"The Adventures of the Three Heroes" presents...

“No One is an Island” (Volume 5, Story 7)

     It was a hot day out, but despite the heat, Kate decided to go out on a run. She got into her favorite running shoes, drank some water, and went off with her super speed. Just as she left, Tails tried to call for her to come back.

    “Hey Kate! You got mail!” he called out.

    Kate didn’t hear him. She just continued her run and left the area. Tails only sighed and walked back inside the tree house.

    Inside the tree house, the Jesse twins, Lukas, and Olivia were hanging out with Mario and Sonic. They came over because they had mail for the three heroes as well.

    “Since when did we get mail from someone in your world?” asked Mario. He opened up his letter.

    “I don’t know. We got a big envelope and we saw a bunch of smaller envelopes inside it. Three had your name, Sonic’s name, and Kate’s names,” said Male Jesse.

    He and his sister handed Mario and Sonic their letters.

    “Where did this originally come from?” asked Sonic.

    “They came from Sky City. Well, it’s not really called Sky City anymore, since they’re now on land. They still haven’t come up with a new name,” said Lukas.

    “So these came from Isa or Milo. And that’s my guess since this paper’s super fancy,” said Sonic.

    The friends opened up their letters.

    “Wait, are these invitations?” asked Mario.

    “Looks like Isa and Milo wanted to invite us over to a party,” said Male Jesse.

    “Well, well, well, Mario and I can invite Peach and Amy over to the party. And I bet Kate will invite Knuckles,” Sonic said, grinning.

    “Bro, you and I got a letter. So did Lukas, Petra, and Ivor. But it says we can invite the others,” said Female Jesse.

    “Yeah. I’m glad I can bring Olivia,” Male Jesse said. He smiled at Olivia when he said that, causing her to blush.

    A little while later, after the group chatted about the party Isa invited them to, Kate returned. She didn’t look tired out by her run, but she did go to the kitchen and got some water.

    “Oh Kate, you’re finally back. We got some mail from Isa. She invited us to a party,” said Mario.

    “Really? When is it?” asked Kate.

    “Friday. And you can bring Knuckles,” said Sonic. “He could be your date,” he said, grinning at Kate.

    To everyone’s surprise, Kate shook her head and said, “Sorry, can’t make it.”

    “Why not? You already have other plans?” asked Olivia.

    “I promised Aiden that I’d hang out with him,” said Kate.

    “Aiden?” asked Lukas.

    “Yeah. While I was out on my run, I had the book for your world with me. I used it to teleport to your world, and I decided to visit Aiden. We chatted for a bit, and he said he was pretty upset on getting denied to come to Isa’s party. Apparently, she did want to invite him, Gill, and Maya to the party, but because of how her people still treat them, they can’t come. So I told Aiden that I can do something with him, Gill, and Maya on Friday instead,” said Kate.

    “It’s been a few months already. Why won’t Isa’s people let it go? I know Isa, Milo, and Reginald understand, but why won’t the rest of them?” said Mario.

    “Guess what happened at Sky City really made them bitter to the Blaze Rods,” said Lukas.

    “I know I was invited to the party to, but I promised Aiden. I’ve got other plans. If Isa and her guests are curious, just tell them I’m sick or something,” said Kate.

    “Well, we understand why you won’t go, Kate. If you don’t want us to go-” Female Jesse started to say.

    “Nah. You can go if you want to. You guys go ahead to the party if you want to. I just can’t go because I have other plans,” said Kate. “Oh, that reminds me, I’ve gotta prep for what I had in mind for them.”

    She dashed out of the room and to the garage.

    “Your sister sure can be full of energy,” Male Jesse told Mario and Sonic.

    “I’m surprised by the fact that you two consider her a sister. Don’t other people find it odd or make fun of you about that?” Olivia asked Mario and Sonic.

    “Oh come on. Kate’s one of our best friends. In fact, when Mario and I first met her, she saved our lives,” said Sonic.

    “We’ve never read the story, so really?” asked Lukas.

    “Yeah. Bowser and Eggman thought we already knew her, and from an order from that blood-thirsty demon called Dark King, they tried to drown us, since Sonic can’t swim,” said Mario.

    “Kat was by there, and after sending the bad guys blasting off, she came in and saved us from drowning. When we realized that she didn’t treat us as celebrities or approved of the senseless rivalry we had, we ended our rivalry,” said Sonic.

    “And from that point on, the three of you became friends, as well as the Three Heroes,” said Female Jesse.

    “Yeah. Kate’s like a sister to us, and we even got used to calling her our sister,” Mario said with a chuckle.

    “That explains why you guys tend to worry about her sometimes,” said Lukas.

     

    Friday arrived at long last, and those who were invited went to Isa’s new house and attended the party. Of course, Kate wasn’t with the group when they came.

    Mario and Sonic arrived, and they brought Peach, Amy, Luigi, Daisy, Tails, and Cream with them. Female Jesse, Male Jesse, Lukas, Olivia, Petra, Axel, and Ivor met up with them before heading over to the party. When they arrived, lots of Isa’s people were excited to see the New Order of the Stone, but a few were happy to meet Mario, Sonic, and their friends, since they heard about the story and even knew Kate.

    “I’m glad you guys could come to the party,” Isa said, smiling at them.

    “Thanks for inviting us,” said Female Jesse.

    “Hey guys. Wait, where’s Miss Katelyn?” said Reginald.

    “Oh, she couldn’t come. She had other plans today,” said Sonic.

    “Well, that’s understandable. We’ll probably see her again some other time,” said Milo.

    While the party was starting, Kate was going over to where Aiden, Maya, and Gill built their new house. When she got over there, she saw a group of people fighting them. The guys were all dressed like punks. One of them had flint and steel, and was walking up to the Blaze Rods’ house. Two of them held Maya and Gill with their hands behind their backs to prevent them from fighting, while the leader, the only girl, antagonizing Aiden. She kicked and punched him down to the ground, and while Aiden tried to get back on his feet, she stepped away from him.

    “You three don’t belong here. Why did the Founder and Milo give you a chance?” the girl sneered at them.

    She pulled out a splash potion and threw it towards Aiden.

    Kate didn’t like what was going on.  She quickly dove in the way. But instead of getting hit by the potion, she threw it back. The potion hit the girl hard on the head.

    “Wahh!” she cried.

    “That’s what happens when you deal with Karma!” Kate snapped at her.

    She caught the one with the flint and steel preparing to light Aiden, Maya, and Gill’s house on fire. She pulled out a fire flower and threw a fire ball at him. The fireball hit him right on the butt.

    “Gahhh!” he cried. He quickly jumped on the ground and tried to drag his butt to put out the flame.

    “Wow, not only do you follow your snobby leader’s orders like a dog, but you drag your butt like one,” Kate sneered at him.

    “Hey I heard that…” the girl groaned. The potion’s effects had given her nausea, so she struggled to walk.

    Kate eyed the guys who had Maya and Gill hostage. The two of them stared at her with scared looks, let go of Maya and Gill, and backed up. Kate pulled out her sword as she still eyed the guys. The two guys dropped on the floor as if Kate hit them, then they quickly got up and ran away with the other guy, as they tried to help the girl run away.

    Once they were gone, Kate walked over to help Aiden stand up. Aiden had a black eye and had a few cuts on his face.

    “You okay, Aiden?” she asked him.

    “No…” Aiden groaned.

    After she helped him stand up, she turned to face Maya and Gill and asked them if they were okay as well.

    “We’re fine, but it’s Aiden we’re worried about…” said Gill.

    “Thanks for the help, Kate. Those guys have been following that girl around. They came around after the Sky City people built their town down here,” said Maya.

    “Just because they’re the newbies doesn’t mean they can break any rules Isa has set up,” Kate said. She helped Aiden stand up.

    “Why don’t I take you guys over to the tree house? I can treat Aiden’s wounds,” said Kate.

    “Thanks Kate,” said Aiden.

    Kate pulled out the book to her world and brought them over to the tree house.

     

    The group of people who antagonized Aiden, Maya, and Gill came over to Isa’s party. They ignored what Reginald said about them not coming in since they weren’t invited and came to bother Isa. And they only came to bother Isa and lie about the  Blaze Rods throwing a potion of nausea at their leader.

    Trying her best to keep her temper, Isa told them to leave or else they’d be in serious trouble. The group didn’t want to leave yet, but Mario and Sonic told them to back off, or else they’d use some of their abilities on them.

    Once the group was gone, Isa let out a sigh of relief.

    “Who the heck were those guys?” asked Axel.

    “Ugh! That was a group of people who wandered in after we set up our town. They came from someplace far away. Their names are Andrea, Brian, Brad, and Justin. They’re just a bunch of jerks. They’ve been antagonizing Aiden, Maya, and Gill a lot,” said Isa.

    “Worst part is, some of the people only side with them against the Blaze Rods just to save their own necks from Andrea and her group…” Milo said with a sigh.

    “Is that why you didn’t invite Aiden and his friends to the party today?” asked Petra.

    Isa sighed and said, “Yes...”

    “You should make it up to them. They truly want to make amends to you and your people,” said Sonic.

    “And to be honest, when Kate said she had other plans, it was because she went to go visit Aiden, Maya, and Gill. She got the invitation after she told them she’d hang out with them,” said Mario.

    “I figured she would go see them, and I have respect for her wish to see them,” said Isa.

    “We’ll make it up to them. We promise,” said Reginald.

     

    Back with Aiden, Maya, Gill, and Kate, the four of them were now at the tree house. Kate treated Aiden’s wounds and gave him some medicine to treat his black eye.

    “Thanks Kate,” said Aiden. He managed to make a small smile.

    “Hey, you guys are my friends, and I don’t like seeing my friends being beaten like that. No need to thank me,” said Kate.

    “Well, we appreciate what you did back there,” said Gill, smiling.

    Kate smiled at them.

    “Anyway, what would you guys like to do? You’re my guests, so it’s up to the three of you,” said Kate.

    “We haven’t really gotten to see much of this world. We were hoping we could go out,” said Maya.

    “You mean like an adventure? I’d be happy to take you guys on an adventure,” said Kate.

    “An adventure? That sounds like fun,” said Aiden.

    “Yeah! Adventure!” Gill said excitedly.

    “I know a cool place we can explore,” said Kate.

     

    After a while of traveling, Kate brought them over to Seaside Hill.

    “What place is this?” asked Gill.

    “Seaside Hill. Sonic once came here with Tails and Knuckles. A few of the others have come to. They went through here on an adventure before they became friends with Mario, or even met me,” said Kate.

    “This beach is so beautiful. I wonder what they had to do when they came here,” said Maya.

    “My guess is that they chased after Eggman, like Sonic normally does,” said Aiden.

    “Well, they all thought they were after Eggman, but they found out eventually they were pursuing Metal Sonic at the end,” said Kate.

    “Oh, is that the time that Sonic’s team, Shadow’s team, Amy’s team, and Team Chaotix crossed paths and had to team up to stop Metal Sonic when he became that huge, evil robot monster?” asked Maya.

    “Yep,” said Kate.

    “Wow. Sounds bizarre,” said Aiden.

    As the group started to walk around Seaside Hill, they didn’t know that they were being watched. Wario and Waluigi were watching them, and they recently stole a wand from a Magikoopa. They had been tracking down Kate because they were paid by Sally to capture her and bring her to Sally’s house.

    Kate, Aiden, Gill, and Maya didn’t know that Mario and Luigi’s rivals were following them.

    “What are these things in the shells?” asked Gill.

    “Hermit crabs. They live in a shell and when they outgrow their shell, they find a new one to live in,” said Kate.

    “All our world has for animals is cows, pigs, chickens, sheep, ocelots, wolfs, and bats. And you know the monsters of course,” said Maya.

    “I wish our world had more animals like yours does. It would be amazing to have more animals to see,” said Aiden.

    “Still, I find it a cool experience to see these hermit crabs. They aren’t in our world, so we have a story to share,” said Gill.

    “Yeah…” Aiden said. He formed a small smile.

    Kate smiled at her friend. “Hey Aiden, just remember this: no one is an island. There’s always someone who cares for someone else. Even the loneliest person still has someone who cares about them. I know that Isa’s people might struggle to let go what happened, but no matter what, I’m still your friend, and so is Maya, Gill, and even Female Jesse. No one is an island,” she told him.

    “Thanks Kate,” Aiden said. He started to feel a little bit better.

    Kate was about to open her mouth and say something, but she felt something hit her in the back. She passed out and suddenly got pulled away. Wario and Waluigi succeeded in capturing her.

    “Ha! Now for the sweet pay!” said Wario.

    But he shouted too loud, because Aiden, Maya, and Gill turned around and saw him and Waluigi capturing Kate.

    “Hey! Let our friend go!” Gill shouted angrily.

    Wario stuck his tongue out at them.

    “You asked for it!” Maya shouted.

    She pulled out a spawn egg that she got from Isa and Benedict and threw it at Wario and Waluigi. It hit Waluigi on the head and spawned in a creeper, which blew up.

    Wario and Waluigi got hurt a bit, but that didn’t stop them from getting into the car and speeding away, and they still had Kate hostage.

    “We gotta follow them!” said Aiden.

    He began to run after them, but of course, he couldn’t keep up with the pace of the car.

    “Here, let’s use this!” said Gill.

    He pulled out a splash potion of swiftness and threw it on the ground. He, Maya, and Aiden got the effects of the potion.

    “As Sonic would say, ‘Gotta go fast!’ Now let’s save our friend!” said Aiden.

    He quickly ran off with Maya right behind him.

    “Now there’s the Aiden I know,” Gill whispered to himself before running after his friends.

    In their car, Wario and Waluigi continued to drive away. They started driving normally since they figured that Aiden, Maya, and Gill couldn’t catch up. However, Waluigi spotted them running in one of the car’s mirrors.

    “Oh crap!” he shouted.

    Wario looked in the mirror and saw them coming. “How many of them are going to start running like the hedgehog?!” he cried.

    He slammed his foot on the gas pedal, picking up the speed of the car. Aiden, Maya, and Gill noticed that they were starting to speed, but they only pushed themselves to run faster.

    They finally caught up to the car. Aiden pulled out his sword and did something pretty daring: jumped onto the car. He spotted a skylight window in the car and smashed it with his sword. Since his sword was diamond and enchanted, he broke the window easily.

    Wario and Waluigi looked up and freaked out when they saw him trying to get in. Waluigi quickly grabbed the wand they stole from a Magikoopa and tried to hit Aiden with it. Aiden grabbed it and started to get into a tug-of-war with him.

    As a result, the wand went flying off, but Maya quickly grabbed it. She aimed at the car and zapped the back wheels, making them pop. The car started to swever a bit, but Aiden managed to get inside. He punched Wario and Waluigi before grabbing Kate and climbing out.

    “Look out!” cried Gill. He could see that the car was heading straight for the ocean in Seaside Hill.

    “Gill, take her!” Aiden shouted.

    He tossed Kate off. Gill caught her and slowed down. Maya tried to keep up with the truck, but she felt the effects of the potion wearing off.

    “Aiden, get out of there!” she tried to call out to him.

    Aiden started to get off, but Wario pulled him back and tried to punch him. Aiden smacked him with his sword and managed to jump off before the car drove right into the ocean.

    “Aiden, are you okay?” cried Maya. She managed to catch up and helped him stand up.

    “Yeah. I’m okay,” he said. He gave her a smile to assure her he was.

    He, Maya, and Gill suddenly heard some shouts coming from the ocean. Wario and Waluigi got out of the car and avoided drowning, but they were about a mile away from the shore.

    “Let’s book it while they can’t catch up,” Gill whispered.

    “Yeah. And let them keep shouting. They’ll waste their breath,” said Maya, as she started to back away.

    She, Gill, and Aiden quickly headed home. Now that they had Kate with them, it was time to get back to the tree house before Wario and Waluigi could catch up.

     

    Aiden, Maya, and Gill made it back to the tree house. They were a little nervous was they headed back, because they wondered if Wario and Waluigi had caught up to them and were following them.

    Gill carried Kate the whole time. She was unconscious for a bit, but she woke up once they made it back to the tree house.

    “Huh? What happened?” Kate asked them.

    “These two guys tried to kidnap you. They were both wearing mostly purple, but one was pretty fat and had yellow as well. They wore hats like Mario and Luigi,” said Aiden.

    “Wario and Waluigi. They are rivals to the Mario bros. They are pretty mischievous and will do what it takes to get paid, even though Wairo has a gold mine. They used to just bully the bros, especially Luigi, but they’ve been using stuff like that Magikoopa wand to do more,” said Kate.

    “But do they ever kidnap people?” asked Gill.

    “No. But while I was in the truck, I heard them talk about why they were kidnapping me. Sonic’s ex paid them to kidnap me…” said Kate.

    “Sonic’s ex? You mean that Sally Acorn girl? Geez, why does she hate you? Sonic loves you as a sister,” said Maya.

    “She and some of her little friends hate me because apparently, I ‘stole’ their positions in Mario and Sonic’s lives. They basically wish I never existed, because they feel that they could have the guys to themselves, but that’s not the case. They treated Tails, Luigi, and the others badly, which is why Mario and Sonic won’t hang around them anymore,” said Kate.

    “Man… they sound… jealous. No, worse than jealous. I admit, I was jealous of Female Jesse, but I came to my senses. I can’t believe your rivals won’t,” said Aiden.

    “You’re better than them, Aiden. I know it. You, Maya, and Gill came to help me. You’re heroes,” said Kate, smiling at them.

    “’No one is an island’. Something a friend told us,” Aiden said, smiling back.

    “Guess I owe you guys one,” said Kate.

    “You already did. Honestly Kate, you’ve made our day because you wanted to hang out with us instead of go to the party,” said Maya.

    “I made a promise, after all,” said Kate, smiling.

     

    A little while later, Mario, Sonic, and the others were back at the tree house to meet up with Kate, Aiden, Maya, and Gill. Isa, Reginald, and Milo also came over, since they wanted to hang out with the Blaze Rods and make amends for not inviting them to the party.

    “I apologize for not inviting you all. I would’ve, if my people didn’t coldly tell me that I shouldn’t…” Isa apologized.

    “It’s okay, Isa. In fact, we had some fun with Kate today,” said Aiden.

    “What did you guys do?” asked Male Jesse.

    The four friends told the rest of the group what happened at Seaside Hill, when Wario and Waluigi kidnapped Kate, but the Blaze Rods saved her.

    “Wow, some day you had,” said Petra.

    “Now I wish I didn’t go to the party, because what you guys did sounds exciting,” Sonic said with a chuckle.

    “Probably the most exciting Friday afternoon I’ve had in years,” Kate said, laughing a bit.

    And for the rest of the evening, the group hung out, chatted, and shared stories.

     

    The end!

    And till next time on “The Adventures of the Three Heroes”!

The seventh story to volume 5 of "The Adventures of the Three Heroes"

Summary: Instead of going to a party hosted by Isa, Kate goes to hang out with the Blaze Rods. Their day of hanging out takes quite a turn when they try to go out and enjoy themselves. But all in all, no one is an island.

Nice story. ^^

So it seems there is a group of jerks in Sky City now who cause trouble to the Blaze Rods. Pathetic, I hate guys like them, especially those who lie about a situation they caused themselves. Good thing Kate decided to not go to the party to hand out with Aiden, Gill and Maya.

And good thing the Blaze Rods stopped Wario and Waluigi.
