The Beginning:
Chapter 1
Chiro clicked on his television. His favorite show, Sun Riders, appeared on the TV screen. Their opening theme music played as Chiro tried to imitate the moves the three heroes demonstrated. He punched and kicked the air, and ended with his right arm diagonally up like his favorite character, Johnny Sunspot.
It's been a year now since he had been let out of the Shuggazoom Orphanage and had to live on his own. He was grateful when he was finally able to leave them. There was nothing there for him except bullying and fear. Now he was able to dress however he liked, instead of that gauntly uniform, and watch his favorite show in peace.
Chiro watched in awe as his favorite heroes jumped into their giant fighting robot, the Nebutron 7. The giant robot hurtled itself towards its enemy sending it flying, and along with some missiles, finished it off. Chiro cheered with excitement and the credits started to zoom at the bottom of the screen. He sighed as he clicked off his television.
His stomach gurgled as his rummaged in his pockets for any loose change. "Hey, I've got enough for one hover burger!" he said with excitement. He raced out of his house and over to the hover burger joint ran by Mr. Gackslapper.
"One hover burger please." Chiro said as he slapped down some change onto the counter.
"Hover burger coming up," the nice guy wearing a cooking apron said as he guided the hovering burger over to its customer.
Chiro stuffed the burger into his face and drank from his free hover burger drink that came as part of the meal. He sat there on the stool for a while letting the burger digest. Finally satisfied with himself Chiro got up, thanked the man, and left the joint.
Chiro put his hands behind his head and walked down the street. "Now what should I do? It's not like I have to be anywhere." He wandered around the city looking in stores, wishing he had the money to buy the cool objects, and watched as friends and family hung out with one another.
Not watching where he was going, he accidentally bumped into an old acquaintance.
"Hey Glenny look! It's our old friend, Chiro." The taller kid who Chiro had bumped into was BT. BT and Glenny, a chubby African kid, were once orphans like Chiro, and since they're the same age as Chiro when he was let out the orphanage they were also.
"Remember all the good times we had together," BT said putting his arm around Chiro's neck and choking him.
Glenny laughed, and snorted, at his friend's comment.
"Oh ya. Great times." Chiro remembered when he used to watch Sun Riders that BT and Glenny would always turn off the TV or make fun of him. But it wasn't just the Sun Riders they poked fun at him about; they made fun at him for practically everything he did. Ever since he was little he's been weak and it's all thanks to those two.
An angry Mr. Pauley walked around the corner and spotted the two brutes.
"Oh no! MR. Pauley found us!" Glenny said scared.
BT released Chiro and blotted in the opposite direction of him, followed by his companion.
Mr. Pauley ran to Chiro. "Which way did those two thieves go?" he asked.
Chiro pointed after BT and Glenny, and Mr. Pauley sped after them. Whatever trouble they were in they definitely deserved it, thought Chiro.
Chiro smiled from ear to ear from then on out. He daydreamed about the Sun Riders punishing the two bullies, and how someday he would like to pay them back for all they had done to him. He skipped along cheerfully, kicking a tin can out of his way. He didn't even pay attention to where he was going, until he realized he was outside the city.
Just wandering around, he walked over a small hill. He looked blissfully around at the new setting, and spotted a giant metal block. His eyes traveled up the block, following a round, metal tube till got saw the gigantic, moss-covered object. The metal block was the foot of a giant metal robot. The robot must have been here for a long time to have all that moss on it.
He got closer to the foot of the robot, and a door flew down in front of him from the metal block. His excitement grew as he cautiously walked inside the robot.
It was dark inside and Chiro couldn't see very much. He looked around for a light switch, but couldn't spot any for how dark it was. He walked around and into a room with a bunch of wires, bolts, and buttons scattered around the walls. He noticed a big lever in the middle of what looked like a circuitry. That's gotta do something. Chiro thought walking over to it. His excitement overflowed, and with a smile, he pulled the lever down.
A green electric current shot from the lever and a green light filled the room. He felt a surge of energy build up inside him. He started to feel weak and dizzy, but before he collapsed he thought he heard a strange sound come from him; the sound of a monkey.
