Disclaimer: I do not own Ratchet and Clank or any part of the franchise. If I did, there would be much more profanity and WAYMore crotch kicking. Warning: this takes place after the THIRD game not the forth!

The New Breed
Chapter 1: Boredom"Prepare to die, Qwark!"
Dr. Nefarious dashed towards Captain Qwark, claws slashing.
Qwark jumped over the charging Nefarious and planted a foot on his back.
"Not a chance, Nefarious!"
Nefarious stumbled and then began to rub his temples.
"What's the problem, freak? You consti-Aghhhhh!"
Qwark tried to roll out of the way from the three speeding holograms but one grazed his shoulder.
As Qwark came out of the roll, he pulled out a blaster and fired 3 shots.
When Nefarious came out of his trance, he saw the shots coming and deflected the first 2 shots but took the third in the chest.
Qwark then walked over to the fallen villian .
"Get up, you wimp!"
In the blink of an eye, Nefarious turned over holding dual blasters and while smiling, unleashed a flurry of blasts.
Qwark was then knocked back 6 feet and Nefarious walked over to the stunned superhero.
"Any last words?"
"No words. Just this."
And with that, he kicked the space between Nefarious' legs.
"AH! Ohhh! The pain!"
Qwark walked slowly over to the evil genius.
"See! You should never underestimate the genius of Captian Qw-"
Qwark's taunt was cut short by Nefarious' hand going straight through Qwarks chest.
"Idiot, robots don't have crotches!"
Nefarious began to laugh maniacally.
Game Over"Oh come on! I am not that weak!"
Qwark was screaming at the holovid screen with Ratchet and Clank sitting on the couch next to him.
"Qwark, this is your 26th time. Turn the game off already!"
They were onboard the Starship Phoenix 4 months after Nefarious' defeat, bored as ever.
"But Ratchet, I know if I try one more time-"
"You said that 25 times! Give up!"
"What else do we have to do?"
This caused all 3 heroes to think. This has been going on for months.
"Maybe the galaxy doesn't need heroes anymore."
At that moment, alarms started buzzing and every Galactic Ranger ran towards the bridge.
Qwark pulled aside a moving ranger.
"What's going on?"
"The capital on Marcadia is under attack"
"Tyrannoids?"
"No, Thugs-4-Less"
When Ratchet,Clank, and Qwark entered the bridge, Sasha was ordering rangers to their battlestations.
"What's going on? Why is Thugs-4-Less here? Why are they attacking Marcadia?"
"We don't know but we have to save my father!"
All right, Ratchet, you will go to the front lines-"
Qwark interupted with a mocking laugh.
"accompanied by Captain Qwark."
It was Ratchet's turn to mock while Qwark sulked."
"Both of you need to equip all of your weaponary immediately"
While walking back, Ratchet tried to cheer up Qwark.
"Cheer up Qwark, I mean what is the worst that could happen
A holovid screen came on in a darkened room.
"Agent Y?"
"Yes?"
The cold voice came from a serious-faced Blarg.
"He is headed towards Marcadia as we speak."
"I know."
The shaded figure stopped in mid-sentence as he watched the Blarg load a Vaporizer.
"But how?"
"I always know."
"Okay."
"You don't get to become the best without having certain skills."
He placed the loaded Vaporizer inside his Quickselect and pulled out a candy bar.
"Just make sure you make it look like a war casuality."
The screen blinked out and Agent Y sat in the darkness.
This was going to fun and a devious smile came across his face.
Finally it was time.
The monstrous creature spread its bat-like wings.
After waiting so long, he would get to accomplish his purpose.
A mutant crab shrieked angrily.
The beast let out a low growl that sent the crab scrurrying.
It looked towards the sky.
Ratchet
I'm coming for you.
What is this monster? Who is Agent Y? Will Ghandi rise again?
