SZW “So, is everyone ready?” Goku asked in a stilted tone like he was reading from a script.“YES!” Everyone responds similarly. Hell 13 Freeza looked at the screen. “What are you guys doing?” SZW “We’ve compiled a list of important tips. I call it, ‘the Don’ts of Crossovers’.” Krillan whispered to Goku. “Aren’t these things usually called DO’s and don’t’s?” “Yeah, but we’re talking about crossovers here. Can you think of anything that could be a do?(…) OK. Tip 1 is, do not place radically different characters together for no reason.” Goku and Yamucha step out. GOKU: Hi there. I’m Goku the Saiya-jin. YAMUCHA: I’m Bubbles the Powerpuff girl….. Hey! How come he gets to be himself? “Cause it was my idea. The next thing, is do not change the abilities and strengths of characters so they can compete together.” Vegeta and Krillan walk out. Krillan hits Vegeta. VEGETA: OW! Wow. I can't believe I was beaten up by Scooby-Doo. “Thanks for being such a sport about it Vegeta. And the third don’t is do not try to make characters from very different worlds suddenly hail from the same one.” Goku and Krillan walk out. GOKU: Hello, I am Vash the Stampede. I come from a desert planet where humanity is stranded after Earth was ruined. I have lived on this planet my whole life. KRILLAN: I’m Mega Man Vollnut. I am from an Earth where the ice caps have melted and the planet is flooded. I also have never left this planet. BOTH: Hey! I’ve seen you before! Hell 13 Freeza shook his head. “I think I’ll send you back to the story now, rather than see what else you got.” He pushes the send button. SZW The light starts flashing. Yamucha shouted. “We got Fanfic Sign!!!!” Goku looked dejected. “But I wasn’t done yet!” Guitar twang during door sequence 7 (dog bone opening) 6 (it's a wall. Vegeta blasts it.) 5 (Krillin is thrown head first at a window, like a baseball) 4 (drawbridge comes down) 3 (door swings open) 2 (Dragon scuptured door lifts) 1 (hatch opens) GOKU: But I had more planned…. KRILLAN: Aw, drop it. >Mako Crossover Chapter 7 >Revenge VEGETA: Sounds like a plan. >By Chris Homer >In this section, it will be Tifa's group mainly, but also Red's group. KRILLAN: I guess the author doesn’t think much of surprise plot shifts. _____________________________________________________________________ >Chun-Li and Tifa were running in quick bursts, unsure of where the >figures went. YAMUCHA: So they were basically running in circles? GOKU: Oh yeah, everyone’s screwed. >They went of where they were in Midgar, so had to hurry. If this Bison >is as evil as Chun-Li made him out to be, then there is no question what >he might do with Reeve and Elymra, KRILLAN: Sure there is. There's a lot of ways to kill people. VEGETA: And I know them all. >not to mention a four year old girl. YAMUCHA: Man, that whole statement was confusing. GOKU: I know. I guess the author changed it to someone’s thought processes at some point. >Tiredly, the other girls, lagging behind, had complained about why they were >woken up and chasing some 'ghosts' as Yuffie put it. VEGETA: Foreshadowing, folks! KRILLAN: For what? VEGETA: Imminent death. >But the two older girls were more determined, and despite some attempts of >strangling Yuffie and Sakura ALL: YEAAHH! >(Misty had wisely stayed quiet), they were all on their feet, searching >for Bison. The early rays of dawn had come out and light cleared the view, >making the girls realise how little they KRILLAN: Knew. >slept last night. Even Misty, who had a sleeping bag, seemed to have bags >around her eyes. >However, the two leading girls were obviously determined. Chun-Li had a score >to settle whilst Tifa KRILLAN: I’d really like to know where this author is from. I’ve never seen a language pattern like this. >wouldn't let any harm come to Marlene, Barret would never forgive her if >something happened to his little girl. >The two had quickly explained what was going on and were heading to the Kalm >area. GOKU: Because it would be more peaceful. >They decided to ask people of any suscipious characters. GOKU (person): Seen one? I’m talking to a bunch right now? >Well, Tifa and Chun asked, the others tried to get some sleep. >After an hour of asking, "Have you seen some suspicious characters..... >have you seen a young girl, a mid-thirties man and woman both leave the >area.......", YAMUCHA: They had all lost their voices. >it seemed like a hopeless situation, but then Tifa struck gold with the >innkeeper. KRILLAN: So she took time out of her search to go digging? YAMUCHA: Must not be all that optimistic. >"Listen, sir, have you seen some strange figures, or three of our friends, >a 4 year old girls and a man and woman leave this area last night?" she >asked. >"Well, didn't see, but......" he started. VEGETA: He felt their ki. >"But....." she asked. The innkeeper was nervous, not only because of >what happened, but because the beautiful woman in front of him was just >inches away and he started to sweat. YAMUCHA (innkeeper): Must…cover….eyes. >"....Well, three people fitting the last description have been here for a >few days now. But suddenly, last night, when I went to check upon everyone, >they were gone.....wthout paying last night's fee, I tell you....." VEGETA (innkeeper): I’ll SUE!! >"Forget about the god damned fee, we need to know where they went!" she >said. KRILLAN: Tifa’s channeling Barret. >"I don't know! All I know is that they are gone, and I haven't got a clue >where they went or for that matter who they went with!" he said. VEGETA (innkeeper): Or when I’m gonna get paid! >Tifa calmed down slightly and left the inn, the innkeeper breathing a sigh >of relief. _____________________________________________________________________ >"Chun, they were here! However, I don't know where they went!" Tifa said. >"Looks like we'll have to go on instinct, we'll keep on going east....." >she said. YAMUCHA: So they’re gonna just go in some random direction? >"Yeah, too bad Red isn't with us....." Yuffie said. KRILLAN: Take Purple. >"Red, whose Red?" Misty asked. GOKU: My Red! >"One of our friends......well, he's a friend, but not a human friend, >he's a legendary beast of Cosmo Canyon." Tifa said. >"Beast?" squealed Sakura, not overly fond of the word. YAMUCHA: She doesn’t like Disney movies. >"Don't worry, I trust him with my life, along with my other friends. He is >calm and friendly, VEGETA: He just enjoys the taste of human flesh. >and has as much intelligence as you or I, probably more." Tifa said. VEGETA: Well, consider who’s she’s comparing Red to. KRILLAN: Yeah, that rock they just passed had more intelligence than them >Sakura didn't look convinced, but the others looked satisfied. After all, >it looked like everyone here is after the same thing. YAMUCHA: Its… (all look at him) money…What? >"He could have traced the scent, but it looks like we have to rely on >footwork." Yuffie said. "Hey, we are near the Chocobo Farm! GOKU: How convienient… >You've got the Lure materia as well, maybe we can get a few chocobos to >help us get faster!" >"We kept our blue, black, green and gold chocobos at the Farm anyway, we >could just ask Bill to lend them us." Tifa said. KRILLAN: I don’t think the chocobos want to borrow the girls. >"Chocobo? What's that?" Misty asked. >Tifa was about to explain, when they heard a sound, a sound, they didn't >like. KRILLAN: And so they decided to take a hike. GOKU: And Misty wished he had her bike. VEGETA: This fic has nothing that I’d LIKE! YAMUCHA: What was that? GOKU: That sounded like the beginning of a poem. >It sound like a deep croaking. >"What's that noise?" Sakura asked. GOKU: I’d guess a frog. >Tifa shook her head. "I don't know, but I don't like it. Come on." she said, running to the trace of the sound. KRILLAN: Yes, I always run after what I don’t like. The hell? >Chun followed, Yuffie behind her, with Sakura and Misty more apprehensive of >meeting whatever made that noise. YAMUCHA: So those two have the brains for the moment? _____________________________________________________________________ >The noise was made by a flying creature, never seen before by Tifa or Yuffie. >It was a bat like creature GOKU: Awwww... I was wrong. KRILLAN: I…AM…BATMAN! >but with bird like wings and talons. It was a creature of the night, but it >seemed all right in the early daylight as well. It was swooping over a small >figure, breathing quickly, but looked out of it. YAMUCHA: Flying while out of it, very dangerous. >Tifa ran and looked at horror at the creature, circling the prey. Tifa screamed >when she saw what the prey was. >It was a young girl. VEGETA: Hands up, does ANYONE not know who that is? >"MARLENE!!!!" she screamed, angrier than ever before. The bird creature heard >the scream and saw them. Tifa showed no fear as she pulled out a materia. >"JUDGEMENT BOLT!" >The old man came upon a cliff. YAMUCHA: Ewwww…. >The others (except for Yuffie) were a bit stunned. Tifa had shown them how to >use basic materia, but this was way above expectations. The old man blasted a >thunderbolt onto the creature, directing its impact onto it, and avoiding >Marlene, which during this, Yuffie had rolled under the beast, grabbed Marlene >and scooted off. KRILLAN (Ramuh): Darn it, I missed the ninja. >After the spell was finished, the creature screamed, and fell slightly, but not >too much. It screeched again, but this time, it seemed directed at the group. >The screech attack had most of the group on their knees, GOKU: For they were in awe of the sounds. >the pain in their heads was excruitating. VEGETA: Funny, I feel that way too. >All except Yuffie had fallen, who wisely had a ribbon, which made abnormal >attacks such as this inaccurate. GOKU: WHAT THE HELL!? Does she have it tied over her ears or something? >Her shuriken was drew out and she aimed at it with deadly accuracy. >It was a good job that Marlene had passed out otherwise she would have screamed >at the sight of VEGETA: Yuffie. >red and black blood spilled from the creatures stomach. But Yuffie wasn't done >yet. >"ALL CREATION!" >The screeching had stopped and everyone except Tifa were in awe as giant >pulsating rays emitted from her weapon, affecting the monmster, KRILLAN: Is that like a mobster? >its wound getting worse and its energy getting sapped. >Now, the others had gained more confidence. Misty boldly stepped up. "Let me try >something!" she asked, as she grabbed two of her pokeballs. >"Starmie, Staryu, go!" she screamed, hoping for once, Psyduck didn't pop out. GOKU: Sure it won’t. >She got her wish as the two starfish pokemon emerged. >"Starmie, Staryu, double tackle!" she shouted. The two starfish pokemon whirled >in the air like boomerangs, KRILLAN: I imagine it’d be more like a pair of stars. >striking their many edges into the already opened wound of this creature. >Misty tried hard not to gag, as her two pokemon returned and readied themselves >for another attack. VEGETA: Man, these people are wimps. >The creature realised it was in trouble and had to be rid of these things >quickly. It's wings flapped extremely hard as a powerful gust threatened to >blow them away. KRILLAN: I don’t think the gust was caused by the wings. YAMUCHA (monster): (farting sound) Excuse me. >However, the quickness of Sakura and Chun-Li saved the day. >They were also getting blown away, but they used the gust to their advantage. >The gust allowed them to jump, extremely high, as they powered up their chi at >the same time. >GOKU: Kaaaaaa… >The creature looked on as two young women were powering up their fireball attacks. KRILLAN: Not too bright, is it? >"HA-DO-KEN!" >"KIKOKEN!" >The two blue fireballs in mid-air struck the creature head on. VEGETA: That wouldn’t do much, we just proved the monster has no brain! >Both Yuffie and Tifa were impressed just by that, but what Chun-Li was about to do, defied both their expections, along with gravity. GOKU: Um, Vegeta, what is this ‘gravity’? VEGETA: It’s what we train under. >After hitting the fireball, Chun was still hgh YAMUCHA: It’s the good stuff, man! >in the air. Sakura was on the way down, but Chun still had a plan. She hadn't >used this move in a while, because it was hard to time perfectly and on a >smaller target, but this time, she felt that it could be the death move. KRILLAN: I wonder if that means suicide. >She turned in mid-air, using the gust attack to her advantage, and defied >gravity with a cry of "SPINNING BIRD KICK!" GOKU (Han Fu): Angry crow takes flight! >What Tifa saw was a woman, not much older than herself, in mid-air, turn >upside down, and twirl like a helicopter, her kicks striking the creatures >....1...2.....6 times. KRILLAN: What, Tifa can’t count? >She then reverted upright and landed softly. >The creature wasn't so lucky. It was half-unconscious and hadn't got the >energy to fly. Tifa looked in awe at the young police officer. "That was >amazing!" she said. >"Thank you!" she said, but tugged her as the creature was stirring. GOKU:… a stew for dinner. >Tifa raised her fist. "Now, it's my turn to impress you!" she said, >running to the creature. Chun-Li watched as Tifa's own chi was gathering >around her. First was her fists striking donwards into the creatures open >wound, the blows sounded like they could crack stone. YAMUCHA: Isn’t this overkill? >Chun then saw Tifa go into a version of the flash kick, one foot on the >stomach as her other foot hit it in the head. She landed perfectly on her >feet and then gathered up her chi. KRILLAN: It kept running off. >Her next move was aided by water power, which Misty would have given everything to learn, as the sweep kick landed. Then Chun-Li saw Tifa spin behind it. Her chi was coming much stronger know. Then, somehow, she lifted the monster and slammed it hard. GOKU: Not bad. So far she hasn’t hit ‘MISS’ yet. >Before Chun could question her strength, she went into a version of the Dragon >Punch, again, aided by water power. She grabbed it neck and flipped over it, >smashing it in the process. >Tifa knelt by it, her fist powering up for the final blow. The creature looked >so pathetic and sorry, it was in its death theores. VEGETA: Aw, hell no! Finish it! >However, it had tried to kill a 4 year old girl. She felt no pity. KRILLAN: Just like the author. >It connected, sending it back to hell where it came from. >Tifa stood up as the rotting carcass passed away. GOKU: So the dead body died? >She was a bit tired, but not worse for wear. Chun-Li and Sakura were clapping, >Misty looked gob-smacked YAMUCHA: I'm really starting to hate that word. >whilst Yuffie had an amused look. >"The ultimate ass-kicker!" she laughed. >Tifa smiled, but then remembered Marlene. >"Marlene!!!" she shouted, but Yuffie hushed. KRILLAN: Oh good, Yuffie shut up. >"She alright." And Yuffie showed the trembling, yet, sleeping figure of the >young girl. >"O.K......O.k." Tifa relaxed, as she and Chun-Li looked at each other. >"THAT WAS AWESOME!" both of them said at the same time. Sakura giggled. >"You defied gravity with those moves!" Tifa said. >"You defied power with those moves!" Chun-Li said. GOKU: You defy intelligence with this fic! KRILLAN: And decency! >Misty by now was also joining in, wondering how Tifa learned the water based >attacks, begging her to teach her. Of course, Tifa momentarilly refused, as >they had a mission to carry out. >Yuffie picked up Marlene and Misty lent Yuffie her sleeping bag, so Marlene >could be wrapped in it. GOKU: They were too cheap to get Barret a REAL present. >"It looks like we'd better get to the farm and fast." Tifa said, and prayed >that Marlene hadn't been hurt in any way. YAMUCHA: Um, why don’t you check? >The excitement over, they resumed their journey. _____________________________________________________________________ >Meowth was always a solitary creature. His ability to speak English surprised >many, but was a loner. He was his own trainer, his two 'pets' as he called them, >were only with him because they could do things that he couldn't because of >their obvious size advantage. KRILLAN: Yeah! They could get on carnival rides! >They treated him fairly well, but always got the blunt of their failed attempts >of taking Pikachu. >However, he was really comforted by the young girl he was on the shoulder of. >Unlike Jessie and James, GOKU: She wasn’t a moron. VEGETA: Be the first one we'd see who wasn't! >she displayed a great deal of aura and intelligence, and overwhelming goodness, >much like the girl back in his world who treated him when he was ill. VEGETA: Does anyone remember that? GOKU: Nope. >He realised that Jessie and James were not with him, but he didn't care. He >knew that something was wrong here, and he felt safer with this girl than >with any one. Even the big dog creature named Nanaki couldn't scare him. KRILLAN (Red): Oh yeah? YAMUCHA (Meowth): YAHHHHH!! >Vincent and Red had been apprehensive with the cat and the two humans with >the 'R' on them, but the girl they trusted. She explained a bit about her life, >her foster mother Julia Chang, KRILLAN: Hang on. I thought SHE was Julia. GOKU: Yeah, and since it’s a foster mother, that would be a real coincidence. >about her friends, the tournament and how she is here now. Vincent was >impressed with her skills, VEGETA: Of course, Vincent is impressed with anyone who doesn’t wallow in self pity like him. >as he found out, and Red was just impressed with the young girl, who seemed to >command nature, and yet at the same time, seem so innocent and loving. VEGETA: Key word is ‘seem’. >They arrived at the observatory. Bugenhagen had been moved out and stored >into a special area. GOKU: The fridge. KRILLAN: Who wants cold cuts? >Red had been notified and was as expected, extremely saddened, but they would >shoot him into the stars, a special cremation, allowing his ashes to allign >himself to the planet. VEGETA: That’s the excuse. In reality, they just can’t stand him, not even in death. >Julia was saddened, even Meowth felt a bit sad, small tears forming. Red >surprisingly shrugged it off, and they went to rest in the observatory. VEGETA: Their ETERNAL rest. >"So, I guess, that members from three portals of your world have come to our >world. Julia, you are with one group and Meowth, you are with another, am I >correct?" Red said. ALL: NO! >Both nodded. GOKU: (makes rattling sounds) >"That means that there is a third group scattered around the planet as well. >Damn, it could be good or bad." Vincent interjected. >"So, you and your friends, as well as enemies are here, in both parties." said >Red. >"Yep." Meowth said. "Although, they ain't our enemies really, we've just been >assigned to capture their Pikachu!" GOKU: If Meowth were smarter, he’d try to convince these guys that Ash and friends are evil, but NOOOO! >"Pikachu?" Red puzzled, a look rare for him. >"It's a small electric mouse pokemon, usually they are docile, but this one is >mega-powerful.....that's why we have to catch it!" Meowth stated. >"Hmmm.....thieves...." Vincent said. KRILLAN (Vincent): You know what I do to thieves? Chop off their hands! GOKU (Meowth): Eep. >"I prefer to say 'business'." Meowth smirked. >Vincent gave a small smile and went to the main area. >"Red, if three different portal allignments have now entered the planet, >could they be shown here?" Vincent asked. YAMUCHA: Where? On Vincent’s forehead? >Red thought for a minute. The Mako explosion was a change in the energy of >the planet, and these different particles will probably be with the people >from the portals, so that could be a definite possibility......... >Both of their thoughts were interrupted by a crashing through the doors. >"WAAAH!" screamed Jessie and James, as they plowed through. >"Prepare for troubbbblllleee...." they started, before collapsing. ALL: THANK YOU! >Everyone groaned, including Meowth. He hopped off Julia's shoulder and went >to 'wake' them up, with his traditional scratch. GOKU: Ouch! They need a new alarm clock. >Two screams, and an attempt to beat up Meowth later, KRILLAN: They tell time by fights? GOKU: Why not? We basically do. Example. Hey Vegeta, when did you get together with Bulma? VEGETA (automatically): About a year before we fought the androids. GOKU: See? >Jessie and James woke up to their surroundings. >"What is this?" Jessie asked. KRILLAN: A crappy fanfic. >"This is my late grandfather's observatory, and we were trying to work out >what happened to you, and if your friends or in your case, 'enemies' are >around here." said Vincent. >"OHHHHHHHHH......." they said, sarcastically, KRILLAN: They got a death wish, right? >but Meowth looked at them with a believing look. >"I know how to work this thing, but there is only room for three. Vincent, >Julia you won't mind coming in, YAMUCHA: Heh. >whilst those two recover." Red said. Vincent and Julia nodded, although Julia >didn't have a clue what was going on. KRILLAN: As per usual. >"O.K, Meowth, make sure you don't get into any trouble." Julia said. GOKU (Meowth): Who..... me? >"Trouble...." Jessie started, but Meowth scratched her again before she >could start the chant. >VEGETA: I’m actually starting to appreciate that cat. >Julia had to giggle. VEGETA: Or else. >She hopped in with Vincent and Red as they move up a floor. >Julia looked dumbstruck GOKU: Or just… nah! We’ve said that too much already. >as she saw what looked like the planet, in model scale, ahead of her, but >it looked.....real. Shooting stars and energy from the land and space were >transporting around it. >"It's beautiful." she whispered. KRILLAN: She didn’t want the planet to know she thought that. >Red smiled. His grandfather was proud of his work. Red realised now he >would have to follow his footsteps in the work of becoming an Elder, as >well as protector of Cosmo Canyon. GOKU: So his footsteps guarded the canyon? >They went closer for a better look. Energy was projecting from many areas. >The planet was their oyster. KRILLAN: :snicker: Their oyster? Does that mean they’re gonna rip the planet in half and take its core? >Red looked at the air of the Northern Crater and nodded. "Here, look here." >he said. GOKU: This brought to you by the Department of Redundancy Department. >Vincent and Julia looked at one particular area. It showed a lot of energy >flow from the area bursting in many directions. >"If we follow the trail, we can locate wherever everyone is." Red stated. >The three main paths of energy were flowing into paths. KRILLAN: That’s funny. I thought there were more groups than that. >Two parts were in the Kalm area, one bright, one dark. KRILLAN: No, I don’t think so. One of them went in Midgar, remember? GOKU: Actually the author probably doesn’t. >"This signifies that energy of goodness and evil are in the area." Red >said, a bit worried. >Julia nodded, looking at Heihachi or Ogre could be there. ALL: HUH!? >Vincent looked as passive as ever. KRILLAN: That has to do with the fact that his face is covered. YAMUCHA (Vincent): Must...keep...dark appearance... >Red went over the Mako particles which have recently been transmitted. There >was some in the Rocket Town area as well as some in Cosmo, of course. KRILLAN: Of COURSE! GOKU: Um, I think he means the fact that the group we’re seeing are there. KRILLAN: Oh. Right. >However, he noticed that whilst most of the Mako was pouring out of the >Crater, there was some power which remained there. This was odd, because >the Crater in this condition, would gush Mako, KRILLAN: Doesn’t that make sense? Since the energy comes from there, some should still be there...? >unless..... YAMUCHA: Someone left the light on. >He noticed that they were dark, and as big as a large marble on the model, >signifies lots of power. GOKU: Must be Frieza and King Cold. >"This isn't good." Red stated, as he proceeded to tell his two friends >what happened. KRILLAN (Red): Well, you see, we were on the airship and Sephiroth appeared... >Julia held her breath. YAMUCHA (Julia): Who ripped one? >"One of them is probably Ogre.......he loves power and is as evil as >they come........" >"So, who is the other?" Vincent asked. >They were about to consider options, when Red spotted something else on >the model. Something disturbing as far as he was concerned. VEGETA: A picture of Rush Limbaugh. >"Look at this outside the Canyon." he said. >They looked and found another similar size dark power outside it. KRILLAN: Heh. Maybe THIS fight will result in some interest? >"No.........what could that be?" Red said. >"It can't be that Team Rocket?" Vincent said. Red shook his head. GOKU: Their power level is far too low. >"Then who is it?" Julia asked. _____________________________________________________________________ >So, who is the other power? Hazard a guess, KRILLAN: Sure, why not? Well... I say Sephiroth. This guy’s that strange to write Sephy back in. GOKU: I’m holding out for Mewtwo. VEGETA: Fanboy. In a better fic, it would be ME, but I’ll say… Cell. KRILLAN: Ugh. That’s an even worse possibility than Cloud’s. YAMUCHA: Well, my bet is on Vicious, from Cowboy Bebop. OTHERS: Nani!? GOKU: Where did that come from? YAMUCHA: He's cool. >mail me, it isn't a character that has already been mentioned, but is a >character out of the four games in this fanfic. VEGETA AND YAMUCHA: Damn! VEGETA: Great, now we’re both wrong. GOKU: Wait, does that mean this character is in all the games?…. Well, lets just keep reading. >Mako Crossover Chapter 8 >Highwind Takes Charge GOKU: Yep. They’re done for. >By Chris Homer >Cid was forced to break the passionate embrace with Shera, remembering that YAMUCHA: He needed to breathe. >he had to find his friends. The conservation between the two was fairly >short GOKU: It went along the lines of “mmph” and “oohh”. >(Cid goes to Shera "Shera I....." whilst Shera said "Cid, I...." and then >they kissed), but the passion between them certainly wasn't. VEGETA: I really hate this crap. >"I'm sorry, Shera, for all the shit I've made you put up with, GOKU: :gasp: I didn’t know he could say any swears beyond random symbols. >you saved my life, and now, I've got to save everyone elses.....again!" He >sighed, wondering if he was getting too old for this. YAMUCHA: What, making out? >Shera had to giggle, Cid was frustrated, but in a gentle way. YAMUCHA: Must….not….comment. >"I understand." she said. >Cid went to turn away, but Shera held him again and they kissed again. Cid >closed his eyes as the Highwind, Sephiroth, the portals, Mako, it all >exited his mind for this moment...... KRILLAN: And one thought entered his mind. “Im gonna get some!” >Guile had popped his head round the corner but saw what was going on >and decided to make himself VEGETA: …Some popcorn and watch. >scarce. As he was about to, Cid spotted him and released Shera. GOKU (Cid): Excuse me, I have to go kill someone. >"Guile.....er....heh." Cid said, stupidly. VEGETA: I’m seeing a definite pattern in the characters’ personalities. >Guile smiled, he had reconciled with his wife Jane, and his daughter >Amy in a previous tournament so he knew what Cid was going through. >"Have you rounded the troups?" Cid said. KRILLAN (Guile): Yep, I’ve rounded them up from 7 to 10. Took some genetic work. >"Yep, although they may fire rounds at each other" Guile said looking >back at the small ensamble behind him. YAMUCHA (Cid): Maybe we shouldn’t have given them guns. >Although there seemed to be temporary peace between Gary, Jin and >Hwoarang, that didn't mean a rucus could erupt any second. GOKU: And then there might be a tussle or a scuffle. >"Hmm..." Cid looked on as he entered. He kissed Shera then gave a 'I >know it, you know it' voice to the three younger members of this group. KRILLAN (group): Sir, no sir! We do not know it! >"Now listen..........whether you like it or we like it, we've gotta work >together, and find these evil bastards which Seph called about, YAMUCHA (Cid): Seph called collect. >now, although my airship is in the crater, probably destroyed, that >doesn't mean we can't travel." He smirked. GOKU (Cid): Man, I’m funny… >He walked down to the shed area, where a contented smirk hit his face. KRILLAN: He promptly hit it back. >"The Baby Bronco." he said. GOKU (singing): Baby Beluga, in the deep blue sea, swims so high, and swims so free. VEGETA: Never, and I mean NEVER, sing that again. >A small plane, blue, the size of the Tiny Bronco, GOKU: Why have we never heard of that before? >was awaiting in a hidden part of Cid back garden, which looked much >larger than it seemed. GOKU: Objects in this fic are smaller than they appear. >It was hidden behind many aspects of vegetation, and despite its colour, >it seemed to be hidden pretty well. >"The sister ship to the Tiny Bronco, my first flying machine." he said. >Guile looked on, impressed. It was no match obviously for his best Air Pilots, GOKU: Or to knowing how to fly, >but Cid was in his words 'The best damn pilot in the business.", and after >learning about him, he seemed to agree with him. KRILLAN: Which shows that Guile isn’t very bright either. >The other three had similar actions, Jin had been on his grandfather's helicopter, >but it was closed and stuffy, this was air free. VEGETA: Good, then they will all sufficate. >Hwoarang had never been in the air before, except to get to the tournament, >and wasn't sure what to make of it. GOKU: The air? You have to breathe it. >Gary was enthusiastic, as he had never flew before. >"All right, let's go!" Gary screamed, ready to jump on, but was held by the >scruff of the neck by Cid. >"Hold it, young man, there is a slight problem." Cid said. VEGETA (Cid): We’re out of fuel, so we have to put Gary in the tank. >"What?" Gary asked, obviously eager to get on. >"The engine needs fixing." he said. "Looks like you may not be as >useless as I thought." VEGETA: I doubt that very much. >Gary groaned, passing out on the floor with a 'I should have known' >kinda look. >"Chill, kid, me and Guile can fix this crap within 10 minutes. GOKU: Fine, that takes care of your constipation problem, but what about the engine? >You show us your poke-thingys and what they can do, might entertain us!" >Cid said. >Gary perked up a bit, he like showing off. ALL (sarcastic): NOOOOO!! >He got his pokedex out, ready to bring more out when static hit it. VEGETA: And knocked it away. GOKU: We got some vicious static here. >"What the hell......" Jin and Gary said at the same time. >"It looks like I can't bring the ones from the storage shed. The interference >between the two worlds is stopping it." Gary said. KRILLAN: I’d be surprised if the Pokemon world had technology to travel across dimensions anyways. >"So....which ones have you got now?" said Hwoarang. >"Well, I've got Raichu, an evolved Pikachu, which used electric attacks. >Vaporeon, a water evee, which uses water and ice attacks. Golbat, an evolved >Zubat, uses poison, sonic and drain attacks. Hitmonlee, who basically fights. GOKU: So it’s the Pokemon equivalent of a Saiya-jin? >Ivysaur, an evolved Bulbasaur, uses ground, grass and vine attacks, and also KRILLAN: Far too much explanation. >Arcaine, a powerful fire dog pokemon, evolved from a Growlithe." he said. >He released them all, whilst most looked cute, they demonstrated signs of >battle and power ready. >"I have others, such as Nidoran, Beetril, Clefairy, Mankey, Weepingbell...... >much more than that loser, Ash!" he said, with a smug look. GOKU: Much of a bragger, huh? >"I'll take it that this loser, Ash, is your rival, and is also here......" >Cid said. YAMUCHA: Brilliant deduction, there, Cid. >"Probably....doesn't matter, if it hadn't been for that portal, I would have >defeated him, and become the greatest....." >"SHUT UP!" they all said. VEGETA: I’m sorry, author, no matter how much you try to redeem yourself now, your fate is sealed. _____________________________________________________________________ >"Of course, you can lend them!" A smiling Chole greeted Tifa Lockheart as she >entered the chocobo farm. >"Thanks!" Tifa smiled to the charming girl. Bill stood, a bit in awe with all >the girls, and all pretty ones, even though some were half and even in Mistys >case, a quarter of his age. GOKU: This is NOT the type of guy we need to meet. >"Well, Miss Lockheart, why do ya need them all of a sudden?" said Bill, as >Tifa brought out a blue, black, green, dashing yellow and gold chocobo, which >were quick with replies from Sakura and Misty of 'Aw....how cute!" VEGETA: Girls… >"We've got to save our friends, something terribly evil has got our friends, >and with these we would be much quicker." she said. KRILLAN: For you see, chocobo meat is an excellent source of stamina. >"Have you seen some weird figures along with two people in their thirties >coming past here?" Tifa said. >"Nope, except for my staff but...." Bill chuckled, as Chole hit him. GOKU: Getting beaten up is fun... >"Hey, I hope you weren't refering to me!" she said. >"No, no, of course not!" he quickly stated as Tifa chuckled. YAMUCHA: Sure, he wasn’t. >Bill looked at the girls, only recognising Tifa and Yuffie. "Who are these >fine young ladies?" he asked Tifa. YAMUCHA: And what are their phone numbers? >"They are friends from another universe to save the world from an evil alien. Any other questions?" Tifa sked. KRILLAN (Bill): Yes, what are you smoking? >Bill thougt for a minute. "Nope, that sound fairly normal." Bill said. GOKU: Apparently thinking just isn’t his strong suit. >Chun-Li looked confused. >"What's with that?" she said. >"Saving the world for us seems normal to everyone. Besides, Bills always a >bit confused when VEGETA: ...he’s awake. >pretty girls coming into his view." Tifa said. KRILLAN (Tifa): So I have no idea why he is confused now. >"Reminds me of someone else." Misty chuckled, Brock immediately coming to >mind. >"Well....Thanks Bill!" Yuffie said cheerily, as the five chocobos assembled, >nuzzling across Yuffie's YAMUCHA: 0_0 >hand, YAMUCHA: Awwwww... >where some greens were eagerly awaiting. Of course, this ended up in a >bit of a panic. >"HELP!" screamed Yuffie, as all five birds tried to feed. KRILLAN: AHHH! Flesh eating birds!!!! >"Oh my god....." Sakura started. GOKU: They’ve… >"If you say, they've killed Kenny, I'll kill you!" Chun-Li said. GOKU: I hate when the fic one-ups me. >Sakura quickly shut up. >"We'd better help her though!" Tifa said, getting them into restrain. VEGETA: What, did she tie them up? _____________________________________________________________________ >After a lot of pushing and shoving, and a comment from Yuffie about when she >used to remember when a chocobo was a meal, VEGETA: Like yesterday. >they assembled outside, trying to locate Bison and company. >However, there was a slight problem. GOKU: They were all very stupid and wandered in circles for hours. >"Er, guys, how do you ride one of these?" Misty said. >Tifa stopped as she went to mount. It hadn't occured to her that only she and >Yuffie could ride them. VEGETA: Man, bouts of stupidity really abound with these people. >Tifa surveyed the situation. >"Do you know how to ride horses?" she said. Misty nodded, riding on her >family's horses was one of the few things apart from being a better trainer >that she had over her sisters who were hopeless. GOKU: But her sisters held many things over her, like looks, talent, jobs… >Chun-Li also nodded, her work with police involvement made it customary, YAMUCHA: What, nodding? >but Sakura looked a bit nervous. >Yuffie, who had taken a good friendship with Sakura led her to the green >chocobo. GOKU: Wow, beating each other to a pulp makes them friends. This is really getting like our universe. >"This one is the mildest. To ride, hold the reins.....yep, like that, now >hop on." sakura carefully mounted the chocobo who looked up at her. Sakura >gently stroked its head, hoping it would trust her. YAMUCHA: Aw man, this is too easy. This section is just ripe with great lines. GOKU: And you know what will happen if you say them, right? KRILLAN: I never pegged you for such a prude, Goku. GOKU: I just have some decency. >"That's a nice....er, it is a boy or girl?" Sakura asked. >"Boy....it names Mont, as in mountain, it's a mountain chocobo, it can cross mountains!" she said. KRILLAN: Real original. GOKU: Hey, the MSTer called his black one Black. KRILLLAN: I guess you’re right. (BOOM!) And leave the poor fourth wall alone. >"Wow!" she said. "What about the others?" >Yuffie looked at them. Tifa was on the gold chocobo. Yuffie was going on the >black chocobo. YAMUCHA: Darn it!! >Misty went on the blue and Chun on the yellow. >"The blue one can cross rivers, the yellow is just a normal, except this one >goes at much faster speeds than the others, the black can go almost anywhere, >whlst the gold can go anywhere, even in the sea..... GOKU: It just drowns out there. >that's how we got this!" >she said. She went out to get the Knights materia, but realised something. >"Oh damn, Cloud's got it! >I should have stole it back before we vanished!" she said. GOKU: Why that little! >"Er, Yuffie, how do I ride this again?" >"Oh, sorry, just hold the reins, move it left and right with a big pull and >for a burst of speed, GOKU: Push the triangle button. >tapped the sides with your feet." Yuffie said. >"Is that it?" Yuffie said. KRILLAN: I thought Yuffie was the one explaining this? >"Sure, these are more tame than horses, just hold on tight when it goes fast!" >she said as she mounted the black chocobo. >"O...KKKKKKKKK!" she yelled as it went into motion, behind the other four >but still fast enough to make her skirt a bit darker. YAMUCHA: Ewww!! OTHERS: What? YAMUCHA: I think it means she pissed her pants. >"This is fun!" Misty said, more comfortable than you might expect an 11 year >old girl on a chocobo. >Chun was enjoying herself to the limit. GOKU: What level? >She was trying to out pace Tifa, who was just ahead, looking like a pro KRILLAN: Or a Ho. GOKU: Was that really necessary? >on the gold chocobo. Just behind them came Misty, then Yuffie, who was checking >behind on Sakura. GOKU: So she was trying to knock Sakura off her chocobo? >"AHHHHHH!" she yelled as it seemed she would hit the wall. KRILLAN: What wall? >The chocobo turned right to avoid it as Sakura opened her eyes. >"Remind me to hate you!" Sakura screamed. VEGETA: If she can’t remember on her own, she deserves to be fried. >Yuffie smirked. >"We've still got a mission!" Tifa screamed. >"Yeah, but how you gonna do it behind me?" Chun said, pulling ahead. >"WHAT?!!!! YOU'LL PAY FOR THAT!" Tifa laughed, having a rare chance of >fun. VEGETA: And while they were messing around, Meteor landed on their heads. The end. So what’s on TV tonight? >As Chun and Tifa battled for the lead, and doing a good job of arguing, >they didn't noticed someone jump ahead of them. >"Hey, slowpokes!" the girl said. >Chun and Tifa stopped their arguments as Misty had pulled ahead of them. KRILLAN: Well she is the lightest, I suppose she’d be a good jockey. >"Catch me if you can!" she screamed and raced down. Tifa and Chun broke >out of shock, fled into action, with Yuffie behind, trying her best to >ignore Sakura's death threats. GOKU: However, she unfortunatly DID ignore the gunshot from Sakura’s area. _____________________________________________________________________ >"All done!" >Gary sulked in the corner as his 'telling off' was complete. He only >wanted to show off his Pokemon........ >"It took us half the time expected, plus it was piss easy!" Cid smirked. KRILLAN: Is Cid always like this? GOKU: Usually worse. >Hwoarang and Jin looked up at the machine ahead of them. It looked like a >piece of art, but could it fly like one? GOKU: Sure, it flies just like a sculpture. KRILLAN: Sculptures don’t fly. GOKU: Exactly. >Cid could see the skeptical looks of the two martial artists. >"Get your asses in there or you be dead before you enter!" he said. GOKU: Now he’s channeling Barret. >Jin and Hwoarang didn't argue. Despite their superior fighting skill, >they knew they were no match against Cid's magic. YAMUCHA: So what was the point of having these other fighters if they can’t compare? >Gary was about to complain, but decided that he didn't seem to have a choice >in the matter. He groaned and also got in the plane. >Guile went on next. >"You flying?" Guile asked. >"Hell, yeah!" he said. GOKU: Cid’s channeling Stone Cold. KRILLAN (Stone Cold): I’m flying this rust bucket, and if you try to stop me, I’ll stomp a mudhole in your ass and walk it dry and that’s the BOTTOM LINE! >Guile did a sarcastic moan, Cid looked like thunder YAMUCHA: I really wish I knew what that meant. >before they both laughed and hopped in. >"See ya, Shera!" he shouted, mouthing out 'I love you' so that no-one noticed, GOKU: Anyone who wasn’t looking, anyways. >although Guile was still sniggering. KRILLAN: That is bad for your health. >"What was that about?" Cid asked whilst he was still snickering. >"Erm....nothing." Guile said seriously. >Cid humphed and went into his pilot seat. Guile next to him, with Jin and >Hwoarang behind them and Gary clinging on like mad, excited, nervous and >grumpy, all at the same time (if that's possible). VEGETA: Probably not, but when did reality make a difference to this fic? >Cid had no radar, so couldn't locate anyone easily. He decided the best >person to call would be Red. >He clicked on his PHS, only to recieve static. GOKU: He doesn’t understand the pricing plan. >"Aw, crap! Looks like this f*&^%$! Mako explosion has cocked up the transition on my PHS!" KRILLAN: Transition to what? >Cid sighed, looks like he would have to do this the hard way. That >being find out where there is trouble, because most likely, his friends >will be behind it, and beat the crap out of whatever is upsetting him >(Most like Yuffie, VEGETA: Well, at least hes got the right idea. >but thats beside the point) >"Hang on, guys!" he said, and soon, the Baby Bronco was in motion. YAMUCHA: Unfortunatly, that motion was straight down at half the speed of sound. >Guile looked passive as they accelerated into the air. Jin was calm, >Hwoarang was screaming with joy, whilst Gary was just screaming. KRILLAN: This is just too much. >At this speed, and he was at the back, he would be the most likely to fall, >despite the safety harnesses that he wisely attached himself to. VEGETA: Sadly, he didn’t notice the others sawing the end of the harness with a knife. >"Next stop, Cosmo Canyon!" Cid exclaimed. >"Cosmo Canyon, what's that?" Jin asked. >"It's a place full of knowledge, intellect and loads of crap VEGETA: Apparently they don’t have the knowledge for toilets. >that we wouldn't dream of knowing, and perhaps Red might be there, on >the other hand, some of your friends might be there as well.....this crazy >portal sent us three miles from anywhere....." GOKU: No, it sent you to Rocket Town. >"Don't worry, if you are the best damn pilot in this universe, you can get >us there in no time!" Guile said. GOKU: Aren’t there no other pilots in this planet? >"Cheers......oh, man, where did I put my map?" Cid said. >Guile slapped his head. "Oh crap......" KRILLAN: That about sums it up. _____________________________________________________________________ >Finally, Bison had come to a stop.

GOKU: What, is there a demolition derby? >The man smiled. "Sure." >Ash smiled as the bike was put in a 'reserved' spot, wrapped in pink >ribbon.

Well, I’m a rook in this game! OTHERS: Huh? >Ash sighed. He missed his adventures, but this was a beginning of >a new one. This was his 3rd day here, and despite the threat of death, >at least he was enjoying himself. He calmly walked up to Ling and Brock. >"She beat you again, huh?" Ash snickered. KRILLAN: Surprise surprise. >"It's not funny!" Brock screamed, although he was dying to laugh as well. >Ling snickered, and soon, they all started off. >"Did you win anything Ash?" Brock asked.

Brock looked at his young friend. Yep, all >reports were in, VEGETA: This fic sucks. >he was in love with Misty. KRILLAN: So someone wrote a report on Ash’s love life? VEGETA: Now THAT would be a short read. >Hopefully, Ash would have better luck than he did with girls. >Brock had gotten very thoughtful. He could be involved with saving >the world. He could be a hero.....maybe that would help. Nah. YAMUCHA (Brock): Yeah! Screw heroism, I want BABES!! >He heard a purring by him. His adorable Vulpix (my favourite >pokemon aside from Pikachu) GOKU: Why, thank you for your opinion, Chris! >purred by him. Brock bent down and started petting it and stroking >its fur. As if one cue, Pikachu hopped from exhaustion into its trainers >arms, where Ash promtly started to tickle it. Pikachu giggled, giving >'friendly' shocks to its trainer. VEGETA: That’s kinda like giving someone friendly gunshots to the skull. GOKU: Are you trying to suggest something? >Ling looked on. How her two new friends adored their pokemon. They >were adorable admittingly. She still like them, KRILLAN (Pokemon): And me like you too. >but focused on martial arts more. He remembered when she was being >taught by Professor Oak in her early years, and she aquired her starting >pokemon, a bear cub. It was known as 'Panda' and was so adorable. She >raised it brilliantly, but when she took up martial arts, most of her >pokemon trainingwas forgotten. GOKU: Along with other skills, such as thinking. >However, she and her uncle Wang had kept up raising Panda, and then Ling >got a bit lucky. YAMUCHA: O_O >On her 14th birthday, as part of her training, she had to climb up >Evolution Mountain. From there, she saw some poachers trying to get a >huge blue bird. YAMUCHA: Damn, they’re talking about Pokemon. >Ling ran and didn't even give them any chance to see what was going on. >She disabled them quickly and they ran off. >She released the bird but it was in no condition to fly away. She took it >back to Wangs temple where it was nursed. She found out it was a rare ice >pokemon called Articuno. She took care of it, it was in a version of a coma. VEGETA: Coma version 2.0! >From then, Wang bought her a Vulpix and Pidgey for her birthday, >seeing that she was getting interested in pokemon again. She loved them >and raised them brilliantly. VEGETA: Sure, you did. >She evolved Vulpix a year after getting it, using a Fire Stone, and >Pidgey evolved into Pidgeotto, then Pidgeott within the following year. >The Articuno had recovered, but didn't want to return, because it was >afraid of what might happen. So it stayed with Ling, realising that Ling >had cared for it, and that not all humans were dangerous. GOKU: And Ling taught her that, how? >She had pokeballs, but she preferred to keep them out. But in this world, >there was little chance of that happening. Except for Panda, who was her >best friend, and people were scared to death of it. GOKU: Miss Antisocial. >Ling smiled. Her new friends were enjoyable company, but she missed her >home. She went back to the joy of the park, forgetting her joys and >worries at the same time. VEGETA: Sheesh, is there going to be any action today? _____________________________________________________________________ >Barret and Cloud were surprisingly having almost as much as a good time >as the 'kids' were. VEGETA: That would be due to the frontal lobotomies. >Ryu and Ken were also with them, both of them enjoyed the games as much >as the 'kids' did, they weren't particularly worried about Cait. KRILLAN: But then again, who ever is? >He could take care of anything nearby, his weapons and materia were at >his strongest. Barret was a big kid at heart. But his heart had been >affected by a number of tragedies. The fall of Corel, VEGETA: Off a cliff. >the death of his wife, and now the abduction of Marlene, he wondered >if God plagued him. YAMUCHA (God): Nah, I’m just bored. >Cloud noticed the worry on his friends eyes. "Whats up?" >Barret broke up from his trance. "Nothing. Just reliving some bad memories." GOKU: Such as that time Cloud was wearing a dress. (Others shudder) >Cloud smiled. "She'll be alright." >Barret tried to smile back, but couldn't. >"How do you know that Spike? GOKU: When did this become a Bebop fic? >This new evil is supposed to be more powerful than Sephiroth, and >part of it has kidnapped Marlene. Who knows what is going to happen >to her....I feel.....so.....helpless....." >Cloud put a hand on his friend's shoulder. "We'll save her. Or by hell >fire and brimstone, VEGETA: Cloud’s channeling Jim Ross. >my sword will rip apart those who harm her." he said. >Barret knew that Cloud wasn't just talking about Marlene. He sensed that >Tifa had some impact on Cloud's worry. >He had a feeling that the night before their battle with Sephiroth, that >the two of them had remained on the Highwind area. According to Tifa, they >had just 'talked' YAMUCHA: Sure. And Yuffie DOESN'T want to steal materia. >but Barret had caught them sleeping outside, their heads on their shoulders, GOKU: Was Barret afraid the Headless Horseman might have got them? >he wondered if they were more than friends. GOKU: Nope, can’t see that happening. KRILLAN: Nah. VEGETA: No way she’d want that. >"Cloud....do you love Tifa?" Barret asked, quite bluntly, trying to >take his mind of the abduction of his daughter. >Cloud was a little bit shocked and surprised by the question. "Well, >I...erm..ah..erm..." It was true that Cloud shared something more than >friendship over near 20 years. GOKU: Clothing preferences. >But was it love? Was that what he felt with Tifa. Or with..... Aeris. KRILLAN: Whew, almost forgot her name there. >The beautiful brunette Cetra. It was almost a fall in love at first >sight scenario. Her personality was so pleaant. And she was so innocent, >yet powerful. And yet, that innocence and stubborness is what got her killed. GOKU: That and Cloud’s stupidity. >He felt a bit guilty as he was her 'bodyguard', YAMUCHA (singing): And IIIIIIIIIIII, will always love youuuuuuuuuuuuuuu… >but seeing near death....and seeing Aeris in the Lifestream as the >Lifestream started to fold the wounds of Meteor, just before this whole >portal crap had started........the looks she gave him was one of >understanding. Understanding that he loved Tifa, VEGETA: And she was going to haunt him forever about that. >and the love of Aeris was guilt on his behalf. >Cloud sighed and turned to Barret and nodded. GOKU: But since Barret had asked the question half an hour ago, he was long gone. >"Yes, I do. And if anything happens to her...." >Barret nodded in understanding. _____________________________________________________________________ >Ryu and Ken had wondered away GOKU: Go ahead, wonder away. >from Cloud and Barret who were talking. Despite the personalities and >worlds between the two groups, Ken and Ryu were suffering similar >problems to Cloud and Barret. KRILLAN: Diarrhea. >Ryu was playing the noisy games to avoid his conflicting emotions. >He had been seen as a man of cool daemoner, GOKU: Does that mean he can summon daemons? >one of little emotion. However, three people had changed that. YAMUCHA: Larry, Curley, and Moe. >Ken, Chun-Li and Sakura. His three best friends. Others had helped >him during battle such as Guy and Fei Long as well, and Ryu could >smile now with the best of them. KRILLAN: What, is that a skill to be proud of? >Ryu had been challenged by his long time friend and partner when he >entered the tournament, and Ken had been badgering him in getting a >girlfriend. It was the first time Ryu had smiled in a very long time. >It was then when an excited fan introduced herself for the first time. YAMUCHA: By flashing Ryu! >Her name was Sakura, a members of the Street Fighting Fan Club KRILLAN: In other words, someone who loves the game series. >and the number one ranked fighter in the junior street fighting league. VEGETA: Is that a big accomplishment? How many people could be in that group? >Now 16, she could be able to enter the alpha tournaments. >He remembered their first meeting. >"OOF!" Ryu groaned as a young girl collided into him. He was slightly >winded but the girl was on the floor. KRILLAN: She was polishing it. >"Are you all right?" Ken asked, helping the girl up. >"I'm....fine...." she stuttered, her lower lip cut. The girl was young, >about 16, Ken and Ryu were 24, and seeing a young girl was beyond their >morales. YAMUCHA: Yes, the important messages they had to deliver could be ruined. >She had a cute face, ruined by the blood, but they weren't perverts. >Her dress had been cut a bit and her skirted had been hemmed up. >"Are you O.K, Miss...." Ryu asked. >"Sakura. Sakura Tsangeou." she said. Ryu helped her up and wiped off >the cut on her lip tenderly, Sakura trying not to flinch. VEGETA (Sakura): Ewww, hes touching me. >"Thank you..Mister..." Sakura said and then looked up at him. >"Ryu....Ryu Houji?" she said. KRILLAN: Nope, its Ryu the dragon prince. GOKU: Which one? >"Yep. That's me." Ryu smiled, something he had been doing a lot more >often since being with Ken and Guy, the gruesome twosome. >Without warning, Sakura had wrapped her nimble figure around Ryu's >strong body. YAMUCHA: Kinky!! >Ryu trying to breathe, whilst Ken was trying hard not to laugh. >"Ryu....I've waited for the day I could meet you......I'm your >number one fan!" she screamed, a huge smile on her face, despite >the cut. Ryu sighed. He had a feeling that he wouldn't be rid of her..... VEGETA(Ryu): [bang!] Guess I was wrong… _____________________________________________________________________ >And that was definetly true. Sakura hung around them every day up to now. >To be honest, Ryu didn't mind. Sakura was the scatterbrained sister he >wished to have. KRILLAN: Huh? Who wants a ditz wandering around? >She was very chatty and happy, the opposite to Ryu, but thanks to her, >most of his emotions were coming back to him. Ken, Guy and other >streetfighters had helped him as well, but one emotion was missing. >That was love. He hadn't felt the supreme emotion that he should feel. VEGETA: So life was worthless, he shot himself, changed history, and ended the fic. >He felt anger, depression, happiness and many of the primary emotions >in one person, but not love. There wasn't a person he had connected with. >The only person close enough was Sakura, but he loved her like a sister. YAMUCHA: This fic might be traveling into forbidden territory. >She was a bit young, and she was a bit over-exubberant. He smirked again. >However, not one he could love. Until he saw her...... YAMUCHA: …NAKED! _____________________________________________________________________ >The brackets for the quarter finals had been called up. Ryu would be >definetly on it, after winning all of his prelimaries, as had Ken. >Sakura hadn't made it, entered late in the competiton despite winning >all but one of her matches. She was upset, and had to be >consolled by Guy back at the hotel, KRILLAN: Who wants to make the double entrende joke? YAMUCHA: Too easy. >who had also been knocked out. >Ryu saw the bracket. The eight finalists were; >Ryu Hoiji (Rank 1) >Ken Masters (Rank 3) >Viktor Sagat (Rank 2) >Scarlett Vega (Rank 7) >Master Gen (Rank 4) KRILLAN: Whos that guy? >William Guile (Rank 8) >'Akuma' (????) GOKU: How can you not know a rank? >At this point he stopped. He had watched many of the battles, >including the fights of Bisons two bodyguards. The winner of the >final eight would face him in the final. VEGETA: Bison’s got a Mr. Satan type deal. >He saw that Gen had manage to get in. His win column was legendary >and he was defeating men left and right. GOKU: But then a man came from behind and whipped his ass. >The man William Guile had been a surprise, no real martial art fanese, >but he made up with agression and style, shown when defeating Bison's >third bodyguard Balrog, to decide the final slot. >The demon 'Akuma' they had faced before, with Akuma winning.

He looked at the eighth >To be decided; >Chun-Li Zang vs Fei Long for the Number 6 Rank. KRILLAN: This suggests that Akuma fought for the ???? rank. YAMUCHA: Maybe it’s the wild card. >Chun-Li like Sakura had been a late starter, but Ryu hadn't payed >attention. KRILLAN: He was too poor. >Fei Long was someone that Ryu had beaten but it had been his only loss. GOKU: I thought he won? >Chun-Li, apparently, had less matches, but won them >all.

However, her face didn't look Chinese. In fact, >it didn't look like any face before. YAMUCHA: Looked more like a butt. >If you looked 'beauty' in the dictionary, it would probably be a picture of >this face. KRILLAN: Only if she wrote the dictionary. >her hair had been brought up in two ponytails, drapped along delicate >features of white. Her nose was perfectly form and her lips were rosy red. >Finally breaking out of his trance, Ryu said. GOKU: Ooooommmm. >"Sorry, Miss...." >The girl smiled. "Zang. Chun-Li Zang." she said, looking at the man. He >was one of the men that her boss at Interpol had wanted to look at as an >ally. However, as a late starter, YAMUCHA: She didn’t get any boobs till 12th grade. >she had only concerntrated on her matches. She had to win them all to >get to the last eight, and even that didn't get a guarantee. She did >the first part, defeating opponents such as Dee Jay, Blanka, Cammy, >Rolento and Katana.

Ryu >looked at the sheet again. >Below were the fights; >Ryu vs Guile >Ken vs Sagat >Akuma vs Gen KRILLAN: Well, it was nice knowing you, Gen. GOKU: But we don't even know who he is. >Vega vs Chun-Li/Fei-Long VEGETA: Vegas has Ryu winning at a million to one. >Ryu momentarilly looked knowing that his battle was against Guile, and >then looked at Chun-Li who looked upset and angry. >"What's wrong?" Ryu asked. VEGETA: She’s stuck in this fanfic with you. >"Nothing." she said, although it didn't look like nothing. >Ryu decided to take the inititative. "Listen, do you want to go to the >cafe for a coffee. If you don't want to, thats fine, talking to a stranger, >but....." >Chun-Li smiled. "I'd love to." KRILLAN (Chun):...Kick your ASS!! _____________________________________________________________________ >Since then, Chun had become fast friends with Ryu, Ken and Sakura, along >with their other friends. At the cafe, Chun admitted to her intentions >of removing Bison, YAMUCHA: Actually she just wanted to remove his hat, we want to see what kinda hairdo hes got. >as a policewomen of Interpol, and that she was upset with the battle >with Fei Long, a childhood friends of hers. But she would win, as she >wanted to face Vega, who was the demonic member of Shadowlaw. KRILLAN: I thought that was Akuma. >Ryu admired her courage and honestly, and her emotion. And because of >her, his last emotional block had finished. He didn't know her feelings >on him, but she had gone out with him in sparring matches YAMUCHA: The couple that fights together, stays together. >as well as normal breaks, and went to restuarants with Ken and Sakura >as well. GOKU: Now THERE’S a strange double date. >Ryu had to admit that Chun-Li was the best female fighter he had faced, >and the best fighter who didn't utilise Shokotan Karate. KRILLAN: Or in otherwords, everyone except him and Ken. GOKU: You sure? KRILLAN: Not a chance. >Sakura was good, but her inexperience was her weakness. No, Chun had >power in all fields of her work. >He watched her battle Fei Long. He chuckled. He remembered that his >friend Honda was by him, GOKU: And around him, and behind him. Honda’s big! >watching her, developing a crush on Chun. Chun liked Honda as a friend, >a sweet man as she said. Honda had been the surprise of the tournament, KRILLAN: He had left the buffet. >who had defeated Fei Long, but unfortunately, lost to Balrog, which meant >him out because Balrog was a lower rank than Fei Long. >The match between Fei Long and Chun-Li was 'awesome' as Sakura would put >it. VEGETA: Giving another reason why she should die. >Both friends didn't want to fight each other, but both wanted to win, for >different reasons. So, there was no mercy. YAMUCHA: It was a WWF main event. >Ryu had defeated Fei, but Fei had faced 10 opponents, the most in the >tournament, and won all but the matches again him and Honda. Fei was quick, >his punches flying in, striking Chun a few times, but she didn't look much >bad off. On the other hand, Chuns kicks were lightning fast, and they were >doing a lot of damage on Fei. KRILLAN: As the mysterious life bars floating above the arena showed. >Fei probably sensed he was in trouble so uped the attacks tenfold and his >speed. He started getting back into it, but Chun was calm and waited for >opening, striking with punches and kicks time and time again. >Chun hit her lightning kick at the same time Fei hit a Rekka ken. It was >done to the last move. GOKU: Good to the last drop. >Fei hit his flaming dragon kick on Chun-Li, as she fell, she felt >unconscious, but the image of her father kept her awake.

YAMUCHA: She had solved the Rubik’s cube. >In the next round, Ryu had defeated Guile with a hurricane kick, dragon >punch combo. He for some reason, helped them in Austrailia, and is probably >here.

GOKU (Muten Roshi): For you see this technique took fifty years to perfect. >He demonstrated the palm approach, and taking in using your chi and releasing >it. She done it, but used the word 'Kikoken' instead. VEGETA: Because she was stupid >It was when Ryu was demonstrating how to release, he held her hands around >her waist.... ....and they had locked eyes. Their heads dipped towards.... >.....and then an argument between Zangief and Guile down the hall broke them out >of it. ALL: Waugh-wah-wahhhhhhh…. >However, she did give him a peck on the cheek. He remembered the warmth of it, >he still felt it. It was like she was with him now. GOKU: Then Chun tapped him on the shoulder, scaring the crap out of him. >Ryu sighed, and heard Barret screaming. "Get your asses out, Cait's got us our >transport!" YAMUCHA: So why did they have donkeys? _____________________________________________________________________ >Ken seperated from Ryu, KRILLAN: And was filing for divorce. >seeing he was in one of his 'moods'.

YAMUCHA: Porn, porn, and porn. >His past, his master or Chun-Li. >Ken knew that the two of them showed attraction, but decided not to go >along with it. GOKU: The magnetic poles of the two would do the work. >He had shushed Sakura, who despite having a crush on Ryu, wanted to >tease the pair. Ken smiled, things of his young wife, Eliza and his son, >Mel. Could it be that this tournament had been the deathwish of his family? VEGETA: Well, the wish for him to die, maybe. >The tournament had made him stay away from his family long enough, and know >this new world, he was a chosen one, apparently. >He wasn't the smartest of men, VEGETA: No shit, Sherlock. >but Ken knew that his family was life, and every moment away from his family >made him believe that he was never going to see them again. KRILLAN: Lucky them. >Ken was the most potent fighter after Ryu in the universe, and yet, no fighter >could scare him as much as never seeing his family again. >Ken powered up his kata GOKU: Why? >and sighed, after hearing Barret voice echo around the Gold Saucer, "Get >your asses out, Cait's got our transport!"

TRY THESE!" he said. >From the same pokeball, four pokemon came out. Kadabra, Alakazam, Magmar and >Kingler. YAMUCHA: Ok Goku, what do we have here? GOKU: On Jessie and James’ side, we have a big snake, two balls connected, a big plant that eats its owner, and a creature with a giant tongue. On the other side are two creatures that play with spoons, a big fireball, and next week's crab dinner. >"YOURS ARE NO MATCH FOR THESE!" >A bullet tried to pierce Giovanni's skin.

YAMUCHA: Well, who wouldn’t be careless when dealing with a mean looking dog/lion thing? >He went to help Julia whilst Chaos/Vincent went to help Team Rocket. (NOTE: >Team Rocket were just a tad scared, but if it was helping, then who gives >a damn) GOKU: Not me, that’s for sure. >Julia was having problems. Unlike Red and Vincent, she didn't have >weapons and magic (other than her pendant, not used for situations like this), KRILLAN: Who says? YAMUCHA: The god of fanfictions. >and unlike Team Rocket, she didn't have any pokemon to help her with. >Plus, she didn't want to harm the creatures, VEGETA: Because she was a wimp. >even though one of them had pierced her skin with a shock attack. GOKU: Huh? Is this very sharp lightning? >Julia was down, the two pokemon were in the air and she could do very >little to attack. Suddenly, Red was by her, nuzzling her, hoping she >was alright, and cast ice on Aerodactyl and fire on KRILLAN: On Julia. >Zapdos. >Aerodactyl fell to two more ice spells and a lightning spell. Zapdos was >trickier, as there wasn't a real weakness to lightning. YAMUCHA: How about an insulator? >Red cast gravity, being an air pokemon, gravity might be made for it. GOKU: Why? Gravity magic can’t kill a creature! >He made a good choice. VEGETA: Which is bad for us. >The electric bird was screaming in angish as it flew lower to the >ground. Red kept casting fire then until it finally disappeared into >a stream of red light. Red nuzzled Julia and licked the cut where her >flesh was pierced. KRILLAN(Red): MMMmmmm, blood… >"Are you all right?" he asked. >"I will be...thanks." and hugged Red as he began to cure her. _____________________________________________________________________ >Giovanni couldn't believe it. The humans and that carnivore creature had >some kind of power that Jenova hadn't warned it about. GOKU: Here we go on the neutered people thing again. >And his two lackies pokemon were stronger than he thought. Victrebell >and Lickitung were out, but despite being against psychic, Arbok and >Weezing were still in the battle. YAMUCHA: The author was feeding them plot device power. >And they stayed there, as the power of Chaos ruined over Alakazam and >Kadabra. They couldn't read Chaos' mind, it was filled with a tangled >web of thoughts. KRILLAN: As opposed to Vincent’s mind, which was filled with COBwebs. >Before long, it was hard to recognise them as they vanished. >Giovanni was now more wary. Time to bring out the cavalry. >"You've surprise me. All of you." He glanced at Meowth. A Meowth beat a >Persian. Another 'miracle.' GOKU: Did we miss the first one? >"But time to bring out by best of old and new......" He concerntrated >and more pokemon came out. >Only a few was recognised by Jessie and James. Dragonite and Mewtwo, >the two most powerful pokemon. (All look to Goku) GOKU: Eh, close enough. And why do you all keep checking this with me? VEGETA: Because you’re the only one pathetic enough to know all this. >But the rest were new. ALL: Awwwwww... VEGETA: Not more made up stuff! >The first one was a snapping turtle pokemon, who had a lightning rod >style sword instead of an arm on one side. >The second was an ice crystal with a face, similar to a Metapod, but >much bigger. GOKU: Real good choice. That one promptly melted. >The third had huge rock muscles, looked like a Machoke, but was made >of rock and was huge, near 7 foot. >The last one was an air pokemon, with huge thunder like wings KRILLAN: I’ve decided that this guy seems to think thunder is a physical thing, >and a bloodthirsty look. >Giovanni smirked. "I SEE YOU RECOGNISE DRAGONITE AND MEWTWO, BUT >HERES AN INTRODUCTION TO THE REST OF THE FAMILY." KRILLAN: What is this, the Pokemon Mafia? GOKU: I’m gonna make you a Onix you can’t refuse. >"SLASH, A SNAPPING TURTLE POKEMON. IT CAN ATTACK WITH POWERFUL >PUNCHES AND KICKS, BUT ITS SWORD CAN ADMINSTER ELECTRIC >ATTACKS, SIMILAR IN POWER TO A RAICHU." KRILLAN: I’m SURE that that is ripped off from somewhere, but I can’t figure out just what... >"PIPOD, AN ICE/PSYCHIC POKEMON. SIMILAR TO A JYNX IN MOVES, BUT >ITS POWER IS VERY STRONG. ITS CRYSTAL BODY IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE >TO IMPENETRATE, EVEN VIA FIRE." >"ONMA, A ROCK/FIGHTING POKEMON. ITS ATTACKS ARE BASED ON >POWERFUL PUNCHES AND KICKS, KRILLAN: Um, buddy, you’ve said this already. >AND EARTH ATTACKS. ITS BODY IS NEAR AS ENOUGH, INDESTRUCTABLE." >"AND VAMPIRA, A FLYING/BAT POKEMON. IT'S DRAINS THE ENERGY OF ITS >POKEMON AND USES SLASH ATTACKS, ALONG WITH POISON/PSYCHIC >ATTACKS. IT IS AMAZINGLY FAST, THUS EVEN THE BEST ATTACKS CAN >HARM IT." GOKU: Now THERE’S a bad typo. He just said that the creature is an incredibly weak fool. VEGETA: So Jenova turned him into a loud Pokedex? What’s the point? >"PREPARE TO DIE." Giovanni ended. >Everyone was a bit nervous. They seemed impossible to defeat. >They steadily backed away. VEGETA: And backed off a cliff. >"MEWTWO, PSYCHIC." >Mewtwo blasted them away with a psychic attack, flooring everyone. >Julia stood up groggily, prepared to fight when a familiar voice. >"JULIA? NEED A HAND?" KRILLAN: For you see, Julia had just had hers cut off. >Julia looked up as a blast of lightning hit behind Giovanni, distracting him. >"Huh?" >And from the plane, Jin Kazama leapt from it and landed by her. GOKU: Breaking both his legs. >(It was Cid who cast the lightning spell) >"JIN!" she screamed and wrapped her arms around Jin. Instinctivelly, >she kissed him, softly on the lips, and whispered 'I love you.' VEGETA: Ughhh... KRILLAN: GREAT place to make out, bub. You might want to notice the huge F---in monster behind you. >Jin wrapped his arms around her and gently stroked her hair. YAMUCHA: Good Julia. Good girl. You get a treat. >'I love you too.' And gently, softly kissed her on the lips. >As they released, Jin smirked. "So, these things bothering you? Looks >like I'll have to answer with my Kazama calling card." GOKU: Why would he want the monsters to know his phone number? >"Oh sure, take all the fun!" >Hwoarang screamed landing by him. >"Hi, babe, avoid that Kazama like the plague!" he said, smirking to >Julia who had to giggle. >Gary jump next, ALL: YEAH! Jump, Gary, jump! Jump, Gary, jump! >by Team Rocket. >"Hey, losers, you want me to save you from these.....whoa! What the hell >are they?" Gary looked a bit nervy, seeing the powerful and unusual pokemon >in front of him. "Well, your here, we can go, come on Jessie, Meowth...." >James said all too quick. >Then, a voice appeared in his head. "Young trainer, don't go, your life >is starting. VEGETA: [SPLAT!] (voice) And now its ending. Goodbye. >Here is a little present which may help you defeat them....." KRILLAN: What, a nuke? >A pokeball dropped on his feet. YAMUCHA (James): Yeowww!!! >Cid heard the voice as well KRILLAN: I knew James had holes in his head, but…? >as he landed, it sounded so familiar. Was it... VEGETA: Satan? >Nah, it couldn't be. She died. And yet.... >Aeris? >Cid and Guile emerged from the plane, thoughts divided on Giovanni. >"Well, Red, Vincent, nice to see you welcome our visitors in." Cid >smirked. >Red nodded. "The two there with the 'Rs' are Jessie and James, and >the young girl is Julia Chang." Red said. GOKU: So we’re supposed to believe that Giovanni is just sitting there picking his nose? >Cid looked at them. Julia was a real stunner, way too young for him, >but Cid knew she was going to grow YAMUCHA: QUITE a pair… >up to be a fine young woman, and it looked like she and Jin were >besotted with each other, a good pair, he thought. KRILLAN: Umm, besotted means what I think it does, right? GOKU: Basically means attracted to or in love with. >But now, he, like Julia and Jin, and everyone had put everything >out of their mind, concerntrating on Giovanni. >Cid smirked as Guile readied himself for battle. >"Now, the party begins." VASH: PARTY!!! MORE NEXT PART!!! ________________________________________________________________________ _____________ Author’s note: We passed the half way point! [Cheers] Well, the fic is drawing together as the groups meet up, and the insanity can only increase. Will the Z warriors holdout? Or will Freeza get his revenge? >"Oh my god....." Sakura started. "If you say, they've killed Kenny, I'll kill >you!" Chun-Li said.
