"Must get to the outer world must hurry or Slag will find me! But the hole is near the center of the Great Hub 900 miles through this industrial maze. That way up on a different level." As he pointed down the corridor. A row of dim lights shined down an almost endless looking corridor with junk piles and pipeing makeing up the walls. "But its not on this level. Its on a higher level and I know its near the Central Plexis. "The great Furnace of the Hub where we are taken to be melted into steel and fed to the crunchers."

"Wow that is a problem. I don't recall ever being on this level."

22 was cerious.

"Who is Slag?" said 22.

"Its a long story that made me end up into this exile from the rest of you. It started months ago. I was scavanging in the piles in the upper levels of this Great Hub when I heard strange talks about me from a group of Morphions. BZZZZZZZZZK! Slag was among them whome were talking. They mentioned my name 00 as they laughed. And then.....then they mention something about a weapon. then I was discovered and ever since I am being hunted. Hunted for their plans. In the upper junk levels in a deep cornor hidden under the dim light nearly behind a huge pile of junk I saw a hole with light filtering through. I looked through this hole and I saw amazeing things. A world opened up to my metal eyes. And the lifeform half of me was willing to do anything to get out. And I am going to get out. You may follow me if u must but I can't promise anything that we will be safe. And I am glad to have a friend with me on this journey. I hope we could meet other Klinks aswell. I want to deliver us out of this place. And now I have the chance."

Suddenly a scraching sound behind the wall was heard when suddenly a cruncher broke through the wall.

"Well thats an intresting story you got there 00."

"Shhhhhh! listen do you here that?"

"What is it?"

"RUN!" yelled 00 as the Cruncher came out of the wall and and almost grabed at both of them.

"00 wait ill blast him!"

"Theres no time for that 22. move!" yelled 00

00 and 22 were running through the corridor trying to get away but the cruncher was gaining up on them. Then 22 had an idea as he yelled at 00.

"00 grab hold of me I have wheels.!"

00 grabed hold of him as 22 was quickly rolling down the corridor. But the cruncher was still gaining up on them as it was trying to reach for 00 klinging to 22.

Then suddenly a malfunction in 22's wheel system occured as they came to a halt in the corridor.

"Whats this all about 22!" yelled 00

"I dunno but that cruncher is hungry!"

the cruncher was just about to slash the two Klinks as 22 was trying to reprogram his wheel system through his main frame.

"Hold on 00 I am working on the problem." said 22.

"Um 22 hurry up!" replied 00 as the cruncher was slobering on 00's matallic frame.

"I got it!" yelled 22.

"Good lets get out of here!" yelled 00 as he struggled.

"Wha.... whats going on? lets get rolling!"

"I am trying 00 I am trying!"

Knowing that all Klinks who have a set of wheels also have an emergancy mini rocket system that folds and is connected to the wheels 00 yelled out to 22.

"Oh odd dammit fire the rockets!" yelled 00.

Suddenly the two klinks were threshed down the corridor with awesome force that they were traveling at incredible speeds. They were now far away from the cruncher as they began to slow down to a halt. They were safe.

00 got off 22's wheel pad and thanked him.

"Thanks 22 that was a close call. Lets get off this level too dangerous! I think we should find another elevtor shaft to get to the next level. We got to go up said 00."

"I agree!" replied 22.

Then as they went through a small opening in the walls of this corridor they entered into an almost massive opened area almost like a valley only indoors. great factory noises were heard throughout this vista. Below was a vast laberinth of pipes and junk piles. And there were others working in the piles.

"Whoa we got to cross this?" said 22."

"This must be this levels manufacturing wing. Lets hope we can find the elevator unoticed" said 00.
