New Picture for the Diamond Dust Competiton at Sims Unbound
Story Description:
"She's a robot, Kappa. She is cold, lifeless metal!"
He had heard the same
thing from almost everyone on board the ship.
"She isn't human, and she never
will be," they had told him, but they didn't understand.
Nova was human. Or
atleast more human than any of them. She understood him, she understood the
world. She was more real than anyone else on the ship; But at the same time,
they were right. She was made of metal, and the citizens aboard the ship weren't
afraid to voice their opinions of the matter.
"What happened?" Kappa
exclaimed at the sight of his forbidden love slumped on the floor.
"They do
not like us together, Kappa." She said quietly with no infliction in her voice
that gave any inclination of a thought that she was anything but human. The only
give-away of her robotic origins was in the pieces of metal sticking out of her
fake skin.
"Who did this?" He said, rushing over to her. "Who?"
"Does it
matter?" She questioned. "I feel no pain." Kappa winced. He knew that she
couldn't possibly feel it, but he sometimes forgot she wasn't human.
"Still.
I don't want people hurting you, Nova."
"It's okay." She said, staring at
her feet.
Kappa knelt down and sat beside her. "It's not okay." He mumbled as
he embraced her.
"It is though. I am not human. They have proven their
point."
"What point?" He said, angry at the people who hurt her.
"They
made you finally see what I really am. They thought that you would leave because
of it. That you might get some sense and find a human girl."
"Never." He
whispered. "Never."
Nova couldn't look at him. She felt like if she did
she would break apart. The emotions she had been feeling since meeting this
human boy had confused her. She was metal parts with a human facade. They were
born, she was made. They had beating hearts, she had metal parts. Humans knew
emotion, and somehow she was feeling it too.
"I shouldn't love you." She
said.
"But you do." He teased. "And I love you."
A small tear rolled
down her cheek
