Wall-e 2

Prologue

The warm breeze tickled Hannah's skin as she nervously walked outside. It was new, this whole walking thing. She hadn't done it ever since she was born... she grew up in one of the Axiom's hover chairs. Well, until a few days ago.

She stumbled a few times while walking outside, and soon started crying and got down to kneel.

Her mother scooted over towards her the best she could. "Oh, dear, it'll be alright.." she whispered.

She struggled to push herself up again. It wasn't odd for thirteen year olds to not be able to walk, but still... it was embarrassing, falling over and crying just because you can't walk...

She had studied, thousands of years ago, children could walk before they were even six! It was amazing. She wished she could have walked when she was six. But she wouldn't have happily lived back then. There were no robots, no hover chairs, no Axiom, nothing good. Only stupid things called "laptops." Ha.

Now, they had these things called robots. They could do pretty much whatever you wanted! Sure, Auto almost destroyed humankind, but still... that was only one robot. Oh, and that little one that helped him out... and all of those other bots that stopped Wall-e and Eve.. But that's not the point. I mean, there are bad humans too, right? Wall-e and Eve were great robots!

 Then, all of the sudden, Hannah saw Eve. She was just hovering about, taking a break from gardening perhaps. Eve turned her head and noticed Hannah. Eve rushed over and helped her up, not saying a word. After all, robots rarely ever speak. 

Once Hannah was again on her feet, she thanked Eve. Eve replied with a simple, "You're welcome," and helped Hannah to her destination.

Most of the people easily caught on to walking, but Hannah? She was never going to get there...

"Thanks again," Hannah mumbled, still embarrased. Eve just nodded and hovered away, probably to go plant some crops or something.

Hannah helped her mother plant things -- while sitting down. Hannah and her parents quickly worked while debating if you could really grow pizza.

Once they were done with that garden bed, Hannah looked around. It was amazing, just how much they had gotten done in just a few days. It was great, how much people could do if they worked hard.

There was still ways to make food on the Axiom, since it was going to be quite a while before they actually had a good amount of plants. Though Hannah wasn't sure if she could take another cupcake-in-a-cup, or hamburger-in-a-cup, or really anything out of a cup. Did they at least have spinach-in-a-cup? No, because the Axiom was full of lazy people riding around on hover chairs and eating junk food who had no worry for their health because they honestly had nothing to live for anymore.

But was Hannah unsteadily stood and looked around, she thought, Everything is going to be okay.
