Cindelaras

Once upon a time, there was a popular game on Jenggala Kingdom. They called it Robot fighting. It was Professor Putra, the one who invented this game by making robots to be fought one another. He had two apprentices. They were Cindelaras and Concubine.

Cindelaras was good and smart in making robot which always made Professor Putra proud of him. Unfortunately, it made Concubine jealous. Concubine then set a plan to kick Cindelaras out of rofesor Putra’s lab. One day, Concubine made many fake wound in his body. He lied to Professor Putra that Cindelaras’ robot did a forbidden action toward him, it attacked him.

“No sir! I have programmed my robot not to attack people, it must be a mistake!” said Cindelaras.

“You make me disappointed Cindelaras. I thought you were a god boy,” replied Professor Putra.

Then, Professor Putra asked his assistant, Guardian, to break all of Cindelaras’ robots and put Cindelaras to a remote island. Fortunately, Guardian knew the truth. He took Cindelaras to his house instead of taking Cindelaras to The Remote Island.

            Meanwhile, Cindelaras insisted to prove that he was right. With a help from Guardian, he made a robot as a proof to Professor Putra that his robot never attacking people. Few months later, Cindelaras’ robot was finished fixing his robots. He decided to get back to Professor Putra’s lab and clarify that his robots never attacked people.

Sadly, The Lab Keeper did not let Cindelaras to meet Professor Putra. Surprisingly, Guardian had an idea. He asked Cindelaras to disguise into an ordinary boy and win as many robot fighting as he could. He also taught Cindelaras to make his robot said “I am Cindelaras’ robot and Iam never attacked people” every time it won a game so that everyone knew that Cindelaras was a good boy. As the time went by, Cindelaras won many robot fighting that made Professor Putra want to know how strong Cindelaras’ robot was by challenged him.

“How if I win?” asked Cindelaras.

“I will give you money. Yet, if you lose, your robot belongs to me!” answered Professor Putra.

“Okay, I will do it!” replied Cindelaras bravely.

Luckily, Cindelaras’ robot won the game. As what Cindelaras’ robot had been programmed before, after defeating Professor Putra’s robot, it automatically said “I am Cindelaras’ robot and I am never attacked people”

“Is that true? Are you Cindelaras?” asked Professor Putra.

“Yes, I am.” Replied Cindelaras.

Professor Putra was angry. He called Guardian and asked him why Cindelaras could come to his lab. Then, Guardian explained to Professor Putra what exactly happened. He raised his index finger to Concubine to show that the one who should be blamed was Concubine. At the same time, unexpectedly Concubine’s robot detected a threat toward his master and then punched Guardian on the stomach. It was known that Concubine obsessed to use robot for military purposes. That action finally convinced Professor Putra that Concubine was the bad boy, not Cindelaras. At last, Concubine was isolated to the remote island, Guardian recovered of his pain, while Cindelaras was reaccepted to become an apprentice of Professor Putra so that he could learn more about robot fighting.
