Magic And The Brave Little Toaster 1 Prologue
Since the very first appliance was made the world has never been the same. The same time the human race as been advancing so has technology right along with it. New devices are made each day with older ones becoming enhanced and remade entirely in order to better the day to day activities in our own lives all the time.
But there is a secret world that no human is privileged to be aware of. And it's happening right under their very noses.
You see humanity firmly believes that when you use an appliance then that's it, it is merely a tool. A very lifeless tool existing for our own enjoyment and benefit everyday. Well the latter would be correct, but the first…as a matter of fact this is questionable.
No, screw that. It's a load of nonsense and hogwash.
The truth is the appliances and various machinery that are regularly put in use by our kind are actually alive. From the moment each and everyone is fully assembled and off the assembly line.
People are clueless that when they believe they are alone there is someone watching them 24 hours without their knowledge.
There is a secret code that every appliance must follow to the letter no matter what. Never reveal yourselves to a human ever. Not even if it is an emergency. There are very strict rules to comply with and for those who break them there are many severe consequences that result from it. So it's expected that not one end up being a rule breaker here. The majority of humans aren't ready to face something like this in their world just yet.
I guess a certain laptop computer didn't get the memo.
You see a laptop that goes by the name L.P for short one day made the mistake of not paying attention to where his Mistress was before he conversed with a telephone for a few seconds.
L.P's owner is a young woman called Magic, a teenager in almost at her 18th birthday.
Here's the thing Magic is a foster care child who lives in a house with five other kids. It's quite crowded at the house and, lets be frank, it's not the most idea place to grow up. So Magic got a job at an electronics store part time in order to save enough money to support herself when she turns 18 and ages out of the system. A lot of kids usually are left homeless on the street with no money and nowhere else to go. That wasn't going to be her.
Magic has been working there for a long time which showed in how much money she's saving in a sock hidden underneath her mattress to deposit weekly at the bank. That's the process she has at payday.
One day when Magic was working late that is when L.P slipped up and was busted.
Magic slapped herself a couple of times in order to make sure she wasn't dreaming. All other machinery appliances were wise enough to stay unanimated. Just because L.P broke the rules doesn't mean they're going to.
Much to their surprise they had her pegged all wrong. Magic didn't freak out or turn them in. She instead was quite friendly and receptive towards them. So slowly all the electronic devices began to open up to her when no other humans are around to see them. They became friends. In return for this show of enormous trust Magic made sure to try and match and each and every one of them with a Master or Mistress that would treat them the way they deserve.
Finally Magic's birthday came and went. Right on schedule Magic was "liberated" , that is if you could call it that.
Magic doesn't know what to do though. It got even worse when Magic got laid off from her job. The owner was closing shop to movie closer to his sons that live in another state. He did give her a month's wages as severance pay. Ha! Like that's going to be a sufficient amount to tide her over.
The money Magic has now will barely last her 6 months at an apartment on her own if she is lucky.
But that's not Magic's only problem to contend with.
Since Magic learned about them she has formed a close friendship with L.P. Worried what might happen if the electronic store owner can't sell him Magic bought him with a large portion of the money in her savings. It's a huge hit to her finances, but to Magic it's an expense well worth it.
Good thing L.P is so easy to carry or else what Magic decides to do next with her life would be impossible.
Unable to go to college or afford to pay for a chance at acquiring her G.E.D Magic decides to do some traveling and on foot from place to place. She has no family or other friends remaining so it's not as if there's anything anchoring her to the same place.
Carried in a backpack L.P is coming along for the ride as they set off on a journey of unmistakable self-enlightenment.
Who knows maybe by doing this Magic can find something to do with her life. She never had before.
Magic and L.P are always on the movie, hopping from place to place. Magic does odd jobs here and there to get food and occasionally put a roof over their heads when weather conditions are too terrible for L.P to travel through even inside the backpacks confines. Also, L.P isn't like Magic. He has to recharge his batteries every now and again so Magic has to find places that'll allow her to use their outlets. Most of them demand she pay for her time so that's another added expense burdening her. This is a reason why the two of the stick close to populated areas, but there are times where they must venture into the countryside where they have to be extra careful.
Then, in August, around 4 months after Magic was kicked out of the foster care system Magic and L.P come across a lone cottage sitting alone in the lovely countryside.
If no one is living here then perhaps this is a good place for them to rest for a while.
Doesn't look like anyone is using it so what's the harm?
Authors Note:
September 11th has come and gone once again. I was very young when it happened. Don't know about all of you, but I certainly was really scared. One minute I was at elementary school in class and the next my parents are pulling me out, taking my little sister and I home. That's when we learned the truth. The Twin Towers we'd see all the time whenever we traveled outside the city limits on road trips would no longer be there. We were stunned when we'd seen them destroyed on TV. Those trips were never the same again just like the lives of millions. In honor for the people that fell that day and to those still struggling to survive from the aftermath I suggest a moment of respective silence. I think we all can use that.
Hope you all like this one! I certainly did while writing it for your vast enjoyment! ;D
I'm glad to have finally gotten a chance to upload this brand new story idea that came to me recently. Listen, I don't know about the rest of you, but I absolutely adored this movies series growing up. I mean when I was introduced to the first Brave Little Toaster movie I was totally transfixed on it. You see part of my mothers side of the family lives down south and whenever we'd go down there to visit them I'd always watch the movie at our Nana's house. It was one of my favorite things to do with both my elder and younger cousins. Afterwards when I later discovered two other movies were made after the first I literally almost went crazy with happiness. My two favorite characters from the three movies are Toaster and Kirby, but that is just my own opinion where it pertains to those characters.
What about you guys?
Personally each and every one of the main characters contain their own unique quirks and personalities to bring to the table that gets people from all around the world to love them so much. When I went to explore the section here on the website I was in shock and disbelief to see the fan base for it so small. Out of all that was on there, a few year ago, there was one story there that caught my interest, but when I went to read it again a while later it was gone. It made me very sad because what the author was trying to do there had so much creative potential. Hopefully what I'm trying to do with this one might on the off chance inspire others to get back into it and find love for this series once more.
Big time heads up! Article 13 is on the move again. Our freedom of speech is seriously on the line. Find a legitimate petition that is fighting this decision and sign onto it. Every signature counts to keep what we love alive.
I recently put up some other works including this that I've put out. They are titled Secret Of Bristol Cove, Predators Redemption, A Revolutionary Romance, Fantine Tezla: Hot Wheels Acceleracers, and Nuala: The White Lioness. I highly recommend them. ;D
