Just dream…

*FLICK*

-3:30 AM-

-Cam03: hallwayL1-

Inside a hallway, dimly lit by five lamps placed on the ceiling, one of them flickering every few seconds, four drones, three disassembly drones, and one worker, each one of their bodies blurred, and their faces hidden by a black square. The censoring was done just enough where you couldn’t see who they were and exactly what they looked like, but not bad enough where you couldn’t see what was going on.

They were fighting it looked, the disassembly drones would attempt to attack the worker drone, but the worker would fight back, using surprising enough solver powers to dodge their attacks and attack them back.

Get her.

Get her..!

One of the three lunged for the worker, a solver glyph appeared onto it, they were brought into the air, and  was thrown against each and every wall before being flung out of view, colliding into another and dragging it with them as this happened.

No!

She went for only remaining disassembly drone, at first it pushed the worker to the ground, a went to bite her, but the worker picked up what felt to be out of nowhere a pickaxed and slammed it into what looked like their screen judging by the amount of shards that exploded.

The killer sprung into the air and fell backwards.

Frustration.

The worker stood atop of it, and rised the pickaxe high up into the air, preparing to place on final blow into it’s head.

It looked like it was the end of the line for bigger drones, that was until out of nowhere…

The third disassembly drone flew right back into the view, lashing out once at the worker with their chainsaw as they done so.

It was hard to see, but it appeared that they had taken the arm clean from it’s target, so clean that it’s limb had became unblurred as it flew into the air and dropped onto the ground.

They stumbled back, and oil began to squirt out from the fresh cut each passing second.

Yes!

The two began to fight, the worker swinging the axe each few times, and the disassembly drone trying to get her with claws, this happen for a minute or so, before the disassembly drone had done something even more unexpected.

He headbutted the worker drone, so hard they flew into the air and out of view, afterwards they dashed right for them once more.

YES!

The screen went black.

⚠NO CONNECTION⚠

*FLICK*

-3/2/3053-

-3:40 AM-

-Cam01: OfficeEntry-

The worker had been pinned to the wall by the disassembly drone, it still tried to fight but it was no use, they were trapped like a rat.

The killer’s dragged them down to the ground, and with a swift swing of the tail, forced it’s nanite acid needle right into the worker’s head.

The worker tried to kick and push away from the bigger drone for a moment, but then…

It’s movements died out.

They went limp.

The disassembly drone pulled away, and the body dropped the ground, it made a run for it.

An emotionless chuckle,

Good  Job 01000101 01010010 01010010 01001111 01010010 ERROR 01000101 01010010 01010010 01001111 01010010

⚠⚠THIS MESSAGE CANNOT BE DECRYPTED; TRY AGAIN⚠⚠

The footage began to glitch out, bits and pieces of it cutting out, and static beginning to form on the screen. Until finally…

*CRACK*

The glass screen shattered and Uzi’s vision went black.

For the next seven seconds nothing.

Then….she woke up!

Her little sleepmode icon disappeared showing her two purple pupils staring down at the ground, which was now clear of V’s presence.

She lied there for a while, trying to process whatever she had just seen, shaking a little…? She couldn’t really tell.

After what felt to be forever she finally sat up in bed, rubbing her eyes.

What was that about? Though the lady drone looking over at her boyfriend who still slept peacefully next to her, a little line of drool leaking from the corner of his mouth and onto Uzi’s pillow.

She cringed with a groan of disgust before lying back down next to him.

She clasped her hands together and placed them over her chests, looking up at the posters and drawings N had made plastered all over her ceiling, trying to wonder what that dream could possibly have meant, or been about.

And then…then something appeared on the corner of her screen…a notification for a text, a little letter icon with a one on the corner of it.

Curious she tapped on it, a message appeared in the middle of her screen.

This is what it read:

*D i d  y o u  r e a l l y  t h i n k  y o u  c o u l d  g e t  r i d  o f  m e  t h a t  e a s i l y :)

Uzi felt her core skip a beat.

No.

Nononono.

Her hands began to tremble.

Another letter, she opened it up as well.

A picture of Uzi’s room, at that exact moment of time, she knew this because it was a picture of her computer, with the exact same lightning position and the exact bottle of oil she had left their a night before.

“No.” Uzi swiped it away, and shook her head a few times.

This wasn’t happening, this couldn’t have been happening.

Then three more letters, three more pictures.

One of V sleeping.

One of the ceiling.

Then one of N

At this point panic had completely over took her, Cyn was still alive, she lived, and was somewhere in this room, her core beat so fast she thought it would explode, and she sat down on her bed holding her chest, feeling her breathing become labored.

This couldn’t be real, Cyn was gone, she had to be!

“N.” she got on her knees and pushed him onto his back.

“Hm…” he hummed in mild annoyance trying to stay asleep, Uzi however continued to bother him.

“Wake up!”

“What?”

He finally opened his eyes to look to her.

“Cyn’s alive.”

“What?!”

“Cyn’s alive!”

Her boyfriend finally sprung up from where he was lying down, and got up.

Uzi jumped down from bed, and began to stumble back.

“I-I-I don’t where, but she’s here! She’s-She’s messaging me or something.”

The purple haired drone waved her hands about in the air, before pointing a trembling finger to her icons.

“She’s sending me pictures, just now taken pictures!” she tried to tell him each and every detail that had come to her scattered brain at that moment.

With worry written all across his face, N looked all over the room, keeping close eyes on spots where someone could possibly hide, such as the closat, under the bed or one of the vents.

He summoned a machine gun from the left parto of his arm, and furrowed his brow, bracing himself for melle “Do you know where she could be?” he walked over to her, taking one last look under the bed as he done so.

“No!” she shook her head, “I have no idea where she could be.” she made a run over to the closet and grabbed her railgun which was perched on one of the doors of it.

"Then we need to find her!”

“Well obviously we do!”

Around this point, both the drones were incredibly panicked; One of the most powerful and most destructive creatures was in the room with them, and the worst part was they didn’t even know where she was.

Uzi trotted over to N, dusting off her railgun as she done so, as she made her way over to him, the boy had realized something about his girlfriend.

He looked deeper into her eyes with skepticism.

Uzi noticed this, and her two pupils shifted into rings.

“What?” she said

“Their purple again.”

His girlfriend tilted her head, a brow raising in confusion, “what?” she worded under breath.

She repeated what he said internally, what could that possibly mean? She was lost, but then she saw her reflection in her own monitor.

Her face, staring back into his own, her eyes were back to their original purple color.

Then her screen began to flicker, yellow writing appeared on it.

*B e h i n d  y o u :)

It disappeared, and they both looked at each other with alarm.

Uzi stayed holding onto N, she didn’t dare look behind her, she didn’t want, and N understood completely, he moved closer to her, wrappd a singular arm around her back, then he got up on his tippy toes and looked over her.

Their he had seen…

Nothing?

His lips curled downward in confusion, looking left and right, but then, he looked down and he saw Uzi’s solver tail, looking up at him with yellow eyes.

It opened it’s mouth, appearing as though it was smiling.

“Uzi.” N spoke up.

“What?”

His girlfriend pushed off from him and turned around, her tail curled so it’s head would still be in front of them.

“We meet again, Uzi.” A familiar monotone voice had escaped it's mouth

Both the two looked in complete disbelief.

“What the-” Uzi stuttered out

“Cyn?” N got down to the creature’s level.

“Is that…you?” He poked her eye once.

The solver backed away and snapped her jaw at N’s finger, but he quickly pulled back, and stand up straight.

The partners looked to each other, then back to the tail creature.

。。。

Uzi sat on the counter of the doctor’s office, Dr. Ratchet was in front of her writing something down on his note pad.

Khan was sitting on of the chairs at the left of the room, looking with worry at his child, N and V would be their too, however the docter had told them to stay in the waiting room, because the docter didn’t feel comfortable with having disassemble drones in his office, which was understood considering they were at fault for multiple emergency docter visits.

Cyn appeared and began to pester Uzi, headbutting her side ever few seconds, Uzi tiredly tried to push her away.

Dr. Ratchet made his way over to Khan.

“Yup, it’s a parasite.” he declared. “Found it while I was searching through her files, right between “Mother and father issues” “teenage angst arc” and..." he bit his lip moment.

“crush on tall hot golden retriever vampire drone...?” he looked to Uzi with skeptism in his eyes, Uzi hid herself way, he looked back to Khan.

The father sighed

”I-Is it going to kill her?” He asked.

”With what I saw, no it won’t,” Dr. Ratchet explained, “It as matter doesn’t cause any type of harm.”

That managed to bring relief to Khan, it wasn't going to kill her, that was good.

“Well can we get rid of it?” He asked,

Dr. Rachet shook his head, "It doesn't look like it.”

Khan's face fell.

“OW-STOP HEADBUTTING ME!”

The two turned to see what was going on.

Uzi was now trying to grab for her tail spinning on the counter as Cyn done all she could to avoid her grasp.

Khan and the Docter looked at them both.

“Honestly, the hardest part of this, should be getting her to accept the fact.” Dr. Ratchet

crossed his arms, "Atleast, that's what it looks like from my perspective." he shrugged, unsure of what too say.

Khan looked back over to the scene going on, with a hint of worry.

Right the docter was about getting use to it! Because despite the constant efforts of termination, that pesky parasite never left.

V N and Uzi tried to cut Cyn off, all that happened was the skin of Uzi’s tail had broken, and it made her bleed.

They tried to prune Cyn, it worked for the time being, but Cyn grew back fast. Then when they’d pruned her again, she grew back even faster, the next time

They even tried to set fire to Cyn, which she was flammable...and so was Uzi.

They could still hear Uzi swearing like a sailor after that whole ordeal. yeah THAT was fun...

Finally Uzi, desperate for a last resort, thought to kill Cyn by antifreeze poisoning, so for a whole 24 hours she only drank coolants.

The plan did not work, all it had done was cause both of them to get severely drunk, made Uzi to throw up on N twice, Cyn to be so off balance she’d trip peoples’ legs multiple times,

Khan was completely unaware of this, until he had seen his daughter passed out in the middle of the hallway.

When he found out what had happened Khan was not at all happy, which resulted in Uzi being grounded for a week, and threatened to have her wifi and railgun privileges taking away if she ever done something like that again.

Needless to say Uzi had stopped after that little ordeal (which was a shame since she didn’t even get to try what magnets and battery acid would do to Cyn) and done just as the doctor told her and accepted the filthy parasite as part of herself, not happily though.

”Shove! Push! Toss! Drag!”

N, sitting on Uzi’s floor, drawing in his new sketchbook, watched blankly as all items on Uzi’s nightstands were thrown in the air and placed astray across the bedroom, his girlfriend however paid no mind to this, and instead lied down on her bed face stuck in a magazine about firearms, until Cyn had snatched it up and tossed it feet into the air, before falling right for N’s head.

He gripped it tightly. And looked to see Uzi didn’t even bat an eye.

“Giggle giggle, I am so naughty.” Cyn twirled for a moment, bobbing her head left and right as though she was dancing.

Uzi rolled her eyes watching the sight.

”Maybe once she gets use to her new body, she’ll calm down?” N sat up handing Uzi her

book.

”It’s been like a week since she’s gotten her “new body ". I don’t think she’s gonna calm down.” Uzi snatched her book back, and flicked the pages back to her spot.

“Open! Close! Open! Close!” Cyn began to mess with the drawer on the nightstand.

Uzi and N both flinched, with each slam of the drawer, it was like nails on a chalkboard.

The purple haired drone’s hands shook violently causing her to crumple her poor magazine up into near nothing.

MAKE IT STOP!

“It SUCKS N!” Uzi exclaimed sitting up and looking to her boyfriend “Everyday when I

wake up, she’s there shouting at me and tossing crap all over the place!” She pointed to her tail “When I get dressed, she pops up and starts giving me fashion advice about what I should be wearing something more pretty so I don’t look so dirty or something, then when I go to bed she starts singing lullabies! I CAN’T EVEN DRINK OIL WITHOUT HER OVER HERE BEGGING ME TO GIVE HER A SIP!” Uzi cried, tearing at the hair of her wig.

N tilted his head, “but I thought the doctor said she gets half your oil anyway, why would she want something she'll end up having anyway?”

Uzi grit her teeth into a crazed grin, "Good question." She pointed to N

Afterwards she fell back onto her bed with a groan, placing her hands over her eyes, Cyn noticed this, and moved right in front of Uzi’s face.

”Uzi? What’s wrong, confusion.” She asked.

The purple haired drone began to shake, slowly and quietly pulling her hands away from her screen, revealing deranged hollow eyes.

Noticing her alarming change of demeanor, N pushed Cyn far away from Uzi, and hopped onto the bed, sitting down next to Uzi, keeping both her and the tail monster far away from each other

”I'm Sorry, you're so stressed, I wish there was something I could do to make you feel better.” N apologized.

Uzi sighed softly, guilt creeping onto her.

”No...” Uzi shook her head “It’s not your fault, I mean I was the one who swallowed a being of eldritch horror and mass destruction, so I’m gonna pay for it.”

N lied down next to her, “And it didn’t kill you.” He pointed out “That’s always A win.”

”Yeah that’s true too I guess,”

N scooted himself close enough to where their thighs where touching, she felt him then intertwine their fingers.

Her core began to race, and her body began to overheat, in order to stop this, the fans built into her core turned on, and began to spin, making a faint whirring noise inside of her.

uzi silently hoped and prayed he wouldn't notice as she awkwardly turned away from N. maybe if she acted like it wasn't their he wouldn't ask anything about it?

and since it didn’t kill her, that also meant they could go start dating now. N thought, tail wagging,

but wait a minute

N's expression went blank for a moment.

“I just realized something.” N said aloud, straightening his body out to where he was sitting up straight, and his tail quickly brushed up against Uzi's back, causing her to practically melt.

Oh no, he noticed. “What?” spat the purple haired drone, still trying to avoid his contact.

”We haven’t gotten to go on our date yet.” N answered.

Uzi felt herself calm down, oh okay she was fine.

She sighed, ”It’s because I’ve been so wrapped up with this whole Cyn thing.” She finally

turned to face him, her flustered mood now replaced with the disappointment of that fact..

”Well...” N took Uzi’s hand into his own, “Maybe we should go on a date, so you can have distraction from the whole thing..”

Uzi thought about it, you know what, a distraction would be nice… She smiled crookedly "Sure, I'd like that."
