Chapter 2

Skrap-It sidled up the drive to the entrance of the lair. It was still night and he hoped that D-Structs had already fallen asleep; he wouldn't be very pleased if he saw Skrap-It coming home with empty hands.
D-story didn't sleep in the lair with D-Structs. The brothers had discussed about the apportionment of the crater again and D-Structs still got problems with sharing it. He demanded from his older sibling to not enter his cave at least during the night.

Skrap-It peered into the dark cave whose lava-pool made the atmosphere even scarier. He searched cautiously for D-Structs, but there were no sight of the giant T-Trux. He breathed out eased and wanted to go to his sleeping place, but on the half way, the claw of D-Structs stopped him from keeping walking.

"Where have you been? And where's my grey ore?!" Skrap-It made a few steps back. D-Structs was looking at him like he would smash him anyway, whatever Skrap-it was going to say.
"Well?" D-Stucts growled in anger and came closer to the Scraptool.
"I, I… I was really looking for it but, but…" Scrap-It started to stutter and D-Structs ran out of patience. "Out with it!"
"Well, I'd been searching for grey ore when, kkkk, I suddenly fell down a cliff and got bitten by a little blue BITBUG! Here, you see?" He stretched his foreleg in the air. "Now I got two holes in my leg from its teeth!"
"And that's your excuse for your unfinished job? Because you got bitten by a TINY BIGBUG?" Skrap-It thought a moment. "Kkkk, when you're saying it like that it really sounds a little ridicu-" He got interrupted by the catch of D-Structs tail. The big T-Trux swung his claw and threw the Scraptool into the last corner of the cave.
"Can't you ever do SOMETHING RIGHT OR EVEN DONE?" Now he was shouting at Skrap-It. "YOUR SO USELESS AND ANNOYING! Sometimes I want to take you to HUNDRED OF PUNY PIECES!"
Skrap-it managed to stand up again. He shook his head and glanced at D-Structs "Ah, I appreciate that you haven't done this, kkkk, until now."
"But I'm gonna do it if you DON'T GET ANY USE FOR ME SOON!"
D-Structs turned around and drove out the lair into the clear night. Skrap-It was glad that the T-trux resigned to smash him again.

This day had been too stressful for Skrap-It and he determined to go to bed in the first place. But by the time he wanted to go to his sleeping berth, he tripped. Skrap-It tried it again but tripped once more. "Uh, that's strange." He touched his right foreleg and found out that he couldn't feel the leg with the two holes anymore. Whatever, Skrap-It was too tired to think about it any longer and walked precariously to his bed. He was sure that all's gonna be ok the next day and when he laid himself down, he fell into a deep sleep; in spite of the storm which was coming closer to the crater.

The next morning in the hidden forest:

"Aaah, it looks like a mess outside here! Do we REALLY have to clean all up now?" Dozer was annoyed by the sight of the chaos outside the base.
"Yes, unfortunately." Revvit inspected the disorder around him. "The heavy storm from last night made a lot of damage. Our panels for the repairs are everywhere! And look!" He ran to the entrance. "There is a big part missing from our door. Probably made by something the wind had carried with him."
"So, it seems that we have to remove the whole thing." Ty swung his wrecking ball and threw it against the doorway.

Revvit started to distribute small jobs to the rest of his friends.
"Dozer, could you remove the trees which have fallen over? Waldo, Click-Clack and Ace, can you collect the bolts on the ground? I'm not sure if they are all belonging to our base. Xee and Ton-ton, please pick up all panels. And don't miss one! They are very important for us and Ty has been searching yesterday all day long for theme. "
"You can say that, Rev. My back is hurting till now from picking up all those things. Oh, and maybe from a fight with six Desert-Scraptors." Ty couldn't forbear a tiny smile.
"So, let's go. Perhaps we get finished before lunchtime."
"Yeah, and hope those freaky things with the scary thing on their heads won't pass our way, dudes."

"Wait!" Now it was the orange Cranesaur who rose to speak. "What should I do?"
"Could you help Dozer putting away the tree trunks, if you don't mind?"
Skya looked annoyed at the Reptool. "Ahhh, I don't mind, if need be…" "Well, but I mind!" The yellow Dozeratops joined them. "I don't need help; I'm strong enough to make this job by myself."
Revit blew out the air. Dozers stubbornness really looted his patience sometime. "But you are faster when you work together, are you awake to this, Dozer?" "Of course I am! But-" "Good, than it's decided now. Skya works with you."
Revvit turned around and went away. This was too childish to discuss about it any longer, he had better things to do.

"So, I bet that I'm gonna put away MORE tree trunks than you, Dozer." The Cranesaur glanced provokingly at the Dozeratops. He was so predictable.
"No way!" And this was the signal for the beginning of the competition.

Ton-ton and Xee had already picked up five panels. Their goal (or mostly Ton-Tons goal) was to be the first Trux and Tool who finished the task. They were currently driving to the next panel when Ton-Ton suddenly stopped. The braking had been so abruptly that Xee flew over the Ankylodumps head and nearly hit a tree; but she handled the situation with an elegant movement and landed on her feet.
"What's gotten into you, Ton-Ton?" The Dumper aimed his eyes on something that was laying in front of him "Dude, I almost run those things over."
The Tool was curious now. Xee went back to Ton-Ton and got a look at "those things" which had concerned the Ankylodump. What Xee saw let her hesitate too for a moment:
Four grey Eggs with yellow strips were laying in a small nest. It was made of thorny branches and a handful leaves had been carefully placed into it in order to make the nest a little more comfortable.

Xee wasn't very happy about their discovery. "Revvit! You might wanna see that."
The green Tool approached the nest with the eggs inside. Revits bits started to spin and he uttered a "hm" while he was studying the round intruders.
Ty had also paused his work and rolled to his friend. "Rev, do you know to whom those eggs belong?"
The Tool reflected with a serious countenance
"I'm sure that I've seen theme one time before. But I can't remember when-" He suddenly stopped talking. Revvits eyes opened wide and he lowered fearfully his voice. "I think I know it now."
"Well, whose eggs are they, dude?" Ton-Ton became pretty flustered as he observed the reaction of the Tool.
Click-Clack who had turned up meanwhile at the Trux lifted his foreleg anxiously and said trembling: "Their eggs."

The whole group turned around and followed Click-Clacks leg. First, the Trux couldn't see anything; but then they spotted a pair of glowing eyes, sparkling dangerously toward them.
The thing came nearer and Revvit was now able to see the colour of its small eyes.
He whirled around in panic and shouted: "Awloraptors!"

Finally, there's chapter two :)
I'm very busy at the moment, sorry that you had to wait so long!
