Listen to it... just listen it. SERIOUSLY. It's epicosity is unimaginable.

No, I'm not Yuji Naka, Hartman or any of these guys so I don't own the characters; but I do share the crossover idea with a few million people...

Important: Seeing as there is a bit of a clusterf*ck (censored for younger audiences) of a plot, I'm thinking of making this story an introductory of the characters to each other as a basis for crossovers between only two of them. I f you agree just say so but I am seriously considering this. If you disagree also comment on it.

Vlad grunted as he was pinned to a tree by a very pissed Shadow. However he smiles and waves his hand. In an instant he became intagible, passing right through the tree and a very surprised Shadow's grasp.

"What the-"

An ectoblast shot by Vlad headed towards Shadow. He sidestepped the attack and charged his hand with chaos energy. Shadow grinned.

"Chaos Spear!" The spears made of chaos energy soared through the air and straight into Vlad. The latter smirked as he became intagible but soon screamed in pain when the attack hit him straight in the chest even thouh he was intagible. Vlad fell into the ground but quickly got up.

"That's impossible! I was intagible, how did this attack hit me?" He asked himself while he inspected his chest for any damage and found a nasty looking bruise. In less than a second Shadow charged towards him and performed an uppercut.

"You thought you could defeat me? Surely you must have had a dathwish, attacking the Ultimate Lifeform and thinking you could get away from me!" as Vlad fell onto the ground, Shadow jumped three meters into the air (For those using the other metric system, it's about nine feet), curled up into a ball and hurled towards the half ghost, "You are no match for me!"

Vlad's eyes cracked open and he growled in anger.

"Enough!"

He formed an ectoshield on which Shadow rebounded. The Ultimate Lifeform uncurled and landed on the ground in a crouching position, his eyes locked on Vlad Masters.

"Goody-two-shoes Vlad is gone! Prepare to be destroyed!"

And with that they both screamed in anger as they engaged in battle again.

"Wow. Usually I'm the one who gets Shadow so worked up."

Danny turned his head to see Sonic casually watching the fight, as both of them seemed to want to decapitate each other. Or mutiliate any part of the other's body in that matter. Judging from the Mobian's reaction, he seemed as this as a daily phenomenon. Danny on the other hand, not used to seeing his arch-enemy fight alien hedgehogs on an alien planet was dumbfounded. His expression revealed as much.

"So... is this normal for you?" Sonic asked.

Danny snapped out of his trance to see Sonic observing him, slighly worried.

"Huh?" 'Wow Danny. Intelligent. Very inteligent.' he thought to himself.

Oh. "Uhhhh..." Danny didn't know what to say. Reveal his ghost identity? Claim he was a distant twin of himself that got dragged here? 'That'll just be ridiculous' he thought to himself, reffering to his latter plan of action. All thngs considered, he didn't have many choices on what to do.

'Well... he only asked me if this was normal for me.'. After a dragged 'uh' Danny replied with a simple yes. Sonic visibly relaxed.

"Thank Chaos." he sighted with relief. "For a second there I thought I'd mutated you or somethin'. " Danny was going to respond with a remark, when suddenly an entagled mass of what was Shadow and Vlad Plasmius whippped past them, a few centimeters above their heads. The human instictively crouched while Sonic remained calm.

"Great! Now that my concience is at peace, how about we stop those two gentlemen from tearing themselves apart?" the hedgehog asked with a smirk plastered ont his face.

Not waiting for a response, especially one so obvious, he dashed off to where his friend/rival/it's a complicated relationship was locked in mortal combat with the middle aged, now featuring blue skin and red pupiless eyes, man. Those two dd not notice him, as they were trying to waste each other. Sonic looked behind him to see Danny approaching him. Good, cause if he managed to tackle one of them, the other would certaintly take the opportunity and attack ruthlessly.

"When?" Dany simply asked with anticipation of the happy variation.

"Well..." Sonic watched as Sonic delivered a kick to the ?human? only to be blocked. Then, Vlad spawned some sort of freakish pink glow and in a flash of light, each was trown to the sides of the make-believe arena. "Now!" he shouted and they both dashed towards the other two.

Sonic tackled Shadow to the ground, making sure his legs were out of comission, while Danny let out a battle cry and collided with his arch enemy, sending them head on to the nearest tree.

"What the-" cried a surprised Shadow.

"What is the meaning of this?" yelled an immobilised Vlad Masters.

On the other side of the field, Butler, Artemis, Holly, Foaly and Zak descended the small cliff, curious why the trees on the other side of the field decided to fall all of a sudden. They had concluded, from the lack of blood, that Sonic, Shadow, Danny, and Vlad Masters had not been killed off. Holly suggested that if whatever caused this mess was violent, the others might have took cover in the woods. Judging by the fight sounds coming from the forest, the beast might have caught up with them.

"I'm telling you, this is suicide. We need to come up with a battle plan." suggested Artemis for the fifth time. "If our hypothesis is correct, we might also put ourselves at risk, without being able to fight back." To him what they were about to do was suicide. Artemis had learnt from experience that, the best way to act was come up with a reasonable plan, even if it was full of holes, rather than just barge in like idiots and hope everything went okay. Battles were won with wits.

"Oh, so you just want to stand there and do nothing?" Zak respond, furious with his cousin. "They probably are in grave danger and we have to help them. Danny's your cousin too." he continued not liking how cold and calculating Artemis was. In some ways he reminded him of Francis, which didn't do much to improve his view towards him.

"Yes, like we would be any good in a fight. The only one capable of fighting is Butler, as I knowingly am in a very bad physical condition, Captain Shorts is injured -cue Holly yelling "For the last time I am fine!"-, Foaly is as bad as me -cue Foaly protesting "I've been jogging!"- and I hardly believe yo will be able to take on whatever caused this." the pale boy analysed. Artemis getting infuriated with the lack of reason Zak had. Being angry wasn't like him. It must be today's stress. Going to the US for a family visit, getting transported to an alien world with his cousins, Holly and Foaly appearing out of nowhere, find out that the only two people -hedgehogs- they knew would soon be goners... and his suit got ruined. Again.

He needed a break.

"You'd be surprised." Zak muttered as he reached out for his weapon, the Claw. However he didn't take it out as he didn't want the remaining of his cover to be blown, so he'd better back down, this time. "Alright then, genius, what's you plan?"

"Excellent question- What's our plan?" Artemis asked he others.

"If there is a beast there and the others are in danger, first we need to create a distraction;" Butler started saying " perhaps if one of us-"

Artemis interrupted him, deep in thought. "I agree with the distraction but sending one of us will be unwise-"

"I'll go." Zak said and ran off before any of them could refuse.

It took a few seconds before any of them could realise what just happened.

"Wait did he just-"

"After him!" The others ran to where Zak was, cursing in English, Gnomish and every other language available.

Only to find Zak looking just as shocked as them. Then they saw the scene in front of them which gave a very satisfactory answer to Zak's shock.

All in all, seeing two people -and that's loosely used- that looked like Danny and Vlad Masters in spandex suits, tackling and getting tackled by two anthropomorphic alien hedgehogs, was a very good reason to wonder whether you should visit a psychiatrist.

For a long moment, both groups stood in silence. Sonic, Shadow Danny and Vlad stood there, thinking how they could explain this. On the other hand, Zak, Artemis, Butler, Holly and Foaly couldn't find the correct way to respond. Finally Foaly spoke:

"Looks like our hypothesis was wrong mudboy." That triggered the others to react too.

"Get off me Faker," complained Shadow trying to free himself from Sonic's grasp, "or I'll Chaos Blast you into the next century."

"Only if you promise to be a good boy," Sonic retorted as Shadow growled in response.

"Daniel, I demand you unhand me at once." commanded Vlad Master. His hands glowed a dangerous ectoplasmic pink. "You know very well that I am more powerful than you."

…

At last, Zak expressed the second group's thoughts in one simple, clear question. "What the heck is going on?"

"So, you both are hybrids?"

"Yes."

"And you're half ghosts?"

"Pretty much."

Artemis rubbed his temples in frustration. So far nothing seemed to move on the reasonable levels reality he was accustomed too. Aliens at first and now ghosts. Next thing he knew, his other cousin would turn out to be some other mutant too.

They were still in the forest, specifically where Shadow and Vlad were fighting, catching their breath. It seemed to be about 12 o'clock and the surviving trees protected them by the sun's rays, creating a small meadow. Danny and Vlad, back in their human forms, were sitting in some fallen logs next to each other, Vlad with a condescending look on his face as Danny looked like he was busted, which was pretty much true. The others were placed on the other side

"We always suspected the existence of ghouls," muttered Foaly " but the thought of human-ghost hybrids never really crossed our minds as it was too far-fetched." He rubbed his goatee contemplating on the recent revelation. "Speaking of which, how did you become half-ghosts in he first place?"

"Well," Danny scratched his back nervously. Should he answer truthfully to that one? Vlad was obviously not going to say anything.

"I mean, both your parents are human," Foaly added.

"Yeah, well- hey how do you know about my parents?" Danny asked. So far he thought the centaur and the elf-looking girl were from a part of this world, randomly appearing along with everyone else. Suspicion rose up in his mind. So far he had guessed his cousin, Artemis was being civil to those two as he was, loosely put, with everyone else. But he did seem to know them well. He also knew, fro the conversation he had with his other cousin that there were more supernatural creatures on Earth than just ghosts... could those two be from Earth? If so, were they spying on him?

Artemis bit his lip. One wrong word from Foaly or them and the entire fairy word would be exposded. True he wasn't particularly worried about his two cousins, but for the billionaire who, from what he had found, was involved in a of of shady business.

"Being half ghosts gives a perfectly good explanation on how yp acquired your wealth Mr. Masters" Artemis said hoping to distract everyone from Danny's question. When he saw everyone's questioning gaze on him he mentally smiled as his plan worked.

"Does it now?" The middle aged man said in his perfectly calm, velvet voice. He gave Artemis a degrading look. "You are Artemis Fowl Junior, am I right? Of the Irish Fowl family?" he said in an accusing tone.

"Yes, you are correct," replied Artemis. He would just see what the old man wanted to say, maybe he would inadvertently reveal any plans against him. The Fowl family did have a lot of enemies.

"Well then I do not believe the heir of a family notorious about its criminal activities and illegal ventures could criticize me abut how I got my wealth ever since there are no solid evidence to prove that."

"My family is currently involved in perfectly legal activities." For the time being, his brain added. "What you are accusing us of is a thing of the past." If you exclude the disappearance of a few priceless works of art in private galleries but I made them available to public so it does not count as a crime.

"A rather recent past may I say so myself. Wasn't your father kidnapped by the Russian Mafia?" Artemis knuckles tightened. The man was in for a lot of humiliation.

"What about the robots that chased us?" asked Foaly wanting to steer the topic away.

"You're still not answering my question!" Danny accused the centaur.

"Are you actually from Earth?" asked Zak.

"If I may say so Mr Masters-"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa guys!" Sonic shouted making everyone silent " No need to get personal and attack its other. It's obvious there are a lot of questions about everyone but we got to get moving, kay?" As he saw some of them were ready to protest he added "We'll figure this out when we get to my place. It's about half an hour away and then we'll get some answers." Some of them sighted in relief while other grunted in frustration but nevertheless the group began to walk towards Sonic's house once again with many new questions demanding answers...
