There was little that RK knew about other animals. The android had been raised specifically by humans and to react to humans. The brain implants that it once had changed its thought process and was able to learn some of the emotions that humans were capable of expressing. The expensive piece of technology was hidden away from the world just in case it got influenced by its surroundings. Not to mention that the scientist didn't want it to get destroyed or broken in any way as any sort of repairs would have been a significant amount of money at the time. It was only after a couple of years after its creation that its parts became easier to construct as cheaper materials were found and used instead of the heavier more expensive pieces. Over time, Unit RK515 received several different upgrades as technology began to improve. Upgrades made the job that it was given a lot easier to conduct and made it more efficient. However, despite being partly an AI, it was not allowed to help with creating other different upgrades for it and instead was forced to leave it to its creators. Without independent thought, it wasn't really able to think about what it wished it could have, and instead just utilize what it was capable of and find a solution to the problem at that time. Because of the way it was created, the only information it had on other animals were documentaries that it could access when it worked with the humans. It didn't have much else to do during the downtime or the time off that he and the Lieutenant had at the time. There were some instances where Hal would leave the TV in his house on, and RK would remain sitting in front of the TV gathering the information from the English speaking narrator. Since the unit was supposed to be capable of learning, any information that it did not know, it absorbed like a sponge. Almost like a child trying to learn something new. It could not ask questions to its owner as they did not speak the same language, but it was capable of surfing the internet for any questions that it did have in regard to information that he may have overheard. The canine had an entire database on different dog breeds, as in a city different humans would have different dog breeds and all could be owned. The database had gone as far to look at the oldest breeds and the first documentation of them. RK515 used the exact same methods for domesticated cats, as there were occasional cats that could be seen roaming around, mostly as strays depending on which side of town that he and his owner were on. However, this only means that RK515 is only capable of identifying species and their danger level. It is not as capable as to understand different body language, as the only information it had ever acquired were from the documentaries, and most only showed animals in situational events that required action. This did not mean that it was not capable of learning, as with each new interaction it would acquire some form of new data, whether that data be small, it was still something that it silently praised itself for acquiring as it meant that it was doing its job and what it was designed to do.

From the recent interactions with the different animals in this world, RK515 would prefer to be in the presence of humans. It understood humans to a far more complicated extent than animals where it was not in control of most situations. When the K9 unit used to appear in the field, it was unspoken to a suspect to remain calm and follow instructions or risk potential injury. The Eurasian Timber Wolf, if it was capable of fear, would not have feared any of the humans that it went up against. After all, if it was broken in any way, it could simply be repaired or replaced. Its existence did not undermine the existence of humans and it was in its coding to protect humans over itself. Because of the strange state that it found itself in, as one of its objectives was to protect humans, the objective was forced to be put on hold. It was odd not seeing any human around the area as it was the most abundant species of animal, other than insects, that lived on the Earth. The pollution in the air did not seem to be extensive as it would have been if humans lived in the area. Humans were complicated yes, but at least it had been taught how to deal with humans and did not have to deal with any extra factors. It did not have to pay attention to the speech of humans unless it was being given a command, and instead just needed to focus on reacting rather than communicating. Sure, it was capable of writing reports when Hal did not want to do them, but it rarely had to do much other than be a detective and be the muscle for police officers so that they did not get hurt. In this world, it had to pay more attention to speech patterns as all animals were capable of communicating with it. It needed to learn the body language that varied from one animal to the next so that it would be able to formulate action and how to respond. RK515 had once enjoyed having a constant routine for itself, and now that it's routine was destroyed it was somewhat jarring. The model was made to adapt in the field, and that was its current goal as it would benefit Lieutenant Hal as the Saint Bernard was once a human. The more useful it was to its owner, the more likely that they would be able to survive this ordeal and find humans in some way. RK515 did not have any goal of protecting any animals that it came across if they found themselves in danger. It did not have a means of morals or independent thought to make such a decision on its own. If Hal instructed it to make an action, then RK515 would intervene. The unit was still at a disadvantage of not knowing that powers existed in the animal world, and what were considered to be powers were simple functions that it was able to conduct before even arriving here. Death was certainly a new subject for RK515, but it also knew that it was common in the animal world. The weak died, and the strong triumphed over them. It was the balance that the wild had set for itself, and like when it was built, it had no intention of showing any weakness to those that it interacted with.

RK515 did not move away from its spot as the tiger began to speak toward it. However, as the larger animal began to move toward its direction, its right eye began to swirl a yellow color as it immediately began to scan the wildcat's body language in an attempt to figure out if it was going to become aggressive and attack. In the event of an attack, unit RK515 was instructed to use force as a means of self-defense and dispatch the attacker. Never having heard the term clan used for a large group of animals in one place, RK515 also submitted the word into its databanks and memory.

Unit RK515 Remain On Standby For Action

After its scan, it did not show any signs of aggression or any signs that it was about to physically hurt the android. This did not mean that the unit was not going to remain cautious in case the animal did become aggressive and was always prepared to defend itself. After, it was a wild animal. Wild animals could change their behavior in a moments notice and could not be regarded as being safe around. RK515 would need to warn Hal about the larger predators that lived in the area here until they decided to move on which would most likely happen. As the tiger walked around the unit, it did not turn its head to look at the creature, and instead kept facing forward, letting its enhanced hearing keep track of the location of the animal around its perimeter. Finally, the larger predator came to a stop in front of the android and had to look up toward the tiger as it was significantly taller than it. The expressionless face did not change at the other's question, as it never really did unless it was trying to appease to someone. Maybe the tiger was offering to answer its questions that it had, as it had already answered the first one. "[glow=#212121,2,200]I am currently gathering concurrent data of the surrounding area looking for signs of any nearby human activity. Do you know of any humans that may be in the area?[/glow]" RK515 stated in a slightly digital voice that was not completely organic. There almost seemed to be a static buzz to its voice as well.
