Artificial Intelligence
Lachlan puts a mini vinyl onto the mini record player and it starts playing a song called 'THUNDER' by imagine dragons.
[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]
Half way, through the song, I say,
"Lachlan, I really don't like this song! I'm changing it!" So I move the record a bit and it starts playing another song. It plays, 'On Top of the World'.
[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]
After 'ON TOP OF THE WORLD', we listen to more songs. Eventually, mid-night comes and we all stop to refuel the Pegasus' and the Super Cars by a stream that glimmers in the moonlight. While we refuel the SuperCars, Cogsworth and Rob slurp up water from the stream. After both of them finish slurping up water, Cogsworth strides ahead trying to impress Rob who takes no notice of him. Cogsworth is disappointed that Rob didn't even notice him so he tries galloping around her. Yet Rob just simply acts like an ordinary machine without any personality or artificial intelligence. Rob goes toward the campfire we prepared and goes into 'SLEEP MODE'.
Cogsworth went to rest by her sleeping robotic body. Tia looks at her sad robot pet and then goes up to Lachlan.
"Hey! Lachlan!" She exclaims.
"Yes?" He asks.
"Um... I was wondering if you could make Xander's Pegasus; Rob a bit smarter. You know, like Cogsworth" explains Tia.
"Cogsworth was originally just like Rob without personality but then there was some kind of glitch in his program which I think caused his intelligence" replies Lachlan.
"So what do you think caused the glitch?" Asks Tia.
"Well... he was struck by lightening. NOW BEFORE YOU GET ANY IDEAS! You shouldn't go pushing Rob into Lightening's path! What happened to Cogsworth was pure luck okay?! There's no knowing what would happen if you tried it again!" Explains Lachlan. In the dark of the night, I can make out clouds. Not fluffy white clouds, but thick grey storm clouds!
"Well speak of the devil!" Says Tia with a smirk.
"Tia! Please don't" he says before going with the rest of us to a cave smothered in old thick textured green vines. Tia and Rob are left alone outside the cave. The clouds crash against each other angrily like plates colliding causing a massive earth quake. Lightening cracks the atmosphere. Tia wonders whether she should take Rob to the cave or leave him to get struck by lightening. Two things could happen if she leaves Rob. One, she'll gain artificial intelligence like Cogsworth or two, she'll die.
