While Ratchet making their dinner, Clank was sitting on the chair in the dining room quietly. He still could not believe that he was turned into a Lombax. Wiggling his new extra fingers, he wondered where his original robotic body was gone. Was it melted away? If so, why his all memory did not disappeared with it? So, did it still exist inside of him? Ridiculous! If so, why he could feel his heart beating and breathing in his chest?
A heavily sigh escaped the gray Lombax's lips. Whatever, he just could not wait to turn back into his original body already. Of course, he had been wished to be like this from time to time when he was a robot. However, now, his confusion, fear and nervous were getting bigger and bigger and he had no idea how to deal with them.
Suddenly, a loud strange sound was heard coming from Clank's stomach. The gray Lombax let out a loud gasp and pushed his hands against it. 'W-What was that!?' When it growled again, his face turned pale. It was not so long since he had read his book which was written about animal's anatomy. In the last few pages, there was a shock sight. His eyes widen when he saw a white, grouse, like an earthworm creature; a parasite.
"R-Ratchet!" Clank exclaimed in panic, ran over the yellow Lombax.
"What is it, Clank?" Ratchet looked his friend as raised his eyebrow. He was surprised when he noticed his friend's eyes were filled with tears.
"C-Clank! What's the matter!? A-Are you okay!?" Ratchet stopped cooking, grabbed the gray Lombax's shoulders gently as looked into his face.
"I-…," As Clank tried to speak out, he felt a lump rising up in his throat and his vision getting fuzzy and the next moment, he found his eyes started discharging water. The new Lombax freaked out and fell from his butt. "My eyes are melting !"
"Clank, calm down! Just calm down!" Ratchet rushed to his friend and gently rubbed his back, "It is just tears. You are just crying."
"C-Crying?
Ratchet explained what to cry is and the tears shortly. He noticed the gray Lombax relaxed a little.
"S-So…m-my eyes are not m-melting?" Clank tried to speak normally but he could not because of the hiccups.
Ratchet gave him a warm smile as nodded, he asked what made him cry. Clank looked down his stomach and pushed his hands against it.
"A-…P-Parasite…"
"A parasite?"
Clank quietly nodded. His eyes were getting watery again. "I-I got it …i-in my stoma-…" Suddenly, his words were cut by the familiar grumble, he started crying as he rolled his back. Looking at the gray Lombax, Ratchet could not help but laughed. Clank was quite shocked and exclaimed as redden his face in anger. "WHAT IS SO FUNNY!?" He could not believe that the yellow Lombax laughed despite of his friend is in danger.
"HaHa, I'm sorry, pal. But you know, I've never met a guy who cries because just his stomach growled," Patting the gray Lombax's back, Ratchet added, "Don't worry. It's not a parasite. You are just hungry."
The yellow Lombax stood up and backed his work. The gray Lombax was sitting on the floor speechlessly. 'Hungry…Am I?' Clank paused for a moment until his friend called out him and asked him to set the table for dinner. He raised his feet as sighed heavily. His ears were lowered as he picked out plates. He wondered why he wanted to be an organic when he was a robot. If that liquid worked for his secret desire…Clank dropped his head as growled. 'I should have not wished to be an organic…' He regretted. But, until 10 minutes later.
