Here's chapter 31. This chapter focuses on the characters of Aggretsuko and Sonic. Although if Zootopia characters appear, it is only a brief appearance.
Everyone at the kitchen table fell silent after hearing the declaration of the two older red pandas. They understood that they were both concerned about the children. Who won't be after all? But was it so bad that he had to get them out of town to be safe? Something in which they could give points to their concern, is that they would not know how long Eggman could appear and do his thing again, and of course Sonic and the others could stop him, but obviously for Retsuko, Fenneko, Haida and Ookami telling others was a risk they couldn't take if they didn't want to involve them in the problem. It was better for them to remain ignorant, since the less they knew, the more secure they would be.
"But mom, grandmom, they do not think they are rushing things, maybe the situation will not repeat itself and it was something in one go" Retsuko said.
"Yes, maybe it won't happen again and everything will be calm from now on. Don't be too quick to jump to conclusions," Haida said.
"What kind of thinking is that of you two! Are they not concerned about the safety of their son!" Retsuko's mother said, berating her daughter and her son in law.
"Child, calm down, I know they are worried. It's just that since no more dangers have occurred, they haven't realized what could happen" said Retsuko's grandmother calmly to her daughter.
Throughout that moment, Ookami, Fenneko, Komiya, Tsunoda, Manumaru, and Resasuke were stunned, wondering if this was the family environment of Haida and Retsuko or was it just the concerns of Retsuko's mother and grandmother. Although Fenneko has known Retsuko's mother for a few years, and she knew in advance from Retsuko how controlling she could be at times, but when she met her in person, she never imagined that she could have those kinds of reactions. She now she understood why Retsuko was careful when it came to her mother. She now wondered if her grandmother would be the same.
"Well, the fact is that we were thinking of taking the children for the weekend, but we cannot do it without your consent, and we want to know for you what would be the best for them" said Retsuko's mother, observing at the 4 pairs of parents in front of them.
At that very moment the children had approached the closed door and listened to the conversation, they were worried, since they did not want to leave their respective homes, or be separated from their parents. And in the case of Koka and Hana, it would mean that they wouldn't be able to see their new friends again for who knows for how long. None of them wanted to leave. They hoped their parents would refuse and say that they would rather all stay together, but hopes were not on their side this time. They heard Daisuke's parents accept the proposition, then Izumi's parents, then Hana's parents, and finally Koka's parents.
"No, it can't be," said the little pallas cat.
"I don't want to go," said the little gazelle.
"Like me, I want to stay here" said the hybrid between red maned wolf and fennec.
"We have to do something to let us stay here" said the red panda.
The four children then sat at the table to continue having dinner, while they thought about how to convince their parents to let them stay in the city, since they did not want to go far for who knows how long.
...
In the meantime; Sonic, Amy, Tails, Cosmo, Knuckles, and Tikal were finishing making dinner for everyone. The children were chatting with Rutan and Silver; and they finished catching up on everything that happened. Jewel had already woken up and was with her two older brothers, although she was more entertained with a small toy that they had gotten for her so that she could have a little fun. All the children were surprised that each of them separately, with their respective parents, knew people from the city of Zootopia, and that most of the adults they met were cops.
In the whole afternoon nothing out of the ordinary had happened for the inhabitants of Mobius, it was a quiet day, but that did not make them relax, since they had not heard anything from Eggman and that was not always good news, since when they did not had been known about him for a long time, it was because he was planning a major attack on a larger scale, and since unfortunately he had not located his base, they could not go spy to see what he was planning and be able to stop him, before taking their plans out. Although at least it reassured them that Shadow and Rouge would take care of that part, as they were good at it.
Right at that moment a sound was heard behind the door, as someone was about to enter. They already imagined that Gori had come home, and as they thought it was. Having entered, she closed the door. The workday for her had been the same, but she couldn't complain about anything, although perhaps, when she finished all this, she would take a vacation to relax a little and think about nothing. But just when she turns around she is surprised by three new visitors in her apartment that she hadn't seen before, but her appearance seemed to come from the same dimension as Sonic and the others, and they were around the age of children.
At that moment Sonic and Tails approached Gori and explained that they were Shadow's children, which they had already told him about before. They explained to him what Shadow and his wife Rouge planned to do to stop Eggman, but so that his children were not in danger they decided to leave them with them so they would be safe. The gorilla understood the reasons and accepted that they stay, since if she were in the position of the black hedgehog and the white bat she would have done the same. After that she approached the red echidna, the silver hedgehog and the black bat, she told them that they were welcome to stay until they could return to their dimension.
"Well, here I bring you something we can eat along with dinner," said the female gorilla.
Speed got excited, since he knew what was in there, and after three months without being able to eat one of those it made him feel more anxious and it showed by the expression on his face. Although that wasn't surprising to his parents, his honorary uncles and aunts, and his friends.
"I see that the events of the last three months have not changed anything regarding your taste for chillidogs" said Silver trying to hold back his laughter.
Speed nodded as he let out a little laugh and said "Well, you know me old friend."
Once the chillidogs were out of the packaging, they microwaved them, but waited for everyone to be done. When the moment came, a rather appetizing aroma was felt that finally made everyone's stomach begin to ruffle from the hunger they began to have.
They began to distribute each one the chillidogs, with the exception of Jewel, who since she was a baby, they gave her a bottle of milk to drink. Before starting to eat, they prayed momentarily, and when they finished, they began to eat. Everyone enjoyed eating the chilligdogs, although no one else like Sonic and Speed, which is their favorite food. Even Gori, who had never eaten one before, to everyone else's surprise, admitted that it was good to try something new that was eaten regularly in other countries, that although she had never tried them, she had heard people say they were delicious. Hearing that, made that the blue and purple hedgehogs happy.
...
Washimi has just arrived at her apartment, after her work. She was also having a quiet dinner at home. For her it had been another normal day of work where she did the paperwork of several important things, even putting the CEO in his place destroying the desk with one of her legs. At this point Washimi lost count of how many desks she destroyed for her boss in all the years that she had been working at the company. Sometimes it seemed more that she was his boss, and more considering how intimidated he was when she got angry with him. If it weren't for her, the company would have gone bankrupt many years ago.
At least outside of the regular things she did at work, she didn't have to worry about anything at the moment and the situation with the new employees in the accounting area was going well and without any problems, as Retsuko, Fenneko, Haida and Ookami hadn't mentioned anything wrong or out of place with their new coworkers. And although Washimi was already aware that the new employees were from another dimension, as Retsuko informed her and Gori of that, they seemed to have quickly got used to this environment, she wondered if the other people they met that weekend they will have gotten used to it too.
While preparing dinner, she suddenly received a call on her cell phone. Seeing that she was Retsuko she answered. It must have been something important.
"Good night Retsuko."
"Good evening, Miss Washimi. I hope I didn't bother you so suddenly."
"Do not worry. It's okay. Is something important happening?".
"Well, it's about something personal with regard to children."
"Oh I understand. You can talk to me, I have time to listen to you".
"Thank you very much, Miss Washimi."
Washimi heard Retsuko's every word, what her mother and her grandmother told her, the option for Koka and his friends to leave town for a while. But what hurt the most is that Koka began to behave coldly towards her and Haida. He assumed that Koka had overheard the conversation and disagreed with the decision to leave. If she was honest, Retsuko wasn't sure they would leave either, but the convincing power of her mother and grandmother was quite out that it was very difficult for her to refuse, even with her mother it was much worse, since she could never refuse anything she asked her, no matter how against her.
"I see. Well I understand their concerns. But personally I think it is the best for the children, although I think you should only tell your mother and grandmother to do the test that they take the children for at least a month, if nothing happens, then they could bring them back home".
"He's right, but I don't think Koka is going to be happy, even if it was only a month."
"Well, sit down and talk to him, I'm sure if you explain it to him better yourself, he will understand. Maybe you can convince him by telling him that when he comes back he will have something he wants."
"Oh, I can already convince him to leave, but for that I have to talk to Sonic and Judy first."
"I think they would be very happy to help you, but I think you should talk to them tomorrow, they should already be having dinner and they will surely go to sleep later."
"Yes, I'll call them before I go to work. Well, thank you very much for listening to me Miss Washimi".
"You're welcome, good night Retsuko."
"Good night".
After they both hung up, Washimi continued with her quiet dinner. She was glad that he could have helped Retsuko, in all those years she always had a problem, Washimi and Gori always gave her advice so that she could solve her problems. And she always managed to get ahead. Although something Washimi was wondering was what Retsuko would need Judy and Sonic in this. Well, she just had to wait and see, since she wouldn't ask Retsuko until she came over to tell her.
...
Meanwhile in Chiba prefecture, Shadow and Rouge had already met up with the agents they were going to work with to find Eggman's base. Honey, Morris and Hugo would team up with them while the others would be in charge of destroying the security cameras and any nearby robots with small bombs that would be unable to be located by any security system.
As it was already late at night, the group of agents accompanied by the black hedgehog and the white bat stayed at a hotel that the head of the agency had paid for them. Obviously Shadow and Rouge had to disguise themselves again to avoid attracting attention. Once everyone had dinner, they went to their respective rooms and went to sleep, they had to rest very well, since the next day was very long for all of them.
Well, so far the chapter. I hope you liked it and leave your comments.
