Ki'kiri woke up to the sound of birds chirping. She yawned and stretched. It was a big day for her. As she got dressed, she tried to decide on which necklace to wear. Angel winged heart, or half a Ying-Yang symbol. After a few seconds she chose the Ying-Yang half. Her breakfast consisted of a hazelnut spread and grape jelly sandwich, And then she grabbed her suitcase and was out the door. She walked to the airport to catch the plane for Berlin,Germany. This was the month she would spend with her step-sister, her husband, and new baby. She was exited, but not for the too and from rides! She despised heights, but she knew she would get over it. As she made her trek to the airport, she noticed a man kept following her. The man was very tall, wore a black hat, a long black coat that's collar covered his face so she couldnt see what he looked like, and he carried a brief case. She shrugged it off that he was a business man who was also take ing a plane and continued to walk to the air port.
As she walked around to find the right gate, she sat down to rest after a really long walk. She found a seat in a area those who come in can take a seat and rest for a while. She sat in a chair next to a boy in a red hoodie and dark navy blue jeans. He had ear buds in his ears, so she doubted he would hear her if she said anything. She watched the people walk by untill she heard a male voice speak to her. "Going on a plane ride too?" It asked. She turned to see it was the boy next to her. "Oh, yes. My very first too." She said. "This is my 5th time flying home." He said. "5th! How much do you need to travel?" She asked moving a pice of her light blue hair to the side of her head from her face. "A lot. You get in the swing of it after a while. How much do You travel?" He said. "I never had to got by plane, or train, but i do by car. My parents would take me to store for weekend groceries, or to got see my dad and brother on weekends. But im going by plane today to see my step-sister in Germany. So, not mush to other places." She said. Then she looked up to see that man looking at them. It scared her quite a bit. "Is something wrong?" the boy asked. "That man has been following me all day. Im getting worried." She said looking to him again. The boy looked at the man, then back to Ki'kiri. "Yah, he looks pretty suspicious to me. I wouldnt stay around him the bast of my ability or speak to him." He said. "So whats your name?" He then asked her. "Oh, Ki'kiri. Whats yours?" She said. "Names William. Im traveling to Orlando,Florida to see my family." He said extending a hand. Ki'kiri took his hand and shook it only to become shocked. His hand felt so cold. And worse, it was metallic red and made of metal. She stared at his hand for a while untill William called her name again. "Is something wrong Ki'kiri?" He asked. "Your hand is-" She said but was cut off by Williams eyes moving to the suspicious man, who was now walking to them. "Not now lets get to my plane. We can talk there." He said grabbing her wrist and ushering her to the plane of his destination. "But im supposed to go to Germany! Not Florida!" She said to him. "But that man might only follow you. Like, like, what to you girls call guys who follow you anywhere you go?" He said in reply and then question. "Uh, Stalkers?" Ki'kiri said. "Yah, He might be one of those, or worse." William said.
They both then reached his planes gate. William looked behind them to see that the man was still following tham, but was farther away now. "Crud, hes still following us!" He said. The went to the desk and told Ki'kiri to hand his her pasport. Once they were stamped, they entered the plane and put His and Ki'kiris things in the lugage compartmanet above their seats. "Would you like to sit next to the window?" He asked. "Id rather not, but sure." She said showing she was nervous. As they sat down, William looked at her to see she was waering a scared exspresion. "Dont like flying?" He asked. "No, I dont like heights." She said. "Pretty much the same thing. Hey, have you ever played on a swing and when you swing forward you feel something like a pause, like theres no gravity before you swing back?" He asked. "Yah." She said. "Same thing, but higher, and no swing set. Just a no gravity like feel. Here,-" He said then grabbing her hand gently and holding it on the arm rest. "I'll even hold your hand in case you get scared." He said, his yellow eyes glowing in the shade his hoodies hood provided to cover his face. "Thanks, but your hand, its cold, and made of metal." She said looking at his hidden face and gentle yellow eyes. "Ok, I said I would tell you, I meant it. Now this will make you think Im a liar, except the fact im a robot." He said beginning his short tale. Ki'kiri was stunned that she was ACTUALLY talking to a robot! But a robot who had a reason to meet her. "You see, I am part of a organization called "Hero Factory". The create us robot heros to got out on missions to stop evil criminals from harming civilians, or causing destruction amongst worlds. We run on these power cores That contain our life stone, called Quaza stone. Rumor has it that when I was first charged, it was a bigger charge than normal. A super charge instead of a normal one. So its said I have the purest core. But to me it doesnt matter. To me what matters is, your safety." He said finishing. He then looked at her with eyes as if saying, "You think Im lieing, dont you?". It took afew moment to peice what William said together. "Of corse I can believe you. I just, never thought they made special robots like you who cared. No one but my few friends and family cared for me. Knowing you do too makes me happy." She said smiling to him. He returned a gentle smile, but that quickly turned to a frown as he looked to see the same man that was following them was 18 seat behind them on the other side of the plane. "And, most of all to add to all that, i think we have a villan on our hands." He said. He eyed the mans hand turn metallic maroon. His eyes glowed reddish orange, and he mouthed "I'll kill you Hero" to him. William only glared and mouthed "Touch her and you'll get more than prison time as a new life" back. Soon enough the plane took flight. It was getting dark out the window, and William noticed Ki'kiri was getting tired. "Need to sleep?" He asked. Ki'kiri rubbed her right eye. "Yah" She said yawning again. "You can sleep on my shoulder. It wont hurt." He said. She leaned on his shoulder and allowed sleep to take over. But, she had one more thing in mind to ask her new friend. "Hey William,-" She started to asked. "Yes?" He asked. "What to your cores look like?" She asked. William only smiled and said "I'll show you.". He then unzipped his hoodie quietly and pulled them back to were only Ki'kiri could see his yellow cores glow. It had a "H" on it, symbolizing he was a hero. She had to admit, it was quite pretty. As he zipped back up his hoodie, she started to doze off. But she heard him say something again. "And, call me Furno. Its what everyone who knows me calls me by." He whispered in her ear. She smiled. She liked that name. Furno, William Furno. It was a cute name.
