My name is Tom I am 29 years old, I live in Ann Arbor Michigan and I am a robot. The first day went pretty smooth, mostly I sat in my tent with my eyes closed picking up cable satellite signals with my brain, I must have watched 14 hours of an Different Strokes marathon, that was pretty cool. One of the hardest things to get used to was not being hungry, your mind would be confused at the times of day when you usually ate. I caught myself at one point gnawing on the front of my shirt, it happened to be right around lunch time.
I walked out to the center of the cave where everyone was gathered doing Yoga. "What's the point of doing Yoga if our body's are synthetic"? I questioned the group. Jeff answered, "Our bodies though synthetic must be at one with our minds, we are tuning the two as one". "Oh". I replied. "Also, it keeps our joints from rusting, literally." Father added. I joined the group and soon I began to feel what my father had just described. Both mind and body were functioning as one. Being a robot was not as hard as I had thought at first, it just takes a minute to get used to is really all it is.
After Yoga, Jolene and I played a game of basketball against the guards. After the game I heard one of the guards say to the other "Hey, man I gotta go take a leak". "Yeah me too, hold up". said the other guard. Upon hearing them, I thought to myself "Hey, I think I have to take a leak also". So I followed them to the bathroom. They turned around at the bathroom entrance at the same time and one of them said, "What the fuck do you think you doing" ? I responded "Well, to be honest with you I was thinking about taking a leak, that's pretty much it, is that not what the bathroom is for"? The guard on the left turned around to go towards the bathroom, but suddenly he swung back around. The guard knocked me to the ground with an uppercut to the face. I felt my nose, "What is this, why do I feel pain"? The voice in my head answered me. "You have synthetic nerve endings in your robotic body identical to the human body, with time you will feel more and more being re-activated". I got back up to defend myself but to my surprise both guards were already busy peeing down a hole in the center of the room. Their pee was bright neon glowing and there was clouds of steam coming from their streams. "What the fuck"? I shouted. "It's the plutonium condensation, didn't he tell you we're nuclear, you got about enough plutonium in your stomach right now to power a Russian sub, ha ha ha." laughed the guard. I started to feel a rumbling in my stomach, I knew I had to pee, but I was leery of the plutonium.
My first day as a robot was a learning experience, but all in all it was fun. I knew that soon my Father would be filling me in on the true purpose of all of this. I knew that he had a plan, or at least I hoped he did. Just then I heard Fathers' voice, "Son I need to talk to you in about an hour, I will meet you at your room, it's rather important." This was it, the meaning of it all, why was I here, I would soon find out.
