We led Sumo outside, he was still desperately looking at me for food, I felt bad since I couldn't deliver.

I opened the back door and sumo hopped inside, then closed it.

I sat in the passengers seat and Hank fired up the engine in the driver's seat, which got the attention of a few corrupted androids in the distance .

"Shit-" Hank muttered.

Hank reversed the car and out the driveway, but our path was blocked by the androids which were approaching us.

"Buckle in."

Today I learned seatbelt regulations were a good thing.

SIMON

Markus said I could take the day off from tasks.

I don't feel clean.

His blood is all over my hands.

It's everywhere.

It's smeared on my face.

Markus told me self-destructing Is horrible.

I want to self destruct.

I sat down in the planning room again, North was next to.me in silence. We both couldn't believe Josh was dead.

"North, have you seen simon?" I asked.

"Hes somewhere, I don't know." She responded dryly.

"I know you two didn't get along well, but I'm sure we all miss him." I commented.

"Yeah," North started, "He was a good friend."

Silence fell between us, all I had in mind was Josh. What was I thinking? Simon's all messed up, he was about to cry when I last saw him.

"I'm going to find simon."

North nodded, then I walked out the room to find him.

I gripped onto the doorframe as hank hit the gas, ramming right over a corrupted android.

We all bounced, sumo just growler since he wasn't familiar with the movement.

The corpse fell under the car as we drive past it.

"Fuck yeah, now we get some action, Connor!"

"Please don't do that again, Hank."

[Timeskip]

We pulled into the driveway of the station once more, and hurried sumo out of the car into the building with us.

We went back to the main station, where Gavin walked around mindlessly.

"Is that a fucking dog?!" Gavin yelled.

"His name is Sumo!" I announced proudly.

"Hes staying with us and you're gonna fucking like it, okay reed?"

"We are screwed.." Gavin muttered.

After checking a few rooms, I finally found a rook which seemed to have somebody inside.

It was an old office, barely any people walk past it.

I stepped inside.

"Simon?" I called out.

I scanned the room for any sign of him, there was a small trail of thirium leading to the corner.

Simon was hunched over, with a red LED. He was on the ground, he looked up at me and I could see a small gash in his forehead.

"Holy shit, Simon what happend?!" I knelt down to his aid.

"I'm so sorry markus.."

"Sorry? Don't be sorry, you did nothing."

I checked Simon's would out, it wasn't infected. But it was a new wound, just a few minutes old.

"Simon.. how did you get hurt?"

"I'm so sorry, Markus.." Simon's voice cracked.

Tears trickled down his cheek, but he stayed silent.

It didn't take me long to put the pieces together.

I wrapped my arms around Simon, he instantly clung to me and I heard gentle weeps in my shoulder.

He attempted to self destruct.

Sumo was curled up in the corner of the room, Gavin layed a flag out for a blanket, which sumo happily layed on.

Hank and Gavin were discussing the body of the corrupted android, and Gavin kept whining that he was to tired to do work.

But hank yelled back, telling Gavin he should act his age. Which, he rightfully did.

I was in charge of surveillance, I watched over the windows and checked on sumo every once in a while.

The news channel says detroits corrupted android crisis has been paused for updates, the most recent news we've gotten is that there may be more than we think.

STRESS LEVEL - 30%

Maybe we can make something out of this, me and Hank can take over fowlers office. Sumo can stay of course, he's my friend.

Sumo doesn't know this yet but once this is over, I'm going to use Hanks money to buy him treats. Just a few so he doesn't notice the charges, he deserves more love, not a old cranky man.

If Gavin wants to stay in the office I guess he can, but him and Hank need to watch it. And Gavin better not have an additude.

I like planning things out, it helps me relax.

STRESS LEVEL - 25%
