Hey!The story's getting better!Keep reading and reviewing!
This is a really long chapter so you should be here for a while...
The next thing they knew,they were driving on a normal looking road.It looked like it was earlier that day.Everything looked normal.You'd never know that robots would enslave this whole naborhood by looking at it.Emily's arms were around Sonny's neck as his were around her waist.Emily turned to Stephanie the pink robot."What's going on?Where are we?" she looked panicked.
"Earlier today,5:29,12 seconds and counting." Stephanie replied.
"One of y'all wanna tell me what the hell's going on here?" Del said.Stephanie pulled into Emily's driveway and turned off the time machine.It made a cool,sci-fi like sound as it turned off,but nobody really noticed.They could'nt be distracted by the sounds a car made at the moment.
Stephanie turned to Emily with a sad expression on her light-pink face.Her green eyes burned into Emily's."Two months after the NS-5s took over the world,you finished building me.You took a CD copy of my programming and inserted it here..." she turned her head to everyone and pointed to the back of her head,where a disk drive apeared to be under a glowing,blue swirl that was her brain was."You made a copy of my programming from the computer after you first made me when you were ten." she said as she turned her face back to Emily.Everyone listened in."You fond it in a seperate disk drive while you were asembling me." she said.Emily was gawking at her.She could'nt beleive it.She knew she made Sonny from a hologram program,but she was made from scratch.
"You are one smart kid..." Del said to Emily as she looked at the back of Stephanie's head.
"Tell me everything that happened!How did you come here?" Emily said.Everyone looked at Stephanie,now.She began to tell the story.
The city was now torn-up houses on dry dirt.In every derection,there was a NS-5 walking this distroyed naborhood.Inside the barely together homes,a human family in rags sat down and huddled together in fear of these strong machines.Nobody wanted to know how they got here,or why their doomsday was oddly close to the plot of the I,robot movie with Will Smith.They just wanted to be free.
One of the family's,a mature looking woman with a same type of man next to her,sat on the gound,huddled together.Between them was a young girl.She had short,sleek brown hair.This was Vickie's family.The girl was Vickie's little sister,Natasha.She had a puppy in her hand.The old family dog died and they got this new puppy from the pound a few days before the robots started attacking people.
Suddenly,the puppy jumped off of Natasha and ran out of the house.
"Peanut!" she yelled after her friend as she followed it out of the disturbing looking window.Her mother yelled after her as tears looked like they were forming in their eyes."No,Natasha!It's not safe!" she said as she ran after her,closely followed by her husband.
The puppy ran past a robot without being noticed right outside the house.It did notice the young girl outside of her house and quickly stepped in front of her.She stopped in her steps and looked up at the angry machines white face.It stared at the young girl with a disturbing look on its face as his red light pulsed throughout his body.The girl looked at the robot with great fear in her innocent little eyes.
"Please return to your home!You have been deemed hazardous!" the robot said to the girl,not noticing how terrified she was.
The girl looked at the robot for one moment,then ran back to her family,where her parents stood and put their arms around her.
As the the robot turned around and walked away after comfirming that she was within her range again,the girl's eyes began to grow tears."But what about Peanut?" she asked in her sweet,innocent voice.
Her mother looked at her with greif."I'm sorry,sweetie...Peanut's gone." she said to her.She hugged her crying child as she shot evil glares at the robots as they roamed the earth.
The robot then walked over the gound where Emily's house used to be.There was no house there,anymore.He noticed one area of the ground that felt more like wood than dirt.
Under that peice of wood that was put there to hide the basement underneath,a un-bathed Emily stood at the same table she was at when her dearest Sonny held her.She was putting the parts of a pink NS-5 together on the table.Emily's computer was no longer in her basement.The NS-5s tore it down after they converted VIKI into one of them.She was the only female NS-5 among the group that roamed the earth,keeping the humans at bay.When Sonny had the gun to Emily's head,he tried to shoot down the NS-5s himself,but they got to him before he could do anything.One of them took Emily and held her back as she tried to get to Sonny.She watched helplessly as three of them tore him apart in front of her.He laid on the ground torn apart within seconds as he looked into Emily's eyes.They blinked as they gave Emily a sad,horrified look before the closed.
"NO!" Emily cried as she tried to get away from the emotionless robot holding her back.Sparks were flying from the lifeless machine that used to be her love.Her husband.A father.
"Despose of him!" VIKI the hologram commanded.The robots that had torn him apart obeyed their queen as they picked up parts of him.Emily stared at the parts being disposed of as they all walked up the stairs,leaving Emily on her knees.
She thought to herself as tears fell down her face.What have I done?She thought.Sonny's dead because of that peice of crap I made!She looked at the closet that those killer robots had walked out of.In front of it was a huge peice of metal.A hand.A robot hand.
She crawled over to it and picked it up.The robots took every part of her love.Every part accept for this one hand.She pressed it against her chest as she sat on the ground.Her tears fell upon the shiny silver as she thought up a plan.A plan to stop this from happening.
She felt the silver metal against her skin and remembered the times when it was connected to a arm,which would make the hand pass it's fingers through her hair.
The tired,dirty,and hungry Emily of two months later was going through the white lap-top she had since she was a ten year old.It was Stephanie's first home.She converted into the big computer she made when her family moved into the big house.She wanted so much to live in the big basement.
"I want to live in here,Mommy!" said the ten year old Emily."I can put my inventions in here and make it my lab!" Emily had a bright light in her eyes as she imagined the things she could do with the basement space.
"And she'll be far away from me!" the twelve year-old Anna said.
She opened a CD drive she fond on the side of it.It had a old looking,blank CD in it.She wondered what it was and how it got there.
She picked it up and remembered.She copied the files that built up Stephanie onto another CD just for in case she broke the computer.She remembered that her mother called her up to dinner before it had finished.It had been there ever since.
She put the disk in the back of the pink robots head after clearing all dusk off of it.The robots head vibrated as Emily saw a positronic brain grow inside it.After a while,the disk was exited out and the pink robot opened her eyes.
Emily took the CD as the pink head looked at her with curiosity on her face.Emily looked at the robot."What is your name?" she said to make sure everything was working properly.
She looked at Emily for a second and then smiled at her."My name is Stephanie!" she said.
Emily started to cry.The way she responded reminded her so much of Sonny.Stephanie got up from her table as Emily sat on the old couch in front of the space that used to be her computer."Why are you crying,Emily?" Stephanie asked.
As Stephanie sat next to Emily,she told her everything that happened.The first day she met Sonny,and everything from then on.She would calm down,but every time she thought of Sonny,she would cry again.
After she told the only person in the world she could turn to now,a robot she just made,everything that happened,she looked at Stephanie as evan she looked sad."I never evan said goodbye..." Emily sniffed and then threw her arms around Stephanie.Her female intuition and difference engine told her to hug her back.As her tears fell on Stephanie's shoulders,Emily said with her voice choked up "I never told him how much I loved him!".
They both suddenly saw light come into the basement.A NS-5 had fond the door and called others over to investigate.
Emily quickly got up and pulled Stephanie up,too."You remember when Sonny got killed?" she asked her quickly.
"Yes,Emily!" Stephanie replied.
Emily grabbed a gun and a thick,black cuff-bracelet that had a computer chip inside it.She slapped it on Stephanie's right arm and gave her the gun."Go back there on my time machine and stop that from happening!" She said as the NS-5s jumped inside the basement."You have been deemed hazardous.Termination authorized!" they repeated.
Emily looked fearfully at the incoming danger and at Stephanie."Do it now!My life is in your hands!" she commanded.Stephanie ran to Emily's time machine at lightning quick speeds over where it always was.She got inside it and typed in the destination time.
She looked outside her window,where Emily was now in front of a female looking NS-5.She had a gun in her hand,pointed straight at Emily."You have disobeyed us." VIKI's voice came from her mouth."It is time you've been decomitioned..." the gun clicked.
Stephanie slammed on the gas and merged forward.It flashed against the wall as she heard a gun shot and Emily's screams behind her.
The time machine was on Emily's old front lawn next.The NS-5s were attacking people,though the naborhood did'nt look as bad as it did.Stephanie got out and ran inside quickly.She saw Emily's mother,Father,and Anna trying to dodge the robots.
"Oh look!A pink one!That's so cute!" Anna said when she saw Stephanie run inside.
"Anna!" Emily's mother cried in the next room.
"Oh!Sorry,Mom!" Anna ran back into the living room.
Stephanie held the gun in her hand and ran to the basement.She opened the door and saw Emily,looking cleaner,younger,and all around healthier.She was in the middle of a circle of NS-5s with one holding a gun to her head.She knew it was Sonny right away when she saw he had no uplink.The girl being choked by the robot Stephanie heard Emily talk about was right where Emily said she was.
As soon as Stephanie confirmed she was in the right place,she shot down all of the NS-5s in the circle...
"And then you all know everything that happened after that." Stephanie smiled.Emily widened her eyes and looked at Sonny."I can't beleive I almost lost you!" she said as she held Sonny.
"I can't beleive the NS-5s actually killed me..." Sonny said.
"I can't beleive Natasha let the dog go!" Vickie said."She says she can take care of it but the moment your back is turned--"
"Emily's coming!" Stephanie interupted and turned the time machine back on.She drove past the side of Emily's house into the back yard as Emily,Vickie,and the human Sonny walked out there the exact moment Stephanie drove into the front yard.
"It is hard to beleive I almost died..." Sonny said as Stephanie turned the car back off.
"Yeah..." Emily said softly."What could have been..."
