Editor's Note- Let's get down to business. Many readers thought that last chapter was the final battle but those people were wrong! My story won't last much longer but the final battle will be much longer and gorier!

Relax and be patient. The end is near. But not too near.

Chapter 20: Radon

The Starship Phoenix was quiet with work.Ratchet was in the VR simulator taking out his aggression. Sasha was piloting through a dangerous asteroid belt.Al was in his robotics lab, tinkering with his latest invention.

As Clank observed these habits as he strolled through the corridors, he walked into an unfamiliar room.

"What in the world!"

Three ninja squirrels jumped into the air with flying kicks. Clank ducked and zapped with his Clank Shocker. The three animals fell on the floor stunned but he forgot to notice one of them hanging from the ceiling. Falling from above, the ninja let out a battle cry.

"Yahhhhhhhhh!"

"Ahhhhhhhhhh!"

As Clank and the squirrel rolled around on the floor, a frustrated engineer pressed buttons on a remote furiously. The squirrels stopped all movement.

"Sorry about that! My latest invention, Robot Ninja Squirrels!"

Clank stared at him with a puzzled expression on his head.

"This is what our funding is going towards!"

"There have been stupider ideas!"

A green flash lit the room, revealing a jubilant Al.

"It works! It really works!"

"How did you get here?"

"My latest invention! Come with me."

As they entered the robot hangar, they gasped in amazement at the huge machine. It had a satellite dish head with a square body and many knobs and levers.

"What is it?"

"Remember the Recall I invented a couple of chapters ago?"

"You mean the thing we used once and never heard about ever again?"

"Yeah, well I upgraded the tech to a teleportation-matrix inducer!"

Ratchet and Clank stared with stupid expressions on their faces.

"It moves stuff."

"Oh."

"What's the point of it?"

"I was thinking we could transport Reznor into a vat of acid or a volcano or something."

Sasha entered the lab with a purpose.

"It's done. Good, now come to the bridge. I think we have a use for it."

They moved quickly to the front of the ship.

"So, our fundings been going towards Al's little project."

"Yeah."

"So, Al gets a teleporter but I don't get a puppy!"

"What good would a puppy do for fighting evils?"

"It could make them puke by licking its butt!"

As Ratchet and Sasha argued, they eventually made their way to the bridge and they immediately went quiet. For a moment.

"What is that!"

A huge mass of purple energy was on the screen, crackling with lightning. It was planet-sized and had a radioactive glow to it.

"It is a plasma-formed subplanet with an atmosphere consisting of radon, uranium, silicon, and hydrogen in its last stage of life."

The others stared at Al when he finished his explanation.

"Al, shut up."

"Shutting."

"It's planet Ragnorak and its about to go into the supernova stage of its life."

"Shouldn't we be moving away from it, then?"

"Think about it."

Ratchet stroked his chin and thought. Then a smile spread from ear to ear.

"This could work."

"Alright people, lets get to work."

Final Thought- That was stupid and useful to the plot! Yay, I need to think about some new words. There are only 3 chapters left, so ask questions now!

P.S. I have copyrights to all aspects of theninja squirrel franchise! Don't even try to steal it. Say word!
