Unexpected circumstances
Chapter 1
„Kkkk, I told you, this is the wrong ore, scrapheads!" Scrap-It was looking into the round. He grabbed the piece of ore in front of him and held it under the nose of Smash-It.
"This one is black, don't you see that? Black! But we have to search, kkkk, for GREY ORE!"
Scrap-It hit the Scraptool with his tail. "Uh, what's the matter, ore is ore." Smash-It glanced confused at Scrap-It.
"Ah, you're hopeless, all of you! Kkkk, I'm gonna make this job by myself! D-strucs and D-stroy are counting on ME and not on, kkkk, YOU."
Skrap-It turned around and walked away from the Scraptools.
"Sooo, what will we do now?" Break-It looked at Smash-It. Then there eyes moved to the black piece of ore. They jumped at once on each other and commenced to fight.
"It's mine, Break-It!"
"No, it's mine, Smash-It!"
"KKKK, this Scrapheads!" Scrap-It was on the way to the forest. "Why is D-Strucs always thinking I can't handle stuff like this by myself? I'm, kkkk, less useless than they believe. I'm gonna find more grey ore than any of the brothers would ever expect, ha!" He stopped for a second and looked around. "I just have to figure out where I can find it and then I'm gonna prove that I'm USEFULL!"
After a while, Scrap-It reached a part of the forest he has never been before. The ground under his feet started to get slippery and the trees were smaller than usual.
"This place is kind of scary." He started to go faster. "And, kkkk, reeaaallllyyy creepy. But I hav a feeling it's somewhere -"
Suddenly, Scrap-It slipped and in the next moment, he was falling down a slope with thousands of polygonal stones.
"-HERE! AHHHH!" He tried to stop his fall, but nothing worked. His head hit the brown rocks several times and as that weren't enough, the slope ended and Scrap-It felt down a cliff.
After hitting the ground, he lifted his head: "Maybe this is not, kkkk, that easy as I thought." And with these words, he lost his awareness.
A few minutes later, Scrap-it woke up again and shook his head. He realised that he was standing in a meadow, overfilled with purple flowers. He took a step forward to get a closer look on the strange plants. The leaves of the flowers had the shape of a heart and there purple color was blotched with red spots.
"Hm, I've never seen such kind of flowers, kkkk. Veeeery interesting. And what's that?" Scrap-it saw something moving on the top of the leaves.
A little blue Bitbug with giant eyes climbed up the flower. He looked at Scrap-it and made a funny sound, quite similar to the sound of the Turtools.
"Uh, you're very cute! I think I should give you a name. I'm gonna call you… Buggy! How you're doing, Buggy?"
Scrap-it tried to touch the small Bitbug, but this was a fault. When he approached Buggy, the blue bug bit him into his right foreleg. Scrap-it yelled out and a stabbing pain went through his leg. He threw the bug away and gave him a wide berth.
"Why Buggy, why? You've been the second friend I've ever had!"
He hobbled out of the meadow and crawled on a tree trunk, which was lying on the brink of a tiny pond. He checked his foreleg and found 2 deep holes, caused by the teeth of the little beast.
Scrap-It moved his leg to make sure that he didn't feel any pain. After he had calmed down, Scrap-it spent 20 minutes climbing up the cliff until he reached its top breathlessly. He was so irritated by the two holes and flinched immediately if he touched them unintentionally. "Well, at least I can show this to D-Strucs as a proof, kkkk, that a BUG bit me."
The whole thing had stressed Scrap-It so hard that he decided to go home. He could search for grey ore another day.
"Dudes, dudes, dudes!" Ton-ton drove nervously through the entrance of the hidden base.
"Ton-ton, what is it now?" Dozer wasn't really happy about the arrival of his friend. "I told you, it doesn't exist a rock with eyes and legs! Rocks aren't even ALIVE!"
Dozer glanced at Ton-ton. "No, it's worse than the creepy rock which followed me yesterday ALL DAY LONG!" Ton-ton took a deep breath. "Dudes, it's so bad!"
"What's so bad?" Now it was Ty with Revit who rolled into the hidden base. "Why are you so hysterical? Did you have a confrontation with the D-brothers?"
Ty looked curiously at Ton-ton.
"No, not the D-brothers. Something very crazy happened…" He started to drive circles. "I had been on a supply-run when suddenly a Scraptor commenced attacking me. But this one has been different! His eyes, dudes! They weren't blue as always, they were green! And a long, metallic thing has been located on its head! Look!" Ton-ton turned his back to the trux. It was laced with many little notches. "When I had started to drive away in fear, this thing attacked me from behind!"
"Hmm." Revit jumped down from Tys head to get a closer look. His bits started to spin.
Then he drew something into the ground and asked Ton-ton: "Has it been smaller than a regular Scraptor?" Ton-ton nodded intensely. "Yes! Smaller, but meaner." He looked around like a little, scared babytrux. Revit finished his drawing and showed it to Ton-ton. "Does it look like that?"
Ton-ton startled. "Exactly! Dude, this thing is FREAKING ME OUT!"
"What you saw, Ton-ton, has been an Awloraptor."
"A what?" Dozer looked confused at Revit. "An Awloraptor. Quit similar to a Scraptor, but smaller and more lissom. He's known for his strong ankle joint and his long spike on its head."
Ty reflected during staring at the drawing. "Do you think this… uh, what's the name of this thing again?"
"Awloraptor." Revit said it like he knew that he would have to repeat that.
"Right! Do you think this Awloraptor is a threat for us?" Revit thought for a moment. "As long as they keep distance from our base, the Awloraptors provoke no problems. But they can get very dangerous if they feel disturbed. You see what one Awloraptor did with Ton-tons back. Lets keep our eyes open and hope that this one doesn't bring his whole pack to us."
First I want to say: I'm so, so sorry for possible mistakes I could have done, guys. My first language isn't English and I'm struggling with the tenses and I often use wrong words. I do my best and I hope you could enjoy the first chapter in spite of the mistakes ;)
