SMDA Chapter 4 part 1: Ally round up Sonic Side

*Megaman's World*

Tails had just arrived in Megaman's world after leaving Sonic and Tsukasa to gather their friends and the other Kamen Riders. He was out front of Megaman's home, light labs. Before he could do anything a red robot dog comes dashing from around the corner of the yard and heads toward Tails with excitement.


?: Roof! Roof Roof Roof Roof Roof!

Tails: Whoa rush, down boy! Do you remember me?


Doing what a dog normally would do Rush jumped on Tails and starts greeting the genius fox with licks to his face. But then Rush heard his owner call for him.


?: Rush, where did you go? What's with all the bark?


His owner found out just as he rounded the corner of his house while carrying a tool box. He was surprised to see who Rush was barking at.


?: Tails, how are you doing and what are you doing here?

Tails: I've being doing well, glad you to see you again, Megaman.


The two heroes greeted each other with a handshake and spoke a little bit catching up after their last encounter.


Megaman: So what brings you by my world and where's Sonic, I thought he'd be with you too? *pats rushes head*

Tails: That's what I've come to talk about it's kind of a long story. You won't believe what I went through today, but Sonic and I need your help.

Megaman: Well why don't you come inside we'll talk there, I was about to bring my dad his tool box since he's working on something new. I'm sure he, Roll, and Auto would be glad to say hi to you.

Tails: Sure, it would be nice to see them again.


Tails and Megaman walk toward Dr. Light's laboratory where he, Roll, and Auto were moving things around while the doctor was working on something to help the town of mega city. Megaman came in with the tool box with Tails following him.


Megaman: Dr. Light, I brought you your tool box!

Dr. Light: Thank you, son.

Megaman: We also have a visitor too.

Dr. Light: Oh, and who might that be?

Megaman: You remember Tails? He's a friend of Sonic's who helped us stop Dr. Eggman and Dr. Wily.

Tails: Pleased to meet you again, doctor.

Dr. Light: Like wise, what brings you here to our world and where's your friend, Sonic?

Tails: It's a long story, I was going to tell Megaman here but I thought it'd be best to tell you all as well since I'm here.

Dr. Light: Please do tell us, what's going on?

Roll: Yeah, we want to help in anyway possible.

Tails: Well as I told already told Megaman, Sonic and I need his help. What is this help you're all wondering? We are traveling to different dimensions to find the chaos emeralds.


Tails explains to everyone in the laboratory the events that went down in his world. From the confronting of Dr. Eggman and Metal Sonic with all the chaos emeralds, to Sonic's battle with Metal which then lead to Sonic using the fake emerald to send the real emeralds out of their world, and the arrival of their newest ally who brought one of their emeralds back that also lead to the second battle against Metal Sonic who is now wanting the emeralds for himself and to take over the other worlds that the emeralds land in. In addition Tails also brought up that Metal Sonic betrayed Eggman and sent him away do to the scientist forgetting to stabilize his creation's obedience so that he wouldn't betray him. This surprised everyone in the lab.


Roll: This all sounds terrible!

Dr. Light: I'am completely speechless of all of this. When I first met Ivo in that pocket dimension he seemed like the type that would make sure everything went smoothly and made no room for mistakes. But to hear he forgot to keep his own robot in check makes me think of how Wily messed up when he made Bass.

Tails: I know it's a lot to take in but with Metal Sonic now powerful due the upgrades he got and on the loose wanting to expand his conquest outside of my world, I ask of you Megaman, will you help me and Sonic? For the sake of our world, your world, and the other worlds that will be at risk.


Megaman thought about it, he didn't want to have to fight anymore robots even if Metal Sonic wasn't from us own world. But he also wanted to help Sonic, Tails, and everyone else that was in danger of the Robot Sonic. He then turns to his father/creator to see what he thinks.


Megaman: Should I help them?

Dr. Light: It's your choice Rock, you do what you want to do.

Roll: We will support you in whatever you choose to do.

Megaman: In that case, Tails, I shall help you and Sonic with your quest and so will rush, right boy?

Rush: *Barks in agreement* Woof!

Dr. Light: Go and be a hero once again my son.

Megaman: I will let's go.


But before The blue bomber and his dog could leave with Tails they all heard a whistling tune. It was a tune that Megaman, Dr. Light, Rush, Roll, and Auto were familiar with. In comes a red robot about the same size as Megaman and Roll sporting a red shield and yellow scarf.


Dr. Light, Roll, and Auto: Protoman!

Megaman: Blues, what are you doing here?

Protoman: I heard you were leaving to help Sonic and his friends again. I'm coming along too the more help you have the better.

Megaman: I'm cool with that idea, you alright with that Tails?

Tails: Sure, Sonic did tell me to get you and whoever else I could find that'd be willing to help so the more the merrier.

Protoman: Alright then, you lead the way.


The four heroes head back outside to prepare to leave for mobius.


Dr. Light: Good luck, my sons.

Auto: Go and win the good fight!

Roll: Come home safe!

Megaman: Don't worry we will.


But before they could go anywhere they were interrupted by a big portal from what looked like either another world or another time. Out from the portal was a but big green robot dragon.


Tails: What's that?

Megaman: I don't know, but I can thankfully say it's not a mecha dragon, the thing doesn't look like it's made by Dr. Wily.

Protoman: That doesn't matter, let's beat this thing and get to Sonic's world!
Megaman: Right! *turns to Dr. Light, Roll, and Auto* You all get back inside the lab we'll take care of this!

Dr. Light: I know you can, good luck son!


All three of them got to safety. As Tails, Megaman, Rush, and Protoman fought the dragon, three futuristic robots stepped out of the same portal the dragon came in from to fight it off. The blue one looked a lot like Megaman and he was joined by a Red Robot with blonde hair and beam saber plus a dark colored robot with spiky orange hair and two guns in hand, these were the Maverick Hunters.


X: *Talking into a communicator* This is Maverick Hunter X; Zero, Axl, and I have found Eregion in the year 20XX. We are about to stop it before he does any kind of damage here.

Commander Signas: *on the other end* Good work X, finish it off and head back to base as soon as possible!

X: Roger that! Alright everyone let's do this!

X, Zero, and Axl all jump in to attack the mechanical dragon from their time. They notice Megaman, Tails, Rush, and Protoman helping with the fight.

X: You four sit this one out we got it covered. He's pretty easy for us to beat.

Megaman: But can help too-

Zero: Do as he says we can deal with this guy ourselves!


The four watch the Maverick Hunters take on the dragon. He was weak to the countless amounts of slashes that Zero was delivering from his sword the Z Saber.


Megaman: *in his mind * "Oh wow, those guys were right that thing is weak to them. It's a joke compared to Wily's mecha dragon. Then again it's not doing anything really other then standing in one spot firing stuff at them and then switching it's place. At least they aren't jumping from platform to platform to avoid dying while trying to kill it."

Zero: X, Axl he's about finished deliver the final shots now!


X charges up a buster shot while Axl rapidly shoots at the dragon as a distraction. When X was ready Axl moved aside and let X fire the shot ending the dragon's rampage.


Axl: Alright, we did it.

Tails: That's was pretty cool what you guys did.

X: Thank you, but we must take our leave now. We appreciate you holding your own for a while.

Tails: Wait, before you go is it possible if I ask you guys for help with something?


The Maverick Hunters were surprised to heard an organic being ask them for help. Plus they never met anyone like Tails before.


Zero: What kind of help are you asking for?


Tails explains to the three robots of the future about his dilemma on his world. He tells them about Metal Sonic and how he plans to take over multiple worlds which could include their's and megaman's world as well. The hunters thought about it with Axl speaking first.


Axl: I think we should help him, don't ya think?

Zero: Yes, this Metal Sonic the kid told us sounds like a maverick. Sounds very much like Sigma if it's hell bent on conquering lots of worlds.

X: I'll let Commander Signas know we have to deal with this one.

Tails: So you'll help?

Zero: Yes, we don't want a maverick like him effecting our world and the other worlds too.

X: *transmitting to Signas* Commander Signas this is Maverick Hunter X do you copy?

Commander Signas: I read you loud and clear X, what's going on did you beat Eregion?

X: Yes we did, however we have another maverick to deal with though.

Commander Signas: Where is this other maverick?


X explains to his commander about the Metal Sonic character that he was told and how the robot plans to take over many worlds including their own. Not wanting to let any supposed mavericks roaming around free the commander of the maverick hunters allows X and his team to help the other worldly beings in stopping Metal Sonic.


Commander Signas: Alright, Good luck to you and your team. Come back alive.

X: I'll make sure to do that. *ends the transmission*

Tails: Alright so we all ready?

Protoman and Zero: Yes.

X and Axl: Yeah let's go.

Megaman: I'm as ready as I'll ever be.

Rush: Woof!

Tails: Alright we are heading for mobius now!


Tails sets his dimension watch on a course for his world with six robots along side him and all disappear in a flash of light heading for Sonic's world.



*Mario's World*

Knuckles arrives outside of the Mushroom Kingdom near Peach's castle. The red guardian knew if he was going to get Mario and Luigi's help he had to ask the ruler of the Mushroom Kingdom for her permission first. Seeing as how Mario and Sonic are good allies with each other they can't turn down help from one another. As Knuckles approach's the front doors of the castle he's greeted by two toad guards in front of the door.


Toad guard 1: Halt, who goes there?

Toad guard 2: State your name and business!

Knuckles: My name is Knuckles, I'am friends with Sonic the Hedgehog who is an ally of Mario, Luigi, and your ruler. I've come to ask the princess for a favor it's an emergency!

Toad guard 1: You sound very honest. You may enter the castle!

*The doors swing wide open*

Toad guard 2: The Princess is right inside for you to talk to.

Knuckles: Thank you.


Stepping in inside he walks toward the thrown room to talk to the Princess in getting the Mario brother's help. Knuckles enters the room where he meets the ruler of the Mushroom Kingdom and her assistant Toadsworth.


Knuckles: Greetings your highness, it's been sometime since we last met. *bowing in respect*

Princess Peach: Yes it has, It's good to see you again, Knuckles.

Toadsworth: Yes quite right.

Princess Peach: Oh, but where is Sonic I thought he'd be here with you too?

Knuckles: That's what I've come to speak with you about. Sonic requires the help of Mario and Luigi.

Princess Peach: What for if I may ask?

Knuckles: You remember our enemy Metal Sonic from the Olympics?

Princess Peach: Yes I do.


Knuckles tells Peach about what has gone down back in his world and how Sonic had sent the chaos emeralds out of the reach of both Eggman and Metal Sonic from ruling mobius. He also brings up that they were attacked by the doppelganger of Sonic who was recently upgraded and doing things under his own will. Even bringing up the new ally they teamed up with who brought one of the emeralds back.


Knuckles: So with Metal Sonic now under his own free will and looking to find the chaos emeralds to not only become powerful enough to destroy everyone around him he wants to rule other worlds outside of mine, this could include your world too. So I ask will you allow the Mario brothers' to help me and Sonic, your highness.

Princess Peach: My goodness, this is rather serious isn't it? By all means I will allow Mario and Luigi to go with you to help Sonic, you have my word.

Knuckles: That's great, thank you.

Princess Peach: However Mario, Luigi, and Yoshi are over at Donkey Kong island right now as we speak.

Knuckles: What, why are they over there?

Toadsworth: If memory serves me right I believe it has to do with Wario disturbing the DK crew.

Knuckles: What about?

Toadsworth: Wario ate at least one banana from their huge horde and the monkeys are in an uproar over this.

Knuckles: *facepalm* That's what the dispute is about, it's just one banana what's the big deal?

Toadsworth: The Kongs have dealt with their horde being stolen a lot of times in the past and now they're more protective over it than they were before. If only the toads had the same kind of back bone like the kongs do when it comes to protecting the Princess from being kidnapped by Bowser.

Knuckles: *in his head* "Yeah don't we all wish for that." Anyway what if I went over there to help Mario with this problem? It will speed things up for me since Sonic and I need him and his brother, the sooner the better.

Princess Peach: If that's what you'd like to do come with me.


The princess and Toadsworth lead Knuckles to another room in the castle where Professor E. Gadd was in said room resetting a computer connected to various warp pipes with each one having coordinates leading to different places in Mario's world. It makes traveling much easier for the people of the Mushroom Kingdom. One of the warp pipes is set up to reach DK island, this is what Mario and Luigi used to get to the island and settle the dispute that's currently going down.


Professor E. Gadd: Ah greetings your highness, and you too Toadsworth. I see you brought in a guest, you must be one of Sonic's friends I take it. I know who you, him, and his friends are I've seen you in the Olympics with Mario and company a lot. So what can I do for you all?

Princess Peach: Professor, we would like for you to send Knuckles to Donkey Kong island. He's going to help Mario and Luigi settle the commotion Wario is making over there.

Professor E. Gadd: Very well, I shall set up the pipe's destination it should be ready in just a minute.


As the Professor was restarting the pipe system through his computer, Knuckles took the moment to speak with the Princess once more before taking his leave to help the Mario Brothers and then take them back to Mobius.


Knuckles: Are you sure you and your kingdom will be safe without Mario? I know that Bowser is bound to do the same shtick he always does.

Princess Peach: I'm sure we'll be fine. What's more important is that you, your friends, and Mario save the worlds that are in danger, besides Bowser hasn't been up to anything lately so I'm sure there will be no other problems on the side of what you're doing.

Knuckles: If you say so. But if anything DOES come up just have the Professor here contact Sonic and we'll be there, okay.

Princess Peach: We will, did you get that Professor?

Professor E. Gadd: Loud and clear, okie dokey Knuckles, the pipe for DK island is set, jump in whenever you're ready!

Knuckles: Alright then, it was a pleasure meeting you all again, stay safe and don't worry Mario and Luigi will be in safe hands too.

Princess Peach: I know they will and good luck in saving the worlds!

Toadsworth: Quite right, also show that hooligan Wario who's boss, Master Knuckles!

Knuckles: Will do.


After bidding farewell to The Princess, Professor, and right hand man to the Princess, Knuckles jumps into the pipe leading to Donkey Kong Island hoping to get Mario and Luigi's help as soon as possible after he deals with Wario.



*On Donkey Kong Island*

Mario, Luigi, and Yoshi with the assistants of Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong are looking around high and low for Wario hoping to end the trouble he caused for the DK crew. The Kongs were up inside trees while the three heroes of the Mushroom Kingdom were looking on solid ground. They were doing everything they could to find the alter ego of the Jump man. However one grouchy Kong didn't think their efforts were good enough and started to rant thinking he can do a better job.


Cranky Kong: What's the hold up you whipper snappers? Stop dillydallying and find that intruder! I bet I can find him much faster than I could of made my latest game design!

Funky Kong: You haven't made any new games since DKC3, Cranky Dude.

Cranky Kong: Don't talk down to your elders, you surf boarding hippie!

Mario: It's not-a easy to find Wario than you would-a think. He's-a very good at hiding and-a use the element of surprise.

Funky Kong: Yeah leave this to Mario, his brother, and their dino-dude friend, they've dealt with this Wario guy more times than we have. Plus Donkey dude and Diddy dude are also helping too.

Cranky Kong: Yeah bout time those two good for nothing lazy kongs did something productive.

Mario: Hey Luigi, check-a over those bushes by the warp pipe.

Luigi: Okay.


As Luigi was checking the bushes a familiar red being comes out of the pipe and lands behind Luigi. As the tall green plumber turn around he jumped in surprise to see Knuckles standing in front of him.


Luigi: WHOA! *takes a second to realize who he's looking at* Oh it's-a you. What are you-a doing here?

Knuckles: Good to see you again too, Luigi. Where's Mario?


Just before Luigi could answer, Mario comes running over to where Luigi is to see what he was shouting at. Mario was surprised to find Knuckles standing on the grounds of DK island.


Mario: Oh hello, Knuckles, What-a brings you here?

Knuckles: I've come with a message from Sonic and I. We need you and your brother's help with something big, but first I'm going to help you with your Wario problem and then I'll explain everything afterward.

Mario: Okie Dokey, right now we are-a searching for Wario as we-a speak. The greedy thief has-a gone into hiding. Come on we'll-a meet back with-a Yoshi, Donkey Kong, and Diddy Kong.


Our six heroes met up at the front entrance of the kong banana horde located under Donkey Kong's tree house. They stopped the search for a moment to figure out what to do next much to Cranky Kong's annoyance.


Cranky Kong: HEY! No one said you could rest yet, you still have to find that intruder!


Knuckles wasn't in the mood to hear someone telling him to do a better job at anything. He needed to get Mario and Luigi to help him and Sonic find the emeralds and end Metal Sonic's terror.


Knuckles: It's called making up a plan B! I guess you're unaware of this concept giving your old age!

Cranky Kong: What did you just say to me?!

Diddy Kong: *gets between Knuckles and Cranky Kong* Okay Okay, let's all relax a bit.

Funky Kong: *getting a look at Knuckles and calling out from the tree house* Whoa dude, I've never seen you before, what are you some kind of red mole?

Knuckles: I'm not a mole I'm an echidna and my name is Knuckles! I've competed with these five in the Olympics in the past! Anyway what are we going to do about Wario? You haven't found him on land or above land yet?

Mario: No, like I-a said we haven't-a found him anywhere. We were still-a searching when you arrived.

Knuckles: Well it's a good thing I'm here because I can dig under ground, maybe he's there.


But before the guardian of the master emerald could get started a man in purple overalls with a yellow shirt and hat bursts out of the ground under luigi's feet causing him fall over on his butt. Wario lands right in front of our six heroes with a sinister grin on his face.


Knuckles: So finally decided to come out of hiding, you coward? You've saved me the trouble of digging you out. Now it's time I give you a knuckle sandwich.

Mario: Enough of the games, Wario. There is-a six of us and one of-a you!

Wario: I'm-a not going anywhere, not until I-a get the gold and or treasure on this island.

Donkey Kong: No, you will stop now! There is nothing on this island for you and you're going to pay for taking a piece of the banana horde!

Cranky Kong: *Yelling from the tree house* Well don't just stand there telling him off with words you whipper snappers, get to kicking his fat butt and showing that fatso that you're all true video game heroes!

Mario: Right, Let's-a go! *Jumps toward Wario*

Wario: I'm-a gonna win! *Jumps toward Mario*


The battle has begun, Mario and Wario exchange punches and kicks to one another with each one colliding with each other. With Mario not equipped with a power up the two look a likes were evenly matched. Diddy Kong jumps on to Wario's head distracting him long enough for Mario to upper cut him in the chin sending the alter ego in the air five feet up and then landing on the ground. As he gets up Luigi charges himself up to launch like a green missile and hit the treasure thief. However as Wario sees Luigi launching toward him he moves to the side, waits for Luigi to land on the ground, and then Wario sits on top of Luigi letting out a gassy fart causing Luigi gasp for fresh air. Wario gets off of the green plumber after farting on him.


Luigi: AAH, Mama Mia! I can't breathe!

Knuckles: WOO, That's a nasty smell! Thank god we doesn't do that at the Olympics.

Wario: WAH HA HA HA HA, that's one-a down and-a five more to go! Who's-a next?

Knuckles: Don't think the rest of us are going down that easily.


Knuckles and Wario start duking it out rapidly throwing punches at each other only for the fists to collide with one another. But then Knuckles digs underground to bring on a surprise attack. As he's underground Wario is being shot at by Diddy Kong with peanuts for his pistols while in the tree tops. Every peanut that was shot Wario went between dodging them and eating them.


Diddy Kong: Stop eating my peanuts you jerk! I'm trying to hurt you with them!


Yoshi collects the left over peanuts and turns them into eggs to hit Wario. With every throw the green dinosaur made it missed, the Mario look alike was quick with his reflexes, he even threw some of the eggs back at Yoshi with at least two of them hitting him. But the other eggs that he caught he threw back a Wario. This time one of them hit him in the face.


Wario: Ah my face!


Suddenly Knuckles burst out of the ground with Wario retrieving another upper cut to the chin. Wario lands on the ground once more doubled over in pain. Donkey Kong points his coconut gun at Wario to let him know that he's not aloud to move an inch.


Mario: Alright-a Wario, your game is-a over!

Knuckles: Yeah what Mario said. I'm on a pretty tight schedule right now and I don't have time to deal with you so here's how this is going to work; Either you cease your attempts and you come help me, Mario, and Sonic save your world from being conquered or-


But before Knuckles could give Wario the second choice a strange portal opens up catching everyone's attention.


Knuckles: What is that? *in his head* "Shoot, don't tell me Metal Sonic knows I'm here."

Luigi: Mario, what's going on?


Mario was silent, he had seen this portal before after a weird encounter he and his brother had awhile back, but wasn't sure if it was the same one. Soon his wonders were answered as a washing machine rigged to work as a time machine came out of the portal. The door opened and a small anthropomorphic bunny dressed like Mario came out of the machine followed by three more bunnies dressed like Luigi, Yoshi, and Princess Peach as well as a bunch of more white bunnies including a bunny with what looked like a pair of high tech glasses attached to it's face.


Knuckles: What are those things?

Mario: Oh, it's just-a those crazy little rabbids. I was-a wondering when they would-a return.


However as Mario's reunion with the rabbids was happening four more beings came out of the time machine, one was a female Barbarian, a short long-nosed blue being with a royal looking outfit, a big blue anthropomorphic frog, and a person with a big nose, a purple hoodie with a white circle on it, and no arms and legs. As the bunnies caught site of the four beings they tried hiding behind Mario, luigi, Knuckles, and the others.


?: Man that thing is cramped I can't believe we all were able to fit inside that thing. Where were we? Oh right, Alright you troublesome little rodents come back here and nothing will happen to you all.

Mario: *confused* Excuse-a me, but who are you and why are you-a and your other friends trying to hurt these-a creatures?

?: My name is Rayman, the blue glute's name is Globox, The Barbarian's name is Barbara, and this here is Grand Minimus, the king of the Teensies. As for why we are chasing the rabbids; they've been causing me and my friends trouble and we're trying to stop them from doing anymore trouble.

Knuckles: Sounds like what we did to a certain someone.

Rayman: I see you know the rabbids too.

Mario: Yes, me and my-a brother have met them before. We are aware of these creatures being-a troublesome but these five you-a see here are allies of mine. As a matter of-a fact all of the Rabbids are-a friendly to-a me and everyone in my world. *as he holds on to the rabbid with the high tech glasses*

Barbara: That could explain why their outfits look the same as these people.

Globox: And why they're so calm with them too.

Rayman: Tell us, who are all of you?



As Mario was about to speak the unexpected happened.



Luigi and Knuckles: MARIO, LOOK OUT!



Wario charged right into Mario knocking him to the ground causing him to drop the rabbid with the headset to his face who then ran up Donkey Kong's tree house to hide.



Donkey Kong: I'm sorry Mario, he gassed me by surprise! *calling out as he's covering his nostrils*

Knuckles: *Furious* That's does it, I have no time for games! I guess I'm going to have to put his lights out for a while just to get him to stop!



Knuckles and Wario start duking it out once more and they were evenly matched. As this was happening Wario grabbed some sand and threw it at Knuckles' face and started to escape for the warp pipe leading back to the Mushroom Kingdom.


Knuckles: GAH! Dammit my eyes!

Diddy Kong: Hold on knuckles I'll get you some water to wash out the sand! Everyone else get that fat guy before he leaves for Mario's home, pronto!


Everyone including Rayman, his friends, and the Rabbids all followed Diddy's orders. One by one they all tried to stop the thief starting with Luigi, to Yoshi, to Barbara, to Globox, to Grand Minimus, and finally Donkey Kong, but they all missed as the first member of the DK crew tried to clapped Wario into his big hands to catch him but Wario managed to dodge it and lunged toward the pipe back to the Mushroom Kingdom. But then he felt something grab his foot, it was one of the hand's of Rayman as it pulled Wario back away from the pipe and threw him toward the sandy beaches of the island where the Rabbids all got around and started to beat up and tie up the alter ego of the famous jump man. The Mario Rabbid was going to deliver the last hit to knock Wario out cold but Mario offers to do it with the Mario Rabbid who agrees to it. After one hard hit Wario was instantly a sleep.


Luigi: Good-a job brother.

Mario: Yeah, we're all-a winners! *high fives his brother and the Mario Rabbid* Now we must-a heard what Knuckles wanted to-a tell us earlier when he arrived.


Couple of minutes later everyone files into Donkey Kong's tree house so that everyone could hear what Knuckles wanted to say. This was also something that Rayman, his team, and the Rabbids wanted to hear too.


Cranky Kong: *in annoyance* Talk about a full house.

Mario: Alrighty Knuckles, what was it that you-a wanted to tell us? You said that you and Sonic need-a my help.

Knuckles: Ah yes that, we need you and your brother's help in our search for the chaos emeralds and stop our enemy, Metal Sonic, who is hell bent on looking for the emeralds and taking over many worlds outside of mine.


The guardian of the master emerald explains how the ordeal first started and then told everyone that Metal is possibly aiming to conquer their worlds too.


Diddy Kong: This is terrible, we can't let that robot get away with this.

Luigi: Oh yeah!

Funky Kong: This metal dude sounds more crazier than that crazy croc, K. Rool!

Knuckles: Which is why Sonic told me to bring back whatever help I can find when I came here and bring back to mobius. What do you say Mario, are you, Luigi, and Yoshi in or out? The princess told me it's alright with her if you helped Sonic out.

Mario: What if she gets-a capture by-a Bowser again?

Knuckles: Then Professor E. Gadd will inform Sonic or I about it happening.

Mario: Okie Dokey then, I'm-a in! Luigi, Yoshi?

Luigi: Let's-a go!

Yoshi: YOSHI!

Knuckles: Alright, anyone else?

Cranky Kong: *Shoves Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong to Knuckles* Take my lazy good for nothing grandson and his nephew with you too! Anything to get them out and about being heroes again rather than sitting around sipping on banana milkshakes all day.

Tiny Kong: Oh come on Cranky like you do anything around this island other than grumble about everything.

Funky Kong: Yeah who's more of the bum here?

Cranky Kong: You won't be calling me that when I say you, Tiny, Dixie, and I are going to protect this island while Donkey and Diddy are away finding emeralds and fighting robots!

Knuckles: Ooooh okay...

Rayman: Me and my friends are coming along too and it would be wise to bring the rabbids too.

Globox: Yeah I want to protect my wife and 650 children from any outside threats other than these little white rodents.

Grand Minimus: Yes, if those rabbids are going to cause any trouble for anyone it should be for that metal monster.


The rabbids looked over to what was being heard as they were watching over the unconscious Wario making sure he didn't wake up to do anything. They're willing to help Mario out but are still fearful of Rayman and his team given their past.


Barbara: Plus I'm sure Betilla would want us to stop an evil being that would want to take over our world too.

Knuckles: Alright then it's settled now let's get to mobius.

Mario: We-a better bring Wario too.

Cranky Kong: Yeah get that trouble maker out of here! I don't want him disturbing the island again and I'm sure you don't want him causing trouble for the princess either!

Tiny Kong: Good luck guys and be careful.

Funky Kong: We all support and solute you dudes!

Knuckles: Thanks and you too!


Knuckles sets his watch up and takes himself, Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Rayman, Globox, Barbara, Grand Minimus, the Rabbids, and the unconscious Wario back to Mobius. Leaving Cranky, Funky, and Tiny alone.


Cranky Kong: Alright to start things off. Funky, get that time traveling washing machine doohickey off the island. Send it down the pipe to the mushroom kingdom for all I care! I'm going to work on my next game design. *Walks off to his cabin*

Funky Kong: *sigh* This is so not going to be fun.



*The Sands of Time*

Meanwhile, Sonic had entered the sands of time after leaving Tsukasa to fight Metal Sonic. The first thing that Sonic saw a big white bullet train sitting in the middle of nowhere.


Sonic: This must be the time train that Tsukasa was talking about. It would explain the lack of tracks in front and from behind.


One of the doors to the passenger cars opens up with a woman in a cafe uniform standing in front of the entrance.


?: All passengers waiting to board the Den-Liner may enter the train now! *looks over at Sonic* Do you have an admission pass, sir?

Sonic: *pulls out the pass* Yes ma'am I do.


Sonic boards the Den-liner and makes his way into the cafe car. As he got in he saw four Colorful monsters; a red one with two big horns sticking out of his forehead fiddling with a brain teaser, a blue one looking like a turtle drinking coffee, a yellow one with one big horn sticking out of his forehead and looks like it's wearing a fuzzy coat sleeping with his arms crossed, and a purple one wearing headphones drawing pictures with crayons. There was also an old man wearing a suit eating a plate of rice and a young man in his late teens to early 20's with long black hair sitting next to the red monster. As Sonic was taking site of this the blue hedgehog wasn't sure what to make of all of this.


?: Welcome to the cafe car, my name is Naomi and I'll be glad to serve you anything you ask for.

Sonic: Thank you.


Sonic took a sit at one of the empty tables. He needed a minute or two to take in what he has seen so far. The young man and the 4 monster saw the hedgehog sitting there. They never seen anyone like Sonic before.


?: *whispering to the red monster* Momotaros, do you think that's some kind of imagin? I've never seen one like him before.

Momotaros: Heh, he looks like an imagin, but he doesn't smell like one.

?: Maybe you should ask him yourself, senpai.

Momotaros: Don't tell me what to do, turtle. *does a double take* But for once I do agree with him we should check to see if he's up to no good. What do you say, Ryotaro?

Ryotaro: Yeah I think it's best to do that. No telling what this creature can do or what it's up to. *He and Momotaros approach the blue hedgehog*

Sonic: *looking at the two* Can I help you with something?

Momotaros: Yeah, are you an imagin?

Sonic: A what? *raises an eyebrow*

Momotaros: Don't play stupid with me you porcupine bastard! You know what I'm talking about!

Ryotaro: Whoa, wait a minute, Momotaros! If he doesn't know what the imagin are than he isn't one of them.

Sonic: Ugh, first of all who the heck are you guys if I make ask and second what is an imagin?

Ryotaro: I'm Ryotaro Nogami, the red imagin that was interrogating you is my partner, Momotaros. The blue one is Urataros, the yellow one is Kintaros, and the purple one is Ryutaros.

Urataros: Please forgive senpai, he can be very hot headed.

Ryotaro: As for what imagin are; they are beings from a far future that grant "wishes" to those they form a contact with. After fulfilling said wish they will fly into the past from the contact holder and mess up the past.

Sonic: Oh, so what about these four?

Momotaros: We're different, we choose to not mess with the flow of time. So you can say we are the good guys.

Kintaros: *waking up* Since you're not an imagin, what are you?

Ryutaros: And mind if we get your name too? I can't hear your answer.

Sonic: Isn't it obvious I'm a hedgehog and my name is Sonic, Sonic the Hedgehog!

Ryutaros: Whoa, so you are real? Why didn't I recognize you? That's sooo cool I knew it! *brags to Momotaros* I told you he was real!

Momotaros: Oh Knock it off you snot nosed brat! It's probably just a person in a realistic costume.

Sonic: Nope, no costume, I'm the real deal. I came from my home dimension Mobius and into Tsukasa's and your world seek help. He gave me this pass so I can get on board the Den-liner.

Momotaros: Wait a minute you said Decade sent you?

Sonic: Yes, and I'm looking for someone on this train right now. Do any of you know where I can find Kamen Rider Den-O anywhere?


The cafe car was silent for a minute, Sonic was confused by this. The silences was then broken by Momotaros.


Momotaros: If you're looking for Den-O then look no further because you're looking at a him...

Urataros: Us to be specific.

Sonic: Really?

?: That's right, these four imagin and Mister Ryotaro here are Kamen Rider Den-O.

Sonic: Who are you?

Kintaros: This is the Owner of the Den-liner, he allows us to use it to travel through time to stop the imagin that mess with the flow of time.

Owner: Precisely, now I must ask you Mister Sonic, what is it that you need Den-O's help for?

Sonic: I need him...I mean I need them to help me alongside my friends and allies from other worlds including Decade and the other Riders to fight an enemy of mine who plans on conquering many worlds outside of mine and yours.


Sonic explains to the Den-liner crew what happened back in his world regarding his fight, how he sent the emeralds away, how he met Decade and got into the sands of time, who Metal Sonic is, what his intentions are, and what the chaos emeralds are, even showing off the emerald he got back from Tsukasa as an example of what the emeralds look like. Everyone was surprised and listened to the Hedgehog with much curiosity. After Hearing Sonic out no one knew what to think.


Owner: *pondering* Interesting, very interesting. This threatening situation is on the same level as the timeline rewrite that occurred in 2011.

Naomi: I can't believe that someone just as bad if not worse than the imagin and shocker has intentions of taking over many worlds and not just yours and ours.

Urataros: You sound pretty honest, Sonic, I've heard and made many lies before but I've never took you as a liar to begin with, you sound pretty convincing.

Ryotaro: We'd be willing to help you and Decade but it depends on what Owner says. After all the Den-liner is his train.

Momotaros: Hey, old man, what do you want to do? Are we helping the porcupine and the riders or are we out?


Owner gave it another ten seconds to think. He didn't want the den-liner being used in a way it shouldn't be used and it had be wrecked twice before, but he knew that villainous threats will attempt to mess with the flow of time and it is Den-O's job to not only protect the flow of time but as a Kamen Rider it's also Den-O's job to protect living kind and serve justice. Owner made up his mind.


Owner: I've made my decision, we shall help Sonic and his team. This Robot Sonic he talked about is quite a big threat to not only our worlds and the other possible worlds that are in danger, but the flow of time itself. So we must do everything we can to protect all of it.


After hearing those words come from the old man everyone was thrilled, Sonic was especially relieved and grateful to know that he got some help to join him.


Sonic: Alright, I really do appreciate you guys lending your support! If we all work together we can surely stop Metal head.

Ryotaro: Of course, helping others is what a Kamen Rider does.


Just then, Sonic was receiving a transmission from his dimension watch. When he answered it he found out it was Tails contacting him.


Tails: *Back on Mobius on the one end* Sonic, can you hear me?

Sonic: Loud and clear, little buddy. What's up?

Tails: I'm back in our dimension and I got Megaman's help as well as his brother Protoman and their dog Rush to help too. Plus three robots from the future of Megaman's world.

Megaman: Long time no see, Sonic!

Sonic: Alright Tails, good work! Also sup' Rock! We are going to need all the help we can get. Has Knuckles come back with Mario and Luigi yet?

Tails: *turning his head to the right so see a bright flash* Speak of the devil he just arrived and yes it looks like he got them as well as Yoshi, Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, and Wario of all people. Plus a bunch of beings we never met before.

Sonic: Sounds like the knucklehead did something right for once and hit the jackpot!

Knuckles: What'chu say?

Tails: Anyway where are you and where's Tsukasa?

Sonic: I'm on a time traveling train called the Den-liner, Tsukasa told me to get Kamen Rider Den-O's help while he fought off Metal moron by himself and then would go round up the other riders after kicking his metallic butt.

Tails: And did you get their help?

Momotaros: You bet your fluffy rear end he got our help!

Sonic: Yeeeah what he said. Now that I've got their help we're going to get Tsukasa with the other riders and then head back for mobius to plan our next move. I need you and Knuckles to get Amy and the others and bring them to the freedom fighter base.

Tails: We're on it Sonic, just come back safe.

Sonic: You know I will. *ends transmission*

Ryutaros: Hey, did I just hear that the Mario Brothers are helping us?

Sonic: Yes they are, I'm really good allies with them.

Ryutaros: This is so cool! We're going to be working with not only Sonic but also the Mario brothers! So cool!

Urataros: Easy Ryuta, just calm down.

Sonic: How do you know who I'am anyway?

Ryutaros: What? You mean you don't know?

Sonic: Know what?

Ryotaro: You're a well known video game series and character, both you and Mario. Ryutaros often plays both of your games and loves them both.

Sonic: Is that right, that's pretty cool.

Momotaros: Yes yes it's very peachy to hear.

Kintaros: Just like your skin, Momonoji!

Momotaros: *Smacks Kintaros' head* Shut up, bear! What are we waiting for let's go find Decade and the riders and head for the porcupine's world!

Sonic: I'm not a porcupine, I'm a Hedgehog, ya red bull!

Momotaros: Did you just call me an american energy drink?

Ryotaro: Come on, let's head to the front of the Den-liner! We'll show you how we control it.

Sonic: Cool, let's go!


The three head for the front of the time train leaving the others behind. They arrive inside of the lead engine, inside was a big window at the front showing what's ahead of them and there was a motorcycle at the center.

Sonic: What's with the motorcycle?

Ryotaro: This is what we use to control the Den-liner manually, it's called the Den-Bird. It can run on it's own sometimes but when we want to go some place specific we either take control straight away or we use this rider pass with a ticket to go to a certain point in time when it's inside the Den-Bird.

Sonic: Cool, is this train capable of inter-dimensional travels?

Momotaros: We'll find out after we get Decade and the other riders. Let's go, Ryotaro!

Ryotaro: Right! *gets Possessed by Momotaros*

Sonic: Whoa! Are you imagin like part ghost too?

M-Ryotaro: We can posses any living being, so you can say that. Now watch this awesome transformation!


Momotaros pulls out the Den-O Belt and wraps it around his waist. He pushes a red button next to the belt's symbol at the center which turns red and plays a loud jingle.


M-Ryotaro: Henshin! *moves the rider pass in front of the belt's symbol*

Den-O Belt: Sword Form!


Holographic rectangles fly out of the center and form a costume on the user. Then pieces of red armor form out of mid air and land on the costume with a red peach sliding down in front of the eyes of the helmet splitting into two pieces becoming a visor. Now He was become Kamen Rider Den-O.


Momotaros: Ore...Sanjou!

Sonic: Huh, so this what Den-O looks like, nice.

Momotaros: heh heh, I'am the best of all the riders. Now let's go!

Sonic: Yeah we have allies to find, emeralds to collect, and a metal head to stop!


Den-O gets on the motorcycle to drive the time train so he and Sonic can find Decade's current location to round him up and the other riders.



*Back on the Death Egg in Sonic's World*

While are heroes are gathering help from allies old and new, Metal Sonic has plans of making an alliance of his world. After finding many spare Metal Sonic robots laying around in Dr. Eggman storage vault the robot doppelganger has taken it upon himself to activate the spare Metal Sonics to clone them all and serve him as his soldiers. The reason for this is because Metal Sonic is going to bring the members of Shocker by force to strike a bargain.


Metal Sonic: My Metal Sonic troops, I have made you all for an important task. I want you to bring the members of the evil organization known as Shocker back to the Death Egg! We are going to form an alliance with them if we want to take down Sonic and his worthless friends as well as finding the chaos emeralds! Now go and get me the those evil tyrants so that I may speak with them! The coordinates for the dimension have already be set for you to get them and bring them back!

Metal Sonic troopers: YES SIR!


With the orders given the Metal Sonic troops head for the world of Kamen Rider to round up whatever members of Shocker they can find.


Metal Sonic: Forming my alliance is good well so far. Once I have shocker under my rule and the robot copies of a couple of Sonic's worthless friends finished I shall be under stoppable, even if I have to expand my new found team with more valuable minions and allies. I hope you come prepared Sonic, because you will not live long enough to witness what MY team will do you, your friends, and the many worlds you will try to protect!

Now that we know Sonic and his two friends have got help on their ends next time we check on Tsukasa and Kaito on their search for the other riders in chapter 4 part 2.
