New World
Bit looked around at the team's surroundings. They appeared to be in a meadow of some sort, and there was a little forest nearby. But the place had an almost ethereal feeling to it…as if the eight warriors had been sent into a parallel universe. And it seemed familiar to boot, but where had they all seen it before?
"That's it!" yelled Bit.
"What's it?" asked the others.
"We're inside the video game," he replied, "This looks just like the planet that Bub and Bob live on in Bust-a-Move. You know, the first board in Player vs. Computer Story Mode?"
A more thorough search of the area wasn't enough to verify their suspicions, but did seem to fortify them. The planet looked just like the kind of place two small, cute, and friendly dragons would hang out. But how had they gotten there?
Soon, they heard a voice call, "Stop, you're under arrest for leaving your posts." At once, a team of strange robotic guards began to chase them. The Blitz Team members ran towards the forest hoping to find a place to hide.

"Uhhhhhhhh…what happened? Last I remember I was playing a game, then a light filled the room." questioned Harry Champ. He rubbed the back of his aching head, and looked around. The area looked like some sort of fortress, one Harry'd never seen in his life. Suddenly, his eyes went wide, and he screamed, "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh…this isn't my base! Benjamin, Sebastian, where did you two get to?"
But neither of his robots came. Instead, a strange being entered the room. It looked like a silver full moon, with a ruff on the back of its head. Its eyes were covered with a dark pink eyeshadow, and the lips were wearing orange lipstick. "Hello my dear…I'm Madam Luna, the ruler of the universe," it said.
'Where have I heard that name before?" wondered Harry, 'Oh well…it'll come to me eventually.'
Luna continued, "I found you outside my castle, unconscious. Where are you from, my dear? I've never seen a life form quite like you before."
"Planet Zi," replied Harry, "Do you know how I can get home?"
"Well, I've never heard of it. Tell you what, if you help me destroy the rebels who are planning to take back the planets I control, I'll get you back to this Zi somehow. And…I'll even throw in your heart's desire," Luna proclaimed.
Harry thought for a moment. This didn't seem like quite an honorable cause. The lifeforms had the right to fight for their freedom. But to be stranded out here, so far from Leena, was a fate worse than death. Besides, if Luna could somehow get Leena away from Bit when he got home…
"Ok, you have yourself a deal," stated Harry.

Meanwhile, Bit and the others were still running from the guards. Ryu and Nina tried to fight with them, but the mindless androids just kept on coming. Just as they were about to give themselves up for caught, they heard a little voice calling, "This way, you can hide in here." It seemed to be coming from the bushes.
With no other options, Bit and Leena dived for the bushes. The other humans followed suit, while the Organoids distracted the robots. Once their masters had successfully hidden, Ryu and Nina broke off the attack, and flew off.
"Which way did they go?" asked a guard.
"Let's just forget we even saw them," replied the captain, "Besides, they've probably reached the resistance base by now." Then, the robots left.
While scouring the bushes, Leena suddenly fell in a little hole, and was knocked out. After a few minutes she came to, but didn't know where she was or what had happened. It was so dark that she could barely see her hands in front of her face, let alone her friends. "Bit…" she called in a worried voice as she walked down the tunnel.
At the same time, Bit had noticed his fiancée's disappearance. He tugged on Leon's shoulder, and inquired, "Have you seen Leena? She was right next to me, and now she's gone." His voice seemed to take on a worried tone.
"No," replied Leon, "But she's not the type to run off without telling us. Especially with all those robo-thugs running around out there. And if she was captured by the enemy, I'm sure we'd have heard the sound of her screaming at them, and robots falling to the ground."
Bit looked up at the sky, and wondered where Leena had gotten too. He took out a small photo from his jacket pocket. In it, there was himself with Leena on the day they'd beaten the aliens. She was lying in his arms, and they were sharing a passionate kiss. After it was taken, Leon had found himself beaten up for spying on the two lovers, even if he'd done it as a joke.
While Bit was reminiscing and worrying about Leena, she was crawling through the tunnel. Since Leena had been unconscious, she didn't know if she was at the entrance or someone had carried her to somewhere in the middle. She wasn't sure where she was going, she just wanted to find the exit. 'I just want to be with Bit again," Leena thought.
After wandering for a few more minutes, Leena saw light. But it wasn't the light of the surface, it came from several lamps. The place looked like someone's home, but what kind of person lived in the ground? Leena looked around, and found that there were no more entrances to a tunnel, or the outside.
But before Leena could leave, a strange creature entered the room. It looked like a small dragon that stood upright. The spikes on its back, neck, and tail were yellow, and its claws on the hands and feet as well as the big pointed tooth in the middle of its mouth was white. The belly was white, while the arms and legs were pink, the cheeks were yellow, and the rest of the body was green.

What you've just seen here was the gang's first close encounter. Don't worry, the others'll catch up soon. Like what I did with Harry? Plan on getting him in some serious trouble that benefits his stupidity soon.
