Ali (Fiction 101 Series)
She sat in the dark.
In the arcade after hours, she powered down to recharge. During
this time, she traveled around the world and saw all the advancements of
mankind. And wars. And unification. And famine. And the first landing on Mars
and then Titan. She traveled to her home planet and beyond – eventually to
another galaxy. She witnessed the rise and fall of many kingdoms. Then her recharge
cycle ended.
Saturday morning came and the arcade opened. Boys and
girls flooded inside. It was time to insert coin and play again. The Coors
calendar on the wall read, August 1982.
