Elsewhere with the ninja and the street fighter, the two were thought to be having lunch by now, but for some reason, they're at a clothing store. Inside, an impatient Naruto is seated on a bench with his arms crossed and constantly tapping his foot on the carpet floor. Sitting next to him is a young European man no more than 20 years old.

The man seems to be in a similar situation, only he does not have the look of impatience.

"Been waiting for what feels like hours?" The man asks.

Naruto turns his head and says- "Nani?" "I feel your pain, man, I really do." Naruto "I...I don't understand what your-" "(Continued) wakarimasen."

Strange...Naruto doesn't seem to understand the European man.

Apparently all this time he was speaking Japanese since the 1st chapter. Despite this, the man continues talking, it may be possible he understands the confused blonde.

"I mean I love my girl to bits, don't get me wrong...but WHAT is so damn hard about finding the correct pair and taking a bloody century to put it on and take it off?"

Naruto simply just nods his head in agreement to possibly avoid making it awkward. This doesn't mean the ninja is uninterested however, far from it. As the man continues to go on and on with his little sexist rant, some of what he's saying is getting through to Naruto with just bits and pieces.

The ninja is lost in thought until- "I AM NOT YOUR DAMN BUTLER!" "I'm not..." Some of the shoppers look at the man's direction, he then regains his composure, hoping not to make any further scenes.

"Junbi ga dekite!" Sakura says as she leaves the dressing room, wearing her new clothes consisting of a long jersey with booty shorts and a jean jacket.

"Finally!"

Says the relieved Naruto. Sakura then poses, showing off her new duds.

"So what do you think?" "Looks kinda weird...then again a lot people talk and dress weird in these parts." Taken aback by Naruto's bluntness, Sakura walks over his face and says "Ugh, man you're blunt!" "And I wouldn't be talking; by that logic, your clothes are just as weird as mine!"

Naruto nervously chuckles, saying "OK-OK, don't hit me, it still looks pretty cool!" "Whatever..."

"Anyway, sorry I held you up, but I just had to change out since my uniform got all dirty when Tails almost ran me over."

"Huh?" "But he did run you over didn't he-" "Let's eat!" Changing the subject, Sakura runs her way to the front, leaving Naruto quite puzzled as to what really went down earlier, despite the answer being quite obvious.

Meanwhile back at the repair shop, an intense repairing session is currently at play.

"How's it lookin', kid!?" Ask's Peter Quill, who's sweating bullets at the moment. "It's coming along great!" Responds the worried Tails, who cheers the engineer on.

"Are you sure you don't need a breather!?" "I'm good, this is the easiest part of my job, believe it or not" Peter says with absolute confidence, which he manages to back up when- "ALMOST GOT IT!"

The operation is nearly complete, but in the most peculiar way possible when it's revealed that Quill was not using tools of any kind to fix the Tornado, but rather art tools... It seems that in this world, cartoon objects can be repaired by just painting them.

"Whew!" "You're lucky I had just the right colors for this, otherwise, I'd have to order some, which takes forever around these parts." Said the now tired Quill, who walks over to his table and grabs a bottle of water.

"It's probably best if you stay in town until sunset." Quill suggested, saying-

"Those dragons you brought up earlier don't often show up at night."

While sitting on the wing of his plan, Tails takes a moment to think about it, but-

"I don't know, I am in a bit of a hurry, but I'll take it up with my partner to see what he thinks."

Quill scoffs.

"I don't mean to pry, but you guys running late for a wedding in Toontown or something?"

"Heh, no, it's just that I'm...I'm trying to make an effort solving the Big Boom issue that's been plaguing our worlds for the last 5 months."

Quill squints his eyes, he doesn't seem to fully follow Tails' statement, then begins to pry, despite saying he didn' mean to.

"Wait...You're saying YOU can fix all this?"

"Not alone anyway, let's just say I know a group of people who might be able to restore things back to normal."

Now left even more curious, Quill attempts to ask another question, but-

*RING!*

A new customer has entered the shop, revealed to be a redhead dressed in leather with piercing silver eyes and a friendly smile.

We'll call her Kira.

"Hi." The attractive redhead said joyfully.

"BYE." Says Quill, who's suddenly quick to the draw when he pulls out a silver 9mm pistol from his pocket.

This unexpected response completely alarms Tails.

"W-what are you doing!?" Tails asked frantically.

"Just stay where you are, Tails, it's a dragon." Quill warned with his finger inches away from the trigger.

"BLACK Dragon", to be exact. Kira says nonchalantly with her arms raised.

"Who gives a shit, you're evil." Quill remarks.

"Just saying..."

"Not to sound sexist-

"Then don't" The deadpan redhead said .

"But for a woman, that was REALLY ballsy yet INCREDIBLY stupid of you to just stroll in here like nobody's business."

"The least you could've done was cover up your tats." Quill says as he takes quick glances of Kira's well rounded cleavage with a dragon tattoo on it."

"Not that I'm complaining." The smug Quill says, followed by a wink.

Quill then gets serious as he slowly walks over to Kira, but stops at least 7 feet short.

"Anyways, I told your boss, I'm not interested, no matter how much he offers me."

"Yeah, about that; we're done with the offers, Kano has other plans for you." Said Kira, who now has her hands behind the back of her head.

Unbeknownst to Quill, she seems to be digging for something in her ponytail.

Peter glances outside the window and back at Kira.

"You came alone?"

Kira nods and says-

"My dragon's parked on top of the roof."

"Then get him off and get the hell outta here." Quill demands, in which Kira responds with a simple "OK." before shouting-

"NATSU!"

*CRASH!*

Crashing through the roof like a flaming meteor, a pink haired man around Naruto's age with olive green eyes dressed in similar clothing as the Black Dragon clan appears from all the smoke left in his wake.

It's Natsu Dragneel from Fairy Tail!

Quill is now on the floor from Natu's drop-in.

As the engineer raises up, he sees the dragon slayer standing before him and feels utterly powerless, knowing the chances of a regular human surviving a cartoon character are quite slim, especially an anime character.

The only response Quill can give out now is an-

"Ah...SHIT."
