Part 2 of Emily's Robot
Sadness filled my whole body. Sure, the city was saved but what was the difference? My mum was...I don’t know where she was and whether she was dead or alive. Then I thought of something. What if she was captured? I climbed back into the robot and pushed a lot of buttons. Suddenly, I heard a sound behind me. Turning around, I nearly fainted. “Mum...Mum!” It was my mum. Except, she wasn’t like my mum. She had metal arms and legs, and a metal face. She was a robot. “What happened to you?” She just stared at me. What happened next was crazy. I am still freaked out till this day. She reached out and...Strangled me!? Why would my mum do this? I knew then. She was transformed into a robot, and now she didn’t have a mind of her own. She was controlled by...Emily?
I was starting to choke. Before I fainted, I caught a glimpse of Emily. I understood everything now. Emily wasn’t dead, she was a robot, so that was why she came back. She was made of metal. She was immortal. Just then everything turned black. When I woke up, I found myself in a dark room. Then the lights were on. It was Emily. But that wasn’t what made me gasp. Her assistants were. Dressed in black dresses were Brooke and Carys. They weren’t robots. “What, why are you with her? Are you captured as well?” Carys scoffed. “Wendy, you do know that we were pretending to be your friend all along?” Then Brooke spoke. “Yeah Wendy. It’s such a good job being the assistant of Emily, We earn so much money.” I could not believe my ears. I could not believe anything! Anger ate me up from the inside. It gave me energy, power. I released it. Screaming and shouting in their faces, I said, “You two! Betrayers! Traitors! How dare you turn on me? What about all those times when I was kind to you? Remember all those days when we were happy? And you do this?” Brooke and Carys were shocked. Even Emily opened her mouth. But then she said, “You will be a very good robot Wendy. You two! Put her into the robot machine!” But I couldn’t. I will not let them do this to me. I pushed them with all my strength, and managed to jump out the window. I fell. And fell. The next thing I knew, I landed on the ground and ran to the library. When I arrived, I immediately went to the robot section.
Pulling out a book, I flipped through it until I found the page. I had read this before. The only way to fight a robot or turn it back to a human is to get some mint leaves. Robots hate that smell, and it is the only way to turn them back to normal. I ran home, and pulling out some mint leaves from the garden, I ran all the way back to the robot. Climbing up high, I hopped in again. “You again?” Said Emily, glaring at me. I pulled out the mint leaves and… “Ahh! Emily shouted as she slowley turned back to a human. I punched her right in the face. She fainted. Then I went to find my mum. Before she could strangle me again, She turned into a human at the smell of the mint. Everything was turned back to normal. I turned to my ex-best friends. “You two! How...Dare...YOU!” I grabbed a rope from my bag and tied them up. Later on that day, Brooke, Carys, and Emily were all sent to jail. My mum and I went home happily.
The End
