N X Reader - Lover Drones~

~Chapter 2: Behind the Big Doors~

"D-Dad... point and shoot...!" Uzi stuttered. Her dad was too scared to even hear her. He started backing away.

"Dad!!! Trust me!!!" Uzi cried out. Although, her dad was too filled with terror to notice her plead.

He slammed the door in front of him shut, making Uzi scream.

When the door shut closed, flashing red lights came on, along with an alarm. 

You looked over at Uzi. She stared at the shut door in disbelief. You couldn't help but feel even more sorry for her. 

N seemed to have realised what he had done to Uzi. His usual happy expression had disappeared completely. He had a look of guilt and sorrow on his face.

"Wow, N!" The familiar female voice said. N pulled his wing blade out of Uzi's chest to look over at whom the voice belonged to.

You shut your eyes in frustration. 'Not her...'

"I must be dreaming! You did something useful for once!" J exclaimed.

"I've been trying to get past these doors for months!!! Nice work, N!" V smiled.

N nodded sheepishly. V charged through the ceiling, obviously to go and kill more worker drones.

You managed to sneak past J, who was chatting to N about how useful he was being for once. You helped Uzi on to her feet, pulling her up by grabbing her hand.

"H-he... he left me..." Uzi's voice cracked as she made out her statement.

"I know, Uzi... and I'm sorry... I feel terrible for you, I really do."

"Hey, (Y/N)! Stop socialising with the victims!" J demanded.

You spun around to face her. You gave her as much attitude as you could with your reply. "Fine."

You slowly lowered Uzi back on to the ground to lay down. Her pupils flickered, showing that she was on the ridge of dying. The sorrow inside of you built up more, but you knew that you had to do as J demanded.

"Look, (Y/N)! J gave me a branded pen as a reward!" N beamed, showing you his orange and white pen with the words 'JC Jenson' on it.

You smiled back. You knew how much N had wanted one of those pens, no matter how pointless they were.

As N stared down at his pen, he thought to himself.

He thought about the company that the serial designation worked for.

He thought about why they might have sent him out to kill worker drones with (Y/N), V and J.

He thought about what they might do to them after their job was done...

"Hey, J?" N said, catching the female's attention. J looked over at him.

"Just out of curiosity.....what is the company planning to do with us afterwards...?" He asked.

You glanced up at him in shock. Where the hell did that question come from!?!? 

J stared at him for a few moments, before replying. "Excuse me...?"

"Well... (Y/N) and I have been trying to figure out how to work that broken landing pod in the corpse house. We were wondering what it would be like to travel to spa-"

Before he could finish his sentence, you clapped your hand over his mouth to stop him from talking. You gave him a glare, getting him to take a hint.

You and N had always wanted to go to space together. It was one of the reasons to why you went to the corpse house almost every day. You and N would study the buttons, and the power supplier, and other important things that a space craft would normally need to fly to space.

"My, my... (Y/N) and N..." J smirked, her eyes narrowing. "Don't you know that that's against the rules?"

"I-I'm sorry! I shouldn't have been questioning the company! AND I shouldn't have brought up the thing about the landing pod either!" N declared.

"No no no, by questioning the company, you've given me a great idea, N!" J affirmed, placing a hand on his shoulder.

"You really are learning more and more..." she muttered.

Before N could respond, his breath hitched suddenly. You looked down at his chest, only to see that J had stuck a virus on to his shirt. You gasped.

As he fell to his knees, you tried to catch him, but to no avail.

"Worker drones are corrupted! That's why the company sent us!" J said. "I'll be sad to see you corrupted too...!"

"How could you!?!?" You screeched, a lump forming in your throat. J just cackled.

"Th-th-thanks for b-being awesome, J-J...." N buffered, falling face first on to the ground.

J flew off, pretty much as if nothing happened. You looked down at your best friend, who was being consumed by the virus that J had given him.

"N... N, please...." You croaked. 

"I'm f-f-fine, (Y/N)! H-h-honestly..." he replied.

You heard something rustle from behind you. You turned around to see Uzi on her feet, as if she had never been injured.

"U-Uzi..." N stuttered. "I-I'm sorry for r-ruining your c-card game... a-and making you have an a-awkward moment with your d-dad...."

"It's my fault that that virus is stuck to you...." Uzi responded. "Which pretty much makes us even."

All three of you laughed.

Uzi climbed up on to a box. You stared after her. "Where are you going...?" You asked.

Uzi turned around to gaze at you. "I-I..... um...." 

"Can't you at least try to help him...?" You asked in a low voice. Uzi could hear how emotional you were getting. She couldn't blame you, though, your best friend was literally about to die.

".....Fine." Uzi said. "But only because it's a favour for a fellow gal in need."

You cheered, your smile reappearing. N became happy too. Uzi grabbed a nearby wrench, and kneeled down beside you.

"I'm gonna try and pluck it out." She told you. "Hopefully, it will work and pop off."

You helped Uzi try to pull off the virus tab with the wrench. It took lots of patience, and cries of pain from N, before it finally worked.

It popped off, and N went back to normal. All three of you cheered, jumping up on to your feet and hugging each other in gratitude.

You squeezed N as tightly as you could. "I thought I was gonna lose you forever..." you sniffled. 

He stroked your head passionately. "I'm not leaving you anytime soon, (Y/N)..." he whispered.
