Here it is. I may change stuff around; it's not that long.
My Story:
I was ready. My weird and sometimes fat dragons were ready. Tomorrow was the day when our guests arrived!
A rock dropped in my stomach. Crud, I thought. If Tommy's coming he'll make fun of my dragons! Notgoodnotgoodnotgood!!!. Instantly I made them all exercise so they weren't all fat and no scales. Of course they whined and complained, but they couldn't have flabby skin forever. Then I went to bed. It had been a long hard day with another batch of dead crops, withering and decomposing slowly. Famine would strike soon, and the dragons would not be happy.
Ohmygeeze did it take forever. A whopping two seconds!!! Usually it takes one-point-five; sheesh. I was really stressed out about the next day, when everyone arrived and started to yell about my fat dragons. I regretted feeding them all those stupid high-calorie Zazzberries.
I dreamt, like most normal people do. But this strange dream would change my life forever. Or just the next day. Whatever works.
So in this weird dream of mine I suddenly heard a loud "Fweebonk". A fweebonk is a very unusual sound, but at the time, did I care? No. I was happily skipping around, ladeedeededa, on my islands; one minute on this one, the next on the other. Huh, when do I ever skip? Oh well. Anywho, I was on the first island when a big rumble stopped my skipping self. Wurt was that?
The islands shook. My dragons started to bounce uncontrollably. Then an odd colored mist overtook them all!
I gasped. NOOOOOOOO!!! This SUUUUUUUCKS!!!!!
Then I stopped screaming. Wurt the...? An odd scene, shocking, began to unfold before my very own eyes.
All my beautiful <not> dragons were robots!
All my gems were these lumpy crystal things!!
All my DragonCash was...hey, what is that stuff?
I screamed for as much as I was worth. Then I woke, panting and sweating.
"Ah, good thing that was just a dream!" I said cheerfully, walking out of my nice cottage. Then my eyes saw a terrible sight!
It. Was. Real.
Little did I know at the time that the dream was a type of future telling. At the time I did not worry about these things, but that's what my doctor told me.
Again I screamed my head off, and I ran into a wall. Where did that come from anyway? My park never had walls. Another sign that everything was changing rapidly.
I was going to die right then and there. My wizard friends would also die but of laughter; they came to see DRAGONS. Not robots! Ugh, Tommy was going to make fun of these weird bots even more so than my dragons. I instantly thought of how much my life sucked.
I warped over to the fourth island and immediatly struck up a conversation with a bot.
"Aren't you a Rainbow dragon?" I asked it.
"No. Astro bot." Firm opinion; I was willing enough to fight with it.
"You're a Rainbow, idiot. I remember!"
"Astro bot."
"Nuh-uh. You were a Rainbow dragon, mister, and I know that your name was Kiseki!"
"Astro bot. Name Steve."
The argument went on for a little over forty-five minutes. Steve would not be convinced that even his past self was a Rainbow. All he remembers is the bot body, and there was no way to convince him that he once had scales and was rainbow-colored. A close-minded sorta guy.
Suddenly all of my friends warped in on the once-Rare Island where Steve lived! Oh crud!! Whattodowhattodo???!?!!
I grinned sheepishly. "Urmm, hi there, we're having some...technical difficulties?" Gawsh, what a fool did I look like!
Tommy looked around. He grinned. I think he liked it, which was a shocker. It wasn't log before he whispered that my bots were fat and lazy. He will never change.
Fletch also looked around and smiled. "What a fabulously gay park, Eternity!" An odd choice of words, but whatever.
I had a feeling in my stomach, but not a bad one like the day before. I had a feeling that my little park of robots were meant to be. We were a family, a team, and we would be a team.
I never stopped fighting with Steve. In my older age it grew difficult but in the end it grew to be sort of fun. Steve was never shaken from his beliefs, which was fine for me. I liked listening to the whirs and sounds he made in the morning, and when he argued it was always "Astro bot. Steve."
But when I think about that first day I remember my friends all looking to the sky. Then a little sign crashed down hard on my poor head. Everyone laughed. I rubbed it, and read the sign, which said:
THE END

You are kidding Maidy, your story is really great, you have a great talent in telling stories !
I agree Maidy. You are too humble. I really felt like I was right in the story. That takes talent girl! I'm a huge book reader so I should know. ;D
*blushing*. Thank you GT. I appreciate your kind words. I'm glad you liked your character. I don't think you are as absent-minded or obsessed with plants as much as the character as that was for story purposes, but you definitely are as sweet, nice and helpful.

Ten more days to enter the contest and only two entries so far. I know we have some aspiring writers here, so let's see your talent! Don't be shy. The story can take any direction. Cyber-punk style, horrific dystopian, classical mythology-esque, pro to-neo-romantic, tommy-style! You decide!

THE END
I'm a bit confused. I think this should of been put in the DV story thread?
Oh? Sorry they wanted a story gave it mah best shot
Okay here's my attempt at a story. Hope you enjoy it.
Bot story
Pixie heard her name over the intercom. She was to report to the flight deck immediately. Groaning Pixie got out of her bunk and shrugged into her flight suit. Being a cheerful happy go lucky person she found her self to be in good humor by the time she got dressed and headed out of her cabin. Pixie had shoulder length brown hair and a twinkle in her green eyes. She was an experienced space traveler and loved her job. So with anticipation she reported for duty.
Poppy, a tall lean man in his early forties with salt and pepper hair and laugh lines at the corner of his eyes, was Pixie's superior. He was waiting for her when she got to the command center. "Pixie" he said. "Your next assignment has you going into deep space. There are rumors of strange happenings in the asteroid belt crystal D9 in the omega system and we want you to check it out".
"Yes sir" replied Pixie (she is always very formal when on duty). "When do We leave sir?"
"This assignment is of utmost importance so I want you and your crew to leave immediately". Poppy explained.
Pixie's ship was a B class fast traveling spotter ship having a crew of her and her first mate Myke. She wondered where he was as she tapped in his ID into the personal communicator. "What do ya want now cap'n. I'm in the middle of this game and am winning at the moment".
"What game are you playing this time Myke?"
"I'm not quite sure what it's called but I like it. You have a card taped to your forehead and based on clues you guess what you are" said Myke through his laughter.
"Sorry to cut into your fun but duty calls, we just got our next assignment. Grab your gear and meet me at the ship in 10 minutes. We are taking off. " Pixie ordered.
Muttering under his breath she could hear Myke complaining when she switched off her comm unit. Myke always started a new mission with complaints so she was used to it by now. He would be over it by the time he got to the ship. They had been partners for a lot of years and Pixie was very familiar with his banter but there wasn't anyone else she trusted more than him out in space.
When she first met Muke she had her doubts. He was a cocky fellow with a quick wit and he knew how to use it. He was 26 and fresh out of the academy. He was Tall with dark hair and blue eyes that never missed a thing. He also had this big sulky cat named Tommy who accompanied them on all their trips. Together they had explored many known and a few unknown planets. Some had been hostile but for the most part they had encountered many wonderful and varied cultures.
The trip to the Omega system took 5 years however it seemed like only a couple of days for the intrepid travelers who had recently been awakened from deep sleep by the on board computer. The trip had been routine until now. Lights started flashing accompanied by a cacophony of bells and alarms. Tommy was screeching and growling and contributing to the loud din. Pixie started barking orders to Myke, and kicked out at Tommy trying to get him to shut up. Being a spry old thing he dodged her kick and ran back with Myke. Pixie didnt have anymore time to think of the darn cat. The flight stabilizer had gone awry along with the auto pilot. Pixie took manual controls of the craft while Myke rushed around trying to fix it but to no avail. The ship was going down and going down fast. Pixie checked the monitor and saw a small asteroid in range. She hoped she would be able to maintain control of the ship long enough to be able to set her down but she was coming in hard and knew it. She yelled to Myke to strap in and prepare for a crash landing. The craft entered the thin atmosphere spinning. "We're going way to fast" shouted Pixie. She pulled on the controls hard. The spinning stopped and the ship leveled out just in time. Instead of plowing nose first it careened off a small hill and plowed through strange yellow trees and purple bushes coming to a stop in a field of yellow poppies that spelled out Welcome?! Where were they? How far off course had they come? In all the excitement Pixie did not have time to send a maday call, would anyone find them? These questions flashed through Pixie's mind in an instant then she began to react shutting down the systems and trying to make sense of what just happened. She thought of her trusted companion she hadn't heard anything from his direction. Releasing her restraining straps she jumped up and moved quickly to the rear of the craft where Myke had gone. She stopped short when she saw him. He was standing looking out the porthole with the funniest look on his face.
Without even looking in her direction he pointed out the window "do you see this or did I hit my head harder than I thought?"
"If it was your head you hit you're fine. Nobody has harder head than you" Pixie told him as she moved to the window to see what he was looking at. "I don't believe it! I didn't hit my head" she exclaimed. Rubbing her eyes she looked again sure enough they were still there. Outside the ship were cute little bots bustling about only pausing for a moment to glance at the smoking scrap heap that had fallen into RoPhFi's garden before continuing on with their task.
"Do you think they're friendly?" Myke whispered.
"I dunno" Pixie answered "but we are about to find out. "Grab your ray gun, put it on stun only. We certainly don't want to start another galactic incident like last time before we know exactly what's going on".
Myke whined "Aww cap'n "It was an accident. I told you that already. I didn't mean to shoot the president on planet..."
Pixie cut him off before he could finish his sentence. "We are not arguing about this again. Just be glad we didn't get stripped of rank and lose our ship. Let's go."
Cautiously they opened the door, slowly sliding it open as not to attract any attention from the little bots outside. "Well now I was wondering if there were any survivors" said the stranger. "I've been waiting for you to come out. RoPhFi asked me to come by when she realized you were going to be landing on her asteroid." "I do say though you could have picked a better place to land than in the middle of her garden. She spent quite a while getting the flowers placed just so. Well nevermind that now, tell me please who you are and why have you come here?"
Shocked and amazed Pixie stammered "We developed problems on board our ship and was forced to do an emergency landing and this was the closet place to set down. Sorry about the garden."
Standing in front of Myke and Pixie was this non-descript fellow except for the shock of green hair sitting on top of his bald head. "Must be a fashion statement on this rock" thought Myke " but I'm not about to go there." Tommy on the other hand took a liking to this stranger immediately rubbing up against the strangers legs. Tommy has always been a suck up but this was a bit much. Myke was gonna have to have a long talk with that cat!
Pixie asked "Who are you and where are we."
"Oh where are my manners?" Said the stranger. His voice was quiet and soothing. "My name is Fletch. Welcome to our little asteroid belt. You have landed on RoPhFi's asteroid."
And for the first time the two travelers noticed this short little lady hiding behind Fletch. She was anxious with a tentative smile, not really certain about the whole incident. But she bravely stepped out from behind Fletch and squeaked "Yes, welcome".
By now some of the little bots had stopped by Fletch and were awaiting instructions. Fletch said "I must go but I have called my assistant to help you with your needs and to make you comfortable during your stay with us. Pami will answer all your questions." With that Fletch entered his astro ship with Tommy right on his heels and was gone before the duo could respond.
"Come with me." Said RoPhFi as she led the weary travelers inside the repair station. "You can wait for Pami here, you must be tired. I'll go see what I can arrange for you. " And left the room.
"I need a drink" whispered Myke to Pixie "I still can't believe this is happening. Are you sure we aren't having some kind of shared dream in cryo?" Pixie pinched him hard on the arm. "Ow" bellered Myke. "Why do you always have to pinch me there?"
"Well your not dreaming" smiled Pixie. She enjoyed getting Myke like that.
All noise stopped as this tall stunning woman in a flowing dress long enough to sweep the floor as she entered the room. Myke's jaw dropped open. Pixie reached over and pushed his jaw shut saying "You don't want to be catching flying insects would you. " Pixie laughed as she extended her hand in greeting to the newcomer. "I'm Pixie and this fellow is my partner Myke".
The woman smiled brightly as she took Pixie's hand and held it in hers. "My name is Pami and it is so good to see you. We don't get many visitors out this far in space. You must have a million questions for me but first let us get comfortable so we can talk." Pami made some strange beeping and whirring noise to the little bots standing nearby. "These are repair bots, I have asked them to bring us refreshments." The tiny bots disappeared and when they reappeared a minute later they were carrying trays of fruit and vegetables and a pitcher of green elixir.
Myke eyeing the pitcher said, "Are we suppose to drink that stuff?"
Pami turned to look at what Myke was talking about. She giggled a tinkling sound "Yes Myke you will love it. Liquid C0urage developed this drink for us. It's quite refreshing trust me."
"The last time I heard those words" said Myke "was from lost girl and you remember what happened to me then Pix? I'm sure lostgirl is still chortling about that."
As the bots were serving the trio the revitalizing refreshments. Pami said "let me start from the beginning. Which is always the best place to start in a story".
Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale. A tale of a faithful trip. That started from a desolate port on a tiny ship. The mate was a mighty sailing man the skipper brave and sure. Fifty passengers set sail that day for a I hour tour. A one hour tour. The milkyway started getting rough. The tiny ship was tossed. If not for the courage of the fearless crew the minnow would be lost the minnow would be lost. The ship set down on the shore of this uncharted astro belt. So this is the tale of the castaways, they'll be here for a long long time."
"Oh sorry". Pami said smiling sheepishly. "Just a little diddy I've been working on in my spare time."
"Actually we are from the planet hyberias in the Degoba system. The planet was failing due to polution and well...I don't need to go into all that now. Suffice it to say we left in search of a new place to live. Like you we developed a malfunction and came out of deep sleep landing on the asteroid 3 rocks over. Fletch was the leader of the expedition he is very intelligent and talented in ways we are still finding out about. An amazing man."
Pami went on to tell of how they had savaged their ship for all useful parts. "The land was fertile so we built nature habitats. Some parts of the land were found to be rich in minerals and ore and mine habitats were built". They had everything they needed to start building a life there where they landed , seemed perfect for the small colony.
"After the necessary habitats and shelters were built" Pami continued. "Fletch and his talent with his hands and inventions along with Darian who had a vast knowledge of robotics got together tinkering with ship parts they developed what they called a breeding lab. From this incredible device different elements and materials were combined in the breeding lab creating these little bots. We have bots to do labor like the builder bots and mining bots. Then there are bots providing entertainment, the performing and beat bots. The repair bots keep everything working. They are handy little things and very helpful. All we have to do is make sure they are fed enough gears, bolts, batteries and cooling fluid. In so doing we keep them happy and they do all the heavy labor for us". Pami smiled again saying " it's a great symbiotic relationship."
"As the colony grew and spread one astroid became to small for us even though we expanded it as much as we could. So we started spreading out and establishing other asteroids. The older asteroids have science habitats and bots. then some have managed to breed astro ships. We have become quite content here with our new lives. In fact Bliss, Vivaine, Roxorz, and Maidy are planning an asteroid party. We all get together and eat great food and enjoy one another's company. It's in 3 days you must stay and join us, Pulezzze"
Pixie laughed out loud at Pami's exuberance. Never before in all her travels had she met a friendlier and more accepting people. "Pami we aren't going to be leaving for quite some time. It will take several months getting the ship ready to fly again".
This time it was Pami's turn to laugh and her laugh sounded like tinkling of wind chimes. Pixie thought it was a glorious sound. She knew even before the sideways glance she gave Myke, he would be sitting there with his jaw dropped open again.
Pami laughed again and said "your ship is already fixed. I told you our little bots were handy to have around!"
I sit here struggling with these words to get them down on paper so all can know the story. This story has been handed down through the ages lest not anyone forget why life on these asteroids came to be and the same mistakes are not made that forced our forefathers into space searching for a new life.
The end or is it?!
And what of Pixie and Myke? That's another story.
