I parked in the drive way feeling relief. Worst party ever gone to. I got out going to the passenger side, picking up Carl as Markus toke out the wheel chair from the back, so I could place Carl in. I got a call during the party saying I can start work tomorrow. Can't wait to see my dad's expression tomorrow. Markus pushed Carl to the front door as I followed behind. Carl let me stay the night, so I can finish unpacking tomorrow.

"Good evening, Carl. Welcome back." The house said.

"That was by far the most boring party i've been to in the last 25 years. Every time I go to one of these, I ask myself: What the hell am i doing here?" I giggled placing my jacket on the rack while Markus puts the umbrella up. "I hate cocktail parties. and all the schmoozers that go there."

"Well, it's a chance for all those people who admire your work to meet you." Markus say's.

"I agree. It's not everyday you meet someone you admire." I said smiling.

"No one gives a damn about art." Carls says giving Markus his jacket to put up. "All they care about is how much money they're gonna make out of it."

"Well then I wish I can buy them so I can give it to people who actually gives a damn about art right Markus," I said walking ahead to open the doors.

"Right." Markus said pushing Carl. I saw a smile form on Carl's face.

"Come on, let's have a drink?" All the excitement of this whole thing has made me thirsty. Of course.

"Scoych, neat, as usual?" Markus ask's.

"Absolutely"

"Okay! But you know what your doctor would say..." Wait for it.

"Yeah... Well, he can kiss my ass! I'm old enough to choose my own medication." There it is. I giggled turning my head seeing light from the studio. Wait.

"Hey Markus, did you leave the light in the studio on?" I asked

"No... No, i'm sure I didn't." I went to grab my gun from the side but I forgot. Carl gave me these clothes to make me look nicer. I left my gun in the studio when Carl said leave it behind to be nice when I showed him my clothes since he was still painting. Shit the intruder may be armed.

"Call the police." Carl said. I started walking to the studio.

"This is Carl Manfred's android, at 8941 Lafayette Avenue. We've just returned home and found the lights on. There may have been a break-in."

"Let's go check it out." As I came close to the door it opened. I walked closer to the figure till i realized it was-

"Leo! What are you doing?"

"You refuse to help me, so I'm helping myself. It's crazy what some people will pay for this shit." he said gathering more.

"Don't touch them."

"Look, they're all going to be mine sooner or later anyway." he said.

"Yea, until then there still your dad's." I said gritting my teeth. He has some nerve doing this. 

"Just think of it as a down payment on my inheritance," he said facing us.

"Markus, get him away from there. Get him outta here!" Markus approched him.

"Leo, don't make this difficult, listen to your father. You need to leave. Now."

"All you ever do is tell me to go away. What's wrong Dad? I'm not good enough for you? Not perfect like this FUCKING THING?!" I saw Carl about to move, but I stopped him and went myself.

"That's it Leo, get out!" I said going between Leo and Markus.

"That's enough! Get out, right now! Go on, move!" Carl said.

"What makes it so special anyway, huh? What's it got that I don't?" I felt like something bad was going to happen.

"Leave him alone!" I looked at Carl seeing the saddness. I was so focused on Carl I didn't feel the punch that Leo sent me. I wasn't paying attention to Leo to see. I hit the ground, eye shut.  having my vision blurry.

"Come on, let's see what you got!" Leo said.

"Markus. Don't defend yourself, you hear me?!"

"Go ahead, hit me! What you waiting for?"

"Don't touch him Leo!" I said sitting up. My vision was to blurry to see. Shit. I looked up seeing flashing yellow. All i know that's Markus.

"Think you're a man? Act like one!"

"Stop it!" I Heard Carl's cough's. O no. I crawled trying to find Carl.

"What's the matter? Too much of a pussy?"

"STOP IT, LEO!" I was closer now.

"Too Scraed to fight back, you fucking bitch?" I heard a slap. I am going to take him down. I was mad but I know Carl needs me. "Oh right, that's right! I forgot, you're not a real person... You're just a FUCKING PIECE OF PLASTIC! Listen to me"

"No, Leo! Leave him alone!" I found his wheel chair.

"I'm gonna destroy you, then it'll just be me and my dad. I'm  gonna tear you apart and nobody's gonna give a shit. You know why? Cause you're nothing, your hear me?! YOU'RE NOTHING!" I watched Carl fall. my vision started to clear a bit so I slide to Carl's side.

"Carl, no!" Markus went to his side while I was on the other. "No, Carl, No!"

"Humans....are fragile machines"

"Carl don't you dare!" I said as I placed my hands on his stomach. Tears builded up but I held them in

"Carl, don't leave, okay? Please, don't go...Don't leave!" Markus pleaded

"Remeber, Markus. Don't let anybody. Tell you who you are." Carl closed his eyes.

"No.." The tears started pouring down.

"No....Dad. No, please!" Markus said bolding his fist

"This is all your fault." Leo said. I snapped standing up. "This never would have happened if it weren't for you."

"Shut up Leo this your fault! Don't play this! Markus did nothing and you came trying to steal your fathers paintings for your selfish needs!" I yelled. The doors bursted open. The cops came and they looked at markus then us.

"The android. It was the android." They aimed at Markus as he stood up.

"N-" The cops fired. I watched Markus fall. "NO!" I went to him but got pulled away. "Don't touch me!" I was heart broken. First Cole... Now Carl and Markus! I looked at Markus's body. Maybe they can repair him and I can get him back. I have to.
