Ratchet and Kim Possible Chronicles: Another Sitch in Time-Part 30
They continued to make their way towards the maintenance sector of the space station. From there, they entered via a trash compactor. It was a truly repulsive situation at the very least. Kim: "Oh, so gross." Qwark: "Here we are. The final showdown between good and evil." Kim: "Uh…yeah…a trash compactor. Epic. I only hope that your "ingenious" plan is nowhere near as anticlimactic as this place." Rufus: "Oh, yuck!" Qwark: "Can you smell that, kids? That's drama!" Ratchet: "I smell something and it's definitely not drama." Kim: "Uh, yeah, it's…far too rancid to be drama." Qwark: "Hey, look on the bright side, you 2. At least we're not being squashed to death by the piston." Computer voice: "Trash compactor initiated."
Suddenly, the walls started to close in on them. Computer voice: "Prepare to be compacted." Ratchet: "Well, so much for that." Kim: "The walls are closing in on us! What'll we do?" Qwark: "Cover me, I'm about to do something impressive."
As the walls shifted closer towards them, Qwark began to push on both sides, stopping them completely. Qwark: "Muscles…aching! Arms…burning! Calves, looking good."
A scanner dropped down and scanned the entire place. Computer voice: "Blockage detected in trash compactor 714. Shutting down compactors."
And with that, the walls pulled back. Qwark: "I did it, guys! Wasn't that incredible?" Kim: "Hm, I have to admit, that wasn't the first time you've impressed us. (Whispering to Ratchet) Surprisingly, it wasn't even the second."
Ratchet giggled. Clank: "The troopers will be here any moment. We have to keep moving." Kim: "Yes, of course, we have to get out of this…garbage shoot…ew…" Rufus: "Oh, yeah! Yuck!"
Qwark then proceeded to kick down the door that led straight into the facility. They arrived within a hallway. Qwark: "The maintenance sector is crawling with Nefarious' goons. This might call for a little finesse." Kim: "Oh, no, please don't tell you're doing what I think you're doing."
Soon enough, 2 robots were approaching near to where they were standing. Qwark: "Watch and learn."
He walked up to the robots. Kim: "Oh, please, no, this can't be happening. Tell me this isn't happening." Ratchet: "This isn't going to end well."
Qwark then approached the robot. He spoke in a fake female voice. Qwark: "I'm Nurse Shannon and these fine young people over here are interns/engineers. Dr. Nefarious is expecting us." Kim: "This is so embarrassing…" Robot: "You are not authorized. Prepare to die, Nurse Shannon."
The robots began attacking. Kim: "Heh, so much for "escorting" us through this place." Ratchet: "What did I tell ya?"
Rufus groaned out loud in a greatly agitated manner. As the robots attacked, Qwark ran off to take cover…again. Qwark: "Dang it! How did they not fall for that?" Kim: "Uh, because it was stupid?" Qwark: "Could you be a little less blunt, young lady?" Kim: "Sorry, hard to resist."
The entire run through of the place consisted of one vicious battle after another. Nefarious' troops were on them constantly. It made the trek through the corridor seem even longer than it really was. For each conjoint section, they were met with these battles. A few time, they required Rufus's assistance with deactivating the securities. The fight through dragged on for a good chunk of time. Thankfully, they were very tenacious and they were able to fight against the robots without any major issues. The fighting kept on until they were able to reach the duct that they were looking for. From there, Clank crawled into it and made his way toward Dr. Nefarious' private quarters.
Upon arriving, he was able to spot the maniacal doctor, himself, exactly where they intended him to be. Dr. Nefarious: "Computer, take dictation." Computer voice: "Go ahead, doctor." Dr. Nefarious: "Things to do once the clock is under my control: #1-Double-cross remaining Valkyries and retire Lord Vorselon! #2-Re-establish vendetta against organic life forms! And #3-Iron socks!"
Clank managed to scan Nefarious without raising any suspicion. Clank: "Holo-imager complete. I'm returning to the rendezvous point."
Shortly afterwards, Clank reunited with the group. Qwark: "Good work, little buddy. Now to switch on the holo-guise."
He attempted to activate it, but for some reason, it wasn't working. He made many attempts to turn it on, but still, nothing. Qwark: "Darn it! Why do these things not work when you need them to?"
Just then, they heard the chime of the Kimmunicator. Qwark: "Eh…what's that noise?"
They looked towards the device on Kim's chest as it was blinking. Kim tapped on it once. A holographic image of Wade was projected from it. Wade: "Perhaps you should let me handle this one, guys."
With a few clicks of his keyboard, a very realistic holographic image of Dr. Nefarious appeared before them. Kim: "Whoa." Clank: "Oh, my." Ratchet: "Nice going, Wade." Qwark: "Ah! It's Dr. Nefarious!"
He pointed his blaster at the holographic image. Wade: "Relax, Qwark. It's just an authentic-looking image of him. Pretty cool, huh?" Ratchet: "I'll say, it looks so real."
Rufus giggled then gave out 2 thumbs up. Rufus: "Cool." Ratchet: "Aright, let's do this, you guys."
They made their way towards an elevator. There, they utilized the hologram to summon the elevator and went into it. It took them all the way to the control hub at the top floor of the station. From there, they sent out the hologram as a diversion while they snuck in. The hologram then approached a somewhat familiar Terachnoid. It was Pollyx. Kim: "What? Pollyx? I don't believe this!"
Pollyx soon turned around and noticed the image. He had easily mistaken it for his superior. Pollyx: "Dr. Nefarious! I didn't expect to see you here so soon. What can I do for you, sir?" Dr. Nefarious: "What is the status report of the master plan?" Pollyx: "Well, the Hypernova Defence Laser is operational, the fleet has been dispatched and the Orvus Chamber is being analyzed thoroughly. Everything is primed and ready for you to utilize the clock for your own personal use." Dr. Nefarious: "Excellent. There's just 1 problem: I'm not really Dr. Nefarious…"
The hologram then converted itself into a projected image of Wade. Wade: "I'm Wade, a young super genius from the planet Earth who works for the famed hero, Kim Possible." Pollyx: "Eh! Wha-!?"
Soon enough, Qwark, Ratchet, Kim and Clank emerged directly near Wade's projected image. Each of them had conceited smiles on their faces. Kim: "Hello again, Pollyx. Remember us?" Pollyx: "Ah! It's you guys!" Ratchet: "That's right! Prepare to get seriously messed up!"
And with that, they began wrecking havoc on the entire chamber. Robots were dispatched to put a stop to it and eradicate the group, but they were very formidable fighters as always, so it was to no avail. They destroyed a lot of the machinery within the entire place. Rufus did a lot of messing around with much of the machinery from the inside. Their pandemonium, however, had caused them to be locked in. From that, Kim tapped on the device on her chest. Kim: "Wade, can you deactivate the security of this place?" Wade: "Give me one second…there!"
The security was shut off. Kim: "Great job, Wade!" Ratchet: "Let's go!"
They ran back towards the elevator and descended back towards the lower levels. Qwark: "You know, often times when I say this, it ends in catastrophe, but what the hey? Mission accomplished."
