Previously

   Beside Zero they didn't saw me looking at them or they didn't care. Claptrap was telling us something important when Bullymong come from the ceiling, ripped robot's eye and go the same way he came. Now we have to get that eye back and head to Sanctuary.

Now

    Claptrap started to wheel forward and fall off the stage. On the back of the stage is a big metal fireplace.

   "The gun. The gun in the cabinet." Says the robot, as he wheels aimlessly. He starts to bump in different furniture.

   Axton walks up to the closed on the right of the stage. There is a piece of paper with written "Pis Off". The rest of the Vault Hunters moved to the left side to find that cabinet. They started to collect money from cases and lockers. Maya took money from the card table. On that table where different types of claptraps. I opened doors to some sort of weird storage room. I found some money and healing syringe.

   I turned around and said, "Hey I found some syringe."

   Zero and Salvador found cabinet next to some sleeping area made of metal and some pillows. There are two beds. Next to the first bed is a small table with a lamp and some dead plants in the worn out tire. Maya and Axton took syringes from me. Then walk to Zero and Salvador for some guns. From what I saw it where Dhal Basic Repeaters.

   "You don't take the guns?" Asked us, Siren.

   "Well.. there were only four guns. Besides I have my two repeater pistols. Gaige and Krieg look like they have guns for their own too." I replied honestly. Gaige only nodded her head. Krieg was only looking around.

   Before anyone said anything else Angel Started to talk trough ECHO communicator.

   "Once upon a time, four Vault Hunters changed Pandore forever. But their time has passed -- thanks to Handsome Jack Pandora needs new heroes. I know that heroes are you."

   Just as the connection ended Claptrap started talking again. Telling us that he was waiting for Vault Hunters and he called us his "Fearsome minions". After this, he goes through small dog doors with painted claptrap on it. Then other doors opened for us to go. Everyone go forward to the next room. There where two desks on the left and Fast travel station on the right. Few Hyperion Ammo Crates where placed on the snow. I opened one and took the pistol ammo. The robot had open the outside doors.

   "Onward, seeing-eye minion! Let me know if I'm gonna run into anything!" After that, he wheeled forward from the doors and on to the snowed land.

   There are some like plane parts stick out of the snow. As we come upon more Hyperion Ammo Crates Angel Echo us again.

   "Stick close to the robot -- he will help you get off this glacier, and into the city of Sanctuary. That is the only place you will be safe."

   After that, we took more ammo and headed to the path on our right. Claptrap just falls down again and said that he hears Bullymongs. Then he wheeled in our direction. As he said monsters started to show from the mountain ahead. Everyone took the guns. I reloaded my Yin&Yang and aimed at Bullymongs heads. Gaige took some sort of Submachine Gun that I never saw before. Krieg took his Buzz Axe and just run on the monsters. Axton, Maya, Salvadore, and Zero shoot another two coming from the ice tunnel. We all go through it and follow the robot to the cliff. Claptrap bump on some machine that looks like Fast travel station. It activated as we walked near it. Axton and Salvadore grabbed some more ammo.

   Angel spoke again "You will need that funny little robot's help to reach Sanctuary, the last bastion of the resistance against Jack, and the only place you will be truly safe. Get to Sanctuary."

   Before I could take the robot he fell off the cliff and stuck in the snow. "Just great" I mumble under my breath. Kreig and Axton where the first one to go down. Psycho go the same way as Claptrap. Next was Salvadore, Maya, me, Gaige, and Zero. Kreig was already killing Bullymongs as we get down and helped him and Axton. Bullets and shouts everywhere. It feels nice this kind of adrenaline rush. I moved to Claptrap while shooting monsters. As everything dyes, I dig little robot from snow.

  "Are you ok there bud?"

  "Yes, minion I am okay."

   Then I took some ammo along others. Then I hear the voice that I knew we will hear. In my Echo communicator was the Handsome Fucking Jack. His voice was pleasant even if the owner was an ass.

   "Hey, kiddos. Jack here -- President of Hyperion. Lemme explain how thing work here: Vault Hunters shows up, Vault Hunters looks for the new Vault, Vault Hunters get killed, By me. Seeing the problem here? You're still alive. So if you could do me a favor and off yourself, that be great. Thanks, pumpkin."

   Somehow I already didn't like those nicknames. By the look on other faces, they didn't like it too. Claptrap was wheeling in some metal container. We come upon ice path going up with many Bullymong holes.

   "Oh! My eye just switched back on!"Sayed exited CL4P-TP unit" I see taught-looking minion and incredibly handsome robot. Which means that whoever has my eye... is very close."

   As that was said Very big Bullymong shows up. It throws the broken vehicle as it jumps down on us. Everyone takes positions and aims. The moment we started shooting Knuckle Dragger throws ice blocks in us. I was aiming in the head while avoiding getting hit by ice. One moment Bullymong jumps on some building, and then three smaller monsters come to attack us. All this time the robot was wheeling aimlessly all around the place. Me, Maya and Salvadore took care of the small monster, while rest was still shooting Boss monster. Then everyone took care of the Knuckle Dragger. I think we leveled up because I felt stronger.

   "Woohoo! If you would retrieve my eye for me. Oh and I apologize for saying "wall sphincters" I say that a lot when I am frightened." Axton was the one to take the eye "Got my eye? Great! Now we just gotta find someone to put it back into me." I didn't listen to the rest of his speech. I took some money and go after the robot. As everyone was done with gathering loot we head after Claptrap to the building on the mountain. The robot could not open the doors cause of missing eye. CLP wanted to give up, but as always Angel comes with help. 

   "Lemme get that for ya. Executing phase shift." And the doors opened. "You're welcome. Perks of being an Artificial Intelligence. I'm networked into almost everything on this planet. Its a long way to Sanctuary -- please take whatever you need for the journey ahead."

   We started to come into the armory. I was the first one to open Weapon chest and took Jacobs shotgun. It's better than only repeater pistols for the beginning. Salvador took another gun. From what I saw it was a combat rifle. Then we took the money and more ammo.

   "Come, minion! Andiamo!" Gaige goes to Claptrap and he opened the door to Southen Shelf. I wonder what this journey will be like. Off to the bandits.
