A voice, high and unhinged, rang out from the shadows surrounding Teto. "A woman... yes... I used to kill those. It's been so long... I haven't been out... those digimon... they turn into dust, but you can... kill them over and over again..."
With a heavy clang, Barry the Chopper emerged from the darkness.
"... Hiiii...."

"Go away. Teto-chan claimed this spot first, so find your own spot."
But then, his words registered in her mind ... from those words, she could assume what he intended to try. And though she remained silent for several moments, her breath hitching ... eventually, she couldn't help but laugh.
"Kill! Ha! HA! So you want to kill Teto-chan?" She gave off a laugh that seemed almost inhuman (and it probably wasn't, considering the robot that she really was); the truth here was that the real, true Teto was cowering.
The virus was taking over. The chimera was beginning to show. And the wings and tail that she was usually able to hide under the guise of her normal self were beginning to show.
She smirked.
"Try it."

Barry let out a shrill laugh before launching himself at Teto, swinging his machete at her in a wide arc.

But then, she growled. Her pigtails became drills. And she screamed in rage.
"YOU'LL PAY FOR THIS! TETO-CHAN WILL MAKE YOU PAY!"

This person. She wasn't human. Like... some horrible creature made of only automail.
Or half of the meatless creatures in this entire damn city. His Demon Seal pulsed. He had been fooled. He wanted to hurt someone human.
"LIES! HORRIBLE LIES!" he roared, charging at Teto with the intent of backing her into the rear of the alley. "I'LL PUNISH YOU FOR LYING!"
Reply
"NO LIES HERE!" She screamed. This was a last ditch effort. The conscious part of Teto, the real, humanlike part of her, knew that this might mean she'd be completely dismembered, and shut down as a result. And that part of her was frightened.
Because that part of her knew how alone she really was. That part of her knew that there was nobody who would be willing to put her back together if it came to that. Things were ruined with Dell, and it wasn't like any of the others actually cared enough.
And none of her fellow UTAU were here to help her ...
She really was alone.
On the outside, though? The Chimera was far from realizing that as she charged right in and tried to land some sort of hit on her attacker.

But that didn't stop Barry. He sliced, chopped, and cut relentlessly, forcing Teto back against the rear wall of the alley with every hit.
"LITTLE GIRL LIES ABOUT BEING HUMAN! AT LEAST I HAVE THE SENSE TO LOOK LIKE A HORRIBLE BEAST! FILTHY GIRLS IS A BEAST WHO LIES! WORSE THAN A HOMUNCULUS!"

It didn't take long before she fell to the ground, several parts of her mechanical body dislocated from her body. Wires protruded out, sparks appeared at some of the dismembered areas. Her clothes were tattered and torn.
She suddenly wished he would stop. The chimera had receded, and the conscious part of Teto that had previously cowered had returned. She knew she must have had tears in her eyes, if she wasn't crying already. But she didn't care. Now that the chimera had gone back inside of her, she just wanted it to end.

"Lying... stupid... hrn... took away my big comeback... Not even worth finishing..."
He turned around, and began shuffling away, disappearing into the shadows from whence he came.

So this is ... what it's come down to? Teto-chan is alone ...
Her nerve receptors were badly damaged along with most of her body. But she knew she must have been crying.

The voice was suddenly there, along with a cloaked form that was looming over Teto. His eyes burned red, and he had a twisted pair of horns, along with a prominent set of wings.
Reply
She tried to look for the source of the voice. But she found none.
Either Teto-chan is going crazy before shutdown, or ...
"Teto-chan ... is not?" She answered weakly, the robotic sound of her voice coming through a little stronger than usual.
Reply
That wretched, fanged mouth curled into a smile.
"And in return, I have given them back hatred. Hatred for their very existence... a hatred that will see the world burn. Tell me Teto..."
He spread his wings, moving them around her, and causing the android to float upwards off the ground.
"... do you hate the world as well?"
Reply
Teto's lips pursed into a thin line, before she opened her mouth and began to speak again, just as weakly as before.
"N-Not ... not the world. But those ... t-those Vocaloids. Teto-chan hates them. Teto-chan hates them so much."
Even the one she couldn't stop thinking about. It was probably safe to say she hated him for that fact alone.

He brought out a hand, and touched it to Teto's forehead... a Demon Seal of Wrath appeared there.
Then... Teto's body began to fix itself. Or rather, Daemon began to fix it, calling the parts back and mending what was broken.
Reply
Her body was mending itself ...? What was this power she felt? What was he doing to her?
... whatever it was, it was fixing her in more than half the time it normally would have taken. And she enjoyed that thought.
Teto brought a hand in front of her face and moved her fingers as it was mended, eyes widening at how quickly it had been repaired, and how well it moved despite being dislocated from her body only moments ago.
"... Who are you?" She finally asked, looking up toward her savior with those same widened eyes.
