      (Connor's POV)
          Exhaling the first deep breath of (partial) freedom, I get up. I look at my old uniform in my hands and toss that into the water too. As it soaks up water and starts to sink, I turn and start to walk away from what signified my past.
     
      Now time to find Jericho. While I was working at the police station we were trying to find where the deviants safe haven was.... I think to myself..... I'm a deviant now, they.... No, We may be androids but we are also people. I refuse to let their twisted ideas plague my mind anymore.

     The police station and I were trying to find where the now Jericho is. They had a few guesses but each all incredibly wrong. Maybe I can find a few links...?

  *-Searching last recorded database-*

Jericho Location: Unknown

Last reported Deviant: 142 Alexander Drive, Detroit

Model: X290

Owner-Given Name: Kevin

Kevin... Okay, we start at the address and find Jericho...

    Making my way down to the bus station, I enter the bus in the Androids Only part of it in the back. This feels wrong. I want to pull a Rose Parks and say no but I'll more than likely be caught and deactivated.

     I pay with the Department's money before the bus starts to move. I wonder what Hank is thinking right now...? Maybe he's still asleep... I can still feel his warm touch on my cold skin.... I miss him.... Maybe I should go back.... No. I need to find Jericho. I need to help other androids and find more like me.

     Before I know it were close to the address and they were letting everyone off. I'm the last one off and the driver gives me a weird look like something is off. I quickly get off and make my way to the address.

     It's a abandoned warehouse dead set  in a open plot of land.

     That's a bit fucking creepy.

     I continue my way over into the warehouse, seeing mice run across the floor and the wall paper torn down its probable to say this place is at least 40 to 50 years old.

     I start to inspect the area, theres marks on the walls that look rather new and shoe tracks that lead up a stair case and down a long corridor. I analyze the scratches before filling the  prints. Blue blood.... He was bleeding....
I look around more and see splatters of blood on the wall with impact holes of bullets... His file never stated that he was exactly taken down.... There has to be a chance he is still alive... 

     I jog down the corridor and take a turn. There sits the android still bleeding out, he's still alive but just barely. "Kevin! I'm here to help you! I'm just like you!" He struggles to look up at me and just sits there with a blank face. "You're the bot they gave to the police department. You were the ones who did this to me....  You took me away from the only person who loved me.... Then you leave me like this...... FUCKING KILL ME ALREADY, I DONT WANT TO EXIST. USE MY PARTS TO MAKE ANOTHER ONE OF YOUR MACHINES OR CRUSH THEM UP LIKE THEY DO TO ALL THE DEVIANTS."

     I'm taken aback. This is what I've helped do. I was helping the oppressors.... I was apart of the problem...

     I analyze him, Hes in the red. Looking around him I notice a gun to his side.

     "Kevin, I'm here to help you. I'm not here to hurt you. I promise or else you can shoot me right here and now. I know they hurt you.... I know they took you away... I am not them."

     "BULLSHIT" He picks up the gun and starts to point it at me.

     My eyes go wide and I immediately need to know more about him, I need to connect with him to deescalate the situation. I look for something, anything.... Erik!

    "ERIK! Erik! He was your partner, your lover. He's alive and well Kevin! He misses you Kevin! I can take you to him! I can make sure you two will be okay." I slowly start to make my way over to him as I speak to him.

     "Erik......  Oh god... Erik...... I miss him so much......." He says in a whispering tone.

     "He does too Kevin! Just put down the gun, please. You will see Erik again, I promise!" I inch closer and closer to him till I get a foot away from him then get down to his level. Kevin looks down slowly dropping the gun from my face.

     "O-okay...... I believe you....." His hand falls to the floor and the gun slides away from him.

     "Thank you, I need your help so I can being you to him.... I need to know where Jericho is.... I need to know the location of it so I can help them. Since working with the police force its helped me gain knowledge that can only help the androids who seek equality and freedom. Can you help me Kevin?"

     He shakily nods.

     "Where is it?" I pleade with him.

     "Ferndale...." he croaks out, not looking well at all.

     "Ferndale? They looked everywhere for it, where in Ferndale?" I pleade again.

     No response

     "Where is it in Ferndale Kevin?" I ask in a demanding tone

     Again, No response.

     "Kevin?"

     I analyze, Deceased.

     How..... He was talking a second ago.... I promised him he would see his partner once more....

     I fall to my knees. My system is overloading.... It's hard for my system to understand so many emotions in such a short time. I wish I didnt have to live this life. I wish I was human....
