Roleplay:Odyssey



A figure cloaked in white sat in a wireframe chair seemingly made out of emerald green, glowing circuits. He waved his hand in front of him, and a screen showing a clear picture of Station Square appeared. "Everything is prepared," he said, "All that's left is to set everying in motion." He then snapped his fingers, and instantly a green haired hedgehog appeared on screen. "You won't escape with your life, pest." He closed his eyes, and the screen vanished. He leaned back in his cicruit chair, interlocked his fingers, and completely relaxed himself. "Now, time to watch events unfold."

Part 1
It is a normal day in Station Square. The city had fully recovered from Sentinel's attack a few months earlier, and life had just returned to normal. A peculiar looking green haired hedgehog girl was walking through the streets of the city, but for some reason, she seemed....fearful -- as if someone or something would jump out any moment.

Tendril is walking by and notices her. Curious, he walks over and asks what is troubling her.

The girl jumped when Tendril walked up to her, but thet quickly feined a calm composure and answered, "Oh, it's nothing. Just thinking about some stuff."

"You sure?" he replies, "You look afraid."

She was slowly turning red in the face. "Well....uh....I..."

Just then she wsa interrupter by a loud explosion from a nearby building. Out came several robotic, wolf-looking creatures covered in pure white armor, fangs beared, roaring in the street. A few humanoid figures covered in similar armor appeared behind them.

The girl turned white with fear. She didn't run like the other people in the area. She just stood there, transfixed, petrified.

"Over there!" One of them shouted, pointing in Tendril and the girl's direction. The entire group of soldiers and monsters charged straight towards them, fangs bared and guns raised.

Tendril jumps in front of the girl defensively.

THe humanoid soldiers fired their guns, shooting energy beams at the two of them.

A thick wall of metal rises between the soldiers and Tendril, blocking the beams and protecting both him and the girl.

The girl then came to her senses. She blinked her eyes once, then ran off, leaving Tendril behind. Then, a scratching noise could be heard from the other side of the wall.

Tendril dissappears into the shadows. No sooner than when he vanished did two of the robotic behemoths burst through the metal barrier, sniffing around for their prey. "Where did she go?" one of the soldiers said. "Dammit. Keep looking! She's still somewhere in the area!" The soldiers spread out, as did the metal wolves, all searching for teh same person.

The mysterious girl ran as fast as she could through the streets of the city. She darted through alleys and took many detours hoping to lose her pursuers. She glanced back to see if she was being followed when she ran into a blue hedgehog with cyan streaks. There is a white, scaly rope over her shoulders. "Oh, I'm sorry!" She said hastily as she quickly ran past her.

The blue hedgehog remains perfectly still. Not a hint of expression crosses her face. The white rope lifts up and wraps around the mysterious girl and brings her in front of the blue one.

"What are you doing?" the girl said, struggling to break free. "I need to get away from here now!"

The hedgehog girl just blinks. The other end of the white cord lifts up and splits open, revealing it to be a snake. "Did you want to say that again?" he asks in a slow, malicious tone.

"Are you serious? Do you attack anyone who runs into you? Look I have places to go so just put me down already!"

"Do you know who I am?" the snake says, "I am Orochimaru. And yes, I do attack anyone I want."

(Uh, any reason you're just randomly starting a fight?)

(sorry)

"Put her down Orochimaru," the blue hedgehog says without a hint of emotion. The snake pauses, then sets the girl down.

"Sheesh, I try being nice, and this is what happens? What's wrong with this dimension?" The hedgehog girl said, walking right through Orochimaru.

Orochimaru turns to watch her leave. There is a glimmer of interest in his eyes that Tsunami immediately recognizes. "Don't think about it," she warns him.

Immediately a large robotic behemoth burt forth from a building and, spotting the mysterious girl, charged straight toward her.

Tsunami, who is standing between the creature and the girl, raises one hand toward the behemoth.

The monster opened it's mouth, revealing a large laser cannon, which then fired a large green energy ball at Tsunami.

Tsunami rushes to the side with blinding speed, dashing around the energy ball. She leaps foreward, vanishing as she does so. She then reappears on the creature's shoulders.

The same coated figure from before was surveying the battle from his ethereal lair. The monitor in front of him showed the fight between the beast and Tsunami. "It seems this dimension is crawling with strange people."

Meanwhile, the creature retaliated to Tsunami by sending out an electric charge through the emerald circuits that lined its back, producing visible green sparks and cackling green electricity.

Surprized by the sudden jolt, Tsunami flips backward and floats above the creature. She slams her hand down on it's head, sending bolts of her own light blue lightning coarsing through it. However, she found her hand stuck to the creature's head by glowing green energy. It then jumped in the air and fliped over, throwing Tsunami to the ground, and landed on its two hind feet, now seemingly bipedal. It snarled at Tsunami, realizing that the girl had gotten away.

The girl was hiding behind a nearby building, watching the battle unfold. "First some snake guy, now this wierd girl shows up. What's wrong with this world?" She nearly had a heart attack when someone put their hand on her shoulder. "Are you okay?" he asked. She turned and saw that it was a teenaged, red cat with blue hair. "Um, I'd be more worried about her," she replied, indicating to Tsunami's fight with the beast.

(Orochimaru and Tsunami appeared at the same time)

(?)

Tsunami removes Orochimaru from her shoulders and tosses him aside. She charges foreward with unbelievable speed.

The creature simply roared and attempted to slash Tsunami with its claws.

"No way am I getting involved in that," the cat said. "C'mon, let's get out of here before things get messy."

"Right," the girl said.

"I'm Beat. what's your name?"

"Ciel."

Beat led Ciel deeper into the city, and away from the beast.

Tsunami sidesteps and vanishes. She reappears behind the creature and thrust a ball of lightning toward it.

THe creature takes the his, and visibly takes damage from the sudden attack. It attempts to retaliate by firing some electric shots from its mouth at Tsunami.

With a quick burst of speed, Tsunami is suddenly behind the creature again. Reality begins to distort and suddenly the beast is surrounded by Tsunamis.

(You can distort reality? O_o)

The beast was confused by the sudden appearance of so many enemies. All it could do was look around.

(not quite. but what she's doing looks a little like it. she's bending the light and creating illusions)

The Tsunamis each begin charging a ball of lightning.

The creature futily tries to defend itself by lifting its arms in front of itself.

All the the Tsunamis charge foreward at high speed and thrust their attacks at the creature. All but the one on it's left vanish while the one remaining slams into the creature hard.

The creature takes the hit, and falls to the ground. It's body turned black, while the green circuitry running through it glowed bright green. It's body then dissappeared, seemingly pixel by pixel, until it completely vanished.

Tsunami's ball of lightning dissipates. Despite the fatigue she used to feel after using too many electric attacks, she seems to have just as much energy as when she began. Her face still expressionless, Tsunami walks over to Orochimaru and allows him to slither back onto her shoulders.

More soldiers started appearing on the scene, wearing armor similar to the behemoth creature.

Tsunami sighs, as if only slightly irritated. She begins emitting powerful electricity from every part of her body, electricuting all of the soldiers at once.

The soldiers were slightly phased by the shock, but their armor protected them from too much damage.

The man observing their fight watched with a look of bored interest. 'Well, that was...something, I suppose. Nothing to worry about though." He then scanned the area on his screen, and spotted a lone hedgehog walking in the street, standing in Beat and Ciel's path. "I wonder what he can do?" the figure asked himself.

(No offense Numbuh, but let someone else get a chance to insert their characters, okay?)

The hedgehog turned around, and the man could see his face. He was casually eating an ice cream cone, as if he knew nothing about what was going on. His eyebrows rose slightly when he saw Beat and Ciel heading directly towards him.

"Hey," Beat said to him, "If your heading down that way, watch out for giant metal monsters."

The hedgehog's curious smile changed to a blank expression. It took him a few moments to let that sink into his mind, though it was almost instantly when he heard a lot of commotion off in the distance. "I wasn't.." He said. "What the heck is going on?"

Ciel could hear the sound of armor clanking together off in the distance. She grabbed Beat's arm. "They're coming!"

Beat looked at the hedgehog. "We gotta get outta here," he said. He ran to hide inside a nearby restaurant, motioning for the hedgehog to join him.

He looked at the two at the restaurant, and then off in the distance towards where he could hear the metal clanking coming closer. A sweat drop rolled down the side of his face. "Wait for me!" He suddenly called out as he dashed inside.

The trio waited in the restaurant, apparently chinese, while they waited for the soldiers to go away.

"By the way, what's your name?" Beat asked the hedgehog.

"Me? I'm Splice." He said, looking away from the window. "Who are you guys?"

"I'm Beat, and she's Ciel." Beat then turned his head to Ciel. Splice followed behind him. "Do you know why those guys are after you?"

She bowed her head, as if trying to hide her face. "Yes."

"Well, why?"

"Because.....I'm not from this dimension. Somebody wants to use my powers to do,well...let's just say 'bad things'."

"W-what..!?" Splice gasped. "Another dimension...?" He slowly buried his face in both of his palms. "Oh, no. Not agaaain...I've had enough of this dimensional crap since the disaster last year!"

"Huh?" Beat asked. "You mean the whole Nusquam incident?"

"That too!" He said. "Though I was referring to something a little worse that happened before that. Long story."

Their reminicing was interrupted when the silver soldiers from before broke down the door of the restaurant, causing many people to drop their chopsticks.

"Where is the girl!!" They shouted almost in unison.

Splice was so startled, he threw his ice cream cone up into the air. It landed right on top of his head, cone side up. With ice cream dripping down his face, He nudged Beat and whispered. "Get her outta here!" He told him, barely moving his mouth. He walked towards the soldiers, glaring fiercely at them. "What's the big idea, huh? You made me waste my ice cream!" He yelled at them. "I don't know or care what girl you're looking for. Get outta here, you're disturbing the customers!"

The soldiers raised their guns to Splice. "Move or get shot," one of them said. Sudden;y, Ciel got up and jumped in front of the soldiers, blocking Splice. "Here I am." She said. Beat immediately rushed to her side. "Are you crazy!? Aren't these the guys who're after you?" he asked. "Relax," she replied. The soldiers fired, but their targets had vanished.

Beat and Splice found themselves falling through a spiralling tunnel of colors. "What the?" Beat said. Suddenly, they both hit hard, pure-white ground. When they looked up, they saw that they were in a world of...absolute nothingness. There was only flat white ground as far as the eye could see, which met the blank grey sky at the horizon.

"What the, wait what, hold up, HUH!?" Splice stammered, looking around in confusion. "Where the heck...?"

"Sorry for bringing you guys here," Ciel said, standing behind them. "This place is called the 'Blank Point'. It's an empty dimension that goes on forever. I had to get us out of there, but since I used my power, he knows I'm in here now."

"Okay, great. How the heck do we get outta here?" He asked, looking worried.

"Follow me," Ciel said. Beat silently obeyed. If she got them in here, she could get them out. Ciel walked a few feet forward, then opened up a rectangular image of a street in Station Square. "Through here."

Splice looked closely at the image. "Hm, doesn't look like those soldiers are around." He said. "Alright, lets go."

One after the other, they stepped through the image, which rippled like water as they passed through. They found themselves back in Station Square, not a soldier in sight yet they could still hear the sound of gunfire and battle in the distance.

"We need to get out of here," Beat said. "Where can we go where they won't find us"

Splice looked around. "I dunno..." He said, quietly. He thought for a few moments. "I'd hate to draw them there, but I think it'd be best if we went to Green Flower City." He looked at the two. "I have some friends over there that could help out."

"Green Flower huh. I think one of my friends are there right now!"

Meanwhile, a figure stood atop a nearby building, watching the heroes. He made not a sound, moved not an inch, only watched. Watched and listened. Soon after their discussion, he vanished without a trace.

Ciel sensed a presence nearby, but ignored it and followed Beat and Splice as they led the way to Greenflower City.

Cold:(Drops from a tree)Hmmmm.

Flame:(Falls from a tree)Ow.

Lisa:(Lands on Flame)What?

Flame:Get off.

Skate:(Also drops from the tree).....

(What are all of them doing in a tree?)

(It's a gag,I call it tree gag,to make people laugh)

"Huh?" Beat tured around to see what all the comotion was about. "Who the heck are you guys?"

Flame:We've been spotted!

"Who are you supposed to be?" Ciel asked.

Cold:I'm Cold.

Flame:I'm Flame

Skate:Names Skate.

Lisa:And I'm Lisa!

"Were you spying on us? Are you working for those soldiers?" Beat asked, getting agitated.

Cold:Does it look like?

"No, They aren't-"

Before Splice could finish, another metal behemoth burst from a nearby building, roaring and ready to attack.

"Dammit! Don't these things give up?" Beat said.

"OH CRAP WHAT THE HECK IS THAT!?" Splice yelled at the top of his lungs.

Flame:WHAT IS THAT!?

Beat creates a large blue disk on the ground below all of them, and quickly lifts everyone into the air on it. They are now too high for the behemoth creature to reach it. "Looks like these guys are coming in for the ride. Where to Green Flower, Splice?"

Cold:What took you so long?

Splice clutched his chest, trying to calm himself down. "It's just south from here!" He said. But if that thing can see us going there, there's no doubt it'd follow us or call the others. Lets try to lose it first!" He suggested.

Suddenly, Tsunami appears behind the behemoth with her back to it. The blade of her sword is embedded in the ground in front of her. After a short delayed reaction, the behemoth feels a slice to it's front legs.

'Well," Beat started, "that was convenient." Ciel gave Tsunami an annoyed look of gratitude. Beat yelled at Tsunami, "I'd give you a ride but I don't think I can take anyone else!"

"Forget it." Tsunami calls back, her voice flat and emotionless, "I didn't do it for you. I'm simply testing my abilities on these creatures."

"Yeah, like we needed you anyway," Ciel said as Beat directed the disk towards Green Flower City.

Part 1B: Green Flower City
As the city came into view, Splice held his hand above his eyes, scanning the area. "Doesn't look like anyone followed us." He said. "Okay, so we're gonna need to land...mmm..." He thought for a bit. "We should probably talk to Smash about this first, so lets land over by the western entrance to the city." He pointed to the direction he spoke of.

"You're the captain," Beat said as he turned the disk to the side, heading in the direction Splice indicated. "So, what to we do when we get there?" he asked.

"Well, First things first we need to discuss what we're gonna do about those guys." He said. "What they're after, their true motives, and what they're capable of. We can't run forever." He shook his head. "Sooner or later, we're gonna have to turn around and fight back. If it comes to that, we'll need all the help we can get."

A transparent wall made entirely of glowing green, computer-like circuits suddenly materialized in front of them. "Whoa!" Beat immediately swerved to the side, causing his passengers to grip the edge of the disk to prevent themselves from falling off. "What was that?" Beat asked.

"Oh no!" Ciel shouted. "He's here!" Just as she said this, another wall appeared in front of them again. Beat wasn't fast enough to react, he ran into it full force. The disk they were riding shattered, and the entire group fell to the streets below.

Splice screamed as he fell to the ground. Just before landing, he performed a backflip and landed on his feet. "Who and WHAT the heck is that!?" He cried out.

???:I am Edward.Not a villain though.

(What? You can't just randomly put yourself in like that, especially with what's happening right now :/ Possibilities are Endless - Banzai123 22:57, May 8, 2011 (UTC))

Beat manages to create a small net of energy to break everyone's fall, except his own. He landed quite ungracefully on Splice. "Owww! Sorry about that," he said apologetically, "looks like we're going on foot."

Splice had landed in a sort of cool manner, but having Beat land on him ruined it. He was flat on the ground until he got off. "Nice.." He mumbled, rubbing the back of his head. "I don't know what that thing is, but we'd better hurry. This way!" He began to run down the street, leading them towards Smash's house.

"He shouldn't have much control over the area yet," Ceil started as she followed Splice, "I'll explain everything once we get...wherever we're going!"

"We're almost there, Don't worry!" He called back. He pointed down near the end of the street they were on to a rather large house. "That's it right over there!"

However, more circuit walls, albeit smaller, began appearing along the road leading to the house, turning the road into a track-and-field track. Beat simply blasted through the walls using his energy waves, and Ciel, surprisingly athletic, easily jumped over the ones in her way.

Splice slowed down and followed behind Beat as he cleared the path. Once they finally reached the house, Splice ran up the steps to the front door and pounded on it. "Smash! You home!? We got a situation here!" He called out.

The door soon opened to reveal a blue echidna. "What's going on?" He asked with a serious look. "And who are these guys behind you?"

"We'll explain everything. Can we come in?" Smash nodded and stepped aside, letting them all in.

Once inside, everyone got themselves comfortable, exhausted from the trip to get there. Beat then looked to Ciel, motioning for her to begin her explanation.

"To start things off," Smash started. "Who are you two?"

"I'm Beat the Cat. And that's Ciel, the cause of all this mess," he said, more bitterly than he had intended.

Ciel looked down to the ground. "Sorry for all the trouble. I'll explain everything now."

"No need," said a voice that came fron nowhere.

Beat immediately got up and entered a fighting stance. "Who's there?"

"Oh, you mean me?" said a grey figure, clad in a white cloak, who suddenly materialized in the center of the room.

Smash stood up immediately. "Haven't you ever heard of a door? Most people use those things to enter a room." He snarked at the figure. "Who are you and what are you doing in here!?"

Ciel jumped up and aimed her finger at the figure. "That's the guy who's responsible for all of this! That's V!"

"V?" Beat asked. "You're parents got lazy naming you?"

"V isn't my real name, not that it matters. I came here to tell you not to get involved with this girl and her problems. Just sit back and let evolution take its course."

"Evolution? What the crap are you talking about?" Smash asked.

"Evolution?" A vein mark formed on the side of his face. "Was it evolution that caused that crazy army to go around shooting whoever got in their way just to capture a single girl!? Was it freaking evolution that caused who knows how many people to die today!?" He yelled at the figure angrily.

"You seem like the kind of person who likes to talk. Maybe I should shut you up before you get on my nerves." V then continued his explanation. "I have already taken over several dimensions. This one is just another step in the evolution of all existence. But the biggest thing standing in my way is her."

"Of course I'm standing in your way! Any person with any sense of right and wrong would!"

"You have been a pain in my side for too long. Just give up and we can end this endless game of tag."

"Conquering dimensions!?" Smash exclaimed. ''You FOOL! Going through dimensions like this so freely, don't you realize what you could do!?'' He thought, angrily. I'm pretty sure this dimension is barely stable as it is from the past few events!

"What are you trying to accomplish, conquering dimensions like this?" Splice asked. "What is this evolution thing you're doing?"

"I'm not going to waste time trying to explain my plans to people who know so little. But I warn you. You do not want to get involved. Many have tried to stop me, and all have failed. So, what is your position?"

"You wanna know what MY position is?" Smash spoke up. "I'm freaking sick and tired of these people who come in thinking they can do whatever the crap they want! And even moreso sick of people who barge, warp, distort time or space or whatever into my HOUSE. My house is not some sort of dang tourist spot! And this dimension ain't your playground! It's already been abused enough as it is! I'm not going to let anyone just simply go around messing with it with their "Ultimate Plan for Evolution" or whatever the crap you're doing."

V just scoffed. "You have no idea how many times I've heard that speech before. What are you going to do? You have no power." He then sighed. "But things have been getting so dull lately. Fine. If you want to help this girl, go ahead. I'll continue playing for a little while longer, but, once the game ends, I will be the undisputed winner."

Beat couldn't take it anymore. He ran up to V and punched him in the face, only to find himself falling on his face. It was simply a projection.

Smash growled. "These people, I swear..." He sat back down, leaning his head on his fist. "As we were saying...?"

"Is there anything else that needs to be said?" Ciel started, "Do you want to let V take over this world?"

"There is more to be said, actually." Smash stated. "You already know where I stand on this situation, so lets not get into that. But what we need is a plan. How do we plan to stop this guy? This isn't like your average villain where we can just waltz right up to his hideout and beat the crap outta him. He's already conquered several other DIMENSIONS. Who's to say he's even still in this dimension? And what about this army thing Splice mentioned?"

"Yeah, he's got this army after you." He said. "Crazy troops, Hulking armored monsters, etc."

"Plus, we can't do this alone." Smash added. "If it's That bad, We gotta come prepared."

"Didn't you hear him?" Ciel continued, "V enjoys games. That's his one weakness. He views everything as some kind of game. Right now, our challenge is to stop him from at least taking over this dimension. Without me, his progress is considerably slowed. If he's able to control this part of the world, then he's already managed to plant his 'mark', meaning he's been in this dimension for at least two years. Luckily he isn't finished planting it, so we can go destroy it."

"Two Years..?" Smash's eyebrows rose. "That's disturbing. That means he's been here before any of the dimensional problems started up at all."

"Anyway, Where is this 'mark'?" Splice asked. "If destroying it is all we need to do, then lets hurry up and do it!" He looked at Ciel, a bit worried. "It's only a matter of time before those troops come over here."

Ciel was witholding some information, an Beat could tell. she thought that they would help her if they didn't know the full story. "I...don't know. But what I do know is that we need to leave this area. V can control this part of the world, so we should get out of here before he does anything. Maybe...the other side of the world?"

"Are you crazy? How are we going to get there? I don't think V will let us take a plane!" Beat said.

"I don't know if he'll let us take a ship, either." Smash added. "But we have to try. I know a guy who'd be more than willing to lend us a ship."

Flame:Well lets go.

"Okay the," Beat said, "let's go!"

V was back in his citadel, observing the heroes in his monitor. "This might actually be fun," he said, although he kept an emotionless expression on his face.

Cold:(@ V)Yeah right?

(Hey Smash I thought of this move Smash and Cold can do.:))

Smash looked at Flame. "Where the heck did you come from?"

"He was kinda with us for a bit, but I thought he fell behind." Splice mentioned, scratching his head. "I didn't see him come in...Anyway, we don't have time for that. Lets hurry."

Smash lead them outside. "We need to head to the docks." He said. "It's all the way on the other side of town."

Flame(@ Smash)A Tree(points at a tree).

Skate:Lets go Flame(follows Smash).

Lisa:(Follows Skate)...

Smash looked at the two others, completely baffled by their sudden appearance.

Strangely, the port was deserted when they arrived there. Even more strange was the fact that the group had no trouble getting there.

"I don't like this." Smash muttered. "Where the heck is everyone?" He looked around, somewhat uneasily.

"Let's begin," V's voice sounded throughout the area.

"Wha-" Smash froze, now on the alert. Splice looked around quickly, trying to figure out where he heard the voice coming from.

Cold:?

Skate:Huh?

Lisa:.....?

Flame:???

Suddenly, a humanoid figure clad in black armor covered in green circuits appeared from a distortion in space in front of the group, firing a barrage of energy bullets.

Beat reflexively created a barrier to shield the group, reflecting the bullets. As soon as the barrier came up, the figure stopped.

Splice and Smash both put their guards up at the same time, but saw that there was no need.

Cold:(Looked at Splice and Smash)Hmph.

"I have orders to destroy all of you." It said in a robotic yet vaguely life-like voice. "Please surrender and make this easier for yourselves."

"Surrender and let ourselves die a quick death in humiliation of our cowardice?" Smash scoffed. "I don't think so. If you think you can kill us, then just try to!"

Cold:Over my dead rotting body.

Lisa:(Laughs)HA,What do you say guys should we give it to him?

"It's you," Ciel said. "Why are you fighting for him after what he did to your home?"

"If you cannot defeat him, the best solution is to join him." Then the figure pulled out a green energy saber and attacked the group.

Cold:(Does Spindash and attacks the figure)

Skate:(Also Does Spindash and attacks the figure)

Flame:(Also Does Spindash and attacks the figure)

The figure reappears behind the group and, after a brief moment, Cold, Skate and Flame feel the pain of being cut by his blade.

Cold&Flame&Skate:(Falls to the ground)

Skate:A friend showed me this,CHAOS HEAL(Heals Cold,Flame,and his wounds)!

(no offense but it's kind of annoying how you just go (name of attack):*this happens* instantly with no transition or any form of action. Try actually describing what happens instead of just stating it. It helps others to understand what's going on and makes the story look better. Possibilities are Endless - Banzai123 21:20, May 9, 2011 (UTC))

(not what I meant, but okay)

"A mere set back," the figure said.

"Who are you?" Beat asked.

"My name is Marz. Now good-bye."

((He's leaving? Dang it. I didn't get to do anything. These edit conflicts, I swear. >_>; ~Smash The Echidna~ http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100421224452/sonicfanon/images/0/04/Smash_life.png 21:21, May 9, 2011 (UTC) ))

(No, he's saying good bye because he's going to kill them :PPossibilities are Endless - Banzai123 21:22, May 9, 2011 (UTC))

(WTF!0_0~T-man67~)

((Oh. Good, because I thought that was it.))

Splice held his hands out beside him, seemingly charging up a skill. He then put both of his hands out in front of him and fired numerous icicles at the armored man.

Smash stood by, waiting for the opportune moment to land a blow.

With a flurry of sword slashes, the icicles all fell at Marz's feet, all of them cut in half. His sword then formed into a gun, and he fired several shots of green energy at Splice.

Cold:(Glows and fuses)

Flame:(Glows and fuses)

Colame:Ready.

Splice quickly dodged them all without much of a problem. As he was dodging them, Smash quickly came up to his side and attempted to knock the gun out of his hand.

Colame:(Fallows Smash)

When Smash gor close enough, Marz quickly flipped the gun around in his hand, and transformed it back into a blade, attempting to stab Smash with it.

Colame:Tag move!(flings out Cold)

(It's a blade of pure energy. You can't exactly hold it otherwise your hands would get cut off Possibilities are Endless - Banzai123 21:43, May 9, 2011 (UTC))

Smash quickly sidestepped the jab, and whirled around to give him a punch to his side.

Splice ran over to join in. He threw a flaming spin kick towards his back.

Cold:(As Cold flies through air he Kicks Marz in the face)

Marz used his blade to block Splice's kick, while moving to the side ever so slightly to avoid Smash's punch. However, Colame's attack caught him by surprise and he was knocked some a few meters backwards by the kick. "Another minor setback," he said, rubbing his helmet-covered head.

Splice and Smash backed up a bit to regroup. "We're gonna have to work together if we wanna beat this guy." Smash said to the group.

Cold:(A blue dragon appears)ICE DRAGON FIST(going to punch Marz in the face hard)!

(I keep forgetting!X

Marz ducks under the attack, and attacks Cold with a powerful uppercut to his chin.

Cold:AH,Damn It!

Splice held both of his hands out in front of him and shot a long stream of flames at Marz in a flame thrower fashion. Smash once again waited for the opportune moment to strike.

Flame:(Does spindash and attacks Marz)

Skate:(Also Does spindash and attacks Marz)

Cold:(Falling down)A LITTLE HELP!

Smash ran under him and caught him. "You okay, man?" He asked before setting him down.

Cold:Yeah(Gets on his feet),You ready to take on death?

"This is just the beginning...!" He cracked his knuckles. "Lets do it."

Cold:(Spits out blood)Do it till we lose it man(Powers up).

(Wait I forgot Cold always has the Chaos Emeralds.:D)

((I don't think it's very fair of Cold always has the Chaos Emeralds. I think it's best that we leave them out until Banzai does something with them, if he does. For now, Rely on your own strength.))

(Come on. You can't always have the Chaos Emeralds. I mean, they are the Chaos Emeralds. IMO its kind of god moddy that a character just happens to have ultimate power with them at all times. Also, for reasons unknown they tend to scatter themselves everytime they're used, so you can't just hang onto them. Possibilities are Endless - Banzai123 19:09, May 10, 2011 (UTC))

Marz looked up to the sky, and said, "I've stalled them long enough. You can go ahead." Space rippled around his body, and he vanished.

Smash and Splice looked around. "He's gone.." Splice said.

"Stay sharp, everyone." Smash said. "I've got a bad feeling about this."

"Uh, is anyone seeing this!?" Beat said shakily, pointing right in front of him. The sea and the horizon appeared to be rising, as if folding over the city like a piece of paper, yet the water and everything in it stayed in one place.

Smash looked horrified. "What the crap...!?" He didn't even know what to do, he was stunned.

"I don't know about you, but I think we should get the heck outta here!" Splice cried out.

"HOLY CRAP!!" Ciel shouted, and suddenly everything was enveloped in a bright flash of light.

The characters found themselves hurtling down a colourful tunnel with random streaking lights.

"What the CRAP!? Wha-" Smash was interrupted by his own bewilderedness.

"This again.." Splice said quietly.

"Whoa! Ciel what the?"

"I don't know! It just activated!" she replied. "Everyone, try to stick together! If you get separated, we could get scattered across the dimensions!"

"oh lord." Smash flatly said.

However, everyone could feel some force pulling them in several directions. Then another bright flash of light, and everyone was gone, scattered across dimensions.

(Okay everyone, here's where things get weird/cool. Everyone who was in Station Square/ near it got sucked into the rift, and scattered across the cosmos like the others, so new characters can still join.Possibilities are Endless - Banzai123 23:28, May 10, 2011 (UTC))

Part 2: New Worlds
(The characters that were in the rift got separated and were sent to different dimensions. Below are the different worlds they were sent to. If you want to add in new characters, follow Banzai's example and pretend they were sucked into the rift as well. You can add in new characters in whatever dimension you like. Possibilities are Endless - Banzai123 23:30, May 10, 2011 (UTC))

Blussora
Beat woke up with a massive headache. He grabbed his head, and noticed Splice lying next to him. When he looked around, he noticed that several things were off. Firstly, the sky was bright purple, yet sunny, there were giant vines and flowers all over the place, and he and Splice were lying on a massive leaf, with some kind of fencing made of intertwining vine encircling it.

"What the?" he said, consumed by his confusion.

"Where the heck am I?" said a familiar voice. Beat looked to his right and saw his old friend, Banzai, lying on the leaf, clutching his head.

"What are you doing here!?" Beat jumped up, unsure whether to be happy or worried.

"I was flying here to see what was going on in the city, when...stuff happened."

"uungh,,," Splice sat up and rubbed his head. "what happened...?" His eyes slowly widened as he realized where they were. "Wait a minute, where the heck...?" He looked around. "Beat...BANZAI!? What the he-"

"H-Hey! Someone, help!" A female voice cried out. Somewhere near them, a pink echidna with purple hair was tangled up in a heap of vines.

"Hold on!" Banzai said, and tore the vines off the echidna. "Looks like you got wound up in this too."

Tendril rises out of the shadows not far away.

Splice ran over to her.

"T-thanks.." She said. "Wait, I know you. You're Banzai, right?" She asked.

"Pearl, what're you doing here?" Splice asked.

"I dunno...I was on my way back home but these weird things started happening." She explained. "I can't exactly describe it. Then I started flying through the sky and...that's all I can remember."

"That's about the same thing that happened to all of us." Beat said.

"Well, at least we're all together, and there don't seem to be any enemies around," Banzai said.

"Yeah, but, uh, Ciel's our ticket out of here and she's not here," Beat said.

"Great." Splice sulked. "So what do we do now?"

Pearl stood up. "I'm not sure who Ciel is, or what exactly's going on here..." She looked like she wanted to say more, but didn't know what.

"So how are we gonna get back?" Tendril asks.

Tendril had startled Beat and Banzai. "Uh, I dunno. And you are?"

Splice looked over at him. "Did you get caught up in this, too?" He asked

"My name's Shade, but other peoples call me Tendril."

"HALT! RAISE YOUR HANDS IN THE AIR." shouted a loud voice from behind all of them.

Splice leaped into the air, frightened at the loud voice. He landed with his hands in the air. "Don't Shoot! Don't Shoot!!" He cried out.

Pearl nearly had a heart attack.

Tendirl turns toward the voice, but does as he's told so as not to start an unnecessary conflict.

Beat was scared out of his wits, and Banzai plaaced his hands on his head as if bombs had gone off. When they turned around, they could see a group short, yet human-like beings, with pale skin and a single plant stalk sticking out of their heads, leaves and all. They all carried strange guns seemingly made of vines.

Splice was sweating bullets. He did NOT want to get shot by one of those weird guns. Pearl held her hands in the air and just prayed that they'd get out safely.

"Who are you, and where did you come from?" One of them asked.

"W-We come in peace!" Splice cried out. "M-my name's Splice..!"

"I am called Tendril," Tendril replies calmly.

"I'm Beat. No wait, that's my name. I don't really feel tired."

"My name's Banzai. Could you please put down those guns? We're just as confused as you are."

"Put down your weapons." A plant-person with foliage like hair and a beard that looked like a green shrub walked up to the group. He was dressed in long red robes that had a vague leaf-like texture to them. Just as he had ordered, the soldiers put down their weapons. The elder one simply looked at them, then back to his soldiers. "Their energy isn't hostile. They truly do come in peace."

Splice let out a sigh of relief, and put his hands down. Pearl held her chest, taking deep breaths.

"Don't relax yet. You're still strangers in this world. Follow me." The elder then walked into the stem of a gigantic flower, with holes meant to be, and the size of windows dotted all over its surface.

Tendril quietly follows the elder.

Splice and Pearl obediently followed the elder. They were soon walking up a spiral staircase inside the flower stalk. "So, what brings you here?" he asked.

"Uh...actually..." Pearl's voice trailed off. She didn't even know.

"Well you see the thing is," Splice began to answer for her. "There's this dimensional menace going around screwing up all the dimensions and whatnot. Lets just say we got thrown over here in an accident because of him." He explained.

"This menace wouldn't happen to be V, would it?"

Pearl looked at them in confusion. She had no idea what they were talking about.

"That's our guy." He said. "I'm guessing he's caused some trouble around here too, huh?"

"He's taken over most of this world. Arolf is one of the few cities he hasn't taken over yet. Sadly, he's going to come after us soon."

"He's also already gotten the part of our world where we live, which made it really difficult to do anything." Splice noted. "What are we supposed to do against a guy like that...?"

"Fight him," the elder said, "even if it seems like a lost cause, we must continue to fight. Even if we do not defeat him, we can at least weaken his forces so the next dimension he goes after will have it easier."

"...You guys are strong." Splice said, softly. "You don't hear that coming from locals very often. It's usually the adventurous, foolhardy individuals that say stuff like that." He looked up. "Of course I'm one of them. That's what our plan was from the beginning. But I think we all got separated, and our "Guide" who could travel between dimensions isn't with us, so we're kinda stuck now. Who knows where they all are?"

"Everyone's separated?" Pearl asked. "Who else was with you?"

"Ciel, Flame and his other friends. And Smash was with us too." Splice said.

"Ciel? She's helping you?" the elder asked. "But I -- never mind. Your friends will get in touch with you soon, so don't worry."

Splice tilted his head to the side. Does he know Ciel? He wondered.

"So..What do we do now?" Pearl asked.

"Well, I can try to contact nearby dimensions to see if your friends have landed there. I can't promise anything but it's worth a try."

Splice nodded. "It's all we've got."

"Okay then, let's --" the elder was cut off mid sentence by a loud explosion. "What was that?"

A soldier walked in. "We're under attack! V's forces have found us!"

"Oh, GREAT." Splice slapped his forehead.

"I guess it'll have to wait, huh?" Pearl asked.

When they reached outside, they could see a massive army of white armored soldiers and beasts heading towards the city off in the distance.

"I dunno about you guys, but I feel like knocking a few of their heads," Banzai said, punching his hand.

"Then why don't we do just that?" Splice grinned.

Pearl cracked her knuckles. "They'll pay for all of this. I'll make sure of it." She said quietly, yet angrily.

Tendril's shadow blades appear on his arms. "I like that idea," he replies.

Tendril's appearance gave Banzai another heart attack. "Will you stop doing that?" he snapped.

"So you're just going to charge and attack them head on? You need a plan first!" The elder advised, but Banzai was already riding his staff to the battlefield.

Splice looked back at him. "How about this? Since some of us have already charged forward, we'll go out and face them head on and distract them, while you gather up the remaining troops and ambush them from behind?" He suggested.

"All right. I know your group is powerful. If you're sure of it, go ahead. We'll see what we can do."

"Yeah!" Tendril says, "This is gonna be fun!" He charges foreward, boosted by shadows.

The silver soldiers were marching in several rows, all moving as one large body. Suddenly there was a large explosion in their ranks, causing them to go frantic like ants. Banzai hovered on his staff overhead, his hand still glowing witht he blast of energy he just fired. "Three down, about 800 to go," he said.

Beat got into the action as well, appearing in front of several soldiers. As they raised their guns to fire, Beat created a large wall of cyan-blue energy in front of them, and pushed it back, sending several soldiers sprawling backwards.

"Weapon Style: Shadow Blades!" Tendril shouts. Multiple blades of shadows form all over his body. He curls into a ball covered in shadow spikes and rolls straight into the army.

Several shots were fired at Tendril, but they simply bounced off as he rammed into them, sending them flying comically like bowling pins.

A large behemoth like creature, covered in silver armor with green circuits, walked up to Tendril. It roared, and then reared itself and attacked.

Tendril uncurls and leaps straight up, aiming to slice the monster's chest open with one of his shin blades.

"Leave the big guy to me!" Splice called out as he ran towards it at an abnormally high speed. He rapidly picked up speed, and suddenly his entire body burst into flames. He lunged at the behemoth's neck, ready to deal a powerful body slam.

The behemoth noticed Splice and Tendril coming from afar, raised its paw and swiped at them with the back of its paw.

Tendril dissolves into shadows and reforms so he can still strike.

Splice just managed to pass right by the paw and continue his course towards it's chest.

The creature took the attack full force, it's armor burnt and damaged by the attack. Banzai then suddenly fell from the sky, and slammed his heavy staff into the creature's head, killing it. "Another one down!" he shouted.

More soldiers continued advancing, and fired several shots at the heroes.

Splice was about to give Banzai a high five, but the soldiers came and began shooting at them. "Heads up! Splice called out. He used the dead behemoth as a shield as he began to create a wall of ice.

Banzai ducked behind the beast's carcass as well. "Got a plan?" he asked Splice.

"Yeah, Kinda." He said. "I'm gonna make a big ol'-"

Tendril doesn't even wait for an answer. He charges at the soldiers, each bullet that hits him goes through him as if he were made entirely of shadows. When he reaches the soldiers, he begins slashing at them with the shadow blades covering him with a strange lust for violence that doesn't seem to be his own.

"That looks like a good enough plan," Beat said sarcastically, and immediately started firing a volley of energy blasts from his hands.

"Something's not right," Banzai said, "these guys are a bit...weak, don't you think?"

"Don't care!" Tendril shouts, quite obviously enjoying himself, "These things couldn't hurt even if they were stronger!" His voice sounds different. A little deeper and slightly more sinister.

Splice blinked, watching them rush out and beat them down by themselves. "...Yeah. They're nothing like the guys in Station Square, I'm sure." His expression turned serious. "I've got a bad feeling about this."

((Please, stop edit conflicting me. :< ~Smash The Echidna~ http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100421224452/sonicfanon/images/0/04/Smash_life.png 22:49, May 31, 2011 (UTC) ))

(sorry, i didn't even know you were on)

"Wait a second," Beat said before flying into the air. From high up in the sky, he could see what he expected to see. He returned to the others. "Uh, guys? They're this weak because they're only the first wave. While I was in the sky, no matter how high I was, I couldn't see the end of them."

"What!?" Banzai shouted in disbelief.

Splice's eyes shrank as Pearl just caught up to them. "Ohh, noo...." He whimpered.

"About my plan. I was gonna make a wall big and thick enough to block all their attacks, and shove it into them and hopefully smash them against something back there. I just need to make it big enough."

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">Tendril stops fighting and returns to the others. His shadow blades shatter into pieces, the tiny, jagged shards shooting out at the soldiers.

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">"One big attack huh," Banzai said, and began building up energy in his hands. "This might drain me for a while, but here goes! FINAL CHAOS BLAST!!" He shouted, extending his arms forward, shooting a massive blast of energy at the oncoming soldiers, destroying scores of them. After the attack, Banzai collapsed and fell to the ground.

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">"Banzai!" Splice cried out. Pearl rushed to his aid, holding him in her lap. Splice continued to create the ice wall until it was finally large enough to shove the remaining soldiers back. "Alright! Lets do it!" He called out, standing in front of it. He held both of his hands out to his sides, and then swung them horizontally in a slicing motion. He shot two crescent shaped streams of flames at the bottom of the ice, going right through the wall. He then ran into it, and started sliding the wall towards the army, gradually picking up speed until he was running pretty fast.

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">The soldiers weren't expecting that. They fired futily at the wall of ice, byt were eventually pushed back like piles of trash. Men and beasts alike assembled into one big pile as Splice rammed into them with his wall of ice. Beat hovered above the ice wall, riding on a translucent disk of cyan energy. He had created two smaller walls of energy to push back any soldiers Splice missed, and flew at Splice's pace towards the oncoming army.

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">Splice felt it gradually getting harder to push. He kept pushing as hard as he could to maintain his speed. He looked up at Beat above his head, helping along the way. "Whaddya say we pile up the whole army?" He called out.

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">"Sure thi --" Beat started, but was cut off when a massive dragon-like creature covered in silver armor knocked him right out of the sky with a powerful swipe.

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">Splice gasped. "Beat!" He cried out.

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">Tendril flies up on wings of shadow and catches Beat.

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">"Thanks man," he said.

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">"No problem," Tendril replies. He sets Beat down and flies back up to face the dragon. He clutches his left wrist and shadows begin swirling in his left palm.

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">The dragon fired a large beam of enegry from its mouth, directly at the heroes.

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">Soon, a sphere of purple lightning appears in Tendril's hand, Dark lightning lancing off of it in all directions. He flies directly at the dragon, thrusting the sphere at the beam, splitting it in half. He continues flying directly at the monster with his Dark Lightning ball in hand.

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">Splice had turned around, now pushing the ice wall with his back as he looked at the dragon. "What on earth...?"

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">The dragon extended its wings, which were lined with small laser cannons. It then fired a flurry of shots at Tendril.

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">Realizing that he could not dodge the lasers and maintain the Dark Lightning at the same time, Tendril allows the sphere to disperse. He then dissolves into shadows, allowing the lasers to pass through him. He absorbs as much of th energy from the lasers has he can while they continue firing.

In a flash of light, his fur lightens in color, becoming gray. He retains his purple streaks, but his eyes chang color from red to yellow. He has now entered Twilight Form.

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">Two other dragons fell from the sky and landed next to the one Tendril was fighting, and appeared to be ready for combat.

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">Tendril looks at the three dragons, wondering which he should go after first. Finally, he fires three large bolts of Twilight energy at the dragons, one bolt at each. Since the light and shadows in the twilight blasts are trying to repel each other, they will explode on impact.

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">The dragons shield themselves with their wings, which manage to withstand the blasst of the attack.

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">As he tries a few more blasts, Tendril notices the portal opening.

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">"Took you guys long enough," Beat said with a smile on his face.

He stops when he notices Tsunami with Orochimaru on her shoulders.

"Are you alright?"

With a smile, he flies down and lands nearby, his shadow wings dissolving afterwards.

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">Burst extended his hand for Tendril to shake it and said, "Haven't seen you in a bit. How've you been?"

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">Tendril shakes the hand and replies, "Not bad. How about you?"

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">"Can't complain," Burst answered, "Inferna's keeping me in check, so that's always good. . ." He stopped himself, just now noticing the three dragons not too far in the distance.

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">Tendril follows his gaze. "Heh. Wanna help take them down?"

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">"You know it!" Burst replied with excitement.

Inferna offers. "Alright," Tendril says, his shadow wings reforming, "Let's go!"

Beat said, hands glowing with cyan blue energy.

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">Pearl and Violet rushed up beside them. "We're in." Pearl said, getting into a battle stance.

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">Meanwhile, Splice was now struggling to keep pushing the ice wall. He was now going at a moderate, almost slow pace. "This is...nngh..." He pushed with all of his might now. Suddenly, He heard a crack. His eyes widened wiht shock as little pieces of ice landed across his face. "...Not good."He looked around, trying to figure out what to do from here. It was then when he saw a familiar face coming towards him. "Wait, it can't be..."

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">"Splice! Get away from that wall!" Smash called out. "The whole thing is gonna collapse!"

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">Splice did as he was told, and ran away from the wall. Several cracks began to appear on the ice. "Smash, How did you get here?"

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">"I'll explain later." He said. "There are several hundred more troops back there behind the wall that haven't gotten hit by that thing." He looked over at Splice. "Think we could do some sort of team attack to take them all out?"

<p style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;">Splice's eyebrows rose with interest. "A team attack? Like...?" Smash began to whisper something into his ear, Splice nodded every few seconds as he listened. "..Alright, Let's do it." He said with a confident grin.

Wevahaet
Smash, Ciel and Cold found themselves lying in sand, only it didn't feel like sand. It felt softer, yet hard at the same time. And it was dull blue. The first thing that hit them about this strange new world was the heat. It was like a furnace. The intense heat may have been because of the three suns hovering in the red sky. Off in the distance, several dome shaped buildings could be seen, apparrently forming a small town.

"Oh, great. Where are we NOW?" Smash groaned as he stood up. "And it's freaking HOT out here!" He looked around. "Is everyone present and accounted for?" He asked. "Ciel..Cold........Violet?" He looked at a purple hedgehog passed out on the ground near them. "What on earth...?" He ran over to her and knelt down beside her. "Hey! Violet! Are you alright?"

A red and orange hedgehog sits up nearby. She slowly stands up, taking in the sight of this new world.

A green hedgehog was walking around with a paper with strange drawings on them. "What does this mean?!" He yelled.

"Uh oh. Looks like the rift I created sucked in some other people. My bad," Ciel said, apologetically, looking to the ground.

"No worries," the red hedgehog replies, "We'll get back somehow."

"Well I don't know. That whole fiasco took a lot of energy out of me. I don't know if I can create another one. What I DO know is the other dimensions thaat rift was linked to. The others got sent to Blussora and Levarious." Ciel said.

Smash looked back at Ciel. "So we're split up then?" He asked. "Great. It's gonna be a while before we get back to Mobius..." He looked down at Violet, who was still unconscious, and lifted her up into his arms. "We gotta get out of this heat. We're all gonna roast if we stay out here!"

The red hedgehog walks over to Ciel and holds out a hand. "Name's Pyra. But I prefer to go by Inferna."

"Hi Inferna. And uh, what are you talking about," Ciel said, looking at the green hedgehog.

The green hedgehog looked at the paper again. "So if I come here, I cold go there." he said.

"Hello?" Ciel spoke to the green hedgehog again.

The green hegdehog looked at Ciel. "Yes?" he answered.

"What are you doing?" she asked.

"Trying to figure out how to get out of here and trying to fingure out how I got here in the first place." he answered.

Off in the distance, a figure approached, masked by the sunlight. His voice could be heard fainlty, calling out to nothingness. "Inferna? Inferna, you here?" As he drew closer to the group, his appearance became visible. His fur was yellow, and his spines were short. He was Burst Pyrite. "Hey... there's people over there," he said to himself, "Inferna?! You over there?"

Inferna turns to the figure. Seeing who it is, she calls out, "Burst!" and runs over to him.

Burst broke into a run as well, embracing Inferna as they met. "There you are! I've been walking for what feels life forever. I wasn't sure if I'd find you again. Any idea where we are?"

"Not a clue," she replies.

"Bummer," Burst sighed, "At least the weather's nice. Who're your friends?"

"I just met them, actually," Inferna answers.

Burst walked towards the others and said to Inferna, "That makes two of us, I guess." He then squinted a bit to make out their figures, and noticed a familiar face. "Hey... aren't you Smash the Echidna?"

Cold:(Wakes up)What the crap happened?

Smash turned to look over at Burst. "Yeah, that'd be me." He answered. "And you're...Burst, if I recall correctly?"

The ground suddenly began to shake violently beneath them.

"Th-th-th-that's my name," Burst replied, trying to keep his balance, "W-w-w-we'll talk later."

Cold:Wait what? Smash fell to a kneeling position from the sudden quake. "C-Crap! W-What's going on here!?" He exclaimed, trying to keep himself from falling over completely.

Inferna leans on Burst in an attempt to keep her balance.

"Why does this seem familiar?" Ciel asked herself. Then it hit her. "Oh crap! We need to get out of --"

But before ahe could say anything else, a huge worm-like creature with four rows of spikes along its body burst out of the ground.

Inferna stares up at the creature, more in shock than fear.

Smash gasped and looked up at it. "What the heck is that, some kind of sand worm!?"

Burst defensively stepped in front of Inferna. Walking the line between bravery and insanity, he called up to the beast, "Hey ugly! What's the big idea? Didn't you mother ever tell you not to interrupt people's conversations?"

"What the CRAP do you think you're DOI-"

"BURST!!" Ciel shouted, interrupting Smash. "Jump outta the way! QUICK!" As soon as she finished warning him, the worm fired a larg energy blast from its mouth, directly at Burst.

Half-expecting that reply, Burst turned, picked up Inferna, and used a blast of fire to propel them out of the attack's range. He then set Inferna down, and went to attack the beast with a flaming spindash.

"Be careful!" Ciel shouted. The worm retaliated by burrowing underground.

Burst uncurled in the air and landed firmly on the ground. He looked back and forth at the sand-like surface they stood on, waiting for the creature to reappear. "What's the matter, scared?" he taunted.

"It's going to attack," Ciel said, "keep your guard up."

Suddenly, Burst felt a sinking feeling below his feet.

"Oh this is not good," Burst said to himself, "Not at all."

Soon, Burst found himself standing in the center of a circle of sinking sand with the diameter of a large bed, fenced by rows of sharp teeth.

"NO!!" Inferna cries. She rockets foreward, pushed by a blast of flame, in an attempt to get Burst away from the creature's jaws.

The creature then emerged from the ground, trapping Inferna in its jaws.

Burst fell back from Inferna's endeavor, landing on the sand next to the beast. "INFERNA!!!" he shouted in anger, shock, and sorrow collectively. In a rage he burst into flames, his fur and flesh becoming coated in metal. He jumped up after the creature, aiming to save Inferna and tear it appart in one fell swoop.

By this time, Smash had put Violet down a safe distance away and ran back towards them. He threw what was known to be his strongest punch at the worm's stomach, which was normally strong enough to crack a person's skull.

(Do worms have a stomach? Possibilities are Endless - Banzai123 01:06, May 13, 2011 (UTC))

((*shrugs* I just meant the part of it below it's mouth that was closest to the ground. We could call it a really long neck, but...~Smash The Echidna~ http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100421224452/sonicfanon/images/0/04/Smash_life.png 01:12, May 13, 2011 (UTC) ))

With the combination of Smash and Burst's attacks, the worm was blown to pieces. Bits of it fell all over the ground. One piece of it appeared to be moving, something lodged under it.

Inferna sits up. "Ugh. Thanks."

The fire surrounding Burst went of, and the metal receeded. He looked as if he had no idea what just happened. "Don't mention it... I'm just happy you're safe."

Smash brushed his hand off. "Lets get the heck outta here before another one comes." He said. "There's some kind of town over there. Lets at least go there for now."

"That sounds like a good idea," Ciel said, "considering the fact that those things hunt in groups."

Cold:(Passes out over the heat)

"Oh my gosh!" Ciel said, running over to him. "Are you okay?"

"All the more reason to hurry." Smash groaned as he was already lifting Violet back up. "Someone carry him and lets go before someone else faints!"

Ciel lifted Cold's arm around her shoulder, and began to head towards town.

Inferna takes Cold's other arm so Ciel doesn't have to support him alone.

"Thank you," Ciel said.

"Don't mention it," Inferna replies with a smile.

The group then headed towards the strange looking town.

All the buldings were shaped like metal igloos, and strange, reptilian creatures inhabited the town. THe group stuck by close together, trying to ignore the glares cast at them by the natives.

Burst walked with his head down. He never liked attention, and the many staring citizens were making him quite uncomfortable.

A few of them, maybe ten, started to encircle them. Something flashed under one of their coats.

Cold:*pants*Guy*pants*s(see things blurry)

Violet stirred in Smash's arms. She was slowly regaining consciousness. Smash was hardly paying any attention to her, not with the locals all giving them the evil eye. He was beginning to wonder if it was safer here or out there. But he immediately noticed the object flash under one person's coat. Oh crap, is that a gun? He thought.

Cold:(Looks at Smash)*pants*Hey buddy*pants*.

Then the group of locals stopped, completely encircling the visitors. Suddenly, one of them had a gun in their hand, pointed direcly at Smash. "Who are you?"

"Uh, can you put down the gun?" Ciel asked.

Smash held his hand up in front of the gun, now holding Violet over his shoulder. "Put the gun down." He said. "We don't want any unecessary commotion."

"And we don't like having strange folk walking around town. Now I ask again, who are you!"

"Put the gun down," another, raptor-like local said, walking up to the group and forcing the other reptile to lower his gun. "My apologies. We're currently at war and people's nerves are on edge."

The other local sneered at the group. "You never answered my question. Who are you guys?"

"Calm down." Smash told him. "My name is Smash The Echidna. My friends and I need a place to stay for at least one day. We'll keep outta your hair if it makes you feel any better, we just need to let our friends here rest and stay out of the scorching heat."

"All right," said the raptor, "you can stay with me...if you can best me in a one-on-one fight."

((We might have to slow down for a bit. I don't know if he mentioned it to you guys, but Numbuh's gonna be gone for a couple days. E-113!  Code name:   Xi  22:35, May 15, 2011 (UTC)))

(Okay then. I'll try to tone it down for a while Possibilities are Endless - Banzai123 22:36, May 15, 2011 (UTC))

Smash gave him a serious look. "I guess seeing unconscious people doesn't move you one bit, huh?" He set Violet down. "Watch her for me. I'll take care of this myself." He said to any one of the people in his group.

"I'm curious as to the extent of your abilities. My name is Kleft." The raptor got into a fighting stance.

"These guys respect fighters," Ciel said, "if they want to know how strong you are they'll fight you."

Kleft then motioned to Smash with his index finger. "Bring it."

Cold:(sweats)Grrrrr.

Smash stared at him for a few seconds. He suddenly bolted towards him very quickly, and threw a powerful punch aiming to pierce through his guard. If he caught the punch, It would still hurt a lot. He held his free hand close by to follow up with another move.

Kleft turned twisted his body to avoid the punch and, as Smash's fist passed in front of him, he grabbed it, lifted Smash over his shoulder and tossed him to the ground judo style.

Cold:(Falls to the ground)

With his free hand, he grabbed Kleft's wrist as he was hurled over his head. He planted his feet hard on the ground behind him, and hurled him over his shoulder in an attempt to throw him a few feet away.

Cold:Damn IT I CAN'T TAKE THIS HEAT!

"Enough of this leap-frog," Kleft said, extending his claws and digging them into Smash's arm. He did the same as Smash, landing perfectly on his feet, only he, with surprising strength, swung Smash in a complete circle before tossing him like some giant blue frisbee.

Smash flew away a few feet, but he stomped his feet towards the ground, allowing him to land sooner. He landed in a kneeling position, and stayed there for a couple of moments before standing up. He was actually a bit dizzy, and was trying to snap out of it before returning to battle. "Hm. Not too shabby." He said. "I'll have to actually put some effort into it this time." This time, he motioned for Kleft to come and make a move.

Kleft jumped high into the air, did several somersaults, and brought his heel down to Smash's head with great force.

Cold:(Turns into steam)

Smash threw himself down onto his back, putting both of his feet into the air to block his kick. He sprung back up, attempting to throw him off balance in the air while landing on his feet. He used both of his hands in mid-air to try and slam against him.

Cold:(Reforms as Dark Cold)Hmph.

Landing in a handstand, Kleft bent his knees and kicked Smash into the air. He then did a small flip backwards, landing on his feet, and waited for Smash's next move.

Dark Cold:Much Better,now I can take the heat.

Smash flipped into the air and then landed in a kneeling position. He didn't seem very hurt, as he stood right back up, flicking his thumb past his nose. "Not bad."

Suddenly, the ground erupted and a large crack appeared between Smash and Kleft, and it kept growing wider and wider, until a silver behemoth creature with glowing green circuits on its body emerged from the ground, about the size of a small building.

"What the CRAP!?" Smash exclaimed.

"What in blazes!?" Kleft shouted, then turned to his comrades. "Get the troops! They're here!"

Burst took a fighting stance at sight of the beast. "Now we're talking! Let's do this!" he shouted to the others.

Smash looked at Burst, then at the beast. "Wait a minute. "They"..? Are these the things they're at war with?" He examined the beast a little closer.

The beast heard his voice, opened its mouth and fired a large ball of green plasma energy at Burst.

"Woah!" Burst called out as he jumped out of the way of the attack. Propelled by a burst of flame, he flew launched himself above the creature and dealt an axe kick to its head.

Smash dodge rolled out of the way of the blast, as it striking the ground next to him would have hurt.

Inferna blasts herself up on her own flames, flying toward the creature, ax in hand.

The creature's armor was hard, and withstood Bursts kick easily, leaving only a small dent. Meanwhile it fired anothe blast of plasma at Inferna.

Burst fell to the ground, his leg in pain. He landed hard on his backside, but got up quickly, only to see the blast of plasma heading for Inferna.

Smash looked at the creature closely. "...Waaait a minute." He slit his eyes at it. ''These things definitely aren't from around here. This could only mean that V is behind this!'' He thought.

(did you have to conflict my edit like that?)

"Weapon Style: Flame Ax!" Inferna yells. She swings her ax at the blast, sending a thin wave of flame out of the blade and slicing the plasma blast in half. She continues flying at the behemoth between the two halfs.

(Whoops, my bad.)

Glad to see Inferna safe, Burst continued his assault with a spindash towards the beast's stomach.

The beast then reared its head, and charged towards Inferna and Burst.

Burst bounced of its solid armour once more, and flew far from the force of its charge. He skidded across the ground, and stood with an annoyed look on his face. His arms became coated in metal as jets of flame spiraled around them.

Inferna dodges to the side to avoid the beast. She lets herself fall, landing lightly on the ground. She kneels and touches one hand to the sand.

After leaping into the air, Burst shot two cyclones of fire at the behemoth.

When teh flames disappeared, the creature's armor was scorched and weakened. It then fired another plasma blast at Burst while he was still in the air.

Burst curled into a ball and coated his spines in metal, shielding himself from the blast. He landed on his feet, still damaged, but mostly ok. "Heh, I've got you now," he said to himself.

Smash had disappeared from the crowd, no where to be seen. While the others were fending off the beast, He had taken Violet away to safety, and began to climb a building next to them. Once he had reached the top, he looked down at the beast fighting the others and coiled up his legs. "Wait for the right moment..." He said to himself, as he focused his energy within him.

The sound of gunfire could be heard from the sky. More of V's soldiers were flying overhead, using jest, and raining energy bullets on the town. More gunfire shot from the ground as well as the natives of the world defended themselves against V's attack.

Smash growled. "They're all over the place..." He muttered to himself. He focused on gathering up his energy while waiting for the right moment to strike. The behemoth didn't appear to be looking at him. Now was his chance. He leaped up into the air, letting out a burst of energy as he transformed into his High Tension state, and came down upon the Behemoth's back, throwing what was known to be his strongest punch, "Skull Cracker". With the armor weakened, his fist would probably break through.

Smash was rewarded with loud cracking sounds as the monster's armor tore appart and the creature fell to the ground, defeated. However, more humanoid soldiers appeared in the town and started firing at the inhabitants.

Smash backflipped off the monster's back and turned to face the troops. "One down, "Who knows how many" left to go!" He said, getting ready to beat the crap outta them.

Inferna stands up again, she seems confused.

"You said it Smash!" Burst replied as he got ready to join his comrad. "You ready for round two?" he proceeded to ask Inferna.

"Let's do it!" Inferna replies, trying to forget her confusion.

"FOOLS!" A voice shouted from atop the damaged behemoth. His entire body was covered in light silver armor, except for his head, which revealed a wolf-like face with long black hair. "You thought things would be that easy?"

Smash whirled around to see the figure on top of the behemoth. "Tch. Who the heck said anything about EASY?"

Burst stood tall and cracked his knuckles. "Tough or not, fun is fun. Am I right?" he said with confidence.

"Ah, Miss Ciel, there you are! Once I take care of your friends, your coming with me!"

Ciel started backing away shyly. "I'm not going anywhere Lucian."

Inferna glances over at Burst. "Cover me," she whispers, "I'm going to try something, but it may take a while."

Dark Cold:(Steps forward)

"No one here is going anywhere." Smash said, sternly. "Unless of course, it's you who's going."

"Do it to it," Burst whispered to Inferna, "I've got your back."

Dark Cold:I'm going to kill this guy,I'm not going to stay here.

"Hahahaha! You think you can beat me? Come on then, lets fight while my troops take care of the town's inhabitants!"

Dark Cold:(Charges at him)

The air around Inferna begins to thicken and even glow faintly as it's energy is drawn into her.

"Must you always be this hot-headed?" said a voice coming from Lucian's wrist.

"Lord V! Forgive me, I merely want to see the limits of their abilities."

"Fine. Just report back when you're done," said V.

Lucian was just finishing his conversation when he noticed Cold coming towards him. He jumped high into the air and levitated to avoid being hit.

Dark Cold:(Does Dark Chaos Blast at Inferna)

(Why are you attacking Inferna? she's on your side Possibilities are Endless - Banzai123 20:41, May 31, 2011 (UTC))

Confused, Burst ran between Cold and Inferna, and put up a fire barrier to block the Blast. "Dude! What's your problem?! This clown is the bad guy!" he shouted, gesturing to Lucian.

Smash looked over at Cold. "Get a HOLD of yourself!" He snapped at him, before turning to Lucian. "Let's get this over with." He motioned for him to make a move."

"Thanks, guys," Inferna says. Smoke begins to billow from her, though she doesn't seem to notice.

Lucian pointed his right index finger at the group, and, suddenly, a powerful yet small lazer beam shoots out of it.

Smash dodged it with ease, making sure he was away from the spot it struck in case it caused a small explosion.

Dark Cold:(Has a head ache)Don't yell at me,I'm in my dark form make me angry I will turn on everybody.

Lucian swung his finger, the beam acting like an extra long energy blade that sliced through the ground and a few locals like it was nothing, and tried to hit the others with the beam.

Smash kartwheeled over the laser, but then turned around to see other people getting hit and killed by it. He turned back, growling at Lucian. ''We need to figure out how to get close to this guy. With attacks like that, he's not easily approachable. Not to mention he's got the higher ground. ''He thought.

The smokescreen billowing from Inferna has thickened by now.

Dark Cold:I can't take it anymore!(Flies up in the sky)

As Burst jumped back and forth to avoid the beam, a soldier came down from atop a nearby building and attempted to strike him with a blade of energy. Burst narrowly avoided the attack and slid backwards, taking a defensive stance. "Perhaps you could use some backup, sir," the soldier said to Lucian, "I will keep this one busy, allowing you to focus on the bigger threats." Burst merely scowled at that statement, and set his entire body ablaze.

"Do as you please, just try not to get in the way," Lucian said.

Smash took notice of the smokescreen coming from Inferna. I hope she knows what she's doing. He thought as he turned his attention back to Lucian. An idea suddenly came to mind. He took off his current gloves, letting them drop to the ground. In place of them, he fitted a pair of blue striped gloves. Alright, if I can knock him off of that..THING, It should be easier to approach him. He thought. He thrust his palm forward as a huge burst of water gushed out of his arm towards Lucian. He thrust his other palm repeating the attack, hoping to knock him down.

Lucian jumped high into the air, and hovered in midair. "Time to --" he was cut off by a beeping noise coming from his wrist. "Yes?"

"Do what I asked you to do. Now."

"...Alright lord V." Lucian then flew off into the distance. "I'm leaving this in your hands. Don't fail me!" he said to the soldier who came to assist him.

"As you command," the soldier replied. In one swift motion, he drew a gun from its holster and shot a laser high into the air before shouting, "Troops, on my position! These ones are not to be taken lightly!" Following the shot, several more soldiers came to join the battle, surrounding the heroes.

Smash looked around at all the soldiers surrounding them. "The situation is dangerous." He said to his allies. "If we want to get out of here alive, we'll need to work together."

"Right!" Burst replied, "Even if things get tough, I've got an ace up my sleeve just in case. I only hope he cooperates." At that moment, the head soldier pistol-whipped Burst to the ground while his guard was down. "Enough talk," he scowled, "Now is the time for battle. Troops, attack! Don't let them get the better of you!" By his command, the soldiers charged at the heroes, guns drawn and swords raised.

The smoke surrounding Inferna dissipates. Her fur has changed color to dark gray and her streaks are now white. Her normally yellow irises have changed to purple. She runs over to Burst. "Are you alright."

Burst climbed up to his feet and replied, "Yeah, just caught me off guard," he then faced the soldier and said, "I'm not gonna let you off easy for that one, buddy!" The soldier then leapt over him saying, "You are none of my concern, boy." He landed next Smash and continued, "You are far more important matter I must attend to." At first, Burst felt appauled by the soldier's gesture, but he soon forgot that and asked Inferna, "What happened to you?"

The very moment the soldier landed next to Smash, he backhand punched him in the face, without even looking to see who it was. He then thrust both of his hands forward, shooting another burst of water at the troops in front of them.

The soldier raised his arm to block the punch, and retaliated with a horizontal slash from his sword.

Feeling that he blocked it, Smash took one of his hands away from his frontal attack and used it to blast the soldier behind him with water.

The rush of water knocked the soldier backward slightly, throwing off his slash. He tried the same tactic again, this time with a backhanded, vertical slash.

This time, Smash whirled around to face him. Luck had it that he just managed to dodge the attack by chance. He quickly threw a hard punch towards his gut, aiming to hit him before he could put his guard up.

The punch collided with the soldier's armour, leaving a noticable dent, but left him virtually unscathed. With a chuckle, he replied by throwing a left hook to Smash's head.

Smash swung his arm to deflect the left hook, and then threw another punch towards his gut. This time he put much more strength behind it, as it would probably hurt him if he tried to guard it.

This time, the punch sent the soldier sprawling backwards. However, before he could deal another blow, Smash was shot at from behind by another soldier in the distance.

In response to Burst's question, Inferna says, "Like it? This is my Smoke Form. This is what I was planning that took so long to activate."

Smash was just about to deal another blow, before the energy bullet pierced his shoulder. Luckily it didn't immobilize his whole arm. He kept himself from crying out, and went on with the fight the best he could. He turned around and shot another burst of water towards whoever shot him.

The soldier was knocked down by the water, but Smash's distraction gave his initial opponent a chance to kick him in the back (Should I name him, to make things easier?). Meanwhile, Burst replied, "Sweet. That should help." It was then that he truly noticed all of the surrounding soldiers.

((If you want. I wasn't sure how long he was gonna stay alive, though.))

Smash fell down to his side, but then spun around in a 360 sweep kick to take him down with him, along with any other nearby soldiers.

As was intended, the soldier was brought down, but he attempted to elbow Smash in the side on his way down.

With his spinning around, the soldier missed him. Smash swung himself back up to his feet in a stylish fashion. He clenched both fists together and attempted to crush the soldier's chest and break his armor.

The soldier pushed himself backwards to avoid the strike, then got up on his hands and tried to kick Smash down with both legs.

Smash quickly brought both of his fists back up, attempting to both block and counter the attack at the same time.

Still balanced by his own hands, the soldier pushed off of Smash's hands with his legs and backflipped back up to his feet. He immediately followe up with a shot from his own gun.

Smash took a step back and stood up straight as he flipped back to his feet. The moment he saw the gun come into view, he threw himself to the side in order to keep away.

The soldier continued his assault, firing about two shots per second as he followed Smash with his gun.

Suddenly, from out of nowhere, Kleft reappeared on the scene, and jumped between the soldier and Smash. The energy bullets from the gun didn't appear to affect his tough, scaly skin as he ran towards the soldier and dealt him a powerful lariat, throwing him to the ground.

Not expecting the sneak attack, the soldier took its full force and fell backwards. Coming to his aid, three more approached and surrounded Smash and Kleft, holding the two of them at gunpoint.

Inferna unleashes three blasts of toxic smoke, each aimed at one of the soldiers.

The soldiers collapsed, and the one on the ground slowly rose back to his feet. He looked around, seeing that his other comrads were occupied, he dropped his weapons and raised his hands into the air. "Hmm, congradulations," he scoffed.

Kleft reached down, grabbed the soldier by the neck and lifted him to his face. With his free hand, he grabbed the soldier's head, and tore off his helmet, revealing the face of an otter. "Are you gonna come quietly?" he asked.

The soldier spit at him and said, "What would taking me in do? I am but one small part of Lord V's ultimate army. Whether or not you consider this a victory, you shall all fall to his might in the end."

"I figured as much." Kleft then tossed the soldier high into the air. As he fell to the ground, Kleft raised his fist, which the soldier landed on, piercing his armor and hitting him hard in the gut. By all means, he should be unconcious by now.

Smash watched as Kleft dealt him his due punishment. He looked around to make sure there were no other soldiers in the area.

Something on Kleft's wrist began to beep. "Looks like we've got a meeting to get to. Come on guys, I'd better introduce you."

After seeing that the enemies were now under control, Smash nodded at him. "That ended quicker than I thought." He commented. "Alright, I suppose we'd better go. But first I need to check on someone."

Dark Cold:(Flys away)!

"Hey!" Kleft calls out to Cold, "you're not gonna stick around?"

Dark Cold:(Stops)Hell no I'm find the way out(Flys away).

"Stop, you fool!" Smash yelled at him. "You CAN'T get out without Ciel's help! We all need to stick together! Now unless you want to make yourself a permanent residence, get your butt back down here right now!"

"We have to hurry. The other officials should be there by now," Kleft said. "Follow me."

Dark Cold:Well then buddy,I'm guess I'm on my own(flys).

Smash shook his head. "I swear..." He didn't finish. He left into the alleyway where Violet rested, seeing that she was just coming to.

"Where...?" She asked, groggily. She looked around with her eyes half open.

"Good, you're awake." Smash said, holding out a hand to her. "I'll explain everything along the way. Right now, we need to get out of here."

Violet blinked at him cluelessly, but then followed along.

"Well, he's on his own I guess," Kleft said as he pressed a button on his wrist. Suddenly, the ground in front of him fell away, revealing a narrow stairway heading into the ground. "Coming?" he asked the others.

"Well, we can't go much place else," Burst said, "I'm in."

Smash rejoined the group with Violet behind him. "Why is it so HOT here..?" She groaned, blocking the sunlight from her eyes with her hand.

Seeing the underground passageway, Smash said "We'll be out of the sunlight soon enough. Don't worry."

Kleft led the group down the stairway, which seemed to twist and turn in every direction. Smash explained the situation to Violet as they walked. After what seemed like hours, they finally reached -- a dead end. "Follow me," he said, and walked straight through the hard stone wall.

"Whoa, What?" Smash gasped. Violet's eyes widened with shock.

Inferna quickly recovers from the surprize and follows him through the wall.

Smash and Violet exchanged glances before heading in.

(The doorway leads to Levarious)

(In the Sky)

Dark Cold:I manage to get this much negative chaos power I should be able to do chaos control,but who know how much power I have left,I should turn around(flies back).

Levarious
Flame and Skate were on some sort of metallic surface, only it wasn't metal. They felt as if they were underwater, yet they could still breathe. If they looked up they would see that the sky was distorted as if looking through the surface of water. They appeared to be in some kind of futuristic city, only everything was underwater.

Tsunami, laying nearby, wakes up and jumps to her feet. She looks around, taking in the sight of this place, seemingly unimpressed.

A red cat floated upside down, slowly descending towards the metallic ground. He looked too confused to even speak.

A hissing noise is heard a little bit away. Tsunami turns and walks toward the sound.

Flame:Tsu don't go,it sounds like trouble.

Skate:Yeah(powers up).

Tsunami ignores Flame and Skate's warnings and continues toward the sound. She lifts a large chunk of rubble one-handed, as if it were made of paper, and tosses it aside. The white snake underneath the rubble slithers up her leg until he is draped over her shoulders. "Thank you, Aquella," he says.

The cat flipped rightside up and landed on his feet. "Would somebody please explain what's going on here?"

"I'm afraid I don't know myself," Orochimaru says. Tsunami remains silent.

"You guys aren't from this world aren't you?" said a voice.

Tsunami remains perfectly still, as if she haden't even heard the voice. Orochimaru turns to it, replying, "As a matter of fact, we're not."

"Wait, we're not?" The cat asked. "Hold up, Then where the heck ARE we?"

"Why are you standing? Don't you know you can swim?" A long, blue, sea-dragon like creature appeared from under a couple of rocks.

The cat took a step back, startled from his large appearance. He immediately realized that it was friendly. "Yeah, I kinda figured that out myself..." He said. "Tell me, Where is this place?"

"Follow me. I'll show you." The dragon then swam into the distance.

Tsunami swims after it with great speed. Orochimaru hangs on tight.

The cat went and swam after it as well.

They soon came to a city made entirely out of coral-like material. The 'buildings' were of all different shapes, sizes and colours, some stood on the sea floor while others hung from larger buildings. Framed windows and doors dotted their surfaces. Within the city creatures similar to the one leading Tsunami and the cat were swimming to and fro, all different colours and sizes.

"Welcome to Aquarion. My name is Levi," said the dragon. "You guys are from 'that' dimension, right? The one with planet Earth?"

"And I'm Gizmo." The cat returned the introduction.

Skate:Right.

"I may be able to send you guys back there," Levi said.

"Really?" Gizmo's eyes lit up. "That's great! How do we get back?"

"Have you guys heard of V?"

"No, not really." He shook his head.

"Follow me," Levi said, swimming into a window of a coral building.

Inside, it looked like a regular office building on earth, only it was swarming with fish and other sea serpents, who proceeded to stare at the strange visitors.

Gizmo followed the sea dragon, curiously looking around at their surroundings. The place was very strange to him, yet very fascinating at the same time.

Levi led them into a circular room made entirely out of sky blue material. In the center a transparent glass orb was suspended in the air. "I'm not sure if this will work, but I'll give it a shot." Levi then began typing on a seemingly invisible keyboard in front of the orb.

Gizmo came up behind him, looking over his shoulder. He watched him type and wondered just how everything worked.

An image appeared in the crystal orb. It showed several bars of different colours, but three had much higher readings than the others. "According to this, there's been high interdimensional activity between three dimensions. I'm guessing that's where your friends must be."

"Wait, My friends got caught up in this too?" Gizmo asked, looking shocked. "Exactly How many people got thrown around!?"

"I don't know. I can't find out exactly how many, but from the looks of this chart it seems that a large number of people were transported. There're only two people who can cause such a large dimensional rift: Ciel, and with her power, V."

Skate:V?

Flame:?

"V, his real name unknown, is a malevolent being bent on ruling every corner of the multi-verse. He is extremely dangerous due to the fact that he seems capable of doing, well, anything."

Gizmo's eyes widened. "N-No way..." He gasped.

Tsunami silently ponders this new information, not a flicker of emotion crossing her face.

Suddenly, there was a loud explosion somewhere outside the building. "What was that?" Levi said as he swam out the window to see what was happening.

Several of the coral buildings were on fire, although the appeared to be underwater, and floating in place was a fox, arms crossed with blonde hair with black streaks at the ends. "What are we supposed to be looking for again?" He asked, seemingly no one. "We're looking for those guys who got away from lord V!" he replied to himself. "Wait," he said, "I sense them somewhere nearby." He started floating towards the buliding they were in, energy building up in his palms.

Tsunami clenches her fists. To her, this fox looks like a challenge, and that means she may have found someome worthy of testing her newest powers on.

"Oh look at that! Another thing we can play with!" he said, grinning almost psychotically. His face then relaxed into a more bored expression. "We shouldn't underestimate this one. If she came out to fight, she must be pretty strong." The crazed expression returned. "Lets see what you got fool!"

"Mentally unstable, eh?" Tsunami mutters, her face still expressionless. Tsunami begins walking casually toward the fox, energy crackling around her.

"Mentally unstable? Is that what you think?" His hand began glowing purple energy, which then formed into a long pole. A sharp blade popped out at one of the ends. "You shouldn't make assumptions." He said, and swung his scythe, shhoting a crescent shaped blast of energy.

Tsunami vanishes and reappears instantly on top of a nearby building. "Gonna have to be faster than that," she taunts dryly.

"Like this!?" The fox was now just above Tsunami swinging his scythe down, the blade centimeters above her head.

Tsunami's sword is suddenly in her hand in a defensive position, blocking the scythe's blade. "Much better," she replies.

"Heh." He did a flip, and jumped off Tsunami's blade. He was now several feet in front of her. He turned the bladeless end of the scythe towards her, and it suddenly extended at high speed, straight towards Tsunami.

Tsunami sidesteps the advancing pole. She grabs it and sends a high-voltage electric current through it into the fox.

He takes the pain of the electrocution, and cries out. Suddenly, several long blades of energy extend from the ploe where Tsunami is holding onto it.

Tsunami winces and releases the pole. A cyan light is emitted from beneath her clenched fingers. When she opens them again, the cuts have closed.

"Well that's certainly interesting!" the fox said in his crazed voice. "Maybe I should cut you so bad you can't heal!" he said, appearing right in Tsunami's face at the last words and attempting to slash her with his glowing scythe.

The blade slices straight through her and she collapses to the ground as a puddle of water. Orochimaru, who was still on her shoulders when she took the hit, goes flying backward, an open wound across his long body.

"Well if she's gone, might as well kill her pet!" He shouted as he threw his scythe at Orochimaru, who would be sliced in half if he was hit.

The puddle Tsunami had become rears up and catches the pole of the scythe. The puddle reforms into Tsunami. Orochimaru opens his mouth wide. A hand reaches out and pulls itself out, followed by a white mobian bat. Orochimaru's serpentine body goes limp as his conciousness had been transferred into the bat.

Suddenly, a hand shoots out of the scythe handle, and grabs a firm hold of Tsunami's arm. "Hello there," said a fox, lokking exactly like the other one only with pure black hair, emerging from the scythe. He then sent his purple energy surging through Tsunami's body like electricity. "Don't over do it, Gem," said the other fox, whose hair was now completely blonde, "V may still want here alive."

Tsunami throws a lightning-laced punch at Gem's face, while Orochimaru attempts to bite the fox's arm.

He takes both hits, laughing maniacally, and retracts into the scythe, which then reappears in the other fox's hands. "It's over now. You've lost," he said.

"Don't count me out just yet," Tsunami warns him, "You haven't seen a fraction of my true power." Orochimaru flies at the fox in his bat body.

"What an idiot," the fox said, extending he hand towards Orochimaru. Suddenly, several purple spikes shot out from within his body, skewering him, but not killing him. "By the way, my names Eli, not that it matters." Gem soon stood by his side. He put his hand on Eli's shoulder, his body turned a bright purple, and he merged with him, and Eli's hair was now blonde with black streaks. "You're a goner."

A blue hedgehog with a cape and goggles on his head walked up to everyone. "What's all the commotion?" he asked.

(By the way just so everyone knows all the characters are submerged in something like water, only they can breathe and its easy to move around.Possibilities are Endless - Banzai123 02:36, May 22, 2011 (UTC))

"Deal with him," Eli said, just as Gem shot out towards the hedgehog with a blade of purple energy.

Gizmo watched from inside the building, not knowing what to do. "This all happened so suddenly, I don't have any weapons on me..." He said to himself. "What do I do..? Without any weapons against these guys, I'm as good as dead..."

Orochimaru opens his mouth wide again, unhinging it despite being a bat at the moment. As if shedding skin, another bat crawls out in perfect health. He smirks and attacks Eli again.

(That seems a bit unfair :

"Fine then. If you can't be killed I'll trap you like a rat." Spikes emerged from Orochimarus body and impaled him again, only this time they also formed a small orb, trapping the bat inside.

"As for you," he turned to Tsunami. "Who are you anyway?"

"I am Aquella Oceania," Tsunami replies, "But i prefer to be called Tsunami."

"Out of curiosity," he said, "are you able to regenerate like that snake-thing? I'm debating on how I should go about killing you."

"Just kill her the most painful way," Gem said while fusing with Eli.

Tsunami charges at them at blinding speeds, but Gem and Eli were nowhere to be seen.

Meanwhile, Levi swam up to Gizmo, and handed him a gun-like weapon. "Heard you complaining. Take this. It fires blasts of highly compressed energy bullets."

((Wait a minute. Megaman? Megaman isn't from their world...~Smash The Echidna~ http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100421224452/sonicfanon/images/0/04/Smash_life.png 23:32, May 22, 2011 (UTC) ))

(I was trying to give an example of how the gun worked. )

Gizmo took the gun into his hands. "More like worrying. Thanks, this will do nicely."

(Putting it in a comment like this would have worked better. Though I find it somewhat coincidental that I had made a sprite of Gizmo cosplaying as Megaman. Unless you saw that?

(I actually didn't see that lol. Coincidence? Possibilities are Endless - Banzai123 01:33, May 25, 2011 (UTC))

Gem/Eli were now standing on top of a large coral building, surveying the scene. Tsunami was nowhere to be found, and Gizmo and Levi were wide open for attacking. "Perfect," they said, and began building up energy in their scythe.

Gem/Eli feel a heel slam into the back of their head. Sensing the energy they were charging, Tsunami had reappeared behind them and kicked.

"Gwah!" they shouted as they fell, or floated, off the building. "Why didn't you sense her coming?" Eli's voice said, "didn't you...do your thing?" Gem's voice spoke next. "Oops. Sorry, I forgot." Gem/Eli flipped in mid air, and landed on another building. "Ready for me?" he asked Tsunami.

Tsunami answers by cracking her knuckles.

Skate:Well then.

Fkame:Hmph.

"Three on two? That isn't very fair...for you!" they said, and fired a flurry of knife-like bullets at the three.

Moving at blinding speeds, Tsunami lashes out with her arms, knocking each bullet off course with a tiny burst of water.

Gem/Eli rushes towards Tsunami at equal speed, scythe raised, aiming to cut her in half.

Tsunami's Hookblades appear in her hands. She catches the blade of the scythe on one blade and slices at Gem/Eli with the other.

Gem's torso suddenly sprouts out of Eli, and knocks the blade away, while Eli flipped over Tsunami, dislodging his scythe in the process.

Tsunami slams the hookblades together. They combine and change shape, becoming a huge Trident.

Gem/Eli land on top of a nearby building. "Let's finish this!" they shouted in unison,raising their scythe. A hand placed itself on the scythe, lowering it. The hand belonged to a shadowy figure that suddenly appeared next to Gem/Eli. "Marz?" they asked.

"What do you think you're doing? You're orders were to let us know when you found them, not to engage them in battle."

"Well we..."

"No matter. I'll take it from here." Marz then looked to Tsunami. "I'm your opponent now."

"Fine," Tsunami mutters, spinning her trident in her hand.

"For some odd reason, V is interested in you. Would you consider joining our ranks?"

"Sorry," Tsunami replies flatly, "But I've already got a power-hungry villain on my side."

"Hm, all right then. Then I can kill you now."

"Can you?" Tsunami taunts.

"I can sense your power. It's nowhere near mine. Now, It's not really my style to make the first move."

Without another word, Tsunami vanishes and instantly reappears above and behind Marz. She stabs downward with her Trident.

The trident stabs the roof of the building. Marz's foot is suddenly centimeters away from Tsunami's head, about to catch her in a powerful round house kick.

Tsunami transforms into water again at the last second. The kick connects, causing her liquid head to splash all over. She soon reforms a little ways away. "You are powerful indeed," she says, "You saw my Flash Step. So what? I know someone who can see it, copy it, and use it against me. And I've beaten him countless times."

"You're boasting is getting a little annoying.," Marz said with an irritated look on his face. "And you're comparing me to a copycat? My abilities are mine and mine alone, and a fraction of it is enough to defeat you."

Tsunami closes her eyes. "You haven't seen my true power. I have yet to change into any of my more powerful forms." she replies. She opens her eyes now. The whites of her eyes are now cyan while the pupils have become dark blue.

"Well hurry up and do that. I don't want to waste any more time here. Your boasts mean nothing if you can't live up to them."

A sphere of electricity appears in Tsunami's hand, lightning lancing off of it in all directions. She hurls the sphere at Marz with unbelievable strength. As soon as it leaves her hand, the sphere becomes incredibly unstable and explosive.

"That's all? And here I thought you were gonna bring out something interesting. Oh well." The sphere hurled closer and closer to Marz, until, it suddenly appeared behind him, and exploded far off in the distance.

Orange flame-pattern markings begin to spread from the back left side of Tsunami neck. Once her left side is covered in them, they markings stop moving and become black. Her power seems to have just steeply shot up.

"That's new," Marz said, "Do those marks do anything? Or are they merely for decoration?"

Gizmo watched the fight from within the building. "Those guys...They're after us?" He asked. "I've never seen them in my life. Why are they after us?"

Tsunami answers Marz, "This is the Curse Mark given to me by the white snake Orochimaru. It sends my physical abilities to unnatural levels." To prove her point, she vanishes and reappears high up in the air. She then reappears again, bringing her trident down on top of Marz, this time much faster than the first.

"Looking for me?" Marz was standing upside down above Tsunami, his feet hanging on to...nothing. "In case you haven't noticed, you can't touch me."

Tsunami begins emitting bolts of lightning from every part of her body. It would be nearly impossible for anyone in range to avoid being electricuted.

"What?" Marz said before vanishing, just as a bolt of lightning touched his arm. In an instant, marz was nowhere to be seen.

Tsunami stops emitting electricity and stands perfectly still. Her eyes, the whites and pupil still cyan and dark blue, close as she concentrates on her surroundings.

Suddenly, a small distortion of space appears in front of Tsunami's face, with a powrful enegry blast shooting out from it.

In an instant, Tsunami is high up in the air, her eyes still closed. Her mind is buzzing with thoughts, ideas, and strategies as she begins to piece together the mystery of Marz's abilities.

Marz emerges from the roof of a building, the material warping like a water splash. He was some distance away from his opponent, and eyed her carefully. His hand began to glow with red plasma-like energy. Then, he tossed it straight above him, into the sky like a rocket. "Ready for the real thing?" he asked.

Tsunami vanishes again, reappearing directly below Marz. She kicks upward, her foot infused with lightning. If her attack worked, her heel would slam into Marz's chin, knocking him high in the air. Tsunami would then reappear behind him, restrain him with surprizingly strong threads of water laced with lightning. The two would fall toward the ground below, headfirst and spinning at ferocious speeds like a large, lightning laced drill.

Unfortunately, the attack didn't work, as her heel entered a wormhole in space, and reappeared above Marz's head. When she looked closely, she could see from her akle to her foot above Marz's head, with the rest of her body below his chin.

She quickly pulls her leg back out of the wormhole and leaps away, putting plenty of distance between her and her opponent. More of her begin appearing on either side of her until Marz is surrounded by an army of Tsunamis.

Marz reaches out his hand into thin air, and from his wrist up vanished into thin air. His hand reappeared around Tsunami's neck.

But the hand goes right through her, as if she's not even there. The multitude of opponents all charge Marz from all directions. Each one throws a punch once they're close enough, but only one would make contact. The others would go right through him.

Should have seen that coming, he thought to himself as he sank into the ground at lightning speed, causing the Tsunami's to crash into one another. Marz is suddenly standing above Tsunami, standing on thin air. "This battle appears to be dragging on longer than expected. What do you say we end this?"

The Tsunamis collide, but all go right through each other. They turn to look up at him. "What's the matter?" one asks, "Afraid I'll figure out your weakness?" another taunts, "Or are you just afraid to get beat by a girl?" a third adds.

"Oh please, I have no weaknesses. It is simply that I have other matters to attend to, and you're wasting my time. Tell me something: Can you dodge rain?"

The Tsunamis all look offended by the question. "You're asking ME to dodge RAIN?!" one shoots back in annoyance, "How insulting!" another says, "Do you have any idea who I am?!" the third yells.

"Figure of speech, little girl. Remember that energy blast I shot into the sky?" As he spoke, the now gigantic energy ball appeared over Marz's head. "Let's see you handle this." The massive ball suddenly exploded into a shower of millions of red sparks, all of them darting straight towards Tsunami. The sheer radius of the attack makes it impossible to dodge for most people, as the shower was over a mile in length.

The Tsunami army seems mostly unaffected by the attack. Each spark that comes for them seems to go right through them, as if the entire army was nothing but an illusion.

"Hm. No matter. I'll just store till she decides to show herself." Each spark suddenly vanishes into their own distortion of space. "What's the matter? Got cold feet?"

The Tsunamis all hurl a sphere of lightning at him, but only one of them would hit.

As expected, the spheres vanished when the reached Marz, then reappered behind him. "Like I said before, you can't hit me."

The army of Tsunamis fades away. The real Tsunami is nowhere to be seen.

"Looks like she's hiding again." A beeping sound came from his wrist. "Yes my lord?" he answered.

"What is taking so long?"

"I'm in the middle of a fight sir,"

"Well stop it. You're needed somewhere else. The others can wait."

"....All right, sir."

Tsunami appears nearby.

Gizmo slit his eyes at Marz, watching his call on his com-link.

"Turns out I have to leave. And I was just about ready to fight for real. What a shame."

The black flame-pattern markings covering Tsunami's left side begin to glow orange, and recede back to the point on her neck where they originated.

"Till next time, Tsunami," he said, backing up into a distortion in space, then vanishing completely.

The ground beside Tsunami begins to rise slightly. Out of the distortion slithers a white snake, who then coils up Tsunami's leg and drapes himself over her shoulders. Orochimaru.

"They're gone..." Gizmo whispered. He looked down, thinking everything over. Soon, He turned to Levi with a serious expression. "We need to get to the other dimensions and find everyone." He said. "Can you help us?"

"I can try. I'll have to search for any recent -- holdon a sec." He took out some sort of PDA device. "Well, looks like you've got a message from Ciel." he handed the device to Gizmo.

Gizmo tilted his head to the side. "Ciel?" He asked, taking the device. "Isn't that one of the two only people capable of causing a large dimensional rift? How would she know me?" He looked at the device. "Or maybe she knew she accidentally sent someone here and was sending a message to them in general, that being us." He suggested as he began to read the message. "Hm, Lets see here..."

On the screen was an image of a green haired hedgehog girl in a desert-like area. "Who am I speaking to exactly?" she asked.

Gizmo's eyebrows shot up. "This is a live video chat type of message?" He asked, then looked at Levi. "I thought this was some sorta text message!" He then looked back at the screen. "My name's Gizmo The Cat. And you're Ciel, right?" He asked.

Skate:Take it easy Giz,you can't trust anybody.

Ciel looked at Skate. "Besides Mr. paranoid there, is there anyone else with you?"

"Shush, you." Gizmo said, narrowing his eyes at Skate. "She may be our only hope in getting out of here. And don't call me Giz!" He looked back at the screen. "Well, there's about two more. One just fended off like 3 people sent by this V guy, who were apparently coming to capture us."

"Capture you? That's odd. For now, just stick with Levi. He'll explain everything to you guys."

"I will?" Levi asked, a little confused.

"Sure you will," Ciel said before the transmission ended.

Gizmo blinked, and then turned to Lucian, waiting for his response.

"Sigh. I think it'd be best if you followed me. It's time I introduced you to the resistance."

Gizmo nodded. "Right." He then followed him to the area where the resistance were.

Tsunami follows silently with Orochimaru riding on her shoulders.

Levi led them into a deep trench. After swimming downwards for quite a while, he suddenly stopped. "5151 2167," he said, facing a large boulder. Suddenly, green streaks lit up the bouder, travelling around it like complex circuitry. Then, it vanished altogether, fading away into nothingness. "Right this way," he said to the others as he swam inside the newly formed cave.

Gizmo seemed to be impressed with the type of technology they were using. He kept following, anxious to know what else there was to see.

Tsunami continues following them. It is apparent that she is trying hard not to show her amazement.

They moved through a very long and dark tunnel for what seemed like hours. Then they saw light at the end of the tunnel. When they finally reached the light, they found that they were now moving through a transparent tube, encircled by gold rings at several intervals and floored with fine carpet. The light came from several lights that lined the top of the tube. "Welcome to the resistance HQ," Levi said, silently laughing at their amazement.

"Whoa! This place is pretty cool!" Gizmo exclaimed.

Another sea-dragon creature walked/swam up to them. "You're friends have arrived," he said to Tsunami and Gizmo.

Tsunami tries to reclaim her uncaring look. "Take us," she says.

"Yes, Please!" Gizmo chimed in. "I wanna make sure they're actually "My" friends or not."

"Well, let's go see then," Levi said as he continued along the passage. He led them to what looked like a large waiting room, with manny seats apholstered with red velvet-like material. As soon as they arrived, a humanoid lizard-like creature had just stepped through a doorway, which contained spiralling blue colours -- a portal. Following the strange creature, a few familiar faces came out of the portal.

Gizmo looked at the creature, somewhat unsettled by his gruff appearance. He looked behind him, noticing other people following him. They looked to be from his world. He immediately recognized the next couple of people to walk through the door. "..Smash!? Violet!?" He exclaimed in disbelief.

Hearing their names called, Smash and Violet stepped out from behind the others to see Gizmo staring at them in shock. "Gizmo! You got caught up in all of this, too?" Smash asked, looking surprised.

Tsunami and Inferna's eyes meet and the two immediately stop moving.

Burst walked through from behind Inferna, and stopped aswell. "Oh geeze," he whispered.

Orochimaru lifts his head and hisses, warning Burst and Inferna not to come any closer.

"Where are the others?" Levi asked Kleft. "I asked the representative from Blussora to come as well."

"Sirs!" Another sea dragon came up to them and addressed Levi. "Blussora's under attack by V. They're requesting assistance!"

Smash looked over at the sea dragon, both eyebrows raised high. He wanted to ask about the whole place, but there wasn't any time for that. "Well, I guess we can just skip the formalities. There are guys out there that need our help."

"They said their fighting their best at the capital city, but there are waves of soldiers coming from the East. From what they told us, more of your friends are currently preventing the advancing waves from reaching the city."

"Well then, Let's get in there and finish them off." Smash cracked his knuckles. "We could try to ambush them, maybe from the back or the sides. It'll be a great help and take a load off our friend's backs."

"We're sending off a batch of soldiers to fight in Blussora. I guess you guys could join them if you're up to it." Levi then turned to a sea dragon who was working at the computers. "Set the portal to Blussora, to the coordines they sent us."

Suddenly, the doorway changed colour; it went from sky blue to bright green. "You guys run ahead. Oour forces will be right behind you."

Violet, Smash and Gizmo all exchanged glances before nodding at eachother. "Let's do it." Gizmo said, grinning confidently. The three of them then ran through the portal.

Inferna follows them through the portal, Tsunami following calmly behind.

Burst eyed Orochimaru as he and Tsunami walked through, then followed as well.

Flame:Something fishy is going on.

"You're not going to go too?" Levi asked Flame.

Flame:I'll go,you coming?

Skate:(Passes them)
