3: Al's And Two New Weapons

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

The ship they were in flew through face at incredibly fast speeds, they soon had came upon Metropolis and the ship had landed and they all got out.

"This place looks like it was almost over taken by nature a bit" Spike said as he observed the place and saw all the nature around it.

"Yes, this place is very old, but it is still running strong" Clank said as he looked around as well, they went forward for a few until coming upon another split path.

"I think i see Al's ahead of the right path Lets head down that one first" Ratchet suggested, but before they did they bought a blaster gun at a vender for them to use, and had now purchased a small gun that could be used for ranged attacks when needed at the right time..

"Sweet!" Ratchet said as he held out the gun and Spike liked the looks of it.

"Hope i get something like that soon." Spike said hopefully as all these weapons were extremely cool just from the looks

"Don't worry buddy, i'm sure Al will have something for us, let's get going" Ratchet said as they went through the path leading to Al's and hoped something could be there for them.

They continued to move on for a while, they fought off some robo dogs and more robots, they eventually got to a bridge and a helicopter tried to shoot them down, but ratchet was able to shoot it down.
"Geez, overkill much?" Spike asked shocked at how much they are trying to stop them

"These guys will stop at nothing until they've taken care of threats to their plans" Clank told him

"If they see us as a threat then we can make it through this" Ratchet said with confidence as they continued.

They fought their way through more robots and guards before they finally made it to Al's shop and they entered
"That must be Al" Spike said as they walked up to him.

"Ratchet that's the man on the info bot remember? He knows Captain Qwark!" Clank said excitedly

"Hey your that robot guy right?" Ratchet asked.

"No actually i build robots, i myself am not a robot guy per say." Al said chuckling a little and Clank and Spike laughed a little as well.

"Nerd" Ratchet whispered to them while Clank didn't agree with it.

"I like him." Clank replied as he found that joke pretty funny.

"Yeah i like him too." Spike said as well.

"So now that we've cleared that up, what can i do for you?" Al asked, Clank was about to step up but Spike spoke first to properly inform him of what's
"We're looking for Captain Qwark, we saw that ad for this place and was hoping you'd know where to find him" Spike told him and Clank nodded, Al then got a closer look at Spike.

"Say, what kind of creature are you? I've never seen something like you except in fiction" Al said curiously

"I am a dragon.." Spike said before he was interrupted by Al's immediate fascination with him.

"A Dragon?! Like the fire breathing kind?!" Al asked with surprise, and to prove it to him, Spike then blew a stream of green fire out the exit and he looked at him in awe

"You really are! Well all i can tell you is that i haven't seen him since we shot that video weeks ago" Al said still looking a bit excited, but that news proved that Qwark likely wasn't here, and they'll need to find him somewhere else.

"Told you it was a bit since that ad was taken" Spike said to the others who were just as disappointed about it.

But after thinking over it, Spike got an idea and did wonder if he has anything that could help.
"Hey you happen to have anything i could use to help my friends?" Spike asked while looking at him, and Al did remember something that could be of use to them if they work.

"Actually i might have a few things that could help you" Al Said as he grabbed Spike and brought him over the counter which caught him off guard.

"Hey!" Spike said and the others looked confused on what he was doing.

Al brought him over the counter so he could see what he had found, and soon enough, Al then opened a box and tossed out some old stuff to find what he's looking for.
"Aha here it is! I found these a while ago, i thought it could be sold for a high price but for you it's on the house." Al said as he handed Spike two pieces of metal of some kind.

"What is this?" Spike asked as he grabbed them, but as soon as he did, the pieces suddenly began to glow, just then a green blade of plasma energy shot out of them making them two 6 foot swords like a katana shocking all of them,

"Whoa! I didn't know it could do that! It's like they reacted to you specifically!" Al said while looking amazed with how they suddenly, Spike swung the sword
around like they were a really light stick with both his hands which was easy to handle. he then saw a box and Al nodded as he wanted to see how it works, Spike then slashed at the box and it completely got cut in half making them look even more surprised.

"That is awesome! May i try?" Ratchet asked, Spike nodded and gave ratchet the blades, but as soon as they were in Ratchet's hands they deactivated much to their confusion

"What the?" Ratchet said confused trying to get it to activate again. But after multiple tries, Clank saw that they don't work for him, and only worked when Spike had them

"It seems these blades can only work for Spike." Clank said as he observed the Blades deactivation.

Ratchet gave it back to Spike and it activated once again making Ratchet a little jealous but he got over it as he also has some cool weapons, and Spike was really fascinated with how
"It seems so, maybe they were left for me by someone but who?" Spike asked as he put the blades on his waist on both the right and left and it materialized a belt to be held, Al then said something else

"I have one more thing for you come with me Mr?" Al asked wanting to know his name

"Spike" He answered for him

"Spike! Please come with me i got one more thing for you." Al told him, Spike and Al went into his workshop

"Get on the table please" Al said making Spike a little confused

"Okay? Why though?" Spike said as he got on it, Al then had spike on his belly and he felt Al placing something on his back that could help him out greatly.

"What are you doing?!" Spike asked a little upset at what he was doing, but after a few more seconds, Al finally

"A few more tweaks and done!" Al said as he let Spike up, he got out a mirror and saw Spike had Robotic wings!

"Whoa!" Spike said as he tried them out, him leaning up had the thrusters ignite they lasted a few moments before turning off and Spike landed on the ground.

"This is awesome! Think you could hook my robot friend Clank up with the same thing?" Spike asked.

"Sure thing, free of charge for you this time!" Al said as they walked out, Spike showed them his new robot wings which caught them by surprise.

"Whoa! that's awesome dude!" Ratchet said amazed seeing his new gadgets.

"Thanks! He said he can give Clank a pair too for free!" Spike said with an amazed look while Clank was just as eager to
"I would very much like an upgrade as well" Clank said exited.

"Sure thing little guy!" Al said before he grabbed him and installed a pair of wings on him as well that looked just as cool as Spike's.

"Ratchet, are we cool now?" Clank asked curiously while he moved them around a bit, and already felt adjusted to them while Ratchet chuckled seeing this from them.

"Oh yeah, i got my weapons, you got two swords and those wings! Your the man guys!" Ratchet replied with a casual look while Spike and Clank landed down

"Thank you for everything AL! we'll be sure to promote this place!" Spike said as they left the place from the nearest door that lead them through the city some more.

"Feel free to stop by anytime! I'd like to see you again sometime!" Al waved and they nodded in agreement as it didn't sound too bad at all.

"We will!" Ratchet said as they left the place to keep moving on, They were all just outside the workshop walking away, and as Spike looked at his new weapons, he was extremely fascinated with them, and was left wondering what else could be done with these things..

"So who do you think left you those blades? And do we even know if they were meant for you?" Ratchet asked as this was a interesting discovery for all of them, and Spike couldn't really find any ideas on how to answer it given they don't know anything about these things.

"I don't know, but let's hope we find out more about these things in the future. But for now, let's see what else this city has that we could use." Spike said as they continued through the place, and tried seeing if there's anything interesting to find here.
