Line 30:
The pair were rescued by Omnus, who had come to return his favour. The three of them fled the malt shop with the unconscious body of Squink carried over Robota's shoulder. With the bar staff chasing after them with weapons, Terry had the idea to kick the log bridge loose from its moorings, trapping their pursuers on the other side of the Crocogater-infested waters. Omnus admitted that he was now Asteroid 43KX's public enemy, and asked if he good join Terry's crew for refuge... and because he started darn good fights. Terry accepted, and as they left the asteroid, he mused that he may not yet have found his parents, but with Robota and Omnus, he sure had found a family. {{storylink|Malt Shop Menace}}
Speeding through space, Terry was excited that he was closer to finding his parents than ever before; all they needed was for Squink to regain consciousness to give them more clues. Unfortunately, Squink was already up and had grabbed a blaster, drawing it on Terry and vowing that no one must learn the secret of the ''Space Warp''. Despite Terry imploring him that he was his only hope, Squink refused to answer any of his questions as Terry's father had blamed him for what had happened to the ship. Despite Robota's warnings of an incoming astro tornado, Squink grabbed a jet pack and jumped ship, his chances of survival slim.
Terry's ship was tossed around by the astro tornado, and it landed on the [[Gorkel|world]] of the [[Gorkels]]. Their spiritual leader, the [[Wise One]], had the Gorkels throw a banquet for Terry and his friends, as they were "close enough" to fulfilling a prophecy from their [[Book of the Gorkels|holy book]]. The Wise One explained that it was foretold that alien creatures would arrive to save their beloved [[Princess Ugly|Princess<sub> (shudder) </sub>Ugly]] from her uncle, [[Vermin the Vile]], who had placed her under a sleeping spell. After consulting with his prized picture frame, and with encouragement from Omnus and Robota that they were a family that worked together, Terry accepted the mission of rescuing the princess, especially as the Wise One would reward their deed by repairing the ship and allowing him to continue his quest. After the Wise One told them the job would be a piece of cake, another Gorkel reminded him of the myriad dangers between their settlement and the far-off [[Domed City]], but Terry, Robota, and Omnus marched forward with a determined war cry of "close enough!" {{storylink|The Saga of Princess Ugly}}
