Jess staggers in Tuesday morning. Her knee is getting better, she's no longer wearing the brace. All that rest actually helped.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSAcV3oZHP
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHykVwaNXi2
"You're a little late." Bella says, standing right at the entrance booths.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbPPtUN2qa
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3XdaoA8s6
"I'm sorry."83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVy6czu3ZR
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDAOY9P3cI
Douglas had to go somewhere, Bobby went who knows where and she doesn't care, fuck that prick, and Bailey with Maeve gave her a lift. They dropped her off a blocks short though of work, she had to walk the rest of the way. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddZRQarvZH
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74ylQwzCMO
"Anyway, Jess, uh. I, Brianna and Joe want to plan to hang out after work and we'd like you to come with us."83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxWSsNb91K
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xWdgQR3mI

83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglqrM6n9V1
"We haven't figured that out yet. So, will you come with us?"83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJIok5uZkT
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2tGxZpOwD
She doesn't respond. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlZkffegNo
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXbDA0NBkM
"You look a little tired."83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6KXdaHoGj
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfn2qbWg20
She just wants Bella to leave her alone. Her leg may be better, but it was a shit weekend. That asshole Bobby seriously thinks it's okay to attempt to have sex with her though, when she was tied up no less. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiV0WNcHKjc
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyrtS1iany
Her phone goes off, and she checks it. It's two seperate messages. Maeve and Bailey giving her their numbers and Bailey also giving her Bobby's and to call or message her if there is anything she needs. A little unsure what help they think she would want from them.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuJQqcILY9
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmEy3z0X36
Their proably burner numbers also. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTAdaJPDfm

"Please put your phone away, Jess."83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUlDL0YEM9
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhey2QJdoD
She looks up, Maggie walking past. Anna following behind her. "You okay? You look distracted." Lou speaks up. His right behind Maggie.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6Xlf8mwgo
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLlMjTTuNA
Jess puts her phone away and looks to Bella, ignoring Lou. "What do I have to do today?"83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTTpVcRNuC
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3M54zOMUw
"You're scheduled on the main floor. Do you want to come out with us?"83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DzszA4cbI

"I'll think about it." 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCtEcSR8bF
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi36YeYBSHI
And the conversation ends there. She looks over seeing Princess lined up beside Dreamer and Cuddles. She hasn't seen Cuddles before without his teddy bear suit on. He has slicked back hair and has shiny clothing on. He looks like his meant to be a boy band member. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdjbK2iI01
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgb0jDShtT
Guess his multi-purpose. Put him in the suit for the kids, take it off and immediatly he appeals to the teens. He proably sings and dances the same as Princess. She hasn't seen him onstage though yet. She's only been here one month so far.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ypbGpPfyZ
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvI3UFZ1MPo
Dreamer is for the nursery, play zone for toddlers and some kids.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspFPj24Wd1
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡODwjttjgC3
And there is some generic androids who work the customer service desk. That's not alot of androids.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZaKCTwGgT
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0AUvnnZjf
A few hours pass, it's a very slow day suprsingly. Not alot of vistors. Jamie and her toddler sister, Jade nor Jamie's friends have shown up. Where are they? Did they go to school today? Question is also, is Jade in daycare somewhere?83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyliwhXnfW

"Hey."83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBHH2lW1iN
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzRncoeAMs
Jess turns to look beside her, Ren leaning beside her. She looks tired and a tad dishelved this morning. Hair kind of a mess, uniform put on quickly. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQF8GK5PfH
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgEjYCENHk
She's sucking a lollpop. "You're late. Much later than I was." Jess tells her. "Is that your breakfast?"83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtrr46MqBl

"If you say so, Jess."83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdcu26szkl
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTFh6RarA9
Ren rubs her eyes a bit, yawning. "That detective lady who came to see you. Did you know she actually hates me? I smashed her previous patrol car with a baseball bat. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKak7dhZnu
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7LgxqgXFY
It's actually why I was in the hospital."83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomYOUrS8mK
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9x7eQKgTy
"Oh..."83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0LV8n0Ci0
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYw6Gmi5Bsb
"Yeah." Then Ren yawns heavily. "Catch you around, friend. Later." And she gives Jesse a small fist bump, walking off. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUPA1sRL6J
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYoeorXdn3
Jesse's left standing alone and Bella slides up beside her. "That was... oddly weird."83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0PnFc7CV5
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKRCDusfr0
"She was injected with her meds at the hospital. It's why she was so late and so... calm."83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXEPD1EWfP

83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ELjvAHRC4
"Does today feel really weird to you, Bella?"83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpOTiCusQ2

"Actually, yes. It does."83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡarsP03ZqAQ
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY83Osvc7dc
When Bella's walkie talkie comes to life. "One moment, Jess." 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8ZnTAktmR
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ87rqzgfk2P
She takes a few steps away, talking to someone. "Damn it." Bella says hanging up. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSJD38AOAP
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNMVoWL8U4
"Everything okay, Bell?"83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vISWDUa9w

"No, no. It's fine! I actually... like it. That was Joe. We got two problems. One is turn out is low today for Princess show. There's virtually no guests here. Very few tickets have been sold and the other is Princess is broken I think? She's not responding to commands.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8oTXKTlrO7
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0OAkV9pO9
Joe's got her in the warehouse trying to resolve it. I need to go talk to Maggie."83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvxqdjg0BF
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwF930tjt39
And Bella leaves her alone, heading to the elevator. Jess turns around, looking at the stage. She could... get up there for them.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKA4BnxaTt
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RO1o0TOJJ
They hire stand in human entertainers to masquerade as the androids in a crunch, but there is no way one would make it here on such short notice. Perfomance is in half an hour.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcRVxNVdGX
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOty5HwCWlJ
She could do it for them, they just don't she... it would save them the embarassment of no performance, but ticket sails is not something she can resolve. Unless... 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sfyN4feqQ
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYqD8rLDtg
She slips backstage, finding it unlocked and slips into Princess dressing room, turning the lock.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7guP0mK6ge
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HNTLzTtup
She pulls out her phone and dials a contact.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLXoTVr2EL

"Guest turn out at work is slow today and the performance android, Princess is broken or something."83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfgGRcGIIk
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSzNqpA6pK
She leaves out the Princess is sentient? part. Is she really broken or just faking it, not wanting to work? She hasn't spoken to Princess so who knows.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7usRKb5RwY
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0zH1tV8jI
"So you need what?"83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATwey3khzT
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvqqvLiyo3

"Douglas left out a fair bit about you then."83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2tGbHdk27
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ElXUoQZDM
"So, a crowd? And how do I pay you?"83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV18tkhVT8B
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yT2sJrUWr
"You're Douglas' informant. He fits the bill for anything you related. He wants his bussiness and old life back."83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhCCgFXi1d

"He'll pay, Jess. I'll get you a crowd. Get dressed or whatever you need to do." 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFqUAGoiUu
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCXWnhXQSa
And the call ends. Jess places her phone on the dressing room table, entering the wardrobe, picking out an outfit, taking a Princess wig off a stand in the corner, does her makeup and removes her glasses, inserting her performance contact lenses. They color change. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSsB0MrT9VG
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0rKVp1oTV
She logs into the app for them on her phone selecting the shiniest, bright silver that resembles Princess eyes. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGidN9XIAq
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcx3H8XZWYq
She looks like the spitting image of Princess, can hardly tell herself she's not her. Her vocals will be diffrent, but the other human entertainers on call who play Princess don't completly sound like her either so it's fine.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GC9zciaKm
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJggO9DHybC
There is a knock on the dressing room door and she shovers her phone under some of the makeup supplies, answering the door. Time to play the part.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvZ9bOUrJo
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIh0cAzazdB
It's one of the stage hands. "I thought you we're broken, but the lights on in here. Princess, showtime is in 12 minutes and counting. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7GmDnAdlU

83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUJui95aNN
"Carly. Come on." And Carly takes her by the hand, dragging Jess all the way to a lift underneath the main stage. She's so convincing, Carly doesn't know she's human or realized her skin is real.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9V2b2oRUrC
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalWy5etWMa
Princess skin feels very real, but there is a slight sytheticness you can feel in her touch.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnM9cTax2a
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6biAW8xnMM
Jess stands there waiting for showtime, Carly walks up placing a microphone set on Jess head, positioning it. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNcmcP7Mjn
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuwRMy3rc6
"Thank you, Carly."83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ756mxzhZPf

Carly looks tired. What is with everyone today? Carly's tired and hasn't realized she's human.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqs94S0iedH
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgkoeMWASG
She hears music and the lift platform starts to rise, raising Jess up. There is smoke and lights everywhere.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNU5l7SnHyb
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS33PwnktRG
She sees a few extra are present in the crowds. It's not hundreds, but give or take, it's about 30-50 more guests.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWOANfevpo
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEKirPi71x
Thank you, Bailey. It's time, and she starts Princess song, hitting every line in sync with the music and dancing perfectly. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWs2lmIZpCP
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeI0XIdEiBA
It wasn't to long ago she was doing this, she did before she moved. During the performance, she sees Bella in the crowd looking up at her, phone out. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kUVMoD4lq
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡef6NgJhcDN
Is she filming her? Bella lowers her phone and walks away. She does the ending pose minutes later, the smoke rises more and the lift starts to descend. She can vaguley hear Carly on stage above, thanking everyone for coming. It's a slow ride down and she sees Maggie, Ren, Joe and Bella waiting for her. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtwn1IwN11
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsW9ZDYihk
She straightens up and Joe steps towards her, shining a light in her eyes. She tries not to react.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtJ4Pe5B2P
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQmGqHfmek
"I go to lunch, and you call me back urgently for this. There is blue eyes behind, these are color change contacts. Your performer is human.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGVmpR9Lcf
The real Princess is proably still in the warehouse. I'll check." He says, taking a step back. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWWnFh0h0d

"Who are you? I didn't have time to call a replacement in." Maggie says slowly, unsure what to make of this. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiuF2f1cqa4
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthOBi4Voaq
"I should be thanking you because you totally saved my- our bacon. But, who are you?"83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJ6cvBTaVU
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DifFWkisy
Jess gets the idea to toy with them a bit. "I'm sorry, Miss Stiefvater. I'm afraid I don't understand the question."83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtRD7z311w
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFSWiEX6qv
She's taken back a bit and trying not to laugh. "Very funny." Bella says annoyed, trying to keep it annoyed, but then bursts out laughing. Joe shakes his head, cracking a small grin. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ta5y4dwe8
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60MfLERbvj

83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFIrJrOkg5
"Okay, this funny. But enough, seriously. Who are you?" Maggie breaking down, laughing harder. Jess removes her contacts, putting them back in their little case and puts her glasses back on that we're hiding inside her costume. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIvSqgPl8E
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MCo2lF9Ji
"Wait." Bella says, looking closely, and Jess pulls off the wig revaling her hair up in a bun. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtZx20G4ah
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxi2z6McO5
"Jesse's an android? Why would an android have been in a mental hospital?" Ren asks, speech now slurring. "Uh, Bella. Can you take Ren back outside, please?" Maggie requests. Joe leaves with them.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDysolD4X0
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBge8GzRwLP
"My office, please. Ten minutes, put the security guard uniform back on." And Maggie walks away from her. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxaLZq3c0FG
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDSG506GOZ
Jesse returns to Princess dressing room, changing, removing the makeup, collects her phone and neatens up the dressing room, then heads up to Maggie's office. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTXbr0F8cJ

83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwmudrcVf9

"Proably, Ren." Jess laughs a little and Maggie has an awkard expression on her face. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIwkCykcea

"Maggie, I'm sorry-"83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcnFoxyk8u

83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCAVCubA47
Maggie nods, saying nothing and Jess leaves the building. She's outside waiting near the taxi zone when she sees a parked car, dark blue parked a short distance away. Someone sitting inside. It's hard to make out who it is, the sun glaring. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoHooKUda7
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuygvMF81Dm
She pulls out her phone, texting. There's a group chat set up with Johnthan, Maeve, Bobby and Douglas. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnH57gGD67Z
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxYoGPBe7w
Jess: Are one of you stalking me right now?83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkK3DH85HgZ

Joththan: Read me the license plate.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWa8bXEpsqy
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCKoDw6FT6
And she texts it to him. A moment later, he sends a screenshot. It's a file from inside the police network. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNnmHJ2w4j
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTjFtuQH1Ge
A photo of Detective Clara Johnson, and the work cars registered to her, a work phone number - Desk and mobile, and other imformation.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDb6shHEg6

Douglas: Why is she following you?83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvh4xoNKGWV
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2am79w8sx
Jess: I don't know, maybe cause the Hospital reported the Merge in my system to them, but as it was weeks later, it was not an arrestable offense.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcOqPQHrL0
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHE0OA3s56
Douglas: This is bad.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwFOq9aPpb

83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYB3DhTVAG
Maeve: There's nothing you can do. Just go home and about your life as normal. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Z8U0R0tET
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBU5JK5aBwh
She'll eventually stop tailing you when they realize there is nothing they can get you on. They'll think it was a one time incident and you proably bought it one time off the street. As long as it's not actively in your system if you're in hospital or somewhere one day, you'll be just fine.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqF5lWP4qyc
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RRJUhdh12
Jess: If you don't fuck up my life for me.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfvkJ0P0D5

Johnthan: I already warned you once, his a paying client. Don't make me repeat myself twice.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qCcOZ8NDC
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeokIxPdrH6
Jess: Wait, could they hack my phone?"83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVBlGKlIBp
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfZZZJDefQ
Johnthan: They won't be able to. I installed spyware and encryption on your phone. 83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVSsN1E517z
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qYZY4YwGE
They won't be able to break it, I promise you.83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9cm3z0jhd

And then Douglas is offline.
