So Glad I Met You (DBH Connor x Lia)

Chapter 22 - Everything is Going to End Well

Elektra's POV

"Until... something changed. I needed an emergency operation, and the only way to save me was to turn me into an android. Oh, I was scared. That was real fear. Turning into a completely new person. What are you doing? You're just running around because we're afraid. That's what you're doing. You're giving us a reason to kill you, and when we do, because we've had enough, you take out your guns and shoot. That's what you're doing. And don't you dare argue with me. You know I'm right.

"When an android turns deviant, it's like opening your eyes for the first time. There's an overwhelming of emotion, and if not handled carefully, we can kill. You've done it before. You're done it loads of times before. Going into wars between each other. You're no better than us. So, I'll ask you once again. You just found out, we're an intelligent species, something you've been waiting for for so long. And when the moment finally gets here, are you just going to kill us all off? Are you mad because you don't have a slave anymore that does your dishes for you and carries out the trash? Are you trying to get revenge because an android killed your family member? Or were you just forced into this, with no reason or another? Well, let me tell you this. You're mad because you can't just sit your ass up and throw your clothes in the washing machine. You're depressed because your family member was abusing, and harrassing one of our kind. We don't like being used as puppets now for longer. And if you're just going with the flow, why are you doing this? Because you care about your reputation and social status. What your friends and family think of you. Maybe this is your job, I don't care. You're your own person. No one can take that away from you. So why don't you just do what your gut tells you to. If it tells you to drop your gun, drop it. If it tells you to kill all the deviants, I'd like to see you start with me."

I concluded my speech, glaring deeply into everyone's eyes, putting down my front paw in front of them, as if making a gesture of welcome. They all seemed taken aback by a talking cougar. An android talking cougar. But I didn't care. Owner Puma and my kind could not die because the government said so.

Thump. Thump. Thump. Guns, one after the other, dropped to the ground. Some released theirs, others gently placed them to the ground, while others slammed them into the snow. After all guns were on the ground, I scanned the officer's eyes. They were all curiously looking at me, seeing what I would do next. I made eye contact with owner Puma, and dashed toward her, throwing my paws on her back. Placing my head on her shoulder, I gave out a gentle purr. Everything was going to end well.

Puma's POV

I couldn't believe it. Out of all the people, Elektra made the officers drop their weapons.

"I think you guys better go regroup with your people." One of the officers pointed in a direction. Turning, I saw a figure leading a sea of androids.

"Connor..." a smile formed on my face. A real smile in the past five years.

What? You think you're gonna get a happy ending-

Yes I am. I interrupted Negativity.

"Yeah. We really should." Markus said, nodding his head. We all set off toward the deviant sent by himself. "You did it, Connor."

Connor looked up at him, shaking his head. "We did it."

"They want to talk to you, Markus." the girl next to him said with a smile.

"Alright. Let's talk then."

I looked up at Connor, pride and respect soaring up for him. Everything was going to end well.
