Change (A Connor x Reader story based on Detroit Become Human)

Chapter Ten

"Now, I didn't just call you here for family counseling," Fowler looked at Y/n, "I'm sure you already know that what happened caused way more ruckus and problems than imagined."

"Yes, sir. I saw the reports that came in."

"I know you've been doing the best you can, Y/n. In fact, the results of your investigation have been better than expected since you were able to catch a deviant but, things are becoming more and more serious at an international scale."

"I understand... but, I know there's a way to solve this, I believe there's a solution for this."

Y/n looked over to Connor and her father but noticed that Connor had his eyes closed and his LED was spinning yellow. Her father, on the other hand, gave her a frown and crossed his arms. They both shared the same idea of what the Captain was about to say.

"Well... I'm afraid there isn't any more time left. You've met Special Agent Perkins, right?"

"Unfortunately..." her father grumbled.

"Well, then I guess you already know what I'm about to say..."

"Sir..." Y/n stared at the Captain who sighed and frowned at her.

"You're off the case. The FBI is taking over."

"But Captain!.." Y/n abruptly stood up, "you can't just do this now!"

"She's right, Fowler! We're on to something!"

Y/n looked back at her father and saw that Connor's eyes were now opened, he looked at her in slight alarm and her father looked just as shocked. She looked back at the Captain and tried to convince him to do something about the investigation.

"We just need a little bit more time, Captain! Please!"

"Y/n, I know you're upset but you don't get it," he tried to state calmly, "this isn't just another investigation, it's a f**king civil war."

"I know, Captain... I can understand that but-"

"It's out of our hands now... We're talking about national security here."

After Connor's uneventful conversation with Amanda, he wakes up to see that Y/n and Hank were talking with the Captain, he saw the Captain inform them that the investigation is being given to the FBI and both Andersons reacted negatively to it.

He saw Y/n ball her hands into a fist in frustration and Hank's patience snapped at the sight of his daughter's frustration along with his own.

"F**k that! You can't just pull the plug now! Not when we're so close!"

"You're always saying you can't stand androids! Y/n took it for your sake but now you're here too! Jesus, Hank, make up your mind! I understand Y/n's side but I thought you'd be happy about this!"

"Not if my daughter's gonna be unhappy about it!"

Y/n looked up to her father and gave him a tight-lipped smile, her hearing him say that meant the world to her and, although she was upset, that gave her something to be happy about. Her father's voice lowered and he calmed down a bit after looking at her.

"We're about to crack the case!.. I know we can solve it! For God's sake, Jeffrey, can't you back us up this one time?"

"Please, Captain... You have to trust us."

The Captain looked at the two Andersons and lightly shook his head no.

"There's nothing I can do. You're staying on homicide, Hank. As for you, Y/n, you'll be getting a new assignment soon."
