Show me how to be whole again.
9A-91 and PA-15 had just abandoned the shooting and entered a fortress building on Makarov's orders, it was Pavilion 3. There were some officers inside and one of them approached the girls.
" You shouldn't be here. Pavilion 1 is under attack. "
" We're aware of this. " 9A-91 answered.
" Then, why are you here? "
9A-91 looked at the officer's shoulder pads to be able to identify his rank. He was a lieutenant and also looked quite young and inexperienced by the appearance. Behind him were two other men of the same rank talking, they had anxious looks ; one of them wanted to escape.
" There's no need to fear. " She said to the man in front of her.
" You are a T-Doll, right? Look ... you can't stay here. Your commander, whoever he is, has no authorization to send the Dolls to this Pavilion. Therefore … "
" We're part of Team EXPIATIO, we have to defend this building. "
" Team… EXPIATIO? " The man turned and called a colleague of his. " Hey, Girovini, we have a problem! "
" What happens, Zanni? " He asked, approaching.
" These T-Dolls are from Team EXPIATIO. They were sent to protect this Pavilion, that means you were right, right? They want to target the armory. "
" If they sent reinforcements here, that means they are. Hmm ... we have to arm ourselves and prepare for the worst, we cannot let Sangvis Ferri attack the armory. "
" But… we are too few! " Lieutenant Zanni exclaimed, frightened.
" I know… but we have no other choice. I contacted Lieutenant Cacciatore a little while ago and he informed me of the situation ... Alchemist is in Pavilion 1, the emergency generator has been activated, this means that she has cut the power. As it happens, the defensive barrier of the armory only works with a high consumption of electricity, it's clear that they want to get here. "
" Yes… but… if you're right, what are they waiting for? "
" I don't know. " Lieutenant Girovini turned and noticed that the two girls were listening. " Right, you two ... "
" We can help. " 9A-91 said.
" I don't doubt it. " Girovini commented with a raised eyebrow. " You must know that it's my belief that Sangvis Ferri wants to attack our armory. Without that we cannot supply the T-Dolls at the front and therefore we cannot continue with the counterattack. Not to mention the anti-aircraft ... and the automated defenses of the fortress have been deactivated so anyone could enter without problems. "
" So let's go to Pavilion 1 to fight Alchemist! " PA-15 suggested, ecstatic.
" No. If I know Lieutenant Cacciatore, and I know him very well, I'm sure he will be thinking of a way to fix the main generator. With the emergency generator we cannot continue the resistance ... however it's our duty to protect the armory until death. " Girovini turned and saw his colleague running towards the stairs.
" Who's that guy? " 9A-91 asked.
" Lieutenant Remi. He's a born coward. He's probably going to get a shotgun and look for a place to hide. " Lieutenant Girovini said, with a disgusted expression.
9A-91 heard interferences, someone was trying to contact her but couldn't hear her voice well. It was anomalous as a thing. Team EXPIATIO's communications took place in a closed channel, and just now they were perfect, this it meant that there was something interfering with the radio waves. The girl pulled the safety of the gun off and said to PA-15 :
" There's an enemy. "
9A-91 ran out of the building and then saw Dreamer in the sky. PA-15 reached 9A-91 and when she too saw the enemy she took the girl by the arm and carried her inside the Pavilion.
" What's happening, now? " Lieutenant Girovini asked.
" Dreamer. Dreamer has arrived. " PA-15 answered, taking cover behind a wall.
" Fuck! " Girovini exclaimed. " Zanni, notify Lieutenant Cacciatore immediately and tell him we need reinforcements! "
" It won't do any good. " 9A-91 said. " Communications don't work. "
" B-but ... what can we do? " Lieutenant Zanni stammered.
" Fight to the death. " PA-15 replied with a combative smile.
" So this is where Griffin & Kryuger threw the party? " Dreamer asked, with an ironic tone. The girl was within range and PA-15, from the window, fired but touched Dreamer's cheek. " Here's someone ready to die."
Dreamer descended at full speed and smashed through the wall of the Pavilion like a missile; Lieutenant Zanni was in front of her, pulled out his gun but she beheaded him with a kick. Lieutenant Girovini walked away and prepared to shoot while 9A-91 and PA-15 immediately opened fire. Dreamer came out of the building right where she had entered and with a sadistic grin asserted:
" You two are friends of OTs-14 and AA-12, aren't you? It's a real shame I killed them both, now you won't be able to play together and braid each other anymore. Ah, ah! "
" Bitch ... " PA-15 muttered.
" Calm down, PA-15, we must find a way to force Dreamer to stay on the ground, only in this way we can destroy her. " 9A-91 said placing her hand on the girl's shoulder.
" Do you have a plan? "
" I'm faster than you, I can act as a decoy, I will distract Dreamer and in the meantime you will shoot her, she cannot fight enemies that circle around her, her weapon can only strike forward and this is her disadvantage. "
" Fine. "
PA-15 knew that 9A-91's plan implied that she would be in range and was afraid of hurting her as had already happened. She turned to 9A-91 and asked:
" Do you trust me? "
" Why? "
" I'm dangerous ... last time, during our training, I almost ... killed you. I cannot forgive myself for such a thing. "
" PA-15… " 9A-91 hugged the girl and said: " What happened is not your sin but mine… don't take on the sins you don't have. "
" Hey! I'm getting bored up here, you know? Why don't you come out and ... " Dreamer saw 9A-91 run out of the building and shoot at her, a bullet just missed her head. " So that's it? Damn, you girls are really idiots. "
Dreamer chased 9A-91 and started laser shooting at her but 9A-91 was fast enough to dodge several shots. Meanwhile PA-15 sneaked out and targeted Dreamer. Headshot, that's what she needed, with a blow to the head the battle would have ended immediately. Dreamer stopped in mid-air and noticed that there were T-Dolls that were successfully repelling the Vespids outside the walls and so she fired a laser beam that killed them. When she was spotted by the other T-Dolls, panic was created because the girls were unsure whether it was better to keep pushing enemies outside or to destroy Dreamer inside the fort. Noticing the confusion, Dreamer came to the conclusion that Alchemist had managed to get rid of the commanders. 9A-91 had noticed the same thing and was worried because she knew that Makarov and SCW were inside Pavilion1. Dreamer turned and realized that 9A-91 had stopped running and charged a laser beam that would have killed her immediately but a bullet went off and hit her side. Dreamer turned and saw PA-15.
" Do you think this will be enough to stop me? A bullet is nothing to me. "
Dreamer accelerated and PA-15 got ready to shoot her in the head. In just one second Dreamer understood what her opponent's plan was and suddenly veered then entered Pavilion 3 and there she saw Lieutenant Girovini who was trying to communicate with Lieutenant Cacciatore; when the man realized he was being watched he turned and fired but Dreamer dodged the bullets and took him by the throat. 9A-91 and PA-15 saw Dreamer go out with a hostage.
" Since you like to play unfairly, I'll do the same. " Dreamer asserted with a demonic grin. " So, you fight to defend these humans, right? And what if I decide to drop him like a sack of shit? "
The two Dolls didn't react but they were visibly worried about that man's life. Dreamer sighed and threw Girovini to the ground. 9A-91 dropped the weapon and ran to save the lieutenant and then Dreamer aimed 9A-91 and Girovini.
" You're too predictable, Dreamer. " PA-15 said, in position, targeting the enemy's head.
" Am I, really? "
Dreamer suddenly turned and fired a laser beam at PA-15 piercing her stomach. PA-15 fell to the ground. 9A-91 had managed to save the lieutenant but when she realized that her friend was badly injured she rushed to her aid but Dreamer blocked her way.
" Where do you think you're going? You're my toy, now. "
" My friend ... " 9A-91 was shocked and had tears in her eyes.
" Huh? Are you ignoring me on purpose? "
" How could you hurt her?! " 9A-91 screamed furiously. She tried to punch Dreamer.
" Worm, crawl. " Dreamer parried the blow and with her foot pushed 9A-91 to the ground. " With your disgusting hands don't dare to touch me, I belong to a superior species now, you're only slaves, your body belongs to humans, you're not free and you never will be. That's why you're inferior, pieces of junk and nothing else. But enough talk now. Now I kill you, worm. "
