Chapter 3

"The save"

Click-Clack scurried through the crater, ducking and cowering every 3 seconds. "Zig-Zag," Click-Clack told himself in a shaky voice, dodging all over the place in a zig zag motion. He ran all across the crater, checked everywhere, but he couldn't find who he was looking for. He checked the aqueduct, the garage, the ore station, everything the trucks had built together, but he just couldn't find them. After a lot of hesitation, he decided to go searching in more unfamiliar places. He checked all over the place, but couldn't find them. But then he saw a cave and thought he might want to check it.

"Oh no I don't," said Click-clack, "I do not want to go in there one bit. I should just skip it… but then the trucks will be stuck forever! Oh, I have to do it, but I really don't want to." After lots of arguing with himself, Click-clack built up enough courage to go into the cave. When he entered the cave, before he got very far in, he heard a sudden voice.

"Hey! Who goes there!" yelled an unknown voice. Click-clack retracted his head and put his hands over it, while losing all his bits. What appeared to be a reptool skittered out of the cave. "Hey… it's you?" asked the reptool, "hey, no need to be scared." Click-clack looked up. The reptool looked like it was the same kind of Revvit, with the ability to hold about 5 or 6 bits, but this one was different. It had a black exterior, and there was what appeared to be a small gun attached to him. He also looked slightly larger than normal, and there was a large glass mask over his face, with some air holes.

"He-hello," said Click-clack in a very shaky voice.

"What are you here for?" asked the reptool.

"I-I need some help. My friends are in trouble," replied Click-clack, in the same shaky tone.

"Follow me," said the reptool. He led Click-clack into the cave, where he saw 3 other reptools, this time though they were normal reptools like Revvit or Click-clack. There was an orange one, a black one, and a blue one. Behind the reptools there was the needle ship, turned around, and the back portion was opened up into a ramp which provided an entrance to the inside.

"Who is this?" questioned the black one, as the reptool that was larger with the face mask actually took the whole thing off, revealing that he was wearing a suit. He was actually a green reptool, just like the others.

"I think you know very well who he is, as he's the one we saved. He said his friends are in trouble and he's looking for help," replied the green reptool.

"Well, why do you think we should help you?! All you've done to us is try to steal our ship when we were minding our own business, you snuck up on us out of nowhere as we recharged our batteries, and then we thought 'hey, let's try to be allies even after what you guys did,' so we went ahead and went to your ore building and thought we would put some ore in it and maybe introduce ourselves! So, after all you have done, to you really expect us to help your friends out?!" yelled the black reptool.

"we-well I thought if y-you saved me earlier, may-maybe you could do it again," said Click-clack in probably the shakiest voice he has ever had.

"Yeah, we'll saving a reptool is different than a dinotrux, even if they are on the same team," countered the Black reptool.

"Never leave a reptool behind," added the blue reptool.

"So… no deal. We will not save your friends," said the green reptool.

"B-b-b-but we didn't know yo-you were try-trying to be friendly," Click-clack said in his shaky tone.

"Fine. We'll consider it, but don't expect us to say yes," agreed the black reptool. After a few minutes of consideration, the reptools finally agreed to save the trucks.

"Hop in the ship," said the blue reptool, "by the way, the names Ky."

"I'm lite," said the orange one.

"Vrome," said the black one.

"and I'm Smate," said the green one. Everybody hopped into the ship and they closed the back door. The interior of the ship was amazing. At the front was a large glass dome enabling visibility of the outside, and there were multiple buttons and levers to control the ship up there. Then there was the storage area which was in the center of the ship, and it had 5 smaller ships. 4 of them were the smaller infantry ships that the trucks saw earlier, with the guns and extra armor, but then there was another one, that looked like a construction ship. It had three different arms attached to it, one with a welder, one with a grinder, and one that was just used to pick stuff up. Vrome hopped into what appeared to be the pilot seat, as lite went into a back portion of the ship. Smate went into a seat next to the pilot seat, and Ky got into the construction ship to prepare it for takeoff. The ship began to fly upwards, and the landing gear was retracted. The ship began to move forwards, and it exited the cave. The ship slowly sped up, and Click-clack led the reptool crew towards the tar pit in which the trucks were stuck.

Back at the tar pit

Click-Clack ran to the edge of the tar pit, looking down on everyone.

"did you find help?" asked Ty.

"yes," replied Click-clack, in his shaky voice. As he said that, the needle ship flew overhead and stopped right above the tar pit.

"Click-clack! Look out! The needle is back!" yelled Skya.

"No, it's ok," said Click-clack, "their cool. Our whole relationship is just a big misunderstanding." The needle opened a hatch on the bottom and deployed 3 different ropes. The construction ship Click-clack saw earlier was also deployed. The construction ship came down and tied the rope around Ton-ton. The needle ship flew up with all of its power, and it managed to get Ton-ton out of the pit. It then repeated the process for Skya and dozer. It was time to bring up Ty, but when the ropes were tied around him, scrapadactals came in. they swarmed the needle ship, and they tore off two out of 4 of the rocket engines that powered the needle ship. The whole thing started flying out of control.

"Smate! We need stabilization!" yelled Vrome.

"on it!" replied Smate, running to the back of the ship to the engine room. The ship began to stabilize, but only two rockets was not quite enough for the needle to lift Ty out, and all the other trux were too busy fighting the scrapadactals to help.

"Lite! I need you to direct all power to the engines!" yelled Vrome.

"But Vrome! It'll short out all the rockets, rendering them useless and broken!" Lite yelled back.

"Just do it!" Lite went ahead and redirected all power to the remaining rockets, and the ship was just barely able to get Ty out of the pit before the whole thing collapsed on the ground and the rockets started fire. The reptool ran out of the needle ship and they started gathering water to put out the fire.

"Let me help with that," said Ty, grabbing a mouthful of water and dousing the flames.

A short distance away

D-Structs stood watching as the needle ship helped the trucks out.

"What?! I thought they were enemies!" growled D-structs.

"Wow, those trucks sure are good kkkkkrrrrrr at making friends, aren't they kkkkkrrrrrr. I sure wish I could be like them kkkkkrrrrrr," admired Scrap-it. D-structs immediately growled angrily and launched scrap-it as far away as he could.
