Chapter Text
The Nimble floated through the vast emptiness of the planets space, Kaboodle was gathering supplies that would be needed, Kit was recalibrating her blaster, and Gobbles was back to using his tablet while it charges.
It was silent, an odd but calm silent, the thrill of adventure flowed from Kit, ready to uncover the new world and preventing its destruction, Kaboodle with his usual mood just hoping to get the job done without casualties, and Gobbles... well, he's learning.
"1 MINUTE UNTIL ARRIVAL!" The Nimble chirped, with its usual jolly demeanor.
It was going well, until it wasnt.
"WARNING! MULTIPLE SHIPS APPROACHING!"
Chaos erupted, Kaboodle dropped a bundle of items and ran to the controller, while Kit started booting up the defense system.
"Kaboodle! Are the shields-"
"YES! THEY'RE FINE! IS IT SYNTAX?!"
Kit opened up a view of the front of the Nimble, the sun of this world making it hard to see who it was, but the ships where huge in numbers.
"I can't tell! The sun is making it hard to see!" Kit fumbled with the controls, trying to get a clearer picture.
"OF COURSE THIS WORLD HAS TO HAVE A DAY AND NIGHT CYCLE!" Kaboodle groaned, and started typing in the console. "Im starting up the additional boosters, we'll have to book it if its Syntax!"
"How could they already be in this world?!" Kit yelped, while flicking some switches. "We didn't even see them on the outside!"
"FANCY CAMOUFLAGE TECH OR SOMETHING, WE GOTTA GET OUT OF HERE BEFORE THESE BASTARDS-"
A loud crackling noise boomed through the vast emptiness of space, followed by a raspy male voice.
"Greetings extraterrestrial beings, identify yourselves and state your intentions with Mobius, or face a swift capture at the hands of the Eggman Empire."
<------------>
"First the Black Arms, then the Babylons, and more recently the Ancients... I will not let more aliens stomp over us like ants just because they see us as inferior beings, they shall fear the Eggman name!"
The spacecraft stopped moving, its outer engines rotating, "Are they planning to flee? Maybe their spacecraft doesn't have combat capabilities, it will make their capture swifter."
Silence filled the vast emptiness of space, until a small crackling noise could be heard, and a feminine voice started speaking. "Hello? Can you hear me? We mean no harm, we just want to-" The voice cut off, replaced by a more robust male voice. "LISTEN HERE YOU-" Static, "LET US THROUGH OR I SWEAR TO GOD WE'LL-" More static filled the space.
Eggman tapped the intercom button, "You are not on the position to make threats, may I remind you how outnumbered you are? Surrender yourselves and we may work out a peaceful resolve."
<------------>
"Kaboodle! What are you-"
"KIT, NO! We are not surrendering ourselves to this maniac, this world clearly has dealt with unknown beings like us, we're leaving this world NOW."
The additional boosters finished warming up, they where ready to book it at a moments notice.
They just had to find an opening.
