o.k so progressing on from the last story that we did as a group we were split up and told that we could, if we wanted use that as a base to our own short story which we will then animate. I did like the general incept of the last story so i chose not to diverge too far away from it and it has gone through a couple of refinements already in the short space of time I have been writing it. Initially up to a few days ago I had humans as the main characters to this story but now I have upgraded them to robot who pretty much act the same way as humans. in fact the story is almost exactly the same but I have added in a bit more 'robot stuff' so what I am about to write started out with humans as the main characters but now its robots.
so heres the general idea of the story:
( but the way the robots are programmed so that when they fall in love a plate on their chest flashes a red heart)
M.A.R.K is a taxi driver bot and after along period of time he has began to hate his job and now trudges around with no real purpose. Continuing on his normal route one day he comes across a female robot, S.A.L.L.Y. Instantly he is taken aback by her surprise interest in him and they begin to talk and bond the whole trip (which conveniently hits a lot of traffic along the way) and evidently there is something between them. however they reach the end of the journey, S.A.L.L.Y gets out and M.A.R.K is left alone for a few minutes when all of a sudden his chest plate begins to flash a little red heart. At first he is confused but he then realises what it means. instantly he springs out of the taxi and begins to run after her. bumping and pushing his way through the streets he finally spots her across the road and runs out without looking and is hit by a car. A few days later he is awoken in the repair centre to footsteps leaving his room, he looks over and can see some flowers which have just been rustled. thinking it was S.A.L.L.Y he leaps up and out of the room only to discover it was just a doctor. A few weeks later M.A.R.K returns to his job once again with his heart still flashing but not as quick anymore. A few minutes into his shift he approaches the place where he first met S.A.L.L.Y and he can see a small red dot far off in the distance. Not thinking much of it he gets closer to the dot. As it nears he can make out more of the figure and as he gets there he can see that the red heart belongs to S.A.L.L.Y who has been waiting in this spot for two weeks waiting for him to come by again. She gets into the cab and they drive off, chatting away like they had never been apart.
I am aware that this probably will change as time goes by but I think this is a good solid starting point.
In short:
A lonely robot taxi driver who has done everything but give up finally meets a woman who takes an interest in him. But it is only after she leaves the taxi does he realise his love for her. Chasing after her to tell her he is hit by a car and seriously injured. He worries that he has lost her forever and returns to his original unhappy state. After giving up all hope of finding her again he is re-united with her out of the blue and he finds out she fell in love with him too.
