That guy0101: I'm working on a Drakengard 3 x kh spin off story after this, but in terms of a direct continuation, depends on if I have any good ideas. I'm open to doing more NieR crossovers with a different franchise in the future, probably nothing as long as this though lol.
Keybladelight: The children will be saved, I didn't forget about them. I'll have to see what I can use for the remind dlc whenever it's out.
Anon: That's an interesting hc, I thought it was just because they were in disney worlds and there's always talking animals somewhere. I see no one's a fan of kh 3 keyblades, tragic, but the engine blade as a base is a good idea. I'm thinking the design will be more machinery based or something digital like zero/one.
Mr. Awesome: A2 ends up pinning Sora on the ground after trying to be friendly :v
Guest (Jan 3): If A2 knew the extent of kingdom hearts and the other worlds, she might not understand all of it, but she could potentially make a great ally. Keyblade training would begin and end with teaching her not to immediately use the darkness for a power boost lol. Oh yeah, I almost forgot about the time A2 happened to be drunk around Sora even though I wrote it myself, but she was mostly out of it. And I did read Beasts of Slaughter, I figured I would add A2 hacking something when she gets a pod of her own.
Guest (Jan 1): *monkey paw curls a finger*
Bluzerker: I do have a bad habit of prolonging things. I thought this was gonna end at Chapter 13, but...
[T]he Curse of Androids
"Unit 66B Offline."
"Unit 5S Offline."
"Unit 24B Offline."
The constant beeping of the 'WARNING' alert accompanied by the detached voices of Operator androids numbering off YoRHa soldiers one by one followed Commander White throughout the Bunker until the doors closed behind her and she was finally met with silence as she entered her room.
"What an utter failure." She fell back on her bed. "At least we can put this data to use for a new line of androids, but we've lost a substantial amount of our forces. I can't believe the machines are wiping them out at such an unprecedented rate..."
Hearing the door slide open, Commander White raised her head and saw a friendly face standing in the doorway. "Operator 6O, you should be at your station," She said in a stern tone.
"It looked like you needed a friend... and 2B self-destructed her black box so she's in the Bunker now." Her eyebrows furrowed at all of the Commander's clothes strewn haphazardly across the floor and bed. "Ugh, you really need to clean up, it smells like depression in here."
"You can always go back to your station."
"And stare at a blank screen all day? No thanks." After wading through the mess, she plopped down next to Commander White. "...I don't even wanna know how long it's been since you've last done maintenance. You need to pull yourself together, you are the Commander."
"Heh, that I am." The tenseness in her face and voice eased up a little just from being in Operator 6O's presence. "Why don't you try being the Commander and see how quickly those things don't matter."
She chuckled. "Point taken, I can't imagine operating another 2B... but if personal hygiene clearly doesn't matter to you, then what does?"
"You would ask your Commander such a pointless question?"
"I just want to hear you say it."
"It goes without saying."
"Then spell it out for me!"
Commander White let out a defeated sigh. "You win, but I'll only tell you. My top priority has always been ..." Her words trailed off when Operator 6O's head abruptly dropped down. "6O? Are you okay? 6O?"
"Heh heh heh, this must be a game to you. You can't even decide what's more important. Us or those...those humans." Her red eyes fixated on Commander White's, then her body was pushed back so those red eyes focused on the blank ceiling instead. With one last, disheartened gaze, the doors closed behind the Commander just as she closed herself off to any lingering emotions inside her. Then she returned to Mission Control Center with her best attempt at appearing collected in the face of the other androids.
"Unit 19S Offline."
"Unit 13B Offline."
"Unit 7B Offline."
"Commander, you're back," An Operator said. "We're attempting to regain communication with the Earth's servers, so the whereabouts of the human remains unknown."
"I'm not worried about that. It'll be easy to find him, we'll just go to wherever the heartless are. I'm worried about...the androids. Our ground units. Why haven't they reported anything if we keep losing them this fast?"
"We've lost connection a while ago, all we can do is report the status of their black box signals. Should we continue with our current strategy or opt for a different approach?"
"..."
"Commander?"
"..."
"一Commander!"
The sound of 2B's voice snapped Commander White back into reality. "2B? 9S?" She asked as the two androids frantically ran up to her. "You shouldn't be here!"
"We know, but the YoRHa units on the ground were infected by a virus, we had to detonate our black boxes in order to stop them," 9S said.
Commander White was angered enough to break her stoic composure and outright yell at the two androids, "All YoRHa units have anti-virus programs installed, a goddamn virus can't be the reason why we're losing this many of our forces when we're built against that! And the fact that you're standing right in front of me away from the battlefield when I didn't even order a retreat is proof of that!"
"We're telling you, YoRHa has gone berserk!" 2B cried out.
"...No. You're the ones that are infected, just like ...she was..."
"Are you nuts?!" 9S said.
She pointed her riding crop at them to solidify her stance. "2B, 9S. You're being detained under suspicion of virus contamination." Several YoRHa androids joined her side and also raised their swords only for it to backfire when they succumbed to the logic virus.
"Eee hee hee! Bingoo!" One of the now infected YoRHa androids cackled as red eyes emitted from her helmet.
Dozens of bright red eyes surrounded the three of them, but 2B was the only one who immediately stirred to action at the imminent danger, fending off her Commander against an infected android. "Commander, we have to go!"
"We can't, damn it, the doors are locked," 9S said. "Did the virus infiltrate the Bunker itself?!"
"Ooooo! Bingo AGAIN! We are your beloved machine lifeforms. We speak to you through the network and the virus."
"How is that possible?!" 2B defeated the YoRHa android that served as the mouthpiece to the so-called machine network, yet their high-pitched, omnipresent voices remained persistent within the Bunker and it continued without pause.
"We've had a great deal of fun watching you ~squirm~ But I'm afraid the end has come for this outpost."
"You will do no such thing!" Commander White said in protest, which merely made the machine network laugh out of spite.
"Ah ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha! WHAT MEANINGLESS WORDS BECAUSE YOU WILL ALL FALL INTO OBLIVION!"
YoRHa androids ranging from type B all the way to non-combative type O models shared the same fate tied to death from the logic virus. YoRHa androids that were once Commander White's subordinates who she regularly made conversation with, mostly by ordering around, were now being sliced into, stabbed, blown up, impaled, hacked, things she never thought she'd ever bear witness to was unfolding right in front of her. She wondered when this nightmare would end, but it kept on going and going and going until 2B struck her sword through the last android in Mission Control Center and the room was flooded with red light.
"The doors are open now," 9S said. "We can get out of here!"
'That's the emergency signal.' Commander White made her way to the elevator where the others were while the emergency broadcast drowned out the noise.
EMERGENCY: THE FUSION REACTOR TO THE BUNKER IS CURRENTLY IN AN UNCONTROLLABLE STATE. ALL YORHA UNITS MUST EVACUATE THE BUNKER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
The elevator raised to the second level.
REPEAT: THE FUSION REACTOR TO THE BUNKER IS CURRENTLY IN AN UNCONTROLLABLE STATE. ALL YORHA UNITS MUST- HEhehe ehHE ehe EH E Eva-va-vacuate ehe he hhhhe eh he HA HA AH HAAAA
Once they finally escaped Mission Control Center and ran down the red washed halls of the Bunker, they encountered more infected androids that 2B and 9S had no choice but to fight if they wanted to progress. "G-G-Glory to...m-mankind..."
"All YoRHa units...LAUnch..."
Despite how despondent 2B was at this point, she couldn't help but recoil in horror at the remnants of themselves still trying to break free from the logic virus. "They're still...conscious..."
"Stay focused, 2B!" 9S said.
After defeating the first onslaught of infected androids, they pressed on further into the chaos. Along the way, the emergency lights powered out and the Bunker went pitch-black so 2B and 9S used the light of their pods to shine against the darkness. Inevitably as they were placed in a more vulnerable environment, androids jumped out of the shadows to attack them. "Hee Hee! I want to see the human again! A-A-A-Again!"
But one particularly cheerful voice stood out amongst the drones that had a poignant effect on them.
"Two-Bee, I-I-I am Operator siix-oH. ThAnk yOU ffffoR the FFLoWERs. Desert FLOWers are BEAUTF-, a-a-a-areN'T tHEY? Th-Th-Thank you...SoMEday I ...actually why don't i tell you in person."
Someone grabbed Commander White from behind with the intent to choke her. "Wh-Wh-Why do you ALwaYS hAVe to LeaVE MEEEEE?!"
"I... I got so caught up in everything ... nothing else seemed to matter!" Commander White said in between gasps of breath.
"So so sososo what DOES MATTER?!"
"Commander!" 2B forced Operator 6O off of her, then threw her own operator to the ground. "We can't stop, the Bunker is lost. We have to evacuate!"
"...I'm right behind you."
They made it to the elevator leading down to the terminal where they received a brief moment of reprieve. "Tell me...why weren't you two infected?" Commander White asked.
"I...I don't know!" 2B yelled.
"It's probably because I deferred our data sync," 9S said. "I noticed some weird noise in the Bunker's server data so I paused the upload."
While the elevator doors to the terminal slid open, the entryway wouldn't budge. "No, the transport terminal is corrupted! Our only way out is through the Hangar," 9S said.
"OHHhhhh THIS IS SO MUCH FUN THE VIRUS WE PLANTED HAS SPROUTED INTO A BEAUTIFUL FLOWER!"
2B, 9S and the Commander fought their way past the remaining infected YoRHa androids to reach the Hangar elevator. "Commander, we're going to get some flight units, then we'll be out of here," 2B said as they boarded inside, but she didn't acknowledge a word that was said to her.
By the time they were finally at the Hangar, so close to freedom, Commander White stopped dead in her tracks, causing 2B to turn back and scream, "Commander, hurry!"
"No. I'm staying here. I can't." Slowly raising her head, she revealed her bloodshot red eyes to them. "I, too, was synced up to the server."
"But 9S can hack into your system and-"
"There's no time...it doesn't matter. You two are the last remaining members of YoRHa, it's your duty to survive. Besides, this is my command, let me at least fulfill my duty here to the end."
"No... no Commander! We can still save you if you'd just let us!" 2B tried reaching out to her, but 9S held her back.
"Move it 2B, that's an order!"
"But..."
"2B, this place is lost," 9S said. "We have to go."
"2B, 9S. Know that my top priority has always been to serve the androids." The doors closed shut while 2B and 9S escaped to the flight units.
"This is how it ends. So be it, the captain goes down with her ship." However, the Commander wasn't the only one who remained in the Bunker, the neoshadow heartless they captured was able to escape its confinement and crawled its way to the Hangar where it confronted her. Its monstrous face devoid of emotion brought a smile to her face. "I still won't admit defeat. I may have lost, but the androids will triumph over you one day..."
At the same time the Bunker was collapsing, 2B and 9S broke through the stratosphere and were flying over the ocean where they were ambushed by airborne machines. Shooting them down one by one in all her rage and ferocity was the only thing that still felt normal to 2B.
She even went as far as to deploy 9S to keep him safe while she shouldered the brunt of the machine's attacks. Nothing else mattered, not the sadness or despair from losing everything that gave her life meaning, just the euphoric release of watching scraps of machinery fall into the ocean kept her running.
Then her entire field of vision was swallowed in white light and next thing 2B knew, she was lying on the cold ground of the Flooded City, once again surrounded by machines.

When 2B least expected it, two infected androids attacked her and in those moments she thought were her last, she heard a familiar voice yell out, "BLIZZARD!"
"You've seen better days, 2B."
When 2B saw Sora standing before her with his arm extended out, it was as if a light had shined down on her. "Don't worry. Whatever's going on with you, we'll figure it out together!"
"Sora what are you...never mind...there's nothing you can do for me, this virus will be the death of me."
"A virus? Nothing I can't fix!" He pointed his keyblade at 2B, then enunciated 'Esuna'. All of a sudden, blue spheres of energy circled around the YoRHa android and bright yellow light enveloped her.
"...oh..."
Pod 042: Virus successfully eliminated. Commencing factory reset in order to salvage remaining data
2B powered down, her head falling to her chest.
"Will she be okay?" Sora asked.
Pod 042: Unknown. Virus contamination has done irreparable damage
"I'm glad I was at least able to give her a fighting chance. Good thing I came when I did, now come on, let's get you somewhere safe." He wrapped his arms around her body. "Ugh, you're a lot heavier than you look!"
At the worst timing possible, the infected YoRHa androids broke out of Sora's blizzard spell and were about to attack the two of them, but their bodies were severed in half at, incidentally, the best timing possible.
"Hey A2," Sora said, he couldn't hide how much he was smiling at finally seeing her.
A2 transferred her sword into her database. "You came back, idiot."
"Guess I got lost on the way, ha ha..."
'I can tell it's a sore spot for him, I'll drop it for now.' "...What happened to 2B?"
"A virus infected her, but I cured it."
"Of course you did." A2 approached 2B, then bent down to her level. 'Even if he got rid of the virus, I'm sure it's done some serious damage to her.' She brushed the hair out of her face. 'If Sora wasn't here, this could've gone a lot differently.'
Without warning, 2B powered back on. "Enemy android identified, initiating immediate execution." Summoning Virtuous Contract, she stabbed A2 straight through her chest, then ripped her sword out of her body, satisfied with her job.
"NO, A2!" Sora stood in fierce protection of A2. "How could you 2B...A2's your friend and you cut her down like she was nothing! HOW COULD YOU DO THIS?!" His heart was pounding on his chest and he felt that rush of adrenaline surge through his veins. If 2B were any other android, he would've already been taken over by rage mode, but he kept his emotions in check for her sake. Otherwise, there was no telling what he would do and apart of him still foolishly believed the real 2B would come to her senses.
Before 2B could answer, the ground trembled due to a sudden earthquake, but one voice called out to 2B and it came from the bridge. 9S's shaky voice reached out to her '2B, 2B!' he kept yelling, but that name held no meaning to her.
"My official designation is 2E." She turned her back to 9S, then walked away.
"No- no 2B, don't leave me, no don't leave me again! 2B!" He tried to run after her, but numerous white pillars sprung out from the abyss, destroying the bridge he was standing on and he fell down into the ravine, screaming 2B's name.
It was Sora who yelled, "9S!" and it was Sora who wanted to save him while 2B abandoned her friends. Even if they were on bad terms, it's not like Sora wanted his android counterpart to die, but with A2 lying in a pool of her own blood and his cure spells, at best, stopping the bleeding, Sora was afraid he'd lose her too.
Fortunately, two more androids showed up. "Go after him, we'll save A2," Devola said, holding A2's body in her arms.
NieR: [O]blivion
The Death of YoRHa
A/N II: I finally finished pre-planning everything and the story will end at chapter 35 or sooner depending on what I decide goes on the chopping block. So there are about 11 more chapters left give or take and that includes all the sidequests y'all wanted me to do. I've been planning a sequel/spinoff set in the Drakengard 3 world, but more details on that later.
