President Warren didn't keep her word. Of course she didn't.


Even though she was moved by Markus action's when he was about to get shot, when he came to Washington and asked for equality for androids, he disappeared mysteriously, as well as North, Josh and Simon.

The only one left to command the deviants was Connor.


And the President didn't make things easy for him, as the humans started a war against the deviants inside Detroit, having evacuated all the humans in it.

Everything was smoke, explosions and rubble, the humans starting to use bombs to destroy the androids. They also cut every access to military supplies and the deviants soon were short on munitions and guns.

So they created bows, wood traps and mastered the guerilla warfare type of fight.


Time passed and the fight never stopped. Connor had eventually to quit his previous "deviant clothes" as he liked to call them to wear a leather tunic, trousers and boots and had started to fight with a bow.


He was with a small group of other androids, scavenging in the streets, his bow in his hands, when he met soldiers. It was not the first time, but he had to be carefull. It was what got him the scar on his hand after all.

The humans at first aimed their rifles towards them :

- Surrender ! You are outnumbered and we are taking you back to Cyberlife !

Connor didn't wasted time answering.

He took an arrow from his quiver, his LED turning yellow at the idea of what was going to happen, and shot, running away with his comrades.

Connor ran, preconstructing while running, choosing the right path for his comrades, jumping above rubble, getting through doors that hung lose, turning right or left not to lead the humans into their HQ until... They lost the humans.

He noticed that one of his comrades was missing and was sad that they weren't able to come back from this expedition. They had what they were looking for but... at what cost ?
