Alice: I apologize for her. She's a tad wilder and more…suggestive.
its hard to believe that she split off from me.
DP:ah, and there it is, 2 halves to a whole.
BP:I wonder if they'll reunite…
*Tourney*
Quickman:*zips into the arena*you think you can keep up with me? I'm the fastest bot there is!
*the gong then rings*
Quickman:*zips towards brenton*

Heroes wanted
Pico:it's alright don't worry about it Alice.*he smiled for a second before laying down and putting his arms behind his head*(i hope Mia and Nene are doing alright…)*he then looked at the passing clouds*
DP:well at least the sky is beautiful.
Pico:yeah…(i always felt stuck in that tower ever since that time everything went crazy.and now that i'm free to explore this world…i don't know what to do.)*he then sat up*welp no use moping around all day.*he then stand up and stretched*
*at the tournament*
*Brenton dodged Quickman with just a scratch on his arm as he jumped over him*
Brenton:that was close.Quickman right? it's going to take more than speed to take me out.
Quickman:i'm the fastest thing Dr.Wily has ever created! you'll see.although i'll have to admit i originally came here to fight Megaman but sice he chickened out i'll have to take my anger out on you!!*Quickman moved faster as he moved in a circular motion to trap the Red Comet.and everytime he tried to move Quickman instantly slashed him.*
Brenton:sharp boomerangs huh? this might be fun after all.*he put his arm out as a device shot out of his costume he grabbed it*
Anita:is that a-
Roll:lightsaber?*as he pushed a button a green energy blade appeared he slashed at where Quickman was going to be so the robot master blocked with his sharp boomerangs*
BP:hmm…well we have some options, I hear there are tech shows in west city, we can see what all is in the woods, I hear fishing is well received over here…
*Tournament*
Quickman:*clocks and continues to go back and forth*(not good the saber is cutting through my blades I better end this fast)This is the end*jumps in the air and fires several boomerangs at The Red comet*
Pico:hmm…well since we've been to West City i can create a quick portal there and see what's going on.if anybody needs me i'm heading to West City!*he then made a portal which showed Capsule Corp*
Alice:if it's alright with you Pico i would like to go with you.
Pico:uh sure i guess.*they then walked through the portal as Pico looked at Alice for a few seconds before they continue to walk*so Alice…anything interesting about these tech shows going on right now?
Alice:oh my yes! inventors all across the planet coming here just to show the next big thing it's quite exciting actually.*Pico smiled looking interested*
come on i'll show you.*she then grabbed his arm with both of hers making the half Mobian blush*
Pico:a-alright.
*the Tournament*
*Brenton put his hand out as he smirked*
Brenton:you just lost.DRAGON COUNTER!!!!!*with one swipe like motion Brenton swatted the sharp objects back at Quickman pinning him to a wall which was outta bounds*
Announcer:Red Comet will proceed to the next round!*Brenton sighed as he walked up to him not expecting Anita to hug the warrior*
Anita:Brenton that was amazing!
Brenton:thanks kiddo…by the way i forgot to ask what's the prize if i win?
Megaman:according to Dr.Light they're called chaos emeralds.
Brenton:whose dumb idea was it to donate them??? aren't they filled with unimaginable power or something?…good grief now i really have to win so i can return them to its rightful place.
Alice:*takes him to various sights from new anti-gravity cars, to an instant french fry maker that was giving away free samples*mmm! you have to admit some of these are pretty neat. I mean, instant fabric maker can do a lot of good from clothe those who can't afford it, to make the next fashion trend. Oh!*points to the board showing off a training machine* why don't we head over there next?!
*at the tourny*
Anita:(wow he knows about the emeralds…better ask later)*smiles*Oh don't worry its not all of them. Plus, they can really do a lot of good, so long as in the right hands. Zot has always been good with magic gems, so winning a few for the boys back home would help advance a lot including this new treatment Doc is working on!
*as they reached the machine Pico went wide-eyed*
Pico:hey this kinda reminds me of the training room you built but…bigger.
Alice:Shallot must of donated her own one.she has more connections with alien tech then me so that makes sense.*they then walked inside it as Alice admired the alien tech*
DP:yep her personality is way different.
BP:i wonder if she'll act like that around us if we use our nanobots.
Pico:(that being said her love of science reminds me of Mia.)
Alice:ooh look Pico!*they walked up to a strange device*
Pico:uh excuse my ignorance Alice but uh…what is it?
Alice:oh its just a scouter.i think it's the one Alex made.*she then put it on and pressed the button showing a question mark next to Pico*(huh?)so what do you think?
Pico:it looks great on you?*he then coughed nervously*i'm hungry are you hungry? i'm gonna get something to eat.*the nervous Mobian walked to the nearest buffet and grabbed a lot of food.this in turn made Alice smile*
*tournament*
???:yeah well don't think you'll win them.*a grumpy black and red furred/quilled? Hedgehog hmphed as he walked away*
Anita:Shadow?
Shadow:i don't care if your group is friends with DN i'm winning them for myself.
Brenton:well i can't wait to kick your butt furball.
Shadow:we'll see…
Alice:thank you.*she continued to eat some of what pico got her and took him to every other display in the room* Well, that was everything.
*At the tourny*
Anita:oh, don't worry about shadow, he's just being over dramatic. We have a whole file on him. I'll give you the notes later.
*the tourny continues till the next match*
Roll:hm…says here that you are fighting next…oh dear…
Shadowman:Where is my opponent? There is battle that must be had!
BP:to say that this Earth has advance technology would be to obvious.
Pico:it's all very interesting.i'll admit if we had this tech on my Earth i might of been very lazy.
Alice:*Alice giggled at the thought*i see.well now that we're done here do you want to do anything else?
Pico:hey i'm the visitor here remember? i hardly know the latest trend around here let alone what to do around here.
Alice:hmm…follow me.*after flying the Mobian back home she showed him her lab*what do you think.
Pico:definitely cleaner then Docs lab that's for sure.it looks great Alice.
*Tourney*
Brenton:a ninja huh?*the Red Comet made a badass entrance by front flipping into the ring and landing in a cool pose*a ninja robot huh? sounds like this Dr.Wily watched to much anime before creating you.
Shadowman:don't you dare insult the great Dr.W-
Brenton:relax Robot Master i was just making a observation.let's have a good match.
Alice:I do a lot of experiments down here sometimes. from botanical to things that help keep me in check. Right now Im thinking of doing something new and could use an extra set of hands. Have you ever worked in a lab?
*tourney*
Shadowman:*throws shadowblade as he runs towards the Red Comet and slides into his legs almost knocking him out of the arena*
Anita:hang in there!
Pico:well yeah.i even have a lab back home.
Alice:really?
Pico:yeah.not only that but i've also seen my wife tinker with a few things so i kinda get how robotics work.
BP:thanks to me mind you.
Pico:so what do you need help with Alice? do you need help with a secret project?
Alice:something like that.
*Tourney*
Brenton:*he then regain his footing and kicked the Ninja in the head sending him in the air.he then saw Shadowman vanish in a puff of smoke and as he reappeared the Red Comet countered several of his projectiles*nice try! but to slow!!*to fast for the audience to see Brenton slashed Shadowman several times showing loose wires on his body*
Shadowman:grr…i give up.*Brenton then flew towards his friends*
Brenton:jeez i hope i don't fight another robot.i feel bad beating them like that.
Megaman:you can fly too? are you sure your not a robot.
Brenton:pretty sure yeah.*suddenly a tall blonde teenager wearing a robotic suit walked up to them*
???:hi Roll Anita and Rock!
Anita:Zeta what are you doing here?
Alice:I've been working on a new formula. Thing is, I don't know what it does exactly. I kinda made it while sleep deprived.
DP:makes sense…though you have to wonder if that means its dangerous?
BP:mm. Doc usually makes his crazier things when he sleeps, if he sleeps at all.
DP:oh come now we both know he has a bed.
BP:ah, but does he use it?
DP:…
*Elsewhere*
Zeta:I was asked to check up on you both. How is it going?
Anita:great! Brenton is about to go all the way and fight Shadow!
Zeta:sounds cool!
Pico:so you want me to be your Guinea pig eh? alright.
Alice:are you sure? it could be dangerous.
Pico:you bet i am! besides i'm sure whatever you accidentally made it probably won't be that bad.
Alice:well alright.*she then gave it to him as he drank it*well?
Pico:it tastes bitter.*Pico blinked in confusion as his body glowed with amplified aura*whoa! what a sugar rush.
*Tourney*
Brenton:(who is this Zeta anyway?…actually i think I've seen a picture of her in Mias apartment.)speaking of which i should prepare for my next fight.you lot just catch up while i get busy.*after a few matches it was now him vs Shadow as the 2 clash. and after beating him he sighed from exhaustion*
Zeta:wow…he actually beat him. I would have thought the second chaos control would have sealed his fate.
Anita:See! I told you! he's really good at beating people up! he's as strong as a dragon!
*in the other dimension*
Alice:wow! look at you, your radiating with energy!*begins to write it down*
what do you feel it doing to you so far?
BP:*eyes glow in pico's head as if to signify a change*Well, it works on a high level as we can feel it too.
DP:Honestly I feel like I just got drenched in magic! Its great! So far no down sides.
BP:well if its like a sugar rush, we'll eventually crash…
DP:nah…we got this!
Alice:well, if all of you are feeling confident, I can set up a small obstacle cource.
*the half breed smiled as he and Shadow shook hands.he then walked up to his friends with chaos emeralds*
Brenton:well that is one way of putting it.here Anita you can hold onto them.*her eyes beamed as she grabbed them.they then eventually returned to Zot*
Anita:Brenton?…how did you learn about the chaos emeralds?
Brenton:Sarah has a lot of books and i love to read so i just happen to read one about them.
Anita:oh that makes sense.*they then walked to Coles apartment as he opened the door.*
Brenton:oh Ann?
Anita:hmm?
Brenton:stay safe ok kiddo?*he then tossed her a check.
Anita:hmm but this is the prize money.
Brenton:not mine. it's for you and your mom ok?
*in the other reality Alice and Pico walked to her training room as Pico dodged and fired a aura beam instead of a sphere at a robot*
Pico:phew!
DP:we're packing heat!*as more robots surround him Pico made a sword out of magic and quickly cut them in two.he then had a magical circle appear under his feet*
Pico:*suddenly familiar blue gems appeared on his gloves as well as a blue hooded cloak*it's been awhile since i summoned these.
Brenton:uh alright kiddo.*she then grabbed his hand and pulled him until they reached a restaurant as they ordered lots of food*(i want to ask about why she changes her age but i don't want to pry since i can do the same thing with magic. i've done my homework and found out she is 1 of the leaders here.but she's normally what 6? 7? kids shouldn't co-run a place like this.)*he then smile*i've gotten attached to this place.
Anita:really? i'm so glad.
*lab*
Pico:they're a gift…from my boss.*sighs*
Alice:oh? is everything alright?
Pico:yeah just…thinking about the past.
Anita:I knew you would love this world as much as I do, and the tower with all of its benifits! Oh! I should take you to the fun world on floor 6! I can get on every ride and anything you want made!*thinks*maybe another day though. The sun is starting to set.
*elsewhere*
Alice:…*approaches*you really miss them, huh?
*after a few delicious meals Brenton was laying on the couch deep in thought.*
Brenton:(i sure miss Sakuras warm hugs as i sleep though.)sigh.(i hate sleeping alone without my wife.)*he then closed his eyes*
*other world*
Pico:yeah…sorry but i'm just so worried about everyone back home.
Alice:don't be i completely understand.come on we'll continue this another time.*the next day Pico woke up with Alices arms around him*
Pico:(how do i keep getting into this situation?)
DP:well aren't you the ladies man.
Pico:(i swear to Zot Dark i'll get inside my head and kick you out myself.)*Alice moved in her sleep making Pico flinch as he blushed*
BP:well, she must really like us. Its not are fault we're so charming.
Alice:mmm…brenton*slowly opens her eyes*…*blushes*oh…I-im sorry I…um hm…*looks away embarrassed*
*Zot*
*at this point a knock on the door was heard after that, a letter was slid under the door with a seal on it*
Pico:it's fine Alice.*he then put his hand on her head before scootching over to get up*don't worry about it.*he smiled at her before putting his hands in his pockets and walked out making Alice smile as she followed*
*Zot*
*Sarah yawned before getting up and grabbing the letter*
Sarah:hmm? that seal…*she then walked up to Brenton and slightly nudged him waking him up*Brenton dear? you have a letter.
Brenton:me? but i'm just a *yawns* temporary resident.who would write a letter to me?*he opened the envelope*
Alice:so, what would you like today? Anything you want, I'll cook it for you.
DP:she seems eager to please us…
BP:perhaps she wants to make us feel better?
*Zot*
Dear Brenton,
We, and by we I mean me, have heard great things about you in the last few days. Already you are making an impression on our young new candidates and have already won us some emeralds and got on Anita's good side. If one of my generals is impressed and recommends me someone I have to meet them. Please come to the 13th floor to my office around lunch time. There are so many questions I have.
-Shadowblade XIII
Pico:(aww that's sweet of her.)well i could go for something sweet.
Alice:hmm then i'll make you some pancakes.*the mobian sat at the table as he watched Noble run up to Alice*Noble do you and Sabel want pancakes?
Noble:yes please.
Alice:then i'll make a few stacks for the two of you as well.
Noble:yay!*the kids then sat next to Pico*
Pico:so…where's your Mom?
Sabel:with Dad not being able to do his duties as demon king Mom has to keep everyone in the Demon Realm happy.
Pico:(Demon King?…i thought he was a Saiyan.)
*at Zot Brenton walked through the floors until he reached the 13th floor looking nervous.*
Brenton:here goes nothing…*as he opened the door he saw a secretary at her desk typing so he walked up to her*uh excuse me i-
???:Shadowblade will see you now Mr.Son.
Brenton:oh cool!*he then walked up and entered the room*
Sabel:it happens sometimes even when he is here and can't get out of one of our many mother's arms. It just depends on the day, I guess…
Nobel:*sees the pancakes*Hooray!
Alice:*gives each one a big stack*alright everyone, enjoy!
*Zot*
*as he entered the room he could see a wide window that showed the outside. The Sky was a nice blue color and the acre of woods seemed to go on forever. In front of that window was a desk and chair with a computer with what looked like business on the front of it. The red carpeting, red trim and big open room made it seem rather lacking save for one or two bookshelves on the side of the room. As he walked in further he could feel nothing. There was no presence, no energy signiture, no devilsih aura. Save for his breathing, the only thing making noise was the computer. The door then closed behind him and he turned around to gaze at it. That's when heard a voice ring out from where the desk was*
Shadowblade: Sorry about the doors, they have a knack to close on their own. I swear its either a malfunction or ghosts. Anyway…why don't you come over here and have a seat.
Alice:*Alice placed each stack of pancakes in front of them making the children devour their breakfast.Pico soon followed looking happy.*
Pico:(it makes me wonder how he has the energy to do all of this.)
Alice:enjoying the food?
Pico:y-yeah.
Dark Pico:of course being surrounded by beautiful women doesn't hurt either.
Pico:(true.)
*Zot*
Brenton:(just what is he? his here but at the same time i can't feel his presence?)uh sure.*as he sat down he raised an eyebrow*so Shadowblade right? your letter mentioned something about having questions about me? i'll be happy to answer each question truthfuly…especially since it was my fault that i and Pico switched places in the first place.
Sabel:so, what's all gonna happen here today?
Alice:who can say? things here are never dull and always surprising.
*Zot*
Shadowblade:ah, yes Pico*looks to the window dramatically then back to brenton* Don't worry about him. If anything that fox is probably doing what he does best and saving your world from any evil. He likes to do that a lot. Anyway Im sure you have as many questions as I do*pulls a few drinks out from under his desk* so let's get to it. First off, exactly how are liking the tower? Not too clustered I hope?
