Before you went into the Maze. Before you were dropped into the Scorch. Before you escaped from the very people who raised you -- you worked for them. Brought to WICKED headquarters when you were no older than seven years old by your father, you were employed by them. You made friends. You met a guy. You were as close to happy as it was possible to be with the world half in flames; so happy, in fact, you almost wished you hadn't found out what they were really trying to do. What they intended to do to you. To Alby, Minho, Thomas. To Newt. You almost wished you didn't have to stop them. Almost.

You're only the second girl to wake up in the Glade, disoriented and confused. The only difference: you remember everything. Every Glader, every custom, every twist and turn of the Maze. The only thing you don't know, is how it's all possible. As you struggle through the Maze, and beyond, you begin to wonder... why did WICKED send you up there? What were they hoping to achieve? And what lengths will they go to to get you back? On top of everything else, you can't help but notice one young boy, with a strange accent and tired eyes. He's kind and brave, and unfortunately, should be the least of your concerns -- but you don't get to choose who you fall in love with, right?

You've complained about walking the beat in Detroit for years. Petty crimes, protests, no real action... So when Captain Fowler gave you orders to respond to a hostage situation, you couldn't resist. And then you got shot, only to be saved by the android sent by CyberLife... • Highest Rankings: #1 in Connor, Detroitbecomehuman, ConnorxReader & Video Games • ~215k words not including notes • See end chapter notes for more info and profile for Discord invite.

"If nature has taught us anything it is that the impossible is probable." The course of Connor's life as an android changes when he meets Sergeant Lee Hart. He meets her at the same bar a day before he meets Hank. He goes to look for Hank that night only to find Lee. She offers him to sit next to her and share a drink with her to which Connor declines. Lee then makes a bet that if she flips a coin and it lands on tails, Connor stays and if it lands on heads, he can go. Connor agrees and with a flip of a coin, his entire fate changes as Lee enters his life. She along with Hank began to make him question his obedience to Cyberlife, but at what cost? The probability of an android falling in love with a human is highly unlikely....right? Disclaimer: Follows the games story loosely with added in parts and fillers. Time leading up to the Detroit Android rebellion is a bit skewered. This story deals with racism that both my black OC experiences along with androids. If that bothers you, don't read! :) (Cover is made by qlossxier ! Check her out! ♡)
