Ah! Thank you so much-a!

Somari finishes the pizza in under a second.

Now-a-to look for those-a sacred gemstones!

Somari charges up a Super Peel Out and leaves Little Papa Beta's in a blur.

...Was that Ma-

(Both times he was blatantly stronger than either of us. And the only reason we're still standing here is because we got lucky.)

it. What more do we have to lose?

---

Super Peel Out- a move where the user crouches slightly down in a standing position, and begins moving their legs in a specific pattern to build up speed, all while remaining stationary in one spot. Once they have built up enough speed, the user takes off in the direction they are facing at extreme speeds. Can not harm foes and is still susceptible to melee or ranged attacks.

No.
Yes!
Yes.
NOOOOO!!

Do you think we're forgetting something?

---

The flaming fireball summoned slowly approaches Mega City.

---

Nah. We're robots. That wouldn't be possible.

Meanwhile, on an extremely large space ship, a group of Quints band together to confront another, slightly different dressed one.

....
Uh... Captain? We wanted to ask you something.
...Ask away, Famicon.
When the Council gave you permission to choose any Quint from the lower branches, including yourself, why'd you nominate 4827?
Yeah. He's not exactly the most... competent of us.
...Is that all? Yes. It's true. 4827's a naive fool, too easily distracted and too forgiving to visit earth and bring back Alter.
I didn't nominate him because I believed he could. Judging from the footage of what we've seen, that earth will chew him up and spit him out.
Then... why did you choose him?
Are you kidding? He's the bait. The test run. Once we complete a proper analysis of the situation and gain all the information we need we'll send the proper unit out to capture Alter ourselves.
Don't you think that's a little unnecessary?
Game Gear.
Yeah?

The Quint immediately draws out a saber and decapitates the Quint known as "Game Gear". As several moments of silence follow suit, the Quint responsible immediately speaks up.

Well!?
Anyone else think I give a damn about what they think is and isn't necessary!?

A. Rock and Mech-T immediately turn to Jazz.

Scarred and obliterated? I'm pretty sure I'd remember if you were the one who did that to me.
Unless... unless he was the one who...

*FLASHBACK*


*OTHER FLASHBACK*


A. Rock and Mech-T take a more tense posture at the realization of who Jazz is.
Oh, goody. And then there's this hole.
What could you possibly want from us?

---

Somari begins to grow impatient for his pizza.

Meanwhile.... somewhere.

Urgh, laying low is so boring!
Yes, because it's so much fun being literally scarred for life.
...Say. Other people probably have more of these medallion thingies, right? Whaddya think'll happen if we have all of them?
...No.
I say we look for 'em, so we can nab them ourselves!
No!
Hush, both of you. The items you speak of are being sought out by others. It would be most wise of you to give yourselves an advantage by playing off of that and preparing in the meantime. As we already now, hiding and running headfirst into action are surefire ways to become scrap metal.
...Or that.
I can abide by that. Just not trying to be evaporated into pure nothingness like before.

Quint shakes his hand.

Nice to meet you!
Now, what was I supposed to be doing again?
...Oh yeah! I can't let Alter cause anything bad to happen in the-
Aaaand he's already gone.
So. What now?

---

Wait a minute. I just realized something.
What?
With this medallion, I could help stop global warming!
Will you?
No.

Upon realizing he has crashed into Epsilon, he immediately gets up.

Whoops! Uh... I'm really sorry about crashing into you! I was just trying to talk to a friend... associate..? Er...

He points to A. Rock, who is walking away.

H-him. I was talking to him on behalf of what the Council of Quints ordered me to do, but it seems like he doesn't really take kindly to the futuristic type.

The pair stop abruptly as A. Rock confronts Mech-T.

Look, if someone wanted to come after us for having a stupid medallion, they would have did it a page ago. I'm pretty sure nothing we do for the time being will have any consequence.
True. But after everything that happened, what with that Jazz guy and Anthem and his cronies, I think we could go without a conflict.
...You're probably right. Maybe we should move to a private area-
*ahem*

Behind them, the green robot calls for their attention.

...And now we're too late. No going back from here.

They both turn around to respond to him.

..Alright, what do you waaaaaaaaaa-
Aaaaaaaaaaaw, crap, it's one of them.
One of what?
Remember the Council of Quint holes that are obsessed with me that I told you about? Yeah. He's probably one of them.
"Alterock", was it? Nice to meet you. I'm Q-4827. I've been sent by the Co-
Where'd they go?

"Q-4827" (I'm just gonna call him Quint) turns around to see A. Rock and Mech-T walking away.

H-hey! Wait a second!

Quint chases after them.

Look, you can't be here! Your very existence here could lead to catastrophic effects!
Would you believe me if I told you we've seen worse?
Have you?
....
......Great. They sent a total rookie after me. Hold on a minute, let me take care of this.
Look, we don't have to solve this with some arbitrary fight! Let's just talk this o-

A. Rock after activating Hyperattack Switch flicks Quint into a mountain with his finger. The two proceed to walk away again.

*Flashback*

You need to help find and bring back the being originally responsible for this catastrophe.
Is that really the answer to our problems? Tell me....

Who is it?

*End Flashback*

A robot in green stands over Mega City proudly.

Alright, I've made it. This must be The Chaos Zone universe's earth.
Now all I have to do is find Alter. Though where could he be..?

Not a half second later, he spots the duo walking across the sidewalk.

What about the meteor? It was a bluff, it'll be days until that thing hits.
Yeah, but when it does, the first person they'll go to is you.
D'aww, quit nagging. Nothing bad has happened to us yet, right? And I still have this fancy-schmancy amulet, right? So what's the rush for?

That's definitely him. I need to get his attention somehow, but I can't cause a scene....hmmm...
Oh, what am I worrying about? We're all the same people, so we should be equally reasonable! I shouldn't have anything to worry about!

The robot makes a beeline for A. Rock and Mech-T.

Meanwhile, on a monitor, someone seems to be watching A. Rock and Mech-T, who are walking around... somewhere. It isn't not on the ground.

So what if I almost froze the entire base toying around with this thing? There are tons more we can escape to should anything happen.
Yeah, but we might need to teleport later. I'm just saying. Right now our status is to lay low and avoid contact with others. Quartet Enterprises is already successful on a global scale, but that doesn't give us the excuse to--.
Attract attention, yadda yadda, all that stuff. Look. We'll be fine. I'm pretty sure the tension hit it's climax a while ago. No one's gonna come after us.

The monitor zooms out, to pan to a black figure turning it off.

Oh, great. It looks like the rogue Rock and his friend are off doing shenanigans. And even worse, the readings I'm getting from that scar of his are frightening. We'll have to make contact with this Earth soon.

No one backs out of the Council of Quints, Alter. Not even you.

"Defteros" transforms back, as well as losing their Adaptor.

And I am still the same. That was a mere form I took so that he could leave me be.

The figure sits down and takes a seat, but not before letting out a heavy sigh.

Nothing compared to the-a-sweet, sweet aroma of Chilli Dogs from-a-back home.
...But I-a-suppose it will-a-have to do.

Meanwhile, back at the Little Papa Beta's (which Wario is already at again for some reason), a familiar looking individual in red tries to order pizza

Excuse-a-me, I would-a-like to order a single pizza!

A. Rock teleports to a hidden location of another Quartet Enterprises Headquarters to meet Mech-T.

So. How'd your little bout with Fins go?
Eh. It was alright. He was wearing this weird pendant thingamajig that gave him some sort of power boost.

A. Rock extends his hand, showing him Fleet Man's Medallion.

I'm just gonna hold on to it for a little bit. See what it does and stuff.
Do you not realize there are people willing to slaughter to obtain the item you have collected?
Well, you know what they say, Anti-Omni. Finder's keepers. Loser's weepers.
Yes. Just let us hope not that it is not you who will be the loser should you be 'found out'.

---

Wait. Fireball? What the heck are you talking abo--
.....
.....
.....
Oh we dun goofed.

A. Rock immediately directs his attention to the Medallion.

....
...I'mtakingthisthingbye.

A. Rock grabs Sleet Man's Medallion and teleports to the unknown.

.....Well, there goes plan B.
(And just what do you plan on doing to combat this cyrokinesis of his?)
That's easy.
I can't freeze if I overheat from prolonged usage of this state... and the extra speed'll probably help me move better in this blizzard. So!

A. Rock then props up a pair of Earth Gauntlets, and charges fist-first at Bass!

A. Rock struggles against the blizzard, forcing him back into Defense Switch

W-well, that's just cold!
Anyway, let's heat things up, shall we?
.....Helios Blast!

Suddenly, a huge explosion made completely out of Solar Energy encompasses the entire area!

---

Helios Blast- a huge explosion made completely out of Solar Energy.

A. Rock looks at everything in astonishment, reverting back to his base form. He then smiles at Bass, knowing full well what he will do next.

Hey, man, I get that you wanna prove yourself, but you need to chill.

A. Rock begins to feel a slight strain, which is negated as A. Rock goes into Hyperdefense Switch.

Hmmm. Not bad.

A. Rock then throws a flurry of Ice Shards at Bass.
