Universe: standard KR universe.

Rating: G, POV, maybe a bit of OOC-ness...?

Note: I love you, Vejitto. Even though you pushed me over the edge, I'll be thankful for all of this.

The story itself was written years ago, when I had been on a KR drive; I did several things then I'm not too proud of anymore. This story, however, is not one of those things. Now with the rising of KR2008, I dug up my old stuff and I'll try to post what's still salvageable. And the new ones as well.

Also, because FFNet hates us, the formatting is now screwed. Enjoy.

It's quiet here. And I'm alone. I don't like to be alone. But this way I have the time to think.

I heard, what they said. They were all so serious. They said, I have to be deactivated for reprogramming. I wasn't afraid. I hadn't known, what it means. I abandoned myself to them. And they killed me.

+black+ +silence+

It was horrible. I don't like to be alone but I was. All alone in that emptiness. I was deaf and blind, imprisoned into the black nothing. I couldn't sense anything except my own misery. Where's the beautiful, sleek-bodied black car? Where's a driver? Where's the light, the rays of the sun, where's the wind, where are the water drops? Give them back!

Give me back the beautiful black car! Don't let me here alone! Reprogram me if you must, just do it! I don't like it here, it is so frightening! Is this fear? Do I fear? Yes… Is there something wrong with me? Am I flawed? Don't you need me anymore? I disappointed you and now you're angry with me, right? Please, please, reprogram me, that I could be better, that I could be good enough for you! Just get me out of here! I don't like it!

+light+ +hot+

Why? Why don't you come? It's not fear anymore. I'm more like angry now. Why did you create me? Why did you give me a life? Just to take it away? Why did you brought me to existence if you won't allow me to experience it? I want to have the black car back! I want to ride on the road again, hear the wind, let the sun reflect on the smooth surface of the polished body. I want to be ME. Just let me be ME! I can't be otherwise, you programmed me that way!!

What is this? Aah, this is familiar… like being born again. Light and warmth blurs my vision and I can feel the car around me again! The beautiful black car, ready to head out for a ride. I'm back! Thank you, thank you! Now, I can experience more from the existence. Just let me ride out.

Let me be the Automatic Roving Robot, what I was designed to be…
