"Damnit son, just what in the hell were you making?" Asked the general. "It was a robot...it was supposed to protect us..." He responded. "Well it's doing the exact opposite now isn't it?" The boy was silent. "Alright, head out. We'll deal with this later." Hundreds of men began marching, as people cleared the city, tanks made their way to the machine. From the bottom it looked that much like of a silver car, but from the top it looked like a silver medieval knight, a combination of the two proved to be quite deadly. "Fire on three" The General ordered.

"Stop!" A voice yelled, the voice sounded nothing like a human's, but it was definitely not from the machine. However, as the mysterious warrior ran its fist through the machine's face and sent it flying throughout the city, we found our answer. People began clapping as they walked back outside. However, the figure stood and was less than pleased. To describe this figure would be like describing the darkness, disturbing. The following speech is what changed the world forever. "Cease your clapping" And everyone did. "For I am not your friend, but at the same time I am not your enemy. No, simply think of me as the end. I have watched, from the invention of the wheel to the lightbulb, you humans have advanced in technology for a long time. However, there is a point where all must end, before the sun dies, before the truth of life is revealed. For none of that may happen so long as your race keeps advancing. Answer me this, why, in order to advance technology, must you abandon the natural way of life? This, I will never understand, it is unfortunate it has to be this way. There is no turning back, in ten years, I will have an unstoppable army, an army of billions, all as powerful as I am. Do not fear, do not fight, this is not a command, this is a suggestion, fighting is futile and fearing is only a strong weight to be lifted with will. You have ten years humans, not to prepare, but to live, use them as you wish." He then vanished, leaving wind to flow around him. The entire Earth was silent.
