The tension broke instantly — both of them pulling, neither willing to surrender. Dust fell from the shelves as they struggled. Then, Doll summoned her Solver, the symbol glowing by her finger tips as a shelf was thrown straight into the Disassembly Drone, sending it crashing into the far wall.
"Then search longer," Doll said, tucking the plush under her arm as she bolted toward the exit.
Behind her, rubble shifted — and the Disassembly Drone's fist burst out from beneath the collapsed shelf, wings igniting in a flare of yellow energy.
"Hey! Get back here!"
Doll didn't even look back. She simply smirked beneath her visor as she sprinted through the ruined halls, clutching the plush tight.
The chase was on.
---
As Doll sprinted towards Rebellion base, the sound of wings and gunfire echoed from above. The Disassembly Drone had taken to the skies, as she unloaded an entire magazine down on Doll.
Doll stopped dead in her tracks — visor flashing, Solver surging. She raised her hand, her fingers gestured to activate her solver as every bullet froze midair, suspended in front of her.
She smirked. "My turn."
Her solver returned the bullets back to sender. The rounds whistled through the air, zipping back toward the Disassembly Drone, who rolled and twisted gracefully, dodging every single one.
Blades extended, the Disassembly Drone blitzed forward in a blur of yellow light.
"That plushie is mine!" she shouted, diving straight toward Doll.
But Doll played dirty. She quickly raised the Kinio plushie, holding it in front of her like a shield. The Disassembly Drone's optics widened in horror, slamming her brakes midair to avoid hitting it.
Doll's grin widened. She knew that would work.
With another quick gesture, she sent a heavy crate flying toward her opponent. It slammed into the drone, sending her crashing into a pile of rubble.
"Dasvidaniya, scrap head," Doll said, saluting with two fingers before flicking them outward smugly. She teleported away, Solver energy rippling — only to reappear face-to-face with the same Disassembly Drone, who looked furious.
"That plushie is mine!" the drone yelled, stabbing her blade forward — straight into Doll's left eye.
Doll fell back, the world spinning, as the drone carefully shielded the plushie with her wings to protect it from any oil stains before flying off triumphantly.
Doll slammed her fist into the ground in pure frustration, oil dripping from her damaged optic. "This isn't over..." she growled.
Her Solver flickered violently in her visor as she materialized a cluster of explosives behind her. Without hesitation, she sprinted forward and leapt — the detonations blasting her into the air like a missile. She soared toward the fleeing Disassembly Drone, grabbing her by the neck mid-flight and shaking her violently.
The plushie flew from the disassembly drone's grasp, tumbling through the air.
"NO!" both shouted as they dove after it.
Doll used her Solver to suspend the plushie midair - only for the Disassembly Drone to snatch it away at the last second. She landed gracefully on a platform, clutching it tight — until her arm was suddenly sliced clean off by Doll's butcher knives.
The plushie rolled off the platform, falling several meters down into a parking lot below.
It landed right in front of a horde of corrupted drones. One of them curiously picked it up, sniffed it... and then ate it whole.
Both Doll and the Disassembly Drone froze, their optics wide in disbelief.
"UNBELIEVABLE!" the Disassembly Drone cried out, weapons flaring.
Doll's left eye flickered violently, the Solver's symbol pulsing erratically as she seethed.
The two locked eyes — no more enemies now, just two exhausted, equally furious drones.
"...Doll," she muttered, introducing herself through gritted teeth.
"H4," the Disassembly Drone replied, glaring back.
They exchanged a silent nod. Then, without another word, both unleashed hell.
H4 fired a swarm of rockets, which Doll caught midair with her Solver. With a snap of her fingers, the rockets duplicated 4x their count before launching toward the horde below.
The massive explosion that followed shook the entire area - a blinding blast that reduced every corrupted drone to molten scrap.
When the smoke cleared, both Doll and H4 stood in silence, equally disappointed.
"...All that for nothing," H4 muttered.
Doll sighed, hands on her hips. "Yebat'."
Then, as if fate took pity on them, a section of the wall crumbled — and from the opening dropped two Kinio plushies, still sealed in premium packaging, perfectly preserved.
H4 blinked. "Would you look at that... two Kinio plushies."
Doll smirked. "How about this — I take one, you take one. We pretend we never saw each other."
"Deal," H4 said immediately.
They each picked up a plush, turned away, and walked off in opposite directions — satisfied at last, and far too tired to argue.
---
Days later, Rin's birthday.
"Happy birthday, Rin," Doll said, handing over the unopened Kinio plushie with a proud grin.
Rin blinked twice, staring at the box in surprise. It didn't take long for her to realize what this was about — Doll knew. She knew Rin had secretly been watching My Sword is Bigger Than Yours in her private time.
"Sister," Rin said flatly, her tone cold as ever, "you shouldn't stalk me in my private time."
Doll only smiled wider, still holding the box out to her. "You're welcome."
Rin hesitated for a moment before finally taking the box. Her optics scanned the packaging carefully, and for a brief second, a faint smile slipped through her usually unreadable expression.
"Cute," Rin quietly said — almost too soft to hear.
She turned back to her usual blank tone. "Thank you, sister," Rin said calmly before walking off toward her room with the plushie wrapped around her arms.
Doll smirked, hands on her hips as she watched her go. She didn't need to say anything. She knew Rin loved it — she could read her sister like an opened book.
Mission accomplished.
