Apogee Space Station (Orbit)
After their latest triumph over the evil plans of Doctor Nefarious, Ratchet and Clank find themselves heading back to the Apogee space station, to rest up and meet up with Talwin, Cronk, and Zepher.
"Apparently, we have both been through alot lately." Clank said to Ratchet. "I spent my time at the Great Clock that my father put together, and you have spent your time with another lombax trying to locate me."
"Yeah, that about sums it up." Ratchet said smiling. "So, who did you leave in charge of the clock?"
"I left Sigmund in charge, I felt that I should travel with you, so I promoted Sigmund to caretaker over the clock."
"That's cool" Ratchet replied. "Alright, well lets save the rest for when we land."
"Um...Ratchet" Clank said in a depressed tone. "Look.."
"Oh no..." the lombax replied, his voice and tone changed from it's previous volume, to a more shocked tone.
The Apogee Space Station had been completely decimated. Pieces of scrap metal and various wires were floating around the station's ruins. And the center, the inner sanctum of the station, had been blown to smithereens. Even the docking bay had be destroyed.
"Who could've done this...?" Ratchet finally said, breaking the long silence. Clank spoke up. "Ratchet, drop me off down there."
"What?, Why?" Ratchet said looking at his robotic pal with a strange look on his face. "You cannot breath out their without the aide of breathing implements." Clank informed. "On the other hand, I am able to do this."
"You sure?" Ratchet asked. "Are you absolutely sure about this?"
"I am positive" the little robot said. "Just lower me down, and I will try and locate some evidence."
Ratchet then reluctantly lowered his ship, dropped Clank off, and he landed on a small portion of the remaining docking bay.
"Good luck pal" Ratchet said as his robotic companion walked off into the shrapnel and fried circuits of the remains of the Apogee Space Station.
After a few minutes of wandering through the rubble, Clank stumbled upon something that sparked his interest.
"Hmm...I believe I have seen this insignia somewhere before..." Clank said pondering on the thought, and sight of the object. Looking at the insignia, he also noticed that it had been marked through, and also charred. He thought maybe someone did not what someone to find this item, that that is why this damage was delt to it.
"It...It cannot be..." Clank said with a grim look. He turned around to find out that his theory was indeed fact; Nefarious survived.
"Well well well" The robotic supremest said in a sinister voice. "Look what we have here..."
that's all for chapter 2
