Murder Drone – Fanmade Novel
Chapter 2: The Judgment
The sky split open.
A scream of engines tore across the freezing snow wasteland as a sleek black ship descended through the storm. Snow exploded outward as it landed near the Nest.
E stiffened.
“…who is here to distribute our time” he muttered.
S went completely still.
Remee blinked.
“…What is that sound ?”
The hatch of the ship opened.
Click.
Click.
Click.
A figure stepped down into the snow.
Long claws. Perfect posture. A glowing yellow optic sharp as a blade.
J.
Her voice was smooth and cold.
“Commander S.”
The air itself felt tense.
“You were authorised to eliminate all,” J continued. “And yet… I detect a worker drone alive in your territory.”
Her optic shifted.
Directly onto Remee.
“…Explain.”
Remee swallowed.
S stepped slightly in front of her.
“She is not infected or nor host.”
J optic narrowed.
“That was not the question.”
E quietly moved to S side.
J took another step forward.
“Still playing hero, S?” she said softly. “I remember the last time.”
For the first time, S optic flicker.
Remee looked between them.
“…Last time?... What she mean?”
J smiled faintly.
“Commander S once refused to eliminate a worker colony. Claimed they were ‘innocent. But at the end the one worker drone kill it own people and so"
“He was punished for that.”
Silence fill the air
Remee core tightened.
“…You didn’t tell me that.”
S didn’t answer.
J lifted her hand.
“Orders are absolute. This worker is an anomaly. the solver possesses weapon that technology beyond standard capacity and she has a weapon that can kill us but not destory and dangerous.”
Remee instinctively tightened her grip on her Atomic Gun.
“I made it myself!”
J vanished.
SLAM—
Remee was thrown into the snow.
S moved instantly, blocking J next strike.
“Enough.”
Metal clashed. Wings screeched.
E joined the fight, knocking J backward.
“You always ruin family reunions,” E muttered.
The snowstorm intensified as the three Disassembly Drones clashed midair.
Remee struggled up.
“STOP! You’re destroying everything!”
J broke through their defense and lunged—
Remee ran between them.
“WAIT—!”
A claw pierced through her side.
Silence.
Time and air froze.
S optic wided.
Remee looked down slowly at the metal claw embedded in her torso.
“…Is this my end.”
J pulled back instantly, surprised.
Remee collapsed into the snow.
Oil spread across white ice.
S caught her before she hit the ground.
“Remee!”
Her vision flickered.
“…You guys fight too much…” she whispered weakly.
Her optic dimmed.
S voice changed.
Not angry
Just… afraid to lose.
“You will not die.”
E landed beside him, stunned.
“…That wasn’t supposed to—”
S voice heavy " This is what you want E"
"No—" i didn't—" E tries to talk more but silent
J hovered silently, watching.
S stood.
Holding Remee carefully.
His wings unfolded.
“I am done following blind orders.”
J optic sharpened.
“You are committing treason.”
S didn’t respond.
He launched into the sky.
Flight Through the Storm
Wind roared past as S flew at maximum speed.
Remee’s core was destabilizing.
S screen scanner
ERROR. CORE FAILURE: 37%
“I don’t know where her residence is ,” S muttered." that is gonna be hard"
Below, a figure ran through the snow.
Asher.
He saw him and turned and ran.
S dropped in front of him instantly.
Asher froze.
“You—!”
Then he saw her.
Remee in S arms. Oil leaking. Body limp.
Asher expression twisted.
“You hurt her!”
He attacked.
S caught his strike easily.
“STOP!” S roared.
“Can you not see she is dying?!”
Asher froze.
Snow blew between them.
“…What? it is your work and she got hurt because you!”
S voice lowered.
“It is true she was injured because of us. But if you wish her alive, help me.”
Asher looked at Remee.
His anger disappear.
“…Fine.”
S grabbed him.
“Hold onto me.”
They shot into the sky.
The Quarantine Gate
The bunker lights glowed ahead.
Guard drones immediately raised weapons.
“Halt! Identify yourself!”
Asher shouted, “He’s with me! He’s our friend!”
The guards hesitated.
“…A Disassembly Drone?”
Asher yelled, “JUST OPEN THE GATE!”
They saw Remee.
Her body hanging lifeless.
the guard press a button.
The gates opened.
Malik
The doors burst open as S carried her inside.
Malik turned.
He froze.
Everything went silent.
“…Remee?”
S gently laid her down.
Malik rushed forward, hands shaking.
“What happened to her?!”
Asher tried to speak but couldn’t.
S stepped forward.
“She was caught in combat. Her core is failing.”
Malik optic flickered violently.
“You brought a Murder Drone into my home.”
His voice wasn’t angry.
It was deadly calm.
“If she dies—”
S knelt.
“…Then I will accept any punishment.”
Malik stared at him.
Then at his daughter.
He moved instantly, activating emergency tools.
“Help me stabilize her core.”
S obeyed without hesitation.
Hours felt like centuries.
Finally—
Beep.
Remee screen
Core Stabilized: 62%
Remee optic flickered faintly.
Malik nearly collapsed in relief.
“…You reckless child why you have to scared me.”
He looked at S.
“You saved her.”
S stood silently.
“…I will continue to do so sir.”
Malik studied him long and hard.
“…Then you better mean that.”
Meanwhile – Outside
J stood atop the ruined Nest.
E landed beside her.
“…So. Are we reporting him?”
J was quiet.
Snow fell around her.
“…No.”
E blinked.
“No?”
J optic dimmed slightly.
“Commander S has chosen his path.”
She turned toward the bunker lights glowing in the distance.
“And I want to see how far he’s willing to fall.”
E grinned slowly.
“Oh… this is getting interesting.”
Far away, inside the bunker—
Remee fingers twitched.
And her core pulsed once again but a yellow light glow not her but who.
Somewhere inside a facility
