"Oh, shit! Connor?! Connor are you okay?!" Hank exclaimed as he kneeled down next to the android.

Connor nodded, "Y-Yes. I'm okay." he said, his voicy shaky as he saw warnings pop up.

"You don't look okay!" Niner exclaimed as he quickly cuffed Fawkes.

"Let go of me you plastic prick!" Fawkes exclaimed, "Or I'll make you permanently fuckin' blind!" he said as he tried to escape Niner's hold.

"I suggest you stay quiet." Niner stated.

"How the fuck did he smuggle a knife in?!" Hank questioned as his hand came to the handle of the knife which was currently in Connor's chest.

"That doesn't matter right now." Connor said, "Just be careful getting it out. It is exactly four point two centimetres away from my heart and the damage could be catastrophic."

Fawkes groaned, "Let the fucker bleed out. I've killed it before and I would love to kill it again."

"Shut. Up." Niner said.

"Okay, okay. I got you son." Hank assured as he tried to ignore Fawkes. He carefully but quickly retracted the knife from Connor, Thirium immediately poured out. Connor clenched his eyes and fists, trying to focus on anything but the slow growing pain.

"It's okay." Connor said, "I-I don't feel pain."

"Yes you do." Niner replied, "So don't lie."

Hank helped Connor to stand, his arm came around the android's shoulder to give him support. Connor's hand came up to his chest, Thirium quickly covered his fingers.

Fawkes scoffed, "A bunch of fuckin' wires can't feel shit!"

"Yes we can." Niner said as he tightened the cuffs on the man's wrists.

"What the fuck is going on in here?!" Fowler exclaimed as he entered the interrogation room.

Hank replied, "Put that fucker behind bars." he glared towards Fawkes be turning his head to look back at Fowler, "This asshole stabbed Connor and you're just gonna let that shit slide again, aren't ya?!"

"You can't let the public affect your views, Captain." Niner said. He then motioned towards his damaged eye, "He's going to keep doing things like this if you don't put him away."

"Please, Captain..." Connor said, "Please get a word out for us."

"The petty machines don't know what the fuck they're talkin' about!" Fawkes exclaimed, "They're fucking worthless-"

"Enough." Fowler stated before looking between Connor and Niner. He groaned, "Get this fucking asshole into a cell and I will see what I can do."

"You can't be serious?!" Fawkes questioned.

"I'm dead serious." Fowler glared, "This time I'm making sure that your ass is behind bars."

Fawkes chuckled, "We'll see how long that lasts!" Niner immediately pushed Fawkes out of the room, "Get off me, tin can!"

Hank sighed before tightening his arm around Connor's shoulders, "You good?"

"Yes. Thank you, Hank. My self-repair feature should kick in soon enough. It is only a minor wound." he said as his pain levels were rising significantly.

"You want me to call Gavin?" he asked.

"N-No! Don't call Gavin. Why would do that anyways?"

"I may hate his guts but he deserves to know about what happened." he was coming to accept the fact that Connor and Gavin were in a relationship.
