A Crossover Fanfiction

Time for the first chapter! Damn I'm excited! Enjoy the chapter guys! xD

Also chapter 2 is going to take a little while, as I had to delete most of it due to pure cringe. But I promise it will be longer than this one! xD

Chapter 1: Interrogation

Location: Apogee Space Station

YAY! FREAKING DARKNESS EVERYWHERE! THIS IS MY FAVORITE THING SO FAR! Ok.. calm down, it isn't that bad, it's just annoying as hell. Well… not as annoying as getting electrocuted by an immense amount of electricity. Thanks Ratchet!

Don't get me wrong, it's actually rather relaxing, but I don't wanna stay here. Can't someone just hit me over the head or something?

"Ratchet? Clank? Talwyn? Anyone?!" I called out, even though I knew it wouldn't help. I sighed and just stared into the vast deep that was the darkness.

Suddenly cold water hit my face, and I woke up. I was so shocked, that I struggled just trying sit to sit straight. Also I was a little confused.

I blinked with my eyes a few times, just so I could get a normal vision. "Wha… where am I? How did I get here?" I asked, as I looked at the others with a curious look. Though I quickly looked away and lowered my head, like if they had punished me from stealing cookies from the cookie jar.

The Markazian, the Lombax, the robot and the two warbots were looking at me. Deadly serious!

"Wh-what's up guys?" I asked, but Ratchet was for some reason mad at me and placed his wrench at my throat, ready to snap it whenever he wanted to. "Whoa Ratchet... Please don't do it.. I-I can explain why I'm here! Just remove your wrench"

Ratchet hesitated, but in the end did as I said, and listened to my explanation.

"Ok I actually lied, I don't know why I'm here, but this Glitch guy just sucked me in here. Into this… game I think. Though this feels too real to be a game."

"Game? What are you talking about?!" Ratchet asked, angrily.

"Oh yeah that's right, you don't know that you're actually fictional characters inside a game in my world. You and Clank, you are the galaxy's greatest heroes! You defeated Chairman Drek, The Protopet, Gleeman Vox, Percival Tachyon, Dr. Nefarious, Angstrom Darkwater, saved the Great Clock and stopped Artemis Zogg's Project Helios. I know all about your adventures."

Ratchet looked.. rather surprised actually.

Not only him. Somehow they were all surprised, but Ratchet had still more questions, "What's your name?" He asked.

"Erh.. My name is, Vyse, just Vyse." I said "And I do know all of your names, so there's no need for introductions."

"Well welcome to the Apogee Space Station. Say do you know this place?" Ratchet asked. I chuckled and said: "Yeah it's located in the Nundac Asteroid Ring in the Polaris Galaxy." I looked at them all smiling.

Clank though looked rather puzzled, as there was something that he didn't quite understand. "Do you perhaps happen to know what was wrong with the cragmite we fought against back on Igliak?" He asked.

I didn't think about that until now. I mean, I know it was glitched, but it didn't move an inch. It didn't attack us, nor did it try to pull off an attack. What did Glitch actually do to it?

I looked at Clank as I answered his question: "You know I didn't give it that much thought, but now that you mention it, it was actually acting at little weird. I mean it was totally immobilized. It didn't even move an inch."

I looked at the others as I finished my little explanation about the cragmite: "Cragmites, as far as I know, are rather vicious and extremely deadly. They were a threat to the galaxy long ago, remember? But this cragmite was different, like, it wasn't even alive."

I rubbed my chin as I added a little information about Glitch: "This guy I told you about, Glitch, was the one who conjured it up, hence the state the cragmite was in, is called 'glitched'. Anyway, as far as I know Glitch is a hostile fellow, and for some reason he doesn't like me. As I told you, he brought me here, but why? I don't know. When he kidnapped he said that he'd been looking for me. And again, the question is: Why?"

I leant back in the couch I was sitting in, sighed and explained the last bit: "Now you're probably wondering about the state I told you about. Well "glitched", as far as I know, is a state, in which it breaks the victim's body, and either enhances it or slowly destroys it from the inside, which will cause the victim to malfunction in some way. That was probably what Glitch did when he summoned that cragmite."

Ratchet rubbed his thumbs against his temples in order to understand my rather complicated explanation. Clank then decided to ask: "But what is a 'glitch'?"

I chuckled and told Clank: "Well In this case, I think you could classify it as a 'game glitch'. In video games, glitches occur from time to time. You can either trigger one, or the developers could've overseen it when they tested the game. A glitch can be game breaking to the point where you can't even play the game. And just like I told you before, it can also overpower or totally wreck it's victim."

They all nodded to show that they understood all of what I just explained.

Ratchet asked one last question, in order to switch topic. "Hey I just remembered. You said you weren't from around here. Does that mean you don't have any place to stay?" I looked at him as i answered his question with a question of my own: "Oh yeah that's actually right. Now that I think about it, I wanted to ask you, if I could stay with you guys until I find a way home. I know it's a bit rushed, because we've just met, but It doesn't hurt to ask right?"

Ratchet seemed to hesitate a little bit, but then thought, "what the hell" and said, "Of course. I can't see why not. You can maybe even help us out while you're here. You know, just as a temporary member of the group. I say yes to that. What about you guys?"

I was surprised to hear Ratchet's offer and looked at the others to see if they would accept this. The others instantly nodded in agreement and then it was settled. I was now a temporary member of their group. On the inside, I was HYPE! Though on the outside, I was cool as ice.

After that, all except Talwyn and I, went their separate ways.

She got up from the couch in front of me, which she had been sitting in this whole time, and said: "Come with me. I'll show you your room." I nodded, got up and followed the Markazian female up the stairs. We stopped in front of the first closed door.

She opened said door and I went inside to check it out. There was a huge bed in the middle of the room, and a large window with a gorgeous view of the nundac asteroid belt.

I whistled, laughed and said: "This room is so nice!"

I ran to the window and pressed my face up against the glass, just so I could admire the view. "Oh my god! It's so BEAUTIFUL!" I exclaimed, which caused Talwyn to laugh. "Well I'm glad you like it. It once belonged to my parents, so it means a lot to me." She said.

I nodded and said: "That explains the giant bed. Seriously it's way too big for only one person." She smiled when she heard those words, but yawned afterwards. "Oh god I'm tired. Well I'll head to bed now. Goodnight. Haha see you in the morning Vyse", She said as she left the room, and went towards her own room.

Shortly after Talwyn left, I changed my clothes into a t-shirt and a pair of sweatpants, and went to bed.

I thought I would be too excited to fall asleep. LOL nope, I fell asleep right as my head rested on the pillow.

"This is gonna be hella fun!" I thought to myself as i dozed off.
