032 | Eversen

The sky was retiring for the day as it began to set as part of its daily routine. A car drove with its headlights on and it's three occupants kept quiet during the commute. The coordinates took them by the shores of Detroit and Canada. At a distance, the CyberLife tower can be easy for its tall structure rivaled the Empire State Building. Its appearance was godlike and seemed to want the city to know who runs it.

The area they entered was the nicer part of town and it's not because the people were friendly there. Instead, the richest of the rich occupied these streets. Connor's memory clicked as he remembered the case with the artist, Carl lived in the very same area. He took note of this as they drove further into the area that soon became forest-like with all of the imported plants from more greener parts of the United States. After the car drove up a small man-made hill before them was a modern building. The structure was illuminated by bright white lights and the company name shined along the side of the building.

The font was similar to CyberLife Sans, which made Connor reevaluate the logo. Hank drove the vehicle to the front where some assistants waited for their arrival. As the car came up to the curb in front of the building, it became evident that the supposed humans were actually androids and these were not of CyberLife production. They appeared human-like but visible parts of mechanical components were located on various parts of their body. The two androids bowed at the three and gestured for them to follow the two inside. Once inside it was like entering another world or time of day for the environment was beautifully lit with daylight--a complete contrast from the cold winter night they left outside.

The company was also the opposite of CyberLife for the building's exterior and interior was strategically decorated with the secondary color green in comparison to the primary color blue. Accents of natural wood were prominent in the architecture along with the clean sleek look of glossy white walls. Their main focus appeared to be nature related, but what could that mean? The small group surpassed security and the scanners and arrived at cylindrical glass elevator lined with wood flooring. One of the androids dialed a two digit number into the keypad and scanned its hand for approval. The elevator then ascended smoothly up numerous levels. Erika looked out the rear side of the elevator and admired the hanging displays of trees that hung from the main lobby. It seemed impossible to do such an unnecessary thing, but the result was breathtaking. A chime echoed throughout the small space it notified its occupants that they have arrived at their destination. The two androids left the compartment first and stood outside with their bodies bent in a bowed state. Hank, Connor, and Erika walked out with suspicious looks on their faces as they exit the elevator.

After a long walk through a grand hallway lined with displays depicting androids, they were brought to a staircase that led to an isolated room made of glass that levitated above all the floors by being attached to the ceiling. Soon after climbing the set of stairs the two androids walked ahead of the three and opened the double doors in a synced manner.

As the three entered the room, in their sights was a figure seated parallel to them. Its back was turned to them and held a glass of wine. In a powerful manner, the figure swirled the fermented grapes in the glass before taking a long sip of the spirit--then placed it down on a tray that an android held and turned around in the sleek chair. To their astonishment, the figure turned out to a woman with a menacing grin. She stood up from her seat and was followed by another set of androids.

The woman held herself with exquisite elegance and possessed a high standard demeanor. Every inch of her was in every sense beautiful, but that was to the average human eye. Connor looked at the woman and scanned her to grab information on this mysterious company's CEO.

Reina Satchell
Age: 31
DOB: June 14, 2007
Height: 5"10
Weight: 131 lbs.
CEO of Eversen

Connor blinked as he processed this new information with those that he uncovered earlier that day. Satchell was a colleague of Kamski and were both students at the University of Colbridge. Both were beyond exceptional students--both aiming to create an innovation, a breakthrough in human history.

"Are you Ms. Satchell?", Hank started to question the woman. She nodded and sent the androids out of the room so that it was only her and the three detectives.

"Who would like to know?", she smiled charmingly and looked at her guests. The woman walked over to a liquor cart and grabbed a bottle of a dark caramel color.

"Brandy?", she questioned in Hank's direction, as much as the old man would like to say yes. He refused the offer.

"Ms. Satchell, we're from the DPD and we'd like to ask you a few questions", he made his way to the woman with Erika and Connor in tow. The middle-aged woman looked at them and nodded as she proceeded to walk towards a set of glass doors to a personal elevator.

"Let's take the questioning outside shall we", the three detectives followed her into the elevator that moved sideways and down the main elevator shoot, the clear glass allowed its occupants to view images of various rooms in the facility that underwent production of android components and limbs. Everything seemed transparent, a tactic to make things appear normal, but was that really the case? The four individuals soon exited the elevator and to a pristine lab with prototype mechanical limbs on workbenches and a closed off area with containers filled with a blue substance.

"Blue blood,,

As they passed these rooms the woman stopped and turned around to the detectives. Her eyes reflected those of a lioness ready to kill her prey.

"So what is that you would like to know", this was all she stated in a high-level tone.

"What is your affiliation with the Experimenter, Conan Earnest?", Connor questioned in a direct manner.

Wow, this one was short, but I felt that it needed to be cut off here. I hope you liked the chapter as usual and I'm curious what do you think about Gal Gadot aka Wonder Woman, portraying Riena Satchell? Also, what could her affiliation be with Kamski?? Leave your thoughts in a comment or just let me know what you thought of the chapter in general! Thank you again! Each comment is very much appreciated!
