The demon of Polaris
As soon as Ratchet and Clank heard the news broadcast they got on the radio with Omiria.
"Starship Aphelion to Starship Omiria over"
"This is Starship Omiria go ahead Aphelion over" Kate replied
"We just got a radio broadcast; Kane is in Axiom City over"
"Great! Let's go get him, over"
"It is not that simple, he is terrorizing the city, I'm sorry mom, and he is in way over his head"
Kate started to cry to herself, she knew what Ratchet meant. Her son would spend life behind bars or worse, death by firing squad.
"Ok… I understand I will call the general" Kate then reached for the knob to switch frequencies. However she was stopped by Ratchets voice
"Are you sure mom? I mean he is your son, I know that, but you don't have to make the call if you don't want to"
"Thank you Ratchet, please do this for me" Kate said in between sobs. Ratchet nodded and turned the dial to the Praetorian Guard frequency
"This is starship Aphelion to General Thompson, over"
There was static for a few moments but Ratchet tried again, maybe no one was monitoring the radios
"Starship Aphelion to General Thompson, over" static was all Ratchet got back from the radio. Ratchet turned the frequency back to his mother.
"I am getting nothing but static, we will have to do this ourselves mom". Ratchet got a nod back from his mother and the two of them shut down their com link with each other. "Aphelion set course for Axiom City". Aphelion obliged and they shot off into warp space next destination Axiom City.
After twenty minutes of travel the warp drive shut down and Ratchet was met with the view of planet terachnos. You could see the smoke rising off of the planet from orbit. Kane had really done a number on the place Ratchet thought to himself. Ratchet opened up a com link with Omiria "Starship Aphelion to starship Omiria". He waited a few moments until he got a response.
"This is Starship Omiria, over"
"Be prepared for the worst mom, Kane already tried to kill me, I don't know if he will do the same if you try to stop him too"
Ratchet was very concerned for his mother. He didn't know how Kane would react to her. Even know Ratchet was hesitant about fighting Kane back on fastoon he would die before he let Kane hurt his mother; Kane was a kind soul once upon a time but that all changed when he tried to kill Ratchet.
"I know Ratchet, I am ready for the worst" Kate said with a sorrow filled voice, she knew what they were in for.
"I want you to know mom, if it comes to that you aren't alone, I will be there for you" Ratchet reassured.
"Ok Ratchet let's get this done" Kate said. With that the two Lombax star fighters flew down to the burning planet.
The two ships landed in axiom city which had massive storm clouds looming overhead, many of the buildings in the city were crumbling or burning, black smoke and fires could be seen for miles in every direction. Ratchet popped his canopy and he was met by the heavy rain that instantly soaked his fur. "Wonderful I have to fight with a heavy soaking wet coat now" Ratchet said with a deadpanned look on his face. He was irritated but he pushed all thoughts away so that he could focus on his mission. Get Kane and bring him back alive… or as a last resort…dead, Ratchet thought to himself. Ratchet grabbed Clank and attached him to his harness before jumping out of Aphelion.
(Kate's point of view)
Kate followed Ratchet to the city and landed Omiria on the landing pad next to Aphelion. As soon as the ship touched ground Kate leaned forward and said a prayer "lord make me and Ratchet strong, help us through this mission without blood being spilled, amen". Kate sat back up and looked over to Aphelion and saw the canopy pop open and Ratchet climbed out. Kate popped Omiria canopy, climbed out and joined her son on the platform. The two of them stood there with emotionless looks upon their faces, they were taking in the destruction caused by Kane. Ratchet broke the silence
(Ratchets point of view)
"I need to get to a terminal so that I can hack into the city's camera feed, which would be the best way to scout with minimum chances of being caught by Kane"
"And how do you plan to get into the security office without getting detected and what if Kane is in control of the cameras"
Ratchet gave a mischievous half grin "I have a friend on the inside" Ratchet said and pulled his communicator off of his utility belt. Ratchet scrolled through his contacts and when he found who he was looking for he selected it. Seconds later a terachnoid appeared in a hologram that came off of the handheld devise
"Ratchet! We are being attacked please help" The terachnoid said in a panic.
"Jarvis calm down, that is why we're here, is the way to the camera terminals clear?" Ratchet asked. Jarvis punched a few keys on a console and turned back towards Ratchet.
"I-I am sorry Ratchet the security office is destroyed" Jarvis said
"Ok, don't worry Jarvis, lock your door and stay there, we will take care of Kane, thanks".
With that Ratchet closed his com link and turned towards Kate. "Well, it looks like we have to scout the old fashioned way" Ratchet said while pulling out his splitter rifle. The two lombaxes went for the highest building that was still intact and climbed to the roof. Ratchet pulled his scope up and scanned the city looking for any trace of Kane but what he finds is even worse. Kane was standing in the middle of town square surrounded by Lombaxes who all seem to be on his side. But that is not the worst bit they had General Thompson tied up and kneeling in the center of the group.
"He has followers mom, a-and Thompson"
