"Holy crap it talks." "Yeah...sorry it's just my head kinda hurts and" The Murder Drone then looks between the two of them. "Wait, are you two new to our squad? You're a little uuuh." The Murder Drone stares at Uzi for a bit as if he's trying to figure out what her deal was. "..Short for a Disassembly Drone, and you" The Murder Drone then turned to Gordon "you're...actually a pretty normal height for a Disassembly Drone'' (Authors Note, Gordon is canonically 5'10 while N is 6'6, just a bit of comparison for future use.) Gordon just stared, contemplating if he should run or hear the Robot out. After what seemed like an eternity of nothing the Murder Drone spoke. "I'm Serial Designation N!" The Disassembly Drone makes a small salute after stating his name. Gordon salutes back only for Uzi to elbow him in the stomach. "Nice to meet you people, I'm kinda the leader of the squad in this city. That's not true, everyone tells me I'm useless and terrible. Wait, I'm not supposed to tell you guys that part!" Gordon just looked at N completely confused. One moment this Robot was attempting to kill them both, the next minute he's talking like an innocent child. Gordon had no idea what to make of this and Uzi wasn't fairing much better. "Well Honesty is the best policy! I also can't seem to remember the past 3 hours of my life, but I'm sure that'll sort itself out." Gordon turned to Uzi as if to say "You hearing this shit?" Only to see her slowly backing away dropping the crowbar as she does. "Uh-huh...I, uh, have to go." She turns to leave only to wince at the pain in her hand Where N stabbed her with his tail. "Stuck yourself? Just pop it in your mouth. Our Saliva Neutralizes the nanites, otherwise I'd be constantly disassembling myself" He then catches his tail mere inches before it hits his visor. "And by our saliva you mean...Disassembly Drones?" The last part was both said by N and Uzi. "Right. Hey let's go into that landing pod over there." Uzi points over to the pod with her non-injured hand. "Sure I love doing anything!" N joyfully remarks as they both head towards the Pod. Gordon meanwhile has picked up the crowbar Uzi dropped and observed it carefully. Before he follows, however, he sees G-man once again observing from a distance. He watches as G-man straightens his tie and walks away. "Hey, other member! Are you coming?"

Inside the pod, Gordon has bandaged up his arm and is observing the Gun and crowbar he obtained. Meanwhile Uzi has her bad hand inside N's mouth to remove the acid. After a bit she pulls it out. "Uh, sweet I'm open to new things I guess," N replied awkwardly. "We're NEVER talking about this." Uzi angrily replied, wiping the saliva off her hand. "Talking about what? Uh, consider it repressed." Uzi rolls her eyes looking at Gordon who is watching both of them still holding his crowbar. Uzi, weirded out by the human's personality, turns back to N. "You uh, mentioned other members of your squad? Are they coming back soon? "Oh yeah there's two of them" N then tells Uzi and Gordon about the other members of the squad. (Author's Note: I'm getting really tired of just rehashing the original episode so I'm not writing the flashback segment down, if ya wanna know who they are then watch the actual series, dumbass) "Hey let me give you the tour! Outside are the corpse...wall...thingies, and these are the buttons' he begins playfully pressing the buttons on the computer making li'l beeping noises as he does this. Gordon still can't believe this robot tried killing him a few minutes ago. Before he could do anything however he realized something...He needed to take a piss. So he went outside to do so. "Uh, where's he going?" N asked suspiciously. Uzi looked back and forth figuring out what to say. "Uuuh, he's doing normal human-Disassembly Drone things." Uzi says, in an obviously lying tone. "Oh that seems completely reasonable and non suspicious whatsoever!" Meanwhile Gordon is currently peeing by a wall near the pod, before he hears something odd. He turns around to see two tiny specs flying in the distance. Gordon knew what they were and it wasn't good. He raced back into the pod, grabbed Uzi, and started running out. "Uh where are you guys going-" He wasn't able to finish as Gordon was too far away to hear what he was saying. Before he could keep going Uzi bit him in the arm causing him to drop her. "Wait a second, HUMAN!" Uzi replied, getting up. "Just because you helped me fight N, doesn't mean we're immediately friends. I still don't know who you are. For all I know you still could've brought more humans to enslave us again!" Gordon watched her not knowing what to do. Even if he could tell her, would she believe him? Gordon just looked sadly at Uzi as if to tell her "Where could I even start?" Uzi's face softened a bit. "Why don't you say anything?" Gordon just shrugged, after the resonance cascade Gordon has seen things...awful things, friends killed, homes destroyed. And when he was brought back things were only worse from there. Gordon could talk if he wanted to. But after everything he went through...What could he say? Uzi sat down next to him. "You've seen stuff haven't you?" Gordon was shocked at the fact someone managed to figure it out. Gordon turned towards Uzi, extending a hand. Uzi looks at it and back to Gordon "If you help me sort this out I'll help you get back to wherever you came from" They both shook hands, Gordon wasn't exactly sure how Uzi would be able to send him back but he might as well try. Just then in the distance N was approaching fast. Uzi noticed this and turned to Gordon, "Crap!" Uzi started running with Gordon catching up behind her. "If we hurry we can make it back to the colony!" Uzi pulls out a keycard of some sort as the two run towards what seems to be a giant metal door. Uzi puts the keycard to a scanner opening the giant door behind it was a group of other worker drones playing cards of some sort. They both turn to the open door complaining about the wind ruining their card game. "Bite Me!" Uzi exclaimed getting to the scanner on the other side of the door "Close it! Close it!" Finally the door slams shut. Uzi breathes a sigh of relief only for Gordon to tap her shoulder and point towards the door. The door was slightly wedged open with two large claws keeping it from being completely shut. Then two yellow eyes appeared from the other side. "Hey fellas! Oh deal me in, I love rummy! Wait no, I'm going to murder everyone. Rain Check!" N's tail quickly slides into the small opening quickly slabbing Uzis keycard sticking it into the scanner. The doors quickly open as N enters with a large yellow x on his visor. Gordon and Uzi quickly turn to run away with most of the other worker drones running as well. As Gordon runs he hears N swiftly kill a lone Worker Drone who thought It would be funny to correct N "Um, actually it's Gin Rummy, so-" All of a sudden bullets began firing from behind everyone Gordon and Uzi attempt to dodge them as a Worker Drone catches up to both of them. "Hey Uzi, I just realized no one's said my name out loud before, so im just letting you know I'm-Wait are you a hu-." Before he could finish he stops in his tracks, his entire body is split from the middle. As his body falls to the ground, explosions from N's missiles begin to fill the room. As They continue to run, Uzis ' railgun finally finishes charging and is ready for another shot. Uzi quickly turns around ready to fire, only for her to realize N isnt there anymore. Gordon is still running away only to look back to see Uzi has stopped a while back he turns around confused on why Uzi has stopped. "Pretty nice hydraulics huh?" Gordon turns around to see another worker drone, this one having a mustache, he looks up to see the chaos occurring and looks towards Gordon who's right in front of him, and then towards Uzi who has looked back when she heard him. "Wh-What have you done?" Uzi isn't able to reply as N swoops down from the ceiling behind Uzi, startling her as she turns around aiming the railgun at him. "This time I won't miss." N gets up chuckling to himself. "I'm sorry, I really enjoyed our time together but I can't have you shooting V with that thing." Gordon quickly pulled out his pistol aiming it at N's head. "Bite me! Dad Get down." Gordon looked at Uzi as if to say "That's your dad?" "Uzi...you led a Murder Drone here? AND IS THAT A HUMAN?" Gordon waved slightly to him. "Now is not the time! I messed up in the same way I'm about to fix this!" N quickly stabs Uzi in the abdomen with one of his wings, Gordon tries to go help but N aims his MP5 towards Gordon stopping him in his tracks. He may have a weapon but a pistol isn't enough to take on a Murder Bot. Uzis tosses the railgun towards Gordon and Her Dad. "Dad...point and shoot" Uzi weakly tells her dad to save her but instead he nervously backs off. Uzi looks at him heartbroken. "Dad.." Gordon, realizing Khan isn't doing anything, quickly picks up the railgun about to fire it only for The doors to quickly close.
