Murder Drones - Last Stand (Tessa x male reader)

PLAYING://Chapter_2.mp4

Hello, hello!

I have received some feedback regarding the way I implemented other languages in the last chapter, so I decided to change a few things. From now on you'll also talk English with the four drones at your house. Once I finish the story, which'll be in the far future, I'll change the first chapter in that regard too. You will, however, still talk German to your family since they'll be characters only appearing rarely. I suspect that the problem is that both German and English use the same alphabet, making it hard to see where the English version starts and where it ends, so I hope that the same problem won't appear with Doll. But that's a problem for future me. I'll also put the /// in between the two different languages and not in front of the English one, that should help a little more too.

I hope this is acceptable.

Other than that, I don't have much to say.

Let's get into it!

...|4 years and 8 days until the Fall of Earth|...

The ringing of the doorbell, though muffled, could be heard from outside the door. And it didn't take long until you heard steps approaching, seemingly coming from high heels based on the sound. The next thing that happened was the door opening.

In the doorway was now a woman, seemingly in her late thirties to early forties, wearing elegant robes, with high heels of course. The most prominent features were her hat, being big and having feathers to complete the look, and her fan, which she was holding in front of her lower face right now.

The drone that drove you here bowed and went inside in a hurry after the woman signed him to do so.

Y/N: (Ugh... I'll have to keep up my manners, don't I? Fine...) Bows a little. "Greetings, ma'am. My name is Y/N L/N, I assume you have heard the news of me arriving?"

The woman, who was looking at you skeptically before, now had a more... tolerating... look to her.

Woman: "Ah, yes. Your parents have informed me and my husband about your arrival today. My name is Louisa Elliott. But you've most likely heard about us already, haven't you?"

Y/N: (Just gonna pretend I did... I literally only know the name "Elliott", but oh well...) Nods "Yes, ma'am. Your family made quite the name for themselves. It's a pleasure to be meeting you."

Louisa seemed satisfied with that answer and moved aside.

Louisa: "Well, what are you waiting outside for? Come inside."

You did as you were told and went inside, Louisa closed the door behind you.

The inside of the mansion was as you'd expect. Expensive looking, with some vases with probably fake flowers in them, and paintings on the walls. The floor was also made out of an expensive-looking carpet.

Louisa: "Please clean off your shoes before you go further in, we don't want mud in our mansion."

You complied and thoroughly cleaned your shoes on the doormat, which was for some reason inside the house. While you were doing that, Louisa looked at a clock on the wall.

Louisa: "Hm. You're a little earlier than expected, we assumed you'd come a little late because of traffic."

Y/N: "That's one thing about us Germans, we like to be around five minutes early! Even if our trains... don't really represent that..."

Louisa: "Well, at least you're punctual. Unlike SOMEONE ELSE I know."

For some reason, she was now staring daggers up the stairs at the located end of the hallway.
