The Last Of Me (Astro Boy x Robot Reader)

Take Us Away

~~~

Once Astro had arrived 'home' he unlocked the gate and drove inside. What Astro now called home, was an abandoned company shed. Astro got out of his car and shut the door behind him. He walked to and stepped inside the main part of the building and was met with Reno, who closed the curtains of a window to keep the sun out. In the background, Astro could hear Doctor O'shay spouting nonsense in his room.

Reno walked to the end of the room and grabbed a bottle of water. "He's having a bad day." Reno said, referring to the doctor. Astro glanced at his old friend and shook his head.

"They're all bad days." Astro replied, placing medication on a table. Reno frowned and grabbed the medication, taking a look at it.

"This is not enough you know." Reno shook his head. "It wont see us through the week."

"I'm working on it." Astro replied. Reno walked up to Astro, towering over him, even more than he used to when he was young.

"It's your turn." He passed the meds to Astro. "I've had a rough night." He told.

"Well.." Astro grabbed the bag. "Poor you." He grumbled. Astro grabbed a clean needle packet from the medicine cabinet and walked to the main shed into the next door room where O'shay was.

"Friends, I have good news for you today! It's not about what you do. It's not about your deed. He knows what you can't. It's Okay, we are imperfect!" O'shay was zooming around on his electric wheelchair shouting nonsense and things that didn't make sense. Once he heard Astro come in, he stopped and turned his wheelchair around to face Astro. "We can live up to God's expectations! He knows we can!" O'shay started to steer near Astro but stopped in front of him. "Make way sir." O'shay sternly told Astro, whom didn't move. "I said make way!"

Astro had gotten the needle ready with medicine and was about to inject O'shay but he reversed and continued to say random things. Astro shook his head and cornered O'shay once again, this time he pulled up the doctors jacket from his arm and got the needle ready.

"Who are you?" O'shay asked.

"You know who I am." Astro frowned.

"You're the boy who puts me to sleep.." O'shay stared off into nothing. Astro flicked the needle to free it of air bubbles.

"We both could use some sleep." Astro commented, close to injecting the old doctor.

"No!" O'shay cried, grabbing Astro's arm. Astro tried to fight off his grip and quickly get the medication into his body so he would calm down. O'shay tried to push Astro away only to make himself fall off his chair. He laid on the ground, curled into and uncomfortable ball. "What are you doing to me..." O'shay shakily asked.

"Doctor!" Astro rushed to O'shay's side and noticed he was starting to have a seizure. Astro quickly pricked his arm with the needle and pushed the liquid into his bloodstream. O'shay's convulsions soon ceased.

"How long have I been here?" The old man asked. Astro didn't reply, he just picked up O'shay and placed him onto his bed. Astro grabbed the rest of the medication and placed two tablets into O'shay's hand. "What are these?" He asked.

"You remember what they are." Astro grabbed some water. "Shocks or seizures, this medication will help to stop happening to you."

"Astro.."

"so you remember who I am now?" Astro asked, leaning on O'shay's bed.

"I always remember who you are. I just don't recognise you." O'shay said, taking the pills and washing them down with some water. Astro sighed and looked down. He turned to the side and started sorting through O'shay's books.
