OK this is my first story, and I write better when I use my own ideas, but let me just try this.

Disclaimer: I don't own any part of Ratchet And Clank, or of any game of this series.

Chapter 1: Boring Lives And Preparation

Ratchet And Clank are sitting in their big house on Veldin, which they got from all the money they got for saving the galaxy. They had pinball machines, swimming pools, hottubs, pool tables, and hot chicks if they needed them, but this did not appease them. They were used to all of this stuff, so they were really bored. To add insult to injury, it was raining, which seemed to cap off the mood perfectly.

Ratchet: What happened to our exciting lives of adventure?

Clank: The galaxies are safe since they know they'll be blown up by us if they try to do anything.

Ratchet: That is true...(looks over at his weapon stash with pride.)

Ratchet: I've got it! Let's go on a camping trip!

Clank: Why?

Ratchet: We need to get away from all this high tech stuff. the gadgets, the weapons, the TVs, even the chicks.

Clanks: (sighs) I guess you're right. But how will we know what to bring?

Ratchet: I heard one of the best camping websites ever at the mall. It's hosted by Captain Quark!

Ratchet and Clank go to their ultra high-tech computer that takes approximately one nano-second to load. They type in the address, and are immediately taken to an introducton given by Captain Quark himself.

Captain Quark: So cadets! You've decided to go on a camping trip? Well, even I need to get away from my money, fame, and babes sometimes!

Ratchet: Please...

Captain Quark: On this site you can get complete lists of what you need, how to survive, and what to do when staring death on the face. (intro ends, and goes to a page with links to certain categories)

Ratchet clicks on supplies list.

It goes to a page which asks you if you want to go on an advanced or non-advanced camping trip. Ratchet clicks non-advanced.

The list says firewood, matches, lighter fluid, hot dogs, rifle, ammo, tent, blankets, pillows, marshmallows, graham crackers, sticks, hershey bars, and picture of Captain Quark.

Raatchet: Geez, Quark is trying to advertise himself. And why do we need that rifle?

Clank: I would assume for any animals that give us trouble. And what about the marshmallows, graham crackers, hershey bars, and sticks?

Ratchet: The food is for making smores, and the sticks are for putting it over the fire so you won't burn your hand. Your hand would probably melt.

Clank: No, I am made of solid titanium.

Ratchet And Clank get everything together in a backpack, but little does Clank know that Ratchet has snuck a few gadgets in the pack...

Clank: Well, we're ready. Let's go!

The two take their spaceship to the other side of Veldin, where the forests are abundant.

What kind of gadgets did Ratchet sneak in his backpack? Will there be room at the campsite? What will happen to these two? Find out next time in Chapter two: Campground Troubles!
