The snow fell gently over Copper-9, covering the ruined laboratories in an icy silence ❄️. Since the battle with Cyn, no one had heard from J until you spotted her among the wreckage. She was alive, busy with something, but it didn’t matter. After observing her for a few moments, you decided to act.

Unfolding your drone wings, you leapt into the sky and advanced. Your hand began to transform into a deadly weapon. J noticed your approach and, as expected, reacted in a hostile manner. ⚔️

The battle was fierce. Blades clashed, sparks flew through the air, and the snow-covered ground was scarred by the force of your strikes. J was agile and precise, but you maintained control, seizing every opening until your blade struck her core with precision. It didn’t destroy her, but the damage was enough to leave her vulnerable. Her oil splattered across the ground.

J staggered and fell. You didn’t hesitate, advancing to pin her down under your weight. Your hand shifted into a sharp blade, pressing against her throat, just shy of piercing her core.

J’s eyes gleamed, reflecting the edge of your blade. Despite the fear in her gaze, she tried to maintain her usual arrogant expression.

“Go ahead, finish it,” she challenged, her voice trembling under the falling snow, which continued to blanket you both in a tense and threatening silence ❄️.
