Note: Sorry for the long delay. But here's the next chapter. Hope you enjoy. Super Saiyan Crash owns his version of Crash and Crunch, and Julia, and I own nothing, but my OCs.
Episode XVIV: Death Town
We see Stitch, Fox, Pikachu, Mario and Link knocked out with bandages and blood stains all over them. Stitch was the first to wake.
"Buchi Boo?" Angel asked beside Stitch.
"Buchi Boo" Stitch weakly replied.
Angel was so happy that he was alive. So she rubbed her nose with his.
Then Mario woke up as well as Fox, Pikachu and Link. And their lovers also being happy that they're alive.
"Pikachu? I was worried that you might've been dead" Female Lucario said embracing him.
"Agh!" Pikachu yelled.
"Sorry" Female Lucario said immediately letting go of him.
"Link.." Zelda said holding Link's hand.
"I'm so glad you're ok" Peach said to Mario.
"It looks like I might not be able to fly a ship anytime soon.." Fox said grimly as he looked at his chapped off arm.
"We'll find a way for you to fly a ship again" Krystal assured Fox.
"There's always something" a female voice said.
Everyone looked in the direction where the voice was coming from. And what came from the shadows was a female tiger walking on two legs.
"Who are you?" Zelda asked.
"I'm Tigress. Me and my husband and child rescued you all" she said.
"Oh. So you have a family then?" Female Lucario asked.
"In a way, yeah" Tigress said.
"What do you mean by that?" Krystal asked.
Then a small goose comes out doing some Kung Fu moves.
"Hiya! I'm the son of the mighty Tigress and the awesome Dragon Warrior, Zem!" the small goose said.
"Dragon Warrior?" everyone asked.
"Well.. he's not really a 'dragon'. He's a.." Tigress was saying, then a huge panda comes out with some scars on him also doing Kung Fu moves.
"Hoiya! I'm the master of Kung Fu. The legendary and, the most incredibly awesome, Dragon Warrior, Po" The huge panda said.
Everyone looked confused.
"How does a Tiger and a Panda have a goose for a son?" Link asked.
"He's adopted" Tigress said.
"Oh" everyone said.
"Hey, where are the bandicoots?" Pikachu asked.
"Oh, one of them is over there. Sad to say, is in a coma. And, by the looks of things, it looks like he might wake up anytime soon" Tigress said.
We see SSC Crunch lying there unresponsive with a bandage around his head where most of his blood seems to be coming out of.
"Poor guy.. so where are the other two?" Female Lucario asked.
Elsewhere, we see a town. Is was foggy and hard to see. Lots of structures damaged, light posts bent, dead bodies in numerous places. But most of all, it was quiet. With only the sounds of flies feasting on the flesh of the dead bodies. There was also bloodstains in the grass and burnt marks on trees. It's as if some kind of a combination of war and experimentation took place.
SSC Crash and CZA Crash on the ground. They got up and looked around. And the first thing they noticed was the horrible smell in the air. But it wasn't slaves being worked to death this time, it was actual death that's been around for quite a while.
"Blah! That stench is worse than in Spyro's world!" CZA Crash said.
"Ugh! It is bad.. but where are we?" SSC Crash asked.
They looked around to find clues. They found a note that's on a hood of a car.
SSC Crash picked it up and read the following:
'August 21st 2009, after a long time of learning how to write I can finally focus on something in my spare time. Our occupiers are really powerful and every Digimon that went up against them failed. I just hope that someone will come and get us out of this mess before things get worse'
"2009? How long ago was that?" CZA Crash asked.
SSC Crash looked over and saw a torn piece of a calender. He picked it up and examined it.
"Hmm.. judging by this torn calender.. I'd say it was 4 years ago" SSC Crash said.
"Oh man.. Do you think whoever wrote that is still alive?" CZA Crash asked.
"Not sure.. But I have a feeling we're not alone here.." SSC Crash said.
Meanwhile, back with the rest of the group, Tigress is explaining to them on what might happen to them.
"So, they're in a town where death is everywhere?" Fox asked.
"Yes. It's called Death Town. They experimented on a town sometime after invading the planet. There were terrible experiments being made. It was said that everyone went crazy. Even the nicest of people went insane and ended up dying. I heard that there was a group of Digimon that did survive the chaos. But sadly, it wasn't until a year later that they started to be affected by the experiment. Nobody if there are any still around or not" Tigress said.
"That's horrible! I sure hope they're around" Zelda said.
"You better hope they aren't insane too. Because if they are.. they have more of a chance of being killed" Tigress said.
Everyone stared at each other.
"So.. what-a should-a we do now?" Mario asked.
"We'll need all the help we can get. We'll have to free everyone from those prison camps so they can help fight back this empire" Tigress said.
"And the bandcoots?" Link asked.
"We'll have to get that one some help first. There's nothing we can do at this point for the other two" Tigress said.
Elsewhere, Specter is waiting patiently for something. Then a dark minion runs up to him and bows before him.
"The cameras are up and running" the dark minion said.
"Good" Specter said.
He pushed a button and moved Female Spyro and Julia's cages to where they can see the screen better. And the screen turned on and an image of SSC Crash and CZA Crash walking cautiously.
"Now you'll get you see your beloveds crumble and die before your eyes" Specter said.
Julia and Female Spyro just stared speechless. All they can do is hope that the ones they love won't give in to the madness that awaits them.
A/N: I know it's 2014 now, but I'm going to use the year I started this on as the timeline for this story.
