Story/Operation Cube/E1-4 (Part3)/Script

[At Area S06 Sangvis command center.]

Agent: ...The main force in Area S06 has been defeated and the command center is on the verge of collapse.
We have lost against Griffin and Squad 404.
Although, I’m not surprised at this result at all...

Ouroboros, this is your first and will be your last mission. You have failed completely.

Ouroboros: ...I’m very sorry for not being able to protect the jammer.

Agent: It’s not a big deal. Truth to be told, the jammer has already been moved back to HQ.

Ouroboros: What?!
The jammer...was clearly destroyed in that explosion!

Agent: Many things cannot be anticipated when you are so careless.
But you have to understand, we are different from Griffin. Second chances don’t come that easily.

Ouroboros: You’re getting rid of me, aren’t you...?

Agent: I simply...understand your thought process quite well.
Do you have any last words?

Ouroboros: ...
Curse you...
Curse you! Sangvis, Griffin, Squad 404!
I have never been wronged like this in my entire life!
Gr G11, UMP9, 416, UMP45!
You rats that only know how to scurry in the shadows!
I will not lose like this! I will escape and have my revenge!

???: Sorry, that’s not going to happen.

UMP45: Nice to meet you. I’m UMP45 from Squad 404.

Ouroboros: ......
So you’re the rumored UMP45...
For someone like you that has conducted so many successful covert operations, you must be a cold-blooded monster.

UMP45: No one willingly becomes a monster.
It is precisely because I’m not that cool that I’ve been able to keep myself alive.

Ouroboros: I still don’t understand...how you escaped the explosion unscathed.

UMP45: I took a little advantage of...Dolls’ emotions.

Executioner: What awaits Dolls like us is neither heaven nor hell.
Squad 404...you will disappear from this world along with me...

UMP45: Wait! Maybe we can talk?
What if I told you we have Hunter in our hands?

Executioner: ...What?!

UMP45: Ouroboros cut off Hunter’s consciousness, but she is still alive and we are taking good care of her.

Executioner: What...does that have to do with me?

UMP45: Let’s be honest, you want to save Hunter, don’t you?
Furthermore, you are completely capable of doing so with your authority.

Executioner: You want me to betray my mission?

UMP45: At least you have the choice, right?

Executioner: ......
It seems that you understand us quite well.

UMP45: ♪ So...do we have a deal?

Executioner: Hand over Hunter and get lost within two minutes. Don’t get in my way of retrieving the jammer.

Ouroboros: Hahaha, what a joke!
Why would Executioner betray me for a worthless Doll?

UMP45: Executioner didn’t betray you. She received a higher priority directive.
Sangvis Dolls have never been emotionless killing machines.
Especially the innovative designs like Hunter and Executioner. Being able to help each other means they can stay alive longer on the battlefield.
That’s why she saved Hunter instead.

Ouroboros: How do you know all this? You even know more about the priority of Sangvis authority than I do...

UMP45: I don’t, actually. I simply gambled on it.
Perhaps...this is Agent’s insurance for keeping you in check.

Do you feel defeated? We both abandoned our original missions, yet we ended up with completely opposite results.

Ouroboros: I have always wanted to prove myself, but in the end, I ended up being used by you.
You...are a stain on me, 404...

UMP45: Sorry.
We are a stain on everyone.
But too bad those that want to erase us and not rely on us...
...End up being erased themselves.

[...]

UMP9: Hey, 45, done yet?

UMP45: It’s finished. Where are the others?

HK416: OTs-14 is already on her way back to HQ. I’ll go retrieve Gr G11 now.

G11: You’re taking too long, 416... Did you forget about me...?

HK416: Thank you for reminding me. I actually did forget.
Why don’t you take a nap and come back by yourself later?

G11: Uwaa... Come get me... It’s too cold here...

HK416: The mission is finally complete, but it’s a bit of a shame that we weren’t able to capture the jammer.

G11: 416... Are you listening? Come get me...

UMP45: With Ouroboros’s corpse and all the intel we’ve gathered throughout the entire mission, I think it’ll be enough to satisfy Helian.

UMP9: It’s definitely enough. Let’s get out of here before the Commander shows up~

UMP45: Good job everyone. Let’s go home.

[...]

G11: Umm...guys? Are you still there?
Don’t leave me here... I wanna go home...

[...]
[Ten minutes after the conclusion of Griffin’s Operation Cube.]
[In Area S06 Sangvis command center...]

Dreamer: Hello, anyone still here?
Heyyyy~!
Ah...everyone’s gone...
Agent, they’re all gone. You sure your eyes weren’t playing tricks on you?

Agent: I can confirm in the video recording that Squad 404 came into contact with the jammer.
The “program” has indeed infected that Doll.
Parapluie can finally be moved on to the next phase.

Dreamer: So the entire point of this operation was to infect a T-Doll with the “program”.
Having gone to such great lengths to hide it, I doubt anyone will notice...
I’m truly no match for you, Agent.

Agent: Do what you’re supposed to do, unless you want to end up like Ouroboros.

Dreamer: Hehe, it was a pity that this happened with Ouroboros.
I thought she was quite promising. I didn’t expect her to cause such a big racket.

Agent: ...The incompetent will always be destroyed by their own ignorance.
There is no need to be responsible for their failure if they cannot even reflect on this point.
The night is coming to an end. Let it all vanish to darkness.
