Chapter XVII: The Return
Michael pulled KARR back into the Knight Estate.
"Will I see you again, Mr. Knight?" The Knight Automated Roving Robot asked Michael as he disengaged the engine. He saw Wilton Knight and Devon Miles standing there.
"Count on it," He said as he climbed out of the vehicle. Wilton smiled at him, wondering who he was.
"Who are you and how did you steal my prototype?" Wilton asked. Michael smiled at him.
"Mr. Knight, My name is Michael Knight I borrowed the Knight Automated Roving Robot for an investigation. I work for the F-" He stopped. He knew he shouldn't mention the Foundation yet. Because at this time was not activated due to the recent death of Ken Franklyn.
"Who do you work for Mr. Knight and why do you look like my son?" Wilton asked.
"Mr. Knight that's a question you'll have to discover on your own." Said the voice of Trinity Jean Knight as she climbed out of KARR. Devon walked over to the 2003 prototype.
"Who designed this car and why does it look like the prototype Wilton's team just built and Mr. Knight just stole?" Devon said as he stared at the scanner, which was a crimson red.
"I did, Mr. Miles. I based it on the prototype designed by my father." Trinity said as she kissed the older British gentleman on the cheek.
"It's a pleasure meeting you, but who are you?" Devon said surprised at how she knew him.
"I work for the FBI and I was instructed to ask my husband Michael here to 'borrow' your prototype car even thought he is still being prepared. My own car would not have been suitable. I was told to use it and return it. Thank you KARR for helping me in our investigation," Michael said to the prototype vehicle.
"The pleasure was mine, Mr. Knight. I hope that when my creator is done with me that I will be paired with such a person as yourself," KARR answered. Michael nodded at the vehicle.
"Mr. Knight, may I speak with you for a moment?" Devon said. Devon walked with Michael away from the prototype.
"Don't tell KARR, but we found a glitch in the vehicle's programming. Apparently one of our programmers miss programmed the vehicle's microprocessor. The girl has since been fired. We are going to deactivate and dismantle the car," Devon said quietly enough so the vehicle wouldn't hear.
"I promise I won't. By the way what was the car programmed?" Michael asked.
"Self-preservation. I'm surprised you didn't notice it when you drove it," Devon said.
"Uh, no. KARR told me he wasn't programmed yet." Michael said. One of the doctors came in.
"Mr. Knight we found the man you've been searching for. His name is Michael Arthur Long, a Cop in Nevada. He's been shot, sir. Apparently by the same people that stole your plans for the Knight 2000 plane," the doctor said.
"Hurry Devon! Tell my helicopter pilot to find him quickly!" Wilton said. Michael then heard a 3 tone beep as KITT was calling him.
"Michael, I think we need to get home." KITT said. He then shook Devon and Wilton's hand and nodded to his "wife" and they climbed into the 2003 version of KARR.
"We're on our way, KITT. Activate your homing beacon and we'll come to you and leave shortly," Michael said. He was thankful. This particular adventure was over.
The End…..
