Franky Tanky
From the ashened questions we let burn out, Pheen-X (and Amp) tries to bring these questions back to life, with an inferno of answers. This week's question, Why the heck does a gang boss like Franky have a tank for his buisiness? Well, it was upon this question, Amp was able to show his specialty. Since he's spent his life out on the field, he knows many of the enemies we've faced before, and he's willing to give the dirt, so I left this one to him...partially.
"thanks kid. Now, Franky certainly was one...interesting person. Constantly drawing kids in with pizza, hula hoops and arcade tokens. Well, funny thing is, the arcade was actually inhabited with the evil temptation of Giygas for the longest part, drawin the kids to take you down on arrival."
But that's another story Amp
"Keep your shirt on, I know, I'm getting to the topic. Ah-hem, any way, onto Franky. Now, have you ever truly put to thought what the MK. II meant? At first they tried to make some weird anagram out of it, but the first prototype of the mech...kinda...sorta, had technical difficulties"
You mean like screwed up wires or a lose socket?
"No, no...spilled coffee."
Ah
"I swear, they must not of known that kids actually drink that stuff to, I mean, it's so temptin and flavorful and keeps those little-"
Amp! You're goin off topic again!
"huh, oh yea, yea, where was I. Well, after the first exploded, they had to rebuild a new one. This proved difficult because the first was truly huge, with multiple weapons and armor and missles, so it was a pain to replace. Mainly because most of the metal used was that that was also held within common arcade tokens...that were being held onto by Franky's gang...so they had to go with the next best thing."
What? Steel, platinum, gold, iron, stufasatorium?
"Uhhh, close...I think, I don't even know what that iron stuff is."
Well what is it?!
"Okay, you know how most arcades have those lazy, easily destroyed, cheapo toys right?"
Uh ya, most that I've been to, but I didn't see any in Onett's arcade.
"Exactly! They had to mix up the cheapo toys in a major mash and jumble, soon making...a mess. Something was still off and they needed one more piece to get the MK. II in action. And funny how the last piece was just outside the arcade."
Okay, since you've pretty much gave a weak answer to all my questions, I'm guessing this last piece was like a, uh, fire hydrant or something.
"Oh, you know the design too? Well, this hydrant proved to have special qualities from being near a building with Giy-"
Okay stop there, I don't want the details around a red metal thing that just sits on the corner of a street, only to be used as a dogs bathroom, just go on
"fine fine, well, once the hydrant was attached, it all came together, making a...tank with fists and that weird grin. The arcade had some pretty messed up toys. Now this tank was originally meant to be a way bigger boss fight later in the game, but that was MK. I, so that didn't happen. And, well, this tank looked so pathetic, the big guy didn't even want to use it on his side, so he just dumped it in Onett's dump...or the back of the arcade, same thing. Franky soon came across it, and had the gut feeling that it'd help if he got in a fight, which he did. He learned his lesson on mechanics that same day, and how...bad they can be.
and thus is the story of the MK. II. Got anymore questions kid?"
Nope, sums it up pretty good, not bad for your first job.
"You kiddin kid, sooner or later I'm puttin you out of business"
Haha, very funny. And thus, another question is left to light that interesting barrel fire being lit for the hobo's down in the alley. So this is PheenX (and Amp!), saying, stay in arcades kids.
