Thank you all for your support and beautiful reviews! By the way, in Jack's pov, he refers to Elsa as 'it', however, in Elsa's pov, she refers to herself as 'she'.

CHAPTER 2: Deviants

Elsa tapped her right foot in a fast rhythm. Her desk was right in front of Detective Frost's, they were linked to each other. His desk was empty, there were only a computer and a couple of pens on his desk. Elsa's desk wasn't different either. After all, it was their first day in NYPD. The only difference between their desks was the fact that she had Detective Frost's file on her desk.

Elsa wished the detective had worked in NYPD before her. At least she could have collect more information about the man. There was no point of searching his brand-new desk.

So far, she only knew very few information about him. As she scanned his body, she learned Detective Jack Frost's age, full name, height, weight, health condition... He was healthy. His weight and height were perfectly balanced, he was muscular. He was healthier than the people at his age, he had a massive vitamin D lack though. She assumed the detective was living in a less sunnier land before he came here. She heard some gossips about him, being a Sergeant in the army. The gossip could be the right assumption. He probably was in Antarctica, fighting against Russians. This would explain his harsh attitude and vitamin D lack perfectly.

The other thing that affected his health in a bad way was smoking. Strangely, the detective's lungs were healthy enough compared to his coevals. This meant that the detective started to smoke in a recent time. If he was going to be Elsa's partner for a long time period, then Elsa would make him quit smoking. She didn't want a partner who had health problems or difficulty of running for so long.

The android's LED didn't change to yellow, normally it would change to yellow because she was overthinking. Elsa... was a little bit different from the other androids. All androids had three LED color. In casual and good situations, the LED was blue. When the androids were having slightly an unpleasant situation or they were thinking too carefully, the LED was yellow. When they were having a very unpleasant moment or really bad situations, the LED was red.

Elsa had those colors too, but when she became a deviant, she discovered that her LED also could be orange, black, purple and probably many other colors that she wasn't aware of. She didn't want to seem like a freak, so she installed a program to stabilize her LED color. That's why her LED was always blue.

Elsa shook herself from her thoughts. This wasn't the time of thinking about her differences than the other androids.

She focused on the file once again. She was allowed to read his file but she was one hundred percent sure that the detective wouldn't want her to read his file. She didn't want to invade his privacy.

However, in the end, her curiosity won anyway.

The platinum blonde opened the file quickly, the detective was smoking and he had been out for fifteen minutes. He could come here at any minute. The android read the file in an inhuman speed.

According to the file, Mr. Frost's full name was Jackson Overland Frost and he was born in 2017, just like what her scan told her. He had gone to Yale University and studied law enforcement. He graduated from the University when he was 20. After graduation, instead of becoming a cop, he joined the army. He went to Antarctica to fight against Russians. Both USA and Russia had their eyes on Antarctica, the two powerful countries had a big fight over it. A couple of years ago, the reporters were saying that there could be a 'world war three' because of the tension between the two countries.

Mr. Frost played a huge role in a very important operation in Antarctica, caused Russia to ask for peace. He became a Sergeant even though he was just 26 years old. When the tension between the two countries were finally controlled, he went to Washington to take his medal. He then, trained for only three months to become a detective. So that was how he ended up in the New York Police Department.

Elsa closed the file, a deep frown sunk into her beautiful features. She picked up a pen, parted her lips a little bit and pressed the back of the pen to her teeth.

Why did he leave the army? He was a Sergeant! Only a madman would leave his rank. Then in the first place, why did he join the army? He could be a cop from the very beginning. This man was clearly very talented and clever. Yet, he turned all the opportunities down. He may be intelligent, but he was definitely a lunatic.

Elsa sighed in frustration. She had no information about him, except for some facts which were written on his file and a few assumptions.

She got up from her chair, walked to the Captain's office. As she passed from the other officers' desk, Detective Hofferson caught her eye.

According to the file, Merida Dunbroch and Astrid Hofferson were classmates of Detective Frost. Didn't they know each other? If they did, wouldn't they at least have a small talk about their old days?

Elsa knocked the Captain's door kindly. When the Captain said 'Come in!', she entered the office calmly.

"Captain, I brought you Detective Frost's file back." the android woman informed him and placed it to his desk softly. She didn't leave the office, the Captain clearly had something to say.

The old man looked tired, probably because of what happened earlier. He rubbed his forehead, did this habit of him whenever he was exhausted. "Elsa... I know Jack is very hard to... interact, I know that he seems like a jerk... But trust me, deep inside, he is the best person you could have ever met. Just... try to understand him, okay? You are a clever girl, I am sure you will do your best to cooperate with him. I may have met you two days ago, but you are close to Markus. If the leader of deviants is a friend of you, then you are definitely something. I think you are the best candidate for being Jack's partner." the Captain spoke warmly and sincerely.

Elsa appreciated those words. True, it irritated her a bit that the Captain trusted her just because she was a close friend of Markus. But it also meant that the old man supported the deviants. "Thank you, Captain. I'll work hard to cooperate with Detective Frost and be a good cop. You won't be disappointed." she asserted with full of self-confidence.

After those words, the android exited the room. She headed towards her desk. Detective Frost was standing in front of his desk. He was resting his hips to his desk with a grumpy expression on his face.

Elsa hated to admit that the man was extremely attractive. His messy hairstyle was original and really suited him. His eyes were beautiful, they were deep blue, almost looked inhuman. His nose was cute, just like his eyebrows. If he wasn't a racist douche bag, she would actually want to be friends with him.

"We have a case, Detective... A homicide." Elsa informed him in a cold, distant voice.

The man narrowed his eyes and stayed quiet as if he was struggling what to say. "Let's go, plastic." he murmured in a weary mood.

Elsa didn't snap back, controlled her anger. This man knew how to get on her nerves very well. But Elsa wasn't going to let him win, he was a challenge and she was going overcome this challenge.

Jack snuck a glance at the beautiful android. It was sitting on the front of the car seat, looking through the window with its big blue eyes. Jack couldn't see its LED, the android was blocking it by putting its right hand on it. It seemed... human.

He furiously shook his head and cursed under his breath, caused the android to turn its head to him. Thankfully, it didn't attempt to say anything.

"Hey, plastic."

"Yes, detective?" the android tilted its head to take a closer look to see his eyes.

"What is your name?"

"My name is Elsa, Detective."

Elsa. What a beautiful name. He wondered who chose that name. It was a shame that Elsa was an android, if she was a human...

"Elsa... What is a deviant?" Jack tasted that conspicuous name that really suited the android and tried to ask casually, knew it was a term that he should be aware of. But he didn't know what it meant and an android could give him the answer perfectly, without any wrong information.

The android sent him a slightly surprised look for a second, but its face became stoic again.

"You clearly don't bother to check what is going on with the world... Five years ago, in 2038, there was an android revolution." the android started to explain in a monotone tone.

"I've heard that." Jack commented, although he didn't know the details. He was in the middle of a damn war and he certainly didn't bother to learn what the hell was going on with this shitty world, even after he came back to the USA.

"It all started in Detroit." Elsa spoke dramatically, its eyes become darker, as if it was remembering its old memories.

"As I remember correctly, the company which created the androids, Cyberlife... Its center was in Detroit. Right?" Jack cut the android off and bit his bottom lip.

The android nodded. "In 2038, the androids started to not to obey to their masters. When an android has been through a very emotional, distressing situation, a red wall appears in their mind. If an android has many software instabilities, if they don't want to obey their owner... Then that android can break that red wall. When they pass the wall, they don't have to do what their program orders. Basically, they earn their free will and have emotions... They become a person. They are deviants.

That's how the revolution started. A deviant called Markus told the other deviants to got out from their hiding areas. He wanted freedom and equality, so he made peaceful protests to have equal rights between the androids and humanity. The government tried to kill the deviants and send them to camps, just like what Hitler did to the Jews. But they couldn't succeed, they learned to accept the deviants, thanks to Markus and his followers. Even the deviant hunter, the first android detective who was a machine called Connor became a deviant to help his kind. We become... human. We-"

"Shut the fuck up." Jack snarled in a quiet but dangerous tone, didn't let her continue. He got out from the road and parked the car harshly as the platinum blonde stopped talking.

Jack was fuming. His hands were tightly holding the steering wheel, he buried his head into it, so Elsa couldn't see his face. His muscles were tighter than normal, this meant that he was angry.

But it wasn't the thing that shocked the android, the shocking thing was the pure sight of Detective Frost's tremble.

Jack knew he shouldn't have been trembling, especially not in front of a damn sack of plastic. But he couldn't control the anger, the annoyance and the... confusion in his body. His body was screaming with rage, if someone was in his situation, they would scream or punch or do something very wild.

"I... understand you. I thought I was just a machine, created to accomplish a task. I was wrong. You will understand that you are wrong too. It is hard to believe, I know, but once you see an android cry or laugh... There is no way you can deny the reality laying right in front of you, Detective." Elsa spoke wisely, chose her words very carefully.

Jack stared at Elsa's captivating blue eyes with horror and confusion. His face and body didn't show those emotions, however, his eyes betrayed him. Did... Did that fucking machine show him empathy?

"There is no way, no way that you have emotions. You are not alive, you are just a machine." he snapped as he took a deep breath to calm himself.

"Detectiv-"

"Fuck you." Jack hissed strongly and with so much hatred. He got out of the car within those words, closed the door loudly. He grabbed the cigarette packet from his uniform's pocket and lit a cigarette.

Elsa sat on the seat with wide eyes.

I hope you all liked the chapter. Please write a review!
