Unknown place

somewhere in the Bogon Galaxy

"...due to many of the historical achievements achieved by these well known historians and archaeologists, we will forever be craving for whatever knowledge the past may hold for our future..."

Click.

There was a small pause after the Holo-vision was turn off. The room was plunged into mid darkness, and there was a small hum that was heard throughout the area.

A sigh soon came from a dark figure sitting on the couch, followed by a scream and something being thrown at the screen. The small noises of glass falling down and another sigh was heard after.

"Why..." the figure said in desperation, "why won't these...these stupid historical societies ever accept my papers.. .?"

No one answered his question. But he didn't seem to care.

"I should be having my name on those stupid medals...the documentaries and whatever fancy crap the big shots get...that's not fair!"

There was some shuffling of papers, before the figure with its brown fingers picked up a data pad hidden under the rubble and scrolled over to a section that read 'entry 128'.

"Rejection...on the count of validation...credibility ..."

His voice became louder, angrier as he spoke.

"...a novice with no such basis for this claim...a complete FAILURE!"

He screamed out a curse.

On a desk, papers and books, blueprints and parts were thrown all over as the figure, in a fit of rage, went on searching for something. After a few minutes of incessant muttering and more cursing, he paused and slowly pulled out a wrinkled piece of paper, old and yellow. He held it up to his face, rubbing a part where a planet was and some coordinates were written with black ink.

"I'll show them all...just wait..."

The figure smiled and let out a booming laugh.

Author's Note:

Hello! This is AUselessMicroFluff here, writing a new story. This right here is just a short prologue, straight to the point (think of it as just an opening to a game...) It may not surmount to much now, but I promise (depends) that it will start to develop and get better when you begin to read the next chapters.

Overall, This story might be slightly longer than Obsidian Mind (the first part of the story), will have references and hopefully not as confusing...the last one was maybe a tad bit, since I am a confusing person. But my confusion worked because it's all pieced together in the end. It's to make you fit into the shoes of the protagonist, too feel his confusion throughout the words.

I pray it doesn't confuse people until I need them to be confused. But I know it will make some of you like that. So here's a secret: if you want to understand this one, you'll have to read it more thoroughly -between the lines. I guarantee that this will make you do that, and only then will you see the pieces fitting. Or at least I think you will. I dunno. Feelings are like that, especially ones that will be on display with verbal exchanges.

There will also be some swearing, since hey, Ratchet does seem like the type who'd curse if he was stuck in a certain situation or is angry (hell knows he would have cursed in the games, if there wasn't anyone else or something happening that censored him out, most notably in Ratchet: Deadlocked.)

Hopefully you read Obsidian Mind before this one. Now go on to the next chapter!
