Life is different. Very different. Since Ptolmeys VIII invented the pollution free, automatic drive, car the world has evolved. You used to drive by your self and eat, sleep,and do everything in a house by your self but in this time,in !""#$%&'(, well to give you an idea of London I will describe my window view. )oads reach into the city li*e the arms of greedy *ids in a sweet shop and cars li*e little ants crawling down them. +urther in is the ,.-.. the big brain of the world,let me e/plain,the world is controlled by a computer, not humans but cars and trains and stuff ,and everyone lives in a pollution free , automatic drive car. 0b1ects are traded by materialiser which is bluetooth connected, but it was going a bit funny . 2ars had been crashing a lot, the statistics for crashes are two per year however, now it was two per month. .ut people don3t notice, so I decided to find out for myself I3ll stop the story for a minute to e/plain. ,i I3m 4om, 4om 5al*er .I3m ' and I live the only flat in the world and find that really sad. I3m e/ceedingly good at chess. I3m also good at interrogation, snooping around and as*ing 6uestions so I suppose you can call me a detective but now bac* to the story. 4he only posable suspect was Ptolmey VIII so I paid him a visit. Ptolmey3s car was a grand limousine with floors and a on7suit 8acu99i. I was envious when I saw it from the ta/i but when I holographed in to see if I could come in, the car ran away :6uic*, follow it;< I bellowed Sorry< the ta/i driver said calmly : the ,.-.. only allows one speed.< so I *noc*ed out the driver with a well 1udged punch and

I fiddled with the electrics until I saw a big button labelled 3emergency drive mode3. I pressed it 6uic*ly. A huge wheel popped out of the dash board. I grabbed it, pushed the pedals that had grown under my feet and sped after the car= it was fast but I was faster. " fast and furious minutes later Ptolmey3s car went off the road onto the one below it and i saw where we were heading, towards the ,.-.., but first we had to get there which was hard since we were facing traffic and it was flowing fast. It was 6uite hard. 5e, after an hour of car dodging, arrived at the ,.-.. and Ptolmey3s car rolled. It is 6uite impressive to see > ,!!!,!!! worth of two floor limousine with on built 8acu99i rolling over " times to eventually smash into a wall ,you should try it some time. I ran to the flaming wrec* and opened the front door. ?mpty. Ptolmey hadn3t led me to the ,.-.., the ,.-.. had lead me to itself. A maniacal voice cried from behind the machine : you will never destroy my plans.< A demented man with a beard came from behind the machinery. :5ho are you@< I as*ed, appalled at the man3s appearance :I3m 5illiam )iches and I reprogrammed the ,.-... :.ut why me@< I said :.ecause you are the only one who could be bothered to find out, my plan for world chaos could have been ruined, but now you must die;< 5ith that he launched himself at me. ,e flew. I duc*ed. ,e crashed. Straight into the burning car. Li*e most evil people he only managed five minutes of world domination. And as for meA I had a long wal* bac*. Baybe life isn3t that different. 4,? ?CD
