The time is cometh
Little robots: the little city. In summary, the little robots find a giant underground city full of little robots like themselves. They decide to move in, most of them settling in a small town known as haybaile
S1 E1 - pilot/the little city part 1
Summary: 5 as he is about to pull the day-night lever, tiny discovers a large, mysterious hole behind the lever. He decides to investigate the next day, and finds something he never imagined was possible.
Narrator: Ah, look at the little robots in their little robot town. See as they enjoy themselves as the day comes to a close. Isn't it adorable how they have their own unique hobbies and things that they do.
Narrator: Look as tiny performs maintenance on the nut and bolt tree as messy rolls around in scrap. We can see sporty trying a new exercise of lifting weights as he runs on his treadmill. Stretchy's is in his junkyard sorting obsessively. Stripey is helping rusty tend to her garden. Noisy is singing her usual 'very noisy' song as spotty tries (and fails) to stop her. Scary is putting on some kind of performance. Sparky 1 is watching as sparky 2 prepares for a prank to mess up this show. How wonderful.
*tiny climbs onto his platform within the tree, now done with the o so important maintenance*
Tiny: There we go. The nut and bolt tree looks good after a good polish and a tightening of its bolts.
*he takes his little elevator down to the ground*
Tiny: Well then, I think it's about time to turn off the day. Now... ello?
*Tiny had noticed something... off. A giant hole behind the day-night lever. It was clearly made by a robot like tiny. After all, if it was messy, it would not only be very messed up around the edges, but bits of floor and dirt would be everywhere. But the question now is, who or what made this hole and why*
*Messy trotted up behind tiny as he looked into the strange hole. It was deep, but there was also a short ramp that reached the bottom. That proved that this was made by another little robot
Tiny: Who do you suppose made this, then Messy? Because it certainly wasn't you. Otherwise, it wouldn't have a clean ramp, ir lead into... a tunnel? Oh ....
* Tiny's mind began to wander, thinking about the possibilities of how this hole came to be and what it meant for the other little robots. After all, it could be dangerous. What if something that wanted to hurt them comes out of this tunnel.
Tiny: Messy, I'm going to pull the lever, and tomorrow, I'm going to investigate this hole. I want you to make sure no one else enters before I get back. OK?
*Messy barks*
Tiny: Perfect. Well, goodnight Messy. I'll see you tomorrow.
* Tiny pulls the lever, once again falling over in the process, but it turns to night none the less. Meanwhile...
* Messy decided to treck through stretchy's yard before going to bed, mostly to find something to cover the hole but also because he knew stretchy wouldn't be going to bed just yet to keep on working. A more recent habit of his
Messy: (sneaking up behind stretchy) RUF! RRRUFF!
Stretchy: AH! OH, Messy, can't you see I'm trying to work? Yes I know it's night but...
Messy: ororuf
Stretchy: uurh, fine, I'll go to bed just go away, would you? *sigh* a bot can't even stay up to work.
* As stretchy rolls up to his house, Messy notices a large metal sheet lying on top of one of stretchy's piles. He decides to take it, as he would use it to cover the hole. And sure enough it was the perfect size so that messy could lie on the sheet to keep it in place
(The next morning)
*Tiny wakes up and immediately takes his elevator down to the ground and flipped the day-night lever, making the sky bright once again. He walks behind the lever just to see messy sleeping behind it where the hole was.
Tiny: messy? Where's.. (messy stands up, barks, and removes the sheet showing the hole. Tiny relaxes at this)
Tiny: Oh I thought I has dremt that hole last night. Alright messy, here's the plan...
*Tiny opens up his head and pulls out a small flashlight
Tiny: I'm going down the hole to investigate. You stay up here to keep the others up here safe. We don't know what's down there and I don't want the others to get hurt because of my own negligence. Understood?
Messy: Rruf ruf (yes, sir)
Tiny: Alright messy, I'll be back as soon as I can, hang tight until then, ok?
Messy: Rrrruf
Tiny: alright, here I go. Wish me luck messy
*taking a large breath, tiny walks down the ramp into the tunnel. Messy waits until he can't see tiny anymore to pull the sheet back over the hole, or should we call this a tunnel.
*Meanwhile, at Sporty's house
*sporty flings himself out of his door, exited to start the day, doing multiple push ups before standing up
Sporty: Well, what to do today. I know, I'll ask rusty if she wants to help me improve my new exercise, treadmill weightlifting. At the very least she could give me a better name. Hup hup
*he runs to rusty's house, where stripey still is, sleeping outside in her garden. Sporty comes to a halt in front of stripey.
Sporty: stripey? What are you doing at rusty's house?
Stripey (groggily): Oh... oh dear. I fell asleep out here, didn't I? I knew i shouldn't have continued that story. Oh, hello sporty, what are you doing at Rusty's house?
Sporty: well, (he bangs on her door, rusty's vioce can be heard yelling 'coming' from inside) I wanted to know if she wanted to help me with a new exercise I was working on.
Stripey: Oh, that sounds fun. Can I help?
Sporty: Of course! The more the merrier, that's what tiny would say.
*rusty opens her door and looks up at sporty, blushing and letting of steam
Rusty: Oh.. hello sporty. What brings you here?
* As sporty explains his exercise, we cut to spotty's House as she rolls outside.
Spotty: Now, I think I'll go and pay stretchy a visit. He'll be so glad to see me, he's obsessed with me. I just know it. Besides, I have a brilliant new idea for a decoration for my house
* Despite her delusions, spotty rolls on over to stretchy's junkyard, passing by noisy as she happily stomps on her plink plonk stairs and the sparky twins sitting by their homes, looking rather upset by something
* Spotty arrives at stretchy's, unfolding behind him and waiting expectedly. As she twidles her thumbs, stretchy continues to work, complaining about the missing sheet and counting the piles he had made. At this point, scary shows up, dramatically walking in an upset limp
Scary: Oh woe. Oh grief. Oh tragedy and despair. Stretchy, I need your help!
*Before stretchy can even say anything, spotty interjects
Spotty: hang on, I was here first. Can't you see I'm wating for his assistance. And I think...
Scary: Are you blind? My cape! It's ruined thanks to those sparkies. I need it fixed. Pronto and stretchy is far more likely to have the materials I need
Spotty: Now listen here
* As the two bots angrily biker, stretchy groans. He needs to get on with his sorting, but these two are just making an unbearable racket. Luckily, he prepared for this the last time Spotty pulled a stunt like this. He reaches into his trolley and pulls out what he calls 'noise mufflers', which he made to completely block out most noise.
*Spotty and scary continue to argue over who stretchy should help first, when
Nois: SPOTTY!!
Spotty: arg!!! (She falls over, tucking into her ball form)
Noisy: OH. SORRY SPOTTY. IT'S JUST YOU WERE YELLING AND SCARY WAS YELLING AND I WANTED TO GET YOUR ATTENTION!
Spotty: Humph. Well, if you could not tell, I was in the middle of...
Noisy: YES, BUT YOUR BOTHERING STRECHY AND BESIDES, I HAVE SOMETHING I WANT TO SHOW YOU THAT I'LL THINK YOU'LL LIKE!!
Sparky #1: besides, me and Sparky #2 want to fix scary's cape as an apology for ruining it with our prank.
Scary: Well, I'll allow that, I suppose. But...
*Sparky #2 suddenly runs up to the group
Sparky #2: Guys, something is up with messy! He's sitting on some sheet of metal, and when I tried to get close, he started to bark aggressively.
Scary: something wrong with messy? Well, this can not wait. Onwards to our canine companions aid
Sparky #2: he's behind the day night lever, follow me
* As the two sparkies and scary run toward the lever, noisy drags spotty of to the wasteland. After a second or two, stretchy turns around and notices he's alone again.
Stretchy: Ah, peace at last
*he takes his mufflers out, as scary and the sparkies reach the day night lever, where messy lies behind it on a large sheet of metal
Sparky #2: See, he's just lying there
*scary aproches messy, who barks causing scary to back up
Scary: Ah, I see what you meant. Messy, co-operate with me for a minute and answer some questions, will you? Bark for yes, be quiet for no. Is there something under the hole (messy barks)
Sparky #1: Well, I can't see tiny in the nut and bolt tree, so messy, is tiny under that sheet? (Messy barks again) Why? Is he stuck? (Messy stays silent)
Sparky #2: hm... Messy, will tiny come back? (Messy barks) Ah, is there something else under there? Like a hole or.. (Messy cuts her off with a bark)
Scary: So tiny has gone into a hole in the ground with plans to return? He must be investigating it!
*Messy barks and stands up, moving the sheet to show the tunnel that led out of their little world.
Sparkies (in unison): a tunnel!
Scary: Oh dear boy, tiny. I hope you're safe within this tunnel. He's looking out for all of us contantly. Messy, I will wait with you to honour Tiny's joyful return
* Scary sits down as Messy returns the sheet to its original position. The sparkies look at each other, shrug, and sit down by the lever as well. They all wait for tiny's return from the tunnel
*Meanwhile, tiny finally emerges from the tunnel. And what does he see? Something he never would have imagined. A city. A giant city full of little robots like himself. The sky is full of clouds that move, and the buildings have lights and soft furniture. And then, over all the chatter and other noises that tiny wants to know the origins of, he hears a voice
???: I've done it, mayor. I've found the sorce of those transmissions. It was a town! With other robots! And ... wait... that's one of them there!!!

So, finally done with this. My goal is every Sunday but that's not concrete. As a bonus though, have a look at the first two characters I made for this series
