Nextgen Kids: Legend of the Nine Newborn

The Cooking Festival

Even though my different stories contain a large array of crossovers, they each follow the theme or style of one of those crossovers. This story will heavily be following Toriko's style, because we're going on a great gourmet adventure! So, let's start with a traditional crossover dump! (Don't worry, most of these characters won't be involved much in the plot. XD)

Gourmet 1: The Cooking Festival

Cranber Ruins; one day ago

The ruins reeked of rotting breath, pools of acid lurking below them. Augustus von Fizzuras swung the tooth-shaped stalactites with his Licorope, his boots sternly landing on the opposite platform. His explorer's hat protected his dark-blonde head from the ooze drooping from the ceiling. He wore his signature sunglasses, belted blue jeans, and brown explorer's vest that matched his sturdy boots.

Swinging after him was Rawberry Preserves, a white-skinned girl with a poofy black dress and pink hair split into wide bat wings. "Man, your ancestor's temple really stinks." Augustus commented.

"Cranber was the heaviest glutton in New Galaxia." Rawberry replied. "They say this temple reeks of her very scent."

"No wonder Goombella didn't wanna come in here. Hope she's having fun in those other ruins."

The center of the temple possessed a large statue of a troll with a grinning, drooling mouth, and what appeared to be spiked hair protruding around her body. There was a display case of stone cakes under bubble coverings, like you'd see at the store. The cakes were stacked with layers of rectangular slabs. "These are Cranber's Prophetic Pies. They foretell many major events relating to food. I've only ever eaten one... and let's just say that Tents and Mirth could do nothing to stop me~"

"Look." Augustus pointed. "That cake has an egg shape engraved. You think that's the one we're looking for?"

"It's pasta-ble." Rawberry cracked a food pun. "It could tell us something about Gourmerry. First, we need to take the pie to be prepared."

"Why are they called pies when they look like cakes?"

"Because Prophetic Pie sounds sweeter than Propheticake~"

"I... guess? Well, let's take all of them just in case. Now we just need someone to help prepare it."

Current time; Cooking Island (Play "Luncheon Town" from Mario Odyssey!)

At this time every four years, this island on Planet Aquaria was among the most populated in the universe: Cooking Island. Millions and millions of aliens of all species rode here to taste everything the worlds had to offer. It was 200 years ago that Acacia, the greatest Gourmet Hunter in history, founded this island and announced these words: "I wish to feed the whole universe!!"

The greatest chefs in the known universe were invited here to serve food to countless customers. Everything was paid for by the Galaxian Government and Intergalactic Travel costs were very cheap due to the surplus of people wishing to travel here.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it's the 50th Cooking Festivaaaaal!" Big Bird announced to the cosmos. The ratings for Intergalactic News always skyrocketed during this wonderful time. "So many BIG STEWS are brewing on this island! So many talented chefs are here! From Planet Earth, he's the finest chef in France, don't let his size fool you, it's REMY the RAT!" A blue-furred rat was shown on camera, waving happily. Beside him was Linguini, a skinny, fluffy-haired man, looking sheepish and awkward. (They're from Ratatouille.)

"From Oceana, he's the finest fry cook under the sea, it's JIM!" Jim was a chubby blue Fishman, smiling boastfully while flipping patties on a shiny grill(from Spongebob). "From Mushroom, the Toad Chef sisters, Tayce T. and Zess T.!" They were two elderly Toads with yellow spots on their shrooms. "Next, the legendary Traveling Chef, known for his recent feat in cooking the Linlin Sacred Cake, Tonio Trussardi!" He was a muscular Italian chef with a sparkling smile (JoJo).
