Chapter 68: Fembot Control!!



“This is getting a little too close to comfort.” Max thought. He was right in between Jenny and Sophie, who were clinging onto his arms. “So,” he asked. “are you girls ready to talk it out?” “I will,” Sophie replied. “if Jenny goes first.”

“Actually,” Jenny added. “since Sophie came here in my house, she should go first.” “No, I insist that you go first,” Sophie said, a vein throbbing on her forehead. “since you were the one who ruined my date.” “Who want to repeat that?!” Jenny hissed through gritted teeth.

“Girls,” Mikey spoke up. “we’re trying to focus here.” He and John were playing Snakes and Ladders. “You two have been clinging onto Max for almost an hour.” he added. “Can’t the both of you just talk it out already?”

“Besides, I don’t think Max is feeling comfortable in the position he’s in.” He pointed to Max, whose face was bright red from Jenny and Sophie being so close to him. “Just swallow your pride for once and apologise.”

“Just give it up.” David replied. “Those girls are as stubborn as mules.” “I doubt they’ll ever apologize.” He added, taking a gulp from his orange juice. “Who’re you calling stubborn!?” The two girls explained, much to Max’s exasperation.

“KNOCK! KNOCK!!” The friends looked at the door. “That’s strange,” Jenny spoke. “My mom’s not supposed to be back in three more hours.” “I’ll check it out.” Max replied, wiggling free from Jenny and Sophie. He walked over to the door and opened it.

To his surprise, there was no one at the door; only four cardboard boxes stacked on top of each other, two were large and rectangular and the other two were small and square. On top of one of the smaller boxes was an envelope.

Confused, he placed the envelope in his pocket, lifted up the boxes; two with one hand and carried them into the house. “Hey, guys!” He called. “Look what I found at the door!!” The others were surprised to see Max with the four boxes.

“Max, where did you get those?” John asked. “They were at the door.” Max replied, placing the boxes down. “There’s a note too.” he added, taking the envelope out from his pocket. “Well, Maxie?” Sophie asked. “What does it say?”

Max opened the envelope and took out the letter inside. His eyes widened at it. “Jenny, it’s from your mom.” He said. That got Jenny’s attention. “That’s not possible.” She replied, walking over and taking the letter from his hands.

The note said “Dear Jenny, I’ve have bought something to help you and Sophie learn to get along. I’m sorry for not telling you this but I wanted to surprise you. There will be nothing to worry about; I assure you it will be a mind-changing experience for the both of you. Signed, Mom.”

“I don’t understand.” Jenny replied. “How can my mom not tell me about this?” “Well, what’s inside?” Mikey asked as he approached one of the boxes. “Let’s open them already.” “I’ll handle that.” Max replied as claws appeared from his fingers and gently sliced opened the tapes on the boxes.

He opened the big boxes first; when they looked inside, both revealed a set of clothes that looked almost metallic. “What the heck are those?” John replied. “Why would your mom buy these outfits?” David added, confused. “What kind of clothes are made of metal?”

“I don’t know.” Jenny added. “Maybe for a future costume for Halloween?” “Well, I for one,” Sophie added, taking the clothes from one of the boxes. “am not going waste new clothes like these.” “Fine,” Jenny replied. “You boys won’t mind waiting for a moment while we change.”

“Fine by us.” John replied, as the two girls hurried upstairs to change. “Why kind of clothes are those?” Max asked. “I’ve never seen metal clothes before.” Mikey shrugged. “Beats me.” He replied. “Fashion’s not my cup of tea.”



(10 mins later...)

“How long does it take to change?” David asked impatiently. “Calm down.” Mikey replied. “I’m sure they be finished.” The boys were still waiting in the living room. Max was staring at the strange note that came with the boxes. What did Amy mean by “mind-changing” experience?

While they were waiting, Max had opened the two smaller boxes. Each of them contained a headset with a black antenna on the right earpiece. There were also clear visors connecting the two pieces apart from the top part and a black button on the right side of the headset. This left Max even more confused.

“Hello, boys!!” The boys looked upstairs and they saw astounded them. Sophie was dressed in a metallic white dress, with a magenta knee-length skirt held in an umbrella-shape around her waist and magenta sections going through her elbow to her wrists and shoulder blades.

She wore a red choker around her neck and red knee-length high boots with two-inch heels and antenna on the outer sides. Sophie made her way down the stairs and stuck a sexy pose to the boys. “Well, boys?” She asked. “What do you think?”

The boys stared wide-eyed and speechless. “You look like a robot.” Mikey spoke up. “A very hot and sexy robot.” John added. Sophie grinned and turned to Max with a sly smile. Suddenly she stiffened up; her arms positioned themselves forward below her elbows and started to move stiffly towards Max in a mechanical motion, stopping right in front of him.

“Greeting, Master.” She spoke in a robotic tone of voice. “I am Sophie Fembot; I am programmed to obey and serve you.” Max turned bright red at that statement. “W-w-what are you doing, Sophie?” He stammered.

Sophie’s mouth twitched a little at the edges, fighting back a smile and she leaned in close to Max’s face. “You are my master, Max Yamato.” She replied, cocking her head, rigid-like. “I am your fembot, programmed to obey and serve you.” “What is your command, Master?” She added, her breath close to his ear.

Poor Max turned so red that it looked as if his face would explode. The other boys couldn’t help but laugh at Max’s perdicament. “Well, Max.” David spoke up, smirking. “She’s waiting for your answer~~~” “M-me?” Max asked. “Why can’t one of you do it?” “She’s your fembot.” John replied. “You’re her master; so she only obeys you.”

Sophie started to giggle. “Oh, I’m just kidding, Maxie!!” She replied. “I just wanted to see the look on your face!” “Still,” she added, smiling seductively. “you rather enjoyed it, didn’t you?” “I mean, having a beautiful fembot to obey your every order.” she continued, stroking his face. “Don’t worry, Maxie; I can be your fembot any time you want~~~” Max blushed once again.

“Excuse me.” A voice said. Everyone turned to see Jenny, also dressed in the same outfit as Sophie, except hers’ was blue. “How do I look?” she asked, shyly. “You look great, Jenny!!” John replied. “Who would have thought you make a good fembot?” Jenny blushed and turned to Max.

“Do you like it, Max?” She added, smiling shyly. Max blushed, practically for the fourth time and scratched his cheek, “You look cute when you’re dressed like that.” Jenny’s cheeks blushed brighter and smiled widely, much to Sophie’s annoyance.

“Oh,” Mikey added, showing them the two headsets. “These were in the two smaller boxes.” The girls studied the headsets, fascinated. “Cool!” Sophie squealed, placing the red headset on; resting the two earpieces on the side of her head and adjusting the visor to fill her vision. “This will make a perfect Halloween costume!”

Jenny placed the blue headset on. “I feel like Jane Jetson.” she joked, causing the boys to chuckle. “Well, you girls make cute robots, you know that” Max pointed out, making the girls blush. “Thanks, Maxie!” Sophie squealed with joy while Jenny smiled at him.

“Well, try turning them on.” John told them. “There’s a button on the right side.” The girls pressed on the button and instantly, there was a low hum and the earpieces began to glow. “Sweet!” Jenny grinned.

“How does it feel?” Max asked. “Strange.” Sophie replied. “Yet, kind of relaxing.” “Hey, Max.” Jenny spoke up, smirking. “Check it out.” She started to move rigidly and mechanical-like. “I am a fembot.” She spoke in a robot-like tone. “I am here to serve my master, Max Yamato.”

The boys laughed at Jenny’s antics and even Sophie had to smile when she saw it. “That was great, Jenny!” John laughed, clapping his hands. “You and Sophie make good actresses!” Jenny laughed and curtised. “Thanks!” She replied.

“Well, I think I should change back.” Jenny spoke up. “Really, so soon?” David asked. “Yeah,” Jenny replied, giggling. “I don’t want my mom to think I’ve got turned into a robot.” She reached to take the headset off. Just as her hands touched the earpieces, there was something wrong.

Jenny’s expression soon turned to confusion and worry as she tried to remove it. She tugged and pulled but the headset remained fast on her head. “Uh, Jenny?” Max asked, concerned. “Is everything okay? “Uh, guys...” Jenny replied, nervously. “I can’t take it off.”

“What are you talking about?” John asked, incredulously. “Just take it off, how hard can it...” “Guys, I can’t!” Jenny exclaimed. “It’s stuck; it won’t come off!!” This roused the others. “Wait, what do you mean it’s stuck?!” Mikey asked, shocked.

“I don’t know!!” Jenny replied, now scared. “It’s like it’s glued to my ears!!” She tugged and pulled harder, but no matter how much force she used, the headset refused to move an inch. “Here, let me.” Max offered, as he reached for the earpieces to try to pull them off. To his shock, the headset refused to budge.

“Guys, she’s right!” Max exclaimed. “The headset is stuck!” Now, everyone was getting worried. “How is that possible?!” David asked. “I don’t know!!” Jenny replied. “The note never said anything about this!!”

Sophie watched with wide eyes and a pale face. Immediately, she tried to pull her headset off too, but to her horror, hers’ was also stuck fast to her head. “Guys!” She cried. “Mine is stuck too!!”

“Okay!!” John explained. “Is this someone’s idea of a joke?!” “Because if this is, it’s not funny!!” He added. The two girls pulled and yanked on their headsets, but it was no use. “Mikey, do something!!” Max exclaimed.

“What am I supposed to do?!” Mikey added. “You’re the tech genius!!” John replied. “Try to hack into them or something!!!” “BEEP!! BEEP!!” Suddenly, the antenna on the headsets started to make a beeping sound. “Now what?!” David demanded.

All of sudden, the girls screamed and clutched the earpieces. “Girls!!” Max exclaimed in alarm. “What’s wrong?!” “The noise!!” Jenny screamed, her eyes closed tightly and her teeth gritted. “It’s unbearable!!” “What noise?!” John added. “We don’t hear anything!” “Maxie, help!!” Sophie wailed, tears forming in her eyes. “It hurts, make it stop!!!”

“Jenny!!!” Max called to the girls. “Sophie!!” “You have to fight it!!!” He added. “Whatever happening to the both of you, you must fight it!!” “I-I-I can’t M-m-ax..” Jenny stuttered like a broken radio. “I-I-It's too str-str-ong...” “M-m-maxie....” Sophie whimpered, her tears cascading like waterfalls. “P-p-please, h-h-help...”

Suddenly, the two girls stiffened and their arms straightened at their sides. The antenna stopped beeping and their visors began to glow brightly. The boys stepped back warily. “Girls?” Max asked nervously. “You okay?” “Jenny?” “Sophie?”

“Your friends are gone.” The two girls spoke in unison, their voices were devoid of emotion. “We are the Unity Sisters.” This terrified the boys even more. “W-what is happening?” John pleaded.

“Under order of Mc.Hannibal, Wild Guardian,” the two girls spoke again. “you must be eliminated.” “Mc.Hannibal!?” The boys exclaimed in shock, horror and rage. “There will be no resistance, Wild Guardian.” The two girls added. “You must be eliminated.” Max could only stare in horror. “No, this can’t be...”
