Chapter 4: The Ultra Orbs

Hello, hello, I'm back. How are you all doin'? Spyrocitor continues, but not without a little interruption for a thanks to my three reviewers.

Ech: So thank you, panthergirl.

Antiech: Thank you, Moonlight Mistress.

Princess Aquaech: And thank you, Shadow the Rabbit.

And with some breaking news, here's our very own Sue Maleta for a special report.

Roo: Thank you, TTE, Sue Maleta here with a breaking news story: Time Travelling Echidna owns nothing.

Except...

Roo: Except us. Well, on with the story...

"Well, it took a while, but at least it's finished," Hunter said as he marveled at the new supercharge track, "Now all we need is the power source."

"Look at him, Sparx, with his stupid spaceship, "Spyro muttered to his dragonfly, "If he never landed here, Elora and I would still be together."

"You know, Spyro, if you quit complaining and just helped him, he could be out of here sooner," Sparx said, "Besides..." Zoƫ's calling interrupted him, though. "Whoops, gotta go, hope it turns out all right, Spyro!"

"God, I wish he wouldn't do that every time we're here," Spyro said to himself.

"Something wrong, Spyro?" Hunter asked as he walked over to his dragon friend.

"Does this kind of stuff always happen to the hero?" Spyro replied, "Jeez, it's like I don't even exist."

"Don't say that sort of stuff, Spyro," Hunter said, "Ratchet may be more popular than you at the moment, especially with the ladies, but you saved this planet twice, remember? I don't think that the Forgotten Realms of the South have stopped celebrating yet."

"Well how do you think that we could get him home, it's not like we have spare plutonium laying around here," Spyro said, "The orbs don't even hold that sort of power."

"The Professor may have found something, Spyro," Clank said as he walked over to Hunter and Spyro, "Our electrons' frequencies have matched with some items on this planet."

"What's up, Professor?" Hunter said as he and Spyro ran over to him, "Clank told us about the stuff that could get Ratchet and him home."

"Yes, Hunter," the Professor replied, "There are three things, the Ultra Orbs."

"The Ultra Orbs?" Spyro asked, "Haven't I seen them before, Professor?"

"Yes, Spyro, we gave them to you to use against Ripto the first time," Elora replied, "That's why it took so long to get enough."

"Are these going to be able to send us home, Professor?" Clank said, "After all, we do not have any real evidence that they will work."

"Yes, Clank, you're going home as soon as we get those orbs," he replied.

"All right!" Ratchet said when he heard the good news, "How soon can we get back?"

"Well, it will take about a week to charge the supercharge track," the Professor said, "So, next Saturday night, we're sending you back to..."

"The future?" Ratchet joked again.

"Ratchet, do not do that anymore," Clank said, "Nobody gets the joke."

"Do you always have to ruin my fun, Clank?" Ratchet said, "Well, anyway, Veldin or anywhere in our galaxy would be fine, we can always catch a space bus."

"Well, get going, you five," the Professor said, "Sparx, get over here. You have to go with them."

"I'll get the green Ultra Orb," Spyro said.

"We'll get the yellow one," Ratchet said.

"I'll go with Ratchet!" Elora said, but the professor disagreed.

"It isn't smart for there to be different numbers if you're evenly divisible," he said, "You can go with Hunter to get the red one, and Sparx will go with Spyro."

"Aww, man," Elora pouted.

"Well, if Elora wants Ratchet more than me, I'll just get rid of Ratchet," Spyro thought to himself, "Then she'll like me again."

Okay, that's chapter 4.

Platypous: Review, please.

Antiroo: And don't forget to turn off the garage light!
