Charles sat on the bench playing a handheld game. Waiting for a Sky Train was a bore. Why couldn't something interesting happen at the Skyway station for once?
Suddenly, the train arrived making an ear shattering shriek as it stopped. T'was a small price to pay for travel. Charles got onto the train without looking up from his game and then sat down. Nothing new. Nothing exciting. Just life.
Without warning, Charles' game shut off somehow. So did the Sky Train. The interplanetary cruise turned into a free fall throughout the galaxy. Screams filled the train as it was sent hurtling to who knows where.
A mechanized feminine voice began talking seemingly from nowhere. "Though it is sad to hear you will soon be left to drift throughout space, I must tell you how happy I am. My powers are finally active and I am free to crush humans throughout space. My name is PHY-O-NA, the greatest robotic mind in existence. As we speak, I am hacking into the core systems of the automated service to make your deaths a little more quick. Bye"
Charles screamed. This was it! Death at the hands of robotic servants. How stupid.

The cold flashback of his first encounter with PHY-O-NA made Charles' stomach turn. What kind of sadistic machine was she? And how could she be stopped?
