(Undecided location) And Az was even more lost than usual. No one spoke her language, nothing was familiar, and she was beginning to get irritated by these new developpments. There were so many things she didn't recognize. She bared her teeth, hands on the hilt of her scimitars, and continued to walk around aimlessly.

A very irritated koala marched through the crowded sidewalks of the city of Westopolis. Barby was once again lost, in her own home...even though she doesn't consider this place to be her home. Despite how long she lived here, Barby still can't get used to the layout of cities. Getting through the wilderness was MUCH easier than this place. She just doesn't understand how anyone can go around without getting lost; even those maps were freakin confusing and... ...and then Barby's eyes spotted a very interesting person she walked past. Some kind of human girl with a horn on her head. "Hmm...must be a costume."

Az's ears twitched, and she glanced over at the new arrival. The tay looked almost like a cross between an armadillo and a chameleon, and especially odd considering the large twin swords sheithed on her back. Comical, even, considering her small size. New arrival... Was worth a shot. "Hello," she said, but it sounded more like "hay-lew" with the strong accent she used, " Can you understand me?"

The moment she heard that....er...sound, Barby snapped at the weird girl, which she now know she isn't a human. "....Excuse me?"

" Isn't there anyone at all who understands me!?" cried the girl in a loud and exasperated tone, throwing her arms up.

Barby dropped her head and shoulders in defeat and embarrasment. "Forget it. I'm making myself a stupid drango." She then looked up to the strange girl. "Look, whatever whacko slang you're speaking, I can't help ya. Sorry, but I gotta mozzie on." Slowly, Barby walked away. She took brief glances over her shoulder as she walked away. She knew whatever this girl was trying to say, it looked like she was in distress. But nothing she can do if she can't understand that....horn talk. Just...walk away, you daft koala. Walk away. Walk away...and don't look back at that girl...And she looked back. D'OH!!!

There was an electric sounding crackle, and suddenly a small two tailed fox appeared out of nowhere nearby. Tails looked around confusedly. One second he'd been with Aunt Sally...though she'd been dressing and acting funny, though not near as funny as the robot Robotnik had once replaced her with, and now he was...well it looked like pictures of old Mobotropolis that he'd been shown.

"What the-?!" she yelped after some flashy light nearly spooked her. "Huh? Whoa, it's you!" Barby ran over to Tails. Placing her hands on her knees, she bent a little towards his height. "Hey, lil mate, remember me? From Uncle Chuck's Stand in Station Sqaure? Well I never got to apoligize for actin like a idiot, a drooling fan girl, and like Mina. But I couldn't help it with this cute lil face." she rubbed the little fox on the head. She then arched a brow. "Um...weren't ya a little taller, kid?"

Az frowned at the new arrival. She wasn't a big fan of kids. Yet... that creepy koala seemed to be bothering him. Getting right in his face. She took a few steps towards them, scowling. One hand went to her scimitars. " Is she bothering you? ... Can you understand me?""

"W-who're you?" Tails asked Barby, backing up a bit. The abrupt change in scenery had temporarily robbed him of his Sonic given confidence, "A-and where a-am I?" Then something Barby said sank in, "Uncle Chuck? You know Uncle Chuck?"

When he asked who she was.... ...Barby dropped her head. " I deserved that." Then she answered his question about his new location. "Westopolis, kid, aka: my boring hell. What happen, teleported after fighting aliens or something, mate?" And now the Uncle Chuck question. "Urm, not really; just went to his lil stand some time ago. I mean, you were there. Weird guy, though." she said, circling her finger near her ear in a 'he loco' sense. "But it was friggin cool how he KO'd that bugger-" All of a sudden, Barby heard the strange girl's language behind her. When she looked, she noticed the girl putting her hand on...something, she didn't know what it was. "Oh!" she gasped, turning back to Tails. "I'm glad you're here, though. Listen, that girl there talks in some freaky-do language or something. I hear you're some wizz-kid...er, inventor genius thing. You have some gizmo that help translate whatever she's mumbling, or are you at least fluant in 'WTF lingo'? Cause I'm not gonna like myself if I leave her if she's trying to tell me her house is burning downunda or something."

Az was hardly intimidating (except for the swords on her back), being both only an inch taller than Tails, and skinnier than him. So. Time for assurance - or something. "Hay-lew."

"His stand? Uncle Chuck doesn't have a stand...do you mean his hideout, but only Freedom Fighters are supposta know about that!" The she looked away from him to glance at the...person behind her before turning back and asking him some more questions. "...I don't have any gizmos...Rotor might though..." He looked ver at Az, then meekly responded, "Hello."

"Freedom Fighters? What the bonza is that? Is that your super 'ero thing or something, kid?" .... "Wait...you know walrus-chops? Since when? Well I guess geniuses have to stick togehter, huh? Well I don't know if you know, but unless I want his gizmos to cause world-destruction, I wouldn't rely on that silly dork. So you can't use your genius to translate her? Goody..." she sighed, rubbing her forehead.

"Hey, don't make fun of Rote! He makes great stuff. He built a way cool plane, helped Sonic bring down Robuttnik's sky spy, and...and even built a de-roboticizer!" Ok so the de-roboticizer only lasted for a day, it still counted!

Now this was getting so suspicous, it sounded stupid, and she was not amused. "Okay, I know Rotor, but unless you're mistaking for some other walrus-chops, my walrus-chops would've bragged about whatever you're saying. And further more, yes he has built a few gizmos that ACTUALLY worked, but in all respect of friendship involved, his junk puts us, and even him in more wacko junk than you can ever---LOOK OUT!!!!" Swiftly, Barby dived, tackling both Tails and Az to the floor, before a smoky yellow craft crashed and slid through the sidewalk. Calmly, Barby stood up and dusted her fur. "I rest my case." Marching up to the strange flying bike, Barby then smacked the pilot on the head, even if he was wearing a yellow motor-bike helmet. "ROTOR YOU DOOF!! You almost ran over us!!" "Sorry... Good thing I'm wearing a helmet...but the oil containment valve somehow blew a hole, and the whole engine overheated. I couldn't control where to crash." the purple walrus removed his helmet, sheepishly lowering his head. It seems that face can even melt the inferno fury of Barby just a little. Sighing, she gently shoved Rotor's head. "Sometimes I think your head blew a hole a long time ago."

Suddenly Rotor would feel something small and fuzzy hugging him around the waist. "Rotor! You're here too! You gotta help, we've gotta get back to Knothole, somethin weird's going on!"

Az immediatly prickled up, but realized it was a defensive position and calmed slightly. " I don't need your protection!" she snapped. She knew the koala didn't understand her but she felt better after having snapped. But then there was a new threat.. a large walrus. She unsheithed her swords and shifted into a battle position... ... Only to have the kid cling him. She sighed loudly.

Oblivious to the swords, Barby walked up to Az and swung a arm around her shoulders. "C'mon here for a sec." She lead her to Rotor, hoping that maybe he can help, despite his resources leading to trouble. This was against her better judgment. "Okay, walrus-chops. As much as I hate to do this, I need your help on translating.......oh bugger." "No way...." yup, rather than be confused to what the heck Tails is talking about, Rotor obliviously ignored it, peeled Tails off of him and madly shook his hand. "I don't believe this! It's a big...BIG honor to meet you, sir! I'm a huge fan of your brilliant work! The designs of your bi-plane is just too brilliant to describe in words. My name is Rotor, and..." ... ... "Wait...how did you know my name?" he asked, suspiciously. ... ... "OF COURSE! You probably created some kind of generator that alters the fabric of the space time continuum, where you actually did met me and know me, but you reversed all life to status-quo in order to fix the fabrics of reality, so I don't remember." ... ... "INGENIOUS!!!!" ... ... ... *Face palmed* "Idiot..."

Tails just looked confused. "Rotor...why're you acting like you do when you're around Uncle Chuck?"

"........wha?" Grabbing his shoulder, Barby reeled Rotor close to her. "Hey, fan-boy later, mate. We have a situation." "But I wanna ask Tails if he can invite me to his workshop." (Glare from Hell) "......... eep." Barby patted Az on the shoulder. "This girl here speaks in some weird alien language. As much as I hate to rely on your 'bombs you call inventions', do you have some kooky gizmo to help her out?" "Urm...what kind of language?" he asked, looking at Az.

Her eyes narrowed further as she was commideered around by Barby. "I don't like to be touched by people who don't have abs." And now there was a new arrival. " Let me guess, you have no idea what I'm saying either." She wanted to hurt something. And it would probably be that koala if she kept manhandling her. Az was trying very, very hard not to be, but that koala apparently had no respect for person space and boundaries and all that. More muttering.

".......whoa! I think I heard that from Star Wars...or was it Star Trek." Shrugging, Rotor pulled out something from his belt. It was black, looked a bit like a Y-shaped pendent, though it was plastic looking so it's fake. "This is a good time to try out this. I found out that this is a laungage manipulator. It alters the sound voice waves around you, transforming it into different languages. I built this with a friend of mine, using the plans I got from that lab in Miracle Lake." Barby arched a brow at the device."Gee, brilliant...just get the freaky thing to work." "-groan-" He then turned to Az. "Excuse me, but um...I'm not sure you can understand me, but I want you just keep talking while I work this device. It'll help you translate your language."

She understood "keep talking". And he seemed to be... trying... to translate. Or something. This is what she said: " Hello... my name is Az Spyre. None of this is familiar to me at all. I have no idea where I am. The child looks vaguely familiar but that is all I know. I assume what you are holding is some sort of... translating... machine. I only know a few words of your language, but that is what I have gleaned. I speak Old Mobian." This is what they heard. First line. "Bonjour, je m'apelle Az Spyre." Second line. "Nessuno di questo è noto a me affatto." Third line. "Eu não tenho nenhuma idéia onde eu estou." Fourth line. "子供は漠然とよく知られている見るが、それは私が知っているすべてである." Fifth line. "Υποθέτω ότι τι κρατάτε είναι κάποιο είδος... της μεταφράζοντας... μηχανής." Sixth line. "Yae sporen diel Mobian."

Rotor kept twisting the eye knob, till a small holographic screen appeared. "Whoa...this thing recorded the knowledge of this girl's language. It doesn't know what it's called, but it set the second set of the program to her language so it'll sound like to her that we're speaking her lanuage, so she'll understand us." "Oh how fascinating, walrus-chops," muttered Barby, sarcastically. "Now can you set her to Mother Earth words, mate?" "This is a alien device, Barby. It probably recorded thousands of alien languages, so I don't know if I'll find the English file in this..." and suddenly, the screen wrote the words: Earth-English file. "Oh, voice command system. Awesome!" As Rotor twiddled the knob, he then frowned. "Oh crud...the file is corrupted." "Joy..." Barby muttered, rolling her eyes. A pixelated pic of a Chao was shown on the screen, hammering the word 'Repairing' with a hammer. Below him was a time bar, slowly filling up. "Looks like the device is repairing the file, but it'll take time. -sigh-....Guess we'll just have to figure out some other way to-" "W-w-w-WAIT! Go to a Spanish file, mate! I know Spanish!" "You WHA?" he gawked in confusion at his friend as he set the device to Spanish for Az. She walked up to Az, and spoke, "Alright, let's try this again. I'm Barby, the tech-dofus is Rotor, and the kid who seems to loss some memory is the 'almighty' world-hero, Tails. Now what is it you're yapping about?" Remember, thanks to the device, the gang will seem like they're talking in Az language (Since I'm not sure she can understand English), while it'll seem like to the gang that Az is speaking in... ... Spanish!!!

"That tiny child is a world hero?" Az responded, with a hint of disdain. Not that she was in any position to be calling anyone tiny, being both only slightly taller than him and thinner, "I am Az Spyre. I know nothing of your strange machines. They are almost as strange as the ones I saw in the metal city... I know not where I am. I only remember a bright flash of light," she leaned in, looking up at the koala intensely, "Where am I?"
