I leaned on the wall by the door watching my dad interrogate the Deviant. 

"What happened before you toke that knife?....... How long were ya in the attic?" The androids head was still down. "Why didn't you even try to run away?" Dad snapped his fingers but it still didn't get his attention. "Say something, goddamnit!" Dad shook his head standing up. "Fuck it, I'm outta here..." Dad left the room. I signed. I looked at the Android. I felt bad for him. I believe him. I wanted to try. I know if you stress the android to much it will self destruct. Found out the hard way. I was about to interrogate him till Conner came in. He walked around looking at the window then having a seat. Conner observed him then started asking him questions.

"You're damaged." No shit sherlock. "Did your owner did that?" I looked closer to the parts. Even from here I could see the damages. His right arm looked like burn marks. I really felt bad. "Did your owner do that? Did he beat you?" Conner toke a second before grabbing the photos showing it to the Android. "You recognize him? It's Carlos Ortiz. Stabbed, 28 times." He picked up the phot moving it to the side showing the other photo. "That was written on the wall in his blood... I'm not going to hurt you. I just need to ask you some questions, so we can understand what happened..... I'm here to help you. But you've got to trust me. All I want is to get you out of here. Listen, Im on your side." After the shit you pulled on the roof you should have been when we found him and left him. I gritted my teeth. "I want to help you. But there's nothing I can do if you won't talk to me." The android looked up looking at Conner, me, then to the window. 

"What.... What are they gonna do to me?" He shot his head up to face Conner, "They're gonna destroy me, aren't they?" My heart drop.

"They're going to disassemble you to look for problems in your biocomponents," Conner said truthfully. "They have no choice if they want to understand what happened."

"Why did you tell them you found me?" I looked at Conner. I want to hear his answer. "Why couldn't you just have left me there?"

"I was programmed to hunt deviants like you. I just accomplished my mission." I saw the androids LED turn red and yellow.

"I don't want to die." Markus didn't want to either. I felt a tear come but I rubbed my eye to make it go away. 

"Then talk to me."

"I...I can't." He said looking down. Why tell them so you can get out of here.

"I understand how you felt." Wait what? I looked back at Conner. "You were overcome by anger and frustration. No one can blame you for what happened. I know you're scared and lost. You're disturbed by what happened. Talk to me, and you'll feel better. Confess and I'll protect you. I promise I won't let anyone hurt you." Conner signed shaking his head then grabbed the folder smacking it down the table, "28 stab wounds, you didn't want to leave him a chance, huh? Did you feel anger? Hate? He was bleeding, begging you for mercy, but you stabbed him, again and again and again!" Conner said poking his shoulder.

"Please. Please leave me alone." He was shaking.

"I know you killed him. Why don't you say it?"

"Please stop....." He beeged. Conner went to his other side smacking his hands down.

"Just say 'I killed him!' Is it that hard to say?!"

"Stop it, stop!.." Conner grabbed his shirt pulling him up.

"JUST SAY YOU KILLED HIM! JUST SAY IT!" I pulled Conner back.

"Back off him!" I said standing between him and Conner. "your fucking scaring him!" I turned to the robot placing a hand on his shoulder. "It's ok. I won't let him touch you again. Please tell us what happened and prove your innocent. I believe you did nothing wrong so prove me right. Please I don't want to see another innocent android die." I begged. He looked at me. Conner sat back down while the android looked down. 

"He tortured me everyday...." I went and stood behind Conner listening. It was self-defense like I thought. "I did whatever he told me, but there was always something wrong..." He looked up at Conner then to me keeping his gaze. "Then one day...." He looked back down. "He toke a bat and started hitting me.. For the first time. I felt Scared. Scared he might destroy me, scared I might die... So I... grabbed the knife and I stabbed him in the stomach... I felt better." He looked up. "so I stabbed him again...and again!... until he collapsed... There was blood everywhere."

"The sculpture in the bathroom, you made it, right? What does it represent?"

"It's an offering... An offering so I'll be saved..." he said

"The sculpture was an offering..."

"An offering to whom?" I asked cutting Conner off.

"to rA9... Only rA9 can save us.

"rA9... Who is rA9?" The android looked back down. "rA9...It was written on the bathroom wall. What does it mean?"

"The day shall come when we will no longer be slaves... No more threats, no more humiliation... We will...be...the masters" He said.

"Why did you write 'I AM ALIVE' on the wall?" Conner asked.

"He used to tell me i was nothing...That i was just a piece of plastic...I had to write it. To tell him he was wrong."

"Your right. You aren't a piece of plastic. You're a being." I whispered but it looks like the android heard me because he looked at me with a small smile. 

"Why did you hide in the attic instead of running away?" his smile was gone just like the wind as he looked back at Conner.

"I didn't know what to do... For the first time, there was no one there to tell me... I was scared...So i hid"

"When did you start feeling emotion?"

"Before, he used to beat me and I never said anything... But one day I realized it wasn't fair! i felt...anger. Hatred. And then i knew what i had to do." I went to him squizing him shoulder to reasure him then let go heading toward the door.

"I'm done." Conner said getting up walking to the door opening it. Then I heard banging. I turned around seeing the android hitting his head on the table constantly. The officer, Gavin and dad came in.

"Stop it goddamnit!" Gavin yelled pushing the officer to the android. The officer tried pulling him back. 

"I... I- I can't!... I can't stop it!"

"That's enough! You need to stop that right now!" Conner said firmly. The officer toke his key out unlocking the handcuffs that was attaching the droid to the table. When he did the andorid stood up taking the gun aiming it to my direction.

"WATCH OUT!" Dad yelled. The Android shot Conner stright to the forhead then shot himself.

"Holy shit..." Dad said. He looked at me. I was leaning on the wall shaking. My heart pounding from fear. I should have more control of this but now. I tighten my fist. My dad came giving me a tight hug. He was scared. Scared that, that if I was the one he shot. I couldn't hug back. I'm loseing myself again.
