The Great escape part 1
A few hours after the volcano erupted...
"hello! anyone out there?" Ty asked
Out in the middle of the Desert Ty had managed to survive the collision with the rock but sustained a grave injury, the rock had knocked a part of his tread loose so he had to limp in order to get anywhere.
"don't worry we got ya!"
"almost there!"
Ty pin-pointed his sight to see two Craneosaurs help another one get off the ground and watched as they strode away unaware of his presence.
"where you heading?" he inquired but watched as the group rolled away.
Looking at his broken tread a final time he sighed as he limped off to who knows where.
Nightfall...
Ty was as hungry as any T-Trux would be so after sniffing around he chomped down, and looked to see...no ore... he sniffed the vein next to him and chomped only to see the same results, he kept trying and trying but no dice.
"sigh where's all the ore?" he asked himself.
hours earlier in the Chasm...
Slash was soon beginning to regain consciousness he was dizzy at first but managed to focus his sight, it felt like an hour or two had passed since they had fallen into the...
Slash's eyes flung open upon realizing his friends might be hurt he immediately got up and shook the debris off him.
"IVY!"
"SAVANNAH!"
"NAILS! WHERE ARE YOU!?"
He called out to them hoping to respond but so far nothing, not even a peep.
He was still searching when suddenly a voice rang...
"GUYS! can anyone hear me! GUYS!"
At the time Slash heard the voice he knew the western accent was unmistakable "NAILS IS THAT YOU!?" Slash said rolling to his voice in urgency.
"HEY MAN I'M OVER HERE AS WELL!"
"SLASH WE'RE RIGHT OVER HERE!"
Slash rolled to his friends aid and saw they were literally in-between a rock and a hard place, Ivy was stuck upside down with her blade impaled into the ground, Savannah had her body held down by plenty of rocks, and Nail's hammer head was stuck in a fissure.
"don't worry I'll get you guys up and running again" Slash focused with determination decided to do ivy first since she's easiest, 'I can't grab her and pull her out since she's wedged in but…' Slash thought looking at where her blade was stuck ' I could dig just deep enough that I can tow her out with my grabbers' with that in mind he lowered himself below Ivy's horizontal blade and started carving at the dirt round her vertical blade this gave Ivy a question "what are you doing?" "what's it look like? I'm saving you" she just went deadpan on him while he went to the other side of her and repeated the process, "took you long enough man" she said sarcastically Slash just ignored the comment and attached his grabbers to Ivy's side and reeled her in, and it worked! he managed to tip her on onto her side, he grabbed her again on her side and towed once more along with a energy boost he had finally tipped her right-side up.
"thanks man!" she said full of glee, "we still have two of our friends to free Ivy, so it's too early to celebrate" Slash reminded her "oh right!" she remembered and she tried moving her blades but found out they were stuck.
" Slash, my blades are stuck" she spoke concernedly, Slash also had concern, if Ivy can't user her blades that might mean she's broken something.
[Savannah] " Slash! I'm missing a tread bolt over here!"
[Nails] " my Hammer won't work either!"
His other friends called out, Slash really had a problem on his hands, he needed to get them repaired somehow, so he thought of only one thing.
" guys you stay there! I'm going to get some help!" spoke Slash as he went back the way they came to find anyone who could repair his friends.
His Teammates looked on except for Nails who couldn't see through the rock waiting in hope that Slash will be back with aid.
Meanwhile near mounds of scrap some creatures were coming out of the scrap looking for the right pieces to take.
They are called Scraptools they are the complete opposite of Reptools, instead of fixing things their name suggest they take unfortunate creatures apart.
But these Scraptools were on a scrap run, each one had a different color and personality to differentiate themselves.
The purple one with the slender looking head was named Collect-itt he was the one who collected the most scrap out of the gang and is leader known for having his slicing tool out.
The orange one with a blocky head was Categorize-Itt he was the one who helped put things in their proper place like bolts, joints, plates you name it side note, he's a little bigger than the others, and favors his hammer tail bit.
The next one also had a slender head like collect it but he was Navy Blue plus his name was Analyze-itt he liked to take notes on only one thing, how things work he knows what the part is used for and how it might come in handy.
And finally the last one had a blocky head like Categorize-itt, but was a golden yellow, his name is Jose, he's a little smaller than Categorize-Itt but still as strong and fast he and Categorize-itt always fight on certain subjects and it's Analyze-itt who has to break it all up.
Anyway they had managed to collect all the scarp so Categorize-Itt could do what he does best " o..k let's see what we have here, twelve tread bolts, three nuts and washers, and about twenty-four pieces of metal, half of them being Copper, while the other half is Silver, all in all I say it's a pretty good payload Mate" he congratulated said tool, another thing about him was that he spoke in a deep Australian accent.
" pretty good? This is only thirty-nine pieces!" Jose complained who had a Mexican accent.
" well at least it's better than the three pieces of scrap you collected" Categorize-ITT rebutted.
" there was a stampede! How else was I supposed to acquire it?! By Getting flattened?!" Jose countered.
The two then started to butt heads about who collected more scrap when as usual Analyze-ITT had to settle the fight.
" well at least we managed to collect some scrap today, that's what counts" the Navy blue Scraptool advised his partners in a French accent like the Spy from TF2 ( Team Fortress 2)
That's when Collect-itt came out of the pile to give his two cents " he's right lads, we should be ok by the fact we managed to collect a good amount of scrap for the…" but didn't get to finish as he was interrupted.
" Scraptors!" Jose exclaimed.
And there were indeed Scraptors coming from behind and charging.
So the first thing they did was scream along with getting out of dodge.
Scraptors were coming left and right so they had to keep jumping away from their clamps plus their claws.
" Hello?! Anybody out here? My friends need some help! Hello?!"Slash yelled as he continued down the canyon
From which he and his friends fell down from to find someone who could repair them.
" Scraptors!" A voice yelled from around the corner, Slash went to said corner and saw a quartet of Scraptools being chased by Scraptors as one of them had shouted.
Not wanting to see some Scraptools dismantled and most likely needing them for the repairs, he sped up trying to make there in time.
Collect-itt, Analyze-itt, Categorize-itt, and Jose were sprinting as far as their stubby legs could carry them.
However they were greeted by a devastating sight…
" a dead end" Jose choked out.
" we're trapped!" exclaimed Categorize-itt exclaimed.
And it only got worse when the pack of Scraptors showed up slowly moving in, the Scraptools all huddled together awaiting their tragic fate for when one of the Scraptors lunged in.
But nothing happened…
They looked to the Scraptor who was still moving, however it appeared it couldn't move from it's spot, and in just seconds said scavenger was sent flying through the air.
The culprit was none other than the unique Scraptor Slash looking with a fiery glare at the surrounding pack, he gave a roar of defiance plus charging at them knocking everyone of them into the wall before turning his attention to the Scraptools who shriveled in fright.
As he came closer Slash could hear the orange and yellow one speak with.
" don't hurt us!"
" I'm too young to be scrapped!"
Slash was baffled at the response, but decided to fill them in anyway " look it's ok, names Slash, I came here because it sounded like you were in trouble, and… I need your help" he spoke with sincerity.
The tools were surprised at the turn of events, Analyze-itt stepped in to ask the obvious " help? How could we possibly help you?" he questioned still unsure of what he wants from them.
" my friends are in need of repairs so they need your help to fix them" Slash responded.
[Collect-itt] " you know we'd love to help you lad, but there be one problem…"
[Categorize-itt] " we're Scraptools mate"
[Jose] " we take stuff apart me amigo"
[Analyze-itt] " we're not usually the ones to look for repairs"
Slash hummed in thought at this new information, thinking of a way to convince them he came up with a splendid idea!
" how about taking them apart but in reverse?" Slash asked, all four of them seemed to mentally jump at this now being attentive to what the grey Scraptor had to say.
" after all that's one of the many definitions of fixing, it's simply putting something in instead of getting it out" Slash emphasized.
The Scraptool quartet looked to each other thinking it over before Collect it spoke out for all of them with a proud grin.
" alright lad, ye got yeself a deal"
However Jose butted in " although I do have one question… what's in it for us?"
Luckily Slash already had an answer for that " me and my friends can help keep you safe from harm, along with gathering ore, water, and parts, we'll also help you out on any parts runs you may need to start giving you added protection"
This was enough to have Categorize-itt yell " whoooohooo! We're in mate!" as he jumped on to said Scraptor the rest followed while Slash chuckled.
And they were off, so Slash began to ask for their names.
" Collect-itt"
" G'day mate names Categorize-itt"
" hola me amigo! I'm Jose!"
" Bonjour, names Analyze-itt"
" nice to meet you, names Slash"
While they were collecting the parts needed to make repairs, the Scraptors that were knocked out were slowly beginning to open their eyes.
