[b]Alice[/b]

Alice raised an eyebrow, not expecting this kind of reaction at all from the little girl. Shouldn't be more pants-wetting fear, or gibberish screams? She seemed all set to do that just a minute ago.

...Well. whatever.

"...Alice," the doll supplied her name, "well, if you know what I am, then that simplifies things. I want you to help me with the extermination of the Puppeteers. In return, I will act as your shield. No fluff, no contracts, just that."
Asking such a thing from this little girl didn't sit entirely well with Alice, but... if she knew about Dolls, it made things much easier for them both. Plus, Alice had no desire to let any danger befall anyone she would have partnered with. She had plenty of faith in her ability to protect this girl, but...

Alice folded her arms, "Additionally, I would suggest that you don't try and befriend me or whatever. That won't end well for either of us, so use me only as a shield and nothing more, please."

[b]Ada[/b]

Arms shaking wildly with fear, Ada watched, wide-eyed, as the strange little girl unloaded a volley of explosive shots onto the older woman. That... that couldn't be possible, could it? What kind of gun could shoot like that?! That girl... oh no, she'd turned her attention to Ada now. Yeah, no way the knife would help at all.
The scary girl, calling herself 'Dead Heart Shooter', was approaching and speaking, but Ada could barely comprehend the words. She took a step back, ready to make a dash towards... somewhere that wasn't here. Somewhere that didn't have all this frightening madness.

But the woman that Dead Heart Shooter had blasted... she was still alive? And... and her arm, it was now a giant blade. She... she wan't human, either. Ada fell to her knees, overwhelmed by how... alien this situation was. She had never heard of anything like these people. Unless they were monsters. Yeah, monsters made sense. She was just being attacked by monsters. Of course.
