Well, here we are with chapter 7. I really don't have much to express in this one that I didn't already express in my Typecast. The only other thing is that I actually don't have school next Tuesday. So good news for me. Now, onto the reviews.

Max Chronicle- Hey, don't worry about it. As long as you reviewed for this, everything is alright. And yeah, a bullet to the heart (or should I say fireball) is painful. And I think you made a typo when you said "the five" because I think you mean four. But yeah, lets hope the hero does get back onto his feat and defeat Nefarious. And thank you for your support, it is very much appreciated.

Now, onto the story.

If you're enjoying the story so far, feel free to review, favorite or follow, and please know that any feedback is much appreciated.

As the group flew to Allero City to warn the Galactic Rangers, Jordan told Sophia about their little adventure on planet Aridia. He talked about killing Sandsharks, saving famous celebrities, but the most important thing of all, he talked about his little injury he suffered from a Sandshark bite. Jordan then lifted his leg up and showed Sophia the scar. "Did it hurt?" she asked.

"Yeah it hurt. It hurt alot." Jordan said.

"So what happened next?"

"Well I pretty much told you everything. But Skidd did give me these two things." Jordan then pulled out the strange gem and card out of his pocket and showed them to Sophia. But this also caught Ratchets attention and Ratchet immediately knew what they were. "Whoa, is that Raritanium?"

"I don't know. Do you know anything about it?"

"The only thing I know about them is that they can be used to upgrade your weapons. You should keep that and save it until we get to another Gadgetron."

"Okay. What about the card?"

"Let me see it." Jordan handed Ratchet the card and Jordan saw the surprise in the Lombaxes eyes. "Oh my god."

"What? What is it?"

"This is a Skidd McMarx series 5 set 3 holocard. And it's even autographed. I've heard of this card. I've tried looking for this card since I was a kid, but I could never get it."

"So you're saying it's rare?"

"That's exactly what I'm saying. It's one of the rarest cards in the series. Ooooh it's even holographic."

"Well you can have it if you want. I seem to have no use for it."

"No. I want you to have it. It could be worth something someday."

"No. I told you, I have no use for it, so take it."

"Jordan, you've done enough for me. So you have it."

"What do you mean done enough?"

"You gave me the hoverboard, you helped me save a famous celebrity. And now you're helping me tell the Galactic Rangers about an attack that may be the end of us all. Not alot of people do that kind of stuff for me."

"What do you mean gave you a hoverboard?"

"I was gonna speak up and let you have the hoverboard, knowing how bad I felt when you got hurt. But you spoke up first and let me have it. So I thank you for letting me have it."

"Ratchet. I don't know how to ride a hoverboard. That's why I let you have it."

"Well when this is all over, I'll teach you."

"Thanks, but no thanks. I would rather find my way home."

"And I'll do that for you. But right now I want you to keep that holocard. Like I said, it could be worth something someday."

"If you really insist that much. Okay, I'll keep it." Jordan placed the card in his right jacket pocket, but what he saw through the windshield of the ship was a large planet that looked just like earth, except with more land covering the entire planet. "Arriving at...Planet...Kerwan." a female voice said through the dashboard.

Allero City

Planet Kerwan

1:30pm local time

Battle Of Allero City

Once Ratchet flew the ship into Allero City. What they saw next made the entire groups jaws drop. What the Human saw was something that would come out of a sci-fi movie. Buildings that reached up into the clouds. Hover cars bustling around the city. And the people, thousands of people walking and running around trying to get from one place to the other. But there were alot of people running, and it seemed like they were running away from something, but what? Once the group got closer to the city, they found out the reason why. What they saw were Blargian dropships dropping warbots onto the ground. And once they saw where they were headed, they were headed towards a place the Human remembered Ratchet mentioning called the Hall Of Heroes. Once Ratchet flew the ship towards the famed building. They saw what must've been hundreds of red warbots attacking only twenty blue warbots below. "Oh no." Jordan said.

"It's an evasion. We are too late." Clank said.

"See. I told you if we would've done this first, none of this would've happened."

"Alright alright don't panic. Maybe we still got time to save them." Ratchet said.

"What do you suppose we do?"

"I may have an idea." Ratchet flew towards the main warship that hung above the city and the Lombax got ready to fire a missile at it. Once it was in range, Ratchet pressed a button and a missile shot out from the ship and corkscrewed towards it's intended target. But suddenly, the missile made an immediate right turn and started flying towards the ground. The group then saw the missile hit a golden statue of Captain Qwark and blow it's head right off the body. "Whoops. I must've forgotten to install the targeting software." Ratchet then looked towards Clank and Jordan. "Here one of you guys take the controls for a second, I'm gonna go down below and fix this." Ratchet then dropped to the ground and fiddled with the wires below, leaving the wheel completely unmanned. Jordan then picked Clank up and put him in the pilot's seat, knowing he should know more about ships than he did.

And boy was he wrong.

"Oh..I..Um.." Clank said, trying to figure out what to do next.

"You don't know how to fly a ship do you?" Jordan asked.

"Unfortunately no." Jordan and Clank then both saw that they were about to crash into a building. But Clank quickly got a grip on the steering wheel and pulled it to the left to avoid. Unfortunately he was too late and they ended up only clipping the building.

"Ow!" Ratchet yelled. "Hey, what's going on up there."

"Well Clanks piloting skills are. What do you say.." Jordan said, trying to figure out what to call his flying skills.

"Slightly underdeveloped?" Clank suggested.

"Yeah, that."

"Yeah I think we can definitely agree on that." while Ratchet was installing the targeting software, Clank started flying the ship through the city. Sometimes spiraling out of control, and flying through traffic. Jordan knew something bad was going to happen eventually. So the Human put his seat belt on and looked over to Sophia and saw that she didn't have a seat belt on. "Seat belt Sophia!" Jordan commanded.

"Okay." Sophia quickly put her seat belt on and Jordan looked down to Ratchet to assess the situation. "How's it coming down there?"

"Almost done." after Ratchet made a few adjustments, the targeting system was finally installed. "Done, try it now." Ratchet then got up from underneath the dashboard and sat in the passenger seat next to Clank.

"Ratchet, we are clearly not prepared for this. We should of contacted the rangers to warn them of the attack." Clank said.

"Yeah right like they would know who we are." Ratchet said.

"You said they were your friends." Jordan said.

"Whaaaaat? I think you're quoting me out of context."

"No. You said, and I quote-"

"The rangers are actually my uh, friends." Jordan and Ratchet looked over to where those words were said. And they saw Clank press a button on his body and play a recording of Ratchet saying the exact same words he said when they were on Veldin. "Do you record everything I say?" Ratchet said.

"Do you record everything I say." the message repeated.

"Guys?" Jordan said as he looked through the windshield of the cockpit and saw they were about to plow right through a billboard.

"Oh that is so immature." Ratchet said.

"Oh that is so immature." the message repeated.

"Guys!?"

"What Jordan?"

"BLOCKADE!" the group looked in front of them and saw the billboard that Jordan was trying to warn them about. The only thing the group did however was yell in terror and they flew right into the billboard and destroyed it. They then started spinning out of control and started plummeting towards the ground below. "We're going down!" Ratchet yelled. The Lombax and Robot then started flying around the cockpit of the ship, due to the fact that they didn't have their seat belt on.

"Your, sense, of, direction, is, impeccable." Clank said. Once the ship stopped spinning around, they looked and saw that they were about to hit the concrete pavement of the entrance to a building. But now Ratchet was in the driver's seat and Clank was in the passenger seat. "I can fix this." Ratchet said as he grabbed hold of the steering wheel. Ratchet then pushed a lever above the dashboard forward and that made the thrusters of the ship flip around one hundred and eighty degrees and slowly bring the ship to a stop. But Jordan looked through the window of the ship and saw a kid standing right beside the ship with his jaw dropped completely to the ground. Jordan saw Ratchet salute the kid and Ratchet put the ship into reverse. Once they were one hundred feet above the ground, Ratchet pushed the lever forward and the thrusters flipped one hundred and eighty degrees again and flew the ship forward. Ratchet then flew the ship towards the Hall of Heroes and started thinking of a plan on how to save the Rangers from being utterly annihilated. That's when Clank actually got an idea as he noticed a Mag-Booster on the side of Ratchet's ship "Guys. I believe I may have an idea."

"Really, what is it?" Ratchet asked.

"Your weapon package includes a Mag-Booster. I am rewriting the software to isolate the raritanium alloy used to manufacture us."

"Great idea Clank." Ratchet said. With a plan in mind, Clank started tapping way on the dashboards computer and tried to get the device to work. After one minute of typing, Clank finally got the Mag-Booster to work with the warbots metal and they were ready to save the day. "Executing command and..Engage Mag-Booster." Ratchet then flipped a little switch on the side of the ship and and engaged the weapon. Slowly, but surely, warbots started flying off the ground and towards the ship. "Is it working?" Jordan asked. Suddenly, Clank flew up to the roof of the ship and stuck to it.

"I believe it is working." Clank said. Jordan then looked out from the side of the ship and saw a trail of what must've been a hundred warbots following them from fifty feet away. "Thats one hell of a magnet." Jordan complimented.

"Thanks. Now lets return these warbots to their sender." Ratchet started flying the ship high in the sky towards the Blargian warship, while at the same time keeping the warbots away at a safe distance away from their ship. "There are three thousand heavily armed warbots gaining on us." Clank said, sounding worried.

"I know, isn't it great?" Ratchet said. The group was now getting closer and closer to the ship. "Terminate the Mag-Booster on my mark. Three...Two...One...MARK!" Ratchet pushed the switch back and disengaged the Mag-Booster. Ratchet then pulled away from the warship and let over three thousand warbots hit the ship, causing the entire warship to erupt into one giant fireball. "We did it!" Jordan exclaimed.

"Yeah!" Ratchet cheered. Ratchet then corkscrewed the ship threw the air and started flying the ship towards the Hall Of Heroes. Once he landed the ship right beside the building, a crowd of people started surrounding the ship. Once Ratchet opened the cockpit of the ship, cheering could be heard from the crowd, wanting to congratulate the whole group on their victory. Ratchet and Clank got up from their seats and looked towards the cheering crowd. The famed Captain Qwark himself then stepped in front of the group and backed the crowd away. "Alright everyone, let's give these heroes some breathing room. I'm more than happy to field all questions on their behalf." as Captain Qwark was answering a few questions from a few reporters, Jordan saw that the captain was much taller than he had expected. In fact, he actually looked very Human. Despite the tall height and long chin appearance. And the three fingers, he actually looked Human. But as his mind was so focused on the captain's appearance, he didn't hear what he was talking about and heard the whole crowd started cheering again. Jordan then saw Ratchet and Clank both get picked up by the captain and held in the air. Jordan tried yelling to his partner what was going on, but he couldn't hear him at first. "Whats going on?!" Jordan yelled to Ratchet. But he couldn't hear him. "RATCHET!?"

"What?!"

"Whats going on?!"

"Were going to be Galactic Rangers! Isn't it great!?" Jordan hesitated when he heard that question. A Galactic Ranger, was he really up for that kind of job. Besides, all he wanted to do was get home. First he tried to help a little furball get a message out to the rangers, now this. Jordan just wanted to get home. But Jordan sat there and thought for a second. Maybe the rangers would have something for him to teleport home somehow. But of course, when it comes to people, there probably gonna want something from him in return. So Jordan decided if working with the rangers would give him a way home, then that's what he would do. So Jordan helped Sophia up and out of the ship and proceeded to follow Ratchet, Clank, Qwark, and the rest of the crowd into the Hall of Heroes.

Well. Thats it for chapter 7. I'm sorry if this isn't as action packed as you think it would be. Because you know how action packed it was in the game. But like I said, this is also a movie insert too, so some chapters will be just like it was in the movie and not as good as you think it would be. So I'm sorry for that. But next will be chaper 4 I believe of Man Vs Machine. And that's about it I have to say for now. Stay tuned to see if our Human companion will recover from his injury and hopefully get back on his feet again (If he does that is).
