"Welcome to the first flashback chapter of D.S's Domino effect, this chapter involves Vanilla, Pluton, Cream, and a few words from Emerald as he walked away from her house, I also want to say that flashback chapters can be shorter then most chapters." TME said as he looked to the screen with a serious face.
"This one has many comedic things happen before Cream gets home, it also show's Pluton on his way to Tails to complete the connection, finally I'll work on THE V2 to catch up to the first chapter of this story, so I apologize but this part is the real stopping point until THE V2 is caught up, if there are more please ignore if THE V2 is caught up." TME said as he looked to the script one more time before looking to the readers.
"The story starts with Vanilla waving to Emerald as he walked away." TME said as the story shifted to Vanilla's house.
Vanilla's house/between chapter 8 and 9
"Well I'm going to take a walk through the long way of the park to relax before talking to Tail's." Emerald said walking off as Vanilla waves goodbye. "Goodbye." Vanilla said waving to Emerald before she walked back in to make things more presentable for Cream's return as the scene shifted to Vanilla closing the door and sighing.
"Well what to do now, my body got younger thanks to Emerald, and I said that we keep it a secret for now, hmm." Vanilla said concerned as she tried to think of what to do.
"Hmm, who can I call that can help, Knuckles?, no he might blurt it out on accident, Rouge?, no she might ask for quite a bit of money and I used it on this new place, Tails?, he might be too young if he asks to many questions." Vanilla said as she sat down on the couch to think.
"Last I heard Amy followed Sonic into tails's house and haven't came out yet, hmm, oh I know!" Vanilla said with a small grin as she grabbed the Cellphone charging nearby and dialed a few numbers and waited as the normal ringing tone came from the phone for a minute before it was picked up.
"Hello?" ? said over the phone as Vanilla mentally sighed in relief before she spoke up. "Hello Pluton, is this a good time?" Vanilla said and waited for a second as Pluton took a moment to grab what he needed as he started to walk out.
"Now it is, I just got out of one of Robotnik's old base's with something interesting." Pluton said as he started to fly to station square with green jets as he kept up his call with Vanilla from the old eggbase.
"Can I help you?" Pluton said as he lowered his altitude to make the call easier for Vanilla. "Well it's hard to explain, the best I can say is that after I spent some time with Emerald last night while Cream was at Tails's so we could be alone something happened to me, and its not a bad thing." Vanilla said to Pluton as he saw Station far in the distance.
"Well why not call someone to help, I'm not normally the one to call for something like this." Pluton said with half closed camera eyes as he had a guess or two and spoke up sense Vanilla was silent.
"So you got Emerald's attention and got him in bed with you right?, that part I get." Pluton said with a smirk as Vanilla sweatdropped as he wondered how he got that sense she told no one.
"How did you know?" Vanilla said confused as she heard chuckling. "Hehehe!,You just told me." Pluton said chuckling as Vanilla sweatdropped. "Sometimes I wonder if your really a robot." Vanilla said facepalming at Plutons humor as he spoke up again.
"Well you told me just now." Pluton said as he approached station square park and saw Vanilla's house as he approached. "So can you help me when you get here?" Vanilla asked but heard the phone go to the dial tone when she heard knocking on the door which made her walk to it confused as she went to answer the door.
Opening the door she saw that Pluton was already there which shocked her greatly as he carried some odd part with him but thought nothing of it sense it looked like something for Tails to look at later as she spoke up confused. "Pluton!?, where you waiting at the door the entire time " Vanilla asked surprised as Pluton disagreed as he walked in after Vanilla let him in and put the part down next to the door.
"Negative, I arrived here just moments ago, I landed in the park nearby so I wouldn't disturb you." Pluton said as he looked Vanilla over with his scanners before he spoke up.
"Hmm, it seems that you were given a large dose of Chaos energy, it seems to be revitalizing your cell's to a younger state, hense the reason for the younger appearance." Pluton said as he scanned Vanilla to see if anything else happened.
"Well is there any way to make my appearance go back to normal." Vanilla asked worried for various reasons.
For a moment Pluton looked through his databanks to find nothing on this issue and shook his head. "Unfortunately, my memory files have no info, nor do Tails's databanks." Pluton said as Vanilla got worried further at what could happen if someone sees her like this.
"What will I do now?, I feel great even better then I have in years, but how will I explain this to everyone, more importantly to Cream, she's to young for the sex talk." Vanilla said worried more as Pluton thought for a moment before he spoke up.
"Hmm, I have a few ideas, wanna hear them?" Pluton asked while Vanilla nodded in agreement. "Well, why not just tell one person at a time to explain." Pluton said while Vanilla bonked him on the head a second later with a tick mark on her head.
"Emerald and I agreed not to tell others until later, I'm pretty sure your just messing with me now." Vanilla said ticked as she rubbed her fist to stop the stinging as Pluton while unaffected looked at her funny from the action.
"OK then, how about makeup, not just lipstick or something like that, more like how monsters are made in movies." Pluton said while Vanilla got ticked again as a dark aura emitted from her which shocked Pluton sense his scanners did not pick up anything.
"Monster am I?" Vanilla said with a frightening smile which made Pluton feel uneasy for the first time in his life as he raised his arms in a calming manner to calm Vanilla down before things got worse.
"I don't mean like a monster, actor's who play monsters or aliens have good makeup artists to make them seem real." Pluton said as Vanilla gave Pluton a pointed look.
"So you could make me look younger?, would that really work?" Vanilla asked as Pluton looked around the room. "Do you have a computer?" Pluton asked not noticing one in the house.
Vanilla though confused, looked at Pluton with an odd look before nodding. "In my room, Tails made it for various reasons, why do you need it?" Vanilla asked as Pluton walked to Vanilla's room with Vanilla in tow.
"This should make things easy then if Tails made it." Pluton said as he entered with a blushing Vanilla following him.
"Please wait Pluton!, besides calling you here I didn't get a chance to clean up." Vanilla said as he looked to the *messy* bed then to the computer which fits onto the entire desk with a pull out panel under the screen to show a keyboard, the brain was on the ground next to the desk.
"No worries, I just need the computer to update a few things." Pluton said as he walked to the computer and moved the chair away to get a better look.
"Hmm, it seems that all the items are here, now then..." Pluton said as he opened a panel on his arm and pulled out a USB cord before he put it in the computers USB slot as it booted up while Vanilla took a moment to change the sheets on her bed as the scene shifted to a few minutes later.
A few minutes later
A few minutes later Vanilla entered the room to see multiple window on the screen as Pluton types on the computer and saw that Pluton's USB cord was glowing a green color.
"What are you doing?" Vanilla said as Pluton looked over to her while still typing.
"Simply put, I'm getting data on how to be a master makeup artist and upload the data even as we speak to my databanks." Pluton said surprising Vanilla at the info.
"Really?, wouldn't that cause issues with your memory space? " Vanilla asked worried for Pluton sense Tails explained how a computer works somewhat to her, she was going to ask more later.
"Negative, My memory banks are in multiple places for extra space, simply put I can trade out certain skills for others in a instant, for example, I can trade out my combat skills for something different like how to mix alcohol exactly for Rouges bar sometimes, or for cooking info to make 5 star dishes, understand?" Pluton said as he closed all of the windows on the screen and unplugged himself from the computer before he shut it off and looked to Vanilla.
"Simply put, what I did was give myself the skills of a master makeup artist just now by compiling the data and sending my combat data to Tails's main computer to be stored, now I just need the right makeup items to give you your past look." Pluton said as he walked out of the room with Vanilla in tow again and walked out the front door while putting on a thinking face.
"Where are you heading?" Vanilla asked worried at Pluton's thinking face before he looked to her. "I need to get the items needed for this new skill, I'll be back in after 30 minutes or so." Pluton said before he flew off while Vanilla went inside and closed the door before she went to clean the place.
Vanilla took 10 minutes to clean the kitchen after last nights dinner, took 2 to load up the laundry, 3 to grab a snack to eat as she sat back down on the couch.
"15 to go huh?, might as well see whats on TV." Vanilla said as she turned the TV on to see that the show she wanted to see was on commercial that showed that there was a new type of bed that can adjust to the user automatically as the bed scans them if the right setting is used correctly, plus a demonstration that took 15 minutes for a full view as Vanilla thought about getting one.
"Hmm, I wonder If Cream will like that?" Vanilla said as she heard knocking on the front door after it was over and opened it to see Pluton with a black case as he walked in as Vanilla closed the front door.
"What's the case for?" Vanilla asked Pluton as he set the case on the kitchen counter before he looked to her.
"Its a makeup case, I have the know how, I just need the materials to use so I can give you your old appearance back." Pluton said as he opened the case to take out some tools.
"You sure you know what your doing?" Vanilla asked as Pluton got a chair in front of him.("To be honest, I have no Idea how makeup artists work, I'm just gonna say Pluton automatically knows how thanks to the skill switch system he has." TME said to the readers.)
"Of course, I just need to practice a bit so that my body can use those skills properly." Pluton said with a creepy grin as Vanilla shivered as his face.
"Now please sit down and lets start the makeover." Pluton said with a grin as he bowed a bit while pointing both arms at the chair.
A little nervous at Pluton's actions, Vanilla sat down to see Pluton walk in front of her with various items. "Now I need you to close your eyes for a few minutes while I add the makeup, remember the first few times are practice, I got makeup remover, so no worries about anything permanent." Pluton said with a grin as he held the makeup as the scene went black for a few seconds as the sound of a paintbrush moving along Vanilla's face while the scene shifted to a few minutes later.
a few minutes later
"Well Vanilla, take a look at the new you." Pluton said as he held up a mirror while Vanilla opened her eyes only to jump out shocked. "WHAT THE!?" Vanilla shouted as she saw that Pluton gave her one hell of a Zombie face that while Pluton smirked at Vanilla's reaction.
"I did say I need practice, right?" Pluton said while Vanilla's eye twitched in irritation before she bopped Plutons head again. "Please take this seriously!" Vanilla said bopping Pluton on the head only to hold her own hand in pain sense she just hit a metal head with her bare hands.
"I did say I needed practice, alright then just need to add some...remover?" Pluton said as he looked through the case to only get confused as he shuffled thing around.
"Don't tell me that there is no remover." Vanilla said irritated as Pluton looked at her but kept silent before he dug around the case with great vigor as Vanilla's irritation grew.
"Their is no remover is there?" Vanilla said with an eye twitching as Pluton grabbed a bottle and pulled it out to show that it was the remover and sighed in relief as he showed it to her.
"No worries, It seems the contents of the case shifted during flight." Pluton said as he started to use the remover to remove the Zombie makeup.
"Please no more practice, that Zombie face startled me greatly." Vanilla said as Pluton dabbed some more remover with a cotton swab for a few minutes to peal away the makeup then started to use the makeup kit to get Vanilla's old look which took a few more minutes.
"Well, don't expect a miracle, but I think I got it." Pluton said as he passed Vanilla a mirror who was impressed at Pluton's work as she looked herself over with a grin.
"I must say Pluton, you did a great job, its like I never got Emerald to come here." Vanilla said as she looked at her face from various angles for a minute more before handing the mirror back to Pluton as he packed the case up but left the remover on the counter.
"If you want, I can learn how to make a realistic mask of your old face." Pluton said as Vanilla looked to Pluton confused before she spoke up. "Why not make the mask instead of this?" Vanilla said to Pluton as he put away most of the items except for the remover.
"Simply put, it takes time, and you don't have time today sense Cream is coming later right?" Pluton said while Vanilla nodded. "Yeah, how long will it take to make a mask?" Vanilla said hoping she wouldn't have to wear so much makeup for long.
"Hmm, if I take my time, a few days, if I rush, a few hours, but recommend to wait as a rushed job might rip." Pluton said as he grabbed the case and started to walk out.
"Where are you going?" Vanilla asked as Pluton opened the door before he looked over his shoulder to reply. "To Tails's, I need give that part you saw to Tails, it's a stabilizer, hopefully it will help me in future fights." Pluton said as he grabbed the part as he walked out of the door with Vanilla in tow.
"Well now, I need to get going, If I see Cream I'll let her know that you want her home, good luck with the disguise, oh and I left the remover if you want to take the makeup off, its on the counter." Pluton said before rocketing off to Tails while Vanilla smirked as she walked back in to tidy the house further while the scene went to Pluton.
With Pluton flying over the park near tails's house
Pluton lowered his altitude as he got closer to see that Cream was walking out of the door of Tail's house with Cheese in tow and flew to her while slowing down. "Hay Cream, heading home?" Pluton said as he got Cream's attention as Cream smiled while she waved to the landing robot.
"Hi Pluton." Cream said smiling as Pluton landed. "Vanilla gave me a message to to give you, she hopes you get home soon, as for me, I'm heading in to Tails's place now." Pluton said walking up to Tails's place.
"Alright Pluton, thanks for the message." Cream said before she walked to Vanilla's house while Pluton walked into Tails's house and started to walk down to the basement after placing the makeup kit on the wall next to Tails's fridge to keep it out of the way and heard voices on the way down.
"Wait!, I wanna join you." Shunpei said surprising Emerald and Tails before Emerald spoke up. "Didn't you want to learn things here or rebuild the device you made?" Emerald asked as Shunpei rubbed the back of his head.
"Well yeah, but I want to learn more about Chaos Energy so I can help better, and going there might be a good thing." Shunpei said as he saw that Emerald grinned. "Well hop on." Emerald said moving over as Shunpei walked on the pad.
"Mind if I join?" Pluton said as he walked down the stair as he got the groups attention as they turned to see Pluton walk in as the scene shifted to Vanilla's as Cream and Cheese walked into the house.
The rabbit residence
"Hello Cream, Cheese, welcome home." Vanilla said hoping the makeup worked as Cream smiled before she walked in. "I'm fine mama." Cream said as she walked to the kitchen. "Chao!" Cheese said as it followed Cream while Vanilla sighed in relief.
"Well it seems that Pluton's makeup worked." Vanilla thought as she hoped the makeup would work for a few days. "Hay, mama?" Cream asked as she held the remover bottle which shocked Vanilla as she walked over to grab it from Creams hand.
"Can I have that bottle back please?" Vanilla asked Cream as she held her hand out. "Sure mama." Cream said as she handed Vanilla the bottle while Vanilla took a minute to put it up while a small eggbot spied on Pluton and Vanilla's makeup session as it flew away.
with Eggman as he looked over Steel's data again
"Hmm, so that's how it works." Eggman said as he noticed one of the spybots fly in to report. "Reporting video log of Vanilla residence." The spybot said as it landed on the computer console desk.
Eggman took the flashdrive containing the memory of what happened as it popped out and plugged it into his computer to see that Emerald went into Vanilla's house for awhile.
Then a surge of Chaos energy was picked up on the bots scanners before it faded, then the images fast forward to see Emerald leaving Vanilla's with Vanilla waving goodbye, the thing that shocked Eggman though was that Vanilla looked younger, around her 20's, Vanilla then walked back into the house as the images flashed forward to see Pluton fly to the house with some familiar item and saw that Vanilla let him in.
Eggman saw that after the images flashed forward again to see Pluton flying away without the item to who knows where as the images flash forward to see Pluton land back on the stairs with a case that made Eggman zoom onto to see that it was a professional makeup kit and saw that Vanilla let Pluton in again.
After 20-30 minutes he saw Pluton walk out with Vanilla in tow to see that Vanilla looked like her old self and figured out that Vanilla and Pluton used the makeup to get her old look back and smirked as Pluton flew off, the rest showed Cream entering the rabbit residence and the video cut off as Eggman grinned at usable info for future plans.
"This is interesting info, I hold onto this for later." Eggman said intrigued as he set up a second pair of robot bodies for Steel and Metal to use in case of emergencies as they upgraded along the other two versions that would be used soon as he started to chuckle.
"Hehehe soon, very soon." Eggman said with a grin as he went back over the data again while the scene faded to black.
"Well readers, the first flashback chapter of Domino effect, I rewrote the previous chapter to say that this was the place holder until THE catches up, next time will be another lemon between Sonic, Amy, and Blaze, if this is any indication, the story will be a pattern of lemony goodness mostly with flashback chapters in between." TME explained as he looked to the readers.
"I apologize if I caused confusion and I will work on THE V2 now, this it TME signing out." TME said as the scene faded to black.
