Meanwhile, back in Axle City, Aleena hopped over the roofs and watched GUN surround the city. The trucks were all terrified as they were forced to follow the GUN vehicles.
"I need to free them all," she hissed as she turned to the GUN vehicles near the Monster Dome, where the ebony truck was kept and chained. "But first… I need to free Mauglie to protect them all,"
She headed down towards the evil army, much to everyone's shock. Towers turned to her with a smirk.
"Grand Queen Aleena," he pointed his gun at her. "I see that you've followed your grandsons to this monstrous world."
"I was already always here for years now, Towers, so I think you miscalculated your words," Aleena chuckled and took out her medallion.
The medallion glowed brightly, changing it's form into a magical flute. She blew into the flute, playing a sweet, magical tune into the air.
The magic erupted into the wind and blew towards the chains on Mauglie. The ebony truck's eyes widened in amazement as the chains hovered and broke in an instant.
"YES!"
Maugie beamed, his own Chaos Chains glowing green as the GUN soldiers pointed at him in horror. Aleena went by his side, flute in her tires as she grinned.
"CHAOS CHAINS!"
"TORNADO!"
With their magic combined, a forcefield of chains and magic blasted into the center of the city, expanding all throughout. Every GUN agent and vehicle were pushed out if the city as a forcefield surrounded the place, keeping the citizens safe and the dangerous people out.
"That should keep GUN busy until Crushy comes back," Aleena sighed in relief.
"Where IS Shady?" Mauglie asked.
"With the rest of his friends on a quest for the rest of the Chaos Emeralds," Aleena replied. "but don't worry. They'll be back soon,"

"WOAH!"
The group cried out as they were zoomed through a swirling pink portal. They soon fell onto the ground with a thud.
"Argh…" Stripes hissed and forced himself up. "That was a painful ride…"
"But one that is worth it!" Roarian cried as he got up on his tires. "Friends, I welcome you… to Mobius!"
They all got up and looked around with wonder and amazement. The forest they landed in Mobius looked almost like Axle City's forest, but it was also different, with the trees not being as big as theirs and the animals having limbs instead of tires.
Crusher glanced around and fell to his tires as the tears rolled down his cheeks. Blaze turned to him in shock as he drove to his side.
"Crusher?! What's wrong?!"
"N-Nothing, I…" Crusher hissed as Pickle held him. "It's just… I… I can't believe it… I… I'm back in Mobius… I… I'm home…"
"Come, I am sure King Tristan of Mobius will help with our situation," Roarian told them.
"Good idea, Roarian," AJ agreed. "Maybe he can help us find the other Chaos Emeralds,"
Crusher nodded and got up. He then looked around and stared at the group with a frown.
"Uh… is it a good idea to have you guys go like… this?"
"Like what?" Starla questioned. "What's wrong?"
"Well… you guys can't EXACTLY just walk around in your truck forms," Crusher shrugged. "We've seen a lot of weird things here in Mobius, but talking monster machines just aren't one of them,"
"I can vouch for them," Roarian offered.
"I see Crusher's point, though, we're too big to fit anywhere," Blaze realized.
"What do we do about that?" Watts asked.
"Crusher?" Pickle turned to dark blue truck, who held out his Chaos Emerald.
"I… perhaps I can…"
Crusher concentrated his Chaos Energy into the emerald and spread it towards the group. Roarian flew out of the way as the group was hit by the energy. AJ and Gabby also moved aside as the energy made the group glow.
When the glow ceased, in the trucks' place stood Mobians of different kinds; Stripes was a tiger Mobian, Starla was a rabbit Mobian, Watts was a lizard Mobian, Darington was a wolf Mobian, Zeg was a crocodile Mobian, Phoenix was a fox Mobian, and Flame was a dog Mobian, leaving Sparkle and Blaze as a hybrid of both species. Pickle, on the other hand, was a turtle-cat hybrid Mobian, much to his delight.
"Yay! I'm green! And I'm a cat! With a protective shell!" Pickle squealed as he stared down at himself. "I look SO cute!"
"Woah…" Darington gasped. "We're all animal beings!"
"Mobians," Crusher corrected.
"You guys look great!" AJ clapped.
"Just… a little smaller," Gabby observed as she picked up Watts. "A lot smaller,"
"That's the thing about being Mobian," Crusher chuckled before raising his emerald. "Now… it's my turn,"
He whispered the words under his breath before his form shifted and shrunk with a bright glow. When the glow ceased, in his place stood a dark blue hedgehog Mobian with a icy blue stripes down his quills and down his arms and legs. He wore hover shoes and gloves while golden rings sat in his wrists and ankles.
"Aww! I forgot how CUTE your Mobian form is!" Pickle let out a squeal.
"Wow…" Crusher glanced down at himself in surprise. "I… I haven't seen my form in years… it… it feels… strange…"
"Well, I think you look great," Blaze smiled and headed over.
"I… thanks…" Crusher smiled at their compliments, with a light blush. "C-Come on. Let's head to the palace. This place… it's the forest near the palace in the Northern part of Mobius, just near Mobotropolis and Mobodoon,"
"And I know the fastest path there," Roarian released his magic to help the group fly.
"Thanks, but no thanks," Crusher grinned and lowered himself to the ground. "Race you all there!"
With that, he dashed off, with the others flying after him.
