[Metropolis; Planet Kerwan]

Qwark was running away, feeling scared of what might happen to him.

Where is Ratchet and Clank?! Qwark kept overthinking where his two pals were. He looked and really wished they were here. A huge invasion is happening and it doesn't look pretty good on the heroes' end. Strange army creatures are invading the planet and the Galactic Rangers are getting crushed heavily.

People are running and screaming in terror. Buildings torn apart. Grav-trains were crushed and destroyed. There are even gigantic creatures that look slimy and ugly breaking Metropolis.

Nearby an area were the destruction was happening, a dropship landed near the battlefield and it had the Masters of Doom symbol on it. Exiting out of the ship was Mr. Z and a few other army creatures with him.

A hologram of Shadowis appeared and Mr. Z bowed.

"Our invasion of Kerwan is a success, commander."

"Good, I'll take Haven City on my own then we'll set it out for Earth as well. Are. Mr. O and Mr. L with you?"

"Yes, commander."

"Good, the real fun begins." Shadowis stated with an evil grin on his face.

The newly, powered Mr. O and Mr. L exited out of the dropship and bowed before Mr. Z.

Mr. Z extended out his hand, clenched it to a tight fist, and ordered "Make no mistake boys! Kill every last citizen on this planet! Send them a message that the Masters of Doom is not to be messed with!"

Mr. O and Mr. L both stood up and said at the same time, "For Morbius."

Mr. Z smiled evilly, "Yes, indeed. For Morbius."

The duo flew up and began their strike. They instantly cornered a group of civilians, all of whom seem to have children with them. The duo charged their power and used a purple energy lightening on them instantly killing them.

The entire city was in despair and horror. Qwark watched the city being torn apart by these creatures and was running. He wished he wasn't always a coward and would fight like Ratchet and Clank. However, these creatures were so powerful he didn't think any weapon would work on them, especially the giant ones.

What's wrong with me? He thought to himself. I'm supposed to be a hero and yet I'm running away. His thoughts kept pushing him to fight back but his body didn't want to face the danger, face the fear.


[Jak's Homeworld; Hospital]

Ratchet and Clank entered the room where Jak and Sly awaited them. They currently explained about the robot that crashed landed on this planet and instantly Jak knew what kind of robot they were talking.

"It's a Precursor Robot." Jak stated firmly.

"A what?" The duo asked at the same time.

"A Precursor Robot. What you perfectly described was a Precursor Robot created by the Precursors long ago. Although, now some of them have been modified by my enemies to take over the world or even worse." Jak explained.

Sounds almost like Clockwork, Sly thought to himself, reminded of such being.

"We've fought tons of giant robots before, why's this one any different?" Ratchet asked.

"The Precursors are our creators of the universe." Jak added, although it made Sly, Clank, and Ratchet feel weirded out that were creators of the universe.

"So they're gods?" Clank asked making sure he was hearing this right.

"Basically, yeah. But back to the robot, you said that it's flying space? I haven't heard of any Precursor Robot escape this planet and in space doing damage." Jak remarked.

"It's probably the Masters of Doom work." The master thief explained.

"it could be. Then again, it could've been Mr. O at the time was controlling it." Jak added.

"Yeah, we never did find out what happened with him. He just... flew up into space." Ratchet commented, still feeling weird about that.

One hour later...

Jak checked out of the hospital and was ready for action. The trio exited the hospital where Keira was for them in a Zoomer.

Keira jumped out of the Zoomer and went into Jak's arms, hugging him tightly.

Sly reminded himself of Carmelita when that occurred.

Ratchet was immediately reminded of Talwyn and was instantly hoping he can see her if she's alright.

After that all four of them went into the Zoomer and flew up back to HQ to discuss some matters.

After minutes passed of Bentley lecture everyone on the Masters of Doom Symbol then Torn explaining the messages received, things were starting to become more clearer, but there were questions being opened

"So, you're sure about this? Never heard of the Great Clock" Jak said

"I do," Ratchet spoke up, "it's gonna be hard explaining everything."

After an entire hour of explaining the Great Clock to everyone, they had mixed feelings.

Bentley was surprised something like that exists to hold the space-time continuum together.

Murray originally thought it was another time machine only to be greatly disappointed.

Sly was a bit impressed the Great Clock exists, Clank's relationship with his father reminded him of trying to retain the Thevius Racconus from the Fiendish Five.

Jak and Daxter looked at each other then back at Ratchet and Clank as they were done explaining the Great Clock.

"That's weirder than trying to learning about Precursors." Daxter commented snarkly.

"So what would the Masters of Doom want with the Great Clock?" Torn asked.

"I don't know, but it can be nothing good. An archenemy of ours called Dr. Nefarious did horrible stuff at the Great Clock." Ratchet remarked.

Daxter stares at Ratchet for a moment and cringed "Doctor... Nefarious????"

"Despite having a corny name, he's no joke when it comes to him being evil." Clank pointed out.

"I see." Daxter said, thinking to himself if he ever comes across this "Doctor Nefarious", he'd beat the crap out of him with such a horrible name. Seriously, what is it with villains and their horrible names.

"And the old man that told us of Uoi before MX came and attacked. He lives on the Far East of the planet." Jak added.

"Alright then that'll be your next mission. Find Uoi and see what information you can gather from him." Torn ordered.

"Right!" Jak, Ratchet, and Sly said simultaneously.
