I told them all about the men and the device, my mother gave me that look when she did not believe me.
"You've got to believe me," I said.
"Son go and take a nap, you've had a very long day," My mother glanced at my sister who was acctually interested in my story.
"I don't know why but they are trying to wipe us out!"
"Ok then, I will see what I can do," my mother said softly.
"We have to go now!" I commanded.
"Luke, go to your room...now!" she commanded.
I marched up to my room and slammed my door behind me. Why wouldn't they believe me, what if the men come and attack our home and kill my family!

I quickly gathered anything that I could and jumped out my window. If they wouldn't tell the Braves then I would. My bow was outside, so I sneaked there without my mother seeing me and ran for Mothers Rise, basically the capital city. I was running as fast as I could, I needed to alert everyone before they made their move. I saw a few hunters coming down the road with their bows in hand."Stop!" I shouted.
"What is the meaning of this," said one of the men.
"There are people in these woods that are poisening the turkeys!"
"Get out of out of our way boy!" he commanded. Then one of them pointed a arrow at me so I stepped aside and they walked past. Hunters to proud for their own good, if they wanted to die, then so be it. So I went on to Mothers Rise to warn them, it was another 2 kilometers to get there. I saw a few Braves so I went up to them and tryed to explain, so I did convince them to go look but only later. So I ran onwards, passing many people and villages. Now I could see Mothers Rise quite clearly.

I passed through the market place to come to a big gate which was the entance to Morthers Rise. I walked inside rushed up to the top of the wall where the Captain was standing.
"Captain, sir!," I called.
"What is the matter this time," he said boringly. "Men, poisening the turkeys in the southern forest, I don't know why but they are trying to weaken us so they can attack the Sacred Land!"
"How many were there," he asked.
"About five of them, but I followed two of them and(taking a breath)...and killed them!"
"What were they wearing," he asked sternly.
"Black and white masks with black armour."
"Thank you Luke, I will look into this immediately!"
"Thank you Captain I really appreciate it, my house is very close to where they were so please hurry, I can show you the way."
"No you rest, I will take my stroungest warroirs to investigate this matter."

The Captain left and I rested up, I tookout the device when I was alone and put it on. Again the blue aura appeared around me and scanned the room, a ladies voice came on and said,"You are currently in a Metal devil, built 10 000 years ago to make a safer enviroment." I was startled but then asked,"Who made this...umm...Metal...Devil."
"Faro Automated Solutions founded by Ted Faro." Who is Ted Faro and why did he create robots.
"Why did he create robots."
"In 2044, 10000 years ago, he made robots to clean up the enviroment for reasons of Climate Change." What, 10000 years ago. Just as I was about to ask another question I heard a faint but loud bang coming from outside. I quickly gathered my bow and went outside. In the distance there was smoke coming from Mothers Watch!
