THE OCEAN
our story begin on the ocean, with wind and rain and thunder and lightning and waves. A hurricane roared and raged through the night. And in the middle of the chaos a cargo ship was sinking
Down
Down
Down
To the ocean floor.
The ship left hundred of crates floating on the sur-face. But as the hurricane thrashed and swirled and knocked them around , the crates also began sinking into the depths. One after, they were swallowed up by the waves, until only five crates remained. By morning the hurricane was gone. There were no clouds, no ships, no land in sight. There was only calm water and clear skies and those five crates lazily bobbing along an ocean current. Days passed. And then a smudge of green appeared on the horizon. As the crates drifted closer, the soft green shape slowly sharpened into the hard edges of a wild, rocky island. The first crates rode to shore on a tumbling, rumbling waves and then crashed against the rocks with such force that the whole thing burst apart.
Now, reader, what I haven't mentioned is that tightly packed inside each crate was a brand-new robot. The cargo ship had been transporting hundred of them before it was swept up in the storm. Now only five robot were left. Actually, only four were left, because when that first crate crashed against the rocks, robot inside shattered to pieces.
The same thing happened to the next crate. It crashed against the rocks, and robot parts flew everywhere. Then it happened to the next crate. And the next. Robot limbs and torsos were flung onto ledges. A robot head splashed into a tide pool. A robot skittered into waves.
And then came the last crate. It followed the same path as the other, but instead of crashing against the rocks, it sloshed against the remains of the first four crates. Soon, more waves were heaving it up out of the water it soared through the air, spinning and glistening until it slammed down onto a tall shelf of rocks. The crates was cracked and crumpled, but the robot island was safe.
