The Gun Smith Cats story
Well, after reading Lee Xiaoyu's entry in my guestbook, I decided to make two versions, one german and one english. You should look at the german one too, for there can be found some more pictures. Zur deutschen Version
Nastassja Ladinov.
Born 1961 in Kiev, Ukraine. When she appears in Gunsmith Cats she is about 35 years old. She was in the russian Army, in Spetsnaz, which is a russian special force. Ladinov left the russian Army as Major to work as a freelance assassin.
Thanks to russian Army she is educated in a lots of subjects, like she speaks fluently english, and too in tecniques of hand-to-hand combat or "silence killing".
Seems that Nastassja Ladinov (aka Natasha Radinov in the english version) dies in the year 1993, killed by six bullets of Rally Vincents gun.

Ladinov wears a kevlar coat reaching to her knees and she is able to hide a few guns, knifes, ammunition and even a small axe! Her favourite arm is a special knife which can fire bullets and can be shot out of the handle.
Major Nastassja Ladinov
She appears first in Gunsmith Cats Chapter 02 (and disappears in chapter 03). An evil politician, Edward Heintz, brought her to Canada, to get some things done for him.
In Canada her first task is to kill an officer there. Its not really hard for her and she gets Heroin as payment. She is about to disappear when Heintz calls again to give her new instructions. For extra payment he offers her an other job.
She smiles and asks: "Murder someone?"
"Does she have to pick up that stupid knife of hers every time she uses it?"  (the jerk who was working for Haints)
A few days later. Rally and May come form a visit at the safehouse. On their way home there suddenly drives a red Mercedes towards them, full speed, and the driver is not willing to drive to the side to let Rally pass.
Rally turns the steering wheel and drives up on the hill next to the street, avoiding a crash. The cars pass each other and for a short moment the eyes of the two drivers meet. Ladinov smiles.
The moment goes by and Ladinov is driving on, while Rally needs to stop her car, angry as hell. "Fucking punk!" she yells. "I will not forget your ugly face!"
Nastassja Ladinov has won this first duel.
In the safehouse...
The red mercedes stop ins front of the ATF safehouse. Ladinov gets out of her car, wearing dark sunglasses and a black coat.
The assassin enters the safehouse, smiling. She cuts the first policemans neck, leaving him there to die. Next station is the video room. She breaks the door and fires at the guys in there. Someone fires at her but her bulletproof coat saves her from being hurt. Its a really cools scene when she lifts her arm and fires at the poor guy. She kills the last policeman and then goes to her business, which is killing Washington.
When she opens her coat to take out the small axe we can have a look at her... equipment. Whoa its shocking! Anyways, she breaks the door and finally kills Washington. The background music is very great!! That scene is one of my favourites!
Ladinov enters "her" safehouse. She gets of her coat (and when she tries to hang it on the wall it falls down and smashes the chair..) On the table there is information on her new victims, which are Rally and May.
The phone rings and she starts talking to Heintz. She tells him that the heroin he gave her could be useful back in russia. And she asks who will be the fourth victim. She smiles and hangs up the phone.
Kidnapping.
Ladinov followed Rally and May. She awaits a good moment to kill Rally. She points with her knife at the american bounty hunter but in that moment someone shoots her arm and the knife misses its target. Ladinov is not injured since she was protected by the coat, but her arm hurts and she leaves the scene.

While Rally thinks she is save, Ladinov moves towards May. She surprises the girl and since the police arrives, kidnaps her to kill her somewhere else. May screams and alerts Rally. Ladinov gets May into her car, Rally into the cobra and hunting after the russian bounty hunter.
Ladinov is already sure about victory, when May, tied up in the backsead, wakes up. Rally is driving right behind Ladinovs car. When May is awake and got rid of the rope she jumps on Ladinov. The car starts to slide and Rally knows that May is awake. She starts the music "lets dance crazy". 
While Ladinov puts futile efforts in getting rid of Rally, May starts preparing a bomb at the backside. The russian woman drives on the freeway but not even her risky style of driving makes Rally give up.
So Ladinov decides to do it an other way. She takes out a weapon and points it at Rally. But the rising sun is blinding her. When she is able to open her eyes again she realizes a huge truck in front of her car. So Ladinov streches her head out of the car, opens her eyes wide and fires at the trucks wheel. The Truck is loosing control and moves in  a position blocking the street, after Ladinovs car passed by. Rally escapes closely and still hunts Ladinov. The russian assassin starts a second try and this time shoots the front window of the cobra. But even this doesnt stop Rally.
The third try ends up as a desaster. Rally shoots Ladinovs Hand, and the gun fires one more shot.
Ladinov is staring at her hand. Her own gun caused this damage on the back of her hand. But that wound is not even the only one! Ladinov realizes something red. She is shocked when she realizes is is her earring!! She moves her trembling hand to her left ear. Rally shot her left ear!! Ladinov has never been injured before, this is making her incredibly furious.
She turns around where May sits, pulls out her knife and screams: "
YOU ARE DEAD!!!" She now discovers the bomb May was preparing. Rage is controlling her and she is out for revenge. She fires her knife, but May can escape. And while Ladinov tries to get control of her car, May counts down. "5...4...3..2..1..ZERO!!" The bomb explodes and May is thrown out of the car.
And while Becky gets May into the car, Ladinov is driving directly towards an open drawbridge. She cannot stop her car any more and it drives over the open bridge, explodes and falls into the chicago river.
