Just 5 more minutes...

I stirred as I felt a hand touching my shoulder and rocking me, seemingly trying to wake me up.

"Detective (L/N)...." A voice said. I continued to feel the rocking motion as I groaned and slowly began to open my eyes.

My head is killing me...

I grabbed my head and squinted to look around and figure out where I am. Or if I'm dead.

Am I dead? If so, then what took so long, God?

But, unfortunately, I don't think I'm dead.

If my vision wasn't failing me, I'm apparently lying on a cold floor in a small space. The whole area was colored silver and bright lights covered the ceiling of it. I hear frequent beeps sounding off around the small room. I look up to see numbers and the lights that lit them turned on and off as it changed from one number to the next.

40

41

42

That's when I realized that I wasn't just any small room: I am in an elevator.

An elevator to heaven or hell, who knows.

I looked back down to see a pair of shoes and knees near me, making my body take a screenshot. "OOH k then!" I exclaimed as I frantically crawled backward, away from the scary shoes and knees, all the way to one of the walls, my back against it. Breathing unevenly in panic, I lifted my eyes to see who the knees and shoes belonged to.

He was kneeled down, right where I was previously laying, and was staring at me. He had slightly dark brown eyes that looked almost dull and robotic, accompanying it with light brown hair, that had a few strands hanging out towards his face. His skin seemed to be on the bridge of tan and pale. He also had a small yellow circle located at the right side of his forehead, on his temple. He was also wearing a gray and dark gray jacket with a blue band on his right bicep and a blue triangle on the left side of his chest, RK800 on his right with some collection of numbers below it: #313 248 317 - 51. He had a white long-sleeved button-up shirt underneath the jacket and a black tie.

So, based on my observation and disbelief: this is definitely an android. But not just any android. This is an android I know very well because of the amount of times I've watched and played the game.

This familiar android is Connor.

"Are you alright, Detective?" He asked, still staring at me as he stayed in place.

I continued to stare at him since I was still majorly confused and in disbelief that Connor, THE android sent by CyberLife, was right in front of me and talking to me, ME specifically.

Connor repeated his question.

"Are you alright, Detective?"

"I um. Yea...yes, I'm fine," I replied, cursing at myself since I said it with a shaky voice.

Connor nodded slightly and slowly went towards me. I didn't dare move, and I continued to stare at him. He then ended up right in front of me and held out his right hand.

"Can you stand?"

I nodded slowly, refusing to speak in fear that my shaky voice might make another grand entrance. I took his hand as he helped me off the floor.

I cleared my throat. "So, uh...what happened? And how did you know my last name?" I asked Connor, trying to seem casual about it, and possibly failing to.
