(Hunter's POV)

"Pffft. What the heck?" it said in an amused tone.

Wait, that actually worked?

"Uhhh... i-if you liked it, I got more stuff like that.." I said with fear obviously in my tone.

"For real? Show me!" It said with excitement in its voice.

"Sure! Just please don't kill me..."

I proceeded to show her my entire collection of funny videos, all of which it found extremely entertaining. It was actually pretty obvious that she enjoyed them considering the fact the it watched all of them with a smile on its face while wagging its tail.

While the murder drone was watching every funny video I had archived inside me, I got to have a closer inspection on it. The murder drone seemed to be female, made kinda obvious by her higher-pitched voice, and uhhh... AHEM, other parts... THE LEGS, I MEAN THE LEGS!!! OH, AND HER LONG HAIR!!! Definitely wasn't referring to anything else!!! Totally.

Anyways, after a few hours passed, yes I have that many meme videos downloaded, we were on my last video file and fear began to overtake me again as the realization dawned on me that I was probably gonna die once we were done.

"Show me the next one!" she said while still excited.

I stayed silent for a good 2 minutes or so before responding. "Aaaaaacccctually, that was the last meme I had downloaded." I said with my entire body shaking.

"Huh?" she let out in confusion.

"T-that was all.. I got nothing left, I'm sorry..."

She was silent. For a few minutes, nothing was said between us. The awkward silence was finally broken when the murder drone let out a huge disappointed sigh.

"That was all..?" she said sadly before leaving a pouty look on her face.

"Y-Yeah, sorry..."

She let out another sigh before turning away and crossing her arms while still pouting.

"Ugh, watching those was really fun too.. They were literally the only thing besides killing that was fun. And even then, killing you workers is really starting to get boring, even your WARM SWEET oil's starting to taste bland..."

I back away and made an audible gulp when she said that last part, I don't think I need to state why I did...

"Oh, and that reminds me..."

Oh sh*t...

Her hands retracted into her wrist as a missile launcher took its place.

"Sorry little guy, but I kinda got a job to do." she said as one of her eyes turned into an X.

I let out a little squeal as I slowly backed away in fear. I closed my eyes as I braced myself for my fate, I never should've gone on this supply run.

...

...

...

Wait, I'm still alive?

I opened my eyes to see that she had retracted her missile launcher and taken her hand back out, which she placed on her chin as she hummed to herself, clearly contemplating something.

"On second thought, I can always re-watched those videos whenever I start to feel bored again." she murmured.

"Congrats shorty, you get to live!" she said as a smile stretched across her face.

"For real?"

"Yep, but only as entertainment for myself. Once I lose interest, you die." she added while still keeping her cheery expression.

"W-Wait, what do you mean?" I asked in slight confusion.

"Basically, I keep you as my pet that will entertain me until I get bored of you, in which case I rip you open and drink your robo-blood."

I stood there, neither happy nor upset about my fate, well actually, I was pretty upset. At least I get to live a little longer.

"Well, it beats dying I guess, besides, it's not like you're gonna give me a choice."

"Nope." she said with her expression still not changing.

"Well, if I'm gonna be your entertainment-"

"Pet." she interjected.

"that... I think we should at least get to know each other first. I'm Hunter, I like meme videos and building & fixing stuff. Traumatizing to meet you."

"Thanks, I'm Serial Designation S, but you can just call me S. I really like murdering and stuff, nice to meet you too."

Ugh... I was really really not excited about what was to come... At least I get to live, even if I'm gonna die if she gets bored of me.
