Murder Drones: Business is Business

Chapter 3: Risk and Reward

J approached the vent, examining it. "seems.. pretty loose." She nodded her head, and switched her arm to a blade, attempting to force the vent open. Eventually, she got it open, catching the vent door, gently placing it on her bed. "..It's the only shot I have.." J muttered, seemingly to remind herself. She leaped up, trying to make as little noise as possible, and began crawling through the vent, occasionally stopping to make sure no one was following her, or below her. A few moments later, she kicked another vent door open, jumping down. "..alright.. now.. where to go.." J observed her surroundings, and began to walk down the hallway. Suddenly, a voice could be heard, causing J to instantly leap behind a crate. "..did they see me-?" she muttered, poking her head out, and in the hallway was X. "..fuck-" J muttered, instantly going back to hiding. "..why is she here..-"

J observed X carefully, not taking her eyes off her. X turned on a radio, "..Z.. nothing here, over." she turned the volume down, and clipped it to her belt. J now formulated a plan, she grabbed a pen and threw it over to the wall next to her. "..The hell was that-?" X said, walking over. "..just.. a pe-" J quickly took advantage of this, and forced X into a chokehold, swiftly covering X's mouth with her hand. "..Shhh- shut the hell up. ." She whispered to X, dragging her into a separate room, and tying her up with some chains. "..If you scream, you're dead.. alright-?" X froze, but nodded. "..fine.. what the hell do you want." "..The way out." J simply stated. "..This place is made of JcJenson branded steal.. far too tough for me to break through.." "..I can't tell you that..- They'll kill me-!" X's eyes widened, genuinely worried. "..And I should care.. why?" J responded, a smirk forming on her face. "..F..fine- here.." She gave J a map. "..Really.. paper?" J snatched it, rolling it up. "..They never gave us a digital map of this place.. it was top secret or something.. we just ran into it-" X sighed. "..Now untie me.." "..Ehhh- Nah.. see ya-!" J chuckled, walking out. "..H..HEY- YOU BITCH-! GET BACK HERE-"  The door shut behind her, leaving X in darkness.

Eventually, X's screams got quieter as J made her way through the facility. J looked over, spotting something on the wall, a glass box. She approached it and opened it, revealing a.. key? "..what the hell is this-.." J stared at the key, noticing a tag on it, which read, [EXPERIMENT 5.0.3] "..humph.. alright.. I'll just hold onto this." She sighed, pocketing the key, continuing to walk through the hallway. After around thirty minutes of walking, she spotted another door, labeled 503. She rummaged through her pocket, taking out the key, and would begin to approach the door. J put the key into the keyhole and twisted it, causing the door to open. "..Hm..- what.. could be in here.." She walked into the room, and turned on a switch. It seemed to be a large laboratory, full of computers, and spare parts, and in the center stood a large machine, towering over her. "..is that.. a senti-" She was cut off by a familiar voice. "..I warned you J-" B switched to his shotgun arm, and aimed.
