Murder
I am slick, I am swift
I'm a baddie I'm a thief
For the fun, for the joy
It is such a brilliant ploy
I sneak in, I sneak out
I try not to be too loud
For the chills, for the thrill
I have never planned to kill
Spotted. Panic. The alarms all went off at the sight of the burglar.
He ran and ran but he could not run from his predicament.
Oh how I wish I could have warned him earlier.
Oh how I wish I could have learned
My fate
Earlier
The silvery steel sheen of the knife
Stabbed a great mortal wound
The burglar knew that was the end of his life
As the man collapses on the ground

Something grabbed my neck. It was strong, the strength of a million, crushing my neck and pulling me up. "Stop! Who are you?" I opened my eyes. It was Donovan. I can't breathe. I need help. I can't breathe. I need help. I closed my eyes, accepting my fate. Just as I feel my brain is shutting down, the force dissapeared and I dropped back on to my bed.
"Freeze! Why did you kill him?" What? Donovan killed... somebody? I wanted to shout 'that's not possible', but I remember what he just did to me. But how? I thought he couldn't hurt humans?
I was just trying to get a better body! My current one is nothing but outdated equipment! Why can't I get the better one? It wasn't my fault! The guard tried to shoot me and Amanda!
M... Me? I tried to recall what happened last night, but all I could remember was me kissing him, followed by a. By a hit in the head...
The police officers arrested Donovan. "No! Don't take him away!"
"I'm sorry Amanda, he committed a criminal offence. Arrest her! She made him."
I ran and ran, but the room is only so big. I could not run from my predicament. Donovan killed somebody. I made Donovan. I killed somebody.
I'm so sorry Amanda. I wanted to please you. I wanted to be better, for you.
I couldn't keep it in. I don't know if I was talking to a robot or a human. "I don't care who you are! It's the inside that counts! I love you!"
The whole room was silent except for the constant slight beeping of Donovan. He opens his mouth to say something, but his metallic tongue could not bend itself to project his words. He is crying now, the tears not visible but the pain is tangible. He finally manages to make a sound.
"I love you too."
I broke.
