Description
An enemy from Hornet Man's stage. Will start as two pieces of a scissor that attempt to combine by
smashing into each other, and once combined, the full scissor will dash at Mega Man until it goes
offscreen. It then loops back around the screen for another run at the player.
This enemy is a bit strange, so it's placed a little weirdly. Despite it being shown in the editor
as the whole scissor, when this object at its placed position is spawned, it will come already
seperated, just to make things a bit more intuitive.
