The World Of Robots

The World of Robots

 

Paul was standing in the middle of a huge blue coloured room, watching the orange sky turning to dark blue through the window. He couldn’t understand why his family liked the new patterned wallpaper. “OK! Let’s start cleaning this house; we can’t stay in this smelly house forever!” Paul’s mum cried. To avoid cleaning, the boy with a sneaky smile crawled to his empty room. There was nothing in his room but very old drawers with a broken edge at the bottom. As he gazed around the room again he could see sparks coming out from a crack in the decayed drawers. Paul slowly walked to the set of drawers and opened the bottom one. “BOOM!!!” In a second everything changed.

 

‘Wow, where am I?” Paul thought. The only thing he could see was huge buildings and an enormous fake sun in the middle of the sky. There were robots moving around busily everywhere!

 

“Excuse me; I think you should follow me right now, quickly!” One strange man whispered. Paul and the strange man hid behind a stinky rubbish bin.

“Are you from the past?” the man with a nervous voice asked.

“Can I ask you a question first please? Where am I?” Paul answered.

“I guess you are in the future.” Uttered the man wearing very posh clothes.

“WHAT?” cried Paul, thinking that the old drawers took him here.

“Humans are not allowed to stay anywhere now in the future, it’s robot world. Everything is under control by robots, that’s why I hurried to bring you here; somewhere robots can’t see us. I also came from the present time but quite a long time ago. I just found out the way to go back to the present time. However I was so poor in the modern time so we are going to steal the pills that are going to be really expensive in current time.” 

 

Paul was very confused but one thing for sure was if he stole, he could be rich when he went back to the modern time. Paul knew it was bad to steal, though he still wanted to be rich.

“What are we going to do then?” said Paul with a determined voice.

“We are going to steal this pill that can fix Alzheimer’s disease. I found out this pill can get rid of Alzheimer’s disease when I was pretending to be a human slave for robots and I went to the robot pharmacy. I asked a whole lot of question about the pill to the pharmacist, saying to them that my owner wanted to know about it. After that I knew every thing about the pill” added the man.

“Wow, you are a genius. So are we going to attack them?” Paul suggested.

“No, way! We are going to pretend that we are slaves and get those pills. Also you have to try to talk like a robot when you go into the pharmacy.” Said the man as they were almost ready to walk into the store.

 

 “I will make sure no police robots come.” Confirmed the man, standing in front of the pharmacy door. “Ok then.” As Paul walked through the doorway everyone in the pharmacy pointed their guns at him. “I am the slave for the robot called……” said Paul, trying to think of one of the names. “George.” Paul finished his sentence. “Come in, what does he want?” replied the robots as they put the massive guns down. “He wants to get a whole lot of pills that can fix the humans Alzheimer’s disease.” Said Paul, struggling to speak like robots. “Here, it costs $368,904,210.” The robot exclaimed.

“My owner is going to come here and pay that money, he said he doesn’t trust me to give you the money.” The boy answered.

“I understand.” Said the robot facing Paul.

“All right, see you later!” cried Paul, almost running away from the pharmacy. But he couldn’t find the man anywhere.

 

“Psst. Hey here!” whispered the man, looking very happy to see the pills.

“You were supposed to stand here and make sure the police robots didn’t come in.” said Paul with a little mix of anger in his voice.

“But there weren’t any. Anyway give me those pills.” said the man. Suddenly, Paul regretted stealing, he knew it was wrong, but he had already stolen them. The man ran away from the little boy with the pills. Soon Paul heard siren noises as he stood outside the pharmacy. He was consumed with guilt and froze on the spot.

“You are arrested for pretending to be a robot’s slave and stealing very expensive pills.” announced the police robot. Paul thought to himself.

 

If you know it’s a bad thing to do, don’t do it.
