The brothers materialized out of the other side of the portal, into what they presumed was the planet Mobius. Luigi started to inspect the area, which was beautiful; he had to admit. Vibrant emerald-green grass, sprawling across hills and slopes of all shapes and sizes... Crystal clear skies, without a cloud in sight... It was remarkable.215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rRsNUENpR
"Woah... So that hand wasn't kidding... are we really here? This place looks so peaceful." 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQ5XcR4Eqq
"Yeah, you got that right. Let's look for those.. strong people we were supposed to recruit. Mario scratched his head. "Actually.. I don't have the slightest idea what these guys are supposed to look like.."215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrNXDV0q28
"Oh, my bad! Mario, Luigi, I forgot something important! " Master Hand's voice echoed in their minds. "These guys are all natives of this Planet, and they always travel in a group. Look for a fast blue hedgehog named Sonic, he's pretty famous around here. If you ask one of the locals about him, I'm sure they'll help you. Now if you excuse me.. I have a lot of work to do."215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XoCdTKLGN
The voice disappeared. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnDeap1f75
"...A fast blue hedgehog.. huh. That's.. interesting. " Mario remarked.215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yfHpmh1zC
"How the heck are we supposed to find a.. " 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0TGVkpbw7
*WHOOSH*215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm154C3iylA
An electric blue ball sped past them, pulling up grass and leaves in its wake. It did a U-turn and wheeled around, stopping right next to the two brothers. It uncurled, revealing itself to be an anthropomorphic blue hedgehog. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEdosl4GW4
"Hey, what's up? Are you two feelin' alright? You look a little pale.." Sonic smirked at the sight of the shocked faces of the plumbers. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZhoVLACIA
(Well, that was easy..) 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItrvMdDTKN
Luigi nervously asked "You.. don't happen to be Sonic, do you? " (Sonic nodded suspiciously) 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOukaU4k69
"How.. do you know my name..? You.. aren't working for Eggman, right!?" Mario and Luigi both vigorously shook their heads 'no' which softened Sonic's expression slightly. "So.. if you aren't working for Eggman.. where are you from? You certainly don't LOOK like you're from here, that's for sure.." 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPKVSh9QoD
"I know this sounds crazy, but we aren't from this world. A giant hand told us to come here to find you. Also.. who's Eggplant?" 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitTbQXoNuu
Sonic burst out laughing, much to Mario's annoyance. "Eggplant! I'm gonna have a field day with this one! Hahaha!!" 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4G850YvFQn
"What's so funny? I just asked you a question!" Sonic stopped laughing and adopted a serious look on his face. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYE7vzdc0vW
"You're.. serious? Geez, I'm sorry.. I thought you were joking. " Mario glared at Sonic, who was attempting to suppress his laughter. "Seriously, though.. that story sounds unbelievable in every possible way. A giant hand? I'm honestly impressed by your story-telling skills.. " 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlQUYOwR7Z
Luigi cut in "It's NOT a story. This is serious business, and we need your help." (Sonic rolled his eyes)
"I'm listening.. "215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlJ1WbZ3sg
"There's a horrible threat to our world, your world, and countless others that we need to stop." Mario had now managed to convince Sonic, who was pressuring the two for more details. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITxetNaga1
"What's this 'threat'? I need more information than that! Is it headed this way?" Mario sighed in relief once he realized he managed to grasp the hedgehog's attention. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyIe1SEdULp
"Not yet.. but he's already corrupted our world. We were sent here to recruit you to our team, as we need all the help we can get.. Crazy Hand is his name, and he looks exactly like his brother Master Hand, who rescued us." Mario explained.215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbVqypbBFz
"Sonic nodded. "I think I'm following that.. So you need help defeating Crazy Hand? Sign me up! I'm always open for some good adventure!" (Mario high-fived Luigi)215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xzfAjJARy
"Matter of fact, I have some friends of mine who would be glad to help you. Follow me!"215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaecAI9sMiz
Sonic joined your team! 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTO6ulcEnuC
Sonic took off running at a lightning-fast pace, much to the plumbers' amazement. They ran after him but couldn't keep up, prompting Sonic to turn around. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpDKSgr7qy
"What's the matter? Can't keep up?" Sonic asked the brothers, who were panting from exhaustion. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkR2g0JcFD
"Hah.. just.. give us a break.." Luigi was slumped over sweating profusely while Mario was catching his breath. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyxYKGVTJp
"Sorry about that! I'm pretty fast.. But you probably already noticed. I'm open to walking if you are.. Mario and Luigi gratefully nodded, and they headed off together. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HBTPpLltb
"You're.. a lot taller than I expected.." Luigi remarked. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuBeUzXKw4
"Well I don't know what you were expecting, but.. " Sonic trailed off. "Hey, I think I see Tails over there!" Sonic pointed to a young fox who was waving at them. He had two tails that trailed behind him. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwe9wl6SNAs
"Hiya, Sonic! Who're these guys? They look pretty cool!" Luigi blushed from the compliment, which amused Tails. He looked to be pretty young; much younger than Sonic, who appeared to be around 15. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWN8kCoQrCW
"These guys are new friends of ours. They're from another world apparently, and they need our help to stop a homicidal maniac from destroying our worlds. " Tails was rightfully alarmed by this information, which was no surprise. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGEKzrD90o
"Gosh, Sonic. I had no idea such a problem existed... Count me in! I'll help you guys with anything technology-related... If that's ok with you...?" Tails looked up hopefully at Mario, who nodded.215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXfApmL8t2
"Of course, you can come along with us! Welcome aboard!" Mario exclaimed. "You... said you're good with... technology?" 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrT2xC4mWih
Tails joined your team!215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkRRxzIQig4
"Oh, my buddy Tails here is a kid genius! He's always been a massive help with all things electronic. which is to say he single-handedly created all the gadgets and gizmos that I use to fight Eggman... He's pretty cool in my book." Tails' eyes sparkled in admiration at Sonic, whom he looked up to. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNsiSEVlbEB
"Wow... so you two must be pretty close friends, huh. (Sonic patted Tails on the head) "You guys are almost like brothers!" 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0TxyqEKId
"I wish I had a brother..." Tails sighed. "Sonic's been the closest thing to family that I've ever had. He found me when I was very little. I don't know what I would have done if it wasn't for him..." Tails sniffed back tears, as he was trying to look 'cool' around his friend. "Don't worry, we completely understand. You don't have anything to worry about with us."215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYURjZ5VAk
The quartet managed to make their way to a rocky bluff, covered in rocks of all shapes and sizes. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitWXpgTOAy
"Hold on... who's that red guy? He looks strong!" Luigi pointed to a crimson echidna, who was punching boulders into dust with his spiked gloves. He seemed to be so focused on the boulders that he didn't notice them. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtL8lls7sFV
"That's Knuckles. He's so strong, he can crush a boulder twice the size of his body!" Tails remarked. "I wish I was as strong as him.. "215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmSr5mi5Cd
Knuckles stopped punching the boulders and approached Luigi, who backed away nervously from the muscular echidna. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42GWLOIXej
"Hey, it's alright, I won't punch ya so don't worry." (To Sonic) "What's up, man? How've ya been? You've definitely made some.. interesting friends here.." (He motioned to Mario and Luigi) 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79iTvDbTqj
Sonic explained the situation once again to Knuckles, who was getting increasingly more and more excited with every word. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1JiUnugf0
"Aww, yeah! Now we're talking! I was looking for an opportunity to test out these bad boys" (he cracked his knuckles) "on something tougher than these boulders.. You can definitely count me in, bud!" 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlZxtmFLP1
Knuckles joined your team! 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiuX3mENVk
"That's great! We could use someone like you on our team, so welcome!" Knuckles gave Mario a fist-bump in appreciation, which was painful because of how strong his fists were. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3gFX9l04E
The group continued onward, until they reached a small cave. They were then approached by a feminine pink hedgehog wearing a red dress and carrying a large hammer. She immediately ran over to Sonic and gave him a hug, much to his embarrassment.215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyunsez6lN
"Oh geez.. Amy, how many times have I told you not to hug me like that? You're embarrassing me!" Amy immediately released Sonic from his hug, apologizing profusely. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNo5aiungvF
"Oh, I'm sorry, Sonic.. it's good to see you guys all here! So, who're the new guys? They look pretty nice. "
After explaining the situation for the 4th time, Sonic was beginning to question if Deja Vu was actually a thing. "So.. Do you want to join us?"215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejgkFumWZj
"Well... I don't like to fight, but.. sure! I'll help you guys out!" 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6r4J9mldw8
Amy joined your team! 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgv52J3klBp
"Who's she, Knuckles?" Mario asked.215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzIm4VdSIk
"She's a tough one, despite her cute appearance.. trust me, don't ever mess with Sonic or you'll be bludgeoned by her hammer in no time.. Believe me, it's happened before." Luigi had a horrified look on his face as he imagined being slugged by the massive weapon she was lugging behind her.215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhbG1rQpAn
"Oh, yeah! I saw Blaze and Shadow arguing with each other again.. they really need to stop, it's getting old." 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡud8bWqEVUp
"Umm... sorry to interrupt, but who are those two?" Luigi was still rather freaked out about Amy, who was surprisingly intimidating. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtRf9TqW93
Amy cut in."Oh, I can tell you about them! Blaze... She's kind of a firebrand, you know. She has quite a nasty temper if you mess with her, so don't. She can also use fire to her advantage, which means stay out of her way when she's angry to avoid being burned to a crisp. Shadow, well... He's really nice once you get to know him, but he can be kind of a jerk sometimes... Just try to stay out of his business and he'll accept you sooner or later."
"Good to know. Where are they? I think they could be good company for us... " Mario remarked.
"Last I checked, they were around here somewhere... Lessee..." (Amy spotted them) "Oh, speak of the devil! HEY! Shadow, Blaze, come over here!" 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8aQqrH62r8
The two stopped arguing once they heard Amy's voice, (which made sense) and they met up with the others. Shadow was a black and red hedgehog, and blaze was a Lavender cat. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwkz6qxqjP
"Ugh.. who the hell are they, Sonic? They look like total pushovers." (Blaze slugged Shadow) 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksi9IZQm7y
"Don't talk like that to them! You don't even know them!" (To Mario and Luigi) Sorry about him. He got into a bit of an argument with me.. So he's just being rude for the hell of it. I'm Blaze, nice to meet you. This is Shadow. "215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12rfttT6Gs
"You don't have to introduce me! I can do it myself. Ugh.. anyway, don't get in my way, and you'll be fine. Get in my way, and I'll make sure you regret it. "215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6eB56s3cP
Sonic slapped Shadow on the back, who glared at him. "Aww, don't be like that, Shadow! These guys are gonna help us!" 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdX9OBc2Ij
"........(Turns to everyone else) "....You're buying this?" 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzslPxhNQQe
"Oh, stop it Shadow.. look. A dangerous new enemy is threatening to conquer our world and many others, plus the world these two came from. We're doing this for everyone's sake.." Amy scolded.215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHip3VN8qe
"..?! A new enemy?! WHY didn't you tell me sooner?!" (To Mario) "I'm sorry I acted so horribly to you.. please.. forgive me. " 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkdV4bU0Bz
Shadow joined your team! 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLw0LKp3RYC
Blaze joined your team! 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6UqCSycW1
"Ah, no problem! It's understandable you'd be confused about this situation.. Me and my brother here will try to stay out of your way." 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlKeVtIq7M
A while later...215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nzftmvAHY
Blaze started a fire, as it was beginning to get dark outside. Everyone crowded around the fire for warmth. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDLWLqi2tO
"So... You are from another world? What's it like? Blaze looked intrigued by Mario's previous statement. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLyNyURJFg
"Come to think of it, you never tell me what your world is like.. I kinda want to know, I mean, if you don't mind." Sonic was nervous, as he had never known anyone from another world than his own. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXUq7jwWYJ
"Well.. my world is pretty different.. Mushrooms.. everywhere, strange blocks in the sky, and don't forget Bowser.. he's a menace to society. Trust me, once you visit my world, you'll get tired of mushrooms REAL fast. " 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30tojA75i3
"Mushrooms..? You're serious?" (Luigi nodded) "Geez.. didn't expect that." Tails joked. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWW3TNhVSzJ
"What kinda powers do ya have? Do ya punch through metal with your bare fists?" Knuckles laughed heartily. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8TkHTabuw
"No.. we use power-ups.. they're basically like temporary abilities that we can acquire after using certain types of objects. If I touch a fire flower for example, I can shoot fireballs out of my hands.215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FU3eqdoy5
"That's awesome! Maybe I could teach you a thing or two about using fire.. you might need it, in the journey ahead." Said Blaze. 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTbEatoi1T
"That sounds good. We'd like that. Right Luigi? Luigi?" Mario tapped Luigi on the shoulder, but he was fast asleep. (Everyone laughed) 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVEgbTPi5U
(Tails yawned) "Ahh.. it's getting late. We should probably rest for tomorrow.. goodnight, guys!" 215Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQYjdqPnBV
"Goodnight!"
