@LiveandSound It does have a very dramatic opening and some comedic and darkly sinister potential. But, it just doesn't seem right killing a main character just to fit this girl in. Also, a thief is not the same as a murderer and the girl's life would really have to be threatened if she was going to kill someone, the worse the robots probably would do is send her to jail for a week or more, mostly since we haven't seen much evidence of capital punishment especially for thieves. Granted, I'm not a fan of killing MCs in general since once they're dead, they should be dead and it gets unrealistic if you keep bringing them back to life. The girl could instead knock Ruby uncouncious, drag her into the nearby alley, change clothes, tie Ruby up, then be there to pose for the robots (probably in the same amount of time it would have taken for the kill, drag, and change, knocking uncouncious would most likely take less time than killing), and then Yang comes and picks "Ruby" up to take her back to Beacon and then the girl is still trapped in the same situaiton with the added possibility of going back to Ruby as she awakens and has to figure out how to navigate the underground and get back to Beacon while being bound, having no weapon, and having no positive means of identification on her person to prove she's Ruby (or could go the amnisic route and have try to remember who she was and somehow stumble her way back to Beacon).
