Chapter 13: Suzan The Scientist, Once A Human, Now A Robot!

Aaron and his allies were then at Floroso's house where they held onto the robot on its two feet. They began looking for how to make the robot go back to its feet again. Wios was looking at the robot based on its appearance. The robot looked Feminine.

"Let's see… Looks Feminine…" Wios said, "Ponytail. Wears goggles and a skirt–"

"--Ah-ha!" Aaron said as he saw a little hatch that was on the robot's back, "Feels like some sort of tank!"

"Hmm… Maybe it needs oil…" Lato said,

"Oil!" Floroso said, "Huh, let me see if I do have some in my backyard…"

Floroso went to the backyard of his house which was a garden for growing vegetables. He then went into his shed and saw a gallon of motor oil.

"There we are!" He said as he grabs it, "Don't know why I have a gallon with me, but it does matter!"

Floroso then went back inside to fill the robot's tank with motor oil.

"There we go!" He said as Aaron closed the hatch,

"This should do something…" Aaron said, "I hope…"

Then, the robot started to stand on her own as everyone let go. She started powering up as she was on. The robot then felt like she had a migraine in her head and was a little weak.

"Oh my…" She said with a British accent, "What on Vothars has happened?"

She looked around and saw Aaron, Lato, Wios and Floroso.

"You four filled me up with oil, yes?" She wondered,

"We did." Floroso replied,

"Yes, we did." Aaron said, "You were abandoned in The Garden Of Wonders and we took you to Floroso's house to fill you back up with oil that Floroso surprisingly has."

"The Garden Of Wonders…" The robot said, "I went to the place to try and hide from them…"

"Who?"

"Some cult of freaks."

"Where did they come from?" Floroso wondered as he and the others were confused,

"I… I don't know… I can't remember what they look like…"

"Well, do you remember who you are?" Aaron wondered,

"I do! My name is Suzan, and I used to be human like half of you here!"

Everyone was surprised.

"Wait, really?!" Aaron said,

"Of course!" Suzan replied as she pointed to her head, "Inside my robotic skull, my human brain is protected by layers of machinery!"

"So… How and when did you become a robot in the first place?" Wios wondered,

"It all started during my time as a scientist back on Earth." Suzan replied as she told them her story, "I was working in a laboratory back in my home of London."

"Huh, you were a scientist from Earth…" Floroso said,

"Yup, and then, the laboratories exploded while I was researching!"

Everyone was confused.

"I'm sorry, how did it explode?" Lato wondered,

"That's the strange part!" Suzan replied, "I don't know!"

"That explains it."

"But then, my friends and co-workers came in and noticed that my brain was still alive!"

"Thank the Gods for skulls…" Floroso said,

"Oh yeah! Once they got my brain, they took it to Theoi Blela and then made a robotic version of myself! …Which is who you're all seeing today."

"And then they transferred the brain to your robotic self and then here you are." Aaron said,

"Mhmm! I still help them with their work here and there. I was basically sent out to explore Theoi Blela's science. …I haven't seen them in a week and I forgot where they are."

"Well, we're sure to find your friends again."

"Thanks. I'm still curious on how Vothars differs from Earth in terms of science, so that's why I'm here in Theoi Blela researching until a cult of freaks almost gave me hell!"

"Whoever those freaks are, they'll pay!" Wios said,

"Ha ha! Yeah, you're damn right!"

"Well… I think we've had enough here." Floroso said, "Let's head back to your flower shop so that you can know Suzan a little more, Aaron. Or you can have Suzan know you a little more."

"Right…" Aaron said, "What about The Garden Of Wonders? I was wondering if you needed any assistance?"

"Hmm… You know, running the garden on my own is a struggle sometimes… Yeah, I'll let you know when I'm ready for you, so that I can train you with your Flower Power."

"Alright! Excellent!"
