Stay Chill

Faith In Heroes

Luna, Lincoln, and Mason were walking with Yakov for they wanted to help him warm up to other people in life. Although there were a few people that knew about Yakov's secret, he needs to realize that times have changed and there is nothing to worry about and there are other people that have lost many parts of their body from accidents, or wars.

"I don't know about this, kids." Yakov sighed. "They will just think I am a mechanical beast, like most of the people when I was younger."

"Come on." said Luna. "Our place isn't really that perfect either. No one is. And most folk will think you're pretty cool with the robot body attached to your head. You could... even use it for good Yakov."

"Besides," said Lincoln, "there is a superhero in my comic book that has a hero named the Droid, and he is kinda like you; robotic body, but normal head, and everyone loves him."

Yakov was a little silent for a moment, and he said: "well, Lincoln, I hate to break it to you, but I am not an avid comic book fan like you are."

"What he means is," said Mason, "you can be something great if you just use your suit to fight off evil. You can be a bigger person."

Again, the mostly robotic man was silent and he didn't respoy say anything, probably because he was thinking of the words these heroes were telling him. Can he be a bigger person with this cyborg body, and use it to fight off villainy? Or would it just be his downfall eventually?

"Well, I suppose I can meet more people, but i don't know what good it will do."

"Trust us." Lincoln said. "You have not seen what me and my sister's family is like."

"Very well. But if they all get scared and cause an uproar, I blame all you kids."

At last, when they reached the house, Yakov looked very nervous, and the other sisters were watching Dream Boat in the living room. The poor man's heart sank and he was starting to look a little nervous. "Oh. You must be Yakov." Rita said. "Would you like anything?"

"Thank you for the hospitality, but I do not want anything right now." said the man in reply.

""You're Yakov huh?" asked Sam. "You're a little taller than I thought."

"Heh. Everyone says that. I have heard about you, Electrifier."

"Can we see the robot body?" asked Lana, and she got bonked on the chess by Lori.

"Lana, don't literally be rude." she scolded him."

"They told you about it, did they?" asked Yakov. "Well, I suppose there is no reason to hold back any longer." He tucked his winter coat, and revealed his cybernetic body to the rest of Luna and Lincoln's family.

The kids and Sam looked surprised by this man's appearance. "Wow. That's so awesome!" Lynn said. "Look at those guts in there."

"Well, go ahead and shun me, and antagonize me." Yakov sighed. "Bring on the rocks if you plan to through any at my head."

"What?" said Lynn Sr, "no, we would never do that."

"Why would we throw rocks at you?" Lola asked

"Because, who can love a monster like me? Just look at me! I am an Abomination, a curse to society. Everyone I have come in contact with since I had this robotic filth attached to me, everyone I have encountered treated me with hatred like I was the ultimate evil."

"How long has it been since you have been in self-isolation?" Lisa asked him curiously.

"Twenty-five years I have kept my distance from most humans. Although, I do have a son and former lover. Alas, I cannot show myself to them like this."
