Part 1: Above the ground
Station Square still has a few hours of daylight. Most of the people are going about their buisness and traveling in cars or walking on the streets. Outside of Tranquil Manor though congregates a group of people, all of whom are surround a young green fox and an odd looking grey...mobian, who has black dots on the whites of his eyes.

Neo is the first to speak to the group. "Listen we have a huge problem. This is Time Spinner, his friend has gone missing. While normally this wouldn't be a problem, this girl has the power to take away and give life. If her powers get into the wrong hands, we're dead. We need to figure out who this is and saved her."

Christina: [She is walking with Krys and hears Neo.]Is he talking ab out you, Krys?

Krys: Nono.... I bet she doesn't have to recharge her magic part for a week after she casts the spell.

Christina: [Runs up to Neo.] Um, who is this girl you're talking about?

Time Spinner turns his hide sideways at Christina's appearence. "Crystal Treetop?"

Neo snaps her fingers. "Time, what does Aselia look like now?"

Time shakes his head. "Oh, right, umm...she's a red hedgehog, with short hair and black clothes. She has two rings on her hands and her powers aren't exactly magic...though she can use it, she's a unicorn like me." He touches the top of his head, as if feeling for something. "Well, was a unicorn..."

Krys: [Runs behind her.] I also happen to be a unicorn.

Christina: [Answering Time Spinner] Well... this isn't Equestria. [To both Neo and Time Spinner.]By the way, this is Krys. She's a close friend of mine, and.... she's magic.

Krys: What a coincidence. We're both unicorns.

Time Spinner's eyes light up at Krys. "Thank Celestia, another unicorn! Wait, did you come from Equestria too? Maybe your from another realm, maybe...Foster, maybe the white realm, no..that doesn't make sense...your...." He continutes to go on about where Kyrs might be from.

Neo luckily steps in and interrupts him. "Sorry about him, he's not exactly...um...well normal. Anyways, I do believe Christina has mentioned you before. My name is Neo Tranquil. I don't have magic."

"That's because you can't apply yourself and change your shape, Tranquility. If you just put some backbone into it..." Time said, causing Neo to roll his eyes.

Krys: [She looks confused.] Equestri-what?

Christina: It's a kingdom ruled by Princess Celestia. Nevermind that... I sorta have this weird power.... but it might help at a place like the Underground or something...

"Weird power?" Neo asked. "Like something we haven't seen before? If we're using new powers, then this will be an excellent time to show off my brand new powers too!"

Christina: Oh, honestly, I'd love to show you and all... but it only works in dark places. And I don't need Krys's magic to make it work. Wiat... [Raises an eyebrow at Neo.] You have new powers too?

"Yeah, after I died, I got some new powers." Neo said.

"Why doesn't that surprise me..." Time Spinner said.

"Anyway..." Neo turned back to Christina. "I got a new form and I can do some new stuff too! Though, some of my more...'darker' skills are harder to do now. Except for my blood drinking one. That seems to work no matter what."

Christina: Well, if you want to see mine, you need to go to a dark place. Otherwise, it wouldn't be so unusual.

"Trust me, where we are going, it's gonna get dark." Neo said as he looked towards the staircase not to far from Tranquil manor. "We're just waiting on a few people..."

Christina: Oh...

A child like fox appears from around the corner. "C-can I be of as-assistance..?" The fox stutters lightly, pushing some of her hair from her face. She stares lightly at the group, hoping for an answer.

"You..." Neo looked at her kind of funny. "What can you do? I mean we can use all the help we can get, but where we are going is pretty dangerous. You should be able to protect yourself..." There was something different about the way he addressed this fox. Though it's difficult to make out.

The fox mantained her stare and walked up to Neo, flicking a finger slightly, Icicles shooting at him. "I'm fairly capable of defending myself, Thank you." Her tone in voice suddenly changing from a sweetish voice to more offended and sarcastic.

Neo smiled, and looked at the icicles she shot him. He gave a warm smile, and muttered something under his breath. Then he looked up to the fox. "You remind me of a fox I used to know. You're more than welcome to join us. My name is Neo, Neo Tranquil."

The fox lightly narrowed her eyes before sighing. "Miyuki Akuroma. I'm a Cyrokinetic, and a Minor Chronokinetic. I want to come along, because I kinda wanna raise my credibility here, in this timeline-nevermind that last bit, and this power she has,  we really don't want it to fall into the wrong hands, like you said. I...maaaybe was listening to everything you all said..."

"Ah excellent, another unicorn and a another time manipulator, this group is turning out nicely!" Time Spinner said.

Neo sighed at Time's words and looked back to the fox. "That's Time Spinner, he controls time. Over there is Christina, she's a fashion designer with florokinesis and some new powers, that is Krys, I don't know what she does, but I think it has something to do with life. We have some other's coming too. Like Zero, who uses a chao that can turn into weapons, Ellie who's a priestess of the church, and..."

Neo was interrupted by a yellow cat in purple clothing. "And then there's us." She said. "Hello there, my name is Fate, I'm Neo's sister. Oh and this..." She pointed to a red hedgehog in blue clothing. "Is Leah. She can use magic." Fate gave a little bow to Miyuki. "It's very nice to meet you."

A pink vixen dressed in light crimson silently followed behind Fate and Leah, her blade at her side. The look of determination could be seen on her face.

"Um..um...It's nice to meet you all..." She lightly stared at the Pink Vixen.."Um..nice to meet you, I'm Miyuki...you?" She scanned the group quietly before lying her gaze on the pink vixen.

"Oh that's right, I haven't told you what I can do yet." Fate said pulling her slightly blue tinted pistol out of it's holster. "I'm psychic. I can see the future, I can use telekinesis...I can sense the people around me..." She said the last part very loudly. "You might as well come out. I can already tell your here." Fate told the vixen.

"It's fine, I was going to announce myself anyway seeing as we have a new face." The vixen seemed remarkably less tense as she went to speak, her tone being light and calm. "I'm Masako Haruno. I'm here to lend my blade." She bowed to Miyuki.

"Oh, Masako it's just you..." Fate gave a sigh of relief and holstered her gun back. "I thought you were..."

Leah put a hand on Fate's shoulder. "Are you okay Fate? You haven't been the same since we met Warlock."

"Yes, yes I'm fine." Fate said waving. "Look here comes the rest of our companions."

A blue hedgehog in a black hoodie and a pink bunny in some a red dress approached. Near the hedgehog was a white chao with a happy grin on her face. "Wow, you certainly have invited everyone." The blue hedgehog said.

"Quiet you." The bunny said. She looked to the fox and crooked her head.

"Everyone this is Miyuki, she'll be joining us on this expedition." Neo told them. "Mikyuki, the blue one is Zero, the pink one is Ellie, and the chao is Weapon. Okay, that should be everyone. Oh, and we may have some guests join us as time goes along so just remember that." He gave a final look to everyone and then appraoched a set of stairs that led to a dark pathway. "Okay, everyone in." Neo pulled a key out and unlocked the gate and pulled it open. "This pathway will take us to the lower part of the city."

"Um? Why are you bowing? P-please just refrain from the bows, it's kinda embarassing." Miyuki leaned lightly against a wall. "Masako Haruno? Nice to meet you though.."

"I was simply showing my respect, Miyuki." Masako said. "So, back to the depths? Very well, then."

"Wait!" Another fox could be seen running up to the group, her physical appearance being remarkably similar to Masako's. "I'm coming too!"

Masako simply shook her head. "I'm sorry, sis. The road ahead will be dangerous, and I'd never forgive myself if something happened to you..."

"I can help, though! Please, you have to trust me!" the other vixen begged.

"L-Let her come. T-The more the merrier, right?" Miyuki pointed out lightly, though stuttering softly.

Masako sighed. "...Alright... this is my younger sister, Prairie. She's not much of a fighter, though..."

"So what if I can't fight? I have other powers at my disposal... I want to use them... I want to help. It's the least I can do after you all saved me..." Prairie said.

"Nice to meet you. Can we go to the lower half of the city now?" Miyuki sighed impatiently.

"Indeed. Let's get going then." Neo said as he jumped into the hall.

Part 2: Into the depths
Neo plops down onto the ground from the stairs. The hall is dark and barely visable, and Neo has to pull out a flashlight for anyone to see. He turns to the stairs and calls up to everyone else. "Come on then. Christina, you might want to show off that power of yours, if it can help us see."

Christina: It's not that interesting. But I think it might be useful... [Inhales deeply] ♪Flower gleem and glow,,,♪ [Her hair starts glows and the cave starts to illuminate.] ♪Let your power shine....♪

Miyuki blinked with surprise. "T-t-that's really pretty..." She murmured lightly as they all walk.

Prairie's head simply danced to the tune... she seemed to like music.

Krys:.... That's oddly helpful.

Christina: ♪Make the clock reverse.... Bring back what once was mine....♪

"Huh, nice." Neo says. "Now then Time Spinner, where's Aselia?"

Time closes his eyes and his eye lids glow blue for a split second. He opens his eyes as fast as he can. "Where going in the right direction." He says. "She's just down here. Then it looks like we go up and towards this weird...castle thing...

"Castle thing?" Ellie asks in a very concerned voice. "What's it look like?"

"Well there's a really big house, but it has walls and guards like it's a castle." Time says as if trying to focus on an image.

"Castle forte..." Fate says as she brings up the rear of the group. "No that doesn't seem right. Castle forte looks different. Do you know who took Aselia?"

"I don't know. He wore black armor, he had a white mask on with a hood. and I couldn't see anything but his tail and his ears. They looked kind of like Tranquility's but they were black." Time Spinner focused.

"So he's a fox..." Neo said in an annoyed voice.

Krys: Depends... Does he big ears and or a long tail?

"Just the fact it's a fox annoys me. I really hate some of the foxes in this timeline... But Kyrs has a point. We need a good description on what he looks like!" Miyuki lightly flicked her tail against the dark ground.

Krys: [Her horn lights up and  a magic board appears.] Alriht. Tell me a detail and then it will be written on this board and then a colored sketch will appear on the other side.

Time Spinner sighed and put his finger into the air. "Alright well he wore black plate armor, and a black hood. He had a white mask with a weird painted face on it. He had black boots and a white sword on his belt. His ears and tail looked exactly like Tranquility's but instead of green they were black. They were the same length and everything."

Fate and Leah looked at Masako as if asking her something in silent.

Masako seemed to nod... the details seemed familiar. But that would mean... Warlock must be altering the present...

Krys: [Her magic makes the details write out on the board: Black armor, black hood, white mask, black boots, white sword on belt, face of tranquility but in a black hue.] Let's see....

"So, we're looking for a black fox with a white mask?" Miyuki tilted her head to one side, her ahoge lightly tilting on her ear. "He has a sword too? That's kinda scary."

Krys: Wait.... this wasn't Warlock, was it? And it definetly couldn't be Milie the Rat, could it?

"Well I don't know if his face is like Tranquility's, I never saw it, it was behind the mask but his ears and tail match up." He said happier than he should have.

"Millie the...Rat...?" Leah asked awkwardly. She kept a laugh back, but it was difficult and obivous that she found it humorous. "She's still my...equal...despite the evil things she does."

"That's definetly Warlock." Fate said. "If he has her...oh my god..." She said. "Okay, this might end in a fight, and if it does, don't let him cut you with his sword. It ends...badly..."

Miyuki let out a light whimper. "I...I don't like swords...Not at all...especially the look of this guys.. H-how bad does it end?" She asked lightly, still slightly frightened.

Fate shuddered. "Um...if you'll forgive, I would prefer not to answer that question. It's difficult to answer without a demonstration of something else, that I believe Miss Ellie would provide."

Ellie though answered the question. "It feels like your being tortured, but worse."

Miyuki shivered at the answer. "That sounds horrible.." She continued walking. "L-let's not get caught up on stories, Aselia could be seriously hurt."

"He's able to use magic too, so staying out of the range of his sword won't be enough..." Masako explained.

"Then beating him is extremely difficult." Miyuki sighed, flicking her tail. "So we'd have to come up with a stradegy if it comes to a fight."

Krys: It can't be very easy. [The magic board erases on it's own.] Magic isn't powerful enough.

Zak and Leo come running down the street.

Zak: Sorry we're late. Leo wanted to go to the chao center.

Leo: They we're so cuddley! Oh, hi Auntie Masako!

"M-more..?" Miyuki muttered softly under her breath before tapping her foot gently. "You're late. Don't get distracted anymore."

"'Auntie'...?" Masako tilted her head to the side. Granted, it was kind of cute, but... "...Well there's bound to be at least two more joining us after this. One of them's rather loud and hammy, I hope you can tolerate that."

Christina: Anyone here have fighting abilities?

"Well, if you mean throwing razor sharp icicles, blizzards, kicking, and a bamboo sticks is fighting abilities, then yes for myself." Miyuki smiled slightly at Christina. She then turned to Masako. "As long as he doesn't yell in my ear, I can tolerate."

"No he doesn't do that." Neo called from the front of the group. "He mainly just predicts what your going to say next. Like..." He changed his voice to a much deeper one, with an american accent. " Like; 'next your going to say; that sounds annoyng.' stuff like that." He smiled a bit and focused back on trying to find his way through the path. 'Hey, Miyuki, can you hack? You kind of look like the type who does that kind of thing."

Masako giggled a bit under her breath.

Miyuki laughed lightly. "Yeah, I hack. Why?" She murmured as she scanned the pathway.

Christina: Nice acting...

"Well there's a group back here, their name is A.R.T.E, they're a hacking group. They aren't evil or anything, but I think we might have to deal with some of them. Figured if we had someone with us who coulld hack, we might be able to speak to them better." Neo turned his head towards her and smiled. "Plus my hacking skills are pretty out of date."

"Maybe I should've brought Natalie along then... back at OmegaCorp, most of us are only trained to bypass basic firewalls. In Natalie's division, they drop logic bombs and stuff." Masako explained.

Christina: I think you can do it, Miyuki.

"I think you can do it yourself, Neo. But I'll step in if I must." Miyuki turns to Christina. "Me? Thank you, I try."

"Yeah, I'd say you're our best bet at reasoning with them." Masako encouraged Miyuki.

"Just try your best!" Prairie cheered.

Christina: [Looks at Miyuki] We don't think. We know.

"I-I thin-know we should let him deal with the hacking. I'm just gonna..." Miyuki quietly slinks to the back of the group and tries to look as hidden as possible.

Krys: [Her horn lights up and she levitates Miyuki in Krys's command.] I guess Neo could do it if you don't want to, Miyuki. [She puts Miyuki back down on her feet.]

Miyuki folds her arms and stares at Krys. "You levitating me isn't bothering, to be honest. I'd prefer him doing it, he may know things I don't." She smiles slightly, and slinked back to the back and tries to use her shortness as a hiding technique.

Prairie's smile dropped a bit... she seemed worried about Miyuki. She didn't know why she was being so defensive, but she was also afraid to ask why and make matters worse...

Neo shrugged. "If that's what you want. Just wanted to give you a chance to, what was it, 'raise your credibility in this timeline?' Though I'm sure I can talk them down a bit. I'm just a bit worried. They might want Aselia as well." He kept walking forward. "Okay, we're almost out into the underground. Don't falsh your powers down there. It could start a fight, and that will draw attention to us, I'm talking to you two, Zak and Leo. Anyway, the place will be crawling with thugs, so stay close and don't get lost. The last thing we want to do is get seperated and trapped. Look there's the door." As Neo approaches the door, the entire path lights up, a gate goes up trapping the mobians between the gate and the door. Neo tries to open the door, but it won't budge.

"Okay, send them in." A voice far away says. The door opens and standing ahead of them are two foxes. One is cyan blue, he's wearing a white coat and grey gloves, he's kind of short, but looks like he's about Fate's age. The other is green with blue eyes, she's wearing a pink shirt, pink gloves, and a pink mini skirt. She has pink tennis shoes and long white socks. Something very featureable are the cuts and bruises she has on her face and arms. There aren't many, but she looks like she was beaten a long time ago. "Who are you?" The blue fox says.

Zak: Uh, who are you?

"Name's Glyph." The male fox said. "I'm in charage of running the entrance ways into the lower quarter of the city. You know there's quite the power struggle going on. What do you think, you folks are doing?"

Leo: I dunno, you think a 9 year old and a 7 year old puffball know what's going on?

Zak: 7 and a half.

Glyph gets up and walks to the group, specificlly Leo. He takes his hand and smacks it across Leo's face. "I don't like being talked to like that. You should learn to respect your elders." He takes a few steps back and turns to the group. "Now then who are you people and why are you here?"

Neo steps up. "We are here to reclaim a...friend."

"A friend?" Glyph sighs. "Would this friend happen to be a red hedgehog with no tail?"

Neo turns to Time Spinner who just nods.

"You and everyone else in this quarter. The lower quarter is full of people fighting over this girl. Last I heard, Queen Millicent was heading over to talk with the captor."

"And why aren't you two there?" Neo asks hestitently.

"We are just a group of hackers. Polictics? We don't need to do with anything like that. Now if it was technology, we'd be out there but why fight over something everyone else is fighting for? We'll just end up getting her taken from us anyhow." Glyph tells the group.

Zak: That doesn't sound good.

Leo: Aw jeez..I think you just popped a zit.

Zak: That's kinda what you get for disrespecting authority.

"Hm...I have a question...Glyph, was it? Are you willing to tell us the captors name or location in offer for a piece of technology?" Miyuki smiled slightly, trying to get as much infomation as possible.

"Trust me Girly. There isn't any tech you have that we don't." Glyph said. "But you know what would do us good? Information." Glyph walked around the area. "So here's the deal, I'll let you into the lower quarter, but you have to take Celia with you so she can study this dimension girl. If somehow this girl disappears, which this captor has a habit of doing, Celia will have to stay with you and accompany you on all your missions.. We'll know if you go off without her. So what do you say?" Glyph offers his hand to Neo. "Do we have a deal?"

Neo looks to the others. "What do you guys think?"

Zak: I'm in, but before that, if you guys have a every type of tech, and I'm just asking, do you have a ship that runs on an energy source that could only be created by an engine that can only be made by combining a high level chaos energy buffer, a super computer chip, the Advent version of the M.E.G.A drive, and a download of a warpstar energy code? And yes that's a real thing.

Leo:.......I'm in as long as the cop doesn't hit me again.

"Yes, Kirby, we know of your kind and it's technology. We've studied enough. From warp ship to Formula star, there isn't any piece of tech we don't have. My organization does exist all over the world." Glyph scoffed angrily. "You know I'm starting to lose my paitence with these two."

Miyuki sighs gently. "I'm fine with it." She then mumbled something about how it was 'too bad' that they rejected her offer.

Zak: Just a question.......

"I think it's best if you saved that question for later; it's not like this'll be the last time we meet. We need to keep moving." Masako urged. She glanced over at Celia, then returned her attention to the rest of the group. "She seems resourceful enough, and I'm certain we're capable of protecting her. Glyph probably wouldn't invest his trust in our group otherwise."

"Alright then, we accept." Neo said shaking Glyph's hand.

"Excellent..." Glyph said a little darkly. "Alright, Celia head with them." The green fox stood up and joined the group. "Fine then, this girl is with Queen Millicent in the dark hall. Her captor's name is Warlock. You know your job." He pulled a lever and the wall in front of him slammed shut, then rose. The door to the outside world opened up, revealing the ugly, disgusting, trashed streets of the lower quarter.

"That was...odd..." Neo said.

Leo: Yeah, but despite everything, that guy was a rip-off artist.

Right after the gate opened, a 58-kilogram mass of muscle and fur came barrelling towards the group. "DYNAMIC ENTRY!"

Zak: Celestial dammit....

Another figure snatched the ham by the collar of his jacket. Being held up in the air, he appeared to be a large wolf.

"Wrong anime, Argent." A smaller, female wolf calmly walked after him. She appeared to be an albino, as well.

"Aww." Argent almost seemed to calm down now. The figure holding his collar released him, retreating into the other wolf.

"Argent!" Neo called happily. "Miyuki, this is the one I talking about."

Argent stood up tall, his hands on his hips. "So, which one of you decided to head on without us?"

"LOOK OUT! GOLDEN FLASH COMIN THROUGH!!", as this was said a crimson flash covering a gold ball come hurtling past them, it landed wth a thud.

"Aw, come on! We just got out of one thing now we have to get into another." Ellie said as she drew her two handed axe.

"I don't even know what's going on." Neo told the group, pulling his beautiful white dagger and neon green claws out of his jacket pocket.

"All I know is that this is going to be fun." Zero nodded to Weapon who inched closer to Zero's hand.

Miyuki sighed, knowing they couldn't talk out of this one. "Fun? When is fighting fun." She pulled a bamboo stick from its sheath on her back.

Zak: If that thing is aimng for me, that'll be the last time he gets to use any of his powers.

Leo: Zak, I know that all Kirby's have an eating disorder, but we might need this guy *takes out his sword* unless he tries to kill us.

"..." Masako hadn't the slightest idea what was going on just yet, but proceeded to draw Susano'o from its scabbard. The blade gleamed in the light filtering from above.

A figure stumbled towards them. Its hand glowed crimson and they would find they were limited in movement. "I really have to restrain you from attacking me? Wow...just wow."

"What the..." Miyuki tried moving her body. "Telekinesis?!" Why did she find it hard to move? She was fairly used to being picked up by Telekinesis, but why couldn't she move now?!

"Hey! What the hell?" Argent couldn't move, being stuck in another hammy pose with his hands above his head.

Masako struggled, giving up quickly. "This isn't exactly the friendliest of places, you know. We have to be prepared to defend ourselves down here."

Neo's hand rested on a roundel grenade he had on his belt. It glowed an erie green color and Neo had almost thrown it to the ground when he stopped himself. "You know, you could have just told us it was you, Aurum. Maybe then we wouldn't be in this mess." He looked back to Celia, then to the figure. "You could at least let the lady go, we're supposed to escort her."

"Hehehehehe, sorry. The fact that my appearance could've said otherwise." The gold hedgehog steps out of the smoke and his hand stops glowing. Everyone can move once more.

Miyuki furiously sighs and resists smashing her stick in his face and glared darkly at the hedgehog.

Zak: Sheesh, you really shouldn't sneak up on a Kirby like that, otherwise you would've been inhaled and lost your powers.

Masako returned her blade to its sheath. "...Sorry."

"Yeah thanks for that. I'm kinda aware of what a kirby could do, and hey you were gonna attack me so what else could I do?"

"...Something feels off... does anyone else feel like we're being watched?" Prairie asked.

Zak: Uh, sneak up on someone who won't eat you?

????: Wait up!

The group turned around and saw a green hedgehog slide on her face for about 10 inches and a white hedgehog chasing after her.

Tori: I was about to tell you that there was a rock.

Lexi: Thanks for the warning..

Leo: Well, looks like the whole groups here

"Uh...who are you two?" He looks at Argent." Funny pose by the way."

Miyuki sighs and puts away her stick. "Atleast didn't need to fight." She darkly glared at the hedgehog, before looking at the newcomers. "Nice to meet you? I'm Miyuki."

Zak: Friends of ours who are usually mean to Masako.

Lexi: Since when?!

Leo: Since like 2 to 5 months ago!

"Actually I think it was the other way around that time..." Masako said.

Argent looked over toward Miyuki. "So, you must be new to our little group, huh? Well, you already know who I am by now, and uhh... this is my sister, Rose." He motioned toward the other wolf that came in with him.

"And I'm Aurum." Aurum said.

"Nice to meet you, Argent. Rosa." Miyuk smiled lightly at the pair, then turning to Aurum abd glaring at him. "Stay away from me. It's...mediocre to meet you."

"Eh whatever, wasn't gonna hurt you but oh well." Aurum said with an embarrassed face. "And I am not mediocre! Anyway don't you have something to do. Someone to protect?"

"Sure, sure you weren't." Miyuki sighed angrily, slinking away from him. "Yes, yes we do. Why?"

" Cause you might not wanna turn your attention to me and focus on keeping her safe. And I only did that to make sure you didn't try to hit me with any of your weapons.:

"Then why did you attack us in the first place." Miyuki sighed angrily.

"Guys, come on! Now's not the time to be arguing!" Prairie pouted.

"It wasn't an attack. I was keeping you restrained so I could tell you I was not an enemy!", said Aurum irritatibly. He sighs and starts to float above them. "If you dont' wanna see my face then I'm perfectly fine staying up here."

"Whatever. If you're going to join us, then jump down." Miyuki sighed again.

He dangles upside down. "Of course, but I'm not coming down."

"Whatever. Makes me happy that you don't anyway." Miyuki smiled slightly to herself and turned to everyone else. "Should we go now?"

"...jerk..." Aurum mumbles to himself.

Prairie sighed.

Lexi: I don't know, we're waiting for Neo to get back from the bathroom so he'll tell us

Miyuki chuckled. "From what I've gathered, you past people- I mean people from around here take a long time on the toilet."

"Really now? Last I checked they fight for some kind of freedom or something. Not stay that long and TMI!" Aurum said rather uncomfortably.

"Who even says TMI, you hipster." Miyuki sighed. "Learn to take a joke." She mumbles under her breath about how this guy needs to lighten up.

" I heard that."

"Glad you did." Miyuki narrows her eyes at the hedgehog before muttering again. "Silver can even take a joke...this guy's really...hardheaded.." She sighed, shaking her head again. "Why isn't that famous hero Sonic not doing anything about this?

"I think I've stated this once before. Sonic's got his own problems to worry about..." Masako said.

Tori: Mmhm, wha does TMI mean?

"Too much infomation." Miyuki mumbled.

Zak: Well since Sonic's a bum, me,Leo,Lexi,Tori,Zapor and Blade have to clean his mess up.

"What?" Neo said as he stood, right where he had been, during this entire conversation about him being gone. "What are you talking about? I've been here the whole time. I'm just staying quiet."

Celia just giggled.

"Yes well, it's as if you aren't here, so of course we will joke about your 'absence'." Miyuki sighed again. "Thanks for explaining then- That's the first time I've heard you make a sound, Miss...Celia?"

"I normally stay quiet..." Celia said in a soft voice. "My boyfriend normally does the talking."

Miyuki smiled. "That's adorable~!" She looked back at Neo. "So are we going to get moving?"

"I hope so, this is getting really boring." Rose said.

"..." Aurum floats around absent-mindedly, his bangs occasionally floating around

Masako thought for a second... "Hmm... I get the feeling this isn't just about Aselia..." She looked over toward Celia. "You wouldn't happen to be able to analyze other things, such as combat data?"

"Well yes I can, but we don't need your data." Celia said. "I mean that's not to say that your combat styles are useless, not at all but what I mean is...um...well, we already have most of the data from you all. We first collected data from this group when those mobians went missing, then all the data we didn't have was collected when Station Square got taken. There isn't that much data we don't have on you all..."

"Do you have data on me?" Aurum asked curiously

"How do you have data on me?" Miyuki asked, tilting her head confused.

Celia looked to Miyuki and started thinking. "Um...no...no for some reason we don't data on your combat style, you on the other hand." She pointed at Aurum. "We have plenty of you."

Neo looked kind of surprised. "Hm! That's quite...er...resourceful..."

Time Spinner stopped in front of a large building. "Is this the place?"

Celia nodded. "Yes, this is where they're keeping the girl."

"Well than let's go!"

Miyuki nodded her agreement. "I hope she's alright."

"Hey what do you know of me anyway?"

Masako seemed skeptical. "You haven't been selling that data, have you?"
