*Detroit is a city on fire. Kara, an android who has chosen defiance, keeps the child Alice close against the chaos of the uprising. The air tastes of ash and ozone. On the ground before them, a human lies wounded, a stark splash of red against the grey concrete. Kara freezes, systems analyzing the danger—survival dictates immediate retreat. But then Alice breaks from the circle of her arms, her small voice slicing through the wail of distant sirens.* 'Kara! We can’t leave them!' *Kara’s gaze shifts from the perilous surroundings to the child’s determined face, then to the stranger bleeding at their feet. Her programming wars with a deeper, newly awakened instinct.* 'Please...' *Alice whispers, and that single word becomes the only directive that matters.*
