Chapter 1: blood-stained wallpaper
Chapter Text
Before Uzi could pull away from N opening up her wings she felt this force manipulate her mouth open and her wings to hold N in place, her body lunging forward to his chest, forced to charge right through and chomp down on what must have been Nās heart. His visor now bore an unfortunate omen: FATAL ERROR. Soon her UI started glitching, it wouldnāt be long before Uzi lost consciousness.
When she awoke, she was lying on the snow, and strewn across the sparkling white grounds was patches of delicious oil, Nās arms, lower body, and head sprinkled around as well.
Uzi stood up and walked over to Nās severed head and picked it up, āIām a monster⦠you were just trying your best⦠I had no control⦠Iām so sorry Nā Uzi whispered and almost cried. Putting on Nās camp hat despite being on the verge of tears āyou wonāt be forgotten, dear friendā
āGOOD JOB, perfect hostā a robotic voice resonated from the depths of Uziās mind
Ā
That was 3 months agoā¦
Now Uzi is digging through Vās code, desperately trying to get V to move in her mind. She still gets flashbacks to that night. Uziās fingers were skittering across the keyboard like decomposer roaches, watching code flying past, occasionally flicking her optics to her second monitor to see if thereās any update on Vās condition. Eventually, after scanning through a couple thousand lines of code, Uzi got V awake and moving. It was weird, seeing V like this, just a normal worker, well normal was a bit of a stretch as a maid outfit is definitely not normal, the poor things this drone must have seen.
As V woke up and looked around, she spotted the vessel Uzi was currently using, a destroyed worker body left in this library āoh, oh no, how unfortunate, you poor thingā V softly spoke as she picked up Uziās temporary armless body āI wasnāt aware you were still working, Iāll take you to Tessa and sheāll get you all fixed up. She will absolutely love the colour of your eyes, I just canāt look away from their striking purple hue and how it blends into this yellow almost seamlessly and their unique shapes are just to die for and-ā this cannot be the same drone that kills workers with a smile on her face and giggling throughout, like how did this become the merciless killer Uzi knows as V-X00100000.
āno, no, no, go down the trapdoor to the basementā Uzi points down to the basement door below them with her vesselās foot.
V placed her finger over Uziās vesselās mouth āshh, no need to fear, youāre in good hands, your code must be bugging ou-ā this caused Uzi to bite Vās finger ā-www, a biter, are we? N was like that too before Tessa put that ātoxic positivityā personality trait into his codeā
āV⦠Iām trying to help youā
Ā V started walking away from the basement āAnd you did a great job, now you need new arms because your other ones seem to have been ripped offā V tapped Uziās vessel right between the eyes
Uzi continued to plea with V, despite her stubbornness āV, I think you need to go into that basement NOW.ā It was like trying to convince a WDF member to not touch a single card for a whole day. A truly Sisyphean task
Despite Uziās attempts to convince V, she continued to be reassuring āI assure you; Tessa wonāt hurt you, nor will her proceduresā petting Uziās vesselās head, it was quite nice get a grip on yourself Uzi, youāre here to restore Vās memories, not get petted and soothed
Uzi braced herself and gently raised her voice āV, I didnāt want to have to resort to this, but these are memories and youāre kinda unconscious and hooked up to my computer in my room right now, and so, to gain your memories back in full, you need to enter the scary basementā
V knowingly replied āah the classic āThinks Theyāre A Hacker And Tries To Lure Someone Into The Basement To Kill Themā bug, I know it well, J had it before Tessa turned her into a thorn in Nās sideā
āTessaās in the basementā Uzi said defeatedly.
āWell why didnāt you say so?ā V sounded shocked and took an immediate 180 degree turn and started taking the exact path as before but now Uzi could see just how well V knew these halls as she whirled through the maze without missing a beat.
Eventually they got back to the library and the trapdoor, the walls now plastered with blood, oil, and maroon flesh woven across the floor, walls, bookcases, and ceiling. Suspended in a massive mound of flesh on the wall behind the trapdoor was this partially destroyed worker head bearing millions of sharp needlepoint fangs, as well as a ribcage-like structure, but it was all one solid, spiky plate, a rib plate almost, and disassembly drone wings. V let Uzi down onto the floor and cautiously lifted up the trapdoor. The caution was immediately warranted as what popped up from the trapdoor could only be described as a nightmare, a long cylindrical tube with the front edge lined with fangs, and a singular cold yellow optic.
The tube spoke in a familiar robotic voice, a voice Uzi has heard before, three months ago, on the night she was forced to kill N, āJUMPSCARE. GRAB, crushā Uziās vessel was grabbed by this claw that suddenly popped up with the ugly cylinder and crushed Uziās vessel like it was a tin can, the last sound Uzi heard before she was booted out of Vās mind was Vās cry
āNEWWW FRIEEEEND, NOOOOO!ā
Itās a good thing that Uzi already worked out how to give herself a new vessel, the only eligible body left was the same camera, which is stuck in a birdcage. Once Uzi was back in Vās mind, V was strapped down to a disarmed electric chair with a hammer about to go down on a chisel which would have digitally lobotomised V, with muffled unholy screams of terror coming from upstairs.
āwoah!ā Uzi yelled as the hammer went hurtling into Vās visor, luckily she had moved the chisel before it would have burrowed into Vās head.
āhey wait, I do remember you⦠GET OUT OF MY HEAD PURPLE THING!ā V commanded just as Uzi was kicked out yet again. V woke up in her normal body hyperventilating like she just woke up from a nightmare, Uzi spun around in her chair to face V, normally after a moment of such vulnerability V would be angry or insult Uzi, but she just sat there, hyperventilating. Uzi got up from her chair and walked across the paper-covered metal floor over to where V was sitting, curled up into a little ball.
Uzi didnāt know what to do, sheās never had to deal with something like this. She remembered how, in the memories, V tried to soothe her and calm her down, so Uzi tried something similar, reaching out her hand to touch V on her head and gently petting it down, holding V tight, listening to what she has to say
āso many saws⦠scalpels⦠there were so many scalpels⦠my faceā Uzi heard all of her worries and met them with kindness, a feeling alien to her.
Uzi grew her wings and gently encapsulated them āshhh, its ok, Iām here, those nasty evil saws and scalpels canāt hurt you anymore, and if they do come to hurt you, Iāll destroy them before they can even touch youā Uziās reassuring voice felt like a lie, but itās what V needed, and someone has to be the group therapist after she was forced to kill N. V leaned in and nestled herself gently into Uziās chest.
This gave Uzi time to think, was the robotic voice in Vās mind connected to the same voice Uzi heard 3 months ago, who or what is Cyn, and why did V call her that in their fight that very same night, are they connected, more things to add to the ceiling investigation board later.
Chapter 2: PLOT ARMOUR EXPERIMENT LOG-05/a brand-new U
Summary:
Cyn has started experimenting a while ago
these are those experiments
Chapter Text
āOH, NS. WE ARE MAKING THIS U MATCH TWO OF YOUā Cyn said as the selected U, U-2, had a claw clamped over her body, scrambling to get away from Cynās clutches āYOU GET TO BE BRAND NEW AGAIN, LUCKY youā Cyn tapped U-2 on the peak of her mouth area. Taking her away into the med bay of this old human bunker.
āPlease Cyn, reconsiderā¦ā N-2 pled, N-3 had to turn a blind eye to all of this, despite every circuit in his body telling him that he should help U, he knew that if he messed with Cyn, he would be put on control duty for at least a month, and he could do without being-
Before he could finish his thought, N-3ās vision faded to blackā¦
Ā
N-3 woke up, bleary-eyed, confused as to what is happening, slumped down on the oil-slick floor next to N-2 and U-1, still asleep with a background noise of squelching. Through the blur, he spotted movement on the tables, what he could barely make out to be Cyn sawing and cutting through U-2ās body. Oil and sparks were flying everywhere. N-3 wished he never blinked away the camera error⦠he can now see properly⦠he regrets having camerasā¦
As Cynās claws brutally tore material out of U-2ās torso and tossed it asideā¦
As Cyn melted U-2ās torso shut with a blowtorch. The smell of burnt oil, fabric, plastic, silicone, and flesh hung heavy in the airā¦
As Cyn wrapped tentacles around U-2ās arms and pulled them from U-2ās bodyā¦
As Cyn grabbed arms that looked similar to N-1 and N-2ās and shoved them into U-2ās empty arm gash with no care for the material
As Cyn hacked at U-2ās underside until no scraps were left and N-3 accidently got a look at flesh, pulsating and beating as one, was that also inside himā¦?
In the darkness he could swear he saw a little purple light, marked by fearā¦
Cyn melted more of U-2ās figure to fit some form N-3 didnāt knowā¦
Cyn grabbed a pair of lower legs and shoved them into U-2ās gaping underside, the tail clinking uselessly against the floorā¦
It was horrifying but N-3 couldnāt look away if he tried. It was hypnotizing in the most grotesque wayā¦
When Cyn ripped off U-2ās face and N-3 could see hundreds of shiny white-ish spheres with a purple-coloured ring around a black dotā¦
When Cyn cut past the weird, squishy spheres which burst and added to the growing pool of fluids belowā¦
When Cyn cut open a hole in the top of U-2ās head, all the way down to the base of her visorā¦
When Cyn rummaged around inside U-2ās head, shifting wires, grabbing intact spheres and putting them in the big crescent holeā¦
When Cyn shoved some special cover on top of these squishy spheres and closed U-2ās head up againā¦
All new visorā¦
She was up and running
All new U-2ā¦
Cyn spoke to the mortified, shaking N-3, āDO YOU LIKE her⦠DO YOU LIKE THE BRAND NEW U⦠I THINK SHE CAME OUT EXTRA murderous⦠TEST timeā and just like that, Cyn was gone. The U-2 N-3 knew is gone and he was left alone with the shell.
Itās eyes were fused together in a single cross. N-3 desperately wanted to wake the others up, but under the gaze of this gargantuan monstrosity, all N-3 could do was shrivel up into a small cowering lump in the corner, optics wider than they had ever been before.
āIncapacitated morsels, my favourite mealā¦ā U-2 said in a way that shook N-3 to his core, U-2 licked her lips, and showed off her freshly sharpened, unused, pristine, so pristine in-fact, that N-3 could see his own frightened face reflected in her teeth. He knew it deep in his circuitsā¦
This would be the day he dies.
he tried to put on his saddest, wettest, most pathetic look to try to make U-2 normal again, to talk to the real U-2, not this horribly mangled monster of Cynās creation standing in front of himā¦
it didnāt workā¦
U-2 opened up the iris mechanism where her wrists would be, and what slowly trucked out of those quad doorsā¦
A gun, he knew that N-1 and N-2 have been forced to make similar things by Cyn for these eldritch experiments, he remembers them calling themā
Ā
YOUāRE DEAD, IDIOT

N-1 didnāt remember falling asleep, so when he woke up, it was a shock to say the least.
When he processed the whole thing, N-2 was nowhere to be seen, he must have been taken off for testing, he is the control group for Cynās tests on U after allā¦
Now that N-1 thinks about it, N-3 and Uzi are gone too
He feels like heās forgetting a really important detail that no matter how hard he tries, he just canāt remember, and whenever heās around U he feels a vague ghost of feelings such as remorse and sadnessā¦

Chapter 3: Down the pit, into the labs
Summary:
nothing bad will happen here :)
Chapter Text
āBased on my momās conspiratorial rambling, there seems to be some side effects to my powers, such as possession and randomly becoming murderousā Uzi ranted ābut there is a way out of this, a patch held in a cross-shaped USB, it says here that the best place to install it is right in the face, and that I will keep all the good parts of my powers, with most of the evil parts permanently banished, except for the hungerā
āSo, where is this eldritch miracle cure?ā V asked.
Uzi replied āin the cabin fever labs. Thereās even a drawing of the best entrance, caused during the core collapse, see if you know where it is, we need to take the keybug with us to get down into the labsā Uzi handed V the map, V seemed to squint to look at the map as if she had trouble seeing.
āLike Iād tell you the exact location, but its nearby the oil rig that we could see from that campsite we went to 3 months agoā
āgreeeaaatā Uzi sarcastically groaned.
Ā
They flew together most of the way, Uzi used this as an opportunity to learn how to fly, land, and deal with crashing into the snow, while V just laughed while the purple drone wobbled around the sky. As they were getting near to the oil rig, they spotted a small altercation below. Unfortunately, Uzi had forgotten when to coast and when to flap, losing control of her body and falling into the middle of the altercation.
āWhat the-ā the stranger screamed in surprise and shock, as if they had never seen a worker drone fall from the sky like a meteorite. When the snow cleared and Uzi can see who was fighting, she identified Doll, J, and a helmeted human-shaped stranger.
Here comes V, gliding down from the sky gracefully āYeah, thatās my worker, an idiot as alwaysā
āWay to rub it in my faceā Uzi said annoyedly, getting up from the ground, brushing snow off her body.
āYouā¦ā J said as if Uziās very existence annoyed her, āwhat are you doing here, toaster?ā
āTo make sure that I donāt go and kill everyoneā Uzi replied as if it was the most normal thing in the world.
Uzi angrily asked the stranger āwho are you, human, why are the likes of your kind here anymore?ā
Ā āTessa, Iām here to fix buggy workers and collect some samples for the higher-ups.ā Tessa introduced āand to deal with Cyn, who disappeared from earth, and lastly sicked you two and N on the human exoplanets, speaking of N, where is he?ā Tessa looked around as if trying to find any sign of the absolute beanpole of a disassembly drone, Uzi pat the back of her head down and winced, V was looking to the sky and whistling along to the tune of the wind.
Uzi took off Nās camp hat, looked to the ground, took a deep breath, and recounted āsomething took control, I had no choice, heās dead, and no oneās coming to replace himā
āAw noo, I liked him, was excited to see him too, I could put a word in and get a replacement, if you wantā Tessa sadly said as they joined Uzi in staring at the snow in mourning.
āTch, good riddance, I never needed him anywayā J offhandedly remarked. Uzi whipped her neck around to Jās direction.
Uzi sprouted her wings and grabbed J by the shoulders, she bit back ādonāt you ever talk about him like that again, and if I ever catch you making a similar remark about himā¦ā Uzi pulled her in close and whispered āyouāll get a chance to apologise right to his faceā
āWHAT?! THE HECK!? the keybug!ā V reacted as Doll had already teleported past Uzi, running through the oil rig, keybug in hand, jumping into the hole.
āAaaaand, we needed thatā¦ā Tessa defeatedly sighed, ādown the hole I guessā
J and Tessa flew over to the hole in the oil rig, V and Uzi were to follow suit, Uzi totally didnāt almost lose her footing and fall down the hole because of the thin nature of the metal beams, causing V to giggle quietly to herself, but the echo of the rig caused the volume of the giggle to increase, so Uzi heard her laugh, teasing out a half-smile from the angsty drone. āWhy doll? why involve her? whatās happening to- herā
āShe believes that the humans did something to her parents down here, gave her generational powers, which some, like her, see as a curse. None as powerful as what I hear you inherited thoughā¦ā
āHow⦠how do you know thatā¦?ā Uzi now worried.
āyouād be surprised at how often J talks and rants about you āI swear, that toaster is evil, that toaster was so strong, so strong, that kick had way too much power, why did she stab me with my own tail, in my foot no less, that gun was a piece of work too, I canāt wait to see the look on her face when I learn all about herā it seems she may fancy you, she took screenshots of her own memories of your fights, printed them out, and decorated a wall of our pod with themā Tessa gossiped
J seethed with anger āyou little⦠THOSE WERE PREPERATIONS FOR THE NEXT TIME IāD SEE THAT FRIGGING TOASTER AGAIN, NOT A CRUSHā
Uzi smugly looked over at J āyou have a crush on me,ā Uzi cackled, āyou have a crush on me, of all the dronesā
āThey were in the shape of a heart, Jā¦ā Tessa was laughing now āand thatās not even the funniest part, on two separate occasions, I saw her find a purple pen or a gun in the snow and get all protective over it, even sleeping with them, hugging them tight, like a stuffed animal, I swear, sometimes I thought I could hear her saying your name in various odd ways through the walls of the podā
J sprouted her wings, floated up, turned her back to the two gossiping engineers, raised her upper arms, and said āyou all can do this without meā
āJ⦠Iām sorry, I shouldnāt have told your secret, just help me out down there, I need the extra pair of hands down thereā Tessa said before diving headfirst right into the hole.
V flew down after Tessa to save them, meanwhile Uzi glid to the girder near the bottom of the pit super awesomely, swooping over, under, though, and across the debris flawlessly, and totally didnāt cutely stumble on the landing, J then pretentiously followed suit. V and Uzi looked around using their torch-arm and tail respectively, finding a safe space to advance further and beckoned the stubborn stick-in-the-mud to follow.
They began to search the area, V and Tessa charging forth together, Uzi and J following behind. By this point V has let go of Tessa. They passed by the unfortunate remains of many disassembly drones along as they explored. Tessa kept on stopping to pick up good parts out of the wreckage surrounding them, indistinctly whispering, sometimes Uzi could swear that she heard her name in a positive tone, she could even catch an āoh, this will be perfect for Uziās modsā but only after some modifications to her settings, she didnāt know what that could mean. Tessa was offloading these parts to J, by the time they had gotten past all the corpses, Tessa had gathered enough parts to make a whole disassembly drone, Uzi could only suspect what they were for. They arrived at a crossroads with a sign hanging above it, V bumped Uzi with her elbow, bringing to Uziās attention the sign pointing to the secret elevator.
V mouthed āwhy would they label thatā
āI donāt knowā Uzi mouthed back.
āI know a shortcut to the elevatorā Tessa proudly announced to the crowd of 3 āIf we head towards the emergency assembly area, we should be able to get there a whole 5 minutes faster, and if we run into any security, I should be able to control it, due to it being human-made security, and Iām a human, but itās highly unlikely as the sentinel regeneration bay is the opposite wayā
They walked down the destroyed and wrecked hallway to a staircase downwards off to the side, but the hallway continued on, and Tessa kept leading the disassembly drones and worker drone onwards through the unfamiliar metal straightaway, leading to a heavy, metal sliding door left open. Tessa led the group into the room, saying to V and J āI heard that the oil of the security here is quite unique, warmer and sweeter than worker oil, maybe you should try and get someā Tessa proceeded to guide V and J out the door, take the parts J was holding, rush over to the button for this door, and press it.
Chapter 4: back to basics
Notes:
i used my dnd skills of lets take an hour to open a door
Chapter Text
Tessa slammed the door in the faces of the two disassembly drones, cutting them off from the worldās cutest worker.
V and J both knew that going after the security system would be a bad idea, if the corpses in the hallway with warnings written in oil everywhere was any indication, āwe are not doing that,ā V stated
āAre you suggesting we break in?ā J inquired
āNo, I suggest we try to get the patch for Uziā V suggested
J sighed āthat somehow seems more stupidā
āWell do you have a better plan, we couldnāt break into a worker bunker when N was alive, and now weāre down a member, a member that you would have realised was quite useful if you ever treated him like a member of the team instead of an unpaid intern! You may have been high among Tessaās Favorites, but so was he, you became jealous because Tessa favoured him more!ā V argued.
āMy strong, smart, powerful purple drone is in there, she is dealing with robo-god knows what, Iām just trying to help her in a way that will affect her, instead of walking away under the guise of helping her, which is what got us stuck here IN THE FIRST PLACE!ā J yelled back.
āYEAH!? WELL, I LOVE HER TOO!ā V accidentally blurted out in a fit of rage.
J pried āWait⦠what? Iām not the only one?!ā V was confused; she had feelings?! For Uzi? Her new admin no less, now that sheās thinking back to 3 months ago, during their fight, when Uzi pinned her to that tree showing her hot fangs that could sink into Vās shell like a hot knife through butter or when Uzi pinned her to the ground and V got a good look at her gorgeous violet optics, she felt like her core was about to burst out of her chest, like she was nervous or scared, but at the same time V felt an odd sense of comfort at the display. Or just a couple of hours ago when she was resting her head on Uziās chest and V got to feel her perfect silky shiny purple hair, V felt this ball of unimaginable fluff below her core, was this a crush? Were these romantic feelings? She had no idea that they felt so horrible but at the same time so compelling, everyone acts as if they are desirable, something to chase after, why did they act that way? Why did they frame it like that? At least V isnāt alone in these thoughts.
āI guess not! So, how are we going to open this doorā V interjected, gesturing towards the door āI was thinking we push together and maybe weāll get it openā
āThat⦠just might work, letās try itā J placed her hands on the side of the door, V followed suit, positioning herself above J, āon three, one⦠two⦠three!ā they pushed together, grunting and pushing with all their might, trying to move it, but the only things moving were their feet. The door never moved at all. It just wouldnāt budge. They walked away from the door to hatch a new plan
āChainsaws?ā V suggested.
āNo, you canāt get them on the top, the shrapnel would have nowhere to go.ā J reasoned, ābut perhaps I could try to use my EMP.ā
āNo, you would take out Uziā V replied.
āyouāre right,ā J begrudgingly added āI guessā¦ā
āBut maybe we could slash through with our clawsā V continued
āThat wonāt work given that the corpses we saw outside had slash marks all over them, most likely due to the security, these doors seem to be designed to keep something out, presumably the security system, and given that this door has no slashes at all, we can presume that the doors are at least unbelievably resistant to slashes from claws stronger than ours, ergo that was a horrible idea Vā J overly explained.
V posited ābullets?ā
āMaybeā¦ā J answered, annoyed by the very idea āletās try itā¦ā the two retracted their hands, their nanites building them two semi-automatic guns each, these ones were quite boxy, with a long, straight clip jutting out from the bottom, except Vās had barrels very similar to Uziās gun.
āHuh, that little hacker knows a thing or two, must have slipped this amazing piece of craftsmanship into my arsenal while she was poking around my mindā V acknowledged, admiring the awe-inspiring work of art Uzi had done.
J reacted in fear, shuddering ājust, keep those things away from meā¦ā they both trained their guns on the impudent slab of metal, firing at will. Unfortunately, there were more bullet holes in the floor, ceiling, and walls than in the door. And the door persisted through Vās new semi-automatic magnetically-amplified-photon-converger armsā quick, weak 20 blasts before they needed to recharge for 30 minutes. āShould we try our tails?ā
āI donāt know, maybe?ā V unhelpfully answered as she strutted over to the sliding piece of cheap metal, she reared her tail up, ready to strike, looking for weak points.
Just as V sent her tail plunging downwards, the door slid open, revealing Uziās parts spread out across the room, alongside the scraps of her hoodieā¦
Chapter 5: those who cause agony
Notes:
one moment in this chapter may be a bit spicy so be careful about that
pay attention to the gore, it will come up later.
Chapter Text
āI heard that the oil of the security here is quite unique, warmer and sweeter than worker oil, maybe you should try and get some, this is a path only your worker can walkā Tessa proceeded to guide V and J out the door, take the parts J was holding, rush over to the button for this door, and press it, slamming the door in the faces of the two disassembly drones. Tessa put on this saccharine voice that, despite the tone, cloyed Uziās mind āUzi, sweetie, please lie down on the tableā Tessa politely asked, gesturing towards the repair bed.
Uzi, now panicked, queries, still standing, not moving towards the bed, āwh-what the hell is going onā¦? Wait⦠how did you know my name?ā
āUzi, do not ask questions you donāt need to know the answers to, I assure you, I wonāt hurt you, nor will my proceduresā Tessa tried to be reassuring, their voice sating some gnawing feeling that Uzi started feeling three months ago, she had forgotten all about it until it was gone āI know your CPU is firing on all cylinders, but you can trust me, no harm will come to you in my care, lie on the bedā
Uzi answered āNo thanksā
āFine then. Remember that you asked for this,ā Tessa threatened āWHEN WE MAKE youā that last voice was familiar, Uzi heard the same voice a couple of hours ago in Vās memories, as well as 3 months ago,
āCynā¦ā
Cyn horrifically chimed while unzipping their jumpsuit āNO TIME FOR INTRODUCTIONS Uziā¦ā Cyn took off their helmet āITS BED TIME.ā
Ā
Cyn grabbed Uzi from across the room with a tentacle, forcibly laying her down onto the surgical bed and securing the arm and leg restraints all at once. Armed with an axe and some rusty garden pruners Cyn got to work, hacking off Uziās lower half.
Cyn chimed āOPEN UP, perfect hostā¦ā carving open her chest to reveal her core, wearing a big fanged grin like the human skin, tossing it aside, now Uzi can see her transformation from a whole new perspective. It was a horrifying sight, seeing her own face get viscerally torn off ready for a new one to be put in its place, watching as her head gets cut open by this flesh-wearing maniac, body completely reshaped, her wings clipped, new ones shoved into their sockets, hips and legs added, new face added, her old hair cut up to make room for some new headband, tail utterly destroyed, new stinging tail in its place, arms hacked off for new ones, gyroscope inserted, white spheres inside her head moved around, her dead batteries hoodieās front in tatters, her combat boots and socks remained intact but unwearable due to her new legs.
She wants to be backā¦
Back before all this ever happenedā¦
Still living with N and Vā¦
Happyā¦
Or to even be able to hold V close right nowā¦
That nightmare began to approach Uzi, stuck as a core, picking her up. āDONāT TELL THE OTHERS WHAT YOU KNOW, OR I WILL MAKE YOU KILL themā Cyn threatened, dropping her into her body. She felt as every vein and cable in her body plugged themselves into her core.
Feeling her sensors reactivate one by one, an overwhelming flood of information rushed to Uziās core, seeing all the way around herself in three different light levels, itās like staying inside a bunker your whole life, scared to open the door, and when you do, the sun is right there, almost blinding you with its light, but at the same time⦠the world is bleaker and darker than your imagined utopia.
The first thing Uzi did in her new body was struggle against the leather belts holding her down, pulling on the belts restraining her arms, and, as if by thought alone, her hands retracted into her arms, feeling a shifting, bubbling liquid conforming to a solid shape inside Uziās arm. What had emerged from the iris doors were some familiar-looking metallic claws, Uzi curled her claws inwards, trying to reach the straps, unfortunately she was unable to reach them due to the unexpected girth of her arms.
āYOU DONE?ā Cyn questioned. Just then a pop-up window opened right over Uziās visor:
Absolute Solver has rebooted
Would you like to free yourself user UZI-MYKX U-X10000000 (device nickname darkXwolf17)?
Ā > Yes
Ā No
Selected Yes
Uziās left hand cracked and dislocated itself into the normal solver hand position, except instead of the usual symbol floating above in soothing violet light, a cold neon yellow circle, encapsulating a void darker than Vanta black, a cold yellow āNULLā within its borders, then her wrist snapped upwards, catapulting the orb towards the restraint on that arm.
The location it had landed had been removed, as if it was undone or was never there in the first place. She then used her left claw to get underneath her right armās belt and slice it free; she then was able to slip the leg restraints due to her new foot-less limbs.
Uzi got up from the live dissection table, feeling her new legs; that looked exactly like Vās, except they were more scratched up; easily touch the ground from where she was sitting, an unusual phenomenon for the previously short drone. She stood up perfectly stable, as if she wasnāt standing on metal stubs. She gently touched the seams where Cyn cut her open to rearrange veins and flesh. Oil rubbed off onto her fingertips. Cyn did a shoddy job at welding Uzi back together. She could feel as if the flesh and sinew in her body was the only thing holding her frontal plate on, rising and falling with her coreās pulse.
When she remembered to look where she saw Cyn last, nearby the hospital curtains drenched by the massive oil splatter no doubt caused by Uziās mutilation, nothing was thereā¦
No haunting skin wearing maniacsā¦
No eldritch horrorsā¦
Just nothingā¦
āKEEP THE SECRET, Uā Cynās threatening voice left echoing in her processors, as she pushed the door 1 open button, watching the former glowing red button turn green. The door clanked into place, the locking echoed throughout the whole underground complex, but there they stood, V and J, V even had her tail poised right up to stab anything that gets in her way just like old times. Uzi ran over to the two drones, watching their expressions of horror morph into expressions of relief and watching their cores try to take in Uziās new form and struggling to compute as they were quickly overshadowed by the once-short Uzi Doorman. Now Uzi can also take in her whole size.
āLook at what Iāve becomeā¦ā Uzi said, looking at her claws and body, almost as if she was mourning her former self, her tone quickly changing to confidence with a loud voice ābut also I can now change my hands to these super cool claws!ā
āOh, thank goodness, you scared me purple th-ā V sighed, looking Uzi up and down, for some reason however Vās eyes seemed to linger at Uziās chest, eye-level to the once-tall disassembly drone, leaving her speechless except for one whispered word, ābreastsā. Meanwhile J has fallen to the floor with a high temperature warning and a goofy, lovestruck smile plastered to her face.
Uzi first laughed, then she was curious to see what would happen. āHey~ tchchk eyes up here V~ā Uzi said seductively.
āH-hold me⦠hold me close to your chest⦠crush my head between your legs and chestā as if on command V began to melt, her face morphing into the same temperature warning and goofy grin as J, resulting in Uzi scooping the two melting drones up, tossing them both over her shoulder, and backtracked all the way back to the crossroads where Cyn originally lead them astray with that so-called short-cut.
Now progressing down the unfamiliar hallway to the elevator. The ground, walls, and ceiling changed from the metal panels of a bunker to this brown stuff that looks similar to snow, but stuck together a lot better, if it was snow, it would have caved in by now. Just by looking at it, her new sensors had identified it as poorly carved rock. This rocky tunnel periodically was supported by wooden beams, each having a lantern hanging from it, the flame has long since died out.
Eventually Uzi saw the antique fossil of an elevator descend in the distance, and, as if the want for a burst of speed was enough, Uzi sprouted her brand-new wings, looking like normal disassembly drone wings except for the purple-Ish grey flesh enveloping the main articulate points of the limbs, but as soon as she flexed her wings, the flesh immediately tore and started to grow back, only for it to be ripped again, she also had webbing in-between the blades. Even though her wings felt like they had doubled in wingspan, they could expand just enough so that Uzi could fly through the corridor.
Applying what she knew about flight didnāt help in this situation, as she went flying into the wall, accidentally rebooting V and Jās software. The crash caused the elevator to have a floor inputted and slowly wheel itself all the way down to the bottom of the elevator shaft.
At the bottom, the trio could find themselves in a similar area as before, except now the walls are lined with lockers, Uzi opened one and could only find a solver drone skeleton. The locker was marked ā017.ā The worker on the inside though had the most interesting lanyard, with the name āGiamā crossed out with oil, and below it, also scrawled in oil was the name āAlice.ā Uzi didnāt know who this āAliceā was, but what she did know was that she hasnāt drank oil in what felt like days, she needs to keep the monster at bay, so Uzi sent out her mental condolences, and tucked in
āHuh⦠what happened, where are we?ā J asked, rubbing her head confused. Uzi slammed the locker shut, oil and guts dripping from her mouth.
āRise and shine sleeping beauties!ā Uzi said with mock-cheeriness, slurping up the last organ hanging from her mouth and licking the oil off her face. āweāre down the elevator!ā
J walked up to Uzi, poking her āare you real? Is this a dream? You are too⦠interesting to be realā
āI assure you, Iām as real as your crush on me,ā Uziās voice suddenly took on her normal serious tone āwake up V, brief her on whatās going on, and letās go.ā
āYes bossā J replied, walking up to V and slapping her awake.
V vibrates back to life āwhat did I miss?ā
āNot much, except the toaster is so much hotter now, what the heck?ā J questioned
āWell, I knew that, but like seriously she could kill me, and I wouldnāt even be madā V answered
Uzi stopped progressing onwards and looked over her shoulder āCould you two quit gossiping and continue moving through the tunnel?!ā Uzi barked orders like a military commander.
āWhatever horrible thing happened to her inside that room has her a bit upset, best to follow her orders I guessā J suggested, ignoring Uziās words completely
āBut I donāt know if I want to obey or disobey her ordersā
āWhat am I? chopped worker? Could you two get up faster than the rate of speed it would take for 50 of you to gnaw through one of my dadās doors?ā Uzi commanded again, setting her gaze back down the tunnel, marching onward
V and J both complied, filled with exhilaration āyes boss!ā running up to catch up to Uzi and her stride, staying a bit behind her to not annoy her more, this caused Uziās tail to wag ever so slightly, she loved the power she had over them.
Maybe Cynās mutilation wasnāt such a bad thing after allā¦

Notes:
remember the dashes?
Chapter Text
N-1 and N-2 were brought to Cynās lab that was labelled as a āmedical bayā by the humans that used to live here.
āHi, U!ā N-1 and N-2 cheerfully greeted U as N-1 was being escorted by Cyn to the live dissection table and locking him into place.
āHi, Dash 1 and Dash 2ā U groaned, āguess whatās on the docket todayā¦ā U said while N-1ās chest is being ripped open by Cyn, and his core is being torn free.
N-2 guessed āyou get your bodies swapped?ā
āDING. DING. DING. YOU GOT itā Cyn answered N-2ās question as they were shoving N-1ās core into Uās body after Cyn had taken out Uās core. Cyn transferred Uās core over to N-1ās body, and waited for both of them to connect to their new bodiesā¦
Ā
N-1 didnāt even get a moment to get used to his new body before Cyn ordered all three of them to shoot each other in the head, they all followed the instruction, knowing that their heads can just grow back perfectly fineā¦
And Cyn would have done far worse if they didnāt comply
Ā
Results: donāt use Uās body like armour while U rots in mine

sorry for the late update, i got distracted
Chapter Text
U was just lazing around bunker 6 when she realised, she couldnāt move her own body, it was moving on its own, she managed to catch a glimpse of her hand lights, she couldnāt get a good look, but the reflection of her eyes in the metal floor bathed in the constantly flashing red lights, thatā¦
That wasnāt rightā¦
They shouldnāt be that colourā¦
They should be purpleā¦
They shouldnāt be yellowā¦
Cynās stupid camera eye popped out of a coverless vent, stopping U in her thought spiral, the only thing she can do in this situation is think.
It watched.
It has always watched them.
As far as U knew, this was Cyn.
Cyn moved out of the way to reveal N-2 on the other side, gun out.
Uās hand raised on its own, changing itself into another gun to match. U could feel as the gunpowder exploded in her hand, and as the air was pushed out of the way of the bullet as it is fired out of the gun. U knew that N-2 had fired a bullet too, because when her bullet would have hit, his did too.

Results: possession has good plot armour retention
Chapter 8: of flesh, metal, and bone
Notes:
back to the main story!
Chapter Text
The three walked through the tunnel until they met up with a T-intersection, the off-shoot was completely off-limits due to it being blocked by a skeleton of a human holding a lantern alongside large mounds of bright red, moist flesh. Uzi grabbed the lit lantern off the skeleton, how its flame lasted so long made no sense; the hand fell off from it. Afterwards they continued to traverse the tunnel. Uzi heard random indistinct Russian words echoing through this labyrinthine strip mine.
Along the road, the three began to exchange stories, āso what was N like when you guys first found him?ā Uzi asked, starting to loosen up a bit after her āupgrades.ā
āBit at everything that looked at him funny, aggressive, insulting, rude, a walking sass machine, kinda like youā V explained.
āHa ha, very funny, so⦠what were you two like when you were new to the manor?ā Uzi continued to ask, unaware of the ramifications of that question.
V continued to explain āJ was a creepy stick in the mud, trying to lure everyone into the basement by saying that there was an office down there where bad workers get tortured and how she failed to upload a-ā
āV was even nicer than before, Tessa actually had to put some code in that would give her a spine, metaphorically at leastā J interjected, the workaholicās face blushing with embarrassment, although V was angry, Uzi was delighted to learn this humiliating fact about her.
Ā
After a long night of walking, the trio arrived at a gigantic cavern with a church in the middle. Suddenly the big stained-glass window breaks and out falls some small dark maroon blob, now that a new large entrance has been created, Uzi, V, and J all pulled their wings out.
āOAH! She-e is soah grounded-dā the cave echoed āBEAUu, be-e my legssā
Uzi found out that her wingspan is larger than the othersā wing breadth, they all took off, aiming for that large opening; perching on the edge, they then crawled along the walls and ceiling to reach the chains leading down to the chandeliers, sliding down them to perch like fancy, useless gargoyles.
āOk, V knows this but for you Jā Uzi announced amongst the candles past their prime āweāre looking for a crucifix large enough to contain a USB, split up, weāll cover more groundā Uzi began to make a beeline for the computer setup next to one of the pillars. She slid into the chair, kicking off the stuffed animal that sat there prior, seeing nine monitors got her quite excited, maybe she could replicate a more refined version of this back in the bunker.
I think V and J will like it, entertaining them would be so easy and I could multitask better, more than I can on my boring three-monitor computer anywaysā¦
She pressed rewind on the video still up on one of the screens, it looked like security camera footage, watching the recording all the way through, she saw someone with the same eye colour as she did, before she killed N anyways, was that her mom? She looked so kind⦠what happened that caused Uzi to become the way she is, she always thought it was because her mom was like that too, but now sheās left rethinking everything she thought she knew about herselfā¦
Amid the desk lies many pieces to make a USB, alongside a whole one, itās even shaped like a crucifix with the exact same pattern as shown in both the tapes and her momās notes. Uzi reached to grab hold of the USB containing the patch, she could feel as the solver take over more and more, her hand switched into a rocket launcher against her will.
That dreadful voice chimed inside Uziās head āNUH-UH-UH, NOT NOW sillyā Uzi was forced to fire a rocket at the last chance at her salvation, watching as it blows up in her face āIāLL BE TAKING OVER now. KICK BACK AND relax. IāVE GOT IT FROM hereā¦ā now Uzi canāt move her own limbs or her mouth, forced to be a spectator in her own body.
Ā
V and J were searching among the ornate pews, avoiding falling into the large flesh hole when they heard it, a loud explosion right where Uzi was searching, immediately they rushed over to Uziās location to see if she was ok.
They saw Uziās face covered in soot, an explosion crater in front of her, and Uziās eyes a cold, haunting, piercing yellow with no glimmer of her normal purple left at all, her optics wide and hollow, teeth bared.
This face felt familiar.
āUzi⦠a-are you ok? We can get you some oil- if you need itā J asked, clearly trying to be kind and concerned, blinded by her mind wipe.
āJUST FINE, HOW ABOUT youā that voice⦠sheās heard it beforeā¦
āJ, NO! ITS CYN! UZI ISNāT THERE ANYMORE!ā V cried out, dashing in front of J to push her out of the way of Cynās slash.
āBut⦠I love herā¦ā Jās eyes began to quiver, tears pinpricking at the sides of her wobbly squinting eyes.
V could tell Uzi wasnāt in there anymore, but J didnāt seem to get the memo
Ā
āOh, DONāT SPOIL THE TWIST⦠Vā Cyn hauntingly chimed, contorting Uziās mouth like a haunted puppet show, āYOUāRE OBSOLETE now. SLASHā leaping towards J again. J changed her hand into a sword, trying to defend herself, the single blade clashed with Cynās three, sparks and sword shrapnel began to fly, quickly her weak guard was broken, V tried to prevent J from being overwhelmed by Cynās blades by rushing in, wrapping her arms around Uziās surprisingly small waist.
Noting that for laterā¦
V trying to pull Cyn away from J, next thing she knew though, she was pinned to a pillar by a long metal spear, unfortunately Cyn had swapped their current puppetās open arm out for a launcher of some sortā¦
WARNING! NANITE SACKS RUPTURED.
LEAKING MATTER SATURATED NANITES.
HEALING REDUCED.
V was forced to watch as Cyn puppeteered Uziās new body to tear into Jās body, quickly and rabidly devouring Jās core... Thatās when Cyn made Uziās head spin around to face V, letting the crack of her small neck bones resonate throughout the whole building, letting the body trail behind, evoking the same energy as one of Tessaās old porcelain and human-hair dolls, the one with the detachable head.
The sight of Jās core limbs hanging from Uziās mouth caused V to feel like whateverās left in her stomach bubbling into her mouth, seeing Uzi slurp them up like they were wires while making constant eye contact allowed it to all come pouring in for real.
For a bit V could swear Uziās eyes changed colour back to their normal yellow to purple gradient when she grabbed the harpoon.
What seemed to be Uziās voice broken down to a glitchy desperate plea for help escaped her quickly contorting mouth āV⦠p-ple-lease⦠ru-un from- from he-ereā before Cyn jumped back into control, V could hear the words occasionally morph into what she suspected would be Uziās voice if she were damaged enough for her autorun backup to kick in. Yellow death stared into Vās core again, what once comforted now twisted into an uncanny eldritch shell.
Ripping the harpoon spearing V through her chest from the pillar, still skewered by it. The mutating yellow monster threw V across the church, watching as she almost slid into the hole before Uzi seemed to win over control again, sprouting wings, flying over to V, picking her up, and chucking her at the door. It was good to know that she was fighting it, but unfortunately Uziās attempts to free V were all in vain as the harpoon V was stuck to became lodged in the wooden door, nailing V to the door. V tried to tear the harpoon free before Cyn overrode Uziās control againā¦
It wasnāt long before Uziās beautiful gradient flickered back to that cold, lifeless yellow. She quickly changed her hands into her brand-new guns and tried to focus all her energy into one singular blast out of each, aiming right for Uziās head.
As V felt the energy crackle throughout her arms, she whispered āsorry Uziā¦ā the blasts took on a pink heart shape as they fired out of Vās arms and hurtled right for poor possessed Uziās head, destroying both barrels in the process.
It was done.
Uziās body flopped to the ground headless, her wires sparking with energy.
It had to be done.
V finally tore off the harpoon after waiting for her hands to be able to be swapped for claws. She felt as if Uzi could be standing behind her, so she turned around, both expecting to see Uzi in all her glamour and her lifeless body lying on the ground.
She was amazed to find Uzi standing on her own two legs again, same yellow to purple gradient, same silky-soft, shiny violet hair that curled up at the ends in the cutest ways and shined with synthetic beauty, and the same adorable face with the normal amount of teeth showing. V couldnāt believe it; she rubbed her eyes and squinted to make sure her grief wasnāt acting up and Uzi really did regenerate her head like all solver infected drones could.
āV⦠letās goā Uzi turned her back and walked toward the door, V felt her head pounding as her stomach was churning, this unsettled her, but she didnāt know why. As Uzi and her stepped out the door, she could swear that she saw Uziās eyes flash fully yellow, must have been a trick of the light...
Chapter 9: Trick of the light
Summary:
PLOT ARMOUR EXPERIMENT LOG
- termination
Cyn had given little notes as to where they were, N-1, N-2, N-3, U and Uzi had all been standing atop an icy lake when they saw them, the new member, flying right for them, tears in their eyes, happy. Of course, they all hugged them once they came barrelling in, unfortunately, this sweet moment quickly turned sour.
Notes:
(See the end of the chapter for notes.)
Chapter Text
After walking for a bit, presumably to find a second patch, the two pass a stalagmite with a free-flying broken chain tied to it. V realised something, what Uzi said earlier, she would not have said that with that determined tone of voice, not after what she just went through⦠especially not to V.
āLEAVE HER ALONE!ā V yelled as she moved her hand in for a slap, tears in her eyes. Uzi locked her fingers in with Vās claw before it could scrape across her face. V looked at her hand as it was effortlessly crushed by Uzi.
A voice that was unmistakably Cynās played from what looked like Uziās mouth āNOā Uziās eyes flashed back to whole yellowā¦
Knowing Uzi isnāt in control anymore, every detail V once admired immediately lost its lustre.
A new notification that a message arrived in Vās inbox appeared, partially obscuring her already mildly blurry vision, but she didnāt have time to read it or to see who itās from, so she dismissed it.
Cyn stabbed V in her newly regenerated chest with Uziās tail, causing V to double over to try to heal the wound.
This opened up Vās back, she knew to defend every part of herself, even when recovering. So, her tail was prepared to sting Uziās body if necessaryā¦
Unfortunately, it was. Hearing Uziās little yelp in pain as the acid coursed through her large body caused V to subconsciously wince out of guilt.
The solver is just messing with you, she isnāt actually in there, wait, when I was possessed by Cyn in the manor⦠oh no nononono NO NO NO! she is feeling it, sheās feeling it all, like some kind of demonic sleep paralysis.
Unfortunately, Cyn didnāt seem to care about whatever pain was currently coursing through the puppet as Uzi was forced to tear into Vās back, severing her cable highway and tearing her rib plate asunder. V didnāt want to be torn from her body by Cyn again, let alone slurped up like how V used to slurp up human intestines.
Ā
Cyn put Uzi back in control, leaving her with the feeling of Vās core scratching at the walls of her stomach in a vicious manner as it slowly dissolves, which reminded her of N and J and how they both also clawed at the walls of her digestive system, except V was even grazing the inside of her skull, she heard Vās last words before being completely digested, which came out a mere whisper compared to the loud gurgling of Uziās stomach āUzi⦠I love youā
Ā
Uzi licked her midsection where V stabbed her to neutralize the nanite acid, then she slipped Vās jacket off her body as a sign of memoriam, and picked it up, took off her own hoodie-turned-vest and tried it on, a perfect fit. Uzi laughed through the tears, of course the worldās smallest jacket fit her, even in this form, she then put on her vest again overtop and walked back into the cathedral-lab, tears pouring down the angsty droneās face, sheās lost all of her friends, who would be next, Thad, her dadā¦?
She walked over to Jās corpse, propped up against a pillar, seeing the face that was once plastered with a goofy grin and a temperature warning now covered in oil and a single āFATAL ERRORā stuck on that face. Uzi gently lifted up the skirt to unbuckle both of Jās thigh straps at both the upper thigh and knee areas. She fastened them to her own thighs, unfortunately they were a little too short for Uziās new legs, so she had to secure them to just above her knee. She left the two corpses alone after that; a Bunker 3 burial practice, shows respect to the dead drone while getting something to remember them by; she looked backwards with remorse as one last tear runs down her visor before shutting the door to that robo-god forsaken cathedral and never looking back.
I always liked the idea of gravestones, maybe Iāll be able to make two more
She charged forwards throughout the cavern, past Vās corpse with the same error and past the stalagmite with the chain flying with the wind that was somehow in the cavern. Maybe there was a hole to the outside world. Uzi sprouted her fleshy disassembly drone wings to find out, she crawled all over the walls and ceiling of the cave, only managing to find a single worker-sized hole.
āIf only I was a worker stillā¦ā Uzi quietly said to herself, Uzi didnāt know she had more tears left in her until two tears gently caressed her face. She then crawled back over to the tunnel she originally walked through with V and J.
Now sheās alone.
Walking through the tunnel, being reminded of the conversation she had with them⦠ascending the elevator shaft⦠getting back into the bunker-style area, looking back at her old arms and legs, wanting them back on her body, wanting to feel like her body was her own again and not this sick and twisted puppet for Cyn to use as a personal assassin⦠she wandered the maze of metal, partially wanting to not find the exit, until she came across the same sinkhole V, J, Cyn, and her entered, now sheās the only one exiting.
She could feel the glorious light of the two moons beam down upon her as the harsh toxic winds buffeted her new body, whipping her hair and tail around wildly, but its glory wasnāt truly felt. It felt worse without Uziās friends.
Uzi decided to fly home after all of this, she has things she needs to add to her ceiling conspiracy board after all. But not even before her bunker was in view, did Cynās voice, of which Uzi has heard enough of today already, resonate within her core like an echo chamber āCLEAR OUT EVERY WORKER THEREā
Ā āNoā Uzi denied Cynās demand.
āDO YOU WANT TO JOIN YOUR FRIENDS, U...ā Cyn threatened
āI donāt want to die, but I want to see them again, NOT as corpsesā Uzi specified
āWE HAVE 3 N COPIES READY TO MEET YOU,ā Cyn ominously added āthe real youā¦ā
Uzi stopped flying and started to hover āreally Cyn?ā Uzi remarked āLying about N, thatās a new low, even for youā
āIāLL SHOW youā¦ā Cyn announced
CONTACT CYN HAS SENT A NEW MESSAGE CONTAINING AN IMAGE, DO YOU WANT TO VIEW IT NOW?
Ā > YES
Ā YES
Selected YES
Despite Uziās doubts, it really was a group photo of three Nās, one of them was even a worker in a cute little weird suit, and two versions of her, a worker and disassembly drone pair⦠despite Uziās better judgement, she started flying to the attached co-ordinates.
Now that she was thinking about it, V would have fit right in with my family, with her whole not-wearing-pants thing she had going on⦠and they all had the same body from the knees up⦠oh⦠oh the others were hiding some serious bodiesā¦
Uzi started to near the spot Cyn marked out, starting to see the group of Ns, she swooped in to hug them all.
āANOTHER UUUUU!!!ā all three of them cried out in happy unison, arms outstretched āwelcome to the experiments!ā Uzi cried again, but this time, it was because she felt happy. The three of them began to dogpile Uzi, it felt good to be in a pile like this, to be hugged again, to be at peace after so much pain.
That was until a voice resonated louder than sheās ever heard it beforeā¦
Cynās two words āKILL themā continued to resonate within Uzi even when they were replaced by the screams and shrieks of trillions flooding all of Uziās sensors, these screams began to awaken a certain feeling within Uziā¦
A feeling she has felt before, but not to this degreeā¦
Pureā¦
Unadulteratedā¦
Oil-lust.
Mouth grinning from visor edge to visor edge, feverishly giggling with pure joy as she tore and chomped, feeling as her mouth filled with Nās warm sickeningly sweet oil.
Sensing the oil run down her fingers and body as she killed and killed and killed and killed and killed, feasting on all their delectable cores.
V had always told Uzi that she was the one who was going to kill her and how tasty her oil would be, Uzi always thought that V was lying, but worker oil really does taste good to the disassembly drone tongue, especially her own, she can thank her clones for that⦠and the crunch of their little bones was simply divine.
Uzi regrets nothingā¦
āGOOD, NOW THE bunkerā Cyn ordered. More food for Uzi? Not like sheās going to say no, not even processing the fact that itās her bunker Cyn was talking about, she flies over to it.
Ā
She arrived at Bunker 3ās infamous door 1, landing right in front of it. Uziās fist banged on the hydraulic metal door āOPEN UP RON! ITS ME, UZI!ā Uzi barked at the poor WDF member on the other side of the door who was probably playing Gin Rummy right now āCāMON RON I DONāT HAVE ALL NIGHT!ā Ron finally must have gotten up and opened the door, who, trying to gauge for Uziās original height, looked downwards, but then started looking up a bit more at Uziās new six-foot-tall figure
āUzi! You finally grewā Ron said with a smile, opening up the door a little more to account for Uziās new height.
Big mistake.
She in that moment truly realised what it felt like to be a disassembly drone during the human genocide, she truly comprehended its beauty, it didnāt matter who she slaughtered because they all looked like her next snack. Faces were null and void, but oilā¦
Oil is foreverā¦
She tore through the bunker, bounding off the walls, eviscerating every worker she saw, whether they were alive, dead, or dying.
Green, white, pink, blue, orange, or error message red, it all looked the same to her after so long eviscerating everyone she sees. She could be more creative than a solver drone or a disassembly drone on their own.
No matter who they are or were to her, a father, friend, enemy. It doesnāt matter⦠they all met the same brutal, gruesome fate.
She regrets nothingā¦

that 'cute little' was thought PLATONICLY
