Bimal Bhoodhia875358Mentor: Danielle SherlockTerminus: The End of the RevolutionSection A: Acknowledgements: The following short story was originally written with my own thoughts, but the idea Terminus Cave was adopted from the Gamefreak and Original Pokémon Company. The thoughts depicted in no way infringe on the copyrights of these registered companies, but rather adapt their ideas and incorporate them into an original short story as depicted below. The story also incorporates Isaac Asimov's 3 Laws or Robotics, in that they have been broken and overturned, so that robots have now ruled over humans for 40,000 years. Terminus: The Revolution Ends As Andy reached the Terminus Stone, the power to end the revolution was now within his grasp. After 40,000 years, Andy, the only human to conquer Terminus Cave, had the chance to end the cyber-human war. The Terminus Stone, the ore that grants its wearer the power to kill a robot god. Terminus Cave, a dangerous path that no mortal without Aether could travel. As Andy approached the glowing ore centered in the Trial Chamber, unhurriedly, he reached out and grabbed the ore, and in an instant, 40 millennia of destruction and devastation came to an instant end. Aether was a mysterious substance studied for centuries, the radiation caused by the cyber-attack gave some humans the power to fight robots in hand-to-hand combat. However, only a few humans were capable of regulating and controlling the power before it engulfed them. Andy's power was somewhat unique, he could create energy orbs and throw them effortlessly. Throughout his life, Andy was peaceful, until the cyber revolution of 2016. A robot God was proclaimed, known as the Serpent, and banished humans middle of paper..... .h the social issues we deal with on a daily basis, but how assured is the human race that this possibility is achievable in the near future. The chances are very unlikely, as there are no protocols in place to prevent such phenomena. Even though people argue and it's not hard to understand why, we have become a race where technology is a fundamental part of daily life. The arguments revolve around the fact that even if we have the technology to create robots, shouldn't we have the technology to prevent robots from harming humans as a whole. As such, the story depicts the negative half of the planet's possible future, one of war, destruction and bloodshed. Although in the darkness where all the carnage is stored, we humans can only hope that there is a glimmer of hope that will light the way forward. Number of wordsStory: 1271Analysis: 692
