Another short chapter showing the fifth world.
Enjoy! ;)
Chapter 38: Trial of the Galaxies
Back at the used to be incomplete merged worlds' area, their halves were finally touching each other; at the left was the half of Sonic's World, and at the right was the half of Mario's World. The white streak was at the very middle, separating both halves.
With Bowser Jr. and Eggman, they finally finished building their Boomsday machine for the next enemy base. It was powered up by a Grand Star and the Purple Chaos Emerald.
"Hopefully with the last Chaos Emerald empowering the Grand Star, our machine might have enough strength to destroy those annoying pests." Eggman said.
"It better work this time!" Bowser Jr. assured.
Then, a monitor sound was heard.
"Oh great, papa's calling us again." Bowser Jr. grumbled as he reaches the monitor. He turns it on and Bowser showed up on the screen.
"I have been beaten again, Junior." Bowser reported. "So that leaves you and Eggman to take care of that stupid plumber and pesky rat with your new machine!"
"Leave it to us, dad! Those pesky threats won't stand a chance against our Boomsday machine! I'm sure of it!" Bowser Jr. replied.
"Good." Bowser said and turns off the monitor call.
"Come on; let's take our machine to my Boom Bunker!" Bowser Jr. called.
"Of course!" Eggman smirked evilly.
Back with the heroes
The two heroes arrived with the Grand Star and White Chaos Emerald at Starship Mario. The Grand Star spins surrounded by white light before shooting out to the sky and creating a portal.
"Great work there, pals! You did it! You found the fourth Grand Star!" Lubba exclaimed. "You fought that monster again?! You look a bit more banged up than last time. He's getting stronger, eh? We need to stop him before he gets any more powerful! All right then! Let's hit it! On the double, Captain!"
Mario approached the helm while his friends and Sonic and his friends held on the fence. Lubba gives the signal, the starship shakes and its engines start working. It then whistles and departs into the portal.
The fifth world's background was quite stunning: it showed a gigantic cluster of infinite galaxies!
"This place… It looks like it might be pretty well protected." Lubba spoke in a serious tone. "I betcha we're moving right in on the enemy's home base. Whaddya say we drop in unannounced? Maybe the baddies will have snacks for us when we show up! Har har! All right, it's all you, Captain!"
"Say, aren't there two more of us remaining?" Knuckles asked.
"You're right, Knuckles! The only ones remaining are Shadow and Silver!" Tails said.
"So they must be somewhere in one of those galaxies! In which ones, it's a mystery." Sonic concluded.
"Let's just hope we find them quickly; our worlds cannot handle much longer." Mario assured.
