I found out about the robots a year later. A year to late. I almost died that day.
I turned nine that year. I was more grown up them I should of been. I knew more things then an average nine year old should of known. How to hunt, how to build a fire, are things some nine year olds would know how to do. But I knew how to live by myself.
No nine year old knows how to do that in my generation. But no worries, there all dead so they won't know anytime soon.
One night I woke up to a nightmare. It was about my brothers. It was their death all over again. I woke up with tears running down my face. When I heard it. A noise, not like any noise I heard in this dark chamber before. It was like squeaking metal. I jumped out of the rock bed I mad, and quietly went to go face my intruder.
Now in my cave there are two different passageways. The two passageways connect into a big cavern, which is were you enter.
I quietly tiptoe down the rock hallway. Right before I reach the cavern, I see a bright robot. I scream at the top of my lungs. The robot turns and sees me. It comes to me so fast, I don't have time to move. I grabs me around the waist, pinning my arms to my side, and lifts me up.
" You know the past" said the robot.
" No... no I don't" I said. The sound of my voice surprised me. I haven't herd my own voice for I year
"You know the past. Must eliminate." Said the robot. Its eyes began to glow red. Right before it shot me with its laser eyes, it shut down.
As I climbed down from the robots grasp. I saw a boy come out from behind the robot.
"Hi, I am Stephen!"
