Humanity Or Machines
“ Does this android peak your interest Madam?” the salesman asked a short, blonde hair woman before he continued,“ Though she is just a prototype, she can accomplish anything, any other android can do and more”.
The android stared at the woman as she inspected it for any deformities, scratches or dents on the android. When the woman thoroughly searched the android and decided she wanted it, she asked, “ Yes, I would like to have this robot, how much does it cost?”
“ It only costs 100 micro coins” the salesman answered rubbing his hands together.
The woman pulled out her phone, and so did the salesman and touch their phones together before looking at their phones.
“ Transaction completed” the salesman said grinning mischievously at the woman.
“ What would you like to call your android miss?” the salesman asked.
“ Elena and my name is Mrs. Ferndale” Mrs. Ferndale answered a little annoyed.
“Ahh... I apologize Miss Ferndale” The salesman apologized, playing with his fingers.
Mrs. Ferndale ordered Elena to hold her bags before leaving and going back home.
Mrs. Ferndale lived in one of the most dangerous parts of town called Denor which was suspicious for a woman. When women hear how dangerous the place was they would normally leave and go to Samina, a safer place than Denor but not the safest. As Mrs. Ferndale entered the house slowly followed by Elena, Mrs. Ferndale gave Elena instructions.
Elena's house was littered with car parts which was also used to make androids and the tables was filled with drugs. Elena scanned the drugs and found out its name was Sleeping dust. Sleeping was an illegal drug that causes illusion and hallucinations after falling asleep from its taste. It is dangerous because it can cause Domir, which is an eternity sleeping that no one have been able to get out of. Elena began doing her tasks while steady looking at Mrs. Ferndale actions. While doing one of her tasks she heard Mrs. Ferndale yell and looked up to she her trembling as she talks into her phone.
Elena got closer to Mrs. Ferndale and listened to her conversation.
“How is Mina?” Mrs. Ferndale asked in a worried tone.
“ She's alive, one nail won't hurt her” A man answered.
“ Heinz, please don't harm her...... I...... I did what you said I bought the Sleeping dust and it is here right now” She begged.
“ I'm coming" He replied before hanging up.
Mrs. Ferndale turned around to see Elena staring at her and yelled,“ What are you doing? Start working” before leaving and going into the kitchen.
Elena followed her instructions and continued cleaning when she saw a picture frame with a picture in it. The pictures had a man holding a little girl. Elena scanned the picture before turning it around and seeing a message.
It reads‘ To the ones I love and loves me back’.
After reading the message she placed the picture frame how it was and continued cleaning.
