Chapter Text

It was a nice, beautiful day in the bunker after Cyn's defeat, drones are celebrating each other like there's no ending. Some are playing in the gym, others go outside knowing that there's no threat that they have to worry about.

Uzi on the other hand, feels that something was wrong,

s o m e t h i n g

It feels too safe, too safe to be good. With the Solver on her side, kept being annoying but what's worse is that Uzi kept getting nightmares. Nightmares that seems to tell something, something... horrific yet reality.

While Uzi was thinking about it inside her room, N knocked on the door asking Uzi if he could come inside or not. Uzi, without feeling guilty let N come inside her room and ask him how in the world he came inside.

" Uzi, you beat Cyn already. Your people let us inside in exchange for them going outside to explore. Don't you remember that? You know... that deal. "

What N says made Uzi realise she was dreaming. Dreaming like crazy. A flashback of her killing Cyn pops up in her mind. Uzi then quickly asks N if they can go outside... together. Without hesitation, N says yes.

As they were on their way outside, they saw a lot of people happy with each other, like society has accepted each other, forming a relationship between each other. But Uzi feels like she doesn't like it. It feels like it wants to destroy it. Something on her mind says so.

As they approach the door Uzi remember something and asks N one question.

" What actually happened to me when you and V were searching for me? "

Chapter Text

All she got was silence from N. He looks nervous and worried, as if N was scared to answer Uzi's question. But all that silence cut off as Khan yells at them, looking pleased to see them together.

Did Khan really love to see them together?

" Uzi my daughter! Where are you guys going? "

Khan asked them with curiosity but still happy. They responded that they want to walk around outside, taking a nice atmosphere and of course, want to see the others.

As they walk outside on the way to meet them, they are having a conversation.

" Uzi, isn't it nice that everything is peaceful now? "

Uzi was silent for a moment and said, " Y-yeah N. It feels… different. "

" Erm Uzi, what do you mean by ' different '? " ask N with concern.

" No no no I mean everything looks peaceful... and calm like... I've never seen it before you know. "

Uzi was curious. Why would she even say that ; of course she likes it when it's peaceful but something inside her head tells the complete opposite...

Kill everyone.

Make them suffer.

You'll be happy after that.

Do you understand?

Uzi didn't want to think about it anymore so she just kept focusing on herself. As they approach the building that seems to look completely functional, they meet V and Lizzy on the top of the building. They seem to be playing... chess together? Not to mention their ' red-eyed sentinel pet ' was there too.

" Hi V! What're you doing? " ask N with excitement.

" Hi N. Nothing. Just playing chess with Lizzy. " V tease N for a second. Meanwhile Uzi approached Lizzy as she was texting on her phone while playing.

" Hey Lizzy what are you doing? "

" Nothing. Just texting someone that you shouldn't know ok? "

" Alright jeez. Mind telling me where's Thad? "

" Erm.. last time I saw him was at the building over there. " Lizzy pointed at the building on the opposite side of them.

" Alright thanks Lizzy. "

Uzi looked at that small building that Lizzy pointed to, which Uzi thought that Thad and his jock friends used as their training room as the court in school is restricted to use after school hours.

Uzi then said to N that she wants to meet Thad down there. She went down to the building entrance and went inside and was surprised that Thad and his friends were training like they were having a competition.

Uzi never saw this moment before then suddenly Thad saw Uzi and greeted her. Uzi greeted back and asked Thad about why he chose this very, very small building.

" Well we think that this space is enough for us and it's close to the entrance so we don't have to walk in a long distance. Am I right guys? "

All the jocks shouted yes which made Uzi understand now. 

" Also we are having a competition with the enemy team next week so I'll be busy. Don't mind me. " Thad said.

" Alright Thad. Thanks. " Uzi said back.

She then leaves the building and went outside. When she closed the door, she suddenly heard a voice ; a voice that sounded very... very familiar.

" Do you miss me? "

Chapter Text

That voice...

That voice that haunts Uzi, day and night, wherever she goes always talking, watching from the inside. Uzi didn't bother to respond to the voice but instead flew up to where N, V and Lizzy were.

Uzi then arrives at the top and asks N if she can go back to the bunker.

" Sure why not? " N said.

Uzi then goes back to the entrance. The reason why Uzi asked N to go back is unknown. It feels that she was stalked for some reason. As soon as Uzi knocked on the door, she was greeted by Nori, who's still in her ' crab ' form.

" Oh hey there U-uzi. Where did you come from? "

" Hi mum. I just came from that building where N was. " Uzi said with a tired expression. Nori realised that. " Uhm... where's dad? "

Nori then said, " Your dad is doing some maintenance with the others. Uhm sweetie, why do you look so.... tired? Is anything wrong? "

" N-nope! Nothing mum. "

All that was Uzi's response to Nori, which leads Nori to a sad, confused and shocked look as Uzi walks by her. As Uzi passed by her, she swears she saw that Uzi was glitching for a second. Is it just her confusion or is she seeing things wrong?

Uzi arrived at her house with no one inside. She went into her room, looking tired as her tail pops out and speaks to her.

" You look tired host Uzi. Mind getting some oil? "

Uzi didn't respond to a single word that the Solver says but instead just looked at her tail and felt... depressed.

" You don't have to ignore me, didn't you host Uzi. Also why wouldn't you wear a bow? It looks nice for you. "

Uzi finally responded with a slightly angry tone on it.

" Shut up you tail talker. It's my body and I do whatever I want! Understand? "

The Solver replied " You do not have to say that host Uzi. You'll see soon enough. "

" What do you mean ' soon enough '? "

" Just wait and see. "

Then her tail disappeared and led Uzi to many unanswered questions. Did she even defeat the Solver? If so why is it back? What is it going to do to her? Plenty of questions flooded Uzi's mind as she looked to her mirror.

Her reflection glitches somewhat into a bunch of ' camera ' things but it's eyes are different, somewhat glowing purple with yellow tint in it, just like her eyes. Then it glitches back to herself. Another question comes to her mind...

Was she even real in this state?

Chapter Text

No

no

no

" What am I thinking about? This doesn't feel... right. "

Without hesitation Uzi went to her bed and went sleep mode. At this point Uzi kept hearing voices during her sleep, which she did not appreciate.

" Listen to me. "

" We are one. "

" I'm the best of you. "

" You know.... if you were to listen to me... "

" Just for once- "

Uzi then suddenly woke up after hearing that creepy voice, realising that she had slept for 6 hours. She went off her bed then she decided to peek outside her room and saw Nori and Khan on the table, seemingly discussing something... important.

" Hun, I feel like something's wrong with our daughter. "

" And... what could that be? " Khan drinks his gasoline while listening to Nori.

" Listen, hun. I know it may sound stupid but I swear I saw our daughter glitched for a second the last time I saw her. It almost feels like... something is different to our daughter. "

" Nah don't you think like that Nori. Maybe you're just seeing things after all. " Khan said while slurping his gasoline.

Before Nori could reply, Uzi stepped out of the room, and went to them and asked them if they could allow her to go outside. At first they said no but eventually it's a yes. Uzi then stepped outside her home and slammed the door shut.

Khan didn't really pay much attention to her because he was enjoying drinking his gasoline but Nori just kept looking at Uzi, watching her from the beginning till she shut the door.

" I should probably follow her. "

Nori then said to Khan that she needs to go outside, claiming that she forgot something. Khan immediately agrees and lets her go outside. Nori then tries every possibility to find Uzi before she arrives at the main door. Nori then arrived and checked the door to see if anyone did open the door and surprisingly Uzi did open the door 5 minutes prior before Nori could arrive there.

Nori was devastated, but then remembered something. How could she even reach here in 10 minutes? In a logical sense the door made a lot of noise when opening, but Nori hadn't heard a single noise before she came here.

Did Uzi really open the door? The question that keeps Nori thinking. Meanwhile Uzi was outside the entrance. As she is about to fly with her wings, she hears the same voice again.

" Don't go yet. "

" Meet me at -346 67. "

Uzi thinks, thinking if she wants to follow the voice or fly up to meet the others. After a while she decided to follow what the voice says. Uzi fly to the coordinates that the voice gave to her. Eventually she arrived at her destination.

" Wait. Isn't this the... "

Yes, she arrived at the cabin where she ended up killing Darren and tearing Rebecca apart. The cabin still has oil and flesh sticks around the walls which add a horrific look to it. Uzi was thinking again.. again and again until she heard another voice.

" Come inside... I want to talk with you. It'll be okay... I'll promise. "

After the voice disappeared, Uzi went inside, and it looked horrendous. She even found her flashlight and her backpack when suddenly the door closed behind her. She immediately opened up her flashlight, unaware what was waiting behind her.

" Greetings host Uzi. I miss you. "

Chapter Text

Meanwhile, V and Lizzy were busy playing chess while N played with V's ' sentinel ' pet. At the same time, they were having a conversation.

" Hey V. How did you actually survive the incident? "

" Survive what? "

" Duh. You know.. that incident. " Lizzy pointed at the sentinel.

" Ah... that one. After I stayed behind to make sure Uzi, N and ' Tessa ' dropped down the elevator to catch up to Doll, I fought the sentinels till.... "

" Till what, V? " Lizzy asked.

" Till I pet them and listen to me! I never thought commanding them would be that easy. " V replied.

" Ahh. Erm V, I want to say something- umm look over there. " Lizzy pointed at N being played by the sentinel.

" H-hey guys. Can you help me please? I need... emergency. "

V looked pissed off looking at N. V then said to Lizzy " Nah nevermind, N surely gets it later. Soo.. what are you going to say again? "

" Oh yeah. Do you think Doll will ever come back? "

" Nah probably not. Her core got eaten from what I heard from N. Besides, you have me. " V pointed to herself.

Lizzy was sad at first but then she accepted it. " Aww thank you V. "

As soon as Lizzy finished talking, N finally got off by the sentinel and asked them. " Guys. Do you have any idea where Uzi is? "

They both shake their heads as a no. N started to get worried about her so he tried to text her but no reply. N then fly off to find her.

" Where could she be? " N thought to himself.

N then arrived at the door and was greeted by Ron. Ron greeted N with a happy face and let N inside. N then goes as fast as he can to the Doorman's house. When he arrived, he knocked on the door to see if anyone was inside and relieved that Nori opened the door for him.

" Hello ma'am. May I ask where Uzi is? I haven't seen her for almost half a day already. "

" Wait. I thought she was with you. " Nori replied, making N more worried about Uzi. N asked where he could come inside or not and Nori greeted him inside.

" So you're saying that you haven't seen Uzi half a day? Totally suspicious. " Khan said.

" Yea.. I was wondering if she was with you guys and turns out to be false. Do you guys have any clue on where she might have been? "

" No idea. " They both said.

" Aww that's unfortunate. By the way, did Uzi act so suspicious lately? "

" Huh? What do you mean by suspicious? She loves my beautiful doors. " Khan said proudly.

" No I mean this early morning she asked me if I remember what happened to her when me and V were searching for her. I.. didn't answer because I thought she was daydreaming. She also looks very... tired. "

" I also feel very strange with Uzi lately. When I greeted her at the door she also looked very tired. I also saw her ' glitched ' for a second but my eyes could be wrong. " Nori said.

" Nori, why didn't you tell me all of that? " Khan interrupted.

" Hun, I already tell you and you were bust drinking your favourite gasoline. "

" Guys! That doesn't matter now. We need to find Uzi. " said N.

" Wait, are you guys going to find... Uzi? " said Thad after he purposely opened the door.

They all look at Thad who just finished training. " What do you mean Thad have you seen her??? " said N, shaking Thad demanding for answers.

" Hold on before you say anything just why wouldn't you knock the door first kiddo? " said Khan.

" Sorry Mr. Doorman. I just heard from outside that you guys were talking about Uzi gone missing so I just want to see what happened. "

" Anyway Thad, that doesn't matter. Have you seen her? " ask N hoping that he knows but...

" Unfortunately N, no. But the last time I saw her was at the training centre where she met me and we talked about why we chose that location for our training centre. "

N sigh, still having no answer of where Uzi might have been. He hopes that Uzi will come back...

sooner.

Chapter Text

Uzi turned around and saw nothing but darkness in front of her. Quickly she used her flashlight that she found and pointed it everywhere she could in 360°. Yet all she sees is nothing but flesh and oil splattered around her.

" Where are you creepy voice! " was all Uzi screamed but no answer.. that is until 0.666 seconds.

" I've been waiting for this moment. This moment... to talk with you. "

Suddenly all the oils and flesh around her started to circling around her, eventually forming a circle around her. Uzi gets more scared so she tries to use her Solvers to push the oil away...

but it didn't work.

Slowly the circle of oils started getting bigger and bigger and bigger until it reached 666 centimetres in diameter length. Uzi was scared, afraid to move thinking that she could be killed at any time ; adding that she stood in the centre of the circle making it more creepy.

Eventually everything stopped moving. As Uzi was about to step away suddenly a claw emerged from her back and stuck her in her position, making her unable to move.

After that, both of her hands are pinned on the floor, which makes things worse as she couldn't use her Solver powers to escape. Uzi was currently in a lying down state where she could only see in one direction.

Then, a camera Solver pops out from her back and looks straight at her.

" Aww~ does that hurt? " the Solver teased.

" Bite me! Let me go you eldritch goop! "

" Unfortunately I can't, because this is where it all started. "

" What do you mean? " Uzi asked in a nervous tone.

" Don't remember? Here! " the Solver's eye camera flashes Uzi as a flashback of her transformation and kills Darren and Rebecca because of the hunger she had.

The flashback ended as Uzi was traumatised by what she looked like in the flashback. Uzi tried to look away from the one-eyed camera but she can't due to her head stuck in her position right now.

" What do you want from me? " Uzi tried to calm down, hopefully the Solver let her away as she wished, but it didn't go as she thought.

" Easy. You are my only host in this entire universe. So in order to seal my existence, we need to merge together in order for us to stay alive. "

" But at what cost? Killing innocent drones for oil? Bite me! I'll never accept your stupid deal! " Uzi rants herself out, making the Solver more annoyed.

" You're fortunate for me to live inside you. Without me, you'd already died during your battle with my previous host. "

" But I made the decision to eat the black hole to prevent Cyn from eating it. So technically I saved YOU from death. " Uzi ranted again.

" Annoyed expression. You do not understand the true goal here my host Uzi. Your work is not done.. yet. "

" What do you mean by ' not done '?? I saved this planet from utter destruction that Cyn caused! "

" Come on host Uzi. You should've realised by now. You still need some oil to survive, alongside the disassembly drones. Your work is not done yet. Be a good host and get some. "

" Shut up! You're not in control and you can't make me! I'm the host so I do whatever I want! "

" Fine. I think it's time for me to go. You can have a rest... for now."

Suddenly everything went back as normal as Uzi stood up and was curious and nervous, thinking...

What was that conversation for?

She's still thinking about it. But then she decided to go back to the bunker, realising that she was gone for half the day.

Chapter Text

Back at the bunker, N, Nori, Khan and Thad are inside, still thinking about where they could start finding Uzi.

" What if we start where we last saw Uzi? I last saw her at the training centre. " said Thad.

" He has a good point. Why don't we just start there? Maybe we can get some clues. " Khan added.

N replied, " But Uzi did come back to me, V and Lizzy after she left the training centre. It wouldn't make sense that- "

Suddenly they were interrupted by a knock on the door. N immediately went to the door and opened it, revealing Uzi on the other side.

" UZI! You know how much I miss you! " N said, grabbing Uzi and hugging her like a puppy.

" R-relax N. I-I just went away like- half a day. It's not that serious. " said Uzi.

" It is serious Uzi. Where were you in half a day? " Nori sharply looks at Uzi.

" Relax mum. I... just went off the city to explore some areas that I've never seen before in my life. It's not a big deal mum. Anyway I want to sleep. Now if you can, excuse me. "

Uzi went to her room and shut the door close. All of them looked at her, seemingly relieved that she came back. Thad and N then say goodbye to Nori and Khan and leave the house.

But something disturbs Nori. As if her daughter is hiding something from her. Surely she gets that yellow tint on her eyes due to the Solver influence but she believes that ' there's more than that '.

Nori then went to Uzi's room and tried to open the door. As she expected, it was locked. Nori knew this was going to happen since her daughter is known for her ' rebellious angsty teen '.

" Maybe I should use my Solver to open the door I guess? That'll work. " Nori thought as she spawned her Solver to open the door but it was blocked by an administrator that was labelled as ' Unknown Entity '.

" What? Who the heck is ' Unknown Entity '? " Nori thought.

All that Nori could say was out of voice. She wants to tell Khan but he's busy with his city exploration plan so she decided to keep it to herself and went to bed instead.

Meanwhile Uzi was in her room, laying on her bed, thinking about what just happened at the cabin just now. The same sentence kept repeating in her mind.

" Easy. You are my only host in this entire universe. So in order to seal my existence, we need to merge together in order for me to stay alive. "

" Come on host Uzi. You should've realised by now. You still need some oil to survive, alongside the disassembly drones. Your work is not done yet. Be a good host and get some. "

Get some oil Get some oil Get some oil Get some oil Get some oil-

Suddenly her visor started to crack and Uzi immediately went to check on the mirror, only to realise that it was not her reflection.

It was her ' spooky hollow snake crab ' reflection.

Uzi keeps thinking... what was the Solver's plan after all? What will it do to her? And also...

What am I?

The same, three word sentence keeps repeating in her mind, as if she needs an answer sooner. She then doesn't want to think much about it so she went to sleep mode.

It then cuts to N as he arrives at the building where V and Lizzy are, who is seen playing Gin Rummy after getting bored in chess.

" Hey guys I'm back. " N said.

" Hi N. So did Uzi come back? You look... very happy. "

" Of course she comes back! I knew she would come home sooner. Anyway have you seen J, V? It's been a while since I last saw her. "

" Yes I do. See that spaceship right there? " V pointed at the spaceship underneath the corpse spire. " That's where she was. "

" Okay, thanks V. "

" No problem. Have fun with J. "

N then flies down to the corpse spire where the spaceship is and V does indeed tell the truth. J was there. It seems like she was buying her time to... repair the spaceship? For what?

" Hi J. I come here to ask you a question. "

" Oh hello there, useless N. What is it? I'm busy right now. Can't you see? " J replied with annoying tone.

" I was wondering why you were so focused on fixing the spaceship, as if you want to leave this planet. " asked N.

J replied, " Well first, I want to go on a vacation. Second, This is our spaceship, not just mine. "

" Oh okay then. Guess I'm going to V and Lizzy to play with them. "

" Wait. I thought you were going to play with your purple toaster pet. "

N with a serious tone replied, " Firstly, she is sleeping. Second, don't you ever dare to call her with that name again! "

" Fine whatever. "

N then leaves the corpse spire to go play with V and Lizzy as J was fixing their spaceship.

Chapter Text

It then cuts to Uzi as she was still on her bed, unable to sleep due to her mind thinking of saying ' no '. As she is still struggling to sleep, she decided to just wake up and get off from her bed and sit on her chair instead. At the same time her tail pops out.

" Miss me? "

" Shut up life-ruiner. I don't. What do you want now? Also what do you mean by my work is not done yet? "

" Still bragging about ' just now ' I'd say. "

" That didn't answer my questions you- "

Suddenly her visor starts glitching as a text on her visor that says...

WARNING = CRITICAL OVERHEATING

OIL LEVEL 18%

OIL DESPERATELY NEEDED

The Solver just looks very amused, as if it was playing with her.

" Guess you now need to find some food host Uzi. "

Uzi didn't answer anything. She then gets up from her chair and starts holding her visor as she goes to open the door and peek outside.

" Phew! Glad nobody's outside. Assuming mum and dad go to work I guess. " Uzi said in relief.

The Solver interrupted her and said, " You may be safe right now. But one day you'll have to do it. "

" What? "

" Do it. "

The Solver then disappeared so does the tail which left Uzi really confused. What does it mean by ' do it '? Plenty of questions flooded her mind. Uzi then didn't hesitate so she tried to find some oil supply in her house but found none.

Uzi didn't know what to do. There's no oil in her house yet she was overheating like crazy. She then had an idea then she teleported away as her oil level was in...

WARNING = CRITICAL OVERHEATING

OIL LEVEL 13%

YOU NEED OIL YOU IDIOT

Back to N, V and Lizzy playing outside but this time V was riding a sentinel circling Lizzy around that made her feel dizzy for a moment.

" Hey Lizzy~ I dare you to take a picture of me riding this pet. "

At first Lizzy thought it was easy, but the tables have turned. V rode the sentinel really fast circling her which makes it a challenge for Lizzy to take a picture of V.

N is just sitting at the side, watching V and Lizzy having fun together. N thought for a second...

" What if me and Uzi did the same thing? She probably would say no wouldn't she? "

N knew Uzi needed some rest from what N last saw her, so he didn't even try to text her or even visit her in the first place. Moreover, he thinks that Nori still has doubts about him for.. killing her he assumes.

His daydreaming stops when Lizzy asks him for help.

" Hey N! Mind helping me here? This challenge looks way harder than I thought it would be. " Lizzy asked.

" I guess yeah..? I love doing anything. " N replied.

N then goes to Lizzy and helps her to catch a picture of V riding the sentinel and at first it was really hard but eventually...

they got it.

V was very shocked, amused and excited to see the picture, thinking it was impossible to capture a very high quality picture at such a high speed that she goes.

" Wow, never I expected you guys managed to take a picture. I'm impressed! " V thanked Lizzy and N.

" No problem V. " Lizzy said.

Suddenly they hear a loud sound coming from the corpse spire. It was J piloting her spaceship as the spaceship then goes to the sky and leaves the Copper-9's atmosphere.

N and V watch it as Lizzy as usual take a picture of it. They knew Lizzy would do that. Then V got a message from J.

" Hey V. I need to find a lot of oil so I left this planet to go to other places to get oil so I'll be gone for.... emm.... a week I presume so please watch N very carefully ok? Make sure he doesn't do anything stupid. Bye from J. "

N look at the message, making a ' wtf ' face as V took the message unseriously. Lizzy then ask.

" Where in the other places can you get a lot of oil? "

N and V rather than not answering Lizzy's question so they replied, " We rather not say to nor would we want to share it anyway. "

This leaves Lizzy very upset and annoyed she didn't take it seriously. Meantime it cuts back to Uzi peeking around the corner, watching 2 drones working in a very... dimmed hallway. Uzi also try to hear their conversations.

" Hey Marcus. Did you finish fixing the lights yet? "

" Nope. Not yet Max. I'm still fixing it. How's the floor? "

" Pretty good. I'm almost done. You fix it quickly, then we get to take a break and play Gin Rummy with the gang. "

" Alright. "

Uzi was peeking, looking at them like a delicious meal serving in front of her, her initial thought is to wait a little bit, but her mind says otherwise. Suddenly an overheating sign appeared on her visor.

WARNING = OVERHEATING

OIL LEVEL 5%

GO GET SOME OIL YOU F***ING IDIOT

Uzi then couldn't hold any longer so she stepped back a bit then she accidentally hit buckets of paint behind her, making it collapse and fell on the floor, overheard by the guys.

" Umm.. Marcus do you hear that? Seems like it came from that side. " Max pointed at the corner where Uzi is.

" Yeah don't worry Max. I'll go check it out. "

Uzi didn't know what to do. She would definitely get caught doing that. And her father definitely would grounded her for leaving the house without their permission, and messing the floor. Echoing voices hit over Uzi as it says...

KILL THEM

KILL THEM

KILL THEM

Marcus then checks the other corner just to see a bunch of paint buckets feel to the ground as it was a messy clean to do.

" Hey Max. Seems like the paint spilled. After we finish doing our job can we clean the mess- "

Marcus then turns around to see Max disappear from his position, leaving Marcus alone in a dimmed hallway. Marcus felt nervous as he approached where the last time he saw Max stand.

" Max where are you? "

He goes to where he last saw him and suddenly a dot of oil falls down from the ceiling. Marcus was scared then looked up... just to see Max's body was hanging up there. Marcus tries to touch it but it falls in front of him.

Marcus then looked at the body. All of his oils are sucked cleanly. His head was still intact meaning someone bit him. Marcus then thinks that it could be a disassembly drone but they usually ripped their head off, so who was it?

While Marcus was thinking, at the same time he grabs his walkie talkie to inform Khan. Just as he was about to press the call button, a solver symbol appears on his wrist and cuts his hand off.

Marcus tries to scream but then soon a tape comes out of nowhere and taped his mouth, making him silent. Marcus then sees a figure at the end of the hallway, reveals to be Uzi with the absolute solver's symbol on her visor.

" Kh-han's daughter? Is that... you? " Marcus muffled.

Uzi dashed to him and pinned Marcus on the wall, giving her last words to Marcus before she killed him.

" Nee-eed oi-iiiil to sur-- vvive....... "

Just as then, she killed him and sucked his oil to the very cleanest. Her visor then turns to her normal eyes as she knelt down to her knees and looked at Marcus and Max's body.

" What.. have I d-done? "

Uzi then looked around to see if there was anyone watching the scene. As nobody seems to be around, she thinks it was safe, but then she was horrified to see a surveillance camera on the corner where she was peeking before, meaning it had captured everything.

Uzi was scared, afraid of knowing that Khan will know soon, she then grabbed a piece of cloth then sealed the camera. She then teleported away to somewhere else.

Chapter Text

Back to N, V and Lizzy after watching J take off from Copper-9, they get a message from Khan that says...

" N! V! QUICK! COME TO THE HOUSE RIGHT NOW! WE NEED TO TALK! LITERALLY RIGHT NOW! BE HERE IN 5 MINUTES! "

At first N and V didn't understand what Khan was talking about that made him very, very mad. Lizzy then ask them.

" What's wrong? "

" Well, Khan asked both of us to come to his house right now. If you want to come with us then we don't mind. " V said.

" Cool. I would've been bored anyway so I might just follow you two. No questions. " Lizzy said.

They then fly towards the entrance to greet Ron again and then fly to the Doorman's house. They knocked on the door and suddenly were grabbed inside by Khan. Inside the house were also Nori and Thad, but Uzi was nowhere to be seen.

" Soo... did you two murdered my co-workers by any chance today? " Khan asked with anger on his face.

" Khan, we've promised ourselves not to kill any workers anymore. Plus we've been outside the entire day so it couldn't be us. " N spitting facts.

" I can confirm that. " said Lizzy while on her phone texting.

" If it's not you guys, then who in the world would kill my co-workers??? " Khan angrily asked.

" Mmmm... Khan, mind if you bring us to the scene? We might find some answers there. " V said.

" Fine. All of you follow me. " Khan said, all of them follow Khan to the crime scene.

They walked from the house for 3 minutes but soon they arrived at the scene. There, there were a bunch of worker drone detectives trying to find a clue on who might do it.

Khan asked one of the detectives, Sarah. " Did you find anything yet? "

Sarah then starts her long speech.....

" So uhm boss... we try our best to find who the culprit is. Based on the ceiling being broken and the scratches on the wall, we couldn't figure out who might have done it yet. We scanned the entire area, finding fingerprints all around the scene, but there is no evidence. All that we have is these scratches on the wall. Adding that you said it wasn't the disassembly drones, led us to almost zero clue. "

" Alright thank you anyway. Guys do you have any ideas? " Khan asked all of them.

" So far... what the detective said was true. I have no idea who it might be. " Thad said and Lizzy agreed with him.

" Hun, I will say, I have no idea but do you know where our daughter is by any chance? I haven't seen her since we left for work this morning. " Nori said.

" Oh yeah Uzi! Nope I haven't. Have you guys seen her? " Khan said, pointing at N and V.

" Nope we haven't seen her this entire day. Sorry. " N and V replied.

" Wait a minute! I have a theory. What if..... Uzi did this? " Thad bluntly said.

" Nope! Never would I trust that Thad. I know she wouldn't hurt anyone. ESPECIALLY after Cyn's defeat. " N replied.

" It's just a theory. A theory N. Don't take my words that hard. "

While they were all discussing, Lizzy found something.

" Hey Khan. Do you have any idea why this cloth was here by any chance? " Lizzy asked Khan.

" Nope. I don't remember that cloth being there....- "

Lizzy then without any hesitation took off the cloth from the wall, revealing a surveillance camera that was behind it. All of them were shocked, even Sarah. Thad then stood out and said...

" Wait! This surveillance camera might give us the answers of who might have done it. "

All of them agreed and went to the surveillance room. Meanwhile, it cuts back to the Cabin Fever Labs entrance where Uzi is seen teleported and starts running...

run

run

and run...

until she arrived at the front church.

Uzi panted. Still holding her breath because she was running from the top all the way to the bottom. Uzi then hears the Solver again.

" Come inside. "

At first Uzi doubted it and wanted to go back, but she decided to go to the church after all, thinking that the others might have kicked Uzi out already for killing Marcus and Max because of hunger. At least that's what Uzi thought.

Uzi check the inside. It was empty. The big BIG hole was sealed thanks to her and N with Nori's help doing this while trying to restore the planet. She went inside and walked very slowly...

slowly

slow-

until she suddenly felt pain in her chest. Uzi holds it at first, but the pain was unbearable until she fell because of the miserable pain. Uzi looks at her chest, realising that some of her oil is oozing slowly as the oil goes in front of her and starts forming itself.

" What... what is that...? " Uzi thought.

The oil slowly forms itself, looking to be a worker drone. At first Uzi thought it would be Cyn, since she was the only drone she could've thought of. But her assumption ends when the oil finally forms itself revealing to be... herself?

Uzi was scared. It looks EXACTLY like her. Same body, same wings and tail, even its clothes are the same ; including her beanie. The only difference she could see was its eyes are completely yellow instead of Uzi's purple yellowish tint.

" Hello host Uzi. Like my new body? "

It was the Solver. The Solver itself. Quickly Uzi stepped back and tried to use her Solver but both her hands got cut by the Solver and got pinned at the pillar by the claw.

" Still using it? Come on host Uzi. I'm in front of you. " the Solver feels annoyed and has to do this every time.

" BITE ME YOU COPY! Why are you me! " Uzi asked in a very angry tone.

" Well it seems that you have eaten a lot of oil from what I inspect. And seeing you running until here, I feel like it's best to show the true myself here. "

" As for me! Why are you showing yourself as me! "

" It seems like you forget something my dear host. "

" Huh? What is it? " Uzi asked as the Solver came closer until it met the eyes.

" WE... ARE... ONE...! And honestly I feel like you wouldn't accept it, but it's the truth that you must accept. "

Uzi replied, " Nonsense! I will kill you like I did with Cyn. "

The Solver added, " Well if you want to kill me for good it is possible, but since we are ONE, if you kill me, you'd kill yourself. "

Uzi gritted her teeth. She took a breath and asked, " Just what do you want from me? "

" I want to help you host Uzi. I don't want to die and so do you. In order to seal ourselves to not die and protect ourselves even further, we should merge our bodies together. That way, it is impossible for us to die. "

Uzi was feeling a bit skeptical. " Protect ourselves from who? "

" Them. "

" Them? "

" Yes. Them. The ones... "

" What do you mean by ' the ones '? "

" Them! The ones you put so much trust in them now start to hunt you down to kill you because they figured out you're responsible for the kills you've made! "

Uzi was shocked. " No... no..... NO! They wouldn't kill me! Especially N! "

The Solver shook its head and said, " Remember that surveillance camera you saw before? "

On Uzi's thought she thinks that the Solver is lying. But on the logical side, she felt... that's what they would do if they ever saw her again.

Uzi said, " I... I thought the same thing after you... said that... BUT I won't fall down to your influence! "

The Solver asked, " Annoyed expression. You seem to still not understand everything. So would you like to merge with me? I... no. WE can protect ourselves from those who tried to kill us just because we exist! Final answer... yes or no...? "

Uzi insists and replies, " I won't believe anything you say until I see it through myself. "

The Solver was annoyed. Never thought it would expect Uzi to resist the request. The Solver replied, " Alright let's do this, shall we? "

" Huh? " Uzi asked.

The Solver then turned from the so-called ' Uzi's copy ' to a large entity known as the eldritch. Uzi was shocked, nervous but at the same time she realised something.

" Why does it look the same as my reflection? " Uzi thought.

The Solver, knowing what Uzi was thinking about and replied...

" Remember me? I'm the best of you. The TRUE you. "

" Bite me! You are not me. Never will be. " Uzi replied back.

" Oh really? HOW ABOUT NOW? "

The Solver's voice then suddenly changed to... Uzi's voice? Uzi was scared, realising that the Solver is slowly becoming like her entirely.

" I am not here to replace you, host Uzi. I'm here to help you. " The Solver then changed expression. " I want to help you... from them. Those who now want to kill you. "

" And how can you prove that? " Uzi asked with caution.

The Solver replied, " Guess I have to show you now for my trust. "

Suddenly Uzi's visor glitch and a text pop up that says...

PLAYING : CAMERA_15

"' It shows that everyone was shocked by the reveal that Uzi was the killer all along. It also shows that Khan looks pretty angry and everyone agreeing on something, including N. "'

The shot ends as Uzi is mortified to see the footage, realising the Solver was telling the truth.

" I... I.. Why would they want to do that...? " Uzi asked.

" They see us as a threat as soon as we start killing people to survive. That's why I'm asking you to merge with me. We can protect ourselves, defend ourselves from any harm or danger against them. "

Uzi thought for a second. She thinks that merging with her ' Solver version of herself ' might actually be a good idea. Uzi then thought back again at the footage and gritted her teeth and said...

" If they want to kill me then they can bite ME for that! I won't be easily taken down. I have you with me. "

The Solver was shocked with Uzi's confidence in its explanation and asked again.

" So would you want to merge with me? "

" Absolutely. " Uzi said.

" Let's do this. "

Suddenly the Solver turned into a large puddle of oil and slowly rose from the floor as it lunged on Uzi as it completely swallowed her and made Uzi fall from her pinned position and purple yellowish tint of lightning sparks between them as a popup of a text displayed that says...

Chapter Text

Cuts to the bunker where they all arrived at the surveillance room as Khan approached one of the computers and turned it on, revealing a lot of camera footage, watching and capturing everything the camera can do.

" Ok. Let's find where the footage is............. and done! It's here. " said Khan with excitement in his tone.

" This time we'll figure out who killed them. " N said.

" Yes! We will punish the killer for good. " Nori added more.

" Sit back guys and let me do my work. "

Khan said to everyone as Khan reloaded the footage of the camera. The others watch the screen, waiting for the reveal of the killer.

" Ok let's preview what happened 3 hours ago. " Khan said as he starts the footage video.

3 HOURS AGO

"' Marcus and Max arrived at the scene, preparing to work as they unloaded their equipment to start their work. "'

PAUSED

Khan paused the video and said, " Wait let's fasten the video. " Everyone agrees.

2.4 HOURS AGO

"' Uzi was seen peeking around the corner, seemingly looking at them doing their work like normal. Uzi then was seen holding her visor and stepped back until she hit a bunch of buckets with paint. "'

PAUSED

" Wait paused! Why is Uzi there? " N asked.

" I also have the same question. " Thad added.

" No no no. This can't be right..? " Nori added again with a nervous tone.

" Let's watch it anyways. " Khan said, unpausing the video.

UNPAUSED

"' Uzi then ran away from the camera's sight as Marcus went to the buckets of paint and at the same time Max got taken up to the ceiling. "'

PAUSED

" Where did Uzi go? " N asked, worried about her.

" Another question. Who or what drags Max up to the ceiling? " Sarah pointed out.

" Do we even have to deal with this again? " V asked, seemingly bored.

" V! We have to. For the bunker's safety. Me and you agree with it remember? " N said.

" Ugh fine... " V agreeing with N while Lizzy nodded.

" So are we ready to unpaused it now? " Khan asks everyone which all of them say yes.

" Alr-right. Unpausing.... "

UNPAUSED

"' Marcus then looks back to see Max disappear from where he was and he goes to where Max was supposed to be and looks up to see Max's body fall over. Marcus was shocked and was about to scream but something silenced him. Soon after he seemingly looked at one position then got dashed by what was revealed to be Uzi. Shortly after, Uzi kills him and sucked all of his oil and turns to normal after that. She looks to be... very scared and sees the surveillance camera as she grabs a cloth and covers it up, making the video go black until now. "'

END OF FOOTAGE

" No.. no.. it can't be real... " N said.

" Holy sh*t I was right all along. " Thad added.

At this point, everyone was horrified by what they just saw. All of them went silent, have no idea what to say as Nori stepped in and said...

" My daughter..... Why would she kill them! Gosh I will punish her for good this time! " Khan angrily questions himself.

" Hun, calm down. Let's find Uzi together. I'm sure she didn't mean to do that. "

" I agree with you Miss. Let's find her. " Lizzy replied.

" Yes. I agree with my bestie~ " V replied, holding Lizzy with her hand.

" So do we all agree? Uzi haven't come back yet tho. She could be anywhere at this point. " Khan said.

" I'd say we start finding her tomorrow, since it was late night already. " Nori said and everyone agrees.

They all went back to their houses to sleep. It cuts to Sarah as she is about to open her door room, she noticed something was off.

" Why isn't the door locked? I swear I locked it this morning. " Sarah thought.

Sarah didn't think much of it anyway so she went inside as her room looked normal. Nothing was wrong..... at least that's what she thought. Sarah then went to her bed and went to a ' deep sleep ' mode.

Before she could sleep, something teleported in front of her, which reveals to be Uzi. She looks a little bit different, with tentacles coming from behind her, has claws everywhere, somehow has a bow on her beanie and most noticeable, she has four wings. She also has a very sinister look on her face.

" Hehehe~... You think you can team up with everyone to kill me!!? Not a chance..... hehehehe~... "

Sarah was speechless. Before she could do anything, Uzi spawns her Solver, taped Sarah's mouth like she did with Marcus and kicked her on the floor.

" Please...! Let me go...! " Sarah muffled.

" Oh sorry. We don't want anyone to know about this. Let's just say you're going to die. "

Sarah was scared as Uzi giggled so hard as she went to her ' oily ' mode and started swallowing Sarah as she was covered in oil.

About later the oil that covered Sarah disappeared. Sarah then woke up, looking very different as her eyes went from purple yellowish tint to her regular blue eyes. Sarah then started giggling.

" Oh yes.... this will be fun... very fun. " said Uzi in Sarah's voice and body.

Chapter Text

The next morning, everyone was ready, including Khan, Nori, Thad, Lizzy, V and N. All the workers start preparing the journey to find Uzi and interrogate her. However, what they don't know is that...

Uzi is among them.

Watching everyone getting ready to find her. While disguised as Sarah, she went to the surveillance room. The main goal for Uzi is to sabotage it so she can remain uncaught.

As Uzi entered the surveillance room as Sarah, there was a guard there controlling the cameras. The guard turned around to see Sarah standing in front of the door.

" Oh hey Sarah. Mind helping me to patrol the cameras? " asked the guard.

" Yea---h man. I'm totally here to help you do things easier. How about we..... JUST DON'T PATROL THEM AT ALL!!? " said Sarah with a wide smile.

" Wait what? What do you mean- "

The guard's mouth was taped making him go silent and his hands got cut off. As the guard looks at Sarah with a confused look he tries to ask...

" Sarah! What are you doing??? Are you trying to- AARGH my hands! " He got cut off by Sarah as she said...

" Oh don't worry, you worthless drone. I'll make sure you won't find me. Let's just say... I'm not Sarah ok? " said Sarah as her eyes then switched to Uzi's purple yellowish tint eyes.

" No... no... no... that can't be you... Uzi! " said the guard.

Sarah's voice then changed to Uzi's voice as she says...

" Oh don't worry guard. I'll make things easier... as long as you work for me... " said Uzi.

" There's absolutely no way for me to work with you! " said the guard.

" Oh don't worry. There's only one answer... and it's a yes. "

Said Uzi as she spawns a mini chip that seems to look like a... virus then throws it at the guard's chest, making him get electrocuted. Uzi watching this happen feels no remorse, as if she doesn't know what's pain anymore.

The guard then went to a system reboot as a text on his visor says...

SYSTEM : IN CONTROL

HOST : UZI_ADMINISTRATOR_SOLVER

OBJECTIVE : ???

The guard then woke up with no emotion, just... pale. His eyes also went from white to having a purple tint in it. As the guard says...

" My administrator Uzi. Is there any task I can do? " The guard asked.

" All I want you to do is simple. Just turn off the cameras and sit here until I call you again. Ok? " said Uzi.

" Yes. Anything for you, administrator Uzi. "

Uzi, as Sarah then turned back to leave the surveillance room and went to the group once again. She saw everyone was ready and tried to blend in like usual because she knows that Sarah was one of Khan's top workers.

" Oh hey there Sarah. Glad you're here. I have something to tell you. " Khan waved at Sarah.

Uzi, as Sarah said, " Yes, Boss. What is it? "

" Me and the group will go outside to find Uzi. While we were outside, I wanted YOU to control this bunker. " said Khan.

Uzi was shocked. Why would her dad give Sarah this much power. Well guess controlling Sarah was a good idea after all.

" B-but Boss. Why? " asked Sarah.

" I know I can trust you. You've been my best worker for years already. Why shouldn't I choose you? " replied Khan.

" T-thanks anyway. " said Sarah.

Khan then leaves Sarah alone in the control room as he goes down to leave the bunker to find Uzi. Uzi, as Sarah then opens the entrance to let all of them go outside, unknown that she was inside... all along.

" Plan worked. " said Uzi.

Uzi then decided to let Sarah off by demorphing herself as a large puddle of oil then turns back to herself. Sarah then woke up soon after.

" Ugh... my head. Where am I? " asked Sarah in confusion.

" Seems like I'm having fun playing with you the whole time! " said Uzi as she giggled.

" You! You won't get away with this you- "

Sarah soon got taped and her legs got tied up by William, the guard from the surveillance room. Sarah was confused. What is happening right now? She didn't understand all of this.

" William what are you doing? Can't you see Uzi is in front of you- ohhhh... I know why now. " said Sarah as she looked at William with white purplish eyes.

Uzi giggled and said, " It's been fun working with you William! Your task is over. " said Uzi as she ripped William apart. Sarah just watched... in horror as Uzi sucked all the oil.

" No... you didn't just kill- "

Sarah then got pinned at the wall with both hands tied up. Her walkie talkie was also taken by Uzi.

" I'll take that thank you. As a reward for dad letting you control this bunker.... hehehe... " said Uzi.

" Wait WHAT! " said Sarah in shock.

" This will be fun.... more FUN! hehehe... " said Uzi as she was ready for full control of the bunker.

Sarah is just watching Uzi taking over the bunker. Is it her fault anyway, or is it Khan? Sarah watched Uzi turn into that oil puddle again but this time Uzi hacked the computer's system.

The screens then turned on by itself, revealing the Absolute Solver's symbol on it, with purple yellowish tint on it.

" I will take over this bunker. You can't do anything about it. " said Uzi as she laughed like a maniac.

At this point, Sarah didn't know what to do. She watches the bunker slowly turning from black metal walls to what seemingly purple dark colour on the metal, meaning that Uzi took control over it.

" Aww~... feel sad aren't you? Well guess what? I'm hungry but I won't kill you. Instead, I want to have fun with them. " said Uzi as she teleported away, leaving Sarah alone in the control room.

Sarah wished that everyone would notice that the bunker turned purple but it was wrong. Instead, it was only purple on the inside, but remained black outside like normal. That way, the others wouldn't be suspicious... at all.

Sarah felt sorry for everyone outside to even allow this in the first place.

Chapter Text

Everyone was outside, scattering around in groups to find Uzi. Some were near each other and some were far away but in a larger group. All the guards have guns equipped with them. It then cuts to Khan's group with N, Thad and approximately 6 WDF guards at the outside.

" Excuse me Mr.Doorman. How many WDF members do you have again...? " Thad asked.

" Well if we count the ones with us and 10 people including Sarah, that would be almost 100. " said Khan.

" That's actually a lot sir! With all that said, I'm sure we can find Uzi sooner! I'm sure. 100%. " said Thad with hope.

" I hope so too Thad. Also how many groups are there again, Khan? I forgot. " N added and asked.

" Well I'd say almost 8 groups including us. Some were big and some were small like us. Anyway let's just continue searching for Uzi. We don't want to sit here and talk all day like it's a vacation." Khan replied.

N and Thad agreed and they all continue their search then it cuts off at V, Lizzy and Nori with the others, searching at Camp 78.9. They went to check...

every single cabin they could find

...to find clues or any signs of Uzi's presence.

" Hey V. I'm tired already! Can't we just.. take a break for 5 minutes at the very least? " asked Lizzy.

" Nope. Not yet Lizzy. We still need to find Uzi. Remember... our mission! Our task! " V replied.

" Ugh! I just want to sit and rest for a bit. It's not like that freak would be very important- OUCH! " said Lizzy as she got smacked by Nori who overheard everything.

" Hey! Don't call my daughter a freak. Also there's no time to rest young drone. " said Nori with a serious tone.

" Sorry ma'am. Can I just.. have a rest for a bit? " pleaded Lizzy.

" Fine you can. But don't expect to sit until we're done searching for the day. " said Nori while V agreeing with Nori. "

For the entire day, the groups kept searching for any signs, clues or anything to track Uzi down, but nothing was found. They were all met back at the bunker entrance.

" So... hun, did you find anything? " asked Nori.

" Nope. Sorry Nori. We try our best to search for anything possible to find Uzi. " replied Khan.

" I guess we just continue to search tomorrow I believe. " said N with tiredness.

Everyone agreed and went to the entrance. As soon as Khan was putting his ' master door key ', it kept repeating the same error. The same one that says...

WARNING = WRONG ACCESS

" What!!? I created my own doors! How come it didn't work!!? Did it break? " Khan asked with an annoying face.

" Don't worry, step aside and let me do my job. " said V as she breaks the scanner in half, making the door open automatically.

Khan said as soon as the scanner cut in half, " My door..... now I have to fix it again...- Oh my... "

Everyone was greeted with a very... dark interior with purple gore inside as it covers the entire interior. Flesh and puddle of oil can be seen everywhere, as if it was abandoned.

" What in the purple is going on? " asked Nori.

" Isn't that your colour ma'am? " N asked but got smacked by Nori.

" Question. Is everyone inside ok? " Lizzy asked.

As soon as Lizzy said that, all the people inside the bunker went out, knowing that the group was there. They all seem to be very relief of their presence.

" I think they are ok. " said Lizzy back.

N and V stepped in first, followed by everyone else. It's clear, everyone was safe inside... they just have to deal with these... goopy fleshy things.

" Eww. Look at this flesh! Selfie! " said Lizzy as she showed it to Thad and took a selfie with it.

" Wait Khan you said there were 10 guards here right? If so... where are they? " asked N, remembering what Khan said before.

" Wait I do remember about that. Let me contact Sarah. " said Khan as he tried to call her but failed.

" She's not answering. Why not check the control room first? Sarah was supposed to be there. If my calculations are right. " said Khan.

Khan asked the other guards to stay outside and guard it in case of anything. As all the guards outside and close the entrance, it just leaves Khan, Nori, Thad, Lizzy, N and V at the storage room.

" Alright so where do we start? " asked V.

Khan said, " We should check the control room first. But... "

" Umm... any problems sir? " asked Thad.

" The control room is on the top floor. And to get there is kinda hard with all this goopiness around us right now.. " Khan replied while rubbing the flesh with his fingers.

" Don't worry si- Khan! We will bring you there. Just tell us where it is and we'll bring you guys too. " N volunteer to help while begging V to help too. Eventually, V agrees.

As they finished talking, V carried Thad and Lizzy while N carried Khan with Nori on his head. Together they flew to the control room. Along the way, they saw a lot...

of flesh,

goopiness...

and also purple color everywhere.

It feels like they know who did it. Feels like they do.

They eventually arrived at the corridor where the control room door is at the end of the hallway. N and V make sure everything is safe first then let everyone come along with them... with caution.

Khan then opened the door and the door opened. As they all went inside, they were shocked to see Sarah was pinned on the wall, alongside 8 other guards. They even saw William's body motionless on the floor.

Khan then runs to Sarah and puts her down and opens the tape as he says, " Sarah are you ok!? What happened!? "

Sarah breathing so much because she was taped for a long time. She then fell dizzy and went unconscious. The others then quickly put down and untaped the other guards and they all went unconscious the same way Sarah did.

" If they went unconscious, it means that they were taped for a very long time. " said Nori.

" But what bothers me the most is this body. Who would've done it? " Thad asked with confusion and nervousness.

" I guess we can only wait for Sarah to wake up. " Khan said.

V and Thad followed by Lizzy then brings the guards alongside Sarah to the medic room. Khan, Nori and N then ordered all the guards outside to come inside and clean the entire bunker. There were even some drones who volunteered to help.

But what bothers them the most is that the bunker is soo big. Cleaning the mess will take weeks... or even MONTHS.

" Oh boy... this is gonna take a while... " said Khan.

They all start cleaning the mess inside the bunker. It then cuts to Uzi as she-

[ TO BE CONTINUED ]

Chapter Text

It then cuts to Uzi as she was standing there... menacingly in the shadows of the hallways that no one saw her. As she was looking at one particular direction. V, Thad and Lizzy followed by a couple of medic doctors bringing the unconscious guards including Sarah.

As she stared at them, she grinned. It was too funny. Too funny to see the chaos coming left and right, up and down, corner to centre, unknowingly where or when could be next.

It feels like an adventure game. You doubt to see what will happen. You choose where to go. It's either good or bad but you don't know that. Because for her...

It feels like a game she's playing.

" They might rest for now... " said Uzi as she teleported away from the scene. It then cuts to V, Thad and Lizzy as they were standing next to Sarah's unconscious body with a medic at the opposite side.

" It appears that she when into a full-scale unconscious. She might wake up at least 3 days after. " said the medic.

" Oh damn... that was longer than I expected. " said Thad back.

" We should tell Khan now. " said V.

V then looks at Lizzy, who's been taking pictures with unconscious guards stopped as she heard what V said. " Y-yeah V! We should go... now! "

V chuckle a bit while Thad slapped his face. Soon they all leave the medic room as it cuts to Khan and Nori with the other guards and drones, cleaning the mess.

" Hey Shawn! Mind helping me carry these box full of goop? " Khan asked.

Shawn is one of the top 20 best guards of all time. He then quickly goes to Khan and help him. Nori was seen cleaning the wall with her Solver powers to carry the water and spray it over.

" Gosh... this is frustrating than I thought. " Nori sighed.

" To be fair, we have a lot more to do Nori. " Khan laughed a bit after saying that.

" That doesn't matter now. " said N who was flying towards them. " I just want... Uzi to be back. " he added with a frowned face.

" Don't worry N! We'll continue tomorrow. If we finish cleaning the bunker of course. " Khan replied.

Soon after V, Thad and Lizzy arrived. They ask if there was anything to do which is obviously... yes.

" Can't you see what we're struggling to? Obviously we need help. By the way, how are the guards? " Nori replied and asked.

" Well they're doing ok. Just that they might awake in 3 days at the least. " V replied.

" God that's a long time to wait V! " N replied.

" Well that's what the medic said. I don't control them. " V shrugged.

" That's enough. Why don't you guys help us too? " Nori asked.

" Yeah sure thing! " V, Thad and Lizzy said in unison.

All of them, including some guards cleaning the bunker. One by one, they clean the corridors, places, remove the goops, etc. Some even gave food and gasoline for energy.

" No thanks. Do you have oil instead? " N and V asked.

It doesn't matter. Because they can survive longer without oil. What matters now is to clean the bunker. Sure. It was hard. But eventually after almost a day and a half,...

they did it. The bunker was clean. It looks normal like before, and probably smells good now. All the drones celebrated this by having a big party event where they drink gasoline together and play card games...?

I guess that's what they do for their free time.

But someone is not happy.

[ TO BE CONTINUED ]

Chapter Text

But someone is not happy. As all of them are celebrating their hard work, N was seen very unhappy. Perhaps he looks... sad? Thad saw him and went to him.

" Hey... wassup N? You look very... unhappy and... sad. "

" Hey Thad. Don't worry about it. I'm fine. " N replied.

How N replied to Thad saying that he's definitely lying, as if he's hiding something. Thad didn't like seeing this, so he asked N to go to his house to talk later after the party and he said yes.

Soon after, the party was over. Everybody was very pleased, except the group as they still need to find Uzi since it's been almost a week since she disappeared from the bunker.

Wonder where she would be right now.

Later that night, N went to Thad's house to meet him. Thad greeted him and went inside.

" So... N. I know there's something wrong with you. Tell me. Maybe I can help you. " Thad asked with a worried, concerned face.

N sighed for a second, then he said, " I... I still miss Uzi so much. I know you guys are too but... but... she meant a lot in my life. "

N tries to hold his tears and continues..., " It feels like..... an empty hollow inside my heart. I... just want her back. That's all I want. I don't care how much it cost... "

[ Do drones even have a heart 💀? ]

Thad was about to sob as N was sobbing while he was talking. But he tries to hold his tear up. What N said was true. He also missed her. Everybody missed her. It seems like her disappearance caused an impact not just to N,...

but everyone.

Thad then held N's shoulder and said, " It's okay N. I... missed her too. We can do it together. We will find her and bring her home. I promise. "

N stopped sobbing and replied back, " Thanks, Thad. "

Then the entire dramatic scene ends as it cuts back to 3 guards, named Shawn, Katie and Julian as they were patrolling the cyrosleep chambers as they were assigned to patrol it this night.

" Hey Julian do we really have too??? " asked Katie.

" Well... Khan said we 3 have to patrol this area tonight. Don't worry Katie, it's only today. " replied Julian.

" Guys... I desperately need to sleep right now. I'm tired. " said Shawn as he stretched himself and yawned.

" Oh robo-god Shawn. How many times do we need to say??? Go get some good sleep. Not playing games until late night! " Julian said while Katie nodded.

Shawn kept yawning while he said, " Ok ok guys I understand. I'll promise after this shift okay? "

" Ok fine. You keep your promise, Shawn. We'll watch you tomorrow. " said Katie.

" You know what. Just go to sleep Shawn. Let two of us patrol it tonight. " Julian said.

" Nope I'm going to stay here even when I'm tired. Khan put this shift on us and I don't want to disappoint him. " Shawn replied.

" Wow. You seem to be loyal to your job Shawn. No wonder you're one of the top guards here despite being tired. " Katie said.

" Actually you know what? I'm going to sleep here. You guys do your job. " said Shawn as he went to sleep mode.

" I swear... this guy...! " said Katie.

" Nevermind let him sleep. We can do it right, Katie? " Julian said.

" I guess so. Let's split up. "

" Sure thing. I was about to ask that. " replied Julian back.

Julian and Katie stop talking as they both continue to patrol the cyrosleep chambers while Shawn was sleeping. As time went by, at roughly 2:45 am, Julian woke Shawn up.

" Hey Shawn. Wake up. Do you see Katie anywhere? "

Shawn wakes up and looks at Julian as he replies,...

" Nope, Julian. I haven't. I was sleeping. How should I know? "

" Ah shoot you're right. The thing is... Katie is missing, and I can't find her. Would you help me? "

" Ok fine, Julian. But promised me to share your paycheck with me. " Shawn teased.

" Ok. Deal. " said Julian.

Julian and Shawn keep patrolling the area while at the same time looking for Katie. At almost 4 am, they stopped by at Bay 3.

" Julian. I'm tired already. Can't we just... take a break first? I feel... very, very eepy. " Shawn asked.

" Nope Shawn. We're not going anywhere until we find Katie- "

They were cut by the sound. A snoring sound as they turned left to see Katie was..... sleeping...?

" Oh thanks robo-god. See Shawn? I told you we would find her. " Julian said.

" You know what? Ok fine. You win this time. " Shawn replied.

They went to Katie with their guns and batons ready up and started to wake her up as the snoring sound got louder which made them even more nervous. They stepped back and Julian said,...

" Why isn't she waking up? I thought it would be easier... "

" I don't know Julian. We just need to try again- "

Suddenly they heard a buzzing sound as they looked at Katie which seemingly glitched to herself but her body was completely 100% without oil and a noticeable text on her visor that says...

FATAL ERROR

Julian and Shawn realised something. The snoring sound was fake. It never actually came from Katie as she was dead. Then the snoring sound ended. Her gun and her baton was with her but there's a bite mark on her neck.

" H-hey Shawn...? Suddenly I... I realised something.... "

" Y-yea... what is it Julian...? "

" I remember... when I was a kid, I watched a show about... how a rabbit got lured into a trap... with a carrot on it...? Because of its carelessness? "

" So...? How's that have to do... with us...? " Shawn asked with sweat on his face.

" I think... we are the rabbit now. " said Julian as a figure appeared in front of them and it seems to be running to them with a knife on it's hand and using it's Solver powers to blocked the exit behind them.

They looked in front of the figure as Shawn said to Julian, " Oh... shoot. Hey... Julian? I think it's nice knowing you... "

Julian looked back with tears on his face and replied back, " Y-yeah man. Me too- " said Julian as his head got decapitated by the knife earlier they saw.

Shawn was shocked as he tried to shoot at the figure, which the figure dodged, giggling and lunging at him, killing him in the process as the figure said,...

" Mmm... Delicious. "

Chapter Text

Then it cuts to the church underground before. Suddenly, Uzi appeared in front of the church and went inside, wanting to do something after that quick ' lunch ' she had just now. Guess that killing was fun anyways.

" It's time to do it... now. There's no time left. "

She sat down to take a rest and her visor went dark and a text was seen on it, but it's not ' sleep mode '. Instead, the text on her visor says...

MEETING THE SOLVER

Wonder what that means.

It then cuts to Khan as he is seen sleeping snoring loudly that the neighbours couldn't bear it anymore. Then, suddenly his door was knocked down by Nori and she jumped at him, demanding him to wake up.

" Hun! Wake up! There's an urgent thing to do!!! Wake up!!! "

All that scream for Khan still sleeping but his snoring keeps getting louder. Geez... he must be very tired then. But there's no time to sleep. Khan needs to wake up now.

Nori then thinks of an idea that might hurt him. I mean..... from his heart of course. Nori then starts her ' plan ' to wake her sleepy husband.

" ~Oh no! Someone broke the door at Bay 3! Oh no...! I wonder who would fix it!!? I wonder...?~ "

After Nori said that, Khan then immediately woke up from his long-term sleep. He then went crazy and looked at his surroundings.

" Where!!? Where!!? Broken!?? Where is it!?? "

Nori then slapped him and said, " Wake up hun. There's an urgent thing you must see! "

Khan rubbed his eyes and asked, " What is it Nori? I'm still sleepy... "

Nori slapped him again and said, " No time! Follow me, Hun. We have an emergency. "

" Can I at least sleep for at least 10 minutes more...? "

" NO! "

Khan replied, " Ok... ". He then yawns again, gets up from his bed and follows her.

Khan and Nori then arrived at Bay 3 where a couple of guards, detectives who were taking pictures, V, N, Thad and Lizzy were there, looking to be surrounding something.

Khan and Nori went to them and Khan asked them, " What is it? Why are you guys interrupting my sleep? I was having a good-... Oh my... "

What they were looking at was Shawn's body with his baton poked on his visor , Julian's body which was decapitated and Katie's body. There's also a knife near Julian's head.

But what makes it more creepier is that... all the drones who died recently not just their oil get sucked clean... their core also got ripped off.

Only Cyn does this as of their knowledge. But Cyn is dead so who could it be?

Thad then went to Shawn's body and picked up the knife and said, " Whoever did this must throw the knife at this guard. "

The guards and the detectives went to them and said, " We will examine the scene later sir. If there's anything else, just call us. We'll be free... anytime! "

Khan replied, " K then. Thanks anyway guys. "

" You're welcome. " Then they leave, leaving the group there by themselves.

Lizzy then takes a closer look at Katie's body where she notices a bite on her neck. " Guys... there's a bite on her neck. "

Nori then took a closer look at Katie's neck and replied, " I've never seen this bite before. Whoever, or whatever did this is something that we've never encountered or seen before. "

Hearing that makes Khan, Thad and Lizzy scared. While N and V were ready for anything. Anything for a threat. Suddenly N remembered something.

" Wait V! Did Sarah wake up yet? " N asked V.

" Mmm... I'm not sure yet. Perhaps... we can take a look? "

" Lizzy then said, " Why not just ask the medic there? Surely she knows then. "

" Lizzy was right. We can just ask the medic. " said Thad.

Everyone else agrees and goes to the medic room. It then cuts to the medic room as they arrive and goes to Sarah's room where a medic was checking on her.

" Umm.. hello.. ma'am! Would you mind telling us when she will be awake? " Thad asked.

The medic replied, " Ahh you guys! Hello Mr. Doorman. Lucky you guys are here. Just in time for this good news. Sarah's body is responding. She would be awake for... at least from my examination... 30 minutes. "

Everyone was glad. Finally Sarah was about to wake up. And the very best news for them is that they can ask what happened to her and who did it. Because they are assured that...

the one who killed the drones is the same person who taped Sarah and the other guards. Then they all remembered something.

Where the world would Uzi be right now?

It's been more than a week since she disappeared. The guards that check outside said there's not a single mark that shows her appearance. Thinking this made N worried and probably lost his mind. Thad saw N's expression.

Suddenly Thad asked N. " Hey N? You're alright? "

" Y- yea! Yea I'm fine. " N replied back.

Everyone else looks at N with an ' OK ' expression. But inside, they all know how N feels right now because they feel the same thing.

Hollow. Empty. Sad. Broken... without Uzi.

Shortly after, Sarah finally waking up, holding her head as she said, " Ugh... Where am I...? "

Khan then immediately held her and asked, " SARAH! You are finally awake! Please tell me what actually happened! Please! " Khan then shakes Sarah begging for answers.

V holds him and says, " Uhm Khan. I think you need to calm down first. She just woke up. "

Khan then looks at everyone, who has a stern face on him so he stops holding Sarah and lets her say her answers.

" Ok sir. What actually happened was... I was controlled by your daughter..... she.. controlled me..., I believe she is... responsible for all the chaos in this bunker... "

Everyone was shocked with her answers. It makes sense but when Nori was about to ask then Sarah continued with a traumatic face.

" B-but I feel like she's not... going to sit down and watch. I can feel... that something is coming... to us. Something... HORRIBLE. "

Everyone was scared after hearing that. Then Khan voiced up and said, " Now we know who's responsible for the kills, Nori! Make sure all the guards are ready. Everyone else,...

be prepared for anything. "

N then asked V. " Hey umm... V? Should we call J right now? Perhaps she can help us in any way...? "

V tried to call J... but... V sighed and replied back to N as she said...

" Nope. J turned off her communication system so we can't contact her in any way. Guess she's really having fun out there. "

" Oh mann... " N said back to V.

It then cuts to Uzi as she was in a different... place. All that was seen was black, pitch black void to be precise. There are also tentacles and Solver cameras... everywhere, surrounding her. Obviously she can't see anything... because it's pitch black of course.

[ INTENSE MUSIC PLAYS ]

Suddenly a voice can be heard which was revealed to be the Solver as it was teasing Uzi a bit.

" ~Look who's here...~ Did you have a good time my host? "

" Shut up! I am having a good time! But... " Uzi said back with a serious voice.

" What? Is there something wrong, my dear host? " the Solver asked. The tone of the voice sounds worried.

" It's just... I feel kinda guilty for doing that. " Uzi said.

Uzi, waiting for the Solver to reply. Sure, she feels guilty for that. But it's the least she could do. The Solver then replied to her...

" It seems like you still have sympathy for them. Remember what they did to you? They want to KILL you! DISCARD you! Yet you still have sympathy for them!?? "

Uzi is out of words. She doesn't know what to say back to the Solver. Shortly then, she said, " Ok! fine! Guess they really want to... do that to me after all. "

The tentacles then starts coming closer to her eyes as the Solver said,...

" It's time that WE, show them who we are. Show them the consequences of their decision. "

Uzi then went silent. She doesn't know what to say now. As if her mouth was shut down, unable to think what to say, because she still feels guilty. Then, she asked the Solver.

" If they want to kill me then why would they send down guards instead of N and V? There has to be a reason right? "

The Solver gets more closer and replied, " You realised now. See? They're too scared to fight you yet they have weapons to kill you. That's why they sent out those weak guards after you instead of them! They're COWARDS after all. "

She thinks for a second. Perhaps the Solver was right after all? She then thought for a second. Does N want to kill her because of her actions? Was he going to leave her? And most importantly...

Does N still care about her?

While Uzi was thinking about it, the Solver went to her and said...

" I know what you're thinking. You're still thinking whether your murderous boyfriend still care about you. And you know what? He decided to side with the drones who want to KILL you. He... betrayed you. "

" But soon... all of their plans to find and kill you are going to crumble to pieces! You do know how afraid and scared they are. It's like a giant versus a tiny creature. "

" I know you want it, host Uzi. You want it to happen. You deserve to live yet they want to kill you. Isn't that unfair? " the Solver asked Uzi.

Uzi lowered her head. The Solver knows what she was doing. The urge...

the urge...

the urge...

the desire to do it. Uzi has been thinking about since the beginning. Uzi then looks back at the tentacles with the Absolute Solver symbol on her left eye.

" You know... I've been thinking about something... I restored the planet with them, helped fix everything and they want to kill me for good? Not a single chance. I might as well have you with me and kill the planet with them on it! " said Uzi as she glitched for a second, similar to what Nori saw in the beginning.

The Solver was amused and replied...

" I like that idea. You can have lots of oil supplies with all of the dead bodies you'll make. Obviously that won't be enough, but you can always go to other planets for more oil to survive. Remember... " the Solver continued and said...

" You are god. "

" You can do anything you want as you wish. You can make every entity bow at you in this entire universe! Just..... as long as you get rid of anyone who stands out your way and your job is done. "

After the Solver said that, Uzi looked down as she smirked and chuckled a bit as the Absolute Solver symbol appeared fully on her visor then she glitched and it went dark for a second. 

As then, it was revealed that Uzi, not in her worker drone form but instead in her ' spooky hollow snake crab ' form. Many tentacles start illuminating the pitch black void as it gets brighter with purple and yellow light seemingly wanting to be fused together.

" You're... right. I am... god. " she replied with an evil chuckle.

Then the pitch black void was consumed with the bright light.

Chapter Text

It cuts to the bunker where everyone was seen in the medic room. As they tried to think of a way to hold Uzi down, Nori then stood out and said...

" Hold on. Before we can start discussing, I'm going to alert the guards first. "

Khan then said, " Ok Nori go ahead. We'll wait. "

Nori then went out from the medic room and on her way, she met one of the guards, Braxton. Nori then ran to him.

" Oh hey there Braxton! Glad to see you. "

Braxton, with a thick accent replied back, " Oh hey Nori. Erm... why are you running towards me..? Is there... anything important? "

" Braxton, make sure you, and the other guards are ready. Call all the guards outside to come inside. Guard the main entrance at all costs. Don't let anyone or... anything come inside. Understand? "

" O..ok Nori...! Sure thing. But...."

" There's no time for ' but '. You just do your job ok? " Nori then jumped and slapped him.

" Ouch! Ok ok. " Braxton replied back while holding his cheek.

Braxton then went to the entrance and Nori went back to the room. As she went back to the medic room, everyone was waiting for her.

" I'm back. "

Khan then asked Nori, " So who do you tell to? "

" Braxton. "

" Oh that guy. Don't worry he's ok. Just... "

Nori asked Khan. " Just what, hun? Is there anything wrong? "

" Nevermind. "

Everyone then grouped together and started discussing how to hold Uzi down. Many ideas come out of their mouths. But all of them don't seem to work... well. N still looks pretty sad. Thad decided to bring N to somewhere else.

" N. Follow me. I have a word to say. "

N with no hesitation follows Thad to..... his home. They then went inside and started talking when N said...

" Why do you bring me here Thad? What.. do you want from me..? "

Thad then replied, " There's a reason why I brought you here N. Because- "

" I missed Uzi. Yeah... I know. " N replied back, cutting Thad off from his talk.

" I-I didn't expect you to know that already. I mean... I didn't even finish what I was about to say. "

N replied, " Oh Thad... you don't need to know all of this. Just leave me be. Let me do what I want to do. "

" No I won't leave you like this- "

" SHUT UP! "

Thad was speechless. He never thought N would be angry, especially to him. It went silent for a minute, then N voices out himself and said,

" I -I just...- why does Uzi need to keep this from me? I thought she could trust me. Did I do something wrong? She could've just told me if she had problems! But...

she didn't. Am I not trustworthy enough to her...? "

Thad heard what N said and was genuinely and shockingly, tears coming out from Thad's eyes. He couldn't hold it and went to N and hugged him as he said...

" It's not your fault, N. She's just very scared of what to do. Don't think like that. "

N only can try to hold his tears while hugging Thad and they both tried to.

It then cuts to Braxton as he was running to two other guards, Mary and Pedro, who were drinking gasoline... together on a bench.

" Hey guys! "

Pedro and Mary looked at Braxton, panting as he said to them, " So... Nori told me something just now that... we have to do now. "

Pedro then asks him while drinking his gasoline. " Hmm...? What is it? Is it really urgent tho? "

" Yea... What's all about it? You seem to look... exhausted. Come. Come sit with us and take some fresh air first. Also, do you want some gasoline? " asked Mary.

" No thanks Mary. Soo...... Nori told me to prepare all the guards at the main entrance, call all the guards outside to come inside, and..... I don't know what else she said tho... I feel like there's one more but what is it....? "

While Braxton is thinking about it suddenly Pedro, finished his drink and voices up and said,...

" If Nori said that..... then what are we waiting for? We gotta do it now then. "

" Yea I agree. Let's go, Pedro. " Mary replied.

Braxton can only agree while Pedro and Mary rushed to the entrance to tell the others. Braxton thinks it's a good idea that someone helped him to do his job. But on the other hand.....

he feels like he forgot something..... something.. very important.

When Braxton arrived at the door to the entrance room, which took him around 15 minutes because he was tired, he was greeted by all the guards, aka the WDF there. Everyone was making a... gathering? He then saw Pedro and went to him as he said,

" Hey Pedro you... umm... did a pretty good job here... but... "

" Nah don't thank me Braxton. I just called the guards to come here and gather here. If you want to see Mary, she's over there with the others. Do you want me to call her? "

Braxton replied, " No.. no. It's ok. I... just want to go... see Nori! Bye. ". Braxton then ran back to the door and closed it. Pedro can only look at him as he closes the door and he thinks for a second.

" Maybe I should follow him. Maybe I can get more information. "

So Pedro went to the door where Braxton closed it and as he was about to open the door suddenly a purple yellowish solver symbol appeared and jammed the door in place, unable to open it.

Pedro went to the door and tried to open it and... it didn't work. As he was about to pull out his gun to open the door by force, he suddenly heard a screaming voice as he turned around...

the guards are fighting something. That ' something ' does seem to look like what they have seen before. All Pedro can do was try to open the door, as the unknown creature starts getting closer to Pedro, more guards start shooting at the creature, but the creature kills everyone in sight with ease.

Debris starts coming out everywhere as guards, one by one get killed by the creature and unfortunately, one of the large metal debris flung and hit Pedro's leg, cutting his leg off, making him unable to reach the door handle.

" AARGHH! My legs! "

As he fell to the ground, he tried to turn around and all he could see was darkness. All the lights are broken except for one small light above the door. Pedro couldn't see anything, but he could smell oil, very very strong smell of oil, which made him more scared.

" Wait- where's my cellular phone..? "

He then tries to look around but all he sees is darkness. Eventually, he found his cellular phone on the ground, next to his... cutted legs.

" There it is! I just... need to... grab... it... "

His hopes are gone when the solver symbol appears at the cellular phone dragging it away in the darkness. He can hear a crack sound, indicating that the cellular phone is broken.

He tries his best to shout at the darkness. " Hey! Who are you! Where are my other friends! "

He then was greeted by a terrifying-looking centipede with tentacles surrounding the entire entrance area as well as bodies everywhere, oil splattered around the area as Pedro was in shock. It gets more terrifying as the like-eye cameras with yellow eyes start looking at him.

" W-what are you..? And... what did you do to- "

One of the tentacles then throws a lifeless body, which turned out to be Mary. He then saw Mary's lifeless body right next to him, making him more nervous as the creature in front of him said,

" Oh... it's me.. PEDRO! You and the others want to kill me soo... I'll get my revenge..! " a robotic voice that was heard by Pedro before.

Pedro was terrified. It's the... Solver itself. It showed up.... as he thought. Never thought he would see it again. Then he tried to ask the ' Solver '.

" Wait so you're responsible for Uzi's disappearance! Tell me where she is... or I shoot you! " Pedro then took one of the guns on the floor and aimed at the eldritch.

But all he heard was laugh. The laughing then starts to turn from a robotic voice to somewhat... Uzi's voice...? He then without hesitation shot at it, but the bullet got caught by the solver and it reflected back to Pedro's hand.

" AARGHH! My hand.... " He then heard it speak to him, but it's not the Solver....., it was Uzi... in a holographic appearance. She then starts walking to him. Somehow the way she walks mimicking Cyn's walks.

" ~Ohhh Pedro... You think you and the others can kill me? Well... not a chance..! And now...

Suddenly a burst of tentacles appeared behind Uzi.

you're going to be my meal. "

A burst of tentacles then starts to lunge at Pedro as he was grabbed but he managed to hold into a lever that says...

EMERGENCY ALARM
DO NOT FLIP UNLESS IT'S AN EMERGENCY
WILL BREAK IF FLIPPED 

" Come here...~ 

Pedro... you can't run from me...~ "

Pedro tried his best to hold on to it. Whether or not he would want to flip the lever but that would lead to his death. He then remembered Braxton was heading back to Nori. He then starts crying as Uzi is pulling him very hard.

He then yelled to himself...

" Braxton! I trust you! "

He then flips the lever but at the same time the lever broke as he is dragged into the eldritch, killing him. But it's worth a shot because Pedro managed to make the alarm went off, alerting everyone else that is alive, including the group.

Uzi then hears the alarm, knowing that they would come here sooner. She then had an idea and said to herself while chuckling, " This would be a great idea... " she then glitched back as everything surrounding her glitching.

It then cuts to the group, looking very relieved as the other 8 guards wake up from their unconscious sleep. They were very confused at first, just like Sarah. Shortly after, Braxton, arrived at the medic room, with everyone else inside, not surprised by his arrival.

" Hey Nori! What was that again you said!!? "

Everyone was shocked to hear what Braxton said but Nori replied, " I said to call everyone, inside or outside, to guard the entrance. And make sure to not let anyone or anything come inside after that. Did you do that yet? "

" AHH that's the one! Now I remember now! "

" What? What do you mean? " Nori asked.

" I... may have forgotten about what you said about... guarding the entrance... and.. don't let anyone or anything come inside...?- "

Braxton then got slapped by Nori as she said, " How could you possibly forget that!?? "

Khan interrupted, " Braxton is known for his short-term memory. " said Khan.

Braxton can only nod then Sarah asked him. " Hey Braxton. Is everyone else ok? "

" Yeah... they sorta make a... gathering at the entrance. They were soo happy that- "

Suddenly an alarm went off. Everyone was panicked, don't know what to do as the alarm was never heard before. Khan tries to calm everyone down then he says,

" That alarm..... It must be an emergency then... Guys! Come on! We need to go to the entrance! "

Everyone nodded and ran to the entrance, alongside the other 8 guards. They arrived and tried to open the door, but it got jammed. Nori then used her Solver to force open the door, revealing everything looking..... normal?

Everyone seems really happy. Enjoying together like... nothing happened. But something is suspicious. Too suspicious. The lever didn't break, but the alarm went off.

They were hesitating to step to the entrance room, Mary and Pedro, went to them with a very pale face, said to them.

" Hey Braxton. Seems like you brought a crowd here. Come here. I have something to tell you. " Pedro said to him.

At first they hesitated to step inside, but one of the 8 guards said to Khan.

" Sir. Let us go inside. We'll check if anything's fine or not. "

" Ok then. Go for it. " Khan replied.

The 8 guards then step inside and at first it seems pretty fine. Nothing's wrong. But suddenly one of the guards saw something unusual.

" What is that...? " the guard thought to himself. Then he went to it. It was a box that looked normal, just looked a bit suspicious. The box glitched from a somewhat normal looking box then to a splattered oil covered the box.

The other guards thought that it was safe. Then they went to the group and said, " Ok Khan. Everything's fine. You can come here. "

The group then went inside. At first it was true, everything seems fine. Then, the door behind them closed by itself and suddenly they heard a scream, revealing that the guard who saw the box earlier disappeared in sight. All of them are confused about where the guard went.

Nori then asked Braxton and Sarah to stay behind N and V. Khan then asked the guards,...

" Are you sure... it's actually safe... or not!!?? "

All the guards went silent as everything around them suddenly glitched, turning into a horrific sight with oil, bodies everywhere and tentacles surrounding the entire room.

Then, a knife was flung from the side, hitting all 7 guards on the neck, killing them instantly. They were all shocked. They then realised, every single WDF in the room is dead. Thad then took out a flashlight and torch in front of them,...

revealing the entire... TRUE... Solver form. Then one of the tentacles suddenly lunged at Thad's flashlight, grabbed it and put it on the ceiling, illuminating the entire room. Geez... Thad's flashlight was sure bright.

" Well well well... look who's here. " a robotic voice, the Solver can be heard from the eldritch.

" YOU!! SATANIC BEAST!! HOW DARE YOU KILL MY GUARDS!!!! " Khan was very angry, trying to fight the eldritch with his fist but Thad and Lizzy stopped him.

N and V prepared their blades, Thad and Lizzy tried to calm Khan down and Braxton and Sarah were very scared until they hugged each other. Nori then asked the Solver, with a threatening tone.

" You! Solver! Where is my daughter! "

The eldritch beast just stood still for a second. Then it replied, " What do you mean? She's here. "

" No she's not! Uzi isn't here! Tell us right now before we kill you like before! " N stepped in with his missiles, ready to shoot at the eldritch.

The eldritch replied, " She's here- wait no.. let me fix that. I'M HERE! "

The voice changed from the robotic voice to Uzi's voice as the eldritch glitched itself and turned into Uzi, making everyone shocked, especially N.

" I bet you miss me wouldn't you.... N? " said Uzi.

[ TO BE CONTINUED ]

Chapter Text

N stood there, shockingly to see his long-time-no-see friend, but Uzi walked towards him with an evil, angry face and her Solver on her right hand.

" No... No... No...! This can't be real..! " N thought to himself for a bit while looking at Uzi, still aiming his gun at her.

Uzi stopped walking and said, " Aww~ what's the matter N? Can't help yourself? YOU wouldn't shoot me right? ". Uzi then tilted her head to the left.

" U-uzi... W-why...? " N asked her, but he was only greeted with an evil chuckle by Uzi then she said,

" Ohh N. Stop pretending like I don't know anything! You think I'm stupid and dumb enough to be manipulated by you? "

" Uzi. I don't know what you're talking about. Please... just stop this and come back to us. " Thad pleaded to Uzi.

Lizzy then added, " Uzi please...! Stop this madness. You can still redeem yourself- "

" There's no more negotiation! " Uzi shouted at them. Then, tentacles come out behind her as she continues,

" You guys want to get rid of me for good... yet you want me to stop all this? You think I'm stupid!!? "

Nori with a pickaxe, said to her, " Uzi! We didn't want to kill you- "

" Shut up mum. " said Uzi as she spawns her Solver to summon a bunch of tentacles oils, ready to attack the group.

" Err.... I don't think negotiating with her works Nori... " Braxton added, still hugging Sarah for some reason. V then went to N's side and said,

" N! What are you waiting for? Why are you... " said V as she looked at N and held out her blades in ready.

N stood there... don't know what to do. He doesn't want to hurt Uzi. Not in any chance. He would never hurt his friend.

As Uzi stood there, she was giggling. Her visor constantly shifted from her eyes to a big purple X, as if the real fun game is about to start.

" Attack them! "

Then, all the tentacles start lunging at them. It tried to attack N first but V slashed it all. V then shouted at Thad, Lizzy, Braxton, Sarah and Khan.

" You guys go seek shelter! Me, Nori and N will try to hold Uzi down. "

" Ok. " They all said to V as they ran to seek shelter.

N, V and Nori slashed the tentacles, one by one, like cutting sushi. It gets more intense as more tentacles start lunging at them. N on the other hand, try to get closer to Uzi as he said,

" Uzi! Stop it! We're not going to kill you! "

" And you think I trust that? Have some more! ". Uzi then spawns more tentacles, and more, and more, preventing them from getting closer. All N, V and Nori could do is try to keep killing those tentacles.

" Eergh! There's many of them! " N said while slashing those tentacles.

" Just keep doing it, N. " V said back.

" We just gotta hold on the line. " Nori added.

Uzi then interrupted them and said, " Yeah... keep holding the line until I slash you to pieces! ". An evil laugh can be heard after that.

All three of them continue fighting the tentacles as it keeps getting more and more. It then cuts to Thad, Lizzy and Khan as they were hiding behind some boxes.

" What's wrong with Uzi? Why is she doing this? " asked Thad.

" I.. don't know Thad. I have no idea. " said Lizzy.

Khan just sat there, thinking about something. Thad and Lizzy saw that and asked Khan.

" Sir... what are you thinking about...? " Lizzy asked.

Khan then suddenly had an idea and he said to them,

" We cannot just sit here and do nothing. What if something happens to them? You two! We have to help them! "

" But sir... how do we even fight her? It's not like..... we have... cool weapons. " Thad said to Khan.

Khan laughed a bit then he said, " Who said we don't have weapons!? ". Khan then pulls out a MAC-10 gun from the box behind them and tosses it to them.

Khan then noticed something and he asked, " Wait. Where's Braxton and Sarah? "

They looked around and it then focused on Braxton and Sarah as they were hiding in another area, at the same time they were talking to each other.

" Hey... Braxton. How do you feel about... we're the only one left in the WDF? " Sarah asked.

" I.. don't know what to say. B-but I feel like.... having you right now... makes me feel... not alone you know...? " Braxton replied.

" Braxton! You don't have to say that. " said Sarah as she blushed a bit.

" H-hey Sarah..? "

" Yeah.. Braxton..? "

" I feel like..... umm... "

" Feel like what...? " Sarah asked with concern on her face.

" I feel like... I want to- ". Suddenly they got interrupted by Khan, Thad and Lizzy, as they found them. Braxton and Sarah looked at them... surprised.

" I thought you guys went lost. " Khan said to them.

" But we hear you guys talking, so we went here and found you guys. " Thad said.

" You guys... wanna help them? " Khan asked, giving both of them a MAC-10 gun.

" Oh hell yeah!!! Let's do it! " said Braxton as he took the gun. Sarah then follows the same.

It then cuts to N, V and Nori as they were... slashing tentacles. Gosh they've been fighting for almost half an hour just... slashing tentacles. Welp... that's bland, for them of course.

As N was slashing tentacles, he yelled to Uzi, " Uzi! Stop this! You don't have to do this! You can still turn back- "

" There's no turn back N! You betrayed me! All of you want to kill me! Why should I listen to you! " said Uzi as she spawned a blade that was made of oil.

" Uzi... You've been manipulated by the Solver. Stop it...! Before... it consumed you. " N yelled back while slashing.

" He's right Uzi. You know how we feel. What N feel. You don't have to do this. Doing this just makes you worse. " V replied back with a sword on her right arm.

Nori stepped in and said, " Uzi! Remember... you saved this planet from destruction. You don't have to do just what the Solver would do. Just because you've been manipulated- "

" SHUT IT! "

Suddenly all three of them got grabbed by a tentacle and got smashed outside and hit one of the buildings. They got very hurt as Uzi flew in front of them.

" N! V! You guys ok? " Nori asked them.

" Uurgh... Don't worry Nori. We're fine. " N and V said back.

N, V and Nori then stood up and looked at their surroundings and then they saw none other than Uzi in front of them. She had an absolute solver symbol on her left and an X on her right as she said,

" I don't want to hear anything from you guys anymore. And now,... " she then held out her blade as she continued,

we fight. " she then spawns her tentacles again and starts ready to fight with them... alongside herself.

V looked at N, looking traumatised as she said to N. " Umm.. N. I think... it reached a point where we have to kill her. There's no choice now. "

N then looked at V back and suddenly he choked her as he said, " No V! I'm not going to kill her! You think I would do this!!? "

" There's no point N! Uzi's gone insane. Far beyond confrontation! The only way to stop her is by... killing her. " V added.

N look at V, then he released V from his grasp as he can only shake his head. " No... no... no... I would never! I would never! I would never- "

They all then got smacked down by a tentacle as Uzi said to them, while tilting her head, " Aww~ what are you guys doing...? Discussing on who's going to be my meal.....? "

Nori then starts slashing the tentacles with her pickaxe as she said to Uzi, " Uzi! You would never make your own mum your meal! "

" But I can and I will. "

Uzi then lunged a tentacle to Nori and then Nori got grabbed by it. She then was brought closer to Uzi's eyes as she giggled,

" Time to be my meal now, mum...~ "

As Uzi was about to eat Nori, the tentacle got slashed by V, releasing Nori and got hit by a bunch of missiles.

" Sorry Uzi. But we have to stop you. " V said.

" I'm sorry Uzi. " N said from a distance.

V then grabbed Nori and brought her back to N. Uzi then stood up and said in rage, " YOU THINK I'M SORRY ABOUT THAT? TAKE THIS! " she then summoned her claws and flew up. She then gets ready to dash towards them.

N, V and Nori tried their best to dodge while Nori tried to slash the tentacles with her pickaxe. N and V try to dodge the tentacles, trying to get closer to Uzi as she holds her blade, ready to attack them.

But then a burst of bullets were shot from a direction and hit her hand. N and V then kicked Uzi down to the ground.

Uzi, slowly standing up, while her hand healing said, " Eergh... who... did... this! "

Uzi turned around as she saw Thad, Lizzy, Khan, Braxton and Sarah holding their MAC-10 and Khan said to Uzi,

" Your rage is over kiddo. Give up now and we can settle it together. "

As they all hold their weapons, aiming at Uzi, she didn't twitch a bit. Instead, she was laughing. Laughing like what they are all trying to do is a joke. Uzi then stopped laughing and said to them, while looking down.

" You know... when I discovered my Solver powers, I was confused. (flashback to EP2).

None of you guys can stop my hunger for oil. (flashback to EP4).

Then, the Solver itself shows itself to me. (flashback to EP7).

I want to kill the Solver like you guys before. We thought we would kill it. But I realised something, we didn't kill it. Because... " she then starts glitching.

I am the SOLVER. " she then looks at them with a text on her visor that says...

I AM GOD

As soon as she said that suddenly Uzi disappeared in a holographic form. They all realized that Uzi was never there in the first place. They started grouping together.

" Shoot... where did she go??? " Thad said.

" I'm scared now...! " said Sarah.

" Don't worry everyone. Just calm down. " Nori said, trying to.

They then heard a voice, saying, " Ohh... how ironic it is. You guys are being circled, being cowards yet trying to stop me? Well..... look at you guys! "

Suddenly a burst of claws came out from the ground and grabbed Thad and Lizzy, pinned them on a wall with a thick oil. N, V, Khan, Nori, Braxton and Sarah try to shoot down the claw, as more claws emerge from the bottom.

Khan tried to take one down but got grabbed and got pinned on the wall. Braxton and Sarah managed to shoot down three claws before they got grabbed and pinned on the wall, leaving only N, V and Nori fighting the claws.

" N! V! We have to do this without them. " Nori said while fighting.

N then replied while dodging the claws, " We're trying to! "

" N! watch out! " said V as she grabbed N before a claw managed to throw a random car towards N.

" Thanks V. " said N.

" Your welcome N. " said V.

Eventually Nori was grabbed and thrown onto the wall. But instead of being pinned by a thick oil, she was pinned by her own pickaxe.

" Aargh. That didn't go well. N! V! You can do it. " Nori said.

N and V try to fight back but then the claws submerged back into the ground as Uzi glitched back on the surface, with an eye camera on her back as she spoke to them,

" It's been fun playing with you, idiots! But... before I turn you guys and this planet into my meal... I feel like... I'm missing someone. I wonder who that is... "

N and V realised what Uzi meant about ' missing someone '. It was J. She was having a vacation and coming back right now would be a very bad idea. What's worse is that she turned off her communication system.

V then said to N. " Does she know? "

" I don't think she did V. "

Suddenly they all heard a loud sound from the sky as they look at a spaceship then J piloting. V then got a call from J.

" Hey V.... I'm back from my vacation! " J said from the call.

V then shouted at J through the call, " J! You have to go... now! "

Hearing that, Uzi then summoned a tentacle and struck the spaceship, pulling the spaceship down and destroyed it.

J managed to get out before Uzi pulled it down. She then yells at N and V. " Hey! I spent weeks repairing the spaceship! "

N then yelled at J back, " Hey! It's not us J. It's- "

N and V then got grabbed by the tentacle and pinned them on the wall, just like everyone else. J then look at them and said,

" Ok. What is happening now...? "

J then turned around to see Uzi as she said, " Ohh... J. Finally you're here. "

J then said, " Ohh it's you purple freak! You destroyed the spaceship and you're going to pay for it! "

" Ohh J... You don't want to hurt me..... " said Uzi.

Suddenly Uzi's eyes turned yellow as her voice changed to a robotic voice, traumatising J as the robotic voice spoke,

don't you? "

Chapter Text

"This can't be it! It's back!?? Since when!? I thought it was gone for good. But Uzi? Why is she speaking like that!? What happened...?"

All that J was thinking in her mind as she stood there, frozen in place as she was in denial hearing that robotic voice again. The sudden speak made J hesitate to shoot at Uzi.

"You don't want to hurt me don't you, J?" said Uzi with the robotic voice as she walks closer to J with claws on her back, pointing at J.

"Maybe you want to do it again don't you J?"

Hearing what Uzi said, J looked back at the others, and surely needed help. J then stepped back, gun still pointing at Uzi as she said,

"Never. I won't repeat the same mistake again!"

Uzi stopped and stood there for a second, and she said, "Why wouldn't you?"

"I know what you did, robotic toaster freak! You think I'm stupid enough to fall into the trick again?"

Uzi's overheating started to build up as they were talking. "Oh shut up J! You think you are smart enough?" Uzi's tail then holding the railgun. The same railgun that killed J before.

A threat warning appeared on her visor as J looked back at everyone, still struggling to get out. J looked back at Uzi then she said,

"You know, toaster freak. It reminds me of something."

"What?"

"You think you are smart enough to trick me. But in reality, you're just dumb as everyone else. You made the deal with the Solver itself just to satisfy yourself."

Uzi's eyes flicked from yellow to purple and with anger, she replied, "You think I made the deal just because of power? They want to kill me and I simply prevent it from happening!"

N then shouted at them, saying while struggling, "That's not true Uzi! We don't want to kill you. We want to talk with you. We want to help you. We're all here too."

Uzi stood there in silence, anger still boiling in circuits, don't know if she wants to trust N and end it. Or kill everyone right now. J noticed that Uzi is getting angry as she said to her,

"Hey purple toaster. You either want to end it in a good way or a bad way."

Uzi has hold it. Her visor glitching back and forth. Smokes can be seen coming out from her back as J stepped back from her.

"H-how low are y-you in o-oil..!?" said J to Uzi as she replied,

"I'm not low in oil. I am angry! Angry for what you guys did to me! Specifically YOU J!"

"You should control your anger before it's too late. Wanna know why?"

Uzi's anger is still building up as J continues her talk.

"Because ANGER is ONE step way from DANGER."

Uzi has had it. Smokes getting thicker as she said, "That's it! I'll blow you up like before J!"

"You can try."

Without hesitation, Uzi spawns her claws then all of it started to lunge at J, which she dodged easily. Uzi then uses the Solver to grab the surrounding debris and starts throwing at J. J then shoots all the debris while dodging the claws.

Uzi didn't understand. The others were knocked down at this point. Even N and V got knocked down so easily, so why wouldn't J taste the same fate as them? But what Uzi didn't know,

J has been in this type of fight before.

Frustrated, Uzi starts summoning her tentacles and starts lunging at J, hoping to get her as the tentacles are so thick that they can't be easily sliced by their blades. J again, tries to dodge every single tentacle while at the same time, trying to get closer to Uzi.

"Come here J! Don't run like a coward!"

"You're the one coward here! You don't even moved an inch!"

J continues to get closer to Uzi as she reaches to her and starts trying to slashing her with her blade. Uzi then summoned her blade and starts the melee fight between her and J.

The fight gets more intense. J and Uzi fight like they were pros. They even fight while their wings were on. They both were so good that at this point it could be an endless game.

That is until Uzi lowered to the ground and summoned her tentacles and starts lunged at J and grabbed her.

"Urrgh! Let me go you freak!" said J as she was struggling to get out as the tentacle hold her even more tightly.

"Ohh J. You fought so good, yet you still meet your end here." said Uzi as her tail holding her railgun and pointing at J's head.

"Goodbye J."

Suddenly a purple solver came out of nowhere and a large pile of metal was thrown to Uzi, hitting her as she fell down to her knees, and went unconscious. J was set free, looked back at them, noticing that Nori was missing.

"Wait a minute. Isn't-"

As J spoke, Nori, who succeeded in freeing herself from the grip then jumped at J and said, "You did better than I expected, disassembly drone."

J only scuffed and Nori grabbed her pickaxe and sliced the thick oil down, freeing everyone. All of them feel relieved not to be hanged over.

"Ahh! This feels nice back." said Thad.

N and V went to Uzi as she was still unconscious, unknowingly what to do till Nori came to them and said,

"We should bring Uzi to the bunker now. Hun! Go to the bunker and grab some magnets. I know what to do."

Khan then runs to the bunker, followed by Braxton, Sarah, Thad and Lizzy. J then went to N and V and V said to her,

"I'm quite surprised what happened just now. I've never seen that before."

N added, "Yeah J. That was such a cool fight."

J pushed her pigtails and said, "And that's why I'm the boss."

N and V can only do a roll eye face as they see Khan running back to them with some magnets on his hands.

"Thanks Hun. Now let's bring her back." Nori said to them.

Chapter Text

Some hours later, it cuts to everyone in Uzi's room with Uzi laying down, unconscious on the bed with magnets on her head, aware if she's going to do anything soon. Everyone else just looked at her, worried for her, except J.

"Seriously??? This is the purple freak's room? So small."

"J!" N yelled at her, reminding her not to. J only looks at him and is annoyed. Then, N looks back at Nori, noticeably sad as he asks Nori,

"Are you sure Uzi's fine?"

"Yes. I can feel it. She's gonna be okay." Nori replied.

As they are waiting for Uzi to wake up, N asks Nori if Uzi's going like this because of him but Nori said she doesn't think so. V, Lizzy and Thad just do their casual habit, which is playing phones. Nothing really happens right now as their main objective is to... wait.

Some time later, V stood up and said, "If you guys don't mind I need to go. I am hungry and I need oil."

"Yeah... you can go. It's not like anything is happening right now." Khan said.

"We also want to leave. We feel pretty bored here." Lizzy said while Thad was next to her.

Everyone then leaves the room, leaving Uzi alone. It cuts to N, V and J, doing their lunch spree as they were drinking oil from a dead corpse. N and V both enjoyed the oil, all without killing any drones while J looked bored.

"So.... how's the trip? It was fun wasn't it?" N ask J.

J replied, "It was fun. Oil everywhere. It's like a freaking paradise!". J threw the head corpse and continued, "I enjoyed it so much that I feel like I want to stay there forever!".

V, finishing the oil and replied, "It's not like we're here, me and N drink oil here every day."

"Actually... we don't even drink oil here as much as the other planet." J said.

"It's not like we need oil every single day J. It's like... once every 2 weeks." N replied, finishing the oil.

It then cuts back to Thad and Lizzy as they are in the hallway, looking at the 'missing posters' that were put on the board.

"So.... about these posters..."

Lizzy then went to it and took off all the posters, tearing them apart aggressively and throwing them in the rubbish.

"Lizzy, why?" Thad asked her why she did that.

"It's not like these drones are recently missing. This poster has been here for almost a month and I hate looking at it!" Lizzy replied back.

"A month isn't actually a long time ago Lizzy. I'm pretty sure it's because of....."

Thad stopped talking as Lizzy looked down with her fist clenched up.

"O-okay listen! I-I'm sorry. I-I didn't mean to talk about 'her'! I swear to robo-god!" Thad replied quickly.

"It's okay. I know." Lizzy said, looking back at Thad.

They stopped talking as soon as they saw some drones walking by them, assuming they were going to the class.

Oh right the class is about to start..... ah fuc-

It cuts to Khan and Nori having a chit chat in the dining room. Khan with his usual gasoline drink starts drinking it like he's not tasting it for 2 years.

"Soo... what should we do about the WDF? It's not like we have any more guys to join back. They all got mauled and ripped off." Khan said, suggesting the fact that the WDF is low on drones.

In short, they need recruitment. Braxton and Sarah are not enough.

"I suggest why not just wait. It's not like we are having a big threat to deal with, Khan." Khan was actually surprised when Nori, for the first time ever, called him by his name rather than 'hun'.

"M-maybe you're right." Khan said back.

Little did they know what was happening inside Uzi's room. A purple glow can be seen dimly under the door. It's just because Khan and Nori are busy discussing the WDF condition they don't realise it.

(Some would say that Uzi's bedroom door has a big window which you can see in EP3 but let's just assume she changed the door for... privacy ok?)

Back to Lizzy and Thad in the classroom with their usual teacher. They sit next to each other with other students. They noticed that there are some students that they have never met before.

"Ugh, guess they're just gonna put some random students in because our class was empty!" Lizzy said.

"Relax Lizzy. It's not a big deal. At least we can make new friends." Thad replied back.

Lizzy can only scoff back. Their teacher ordered them to shut up and concentrate on their class as finally... school is open as usual.

Back to N, V and J happened to be seen at the top of the building with the red-eye sentinel. They were talking to each other for quite a while, especially J.

"Hey J..."

"What, N?"

"I just want to ask why are you teaming up with the Solver before?" N ask. J went silent a bit and looked down.

"C'mon J. I also want to know." said V as she petted her sentinel.

J looked back at them with a nervous face as she said,

"Alright... at first when I knew that 'Tessa' is not the Tessa we know from the Manor, I wanted to fight back the Solver but..." J stop for a moment.

"But what, J?" N ask, demanding the continuation.

"But I got scared, knowing that the Solver can easily delete all 3 of us considering we were made by it, I... chose to obey it. But I know that your memories got wiped out completely and V's partially wiped before, I chose to remain silent."

"At first when you and V don't remember anything, I do. But like I said, I'm scared." J finished her talk.

"It's okay J. Everyone makes mistakes, and I'm glad you realised it." N replied back, holding J's shoulder.

"Soo... what do we do now?" V ask them.

"Errm... I don't know. Maybe we can enjoy the outside for a day. Perhaps tomorrow we will go see Uzi." N said.

"I guess that's fine for me." said J as she flies away, N and V follow back with V carrying the sentinel.

Chapter Text

"So... how's the class just now?" Thad ask Lizzy, who's clearly not in a mood right now. "It's fine." That's all she replied.

"You... do not look fine at all." Thad replied back. He knows what she's thinking about. Thinking about someone's loss and moving onto it is not an easy one to do.

"How about we go and meet V? Maybe that'll cheer you up?" Thad asked, offering Lizzy to hangout with her and V. At least he can talk with N after all the class just now.

"I mean... sure. Why not?" Lizzy replied back, and they both walked together to meet V.

While at the same time, N, V and J were chilling inside the Doorman house. "It's so cozy here." V said while sitting on the sofa. "That's why I always come here." N said.

N then looked around and realised something. "Umm Nori? Where's Uzi? I haven't seen her the entire day." Nori then looked at N then said, "She's in her room, probably take a rest after all that happens. Better give her some time."

"Yeah yeah girls. Have some oil that Nori gives you." Khan walks in with 4 cups of oil on a tray and gives it to each of them. "Thank you sir." N thank Khan.

"Yeah yeah you're welcome. So, are there any other things you guys want to-" Khan was interrupted by a ringtone which comes from the door. Khan then walks to the door and opens it, seeing Thad and Lizzy outside.

"Oh you guys. What're you guys doing here?" Khan asks Thad and Lizzy and welcomes them inside. "We actually wanted to meet them so we went outside to find them and they weren't there. So we figured that they might be here so we ran here." Thad replied.

As all of them were chatting together, back to Uzi's room where everything seems to be a mess. Flesh and oil splattered everywhere from walls to ceiling. Suddenly, everything went back to normal as Uzi woke up and looked at her surroundings, figuring that she was in her room.

"Wait... I don't remember being here." Was all Uzi said before she stood up and opened the door and met everyone in the living room. They gazed at each other before Uzi said "W-why are you guys...-"

"Shocked?" N replied and went to Uzi while saying "Do you know how much I miss you after all these days?" N wants to hug Uzi but Uzi, with her fear holds back with her Solver and says, "S-stop right there. I know what you guys want to do."

N, ignoring her words then said, "Uzi. What's wrong? If there's anything wrong, you know you can just tell me right?" As N approaches her, Uzi holds her Solver, closing her eyes, repeatedly saying "I....I.....I'm-"

Her words got cut when she realised N was hugging her. Everyone else is just looking at them, frowning but they weren't surprised. Uzi without anything else to do, she continues with, "I'm scared."

N looked back at Uzi then said, "It's ok. I'm here. V's here. We're all here. You don't have to be scared." N then stopped hugging her and pushed Uzi to everyone else. Uzi was nervous but she looked back at N, who was nodding to her.

Uzi then said to everyone, "Everyone. I-I'm sorry for what I did. I didn't mean to do that. I... just-" Uzi was cut off by Khan who was also hugging her. "You don't have to apologise my dear. We already forgive you." Thad then walked up and said, "Yeah mate. It's ok." Thad then hugged her, followed by Lizzy and Nori where she just jumped on Uzi's head.

V then replied, "You know what girl? I forgive you." V then walked to them but before that she looked at J. J then looked at V nodding, then she said, "Ok ok. I know I did bad things to all of you, especially you, but fine, I deserve that experience." J then walks to all of them, hugging.

"Hey! Don't miss me in this group hug. I want to feel it." N response and all of them hug Uzi. At this point, nobody wants to say if this is a sad moment, or even a bonding moment, assuring that everyone can help each other, no matter how small or big it is.

"Thank you guys so much." Uzi said to all of them.
