I wasn't exactly sure where we are, an abandoned building of some sort, however, I do know why I am here. Detroit was having mass extermination of androids and I couldn't be seen in the streets or I'll be shot on the spot. Either way I didn't mind, I wanted to be here with my kind to give them the best chance possible, but for now, we are waiting.

"You are one of us now, your place is with your people." I overheard Markus forgive Connor for his actions, I hope he forgives me for not telling me he was there. Right as Markus was going to walk away Connor spoke up, stopping him in his tracks.

"There are thousands of androids at the Cyberlife assembly plant, if I wake them, they can join us and we can shift the balance of power," Connor suggested his plan to Markus and he was absolutely crazy.

"You want to infiltrate the CyberLife Tower? Connor that's suicide."

"They trust me. They'll let me in. If anyone has the chance of infiltrating the CyberLife tower it's me."

"If you go there they'll kill you."

"There is a high probability but statistically speaking there is always a chance for unlikely events to take place."

Markus placed his hand on Connor's shoulder and left him with two words. "Be careful."

CyberLife Tower was right in front of me, I was hiding from the guards as Connor was inside. The crazy boy actual set out on this dangerous mission and I was not going to do nothing about it.

"A Connor Model has broken into the warehouse at sub 49, all units needed in the area." I heard the radio on one of the soldiers in the area. They ran to the elevator but it was out of order, a smart move on Connors part. They all headed towards the stairs and I knew what I had to do, the longer I stall them the more chance Connor has to wake the androids. I let my claws out for the first time in many years and got prepared for the fight.

Using my android speed I jumped on one of the soldiers closest to the stairs and tackled him down, I bit down on the back of his neck and ripped his flesh from his body. Shots were fired and I jumped away from the soldier on the ground and ran for the other. I jumped left to the left again to the right then jumped on him, my claws dug into his armor for support as I held onto him and bit his neck.

I let him go as he fell onto his knees and held his neck, more soldiers appeared from the distance and saw me covered in the blood of their comrades. They shot from afar so I ran to them, the first bullet went into my ear, the second into my chest, barely missing my important chest piece. I reached them an jumped onto the first solider in my way. They shot me again but this time on my side, I had to stay moving or else they will easily kill me.

I went for an unpredictable pattern, I jumped on a man and used the momentum to tackle another. They shot at me and accidentally shot their friend instead, they stopped shooting in this fear but I didn't stop. Leaving me to the other soldiers some went for the stairs.

I growled and ran for them I bit the man's hand, making him drop his gun. I tackled another man but instead of falling he grabbed onto me and tried to hold me down. I was overcome by his strength and he pushed my head down. Fear paralyzed me as another man aimed his gun at my head.

"No Please, I don't want to die!" I cried out and whined, the man hesitated to shoot me and that was all I need. In his second of hesitation and confusion, I broke free from the man's grasp and ran down the stairs to the soldiers who continued down.

I jumped on one of the guy's back and hurled myself down the stairs to the one in the front. We collided and we both fell down a couple of steps. I got back up immediately but was shot in my snout, it made me back down and fall. They kicked my body softly to make sure I stayed down but I was still alive.

"I am alive," I growled as I got back up and stood my ground.

They were silent as I took my stance, they pointed their guns to the ground and backed up. I looked behind me to find Connor and other androids in white uniforms.

"Hey assholes," Hank's voice surprised me, what was he doing here?

"There are thousands awake now, get out of our way and stand down," Connor ordered them and they dropped their weapons, there was nothing to do, they were beaten.

"Are you okay?" Connor asked me as he saw me limp up the stairs.

"Yes, I can still function," I told him and he smiled at me, I looked at Hank.

"Hank it's best if you go home," I told the old man to go home and to my suprise, he agreed.

"There is nothing else I can do, right Connor?" Hank asked rhetorically and I realized there was nothing else I can do either, I was too injured.

"Hank take me to see Sumo... please," I pleaded for him to let me see my pup.

"What why? How do you know my dog?" Hank questioned.

"I'm his mother, why do you think he's so well trained without you ever training him? The day you found him in your lawn, I was in the bushes watching close. I used to be an Animal Control dog and I spared Sumo when he was a pup," I told him a quick version of my long story and he looked shocked, to say the least.
