"Do you have all your suff?", asked Hijikata seeing the Yorozuya approaching in his direction.
After the meeting at Yorozuya's home, they all decided to arrange a time and location as a starting point.
"Aye, aye!", responded Gintoki with a sailor greeting.
"I'm glad you've come, Yorozuya. Do you know when does the pilot come?", asked Kondo.
Gintoki shook his head.
"That idiot will surely come when he..."
Gintoki couldn't finish the sentence, when he noticed that a giant object was giving them shade. Looking up, he saw it was a ship. And that ship was going straight to them.
"STAND BACK!", cried Kondo, when he saw it was going to crush.
Fortunately, the comrades acted quickly and managed to escape the ship approaching them. The latter landed abruptly against the surface of the earth.
"Oi, Kintoki! I'm here, ha, ha, ha, ha!". Sakamoto came out from the ship as if nothing and wawed stupidly.
PAF!
Gintoki ran with super speed and gave him a flying kick.
"YOU ALMOST KILLED US! AND IT'S GINTOKI!"
"Ha, ha, ha, ha. Nice to see you, my friend."
Gintoki snorted.
"I don't know if I think the same..."
"Apparently we're all ready.", interrupted Shinpachi. "We better hurry up to leave."
"Yeah, hopefully this will be easier to search than the Shikon jewel." said Sougo.
"By the way, Kintoki, what exactly do you plan to do in GR-000000001?"
Gintoki chose to ignore the fact that Sakamoto called him Kintoki. It wasn't now worth beating him.
"We're going to look for the Chaotic Emerald. A client of those three assigned them the work. We only go for the reward.", said Gintoki.
Sakamoto placed a hand on his chin in a thoughtful pose.
"Mmm... I get it. And what aspect does this emerald have?"
"It's black and of a considerable size.", said Kondo.
"Pilot-san, do you have any idea when will we reach the Dead Zone?", asked Sougo, looking out through one of the aircraft's windows.
"In a normal ship it'd take us days to arrive to our destination, but being this one of the lastest models at the market, It'll take us just a couple of hours to arrive. This baby is designed to travel greater distances in less time.", he said proudly.
"That's impressive, Sakamoto-san!", exclaimed Shinpachi happily.
"By the way, where's that mate of yours who almost never appears?", asked Kagura suddenly.
Sakamoto looked her.
"Oh, you mean Mutsu? She's serving a customer. Believe it or not, we're not always together, ha, ha, ha, ha."
"Tch, this trip's going to be long.", lamented Hijikata.
3 hours later...
"Are we clooseeer?", asked Kagura and Gintoki for the umpteenth time, bored.
"Stop at once! You're making me mad!", yelled Hijikata.
"Your simply presence makes me mad, Hijikata-san. If I could kill you right now I would, but unfortunately the author requires your presence.", said Sougo.
"Shut up, you fucking sadist!"
"Oi, Sakamoto, what are you doing?", asked Shinpachi, catching a glimpse of Sakamoto grinning like a maniac.
"We're about to enter the Dead Zone. Hold on because there'll be turbulence!", exclaimed Sakamoto, pulling a lever.
Suddenly, the ship started to shake and, before everyone knew it, they were against the wall, trying to make sure the pressure didn't crush them. The aircraft was going at super speed beyond the allowed limits, and they all reached to observe through one of the windows that they were going through some kind of psychodelic tunnel of differents shades of blue.
Then, it happened.
Sakamoto, stunned, observed a strange golden light wich seemed to grow larger as they approached. It was then, that the light gulped them and, unwittingly, they were already in Dead Zone galaxy.
