The Scrap Mechanic

Chapter 3: The spot to settle down

I was driving around the outer edge of the map along the fenced out area to society. It was only me. I was trying to figure out where I should start, should I be on the outside? Or in the forest. I keep wandering around like the wanderer from fallout 4. And I come across one of those machines. I figured I could somehow rewire it. Or reprogram it. I was coming up on the red giant. It looked like a normal tractor, but it had secrets inside of it. I then got behind as it was patrolling the fence. And I got out my connecter. I had to get on it in order to start the rewiring or reprogramming in order to get it on my side. I kept the pedal to the medal and I just had enough room to jump on.

I keep my hammer on the gas while I got onto the duck dashboard. And I took a leap of faith. I soar through the air majestically like an eagle, piloting a blimp. And I land so roughly I nearly fell off over the side. And that is when things got a little tough between me and the autonomous robot.

The tractor took notice of me, and tried to use its farming tools to knock me off. It didn't succeed but a scythe was about to hit me. I tried to climb up the side. Then it took a turn, and my grip failed and I fell off. But I got s hold of the back of it. And climbed up the chassis. Then, I got to the head and took out my wiring tool.

I got the mechanical mayhem over to the outer rim of the game to the fence. Then I finally realized, where is my first car? It had the hammer on the pedal so it could keep moving while I got on the tractor...well then.

Mystery Guy: So you lost your car?

Me: So you ask so many questions that I already explained in the story?

Mystery Guy: What?

Me: So far every time you interrupt my story you ask a question, but I already explained it. You just asked if I lost my car when I specifically said that I kept the hammer on to keep it moving as I jumped on to the tractor.

Mystery Guy: Well...I...I am listening.

Me: One time you asked if a grid really came out of my backpack after not even a minute later.

Mystery Guy: Well, I'm quizzical.

Me: eh heh...

Now with no car, first one at that, I need to build another car, but this one faster, and can fly, so I can get to places quicker. So I figured make a rocket car. I fell from the highest point in the game, and I included no damage into the creative mode system. So if things go south, then it won't matter for my safety...

I made a simple base. About 6x11x2. And I put two controllers and an engine in the back of my seat along with a couple of switches. I made the car self flippable buy with the wheels themselves instead of a separate thing. I added thrusters to all sides giving me a lot of power. Maybe not flying, but it will make do. The back wheels are monster truck ones. And they flip from horizontal to vertical with a flick of a switch. The front wheels are close to the center. Then when flipped, the entire car turns into a dragster. I put the engine in the front instead to make it more like a hot rod. This is it. I will find the other car, but for now. This is it.

Mystery Guy: A hot rod huh? I guess you wish you could do this in real life. Huh?

Me: Kinda, but now it's all just a game. It all comes out to just a game.

Mystery Guy: I see.

Me: Lets just finish this part of the story, it's starting to get late.

I got into the new car I have created. The long slanted vehicle that will be a stable and fast and maneuverable. I hopped into the seat and and looked around, avoiding tractors and looking for a nice spot to settle down. I was thinking in a hug ditch. But that only gives me so much space. Maybe a higher view point? So I found my way towards a mountain and see how my vehicle does getting up the different slopes. I made it to the top of the mountain but it didn't have much space. Did I just follow a path that led me no where? Then the path led me to a bit of a dip or hill and led to a patch of dirt that was a perfect spot to start a house...
