The next chapter is here! Lol. From here, the adventure is getting started. Oh yes, I forgot to say something: Disclaimer: I DON'T OWN ASTRO BOY THE MOVIE! It is a little similar to the original movie.

Chapter 2

Tenma had been working on the project for a week, and he hadn't eaten almost anything, nor slept enough hours. That's why he had dark circles under his eyes. However, he didn't care, as he needed to finish what he had started. He didn't tell anybody about it, not even to Dr. Elefun, for security.

Tenma walked towards a very small table, pressed a small blue button on it, and a small blue sphere appeared. He sighed before grabbing the glowing thing and taking it towards another table. This one was bigger, with a metallic structure and had a robotic skeleton on top of it. Tenma looked at the skeleton sadly, then played a little with the blue sphere.

"Toby…It had been a week since I lost you. I'm doing my best to finish this robot, which will have your memories" he said to no one in particular and walked towards a computer. After pressing some buttons, small machines appeared from both sides of the big table. They glowed and moved upwards, covering the skeleton with artificial skin and hair, the legs with red boots, and black boxers with a green stripe. Tenma turned around and smiled.

"It looks just like my son" he said to himself and grabbed a tiny hair from a container: it was Toby's hair, then placed it on a computer's glass. A message that read 'Analyzing DNA' appeared on screen. Tenma started playing with his fingers while he waited for the analysis to be completed. When it reached the 100% he looked above the brand-new robot. A hologram appeared, showing Toby's memories. He cried soft while he pressed a button to download the memories to the robot.

After he heard a robotic voice say 'Download completed' he looked at the sphere. He walked back to the robot and touched it's chest, a hatch opening up. Tenma placed the blue sphere in a hole in the robot's chest and closed the hatch. The robot shone weakly for a few seconds because of the blue energy it was receiving, then stopped. Tenma looked at it with a small smile.

The robot moved a little it's right leg, then the left one. It slowly sat up and opened it's eyes. They were shining blue as his vision was being focused properly. The robot closed his eyes and reopened them. The glow had disappeared and Tenma could see their color: brown, just like Toby's.

"D-Dad?" it asked. Tenma was happy.

"Toby!" he exclaimed. Toby moved his legs to one side of the table and tried to get up, just to fall. Tenma walked towards him and touched his shoulder.

"I'm fine" said Toby as he tried to stand up again, just to fall one more time. However, Tenma grabbed him and smiled.

"You must be tired. I will take you to your room" he said and walked outside the room. Toby just closed his eyes and fell asleep. Tenma put down Toby gently in his bed and covered him with blankets. He couldn't help but to look at him with tears in his eyes.

'It was a success…I hope. I will check it tomorrow' he thought and sighed. He wasn't ready at all to leave Toby alone, so he grabbed a chair and put it near his bed. He sat down and looked at a sleeping Toby. He smiled and also fell asleep.

The next day Toby woke up earlier than his dad and yawned. For some reason he didn't understand, he felt different from yesterday. He couldn't remember what had happened before he woke up in the lab. He sat up and saw that his dad was sleeping besides him, making Toby get more confused.

"Dad?" he asked, making Tenma look up.

'Not only I feel different. My dad looks different too. He looks as he hadn't slept much hours. It's strange, as he looked normal yesterday' Toby thought, confused and kept looking at his dad.

"Oh Toby…you have waken up. How do you feel?" Tenma asked while he got up.

"Um…I feel strange. Did something happen to me?" Toby replied. Tenma shook his head.

"Oh…no Toby. You are in excellent conditions" Tenma said nervously. He couldn't help but to hug Toby for a minutes.

"And…do you feel ok?" asked Toby, more confused than before. However, Tenma didn't reply and kept hugging him. Then he stopped and sighed.

"I'm going downstairs to prepare breakfast" Tenma said and got out of Toby's room, closing the door behind him. Toby got out of his bed and walked towards a bathroom. When he saw his reflection, he was still curious.

'I feel weird, but I look fine' he thought. He then shrugged his shoulders and went downstairs, towards the dining room. He saw his dad get out of the kitchen with one plate on his hands.

'And my plate?' thought Toby, but didn't talk about it. Besides, he didn't feel any hungry. Tenma sat down on a chair and moved his hand. Toby understood it as 'Sit down too' and he also sat down on a chair in front of his dad.

"I…uh…have to tell you something" said Tenma, hesitant.

"Sure dad" said Toby.

"You are…are…a-not going to school anymore" explained Tenma.

"What do you mean dad?" asked Toby.

"I-I'm going to give you classes here, in the house" Toby smiled weakly as he looked at his dad eat fast his breakfast and get up.

"Follow me" he told Toby and walked towards a table. He moved his hand, and a screen with hard equations appeared in the front.

"Let's start with something that you know. You love this ones" Tenma said and looked at Toby. He shrugged his shoulders.

"If you say so dad" he replied and started typing in the screen. Tenma was surprised.

'He maybe is still the same' thought happily. Toby finished.

"Well done son" said Tenma.

"You have seen nothing yet" said Toby and touched the screen, making a geometrical figure move. An arrow and a bow were formed. The arrow was thrown towards a figure-made-cowboy, who started singing. Toby found it funny, but was disappointed when he saw his dad's face.

'I was wrong after all. He is very different' he thought sadly, sighed, and moved his hand, making the screen disappear.

"…Ok. Then let's go to the basics" Tenma said as he got up and walked towards a book shelter. He was about to grab some books, when he heard a beeping noise coming from the kitchen. He walked towards it and checked a machine, his eyes widening. He didn't expect for them to had appeared so early.

Yay! A cliffhanger. Sorry it took me about 2 days to write this, but was busy.
