Just An Android || Detroit: Become Human • Connor •

- 3 4 -

Since the android on the far right hacked the TV station with Markus, he should know where the androids are hiding. I walked over to the android that took a girl hostage and grabbed the #3983v biocomponent, then I walked back to the TV station android and placed it where it needed to be. He looked up, eyes black and blue.

"It's dark... Where- where am I?.." His eyes looking everywhere, but still couldn't see. 

"I need to find Jericho. Tell me how to get there." I said directly. 

"I don't... recognize your voice... You're not one of us! I'll never tell you where Jericho is! Now leave me alone!.." He demanded.

The only way to get him to tell me the location, is to try and trick him. I walked to the shelf, and grabbed the tablet. It showed Markus giving his speech for android rights. I sampled his voice in order to try and trick the TV station android. I went back to the TV station android and he sense I was there.

"Who's there?.. Who are you?" His LED was red.

"Everything is all right. Don't worry." I used Markus' voice.

"Markus? Is that you?.. I tried to reach you, but the deviant hunter stopped me..." His eyes were wavering around.

"You stopped him from finding me, you saved me! You saved Jericho. You'll be alright now. I came to take you home. Give me the location to Jericho. We gotta leave now." I asked him.

"The location of Jericho?.. Yes... yes, of course..." He said as I grabbed his arm and he lended me the key to finding the location I needed.

Once I got it, he grabbed my shoulder.

"Markus?.. Is that... You, Markus?.." I reached for the biocomponent in his chest. "Don't leave me, Markus!" And I pulled it out.

His head leaned back down, signalling he was deactivated. I then started walking back upstairs, leaving the evidence out, as I had already found the key to finding Jericho.

"You found the location of Jericho?" Aaron stopped what she was doing and looked at me. 

We were in me and Aaron's office. She was currently putting some medication on Hank's face because of the fight him and Perkins had. She continued to dab ointment on his cheek.

"I'm going over there to stop Markus, their leader. But I'm going to have to change in another outfit." 

"You're going over ther- OW!" Hank yelled before finishing  his sentence.

"Sorry! Sorry!" Aaron apologized. "Well, I'm finally finished." She took the first aid kit and placed it back on her shelf. "Can't believe you actually fought the guy." Aaron smirked.

"Well, gotta do whatcha gotta do." Hank said while touching the little wound on his face.

"But I don't think a fight was necessary." She crossed her arms.

"Doesn't matter anymore. Connor has the location of Jericho." They both turned to me.

"I'm gonna have to go back and get changed." I said to Aaron. 

"Alright. Let's head back." She scanned her hand for the door to open. "You gonna be okay alone, Hank?" She questioned as we made our way down the hall.

"Of course. I'll probably be at my 'thinking place'." Hank chuckled. 

"Alright I'll meet you there later." Aaron said before we parted ways.

-Aaron's POV-

Hank went to the desks and we headed straight out. I stopped when I first stepped foot outside, looking up to admire the snow. Does Connor really have to do this...? Does he want to do this...? Different questions popped up as I stared blankly at the snow falling from the sky. 

"Aaron?" I looked to the side to see Connor calling out to me. "Are you okay?" He asked, looking concerned.

I sighed before answering.

"Honestly, I don't know... I'm just confused." I admitted.

"At least you're honest." His lips curled upwards.

"I guess..." I shrugged.

We both walked to my motorcycle.

"Tell me what's on your mind." He looked at me.

"Well," I hesitated for a moment. "Do you have to stop Markus? Stop the deviants? They just wanted to be free... Is it so bad to not give them that...?" I looked down. 

I closed my eyes, letter the silence take over. I felt a hand on my cheek, so I opened my eyes to see Connor giving me what looked like a sad smile. 

"If I don't, CyberLife will deactivate me to see why I failed... Maybe even replace me..." He said looking into my eyes. "We have to go..." 

He pulled his hand back and sat at the back of the motorcycle, waiting for me. I sighed and nodded, seating myself in front of him. I put on my helmet and started the motorcycle. I flipped the helmet visor up. 

"Ready?" I looked back at him as I said through the helmet. 

He nodded before I looked back in front flipping the visor back down. I kicked the stand back and back up before driving off.

We arrived home, and he got changed. He was wearing jeans and a hoodie, with a jacket and some classic timberlands. 

"Wow~." I chuckled. "Turn." 

He slowly turned for me to look from the back, then stopped when he was back to facing me. I leaned on one leg, fingers stroking my chin, as I feel something is missing in his outfit. As it hit me, I quickly grabbed one of my beanies, and placed it on his head, pulling it down enough to cover his LED just to not attract suspicion when bringing him to Jericho. I smiled at him and he smiled back.

"I need you to give me the location to Jericho." I said looking up at his eyes. 

He nodded before the new contacts in my eyes showed a map. There were different images of the area. It made me close eyes with the sudden pop up, but even with my eyes shut, It was still in front of me. 

"Are you alright?" Connor grabbed my shoulder to keep me from losing balance while getting use the contacts once again.

"I'm fi-- uh, I'll be fine." I reassured. "Anyways, let's get going."
