Chapter 2

"So there's no way I can convince you that this is a bad idea?" Carl asked Wilbur.

"Not unless you get me 100 gallons of ice cream and a hovercar." Wilbur said.

"Yeah, that's what I'd thought you'd say." Carl said.

The two snuck into the top secret invention lab of Cornelius Robinson, Wilbur robinson neared metal box, on it was printed 3 characters.

"AMI? What's that?" Wilbur read.

"Watch this." Carl said as he put in his handprint on the pod and the box opened.

"Woah." Wilbur said, staring at the thing inside.

There was a metal girl on the inside, her hair was painted black and her open eyes were brown. Wilbur looked at Carl.

"So this is what you were working on with dad? A girl? Creepy." Wilbur said.

"Nope, this isn't an odinary girl." Carl explained. "This is AM1, Amy for short. She has the exact traits and personalities I have. She's made of the state of the art technology."

"So how do you make her work?" He asked Carl.

"No, I can't do that, I can't activate her." Carl said.

"Come on, Carl!" Wilbur begged.

"No!" Carl said.

"Just do it." Wilbur demanded.

"Ok." Carl said, punching in a few buttons on the pod. "Hey – wait a minute..."

"Too late." Wilbur smiled as the girl blinked her eyes and looked at Carl.

"Hi Carl!" She said, cheerfully, then she looked at Wilbur. "Who's that?"

"I'm Wilbur Robinson." He said, holding his hand out to her.

"Hi, I'm Amy!" She said, ignoring it and looking around.

"How does she know you?" Wilbur asked Carl.

"Your dad put a few of my traits inside her, including some of my memory, she knows my name, she knows your dad's, but nobody elses." Carl said. "Well, except for you now."

"Wow, Carl, the world is so cool! Too bad it's so small." Amy said.

"Oh, no, Amy, this isn't the world, there's a bigger world on the outside." Carl said.

"Really? I wanna see, I wanna see!" Amy ran for the door, but Carl stopped her.

"Oh, no, you're supposed to stay in here." Carl said.

"Aww, come ON!" Amy exclaimed angrily.

"Some temper." Wilbur muttered under his breath.

"Why, do you have a problem with that?" Amy asked him.

"No, problem whatsoever." Wilbur gave a nervous chuckle.

"Yeah, that's one of her flaws – her temper." Carl said.

"Why'd you give her flaws? I thought a robot was supposed to be perfect." Wilbur said.

"Nope, perfect would be boring. And plus – Amy would be a complete Mary Sue." Carl said.

"Wouldn't want that." Amy told Wilbur.

"Alright, Amy, we're gonna have to deactivate you." Carl said.

"Come on Carl, just a while more?" Amy asked.

"A while more, Cornelius would come in and deactivate both of us." Carl said.

"Fine." Amy said, going into the box. "Bye Carl, Cya later Wilbur."

"Sure." Wilbur said as she was deactivated.

"So, now that you've seen Amy, can we go back to our lives now?" Carl asked.

"Yeah, sure." Wilbur said, walking out of the lab. "I'm so gonna mess around with her later."

"What was that?" Carl asked.

"Nothing..." Wilbur said, rushing down the hallway.
