Well here it is. I do not own Ratchet and Clank, even after forcing insomniac to allow me to own the series (i guess using a quack-o-ray just isn't enough) anyways, here we are!


Rise of Nefarious


"Well well well" Nefarious said. "What happened to that squishy you are always playing backpack with?"

"Ratchet dropped me off so I could investigate the destruction of this very station." Clank said angrily starring at the doctor that insulted his friend. "On another note, why did you destroy this station?"

"It's all in a matter of time when you and your friend will finally find out." The scratchy voiced doctor said. "Everything is going according to my plans...exactly according to plan." Then he turned and looked at Lawrence and shouted: "LAWRENCE!" He said with a cracking voice. "Teleport us out of here!"

"Where to Sir?" The butler said.

"Where do you think!" The doctor said sarcastically. "TO MY SPACE STATION!"

"Very well Sir" Lawrence said obeying his master's orders.
Lawrence activated the teleporter and brought him and Nefarious to their secret headquarters. As they left, Clank was wondering about what the doctor had said. He thought that maybe since he said It's all a matter of time, he guessed that there may be a small chance that he may desire to gain control over the Great Clock, after his recent failure. He also wondered why the Apogee Space Station was one of his targets, regardless of what his main plot was about. Since there wasn't much evidence, other than the fact that Doctor Nefarious destroyed the space station, Clank decided to report back to Ratchet. As He started his way back to Ratchet, Clank noticed something. It was a small flyer that had apparently drifted and got crumpled up in the Apogee ruins. He walked over, picked it up, and examined it. It stated:

Welcome all to the Serichros Galaxy's Favorite Arena for Mixed Combat, The Redemptionator Tournament! This tournament hosts all your favorite games, such as: Hoverboarding, Ariel Combat, Death Courses, and of course, the Redemption Arena's Death Match!. All entrants must apply at Verious City, Planet Kurokanoes.
Signed,

Redemption Director, Muroken Cymphros

"The Serichros Galaxy?" Clank said surprised. "How ever did this flyer reach all the way from that foreign galaxy, to Polaris?" Clank placed the flyer inside the small compartment in his chest. He figured he ought to show this to Ratchet. "I better get going" Clank said to himself. So he continued through the rubble to reach the other side where his friend was.


Meanwhile...

Nefarious Space Station

"Locate that galaxy that Lawrence teleported us to" Nefarious said to one of his robotic troops. "Once we conquer Polaris, we can take control over that galaxy as well!"

Lawrence intruded, "Sir, wouldn't make more sense to attempt to take over that other galaxy, rather than Polaris first?" Lawrence continued. "The lifeforms of Polaris already have troops after you, and in the new galaxy we stumbled upon, shouldn't have any records of you or your past plans."
The doctor thought for a minute. He then paced back and fourth, and pondered on the idea. After a few minutes of pacing, he finally spoke.
"In retrospect, that's not a bad idea, I'm glad I thought of it!" The doctor yelled.
He then turned and walked off to his quarters to plan his invasion of the galaxy ,that Lawrence and himself landed on after the self destruction of his original then was silently whispering:

"Soon...very soon... Muhahahahaha-... -ZZzzzt- "Oh Say you'll never leave me again Lance". "Oh Janice..."

"You really need to get that looked at Sir" Lawrence said while passing the short-circuited villain. He then walked up to his boss, raised his hand, and smacked him across the head.

"Hahahahahaha!..."

Vorselon looked at Lawrence and whispered "Does he not notice he does that?"

"Apparently not, but I refrain tell him because it's the best part of my day." Lawrence said.


Apogee Station (Ruins)

Ratchet thoroughly read over the letter. He studied it over and over before finally speaking. He finally said: "So a tournament." "Sounds like fun, plus maybe we could find out some information as to why the station was destroyed, or what Nefarious is plotting." The two then set off in search of this mysterious new galaxy, and to the sign up planet to attend the Redemptionator tournament.


That's it for chapter 3
