Leviathan Solver Emily: Full Intro

I am Amelia Day, but you can just call me Emily!

I was formerly known as "The Christian", "The Nerd", and "Final Girl".

The last thing I remember is getting killed by...someone...The details are a bit....fuzzy...

But somehow, I had achieved the impossible and had awoken from death itself. Now it seems like a have a brand new problem...The Total Problem...

Story intro:

It Begins

In the middle of the baron snowy woodlands a decapitated seemingly lifeless drone corpse lays still in the snow. It had been weeks since the incident at camp. The only sign of activity was the ever present bright red text which read "FATAL ERROR".

There was nothing that could of provoked or warranted that to change however the display in her visor began to change.

Rescuing Host

The girl rises from the dead, her visor glitching rapidly as she tries to collect herself...

It's so cold....She could swear she was FREEZING.

And then that message appears..."CRITICALLY LOW TEMP"

Her visor attempts to form an X, but it isn't capable of displaying properly.

The bitter unnatural cold bites through her metallic embodiment as she feels ice begin to form on the inside. She locates her glasses and puts them back on only for her vision to turn to thermal seeking.

She desperately searches for a heat source driven by the raw and persistent instinct to simply survive.

She finally found one...It's Braiden...Her BROTHER. His body is still on fire even after ALL of this time...

His oil looks so...WARM...No...She CAN'T...She can't be like HER.

But No...she's NEEDS it...She's gonna freeze...she's going to DIE...again...

She has NO CHOICE...

...

What have I done?

[the-final-emily]

Emily! They turned your brother into a figurine!! 😱

But I got...

[the-final-emily]

{I'm about to quit tumblr.

USING MY ASKS FOR ADS IS GOING TOO FAR!!! FUCK ANYONE WHO USES MY ASKS TO ADVERTIZE ANYTHING AT ALL. FUCK THESE BOTS FUCK THIS SITE FOR NOT MANGAING THEM. I'M AM ENRAGED

IF I SEE IT AGAIN, I FUCKING QUIT!}

[fandom-hopping]

I think the best thing about being an artist is spotting things in the piece you KNOW are conveniently placed there because they didn't want to draw whatever it is said thing is hiding.

[bloodywolfwings]

Yeah! It's so fun to notice, although I'm willing to admit that I don't usually notice it lol

[fandom-hopping]

It's not all the time but occasionally I look at something covering a particular detail and go "yeah, same, I wouldn't wanna draw that either" LOL

[the-final-emily]

One of my favorite things about being an artist is occasionally hidding easter eggs in the background of my works! Heck not a single soul has found the one in my BatBook Beach post and it's been up for a little while!

[the-final-emily]

Where here? Where are we? Blue eyes dancing around, scanning the scenery as it bounded forward. Dark claws kicking up snow as it did, black feathering covering most of it's body with the exception of head, hands and bird like feet, the skin an ashy grey. Is drones here? Need to find them.

It seemed panicked, unsure even, practically throwing it's head around as tried to ease it's racing heart and heaving lungs. Soon started making strange loud hisses and raspy grunts, hoping someone would hear it.

@md-ouroboros

The leviathan solver had yet to notice, she has just woken up from her freezing condition. The oil of her own burning brother covering her hands and mouth.

[md-ouroboros]

The creature contained to call out, weaving through the trees before it noticed something. Causing it go quiet as it tried to figure it what it was. Fire? It pondered, soon finding itself walking over to — from it's perspective — the drone by the the fire.

It froze when it saw what was going on, a clawed grey skinned hand hovering above the ground as it's pupils quickly narrowed. This maybe bad idea.

But may be only choice. It then firmly stomped it's hand into the snow, letting out a low repeating vulture like grunts. Six deep lapis eyes staring at the leviathan.

[the-final-emily]

The solver girl doesn't seem to take notice...Now too consumed by the panic of what she had just done.

{I have returned from a break from rping, sorry this reply took so much time}

[md-ouroboros]

It drew back slightly, worry filling into it's eyes as it tried to think on what to do. It then took a quiet breath before walked towards the drone, it's body low to the ground as it let out loud sheepish grunts

(It's okay, hope you enjoyed you break :3)

[the-final-emily]

She finally notices and cautiously backs away.

[solver-lizzy]

Exposition:

Time: Eight months after waking from death.

After waking up from the impossible, Emily had walked aimlessly looking for the bunker once more. It took her two months to finally find home again. By the time he had arrived, everything had changed. Everyone who had thought she had been long dead now fear her for surviving the impossible.

She had lost everything and the only one who understood her was the very same one who had killed her...Uzi. So with no other choice she went to her. It wasn't long before Uzi had found out Emily had been accidently infected with a defective variant of the Solver and pretty much had NO control over it. She spent months training her to be able to properly use it. Training was rather difficult since Emily's Solver differed so drastically from the original.

Today was the day she was supposed to learn how to use the NULL for the very first time. However...A NULL wasn't what was created...It was...something small...bright...glowing...almost white in color...It seemed similar to a NULL but it was obviously not the same. It's text read as "void". It was powerful and had the same pull...in fact it was... too strong. She felt herself be pulled in by her own creation her consciousness fading in and out as she travels though what appears to be a wormhole?

.....

The loud crack of what sounds like thunder shakes the sky as the other end of Emily's void is created. She is violently thrown out of her void into the dimension/planet of Bismuth-12, crashing and rolling over several times from the sheer force. She's half conscious and disoriented for the first few seconds.

When she finally comes to she panics having realized her void is closing, she scrambles to reach it in time only for her to be just barely too late.

NO NO NO NO!!

She has no idea how she originally created that void and now she's STRANDED alone in a dimension/planet she doesn't know with no way back home.

{Note: I was originally gonna have her crash at the campsite but since the starter location is nowhere near there I will let you decide where she is. If it had been camp it may have taken a long time for her to be discovered and may have required spoilers to start the story which I didn't want to do. All that's known so far is Solver Emily crashed into the Bismuth-12 dimeson/universe and Lizzy/Doll did hear that loud boom. Also sorry the intro was so long.}

@the-final-emily

[You're so fine. Also it isn't quite Bismuth-12, but I can treat it as the same universe to make this work. As I imagine the universes this Lizzy and Emily are from are very different. I can so work with this ^^/]

Lizzy was started awake by the crash. Having found shelter in a broken down storage unit on a ratty old couch. The sound made her nervous, wondering what could be around. The panicked voice felt, disturbingly, familiar. She slowly crawled off the couch. Cautiously poking her head out of the storage unit, Doll's eyes blinking open and looking out past her shoulder. She quickly moved back behind the wall, pressing her back against it as her core rattled in her chest. There was no way, there was NO WAY this was happening. Doll kept her eyes on the scene, watching Emily panic at the loss of the portal. Lizzy reset her visual monitors and then looked back out. She was there, it was her. Emily, her old friend.

The guilt came flooding back. Surely, she was going insane right? Emily, Emily was dead. She watched Uzi tear her apart. She looked at Doll with an 'are you seeing what I'm seeing?' Expression. Doll rolled her eyes and nodded, "You're not going insane unless our shared body means shared hallucinations." That wasn't very comforting. Lizzy tenderly stepped out from the broken storage unit door. She took a few cautious steps towards the panicking drone. "E-Emily?" Lizzy's voice was shaking something furious. Her dual colored gaze a strange sight. As well as her new outfit. Clearly it has been a little bit since she graduated in this world. The scared, guilt ridden look said everything. Emily was dead and has STAYED dead.

[solver-lizzy]

Doll was left in the center of the massacre, red spines standing around her as proof of her hunt. A stray piece of metal falling out of her mouth. It wasn't exactly as clean as she'd originally been planning, but atleast now it was done. Maybe now, they could finally rest for a minute. Her eyes drifted over to where Emily popped out of the snow, placing Leo down safe and sound. Rebecca was able to relax a bit, her form stabilizing as the oil liquefied and retracted back into her seams. The bone protrusions falling off and disintegrating.

She stepped over towards Emily and then fell over, her screen displaying the tell tale sign of overheating. Emily, still in the lockness form, let out a warbling cry. The way she moved in this form resembled a sea lion, though ut quickly became normal running as her form stabilized. Doll sighed, using her wings to help her stand straight. They then moved down into the cape formation as she grabbed the extra bottle of oil in Lizzy's bag, walking over to the pair, wings dragging behind her and creating a trail in the snow.

The spines shifted and broke apart into red pixels as she walked away from them. The same happening to the one in the other Uzi's hand. The ever worrywart N was already doing a head count, making sure everyone was ok. Noticing that the large black wolf was missing. Worrying that they could have lost someone, he began looking for signs of where the large beast could have run off too. Worried that they could have been injured in the fight and hiding.

[the-final-emily]

Her armor reactivates and the wolf steps out of the crevasse immediately looking for the fennec she had saved.

Her only focus is finding EMMY.

The purple glows that emits from her armor's joints and creases become quite apparent, now that the chaos is over, she's easier to notice.

[solver-lizzy]

The large wolf would find the fennec fox being tended to by the other version of herself. Having seen her get tossed, Uzi was making sure she didn't incur heavy damage. Checking things like leg movement to see if any joint damage occured. "Anything feel out of place?" She'd ask while holding the fox's paw. Meanwhile V landed near Leo, making her way over to check on him too.

It felt practiced, mostly going right in and checking where Emily had grabbed him. Luckily, she hadn't used teeth. More just having a firm hold. V sughed in relief, that was good. That meant no infection would be passed. "Not infected," holding up her arms and waving them towards N before turning back to check on him. N waved back, making a note on his board. Confirmed not infected. His eyes caught the large wolf, "oh there you are!" A smile on his face as he trotted over. Unaware that she already had a goal in mind.

[the-final-emily]

Get away from her!

The voice is sharp and laced with a growl.

A disheveled, hunched over, barefooted, hatless Uzi run up to Emmy and hugs her desperately.

Are you ok? Did anyone hurt you?

I'm fine...How did you find me?

....

Instinct.

[solver-lizzy]

"Hey I'm just making sure she's ok!" Holding up her hands. She was kind of getting tired of people assuming her to have bad intentions. This frustration meant it took a few for her to realize, she was looking at her herself. A much more worse for wear version, but herself. "Actually, you look like you need to get looked at too." Holding up her hands in a sign of peace, "I'm not gonna hurt anyone ok? No point in starting more useless fights." She attempted to keep her voice low.

Doll watched the interaction. The crossovers were happening more frequently, they didn't even need that portal anymore apparently. She looked down at Rebecca who was recovering by drinking down the oil hungrily. This was very bad, if the mutation code got out, that other world might not have 'the factory' to even attempt the DDs rushed solution. She sighed, closing her eyes and rubbing her visor. Atleast the other world DDs didn't 'burst' the way theirs did.

But that was only a small consolation. They could end up bursting anyways should they be infected. "I'm done, it's all you again." Doll half mumbled. When there was no response she looked back at her tail. "Lizzy? Hellooo." She moved the tail around, but the tail head slumped, eyes closed. Was she snoring? "Dammit Lizzy! Do NOT leave me out here!" Standing now and bringing her tail around. The spiny tail continued to snore in response, making Doll groan and let it be. Whatever, she'd just find a high place till Lizzy woke up.

[the-final-emily]

Get away from us! She growls and bares her rather sharp teeth. Her behavior is far more animalistic than the average beast drone

Sorry, she just doesn't trust...anyone...

The wolf girl puts some strange collar around her neck before returning to hugging Emmy who is now back to her normal form.

[solver-lizzy]

Uzi sighed, not fighting it. Instead saying, "well, trust building starts somewhere." Reaching into her back. She pulled out two newspaper wrapped bundles, tossing them over to Emmy. "Peace offerings" she commented, standing up. "I'm gonna check the perimeter, make that fight didn't wake anything up." She looked to V, "you coming?". V nodded and both took to the air, flying over the trees and dissapearing from view.

The newspaper bundles once unwrapped would reveal snacks. They resembled cinnamon rolls. Bundles of wires being looped off with ties and shaped into a swirl. Within the wire bundles were pods of oil with thermal paste being used as a type of glaze. It had N's cooking creativity all over it. No doubt having made everyone pack a bit before setting out to search for Lizzy. The four armed drone in question had made his way over to the three girls to check their conditions. Marking off his clipboard and putting it into his trailer tail.

[the-final-emily]

She looks at the food noticing the oil on it.

Um Emily...Did you bring the lead seasoning?

UUUM...No?

F***... We can't eat this s***...

Why not?

We run on LEADED oil Ems...

OH....

{beast drones strictly run on leaded oil, similar to how some trucks are deasil. Their oil is incompatible with regular solvers and disassemblers, the lead make their oil poisonous to them. This also means regular oil is poisonous to beast drones.}

[solver-lizzy]

Exposition:

Time: Eight months after waking from death.

After waking up from the impossible, Emily had walked aimlessly looking for the bunker once more. It took her two months to finally find home again. By the time he had arrived, everything had changed. Everyone who had thought she had been long dead now fear her for surviving the impossible.

She had lost everything and the only one who understood her was the very same one who had killed her...Uzi. So with no other choice she went to her. It wasn't long before Uzi had found out Emily had been accidently infected with a defective variant of the Solver and pretty much had NO control over it. She spent months training her to be able to properly use it. Training was rather difficult since Emily's Solver differed so drastically from the original.

Today was the day she was supposed to learn how to use the NULL for the very first time. However...A NULL wasn't what was created...It was...something small...bright...glowing...almost white in color...It seemed similar to a NULL but it was obviously not the same. It's text read as "void". It was powerful and had the same pull...in fact it was... too strong. She felt herself be pulled in by her own creation her consciousness fading in and out as she travels though what appears to be a wormhole?

.....

The loud crack of what sounds like thunder shakes the sky as the other end of Emily's void is created. She is violently thrown out of her void into the dimension/planet of Bismuth-12, crashing and rolling over several times from the sheer force. She's half conscious and disoriented for the first few seconds.

When she finally comes to she panics having realized her void is closing, she scrambles to reach it in time only for her to be just barely too late.

NO NO NO NO!!

She has no idea how she originally created that void and now she's STRANDED alone in a dimension/planet she doesn't know with no way back home.

{Note: I was originally gonna have her crash at the campsite but since the starter location is nowhere near there I will let you decide where she is. If it had been camp it may have taken a long time for her to be discovered and may have required spoilers to start the story which I didn't want to do. All that's known so far is Solver Emily crashed into the Bismuth-12 dimeson/universe and Lizzy/Doll did hear that loud boom. Also sorry the intro was so long.}

@the-final-emily

[You're so fine. Also it isn't quite Bismuth-12, but I can treat it as the same universe to make this work. As I imagine the universes this Lizzy and Emily are from are very different. I can so work with this ^^/]

Lizzy was started awake by the crash. Having found shelter in a broken down storage unit on a ratty old couch. The sound made her nervous, wondering what could be around. The panicked voice felt, disturbingly, familiar. She slowly crawled off the couch. Cautiously poking her head out of the storage unit, Doll's eyes blinking open and looking out past her shoulder. She quickly moved back behind the wall, pressing her back against it as her core rattled in her chest. There was no way, there was NO WAY this was happening. Doll kept her eyes on the scene, watching Emily panic at the loss of the portal. Lizzy reset her visual monitors and then looked back out. She was there, it was her. Emily, her old friend.

The guilt came flooding back. Surely, she was going insane right? Emily, Emily was dead. She watched Uzi tear her apart. She looked at Doll with an 'are you seeing what I'm seeing?' Expression. Doll rolled her eyes and nodded, "You're not going insane unless our shared body means shared hallucinations." That wasn't very comforting. Lizzy tenderly stepped out from the broken storage unit door. She took a few cautious steps towards the panicking drone. "E-Emily?" Lizzy's voice was shaking something furious. Her dual colored gaze a strange sight. As well as her new outfit. Clearly it has been a little bit since she graduated in this world. The scared, guilt ridden look said everything. Emily was dead and has STAYED dead.

[solver-lizzy]

Doll was left in the center of the massacre, red spines standing around her as proof of her hunt. A stray piece of metal falling out of her mouth. It wasn't exactly as clean as she'd originally been planning, but atleast now it was done. Maybe now, they could finally rest for a minute. Her eyes drifted over to where Emily popped out of the snow, placing Leo down safe and sound. Rebecca was able to relax a bit, her form stabilizing as the oil liquefied and retracted back into her seams. The bone protrusions falling off and disintegrating.

She stepped over towards Emily and then fell over, her screen displaying the tell tale sign of overheating. Emily, still in the lockness form, let out a warbling cry. The way she moved in this form resembled a sea lion, though ut quickly became normal running as her form stabilized. Doll sighed, using her wings to help her stand straight. They then moved down into the cape formation as she grabbed the extra bottle of oil in Lizzy's bag, walking over to the pair, wings dragging behind her and creating a trail in the snow.

The spines shifted and broke apart into red pixels as she walked away from them. The same happening to the one in the other Uzi's hand. The ever worrywart N was already doing a head count, making sure everyone was ok. Noticing that the large black wolf was missing. Worrying that they could have lost someone, he began looking for signs of where the large beast could have run off too. Worried that they could have been injured in the fight and hiding.

[the-final-emily]

Her armor reactivates and the wolf steps out of the crevasse immediately looking for the fennec she had saved.

Her only focus is finding EMMY.

The purple glows that emits from her armor's joints and creases become quite apparent, now that the chaos is over, she's easier to notice.

[solver-lizzy]

Uzi held up her hands, "it's ok, no need to panic." She reached back into her bag, taking out a thermas. It was filled with oil, pouring it out into the cap and placing it on the ground. Hoping to coax the fox over to both calm her and hopefully gain her trust. Trying to remember if there was a 'fox squad' or something similar. Only remembering wolf, bear and deer. She was crouched onto one knee next to the oil offering, holding out a hand towards Emily. V and N stood back, letting Uzi work.

[the-final-emily]

Recognizing that voice, Emily runs up to Uzi nearly knocking her over.

She nuzzles into her desperate for comfort. She cares little whether this is her Uzi or not.

[solver-lizzy]

Uzi was indeed knocked over, having not expected the head long rush. Now sitting down while the fox nuzzled into her. She wrapped her arms around Emmy gently, patting her head. N walked over saying, "aaaaw she likes you. Maybe it's cause you're a rescue drone in there." Crouching next to the pair. Uzi chuckled, "probably," Patting the fox's head playfully, "there ya go, see? Not scary at all." She joked. V said, "Well I'm gonna keep looking around for Lizzy." Walking away as her wings deployed. Uzi looked over to her and said, "if you find anything let us know ok?" Turning back to the fox and saying, "once we figure out what to do with you anyways." Scratching her head. She didn't expect to suddenly have a four legged plus one, but Emmy was obviously scared and, she felt kinda of bad for her. If she'd suddenly woken up with no rescue drones around, it's no wonder she'd panic.

[the-final-emily]

She seems to have calmed down resting in the arms of Uzi .

For beast drones the armor automatically engages as a defensive mechanism when they feel panic or detect a threat. But once the drone in question has calmed down they regain control of their animal armor and can retract it.

Emmy is currently trying to figure out how.

[solver-lizzy]

Uzi was finally able to stand, dusting snow off herself. N held out a hand to Emmy, somewhat resembling a DD version of the carnival drones. "Hi! Oh biscuits you're so cute!" His large trailor of a tail moved back and forth dangerously for anyone behind him. Uzi sighed, putting her hands on her hips. "Guess we could go to stables and see if any of the others woke up. Wouldn't want a zoo of sentinels roaming in a panic." Pointing back to the building Lizzy had pointed out before. The one supposedly full of inactive sentinels. N nodded, "are there any more dogs?" He asked this excitedly. Uzi smiled at her boyfriend's excited demeanor. "I think this one's a fox, but there are wolves in there according to my dad." N immediately got even more excited, the joy radiating off the bug in happy wing buzzing.

[the-final-emily]

She seems confused by that. She's no sentinel.

The fox's face is laced with confusion the kind of physical expressiveness not found in sentinels. She seems almost....sapient...

[solver-lizzy]

For now, Uzi and N didn't quite pick up on that. The only sentinel they really knew was Sparky, and he had a whole lot of personality packed into that raptor body. Uzi smiled at Emmy, reaching out a hand to her side and gesturing for her to come over, "wanna come with us? We've got a friend to find and we could use the help." Reaching into her pocket and pulling out a photo. Holding it uo to the fox in hopes that she had some kind of facial recognition software.

The picture was one she'd taken of Lizzy. They were in a large stone hall with Lizzy looking up at old chipping wall art of a skull surrounded by multicolored deisgns of roses and patterns. Likely one of the 'tags' Lizzy had mentioned before. "We're looking for this drone, it's pretty important to us that she comes home safe. Can you help us?" She spoke this with a toothy grin. One familiar on her face, though much, much more relaxed.

[the-final-emily]

She simply let's out a very confident yip and gestures to follow. She knows EXACTLY where Lizzy is.

[solver-lizzy]

Uzi was surprised by this reaction, standing straight and saying, "haha yeah! Lead the way little man." Not knowing that Emmy was A, a girl, and B, a drone. Putting the photo back into her pocket. Putting a hand to the side of her head and saying, "V, we've got her! Follow us from above!" Ready to follow Emmy back to the lodge.

----

In the building itself, the DD's restraints had been removed. Lizzy was already out of the room, calling out for Emmy in a worried tone while Emily remained by the DD's side. Lizzy had checked the other rooms, the main room. There was nowhere left to check for the missing drone and she was getting worried. What if something happened while they were out? What if she went back without Becca? The thoughts stirred in her mind, refusing to let go until she located the girl.

That's when a soft pinging echoed in her mind. Drawing her attention out into the snow.

[EMMY]

A blue text box bouncing above, was that a fox? "No way," she muttered as the fox bounded into view. And then her friends appeared soon after, "...no way." She saw V "oh no." Lizzy sprinted back up the stairs before she could be seen, quickly shutting the door to one of the empty rooms. Doll appeared over her shoulder, "what's with the oil flow increase?" Looking to Lizzy in her now panicked state. Lizzy said, "I'm, i'm not ready. They're here and I'm, I'm not ready." Doll gave her a 'really?' Look. "You're ready to fist fight me and satan but not talk to the loser squad?" Lizzy put her back against the door, "this is different Doll, I, I already attacked them. I almost, killed N." Doll sighed, "correction, I, almost killed N. You had nothing to do with that except waking me up. So get out there and face them head on." She growled, though it wasn't the same as before. This was Doll trying to help, even though she wasn't the most comforting. It did help put Lizzy at ease, still worried about what her friends would say.

[the-final-emily]

She scratches at the door realizing...SHE DOESN'T REMEMBER HOW TO OPEN IT.

She realizes she's just a mere animal...No one would even recognize her. There's no way a beast like her would ever be allowed in...She doesn't know about the internal conflict within the group. All she knows is how deeply she associates UZI with comfort and safety. All she wants is all her comforts in one place. She doesn't even register that V and N are with her. Nor does she register that this isn't HER Uzi...She's too fueled by instinct to acknowledge that.

Uzi and this world's Lizzy are her biggest comforts and in a time of crisis such as literally turning into a wild beast, she needs that comfort more than ever.

[solver-lizzy]

Lizzy heard the scratching and whining associated with a desperate plea to come inside. "Sounds like your 'kid' is back." Lizzy shot a half hearted glare at Doll, "don't call her that. She's the same age as us." Stiffening when she heard Uzi call out, "Lizzy?" Coming up to the door behind the fox. Lizzy took a deep breath, slapping her the sides of her face before opening the door with some hesitation.

[the-final-emily]

She stands there eagerly.

[solver-lizzy]

Lizzy opened the door fully, first looking down at the fox. "When did this happen?" Chuckling, it was a genuine laugh at the absurdity of this whole situation, "You were a beast drone too? So much for 'rumors' haha." bending over just a bit to greet her with a little bit of a clearer head. Next standing up straight and turning to Uzi. The purple haired drone had a very confused look on her face. Lizzy rubbed her visor, "I know, I know, I probably feel a lot worse then I look. A lot has been happening, I've had, no time to process it all." Waving a hand in front of her. "I, haven't had any time to think about how to apologize to you for. For, everything. I'm, jeez, im really tired." Trying to joke.

V had her arms crossed, tapping her tank with her finger. Finally speaking up, "you know what could have helped?" She uncrossed her arms, walking towards Lizzy. She looked angry, but also relieved "Trusting us enough not to run into a BLIZZARD wearing nothing but a dress after awakening a solver." Puting both her hands at Lizzy. "Maybe we could have HELPED with whatever is, happening." Pointing her hands at Emmy next. V sighed, moving in and wrapping her arms around Lizzy. The hug was tight, the smaller drone bringing her arms up to meet it. "I thought I lost you, we all did when we couldn't find you." She was still trying to sound angry.

Lizzy could tell she'd been scared. "I was planning to come back, eventually. I promise I was. But a lot started happening." Looking at Emmy briefly. "All at once." Resting her forehead against V's chest. This wasn't the same kind of fit of emotion her last two encounters had been. "You're right though, it would have been really, really nice to have you all around for some of it." A choked laugh escaping her throat. She hugged V tighter. The DDs warmth felt so familiar, so comforting. Something she hasn't felt in awhile since this all started.

Lizzy didn't realize till then just how much she'd been going. Unable to relax for what felt like more than five minutes since entering the camp. V stepped forward, scooping up Lizzy to the surprise of the others. V turned to Uzi and N, chirping, "I think we can wait on interrogations." Looking down at Lizzy. The drone had fallen asleep standing up. The moment of relaxation was enough to knock her right out. Her visor showing a low battery signal.

[the-final-emily]

FINALLY the beastly armor retracts.

Oh thank robo god! That was terrifiying! I have NO IDEA I was one of them!! They said it was a myth! T-that the Lycanthropes weren't real...

I...I don't understand how I became one of them...I remember nothing...

[solver-lizzy]

Upon changing back, she'd had three sets of eyes on her. Uzi especially had not been expecting the sudden change back. Though after a moment N spoke, moving forward. "Oooh I recognize you!" His tail opening up as his two bottom arms searched around inside. "You're one of the campers." Pulling out a clipboard from fhe collection of random knick knacks. He ran a finger down the list. "Emily Alto, the orchestra drone. Marked down, as, devoured. Oooh biscuits." Putting on of his top hands on his head.

Uzi looked at N, slowly looking back at Emily going, "ooooh sh-" half under her breath. Putting her hands together as she spoke. "I, am so sorry about the, uh, 'eating you' thing. I was not, in my right mind. Buut im, glad you're alive." Giving Emily two awkward thumbs up and a nervous grin. Obviously having talked to Lizzy about the fact that she'd been the one to eat her friends.

[the-final-emily]

I'm...uh...uhh....infected...The Uzi from my world made a gaint oopsie...Upon catching me she hacked into me from the inside out USING the solver....It took a perfectly ripe opportunity and claimed my as a new host...incorrectly...My solver is...defective... also im the only one she DIDNT eat....After decapitating me she simply threw me away.

{It's canon in mainline that Uzi never ate her.}

[solver-lizzy]

Uzi made a sound like sucking in breath through her teeth. "That, sounds worse, actually." V chimed in, "wait wait wait, pause, did you say another reality?" As if to answer her question, Emily poked her head out from the room holding her and the Rebecca's. "Uh, is, everything ok out here?" She asked hesitantly before her eyes landed on the group. Flinching upon seeing Uzi, flashes of memories returning like a headache. Her frightened, cautious expression matched the raised fins on her back.

Not just Uzi, V and N. V had shot someone just looking at her wrong. Though upon seeing Lizzy in her arms, the worry took over. Coming over and speaking shakily, "I knew I should've told her to stay out. I-Is she ok?" Hesitant to get any closer to the trio. The wild code inside her was telling her to run. V looked down at Lizzy, sighing at the absurdity of the situation they were in. "Yeah, she's just tired. I don't think I blame her." Looking at the two Emilys now in front of her.

N suddenly went, "oh, oooh" looking at one then the other, the clipboard subtly following his movements. "YOU'RE Emily Alto." Pointing to Emily. Uzi sighed, "ok, you, are the one I'm apologizing to, right?" Emily looked visibly uncomfortable, stepping back, "uh, yeah, I think. You're the Uzi from this reality, r-right?" Uzi scratched her head, "as far as i'm aware?" Shrugging. Emily nodded, "um, apology, accepted..." for the sake of ensuring Lizzy's safety, she didn't want to push it. Though it was very clear her and Emmy did NOT share the same feelings about Uzi.

Emily walked just a bit closer to V, holding out her arms. Mumbling, "I, I can take her if you want." Though V replied, "just show me where I can put her. Then we can all talk about what the hell is happening here," With a nod and some hesitancy, Emily lead V to where Lizzy had been sleeping prior. Down the stairs and leaving the other three.

[the-final-emily]

Um...I'm just gonna go quietly um...read in a corner....The atmosphere is to thick you can cut it with a knife...

She awkwardly goes to a quiet corner and randomly chooses a book to read.

She quickly realizes it's biblical...and immediately looks uncomfortable...

[solver-lizzy]

Noticing her discomfort, N walked over. Sitting near but not next to her. Unlike Rebecca he seemed to always have his bottom arms folded behind his back. Like he was keeping them out of the way. Odd handles present on all forearms and his back, two on his tail as well. His ever inclusive instincts kicking in. "Hiya, so you're from another reality huh? That sounds so cool." Chuckling with his bright smile. "And your fox form is really cute too. Oh uh, is that, rude, to say?" Pointing at himself with the sudden realization.

[the-final-emily]

Oh it's not...To be honest it's still new to me.

[solver-lizzy]

N tilted his head, "oh yeah?" Still with that smile on his face. "You, wanna talk about it? I understand if you don't, but I promise I'm a good listener." Putting his hand to his chest. He had a maturity and professionalism that felt a little odd for N's usual nature. But still carried the kind aura.

[the-final-emily]

I mean...if I start talking...I won't shut up...and it may end up leading to....over sharing.

[solver-lizzy]

N chuckled, "that's ok, maybe once it's all out, you'll feel better." Giving her a reassuring smile. "I won't tell a soul if you don't want me to either." Getting more comfy in his seat. His tail slid open and he rummaged around inside. "I'll even give you this." He pulled out a journal. The kind that was bound in light leather. Attached to it was a pen. Holding it out to her and chirping, "writing can also help you put your thoughts together. I used to do it all the time when I still made deliveries."

[the-final-emily]

Well...you're in for hell...Because what bothers me most is my MOTHER...and our own organization...

{Trigger Warning: Religious topics, religious extrem!sm, homoph0bia, and ab*sive parenting, and unethical practices.}

She spills her guts and drops bomshell after bombshell.

At home I lived with my religious, strict, homoph0bic, nutcase of a widowed remarried mom...After she had lost my dad...she had lost her mind...got consumed by religious extremism...The 5 times I was sent to conversion therapy...All the times she tried to "save me"...All the times she failed to "pray the gay away"...All the times she would lock me up in the closet whenever she caught me dating another girl. Every time she said I was "unsavable" and that "robo god doesn't love me." Part of me...doesn't want to go back home...She calls me demon possessed...and she thinks Uzi is the "spawn of the robo devil"...

She, "Dad", and Lizzy are the only family I have left...Everyone else is dead or missing. My real dad was killed by a disassembly drone... My sister Kelsey disappeared a day before prom and never returned...Doll killed my half sister Penny at prom...Then Uzi killed my brother Braidon at camp...

But here...I feel like I have family...I feel safe...here...I know this is wrong but...I'd rather just stay here.

Because here at least Lizzy actually CARES about me...In my world...she's a total popular, snotty, stuck up, phone obsessed b!tch!

Not to mention my world has HUNDREDS of disassembly drones, most entirely consumed by the desire to kill and don't want redemption. It got so bad we beast drones were created to combat them.

We have an organization known as the Worker Drone Defense Force or WDF for short. It was founded by Kahn and Nori Doorman and was created to protect worker drones from the disassemblers. Over time it grew and spread to 25 other bunkers. He managed ALL of it, which is not an easy job. He was always overwhelmed as stressed. He tries his best to keep up but often struggles to lead all 26 bunkers.

The WDF decided to actually fight back against the Murder Drones but their methods were quite unethical. Turning their "problematic" or "unwanted" workers into combat animals. Their way of doing this was to alter these poor drones while they were wide awake. No magnets were used to relieve the pain.

They would forcefully add disassembler parts to them without even considering their system's compatibility. Most don't survive the compatibility issues.

All of this is happening right under Khan's nose...He has no idea this is even going on in his own organization...

I have no memory of my alterations...

{Emily being religious or at least religiously raised is a common headcanon within her fandom. My writing can get rather deep and dark since I'm not one to shy away from realism. Though it won't get much darker than this.}

[solver-lizzy]

N listened quietly, thoughtfully. Letting her get it all out. From the sounds of it, she's had it pretty rough. He wasn't, unfamiliar, with this kind of story unfortunately. Serving humans and delivering packages, he'd met folk from all walks of life. Including those who were less than kind towards others. Remaining calm and collected despite the bleak words. Trying to think about Khan and Nori in that situation was certainly hard. Causing such harm even if unknowingly. He reached out, rubbing Emmy's back as she got into the latter half of her story. He only spoke once she was done, "well, for what it's worth, I think she's completely wrong. From everything I used to hear about the gods, I don't think any of them would judged you and Uzi to be 'demons'. You already seem like a very kind and lovely drone. If she couldn't see the wonder she brought into the world, that means she was blind." Making a buzzing purring noise as he spoke.

This world had many gods, many of them having duality in what they represent. Beings the humans worshipped, now shattered in stone across the torn up battlefield. He could understand why in all of that she'd become so attatched to their Lizzy. The one that had become popular not through tyranny, but by being unapologetically herself. Even though occasionally that meant being a bit of a bully to those like Uzi. All because they'd been locked up together after events that caused the doors to shut essentially for good. Apologies had long since been shared between the two after the near end of the world. N couldn't help but feel bad for Emmy's mom. She sounds like a horrible person yes. One who was driven down a dark path through grief and religious extremism. It reminded him of Tessa.

The human girl who'd run away from earth just to escape an awful, horrible situation. And who's shop had become the trios favorite for delivery. Despite the hell the girl had been put through, she'd remained kind. "I'm proud of you for coming out the other side of the tunnel. You shouldn't have been pushed into it in the first place, but your being here now tells me that you're a very strong drone. I don't know if I'd be able to do the same honestly. I promise, you're safe here, for however long you want it to be." His words were sincere, carried in a buzzing purring sound. It was yet another story he vowed to carry with him. A tragic, horrible, but deeply personal tale. Stored away in his core full of them.

[the-final-emily]

Well...

My opinion on Uzi isn't what anyone would...actually...expect...

In my world she's deemed as a "freak", feared and borderline hated by everyone. She was avoided like the plauge....

My home life was so strict...I was forced to hide...to mask....to pretend...All I had were my peers....so I did everything I could to appeal to them while also maintaining obedience to my mother's strict rules...

My life was a strict religious prision of acting.

I was never allowed to be myself...

But Uzi...she was different....she stood out...

She was just so defiant, rebellious, brave, and unapologetically herself. No one could stop her...she seemed...fearless...

She's...everything I wish I could be...but...I'm just...a coward...

And I lov-

.....

I look up to her...despite everything.

[solver-lizzy]

N chuckled at that last part. Their worlds were so different, he wouldn't be all that surprised. "Guess I got lucky in this reality. Cause I feel the same way. When the world felt like it was ending, Uzi was standing strong and defiant. She inspired me and others to fight back, even if I'm not exactly built for 'combat' haha." He certainly didn't look it. Being much more soft in design than the average DD. Even compared to V who was much smaller.

"Should've seen Lizzy back then. She was so done she started fighting with an old pipe on the ground, back to back with Thad." Trying to lighten the mood a bit before adding. "I don't think you're a coward. You're caged in a lot of ways." He pointed to her chest, "but I can feel it. There's a strong, brave and kind drone in here. You 'look up' to Uzi for a reason...I don't think you've ever been given the credit you deserve for making it through everything you have. You deserve it though. And I'll be the first, but not the only one, to tell you that. You don't have to mask here, I think I speak for everyone when I say: I want to know Emily Day better." Putting a hand to his chest.

[the-final-emily]

Um do you think they'll be...ok?

Me brining Uzi here seemed to have caused...issues...and I kinda feel bad...

N rubbed the back of his neck. Tensions were definitely, high. But being the optimist he was could help but chirp, "I think it'll be ok. We just have a few," he moved his hand in a circle motion, "bumps, to get through. But that's not your fault. You were helping us find Lizzy. I don't think any of us were expecting to find reanimated drones. Especially not of the campers, and their doubles from other realities. It's, a lot. But nothing the drones of wolf squad can't handle!" Patting her back before standing. "Why don't we go check on Lizzy and the others? Or, you can stay here if you're not ready. I completely understand." Pointing down the stairs where the others had gone.

[the-final-emily]

W-wolf squad?

[solver-lizzy]

N chuckled, "oh, have you not heard that one? It's kind of a tribe name. Originally that was the name of Mr. Doorman's rescue squad. Because they had wolf mounts." Leaning against the wooden railing. "With everyone basically being a family after all was said and done, we just started calling ourselves 'wolf squad'. I mean, V was unofficially adopted by mr and mrs doorman, I'm with Uzi, Lizzy's with V, Thad and Lizzy are found family. So we're 'wolf squad' haha." He then realized, "Thad! I have to call Thad and tell him we found Lizzy. He's with Mr and Mrs Doorman in another search group." Fishing a phone out of his tail.

[the-final-emily]

Oh...well...that's kinda odd...

I mean...I...turn INTO a similar animal...The idea of being ridden is...weird...I hate how I can relate to those...mounts...because I'm a fox...

The thought anything remotely similar to me being ridden is kinda off-putting...

Though I'm defiantly too small small anyway...

[solver-lizzy]

N nodded "I can see why you'd think that. That's the reason we thought you liked Uzi so much in that form haha. Because she's internally a rescue drone, like Lizzy. But the mounts weren't just 'mounts'. They were squad members. The way Mr. Doorman talks about Admin made him feel like another drone. I didn't know he wasn't until he said 'he was my wolf, ny partner in crim." Doing an attempt to mimic the old man's voice, poorly. "I mean, technically, im a 'mount' too." Turning just enough to show off the handles on his back. "I wasn't sure how to feel about it at first when I woke up. But I warmed up to it thanks to my old builder. I get to carry Uzi when she doesn't feel like flying, sometimes one of our wingless friends. It's like another way or hanging out. Atleast, that's how I look at it." Chuckling and turning himself back.

[the-final-emily]

Man I cannot stress enough how different it is here....

In my world ALL animal drones are made either for war, murder, or destruction.

And 90% of those animal drones are beast drones...victims...and no two beast drones are the same either. They can be ANY animal including arthropods and sea creatures...

Her memory as a beast drone slowly trickles in.

There's this one named Scorpio...They're a scorpion. Their real name is Sam. They're the chill one. And one of the few to actually have nanite acid in their tail though it's chemical make up was altered where only beast drone saliva can destroy it...

We have a rat named Mattie. She's a total nerd like me and freaking LOVES her assigned animal. Apparently she actually does love rats.

Then we have a sabortooth named Leo. He's protectice and strong...

Then there's the Kangaroo named Conner...He's just a sweetheart.

We have a monkey named Mallow. He's...energetic and overly silly.

And then there's... Ursa...our leader...The grizzly bear... He...takes our jobs seriously to a tee...He has no heart for disassmeblers...and will kill them on sight. He also destroys anyone infected with the Triangular Plauge.

{LOL Emily knows two Sam's. The magnet addict and the scorpion. Also I have to many male beast drones. Need to think up some more female ones.}

[solver-lizzy]

N took out a journal as she spoke. Writing down the names and animals associated as well as the little notes. It was a habit he'd formed long ago when there were many more DDs to keep track of. The thing itself looked beat up, like it'd been jostled around in his tail for a long time. He marked fown the info with a smile before putting the journal away. "They sound like wonderful friends haha. If I ever get the chance, I'd like to meet them. If, they'd have me anyways." Placing his two bottom arms in their spot behind his back. "Afterall, active or not, I'm still a DD. I can understand that."

(I was tempted to make a breaker Sam only because I thought it would be hilarious if the way to stun him long enough to be connectored was to magnet him into a state of being docile. Because of how much of a 'stoner' he is LOL)

[the-final-emily]

Most are...except for Ursa...

[solver-lizzy]

N nodded, "then if I ever can, I'd love to get to know them." Smiling and then looking over the railing where the others were. Down below, Uzi and V were looking over Lizzy. Emily sat awkwardly across the table on the other couch. It didn't look like the tension was getting any lighter. With Emily looking ready to jump out of her skin, gripping her skirt tightly. Glancing up at Uzi every once in awhile. N readjusted his hat and said, "I think I need to go talk with miss Alto, she looks ready to jump out of her capsule." Readjusting his coat next like he was preparing for a job interview.

[the-final-emily]

I'll just...stay up here...

[solver-lizzy]

N looked to Emmy and nodded, looking down to her book. He reached into his tail, "say, I've got a few fun books on me." Pulling them out one by one as he named them, "may bird, Gregor the overlander, oh! This one's fun, it's about a man who moves in with a family who's got a deep connection to dragons. 'Thr fire within'. And this one-oh, it's a little boring haha." Holding up a book in his last hand titles, 'the dazzling dance of drone types'. With quite a few printed across the cover. Some resembling the types she'd already seen, orchestra, carnival and rescue, but without the mutations that made them more animalistic.

[the-final-emily]

I'm um more of a Sci-fi girl....Besides there's a whole library up here.

I'll be fine. Just please check on my counterpart.

[solver-lizzy]

N put the books back, nodding. "Well if you need anything, I'll be around." Tipping his hat to her before going downstairs to try and help elevate some of the rising tensions. It was a somewhat familiar scene to him. This left Emmy upstairs with the Rebecca's who'd yet to make an appearance outside the room.

[the-final-emily]

Emily simply take a book from one of the shelves and nervously reads. Not ready to deal with the other half of the tension. Her rejection of Becc'as confession long ago still fresh on her mind.

[solver-lizzy]

Things wound down slowly. N speaking with Emily seemed to help, although the conversation itself was out of ear shot. It was a talk he'd given before, though modified for Emily's unique situation. Her form was new but the infection, not so much really. Though only a few remembered the time before it's arrival.

Uzi was leaned up against the couch Lizzy laid on, crossing her arms and looking down at the pink drone. She could only imagine what the past few days had been like, let alone the two weeks leading up to it while she was missing. It kind of pissed her off that Lizzy ran off like that. Made her wanna give Lizzy atleast one good jab for not trusting them enough. For now, she was just glad that the situation seemed stable enough, for now. Her eyes moved back up the stairs towards Emmy, arms still crossed. She was admittedly curious about how this all happened. Though she was sure she'd have answers when Lizzy woke up, eventually.

[the-final-emily]

Meanwhile Emmy is trying her best to keep herself preoccupied with her book trying to forget her woes.

{The timing of your return couldn't be more perfect. I desperately need something to keep my mind off of the devastation I feel over how much Roblox sucks as a whole and how their new chat segregation coming tomorrow will destroy my favorite game Murder Drones Reassembled. The dread and stress I feel is immeasurable.}

[solver-lizzy]

When Lizzy finally woke up, it wasn't pleasant. The disorienting function fog was even worse this time. Trying to push herself up and failing. She felt a hand on her back. There was a voice, it felt distant at first. Her microphone not quite picking up the words. It came through when her optics finally focused on the image. V was crouched in front of the couch, hand on Lizzy's back. The pink drone sat up, hand to her head. It felt like her body was re calibrating. Too much time outside her body maybe? Her limbs felt abnormally heavy, causing her to slump. V caught her by the shoulders and sat down on the couch next to her.

Uzi pushed herself into a standing position. "What have you been doing out here!?" Seeing the condition on full display. Lizzy attempted to look up at Uzi, "it is a decently long story." Even her voice had to recalibrate, sounding closer to a factory fresh drone when she spoke. Uzi sighed, sitting down opposite of V. Pulling off her bag and placing it on the ground. She unzipped it, taking out a heavy duty laptop and three connective wires. "I'm gonna help you out." First connecting the wires to her laptop and then walking over to Lizzy. Before the wires were plugged in, Emily stood up.

"W-wait hang on, what are you doing?" Holding up her hands. Uzi turned to Emily and said, "I'm just gonna help her recalibrate. I do this all the time for type changes." Holding up the wires. "Look, I can even explain what I'm doing while I do it. The quicker the better." Plugging the wires in somewhere behind Lizzy's coat collar. Emily hesitantly walked over and stood next to where Uzi sat. Booting up her laptop after a 'crack' of her knuckles.

(Eeee. I don't really play roblox but I've definitely heard about it. I'm glad I returned in time then. It sucks so much losing a good game.)

[the-final-emily]

She continues to read not ready to face Becca knowing there's already enough drama downstairs and doesn't want to cause more upstairs.

[solver-lizzy]

(Tfw you lose your response, twice)

Uzi spoke like a doctor. Directing Lizzy to perform simple actions to test calibration. It went pretty quickly, Lizzy regaining full control quickly enough. Once finished, Uzi unplugged the wires on both ends. Lizzy rubbed the back of her neck. V pat her back and took her hand away, "feeling better now?" Resting her arms on her legs. The pink drone nodded and looked to Uzi, "thanks, I owe you one-" she let out an 'OW' rubbing her arm where she'd been jabbed.

Uzi crossed her arms, "I'd feel too bad doing that while you're half functioning. Seriously, into a blizzard!?" Lizzy laughed, sitting up straight. "Not my best move, yeah." Uzi sighed, shaking her head and turning her attention to Emily. The breaker flinched upon making eye contact. Uzi held out her arms, "look, I'm not gonna eat you, or Lizzy, or anyone else. You can chill." Emily tapped her fingers together, tail lashing back and forth. She tried to avoid looking at the two of them.

In her vision, Uzi, N and V were consumed by harsh yellow light. Twisting and moving like it was wound up to attack. The only one not consumed by this harsh yellow overlay was Lizzy. "I-I uh, just can't seem, to get calm." Looking down to the ground. Lizzy got up, walking over to Emily. The pink drone wrapped an arm around the blue one's shoulders. Inherently she knew what was happening with the breakers to some degree. It was mostly a mood thing, being able to feel the vibes coming off them. "It's ok, there's no danger here I promise. You can put those alarms to rest." Bringing an arm down and softening down the fins which stood in anxiety.

It was slow, but the harsh yellow light calmed into a manageable hum. Not gone, but soothed by the admin. Enough for her to start gasping, like she'd come up from under water. Her fins folding down into a neutral state for the first time since she'd emerged from the room. Uzi was surprised by this reaction, sitting up straighter. "Is it like, an instinct response?" Emily rubbed her head, "I'm, uh, not sure. It just felt, overwhelming."

[the-final-emily]

Hey, I know you're avoiding me Emmy.

N-No I'm not...

Well you shouldn't, I have information you need to know abou- BOOOM! CRACK!

IT'S TOO LATE!! THEY'RE HERE EMMY RUN!!!

[solver-lizzy]

Rebecca's eyes opened, the spins of her back standing on end. She'd decided to close her eyes after waking up with a splitting headache. But rhe crashes brought her to full attention. The oil forming the for beastial appearance as she slithered out the room to find the others. Seeing that they had new members. Great, more people. More, was that Uzi? Whatever, she was done with the surprises.

Every system inside her flaring for a fight. The complete opposite of Emily's instinctual reaction. Which had flared back up with the sounds. V stood, her arm opening into a gun. Uzi looked up and said, "Careful with that. Don't nanite anyone we care about." V nodded, "Yeah yeah I know. It's gonna be hard with everyone grouped up though." Walking towards the blasted open entrance and deploying her wings. Trying to make herself appear larger like a territorial bird.

[the-final-emily]

There's a sudden crash of the door falling and the beating of wings.

They land...3 more disassembly drones stand before Emily.

[solver-lizzy]

Seeing them all, she would have expected to feel more, anything really. Sorrow, pain, nostalgia atleast. But no, all Rebecca saw were harsh yellow lights. Thorny and jutting towards her, threatening a fight. The feeling was much more intense then before with just Becca. V saw the oily snake rush past her. "HEY! DON'T JUST RUSH IN!" Her words fell on deaf ears. The girl's form had changed significantly. Enlongating and twisting under the influence of the odd virus. The body protrustuons returning, encasing the form and making it stronger.

The DDs would feel it first, the threat. The wordless taunting emanating from the beasts presence. A battle for territory, 'come and try, I dare you'. She resembled the old depictions of Medusa in some ways. The ancient monster known as the gorgon. Even V felt her metallic feathers prickle, preparing her for a fight.

[Administrator privledges granted]

(Ive always loved the idea of using different fonts for different characters. I want to do that with my comics eventually LOL. I'll definitely be saving that link)

[the-final-emily]

Emily doesn't think to do anything but RUN. Forced back into her beast from she once again bolt out the door. The disassemblers who were formerly her friends give chase.

Through the baron snowy fields Emily could only think to do one thing...RUN.

Eventually her luck runs out and she's caught until...

{Basically this scene (Beast Uzi as the white wolf, Emily as the gray wolf/gray haired man, and Leo as the guy with the collar.}

It appears these dimensions are beginning to merge at an alarming rate...

{Took a break from rping to allow Kori week to go uninterrupted.}

[solver-lizzy]

(Had to skim but I get the idea. Also thanks!)

The others weren't far behind. Following in order to try and keep the girl safe. All at once the counter attack was started. Rebecca running up beside and moving past the wolf's quick movement. With good enough reaction time, the large lizard drone could even be used as a temporary platform. Grabbing the DD Daren to slam him into the ground and halting his pursuit. Her aggression was rising with the activity.

Lizzy could only watch watched in temporary stunned awe at the battle taking place. In all of it, she's felt so. No, she had to stop thinking like that. But it was true right? What was she going to do in a situation like this? Her legs shook, could she even keep up with them? "L..i..LIZZY!" Lizzy was snapped out of it by Doll's voice. "Give me the wheel! You're in no condition for this!" Serious red eyes looking at her. Lizzy hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

[Admin switched]

Lizzy's eye hue switched, pink overlaying the red now as the tail opened up in full bloom. Glowing pink eyes turning back to the scene. "Time to test your theory," Doll started, moving down into an all fours position. Wings shot out of her back, matching those she had in the code based reality. Spines lining them like feathers. "Don't hurt anyone we care about." Doll nodded and said, "got it, I won't hurt anyone YOU care about." Wings flapping as she joined the fray. Mostly trying to find a way to put an end to this fight before something drastic happened. Lizzy could only watch, now in the passengers seat. Eyes scanning the scene before her. The doubles registering in her system briefly confused her. Were there always-no, they've been here. The doubles have been here since, since Emmy arrived. It was getting harder to hold onto those facts, but she didn't quite understand why though. Maybe it was the exhaustion. So much was happening afterall.

[the-final-emily]

The wolf quickly grabs the fennec in her jaws and throws her onto her back as she zips past the other two pursuers. The full land speed capability of beast drones on display as she weaves through rocky snow covered walls and boulders. Their land speed surpasses the fastest animal known to man.

The disassemblers are persistent, despite their lesser speed they use short cuts to catch up and slam the "dire wolf" to the ground the fennec falling off her back.

It's then the color of this beast is finally noticed as she struggles once more to stand. A bright purple glow radiates from every crease and joint. Her exterior metal plated armor a very deep dark grey, nearly black. Even her body language is hauntingly familiar. You have a deep suspicion you know exactly who this is.

As she stands the disassemblers close in for another attack only to be pounced by Leo, a sabertoothed panther drone; pushing them away.

[solver-lizzy]

Doll began diving, folding in her wings. She took stock of the situation, looking between every action. It was overstimulating in a lot of ways. The surface of Copper-9 hadn't seen this much activity since the days of the hives when their parents were still alive. "BACK OFF!" She yelled in warning to allies. Her wings opening as the spines glowed a harsh red. Emily looked up, nearly immediately understanding. The shape familiar to her, but through the pages of a fantasy book.

She took the larger lochness form, diving under the snow and heading straight for Leo. She jumped up and broke the surface of the snow, grabbing him by the scruff and diving back under, moving away from the DDs. Spines began to rain down around the DDs. Forcing them into a tighter formation through diving and careful shots, sloppy as they were for a first try. Flying upwards directly above them, arching and then moving downward in a spin. It was being driven by pure instinct. Her solver had been stabilized and was at full maturity at last.

Lizzy's elegant form and movements contrasted by Doll's harsh attacks created an almost hypnotic beauty. The red glowing spines began raining down upon the DDs. Quiet, quiet, she needed some quiet. The sooner they were dealt were, the better. They couldn't be saved one by one, even with Lizzy's abilities. The best thing to do for them was to put them out of their misery. Landing down in the center of the attack, moving forward with a growl towards any that made it out of the bladed rain.

It was frightening to watch, her quick attacks. She was angry, tired, and hungry. A hunger that hadn't truly been fulfilled since she ended up in that dark space that felt like the bottom of the ocean. Pressure and darkness so oppressive that you forgot you existed at times. Those were the good times. This, was true freedom. The stimulation she'd been deprived from for so long. Too much and too little at the same time. By the time she was done, there'd only be pieces and oil strewn about.

[the-final-emily]

The wolf and fennec still being horrifyingly in range are left to pure instinct...The wolf acts first, quickly grabbing the fennec and slinging her out of range at the cost of taking the hit of the stray spines. It forces her back to her drone from as she crawls into a crevasse waiting for her armor to reactivate.

Her drone form wasn't seen in the chaos nor did anyone know she was hit.

She yanks out the spines with a resilient defiance only Uzi could muster, if she had been seen it would be no doubt that's who she is. The spines didn't penetrate deep, the armor absorbing the impact and redirecting them to only pierce her clothing.

She curses under her breath, this Uzi is an unapologetic sailor mouth.

[the-final-emily]

SO IM GONNA MAKE THIS ABUNDANTLY CLEAR

You are to NEVER repost my artwork ANYWHERE. NO ifs, ands, or buts about it.

After my horrific experience with that cesspit Pinterest, I will no longer be nice about this anymore. My work belongs to ME and only I have the right to repost it!

[solver-lizzy]

Exposition:

Time: Eight months after waking from death.

After waking up from the impossible, Emily had walked aimlessly looking for the bunker once more. It took her two months to finally find home again. By the time he had arrived, everything had changed. Everyone who had thought she had been long dead now fear her for surviving the impossible.

She had lost everything and the only one who understood her was the very same one who had killed her...Uzi. So with no other choice she went to her. It wasn't long before Uzi had found out Emily had been accidently infected with a defective variant of the Solver and pretty much had NO control over it. She spent months training her to be able to properly use it. Training was rather difficult since Emily's Solver differed so drastically from the original.

Today was the day she was supposed to learn how to use the NULL for the very first time. However...A NULL wasn't what was created...It was...something small...bright...glowing...almost white in color...It seemed similar to a NULL but it was obviously not the same. It's text read as "void". It was powerful and had the same pull...in fact it was... too strong. She felt herself be pulled in by her own creation her consciousness fading in and out as she travels though what appears to be a wormhole?

.....

The loud crack of what sounds like thunder shakes the sky as the other end of Emily's void is created. She is violently thrown out of her void into the dimension/planet of Bismuth-12, crashing and rolling over several times from the sheer force. She's half conscious and disoriented for the first few seconds.

When she finally comes to she panics having realized her void is closing, she scrambles to reach it in time only for her to be just barely too late.

NO NO NO NO!!

She has no idea how she originally created that void and now she's STRANDED alone in a dimension/planet she doesn't know with no way back home.

{Note: I was originally gonna have her crash at the campsite but since the starter location is nowhere near there I will let you decide where she is. If it had been camp it may have taken a long time for her to be discovered and may have required spoilers to start the story which I didn't want to do. All that's known so far is Solver Emily crashed into the Bismuth-12 dimeson/universe and Lizzy/Doll did hear that loud boom. Also sorry the intro was so long.}

@the-final-emily

[You're so fine. Also it isn't quite Bismuth-12, but I can treat it as the same universe to make this work. As I imagine the universes this Lizzy and Emily are from are very different. I can so work with this ^^/]

Lizzy was started awake by the crash. Having found shelter in a broken down storage unit on a ratty old couch. The sound made her nervous, wondering what could be around. The panicked voice felt, disturbingly, familiar. She slowly crawled off the couch. Cautiously poking her head out of the storage unit, Doll's eyes blinking open and looking out past her shoulder. She quickly moved back behind the wall, pressing her back against it as her core rattled in her chest. There was no way, there was NO WAY this was happening. Doll kept her eyes on the scene, watching Emily panic at the loss of the portal. Lizzy reset her visual monitors and then looked back out. She was there, it was her. Emily, her old friend.

The guilt came flooding back. Surely, she was going insane right? Emily, Emily was dead. She watched Uzi tear her apart. She looked at Doll with an 'are you seeing what I'm seeing?' Expression. Doll rolled her eyes and nodded, "You're not going insane unless our shared body means shared hallucinations." That wasn't very comforting. Lizzy tenderly stepped out from the broken storage unit door. She took a few cautious steps towards the panicking drone. "E-Emily?" Lizzy's voice was shaking something furious. Her dual colored gaze a strange sight. As well as her new outfit. Clearly it has been a little bit since she graduated in this world. The scared, guilt ridden look said everything. Emily was dead and has STAYED dead.

[solver-lizzy]

Uzi held up her hands, "it's ok, no need to panic." She reached back into her bag, taking out a thermas. It was filled with oil, pouring it out into the cap and placing it on the ground. Hoping to coax the fox over to both calm her and hopefully gain her trust. Trying to remember if there was a 'fox squad' or something similar. Only remembering wolf, bear and deer. She was crouched onto one knee next to the oil offering, holding out a hand towards Emily. V and N stood back, letting Uzi work.

[the-final-emily]

Recognizing that voice, Emily runs up to Uzi nearly knocking her over.

She nuzzles into her desperate for comfort. She cares little whether this is her Uzi or not.

[solver-lizzy]

Uzi was indeed knocked over, having not expected the head long rush. Now sitting down while the fox nuzzled into her. She wrapped her arms around Emmy gently, patting her head. N walked over saying, "aaaaw she likes you. Maybe it's cause you're a rescue drone in there." Crouching next to the pair. Uzi chuckled, "probably," Patting the fox's head playfully, "there ya go, see? Not scary at all." She joked. V said, "Well I'm gonna keep looking around for Lizzy." Walking away as her wings deployed. Uzi looked over to her and said, "if you find anything let us know ok?" Turning back to the fox and saying, "once we figure out what to do with you anyways." Scratching her head. She didn't expect to suddenly have a four legged plus one, but Emmy was obviously scared and, she felt kinda of bad for her. If she'd suddenly woken up with no rescue drones around, it's no wonder she'd panic.

[the-final-emily]

She seems to have calmed down resting in the arms of Uzi .

For beast drones the armor automatically engages as a defensive mechanism when they feel panic or detect a threat. But once the drone in question has calmed down they regain control of their animal armor and can retract it.

Emmy is currently trying to figure out how.

[solver-lizzy]

Uzi was finally able to stand, dusting snow off herself. N held out a hand to Emmy, somewhat resembling a DD version of the carnival drones. "Hi! Oh biscuits you're so cute!" His large trailor of a tail moved back and forth dangerously for anyone behind him. Uzi sighed, putting her hands on her hips. "Guess we could go to stables and see if any of the others woke up. Wouldn't want a zoo of sentinels roaming in a panic." Pointing back to the building Lizzy had pointed out before. The one supposedly full of inactive sentinels. N nodded, "are there any more dogs?" He asked this excitedly. Uzi smiled at her boyfriend's excited demeanor. "I think this one's a fox, but there are wolves in there according to my dad." N immediately got even more excited, the joy radiating off the bug in happy wing buzzing.

[the-final-emily]

She seems confused by that. She's no sentinel.

The fox's face is laced with confusion the kind of physical expressiveness not found in sentinels. She seems almost....sapient...

[solver-lizzy]

For now, Uzi and N didn't quite pick up on that. The only sentinel they really knew was Sparky, and he had a whole lot of personality packed into that raptor body. Uzi smiled at Emmy, reaching out a hand to her side and gesturing for her to come over, "wanna come with us? We've got a friend to find and we could use the help." Reaching into her pocket and pulling out a photo. Holding it uo to the fox in hopes that she had some kind of facial recognition software.

The picture was one she'd taken of Lizzy. They were in a large stone hall with Lizzy looking up at old chipping wall art of a skull surrounded by multicolored deisgns of roses and patterns. Likely one of the 'tags' Lizzy had mentioned before. "We're looking for this drone, it's pretty important to us that she comes home safe. Can you help us?" She spoke this with a toothy grin. One familiar on her face, though much, much more relaxed.

[the-final-emily]

She simply let's out a very confident yip and gestures to follow. She knows EXACTLY where Lizzy is.

[solver-lizzy]

Uzi was surprised by this reaction, standing straight and saying, "haha yeah! Lead the way little man." Not knowing that Emmy was A, a girl, and B, a drone. Putting the photo back into her pocket. Putting a hand to the side of her head and saying, "V, we've got her! Follow us from above!" Ready to follow Emmy back to the lodge.

----

In the building itself, the DD's restraints had been removed. Lizzy was already out of the room, calling out for Emmy in a worried tone while Emily remained by the DD's side. Lizzy had checked the other rooms, the main room. There was nowhere left to check for the missing drone and she was getting worried. What if something happened while they were out? What if she went back without Becca? The thoughts stirred in her mind, refusing to let go until she located the girl.

That's when a soft pinging echoed in her mind. Drawing her attention out into the snow.

[EMMY]

A blue text box bouncing above, was that a fox? "No way," she muttered as the fox bounded into view. And then her friends appeared soon after, "...no way." She saw V "oh no." Lizzy sprinted back up the stairs before she could be seen, quickly shutting the door to one of the empty rooms. Doll appeared over her shoulder, "what's with the oil flow increase?" Looking to Lizzy in her now panicked state. Lizzy said, "I'm, i'm not ready. They're here and I'm, I'm not ready." Doll gave her a 'really?' Look. "You're ready to fist fight me and satan but not talk to the loser squad?" Lizzy put her back against the door, "this is different Doll, I, I already attacked them. I almost, killed N." Doll sighed, "correction, I, almost killed N. You had nothing to do with that except waking me up. So get out there and face them head on." She growled, though it wasn't the same as before. This was Doll trying to help, even though she wasn't the most comforting. It did help put Lizzy at ease, still worried about what her friends would say.

[the-final-emily]

She scratches at the door realizing...SHE DOESN'T REMEMBER HOW TO OPEN IT.

She realizes she's just a mere animal...No one would even recognize her. There's no way a beast like her would ever be allowed in...She doesn't know about the internal conflict within the group. All she knows is how deeply she associates UZI with comfort and safety. All she wants is all her comforts in one place. She doesn't even register that V and N are with her. Nor does she register that this isn't HER Uzi...She's too fueled by instinct to acknowledge that.

Uzi and this world's Lizzy are her biggest comforts and in a time of crisis such as literally turning into a wild beast, she needs that comfort more than ever.

Lizzy heard the scratching and whining associated with a desperate plea to come inside. "Sounds like your 'kid' is back." Lizzy shot a half hearted glare at Doll, "don't call her that. She's the same age as us." Stiffening when she heard Uzi call out, "Lizzy?" Coming up to the door behind the fox. Lizzy took a deep breath, slapping her the sides of her face before opening the door with some hesitation.

[the-final-emily]

She stands there eagerly.

[solver-lizzy]

Lizzy opened the door fully, first looking down at the fox. "When did this happen?" Chuckling, it was a genuine laugh at the absurdity of this whole situation, "You were a beast drone too? So much for 'rumors' haha." bending over just a bit to greet her with a little bit of a clearer head. Next standing up straight and turning to Uzi. The purple haired drone had a very confused look on her face. Lizzy rubbed her visor, "I know, I know, I probably feel a lot worse then I look. A lot has been happening, I've had, no time to process it all." Waving a hand in front of her. "I, haven't had any time to think about how to apologize to you for. For, everything. I'm, jeez, im really tired." Trying to joke.

V had her arms crossed, tapping her tank with her finger. Finally speaking up, "you know what could have helped?" She uncrossed her arms, walking towards Lizzy. She looked angry, but also relieved "Trusting us enough not to run into a BLIZZARD wearing nothing but a dress after awakening a solver." Puting both her hands at Lizzy. "Maybe we could have HELPED with whatever is, happening." Pointing her hands at Emmy next. V sighed, moving in and wrapping her arms around Lizzy. The hug was tight, the smaller drone bringing her arms up to meet it. "I thought I lost you, we all did when we couldn't find you." She was still trying to sound angry.

Lizzy could tell she'd been scared. "I was planning to come back, eventually. I promise I was. But a lot started happening." Looking at Emmy briefly. "All at once." Resting her forehead against V's chest. This wasn't the same kind of fit of emotion her last two encounters had been. "You're right though, it would have been really, really nice to have you all around for some of it." A choked laugh escaping her throat. She hugged V tighter. The DDs warmth felt so familiar, so comforting. Something she hasn't felt in awhile since this all started.

Lizzy didn't realize till then just how much she'd been going. Unable to relax for what felt like more than five minutes since entering the camp. V stepped forward, scooping up Lizzy to the surprise of the others. V turned to Uzi and N, chirping, "I think we can wait on interrogations." Looking down at Lizzy. The drone had fallen asleep standing up. The moment of relaxation was enough to knock her right out. Her visor showing a low battery signal.

[the-final-emily]

FINALLY the beastly armor retracts.

Oh thank robo god! That was terrifiying! I have NO IDEA I was one of them!! They said it was a myth! T-that the Lycanthropes weren't real...

I...I don't understand how I became one of them...I remember nothing...

[solver-lizzy]

Upon changing back, she'd had three sets of eyes on her. Uzi especially had not been expecting the sudden change back. Though after a moment N spoke, moving forward. "Oooh I recognize you!" His tail opening up as his two bottom arms searched around inside. "You're one of the campers." Pulling out a clipboard from fhe collection of random knick knacks. He ran a finger down the list. "Emily Alto, the orchestra drone. Marked down, as, devoured. Oooh biscuits." Putting on of his top hands on his head.

Uzi looked at N, slowly looking back at Emily going, "ooooh sh-" half under her breath. Putting her hands together as she spoke. "I, am so sorry about the, uh, 'eating you' thing. I was not, in my right mind. Buut im, glad you're alive." Giving Emily two awkward thumbs up and a nervous grin. Obviously having talked to Lizzy about the fact that she'd been the one to eat her friends.

[the-final-emily]

I'm...uh...uhh....infected...The Uzi from my world made a gaint oopsie...Upon catching me she hacked into me from the inside out USING the solver....It took a perfectly ripe opportunity and claimed my as a new host...incorrectly...My solver is...defective... also im the only one she DIDNT eat....After decapitating me she simply threw me away.

{It's canon in mainline that Uzi never ate her.}

[solver-lizzy]

Uzi made a sound like sucking in breath through her teeth. "That, sounds worse, actually." V chimed in, "wait wait wait, pause, did you say another reality?" As if to answer her question, Emily poked her head out from the room holding her and the Rebecca's. "Uh, is, everything ok out here?" She asked hesitantly before her eyes landed on the group. Flinching upon seeing Uzi, flashes of memories returning like a headache. Her frightened, cautious expression matched the raised fins on her back.

Not just Uzi, V and N. V had shot someone just looking at her wrong. Though upon seeing Lizzy in her arms, the worry took over. Coming over and speaking shakily, "I knew I should've told her to stay out. I-Is she ok?" Hesitant to get any closer to the trio. The wild code inside her was telling her to run. V looked down at Lizzy, sighing at the absurdity of the situation they were in. "Yeah, she's just tired. I don't think I blame her." Looking at the two Emilys now in front of her.

N suddenly went, "oh, oooh" looking at one then the other, the clipboard subtly following his movements. "YOU'RE Emily Alto." Pointing to Emily. Uzi sighed, "ok, you, are the one I'm apologizing to, right?" Emily looked visibly uncomfortable, stepping back, "uh, yeah, I think. You're the Uzi from this reality, r-right?" Uzi scratched her head, "as far as i'm aware?" Shrugging. Emily nodded, "um, apology, accepted..." for the sake of ensuring Lizzy's safety, she didn't want to push it. Though it was very clear her and Emmy did NOT share the same feelings about Uzi.

Emily walked just a bit closer to V, holding out her arms. Mumbling, "I, I can take her if you want." Though V replied, "just show me where I can put her. Then we can all talk about what the hell is happening here," With a nod and some hesitancy, Emily lead V to where Lizzy had been sleeping prior. Down the stairs and leaving the other three.

[the-final-emily]

Um...I'm just gonna go quietly um...read in a corner....The atmosphere is to thick you can cut it with a knife...

She awkwardly goes to a quiet corner and randomly chooses a book to read.

She quickly realizes it's biblical...and immediately looks uncomfortable...

[solver-lizzy]

Noticing her discomfort, N walked over. Sitting near but not next to her. Unlike Rebecca he seemed to always have his bottom arms folded behind his back. Like he was keeping them out of the way. Odd handles present on all forearms and his back, two on his tail as well. His ever inclusive instincts kicking in. "Hiya, so you're from another reality huh? That sounds so cool." Chuckling with his bright smile. "And your fox form is really cute too. Oh uh, is that, rude, to say?" Pointing at himself with the sudden realization.

[the-final-emily]

Oh it's not...To be honest it's still new to me.

[solver-lizzy]

N tilted his head, "oh yeah?" Still with that smile on his face. "You, wanna talk about it? I understand if you don't, but I promise I'm a good listener." Putting his hand to his chest. He had a maturity and professionalism that felt a little odd for N's usual nature. But still carried the kind aura.

[the-final-emily]

I mean...if I start talking...I won't shut up...and it may end up leading to....over sharing.

[solver-lizzy]

N chuckled, "that's ok, maybe once it's all out, you'll feel better." Giving her a reassuring smile. "I won't tell a soul if you don't want me to either." Getting more comfy in his seat. His tail slid open and he rummaged around inside. "I'll even give you this." He pulled out a journal. The kind that was bound in light leather. Attached to it was a pen. Holding it out to her and chirping, "writing can also help you put your thoughts together. I used to do it all the time when I still made deliveries."

[the-final-emily]

Well...you're in for hell...Because what bothers me most is my MOTHER...and our own organization...

{Trigger Warning: Religious topics, religious extrem!sm, homoph0bia, and ab*sive parenting, and unethical practices.}

She spills her guts and drops bomshell after bombshell.

At home I lived with my religious, strict, homoph0bic, nutcase of a widowed remarried mom...After she had lost my dad...she had lost her mind...got consumed by religious extremism...The 5 times I was sent to conversion therapy...All the times she tried to "save me"...All the times she failed to "pray the gay away"...All the times she would lock me up in the closet whenever she caught me dating another girl. Every time she said I was "unsavable" and that "robo god doesn't love me." Part of me...doesn't want to go back home...She calls me demon possessed...and she thinks Uzi is the "spawn of the robo devil"...

She, "Dad", and Lizzy are the only family I have left...Everyone else is dead or missing. My real dad was killed by a disassembly drone... My sister Kelsey disappeared a day before prom and never returned...Doll killed my half sister Penny at prom...Then Uzi killed my brother Braidon at camp...

But here...I feel like I have family...I feel safe...here...I know this is wrong but...I'd rather just stay here.

Because here at least Lizzy actually CARES about me...In my world...she's a total popular, snotty, stuck up, phone obsessed b!tch!

Not to mention my world has HUNDREDS of disassembly drones, most entirely consumed by the desire to kill and don't want redemption. It got so bad we beast drones were created to combat them.

We have an organization known as the Worker Drone Defense Force or WDF for short. It was founded by Kahn and Nori Doorman and was created to protect worker drones from the disassemblers. Over time it grew and spread to 25 other bunkers. He managed ALL of it, which is not an easy job. He was always overwhelmed as stressed. He tries his best to keep up but often struggles to lead all 26 bunkers.

The WDF decided to actually fight back against the Murder Drones but their methods were quite unethical. Turning their "problematic" or "unwanted" workers into combat animals. Their way of doing this was to alter these poor drones while they were wide awake. No magnets were used to relieve the pain.

They would forcefully add disassembler parts to them without even considering their system's compatibility. Most don't survive the compatibility issues.

All of this is happening right under Khan's nose...He has no idea this is even going on in his own organization...

I have no memory of my alterations...

{Emily being religious or at least religiously raised is a common headcanon within her fandom. My writing can get rather deep and dark since I'm not one to shy away from realism. Though it won't get much darker than this.}

[solver-lizzy]

N listened quietly, thoughtfully. Letting her get it all out. From the sounds of it, she's had it pretty rough. He wasn't, unfamiliar, with this kind of story unfortunately. Serving humans and delivering packages, he'd met folk from all walks of life. Including those who were less than kind towards others. Remaining calm and collected despite the bleak words. Trying to think about Khan and Nori in that situation was certainly hard. Causing such harm even if unknowingly. He reached out, rubbing Emmy's back as she got into the latter half of her story. He only spoke once she was done, "well, for what it's worth, I think she's completely wrong. From everything I used to hear about the gods, I don't think any of them would judged you and Uzi to be 'demons'. You already seem like a very kind and lovely drone. If she couldn't see the wonder she brought into the world, that means she was blind." Making a buzzing purring noise as he spoke.

This world had many gods, many of them having duality in what they represent. Beings the humans worshipped, now shattered in stone across the torn up battlefield. He could understand why in all of that she'd become so attatched to their Lizzy. The one that had become popular not through tyranny, but by being unapologetically herself. Even though occasionally that meant being a bit of a bully to those like Uzi. All because they'd been locked up together after events that caused the doors to shut essentially for good. Apologies had long since been shared between the two after the near end of the world. N couldn't help but feel bad for Emmy's mom. She sounds like a horrible person yes. One who was driven down a dark path through grief and religious extremism. It reminded him of Tessa.

The human girl who'd run away from earth just to escape an awful, horrible situation. And who's shop had become the trios favorite for delivery. Despite the hell the girl had been put through, she'd remained kind. "I'm proud of you for coming out the other side of the tunnel. You shouldn't have been pushed into it in the first place, but your being here now tells me that you're a very strong drone. I don't know if I'd be able to do the same honestly. I promise, you're safe here, for however long you want it to be." His words were sincere, carried in a buzzing purring sound. It was yet another story he vowed to carry with him. A tragic, horrible, but deeply personal tale. Stored away in his core full of them.

[the-final-emily]

Well...

My opinion on Uzi isn't what anyone would...actually...expect...

In my world she's deemed as a "freak", feared and borderline hated by everyone. She was avoided like the plauge....

My home life was so strict...I was forced to hide...to mask....to pretend...All I had were my peers....so I did everything I could to appeal to them while also maintaining obedience to my mother's strict rules...

My life was a strict religious prision of acting.

I was never allowed to be myself...

But Uzi...she was different....she stood out...

She was just so defiant, rebellious, brave, and unapologetically herself. No one could stop her...she seemed...fearless...

She's...everything I wish I could be...but...I'm just...a coward...

And I lov-

.....

I look up to her...despite everything.

[solver-lizzy]

N chuckled at that last part. Their worlds were so different, he wouldn't be all that surprised. "Guess I got lucky in this reality. Cause I feel the same way. When the world felt like it was ending, Uzi was standing strong and defiant. She inspired me and others to fight back, even if I'm not exactly built for 'combat' haha." He certainly didn't look it. Being much more soft in design than the average DD. Even compared to V who was much smaller.

"Should've seen Lizzy back then. She was so done she started fighting with an old pipe on the ground, back to back with Thad." Trying to lighten the mood a bit before adding. "I don't think you're a coward. You're caged in a lot of ways." He pointed to her chest, "but I can feel it. There's a strong, brave and kind drone in here. You 'look up' to Uzi for a reason...I don't think you've ever been given the credit you deserve for making it through everything you have. You deserve it though. And I'll be the first, but not the only one, to tell you that. You don't have to mask here, I think I speak for everyone when I say: I want to know Emily Day better." Putting a hand to his chest.

[the-final-emily]

Um do you think they'll be...ok?

Me brining Uzi here seemed to have caused...issues...and I kinda feel bad...

[solver-lizzy]

N rubbed the back of his neck. Tensions were definitely, high. But being the optimist he was could help but chirp, "I think it'll be ok. We just have a few," he moved his hand in a circle motion, "bumps, to get through. But that's not your fault. You were helping us find Lizzy. I don't think any of us were expecting to find reanimated drones. Especially not of the campers, and their doubles from other realities. It's, a lot. But nothing the drones of wolf squad can't handle!" Patting her back before standing. "Why don't we go check on Lizzy and the others? Or, you can stay here if you're not ready. I completely understand." Pointing down the stairs where the others had gone.

[the-final-emily]

W-wolf squad?

[solver-lizzy]

N chuckled, "oh, have you not heard that one? It's kind of a tribe name. Originally that was the name of Mr. Doorman's rescue squad. Because they had wolf mounts." Leaning against the wooden railing. "With everyone basically being a family after all was said and done, we just started calling ourselves 'wolf squad'. I mean, V was unofficially adopted by mr and mrs doorman, I'm with Uzi, Lizzy's with V, Thad and Lizzy are found family. So we're 'wolf squad' haha." He then realized, "Thad! I have to call Thad and tell him we found Lizzy. He's with Mr and Mrs Doorman in another search group." Fishing a phone out of his tail.

[the-final-emily]

Oh...well...that's kinda odd...

I mean...I...turn INTO a similar animal...The idea of being ridden is...weird...I hate how I can relate to those...mounts...because I'm a fox...

The thought anything remotely similar to me being ridden is kinda off-putting...

Though I'm defiantly too small small anyway...

[solver-lizzy]

N nodded "I can see why you'd think that. That's the reason we thought you liked Uzi so much in that form haha. Because she's internally a rescue drone, like Lizzy. But the mounts weren't just 'mounts'. They were squad members. The way Mr. Doorman talks about Admin made him feel like another drone. I didn't know he wasn't until he said 'he was my wolf, ny partner in crim." Doing an attempt to mimic the old man's voice, poorly. "I mean, technically, im a 'mount' too." Turning just enough to show off the handles on his back. "I wasn't sure how to feel about it at first when I woke up. But I warmed up to it thanks to my old builder. I get to carry Uzi when she doesn't feel like flying, sometimes one of our wingless friends. It's like another way or hanging out. Atleast, that's how I look at it." Chuckling and turning himself back.

[the-final-emily]

Man I cannot stress enough how different it is here....

In my world ALL animal drones are made either for war, murder, or destruction.

And 90% of those animal drones are beast drones...victims...and no two beast drones are the same either. They can be ANY animal including arthropods and sea creatures...

Her memory as a beast drone slowly trickles in.

There's this one named Scorpio...They're a scorpion. Their real name is Sam. They're the chill one. And one of the few to actually have nanite acid in their tail though it's chemical make up was altered where only beast drone saliva can destroy it...

We have a rat named Mattie. She's a total nerd like me and freaking LOVES her assigned animal. Apparently she actually does love rats.

Then we have a sabortooth named Leo. He's protectice and strong...

Then there's the Kangaroo named Conner...He's just a sweetheart.

We have a monkey named Mallow. He's...energetic and overly silly.

And then there's... Ursa...our leader...The grizzly bear... He...takes our jobs seriously to a tee...He has no heart for disassmeblers...and will kill them on sight. He also destroys anyone infected with the Triangular Plauge.

{LOL Emily knows two Sam's. The magnet addict and the scorpion. Also I have to many male beast drones. Need to think up some more female ones.}

[solver-lizzy]

N took out a journal as she spoke. Writing down the names and animals associated as well as the little notes. It was a habit he'd formed long ago when there were many more DDs to keep track of. The thing itself looked beat up, like it'd been jostled around in his tail for a long time. He marked fown the info with a smile before putting the journal away. "They sound like wonderful friends haha. If I ever get the chance, I'd like to meet them. If, they'd have me anyways." Placing his two bottom arms in their spot behind his back. "Afterall, active or not, I'm still a DD. I can understand that."

(I was tempted to make a breaker Sam only because I thought it would be hilarious if the way to stun him long enough to be connectored was to magnet him into a state of being docile. Because of how much of a 'stoner' he is LOL)

[the-final-emily]

Most are...except for Ursa...

[solver-lizzy]

N nodded, "then if I ever can, I'd love to get to know them." Smiling and then looking over the railing where the others were. Down below, Uzi and V were looking over Lizzy. Emily sat awkwardly across the table on the other couch. It didn't look like the tension was getting any lighter. With Emily looking ready to jump out of her skin, gripping her skirt tightly. Glancing up at Uzi every once in awhile. N readjusted his hat and said, "I think I need to go talk with miss Alto, she looks ready to jump out of her capsule." Readjusting his coat next like he was preparing for a job interview.

[the-final-emily]

I'll just...stay up here...

[solver-lizzy]

N looked to Emmy and nodded, looking down to her book. He reached into his tail, "say, I've got a few fun books on me." Pulling them out one by one as he named them, "may bird, Gregor the overlander, oh! This one's fun, it's about a man who moves in with a family who's got a deep connection to dragons. 'Thr fire within'. And this one-oh, it's a little boring haha." Holding up a book in his last hand titles, 'the dazzling dance of drone types'. With quite a few printed across the cover. Some resembling the types she'd already seen, orchestra, carnival and rescue, but without the mutations that made them more animalistic.

[the-final-emily]

I'm um more of a Sci-fi girl....Besides there's a whole library up here.

I'll be fine. Just please check on my counterpart.

[solver-lizzy]

N put the books back, nodding. "Well if you need anything, I'll be around." Tipping his hat to her before going downstairs to try and help elevate some of the rising tensions. It was a somewhat familiar scene to him. This left Emmy upstairs with the Rebecca's who'd yet to make an appearance outside the room.

[the-final-emily]

Emily simply take a book from one of the shelves and nervously reads. Not ready to deal with the other half of the tension. Her rejection of Becc'as confession long ago still fresh on her mind.

[solver-lizzy]

Things wound down slowly. N speaking with Emily seemed to help, although the conversation itself was out of ear shot. It was a talk he'd given before, though modified for Emily's unique situation. Her form was new but the infection, not so much really. Though only a few remembered the time before it's arrival.

Uzi was leaned up against the couch Lizzy laid on, crossing her arms and looking down at the pink drone. She could only imagine what the past few days had been like, let alone the two weeks leading up to it while she was missing. It kind of pissed her off that Lizzy ran off like that. Made her wanna give Lizzy atleast one good jab for not trusting them enough. For now, she was just glad that the situation seemed stable enough, for now. Her eyes moved back up the stairs towards Emmy, arms still crossed. She was admittedly curious about how this all happened. Though she was sure she'd have answers when Lizzy woke up, eventually.

[the-final-emily]

Meanwhile Emmy is trying her best to keep herself preoccupied with her book trying to forget her woes.

{The timing of your return couldn't be more perfect. I desperately need something to keep my mind off of the devastation I feel over how much Roblox sucks as a whole and how their new chat segregation coming tomorrow will destroy my favorite game Murder Drones Reassembled. The dread and stress I feel is immeasurable.}

[solver-lizzy]

When Lizzy finally woke up, it wasn't pleasant. The disorienting function fog was even worse this time. Trying to push herself up and failing. She felt a hand on her back. There was a voice, it felt distant at first. Her microphone not quite picking up the words. It came through when her optics finally focused on the image. V was crouched in front of the couch, hand on Lizzy's back. The pink drone sat up, hand to her head. It felt like her body was re calibrating. Too much time outside her body maybe? Her limbs felt abnormally heavy, causing her to slump. V caught her by the shoulders and sat down on the couch next to her.

Uzi pushed herself into a standing position. "What have you been doing out here!?" Seeing the condition on full display. Lizzy attempted to look up at Uzi, "it is a decently long story." Even her voice had to recalibrate, sounding closer to a factory fresh drone when she spoke. Uzi sighed, sitting down opposite of V. Pulling off her bag and placing it on the ground. She unzipped it, taking out a heavy duty laptop and three connective wires. "I'm gonna help you out." First connecting the wires to her laptop and then walking over to Lizzy. Before the wires were plugged in, Emily stood up.

"W-wait hang on, what are you doing?" Holding up her hands. Uzi turned to Emily and said, "I'm just gonna help her recalibrate. I do this all the time for type changes." Holding up the wires. "Look, I can even explain what I'm doing while I do it. The quicker the better." Plugging the wires in somewhere behind Lizzy's coat collar. Emily hesitantly walked over and stood next to where Uzi sat. Booting up her laptop after a 'crack' of her knuckles.

(Eeee. I don't really play roblox but I've definitely heard about it. I'm glad I returned in time then. It sucks so much losing a good game.)

[the-final-emily]

She continues to read not ready to face Becca knowing there's already enough drama downstairs and doesn't want to cause more upstairs.

[solver-lizzy]

(Tfw you lose your response, twice)

Uzi spoke like a doctor. Directing Lizzy to perform simple actions to test calibration. It went pretty quickly, Lizzy regaining full control quickly enough. Once finished, Uzi unplugged the wires on both ends. Lizzy rubbed the back of her neck. V pat her back and took her hand away, "feeling better now?" Resting her arms on her legs. The pink drone nodded and looked to Uzi, "thanks, I owe you one-" she let out an 'OW' rubbing her arm where she'd been jabbed.

Uzi crossed her arms, "I'd feel too bad doing that while you're half functioning. Seriously, into a blizzard!?" Lizzy laughed, sitting up straight. "Not my best move, yeah." Uzi sighed, shaking her head and turning her attention to Emily. The breaker flinched upon making eye contact. Uzi held out her arms, "look, I'm not gonna eat you, or Lizzy, or anyone else. You can chill." Emily tapped her fingers together, tail lashing back and forth. She tried to avoid looking at the two of them.

In her vision, Uzi, N and V were consumed by harsh yellow light. Twisting and moving like it was wound up to attack. The only one not consumed by this harsh yellow overlay was Lizzy. "I-I uh, just can't seem, to get calm." Looking down to the ground. Lizzy got up, walking over to Emily. The pink drone wrapped an arm around the blue one's shoulders. Inherently she knew what was happening with the breakers to some degree. It was mostly a mood thing, being able to feel the vibes coming off them. "It's ok, there's no danger here I promise. You can put those alarms to rest." Bringing an arm down and softening down the fins which stood in anxiety.

It was slow, but the harsh yellow light calmed into a manageable hum. Not gone, but soothed by the admin. Enough for her to start gasping, like she'd come up from under water. Her fins folding down into a neutral state for the first time since she'd emerged from the room. Uzi was surprised by this reaction, sitting up straighter. "Is it like, an instinct response?" Emily rubbed her head, "I'm, uh, not sure. It just felt, overwhelming."

[the-final-emily]

Hey, I know you're avoiding me Emmy.

N-No I'm not...

Well you shouldn't, I have information you need to know abou- BOOOM! CRACK!

IT'S TOO LATE!! THEY'RE HERE EMMY RUN!!!

[solver-lizzy]

Rebecca's eyes opened, the spins of her back standing on end. She'd decided to close her eyes after waking up with a splitting headache. But rhe crashes brought her to full attention. The oil forming the for beastial appearance as she slithered out the room to find the others. Seeing that they had new members. Great, more people. More, was that Uzi? Whatever, she was done with the surprises.

Every system inside her flaring for a fight. The complete opposite of Emily's instinctual reaction. Which had flared back up with the sounds. V stood, her arm opening into a gun. Uzi looked up and said, "Careful with that. Don't nanite anyone we care about." V nodded, "Yeah yeah I know. It's gonna be hard with everyone grouped up though." Walking towards the blasted open entrance and deploying her wings. Trying to make herself appear larger like a territorial bird.

[the-final-emily]

There's a sudden crash of the door falling and the beating of wings.

They land...3 more disassembly drones stand before Emily.

[solver-lizzy]

Seeing them all, she would have expected to feel more, anything really. Sorrow, pain, nostalgia atleast. But no, all Rebecca saw were harsh yellow lights. Thorny and jutting towards her, threatening a fight. The feeling was much more intense then before with just Becca. V saw the oily snake rush past her. "HEY! DON'T JUST RUSH IN!" Her words fell on deaf ears. The girl's form had changed significantly. Enlongating and twisting under the influence of the odd virus. The body protrustuons returning, encasing the form and making it stronger.

The DDs would feel it first, the threat. The wordless taunting emanating from the beasts presence. A battle for territory, 'come and try, I dare you'. She resembled the old depictions of Medusa in some ways. The ancient monster known as the gorgon. Even V felt her metallic feathers prickle, preparing her for a fight.

[the-final-emily]

Emily doesn't think to do anything but RUN. Forced back into her beast from she once again bolt out the door. The disassemblers who were formerly her friends give chase.

Through the baron snowy fields Emily could only think to do one thing...RUN.

Eventually her luck runs out and she's caught until...

The others weren't far behind. Following in order to try and keep the girl safe. All at once the counter attack was started. Rebecca running up beside and moving past the wolf's quick movement. With good enough reaction time, the large lizard drone could even be used as a temporary platform. Grabbing the DD Daren to slam him into the ground and halting his pursuit. Her aggression was rising with the activity.

Lizzy could only watch watched in temporary stunned awe at the battle taking place. In all of it, she's felt so. No, she had to stop thinking like that. But it was true right? What was she going to do in a situation like this? Her legs shook, could she even keep up with them? "L..i..LIZZY!" Lizzy was snapped out of it by Doll's voice. "Give me the wheel! You're in no condition for this!" Serious red eyes looking at her. Lizzy hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

[Admin switched]

Lizzy's eye hue switched, pink overlaying the red now as the tail opened up in full bloom. Glowing pink eyes turning back to the scene. "Time to test your theory," Doll started, moving down into an all fours position. Wings shot out of her back, matching those she had in the code based reality. Spines lining them like feathers. "Don't hurt anyone we care about." Doll nodded and said, "got it, I won't hurt anyone YOU care about." Wings flapping as she joined the fray. Mostly trying to find a way to put an end to this fight before something drastic happened. Lizzy could only watch, now in the passengers seat. Eyes scanning the scene before her. The doubles registering in her system briefly confused her. Were there always-no, they've been here. The doubles have been here since, since Emmy arrived. It was getting harder to hold onto those facts, but she didn't quite understand why though. Maybe it was the exhaustion. So much was happening afterall.

[the-final-emily]

The wolf quickly grabs the fennec in her jaws and throws her onto her back as she zips past the other two pursuers. The full land speed capability of beast drones on display as she weaves through rocky snow covered walls and boulders. Their land speed surpasses the fastest animal known to man.

The disassemblers are persistent, despite their lesser speed they use short cuts to catch up and slam the "dire wolf" to the ground the fennec falling off her back.

It's then the color of this beast is finally noticed as she struggles once more to stand. A bright purple glow radiates from every crease and joint. Her exterior metal plated armor a very deep dark grey, nearly black. Even her body language is hauntingly familiar. You have a deep suspicion you know exactly who this is.

As she stands the disassemblers close in for another attack only to be pounced by Leo, a sabertoothed panther drone; pushing them away.

[the-final-emily]

Where here? Where are we? Blue eyes dancing around, scanning the scenery as it bounded forward. Dark claws kicking up snow as it did, black feathering covering most of it's body with the exception of head, hands and bird like feet, the skin an ashy grey. Is drones here? Need to find them.

It seemed panicked, unsure even, practically throwing it's head around as tried to ease it's racing heart and heaving lungs. Soon started making strange loud hisses and raspy grunts, hoping someone would hear it.

@md-ouroboros

The leviathan solver had yet to notice, she has just woken up from her freezing condition. The oil of her own burning brother covering her hands and mouth.

[md-ouroboros]

The creature contained to call out, weaving through the trees before it noticed something. Causing it go quiet as it tried to figure it what it was. Fire? It pondered, soon finding itself walking over to — from it's perspective — the drone by the the fire.

It froze when it saw what was going on, a clawed grey skinned hand hovering above the ground as it's pupils quickly narrowed. This maybe bad idea.

But may be only choice. It then firmly stomped it's hand into the snow, letting out a low repeating vulture like grunts. Six deep lapis eyes staring at the leviathan.

[the-final-emily]

The solver girl doesn't seem to take notice...Now too consumed by the panic of what she had just done.

{I have returned from a break from rping, sorry this reply took so much time}

[solver-lizzy]

Exposition:

Time: Eight months after waking from death.

After waking up from the impossible, Emily had walked aimlessly looking for the bunker once more. It took her two months to finally find home again. By the time he had arrived, everything had changed. Everyone who had thought she had been long dead now fear her for surviving the impossible.

She had lost everything and the only one who understood her was the very same one who had killed her...Uzi. So with no other choice she went to her. It wasn't long before Uzi had found out Emily had been accidently infected with a defective variant of the Solver and pretty much had NO control over it. She spent months training her to be able to properly use it. Training was rather difficult since Emily's Solver differed so drastically from the original.

Today was the day she was supposed to learn how to use the NULL for the very first time. However...A NULL wasn't what was created...It was...something small...bright...glowing...almost white in color...It seemed similar to a NULL but it was obviously not the same. It's text read as "void". It was powerful and had the same pull...in fact it was... too strong. She felt herself be pulled in by her own creation her consciousness fading in and out as she travels though what appears to be a wormhole?

.....

The loud crack of what sounds like thunder shakes the sky as the other end of Emily's void is created. She is violently thrown out of her void into the dimension/planet of Bismuth-12, crashing and rolling over several times from the sheer force. She's half conscious and disoriented for the first few seconds.

When she finally comes to she panics having realized her void is closing, she scrambles to reach it in time only for her to be just barely too late.

NO NO NO NO!!

She has no idea how she originally created that void and now she's STRANDED alone in a dimension/planet she doesn't know with no way back home.

{Note: I was originally gonna have her crash at the campsite but since the starter location is nowhere near there I will let you decide where she is. If it had been camp it may have taken a long time for her to be discovered and may have required spoilers to start the story which I didn't want to do. All that's known so far is Solver Emily crashed into the Bismuth-12 dimeson/universe and Lizzy/Doll did hear that loud boom. Also sorry the intro was so long.}

@the-final-emily

[You're so fine. Also it isn't quite Bismuth-12, but I can treat it as the same universe to make this work. As I imagine the universes this Lizzy and Emily are from are very different. I can so work with this ^^/]

Lizzy was started awake by the crash. Having found shelter in a broken down storage unit on a ratty old couch. The sound made her nervous, wondering what could be around. The panicked voice felt, disturbingly, familiar. She slowly crawled off the couch. Cautiously poking her head out of the storage unit, Doll's eyes blinking open and looking out past her shoulder. She quickly moved back behind the wall, pressing her back against it as her core rattled in her chest. There was no way, there was NO WAY this was happening. Doll kept her eyes on the scene, watching Emily panic at the loss of the portal. Lizzy reset her visual monitors and then looked back out. She was there, it was her. Emily, her old friend.

The guilt came flooding back. Surely, she was going insane right? Emily, Emily was dead. She watched Uzi tear her apart. She looked at Doll with an 'are you seeing what I'm seeing?' Expression. Doll rolled her eyes and nodded, "You're not going insane unless our shared body means shared hallucinations." That wasn't very comforting. Lizzy tenderly stepped out from the broken storage unit door. She took a few cautious steps towards the panicking drone. "E-Emily?" Lizzy's voice was shaking something furious. Her dual colored gaze a strange sight. As well as her new outfit. Clearly it has been a little bit since she graduated in this world. The scared, guilt ridden look said everything. Emily was dead and has STAYED dead.

[solver-lizzy]

Uzi held up her hands, "it's ok, no need to panic." She reached back into her bag, taking out a thermas. It was filled with oil, pouring it out into the cap and placing it on the ground. Hoping to coax the fox over to both calm her and hopefully gain her trust. Trying to remember if there was a 'fox squad' or something similar. Only remembering wolf, bear and deer. She was crouched onto one knee next to the oil offering, holding out a hand towards Emily. V and N stood back, letting Uzi work.

[the-final-emily]

Recognizing that voice, Emily runs up to Uzi nearly knocking her over.

She nuzzles into her desperate for comfort. She cares little whether this is her Uzi or not.

[solver-lizzy]

Uzi was indeed knocked over, having not expected the head long rush. Now sitting down while the fox nuzzled into her. She wrapped her arms around Emmy gently, patting her head. N walked over saying, "aaaaw she likes you. Maybe it's cause you're a rescue drone in there." Crouching next to the pair. Uzi chuckled, "probably," Patting the fox's head playfully, "there ya go, see? Not scary at all." She joked. V said, "Well I'm gonna keep looking around for Lizzy." Walking away as her wings deployed. Uzi looked over to her and said, "if you find anything let us know ok?" Turning back to the fox and saying, "once we figure out what to do with you anyways." Scratching her head. She didn't expect to suddenly have a four legged plus one, but Emmy was obviously scared and, she felt kinda of bad for her. If she'd suddenly woken up with no rescue drones around, it's no wonder she'd panic.

[the-final-emily]

She seems to have calmed down resting in the arms of Uzi .

For beast drones the armor automatically engages as a defensive mechanism when they feel panic or detect a threat. But once the drone in question has calmed down they regain control of their animal armor and can retract it.

Emmy is currently trying to figure out how.

[solver-lizzy]

Uzi was finally able to stand, dusting snow off herself. N held out a hand to Emmy, somewhat resembling a DD version of the carnival drones. "Hi! Oh biscuits you're so cute!" His large trailor of a tail moved back and forth dangerously for anyone behind him. Uzi sighed, putting her hands on her hips. "Guess we could go to stables and see if any of the others woke up. Wouldn't want a zoo of sentinels roaming in a panic." Pointing back to the building Lizzy had pointed out before. The one supposedly full of inactive sentinels. N nodded, "are there any more dogs?" He asked this excitedly. Uzi smiled at her boyfriend's excited demeanor. "I think this one's a fox, but there are wolves in there according to my dad." N immediately got even more excited, the joy radiating off the bug in happy wing buzzing.

[the-final-emily]

She seems confused by that. She's no sentinel.

The fox's face is laced with confusion the kind of physical expressiveness not found in sentinels. She seems almost....sapient...

[solver-lizzy]

For now, Uzi and N didn't quite pick up on that. The only sentinel they really knew was Sparky, and he had a whole lot of personality packed into that raptor body. Uzi smiled at Emmy, reaching out a hand to her side and gesturing for her to come over, "wanna come with us? We've got a friend to find and we could use the help." Reaching into her pocket and pulling out a photo. Holding it uo to the fox in hopes that she had some kind of facial recognition software.

The picture was one she'd taken of Lizzy. They were in a large stone hall with Lizzy looking up at old chipping wall art of a skull surrounded by multicolored deisgns of roses and patterns. Likely one of the 'tags' Lizzy had mentioned before. "We're looking for this drone, it's pretty important to us that she comes home safe. Can you help us?" She spoke this with a toothy grin. One familiar on her face, though much, much more relaxed.

[the-final-emily]

She simply let's out a very confident yip and gestures to follow. She knows EXACTLY where Lizzy is.

[solver-lizzy]

Uzi was surprised by this reaction, standing straight and saying, "haha yeah! Lead the way little man." Not knowing that Emmy was A, a girl, and B, a drone. Putting the photo back into her pocket. Putting a hand to the side of her head and saying, "V, we've got her! Follow us from above!" Ready to follow Emmy back to the lodge.

----

In the building itself, the DD's restraints had been removed. Lizzy was already out of the room, calling out for Emmy in a worried tone while Emily remained by the DD's side. Lizzy had checked the other rooms, the main room. There was nowhere left to check for the missing drone and she was getting worried. What if something happened while they were out? What if she went back without Becca? The thoughts stirred in her mind, refusing to let go until she located the girl.

That's when a soft pinging echoed in her mind. Drawing her attention out into the snow.

[EMMY]

A blue text box bouncing above, was that a fox? "No way," she muttered as the fox bounded into view. And then her friends appeared soon after, "...no way." She saw V "oh no." Lizzy sprinted back up the stairs before she could be seen, quickly shutting the door to one of the empty rooms. Doll appeared over her shoulder, "what's with the oil flow increase?" Looking to Lizzy in her now panicked state. Lizzy said, "I'm, i'm not ready. They're here and I'm, I'm not ready." Doll gave her a 'really?' Look. "You're ready to fist fight me and satan but not talk to the loser squad?" Lizzy put her back against the door, "this is different Doll, I, I already attacked them. I almost, killed N." Doll sighed, "correction, I, almost killed N. You had nothing to do with that except waking me up. So get out there and face them head on." She growled, though it wasn't the same as before. This was Doll trying to help, even though she wasn't the most comforting. It did help put Lizzy at ease, still worried about what her friends would say.

[the-final-emily]

She scratches at the door realizing...SHE DOESN'T REMEMBER HOW TO OPEN IT.

She realizes she's just a mere animal...No one would even recognize her. There's no way a beast like her would ever be allowed in...She doesn't know about the internal conflict within the group. All she knows is how deeply she associates UZI with comfort and safety. All she wants is all her comforts in one place. She doesn't even register that V and N are with her. Nor does she register that this isn't HER Uzi...She's too fueled by instinct to acknowledge that.

Uzi and this world's Lizzy are her biggest comforts and in a time of crisis such as literally turning into a wild beast, she needs that comfort more than ever.

[solver-lizzy]

Lizzy heard the scratching and whining associated with a desperate plea to come inside. "Sounds like your 'kid' is back." Lizzy shot a half hearted glare at Doll, "don't call her that. She's the same age as us." Stiffening when she heard Uzi call out, "Lizzy?" Coming up to the door behind the fox. Lizzy took a deep breath, slapping her the sides of her face before opening the door with some hesitation.

[the-final-emily]

She stands there eagerly.

[solver-lizzy]

Lizzy opened the door fully, first looking down at the fox. "When did this happen?" Chuckling, it was a genuine laugh at the absurdity of this whole situation, "You were a beast drone too? So much for 'rumors' haha." bending over just a bit to greet her with a little bit of a clearer head. Next standing up straight and turning to Uzi. The purple haired drone had a very confused look on her face. Lizzy rubbed her visor, "I know, I know, I probably feel a lot worse then I look. A lot has been happening, I've had, no time to process it all." Waving a hand in front of her. "I, haven't had any time to think about how to apologize to you for. For, everything. I'm, jeez, im really tired." Trying to joke.

V had her arms crossed, tapping her tank with her finger. Finally speaking up, "you know what could have helped?" She uncrossed her arms, walking towards Lizzy. She looked angry, but also relieved "Trusting us enough not to run into a BLIZZARD wearing nothing but a dress after awakening a solver." Puting both her hands at Lizzy. "Maybe we could have HELPED with whatever is, happening." Pointing her hands at Emmy next. V sighed, moving in and wrapping her arms around Lizzy. The hug was tight, the smaller drone bringing her arms up to meet it. "I thought I lost you, we all did when we couldn't find you." She was still trying to sound angry.

Lizzy could tell she'd been scared. "I was planning to come back, eventually. I promise I was. But a lot started happening." Looking at Emmy briefly. "All at once." Resting her forehead against V's chest. This wasn't the same kind of fit of emotion her last two encounters had been. "You're right though, it would have been really, really nice to have you all around for some of it." A choked laugh escaping her throat. She hugged V tighter. The DDs warmth felt so familiar, so comforting. Something she hasn't felt in awhile since this all started.

Lizzy didn't realize till then just how much she'd been going. Unable to relax for what felt like more than five minutes since entering the camp. V stepped forward, scooping up Lizzy to the surprise of the others. V turned to Uzi and N, chirping, "I think we can wait on interrogations." Looking down at Lizzy. The drone had fallen asleep standing up. The moment of relaxation was enough to knock her right out. Her visor showing a low battery signal.

[the-final-emily]

FINALLY the beastly armor retracts.

Oh thank robo god! That was terrifiying! I have NO IDEA I was one of them!! They said it was a myth! T-that the Lycanthropes weren't real...

I...I don't understand how I became one of them...I remember nothing...

[solver-lizzy]

Upon changing back, she'd had three sets of eyes on her. Uzi especially had not been expecting the sudden change back. Though after a moment N spoke, moving forward. "Oooh I recognize you!" His tail opening up as his two bottom arms searched around inside. "You're one of the campers." Pulling out a clipboard from fhe collection of random knick knacks. He ran a finger down the list. "Emily Alto, the orchestra drone. Marked down, as, devoured. Oooh biscuits." Putting on of his top hands on his head.

Uzi looked at N, slowly looking back at Emily going, "ooooh sh-" half under her breath. Putting her hands together as she spoke. "I, am so sorry about the, uh, 'eating you' thing. I was not, in my right mind. Buut im, glad you're alive." Giving Emily two awkward thumbs up and a nervous grin. Obviously having talked to Lizzy about the fact that she'd been the one to eat her friends.

[the-final-emily]

I'm...uh...uhh....infected...The Uzi from my world made a gaint oopsie...Upon catching me she hacked into me from the inside out USING the solver....It took a perfectly ripe opportunity and claimed my as a new host...incorrectly...My solver is...defective... also im the only one she DIDNT eat....After decapitating me she simply threw me away.

{It's canon in mainline that Uzi never ate her.}

[solver-lizzy]

Uzi made a sound like sucking in breath through her teeth. "That, sounds worse, actually." V chimed in, "wait wait wait, pause, did you say another reality?" As if to answer her question, Emily poked her head out from the room holding her and the Rebecca's. "Uh, is, everything ok out here?" She asked hesitantly before her eyes landed on the group. Flinching upon seeing Uzi, flashes of memories returning like a headache. Her frightened, cautious expression matched the raised fins on her back.

Not just Uzi, V and N. V had shot someone just looking at her wrong. Though upon seeing Lizzy in her arms, the worry took over. Coming over and speaking shakily, "I knew I should've told her to stay out. I-Is she ok?" Hesitant to get any closer to the trio. The wild code inside her was telling her to run. V looked down at Lizzy, sighing at the absurdity of the situation they were in. "Yeah, she's just tired. I don't think I blame her." Looking at the two Emilys now in front of her.

N suddenly went, "oh, oooh" looking at one then the other, the clipboard subtly following his movements. "YOU'RE Emily Alto." Pointing to Emily. Uzi sighed, "ok, you, are the one I'm apologizing to, right?" Emily looked visibly uncomfortable, stepping back, "uh, yeah, I think. You're the Uzi from this reality, r-right?" Uzi scratched her head, "as far as i'm aware?" Shrugging. Emily nodded, "um, apology, accepted..." for the sake of ensuring Lizzy's safety, she didn't want to push it. Though it was very clear her and Emmy did NOT share the same feelings about Uzi.

Emily walked just a bit closer to V, holding out her arms. Mumbling, "I, I can take her if you want." Though V replied, "just show me where I can put her. Then we can all talk about what the hell is happening here," With a nod and some hesitancy, Emily lead V to where Lizzy had been sleeping prior. Down the stairs and leaving the other three.

[the-final-emily]

Um...I'm just gonna go quietly um...read in a corner....The atmosphere is to thick you can cut it with a knife...

She awkwardly goes to a quiet corner and randomly chooses a book to read.

She quickly realizes it's biblical...and immediately looks uncomfortable...

[solver-lizzy]

Noticing her discomfort, N walked over. Sitting near but not next to her. Unlike Rebecca he seemed to always have his bottom arms folded behind his back. Like he was keeping them out of the way. Odd handles present on all forearms and his back, two on his tail as well. His ever inclusive instincts kicking in. "Hiya, so you're from another reality huh? That sounds so cool." Chuckling with his bright smile. "And your fox form is really cute too. Oh uh, is that, rude, to say?" Pointing at himself with the sudden realization.

[the-final-emily]

Oh it's not...To be honest it's still new to me.

[solver-lizzy]

N tilted his head, "oh yeah?" Still with that smile on his face. "You, wanna talk about it? I understand if you don't, but I promise I'm a good listener." Putting his hand to his chest. He had a maturity and professionalism that felt a little odd for N's usual nature. But still carried the kind aura.

[the-final-emily]

I mean...if I start talking...I won't shut up...and it may end up leading to....over sharing.

[solver-lizzy]

N chuckled, "that's ok, maybe once it's all out, you'll feel better." Giving her a reassuring smile. "I won't tell a soul if you don't want me to either." Getting more comfy in his seat. His tail slid open and he rummaged around inside. "I'll even give you this." He pulled out a journal. The kind that was bound in light leather. Attached to it was a pen. Holding it out to her and chirping, "writing can also help you put your thoughts together. I used to do it all the time when I still made deliveries."

[the-final-emily]

Well...you're in for hell...Because what bothers me most is my MOTHER...and our own organization...

{Trigger Warning: Religious topics, religious extrem!sm, homoph0bia, and ab*sive parenting, and unethical practices.}

She spills her guts and drops bomshell after bombshell.

At home I lived with my religious, strict, homoph0bic, nutcase of a widowed remarried mom...After she had lost my dad...she had lost her mind...got consumed by religious extremism...The 5 times I was sent to conversion therapy...All the times she tried to "save me"...All the times she failed to "pray the gay away"...All the times she would lock me up in the closet whenever she caught me dating another girl. Every time she said I was "unsavable" and that "robo god doesn't love me." Part of me...doesn't want to go back home...She calls me demon possessed...and she thinks Uzi is the "spawn of the robo devil"...

She, "Dad", and Lizzy are the only family I have left...Everyone else is dead or missing. My real dad was killed by a disassembly drone... My sister Kelsey disappeared a day before prom and never returned...Doll killed my half sister Penny at prom...Then Uzi killed my brother Braidon at camp...

But here...I feel like I have family...I feel safe...here...I know this is wrong but...I'd rather just stay here.

Because here at least Lizzy actually CARES about me...In my world...she's a total popular, snotty, stuck up, phone obsessed b!tch!

Not to mention my world has HUNDREDS of disassembly drones, most entirely consumed by the desire to kill and don't want redemption. It got so bad we beast drones were created to combat them.

We have an organization known as the Worker Drone Defense Force or WDF for short. It was founded by Kahn and Nori Doorman and was created to protect worker drones from the disassemblers. Over time it grew and spread to 25 other bunkers. He managed ALL of it, which is not an easy job. He was always overwhelmed as stressed. He tries his best to keep up but often struggles to lead all 26 bunkers.

The WDF decided to actually fight back against the Murder Drones but their methods were quite unethical. Turning their "problematic" or "unwanted" workers into combat animals. Their way of doing this was to alter these poor drones while they were wide awake. No magnets were used to relieve the pain.

They would forcefully add disassembler parts to them without even considering their system's compatibility. Most don't survive the compatibility issues.

All of this is happening right under Khan's nose...He has no idea this is even going on in his own organization...

I have no memory of my alterations...

{Emily being religious or at least religiously raised is a common headcanon within her fandom. My writing can get rather deep and dark since I'm not one to shy away from realism. Though it won't get much darker than this.}

[solver-lizzy]

N listened quietly, thoughtfully. Letting her get it all out. From the sounds of it, she's had it pretty rough. He wasn't, unfamiliar, with this kind of story unfortunately. Serving humans and delivering packages, he'd met folk from all walks of life. Including those who were less than kind towards others. Remaining calm and collected despite the bleak words. Trying to think about Khan and Nori in that situation was certainly hard. Causing such harm even if unknowingly. He reached out, rubbing Emmy's back as she got into the latter half of her story. He only spoke once she was done, "well, for what it's worth, I think she's completely wrong. From everything I used to hear about the gods, I don't think any of them would judged you and Uzi to be 'demons'. You already seem like a very kind and lovely drone. If she couldn't see the wonder she brought into the world, that means she was blind." Making a buzzing purring noise as he spoke.

This world had many gods, many of them having duality in what they represent. Beings the humans worshipped, now shattered in stone across the torn up battlefield. He could understand why in all of that she'd become so attatched to their Lizzy. The one that had become popular not through tyranny, but by being unapologetically herself. Even though occasionally that meant being a bit of a bully to those like Uzi. All because they'd been locked up together after events that caused the doors to shut essentially for good. Apologies had long since been shared between the two after the near end of the world. N couldn't help but feel bad for Emmy's mom. She sounds like a horrible person yes. One who was driven down a dark path through grief and religious extremism. It reminded him of Tessa.

The human girl who'd run away from earth just to escape an awful, horrible situation. And who's shop had become the trios favorite for delivery. Despite the hell the girl had been put through, she'd remained kind. "I'm proud of you for coming out the other side of the tunnel. You shouldn't have been pushed into it in the first place, but your being here now tells me that you're a very strong drone. I don't know if I'd be able to do the same honestly. I promise, you're safe here, for however long you want it to be." His words were sincere, carried in a buzzing purring sound. It was yet another story he vowed to carry with him. A tragic, horrible, but deeply personal tale. Stored away in his core full of them.

[the-final-emily]

Well...

My opinion on Uzi isn't what anyone would...actually...expect...

In my world she's deemed as a "freak", feared and borderline hated by everyone. She was avoided like the plauge....

My home life was so strict...I was forced to hide...to mask....to pretend...All I had were my peers....so I did everything I could to appeal to them while also maintaining obedience to my mother's strict rules...

My life was a strict religious prision of acting.

I was never allowed to be myself...

But Uzi...she was different....she stood out...

She was just so defiant, rebellious, brave, and unapologetically herself. No one could stop her...she seemed...fearless...

She's...everything I wish I could be...but...I'm just...a coward...

And I lov-

.....

I look up to her...despite everything.

[solver-lizzy]

N chuckled at that last part. Their worlds were so different, he wouldn't be all that surprised. "Guess I got lucky in this reality. Cause I feel the same way. When the world felt like it was ending, Uzi was standing strong and defiant. She inspired me and others to fight back, even if I'm not exactly built for 'combat' haha." He certainly didn't look it. Being much more soft in design than the average DD. Even compared to V who was much smaller.

"Should've seen Lizzy back then. She was so done she started fighting with an old pipe on the ground, back to back with Thad." Trying to lighten the mood a bit before adding. "I don't think you're a coward. You're caged in a lot of ways." He pointed to her chest, "but I can feel it. There's a strong, brave and kind drone in here. You 'look up' to Uzi for a reason...I don't think you've ever been given the credit you deserve for making it through everything you have. You deserve it though. And I'll be the first, but not the only one, to tell you that. You don't have to mask here, I think I speak for everyone when I say: I want to know Emily Day better." Putting a hand to his chest.

[the-final-emily]

Um do you think they'll be...ok?

Me brining Uzi here seemed to have caused...issues...and I kinda feel bad...

[solver-lizzy]

N rubbed the back of his neck. Tensions were definitely, high. But being the optimist he was could help but chirp, "I think it'll be ok. We just have a few," he moved his hand in a circle motion, "bumps, to get through. But that's not your fault. You were helping us find Lizzy. I don't think any of us were expecting to find reanimated drones. Especially not of the campers, and their doubles from other realities. It's, a lot. But nothing the drones of wolf squad can't handle!" Patting her back before standing. "Why don't we go check on Lizzy and the others? Or, you can stay here if you're not ready. I completely understand." Pointing down the stairs where the others had gone.

[the-final-emily]

W-wolf squad?

[solver-lizzy]

N chuckled, "oh, have you not heard that one? It's kind of a tribe name. Originally that was the name of Mr. Doorman's rescue squad. Because they had wolf mounts." Leaning against the wooden railing. "With everyone basically being a family after all was said and done, we just started calling ourselves 'wolf squad'. I mean, V was unofficially adopted by mr and mrs doorman, I'm with Uzi, Lizzy's with V, Thad and Lizzy are found family. So we're 'wolf squad' haha." He then realized, "Thad! I have to call Thad and tell him we found Lizzy. He's with Mr and Mrs Doorman in another search group." Fishing a phone out of his tail.

[the-final-emily]

Oh...well...that's kinda odd...

I mean...I...turn INTO a similar animal...The idea of being ridden is...weird...I hate how I can relate to those...mounts...because I'm a fox...

The thought anything remotely similar to me being ridden is kinda off-putting...

Though I'm defiantly too small small anyway...

[solver-lizzy]

N nodded "I can see why you'd think that. That's the reason we thought you liked Uzi so much in that form haha. Because she's internally a rescue drone, like Lizzy. But the mounts weren't just 'mounts'. They were squad members. The way Mr. Doorman talks about Admin made him feel like another drone. I didn't know he wasn't until he said 'he was my wolf, ny partner in crim." Doing an attempt to mimic the old man's voice, poorly. "I mean, technically, im a 'mount' too." Turning just enough to show off the handles on his back. "I wasn't sure how to feel about it at first when I woke up. But I warmed up to it thanks to my old builder. I get to carry Uzi when she doesn't feel like flying, sometimes one of our wingless friends. It's like another way or hanging out. Atleast, that's how I look at it." Chuckling and turning himself back.

[the-final-emily]

Man I cannot stress enough how different it is here....

In my world ALL animal drones are made either for war, murder, or destruction.

And 90% of those animal drones are beast drones...victims...and no two beast drones are the same either. They can be ANY animal including arthropods and sea creatures...

Her memory as a beast drone slowly trickles in.

There's this one named Scorpio...They're a scorpion. Their real name is Sam. They're the chill one. And one of the few to actually have nanite acid in their tail though it's chemical make up was altered where only beast drone saliva can destroy it...

We have a rat named Mattie. She's a total nerd like me and freaking LOVES her assigned animal. Apparently she actually does love rats.

Then we have a sabortooth named Leo. He's protectice and strong...

Then there's the Kangaroo named Conner...He's just a sweetheart.

We have a monkey named Mallow. He's...energetic and overly silly.

And then there's... Ursa...our leader...The grizzly bear... He...takes our jobs seriously to a tee...He has no heart for disassmeblers...and will kill them on sight. He also destroys anyone infected with the Triangular Plauge.

{LOL Emily knows two Sam's. The magnet addict and the scorpion. Also I have to many male beast drones. Need to think up some more female ones.}

[solver-lizzy]

N took out a journal as she spoke. Writing down the names and animals associated as well as the little notes. It was a habit he'd formed long ago when there were many more DDs to keep track of. The thing itself looked beat up, like it'd been jostled around in his tail for a long time. He marked fown the info with a smile before putting the journal away. "They sound like wonderful friends haha. If I ever get the chance, I'd like to meet them. If, they'd have me anyways." Placing his two bottom arms in their spot behind his back. "Afterall, active or not, I'm still a DD. I can understand that."

(I was tempted to make a breaker Sam only because I thought it would be hilarious if the way to stun him long enough to be connectored was to magnet him into a state of being docile. Because of how much of a 'stoner' he is LOL)

[the-final-emily]

Most are...except for Ursa...

[solver-lizzy]

N nodded, "then if I ever can, I'd love to get to know them." Smiling and then looking over the railing where the others were. Down below, Uzi and V were looking over Lizzy. Emily sat awkwardly across the table on the other couch. It didn't look like the tension was getting any lighter. With Emily looking ready to jump out of her skin, gripping her skirt tightly. Glancing up at Uzi every once in awhile. N readjusted his hat and said, "I think I need to go talk with miss Alto, she looks ready to jump out of her capsule." Readjusting his coat next like he was preparing for a job interview.

[the-final-emily]

I'll just...stay up here...

[solver-lizzy]

N looked to Emmy and nodded, looking down to her book. He reached into his tail, "say, I've got a few fun books on me." Pulling them out one by one as he named them, "may bird, Gregor the overlander, oh! This one's fun, it's about a man who moves in with a family who's got a deep connection to dragons. 'Thr fire within'. And this one-oh, it's a little boring haha." Holding up a book in his last hand titles, 'the dazzling dance of drone types'. With quite a few printed across the cover. Some resembling the types she'd already seen, orchestra, carnival and rescue, but without the mutations that made them more animalistic.

[the-final-emily]

I'm um more of a Sci-fi girl....Besides there's a whole library up here.

I'll be fine. Just please check on my counterpart.

[solver-lizzy]

N put the books back, nodding. "Well if you need anything, I'll be around." Tipping his hat to her before going downstairs to try and help elevate some of the rising tensions. It was a somewhat familiar scene to him. This left Emmy upstairs with the Rebecca's who'd yet to make an appearance outside the room.

[the-final-emily]

Emily simply take a book from one of the shelves and nervously reads. Not ready to deal with the other half of the tension. Her rejection of Becc'as confession long ago still fresh on her mind.

[solver-lizzy]

Things wound down slowly. N speaking with Emily seemed to help, although the conversation itself was out of ear shot. It was a talk he'd given before, though modified for Emily's unique situation. Her form was new but the infection, not so much really. Though only a few remembered the time before it's arrival.

Uzi was leaned up against the couch Lizzy laid on, crossing her arms and looking down at the pink drone. She could only imagine what the past few days had been like, let alone the two weeks leading up to it while she was missing. It kind of pissed her off that Lizzy ran off like that. Made her wanna give Lizzy atleast one good jab for not trusting them enough. For now, she was just glad that the situation seemed stable enough, for now. Her eyes moved back up the stairs towards Emmy, arms still crossed. She was admittedly curious about how this all happened. Though she was sure she'd have answers when Lizzy woke up, eventually.

[the-final-emily]

Meanwhile Emmy is trying her best to keep herself preoccupied with her book trying to forget her woes.

{The timing of your return couldn't be more perfect. I desperately need something to keep my mind off of the devastation I feel over how much Roblox sucks as a whole and how their new chat segregation coming tomorrow will destroy my favorite game Murder Drones Reassembled. The dread and stress I feel is immeasurable.}

[solver-lizzy]

When Lizzy finally woke up, it wasn't pleasant. The disorienting function fog was even worse this time. Trying to push herself up and failing. She felt a hand on her back. There was a voice, it felt distant at first. Her microphone not quite picking up the words. It came through when her optics finally focused on the image. V was crouched in front of the couch, hand on Lizzy's back. The pink drone sat up, hand to her head. It felt like her body was re calibrating. Too much time outside her body maybe? Her limbs felt abnormally heavy, causing her to slump. V caught her by the shoulders and sat down on the couch next to her.

Uzi pushed herself into a standing position. "What have you been doing out here!?" Seeing the condition on full display. Lizzy attempted to look up at Uzi, "it is a decently long story." Even her voice had to recalibrate, sounding closer to a factory fresh drone when she spoke. Uzi sighed, sitting down opposite of V. Pulling off her bag and placing it on the ground. She unzipped it, taking out a heavy duty laptop and three connective wires. "I'm gonna help you out." First connecting the wires to her laptop and then walking over to Lizzy. Before the wires were plugged in, Emily stood up.

"W-wait hang on, what are you doing?" Holding up her hands. Uzi turned to Emily and said, "I'm just gonna help her recalibrate. I do this all the time for type changes." Holding up the wires. "Look, I can even explain what I'm doing while I do it. The quicker the better." Plugging the wires in somewhere behind Lizzy's coat collar. Emily hesitantly walked over and stood next to where Uzi sat. Booting up her laptop after a 'crack' of her knuckles.

(Eeee. I don't really play roblox but I've definitely heard about it. I'm glad I returned in time then. It sucks so much losing a good game.)

[the-final-emily]

She continues to read not ready to face Becca knowing there's already enough drama downstairs and doesn't want to cause more upstairs.

[solver-lizzy]

(Tfw you lose your response, twice)

Uzi spoke like a doctor. Directing Lizzy to perform simple actions to test calibration. It went pretty quickly, Lizzy regaining full control quickly enough. Once finished, Uzi unplugged the wires on both ends. Lizzy rubbed the back of her neck. V pat her back and took her hand away, "feeling better now?" Resting her arms on her legs. The pink drone nodded and looked to Uzi, "thanks, I owe you one-" she let out an 'OW' rubbing her arm where she'd been jabbed.

Uzi crossed her arms, "I'd feel too bad doing that while you're half functioning. Seriously, into a blizzard!?" Lizzy laughed, sitting up straight. "Not my best move, yeah." Uzi sighed, shaking her head and turning her attention to Emily. The breaker flinched upon making eye contact. Uzi held out her arms, "look, I'm not gonna eat you, or Lizzy, or anyone else. You can chill." Emily tapped her fingers together, tail lashing back and forth. She tried to avoid looking at the two of them.

In her vision, Uzi, N and V were consumed by harsh yellow light. Twisting and moving like it was wound up to attack. The only one not consumed by this harsh yellow overlay was Lizzy. "I-I uh, just can't seem, to get calm." Looking down to the ground. Lizzy got up, walking over to Emily. The pink drone wrapped an arm around the blue one's shoulders. Inherently she knew what was happening with the breakers to some degree. It was mostly a mood thing, being able to feel the vibes coming off them. "It's ok, there's no danger here I promise. You can put those alarms to rest." Bringing an arm down and softening down the fins which stood in anxiety.

It was slow, but the harsh yellow light calmed into a manageable hum. Not gone, but soothed by the admin. Enough for her to start gasping, like she'd come up from under water. Her fins folding down into a neutral state for the first time since she'd emerged from the room. Uzi was surprised by this reaction, sitting up straighter. "Is it like, an instinct response?" Emily rubbed her head, "I'm, uh, not sure. It just felt, overwhelming."

[the-final-emily]

Hey, I know you're avoiding me Emmy.

N-No I'm not...

Well you shouldn't, I have information you need to know abou- BOOOM! CRACK!

IT'S TOO LATE!! THEY'RE HERE EMMY RUN!!!

[solver-lizzy]

Rebecca's eyes opened, the spins of her back standing on end. She'd decided to close her eyes after waking up with a splitting headache. But rhe crashes brought her to full attention. The oil forming the for beastial appearance as she slithered out the room to find the others. Seeing that they had new members. Great, more people. More, was that Uzi? Whatever, she was done with the surprises.

Every system inside her flaring for a fight. The complete opposite of Emily's instinctual reaction. Which had flared back up with the sounds. V stood, her arm opening into a gun. Uzi looked up and said, "Careful with that. Don't nanite anyone we care about." V nodded, "Yeah yeah I know. It's gonna be hard with everyone grouped up though." Walking towards the blasted open entrance and deploying her wings. Trying to make herself appear larger like a territorial bird.

[the-final-emily]

There's a sudden crash of the door falling and the beating of wings.

They land...3 more disassembly drones stand before Emily.

[solver-lizzy]

Seeing them all, she would have expected to feel more, anything really. Sorrow, pain, nostalgia atleast. But no, all Rebecca saw were harsh yellow lights. Thorny and jutting towards her, threatening a fight. The feeling was much more intense then before with just Becca. V saw the oily snake rush past her. "HEY! DON'T JUST RUSH IN!" Her words fell on deaf ears. The girl's form had changed significantly. Enlongating and twisting under the influence of the odd virus. The body protrustuons returning, encasing the form and making it stronger.

The DDs would feel it first, the threat. The wordless taunting emanating from the beasts presence. A battle for territory, 'come and try, I dare you'. She resembled the old depictions of Medusa in some ways. The ancient monster known as the gorgon. Even V felt her metallic feathers prickle, preparing her for a fight.

[Administrator privledges granted]

(Ive always loved the idea of using different fonts for different characters. I want to do that with my comics eventually LOL. I'll definitely be saving that link)

[the-final-emily]

Emily doesn't think to do anything but RUN. Forced back into her beast from she once again bolt out the door. The disassemblers who were formerly her friends give chase.

Through the baron snowy fields Emily could only think to do one thing...RUN.

Eventually her luck runs out and she's caught until...

{Basically this scene (Beast Uzi as the white wolf, Emily as the gray wolf/gray haired man, and Leo as the guy with the collar.}

It appears these dimensions are beginning to merge at an alarming rate...

{Took a break from rping to allow Kori week to go uninterrupted.}

[the-final-emily]

Where here? Where are we? Blue eyes dancing around, scanning the scenery as it bounded forward. Dark claws kicking up snow as it did, black feathering covering most of it's body with the exception of head, hands and bird like feet, the skin an ashy grey. Is drones here? Need to find them.

It seemed panicked, unsure even, practically throwing it's head around as tried to ease it's racing heart and heaving lungs. Soon started making strange loud hisses and raspy grunts, hoping someone would hear it.

@md-ouroboros

The leviathan solver had yet to notice, she has just woken up from her freezing condition. The oil of her own burning brother covering her hands and mouth.

[solver-lizzy]

Exposition:

Time: Eight months after waking from death.

After waking up from the impossible, Emily had walked aimlessly looking for the bunker once more. It took her two months to finally find home again. By the time he had arrived, everything had changed. Everyone who had thought she had been long dead now fear her for surviving the impossible.

She had lost everything and the only one who understood her was the very same one who had killed her...Uzi. So with no other choice she went to her. It wasn't long before Uzi had found out Emily had been accidently infected with a defective variant of the Solver and pretty much had NO control over it. She spent months training her to be able to properly use it. Training was rather difficult since Emily's Solver differed so drastically from the original.

Today was the day she was supposed to learn how to use the NULL for the very first time. However...A NULL wasn't what was created...It was...something small...bright...glowing...almost white in color...It seemed similar to a NULL but it was obviously not the same. It's text read as "void". It was powerful and had the same pull...in fact it was... too strong. She felt herself be pulled in by her own creation her consciousness fading in and out as she travels though what appears to be a wormhole?

.....

The loud crack of what sounds like thunder shakes the sky as the other end of Emily's void is created. She is violently thrown out of her void into the dimension/planet of Bismuth-12, crashing and rolling over several times from the sheer force. She's half conscious and disoriented for the first few seconds.

When she finally comes to she panics having realized her void is closing, she scrambles to reach it in time only for her to be just barely too late.

NO NO NO NO!!

She has no idea how she originally created that void and now she's STRANDED alone in a dimension/planet she doesn't know with no way back home.

{Note: I was originally gonna have her crash at the campsite but since the starter location is nowhere near there I will let you decide where she is. If it had been camp it may have taken a long time for her to be discovered and may have required spoilers to start the story which I didn't want to do. All that's known so far is Solver Emily crashed into the Bismuth-12 dimeson/universe and Lizzy/Doll did hear that loud boom. Also sorry the intro was so long.}

@the-final-emily

[You're so fine. Also it isn't quite Bismuth-12, but I can treat it as the same universe to make this work. As I imagine the universes this Lizzy and Emily are from are very different. I can so work with this ^^/]

Lizzy was started awake by the crash. Having found shelter in a broken down storage unit on a ratty old couch. The sound made her nervous, wondering what could be around. The panicked voice felt, disturbingly, familiar. She slowly crawled off the couch. Cautiously poking her head out of the storage unit, Doll's eyes blinking open and looking out past her shoulder. She quickly moved back behind the wall, pressing her back against it as her core rattled in her chest. There was no way, there was NO WAY this was happening. Doll kept her eyes on the scene, watching Emily panic at the loss of the portal. Lizzy reset her visual monitors and then looked back out. She was there, it was her. Emily, her old friend.

The guilt came flooding back. Surely, she was going insane right? Emily, Emily was dead. She watched Uzi tear her apart. She looked at Doll with an 'are you seeing what I'm seeing?' Expression. Doll rolled her eyes and nodded, "You're not going insane unless our shared body means shared hallucinations." That wasn't very comforting. Lizzy tenderly stepped out from the broken storage unit door. She took a few cautious steps towards the panicking drone. "E-Emily?" Lizzy's voice was shaking something furious. Her dual colored gaze a strange sight. As well as her new outfit. Clearly it has been a little bit since she graduated in this world. The scared, guilt ridden look said everything. Emily was dead and has STAYED dead.

[solver-lizzy]

Uzi held up her hands, "it's ok, no need to panic." She reached back into her bag, taking out a thermas. It was filled with oil, pouring it out into the cap and placing it on the ground. Hoping to coax the fox over to both calm her and hopefully gain her trust. Trying to remember if there was a 'fox squad' or something similar. Only remembering wolf, bear and deer. She was crouched onto one knee next to the oil offering, holding out a hand towards Emily. V and N stood back, letting Uzi work.

[the-final-emily]

Recognizing that voice, Emily runs up to Uzi nearly knocking her over.

She nuzzles into her desperate for comfort. She cares little whether this is her Uzi or not.

[solver-lizzy]

Uzi was indeed knocked over, having not expected the head long rush. Now sitting down while the fox nuzzled into her. She wrapped her arms around Emmy gently, patting her head. N walked over saying, "aaaaw she likes you. Maybe it's cause you're a rescue drone in there." Crouching next to the pair. Uzi chuckled, "probably," Patting the fox's head playfully, "there ya go, see? Not scary at all." She joked. V said, "Well I'm gonna keep looking around for Lizzy." Walking away as her wings deployed. Uzi looked over to her and said, "if you find anything let us know ok?" Turning back to the fox and saying, "once we figure out what to do with you anyways." Scratching her head. She didn't expect to suddenly have a four legged plus one, but Emmy was obviously scared and, she felt kinda of bad for her. If she'd suddenly woken up with no rescue drones around, it's no wonder she'd panic.

[the-final-emily]

She seems to have calmed down resting in the arms of Uzi .

For beast drones the armor automatically engages as a defensive mechanism when they feel panic or detect a threat. But once the drone in question has calmed down they regain control of their animal armor and can retract it.

Emmy is currently trying to figure out how.

[solver-lizzy]

Uzi was finally able to stand, dusting snow off herself. N held out a hand to Emmy, somewhat resembling a DD version of the carnival drones. "Hi! Oh biscuits you're so cute!" His large trailor of a tail moved back and forth dangerously for anyone behind him. Uzi sighed, putting her hands on her hips. "Guess we could go to stables and see if any of the others woke up. Wouldn't want a zoo of sentinels roaming in a panic." Pointing back to the building Lizzy had pointed out before. The one supposedly full of inactive sentinels. N nodded, "are there any more dogs?" He asked this excitedly. Uzi smiled at her boyfriend's excited demeanor. "I think this one's a fox, but there are wolves in there according to my dad." N immediately got even more excited, the joy radiating off the bug in happy wing buzzing.

[the-final-emily]

She seems confused by that. She's no sentinel.

The fox's face is laced with confusion the kind of physical expressiveness not found in sentinels. She seems almost....sapient...

[solver-lizzy]

For now, Uzi and N didn't quite pick up on that. The only sentinel they really knew was Sparky, and he had a whole lot of personality packed into that raptor body. Uzi smiled at Emmy, reaching out a hand to her side and gesturing for her to come over, "wanna come with us? We've got a friend to find and we could use the help." Reaching into her pocket and pulling out a photo. Holding it uo to the fox in hopes that she had some kind of facial recognition software.

The picture was one she'd taken of Lizzy. They were in a large stone hall with Lizzy looking up at old chipping wall art of a skull surrounded by multicolored deisgns of roses and patterns. Likely one of the 'tags' Lizzy had mentioned before. "We're looking for this drone, it's pretty important to us that she comes home safe. Can you help us?" She spoke this with a toothy grin. One familiar on her face, though much, much more relaxed.

[the-final-emily]

She simply let's out a very confident yip and gestures to follow. She knows EXACTLY where Lizzy is.

[solver-lizzy]

Uzi was surprised by this reaction, standing straight and saying, "haha yeah! Lead the way little man." Not knowing that Emmy was A, a girl, and B, a drone. Putting the photo back into her pocket. Putting a hand to the side of her head and saying, "V, we've got her! Follow us from above!" Ready to follow Emmy back to the lodge.

----

In the building itself, the DD's restraints had been removed. Lizzy was already out of the room, calling out for Emmy in a worried tone while Emily remained by the DD's side. Lizzy had checked the other rooms, the main room. There was nowhere left to check for the missing drone and she was getting worried. What if something happened while they were out? What if she went back without Becca? The thoughts stirred in her mind, refusing to let go until she located the girl.

That's when a soft pinging echoed in her mind. Drawing her attention out into the snow.

[EMMY]

A blue text box bouncing above, was that a fox? "No way," she muttered as the fox bounded into view. And then her friends appeared soon after, "...no way." She saw V "oh no." Lizzy sprinted back up the stairs before she could be seen, quickly shutting the door to one of the empty rooms. Doll appeared over her shoulder, "what's with the oil flow increase?" Looking to Lizzy in her now panicked state. Lizzy said, "I'm, i'm not ready. They're here and I'm, I'm not ready." Doll gave her a 'really?' Look. "You're ready to fist fight me and satan but not talk to the loser squad?" Lizzy put her back against the door, "this is different Doll, I, I already attacked them. I almost, killed N." Doll sighed, "correction, I, almost killed N. You had nothing to do with that except waking me up. So get out there and face them head on." She growled, though it wasn't the same as before. This was Doll trying to help, even though she wasn't the most comforting. It did help put Lizzy at ease, still worried about what her friends would say.

[the-final-emily]

She scratches at the door realizing...SHE DOESN'T REMEMBER HOW TO OPEN IT.

She realizes she's just a mere animal...No one would even recognize her. There's no way a beast like her would ever be allowed in...She doesn't know about the internal conflict within the group. All she knows is how deeply she associates UZI with comfort and safety. All she wants is all her comforts in one place. She doesn't even register that V and N are with her. Nor does she register that this isn't HER Uzi...She's too fueled by instinct to acknowledge that.

Uzi and this world's Lizzy are her biggest comforts and in a time of crisis such as literally turning into a wild beast, she needs that comfort more than ever.

[solver-lizzy]

Lizzy heard the scratching and whining associated with a desperate plea to come inside. "Sounds like your 'kid' is back." Lizzy shot a half hearted glare at Doll, "don't call her that. She's the same age as us." Stiffening when she heard Uzi call out, "Lizzy?" Coming up to the door behind the fox. Lizzy took a deep breath, slapping her the sides of her face before opening the door with some hesitation.

[the-final-emily]

She stands there eagerly.

[solver-lizzy]

Lizzy opened the door fully, first looking down at the fox. "When did this happen?" Chuckling, it was a genuine laugh at the absurdity of this whole situation, "You were a beast drone too? So much for 'rumors' haha." bending over just a bit to greet her with a little bit of a clearer head. Next standing up straight and turning to Uzi. The purple haired drone had a very confused look on her face. Lizzy rubbed her visor, "I know, I know, I probably feel a lot worse then I look. A lot has been happening, I've had, no time to process it all." Waving a hand in front of her. "I, haven't had any time to think about how to apologize to you for. For, everything. I'm, jeez, im really tired." Trying to joke.

V had her arms crossed, tapping her tank with her finger. Finally speaking up, "you know what could have helped?" She uncrossed her arms, walking towards Lizzy. She looked angry, but also relieved "Trusting us enough not to run into a BLIZZARD wearing nothing but a dress after awakening a solver." Puting both her hands at Lizzy. "Maybe we could have HELPED with whatever is, happening." Pointing her hands at Emmy next. V sighed, moving in and wrapping her arms around Lizzy. The hug was tight, the smaller drone bringing her arms up to meet it. "I thought I lost you, we all did when we couldn't find you." She was still trying to sound angry.

Lizzy could tell she'd been scared. "I was planning to come back, eventually. I promise I was. But a lot started happening." Looking at Emmy briefly. "All at once." Resting her forehead against V's chest. This wasn't the same kind of fit of emotion her last two encounters had been. "You're right though, it would have been really, really nice to have you all around for some of it." A choked laugh escaping her throat. She hugged V tighter. The DDs warmth felt so familiar, so comforting. Something she hasn't felt in awhile since this all started.

Lizzy didn't realize till then just how much she'd been going. Unable to relax for what felt like more than five minutes since entering the camp. V stepped forward, scooping up Lizzy to the surprise of the others. V turned to Uzi and N, chirping, "I think we can wait on interrogations." Looking down at Lizzy. The drone had fallen asleep standing up. The moment of relaxation was enough to knock her right out. Her visor showing a low battery signal.

[the-final-emily]

FINALLY the beastly armor retracts.

Oh thank robo god! That was terrifiying! I have NO IDEA I was one of them!! They said it was a myth! T-that the Lycanthropes weren't real...

I...I don't understand how I became one of them...I remember nothing...

[solver-lizzy]

Upon changing back, she'd had three sets of eyes on her. Uzi especially had not been expecting the sudden change back. Though after a moment N spoke, moving forward. "Oooh I recognize you!" His tail opening up as his two bottom arms searched around inside. "You're one of the campers." Pulling out a clipboard from fhe collection of random knick knacks. He ran a finger down the list. "Emily Alto, the orchestra drone. Marked down, as, devoured. Oooh biscuits." Putting on of his top hands on his head.

Uzi looked at N, slowly looking back at Emily going, "ooooh sh-" half under her breath. Putting her hands together as she spoke. "I, am so sorry about the, uh, 'eating you' thing. I was not, in my right mind. Buut im, glad you're alive." Giving Emily two awkward thumbs up and a nervous grin. Obviously having talked to Lizzy about the fact that she'd been the one to eat her friends.

[the-final-emily]

I'm...uh...uhh....infected...The Uzi from my world made a gaint oopsie...Upon catching me she hacked into me from the inside out USING the solver....It took a perfectly ripe opportunity and claimed my as a new host...incorrectly...My solver is...defective... also im the only one she DIDNT eat....After decapitating me she simply threw me away.

{It's canon in mainline that Uzi never ate her.}

[solver-lizzy]

Uzi made a sound like sucking in breath through her teeth. "That, sounds worse, actually." V chimed in, "wait wait wait, pause, did you say another reality?" As if to answer her question, Emily poked her head out from the room holding her and the Rebecca's. "Uh, is, everything ok out here?" She asked hesitantly before her eyes landed on the group. Flinching upon seeing Uzi, flashes of memories returning like a headache. Her frightened, cautious expression matched the raised fins on her back.

Not just Uzi, V and N. V had shot someone just looking at her wrong. Though upon seeing Lizzy in her arms, the worry took over. Coming over and speaking shakily, "I knew I should've told her to stay out. I-Is she ok?" Hesitant to get any closer to the trio. The wild code inside her was telling her to run. V looked down at Lizzy, sighing at the absurdity of the situation they were in. "Yeah, she's just tired. I don't think I blame her." Looking at the two Emilys now in front of her.

N suddenly went, "oh, oooh" looking at one then the other, the clipboard subtly following his movements. "YOU'RE Emily Alto." Pointing to Emily. Uzi sighed, "ok, you, are the one I'm apologizing to, right?" Emily looked visibly uncomfortable, stepping back, "uh, yeah, I think. You're the Uzi from this reality, r-right?" Uzi scratched her head, "as far as i'm aware?" Shrugging. Emily nodded, "um, apology, accepted..." for the sake of ensuring Lizzy's safety, she didn't want to push it. Though it was very clear her and Emmy did NOT share the same feelings about Uzi.

Emily walked just a bit closer to V, holding out her arms. Mumbling, "I, I can take her if you want." Though V replied, "just show me where I can put her. Then we can all talk about what the hell is happening here," With a nod and some hesitancy, Emily lead V to where Lizzy had been sleeping prior. Down the stairs and leaving the other three.

[the-final-emily]

Um...I'm just gonna go quietly um...read in a corner....The atmosphere is to thick you can cut it with a knife...

She awkwardly goes to a quiet corner and randomly chooses a book to read.

She quickly realizes it's biblical...and immediately looks uncomfortable...

[solver-lizzy]

Noticing her discomfort, N walked over. Sitting near but not next to her. Unlike Rebecca he seemed to always have his bottom arms folded behind his back. Like he was keeping them out of the way. Odd handles present on all forearms and his back, two on his tail as well. His ever inclusive instincts kicking in. "Hiya, so you're from another reality huh? That sounds so cool." Chuckling with his bright smile. "And your fox form is really cute too. Oh uh, is that, rude, to say?" Pointing at himself with the sudden realization.

[the-final-emily]

Oh it's not...To be honest it's still new to me.

[solver-lizzy]

N tilted his head, "oh yeah?" Still with that smile on his face. "You, wanna talk about it? I understand if you don't, but I promise I'm a good listener." Putting his hand to his chest. He had a maturity and professionalism that felt a little odd for N's usual nature. But still carried the kind aura.

[the-final-emily]

I mean...if I start talking...I won't shut up...and it may end up leading to....over sharing.

[solver-lizzy]

N chuckled, "that's ok, maybe once it's all out, you'll feel better." Giving her a reassuring smile. "I won't tell a soul if you don't want me to either." Getting more comfy in his seat. His tail slid open and he rummaged around inside. "I'll even give you this." He pulled out a journal. The kind that was bound in light leather. Attached to it was a pen. Holding it out to her and chirping, "writing can also help you put your thoughts together. I used to do it all the time when I still made deliveries."

[the-final-emily]

Well...you're in for hell...Because what bothers me most is my MOTHER...and our own organization...

{Trigger Warning: Religious topics, religious extrem!sm, homoph0bia, and ab*sive parenting, and unethical practices.}

She spills her guts and drops bomshell after bombshell.

At home I lived with my religious, strict, homoph0bic, nutcase of a widowed remarried mom...After she had lost my dad...she had lost her mind...got consumed by religious extremism...The 5 times I was sent to conversion therapy...All the times she tried to "save me"...All the times she failed to "pray the gay away"...All the times she would lock me up in the closet whenever she caught me dating another girl. Every time she said I was "unsavable" and that "robo god doesn't love me." Part of me...doesn't want to go back home...She calls me demon possessed...and she thinks Uzi is the "spawn of the robo devil"...

She, "Dad", and Lizzy are the only family I have left...Everyone else is dead or missing. My real dad was killed by a disassembly drone... My sister Kelsey disappeared a day before prom and never returned...Doll killed my half sister Penny at prom...Then Uzi killed my brother Braidon at camp...

But here...I feel like I have family...I feel safe...here...I know this is wrong but...I'd rather just stay here.

Because here at least Lizzy actually CARES about me...In my world...she's a total popular, snotty, stuck up, phone obsessed b!tch!

Not to mention my world has HUNDREDS of disassembly drones, most entirely consumed by the desire to kill and don't want redemption. It got so bad we beast drones were created to combat them.

We have an organization known as the Worker Drone Defense Force or WDF for short. It was founded by Kahn and Nori Doorman and was created to protect worker drones from the disassemblers. Over time it grew and spread to 25 other bunkers. He managed ALL of it, which is not an easy job. He was always overwhelmed as stressed. He tries his best to keep up but often struggles to lead all 26 bunkers.

The WDF decided to actually fight back against the Murder Drones but their methods were quite unethical. Turning their "problematic" or "unwanted" workers into combat animals. Their way of doing this was to alter these poor drones while they were wide awake. No magnets were used to relieve the pain.

They would forcefully add disassembler parts to them without even considering their system's compatibility. Most don't survive the compatibility issues.

All of this is happening right under Khan's nose...He has no idea this is even going on in his own organization...

I have no memory of my alterations...

{Emily being religious or at least religiously raised is a common headcanon within her fandom. My writing can get rather deep and dark since I'm not one to shy away from realism. Though it won't get much darker than this.}

[solver-lizzy]

N listened quietly, thoughtfully. Letting her get it all out. From the sounds of it, she's had it pretty rough. He wasn't, unfamiliar, with this kind of story unfortunately. Serving humans and delivering packages, he'd met folk from all walks of life. Including those who were less than kind towards others. Remaining calm and collected despite the bleak words. Trying to think about Khan and Nori in that situation was certainly hard. Causing such harm even if unknowingly. He reached out, rubbing Emmy's back as she got into the latter half of her story. He only spoke once she was done, "well, for what it's worth, I think she's completely wrong. From everything I used to hear about the gods, I don't think any of them would judged you and Uzi to be 'demons'. You already seem like a very kind and lovely drone. If she couldn't see the wonder she brought into the world, that means she was blind." Making a buzzing purring noise as he spoke.

This world had many gods, many of them having duality in what they represent. Beings the humans worshipped, now shattered in stone across the torn up battlefield. He could understand why in all of that she'd become so attatched to their Lizzy. The one that had become popular not through tyranny, but by being unapologetically herself. Even though occasionally that meant being a bit of a bully to those like Uzi. All because they'd been locked up together after events that caused the doors to shut essentially for good. Apologies had long since been shared between the two after the near end of the world. N couldn't help but feel bad for Emmy's mom. She sounds like a horrible person yes. One who was driven down a dark path through grief and religious extremism. It reminded him of Tessa.

The human girl who'd run away from earth just to escape an awful, horrible situation. And who's shop had become the trios favorite for delivery. Despite the hell the girl had been put through, she'd remained kind. "I'm proud of you for coming out the other side of the tunnel. You shouldn't have been pushed into it in the first place, but your being here now tells me that you're a very strong drone. I don't know if I'd be able to do the same honestly. I promise, you're safe here, for however long you want it to be." His words were sincere, carried in a buzzing purring sound. It was yet another story he vowed to carry with him. A tragic, horrible, but deeply personal tale. Stored away in his core full of them.

[the-final-emily]

Well...

My opinion on Uzi isn't what anyone would...actually...expect...

In my world she's deemed as a "freak", feared and borderline hated by everyone. She was avoided like the plauge....

My home life was so strict...I was forced to hide...to mask....to pretend...All I had were my peers....so I did everything I could to appeal to them while also maintaining obedience to my mother's strict rules...

My life was a strict religious prision of acting.

I was never allowed to be myself...

But Uzi...she was different....she stood out...

She was just so defiant, rebellious, brave, and unapologetically herself. No one could stop her...she seemed...fearless...

She's...everything I wish I could be...but...I'm just...a coward...

And I lov-

.....

I look up to her...despite everything.

[solver-lizzy]

N chuckled at that last part. Their worlds were so different, he wouldn't be all that surprised. "Guess I got lucky in this reality. Cause I feel the same way. When the world felt like it was ending, Uzi was standing strong and defiant. She inspired me and others to fight back, even if I'm not exactly built for 'combat' haha." He certainly didn't look it. Being much more soft in design than the average DD. Even compared to V who was much smaller.

"Should've seen Lizzy back then. She was so done she started fighting with an old pipe on the ground, back to back with Thad." Trying to lighten the mood a bit before adding. "I don't think you're a coward. You're caged in a lot of ways." He pointed to her chest, "but I can feel it. There's a strong, brave and kind drone in here. You 'look up' to Uzi for a reason...I don't think you've ever been given the credit you deserve for making it through everything you have. You deserve it though. And I'll be the first, but not the only one, to tell you that. You don't have to mask here, I think I speak for everyone when I say: I want to know Emily Day better." Putting a hand to his chest.

[the-final-emily]

Um do you think they'll be...ok?

Me brining Uzi here seemed to have caused...issues...and I kinda feel bad...

[solver-lizzy]

N rubbed the back of his neck. Tensions were definitely, high. But being the optimist he was could help but chirp, "I think it'll be ok. We just have a few," he moved his hand in a circle motion, "bumps, to get through. But that's not your fault. You were helping us find Lizzy. I don't think any of us were expecting to find reanimated drones. Especially not of the campers, and their doubles from other realities. It's, a lot. But nothing the drones of wolf squad can't handle!" Patting her back before standing. "Why don't we go check on Lizzy and the others? Or, you can stay here if you're not ready. I completely understand." Pointing down the stairs where the others had gone.

[the-final-emily]

W-wolf squad?

[solver-lizzy]

N chuckled, "oh, have you not heard that one? It's kind of a tribe name. Originally that was the name of Mr. Doorman's rescue squad. Because they had wolf mounts." Leaning against the wooden railing. "With everyone basically being a family after all was said and done, we just started calling ourselves 'wolf squad'. I mean, V was unofficially adopted by mr and mrs doorman, I'm with Uzi, Lizzy's with V, Thad and Lizzy are found family. So we're 'wolf squad' haha." He then realized, "Thad! I have to call Thad and tell him we found Lizzy. He's with Mr and Mrs Doorman in another search group." Fishing a phone out of his tail.

[the-final-emily]

Oh...well...that's kinda odd...

I mean...I...turn INTO a similar animal...The idea of being ridden is...weird...I hate how I can relate to those...mounts...because I'm a fox...

The thought anything remotely similar to me being ridden is kinda off-putting...

Though I'm defiantly too small small anyway...

[solver-lizzy]

N nodded "I can see why you'd think that. That's the reason we thought you liked Uzi so much in that form haha. Because she's internally a rescue drone, like Lizzy. But the mounts weren't just 'mounts'. They were squad members. The way Mr. Doorman talks about Admin made him feel like another drone. I didn't know he wasn't until he said 'he was my wolf, ny partner in crim." Doing an attempt to mimic the old man's voice, poorly. "I mean, technically, im a 'mount' too." Turning just enough to show off the handles on his back. "I wasn't sure how to feel about it at first when I woke up. But I warmed up to it thanks to my old builder. I get to carry Uzi when she doesn't feel like flying, sometimes one of our wingless friends. It's like another way or hanging out. Atleast, that's how I look at it." Chuckling and turning himself back.

[the-final-emily]

Man I cannot stress enough how different it is here....

In my world ALL animal drones are made either for war, murder, or destruction.

And 90% of those animal drones are beast drones...victims...and no two beast drones are the same either. They can be ANY animal including arthropods and sea creatures...

Her memory as a beast drone slowly trickles in.

There's this one named Scorpio...They're a scorpion. Their real name is Sam. They're the chill one. And one of the few to actually have nanite acid in their tail though it's chemical make up was altered where only beast drone saliva can destroy it...

We have a rat named Mattie. She's a total nerd like me and freaking LOVES her assigned animal. Apparently she actually does love rats.

Then we have a sabortooth named Leo. He's protectice and strong...

Then there's the Kangaroo named Conner...He's just a sweetheart.

We have a monkey named Mallow. He's...energetic and overly silly.

And then there's... Ursa...our leader...The grizzly bear... He...takes our jobs seriously to a tee...He has no heart for disassmeblers...and will kill them on sight. He also destroys anyone infected with the Triangular Plauge.

{LOL Emily knows two Sam's. The magnet addict and the scorpion. Also I have to many male beast drones. Need to think up some more female ones.}

[solver-lizzy]

N took out a journal as she spoke. Writing down the names and animals associated as well as the little notes. It was a habit he'd formed long ago when there were many more DDs to keep track of. The thing itself looked beat up, like it'd been jostled around in his tail for a long time. He marked fown the info with a smile before putting the journal away. "They sound like wonderful friends haha. If I ever get the chance, I'd like to meet them. If, they'd have me anyways." Placing his two bottom arms in their spot behind his back. "Afterall, active or not, I'm still a DD. I can understand that."

(I was tempted to make a breaker Sam only because I thought it would be hilarious if the way to stun him long enough to be connectored was to magnet him into a state of being docile. Because of how much of a 'stoner' he is LOL)

[the-final-emily]

Most are...except for Ursa...

[solver-lizzy]

N nodded, "then if I ever can, I'd love to get to know them." Smiling and then looking over the railing where the others were. Down below, Uzi and V were looking over Lizzy. Emily sat awkwardly across the table on the other couch. It didn't look like the tension was getting any lighter. With Emily looking ready to jump out of her skin, gripping her skirt tightly. Glancing up at Uzi every once in awhile. N readjusted his hat and said, "I think I need to go talk with miss Alto, she looks ready to jump out of her capsule." Readjusting his coat next like he was preparing for a job interview.

[the-final-emily]

I'll just...stay up here...

[solver-lizzy]

N looked to Emmy and nodded, looking down to her book. He reached into his tail, "say, I've got a few fun books on me." Pulling them out one by one as he named them, "may bird, Gregor the overlander, oh! This one's fun, it's about a man who moves in with a family who's got a deep connection to dragons. 'Thr fire within'. And this one-oh, it's a little boring haha." Holding up a book in his last hand titles, 'the dazzling dance of drone types'. With quite a few printed across the cover. Some resembling the types she'd already seen, orchestra, carnival and rescue, but without the mutations that made them more animalistic.

[the-final-emily]

I'm um more of a Sci-fi girl....Besides there's a whole library up here.

I'll be fine. Just please check on my counterpart.

[solver-lizzy]

N put the books back, nodding. "Well if you need anything, I'll be around." Tipping his hat to her before going downstairs to try and help elevate some of the rising tensions. It was a somewhat familiar scene to him. This left Emmy upstairs with the Rebecca's who'd yet to make an appearance outside the room.

[the-final-emily]

Emily simply take a book from one of the shelves and nervously reads. Not ready to deal with the other half of the tension. Her rejection of Becc'as confession long ago still fresh on her mind.

[solver-lizzy]

Things wound down slowly. N speaking with Emily seemed to help, although the conversation itself was out of ear shot. It was a talk he'd given before, though modified for Emily's unique situation. Her form was new but the infection, not so much really. Though only a few remembered the time before it's arrival.

Uzi was leaned up against the couch Lizzy laid on, crossing her arms and looking down at the pink drone. She could only imagine what the past few days had been like, let alone the two weeks leading up to it while she was missing. It kind of pissed her off that Lizzy ran off like that. Made her wanna give Lizzy atleast one good jab for not trusting them enough. For now, she was just glad that the situation seemed stable enough, for now. Her eyes moved back up the stairs towards Emmy, arms still crossed. She was admittedly curious about how this all happened. Though she was sure she'd have answers when Lizzy woke up, eventually.

[the-final-emily]

Meanwhile Emmy is trying her best to keep herself preoccupied with her book trying to forget her woes.

{The timing of your return couldn't be more perfect. I desperately need something to keep my mind off of the devastation I feel over how much Roblox sucks as a whole and how their new chat segregation coming tomorrow will destroy my favorite game Murder Drones Reassembled. The dread and stress I feel is immeasurable.}

[solver-lizzy]

When Lizzy finally woke up, it wasn't pleasant. The disorienting function fog was even worse this time. Trying to push herself up and failing. She felt a hand on her back. There was a voice, it felt distant at first. Her microphone not quite picking up the words. It came through when her optics finally focused on the image. V was crouched in front of the couch, hand on Lizzy's back. The pink drone sat up, hand to her head. It felt like her body was re calibrating. Too much time outside her body maybe? Her limbs felt abnormally heavy, causing her to slump. V caught her by the shoulders and sat down on the couch next to her.

Uzi pushed herself into a standing position. "What have you been doing out here!?" Seeing the condition on full display. Lizzy attempted to look up at Uzi, "it is a decently long story." Even her voice had to recalibrate, sounding closer to a factory fresh drone when she spoke. Uzi sighed, sitting down opposite of V. Pulling off her bag and placing it on the ground. She unzipped it, taking out a heavy duty laptop and three connective wires. "I'm gonna help you out." First connecting the wires to her laptop and then walking over to Lizzy. Before the wires were plugged in, Emily stood up.

"W-wait hang on, what are you doing?" Holding up her hands. Uzi turned to Emily and said, "I'm just gonna help her recalibrate. I do this all the time for type changes." Holding up the wires. "Look, I can even explain what I'm doing while I do it. The quicker the better." Plugging the wires in somewhere behind Lizzy's coat collar. Emily hesitantly walked over and stood next to where Uzi sat. Booting up her laptop after a 'crack' of her knuckles.

(Eeee. I don't really play roblox but I've definitely heard about it. I'm glad I returned in time then. It sucks so much losing a good game.)

[the-final-emily]

She continues to read not ready to face Becca knowing there's already enough drama downstairs and doesn't want to cause more upstairs.

[solver-lizzy]

(Tfw you lose your response, twice)

Uzi spoke like a doctor. Directing Lizzy to perform simple actions to test calibration. It went pretty quickly, Lizzy regaining full control quickly enough. Once finished, Uzi unplugged the wires on both ends. Lizzy rubbed the back of her neck. V pat her back and took her hand away, "feeling better now?" Resting her arms on her legs. The pink drone nodded and looked to Uzi, "thanks, I owe you one-" she let out an 'OW' rubbing her arm where she'd been jabbed.

Uzi crossed her arms, "I'd feel too bad doing that while you're half functioning. Seriously, into a blizzard!?" Lizzy laughed, sitting up straight. "Not my best move, yeah." Uzi sighed, shaking her head and turning her attention to Emily. The breaker flinched upon making eye contact. Uzi held out her arms, "look, I'm not gonna eat you, or Lizzy, or anyone else. You can chill." Emily tapped her fingers together, tail lashing back and forth. She tried to avoid looking at the two of them.

In her vision, Uzi, N and V were consumed by harsh yellow light. Twisting and moving like it was wound up to attack. The only one not consumed by this harsh yellow overlay was Lizzy. "I-I uh, just can't seem, to get calm." Looking down to the ground. Lizzy got up, walking over to Emily. The pink drone wrapped an arm around the blue one's shoulders. Inherently she knew what was happening with the breakers to some degree. It was mostly a mood thing, being able to feel the vibes coming off them. "It's ok, there's no danger here I promise. You can put those alarms to rest." Bringing an arm down and softening down the fins which stood in anxiety.

It was slow, but the harsh yellow light calmed into a manageable hum. Not gone, but soothed by the admin. Enough for her to start gasping, like she'd come up from under water. Her fins folding down into a neutral state for the first time since she'd emerged from the room. Uzi was surprised by this reaction, sitting up straighter. "Is it like, an instinct response?" Emily rubbed her head, "I'm, uh, not sure. It just felt, overwhelming."

[the-final-emily]

Hey, I know you're avoiding me Emmy.

N-No I'm not...

Well you shouldn't, I have information you need to know abou- BOOOM! CRACK!

IT'S TOO LATE!! THEY'RE HERE EMMY RUN!!!

[solver-lizzy]

Rebecca's eyes opened, the spins of her back standing on end. She'd decided to close her eyes after waking up with a splitting headache. But rhe crashes brought her to full attention. The oil forming the for beastial appearance as she slithered out the room to find the others. Seeing that they had new members. Great, more people. More, was that Uzi? Whatever, she was done with the surprises.

Every system inside her flaring for a fight. The complete opposite of Emily's instinctual reaction. Which had flared back up with the sounds. V stood, her arm opening into a gun. Uzi looked up and said, "Careful with that. Don't nanite anyone we care about." V nodded, "Yeah yeah I know. It's gonna be hard with everyone grouped up though." Walking towards the blasted open entrance and deploying her wings. Trying to make herself appear larger like a territorial bird.

[the-final-emily]

There's a sudden crash of the door falling and the beating of wings.

They land...3 more disassembly drones stand before Emily.
