The journey to repair Sprocket's wings takes Catnap and Dogday into the deepest, darkest parts of the factory. Here, the walls seem to close in, and the air is thick with the smell of rust and decay. It's a place where no light reaches, and even the machines seem to have long since stopped functioning."This place feels... wrong," Dogday says, his ears pinned back, his usual carefree attitude replaced by a deep sense of unease.Catnap nods, his fur standing on edge. "We have to keep going. We promised Sprocket we'd help him."As they venture further, they come across ancient machines covered in thick layers of dust. Some of them still hum with a faint, eerie power, their gears turning slowly as if they haven't quite given up yet. Dogday sniffs one of the machines and lets out a low growl. "I don't like this."Suddenly, a loud clang echoes through the dark, making both of them jump. Something is moving in the shadows—something big.Before they can react, a massive mechanical claw swings down from the ceiling, narrowly missing Dogday. "Run!" Catnap shouts, his voice sharp with urgency.They dart through the narrow corridors, dodging the swinging claws and whirring blades that seem to come alive around them. The factory, once a place of comfort and adventure, now feels like a giant, menacing beast, determined to trap them in its belly.Panting and exhausted, they finally collapse in a small, hidden alcove, safe from the danger. Dogday's heart is racing, and his fur is damp with sweat. "That... was close."Catnap, ever the strategist, peeks out from their hiding spot. "We need to find another way. We can't keep running blindly."
