Chapter10: A Challenge
It was 3 weeks after the latest fatality
Clank was sitting on the couch watching the holovid. As he admired his greatness on another episode of "Secret Agent Clank", Al walked into the room.
"Clank, you seen Ratchet?"
"He is in the VR simulator."
"Tell him the repairs on the ship are done."
"Okay."
Al walked out of the room just as Ratchet entered.
"Ratchet, Al---"
"I heard."
"Oh."
They sat there in silence for what seemed like hours but it was merely 20 minutes. Right in the middle of one of Clank's fight scene, a screen showing the words "Special News Bulletin" appeared on the screen.
"This is Darla Gratch reporting for Channel 5 news with The New Breed who have an important message."
"That's right! We have an announcement for that loser lombax Ratchet.We're tired of youstupid has-beenYou have a beef with us? Let's end it. Meet us on Planet Tabora and only one of us will leave. I guarantee it personally."
Everyone was silent until Darla suddenly remembered her job.
"I guess this is Darla Gratch with Channel 5 news"
Everyone stood stunned but Sasha turned to face Ratchet.
"Ratchet, I know you're mad but you can't-"
It was too late. Ratchet and Clank were already gone.
Final Thought- Told you it was short. Next chapter will have the dramatic confrontation I've been building up to this entire story! I'll try to update soon. See you later.
