Back in her castle throne room, Emma sat on her throne, observing her pets wreaking havoc on the big screen in front of her.
"All is going according to plan," She declared to herself. The screen reveals Dora and Boots were stuck on a wired web and a giant metallic spider looking heartless. "...Despite the resistance my prey is acting, they can never escape from destiny..."
She swiped the screen causing it to slide to the left revealing a new screen. The screen reveals the Greaser Dogs cornered in an alleyway, cowering in fear. A silhouette of a monstrous version of CatDog towers over them. She swipes the screen again revealing Peter Griffin being chased down the neighborhood by the heartless version of the giant chicken, he fought countless times.
"...Unfortunately…" Emma swiped it again. A screen showing the final moments of Chouka launched by dark red flames. "...Blaze somehow defeated Chouka...I shouldn't underestimate him...No matter...Soon the army will be completed," Emma proudly stated. "Then, the ANIME Dimension will pay for everything they've do-"
The NOVAH Queen suddenly felt a stream of pain in her head, causing her to clutch her head wincing. "N-no...Not again…!"
First-person view of herself in a dark locker room with only one lightbulb illuminating the area.
...
...
...
...
...
She turned to her right and screamed in horror to find a muscular boy with red hair being tied on a post.
...
...
...
...
...
His head lowered and he was unconscious.
...
...
...
...
...
...
The moment she could speak, she felt a sudden pain in the back of her head, causing her to blackout instantly.
"...!" Emma felt the pain disappearing and found herself on her knees. She slowly stood up, looking a bit annoyed. "Tsk, I'm sick of these visions I keep receiving...The sooner the plan is in motion the less pain I will feel."
Chapter 6: Invasion of the TOON Dimension
The apartment was silent for the Hames family. After Ericha, Blaze, and the NOVAH serpent in the schoolyard, Agent Giraffe attempted to arrest the four cartoons character and send them off to a scientist lab. However, after hearing what happened to her daughter, Sheila demanded to keep them in their apartment until they could figure out a way to bring her back. Agent Giraffe was outside the building talking on his phone while the rest were inside Ericha's room.
"He was trying to do what?" Sheila whispered loudly, yet her voice sound angered.
"He was bargaining with the scaly devil and threatened Ericha to hand him over," Irma answered.
"That's totally unfair!" Tristan remarked annoyed. "He treats you guys like criminals and yet he talks leisurely to a giant monster?!"
"I think that guy has some kind of grudge against cartoon characters like us," Bugs suggested.
"I wonder why though?" Jesselyn pondered.
"My only concern is my daughter's safety…" Sheila replied looking worried.
"Don't worry honey," Geoff reassured her. "Ericha's a smart girl. She's good at being independent. I know Blaze will do anything to keep our daughter safe and sound."
"I know...but still," Sheila said sadly.
"Alright, troops listen up~!" Bugs announced as he rolled in a big chalkboard in front of everyone while wearing a green army uniform. "The knowledge we have so far is that Chouka tried to bribe Agent Giraffe into handing over Blaze promising that he'll not attack earth! Ericha probably knew the cold-blooded serpent intentions and refused despite the shortstuff's threats. Causing her to run right into the portal along with scaley doc."
Jesselyn leaned in and whispered in Ashely's ears."Where did he get the chalkboard?"
"Better questioned. How did he get out of those handcuffs?" Ashely asked with a puzzled expression.
"What we need is to find a way to trigger the portal," Bugs suggested. "It might lead us to them or at least one of them."
"What do you mean by that?" Sheila asked confused.
"Well...we don't know if these portals would bring us back to the same world we've come from," Bugs explained. "Shaggy and I went through three worlds that were deserted before we made it to Irma's world."
"Yeah like the portals lead to different places," Shaggy added. "Who knows where they are…"
"Let's just hope those two are okay," Sheila said frowning a bit. "In the meantime, we need to do something about Agent Giraffe."
"What can we do? He's an FBI agent after all," Tristian said looking frightened. "He might take out some special dangerous weapon or erase our memories with a flashy device."
"I think I remember Will Smith using that on me once," Bugs thought out loud.
"I don't know what's going on in that B $&*#! mind, but what I do know is that B $&*#! is responsible for threatening my daughter forcing her to go in that portal!" Sheila growled. Geoff, Ashely, and the cartoon's eyes widened in shock by her anger.
Tristian puzzledly turned to Jesselyn. "Jesselyn, what does B $&*#! mean?"
"...When you're older," She responds patting his head.
"Still we need to figure out a way to save you guys," Tristian proposed. "I don't want Irma to be experimented by scientists!"
"Aw, thank little guy," Irma smirked while messing his head.
"Yeah, feeling the love here," Garfield sarcastically replied.
"Well, I'm going to make a sandwich," Geoff stood up from the bed and walked out of the room.
"Would you grab me an apple on to dad?" Tristian requested.
"Oh and like, grab me one too please," Shaggy also requested.
"Oh, and lasagna while you're at it," Garfield added.
"...We don't have lasagna though," Sheila replied.
The moment he swung the door open, Geoff was met by a large-built man, towering in front of his daughter's room. He had red hair and was wearing an FBI uniform.
The intimidating look the man was showing caused Geoff to close the door. He then went back to his spot on the bed while the others were in complete silence.
"...Did you guys knew a giant ape was guarding the door?" He inquired.
"An ape?" Tristian shot up. "Cool, I didn't know FBI agents have apes!"
"No not a real ape," Geoff acknowledged. "...At least I hope he's not."
Ericha slowly woke up. Her mind was still hazy, but she was able to get a vision of the yellow ceiling.
'...Where am I?' She thought to herself. She slowly sat up while rubbing her head. '...The last thing I remember…'
"Good, you're finally awake,"
Upon hearing the voice, Ericha slowly turned and was shocked to find a small creamed colored fur feline creature staring at her. Beside him was a certain yellow mouse, and behind the two was the odd blue creature that spooked her. "We were worried that this Buffon here might've scared you to death."
"Woobuffet," The big creature responded.
Ericha rubbed her eyes, she couldn't comprehend what she was witnessing right in front of her. She flinched as the small cat got her attention. "So are you gonna explain who you are?"
"A talking Meowth...a Pikachu...and a Wobuffet," Ericha mumbled to herself while rubbing her eyes again. "...I'm not dreaming am I?"
"I know, I know. It's shocking to see a talking Pokemon," Meowth boasted. Pikachu responded by just rolling his eyes.
"No, not that," Ericha denied. "I'm talking about how I ended up here? The last thing I remember was…" Her eyes widened in realization as the memories of the incident all coming back to her.
Panicking, the girl quickly got on her feet. She glanced eagerly at the three Pokemon. "Hey, have any of you seen a Houndour near me when you found me?"
"Nope… you were the only one," Meowth answered looking puzzled. "And I never heard of a Houndour...Have you two?"
"Wobba," Wobbuffet complies by shaking his head.
"Pika," Pikachu shook as well.
'What? Not even they recognized a Houndour?' Ericha thought with a mixture of shock and disappointment. 'That means...Houndooms and Houndour really are extinct.'
Suddenly another question popped into her head. She glanced at Meowth and Wobbuffet. "Hold on, aren't you two part of Team Rocket?"
"So you've heard of us?" Meowth boasted a bit with a smirk. "That's just what we wanted, Team Rocket's name to be down in history!"
"How couldn't I forget? You guys are famous for blasting off almost every episode," Ericha bluntly stated, which caused Meowth and Wobuffet to face fault. Although she rarely watches Pokemon, she heard from Tristian and Jesselyne talking about it many times.
"A-Anyway," Meowth coughed regaining his composure. "We were just about to swipe the twerp's Pikachu when suddenly those odd Pokeballs were falling from the sky. The minute they touch Jessie, James and the twerp's friends vanished. To make matters worse those Pokeballs transforming everything it touches into monsters.
'Heartless?" Ericha thought in her head in shock. 'They're taking over this world too?'
"Anyway, we can't idle around here for too long," Meowth mumbled. "We've gotta jet before it comes ba-!"
They were all startled when the door burst out of the hinges launching it across the room. Trudging inside the building was a giant trash bag heartless with long skinny arms which it uses to move around. There was a small hole in the front revealing yellow beady eyes glaring at them.
"It found us again!?" Meowth shrieked in fear. He and Wobuffet wasted no time running away from the beasts.
"PIKA PIKA!" Pikachu shouted gesturing her to follow them. Ericha quickly got up and rushed after the three Pokemon while the heartless used it's slimy limbs to lift its body and stomp towards them. The four turned to a corner down the hall and inside a room. Once they were all in they closed the door and sat at a corner quietly.
"What was that…?" Ericha questioned while trying to control her breathing.
"That trash bag has been following us since this whole mess started," Meowth whispered, looking nervous. "Seriously, what the heck is going on here?!"
Ericha's eyes gazed into space as the Pokemon were talking. The memories of the Grade 6 Incident came back to haunt her. Mizella, Blaze's older evil sister got into a tantrum after Curtis's little prank resulting in summoning a massive octopus heartless to attack.
"Fury Swipes,"
"OW~!" Ericha screeched silently while clutching her face where she felt claw marks on it. She glared at her culprit. "What the hell?!"
"We were trying to get your attention twerp," Meowth whispered angrily.
"Couldn't you, I don't know, poke my shoulder, or rub against me like a normal cat?" Ericha questioned angrily.
"Anyway, Pikachu has a plan to get us out of here," Meowth explained ignoring her. "While I distract the monster by tapping the door, Pikachu going to blast it the moment it burst open."
While the two small Pokemon went to their position, Ericha glance at the blue Pokemon. "...Is his plan really going to work?"
"Wobuffet!" Wobbufett replied with a salute.
"...Why am I talking to a Pokemon, like I can understand it?" Ericha facepalmed gently.
She decided to watch as Meowth was near the door while Pikachu was a few meters back. While Ericha and Wobbuffet hide behind the table.
"HEY, WE'RE HERE!" Meowth shouted scratching the door. "COME AND GET ME YOU STUPID PILE OF TRASH!"
After scratching a few more times, Meowth stopped after hearing a slight sound on the other side.
"...What was that?" Meowth asked. He put his head upon the door wondering if he was going to hear it again…
…
…
...
Suddenly a pair of slimy arms shot out of the door and quickly bound the scratching Pokemon. Ericha almost jumped out of her hiding place in fear at the Heartless garbage bag broke through the whole door out of the hinges.
The monster emerged into the room, and Ericha noticed that the door was slowly absorbing into its body, and Meowth was almost closed to it.
"PIKKKACHUUUUU!" Pikachu cried while firing a stream of yellow bolts out of his body. Once the attack made contact, the trash monster screeched in pain as it was being electrocuted. Since Meowth was bounded by the heartless electricity was also shocking him as well. Ericha had to cover her eyes from how powerful Pikachu's attack was.
Once it died down, the heartless body was smoking to a crisp. It's arms that latched onto Meowth disintegrated, causing the cat Pokemon to fall flat on his face.
"Is...he okay?" Ericha asked walking towards Pikachu while staring at Meowth.
"Pika Pikachu," Pikachu answered smiling.
"...Yeah, I'm used to this," Meowth answered dizzily as he tried to stand up.
'I guess it true that cartoons can survive anything humans can't,' Ericha thought. Before any of them could answer, a loud boom coming from outside startled the group.
"We need to keep moving!" Meowth exclaimed. The four of them ran across the hallway, and back to the lobby area. Ericha noticed the hole on the door where the garbage heartless enter from and decided to peak her head outside.
She found herself in a city-like area, but there were no people nor Pokemon around. There were craters across the road, parts of the buildings were scattered across the ground, there was even a small water spout gushing out water from the ground.
Speechless, Ericha was about to walk outside but was quickly dragged to the side of the Pokemon Center by Wobbuffet with Pikachu and Meowth falling behind.
Ericha was about to question them, but quickly covered her mouth when she spotted a massive bipedal armadillo heartless trudging across the street. It had golden plates of armor and long crystal claws that punctured the street concrete. The heartless were so close to them that the four held their breath quietly hoping that it hadn't noticed them.
The teenage girl restrains herself from gagging when the heartless nose emits a stream of smoke inches towards her face.
She felt herself being pulled away by Wobbuffet emitting a loud squeak. The four ran down the alleyway towards an open area up ahead.
Meowth who's ahead of the group halted, causing the others to follow. Once the close was clear Meowth gave a signal and continue to chase down the street. While running Ericha looked up witnessing the sky was still the same color when she first enters this world.
'W-What's going on here…?' Ericha thought a bit frightened.
In a different world, a blue rabbit raced across the sidewalk of a vacant town. He proved to be agile and quick as he was weaving over a broken light pole, a mailbox, and slide across a car that crashed into a store.
"Come at me you stupid...weird...tornado...thing?" The rabbit taunted horribly.
Without any warning, a massive active like twister tore out of one of the buildings close to the rabbit. He quickly leaped back to avoid the organic twister slamming its upper body where he was.
Once he was in a safe distance, instead of fleeing, he took out a green bamboo sword, with a smirk on his face. "So you finally show yourself…"
The black massive twister raised it's upper body, easily towering the rabbit with its shadow. Upon closer inspection, the rabbit realized that the strange twister was made up of countless small black creatures with small round yellow eyes, spiraling around.
"You better tell me where you took my sister you weird...looking twister…" He took out a bamboo sword which glowed morphing into a boomerang. "Yang-o-rang!
The bunny threw his boomerang as it was spinning rapidly towards the creature. It made a direct hit, however, it only went past its body as it lunged at the rabbit.
"Yikes!" The bunny leaped out of the way just in time when its upper body smashed into the ground. Once it made contact, the twister spread out into multiple small black creatures, immediately surrounding the rabbit.
"So are you guys going to tell me where you sent my sister? Or would you prefer a serious but kicking?" The bunny asked with a smirk on his face. He snatched his boomerang from the air which deformed back into a bamboo sword surrounded itself with an intense blue aura.
The creatures prepared to lunge at the rabbit, however, they quickly froze and looked up, which confused the rabbit.
"What…?" The bunny asked confused by their reaction. He was oblivious to the figure falling below him. "Why are you not attacking me? What, you think that because I'm outnumbered that you can just look up i-"
The bunny looked up and froze only to be met by the figure hurtling towards him, not giving him a chance to escape. "...Aw pellets."
BOOM!
The impact caused the dark creatures to be sent flying in different directions, Some of them disintegrate into dark ashes while the remainder joins together to form the twister like form again and sank into the ground vanishing insight.
Once the dust cleared up, the blue rabbit found himself under a certain black puppy, who was unconscious.
"What the…?! Get off of me furball!" " He quickly shoved the dog out of the way.
The bunny climbed out of the crater and scanned the area to realize that all the small creatures were gone.
"Well, that's just great!" He snapped angrily. He glared at the motionless black and red dog. "My one chance to kick that creature's but and this stupid furball scared it off!"
