Piccolo groaned as he sat and began to meditate. But it was easier said than done when Capsule Corp was filling with these friends of Sonic. They were learning this was their new place of meeting thanks to Sally... Which wouldn't be bad if not for the fact that altogether they were as noisy as a chaotic marching band. Which was worse for him as a Namekian who has incredibly strong ears.

"Who ate my sandwich!?"

And then there was...Vegeta.

"Whoever doesn't reveal who ate my sandwich, I am going to smack them so hard they'll meet their grandparents' grandparents!"

"AH!" several panicked.

"VEGETA!" Bulma's voice snapped

"What?! You don't just take another man's sandwich and not expect an asswhooping!"

"Can you for once not hurt people!?"

"What is that combination of words?" Vegeta asked.

"Oh lord…"

"And he's one of your world's protectors?" Tails asked Piccolo.

"Vegeta...is a complicated being…" Piccolo sighed, sitting up, "But his power is amazing as is Goku and the children of both."

"Really? But he doesn't look like a person who is a dad..." Tails muttered, "Is that a Saiyan thing?"

"Goku hasn't aged much since I knew him when he was 20 something," Piccolo explained, "Saiyans seem to age much slower than Earthlings."

"Huh, kinda like Mobians...noted," Tails replied

"No offense, Piccolo...but I have a hard time believing this guy saved the world." Knuckles spoke.

"Well...I mean he helped...Goku did most of the work…" Piccolo smiled at Vegeta who twitched.

"I heard that, Namekian!" Vegeta snapped.

"Oh yeah? What can you do about it, Vegeta?" he smiled.

"Grr…"

"He really reminds me a lot of Shadow…" Amy muttered.

"Your boyfriend said the same thing," Vegeta spoke, "The hell is a Shadow?"

"Best guess...if Sonic is like their Goku...Shadow is another Hedgehog with amazing power...and essentially their world's Vegeta," Piccolo spoke.

"You guessed all that?" Bulma asked.

"No...I learned it from reading Knuckles' mind and memories to know what we should expect," Piccolo smirked.

"Oh you just have a retort for everything don't you, Green man?" Vegeta crossed his arms.

"Maybe I do, maybe I don't," Piccolo smirked once more.

"Can you not?!" Bulma complained, pushing them away from one another, "Also please be quiet. We need to concentrate on making that new body for Nicole."

"Hmph." Vegeta scoffed.

"This is some heavy work, and me and Papa aren't exactly the creators of the method. And building a bio-android is different from fixing Android 16." Bulma went on, "And it's for sure different than my check ups with 18."

"I still can't believe you guys have such concepts," Tails spoke, "On Mobius, being turned into a Robian is considered one of the most advanced things we had. But I guess if you guys have aliens who can turn into a Super mode on their own...this is about to scale."

"Blame Gero...His crazy hate for Goku drove him to push the field beyond comprehension." Bulma sighed, "Sadly, his shortcomings are in the fact he had a simple remote to control them...and he's too dumb to realize how strong free will is. And he underestimated literally everyone else..."

"I think all scientists are like that," Vegeta spoke.

"Hah? Since when have I…"

"Didn't you bring our baby son in a plane to the battlefield just 'cause you hated being left behind?" Vegeta argued, making Bulma flinch and pause as she realized he was right, "Yeah...I thought so."

"Tails...please don't make mistakes like this in the future," Amy spoke.

"Taking notes…" Tails muttered sheepishly.

"Wait...so you guys had an Eggman?" Knuckles realized.

"Emphasis on past tense," Vegeta spoke.

"What happened?" Amy asked.

"Uh...If you really want to know...cover the kid's ears." Vegeta pointed to Tails.

"What? I can handle...Hey!" Tails grunted as Piccolo cupped his ears.

"He got his head chopped off and then stomped into mulch by one of his perfect creations," Vegeta told the others, "Then Trunks...not this one...one from an alternate future blew the entire lab and Gero's remains to kingdom come."

"We really need that to happen to our crazy madman…" Knuckles muttered honestly.

"You guys have time travel, too?" Amy blinked.

"Bulma invented it...in the future," Vegeta spoke.

"It's very complicated…"

"We're familiar with it..." Amy sighed.

"By the way…" Bulma asked, "How old are you guys?"

"They're all kids," Piccolo spoke, "Knuckles is one of the eldest among them...in human years, he's 16. But they are remarkably mature for their age so it could also be a Saiyan-like situation."

"Given who we had to deal with, most of us had to mature up to deal with Eggman," Tails explained, "Back then, he wasn't even called Eggman. That's just something he stuck with after we all kept calling him that."

"Hmm...I guess that does sound similar...Like when Goku dismantled the Red Ribbon army…" Bulma muttered, "And then Gero went crazy and made the androids."

"Okay, just to be sure...Aliens...have they invaded your world?" Vegeta demanded.

"Yup. The Xorda," Amy replied, "They...they tried to destroy Mobius with a Black Hole Generator."

"Yeah. Aliens in our world don't do that," Bulma pointed to Piccolo and Vegeta who formed energy balls in their hands, "As you can see, flying and shooting energy beams are kinda normal out in space."

"Humans can do it, too." Piccolo countered, "Anyone can."

"Only people we know who can do that are Sonic and Shadow when they go Super Mode, Blaze -another friend of ours- and Silver, a hedgehog from the future with psychic powers," Amy explained before frowning a bit, "And tried to kill Sonic and a few of our other friends."

"What? Why?"

"He believes one of us was gonna be a traitor to the Freedom Fighters and result in the bad future he came from."

"Dumbass who doesn't get how time travel works, got it," Vegeta replied.

"I mean, that's not inaccurate." Amy agreed.

"Either way, things are a little bit above what you're used to in our world," Piccolo spoke, "We're gonna have to train you up. At least if we can separate our worlds once you go back...you'll be able to fly and blast things like us."

"Not it." Vegeta spoke, walking off.

"Piccolo, you're used to training kids..." Bulma spoke.

"Training...raising...I'm fairly sure I've raised Goku's kids more than he has," Piccolo responded.

"Well, for sure Gohan." Bulma nodded, "He's doing much better with Goten."

"He's only been back to life a few months…" Piccolo argued.

"Why do I feel a sudden uneasiness when training was mentioned?" Tails asked.

"This one..." he picked up Tails, "Will need a lot of it."

"Oh you just say that 'cause he reminds you of Gohan," Bulma smiled.

"Exactly...needs discipline and training to make him into a real warrior." Piccolo spoke as he tossed and caught Tails in a way so he was now under his arm, "I'll toughen him up."

"Seriously, I'm getting some major red flags right now…" Tails muttered as Piccolo carried him off, "Uh guys, help? Guys….guys?!"

"He'll be alright, right?" Sally asked.

"Believe it or not, Piccolo and Namekians as a whole are extremely parrental," Bulma smiled, "This is Piccolo's roundabout way of making sure Tails-the youngest-doesn't get hurt. I was worried when he tried this with Gohan once upon a time...but, for some reason, Gohan now sees Piccolo like a second father."

"As if Tails' life doesn't have enough twists and turns," Amy noted, earning a raised brow from Bulma, "...Well...Sally, you wanna take this?"

"Tails was born the exact day the first Robotnik took over the original Mobotropolis. A race of aliens saved his parents when they were Roboticized and we had to raise him during the whole ten years he had been in charge," Sally explained, "He's only had his real parents back in his life as of a year ago. His father tried to lead a rebellion to turn the monarchy into a democracy, got arrested, Tails and his mother broke him out of jail and Tails fought Sonic to let his parents escape, and I had to smack my brother and his father several times to get them to lower their weapons and talk it out, ending up with the Republic of Acorn with his mother on the council. There's also the fact he's known as the 'Chosen One' meant to perform a 'Great Harmony' which we think was fulfilled by him combing with every single Zone Double of himself to defeat Mammoth Mogul when he had transformed into Master Mogul with Enerjak's powers and then we thought it was when he and Shadow sent all the Chaos Emeralds into the Zone of Silence which turned into the Special Zone and fused them all into seven Emeralds."

"Hmm…" Bulma nodded, understanding that much to their shock, "So...exactly like Gohan. Gohan was born with some hidden power that made him the strongest when he tapped into it. Almost like he was some sort of chosen one, too. When he was 9, he had to fight a Bio Android named Cell who was stronger than Goku, Vegeta, Piccolo, and anyone. Not to mention made from their DNA." she went on, "But Goku, no matter how stupid it sounds...just had faith his nine year old son...had the power to defeat him. And...he was right...but I still don't like it." she huffed, "Then a few months back, we had to fight this thing called Majin Buu...which is a long story in of itself...short story, it split into a good Buu and Evil Buu. Evil Buu was destroyed and Good Buu lives with Mr. Satan."

"Big pink chubby guy with an antennae and a neat gold belt with an 'M' on it?" Amy asked.

"You met him?"

"No, he was the reason the conference Mr. Satan was holding ended by swiping him and running off," Amy replied.

"Yeah….Buu is one of the strongest beings on Earth...but he totally loves Mr Satan like family. He'll also only listen to him and sometimes Goku," Bulma sighed.

"I get the feeling this Goku guy brings trouble...a lot…" Knuckles muttered.

---

"This is horrific…" Sonic spoke, watching the Son family's three males eat.

Well 'eat' is one word for it. It was more like a feeding frenzy between three wild animals as they tore into a meal. Bowls upon bowls, and stacks of plates littered the table as they continued eating...and eating. It was amazing really, by now they must have each packed away three times their own body weight in food but it looks like they had room for more.

"Ooh…" all three eyed the last dumpling.

The three then began swinging for it as it bounced around. It devolved into the three clashing chopsticks like weapons with their arms moving at super speeds. It only got worse when all three turned Super Saiyan and moved even faster. All the while, a male hedgehog watched with reddish-brown eyes. He was an older hedgehog, roughly in his mid/late thirties with golden-blond quills wearing a red shirt, blue jeans, and a lab coat with his head quills reaching down to the middle of his back. He held up a chopstick before pointing it ahead. The chopsticks of the trio collided with his and the dumpling landed in his mouth. He swallowed it after chewing it.

"Hmm...Delicious, Madam. My compliments," the hedgehog chuckled, bowing to an older human woman in a yellow robe with her black hair pulled into a bun.

"What the? How the? Hah?!" Goku and Goten gawked.

"Simple mathematics," the hedgehog replied, "Had to calculate the angle of my chopstick, the speed necessary for the movement, timing of your movements...Honestly, if I hadn't done that, your eldest son would've won in three-point-seven seconds."

"You beat me to it, sir," Gohan smiled as the three powered down, "I have to admit I never thought anyone who couldn't move like us could pull it off." he then blinked as their chopsticks all exploded to dust.

"O...oh my," a young Mobian fox with black fur with his underbelly and muzzle a pure snow-white blinked, one of his two tails being an invert of colors with one having a black tip with the rest snow-whiet while the other had a snow-white tip and the rest black, an ahoge poking up a bit in his head fur.

"Ah, this is how feeding a trio of Super Saiyans goes." the human woman sighed, "Thank god for disposable chopsticks."

=Reminds me of Sonic and Tails when Bernadette and Chuck work together on making Chili-Dogs= a robotic hedgehog with a tuff of silver 'hair' on his forehead chuckle, putting an arm around a female blue hedgehog with blonde hair in a purple dress.

"You should see my Roll and Haseo when I make their favorite strawberry and blueberry pastries," a female Mobian fox giggled, her fur a rich platinum blonde while she wore a set of purple robes without a thing on her feet except for some beads on her right ankle.

"?!" the hedgefox nearly spat her tea out at that, a small embarrassed blush growing on her cheeks as she barely managed to swallow it, "We're not that bad…"

"Yes...yes you are, my Rolly-Polly," the blonde hedgehog countered.

"Mother…" the hedgefox whined, her ears drooping as the blush grew.

"Mom, Dad, how did you end up here?" Sonic asked.

=Well, after you went off after Eggman, your mother and I decided to go take a vacation. But while we were travelling, there was this big light and the road we were taking got replaced with a forest= the Robian explained.

"If it wasn't for Gohan, we'd probably be in a Tyrannosaurus Rex's stomach by now," Bernadette noted.

"And by the time I found Roll and her family...Mrs. Sakurai had scared off the T-rex the moment it stared hungrily at Haseo...and all it took was a stare," Gohan sheepishly admitted.

"The power of a mother's love for their child is strong, especially when they're in danger," the vixen spoke.

"That and knowing how to pull off a Hard Stare for when one forgets their manners," the hedgehog noted.

"I was just seeing the end of it and even I felt it," Gohan shuddered.

"..." Bernadette and the woman rubbed their chins in thought.

"I'm more than willing to do lessons for my fellow mothers," the fox smirked.

"Oh that sounds excellent, Aphrodite," Bernadette smiled.

"A look that can bring these boys to heel sounds perfect," the woman grinned.

"Ulp," Goten and Gohan gulped.

"Y-You don't need to learn that, Chi-Chi…" Goku began to sweat.

=Y-Yes. Indeed. Bernadette, there's no need for…=

"I'm learning it," both wives stated, glaring at their husbands.

"Ulp= Goku and Jules gulped at that.

"...uh...S-Subject change!" Goku exclaimed before looking at Sonic, "So why did Bulma have you go searching for the Dragon Balls?"

"Huh? Oh yeah...it's...kinda complicated," Sonic admitted, "That flash of light? That...yeah...you can kinda thank my enemy Eggman for that. See...he made this machine that would've let him rewrite reality itself, but I managed to stop him. However...before I could fix our reality, Eggman blindsided me and...well…" he motioned to the Mobians and the son Family, "Both our worlds ended up fused together. And I think some things got scrambled in our timeline, too. Because I was in New Mobotropolis fused with this West City place after that blindsiding and Sally wasn't a Robian, but before he messed with reality I was all the way in the Northern Tundra in his base with Amy, Tails, the Northern Tundra Freedom Fighters, and Silver with a knocked out Robian Sally that Silver had knocked out with his psychic powers."

"Huh…" the hedgehog blinked a bit, "A machine that lets one rewrite reality itself...That's a bit concerning."

"Eh, no worries. He has no way he can reach the person who helped him make the thing," Sonic shrugged, "And even if he could, I felt they had a huge falling out when Eggman did something that REALLY peeved off his 'partner.'"

"Wow. This Eggman guy seems like a real jerk," Goku noted, swapping seats to the couch as Goten jumped so as to sit in his lap and snuggled up to his father, making him chuckle, "You should probably bop him one and lock him up."

"He gets it," Sonic smiled, "And funny enough, I did manage to lock him up in the ol' loony bin when I ended up mentally breaking him by accident...and yet he somehow managed to fix his mind."

"Eh?" Goku blinked, "He almost sounds amazing…" he admitted, "Too bad he's evil though…" he sighed as Sonic nodded in agreement.

"Oh yeah…" Sonic said before shaking his head, "Sorry. Got off track for a moment. Anyway, the reason I'm gathering the Dragon Balls for Bulma is possibly unfuse our worlds...though so far? This new world is already having a few positives. Major one? No more Naugus and Sal's bro is back on the throne."

=That is a pretty good upside…= Jules noted =Elias was doing a decent job=

"It was actually this guy named Vegeta who scared him off!" Sonic laughed.

"Vegeta?" Goku blinked before jumping up as Goten flipped up and landed on his back, "AH! No fair, Vegeta! Taking a fight all for yourself! He should have called me so we could take turns fighting him!"

"Okay that I would've loved to see," Sonic smirked, "Naugus had trouble with one Saiyan, but two? Wth a Super Form no less? He'd probably be running for the hills."

=Super Mode?= Jules blinked before remembering the Son boys going Super Saiyan =Is that a thing your kind can do?=

"Yeah! It's called Super Saiyan! It's a transformation we take when we are mad," Goku explained, "But Goten was able to unlock it super easy...Ah! It must have been cause I was a Super Saiyan when…"

"Goku!" Chi-Chi cut him off before he said something inappropriate, both her and Aphrodite having their hands over Goten and Haseo's ears.

"Ahahaha...when...when we had him…" Goku chuckled sheepishly scratching the back of his head.

"...Heh. Funny enough, me and Shadow can go Super, too," Sonic admitted, "Though we need the Chaos Emeralds or Master Emerald to do that."

"Hmm...If you've done it a lot, can't you train your body to replicate the energy?" Goku asked, making Sonic blink.

"I've...honestly never thought of that before," Sonic admitted...before smirking a bit, "Oh Shadow would be jellie if he found I can go Super without the Chaos Emeralds before him...If I can figure it out of course."

"Sounds like training! I can help!" Goku smiled happily.

"Me too!" Goten cheered.

"No...you have school tomorrow," Chi-Chi countered.

"Darn it…" he groaned, falling over.

"Sounds fun, but I still got that thing I need to do for Bulma," Sonic shrugged, making Goku slump, "...But afterwards yeah. I can go for some training."

"Goku, you are the best at tracking down the Dragon Balls, why don't you help?" Chi-Chi spoke.

"Really?! I can go?!" Goku asked excitedly.

"Well it's better than you staying here and eating our guests' food," Chi-chi smiled.

"What...I don't do that…"

"Goku your hand is reaching for their food now," Chi-Chi smiled.

"..." Goku slapped his own hand, "That's not my fault...you know food can't be put near me without being eaten…"

"You should see Haseo when someone has some freshly made blueberry donuts," Skye spoke, raising a chopstick up to block Goku's hand, making him wince a bit as he pulled back.

"I'd love to help dad, but I have plans," Gohan spoke.

"I thought you were gonna go with Videl to the movies…" Goten spoke, only to yelp when Gohan panicked and tried to silence him by covering his mouth.

'Must be his girlfriend or something,' Sonic thought.

"Um...May I ask to come along?" Roll asked, rubbing an arm shyly, "It sounds really fun, especially the training part."

"Sure!" Goku beamed.

"Hmm...What do these Dragon Balls look like?" the hedgehog asked.

"Well, Skye, the Dragon Balls look like orange spheres with red stars in them," Chi-Chi explained.

"Ah, Roll?" the hedgehog looked at the hedgefox.

"This?" Roll asked as she reached into her tail and pulled out an orange sphere with four red stars in it.

"Ah! That's one of them!" Goku exclaimed, "How'd you find it?"

"I found it just before that dinosaur tried to eat us," Roll replied.

---

"Phwa…" Tails sighed, falling over as he panted heavily, "I already know how to fly...why do I gotta learn all over again?"

"You fly via your tails. That is impressive, but I noticed when you do it...you use up your stamina," Piccolo explained, floating with his legs crossed, "Natural flight uses muscles and bodily power. If you learn the Bukūjutsu, you'll subvert that. It could even make your method of flight even better."

"Duly...noted," Tails panted, "But why the weights...and why do I feel like you're gonna scream 'DODGE' before attacking me without warning?"

"Can you dodge?" Piccolo asked as he uncrossed his legs and touched the ground.

"Well, yeah."

"Then you have nothing to worry about when we get to actual combat training," Piccolo smiled simply, "You're the kind of kid who follows muscle bound idiots into battle, aren't you?" he asked with a more stern expression, "Being a little know it all might have saved the day more times then they admit, but at the end of the day...how many times do you get captured?"

"Uh…" Tails blinked.

"I've seen it from Knuckles. While you save the day a lot, it's only after you've had time to think of a genius plan. Nothing's wrong with that at all, but the fact remains unless you have an exterior factor, you rely on Sonic to do the punching," Piccolo explained, "Think of how much easier it would be if you were the one who could defeat your enemies with your own power and your intelligence. Your potential is far greater than you know, maybe even greater then this Sonic. But not because of destiny...because I can see that potential and it's all your own from years of you being a survivor and a hero."

"...Yeah. I suppose that's true…" Tails muttered as he sat up, "I mean...there have been times I've had to fight enemies by myself...Eggman, the Battle Birds...Naugus, but I had Shadow help in that battle."

"Tails, your friends are strong and important. But never forget you can do just as much yourself," Piccolo spoke, "I see a potential that can truly be worth something if it's polished. I'll be damned if this is permanent and I have to rely on someone who's more or less just another Goku."

"Right…" Tails nodded as he stood up, "Okay...I think I'm ready to resume."

"Good," Piccolo began, "First, I think we should begin with a simpler form of Ki control." he explained, aiming his hand and blasting a tree to splinters, "This...should probably be more useful to you."

"Got it," Tails nodded, holding his own hand out as he closed his eyes to concentrate.

"Now remember, don't put too much force into it, otherwise it'll…" Piccolo began before Tails fired out a small ki-blast at a decent sized boulder...before it suddenly flew back a few feet via, as if a strong tornado-force wind blew it back, "?!"

"What did I do?" Tails blinked.

"Hmm…" Piccolo smirked, "Well, first what you did was you changed the shape of your ki into an element. Not an easy thing for most."

"Really?" Tails asked as he opened his eyes, which soon widened at the boulder he had fired at as it sported a fairly large spiral shape within it, "I...did that?"

"Turning your Ki into an element is not exactly simple...let alone anything that isn't Fire," Piccolo spoke, "And it's not like you can learn to shoot water or earth...wind is just another ethereal element. But even still, to do this in general is amazing. Your talent might just be greater than I imagined."

"Huh...I guess so," Tails muttered, looking at his opened palm, "...I wanna try again. If I can get it down, I might be able to experiment with my element. Maybe like a stealth blast or something."

"Then let's begin," Piccolo spoke.

---

"Well...So much has changed indeed," Eggman muttered, looking at various screens within a large control room, "And new cities have indeed popped up...and my Dark Egg Legion has grown and changed for the better...in fact..." he tapped a button, "Attention all my Dark Egg Legion bases, I have some important announcements."

"Oh lord…" Lien-Da rolled her eyes.

"First off, I'd like to state something important. As of today, the Dark Egg Legion is no more…" Eggman stated, making Lien-Da blink a bit in surprise, "Instead...we shall be known as the Egg Army!"

'Egg A...WHAT?!' Lien-Da mentally snapped, "l...Lord Eggman, you can't be…"

"Nonsense! New world means new changes, including a name change for my army!" Eggman argued with a grin, "And what better name to make the people of this new world fear us than the Egg Army?!"

"Ugh…"

"Second off, my Egg Army; I've examined many of the new cities that have popped up...which is why we should start re-expanding my empire!" Eggman continued, "Starting with this West City and Satan City...no. New Robotropolis and Eggman City!"

"I really think this is a bad idea...intel suggests powerful beings who surpass our normal parameters live near there," Lien-Da spoke.

"Nonsense. Besides, Sonic's more important anyway," Eggman waved off, "And if he does interfere...well for one; he can't be in two places at once while he's busy with Metal Sonic."

"If you'd listen, you'd know this is a really...REALLY bad idea. The being who scared off Naugus lives in West City," Lien-Da restated.

"Oh that I'm not worried about. Before my Genesis Wave, I left a little something to spy on Sonic and friends in New Mobotropolis, which is now mixed with West City," Eggman grinned as he looked at screen, showing an alleyway as a broken mirror showed what looked like a poorly made doll of Tails with a red gem on an antennae on its head, "And it's not like they can handle Metal Sonic...and a 'monster' at the same time~"

"I have a bad feeling about this…" Lien-Da sighed, she then looked at a monitor, "Could you at least wait a little bit 'till what I think is about to happen happens?"

"Huh?" Eggman blinked, "What's that supposed to mean?! What? What cryptic thing are you on about?"

"Just trust me."

---

"Hmm...so even here, everything has drastically changed," a voice spoke as a hedgehog looked at West City, "Greatly so…"

He had black fur red streaks in his quills, his legs, and around his eyes with a tuft of white fur on his chest. He wore white gloves with black cuffs and a red tongue accented by gold rings on each wrist, with matching metallic air-shoes.

"...For some reason, I feel this is Sonic's fault...no. He wouldn't do stuff like this on purpose...most likely it's the doctor to blame," the hedgehog frowned a bit, "Furthermore...I feel beings...powerful beings, maybe even stronger than me and Sonic." he tensed as he looked forward, "Like that one…"

---

Vegeta tensed in the middle of eating. He put his food down as he stood up. He looked out the window as he felt something. No...someone far stronger than any of these new powers he'd felt 'till now. Maybe even greater then Naugus if he had to judge honestly.

"Bulma…" he spoke simply but sternly as she looked up from her notes, "I'm going out for a bit...I'll be just outside the city so if you need me, tell Trunks to come find me."

"Wait, wh-" Bulma blinked before Vegeta flew off, the shockwave blowing her notes and work around, "All of my hate!" she shouted before smiling, "Stay safe, you idiot."

---

"Hm?" Piccolo blinked as Tails noticed his flinch, "That's an amazing ki...Another Mobian with power this grand...This must be this Shadow you go on about."

"Shadow?" Tails asked.

"He and Vegeta are about to battle…" he explained, "Their Ki's are flared for combat...There's no avoiding it."

"...Hoo boy," Tails gulped at that, "Let's hope Vegeta doesn't push Shadow to unlocking his limiters."

"Limiters?"

"Yeah. He has these two rings on his arms that each limit his power," Tails explained.

"Tsk...That'll just piss Vegeta off...and he'll force him to fight full force," Piccolo growled, "Tails, we need to put training on hold...and stop them from blowing up the planet...again in Vegeta's case!"

"Got it mast-I mean...Mr. Piccolo," Tails nodded.

"I'll go and meet them. Get the others...maybe you guys can talk Shadow down…" he spoke, powering up and jetting off with a loud boom from his flight speed.

"Right...Maybe I should learn that flight thing...that is way fast…" Tails noted in awe.

---

"Hm?" Goku blinked as he helped Sonic retrieve a Dragon Ball, which was lodged into the top of a mountain, "Vegeta? But who's that other Ki?" he asked, floating down to Sonic and Roll.

"Vegeta?" Sonic blinked.

"Ah...Vegeta is in a serious mood for battle...and is meeting someone with a really strong Ki," Goku spoke with a stern face.

"...Oh he must've met Shadow," Sonic realized.

"Shadow?" Roll repeated.

"Another hedgehog with a stick shoved up his behind," Sonic snickered.

"I don't know what'll happen. If things get bad, I'll need to pop over and stop him." Goku spoke, "I can feel it...if they go full force...our planet could feel it." he gripped his fist, "But at the same time...it excites me to think of all the strong and amazing new people on our world...just thinking of fighting people like you and this Shadow...my blood gets pumping." he smiled, "Honestly...part of me hopes our world stays like this! So I have an excuse to push myself even harder..."

"Heh…" Sonic smirked at that, "I totally get that! Just standing next to you, I can tell you're an amazing guy, Goku."

---

Shadow looked up as an object landed on the ground, the dust cleared as Vegeta stood there with his arms crossed. Shadow's eyes narrowed as the two glared at one another. The glaring continued as the two took a step closer to one another. Before suddenly...there was a flash.

"Grr!" the two grunted as their elbows clashed, causing a shockwave.

The two skid back before Shadow swung his arm and sent arrow head-shaped blasts of energy at Vegeta. The Saiyan raised his hand as he unleashed a barrage of ki blasts that obliterated all of Shadow's attacks. The two began gliding across the ground as they fired back and forth at one another. Vegeta swung his hand and backhanded a blast from Shadow, meanwhile the hedgehog spun and swung his leg, kicking Vegeta's blast away.

"So...you must be this other Hedgehog I keep hearing about from Amy and Tails," Vegeta spoke.

"Boku wa Shadow...Shadow The Hedgehog," he crossed his arms simply.

"Ore wa Vegeta," Vegeta replied, pointing at himself with his thumb.

"You are without a doubt one of the stronger beings I've felt on this new world," Shadow spoke.

"You can sense Ki?" Vegeta asked.

"Ki?" Shadow asked, "So that is what you call your energy attacks. It's not the Chaos Force."

"That's why your attacks are different...they aren't made of your own energy. You are drawing it from another source…" Vegeta spoke.

"And yours are just your own energy turned into blasts," Shadow spoke.

"It seems we share a similar affinity for combat," Vegeta spoke.

"Hmph...It's only a matter of opinion," Shadow countered.

"I can already tell...I don't think you and I will get along," Vegeta smirked.

"On that we can agree," Shadow smiled.

At that, the two grunted before unleashing a pulse of energy from their bodies. Both grunted as they began unleashing more and more. Vegeta put his hands back as they cupped together his aura turning a purple color as it formed a sphere around him. Shadow held his hand up as a greenish-yellow energy formed the shape of a spear above his head before multiplying in number.

"Chaos…"

"Galick…"

"SPEARS/GUN!"

A Purple beam clashed with a concentrated barrage of energy spear blasts, resulting in a fairly large explosion. The energy attacks collided before exploding violently. The smoke cloud went up for maybe miles.

Shadow looked up only to flinch as Vegeta flew through the smoke and punched him with an uppercut, lifting him up. Shadow growled before swinging his leg and kicking Vegeta, sending him stumbling back. The two glared before smirking, they rushed forward and began swinging rapidly back and forth. Vegeta caught both of Shadow's punches before swinging his knee up and slamming it into his chest knocking the wind out of him. Vegeta flew up while holding Shadow's arms...and swinging him down into the ground. Vegeta flew higher up before flipping back and aiming his arms at the crater Shadow made before unleashing a barrage of ki blasts.

"Chaos Control!"

"Chaos wh-" Vegeta began before he was suddenly kicked on the side of the head, causing him to stagger back for the moment, "...Okay, how?"

"I'd tell you, but I think you better look," Shadow retorted, one of the gold rings on his wrist missing as he floated there.

"Huh?" Vegeta raised a brow before he noticed...a whole herd of Chaos Spears surrounding him, "...ah cr-"

"Chaos Spear," Shadow stated as he closed his opened fist, causing the spears to head right for Vegeta at near-blinding speed.

Vegeta began jumping from side to side at amazing speeds. He seemed to almost teleport with how fast he dashed from side to side to avoid the spears. Vegeta grunted as he backed into one before more and more began hitting him. Vegeta crossed his arms as he let them continue to strike. Shadow smirked before blinking as the smoke cleared to show a dome of gold tinted transparent light, Vegeta smirking in the center.

"Soka...your energy attacks can be cast from a distance, not just from your person," Vegeta spoke, "That's indeed a handy trick." he spoke as his barrier vanished.

"While yours has a whole host of uses, doesn't it?" Shadow countered.

"Hmph," Vegeta smirked.

The two rushed and clashed. Shadow swung a kick to Vegeta's face only for the Saiyan to slam a punch back. Shadow flipped back in the air before charging forward and punching Vegeta in the chest sending him skidding back across the ground. Vegeta growled before he charged and slammed his shoulder into Shadow sending him skidding back, the Saiyan warrior roared and swung his hand for a chop only to miss as Shadow vanished. Vegeta gasped before he was kicked and sent flying back, Vegeta stopped himself only to grunt as another kick hit his back. The Saiyan shot forward as Shadow appeared in front of him and landed another kick to his chin that sent him flying up. Shadow appeared to strike again, he stomped his foot into Vegeta's stomach...only to flinch as Vegeta's body curled and his leg slammed into Shadow's face, sending him flying back.

"...hmph," Shadow smirked as he managed to stop himself, using his thumb to wipe a bit of blood from his lip, "Not bad…"

"That's my line." Vegeta wiped his face with the cuff of his glove, "No wonder those brats kept bringing you up around me...you're a strong opponent. Enough to garner the attention of a Saiyan like me."

"Saiyan, huh...so you're an alien."

"I was not born on Earth, nor am I human," Vegeta confirmed, "I am Vegeta, Prince of all Saiyans."

"Prince, huh? Heh...well, that's where we differ slightly. You might be the prince, but I…" shadow began as the other gold ring on his wrist popped off, causing a red aura to appear around Shadow, "...am the world's Ultimate Life Form."

"Ultimate Life Form?" Vegeta smirked, "Aren't you a little short?"

"Funny," Shadow smiled, "I was thinking the same about you."

"Heh…" Vegeta laughed as a golden aura formed an outline around his body as his eyes turned green for a moment, "You are indeed...a worthy adversary!"

"Hmph, same Prince."

With that, the two entered into a combat ready stance as the sky began to darken from the clouds their energies attracted. The two moved ever so slightly before charging and clashing fists, causing a hole to form in the clouds above them. The two began swinging punches back and forth, dodging and weaving around one another as they just barely missed. Vegeta blocked a punch before swinging one which struck Shadow's face. Shadow grunted before swinging and striking Vegeta. Their attacks kept coming as they clashed back and forth. Both grunted as they swung and cross countered one another sending them both tumbling back.

Vegeta grinned as his golden outline began growing brighter and brighter ready to explode into a transformation only to stop as he felt another ki approaching. Both Vegeta and Shadow's auras died down as they looked to see Piccolo land nearby.

"Another alien?" Shadow asked as he and Vegeta floated down.

"I made it before Vegeta could become a Super Saiyan…" Piccolo sighed.

"Damn it, Namekian. The hedgehog and I were having fun before you interrupted," Vegeta frowned.

"I was stopping you before you did something reckless. Like blowing up the planet again," Piccolo spoke.

"Heh…" Vegeta scoffed.

"In case you didn't notice, your little fun has caused a massive storm to form over New Mobotropolis and West City," Piccolo noted as they looked up.

"Ah…" both realized it was indeed their fault for activating so much energy at once.

"Damn it...didn't realize that," Shadow scoffed, walking over and grabbing his wrist rings on the ground.

"I suppose I should stop before Bulma gets angry...that woman is a constant nag whenever I mess with her precious weather…" Vegeta spoke as he crossed his arms and powered down, 'Tsk...and just as I was about to go Super Saiyan...It's been a while since someone honestly drove me to transform in battle like this.'

'This Saiyan...he was transforming...does he have a Super Mode he can attain on his own?' Shadow looked at Vegeta, 'Saiyans...a truly scary race I venture…'

"I expected convincing you two to stop would be much harder…" Piccolo muttered.

"Hmph," Shadow scoffed as he began to walk off.

"And where are you off to?"

"Back to Station Square. No doubt G.U.N is taking these new changes way out of proportions," Shadow answered.

"Bulma said something about them…" Vegeta spoke, "She says she wants to do something about them before they make the situation worse. She probably won't mind if I pay them…"

"No!" Piccolo snapped, making them both flinch, "Stop paying people beatings! You're the one who makes just as much of a mess as Goku does!"

"Me as much of an idiot as Kakarot!?"

"And you're no better than Sonic!" Piccolo snapped, pointing at Shadow.

"What…" Shadow blinked.

"Neither of you can sit down for a moment without wanting to run off for adventure or trouble!" Piccolo growled, "Why do I get the feeling the four of you are gonna be my new migraine!?"

"You're being paranoid…" both replied.

"Grr…" Piccolo growled as he began powering up out of sheer rage.

---

"Brr…" Amy shivered, "Anyone else feel that?"

"I do..someone must've angered Piccolo or one of the Saiyans," Knuckles replied.

"Probably both," Bulma sighed as she looked over her notes, "I think I got something that can work for Nicole, but I'd like to use the system to potentially help a Robian first. Just so the system works like I need it to."

=If Sonic can find his father and/or Sir Charles, the one who originally created the original Roboticizer, they may be able to help with this= Nicole suggested from a nearby monitor.

"Hmm...If we get Sonic's dad, we'll need a Senzu Bean," Knuckles noted.

"You know what a…" Bulma began.

"Read Piccolo's memories when he read mine," Knuckles replied.

"What's a Senzu Bean?" Amy asked.

"They're these magic beans grown by a talking cat," Knuckles began, "Actually...that sounds kinda normal. Uh...what makes them so great is they can recover any physical damage you take and can fill your stomach for ten days."

"They are very handy to everyone," Bulma explained, "They heal your body from damage like a broken spine or holes from getting stabbed. And restore stamina and energy so you are back in fighting condition. But...Goku tried to counter his heart virus with them once...only for his symptoms to get worse. They can't treat diseases it seems."

"Meaning they are kinda only good for situations like fighting and life or death combat," Knuckles spoke, "But they can still be used to help someone recovering get back some much needed energy and nutrients."

"Meaning that if we have one, then Sonic's dad could take it the moment he's Deroboticized and his injury will heal up!" Amy realized.

"Injury?"

"The reason he's a Robian is because during the end of the Great War, he took a nasty shot to the head," Amy recalled, "It was so bad that he was minutes from death when Chuck got him into the original Roboticized he had made. It was meant to keep him alive by turning just the injured ahead into metal, but it turned him completely metal and made him lose his free will."

"I see...so it was a rush of an unfinished project," Bulma nodded, "I can understand the desperation of it to save family, so I can't blame him. But still I can imagine how bad he felt when his unfinished invention was taken by Eggman," she frowned, "But I have a better grasp of the situation. Very well, I think this can work. Knuckles, did Piccolo bring any Senzu?"

"He claims he tries to always carry a few," Knuckles nodded.

"Maybe Sonic has found his father?" Bulma muttered as she picked up a cellphone, "Thank god I built a call function into the Radar he took."

---

"What do you mean it's underwater?!" Sonic panicked as Goku floated over a large lake.

"Yeah, it's right down there at the bottom," he smiled, "No worries. It's just a quick swim. Better than the time I had to dive into a cave at the bottom of the ocean to get one!"

"I can't swim!"

"Huh? You can't?!" Goku gawked, "But I mean you have that crazy cool super speed...I bet if you used it while in the water, you'd move like a speed boat!"

"Nope. I sink," Sonic replied, "I can run over it, but when I stop, I sink. Tails thinks that it's something 'bout molecules and…" a splash made them look at the lake to see Roll's clothes folded by it, "..."

"Ah...she beat me to it!" Goku laughed as he floated over and landed next to Sonic.

"Well, at least I don't have to go into it now," Sonic chuckled in relief before beeping went off from the radar, "I get it! I get it! There's a Dragon Ball here!"

"That's new…" Goku blinked as he tapped the button at the top to see if it did anything, the two then jumped back as the screen flickered and now displayed Bulma on a video call.

=Oh good! You met Goku!=

"Bulma!?" Goku and Sonic blinked.

=It's a new upgrade to the Dragon Radar= Bulma informed on seeing Goku's expression =Anyway, Sonic, have you by chance found your dad?=

"Huh? Yeah. He's at Goku's place," Sonic replied once he shook the surprise off.

=Really!? That's great! I wanted to test my machine and see if I can return him to normal. It'd probably go faster if your Uncle was here, too=

"Return dad to normal…" Sonic blinked for a moment, "Really? You mean it!?" he asked excitedly, "Oh wait...He, uh...He has this…"

=Sure, plus we got some Senzu Beans incase the process opens his old wound so he'll be perfectly fine=

"Sen-what?"

"They're beans that can heal you from a lot of stuff and eating just one makes you full for ten whole days, just uh...not heart stuff," Goku noted.

=Actually, it's just diseases...Goku forgot to take his medicine…= Bulma replied in a cheeky teasing tone =But if they can heal Vegeta's spine after it was shattered to dust by Cell according to Krillin...I'm sure your dad's wound would be no problem=

"Really? ...Man, that'd be awesome, Bulma," Sonic noted.

=Goku, think you could do a quick drop off?= Bulma asked =I'd call Chi-Chi and ask if your kids would, but you're the only one I know who can use Instant Transmission=

"Oh yeah...I keep forgetting to teach the kids," Goku chuckled, rubbing the back of his head sheepishly, "Though I don't think Goten would like the training...ah right. I'll be right there!" he put his index and middle finger to his forehead before vanishing.

"Wow…" Sonic blinked.

=And…= Bulma looked down at her wrist as if she had a watch before everyone panicked.

=Here we are!= Goku cheered.

=How'd he do that?!= Knuckles panicked.

=N-nani?! Nani sore?!= Haseo exclaimed in surprise.

=Hahaha...I ended up bringing everyone, too...hahaha!= Goku chuckled.

=Huh...You just teleported an entire group of people instantly= Skye noted =Honestly, I'd bet most people would mistake it as you dematerializing and moving at the speed of light if they didn't experience it themselves=

=Yeah, it's a tricky move to learn. Planet Yardrat has some cool powers like that= Goku explained.

"That was kinda like Chaos Control," Sonic noted before a splash went off.

"Got it!" Roll called as she got out of the water, wearing a black and pink one piece swimsuit with a heart cutout over her chest, exposing the complete cleavage while holding up a Dragon Ball with one star in it.

=Who was that?= Amy asked =...Was that another girl?=

=Amy, please don't start…= Sally sighed.

"Uh, we got more Dragon Balls to get!" Sonic spoke as Goku teleported next to him.

"See ya guys!" Goku cheered as Sonic pushed the button ending the call.

"Phew. Close call," Sonic sighed in relief as Roll pulled out the Four Star and the Seven Star from the cliffside Goku had gotten.

"Three down," Roll noted, looking at them, "Huh...No matter which way I turn them, the stars seem to stay in place."

"I never noticed that..." Goku muttered, "That explains why Grandpa's Four star ball was always perfectly set on Gohan's hat as a little kid."

"You stuck one of these on your son's head?" Sonic blinked.

"Well, it was a time of peace and we didn't need Shenron, but I wanted to keep the Four Star ball since it was my Grandpa's treasure." Goku explained, "And my son Gohan was named after my Grandpa...so it felt right."

"Meaning this is more of a family heirloom," Roll noted as she put her clothes on over the swimsuit, "I can relate with that."

"I haven't been able to hunt it down...It's been a while since I had the time to do so," Goku chuckled, "What with raising Goten and making sure Gohan doesn't slack off on his training. Also, we have to go to Goten's school a lot...Apparently he hasn't learned to control his strength all the way. Being a dad is a lot of work!" he chuckled, "Also, I've only been alive a few months…"

"Oh that's right...I think I heard you died?" Sonic spoke.

"Yep...two times!" Goku cheered, "The first one was because me and Piccolo needed to stop my evil brother Raditz...the second time was when I needed to teleport Cell away from Earth before he exploded." he explained, "But Old Man Kai gave me my life back...so I'm back to be with my family."

"So this dragon isn't the only thing that can bring back the dead?" Sonic asked.

"Kinda...but Shenron is much better at it. But even Shenron has rules, he can't revive people who died of natural causes...and he can't revive people more than once," Goku explained, "But...other than that he can revive lots of people all at once. He even brought back the entire planet Earth."

"...Wow," Sonic blinked in amazement at that.

"Yeah, as long as those two conditions aren't met he can revive anyone without limit," Goku explained.

"Eh? But...doesn't that second rule not work with the third?" Roll asked.

"Huh?" Goku tilted his head.

"If he revives a lot of people at once and was asked to do it twice, wouldn't that mean he couldn't since everyone already died once?" Roll asked.

"Oh right...See, there are two Shenrons," Goku explained, "The one here on Earth, and the one on Namek, Piccolo's home planet. Their Shenron is called Porunga, and he is a much bigger and stronger dragon. He doesn't have any restrictions, so whenever a situation like that happens, I pop over to Namek and ask for their help."

"Soka…" Roll noted, nodding.

"But you guys are all new to our world," Goku added, making them realize his point, "Shenron's magic has never been used on a Mobian. Heck I bet if any friends or family of yours are in Other world now, he could bring them back!"

"Other World?" Sonic and Roll repeated.

"That's where all spirits go when they die. Then they get sent to heaven or hell. It's another world within our world...kinda trippy, huh?" he laughed, "It's where I went to train with King Kai, and where the Kaioshin...hmm...basically Gods live. I could take you there someday, just don't let anyone who works for Enma-sama find out..." he whispered.

"Enma Daiou-sama?!" Roll gasped, "You've met him?"

"You know what he's talkin' 'bout?" Sonic asked.

"He's one of the three patron Kami for my clan. Inari-sama, Amaterasu-sama, and Enma Daiou-sama."

"Yeah I met him. He greeted me the first time I died," Goku smiled, "He runs the whole afterlife system. He allowed me to train with King Kai. He...he doesn't like the Dragon Balls...as you can imagine...he says that it makes a lot of paperwork."

"Oh dear…" Roll gasped, 'Gomen nassai, Enma Daiou-sama. I'm going to be making a lot of paperwork for you…'

"Well, let's get going. Four more to go!" Sonic beamed.

---

"Hmm...interesting…" Bulma's father, Dr. Briefs, muttered as he and Bulma examined Jules, "I have to admit, this process is amazing. But I do not believe it is totally finished. If the inventor had a little more time to work out the kinks, this could be a marvel of science and innovation."

"Yes...but this Eggman they've told me about stole it and enslaved their planet for years," Bulma stated with a frown, "Knowing he took a machine meant to help Mobius and converted into a tool of fear, enslavement, and evil makes me sick…"

=Honestly, you don't really have to do this. I'm fine with how I am. Even if I do miss Bernadette's cooking...and being able to feel things without having to have sensors installed...and not waking her up in the middle of the night when she turns in bed and feels cold metal…= Jules muttered.

"No offense...but my husband is the epitome of pridefulness…" Bulma smiled, "I know when a proud man is unable to say what he really wants. Besides, I'm doing this for a slightly selfish reason of my own. As far as I see it, helping you just makes my work easier," she smirked.

"You're better off letting her fix you," Vegeta spoke, leaning against a wall in the corner, "When my wife has made a choice, not even heaven and hell can turn her back. It's best to let her be selfish and give you back your body. You owe your wife that much, don't you?" he smirked.

=...= Jules looked at Bulma's eyes and shuddered =You have the same look as Bernadette does when she won't back down from something…= he slumped =Alright...But, uh, are you sure that this Senzu bean thing will fix that gunshot wound in my head when I'm flesh and blood again?=

"Believe me, as long as you're not sick with something, you'll be back to normal," Vegeta spoke.

"This coming from a man who's had his spine shattered, stabbed, shot through the heart...blown up...and turned to stone," Bulma listed.

"The last two are the same thing…" Vegeta argued, "Save for that one...those damn beans healed me back to fighting shape the moment I swallowed it. Trust me as far as we know, they can regenerate limbs...we...just don't want to test that."

=Limb regeneration? ...Yeah, I don't wanna test that either= Jules cringed.

"Believe me, these things will heal you back to perfect health," Vegeta assured, "I've suffered enough mortal wounds and been saved by them to confirm a simple wound like a shot to the head...is child's play."

"That must imply a lot of how well you fight," Shadow smirked, leaning against another wall opposite Vegeta.

"Wanna come over here and say that hairball?" Vegeta sneered.

"Don't start," Sally spoke, sitting at a nearby table with Elias.

=Indeed. Dr. Briefs and his daughter need concentration= Nicole added.

"Hmph…" both scoffed.

"It's like Ego in stereo…" Bulma muttered.

"...I apologize, but you forgot to carry the four here," Skye noted, looking at the monitor they had been typing calculations on.

"Huh?" Bulma looked at it.

"Right here," Skye pointed.

"?! Oh shoot!" Bulma exclaimed.

"Well, it's a lot of work to be done here, Honey. A mistake or two is bound to happen for just the two of us in reverse engineering all this," Dr. Briefs spoke.

=Chuck should be here soon enough= Jules noted before the doorbell rang.

"I got it!" Trunks cheered, blurring to the door as he opened it, "Hello!"

"Oh, hello," an older blue hedgehog with a grey mustache and bushy brows greeted, wearing brown gloves, boots, and open vest, "My name is Charles Hedgehog and I'm looking for my brother Jules and his wife Bernadette."

"Oh...You're Sonic's Uncle Chuck!" Trunks realized, "In the lab." he smiled, pointing the way.

"That...is a glorious mustache…" Vegeta noted.

"Why thank you, my good sir," Charles nodded as he walked in.

"Don't even think of it," Bulma spoke up.

"It's my face…" Vegeta grumbled.

"Regardless, I think we have plenty of extra help," Bulma smiled, "Too bad Tails is bonding with Piccolo. I'd bet he'd be handy here too."

"That Namekian makes for a great babysitter…" Vegeta muttered.

---

"Just close your eyes and relax," Piccolo spoke as he sat in a meditating pose, "There is a time for physical training...and a time for mental training. This will be especially helpful for you. If you can hone that brain of yours, you can outpace any opponent in battle." he opened his eyes as he looked at Tails...who drifted off into a nap, "Hmmm...maybe too relaxed." he sighed, picking him up under his arm, "Alright fine...we'll put an end to this lesson for now. I guess there is only so much you can do after unlocking your Ki."

---

"Whoo! Got another Dragon Ball!" Goku beamed, poking out of a tree while holding a Six Star Dragon Ball with a bird pecking at his head, "How many does that make, guys?"

"Including the one we got from that cave earlier, I think we got five in total," Sonic answered as he and Roll looked over the ones they had.

"That means there are 2 more…" Goku spoke, "But we've been almost all over the mainland now…" he looked out at a nearby beach, "Meaning the last two have to be somewhere out there in the ocean and island area…"

"O-out there?!" Sonic asked.

"I can fly, so I'll be able to find them faster," Goku explained.

"Yes! That's a good idea!" Sonic agreed, not wanting to go out to sea.

"You really…" Roll began before her ears twitched, "...Explosions."

"Hmm?" the two blinked, looking over at the hedgevixen as she looked out in the distance.

"I'm hearing explosions nearby…" Roll stated, "...Goku-san, are there any nearby cities from here?"

"Mmm...I think there's Satan City," Goku replied, "But why would there be explosions? ...Wait. Are they fireworks?"

"Iie. Like those of missiles and bombs," Roll replied, shaking her head.

"Wait...Gohan!" Goku panicked as he powered up and flew off with a sonic boom.

"After that flying guy in orange!" Sonic called, running off with Roll following, managing to keep up with the speedy blue hedgehog.

---

"HA!" Gohan roared as a pile of rubble exploded off of him, his casual clothing ruined. He grunted and swung his arm, removing his attire to reveal his purple gi, "Just one day without things exploding…" he sighed as he helped a girl with short hair stand up, "Videl-san, are you okay?"

"I am," she nodded, "Demo...who could…?"

=OHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO!= a voice laughed as a hoard of robots walked out of the dust cloud, led by what looked like a robotic hedgehog with red optics with a screen showing Eggman on it popping out of one of the robots in the front =Greetings people of Satan City! I am Dr. Eggman, the greatest Scientific genius in the world, and your intellectual superior! As of today, this city belongs to the Eggman empire, and shall be renamed Eggman City!=

"It's the guy Jules-san warned us about…" Gohan spoke as he looked around at the destruction, he growled as his face grew angry, "He...How dare he…" he growled, seeing people hurt by the explosion, "Ghh…" at that, a white aura exploded off of him as his hair spiked up more and his bang shifted to the other side of his face.

"...High sources of energy detected," the robotic hedgehog spoke, stopping for a moment to notice Gohan, "Orders, Master Eggman?"

=Mmm...he's not Sonic, but...he might be a thorn later. Metal Sonic, take care of him while the rest of my Egg Army takes care of the rest of the city= Eggman ordered =But don't injure too many. Thinking of bringing back my Egg Grapes...more 'batteries' the better I say=

"..." Gohan's eyes widened, able to hear that, "You...I'll never forgive something like that!" he roared, sending out a shockwave which knocked the robot back against its will, "Ha!" he roared vanishing...and reappearing in front of it before punching it, sending it flying through several buildings.

=?!= Eggman tensed at that =...Metal Sonic, commence full combat mode!=

"Acknowledged," the robotic hedgehog spoke, his optics glowing as he bursted out of the rubble and charged at Gohan.

"Ha!" Gohan roared as he clashed and overpowered the Robot known as Metal Sonic, making Eggman tense once again.

"Power...still rising...analysis: power level...immeasurable…" Metal Sonic spoke as Gohan kicked him, sending him skidding back.

=I-Immeasurable!?= Eggman gawked.

"Masenko!" Gohan roared, raising and putting his hands together before swinging them down and unleashing a yellow fiery beam right at Metal Sonic.

Metal Sonic's response was to summon a black diamond-shaped shield, tanking the attack as it hit. The explosion faded to reveal the shield flickering for a moment, but holding up nonetheless. Metal's optics widened as it detected...an even greater energy.

"Kaa….Mee...Haa...Mee…" Gohan chanted as he cupped his hands to his left as a blue sphere of energy formed between them, he thrust his hands forward with his hands together, "HA!"

"...Scanning technique…" Metal whispered, his optics glowing as the attack hit, causing the shield to crack for a few moments before it shattered just as the attack ended, "Technique...successfully copied…"

"Wow...That's a tough shield," Gohan noted before Metal Sonic cupped his claws together while shifting back, "?!"

"Kaa...Mee...Haa...Mee…" Metal Sonic spoke before thrusting his claws forward, releasing a red beam, "HA!"

'He copied it from just one look?!' Gohan thought, quickly bringing his arms up to block it just as the attack hit, sending him skidding back while leaving a gash on the street before he crashed into a large statue of Mr. Satan, shattering it upon impact, "GAH!" 'That...That wasn't Ki he used…'

"Transmitting backup memory," Metal Sonic stated, lowering his hands, "Bioscans active. Subject...still alive. Left arm fifty percent damaged. Right arm forty percent. Legs twenty-nine percent. Torso fifty-eight percent. Head twenty-two percent. Minimal fractures detected in fifty-seven bones. No breaks."

=Ha! And you were worried, Lien-Da!= Eggman laughed.

"Hmm..." Gohan stood up as he gripped his fist, "Then I guess...I can't hold back." he spoke, making everyone blink.

=H-hold back!?=

"If I used my full power...Well, like my Dad says; It wouldn't be any fun." Gohan raised his hand as his aura came back flaring even larger than before, his facial features grew sharper as a cocky grin formed on his face, "Well...come on. I thought you had the advantage? If you don't show me your full power...I'm going to break you..." he looked at Eggman for the last part, his eyes piercing through the screen and right at the real him.

=...M-Metal Sonic, don't hold anything back! I need to make my announcement at West City...which in turn will be renamed New Robotropolis!= Eggman shouted as the screen turned black.

"...Acknowledged," Metal replied, its optics narrowed as it glared at Gohan.

"West City? That…" Gohan began, his eyes wide for a moment before they narrowed, "Videl, go find your father and try and contact Bulma-san. If he's planning an attack this big, we need as much help as we can get."

"Hai!" she called out before flying off.

"Inter-!" Metal stopped as he was kicked, sending him skidding back and slamming into a building, he looked up as Gohan lowered his leg.

"You're not getting anywhere near her…" Gohan spoke out as he glared even harder, "Try it again...and I won't leave a single scrap of you left you worthless machine."

"Worthless?" Metal Sonic repeated before his optics narrowed before vanishing and forcing Gohan to spin around and barely block a kick from Metal Sonic aimed for where the middle of his back had been, "You will pay for those words…"

"We'll see." Gohan smirked.

---

=Sally, I am detecting hostile forces approaching from the north= Nicole spoke.

"Hostile f...oh no...please not now…" Sally groaned.

"Not now of all times…" Amy added with a facepalm.

"What? What's g-" Trunks began before Eggman's face appeared on a monitor.

=Greetings people of West City and New Mobotropolis. I am Dr. Eggman, the greatest Scientific genius in the world, and your intellectual superior! I…!=

"Excuse you?!" Bulma snapped at that, "You think you're smarter than me?! HAH! You are nothing but an opportunistic little man who should slink off back to his hole!"

"One question," Skye noted, looking out a window with some binoculars, "May I ask your opinion on what he has built?"

"Hm?" Bulma accepted the offered binoculars and looked at it, "? D...Did he actually make a Death Star from Star Wars?"

"I have no idea what that is, but judging by your tone of disbelief, I'd say that it's fictional," Skye noted, "And also judging from your question, I think the response would be 'Yes, but not intentionally.'"

"Oh god is Bulma on about that movie franchise that makes a mockery of space warfare again?" Vegeta asked, walking in.

"..." Bulma pointed out the window.

"...Woman, why did you make the Death Star again?" Vegeta deadpanned after looking at the distance.

"Ah...I didn't this time! And last time was a model!"

"Ah good. Then that means I can blow it up," Vegeta smiled, "That thing's gaudy moustache annoys me."

=G-gaudy?!= Eggman exclaimed =My moustache is brilliant, thank you very much! Besides...the entire city is surrounded by my machines! Oh and FYI ...I have immunity since your former king Naugus granted me amnesty and forgave me for my past crimes, so ha! You can't do anything w...=

"I kicked his ass out of here," Vegeta stated, "Your amnesty is worth shit."

=Huh?=

"He's gone!" Vegeta smirked, "And soon...I'll send you first to hell so you can welcome him the moment I send him there!"

"Also, your 'amnesty' never had any effect," Elias added as he walked over, "After many examinations and information gathering, Naugus had no right to be king. My father was a prisoner of war at the time when Mobotropolis was taken over by the original Ivo Robotnik, and Naugus forced the deal on him...when he wasn't king at the time. So ergo…" he held up the contract before tearing it in two, "Your amnesty was never approved to begin with."

=Uh-oh…=

"And after reviewing all you've done to these Mobians…" Vegeta spoke as he raised his hand up and gripped it into a fist, "I think it's safe to say...it will be better for everyone...if I killed you." he smirked.

=I tried to warn you…= Lien-Da sighed.

=Quiet you! I...wait. Nearly forgot that…= Eggman realized as he grinned =I still have one trick up my sleeve. Oh Tails Doll... play time~= he ordered with a dark grin just as the screen shut off.

"Da hell is that?!" Vegeta snapped in confusion and anger, "That's it! Imma kill them all! BIG BANG ATTACK!" he fired a giant blue energy ball at the ship...only for something to absorb the blast as the energy began to go into a different part of Capsule Corp, "?! The h-"

"AHH!" Trunks screamed as he and Haseo ran in, instantly hiding behind Vegeta.

"A...Akuma…" Haseo shuddered in fright.

"...Trunks, did you watch that Street Fighter anime again?" Vegeta asked.

"Let's play…"

The group tensed as they looked at the doorway the two came from, seeing Tails Doll sitting there, the gem glowing on its antennae. Though...it's eyes were glowing a demonic red as a toothy fanged smile began to grow from its muzzle, 'blood' beginning to spill from its eyes and its slowly growing claws.

"Okay...what...the…" Vegeta paused and looked at the kids, "Kids, cover your ears...I need to vent…" he spoke as they covered their ears, "What the fuck is that?!"

"That...looks like that doll Cream found wh…" Amy began before it dawned on her, "...Eggman was spying on us the entire time…"

"That's not explaining anything to me!" Vegeta formed a forcefield at the door, pushing it away, "Important information...how do I kill it!?"

"I d-"

"I...said….let's play~~~!" Tails doll's voice cackled before the doors were forced upon, the doll's form convulsing as it began to reform into something…something...nightmarish.

What had been a badly made doll of Tails was now a behemoth of a beast. Its body seemed more reptilian, almost like a brontosaurus in shape. Its body was a dark rusted orange in color with a silver underbelly. Its long neck seemed more like a massive set of vertical jaws littered with sharp teeth. Its tail was jagged and littered in layers upon layers of jagged metal spikes. It had no eyes nor mouth for its triangular head, just a massive set of jaws with the red gem inside of it only visible when it roared.

"...You were right on having my wife, yours, and Jules' go into the emergency bunker," Dr. Briefs noted as he looked at Skye.

"Not to poke a hole in that...but...won't one of them...want this one?" Vegeta pointed at Haseo, who was clinging to his leg as the strongest person in the room.

"Trunks, I need you to take Haseo there," Bulma spoke, "Your grandfather and I will join you two there shortly."

"Hai!" Trunks spoke as he reached and slowly removed Haseo's hands from Vegeta's leg before lifting him up and attaching him to his back to hold onto, "Easy now."

"H-h-h-hai…" Haseo whimpered, his tails sticking straight up.

"So again...how do I kill it!?" Vegeta snapped, forming a barrier to keep the monster pinned to a wall, "Cause it's really starting to make me want to vomit!"

"We don't know!" Amy shouted, using her hammer to repel back a tentacle with spikes on it, "We've never fought this thing before...and now I see why Eggman never sent it after us to begin with!"

"Oh that's just great...well...time to blast it...Final…" Vegeta held his hands out, "FLASH!"

*BOOM!*

"Vegeta no!"

"VEGETA YES!"

"It's our honeymoon all over again!" Bulma complained as there was now a giant hole in the wall.

"Did it work?" Amy asked as everyone stood up.

"Yup it's…" Vegeta began proudly.

"Let's play!"

"MOTHERFUCKER!" Vegeta snapped.

"Wow...and I thought Knuckles had anger issues," Amy spoke.

"I know right…" Knuckles agreed, "I mean hey!" he groaned as she laughed.

"Let's play~~~!" Tails Doll cackled as it reformed...with its mouth becoming longer with more rows of teeth as more and more spiked tentacles grew from its body.

"Makankosappo!" at that, a beam tore through the center of Tails Doll making it stagger back. However...this time it took a while to begin reforming, "Hmph, so like I figured. Tails...the rice cooker."

"I don't know why you want this, but alright," Tails replied as he handed Piccolo a rice cooker.

"Let me show you...how to handle immortals," Piccolo smirked while putting it down and opening it, he then held his arms out as a green wave of energy surrounded him and Tails Doll, "MAFUBA!" he roared as Tails Doll was swept up in the spiraling green wave around before being moved...and into the rice cooker before it closed itself. Piccolo walked over and slapped a paper seal on it before it flashed and that was it, "Nobody open this thing...ever."

"Wha…" Knuckles awed.

"What was that, Mr. Piccolo!?" Tails gawked.

"The Mafuba...or Evil Containment Wave," Piccolo explained, "It was the technique which sealed my father away for many hundreds of years. I know it because of Kami."

"Thank goodness you knew that technique," Sally noted.

---

"...What just happened?" Eggman asked, "Sonic wasn't there...and something happened that shouldn't have happened." his glasses fell off, showing a twitchy black and red eye.

"Oh...It's almost like this world is filled with powerful aliens that have fought alien overlords, androids, and demons…" Lien-Da spoke in a sarcastic tone.

"Sonic...not there...but things didn't go right…" Eggman muttered, "But he should be there...because if...and he...and…"

'...Oh my Chaos…' Lien-Da thought as her eyes widened, 'He needs to focus on Sonic, doesn't he? Or maybe…' "Sir, what if the world we fused with is filled with people that are embodiments of chaos?"

"?!" Eggman froze at that before slowly putting his glasses back on, "I see...A world where the strongest warriors are embodiments of chaos be it knowingly or unknowingly…of course! Sonic, an embodiment of it, when I interrupted his Chaos Control, caused him to connect to a world filled with those like him!"

'Phew...it worked.'

"Now then, back to what I was doing...having my machines take the city over! Besides…" Eggman paused as he sat in his seat, holding a controller, "Every genius knows to send a decoy to throw them off track, especially during a war! I mean, being their with people like that is just plain suicide!"

"Hmm…" Lien-Da turned to a screen showing Metal Sonic and Gohan fighting as Gohan was pushing the robot on the defensive.

---

"Where is all that bluster from before?" Gohan asked while punching Metal's barrier, sending him flying back and into a building, "I thought you wanted me to regret what I said." he smirked.

"Ha!" Metal Sonic roared, bursting out of the rubble as he held his claws up together, "Masenko!"

'He copied that, too?!' Gohan thought as he quickly dodged it...only to cry out in pain as the blast had split into seven smaller beams and hit him from behind, 'Soka...he's adapting the technique to his own uses...to make up for the weaker strength, he's changing it up t-' he grunted when Metal Sonic crashed into him, the two going through a few buildings before slamming him down onto the street, making him grunt out.

"Ka...me...ha...me…" Metal chanted, charging up his version of the attack again.

'Such an amazing machine...It should be something to help others...but instead all it does is harm them…' Gohan growled as the image of a tall figure covered in a green exoskeleton laughing at him appeared in his head, 'Why are such horrible things made…' "Why...why do people make things to hurt others?" he asked standing up, "Why...why...WHY?!-!-!-!-!" he roared, sending out a massive shockwave, "I won't let anyone be hurt by the creation of a madman...not ever again!"

"What? Power levels...rising still...possible truly infinite potential?" Metal asked

"Kamehame…" Gohan chanted shifting his stance before shooting his arms out, "HAAAA!-!-!-!" he roared as a beast like roar could be heard in his voice.

Metal fired back as the two beams clashed, only for his to begin to falter as Gohan's vastly overpowered and eclipsed Metal's in size and brightness. Metal grunted and formed his shield at the last moment before the blue beam impacted and swallowed his barrier. Metal grunted as his barrier cracked from the power behind Gohan's beam, Metal himself grunted as he began sparking from over exertion of his own energy reserves.

"S-Sending emergency backup data," Metal Sonic grunted out, his eyes flashing blue for a moment, "Data sent. Energy levels...zero…"

The black barrier shattered and the beam washed over him, breaking apart his body until nothing remained. In the distance, the massive blue beam pierced the darkened skies above, dispersing the clouds in a massive circle and exposed the sky above. Gohan huffed as he fell to his knees and powered down. He sighed as he fell forward only to blink as an arm caught him.

"Hehehe...I knew it...Gohan, you really are amazing," Goku spoke, "Don't worry. Sonic, Roll, and I got everyone we could out of town."

"Tousan…" he gasped as Goku helped him up.

"Hai," he tossed him a Senzu bean, "We got plenty more work to do, Gohan...this Eggman needs to be taught a lesson. Let's go bop him one."

"Yeah...but first, we need to deal with his forces attacking the city," Gohan stated, "And most likely, he has another set attacking West City."

"Right," Goku nodded as the two turned to fight...only to blink twice.

"Ahh...I love me a good 'bot thrashing," Sonic chuckled, lying on a large pile of scrapped robots.

"Oh, their blades had whetstones in them to keep them always sharp," Roll noted, looking at a sword fully taken apart as she sat around a massive pile of weapons the robots had, "Kaa-san will love having some of these. Tou-san might enjoy tinkering with these guns, too..."

"Aw...you could have left me some…" Goku pouted.

"Amazing...you guys did it so quickly." Gohan spoke, "Not to say Tousan wouldn't...but he'd probably test each type of robot to see which is more fun to punch…"

"The best ones to cut were the ones with a lance," Roll noted, holding up an orange and silver lance before squeezing the handle, causing the silver to turn red and glow, "Oh! It vibrates to generate heat to improve its piercing power."

"Then all that's left are those air ships…" Gohan spoke.

"Dibs!" Goku cheered, jumping into the sky, "Ka...me...ha...me...Haa!-!" He roared, unleashing his own blue beam which soared through the sky and pierced the ship which produced all the robots, Goku then grunted and swung his arms to the side...making his beam curve and hit the next ship...before it curved and hit the next one.

"...Well, that takes care of those forces," Sonic noted, watching them blow up, "Heh...too bad Eggman didn't see what Buu did to his bots when he found out the ones we fought near Satan's place were controlled by animals."

"He's like a big ol' teddy bear...which gets scary if provoked, " Roll added.

"Buu not like robots that hurt animals!" Buu shouted in the distance as a pink bolt of lightning hit the last ship...turning it into candy which began raining on the street, "Buu make you candy!"

"...Did he just fire a pink beam that turned a ship into candy?" Roll asked.

"Yeah...he does that," Gohan replied.

"...No one let Haseo know," Roll informed, "Or let him try to learn how to do it."

"Only Majin can learn it…" Goku pouted, implying he at one point asked to try and learn the move.

"...Still don't let him learn Buu can do that."

"Noted," Gohan nodded, "...Wait. What was that about robots being powered by animals?"

"Yeah...that's another thing Eggman does. He takes small animals and uses them to power his Badniks," Sonic stated.

"Badniks?" Gohan repeated with a deadpan, "He...He really calls them 'Badniks?'"

"Or he adds Egg to their names, like Egg-Pawn, Egg-Wyvern, Egg-Hornet…" Sonic listed.

"Eh...What a lame naming scheme…" Goku awed.

"Still, the fact he uses animals to power his machines further proves how dangerous he is," Gohan frowned, "Earlier, he had mentioned using the people for these Egg Grape things and implied he was going to use them as batteries."

"?!" Sonic's eyes widened at that, "...We need to get back to West City...now."

"Eh?" Roll pondered.

"Egg Grapes are containers clustered together to look like grapes. They do use those in them as batteries...but they work by painfully draining every single bit of energy from their bodies while filling them with toxins and even erasing their minds," Sonic informed, making the three tense, "My friend Knuckles lost all but twenty percent of his species thanks to them and our friend Charmy's mind was regressed to a six-year-old when he was stuck in one."

"...Hang on to me," Goku ordered as he put his fingers to his forehead.

---

A ding went off as a Metal Sonic near Lien-Da lifted its head, its red optics lighting up, "Metal Sonic Version 3.10 online. Backup memory loaded. Satan City occupation status: failure. New attacks obtained. Adaptable to both mechanical and organic forces."

"Perfect," Eggman grinned before frowning, "Still blast...would've liked to have two cities...but…" his grin grew back, "Once I take New West...er...take West Citiopolis, I can rebuild my empire from its ashes!"

"Incoming large energy attack," Metal spoke.

"Wh-" Eggman began before the entire room shook, "Gah! How?! I left a decoy in the city so…"

=Ahem!= Eggman tensed as he looked at a monitor, showing a smirking Bulma =Hello~=

"What?! HOW?!"

=You should really do better with making decoys= Bulma replied =Especially when you make a copycat of a good movie trilogy=

=I thought there were nine mo…= Skye's voice began.

=Trilogy= Bulma stressed, elbowing him off-screen with a twitchy eye, before clearing her throat =But yes...while you have a large number surrounding the city, you made one fatal mistake...aside from Sonic and his friends, along with my husband and Goku, along with his son Gohan...this planet has people that protect it, too...and I contacted those few the moment your attack on the city began=

"...And what makes you think…?"

=Let me finish, you sad pathetic egomaniacal piece of crap= Bulma cut him off with a frown =You underestimated me...you underestimated my friends...you underestimated Sonic's friends...now you're going to see what happens when you've angered both groups and they team up=

'Oh this is gonna suck…' Lien-Da thought.

---

"Kikohou!" a voice roared as a large energy blast blasted into a few of Eggman's large robots, destroying them as their parts were sent flying with a few birds flying out of the wreckage, "Tch...how disgusting…" a man with a bald head and a third eye in the center frowned.

"Why is it whenever there's a moment of peace, some new madman pops up and tries to take over the world?" another man with short spiky hair and a scar on his face asked, kicking back a few EggPawns, "So how goes things, Tien? How you dealing with these Mobian folk?"

"Eh, not really all that different from others on Earth, Yamcha," the tri-eyed man shrugged as he backhanded a katana-wielding EggPawn, "Some of them seem quite interesting in terms of fighting capability, like this Bee Mobian I saw being able to shrink to the size of an actual bee working with a crocodile that could fire musical notes, exploding bubblegum, and even breathe fire from his mouth, a ninja chameleon, a flying squirrel that actually flies and not just glide, and an armadillo with amazing strength as I was coming here. You?"

"They seem pretty fun," Yamcha replied, punting another EggPawn into ten of them, sending them scattering like bowling pins, "I saw some kids playing baseball and I'm wondering if I can make a team of humans and Mobians."

"That sounds great," Tien smiled as he swung his arm under that of a robot and spun it around before punching its chest in. He then pulled his hand out and held up a bird, "So they are powered...by tiny woodland critters...that's new." he sighed.

"Dude, that's messed up!" Yamcha spoke as he jabbed his hands rapidly into a robot before holding one hand up, holding a bunny, "Aw…" he put it down and let it hop away, "Go on, little guy. Hope you get home safely."

"Truth be told, they don't strike me as much different from the other animal-like folks," Tien added.

"They seem like much nicer versions of Oolong. More like Puar, but wearing shoes and gloves," Yamcha smirked as the two looked at larger robots, "That combo again?"

"Heh," Tien smirked, holding one finger up while charging energy, "Dodon…"

"Kame...hame…" Yamcha chanted.

"RAY/HA!" both fired a yellow and blue beam as both merged into a single orange blast which tore through the robots.

"KIENZAN!" a voice shouted as an energy disc sliced into the head of a large robot that tried to slame it's hammer down on the two, the head soon falling off as it fell over.

"Ahh, Krillin. Perfect timing," Yamcha noted as a short man with no nose and black hair spiked to the side in a much less crazy and human way in a policeman's uniform hopped between the two.

"Yeah, well...I was enjoying a day off with my wife and daughter when I got the call about a mad scientist attacking the city," he admitted before looking at the critters leaving, "...Uh…"

"Said mad scientist uses tiny animals as batteries for his robots," Yamcha replied, "We've been talking about these Mobians and we both like 'em so far. You?"

"Oh well, they seem like a perfectly nice bunch," he smiled, "A lot of them have been really understanding of how things work for us and I've helped them find some alternatives to their sense of style. Turns out the no pants thing is a weird condition for a lot of them."

"Huh...go figure," Yamcha nodded.

"I just suggested they wear super baggy shirts and jackets," Krillin smiled, "That look of: 'Oh wow that's so simple' is kinda priceless."

"Heads up," Tien spoke just as more EggPawns and large robots landed near them, "We got more to deal with…" he looked at them, "I don't sense any living creatures in the large ones, so those we can go all out on. The smaller ones have living things in them acting as batteries."

"Oh, just our luck...We got a whacky wannabe Dr. Gero," Krillin sighed, "But still, I've been meaning to get a good workout. Work has been hectic."

"Yeah, with the season ending, I could use some fun, too," Yamcha smirked.

"I have been meaning to test my skills for a while," Tien smirked as he began unbuttoning his shirt and tossed it aside.

"Just like the good old days, huh?" Krillin smirked.

"My only regret is I bet Goku is keeping all the strong guys to himself," Tien smirked.

"That's Goku for you!" Yamcha smiled.

"We can't fall behind now...we got these new Mobian neighbors to look out for," Krillin smirked, "Let's show 'em they can trust us."

"Agreed," the two nodded before the three charged.

---

"Glad to see…" Elias paused, using a sword to cut into some EggPawns and release the animals stuck within, "You haven't rusted in your abilities, Sally."

"I can say the same to you," Sally countered, a pair of energy blades coming from the rings on her wrist as she used them to jab into a few robots, making sure not to hit the animals within, "Also, a plus on not being Robian anymore? These. They just feel right."

'Considering you had them built in you as a Robian, I'm not surprised,' Elias thought and wisely avoided saying aloud, dodging an EggPawns club before slicing it down the middle, causing it to split apart as the cat inside of it fell out.

"Heh!" Knuckles grunted, punching an EggPawn sending it flying into another, "I do enjoy this part." he swung and began punching apart robots, letting the animals trapped within crawl out of the holes he punched in them. He leaned back and let one swing over his head before he spun around and landed an uppercut as his fist was covered in fire.

"So this is how Eggman fights?" Piccolo asked, his arms crossed as he opted to kick all the robots that came near him. He flipped up and landed a stomp to another robot, "Hmph...it's almost too easy." he sighed as he swung a kick to a robot sneaking up on Tails, "Move around more. Take in all views and directions."

"Got it!" Tails nodded, ducking under a swing from an EggPawn as he used his tails to knock it over, quickly turning while using them to knock a few EggPawns over.

Piccolo and Tails both jumped into the air and held their hands out as they began blasting, blanketing the area in smoke as they took down many of the robotic enemies in the process. Piccolo landed on one, cracking it open as he held his arm out to catch Tails.

"You were close that time. A little more training and you'll be able to fly without your tails," Piccolo smirked.

"Understood, mast-I mean...Mr. Piccolo," Tails nodded while sheepishly rubbing the back of his head, "Sorry. Just...feel like calling you master at times since you're training me."

"I'm not exactly a master...but I just like making sure kids are not in danger," he admitted, "Also...you are by far the nicest kid I've known. Save maybe one more who used to be a kid."

"I've had good people and friends to help me out," Tails smiled.

---

"Hmph...Shame Omega isn't here…" Shadow scoffed, kicking the head of an EggPawn off as a small owl flew out of it, "He'd be enjoying this right now."

"The hell's an Omega?" Vegeta asked.

"Former Robot of Eggman's...hated the guy so me and Rouge-a teammate of ours-repurposed that into attacking him and his army of robots."

"Oh god, then he's now exactly like Gero…" Vegeta groaned as he tapped the head of a robot, making it crack in two, he then pointed his finger and swung it around as he fired a beam from the tip like a laser cutting a good chunk of the robots in half, "Now all he needs to do is make a super android that looks ugly as hell...before literally becoming a pain in everyone's necks…" he looked at Shadow's face, "Imma fucking kill him…"

"Not before I do…" Shadow argued.

"I called dibs!"

"No...I did!"

=EXTERMI-!=

"SHUT UP!" both held their hands out unleashing red and blue beams which vaporized the giant robot leaving only its legs.

"Tch...we'll finish this up later," Vegeta frowned, "For now...let's just vent on these machines."

"Agreed," Shadow nodded.

The robots looked at them...before panicking and running.

"GET BACK HERE!" they roared as the entire street exploded.

---

"Oh Vegeta…" Bulma sighed as they peeked out of the panic shelter and watched explosions they knew were from the people on their side.

"Papa is having fun…" Trunks pouted, "Why can't I help? I'm a Super Saiyan, too!"

"You are helping," Skye noted.

"Huh?"

"By being here, you're helping by intimidation," Skye informed, "Your father is counting on you to be the last resort. In other words…" he grinned, "You're the secret weapon."

"Heh! Of course I am!" Trunks smirked in agreement.

"Oh you're good," Bulma complimented, "As long as nothing riles Trunks up, he should be…"

"Ah Trunks!" Goten cheered as he dropped a giant robot, making everyone flinch due to how it shook the ground, "What are you doing!? These robots are super easy!"

"..." Skye slowly turned his head to Bulma, "D...Did you really just tempt Murphy?"

"Ugh…" Bulma realized as Trunks gawked.

"I've already taken out like a hundred!" Goten laughed, "Tousan says it's okay as long as I only hit the big ones; the little ones have animals inside."

"Animals?" Dr. Briefs repeated, pausing from looking over Jules with Charles.

"...Dad no…" Bulma began.

"Trunks, if you rescue any animals, please bring them to me. And if you happen to see this Eggman fellow...bean him on the head once for me."

"I'll beat your score, Goten!" Trunks declared as he bolted out.

"I already got a head start!" Goten smirked.

"Oh yeah? Watch me," Trunks smirked as the two stated at one another as the air around them vibrated from their aura.

"...Those two are easily influenced, aren't they?" Bernadette asked.

"They're both half Saiyan…" Bulma sighed, "Saiyans are incredibly hot blooded and rivalries are what they live for…" she groaned, "No matter how hard we try these two just can't stop once they get riled up like their dads…"

"Ready...set...GO!" both flashed Super Saiyan and flew off as more explosions could be heard.

"Also they can do that…" Bulma sighed, "Well at least they didn't fuse…"

"...Ano…" Aphrodite began.

"Yes, fusion is a thing," Bulma informed, "It's this technique Goku taught them," she explained, "By doing this silly little dance, two people can fuse into one new person for thirty minutes. I thought it was cute at first...till their fusion form turns out to only inherit the worst traits of any child..."

"...Well…" Skye began as he placed an arm around Aphrodite, "Then this fusion of those two haven't met my wife yet."

"Dear, that responsibility goes to their mothers," Aphrodite informed, "And as a mother, I would gladly offer a technique I learned that terrifies anyone who's forgotten their manners to a fellow mother."

"Oh, I don't like the sound of that," Chuck whispered.

"Me neither, especially if it works on the parents of the mother," Mr. Briefs quietly agreed.

"I would enjoy that," Bulma smiled.

---

"Ha!" Goku shouted, swinging his hand out as he unleashed a ki blast which made several robots just shatter.

"Hah!" Gohan thrust his palm out as a blast of air tore through several robots.

"Okay...that is cool." Sonic noted, kicking a robot and tearing it apart.

"You know with how skilled you are Sonic, I bet you could learn ki control no problem," Gohan spoke, punching a robot ripping it in half.

"You mean how you guys fly and stuff?" Sonic asked, flipping back and kicking a robot's head in.

"Yeah! Since you don't like water...you can just fly over it now!" Goku spoke as he swung and punched a robot before swinging around and kicking away another.

"...Oh, I like that," Sonic grinned before a robot attempted to attack him from behind only for a lance to impale its head, the red turning to silver as it collapsed.

"It's fun using their own tools against them," Roll giggled, releasing the lance before picking up the gun the robot had dropped before spinning around and getting several shots off on more robots to let the small animals in them get out, "Honestly, why use animals as batteries?"

"That's a good point…" Goku muttered.

"Probably just to emphasize that he's evil?" Gohan asked, "But even still, his forces are huge. It'll take a…" he paused as a large explosion cleared the path in front of them.

"MINE!" two voices shouted, "Oh like hell it is! That was totally my blast!"

"Vegeta!" Goku smiled.

"That sounds like Shadow..." Sonic sighed as the two walked out of a hole they blasted in a building.

"Like hell that was your spears! My Galick Gun totally did more damage!" Vegeta snapped.

"Keep telling yourself that," Shadow replied.

"What was that?" Vegeta growled.

"Hey, Geets!" Goku greeted.

"Hey, Shad!" Sonic waved.

"Kakarot/Sonic, don't call me that!" the two barked before glaring at one another.

"Hehe...Still the same old grump!" Goku laughed.

"Screw you! I'm not that much older than you, Kakarot," Vegeta replied, glaring up at the slightly taller Goku.

"We aren't friends either, Sonic. Most times, these messes are your fault," Shadow talked to Sonic.

"Oh come on. It's been weeks since we last talked. How 'bout a fun race later?" Sonic offered.

"Same here, Vegeta. We haven't sparred in months!" Goku smiled.

"Hmm…" both crossed their arms, seemingly pacified with that for the moment.

The entire time, Roll watched the two pairs and couldn't help but feel like it was two versions of the same person speaking on each side of this rivalry standoff. It was honestly amazing how similar both Saiyans were to the Hedgehogs beside them. She wanted to comment on it, too...but something told her g thrumpy duo would not take kindly to this being pointed out. A robot nearby, its lower half torn from its upper half, shakingly raised its gun and pulled the trigger. Roll yelped as Sonic tackled into her, ending with them landing a few meters away from where she had been. Several smoking blue quills fell to the ground where she had been standing as Sonic quickly patted at the back quill that had been grazed.

"God damn scrap pile…" Vegeta grumbled, aiming his finger as he blasted the robot making it explode violently like fireworks, "Heh...Metallic fireworks."

"Based on the angle of the shot. It was going for a killing blow," Shadow noted, Roll's eyes widening on hearing that.

"I couldn't sense it…" Gohan spoke, "That's on me."

"They are machines, Gohan...nothing to sense. Just have to pulverise them to total scrap," Vegeta explained.

"See? Everyone makes mistakes," Goku smiled.

"Don't agree with me, dumbass," Vegeta scoffed.

"Heh-heh. These two are pretty funny to watch. Right, Roll?" Sonic asked with a chuckle, earning no response, "...Uh...Roll?" he looked at the Hedgefox, her cheeks red, "You okay?"

"I...I'm s...sorry," Roll apologized, sweating a little.

"Sorry? What f…" Sonic was cut off in mid-sentence by her lips meeting his, "?!"

"Ah!" Gohan panicked, covering his eyes while blushing.

"Can you be horny teenagers some other time?" Vegeta sighed as he and Shadow turned away.

"Huh? What do you mean, Vegeta? Th…" Goku began to ask when Roll began to glow a soft yellow, "Huh?"

The yellow aura lightly pressed on Sonic before a blue one appeared on the hedgehog. The two seemed to mingle for a moment before moving away, bits of their colors staying on the other. They condensed, gathering over their chests before turning into strings. They encircled the two before tying together into a knot before fading away. Roll stopped the kiss, her cheeks now pink, while she found her shoes now very interesting.

"Uh…" Sonic blinked, his brain shut down.

"Sonic-san?" Gohan asked as Sonic fell over, "Sonic-san!?" he panicked.

"What did he do now?" Shadow sighed as he turned back around to see the hedgehog collapsed in Gohan's arms, "...Who knocked him out?"

"Oh, Roll kissed him," Gohan replied, "Though what happened while that kiss happened was weird."

"Kiss?" Goku tilted his head.

"Bleh…" two new voices made everyone turn to see Goten and Trunks who were watching the whole thing, "Ick...ew…" they went on, making poor Roll even more embarrassed as she tried to hide behind her tail.

"Trunks! I thought I told you to guard your mother!" Vegeta scolded.

"But Goten said he was blowing up more robots than me, then Grandpa had me go rescue the animals the smaller robots had in them and to bean Eggman when I see him!"

"Did you beat his score?" Vegeta asked.

"Yes…"

"Then go back to your mother!" Vegeta snapped.

"Yes sir!" Trunks yelped.

"Hey, dad, what was with the glowy stuff turning into strings?" Goten asked.

"I don't know exactly...but now Sonic and Roll's Ki are linked," Goku explained, earning everyone's attention, "What? ...You didn't get that?"

"..." Vegeta closed his eyes, "...There's some of her Ki mixing with his in him and vice-versa for her."

"What did you do?" Shadow demanded the Hedgefox.

"It's a genetic thing on my mother's side..." Roll replied, still hiding her face in her tail before everyone moved out of the way of laser shots.

"We'll talk about it later," Gohan spoke, "For now, let's keep chipping at Eggman's forces."

"Trunks, Goten, take the lovebirds back to Capsule Corp." Vegeta ordered.

"Eh…" the two complained.

"MMM!" Vegeta growled, making them jump.

"Yes, sir/dad!" both yelped, grabbing Roll and Sonic before flying off.

"And make sure to get there before Goten, Trunks!" Vegeta barked.

"Hehehe…" Goku smirked as the four walked forward.

"I can't sense any animals in this next wave," Gohan spoke.

"So we can cut loose." Shadow smiled, reaching for his limiter rings.

"Hai," Gohan smirked.

With that, three Golden Lights and one Red Light lit up the street before a powerful explosion which went for miles cleared away the robots.

---

"There you boys are…" Bulma sighed as Goten and Trunks returned before Goten gently put down Roll...while Trunks just dropped Sonic on the ground.

"Ah! Sonic!" Bernadette gasped, moving over to look him over, "What happened?"

"A-Ano…" Roll mumbled.

"Looks like he dodged a laser shot," Bulma noted, seeing the burn graze on one of his back spines.

"Also, this Nee-san smooched him," Trunks blurted, pointing at Roll.

"...Roll, was that shot aimed at you that he took?" Aphrodite asked, making Roll lower her tail.

"H-Hai…" Roll replied, "I didn't even see it coming for me."

"It's okay," Goten patted her head, "Sonic saved you, so you kissed him as thank you, right?"

"Oh, it's more than that," Aphrodite noted before turning to Bernadette, "Really glad we've been getting along since we'll be seeing each other more often."

"Huh?" Sonic's mother tilted her head as Bulma began thinking about it before gasping as she realized what Aphrodite meant.

"...What was your family's name again?" Chuck asked.

"Sakurai," Aphrodite replied, making Chuck facepalm.

"Only Sonny would become married through a soul bond by saving a life," Chuck sighed.

"...Wait. My baby boy's married?!" Bernadette exclaimed.

"This is one of those clan rule things, isn't it, Skye?" Bulma asked, "Like something like if a guy walks in on her while she's naked or something?"

"No, that basically results in embarrassment for both parties and awkwardness," Skye noted, "But this is more or less a clan law and a genetic thing in female Sakurai."

"Hmm...and I thought the thing where Saiyans get stronger each time they recover from near death was weird…" Bulma muttered, earning a few stares, "Yeah, it's a thing...Yes, Vegeta had the stupid idea to exploit it once…"

"The one time you know of…" Mr. Briefs muttered.

"What was that, dad?" Bulma asked.

"I mean, yes, just one time!" he laughed sheepishly.

=Chuck…= Jules began.

"Well, you remember that month I was away in Dragon Kingdom with mom?" Chuck asked.

=Yeah…=

"We stayed with a friend of hers, Violet Sakurai," Chuck explained, "I learned a lot of things while I was there."

"Violet Sakurai? Oh, now I recognize you! I thought your eyebrows were familiar," Aphrodite giggled.

"Long story short, the women of the Sakurai clan have a gene in them they called the 'Ai Gene.' When someone of the opposite gender saves them, this gene triggers and they basically need to kiss their rescuer," Chuck informed.

"More than that, it connects the souls of the two and basically sets up a set distance they two need to stay together," Skye noted, "The distance extends over time, but breaking that distance is not a good idea."

"Why?"

"If they go past that distance, the Ai Gene will send out a signal of sorts to make her body attack itself," Skye stated, making everyone look at him with wide eyes.

"No offense, but that does sound like kind of a drawback if the person they kiss turns out to be kind of an ass," Bulma spoke simply, understanding and digesting the information really well.

"For some reason, it doesn't trigger for those with dark hearts," Aphrodite noted, "Nor will it trigger if the danger was set up by the one who wanted to rescue the female Sakurai."

"I see...Wait, what if the Sakurai set up the danger?" Bulma asked out of pure interest for information's sake.

"..." Aphrodite blinked several times before rubbing her chin, "I...honestly have no idea. It's never been done before."

"Had to ask," Bulma explained, "Scientists...want to know everything...sorry for making it weird. I mean, you met my husband...I'm kind of the only doctor on earth that knows how his body actually works. Still not sure why his tail stopped growing back..."

"A tail?" Skye asked.

"Can we please focus on the subject and not move on to another?" Bernadette pleaded.

"Hai, hai, hai," Aphrodite assured, moving over to the worried blue hedgehog, "Your son did a selfless act in saving my daughter for no reason but to save a life. Because of that, a gene in my family triggered in my daughter that caused your son and my daughter to share their souls. My family calls it the 'Bond.' In a sense, it means they're engaged and we both have a guarantee for the end goal of any mother: grandbabies to spoil."

"?! ...That...does sound nice..."

=I'd feel better about it if we weren't planning on another kid when I get cured= Jules muttered to Mr. Briefs.

"Considering you've spent nearly your son's entire life as a robot, I'm not surprised you'd be repressed," Mr. Brief nodded.

"Dad…" Bulma overheard.

"Oh come on...This is men talk…"

"Dad!"

"Kids…" he sighed.

=I know, right?=

"Jules, this is serious!"

=Sorry, dear…= Jules gulped.

"...So if we get kissed by a girl, we'll get married?" Trunks whispered to Goten and Haseo.

"Ick," Goten stuck his tongue out.

"Tou-san saved Kaa-chan and got kissed. At least, that's what Kaa-chan says," Haseo noted.

"So if you save a girl...she kisses you...and then you marry her?" Goten muttered.

"Is that what Papa did?" Trunks blinked.

---

"You get the feeling Sonic just did something stupid?" Sally asked.

"You sound like he hasn't before," Elias pointed out.

"Sonic...Is he a guy who likes fighting impossible odds and ends up having trouble finding him?" Krillin asked.

"Yep," the two royal siblings replied.

"Sounds a lot like Goku," Yamcha noted with a chuckle.

"Hmm...two of those kind of people. I worry what new dangers will follow them," Tien sighed.

"Knowing Goku...he'll love the fight!" Krillin laughed.

"Same with Sonic," Sally shook her head.

---

"...I feel Sonic's Ki has changed," Piccolo noted.

"Changed?" Tails asked.

"It's like his Ki has grown...but also changed. Like if it merged with that of another," Piccolo explained.

"Could he have done that fusion thing?" Knuckles asked.

"No...this is different, but I can sense another Ki that feels like his now. I think he's somehow linked his Ki with another persons," Piccolo explained his theory.

"Like...a Soul bond," Knuckles noted.

"Ah…" Tails realized what that implied.

"...AH!" Knuckles realized a few moments later.

"What are you guys screaming about?" Amy asked as she walked over.

"AHH!" Tails and Knuckles screamed, running away from her.

"...Was it something I said?" Amy asked, looking at the Namekian.

"Not sure…" Piccolo shrugged, "I never understand this reaction from Earthlings anyway."

---

"What do you mean we're out of robots?!" Eggman gawked.

"We...are...out...of...ROBOTS!" Lien-Da snapped at him, "These beings are like Shadow...shooting energy is normal for them! We've run out of all the parts needed to build them on the ship!"

"This...this...this is insane!" Eggman went on, "What kind of threats molded these monsters?"

"Alien overlord...Super fighting Android bugmen...Demons…" Lien-Da repeated what she'd been saying all day once more.

"Errrr…" Eggman growled, "Retreat! You may have won this time, but I'll be back! With more Robots!"

"Wow really!?" Goku spoke as he flashed into the room.

"GAH!" Eggman yelped, nearly falling over and Lien-Da tensed.

"So you're Eggman...hahaha! I get it! It's 'cause you look like an Egg!" Goku laughed happily like a child, "I'm Son Goku, strongest fighter, Super Saiyan, and I...am here to bop you on the nose." he smiled before becoming transparent before lasers went through him.

"...Th….that's a new one…" Eggman blinked.

"So you can make like WAY Stronger guys, right?!" Goku smiled, "Guys that are hard to fight and won't be easy, right?" he asked with wide sparkling eyes, "Like the Androids or Cell!"

'Androids? Cell? Hoo, I think I have research to perform later,' Eggman thought, "But of course. Those you've battled before will be nothing compared to what I will eventually make."

"Really?!" Goku smiled, "Alright!" he cheered, "I can't wait to fight them...and then break 'em!" he smiled, "It's good to know you can be good for something, otherwise I would have had to let Vegeta blow you to Other World."

"Say wha…" Eggman blinked.

"Yeah, I told him to wait and see if you can give us a new challenge. Now that I know you can, he doesn't need to kill you!" Goku smiled.

"K-kill?!"

"Uh well...yeah...you're evil," Goku spoke simply as if he didn't just inadvertently threaten Eggman's life, "Unless you become good, then you can be our friend!"

"Does...Does that happen a lot?" Lien-Da asked.

"Yep. Piccolo used to be the evil Demon King's son out to kill me and take over the world. And Vegeta used to be a planet killing evil doer, but now...they are my best friends."

"Right…" Lien-Da noted, "And you got on here how?"

"Oh, I felt for his Ki and used Instant Transmission," Goku replied.

"Which is...?"

"Teleportation that's...well...instant," Goku smiled, "I can go...pretty much anywhere in the Galaxy...I can even go to other planes of reality to like heaven and hell. I can more or less find you anywhere in the universe."

"Ah…" Eggman gawked, "A-anywhere…?"

"Yep. I once went from Earth to Namek...which are on total opposite ends of the universe," Goku explained, holding his arms out for emphasis like a child.

"So...we...can't hide from you…?" Lien-Da asked.

"No, not really." Goku shook his head, "Unless you learn to hide your Ki...but that's a really hard trick and you guys don't look like martial artists…Well, he doesn't. You maybe."

"And Ki is…?" Lien-Da asked.

"Ki is the physical energy and embodiment of one's life force. It is that mystic energy that is derived from the body and the mind. By mastering it, one's truest potential can be attained. In layman's terms, it's the energy within one's own body obtained from training and enlightenment," Goku explained, earning stares from how...smart he sounded there, "It also lets you fly and shoot lasers."

'...and considering Metal Sonic fought someone similar to him and was capable of copying two of his attacks, it's possible Ki is similar to Chaos Energy,' Lien-Da thought, "And I think that's our cue to leave."

"Okay!" Goku smiled, "Oh, but first..." he turned to Eggman and raised his arm back before punching Eggman square in the face, sending him flying through several walls, "Bopped him good!"

"...Screw it. He'll yell at me regardless," Lien-Da muttered, tapping something on a nearby console as some doors opened, revealing a few robotic echidnas similar to knuckles, "Metal Knuckles bots, deal with him."

"Eee! I knew he had m-" Goku began before all four Metal Knuckles tackled into him, sending him out of the room.

"...It's like he's a giant battle happy manchild version of Sonic…" Lien-Da muttered as she followed after Eggman, Metal Sonic following her, 'Still...least we got something to study on…"

"Affirmative."

---

"...Why do I feel Kakarot let the fat man get away?" Vegeta pondered with a frown

"Because he's a giant battle happy manchild version of Sonic," Shadow huffed, "Final count?"

"287."

"Heh. 289."

"Bullshit!"

"Say what you want." Shadow smirked.

"Grr…" Vegeta growled before looking at the ship as it shook and sparked, "Hmph...I bet Kakarot is keeping the only strong ones all to himself again."

"Hn…"

"I wouldn't be surprised if he had a back-up of that Metal Sonic ready," Gohan spoke.

"Metal Son...ugh. Again?" Shadow groaned before noticing Vegeta's raised eyebrow, "Metal Sonic is one of-and possibly the only-working and deadly machine Eggman has ever created to combat Sonic and others."

"Deadly is right," Gohan added, "It was able to copy both my Masenko and Kamehameha."

"What?" Vegeta asked before an explosion went off on the side of the egg-shaped Death Star with Eggman's mustache...followed by a whooping laugh as several figures shot out of it as the flying ship began to leave, "And there's Kakarot."

"Hey, he made more of your Metal copy, Knuckles," Tails noted, looking out with a pair of binoculars.

"What's with him and metal clones?" Knuckles mumbled.

"Ha!" Goku cheered as he weaved around punches and struck back sending them back, "This is much better!"

"Damn it, Kakarot! Learn to share!" Vegeta snapped.

"I count five," Shadow noted.

"What...no, but...these are strong…" Goku complained as he overheard them.

"I called dibs!" Vegeta shouted, rushing over and kicking Goku sending him flying into a building, "All I need is to destroy three and I'll win."

"Is this happening?" Amy asked Piccolo.

"Saiyans...are idiots." Piccolo sighed, "They are only good for one thing…" he looked up as Vegeta fired two puprle beams obliterating two robots that attacked from his sides, "Destroying everything in their path.

"One more," Vegeta smirked before all three exploded, "Gh!?"

"And with that, I have 292," Shadow stated, sitting on a pile of rubble before Goku's head poked out of it beside him.

"Ah you guys ruined all the fun...it's no fun if you go all out from the start…" Goku complained.

"Hmph. We went all out to keep a fair count," Shadow replied as Vegeta glared at the hedgehog.

"This isn't over, you," Vegeta seethed.

"Hmph." Shadow smirked.

"Aw...you guys are becoming friends," Goku smiled.

"Shut your hole, Kakarot," both replied.

"Vegeta made a friend...I'm not sure if that's good or bad." Piccolo sighed.

---

"Huh...A lot less damage than I expected," Bulma spoke as they looked at the collateral damage, "I should be able to fix this over the weekend."

"How rich are you Bulma?" Sally asked.

"I'm half sure I own the economy…" Bulma sighed in a sarcastic manner to imply it's not her fault she's used to this or can repair it; it just is what it is.

"I'm back!" Goku smiled, teleporting in with the last two Dragon Balls in his arm.

"Finally...Now we can see if Shenron can fix any of this." Bulma sighed.

"Oh, uh, Bulma?" Goku spoke up...before holding up bits of what had been the Dragon Radar, "When I was getting the last one, I dropped it and stepped on it when I jumped down from where it had been."

"That's alright, Goku. I have more." Bulma sighed.

"So how does this work?" Tails asked as Goku put the seven together in the middle of the backyard of the building.

"First, we put 'em down like so...and then," Goku held his arms up, "We summon the Eternal dragon...SHENRON!" he shouted as the balls flashed with bright golden light.

The sky above began to darken. It had been late in the afternoon...but now it was dark as midnight. A golden light shined from the seven Dragon Balls before it shot into the sky where it began to bend and curve. The light curved and looped around the entire city and into the sky several times before aiming down at everyone. It stopped as a flash blinded them all for a second. As soon as they could see, many of the Mobians all gasped at the giant green eastern dragon staring down at them with solid crimson eyes. It growled and eyed them over...seeming to sigh as it recognized Goku and Bulma as well as their friends.

"I am the Eternal Dragon...state your wish so I may grant it…" It spoke slowly in a deep booming voice.

"Shenron, can you bring the worlds back to their original state?" Bulma asked.

"...I cannot," Shenron replied, "The cause of this fusion has done it on a level far beyond my power. Even if Porunga assisted in it, the wish cannot be granted. You have three wishes remaining."

"So...we are stuck like this," Sally spoke.

"I was afraid of that..." Bulma admitted, "But that means we'll just have to adapt and change. Besides, I think this could be...good. Now we have more people to help us, both in fighting and in the labs."

"Well, I sure as heck don't mind it," Mr. Briefs smiled between Chuck and Skye, "I've made some great new friends!"

"...Ano...Shenron-sama?" Roll spoke up, earning the dragon's attention, "Are...Are you really able to revive those that have fallen?"

"Yes. I can revive those who did not die of natural causes, but only once per soul," Shenron replied politely responding to her respect.

Roll nodded, "Shenron-sama, I ask of you to grant this wish: please revive my family's clan and those who were victims of Dr. Eggman's Egg Grapes Sonic-san told us of."

"Your clan?" Tails repeated.

"It can be done, but such a wish will cost the power of two wishes...and take time to complete." Shenron explained, "However, I can not bring them all back to the same location. Those of your clan shall be brought here...while those of the Egg Grape Incident shall be reunited with their people where they have landed in this dimension."

"Thank you, Shenron-dono," Roll thanked, bowing.

"You now have One wish remaining…" Shenron nodded simply.

"That was real nice of you, Roll," Goku smiled, "I wonder where your clan will wind up…"

---

"Hmmm…" Chi-Chi hummed as she did some laundry only to yelp when her yard and a good portion of the surrounding area was filled with confused and shocked fox Mobians, "I think the Shenron-sama had something to do with this…"

---

"Well...we got one wish left," Bulma spoke as she looked at the Mobians, "Any of you guys got a wish?"

"...I got one," Sonic chuckled, "How about a big feast, big enough for the entire conjoined city?"

"What?" Knuckles deadpanned.

"What? I'm starving. Some Chili-Dogs sound delicious right about now."

"Oh, that sounds yummy," Goku agreed.

"Wait, Sonic…" Tails began.

"Wish Granted," Shenron spoke, making everyone gawk and look at him as his eyes flashed. At that, tables filled with food of every kind filled the yard and began appearing all over the city anywhere groups of people gathered, "Your wishes have been granted…" with that, he faded into the blinding light as the Dragon Balls flew up into the sky.

"Wait!" Goku yelped as he flew up; he swung his hand and snatched the Four Star ball just before the Dragon Balls all dispersed and shot through the sky across the globe, "Phew...I got it!"

"Well, not my first pick...but I guess a little celebration would be nice after how...hectic things have been," Bulma sighed.

"Agreed, Madam," Elias nodded.

"Sonic, we could've used that last one for something like giving Nicole a body and not keep her waiting for an android one," Tails noted.

"I guess that's right!" Sonic laughed.

=I don't mind waiting= Nicole spoke as Bulma held her up =It will give me time to work with Bulma and see what she has in mind=

"I'll admit it did sound easier...but hey! Don't doubt my work," Bulma huffed proudly, "I'll make Nicole an even better body then anything Shenron could have magic'd up."

"She's quite proud of her abilities, isn't she?" Chuck asked.

"Oh like you wouldn't believe," Mr. Briefs chuckled, "But she has mellowed out since she was little."

"Dad!" Bulma whined.

"Oh, so very true. Roll was a little devil herself as a little tyke. I've actually mentally repressed the entire time she was a two-year-old," Skye noted.

"Tou-san~!" Roll whined.

"Oh tell me about it...Bulma was a little fiend as a kid...She once stole our family friend Jaco's space ship for a joy ride...when she was five!" Dr. Briefs laughed.

"Goku, you just had to teleport everyone from your house to here," Bulma growled.

"Hm?" Goku pondered, looking up from a table with his cheeks puffed up from all the food shoved into his mouth, Sonic beside him with chili trying to leak from his stuffed lips.

"Nevermind…" Bulma sighed, "Still I kinda like this new change. We have more friends to help when Goku screws things up."

"Hey!" Goku complained.

"Well am I wrong?" Bulma smiled.

"Mmm…"

"True...and we do have more friends to help us out," Sally added, "And yet...Eggman is still out there with the Dark Egg Legion of his…"

"Actually, from what I overheard while I was fighting those robot Knuckleses, he changed them to the Egg Army," Goku spoke, pausing from shoveling down his food.

"That's just a bad name…." Sonic spoke as he paused as well, "I think his naming sense is getting worse."

"Well with the Saiyans on our side...things will be easy," Shadow spoke, "They didn't even transform for more than a moment to finish off Eggman's forces."

"That is true...The folks on this world are really strong," Amy spoke.

"We've all been training for years to get this good," Krillin spoke, "Goku...just always surpassed us. It made sense when we learned he was an alien of a warrior race that grows stronger when they heal up from near death things."

"Wow," Sonic noted.

"Sugoi! Strawberries!" Roll and Aphrodite beamed, quickly getting as much as they could at once.

"Well maybe Goku and the others can help train you guys," Bulma offered.

"Way ahead of you," Piccolo spoke sitting with Gohan and Tails.

"Mr. Piccolo is right. If you train with us, you can learn to do all the amazing things we can," Gohan spoke, putting down his 16th plate of food, "You're all already really strong fighters on your own, so imagine how much stronger you can become if you train."

"You don't have much room to talk, Gohan," Piccolo smiled, "You've fallen behind since starting high school, haven't you?"

"Gh!?"

"And that girl is distracting you as well."

"W-wh-Wha...Videl-san isn't a distraction!" Gohan panicked.

"We'll need to whip you back into shape," Piccolo smiled, "And don't worry, you can bring your girlfriend so she can train, too." he mused, drinking just water.

"Oh he has it bad," Aphrodite giggled, sitting by Bernadette as they watched Gohan gawk and stammer in denial.

"It's...it's not like that we...we just go to school...we train together...we fight bad guys together…"

"You go to the movies...you hold hands…" Goten added, sitting next to Goku.

"And we saw her kiss you," Trunks added, "...Wait a second. Are you two married since she kissed you like Roll is with Sonic?"

"Wh-WHAT!?" Gohan panicked, falling out of his seat, "We're...we're not...I mean...we didn't...I...I…"

"Sonic's what?!" Sally and Amy gawked.

"And I am outta here," Sonic gulped.

"You mean 'we are out of here,'" Roll corrected before both ran off.

"Sonic, you get back here and explain!" Amy barked, chasing after with her hammer out.

"Hmm?" Goku tilted his head, still confused, before shrugging and eating a Chili-Dog, "Hoo...That's a little spicy. Jalapenos?"

"Hmph...damn brat should just take all of them as his partners and be done with it," Vegeta blurted.

"Vegeta!" Bulma complained.

"What? A lot of us were thinking it."

"I blame your upbringing…" Bulma sighed.

"Speaking of...Vegeta-san, how do relationships work for Saiyans?" Skye asked.

"Women choose the man they want and do the deed among the middle and lower class," Vegeta explained, "Only the higher class did things such as marriage. But some of the other classes adopted the concept down the line."

"So the Saiyans just...lived freely."

"Free? Hardly! We were enslaved by Freiza and turned into his planet conquering police force," Vegeta explained, "He even implemented the Seeding program."

"Seeding?"

"Low class Saiyan children were sent off to low level planets to conquer them," Vegeta explained, "It's how Kakarot ended up here. He was sent here as an infant, but it seems he bonked his head and all of his Saiyan mental programming was erased."

"Wait so...Goku, you've never met your birth parents?" Knuckles asked.

"Mm…" Goku blinked, "No...No I haven't." he shook his head.

"Though…" Vegeta spoke getting their attention, "Kakarot was born just before Freiza killed our race, and the Seeding program was shut down a few months before. It's possible...Kakarot's parents sent him here...to save him."

"Never underestimate the love of a parent to their children," Aphrodite noted.

"Tousan and Kaasan did…" Goku spoke, "I wonder what kind of people they were?" he smiled.

"Can't be all that bad if they saved you...they must have been smart, too. Though...I don't think you inherited that trait," Vegeta muttered.

"Huh?" Goku blinked.

"My point exactly."

SZ: Yeah Eggman...he should've thought that plan out better…

GT: Can ya blame him? We went with Pre-SGW Eggman personality as in the Eggman who needs to factor Sonic and his being an embodiment of Chaos in order to remain sane.

SZ: Eh true

Z0: I wonder if that bop to the nose will scramble his brain…

SZ: Most likely

GT: Well, now we know thanks to Shenron the two worlds are fused. Things are going to be quite a pickle for everyone.

Z0: Indeed, many more adventures and crazy antics to be had. And you'll see the beginning of training the Sonic cast...to all new heights of power like you've never seen!

GT: 'Till then, please Read and Review!
