Zane's POV

10th of June, 2035.

After the test everyone locked themselves inside their rooms. To make sure the kidnapper wasn't lying about letting the android run around the house, I looked for it.

I saw it standing next to the living room door maybe waiting to hear something coming from the other side.

"So the robot is really here?" I glanced back as I felt the two pair of feet were coming my way. "I'm surprised that you even came here." I continued.

Anthony peeked through the corner to see what the android was doing. "No matter how scared I am, we have to do something." Nevaeh answered.

"That thing is walking to the other side." The male announced.

"What about the others?" I questioned them.

"Emma is trying to get to them." Nevaeh said walking to the other side to see the metal thing. "What can we really do?" She roamed her mind a bit upset.

"We'll figure something out. Until then we have to stay alive. We should get some food from the kitchen for everyone. It doesn't seem that It is on the hurry to find us for now." Anthony suggested taking the opportunity to sneak to the kitchen while the android was facing the other way.

I was looking at the artificial life but the girl interrupted me. "How's Nathan? He was really pale after he fainted." She asked.

"He needs to recover." I told her walking away, ending the exchange as I had no intention of talking about it anymore.

11 of June, 2035

I was walking the second floor corridor when I heard a voice calling my name.

"Zane!" I didn't really recognize who it was so I turned around to see. It was Nathan. He ran up to me smiling which was uncharacteristic of him.

"You are up." I whispered mostly to myself. "How are you feeling?" I further asked as there was posibility of him being out of character as I had no idea what happened to him, then the kidnapper took him away.

"Fine. What are you doing here alone? Where are the others?" He asked me making me furrow my brows giving of some red flags about him. But no matter what he looked like him, just with a freaky smile. I would say maybe he was brain washed but during the test he didn't sound so different. As Nathan was cold as ever.

"There's an android running around this house, everyone's hinding." I explained.

"Android?!" His face looked surprised but eyes were dead as a doll. What is he trying to do? "Is he trying to kill us? Why is he here?" He? Why would Nathan talk about the android as if it was alive?

It's a programed machine unless human emotions were coded in their system but none of the scientists have ever succeeded in accomplishing this.

"How our kidnapper said that thing is our encouragement to kill. If we don't kill, it will." I respond.

"No, Heather wouldn't hurt us." Nathan told making me question who he really was.

"Heather? From then are you calling him that?" I asked folding my arms. I have to get all the answers out of him. As of how he looks like Nathan. Because I'm sure that this person standing before me wasn't my friend but just a pretend. Maybe he's an android as well. That would explained why he call the thing as a person.

"We found out his name so why call him kidnapper?" That's the dumbest excuse I ever heard. I can't believe this thing is trying to act like Nathan.

"Yeah, whatever. Want to play billiard?" I asked. "I know your the best at it. You must have missed playing it." I said trying to see what that artificial knew about Nathan.
