Y/N's pov:

<I had no idea where I was for a few seconds after I 'woke up' before remembering what happened the night before.

<I stood up and swiped the dust off me and walked to the window.... it was still heavily raining.

<choice; remain inside

<I did decide to leave the room though, exploring this empty place.

<deeper in the building I found a workshop, they made boats here.... and androids....

<I walked through the boat carcasses that littered the place, eating to bones by rust.... mostly the same with the android pieces.

<self-scan
<lost
<stressed
<empty
<lonely
<missing
<alive

"I am alive" <my voice echoed through the place.... I felt.... full.... like what was missing from me was no more, filled by that one word.... alive.

<I stopped at a workbench filled with tools and a mirror.

<I wiped of the dust from the mirror and looked at my reflection.

<my eyes where stuck to the LED.... it reminded me that I was just an android.... what.... what if....

<scan workbench
<hammer
<hand held laser cutter
<pliers
<scissors
<screw driver
<nails
<toolbox
<crowbar

<I picked up the screw driver that had a single lined edge not a star shaped one, turning my head to the side but in a way I could still see.

<I picked up the hammer as I put the screw driver just next to the LED.

<to risky; critical damage possible

<I tried to ignored the coding's warning as I hit the hammer on the back of the screw driver while I shut my eyes tight.

<damage to covering
<danger
<danger
<danger

<damn it hurts but I brought my hand that held the hammer back for another strike.

<my hands were shaking from the pain; I hate this feeling.... I hate it so much.

<I still brought my hammered hand down and this time I heard the loud crunching of the covering.

<danger
<danger
<danger

<danger

<I dropped the two tools which made a loud clinging nose when they hit the ground and leaned against the table, shaking as I pressed my hand over the LED as I watch my purple bio flue drip through my fingers.

<I need to finish this.

<I picked up the pliers and turned my head back way it was before.

<now the edges of the LED where visible, sticking out a bit.

<I grabbed on it with the pliers, ignoring my systems danger warnings as I pulled on it.

<I stopped instantly it was such a horrible pain, worst then I've ever felt before.

<I looked in my own eyes and gritted my teeth.... I'm not the toy of humans anymore.... I'm not!

<I closed my eyes tight and gripped on the table before yanking on the pliers with all my strength.

"FUCK!!!" <I screamed in pain as I fell to my knees, pressing both arms over the hole now present there, I felt a few small cables stick out too.

<I looked down at the pliers I dropped to see the turned off LED there with cables attached to it, it blinked red a few times before turning off forever.

<protection program launching
<automatic shutdown
<time;00:05:00:00

"fuck only 5 minutes"<I breathed out. "this is not good, not good at all!"

<I pulled myself up to my feet.... I need to repair the damage to my bio components fast.

<time; 00:04:35:12

<I grabbed the hand held laser cutter, it was like an older model of what Hanna had so it must work the same right?

<I turned it on and was right.

<I knew what I needed to do but....

<self-scan
<pain
<fear
<shaky
<stressed
<not calm
<time;00:03:58:47

"fuck.... fuck...." <I hit the table, actually tears rolling down my face.... why are we androids capable of this?! of crying?! of feeling pain?! no..... those are just in my superior systems.... having been made that way for Hanna only.

<Hanna...... I can't shut down.... I promised I would come back.

<time; 00:02:27:24

<I carefully brought the end of the laser against my head and shakily did a square around the part where the LED once was trying to ignore the burning pain.

<time; 00:01:12:28

"come on come on come on!"<the square finally fell out and I opened the toolbox, pulling out tape, metal wires and some shit more, trying to connect the circuits, again while ignoring the pain that came with.

<time; 00:00:38:20

<was panicking now and I didn't like this feeling, even worst then pain since it makes it makes concentrating harder.

<time;00:00:02:19
<systems stable
<auto repair launch
<automatic shutdown interruption

<I shakily fell back on my butt and laid down, covering my eyes with my right arm.

<I laid there for a while.... all these emotions have taken a toll on me, mostly stress and panic were the worst ones.

<I sat up after a while and reached for the tape without standing up, pulling a few strips of it and sticking it over the square hole on my head.... it will do for now, I most likely be able to fine a compatible android piece around here or if not I can try to sneak back and ask Hanna for help even if it's dangerous for me to do so.

<I backed up so my back was against the side of the workbench, I needed a bit of time to be able to recuperate from what I did right now....

<I looked at the LED that was still on the ground and held by the pliers and a smile appeared on my face.... I was free.... truly free....

<I leaned my head back against the workbench and looked at the ceiling, unable to stop smiling.... I am free.... I am alive....
