The past come back to haunt me

Me and Uzi were looking around the pod for anything useful. I'd checked around months ago, but another pair of eyes certainly couldn't hurt. She found a pin on the ground. A pair of wings, usually they were on a hat or something to signify who was the pilot.

Jack: I hadn't realized this fell off.

Uzi: Probably in the landing or something. N! We found something in here!

We heard N wake up. And by that, I mean we heard him scream and hit the ground. While we were waiting for N. Uzi lifted her hair off her right eye and looked in the mirror. I wasn't sure what she was doing. Then her eye changed. The mirror shattered, and then her eye was back to normal. I had to stifle a scream. How did she have that thing? I thought it wasn't used in worker drones. Maybe they put it into the newer models. To make them more self-sufficient maybe? Stupid JCJenson. Stupid. Uzi and V gave me a weird look, due to me conjuring a sound akin to that of a strangled chicken. I just gave them a smile and quickly turned my back to them.

V looked to Uzi.

V: Well that's weird and concerning.

Uzi: Bite me! This is probably you weirdo's fault!

V: I've never seen that symbol before. Want to do an autopsy to find out?

V's autopsy plan was cut short by N descending down the ladder into the pod. Uzi stuck the pin to his hat. She had to stand on a crate to actually reach his head though.

Uzi: Did you know that was a pilot hat?

N: I was the pilot? Thats aweso- I crashed and ruined everything.

He quickly rid himself of this realization by giving V finger guns.

N: Spaceship pilot! Origin story.

V, unsurprisingly, hissed at N very aggressively, before going back to blowing bubbles. I wonder if V would like cats.

N: Speaking of piloting to earth, are we sure that killing all humans is uh, morally correct?

Jack: I've had my own concerns about that. Not the morals, just that I am human.

Uzi: Humans sent you without a communication relay and reformatted your memories to soup. Also you're fine Jack.

Jack: Aw, good to know you care.

She just looked at me annoyedly.

Uzi: Bite me!

Jack: Only if you ask nicely.

She did not respond to that. I took that as victory. Uzi turned back to the comms panel.

Uzi: Covering their tracks means they're passed negotiating. Not like they tried negotiating with my mom.

Uzi crushed the wrench she was holding. I always forget just how strong the drones actually are. Considering what I know about Uzi, and the records I had on some of the worker drones back before the incident, I have a few suspicions on who Ms. Doorman might be. With the recent mirror shattering, I'm pretty sure I know who she was. And I have a pretty good idea of what happened to her. V flung herself into Uzi's face, pulling her chain taut.

V: Or maybe you missed the negotiations. The humans programmed us to solve a problem, where's proof of your backstory? The one where your kind is so conveniently innocent?

Uzi seemed scared of the Disassembly drone inches from her face, and then looked annoyed and N gently moved her behind him, and I lightly pushed V back into her seat. Meeting N's gaze, I knew we'd come to the same conclusion.

N: J was getting orders from somewhere. If not the company, I'm not sure who.

Uzi looked annoyed, and then leaned against N.
