Here's chapter 22. Now the heroes of Mobius will meet the last person to arrive from another dimension. Well, as I said before the main characters of Zootopia, Aggretsuko and Sonic reappear in the same chapter, although almost all separately.
Back at Carrier Man Trading Co., apart from the arrival of the new employees, the day passed normal in what could be said in the accounting area with Kabae gossiping, Anai in his spare time looking for recipes he wanted to use to prepare food for his friends, Tsubone correcting Retsuko in everything he had done all day. And both Ton and Tsubone overloaded Retsuko with work, although for a strange reason they did the same as Fenneko, Haida and Ookami, strange thing since they had never done that to the three of them. Part of Retsuko was mad about it, but part of her seemed to feel that the pig and the komodo dragon were doing that so that the four of them would not think about what happened at the weekend and were distracted by something else.
Due to all this they could not speak with the new employees, since they were sitting working on the other side of the office so that they could talk. They only hoped to end that overload of work before they left, otherwise they would lose the opportunity to explain what happened and how they got to this dimension.
Hours passed until it was time to leave work, everyone began to go home. Until the office was almost empty with only Retsuko, Fenneko, Haida and Ookami staying there, almost finished with their work. They finished with the last papers and finally put them away. They turned off their computers, got up, and set the chairs in place. Once the red panda and the fennec were done they went to the dressing room to change into their work uniforms and put on their regular outfits. They came out of the dress where the hyena and the red maned wolf were waiting for them.
Finally they reached the elevator and entered. As they waited to get to the ground floor, the four of them sighed as they were unable to speak to the new employees to tell them what was happening. The only consolation they had regarding that, is that since they had started working that same place they could see them every day. Since from what they could see at least one of the three new employees they spoke with seemed to be very friendly, as one was very serious and the other seemed very shy. While with the other four as they did not interact with them they did not know much about their personalities.
Once outside the building they began to walk down the street, it was quiet at night, but it was not very busy due to the fact that as many companies were closed, there were no crowds or traffic passing by. As they approached the train station, they remembered that they were going to buy some desserts for Koka and Hana, so they went to a shop where they bought four portions of honey toast that their respective children would surely love. Once they paid for their purchase they left the store.
Once they arrived at the metro station they were surprised, as their new co-workers were waiting for the train to go to their respective homes. They noticed that they were supposedly taking the same route that they were going. It wasn't the right place to talk to them about this, but they couldn't miss the opportunity this time.
So they approached them. Jack was the first to notice their presence and greeted them.
"Hi guys. We did not expect to see you here again" said the labrador retriever.
"Oh yeah. This is the route we take to go home" said the red maned wolf.
"That means that we will meet very often around here or even on the same train" said the english sheepdog.
"Yes, but right now we want to tell you something important, which I know will sound strange. They have time?" asked the red panda.
The seven nodded their heads, and after that Retsuko, Fenneko, Haida and Ookami told them what they had to say, taking advantage of the fact that there was no one near them. The others listened calmly, although they were in shock at the new information given, that could give them an explanation of how they got there in the first place.
"Then that would explain that white light" said one of the hyenas.
"And do you know when we will be able to return to our dimension?" asked the male fennec fox.
"Not yet, it all depends on whether the missing emeralds in Eggman's possession are found," said the other hyena.
"And the base of it has not been located yet" said the female fennec fox.
"Well, at least while we are here we will rest a little from the things that happen in our dimension" said the coyote.
"Horrible things happen there, just for example that some of your coworkers who are herbivores would not feel safe, neither with you nor with us because of many cases of predation that have occurred" said the red deer.
This left Retsuko, Fenneko, Haida and Ookami pale, since they learned in school that in this resignation they existed, but until the Middle Ages, they were terrified to think that there was a place where those cases had not stopped, since although they four, like their relatives, are carnivores, although they tend to eat any other type of food, they were afraid that if something like this were to happen again, Washimi, Gori or some other beloved one could suffer.
"But you don't have to worry about us" said Jack pointing to himself, and also to Legoshi, Collot, Durham, Miguno and Voss. "If we couldn't control our instincts, Louis or a friend of ours named Haru, who is a rabbit, would not be safe around us."
"You have more friends here with you" Retsuko asked.
"Yes, three more" Louis replied. "One of them started working as a bodyguard for the prime minister. And the other two at the moment have not found work, but they are looking in many places and waiting to be called. And we all live together in an apartment."
"Well, when you get home tell your other friends what we told you and keep calm, and don't draw attention," Ookami said.
"Don't worry, we won't," Louis said.
Just at that moment the train arrived, seeing it, everyone approached the section to board and got behind the yellow line. Once the doors were opened and some of the occupants got out, they got in and took their seats to finally head home.
...
In another part of town were Nick, Judy, Jack and Finnick coming home from the day they had with the children. After saying goodbye to Haru and Juno, and having observed the city from the tower's viewpoint and the children together with Finnick left the theme park with a large amount of things they bought, they went to other interesting tourist sites in the city such as Yoyogi Park and Ueno Park. Unlike the weekend, this was a more relaxing day for all of them, and it made them forget for a long time any problems that might occur.
By this time Nicole and Jerry were asleep in Nick and Jack's respective arms, while Judy and Finnick carried the things the children bought. Definitely that day left them exhausted and they seemed to have forgotten at least for the moment their possible death at the hands of Eggman two days ago, and if it happened that they were still afraid neither of them showed it to their parents or their honorary uncle. Although for four-year-olds children, it would be very difficult to fake the fear they had felt, if they were scared.
Once they got to the hotel, they put Nicole and Jerry on a bed and tucked them in so they could sleep peacefully. Fortunately, before going home they spoke on the phone with Stu, Bonnie and Mrs. Wilde, for that reason, they were not worried that something had happened to their grandchildren. Because of the way they sleep, they would not wake up again until the next day, for which the two brothers would have a peaceful night. That is a common trait that they have, since they were born. Never wake up until it was time to get up in the morning.
Before going up to the room they had asked for dinner to be brought to their room, the only thing left was to wait for their food to be brought. As they were a little more intimate, Jack took off his coat and tie and placed it on a rack, Nick also took off his tie and placed it on the same rack that Jack placed his things. Then the four of them sat down to wait for a table.
"Today was a calmer day, don't you think?" Nick asked.
"Yes, apart from the meeting with Haru and Juno, everything was quite normal" said Judy.
"This is how it must have been since we arrived two days ago, with no problems or worries," Finnick said.
"I agree, but in the end if we weren't involved in this it would have affected us sooner or later. And the things he plans to do are very different from any mastermind I have stopped in the past," said Jack.
"It is true, since if Eggman obtained the chaos emeralds, we could have been victims without having been aware of what was happening" said Judy.
"Well, at least something good came out of this situation. Because yesterday shortly before I found Zorori and his friends, I walked into a bar "said Finnick making his three friends frown. "And let's say I found some drinks that we can compete with over who can last the longest drinking them."
"It's a shame Finnick" Nick started saying and then changed it for his typical smile. "Like waiting so long to tell me. We could have had the competition yesterday or even right now".
"Nicholas Piberius Wilde!" Judy and Jack said in unison in such a way that they looked like they were Nick's parents at the time.
Nick realized that he had screwed up and that both he and Finnick were about to get a scolding from the two rabbits, which only stopped when the hotel employees brought them the food, then continued. Both the red fox and the fennec fox knew that would last until the moment they went to bed.
...
On the other hand Sonic, Amy, Tails, Cosmo, Knuckles, Tikal, the children and Gouhin had finished dinner. The inhabitants of Mobius were satisfied, the panda had stayed with them all afternoon, and apart from ordering lunch, he also prepared dinner for them. Since it was his way of thanking them for stopping Dr. Eggman from causing more harm and saving the innocent. They realized that despite Gouhin's intimidating looks, he was a good person after all. They wondered in part how he had gotten a job with the prime minister, but they surmised that he may have saved his life in some way. Seeing the time, the panda bear realized that it was late and that he should go home.
"Well, it was a pleasure meeting you, but it is time to retire. But if something important happens, don't hesitate to call me" said Gouhin.
"Oh yeah. Don't worry about it" said Sonic.
The panda bear, who already had his communicator on his arm, took the other four and put them in his trouser pocket. He then headed for the door, but turned around to say one more thing.
"By the way, if you need to meet the others that come from my dimension just let me know and I will bring them with you."
"We will take that into account. But only if necessary, since what we told you is what they need to know," said Tails.
"Good. So, see you later" said Gouhin and then open the door, go out and then close the door behind him.
Once they were left alone, they just had to wait for Gori to get home. They wondered if she and Washimi had gone to yoga classes, as she told him they sometimes did, since depending on that it might take longer to return and they didn't want the leftover food Gouhin had prepared to get cold.
They did not have to wait long, since Gori arrived in less than five minutes and she was accompanied.
"Oh, Miss Gori is here, and I see Miss Washimi came with you," Amy said.
"Yes, we came to tell you about something that we found out today at the company," said Gori.
"These are the new interns who started working in accounting. It turns out that they come from another dimension," said Washimi.
"Have you met them already?" Knuckles asked.
"Not personally, but we have seen them from afar" replied the eagle.
"But Retsuko, Fenneko, Haida and Ookami did, and they already talked to them" said the gorilla.
"They must be the same ones Gouhin told us about," Cosmo said.
"Who?" Washimi and Gori asked in unison.
They all explained the panda's visit.
"Wow, it looks like you all had a busy day too" said Gori.
"Yes, you could say yes" said Tikal.
"Well, if it's not a problem I think it's time for us to have dinner too" said Washimi.
The heroes of Mobius went to the kitchen and put the plates on the table and tasted the delicious food that was left for them.
Well, so far the chapter. In the next one, Bogo, Clawhauser, Shadow, Rouge, Rutan, Silver, and Jewel appear again.
