Sonic

*Moments after the second knock at the 'door'*

"What the hell was that?" asked Joe rubbing his head as he got back on his feet. "Felt like a shockwave, two shockwaves to be precise," said Emeral also getting to her feet, "You two ok?" she asked lending a hand to Katarina. "I think so," she replied getting on her feet, "So what was that?" asked Kalshion. "I don't know, we'll check it out, while you two go find out what you sensed at the Mountain," said Joe. The rest agreed and went off on their separate ways.

*Seconds later at the edge of MM's realm*

Rose and Sonic stared at the barrier where the breach used to be. "The breach has been sealed," said Rose looking at Sonic. "Was this the source of that shockwave? MM stuffing a cork in the hole?" replied Sonic. "Could be, lets go back, there was that other energy pulse we felt coming from the Tendo Residence," said Rose going off to a sphere like light blue energy bloob out of several more blobs, which was Ranma's dimension. Sonic looked back at the barrier, "What the?" he said examing what appear to be a slit, or slot in the barrier. "Naaa...Couldn't be," he said taking off after Rose.

*Meanwhile...*

Kalshion, Katarina, and the cat were on their way to the mountains. They had supplies with them which they picked up from the shrine, and were expecting to be gone a few days gone. "I guess we can do some training while we go find the source of that energy we picked up from the mountains," said Katarina. Kalshion nodded, carefully looking around. Katarina just watched, "He is still so alert," she thought to her self.

DS was following them about a kilometer behind, observing their actions. "This might prove useful, since they are after this energy source, which they know almost nothing about, I could lay 'bread crumbs' to make their search last longer, keeping them out of my way," he thought to himself. While he floated by in his cloak shield, he past two young teenagers heading towards the city. Suddenly the girl seemed to be aware of DS's energy cloak, as she began to look around, probing the area. DS a bit surprised, but impressed by her ability to sense evil increased his cloak and vanished from her range of sense.

"That's odd," said Emily looking back towards the city, "I was sure I felt someone real evil near by." Jeremy looked at her, "I didn't feel anything, but then, you can sense evil better than I can," he replied. "It's a sham though, it felt like an attractive evil man," she said smiling, which annoyed Jeremy, "You and your obsession over evil men," he said softly. Emily gave the look at him, then smacked him, "Shut Up!" she yelled. Jeremy rubbed his cheek, "One of these days, I'll learn to keep my mouth shut," he thought.

*Back at Home Sweet Home, or as Sonic and Rose now call it, the house of weird...*

Ranma laid on the floor where he fell while Akane and Nabiki looked at him, "What on earth happen to him?" asked Akane, "And what's with all this sand on him?" Nabiki looked the other direction, "Beats me," she replied, making Akane a bit suspicious.

Rose and Sonic appeared behind the girls in a cloak shield and instantly looked at Ranma, "Maybe weird is too weak a name," said Sonic telepathically. Rose nodded, "Maybe the house of bizarre dealings would be better?" she replied.

Just then, Akane turned around looking behind her, "What's wrong Sis?" asked Nabiki. "I just had a feeling someone else is here," she said looking back at Ranma. Rose smiled for a moment then looked at Ranma, "Now, what should we do about this?" she asked. "Well, the best thing we can do is remove the residual shock wave from him for now. I don't want to touch the curse on him until we know more about it," he replied. Rose giggled, "You're just as curious as me to what this curse does, aren't you?" she said. Sonic turned and grinned, "You got me, since we know the old man doesn't use any life threatening c urses, I figure it is ok." he said winking.

Akane's eyes widen a bit, "Am I hearing things, or did I just hear a giggle?" she thought to her self. "What the?" shouted Nabiki suddenly. Akane looked at Ranma and saw the blue energy pulse being drawn out of his body, and dispersing. Akane watched in surprise for a moment, then smiled, "So, it isn't my imagination. Thank You," she thought. Rose hearing Akane say 'Thank You' smiled then disappeared with Sonic out of the house.

*On Top of the Cat Cafe...*

Sonic looked around looking at the people do their daily activities, as Rose watched Shampoo come out of the Cafe, get on her bike, and make a delivery. Sonic stretched, "People are sure busy still at 4pm," he said looking back at Rose. "Yes they are," she said taking out her Pendant that MM had given them, "Do you suppose we should go talk to him?" Sonic sighed, "I suppose it won't hurt," he said, "But before we do, let’s check on that sudden pulse of dark energy."

With the flick of their fingers, Sonc and Rose had changed back to their more normal look, followed by another flick teleporting them to the ground. "I believe it from came over here," he said pointing down the street leading to the main shopping area. Emeral agreed, and they went off only to stop by a stand with the owner watching a portable TV.

"We have just received word from the American Military that it successfully made an alien-counter attack a few moments ago. The footage you are about to see was taken from the Hubble Telescope just minutes ago," said the newsman. The picture flickered and showed Happosai dancing around with a pair of panties followed by an energy laser blasting him from behind. Joe eyed the television, "Since when did he get back into space?" he asked. "Maybe this is connected somehow?" responded Emeral.

After a few moments, Emeral and Joe's eyes moved over to the left, observing two teenagers. One of them, male, was wearing a white shirt with buttons at the color, and some blue jean shorts. The other, female, was wearing a black shirt that showed her belly with leather shorts and a leather jacket. "What an interesting Aura," said Joe telepathically. Emeral nodded, "And I can't sense their thoughts, only their emotions," she replied.

As the two stared at them, the teens became aware of someone staring at them and looked over at Emeral and Joe. A bit surprised, Emeral and Joe glanced once more at the TV, then walked off in separate directions. "Interesting," said Jeremy, "What? They were only staring at us for a moment," replied Emily. "I wasn't referring to that," said Jeremy, "I was referring to how that girl looked." Emily got a bit mad and smacked him on the head, "Damn you, making me think something was going on," she said. Jeremy rubbed his head for a moment, "Well, time to have some fun," he said walking off where Emeral had went.

*On a street off of the main shopping section*

Emeral continued to walk as she paid attention to that boy following her, which he seemed to be catching up to her. "I don't like this, he is anxious for something," she thought. "Just act like you are mortal, I have the feeling this isn't the first time we felt this Aura," replied Joe in her head. "What do you mean?" she asked. "I'm not sure, but I think we felt the aura of these two when we went investigating a few odd occurrences in other dimensions," answered Joe. Emeral thought back to the time they went to a town where they could have sworn had a spaceail rift forming, but turned out to be a false alarm, although the people were giving rumors about two strange kids.

As she began to turn the corner, the boy had caught up with her, "Hey, excuse me," he yelled running up to her. Emeral turned around, "Can I help you?" she asked. Jeremy grinned softly, "I couldn't help but notice you staring at me, I was curios if you wanted to go out or something," he said. Emeral gave a soft annoyed look, "No thanks, b esides, I don't even know you," she said. "Oh, pardon me, My name is Jeremy, what's your name?" he said starting to act more polite, "What's yours?" Emeral hesitated, but figured she could be nice, "Bellosom, Emeral Bellosom," she said.

"What a nice name," said Jeremy giving a smile, "So, how about some tea? We can get to know each other better." Emeral's eyes widen as Jeremy placed his hand on her shoulder, sending some energy into her. She looked at him while he was smiling, "He's trying to take control of my mind," she thought as she struggled a bit from the discomfort, realizing she was starting to sense his thoughts through the energy transfer. "I don't believe it, he plans to force me on a date!" she thought as she began to make a fist with her right hand.

Jeremy was becoming a bit puzzled why Emeral wasn't fallen into his spell when he noticed her become more aggressive. Emeral's face became furious with rage as she looked right at him, "You Sick Freak!" she yelled as she pulled her fist back. "What?" thought Jeremy as he saw white-bluish energy form around her first.

"She has power?" he thought raising a shield around himself. "Blue Dragon Palm!" cried Emeral making a punch but opening her hand at the last second releasing a dragon head shape energy blast right on top of Jeremy shattering the shield and sending him 10 meters back. He looked up to see Emeral give him the look just before he passed out. Emeral looked at him, "He used a positive white shield," she thought, "Yet he was doing a bad thing."

Joe appeared behind Emeral, "You all right?" he asked. Emeral expression began to soften as she took a breath, "Yea, I'm fine now," she said. "That guy had allot of nerve," said Joe looking at him, "trying to make girls go on a date with him through mind control." Emeral rubbed her head, "Lets go talk to the old man now before this guy wakes up," she said. Joe nodded, taking out the pendant and inserting energy into it as Emeral did the same thing.
