Open Path // Murder Drones

6 | Crazy

"N." She responded, engulfed in crimson red and deep scars which ripped through her suit and fractured yet intact pieces of her helmet. Her voice was shaky and inaudiable at moments as she rambled, her hands out as if she wanted to collect something dripping above. A worn down J limped towards her, her tail stuck injected into her neck whilst her arms were burnt by acidic matter, her mouth with tight barbed wires."
"Oh my.." N quickly placed his quivering fingers over his mouth and sobbed quietly. He seemed so distraught as his body flunge towards them."
"STOP!" Tessa screamed out, and inside N's heart slowly shattered. 
"Why?!" He yelled, his face slowly filling with how upset he was, rather then sad. Tessa shook her head, stepping back from him.
"It'll be attracted to you." She murmured weakly, acting faint and light-headed.
"It?" Uzi butted in, folding her arms. "Why did you-"
"Why did you leave us?!" N interrupted Uzi, but it was fairs, his expression revealed how badly he wanted to say this. J steppped slowly towards the three, not even able to show the amount of hatred she had for all of them like she usually would.  As her mouth was barbed tight, she had to use her screen. Leave her alone.. It read, and N couldn't hold it in anymore.

"Why? We deserve to know!" He cracked, stomping his foot into the ground which made J feel threatened. She was in a vulnerable state, and she seemed to know something that the other's didn't. Stop it, N! Her screen stated, but Uzi did a better job at telling him off. Her tactic was jumping up onto his shoulders and waddling around, which immediately brought him into a protective state.
"Uzi?! Don't!...Stop...wobbling, now!" He jiggled like a piece of jelly on a plate due to the weight on him. Uzi efficently did the job, and leaped off before dusting her hands sarcastically. 
"Now, show us the files." The atmosphere flicked back to it's seriousness, and Tessa turned to J before rummaging through her pockets. She took it out and Uzi snatched it out her hand instantly, and it was so quick Tessa wasn't prepared for it.
"Hey!" She mumbled, but she knew she couldn't moved much anyway. She could only watch the little gremlin read and poke nose through every little detail like a rat rumamging through a bin for cheese.

"Something something, Nori Doorman?" Uzi tilted her head and turned to the others who seemed extremely interested in what she was currently doing, which caught her off guard and she quickly looked back down to ignore it. "So you quite literally found a list of the infected bots..okay.." She peered deeper until she gasped. "Uzi..." She looked back up and everybody except Doll seemed shocked, when she looked back at them properly she was confuesed.
"Что теперь?" (Now what?)  She groaned, crossing her arms as she came back into the conversation. 
"I'm just playing with you guys." Uzi smiled, but Tessa just radiated dissatisfaction.
"There's no need to be 'playing', you are infected. But it's only surprising since that list was made ages ago, before you were even.." Tessa stops, her voice is delicate like a china set of plates. "Wait." Tessa moves towards Uzi, taking the paper from her and tracing her bruised, exposed finger's along it. 
"Cover up, Tes." N murmurs, extremely worried about Tessa, weirdly concerned, actually. He seemed pretty livid a second ago. 
"I will, just wait." Her voice is paitent now, and more assuring until she folds the paper and hides it away. "How old are you, Uzi?"

Silence slithers into the gpa between them as Uzi thinks, and Tessa covers up to comfort N's paranoia.
"I don't keep track of that nonsense!" Uzi throws her hands up angrily, before pouting and turnign her body to the side. "Ask me something better, like my favourite anime."

"Хотя на самом деле это никого не волнует." (Although in reality no one cares.) 
"What did I say about being harsh!" Uzi points her harmless finger into Doll's screen, and quickly it's twisted by the grasps of Doll. She winces and whines in pain, whilst Tessa is still bothered by her ignorance.
"We need this, didn't you wanna find out who you were?" Tessa clears her throat irritatedly, emotionally slapping sense into Uzi.
Uzi turns back upwards and stops moaning. "Well, not from the likes of you." She randomly said, turning the whole mood upside down. Tes straigthens up, her hands already implanted on her hips.
"What do you mean by that.?" 
"Sure, I've never liked you, but after that whole betrayal move..it'll never change." She spat, picking her bag up before turning around as though she was going to leave. She was, and N seemed ready to follow.  "Wait." Uzi came back to Tessa, and robbed her of the files before rushing back to N, and off they were.

"What?! N, wait!" Tes called out, but J blocked her and kept her back, but she couldn't help but retaliate and try to move, but her body was fragile in this state, which is why she need their support even more. "I'll explain!" 
They turn around, and N seems unfazed. "Explaining does nothing to change what's already infront of me." Uzi mumbles, before flipping her off and holding hands with N, noticing how silent he was being after the whole distraction.
