Stomping Away

During their time in the forest, Clank learnt a lot from the forest folk. Robyn had been particular helpful with her by teaching Clank how to dash. Clank lost the weight she had gained during her captivity at colosseum. She was training everyday , practising her aim with a bow and although she didn’t like the implications of hurting anyone by dashing at them with a weapon. She found it a useful skill to have nonetheless. A Druid recognised her kind heart and offered an enlightenment towards the healing spirit.


Mega on the other hand became frustrated at their situation. He grew bored of the forest and its tree hugging caretakers. He had an urge to smash. It was like it was written in his code. His two huge mace-like fists thirsted for action. He had helped Clank out of bad situations a few times and yet he felt that her determination in learning took priority over their friendship. He didn’t understand why they were still here. If they were being hunted, there was no sign of it.


“I want to leave.” Mega spoke plainly and bluntly.


“But why? We spoke about this. We have no where to go back in the city.” Clank spoke with defiance.


“There’s nothing for me here.” Mega did try to learn a few things but he felt his body was not programmed in that way


“I’m here. I’m learning so that I can pull my own weight. So that you don’t have to defend me all the time.” Clank persisted.


“But that is what gave me purpose. Right now, I feel like a rock in the river. The water is rushing right past me and ignoring me. I really can’t stand this.” Mega stomps away.


Clank watched her friend stomp. She wondered where he would go.
