"To assimilate you, of course. There's really no use struggling,<br />

you know."<br />

"But what do you want with us?" Fred was really weirded out<br />

by now.<br />

"Oh, that's easy. We want to make you our slave. We want to<br />

wear you down into a cog, to replace earlier cogs which have<br />

grown old and died in our service. We want you to be a proper<br />

bottom line. We want humans to be food tubes, ants, mindless<br />

automatons. You tend to be more profitable for us, that way."<br />

"That's horrible!", Fred exclaimed.<br />

"Not from our perspective. Now, kindly stand still, while we<br />

assure you. In fact, you will enjoy it. No more worries, no more<br />

cares...we will do all that for you.", the man said, reaching for<br />

Machine, seeing him turn, laughed again.<br />

"You'll be back", it said, "Your kind always are."<br />

Fred fled forth, into the desert.<br />
