A/N: Interesting greetings there and XYGirl2019 is here, and I would like to thank everyone that read the eighth chapter of the Multiverse Adventures While Riding On A Bus.
Anyway, enough chit-chat and let's dumpster dive with this story!
Disclaimer: With the exception of several OCs and concepts, I don't own anything.
After managing to escape the very dangerous world, Amity Blight, Ed the Lump, Edd the Sockhead, Eddy the Scammer, Erika Kurumi, Fate Testarossa Harlaown, Gingka Hagane, Goblin Slayer, Heartful Punch, Ichigo Kurosaki, Ichigo Momomiya, Itsuki Myoudouin, Juugo Yama, Kaoruko "Kaos" Moeta, Kevin the Jock, Luz Noceda, Mereoleona Vermillion, Monkey D. Luffy, Musashi the Brave Fencer, Nanoha Takamachi, Naruto Uzumaki, Natsu Dragneel, Reisen Udongein Inaba, Rex Salazar, Rolf the Son of Shepherd, Rumi "Mirko" Usagiyama, Ryuuko Matoi, Tadakuni, Tsubomi Hanasaki, Undine Wells, Yami Sukehiro, Youji Itami, Yuna the Bear and Yuri Tsukikage crammed inside the bus while Jason the Watcher sat on the driver's seat.
"AUGH!" Ichigo K. growled, "Can someone please move their hand from my face!?" he demanded.
"Get your feet from my own feet then!" Ryuuko retorted.
"Um, Luz, can you look away from me?" Undine asked rather shyly, "I'm not particularly comfortable with the way you're looking at me." she admitted.
"Sorry Undine but I can't really move." Luz replied with an apology, "Though I can't really say I feel the same you do." she admitted.
POW!
"OW!" Luz yelped in pain.
"That's my girl, Luz!" HP yelled after stomping on Luz's foot.
"Sorry, sorry, I was just-" Luz tried to apologize until...
POW!
"OW!" Luz yelped in pain again, "What was that for, Amity!?" she asked.
"Oh, um..." Amity uttered while looking away, "No reason." she replied after slapping Luz at the back of her head.
Tadakuni then began to sniff the air and his face contorted in disgust, "GS?! What the fuck is that smell?!" he questioned.
"Goblin stains." the Goblin Slayer replied with a dull tone, "It doesn't wear off that easily." he explained casually.
"Jesus Christ!" Tadakuni exclaimed.
"If you think that smell is horrible..." Eddy uttered, "... wait till you get a load of Ed's armpits." he shared.
"Because I'm simple." Ed said with a smile.
Mirko's eyes then widen in shock before her face turned into a glare, "Okay, whose hand is that!?" she demanded rather angrily.
"Mine!" every males, except for Jason, answered.
"You got to be kidding me?!" Mirko exclaimed in disbelief.
"Ugh!" Gingka let's out a groan, "While I'm glad that were out from that hellhole of a world but I'm not happy being crammed inside a bus like a sandwich!" he complained.
"Our apologies, Mister Hagane." Double D apologized, "We we're in such a hurry that we forgot to mention that this bus can only house fifteen people." he explained.
"And to be honest, I rather choose this situation instead of getting stuck back in that world." Kevin pointed out.
"He had a point." Yuna uttered in acknowledgement.
"Whatever." Gingka grumbled.
"Anyway..." Jason uttered, "... whoever is at the end of the bus..." he mentioned, "... could you please open the back door, so we can get everyone out of this uncomfortable situation?" he requested.
Yuri raised an eyebrow, "Are you seriously want one of us to open the back of this bus?" she questioned in disbelief.
"While moving!" Itsuki added.
"Trust me and you'll understand." Jason insisted.
Kaos, the person whom is at the very back of the bus and the least affected by the cramped situation, reaches a hand on the door's handle and upon opening, she is greeted by the sight of a long majestic white-colored hallways with red-furred carpet on the floor, golden-colored chandeliers hanging at the ceiling and numerous red-colored doors on each sides.
"Aabababababababa!" Kaos stuttered in shock.
The rest looks through beyond the door in awe, "What in the world?" Yami uttered in disbelief.
"I know that you're all surprised from what you're lookin' at the moment but we'll explain things later, so please get a move on before I get a hernia!" Eddy exclaimed in annoyance.
Everyone then slowly made their way through the door and to the other side while leaving Jason behind by the wheel as he navigates through the portal to find a safe place to park the bus.
Walking through the long majestic white-colored hallways with red-furred carpet on the floor, the newcomers can't help but look around in awe.
"I feel like I'm in George Clooney's mansion." Tadakuni commented.
"Who?" Fate questioned in confusion.
"You boys never mentioned that your base of operation is pretty grand." Youji stated.
Double D rubs the back of his head, "Sorry about that." he apologized, "We we're so focus on our task in hand that we forgot to mention it." he reasoned.
"Where is this place?" Tsubomi asked.
"We're currently in the Watcher's Realm." Double D answered, "A world where divine beings like Jason resides." he mentioned, "The bus we've just rode on is actually a divine vehicle that has the ability to travel across the multiverse." he explained, "And the bus is connected to this world which is very convenient because we can travel and stay at the same place altogether." he concluded.
"A very unique type of magic that is unheard of from Yami and mine's world." Mereoleona commented.
"And I agree with the youngster, the vehicle connected to this world is very convenient." Yami said in agreement.
Rex looks around, "How big is this place?" he asked.
Kevin shrugged his shoulders, "We still don't know how big this place is because we haven't explored the other floors." he answered, "Likely because the people taking refugee here is still minimum at best." he assumed.
"Where are the other people you've rescued?" Nanoha asked.
"Hey guys!"
Everyone then turns around to see Konata Izumi, Tsukasa Hiiragi, Kagami Hiiragi and Miyuki Takara walking towards them.
"You're all looking at them." Eddy answered.
"Only four?" Erika questioned in disbelief.
"There are more of them but I guess they're staying in their respective rooms at the moment." Double D answered.
"How was the mission?" Miyuki asked.
"And is everyone okay?" Tsukasa added in concern.
"The mission went well and everyone is accounted for." Double D answered when he remembered something, "Except for one." he added.
"What do you mean?" Kagami asked.
"Unfortunately, we we're unable to save a little boy from being devoured by a strange unseen creature." Double D replied, "We didn't see it because we we're in a different area before hiding ourselves but the sounds that we heard implicates that the boy had been eaten alive." he explained, "It was so fast that we couldn't do anything." he reasoned.
Rolf then brought out a pair of shoes, "And here's the proof." he presented.
"Oh my God..." Fate uttered in horror while placing a hand on her mouth.
"Why do you still have that?" Juugo asked.
"Rolf does not know himself." Rolf replied.
"You don't think it's the same creature that we had to take flight that devoured the kid?" Natsu assumed.
"It's possible." Double D replied.
"Poor kid..." Fate uttered in sympathy.
Konata then got a good look on the newcomers, "Woah!" she uttered in awe, "A lot of you guys looks so badass!" she complimented, "It reminds me of a lot of characters that I see from the animes that I watched." she described.
"Must everything you say had to be related with anime?" Kagami questioned in disbelief, "Also..." she uttered, "... it's kinda rude to compare these people from fictional characters." she pointed out when she took notice of Tadakuni and for some reason, she can't help but stare it him to which the normal high school boy took notice.
"And it's rude to stare at people, you know?" Tadakuni pointed out with a blank look.
Kagami shook her head, "Sorry about that." she apologized, "It's just that you look familiar." she reasoned when she remembers something, "Aren't you the guy from a viral post of you wearing your sisters' skirt?" she pointed out.
Everyone then turns to Tadakuni in utter shock, astonishment, awe, disbelief and disgust, Tadakuni in response facefaulted in annoyance.
"I'm gonna kill my friends once I see them again." Tadakuni grumbled.
"So, you do admit that you wore your sisters' skirt!" Itsuki exclaimed.
"I was tricked into wearing a skirt!" Tadakuni defended himself, "My friends were wondering what it feels like to wear a skirt, so we all decided to wear it but I'm only one who actually done it and I had no idea that my friends would post in the internet!" he explained in utter annoyance.
"But you still wore it." Ichigo M. insisted.
"And I'm ashamed of it!" Tadakuni admitted, "My sister even beat me up because of it!" he added before taking notice of Amity, Luz, HP and Undine staring at him with stars on their eyes, "What are you girls looking at?" she asked.
"Well..." Luz uttered, "... you wearing you sister's skirt is really surprising but..." she trailed.
"... we kinda want to see it." Amity admitted.
"I am not wearing a skirt!" Tadakuni exclaimed.
Konata then brought out a phone, "I had the image in my phone." she revealed, "Wanna see?" she beckoned.
"Please don't show them that image!" Tadakuni pleaded in panic.
"And why do you even had that image in your phone?" Kagami questioned in disbelief.
Konata rubs the back of her head, "Weird as it's sound but I can't help but admit that he looks good in a skirt." she admitted, "And it kinda turned me on a bit." she added.
"I don't know how to react to that." Tadakuni admitted in shock.
Double D then clapped his hands which got everyone's attention, "Anyway..." he interrupted, "... I believe that all of you are very tired from the whole ordeal, so I suggest that all of you should take a rest." he advised, "There are many empty rooms in this floor, so feel free to choose one for yourself." he beckoned.
Nanoha nodded in response, "Thank you very much." she said in gratitude.
"I really could use a proper sleep." Yuna admitted.
"Also..." Double D added, "... while each rooms are empty at the moment, it has this special ability to change appearance to a certain person's liking." he revealed, "When a person touches the doorknob, the room will magically turn into the exact replica of their respective rooms from their homes." he explained.
Luffy perked up, "Really? Cool!" he complimented, "Let me try." he said before grabbing the doorknob on his right and when he opens it, he is greeted by the sight by a room that is familiar to him, "This is awesome!" he cheered.
The rest followed suit and upon opening the door, the room transformed into the same replica of their rooms from their respective home worlds, much to their awe.
"I feel at home already." Naruto commented.
Tadakuni then opens one door and the empty room transforms into his rather normal-looking room from his home, "Huh? Neat." he complimented.
Amity, Luz, HP and Undine then looks inside, "Huh? Looks normal." Amity commented.
"Yeah, yeah, don't rub it in." Tadakuni grumbled in annoyance.
"So, do you have it?" HP asked.
"Have what?" Tadakuni asked.
"Your sister's skirt." Luz answered.
"I'm not wearing a skirt!" Tadakuni exclaimed.
Double D then clapped his hands once more, "Please get some rest everyone." he beckoned, "Because tomorrow we're going to have a discussion of what our next plans are." he revealed with everyone nodding in response before getting inside their room to rest. Double D then turns to his companions, "You guys should get some rest as well." he advised.
"What about you?" Kevin asked.
"I'm going to have a short discussion with Jason." Double D answered, "Might as well get a heads-up for tomorrow." he reasoned.
Later that night in another world, the bus is seen parked next to a beautiful lake and Jason can be seen sitting on a makeshift table with a map-like holographic screen image of the multiverse presented in front of him.
Double D then came out of the bus and made his way towards their 'leader', "Good evening, Jason." he greeted.
"Evening, D." Jason greeted back, "Can't sleep?" he assumed.
"I'm heading to bed soon but I'm just to get some information for tomorrow's meeting for a heads-up." Double D explained, "How about you?" he asked.
"Fortunately, Watchers like me don't require any sleep." Jason answered, "We're basically awake 24/7." he pointed out.
Double D uttered in acknowledgement before taking notice of the holographic map, "What is this?" he asked.
"It's a map of the multiverse." Jason answered, "It helps me navigate which worlds we should head towards next." he explained, "The worlds with the red marker indicates that it fell victim to the troublesome Watcher's schemes." he pointed out.
"And the blue ones?" Double D asked.
"Worlds that aren't affected by this problem." Jason answered.
Then a beeping sound erupted on the screen as an image of a world zooms in with a bright golden circle on it, "What does this means, Jason?" Double D asked in confusion.
Jason smiled in response, "That means we found a world to explore." he answered.
