Well…I have nothing to say, except that I don't own Astro Boy the Movie. Let's get started.

Chapter 3

Tenma looked at a hologram that appeared in front of the machine. It was showing a big plane flying slowly towards a tall building, where their home was. Tenma immediately recognized the plane: It was from president Stone. Tenma gasped.

'I'm sure the president is coming towards here to obtain the blue core from Toby. I'm not going to accept it!' he thought and clenched his fists. Suddenly, he got an idea and ran outside the kitchen, looking for Toby. He found him in the same table, playing with the figure-made-cowboy on screen.

"Toby!" exclaimed Tenma, making Toby gasp and move his hand to make the screen disappear.

"Um…I'm sorry dad, but I-"

"There's no time for excuses now." Tenma cut him off.

"Why? What's the matter?" Toby asked. Tenma hesitated. He didn't want to tell him he was no longer human and that president Stone was going to take his blue core out of him.

"W-Well…president Stone is coming here, and I suspect he isn't just going to say hello" explained Tenma and ran downstairs.

"Follow me!" yelled as he half-way. Toby nodded, even though he knew his dad couldn't see him, and walked downstairs, still confused about his dad's reaction. Tenma opened a door, and went inside. Toby knew that his dad had gone to the lab, but just followed him. Tenma pressed a button, and a metallic capsule appeared. It was big enough for Toby to fit in.

"Ok Toby. Go inside" Tenma ordered calmly, making Toby get more confused.

"Why? President Stone isn't going to hurt me" complained Toby. When Toby said the last part, Tenma felt like he was about to cry, but he managed to stay calm.

"Toby, just obey me" Tenma said, when suddenly he could hear strong knocks from upstairs.

"Tenma! I know you have the blue core. Give it to me!" yelled a voice outside the door.

"Dad…Is it true?" asked Toby. Tenma sighed: It was another question he wanted to avoid.

"Just do as I told you" said Tenma, getting frustrated. The knocks became more and more strong, making Tenma think that they were going to knock down the door.

"No dad. I'm going to stay and fight by your side" said Toby bravely and clenched his fists. Tenma smiled weakly.

'Well…just a little different' he thought, and felt proud about his creation. It was as brave as his son was. But he couldn't let the president get Toby, and so he slowly turned around and grabbed a forked like device from a table, then turned back to Toby and zapped him with electricity. Toby screamed in pain and fell to his knees, then turned around and saw his dad zapping him.

"…Why…d-dad…?" he asked before falling unconscious. Tenma stopped and looked at the robot.

"I'm so sorry Toby…but I have to keep you safe" whispered Tenma and grabbed the robot. He felt it very heavy, but didn't complain and put his body down in the capsule, then closed the hatch of the capsule.

"Please send him somewhere far away from here" he whispered and was about to press a button, when suddenly he heard the door of the lab shut open.

"I don't think so Tenma. You aren't getting away with it" said a voice that Tenma recognized.

"President Stone!" he exclaimed.

"Now be a good man and give me the blue core" ordered the president. Suddenly guards started walking inside the lab.

"I-I don't have it. Dr. Elefun told you the cores were lost in the Peacekeeper incident, didn't he?" asked Tenma, confused. The president just smiled.

"Well, he did tell me that the cores were destroyed, but a loyal soldier told me he tracked down a very strange and powerful energy from here. Then I had the feeling you had recovered the blue core and you used it for your own purposes, so I flew towards here before you could do something else" he explained.

"President Stone! Tenma has got the core in that capsule" said a guard besides the president. Tenma groaned in defeat.

"But why do you want the blue core?" asked Tenma.

"I want to be reelected, and I'm sure the people will do if I create a very good robot with that core. Now give it to me"

"No! Never!" yelled Tenma and looked at the guards pointing at him with guns.

"If you don't, you will go to jail" threatened the president. However, Tenma refused to give him the core and pressed the button besides the capsule, making it levitate for a few seconds, then disappear.

"What did you do Tenma?" asked the president angrily.

"Oh…just send the blue core to a safer place, where I'm sure you won't be able to go" said Tenma with a smile. A guard got angry and fired a laser. Tenma was able to avoid the blast, this hitting the machine were the capsule was and making the machine explode. Tenma looked at it worriedly.

'Oh no! Now I will never know where Toby ended' thought Tenma and looked at the guards.

"Take Tenma. He will go to the prison!" the president ordered. His guards nodded and walked towards the man.

'I just hope he will be safe' thought Tenma while looking at where the capsule was a few minutes ago.

'Ugh…where am I?" Toby asked as he slowly sat up and looked around. He was in a place he couldn't recognize. He saw an open capsule behind him, and so he decided to walk towards it, just to check it. Smoke was getting out of it, and it seemed badly damaged. Toby scratched his head.

"For some reason, this seems familiar, but I can't remember anything" he whispered and looked around once more. He saw flying cars all around the sky.

"Wow! I want to go in one of those!" he exclaimed and started running after plane-like-fish happily. Few seconds later, a whale-like-plane attracted his attention. He kept following it until he saw something falling from the sky. He stopped and looked at the thing, curious. When it was about to crash into the ground, it suddenly started flying without much control in it's flight. Toby was amazed.

"Cool! I wished I could fly like that" he said and started chasing the flying thing. However, he couldn't follow it as it was flying so fast. Toby sighed and turned around, feeling frustrated. He then remembered the capsule he saw time before, and started thinking.

'I don't get it. What I was doing there, unconscious? And why I think I have seen that capsule before? I can't remember nothing. My mind's blank'

It was now afternoon. Toby had been walking around the place, but at the same time hiding from everyone he saw. He didn't even know why he was acting like this. Toby sighed and decided that he would take a rest…wherever he could. He was looking for places to rest without being noticed, when he suddenly felt a strong air push him, making him fall. He looked up to see the flying thing.

'Wow! It's a flying boy!' he thought and was about to get up when he saw the boy fly towards him. Toby hid his face and didn't move, was just shivering.

"I'm sorry. Are you ok?" the boy asked. Toby nodded, but didn't look up.

"Are you sure?" he asked one more time, Toby nodding again.

"Let me help you" offered the kid.

"N-No thanks. I will get up by myself" Toby replied but didn't move. The kid smiled.

"You are strange" he said and flew away. Toby looked up, and when he saw the boy was far away enough, he slowly got up.

"Whew!" he said to himself and kept looking around. He saw a cardboard box in a very dark place. Toby walked towards it and made sure there was nobody in there. When he confirmed that, he smiled and sat down in the box. He barely fitted in, but he was satisfied to find a place. He closed his eyes and fell asleep.

You will eventually find out who was this mysterious flying boy, unless you have found out who is he. And in case you are wondering...yes, Toby's memories were erased when Tenma zapped him. Review, please?
