April, 2022

The game room was lit up. The flatscreen TV was on, he was playing Ratchet And Clank; Rift Apart. Then, One of his friends at PlayStation texted him.
Nate

Hey, wanna have a match on CoD? Jak and everyone are online.
The text read.

Ratchet picked up his phone and texted him back
Yes. I'll get on with you guys. I'm playing RA right now. He texts back.

Sweet. Okay. we'll meet you online Nate texts back.

Ratchet walked up to the PlayStation 5 and ejected the disk out, he went on his shelf and grabbed Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, opened the game and grabbed the game from the orifice of the disk with his finger, and brought it to the console, he turned on the game and went online, he put on the headset and started the match.

"Woah!" Crash said.

"Hi, Crash." Ratchet said.

"Hey, Ratchet. What's up?" Nate asked from the headset.

"I'm okay. What's up with you guys?" he asked.

"I'm good," Daxter said.

"Cool, cool. Let's do it. What map should we play on?" Nate asked them.

"I think we should play in Seattle." Ratchet said pressing the X button to select it.

"No, no. I wanna do Miami!"
Daxter shouted.

"Oh, come on bro! We always do Miami! Let's do something else!" Coco said.

"Hold up, guys. I think we should all get on a Group FaceTime call right now and settle this. I'll grab my laptop." Ratchet said.

Ratchet came back seconds later with his MacBook Pro in his hands. He opened it up and pressed FaceTime and did a group call with everyone.

A black background was placed with four boxes on the screen, including Ratchet. Which was five. "MR SQUIDWARD, all my customers keep dying from Coovid-15!" Nate said.

"I'm not making any money!" Ratchet 'wined' then started to fake cry.

"Oh man, that video was pure gold! When you sent it to the chat on Discord. I LOST IT!" Nate said, laughing.

"It was Rivet who sent it but it was still funny." Ratchet laughed.

He went on the PlayStationSquad server—which was his server. He clicked it. It had 1.536 members online, including him. When he posted it on Twitter that he was now on Discord, people lost their marbles! He was surprised that his whole server didn't crash because of how many people were joining in a minute. Because of this—Ratchet had to make Nathan part of the Moderation Team.

I'm getting off track...

Ratchet thought to himself. as he looked at his screen.

"Alright guys, let's kick some butt!" he said as they played some CoD.

They were each on different teams.

"Ohhhh! Get rekt Ratchet!"
"Oh come on, Sly! I thought we were on the same team!" Ratchet said as he got killed by a grenade.

He could just hear laughing coming from the raccoon.

"We have a question?" Jak asked.

"How in the heck are you getting internet in your van?!" Coco asked.

"Murray hooked it up so we can play CoD," he said.

"Dude, you're insane," Nathan said.

"Heck yeah, I am!" Sly said, shooting Ratchet down.

"Aw come on!" he yelled

"Dude you were camping! Why were you camping?!" Sly said. "I wasn't camping!" Ratchet shouted.

"YES, YOU WERE!" Daxter yelled at his teammate.

"Bro! Chill, it's just a game." Ratchet said, trying to calm his co-worker down.

The ottsel growled through his headset. "Look, Davis, I am going to find you and wipe you off the face of the earth!" he said. "Dude CHILL!" Nathan said.

"WOAH!" Crash exclaimed.

"Yeah, dude, for real calm down," Coco said, shooting and killing Sly in the game.

"Bruh!" she said. Coco sent out a bomb squad, killing him instantly.

"Guys! We've been playing ten rounds..... Rivet is texting me to get In-N-Out." Ratchet said.
"Oh, okay."

"What is your wife too pretty to leave the house?!" Daxter asked.

"What.... no-Bro! She's building a LEGO set in the basement."

Daxter laughed. "What is she, five?! And isn't she supposed to be a mom? Isn't it her job to get the groceries and clean the house?!" he asked.

"Dude! What crawled up your butthole and died?" Ratchet asked.

"Oh, he's just mad because his account got hacked," Jak explained.

"Oof, which one?" The Lombax asked.

"His Twitter."

"Oof! That sounds rough–Wait, which one? His personal or his work account?" Nate asked.

"His personal. He tried hours to get it back.... So far, nothing."

"Did you do something?" Ratchet asked, still playing the match. "We've tried everything. We even called Twitter support if they can do something, but nope."

"Bro that's messed up." Ratchet said.

"Yeah, dude, it is," Nate said as he killed Crash, then got the victory for his team.

"YES, WE GOT A VICTORY, A. V-I-C-T-O-R-Y! HECK YEAH, BABY!"

"Well guys, it's been real with you. But I'm going to sign off, gonna play Sonic Forces." Ratchet said.

"Alright, later bro, It was fun playing with you bro," Nate said. Ratchet went offline and played Sonic Forces.
