Act Three

Searching

"Why am I always searching for something?" I wondered as I moved down the silent hallway. The familiar weight of my gun in my hand. I grip it tight as my large ears raise up, listening carefully for any sighs of danger. The familiar weight of my armor on my body was there. The only sound I could hear was the tap of my boots on the floor. I came to the open doorway at the end of the hall and peered inside.

The room was devoid of life, only machinery lay inside. I slowly crept inside the room and made my way passed all the computer consoles and whirling gears. I came to the main terminal, my heart beating rapidly. I activated the consol, the screen came to life.

I quickly started rummaging through the many files and useless reports on the hard drive. I was looking for something specific. One file, one small piece of information that would help me. Help me search more.

I stop as tears well up in my eyes. Always searching…that's all I ever do. I search for the bad guys. Search for the right weapon. Search for the secrets of my past. Yet now I'm searching for him. I just want him back. I want the familiar weight on my back again. I want to find him and go back home with him. I just want Clank back.

The tears spilled down my cheeks. I am always searching. Now, I'm searching for my best friend…no, I'm searching for the love of my life. It wasn't until he left, until they took him, that I realized it. I realized it too late.

I looked up, tear filled eyes scanning the screen and there it was. That tiny file I needed. I popped out the disk from my pocket and put it in. I copied the file and dragged it onto the disk.

I waited for the little blue bar to fill up and quickly ejected the disk. I put the disk away and sighed. I wiped my eyes and grabbed my gun again. This will be my last search, I swear it. I am going to find Clank and I'm done searching. I'm done with it all.

I turn around and made my way back to the door. I peered out the door and started down the hallway, gun in hand again. "I will find you Clank. I promise."
