| Teddy Bear Robot | ||
| A special toy bear given to every child in the world. |
Every child in the world recieved their own teddy bear to take care of them. And to teach them.
| "Let me go... let me go!" the teddy bear said with a hopeless shrill. "...This is only a machine." with a quick slash, he opened the fabric over the seam seal and touched it: the plastic-fur back gaped open like a mouth. ...There was a click and the toy went limp. |
