The android opened eyes, adjusting its sensors to the sights and sounds around it. Its head moved as it began analyzing its space. It was in a small dark room with a large wooden table sat in the middle of the area. Blueprints and designs covered the table. They looked like blueprints for itself. Four well-dressed people were crowded around the table, looking at android design blueprints. They seemed... frustrated.

"Is it operational?" The android heard from behind it, turning its head towards the noise.

"Yea it's on." Another voice, this time in front of it said, tracking the android's movements.

"Will you two stop fucking around with that machine!" An older man at the head of the table commanded. The two middle-aged men next to the android retreated back to the table without a word. Taking their place next to a woman in a red dress.

The man at the head of the table ran his hand over his face, "Ugg, how the hell did you let this happen!" He shouted, directing his rage towards a tall, muscular man who looked like he was in his mid-twenties.

"Well, umm, there was no sign of forced entry. They must have gotten through the front entrance." He answered, scared. He wasn't looking at the man but instead down at the table.

"How? If I remember correctly you created a system to prevent this very thing." There was a strong amount of venom in his voice as he reprimanded the young individual.

"I don't know sir, they must have known the password." The young man's voice went up an octave, attempting to defend himself.

"That password was sent out to a few selected and trusted people, how would four cops get their hands on it!" The man yelled, his voice echoed throughout the room, causing everyone to freeze. The android continued to blankly stare in front of it.

"We don't have an answer for that yet sir, we're trying our best." The young man stated, trying to ease the man's blame off of himself.

"Get out." The older man's command was lower and quieter than before was but it didn't mean the order was any less powerful.

"Yes, sir." Was all the young man said, head hung low, stepping back from the table and exited the room.

The space became eerily quiet after the doors shut with a muffled thud. The older man shifted his weight, standing back up to his full height.

"Victor, Mathew, it works right?" He questioned, pointing at the android still standing in the corner of the room.

"Yes sir, it works. It proved itself very efficient last Saturday." The shorter of the two men replied. "However there are some flaws in its code. We hope we would be able to earn enough money to fix them tonight. But with the whole cops showing up and all..."

"Rachel, do you have descriptions of the cops at all." The head of the table asked the woman standing closest to him.

Rachel nodded, "We have the identity of two and a description of the others. Hank Anderson, works for the DPD at the Central Station Precinct as a Lieutenant and Gavin Reed, who also works at the Central Station Precinct as a Detective. The other two must have been androids as they both share the same face and build like this one." She responded, directing to the expressionless android. "Well, not exactly, but similar."

"What do you mean by that?" The taller of the two men next to her asked.

Rachel walked away from the table towards the android. "Well, first of all, the one I interacted with had black hair. This one has dark brown hair and its eyes are hazel colored. The other one had blue-gray eyes. I can't exactly say for sure on the other one, I never met him personally"

"I'm afraid we can't change that though, we had to remove some of its features so it would become more operational. Including its customization options." The shorter man told her.

"Well Victor, I was making an observation." She snapped back.

Victor held his head low in shame, "Apologies." He said quietly.

Rachel sighed, "It... doesn't matter." She strode back to her spot at the table, placing both of her hands on top of the wooden surface, "What's the plan, Lorenzo?"

"If it works, send it out after them. The sooner they are off our trail the sooner we can continue." Leonard answered, "Make sure it looks like an accident or suicide, I know about Anderson and Reed, nobody would be surprised if either of them killed themselves."

"Yes, sir." Victor complied, he shuffled to the android who had moved its gaze from the back wall to Victor.

"RK900, register your name." Victor looked straight up to the android's face, "Caine."

"My name is Caine."
