Revenge of the Robots by Jameel Scott-Muhammad
Summray:
It was a cold rainy winter’s day in a town that was always raining in a year that was supposed to be the “golden year” (3014) . A young man the age of 18 was sitting down in jail moaning , threatening to make them let him out .
“There’s no point 4 more years”,”besides you’re lucky N.A.S.A wanted a life sentence eat you’re dinner then go too bed . shoouted chief Jack because at that point he was at the end of the long corridor of prisoners shouting .
“Who cares what N.A.S.A wants One day all of humanity will pay I wil make the future my my creations will win I will successes “. shouted Rex as he drew a star surrounded by a circle using only a rock.
Chapter 1 (A new day)
It was 4 years later and the world was the still cold but Rex was out of jail ! Rex ran with hope to his lab he slamed the door shut as he ran into his lab coat and got to work . Rex had been working on robots since he got he got his degree he was so close to making one but steeling N.A.S.A.equipment and cooling the whole world wasn’t the answer .
Jj came fighting with speed at the body bags he’d been using for training in his fighting tournament was coming up and he was amazing Jj was the best there was as he ran up to the body bag Jj’s hair started flying back in the wind his shirt slightly ripped because of his muscles his blue eyes sparkled because his features were the best .
Another cold winters day the clocks were striking fourteen and it was actually hot , and a new age was about to begin the age of robotics !
Rex had done it he had created a thousand robots about to come alive thanks to the storm the storm that could end the world . Rex stood up his long hair covered down by the water leaking from the roof his wrinkled face covered in a evil smile but still he had the power of a thousand men . A storm that could end humanity had come and had powered a thousand metallic blue and red robots that could easily be mistake’d for a human , robots that could tear flesh of anyone the liked robots that were mercy less and savage robots that would kill there own kind if they liked but still they listened to Rex . 3014 had come and gone in a flash so much had happened like the rise of the robots . A cold and rainy day were Rex had finally done it he’d made the robots and on the second they were alive they went on a rampage they turned the town upside down they destroyed buildings and churches they lit houses on fire they killed a single new born baby to show they were here to stay , then came a single thought form the 1st robot “the robotics . In all that time Jj had been at the torment but the robots soon killed each other and picked up on human language veery soon they’re was a king and a queen (no.1 and no.2 .) there was alot of fighting between them andno one was safe .
Jj zipped aroud the corner running as fast as he could all that could be heard was the pitter-patter of his foot as he stepped on the dented concrete that was covered water from the rain , all that could be seen was a tall muscular man in a flash as robots came after him , their red and blue paint job shined in the rain and if someone was to see them all would be seen would be 4 robots marching at full pace very fast . Jj came skidding to a halt as he rounded the corner were a high electric fence that sizzled in the rain stood and just beyond the fence was the worlds biggest castle probably with 600 rooms in it and a dungeon but what took Jj’s attention the most was the big lab and the gigantic spaceship with a metal world that looked cold and already forgotten . Jj’s head tilted back in horror as the steel world loomed over him the loud creaking as if the opening a old wooden door the steel bit’s fell to the breaking building’s .
Jj ran for his life but found himself at a dead end near the old shoe factory . The fallen bit’s of food on the ground went up spirals the plastic bas draped by the muddy water . Jj turned around in horror as he saw a gigantic coach truck on cornering him and very soon the robots jumped out at grabbed him with all there strength , Jj used all of his strength but was soon knocked out the robots had gotten him .

Wow, Jameel!
You’ve written so much into this “First Page” that it contains almost enough information for an entire novel!
I love the times when you’ve slowed down and taken the time to offer imagery like ” there was Jj’s hair flying back in the wind his shirt slightly ripped because of his muscles his blue eyes sparkled”.
What I suggest you do is break what you’ve written up into different stages, and then for each stage, go back and see how you an enhance it by offering more information about the setting before moving forward with the action.
If you select one part to work on, I can make some suggestions about how to build some great noun phrases and complex sentences to enrich it further.
Righto!
