I haven't commandeered a Tactical Doll since Season 1. So, I was a bit sluggish in the movement department, occasionally I would trip and fall due to the specific modifications that this variant had. If memory serves me right, this model was the 'Combat Maid' model that was stolen from me in the last 'Clan Wars'. This model is the first of its kind where it closely mimics the human psyche, the perfect 'Infiltrator' type for covert operations.
"So, getting the hang of 'Commandeering' the very Tdoll prototype that I stole under your nose?"
The feminine voice giggled lightly as she spun me around to face her.
"Anyways before we get down to business, there are a few things I need you to do so if you could look this way."
I quickly activated my 'ID scanner' to confirm her identity and as I would guess it, it was 'her' after all.
“So, it was you after all. The infamous Gvene, also known as the ‘Stalker’. Gvene blushed while fidgeting her thumbs.
“Aww, Staph it. You’re making me blush. You know, I never really like that nickname. Plus, I don't stalk my prey. I scout them.”
Yep that’s Gvene alright. Nothing about her had changed much, she still has that same old short black hair and the odd combination of red and green eyes. The one thing I notice that was different was that she wasn’t wearing her usual combat gear, instead she was wearing some fantasy like armor that felt like it was made for ‘Rogues’. What made the getup up weird is that she is still wearing that GOD-AWFUL Green Beret cap.
Gvene took out a small square device from her back pouch.
“Alright, Try following the square with your head.”
As she said that, she started moving the device from the top of her head to the bottom of her waist. She finished the motion by moving the square to her left and right side. I immediately followed suit and each time I connect with her hand motion the square would light up green. The green indicates that there were no abnormalities with the Tdoll model to which Gvene let out a breath of relief.

“Thank god that Tdoll model is still operable after centuries of gathering rust. You are sure something when it comes to durability.”
She gestured me to follow her towards a terribly makeshift shooting range.
“Alright, the next step is to have you get familiar with this body. Try shooting some targets I hastily put up.”
She handed me a modified M16A1 with an FSS 11.5" Commando Barrel attached with a 5mW Laser and Commando Foregrip. A Smart Scope was installed on top of the receiver rail which scans for hostile targets within a short range, locking onto them automatically. I saw that she converted the normal M16 mags into a 9mm Para 31-Round Mags. She replaced the standard M16A1 with her Forge Tac CQS Stock.
I used my right hand to hold the Rubberized Grip Tape which have a Short circuit wireless ID built into it to prevent my firearms from falling into the wrong hands.

My Heads-Up Display was soon updated with the weapon name, clip size and magazine reserve in the bottom right of my view. To the left side, I could see my Health and Armor. My mini map somehow changed from the top left to the top right side of my view. I lost my motion tracker since my current ranks is still low. The top left side will be vacant for the time being and it will take some time for me to readjust myself to the new function’s placements.
Gvene began poking my cheek.
“Herrrooow? Earth to Umu. You there?”
I waved off the finger that she was using to poke my cheek.
“Yes, yes. I’m here. I just got overwhelmed by a lot of the functions that appeared in my HUD.”
I glanced over at my weapon once more.
[M16A1 ‘Smart’ CQC
31/360]
“31 in the clip and 360 mags in the reserve. I should be careful of how I spent my shots.” I silently muttered to myself.
I took aim at the first three targets in front of me; A rabbit with a horn on its head mounted onto a makeshift wooden plank, a large black bird hanging upside down from a large tree branch and a very large bear like creature in the far back.
To conserve the ammo in my clip, I toggled from automatic mode to semi-mode so I can shoot one bullet per trigger pull. I also toggled the ‘Headshot’ option on my Smart scope and instantly three red circles popped into my vision on the three targets head. I quickly snapped my rifle at each target pulling the trigger once per snap. All three bullets impacted the heads in under 3 seconds.
I turned around to face Gvene, only to met with her jaw gaped open in surprise.
“What the fuck was THAT?”
I smirked and grinned at her while letting out some chuckle of amusement at the same time.
“I’ll tell you after you tell me how the hell you are here, alive and kicking.”
I furrowed my eyebrows after saying that and I followed up with one more comment.
“There was no way that you are reincarnated.”
