(Corky: music stop...)

You both seemed to stare for a moment...sure...joy had filled your heart as you looked above to see your defiant spider intact...but somthing felt...off

Y/N: s-...scuttles...?

You spoke the name you had given it...but...maybe what you were seeing was just an illusion...

But why...could you see him?

Y/N: n-...no...that cant be...!

9: Y/N, describe what you are seeing...

You couldnt believe it...but out of instict...you uttered his name...Your once...name

With a few shifts of his hand...Tank changed Scuttles right before your eyes...

Pannels around its body shifted to reveal a threatening underglow as the weapons moved to form a deadlier look...

Y/N: w-what is i-

9: get down...

9 swiped her right hand. Forcefully taking control of your left knee to bend to make you fall into the snow.

Y/N: W-WHA-

In shock you let out a quick yell...but your words were cut off as a "you-sized" beam flew right above you...

A ray of bright blue first melted, then singed the ground you were once standing close so as you looked back at Scuttles...

Y/N: n-no!- scuttles...!

9: that is no longer the machine:"MR.SCUTTLES" Y/N...

You turned to face 9...a-as a wicked smile stained her otherwise usual calm demeanor...Your expression showing horror as 9's gaze continued to look in pure spectacular speculation.
