Multi-Verse Heroes

"Hah, remind me never to get on your bad side!" Not that it was a particular concern of his; the two of them got along better than most, in his experience. But maybe he was just biased. Lucifer paused to place the two little foxes in his arms on the floor, letting them prance around to their heart's content, before reaching up to affectionately scratch under Bee's chin.

"It's Hell. A girl's gotta be willing to throw hands to keep herself and her loved ones safe down here." She gave a small shrug as she watched the kits dash off to go play in their little sandbox she had set up in the other room. "And my temper will never end with me lashing out at you, Lu. I can promise that. Although... my true demon form showing up? That's always a option if you want it."

She's flirting again, she loves him. No lie there.

No.

Kids.

Allowed.

Adult.

Zone.

" Oops... Sorry, didn't mean to intrude...."

The doctor nervously fidgeted with her lab quote nervously. She knows she's technically not doing anything wrong, but she always felt so awkward talking to, well, anyone?

" I think I misplaced my box of scalpel blades, and I wanted to see if they showed up in here?"

Tails, for his part, sighs and prepares to intervene in an inevitable altercation - until a seeming double of himself shows up. "...Aeolus?" is all he can think to say, slightly dumbfounded. But darn it if that's not a really cool name...

Nine still looks ready to have a mirror match with himself. "We're not--"

"--we're not exploring, exactly!" Tails cuts in.

Aeolus sets a hand on his companion's shoulder and Nine's growling stops, he glances up at the older fox for confirmation and seems less hostile. Still guarded however as he steps to the side to have a clearer view of the two. As for Aeolus however he gives a small shrug and chuckle when his alternate name is brought up.

"I've encountered more than a few other dimensional or even timeline variations of myself, it's easier to have a unique separate name that they can call me by." He clarifies why he uses that name. "Aeolus was the first thing that came to mind when an alternate asked me to pick another name. And for Nine here... it was easier for him to use it rather than my old childhood name. So...if he's more comfortable with it, I'm not gonna stop him."

Nine doesnt say anything at first, he just watches them both warily. He's gotten better about not jumping to conclusions but...he knows himself well enough to be guarded. When Tails says he doesnt recognize the island, he does speak up.

"Clover Island is only found in very very old dimensions, those touched by numerous temporal anomalies and events yet manage to endure." He explains the existence of this place flatly. "It is a safe haven for foxes like us. No one is aware it exists in this dimension, Aeolus has worked hard to ensure that."

"Aaaaahhhh... well..." A moment of hesitation, before he simply leaned against her chest. "Lets just say I... miiiiight have been tricked into becoming a battery for a giant angelic laser. I'm fine now, though! Everything is tooootally fine!"

Well...that was the first she was hearing of that. That couldn't have been fun. Still she pressed her muzzle to his cheek in a gentle nuzzle to comfort him. "Oh, Lu...I'm so glad you're okay. I know there was nothing I could have done at the time but if things get crazy again I can always send my hellhounds up there, and I'm sure there are a few imps that have some.....creative ideas for how to deal with sinners."

"Souls regenerate...."

What? Sometimes the stories up on earth sounded like a good idea. There was one book she'd picked up during her last time up there and...yeah it sounded like good ideas but sadly they couldnt really overhaul everything now. However she could come up with particularly painful sentences for those that messed with those she loved.

As for going to see Charlie she really should. By now she was sure Charlie had heard all about Bee and Lucifer being together. Bee could only hope Charlie was okay with that, she was...particularly attached to Lilith. Bee was dreading the day that woman returned to hell... but Charlie was a sweetheart. She adored that girl.

"Oh ho ho, I can't wait to see the look on his face!"

Eventually. He hadn't QUITE gotten around to saying hi to EVERYBODY yet. Baby steps. At Bee's next question, his grin ever so briefly faltered, before he redoubled his enthusiasm.

"Okay? She's doing fantastic! The hotel is hopping right now! That TV Head of an Overlord tried to pull some ridiculous nonsense, but he didn't get very far. Everything blew up in his face, and everything came up Morningstaaaar!"

She had seen the hesitation, brief although it was, and set down the fox kit in her arms in order to have her arms free to wrap them around her beloved. "Lucifer...I know you have to be brave in the face of almost everyone, but you don't have to do so with me. If you want to talk about it, I'm here. And if not...that's okay too. Just know you have the option."

Full Name: Alphonse Ironwood

Nickname: Al

Species: Android Hedgehog (officially a Solarian Metal Sonic)

Gender: Male

Home Zone: Solaria (Formerly Mobius 12)

Power Supply: Broken Chaos Emerald

Physical Appearance: Formerly a classic robot build, Al’s body was upgraded to an extremely advanced android body that takes on the appearance of Sonic. The main difference between the two at first appearance is Al’s cobalt blue eyes that can literally give off light with high emotions. 

Abilities: 

Super Speed- As a Metal Sonic model, Alphonse can preform all the basic functions as his father before him. 

Medical Equipment- There is no better robot better equipped to keep their companions alive than Alphonse. He is fully equipped with all manner of life saving devices, life support (for robots AND organics), and even a built in oxygen tank. He can even preform an emergency surgery or amputation if he has no other choice. If there is a need for a medic, Alphonse has it covered.

Cloaking and holo-guise- Originally built for getting in and out of battles to recover wounded citizens, Al comes fully equipped with stealth capabilities. A cloaking device, padded feet for silence, and a signal jammer to mess with heat cameras and scanners.

Auto Repair- A welcome function that allows Alphonse to patch himself up the moment he’s injured. Will take time for repairs to occur but most blows are gone after a few minutes.

Armaments: Claws- Made of an enchanted metal called Dragon Steel, Al’s retractable claws are sharper than Metal Sonic 1.0 models, can slice through almost anything. They come with a self sanitizing feature whenever they are retracted as they also function as scalpels for the medic’s work.

Overdrive ability- Alphonse has the gift of excess power and can exert this power in strong bursts of electricity. He can shoot these pulses from his hands or electrify his claws for more damage. He can also reroute the power to weaken it enough to turn his palms into defibulators.

Burst Shield- A defensive version of the Overdrive function, used to create a temporary shield around the robot to protect him from attacks. It costs a LOT of power though so he uses it sparingly.

Personality: 

Alphonse’s maturity in his behavior changes depending on the situation he is in, making his true mental age impossible to predict. He’s very curious about new situations and his new body gives him the confidence to intract with just about anyone. He is starting to be more open about what he is…

A gentle soul who is always willing to help out his friends or even strangers even if he is worse off than they are. Alphonse is the friend you want near when something goes wrong.

When in battle mode, he becomes very much like a true Metal Sonic in his actions. However…he is learning how to find his own style. 

History

Al was built by an original Metal Sonic, that droid created most of Alphonse’s basic coding. Al was told that his father died retrieving the young robot’s current power source but no one divulged anymore information to him. Everything he knows now…comes from what he’s learned on his own. 

Alphonse was tasked with providing life support to those injured by various things, often these things being natural disasters or pirate attacks. His primary function is to serve as a medical unit for the Warp Force and has secondary functions for stealth and battle when things go badly.  As the scout of the team, he usually goes on scouting missions to surrounding areas to acquire intel on the zone and send updates on how friends are doing over there. However, recently this job has expanded to many zones and his reasons are his own for he is a constant worry bot.

When damage over five years had damaged his old body too badly, Alphonse recieved a major overhaul. A brand new body made from tech far, FAR in the future of Mobius. It is nearly impossible to tell him apart from an organic now. Warm, seems to breath and blink, capable of eating and drinking if he wants to, and even has a heartbeat and pulse of sorts. However he is still an android, he doesnt need food an water to surivive and can preform all of his mechanical functions as needed.

In Truth there was alot about that day she couldn't fully remember. It had sapped so much of her strength away she'd slept for days. But Miles had said she told him all sorts of things in her sleep--- thing was she couldn't remember much of it. She wondered if he used magic or if she was just kind of out of it.

" I'm just glad i could help though... i hope i never have to do that again! i've never been so exhausted... i'm just glad it all worked out! and you managed to get Al working again! i was getting a little worried "

She admitted as she clasped her hands in front of herself.

" Whys he outside? to afraid ill hug him or something! gosh he's such a silly guy! but i can't wait to see what you've done with his new body! no matter the changes though i know he'll be the same goofball! hehe probably nag me extra hard about overworking myself..."

"Oh yeah! I made sure he's still a Metal Sonic in truth, I know how much it means to him that he's one of the good ones." Aeolus beamed as he went to open the door and held if for Amy to be the first one outside. "But....no one's gonna know that just by looking at him anymore."

Outside, were two people looking over the recovery of the zone they were in. One was a younger twin tailed fox, another Tails alternate but this one seemed more grounded and mature than most of his other doubles. He was sitting on the seven mechanical tails that were affixed to his body, rather calmly watching a blue hedgehog who had his back towards the building right now as he was testing his hands....no...claws.

"–Dragon steel's a major upgrade from the last set, I doubt these are ever gonna wear down." He turns around to look at the fox with him as he retracts his metal claws back into his hand. Seemed his gloves had hidden slits to allow him to extend and retract his claws as needed. "And you kept the self sanitization, right? I still have a job to do..."

"Of course..." Sighed the fox cub, sounding a touch annoyed. "We told you all your medical functions have been retained. May look odd when you need to do your primary function but it–"

He stopped when he noticed the two joining them. "Hello."

The "hedgehog" looked up too, cobalt blue eyes lighting up with joy at seeing the pink hedgehogette. Literally. The light behind those eyes brightened into a familiar cyan glow.
