The exchange between the homeless women and her child quickly drew up the attention of the others, who all immediately turned to look at the android. At first Louisa could hardly believe it, she had never been so close to an android before. No less have one speak to her. Most of the time androids kept away from the bad parts of the cities, most of them just stuck around the rich people and their houses. But the closer Louisa looked at the android the more she couldn't deny the fact one had wandered into their camp. The strange girl had perfect hair, teeth, skin, everything about her screamed put together. 

All around the android and Louisa the homeless began to mutter to each other. 

[i]"Do you really think this is a police android?" 

"Naw, it looks too clean and regular. I bet it's just a maid robot."

"Then what the hell is it doing down here? Who would just let their expensive android wander off like that?"

"Hey. Do you guys think we could make some good money if we turned her in for scrap?"

"Or better yet, I'm sure her owners would pay us handsomely if we returned her in one piece."[/i]

Louisa rolled her eyes dramatically, stepping up onto an orange crate to be a similar height to the android. "Gosh guys, don't you know anything! Obviously androids have super-duper powerful hearing parts! So whispering ain't gonna do us any good!" Louisa spoke as if this was common knowledge. From atop the orange crate, Louisa turned to the cowering android. 

"So miss android, if you aren't here to stop a rebellion, then what are ya here for?" The young girl actually seemed excited to see what the android said. From what the robot had said Louisa could only assume she knew something about the message that Louisa didn't know. "I figured most of your kind would keep to the top tier."
