Jennifer
takes Molly on an adventure Segment 7
It
was several days since Jennifer had first met Molly Sterling and had
given Molly superhuman powers that Molly could never have dreamt of.
Jennifer was parked in orbit over the farm where Molly lived in
Northern Rhode Island where she could watch over her and monitor the
signals that her newly integrated electrical parts were emitting. So
far, Molly was OK and had not told anyone about her bizarre
experience of meeting Jennifer on the top of Mound Hill several days
ago.
Jennifer
was getting ready to do her daily sector report to her commander back
at Rachel City. Her commander was expecting her to call and she had
already told him about Molly the previous morning. The commander
asked Jennifer what she thought of Molly and Jennifer said that Molly
was fine so far although all of her systems had not come on line yet.
Jennifer reckoned it would take at least another week for all of
Molly's systems to fully function.
The
commander said to bring Molly to Rachel city for a visit that evening
so he could see how she reacted to the future. Jennifer said that
she would do that. That afternoon while Molly was walking home she
heard Jennifer's voice in her mind and Molly answered just by
thinking the words. Jennifer said that they had to take a trip for
the evening because there were some people that wanted to meet her.
Molly said OK and that she would walk up the hill after dinner, but
where were they going? Jennifer told Molly that they were going to
her home city in Rachel, Nevada in the 31st century, but
not to worry and she would find it very interesting.
That
evening Molly walked up the hill where Jennifer was waiting for her
and suddenly Molly found herself inside the space ship. The two of
them went back to the salon and made themselves comfortable.
Jennifer said that she wanted to explain about
Rachel City and the 31st century to her. She told Molly
that the city would appear very different to her mostly because they
would be 1000 years into the future. Everyone had electricity
now and many more machines were operated electrically. There
would also be many more bright lights in the evening. This was all
because some very smart scientists had figured out how to easily
extract electricity from particles that were flying around freely all
over the universe. Molly asked Jennifer why their headquarters were
in Nevada. Molly said that she had read in a magazine that Nevada was
just a big dry desert. Jennifer told Molly it was not a desert
anymore and that some other smart scientists had invented machines
that took in gases from the atmosphere and using all the free
electricity available they could convert the atmosphere into as much
water as they needed. Nevada was now full of lakes and gardens.
There
were farms that were run by robots that grew and packaged
fruit
and vegetables day after day and they were in many parts of the
country. Most cities had their own robot fresh food gardens There was free power everywhere and no one worked anymore. There were
even robots who designed and built the robots. Everything was
delivered instantly by large transport space ships that were also operated by
robots. No one worked unless they wanted to. Work was now a form of
recreation for those who wanted it. The robot machines were everywhere and they did
everything. People were free to paint , invent, sculpt, make movies
or music or do anything they wanted to do.
Jennifer suddenly stopped
talking and said that they had arrived and it was time to tour the city and then to meet the
commander.
