The Demon of Polaris
Questions
After Ratchet and Thompson talked for a few more minutes Thompson left and helped the other lombaxes settle in. Ratchet just stood there he still couldn't believe his eyes, thousands of lombaxes all coming home; Ratchet watched them with a smile for a few minutes before he decided to go and help them along with Thompson.
Ratchet went in to the fray and helped all of the newly arrived lombaxes get settled in with shelter and food. Ratchet ran to his house and fired up aphelion and tied a few of his hundred square foot tarps to her hull. He flew the tarps over to where the lombaxes were still coming out of the portal and he dropped them there, Ratchet landed aphelion there as well and climbed out and started unraveling the tarps and attaching them in four points to provide a makeshift roof above the lombaxes for shelter and shade. Thompson noticed what Ratchet was doing and he ordered a few of his subordinates to help him.
Within two hours all of the lombaxes were settled, Thompson walked over to Ratchet and thanked him for the help, he also relayed a message from the elders to Ratchet saying that they wanted to speak to him; Ratchet nodded and made his way for his house that he lent to the elders until they constructed a new elder council chamber.
When Ratchet arrived at his house he walked in and met the elders who were sitting in his rather large living room, "hello Ratchet we want to thank you for helping so much and also for lending us your house" Mack said, he and the other elders were very grateful for his hospitality and his help with setting the lombaxes up with basic living conditions; "don't mention it, if there is anything I can do to help just ask" Ratchet stated, the lombax elders smiled and nodded. Kate had a feeling of Deja vu when she first laid eyes on Ratchet but she couldn't put her finger on it so she just put the thought aside, "Ratchet would you mind if you told us about yourself" Kate asked, Ratchet raised a brow "sure what do you want to know" the elders spoke amongst themselves for a minute "everything, beginning to end" Kate said, Ratchet was shocked that they want to know his whole life story, "that is a lot to tell, it will take a while" Ratchet warned "don't worry we have all day" Kate reassured.
Ratchet had no problem telling his life story for he loved to tell his hero stories to people and that is pretty much his whole life since he was around the age of sixteen, that is when he first met clank on velden. "Well it all started when I was raised in an orphanage on the planet of velden in the Solana galaxy, I was the only lombax so I got picked on pretty much the whole time I was there. I moved out of the orphanage at the age of sixteen when I had raised enough money to buy a garage to live in and tinker; that was until I met Clank, he was in a ship that crashed, I found him and brought him back to my garage, when he reactivated he told me about a villain named drek who was ripping apart planets and killing innocents so that he could build a new planet for himself and his race me and clank chased him across Solana and defeated him.
After an hour and a half Ratchet was finally telling the elders about when Tachyon found him in Kerwan, they battled across Polaris and Ratchet had defeated him in the court of azimuth. "And last but not least, during my search for my friend clank I met another lombax" Ratchet paused and wiped a tear from his eye, "Alister azimuth he helped me find my friend clank, but he gave his life to defend many from certain disaster" Ratchet told his whole life story leaving out the part about the great clock for clank would probably not want anyone else to know about it. Ratchet looked up at the elders who were wide eyed by Ratchets story, he also spotted Kate staring at him almost as if she was in a trance, "um is there something the matter" Ratchet asked, Kate shook herself from her trance, "no you just remind me of somebody I used to know, his name was Kaden, and he was the reason we made it out of this dimension, you are just the spitting image of him" a small smile went across Ratchets lips "well I should look like him, he was my father" when Ratchet said this Kate lost her professional look and busted out in tears and ran to Ratchet, where she hugged him tightly, Ratchet was very shocked by her actions, "um what is going on" Ratchet looked at the other elders who now had their mouths hung agape with a look of disbelief plastered on their faces, Kate let go of Ratchet and knelt down with her hands on his shoulders, she looked into his eyes, "Ratchet, Kaden was my husband, that makes you my son, I thought you had died in the attack" Kate said in between happy sobs, Ratchet was now just as shocked as the other elders, tears started to form in Ratchets eyes and he lunged forward and embraced Kate in a tight hug "mom" is all that escaped Ratchets mouth and they hugged each other for a few minutes of happy cries
The two lombaxes composed themselves after they got reunited "I was told that you were dead, how did you survive the attack" Ratchet asked his newly found mother, "I was wounded by one of Tachyons troops and in a near death state, Mack over there found me dressed my wounds and carried me to the court of azimuth where we were sent to the other dimension" Kate said, "enough about me, how did you get to Solana I thought you died in the attack, the daycare you were in got destroyed by Tachyon" Kate asked "I-I don't know, my earliest memory was of the orphanage" the two continued talking, they were just happy to be reunited with each other.
