Talwyn looked around the vast scenery. Judging only from her view inside the ship, she would have thought the desert to be sweltering, warm at the least, but apparently it was quite the contrary.
Though it was twilight. Deserts usually drop to below zero at night; her father taught her that.
She hugged herself tight as her teeth continued to chatter.
"Er... Tal?"
She looked down to Clank who seemed a bit awkward calling her by her first name; in Polaris he had always referred to her as 'Miss. Apogee'.
"You seem cold, do you have anything extra you can put on in your ship?"
She thought for a second.
"No, I don't. But once we get walking it'll be fine. What way do you want to go?"
The small bot turned 360 degree's, taking in his surroundings.
"The area seems deserted; you and the Captain are the only organic life forms I am sensing. But I am almost certain this is where Ratchet and I were."
He turned away again.
"I say we go this way."
He said pointing straight ahead.
Talwyn smiled.
"Then that way it is"
Qwark was being uncharacteristically quiet. Clank didn't know if he should fall behind and see if he was okay or just let it pass.
He decided to fall back.
He slowed his pace so that Qwark would unknowingly catch up with him.
It didn't take long before the two were side by side.
"Captain? Are you alright?"
Qwark let out a small yelp.
"Oh, erm, Clank! I didn't know you were there!"
The spandex clad man quickly picked up his cocky farce...
"But I, Captain Copernicus Qwark, am always alright!"
And failed miserably.
"What you did today was a good thing, Captain. The Qwark I knew four years ago would have never done that."
It was silent for a while.
"I am proud of you."
Clank averted his attention to the road ahead.
There was a rather large building in the distance.
The small bot picked up the pace to catch up with Tal who had stopped dead in her tracks.
"Tal! I am certain that this is Dr. Nefarious's base!"
As he got closer, he could see over the small hill Tal was standing on.
"Clank... You can fight, right?"
Nefarious's base wasn't the only thing in the distance...
A/N: Hey there!
