Jigger's New Car

Jigger’s New Car

By Paul McCann

Jigger Jordan was on his way to collect his new Futura Proton from Generation Ahead Motors . It was the first of its kind with a lot of devices and accessories .\It had an automatic self-drive system built as well as a manual drive system . It had features never used before . Built in back massage therapy on all the car seats , meditative incense fumes and relaxation music , flight and amphibious ability , internal warning systems linked to police , ambulance . coastguard and to global airport communication networks . It was installed with an on board artificial intelligence network that could assist the driver and the engine with any problem .

The self-driven protonic machine had also been installed with a life support system that included a built in first aid package complete with . defib , and medical supplies to assist with most medical emergencies but apart from that the Futura Proton machine was the first car to use a sustainable energy supply known as electroicis .

Previously this energy had successfully been used in space travel , deep sea and on aircraft drones .

Generation Ahead Motors were the first car manufacturer to have built a car engine to use their new Protonic fusion vehicles for public use and Jigger Jordan was the very first customer to receive one of these new machines that used protonic magnetised particles accelerated through semitratic polarised chambers fused into a self-conducting storage units that propelled the computerised command of intermittent signals that commenced programmed firing sequences creating a set of  combustion chambers driving pistons in and out through cylinders that were part of a system known as sustainable electroicis , that made this an energy supply that had s previously been used in space travel as well as with deep sea and  aircraft drones . So far, this energy had not been used in cars so Generation Ahead Motors were eager to see how their new Protonic fusion machine would be accepted by the public .  

Jigger was the first human to buy  a car propelled by electrocis energy . The first prototype had been successfully tested over short distances by human drivers.

The results were positive and painless . Torque and power were unequalled and comfort unmatched . Being in a car that could drive you anywhere you wanted for any distance without stopping to refuel was unheard of however the new Futura Proton had it all .

Jigger was handed the keys and he got in started with the keyless option to start the engine that sparked into life with a sound of a silent spark that soon rose to a whirring whoosh that exploded into a thunderous thump followed by a harmonious hum of well-tuned idling . Opting for the self-drive he took the steering wheel into his hands and selected drive and pressed his foot gently on the foot pedal .All the sales  team waved goodbye as he drove off in his new car . 

A few moments later Jigger felt a tingling in his fingers . Some lights flashed  inside the car  and  a voice through the stereo  system said , 

“ Why are you feeling sad ?”

Jigger was startled and pulled over to the side of the road .

“ Hello , who have I ?” 

He replied and the voice replied. 

“I’m your car . So why are you feeling sad ?“

 “ I wasn’t informed that my car could talk . “

“I have abilities even my creators don’t know about “

Jigger asked .

“So how can you tell I’m feeling sad ?”

“ Your fingers told me and soon as your took the wheel . I have certain sensors that are linked to the artificial intelligence system that enables me to detect emotions and feelings . So why are you sad ?”

Jigger replied .

“ A year ago, on this day I lost someone who I loved and I can’t help feeling sad . I thought if I bought myself a new car it might help but the sadness is still there”.

So, the voice through the car speakers  said ,

“ Do yourself a favour. Relax , chill out and let me do the driving .“

“How can this be happening ?”

Suddenly the driver’s seat tilted  back and an aroma of incense was  released through the air conditioning system . Soft ambient music began to play . Then a voice with a hypnotic tone spoke .

“Your mind is a sponge and it needs to absorb peaceful energies “

Jigger felt a release deep within and gave three deep sighs and said ,

“That feels beautiful “

The car said ,

“Select the auto pilot button “

Jigger giggled and did as he was told and the car drove away down the road and entered the freeway and was soon travelling at high speed , a click was heard followed by a whirling sound almost like a jet engine and suddenly the car took flight . As it rose into the sky Jigger felt his ears pop with the pressure . The car was soon flying over the ocean and suddenly it stared to descend “

Jigger asked 

“ What are you doing ?”

The car said , 

“You know I am equipped with the ability to fly and also to be an ambitious vehicle . So, this ride is my treat for you to help remove the sadness you feel. “

 

In seconds the car submerged under the water . The interior of the car began to pump  oxygen inside and the sound of a propeller was humming from the rear of the vehicle .

Creatures of the ocean went swimming by . The ocean was full of wonderful sights .

Jigger started laughing and said. 

“This is mad. “

The car asked .

“Are you still feeling sad ?”

Jigger replied 

“This is the best feeling I’ve ever had “

The car was changing sounds and shape , as it sped through the water . 

When it surfaced the car 

 made its way across the ocean until  it  came to a rest out there on the water . Suddenly the car submerged under the water . The interior of the car began to pump  oxygen inside as  the sound of a propeller was humming away from the rear of the vehicle .

Creatures of the ocean went swimming by . The ocean was full of wonderful sights . Then after a tour of the underwater world  the car resurfaced and made its way. 

back unto the land again saying ,

“ Are you still feeling sad ?

Jigger replied with laughter between his words. 

“Are you kidding , no not anymore .“

“ Awesome . Would you like to take the wheel for a while .“

Said the car as it drove along the road .

“Ok , I think I’d like that .

“Select self-drive then and let’s go  . I’m in your hands “

Jigger did as he was asked and drove along the road . 

“By the way , where do you live “

The car asked “

Jigger said his address and the navigation system immediately brought up a map on the screen on the dashboard showing the fastest route to get him home .
