Skylanders Quest For The Core

Ch 20 Going for the goo

(Spyro's point of view)
When Boomer's ship landed, the team made their way off of the ship, with Spyro and Flameslinger still struggling to carry the big gear. But this time, Boomer was nice enough to carry it for them, with one arm he lifted the gear from the two tired heroes. "The golden gear! Plucked from the machinery of the universe, it drives everything that is tech in our world!" Eon exclaimed. The gear made it's way underneath the stone circle and formed smaller golden cogs on the vines, above, the stone circle lifted itself a bit more and golden cogs stuck out of it.

Boomer was talking to the general on his communicator before turning to face the team again. "General robot has gotten word that the troll army has quite suddenly advanced it's weaponry. All he's heard is that they're using some kind of green goo..." He began. "Green primordial goo!" Hugo shouted, "the mega fuel for all tech machines! If they've discovered how to use it, the mabu defense force doesn't stand much of a chance!" "This is serious!" Boomer said, "come on cadets! We have to stop them from using any more!" The team nodded and followed Boomer to his ship. "Don't forget to bring some back for the core! It's essential for harnessing the tech source!" Hugo yelled. "Don't worry, we've got it!" Spyro yelled back.

Using what general robot had learned from his spies, Boomer landed his ship not too far from a big refinery. "I'm starting to remember Gill beach all over again!" Spyro said as the ship landed. "Okay, we need at least one barrel of the stuff before we destroy this place," Boomer explained, "I'll create a distraction, you all go in and gather some. When you all come out, I'll throw some dynamite into that smokestack up there," he explained, pointing towards the top of the building.

"Agreed!" Said Spyro, he motioned for his friends to follow him and they got into position as they waited for Boomer's distraction. All of a sudden, Spyro noticed Boomer pretending to March with the rest of the trolls, before jumping around and throwing explosives everywhere. While the stupid Kaos trolls went out to attack him, Spyro and Cynder flew their friends into the refinery.

Some troops were left to protect the place, but they were too easy to deal with. As Spyro and the others walked through the factory, they noticed lots of different war machines and robots being built on the conveyor belts. One looked like a big mech with spiky knuckles and huge stomping feet. One of the robots looked like a replacement for drow troops, but there was a note written on it saying it was defective and the project aught to be scrapped.

Finally after what seemed like ages, the group found what they came for. A large room lay before them, filled with nothing but barrels. Flameslinger lifted the lid from one of them to reveal a glowing green slime, he gave a thumbs up, and picked up the barrel.

Of course, it wasn't going to be that easy, cause as soon as they left the storage room, one of the big robots began to come to life. Spyro charged at the metal behemoth with all his might, but all he got was a massive headache. "His armor looks too tough, are there any ideas?" Spyro asked. The robot began shooting at them, Flameslinger dropped his barrel and jumped into action. The team struggled to fight him with his tough armor, but as the battle continued, Spyro noticed a weak spot on his head, but it needed alot of force to damage it. "Stand back guys! Spyro yelled, he soared as high up into the air as he could, and dove bombed head first towards the weak spot. The robot's head caved in and it laid dormant on the floor. The team wasted no time rushing for a fresh barrel of green goo and meeting up with Boomer. As they flew over head in Boomer's ship, he handed Spyro a big black bomb. "You know what to do with it," he said. Spyro nodded and dropped the bomb down the smokestack as they flew past it one last time. The following explosion was almost as big as when the core blew up.

Deep within the corruption storm, Kaos laughed. "What do you have up your sleeve this time sir?" His Butler questioned. "We have the eternal tech source! And I'm going to use it to power the instrument of doom meant for destroying those fools!" He explained. He walked up to a big computer screen, and tapped a button. "Sending recorded data to project Fool destroyer" the computer stated. It downloaded files from a giant battle bot to another robot as Kaos laughed hysterically.
