A lot of the characters start to group up. We are not far away from the eventful team up!

Not a lot to add, just enjoy and please review!


It was an ordinary relaxing day in the glade of dreams. No enemies attacking, no one being kidnapped and trapped, and no-one running around nude from top to bottom.

During this quite day, a group of friends consisting of a red-headed girl, a large blue toad and a creature with no limbs and a big nose, was hanging around the forest near their homes. "It's nice to take a little break from all the activity we had lately." The toad said to his friends.

"Yeah… We were never that busy before." The girl added.

"So, I guess it's a sign we need to use the given time to relax our bodies and have fun." The limbless one concluded when he suddenly felt an unusual silence surrounding him. "Everything okay, guys?" He turned around to face them but he found out they weren't there anymore. "Globox? Barbara?" He called their names, but there was no answer.

He started looking for them anywhere he could, but he found no sign for his friends. Just as he stopped to catch his breath and think what could have caused them to disappear like that, a sight of a red ship caught his eye. The ship landed in front of him and out of it came out 2 familiar figures of an orange alien and a small grey robot.

"Ratchet? Clank?" The creature asked, as if not believing his eyes. Shortly after, another pair, consisting of what resembled the creature's female friend only with long ears and a small orange creature with a pair of jeans, came out of the ship. "Jak? Daxter? Wait, You 4 know each other?!" He asked in shock.

"Since when did you know them?" Ratchet asked the local.

"Since when did you know Rayman, really?" Jak asked Ratchet while gesturing to the limbless guy.

"For a month, pretty much." Clank answered. "What about you?"

"A few weeks." Jak answered.

Rayman shook his head on the scene going on in front of him. "So, you 4 knew each other before me?" He asked.

"Yes." Ratchet replied.

"Can we stop asking this stupid question about how and how long we know each other, and get to the point?!" Daxter cut the conversation with his screaming. "It seems I'm the only one who actually wants to save our friends." He signed.

"Did your friends just disappear without any explanation?" Rayman asked in response to what Daxter said. All 4 of them turned to face him and nodded. "The same happened not long ago to Globox and Barbara as well… This is really wired."

The 5 were silent for a few minutes before Jak asked. "What are we doing now?"

Rayman managed to think of something. "There are 2 friends of mine from other universes that could probably help us. We need to get to the heart of the world and teleport from there." He explained.

"The heart of the world?" Clank asked.

"It's where you and Ratchet woke up when you first came here. Follow me, it's not far away." Rayman explained before his eyes drifted to the ship. "Better bring the ship as well, we might need it."

Ratchet, Clank, Jak and Daxter entered the ship and started it, while Rayman sat on top of it and guided them in the right way.


Back in Sonic's universe, Tails was just finishing the final few touches required for his universe jumper to work. He already sent Sonic to bring Knuckles to their house so that they could all go and help Merida in the battle against the Vikings.

Just as Tails was done adjusting everything, Sonic came bursting through the door. "Tails, we have a problem, a very big problem!" The way Sonic said that made Tails look up at him from his work. "Knuckles wasn't on Angel Island. And if that's not wired enough, the entire city is completely empty from every soul. It's like everybody just vanished!" Sonic threw his arms in the air as Tails looked at him with horror on his face.

"What did you do with the Master Emerald?" Tails asked.

"I brought it here, just to be safe." Sonic pointed to the large emerald he just brought inside the house. As soon as he did that, his Miles Electric started ringing. Sonic answered the call and on the small screen appeared a turtle with an orange bandana on his face.

"Sonic! Dude! You are not going to believe this!" The turtle was clearly horrified. "We were all chilling in the lair when suddenly, EVERYONE VANISHED!" He screamed. "Leo, Donnie, Raph, April, Casey, Even Splinter was gone! I went up to the streets and there was no one there as well! It's like the ground swallowed them as if they were pizzas!"

Sonic and Tails looked at each other with shocked looks. This is the exact same thing that happened now in Central City, meaning this was apparently going around in the entire world. "The same thing just happened here, Mikey." Sonic replied to the turtle. "I and Tails are checking this out. We will contact you if we have anything."

"Okay. Just… Hurry up." Michelangelo said before dropping the call.

Before either Sonic or Tails could have said anything to each other, the Miles electric rang again. This time, it was Merida who appeared on the screen. "Hey, Merida. We were about to come over; it's just that… Knuckles sort of disappeared, as well as everyone else in this world, apparently." The hedgehog explained.

Merida looked shocked at those words. "That's what ah called ye aboot! The same thyng happined here! Just as we started the war." She said which caused Sonic to be more suspicious about the entire thing. "All af oar army disappeared, and sa did mum and ma brathers, and everyane in the village as well!"

"We will be there soon, Merida." Sonic told her. "We need to check something out first. If this happened to you as well, we are dealing with more than just Vikings. We will keep you posted." Merida nodded with as much confident as she could muster and dropped the call.

Sonic turned to Tails. "You get Mikey here in the Tornado, buddy. I will go ahead and pick up one of our other universe friends." He explained his plan.

"Do you mean Rayman or Sly?" Tails asked.

"Whoever of them I find first." Sonic replied.

Tails quickly activated the universe jumper and entered the coordinates for the universe Sonic needed to go to.
