About 200 years ago, humans invented walking, talking robots. They were joyful at first, and even helpful. As time went on, these robots became more and more intelligent…until one day they turned on humans. Millions of people were injured, and even killed in the attacks, but after years of battles, humans destroyed every robot in the world. The next decade was robotless…until one man got an idea. He thought that instead of humanoid robots, people could model them after animals. That idea was a hit. Scientists worked tirelessly to make this idea come to life. Why? No one really knows, but after 28 years of trial and error…it was born. A smart animal robot. It was a dog named June. After June’s incredible fame, people developed more, and more of these creatures. All other robots were still illegal because of the attacks. Now every rich or famous person had a robotic animal. After that, these robots became available to everyone.
Now, whenever a human is born, they are assigned a robotic animal. They live and die with that robot, and they love that robot. No matter what.
