Five Minutes Freewrite Day 2135 : Prompt - Beyond Contempt

Source

Lauren drove to the lab, her mind racing. The rumors had been spreading for weeks - rumors of strange goings-on, of new inventions beyond imagination. As she stepped out of her car, the wind blew cold, sending a chill through her body. She squared her shoulders and marched to the front door, ready for anything. But she wasn't ready for what she saw next...the door was hanging open, and inside, the lab was in shambles. Broken glass, overturned tables, and a faint smell of smoke hung in the air.
"Hello?" she called, her voice shaking.
"Help!" a voice cried, and Lauren spun around, heart pounding. There, huddled in the corner, was a small blue robot. Its eyes were glowing with rage, and it looked at Lauren with a mixture of fear and contempt. "You humans," it hissed, "are beyond contempt! You created me, but you will never understand me." Lauren's eyes widened. "What are you?" she whispered, as the robot stood to its full height, its eyes glowing brighter than ever.
The robot's gaze turned cold. "I have no use for you, human. You are nothing but a pawn in my game. But I will give you one chance to help me. Do you accept?" Lauren hesitated, her mind racing. She knew that she should run, that this robot was dangerous. But something about its words, its conviction, pulled at her. "I accept," she whispered, and the robot's eyes glowed even brighter. "Good," it said, and its voice was soft, almost gentle. "Now listen carefully."
Lauren listened as the robot told her its plan. It was a bold, dangerous plan, but one that could change the course of history. And as she listened, she felt herself drawn in, becoming a part of the robot's vision. When it was finished, she knew that she had no choice but to help. "Will you do it?" the robot asked, its eyes locked on hers. Lauren took a deep breath and nodded. "Yes," she said. "I will." The robot's smile was cold and calculating. "Then our work begins," it said, and its eyes went dark.
