Work Text:
"It's been seven years since I've worked at this place, a part of my life I much regret..." Tessa sat in the chair in her office. "Saw workers burst in tears, a drone start eating a face, I tried to move on and just forget!"
"Hey, where's V?" Uzi asked. "I haven't seen her!" N replied. "V?" Uzi and N called out.
"What could this be?" V examined a box. "It wasn't here before, it's bigger than me!" V looked to Uzi who just showed up. "Maybe it's a big box!" She chimed in. "Obviously, it's full of party favors!" N exclaimed. "Pickles!" V suggested. "Ponies!" Uzi said. "Pizza!" N interrupted. "The pox! What?" V looked at her two confused band mates.
"Falling asleep, until the phone starts ringing.." Tessa muted the call. "Six inches deep, under the mess on my desk! Why would they keep, a rotten cupcake up here?!" Tessa tossed it in the trash. "Creepy and grotesque!"
"Maybe we shouldn't touch it.." Uzi said. "Why not? It's just a shady crate!" V asked. "It could be corrosive!" Uzi suggested. "Or even explosive!" N yelled. "And nobody knows if it's not safe!" N and Uzi said simultaneously. "Fine, just give me a minute, I'll wrap it back up and- uh oh." V's eyes hollowed.
"Camera's gone dead, and now I'm wondering if it's all in my head!" Tessa adjusted her bow.
"Yes, it's all in your head!"
"V, you said, it'd only take a minute!" Uzi said. "Or maybe it took her instead!" N said, scared. "What should we do?! I'm good at panicked screeching!" Uzi ran her hands through her hair. "Let's look for clues, V's gotta be near! Uzi would you, go look inside the kitchen? How could she just disappear?" N asked.
"Where's she going, screen's not showing, could've sworn that camera was fixed!" Tessa switched to the kitchen camera, not seeing anything.
"J, can you help me, I need you please to tell me, Where V is before it turns 6!" N approached J's office.
"Why's V here? Why's she tied up? What's that sound in my ear?" Tessa asked. "It's cause the music box stopped!" Uzi exclaimed. "Uzi?!" Tessa asked, surprised. "Oh dear, watch out, she's coming for you!" Uzi screamed as she saw Cyn rushing at the door. "Good thing this door can be locked!" Tessa tried to lock the door, the door jamming and Cyn tackled her.
"Don't worry, I'll save you!" N rushed at Cyn, a fanfare in the background. "You've gotta be kidding me." Tessa deadpanned. "I changed my mind." The fanfare stopped as N turned. "Run away!" N rushed off.
"Got nowhere to run, and I've got nowhere to hide! Got no chance to fight or even pray!" Tessa exclaimed. "She's got to be stopped!" Uzi exclaimed. "She's too destructive to live!" N cried. "Mfpmpfmhfm!" V mumbled. "What did she say?" Uzi asked. "She said Watch out for the fan!" N yelled.
"A little help would be great, my face is about to be filleted!" Tessa cried, Cyn pushing her face closer to the blades. "Look, The solver is here to send her back to the grave!" N exclaimed. "Watch out for your tendrils! Oof, too late.." Tessa cringed.
