"whoa, this is amazing" I say as I stare into the abyss that is space. All the stars reflect in my eyes. it's beautiful. I look back at the planet that I've been stuck on.
I sit back up in my seat "so where are we going
"metropolis, Kurwan"
"ok, I have no idea where that is but ok"
A few hours later
We land on the busy streets that is metropolis. Sandor tells me to cover my ears, so I do with a huge hood. I asked why, he told me we can draw attention to ourselves Sandor pulls out a device out from his pocket. "He should be this way"
But I ignore him. I just look at everything, the highways and byways, the people I keep bumping into, the huge buildings. Sandor don't look to impressed. I know he just want to get out the busy streets, he doesn't want to be seen. I just go with it. Tachyon isn't even in this Galaxy.
We make it to a large apartment. "is this it?" I ask. Sandor nods. Lucky, look at the life he lives, living in a huge penthouse while we live on a empty planet.
Sandor stops in front of the building "wait here, don't get into trouble, stay out of-"
"sight I know, I'll be fine" Sandor walks inside.
I lean n the building, still observing everything. I take my bag off of my back and sit down. I grab out a note pad a pencil, then I draw. I draw everything I see, I might not see this again for a long time, so I better have a reminder.
I Look back up at everyone walking past me, I draw them. I look at the cars above me, I draw them. I turn my head to See a figure, looking at me, I don't draw that.
I stare at it for a little while, Until I shout "hey!" This makes the figure scared and begins to run. But when their running off I see a golden tail. My instincts kick in and before I realize what I'm doing, I'm chasing the guy.
I grab my Blaster from my belt and begin shooting. I get close enough that I see two glowing green eye's staring back at me, I scream and stop running. it's a robot, wait it's not any robot, it's the same one that was standing next to ratchet, in that news article.
"Ratchet?" I scream. This makes the figure stop. "your Ratchet and Clank" He turns around to face me. It's him. My face lights up. Clank jumps off Ratchet's back and walks towards me. I kneel down to him, ratchet doesn't move. "that is us" clank say's with a smile.
"who are you?" Ratchet asks. I realize that my hood is still on. I stand up and take it off. "I'm Lorraine"
I watch Ratchet gob smacked face when he see's I'm a Lombax.
I explain my situation to the pair. Ratchet seems pretty ok with it all. I even had to tell him what happened to his parents, or that they might still be alive. I'm amazed on how well he took it. He tells me about how life treated him, and how he meet Clank.
"so you said you were with someone" Ratchet say's
"yeah i'm here with....... Sandor" Oh my god, I completely forgot about Sandor. "shit shit shit"
"ahhhh, is everything ok?" Ratchet asks
"come on" I say "we need to find Sandor" I turn around and run into someone that was directly behind me "found him" clank says
Sandor helps me up and starts getting crazy mad. "why did you run off?"
"because I've found-"
"I can see that, Lorraine. I told you to stay put"
"I did until I spotted the reason we're here"
Sandor looks over at Ratchet. "we better go, You two coming?"
Ratchet nods. Clank jumps on his back and they follow us to our ship.
You know, seeing these two here with us, It actually makes me think that for the first time, I fell like we can win this thing.
