Here's chapter 9. As happened in the previous chapter, the main characters will find characters from other fandoms in this chapter as well. This chapter runs at the same time as the previous chapter.
Nick, Haida and Ookami were in the north of the city, they just left Gori's apartment. They had decided to walk a bit since possibly on the way to where they were going they might be able to find those they were looking for.
"So you play bass Haida, it's great," Nick said.
"Umm, thanks. Although I still don't consider myself an expert" said Haida.
"Oh, come on. Don't be so modest. I've seen you play and you do well. I've even seen you teaching Koka to play" said Ookami.
At that moment Nick put his arm around Haida in a fraternal way and said "I would like to see how you play one day, maybe you could teach me to play too" said the fox.
"Well maybe when this is all over I can make some time in a weekend" said the hyena.
"That's fine with me" said the red fox.
"Hey guys. That doesn't seem strange to them" said the red maned wolf.
When Nick and Haida looked where Ookami pointed at them.
There they saw four beings, that if they were not because they wear strange clothes that they had not seen before and that in three of them they were similar to each other. Each of them was of a different species.
The first was a fox with light brown fur over most of his body, while it was cream colored on the snout section, the front section of its neck, the tip of its tail, and on its head. His eyebrows were cream-colored, green eyes, and brown nose. In stature he was the second tallest of the group. In clothing he wore a green pilot suit with a red scarf, a black belt with a gold-colored triangular buckle, a white jacket, and silver boots.
The second was a pheasant with blue plumage and a long tail. The plumage around his eyes was red, his eyes were green, and his beak was yellow. In stature he was the tallest of the group. In clothing he wore a red pilot suit with an orange scarf, a gray belt with a rectangular gold-colored buckle, a white jacket, and silver boots.
The third was a green toad over most of his body, with the bottom of his head being a shade between green and cream. His eyes were blue. In stature he was the shortest of the group. In clothing he wore a yellow pilot's suit, a white belt with a white rectangular buckle, black gloves, gray boots, a cap red with a white front. Unlike the others, he did not wear a scarf or jacket.
The fourth was a brown rabbit, whose muzzle, the middle part of its face and its eyebrows were cream-colored, its nose was brown. In stature he was the third tallest of the group and he was also the oldest. He wore a red general's suit with yellow buttons and yellow shoulder pads, red pants, and black boots.
After having seen them they suddenly noticed that their communicators began to blink, they began to slowly approach them, and with each step they realized that the blinks were getting faster.
"It's them," Haida said.
"And how do we approach and what will we tell them?" Ookami asked.
"Don't worry, leave it to me," Nick said.
The red fox moved away from the hyena and the red maned wolf to get closer to the other fox, the pheasant, the toad and the rabbit.
Haida and Ookami just watched as Nick approached them with a friendly smile. After about 5 minutes passed, he motioned for both of them to come closer. They were amazed at how easily she was able to talk to them, and they agreed to talk to a stranger.
"Well, let me introduce you. They are Fox McCloud, Falco Lombardi, Slippy Toad and General Peppy Hare" he said while pointing to the brown fox, blue pheasant, green toad and brown rabbit respectively.
"And they are Haida and Ookami, who live in this city" he said while pointing to the hyena and the red maned wolf.
"Nice to meet you" they all said in unison.
"So you know how we got here, right?" Fox asked.
"Yes, it is a bit complicated, but we could discuss this elsewhere" Ookami replied.
"This place is very crowded with people and we don't want anyone to listen to us," Haida said.
"If that's the case, then we can go to our apartment. Nobody will bother us there, since apart from us, we have four others who also live with us and who also come from where we come, "said Falco.
"Sounds good," Nick said.
...
After about ten minutes of walking, they reached one of the tallest buildings in the city. They entered and went to one of the elevators.
"How did you manage to get an apartment here?" Haida asked.
"Well, in these three months that we have been here, we have all been working, to have enough money to be able to survive, to have a temporary home and food," said Peppy.
Just then the elevator doors opened and the group got out. After leaving, they walked down the hall and arrived at a specific apartment.
"Well, here it is" said Slippy taking a key and putting it in the lock to open the door.
When he opened the door and everyone came in, he closed the door again. The apartment was completely neat and clean. And it was quite spacious, very similar to Gori's apartment.
"Fox, Falco, Slippy, Peppy are early today," said a voice that came from another room.
Right at that moment a robot appeared in the living room that had a golden colored body with the sections that joined its limbs were silver colored. On his chest he had a logo similar to that of a fox on all fours which was green and had a red visor that is supposed to be where his vision sensors are supposed to be. In stature he was taller than everyone else in the room.
"I see they brought visitors" said the robot looking at Nick, Haida and Ookami.
"Yes, ROB. They come to explain to us what happened that brought us to this planet" said Fox.
After that, the robot presented itself with the red fox, the hyena, and the red maned wolf.
"Do you know what that white light was?" asked the robot.
"We don't know much about it. But those who sent us to look for them gave us an explanation of what happened. So if you have time we can tell you about it," Nick said.
The brown fox, the pheasant, the toad, the rabbit, and the robot nodded, and asked him to take a seat.
They were given the explanation of how the chaos control was activated and how the inhabitants of Mobius were looking for the missing chaos emeralds to cause another chaos control that would take them back to their universe.
"Wow, how many of those emeralds do you have right now?" Slippy asked.
"Those who sent us to look for them have 3 right now, while their enemy has 4" Ookami replied.
"Although they are trying right now to find a way to locate it, and retrieve the emeralds," Nick said.
"At least we have a little hope of going home," said Peppy.
"Although we also want to know where you came from," Haida said.
"Well, I was born on the planet Papetoon and Falco was born on the planet Zoness. Although we both currently live on the planet Corneria. Slippy and Peppy do come from the planet Corneria" said Fox.
"Those planets are in the Lylat system. That system is very far from where this planet is," said Falco.
"What were they doing at the time they were teleported here?" Nick asked.
"Well, we were coming from a rescue mission, as an army of mercenaries who wanted to take over Corneria had kidnapped Peppy. We teamed up with our rival team known as Star Wolf to rescue them. It was a tough battle, but we managed to come out victorious" said Falco.
"When we were coming back in our Arwings, in the direction of our ship known as Great Fox. But when we were about to enter ROB told us from our ship that an unknown energy was approaching us" said Fox.
"We tried to get to the Great Fox in time so that if the power got to us, it wouldn't damage the Arwings. But just a few feet from reaching it, white light appeared and enveloped everything around us. We lost communications with each other," said Slippy.
"When we woke up, we were in the middle of a park. Fortunately no one was around when we showed up and the five of us were together, but there was no sign of the Star Wolf team, neither were the Arwings or the Great Fox" said Peppy.
"Out of curiosity do you think it was the Star Wolf team who stole your Arwings and your ship?" Ookami asked.
"At first, that was the first thing we thought about, considering our past history with them. But when we finally found them, they didn't have their respective ships either, and they had been looking everywhere for them," said ROB.
At that moment, someone was heard someone knocking on the door.
"Oh, it must be them" said the robot getting up and heading for the door.
After opening the door, three month beings entered, looking less friendly and more intimidating. Once they entered ROB closed the door.
The first was a gray wolf, whose fur on the muzzle, the middle of the head and the tip of its tail was a lighter gray. His eyebrows were light gray. His right eye was purple. His nose was black. He wore a blue laser-proof vest over a black suit that had purple markings, he wore a black glove, boots, and knee pads. He also wore a metal belt with a purple buckle. He also wore gray spiked shoulder pads and wore a colored patch over his left eye.
The second was in green chameleon. He had yellow markings under his eyes and black dots on the top of his head. His eyes were blue. He wore a dark purple laser proof suit that covered his entire body including the tail. He also wore a metal belt with a purple buckle. He wore gloves and boots made from the same material that I brought him, but while his boots are dark in color, his gloves are white.
The third was a black panther. He had a white mark on his right cheek. The pupils of his eyes were green, while the irises were black. His nose was white. He wore a blue and white laser proof suit. On his chest section he wore a gold colored shield. He wore a gold colored metal belt. He wore gloves and boots made of the same material as his, but while his boots are blue with gold, his gloves are white with a gold stripe around the edges.
"And who are these three strangers?" said the wolf with the most serious face and few friends that he could put.
"They are our guests, they were explaining to us what was the reason why we ended up on this planet" he said with an angry face.
"Oh seriously? And do you know how to get us home?" Said the chameleon ironically.
"Of course they know it, but they still need some things to do it" said Falco a bit annoyed by the attitude of the chameleon.
The panther just ignored the conversation.
"Who are they?" Haida asked.
"They are the members of the Star Wolf team. The one in the middle is called Wolf O'Donnell and he is the team leader. The one on the left is named Leon Powalski. And the one on the right is their newest member, Panther Caroso," said Peppy.
"Although we no longer have an enmity relationship with them, but a more neutral relationship, Fox and Falco still have a great rivalry with Wolf and Leon," said Slippy.
At that moment Nick's communicator began to ring. Everyone present heard the sound and fell silent. The red fox, looking at his communicator de él, realized that it was a call from Judy.
"Hello Carrots. What's going on? Really? We also. They what? Oh well. Let's hope they get it. And it is. I'll tell the others. Bye," Nick said.
"Who was?" Haida asked.
"Was it Carrots?" Nick replied.
"Carrots?" Ookami said.
"Carrots is Judy. It's the nickname I've given her since I met her. Carrots told me that she, Retsuko, and Fenneko have just found some of those who were sent to this dimension with chaos control. And I told him that we too" said the red fox.
"And what else did she say?" asked the hyena.
"Well, she spoke to Tails, but he told them that he had left the city with Stripes to search for the master emerald, who had detected it. And if you're wondering who Stripes is, it's the nickname that I gave Jack years ago. Carrots also said that us to go meet at Gori's apartment" said the red fox.
"So what do they say? Are you coming with us? "Haida asked.
"Well, if there is a way back to the Lylat system, then we will go with you," Fox said.
Falco, Slippy, Peppy, and Rob nodded.
Then Nick, Haida and Ookami looked at the other three as if silently asking them.
"Well, at the end of the day we have nothing to do at the moment, so yeah, let's go with you" said Panther answering on behalf of himself, and also of Wolf and Leon.
"Well, if that's the case, time to go, but what do we do with ROB. Is it not going to attract attention? "Ookami asked.
"Sure he will, but if someone asks we'll say he's a person in disguise and we go to a manga convention. So we could explain why we come dressed like this" said Slippy.
Once everyone agrees, they leave the apartment, go down in the elevator and leave the building to go in the direction of Gori's apartment.
And here the chapter ends. This chapter focused on Nick, Haida, and Ookami. The next one is going to focus on Washimi and Gori, so stay tuned.
