Wall-E au.

XR was the only active robot on earth.

His directive: Fix whatever is around.

XR looked up at the blue less sky and wondered was there more than to just fixing things. He looked at his small greenhouse of plants. After the wild outbreak, XR was the last few machines that worked and luckily he relies on the sun energy but he was tired of the same routine.

He wishes something different happens but what?

As he entered in his ship cruiser with his collection from time to time, he put away the recent collection of treasure. He found a combination of a spoon and a fork, another cube with colors and a few skulls of animals. XR smiled until he saw a human couple clench each others hands in a loving manner through the makeshift t.v. he was able to fix. He did the same with his hands but frown.

*What was he hoping to gain from this?* He looked up at the screen and realized the answer.

Answer: need of companionship.

But how can he have that? There is no other robot like him. He saw a small roach he keeps as a friend or in this case, a pet.

XR looked up at the night sky, and saw the sky full of stars.

Query: wish for a long term companion or something new.

XR closed his eyes and wished for it to come true.

As he heard the winds blowing a little hard, he pushed a button and soon enough, shields were up and he treaded to cabinet and allowed his body to hibernate with the song We'll meet again by Vera Lynn playing. As he slowly drifted off, he wondered if he will be alone or will there be someone else.

The next day

XR went to the city to find something to fix and saw nothing really work even with his abilities. He saw at least the sign working but nothing else aside "City where dreams come true".

He wondered why hasn't his dream come true.

But he heard a boom from the sky. He was confused and saw something coming down.

He made his way to the empty landscape and saw something coming out. He hid behind a rock and saw another robot only this one was more… different. He was tall with no legs but was floating up a foot above. His head was connected and unlike his cylinder head and body, this robot has a somewhat human form and his head was an upside down with a slit optic and a large monocle.

XR smiled and looked at the robot's hands and despite they look menacing, they were special and beautiful. The robot began to analyze the land but as soon as the ship he came from blasted off into the sky, he saw the robot look up and relaxed. XR saw its wings coming out and was amazed by it and the robot flew with so much joy and happiness. XR smiled until he hit a rock and the robot shot an energy blast. He waited for a minute and began what he did before.

XR shook nervously.

Be careful what you wish for.

XR followed behind the robot as it scanned for something and XR blushed at how it was cute when it was curious at some things and saw it was looking for someplace to sleep and found a junk yard.

XR thought of an idea.

The next day as the robot woke up, he raised it's brow at the makeshift form of stuff to look like him but the minute he tapped on it, it crumbles.

XR frowned that it didn't work so he kicked a bolt but it ricochet back him and he was crushed by junk.

XR stood by the side as the robot continues to search and he saw his little friend and as it crawled to the robot and before it blast it, the robot froze and saw the bug. It reached out and chuckles as it crawls up its hand and the robot grinned. XR chuckles but ran fearfully as the robot blast and corners him. Before he could react to blast him but the roach jumps on his shoulders to stop it and ran to XR's side. Nos tilted in confusion but shook it's head and began to once more scan again.

Need to think this through.

As the robot continued to scanned, he frowned.

Directive: find any signs of life

Status: none.

It continued to scan whether or not life is sustainable here and that was his directive. But he noticed he was being pulled and had a hard time moving to see it was a magnet. He was so enraged, he pulled his hand and charged it so much, he blasted it off and continued to let his rage out on it.

XR saw the robot coming back down and stared at the mess he made and felt ridiculous. XR could see it was sad so he made his way to the robot and stopped as he did not want to be shot at again. As he was having trouble figuring out what to do, the said robot saw him and floated to him.

"Salutations?" the robot spoke.

XR jumped up and saw the robot behind him bended his body to meet his level. XR blushed and decided to say something.

"Hi?" XR said nervously.

The robot looked confused and remembered the little robot had been following him everywhere.

"Why have you been following me?" the robot asked.

XR was nervous

*I had hoped to see what your like?*

*I wanted to talk to you?*

*I never met another like you.*

"What is your directive?" he asked curiously.

XR grinned and looked around to see a beat up car and began to fix it. The robot was curious at how much the little robot had done in two to five minutes.

XR picked out his key finger and started the car but saw it needed energy.

The robot seeing this floated to the car and opened the cars top and saw it needed a charged so he connected his hand and soon the car started. XR was happy and saw the robot clapped it hands in awe.

XR bowed and spoke "Tada!"

The robot was awed.

"What is your directive?" XR asked.

The robot tensed, "Classified."

"Oh." XR felt he was disturbing his mission and felt guilty.

The robot felt guilty and wanted to talk more to the robot. "What is your name little one?" He asked.

XR smiled nervously. "XR."

"XR" he said curiously and smiled how he likes the sound of it.

XR swooned when he said his name.

"Name?"

"Nos-4-A2"

"Nos"

"Nos-4-A2"

"Nos!" XR said happily. He was happy to hear and meet Nos until he got a warning of a storm coming in and so without thinking, he grabbed Nos's hand and lead him quickly to the broken down ship Cruiser. As he lead Nos in he was surprised to see so many different stuff in a ship.

"Does this ship work?"

XR shook his head, "The power works pretty good…. Just not for flying." XR spoke.

Nos tilted his head. "Are you not lonely being here? Why not leave and explore?"

"It may get lonely from time, but there are so many things here that the organics left so when I am not fixing, I find stuff laying around. Like this!" XR grabbed a cube with colors and handed it to Nos and saw the curiosity in his optics. He grabbed another item and carefully. Showed it to Nos and saw the cube finished. Nos held the glass object by the metal rim and it lighted up.

XR was surprised but when he was handed it back, it was off. There were so many different objects XR showed to Nos and he smiled how Nos enjoyed the items but when he saw how intrigued he was about the movie. XR smiled and dance or tried to and now followed allong... Only to make dents on the ground. XR stopped him and saw Nos was filled with guilt but XR assured him by showing him a simple twirl. Nos did the same but when he went too fast.. XR was hit across and smashed his optic.

Nos saw the little bot was hurt and damaged.

"I am so sorry! Please let me help you." Nos tried to help but XR held his hand and his crossed with Nos. XR blushed and let go and Nos was surprised by the feeling but shooed it away but it was still there.

"Don't worry, I can do it. Just look," XR pulled his optic out and grabbed the new one and fixed it in. "See all better" XR showed Nos and the taller bot was relief. When he saw a small silver metal box, he grabbed one and surpirsed to see fire came out.

This amazed XR but was in awed how it illuminated at Nos and thought maybe he'll like the new item he found in his garden. He grabbed it as it was in a mug. He showed it to Nos but froze when Nos chest was beeping hysterically and optic so wide, his chest panel opened up and force field the plant in him and shut down in sleep mode.

Nos?...

NOS?!...

NOS-4-A2!
