OOC: That's why I said it!
IC: Slash flew around above the plains of Oddworld. Nothing was visible in the distance for a long time. He searched and searched...he then finally spotted something. Smoke came up. Then he heard a loud noise, and looked down to see a Glukkon faced train rocket past. "This must be the Feeco Depot it talked about" thought Slash, thinking of his old boss. he flew on over to it.
Inside, few Oddworldians paid him much attention, to busy to catch their trains. Some other Sligs gave him odd looks, since he was carrying a gun as opposed to grenades and having the odd flying gear. He ignored them and read some notices. He found one that seemed interesting, mentioning some Rupturefarms looking for employees. He then heard a Sligs voice declaring "Train to Rupturefarms, leaving in 5 minutes". He better find the train quick.
He searched the complex, and eventually found a sign pointing to a train saying "Rupturefarms". He hadn't bought a ticket, didn't really know how, and didn't have the time. The sneakily flew between two carriages and held on as the train lurched out of the station.
------------------------------
After a few hours, Slash felt the train slowing. he quickly flew away and toward the factory. He noticed much of it seemed damaged and in disrepair, then remembering a radio article saying some Mudokon terrorist had destroyed it. he then looked down and saw a few people running around. he flew down and said to one "Hey, do you know where new employees go to register?" The guy merely made a sort howling noise. He asked again, and got the same answer, before it ran off and started eating some corpse. "Huh?" Slash thought "Could this really be what a Scrab is supposed to look like naturally? But what is it doing here, in a factory, running wild? It's an animal..." Confused, he flew off toward what looked like a more improved part of the factory above the animals.
He looked around the factory, trying to avoid the others. He didn't want to look like some lost idiot before being employed, damnit...after a while, he heard a noise, like a rabble, before seeing a Glukkon in a green suit witht he RF logo on it...he had a massive cigar. Slash guessed that this must be the big boss, based on what knowledge he had. Eager to start work, he flew over to the Glukkon and said "Hey, uh, uh, uh..." he stuttered a bit, before regaining his composure "Hey, I was thinking of getting a job here, I found a notice at Feeco. Maybe as a guard...oh, sorry!" he said quickly, realising he had floated too close to the Glukkon and went back a little, careful not to hit anyone behind him. He waitedd eagerly for a positive reply, but secretly worried the Glukkon would be angry at his sudden appearence...
