From A Place Called HATRED - A Murder Drones and Co fanfic

28 - "Audace, Peur et Phobie."

Uzi was laying on the grassw hugging herself, repeating herself that this is just a dream, that she can just snap with her powers, that she's just in another bad dream, she was hyperventilating, she became more and more human without her knowing because of her power, but flesh shall never harness her shell and body, only blood.

she only saw black and white, lumine and space hadn't returned yet, Hakita and Blossom were away to treat potential victims, first Basil, then L?

this couldn't continue, Uzi had to get up.

on her visor she saw a red...red? colors? she saw a red haired girl, a bit tanned, golden eyes, a white streak, red and brown clothes. holding a weird object in her hand wich glowed bright orange

???-"Are you gonna lay there? what is making you so anxious?"

Uzi-"I-i dont know- is-is it the thought of l-losing people?- w-why cant i get up-"

???-"Stop having an episode and get up at once, jeez, powerful people really need to go emotionless for them to do something for once."

Uzi-"W-what are you saying-" she held herself more, at the border of crying

???-"...just burn a page. your own page."

Uzi continued to cry, she thought about it, burning a page? wich page? she looked at her gloves, unburnable. she continued to cry and hold herself, she felt fire in her heart, her mechanical, firey heart.

her fire heart.

she cried and cried

seeing things she couldn't fathom seeing

she started to hold her head and scream, smashing the ground with her fists, her head, each times was faster, harder, stronger, and laced with a firey rage, the rage of a monarch who has been robbed of his belongings.

the earth shook that day, a bright pillar of light elevated in the sky, the sky glew a black and pure orange fire

Uzi was complet'y black, fire orning her body, as an aura, or coming out of crack everywhere, her visor was a slate of full orange brightness, she spoke no words, she was burning, burning with the desire to set a whole country ablaze, so she walked a desperate and slow path, the road, with the heat produced, every step was slow due to the ground melting under her foot, her clothes soon burst up into flames, she was a drone, she had no worries about being naked.

she then vanishedw leaving a circle of fire in her wake

???-"I, Lyllian Keyton, shall judge your unwinding." she says, smiling before looking at basil, she rammed her clockwork key into him, the basil coughed blood out, wow. a gift from heavens.

L, J, N and T were getting tested and identified in the terrorist base, they were aware of the pillar of fire shown on tape, but the dispatch team that should have arrived has yet to respond.

the base's main door were blasted open, melted even, uzi walking slowly with intense and heated rage, blasted any guards she saw into a bunch of burn dust, she kept on going, she slammed down a door, rempaging through the first ring.

she saw glimpses of L on picturesw their houses and more information about them, this set uzi off, fire was not enough, she could just...g i v e u p.

she fell down, and distorted, she turned half white and half black, no visible features, no shadows, she held two swords, on her white half, she held Darkheart, the sword of pure darkness, and on her dark side, Illumina, the Sword of Periastron's radiance.

she quickly and flawlessly got rid of everything in her path, no matter what the sword was against, the sword cut it, no matter who, no matter how, she even gorified, mutilated and destroyed many organic, mechanic, or technological personnel.

then she arrivee at the main basew she was already up to fight drones made from data and codes from her friends, she didn't think twicew cutting two out of three up

one held its hand out

L-"Hold my hand..."

Uzi...dropped her swords..in her distorted state...and went to hold L's hand, before turning him into a bunch of light and black bubbles.

she looked at the camera, she knows.

she then spun, using her swordsw freating a black tornado
the base was reduced to dust, shz opened a barrel of oil and poured it on the bodies of her destroyed friends
they slowly healed, she undistorted and fell to L's feet

L's first response was to put his coat on her, N, T and J slowly woke up, and decided to fly back with uzi in their arms back home, Hakita, Lumine, Space and Blossom were already ahead and rebuilding the houses

Uzi woked up with a major headache that way, she was shocked to see basil alive, aswell as L greeting her

she also felt safe...inside L's warm jacket.
