We have to hurry. The humans are coming. But, we, the Gelinitelce will survive. I know I say that, but we have almost nowhere to go on Kilos. We can't even flee on other planets, because they already control space pathways.

We can see the spaceship and the robots landing and destroying everything in their path!!

I have to survive too. Where is my Mom? I need to get to her before running away.
“Mom, where are you?” I yell in the house.

“Sab, hurry, go take your energy shield and your interference bomb! Just the important!” My mom shouts back at me.

I run to the table at the center of the house, take the black box and put it in my pocket and do the same with a blue ball.
My mom caught up with me, and as the procedure said, we hurried to the carjet. These speed transports were used to flee from the robots. The carjet started flying away by itself because it didn’t need any driver.

I have to stay calm! I know panicking does not help. The screen that shows us our kind being killed doesn’t help in any way. Also, I know that they can catch up with us, even with the crazy speed of the carjets.

While closing the screen, I ask my mom, “why do the humans keep attacking us?”

“Sab, it’s not the humans but the robots that attack us. The humans started attacking us one hundred thousand years ago, but our spies at that time said that they could not find any humans anywhere 1 thousand years after the start of the one-sided war. The humans were nowhere to be found, but the robots were continuing the war. They continued to attack Kilos and the other planets in the neighbourhood. The robots continued like that, in the same way, until today.”
Suddenly we received an announcement in the carjet. “The robots have destroyed our destination, we will head now for Saillonara. “
Ah, they are doing the same thing over and over, because it works. So, humans created robots to do the same task over and over. Those man-made machines conquered territory and attacked civilizations that posed a threat to their expansion. I also think that humans somehow became instinct.

My mom interrupted my thinking to say that we arrived at Saillonara. We walked the street. I think I was about to realize something. So, if there is no one to control them, no one can stop them anymore. They are just some programs doing what they were asked to do.

Boom!

I know it! The same strategy!

Boom! Boom!

The robots are already at Saillonara!

Boom! Boom! Boom!
