Prologue
In the vast regions of outer space, beyond the twinkling lights of a million stars, a murky, smog-covered Earth floats lonely and silent. The deepest oceans are all but dried and gone. What had once been blue sky is now a dust-choked brown that can still look almost golden when sunlight filters through it.
Beneath the thick atmosphere that surrounds the planet, mountains still rise up through the haze, and once-great cities filled with vacant, crumbling buildings share the landscape with towers of trash, neatly cubed and stacked as far as the eye can see. Only one thing moves along this bleak twenty-ninth-century skyline.
Day in and day out, for more than seven hundred years, he has worked to clean up the mess left by humankind. The scouring sands that sweep along the avenues seldom deter him as he thrusts his shovel-like hands into the heaps of trash and scoops it into the compacting unit in his chest. Once full, he closes the squeaky doors of his front panel, shakes a little, and produces yet another perfect cube ready to be stacked.
This is his directive.
It is what he has been programmed to do.
His name is WALL·E: Waste Allocation Load Lifter, Earth class.
He is a robot.
He is dented, dirty, and rusted ...
And he is about to change the entire world.
序言
在浩瀚的外太空中，在上百万颗闪闪发亮的星球的另一边，阴暗的地球笼罩在一团烟雾中，在孤单单、静悄悄地漂浮着。地球上最深的海洋都已干涸，不复存在。曾经蔚蓝的天空，而今被灰尘遮蔽，变成褐色，只有在阳光穿透它时，看上去才接近金色。
厚厚的大气层包裹着地球。在大气层下面，群山依旧挺拔，却是耸立在雾霾之上。曾经繁华的大城市空无一人，到处都是破损坍塌的大楼。风景中还有一座座高耸的垃圾堆—垃圾被压成一个个方块，整整齐齐地摞成高塔，一望无际。二十九世纪荒凉的地平线上只有一个物体在移动。
七百多年来，他日复一日地清理着人类遗留下的垃圾。粗糙的沙土横扫过街道，却没能阻挡他的工作。他将铁铲形的双手插入垃圾堆中，再将垃圾揽到他胸部的压缩部件内。等压缩部件满了，他就关上胸前面板上嘎吱作响的门，微微摇晃，将垃圾压缩成一个完美的方块，只等着被摞起来。
这是他的指令。
他的程序设定就是做这些。
他的名字叫作“瓦力”，是一台地球垃圾分装装置。
他是一个机器人。
他浑身遍布凹痕、污垢和锈迹……
他将要改变整个世界。
Chapter 1
“Chirrrp!” A little cockroach jumped happily onto WALL·E’s shoulder. As the toxic winds began to pick up speed, WALL·E and his only companion motored bouncily toward home. WALL·E’s treads were wearing thin, and the cockroach held on bravely as they crossed the rough terrain.
Over miles of desolate waste, WALL·E saw buildings and highways and rolled across the remains of broken bridges. Everything was branded with the same logo: BUY-N-LARGE. BnL had its stamp on everything. The mega-superstore had once overseen almost all operations on the planet.
As WALL·E hurried onward, he rolled over an old newspaper. TOO MUCH TRASH! EARTH COVERED! BNL CEO DECLARES GLOBAL EMERGENCY! the headline proclaimed. WALL·E did not notice.
He passed a salvage yard full of other rusted WALL·E units, shut down long ago. The cockroach watched eagerly as WALL·E stopped to examine something of interest on one of the old units—its treads.
The treads were thick bands of rubber, built to protect the WALL·E units’ metallic wheels like giant tires. This old unit’s treads were in much better shape than WALL·E’s.
WALL·E quickly switched his old pair for the newer ones as the cockroach chirped and jumped excitedly. Then, moving on, WALL·E felt the cockroach settling happily on his shoulder, enjoying the new, smoother ride.
WALL·E rolled past a BnL billboard, activating its holo-graphic message as he moved. The image buzzed to life. Several loudspeakers began broadcasting the chipper voice of a human announcer, recorded centuries ago.
“Too much garbage in your face?
There’s plenty of space out in space!
BnL star liners leaving each day.
We’ll clean up the mess while you’re away!”
WALL·E headed across a bumpy freeway over-pass, activating another ancient billboard. Through the smoggy haze, the image of a sparkling BnL star liner flashed onto the screen. Its happy passengers appeared to be enjoying all the amenities of a luxury cruise ship.
“The jewel of the BnL fleet: The Axiom!” the announcer’s voice boomed. “Spend your five-year cruise in style ...” But the people had been gone from Earth far longer than five years.
“The Axiom!” the voice exclaimed proudly. “Putting the ‘star’ in ‘executive star liner.’”
The wind was starting to howl now. WALL·E squinted and turned on a set of tiny windshield wipers to clean the lenses of his eyes. Looking across a bay that had dried up long ago, he saw a battered old BnL truck. WALL·E’s spirits rose.
第 1 章
“吱吱—”一只小蟑螂快乐地跳上瓦力的肩膀。携带有毒物质的风加速了，瓦力载着他唯一的伙伴，颠簸着朝家驶去。瓦力的履带越磨越薄，他们穿越这个崎岖的地带时小蟑螂勇敢地抓紧他。隔着几英里荒芜的垃圾堆，瓦力看见了一排排大楼和一条条公路。他慢慢行驶过残存的断损桥梁。所有物品都打着同样的商标：大卖场。大卖场在任何事物上都打上了它的印记。这家巨型超市曾经几乎掌管着这个星球上所有的业务。
当瓦力向前赶路的时候，他的履带压过一张旧报纸，上面的标题写着：“垃圾太多！地球已被覆盖！大卖场首席执行官宣称全球告急！”瓦力没有留意。
他路过一个早就关闭了的废品回收场，里面满是其他生锈的地球垃圾分装装置。蟑螂关切地看着瓦力停下来检视其中一个旧装置上某个让他感兴趣的东西—它的履带。
这些履带由厚橡胶带制成，就像巨型轮胎一样，用于保护地球垃圾分装装置的金属轮子。这具旧装置的履带状态要比瓦力的好得多。
伴随着蟑螂的吱吱声与兴奋的跳跃，瓦力快速地将自己的旧履带换成了较新的那对。然后，瓦力继续前行时，感觉到蟑螂愉快地歇在他肩上，享受这段更平稳的新旅程。
瓦力从一块大卖场广告牌前驶过，他的移动触发了它所储存的全息影像信息。几个扬声器开始播放几个世纪前录制的一位人类播音员爽朗的话音，生动的影像伴着这阵热闹浮现。“垃圾太多，束手无策？“在太空中还有充足的空间！“大卖场星际航班每日出航。“我们将在您离开期间，把垃圾清理干净！”
瓦力沿着一条颠簸的高架快速公路行驶，激活了另一块古老的广告牌。一艘闪闪发光的大卖场星际飞船的影像穿过浓浓的雾霾闪现在屏幕上，船上的乘客们正在愉快地享受着豪华邮轮上的各种便利设施。“大卖场舰队中的珍宝：‘功理’号！”播音员低沉的声音响起，“享受五年的太空奢华之旅……”但这些人离开地球的时间已经远远不止五年。“‘功理’号！”播音员骄傲地大声说道，“高级星际航空公司的星级航班。”
此时风开始咆哮。瓦力眯起眼睛，打开一对微型雨刮器来清洁他作为眼睛的镜头。他向一片早已干涸的海湾的另一侧望去，看见一辆破旧的大卖场旧货车。瓦力的情绪变得高昂起来。
Chapter 2
WALL·E picked up his pace as he headed toward his truck. He scurried up and pulled a lever on the truck’s side. Slowly the back began to come down, and WALL·E happily sped up the ramp and into the trailer. Home!
The wind whipped the truck as WALL·E peeled his new rubber treads from his wheels. He would put them on again in the morning before returning to work. But now it was time to relax. He removed a battered BnL cooler from his back. It was his collection box, and he was ready to begin the nightly ritual of going through the treasures he had found in the trash during the day.
But first, WALL·E went to an old television set and turned on his favorite video: Hello, Dolly! He always played it when he arrived home. After watching the video for a minute, he turned back to press a button that activated the rotating racks of shelves where he neatly stored his treasures. The day had yielded some very special finds: a few old toys and utensils (all of which made WALL·E curious, since he didn’t know what they were) and a lighter.
As he listened to the background music from the video, WALL·E perked up. He moved among his many treasures, stopping often in front of the fuzzy images scrolling across his television screen. The actors were singing and dancing to the song WALL·E had been humming all day. He paused, waiting for the next part. When it came, he hit the Record button on his chest and moved closer. WALL·E could see that the actors were not dancing now. They were walking together and looking into each other’s eyes. Then they took each other’s hands.
WALL·E tilted his head, his large eyes gazing tenderly at the screen. He interlocked his own two robotic hands. And for a moment the lonely robot wondered what it would be like to hold someone else’s hand.
Later that night, when the storm had ended, WALL·E rolled outside and turned over his collection box to clean it out. He pressed the Play button on his chest and listened to the song again. Although the little robot wasn’t programmed to understand romance, it was romance that pulsed through his circuits. It was this same strange impulse that made WALL·E gaze up at the few stars visible through the polluted haze and wish for someone to share his world.
Suddenly, WALL·E’s internal systems gave him a warning sign. The wind was picking up again. WALL·E checked the horizon. A massive sandstorm was approaching across the dried-up bay.
WALL·E swiftly headed back into the truck. He was familiar with the dangers of being caught in a sandstorm—air so clogged with dirt and debris that he wouldn’t be able to see; whipping winds that would fill every crevice in his robotic joints with sand; and, of course, the chance of being buried. This time he was lucky: he was close to the safety of his truck.
A blinding wave of sand roared closer as WALL·E entered the truck and began to raise its door. He stopped for a moment, remembering, and then turned and made a robotic noise—like a whistle—to call for his cockroach. The door shut just as the storm hit, with both master and pet safe inside their little home.
WALL·E unwrapped a BnL sponge cake and set it on a shelf. Still moist from the preservatives that had kept it intact for centuries, the little cake made a comfy cockroach bed.
WALL·E collapsed into a box shape and backed into an empty shelf. Rocking the shelf back and forth like a cradle, he closed his eyes and shut down for the night. Outside, the full force of the storm raged across the terrain.
第 2 章
瓦力加快速度向着他的货车驶去。他匆匆赶过去，拉动货车一侧的拉杆。货车尾部的车厢门慢慢降下来，瓦力开心地加速驶上坡道，进入车厢。到家了！
瓦力将他的新橡胶履带从轮子上剥了下来，而外面狂风正抽打着货车。他会在早上回去工作之前再戴上这对履带，但是现在是休息的时间。他从背部取下一台破破烂烂的大卖场冷藏箱。这是他的百宝箱，接下来他准备开始他每晚的例行活动——整理他白天在垃圾堆里找到的珍宝。
但是在那之前，瓦力走到一台旧电视机前，打开了他最喜爱的录像节目《你好，多莉！》。他总是一回家就播放它。看了一分钟录像后，他转身按下一个按钮，启动了一个旋转储物架。储物架的搁板上整整齐齐地摆放着他的宝贝们。今天他发现了一些非常特别的东西：几个旧玩具和厨房用具（他不知道它们是什么，所以对它们非常好奇），还有一个打火机。
听着录像带的背景音乐，瓦力感到活力充沛。他在众多的宝贝间移动，经常停在电视机前看着屏幕上闪过的模糊影像。演员们起舞歌唱，伴奏的正是瓦力一整天都在哼着的那首曲子。他停了下来，等着播放下一部分。等开始放下个部分的时候，他按下胸前的“录音键”，并靠近电视机。瓦力能看见演员们现在不跳舞了。他们一起走着，互相注视着对方的眼睛。然后，他们握住了对方的手。
瓦力歪了歪脑袋，他的大眼睛温柔地盯着电视屏幕。他将自己的两只机械手交握在一起。这个孤独的机器人疑惑了好一会儿：握住别人的手会是什么感觉？
那晚深夜，暴风雨停歇了，瓦力慢慢驶到货车外，将他的百宝箱倒过来清理干净。他按下胸前的“播放”键，重听那首歌。虽然这个小机器人的程序设定中没有对爱情的理解，他的线路中却搏动着浪漫的冲动。正是这种奇怪的冲动使瓦力抬头凝视着浓浓雾霾中仅仅可见的几颗星星，希望有人能和他共享他的世界。
突然，瓦力的内部系统发出了一个警告信号。风又加速了。瓦力看向地平线，发现一场超强的沙暴正从干涸的海湾那里向他袭来。
瓦力迅速驶向货车。他很熟悉遇上沙暴可能面临的种种危险——空气中满是灰尘和碎片，他会看不见；狂风会抽打着他，使他机械关节的各个缝隙里都填满沙子；当然，还有被深埋的可能性。这一次他很幸运，因为他离他的货车不远，那里很安全。
在瓦力进入货车开始升起车厢门的时候，一阵让人睁不开眼睛的风沙咆哮着向他越靠越近。他停顿了一下，想起了一件事，然后转身发出类似口哨的机械声音来召唤他的蟑螂。沙暴眼看要袭来，车门恰好关闭，主人和他的宠物进入了他们安全的小家。
瓦力打开一块大卖场的海绵蛋糕，将它放在一块搁板上。蛋糕里的防腐剂使其几百年来都没有腐坏，还保持着湿润。这一小块蛋糕成了蟑螂舒适的床铺。
瓦力收缩成盒子形状，后退到一块空搁板上。他让搁板像摇篮一样前后晃动，然后闭上眼睛，关闭电源过夜。车厢外，沙暴威力十足，在这片土地上肆虐。
Chapter 3
“WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!” WALL·E’s charge-meter light flashed at a dangerously low level the next morning.
“Mmrrr,” WALL·E groaned. It was hard to wake up! Still groggy, he made his way outside and crawled up a ramp of trash to the top of his truck. Once settled, he opened his solar panels to the hazy sun. He stretched his tiny arms and felt a surge of power run through his little cables. Finally feeling awake, he heard his solar panel chime, indicating that his electronics were fully charged for a day’s work.
WALL·E happily got down from the roof and fastened his collection box to his back. He was ready to head out to work. As he rolled down the truck’s ramp, suddenly—CRUNCH!
Horrified, WALL·E realized that he had accidentally rolled over the cockroach! WALL·E moved away and stared at his pet’s flattened body.
“Ohhhh,” WALL·E whined. He looked down at his pet, searching for signs of life.
POP! The bug sprang up, happy as ever, and none the worse for wear! Relieved, WALL·E let his pet hop onto his shoulder for a ride and started out again.
The day began with the usual task a WALL·E unit would expect to perform on a desolate, trash-filled planet: compacting trash. But for WALL·E, the garbage contained treasures. Thinking beyond his robotic programming, WALL·E was always looking for new things buried in the trash—things that he could add to his collections. Had there been any other robots or people on the planet, they might have thought it was a bit odd for a bot to be interested in anything other than his predetermined directive.
Today a set of car keys caught WALL·E’s attention. Not knowing what they were, he went about inspecting them. He pushed the remote lock button, and somewhere deep in the trash heap a car alarm chirped. That was interesting.
Next WALL·E came across a diamond ring in a little case. He closed the case with a snap. Open. Snap! Close. Snap! The case was fun! WALL·E tossed the ring back into the trash but carefully packed up the case to take home. He also found a rubber ducky, a bobble-head doll, and an old boot. They were definitely deserving of further attention—and possibly worthy of going into his collections.
He came upon a paddle with a ball attached to it by an elastic string. When he shook it, the ball rapidly bounced against the paddle. The bouncing action delighted WALL·E, until—POP!—the ball smacked him right between the eyes!
“Eee!” WALL·E beeped. He didn’t like this thing at all. He quickly tossed the paddle aside and turned toward something else—a fire extinguisher, though WALL·E didn’t know that. He simply saw something that was red and kind of heavy. WALL·E examined it until he found what he was looking for: a lever. Usually, levers activated something. WALL·E pulled it.
WHOOSH! The blast from the extinguisher propelled WALL·E into a loop-the-loop, spinning him over and over until he finally crash-landed in the trash. WALL·E moaned. He couldn’t figure out what use humans had found for this shiny red object. Perhaps it had been some sort of game, but he didn’t like it. Time to move on.
Digging and digging, WALL·E soon saw an old white refrigerator. He activated a welding beam between his large binocular-like eyes and cut the door down the middle. With a clang, the two pieces of the door fell off the refrigerator. WALL·E looked inside and saw a small green object in a corner. It was sprouting from a pile of dark brown soil. WALL·E gazed at it in wonder. Now, this was something really unusual. He didn’t know why, but he liked it. The object had a stem with flat green ovals hanging from it. Gently, he picked it up. Making sure that it was safely cushioned in its soil, he placed it inside the old boot he’d found earlier. He tucked the object inside his box to examine later.
WALL·E sensed that the green thing was special. What he didn’t know was that it was a plant.
第 3 章
“警告！警告！警告！”第二天早上，瓦力的电量灯不停闪烁着，提示其电量过低。“唉——”瓦力呻吟道。醒来太痛苦！虚弱无力的他摇摇摆摆地驶到车外，沿着垃圾铺成的坡道爬到货车顶部。停妥后，他迎着朦胧的太阳打开了他的太阳能电池板。他伸展开他的小胳膊，感到一阵电流在他细细的电线间涌动。他终于觉得自己清醒了，听到他的太阳能电池板发出铃声，提示他的电子设备电量都已充满，足够支撑他一天的工作。瓦力开心地从车顶驶下来，将他的百宝箱固定在他背上。他已准备好出发去工作。当他沿着货车的坡道驶下去的时候，突然传来“嘎吱”一声！
惊吓之下，瓦力意识到他无意中从蟑螂身上压了过去！瓦力挪开身子，盯着他宠物那被压扁了的身体。“嗷——”瓦力不禁哀嚎。他低头看着他的宠物，试图寻找生命的迹象。“砰”的一声，蟑螂跳了起来，和原来一样快活，毫发无伤！瓦力松了一大口气，让他的宠物跳上他的肩头，坐在那里，就又出发了。
这一天的工作以压缩垃圾开始，这是每一台地球垃圾分装装置在一个荒无人烟、垃圾遍地的星球上的常规任务。但是对于瓦力而言，垃圾中藏着宝藏。瓦力的思维已经超出他作为机器人的程序设定，他总是在垃圾中寻找被埋藏的新事物——那些他可以加入他的藏品中的东西。如果这个星球上有其他机器人或者人类，他们可能会认为机器人对其预设的指令之外的事情感兴趣有点古怪。
今天一串汽车钥匙吸引了瓦力的注意力。他不知道它们是什么，就仔细地查看了它们。他按了一下遥控钥匙上的锁车键，垃圾堆深处就传来了汽车防盗报警器发出的“啾啾”声。这真有趣。
接着瓦力发现了一枚在小盒子里放着的钻戒。他“啪”的一声合上了盒子，又“啪”的一声打开了。“啪”的一声他又合上了。这个盒子太有趣了！瓦力将钻戒扔回垃圾堆，却小心翼翼地将盒子装好准备带回家。他还找到了一只橡皮鸭、一个会摇头的娃娃和一只旧靴子。它们绝对值得进一步研究——也许还值得放进他的藏品中。
他发现了一个球拍，一根橡皮筋把它和一个球连在了一起。他摇了摇球拍，球快速地在球拍上来回弹跳。球的弹跳让瓦力很开心，直到球“砰”的一声正砸在他两眼之间。“哔——”瓦力叫道。他一点都不喜欢这个东西。他迅速地将球拍抛到一边，转向另一样东西——一个灭火器，虽然他不知道它是什么。他只是看见了一样红色的、有点沉的东西。瓦力细细查看它，直到找到了他要找的东西：一根拉杆。拉杆通常都能启动什么东西。瓦力拉动了拉杆。“呼”的一声，灭火器喷出一股泡沫，撞得瓦力在半空中连翻了几个跟头，一阵天旋地转之后终于摔落在垃圾堆中。瓦力呻吟一声。他想象不出人类能拿这个闪亮的红色物品派什么用处。也许这是用来玩某种游戏的，但他不喜欢这个游戏。该继续干活了。
挖呀，挖呀，不久之后瓦力看见一台白色的旧冰箱。他那像双筒望远镜的大眼睛间发射出一道焊接激光，将冰箱门从中间截断变成两片。“当啷”一声，这两片门从冰箱上脱落下来。瓦力向冰箱内看去，只见在角落里有一个小小的绿色物品。它正从一堆深褐色的泥土中抽出芽来。瓦力好奇地盯着它。嗯，这东西真不同寻常。他不知道为什么，但就是喜欢它。这个物品的茎上悬着几个绿色的椭圆薄片。他轻轻将它拿起，确保它被完好地包裹在泥土中，然后将它放在了他之前发现的旧靴子里。他将这个物品收在他的百宝箱里准备以后再查看。
瓦力意识到这个绿色物品很特别。他所不知道的是它是一株植物。
Chapter 4
Thrilled with his new treasures—especially the green object—WALL·E finally returned home at the end of a long day of work. He had just reached for the lever to open his truck when a dot of red light appeared at his feet. WALL·E stopped. He stared at the dot, then slowly reached down to touch it. The dot raced away along the ground. WALL·E scurried after it. The dot led him into the vast dry bay. WALL·E was so taken by the one red dot that he didn’t notice the many other dots coming at him from all sides. The little laser lights formed a circle around him.
WALL·E heard a low roar in the sky. He looked up and saw what seemed like three hot suns coming in his direction! The roar grew louder and louder. Terrified, WALL·E felt the ground shaking. Columns of fire dropped from above and surrounded him on three sides.
WALL·E furiously started to dig a hole in the ground. He jumped into it just as an intense burst of fire scorched the earth.
As suddenly as the roar had started, things quieted down. WALL·E slowly raised his head and peeked out of his hole. Something very big was looming over him. He climbed out of the hole and banged his head on a metal object.
It was the underside of some sort of spacecraft!
With nowhere to hide, WALL·E made the best of what was available. He placed a small rock on his head, boxed himself up, and hoped he wouldn’t be noticed. WALL·E wasn’t used to visitors, so he wasn’t sure what to expect. But his curiosity quickly began to get the better of him. He wanted to be able to see what was coming even while he remained hidden. Cautiously, WALL·E crept a bit closer to get a better look.
The spacecraft deposited a capsule on the ground. The capsule began to unfold, its exterior peeling away in sections. It was as if something precious were being unwrapped.
Then he saw her emerge—a sleek egg-shaped white probe-bot with gleaming blue eyes. WALL·E was breathless as he watched her hover gracefully above the ground. She was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen.
Her name was EVE.
第 4 章
工作了漫长的一天之后，瓦力终于在日暮时分回家了。他对于他的新宝贝们——特别是那个绿色物品——感到很激动。在他刚伸出手去够拉杆打开货车时，一个圆形的红色光点出现在了他的脚上。瓦力不动了。他盯着红点看，然后慢慢地弯下腰伸手去摸它。红点在地面上快速移开。瓦力匆匆追着它跑。红点引着他进入广阔的干涸海湾。瓦力全神贯注地看着这一个红点，没有注意到许多其他红点从四面八方向他靠近。这些激光小点在他周围形成了一个圈。
瓦力听到空中传来低沉的轰鸣声。他抬头望去，看见像三个火热太阳的东西朝着他的方向扑来！轰鸣声越来越响。瓦力害怕了，他感到地面在晃动。空中落下一道道火柱，从三个方向包围了他。
瓦力开始拼命在地上挖坑。他刚跳进去，一阵烈焰就将地面烧焦了。
轰鸣声出现得很突然，但静止得同样突然。瓦力慢慢地抬起头，从他藏身的坑里探出头来看。一个庞然大物矗立在他的头上。他从坑里爬出来，头撞上了一个金属物体。
这是某种太空飞船的底部！
瓦力无处藏身，只能尽力而为。他头顶着一块小石头，缩成一个盒子的形状，希望自己不会被发现。瓦力不曾有过访客，所以他不知道会发生什么。但他的好奇心很快占了上风。他希望能够在继续隐身的同时看见发生了什么。瓦力小心翼翼地爬得离飞船近了一点以看得更清楚。
这艘太空飞船将一个太空舱放在地面上。太空舱开始打开，它的外壳分成几片向外摊开，就好像珍宝的包装被打开一样。
然后他看见她出现了。她是一个造型优美的白色蛋形探测机器人，有着明亮的蓝色眼睛。瓦力看着她姿态优雅地悬停在空中，不由得屏住了呼吸。她是他所见过的最美丽的事物。
她的名字叫作伊芙。
Chapter 5
The spacecraft began to close up. A low hum filled the air. WALL·E suddenly remembered—he was under a ship! The hum was coming from the ship’s engines, which were now roaring to life. It was time to take cover again. WALL·E dug another hole in the ground and jumped into it.
When the smoke cleared, WALL·E once again raised his head. He looked up and saw EVE. She was circling over the desolate bay. As she swooped and darted like a hummingbird, she emitted a blue ray from her front panel and scanned the terrain. WALL·E scrambled out of the hole and quickly found a boulder to hide behind. He watched EVE continue to scan random objects, occasionally doing a loop in the sky. She zoomed past WALL·E’s rock. Frightened yet enchanted, the rusty and dented WALL·E unit kept watching this sleek new state-of-the-art robot. This was love.
