning that her mother is alive and living with Marcus, an investigator, an old friend of her father, Mindy returned to her having found a real family.
In the meantime, Killer tried to teach Kick-Ass how to fight. Together they were going to join the team of heroes, but Marcus, who knew about secret affairs girls, forbade her to contact scumbags.
Hit-Girl gets back in business when Motherfucker's (ex-Red Ugar) team attends the funeral of Kick-Ass' father. In a further fight against a team of villains, Mindy was seriously injured. She stole the cops' car and drove away from them for a long time until she was detained. The girl was charged with 60 murders. Mindy was sentenced to imprisonment in a maximum security prison, where she immediately began to restore her order.
The girl managed to escape, after killing a lot of corrupt policemen. After that, she became an international killer, deciding to take on a student little boy who was bullied by his parents.
