Really sorry for that huge wait.......but I promise this is indeed the end of this story! So here it is...............

"Ben, it's so good to see you. I was told you made it out but I had to see it for myself!" said Shrink in a very spastic voice.

I waved and rubbed my arm in an awkward silence.

"Yea, I'm alive. But how did you make it out?"

He smirked "Well, I was giving Vincent a taste of his own medicine, literally, when an explosion knoked me down. Vincent used that opportunity to temporarily shut me down. When I powered back up I realized that I could simply bore through the wall of the ship and jump."

I took it in "But the ship was so high in the air.....how could you possibly live through that?"

Shrink paused "Well, the ship was almost touching the ground when I jumped, so it wasn't all that far. I was lucky though....But it's so good to see you!"

He walked over and embraced me in his mechanical arms. I shivered. It was very cold.

Then it suddenly hit me.

"Where's Sam?"

I recieved some very sad glares from around the room.

Abe spoke up, "We don't have anything to bring her back Ben. And we dont know where to find that type of thing."

Only one solution came to me.

"We must ask the Raisin." We treked through the woods quickly and with no delay. We slowly descended into the Raisin's cave. And at the bottom there he sat. I walked over to him and kneeled.

He gazed down at me and said in a husky voice, "You are Ben, correct? And you have come seeking my council on the cloning device to bring back your Queen?"

I was fairly suprised, "Yes, you're exactly correct."

He seemed unsuprised, "I will tell you what you need to know," he yawned, "the device in which you seek is located in a Vykkers expirimental institute located east of Necrum, the city of the dead. You must go there quickly to bring back your Queen, but you must also go there to stop the production of an expiriment. The Glukkons have begun to make Mudokon slaves without opinions, reasoning, a mind, or a soul. These shells of lost being's have no will of their own, only the will of their master. You must stop these things before it is too late. Before their production falls the Mudokon Nation. You must........you must..... you must....." Abe interrupted.

"Save us all, Ben."

"Oh no. This is awful. But If I must, then I must."

I held the vile to my chest and clutched it tightly. A tear rolled down my cheek.

"This madness must end!" I said.

The next morning I set out for Necrum with Abe, Tim, and Joe. We had little idea of what awaited.

THE END!
