Underground Omniverse

Gammatron: Hey guys. I own no one in this story nor the series of Sonic Underground, Transformers, Ben 10 Series, or the BlazBlue series.

Rebel 5: Rage Beyond Reasoning

=Commence prisoner transfer=

A light rain fell upon the polluted, corrupted city of Robotropolis. The once-pristine castle of the royal family had become a facsimile of itself, turned into an egg-shaped fortress of steel and pollution. Four SWATBots, gunmetal in color with glowing purple 'vein' designs on the arms, legs, and chest, walked between Ben, Manic, and Makoto. Manic's neck-and his necklace-had been covered by a silver collar while Ben's left lower arm was covered in metal to prevent him from using the device.

"Move it, Freedom Fools!" a fifth one behind them, armed with lasers on both arms, ordered as he punted Manic's rear.

"Ah! Asshole!" Manic spat.

"Don't worry, Manic. I'm sure we've all been in tougher spots than this," Ben noted.

"Wow. Robotnik's sure amassed a metal military, huh?" Makoto noted, looking at the various SWATBot forces that were around, some on the ground and some even flying.

"Quiet!" the fifth SWATBot snapped before they were all scanned by a red light.

=Data signature confirmed. Opening main gate=

"Welcome to Robotnik Castle," the SWATBot sneered, taking lead.

Makoto whimpered as she began to hear agonized screams from within. The fortress was massive on the inside. Not one bit of the original castle remained, all of it replaced by various metals of colors akin to gunmetal and scarlet. A SWATBot with a yellow and red design noticed them and bumped another's shoulder.

"Hey look. That's one of the Royal Siblings!" the robot gasped.

"Heh. He doesn't look so tough," the bigger, sickly-green and gunmetal SWATBot snorted as the trio were stopped before a screen that depicted Robotnik.

"Lord Robotnik! Your prisoners have arrived! Your new weapon, though it got destroyed, worked and brought these three right to us," the leader informed.

=Model 244312, take them to the special Roboticizer I've set up just for the Royal Family and any of their closer allies= Robotnik ordered with a delighted sneer, the leader nodding in confirmation.

"Move it, prisoners!" the leader ordered once the screen went off.

"So…That's your name, huh?" Manic asked.

"I said 'quiet,'" the SWATBot growled, "But if you must know, the name's 'Onslaught.' We all look like one another, so we detail our armor and give ourselves codenames."

"Name's 'Blast Off,' because I love seeing thing shoot off into the sky and then 'Kaboom!'" one to the left of them cackled.

"Got the name 'Brawl' because I'm always in the mood for one," the other one on the left chuckled.

"Vortex," the one to the right of Makoto stated.

"I am Swindle. Once you three are Roboticized or not, come and see me sometime. For the right price, I can set you three up with some custom stuff," the other on the right chuckled until Onslaught slapped him on the back of the head.

"You and your underground dealings, Swindle," Onslaught sighed in annoyance.

"What? I may have been made by the fat guy, but if you've got the money, I've got the stuff," Swindle smirked.

"Just keep moving!" Onslaught ordered.

"Boy, your leader's a bit of a jerk," Manic whispered.

"Oh, that is. But he's got a soft spot," Swindle chuckled as they entered a long walkway.

"Uh…Are those…caskets?" Ben paled as he looked over a side.

"Yep," Blast Off chuckled, "You see, we have a few rare instances where Roboticization doesn't happen, but the Mobian in question being torn apart into a bloody pulp."

"Don't worry about it. We only have that once every 1000 Roboticizations. So far, we've only had 900 of them since the last death," Vortex tried to comfort to no avail.

"That's not making me feel any better, dude," Manic gulped.

"You know what's interesting, though? Our last 1000th Mobian that was Robiticized didn't die," Blast Off noted, "He got freed in the process of the thing and only ended up with robotic legs. How weird is that?"

"Enough! You four, don't talk to the prisoners! Prisoners, just shut up!" Onslaught ordered.

"Okay, okay…Yeesh," Manic snorted, 'So…Rafi was their last 1000th Mobian…'

"Oh, look. We're just in time to watch a Roboticization," Brawl chuckled as they stopped.

Ben and Makoto glanced to see Manic was perfectly hidden by Vortex so the Mobian behind the glass wall across from their right would not see him. The Mobian was a red female hedgehog with her long quills going down to her hips. Her soft, emerald eyes, showed her 'inner flame' in them as she walked onto a circular pad. Ben blushed a bit when he saw that the hedgehog had been stripped of all her clothing, exposing her bare figure and a star-shaped scar on her back to the world. She didn't appear to care. All she did was just give a motherly smile.

"Any last words?" a purple SWATBot asked, its head replaced by a single red optic, as it began to type down various commands.

"Only this…" the hedgehog informed, her voice British in nature, "My sons will come. They will strike you down and you will never know it was them."

"That is completely illogical. You have already told me they will strike me down," the robot stated.

"And that is why Robotnik shall fall and you robots will be dismantled for your sins," the hedgehog continued to give her motherly smile.

"…" the SWATBot's red eye began to glow, as if it were trying to glare at her.

He pulled a switch and a metal tube covered her. It raised up to reveal a glass tube now covered her with a strange laser aiming at her from above.

=Mobian to Robot Transformation scheduled in T-Minus 5…4…3…2…1=

A sickly red light shot down and struck the hedgehog. She did not give the one-eyed SWATBot any satisfaction of screaming in pain. Ben and Makoto could only stare in shock as they watched as what was once skin and fur began to turn into cold metal. The eyes melted, revealing black optics that held red 'irises' within. The quills sharpened out, turning into blades. The glass container went into the ceiling and the Robian just stood there, still giving the motherly smile the Mobian before had.

"Even Roboticized, you still are illogical," the one-eyed SWATBot sighed, "Robian 4242341, report to the Assignment Room."

"That was…" Ben shuddered as Makoto pressed her head into his chest, trembling.

"And just think; that is what you guys are going to endure next!" Onslaught laughed before pushing them on ahead.

Manic didn't respond except for just moving ahead. He didn't speak. He didn't look ahead. He just walked, his messy quills shadowing his eyes, a tear falling from the left one.

The trio was eventually forced into a floating cage, set up just like the one Manic, Sonia, and Sonic had been in just a few weeks ago when they first met Ben and Makoto. A hole in the ceiling opened up as a Roboticizer decorated with gold and jewels lowered itself, followed by a floating throne that held the fat, egg-shaped warlord Robotnik, Sleet and Dingo holding onto the sides of the Roboticizer.

"Well, well, well…If it isn't our new factors," Robotnik noted as he glanced at Ben and Makoto before settling his eyes on Manic, "And the youngest of the Royal Siblings? This just keeps getting better and better."

"Stop messin' around! I won't let you lay one finger on the ones I hold dear, my friends!" Makoto growled.

"Oh, really now?" Robotnik smirked, "Then perhaps you will be my first Roboticized being of the day, hm?"

"No!" Ben gasped.

Robotnik pressed a button on his floating throne. The Roboticizer opened up in the middle before two robotic hands zipped out and opened the cage. Before either male could stop them, the arms grabbed Makoto and shot her into the machine, sealing her within the glass casing. Makoto slammed a fist onto its surface, only for the limb to bounce back a little.

"The glass casing is interlined with multiple layers of diamonds too small for you to see," Robotnik smirked.

Ben growled as he tried to slam his hands on the bars. He cried out as he was electrocuted and sent into Manic. The two groaned as they slowly started to get up. Robotnik just sneered at them both as Makoto looked up at him with defiance in her eyes. Ben blinked and felt the harsh scents flare his nostrils. The scent of flames burning, metal melted and being melted, and the copper taste of blood. A king-themed knight stood before a chopping block, a red-haired girl, possibly 17 in age, having her head resting upon it while her arms had been severed, giving the same look Makoto was to Robotnik. Ben's eyes widened, the pupils in them shrinking down to the size of dots. The image vanished and a light caught his attention…a green light.

"What's h…?" Ben began before a flash of green light erupted from the Ultimatrix.

Time slowed for Ben once more. His bones and skin all felt like they were on fire. As if he was being struck with boiling magma. He could feel his blood turn from that to a strange cyan liquid, glowing bright and powerful within the veins. He felt himself get tall, very very tall. He could probably rival a two-story house, perhaps three-story. His muscles felt as if they were changing into a strange metal, same with his skin. Red spikes emerged on the sides of his back as his form turned a mixture of bronze, topaz, gunmetal, and silver in color with panels of glowing scarlet. His torso bared the Ultimatrix emblem. His head reshaped, turning a deep obsidian or gunmetal in color. His mouth vanished into a guard while his eyes had reshaped not into a green, but a red visor, giving him an intimidating appearance. The casing that was on his Ultimatrix limb broke apart due to his larger size.

CUE: FALL OF CYBERTRON – CITIES IN DUST

"Grimlock!" the robot roared before looking at himself, "Hm? I did not know this alien was in it."

"So you're able to turn into a robot as well? Hmm…Time to do a little hacking," Robotnik smirked as he pressed a button on his throne, causing Grimlock to grab his head in pain.

"Don't get…in my…head!" Grimlock grunted, a red aura starting to form at the bottom of his feet.

"Ben!" Makoto cried out in the Roboticizer, struggling to get out of her chains.

"You…tried to…hurt Makoto…and…our friends…" Grimlock struggled to get out, the aura rising up slowly.

"Ah, still trying to struggle for control? Well, you won't last much longer," Robotnik sneered, "What?-! Not even a full millionth percent?-! What kind of encryption do you have?!"

"Rrrrr…" Grimlock growled and grunted, holding his head as his body trembled, before grunting, "Nothing…feels right. Hard…to…think." 'Must…get out…of here. Everything's…different.'

"Stop it!" Makoto cried out in the container, "You're hurting him, you fat ass!"

"Quiet, you!" Sleet ordered before pressing a button on the controls, causing Makoto to cry out in pain as she was electrocuted before the current was turned off, letting her slump to her knees.

"Aaaaaaaaagh!" Makoto cried out during the electrocution, earning Grimlock's attention as the aura rose up to his waist.

"Uh…B-Ben…" Manic gulped as the aura suddenly started to bubble up faster, the red glowing parts of his body getting even brighter as the visor on his face started glowing a solid white.

"You…hurt…Maaaakotoooooo!" Grimlock roared out, his body erupting in the red aura, coating the area in it for a few seconds, before a strange black hilt and long bar attached to it extended from his right hand before orange-red energy blades went up both sides to form a katana-shaped double-edge sword.

"Don't let him escape!" Robotnik ordered as Grimlock began to slam his left onto the bars of the cage, the electricity shooting off them not even fazing the massive mechanical alien in his state of frenzied roaring and powerful swings from his sword.

"Dude, I'll pick the lock and…" Manic gulped before yelping when Grimlock stabbed him sword into the cage's bottom, piercing through all three layers, near Manic.

"No thanks," Grimlock growled, "I'll free myself!"

He then slammed his right fist into the ground before it began to shift into something else. His entire body began to open up and shift around. Manic gulped as he moved as far as he could to the back of the cage, Grimlock's shadow getting bigger and bigger until he was three times his original height, tearing right through the cage containing the duo. His arms and hands were now his legs and feet, his legs the tail. Towering over them was now a massive robotic T-Rex. Grimlock let out a roar before swinging his tail and shattering the Roboticizer just above where Makoto's head was nanoseconds before she ducked.

"Dude," Manic squeaked out in awe…and fear.

"Rrrrr…" Grimlock looked over at Sleet, the area around his jaws superheating to the point that the air was visible.

"Eep," Sleet squeaked before pulling out his remote, "You dummy, fight him!"

He pressed a button on his remote and zapped Dingo. Dingo grunted before transforming into an orange version of Grimlock with Dingo's nose, glasses, and eyes replacing Grimlock's. The two T-Rexes growled as they circled each other. Dingo charged until he was blasted in the face by a concentrated blast of flames erupting from Grimlock's mouth.

"Whoa…" Makoto awed as she jumped out of her shattered container's new 'sky opening' while Manic ran over to her.

"Is that…really Ben?" Manic pondered as Grimlock clamped down on Dingo's neck before ripping it from his body, causing Dingo to change back into his normal body, panting in fear of almost being killed.

"The bloke's playing for keeps, Sleet! The bloke is playing for keeps!" Dingo screamed as he picked up Sleet and shook him with each word before he ran off as Grimlock changed back into his robot form.

"No one controls me!" Grimlock roared, his sword out once more as he began to swing it at Robotnik, who was barely avoiding each swing, "I'll rip you to shreds! Rrrrrrrrraaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!"

"Rrr…" Robotnik slammed a fist onto his console before his throne flew off threw a hole in the ceiling, "This isn't over!"

"Great job, Ben!" Makoto cheered as Grimlock's blade went back into his hand while he panted and the aura faded away, "Oh man! That was just so awesome! You turned into a huuuuge metal dragon!"

"Tyrannosaurus Rex," Manic corrected, "A fire-breathing one at that. …Ben, I can honestly say that this form…yeah, it pretty much scares the crap out of me, dude."

"I don't care," Grimlock growled before ripping open a metal wall, revealing startled and frightened Mobians behind it in cells, "You all get out of here now. This is prison break."

"Jail break!" Manic cried out before he and Makoto began to help get them out of the destroyed cells.

"I'll take care of the opening," Grimlock growled before tearing open another opening in the base by kicking it with his left foot, tearing the right side open with both hands, and then pushing the other into the wall it was part of, and began to create even more in a path to the outside, crushing any robots in his path, "Go now! Flee from Eggman!"

"Eggman?" Manic repeated before he fell over, laughing, "Eggman! I…I love it, dude!"

"Awesome, Grimlock!" Makoto cheered.

"Not bad…for a walking tank," Manic pointed out.

"Shut it, Manic," Grimlock growled.

A beeping sound went off and he looked down at his symbol. He snorted before changing back to Ben in a flash of red light. Ben groaned before he started coughing into his hands. He looked down at his hands to see blood…his blood.

"Ben!" Makoto cried out as Ben fell over, passed out.

"I don't get it. Why is it that all of Ben's other forms not cause him an injury, yet this new one, this…what did you call it again, Makoto?" Cyrus pondered, turning to the worried, cloak-wearing Beastkin.

"Grimlock," Makoto replied, never once having her form turn away from the unconscious teen in a medical bed.

"Thank you. Why did this Grimlock alien cause him injury?" Cyrus pondered.

"No clue, dude. Maybe there's somethin' up with his Ultimatrix," Manic noted.

"Well, whatever it is, we'll need to keep Ben here for study on his recovery," Cyrus noted.

"Hmm…" the one-eyed SWATBot tapped his fingers together as he watched video of Grimlock's time in Robotropolis on loop, "A machine that transforms to this level…It seems that I have a new…project…to enjoy."

He glanced over at five stacked pods, containing the five SWATBots in charge of delivering the trio to Robotnik. Each one was set up into a middle, a left arm, a right arm, a left leg, and a right leg in terms of position when looked at in direct view of the five pods.

"Help me! Professor Kokonoe!" A Chibi-style Omake

Starring: Professor Kokonoe, Iron Tager, Ragna the Bloodedge, and Sonic

The curtain lifted, revealing something of a dark unlit lab…Said lab being somewhat messy. Then a spotlight sparked to life, revealing a fairly young adult catgirl with a slim body, wearing a large scientist like jacket with abnormally long sleeves that end up looking like paws, with cuts made in them allowing her slender arms to slip through, red pants with two long pink tails with white tips coming from the back, and high-heeled sandals. Her hair was pink, tied in a style consisting of a long ponytail backing up longer tufts resembling large cat ears which tend to overshadow her actual cat ears. Her eyes were a golden-amber with visible bags under them, possibly due to over-working, and she was also wearing glasses. With a certain elegancy, she began to speak.

"Hello lost children. I am Professor Kokonoe, lord and master of the Sector Seven laboratory," She paused to push her glasses back into place briefly, and then began to speak again, "…Well, OK, we aren't in the lab at the moment. This place can sort of be temporarily moved into the Boundary. Well, simply put, it's a mysterious room. A mysterious room where you can do anything you want. To be honest, it's a paradise for all those sad, little children who couldn't make it to the true ending. A sort of Avalon. If you're one of those nutbars who's all 'I don't need help,' or 'I want to unlock hidden stuff,' or 'I'll just look for a flowchart online,' then you can piss off."

She proceeded to sigh.

"Anyway, my job here more or less is to do three things every five chapters. First: Answer common questions that I believe most people are asking. Second: To do a little re-cap of what happened in the past five chapters for you idiots who decide to skip them to get to the good parts in later chapters. And finally, give out supporting information to further your understanding of the terms of BlazBlue and Ben 10," Kokonoe proceeded to glare at you, "One thing I would like to make clear now, is that none of the actions in this segment are considered cannon to the story, regardless of how crazy, funny, or even lovey-dovey it is. If I get one message asking about if this was cannon or not, I'm castrating the sender of said message with a cattle prod and a rusty knife!"

Kokonoe proceeded to sigh once more. It was rather repetitive for her at that point. She began to speak yet again to you, the reader.

"Very well. Now that that's out of the way, lost children of the day…you may enter," She ordered, and suddenly the whole lab lit up and Kokonoe took a few steps back.

As if on cue, the sound of a metal door sliding open echoed in the area. Ragna the Blodedge and Sonic the Hedgehog entered, walking into the middle of the lab.

"Huh? Oh, hey Professor Kokonoe!" Sonic grinned as he waved to her.

"Where the hell am I now?!" Ragna demanded.

"I see you still haven't fixed the door's problem," Sonic noted.

"Shut up! Bastard…" Kokonoe muttered.

"Look, big guy, we're in this special room in this 'Boundary' place and we won't get let out unless she gives us advice or something like that," Sonic explained.

"As if I want her damn advice!" Ragna growled before Kokonoe began to pull on his cheeks like she did with Kevin in Chapter 1.

"Look, bub, we don't have a lot of time for this," Kokonoe snorted, "We need to get on with this!"

QUESTIONS

"Okay. Let's start with Questions we've got in Reviews and PMs. So far..." Kokonoe looked over at the 'IN' Box and frowned, "Well...We are a new story here and not many probably have watched/played all three series."

"Well, let's start with seanzilla115's question," Sonic noted, "Characters that appear will appear when he wants them to. He's trying to keep the main cast small so everyone gets a line in."

"This one's from him, too," Ragna looked at it and glanced at Sonic and snickered.

"What?" Sonic took the question and read it, "Um..." blushes, "Well...Um..."

"That pairing will show themselves once they show themselves," Kokonoe informed before reading the last review, "...A5L..." her eye twitched, "I am calm...I am always calm..."

"No you're not," Tager pointed out before Kokonoe screamed and pounced on his face, claws extending from her fingers, "Oh dear..."

RE-CAP

"Okay, it's time for the Re-cap portion of our little get-together," Kokonoe informed, "Tager, this is your alley."

"Why is it my alley?" Tager asked in annoyance, his face covered in claw marks.

"Because you're the one with the camera installed in his eyes," Kokonoe smirked like a cat.

"I swear that you're a pervert more than a scientist…" Tager sighed with a shake of his head and his arms shrugging.

"Just shut up and do the damn review!" Kokonoe barked.

"Ha! You just told him to shut up. How's he supposed to do the re-cap when he can't talk? Dumbass," Ragna smirked.

"…Go eff yourself, Ragna!" Kokonoe snapped.

"I'll do it," Sonic volunteered, "Well, since this is chapter five, not much has happened. So far, it started when I met the professor here and she gave me a map that led me to Ben and Makoto…along with Sleet and Dingo who had followed us. They woke up the duo and Ben transformed into Way Big to scare them off. He proceeded to wake up Makoto and she started to try and beat up the guy!"

"Well, she did think he was with Hazama at the time," Tager noted, "He was able to prevent anything bad from happening thanks to turning into Spidermonkey and detaining her. After the introductions and stories were met, Sonia decided to do some clothes shopping for the two."

"Oh, so very true," Sonic nodded, "While she was off doing that, Manic and me had to deal with the duo who wanted to go out. We ended up at this neat smoothie place that's part of a chain it seems from what we saw in Chapter Four. Shame the one in Chapter Two got blown up by that EggKnight. But we managed to beat him back with the help of Rath and Makoto. Mainly Rath because he ripped off the robot's arm for crying out loud."

"So?" Ragna raised a brow, "I've cut off a lot of robot limbs."

"Yeah. You cut them off, not tore them off on the joint," Kokonoe pointed out.

"Anyways, after Sonia came back, Ben and Makoto got new clothes and we went off to Sanctuary. There, we met Friar Tuck, the orphans, and a surrogate mother of sorts to me, Nun-Kaka. Turns out, Makoto knows Nun-Kaka's daughter, Taokaka," Sonic pointed out.

"I'm still surprised about that. How can her mother be so kind, gentle, and intelligent while the daughter is insane?!" Kokonoe demanded.

"Well, you haven't seen her when she has babies or when someone's depressed around her," Sonic sweatdropped, "Anyways, this jerk of a knight, Frollo, was about to kill this little baby when Friar Tuck managed to persuade him not too. Frollo wanted to give the baby the name 'Quasimodo,' but Nun-Kaka changed it to 'Aka-Kaka' since he does look like he'd be a Kaka Clan member."

"Get on with it," Ragna frowned.

"You do it, then," Sonic frowned.

"I will. …Now what did you guys do next?" Ragna sweatdropped.

"Read from the prompt over here," Kokonoe informed as she pointed at Tager, who was holding up prompt cards.

"I see. Well, after that, Ben got a new alien called 'Omni-Kaka' and the group got an assignment to head to 100 miles east of Kashastan, wherever the hell that is. Turns out, Robotnik was building some new baddies there and ended up capturing Ben, Makoto, and Manic with a new laser weapon that teleported them straight to the capital, Robotropolis. …Robotropolis? Seriously?" Ragna frowned, "How dumb is that for a name?"

"Dumb, it may be. But the fatty who took over the world named it that way," Sonic frowned, "Anyways, the two finally met Robotnik, though he looked a bit different from what Manic told me. After that, he was going to Roboticize Makoto in front of the two when Ben's Ultimatrix went off and forced a new form to appear; Grimlock. When Sleet zapped Makoto for speaking out, Grimlock…well…"

"He got pissed off!" Ragna finished for him as a nearby screen showed Grimlock transforming, "He turned into that huge ass-kicking, fire-breathing monster and tore apart his cage and the Roboticizer Makoto was in. Then, he went off and beat up Dingo when he turned into a Dingo-Grimlock. You saw what he did to the guy! Grimlock ripped his head off! The entire head! How badass was that?!"

"Very. But you forget after Robotnik fled and the captured escaped, Ben's collapsed with coughing out blood, idiot," Kokonoe informed.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

"Okay, let's get this off first; the damn author isn't creative at all!" Kokonoe barked.

"Then how did he write up this little story?" Tager smirked.

"Shut up or I'll get Arakune in here and turn on your new function again like last time."

"Urk!" Tager flinched as he moved behind Ragna and Sonic, shaking like a leaf.

"As she was saying; the alien that debuted this chapter, Grimlock, is from the Transformers series of HASBRO. More specifically, he's based upon his Fall of Cybertron incarnation. The coolest of the Grimlocks in my opinion," Sonic smirked.

"Damn, that's one effin' way to create a sword," Ragna noted as he watched a screen play the cutscenes involving Grimlock from Fall of Cybertron along with some of his gameplay, "Did that robot just turn into a Dragon?!"

"It's a Tyrannosaurus Rex, Ragna," Kokonoe corrected.

"Anyways, Grimlock is a Cybertronian from the now-dead planet of Cybertron. That was thanks to Megatron infecting the planet's core with Dark Energon. This game series also coincides with the Transformers: Prime series currently shown on 'The HUB' in the US. Originally, Grimlock was able to use a vehicle Alt-Mode until he and his squad, the Lightning Strike Coalition Force, were captured by Shockwave, Sludge being off-lined before they could do any experimentations," Sonic shuddered, "Big, scary Insecticons…"

"How can it be a damn T-Rex if it breathes fire!? I'm telling you, it's a damn dragon!" Ragna argued with Kokonoe in the background.

"Shut the hell up! It is too a Tyrannosaurus Rex! It says so in his bio!" Kokonoe barked, "You can thank Shockwave for his illegal, gruesome experiments that rebuilt Grimlock all over again and involved rerouting almost all functions away from his brain, around 98.7 percent! It's a miracle Grimlock can even talk let alone think!"

"From the argument nearby, you can tell that Shockwave gave Grimlock and his team dinosaur alt-modes and renamed them the 'Dinobots,'" Tager added, "Grimlock escaped after the experimentation due to Starscream's aid AKA his body being used as a weapon to disengage his locks. He was able to rescue Swoop before his rage caused him to engage his first transformation into his Tyrannosaurus Mode, which is fitting if you ask me. I always thought that a Tyrannosaurus Rex was a perfect comparison to one's rage."

"In his T-Rex Mode, he can breathe flames, grows three times the size of his original self, has a powerful bite capable of tearing apart Decepticons, and is totally destructive. Good thing Robotnik didn't get him," Sonic noted.

"One of his weaknesses in this form is that he is easily angered, he can't think things all the way through in terms of plans, and he has no long-range weaponry, using only a sword and shield," Tager noted.

"Still, pretty badass," Ragna smirk.

"Okay, then Ragna, tell them about the Kaka Clan," Kokonoe ordered.

"Why me?"

"Because you're friends with the majority of the residents of the Clan. They even see you as an honorary member, for crying out loud!"

"Okay, okay. Yeesh. Don't get you tiny boobs in a bunch," Ragna snorted.

"…Snap," Kokonoe glowered, "Anti-Ragna-the-Bloodedge Core Unit: Brother Jin!"

"…Fuck you…" Ragna growled as Jin Kisaragi entered.

"Who the hell are you? Why did you summon me to this place?" Jin demanded until Kokonoe pointed at Ragna.

"Hey, idiot. This guy is pissing me off. You can take care of him, right?" Kokonoe offered.

"Oh god, it's Jin!" Ragna growled before everyone but Jin ran out, leaving him and Jin alone, "Hey, wait!"

"Brother!" Jin exclaimed as he ran over to Ragna, panting heavily with a loving look in his eyes, "Oh, brother~!"

"Whoa! Goddamn it, Jin! Stay the hell away from me! No-no-no-no, get off my back!"

"Way to go, Brother Jin!" Kokonoe cheered, peeking in.

"What?! No, screw this!" Ragna snapped.

"Hey, Brother. Just forget all about that nasty woman and have fun with me!" Jin declared lovingly as the room started turning pink.

"Whoa! What the hell's going on with this room…?! Hey, Kokonoe! Are you doing this?!" Ragna demanded.

"So how long do you think it will take?" Sonic asked outside the room.

"Give them five minutes," Kokonoe gave a cat-like smile before opening the door a little, "Ragna, mommy's gotta run some errands real quick, so why don't you two spend some quality time together. Tee-hee!"

"Oh, you're just so cruel," Tager chuckled.

"Gah! Jin! Stop whispering in my ear!"

"…I'm terrified right now," Sonic admitted.

"Guaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Aaaaaaaaaaaaah!"

*Two Hours Later*

"Um…uh…Miss Kokonoe. I wholeheartedly apologize," Ragna bowed, a dead look on his face, "Please…if you just let me talk about the Kaka Clan?"

"Huh? You two done already?" Kokonoe asked as she munched on a bag of candy.

"…I've…I've had enough…of just about everything…" Ragna replied.

"Whatever do you mean, Brother? We've only just begun!"

"…Help me…Professor Kokonoe…" Ragna whimpered with tears flowing down his face comically.

"Very well," Kokonoe sighed.

"Ahem. The Kaka are a clan of seemingly humanoid cat-people. Genetically engineered from the beast-man Jubei, one of the strongest creatures to exist, the Kaka were originally intended to be used as weapons against the Black Beast during the Dark War. The Kaka reside in the Lost Village, directly under the The 13th Hierarchical city of Kagutsuchi. When the Dark War had ended, it left large amounts of Seithr that covered most of the world. Humans were forced to move to high-altitude areas and began to build hierarchical cities. As a result of the hierarchical city being built on top of the Kaka's village, they were slowly forgotten. During the events of BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger, their village was repeatedly attacked by a black, blob-like creature which they called 'the black squiggly.' Though we know that it's really just that damn blob Arakune. However, Taokaka was able to drive it out of the village."

"Good, Ragna. Now go on and go home," Kokonoe waved him off, letting Ragna stumble out, exhausted physically, mentally, and soulfully.

"Ah! Brother, wait!" Jin called as he ran after Ragna.

"No-no-no-no!" Ragna screamed as he raced out.

"Well, I've gotta juice," Sonic shrugged before running out, "See ya, Professor!"
