(Uzi's Perspective.)
I've been wondering through these bloody sands for five straight hours! I'm feeling tired, and thirsty for some oil. Please. Any.
"Dammit, why did I get off that stupid pill ship only to be lost in the desert, metal burning red hot, and a dry throat! I didn't ask to be here!" I shout out, loud and irritated. It's not like anyone will hear me, anyway. I continue to walk on the sand, feeling it move beneath my tooth-pick-like feet.
"And what the hell is that smell?!" I shout again, before turning around to kick a nearby rock behind. I watched it from a move once.
After I took care of some of my rage on a rock, I continue on walking mindlessly throughout the desert.
As I walk, I think of all the previous things I did with N; meeting at the corpse spire, developing feelings for him at the prom, his calm demeanor back at Camp 98.7, destroying the AbsoluteSolver myself, dating him... and now this? Him choosing the who-knows-what over me, completely discarding my feelings in the process? Why the hell did he do that?! Was he acting all lovey-dovey to me?! Why?!My thoughts are interrupted when I see something move towards me. It looked huge, judging by the size of it. I looked to be four hundred and fifty metres long.
"What the hell is that?" I ask, blankly, not expecting any answer in the desert. I materialise my wings, prepared to escape it. I suddenly get a new thought: fight it.
I immediately retract my SMGS, and aim it directly at it in a fighting stance. It look a long time for it to come to me, but when it eventually did, I immediately jump into the air, wings in motion. It sensed that I was not on the sand anymore, as it had the audacity to quickly turn around and face me, it's body pinching out of the sand. I finally got a good look at it, and my God, it looked like my sleep paralysis demon; it was a fucking huge worm, with ridged, scaley-looking skin, looking hard; it also had thin, long teeth, with no gums present; despite having hundreds of them, there was a hole in the middle of it for some reason. If there were to exist some objects of it, like a popcorn bucket, alot of horny men would love to stick themselves into it.
If you know what I mean.
Anyways, I stared at it in shock and fascination. I quickly gain my composure and start shooting at it with my SMGS. It did nothing. As a matter of fact, I made it mad. It made a loud roar in anger, and quickly shoved itself to myself.
Luckily, I dodge the attack before it ate me, letting the worm to slap itself into the sand. That idiot didn't even bother to do another attack, as it burrowed itself into the sand, retreating away from me.
Or maybe it figured out that I could kick his ass, I think to myself, chuckling to myself. I then fly away from the worm, wings flapping along the air. I stop around the four minute mark, as I was exhausted. I retract my wings and start to walk through the sand, tail swaying through the air. I exchange some thoughts with Khan Jr. As I continue to walk. Unfortunately, tnough, I fall to the ground, too bothered to walk anywhere. I close my eyes, and enter sleep mode, not having a care in the world what will happen to me...
_______________________________________(Seven Days Later...)
The worker-dissasembly finally starts to slowly wake up, her eyes trying to process the environment; she now wasn't in the desert, instead being a room looking of an old Arabic house; Uzi was laying down on a bed, it's blanket also looking like it's of Middle Eastern origins; there was also some standing in the room, looking out the window.
"Who the hell are you?" Uzi asks, struggling to pry her hands out of the blanket. That got the attention of the person, as she looked at Uzi. She walks towards the bed, and Uzi can see the full display; she had the usual female proportions, being trapped by the skin-tight suit covering her body; a green-and-black uniform was covering some parts of the suit, with a symbol of a red hawk on her left breast; her face was covered with an astronaut-like helmet, black glass being upfront of the helmet.
"Ah, you're awake. Took you long enough," says the woman, sitting down on the bed. Uzi finally pries her hands from the blanket, unsure of sheathing her blades, just staring at her with hollow eyes. They look at each other for a few seconds, before the woman continues, "We found you in the desert. You could be another of the prophecies, like the Lisan-Al-Gaib."
"The Lisan-Al-what now?" Asks uzi, her tone of like a child gaining self-conscience on his birthday.
"It's 'the voice from the outer world' in the Fremen language. Like you, 'a machine sent here to help the Lisan-Al-Gaib'," Explains the woman. Lisan-Al-Gaib? Fremen? What words are Uzi listening to?!
"Uh-huh? What's your name, by the way?" Uzi blurts out, fidgeting with her finger. The woman give a small laugh, before answering, "Names Tessa. Tessa Jame elliot. House Atreides' first female commander. And you are...?"
Uzi lays there, finally hearing the name again. She heard of it also ten years ago, on Copper 9, posing as a JCJenson technician, when, in reality, a flesh puppet of the AbsoluteSolver, and she's an actual person?! And not just any person, but the first female commander of House Atreides?! Tessa sits there, confused and waiting for an answer.
"Do you... not have a name?"
"... Name's Uzi." The worker-dissasembly finally answers, still processing what she just heard. Finally, she gets over it, trying to act cool with it, "Soo... why are you wearing a helmet?" Asks Uzi, leading for the Atreides commander to reply, "I think the Atreides military uniform is cool, pretty mysterious... and just because I felt like it. Want me to take it off?" Asks Tessa, waiting for an answer. Uzi processes the question, before replying, "Sure, why not?"
Tessa sits up from the bed, still eyeing Uzi. She removes the flexible, pipe-like apparatus from the helmet, before clicking something on the side of the helmet, and finally... the glass part comes off, resting it on the floor. Tessa then pulls off the rest of the helmet off, resting it near the glass part. Now, her face is visible; she had milky white skin, with red, perky lips, and red, puffy hair, with a black bow placed on the top of it. She inhales deeply, feeling the air laced with Melange rushing into her nasal cavity. As uzi drinks in her the sight of Tessa's face, she blushes slightly, taking aback by her beauty. Not like she's bi, that has been a habit of her since forever. Uzi then mutters through her breathe, "God, you're so beautiful."
Tessa chuckles, hearing Uzi's compliment, "Thanks. I regularly have stuff like that said by men, but rarely woman, let alone... whatever you are," replies Tessa, her voice thick with an Australian ascent, now having nothing infront of her mouth.
"Uhm, y-you're welcome, I guess?" Uzi stutters, slightly. Tessa places a hand in her hair, playing with one of the many hair strands in her puffy hair.
"Now that you're finally awake, we should get you out of there. Apparently, the duke's son, Paul, rode a sandworm a few days earlier, fulfilling a prophecy," Explains Tessa, grabbing Uzi's hand, pulling her out of the bed. She was surpising strong for a seemingly skinny woman, as she easily pulls Uzi out of the bed, letting the blanket get caught in her legs. Uzi shoves the blanket down to her legs, before randomly asking to Tessa, "By the way, what's House Atreides."
