Ok, I know I have to be working on my other fics, but I wanted so badly to upload this one. It will be about the movie of 2009. The start is a little similar to the movie.

Chapter 1

Toby was looking at the front and yawning. He was at his school, looking at a video that was showing how Metro City was created. His dad had told him several times before the city's story, so Toby already knew it. He was falling asleep, when suddenly the lights of the classroom turned off, making Toby gasp and sit up.

"Ok students. Pop quiz time!" exclaimed his professor happily. However, the others weren't any excited about it and groaned. Toby was an exception, as he smiled and grabbed a pen. The desks were illuminated, revealing the quizzes, most of them being multi-option. Toby kept smiling.

'This will be a piece of cake' he thought and looked at the problems. He wrote the answer for the first question, and more quizzes popped. He answered them, each time faster and faster, until he was finished in less than 2 minutes. He raised his hand to get the attention of his professor, who was reading a Math book. When he saw Toby's hand, he asked. "What's the problem Toby?" Toby got up and took out a card from his desk.

"None sir. I just finished and would like to leave" he replied and gave the professor his card.

"Well, I suppose there isn't much of a point in you staying" the professor said and looked at the front, just to see Toby at the door.

"Good luck to you guys" Toby said and closed the door behind him just in time as a student threw a book towards him, crashing towards the door. As soon as Toby got out of school, he walked towards his bicy-jet and climbed up, starting to pedal. He received it from his dad on his fourteen birthday, and really loved the invention as he arrived home faster. He was pedaling way home when he suddenly heard a strange noise. He knew what the noise meant, and pushed a small red button on one of the handlebars. A small radio appeared and a male voice started speaking.

"Hi son, how was school today?" he asked.

"Fine. Mustachio made us a pop quiz, but I'm sure I will get a 100" said Toby proudly.

"Ok Toby, but you have to keep studying. Onward and upward!" Toby sighed as he kept pedaling. Suddenly he heard an explosion coming from the other side of the radio. Toby stopped in mid-air.

"Dad, what's wrong?" he asked worriedly. However, he didn't get any reply as the signal was cut off.

'I have to go to the Ministry of Science and check what happened' he thought and pedaled the opposite way. When he reached the place, he got down of his vehicle and ran inside. He followed the noises of more weak explosions and arrived to a big room. He saw a big robot with some other small ones attached to it's body. They were firing towards some scared scientists. Between them, Toby's dad was there, along with one of his friends and the president Stone.

"It's your fault!" exclaimed Toby's dad angrily towards the president.

"It doesn't matter, as we have proven that this robot is very strong and will make me win the elections" said the president with a smile.

"Dad!" yelled Toby and ran towards his father.

"Toby! Run away! This place is very dangerous for you!" ordered his dad. The big robot took advantage of their small distraction and started firing more lasers. The scientist where able to dodge them, except for Toby, who was sent flying.

"Toby!" exclaimed his dad worriedly and walked towards him. The robot fired again, this time towards the president. Toby's dad managed to push him aside, the hit crashing towards the wall.

"Tenma…" said the president, astonished. Tenma sighed and got up, walking again towards his son, this time slower as he got a little hurt. Toby looked up and saw his dad getting closer to him. However, a worried look grew in his face when he saw the robot taking aim at Tenma. Toby slowly got up, and, even though his body badly hurt because of the blast he received the last time, Toby ran towards his parent. He pushed him aside and received the blast for him. Tenma looked at his son with eyes like dishes as he yelled in pain. Few seconds later, the robot stopped and Toby's body fell. Tenma didn't bother to get up, and so he crawled as fast as he could towards Toby. He put an ear into his son's chest, hoping to hear a heartbeat. Tears formed on Tenma's eyes and he exclaimed "Toby!" when he heard none.

Tenma's friend took advantage of the robot's stop, grabbed a blue wire that had a blue sphere on it's end and connected it to the robot's chest. The robot screamed weakly in pain as the blue energy zapped him. Few time later, the robot couldn't support any more damage and exploded, a red sphere being sent flying. A scientist grabbed it.

"Here Dr. Elefun" he said and gave the sphere to Tenma's friend.

"Thanks. I'm keeping this on a safe place" he said and looked at a crying Tenma, who kept hugging his son.

"Toby…" Tenma whispered. The president looked at the scene, very angry.

"What? The robot was supposed to be unstoppable, specially after I put the red core on it! Unbelievable!" he exclaimed and looked at Tenma for a few seconds, then walked away. Dr. Elefun walked closer to Tenma.

"I'm sorry about Toby" he said sadly. Tenma didn't reply and he just patted Toby's head gently for a few minutes. Then he got up, still grabbing Toby.

"What are you going to do?" asked his friend. Tenma sighed and looked at him.

"I will bury him in a proper place" said Tenma and kept walking, out of the room. Dr. Elefun didn't move for a while and looked at the ground.

'Toby, you were an excellent son. I was very proud of you, and you even sacrificed your life to save me. I am such a happy dad' though Tenma and sat down on a bench for a while. He looked at the room, waiting for Dr. Elefun to get out. When he did, Tenma looked around, making sure there was nobody looking at him, and walked back to the room. He turned on the lights and looked around, searching for something. The place was a mess: It was natural that Tenma would have a hard time finding things. He placed down Toby gently and kept walking around the room.

Half an hour later, he smiled weakly when he saw a glow coming from below a destroyed machine. He removed it and grabbed the object. He kept it on his pocket, grabbed Toby and walked outside the Ministry of Science.

I really love the Astro Boy movie, but what I disliked was the part in which Toby's curiosity took him to the room and died vaporized, so I decided to give him a more heroic…death. Review, please?
