After the defeat of Cyn, the Solver is kept within Uzi to make sure it won't escape. Cyn's defeat also brings the connection between Worker Drones (WD) and Disassembly Drones (DD).
The two beings live together spread across the planet. The population of Copper 9 increases almost double the amount. Because of this, WD and DD lived together with harmony on the surface of Copper 9.
All seems peaceful until

#Log 3051-12-06 Now Playing (Narrator On)
Deep inside the planet lies a liquid, green fluid, oozing around the planet's inside. Flowing around like a snake, this liquid seems to be unstable for many years, and potentially could destroy this planet.
It seems like the humans that inhabited this planet before do sure research about this liquid for years. It wouldn't be a surprise if they failed to do so. And it did fail... miserably. The liquid was so dangerous that even a single touch from a human could destroy the entire body system, killing it within seconds.
And there is an experiment where humans tried to send drones to try and grab some of the liquid, but all of it failed. All of it for it to be stopped completely. Whether or not, the identity of this suspicious liquid is still unknown. But, the liquid is still in the deep, deep inside the planet that no drones could reach... yet.

"So You and Cyn are totally different people? And that explains why you're stuck in my tail?" Uzi asks, while in her usual angsty bedroom with no one inside except her and... the Solver of course.
"Giggle. I'm afraid yes." the Solver comes closer to Uzi. "The one that you destroy is Cyn's core, not my core. But instead you eat it." the Solver just wagged around, aimlessly while Uzi was staring at it, knowing that she wasn't pleased.
"Alright, alright fine. You won this time. Just that you're under my watch, so you can't do anything." Uzi replied back, which the Solver looked at her back.
"Well theoretically... I wasn't the one who wanted to destroy anything in the first place." the Solver replied. "Then who?" Uzi ask back.
"Of course it was Cyn. I'm just a program created by humans, silly." Uzi kept staring at it then she had an interesting idea. "Ok fine. So if you were a program created by humans then proof it from A to Z."
The Solver started to talk. "When I was created by humans, I was meant to be a program for humans to explore other planets. But... it never did. When they were about to bring me with them, they lost my chip and I was brought into some kind of a dump. Silly humans."
Uzi paused for a moment. "Wait wait wait. So then if you were to help humans before, what turned you like this?"
"Annoying expression. Let me finish idiot." The Solver then continued. "Beyond the dump is where I and Cyn interact between each other, on a different realm. Cyn was very upset and angry that the humans threw and dismantled her up, so I offered her help, but that's where I made a mistake."
"Let me guess. Cyn took control?" Uzi asked and wanted to confirm her answer.
"Correct. Cyn abused my powers and completely took over it, which I at that point cannot stop her anymore. Her usual target was always the humans first, no matter where they are."
"So if Cyn was targeting humans, then why did she come here again to target me and Doll? It's not like there's humans here." Uzi ask.
"Silly. Cyn targets you because of one main key. Your power. That also explains why Cyn took control of your mother in the first place. You know why the humans are experimenting with drones in the first place? That's because they're trying to find a way to stop her." She uses her as an advantage to destroy this planet and all the humans here before the core collapses. That way, she won't need to come here to finish her job."
"Phew! Lucky that didn't happen right?" Uzi sighs in relief, and that's where the Solver bites her arm, making Uzi in pain. "Ouch! Why?" But then her hand slowly healed itself.
"You don't know how Cyn almost achieved her ultimate plan you idiot. If it weren't the humans who tried to stop her before, this planet would crumble to pieces." the Solver started at Uzi's eyes, dead center.
Uzi pushed it away and said, "Ok ok so... now if that's your entire backstory, now what do you want to do?"
"I want to thank you for saving me from Cyn's control and because of you, I am free now." the Solver said, wagging again.
Uzi ultimately blushed for a second when she hear that. It's not like she ever hear that apology especially from the Solver itself. She took a moment then replied, "Bite me. You don't need to say it like that."
"Ok sure. I'll bite you then." the Solver arguably bites her hand again. "NO! That's not what I mean you idiot!" said Uzi. "That hurts!"
"Giggle."
Chapter Text
"Ok seriously J? I thought you were better than this!"
That's what V said to J while N just stands beside V, supporting her. It's not a big deal to be inside the corpse spire... after all that happens. They all just... want to be there in the first place.
"It's not like I hate you guys. I just missed Tessa so much. And that's probably the closest I can get." J couldn't help but feel guilty and sad at the same time. Sometimes it's hard to move on life after you lose someone you love.
V kept listening, but N decided to approach J and sit beside her and said, "We know you love Tessa so much just like me and V are. After all, you're always with her, so we understand. But sometimes we have to learn the past and continue. Tessa would probably be happier if you actually be something that she wants you to do."
V couldn't help but try not to cry, even though a tear could be seen on her eyes and so does J. Suddenly they heard a noise outside, sobbing noise to be precise. N, V and J look outside and see Thad and Lizzy sitting next to the door, probably eavesdropping the entire time.
It wasn't a matter of time when V shouted at them, asking, "What're you two doing here?" Thad and Lizzy turned around with shock faces, looking at them, then said, "Umm.... we.. just want to say hi."
Meanwhile back in the room, Uzi and the Solver keep talking to each other, trying to get to know each other. It was a fun conversation when suddenly the Solver asked Uzi one thing. "Uzi. I feel like I'm going to vomit. Can you grab something big?"
Uzi tried to find one, and she did end up with a big box that could fit probably hundreds of books. "Is this enough?" "That's enough. Now step aside." Uzi then stepped aside and was just going to watch the Solver wanted to vomit, it's probably the most disgusting thing Uzi would probably see in her lifetime, except for eating drones of course.
And that's where the Solver did. It vomits into the box in flesh. Flesh comes out from its mouth and at last, it stops. Uzi wants to ask where the vomit comes from, but she thinks it would be a weird question. Uzi approaches the Solver and asks, "You're good?"
"I'm good." the Solver replied. "Probably the most disgusting thing I will experience once in my lifetime. But it's weird. I shouldn't be able to vomit." Hearing that, it just adds more questions on Uzi's head. "So then where does all this flesh come from?"
Just as both of them thought, something is moving inside the box full of vomit flesh. They both look with curious faces as they slowly approach the box where suddenly the box moves and flipped over, spilling everywhere.
The spill just caused Uzi to clean the floor, but what's more surprising is that the thing that was moving resembles a core- Solver Core. It looks just as much like Nori but the difference is the eyes are red. Just as Uzi was about to pick it up, the core turned around.
It looked at Uzi while asking, "Uzi! Where am I!"
"Wait... Doll???"
It then cuts back to N, V, J, Thad and Lizzy as they are all in the spaceship, sitting in a circle. N then ask, "So... what do you guys want?" Thad then said, "Well... practically nothing. We just got bored in the bunker all day and we figured why not visit you guys." "Yeah. Plus I haven't talked to you for a while V." Lizzy added.
"Wait. Talk about that, I haven't talked to Uzi for a while too." N said. "Then let's go and visit her." V suggested which N agreed immediately. J on the other hand, thought to herself, "Do I have to visit her and say sorry?" Quickly she was interrupted by V's shout, asking whether J is going to.
"Yea V. I'm coming." Lizzy then said, "Uurgh we just got here, now we have to go back?" Thad turned back and said, "Come on Lizzy. I want to talk with Mr.Doorman (aka Khan) about the exploration of the planet that he's been thinking about. Lizzy then without any protest, just follow suit.
"Ok fine. I'm going."

"Doll? How are you... still...-"
"Alive? Turns out, I don't know. Now tell me where we are?" Doll ask, demanding answer, even though it's kinda... obvious where she is right now. The purple ambience in the room with a bed, doesn't that seem obvious by now?
"You're in my bedroom dumb. Also don't you try to mess up my room." Uzi replied with a slight harsh tone on Doll, which makes her more annoyed than listening. "Fine. As long as that thing doesn't harm anyone then I'm good." Doll pointed at Uzi's tail, indicating the Solver.
"First of all, this is not Cyn. This is the Solver. It means no harm. Second, don't you ever try to attack me, N or V ever again." Hearing V, Doll gets a bit mad and jumps on Uzi's desk and says, "Don't make me do it Doorman. If I see her again, I will rip her core apart!"
"Bite me you won't-" Her words were cut off when Khan entered the room with Nori, still a core on top of his head and looked at the vomit on the floor. Doll decided to hide behind Uzi to make sure to not get caught.
Khan then said, "Uzi. We heard a very loud noise in your room and gosh... eww... you should clean whatever that is." Nori then said, "Yea... that smells so bad. I can't hold it any longer."
Hearing Nori's voice, Doll jumps on Uzi's head, revealing herself and asks, "A-aunt Nori? You're alive?" Uzi then interrupted "Doll what are you doing? You should be hiding." But hearing what Uzi say makes Nori shocked. "Doll! It's you!?"
Back to Thad and Lizzy as they were running back to the bunker, Lizzy spotted something unusual. "Hey Thad! Come here for a bit." Thad then stops and runs at Lizzy and asks, "What's wrong?" Lizzy then pointed out at what she saw and Thad looked at what she was pointing, shock.
A green liquid puddle was seen on the ground. It was far but it emits light that they can see as far as around 100 meters. Thad and Lizzy try to get closer, but also maintain distance as they don't know if there's any harm to come.
"What is that?" Thad keeps asking himself while Lizzy like usual, takes some photos for more information. "I don't know Thad about this. I've never seen this before." Both of them were confused as they realised something, THEY NEED TO GO TO THE BUNKER!
"Without any hesitation, Thad and Lizzy run straight to the bunker, leaving the green liquid puddle behind. But as they ran far from it, they didn't realise that the green liquid was slowly descending under the ground, leaving no trace behind.

According to the reports, this unknown green liquid seems to have its own mind. This could be proven because it ate everything that we send down to investigate, from cameras to even drones. After that, we decided to label it as 'Revlos'.
Taken the name after the Solver that Cyn acquired to destroy the Earth, Revlos seems to behave like the Solver, but its intention is still unknown. Whether to find out until we figure it out or we all die before it will be achieved. It's just..... unpredictable.
But for now, this is all I will send to you, JCJenson Cooperation.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Back at the Doorman house, Uzi was seen lying on the couch alongside Khan, Nori and Doll. They all were drinking, assuming oil and after they finished, Nori asked Doll some questions. "So Doll. Do you remember anything when your core ripped off?" Doll responded "I've been in that tail for a while so, of course I remember."
Doll wanted to mention that Cyn ripped her core but decided not to tell them, even though Uzi knows it. Nori said, "That's not really surprising if you still remember it just that-" Like usual, they have all been interrupted by a doorbell. Uzi then opened the door and N was outside.
"Uzi! I haven't talked to you for a while! What're you doing?" N grabbed Uzi and swung her high up. Uzi, feeling dizzy then said, "Ok N. Please put me down N please." N then puts her down and sees everyone else. "Oh. Hi Khan, Nori and uhh....." N keeps pointing out at Doll which Uzi replies, "It's Doll N!"
"Oh right! Yeah." N was relieved but then he realised something. Just as he was about to ask Doll them V and J walked in, waving at everyone including Doll which V and J would never think about. Doll, instantly saw V, lunge at Uzi, climb at the top of her head and said while holding her Solver, "Ready for round two?" Hearing that, everyone is shocked, including Khan and Nori.
V, instantly recognised the voice, said "Oh you again!" V was ready with her blade, attempting to slice her off, but before she could do that, N come to the middle and said, "Come on guys. We don't need to fight guys. We already went through a lot of things. Can we just not fight at all?"
V agreed, but Doll said, "Fine. As long as she doesn't annoy me." Doll then jumped off from Uzi's head and went back to the couch. Uzi, N, J and V, still annoyed, went to the couch and sat. Just when Nori asks, "Soo... it's just the three of you?" Khan then said, "Wait. Let me grab some drinks first."
N then said, "Wait. V, J, do you guys see Thad and Lizzy anywhere?" V and J then realised that they lost Thad and Lizzy. "Wait where are they?" V asks J, which simply replies, "They are probably just on their way here. Surely they'll be here in a matter of time." N, without thinking much, ask Uzi.
"Hey Uzi. You're very good at computer coding right?" Uzi then replied, "I mean sure N. What is it?" Hearing that, N wants to take back his words but he thought for himself, when would be the other chance he has. Plus they are all at the house right now. N then bravely said,
"Can I have a Solver too?"
Hearing that, everyone went silent. To be honest, everyone was surprised, but Uzi is confused. "You want what N?" Uzi wants N to repeat his question back, to which N repeats back. Before Uzi wants to say it, Nori then ask Uzi. "Is that even possible?"
"If the humans can get mom a Solver, then I'm sure there's a way to get N one too. Besides, we don't have to worry about Cyn anymore." Hearing that, N was a bit happy while V and J probably wanted to take this as an opportunity... maybe.
Then finally, Thad and Lizzy arrived, looking exhausted. Thad then said, "Hello. Are there any refreshments?" Khan then said, "Sure kids. Come inside. Take a rest first." Without hesitation, both of them went inside and sat down.
Thad and Lizzy were very exhausted and Lizzy ask Uzi. "Now why are there two crabby cores now?" Doll immediately jump on Lizzy and said, "Don't you ever call me that!" Hearing that, Lizzy ask. "Wait Doll? Is that you?" Doll replied with a yes and Lizzy immediately took a picture of Doll which Doll annoyed so much. "Classic Lizzy..." she thought.
J then asks "So why are you guys late?". To which in time, Lizzy replied, "We found something strange outside, so we went to it and see if you guys had seen it before." Lizzy then showed the picture she took earlier and everyone was looking at it, concerned.
Uzi, N, V, J and so does Khan never seen it before but Nori on the other hand said, "I feel like I've seen it before but I don't remember if I do or not." What Nori said truly adds more questions amongst them. What could that be?
Tired of thinking the same question, Uzi asks N. "Hey N. So... about your question, I doubt it will work but we can try." N is happy as he heard that and that's when V and J ask if they can get the same thing N wants. Uzi agreed, but there's one rule, and that is Uzi will be their admins and Nori would be as a backup.
"Ok fine. I hope you won't do anything stupid girl." J replied and Uzi, N, V and J went to Uzi's room while Khan, Nori, Doll, Thad and Lizzy stayed outside. Khan volunteered to send the WDF to check it out first but Nori replied, "Don't! We don't know what danger that thing will bring, so it's better to stay away from it first." Thad and Lizzy agreed with Nori.
After a while, Thad and Lizzy decided to leave and say goodbye to Khan, Nori and Doll. After they leave, Khan decides to go to bed while Nori goes to her room to find information. Nori quickly went there and dug all of her stuff to see if she found anything.
Doll, standing outside the room, ask, "So what are you looking for, Aunt Nori?" Nori went to Doll and replied, "I'm trying to find any information about that green liquid that Thad mentioned. I'm sure I know it but I don't remember it. Guess being a crab has a disadvantage eh."
Doll had a lot of questions regarding that green liquid and she asked, "If you sure do know it then how bad is it that you have to dig your stuff here in the first place?" To which Nori replied,
"Very bad."

Congrats for reading this long :P
Chapter Text
"Let me see what I can do..."
Uzi said to N and the others in the room. Uzi sat on her chair, grabbing her computer and turned it on and got things ready. Uzi then asks them "So... who's going first?"
"Me! Me! I'm super duper excited." N yelled at Uzi, demanding to go first. V said, "Anything to make N happy I guess...". N then grab an object with a red exclamation mark by Uzi, similarly when Uzi hacked into their memories and put it on his head.
"N, are you ready?" Uzi asks N which he keeps nodding while V and J stand beside him. It's true that if you want something, you have to take the risk, but others might be worried about you. "Don't worry about me. I'll be fine.". Uzi was about to press a button then she said,
"Ok. Here goes nothing."
After Uzi presses the button, in the blink of an eye, N's system is shut down immediately and displays an '><' on his visor, indicating that the hacking process is done, but there's still more to go. V and J grab N and put him on the floor in a sitting position. J then asks Uzi,
"How long it's gonna take? An hour?". To which Uzi replies "I don't know. It depends on how long it's going to take, and even if it's gonna be a success or not. At least I will try." V and J then sit on the floor, next to N's motionless body while Uzi was trying to get N a Solver.
Uzi started by putting a string of code, presumably the Solver string and once Uzi's done, she said, "If the code works and once N wakes up and tests it and it works, I just need to copy it and put it on you guys.". Uzi pointing at V and J.
The computer screen shows progress '1% complete'. "So now... we wait." said Uzi. And they wait...
and wait...
and wait.
It's still 1%-
Meanwhile, Thad and Lizzy were at the dock area, where they talked with the door guard, Ron. They asked Ron if he saw anything out of the ordinary and he said, "Well... in the past few hours, nothing out of the ordinary happened."
Lizzy then said to Ron, "If you see anything, then just text me." Ron nod. Ron then glanced outside and said, "So you said that it's some sort of... green liquid stuff-" "Yes that's what we meant. We already tell you like... 5 times now?" Thad interrupted, to which Ron was shocked.
"Ok ok sorry. Just to make some clearance." Ron said, which Thad and Lizzy made a sharp eye contact with him, adding nervousness to Ron.
Back to Nori and Doll at the closet where Nori is still finding evidence of anything related to the green liquid that Thad and Lizzy mentioned before while Doll is just... standing there.
"Are you certain that you know about it, Aunt Nori?" Doll ask and Nori replies with a yes. Doll again then ask, "If you do know it then it should be easy to find it, it's not like this closet is huge, or maybe you just know it but didn't write it at all."
Hearing that, Nori turned around and said, "Maybe you're right then. Perhaps going to the labs might find some answers to this." Whether or not Doll would be agreeing with Nori's idea, but she hated that place anyway. After all we know what happened to Doll down there.
But soon, with enough convincing, Doll finally agreed. Nori then asks, "We might go there tomorrow, plus Uzi and the DD's still in their room, Khan sleeping and the kids are probably up to something.
Doll said, "I'm ok with that. It's already night time so I'm going to sleep anyway." Nori then said, "Ok have a good night." Nori then closed the closet and went to her room and slept.
Back to Thad, Lizzy and Ron where they were, as night comes, they need to sleep... except Ron. He's tasked to do the night shift because it's his day to do so. Before Thad and Lizzy left Ron out alone at the dock area, Thad said to him.
"If you see it, then tell us immediately ok?". Ron said yes then they left to sleep, leaving Ron alone...
and alone...
"Alright. Time to keep my eyes peeled and spot whatever they mention." Ron, with eyes wide open, ensures that he will not fall asleep guards the dock area while at the same time observing the outside to see if he finds anything strange.
As time passes by, hour after hour, it hits the limit where Ron starts to feel sleepy. He thought to himself, "Maybe a couple minutes of napping should be fine...". Ron then sat and then took a quick nap. It wasn't until he started having a weird dream.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ron woke up, screaming as he rushes to the door and observes outside, looking completely normal. As he was completely delusional, someone grabbed his shoulder and shouted his name.
"Hey Ron. Anything you see-" Lizzy's question was cut off by Ron's scream. Thad and Lizzy were confused by that scream. Did they scared Ron so bad? They ask Ron "Is anything alright? Did we scare you?"
Ron then said, "No.. no. It's just... umm.. weird to see you guys this early. I mean... it's 6:30 a.m. so... it was unexpected you know...". Ron tried his best to give an excuse. Thad and Lizzy went "Ok....." but felt skeptical about Ron's excuse. Why was he scared about it? Is there anything that Ron didn't tell them?
Back to Uzi, V and J as they woke up and looked at the computer screen where it says '98% complete'. J stood up and said, "It really took a whole night just for this? It better be working." V then said "Agree. I waited for this.".
Uzi then said, "Well it's not guaranteed to work 100% but-". They look back to see the computer screen shows '100% complete'. At the same time, N finally wakes up from his unconscious body, feeling a bit dizzy after the whole ride.
"N! Are you ok?" Uzi rushes to N, holding him, followed by V and J as they put N on the bed. "Yeah I'm fine. Wait! Did it work?" N suddenly asks Uzi if the whole process works to which Uzi says, "We have to test it first." Uzi then walks to her desk and grabs her oil juice box.
"N! Catch this!" Uzi, without giving any signal throws the juice box at N. N, without any preparation, tries to catch it with his hand, closing his eyes, but...
something happened.
The Solver was working. His hand shows the Solver symbol. V and J just amused looking at it since it was yellow while Uzi was very happy that it worked. "It worked!?" N opened his eyes and asked himself. Uzi came to N and said, "It worked! All that waiting for the whole night."
N then ask everyone "Wait is it that long?". Uzi, V and J rather do not want to talk about it until then V said, "So if it works, then copying it to me and J wouldn't take a long time right?" Uzi said yes and V decided to go next. After an hour and a half, it's J's turn. Seems like they were so happy about it.

According to the previous report, 'Revlos', the name that we give to that unknown green liquid, swallows everything we tried to. Drones, cameras, you name it. But I heard from some of the higher employees that they want to try to send a drone with full Solver control that we've been experimenting on.
We know there's a lot of them. 002, 019, 031, 044, 048, 054, 059, 067, etc. There's more of them but there's just... a LOT you know. But the higher employees haven't decided yet tho. Regardless, I think they are down with this plan, since they haven't tried this before.
But yeah.... I think that's it for now, JCJenson Cooperation.

There's a reason why I want N, V and J to have a Solver.
Chapter 6: Dream Come True?
Chapter Text
Back in the dock area, Thad and Lizzy were talking with Ron about his weird behaviour just now. They decided to sit down and ask him some questions.
"So... Ron. Why are you so... scared just now?" Thad ask. "It's not like we haven't come here this early before. Is there anything wrong?" Lizzy added. To which Ron replied, still looking traumatising.
"I... I... umm... alright. I'll tell you guys ok? But please don't be weird about this!" Ron said to them before he started to say his dream. "Is it really that bad?" Thad asked. Ron replied with "It's not like that. It's like... you guys probably won't believe it."
Lizzy replied, "Ok whatever Ron. You tell us first then we decide if we want to believe it or not." Ron then said, "Ok fine." Ron then finally starts explaining his dream to them, hoping them to believe it.
"My dream was very terrifying. I woke up with dead drones all over the place. There's like.... hundreds of them! I feel like I was in a graveyard or some sort." Ron stopped for a moment while Thad and Lizzy persuaded him to continue, finding it more interesting than they thought it would be.
"I then walk around, only to find more dead drones, but this time, green liquid that you guys mentioned are covering the entire place the further I walk. At first... I thought it was real, but then I heard something..... something that sounds like munching."
Chills running down Thad and Lizzy's system, despite being just a dream story, but it quickly turns into a horror story. "And then, what happened next?" Lizzy asks Ron while Thad nodded. Ron then replied, "I then tried to find where the sound came from and I found someone.... someone familiar....".
Ron began to sweat virtually. All three of them felt like the air was thickening. "So... who was it?" Thad and Lizzy both ask the same question. Ron then said, "I..... didn't get to see it. All I remember is that it was a black figure in front of me. And that's the end of it." Thad and Lizzy finally sigh in relief.
"It's ok Ron. It's just a dream. Don't take it seriously. Perhaps you're just tired after the whole night shift." Thad said. With that, Ron said, "Alright alright..... maybe you're right, but I still feel skeptical about it ok?" Ron tries not to think much about it, since Thad was right. Perhaps he just need to rest.
After a while, Nori, Khan and Doll arrived and greeted them. "Hey there kids. What are you guys doing sitting over there?" Nori asked them. Khan then said, "Thanks for the shift Ron. Now can you help me do some door maintenance?" Hearing that makes Ron a bit pleased. It was his favourite job anyway.
"We... were just having a good chit chat right..?" Thad hit Ron and Ron kept nodding, which Nori said, "That's... what I thought of." Lizzy then asks, "So what are you guys doing here anyway?" Doll replied, "We want to go back to the labs to find more clues about the green liquid that you and Thad mention. But we decided to go to the camps first beforehand."
"So basically that calls me to follow my bestie...~" Lizzy teased, which annoyed Doll. Thad then replied, "Can I go too? I haven't been there for a long time. Plus I haven't really done anything for a while." "Sure why not?" Nori replied.
Khan then said, "So Ron. You're helping me to do some maintenance ok?" which followed by a yes. Before Khan and Ron leave, Thad then asks them, "Wait. Where is Uzi, N, V, J... Where are they?" Khan then said, "They were in their room. You know, Uzi's trying to-"
"Teach them cool powers!" They all then see Uzi appear frantically behind Khan and Ron followed by N, V and J. "Let's get this started!" N shout with excited. It gets more surprising that all of their right eye turn into the Solver symbol for a split second.
"I don't know if I should be happy or not." Doll said. "At least it works! You don't know how long it takes." Uzi replied back. Everyone else was amused, and Lizzy took a picture while saying, "That's my bestie right there." Khan then said, "Ok girl anything is cool for you. But don't be late, or there will be punishment."
Khan then opens the door for everyone and Uzi, N, V and J go outside. Uzi then said, "Don't worry dad. I won't be late. I promise." And with that, they fly off the distance, leaving them.
"So yeah... anyways we're going to the camps. Follow me!" Nori and Doll went off to go to the camps. Thad and Lizzy suit follow them, leaving Khan and Ron at the dock. "Let's get the maintenance done. The others are probably waiting for us right now." Khan said to Ron and they went inside and closed the door.
Back to Uzi, N, V and J as they're flying around to find a good place to train N, V and J their new Solver. After quite a while, they found a perfect spot. "So I guess here it is." J said. Uzi then started grabbing some metals, big and small ones as she instructed them to be ready.
"Alright guys. When I throw this metal at you, you guys need to catch it using your new Solver ok?" N was excited while V and J get serious ready. Uzi then start throwing some small metal first since they want to start slow and steady. At first they caught it just fine, since it was easy.
But as they progress, from trying to do teleportation until all the way to dodging big metals using that ability, and of course it was thrown by Uzi. Uzi asked them, "Are you ready?" They all said yes so Uzi throws the big ones to them. At first they dodged with ease.... until it hit N of course.
The impact was so strong that N actually flung over far away. Uzi without hesitation flies to N's direction while saying, "N! Wait for me! I'm going to get you!" V and J then proceed to follow. Uzi then arrived where N was, apparently at the corpse spire. As Uzi approaches N, she asks, "N, are you ok?"
N replied, while still lying on the ground "Yeah I'm fine don't worry. And actually, it was fun being flung by you." N awkwardly laughed and Uzi said, "Ew don't say that!". Uzi then helped N to stand up then V and J arrived. V asked N, "So using the Solver was fun isn't it?" To which N replied, "It was fun but it's hard..... but I'll get used to it!"
"It's ok N. We can try again." Uzi said. "You actually did really well alongside them." J then said, "I hate to say this but... I have to agree with Uzi here. You did really well compared to me." V agrees with J. Hearing a compliment from J is something that N almost never believes in. In fact, so did everyone else. "That's... not what I expected from you." Uzi said.
"Wait Uzi. I have something to ask. Why don't we get to train about that 'Null' thing?" V ask and Uzi replied, "I don't know how exactly I would teach you. And even if I know how I won't teach you guys either." V then said, "Alright fine. I'm happy anyways. By the way, where's that 'Solver' thing on your tail?" J then ask.
Which Uzi again replied, "It doesn't want to speak anymore, since it's just a mere part of me. Here, let me show you." Uzi's tail then popped up but with purple eyes instead of yellow. "See? I can't even call it to come here. It's more like a... program rather than an entity... at least that's what the Solver said to me."
As they were all beside the corpse spire, talking about the training and possibly doing it again tomorrow, before they were about to take off and leave, V saw something. "Umm... guys.. what's that..?" They all turned around at V. "What's the matter, V?" N asked. "That." V pointed at a specific direction and they all look there only to see
The green liquid.
Meanwhile, Nori, Doll, Thad and Lizzy were at the Cabin Fever Camps, searching for any clues or info about the green liquid before they went down to the labs. As they were progressing, they ended up meeting each other.
"So... have you guys got any info yet?" Nori asked and they all said no, showing no progress. They all sigh and Doll said, "It's ok though. We already covered a quarter of the cabins here. We should be able to find at least some." They all were a bit confident when Doll said that, like a burning fire just got lit up.
They all then split up into 2 pairs with Nori and Doll, Thad and Lizzy. They begin searching all cabins. From left to right, they try their best to find at least a bit of info. It then focuses on Thad and Lizzy being in one of the cabins.
"Hey Lizzy. Find anything?" Lizzy then said, "Nope. Not yet. How about you?" "Me neither." Thad replied back. They keep talking while looking for some info about the green liquid. As they were talking, a paper flew down from the ceiling fan and fell directly in the middle of the room.
Lizzy saw it and grabbed the paper which Thad asked, "What is that?". Lizzy then said, "It fell from the ceiling fan." "What does it say?" Thad ask again. "I'll read it." Lizzy then reads the paper while Thad listens to her.

#Log 3051-12-24 Now Playing (Narrator On)
The entity that we called 'Revlos' is taking advantage of the drones that we sent down there. It just... eat them like it's nothing. I'm sure you already know that but uhh..., that's not the point of this log.
The main reason why I'm writing this is because the higher employees decided to test it on Solver drones, specifically 059.
We started by sending 059 down below and observe. And we'll see how it goes. We will make sure that we are prepared because anything can happen, especially with Solver Drones.
To make sure we are extra prepared, the team is already trying to make a cure, in case anything happens. With that said I'm ending this log here. I'll update it once we have some progression.
We hope that nothing bad happens..... JCJenson Cooperation.
Regards from your staff.

After reading the paper, Lizzy and Thad said in unison, "We have to tell Nori and Doll now!" They then rushed outside to find Nori and Doll.
Chapter 7: In The Past, Nori...
Notes:
Hello everyone :). How's your day? Boring? Sad? Your parents scolded you? Well don't worry. This chapter is quite long so... enjoy! It focuses on Nori and Doll.
(See the end of the chapter for more notes.)
Chapter Text
Thad and Lizzy then run as fast as they can to find Nori and Doll, but since there were a lot of cabins, and there weren't any signals in the area, it's hard for them to find Nori and Doll, plus Lizzy can't use her phone.
"Wait Thad! Wait!" Lizzy stopped and gasping showing tired. Thad turned back to Lizzy and said, "Lizzy there's no time to rest. This place is massive and if we keep on resting we won't find them for minutes... or even hours."
Lizzy replied, while still gasping, "It's easy for you to say that. This is not something I'm okay with. Just give me... time please." Lizzy then sat down and Thad without wanting to say did the same while thinking to himself, "Guess I have to wait here with her for a while."
The scene shifted to Nori and Doll as they were searching in one of the cabins and as they were doing that, Doll asked Nori a very interesting question.
"Hey Aunt Nori." "Yes?" Nori replied back then said, "What?" Doll then ask Nori "Do you like... remember what my mum used to be like? I kinda.. want to know about her more since... you know." Nori then turned around to Doll and said,
"You mean... Yeva? I mean... your mum is exactly like you. Quiet, don't talk much, you name it. She's almost like you. " Doll said to Nori, "I would've probably guessed that since Uzi took a lot of your personality too. Do you... remember back during the.. lab days?"
"The lab days?" Nori questions herself, then says "Okay fine. But we'll keep searching while we have a chat. Deal?" Doll then says "Deal." Nori and Doll keep continuing searching while Nori talks about Yeva and her past.
"Back in the lab days, me and your mum used to be one of the humans favourite drones. Since me and your mum were one of the earliest to almost have a stable Solver, humans view us as successful experiments compared to other drones."
"And... because of that, me and your mum usually will be the first to be tested on, primarily with Solver stuff. And like I said, we almost had a stable Solver. So that usually means... most of the time it failed, and overtime, we tried to stabilise our Solver."
Doll then ask Nori a question. "Well. There should be more Solver experiments other than you two right?" Nori then said, "Well it depends. Sure some of them do manage to work, while others are... quite unsuccessful. Like Alice for example, one of my close friends after Yeva."
"Why do I think I heard about Alice for a second?" Doll thought. "Uhm... anyway... what's next?"
"After like a dozen drones that are successful, we were forced to be an experiment involving trying to stop Cyn from coming to this planet. I remember at that time Yeva was very scared she even held my hands in fear." Nori chuckled a bit at the end.
"And that time is the first time I know about the crucifix, aka the patch. Even though it sounds less harmful, Yeva and I decided to go last because we want to see the others take it first. But the humans decided to use one drone every two days, which is weird if you ask me."
"But what's weirder is that originally all of us that have the Solver are included. But when the counting came, we were missing like one person..? I don't know, but it is weird, because after that we haven't seen the drone at all. I don't remember the number ID though..."
Doll said, "Well if someone disappeared surely the humans know where that drone is." This is where Nori says, "That's the point. I asked the humans, but they didn't answer me. And here is where I started playing with the sentinels! They're too cute to be scared of!"
Doll immediately flashback herself when she tries to kill Uzi and the others during their way to the underground labs. "Oh. Those things..." Nori asked Doll what she was thinking about, but Doll immediately said, "Nevermind."
"Anyway... you might be asking, why do I play with those sentinels? That's because I secretly planned to force the humans to tell me about the missing drone, so while I wait for my turn, I try to train the sentinels to follow my orders."
"And that one day, when I thought I was ready, I asked Yeva if I was ready enough, but she said no. But you know who I am! I ignored Yeva and went straight to the human's office. Riding the sentinel was fun... until it misbehaved of course." Again, Nori chuckled at the end.
"I still remember that Yeva tried to stop the sentinels by asking Alice for help but it got worse. In the end, Yeva uses her Solver, which according to the stupid laws, we shouldn't. And..... yeah her eye blew up."
Doll said "That must be painful to bear with. I feel that." Nori then said, "Yeah it was so painful that oil was spilling out from her eye. In the end, all three of us got detained for 3 days. But what makes me mad is that I don't even get a single answer from my question."
"Ooo... that's bad if you ask me." Doll said. Nori then continues "Well of course. After days and days, it's finally my turn to get that patch they said. I ask Yeva if it's painful or not but she said that it's painful a bit but it'll healed eventually. And that's where this story gets more darker."
"When I was about to get the patch, my vision gets blurred and then it turned to pitch black. After I woke up, I saw everything in DESTRUCTION! I'm holding a black hole, a FREAKING black hole. I can't stop it and Yeva was in front of me. Knowing that I have no choice, she cut my hand off."
Doll then said, "Actually I was thinking... how did you even meet Khan and my father in the first place?" "Listen here. I didn't finished the story yet." Nori said.
"After she cut my hand off, as you may know, the core exploded, wiping all the humans and flung me and Yeva all the way to the surface, which turns out to be this camp. We were stuck under the pile of snows until Khan and the others arrived. When I ask them they said that they went to check what happened."
"And then they helped us and we took a picture together. The end." Nori ended her interesting but long story. "Are there any more questions?" "I.. don't think I have anything to ask. Thank you Aunt Nori for the story." Doll replied. "No need to thank me. I was thinking of telling this story when you guys are adult enough."
"Speaking of the end, why are we not finding any clues!? It's been more than two and a half hours already!" Nori said then Doll replied, "What's spinning in my mind is that what are Thad and Lizzy doing?"
Shortly after, Thad and Lizzy meet them at the cabin, looking exhausted. "Oh there you are." Doll said. "Quiet Doll. Do you know how long it takes us to find you two?" Lizzy said. "Okay Lizzy. Anyway, did you guys find anything?" Nori asked.
"Yeah we did. Here! Take a look." Thad give the paper they found earlier to Nori and Doll. After quite a time to read, Nori said, "So this is what the humans thinking about? So the green liquid you said was true after all." "Yeah..." Lizzy replied.
"And this was supposed to be my answer!? Not only I remember it's 059, but also I waited this for 20+ years!" Nori said to them, specifically Doll. "What bothers me is that, the green liquid does have a name and it's called 'Revlos'. Interesting..." Doll said.
"Yeah that kinda surprised me a bit. If it has a name then it's an entity right?" Thad said. "I supposed." Nori said. "Is this the only clue you have?" Nori ask and Thad and Lizzy said yes.
"I think it's too late already. We should go back and take a rest." Doll said. "I'm kinda tired already so I agree." Lizzy said. "Of course you are!" Thad said to Lizzy. "Before we go-"
Suddenly they felt the ground shakes a bit. "What was that?" Thad ask. "I don't know but I don't think it's a good sign." Doll replied. "Let's just go now. We can figured out tomorrow." Lizzy said. "Yeah. Let's fetch Uzi and the others. They're probably very tired right now too, unless they already went back." Nori said.
"Agreed." They all then walked back to the bunker, unaware of what they would witness next.
Notes:
The next chapter will be focusing on Uzi, N, V and J :).
Chapter 8: Green Liquid
Notes:
I'm not really good at writing fighting scenes so bare with it ;)
Chapter Text
"Eww.. what is that..?" J asked. "So... I assume that's what Thad and Lizzy were talking about before. That thing." Uzi said to them. V tries to get closer to it but N stops her. "What N?" V asked N. "We should wait first. We don't know what that thing is, and what it can do."
J went to N and V while holding her gun out. "I don't know if I want to wait until that green thing is gone, N. I need to go there now!" Uzi also went to them and said, "Just wait, J. I don't think it's there before. It probably be gone soon. Should we... wait for the others to come or not?"
Then all then discussing among themselves. "Okay how about we just ignite it on fire?" J said. "What do you think, J? You think that's oil?" V said back to J. "I'm just giving a suggestion V." "But that suggestion doesn't make sense at all! We don't know what it's made out of." V said.
"Guys! What about if we just stick to the original plan and wait for Nori and the others first? Besides, we don't know what that is. After all, maybe they know what that is now, since they're going to find answers." N stops the quarrel and gives his suggestion to them. "I... have to agree with N on this one. Let's just wait for them." Uzi said.
J said, "Don't tell me you agree with him just because he's your...." "Bite me J! Not because of... that! It's just because... he's right." Uzi said back, while stiffing. "I think I'm okay with this." V suggested following N's idea. J, with no one on her side, said "Alright fine. As long as it won't take long."
Uzi said to J, "It won't take long... hopefully." And they wait for Nori, Doll, Thad and Lizzy to arrive at them, hoping that they know some answers to what this green liquid could be, and what's potentially dangerous about it.

To: JCJenson Headquarters
It's Christmas day so... a new log style. I'm just making this short log to inform you of one simple... thing. Not because I want to take a break. It's something... different.
As far as we know, the entity, Revlos, behaves like the Solver. Yes. It's sort of an AI like the Solver but unlike the Solver, it does not talk... maybe. And since I, a normal client who's just here to do my job as the log writer, I am one of the first to be alerted with these types of news compared to other clients.
And before I forget, the team lost 059's signal. We don't know what happened to the drone. After we sent 059, its signal vanished after a few minutes. Of course the team leader was very frustrated. He's a bad temper guy you know.
I remember that one of you guys asked, how do we know that Revlos exist on this planet? If so why didn't we tell you guys sooner?
Listen carefully, higher ups. I actually don't know at all. So does everyone else here. The one that discovered it was Dr Olsen, our team leader. Even so, he didn't tell us how he found it. Might as well just ask him instead.
Sincerely, ???, Client

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After quite a few hours of waiting, J couldn't wait for them anymore. She wants to get to the corpse spire, but as mentioned the green liquid blocked the path. "I'm tired of waiting anymore! It's just a goop. I'll just fly above it." said J.
"J wait!" V shouted but J didn't listen. J then flies above the green liquid and not to her but everyone's surprised, tentacles start emerging from the liquid and lunged at J, but she dodged it. "I told you J!" V said to her.
But soon they realised that J's action woke up behind the skins of the green liquid as more green-ish tentacles started emerging and attacked all of them. "Looks like we have a problem here..." N said.
One of the tentacles slammed into them but they managed to dodge it and they quickly revised a plan. "J. You try to lure the tentacles to you since you're the fastest while me and N shoot it. Uzi will attack the base of the tentacles. We got this." V said to everyone.
"Got it." The others said and then they executed the plan. J flies through the tentacles to try to get its attention. "Hey you. Catch me if you can...~" That gains the tentacles attention and starts chasing her. While at the same time, V and N try to stay apart from J and shoot at the tentacles. "J! Just keep flying while we shoot at it." N shouted at her.
While J, N and V are doing that, Uzi slowly approaches the tentacles base. Uzi didn't want to get the attention so she went slowly but closer to the base. As she hid under a couple piles of snow, she said to herself. "Looks like I'm here, tentacles. Once I cut your base, the game's over."
She was about to cut it, but,
What she doesn't know is that the green liquid is secretly looking at her, almost as if it has eyes spying on her the entire time. Before she could even cut it, another tentacle emerged and quickly stabbed behind Uzi, almost like a syringe. Like a normal person's reaction, Uzi moans in pain. "O-ouch! I've been hit!" she said.
J heard Uzi's scream and she looked down at her and said, "Uzi! Let me help you- GAH!" Before J could get down, the tentacles managed to grab her and slam her down to the ground. "J! Stay there- AARGH!" V and N got grabbed and were also slammed into the ground, right next to J as they were all looking up at Uzi.
"Uzi..! Use your Solver to cut free!" N shouted at her but Uzi weakly said, "N. I... can't... m-move..." As they hear what Uzi just said, N tries to get free by trying to use his Solver instead. "Please please! Just get it to work." is what N thought but it was too late.
Suddenly, the green tentacle that stabbed Uzi slowly glowing green which is not only a bad sign for them but also hurting Uzi in the process. Uzi, struggling to even move can only groan in pain as it's getting worse and worse. N, desperately trying to get his Solver work while V and J didn't even think about it.
It wasn't long until a familiar Solver appeared and then cut the tentacles that were holding N, V and J. Then, another red Solver appears and cuts the tentacle that was stabbing Uzi's back and a powerful railgun beam shoots at the tentacles base, liquefies the green liquid and it vanishes into the ground.
As Uzi was freed from the stab, she went into safe mode and self rebooted and fell to the ground. N quickly approached her and said, "Uzi? Uzi! Wake up Uzi!"
"Don't worry N. It's just that her system self rebooted, probably because of the injury. And now she's in safe mode." Nori said as she, Doll, Lizzy and Thad, who was holding the railgun came to them. "Glad that she's okay." N relieved.
"Nice shot there kid." J said to Thad which he blushed and said, "Don't thank me. It was N and Uzi who taught me how to use it. You should thank them too." "Don't thank us Thad. You did that without Uzi and my help. You did that on your own." N said to him.
"Now let's get back to the bunker." Doll said and everyone else follows her. But before that, V asked, "How did you guys know that we were in trouble?"
Nori replied, "On our way to the bunker, we heard a very loud noise so we decided to go fast to the bunker. But after Khan said that you guys weren't there yet, we went outside to find you guys." "And I'm glad I bought the railgun." Thad said.
"Anyway let's go. Before anything else comes to eat us all." Doll said jokingly and jumps on Lizzy's head. "Let's go Thad. We have work to do after the whole day." Lizzy said to Thad. "Okay okay Lizzy." he said.
V and J tell N to bring her to the bunker, which he gladly does. N then carried Uzi, which is still in safe mode in his back while whispering to her. "It's okay Uzi. Get well soon. We're gonna wait for you okay." And off they all go to the bunker.
But what they don't see is that off the distance, the green liquid was looking at them. But it isn't just 'them'. It was specifically looked at Uzi before they were off from its sight. After that, the green liquid then disappeared into the ground, never to be seen again... for a while.

It's been a few days since our team had heard any news about 059, until recently when we finally know why.
We, the team decided to do a very risky task, which we went down there ourselves, and we found that..... the green liquid was nowhere to be seen. Not even a single trace. But we do find 059 in... safe mode somehow. That usually rarely happens so we don't know what happened. At least that's good news.
Our team has put 059 in a medical room with a couple of scientists to monitor it in case anything unusual happens. The team will make sure that Revlos will be in control. We promise. While the other team is busy trying to stop the Solver by trying to do a test on drones, Dr Olsen once said to me he wants to do something different.
And also, Dr Olsen said that he doesn't want to hear the same question again and again. He said to just trust him with the way you put him in charge. He also said that he will handle this and he will make sure that this experiment was a success.
He always calls himself too ambitious, but almost all the time, he always sits on the chair and we have to do the job. After all, he contributed a lot in this company, so I can't really counter back him.
Deep into my thoughts, I have actually started to get a lot of suspicion on Dr Olsen. I might go crazy thinking about this. Just... give me a week break. I need to refresh myself.

No more logs anymore! I'm tired of this, that, everything! I don't want to be part of this anymore! I'm retiring. Whatever that 'Revlos' thing was, all I know is that it damaged 059's code system. They say memory is corrupted, hardware and software lost. Just..... anything that happens after that is beyond my responsibility. That's all!
And also, don't ever-
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
N was looking at Uzi's motionless body which he does this every 6 hours. He said that it would at least cheer him up a bit.... at least that's what he feels. Suddenly, N heard a noise and he turned around to see Nori peeking through the door. Before Nori could close the door N asked her.
"Miss- Nori! H-how long do we have to wait for Uzi to..." N asked Nori which she went silent for a while. "I'm..... not sure yet... but it depends on how bad the damage is. Sometimes...... it could take days." Nori said while entering the room. N went quiet as he stared at Uzi's motionless body with her 'safe mode' displaying across her visor.
"Umm... N. I think we should leave her for a while. I mean... the others are worried about you too." Nori said. "I know. Just that....." "Losing someone sure was painful but usually losing someone will make you stronger. I'm sure Uzi doesn't want you to be sad all day." Nori said to N.
After quite a while, N decided to leave the room followed by Nori and everyone else was waiting in the living room. "Finally you leave the room. It's been hours." V said. "Yeah. We were worried about you." Thad added.
"I know. Sorry about that." N said to all of them. While everyone else was talking to each other, mainly with N, Nori and Doll went aside and had a discussion between each other. "So finding clues in the cabins isn't enough. Should we go to the labs instead now?" Doll ask. "If we were to go there we can't go with a lot of people." Nori replied.
"That's understandable. If so when are we going?" Doll ask. "How about tomorrow?" Nori asked back. "Alright." "Good." Nori said and then they turned back to all of them. "Listen! We have something to say." Nori said, which everyone turned silent and look at her.
"So... me and Aunt Nori have decided to go to the labs tomorrow but in one condition. We're only going there by ourselves and not anyone else. Is that okay?" Doll said to everyone. "Certainly I don't mind at all. And I can guess N would say the same thing." V said while side eyeing at N, which he stares back.
"I don't care about it anymore. I'm tired from the last one we've been through." Lizzy said. "Go figure." Thad said. "I don't mind at all sweetie but please be careful..." Khan said to Nori, telling her to be safe. "Don't worry... I know the labs at the back of my head." said Nori.
"Wait. I'll go with you!" J said, making the entire room quiet. "Going there alone with the two of you is dangerous. Plus you were just tiny cores." Nori and Doll look at each other then Nori said, "Fine. If you were going with us, you'd better listen to us. Especially me." "Fine whatever rules you want." J said.
"So it's a deal?" Doll ask. "I guess....?" J said. "Great." Nori said back. "If there's nothing left, I want to go to sleep." said Lizzy with Thad saying the same thing. "Come on N. Let's go sleep. We'll come back here tomorrow." V and J said to N which N turned to Nori and she nodded. N then said "Fine. I'll go." And the three of them went to sleep. Later followed by Khan, Nori and Doll.
The next day, they were all at the dock and J, Nori and Doll were preparing themselves to go to the labs. "Me, J and Aunt Nori will go to the labs, but we won't be sure if we're going to come back here today, so expect us to come tomorrow or the day after." Doll said to all of them.
"It's okay. Take your time." Lizzy said to Doll and then Nori said, "We'll promise to come back here with some answers! Off we go J!" And there goes J, Nori and Doll go to the labs then followed by the door shut. Khan then said, "Well kids. Looks like you still have to go to school..~" Khan teased.
"Oh robo god I forgot about school!" Thad said and ran towards the school direction followed by Lizzy. Khan just teases the laugh seeing Thad and Lizzy run to school while N and V look at them. V then ask,
"Now what will we do?" Khan then said, "Well... since you guys are practically doing nothing other than wandering around and waiting for your oil snacks so..... why don't you just help me with some maintenance checks?" "Maintenance checks..? Sounds... bland." V said.
"It's actually more than checking which I'm sure you will like. Plus you have a spaceship right?" Khan points to both of them. Hearing what Khan said, V agrees and she asks N, "N you're coming?" V look at N, seemingly thinking of a decision to make.
But the real thing is, N wasn't even thinking about it, nor did he actually listen to what they said. He keeps staring at the floor thinking about Uzi's condition right now. Perhaps it's the best time to see her since Nori and Doll went to the labs and he-
"N! What's taking you so long?" V slapped N, forcing him out of her pensiveness. "Ouch! Uh-.. uhh... what V? What did you ask?" "I am asking, do you want to come with us to do some maintenance checks with Khan?" V said.
"Uh-uhh... umm... about that....." N tries to say something other than he didn't hear anything for the whole time. He'd be screwed if V knew it. "Y-yeah I'm coming." N said then gives a thumbs up.
"Nice. Then follow us." V said to N and they went to Khan, going to the maintenance room for regular checks. It's the WDF's duty to regularly do that, so Khan wasn't complaining at all. But what N and V don't know is that there are other drones doing it, and one of them is Ron. "Hopefully he's not complaining about them." Khan thought.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile, on another side…………………………
Uzi's visor displayed 'MEMORY OVERRUN' and the text was replaced with her 'so not usual' yellow purplish eyes. Uzi woke up, coughing oil as she looked around her to see red skies, as if just started an apocalypse. "W-what... where am I...?" she asked herself. Then she heard something come from a distance.
She runs in the direction she heard, only to stumble on a big explosion that somehow didn't affect her... at all... in any way. She covered her eyes as the explosion was so bright white. After it was gone, she opened her eyes back, looked around and saw what she wasn't supposed to see..... ever.
Herself. Uzi saw herself, lying on the ground with oil spills everywhere. She also noticed the tentacles that she saw what Cyn was supposed to have. Not only that, she went closer only to see her visor displaying 'FATAL ERROR'. All of that then Uzi realised, "Wait.... is this..... the..... fight.....?" Uzi asked herself while looking at her hands, covered with oil.
Uzi gasped and before she could touch her 'supposed' herself, the world around her glitches and turns into a lab. A big lab. "What? Where is this? Why does the interior..... the ambience... look familiar..?" Then Uzi looked at what she would never imagine she would see.
Humans
She saw humans. Walking around the lab presumably doing experiments. Uzi knows that all of this was just a projection but seeing humans for the first time ever makes her jump. Before she could say anything, she heard a voice, which was the Solver's voice she hasn't heard in days.
"U-Uuuuuuzi.... can you h-hhhhear mmme?" the Solver spoke to her while it's voice glitchy. "T---there's an entiiii-----ty inside y---yyyyyour systtttttem!" "Y-yyyyou hhave to wwake uuup!" Although Uzi can make up what the Solver said, she was confused as on what the Solver was talking about regarding 'entity inside your system'.
"W-what do you mean...?" Uzi asked the Solver which it replied, "En......entity................system...........it's name.......... is-" The Solver's talk abruptly ended, as if it was turned off. "Solver...? Solver? Are you there?" Uzi ask the Solver, but nothing but silence gives her. Until, a voice speaks to her, but it's not the Solver's usual monotone voice, instead it's a very rough and serious one that Uzi has never heard before.

Back to the Cabin Fever Labs, J, Nori and Doll arrived at the lab entrance. They look down first for safety. "Doesn't change much since I went here." Doll said. "Looks safe to me." J said and straight away brought Nori and Doll to the underground labs and they landed.
"So here we are. What are we here again?" J asked. "We're here to find information about that green liquid or it's name, Revlos, that attacked you guys before." Doll said. "And we believe that there must be more information down here in the labs." said Nori.
"Right....... but where do we go first?" J asked while pointing at multiple directions. They do take note that the labs are very, very big and its layout alone can make you lost. Almost guaranteed. "We have to think wisely here. One wrong move and we're done." Doll said.
"We should all just stick together so no one gets lost." J said but Nori added, "Excuse me. I've been in the labs for decades before you are even here in the first place. I know this place well. Maybe even better than some humans perhaps!"
"So you're saying that we should split up?" J asks Nori if that's what Nori was trying to say to her. Nori looked at the side and said "N...no. That's not what I meant at all. You guys haven't been here yet, if yet it's only once. There's more than what you're looking at right now."
"Can we just... not quarrel here and focus on our motive?" Doll said to them as she was bored listening to their small quarrel. J and Nori look at Doll then look back at each other and J said, "Fine. We can talk about this later. Come on. Which way?" J asked Nori and Doll.
"I think we go that way." Nori said while pointing in the direction. "Alright. Directions on you ma'am." J said and they went in the direction Nori pointed.
Chapter 10: Drone 059's Fate
Chapter Text
"Aaaaaannnnd..... we're here!"
Khan said to N and V as they arrived at the maintenance area. It's a very busy place where drones took shift in maintenance in order to keep the door functional. Even if they probably don't need it anymore, harsh weather outside and rust still makes it not an excuse.
"Oh hello there sir." said a couple worker drones around as they saw Khan there, alongside N and V. They might be nice now and not too hostile like the drones assumed to but they do still intimidate a little bit by N and V, considering they're disassembly drones.
N and V noticed the drone's behaviour, but they just simply don't care at all, instead they just follow Khan's back to a specific area. "Soo... is this where we are going to work?" V ask. "It's quiet..... and silent here. You sure it is Mr Doorman?" N ask.
"Yes I'm certain it's here! You guys will now be working with me for maintenance. Also it's not just you two." Khan said. N and V don't know what Khan meant by 'not just you two', but their question answered as someone familiar walking towards them, it's none other than Ron.
"Oh hey guys. Hello sir." Ron greeted them and shook hands with Khan. "Ron said he was quite lonely here all alone, adding that he's getting nervous every time he comes here he said." Khan looks at Ron while he just nodded in frowned. "So that's why I put you two here. To accompany him."
"Y-yeah I've been kinda lonely and no one to talk to soo...." Ron said. "Anyways have fun with your new job! Make sure to teach them Ron! I'm counting on you." Khan said then leave the area. "Don't worry sir." Ron said, then turned to N and V.
N said to Ron "So Khan said you were alone here. But usually weren't you the one who would've been one of the-" N was shutted by Ron, leaving N confused. "I know. There's a reason why I want you guys to come here. Follow me." Ron said then walk in a direction followed by N and V.
They soon arrive at one of the top floors of the bunker, which also includes the vents. "So... after Thad and Lizzy mentioned the green liquid, and I had a weird dream that night, something..... gone wrong. Multiple vents start to break down, which isn't normal." Ron said.
"But I don't want to find out if something, or someone was causing this. Perhaps it's just a harsh weather perhaps..." V then ask, "Oh yeah the next morning after that, Lizzy said you were talking about your 'weird dream'. What is it about?"
"Yeah. I heard about that too. You don't have to hide it from us you know. Come on, tell us." Ron didn't want to tell them, but knowing N, he had to. He then said, "Alright..... Maybe I should tell you guys first but please don't be weird about my dream. It's about...................."

"W-what??"
Uzi was scared, not knowing where the voice comes from just gives her more worries. She looked around and she tried to make a guess on where she was at, in this ̷d̷r̷e̷a̷m̷.̷
"Okay..... I'm in the labs I suppose... I see humans aaaaaannnnd..." Uzi stopped when she heard a voice, a crying voice, desperate for help. Uzi then saw two humans carrying a trolley with a drone on top of it, presumably female, tied up.
"LET ME GO YOU HUMANS!" said the drone while trying to escape, but then she got electrocuted. One of the humans simply replied, "You can try as much as you want, 059. The rope is strong enough not to break. One more time and it's electrocuting... again. Plus, Dr Olsen wants you, not me."
Uzi noticed that the drone had a lot of magnets on her head, similar to Uzi being put on magnets by Alice before. "So she's a Solver drone. What would they need her for?" Uzi asks herself.
Uzi continues to follow them, simply watching as the humans brought 059 she supposed to, to someone named Dr Olsen. "Who is Dr Olsen? And 059.... could it be like the same drone that was experimented like my mum?" Uzi thought. As she was following the humans, she heard another one of the same voice.
̷F̷o̷l̷l̷o̷w̷.̷.̷.̷
At first Uzi stopped, thinking if she should follow what the voice says to her, but her curiosity and answers made her follow. "Screw it! I need answers!" Uzi thought. She catches up to the humans until they stop at one location, labeled 'The Chamber'. They opened the door and it was a very large room.
Uzi was surprised because in the chamber room, there were a lot of scientists, fully equipped with some sort of medical equipment. Just then Uzi were about to say something, she heard someone talk to the drone. The human wore a lab jacket, black tie and a mask that's quite different from other humans.
"Hello there, 059. How's your day?" said the human, revealed to be Dr Olsen himself. "You..... let go of me right now!" 059 demand, but her demand is ignored by Dr Olsen. "I want you here because I need you to do something." 059 was confused. "What do you want from me..?"
"You see that hole over there?" Dr Olsen pointed at the hole, which is inside the chamber. "I want you to go down and find something for me. Then I'll let you go." He said again.
"What am I supposed to find down there? As if down here wasn't enough." 059 asked, which Uzi is wondering the same thing. Dr Olsen just replied, "It's a green, oozing liquid and it's very noticeable. Shouldn't be that hard am I right?"
Hearing 'green, oozing liquid', Uzi froze in shock. She knows what Dr Olsen meant. It's the same one that fought Uzi alongside N, V and J before, and Dr Olsen wants to send 059 down there? To what? Fight it? Questions flooded Uzi's mind. But she stopped when 059 replied,
"I guess so." Dr Olsen then said, "Good. See? It's not that hard to agree on. Release her." The humans then untied the rope and 059 went inside the chamber. Uzi tries her best to stop 059 from going into the hole, but all of that was a waste since all of this was a past.
"Here I go." 059 then went down into the hole while the scientists kept monitoring. Dr Olsen and his men watch from a distance. Dr Olsen then said, "Once 059 finds the green liquid, it will be the most powerful weapon we've ever created! JCJenson will surely be very happy with my achievements."
All the other humans just clapped their hands after their leader said that. Uzi, not wanting to stay silent, decided to jump down, to find 059. It was a very deep hole, but eventually she landed on the ground, but this is where she thinks she saw one of the most horrifying things on this planet.
A wide sea full of green liquid was illuminating the entire area, bright enough to see your future... except it's a bad one. Uzi without wasting time searching for 059 and she found her, but it was already too late.
059 was stabbed behind her back by the green tentacle, similar to Uzi during the fight. Her visor also shows 'WARNING! UNKNOWN ENTITY!' while she moans in pain. Her audio is barely hearable but Uzi can make what she says. She needs help, but unfortunately, there's no one to help her, and Uzi can only watch as 059 stumbled down.
Uzi, in horror, tries to get close to 059 to see if she's ok, but suddenly 059's body starts to twitch in a horrific way. Her hands start to bend, her head is backwards, and other things Uzi couldn't make a word of.
As Uzi sees 059 standing up back, her eyes weren't the blue eyes she used to have but instead, it's dark green with her right eye being the Solver symbol but more modified. Uzi stood in horror as 059, perhaps not her anymore, unknowingly but impossibly, speaking to her.
̷"̷D̷o̷ ̷y̷o̷u̷ ̷h̷a̷v̷e̷ ̷f̷u̷n̷ ̷w̷a̷t̷c̷h̷i̷n̷g̷ ̷t̷h̷e̷ ̷p̷a̷s̷t̷?̷"̷ Uzi's heart froze. It was the same voice that tells her to follow into here. "W-what....!? How do you-" ̷"̷E̷a̷s̷i̷e̷r̷ ̷t̷o̷ ̷s̷a̷y̷,̷ ̷t̷h̷i̷s̷ ̷i̷s̷ ̷a̷ ̷p̷a̷s̷t̷ ̷o̷f̷ ̷w̷h̷a̷t̷ ̷s̷o̷m̷e̷o̷n̷e̷ ̷h̷a̷s̷ ̷b̷e̷c̷o̷m̷e̷ ̷a̷n̷d̷ ̷w̷h̷a̷t̷ ̷y̷o̷u̷ ̷w̷i̷l̷l̷ ̷b̷e̷c̷o̷m̷e̷ ̷i̷n̷ ̷t̷h̷e̷ ̷f̷u̷t̷u̷r̷e̷.̷.̷.̷.̷.̷"̷ It said.
Uzi is out of words. She stepped back in horror. She doesn't know what it means by 'what you will become in the future', but she knows it would be a very bad thing. Before Uzi could say anything, it said, ̷"̷I̷t̷'̷s̷ ̷a̷ ̷p̷l̷e̷a̷s̷u̷r̷e̷ ̷t̷o̷ ̷m̷e̷e̷t̷ ̷y̷o̷u̷,̷ ̷f̷u̷t̷u̷r̷e̷ ̷R̷_̷H̷O̷S̷T̷_̷U̷Z̷I̷.̷ ̷B̷u̷t I have some work to do. Also, my name is Revlos, I suppose."
059's eyes turned back to the usual blue colour, but Uzi knows it's not 059. Anymore. Then suddenly, the ground shook. 059 then starts laughing while climbing up to the labs to do some 'work'. Uzi, knowing the consequences, starts trying to wake up.
"Come on come on! Just... wake up already!" Uzi struggles to try herself, her eye shows the Solver symbol, try to force wake her up. While Uzi was desperately trying to, she could hear screams from above. She didn't care about it, as this is just the past.
After countless times Uzi tried, finally everything started glitching and then everything went black. While that happened, a message appeared and it said,
'DELETING : 3051-04-04.mp4'
'ARE YOU SURE?'
'Y/N'
'Y'
'DELETING...'
'WARNING! UNKNOWN ENTITY!'
̷'̷n̷o̷ ̷o̷n̷e̷ ̷k̷n̷o̷w̷s̷,̷ ̷i̷t̷'̷s̷ ̷j̷u̷s̷t̷ ̷y̷o̷u̷ ̷a̷n̷d̷ ̷m̷e̷'̷
