Robots
Ben ran over to the bike rack. "Jessy, guess what?"
Jessy waved goodbye to her dad and turned to lock up her bike. "What?" She took off her helmet and smiled at him.
"You know my robot I've been building?"
"Of course." Jessy looked interested.
"Well..." Ben looked around to make sure no one was listening. He spoke in a whisper. "I know this sounds crazy, but it really works."
Troy laughs. "The North Pole is a long way from here."
"Our spaceship is very fast!" Googol says.
Troy's eyes light up. "You have a spaceship?"
"It's on the roof of your house," Googolplex says.
Troy looks at Pippa. "We could go with them if they promise to have us back before dinner."
Googol and Googolplex's spaceship makes a soft buzzing noise and it is invisible to humans. Pippa thinks a bee is flying around them. She waves her hands to shoo it away.
Troy stands up in the pool. The buzzing stops. He smiles.
"It's not a bee, silly. Look!" he says.
Pippa turns her head just in time to see Googol and Googolplex roll down the ramp out of their spaceship.
"Googol! Googolplex!"
Troy and Pippa jump out of the pool and run toward their friends.
