Jesse~
I ran so fast. I could hear people calling after me, but I didn't listen. Suddenly, I hear a crash and some screams. I turn around, and gasp. A cyborg is pulling some streetlights out of the ground, and is now threatening them. I run to her, yelling.
"Stop stop! It's cruel! Don't do it!" I feel the words come out of my mouth. I don't even know why I'm doing this. She looked at me.
"Why? You should know how it feels like to be jeered at!"
"Yeah, but killing people isn't going to solve anything!" I reason, wincing as she almost drops one of the street lights on the people. She sighs.
"Sorry. But I know what I'm doing." She gives me a glance, and then crashes the streetlights onto the people.
I jump for one of the streetlights, not knowing what I was doing. And before i knew it, I was carrying it. Carrying it with my robotic left arm. I don't even know how I'm doing it.
"Stop it!" The cyborg screeches. I shake my head and groan under the weight of the streetlight. The people make a run for it and escape with their life.
"Thanks, cyborg. nice work," she grumbles.

WHAT? Danie, my charrie is not evil!

So, looks like everyone else is getting together, forming an alliance. You guys are probably going to be the ones who make peace in the end. Should Ishi and Kija get in on this, or maybe join later and for now just witness the chaos? Plot ideas?
-
Someone could somehow get a glance at the future and it was filled with robots, no humans. They have to figure out a way to stop this from happening. While they do this they find the Timekeeper, who has the history of robots and humans. Something went wrong in the past with Jesse, and the hero people have to find Jesse and change the problem in the present. That solved, the have a war to deal with…
Just random ideas. You might be able to find the next part of the plot in my twisted tangle of words! 🙂
-
So… magic, or tech? Yes, or no? Guys?
-
If you want to use pieces of my idea, why not both?
In the end, can Jesse make up with her family?
Also, I am not joining this RP, I'm just bored so I'm posting stuff!
Hmmm, I thought the timekeeper could be robot; he/she doesn't have to be magic, just a historian or something.
I enjoy reading this! Someone should write it all down and use it for a story!

Sorry, Danie, but I'm ignoring your comment because I'm not evil.
-
She wasn't mean, just emotional.
-
Sorry, but it's my charrie.
Nenya suddenly saw the cyborg and calmed down.
"Stop!" she said. "Someone might get hurt!"
"Sorry," Nenya said, "I was just an-"
"Yeah, me too. I'm mad as hades."
Nenya smiled.

Jesse~
She smiles, but I don't smile back. You can't really trust a person who almost killed a bunch of people.
"What's your name? How did you become a cyborg?" the cyborg asks. I frown.
"I don't think I need to tell you that." I reply. She looks at me in surprise.
"But… It's just a question."
"I still can't trust you that well." I say, looking down. She sighs.
"Look, you aren't safe."
"Why not?"
"Can't you tell? You're a cyborg! if someone finds you, they can mess with your robotic side! They can change so much…" She trails off, probably thinking of something. I look at her again.
"Fine. My name is Jesse. And my parents drove me to their lab where they work, and changed me." I shake my head in shame. She looks at me kindly.
"It's okay. you'll get over it."
-
"No I won't!" she screamed back.
A lamppost pulled out of the ground and hurled next to the other lampposts.
"What did I….." Jesse looked at her hands.
"It's your telekinesis. All cyborgs have it. I wasn't trying to hurt them, though!"
"What?" said Jesse. He saw that four people were trapped under a lamppost cage. Suddenly, a dillapidated building collapsed on top of it. The people screamed, but the cage proected them.
"I told you I know what I was doing," Nenya said.
"How did you know that would-"
"I calculated the odds of it falling. They were high."
Jesse looked down at her feet, embarrassed.
Sudenly the lamppost Jesse had thrown peeled away and fell, slamming into two people.
"Careful, Jesse!" gasped Nenya.
"Sorry, I-"
A man ran towards them, shouting.

Ishi~
Ishi snapped on the next morning and immediately rushed to a hologram to figure out what was going on. City in Chaos, read the line of text that raced around the sphere. At yesterday's antipredjudicist convention, one extremist stirred up a mob that is attacking robots on the grounds that robots deserve no more rights and that humans are superior. Robots are advised to stay in their homes/workplaces, for the mob is out of control and attacks upon no justification. Both the provoker of the mob and the presenter and his presented "cyborg" at the convention are being searched for for provoking an attack.
Ishi was the only one awake in the library at the moment, for it was about 5:30 A.M. and still dark. Still, at the windows, she could see a crowd gathered. She had to contact Kija — but she couldn't face that mob and go out, and she couldn't face herself or Kija and call her up on the tabcomputer. Rubbing her fingers together uneasily, Ishi sneaked into the security and familiarity of her desk.

Ishi~
She didn't open the library. One part of her, the good part, said, If I let in that mob, the library will no longer be a safe haven. For some crazy reason, she felt that at this point, the city needed a safe haven — for robots, for… cyborgs. No one deserved to have to run from anyone just because of who they were. If anyone needed help, they could learn that the library was closed from the mob.
Ishi sent out a small notice on the robot-only netboards: The City Library is closed. If you are in need of refuge, we can hide you as a librarian. Send messages to Librarian I-51.
Ishi logged out of her tabcomputer and went back upstairs to check out some of the empty librarian rooms. The human librarians didn't stay overnight much — there weren't any now, which meant a lot of empty rooms. Ishi set to work plugging in spare charging stations and moving furniture to make more space.
*guys, you can come to the library and meet ishi!*

Jesse~
We race back to the city, not looking back at the man. I don't even know where my parents are. But seriously, I don't care. The cyborg smiles at me.
"I'm not sure if I told you this, but my name's Nenya." I nod, smiling back. I could hear the man yelling at us still. I glance back, watching as he slowly but surely was just a dot in the distance. I face forward again, and hear something beep in Nenya's phone. She slows down and lifts it up.
The city library is closed. If you are in need of refuge, we can hide you as a librarian. Send messages to Librarian I-51.
"You're connected to the robot's netboards?"
"Yes. I'm connected both to the robot's and human's." She looks at the message again.
"We should go there! Maybe they may accept us." Nenya says, coming closer to the library.
"I guess. We could try." I sigh, watching her type into the phone. She sends it to the robot, and puts the phone back into her pocket.
After a few minutes, a robot greets us at the entrance.
"Hello. You must be the cyborgs, correct?" she asks, watching us.
"Yes. Can we come in?" Neyna rustles with her hair.

Ishi~
"Hurry, hurry," Ishi told the two cyborgs. Neither was the one who had been seen at the convention — one was maybe her age, with blonde hair, and the other looked maybe two years older, taller and with short brown hair. Letting the two in, she quickly closed and locked the library's back door behind them. "Come upstairs, and I'll get you your stuff."
The two followed her up the stairs to the mezzanie, then behind the shelves and through the door to the librarians' main area. Ishi picked up one of the chairs there and brought it with her into one of the larger librarian's rooms.
The room had a charging station, a bunk bed with some thin sheets and a flat pillow, a desk with one chair — now two — and a tabcomputer lying on the desk. "You two can sleep together in here. It'll be easier to disguise you as humans than as robots, so just wear long sleeves and gloves. And preferably you–" she nodded at the tall brunette — "should work in here on shelving so that people won't see your face.
"Okay," Ishi changed the subject, "I'm sheltering you, so you have to explain. Sit down."
Ishi sat on one of the wide, flat rungs of the bunk bed. The two cyborgs sat on the two chairs. "So," Ishi continued, "who are you, what are you, and how can I help?"
-
To correct you, Jesse is the one with the robotic face. She has brown hair and is very short.
-
She did mean you. I'm average height and blonde, remember?
Nenya sighed. "I'm Nenya. This is Jesse."
Nenya then turned to the window. "I used to live right out there, but I told my mom and dad to move to the next city over and that I would be back when I got skin grafting."
Suddenly she stopped. "Someone's watching from the street."
-
Oops. I forgot brunette means brown hair. My mistake!
-
Yeah. You said Jesse is older, like 16, so I was assuming she'd be taller.

Ooh! Can I join?
Name: Rodric Smith
Age: ?
Human, is an anti- robot extremist
Appearance: Blue eyes, blond hair, a few freckles.
Personality: Quiet, bumbling, works at the library and is secretly planning to deactivate Ishi. Falls head over heels for Nenya and then has an internal conflict.
————-
Rodric ran down the hall, into the spare room. He saw Ishi, a girl (who hid one side of her face when he opened the door) and another girl.
A princess.
No, a queen.
He felt his throat dry up and he gurgled a bit before gasping out, "Miz- Miz Ishi, who are they?"
Ugh. He sounded awful.
The gorgeous girl turned to him. She had dirt on her face, but he thought she almost looked prettier with it.
Don't be so juvenile, Rodric. You haven't even met her.
She smiled at him, and he muttered, "Sorry," before running clumsily away.

Hi Rex! Nice to meet you, don't think I've seen you on CB before! Welcome to the RP!
-
Hi, Rex! Welcome to the CB!

@Air
That's really great! I'll try to make a character too~~

Ishi~
Ishi froze. "Watching?"
Nenya made a tiny nod. She mouthed, Look out the window.
Ishi reached over to the tabcomputer on the desk and quickly pressed the room-control button. Dark shades came sliding down the windows to the outside and to the main librarian area, and the small ceiling light came on. The door clicked, locking once and again to check.
Nenya moved easily once again.
"What do you think that was?" asked Ishi.
"Probably one of the mob. I don't think they recognized us though — Jesse's in the dark so you can't see her face, and my robotic side was the side away from the window."
"Still, you'll have to be careful here. The library was designed as a haven, so there are lots of security features in here, like the ones I just activated, but we have to be careful both from the librarians and the mob.
"Now," continued Ishi, changing the subject again, "There are librarian uniforms in the closet. I want you both close to me, so you'll work in the current events section. Can you program holograms?"
Nenya nodded, but Jesse bit her lip. "I've never actually… worked. I know I'm older than both of you, but my parents have sent me to school all these years, and I've never had like a summer job."
"That's fine, I'll teach you to shelve books," replied Ishi. "Okay, I'll leave you both to settle in for a while. Meet me on the bottom floor when you're ready. The current events desk is in the back behind the stairs."
-
Nenya peeked out the window one last time and clapped a hand over her mouth. "Turn the lights off," she whispered.
The man was pacing outside, holding a raygun.
-
Ishi~
Quick as a flash, she slammed her hand on the switch.
"Closet. Both of you." She herded them into the closet. "And quiet!"
Nenya and Jesse followed quickly. Ishi locked the door behind them.
"What are we going to do?"
-
Ooh, exciting!
Can an that be Kija's long lot brother?
Never mind that would be weird.

Suddenly…
Jesse's phone rings!!!! You try to muffle it but it is too late…
wahaahhhaa
Seriously, you left me at a cliffhanger!!! What happens? Do aliens come from Mars? Does the closet explode? Does a cute puppy bark? Does Jesse's phone ring??!!!
Wait a minute. Can I join so I can call Jesse and be like all oops, wrong number, as the man with the gun busts the closet?
-
Oops meant raygun.
