EPISODE 1 - A NEW BAD GUY?

(o) - X-naut fortress - Paper Mario the thousand-year door

The story begins on a dark and dreary planet, Ratchet and clank were fighting there way through what seemed like a hi-tech facility. "Ugh, what are these things?!" Ratchet said blasting strange predator-like aliens that were swarming him and clank, Qwark was kiddy slapping them unsuccessfully. "They seem to be bio-engineered lifeforms, but i detect traces of something else, analyzing right away" Clank said. "Analyze later!" Ratchet said bringing out the blitz gun and blasting the aliens backwards. "Get them off me!" Qwark screamed as the aliens dogpiled him. "Geez!, get a grip 'captain' " Ratchet blasted the aliens off qwar. "Well, i could have taken you know, if i...was... see ya!" Qwark ran screaming out as more and more aliens broke into the room from vents and the floor.

"Ratchet, we must run through, there is no other way" Clank said pointing to the large steel door."Got ya pal" Ratchet grabbed Clank and the two charged through the aliens and into the door, they darted down the hall with aliens not far behind, Ratchet fired several gravity bombs behind but the aliens simply kept coming. "Just a little more!" Ratchet said confidently, finally he and Clank jumped through the closing vault door.

What was behind the door was nothing like the facility they traveled through, it was like the inside of a temple, ornate markings covered the wall along with many chests vases and candles, none lit, the dark room lit only by a beam of light piercing the multi-colored stained glass ceiling. "Whoaaaa... this is huge!" Ratchet said looking up toward the large ceiling, the roof had a design that appeared to be a tall white felinesque figure with wings and piercing red eyes. "Ratchet, i detect unusual energy readings, i suggest we hurry up and neutralize the target" Clank reminded Ratchet, Ratchet broke out of his trance. "I guess so, let's do it then." the pair enter the bigger stone door, what greeted them was a huge spiralling tower that led down into the deep darkness. "Oh boy... " Ratchet said sarcastically.

"This structure is completely illogical, whatever apparatus that supports this must be paranormal in nature" Clank said analyzing the area, the two were only illuminated by Ratchets flickering light. "How did we get ourselves into this again?" Ratchet asked lazily. "The letter remember?" Clank reminded Ratchet. "And here we are in pitch blackness in some old museum" Ratchet said yawning. "I believe this may be some primitive place of worship used by a prehistoric race that inhabited this planet many many years ago" Clank explained. "What was your first clue?" Ratchet said laughing. "The mural depicts a creature not recorded in my database, i must study more" Clank said excitedly, Ratchet just shrugged and the two continued on.

Eventually the two stumbled upon the bottom, another incredibly long hallway stood before them, both sighed in disbelief. "Is this ever gonna end buddy?" Ratchet moaned."I should hope so, this structure is highly illogical" Clank said looking up at the spiral staircase. "Lets continue on i guess" Ratchet shrugged and the pair continued on there way. soon large gem encrusted doors stood before them, sapphires rubies emerald topaz garnet opal and mny more kinds of gems decorated the aged door, yet little wear can be seen on the door, despite its obvious age. "Awesome!, if we take these gems we can be rich!" Ratchet said rubbing his hands and smiling. "I believe they are not possible to remove, besides, we are heroes, heroes do not think of such greedy thoughts" Clank said scolding Ratchet who groaned and the pair cracked open the doors.

The next room was unbelievable, gold walls and ceiling with red velvet carpet, treasure hoards stood at the far corners along with a long staircase that seems to reach the ceiling, a doorway at the top however can be seen."He didn't touch any of this gold?!, then what's he after?" Ratchet said amazed. "I believe he may be after what technology this civilization may have possessed, we should hurry and stop him from harming this structure" Clank said running up the steps. "Wait up buddy!" Ratchet followed Clank up the jewel coated golden steps.

As they entered the doorway what greeted them astonished them, a large glass globe covered in what appeared to be diamonds and rubies, but standing before it was a tall man with dark grey skin, eyes glowing a fierce red with a look of evil that could kill a puppy. "Cartox!" Clank said angrily.

"So you vermin made it past the predaguards i see, well, your far too late for i have what i came for" The almost felinesque villain said, displaying a black orb with pink flowing lines as if it was mixed into it, the orb radiated a power that the two heroes could feel despite the distance. "What that?!, what could it possibly do?, surrender now carrotox, your outnumbered!" Ratchet said priming his N60 storm. "Numbers do not matter when you have this much power, you insolant insects don't realize the depth of the graves you have dug for yourselves" Cartox held the up above his head. "I was hoping you'd fight back!, time for some action Clank!" Clank readied himself on Ratchets back. "Then i shall give you the gift of eternal slumber" Cartox said gravely pulling out a large energy scythe.

Ratchet fired the N60 storms but Cartox simply side-stepped and fire a shot of mysterious black and green energy, which Ratchet blocked with the holoshield gloves. "How do ya like that?" Ratchet said arrogantly. "Your pitiful gadgets do not worry the least, i think i must cut our little game short, time for the orbs true power!" Cartox held the orb up high, purple energy swarmed around the room as objects disintegrated and were absorbed by the orb, Clank suddenly lost grip and sailed toward the orb. "CLANK!" Ratchet jumped after him and everything went black.
