The Wrath of the Walmart Janitor
By: Dornic and Mom
The life of a robot isn't great. Especially when you're the head janitor of a Walmart. All those customers staring at you. All the small children were either fascinated or terrified. All the isles. Gigatron suffered from this. From the attention. So as one would usually suspect the victims of this suffrage would turn wild and savage when they snap. One day in aisle 4, the canned section of the Walmart. A small child customer knocked over 5 cans of canned peaches all onto the floor and it spills everywhere. Gigatron hated a lot of things, but the one thing that NAME hated that was food related was peaches. He hated them with a burning passion. He ran out of the aisle in a blind rage and went to the home appliance section, which was his peaceful place since no one ever goes to the home appliance section in a Walmart. He started a sobbing smash of sadnessing things that were in his view. He smashed all of the glasses, Tupperware and other things. Suddenly, he didn't realize that he was smashing the vases. He realized what he had done. There was this vase. A beautiful bright blue vase with pretty white flowers. Her name was Vasely. Gigatron loved this vase with all his heart. He would clean the home appliance aisle for hours just so he could flirt with this vase. She was very kind to Gigatron even when others weren't, But Gigatron crushed this vase with the sobbing smash of sadness. He realized what he had done and quickly picked up the pieces, sobbing as he did so. He put the broken pieces of the vase, and the broken pieces of his heart. He quickly rushed to the stationary aisle and got fake Elmer's glue and frantically put the pieces together. It took hours even after Walmart closed. He worked and worked to put her back together, sobbing frantically while doing so. Finally, after hours of work well into the night, he put the last piece together. His small chance of hope flickered in his robotic eyes, but the vase was a mess, with glue everywhere and broken pieces, she was no longer the vase she was before. As the cleaning janitor sobbed and sobbed for her beauty was gone because of him. Her bright blue coat was now splattered with glue and cracks, her pretty flowers all put together messily. “I'm sorry Vasely '' the robot mumbles as he sobs and sobs. “Gigatron…” the vase spoke weakly in his hands. Vasely may not have a face, but Gigatron could tell that she was smiling weakly as they both could tell that these were her last moments. “You were always gentle when dusting around me…I have always appreciated that…” Vasely says with a husky voice, but her beautiful voice still rang through the aisle of the empty Walmart. “I may not have had a home…but at least I had a friend…thank you…” She says, still smiling brightly as Gigatron sobs quietly. “Don't go…” Gigatron mumbles sadly as he holds her shakily in his hands. “Maybe I'll have a home in the afterlife… somewhere on a shelf…with water and white flowers standing tall and beautiful in me...” Vasely says as Gigatron's sobs grow louder. “Thank you…for making me feel special. Even though there are many who look like me. Thank you for giving me a wonderful life…” Vasely speaks her last words and the fake Elmer's glue and her pieces peacefully shatter in Gigatron's hand. Emotions run wild within the robot (ironic right?). He speeds over to the tools section in a blind rage and sadness and gets the pliers off the shelf. He opens his control panel and starts ripping out wires violently. He grabs a hammer and smashes his frame until it is beyond repair. His robotic hand drops the hammer slowly and he slowly shuts down. The employees find him in the morning along with the broken vase. The employees dump the remains of Vasely in the trash like she's nothing. The employees ship Gigatron to the repair shop as they try to fix him, but he is beyond repair. The Walmart CEO’s decide to scrap him and he gets shipped to the junkyard where a rat family lives within his frame.
