RP
Asonja the Hedgehog laid down near a large tree, groaning a bit. "So bored...Very bored..."

Meanwhile, on Bygone Island, 2036...

Liam just finished packing his stuff. He put his sword in a holster tied around his waist and put a backpack on his back, then walked downstairs.

Liam: Mom, dad, I'm going on an adventure in the past.

Dave Monteiro: Okay. Be careful.

Zooey Monteiro: Come back when you're done, okay?

Liam: Will do.

Liam walked out the door and to a secluded place. He then pressed a few buttons on his time watch and beamed to 2016.

Asonja's location, 2016...

A bright light appeared near Asonja, a loud explosion occured and Liam emerged from the light as it faded.

Asonja covered his eyes for a second, groaning at the bright light. When it faded, he saw Liam. "Well, that's a surprise...What year did you just come out of?"

Liam: 2036.

"Huh, pretty far kid." Asonja says, getting up. "So, what're you here for?"

Liam: I came here for an adventure. Back in my time, things are boring. That's why I came to 2016, because there's a lot of action here. My name's Liam, by the way. Liam Monteiro.

"Pleasure to meet ya. Asonja the Hedgehog." He nodded and stretched. "So, want to go out to eat? I know a shortcut."

Liam: Sure, let's go.

He goes behind a tree, making sure Liam followed. After he did so, he takes him by the arm and they fell through the ground. They then appeared in a steakhouse, where no one seemed to noticed they teleported in.

Liam: Hey, that's a neat trick. Where'd you learn that?

"It's a long story. Now please, take a seat while I go order. What would you like? They got literally everything."

Liam: I'd like a carbonade with mustard sauce.

Liam then took a seat.

Asonja went to the counter and ordered Liam's meal and his meal. He sat down later. "So, what's it like in the future?"

Liam: It's really peaceful in the future. Most of the villains that live in this timeline have either been defeated or killed in my timeline. It's really great, but also boring. That's why I often come to 2016 for some adventures when I'm bored.

"I see. In this timeline, the villains are the main priority, mainly like the fall of the protagonists and things like that. That's why I want to be a hero at some point. Unfortunately, I do not have strength whatsoever. I don't eat, I don't train..." He shrugs, his sleeves showing rather awfully skinny arms.

Liam: That's a shame. You look like you're full of potential. Maybe I could train you. After we've had our meals, we can train somewhere.

"Sure, I can do that. I might have to warn you, I'm a horror show. Very disappointing performances, I'll tell you that for sure." Asonja says, looking at the waitress bringing the food. Asonja got a rather small steak, medium rare. Liam got exactly what he wanted, surprisingly this dish never exists in this time.

Liam: Don't worry. My dad always says: 'Patience is important when teaching someone the ways of combat.' I mean, my dad taught me how to sword-fight, and I sucked at it at first, but I quickly mastered the art of it. No matter how long it will take for you, you will become a combat master eventually.

(Just so you know, I'm not a fan of sword fighting myself because of that shitty Sonic and The Black Knight game. I don't even know why I'm letting Liam use a sword. XD)

(Surprisingly when I first got my hands on Sonic and the Black Knight, I didn't think it was bad. I thought it was actually pretty good, but not the best. I'm probably dead by now since I just said that XD)

"I suppose that's true..." Asonja says, of course seeming to doubt that fact mentally. "I'll see if I can think about it. Some friends of mine force me to train and it never works out." He took a small bite out of the ridiculously small steak.

(*points double barreled shotgun at you* You were saying? >:C)

Liam slowly ate his much bigger carbonade.

Liam: Why do you underfeed yourself?

(At least Sonic 06's gameplay was bad. The music was actually the only good part. .3.)

"I'm just...not that hungry." He says. It was actually because he's suffering from major depression.

(It's just like Nintendo's Shigeru Miyamoto said: 'A delayed game is eventually good, a rushed game is forever bad.' That's a reason why Sonic 06 was bad, amongst many other reasons. Sonic and the Black Knight was, in my eyes, bad because Sonic is not supposed to use weapons. That's like giving Batman a gun or making Superman a murderer. Heard a few music tracks from the game on Youtube, and the only thing good about the game, was the music. The rest was just uncreative shit.)

Liam knew there was another reason for the underfeeding.

Liam: I know that's not the real reason. Don't be afraid to tell me. I might understand.

Asonja seemed to stop, and looked up at him. He was silent for a moment, thinking. "It's because I believe I know don't have any potential. I'm hated by many people, considered annoying, weak because of my lack of useful powers..."

Liam: That's a shame. If you just stand more positively in life, you'll do much better.

Liam then realizes something. Asonja's parents were killed by Eggman, just like his parents were killed by Joe Chill.

(Liam has this creepy psychological talent to know everything, just like Sherlock Holmes.)

Liam: Do you...Do you happen to have witnessed your parents being killed in front of you when you were young...?

Asonja stopped entirely like time itself froze. He let go of his fork carefully like it was about to burst in the slightest aggressive movement. He nodded slowly. "Yes...I did."

Liam saw glimpses of it, and a young hedgehog going up against Eggman's base with a knife in hand, and red eyes. There was a huge gap between that event and his parents getting killed, like a 1 month gap.

Liam shivered at the glimpses, then straightens himself.

Liam: Well, so have I...I was 5 years old...My parents and I were just walking down the street one night when my parents were shot by a creepy man with a gun...Mom died on the spot, and dad was dispatched with haste...And I was sent to an orphanage...I'm sorry if I brought up memories you didn't want to think about...

"It's fine...I don't mind them as much anymore. I've made plenty of mistakes..." His eyes glistened in a blood red, an eerie smile flickering on his face, but it vanished so quickly. "Anyway...we should finish up so we can go train."

Liam: Yeah.

Liam finished up his steak and got up.

He got up as well, and pushed open the door. Apparently it was so difficult for him to open the door, he had his back against it so he could push.

Liam took Asonja to a forest to train. Once they got there, Liam got an old sword out of thin air and handed it to Asonja.

Liam: Every swordfighter starts somewhere. Let's start with a warming up.

Liam got out his sword and got ready for the warming up.

Asonja struggled to carry the sword, but managed to hold it up. It was shaking too. "R-right...lets begin..."

Liam nodded and swung his sword at Asonja.

He moved out of the way, still holding the sword...at least trying to. He didn't swing back.

Liam: Hmmm...Maybe we should train your muscles first. Good thing I always carry 1 KG dumbbells with me.

Liam got two 1 KG dumbbells out of his backpack and gave them to Asonja.

Liam: This should give you some muscle power.

He takes them, struggling a bit. He knows that a kilogram is about 2 pounds, but it's kind of sad that he was struggling to lift a single kilogram.

Liam: I know something that'll make this more fun. Can someone turn on some epic training music? (He's basically breaking the fourth wall now. XD)

'Eye of the Tiger' by Survivor starts playing as Liam and Asonja are training. As the training continues, Asonja becomes stronger and better at combat.

(Welp, that's what happens.) After about 2 or 3 days, they try again at sword combat. Asonja was still feeling a bit cowardly in this situation, but he gripped the sword. He tried filling himself with confidence and reassurance. Unfortunately he's not good at either of those things.

Liam: Don't worry, you can do this.

Liam charged at Asonja with his sword.

He managed to block the blow, backing off a bit. He broke the block and attempted a horizontal swing.

Liam blocked the swing and thrusted his sword carefully at Asonja, trying not to hurt him.

He backed off from that, his shirt a bit ripped from it. He didn't really care at this point and he tried again.

Liam blocked the attack once again.

Liam: You're learning fast, my friend. Now try to hit me without injuring me.

Asonja was unsure how to do that but he took the hilt of the sword and attempted to hit his shoulder.

Liam shoulder was struck and it started bleeding. Liam screamed in pain.

"AHH! I'M SORRY!" He dropped the sword. He didn't know what to do.

Liam: GET ME TO A HOSPITAL, QUICK!

He nods and picked him up. He teleported to a hospital with most of his power and set him down to a chair. The nurses came over and saw Liam, taking him to the emergency room. Asonja sat there, seeming to cradle a bit.

About 30 minutes later, Liam walked out with his shoulder and part of him arm bandaged.

Liam: Asonja, I'm back on my feet.

Nurse: That'll be 200 rings for the treatments, please.

Liam nodded and paid 200 rings to the nurse. Afterwards, he and Asonja left the hospital.

Liam: Maybe it's smart if we don't use our swords on ourselves anymore.

"Y-yeah...Agreed..." Asonja says. He seemed to have accidentally triggered a memory, probably missing information from his past.

Liam: I have an idea. Let's train your shooting skills at the nearby shooting range.

Liam took Asonja by the arm and they went to the nearby shooting range.

He seems nervous by that but agreed to go anyway.

The shooting range staff gave Asonja shooting range glasses and a pistol.

Staff Member: We all gotta start somewhere, kiddo. Let's start with a pistol. Just hit those targets, and everything will be fine.

He looked at the target and aimed the pistol. Another flashback seemed to set him off and he shot the pistol WAY off the center of the target. At least he hit it.

Staff Member: Not bad for a first time, kiddo. Keep trying.

"R-right..." He tried aiming again, trying to ignore the flashback going on. He could see a robot-like creature with a gun for a hand on the left and metal wings. He shut his eyes and shot again, this time dead center. He had a slight look of utter dread, like he killed a person that was replaced with the target.

Staff Member: Are you okay, kiddo?

He put the gun down ad rubbed his eyes. "Y-yeah...I'm fine..." He replied. "Just a bit...shocked that I got bulls-eye on the second try..." He lied.

Staff Member: Okay. Well, if you keep up the good work, we can try some bigger guns too.

"Alright...s-sure." He nodded. He already had the gun down. "I just need to...use the restroom."

Staff Member: Okay. Restrooms are down that hallway.

Meanwhile, Liam was drinking a can of cola.

Liam: Soda in this timeline is delicious.

He saw Asonja return with a pale face and some toilet paper wrapped around his wrist. There was some blood on it.

Staff Member: Shit, son! Why are you bleeding?!

Liam: Asonja! What happened?!

"It's...nothing..." Asonja lied.

Liam: Don't lie to me, Asonja! You probably cut your wrist open!

Asonja unwrapped it, revealing a deep knife cut. "I already did." He says, wrapping it again.

Liam: I'll take you to the hospital...again...

Liam paid the Staff Member for using the shooting range and rushed Asonja into the hospital. The nurses walked over and took Asonja to the emergency room. Liam sat down on a chair and played guitar while waiting.

It strangely took longer than when Liam was in the hospital. Something was probably wrong.

Liam: Hmmm...It's taking longer than when I was here. I'm gonna check.

Liam walked over to the emergency room and opened the door. He then looked inside.

They had Asonja in a strait jacket, trying to get out of it. It turns out they were trying to stick a needle into his arm, but his fear of needles made him go a bit crazy.

"NO! I DON'T WANT A NEEDLE!" He shouted, trying to get out of his jacket. The nurses and a few doctos held him down.

Liam was surprisingly calm. He walked into the room and hit Asonja on the head with his guitar, knocking him out.

Liam: There you go. Now you can give him a needle.

Liam walked out the room and sat back down on his chair, and continued to play guitar.

They seemed a bit surprised that worked and they gave him the needle. After that, it didn't take as long. They let him out with a glove-like cast on his right hand where his cut was. The doctor said it was self-inflicted harm with his switchblade.

Liam nodded, paid for Asonja's treatments and walked outside with Asonja.

Liam: Why did you cut yourself with your switchblade?

"It's uh...a personal problem that I have when I'm put into serious stress..." He answered, and looked as if he was in serious trouble.

Liam: You look scared. Is something wrong?

"Well...usually when I do this I get in huge amounts of trouble by everyone. I get yelled at or even smacked for my ignorance."

Liam: Okay. Well, you shouldn't be slitting your wrists, even if you miss your parents. They wouldn't have wanted you to be doing this sort of thing. Trust me, I miss my parents too, but I never think of suicide.

"I know, I try to tell myself that. But, I wanted to save them but I couldn't."

Liam looked at his time watch, then back at Asonja.

Liam: I have a time watch which grants the wearer the ability to travel through time. If you want, we can go back in time so you can save your parents.

"...I don't really want to ruin the past though. I know what damage it can cause." He can tell that he wanted to go and save them badly, but he knows the consequences.

Liam: That is true...Well, what should we do next?

He thought about it for a moment, suddenly getting confident and a bit smug. "Forget what I said about earlier. We're going to save my parents."

Liam: Well, if you know the consequences, then let's do it.

Liam pressed a few buttons on his time watch and beamed himself and Asonja to the day his parents were killed.

They were transported to a house. Liam saw a younger version of Asonja laughing and playing with a dark grey ball. He saw his parents, a light-blue furred cat with pink hair and a dark grey wolf with brown hair. Something wasn't right already. Liam has come to the conclusion that Asonja wasn't born at all, but adopted. Apparently he wasn't told yet. (Btw, I have an exam today. I'll be back at about 12:00 PM EST Dunno what that is for you, hope it's not too late)

(In my time, that would be 21:00 PM. I got one more day of school tomorrow and then I got recreation on Saturday from 10:00 AM to 16:00 PM, but after that I'm free.)

Liam: *inside his mind* Oh my knight's charms...Asonja was adopted...His heart is probably broken now...

Liam then looked at Asonja.

Asonja was looking pretty sad eyed at his 'parents'. "Man...it feels so long ago..." He put his hands together to his chest.

Liam: Asonja...Are you okay...?

"Yeah I'm fine...just getting a bit nostalgic that's all..." He says, trying not to cry.

Liam: Here, need someone to cry to?

Liam held out his arms.

Asonja tried resenting against that but he hugged him and cried for a moment. So much for an 'Emo nature'...

Liam: It's alright, I understand how you feel. Let's make sure they don't die this time.

After Asonja finally calmed down, he nodded. "Right...the robots should be coming momentarily."

Liam nodded, got out his sword, and snuck outside without anyone seeing him. He looked around for robots.

None so far. It seemed pretty normal. Asonja then came out, joining Liam but doesn't have a sword with him. "I can't find any weapons so I guess my fists?"

Liam: I guess, but you could also use this battle axe. I always keep one with me in case I lose my sword.

He handed Asonja his battle axe.

"Uhh..okay." He carried it with two hands. Normally his arms would be crushed by now but the training montage made it a bit easier for him to carry. It was still a bit too heavy for him but he got used to it eventually as they waited.

Liam got out a pair of binoculars and watched into the distance with it, checking for robots.

Suddenly, a pod shows up, releasing a bunch of robots just meters away from them. The father noticed them and told the mother to get Asonja and run inside. It was time for Liam and the real Asonja to get moving.

Liam: Let's go, tin cans...

Liam charged at the robots and sliced them to robo-bits.

Asonja didn't move as quick and got up to help Liam. He skidded to a halt, gripping his weapon nervously as a gang of robots neared him.

Liam: Come on, Asonja! You can do this! Do it for your parents!

"R-right...for my parents..." He muttered, then yelled and swung the axe horizontally, cutting them almost perfectly in half. He tried to stop himself but the axe was heavier than him and he spun around one more time unintentionally, making him dizzy for a short second.

(While I'm roleplaying, I'm watching Julia Child's cooking show 'The French Chef' on Youtube. XD)

Liam: Good job, Asonja! Keep going!

Liam jammed his sword through the metal chests of a few robots.

As the past was being altered, Asonja was slowly starting to fade away. He took this chance to do what he always wanted to do; to fight. He took the axe and ran ahead of him slicing and dicing every robot he could see.

"We need to hurry Liam before I vanish! Get all of these robots eliminated when I disappear!" He shouted to him.

Liam: Okay!

Liam defeated all of the remaining robots, then looked at Asonja fading.

Liam: What have I done...?

Asonja's lower body was just about gone. He still collapsed like he had them, dropping his battle axe. "This rush...what is this feeling...?"

Liam: Asonja, I'm so, so, sorry! I promise I'll take over your duties back in your time! Anything in order not to be arrested by the time police!

"Look, don't worry about it...! Nothing will change, I'll still remain the same but just more...confident of my abilities. My parents will still die but at least I'll know what it's like to be strong..for the first time." He managed a weak smirk at Liam. "Just think of it as a reset. I won't know you, so just introduce yourself again to me. I'll still be at the same place we once met. Train me like no one else, you get me? I want to experience this feeling 24/7." He did a weak chuckle, his upper body now starting to vanish.

Liam nodded.

Liam: Alright, I'll train you as hard as I can.

"Good...See you on the other side, brother...!" He managed a full-on smile, before completely disappearing, particles flying off to the East from the wind.

Liam saluted the just disappeared Asonja, then pressed his time watch and beamed back to 2016 to meet Asonja again. He appeared at the place where he and Asonja met and looked around.

Like he said, the new Asonja just layed there under an oak tree. He wore the same clothes, same thing as before. He just didn't jump like the other one did. He opened his eyes and got up.

"Well, this a surprise. I bet the future has gotten better hasnt it?" He smirked a bit.

Liam smiled.

Liam: I bet it did. So, you up for some training?

"Training? Oh sure! I'd love to!" He clenches his fists in excitement. "I've been training nonstop for 5 years and I've never had anyone to train with. This'll be exciting!"

Liam: *inside his head* He's a lot happier now. I'm happy about that too.

Liam nodded and he and Asonja went to lift some weights at the nearby gym.

Asonja then ran on the treadmill at top speed it can go. He was a bit disappointed that it still wasn't fast enough for him.

Liam did some push-ups as he watched Asonja run.

(Sorry I'm late) He smirked and turned off the treadmill and went to its main control center and started to tinker with it. After he was done, he activated the treadmill. It was starting to speed up more than it should.

(To celebrate my favorite act winning Holland's Got Talent 2016, I'm drinking a beer and listening to some happy country music. :D)

Liam smiled at Asonja and started boxing.

(Oh. Are you allowed to underage drink there? XD) Asonja's treadmill was at the point where no human could run that fast and he still kept up. It was going more than 50 miles per hour.

(I normally drink alcohol free beer, but we're out of that, so I'm drinking one with 2% alcohol right now. No way I'm getting hungover with that stuff. XD)

Liam: O.O Wow, that's amazing, Asonja.

"I'm not even at my limit!" Asonja smirked as the treadmill went faster and faster. Soon it went over 60, 70, 80, and soon to 100.

Liam: Awesome!

His feet were becoming a blur at this point, seeming to make a figure 8 the more faster he went. Soon, it went to 125, his maximum limit. "There! Just about a few hours at this speed will likely make me go 150 by tomorrow!"

Liam: Let's keep training like this. You're definitely becoming stronger.

Liam paid for using the gym and he and Asonja walked out. Soon, they were at a fast food joint having a milkshake.

Liam: Cheers, on a good future.

"Cheers, mate." He clinked his Vanilla milkshake with his and drank. "Thanks for havin' me. I haven't had this much fun with anyone for months. It's great to see someone like me loves training now." Liam can notice he's a bit less pale, and some muscles were starting to show. He was still a bit skinny, but muscles were showing up.

Liam: I totally agree. Training is really fun. If we keep this up, we'll be powerful warriors in no time.

"Heh...you got that right." He took another sip of his milkshake and he took a bite out of his burger. It was rather massive and this was the first time Liam ever saw Asonja eat.

"I haven't had any involvement in getting rid of villains in a while. Robotnik hasn't been doing much lately. I think he's still focused on the other blue hedgehog."

Liam: Yeah, I bet. I'm glad everything is going fine in life for you now.

Liam took a bite out of his burger as well. It had a lot of cheese and ketchup on it.

"You must love ketchup. Here, take some more." He aimed his hand at a full ketchup bottle from two tables away and it flew right into his hand. He passed it to him. "Here ya go."

Liam nodded and put more ketchup on his burger.

The top of the ketchup completely tore apart from the bottle and ALL of the ketchup spilled out onto the burger. Asonja tried to stifle his laugh.

Liam: Aw, barbells. Oh well, gonna try to eat it anyway.

Liam ate the burger, despite all of the ketchup on it.

Liam: Boy, that was a good burger.

Liam finished his milkshake and waited for Asonja to finish his meal.

Suddenly, Asonja started to look a bit more...pale. He didn't feel as hungry as he was. He seemed to remember something that wasn't worth going back on.

Liam: What's the matter, Asonja?

He seemed to tense up a bit. "Are you aware of the...rumors going around here about the...Colossi?" He spoke quietly, like he wanted this to be a secret.

Liam: *quietly* What the F-word are those?

"They're are giants. As big as buildings. Rumor has it that there are more and they have sons...and they're strong as all hell. Even I may think I'm strong, it fills me with dread and makes me feel...weak and helpless..."

Liam: Man, that sucks. Are they here on Mobius?

He nods. He was back to the regular Asonja from before, tearing up too. "I just...can't explain my feelings about myself. I was never able to. I don't have any special power other than telekinesis! It's the lamest power as far as anyone knows! I'd rather be able to burst myself into flames or...something like that..."

Liam: *inside his head* He's back to his old self again...That sucks... *to Asonja* Well, I'll help you fight those giants.

"Well it's just a rumor...but just hearing about their existence makes me wish I wasn't born...And you cannot defeat them, they're immortal...you can't even hurt them as far as I know..." He was hugging himself, at least that's what it looks like but he was just gripping his trench coat.

Liam: Well, Yankee Doodle-doo. Then we're screwed.

"I'm aware...but it's just a rumor, they were eradicated 10,000 years ago...at least I hope they dont have sons or...anything like that...I don't even know who my REAL parents are. My birth certificate doesn't even say who my parents are." He muttered the parts about his adoption.

Liam: <:c

Liam looked around, then back at Asonja.

Liam: Feel like going for a swim to forget about all this for a while?

He looked at him for a moment, then looked away seeming to be embarrassed. "I cannot swim."

Liam: Oh. Well, we could still go to the beach. You can sit around while I swim.

"I suppose...I just need to go back to my apartment and grab a few things...I'll take this food back with me." He gets up and wrapped his burger and took his milkshake.

Liam: Okay, I'll wait at 12th Street.

Liam walked out the restaurant and went to 12th Street.

He went back to his apartment which wasn't very far and he went inside. He sat down and groaned, rubbing his face. "Jesus...why am I freaking out over something so little?!" He hits a table, and it doesn't snap .Normally it would with his strength but it didn't. "Nobody is better than me...I hate being bested..." He gets up and goes to his bedroom and into his cabinets.

He looks around and finds green sweater with a yellow stripe in the middle, brown pants and brown shoes. He groaned at them and got dressed in light clothing. He put on sunscreen and his phone.

Later he met up with Liam. "I'm back.."

Liam: Trust me, a day at the beach will do you good.

Liam and Asonja went to the beach. As soon as they got there, Liam dove into the water and started swimming.

Asonja just sat at where high tide would usually strike. He had no umbrella or chair to sit on, so he just sat on the hot sand. He went to his phone and just played games on it.

Suddenly, a wave came crashing in, and Asonja was caught in it. The wave dragged Asonja into the ocean.

"AHH!" He tried gripping onto the sand, but nothing worked. All he could do was watch the ocean drag him in. "LIAM!"

Liam saw it, and swam over to Asonja, but another person got over there first.

Liam: What the?

The person was a female orange Merhog with a yellow tail. This was Merna the Merhog, an old love interest of Sonic. She dragged Asonja onto the shore and then got back into the water.

Merna: Are you okay?

He coughed out water, groaning a bit. "Y-yeah...I'm fine. Thank you for that...I can't swim..." He coughed a bit more. Luckily he wasn't coughing directly at her, just at the ground.

Merna: Okay. Well, you're lucky I was nearby.

Liam swam over and recognized Merna.

Liam: Hey, you're that Merhog girl I've been frequently dreaming about!

Merna: And you're that fox boy I've been frequently dreaming about.

Asonja blinked a few times, saying into his head 'Oh boy, it's one of those "You're meant for me because we met in our dreams" moments...' He had a look of a mix of disgust and jealousy as he thought this. He didn't seem to notice that.

(Merna is about Sonic's age, Liam is 8. But there's relationships between people with a huge age gap. I mean, Tina Turner is in her 70's and has a boyfriend who's in his 40's. Madonna is in her 50's and has a boyfriend in his 20's or something. I wouldn't mind Liam and Merna being a couple, actually. C;)

(I know, he was being sarcastic. x3)

(Okay. XD)

Merna: Say, do you boys feel like going for a swim with me? I got something that'll help you guys swim.

Merna got out two shark tooth necklaces. The shark teeth were glowing. Merna put one around Liam's neck and one around Asonja's neck. Suddenly, Liam and Asonja's bodies started tingling and their legs went numb.

Liam: Huh? I can't feel my legs.

"Uhh...mine to..." He says. He looked down at his legs to see why he couldn't feel them.

Liam and Asonja's legs were fusing together. Eventually, they had grown two fish tails. Liam had a blue Merfox tail and Asonja a light green Merhog tail. Asonja was also no longer wearing a shirt.

Liam: Oh my Gosh, I'm a...

Merna: Merfox. Now that you guys have fish tails, you'll be able to breath and talk underwater.

Liam: Awesome!

Merna: I know. You boys ready?

Liam: I am. You too, Asonja?

Asonja was a bit too shocked at what just happened. "Uhhh...s-sure?" He looked at the two, but not directly in the eyes.

Merna took Asonja's hand and pulled him into the water. Afterwards, she took Liam's hand too and they dove under the water. They then started swimming. Liam smiled. He was amazed at all the sea creatures he saw.

Asonja didn't move most of the time. He quickly avoided any fish that came near him, making him yelp a bit. He stayed near the surface, but was still under the water. "I'm...not sure I'm comfortable with this but...it's still pretty..."

Merna: It certainly is pretty. And don't worry, it's okay to swim deeper. It's really fun deeper in the ocean.

Liam: I bet.

Liam and Merna held hands as they swam.

Asonja felt a bit jealous for a moment but stayed where he was. He did go a bit deeper but when it got darker he yelped and swam back up near the surface again.

Merna: Don't worry, Merbians can see in the dark underwater. Nothing to be afraid of.

He was silent for a moment, but shook his head. This was out of his comfort zone and refuses to face his fears. He thinks negatively 24/7, and believes something is mentally wrong with him as it gets worse. At least, that's what can be assumed.

Merna: What's with your friend?

Liam: He's pessimistic all the time. That's all.

Merna: That's a shame. You should be more optimistic, Mr. Hedgehog. That'll make life much easier.

"I know but I can't...seem to face them. I'm scared." Liam can get deeper into him: It appears he has Autism, PDD-NOS to be specific. He has social interaction issues along with communication issues, and cannot develop to new routines or enviornments very well. This explains quite a bit as well, but it seems too much to take in.

(I have Autism Spectre Syndrome, and I basically have those same disabilities, so I understand how Asonja feels.)

Liam: Let me talk to him.

Liam poked his head above the surface and pulled Asonja up so they could talk.

Liam: Asonja, do you happen to be autistic?

"Uhh...y-yes. Pervasive Developmental Disorder, Not Otherwise Specified. I'm also a Pessimist, Introvert, Misanthropist...you get the picture." Asonja says, looking away.

(Glad I got someone to understand, because Asonja is basically my real life self. Whatever mood Asonja is in, I am the same.)

(I had a feeling about that. During my puberty, I really disliked school. Teachers verbally, physically, mentally and emotionally abused me, and the bullying didn't make any better. Because I keep holding on to the past, I'm quite depressed and negative most of the time, but since I go to this day center, my personal teacher has been helping me to get a little more positive in life. So far, it's been helping a bit.)

Liam: It's okay. Nothing to be ashamed of.

(I'm the same way, excpet the students were highly rude to me and kept calling me names by the way I looked and the way I originated from like I have explained earlier. After moving, my Autisim took control me. I begged my parents that we must move back to the North and live happily, but she said we cannot and I have to get used to the changes. I wasn't, because of my Autisim. After 7 years, I've becomed accustomed to the way I've been treated and it soon became a daily thing.)

"I know but...I just can't get myself to do it by myself. I hate trying new things, and I'm afraid I won't like it..."

(That's a shame, man.)

Liam: Don't worry, Asonja. You got me, and I'll get you through it.

"Thanks...I appreciate it. I'm just not used to this right now.." He replies. (Yeah, a friend of mine thinks that I can change either way, but he's not really helping)

(I see.)

Liam: Okay. I'll go tell Merna we'll have to go swim another time.

Liam dove back underwater and swam over to Merna.

Liam: Merna, Asonja's having some issues, so we'll have to swim another time.

Merna: I understand. You can keep the necklaces in case you wanna swim again. Also, here's my shellphone (Funny wordplay. XD) number, so you can call me.

Merna handed Liam her shellphone number.

Merna: See you soon.

Merna kissed Liam on the cheek and swam off.

Liam blushed and swam back to the surface where Asonja was.

Liam: Okay, I told her. She gave me her shellphone number so I can call her. She also said we can keep the necklaces in case we wanna swim with her again.

He nods, still looking away from him. "Right. Lets go back to shore." He swam back to the beach, and takes off the necklace so that his legs can return. He was shakey a bit as he stood up, but he stood just fine.

Liam crawled out of the water and took off his necklace too. His legs came back and Liam stood up.

Liam: So, what should we do now?

"I think I'm just going to go back into my apartment for the rest of the day...or tomorrow maybe. You're welcome to come in at any time. It's just down the East. I can follow you to it if you want me to." He says. He had a look of jealousy for a moment, but it was hard to tell if it was jealousy itself or a different emotion. He just looked...tense.

Liam: Okay, I'll see you tomorrow.

Liam walked to a nearby hotel and rented a room there. He then went to sleep.

He went to his apartment and stayed up pacing the room until about 3:00 AM. He still couldn't sleep so he just watched TV. He looked at his shark tooth necklace, sighing at it. "Why does she even care about me enough to give me this? She likes Liam more enough to give him her phone number...Rubbish." He puts the tooth on the coffee tables and continues watching TV.

(I gtg get dinner. If this is the last time we rp tonight, I'll wish you g' night.)

(Sure. I'm gonna go downstairs and do some things, and might go to bed after that. G'night to you too.)

(I'm back, incase you're still here)

(Alright, I'm awake. Now just gotta wait 'til you're here.)

The next morning, Liam woke up after yet another dream about Merna.

Liam: It was nice to finally meet Merna yesterday. I wonder if Asonja's already awake...I'll just wait a few hours.

Liam went to eat breakfast, then went back to his room to watch tv.

Asonja had stayed up all night watching TV. His eyes were getting heavy, but he growled at himself and continued watching. "This is your punishment, you little sh*t..." He muttered to himself. He eyed the shark tooth necklace but ignored it again.

Liam had walked to Asonja's apartment and knocked on the door.

He grumbled a bit and opened the door. Liam can notice the bags under his eyes. "Oh...hey Liam. What's up...?"

Liam: Dude, you don't look too good. Did you stay up all night?

"Kinda, yeah..." He yawned. The TV was still on. "I do that alot when I'm stressed. I have sleeping disorders..."

Liam: That must be pretty hard...

Liam stretched his arms and got out his phone.

Liam: Maybe a little chat with Merna might cheer you up. I noticed you were a bit jealous of how Merna and I get along yesterday, so I was thinking: 'Maybe this'll cheer him up.'

"Okay..." He shrugged at that like he didn't believe it would help but he'd give it a shot.

Liam handed Asonja the phone and Merna's number.

He took it tiredly and slowly put in the number. Liam could tell he was a bit nervous doing it since he has never really...done this before.

Merna: *heard over the phone* Hello? ^-^

"Uhh...h-hey Merna. It's me Asonja...How's uh...everything going?" He asked. He wasn't stuttering but he had to pause to think because he's so tired.

Merna: I'm doing fine. I got up early this morning so I could explore sunken ships. It's really fun. Once you get over your fear of the dark, you and Liam should try it with me.

"I'd...be welcome to...I think?" He says. "But I just...think that you and Liam should be together and not like...Liam and I with you because then I get a bit...uncomfortable."

Merna: Alright. Well, let me know if you're up for something fun. I'd really like to know you better. ^-^ By the way, is Liam there?

"Oh yeah he is...uhh...here ya go." He passes the phone to Liam, blushing like a tomato.

Liam chuckled and then started talking to Merna.

Liam: Hey, Merna.

Merna: Hey, Liam. How's it going?

Liam: Good. I had a dream about you again last night.

Merna: Really? I had a dream about you too. Feel like coming to my grotto?

Liam: Sure. You'll have to lead the way, though.

Merna: Sure, I'll come over there right now. See you soon.

Liam: Okay.

Liam hung up.

Liam: I'm gonna visit Merna's residence. What are you gonna do today?

"I dunno..." He sighs. "I usually just stay in here like always. I don't do much fun things but train when I'm feeling stressed."

A pink echidna girl (Not Julie-Su.) standing near Liam and Asonja heard what Asonja said and walked over to the boys.

???: That's quite a shame, Mr. Hedgehog. Maybe you could spend the day with me?

"Uhh...m-maybe? Who're you, by the way?"

???: I'm Emma the Echidna. Who are you?

"I'm...Asonja. Nice to meet you...E-Emma?" It was as if he was asking that he was pronouncing her name right.

Emma: Yes, you're pronouncing my name right. Wanna get a coffee?

"Uh...s-sure!" He nods a little bit of it and went to her. "I've been dying to get some energy..." He yawned.

Emma: Okay, let's go then!

She pulls Asonja by the arm to a nearby coffee shop.

Liam: Have fun, Asonja!

Liam walked to his hotel room, got his stuff out of it and went to the beach. He walked into the water to a point where he was able to swim. He put on his shark tooth necklace and gained his light blue Merfox tail. He then waited for Merna. Not long after that, Merna arrived.

Liam: Hey, Merna.

Merna: *hugs Liam* Hey, Liam. Did you sleep well?

Liam: Yeah, I did. And you?

Merna: I slept well too. Well, let's go.

Liam: Yeah.

Liam and Merna dove under the water. Merna held out her hand. Liam took it and the two swam off to Merna's grotto.

Meanwhile, with Asonja and Emma...

Asonja drank some coffee sitting across from Emma. He thanked her earlier for buying the coffee, but hasn't talked that much afterwards.

Emma: You're pretty quiet. Tell me some more about yourself.

"Well, there isn't really that much about me..." He answered. "I'm uhh...introverted a little bit...a Pacifist...and that's about it really."

Emma: You look like you have autism. Do you have it?

"Y...y-yeah I do." He looked a bit embarrassed by the fact, but accepted it nonetheless.

Emma: It's okay. I have a little brother with autism, so I understand.

"Alright...that's cool." He replies and drinks a bit more of the coffee. He wasn't much of a conversationalist.

Emma: My father owns a really successful company which holds thousands of employees. My mother is a fashion designer with her own clothing line. She makes clothing for both males and females. She also makes unisex designs, which can be worn by both genders. What about your family?

He stopped drinking for a moment, as if she struck a personal subject. He put his cup down normally and replied. "I'm adopted. Both of my adopted parents are dead and most likely my real parents are dead too. It's pretty cool that your parents do awesome things. I lived in the poorest regions of the country, having to farm for food, and all that stuff. Unfortunately, Robotnik's killing spree was starting to spike and we made the mistake of getting discovered. I fortunately escaped with my life by people who looked a lot like Liam and myself yet older. He vanished and I never saw my look-alike again."

Emma: Oh no, that's terrible! I must've brought up memories you didn't wanna think about. I'm so sorry.

"Nonono, it's fine. I'm a bit over it now. I didn't do much with my real parents or adopted parents anyway. I'm not really sure if I have any relatives either." He states. He remained stoic as possible because on the inside he really want to just burst into tears. He never knew what it was like to have a real family.

Emma: Okay...Well, maybe some more coffee might cheer you up.

Emma walked over to the counter and ordered another coffee for Asonja, then came back to Asonja with the coffee.

He took it, drinking a bit more of it. "T-thank you. It does cheer me up a little bit."

Emma smiled.

Emma: Good. You're really cute. Maybe you'd like to date some time?

Asonja swallowed a bit harshly after hearing that, starting to blush. "Oh? Uhh...s-sure! Where do you want to go?" She can tell he wanted to say the compliment back.

Emma: Maybe go bowling? I'm quite good at bowling.

"Sure! I like bowling too. Just not as...good." He laughed a bit, embarrassed by that, but he accepts the invitation.

Emma: Cool. Let's finish our coffee and go.

(I'm gonna take a little break. I'll be back soon.)

(Kk.) Asonja nods and finishes up his coffee. He was mentally confused about this warm feeling in his chest which felt like tranquility. He seemed smile at this feeling as if it was the first time in years that he has experienced this.

(Alright, back.)

Emma walked outside to the bowling alley.

Meanwhile, with Liam and Merna...

Liam and Merna swam and entered a cave which features a lot of cool buildings made out of stone, coral and the like. Merhogs were swimming about the city.

Liam: Wow, cool cave!

Merna: Welcome to Mertopia!

Up in the palace, the Queen of the Merhogs was on the balcony.

(Both Merna and the queen are from Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog. The queen doesn't look like a Merhog herself, but I'm visually pretending she does look like one. Also, I'm not sure if Merna's a princess or not, but I'm gonna pretend she is one.)

The Queen: I'm Queen of the Merhogs. You must be Liam Monteiro.

Liam: I'm indeed Liam Monteiro, at your service. *bows*

Queen: My daughter Merna has told me a lot about you. You're an amazing little one.

Liam: You never told me you were a princess, Merna.

Merna: Did I? :3

Liam: Anyways, it's nice to be here.

Queen: In the dreams Merna had about you, you played guitar for her. Can you do that now too?

Liam: Yeah, but I don't have a guitar with me.

Queen: Don't worry. We have plenty of instruments.

A female Merhog gave Liam a guitar and swam off.

Liam: Okay, everyone, I'm gonna be playing you a song they love back on land. It's called Rocky Mountain High by John Denver.

Liam started playing and then sang.  After he finished, all the Merhogs clapped and Merna kissed him on the forehead.

Liam: <3

Queen: Liam, you were amazing!

Liam: Thank you, ma'am.

Queen: Well, feel free to do what you like. Merna, can you be his guide down here in the deep blue sea?

Merna: Alright, mom.

Queen: Good. I'll be seeing you guys soon.

The Queen swam off.

Merna: Feel like exploring sunken ships?

Liam: Sure.

Merna: Okay.

The two swam off.

Back with Asonja and Emma...

Asonja stretched as they walked to the bowling alley. "So, how good are you at Bowling? Like, making Turkey's every 3 rounds?"

Emma: Pretty much. I have like 126 bowling trophies in my room at home. I've been bowling since I was 6.

Asonja looked a bit nervous at that and looked away. "Oh uh...wow that's...impressive." She realized that he never played Bowling before in his life.

Emma: Have you never played bowling before? That's okay. I'll go easy on you.

"W-well...no. You can go easy if you want, I'm not much of a competitive person. I usually like the arcade areas in Bowling allies." He says, seeming make some motions with his hands representing his shy personality.

Emma: If you say so. We could also play video games at the local arcade.

"Alright, sure. Is the place around this corner or is it the next?" He asked.

Emma: It's around this corner.

Emma and Asonja entered the arcade.

Asonja looked around for a while, not seeming to notice this Arcade before. He turned his $5 bill into quarters and he looked around. "Hmm..." He gasps at a machine and goes up to it. "No way! It's DDR! I haven't seen this thing in years! I thought they got rid of this!"

(What does DDR stand for?)

(Dance Dance Revolution. REALLY old dance game XD)

(Ah. XD I've heard of a Super Mario version which was released on Gamecube. Haven't really played it, to be honest. I was too young to play video games during the Gamecube era. I do own a Gamecube, which I got when I ordered Super Mario Sunshine on internet. Haven't played it in years.)

Emma: Ah, I've heard of that game. Up for a round?

"You're on." He smirked and inserted his coins. He chose a song and difficulty that was actually challenging. Some people stopped what they were doing to watch. "You're gonna get stomped to the ground. This is my jam."

Emma nodded and got ready.

Soon a crowd started to gather. Once the song began and the arrows started coming in, his feet started to go. For his first time in 5 years, he's still got fast feet.

Emma couldn't keep up very well with Asonja's lightning fast feet.

He slowed down a bit for her, even though Emma was actually winning but just by a narrow margin. "Oh god, you're actually beating me!" He says. The crowd was really tense, sometimes cheering a bit too.

Emma smiled and started breakdancing on the arrows.

"Oh dang!" Asonja shouted over the cheering crowd. "Two can play it that game!" Asonja did the same thing, trying to pick up speed. Soon, they were tied up and 2 minutes left of the song.

Emma did a few flips while she was at it.

The entire arcade was just filled in this exact moment. Asonja was a bit amazed at her skill, but took it a step further. He did a 360 corkscrew flip and then danced backwards, facing the crowd. Emma can see that he was getting perfects everytime.

Emma: O.o

Asonja smirked at her and then he flipped back to normal position. "Nah, I won't go that hard on ya. I'm too nice." He chuckled.

Emma nodded and spinned on her head until time ran out.

It ended up being an exact tie, which almost never happens. The crowd still cheered none the less. Asonja was out of breath, sweating. "Man...you actually got some skill! Let's go ahead and...take a break shall we?"

Emma: Sure.

Emma walked to the bar and ordered a drink for her and Asonja.

He drank it while everyone went back to their games. "Man, that was fun! I haven't felt that much fun in a long time."

Emma smiled.

Emma: Glad I could help you, sweetie. ^.^

He felt something in his chest for a moment, making him smile more. He then gave her a quick hug. "Glad we could have a great night together. See you tomorrow at my apartment?"

Emma: Sure. Here's my number.

Emma handed Asonja her phone number. (Let's say his phone survived the wave. :3)

He takes it, smiling and putting it his pocket. (Ahhh, I got ya fam XD) "Night, Emma." He gave her another hug and even a kiss on the cheek. He left the arcade with his soda, blushing massively after he was out of view. 'Oh my god I just kissed a girl...' His mind was racing.

Meanwhile, Liam and Merna were at the beach, making out in the water. Liam had his tail wrapped around Merna's.

Liam: <3

Merna: <3

Asonja could see them making out.

Asonja seemed to smile a little bit at this. Now that he knows what it's like to fall in love with someone, he's not really that jealous anymore. "Heh...I'll leave them to their peace." He muttered and walked back into his apartment.

Eventually, Liam and Merna were finished.

Liam: Thanks for the fun day, Merna.

Merna: You're welcome, Liam. You're a great singer and a great kisser.

Liam: Thank you. Well, I'm gonna go head to Asonja's place. Gonna ask him if he had a great day too.

Merna: Okay, bye.

Merna dove back under the water and swam off.

Liam took off his shark tooth necklace. His legs came back and he stood up. He then walked back to Asonja's apartment. He knocked on the door.

He opened the door, Liam seeing a rather new face of Asonja's. He was still blushing, and smiling. "Hey Liam, come on in, make yourself comfortable!"

Liam: Wow, looks like Emma gave you quite a good day.

Liam walked in and put his stuff in the room.

"Oh yes, she did! We went to an arcade and we danced in front of a crowd and nobody won, we tied and then she gave me her number! I even kissed her! Not fully yet, I don't think I'm ready for that..."

Liam: Okay. Well, I had a great time with Merna today. She showed me her underwater home, and it turned out she's a princess, because her mother is Queen of the Merhogs. I sang songs for the Merhogs, Merna and I explored sunken ships, we ate delicious things, and we had a great kissing session at the beach. Glad to hear we both had a great day.

Asonja seemed to chuckle for a second and did the infamous motion with his left hand making a hole, and using his right hand to stick in his index finger in the middle of it. "Heheheh, you gotta do it sometime buddy, she's wanting it!" He bursts out laughing, but in joy.

Liam chuckled. (Porn or marriage? XD)

(Marriage. A-duh XD) "Heheh...but yeah. I think you two would be perfect. Though, I don't really have a usage of the necklace anymore, but I'll keep it nonetheless."

Liam: Yeah, I agree. Merna would be an amazing wife for me. You and Emma would be perfect as well.

"Heh..glad you think so." He blushed a little bit. "I did invite her over for tomorrow. If only I could conquer my fear of the darkness I would love to come over just to hang out or something."

Liam: I'm sure Emma can help you with that. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna sleep. All that swimming made me really tired.

Liam laid down on the couch and fell asleep.

(I'm gonna go to bed for real too. Got school tomorrow. Bye.)

(Alright. I do too but I dont go to bed right now. Night, and good luck!) Asonja sighed a bit, smirking. "Yeah...not to mention that kissing session was hot." He snickered a bit. He picked Liam up and put him on his bed. Instead, Asonja slept on the couch.

The next morning, Liam woke up with a smile on his face. He had a dream about him and Merna getting married.

Liam: This type of dreaming can only be God's gift. <3

Liam walked out of the room and saw Asonja sleeping on the couch. Liam smiled and started making breakfast

Asonja was still asleep. He hasn't moved from his position either. Perhaps he has never seen a dream before, since it rarely happens for him.

Liam started eating his breakfast. He made himself some bacon and eggs with an orange juice.

Asonja seemed to make a grunting noise and shifted his body to the right instead of the left, his face against the sofa. He seemed tense.

Liam saw it and he walked over to Asonja and shaked him to wake him up.

Liam: Asonja, Asonja!

"GAH!" He stumbled off the side of the sofa, landing on his head. His body soon collapsed with him. "Argh...thanks for waking me up from that...That was...both terrifying yet interesting in a horrible way."

Liam: It appeared you were having a nightmare. Was everything alright in your sleep?

"Remember when I mentioned about my Sleeping Disorders?" He replied with another question.

Liam: Oh, right. I forgot about that. Sorry.

"It's fine. I just...can't really dream anymore. I only get nightmares every...once a week I think. Other days I just sleep right through. Or I just don't sleep at all."

Liam: I see...Well, want some breakfast?

"Uhh...sure I'll take a piece of bacon." He only took one slice and nothing else.

Liam: *inside his mind* He's in a bad mood again...That sucks... *to Asonja* That's not a lot of food, but if you're happy with it, then it's fine with me.

"I don't really eat much in the mornings anyway." He shrugged, swallowing all of the bacon. He took his phone out and started playing some games on it.

Liam nodded.

Liam: Well, I'm gonna go for a stroll. See you soon.

"See ya." He said blankly as he sat on the sofa. Whatever this nightmare was, it seemed to affect him personally.

Liam walked out the door and walked through Station Square.

Liam: 2016 is such a peaceful year. I might even move here.

Asonja put his phone down and lay back down on the sofa. He turned the TV on, bored out of his mind.

(I'm going to bed now. It's been past 10 PM in The Netherlands, and I don't want to wake up with a lack of sleep again. See you tomorrow.)

(Alrighty. See ya)

Suddenly, the doorbell of the apartment rang.

Emma: Asonja, you there?

"GAH!?" It woke Asonja up from his nightmare and he fell from his sofa again. He stumbled to the door and tried to look normal. He opened it, seeing Emma. "Hey, Emma! Glad you could make it."

Emma: I was thinking we could shop for some clothes for you, because you look really bummy. You feel like buying new clothes today?

He looked at himself for a moment, noticing he's been wearing the same clothes for a while. "Uh...yeah, I think a few clothes wouldn't hurt."

Emma: Okay, let's go!

Emma waited for Asonja to lock his apartment.

He was acting a bit shakey as he was doing so. He seemed tense while he finally locked the apartment. "Alright, NOW we can go. The lock got stuck for a second..." He says.

Emma: Alright.

Emma then walked to the nearest clothing store.

Meanwhile, Liam was walking around when suddenly, a group of bank robbers came out of the bank Liam was about to walk past.

Bank Robber #1: Out of our way, kid!

The bank robbers ran to their van.

Bank Clerk: Help! We've been robbed!

Liam: I'll handle this!

Liam got onto the back of a motorbike with a guy sitting on it.

Liam: Quick, follow that white van!

Biker: Yes, sir!

The biker drove after the van. Once they got close enough, Liam grabbed a pistol from his utility belt and shot out the tires of the van. The van slipped and went off the road and hit a mailbox. Afterwards, the police arrived and arrested the bank robbers.

Cop #1: Thank you, young man. What's your name?

Liam: Liam Monteiro, sir.

Cop #2: Okay. Can you come with us?

Liam: Sure. Thank you for helping me, mister.

Biker: You're welcome.

Liam got in a police car and they drove off to town hall.

At town hall, a ceremony was held to honor Liam's deed.

Mayor: Welcome, everyone. We're here together to celebrate this young hero named Liam Monteiro who stopped 3 bank robbers together with this biker.

Liam and the biker bowed. They were then both given a medal of honor. The crowd cheered for the two.

With Emma and Asonja...

Emma: How about this hoodie?

"Do they have it in black?" Asonja asked. "I like to wear dark colorless clothing. Hoping that's not...weird or anything." Asonja says. He felt something like jealousy for a moment, and he shrugged the feeling off, confused for a second. ''Huh...why did I just feel like someone I know just won an award all of a sudden? Weird..'' He thought to himself.

Emma: Sure, I've got a black one.

She got out a black hoodie, along with black slate baggy jeans.

Emma: Do you think this will look good on you?

"Hm? Oh, yes, of course! I think I'd look great with these on. Do I still keep the trench coat and the cross necklace? They were, given to me."

Emma: If you like them and want to keep them, it's fine with me.

"Alright then. This hoodie and baggy pants are coming home with me." Asonja says. "In the mood for a milkshake?"

Emma: Sure, I'd love one right now.

"Alright. After we pay for these and drop them off at my apartment, I can go pick up some milkshakes. You can go ahead and get comfortable in my apartment. It won't be long."

Emma: Okay.

Emma went and paid for the clothes. Afterwards, they went to Asonja's apartment to drop off the clothes. After they got in, Emma sat down on the couch and turned on the tv.

Emma: Go ahead and grab some milkshakes. I'm gonna watch Vinny McCartney: Brokebuster.

"Alrighty. I'll be back in about...5 minutes or so." He says, giving her a goodbye hug before leaving.

He went back onto the streets, looking around for the milkshake. "Huh...I wonder where Liam went? I haven't heard from him a while. He might be in the ocean, like always with his awesome powers..." He suddenly got jealous again, but shrugged it off.

(I'm watching a Top 10 video by Nicobbq about why Sonic is NOT a hero. Even if Nico says it's a prank, it still pisses me off.)

Suddenly, Liam walked over to Asonja. He was wearing his medal around his neck.

Liam: Oh, hey, Asonja.

"Hey...I see you uh...have a medal there." Asonja said blankly. He had that jealousy feeling again from earlier when Emma and he went shopping. "What happened?" (Sorry I'm late, had dinner.)

(And apparently I've been gone for too long ;-;)

Liam: I was walking past a bank, which was robbed. I chased the robbers with the help of a biker and I shot the tires of their getaway van out. Afterwards, that biker and I were both given a medal. Fun, right?

His eye twitched, mostly from jealousy. But he remained stoic. "Uhh...yeeeeaaah....fun."

(I don't have a lot of time to RP today, because at 19:30 PM my time, I'm gonna be watching Utopia, and later at 20:30 PM I'll be watching the Idols finals. Let's try to get as much RP'ing done as possible.)

Liam: I notice you're jealous. I understand. I'd be too if you'd get a medal.

(Alright. Have fun)

"I'm...jealous with a bunch of things, actually. But that is not the point right now." Asonja eventually calmed down. "I'm just getting Emma some milkshakes, as she is over at my apartment."

Liam: Cool. Can I come?

"If you want, I do not care." He shrugged. "Do you want me to get you a milkshake too?"

Liam: Yeah. I'd like a strawberry one.

"Alright. Go ahead and stick around my apartment until I get back." He walked off.

Liam nodded and walked back to Asonja's apartment. As he entered, he saw Emma sitting on the couch.

Liam: Hi, Emma.

Emma: Hi, Liam.

Liam: Whatcha watching?

Emma: A reality show called Vinny McCartney: Brokebuster.

Liam: What's it about?

Emma: It's about 80's movie star Vinny McCartney who was forgotten after spending time behind bars and now he's making a comeback.

Liam: Can I join?

Emma: Sure. Have a seat.

Liam sat down on a chair and started watching.

(I'm gonna go now, because it's gonna begin in 8 minutes. C ya tomorrow.)

(Alright. See ya.)

Asonja eventually came back with a drink tray of 3 milkshakes. He set them on the table. "Alright, milkshakes are here guys."

Liam: Sweet!

Emma: Oh, good!

Liam and Emma took their milkshakes and sat back down again. They then started drinking their milkshakes.

Asonja took his but barely drank his. He sat on the couch beside of Emma. (I'll try to be back by Noon at my time. It's really late where I am.)

Liam looked at Asonja and his milkshake and remembered his depression.

Liam: *inside his head* I feel really sorry for Asonja...Maybe Emma will be the cure to his depression.

He placed his not-even-remotely-done milkshake on the table and watched the show.

After the show ended...

Liam: Well, that's a cool show.

Emma: Yeah, Vinny's got mental issues, but like he said: Prison changes a man. I really like his imaginary friend Lightning Fusion.

Liam: Yeah. A My Little Pony foal plushie for an imaginary friend is pretty creative.

Emma: Fusion really understands Vinny, and that's really cute.

Liam: Yeah. So, whatcha wanna do now?

Emma: I'll leave that up to Asonja.

Asonja blinked a few times, noticing everyone was waiting on him. "Uhh...I-I dunno what else to do. I'm kinda out of ideas..." He says. He barely even touched his Milkshake after the show or even during it.

Emma: Asonja, you have barely touched your milkshake. Are you all right?

"Y-yeah...I'm fine." He looked at Emma for a moment, and then to a wall. "I'm just...not hungry I guess." His stomach growled lightly in protest.

Liam: Asonja, don't starve yourself. Not with Emma here.

"Right...sorry." He took his milkshake and drank a bit from it. A headband was shown hanging on the wall with some dried blood from who knows how long ago.

Liam saw the headband.

Liam: Asonja... *points at the headband* What the F-word is that?

"Hm?" He looked at the headband and then back at Liam. "Oh yeah...I used to be a Bounty Hunter."

Emma: You were a WHAT?!

"Jeez, calm down!" Asonja harshly gulped his milkshake and put it down so he wouldn't choke himself. "Yes, I was indeed a Bounty Hunter. I haven't gotten a job in about...half a year."

Liam facepalmed after hearing this.

Emma: I can't believe you killed people for money...That's disgusting...

Emma grabbed her purse and ran out the door.

Liam: *inside his head* Crud, shouldn't have asked about the headband...

He sighed and slumped down on the couch. "I don't kill people for money, I put them in custody..." He muttered, his face was a bit red.

Liam: Asonja, I'm sorry for causing you to lose your girlfriend. Should I talk to her about it?

"If you want to, sure...I'll be in the ocean in the meantime..." He grabbed his necklace and walked out the other way, headed to the ocean.

Liam: Okay.

Liam took the key of the apartment, locked the door and went after Emma.

Asonja stepped toward the beach and put the necklace on before stepping into the water. "Alright...lets just get this done already so I won't have to worry about my fears anymore..." He muttered and started to slowly swim toward the deeper areas.

"Oh god, it's getting so freakishly dark...probably darker than caverns..." He muttered to himself. He stopped at one point, but then continued going.

Suddenly, he heard Merna singing.

Merna: 'Cause I'm no ordinary girl, I'm from the deep blue underworld. Land or sea, I've got the power if I just believe. ' Cause I'm no ordinary girl, I'm from the deep blue underworld. Land or sea, the world's my oyster, I'm the pearl, no ordinary girl. (This is part of the theme song for H2O: Just Add Water.)

"Huh...that's some nice singing..." Asonja muttered and went closer to the source. Oh god I cannot take this darkness anymore I'm really starting to freak out... His thoughts raced.

Merna was sitting on a rock under the water. She turned around and saw Asonja.

Merna: Asonja? Is that really you?

"Y-yeah...I finally got here on my own. I don't feel that accomplished but...it's a start." He nods and swam a bit closer to her.

Merna: Okay. Well, what brings you down here?

"Well, I can to just relieve some stress. Liam asked about my Bounty Hunter origins and ended up splitting Emma from me. He's trying to get her back and in the meantime, I just thought I'd...swim down here." He shrugged.

Merna: That's a shame. Wanna swim with me?

(It's almost Utopia time. I'll be back at 20:00 PM.)

(Kk. I'll try to wait)

"Sure, why not." He nods. "Lead the way."

(Alright, I'm back.)

Merna nodded and she swam off to Mertopia.

He followed, not very close behind. He was a rather slow swimmer, but eventually caught up. "So, this is where you introduced Liam to?" He asked (Brb for a sec I'll be back asap)

Merna: Yeah. This is Mertopia. It's where I live. And look, my mom's up there!

"Your mom?" He looked and realized Liam wasn't kidding. "Whoa, you really ARE a princess. That's actually really cool."

Merna: Yeah, I know.

Queen: Hello, I'm the Queen of the Merhogs. Who did you bring with you this time, Merna?

Merna: This is Asonja, a friend of Liam.

Queen: That's pretty cool. Would you like to get a royal treatment, Asonja?

"A royal treatment...?" He thought for a moment, and then nodded. "Sure! I'd be more than honored to accept." He even did a small little bow too.

The Queen smiled. She snapped her fingers and two female light brown tailed Merhogs swam over to her.

Queen: Girls, can you give our visitor a royal treatment?

The girls giggled and they took Asonja to an underwater wellness center in one of the buildings that was stationed around the palace.

Merna: I haven't had a royal treatment in a while. I'm getting one too.

Queen: Okay.

A male white tailed Merhog swam over and took Merna with him to the wellness center. In the wellness center, the girls gave Asonja a massage. Merna got a massage from a male Merhog masseur.

After the massage was completed, he was smiling and stretched. "Oh my god, that was the best massage ever."

Melinda the Merhog: Glad you liked it, sweetie.

Hazel the Merhog: If you want, we could also polish your tail.

He chuckled a little bit, smiling. "Nah, that is okay. Thank you two again, it was great."

Melinda and Hazel: You're welcome.

Merna: So, what do you feel like doing now, Asonja?

"Hmm...I should probably head back to my apartment to check up on Liam and Emma. You know, just so nothing bad happens." He answered. "Thanks for having me, by the way. And, keep good care of Liam when he comes here." He also pointed out before preparing to leave.

Merna: Don't worry, I'm basically Liam's guardian angel, and he's mine. Good luck, and until next time.

He smiled a bit, and there was a glimmer in his eyes that told her silently that he saw them making out intensely earlier. He chuckled and soon left. "See ya!"

While he was swimming back up in the darkness, he strangely didn't feel scared anymore. He took this into consideration as he took the necklace off back at the surface and walked back to his apartment. I wonder how Liam and Emma are doing... He thought to himself.

Meanwhile, with Liam...

(The conversation above is still going on.)

(Kk)

Liam found Emma in a juice bar.

Liam: Emma!

Emma: Oh, hey, Liam...

Liam: Are you okay?

Emma: Yeah...I just can't believe Asonja used to be a killer bounty hunter...

Liam: Asonja never killed those people. He put them into custody.

Emma: ...Really?

Liam: Yeah. Asonja isn't the type of guy who would kill someone. In my eyes, at least. Please, find it in your heart to forgive him, because he's really sad right now.

Emma: Okay, I will.

Liam: Yay!

Emma rubbed Liam's hair and they left the juice bar. They then went back to Asonja's apartment. Liam unlocked it and they went inside.

Emma: I'm hungry. Do you guys have something to eat?

Liam: Have you ever tried making French food?

Emma: No. Do you have any idea on what to make?

Liam: We could make cheese souffle. I'm gonna look for a tablet to show a video on how to make one. I know a woman called Julia Child who used to host a cooking show called The French Chef until she died in 2004.

Emma: Fun!

Liam saw a tablet lying on the kitchen counter and grabbed it. He looked up the video he was talking about and showed it to Emma.

After watching the video, Liam and Emma went to the grocery store to buy the things they needed for the soufflé. Afterwards, they went back to the apartment and started cooking.

After about 5 minutes, Asonja appeared at the apartment again. He struggled to find his keys.

Liam and Emma were making the soufflé.

Finally, Asonja opened the door and noticed Emma and Liam. "Uhh...what're you guys making?"

Liam: Oh, hey, Asonja. We're making cheese soufflé. We're following the late Julia Child's recipe.

Emma: Yeah. Also, Asonja, I'm sorry for misjudging you about your bounty hunter career. Liam explained it to me, and then I realized I was wrong. Can you forgive me?

He hugged her assuringly. "Yes. I do. I get misjudged all the time, so it's not uncommon."

Emma: Good.

Liam smiled.

Liam: So, how was your day?

"Surprisingly well." He let go of Emma. "I got a royal treatment and I've never felt so lifted in my life."

Liam smiled.

Liam: I'm glad to hear that.

(Always happy to lighten up your mood. C:)

(So sunny and rainbowey for an emo like Asonja XD)

(Yep. XD)

"Yeah...anyway, you guys continue cooking. I would help but I've...never really cooked before and I don't want to mess anything up. I'm just going to my room real quick." He goes to his room and closes the door.

Another thing about the headband that was still on the wall; if he claims he doesn't kill anyone when he was a bounty hunter, then why was there blood on it?

Liam realized that, but dismissed it, not wanting to ruin Asonja's relationship again.

Eventually, the soufflé was done. Liam and Emma served it.

Liam: Asonja, dinner's ready!

"Okay!" He called from behind his room door. "I'll be out in a second!"

Liam nodded and he and Emma started eating.

Once he came out of the bathroom, he had only his tanktop on and some shorts. He noticed the  soufflé and sniffed it. "Oh, this smells good. What is it?"

(Grandparents are here, dunno how long I'll be gone.)

(In that case, I'll be heading off to bed, because I got one more school day before the weekend. See you tomorrow.)

Liam was surprised at the fact that Asonja wasn't wearing his trench coat, but shook it off.

Liam: It's cheese soufflé. It's really good.

Liam put some on Asonja's plate.

Liam: Bon appetit.

"I was going to make a skeleton joke there but I decided against it." He replied as he looked at his own portion. He took a small piece of it and started to eat it. "Hm...this is pretty good."

Liam: Yep. The stuff Julia Child made was delicious. Back in 2036, I make this stuff a lot.

Emma: You're from the future?

Liam: Yeah, I was born in the year 2028. I'm 8 years old, so that would mean I'm from 2036.

Emma: Yeah.

"I'm surprised that you kissed a mermaid about twice your age." He snickers.

Liam blushed.

Liam: Heh, yeah...Merna's my special someone, that's why. It's not that uncommon, though. Just look at Tina Turner and Madonna having a relationship with guys younger than them.

Emma giggled.

"Well, yeah, that's true." He chuckled and looked at Emma. "Emma's my special someone."

Emma: Aw. <3 You're my special someone too, Asonja.

He smiled, blushing a bit. Then just to see what would happen, he kissed her on the side of the cheek. "I know, but I love you more." .3.

Emma: Aw. <3

Liam: Looks like we all got our love interests.

"Mhm." Asonja nodded, smiling. "I've never been more happy in my life."

Suddenly the phone rang. "Huh. I'll be right back." He walked up and picked up the phone. "Hello?"

He was silent for a moment. And then he hung up. He looked at Liam. "Liam, keep Emma here, lock the door, and lock the windows as well as covering them." He says sternly.

Liam frowned.

Liam: Why?

"...I got another Bounty on my hands." He grabbed his headband and put it on. With this, he started to glow a really dark color for a moment, making the room cold. He put on his cross necklace and trench coat, and grabbed two black long-swords with dragon designs on them.

"Now don't worry, I do not plan on using these. Only if the criminal refuses to go to trial or go to jail, and for self-defense." He says and went to the door. "I will be back in...say...an hour or so."

Liam: Okay, will do, Asonja.

"Thanks...I'm counting on you to protect her for the time being." He leaves the apartment locking the door. (I'll take control of Emma so it's not, you know, unfair x3)

(Kk.)

Liam proceeded to lock the windows and closed the curtains.

Liam: Well, let's protect ourselves from the enemy.

Emma nodded and even barricaded the door. "Better to be safe than sorry."

Liam: Yeah. So, feel like playing some Monopoly to pass the time?

"Sure!" She nods. "I just hope Asonja's okay...If I found out something happened to him..." She growled quietly.

Liam: I'm sure he'll be fine.

Liam got out a Monopoly board game and started to set it up.

"I understand that, but..." She sighed and sat down. "I'll be the Bank."

Liam nodded and grabbed the Battleship piece.

(I'm gonna go downstairs to watch Utopia, and then I'm gonna take a nap. I'll be back before 21:00 PM.)

(Kk) She grabbed the Shoe piece. "Lets do this." She smirked.

(I recharged my batteries with a lemonade and some chips, so I'm back early.)

(Since I'm Dutch, I'm not really used to the American properties in Monopoly. XD)

(TIs fine, we can skip this part if you want :P)

(Okay then.)

At the end of the game, Liam had won.

Liam: Looks like I win.

"Man, you're too good at this." Emma says and helped clean up. "But I was close if only I didnt roll an eleven!"

Liam: I'm a champion at Monopoly. I rarely lose at it.

(Whenever I finish a game of Monopoly, or when we decide to quit playing, I make a drawing of me and the players on a property in the game. XD)

(Ah x3) "Rarely. I will get you next time, I swear it." Emma says, but smiled. "Good game though."

Liam: Yeah.

Liam peeked behind the curtain, and saw it was dark. He then looked on the clock.

Liam: Man, 22:00 PM already? I better get going to bed. I'll see you tomorrow, Em.

"Sure." She nodded. "Have a good sleep."

Liam nodded and walked to Asonja's room. He then got into his bed and fell asleep.

The next morning...

Liam woke up and walked to the living room.

Liam: *yawns* Morning, Em.

"Heya." She waved hello. Asonja still wasn't back yet.

Liam: Looks like Asonja isn't back yet.

"Yeah...I've been keeping watch all morning for him. He still hasnt returned..." She was getting teary eyed.

Liam walked over to Emma and hugged her.

Liam: Hey, it's okay. Don't cry.

Liam then got an idea.

Liam: I know something that might make you forget about your problems.

Liam got out his phone and called Merna.

Liam: Hello? Hey, Merna. Say, can you come to the beach and bring along a shark tooth necklace?

Merna: Sure, Liam. Why?

Liam: Asonja's girlfriend Emma needs a little bit of distraction.

Merna: Okay, will do.

Liam: Okay, see you soon.

Liam hung up.

Liam: My Merhog girlfriend is coming over to the beach. You feel like going there?

"Sure. I dunno what a Merhog is but I'm sure she's nice."

Liam: She is. Let's go.

Liam removed the barricade, wrote a note for Asonja in case he'd come back, put the note on the kitchen counter and he and Emma walked out the door. Liam locked the door and ran to the beach.

Emma followed not so close behind. "Why the beach though?"

Liam: You'll see.

As they arrived on the beach, Merna arrived too. Merna jumped high up in the air, showing her yellow tail. She did a backflip and dove back into the sea.

Liam smiled.

Liam: My little Merhog.

"Whoa...! That was awesome!" Emma said, smiling.

Liam nodded.

Merna resurfaced and swam over to Liam and Emma.

Merna: Hi. You must be Emma.

"Yes. And you're Merna?" She asked.

Merna: Yes. Liam told me to bring a shark tooth necklace for you.

Merna held it out to Emma.

Merna: But if I were you, I'd go into the water before putting it on.

Liam nodded.

Liam: You'll see why.

"Alright..." She took the necklace and stepped into the water. She put it on.

Emma's legs started to glow, her tank top turned to a a purple shell bra and she grew a purple fishtail. Liam smiled at the sight of this.

Her eyes glistened as she saw this. "Oh my gooood!" She squealed happily. "This is amazing!"

Liam: It certainly is. I got one myself too.

Liam got into the water and put on his necklace too. His light blue fishtail appeared.

Merna: Come with us, Emma. We will show you my world.

Liam and Merna dove under the water.

She swam happily, following them. "This is so cool! I've always wanted to be a mermaid!" She squealed. (I'm going to graduation. Be back in about...2 hours I think? I'll see you tomorrow if that's the case)

(Okay. Good luck and congratulations.)

(It was my bro's graduation, actually. Mine wont be here until 2 years XD But thank you anyway. I tried some Red Apple Ale just a few minutes ago. It was strong as all balls DX)

(Oops. XD I don't drink any alcohol, because it will mix with my medication and screw things up a lot.)

Liam: Actually, you're a Merchidna, since I haven't seen any human mercreatures before.

Merna: Neither have I. But if I did, I'd be very surprised.

Liam and Merna swam deeper into the ocean, seeing all kinds of sea creatures.

Emma couldnt stop smiling. This was such a fun experience for her.

Eventually, the three of them reached Mertopia. They entered the city. Emma could see all sorts of Merbians swimming around.

She contained her happiness, by seeming to hug herself. She thought she was dreaming and didn't want to get up.

Merna: Welcome to Mertopia.

The Queen of the Merhogs was once again on the balcony of the palace.

Queen: Hello. I'm the Queen of the Merhogs. That's what they call me, despite the fact that other Merbians have been living here for a while. What's your name, young Merchidna?

"M-my name is Emma, Queen." She did a small bow. She was about to say 'Boyfriend of Asonja' but said nothing about it yet.

Queen: That's a nice name. Merna, can you show her around the city, please?

Merna: Sure, mom.

After hearing that, Emma realized Merna's a princess.

Emma looked at Merna wide eyed for a moment, and then looked at the Queen and back at her. "No way. That is awesome." She muttered to herself.

Liam: Yep, she's a princess. I'm gonna be her prince one day.

Liam and Merna kissed.

Queen: Aw, that's cute. Well, I have to go to the opening of a new night club, so I'm gonna go. See you again real soon.

The Queen swam off.

Liam: Well, let's show Emma around.

Merna nodded and she and Liam swam off. They showed Emma where everything was. Once they did that, they had a fish shake at the Krusty Krab. (Couldn't resist. XD)

(I understand exactly how you feel x3) "Wow, that sponge sure knows how to make some mean shakes. He's a cute little guy too!" She giggled.

Liam: Yeah. That octopus cashier is more like a SOURpuss.

The customers started laughing.

Liam: Thank you, thank you. I'll be here all day.

Emma laughed as well. "Oh wow Liam, you're such a funny guy. I really wish Asonja had a bit more enthusiasm to share but he's always so...dependent on his past. Sorry to kill the very happy atmosphere anyway..."

Liam: It's okay. I'm worried about him too. But let's forget about it and continue our fun day.

Merna nodded.

Merna: Liam is right. Say, feel like getting a Krabby Patty?

Liam: Sure. I'll have one with a lot of ketchup.

Merna: I'll have one with extra cheese. And you, Emma?

She thought. "A plain Cheese Krabby Patty with Mayo and Ketchup, please." She said nervously.

Merna nodded and swam over to Squidward. Suddenly, an alarm started to ring.

Mr. Krabs: *heard over the intercom* The evil Plankton has arrived at the Krusty Krab.

Liam: I'll take care of this!

He swam around, trying to find Plankton. He then saw him at the door.

Plankton: I will steal the secret formula! You can't stop me!

Liam stomped on Plankton with his fin.

Plankton: Ow...

The customers cheered as Liam wove at them.

Merna: Liam, you're a hero!

Liam: *blushes* Aw, shucks, it was nothing.

"I mean that...literally was nothing." Emma chuckled. "That was very easy."

Meanwhile at the surface...

Asonja stood by a bank area, panting and covered in bruises and cuts. His two swords were covered in blood. "I may need some backup from an old friend...I hope Liam doesn't mind if he can stay in my small apartment for a while..." He went to his phone and dialed a number

??: Hello?

Asonja: I need you to do something for me. Meet me at the bank at Station Square, now.

??: On my way, but why?

Asonja: Just get here, it's very urgent.

??: Alright...Be there soon.

Asonja hangs up and sighs as he dashes at an unknown tall being.

Back in the Water...

Plankton has been arrested and put in a cage. He was now being taken away by a Mergorilla officer.

Mr. Krabs: Thanks for stopping Plankton, me boy.

Liam: No problem, sir. I was happy to help.

Mr. Krabs: Good. Well, enjoy your Krabby Patties and have a nice day.

Mr. Krabs walked back to his office.

Liam: Well, let's go ahead and eat our patties.

Merna: Yeah.

After eating their patties, Liam, Merna and Emma left the Krusty Krab.

Merna: Let's go to the palace. Feel like getting your hair done by me, Em?

"Oh, yes!" Emma smiled and nodded. "I would love that very much."

Liam: Does the palace have a television?

Merna: Yes.

Liam: Good, then I'll be watching that.

Merna: Let's go then.

Later, inside the palace, Merna and Emma were sitting in Merna's room. Merna hung white roses onto Emma's dreadlocks and put a white pearl tiara on her head.

Merna: Emma, you look beautiful.

"I do! Thank you so much!" She happily squealed at her new look. "I love the pearl."

Merna: Yeah. These pearl tiara's are handmade by the elderly Merbians. Teenage Merbian girls and princesses wear them. You can keep this one.

"Really? Thank you so much!" She smiled.

Merna: Let's show this to Liam.

"Yeah, I bet he'd love it." She smiled and swam to Liam. "Do I look good like this?"

Liam smiled.

Liam: If Asonja saw you like this, he'd find you hot. Especially in Merchidna form.

"I hope he does, because I'm smokin'!" She giggled.

Liam: Heh heh, yeah.

Merna: Well, feel like swimming around outside the city?

Liam: Sure. What about you, Emma?

"Sure." She nodded.

Merna: Okay, let's go.

Merna swam off. Liam followed.

Emma followed too. She looked around in awe.

Merna: Yeah, I know. The ocean is a big and wonderful place.

As the three of them swam, Merna told Liam and Emma about her family. Her mother had been ruling over Mertopia for a long time. Her father left her mother when Merna was only 4 years old, and she has an older brother named Triton who was heir to the throne, but passed the heir title to Merna because she's more worthy of it.

Liam: I wonder where Triton is.

Merna: He's currently out exploring, like we are doing right now.

Suddenly, Liam saw something.

Liam:Is that a treasure chest?

"Ooo, should we look inside?" Emma asked.

Merna: Of course.

The three swam over to the the chest. Liam opened it and there was a lot of treasure in it. Golden rings, emeralds, rubies, sapphires, pearl necklaces, crowns, you name it.

Liam: Ladies, we just hit the jackpot!

"Whooooooa!" Emma looked inside and pulled out some gold coins. "Asonja will love these! He loves collecting coins!"

Liam: I'm keeping this crown.

Liam got a crown out of the chest and put it on his head. He got out some sapphires too.

Liam: I'm keeping some of these too.

Merna: Let's take this back to the palace.

Liam nodded and he and Merna picked up the chest and started carrying it back to Mertopia.

Liam: This is heavy.

Merna: Don't worry, sweetie. Once we get this back to the palace, everything will be fine.

Emma helped out, noticing how heavy it is too.

Eventually, they got the chest into the palace. They put it in the treasure room.

Merna: Well, that was fun.

???: Hello, guys.

Triton entered the treasure room.

Merna: Hey, Triton.

Liam: Hi, I'm Liam. I'm Merna way younger boyfriend.

Triton: That's fine with me. I'm happy if Merna's happy.

He then saw Emma.

Triton: Hello, beautiful. What's your name?

She was blushing a bit. "I-I'm Emma."

Triton: What a beautiful name for a beautiful girl like you. How would you like a date with me?

"Uhh...I'd love to but I need to go back to the surface for a while. I'm expecting someone to visit me later.." She replied.

Liam: *inside his head* Wow, she really does love Asonja.

Triton: Aw, man. Another one taken. Well, thanks for taking time to meet me...

Triton left the treasure room.

Merna: You did the right thing, Emma. I'll go comfort Triton. See you guys later. By the way, you can keep the shark tooth necklace.

"T-Thank you Merna." She bows a bit. "Thanks for showing me around. I'll be back at Asonja's Apartment." She swam up to the surface.

Liam: I'll be going with her.

Merna: Okay, see you soon.

Liam swam after Emma.

She appeared on the surface and went on land. She took off the necklace and stood. She waited for Liam.

Liam arrived at the surface, took off his necklace and stood up.

Liam: Well, how did you like that adventure?

"It was fun. And I'm still keeping this tiara." She giggled.

Liam smiled.

Liam: Glad you had fun. Let's go back to the apartment so we can rest. I'm tired of all that swimming.

"Me too." She smiled and picked him up. "I shall escort you there, my little child of wonders!" She giggled and walked to the apartment.

Liam blushed. Once they got to the apartment, Liam unlocked it and he and Emma walked inside. Afterwards, Liam locked the door and barricaded it again.

Liam: In case the enemy shows up.

Liam looked around.

Liam: Looks like Asonja still isn't back.

"Where is he~!?" Emma started freaking out again.

Liam: Calm down, he's probably all right. Let's sleep and see if he'll be back tomorrow.

"No, I don't want to sleep! I need him now!" Emma growls and tries prying open the door. "I will not rest until I find out he's okay or not!"

Liam: Okay then. Let's go find him.

Liam grabbed his sword and his backpack and opened the door. He and Emma walked out, and Liam locked the door again. He and Emma then walked off.

Emma was shaking a bit, as she was both mad and worried. "How can he leave us behind like this! I should've went with Triton or whatever his name was...."

Liam: *inside his mind* This is not good...If she's saying stuff like that, she's really mad at Asonja...

Meanwhile, with Asonja...

Him and another being beside him kept trying to fend off the larger creature but weren't doing so good. The large creature laughed.

Anonymous: Heheh...you call yourself a Bounty Hunter? You've gotten weaker after one whole year! I thought you'd be scary but you're a huge disappointment! I bet you don't even have a girlfriend yet.

Asonja: I do...but she's probably really mad at me right now. Because I'm having to clean up the mess you made.

??: Yeah! Even though I'm not a bounty hunter, I can kick your butt too!

Anonymous: Quiet, lizard! You're not even as important as gold to me!

He fired a flintlock pistol at ??, knocking him to the ground.

Asonja: No! You bastard!

Anonymous: What can I say, I should've used this from the very beginning. Say goodbye, hedgehog...

Another loud pistol shot was heard.

Back with Liam and Emma...

They heard a loud gunfire shot. This made Emma jump a bit. "W-...What was that?" Emma asked.

Liam: Oh no!

Liam ran over to the place where the gunshot came from.

Emma followed and she gasped. "N-no!"

Liam saw the large creature with a flintlock pistol aimed at Asonja, as it was recently fired. Him and another being beside him laid on the ground. The creature laughed. "Finally, no more of that lame Bounty Hunter. Now, where was I...?"

Liam: You son of a big one...You killed my friend!

"Hm? What're you doing here kid, get lost." He aimed his Flintlock pistol at him. Emma just stood there, really shocked.

Liam got a Plasma Rifle out of his backpack and aimed it at the large creature.

Liam: This thing is way stronger than your puny Flintlock Pistol, stupid monster. One shot could blow your head clean off.

"Whatever...this isn't your business. Now scram!" He shouted, and was about to fire the weapon but Asonja got back up and stopped the shot entirely by catching the ball.

Liam: Asonja, you're alive!

(I'm going to bed, because it's past 1 AM in The Netherlands, and I know from experience that staying up all night isn't good for you. See you real soon.)

(Yup. Same here. I stay up at like 3 AM now XD)

Liam joined Asonja in fighting the creature.

The creature backed off, going more toward Asonja. He noticed and took his two swords to cut the creature's ankles and step on his chest to disarm him. "You're comin' with us, Rodent!"

Liam: Yeah, what he said!

The creature growled loudly and shouted "You'll never take me in alive!" He armed a bomb to his hip but Asonja stabbed it with his sword (plus into the creature's side), disarming the bomb. He smirked and said, "Of course I'm taking you in there alive, dimwit. Now, come along." He put the sword out of the creature's side and put him to sleep with the back of his sword. He looked at Liam and Emma, who was running to him and hugging him, crying tears of joy.

Liam: I'm so glad you're okay, Asonja.

"I'm glad you guys are okay, more importantly." He noticed Emma's tiara and chuckled. "Seems you guys had a lot of fun as well. Sorry I kept you two waiting for a long time."

Liam nodded.

Liam: Yeah, we did. We'll tell you all about it.

Suddenly, Liam, Asonja and Emma heard guitar playing from not too far away.

Liam: Another guitar player. Who could it be?

Liam ran to the place where the guitar playing came from.

"Hm...you have fun Liam. I'm going back to my apartment for some alone time with Emma." He smirked a bit. Emma giggled and went with him back home.

Liam arrived at the location and saw Sally Acorn playing guitar and singing 'I won't give up' by Jason Mraz. As she sang, Liam's eyes started to fill with tears at Sally's beautiful singing voice. After she finished, Liam cried, and Sally noticed him.

Sally: Oh, hello...

Liam: Man, your singing voice is so beautiful. You made me cry.

Sally: Okay...

Liam dried his eyes and noticed Sally was sad too.

Liam: ...You don't look too good.

Sally: Yeah...My boyfriend Sonic now has something with Amy Rose, and now I'm sad...

Liam: That's sad...

Sally: I just don't feel like living anymore...

Liam: Hey, don't say that. You could always find someone else.

Sally: That's gonna be really hard...Sonic was the only one for me...

Liam: Well, let's go take a walk in Station Square. It might help.

Sally: Okay...

(Again, just so you know: I'm not a Sonamy shipper. I'm more of a Sonally shipper, but I thought this would make good roleplaying material.)

(Do what ya want, Idc what it is XD) Asonja stopped and seemed to be forgetting something. He told Emma to stay at his apartment as he went back to Station Square to pick up his "Lizard" friend back to his apartment.

(Kk.) Liam and Sally walked through Station Square.

Liam: There's millions of other boys out there who'd want you. Plus, there's still so much to live for. I mean, you're the last Acorn heiress. If you kill yourself, the Kingdom of Acorn will have no heir to the throne.

Sally: That is true...

Liam: Let's go to the local coffee shop. There'll be a singer performing there. That might cheer you up.

Sally: If you say so...

Liam and Sally went to the local coffee shop.

With Asonja and Emma...

Asonja put the Lizard down on his couch and tended to his wound. Emma sat on his bed drinking some tea while she waited for him.

When Asonja stepped in, she gave him some tea as well. He drank it and sighed in relief. "You make good tea, sweety." He smiled.

Emma smiled back and kissed him on the cheek. "Of course I do. I make the best tea." Asonja chuckled and looked at her. He asked, "So, what was your water adventure like with Liam?"

Emma happily explained in a lot of detail about the events she had. She forgotten about the coins and showed them to Asonja. He smiled and took them. "Wow...! Real Gold coins! Awesome!" He laughed happily.

With Liam and Sally...

Liam and Sally were sitting at a table at the local coffee shop. The singer, a rhino named Paul walked onto the stage with his acoustic guitar.

Paul: Thank you all for coming to my show tonight. I'm taking requests, if you got an itch for a favourite. You can tell me the name of the song you want to hear or tell me how you're feeling. It's all cool with me.

Liam shoved Sally over to Paul.

Liam: This girl here wants to share her mood with you.

Paul: Far out, kitten. Give it to me straight, mate. How you feelin'?

Sally: Sad, because my heart has been broken...

Paul: Okay. I got your vibe. My axe is hot to play, so cop a chair, Claire. And you cop a seat, Pete.

Liam and Sally sat down.

Paul: Here's a tune to make the blues seem like old news...It's called You Are Not Alone, by Michael Jackson.

Paul started singing the song.

Back with Asonja and Emma...

Asonja and Emma laid together in bed, as she talked about her adventures. Asonja was eagerly listening, his headband glowing a soft blue as he listened.

With Liam and Sally...

Paul has finished the song. Sally is in tears and claps, along with many audience members. Sally got onto the stage and kissed Paul.

Liam: Oh ho ho! Look who got all lovey dovey in a matter of time. I wasn't expecting it to escalate that quickly.

Sally and Paul were making out on stage. The audience went 'Awww' at the sight of it. Soon, a heart iris appeared around the two.

Liam: Good thing Alexneushoorn chose for the heart iris. (Another fourth wall break. XD) (I'll make one later too .3. -Sonicsilva1)

With Asonja and Emma...

Asonja smiled and his headband glowed pink now. Emma noticed and smiled too. "Does your headband always portrait your mood?"

Asonja nodded. "Sometimes, it like to do that. Anywho...lets have some fun...alone." Asonja said as he pushed the camera out of his room and the door shut itself closed and locked itself as well. The camera looked around for a bit and went to liam instead.

(Ooh, you dirty boy! >:3) (I can get even dirtier if this was ACTUALLY private and no one but us can see it. Trust me, I can go into so much detail, it could make you feel uncomfortable.) (So can I. I go into too many details too.)

With Liam and Sally...

Sally and Paul were now performing together. Liam was enjoying it, as were the rest of the audience members. Eventually the show was over, and the audience clapped and cheered.

Sally: Fox boy, thank you so much for giving me such a wonderful night and boy.

Liam: The name's Liam, and you're welcome.

Sally: Okay. Well, I'll see you real soon.

Liam: Okay.

Paul: Be sure to check out my next show, bro. Then I'll give you another tune that'll take you to the moon. By the way, the name's Paul Adler.

Liam: Okay. See you two soon.

Liam left the coffee shop and went to Asonja's apartment. He entered.

There was a bit of noise but it stopped, and Asonja's head poked out. "Oh, hey Liam. Could you check on my friend on the couch over there? He helped me fight the creature and I need to make sure he's okay."

Liam realized what was going on and smirked.

Liam: Will do.

Liam walked over to Asonja's friend and checked him.

Liam: He's fine.

"Good. Keep watching him, please. Thanks." He closed and locked the door again. The lizard-humanoid coughed a bit, and woke up. "Eh? Where am I? Who're you kiddo?"

Liam: I'm Liam Monteiro. I'm a friend of Asonja. Wanna hear a song?

"Uhm...sure." Liam noticed he had wings, as they were folded and hidden almost very well. He wasn't just a lizard, but a dragon which is extremely rare in Mobius alone.

Liam: Alright. Nice wings, by the way.

Lim got out his guitar and started singing 'The Birds And The Bees' by Jewel Akens. (Very fitting song, if I do say so myself. XD)

(You son of a gun! XD) "Thank you...this is a nice song." He hummed along with him, at a lower octave.

(Hahaha! XD) Eventually, Liam finished singing.

Liam: I love my role. (Yet another fourth wall break. XD)

"Interesting song. Thanks for sharing." The Dragon said.

Liam: You're welcome. What's your name, by the way?

"My name is Jason. I'm an Abnormal, mostly a dragon though." He replied nonchalantly.

Liam: Nice to meet you. Feel like watching some tv?

(I'm gonna head to bed. My parents asked me to not make it too late. Cya.)

(Sorry for coming late too. Cya) "I suppose. I never watched TV." He replied.

Liam: Okay.

He turned on the tv.

(Well lookie, I'm still awake XD) He got up and poked the TV. His wings and tail moved in curiosity. "So...can I reach in and touch the people on this screen?"

Liam: No, but you can watch people on it.

"Oh..." Jason replied and sat back down on the couch. "I see..."

Later, in the morning, Liam and Jason were asleep on the couch.

Asonja and Emma came out of the room. Emma was smiling and kissing Asonja on the lips.

"That was very fun, Asonja." Emma says, smiling. Asonja blushed and nodded. "It was. Also, I'm glad you have some company with Liam and Merna to help you calm down while I was gone."

Asonja looked at Liam and Jason who fell asleep. Emma giggled and kissed him on the cheek. "I'm going back home. I'll see you tomorrow back here, alright?" She said. Asonja nodded and kissed her right back. "Alright. Have a good night."

After Emma left he poked Liam awake. "Oi, how long have you been here?"

Liam: Huh, what? Oh, Jason and I watched tv until we fell asleep...

"Ah, I see. Is Jason all back to health? I was going to bring him out to Pizza tomorrow." Asonja said.

Liam: As far as I know, he's fine.

"Good. I'm glad he's okay." He sat up and stretched. "Anyway, I'm going to bed. Goodnight." He went back to his room.

Liam stared at the camera with an awkward look.

Liam: Oh well. Might as well go for a walk.

Liam left the apartment and went for a walk.

The camera panned awkwardly as Liam walked away.

(Welp, I'm out of ideas on how to start on a new chapter)

(I was thinking that Asonja and Emma find out Emma's pregnant and such. :3)

(If ye want x3)

The next Afternoon...

Asonja, Jason the Dragon and Liam were sitting in the apartment, watching TV and eating pizza with Coca-Cola.

Liam: Emma's got me hooked on watching Vinny McCartney: Brokebuster.

"I don't really get it anyway..." Asonja said, eating a piece of Pizza. Jason just drank Coca-Cola. Suddenly, the phone rang and Asonja picked it up.

"Hello, Asonja speaking?" He said. He was silent for a moment. "You're kidding...!" Asonja was shocked for a moment. "Emma, you MUST be serious, are you?" Asonja had a mix of confusion, happiness, and bewilderment.

Liam tilted his head in curiosity. He then looked at the camera.

Liam: I bet he got her preggers.

Audience: Oooooooh!

Liam: Wait, has this become a sitcom all of a sudden?

"I believe so...ah well. Thanks for telling me Emma, I cannot wait! I'll be right over." He hung up the phone. "Yup, I'm becoming a Dad"

Liam: Congratulations!

Jason just woke up. "Huh? Something about daddy?" He said drowsily. Asonja sighed and nodded. "Yes, Jason, I'm becoming a Father." This took Jason for a moment since he's always tired and very depressed oddly. "Oh...congratulations Asonja. I hope you have fun being a dad."

Liam: Do you hope the baby will be a boy or a girl?

"I dunno, to be honest. As long as it's our kid, it'll be alright." He said. Jason yawned and ate another pizza slice. Poor dragon hasn't been doing anything lately.

"Anyway, I'll be off to Emma's for a Baby Shower. See you two later!" He smiled and left the room with Liam and Jason.

Liam puts the key of Asonja's apartment in his backpack.

Liam: Hey, Jason, feel like going on a trip to the future?

"To the Future? Depends on how far we're going..." Jason replied. Jason wasn't actually born naturally, but born artificially. He sounded very uninterested in anything because his creator(s) forgot to put in Emotions into him.

Liam: We're going to 2036, 20 years later. It's where I come from.

"Ohh. Sweet. Maybe we can go check it out." Jason replied. He yawned and took one last bite out of the pizza. He practically ate the whole thing as well as the entire 2 liter bottle of Coca-cola.

Liam nodded, pulled Jason close to him, and pressed his time watch. The two of them beamed to 2036. They appeared in the living room of Liam's house.

Liam: Mom, dad, I'm back!

Zooey: Good, we were starting to worry.

Dave: So, how are things in 2016?

Liam: Really fun! I'm actually starting to make a home back there.

Zooey: I'm glad to hear that. Be sure to come back here sometime, okay?

Liam: Will do.

Dave: Who's your friend, by the way?

Liam: That's Jason. He's a friend of another friend, Asonja.

Dave: Well, nice to meet you, Jason.

"Hello." He waved. Luckily he turned into a human so that they wouldn't notice that he was a Dragon. "It's pretty lovely here. Lots of cool technology."

Zooey: I know. If you'd like, we could treat you to a meal at Meh Burger, unless you have already eaten something.

"Sure. I love Cheeseburgers." Jason replied. He didn't smile or anything, yet still agreed to go.

Zooey: Okay then, let's go.

The four of them went out to Meh Burger to have stuff to eat.

With Asonja...

There was a rather big party at Emma's house. Asonja got to meet Emma's entire family, which was really big and disappointing for him since he didn't have any family members to bring. He explained to them that he was adopted and has no idea who his family was. They said not to worry about it as he's with their family now. It lifted him a bit, but he still wondered what it was like to have a mother and father, like he was going to be soon.

Emma's dad was angry at Asonja for making his daughter pregnant, but kept his cool in front of everyone.

(I'm going to bed to avoid being grumpy during the day. See you tomorrow!)

(Alrighty. Sorry I was late anyway. Night!)

Meanwhile with Liam's Family and Jason...

Jason was barely eating his cheeseburger, but still took bites occasionally. "This future is awesome. Thanks for taking me here."

Liam: You're welcome, Jason. I've always wanted someone from the past to see the future, and now I finally get to do it.

Dave: So, how's your life in 2016 going so far?

Liam: I'll tell you all about it.

Liam told his parents about how he met Asonja, got into a relationship with Merna, helped Sally find a new boyfriend etc.

Zooey: You're such a sweetheart, Liam. And you're also lucky. Not everyone gets a princess. *sighs happily*

Dave: Your mother is right. You're a very lucky kid.

Liam: Yeah. Not only that, but Asonja's gonna be a dad soon.

Dave: Really? Cool! Congratulate him for us.

Liam: Will do.

Zooey: Well, it was nice to meet one of your new friends. I bet you'll have to return to 2016 now.

Liam: Nah, I can stay a bit longer. I mean, Asonja and Emma are having a baby shower, so we can just go around the island for a trip.

Zooey: Alright. Well, we'll see you guys soon.

Liam: Good. Jason, let's go.

Jason nodded and waited for the next location they will go to (Finally, I'm here at the right time XD)

Liam and Jason were soon exploring the jungles of Bygone Island.

Liam: Apart from Team Sonic and Dr. Eggman and his robots, no one's ever gone outside the village for as long as I can remember.

"Wow...pretty creepy." Jason said uninterested. He was actually very pleased that he was going outside, but it was hard to tell. He sounded like the smartest man who doubts his abilities.

Suddenly, they were ambushed by a giant snake with arms.

Liam: Oh no! A giant snake with arms! And I don't have my sword with me!

Jason just blinked at the snake and transformed into a dragon about twice the snake's size.

Liam looked at the camera, amazed at Jason's size.

Liam: That's one way of solving things.

The snake gulped and fled.

Liam: Great job, Jason.

(Sorry for the late responses, I'm busy preparing a fanfic for Fanfiction.net. XD)

(Tis fine .3.) Jason shrunk back to normal and turned back into a human. "You know that was like one-sixth of my full size, right?" He asked, still uninterested.

Liam: O.O No, I didn't know that.

"Well, I just thought I'd throw that out there. I can get very massive when I'm angry..." He then started to glare at Liam. "And nobody likes me when I'm angry..."

Liam: *gulp*

With Asonja and Emma...

Asonja was having dinner with Emma's family, opening gifts of all sorts. He was experiencing joy for almost the first time. "W-wow this is great. Thank you all so much for giving me these stuff." Emma giggled and hugged him, saying "You're welcome, sweetypie!" She giggled at the new nickname. Asonja chuckled a little as well.

Back with Liam and Jason...

Jason was back to regular stuff. "Sorry about that, I only know what Anger feels like."

Liam: It's okay. I understand. Well, let's go back to the village.

"Okay." He nods a bit. "Do you always go to the woods and something like...that snake just appears out of nowhere?"

Liam: This is the first time I've seen that thing.

"Huh...well if that's the case we should go investigate before it comes out again and brings some friends." Jason advised.

Liam: Great idea.

Liam went in the direction the snake fled in.

Jason stood in the front so he would be the first to be attacked instead of Liam. They were led into a cave. "Well, there's a cavern."

Liam: Maybe he went in here.

Suddenly, the snake jumped out.

Snake: ROAR! ME HUNGRY!

Liam screamed in fear.

Jason turned into a dragon and went to the same size as the snake. "He's mine..." He growled.

Snake: No, he's mine!

Jason growled. "Do you want me angry, slug?!"

Snake: You're on!

The snake hit Jason in the gut.

He growled and grew bigger, making him able to squish the snake easily with just his pinkie claw. This is, 1/3 his full size. "Do you want me bigger than this? I suggest you back-down now!" (Plot Twist, the snake can grow too XD) (Kk XD)

(I'm gonna take a little snooze and then watch Utopia. I'll be back around 8 PM Dutch time.)

(Alright. See ya! .3.)

The snake then grew bigger than Jason and smacked one of his teeth out.

Snake: Don't fuck with me!

"Oh....you're SO asking for it now!" He growled and grew to his full size, and a bit bigger. His total height was over about 1500 feet (Or 457.2 meters, since you're from somewhere else .3.). He smacked the snake with his front claw, swiping him in a long distance.

The snake flew into a volcano and burned to death. Liam's jaw dropped at this.

Liam: Whoa...

Jason continued to growl until he shrunk back down to Liam, but he was still in his dragon form. "Arrrgh...stupid slug thinks he's better than me...We should get inside before he gets back...what do you think?" He was trying to remain calm but he was still highly enraged, he shook violently. "I swear, I will eat him."

Liam: You're still in dragon form, dude.

"Right....right..." He formed back into his human. His eyes were still a dark purple, but they were human eyes. "Lets go before I lose my mind."

Liam nodded and he and Jason ran back to the village.

Jason was ahead of Liam. Probably way too far ahead. But he was so mad, he needs to get rid of his adrenaline. Who knows when that Giga snake will return.

Liam ran after Jason, but could barely keep up with him.

With Asonja and Emma...

Emma's dad looked angrily at Asonja. He could notice this.

"U-uhh...You okay?" Asonja asked him quietly. "What's up?"

Emma's Dad: Okay? Okay?! You made my god damn daughter pregnant, you little bitch! I did my best to keep my cool, but now I just need to let it all out on you!

Emma's Mom: Honey, calm down!

Emma's Dad: No, I'm not calming down! Time to meet my fist, kid!

Emma's dad punched Asonja in the face with enough force to knock him out.

He stumbled to the wall, his face bleeding a bit. Emma screamed and grabbed Asonja. "Asonja?! Are you okay?!" Emma growled and looked at her dad. "What the hell?!"

Emma's Dad: That little twat deserved that punch after impregnating you without MY say so!

(I'm just watching PBS shows on Youtube while roleplaying. XD)

(I'm watching Gravity Falls x3)

"We've been playing it safe for a LONG time dad!" Emma says. "I just wanted you to be happy that you were being a grandfather!" She slowly started to cry and then ran up to her room.

Emma's Mom: Are you happy now?!

Emma's dad growled, stormed up to his room, grabbed a suitcase, put a bunch of clothes in it, and stormed back down.

Emma's Mom: Where are you going?

Emma's Dad: Far away from this stupid place!

He got into his car and drove off.

Emma's Mom: ... *sighs deeply*

Emma's mom walked up to Emma's room and knocked.

Emma's Mom: Sweetie, are you okay?

She sniffles. She somehow brought Asonja up to her room. "N..n-no" She said weakly. She was hugging him as she said this. "Why does he have to be so mean to us? I just wanted to make him feel happy for once! He's never happy..."

Emma's Mom: That's because he had a bad childhood, dear. His father was never nice to him, and therefore, that's why he isn't nice to a lot of people. At his work, he verbally abuses his employees to work out his frustrations about his childhood. It's just not logical. He does love me, though, and he loves you too, but he shows his love in a different way.

"But he HURTS people in both ways possible, even...even himself and Asonja..." She hugged him tighter, tearing up more. "We have to do something about him, Mom...I don't want any of us to live like this and we have to help him get better..."

Emma's mom thought for a second.

Emma's Mom: You said Asonja had a time traveling friend named Liam, right?

"Yea-.." She gasped and hugged her. "Mom you're a genius! We'll go back in time and make my dad's childhood better! I wish I thought of this sooner!"

Asonja started waking up, rubbing his injured face. "Argh wait...what're we talking about?" He asked. Emma hugged him and put him onto her bed. "Don't worry about it, sweetie! Just stay here with my mom and I'll be right back!" She ran out of her room, a big smile on her face.

(I was thinking to go Christmas Carol and mentally torture him into changing his ways, but I guess that works too. XD)

(If you want to, there's always a different route to it XD)

(Kk. XD)

Over at Asonja's apartment, there was a note on the door.

Note: Out for a visit to the future. If you need something, call 0800-I LOVE MERNA - Liam.

"What?!" She growled a bit, and went to her cellphone, putting in the number. "Come on...how is this even possible?!" She muttered.

With Liam and Jason...

Liam and Jason were watching tv with Liam's parents when Liam's phone rang.

Liam: Hold on, gotta answer this one.

Liam got off the couch, walked into the dining room and answered the phone.

Liam: Yello?

"Liam, this is Emma. I need you back in 2016 now! It's really urgent...and how is this even working?!" She says.

Liam: I don't know. But I'll come.

Liam hung up and walked back to the living room.

Liam: Mom, dad, we gotta go. My buddy's girlfriend needs help.

Dave: Okay, Liam. Be sure you visit again some time.

Zooey: See you real soon.

Liam: Thanks. Come on, Jason. Let's go.

He nodded and jumped off of the couch. He was thinking about how he should turn into a dragon infront of Zooey and Dave in the most dramatic fashion possible. He smirked at this, as he was going to use this for later. "Alright. Let's go. Do I have to...hold onto your arm or something?"

Liam: No need.

Liam pulled Jason to him, pressed a few buttons on his time watch and they beamed to Asonja's apartment in 2016. They appeared behind Emma, startling her.

Liam: Alright, we're here. What do you need me for?

"We need to go further back into time to where my father was just a kid. He's really unhappy that Asonja got me....you know...and my Mom and I came up with idea and we need your help. Hello, other guy." She says, waving. Jason waved back, a bit awkward at first. He then says "Okay, enough screwing around, we need to get going."

Liam: I got an idea on how to make him nice.

Liam started explaining his Christmas Carol plan to Emma.

"Oh, I actually like that. It's going to be a bit tricky though, and we need to figure out WHEN, and WHERE this has taken place." Emma says, thinking for a while.

(I'm gonna go to bed now. I have decided to go to bed early to avoid being grumpy during the next day. Cya.)

(Kk, bye)

Liam: Let's see...

He looks through the time database on his time watch.

Liam: Is this your dad?

A picture of Emma's dad with the name Zeke Capulet appeared in a hologram from the time watch.

"Yes, that's him!" Emma nodded. Jason was looking around the apartment building in boredom.

Liam: Good.

Liam looked through Zeke's history.

Liam: He was born on April 12, 1967. Had a bad relationship with his dad, who died when he was 8. *inside his mind* I can already guess why... *to Emma* And he spent time in juvie because he was convicted of poisoning his dad. I guess I'll take your dad to 1975 first, then back here, then to the future.

"Alright. Thank you very much Liam." Emma smiled a bit, even giving him a little hug.

Liam blushed. He then pressed a few buttons on his time watch and transformed into a ghost. The ghost looked like Zeke's dad.

Liam: I'll be heading to your dad's location. Wish me luck

Liam teleported to Zeke's location.

Emma nodded and looked at Jason. "So uh...are you always this pale?" Emma asked. Jason shrugged. "Maybe. I'm not sure." He answered in boredom.

Meanwhile, Zeke was eating a pizza somewhere out in the desert. Suddenly, the lights of his car went off.

Zeke: What the fuck?

Suddenly, Liam, in disguise as Zeke's deceased dad, Kendrick Capulet, appeared out of nowhere and screamed at Zeke, startling him. His pizza splattered on him.

Zeke: How dare you! My pizza went to waste- Dad?!

Kendrick: Yes, Zeke, it's me.

Zeke: How are you even here?

Kendrick: I've been brought from the death as a ghost to haunt you. I'm glad to finally do something after all these years in the afterlife.

Zeke: This is crazy...

Kendrick: Anyways, I've come to warn you. You see these chains? These are my sentence for a lack of love and sympathy for my folks in life. 7 years ago, your chain was as long as mine, but with your mean spirited lifestyle, you've only made it longer. But, there's one way to escape this fate. Tonight, three spirits will be visiting you to help you change your ways. The first ghost will appear at 7 PM.

Zeke: Can't they all come at once?

Kendrick: The first one will appear at 7 PM!

Kendrick then teleported away.

Liam then turned back into his normal self and snickered.

Liam: Man, I'm so good at acting such parts.

With Emma...

(Sorry, I got caught up in a game.) Emma and Jason sat down outside Asonja's apartment door. Emma was explaining her relationship with Asonja and how she's going to be a mother. Jason looked uninterested as usual, but he said nice things.

"You know," Emma said. "I've always been confused: Why're you so...uninterested with everything?" Jason shrugged and sighed. "I wasn't naturally made; I was created to stop any evil going around in this world. Unfortunately I had a malfunction and my emotion chip was destroyed. Except that I can experience Anger and Boredom. That's about it."

"Oh..." Emma replied. "I'm sorry to hear that." She looked away, seeming guilty that she asked.

With Zeke...

Zeke was driving through the desert when the clock struck 7 PM. Suddenly a bright light appeared in front the car, forcing Zeke to stop. Zeke got out of the car. Out of the bright light, Charmy Bee, the Ghost of Zeke's Past, who was actually Liam in disguise, appeared.

Zeke: Are you the first ghost?

Charmy: Yeah, I am.

Zeke: But you're just a child.

Charmy: Don't worry. I can live for thousands of years. Let's go to the past.

Charmy pulled Zeke to him, and pressed a few buttons on his time watch. Afterwards, they were transported to the day Zeke's dad died.

Zeke: Good heavens...

He saw his dad punishing his 8 year old self.

Zeke: I remember this. I was so mad that my dad sexually harassed me that I poisoned his potato, causing him to die. I was charged with murder and spent my entire teens in jail.

Charmy: Do you regret doing that, Zeke?

Zeke: Yes, I do...

Charmy: Well, let's go back to 2016.

The two went back to 2016.

Charmy: I gotta go. Good luck, Zeke.

Charmy disappeared.

Liam had teleported away from Zeke before turning back to normal.

Liam: I love messing with this guy.

With Asonja and Emma's mom, Xenia...

Asonja had an icepack on his cheek, numbing the injury. He groaned a bit, tucked in bed. "Man this sucks...at least the bed is comfortable and I'm given Hot Cocoa. I haven't had Hot Chocolate in years."

Xenia: Sorry about my husband. He was sexually harassed by his father when he was 8 years old and spent his entire teens in juvie.

"That's understandable," Asonja stated. "It's pretty obvious for him to get like that. Liam is working on that as we speak."

Xenia: Yeah. I hope Liam will shape him into a good husband.

"Totally agree." He nodded, but then winced as it hurt him a bit. "Whoops, shouldn't have done that." He muttered. He did suffer from a concussion from hitting the wall.

Xenia: Should I take you to the doctor to check on that concussion of yours?

"Maybe...I dunno. If I become an Amnesiac by tomorrow, that would be a good time." Asonja said, drinking his cocoa from a bendy straw; He loved those too when he was raised.

Xenia nodded and took Asonja to the doctor.

With Emma and Jason...

They gotten into Asonja's apartment by Jason who broke open the door with his massive strength. Emma screamed a bit, as the door flew to the other side of the wall, making a small dent. "I'm not fixing that, I don't feel like it." Jason stated. Emma just sighed.

With Liam...

Liam shapeshifted into Rouge the Bat, then teleported to Zeke's location.

Zeke: Are you the second ghost?

Rouge: Yes. I'm gonna show you what people think of you right now.

Rouge took Zeke by the hand and they flew off into an alternate present. They landed at Alternate Asonja's apartment and looked through the window. On the couch was Alternate Asonja, watching soaps on tv.

He was just sitting there alone, eating some chips. And then two kids, one male and one female greeted him by jumping on the couch next to him.

Male Child: Hey Daddy, when's dinner going to be?

Female Child: Yeah, we're hungryyyy!

Alt Asonja sighs and pats the both of their heads. "I'm sorry guys but I'm trying all I can. Mom will be home soon, we'll get our pay, and we can take care of all of us."

Female C.: But why does Mommy have to work and not you?

Alt Asonja: I cannot be seen in the outside world...if I'm seen I'll be killed and I have to stay in here.

Male Child: Can't you just change your name and face?

Alt Asonja: That costs money, I cannot do that. We're not doing very well...we might not have enough money to send you kids to school...

Both Children: Noooo daddy!

They hugged him and started crying. Emma was still nowhere to be seen.

Zeke: If I only knew how fucked up Asonja's life was...

Rouge: We're not done yet. Let's take a look at how the vice president of your company, Remy Jongbloed is living.

Rouge took Zeke by the hand again and they flew to Remy's house. Once they arrived there, they looked through the window.

Remy was playing a guessing game with his wife and children.

Boris Jongbloed: Is it a man?

Remy: Yes.

William Jongbloed: Is he in his late 40's?

Remy: Yes.

Tanisha Jongbloed: Does he have a daughter?

Remy: Yes.

Boris: Does he have a heart?

Remy: No.

William: I know this one! Your boss, Zeke Capulet!

Remy: Good job, William! You guessed it!

Remy and his family laughed.

Zeke: Man...I can't believe they're saying that...It's because I'm such an asshole...

Rouge: You see those hobo's over there?

Zeke: Yes...

Rouge: You once said they should die and cause Mobius to lose more people, right? How do you feel about that now?

Zeke: Well, now I feel like I shouldn't have said that...

Zeke then noticed something behind Rouge. She opened her wings and two children were in it. A boy and a girl. They looked homeless.

Zeke: Poor children...Do they have a home?

Rouge: Aren't there any homeless houses then?

Zeke: *gulp*

Rouge took Zeke back to the normal present and teleported away.

Liam turned back to his normal self.

Liam: *snickers* Alright, time for my best role yet.

With Emma and Jason...

Jason sneezed like a little puppy. Emma gasped and hugged him, giggling. "Oh my goooooood! That was the most adorable sneeze I've ever heard!"

Jason was shocked at what just came out of his mouth. He was confused at what the sneeze was and its sounds, and how relieving it was. "Uhh...t-thank you?"

Meanwhile, with Zeke...

Zeke was standing on the beach of Station Square in an alternate future, with Liam, in disguise as Death himself standing next to him.

Zeke: You must be the final ghost.

Death: ...

Zeke: You are the most fearsome of all spirits I've met so far.

Death: ...

Zeke: You're not gonna speak to me, are you?

Death: ...

Death and Zeke walked the street. They stopped near a group of people who are talking.

Hedgehog Citizen: Did you hear about the old douchebag who just died?

Bat Citizen: Yeah, I did. And look, there's stuff from his house being sold.

Hippo Citizen: That guy was so evil, I think he deserved to die.

Gorilla Citizen: I hate to admit it, but I agree with you.

Zeke clearly doesn't know that they are talking about him. Death walked to Alternate Asonja and Alternate Emma's apartment and looked through the window. They were sitting on the couch, the kids dead from hunger.

Emma was trying to comfort Asonja. She was hugging him as Asonja was seen, crying. Emma was tearing up too, both of them sobbing.

Zeke was then at a cemetry.

Zeke: Ghost, please tell me who the old douchebag is!

Death: ... *points at Zeke's grave*

When Zeke saw his grave, he started crying.

Zeke: I don't want this to happen! Okay, I promise to change my ways.

Death nodded and brought him back to 2016 and teleported away. Liam then changed back to normal.

Liam: Mission accomplished.

Liam then teleported to Emma and Jason's location.

Liam: Emma, I did it. He promised to change his ways.

"Really? Thank you so much Liam!" She gave him another hug and got up, waving goodbye to Jason. He waved good-bye too as she made her way home.

Liam blushed again.

Liam: So, how did you do while I was gone, Jase?

Jason shrugged. "I was fine. Emma took care of me."

Liam: Good.

With Asonja and Xenia...

Asonja and Xenia just returned from the doctor to check on Asonja's concussion. The doctor said to go see a dentist to remove the tooth next to the hurting tooth and use soft food for two weeks.

Xenia: I'm gonna take you to the 24/7 dentist now.

Asonja sighed and nodded. "Alright...this just really sucks."

Xenia took Asonja to the dentist. About an hour later, they were back outside.

Xenia: How do you feel, Asonja?

"I feel slightly better..." He replied, rubbing the side of his cheek. "I'm still a bit drowsy from the medication and I feel like sleeping for the rest of the day..." It was only Noon.

Xenia: I'll take you back to my house so you can sleep.

Once they arrived back home, Xenia put Asonja in Emma's bed.

Xenia: Sleep well, Asonja.

"I will. Thank you." He smiled a little bit, like he was smiling at his own mother.

Meanwhile, with Emma...

Emma was still running back to her house. She didn't see her dad anywhere, which made her worry a bit more.

Finally, she arrived home. "Mom? Dad? Are you home?" She called after closing the front door.

Xenia: I'm here, sweetie. Your dad still isn't home.

"Liam took care of him for a while. I hope he changes just once." Emma sighs and gave Xenia a hug. "Anyway, where's Asonja? Is he going to be okay?"

Xenia: Asonja is in your bed. I took him to the doctor and then to the dentist to remove a concussion and now he's sleeping.

"Aww...poor Asonja." She let go of her. "I'll go see him. Thanks for taking care of him while I was gone, mom." She smiled and went upstairs.

Xenia smiled when Zeke entered.

Zeke: Honey, I'm home. And I realized how much of an asshole I am. I'm going to be very nice from now on.

Xenia: That's good to hear.

Zeke: I'm going to Emma now.

Zeke went upstairs and to Emma's room.

Zeke: Emma, I'm sorry about earlier. I was such a big asshole that I didn't have any idea what I was doing. I hope you can forgive me.

(Going to bed. Bye.)

(Cya. I had to get dinner, sorry I didn't tell you)

Emma looked at him for a moment, and into his eyes. She smiled and then hugged him. "Thank you Dad. I'm glad you're back. So you're okay with being a Grandfather?"

Zeke: Yeah, I am now. You and Asonja have my blessing.

She smiled again, and kissed him on the cheek. "Thank you Daddy. Our kid will be the cutest you'll ever see."

Zeke: I sure hope so.

2 weeks later...

Liam, Emma and Asonja were at the beach, holding their shark tooth necklaces in their hands. Emma was wearing a swimsuit.

Liam: Okay, Asonja's mouth has healed, so we can finally swim as Merbians together. Take it from me, Asonja, Emma looks really hot as a Merbian. :3

Asonja blushed, and Emma giggled. "Sure do! You know you love me~!" She leaned toward Asonja, making him blush more. They laughed and put on their necklaces once they got in the water. Emma already dived in.

"You comin' Liam? Or will I have to tell Merna that you got someone else? >:3" Asonja asked.

Liam quickly ran into the water and put on his necklace, gaining his tail.

Liam: Heh, race you guys to Mertopia.

Liam dove under the water and swam off quickly.

Asonja followed far behind, still having trouble with his fear of swimming into the dark. Emma swam up to him and held his hand and dragged him. He suddenly felt better; he just needed someone to guide him through the darkness.

Eventually, the three of them reached Mertopia. Liam got there first.

Liam: Looks like I win.

Emma sighed. "I know you're trying to make this fun but, Asonja's fear of darkness is still getting worse. Next time, we need to bring a flashlight or something for him." Asonja came down last, shivering just a bit.

Liam: Yeah, we should bring a waterproof flashlight for him.

???: Hey, you guys!

Liam turned around to see who said it.

Emma and Asonja looked at who said it as well (What, you're expecting me to know who it is? x3)

(Nope, was just waiting for them to look too. XD)

It was Sally! The only difference is that she had a light blue fishtail instead of legs, just like Liam. She was wearing a shark tooth necklace as well.

Liam: Whoa, Sally, you're beautiful!

Sally: Thank you. Merna and I met the other day, we were talking, and she gave me this shark tooth necklace which turned me into a Mermunk when I put it on. Merna and I became fast friends and we spent a lot of time underwater together.

Liam: Cool. Where's Merna?

Sally: She's over at Mertopia Springs getting a refreshing treatment. While we wait for her to be finished, wanna swim with me?

Liam: I'm in. What about you guys?

Liam looked over at Emma and Asonja.

Emma and Asonja looked at each other for a moment. Emma said, "We'll just be talking a quiet swim to ourselves and chat."

Liam: Alright. Let's go, Sally.

Sally: Okay.

Liam and Sally flexed their light blue tails and swam off.

(Sorry if I'm not responding frequently)

Emma held Asonja's hand and they slowly swam off to a nearby park, talking about future plans

(It's okay.)

After a while of swimming, Liam and Sally laid down in a seaweed bed, looking at the sea creatures swimming past.

Liam: So, how's you and Paul going so far?

Sally: It's going great. Paul is really sweet, and he sings me such amazing songs.

Liam: Good, good.

Sally: Merna has told me that she has a relationship with you.

Liam blushed.

Liam: Yeah, she does. She's such a pretty Merhog princess.

Sally: She certainly is. She also has the most beautiful voice in the sea, just like her mother.

Liam nodded.

Liam: I've heard her sing, and she certainly has a beautiful voice.

Sally: Well, wanna grab some fish nuggets at the Krusty Krab?

Liam: Sure.

Liam and Sally sped off like torpedo's, back to Mertopia.

With Asonja and Emma...

They were sitting down at the bench in the park, talking about what to do around here and they watched the fish swim around.

Back with Liam and Sally...

Liam and Sally were eating fish nuggets in the Krusty Krab.

Sally: The stuff they make here is really good.

Liam: Mhm. If had the money, I'd buy the recipes from Mr. Krabs.

Mr. Krabs walked over to Liam.

Mr. Krabs: Watch what you say, laddy. The only thing no amount of money can buy from me is the recipes for the food here. That's top secret.

Liam: Sorry, sir.

Mr. Krabs: Alrighty.

Mr. Krabs walked over to Squidward and talked to him.

Suddenly, Triton entered the Krusty Krab.

Triton: Alarm! Merna has been kidnapped!

Liam: What? By who?

Triton: By some guy named Scourge.

Liam grit his teeth.

Liam: Scourge...I met him during one of my adventures, and I hated him right off the bat...He's gonna pay for kidnapping my little princess...

Sally: I'll come with you.

Triton: Me too.

The three of them swam out of the restaurant to find clues on Merna's whereabouts.

With Asonja and Emma...

(Sorry, I gtg. Bye)

(Bawww... :C)

Asonja looked a bit weirded out. "I just got a strange feeling that something bad is happening while Liam and Sally are doing their own thing..." He said. Emma raised an eyebrow and asked, "What did you feel?" Asonja answered, "I think Merna was kidnapped."

Emma's response: "Bummer mejores. We should get to them immediately and help out." Asonja nodded and they quickly swam to the Krusty Krab where they were at.

(They just left, but okay. XD)

Mr. Krabs saw Asonja and Emma enter.

Mr. Krabs: Ahoy, kids. If yer lookin' fer the yellow Merfox and the brown Mermunk, they just left with Prince Triton to find Princess Merna.

Asonja nodded and already left to go find them. Emma said, "Thanks." She soon followed Asonja to go search out for the others.

Meanwhile, Liam, Sally and Triton's search for Merna led them to a cave. They entered it and saw Merna chained to a wall. Scourge, who was in Merhog form and wearing a shark tooth necklace was kissing Merna. Merna tried fighting Scourge with her tail, but Scourge had his tail wrapped tightly around Merna's.

Liam got REALLY angry when he saw it.

Liam: Hands off my girl!

Scourge: What are you gonna do? Punch my teeth down my throat?

Liam grabbed Scourge and punched his front teeth down his throat. Scourge screamed in pain.

Triton: You really shouldn't give him idea's.

Scourge: Fuck...

Liam unchained Merna and held her protectively.

Liam: If you put your lips on my girl's lips one more time, I'll make you see things in 4D!

Scourge: You son of a...

Scourge was about to attack Liam when Asonja and Emma entered the cave.

Asonja pointed to Scourge as if they have met before. "I knew I'd see your face somewhere around here. Prepare to get crushed." Emma smirked and put her fists together.

Scourge: *gulp*

(I'm gonna shower soon. I'll be back ASAP.)

(Kk. Sorry for not getting here sooner, I got up SUPER later than I normally would.)

(FINALLY back. Sorry it took so long. I had to eat dinner first, then go to the toilet before finally getting in the shower. But now I'm finally back.) (Oki doki.)

Emma then swam up to Scourge and right-hooked him in the face to the wall. "You should be ashamed of yourself! Creep!" She swam back to Asonja, as if expecting him to join in. He didn't though.

Scourge: I'm gonna tell everyone in Mobius about your existence and you will be hunted to extinction!

Merna punched Scourge unconscious.

Merna: Let's take this guy to jail.

Everyone nodded and they took Scourge to Mertopian Jail. He was locked up in solitary confinement.

Merna: Thanks for saving me, guys.

Liam: You're welcome.

Emma and Asonja nodded as well. "I knew I felt something odd." Asonja states like he was the one who got everyone to his location. Emma sucker-punched his shoulder, giggling.

Merna noticed a small bump forming in Emma's stomach.

Merna: Are you pregnant, Emma?

"Oh! Yes, I am! I was going to tell you but you already seemed to have figured it out." She smiled and hugged Asonja.

Merna: Congratulations.

Sally: Yes, congratulations.

Sally was flexing her light blue Mermunk tail.

Emma giggled, still hugging Asonja. She said "Thank you...It's the happiest point in my life." Asonja nodded, agreeing to the same thing for him.

Merna: Can't wait to have any children with Liam. <3

Liam: Heh... *rubs the back of his neck*

Merna: So, you guys wanna hang out at the palace?

Liam: Sure.

Sally: I'd love to.

Triton: Yeah.

Emma and Asonja nodded, Emma saying "Of course!"

Merna nodded and everyone swam to the palace. Once they got there, the girls hung out in Merna's room and the guys hang out in Triton's room.

Sally: I'm basically the only girl in this room who doesn't have something fishy on their upper body. I mean, Merna's body is covered in fishy stuff up to her shoulders, and Emma has a shell bra.

Merna: *giggles* Yeah.

Emma just blushed and giggled too. "It is a nice sweater though. It matches very well with your tail."

Sally: Yeah, the bra color matches your tail color very well, Emma.

Meanwhile, Liam, Asonja and Triton were discussing guy things.

Triton: Did you guys know they play football down here in the sea?

Liam: Really? Awesome!

Triton: I know. What sport do you like the most, Asonja?

"Hm? Oh! Uhh...I don't normally watch sports on TV but normally I watch like Baseball or Basketball." He answered.

Triton: One time, I was watching sport bloopers, and I saw Sonic the Hedgehog and Knuckles the Echidna playing basketball. Knuckles ended up being distracted by Rouge the Bat who was dressed as a hot cheerleader, causing Knuckles to get hit in the face with a basketball. Knuckles was slapped in the face by his girlfriend Julie-Su, but they made up later.

Liam chuckled.

Asonja laughed a bit himself, but most of the time he looked rather expressionless. He's always like this when socializing. "Wow, that's hilarious."

Triton: I know, right?

Back with the girls, Merna got a great idea.

Merna: Say, girls, why don't we go shopping in Mertopia?

Sally: Great idea.

Emma squealed with joy. "I'd love to go!"

Merna: Let's let the guys know we're going.

Merna swam to Triton's room and peeked inside.

Merna: Boys, we'll be shopping in Mertopia. You have fun.

Triton: Sure.

Liam: Alright.

Asonja nodded "Have fun, girls. And Emma, be safe, would ya?"

Emma giggled and nodded. "I'll keep the baby and I safe." She kissed him on the lips and went back to the doorway, waiting for everyone else.

(I'm gonna go to bed soon. See you.)

(Bye. I had to eat dinner)

Merna, Sally and Emma swam off to the nearby shopping mall.

Triton: I just got an idea! Let's go to the bar and get drunk!

Liam: Triton, I'm only 8. I can't have alcohol.

Triton: Oh...Well, we could always do something else. How about we go see a movie?

Liam: Fun!

Asonja shrugged. "I was fine with the drunk thing but sure. What movie?"

Triton: Let's watch Jurassic Sea World.

Liam: Okay. You lead the way to the cinema, Triton.

Triton: Will do.

Liam, Triton and Asonja swam to the nearby cinema.

"Hmm...I have a strange feeling." Asonja said to himself.

Triton: What kind of feeling?

"Like...we're walking into a trap or something." He replied. "I don't know why. I just feel it."

Triton: Relax, it'll be fine.

Triton swam up to the ticket stand.

Triton: Hello. I'd like 3 tickets for Jurassic Sea World, please.

Ticket Stand Worker: Sure. Two teens, one kid, I see.

Triton: Yeah.

Ticket Stand Worker: Here you go.

The guy gave Triton the tickets.

The boys then bought some popcorn and drinks and then entered the theater.

Meanwhile, the girls were having a fun time at the mall.

Merna: Emma, how does this fedora look on me?

"It looks gorgeous!" Emma smiled, giggling.

Merna: Thanks. Then I'll be buying it.

Sally: Hey, girls, how do these sunglasses look on me?

Merna: Really good. What do you think, Emma?

"Ooo, very cool!" Emma says, clapping. She grabbed a neat green sweater with yellow stripes. "What about this?"

Merna: We actually don't wear clothes down here in the sea. But I bet it would be a great souvenir for yourself or your family back on land.

"Yeah, true." Emma said. "It looks kinda cute."

Merna: Then buy it.

After the movie was finished, the boys swam out of the cinema.

Triton: That was a masterpiece!

Liam: Agreed. A true blockbuster if I've ever seen one.

(I'm taking it you're having dinner again. I'll be going, because I got school again tomorrow. Cya.)

(Cya. I was jhust about to leave for dinner)

(See you tonight or something.)

Asonja nodded, still looking expressionless. "Of course. I liked the part where the dino escaped from the cage and wrecked havoc all over the place. I've never really been to a cinema either."

Triton: Well, there's a first time for everything. Well, let's see if the girls are back from their shopping trip.

The boys swam back to the palace. Once they entered the living room, they saw the girls watching Vinny McCartney: Brokebuster on the palace tv.

Sally: Oh, hey, boys. We were just watching Vinny McCartney: Brokebuster.

Merna: What did you do?

Liam: We went to the movies. We watches Jurassic Sea World.

Merna: Cool. We bought a lot of stuff at the mall. We also got you boys some stuff.

Merna, Sally and Emma showed the boys their stuff.

Merna: Here's that new Call of Poopy game you wanted, Triton.

Triton: Thanks, sis.

Merna: No problem, big brother. Liam, I got you a Mertopian Sword. It's even better than the sword you have.

Liam: Thanks, sweetie.

Merna: No problem, honey.

"Oh! I also got Asonja this cute little sweater! I thought you'd like it since you always wear Grey all the time." Emma said and gave it to him. He takes it nonchalantly. He smiled a bit and said "Thanks"

(Sorry I've been gone, I was hanging out with a friend)

(Kk.)

Liam looked on his water proof time watch.

Liam: Oh no! It's 5:45 PM! We should get going!

Emma and Asonja nodded. Emma got up and said goodbye to everyone, hugging beside Asonja to wait for Liam.

Liam kissed Merna and then swam back to the surface with Emma and Asonja. Once they got to the beach, Liam took off his necklace, regained his legs and stood up.

Liam: Well, that was a fun day. Who knew they had all sorts of electronica down in the deep blue sea?

Asonja shrugged and Emma giggled.

"It was totally fun! I'd be down there all day if I wanted to." Emma says, smiling. "But I'd rather be with Asonja." She said, nuzzling close to him. He blushes and smiled.

Liam: Well, Asonja and I will be heading back to Sonny's apartment. We'll see you later, Em.

Liam quickly ran back to the apartment.

Emma and Asonja waved goodbye and headed to their own apartment. They spent the rest of the night watching Blu-Ray movies.

(Also, I was thinking: Since Emma's pregnant, when she's in Merchidna form, does the baby become a Merbian when she does, so the baby will survive all the water Emma's breathes in through her gills or something?)

Liam was sitting on the couch, watching a new cartoon called Deep Sea Love. (That's the name of a Roblox movie I made with a friend. :3)

(I dont even remotely know if that's possible.)

(Neither do I. I was wondering if the baby would survive in Emma's stomach while she's underwater.)

(Probably. I guess?)

(Okay then.)

Liam later fell asleep and dreamed he was in Deep Sea Love.

Emma was in bed but Asonja stayed up. He was feeling uneasy for a moment and went out of the apartment, looking around. He had his headband on, as he glowed a dim black.

"Something isn't right here..." He muttered.

Liam was really enjoying his dream.

Liam: Oh, yeah...Oh, yeah...This is nice...This is very nice...

Liam accidently wet the couch and woke up.

Liam: OH YEAH! Wait a minute...

Liam then saw he wet the couch.

Liam: OH GOD! Stupid...wet...dream...

Liam got the couch cushions from the couch and washed them.

Liam: *mumble* Sperm... *mumble* Why do they have to be so real...?

He then saw Asonja.

Liam: What's the matter, Sonny?

"I just felt something weird. And...did you just wet yourself?" He asked, confused.

Liam blushed massively in embarrassment.

Liam: Yeah...On the couch...Do you have any spare couch cushions?

"No. I'll clean them." He says, sighing. "And please don't call me 'Sonny' again. You're half as old as me, not three times as old."

Liam: I thought it was a nice nickname.

"I don't really find it a good nickname, sadly." Asonja said, tightening the headband. "Stay inside, please."

Liam: Okay.

Liam grabbed a few blankets from the closet and laid down in a corner of the living room.

After a while of nothing happening, he sighed and went back inside the apartment. He closed the door and put the headband on the wall. He saw Liam in the corner. "Uh...what're you doing?"

Liam: You said you were gonna clean the cushions. But to be honest, I already washed them, so now that they are drying, I decided to sleep in the corner of the room while the cushions dry.

"Alright...you do that." Asonja stated, walking to his room. He seemed very emotionless more than he used to, seeming to be upset or something.

Liam looked worried, but shook it off and went back to sleep.

The next morning, Liam woke up and made breakfast for himself, Emma and Asonja. He walked into Asonja's room with Asonja's breakfast.

Liam: Asonja, I made you some breakfast.

He woke up, rolling up. "Oh uh...thank you Liam. That's nice of you." He sits up.

Liam handed Asonja his breakfast, then walked out the room and came back with Emma's breakfast.

Liam: Some for you too.

Emma smiled and hugged him. "Thank you Liam. You're such a sweet angel." She patted his head. He can see her belly getting really big.

Liam blushes massively.

Liam: Looks like the baby is coming along really well.

"Yup!" She rubbed her belly. "I wonder what their gender will be."

Liam: Me too. So, what do you guys feel like doing today?

Emma shrugged. "I was going to make Asonja wear that cute sweater I got in the mall. I thought it would make him look less...colorless, you know what I mean?"

Liam nodded.

Liam: Well, I'll be out for a walk if you need me.

Liam walked out the door and took a walk across the beach. Suddenly, he was beamed up into the sky, ending up in heaven.

Liam: *gasp* Am I in heaven?!

God: Yes, you are.

Liam: It's the good Lord himself! Hello, sir.

God: *chuckles* Just call me God.

Liam: Okay, God. Why am I up here?

God: Because you have been a very good person, helping people with love problems. Therefore, I am proud to present you with the Golden Cupid Prize.

A golden trophy appeared in God's hand and he handed it to Liam.

Liam: Thank you.

God: You're welcome. Now, back to Mobius!

God sent Liam back to Mobius. Liam looked at the trophy and smiled, then ran back to the apartment to show the trophy to Emma and Asonja.

Liam: Guys, look what I got!

Emma smiled and clapped. "Great job!" Asonja was still eating his breakfast and saw the trophy. "Oh. Nice." He said and went back to his room.

Liam frowned at this.

Liam: He's always jealous when I get a trophy or a medal. He's never happy for me. :C

Liam put the trophy on the table, grabbed his shark tooth necklace and ran off.

(Going to bed, by the way. I got a summer party at my school tomorrow and I have to get enough sleep.)

(Alrighty. Have fun)

Emma sighed and talked to Asonja about it. He explained that he never got a reward before, no matter how hard to tried. Emma showed him her belly.

"This is a reward. A trophy. You're going to be a father, Asonja. That's a trophy in my book." She smiled and Asonja hugged her.

Meanwhile, Liam was sitting in a cave under the sea, depressed. He had his hands on his tail and had a sad look on his face.

Liam: Why does he always get jealous of my awards...?

A Merbian swam up to him. "Yo dude, are you feelin' okay? You're not supposed to be in here at a time like this."

Liam: I'm a bit down because of something a friend said...And why shouldn't I be in here?

"It's a bit dangerous to go in at this time. Rumors have it that some kind of monster lives in there. A Merdragon, I think." He replied.

Liam: Oh, man. That's not good.

Liam got up and swam out of the cave.

Liam: Nice to meet you. I'm Liam. I'm Princess Merna of Mertopia's boyfriend.

"Ah, I've already heard a lot about you. There's been several shippings going on about you and Merna. Do not ask, I'm not one of them just an observer." He chuckled a bit.

Liam blushed.

Liam: So, what's your name?

"Uhm...call me Adam. Listen, I heard you talking about someone who was jealous of rewards...?"

Liam: Yeah, my friend Asonja is. I got a trophy from God himself for my help in the love, and he's jealous of that, which hurt my feelings.

(I'm gonna pull the battery pack out of my laptop, because the start button isn't working. I'll be back ASAP.)

(Kk)

"Ah. I see. Listen, I've known Asonja ever since we were in Kindergarten together. He was jealous of everyone because they got rewards and he didn't. He's a nice kid, but he always doubts his abilities more than anyone does. He's a hard worker too. He's very good at Math and Science than anyone is. He doubts himself and gets him in Regular classes instead of Honors or Advance Placement classes."

(Back.)

Liam: Yeah, Asonja doesn't have a lot of confidence. But he now has a girlfriend and they will have a child together soon. Anyway, since you know Asonja, does that mean you used to be a Mobian?

"Well, I was actually a Merbian the entire time. Like the Shark Tooth Necklace, I wore magical pants that gave me legs."

(I prefer to call them Merbians, but if you wanna call them Mermobians, that's fine. XD)

Liam: How do you even put those pants on if you have a tail?

"I'd show you but I'd drown. Just slap them on to the tail and they slip themselves on."

Liam: Okay. Feel like getting a coffee on land?

"Sure. Got nothing better to do." He shrugged. He acted much like Asonja oddly, but looked more like a human.

(If he looks more like a human, wouldn't he be a merman then?) (He's not. I'll explain in a minute .3.) (Kk.)

Liam nodded and he and Adam went to the land. Later, they were sitting in a coffee shoop drinking coffee.

Liam: Hope you're enjoying your coffee.

"It is delicious. Just the way I like it." He nods. His pants match anything he's wearing, which was a white shirt. His pants were Khakis.

Liam: Good. I'm not sure if Asonja will be happy to see you, but feel like going to his apartment?

(Going to bed now. See you.) (Cya. Sleep well)

"Sure. He hasn't seen me in a long time."

Liam: Okay then.

He and Adam finished their coffees and then went to Asonja's apartment.

Liam: Hey, Asonja, I brought an acquaintance from your school!

Asonja looked over from the TV and saw Adam. "Adam! I thought you moved to Spain!" He got up and walked over to them. Adam replied, "I did, but I moved to the sea where I belong." Asonja jumped a bit and said, "Wait, you're a Merbian?" Adam nodded. "The whole time." He chuckled.

"You never told me until now." Asonja said. Adam shrugged and replied "I know I know. I was worried about what you would say. Anyway, Liam told me you were jealous of the rewards he's been getting. I told him that you've never gotten any of them because you doubt your abilities too much."

Asonja got grim again. "Yeah...I do that a lot. Emma told me that making a child was an achievement in itself." Adam smiled a bit and give him a one-armed bro-hug. "Listen pal, we've been partners for a long time. That's an achievement in itself. And remember the time we pranked the principle in our Senior year better than anyone else? That too wan achievement."

Asonja smiled again and pushed him away lightly. "Don't remind me about that, it was your idea anyway!" He laughed. "Oh my god his face was priceless." Adam laughed too.

Liam smiled about that Asonja was happy to see Adam.

Liam: So, do you guys feel like having a burger?

Adam shook his head. "Nah, but thanks for the offer. I got a steak dinner with my crush." He smirked and said goodbye to Asonja before leaving. "I'll be in the ocean if you need me."

Liam: Maybe you, your crush, Emma and Asonja could do a double date? :3

Asonja blushed at this and looked away. Adam just laughed. "No, that would be a bit awkward, kid. By the way, come tomorrow night at 00:00 at the cave I found you at. I got something to show you there too."

Liam: Okay. Will do.

He nods and leaves. Soon Liam and Asonja were by themselves.

"Well...I'll be back at the TV." He says and sits down. There was a folded piece of blueish-grey paper on the kitchen table.

Liam saw it, walked over to it, unfolded it and read it.

It was his report card from his Senior Year. His GPA was larger than he's ever seen, a 4.07 (Which is VERY good in my state x3). He was in the Top 5 of the entire school of 256.

Liam: Wow, Asonja. You really performed to the highest standard in school, did you?

"Yeah, but nobody hardly gave two shits. Being the smartest in the school just meant you were the lowest class, from what they've said anyway." He changed the channel when he saw Deep Sea Love. He had a rather disgusted face on for a moment as he switched to Basketball.

Liam: Bawww, I wanted to see Deep Sea Love. :C

"Alright alright fine..." He changed the channel back to it. "But yeah, nobody cared."

Liam: That sucks.

Liam then started watching Deep Sea Love.

Liam: Bradley and Luna are such a cute mercouple.

"They sure look to be it. When will they bang?"

Liam: Not sure. Maybe in a few episodes. Maybe next season. Who knows? I'm sure they'll bang someday.

He then thought of something and smirked, looking at Liam ominously. "I think I might know why you pissed yourself while you slept."

Liam blushed massively.

Liam: Please don't tell Merna! She'll dump me if she finds out!

"I didn't plan on it. But maybe if you actually plan on doing that to her...it would make her dreams come true, you know."

Liam: True. I mean, you banged Emma when you guys were like 15 or something, so an 8 year old banging a 15 year old shouldn't be much of a problem.

"Bruh, I'm Seventeen." Asonja rolled his eyes. "It wouldn't hurt to try though. Bring some safety with you."

Liam: Like a condom for Merbians or something?

"Pretty much. I'm sure they got one. Trojan's the most powerful we have up here in the surface." He shrugged.

Liam: I'll call Merna to ask what the most powerful condom they have in the sea is.

Liam grabbed his phone and called Merna.

Liam: Hello, Merna?

Merna: Hey, Liam! Great to talk again!

Liam: Yeah, it's great to talk again. :D

Merna: So, did you need something?

Liam: Yeah, I do.

Liam explained Asonja's idea to Merna.

Merna: Oh, Liam, that's something I've wanted to do too!

Liam: So, I need the most powerful condom in the sea for it.

Merna: Okay, I'll tell you everything.

Merna told Liam everything he needed.

Liam: Okay, thanks, sweetie. Let's do it soon. :D

Merna: Okay! :D

Liam: Talk to you soon.

Merna: Okay. Love you.

Liam: Love you too.

Liam hung up.

Liam: Okay, I'm gonna prepare for it. But first, I'm gonna go do something with Adam tomorrow at midnight.

"Alright. You'll get a learning experience through this, and it should be fun." Asonja said. "I wonder what Adam will show you."

Liam: Me too.

(Going to bed now. Just one more day of school and then it's weekend time.)

(kk. When do you get out of school?)

(15:00 PM Dutch time. Dunno what that would be in your time. I usually get home around 15:45 PM, I do some stuff, take a shower and then I roleplay.)

(There should be some converters online. I am in EST, American Eastern Standard time. I believe I am 6-7 hours behind.)

(I see.)

The next day, at midnight, Liam was swimming in the ocean in his Merfox form. He arrived at the cave where he met Adam.

(Now I'm gonna play a little game, take a shower and then I'll be back.)

(kk. Sorry I answered late, I'm playing some Minecraft with friends)

(Okay, back.)

(kk)

Adam was there waiting. "Oh, there you are! How about we go in the cave to find that Merdragon and bust the myth?" He tossed him a waterproof flashlight.

Liam: Alright. I brought my Mertopian Sword for defense.

Liam swam into the cave.

Adam went ahead of him, looking around without a flashlight. The cavern was actually very pretty looking. Pretty strange for a dragon to live here.

Liam: This is a pretty cavern. Why would a Merdragon live in here?

Adam shrugged. "Dunno. Probably because either 1, People witnessed it or 2, It already lived here since the beginning of Mertopia." (If I said that correctly)

(Yeah, you said it correctly.)

Liam: Mertopia's probably older than most of the Merbians that live in the sea. That means the Merdragon would be really old. I think it would make more sense that it was witnessed.

Liam shined his flashlight around the cavern to see if the Merdragon was around.

Adam then stopped him. "Hold on. Do you hear that?"

Everything was quiet until they heard a low growl, like a snore.

"That must be the Merdragon. Keep quiet and follow me. I know where to go. Turn off the light."

Liam nodded and turned the flashlight off, then followed Adam.

The low growling started to get louder and louder as they got closer. Soon, the natural light of the cracks started to come in, showing a HUGE Merdragon curled into a ball.

Adam was shivering from its massive size. However, Liam got the sudden impression that he knows who this is, even though he's never seen a Merdragon in his life. (You know who it is? x3)

(I already had a feeling. XD)

Liam: *whispering* I know this guy...This is Jason...

Adam whispered back. "Wait, is he like your pet or something?"

Liam: *whispering* No, he's a friend of Asonja. He's a dragon who can transform into a human. It's really cool. Let me wake him up for you.

Liam swam over to Jason and patted him softly.

Liam: Jason, Jason. Wake up. It's me, Liam.

His eyes slowly opened and he looked at him. "Liam...? What're you doing down here...?" He sounded pretty sad. Adam was watching in shock at how Liam was still alive and how the dragon can talk.

Liam: My new friend Adam here said there was a Merdragon down here, which turned out to be you, so we went looking. Also, you don't sound too well. What's the matter?

"I'm just feeling rather lonely, that's all..." He answered, making a loud sigh through his nose. This made some cavern dust fly off to the wall. "I usually spend my time here when I'm not needed."

Liam: That sucks...Maybe we could stay here with you for the night?

"I mean, if you want...That's up to you..." Jason replied nonchalantly. Adam was no longer surprised but actually sympathetic.

Liam: Okay. Well, do you mind staying here for the night, Adam?

"I wish I can, but I have work tomorrow morning at the Supermarket. Sorry buds." He says and pats Jason's head softly. "You're in safe hands buddy. I'll tell everyone not to fear you as you're my friend's friend. That's a mouthful..." He muttered the last part, waved goodbye and swam out of the cave.

Liam lied down in Jason's lap, and fell asleep.

Jason seemed to smile a bit at him for a second, and fell back to sleep.

The next morning...

The sunlight went through the cracks, hitting Liam right in the face.

Liam yawned and stretched.

Liam: Good morning, Jason.

He made a low groaning noise as he slowly got up. Liam realized he was on his side the entire time as he stretched his tail, arms, and wings. "Good morning...I didn't expect you to sleep here all day, considering the ground is a bit hard."

Liam: I barely felt the ground. It was nice to be here, but I gotta go to Mertopia now. My girlfriend Merna and I are gonna do something we've always wanted to do.

"Ohh, I'll leave you to that then..." Jason nods, having a glimmer of jealousy for a moment but hid it very well. "Have fun..."

Liam: Okay. I'll be back soon.

Liam swam out of the cave, to Mertopia. Once he got there, he met Merna in front of the Krusty Krab.

Merna: Hey, Liam. You ready for this?

Liam: Yes, I'm ready.

Merna: Alright. The vending machine for our special treat is behind Mershu's shop.

Liam and Merna swam off.

With Asonja...

He was watching some football (Not the American version, I will be specific for you :3) when Emma called him. He picked up the phone. "Ello?" He asked. "Hey Asonja, it's me. Where's Jason, have you seen him?" She asked. "I was planning to bring him over to shop because I saw him alone just yesterday."

"I dunno," He said. "I didn't see him run off." She sighed and responded, "You need to take care of him better, you know. He can't live a good life when everyone's scared of his appearance. I'm trying to help him fit in." Asonja nodded and replied, "I know I know. I'll call you when I see him."

He hangs up and goes back to watching football. Emma just sighs and walked inside the mall to search for him.

(It's Utopia time, so I'll be back at 20:00 PM.) (kk)

(Back!)

With Liam and Merna...

Merna: Liam, I am so excited for this. This will be the best moment in our relationship ever. We should treasure this memory.

Liam: I know how you feel. I won't EVER forget this day, my love.

Suddenly, the two of them heard banging.

Mershu's Shop Employee: Boy, why the hell are you banging on the condom machine with a baseball bat? You must pay for those! So stop what you are doing this instance or I will call the police!

???: No! I'm gonna kill you! I...will...kill...you!

Liam and Merna swam around the corner and saw Stephen Quire the Freakout Kid as a Merhog harassing the employee.

Liam: Oh, God! You're Stephen Quire!

Stephen: Yeah!

Liam: Dude, quit trying to steal those things!

Stephen: No! I'm gonna kill you! I...will...kill...you!

Liam screamed.

With Jason...

He heard the scream from his cave, and woke with a start. "Huh? Was that Liam's scream...? What's going on?" He swam to the exit of the cave, startling some people who were close to it. He looked to his left and saw Liam and Stephen. Though he didn't know who Stephen was, he growled and swam to them, his wings making him BLAZING fast.

He appeared behind Stephen, towering the shop like it was a dollhouse. He crossed his front arms, though he was meant to be four legged it looks a bit goofy. Still, with his height and appearance, he looked menacing. He was silent, though Liam knew he could speak.

Stephen: OH MY FREAKING GOD!

Stephen swam away as fast as he could.

Announcer: Uh...okay? Stephen just pussied out and swam at the sight of Jason. Lollerskates. XD

After Stephen freaked out and swam, the employee thanked Jason and gave Liam and Merna free condoms. Liam and Merna then went to the palace for their special stuff. You do know what's going to happen now, right? Don't worry, you won't see a thing. XD

(Though I wanted to but for the sake of this rp being "public", not gonna happen XD)

2 hours later, back on land...

Liam entered Asonja's apartment.

Liam: Cheers, Asonja. I feel like a real man.

"Heheh, don't sweat it." Asonja smirked a bit, chuckling. "It does get tiring after a while but trust me, every minute was worth it. Here, on me." He hands him a Soda, most likely Cheerwine: It's Asonja's favorite drink.

Liam: Thanks.

Liam started drinking it.

It tasted a lot like Cherries, and it had this taste of tranquility. (I might be gone for a while, as I'll be working out in my own creative way. Not that I need it anyway as I'm skinny as all balls x3. Anyway, If I'm not here when you have to leave, I'll be waiting tomorrow. Cya till then!)

(Okay, bye.) (I'm back, are you still here?)

(Sorry, went to bed early.)

Liam: This stuff is delicious. Where do you get it?

"From the store." Asonja shrugged. "It's got plenty of them." (I'm going to be getting ready for some company coming over, so I may not be able to edit today)

(Shit...)

Liam: Alright. Well, do you have a car?

He looked a bit tense. "Well...I mean I do but I found out that I was severely motion sick. I barely drive it anymore for that reason."

Liam: Well, my dad gave me driving lessons, so maybe I can drive instead.

He shakes his head. "I mean, on anything. Even if you're driving, I WILL puke and get dizzy."

Liam sighed.

Liam: Then what should we do?

"Walk to the store. It's only 5 minutes away from here by car." Asonja stated. "I don't go there because it's quite the workout and I hate working out."

Liam: *inside his head* Because you're such an emo, just like that Shadow the Hedgehog... *to Asonja* Okay, then I'll go get the drinks myself.

Liam grabbed a grocery bag and left for the store.

Just like Asonja said, it was quite the walk. It was actually 5 minutes of jogging to the store.

Liam bought the drinks and then walked back to Asonja's apartment.

Liam: Alright, I'm back with the drinks.

"Thanks dude. Just put them in the fridge, it's over to your right." Asonja pointed. Merbian Football was playing in the background.

Liam put the drinks in the fridge, then looked at the tv.

Liam: Cool, Merbian Football. By the way, tonight, at 20:30 PM, a new season of Mobian Idol is starting. Wanna watch it with me?

"Sure." He shrugged.

Liam: Good. Can't wait.

Meanwhile, with Emma...

She was finishing up her trip to the mall with some gifts for Asonja and Liam. It wasn't that much, but it was a rough trip to get back. She went into Asonja's car (Wont be telling you what it is yet :3) and drove off back to the apartment.

Later, Asonja and Liam heard the sound of a car parking outside. It sounded like a rather loud and powerful car. And when it was turned off, it was silent.

Liam: A car just parked outside. Must be Emma.

"Yeah. She took my car." Asonja said. "I told her she can have it."

Liam: Ah, I see.

She walked in and handed Liam and Asonja little presents. "Hiya boys! I thought you guys would like these. I found them in the mall." (It can be whatever .3.)

Liam: Thanks.

Liam opened his present. (It can be whatever you want, is what I meant by that.) (Oh.)

There was a black cap in the box.

Liam: Cool! A black cap!

Liam immediately put it on.

What do you think? Does this look good on me?

Emma giggled and Asonja nodded. Emma says "It was on sale. It's authentic and I fought for it! Hehe!" This made Liam wonder if Emma is very brutal when fighting. This was a hanging question to ask for a later time.

Asonja opened his present and it was old Gameboy Advance SP. "Oh wow...I remember playing on this thing for ages when I was little. I lost it months ago and I thought I'd never get it back. Luckily I kept the cartridges for it. Thank you Emma for getting me this, it means a lot to me."

Emma smiled and nodded. "Anything for my boo~" She hugged him and kissed him on the lips.

Liam: *inside his head* I wonder if Emma's very brutal when fighting...I bet she's got some buttkick attitude and fighting skills, like Julie-Su.

Emma pulled back and went to his bedroom, closing the door behind her. Asonja was blushing and smiling a bit. "Heh...she always knows how to make me happy. Dunno how."

Liam: She certainly does.

Later that night, 20:30 PM...

Liam, Emma and Asonja were watching Mobian Idol.

Liam: Okay, let's do it!

Host (heard over tv): Season 15 of Mobian Idol, folks! Mobius is gonna be ours, sea to shining sea. And we're gonna be looking for the next new Idol for the 15th time. We'll be doing this from the Sonic the Hedgehog Hotel in Station Square. Here come the judges: Simon Cowell (In Mobian cow form. XD), Sonic the Hedgehog, human producer Def Big and Patrick the Eagle.

Liam: This is gonna be awesome!

"I've never watched this before." Asonja states. "What's so important about it?" (Sorry, preparing for visitors.)

(And I went to bed around 0:30 AM.)

Liam: Well, I got a surprise for you guys which I will tell you about once this is over.

Asonja nods. "Cool. What is it?" Emma was still watching TV, but was listening too (Sorry, I'm gonna be VERY busy for a few days as I'm going to be forced to be socializing and playing with my cousins. Which also means going outside away from my computer for hours on end....)

(Man, that sucks...Well, I'll be seeing you after a few days then...)

Liam: I'm going to audition for Mobian Idol tomorrow!

Emma gulped her Coca-Cola harshly. "Tomorrow!? You cannot be serious!" Emma said. Asonja was falling asleep and Emma had to slap him.

Liam: Yes, I'm serious. Merna's even coming over to the land using magic pants to be with me during my audition. I've been practicing a lot, and now it's finally time to show that I can sing. This is gonna be so awesome. :D

Emma smiled and patted his head. "You'll do great!" Asonja nodded, yawning a bit as he looked highly fatigued.

Liam blushed and smiled.

Liam: Thank you.

The next day...

Liam, Emma, Asonja and Merna, who was wearing magic pants to have legs were at the Sonic the Hedgehog Hotel for Liam's audition for Mobian Idol.

Liam: This is so exciting! Isn't this exciting? I'm gonna do great!

Merna: I'm sure you will, sweetie. :D

Liam: Yep. :D

"What'll you be doing?" Emma asked. Asonja just laid down in the bed, snoring quietly.

(They're only there for a bunch of hours, but okay. XD)

Liam: I'm gonna sing Who's Loving You by Michael Jackson. I really like the song, and that's why I'm doing it today.

"Alright. I was just curious" Emma states. Asonja's probably not going to be watching since he's sleeping for a long time. (I was listing my many fears, sorry.)

(It's alright.)

After a few hours of waiting, Liam was called up to the audition room.

Liam: Here I go. Wish me luck, guys.

Merna: Will do!

Emma and Asonja nodded, giving thumbs up. (I should be sleeping right about now ;-;. In like 10 minutes XD)

(And I gotta go to school soon. XD)

(And you're probably home by now x3)

Liam sat in the waiting room with a bunch of other auditants. Once it was his turn, he walked into the judges' room. At the judges table, the judges, Simon Cowell, Sonic the Hedgehog, Def Big, a human, and Patrick the Eagle were sitting. They looked as Liam walked into the room.

Patrick: *whispers to Simon* I'm a little worried about this...

Simon: *whispers back* Yeah, me too...

Sonic: Hi, how are you?

Liam: I'm fine.

Sonic: What's your name, and how old are you?

Liam: I'm Liam, I'm 8 years old and I hope I can break through as a singer here.

Simon: So, what are you gonna sing?

Liam: Who's Loving You by Michael Jackson.

Simon: Okay, good luck.

Liam: Thanks.

Liam started singing, and it sounded a bit wrong.

Simon: Okay, stop.

Liam: Okay...

Simon: That came out completely wrong.

Liam: :C

Simon: What else do you sing, apart from that?

Liam: At Last by Etta James.

Simon: Do you want to give that a go?

Liam: Okay.

Liam started singing At Last, and this time, it sounds perfect.

Def Big: For shizzle, ma nizzle! This sounds good!

Patrick: I know, right?

Simon smiled at Liam's singing this time. After Liam was finished, the judges clapped for him.

Simon: This is how one song can change your life.

Liam: :D

Simon: You're gonna have a very special future, young man.

Liam: Thank you.

Sonic: You know, Simon doesn't ask every contestant to sing something else, so you're very lucky. You definitely have something to bring, like: Hello, people. This is what I do, and I'm gonna do it good.

Liam: Thank you.

Def Big: You got a good-natured personality and a pretty nice voice. We get quite some contestants with an attitude, but you, you don't have one. Like, at all. That's what I like the most about you.

Liam: Thank you.

Patrick: Liam, I barely know what to say. You're such a special kid, such a special performance. Great job.

Sonic: Well, shall we all give our word together?

Simon: Alright.

All Judges: Yes!

Simon handed Liam a golden ticket.

Liam: Thank you, sir!

Simon: You're welcome. We'll see you in the next round.

Liam walked out the room.

Liam: I did it!

The auditants sitting in the waiting room were clapping. Liam then ran downstairs to his friends.

Liam: I got a golden ticket from Simon Cowell himself!

Merna: Congratulations!

Liam and Merna kissed.

Emma was smiling too. "Eee! Great job!" Strangely, Asonja wasn't around.

Liam: Uh, where's Asonja?

Emma noticed he was gone too. "I dunno...he was just here a second ago..."

Liam: Let's go look for him.

Merna nodded and she and Liam walked out the building.

Meanwhile, with Asonja...

He was walking alone in the streets with his hood up and hands in his pockets. A small drizzle was occurring while a major storm was on its way. He was muttering insults, possibly to himself.

With Liam and co...

Liam, Merna and Emma were walking through the streets, looking for Asonja.

Liam: Asonja? Where are you?

Emma caught sight of Asonja and ran to him. "Asonja! Where are you going!? You just missed Liam's-"

She suddenly stopped talking as Asonja hit a wall with his fist, making a growling noise. Everyone fell silent and he turned to Emma. "Why is it always him and not me?!" Asonja shouted, trying not to raise his voice too much to refrain from crying.

"It's always him that gets the attention because he does greater things than I can! Why is it him and not me?!" He continued. Emma decided to fight back. "Because you don't try! You refuse to try because you're too much of a coward!" She was backing Asonja like she was a dog and he was the sheep

"You second-guess yourself, you doubt your abilities too much, AND YOU DON'T GIVE YOURSELF ANY CREDIT!" She slaps him across the face, making him stop, and look off to the right. She bursts into tears but still continues regardless.

"Since when was this about you...?! Tell me! Why do you want the attention from other people? You have us!" She said.

"Liam is more talented than I am because he knows his limits. My limits are very low, and I know I do not have any skill that-" Emma caught him off. "No, stop. You're doubting yourself again! We're going to find out what you're good at whether you want to try or not! Lets go!" She angrily takes Asonja's arm and drags him back home. He struggles to get out. (Gtg now, Be back at noon my time XD)

Liam: Well, that was dramatic.

Merna: That did NOT go as expected.

Liam: Let's just leave them alone for a while.

Merna: Alright.

Suddenly, Liam felt someone tugging his leg. He turned around and saw a small hedgehog who looked like Sonic and a small chipmunk who looked like Sally.

???: Hello, Mr. Liam.

Liam: Well, hello. You look a mighty lot like Sonic and Sally.

???: That's because we're their children. We came from the future, like you. My name's Sonia.

???: And my name's Manik. (If you have read Mobius: X Years Later you'll understand this.)

Liam: Okay. Can I help you with something?

Sonia: Yes. As you know, our father Sonic has been dating Amy Rose in this timeline, while he should be dating Sally so that we will exist.

Liam: I understand that, but if Sonic loves Amy more, than there's nothing I can do about it. I'm not interfering with time to change someone's heart unless it's necessary.

Manik: But...But we really want to live and be a prince and princess and have Sonic's speed...

Liam: The prince and princess thing shouldn't be a problem, because Sally is royalty, but the speed thing...I'm afraid you'll lose that. But don't worry, because you're special just the way you are. (That's something Mr. Rogers always said on his PBS show. Wish there were more kindhearted people like him.) And you'll still live. I mean, you two are half your mother's genes, and since she's dating Paul, you will live on as the children of Paul and Sally. Manik, you will just look different, as you will have your father's genes and become a rhino.

Manik then turned into a rhino.

Sonia: *gasp* Manik, you're a rhino!

Manik: Yay! I look cool!

Sonia: But that means we can't run as fast as Sonic anymore...

Liam: I'm sorry, kids...

Sonia and Manik burst into tears.

Liam: <:c

Merna: <:c

Liam was thinking.

Liam: Hmmm...You know, I might not be able to give you your speed back, but I know something that might cheer you up.

Liam whispered something into Merna's ear and she nodded. Merna's hands started to glow and she placed them on Sonia and Manik's chests. The two kids started to glow as they stopped crying.

Sonia: What did you do to us?

Merna: I gave you the ability to breathe underwater and other cool water-related powers. Now you do have some powers.

Manik: Yay! Thank you!

Sonia and Manik hugged Merna legs and then they hugged Liam.

Sonia: Thank you, Mr. Liam! And thank you too, Mrs. Merna!

Liam: You're welcome.

Merna: We were happy to help you.

Sonia: We're going back to our own timeline now. Bye!

Manik: Bye!

Liam and Merna: Bye!

Sonia pressed her time watch and she and Manik beamed back to their own timeline.

Liam: If they're happy, then I'm happy too.

Merna: Yeah.

With Asonja and Emma...

(Sorry I'm late, I slept REALLY really late) Emma pushed Asonja to his apartment couch and sat next to him.

"Alright Asonja here's the deal" Emma says sternly. "You've been nothing but a stubborn brat lately so what I'm going to do is...tell you a little secret. It's about this legend on a mountain or something not far from here that leads to an underground world. You're on your own from there."

Asonja looked confused. "Hold up, how will this help me with my issue?" Emma didn't answer his question entirely, picking him up like HE was the bride. "Relax! It'll help, I know it will."

After about 2 minutes of walking, they reached the top of a hill, a cave that lead inside of it. He let go of him and pushed him in lightly. "It shouldn't take you long to get out. It's sense of survival, your own road to choose, and your own confidence. Nobody has ever come out of there alive, and if you do, I will tell the judges at that place Liam won at so you too can get yourself a reward. Sound good?"

"Uhh..." Asonja said as he was walking backwards, but then tripped and screamed as he fell in the REALLY huge hole. Emma screamed back, "Good luck! I believe in you, don't you forget it!"

She turned away and went back down the mountain, seeming to have a look of regret, but shook it off and joined back with Liam and Merna. "Hey guys. Asonja will be gone for a little bit, just to let you know."

(It's alright.)

Liam: Alright. So, feel like going for an undersea swim?

Merna: I'm in.

Emma nods. "I'm in for it too!" She smiled and followed everyone to the beach.

Meanwhile with Asonja...

He stood there still falling, crossing his arms. "Alright, this fall is getting boring now..." He told himself, until finally he hit a bed of flowers, yellow flowers from the looks of it. They cushioned his fall so much, he felt like he didn't even hit the ground.

He got up and looked around, even looking up at the hole he just fell from. "Good god...this is going to take longer than I thought..." He mutters. He tried climbing, but failed at that. He fell to the ground again, the bed of flowers catching him. He sighed and got back up.

"I'm gonna be stuck down here forever...this won't ever work..." He sighs and finds a route to take. He goes through there, seeing a temple-like door to his left. He enters, and what showed in front of him was a single flower, with a smile on its face......wait, a smile?

Meanwhile in Mertopia...

(Let me guess, he's in the Mushroom Kingdom. XD)

Liam, Merna and Emma are in their Merbian forms at the Mertopian Palace. Merna's friends are there, rubbing Emma's baby filled belly and congratulating her. Liam just sat there, bored.

Merna: I understand you're bored by these girl things, Liam. If you want to, you can go explore by yourself.

Liam: Okay. Will do.

Liam grabbed his Mertopian Sword and swam out of the palace.

Back with Asonja...

(Not even remotely close >:3)

Asonja was now struggling to stay up as the flower was shooting "bullets" at him, bringing him almost to near death. Suddenly, he was surrounded by them and the flower made a cackling laugh. Then suddenly a flame shot the evil flower away and Asonja was carried back up to his feet by possibly a woman with a purple robe with a white symbol in the center.

"Do not be afraid, child. I will guide you through this place and make sure you do not get hurt." She said, as he lead him to a massive area with stairs from both sides leading up to a massive temple door. The moment he looked up at them, he felt something strange, like he was given a warm hug by all of his friends, telling him to never give up, whatever what was in front of him.

...But something made him shift that feeling to the side, moving back to his regular feeling. He didn't want this feeling anymore, as it brought back painful memories for him: Betrayal, Denial, Anger, Depression, Guilt, Shame. Instead of this making him feel confident, all he felt was Grief. (welp, this took a dark turn.)

(No shit.)

Suddenly, another person in a robe appeared. This time, it was a man in a brown robe with a heart in the center.

???: Don't worry, child. We won't hurt you. You will survive and prove yourself you're a hero. We will help you with that.

Asonja grunted and turned away. The woman said "Yes. With our help, you can realize you're not that useless. Please follow us. It's very dangerous to walk here alone."

Asonja turned back, a little bit worried but went up the stairs and followed them. The woman lead him through some dangerous puzzles that this place was surrounded in. Then, came the first test. He was faced with a training dummy.

The man mumbles a few magic words and two dual katana's appeared in his hands. He gave them to Asonja.

???: You will need these in your quest to become a warrior. We will hand you some more weapons on your way. Use these katana's to defeat this training dummy.

"W-well..." The woman butted in. "I wouldn't let him be so violent! It's not so bad down here...Just...maybe talk to the dummy to avoid, you know, conflict?" She innocently smiled.

Asonja looked at the katanas for a second, but gripped them anyway. But, they were a bit too heavy for him, since he was so scrawny. The woman helped him up a bit. "Go ahead and do what you think is right, okay child?" She whispered before backing up to the other man to watch.

Asonja poked the dummy with one of the katanas, seeming unimpressed. "Are you serious...? It's not even alive for all I know..." He said.

???: Just do something with it. We're not going anywhere until you pass your first test.

"Argh fine..." He looked at the dummy and glared at it. "Uhh...hello there..?"

The dummy fell over to the side. The woman clapped her hands. "Great job! That wasn't so hard was it?"

Asonja still looked unimpressed. "Well the dummy just fell over so can I just...pick it back up or something?" The woman shook her head. "You don't have to, I can fix that later. For now, lets continue going shall we?" She smiled warmly at him and walked to the left to a different part of the area. Asonja hesitatingly followed, katanas still with him.

The man raised his hand, and trapped Asonja in a cage of darkness.

???: Your second test is to test your intelligence. You are trapped in this cage of darkness, and you have to think of a way to escape. Remember: Use your head.

"Are you joking?!" Asonja yelled in the cage. "I cant even freakin' see and I'm scared of the dark!" He pointed out, looking around and bumping into the walls. He was freaking out too much to even start using it. The woman worriedly watched.

The man sighed and snapped his fingers. The cage became lighter.

???: That should make things a bit easier.

"This...still really isn't helping me out here..." Asonja pointed out, looking around. The woman in the purple robe still looked worried, as if Asonja was doomed from the start.

???: *inside his head* This might be the first time someone we cannot help entered our training world... *to Asonja* You're not using your head. Look around for something that might help.

"I'm trying I don't see anything!" He continued to looked around. He literally couldn't see anything that would be of use to him.

Suddenly, Asonja saw a bow with 10 arrows within his physical range. He also saw a stone button with the man's face on it.

"Oh god are you kidding me? I have to shoot arrows?" He groaned a picked up the bow. He tried adjusting the arrow to the bow so that he could pull it back, but he was screwing it up so badly, it was almost disappointing. He probably never learned how to do something like this.

The man looked really irritated at this.

???: *whispers to his female colleague* This kid is a liability...Why did he enter our training world, anyway...?

"I'm not sure..." She replied. "He looks like he has so much potential but he's clouded with Grief. At least, that's my theory..."

???: Well, we need something to get rid of that Grief. He can't focus with all that Grief on his mind.

She nods in agreement. "I can help him with that. But for now, let him figure out what to do."

As this was going on, he was still trying to equip the bow and put the arrow in. He growled and put them on the ground. "I can't do it, this is freakin' impossible.."

???: You're too negative. Try using positive vibes.

He was quietly for a moment. The man could tell he was trying but he was still stubborn. "How would you know that would work? I'd rather find a different way around this."

The man walked up to Asonja and slapped him in the face.

???: Why, pussy, aren't you the cunning emo.

(I'm going to bed now. It's been past midnight in The Netherlands and I gotta go to recreation again tomorrow. Bye!)

(Alrighty. Good luck!) The woman jumped a bit at his action toward Asonja. He just growled and rubbed his face. "I already got slapped twice today, I seriously don't need anymore of this shit."

???: Then stop being such a god damn emo and TRY to use that bow right!

"I've never used it before, do you expect me to get good at something in 5 seconds?!" He growled a bit.

???: Alright, that's it, I'm done! You'll never reach anything in life because you're too negative! Goodbye!

The man snapped his fingers and Asonja was beamed back to Mobius.

???: That kid's so fucking negative...

"You should've at least given him a chance! I know he's hard to penetrate because of his stubbornness, but he was put down here for a reason!" The woman protested.

???: Fine, I'll give him another chance. Back down here!

The man clapped his hands and Asonja appeared in the world again.

Asonja was blinking a few times. "Oh uh...okay. Guess no pizza for me tonight." He sighed.

???: Listen, I'm giving you another chance, so don't fuck it up. Also, I'm giving you a different second test.

The man snapped his fingers and a body of water appeared. He then turned Asonja into a fish and he put Asonja in the water.

???: Asonja, you're a fish in a body of water filled with bigger fish trying to eat you. Find a way to defend yourself against them.

Asonja was, of course, a black minnow. All he did was swim away from the bigger fish. The woman watched worriedly, like always.

Asonja saw some sticks lying on the bottom of the body of water. Maybe he could stick them in the bigger fishes' mouths to prevent them from eating him.

He tried picking them up but he was probably a bit too small for the sticks. He did whack a big fish in the face, which was a start. Not what was planned, but it still worked.

???: Not exactly what I had in mind, but okay. It worked, so it's a start.

Eventually he stuck the sticks in the mouths. Took longer than expected because of his lack of muscles, but he still did it.

The man smiled and he turned Asonja back to normal.

???: Great job. You passed your second test. On to the third one. My main woman here can think up the next one.

The three of them walked to the next area.

Asonja seemed unimpressed that he passed. Or that was just how he always looked. The woman lead them to an area where there were spikes everywhere.

"Oh dear...I think this one may be a bit too dangerous for him...Here, take my hand." She held out her hand to him. He took it, hesitantly. She then lead him through the spikes by going a certain path.

After that, she let go of him. "Alright...here is the third test. I would like to test your independence by leaving you in the room by yourself. He will make things a bit interesting for you. I apologize for this." She looked down and then vanished. The room closed off, leaving Asonja in a dim room.

???: I will leave you by yourself to fight these shadow monsters. Use your katana's to fight them.

The man snapped his fingers and a bunch of shadow monsters, similar to the Heartless from Kingdom Hearts appeared. The man then vanished.

(Had to look up what those were because I never played Kingdom Hearts before. Dont murder me plz ;-;) Asonja got the katanas and back up a bit. He was highly unfamiliar with fighting when he's not in the mood for it.

(It's okay. I never played those games either, but I have looked up playthroughs of them before. Therefore, I have a little knowledge of them.)

The monsters jumped out at Asonja to attack him.

(Alright cool) He blocked, and dodged their attacks. That's all he did, just block and dodge.

Eventually, the monsters got tired of Asonja blocking and dodging their attacks and vanished. The man then reappeared in the room.

???: You got rid of 'em? I know you just kept blocking and dodging, but I see something in that fighting style of yours, so I'm kind enough to let you pass for now. But remember: You also need to learn to attack, so I'm leaving you here for another round. Good luck.

The man vanished again and more monsters appeared. Asonja really needs to learn to attack now.

He sighed and gripped the katanas this time. He dashed at one of them and horizontally sliced. However, his attack posture was very poor, as he wasn't focused enough; he was letting his instincts get to him, making him feel afraid.

The monster he attacked died anyway. This should give Asonja some more confidence.

It didn't give him much, but it was enough to make him keep going. He went to the next monster, slicing once with his right, and slicing another with his left.

The monsters Asonja sliced died. This went on until all monsters were gone. The man appeared again after that.

???: Alright, you did it. This time, you passed for real. I'll go get my main woman.

The man vanished again and reappeared with the woman.

She looked up from reading her book. "Oh, how goes the child?" She asked.

???: I left him with enemies to fight, and he beat them all, so I was kind enough to let him pass.

She smiled a bit. "Great. Now we know that he's not just stubborn, but afraid to get out of his comfort zone. I can analyze him rather quickly."

???: Alright. We just need to get him out of his comfort zone then. But first, let me give you some new weapons.

The man mumbled some words and two pistols appeared in his hands. He gave them to Asonja.

???: Here. These pistols will serve as your secondary weapons. Now you're just like Deadpool and Edward Kenway from Assasin's Creed 4. Let's move on to the next area.

The three of them walked to a Colosseum where a bunch of people like the man and woman were the audience. The man and woman walked up some stairs and sat down on two thrones. The man grabbed a microphone.

???: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Shadow Colloseum! Today's challenger will be What's-his-name! He will be fighting various shadow monsters in here to prove his strength and potential! First off, he'll be battling these Shadow Grunts! Let's go!

Suddenly, the gates of the Colosseum closed and the Shadow Grunts rose from the ground. They were holding wooden hammers which they were gonna use to attack Asonja.

???: Remember, kid, you can use both your katana's and pistols now. You can switch between the weapons during battle if you want to. Anyways, good luck.

The Shadow Grunts ran at Asonja to attack him.

"Well, this isn't good...!" He muttered to himself and dodged their attacks and went into the air. He switched to his pistols and tried shooting at them. The recoil was a bit unsettling for him as he missed most of the time with them.

Fortunately, he managed to hit some of the Grunts with his pistols, causing the Grunts to die.

He landed on the ground, and almost struggled to get up. He didn't know how he jumped so high.

???: Not sure if I should help him or not...I'm sure he'll be fine.

He managed to get up completely and he put the pistols away.

The remaining Shadow Grunts ran at Asonja with their hammers, ready to whack Asonja.

He takes the katanas and blocks the attacks as much as he could. He pushed back and threw the katanas at their chests.

The Grunts died after Asonja did that. All Grunts were dead after that.

???: Not bad, kid. Let's see if you can survive the next round.

Meanwhile, with Liam, Emma and Merna...

Liam has come back from his solo swim. He entered the palace and saw Merna talking with her friends and Emma talking to Triton.

Triton: I'm so happy for you and Asonja, Emma. He's so lucky to have such a lovely lady like you.

Emma giggled. "Yeah, thank you. He can be a nuisance sometimes but I still love him regardless." She smiled and rubbed her stomach. "I can actually feel them kicking now. It shouldn't be long before Asonja becomes a father!" She said in joy.

(The pregnancy process goes this fast? Fuck logic. XD) (Who needs it? *Flies away via 0 gravity* Seeya suckers (-[]-[]) (Exactly.)

Liam: I'm really happy for you guys too.

Triton: Oh, hey, Liam. Emma and I were just discussing about Emma's pregnancy.

"Yup!" Emma smiled. "So, how was your little adventure?"

Liam: It was really fun. I met a lot of cool Merbians during my swim. We swam together and we explored caverns together. You really should go on a solo swim sometimes, Em. You get a lot of fun experience out of it.

"Yeah, maybe. But I'm not really much of a fan of "meeting new people". Things happen when I do." Emma laughed a bit. "But I'll give it a try later. I just hope that Asonja's doing okay."

Liam: I hope so too.

Back with Asonja...

In the Shadow Colloseum, the next round of Shadow Monsters, the Shadow Soldiers appeared. They were holding swords and were ready to butcher Asonja.

???: *to his female colleague* I'm actually a bit worried about this one.

"Me too..." She replied worriedly. I'm afraid that one of us should help when he really needs it..."

???: Leave that to me. After all, I'm the one with a bazooka.

"You always rub that in..." She rolled her eyes, but giggled nonetheless.

Asonja was backing up against the wall with the Shadow Soldiers gaining up on him. He couldn't dodge, and he couldn't block for very long. He had no way of knowing where the openings are.

The man got out his bazooka and blew up the Shadow Soldiers.

???: Those guys were a bit too hard for you. Let's start with something easier.

A group of Elite Grunts with Super Hammers appeared from the ground. They were ready to beat Asonja into the ground.

He just sighs and arms his katanas again. He was already tired of fighting for right now. There was no sign of excitement or determination at all. There was only a hint of fear. He tightened his grip on his katanas (Sorry if I'm replying late, I'm playing some Smash on my 3ds)

(And I was playing Papa's Bakeria. Also, I'm going to bed, because it's 1 AM in The Netherlands and I'm tired. Cya real soon!)

(Cya! I'll probably be here at like 2 AM in my time like always and then leave you right after xD)

The Elite Grunts attacked Asonja with their Super Hammers, smacking him. Soon, there was an opening for Asonja so he could attack.

Once he recovered from the attack, his took the guns and shot the Grunts in their open spots. After that he collapsed, trying to catch his breath.

???: Time out!

The Elite Grunts vanished and the man went down to Asonja. He proceeded to hand him some water.

???: Here you go, kid. something to drink.

He takes it and drinks the whole thing in one sitting. "Argh...thanks for that...I have extremely low stamina..."

???: Just train that by hitting the gym at least once a week. Advice from The Master. Now get back onto the field and show these cocksuckers what you're made of!

The Master teleported back to his throne and sat down on it.

Master: Let's get back to the game!

The Elite Grunts came back and they ran at Asonja.

He felt something in his chest for a moment, giving him a quick energy boost. He rushed to the Grunts, dodged below them and shot up to their heads, killing them both. He gets up and puts the guns back to his sides.

(I'm gonna be leaving to get some fireworks for tomorrow or something. I'll try to be back asap. I'm being dragged here, even though I'm Anti-patriotic.)

(Kk. Sorry if I'm responding frequently, I'm playing Papa's Bakeria again.)

The Master smiles at the sight of this.

Master: If he was able to kick the asses of these Elite Grunts, then surely he can beat the Shadow Soldiers now.

The Shadow Soldiers appeared, pointing their swords at Asonja. The entire Colosseum was filled with excitement at this moment. The Soldiers ran at Asonja, ready to attack him.

He replaced his guns with his swords and blocked their attacks with both of his swords. He moved back, and got in position for something. A black aura started to erupt from him and he jumped forward, spinning into a ball with both blades pointing opposite directions like a circular saw.

The Shadow Soldiers gulped and tried to run, but were all killed by Asonja's attack.

Master: Good job, kid. Are you ready for a real challenge? Bring out the big boy!

A big Shadow Dragon entered the colloseum. He was ready to fight Asonja.

Asonja looked a bit concerned about this; His friend was a dragon and seeing one in front of him was kind of...unsettling. He put his sword away and just walked up to the dragon normally.

Master: ...What is he doing?

Shadow Dragon: ...

He stopped in front of the dragon and put his hand out to it. "Hey...I'm not gonna hurt ya okay? Can you trust me? I have a dragon friend at home who could really love the company."

Shadow Dragon: Sure. My name's Roman, by the way.

Roman shook Asonja's hand and shrunk down to his size.

Master: Did you expect that, folks? I certainly didn't. This kid has proved himself to be confident enough of his own skills. so he has passed his final test! Congratulations, whatever your name is!

Everyone in the colloseum cheered for Asonja as confetti rained down on him and Roman.

He blinked a few times and looked at himself for a moment. "Is...this was victory feels like?" He muttered to himself.

(Sorry, I'm playing Papa's Bakeria AGAIN. Those Papa Louie games are really addicting.)

The Master and his female colleague teleported over to Asonja.

Master: Great job, kid. You proved yourself to be a real hero, and therefore, you get this golden suit of armor.

The Master snapped his fingers and a golden suit of armor appeared on Asonja.

Master: You can also keep Roman, because you two really have a special bond. On your way now, hero!

The Master snapped his fingers and Asonja and Roman beamed back to Mobius.

Master: *to his female colleague* He was a really nice guy, don't you think?

She nodded. "Yes. He had so much potential and I'm glad he gets to see it for himself. There's a lot more to him that I fear we havent scratched the surface of yet which makes him more interesting."

Master: Yeah. Maybe we'll meet him again someday.

Back on Mobius...

Asonja and Roman appeared on top of the mountain where the entrance to the world is.

Roman: So is this Mobius, huh? It's pretty neat here. You up for Chinese (Food, not people. XD)?

"I've never really eaten Chinese food before." Asonja stated. "I usually eat like pizza or something."

Roman: Well, I've never eaten pizza before. Up for pizza then?

"Sure. You'll like pepporoni since it's meat. Also this armor is heavy..." Asonja says.

Roman: Let's go to your house to take off the armor first, then let's order pizza.

Meanwhile, in Mertopia with Liam and Emma...

Liam and Emma were getting ready to leave. Merna hugged Emma.

Merna: See you guys real soon. And Liam, you and Asonja better take care of Emma's baby, okay?

Liam: Will do.

Liam smiled and rubbed Emma's belly.

Emma giggled. "We'll take good care of them. I'm sure they'll be adorable." She said and swam up to the surface.

Liam kissed Merna and then swam after Emma. Once they got to the beach, Liam took off his necklace, regained his legs and stood up.

Liam: I wonder how Asonja is doing.

Emma did the same and stretched her legs out a bit. "He must be doing fine. Once he feels victory, he'll always want to come back."

Liam nodded and he and Emma went to Asonja's apartment. When they walked through the door, they saw Asonja and Roman playing Call of Duty: Black Ops III while enjoying some pizza.

Roman: Oh, welcome, folks. Door's open, I guess.

Liam: Hey, who are you?

Roman: I'm Roman the Shadow Dragon. I'm this kid's new friend.

Liam: Cool, another dragon! You have some pretty cool friends, Asonja.

Roman: *looks at Asonja* Asonja, huh? Nice name.

"Thanks." Asonja said. He wasnt even playing the game but just watching. He wasnt a big fan of shooting games especially the new ones. "This is Liam and that is my lovely girlfriend Emma." Emma waved with a smile.

"I see your trip to the Underground Training Facility went well." Emma says, sitting between the two of them.

"Yeah, it was after a while." He answered. "When I had to fight Roman however, I just kind of stopped altogether. I would never hurt a dragon for any reason ever. They're always my friends." He patted Roman on his head.

Roman smiled.

Roman: If you're such a dragon lover, just wait 'til you have seen my friend Toothless from How To Train Your Dragon. He's got a cuteness overload.

Liam: You know it! I actually have Toothless poster in my room back in the future.

(One thing I don't get is that they call him Toothless, despite him having teeth. XD)

(When they first saw him, he had no teeth thus giving him the name. But as he grew older, he grew teeth. So basically he was like a...premature teenager I guess?) (That explains a lot.)

"I already know what he looks like. He's adorable." Asonja said. Liam noticed some shining armor that was hung up in Asonja's room.

Liam: That's some buttkick armor you got there, Asonja. Did you get that from the Underground Training Facility?

"Yeah, I did. It's very heavy though." Asonja said.

Roman: You'll get used to that if you get some more muscle. Remember what The Master said? Train your stamina at the gym each week. You should train your muscles there too.

"Well, yeah..." He said. "But I forget things very easily."

"No to worry Asonja." Emma said, patting his back. "We'll help remind you. Right?" She looked at Roman, smiling a bit.

Roman: Of course I'll help with that.

Liam: And so will I.

Emma and the boys gamed until late at night. In fact, it got so late that all of them fell asleep. The next morning, they wake up at 10:00 AM.

Liam: *yawns* Good morning, guys...

Roman: Man, we made it really late, did we...?

"Yeah..." Asonja groaned a bit, rubbing his head. "I didn't even eat my 3rd slice of pizza and that would've been a new record for my eating standards..." (Sorry unexpected brb)

(Kk. Happy Independence Day, by the way. I might not be American, like you, but it's still nice to celebrate and wish Americans a happy Independence Day.)

Liam: That's crazy...Emma, you here...?

(Oh yeah, thanks a bunch. I almost forgot that it was today. x3) "Yup...I'm here..." Emma says as she was lying down on the kitchen counter on her back. "Argh...I feel hungover though I drank no alcohol. The baby's safe, by the way."

Liam: Good.

(Let's have the baby be born now? :3) (If you want, sure.)

Suddenly, Emma's water broke.

(It's about bed time now, so I gotta go. See ya.)

(Alrighty, seeya)

Emma tensed a bit and rolled off the counter, landing on her feet. "Argh! Asonja they're coming!" Asonja got up and quickly went to her, holding her up.

"Guys, I'm heading to the hospital but I dont think we'll make it in time! It's 50 minutes away from here by walking and I can't drive..." Asonja sighed at that. "Roman, do you think you can fly us to the hospital?" He asked. "I know where it is and I'll let you know where to stop."

Roman: Sure, I can do that.

Liam: I'm tagging along with you guys.

Roman nodded, walked outside and grew to a bigger size. Liam locked the apartment door and got onto Roman's back. Once Asonja and Emma got on Roman took off.

(Judging from Emma's dialogue, you made it twins. I already kinda thought the thing out: It's one boy and one girl. The boy is a hedgehog, like Asonja, and the girl is an echidna, like Emma. Pretty good thinking, right? :3)

(Yup! Knew you'd get it at some point! :3)

Asonja was in the front, standing up a bit so that he could see and tell Roman where to go. He pointed and told Roman where to go as Liam kept Emma calm. She was freaking out a bit as it was so painful.

Liam: Don't worry, Em. Everything will be fine. We'll make it to the hospital in time.

"I hope so...!" Emma says, trying not to scream in pain so much.

(I made a new character, btw. Did you notice? :3)

(Not really. Where is it?)

Roman: Are we there yet?

(Never mind, saw her. Pretty nice character you made. Who draws those pictures? Do you do that yourself?)

(Yeah, via a program called Sonic FurryDoll Maker. It's useful when you don't have drawing talent xD)

"Should be...there!" Asonja pointed. "At the end of that block!"

(Cool. I should make some pictures of my FC's there.)

Roman nodded and landed in front of the hospital. Liam, Asonja and Emma got off Roman and he shrunk back down to his normal size. The boys then rushed Emma into the hospital. Two nurses came and they took Asonja and Emma to a room. Liam and Roman waited outside the room. To pass the time, Liam sung some of his songs to Roman.

About 1 hour later...
