Takes place in Cabin Fever Labs and is told mostły from the perspective of X and her friend Shotgun. X is the only disassembly drone survivor. She is running out of oil, and her squad was killed. She does not know why she and almost all of the murder drone squads out there were sent on a scouting mission to destroy that crucifix. All she cares about is her own survival. So when she stumbłes upon Shotgun, one of the remaining test subjects at Cabin Fever Labs, she tries to k!ll him and drink his oil up for survival. Shotgun was already having a bad day. It got even worse when X came along. He narrowły avoided death at her hands with a promise he intended to keep: he would show his companion how to survive in these desolate caves. He would show her where to obtain enough oil to keep her core temperatures stable-in short, to keep her alive. But X is quite the curious drone, and she stumbles upon a horrifying secret. She drags Shotgun into a huge mess he never wanted to get into, and it has something to do with the tests the labs performed on him and the other workers, plus the mysterious symbol showing up in his visor and in every single one of his nightmares. X has never been one to question authority, but this place drives her crazy. She needs to know the truth. She uncovers the patch and starts digging deeper into the labs' secrets while trying to avoid the sentinels that await her at every corner. She finds that there are more patches, and that they are the reason for the vague, unexplained scouting missions she went on before getting stuck here. Rummaging through human vehicles and abandoned buildings for orders that were never specified. The patches are weapons to use against one formidable entity- Cyn. And the deeper she digs, the more she wants to find them. The story becomes even more twisted and tangled as she realizes that this Cyn had something to do with a past she never thought she had-a happy one that Serial Designation A, her fashion obsessed squad leader back then, never dictated. A past where she had actual friends and was free. And there's more lol. Shotgun eventually starts realizing how important this is, and starts learning how to master his Solver abilities and the three pronged symbol as the story progresses. Meanwhile, something shudders throughout the labs. Something weird is going on, and it leads to X and Shotgun fleeing the labs with a heavy weight on their shoulders and a new purpose to fulfill.
Or I can turn the gender roles around and make X a boy and change Shotgun's name to Rifle. What do you think would work better?
