It wasn’t going to be easy to come up with a project that could win first prize. But three heads would be better than one. Especially if one of them was a super-smart robot head.

The Silverspoon twins had to be stopped!

6.

Top Secret

“You’re not going to believe what the Silverspoon twins did to me!” I called out as I ran into Mom’s lab after school.

Mom flipped up her goggles and turned off her fiery torch.

“What did they do now, honey?” she asked.

“They tricked Java into helping them with their science fair project!” I answered. “It’s just like them to do something like that.”

“How did they trick him?” Mom wondered.

“They asked him,” I replied. “And he didn’t know he was supposed to say no.”

“Why should he say no?” Mom asked.

“Because he’s my android,” I whined.

“He may be part of our family,” Mom agreed, “but he’s programmed to be his own person. He needs to act like a real kid.”

“Real kids are not friends with the Silverspoons,” I grumbled.

Mom looked around. “Where is Java now?”

“In the living room with them.” I couldn’t believe Mom wasn’t taking my side. “Stanley’s in the house, too, waiting for me.”

“Then don’t you think you should go in the house?” Mom asked.

She was right. It wasn’t fair to leave my best friend alone with those twins.

Of course, if it wasn’t for her robot, the Silverspoons wouldn’t even be in our house. And they wouldn’t have a super-smart robot helping them with their project.

But I wasn’t going to let any of that stop me. In fact, I was going to make it impossible for the Silverspoons and Java to win first prize.

I grabbed all the copper wires, a hammer, and a whole box of nails from Mom’s toolbox. That was more than Stanley and I would need for our project, but I wanted to make sure the Silverspoons couldn’t get their hands on my mom’s supplies.
