The Great Fox lifted up from off the ground and in moments, reached light-speed and left the Earth's atmosphere in a flash. It took about 15 seconds to get out of the Earth's atmosphere; so much pressure was put on the seven adventuring Smashers. But when the Smashers got into space, they were relieved of much of it.
Fox: Alright then, enabling gravity and auto-pilot. Hey Pikachu, you know the coordinates to these planets?
Pikachu: I have the booklet that contains coordinates for each active planet involved in Arena-based activity.
Fox: Good, then let's have a look at that.
Pikachu handed Fox the booklet. Fox examined it carefully, then logged in the coordinates for the host planets of The Arena.
Fox: Now Auto-Pilot should know where we're going.
Falco: Still, it says here the closest planet is Jurai. At this rate, it would take us about two to three days to get there.
Link: And check this out. Planet Jurai has heavy security operating around it. We have to go through an advanced security system before we are allowed into Jurai territory. If any of our stuff is illegal on their planet, they could confiscate it.
Falcon: Uh oh... who knows if we're even getting there. We're having engine trouble.
Samus: You're kidding me!
Falcon: Does this look like I'm kidding! The engine broke down!
Mewtwo: Probably from not having been used since we arrived at Earth. That was quite a long time ago. This is bad. If we can't fix this engine, we'll be stranded in the emptiness of space.
Link: Damn, who knows how to fix an engine this complex?
Mewtwo: I'll see what I can do. But I'm gonna need some assistance.
Pikachu: As long as it's nothing too complex, I'll give you a hand.
Mewtwo: Alright then, let's go!
Mewtwo and Pikachu walked out of the bridge.
Samus: So, uh... what are we gonna do?
Link: Um... I have no idea.
Fox: Well, there's always music. I just picked up a new one. The music's cool, but I'm not diggin' the title of the CD.
Falco: What's the title.
Fox: Who the hell would want to call this "The Epic Battle soundtrack"?
Samus: God, the name's horrible! Send it to hell!
Falcon: Whoever came up with that title should be kicked in the nuts.
Mewtwo and Pikachu went to the engine room.
Pikachu: So, you know what the problem is?
Mewtwo: For the last time, no!
Pikachu: What about now?
Mewtwo: NO! But let's go find out.
The two pokémon checked out the generators, the thrusters, and anything else in regard to the engines. They came across something caught inside the generator discs.
Pikachu: So what do you suppose it is?
Mewtwo: It looks like a chunk of one of the generator discs. You see, these discs are spun at very high speeds, over 10,000 spins per second. That's how the generator gets the power to energize the entire ship and power the engines. This ship also has a back-up generator that doesn't spin that fast, but has the power to run electricity and keep life-support enabled.
Pikachu: But, how does this work?
Mewtwo: The generator discs each spin in opposite directions. The first spins clockwise, the second goes counter-clockwise, and the rest alternate between them. They're spun at high speeds and generate friction. That friction is converted into energy which powers the ship.
Pikachu: Then let's take this chipped piece out. It seems to be keeping these discs from rotating.
Pikachu reached for the chipped piece, as he began to pull it out, the discs began to rotate again. Somehow, as Pikachu pulled out the chipped piece, he got attached to one of the discs due to the friction being generated. Pikachu was being spun around at over 10,000 spins per second. Mewtwo shut off the generator, and the discs came to a stop.
Mewtwo: That was cool. Hey, are you alright?
Pikachu: @_@. I just... wanna shit... out my mouth...
Mewtwo: You mean "throw up"?
Pikachu: ...Whatever...
Pikachu blacked out. Mewtwo restarted the generators, and the ship began to move again. Then he grabbed Pikachu by the arm and dragged him back to the bridge. They entered to the song "Inhale" by Stone Sour.
Fox: ...and she said something about sucking cocks. I could only hope she meant mine.
Link: And this was just some chick you never even seen before?
Fox: Yeah. I could've scored. (sigh)
Mewtwo dropped the unconscious Pikachu.
Mewtwo: I heard everything... Anyways, we got the generator working again. Uh, what's this song called?
Fox: It's called "Inhale" by Stone Sour. It's off The Epic Battle soundtrack.
Mewtwo: The name of the soundtrack... I could take a dump and use that for toilet paper.
Falco: Fuck it. As long as it has good music, I don't care.
The Smashers continued to listen to their crappily-titled CD. Suddenly, there was a loud clang.
Mewtwo: Another chipped piece? And I just fixed the damn thing! Well, actually Pikachu did, but it was pretty cool watching him get stuck to a disc and spun around fast.
Link: He really got stuck to it! I wanted to see that. I should've ca...
Samus: Shhh! Listen.
The loud clang was followed by softer clangs. They seemed oddly rhythmic, though.
Falcon: So, what does it all mean?
Samus: The clangs follow a particular rhythm. Guys, I don't think that it's a ship problem?
Tension was rising. What was going on that nobody could put their finger on? Stay tuned and find out...
