Oh COME ON! Fry just HAD to get frozen again, and bring Leela along with him! That's insane! But then again, Leela pretty much knew what she was getting into when she agreed to marry Fry- a life of chaos.

Chapter 1: New New New York City, 5015

Ding!

The door to the cryo-tube opened, and Fry and Leela fell out of the cryo-tube, still kissing. And they would have kept on kissing if Fry hadn't banged his head on a chair as they fell.

"Ouch!" Fry cried.

Leela stood up. "Are you okay, Fry?"

Fry stood, rubbing his still sore head. "Yeah, I think so. But why is it so dark in here?"

Leela looked around. "The window is boarded up," she observed.

"Oh, so that explains the darkness in here," said Fry. Leela stared at her soon-to-be husband. Despite her acceptance to the fact that she loved him, Leela was still astounded by how dim Fry could be sometimes.

"Fry," Leela said slowly. "The window wasn't boarded up when we came in. Doesn't that seem strange?"

Fry shrugged. "Hey, I've seen a lot of strange things since I came to the future. Maybe someone just tried out a new instant-boarding-up-windows invention."

"Okay, that may sound like something the Professor would have invented," Leela agreed. She wandered over to the desk and wiped a finger on it. "But how do you explain the dust?" Leela held up her finger, which was covered in a thick amount from the desk.

Fry thought about it. "Maybe a dust monster got in?"

"Fry, there's no such thing as a dust monster," Leela argued.

"Hey, the future can have aliens, robots, and even mutants. Who says that one or more of those creatures couldn't be made out of dust?" Fry insisted.

"Not a robot, but maybe an alien or a mutant could be made out of dust," Leela admitted. She sighed. "Okay, I'm not getting through to you. I'll try and make this as simple as possible." Leela pointed to the cryo-tube the couple had rolled out of. "We came out of a cryo-tube, right?"

"Right," Fry agreed.

"And cryo-tubes freeze people, keeping them alive for long periods of time, right?" Leela continued.

"Right," Fry said again.

"Fry, you accidentally got frozen during the 20th Century, didn't you?" said Leela, hoping that this time Fry would get her point.

"Well technically, Nibbler pushed me into the cryo-tube so that I could defeat the Brain Spawn in the future," Fry pointed out. "But yeah, that's what I originally thought happened."

Leela sighed again. "Fry, I love you, but you are still not getting it."

"Getting what?" Fry asked, smiling naïvely.

Leela groaned. "I think we were accidently frozen. We're now in the future!"

Fry stared with a blank look on his face. Then his eyes widened. "Oh! You mean we've been sent to the future of the future?"

Well, Leela thought. Fry is from the 20th Century, after all. I'm from the 31st, so my time would be the future for Fry. He is always calling my time the future. Calling whenever we are the future of the future would actually make sense. "Yeah, I guess so," she said aloud.

"Whoa," Fry said in awe. "I wonder how long we were frozen."

As Fry was wondering, Leela glanced at the cryo-tube they had fallen out of. Her eye opened wide. "We've been frozen for 2000 years!" she yelped.

"Wow!" Fry exclaimed. "That's even longer than I expected."

Leela screamed out in aggravation.

Fry looked at his soon-to-be wife. "Is something the matter, Leela?"

"Fry!" Leela cried out, pacing the room. "Don't you get it? Our lives are gone! We have no homes, no jobs, and everyone we know and love died who-knows-how-long ago!" She burst into tears. "Oh god, my parents. I still barely know them. How can I live with them not knowing what happened to me?"

"We still have each other," Fry insisted.

Leela gawped at Fry.

"Leela, think about it," said Fry. "We may have lost our friends. We may have lost our family. We may have no home or jobs. But I know what it's like to live in a time beyond your life span. I can help you. Besides, it should be easier this time. The first time I was frozen, I was alone. This time, we have each other. Everything will work out, Leela. Trust me on this."

Gazing at Fry's childlike, hopeful smile, Leela could see the possibilities unfold. At that moment, she believed that Fry was actually right. Everything would be okay.

That was when a wreaking ball smashed its way through the wall.

"What the…?" Leela cried.

Luckily, that one smash was not enough to bring the entire building on top of the young couple. Unluckily, a small group of people began climbing through the hole in the wall.

Leela jumped in front of Fry, ready to send a tornado of roundhouse kicks at the people who had tried to kill them. While she waited for the dust to settle, Leela began wondering what she could be up against. Dictator aliens? Killer cyborgs? A new breed of dangerous super mutants?

As the dust settled, Fry and Leela saw that the group was none of those things. It was just a group of robots- robots that Fry and Leela knew from the 31st Century.

The robots hadn't noticed Fry and Leela yet. Most of them seemed to be focused on the robot at the head of the group. The robot in front was giving a speech as he walked through the cryogenics lab.

"On this glorious morning, January 1st, 5015, we are here to bid farewell to the last remaining building from the Age of Reversed Slavery. The last building from the era when everything was backwards…"

The robot stopped abruptly. He had just spotted Fry and Leela standing a few feet in front of him. "Just what are these perfectly good slaves doing standing around? And why are they dressed so nicely?"

Leela was in shock. This robot was Calculon! For some reason, the acting robot was back from Robot Hell again and thought that Fry and Leela were supposed to be slaves. Even weirder was that Calculon thought that Fry was dressed nicely. Sure, Fry was wearing his brown dating jacket, but it was hardly any nicer than his usual red one.

Before Leela could stop him, Fry started walking up to Calculon. "Hey Calculon! You're back from the dead again, huh? Are you back on "All My Circuits" yet? I would love to see some new episodes-"

Before Fry could finish, Calculon reached over and grabbed Fry's neck with one hand. "How do you know about "All My Circuits?" hissed Calculon. "Only the dominant species of this planet is allowed to watch television. Robots only! No humans." The robot said the last word like he was going to throw up.

"What are you talking about?" Leela asked. "Robots were originally built by humans, the dominant species of the planet."

"And humans have been watching "All My Circuits" for years," Fry choked.

"Lies!" Calculon thundered. "Our Emperor built me, solely for the propose of entertainment."

"You two slaves are insane," said another robot. It was the officer robot URL. "I'm taking you to the Emperor. He'll set you straight. Oh yeah."

"What Emperor?" Leela asked. The robots ignored her as they handcuffed Fry and her to URL. Leela was about to demand answers when she saw what was beyond the hole in the wall.

The city looked basically the same. The tubes were still working, and the buildings were similar to the ones in the 31st Century. But everyone was a robot, with no human in sight- at least that Leela could see. And there was a huge palace towering above the skyscrapers, with a giant gaudy sign at the top.

The sign read "Welcome to New New New York City, Capital of the Solar System and surrounding planets! All must worship the Emperor!"

Leela's doubts about being happy in this future were returning.
