Chapter 4: What We've Done

The next night...

BroBot: ":(."

BroBot has just returned from the military base, badly damaged and in need of repairs.

Dr. LeeAnn: "(sighing) I should've waited a little while before sending you there."

BroBot: ":(."

She deactivates B.R.O.B.O.T. and grabs a toolbox off a nearby shelf.

Dr. LeeAnn: "(deep breath) I'd better start with the software, then the hardware."

She begins to fix up BroBot.

Dr. LeeAnn: "(shedding a tear) Just like before..."

Several years ago...

Dr. LeeAnn: "(thinking) Where's the problem?"

Dr. LeeAnn and Dr. Brim are currently trying to design a robot able to lift large chunks of debris to save lives trapped underneath falling buildings.

Dr. Brim: "(sweating) I'm trying to find anything missing in the design..."

Twenty minutes later...

Dr. LeeAnn: "Maybe it's the position of the energy source?"

The blueprints they're examining puts the energy generator a little too far away from the arms.

Dr. Brim: "I think you're onto something LeeAnn!"

In previous trials, the copper wire connecting the source to the arms was severed.

Dr. Brim: "We can try to also make the wires more durable to keep the electrons flowing properly as well!"

Dr. LeeAnn: "Then let's get to work!"

The two spend days working on the robot, most nights unable to sleep a wink, but they finally do it.

One week later...

Dr. LeeAnn: "(deep breath) Here we go."

The two stand in front of a 5 ton boulder and a large, bulky robot and a hefty audience waiting with anticipation.

Dr. Brim: "Activating TremorBot prototype."

The robot springs to life, now walking towards the boulder.

Dr. LeeAnn: "(sweating) Please work, please work..."

The robot picks up the boulder effortlessly, dazzling the audience.

Dr. Brim: "It works. It actually works!"

The two begin to jump with joy.

Modern times...

Dr. LeeAnn: "There, that should do it."

BroBot is reactivate, fully repaired.

Dr. LeeAnn: "Okay, now your next stop is going to be the coal mines nearby that base from before."

BroBot: ":(."

Dr. LeeAnn: "Sorry, but once you take down the TremorBot inside you'll be in town for the remainder of the Bots."

BroBot: ":l."

BroBot leaves to head back out and towards the mines.

Dr. LeeAnn: "Nearly halfway there Brim."

Meanwhile...

Dr. Brim is sitting inside a dark room with noting but a large, wooden desk and a computer.

Dr. Brim: "(menacingly) It'll only be a matter of time before that junk heap of a hero is dismantled and I purge away that antivirus."

Brim is working on some weapon design on the monitor...
