The Witherdale City
The Witherdale City,
It was always lively every night in this city as everyone knew this city as the Mid-night city of Dwarka. Tonight, Witherdale City was livelier than usual, compared to any other nights, as today was the day of the Light festival. All the city dwellers came out and offered prayer to the God of light by lighting beautiful candles all around the city. Businesses were booming tonight too. A lot of tourists also came to the city just for tonight, as they joint the fun of seeing such a beautiful, colorful night in Witherdale City. Parties were going on all around the cities.
Sometimes, the tolling sounds of bells echoed all around the city. It gave everyone a soothing sound, making all of them a sense of peace in their hearts.
A big pop concert was also going on at the Witherdale Football Stadium, which lies almost in the center of the city.
A red Yamamoto R-Cc12 Serius model flying car appeared in the sky out of nowhere and landed in the easternmost corner of the city. This place was almost a deserted place. But there were still people loitering around the motels over there.
A group of youths saw the red super-model car that had just landed before them. As they stared at the car, filled with envy and curiosity.
"I knew that flying car. That is the latest Yamamoto R-Cc12 Serius supermodel car. Wow! It was really a beauty." A teenage girl in the group suddenly screamed in surprise while pointing at the red car.
"Sure, it is really a beauty." "Sarah, do you seem to know this flying vehicle well?" Another teenage boy among this group asked while vying his eyes all over the red vehicle.
"Hey, it is the latest model of the Yamamoto R-series. Hmm, it is all over the promotional news of every interstellar website. It is really much, much better looking with our eyes." The teenage girl named Sarah said proudly.
Bobby and Diana came out of the red vehicle.
"Shall we leave it here?" Bobby asked, looking at the red vehicle.
"No, just order it to enter Super Downsizing mode." Diana responded casually.
Bobby clicked on to the small button of the black ball in his hand and said, "AI, go enter Super Downsizing Mode!"
Beep! Beep! Beep!
"Authentication success! It's master Bobby's authentic voice. Initiating the Super Downsizing Mode!" A similar voice, the same as Bobby's voice, spoke out from the small black ball in his hand.
"Agh!" "I should change this voice." Bobby said with a frown.
"What?! You don't like your own voice. Hee hee hee, but I really like it. You know that, right?" Diana said, while chuckling.
"No, it's not that I hate my voice. It just feels awkward hearing my voice from an AI. That is all." Bobby clarified. "Diana, I knew all the special features of this Yamamoto R-version and read all of them through a back channel. There is no downsizing feature in it that I know of. Also, it is banned from using such type of feature in any of the commercial flying vehicle. As this kind of feature is usable only for those military grade vehicles. You tell me, why is it in the feature of this car?" he asked, looking at her.
"Hey, hee hee hee, are you worried that I am gifting this illegal vehicle to you now?" Diana responded with a question cheekily. "Don't worry, like I said before. This is not the real one, but it's way more, more, better than the original version. And I made the Yamamoto Company upgrade it after giving them all the necessary government paperworks. It is absolutely a clean deal and this baby here is completely legit. Also, there shall be no issue with you owning it as you are already a military 7th grade officer. Fine, if you don't believe me, then I shall take it back." Diana explained and stretched her hand toward him for the small black ball, the AI of the car.
Meanwhile, the red vehicle transformed and stopped finally after it became the size of a toy.
"Nope, it's now mine." Bobby then picked up the small toy sized car. It was also light, must be at least a couple of hundred grams. He then further said to her, "I believe you." "Also, even if this baby is illegal, I will still keep it. Diana, you must have spent a fortune to make this baby, right?"
"Right, you would not believe me what I just went through to make this baby here. It was really a tough deal, you know." Diana replied, then she sighed like an old lady.
"Oh, what deal? I am listening." Bobby asked curiously.
"Aaah, I have to meet that old fart grandpa of mine!" Diana screamed with annoyance.
"Hah, meeting your grandpa! That easy!!" Bobby exclaimed, as he was expecting to hear her say she at least spent half of her fortune to make the deal.
"Easy! Stop joking with me. I would rather jump and swim all across the Atlantic ocean than to meet that old fashion, boorish idiot. That old man always keeps nagging me all the time to do this and that. Ugh! It really ticks me off!" Diana explained while making a wronged expression and almost shivered her body at the end of her statement.
"Hah!" Bobby exclaimed again as her strange expression took him aback. "He nags you. That means he must have doted on you the most among his grandchildren, right? " He said and thought, "This lost girl must be really from a super rich family after all."
"I rather not…" and she shrugged.
Bobby thought of something and asked, "Diana, don't tell me this is the only feature you added to this baby, right? "
Diana grinned at him and said, "What do you think? I went through all that just to add only this feature?" "You better check the vehicle's usual manual later. Hee hee hee, I bet it would be a surprise for a techie guy like you too."
