Manhattan, New York - Soldier's Apartment


Once the Soldier and Demo finally made it to the Soldier's apartment, the Soldier was flabbergasted at what he saw.

"What the blazes is going on here! Why is all my hard-earned supplies clumsily placed in these conveniently stacked boxes!?" The Soldier yelled in an obviously irritated state... that was when he saw the note on the topmost box.

Seeing the note the Soldier quickly ripped it off the box and began reading.


"We regret to inform you that your monthly payment rent has not been fulfilled... I have been vacated!? They cannot vacate me! Do they know who I am! I am a veteran of war! Didn't they see my medals that I have designed, made, and RIGHTFULLY EARNED!?...MY MEDALS!" The Soldier yelled as he quickly began tearing through one of the boxes looking for the self made war medals that he had painstakingly crafted himself.

After a a few minutes of searching he did find them thankfully all in the topmost box the note was taped to. Having found them the Soldier smiled happily in relief as he then calmly closed the box... then the Soldier just sat there on the ground... not uttering a word... Then suddenly he stood up with the box in hand.

"Welp... Looks like it is about time that this old soldier gets a real place of his own... and you can come with me old friend!" Said the Soldier as he dropped the box he was holding on the ground. Then wrapping his arm around the Demoman's shoulder the Soldier spoke aloud.

"Come on comrade! Grab some boxes and let's go! I know a good dumpster out back" The Soldier replied in a... awfully cheery tone as he then picked up the a small stack of boxes. "Now what are you waiting for? Let's go!" Soldier spoke as he then began making his way to the stairwell.




Voile

Kirby continued running after Marx and Magalor. However unfortunately for Kirby, Magalor had created an electrical barrier. Of which the moment Kirby came into contact with it he received a massive shock of electricity.


"AAAAAAHHH!!!" Yelled Kirby as he was electrocuted by the barrier. After the electrocution Kirby fell back onto his little pink back, stunned, but not unconscious.




Inside the Gate of Darkness - Russia

Thanks to Samus's grappling beam/booster combo, she was managing to slow the hulking suit of armor down quite a bit. That combined with Shepard's shotgun fire, the Dullahan was slowed to a crawl.

However the Dullahan was only 10 yards away from Elesis... with Elesis at such a close distance, the Dullahan stopped struggling against Samus and Shepard,but rather it got into a defensive stance with it's large shield being held right in front of him. That is when the shield started to glow a bright pink... and the gate that Elesis was charging was opening...

As the allied gate began to fully open, the sound of a loud howl echoed throughout the realm as a bright light started to emit from the gate's portal.

Inside the Gate of Darkness - Russia


Shepard quickly ran towards Elesis as she kept focusing on the oncoming demons "Please tell me that is a good thing, that big guy won´t stay there for long" she warned the swordswoman. Samus on the other hand noticed that her boosters were starting to overheat ("If these things managed to pull that colossus, this knight should be nothing") she thought pulling harder as the floor she was standing cracked with the force of her strength and the boosters going at max power.

Roxas house


Looking at the house, the Froslass noticed it was quite simple in comparison to the world where the blonde boy came, she could guess he was from there just by the resemblance between him and the others in that dimension, but she decided to not comment about it, she still needed to deal with the armored man who, in her opinion, was oblivious to what were his priorities.

Mara took a breath to relax and looked at the digivice that the fox gave her ("Arceus knows what goes through your head, you are better at this kind of things than me, troubling people´s minds is more my kind of stuff.. I wonder if..") she grinned mischievously while tampering with the little electronic device

Times Square - Manhattan


So she doesn't mind? From my ability to read people's minds, I came to a conclusion that this girl with her robot really didn't seem to mind saving me and all... however, it's not right for me to just take things and not give back. What do I give back, however?

I looked at the bulletin board where the current time was constantly being updated. 9:27 AM. Still a good time to eat. I could use some of these real life money to treat the robot lady and the blue wolf swordsman to some nice brunch.

"I can't just accept a kind act without return. Can I help you with some breakfast by any chance?" I asked. While I was never a good cook, I located a great breakfast restaurant near my apartment earlier this month. No one could deny a hearty brunch; she looked skinny as a board anyway.


"I thought you had a steady job, Soldier, but your situation seems ta be just as bloody bad as mine!" Demoman exclaimed in a surprised manner at first, but he decided to help with carrying the boxes to whatever dumpster Soldier decided to move to... or he was going to, until he saw a thick layer of dust on Soldier's plain, beige plates.

Demoman had a hidden principle: You could have a rusty gun that doesn't fire properly. You could have dusty pants, dusty boots, dusty shirt, whatever. But never leave your plates dusty from not serving any food for a long time.

"Ay, you've been starving, lad?" Demoman pointed at the plate, wiping on it with a finger to leave a distinct mark amongst the dust field. "No! I cannot let a friend go bloody starving!"

Demoman reached into his pockets to pull out some crumpled dollar bills. He counted... 1, 2, 7, 8... 8 dollars. That would be enough to buy a deluxe omelette from a good breakfast place he knows. Perhaps he can take this poor starving friend out to a meal... and maybe hook him up with a job. He did see a sign that says they were looking for employees...

"COME ON!" Demoman dropped the box next to the stack still left, grabbed Soldier by the arms, and dragged him with himself as he returned back to where they came from: Times Square. "I know of a good place where we can sit down, eat, and have a little chat. IT'S MY TREAT!"


Voile


"They're off, I guess." Patchouli looked up as the three took off, one more forcefully than the others. Koakuma was frantic, however.

"He... he just electrocuted the pink ball... thing!" Koakuma stuttered, panicking at the sight of such a sudden attack. "Miss Patchouli, shouldn't we do something-"

"No need to." Patchouli said indifferently. "Those two are our clients, Kirby is an unwelcome guest. They just did us a favor of ridding him."

Patchouli looked out towards the direction the three flew off and sighed, a slight smile on her lips. "Besides... that pink ball... he won't die just because of a little stun... in fact, it will probably take a lot even from me to take him to lethality."

"Now we are talking, I forgot to get some breakfast because this guy" Gaige gestured to the remaining bits of Deathtrap that disappeared "needed some patchwork after some not so perfect experiments" she finished as her stomach started making the obvious noise of hunger uh.. sorry about that, thanks

"Anyways, a free meal is always accepted, lead the way my lady" the mechromancer put her hands inside her jacket´s pockets

Times Square - Manhattan

The Soldier just looked at Demoman with a rather confused expression on his face, unsure of what his friend was talking about.

"What?" Said the Soldier quite simply and bluntly as he suddenly found himself being grabbed, and pulled away from his own boxes which he had dropped the moment Demo started pulling him away.


"My boxes- Did you say eat?" The Soldier commented as he was essentially dragged away by Demo.



Voile

And just like Patchouli said, Kirby was not killed by the volt of electricity he took head on.

After a few seconds of twitching, the blackened - due to being burned by electricity - Kirby sat back up. Still a little dazed by the electrical volt he experienced just now, he tried to look around but only say blurry blobs around him. That is when Kirby literally shook the char off his body before standing back up.

Noticing that Marx and Magolor escaped Kirby looked a little upset. Turning around to face Koakuma and Patchouli he began to try and question them about what happened to Marx and Magolor.

"Poyo poyo. Poyo!?" He spoke in a child-like manner as he began gesturing to the location he last saw the two villains from his world at.



Inside the Gate of Darkness - Russia

With the ally portal opened, another howl could be heard echoing throughout the area as Elesis stood up and jumped out of the way.

"Why don't you tell me!?" Elesis said with a cocky grin on her face as a large light blue, wolf-like creature lunged out of the gate, striking and pinning the large Dullahan night on the ground.

Almost immediately the wolf beast known as Travash began ripping into the Dullahan's armor with razor sharp claws.


"Okay now that I got that done... Let's go destroy that enemy gate!" Elesis yelled as she began rushing to the Wooden bridge, in hops of crossing it so they can finally end this goddamn demon invasion.




Detroit - Michigan

Zero who had got done dealing with the rather irritating Maverick which was responsible for the destruction of Detroit, continued to walk through the ruins of the city in hopes of finding Nitori, and especially X. Thankfully for him he saw Nitori in the distance... and she had X with him.


"Nitori!!!" Zero yelled as he began running towards Nitori's direction. Unfortunately for Nitori, X had passed out not even a few minutes ago.

Manhattan - New York


Great, I am able to repay my debt somewhat, then. That is a relief. Now, I wonder if that blue wolf swordsman would take up the offer...


Detroit - Michigan


"It seems he passed out."

"Dammit, prep the evac, let's get him out of here."

"Nitori!!!!"

Nitori was treating to the heavy damage that X took, repairing any crucial pieces first and then worrying about the exterior "wounds" like scraped paint and dented metal. Unfortunately, X passed out from delayed recovery, forcing Nitori to prepare to evacuate the area so that X could further be treated in her workshop. Just in time, Zero found Nitori, so the three could return easily.

"Zero! You're not hurt, are you?" Nitori asked, worrying about Zero's safety first and foremost. "Did you find any clue as to what really happened here?"

"No... it's okay... I can treat my wound's myself. I wouldn't want to ask anymore of you..." Said Dust as he stopped to look at Gaige before continuing to walk away again.

However the moment food was mentioned Dust stopped in his tracks as his stomach also growled. When this happened his sword Ahrah began hovering beside him again.

"It sounds like you are hungry Dust. You haven't eaten in a while... Why don't you take up the nice woman's offer?"

"Quiet Ahrah! I would but... right now I can take it. We can find some food."

"You're being awfully stubborn right now Dust. Is something wrong?"

"No! Nothing is wrong! I just feel like I couldn't ask her of doing anything for me. Not after what happened to her today."

[B]"Yes... you do have a point there... but she is offering you out of kindness. To repay her debt for you saving her. The least you could do is kindly take up her offer. You know I worry about you Dust. You haven't actually eaten anything solid for a while now. So right now just kindly take her offer. She is flat out willing to return the kindness of you, and that mechanic girl."[B] Replied Ahrah as Dust just sighed.


"Okay fine Ahrah, you win." Said Dust as he turned back to look at Sana, and Gaige.

"Hey if it's alright... I wouldn't mind taking up your offer for food... I... kinda am hungry right now..."

Roxas' House - Tokyo



For a while Roxas just made sure that everyone was well of and were healthy enough to go out again, as he doubted they were planning to stay for long.

At one point one of them asked for a mouse like character. "Nope. Sorry, I didn't see anyone like that where I found you guys. Are you missing anyone?" Roxas asked back.

Manhattan - New York


Metro Omelette House. When I was fresh into the real human world and was dying of hunger, it was the owner of this small breakfast restaurant that saved me, explained to me what happened to me and countless other video game characters, and pointed out that the poke-dollars I possessed at the time would be worth a lot of real money in this world. I owe an innumerable debt to the owner; the least I could do is promote her restaurant.

"Welcome!" The owner, an amiable, chubby (for the lack of a better-sounding word) woman named Mrs. Irvine, came out of the kitchen with a large smile on her face. This restaurant never had any employee; it was the owner and her 24 year old daughter who ran the small restaurant located on the floor level of a large corporate building. It wasn't a large eatery by any means: a counter with several seats and three tables with 4 chairs for each were everything the restaurant offered for seating. And yet, the food offered were the most delicious in the area... perhaps in the entire city.

"Mrs. Irvine." I bowed. "A seat for three, please."

"Of course. You can take that table over there." Mrs. Irvine pointed to one of the three tables with four seats. The restaurant was empty, except for a lone person at the corner of the counter seats drinking a coffee. I motioned to the guests to take a seat first.


"There it is!" Demoman shouted as he dragged Soldier all the way back to the heart of Manhattan and pointed at a small restaurant with a sign reading Metro Omelette House. "That place has the best omelette I've tasted; it's better than Engi's! It's my treat, let's go have a feast there and talk about what we're gonna do."

Gaige could smell the food as she followed the Bluenette, something better than that thing they have called fast food, and a good place" she complemented while thanking the owner.

Sitting on one of the chairs, the engineer managed to relax "So what do you do around this city? there aren´t many characters on this area for what I know" she spoke trying to break the ice.

Inside the Gate of Darkness - Russia


Barely managing to regain her footing, Samus fired a charged beam to the floor and somersaulting to a safe area of the place ("Some places are weirder than others, another day, another new thing") she thought searching for the redheads and found them heading to the second portal.

Meanwhile the commander holstered her shotgun and activated her omni-blade, slicing her way through demons, she commented to Elesis "So we do what with that portal, seal it, destroy it, or what?"
