Chapter Text
Ever since I moved to crossroads, I would find myself waking up at around 2 am. I would look at the moon, big and bright, sometimes hidden… I like to think that at least the moon is taking care of me, shining upon all of us to show hope. I then started going out for walks, which.. I know It’s hella dangerous but.. I’d help me think… and it would relax me. Pffttt what would the others think if they knew I did this?… But.. it’s currently 2 am and I’m out here, walking once again. I do hear most times sounds of crashing, loud banging, sometimes gunshots.. but I have gotten used to it! I know the best routes to avoid trouble and stay safe! But today, while walking.. I saw a shadow hidden.. when I took a closer look it was a.. biograft? You know.. those fancy machinery the tv shows often. How could one just, end up here? Regardless of how, I felt pity, and with the help of my plants I lifted it up and began to rush it home, maybe I could help? It hurts seeing that it was created, only to be discarded…
I did my best to not make any noise, and I think I did good..! I took it to my room and stared at it.. I heard it works by the forces of blackrock’s crystals or something, but maybe my plants could do something similar? They are also organic.. and have a ton of energy on them.. maybe trying won’t hurt.. vinestaff took a deep breath before reaching her hand into its chest, would she have to open it up?.. no… she had already managed to do something like this before.. she took her gear out and began to create plants, the plants crawled into the cracks of the machinery and went into it’s core, shining. Vinestaff waited patiently for anything.. some sound.. a gear moving perhaps? Any movement? Any glow? But… after a few minutes nothing happened.. perhaps she was a little too innocent to think this would work… Ugh I should just go back to bed and maybe.. trying returning this to blackrock for money? Doesn’t sound too bad.. she began getting up, but as soon as she started doing so.. she heard a little bit of noise coming from the robot.. it’s eyes then lit up in orange, with a powerful glow, it’s head, which was resting, now began looking up, exterminating it’s surroundings, vinestaff got back down.
_ “Ah! Hello? Can you understand me little one?..” “Do you have a name of some sort?”
the machine locked eyes with her and then let out:
_ “I AM THE MODEL KNOWN AS ZETA, HERE TO ELIMINATE ANY TARGETS NECESSARY. WAITING FOR YOUR COMMAND, MASTER”
_ “Oh gosh.. you’re louder then I thought..” she says to herself while putting her hand on her chin, thinking “Target? Ah no no.. you don’t need to eliminate no one! You are safe with me! You are a biograft, right? I’ll call you bio! For now.. just answer my questions-” “AFFIRMATIVE.”
_ “Heh, you look actually a bit cute.. !! what am I saying?.. uh anyways! You must be confused, yeah? I’m vinestaff! I’ll take care of you from now on! Till I figure something out.. this is my home! I live with my two brothers but.. they can’t see you okay?! Do NOT hurt anyone too!!”
_ “BZZ ORDERS RECEIVED! NOT HURTING TARGETS.”
_ “Yes!.. can you say anything I tell you to? Like… beep boop?”
_ “ I AM PROGRAMMED TO DO ANYTHING MY SUPERIORS ORDER ME TO, INCLUDING YOU, MASTER.”
_ “Ah perfect! Come here now! She walks towards her closet, waiting for biograft to come. My first order will be for you to stay in my closet alright? I will sleep and talk to you later! Here I’ll help you get in”
_ “BZZ ORDERS RECEIVED. GETTING IN THE CLOSET.” vinestaff helps them out, and indicates them to sit at the corner of the closet
_ “Goodnight little one! I’ll see you soon!” she begins to close the door of the closet while the biograft observes her.
Oh my goodness! I have a soldier robot in my home now????? what was I thinking???? how will I keep this away from shuri and slingie??? gosh…. I feel tired too.. having to carry that all the way home in a rush.. even with the help of my plants…. Yawns… maybe I should just go to bed… ugh I said I would figure something out right? So that’s what I’ll do! Thank god tomorrow is the weekend.. vine prepares herself to go to bed, and so she falls asleep again..
