Sam fell on his butt with a thud, while the book landed in his lap. "ow" Sam exclaimed as he rubbed his (now sore) behind. He got back up onto his feet and looked around. He noticed that he wasn't in Boston anymore…or at least, he didn't think so.

The sky was a sickening green color and the people he noticed had a strange grin plastered onto their faces as they walked around with odd cloths and matching collars around there necks.

"were the heck am I?" Sam asked no one in particular. He started walking down the street that he had landed on. The place looked so barren, the people said nothing, they just walked around. He noticed that even though the people looked like zombies the place was relatively clean, so they had to be doing something in order to keep the place tidy.

Sam walked up to a women, who was wearing a business suite. "Excuse me mam, but do you know where I am?"

The lady said nothing and continued to walk passed him as if he didn't exist. Sam put his hands on his hips "well, that was rude" . He tried to talk to another person who was walking down the same street, but the man just walked right passed him.

"what the heck is going on!" Sam yelled.

Suddenly a loud siren rang through the air and a red glowing box flew out form behind a building. "unidentified voice pattern detected! Detain unidentified pattern immediately" The flying box flew right toward Sam as its sirens blared.

Sam took the hint and started to run away from the box. He pushed pass the zombie like people in his way "excuse me, pardon me!" he yelled as he ran into an alleyway.

"oh no, dead end!"

X~X~X

The glowing red box turned into the alleyway were he saw the unidentified voice pattern go into.

It looked around and turned on another light, that started to scan the perimeter.

"Target lost" it beeped and flew off.

X~X~X

Sam pushed off the lid of the trash can he was hiding in, and crawled up out of it. "whew, that was a close one" He breathed a sigh of relief.

Sam felt himself being picked up in that instant "oh no!" he yelled as he struggled to get free from the robotic arms.

"Unidentified pattern captured" the box beeped as it floated back up over the buildings. It turned in a certain direction very quickly, almost giving Sam whiplash. "Returning to base" the box beeped again, and in a nanosecond it was going full speed passed all of the other buildings and in the direction of a building taller than them all.

The box kept flying at its current speed, making Sam very worried when they were getting very close the building.

"Ah!, let me go, let me go!" Sam struggled more, trying to break free of the boxes grip. This box is suicidal! Sam thought to himself. In another second the box would go crashing into the side of the building. But just when Sam had closed his eyes to prepare himself for his demise, a door swung open and the box zoomed passed it unharmed.

Sam was too scared to open his eyes as he still felt the box flying at full speed. That's why he failed to notice that the box was not, in fact, suicidal, but it was just flying passed opening doors leading to its real destination.

Ten minutes of high speed flying later, then box flew passed one more door and came to a direct halt.

Sam felt that the box had stopped moving. I think I'm air sick he tried to compose himself as he lent back onto the cold metal box.

"okay, can you tell me why you interrupted my game?! I was about to break my record!" a voice yelled.

Sam was still a bit disoriented from the ride, so he just listened to the conversation the two voices were having.

"RoBox 2.5 sent a signal saying it found a voice pattern that was not on our collar listings" another voice sighed "you know this could be a person who escaped"

"nah, RoBox is probably just malfunctioning. I mean come on! We're the badest of the bad!" the voice laughed

The other voice sounded annoyed "your really overconfident aren't you? Have you forgotten that your last mission didn't go so well?"

"how was I supposed to know he wasn't going to be there! Its like he vanished or something!"

"he couldn't have just vanished.."

Sam heard the sound of doors sliding and feet stepping into (what he thought) was the room he and the so called 'RoBox' were in. He found the power to actually open his eyes and look to see just who the two voices belonged to.

"Joe? Fred?"
