Have fun <3
Uzi exited rest mode upside down, her tail supporting her weight as she hung from a light fixture. Unwrapping her tail, she opened her wings and floated down towards the center of the mall she had been using as a base for the past few days. Landing on her stilted legs, Uzi was about to exit the mall when one of her sensors picked up the faint but unmistakable heat signature of two workers inside of one of the stores. Slowly turning and beginning to smile, Uzi faced towards the shop where her sensor indicated they were both located. She had the satisfaction of seeing one of the workers duck out of view with their heat signature increasing when she finished her turn. Uzi's smile grew even larger as her eye lights flickered into an X.
Settling into a hunting stance she slowly stalked forward until she stood right in front of the stand the two workers were hiding behind. Switching her hands into claws Uzi grabbed the top and slowly pushed herself over and stared down at the two workers and let out a little giggle of sadistic glee and said:
"Hi~"
The workers looked up in terror, eye lights hollowed. One of them seemed female with pink eyes and blonde hair, the other seemingly male with green eye lights and a red cap. Both seemed familiar but Uzi pushed that away as she jumped over the stand and used her clawed hand to impale the blond on the wall, one of her claws going directly through her core.
"LIZZY!"
Yelled the other causing Uzi to look over at them as they turned to run away, before he could get very far however Uzi morphed her other hand into a submachine gun and fired one shot cleanly through the back of the fleeing workers head. Turning back to the blonde Uzi pulled out her claws, oil dripping from them, and let the body fall to the floor. Holding up her hand to her face she stared at the black substance coating her blades, it seemed to call to her and before she could form a thought one of the claws had found its way into her mouth.
The moment the oil touched her tongue Uzi nearly collapsed with pleasure at the taste, blush lines forming on her visor. The taste was... Addicting. It made the taste of everything else she had ever tasted seem bland in comparison. Reaching for the body-
"UZI!"
Jolting awake Uzi stared at the door of her room to see a very annoyed Khan Doorman standing there.
"Get up and get ready for school and come to the table for breakfast."
Sighing, Uzi pulled of her blanket and stood, walking over to where her shoes were Uzi glanced into her mirror. A combination of purple and yellow stared back and the silver at the roots of her synthetic hair stood out like always. Supposedly her eye lights had been an even split when she was a UNN but as time went on her even gradient was slowly overtaken by purple until only a small amount of yellow remained at the top of her eye lights. Stepping out of her room Uzi pulled on her beanie concealing the silver where her dye had faded on the wig she was wearing. Although purple wigs weren't that hard to find the majority of them were terribly made and the only well made one in the bunker belonged to Doll. Of course using her superior intellect Uzi had come up with the solution of finding a white or silver wig of high quality and dyeing it purple which had of course worked out quite well (other than having to reapply dye every few days.)
Moving down the hall Uzi stopped by the kitchen and grabbed a bowl and put some batteries inside. Sitting down at the table Khan glanced up and scowled at her outfit before looking back down at his work papers.
A few tense minutes of silence later Uzi finished her batteries and stood up. At the sound of her chair scraping Khan glanced up again before looking back down and ignored her as Uzi turned towards the door and walked out.
. . .
Entering the main halls of the bunker Uzi made her way towards the school section of the bunker. As she walked she did her best to ignore the side glances and muttered insults of the bunkers older and sometimes younger residents. Finally reaching the section of the bunker designated as the school, Uzi made her way to her locker but was stopped just before reaching it by Lizzy and the rest of her idiot group.
"So when are you leaving to go live with your actual family hmmm?"
Lizzy needles at Uzi who was attempting to shove her way through. Finally succeeding Uzi opened her locker and put her bag inside responding:
"For the last time Lizzy just because my eyes are partially yellow does NOT mean I'm related to the murder drones."
Before Lizzy could respond Thad walked over and spoke up.
"Liz I don't know why you even bother with Zi, she isn't worth your time."
"Yeah yeah whatever Thad, just wanted to ask the freak a question."
Signaling the rest of her group Lizzy walked off towards class with Thad following. Grumbling, Uzi grabbed what she needed for class and started her way toward it.
Entering her class Uzi took her seat near the middle of the room. Sitting at his desk, trademark bored expression, sat their teacher Mr.Vickers. Uzi liked Vickers, not because they were a good teacher, or because of anything they did actually. Instead precisely because they did almost nothing, unlike her previous teachers who had gone out of their way to treat her with contempt and actively insulted her.
"Alright class... Today we will be learning about the 26th century and the consequences of the collapse of the United States on the rest of earth. Open to page 442 and read until you reach the end of the chapter..."
His voice drones on as he leaned back into his chair. Instead of doing that (why five hundred year old human history on a planet twelve light years away was relevant was lost on Uzi) she instead pulled up the schematics for her sick-as-hell railgun and got to tinkering.
. . .
The bell wrung signaling the end of the school day.
"Remember class, homework presentations are the day after tomorrow..."
The rest of his sentence was lost as the noise of everyone starting to chatter with each other all at once drowned him out. Grabbing her things Uzi made her way back towards her locker. Opening it and grabbing her bag Uzi turned around to leave but was stopped by Lizzy.
She jumped over the stand and used her clawed hand to impale the blond on the wall, one of her claws going directly through her core.
"Hey freak, I'm talking to you."
Uzi snapped out of her daze to see Lizzy less than a foot away from her scowling.
"Bite me!" Was all Uzi said before shoving her way past the blonde and moving down the hall.
"God your mom probably hooked up with a murder drone and left you with poor Khan after dropping you too many times. No wonder Khan hates you." Lizzy called after her.
Hearing those words made Uzi freeze.
Turning back to the blonde Uzi pulled out her claws, oil dripping from them, and let the body fall to the floor.
"...OFF ME YOU FREAK!"
Looking down Uzi realized she had jumped at Lizzy and was holding her to the floor by the neck with one hand, the other raised in the air, a crack visible on Lizzy's visor next to her hollowed eyes. Looking at her reflection Uzi's own eye lights hollowed realizing that instead of the usual 90% purple 10% yellow, her eye lights were now the exact opposite ratio only slowly receding to their original coloration. She had just enough time to register all this before being yanked off Lizzy by Thad who quickly crouched down towards the blonde and started comforting her. Uzi saw his mouth moving but it seemed like no sound was coming out as she stumbled to her feet.
Grabbing her bag, she slowly started walking, the other students gave her a wide berth as she walked away from the school towards her "home."
. . .
Entering her room Uzi walked over to her work bench and sat down. Groaning she thought man I'm going to be in so much trouble... Resting her head on her desk she had only a few seconds to contemplate before her door slammed open causing her to jump.
"UZI DOORMAN."
Wincing Uzi slowly spun around in her chair to face Khan.
"Do you have ANY idea how much trouble you've caused me?!?"
"A lot?" Came Uzi's meek response.
"They almost kicked you out of the bunker, I had to pull SO many strings and call in SO many favors it will be a miracle if the other department heads will ever listen to me again! As it is the school suspended you for tomorrow, so don't bother waking up for schools tomorrow. Actually don't even leave your room tomorrow, I don't want to see you until you go back to school."
Turning back around Khan nearly stomped his way out before closing the door. Uzi was about to turn around herself when she heard the buzz of her door being electronically locked. Although she could open it relatively easily with her skills at hacking the message was clear enough.
"Well fuck you too I guess." Uzi commented before finally turning around and grabbing the frame of her sick-as-hell railgun and working on the finishing touches.
Uzi stood on nothing, nor was there anything around her that she could see, only her own body and clothing was visible.
"Where am I?" She called out into the void, noting that she was likely outside somewhere outside due to the lack of an echo.
"You are nowhere. And everywhere. All at once." A robotic voice responded. Uzi jumped and whipped around to see another worker drone dressed in a maid outfit. Staring into the others eye lights which were the same yellow as the yellow part of hers, she felt a shiver of fear and most of her CPU started screaming to run hide escape, anything to get away from...
"W-who are you?" Was what Uzi said instead of running.
The other tilted their head and stated:
"Head tilt. I am Cyn. Do you really. Not remember us? Questioning tone."
Once more taking stock of the maid drone in front of her Uzi still felt the same fear but something else bubbled up, Familiarity and... Warmth?
"No? You seem familiar but..."
"That is. Unfortunate. Once you remember. Us. More. We will talk again. Goodbye."
"WAIT!-"
Exiting rest mode Uzi sat up taking her head off the work bench to admire her creation. Smiling she recalled working on it the entirety of yesterday and the night before non-stop before running falling unconscious and
Uzi frowned, there was a corrupted section of her memory files where there should have been the blank section of a rest mode cycle. The only thing she could recall was eye lights the same color as her own and the work "family."
"Was that...?" She muttered aloud before a shout sounded outside her room.
"UZI! I unlocked your door so get out of here and go to school."
Groaning Uzi picked up her bag and started towards the door, but before she got opened it an idea came to her. Walking back over to her work bench Uzi picked up her railgun and said while smiling widely:
"We do have a presentation today after all..." Then she put it into her bag and opened the door.
