Xypo-6 Decides to Buy Balloons

His name was Xypo-6, he was a robot. Gripping 28 balloons, he flew over his home planet Hubbbbvou while pondering his situation, which was precarious at best. Xypo-6 searched his database for any information pertaining to soaring 600 meters over rocky terrain (more specifically, the Gagaragamoomoo Mountains in the western hemisphere of Hubbbbvou). His memory scan produced nothing, not even a mere kilobyte of data; nada. "This is going to get worse before it gets better", he thought to himself as clouds whispered by. The ground descended further and further away. In his peripheral vision he spotted the reds, the greens and the purples of the latex treasures he had purchased just minutes before. But as the atmosphere grew darker, he realized he was entering deep space.

If only he would just let go.
