The heat blazed through the night as the small house burned, the wooden
material easily succumbing to the flames. From down in the city, the small
burning house looked like a torch in the night, on top of it's hill. The
residents had long since ran, leaving for their own safety.
From the large oak tree in the corner of the yard, that had not yet caught on fire, a dark shadow watched, it's glowing eyes sad, clearly expressing regret at what was happening. Just as quickly as it appeared, it left, quick as lightning.
As the fire department began to arrive, they quickly went to work trying to douse the flames. However, one of the veichles approaching the house was not a truck, but a small black car. Having to stop because of the barricade, one of the back doors swung open, and a little girl lept out, and ran straight towards the burning building.
"Grandpa!!" The child desperately cried, arms outstretched, tears streaming down her face. But before she could get any farther, a woman, who had emerged from the front passengers side scooped her up and held her away form the flames.
The little girl cried and buried her face into the woman's neck. "He's gone, now I'm all alone..."
"Don't worry, love, you aren't alone." The woman said, trying to console the child. Although, in her heart, she didn't know what was to become of the girl. Her family was now all gone, all she had was...
"GET OUT OF MY WAY!!" A loud voice bellowed from the car, as several scuffles were heard from someone trying to escape from the car. "She needs me! MOVE!" Kicking one of the doors open, a yellow medabot, KBT type, emerged from the car and immeadiately ran to the little girl, shoving the woman out of the way. "You still have me, I'll always be here for you."
The child whimpered, and clung to the medabot, like the machine was it's mother. "Please...." the girl whispered, tears falling down her cheeks, "don't leave me too.."
The medabot shook it's head, dismissing the idea.
"Never. I'll never go. You and me are together for the long run."
