When Ibuki came to after her blackout out she noticed that she was no longer on the floor but sitting in a chair with her ninja outfit neatly folded on a nearby table. There was also the kunai that she had noticed as well before her sudden blackout.
"Seems like the test was a success after all!" Dantom exclaimed as he looked over Ibuki.
"Test? What test are you talking about Dantom!" Ibuki demanded.
Then Ibuki noticed the smirk that was on Dantom's face.
"How did I know your name despite being sure this is the first time I have met you" Ibuki stated
Also, she noticed that she was merely sitting in the chair as she was not tied down nor was she restrained in any way at the moment. She was merely sitting down calmly with her hands in her lap at the moment. She also noticed that she was dressed in the same attire that she noticed she noticed Marz was dressed in at the moment.
'That is not her real name. Her real name is Ma...Ma...huh!?' Ibuki thought.
"Having trouble recalling Marz's name or it is that you think her name is something else other than it should be?" Dantom inquired as if he were reading her mind at that very moment.
Ibuki still did not fully realize that she was not moving from her chair despite knowing she should not just be calmly sitting her at the moment.
"I really like messing with you... but playtime is over!" the scientist noted. He desperately wanted to test her more. To see how broken she was. But. Time was precious at the moment. "We need to get to work after all."
"I do not work for you, master. I work for your master." Ibuki said before covering her mouth all of a sudden.
The first movement her hand made this entire time other than just sitting in her lap.
"This is most certainly interesting to see..." Dantom said with a pleased look on his face "That last remains of your original self finally being overwritten for good."
Ibuki then looked scared at the moment.
"Oh did you think that you were sneaking around this base without anyone noticing you at all? That was not the case at all, as you were carrying out a role that I had set for you to do. You're just during that assignment. I decided to use you as part of the test Arata and ensure the complete erasure of Alina Cole!" he explained, glee dripping from each word.
He then walked over and picked up the lying kunai from where it lay and walked over to Ibuki.
"Hey do you know what it is and can you tell me that right now" he demanded.
"That is me I am a tool to be used as my purpose is to serve as a tool and a weapon" the ninja emotionally explained.
"I am YOUR tool!" Ibuki then yelled out. Once again, she covered her mouth unable to believe that she was not able to say what she wanted to really say yet again. Her mind and body seem to be out of sync with it getting worse than it was before.
"Want to know what's really wrong with you?" Dantom asked sadistically.
He then gestures over to a TV screen where Ibuki is able to see herself strapped to the Dolls creation device and see herself struggling before eventually her body goes limp. Once the helmet is removed from her head. The image she sees is of herself with an expression no different than Marz at the moment. Her eyes are empty and vacant as she no longer sees any life within them as her mind has been fully converted into that of a Dolls.
"Also, notice the time stamp on the video? Look over to see what today's date is." Dantom told her. Looking Ibuki said that it had been almost a week since then meaning that she had already fallen and that she was possibly no longer herself anymore.
"The reason your body and even your mind seem out of sync... is because you are no longer in control of yourself anymore. I am merely allowing the last true bits of yourself to see what you have become before they are gone for good. You put up a good fight but in the end, fate just was not on your side. As if Saru never came to be under my control then you might have really been able to get away. Rather than ensuring that no one else can use the blind spot that we had in regards to ninjas and others like yourself"
Ibuki no longer said anything as she just sat there with lifeless eyes staring straight ahead at nothing.
"Kunai report!" Dantom ordered.
"The last remnants of the junk data have been purged." The lifeless version of Ibuki's voice said monotonously. Her body is still.
"Good! Now that those wholes have been covered, there is no need for you to retain them anymore. To carry out any role where Ibuki is needed you merely require no knowledge of who she was to merely act as her. There is no need for you to ever be Ibuki ever again, Kunai." he said
"I am Dolls 15, Kunai. A mere weapon to be used by my masters Dantom and Lord Bison. I am merely a part of the Shadalooo arsenal and nothing more." she lifelessly stated with conviction.
Dantom then started to laugh as everything Ibuki thought she knew was merely false memories and half truths he created to ensure she never left the base. Even if she did she would not have gotten far as, unlike Alina Cole who actually managed to regain control of herself for real. That is until Arata decided that he wanted to be with Marz instead of Alina. In the end, Ibuki was never truly in control of herself. Given the proper triggers, she could be switched off or to Kunai at a moment's notice.
