The prom was a highly anticipated event, and as the night wore on, it was evident that everyone was either having the time of their lives or bored out of their metaphorical skulls, given that they were robots.
The neon lights illuminated the dance floor, while the music blared through the speakers, filling the room with rhythmic beats. Some robots danced energetically, while others stood in corners, seemingly uninterested in the festivities.
"Okay, listen up, nerds." Lizzy began, her voice echoing through the hall. "We're doing this a little early, but since the entire prom court 'mysteriously' disappeared, your queen by forfeit is uh, this." She gestured behind her, where V, a menacing figure, dropped in, sending shivers down everyone's spines.
The crowd was terrified, but Lizzy quickly reassured them. "Easy, judgey bots, V is my friend." She said, pointing to the screen behind her, which showed a slideshow of pictures of her and V hanging out together. "She's done with the murder or whatever. We've been hanging."
"Yes, best friends. So easily manipulated..." V let out a wicked laugh, but then looked confused as she realized that she had been named prom queen. "Prom queen?" She muttered, staring at the crown that was supposed to be hers.
As the tension in the room mounted, Doll, one of the other students, chuckled evilly in the background, holding a list in her hand and sending a sinister stare in V's direction.
"So, forgive and forget, or I'll get my dad to dock your freakin' grades!" Lizzy ordered, her voice laced with a venomous edge. She then pointed a finger at one of her classmates, Rebecca, and sneered, "And you can't sit with us, Rebecca!"
Rebecca's face twisted in anger as she retorted, "Fine, I forgive her, settle...!"
They applauded, but Lizzy wasn't satisfied. "Clap harder, losers!" She exclaimed, her eyes glinting with a sense of smug satisfaction. The crowd obediently cheered and applauded louder.
As a worker drone, Penny, placed the crown on V's head, she leaned in and whispered. "Your dress is really cute!" V felt a sudden surge of self-consciousness.
"I... Uh..." V stammered, at a loss for words. She had never expected to be named prom queen, and the pressure was starting to mount as the crowd chanted for her to deliver a speech.
Khan, meanwhile, tried to make a quiet exit, but the doors had been sealed shut by Doll's AbsoluteSolver, a powerful telekinetic force that left him trapped. "Not... the doors...!" he whispered, his voice filled with fear and frustration.
V's mind raced as she stepped up to the microphone to deliver her speech. "I'll kill everyone after? It's not vain, it's extra sinister..." She plotted quietly to herself, her eyes gleaming with malice.
Doll, meanwhile, was busy firing up her AbsoluteSolver, preparing to strike at any moment. But before she could unleash her deadly power, Uzi, Y/N, and N crashed down behind her, their sudden appearance causing everyone to stare in shock and confusion.
"Ah ha! Unhand them, you fiend- " Uzi began, but then stopped short as she realized that V had been named prom queen. "I'm confused." She muttered, her brow furrowing in confusion.
Lizzy, meanwhile, had other things on her mind. "On second thought, you're way hotter than Doll! Run, idiot!" she shouted, trying to make a break for it. But before she could escape, she was flicked away by Doll's powerful telekinetic abilities.
As everyone fled for their lives, Doll used her powers to manipulate two metal rods that stabbed through V's arms, keeping her in place. Penny, the worker drone, was crushed by the AbsoluteSolver, her body crumpling under the weight of the massive force.
Doll slowly advanced towards V, a twisted smile on her face. "Привет, Ви," she said in a cold, calculated tone. The words translated to "Hello, V." And they sent a shiver down V's spine.
Doll then used her telekinetic powers to force V to relive the moment when she had killed Doll's mother. "Ладно, тебе всё понятно."Sshe said in a vengeful tone. The words meant: "Anyway, you get it." And they were filled with a deep sense of anger and hatred.
With a fierce determination in her eyes, V frantically wiggled her right arm, desperately trying to free it from its confines. With a loud, metallic clink, she finally succeeded, and her arm began to transform.
It elongated and sprouted metallic components, eventually taking the form of an automatic rifle. Without a moment's hesitation, V began firing at Doll, the sound of gunfire echoing through the room.
However, to V's surprise, the shots had no effect, as Doll was surrounded by a powerful telekinetic force field. Enraged by V's attack, Doll summoned a cleaver and hurled it with incredible force.
The blade sliced through the air, striking V's arm with incredible precision and severing it from her body. With a cold, calculated demeanor, Doll then summoned a nearby fan blade and imbued it with razor-sharp blades using her telekinetic powers.
Uzi and N watched in shock as the situation escalated beyond their wildest imaginations. Uzi exclaimed, "Holy crap, what is she doing?!"
N nervously stuttered. "This isn't what I expected at all! I guess we should... Uh..."
As Doll flung the deadly blade at V, the situation seemed hopeless. However, N quickly sprang into action, swooping in and delivering a swift kick that sent the blade hurtling to the side.
Uzi, not wanting to be outdone, hurled her own knife with precision, damaging Doll's AbsoluteSolver and causing the AS on the door to disengage, granting them all an escape.
Doll glared at Uzi with intense scrutiny, her eyes burning with a fierce anger. "Узи, ты правда на стороне Дронов-Убийц?" She spat, her voice laced with venom, which translated to: "Uzi, you would really side with the Murder Drones?"
Doll then added, "Я не единственная, кто потеряла из-за них семью." Which translated to: "I'm not the only one who's lost family to them."
Uzi stood her ground, her fists clenched tightly at her sides. "Bite me!" she retorted, her voice ringing out with a defiant tone. "Whoever started this wants us to fight. I'm not dealing with anything well, but I'm done dealing with everything alone."
N and Y/N shared a soft smile, silently conveying their agreement with Uzi's sentiment. "We move forward together, or not at all," Uzi continued, her gaze flickering between her companions.
Doll sneered, a look of derision on her face. "Как мило, но мне твоя помощь не нужна." She replied coldly, the Russian words dripping with disdain. "Cute, but I don't need help."
In a sudden burst of motion, Doll's AS pierced through N, causing him to cry out in agony. With lightning-fast reflexes, he shoved Uzi to the side and gave her a final thumbs up before the blades struck him.
Khan tried to rush in and help his daughter, but Doll was too quick. She re-sealed the door shut, cutting him off from the others.
Without missing a beat, Doll summoned her knife and hurled it towards Uzi. The deadly blade hurtled towards her hand, almost piercing the metallic skin. But at the last moment, Y/N caught the knife with lightning-fast reflexes, snatching it out of the air before it could do any harm.
Handing the knife to Uzi, Y/N offered her a reassuring smile. "You'll need this." They said softly, their voice filled with conviction. "We're in this together, sister."
Doll focused her attention on Uzi, her eyes narrowing as she attempted to use her AS to control her. But to her surprise, it wasn't working. Uzi stood her ground, her eyes blazing with a fierce determination, and the telekinetic field surrounding her seemed to be repelling the AS.
Y/N, too, found themselves in a similar position. The AS had no effect on them, and they stood by Uzi's side, ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead.
Meanwhile, N reached over for a crawling arm, a look of confusion etched on his face. "Is this-" he began to ask, before V snatched the arm from him, her teeth sinking into the metal.
"Mine!" V exclaimed triumphantly, her voice muffled by the arm in her mouth.
"Ew. You look like garbage." Lizzy teased, her voice full of amusement.
"You frickin' traitor!" V spat, turning her ire towards Lizzy.
"As if you weren't using me to try and kill everyone, Ms. Petty." Lizzy retorted, her eyes flickering with a hint of spite as she examined the severed limb. "Where does this freaking go, anyway?"
N let out a sigh of relief, grateful for the distraction from the tense situation at hand. "Thank you, Lizzy!" He said, offering her a grateful smile.
"Shut up, loser." Lizzy and V chorused in unison, their voices laced with banter.
As the battle raged on, Doll's eyes narrowed in concentration as she focused her AS powers to telekinetically control her knife. With precision and finesse, she threw the weapon towards Uzi and Y/N, who were on the defensive, trying to avoid getting hit.
Uzi's agile movements allowed her to dodge the knife as she backflipped away from danger. Meanwhile, Doll had to employ all her energy to create a telekinetic shield that could withstand Y/N's nuclear bullets. She quickly found out these bullets were more powerful and explosive than normal ones, and she had to be careful not to let her guard down.
As the fight progressed, Uzi found herself in a precarious position, and Doll took advantage of the opportunity. With lightning speed, she picked up Uzi's knife, multiplied it, and hurled the weapons at Uzi.
However, N intervened and blocked all the knives with his metal wing, much to Uzi's chagrin. "Quit saving me!" Uzi yelled.
Despite the constant barrage of attacks, N and Uzi continued to dance and dodge their opponents' moves. Y/N, on the other hand, remained focused on their weapon, firing shots at Doll relentlessly. With each explosive bullet, Doll's telekinetic shield weakened, and she struggled to keep up.
As the battle wore on, Uzi noticed a severe injury on N's side, and she grew more concerned for her friend's well-being. "Seriously, don't do that again." She warned N, knowing that his recklessness could endanger them all.
"Uzi... Ah, okay, your turn!" N said, tossing Uzi out of the way as he was hit by an oncoming table. Doll reacted quickly, levitating some nearby tables to use against Uzi, who began parkouring along them all.
But in the heat of the moment, Uzi had a sudden realization. "Wait... I'm not a Worker Drone anymore, I'm an Atomizer Drone! I almost forgot about that plotline!" she exclaimed, feeling a renewed sense of purpose and determination to win the fight.
Uzi's mind raced with excitement as she focused on replicating all of Y/N's abilities. With intense concentration, she managed to create propeller wings that sprouted from her back, and two arm cannons powered by nuclear energy.
Uzi looked at her new enhancements with a sly grin, admiring the sleek design of the arm cannons. "Hehehe... nice." She muttered under her breath.
Without a moment's hesitation, Uzi took to the air, testing out her new toys. She soared through the room, leaving a trail of nuclear blasts in her wake. Doll frantically searched for cover, but Uzi's attacks were too powerful to avoid.
In a moment of sheer determination, Uzi focused all her energy on one point, her fingertip glowing with a neon green light. She unleashed a laser beam of the same color, and it shot forth with incredible speed.
The beam pierced through Doll's telekinetic shield like a bullet through paper, striking her head at point-blank range. Doll's body went limp, and she fell to the floor, out of commission.
Uzi let out a groan of annoyance, realizing that they needed Doll for answers. "Dammit!" She exclaimed. "Well, at least I have these badass upgrades now. Thanks, Y/N!" Uzi looked over to her sibling, who gave her a thumbs up.
(A/N: No, really, think about it. Y/N replaced one of Uzi's limbs with their own, and thus, Uzi became an Atomizer Drone. Wouldn't they be technically related by blood? Or, in this case, nuclear blood?)
N chimed in, snitching on V. "V's hiding mystery stuff and being over dramatic about it!" N received a not at all playful nudge from V, who exclaimed in annoyance. "Hey! You suck!"
Uzi interrupted their bickering, holding up the key to Doll's house. "Lucky for you both, we're not done yet." She said with a sly smile.
Uzi, Y/N, N, and V arrived at Doll's house, the air was heavy with the stench of rotten garbage, and the ground was infested with crawling insects that scattered as they approached the house. Uzi was the first to step inside, and as she looked around, she couldn't help but feel a shiver run down her spine.
"Uh-oh..." She muttered under her breath, taking in the sight before her.
The room was dimly lit by neon red lights that flickered and buzzed, casting a sinister glow over the scene. Corpses and garbage were scattered haphazardly across the room, and the smell of oil and rust permeated the air.
"Hehe. Nice." V said, relishing in the moment as she took a disembodied arm to her mouth.
Uzi, however, was not amused. She snatching the arm out of V's mouth with a swift motion, scolding her. "Ugh, self-respect!" She exclaimed, wiping the oil from her fingers with a disgusted look.
The quartet split up to explore the house, each one on their own mission. Uzi wandered over to a place where corpses of worker drones lay around all the place. "Why would a worker drone-?" She paused as she got oil on her fingers. "Was she eating them?" She placed the arm into a container holding two more.
Meanwhile, N had stumbled upon two corpses hidden under a blanket in the corner of the room. He pulled back the cover, revealing the dead remains of Doll's parents. The sight made him feel sick to his stomach. "I think we found her folks..." He said.
"They didn't even taste that good." V said, picking something out of her teeth with her sharp metal claws.
"V, you kind of suck."N said with a sigh, shaking his head in disappointment.
"Yeah, I'm not doing okay." V shrugged nonchalantly, chewing on a bug.
As the trio continued to converse, Uzi wandered over to investigate something that had caught her eye. It was a name tag that belonged to Doll's mother, Yeva. Uzi couldn't help but wonder what Doll's motives were, aside from revenge against V. Was she trying to repair her parents?
Suddenly, Doll appeared behind them with a loud crack, her body glitching and warping as she repaired herself. Uzi turned around just in time to see Doll pull a bullet out of her forehead with a sickening squelch. The bullet hovered in the air, suspended by Doll's telekinetic powers.
"Как раз к ужину." She said ominously, her eyes glowing a bright red as she aimed the bullet at Uzi. The translation was clear: "Just in time for dinner."
As the shot rang out, everyone turned around, their eyes widening in shock. Uzi's quick reflexes kicked in, and she raised her hands to stop the bullet with her own telekinetic abilities. The sudden display of power shocked everyone, even Doll, who looked at Uzi in disbelief.
"Мне... Мне тебя... Жаль. Если я найду то, что ищу, то и тебе помогу." Doll said, her voice filled with sorrow as she spoke. Her words were a confusing mix of apology and a promise to help Uzi if she found what she was looking for, those being: "I... I'm sorry... For you. If I find what I'm looking for, I'll help you too."
"What?!" Uzi exclaimed, her confusion evident in her tone.
Doll started to back away slowly, her body beginning to glitch and warp as she prepared to teleport away. She could sense V getting ready to attack, and she knew she had to get out of there before it was too late.
"Извини." Doll said, her voice filled with regret. The translation was: "I am sorry."
"What? Oh, don't you dare!" Uzi shouted, rushing towards Doll before she could escape. But it was too late. Doll had teleported out of the way as V shot a missile that created a smokescreen.
"Ugh, I hate it HEEERE!!!" Uzi screamed into the heavens, her frustration and anger palpable. The plot had just thickened, and she had no idea what was going to happen next.
As the group stood in silence, Y/N suddenly spoke up, breaking the tension. "You need answers, right?" they said, their voice clear and steady. "Only Doll knows them, right? So..." Their sentence was cut short by Uzi, who interrupted them mid-sentence.
"Oh, don't even think about it! We're not gonna do that!" Uzi exclaimed, her voice filled with anger and frustration. She didn't like the idea of getting involved with Doll any more than she already had.
"Sis, we have to find her, talk to her." Y/N said, their tone calming and mature. It was an unusual change for the usually clueless and monotone sibling. "I know you don't like the idea, but as the situation would have it, we don't exactly have options."
Uzi let out a long, frustrated sigh. She knew that Y/N was right, but the thought of helping and recieving help from Doll made her metal skin crawl. "Ugh..." She muttered, her tone resigned. "Fine, but if she goes full psycho on us, that's on you."
Y/N nodded, accepting the responsibility that came with their decision. They knew that finding and aiding Doll was a risky move, but it was the only way to get the answers they needed and free their sister from her stress.
Meanwhile, a Worker Drone named Reid, was digging through the snow, where he found his missing glasses. "Ah, that's where I left my excuse to be outside right now." He said as he put his glasses on, and looked up as a Murder Drone pod came hurling towards him.
He got out of the way, only to get thrown back by an explosion. He survived, only for another pod to arrive. The pod's passenger came out and slices Reid's robot head off. It was Tessa, certified technician for JCJenson.
"Righty-o. Work to do. Eh, J?" She asked, as J flied in next to her, newly rebuilt and reprogrammed, handing Tessa a keychain. "Maintenance work..." She said, pressing one of the buttons on the keychain, making the pod emit a beeping noise.
From the rest of the pods, four Murder Drones emerged that were unlike any other before seen, each one distinct in their design and purpose. The orange drone glowed with a fiery light, the cyan drone emanated an icy aura, the purple drone crackled with electricity, and the silver drone shone with an earthy glow.
