''Conrad''
//Bioware, Dragon Age Inquisition. Xbox one, November 18, 2014.// Dragon Age Inquisition is a continuation of the Dragon Age series. It is an action roleplay game where you, the inquisitor, help save the world from a demon. I chose this specific game as one of my sources because of the choice system. There is a lot of dialog that will lead you to be a ruthless ruler, or a kind and forgiving leader who can relate to those that follow them. I like having options so that your game play is different than a friends. That’s what inspired me the most with this one.
//Quantic Dream, Detroit Become Human. PS4, May 25, 2018.// Detroit Become Human is an adventure type game where you play as three characters that can drastically alter the story, This is probably my favorite game because the story, the characters, and the choices all work so well together. In this game you play as the androids who are fighting for their freedom, as well as the detective android that I based Conrad off of in my story.
//Quantic Dream, Heavy Rain, PS3, February 18, 2010.// Heavy rain is a story about the origami killer. You play as many different characters in this story but it follows Ethan Mars as he tries to save his son’s life. I liked this game a lot, I just didn’t like how they offered choices to you. It made it confusing for me personally. So I made sure that my choices were clear and easy to read.
//Rockstar Games, Red Dead Redemption 2. Xbox One, October 26, 2018.// In RDR2 you follow the Van Der Linde Gang as they try to escape the law and make money. You play as Arthur Morgan and is definitely up there with my favorite games. As much as I love this game, it told you exactly what to do and how to do it constantly. Which is something I didn’t want. It’s a little hard when you’re writing a story to give your reader a lot of freedom like these open world games but what I really liked about this Game was the honor system. If you were good and high honor you got the good ending, if not, well i'm sure you can figure that one out.
//Toby Fox, Undertale. PC, September 15, 2015.// The player controls a child who has fallen into the Underground and can fight monsters. What’s unique about this game is that even if you reload the game knows. Characters will say they’ve seen you before and it adds a whole other feeling. You can also choose to completely passifict your way through the game. You don’t have to fight at all. Which is really unique, there aren’t many games that will let you do that. Most games even have characters that the player has to kill.
//Bethesda, Skyrim, Xbox One, November 11, 2011.// Skyrim is an open world adventure game where you the Dovahkiin must slay Alduin the World Eater. In this game you have “choices.” Unlike others, skyrim’s choice system is a lot of how you play. Are you a thief and an archer, or a strong warrior that charges into battle. There are dialog options and that is a really cool part about this game. However what I would love to do for mine, would be to add on extras. Like DLC content. Skyrim is known for not only it’s goofy bug’s but also having one of the biggest modding communities out there. Having all the addons the players have created really help the lore and even make the gameplay more exciting. It definitely gave me some ideas for my final project.
//DigitalExposureTv, Twin 2.0 - Introduction / Tutorial #1.// This is the beginning of a series about Twine and how it works. I used almost everything in all of his videos because I was lost. It was really helpful for me because Twine is used for non-linear stories. That and because of this assignment I got offered a job. So these videos were a massive help to both this project and my future career paths. So thanks to DigitalExposureTv!
//David Slade, Bandersnatch. Netflix, December 28, 2018.// Bandersnatch is an interactive movie that gives you a lot of choices that will help Stephen create his game. I loved how every small choice would affect your gameplay. I pinked Frosties and there was a commercial on one of the TV’s later in the video for frosties. The whole experience was absolutely amazing and it really immerses you into a world where you are control this boy who has his life just spiral out of control.
//Edward Packer, Escape from Tenopia, Bantam Books 1986.// You are the only survivor of a space shuttle crash on Tenopia. Your goal is to get back home. This book is the reason I wanted to draw pictures for my story game. I liked the idea of having something for people to visualize rather than read it out. Plus I feel that the pictures are more appealing to people. Especially those who don’t like to read. This book was enjoyable to me because there were pictures. When I think of games I think of amazing or pleasing graphics not a book usually. So it made it feel more homely?
//No Code, Observation. PS4, May 21 2019.// Observation is a little more unique than other choose your own adventure games, because you don’t play as the main character. You play as the A.I SAM and help Emma Fisher find out what happened to the rest of the Crew at the Space station. This is where I got the A.I. concept and I wanted to do something like this game originally but I ended up not doing that. I really liked the concept of this game though. You either help Emma or go against her which is something that is very Common in Adventure games, the good and the bad.
//Psysop, KFC, I Love You, Colonel Sanders! A Finger Lickin’ Good Dating Simulator. Steam, September 24, 2019.// This is a dating simulator where you get with Colonel Sanders. However, although it is an amazing game, and it is funny. It has a lot of subplots and enemies that don’t make sense. Like the meatball monster. It just didn’t make sense, however it was enjoyable nonetheless. I just don’t want my story to personally have chaotic vibes rolling off of it.
//Game Grumps, Dream Daddy. PC, July 20, 2017.// You play as a Dad who just moved him and his daughter to a new city. You get to meet all your options as the game goes on. You get to choose which Dad is for you. Unlike KFC, the endings make more sense. The cult ending actually makes sense and ties in with the story. This game does wacky well. Which is a good thing to have in an adventure game like this. Especially a dating sim. /

Knighthood Ceremony, www.medieval-life-and-times.info/medieval-knights/knighthood-ceremony.htm.//
This was about the knighting ceremony back in the day. This helped me think more about how traditional I would like this futuristic version of europe should be. I knew I wanted their to be a knighting scene so I looked up how they used to do it. There were somethings that I cut out because I felt it was too much. So I kept in a couple things and this helped me decide just how old fashioned this place will be. I didn’t want to mess up this ceremony so I did a lot of research on this so I wouldn’t ruin the idea or actual concept. If I'm honest I got the idea from Cars 2 the childrens movie.

Just a simple article about writing Detective stories. This was extremely useful to me because it brought up topics I may have overlooked. One of the biggest things I took away was the red herring idea. It’s super simple but once I looked into it the more I realized almost every mystery has one. So I tried to implement that into my own story as well. I made the characters aware of this at times so they can be more conflicted about evidence. Another thing that this helped me with was the evidence itself.

I had never watched Sherlock before and I decided that since I’m not well versed in writing mysteries I would watch the first few episodes of Sherlock. It was really helpful because it is set in Europe and a good mystery show. There is a lot of detail put into the mysteries in the show which was really helpful to try and make my own mystery stronger.

This video helped me learn about the Parliament, they go through how it works. I watched this one because I don’t know much about the UK and I wanted to learn more. In case I wanted a court case inside of my story I needed to know how things worked. I didn’t put the whole court case in the story because of how the endings worked out. However it was still helpful to learn about this so I could further my worldspace.

In the video they talk a lot about how their officers don’t need to carry guns because it’s safe in europe. So I took that concept and blew it out of proportion. I wanted this place to be high class and the opposite of New New York/ America.

''Chapter 1''
//Number Nine//
“Systems Online.” A female voice speaks up in the back of my mind, causing my CPU to light up as I’m brought out of sleep mode. “Model number 392 - 6798 - 3217 - 20 is now online. Please look at your objectives for further instructions.” She says as my blue eyes flutter open and begin to emit a soft blue glow as I scan my current location. I seem to be in a taxi flying over the superhighway in New New York. The seats are made from worn-out leather and there’s a coffee stain on the carpet to my right.
“Objectives please,” I speak allowed, allowing my objective’s list to slide down in the upper right corner of my CPU;
//Objectives
Investigate the crime scene
Look for clues
Analyze samples
Look for witnesses
Find Owen Stacy//
My internal fans whir softly as I take in the new information. Once I’ve digested my tasks, an alert pops up in my field of vision.
''//“Conrad: Model # 392 - 6798 - 3217 - 20 has been assigned to The Rose Garden Killer case. He is to assist precinct 12 in any way possible. If he does not comply he will be deactivated and replaced. Does he understand?//''
[[Yes]]
[[No->error]]
The alert fades away and I’m left to sit in the taxi as it flies through the cold winter sky. After twenty minutes of staring into the night sky, the taxi slows down and blue and red flashing lights invade my vision. The left door on the taxi opens upwards and I step out of the vehicle walking over to the digital caution tape. Before I could cross over a purple squid-like alien stopped me.
“Excuse me! You can not cross this line, sir. Police only.” He shouts and jogs over to me.
“I’m Conrad, the police A.I. sent by Tesla,” I say to him while handing over my badge and initiating smile protocol #95. He squints at my badge and chuckles while waving over another officer.
“Hey Jim, Tesla makes robots now.” He laughs a little between his words while Jim, another alien officer, walks over and grabs my badge. Jim looks from my badge and then back to me.
“It looks real enough, send the thing on through,” Jim says while handing me my badge back. I slide it back over my head and around my neck as I walk through the caution tape.
[[Investigate]][[''//error//''->Chapter one]]
With a quick scan of the area, I locate several spots that could have potential clues or DNA. I decided to start with the body. It’s a young woman maybe early twenties, long brown curly hair, and light skin. All of her limbs had been removed and then sewn back together; just like all the other victims. She had been strung up like a doll and dozens of red roses were placed around her forming a large circle at her feet. All the other victims were like this as well. That’s how the killer got their name. No one knew why they put all the roses at the feet of their victims. It’s just another mystery that I am determined to find out.
I carefully walk over to women, doing my best to not tamper with the scene. The skin on my fingers recedes showing the black plastic underneath. The pads of my fingers glow blue as I wipe them across several areas on the woman’s body.
//Jessica Morris
Age: 24
Birthdate: November 18th, 2076
Occupation: Works for Amazon International
No Criminal records//
I look over her files and then scan the rest of her body, looking for any other DNA particles. Sadly, I couldn’t find anything relevant to the case.
[[get yelled at]] ''“HEY! Get away from that gal!”''
A loud booming voice echoes through the alley. I look over and scan the man yelling at me.

//Owen Stacy
Age: 38
Birthdate: August 5th, 2062
Occupation: Detective for the NYPD
No Criminal records//
“Hello Detective Stacy, I’m Conrad your new partner. Tesla sent me to assist you and your precinct.” I say while activating smile protocol #26.
“Tesla sent me a robot… is this some sick joke?!” He half yells half questions in my face. “Ya know what, I don’t give a rat’s you know what. Just don’t touch the lady.” He says sternly.
“Sir, with all due respect. I was just trying to find out who she is-” I’m quickly cut off with a low growl from the taller man.
“That’s an order, uh, Conrad.” He shoots me a glare and then turns back to the officers he was talking to before. Owen is around 6’2” and has black hair, he has a beauty mark under his left eye and he looks incredibly tired. That must be why he has coffee. I don’t think he should be drinking around the crime scene but he is free to do as he pleases.
[[continue to investigate]] I back away from the woman and head over to some of the yellow markers on the ground. There are three in total. The first one is a sewing needle, I bend down and swipe my fingers across the tip. It’s a match for the victim. The second is a rouge rose, however with further inspection and a quick scan; this rose is a different species and not relevant to this case. The last marker is next to a small puddle of blood. I dip my fingers in the blood and it is not a match to the victim.
//Kennith Carrington
Age: 20
Birthdate: August 5th, 2080
Occupation: Unemployed
Criminal Records:
Drug dealer (Atraflexx)
Public indecency
Public Intoxication
Theft//
“Detective!” I call out and look over to Owen while I pull out my handkerchief and wipe the blood from my fingers.
“What is it tin can?” He grumbles while he walks over to me. “This better be good or so help me I’ll deactivate you myself.”
“The blood here isn’t the victims, it’s from a man named Kennith Carrington, he has a few things on his record,” I state and look at Owen with a neutral expression. I jump when he pats my shoulder.
“Maybe you aren’t so useless after all.” He smiles then looks over to some of the other officers and yells, causing a couple of them to jump, “Search the place for anything else!”
[[walk down the alley]]
I continued to look for clues further down the alley when I stumbled across a table with a cloth over it. I lift it up and I am face to face with Kennith Carington.

</div>
His eyes go wide and he bolts. I start to run after him when I hear Owen yell a new order at me,
“Conrad NO! Stay here!” he shouts at me from down the alley.
[[Chase The Suspect]]
[[Shoot the Suspect]]
[[Stay With Owen]] With the idea of being deactivated fresh in my mind, I disobey Detective Stacy’s orders. Kennith runs down the alley and turns left towards the bustling city and I follow suit. Behind me is the Detective, he’s cursing up a storm and saying some incoherent words as we chase the man down the colorful street. Kennith is fairly thin, with ginger hair and a beard. He looks behind him and his jaw drops.
“Stop Followin me!” Kennith screams and ducks down another alley. I follow him knowing he will get tired just as the detective already has. However I am state of the art technology, just a machine, I do not get tired.
“I just want to ask you some questions Kennith!” I spit his name out like venom after activating integration protocol #12. I chased him down Hellen street, one of many strip malls in New New York, when he ran right into another gentleman.
//‘This is my chance’ I thought.//
I jump and tackle Kennith to the ground. He punches me in the Jaw and then howls in pain.
“What are ye? Some machine?” He cries out and holds his hand as I flip him over and cuff him.
“You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can be used against you in court. You have the right to talk to a lawyer for advice before we ask you any questions. You have the right to have a lawyer with you during questioning. If you cannot afford a lawyer, one will be appointed for you before any questioning if you wish. If you decide to answer questions now without a lawyer present, you have the right to stop answering at any time.” I say as it is part of my coding and the law to let the perp know his rights. I was about to stand up when I’m yanked to my feet and smacked across the face by Detective Stacy.
“You’re in deep trouble. You disobeyed a direct order!” He shouts in my face then turns to Kennith. “And YOU.” Kennith flinches. “You are also in deep trouble for running off.” Owen yanks the man to his feet and walked him down the street with me in tow.
“I apologize for my behavior detective,” I say as I catch up with him.
“Shut your mouth and get in the car. We have work to do.” He snarls at me while shoving a squirming Kennith into the backseat.
''//Relationship Decreased ↓
Owen//''
[[Chapter Two->Bad path: CH 2]]
My eyes widen. I heard what the Detective said but there's no way I’m letting the perp get away. I could be deactivated and replaced if I did something like that. I reach down for my gun and rip it from the holster.
“Conrad stop!” I can hear Owen yelling and running towards me which puts my systems under stress. A loud bang rang out through the alley way; I missed.

Kennith turns around and stares at me in disbelief. He pulls his own firearm out and shoots back. Hitting me right between my eyes. I stumble back as violet liquid starts to pour out from the fresh hole in my head
“N-N-No.” I stutter through static. My CPU turns red and begins to countdown until shut down.
''5… 4… 3… 2… 1… SHUTDOWN''
My systems shutdown and the last thing I see is owen above me.
“Conrad!” He calls out and drops onto his knees looking at the now lifeless body.
''//You died
Reload?//''
[[walk down the alley]]
[[The End]]You stop in your tracks and obey his orders. While you watch the man run off down the alley.
“Detective… that was our chance to find something out. Why did you stop me?” You tilt your head and walk over to the detective.
“He could have been armed and I don’t need anyone getting shot at today, we already have one dead body, let's not make it two.” He sighs and then walks towards the entrance of the alley motioning for me to follow.
“Come with me kid, we’ve got some work to do back at the station.”

//The ride to the precinct was awkward, to say the least. Every time I tried to speak up, Owen would say.
“Shut your mouth robot.” or he would just growl at me. I caught the perp, didn’t I? Why was he so mad then, all I did was disobey his… his orders.
A loading circle appears in the lower right corner of my CPU and I look out the window as we fly over the superhighway.
My system’s rewarded me for catching the perp so they ignored the fact that I disobeyed a direct order for my current authoritative figure. //

“Here is our break room, there’s coffee and it’s where we store our lunch. Do NOT eat Niles’s yogurt.” He whispers the last part to me. The room isn’t big, but there are multiple machines on the counters as well as a fridge, microwave, and stove.
//All of which were supplied by tesla.//
Owen then drags me into a much bigger room. Full of offices and many other officers, detectives, and even the lieutenant. It’s much louder out here, everyone is running around frantically because of the new murder case. Owen sits down at his desk and then motions to the desk in front of his.
“That can be yours, no one's using it anyway.” Owen spins around in his chair and then logs into his computer.
I watch him for a second before I sit down and look at the computer in front of me. It’s the newest Mac Tower that was released by Apple. I put my hands on the electronic keyboard and interface with the computer. It is much more efficient than typing and manually going through the files myself. The detective and I send files back and forth while we type up the report.
[[Two Hours Later]]
It was about two hours into our work when I get a tap on the shoulder.
“Hey, you should go and talk to the chief. I’m sure she wants to meet you” Owen says to me. I nod and disconnect myself from the computer.
“Okay Detective,” I stand up and start to head towards her office when I’m stopped by another woman.
“Hey there! I’m Litenuet Mary Adams. Do you have just a second to talk to me?”

[[Talk to Mary]]
[[Talk to Amanda]]I think for a moment and then nod,
"I think the chief can wait. I am Conrad." I smile and sit down in the chair next to her desk quickly straightening my posture and then looking at her brown eyes.
“Splendid! It's so so nice to meet you… Once I heard you were going to be working here I got excited. I’ve heard about the work you guys do and I’m so happy you’re here to work on this case. Her tone sounded deceiving, almost sarcastic in away. Maybe it’s a bug in my systems, I’ll have to run a diagnostic check tonight.
“I am glad to be here too, I will solve my case as soon as I can and I might get to stay here permanently.” I smile at her again and she looks away for a second while inhaling deeply.
“That makes me very happy Conrad, I hope we can be the best of friends. Oh! And don’t trust Owen. I think he might be…” she leans in close and whispers. “Well I think he’s a rat, I mean you saw what he did when he saw the perp today.” She shakes her head and pats my shoulder.
“Best of luck to you sweetie. Now go and meet with Amanda.”
[[Walk away]]I think for a moment and then shake my head no.
“I’m sorry Ma’am but the detective gave me an order to go and talk to Chief Amanda. Maybe we can talk later on.” I activate smile protocol #10 and then head up the stairs to the glass office.
[[knock on the door]]
[[walk inside]]“Come on in” A stern voice calls out from inside the room. I open the door and a short woman with a buzzcut is staring outside the window. “Conrad… right?”

“Yes ma’am, I’m Conrad, the A.I. sent by tesla to assist precinct 12,” I say while straightening my posture. She turns around and her icy blue stare pierces through my “soul.” We stare at each other for a minute and twelve seconds before she begins to laugh.
“No need to have a stick up your arse, I’m Amanda. Or Chief Williams if you need to be professional and whatevs.” She sits in her chair and motions for me to sit as well.
“My apologies, I will try to be more relaxed.” I sit down and look at her as she pops some candy into her mouth.
“No need to be sorry for your programming, now let’s get down to business.” She clasps her hands together.
[[Talk About the Case]] "Do you even know how to knock?" I look at the shorter woman and then look away, slightly... ashamed? She sighs and gives me a glare “Conrad… right?”

“Yes ma’am, I’m Conrad, the A.I. sent by tesla to assist precinct 12. My apologies for intruding, I will knock next time” I say while straightening my posture. She turns around and her icy blue stare pierces through my “soul.” We stare at each other for a minute and twelve seconds before she begins to laugh.
“No need to have a stick up your arse, I’m Amanda. Or Chief Williams if you need to be professional and whatevs. You should always knock before you enter a room Con, or else you might get shot” She winks at me before she sits in her chair and motions for me to sit as well.
“My apologies, I will try to be more relaxed.” I sit down and look at her as she pops some candy into her mouth.
“No need to be sorry for your programming, now let’s get down to business.” She clasps her hands together.
[[Talk About the Case]]“You’re on The Rose Garden Killer case, We’ve been at it for nine months now and at any moment the psycho could strike again,” Amanda says. “He’s killed nine so far, I heard you let the suspect go in the alley today. Although I am upset, it was not your fault.” She pinches the bridge of her nose and says something about Detective Stacy under her breath.
“If you would like I will make the mission my priority from here on out,” I state breaking her train of thought.
“Yeah, do that for me? I need this guy caught and we can’t afford to lose any leads on this case. We have a month until the next killing. That will make it ten.” She stands up and looks down at me. “If you don’t catch them by then, all jokes aside. I will send you back to Tesla’s doors. Do you understand?” If I had a heart I’m sure it would have stopped. She just threatened me, I-I don’t know how to feel.
''//Wait//''
//I can’t feel?//
[[Yes I Understand]]
[[~~No I Don't listen to you~~->error 2]]
“Yes Ma’am I understand, I will catch the killer.” I stand up and activate smile protocol #12.

“That’s good to hear Con, Goodluck.” She grins and then turns her chair around.
“Thank you for your time,” I say as I head out of her office and down the glass stairs. I pass by several officers that give me strange looks until I make it back to my desk. I look over to the detective’s empty seat and I sigh. There's a blue sticky note on the desk that reads.
“went home, see you tomorrow - Owen”
I finish up my reports and file away anything that could be useful in this case before I head into the security room of the precinct to charge overnight.
[[Chapter Three]]
[[~~errroooorr~~->Talk About the Case]]
~~you dont have feelings~~''Chapter 3:
The Twist''
Two weeks go by and nothing of interest happens. Detective Owen and I got a lot closer. I learned he has a cat, I like cats. The Chief was mad at us for letting Kennith go but there wasn’t much I could do about that, I was given an order and I followed it. Plus it brought Owen and I closer together. It was nice having a friend?
Sadly because we didn’t catch Kennith there was no way for us to know if he was the killer or not.
Since it had happened for two weeks and the whole station was worried we wouldn’t catch the killer.
“CONRAD, OFFICE NOW!” I hear Amanda scream at me from her office. I stand up and adjust my new uniform before walking up to her office.
[[Talk to Amanda->TTA1]]As I stand up and walk towards the chief's office, I start to feel...
no not feel, I can't do that.
I believe that there is something fishy going on in the precinct. I do not believe what Mary told me. She has no evidence plus her vocal tones and pitches were off. She had the same tone as a liar. I shake my head as I walk up the stairs to the chief's office
[[Walk Inside->walk inside Mary]]
[[Knock on the Door->knock on the door Mary]] The ride to the precinct was awkward, to say the least. Every time I tried to speak up, Owen would say.
''“Shut your mouth robot,”'' or he would just growl at me. I caught the perp, didn’t I? Why was he so mad then, all I did was disobey his… his orders.
A loading circle appears in the lower right corner of my CPU and I look out the window as we fly over the superhighway.
My system’s rewarded me for catching the perp so they ignored the fact that I disobeyed a direct order for my current authoritative figure.
//“Detective.”// I mumble, earning a glare from the other man. “I apologize for disobeying your order. I shouldn’t have done that, I just didn’t want to get deactivated for missing this opportunity. That is still no excuse.” I say louder so he can hear me. He snorts and continues to ignore me all the way back to the station. He parks in the back of the station and then takes the silver keycard out of the ignition. I go to open the door when the locks go back down.
“I appreciate the apology, Conrad. It does not make up for you going against me orders, as your superior I expect you to follow the rules. However, I am glad we got the suspect. Now let's go integrate the dirty dog.” He pats my shoulder and unlocks the car so we can get out. He yanks the suspect out of the car and we take him to the interrogation room.
[[Interegate]]The ride to the precinct was awkward, to say the least. Every time I tried to speak up, Owen would say.
“Shut your mouth robot.” or he would just growl at me. I caught the perp, didn’t I? Why was he so mad then, all I did was disobey his… his orders.
A loading circle appears in the lower right corner of my CPU and I look out the window as we fly over the superhighway.
My system’s rewarded me for catching the perp so they ignored the fact that I disobeyed a direct order for my current authoritative figure.
I shake my thoughts off and glare out the window. How could he be mad at me when I got the job done. He just wanted me to let the perp go. I cross my arms and initiate annoyed protocol #5.
When we arrive at the station he parks in the back and then gets out of the car, yanking Kennith out of the car.
“Get ready for the interrogation Conrad. You better not disobey that order too, you piece of junk.” Owen shoves the perp inside and I get my protocols ready.
[[Interegate]] Owen tried to crack Kennith for twenty minutes before he walked back into the other side of the two-sided glass to most likely yell at all of us. Kennith however, sat there with a smug smirk on his face.
“He won’t budge. I tried, Niles tried, what are we supposed to do?!” Owen shouts and looks at the alien officer from before.
“I don’t know sir.” He says back to Owen which only frustrates the man more. I wanted to go in and interrogate the suspect but I knew Owen would say no.
“Send the bot in.” A female voice announces. I looked over to find the owner of the voice and I’m met with none other than Chief Amanda Williams. She has a smug look on her face and she stares at Owen, awaiting the tsunami of backlash.

“With all due respect Chief, He is terrible at following orders.” Owen spits out.
“You mean the order you gave him to not catch a potential witness or even murderer?” She questions and crosses her arms. Owen was about to retaliate when she shushes him. “Can it Stacy.” She hisses and then looks at me, “Conrad, right?” I nod my head yes and she smiles stepping out of the doorway. “Go get him to cough up some information for me.” She smiles as I walk over to her.
“Yes, ma’am.” I nod my head and grab the file case from outside the interrogation room. It’s up to me now.
[[Good Cop]]
[[Bad Cop]]
I walk into the dull room and pull out one of the grey chairs across from Kennith. I adjust my shirt and then put my hands onto the table, locking my fingers together.

“Hello Kennith. I’m Conrad.” I say as I activate smile protocol #209.
“Yeah, you’re the idiot who chased me and broke my hand.” He grumbles and looks away from me. I close my eyes and activate interrogation protocol #5.
“Yes, I did. However your blood was at the crime scene and I don’t want you to be suspected as the killer.” I smile again and wait for a response. All I got was a dirty look and then a small shrug.
[[continue this approach->Good]]
[[Threaten him->Brutal approach]] I walk into the dull room and then glance at the mirror. I walk over to the metal table and slam the case file onto the desk. I activate interrogation protocol #9 and then get to work.
“Why did you do it HUH?” I shout at the now shocked man in front of me. “Do you get enjoyment from cutting people up? You sick bastard!” I circle the table hoping for a response but get nothing. I stare into Kennith’s eyes and await an answer.
“You’re still not gonna talk to me?” I glare at him and then sigh.
[[Brutal approach]]
[[soften up->Good]]I glance at the mirror then look back to Kennith.
“I know what you deal Ken… if you tell me what you were doing there, I can get those charges dropped.” I stare at the man in front of me. Finally, I piqued his interest.
“I um, I dunno what you’re talkin bout.” He crosses his arms.
“Kennith, I know you know what I’m talking about. I can drop those charges against you. You just have to tell me what happened.” I say with a calm voice and a bit of a head tilt. His stern face finally breaks.
[[Hear him Out]]
“Alright…” He huffs. “I dunno what that guy was doin, he was laughing and setting up that woman. I was… I was high and the blood was probably from when I uh, I got myself in the arm.” He rolls his sleeve up and shows me a huge gash in his vein. “The pump missed and it blew a hole in my vein, lucky to be alive I am.” I was shocked he opened up to me so fast.
“Thank you, I will make sure to get you medical attention as well as drop those charges.” I stand up and smile again.
“Thank you, Detective.” I try not to smile too much and then shake my head.
“I’m no detective, just the A.I. sent by Tesla.” I smile one last time at Kennith before I walk out and into the room where the Detective’s and Chief still stand
[[Talk to Amanda->Talk to Amanda 2]]I close my eyes and walk over to him, I grab a fistful of his shirt and pull him up to my level. I opened my eyes and stared deep into his own, letting out a low snarl.

“Listen up. If you don’t speak up soon I’m going to through you in jail for a long long time. You’re and Atraflexx dealer, nothing but scum. No one but your druggie friends are going to miss you and your sorry hide. So either tell me why you were in that alley or rot in jail.” I slam him back down into his seat and walk away from the table, pretending to cool off.
“A-Alright… I uh… I didn’t kill nobody…” Kennith all but whispers.
“I dunno what that guy was doin, he was laughin and setting up that woman. I was… I was high and the blood was probably from when I uh, I got myself in the arm.” He rolls his sleeve up and shows me a huge gash in his vein. “The pump missed and it blew a hole in my vein, lucky to be alive I am.” I smirk and pick up the case file.
“Thank you for your cooperation,” I wave at the mirror signaling to take him away.
“H-hey, I told you all I know… you gotta let me out!” Kennith shouts.
“I didn’t promise anything,” and with that, I shut the door and walk back over to the chief and detectives.
[[Talk to Amanda->Talk to Amanda 2]] When I head back into the other room I get a pat on the shoulder from the chief.
“See boys. That’s how you should integrate. Amazing job Con.” Amanda praises me and all I can do is smile. I feel a little bad for promising things that we may not be able to do, but I made some groundbreaking information. “Now I need full reports on my desk by tomorrow please.” She smiles and then leaves the room.
“Our killer has been identified as male, if we get an artist here maybe our druggie can put a face to him.” Owen speaks up. “And as much as I hate to say it… good job robot boy.” Owen gives me a nod of approval and then motions for me to follow him.
[[Follow Owen]] Owen proceeds to drag me into a much bigger room. Full of desks and many other officers, detectives, and even the lieutenant. It’s much louder out here, everyone is running around frantically because of the new murder case. Owen sits down at his desk and then motions to the desk in front of his.
“That can be yours, no one's using it anyway.” Owen spins around in his chair and then logs into his computer.
I watch him for a second before I sit down and look at the computer in front of me. It’s the newest Mac Tower that was released by Apple. I put my hands on the electronic keyboard and interface with the computer. It is much more efficient than typing and manually going through the files myself. The detective and I send files back and forth while we type up the report.
[[Two Hours later->chapter end]]
Owen taps me on the shoulder and then yawns. “I think I’m gonna go to the bar. Cya tomorrow I guess.” Owen stands up from his desk and stretches a little.
“Don't fry your circuits over trying to finish that report. Amanda seems strict but she isn't.” Owen says to me right before leaving the building.
I finish up my reports and file away anything that could be useful in this case before I head into the security room of the precinct to charge overnight.
[[Chapter Three-> Chapter 3]]''Chapter 3:
The Twist''
Two weeks go by and nothing of interest happens. Detective Owen and I have our disagreements. He still isn’t happy with me for disobeying his orders and I don’t blame him. Kennith was let go. The station thanked him for his information as well as a sketch of our potential killer.
The face we got from the sketch didn’t match with anyone on file so it wasn’t useful in that department. However, that doesn’t make it useless. I suggested that we plaster this sketch all over New New York. Streetlights, oxygen pumps, buildings, as well as the news. New New York was covered in the supposed identity of The Rose Garden killer. Kennith’s story checked out, his vein was blown open by the Atraflexx pump, that’s how his blood was at the scene.
This was the first time our killer had been careless and left some clue towards his identity. Sadly we were lost after this. Nothing had happened for two weeks and the whole station was worried we wouldn’t catch him.
“CONRAD, OFFICE NOW!” I hear Amanda scream at me from her office. I stand up and adjust my new uniform before walking up to her office.
[[Talk to Amanda->TTA]]"Do you even know how to knock?" I look at the shorter woman and then look away, slightly... ashamed? She sighs and glares at me “Conrad… right?”

“Yes ma’am, I’m Conrad, the A.I. sent by tesla to assist precinct 12. My apologies for intruding, I will knock next time” I say while straightening my posture. She turns around and her icy blue stare pierces through my “soul.” We stare at each other for a minute and twelve seconds before she begins to laugh.
“No need to have a stick up your arse, I’m Amanda. Or Chief Williams if you need to be professional and whatevs. You should always knock before you enter a room Con, or else you might get shot” She winks at me before she sits in her chair and motions for me to sit as well.
“My apologies, I will try to be more relaxed.” I sit down and look at her as she pops some candy into her mouth.
“No need to be sorry for your programming, now let’s get down to business.” She clasps her hands together.
[[Talk about the Case->Talk About the Case Mary]]“Come on in” A stern voice calls out from inside the room. I open the door and a short woman with a buzzcut is staring outside the window. “Conrad… right?”

[[Talk to Amanda-> TTA2]]Her door is wide open and she’s sitting at her desk and the Chief does not look happy.
“The druggie we let go was murdered and strung up in a very public place.” She says while glaring holes through my circuit boards. “You need to go and find your stupid detective partner and go look at the case.” She crosses her arms and leans back in her chair. If I’m honest she looks like a toddler throwing a tantrum. However, she is my boss which means my objectives list has been updated.

''“Good… Now Get OUT!”'' She yells at me while waving her hands in a shooing like motion. I walk out of her office and go around the back of the building to get one of the squad cars.

"Now where could the detective be?
[[The Bar]]
[[His Home]]I arrive at Tommy’s Bar. The Detective made the mistake of posting pictures of his alcoholic drinks on Facebook. I walk up to the door and see a “Humans Only” sign in the window, but I ignored it and walked inside anyway. I look human enough, the only feature that sets me apart is my glowing blue eyes. However, I can always lie about them. I look around the old school bar and see the detective sitting at the counter.

“Detective,” I say as I walk up to the man. “I need you to come with me, there has been another murder,” I say loud enough for him to hear me but quiet enough so no one else in the bar can make out what I said.
“Why are you in here? Can’t you read?” He glares at me and then finishes the shot he was just given. “Hey Tommy, this is that plastic cop I was telling you about,” Owen says while motioning to me.
“I am not made out of plastic.” I huff out in my defense which only earns me an eye roll. “Detective we really should get going.” I really am trying to get him to come with me but he won’t budge.
[[push him further]]I head to Detective Stacy’s apartment. He lives on the 300th floor of one of Amazon’s apartment buildings. I head to room 30078 giving a crisp knock on the wooden door. I wait a minute before knocking again. Either he is passed out or not home. Of course, my mind goes to him being dead on the floor so I hack into the door’s software and unlock the pesky door. I step inside and scan the place for any signs of life.
My sensor picks up something in the backroom.
[[Invetigate]]I look around the clean apartment once more and then walk down the simplistic hallway. I slowly slide open the door to what seems to be the detective's bedroom. Inside I find not the detective, but a cat?
I kneel next to the black cat and hold my hand out for it to sniff me. The small animal sniffs my hand and then rubs its cheek against my fake skin. I can’t help the strange… emotion? That builds up in my chest as I pet the soft cat. I’m quickly brought out of my trance when I hear the safety of a gun click off.

</div>
I turn around and look up to see none other than the Detective himself.
“So do you always go around breaking into people’s homes? Or am I just special? I thought you were some psycho” His words are slurred, he must’ve been at the bar. I stand up and look at him as he puts his gun back down.
“We have a case detective. Kennith was murdered and we need to go to the crime scene.” I say but that only earns a laugh from the intoxicated man.
“I ain’t going nowhere tin can.” He stumbles forward and almost falls onto his face.
“Alright detective.” I grab ahold of the man and walk him into his bathroom. I push him in the shower and then press a button. Coldwater shoots out from the ceiling and all over the now screaming detective.
“Sorry, but I don’t want the Chief to yell at either one of us.” I smile.“I’ll be in your living room while you get dressed.” I walk away not giving the angry man a chance to say anything to me.
[[Wait for Owen]]I ignore whatever Owen decides to yell at me and sit down on his grey sofa. The apartment is bland, there are takeout boxes on the counters as well as some empty bottles of beer. I’ve discovered Owen is lazy. I have also discovered that I-
I like cats.
Especially the detective's cat. She is very soft. The second I see the small cat again I pick her up and set her down in my lap. She meows at me and proceeds to rub all over my uniform. I keep petting her, losing track of time again as I do so.
“I didn’t know you liked cats.” I hear Owen say from behind me causing me to jump.
“I um… I don’t. I can’t like things.” I stuttered out through a bit of static in my voice.
Am I glitching? No that can’t be I am a state of the art machine, I do not glitch out.
“I just like the texture of the cat,” I state while setting the cat down onto the ground.
“Sure thing bud. Now you have to drive because-”
“Because you’re still intoxicated. I know,” I smile and lead him back to the squad car I borrowed.
[[Head to the Crime Scene]]When we arrive at the crime scene, the first thing we can see is the massive barriers that surround the area. The killer put this body right in the middle of New Times Square. None of his other victims have been in such a public area before so we had to cover it up. He must be showing off this time. That even with his face all over the city, he can still do what he wants. I sigh as I stop the car and follow the detective through the electronic barrier.
On the other side is a gruesome sight. Owen gags and then look away from the man we knew as Kennith. I walk closer and analyze the body to make sure it is Ken.
//Kennith Carrington
Age: 20
Birthdate: August 5th, 2080
Occupation: Unemployed
Criminal Records:
none//
They really did wipe his records. I look over his body and take note of how it was done. Kennith wasn’t strung up like the others, but, impaled with a sword through his chest. He was stuck to one of the many oxygen pumps throughout the city. These machines provided oxygen to those who need it, so why destroy one? There was blood everywhere which didn’t fit the style of our usual killer. The only thing that remains the same is the roses. They were red but not naturally, Kennith’s blood coated the once white flowers.
The entire team spent about an hour checking every store nearby for footage from their security systems. However, nothing seemed out of the ordinary.
[[Check the blood on the ground]]I close my eyes and then take a fake deep breath.
“Tommy I would like to buy the Detective another beer.” I give the detective a smug grin and then pay for his drink.
“You may finish that one and then meet me in the car. We need to get going or the Chief will have both our heads.” I state and then walk towards the door. “You have ten minutes,” I say loud enough for everyone in the bar to hear before I head back to the squad car.
After nine minutes of waiting Owen emerges from the bar and then gets into the car, he doesn’t say a word as I drive us off to the crime scene.
[[Head to the Crime Scene]] I looked down at the ground and noticed something strange about the blood. It wasn’t splattered around, it was a letter?
“Detective Stacy! I need the police drone.” I yelled as I backed away from the body and blood.
“Why?” He questions.
“I just need one. NOW!” I yell and look back at the man, my blue eyes glowing a much darker blue as I glare at the still intoxicated man.
“Alright alright… Get the plastic man his drone!” He shouts at one of the officers who swiftly brings me my drone. I connect myself to the drone’s live footage feed and send it up into the air. Once I feel I’m high enough I looked down at the blood on the pavement, and sure enough. There’s a J. However it’s not just a J.

“Detective… the blood spells out Julia.”
[[Chapter 4]]The second we get the name Julia, Owen and I hop back into the car and race down to the station. Sirens blaring and lights flashing. We were hoping we had enough to tie everything together finally. All we need is to find out who Julia is and we will have a lead to this case.
When we arrive at the precinct Owen goes to the bathroom to sober up while I sit down at my desk and begin my search. It took an hour to get a decent case going but we had something. I walk upstairs to Chief Williams’s office and knock on the door.
“Come in.” She announces, I open the glass door and sit down across from her.
“Ma’am I think I know who the killer is.” I look at her and then set the file down for her to look through. “Our killer is a man named James Aberdeen. He used to work at The Rose Garden Downtown, his ex-fiance, Julia, broke up with him the day before their wedding because she found her true calling in life.” Three weeks after this the murders began.” Amanda nods her head and flips through the files as I speak. “Now what really ties this together is that Kennith and Julia were together. They sell Atraflexx in the pit. If we can get to Julia before James kills her we can save her life and catch James in his own home, right here in New New York. I can do this.” I sit up in my seat and look at my Chief.
“Go get her and bring her here, then go get that monster. Dead or Alive. Doesn’t Matter.” She says sternly, handing me the folder back.
I head downstairs and set the file on my desk, then I stop and look at the keys.
[[Go Alone]]
[[Go with Owen->death]]Her door is wide open and she’s sitting at her desk and the Chief does not look happy.
“The druggie you let go was murdered and strung up in a very public place.” She says while glaring holes through my circuit boards. “You need to go and find your stupid detective partner and go look at the case.” She crosses her arms and leans back in her chair.

"Now where could the detective be?
[[Check the Bar]]
[[Check his house]]Her door is wide open and she’s sitting at her desk and the Chief does not look happy.
“The druggie you let go was murdered and strung up in a very public place.” She says while glaring holes through my circuit boards. “You need to go and find your stupid detective partner and go look at the case.” She crosses her arms and leans back in her chair. If I’m honest she looks like a toddler throwing a tantrum. However, she is my boss which means my objectives list has been updated.
//Objectives
Find the Detective
Go to the crime scene
Find the killer
Follow Orders
Don’t get killed.//
“Yes Ma’am, I will get right to it,” I say

"Now where could the detective be?
[[Check the Bar->Check the bar 2]]
[[Check his house->Check his house 2]]I arrive at Tommy’s Bar. The Detective made the mistake of posting pictures of his alcoholic drinks on Facebook so I could easily find him. I walk up to the door and see a “Humans Only” sign in the window, but I ignored it and walked inside anyway. I look human enough, the only feature that sets me apart is my glowing blue eyes. However, I can always lie about them. I look around the old school bar and see the detective sitting at the counter.

“Detective,” I say as I walk up to the man. “I need you to come with me, there has been another murder,” I say loud enough for him to hear me but quiet enough so no one else in the bar can make out what I said.
“Why are you here? Can’t you read the sign?” Tommy says while glaring at me. “Hey Tommy, this is that plastic cop I was telling you about. He's alright” Owen says while motioning to me.
“I am not made out of plastic.” I huff out in my defense which only earns me an eye-roll from both Tommy and the Detective. “Detective we really should get going.” I really am trying to get him to come with me but he won’t budge.
[[Push Him Further->push him further1]]I head to Detective Stacy’s apartment. He lives on the 300th floor of one of Amazon’s apartment buildings. I head to room 30078 giving a crisp knock on the wooden door. I wait a minute before knocking again. Either he is passed out or not home. Of course, my mind goes to him being dead on the floor so I hack into the door’s software and unlock the pesky door. I step inside and scan the place for any signs of life.
My sensor picks up something in the backroom.
[[Investigate->cat]]I look around the clean apartment once more and then walk down the simplistic hallway. I slowly slide open the door to what seems to be the detective's bedroom. Inside I find not the detective, but a cat?
I kneel next to the black cat and hold my hand out for it to sniff me. The small animal sniffs my hand and then rubs its cheek against my fake skin. I can’t help the smile that creeps onto my face as well as the emotions that build up in my chest as I pet the soft cat. I’m quickly brought out of my trance when I hear the safety of a gun click off.
I turn around and look up to see none other than the Detective himself.

“So do you always go around breaking into people’s homes? Or am I just special? I thought you were some psycho” His words are slurred, he must’ve been at the bar before. I stand up and look at him as he puts his gun back down.
“We have a case detective. Kennith the druggie we let go was murdered and we need to go to the crime scene.” I say but that only earns a laugh from the intoxicated man.
“I ain’t going nowhere. Imma sleeeep” He stumbles forwards and almost falls onto his face.
“Alright detective.” I grab ahold of the man and walk him into his bathroom. I push him in the shower and then press a button on the shower door. Coldwater shoots out from the ceiling and all over the now screaming detective. “Sorry, but I don’t want the Chief to yell at either one of us. She's still mad about the time we let Kennith go.” I smile.
“I’ll be in your living room while you get dressed.” I walk away not giving the angry man a chance to say anything to me.
[[Wait for Owen->WFO]]I ignore whatever Owen decides to yell at me and sit down on his grey sofa. The apartment is bland, there are takeout boxes on the counters as well as some empty bottles of beer. I’ve discovered Owen is lazy. I have also discovered that I-
I like cats.
Especially the detective's cat. She is very soft. The second I see the small cat again I pick her up and set her down in my lap. She meows at me and proceeds to rub all over my uniform. I keep petting her, losing track of time again as I do so.
“I didn’t know you liked cats.” I hear Owen say from behind me causing me to jump.
“I um… I don’t. I can’t like things.” I stuttered out through a bit of static in my voice.
Am I glitching? No that can’t be I am a state of the art machine, I do not glitch out.
“I just like the texture of the cat,” I state while setting the cat down onto the ground.
“Sure thing bud. Now you have to drive because-”
“Because you’re still intoxicated. I know,” I smile and lead him back to the squad car I borrowed.

[[Push him further->push him further2]]When we arrive at the crime scene, the first thing we can see is the massive barriers that surround the area. The killer put this body right in the middle of New Times Square. None of his other victims have been in such a public area before so we had to cover it up. He must be showing off this time. I sigh as I stop the car and follow the detective through the electronic barrier.
On the other side is a gruesome sight. Owen gags and then looks away from the man we knew as Kennith. I walk closer and analyze the body to make sure it is Ken.
//Kennith Carrington
Age: 20
Birthdate: August 5th, 2080
Occupation: Unemployed
Criminal Records:
Drug dealer (Atraflexx)
Public indecency
Public Intoxication
Theft//
I look over his body and take note of how it was done. Kennith wasn’t strung up like the others, but, impaled with a sword through his chest. He was stuck to one of the many oxygen pumps throughout the city. These machines provided oxygen to those who need it, so why destroy one? There was blood everywhere which didn’t fit the style of our usual killer. The only thing that remains the same is the roses. They were red but not naturally, Kennith’s blood coated the once white flowers.
The entire team spent about an hour checking every store nearby for footage from their security systems. However, nothing seemed out of the ordinary.
[[Check the blood on the ground->Check the blood on the ground1]]I looked down at the ground and noticed something strange about the blood. It wasn’t splattered around, it was a letter?
“Detective Stacy! I need the police drone.” I yelled as I backed away from the body and blood.
“Why?” He questions.
“I just need one. NOW!” I yell and look back at the man, my blue eyes glowing a much darker blue as I glare at the still intoxicated man.
“Alright alright… Get the man his drone!” He shouts at one of the officers who swiftly brings me my drone. I connect myself to the drone’s live footage feed and send it up into the air. Once I feel I’m high enough I looked down at the blood on the pavement, and sure enough. There’s a J. However it’s not just a J.

“Detective… the blood spells out Julia.”
[[Chapter 4->CH4 1]]I close my eyes and then take a fake deep breath.
“Tommy I would like to buy the Detective another beer.” I give the bartender a smug grin and then pay for his drink.
“You may finish that one and then meet me in the car. We really need to get going or the Chief will have both our heads.” I state and then walk towards the door.
After nine minutes of waiting Owen emerges from the bar and then gets into the car,
"Thanks for uh, not freaking out on me. Most people do." Owen says.
"I'm not most people." I smile as I drive towards New Times Square.
[[Head to the Crime scene->Head to the Crime scene 1]]Chapter 4:
Julia
The next week was spent trying to figure out our mystery woman named Julia. All precincts in the are were searching high and low for everyone named Julia in New New York. We tried to tie them to the cases and everything else when Owen of all people figures it out.
“Hey, I think I found our Julia,” Owen says to me. “Kennith had a girlfriend named Julia McCarty, Julia used to be engaged to a man named James Aberdeen who worked at the rose garden downtown… ” That’s when his voice hitches and Owen looks right at me.
“We’ve got to go find her now,” I say as I stand up and run past everyone and up the stairs to Amanda’s office.
“Owen Found her!” I shout startling both Chief Williams and one of the FBI agents. “S-Sorry Ma’am… Owen found the women as well as who the killer might be. Do we have permission to act upon this information?” I stand up straight, trying to look impressive in front of the FBI agent.
“Yes yes yes. Hurry, she could be dead for all we know.” Amanda sends me off with paperwork for any gear Owen and I might need from the vaults.
[[Tell Owen]]I look around the clean apartment once more and then walk down the simplistic hallway. I slowly slide open the door to what seems to be the detective's bedroom. Inside I find not the detective, but a cat?

“Hey, I think I found our Julia,” Owen says to me. “Kennith had a girlfriend named Juilia McCarty, Julia used to be engaged to a man named James Aberdeen who worked at the rose garden downtown… ” That’s when his voice hitches and Owen looks right at me.
“We’ve got to go find her now,” I say as I stand up and head to Amanda's office only to get stopped by Mary.
"Hey there Con, got a second?"
[[Talk to Mary->bad ending]]
[[Talk to Amanda->good ending]]I jog over to Owen and tell him the good news.
“Owen, Chief said we need to go ASAP.” I walk towards the elevator with Owen and we head down to the vault to get all the toys we might need. Owen offers to drive and we head to Julia’s house. Owen has a team surrounding the pit in case anyone tries to leave while we're down there
“I’m glad we are going to catch this killer, then maybe I can work permanently at precinct 12.” I smile and look over at Owen.
“Darn, I guess I'm stuck with a robocop,” He starts laughing at his joke but I don't understand this reference.
As soon as we arrive at the pit we get out and gear up. The pit is a massive crater in the middle of New New York. It was created during WWIII and now is home to a lot of the dangerous crowd. “We’ll have to go on foot from here, it’s not safe to have the car down there. There isn’t anywhere safe for it to fly.” Owen says while walking down into the massive pit.
Compared to the bright neon lights in the city, the pit is dark and dull. We walk for thirty minutes until we stop at Julia's home. It’s a small shack-like building that looks like it could fall over at any moment.
[[Knock on the Door->Knock on the Door3]]“Why don’t we go together? I heard what Owen said and I want to help you out. Owen hasn’t really been the best partner. He got you in trouble your first day. Right?” She smiles and holds out her hand. “I could get you promoted to real detective, people wouldn’t see you as a machine, but as a human.” She says.
[[Go with Mary]]
[[Go with Owen]]"Sorry, but I can't right now. Owen found something out and it could lead us straight to the killer." I bow my head a little to her and then run upstairs, barging into Amanda's office.
“Owen Found her!” I shout startling both Chief Williams and one of the FBI agents. “S-Sorry Ma’am… Owen found the women as well as who the killer might be. Do we have permission to act upon this information?” I stand up straight, trying to look impressive in front of the FBI agent.
“Yes yes yes. Hurry, she could be dead for all we know.” Amanda sends me off with paperwork for any gear Owen and I might need from the vaults.
[[Tell Owen->tellowen2]]
''Human…''
the word rings through my circuit boards. I smile and nod. “I’d like that a lot Mary. Owen just wants me to follow orders. If I wasn’t a machine then I could be free.” I shook her hand and then run upstairs barging into Amanda’s office.
“Owen Found her!” I shout startling both Chief Williams and one of the FBI agents. “S-Sorry Ma’am… Owen found the women as well as who the killer might be. Do we have permission to act upon this information?” I stand up straight, trying to look impressive in front of the FBI agent.
“Yes yes yes. Hurry, she could be dead for all we know.” Amanda sends me off with paperwork for any gear Mary and I might need from the vaults.
"Hey Chief? Can Mary go with me instead? Owen has been..." I can't belive I'm going to lie. "Owen has been drinking." I say barely above a whisper.
"Yes yes whatever it takes to save her life."
[[Go get Mary]]I think for a moment and then shake my head. “I’m sorry Mary but Owen and I are friends now, I want to catch this murderer with my friend.” I smile and head up the stairs to amanda, barging into her office.
“Owen Found her!” I shout startling both Chief Williams and one of the FBI agents. “S-Sorry Ma’am… Owen found the women as well as who the killer might be. Do we have permission to act upon this information?” I stand up straight, trying to look impressive in front of the FBI agent.

“Mary, Chief said we can go together.” I walk towards the elevator not noticing the grin Mary gives me as we go down into the vault to get our gear. Mary offers to drive and we head to Julia’s house. Mary insisted we didn’t need a big team, just the two of us.
“I’m glad we are going to catch this killer, then I can work permanently at precinct 12.” I smile and look over to Mary.
“Oh me to Con, Meee too.” She drags out her words a little as we stop at the edge of the pit. The pit is a massive crater in the middle of New New York. It was created during WWIII and now is home to a lot of the dangerous crowd. “We’ll have to go on foot from here, it’s not safe to have the car down there.

[[Knock on the Door]]I knock on the door once and receive nothing.
“Open up It’s NYPD.” I say, however when I knock again the door falls over and slams against the ground.
“Guess you don’t know your own strength Con.” Mary says while walking into the small building. We walked in cautiously and looked around the place. There was no one here and I was starting to doubt Owen even more. I scanned the place over and over but there was nothing.
“Conrad, look at this note.” Mary exclaims, I walk into the room where she is and see a note that I know wasn't there before. I read over the note and it says,

If you want to see Julia alive, come to the abandoned warehouse on the edge of the pit.
“We should hurry lieutenant!” I bolt out the door and Mary follows me as we run through the streets of the pit.
[[Go to the Warehouse]]I knock on the door once and receive nothing.
“Open up Its the NYPD,” I say, however when I knock again the door falls over and slams against the ground.
“Guess you don’t know your strength, Bud,” Owen says while laughing. I roll my eyes and take out my gun.
We walked in cautiously and looked around the place. There was no one here. I scanned the place over and over but there was nothing.
“Conrad, look,” Owen waves me over and all that's left is a rose and a small note,

[[Go to the Warehouse->Go to the Warehouse3]]I walk in first and Mary follows from behind me. We enter a massive room that has dust flying all over the place. I’m surprised Mary isn’t coughing up a storm. Plus the oxygen levels are extremely low in the pit. The only color in the room is the- The roses. There's thousands of red roses all over the floor and on top of them is Julia.
''Julia is alive.''
I look at her and she’s dressed up like an old fashioned Victorian women. Her Silver hair is nicely pinned up and she is held in place by black ropes.
“Julia!” I shout. “Stay put, I’ll get you down.” I start to walk over to Julia and she smiles at me. Her eyes widen and she starts to tear up, that’s when I hear the familiar sound of one of the electric shotguns being cocked. There is only one place to get those… The station. I turn around and I see Mary holding the shotgun at me.
//“Sorry Con, I couldn’t let you get away with this.”//
[[Chapter Five]]I walk in first and Owen follows closely behind me. We enter a massive room that has dust flying all over the place. I’m surprised Owen isn’t coughing up a storm.

The dull room is full of dark tones; The only color in the room is the- The roses. There are thousands of red roses all over the floor and on top of them is Julia.

“Mary, what is going on?” I ask her with static in my voice.
“Conrad, I didn’t want you to get mixed up in all of this, but Tesla made you too good of a detective.” She shakes her head and steps closer to me. “You see, James is the killer, but I happen to be one of his followers, yeah I know, I’m a rat.” She laughs loudly and her laughter is joined by another.
“Oh yes, Mary is amazing! She is going to get rid of you and then there won’t be anything to stop me from getting rid of all the she-devils like poor little Julia.” This voice belongs to none other than James Aberdeen. I look to my left and see a thin man with a crazed smile staring directly at me.

“You guys are disgusting. You’re killing because she did what? Hurt your little feelings?” I didn’t see a way out of this so I sent a message to Owen that told him what was going on and to hurry before they get Julia. All I needed was to distract them.
“SHUT UP!” He screams, “She ruined my life so now I will ruin hers by ending it.” He was fuming and ready to kill Julia.
I was not going to let her die.
[[Shoot Mary]]
[[Shoot James]]I scream at the sight in front of me, Owen runs up next to me and holds onto my shoulder.
"It's alright Con, we did everything we could."
I've never felt these feelings before. I was...
''//Angry//''
"You're sick!" I scream at the voice. I look up and see James Aberdeen. He was up on the balcony holding a small pistol as he cackles.
"You're going to pay for this," Owen yells and runs after him causing the thin man to bolt.
I ran after James and Owen, he had heavy feet so it wasn't hard to track him down. Halfway through Owen waved me on because he was tired.
I followed James until he stopped in the middle of a white Rose garden.
"Someone will paint these flowers, will it be you or me?" James Laughs and doubles over as he cackles. I step into the garden and I stare at him.
"Why James? Why kill so many women? Why kill her..." I'm almost begging him for an answer.
"You wanna know why you machine? Julia broke my heart! The day before my wedding she called it off so she could go do what? Sell Atraflexx with her new friends from med school! What a load of crap! We were so happy together and then she just left me." He glares at me through the tears in his eyes.

"ssSo I snapped, I killed nine women one for each month we were together. Each girl told a cute little story about our relationship. Kennith had to die because he is the reason she left me! Then my precious flower made all the roses beautiful with her silky blood. BUT you had to RUIN it just like her!” He screams and pulls his gun out shooting me in the leg and I point my pistol at him.
[[Chase after James]]
I close my eyes and grab the keys off the desk and ran out of the building. The Detective would just be in my way if I was to bring him with me. I drive to the pit as quickly as possible and stop right at the edge, I gear up and then begin to walk to Julia’s home. The pit is a massive crater in the middle of New New York. It was created during WWIII and now is home to a lot of the dangerous crowd. I’ll have to go on foot from here, it’s not safe to have the car down there. There isn’t anywhere safe for it to fly, sadly.
Compared to the bright neon lights in the city, the pit is dark and dull. I walk for thirty minutes until I stop at Julia's home. It’s a small shack like building that looks like it could fall over at any moment. I knock on the door and then Julia opens the door.
“H-Hello?” She says while peeking out from behind the door.

“Hello, I am Conrad. I was sent by the NYPD to protect you from The Rose Garden Killer.” I look down at her and she opens the door and hugs me. I can smell the Atraflexx on her so she is most likely high.
“It’s James isn’t it… he wants me dead.” She sobs as I walk her back to my car.
[[Take Julia to the Station]]I sit down at my desk and wait for the Detective to come back. Even if he is not my favorite, I don't want him to do something stupid.
"Let's go Robo-Cop, we've got a lady to save." He was fully geared up now and all I did was laugh at him.
"You're an idiot and I'm still driving." I grab the keys and walk past him, I go and gear up myself before we speed off down the superhighway.
I drive to the pit as quickly as possible and stop right at the edge, I put my gear on and begin to walk to Julia’s home in the pit. The pit is a massive crater in the middle of New New York. It was created during WWIII and now is home to a lot of the dangerous crowd. I’ll have to go on foot from here, it’s not safe to have the car down there. There isn’t anywhere safe for it to fly, sadly.
Compared to the bright neon lights in the city, the pit is dark and dull. We walk for thirty minutes until we stop at Julia's home.
When we walk up I motion for Owen to stay back just in case. It’s a small shack-like building that looks like it could fall over at any moment. I knock on the door and then Julia opens the door.
“H-Hello?” She says while peeking out from behind the door.

“Hello, I am Conrad. My partner and I were sent by the NYPD to protect you from The Rose Garden Killer.” I look down at her and she opens the door and hugs me. I can smell the Atraflexx on her so she is most likely high.
“It’s James, isn’t it… he wants me dead.” She sobs as we walk her back to the car.
[[Take Julia to the Station->take to station]]When I arrive at the station Owen is nowhere to be found so I leave Julia with Lieutenant Jordan.
“Julia, I promise everything will be okay, they're going to bring you some medicine. You’re safe now I promise.” I tell her while activating sympathy protocol #17. “Before I leave I need to ask if this man is James.” I hold up the sketch we got of James from Kennith and she bursts into tears.
“Oh god, it is him. It’s all my fault.” She collapses onto the floor dramatically while ranting on and on about leaving him. Luckily Jordan motions for me to leave. I thank him and go over to Amanda's office.
"You are to do anything to get that man here. Dead or Alive I don't care. Record everything, just in case." She sighs and then dismisses me. I head back down to the car, inserting the keycard and the car begins to hover. The siren turns on and the lights flash as I race through the City to Samsung Apartments.
[[James's Apartment]] At exactly seven forty two at night I arrived at James apartment complex. I got out of my car and started to gear up when I saw a familiar car. It’s Owens. I put my vest on and then run into the building. I get into the super elevelator and it beams me up to the 99th floor. The walls are a pastel blue and every door is black. I walk down the long hallway until I get to room 9910. The door had been hacked into by a police drone. With a deep breath I head inside the room with my gun held in front of me.
I was as quiet as a mouse as I checked room after room in James’s flat. The last room was the living room. James had a corner room so there was a big glass window overlooking most of New New York. It was a nice view, it made you wonder how someone like James could afford this place.
//“Drop the Gun, or he dies.”//
[[Chapter Five->5]]I look over at the figure standing in front of the window. It was James and he was holding a gun.
“You didn’t think you’d find me so easily now did you? Well, maybe I wanted it this way.” James cackles. “You should see the stupid look on your face.” He keeps laughing and steps closer while jamming the pistol into the side of Owen's head “You should see the stupid looks on your faces.” He keeps laughing and then snaps his head at me when I speak up
"sorry Con, I messed up." Owen slurrs, he was still intoxicated. I sigh and look at James
//“Why did you do all of this? Why ruin so many people’s lives?”//
"You wanna know why you machine? Julia broke my heart! The day before my wedding she called it off so she could go do what? Sell Atraflexx with her new friends from med school! What a load of crap! We were so happy together and then she just left me." He glares at me through the tears in his eyes.
"ssSo I snapped, I killed nine women one for each month we were together. Each girl told a cute little story about our relationship. Kennith had to die because he is the reason she left me! Then my precious flower would have made so many roses beautiful with her silky blood. BUT you had to RUIN it just like her!” He screams and puts his finger on the trigger and I know I only have a second to act.
[[Set your Gun down]]
[[Shoot at James]]When we arrive at the station Owen informs Amanda of the situation and that James is most likely our killer.
“Julia, I promise everything will be okay, they're going to bring you some medicine. You’re safe now I promise.” I tell her while activating sympathy protocol #17. “Before I leave I need to ask if this man is James.” I hold up the sketch we got of James from Kennith and she bursts into tears.
“Oh god, it is him. It’s all my fault.” She collapses onto the floor dramatically while ranting on and on about leaving him. Luckily Jordan motions for me to leave. I thank him and go over to Owen who is in Amanda's office.
"You two are to do anything to get that man here. Dead or Alive I don't care. And you," she points at me, "Record everything, just in case." She sighs and then dismisses us. We head back down to the car. I insert the keycard and the car begins to hover. The siren turns on and the lights flash as I race through the City to Samsung Apartments.
[[James's Apartment->JA2]] At exactly seven forty-two at night, we arrived at the apartment complex. We both got ready and then I started my recording.
“Let's go catch a Killer.” Owen grins and we hop into the super elevator as it beams us up to floor 99. We take our guns out and walk down the pastel blue hallway. The doors are black and with a simple scan, I can see they are all-electric so hacking them will be easy for me at least. We stop at the very end of the hall.
Room 9910.
I touch the door and it deactivates the security protocols as soon as I interface with it. I hold my gun up and then we both cautiously walk into the apartment. It reeks of death and I can tell Owen is having a hard time breathing. That's when his eyes go wide and he points at the massive glass window.
//“Welcome to my home Boys.” A sinister voice says.//
[[Chapter Five->Ch5 2]]I look over at the figure standing in front of the window. It was James and he was holding a gun.

“You didn’t think you’d find me so easily now did you? Well, maybe I wanted it this way.” James cackles and steps closer while waving the pistol around like a toy. “You should see the stupid looks on your faces.” He keeps laughing and then snaps his head at me when I speak up
//“Why did you do all of this? Why ruin so many people’s lives?”//
"You wanna know why you machine? Julia broke my heart! The day before my wedding she called it off so she could go do what? Sell Atraflexx with her new friends from med school! What a load of crap! We were so happy together and then she just left me." He glares at me through the tears in his eyes.

Then my precious flower would have made so many roses beautiful with her silky blood. BUT you had to RUIN it just like her!” He screams and shoots me, he hits me in the leg and I point my pistol at him. He aims at Owen and Owen aims back at him.
“Who is going to shoot back first, boys?”
[[Save Owen->good ending2]]
I closed my eyes and thought of a plan to save Julia. I smile and look at Mary.
“You’ll never get away with any of this, you idiot,” I say to her face and she looks at me and laughs. This is my chance, I pull my charged revolver out and aim it right at her head.

</div>
''“Goodbye Rat.”'' I pull the trigger and a loud bang rings out through the warehouse. Her blood splatters all over me and the wall behind her. Mary was unrecognizable, the revolver was not meant for close-range I though.t When suddenly James shot at me. He grazed my shoulder and then ran off deeper into the warehouse. I grabbed the electric shotgun out of Mary's grip.
“Get back here!” I yell at him as I chase after him, he had the high ground for now but I’ll get him soon enough. I had already sent word to Owen and everyone at the station and I got confirmation that they were on their way.
[[Chase James]]“James, you’ll never get away with this,” I announce loudly which catches his attention. For a split moment, brown eyes met blue and I smile as I raise my gun and aim it at him.
Unknown to the two idiots in the room I had been charging up my revolver. If charged long enough it will do a lot of damage.

“What?” Before he can say anything else the revolver shifts apart and then a loud bang rings out throughout the dusty warehouse echoing out into the pit. It blew out half of James’s face leaving almost nothing recognizable left. The man stumbled forward and fell over the balcony he was on, hitting the floor with a loud bang.
The last thing I can remember is hearing a helicopter above me and Mary screaming something at me, I couldn’t make it out before she fired the Shot Gun and blew a hole right through my torso. My Purple blood splattered all over the floor and Mary collapsed onto her knees, she knew it was all over.
[[Owen]]''Owen POV''
Much to my dismay, the stupid bot decided to go with Mary to the scene. However, when we showed up I didn’t expect to have to see his body as mangled as it was. He sacrificed himself to save a girl he doesn’t even know.
//In my books that makes him more human than most humans.//
I didn’t know what to think of the A.I. when he first showed his face but once he listened to me I realized that wasn’t what he wanted and he had feelings? I was hard on the boy and all he ever wanted was to accomplish his stupid objectives and follow the rules. I saw him as a machine. Until we started to work together more, he had a personality and he showed me that maybe I should try to loosen up a little and try to make some friends. He tried to be nice to everyone and he really liked cats.
Maybe in another life, he got to live, who knows. Right?
[[The End]]I ran after James, he had heavy feet so it wasn't hard to track him down. James stopped in the middle of a white Rose garden.
"Someone will paint these flowers, will it be you or me?" James Laughs and doubles over as he cackles. I step into the garden and I stare at him.
"Why James? Why kill so many women?" I'm almost begging him for an answer.
"You wanna know why you machine? Julia broke my heart! The day before my wedding she called it off so she could go do what? Sell Atraflexx with her new friends from med school! What a load of crap! We were so happy together and then she just left me." He glares at me through the tears in his eyes.

Then my precious flower would have made all those flowers beautiful. BUT you had to RUIN it just like her!” He screams and pulls his gun out shooting me in the leg and I point my pistol at him.
[[Let him Live]]
[[Kill him]]James was locked away after he confessed to it all. Detective Owen Stacy became Lieutenant Owen Stacy while I became the first real Robo-Cop as Owen would put it. Tesla said I could stay at precinct 12 as their designated A.I. system, whatever that means.
All I know is I’m free, Owen has been letting me stay in his extra bedroom as long as I give his cat Mittens plenty of attention. Everything is okay? The world is starting to get over from the effects of the war and New New York can finally sleep in peace. Their killer is gone.
[[The End]]I look at Owen and then I drop my gun. “Fine you win James,” I say submitting to James. Owen’s mouth hangs open as I walk over to James and stand next to him, “Shoot him, see if I care. I am nothing but a machine, it doesn't matter if he lives or dies. So shoot.” Owen’s face turns into a scowl.
''“You rat.”'' Owen snarls at me while James doubles over and laughs as loud as he can.
“This is tooooo good!! Your own partner switched sides because his small computer brain can’t comprehend when the adults are talking.” He keeps laughing and I can feel the air between us getting tense. I look at Owen and then close my eyes, uploading the files to the computers back at the station.
“You’d be wrong James.” I can feel my code being undone as I’m finally free. I take a deep breath and enjoy the few seconds I have left. “Sorry Owen. I’ll do better next time.” Those were the last words I ever spoke before I grabbed ahold of James and I threw both myself and James out the window. I close my eyes while the wind runs through my hair, all I could hear was James screaming and cursing before he passes out and we both hit the pavement.
[[Owen->Owen2]]I could hear James talking my ear off and I was fed up. It was all about how he needed to kill Julia because she broke his heart. Who even cares. I just want to get this over with.
"James, No one cares and no one ever will." I shout at him, throwing him out of his thoughts.

I aim my gun at him and shoot him right between the eyes. However, before he died he had just enough time to pull the trigger and I watch as Owen’s brains splatter all over the white couch next to him. The two men fall over with a loud thud and I close my eyes. I did my job and I contacted the precinct to let them know what happened. I walk down the hallway to see neighbors peeking their heads out from their doors. I get into the elevator and head back down. At ground floor is Amanda aswell as most of precint 12.
"Owen and the Rose Garden Killer have been killer." My objectives list clears and then a blue flashing alert catches my attention.
//Mission Accomplished//
''“Conrad: Model # 392 - 6798 - 3217 - 20 has been asked to return to Tesla Inc for further enhancements and testing. Does he understand?”''
[[Yes->The End]]''Owen POV''
I stood there in disbelief. My hands were shaking as I collapsed onto my knees and started to cry. Me a grown man, sobbing in some random apartment. I gave him so much trouble and he saved my life, I got mad at him for doing his job.
I'm such a fool. I can hear the sirens getting closer and closer to the building. Conrad or one of the neighbors must've alerted the police. I close my eyes and begin to laugh. Maybe this was what I needed to get my life back together. My head was spinning as the alcohol began to make me feel sick again. I take a deep breath and then walk out of the apartment and back down the blue hallway.
I don't think I like the color blue anymore. I chuckle as I walk past nosey neighbors and to the elevator. On the ground floor, the SWAT team is surrounding the elevators.
"Don't Worry, He's dead," I say while pushing through them. I look over to see Amanda and all I can do is nod my head at her as I walk out of the building.
[[The End]]When I see Owen stuck in that position I slowly set me gun down.
“There, see, my gun is down. No need to do anything crazy.” I say to James while I hold my hands up. “James will you tell me why you’re doing all of this maybe we can help-” I was about to finish my sentence when I get cut off.
“NO! No one can help me! Not until that witch Julia is dead!” He screams and then backs up only to stumble a little, he lets go of Owen just enough for Owen to be able to headbutt him with the back of his head. Owen winces and then grabs the gun from James.
“Bye Bye Psycho Rose Boy, dang it Stacy is that the best you could come up with.” Owen meant to mumble that last part to himself I think, but I heard him right before he empties the gun into James’s chest.
//Mission Accomplished flashed across my eyes and a new alert popped up.//
“Conrad: Model # 392 - 6798 - 3217 - 20 has been asked to return to Tesla Inc for further enhancements and testing. Does he understand?”
[[Yes->The End]]
[[No->nononononononon]]
As soon as I said no to my program small fireworks went off in my vision.
''//Conragulations Conrad Model # 392 - 6798 - 3217 - 20 you are the first to pass our Human test, you are free.//''
As soon as the alert went down my eyes went wide as I feel the feelings of freedome take over my circuits.
"I'm alive." I say allowed and all I get is a hug from Owen.
[[Epilogue->ep]]
After a couple of weeks of paperwork and some apologies later, the Detective and I got closer. He told me I can stay at his place for now as long as I play with his cat and don't ruin is the place. I agreed to those terms.
The case was closed and Julia was sent to a mental institute so she can get back on track with her life. The city of New New York awarded Owen with a medal for catching the killer. Although excited, Owen told me it's just as much mine as it is his.
For now, I don't know where my new life will take me. Tesla gave me to the precinct because I completed their tests. They wanted me to break away from their coding so I could be more human.
So far life has been pretty good, I have a cat to pet and a nice human in my life.
[[The End]]I ran after James, he had heavy feet so it wasn't hard to track him down. Owen followed close behind me as we ran through the old warehouse. We jumped over beams and slid under broken walls until we are left in a big open room full of white roses. James stood in the middle of the garden with his arms outstretched.
"Someone will paint these flowers, will it be you or me?" James Laughs and doubles over as he cackles. I step into the garden motioning for Owen to go around the back. I look directly at James and take a deep breath.
"James you don't have to die, we can help you!" I shout from across the room.
[[Buy Owen more time]]
[[Shoot James->ShoOt jameS]]I let out a sigh and I feel my programs letting me be free. I look at James and then shoot him in the hand. It earns a scream from the man but it gives me enough time to cuff him and then haul him onto his feet.
“I’m sorry James but you need to live with your consequences. You hurt many people and their loved ones.” I walk James out of the dark building when the rain begins to fall. I smile as the red and blue lights flash through the first rain New New York has seen in months.
[[Epilogue]]A low growl escapes my throat and I drop the pistol. I grab the fully charge shotgun off my back and aim it at James. His eyes go wide and he raises his gun to shoot me but before he even has the chance a loud bang echoes across the pit and even into the city before being drowned out by the bustling city above us. The roses were splattered in James’s blood and I drop the shotgun on top of the red roses.
Mission Accomplished flashed across my eyes and a new alert popped up.
“Conrad: Model # 392 - 6798 - 3217 - 20 has been asked to return to Tesla Inc for further enhancements and testing. Does he understand?”
[[Yes->The End]]"No one can help me now you stupid bot." He shouts at me while aiming his gun at my head. I look past him and see Owen up in the rafters. He nods his head at me and I look back at James.
"No, James we can help you... I can help you." I smile and hold my hand out to him, dropping my gun on the ground. "I can be your partner, I'll watch everything from the inside. I promise." I smile at him and he slowly puts his gun down taking two steps towards me.
"You promise?" He questions weakly.
"Promise." As soon as the words come out of my vocal modulator Owen snaps the last rope off the support beam and it falls from the ceiling, killing James underneath it.
"We did it," Owen says just loud enough for me to hear.
[[Epilogue->eP]] "No one can help me now you stupid bot." He shouts at me while aiming his gun at my head. I look past him and see Owen up in the rafters. He nods his head at me and I look back at James.
I knew James was about to shoot me and I just couldn't let that happen. So I shot first and grazed the mans ear. He begins to laugh again.
"You're supposed to be the BEST? and you cant even shoot little ol' me-" I shoot him again, this time I don't miss.

James stumbles back as his red blood splatters all over the white roses.
"Goodnight James." I smile and then look back up to Owen who gives me a thumbs up.
[[Epilogue->eP]] It had been a gruesome couple of weeks for us. Between the murders and me finally figuring out I'm not just a machine. I would say we accomplished a lot.
I wish we had saved Julia, however, it didn't happen and it haunted me at night. Owen, on the other hand, got promoted to Lietentut status and me? Well, now I'm a full-fledged detective. Owen and I are still partners and now I even live with him. I get to pet as many cats as I like now.
For me, that's all that matters

[[Press Here to Start]]Intro
It is January 1st 2100. To the public eye, it's a normal day. It’s just the first of the year, kids are playing with their newly found toys and the parents can’t wait for school to start up again. For the Freelance Detectives Mathias and Cindy today is a normal day too. Sure the Royal Crown and Jewels were stolen, and sure they also had to find them. But this was just another normal day for Matihas and Cindy.
[[Chapter One]]''Chapter One''
//“Good Morning Cindy”// A soft female voice says as I come out of sleep mode.
//“Today is January 1st, 2100
It is currently snowing outside with no signs of stopping.
Mathias is in the Kitchen from what I can tell he is making waffles with coffee.
I hope your day is wonderful Cindy.”//
It’s a simple message but it helps me start my day on a positive note. I sit up and stretch my fake muscle out as my eyes start to adjust to the light being let in from behind my white drapes. I swing my legs over the bed and shiver as the cold air is exposed to my skin. I stand up after a couple minutes of arguing with myself on whether I should just go back to sleep. However, the smell of waffles entered my room and my stomach rumbled at the thought. So with waffles in mind. I put on a dark grey sweater and some nice black dress pants as well as some fluffy socks Mathias had gotten me for Christmas. I smile at the small gesture before heading out into the small kitchen.
“Ah! Goodmorning Cindy! I made Waffles and Coffee… I think… You know how bad I am at cooking. But this is my treat to you!” A loud british accent floods into the room. Mathias smiles as he turns around to look at me. His curly hair was a mess as always, and he had a turtleneck on that was now covered in what I think is waffle mix?

Double-click this passage to edit it.“Good Morning to you too.” I sit down at the table and cross my legs. “You’ve made quite the mess of yourself.” I smile back at Mathias and looks down to see the white powder all over his turtleneck. He begins to laugh as he sets a cup of coffee down next to me.
“I guess I have haven't I. Oh well, I’ll clean that a bit later.” He hums to himself as he finishes up the last of the waffles. Usually he isn’t the one who cooks. Mainly because the poor sod can’t make anything to save his life. Don’t know how he’s managed to live this long. I smile into the cup of coffee as I take a sip.

“Not bad eh?” He turns around to look at me, a big plate of waffles in hand.
“It’s tolerable you idiot, also, do expect me to be able to eat all those?” I gesture towards the large stack of waffles.
“Naw, I was thinkin we just only eat waffles for the next couple days.” He says in the most serious tone while setting the plate down on the kitchen table. We look at each other and then burst out laughing.
“You are definitely a fool Mathias Evergreen.”
“Well so are you Cindy… model number 92 - 9021 - 5439 - 20” He laughs to himself and begins plating the waffles. I smile, thinking about the old days when I was nothing but a machine.

I walk over to him and take one of the Coffee cups off the counter.
“Goodmorning to you to and even if it's gross I appreciate your hard work.” I laugh a bit and take a sip of the coffee he made. “Good Job! It’s tolerable this time.” I snicker into the cup as I take another sip of the coffee. I don’t have to drink or eat to survive. However I find it fascinating to look at all the chemical compounds of things. It keeps my hyperactive mind busy so I don’t ever get bored.

“At least it’s not burnt like last time.” He pouts and crosses his arms like he’s three. We both looked at each other and burst out laughing.
“You’re a fool Mathias.” I chuckle and the sit down. Mathias sets the waffles down on the table and joins me.
“I didn’t burn these either, I followed your recipe exactly. So if it’s gross its your fault.” Mathias puts waffles on his plate and then some on mine.
[[Eat Waffles]]
I took the strawberry Jam out since the chemical compounds in this are just wonderful and I spread it onto my waffles. I glance over to Mathias who now has a whipped cream with a side of waffles and sprinkles on his plate. I shake my head and take a bite of my waffle.
//2 eggs
250g plain flour
415ml milk
120ml vegetable oil
1 tablespoon sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract//
I smile and look at the man as he stuffs his face. “Well they must be good by the way you’re eating them.” I say and he just shrugs.

“They're pretty good. You always make them better though.” I grin as I enjoy my waffle. He glances over at the paper and lets out a sigh. “You know if we lived in America, the whole Rose Garden Killer thing would’ve been solved by the first murder if it were us ya know?” He takes another bite of his whipped cream mess.
“Oh really now?” I pick up the paper and look at it. “It looks like Tesla made another model that they're gonna send in. Probably something fancy that’ll get it solved so they don’t need us.” I set the paper down and take another bite.
“Ya but who even care, you’re the only good model, only one that hasn’t blown up or nothin.” I chuckle and shake my head.
“Thanks-” I was cut off by a knock at the door, looking at my partner and his whipped cream beard I decided I should answer the door. “I’ve got it, you sit tight Santa.” He gives me a look and I head to the door.
[[Open The Door]]When I open the door I see Mrs. Nessbitt, our landlady, she’s accompanied by two… Royal Guards?
“Uh… hello?” I look at her and she smiles. Mrs. Nessbit is an elderly women, lots of wrinkles and more old fashioned that most of Europe, and that's saying a lot.
“Oh Cindy, dear, these men say they are from the Queen’s Castle... Want to speak with Mathias.” Her frail voice says to me as I look back over at the man child, then look at the two big men.

“Come on in… Officers?” I step aside and they walk inside.
“I’m Jorge and this right here is Steven, no need to be so formal with us m’lady.” His accent is thick and sounds scottish. He bows his head to me. They are both tall and are adorned with the modern age guard armor. Most of Europe has an old victorian style, but with modern day enhancements. Myself being an example. Most of America say's we are too old fashioned.
“Oi. Who's there?” Mathias walks over to us with a whipped cream mustache and he looks at the two men. “Ah, men of royalty. It’s not my birthday so why are you here.” Mathias smiles and looks at the men before Steven speaks up,
“Sir with all do respect, the royal crown and jewels have been stolen. We were told that you would be the best for the job.” Ah, this one’s american. His accent sticks out like a sore thumb.
“A case!” Mathias perks up and you can see his eyes light up. “And an Interesting one at that! Cindy!”
“Yeah?” I look at him.
“Get ready we are gonna solve this new mystery.” He wipes his mustache off and smiles.
“Isn’t that what we always do?”
I watch him deflate and he looks at me. “Awwww come on, I was trying to be funny like the cartoons.” He rolls his eyes.
“I best get changed, you too Cindy. It’s cold out there.” He runs down the hall and slams his door, leaving me alone with two shell-shocked guards.
“He should only be a moment” I smile and motion to the waffles.
“Waffle?”
[[Chapter Two]]''Chapter Two
January 1st, 2100
Location: Royal Limousine''
Mathias and I now find ourselves in the back of a limousine. Mathias is acting like a small child as usual. Thank the lord it is just the two of us in here right now or else no one would ever take us seriously. I adjust my winter coat and straighten up my posture.
“You’re always so uptight, just relax,” Mathias says with extra emphasis. He has his usual smug grin plastered across his face. All I can do is roll my eyes at him.
“It wouldn’t kill you to show some class, child.” I return the smug look while I mock him.
“Oh and you know allll about class, now dontcha?” He leans forward a bit only to have the driver slams on the breaks causing mathias to fall face first into the carpet. I burst out laughing as the man groans.
“Karma!” I say through my own laughter.
“Shut up you hunk of metal-” The door clicks open and a man in a suit stares at the scene in front of him. I am sitting nicely in my seat and my human companion is on the floor, his hair is a mess, and I think he has whipped cream in his hair still. I sigh and give the man a smile as I step over Mathias.
“So sorry for my partner. He uh… hit his head this morning.” I whisper to the man and he laughs a little while Mathias struggles to get out of the car.
“Well I certainly hope Mr. Evergarden is still capable of solving this case or else we will have to give it to the professionals.” The man says and Mathias’s eyes go as wide as our breakfast plates.
“No No No No No NO! I am fully capable of handling this case!” He puffs his chest out to appear bigger than he really is, which only causes the man in the suit to chuckle.
“Don’t worry Lad, I know you’re the perfect man for the job. No come along. You two have some investigating to do.
[[The Crime Scene]]
We follow the man in the suit who we found out is named Arthur. He leads us through the royal castle and down the hall. There are several armed guards who look like they’re ready to pounce on anything that moves.

“Right on in here is where it happened, feel free to touch or look at anything you’d like, just please wear gloves if you do.” Arthur says before motioning to the heavy double doors.
Mathias and I looked at each other and then push open the double doors into the room where it all went down.
I close my eyes and then reopen them so my scanners are online.
The room is large, there is valuable things all over the place. Old paintings, more jewelry, armor, tapestries, and more. In the center of the room is an empty glass case with a hole cut into the glass. There is another case by the far wall that has a similar hole cut into it. I continue to scan the room. Looking for anything that could lead us into something further.
[[Look at the ceiling tiles]]
[[Look at the paintings on the wall]]
[[Investigate the Windows]]
[[Examine the glass case]]The ceiling tiles in this room have a beautiful pattern on them. Its black and white and it repeats over and over. It’s almost soothing. I know I should be investigating but the tiles are so wonder…
Hold on. What the heck is that. I look at the tiles above the glass case and notice that the pattern…
“THEY DISTURBED THE PEACE!” I didn’t mean to shout, but sometimes even a robots emotions can get the best of her.
“Cindy? What’s up?” Mathias says while walking over to me cautiously.
“I need a ladder. The tiles have been moved. Whoever did this job was quite sloppy.” I roll my eyes and cross my arms while I calm down. I was acting like a spoiled brat but this was just unacceptable
“Alright CC, I’ll get the ladder.” Mathias pats my back in an attempt to as he would say “cool my jets.” Sometimes human phrases are just so stupid. I laugh to myself while I wait for the ladder.
“Here you are madam.” I hear Arthur’s voice behind me. He wheeled in an old ladder and had already set it up for me. How Sweet.
“Thank you Arthur.” I climb up the ladder and remove one of the tiles, for a human these would be heavy but I am not human. I set the tile to the side and turn night vision mode on. I poke my head up into the roof and look around scanning the place. I get on the tips of my toes when my scanners pick something up in the corner of the room. I put the tile back properly and then wheel the ladder over to the corner of the room. I look at the tile closely and it too has been misplaced. I smile triumphantly and climb up the ladder again. As soon as I remove the tile a bag falls down from the ceiling with a loud thud.
“I KNEW IT!” I exclaim while sliding down the ladder. I pick up the black bag and open it. Climbing gear and… oh my… it's a glass saw, but these are only made in America. Europe is too high class for this kind of treachery. I look at Mathias and shake my head before setting the bag down. Mathias and I can go through it all when we are both done investigating.
[[Examine the glass case->glass04.1]]
[[Investigate the Windows->windows04.2]]
[[Look at the paintings on the wall->paint04.3]] Some of the royal jewels were also stolen last night. The case is over in the corner opposite that of the windows. I head over there while mathias looks around for anything else my scans may have missed.
The first thing I notice is the perfect circle cut into the glass of the case. Just like the crown’s case. It appears to be the same type of glass most of these cases are made out of. Which makes them unique as the glass itself has a beautiful pattern within it. I’ll be able to detect it from the second I can get a look at the grooves. I was ready to be done with this area when I noticed the painting has a tilt on it.
Which is a bit odd for such a high class room.
“Arthur?” I say loud enough for him to hear me. “Can I take this painting down?” I question.
“Oh um, of course madam.” He nods his head at me and I reached up and carefully remove the painting. Mathias has now joined my side and we both gasp.

“It says, our game begins.” I say softly while running my fingers along the marks. These were made by someone who knows how to use a knife. The marks are beautiful.
[[Investigate the Windows->windows03.1]]
[[Look at the ceiling tiles->tiles03.2]]
[[Examine the glass case->glass03.3]] I head over to the windows and scan them. All of them seem to be okay. However the one closest to the door seems to have a flaw. I walk over to the suspicious window and scan it.
I catch a couple different things, a handprint on the outside of the glass. We happen to be on the third floor of the castle. Could this be how they got in?
The window is also unlocked which could mean this could be an inside job. One of the staff members could be in on this. They climbed in through the window because someone inside left the window unlocked? Or was this their escape root. I would have to check the garden to see if this is true.
I turn away to continue my investigation when something catches my eye. It looks like, mud. I stop in my tracks and turn ninety degrees to my right.
It's a footprint.
Size 44 special ops combat boots. No one in europe wears these combat boots. Meaning this person could be from out of the country which severely limits our time frame to catch them.
[[Examine the glass case->GlassCase02.1]]
[[Look at the paintings on the wall->Paintings02.2]]
[[Look at the ceiling tiles->Tiles02.3]] The case in the middle of the room is where the queen’s crown usually sits. Instead now I am face to face with an empty case that has a perfect circle cut into it. Usually we wouldn’t see such a clean cut into the glass like this so our thief must want to be noticed for their abilities or the arsenal of tools that they have access too.

From the cut alone it could be multiple different tools my thoughts are a laser. I wipe my fingers around the glass, looking for any prints. There isn’t much to go off from just the case. The thief did a good job and from what I’ve been told the security footage is blacked out so we can’t see anything.
Wait
Where is the glass cut out. You can’t shatter this glass and it was specifically made for this case. So where is it…

The window is also unlocked which could mean this could be an inside job. One of the staff members could be in on this. They climbed in through the window because someone inside left the window unlocked? Or was this their escape root. I would have to check the garden to see if this is true.
I turn away to continue my investigation when something catches my eye. It looks like, mud. I stop in my tracks and turn ninety degrees to my right.
It's a footprint.
Size 44 special ops combat boots. No one in europe wears these combat boots. Meaning this person could be from out of the country which severely limits our time frame to catch them.
[[Look at the ceiling tiles->Tiles3.3]] The ceiling tiles in this room have a beautiful pattern on them. Its black and white and it repeats over and over. It’s almost soothing. I know I should be investigating but the tiles are so wonder…
Hold on. What the heck is that. I look at the tiles above the glass case and notice that the pattern…
“THEY DISTURBED THE PEACE!” I didn’t mean to shout, but sometimes even a robots emotions can get the best of her.
“Cindy? What’s up?” Mathias says while walking over to me cautiously.
“I need a ladder. The tiles have been moved. Whoever did this job was quite sloppy.” I roll my eyes and cross my arms while I calm down. I was acting like a spoiled brat but this was just unacceptable
“Alright CC, I’ll get the ladder.” Mathias pats my back in an attempt to as he would say “cool my jets.” Sometimes human phrases are just so stupid. I laugh to myself while I wait for the ladder.
“Here you are madam.” I hear Arthur’s voice behind me. He wheeled in an old ladder and had already set it up for me. How Sweet.
“Thank you Arthur.” I climb up the ladder and remove one of the tiles, for a human these would be heavy but I am not human. I set the tile to the side and turn night vision mode on. I poke my head up into the roof and look around scanning the place. I get on the tips of my toes when my scanners pick something up in the corner of the room. I put the tile back properly and then wheel the ladder over to the corner of the room. I look at the tile closely and it too has been misplaced. I smile triumphantly and climb up the ladder again. As soon as I remove the tile a bag falls down from the ceiling with a loud thud.
“I KNEW IT!” I exclaim while sliding down the ladder. I pick up the black bag and open it. Climbing gear and… oh my… it's a glass saw, but these are only made in America. Europe is too high class for this kind of treachery. I look at Mathias and shake my head before setting the bag down. Mathias and I can go through it all when we are both done investigating.
[[Investigate the Windows->Windows3.3]] The ceiling tiles in this room have a beautiful pattern on them. Its black and white and it repeats over and over. It’s almost soothing. I know I should be investigating but the tiles are so wonder…
Hold on. What the heck is that. I look at the tiles above the glass case and notice that the pattern…

Size 44 special ops combat boots. No one in europe wears these combat boots. Meaning this person could be from out of the country which severely limits our time frame to catch them.
[[Speak With Mathias]]“Hey Matt, you done?” I look over to him and grab the duffel bag I found up in the tiles. It would’ve been smart to have left it up there if there wasn’t a robot with OCD here.
“Yeah, I think so. Is there anywhere else you need to check before we go over this junk?” He says as we meet back up.
“I want to go and take a look at the garden. I found a really faint footprint, and get this… it’s a combat boot!” I exclaim, it was exciting for me atleast. No one would dare wear those in europe, so it helps us build a profile for our thief.
“Really? What an idiot! Honestly, I was so proud of this thief and then as I started to search I find out they are a total IDIOT!” I’m glad I’m not the only one upset.
“Excuse me, Arthur? Would you mind escorting us down to the garden please?” I smile at the old man and he nods his head.
“Of course my dear. I am having a room set up so you two can go over the evidence you’ve found so far. I thought it would be helpful.” Arthur says while he shuffles slowly down the hall with us in tow.
“Thank you Sir, we really appreciate it.” Mathias speaks up and smiles at the old man.
“No need to thank me youngster, I just want to see those jewels put back in place. I wish I could’ve been here to help save them from getting stolen. Not that I coulda put up much of a fight.” The old man chuckles and then pushes open a large set of double doors which lets in the cold winter air.
I can see Arthur shiver a bit so I shrug off my coat and place it on the old man's shoulders.
“You really should get yourself a coat Mr. Arthur.” I say and all he does is chuckle.
“You are most certainly right young lady, but I don’t want you getting cold, so please do take it back.” He reaches to take the coat off and i hold my hands up.
“I am a robot sir, I don’t need a coat to keep warm.” I give him a warm smile. “Now let's catch us a thief.” I smile as we walk over the gardens. I look up at the windows and find the one that I was suspicious about.
I scan the area and pick up only one disturbance. I give Mathias a glance and slowly head over to the area. I walk lightly as to not disturb the crime scene.
“There’s somethin heret.” I get closer and knelt down next to the print in the dirt. Bingo. It's a match for the footprint I saw upstairs. I look up at the window and with another scan I can see small scratches that run along the wall.
“This is how they got in. Someone inside the castle left that window unlocked. Athur?” I look over to Arthur and smile.
“Can you get me a list of everyone that worked or cam in the castle over the past two days please?” He nods his head and makes his way back inside.
“How ‘bout we go over this stuff now Cindy.” Mathias smiles and the two of us head inside.
[[Go Over Evidence]]The case in the middle of the room is where the queen’s crown usually sits. Instead now I am face to face with an empty case that has a perfect circle cut into it. Usually we wouldn’t see such a clean cut into the glass like this so our thief must want to be noticed for their abilities or the arsenal of tools that they have access too.

From the cut alone it could be multiple different tools my thoughts are a laser. I wipe my fingers around the glass, looking for any prints. There isn’t much to go off from just the case. The thief did a good job and from what I’ve been told the security footage is blacked out so we can’t see anything.
Wait
Where is the glass cut out. You can’t shatter this glass and it was specifically made for this case. So where is it…
[[Look at the paintings on the wall->Paint02.12]]
[[Look at the ceiling tiles->Tiles02.12]] Some of the royal jewels were also stolen last night. The case is over in the corner opposite that of the windows. I head over there while mathias looks around for anything else my scans may have missed.
The first thing I notice is the perfect circle cut into the glass of the case. Just like the crown’s case. It appears to be the same type of glass most of these cases are made out of. Which makes them unique as the glass itself has a beautiful pattern within it. I’ll be able to detect it from the second I can get a look at the grooves. I was ready to be done with this area when I noticed the painting has a tilt on it.
Which is a bit odd for such a high class room.
“Arthur?” I say loud enough for him to hear me. “Can I take this painting down?” I question.
“Oh um, of course madam.” He nods his head at me and I reached up and carefully remove the painting. Mathias has now joined my side and we both gasp.

[[Examine the glass case->glass3.12]] The ceiling tiles in this room have a beautiful pattern on them. Its black and white and it repeats over and over. It’s almost soothing. I know I should be investigating but the tiles are so wonder…
Hold on. What the heck is that. I look at the tiles above the glass case and notice that the pattern…
“THEY DISTURBED THE PEACE!” I didn’t mean to shout, but sometimes even a robots emotions can get the best of her.
“Cindy? What’s up?” Mathias says while walking over to me cautiously.
“I need a ladder. The tiles have been moved. Whoever did this job was quite sloppy.” I roll my eyes and cross my arms while I calm down. I was acting like a spoiled brat but this was just unacceptable
“Alright CC, I’ll get the ladder.” Mathias pats my back in an attempt to as he would say “cool my jets.” Sometimes human phrases are just so stupid. I laugh to myself while I wait for the ladder.
“Here you are madam.” I hear Arthur’s voice behind me. He wheeled in an old ladder and had already set it up for me. How Sweet.
“Thank you Arthur.” I climb up the ladder and remove one of the tiles, for a human these would be heavy but I am not human. I set the tile to the side and turn night vision mode on. I poke my head up into the roof and look around scanning the place. I get on the tips of my toes when my scanners pick something up in the corner of the room. I put the tile back properly and then wheel the ladder over to the corner of the room. I look at the tile closely and it too has been misplaced. I smile triumphantly and climb up the ladder again. As soon as I remove the tile a bag falls down from the ceiling with a loud thud.
“I KNEW IT!” I exclaim while sliding down the ladder. I pick up the black bag and open it. Climbing gear and… oh my… it's a glass saw, but these are only made in America. Europe is too high class for this kind of treachery. I look at Mathias and shake my head before setting the bag down. Mathias and I can go through it all when we are both done investigating.
[[Investigate the Windows->windows3.23]]
[[Examine the glass case->glass 3.33]]The case in the middle of the room is where the queen’s crown usually sits. Instead now I am face to face with an empty case that has a perfect circle cut into it. Usually we wouldn’t see such a clean cut into the glass like this so our thief must want to be noticed for their abilities or the arsenal of tools that they have access too.

From the cut alone it could be multiple different tools my thoughts are a laser. I wipe my fingers around the glass, looking for any prints. There isn’t much to go off from just the case. The thief did a good job and from what I’ve been told the security footage is blacked out so we can’t see anything.
Wait
Where is the glass cut out. You can’t shatter this glass and it was specifically made for this case. So where is it…

[[Speak With Mathias]]I head over to the windows and scan them. All of them seem to be okay. However the one closest to the door seems to have a flaw. I walk over to the suspicious window and scan it.
I catch a couple different things, a handprint on the outside of the glass. We happen to be on the third floor of the castle. Could this be how they got in?
The window is also unlocked which could mean this could be an inside job. One of the staff members could be in on this. They climbed in through the window because someone inside left the window unlocked? Or was this their escape root. I would have to check the garden to see if this is true.
I turn away to continue my investigation when something catches my eye. It looks like, mud. I stop in my tracks and turn ninety degrees to my right.
It's a footprint.

[[Look at the paintings on the wall->paint4.3]]
[[Examine the glass case->glass4.3]] Some of the royal jewels were also stolen last night. The case is over in the corner opposite of the suspicious window. I head over there while mathias looks around for anything else my scans may have missed.
The first thing I notice is the perfect circle cut into the glass of the case. Just like the crown’s case and I'm assuming using the glass saw I found.
It appears to be the same type of glass most of these cases are made out of. Which makes them unique as the glass itself has a beautiful pattern within it. I’ll be able to detect it from the second I can get a look at the grooves on the inside. I was ready to be done with this area when I noticed the painting has a tilt on it.
Which is a bit odd for such a high class room.
“Arthur?” I say loud enough for him to hear me. “Can I take this painting down?” I question.
“Oh um, of course madam.” He nods his head at me and I reached up and carefully remove the painting. Mathias has now joined my side and we both gasp.

The first thing I notice is the perfect circle cut into the glass of the case. Just like the crown’s case and I'm assuming using the glass saw I found.
It appears to be the same type of glass most of these cases are made out of. Which makes them unique as the glass itself has a beautiful pattern within it. I’ll be able to detect it from the second I can get a look at the grooves on the inside. I was ready to be done with this area when I noticed the painting has a tilt on it.
Which is a bit odd for such a high class room.
“Arthur?” I say loud enough for him to hear me. “Can I take this painting down?” I question.
“Oh um, of course madam.” He nods his head at me and I reached up and carefully remove the painting. Mathias has now joined my side and we both gasp.

“It says, our game begins.” I say softly while running my fingers along the marks. These were made by someone who knows how to use a knife. The marks are beautiful.
[[Investigate the Windows->windows45]] I head over to the windows and scan them. All of them seem to be okay. However the one closest to the door seems to have a flaw. I walk over to the suspicious window and scan it.
I catch a couple different things, a handprint on the outside of the glass. We happen to be on the third floor of the castle. Could this be how they got in?
The window is also unlocked which could mean this could be an inside job. One of the staff members could be in on this. They climbed in through the window because someone inside left the window unlocked? Or was this their escape root. I would have to check the garden to see if this is true.
I turn away to continue my investigation when something catches my eye. It looks like, mud. I stop in my tracks and turn ninety degrees to my right.
It's a footprint.
Size 44 special ops combat boots. No one in europe wears these combat boots. Meaning this person could be from out of the country which severely limits our time frame to catch them.

“It says, our game begins.” I say softly while running my fingers along the marks. These were made by someone who knows how to use a knife. The marks are beautiful.
I think it's time for us to talk about what we found.
[[Speak With Mathias]]Mathias and I head into the room Arthur had prepared for us. It’s a small room with a white board, cork board, and some string. I smile and set the black bag down onto the table.
“Here’s what I got so far:
There is more than one person in on this operation. Since the window had to have been unlocked with a keycard that only someone on staff has access to. The thief got in through the window from the gardens. There was some small scratches that my scanners picked up along the bricks. There is also the matter of the size 44 combat boots. The print in the garden matches the one I found in the Crown room. Did you find any other way they could’ve gotten in from?” I started off our investigation and then left it open for Mathias.
“I think you’re right. When we walked into the castle there was a maid who looked at me and then quickly scurried off. I think she might know something, why else would she have ran off. It would certainly support that idea. I looked at the window as well and noticed a glove print on it. Which I am sure you saw too. From the print I saw it doesn’t look like something made in europe. Which goes along with the American Glass saw.” Mathias responds and I think for a moment.
“How could they have used the saw? Aren’t those things loud?” I stand up and open the duffel bag. There was a bunch of junk in here but for now the saw was the most important. I take it out and look over it. It had a sleek black design and I will have to assume this red button is the on button. I push the brightly colored button and the saw turns on, making a horribly loud noise which causes two guards to open the doors. I smile and then turn it back off.
“There is no way the thief used this. It's far too loud.” I chuckle and set the saw down. “I knew those marks were too smooth, they used a laser Mathias. This is just meant to lead us away.”
“Cindy… you pressed the wrong button.” Mathias stares at me and picks up the saw. He pressed the green button next to it and the blade starts to spin. “I know this model. It’s the only one that's quiet. It was made by the COA or the Criminals of America. We could be looking at an American thief. The only problem is the Russian.” Mathias states and I plopped back down on the couch a bit defeated.
“You think the COA did this? It could give motive. Maybe they want something in return for the Crown and Jewels?” Mathias shakes his head and crosses his arms as he thinks. The guards left the room and returned to their posts when Mathias perks up.
“It could be a power play. They want to show the world they can do whatever they want. Especially since the war only ended some thirty years ago now. This could cause Europe to go into chaos again. Maybe that’s what they want. So far this has been kept quiet, what if they want to tell the world about what they did.” I lean back into the couch and think.
“That makes sense. The russian said “OUR GAME BEGINS” which is a little strange and it was signed A. Could that mean Americans or America? We have so much but so little at the same time.” I sigh and look at Mathias.
“Let's look through the bag and hopefully when we are done we will have a list of names, and I can ask for the maid to be brought here.”
[[Check The Duffel Bag]]I slide the bag between the two of use and open it completely. In the main compartment there was the saw as well as some large sized clothing, climbing tools, as well as some magazines. The most interesting thing in the bag would have to be the saw, so far.
I opened up a side compartment and I was hit with a passport.
“What? Why would they leave this here?” I look at Mathias and open the digital passport.
Martin Aberdene.
Age: 35
Birthdate: September 5, 2065
Nationality: United States Of America
State: New New York
Passport # 4158842346
“He’s an american Matt… I’ll look him up.” I open up my data base which is thankfully still set up to the detective database. I Insert his name.
“Martin Aberdene, parents are deceased, he has a brother named James who has a Criminal record. However Martin seems to be clean. He works for Microsoft and came to the UK for a meeting. You think James and Him are in on this?” I look to Mathias who has a concerned look on his face.
“I’m worried that the Criminals Of America might have just stolen the crown.”
“What?” Arthur says from behind us. “You don’t think that’s who's behind this do you?” I can see Arthur shaking so I stand up and lead him over to the couch.
“There is a possibility that, well… they might have done this. The evidence suggests so.” Mathias sighs and looks out the window.
“I will have to inform the Royal Guards at once, as well as put the Royal Family in a protection facility. This could start another war.” Arthur says, his old voice cracking as he tries to hold himself together. I activate an old protocol and hug him tightly.
“There won’t be another war Arthur. I promise. Did you bring the list?” I say in a much softer tone than usual.
“Yes Madam-” he responds.
“Cindy… call me Cindy” I smile at the old man and I can tell he has calmed down. I take the piece of paper from him and look over it.
“Hey Arthur, can you bring me the small blonde maid. She had a blue maids gown on.” Mathias looks at Arthur. “She was acting funny and I want to ask her some questions.”
“Certainly Sir, I will go and find young Elizabeth.” Arthur stands up slowly and heads back out the door.
[[The Girl]]I looked up everyone on the list and I didn’t see anything suspicious going on with anyone of them. However the name Elizabeth is not on this list at all.
“He mentioned Elizabeth but her name isn’t on this list at all, plus the rest of these people are clean. I checked to see what they were doing last night and it looks like they all have alibis. Except for Arthur... so we will need to ask him some questions too.” I sigh and look at Mathias. This was supposed to be fun but I can tell Mathias is worried. If it is the COA this could cause another world war.
Arthur walks in the room which breaks me from my thoughts. This time a girl accompanies him. She has long blonde hair and light blue eyes, Arthur leads her to the couch and she sits down next to me.

“Hello, Elizabeth is it?” Mathias asks the girl.
“Y-yes Sir.” She stutters out.
“Good, I am Mathias and that there is Cindy. Sorry to have to meet you under these circumstances. I would like to know where you were last night.” Mathias smiles and he sounds like he’s talking to a baby.
“I was working Sir.” She mumbles and looks at the floor. She is fidgeting with her hands and she seems uncomfortable. Which is not a good sign.
“Well, the list we got from Arthur suggests otherwise. Your name isn’t on the list. Meaning you never punched in. So please tell me where you were.” Mathias scoots to the edge of his seat and looks at the girl. She sniffles and that's when the water works begin. Mathias looks at me and then nods his head.
[[Confront Elizabeth]] I sigh and look down at the girl. I take a moment to think and decide that if this could start another war. I need to be brutal. I go through my coding and find my old interrogation protocol and I boot it up. My eyes revert back to their purple hue and I look at her.
“Listen, you have to tell us what happened or another war is going to start. Do you want that?” I get close to her and she looks at me. To most she would look scared, sad even, but after hundreds of cases you start to see when people are lying to you.
“He made me do it…” She mumbles and looks down. “Or else my family would have died.” She says with a shaky voice. I look at Mathias and he shakes his head.
“Miss Elizabeth. You told me your family died two years ago.” Arthur says. There it is. Her mistake. I can see her tense up and she looks at me and then Mathias.
“Okay… I’ll tell you. I snuck into the Castle last night and unlocked the window. The man told me if I didn’t do it he was going to hurt me and my boyfriend. Jakey just got himself outta his gang so I had to save him.” She clenches her fists and looks away. Mathias nods and looks at the girl.
“Did he look like this?” Mathias holds a picture of Matin up and her eyes go wide.
“YES, That's the man. He had a heavy russian accent and he was really tall.” The girl looks to Arthur and he pats her back.
“Elizabeth, you should’ve told someone last night. They could’ve stopped him.” Arthur sighs and shakes his head.
“It’s okay Arthur, Cindy and I are going to stop him.” Mathias picks up the bag and the papers. “We will be back tomorrow. Keep Elizabeth here, get her boyfriend too. Then we can keep them both safe. Come along Cindy.” Mathias was talking fast and gathering things quickly. That means something is up. I say my goodbyes and follow him outside and to the limo. Once in side he says a string of curses.
“She’s lying. Martin isn’t Russian. He is american, he has a brother right? Look him up or something. Martin can’t be russian. So that little blonde ugh- she is lying and I know it.” Mathias looks out the window and shakes his head.
“We need to find Martin then. We can’t accuse some random girl without knowing where he is. I’ll send this information to the station and we can pick it up in the morning.” The ride home isn’t as joyful as the ride to the castle this morning. Neither of us knew this was going to be so serious.
This could mean. World War Four is on its way.
[[Chapter Three->Chapter 3 cindy]]
''Chapter Three
January 2nd, 2100
Location: The apartment''
The next morning I get out of bed and head into the living room. Mathias hasn’t moved and has evidence strung around the apartment. I sigh and lean against the doorframe to the kitchen.

“Did you get any sleep? At all?” I question, sounding a bit more disappointed than I meant to.
“No Cindy. You weren’t around when the war started. It was… It was bad. If I… If we can stop this we have to catch whoever did this before it goes public.” Mathias shakes his head and pinches the bridge of his nose. If I had known this meant so much to him I wouldn’t have gone into sleep mode last night. I still need to work on my communication skills, I guess.
“Mathias, I see now, how important this is to not only you but all of humanity. Go and eat some food and get some coffee. I will look over what you have and when you’ve rested we can work on this. Together.” I smile and walk over to the tired man. I pat his shoulder and then push him into the kitchen.
“Thank you Cindy.” He smiles and heads into the kitchen. Good I need my partner back. Not the mop I've been dealing with.
[[Review Evidence]]With Mathias finally getting a break I decided to look over what we have so far.
We are trying to find out who stole the royal Crown and Jewels.
So far we suspect that the theif is
[[Elizabeth the maid at the castle]]
[[Martin the American]] Elizabeth is the maid we talked to last night. She was definitely a suspicious character. Her story kept changing when it came to Martin. She even said he had a russian accent which is hard to believe since his family tree has nothing to do with russia at all. It dates back pretty far too. The only problem is it’s hard to tie the small girl to the crime scene. The only thing I could think of is that her boyfriend, Jakey is up to no good. He did just get out of some gang buisness. Which is also hard to belive. This is Europe afterall. The most civilized place in the world.
Mathias has some ideas too. He was so mad last night when it came to Elizabeth.
Mathias first spotted her when we entered the castle. She freaked out and ran away from where we were. I didn’t notice this until I reviewed my own footage and saw this did indeed happen
The next thing that is concerning is the russian. Behind a painting in the crown room was //“our game begins”// in russian. It is definitely strange but what’s even more weird is when Elizabeth said that Martin has a Russian accent. Which he does not. It just doesn’t add up.
What worries me is what if this is the work of the COA. Then well, we will have a much bigger problem than we initally thought.
Also I looked up this Elizabeth and it’s not her name. I had to use facial recognition to find her. Her name is Alissa Moore. She lives in… in the bad part of europe. Which doesn’t look to good for her case.
Without Mathias pointing this out to me I might’ve looked the other way when it came to her. She just seemed so frail. I’m glad we are looking into her a bit more. This doesn’t mean Martin is off the hook just yet but until we find him we can’t go pointing any fingers... yet.
[[Find Mathias]]We found Martin’s passport inside a duffel bag that was left up in the tiles above the Crown Room.
Inside the bag was several large clothing items which matches the size someone would need to be for the footprints we found around the scene.
It also doesn’t help that inside the bag we found climbing gear and a glass saw. Which is how the perp got into the building with the help of
The next thing that is concerning is the russian. Behind a painting in the crown room was //“our game begins”// in russian. It is definitely strange but what’s even more weird is when Elizabeth said that Martin has a Russian accent. Which he does not. It just doesn’t add up.
Elizabeth. As well as how they cut into the glass.
I should talk to Mathias about elizabeth He was so mad last night when it came to her. Maybe she will know more about this situation
Martin’s brother James also has a criminal record. It’s minor but what worries Mathias and Arthur the butler at the castle. Is that the COA might be behind this.
The COA otherwise known as Criminals of America is the reason world war three started. Everyone is worried that this could start another war. The peace treaties are still up so if someone from America did this to europe it would be in violation of the treaty among all the countries.
The only thing that doesn’t add up is the russian behind the painting. Mathias has it marked as a red herring but I think it means something bigger. Elizabeth even brought it up.
Also I looked up this Elizabeth and it’s not her name. I had to use facial recognition to find her. Her name is Alissa Moore. She lives in… in the bad part of europe. So maybe we should talk to her aswell
Maybe that’s why I’m not as worried as the others. I don’t think it’s the COA. They’ve been dormant ever since the war ended. Why would they act up now?
“Cindy? You good? Look like your bout-ta, blow a fuse or somethin.”
[[Find Mathias]] “Matt?” I call out while heading into our shared kitchen. I smile when I see him, he has a cup of coffee in one hand and some kind of pastry in the other. I shake my head. “I didn’t know we had pastries Mr. Mathias.”
“Well, I may have hidden them from ya for a reason.” He smiles at me and takes a bite of whatever he has. We sit down at the table and I lean back into the chair.
“Besides you hiding things from me. What’s our next move?” I ask as he finishes up the pastry and moves onto the coffee. He sure does take is sweet time now doesn’t he.
“Well… I talked to the station and they said they are workin on catching the american bloke.” He pauses to pick at his teeth. “I reckon we could head back to the castle. That maid is real suspicious dontcha think? Atleast until we catch Martin.” Mathias picks up a spoon and looks at his reflection as he cleans himself up.
“Well. The problem with Miss Elizabeth is… she is actually one Alissa Moore.” Mathias drops the spoon and looks at me.
“For real? Damn she’s good. She really had us going didn’t she. You think she was lyin ‘bout that Jack or Jake guy?” Mathias asks while he sips his coffee.
“Most likely. Since this Allisa Moore lives with both her parents in the… well that side of town.” I shake my head and was getting ready to sigh when Mathias jumps up.
“Oh boy! A field trip to the slums? How fun! Lets get goin CC! I love going there it is so much fun!” Mathias runs into the other room and throws his coat on. I can’t help but laugh at the loud man. I stand up and get my winter gear on.
[[Chapter Four->chcc4]]
''January 2nd, 2100
Location: Clover Grove''
Mathias and I get a taxi and head on over to what everyone in Europe calls the slums. It’s a lot like America. Uncivilized and way too much neon. Even our cab driver was unsure of taking us to this dastardly place.
After about an hour of driving, we arrived on the edge of Clover Grove.
“Thanks for taking us this far. We can walk the rest.” Mathias says to the cab driver as we get out of the taxi. I put my hands in my pockets and Mathias and I head into the brightly colored city. It was around one oclock in the afternoon. The streets were bustling with aliens, brightly colored humans, and the homeless.
“Matt, I really don’t like this place.” I whisper to him.
“I know Cindy, after the last time you have ever right to be. We just need to find Alissa Moore.” Mathias hooks our arms together and walks a bit faster. We need to get to the police office here. Hopefully they will be able to tell us something about Alissa.

</div>
After what felt like a decade we arrive at the Clover Police Station. Mathias unhooks his arm from mine and pushes the heavy metal door open. It scrapes against the floor which produces a horrible sound. The two of us head inside and walk up to the front desk.
“Excuse me Ma’am? We need to speak with your police chief.” I say, trying to sound as confident as I can. There's a blond woman working the station. She is more interested in fixing her lipstick than helping us. I don’t even think she heard me.
I look to Mathias and he shrugs and takes two of the visitor’s badges off the counter. He clips one onto my coat and the other onto the collar of his shirt. I smile and then shake my head as we walk right into the police station. Hopefully their chief is a little more competent than blondie over here.
[[Find the Chief]]Mathias and I walk around the station until we find the Chief of Police’s office. Chief Harrison.
I knock on the door and wait for an answer. Mathias and I can feel the eyes of the other officers and detectives on our backs. I guess they don’t see people like us all that often.
When the office door opens, cigarette smoke rolls out of the room in waves and a large man looks down on the two of us.
“Who the hell are you?” A gruff voice just about shouts at us.
“The names Mathias sir. This here is Cindy. We are here on… royal business.” Mathias whispers that last part and the chief just stares at use before stepping aside and letting us into the dark office.
[[Let Mathias do the talking]]
[[Face your fears and speak up]]We stand in front of the man's desk as he takes his seat. He leans back and lights another cigarette, poor mathias I’m sure his lungs are burning. The large man shakes his head.
“So why are you two preppy fellers down ‘ere in ol’Clover Grove? This place isn’t exactly your kind of town.” He bellows out to us and Mathias stands up straight.

“Well you see. Between us. The royal crown and Jewels have been stolen.” Mathias may not appear nervous but with a quick scan I can see he is sweating quite a lot for a human this time of year.
“WHAT?” Harrison shouts.
“Before you get your panties in a twist. We are only here to find one Alissa Moore. Can we use your data base to look her up. It’ll take only a second.” Mathias puts his hands up in defense and smiles at the man. The chief just stares at us before he picks up his phone and dials a number.
“Joey, I got two pillock’s up ‘er take em to the computers. They need to find someone.” He sets the phone back down and then looks at us. “You’ve got ten minutes.” He waves us out of his office and the two of us leave before we get escorted down to the computer lab.
I sit down in the chair and search up
[[Alissa Moore]]We stand in front of the man's desk as he takes his seat. He leans back and lights another cigarette, poor mathias I’m sure his lungs are burning. The large man shakes his head.

“Well you see. Between us. The royal crown and Jewels have been stolen.” Mathias may not appear nervous but with a quick scan I can see he is sweating quite a lot for a human this time of year.
“WHAT?” Harrison shouts. I nudge Mathias and give Harrison a smile.
“No need to worry sir. It should only take us a moment to search up a young lady by the name of Alissa Moore. She is the only lead we can investigate for now. Otherwise we would have to contact America and between us we still aren’t on the best of terms with them.” The man blinks a few times before picking up his phone and dialing a number
“Joey, I got two pillock’s up ‘er take em to the computers. They need to find someone.” He sets the phone back down and then looks at us. “Take your time.” He waves us out of his office and the two of us leave before we get escorted down to the computer lab.
I sit down in the chair and search up
[[Alissa Moore]] We both look at the computer and scroll through pictures until we find the right one.
//Alissa Moore
20 years old
Born: July 1st, 2080
Criminal Record:
Used to sell Atraflexx
Minor Theft
Penalty Charge Notice(s)
Home address: 332D Runner Street, NORTH WEST CLOVER GROVE
NW26 2KP//
“Well at least she’s been dirty so we know where she lives. You’d think the castle would have done a background check on her, though. Right now it isn’t looking too good for her.” Mathias says as I copy the file to my harddrive then I shut off the computer.
“I guess we’ve gotta head to Runner Street then.” I say and stand up.
“Cindy. Are you sure you want to go there? Last time-”
“Matt. I have you with me this time. Everything is fine.” I pat his shoulder and we walk out of the station.
[[Chapter Five->CC5]]After about a twenty minute walk to the address we got from the police station we arrived at an apartment complex. Mathias takes the lead on this one and knocks on the door. We wait for a second and then the door opens.
Alissa is in the doorway and her eyes go wide.
“IT WASN’T ME! HE MADE ME” She shouts at as and starts crying. The two of us are in shock at the display in front of us. A woman appears from behind Alissa and looks at the two of us.
“Alissa, please go clean yourself up. I’ll talk to these nice people.” She rubs Alissa’s back and then scoots her up the stairs. “So sorry about that. Please come in. You are most likely here about the Crown?” She whispers and steps to the side to let us in. We look at each other and walk inside the house.
“Yes ma’am. Your daughter? Is the only lead we can act on right now. We need to talk to her.” I say as we head into the living room. We sit down and the woman shakes her head.
“Yes Alissa is my daughter. She came home last night saying how she’s going to get in trouble again and she tried to leave me. I know she would never do something like that, not after she was sent away for what she did before.” Mrs. Moore shakes her head and sighs. “If there is anyway to clear her name I will gladly help. I didn’t even know she had a job.” She sighs and Alissa slowly peeks her head into the room.
“Well, we need to ask her some questions then. If we don’t know the truth. She may have to go back to prison.” Mathias says to the older women and you can almost see her heart break.
[["I'll tell you the truth this time."]]Alissa walks into the room and sits down on the couch next to her mother. She flattens her dress down and takes a deep breath.
“Alissa, If I hold your hands I can see if you’re lying or not. I have a polygraph system built into my hands.” I hold them out to her and they emit a soft purple glow. She pauses for a moment before grabbing ahold of my hands.
“I trust you.” She says as I boot up my detection programs.
“I’m sorry for being so hard on you before. I should have known better.” Mathias cuts me off and smiles at the girl.
“We should’ve known something was up, so please tell us everything you know.” Mathias smile at her when his phone starts ringing. “One moment.” He stands up and leaves the room.
“I’ll start the questions.”
[["Do you work at the royal castle?"]]“No. I don’t work at the castle. I got a call about two weeks from someone named Isaak Savelievich. He told me that he would get me into the castle as the new maid named Elizabeth Tory. Then I would sneak up to the Crown Room and unlock the window on the far right corner of the room. If I didn’t do this… they would… the would have killed my mother.” Once she finishes speaking my systems sweep over her polygraph results and I smile.
“She’s telling the truth.” I let her hands go for a moment and get up. I have more questions. Who is they? Also Isaak is just another name to add to our ever growing list of suspects.
“I’m going to find Mathias I will be right back. Then we can finish the questioning.” She sighs and leans into her mother as I walk into the other room. Mathias puts his phone in his back pocket and turns around. He jumps back a bit and then chuckles.
“Ya scared me Cindy!”
“Sorry Mathias, I started out with the first question and she was telling the truth so far. Who was that?” I look at the man and he sighs.
“The station called. The have Martin Aberdene in custody right now. We should get going.” Mathias sighs and shakes his head.
“What about Alissa?” I ask.
“This is a little more important Cindy. He is our real lead. His name is at the scene!” Mathias crosses his arms and looks at me. He looks upset now. However, he was the one who had the hunch about Alissa in the first place! I sigh to myself and then look back at the living room.
[[stay with alissa]]
[[go with mathias]]I look back over to mathias and sigh. “I’m staying here. She knows more I can feel it.” Mathias looked a bit hurt.
“Cindy last time you were here alone you almost got-”
“SHUT UP!” I turn and look Mathias in the eyes. “We said we wouldn’t talk about that ever again. I know what happened and I am willing to risk myself to save this girl. Isn’t that why we do this?” I haven’t snapped at Mathias like this in a long time, but he was in the wrong. Alissa is important to this case. If I can get more out of her then we could get closer to finding out who did this.
“Cindy…” Mathias looks down and sighs. “I’m sorry. You’re right. I don’t know what came over me… I’ll see you soon okay? Call me when you’re done.” He pulls me into a hug and I shake my head.
“You’re an idiot Mathias, but I forgive you.” We let go of each other and he smiles.
“Stay safe Cindy. I’ll see you in a few hours.” Mathias heads out the front door and I walk back into the living room with the two women.
“My partner had to leave. To check in on anpther lead, however I will stay and keep finding out what you know.” I sit down in front of Alissa and smile.
[[continue to ask questions]] I sigh and nod. “You’re right Mathias we should get going.” I walk back into the room where Alissa and her Mother are. “Sorry but something came up and we need to get going. I appreciate the little bit of information we from you.” I hand them our business card. “If something comes up let us know.” We say our goodbyes and I follow Mathias outside.
“I’m sorry Cindy. I know you wanted to stay but-” Mathias starts to apologize.
“No it’s alright Mathias. I got a name from her and that’s all that matters. I’ll look it up a little later. Right now we need to decide what we should ask Martin when we get there.” Mathias and I walk through the streets of Clover Grove until we finally get out of this horrible city. We call a cab and wait for it to arrive. We ask the driver to take us to The City of London police station.
[[Talk with Martin]]I hold my hands out for Alissa and she grabs ahold of them.
“If you could tell me everything you know about this case, I would appreciate it. Even if you think its not important. Please tell me.” I give Alissa a reassuring smile and she nodes her head.
“I’ll start over. Two weeks ago I was sitting right here and I got a call from my mum’s phone number. However it wasn't my mum. A man named Isaak Savelievich said he was going to have my mum killed if I didn’t do what he asked. So I had to do it.” She pauses to keep herself from crying before she continues her story. “I was told to go to the royal castle in the maids outfit they dropped off at my home-”
“Who are they?” I ask. “Sorry didn’t mean to cut you off there.” I look at her and she thinks for a moment before shruging.
“They didn’t tell me much, other than something like SOA or OH! COA.” She nods and I lean back and mumbled some choice words under my breath.
“Thank you, you can continue now.” Matt and Arthur were right, the Criminals or America are behind this. Which is extremely bad for us.
“So, they told me to go to the castle and open the window like I told you already. They had given me someones bag to put up in the tiles too. Then they said to come back to the castle the next day and to lie to the officers that question me. As well as to blame the american. That’s about it, the rest was done by this COA group.” Once she finishes I look through the polygraph and it all checks out. She got high scores on everything so she is definitely telling me the truth.
Hold on…
“Arthur. What about him. He knew you.” I look at her in shock.
“I don’t know how he did, I don’t actually work there.” She replies and I do a quick search of this Isaak guy.
Oh… Oh no. Arthur and the photo in the database for Isaak are the same.
Could this be a set up? Arthur seemed so concerned about the COA that not even Mathias picked up on it. Just who are you isaak?
[[''BANG'']]
I wince at the sudden sound and look up to see Mrs. Moore. Except this time there is blood splattered all along the wall behind her and she has a hole in her head. My synthetic eyes go wide and I grab ahold of Alissa before pulling her down to the ground and taking cover. Just as I predicted a barrage of gunfire gets let loose on where we were just sitting.
Alissa is shaking and crying and all I can do is hold onto the girl and request back up through the systems built into my head. It locates every station in all of britain and requests for backup. I know the station in Clover Grove won't help. They didn’t last time.
“Shhh, it’s okay Alissa. I’ve got you.” I hold onto the girl tight and we stay like that until I can hear sirens in the distance.
[[Chapter Six]]
''January 3rd, 2100
Location: Addenbrooke’s Hospital''
It took the paramedics too long to get to us. Sadly we both ended up getting injured. Nothing horrible but we were taken to Addenbrooke’s hospital. I needed some patchwork done and Alissa had gotten grazed by a couple of bullets. She was in shock more than anything. I don’t know what is going on right now but maybe when Mathias is allowed in here he can tell me something.
The door bursts open and I jump out of my thoughts.
“CINDY! Oh thank god you’re not dead!” Speak of the devil. He runs over to me and looks me up and down before giving me a big hug.
“I’m okay. It was just a scratch. Mrs. Moore is the one you should be worried about. I’m afraid she is no longer with us.” I sigh and give him a good squeeze before he sits down next to me. “It’s the COA for sure. Alissa confirmed it with me. Also… we need to find Arthur. He could have a part in this.” I look at the floor and shake my head. “This is way bigger than I ever thought it would have been.”
“I know. It’s a mess. It turns out Martin’s bag was stolen. I asked him what happened and he said one second he was on the train tryin’ to get home and the next he was in some alley way with nothing but a bit of cash and a sore neck. They think he was drugged.” Mathias rubs his hand over his face and sighs.
“So it’s true that he was framed then… Mathias I think it was Arthur. When I searched up the name Alissa gave me, Isaak Savelievich, Arthur’s picture came up. Arthur wasn’t accounted for that night either. The only issue is Arthur is a real person too. So I don’t know what to think anymore.” I stand up and put my coat back on.
“Cindy what are you doing?” Mathias jumps up, he clearly doesn’t want me walking around just yet.
“Matt. I’m fine, but the world is not.” I was getting ready for some big speech when Jorge and Steven, the royal guards, burst into the room.
“It happened! They broadcasted it.” Jorge shouts and gets the television remote. He turns on the news and it’s everywhere.
''The Americans have stolen the Crown and Jewels''
“Shit.” Mathias and I say.
[[Find Arthur]]Mathias and I run down the stairs with the guards and into their police car. They flip the sirens on and we drive to the castle. It was a twenty minute drive so we had to just sit and wait. If we can’t find Arthur we will have no leads and this will be not only be the end of our investigation, but potentially the end of the world.
“Cindy, you’re thinking too hard. We will catch this guy. I promise.” Mathias pats my shoulder as the car slows down in front of the castle. “We can do this. We’ve never not solved a case. We are the best of the best, remember?” We get out of the car and thank the guards before making our way inside the castle.
It’s quiet inside the castle. It’s unsettling. The two of us walk slowly through the empty halls.
“Where is everyone?” I look at Mathias and he shrugs.
“I don’t know, It worries me though.” As soon as Mathias says that two gunshots ring out throughout the castle. That’s not just any gun either. It’s an electric shotgun. We don’t have those here. They’re only available in America and Russia. Mathias starts to run off in the direction the gunshot when off in.
[[Stop Him]]
[[Follow Him]]I run after Mathias and grab him by his suitjacket.
“Matt! Wait.” He turns and gives me one of his Mathias looks. “Mathias that was an electric shotgun. If we go down there without backup we are dead.” I say and it looks like he was about to say something back but he stopped himself.
“I hate it when you’re right. Well go and call-” He starts.
“I already called everyone that I could. They are on their way. We should wait.” Mathias nods and pats my back while we walk out to the front of the castle. After a few minutes the place was swarming with officers.
“Jackson!” I call out and jog over to our old friend. “Here’s what we are dealing with. There is at least one suspect inside. They are armed with an electric shotgun which is bad for us, we have reason to believe the suspect is apart of the Criminals of America.” As soon as that last part leaves my lips you can see his eyes widen.
“Shit, alright. Go and get some gear one. Can’t have my favorite detectives dying on me.” Jackson gives me a smile then turns to his squad and begin debriefing them.
“Come on Mathias. We get to look like real officers today.” I say while we head over to the police van.
“Oh, what a dream come true.” He bats his eyes and we both laugh as we get vests and guns.
[[Storm The Castle]] I shake my head and run after Mathias. We run around the corner and are face to face with a group of people.
''//Arthur
Martin
Alissa?//''
But how... she passed my polygraph test. There's no way a human could do that.
"Surprise Suprise. Look who showed up to join us..." Arthur's voice rings out through the hall, except this time there's a heavy russian accent laced in with his words. The two of us stop and look at the dead guard on the floor. There's blood pooling all around him and Martin has the Shotgun in hand.
“How… Why?” I ask and Alissa laughs at me.
“You forgot to check and see if I’m human you stupid robot!” She laughs and her skin turns green. “I just brainwashed that women to think I was her daughter. Then Arty here shot her!”
Arthur walks towards us and we back up.
“How’d you do it then? It doesn’t make sense. Nothing about this makes sense!” Mathias yells. “Who are you guys? How do you all have such thick backgrounds if you’re all fake.” I pull Mathias back a little. They have the gun here not us.
“Because our backgrounds are real. Martin has a crazy brother named James. I am a butler at the castle, and little miss Alissa’s background was crafted over the course of numerous years. This isn’t something we came up with last week!” Arthur laughs and shakes his head. “This plan has been in the works since the end of WWIII. I’ll be damned if you and your little robot ruin everything the COA have worked for!” Arthur shouts and aims the shotgun at us.
“Wait.” I say. “If you’re going to kill us at least give us the courtesy of telling us how you all planned this?” I step forwards a bit in hopes to buy Mathias some time to think of a plan.
“Yeah! Plus you never answered my question. Why? You know what’ll happen if you do this.” Mathias says as he takes a step back.
This time Alissa speaks up. “We knowwww we’ve heard you complain about it over and over. Oh no world war FOUR!” She laughs. “That’s kinda the goal here? Look at how highclass you all are! You hated even coming to my side of the town. So if we can start a war between America and Britain again, well history will repeat itself as it always does.” Arthur clearly looks annoyed with Alissa.
“Alissa keep your trap shut.” Martin finally speaks up.
[[Push for more answers]]
[[look for a way out]]
If I can keep them distracted maybe Mathias can find us a way out of this mess.
“Stop avoiding my questions. I want to know!” I shout which breaks up the small argument between Martin and Alissa. “If you don’t give me some answers now, there will be consequences. I am hooked up to every police database in all of europe. So don’t test me.” It’s an empty threat but hopefully it’ll do the trick. My model’s features were never released to the public so unless they are working high up within Tesla’s robotics department there’s no way they should know that I am partially lying. It seems that my little party trick worked. After doing a quick scan of all three I can see that they have small changes in their behavior that would indicate being nervous, stressed, or worried.
“Fine, but if at any point I think you’re doing something I will shoot your human and then you.” Arthur snaps at me and I slowly inch towards the small group. “It was a simple plan until I found out they were putting the fake detectives on the case. I’ve been working this job for twenty years now. Every second has been agonizing and I had to leave my old life behind. Isaak Savelievich, he was-” Arhut started talking and I saw a chance to distract him.
“Isaak Savelievich was a russian warrior during WWIII. He joined the war after Europe bombed his hometown. Alissa told me your real name and that’s why we came back. We just have a couple of questions” Arthur stares at me and then turns to Alissa.
“YOU TOLD THEM MY REAL NAME? Are you stupid? Who all knows this?” Arthur looks at me.
“If you’re thinking about shooting me over this I would advise against it. I have the information queued up and ready to send to everyone the second my body is in any danger.” I step closer to the group. “Now tell me how you did this. I don’t want your sad backstories. Just the truth.”
[[The Truth]]
I look around and back up a bit.
“Stop avoiding my questions. I want to know!” Mathias shouts which breaks up the small argument between Martin and Alissa. “Just tell me already or Cindy is going to call the Special ops team.” Mathias gives them a smug smirk. Unknown to all of them I already did. Hopefully they’re on their way.
“Fine, but if at any point I think you’re doing something I will shoot you and your little robot too.” Arthur snaps at mhime and I can see mathias walking closer to the group “It was a simple plan until I found out they were putting the fake detectives on the case. I’ve been working this job for twenty years now. Every second has been agonizing and I had to leave my old life behind. Isaak Savelievich, he was-” Arhut started talking and I saw a chance to distract him.

“If you’re thinking about shooting me over this I would advise against it. I have the information queued up and ready to send to everyone the second my body is in any danger.” I say and Mathias just laughs in their faces ,“Now tell me how you did this. I don’t want your sad backstories. Just the truth.”

Martin puts a hand on Arthur’s shoulder and then looks at me.
//Recording started…//
“The COA is trying to start World War Four. But you already know that. The plan was put into place twenty years ago when “Arthur” started working at the castle. Alissa was in charge of crafting a human background for herself as well as working on her accent. All I had to do was show up in europe when it was time. I would get beat up and drugged in an alley.

Arthur used my combat boots to make the footprints, the scratches on the wall were made while everyone was on holiday that week before. The night it all happened Alissa cut into all the cases, and took the glass with her after hiding the bag in the tiles. We were going to frame someone but we are past that now, aren't we. Then an hour late Arthur slipped into the room and took the Jewels and Crown. The russian behind that painting was put there as another trip up.” Martin lets go of Arthur’s shoulder and gives me a wicked smile.
“Well said my boy. Now Cindy I’m afraid we have to broadcast the destruction of the royal jewels. So I am going to have to cut this little meeting short.” He aims the gun at Mathias and I can feel my nonexistent heart pick up pace.
[[BANG]]''Chapter Seven: Knight in Shining Armor''
''Martin's POV''
Purple. That’s all I can see as I run down the hall. A ringing in my ears from the blast that just went off. I push open the front doors and I am greeted with the special forces team. They push past me and I fall down onto my knees. I stare at my purple hands in disbelief. That… That didn’t happen, did it?
Why can't I see? Oh… I’m crying. My best friend is gone. I looked up to see some people shouting at me but I can’t hear them. All I hear is a ringing sound. It hurts. I slowly stand up and some paramedics? I dunno who they are but they are helping me get into their flashing vehicle. Before I knew it, I was asleep.
I dreamt about Cindy until the purple monster took over my dreams.
When I woke up I was met with one of my favorite officers.
"Hey matt. Cindy sent us a recording of everything that happened. We recovered the Crown and Jewels. Thanks to you two, the world is safe for another day." Jackson says to me and all I can do is smile.
"I'm glad she did. I'm proud of her." Tears roll down my face and I look at Jackson. "Thanks for letting me know Jack..."
"I felt you should know. She was your partner afterall." Jack pats my shoulder and walks out of my hospital room.
''January 10th, 2100''
It’s been a week since my best friend passed away. I know she would be proud that we caught the bad guys, but it doesn’t feel like a win. I look at myself in the mirror. All dressed up, combed hair, I even put lotion on this morning. I smile and tuck a purple handkerchief into my pocket square. I grab Cindy’s coat and put it on. With a sigh I opened the door and walked outside. I hail down a cab and get inside.
“The Royal Castle Please.” I say and slide my card through the machine. I watch as the buildings blur together. It’s not that far, I could’ve walked. Cindy would’ve said
“No Matt, it’s too cold for that.” I chuckled to myself in the empty car, this is one of the new cabs. No driver. Just you and your thoughts. The cab slows down and stops in front of the castle.
[[Get out of the cab]]
I step out of the cab and the cold air surrounds my body. I shiver and make my way up the steps of the castle. For most coming here is the best moments of their lives. Now it just reminds me of Cindy. The guards at the top of the steps bow to me and push open the big doors. I step inside and two more guards escort me down the hall. I pause in front of another set of doors.
“Sir? Are you ready?” The guard on my left whispers to me. All I can do is nod my head and the doors open.
A long red carpet is rolled out between the rows of wooden seats. All of the seats are filled with people, and all those people are looking at me. At the end of the carpet sits King Heorge and Queen Sabrina.
I man walks up to me. “Sir, your coat.” I pause and then take it off. I was asked to wear a white suit, red tie, and black shoes. I forget just how traditional europe is nowadays. Atleast I dont have to pray for what is it, ten hours? I begin walking down the long isle. I wish Cindy was here. I hate large crowds. I stop at the end of the altar and king stands up.
“Please be seated.” His loud voice echoes throughout the hall. I bow my head and he chuckles.
“Please, My boy you have done the world a great service. We thank you.” The priest walks in with the king’s sword and he hands it off to him.

“Mathias Darrigton Evergreen please repeat after me, //"I promise on my faith that I will in the future be faithful to the lord, never cause him harm and will observe my homage to him completely against all persons in good faith and without deceit."// I pause for a moment and then kneel down on one knee.
"I promise on my faith that I will in the future be faithful to the lord, never cause him harm and will observe my homage to him completely against all persons in good faith and without deceit." After I repeat what the king said he takes the sword out of the scabbard and waves it above me head.
“I, King George, declare Mathias Darrington Evergreen and Cindy Evergreen Knight and Dame of my royal court.” He places the sword on either side of my head and I can feel the tears welling up. I stand back up and he hands the sword back to the priest. “I think I can break tradition this once.” He steps closer to me and gives me a hug.
“Thank you Sir.” I say as we break apart.
''“No, Thank you Mathias.”''

I sit in the cemetery with a plate of waffles and I smile as I leaned against a gravestone.
“Hey Cindy. I brought your favorite again. I put strawberry jelly on it. Just how you like it.” I closed my eyes and take a bite of the waffles. “We got another case today. Some lady is stealing puppies? I know kinda messed up.” I finish up waffles and then stand up.
“See ya tomorrow Cindy. How does pancakes sound?” I smiled to myself and I walk away from the gravestone.

//We follow the man in the suit who we found out is named Arthur. He leads us through the royal castle and down the hall. There are several armed guards who look like they’re ready to pounce on anything that moves.
“Right on in here is where it happened, feel free to touch or look at anything you’d like, just please wear gloves if you do.” Arthur says before motioning to the heavy double doors.//

My electronic eyes go wide when I hear the sound of the shotgun go off.
''Red.''
Oh God Red. It’s everywhere. It’s not just any Red. It’s Mathias Evergreen Red. I shake and look at Arthur with wide eyes. My systems are glitching. I can’t think straight anymore. I closed my eyes ready for what’s next.
I hear the sound of a gun go off, but my respiratory program is still functioning. I open my eyes and Arthur has been shot down. I turn around and Jackson is standing behind me.
“This is Officer Jackson requesting backup in the eastern wing. We have shots fired. I repeat shots fired.” He lets go of his ear piece and helps me up. “Let’s get you out of here.” I know he’s talking but, what is he saying. My audio processors seem to be failing me. Maybe I got shot too. I should rest my eyes.
''January 4th, 2100
Location: Unknown''
I open my eyes and they seem to be working now. I sit up slowly and look around.
"Hey, slow down." I turn my head and I see Jackson's daughter Millie.
"Why... oh." I remeber now. Mathias... My best friend is gone. Millie sits down next to me and gives me a hug.
"Cindy. I'm so sorry. If you want you can stay here. I know going home to an empty house is not fun." I squeeze her tight and I let the real tears roll down my cheeks.
"Thank you Millie."
[[The Ceremony]]''January 10th, 2100''
It’s been a week since my best friend passed away. I know he would be proud that we caught the bad guys, but it doesn’t feel like a win. Millie has been letting me stay at her house. It's too hard for my proces- no...
It's too hard for me to go back to the apartment. I miss him so much. Millie took me out shopping to get a white dress. She bought a boquet of red roses that day too. Now I'm standing infront of a mirror in a fancy dress, when I'd rather be under some blankets drinking hot coco.
"You look great." Millie says and I turn and look at her. She tucks a rose into my hair and gives me a smile. "How about we go and see the King." I nod my head and get Mathias's Winter jacket. I put it on and we head outside to Millie's car.
When we arrive at the castle I can already tell that I don't like this place anymore.
I step out of her car and the cold air surrounds my body. I shiver and make my way up the steps of the castle. For most coming here is the best moments of their lives. Now it just reminds me of Mathias. The guards at the top of the steps bow to me and push open the big doors. I step inside and two more guards escort me and Millie down the hall. I pause in front of another set of doors.
“Cindy? Are you ready?” Millie asks me. Honest answer? No. However I have to do this. For Him.
"Yeah. Open the flood gates." I laugh a bit and the doors open.
A long red carpet is rolled out between the rows of wooden seats. All of the seats are filled with people, and all those people are looking at me. At the end of the carpet sits King George and Queen Sabrina.
I man walks up to me. “Madam, your coat.” I pause and then take it off. I was asked to wear a white, red, and black. I forget just how traditional europe is nowadays. Atleast I dont have to pray for what is it, ten hours? I begin walking down the long isle. I wish Mathias was here. I hate large crowds. I stop at the end of the altar and king stands up.
“Please be seated.” His loud voice echoes throughout the hall. I bow my head and he chuckles.
“Please, Madam you have done the world a great service. We thank you and your partner.” The priest walks in with the king’s sword and he hands it off to him.

I sit in the cemetery with a plate of waffles and I smile as I leaned against a gravestone.
“Hi Matt. It's me again. I brought whipped cream with a side of waffles for you." I take a bite and the information from the various ingrediants floods my systems. "They're just as unhealthy as the last time we ate them. I moved back into the appartment. Millie visits me a lot. She says she's worried, I would be too." I sigh as I finish my food. "I'm gonna keep the buisness going. Hopefully the next case has puppies. Then I can get a whole bunch of puppies." I stand up and give Mathias a pat.
“See ya tomorrow Mathias, How does pancakes sound?” I smile to myself and I walk away from the gravestone.
//It's a new month, so I'm going to start fresh. //
[[The End->EndingCindy]]Once everyone is ready they open the front doors and people begin swarming the castle. You can hear their footsteps echoing through the halls and the occasional ‘ALL CLEAR.’ Mathias and I know where they are, so we take Jackson and his squad with us down the hall we were at not a moment ago.
When we turn the corner there is blood all over the place as well as the remnants of servant. You can hear Jackson say some choice words before he radios the medical examiners before following Mathias and I down the hall.
“Look, The crown room’s doors are open.” I whisper to Mathias.
“You think Arthur’s in there?” He responds to me.
“That’s our only suspect right now so it has to be him.” I look back at Jackson and point at the crown room. “There’s another set of doors that lead into this room. Can you have another team guard those doors?”
“Alright Cindy, This is Senior Officer Jackson requesting backup, I need a team to cover the western entrance to the crown room immediately.” After a few moments we get the okay and we surround the doorway to the crown room. Inside I can hear three voices. I hold a pistol close to my chest and Jackson counts down from three on his fingers.
Once the countdown hits zero we burst into the room.
“HANDS WHERE I CAN SEE THEM!” Jackson and his team has their guns pointed at…
Alissa? Martin? And Arthur?
Their eyes go wide and Arthur bolts towards the other door. He rips it open and is face to face with multiple armed men and women.
“Sorry Arty, but we caught you red handed.” Mathias says and picks up the electric shotgun. “Oh and we will be needing this. Hope you don’t mind.” Mathias chuckles and Arthur glares at us.
“The COA is not going to stop here. We will get our revenge!” Athur yells as Jackson puts him into cuffs.
“Alright old man, you can tell all of this to the judge.” Jackson and his squad take the three away to a squad car and we look around the room for the crown.
“Hey Mathias. Look what I found.” In a small black bag in the corner of the room is the crown and jewels. “I Guess we did solve the case.” I say, “Even if it was just by chance.”
“I bet Jack will let us question those fools.” Mathias grins and rubs his hands together. “I want to know all their dirty secrets.” We both laugh and grab the bag that’s full of evidence and head outside.
[[The Questioning]]''Chapter Seven: Knight in Shining Armor''
''January 5th, 2100
Location: City of London Police Station''
It’s been two days since we stopped a war and got the crown back. It’s been a pretty great two days. Mathias is back to his normal cheery self and I’m not stressed out about Mathias anymore. Now we get to interrogate the perps. Mainly because we are confused about a lot of things. How did Alissa pass my tests? How do they all have such complicated backgrounds? Is Arthur… Arthur? Or is he Isaak? This list goes on and on. So we have been tasked with integrating these losers.
“You ready Cindy? You wanna be good cop or bad cop? I think I do a pretty good bad cop if I’m honest.” Mathias pulls at his suit jacket and I laugh at him.
“Okay bad cop, I’ll be good cop then.” I shake my head, knowing this won’t last at all. Especially when Mathias sticks a loli in his mouth and puts aviators on. He’s wearing such a nice suit too and now he’s ruined it. He kicks the door open and it startles our three guests.
“Hello Scum.” Oh lord have mercy on us. “I’m Mathias and today I’m interrogating you alongside my partner Cindy.” Mathias turns the chair around and sits on it. I shake my head and sit down next to him.
“We have a couple of questions for you so we can wrap this investigation up.” I say and fold my hands neatly in my lap.
“So they brought in the fake detective and his robo buddy. Cool.” Martin says while leaning back in his chair.
“HEY WE ARE NOT FAKE YOU LITTLE-” Mathias begins shouting and now he’s taken his role too far so I best interviene.
“Mathias. Go take five.” I look at him and he takes his sunglasses off and then proceeds to storm out of the room.
“My apologies for the big baby. Now If you answer my questions quickly and truthfully we won’t have any problems.” The three of them are hooked up to lie detectors that will beep whenever they lie. Alissa is an alien as it turns out, so she has been given the proper detection machine. That’s how she lied to me last time.
“Let's Start simple. What are your real names?”

“I’m Martin Aberdene from America but you already know that. The old man is Issak Savelievich from Russia, you knew him as Arthur. The alien is Alissa Moore she comes from Saturn.” Martin speaks up for his teammates and they are clearly unhappy about it.
“Way to go Martin, you just ratted us out!” Alissa shouts.
“Like you didn’t think about doing it earlier. You even said you’d thought about it.” Martin responds.
“That’s enough! Next Question, Why did you steal the crown and Jewels?” I cross my legs and stare at Isaak.
“We stole them to start another war you idiot. The COA lives on through many of us. It’s our job to get back the freedom we lost.” Isaak has finally shown his true colors, his russian accent is strong and loud, however he’s lying.
“Try again.” I look into his eyes and he looks away from me.
“Fine you witch. We are trying to start World War Four. I started this plan twenty years ago, at the time the COA has lost everything. I’m an ex russian soldier and europe bombed my home. I joined up with the COA to get revenge. For me this is about revenge for the COA it’s for another war. I’m old and I don’t care anymore. I got to work at a castle for twenty years, then I got to rob it. Alissa joined us five years ago and she created her own backstory. Martin joined us ten years ago and his whole story is 100% true. So yay for you. You figured out it was the COA right away.” No buzzer went off this time so it’s safe to assume that he is telling the truth.
“We left clues behind to hopefully throw you off guard. However I think it blew up in our faces. Just like I said it would. I’m sure the bag you got from us was enough. It had the glass pieces that I cut out in it. Which is totally uncool, cause I did a good job.” Alissa says and rolls her eyes. Just as we start to wrap up Mathias bursts into the room.
“Alright let's get the questions rolling.” he says.
“Matt… we are done here, you can watch the footage when we get home. Thank you for your cooperation.” I stand up and walk towards the door.
“Wait…” Alissa says and I turn around to look at her. “What are they going to do with us.” She asks.
“The least they will do is have you executed like the olden days. You know how it is around here.” Mathias says and I nod my head.
“Sadly that’s how the people will vote this. Especially since you went and made it public.” I say and open the door.
“You’re all a bunch of stooty old-” I shut the door on them before they can say anything else.
[[The Ceremony->Ceremony]]
''January 10, 2100
Location: The apartment''
Mathias and I are currently eating waffles. It's been over a week since we caught the bad guys and solved the case. Today we have another task to get through.
"You ready?" Mathias asks me as soon as he finishes eating.
"As I'll ever be." I look up at my partner and laugh. "You never wear white. It suits you." I say as I stand up.
"And you never wear dresses. It suits you too." He smiles and puts on his brand new tailcoat. I look down at my white dress and chuckle.
"It's a bit excessive but that's how Europe works." We get out coats on and then head out to the cab we have waiting for us. We both get inside and type the adress into the cab.
After a good twenty minutes the cab slows down and I step out of the cab. I I shiver as we make our way up the steps of the castle.The guards at the top of the steps bow to us and push open the big doors. We step inside and two more guards escort me down the hall.
"Here we go Cindy. The path to knighthood." He chuckles and I nudge him to be quiet as the doors open.
A long red carpet is rolled out between the rows of wooden seats. All of the seats are filled with people, and all those people are looking at us. At the end of the carpet sits King George and Queen Sabrina.
A man walks up to us and holds his arms out. "Your coats please." We take them off and I smile at the large crown. We were asked to wear white, red, and black. All traditional knight things? I forget just how traditional europe is nowadays. Atleast we dont have to pray for what is it, ten hours? We link arms and begin walking down the long isle. We stop at the end of the altar and king stands up.
“Please be seated.” His loud voice echoes throughout the hall and everyone doeas as he asks.
“Let's Start simple. What are your real names?”

“You two have done the world a great service. We thank you.” The priest walks in with the king’s sword and he hands it off to him.
“Mathias Darrigton Evergreen please repeat after me, //"I promise on my faith that I will in the future be faithful to the lord, never cause him harm and will observe my homage to him completely against all persons in good faith and without deceit."// I can see him pause for a moment and then he kneels down on one knee.
"I promise on my faith that I will in the future be faithful to the lord, never cause him harm and will observe my homage to him completely against all persons in good faith and without deceit." After I repeat what the king said he takes the sword out of the scabbard.
“Cindy Evergreen please repeat after me, //"I promise on my faith that I will in the future be faithful to the lord, never cause him harm and will observe my homage to him completely against all persons in good faith and without deceit."// I kneel down next to Mathias and I can hear him trying his hardest to not laugh.
"I promise on my faith that I will in the future be faithful to the lord, never cause him harm and will observe my homage to him completely against all persons in good faith and without deceit." I repeat.
“I, King George of Europe, declare Mathias Darrington Evergreen and Cindy Evergreen Knight and Dame of my royal court.” He places the sword on either side of my head and does the same with Mathias. We both stand back up and bow to the king and queen.
“Thank you Sir.” I say
''“No, Thank you.”''

[[The Crime Scene]]
//We follow the man in the suit who we found out is named Arthur. He leads us through the royal castle and down the hall. There are several armed guards who look like they’re ready to pounce on anything that moves.
“Right on in here is where it happened, feel free to touch or look at anything you’d like, just please wear gloves if you do.” Arthur says before motioning to the heavy double doors.//
[["Do you work at the royal castle?"]]
//“Sorry Mathias, I started out with the first question and she was telling the truth so far. Who was that?” I look at the man and he sighs.//
[[Chapter Six]]
''January 3rd, 2100
Location: Addenbrooke’s Hospital''
//It took the paramedics too long to get to us. Sadly we both ended up getting injured. Nothing horrible but we were taken to Addenbrooke’s hospital. I needed some patchwork done and Alissa had gotten grazed by a couple of bullets. She was in shock more than anything. I don’t know what is going on right now but maybe when Mathias is allowed in here he can tell me something.//
[[Chapter Six- Go with Mathias ->Later That Evening]]
//“CINDY A LEAD CAME FROM THE DOOR!” //When we arrive at the police station Jackon, one of Matt’s old friends escorts us to their interrogation room.
“What’s funny is your guy here came to us. Says his bag was stolen. I’m sure CC here can tell us if he’s lying or not so we didn’t bother going across town to get the polygraphs.” Jackson shrugs and stops in front of the door. “Don’t scare him too much Mathias.” Jackson chuckles and walks into a room next door so he can watch the interrogation.
“Sooo who's gonna be good cop and who’s gonna be bad cop.” Mathias gives me a smug look and I roll my eyes.
“Maybe we should just be ourselves. Everytime we try to do that you always mess it up and I have to tell you to take five.” I say with a flat tone.
“Fine, but if he doesn’t talk then I’m gonna blame you.” Mathias pouts like he’s a wee boy again and all I do is laugh and then open the door.
“Hello Martin. I’m Detective Cindy and this here is Detective Mathias, we have a couple of questions for you. Do you mind if I sit down next to you?” I ask and pull out the chair next to Martin.
“Oh yeah, go ahead.” Definitely American, his accent is strong.
“Also, this is just something we have to do with a case this big, but I need you to hold onto my hands. I have a polygraph system built into my hands. This shouldn’t take long.” I smile and hold my hands out to him.
“Yeah that fine.” He slowly grabs ahold of my hands and I look at Mathias.
“Alright. Did someone steal your bag?” Mathias asks.

</div>
“Yes.” Martin says but something is wrong. It says he’s lying.
“Well I guess we are done here now.” Mathias stands up and fixes his tie.
“Matt… he lied.” I glance over to Mathias and he glares at Martin before sitting back down.
[["Let's Try this again. Did someone steal your bag?"]]“NO. Is that what you want to hear? You’re supposed to be with ALISSA why aren't you there?” Martin glares at me and leans back in his chair. “Now I’m going to get int trouble and it’s all your fault.” Martin rolls his eyes.
“What? How do you know Alissa?” Mathias asks.
“We work together for, you guessed it already. The COA. Honestly no one thought it would get connected back to us this fast.” Martin groans. “Since I can’t lie I might as well tell you the truth. I’m probably going to get killed here or in America anyway. People don’t take these kind of offenses lightly.” Martin chuckles.
“Wait, so Alissa is in on this too? How did she pass the polygraph?” My brow furrows as I ask Martin.
“Alissa isn’t human.” Oh, I’m not advanced enough to tell humans and aliens apart.
“Okay, now spill the beans buddy.” Mathias crosses his arms and stares at Martin.
“The plan was, have Alissa look suspicious so nothing gets traced back to Isaak. While whoever they put on the case is talking to Alissa her fake mom is supposed to get shot in the head and then as soon as Alissa is in cover we open fire on the detectives, which makes Alissa’s case look stronger. I’m just the guy who got his bag stolen. We were supposed to broadcast and an American Official destroying the Crown and Jewels tomorrow night. However I don’t know how well that’s going to work now. Alissa would shift into Jacob Wesly, aka the Vice President of America. We have people over in America ready to kidnap him the second Isaak gives them the okay. ” Martin smiles at us.
“Alissa said the same name. Who is Isaak?” I ask.
“Oh, you haven’t figured it out yet? Isaak is Arthur. Arthur created this plan when the war ended and screwed him over. So he created a fake identity and became the castles most loyal butler. When you two figured out it was the COA so soon it freaked Isaak out. It freaked everyone out once you two were put on the case. The COA has you on a watch list, they think you could ruin them.” Martin shrugs and lets go of my hands. “Sorry, I’m getting sweaty. I can tell you where Arthur is going to be tomorrow if that helps. He’s going to go back to the crown room and hopefully Alissa will be there too.” Martin closes his eyes and leans back in the chair.
“Thank you Martin. We appreciate it. This should make your sentence not as painful.” I say as Mathias and I look at each other then head out of the room.
“I’m glad you came with me, if not… it might’ve been too late to catch these guys.” Mathias pats my back and we walk over to Jackson who is on his phone.
“Okay, we are on our way.” He puts his phone in his pocket. “You two, with me. I’m assuming you know who this Alissa is right?” Jackson starts walking to the elevator and we follow.
“Yeah, we just came from there.” I say to Jack.
“Well both her and her mother are dead.” Jackson says.
[[Chapter Six->CH6]]''Chapter Six
January 2nd, 2100
Location: Alissa's Home''
When we show up at Alissa’s house there are police cars all over the place. Caution tape has been put up to keep bystanders out and there are medical examiners all over the place. I run onto the scene and into the house. I can hear people shouting behind me but I don’t care. I have to know if Alissa is dead.
I ran into the living room and there she is. Her skin his a soft green and she has a bullet hole in her head. There is blue and red blood all over the room. Why would Isaak kill her. He needs her alive right?
“Dang it.” Mathias kicks the sofa and storms out of the house and I follow him.
“Matt what does this mean? Martin wasn’t lying to me when he told me that so why would Isaak kill her?”
“I don't know Cindy but all we’ve got to go off of right now is the Crown room tomorrow. Let’s rest up and tomorrow it’ll all be over.” The two of us head back to our apartment and I get started on making us dinner.
“How does Toad-in-the-hole sound for dinner?” I ask matt while he looks over all of his notes that are stringed up around the apartment.
“That sounds like the best thing in the world right now.” He responds without looking up to me. I laugh softly and head into the kitchen.
[[Later That Evening]]Mathias and I decided to watch something on the telly while we enjoyed our food. We had the great british baking show on. Mathias was commenting on the things the chefs were doing wrong and yet he still can’t cook at age 54 you’d think he’d be able to cook. I grab our plates and start walking towards the kitchen when I see an envelope slip through our mail slot.
“Mathias there’s some mail. Will you go get it please?” I say while walking into the kitchen. I can hear a groan and then some footsteps. I begin to wash the dishes and clean up the kitchen when Mathias comes sliding into the kitchen.
“CINDY A LEAD CAME FROM THE DOOR!”
“Mathias Evergreen. Don’t shout in the house.” I wipe my hands off and walked over to him and the letter, it reads:
//Dear Evergreen house hold,
I will not be telling you my name but I am sure this information is very useful to you. Tomorrow the Crown and Jewels will not be destroyed in the Crown Room. Inside Big Ben at the very top we will be destroying the crown. I hope to see you then. Oh and don’t bring back up, or else.
//
“Bloody Hell Cindy. I want to believe this but what if it’s wrong?” Mathias says and then sits down at the table in disbelief.
[[Go to The Castle]]
[[Go To Big Ben]]“Mathias I think we should stick with what Martin told us. This could be Isaak trying to throw us off his tail.” I say and look at Mathias.
“You’re right. As much as I’d want to follow this. We can’t send anyone else there or something bad will happen if it is true? I dunno, it’s most likely a diversion” I nod and go back to cleaning up the kitchen. After a couple more hours of various food shows we say our goodnights and head to bed.
''January 3rd, 2100''
The next morning we wake up at eight in the morning. Mathias made tea and bought some scones this morning for breakfast.
“The new model is being deployed today in New New York, it’s a male this time around. Have they done one like that yet?” Mathias asks as he sips his tea.
“Not that I know of. Most of the models Elon wanted to create happened to be all females. I guess after Griffin died Xavier wanted to make more male models in the family company. I wonder if this one will make it through it’s trial periods?” I say and stand up, taking our plates of the table.
“Who knows, shall we head to the castle.” Mathias says in a goofy voice. I laugh and finish my tea. I grab my coat and hand Mathias his.
“I think we should. It’s time to catch a thief. Then who knows maybe we will go to New New York and solve their rose garden killer case.” Mathias laughs as we head down the stairs and waves one of the automatic cabs down. Once we get inside Mathias types in the address to the Castle and we make our way there. When we arrive there is black car out front. It must be Jackson and his squad.
[[Meet up with the squad]]I pause for a moment then I look at Mathias.
“Hold on.” I start going through my memories to see what Martin had said to us earlier. “We should go to Big Ben. Martin wasn’t hooked up to my lie detector when he told me the crown room so this could be our only lead.” Mathias nods and stands up,
“Then we should get to bed so we can get up early and head on over there.” Mathias says as he helps me clean up the kitchen. He never does this so he must be serious about going to bed for once. After the two of us clean up the kitchen we say our goodnights and get ready for bed. Tomorrow could be the end of our world if we picked the wrong location. I lay in bed for hours thinking about what we should do or how we should do it. I close my eyes for a moment and before I know it I have Mathias Shaking me awake.
“Cindy Lets go! If we want to get there and have breakfast at that cafe you like so much you need to wake up now!” He shouts and all I do is throw a pillow at him.
“You are terrible at waking people up. Lemme get dressed and then we can go.” I shake my head as he exits my room.
[[Take the Cab to Big Ben]]We get out of our cab and knock on the dark window of the SUV. It rolls down and Jackson looks at us.
“You two need some gear?” We brought vests and extra guns for the two of yas.” I hear the trunk pop open and I smile at Jackson.
“Thanks Jack we really appreciate it.” The two of us head to the back and put some gear on while the squad gets out of the car. After everyone is ready Jackson moves the SUV to a private location.
“Here’s what’s going on. A man named Isaak Savelievich is going to try and destroy the royal crown and jewels. He is going to frame America for this so it starts the next world war. The public doesn’t know just yet but it will happen if we don’t stop this now.” Mathias says and everyone nods in agreement. We all head up the steps of the royal palace before we head inside. It will never be as good as buckingham palace but this place serves as the new home of the queen and king. There are less servants staffed today than normal, it must be why they chose this day to do this.
After what feels like hours of just waiting for something to happen all of the police squad get messages.
“Damn it! That yankie lied to us!” Jackson shouts and looks at Mathias and I.
“What? How what’s going on?” Mathias says.
“The Vice President of America just destroyed one of the only things that survived through the war. The Royal Crown and Jewels.” Jackson says and my eyes go wide.
“How did he lie to me…” I stop my self and collapse to my knees. “It’s my fault… He wasn’t holding my hands when he told me Isaak would be here. I just believed him, I didn’t check again… It’s all my fault.” I can feel tears streaming down my face and Mathias gets down next to me.
“No Cindy it’s not your fault. It’s everyone's fault. You are not to blame.” Mathias says as he hugs me.
“Cindy, we should’ve questioned him with the machines in the first place. So we too are at fault.” Jackson says.
[[Chapter Seven]]''Chapter Seven: World War Four
Febuary 20th, 2100
Location: The bunker''
It’s been two week since we initiated an attack on America. World War Four is approaching and Fast. Many people have turned their back on America because they broke the treaty. Even after we tried to tell the world that it was the COA. They may have been founded in America but Isaak is proof that it is not just Americans that are working for them anymore.
The Criminals of America or we should really just be calling them Terrorists are this post. Got what they wanted. They forced the Vice President of the United States to destroy the Royal Crown and Jewels, then he was executed inside of Big Ben by a Different American. After the video was broadcasted Europe went into chaos. The Government had to do something so it came down to vote. Sadly we Voted that we bomb America, which is what the COA figured would happen. Most of the world was angry and so blinded by rage that they turned their backs on America. However the second we struck the country, they fired back with double the power.
Which really didn’t make them look good. We know that they didn’t do anything but there isn’t anything we could’ve done, and trust me we did.
Mathias and I are eating cold eggo waffles in our own personal bomb shelter. It’s not too safe to head outside right now and with America and Europe fighting back and forth Tesla has stopped my programs from running. I can’t connect to anything anymore and I need to sleep more often. I guess I’m just more human than I thought.
''I believe this is all my fault. I made the wrong choice. ''
[[The End->EndingCindy]]
We both got into our cab and we head over to Big Ben, it was a short trip from our house but it was still pretty early in the morning. Once we get close our cab stops and we walk into the Rose Cafe. We sit down and I look at Mathias.
“I brought the gun just incase. I figured it would be good to have one with us. Even if we don’t have the fancy electric stuff.” I lean back in my seat and smile at the waitress when she brings us our tea.
“Thank you.” I sip my tea and hum softly.
“That’s probably good. We don’t know what we are getting ourselves into.” Mathias smiles at me and takes a bite of his muffin. Once we finish eating it’s almost ten so we head out and start walking to Big Ben. We look around and then head inside and slowly make our way up the stairs to the top. As soon as we get closer we can hear voices.
“I wonder if those idiot detectives will show up.” Ah an American.
“Let's hope not. That letter was to drive them away. Hopefully Martin was able to trick them. Especially the robot. She is a thorn in my side.” This one’s Russian, must be Isaak
“Okay lets film this so we can get rid of the Vice President.” The American says, wait VICE PRESIDENT. I look at Mathias and he nods, we jump out of our cover.
“HANDS WHERE I CAN SEE THEM!” I shout as I pull my gun out and aim at them. I may be an old model but shooting is one of my features. Isaak’s frowns and pulls his own gun on Mathias.
“Shoot and your human friend dies.” Isaak says in a heavy russian accent. “Ashton get Jacob and the Crown ready. We need to film and execute now.” Isaak says while his gun stays trained on Mathias.
[[Shoot Isaak]]

I move my gun just slightly and squeeze the trigger. A loud banhg echo throughout Big Ben and Isaak falls over and drops his gun. I turn and aim at Ashton.
“I suggest that you stop this right now.” I say and Ashton pulls a knife out, shoot he’s going to kill the Vice President. I aim at Ashton and hit him in the leg twice which causes the American to cry out. Mathias and I run over to where Ashton is. Mathias pulls out a pair of handcuffs.
“Did you take those from Jackson?” I aks and all Mathias gives me is an evil laugh in return.
“Whaaaat he’s going to get them back one way or another.” Mathias says as he forces the injured man to stand.
“I have informed Jackson of the situation and he is having people sent to come assist us.” I say as I check the Vice President. “Jacob Wesly, are you awake.” The man slowly opens his eyes and looks at me. “Hi I’m Cindy, we came here to help you.”
“Oh Thank God, those people were going to kill me! That could start another war!” Jacob says as he stands up.
“Woah slow down, they had you on a sedative, so we need to get you to the hospital.” I smile and the american leans against me for support.
“Thank you, you two have done a great service to this world.”

I feel some kind of rage overcome me and I just pull the trigger. I know I shouldn’t have, I had dozens of warnings pop up. Telling me not to but before I knew it I just did it. Two Gunshots go off and Ashton falls to the floor, covering the Vice President in blood. It wasn’t a bad shot but I could’ve hit him better. Wait I only fired once. My eyes widen and I turn to look at Mathias who is holding his stomach. His tan coat turning a darker shade the longer I look at him. He looks at me before falling to the ground.
“Matt!” I shout and run over to him before I hear another gunshot go off. I fall on the floor next to him and I look at him. “Mathias stay with me… please.”
[[Look at Mathias]]
[[Look at Isaak]]''January 10, 2100
Location: The apartment''
Mathias and I are currently eating waffles. It's been over a week since we caught the bad guys and solved the case. Soon we have to go to America for a meeting with the president. But for now, we have another task to get through.
"You ready?" Mathias asks me as soon as he finishes eating.
"As I'll ever be." I look up at my partner and laugh. "You never wear white. It suits you." I say as I stand up.

"I promise on my faith that I will in the future be faithful to the lord, never cause him harm and will observe my homage to him completely against all persons in good faith and without deceit." After I repeat what the king said he takes the sword out of the scabbard.
“Cindy Evergreen please repeat after me, //"I promise on my faith that I will in the future be faithful to the lord, never cause him harm and will observe my homage to him completely against all persons in good faith and without deceit."// I kneel down next to Mathias and I can hear him trying his hardest to not laugh.
"I promise on my faith that I will in the future be faithful to the lord, never cause him harm and will observe my homage to him completely against all persons in good faith and without deceit." I repeat.
“I, King George of Europe, declare Mathias Darrington Evergreen and Cindy Evergreen Knight and Dame of my royal court.” He places the sword on either side of my head and does the same with Mathias. We both stand back up and bow to the king and queen.
“Thank you Sir.” I say
''“No, Thank you.”''
[[The End-> End but seceret]]I close my eyes as I drift off next to Mathias. I can hear some talking and the sound of something being cut. My motor skills are failing me so all I can do is listen to our world being destroyed. Then I hear a loud bang that echoes out through the tower. I shudder and look at my countdown clock. I wasn’t strong enough to stop the war. Now the COA has won and the Vice President of the United States is dead and it’s all my fault.
“I’m Sorry Mathias, I hope wherever you humans go is great. You deserve it.”
[[The End->EndingCindy]] I glance over at Isaak and reach for my gun. He is going to kill the Vice President still. I can’t have that even if I won’t be there to see it. I sit up and close my eyes as my purple blood spills out of the wound Isaak made. I want to see his face when I shoot him.
“Hey Isaak!” I shout which clearly startled him. “Have fun in hell.” I aim my gun and empty the chamber into his chest. His eyes are wide as he falls over and bleeds out on the floor. I let out a breath I didn’t know I was holding and fall back down. I inch closer to Mathias and close my eyes calling the police.
“999 what’s your emergency?” A sweet female voice says to me.
“Hello, I am here to report the missing crown and jewels. This is Detective Cindy and Mathias. Both of the thieves were shot and killed. Mathias and I have been shot. Please send someone to clean this up.” I say before hanging up and watching my timer tick down slowly.
“See you later Mathias.”

[[Chapter One->walk down the alley]]
//His eyes go wide and he bolts. I start to run after him when I hear Owen yell a new order at me,
“Conrad NO! Stay here!” he shouts at me from down the alley.
//
[[Chapter 2(Chase)->Bad path: CH 2]]
//The ride to the precinct was awkward, to say the least. Every time I tried to speak up, Owen would say.
“Shut your mouth robot.” or he would just growl at me. I caught the perp, didn’t I? Why was he so mad then, all I did was disobey his… his orders.
A loading circle appears in the lower right corner of my CPU and I look out the window as we fly over the superhighway.
My system’s rewarded me for catching the perp so they ignored the fact that I disobeyed a direct order for my current authoritative figure. //
[[Chapter 2(Stay)->Good Path CH2]]
//When we arrive at the station Owen parks around the back and we both get out.
“Lemme show ya around the place.” Owen smiles and walks into the precinct.
//
[[Chapter 2(shoot)->Shoot the Suspect]]
//My eyes widen. I heard what the Detective said but there's no way I’m letting the perp get away. I could be deactivated and replaced if I did something like that. I reach down for my gun and rip it from the holster. //
