Havoc from the Oddworld Forums wrote this story. It is the Oddworld games translated into story, with some of his own parts added in. He has said that he is doing quitee a big thing, turning the game into a story.

Chapter 1 - Introduction

Somewhere on the planet of Oddworld, somewhere south in Modo's lies a huge factory. A factory with tons of pipe lines, smoke stacks and endless corridors. A huge stockyard with wildlife surrounding it. Being one of the four structures on Oddworld that an be seen from outerspace, Rupture Farms is believed to be the biggest meet proccesing plant on Oddworld.
Inside are working 100 modukon slaves, captured as natives and put to work by the evil Magog Cartel. Pulling levers, cleaning bathrooms, transforming creatures of the wild into teasty treats and cleaning up blood from those half beaten to death by slig security forces guarding the plant.
The enslaved mudokons have no other choice the just to work as a camera or a slig is always near.
Sleep, eat, work, sleep is the ever lasting cycle of an enslaved mud. For some variation you might get lucky if your beat up and get to rest on the health section. On the other hand, they might just as easely kill you.
Deep in the factory in a room only lightend by some orange lights in the floor powerd by the nly generator still working, is a lonely mud. A blue skinned mud and also the verry last one being present in the plant as we speak.
His name is Abe, promoted to waxing the CEO corridors without guarding. Now he hangs there all alone, his wrists tied up to ropes in the ceiling standing in a strange circler platform.
On the wall he reads things like: Molluck sucks! **** Rupture Farms! Rather dead then a slave!
He came to realize he was in death row... and was just a few minutes away to standing face to face with his boss: Molluck, the Glukkon.
While thinking back to that dreadfull night three days ago when he first started out his new job.

He was happy, he was waxing the floors just outside the CEO confrence room! And best of all, he had no slig guards around to beat him up. Completing a full month of not having beat made him a trustfull and loyal mud. Getting him the promotion every slave at Rupture Farms dreams about. Besides, the sligs felt relieved as well. They handle a gun much better then a mob.
While mumbeling and pushing the waxer Abe looked at the posters of the three man products thay made at the factory. Scar Cakes, Paramite Pies... meech munchies came to extinction, unfortunatly. He shook his head in grief.
Suddenly his eye cought attention to a new add, one he never saw before.

SOMETHING NEW AND TASTY! COMING SOON!

Abe was confused. A new kind of meat? Where would they get that from? Did they discover a new species in this area? He did'nt think so. Although he know Oddworld had way more spiecies then just Mudokons, sligs, slogs, Glukkons, scrabs and Paramites. But all those other species did not live close enough to Rupture Farms to be used as a meat host.
While watching the add he suddenly stood in the shadows of a stroke of light. Coming from straigt behind him. It was the door to the confrence room, it was opend just enough to see what was happaning.
Abe shifferd, he would want to take a peek. But if he got cought... that would be a disaster! They probably wont let him get away with just 50 beat ups. They also won't but hm back in his old position of cleaning the stockyards for scrab poo. They would most likely have him shot.
But dispite that, he took a look anyway.
Inside he saw Molluck, and he scared when he saw two other gluks just a few fet away from him on both sides of the door. Luckely they did'nt see him as they where watching the presentation of Molluck.
Abe watched along with them.
On the big screen accros from the door Abe saw the saiiling records from the scrab cakes and the Paramite pies. They where falling to an abnormal depth becouse of the close extinction of the animals.
The other gluks started to react to it.
'Here ya go!' said one, a few platforms away from the door.
'He did it!' said another next to him.
Another closed his eyes and shook his head.
'Oh no, we're going down...'
A glukkon on the far right in a green outfit with spikkes stikking out of his neck was the only one daring to confront Molluck with the disaster.
'Oh my god Mullock! What are ya doin huh?!'
Molluck turned around, for a minute there Abe thought he would see him and looked for cover.
'Watch,' Molluck said then talked to the slig next to him, 'show em.'
A new chart apearded on the big screen. With flashing colours and a sales record going trough the roof.
'But how!' the green gluk yelled. The screen changed again and at that moment Abe almost had a heart attack. The new meat! It where mudokons!
The gluks started laughing, being happy with the sollution to the problem. Meanwhile Abe was backing up looking around if he saw a slig that happand to be wandering around. He did'nt have to think twice before knowing he had to get out a there.
When he was sure the coust was clear he made a run for it, knowing the corridors. He made a run for the stockyards, knowing that was the only escape route there was.
But what Abe did'nt know was that the CEO door is guarded, not by sligs, but by a camera. And when he spotted Abe, all add's turned into a wanted poster with Abe on it. On top of that, it did'nt took loong for a slig to get in hot pursuit of him.

Chapter 2 - Stockyard Escape
While Abe was on the run making his way to the stockyard exit, Molluck and the other CEO's started wondering what the hell was going on. Molluck orderd the slig to call up the security cams on the main screen and a few sec later the red light alert struck the screen and they saw Abe running past a camera with a slig in hot pursuite.
'Whats going on!' Molluck yelled at the slig next to him.
'Gonna check it right away sir,' said the slig and turned on his built-in radio.
'Slig 7-49 at corridor 72 Confrence! Report in! What the hell is going on?!'
The radio crackt a little, then the voice on the ohter end came trough, still being disrupted becouse of his running.
'Worker 46, Abe is making a run for it. Camera's saw him peeking at the Confrence room,'
'Shoot him!' Molluck yelled knowing the importance of keeping his plans secret.
'I Can't sir! He jumped onto a ledge, he's out of my sight!'
The slig transferd the connection.
'Calling all sligs on duty in Zulag one, Calling al sligs on duty in Zulag one! Be on the lookout for Abe, worker 46. Terminate on sight!'
'And kill slig 7-49 while your at it,' mumbled Molluck.
The slig looked up to him and sighted.

With all the breath knocked out of him, Abe rested on the ledge he jumped on. Peeking underneath the ledge he saw the slig and was just able to dodge the gunfire.
'Your dead meat!' the slig yelled.
'Well at least im not allone,' he said knowing Molluck well enough to know he is gonna have this slig shot, 'see ya!'
While he walked away he heard two other sligs underneath him, followed by a few short shots and a slimy exploding sound.
That takes care of one slig, he thought.
With every step he took he came closer to the stockyard exit. He had to jump some mines and dodge falling meat in the grinding area before he reached a corridor where he saw a slig on duty but sleeping.
In all the silence it suprised him that the slig did'nt wake up from the endless redio anouncements: 'To all sligs on duty in Zulag one! Be on the lookout for worker 46, Abe. Terminate on sight!'
He sneaked past, dropped down to a main coridor and saw one of his buddy's working there.
'Hey,' Abe whisperd.
The mud looked.
'Hey Abe, what in Oddname did you do? These red light alarms are driving me crazy!'
'Im getting out a here, Molluck wants to turn us into food products!'
He ran off.
'What?!' the mud yelled waking up the slig above him.
Abe quikely told him to come along and the both of them made a run for it while the slig realized what was going on and came after them.
Abe and the mud jumped over a gap in the floor and while the mud landed on its feet Abe grabed a rope opening a trapdoor in the floor. The slig fell trough it.
They heard him scream and fire his gun.
'Hey! Get away! Get away you scrubby scrab! Get lost! Whaa!!'
Abe looked down and saw the slig hanging on the bottom jaw of a musclar scrab.
'Ew...' he mentioned. But this also meant he was close to stockyard... or right above it for that matter. He looked at the mud and said: 'Come on,'
But the mud did'nt move and looked at him.
'I thought you where escaping?'
Abe nodded.
'Yea ofcourse I am,'
'But...' the mud stutterd, 'the front door is that way.'
'Im going trough the stockyard, do you have any idea how guarded the front door is?'
The mud walked over to the trap door and watched how the scrab ate his slig.
'I think il pass...' he said, trying not to trow up.
'Whatever you say,' he heard Abe say, quite happy, but when he turned around he was already gone.
While hiding in shadows and after having killed two more sligs Abe finaly made it to the stockyard exit. He had to go up with an elevator past a sleeping slig to get there but he had sneaked past some before.

Meanwhile Molluck, the CEO executives and the slig where searching the sucrity cams trying to help the sligs kill Abe. They found him.
'Slig 78 - 32! He's near you! Kill him you bonehead! Wake up!'

Abe heard the radio, and saw the slig woke up about it. He quikely ducked and rolled.
He did'nt even see gunfire he had to dodge, apperently the slig had no idea what was going on.
As he fell into a barrel of chopped op scrab meat (which he was verry happy about since he would'nt want to be in a barrel with a living scrab) he thought of the slig up there who would be killed as well. He dreamed away at the thought of seeing a slig at a wall being shot by Molluck. When he opened his eyes again he saw a pipe coming straight at him. It hit him hard and he got knocked into the barrel. It would save his live as two sligs were discussing the fuzzle trowing chamionships over at vykers lab.
When he passed them he shook the meat of his head and started shaking the barrel. It worked after a few try's and not long after that Abe was out of Rupture Farms.
He sniffed the fresh air and cought. So much for the fresh air... it smelled like dead meat and unwashed sligs over here! Even the bathrooms at the Mud bunks didnt smell so bad!
He looked around to dicide where to go.

'He what!' Molluck yelled to the slig that came to bring report at Mollucks private office.
'He escaped sir...' the slig said as confident as he could. He was so sure Molluck was gonna have him shot! Even if it wasnt his fault that little basterd escaped, Molluck would just kill him for fun, he was just that kind of Glukkon.
'Whats the status?' Molluck asked.
The slig looked at him.
'He was last seen falling down a cliff while holding up his hand, we already contacted the sligs out in the forrest and the desert to be on the lookout. Trough one of the temple's is the only way he can go,'
Molluck made a laugh at the slig.
'We lose a dozen men a day extracting animals from those tempels... he won't ever make it on its own,'
