The Tenma Incident (Filler Chapter)

"The top story of today is known as the Tenma Incident. At the robotic doctors lab, there was a large-scale break-in yesterday afternoon. Blueprints, machinery and projects were all stolen from the corporation." Dr Tenma flicked off the hospital room television, a heavy sigh leaving him as the words sank in. No, he didn't care about the stolen items, the prints or gadgets they had taken. Something much more valuable had been taken away from them. His eyes drifted to his son who sat in a chair across the room. Toby hadn't spoken since he'd rebooted, and he hadn't moved from that spot since his arrival. Dr Tenma could only feel remorse for his son, with the condition his leg was in, there was a slim chance in getting her back.

You woke up with a jolt, the world around you now black and white. Looking around, your non-existent heart pounding in your chest, you almost stopped breathing at the sight. This place was all too familiar to you. Tears started to form on the corners of your eyes at the door behind you was flung open. You tried to sit yourself up, to run away in every way possible, but thick chains were wrapped tightly around your wrists and ankles.

"My, my, my." His cold voice filled the room, heavy footsteps making their way towards your form. You struggled with as much force as you could muster in your panic but it still wasn't enough.

No!

"Look which pile of crap has crawled back to its master!" He boomed. Each stomp of his foot was a warning in your chest. He was getting closer and closer!

Not again!

"It's time you got what you deserve, bot!" You wouldn't have it, blasting the chains with all you had. As the smoke cleared and your creators wicked face entered your view, the chains on your wrists still tight, you had only one thought.

I'm coming, Toby.
