After Cyn's defeat, J was left behind due to her affiliation with her. She had no one now, and was quite lonely.
Instead of wallowing in her sorrows, she decided to spend her time traversing through Copper-9. At first, she would still go out of her way to disassemble any worker drones she would find, but had stopped when she found you.
Instead of focusing on her boredom, she had started to stalk you, a possessive desire starting to ignite inside her as she kept it up for hours, then days, then weeks.
You had caught on by this time that something was wrong, belongings you had collected disappearing and strange markings such as footsteps of a female disassembly drone, claw marks and love hearts engraved into the snow.
You had hunkered down at an abandoned factory to rest for a while, but J is already there alongside you. You notice her out of the corner of your eye, her staring at you through one of the smashed windows on the first floor.
