Astro Boy wasn't exactly lucky when it came to whom he had ended up stranded on a planet with. Between his own needs of maintaining his power cells and the harsh environment he was stuck in threatening to cut his skin, he also had to deal with Shao Khan and Sindel… strangely acting like a couple that were still in the honeymoon phase.

The 18+ part, specifically.

Thankfully, after their last romp, they had finally decided to become productive again.

"Blast it! This environment does not allow me use of my abilities to summon portals!"

Well, as productive as they could be in their current situation.

"Unfortunately, it seems that this planet is uninhabited aside from the plants." Sindel commented, "But perhaps that is a good thing. We can protect the crystal far more easily if we don't have to worry about hostile animals."

"It's not the animals I'm worried about." Shao Khan said, "And fortunately, it's not the robot there either. There is a strange energy I am sensing, and it is all around us."

"Hey! I think I found a cave! We can hole up in there!" Astro Boy called from the sky.


"Well, at least it's more like home here." Red commented as he rode Charizard to the nearest city the group could find.

"Right. As long as you ignore the giant plants, insects, and the fact that they're like Venom and Eddie Brock."

"No need to worry Tai Kamiya. These symbiotic animals seem to be docile." Clank stated, "As long as we do not agitate them, they will not attack us."

"Well, hopefully we can get a ship. Or at least the parts for one." Ratchet commented, "Assuming that they accept us, since we're… y'know. Not native to the planet."

"We're also operating on the assumption that they're friendly to begin with." Jak pointed out, "For all we know, this is a gladiator planet."

"If it were, I'm pretty sure we'd have been captured by now." Agumon pointed out.

"GAH!" The group turned to see Red and Charizard was now in a net above the ground.

"Alright boys! We got one for the arena! Looks like a newbie! Let's see how well these two fight!" A new fighter said.

"Hey! Let our friend go!"

"More for the arena. Good. Let's see how well you do in our containment field!" He pushed a button as several pods emerged from the ground and shocked the group.

The hunter leaned down, "You can't escape Onil. I'm the best hunter here! HAHAHAHA!"

"Hey boss! They have some sort of crystal with them! What should we do with it?"

"Let's take it! We can sell it and make a fortune!"


"Yep. Definitely a Black Hole. We're not getting out of here anytime soon." Booster said, "The damn thing won't even let me look up anything going on in the future! Or even the past!"

"Great. So I'm stuck here with you and the discount Sentinel over there?" Cable asked as he gestured to the Terminator.

"I thought that you'd be a bit more happy about a weak sentinel." Flash pointed out.

"Whatever. Any ways of getting away from that damn thing?"

"I don't know. Maybe you could use your powers to get us far enough away from it so that we can start using our time powers?- Oh wait. We can't. We're surrounded by those things." Booster sighed, "This is so going to look bad for my rep."

"You hang out with us. You don't have a rep."

"Whatever. Barry! Any luck with your powers?"

"Not really. I'm still generating the Speed Force, so that's good news. But I can't get into it and that's about all that's happening. At least I'm still faster than the guys back at base… That used to be back at base…"


"You find anything in this wreck?"

"It's a junkyard. Even if I did find something, it probably wouldn't do much."

"Well keep looking over there. I'm going to keep searching." Erza called.

Tracer sighed. They had been at this for hours. How Erza could keep this up despite how hopeless the situation was was beyond her, but she still had to try.

"Shadow, have you found anything?"

"Unfortunately, it was this." Shadow showed off the crystal he had found, "I have no idea what it's for, but it's probably something important."

"Better hang onto it." Erza sighed, "At least it doesn't look cursed. But just in case… Tracer! Hang onto this!" She tossed the crystal to the agent, who easily caught it.

"Good call. If it is cursed, then Tracer can just use her Recall to jump back to before she was cursed."

"Actually, I'm hoping that it is cursed, but it's some sort of fanservice thing. I'll be honest, I'm sick of being the fanservicer. Instead of the one who gets to enjoy the fanservice." She said.

"Still won't stop a recall. I'll go back to searching for communications or maybe even civilization." Shadow dashed off.


"Shelter does not seem to be an option." Shredder noted.

"Give me a few more shots!" Zoro grunted, "I'll bring one of these things down eventually!"

"Zoro, give up. You're not going to cut those things down anytime soon." Venom muttered as he ate his food, "At least this place has radishes so we won't go hungry…"

"I am more concerned about what kinds of wildlife would cause the trees to evolve in such a way…"

"I hate it when he has a point." Shredder commented, "But Bane is right. We should be on the lookout for any hostile wildlife."

*CRACK!*

"Ha ha! I told you I'd get it cut eventually!" Zoro boasted.

"Impressive." Bane noted.

"Yeah, that's great genius…" Venom grumbled while Zoro was laughing and singing his own praises, "But how the hell are we supposed to turn it into a shelter at this point?"

"I'm the absolute bes-" Zoro stopped suddenly, looking at the tree he had managed to cut down. It had taken literally all of his might just to cut the damn thing. To try to cut it into more manageable pieces for shelter and fire would be…

"Ungh huggh huu…" Zoro started bawling incoherently.

"Great. Now he's broken." Venom muttered, "We're not dealing with this. We'll scout for some raw vegetables. Maybe some food will do us good."
