A/N: Interesting greetings there and XYGirl2019 is here, and I would like to thank everyone that read the 19th chapter of the Multiverse Adventures While Riding On A Bus.
Anyway, enough chit-chat and let's do a dumpster dive with this story!
Disclaimer: With the exception of several OCs and concepts, I don't own anything.
It's been ten hours since the Multiverse Rescuers, a name which is coined by Ed the Lump himself, arrives in the island of Elsaragozademontelban where the Rescuers managed to find a number of figures and each group brought them back to their main base operation.
The figures that were rescued alongside several members of the Multiverse Rescuers found themselves reuniting with the people they know of such as Aelita Schaeffer reuniting with Jeremie Belpois, Odd Della Robbia, Ulrich Stern, William Dunbar & Yumi Ishiyama, Daisuke "Davis" Motomiya reuniting with Hikari Yagami, Iori "Cody" Hida, Ken Ichijouji, Miyako "Yolei" Inoue & Takeru "T.K." Takaishi, Dan Kusou reuniting with Ace Grit, Alice Gehabich, Baron Leltoy, Chouji "Marucho" Marukura, Fabia Sheen, Julie Makimoto, Mira Fermin, Ren Krawler, Runo Misaki & Shun Kazami, Monkey D. Luffy reuniting with Chopper Tony Tony, Franky, Nami, Robin Nico, Sanji Vinsmoke, Usopp & Zoro Roronoa and Ichigo Kurosaki reuniting with Kon, Orihime Inoue, Renji Abarai, Rukia Kuchiki, Uryuu Ishida & Yasutora "Chad" Sado while Amy Rose, Constable Barton, Cream the Rabbit, Emmy Altava, Inspector Chelmey, Inspector Clamp Grosky, Knuckles the Echidna, Link, Miles "Tails" Prowers, Professor Hershel Layton and Sonic the Hedgehog introduced themselves to everyone.
And the still unconscious Buggy the Clown and Dr. Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik were taken to the infirmary.
Currently the bus is parked in a deep and narrow valley between two canyons in a desert that is located somewhere in the island of Elsaragozademontelban, and after an hour of a break, the members of the Multiverse Rescuers sets off again to find more people to save.
Sitting on a rock outside the bus, Tsukasa Hiiragi and Miyuki Takara are seen having a conversation while marvelling around the area.
"I had to admit..." Tsukasa uttered out loud, "... this place is really beautiful." she commented.
Miyuki nodded, "Yeah." she replied in agreement, "It's not as colorful as the forests in this island but this place is remarkable on it's own." she stated.
Then Kagami Hiiragi pops her head out from the doors of the bus, "Hey, you two!" she called out which got the two girls' attentions, "What are you two doing out here?" she questioned, "Get inside!" she beckoned, "It's dangerous!" she pointed out.
"Onee-chan?" Tsukasa uttered.
"Hello, Kagami-san." Miyuki greeted, "Don't worry." she reassured, "This part of the valley is safe." she pointed out, "And Jason-san is with us." she added.
"Jason?" Kagami questioned before looking around, "I don't see him anywhere." she said, "Nor even his shadow." she added.
"Jason-san is currently underneath the bus and doing some repairs." Tsukasa replied.
Kagami then steps out of the bus and heard humming noises from below alongside a can of juice rolling out from it, confirming that the divine being is working underneath the bus.
"I see." Kagami uttered in acknowledgement, "Still..." she trailed, "... with how unpredictable our current situation is right now, I don't think it's right to go out like this!" she reasoned.
"Sorry, onee-chan." Tsukasa apologized, "But we're kinda curious what this part of the island looks like." she reasoned.
"And with how everyone is getting rather rowdy inside, I think it's best that we get out of the bus once in a while." Miyuki added.
Kagami sighed, "I guess so." she conceded.
Suddenly the girls heard some footsteps which made them flinched, they slowly turns around to see five figures walking towards them.
The first figure is a young man with a tall stature and a fair complexion, he had a long wavy blue hair and he had green-colored eyes. He wears an oranged high-collared jacket with black linings, yellowish-orange fur and brown shoulder patches over a black leather shirt with a white collar line and accents, he wears black leather pants with white flaming designs and yellow chains held by a black belt, he wears a pair of brown high boots and a pair of black fingerless gloves.

He also carries a large brown leather satchel. This is Luke Triton.

She wears a white strapless two-layered dress with a red collar line and a slit side, the first layer a gold & red tribal-designed accent and the second later had grayish-white tribal designs. On her head is a golden-colored laurel crown and around her neck is a golden-colored choker & a golden-colored sun-like necklace, and around her waist is a pair of brown straps held by a red & gold shield-shaped circle and is adorned by numerous golden-colored accessories. On her right arms, she wears a golden-colored arm brace & a golden-colored gauntlet with rings and on her left arm, she wears a golden-colored arm gauntlet with a feather-like designs.

The fourth figure is young boy with a petite appearance and a fair complexion, he had a large blue-colored eyes and a fluffy brown hair with a small cowlick poking out from the back. He wears a chiton decorated with red and gold hems along the bottom which is fastened on the shoulder by a golden fibula with a red gem in the center. He wears the outfit with a brown belt lined with silver and a gold-triangular buckle on his waist. He also wears navy blue tights beneath his chiton and wears a pair of bronze and gold cuffs around his forearms, and singular gold rings on his upper left arm and right thigh. His brown sandals are decorated with crossing beige bands and are edged at the top with white wool. He had a pair of white-colored wings behind his back. This is Pit.
The fifth figure is a young man with a tall stature and a fair complexion, he had a long messy-spiky blonde hair and wears a red mask with black sockets and blue-colored irises. He wears a red leather coat that with a white interior and tattered ends and is decorated by black feathers, puffy shoulders, blue rectangular-shaped buttons, yellow bulky arm braces and red tattered cuffs with flaming designs. Underneath the coat is a brown-high collared uniform with white & yellow straps, white frills and white linings, he wears a brown leather pants held by a yellow bulky belt with a snake-like leg brace wrapped around his left upper thigh, he wears a pair of brown boots with white fur and orange flame designs and wears a pair of white gloves. This is Spectra Phantom.
"Hello there." Palutena greeted with a smile.
"KYAAAAAAAAAAH!" Kagami responded with a scream and much to everyone's surprise and bewilderment, the older Hiiragi sister 'magically' brought out an umbrella and began to swing it out around rather violently, "Get away, get away, get away!" she demanded.
"Kagami-san!" Miyuki squawked.
"Onee-chan, please calm down!" Tsukasa pleaded.
"Jason, Jason!" Kagami called out, "Help us!" she shrilled.
"This goes here..." the voice of Jason was heard underneath the bus, "... ack!" he yelped, "I did it wrong." he uttered to himself.
"What the heck are you doing down there?!" Kagami demanded in disbelief, "Come out here and help us!" she pleaded, "Are you wearing headphones?!" she assumed.
Luke then bravely steps forward, "Stop, stop!" he shouted, "We're sorry for appearing so suddenly but we meant you no harm!" he reassured.
"Yeah." Gus uttered in agreement, "We're just wondering if you girls can help us out or you're in the same situation as we are." he stated.
Tsukasa quickly grabbed her older sister's shoulders, "Onee-chan!" she shouted before slapping her silly on the right cheek, "Get a hold of yourself!" she advised.
This effectively calm down Kagami, "Thank you, Tsukasa." she expressed in gratitude while sporting a blank look, "I needed that." she admitted while rubbing her right cheek.
"Wow!" Pit uttered in awe, "Who knew slapping someone on the face will really calm a person down." he stated.
"I think that depends on the person." Spectra said.
Kagami sighed before turning to the newcomers, "Sorry about that." she apologized, "I've been in a lot of stress ever since my friends and I were taken away from our world." she explained.
"No worries." Palutena reassured, "I think we all feel the same way." she stated.
After introducing themselves to each other, Miyuki then proceeds to explain to them about the current state of the multiverse and their current mission.
"So, your group came to this island to save us?" Luke concluded with a smile, "Thank you very much." he expressed in gratitude.
"And here I thought that we'll never get out of this place." Gus admitted with a grin.
"Still..." Spectra uttered, "... I find it really concerning that there is someone out there capable of creating trouble to this extent." he voiced out, "I really hope my friends are doing well to wherever they are out now." he expressed in concern.
"Me, too." Palutena said in agreement.
"Don't worry." Miyuki reassured, "My friends are doing their best to save everyone affected by this problem." she declared in determination.
"It will take a while though." Kagami admitted, "But like what Miyuki-san said..." she uttered, "... our friends doing our best to make things right." she encouraged.
"So, what should we do now?" Pit asked.
Before Miyuki nor Kagami could utter a reply, they were interrupted by a voice, "Wooh!" it hollered, "Finally got this done!" it exclaimed in relief.
Everyone then turns around to see Jason the Watcher coming out from underneath the bus, he stood up while dusting himself, he took off his earphones before turning around to see Miyuki and the Hiiragi twins with the new arrivals, and his eyes widen upon taking notice of Palutena and Pit.
"You two are..." Jason trailed in surprise.
"Lady Palutena?" Pit uttered out loud, "Do you feel that power coming from that guy?" he asked.
Palutena nodded, "Indeed." she replied in confirmation, "Looks like we found someone that is similar to us." she stated.
"What are you two talking about?" Tsukasa asked in confusion.
Palutena then steps forward, "Greeting my fellow divine being." she greeted towards Jason, "My name is Palutena." she introduced herself, "And I'm the Goddess of Light." she revealed.
"WHAAAT?!" Miyuki, Kagami, Tsukasa, Spectra, Gus and Luke screamed in shock.
"Wait..." Pit uttered in suprise, "... you guys don't know that?" he questioned.
Meanwhile in a landscape that looks similar to the Rainbow Valley Conservation Reserve which is located somewhere in the island of Elsaragozademontelban and right behind a large boulder, Eddy the Scammer, Gingka Hagane, Konata Izumi, Amity Blight and Luz Noceda peek their heads out while observing the area.
"It's quiet." Eddy uttered out loud before looking to the left, "Too quiet." he furthered before turning to his right, "I'm getting the heebie jeebies!" he exclaimed in panic.
"Yeah." Konata uttered in agreement, "Feels like something big will come out and eat us alive." she described.
"You've been watching a lot of movies, Konata." Gingka admonished.
"Anime, my normie friend." Konata corrected, "Anime." she repeated.
"Who are you calling a normie?" Gingka demanded in annoyance.
"Can we really find lost people here?" Amity questioned, "Not that I doubt Jason's findings..." she clarified, "... but this area is way to remote for any person to go around." she reasoned.
"I guess so." Luz acknowledged, "But we won't know unless we try and look around." she beckoned.
"The only thing we can confirm that if there are people here is when we hear some..." Eddy trailed when he is interrupted by a loud collective 'AAAAAAAAHHHS' from the distance, "... screams." he concluded with a surprised look.
Everyone then looks around to find where the screams are coming from and upon looking to their right, they saw five figures getting chased by a group of creatures.
The first figure is a lavender-furred, anthropomorphic female cat with golden-colored eyes, a small black nose, and a white-furred muzzle. She has triangular-shaped ears with peach-colored canals on top of her head, two medium-length eyelashes on each side of her eyes, and a long tail with the end frayed and violet. Her fur is longer on each side of her head and sweeps slightly upwards. She has four plumes of hair with violet tips done up in a high ponytail with a red hair tie.

The creatures chasing after them are a group of muscular-looking anthropomorphic unicorns wearing speedos and carries swords & shields.
"Wow..." Eddy uttered in awe, "Guess we're finally moving on from encountering monkeys." he commented.
"We can gawk on how ridiculous those creatures are later..." Amity interrupted, "... but right now, we need to help those guys!" she pointed out.
Luz nodded, "Then let's go!" she beckoned.
