Lash's pov
A month had passed and truthfully not much has changed, although we had begun to finally make ground against eggman, and our numbers were only growing. I'm out on a scouting run, zooming across the landscape of Apostos, when i notice a bright blue glow in my necklace and i stop." Umm thats new." I pull it off and i open a call to sans," whats up Lash?" " check my homing signature, my necklace is flashing like a neon bulb, can you tell me why?" "Huh, that is strange, let me check the map." I hear typing before he says," theres two new signatures, just south of you." " what colors are they?" I sigh, realizing that my hunch just might've been right." Ones baby blue, the other nearly blends in with forest green, who the heck chose those colors?!" I laugh," a couple of bumbling brothers, i'm off to go get them to safety before egghead picks up on thier signature." "Ok, be careful out there lash, intel reports there's a 24 hour bot patrol in the area they are in, and infinite passed by the area yesterday." " thanks sans, keep me posted on that patrol, don't wanna get caught with my quills down." I launch into a run, heading south quickly, and i see the duo, disguised in mobian suits, martin being in my quill suit, chris seeming to be in errors, they must've stabilized those transformations. I zip onto a nearby tree and i say down to them," you rang?" They both look up and laugh and martin cries out," Whiplash!" I quickly cover his mouth." Do you want to get caught by Eggheads drones? Keep it down" and chris notices my tight features." Whats happened here? You explained your world was a paradise, but that city looks in horrible shape." I sigh," come on, i'll explain on the way back, you two are too exposed either way, turn off your homing signal as well, your lucky Sans caught you before Robotnik did." Chris turns it off and my necklace stops glowing, and i guesture for them to follow, going into a light jog as both brothers keep up and i decide to explain the situation." We're at war with eggman, it was worse when us 3 got here, but we're finally making headway, any questions?" " just one, how did he manage to conquer enough to even start a war?" " you have to remember, Mobians are usually peaceful to each other, considering two of thier best hero's were gone for a year and 3 months, he didn't start the war until 4 months ago, but he had a year's worth of unstopped planning." Both brothers wince at that and chris says," we wish we could've helped you guys get home sooner, maybe none of this would've happened" "can't dwell on what if's anymore chris, the war happened, lives are being lost, all we can do is try to find a way straight to eggman." Chris nods and martin asks," so where are we heading?" " somewhere safe, one of the last places that is safe. Theres also a mobian working for eggman, he has this gem implanted in his chest, it causes realistic illusions, if we encounter him you two just need to run, only i've been able to adapt to his illusions fast enough to escape. We've lost good people fighting Infinite." " whats the dude's reason?" "Unknown, except he really hates Error for holding the title of God, past that, i have zero clue." Both brothers nod and i check my map twice as we're running, keeping an eye on bot patrols, and we scathe by one barely at one point in the run and i can see how well the two are handling the mobian forms, even showing off thier moves and i chuckle," glad to know you guys are starting to adapt, think you guys can move faster? Since your both using speed forms, we need to pick it up if we're to make it to Seaside hill." Chris nods confidently while martin looks less sure and i say," ok, pick up the pace slowly for you martin, but we do need to move faster." I pick up my pace to a basic run, moving nearly 100 MPH, and Chris keeps up easily, martin having some trouble keeping up the pace, and i grab onto his arm, and i check the map again, spotting a bot patrol just ahead, blocking the way to Seaside hill." Crap, can you two run straight down yet?!" Both shake thier heads and i shake my head." Ok, on my word, turn right and jump, you two will curl, the transformation should make you both safe, i'll meet you both at the bottom." Both nod and yell," ok, when you're ready." I count the seconds and i yell." Now!" And all 3 of us veer right and the two jump and curl, while i run straight down a sheer rock face to the beach, boosting to keep momentum as both of them hit the bottom, and i stop with them, and i knock on thier metalic quills." Good job, you both made it. Uncurl, we're almost there, we can walk from here." They both uncurl and martin asks," how are you keeping up with the patrol's in real time?" " Sans and Rouge, Rouge is a bat jewel theif, but she makes quite the spy. She gathers the intel and sans is the brains, error and knuckles are co commanders, i'm leader of the scouts, since i can cover the most ground. Nightmare is in charge of defense and morale, which is decently high since error and i returned." We arrive at the elevator, and i pull the lever." With your guy's suits, you'll likely be put in charge of helping train recruits or become part of the scouts." "You think we're capable?" " yes, yes i do. Besides, i need all the help i can get." The elevator opens and i walk in as the two duck down just to fit into the bunker." Welcome to the Robotnik Resistance Kratt brothers." They look around as sans whirls around and comes over," good you guys are here, i was worried that you guys would get caught!" "Heh, sans you know me, always the fast thinker, egghead'll never be able to keep up, i want you to meet Martin and Chris Kratt, thier suits have the power to copy a single Mobians ability." "Ah explains why they look like you and error, what are they doing here?" " i dunno how they got here, but hopefully once we finish this war, we can find the Emeralds and get them home." " it must've been fate, i mean you even had a hunch they would come, Infinite has no clue about these two! They could turn the tides!" "Sans no! They've never properly fought, sure they can parkor well, but absolutly not!" "We can have Knuckles train them, they're suits are perfect for infiltration and fighting." " and the first time they used errors powers the suit nearly blew up! No way no how, they barely could keep up a 100 MPH run, chris adapts faster, and even then, no way!" Sans growls at my stubbornness and i say," how about this? I'll have error and Knucks debate it over, or i could seriously use them on the scout team, or even search and rescue, they'll fit better there." "Talk to Knuckles please! Either way you need to have the commanders know." I nod," ok bro, also, i think you have a call from Rouge. I'll take it from here." He nods and races back to his spot and i poke the button to turn off the transformations." Come on, it's time for you both to meet Knuckles, be warned, any holes in the wall you see are him when he's angry." Martin flinches a bit at seeing one and chris says," i see how you are now, but why are you so worried about us fighting this Infinite guy?" " He's not like Varmitech, he's actually killed others, and he does alot of damage, he made it nearly impossible to run when i first encountered him a month ago, i just don't want to send you two back hurt." Chris nods in understanding and i ask." You guys still have our quills?" He nods," yeah, i have them here" he pulls out a small bag with them." Ok, hold tight to those, how did you guys even get here?" " aviva recorded the energy spike from you guys leaving, she was making a portal to form a infinite link here, which is why we came through transformed." I nod," to either blend in, or fight if needed, problem is, until eggmans done for, we won't be able to build a way to communicate back to Aviva." Martin says," so you guys can do that?" "Sans has never had such a challenge, but he'll likely enjoy it." Martin nods and i knock on knuckles office and he opens the door." Humans?!" "Hi knucklehead, meet Martin and Chris, the Kratt brothers, i'll take them to the bunk area, but first you and i need to have a hefty discussion about how they can help." " how can these humans help us?" " thier suits can mimick powers using a single quill or tuft of fur." "Interesting, do they have chaos powers?" " not naturally. That is why i'm here to talk." " they stay outside" i nod and i step in and i stop the twosome before they take a step." Knuckles and me only, the bunks are down the hall to the left, there should be some that might be your guys size, if not, just sit and wait." They nod and leave and i shut the door.
