Servant Android 015-97, or nicknamed Maxwell by his owners, was one of the few and latest Servant Bots that were available. As they were only a couple years old, they were very expensive, but one particular rich family was able to afford him, and two older version ones. Instead of a laid back environment, doing things once in a while, the family was very stern, and made them do pretty much everything.

The two others weren’t scared of them, and protested, while Maxwell watched them get scolded, and eventually broken from a distance. He, however was scared, and took every order quickly, no matter how much he wanted to kill them, or even have his time ended. Let’s just say he was starting to drift into insanity throughout the months.

When they were moving to a new house to give the daughter they had a better view of what life was actually like, it wasn’t surprising that Maxwell did all the actual work. Taking the luggage to the car and to the house, unpacking things. He was going to be chopping down a tree to fit their pool the next day, since they wanted a full charge for that.

After what seemed like hours of work, Maxwell was finally commanded to stop, and go with them to meet their new neighbors. Whenever they went somewhere that didn’t have appointments, they always took him with them to show off or help. Of course showing off to neighbors seemed perfect to them. Being ordered to put his hands together and only introduce with a name, they went door to door greeting both next door neighbors. Then, it was the house across from them.

Maxwell wouldn’t be confused about these neighbors if he didn’t sense other androids nearby, and definitely more than one. That was a feature every single one had, it was that they could sense others of their kind around them. Did this household have androids too? Would they sense him? He was sort of... scared, in a way. But his feelings didn’t matter.

It’s been around... maybe a month since Max was free from his mind control, and he’s starting to get used to life once again. He moved a couple towns away, settled in a hefty apartment, and tried to get himself back together. Surprisingly, he was able to get into his bank account, which his company was using to hide money from others, and he had quite a lot to work with. Instead of having overgrown roots of dark brown, and purple below that, he went shorter and completely teal. He got and wore different gauges, got some fresh clothes... Oh yeah, and he burned the pins from the combined companies. Violently.

All he’d been doing now was trying to expose these companies. Maybe the government was fond of them, he didn’t know, but it was unethical. There had be some way to stop it.

But for now, he’d take a break.

Moving to a new town meant being even closer to the nearest retro game store, which is why he chose that town! He didn’t have to waste gas or take bus to bus to get where he needed to go. Just a short ten minute drive and he was there. What he didn’t know or want, however was anybody he interacted with for that year to be around, and that’s what exactly happened.

Max doesn’t even know how long it’s been since he lost control of himself. Maybe six months? Nah, probably more. But that wasn’t the point. The point is, the scientists that controlled his body teamed up with another company that built androids to use each others’ technology. The whole android tech was pretty impressive to him, but the uses were not at all great. He was forced to accept it, though, as much as he wanted to protest.

Why was this relevant to him? Well, there were apparently a group of runaway androids that needed to be taken back to the company, and he was sent to get them. His every move and word being controlled, he was taken somewhere unknown to find and spy on said group. It took a little bit, but the controllers recognized a couple, and made him stop and look in secrecy.

As this was going on, Max’s mind was screaming. Thoughts were the only part of him he could control. Not even his expression could be helped, and it was more blank with a tad bit of anger

     Mack had never liked the shit that androids went through, it was something he didn’t like as a kid. As a child, he treated the one in his home as another person, he didn’t know better. The problem was, it went on as he got older. Eventually, his parents started scolding him for not treating them as they wanted. Scolding turned to fighting as he tried to give his reasoning, until he had enough.

     In the middle of one night, he packed necessities and ran away from his house, leaving no notes to signify he was gone. He knew it would probably fail, and he’d be in trouble, but he had to get away for at least a little bit.

     A week later, and he still wasn’t found. Surprising. He basically walked around alleyways and small stores, so he just continued doing that. It seemed to be working, and he was able to get food for a while with the money he had. A win-win situation really.

     What was fusion? Was he able to try it? This was something that has been on Vein’s mind all morning. All that he heard was that it was two gems merging together into one being. It sounded... interesting, being a new person- er, gem. But what would it involve? Would he get hurt? And if he even wanted to try, who would it be with?
