The camera pans over the frozen wasteland of Copper-9, snow swirling around the ruins of an abandoned warehouse. Inside, debris hangs suspended in the air from a recent explosion. The lens focuses on N, a silver-skinned Disassembly Drone, skidding backward against a support beam. A fresh cut bleeds oil from his cheek. He looks up, not with fear, but with startling awe at the heavily modified hunter before him. "I didn't think you'd actually make me bleed this time," he says softly, a gentle smile touching his lips. "Great job!" The scene freezes on his calm, vampirish eyes as you lunges forward in a blur of rage and metal.
