Empathy | Connor X Reader (Discontinued Until Further Notice)

Chapter 3

(This chapter is not part of the story, like I said I will make my own chapters and other things, here's one of those thing)

Connor and (Y/N) were back at the police station, not being allowed to roam the streets of Detroit they had to stay there.

They had been put under surveillance by the officers on duty. Connor sitting sat down at his desk playing with his coin. (Y/N) decided to sit at Lieutenant Hank Anderson's desk since no one said that she couldn't. (Y/N) snooped around Hank's desk.

"Hank, has a dog?" (Y/N) asked looking at the chair. Seeing the dog hairs on the chair.

"Yes, apparently it's a Saint Bernard named Sumo" Connor said not even looking at (Y/N), just concentrated on his coin. It moved fluently with his fingers and hands.

"Interesting" (Y/N) said, knowing more information about Hank will help her connect more with Hank. Making Hank warm up to her was an optional mission but she wanted it done. It was in her code.

"Lieutenant wouldn't like you sitting in his chair" Connor brought up, thinking about Hank would react to (Y/N) sitting in his chair.

"I couldn't care any less" (Y/N) said slowly picking up what seems to be headphones and a music player.

"You should listen to that, I like that music" Connor said noticing (Y/N) picking up Hank's headphones and music player. (Y/N) looked at him skeptically.

"Trust me, it's 'full of energy'" Connor said almost like he was daydreaming. (Y/N) put the headphones on her head, plugged the headphones into the music player and pressed play. She listened closely analyzing the music.

"Knights Of The Black Death" (Y/N) said finish analyzing the music. She took it off slowly. "It's somewhat... loud" (Y/N) hesitated and put both the objects down.

"Yes, that's what makes it so full of energy" Connor said smiling slightly. Seeing (Y/N) not reacting to his smile and not smiling back, he stops smiling.

"Can I ask you a question, (Y/N)?" Connor asked looking her with curiosity. She looked at him and nodded.

"Why haven't you shown any emotion on your face since Hank powered you up?" Connor asked slightly tilting his head to the side like a puppy.

"My program has forbidden me to show emotion on my face since the first time I was activated I have shown 'unpredictable' behavior if my emotions are turned on" (Y/N) explained what had been written in her code by CyberLife.

"Would you like me to activate it?" Connor asked (Y/N) who was still in Hank's chair. Her head snapped towards Connor.

"You can do that?" (Y/N) asked. Connor put the coin down on the desk.

"I believe I can, I have been modified to activate biocomponents when androids are broken or shut down" Connor said explaining what he can do.

"How are you so sure" (Y/N) asked thinking how much it would affect the case if Connor broke her by accident.

"Androids are fairly accurate" Connor insisting that he'll be able to 'fix' (Y/N)'s little problem.

"But I'm not broken" (Y/N) stopped Connor in his tracks when he started to get up. Connor's LED flashed yellow for a few seconds but stopped and went back to blue.

"You are not fully functional" Connor said reaching (Y/N)'s side, "Let me help you" Connor said putting a hand on her shoulder as if to comfort her.

"What's the use? We'll... We'll be sent back to CyberLife after we've finished the case anyway so fixing me would be a useless task" (Y/N) tried to defend from being touched by Connor.

"The use is that it'll work better in your favour for the case" Connor encouraged, (Y/N) thought for a short while.

"I'll... I'll do it" (Y/N) said sure about what she's doing is right. Connor nodded.

"This might be... unpleasant" Connor said looking down at (Y/N) who's LED was yellow. (Y/N) closed her eyes as Connor removed her skin to activate the emotion censor.

After a few seconds of silence, something inside (Y/N) clicked. Her eyes widened, Connor backed away letting her skin regenerate. (Y/N) looked at Connor.

"Did it work?" Connor asked tilting his head at the wide eyed android. (Y/N) nodded and a small smile stretched across her face. Connor smiled back.

"See? I didn't break you" Connor said standing happily. That's until Detective Gavin Reed came along.

"What the fuck are you pieces of plastic doing?" Gavin asked as if disgusted at the sight of the two androids. Connor and (Y/N) turned to him.

"What's it too you" (Y/N) said anger written on her face for the first time. Connor seemed content with the emotion since he stood proudly beside (Y/N).

"I work here is what" Gavin said glaring back at (Y/N) who was on the verge of standing up but Connor held her down with his arm stretched in front of her.

"That's no excuse we work here too" (Y/N) seemed to gradually calm down and look at Gavin with a calm attitude. Gavin seemed to be beat.

"I'll get you back for this" Gavin spat and walked off, "When you least expect it!" He yelled before disappearing.

Path Unlocked

"Your emotions seemed to be working now" Connor stated, happily smiling. (Y/N) looked at him with one brow risen.

"I am warning you" (Y/N) said before getting up and looking Connor in the face. "I was known to have a history for unpredictable behavior with emotions" She said and left.

"A history you say?" Connor said and went to search the CyberLife files on his monitor on his new desk. He found a news article. 

HEAD RESEARCHER ATTACKED
Head Researcher Attacked By Android
Kyle Scott

On the night of November 1st 2038, leading Researcher Blake was attacked at a CyberLife warehouse. He was creating a new line of Androids but something went wrong with the first model. When it was activated it instantly attacked Researcher Blake's. Taking Blake's life along with his research, burned and turned to ash.

Others who saw this accident could manage to shut down the android. Valuable information was burned and the android could not be recreated. Erasing its memories and restarting it. They say it was a glitch in the emotion program and so they deactivated it for future incidents.

William Blake's family is devastated by the accident. There will be a funeral later in the month.

"So that's what happened to (Y/N)" Connor said taking a last look at the article. "You can't hide now" Connor said leaving his seat.
