"It's a bright and sunny Saturday afternoon in Los Angelas. Katie is riding her bike and stops in front a local community center when she sees a poster advertising a robotics club that needs new members. Loving technology she curiously goes to the room and sees it full of about 8 boys a bit older than her standing around a table chatting and building robots. She steps in and continues to watch until one of them notices her"
Hey "she says shy" Can I join your club? It looks like fun
"A tall brown haired boy angrily rolls his eyes" No! You can't join! I'm Bobby the club president. I make the decisions and I say that girls can't build robots! So get out! "He yells rudely as he laughs at her surprised face"
Katie: No "stares him in the eyes confidently" You're not being fair. A girl can do anything a boy can. I think you should allow anybody to join this club. You have to be a fair and kind club president
"Angry that she's not backing down" Bobby: I don't need a dumb girl like you telling me how to run my club! But since you're so persist I'll do this. There's a robot war coming up and my team always wins. You can enter and challenge us
"Katie gives him a mischievous smirk" Ok and the prize can be who the president will be. If I win I'm the new president and will allow any kid at any skill level which INCLUDES GIRLS to join and if you win you'll unfortunately keep being the tyrant you are you power hungry jerk
"Wanting her to leave he yells" Deal now beat it loser!
"Not moving" Katie: Can you at least give me more details about this robot war?
"Groans annoyed he shoves a box of loose robot parts in her hands" There you go
"Looks down at them confused and appalled at his rudeness" Katie: These parts can't be used. It's just random screws and other junk
"Now working on his robot again" I don't care. I gave you parts now get out!
"Fed up with his behavior she finally leaves and sits on a bench near her bike and starts to cry"
I really can't do this "she says with a shaky tearful voice"
"A boy from the club comes up to her"
You never told us your name
"Startled by him" Why do you want know? "She says as she gives him an annoyed and distrustful look" Aren't you gonna be mean to me like Bobby?
"Shakes his head and sits next to her" No. I'm not like him at all. I WANT girls to join. I WANT you to win. I'm fed up with him always bossing us around. Taking credit for our hard work and never ever letting us control the robot at the competition. He makes it look like we're a good hard working team but he gets all the glory. He forces us to smile and pretend like we enjoy being with him. Secretly I've always hated the face that he's president. I wanted to be the president. I suggested that it would be a good idea to let girls and kids with disabilities join us. He turned down that idea when a boy in a wheelchair came into the room and accidentally dropped a robot. Bobby nearly lost his voice screaming at the kid to never come back and said Cripples aren't allowed!
That's awful! "Katie says disgusted by this fact" What's your name?
I'm Cameron "he says with a smile" What's yours?
Katie "shakes his hand"
"Realizing who she is" As in Katie Knight. The little sister of Big Time Rush?! "He says excitedly"
"Smiles proudly" Yep that's me. But promise me you won't tell the others. Especially Bobby
"Crosses his heart" As a Boy Scout you have my solid word
Thanks "Katie says as she laughs and realizes she can fully trust him" I've got to get home *She puts on her helmet*
Wait! "Cameron says as he runs in front of her bike" I'm not suppose to be doing this but I have real working parts that'll help you build your robot "he winks at her as he puts a bag of them in the box Bobby gave her and helps her put everything in her bike basket" The robot war is in three weeks
What?! "She says with a shocked face" How am I suppose to build a robot in 3 weeks?! I don't know anything about this hobby! I'll fail and Bobby will win and keep making you miserable!
No he won't cuz I believe you can do this "the pre-teen says confidently and smiles at her"
Cameron! "Bobby says angrily coming out of the building" What have you been doing out here for the past 10 minutes?!
Pretend to be upset "he whispers as he smiles and winks at her"
I've just been telling this girl you kicked out to get lost
"Looks at her sad face and smiles evilly" Great job "Bobby says full of satisfaction and goes back inside"
Good he's gone. You should get going before he comes back and realizes something is up "Cameron sighs relieved"
Wait! "Katie says full of shock and confusion" You lied for me. Why would you do that? We barely know each other. We aren't even friends
"Shrugs happily" Can we be friends? "Cameron says full of hope" I lied cuz it's about time that jerk got put in his place
Yeah you seem like a good kid "she says with smile and rides off"
