Sasha continued to drive home with Ratchet still sitting in the passenger seat with his head between his hands. Sasha tries to engage in conversation with Ratchet again but was ignored by the hurt lombax.

(Fifteen minutes later back at Sasha's home)

Ratchet had collected his things from the car and Sasha showed him where the spare room was where he could stay. "Ratchet I will have to go and pick up Max soon from school, Kevin my husband…won't be home for a few hours I know it is rude to ask but could you take care of Ashley for me until I get back with Max? Sorry to ask of you Ra…. She was cut off. "I'll take good care of her for you go get Max." He said with a quiet voice. Sasha thanked him and left to pick Max up leaving Ratchet with Ashley.

Ashley was sleeping and had been fed before Sasha left so Ratchet did not need to do much so he decided to move his things into the spare room and take a nap, he woke up what he thought was a few minutes later but he had been asleep for a good three hours he quickly went to check on Ashley but he stopped once he saw Sasha in her room feeding her. Ratchet's heart stopped, seeing Sasha with a baby the love she had for her child killed Ratchet knowing he had been replaced and had no place with Sasha or her family anymore. Ratchet had a lump in his throat as he turned away solemnly walking back to the spare room, sitting on the bed he lets the emotion break him into a series of sad whimpered sobs.

"Sash I'm home." Kevin called out as he walked in the door putting his shoes by the door. "I'm up here hun." Sasha replied quickly to her husband. Kevin walked up stares into Ashley's room to greet her and his wife, giving Ashley a kiss on the forehead and Sasha a warm hug plus a peck on the lips he asked her how it went with Ratchet today not knowing Ratchet could hear everything from down the hall way.

"Kevin, I offered him to stay here with us as long as he needs to get back on his feet."

"Oh… well that ruins tonight then, it's fine we'll just stay in and take care of three kids then." Kevin was annoyed with Sasha's decision to bring Ratchet into her life again after a year of marriage.

"Kevin, how could you he is my ex-husband only due to the fact he was abandoned on a deserted planet so don't go and judge him as a child when he survived on his own for five years. It is too easy to make a judgment when you haven't been in his situation you show him the respect he deserves." Sasha was firm when addressing her husband's disrespectful comments.

"Do you still love him Sasha be honest with me." Kevin's voice was firm but compassionate.

"Please don't look at me like that you know how I feel, I shouldn't have to explain myself to you Kevin." Sasha was now getting frustrated with Kevin's questioning of her choices about Ratchet.

"That's not an answer Sasha…stop avoiding my question; I will ask again do you still love him." Kevin's upper lip twitched with frustration.

"No I don't love him anymore, alright there I said it." Sasha said in distaste. "Thank you maybe answer the first time I ask something of you next time." Kevin spoke down to her with distrust.

Sasha put Ashley to bed and walked down stairs to prepare dinner, Kevin walked into the kitchen hugging her from behind and whispering in her ear "Let's go out for a little while I already dropped Max of at his friend's house for the night." "So what about Ratchet?" Sasha felt guilty about spending some private time with Kevin with Ratchet in the house. "We can be quiet…. Come on we both know you need a stress release baby."

(Meanwhile in the spare room)

Ratchet had heard everything from the two now downstairs, his breathing shortened as he began think of all his past memories of her. Ratchet stood up grabbed his things together and waited for Kevin and Sasha to go into their room before he would leave knowing he had no part of this family Ratchet made his move swiftly leaving his old Marcadian home for good. Ratchet knew Clank would be busy with the media for some time and would likely be in a comeback Secret Agent Clank film project soon enough so Ratchet decided to take a cab to a ship yard so he could purchase a new star fighter. After accessing his account and purchasing a new matte red star fighter equipped with the latest navigation units, on board computing systems and latest defensive weapons he fueled up and headed for home….Veldin.

(Veldin 12:30am local time)

Ratchet landed his ship just outside his old home which had seen better days, a group of jumping toads had reclaimed his home as their own, Ratchet quickly cleared them and went on an old memory tour of his distraught home. Memories flooded back the lombax of when he first met Clank and defeated Chairman Drek to when he used to bring Sasha here to get away from it all. Tears welled up in his eyes his breath became shallow and full of uneasiness, Ratchet fell onto his old battered bed falling asleep.

The next morning he woke up and decided it best to clean and repair his home as best he could with what he could salvage and with his Omni-Wrench. After a few hours of cleaning up his house it started to look like its old self again. He leaves to go get food supplies and a new wardrobe of cloths as well as some new combat armor, after all his purchases he returns home to find another ship has landed, Ratchet lands his ship nearby and walks inside wondering who had shown up….
