Ok, here is the next chapter. I DON'T OWN ASTRO BOY THE MOVIE OR THE 2003 SERIES!
Chapter 5
Toby was still confused, looking at his feet. At first he got scared and looked around, his flight without any control. When he tried his best to control it, his jets would turn off for a time, making him fall for a few time, then they would activate again.
Meanwhile, Astro tried to avoid the robot's punches. Toby's jets kept turning on and off every time, making him feel weaker. The robot looked back at Toby, and widened it's eyes when he saw him.
"I didn't know you could fly! "He" didn't tell me anything about this" it complained. Toby looked at it, confused, still trying to control his new ability.
"Who is he?" asked. The robot gasped.
"Uh…can't tell" it replied. Toby shrugged his shoulders and looked down. Astro, not being to stop his curiosity any more, looked at the other side of the robot, and was amazed to see Toby flying.
"Hey! How are you doing that?" he asked. Toby shook his head and suddenly started flying around the robot.
"I-I can't control this! Help!" he exclaimed as he tried his best to stop himself, without success. The robot tried several times to grab him, but Toby was just too fast for the enormous robot. Astro took advantage of Toby's flight and knocked down the robot. The robot mysteriously deactivated. Toby's rockets turned off, making him fall again. This time they wouldn't turn on. Astro flew towards him and grabbed him.
"Whew! That was a close one. Thanks" thanked Toby. However, Astro gave him a confused look.
"I have to take you to the Ministry of Science. Dr. Oshay has to make you some analysis" Astro explained. Toby shivered and struggled.
"No!" he exclaimed and managed to activate his jets, then fly away. Astro started following him. Noticing this, Toby looked behind and tried to fly as fast as he could.
'Whew! I can finally control this' thought happily while looking at Astro, who suddenly stopped.
"Stop!" he exclaimed and pointed at something. Toby turned slowly around and saw a solid wall in front of him. He tried to stop, but failed and crashed, passing out. Astro grabbed him and sighed, then flew towards a tall building that had a rocket symbol.
"Ugh…what hit me?" Toby asked and sat up slowly, holding his head.
"Oh, so you have awaken" he heard a voice that he recognized.
"Astro?...Where am I?" Toby asked slowly.
"In the Ministry of Science" replied Astro, making Toby gasp.
"And have you made something to me?" asked worriedly. Astro shook his head.
"We were about to, but you woke up before we could" Toby sighed in relief and saw the same old man come into the room. When he saw both Toby and Astro, he blinked several times.
"What's wrong doctor?" Astro asked. The man then cleared nervously his throat.
"Uh…you both look so much alike" explained. Toby and Astro looked at him confused then looked at themselves. Astro widened his eyes, but Toby was still clueless.
"Really? I can't really remember my face" he said with a sheepish smile. Toby looked around and saw a large window. He got up and got closer to it, looking curiously at his reflection.
"Wow! It's true!" Toby exclaimed and looked back at Dr. Oshay.
"What is your name?" Dr. Oshay asked. Toby looked up, trying to remember his name. He smiled when the name popped in his mind.
"Tobio, but everybody calls me Toby" he replied. Dr. Oshay got even more surprised. Both kids looked at him, completely clueless.
"Does that name mean something to you?" asked Toby. Dr. Oshay was hesitant to answer at first.
"…No" he lied. Toby frowned.
'I'm sure he is lying to me' thought. Astro called him. Toby nodded and walked towards him. When he reached him, Astro showed him a toy car.
"Hey! That looks like the fish I was chasing the other time!" Toby exclaimed and tried taking the car, but Astro moved it aside.
"Oh no! I picked it up first! Get your own!" he said with a smile. Toby frowned and crossed his arms.
"No fair" he whispered angrily and looked at Astro playing happily with the car. Toby sighed and looked up, trying to remember something else. An old man that looked like Dr. Oshay popped in his mind.
"I remember!" he exclaimed, attracting Astro's and the doctor's attention. Toby turned around and pointed at Dr. Oshay.
"You remind me of a doctor that was friend of my dad. He was called Dr. Elefun" he explained, Astro and Dr. Oshay looked at him completely puzzled.
"Who is he?" asked Astro. Toby scratched his head.
"I can only remember that he is a doctor" he replied. Still Astro and Oshay looked at him confused. Toby sighed and got up, walking towards an open door.
"Where are you doing?" asked Oshay.
"Back to the shelter" Toby replied and walked closer to the exit door.
"Shelter? Don't you have a home?" asked Astro. Toby scratched nervously his head.
"I don't know. I can't remember" he replied and was walking outside when he felt a hand touch his shoulder. He turned around and saw Dr. Oshay, who was smiling at him.
"You can stay in our house in the meanwhile" he offered. Toby smiled weakly.
'I guess there's no other option' he thought. "Sure, thanks"
Astro smiled.
"It seems I will have a partner, huh?" he said happily. Toby nodded and smiled back. Dr. Oshay looked at his clock.
"Well…it's late already. We have to go home. Tobio, follow us please" he said and walked outside the door, Astro behind him.
'I'm not really used to people calling me Tobio' Toby thought, but shrugged his shoulders and followed the 2.
Minutes later, the 3 arrived to a small home. Toby seemed pleased when he walked inside it and saw how big it looked.
"Tobio, your room is upstairs. Astro, guide him, please" Oshay said. Astro nodded, grabbed Toby's arm and ran upstairs. When the doctor was sure he couldn't be heard, he sighed.
"I don't understand. Why would Tenma build another robot that looks just like Astro, maybe even with the same powers? Tenma never ceases to amaze me" he whispered and sat slowly in a couch.
Astro opened a door and turned on the lights, then pushed Toby slowly in.
"So…this will be my room?" Toby asked. Astro nodded.
"Yep. I will see you tomorrow in the morning" he said and closed the door behind him. Toby sat down in his bed and looked outside the window, then laid down in the bed and immediately fell asleep.
"Tobio…You will be the king, the one who will dominate the robots" Toby heard a voice. However, it was not the same he heard in his last dream.
"What? Who are you?" he asked, but didn't get a reply.
Ok, that's the end of the chapter. Review, please?
