Personality[edit]
Being a low noise weapon packing devastating 9x39mm caliber subsonic rounds, 防弹乳牛 comments saying that all of her usual personality and desires are all hidden deep beneath her quiet and introverted demeanor. (因为是微声自动步枪,又有强大火力,所以设计的时候考虑是表面看起来很无口,大概实际性格是闷骚,隐藏的很深的那种。)
With an introverted personality, she tends to keep her feelings hidden and rarely talks about herself, often resulting in being alone. Secretly, she craves for everybody's recognition, especially the Commander's. To her, the Commander's image is very important and irreplaceable. Her desires for the Commander's attention have reached a state that can be classified as overly attached. One has to request permission before leaving her field of view.
She only shares her thoughts and feelings with close friends (AR AS ValAS ValAS Val), including the Commander. Her behaviors toward her comrades are different from the way she behaves in front of her close friends.
Her introduction mentions "a whole series of prototypes", which seem to be a reference to all the discontinued 9A-91 derivatives designed to chamber other cartridge types, such as the 7.62×39mm M43 (7.62A-91), 5.45x39 M74 (5.45A-91), 5.56x45mm NATO (5.56A-91) and even the 7.62×25mm PM Makarov. Her secretary quote mentions 74. This is very likely to be AK-74, forecasting the potential release of AK-74 (or AKSU) T-doll.
Story Involvement[edit]
9A made her debut appearance as a side character in the story during the prologue of Continuum Turbulence (chronologically lies towards the end of Singularity), further interactions are in chapter 2 of CT.
Continuum Turbulence[edit]
1200-1300 hour of Singularity, before the makeshift Collapse bomb detonation, SOCOM units had already broken through the HQ defense line of G&K. With the Commander busy fighting Major Yegor's elite mechanized soldiers at the front line, the task of HQ perimeter defense is left to the logistic officer Kalina.
Following the plan, Kalina organized retreats for the remaining G&K T-Dolls within sector S09. She gathered up two squadrons to defend set locations and ensure the successful retreat of larger forces. 9A and SMG ThompsonThompsonThompson are leaders of the two squadrons. 9A's detachment is sent to defense point 2, while Thompson was sent to point 3. Over radio contact, 9A said that without a human commander, they cannot perform effective counterattacks. Under these dire situations, Kalina volunteered herself to command these two squadrons. Both Thompson and 9A commended her for her bravery, and soon they began their defense against the KCCO forces.
However, the sheer difference in firepower was too great between G&K's civilian-based dolls and KCCO's military-grade arsenal. G&K's defense line was soon breached after KCCO's armored tanks arrived on the front line. The plan was for the two detachments to retreat after encountering tanks. However, a great amount of T-Dolls had yet to retreat from the HQ. Not only are the T-Dolls in danger, but even the Commander is also still in the field command post nearby.
A miracle happened, 9A had spotted a ray of light at the horizon, followed by a shockwave, then a large sound of an explosion. A moment later, the T-Dolls regained their communication functions. It would appear that the T-Dolls were saved by this mysterious green light. Kalina ordered 9A and Thompson to take this chance and reform their defense line.
...
Even though the KCCO units suffered major losses after the green flash, soon a new faction fully covered in bright white armor appeared on the battlefield, boasting advanced high-tech weaponry, airdropped infrastructures, and most importantly, equipped with what seems to be invulnerability force fields. Under the attack from this new faction, the connection between the base and their forward units is lost once again. At the same time, the front-line T-Dolls had also realized their access to G&K Digi-mind servers was also lost. If they were to fall in battle now, they will die, permanently.
9A's unit was now trapped within defense point 2. This location had come under concentrated enemy artillery fire. Various airdropped infrastructures had also taken root within the perimeter. With the KCCO units on retreat, the Commander had also shifted his focus on rescuing the trapped T-Dolls near the HQ. He organized a rescue party headed by a former elite T-Doll who now serves the mysterious task force 404, AR HK416HK416HK416. While 416 was briefing and organizing the rescue plan on defense point 2, 9A was oblivious to the rescue effort. Without access to Digi-mind backups, she and her T-Doll comrades resort to recording memories via physical means.
"The bombardment... still has not ended? Can't seem to hear anything else anymore.", she finished up the sentence on her diary, looked around the room, then decided to hide it under an ammunition box. "Commander... won't be coming anymore right...? AK-74U and Val, I'm out of chances now, I hope when I wake up again, this diary is still intact. I hope I can still remember you two next time."
...
The Commander managed to punch a hole in the enemy's siege, and the rescue party took the chance to enter the perimeter. However, the inexperienced and makeshift squadron was soon separated under the continuous bombardment from enemy artillery. Only 416 managed to enter the building. She rushed up to the defender's safe room, kicked the door open in one swoop. "9A91, take your girls, we're leaving, follow me!" approached by the unfamiliar looking T-Doll, she questioned, "And you are...", "Rescuer from G&k." 416 interrupts her, "Quit wasting time, apart from ammo and weapon, throw away everything else, hurry it up!". 9A followed 416's request and ordered her subordinates to do exactly this. Soon they departed from the safe room following 416's lead.
Having escaped from the house, 9A is reunited with her friend 74U. 74U apologized for being so late to her rescue. After being questioned by 9A why there are only two of them here, 416 replied that she brought a small squad with her, but she just can't seem to get in touch with them after being separated by the artillery strike. Right after 416 commented, they came under attack by the enemy. 9A was wounded after being hit by a gunshot. Luckily, the rest of the rescue squadron arrived in time to assist. 9A being carried by AR A-91A-91A-91 and RF Mk 12Mk 12Mk 12, together broke the siege and escaped to a safe zone.
9A delivered her share of information on the battlefield after she was briefly repaired. HK416 prepared to move for defense point 3 to rescue Thompson while 9A returned to the HQ for further repairs. Together with the rest of G&K's forces, she later took part in the final assault against the mysterious new faction's army, against the identified black android. After G&K had regrouped, they finally retreated out of sector S09 that afternoon.
