A/N: Welcome back to the new chapter of the All Worlds Alliance Missions - CROSSOVERDOSE, and I'm glad that everyone enjoyed the previous one. Once again, I apologize for not posting a new chapter from the previous week when I was suppose to, but real-life commitment and the wrath of mother nature had other plans for me.
Number01BlazblueFan - She's nice. That's all I can say.
And with that done, let's get this chapter on the go!
Disclaimer: I don't own any characters appearing in this fic except if it's my OCs which rarely makes an appearance.
-Earth 017-
Unnamed City in Japan
Meanwhile in another empty street somewhere in the city and while everyone are busy on their own respective tasks, we see two figures walking around while observing the area.
The first figure is a teenage girl with a skinny frame and a pale skin tone, she has bright golden-colored eyes and she has a lilac-colored, chin-length hair with brown hair visible at her temples. She wears a black short sleeve dress with orchid leggings and black point shoes with golden crescent moon buckles. Around her neck, she wears an amulet with an orchid gemstone. This is Amity Blight.
The second figure is a teenage Dominican-American girl with a skinny frame and tan skin tone, she had purplish-brown/brownish-purple short hair that is usually styled in a pixie cut, and she has hazel-colored eyes. She wears a pair of ebony earrings, a short-sleeved half-white and half-indigo hoodie with cat ears attached to the hood, high-waisted jean shorts, dark grey capris leggings, and a pair of white loafers. This is Luz Noceda.
"The source of noise should be around here somewhere." Amity uttered out loud, "Are you really sure that we're in your world?" she asked her companion.
Luz nodded in response, "I'm pretty sure." she replied, "I saw some signs and it's written in Japanese, and this language originates from my world." she explained.
Luz and Amity came from a place called the Boiling Isles with the former being a human and the latter being a different version of a witch. Both girls were former rivals/enemies turned friends and then later lovers.
The two were just hanging around somewhere in their school when a strange light caught on to them and the next thing the two girls knew, they're in a different place.
"Do you think Belos had something to do with this?" Amity assumed.
"I don't know." Luz replied, "He is trying to fix the portal door, so he can go this world, so it's possible." she considered.
"I hope the others are doing okay." Amity uttered in concern, "That bright light was pretty big and alongside the two of us, everyone were probably caught by it, too." she stated.
"I just hope that it's just the two of us who were caught by that light." Luz uttered with a hopeful expression, "Worrying how we can get back to the Boiling Isles is one thing but worrying about the others' safety is too much for me to be honest." she explained, "Let us hope that everyone are okay." she beckoned.
Amity nodded in response, "Okay." she said in agreement.
After a few minutes of walking, they came across a corner where they saw a group of thugs, snapping their fingers while gathered underneath a lamppost.
"Look, Amity!" Luz pointed out, "We found some people here!" she exclaimed, "Hey!" she called out.
Her shout immediately caught the thugs' attentions while slowly turning around, the group of thugs then sluggishly made their way towards the two girls while continuing to snap their fingers at the same time, unnerving Amity on the process.
"Luz..." Amity uttered, "... something is wrong with these people." she pointed out.
Luz then got a good look at the thugs and noticed that their eyes are missing the black dots, "Uh-oh..." she uttered in dread, "... are they some sort undead beings disguised as humans?" she assumed.
"I don't know but I'm pretty sure that it's not safe to stay here any longer!" Amity pointed out.
"Right." Luz uttered in agreement, "We can take them on but I rather not waste any time fighting these guys." she stated.
Before Luz and Amity could make a run for it, the thugs were then blasted away by a powerful shot, sending all of them flying towards the sides and knocking them all out unconscious, much to the two girls' surprise and shock, and the before they could utter a single world, a strange figure made his presence by walking out from an alley.
The figure is tall man with muscular physique and a pale complexion, he had a long a silver-gray hair styled in a bobcut and he had red-colored eyes. He wears a dark-brown high-collared jacket over a white collared shirt and a black buttoned vest with a black tie, he wears black trousers, black leather shoes with white cuffs, white gloves, a black Fedora hat with a red trimmings and a shades with the left eye covered with a red & white crossed design. This is Brandon Heat, also known as Beyond the Grave.
"W-Who is that?" Luz asked nervously.
"I don't know but he looks scary." Amity commented.
After checking that the thugs are down for the count, Grave turned his attention towards the girls which made them flinched in response, the fedora-wearing man then slowly made his way towards the girl before stopping in front of them.
The girls had faced many adversaries before and while they were scared at first, they managed to pull through in each experience. They've also seen a lot of scary monsters before but for some reason, the sight of the man terrified them beyond their rational thoughts but their worries suddenly vanished when the man uttered some words.
"Are you two okay?" Grave asked.
The two girls blinked in confusion, they looked at each other for a minute before looking back the hulking man before them, "Uh, yeah..." Luz confirmed.
"Thank you very much for taking out those guys for us." Amity expressed in gratitude.
"Mister Heat!" a voice called.
Grave and the two girls then turns around to see Gertrud Barkhorn and Erica Hartmann, in their Strikers, flying towards them and from a distance, they saw Alejandro Burromuerto running towards them.
Gertrud and Erica then cancelled their Strikers by vanishing their devices into bright sparkles, they then landed safely before everyone while Alejandro managed to catch up with them while breathing heavily.
"Is everything alright here?" Gertrud asked.
Grave nodded in response, "Everything is good." he replied, "I took out a group of mind-controlled thugs when I came across these girls." he explained before turning to Luz and Amity, "I assume they're victims of the bright light." he stated.
"I see." Gertrud uttered in acknowledged, "Thank you very much for the hard work as always, Mister Heat." she expressed in gratitude.
Erica then turns to Luz and Amity, "Hi!" the blonde greeted, "I hope you don't mind being away from your world for the time being." she stated before gaining a confused expression upon noticing the girls' red faces, "Why are you looking at me like that?" she asked.
"WHY ARE YOU NOT WEARING ANY PANTS?!" Luz exclaimed in disbelief.
"Shameless, so shameless!" Amity cried out.
"Are you girls some sort of strippers?!" Luz accused.
Gertrud crossed her arms, "Rude." she huffed in response, "Hartmann and I are not strippers." she denied, "The reason we don't wear pants is because it's easier for us witches to use our Strikers." she explained.
"And we feel more comfortable this way." Erica added rather cheerfully.
"Comfortable?!" Amity squawked in disbelief.
"Strikers? Witches?" Luz uttered in confusion, "What are you girls on about?" she questioned.
Alejandro took a deep breath before speaking, "I think an explanation is in order." he beckoned with a blank look.
After both sides introduced themselves to each other, Alejandro proceeds to explains things to the two girls such as the existence of the multiverse and the AWA. Afterwards Grave explained to them about the current situation of the multiverse, the bright light and their mission to take people back to their respective home worlds.
Gertrud and Erica would also explain about the Witches in their world and how their Strikers works.
"I can't believe it!" Luz cried out, "There are more than two worlds out there!" she exclaimed in shock, "So, does that means, even though I'm on Earth, this is not the Earth where I came from?!" she concluded.
Alejandro shrugged his shoulders in response, "Pretty much." he confirmed.
"And I still can't believe that there are different kinds of witches out there." Amity uttered out loud, "Still..." she trailed before turning to Gertrud and Erica with a blank look, "... you girls really need to do something about that pantless problem of yours?" the purple-haired girl requested.
"It's been this way ever since the Strikers were developed." Gertrud replied.
"Unless we had others way deal with our enemies, we really can't do anything about it our 'pantless' problems." Erica added with a cheerful smile
"Unbelievable..." Amity grumbled in disbelief.
"Anyway..." Luz uttered, "... you guys are here to save people like us?" she pointed out.
Gertrud nodded in response, "Indeed." she confirmed, "We're tasked to rescue every victims of the bright light and take them home safely." she explained, "And while at it, we're also dealing with eliminating some hostiles along the way." she added.
"Like those guys?" Luz questioned with a finger pointed at the unconscious thugs.
"Mind-controlled thugs are the least of our worries." Grave replied, "But due to their hostile nature while being in that state, we had no choice but to knocked them out without taking their lives." he explained.
"I see." Luz uttered in understanding.
"So, what are you guys gonna do now?" Amity inquired.
"We'll have you girls come with us for the time being." Gertrud replied, "We'll help you find a way back in your home world but our mission is currently on-going at the moment, so you'll have to wait for a while." she stated.
Luz thought out about it, "I guess so." she uttered in acknowledgement, "Amity and I are currently in the blind right now, so your help is really appreciated." she stated.
Gertrud nodded in response, "Good." she replied before turning to Grave, Alejandro and Erica, "Since we're done in this area, I say that we meet up with the others back in the library." the Karslander beckoned to which her companions nodded in agreement.
And with that, everyone made their way towards their destination.
"So, how many members does this organization of yours had?" Luz inquired.
"Over 9000." Alejandro answered.
"9000?!" Luz and Amity squawked in shock.
Meanwhile inside a library somewhere in the city, we head inside the reading area where we see five figures gathered at one table.
The first figure is a young boy with an adrogynous appearance and a short stature, he had a petite frame and a fair complexion, he had a messy waist-length silverish-purple hair tied by a large yellow-colored hair clips and cat-ears shaped top and he had purple-colored eyes.

She wears a sleeveless, black romper/playsuit with golden accessories alongside two golden rings each wrapping around her hips, two around her legs, and one in the shape of the sun on her stomach. She wears a matching headband and a long scarf that reaches past her waist. She also dons a pair of black detached sleeves with golden rings at the ends and detached socks with golden rings at the ends, and a pair of black & gold high-heeled shoes. This is Kat.
All five figures were purchased slaves from The Slave Fortress and fortunately for them, their chokers were taken off five hours early before they've been whisked away by the bright light. Although, they are thankful that they finally got away from the person who purchased them, they had nowhere to go and don't know how to get back to their respective worlds but fortunately for them, the heroes of AWA arrived and decided to help them.
Their heads perked up a little when they heard a small explosion outside.
"That was pretty close." No. 3 pointed out with a blank look.
"Yeah." Hibari uttered in agreement, "Good thing that the explosion isn't that loud like before." she said in relief.
"Small or not, an explosion is still an explosion, so don't let your guard down." Jenny stated.
Manami then crossed her arms, "Do you think that the person who purchased us is looking for us right now?" she questioned.
Kat shrugged her shoulders in response, "Probably." she considered, "But I'm pretty sure they won't be able to find us at this rate." she reassured.
As they continued on with their conversation, two figures walked towards them.
The first figure is a teenage girl with a slender frame and a fair complexion, she had a knee-length reddish-brown hair with a messy bobcut-like sides and an ahoge on top of her head, and she had brown-colored eyes. She wears a reddish-brown soft hat with a white bushed-cotton on her head, she wears a white long-sleeved jacket over a red one piece calf-length sleeveless dress with dark-red linings and white frills and a white long-sleeved turtlenecked shirt, and she wears a pair of dark-green boots. This is Kobato Hanato.

He wears a short high-collared dark tunic with light edges, cuffs and many decorative motifs on the lower part of the chest and sleeves, and the tunic's collar is left slightly open. On his shoulders are covered by a dark mantle with a high collar and light, jagged edges matching his tunic. In addition, he wears dark pants with light parts circling his thighs and gray boots. This is Lyon Vastia.
"Here, everyone!" Kobato chirped rather cheerfully while presenting the girls and No.3 a basket of muffins & cupcakes on their table, "Help yourselves with some muffins and cupcakes that my friend Pinkie Pie send to us." she stated with a smile.
"Wow! This looks good!" Hibari exclaimed in awe.
"Thanks." Kat expressed in gratitude, "Good timing because I'm getting pretty hungry." she admitted.
"Feel free to fill up your stomaches because once Mister Heat and the others are back, we'll be moving out." Lyon stated.
"Can we just stay here where is safe?" No. 3 requested before taking a bite of a cupcake.
Lyon shook his head, "We can't do that." he denied, "There have been reports of monsters and thugs breaking in buildings." he shared, "We can take shelter in several places but it's not exactly safe to stick around." he stated.
Manami sighed in disbelief, "I see..." she uttered, "So, how long before Mister Heat and others return?" she inquired.
Kobato thought about it, "Well..." she uttered, "... they just called us some time ago and told us they'll be here soon." she replied, "Also, they picked up two victims of the bright light as well." she added with a smile.
"Really?" Jenny uttered in surprise, "I wonder who they are." she thought out loud.
"Guys!" a voice called out.
Lyon smiled in response, "Looks like they're back." he announced.
"Welcome back, everyone!" Kobato greeted with a smile.
Everyone then turns around to see Grave, Gertrud, Erica, Alejandro, Luz and Amity walking towards them. And after some introductions with Luz and Amity screaming in shock upon discovering that No.3 is a boy, everyone decided to prepare themselves before moving out.
After a few minutes of preparation, everyone steps out of the library and much to their dismay, they saw a large number of mind-controlled thugs marching their way towards them, snapping their fingers while at it.
Alejandro facefaulted, "I knew moving out of here without any hitch is too good to be true." he grumbled in annoyance.
"Ugh!" Luz groaned, "These guys again!" she growled.
"Is it me or they've just multiplied?" Amity questioned.
"Shit!" Lyon cursed, "Guess we'll have to fight them first." he conceded.
"Those who can't fight please head back inside the library!" Gertrud ordered to which No.3, Hibari and Manami complied by running back inside the aforementioned place, "The rest of us will take these scoundrels out!" she declared.
"Let's go!" Grave beckoned.
And with that, everyone charges towards their foes and a fight ensues.

"My bad." Toushirou apologized, "I was so focus on trying to convince Sougo let you girls off the hook that I forgot about our current situation." he explained, "Slightly." he added.
"Slightly?!" Arisa squawked, "What do you mean by 'slightly'?!" she demanded.

"Anyway..." Misato interrupted, "... I think we should prioritize in taking you girls to safety first." she pointed out.
"Can we meet up with our other friends first?" Kasumi requested.
