9. Whats best for you. ☆

POV: NARRATOR

You stood silently as you awaited for N and Uzi to come back. Jeez what was taking them so long?

You decided to speak with V, hoping to make the air less awkward. "So... I heard you're not too fond of Uzi?" You spoke out only for your conversation to be shut down instantly.

"Look.. you seem..— nice, but I'm not trying to be all buddy-buddy with you." V replied coldly.

You nodded and went back to silent only with more tension in the air than before.. oh how awkward.

Thankfully N came back before the tension got so sharp it could cut like a knife.

"Where's the tinnier freak?" V inquired and raised a brow.

"Uzi had to go back to the worker drone base! She said something about school!" N smiled widely.

You glanced off to the side. The memories of yourself eating a worker drone corpse still haunted you. You couldn't imagine that was you. It wasn't! I couldn't have been.

"Y/N you okay?" N asked in a concerned tone. That seemingly brought you back to the point now.

"Yeah.. I'm good." You nodded. You were still trying to process this whole situation, what did you have to do with any of this?

N smiled at you again before looking over to V "Also V! I found those things you asked to retrieve!" N smile before dragging two human skeletons inside the disassembly drone pod.

You followed behind V, curious as to what V wanted with these skeletons?

As the three of you settled in the landing pod, N put the skeletons down before looking over at V "I do wanna be dapper.. But no!" N said dramatically as he raised an arm across his face.

N sighed before speaking again "That's why you had me find these? We can't interact with the workers anymore V." N murmured as he looked down.

"We're too dangerous." N admitted with a somber look across his screen.

You wanted to comfort him oddly, even barely knowing most of this situation but then V responded.

"Uh, exactly? We show up fabulous, the sad purple one lets us in— 'cause she has no friends— we kill everyone and pop her little head off." V smirked mercilessly.

"I'm not freeing you for prom murder, V!" N argued back. "J went holo-spooky-snake-crab, and we maybe grew up in a haunted mansion!" N exclaimed before walking over and out one arm on the chair V was chained to.

"Aren't you worried we have no idea what we even are?!" N shouted with anger and a hit of worry in his tone. V then pushed his face away annoyingly before turning around in the chair, facing away from him.

You could feel the tension between the two and decided not to intervene. You could cause more discourse and that's the last thing you wanted to do.

V's eyes had contracted anxiously. She then spoke to N "Promise me you and that purple thing will stop prying into that stuff?" V murmured in a different tone before continuing.

"If you free me now, I promise we'll only kill what we need to survive. Just you and me, N." V huffed. It was obvious she didn't want to just kill what she needed. She must've been a sadist or something. Her eyes returning to normal.

You followed their eyes to look at a key, that means that was the key to unlock the chain holding V down.

N hesitantly inhaled and spoke anxiously. "Uh... V, if you're hiding something, we can figure it out together." N paused, letting V look down as her eyes contracted once more.

"Even if we each only have pieces. Please, what do you kno—" N tried to continue before V sliced his head off making him fall back.

You tried to react, but V had cut off your head as well before you could say anything.

V stood in front of you both her wings were out of hiding and she had freed herself somehow. "What's best for you— even if you hate me for it." V took two fingers and quote on quote "salute" the two of you before flying out of the landing pod. The chair she was chained in spun once from the air she put off.
