Crossed Dimensions Unite

Chapter 5: The Mystery of the Asteroid

"What?! Vlad's back? But how? Why does he want to rip the world apart?," Danny questioned, panicking.

"I'm not sure. I wasn't able to figure it out myself. What I do know is that he managed to create some sort of weapon using materials from the asteroid you saved Earth from, and found away to travel through it, and throughout many dimensions. On top of that, he's not alone. Many enemies from many dimensions, maybe enemies from your group's worlds. I'm honestly not sure how he can be stopped or how I can help get your friends back to their own worlds, but what I do know is that you and your group must find Vlad. Look for any clues, whether in the Ghost Realm, or your human world. I wish I could do more, but my mansion has been destroyed. I can't look through time or travel. If I did, it would be very risky," Clockwork said.

"Oh, this is very bad. If we can't get back to our dimensions, there's a high possibility we may fade from existence," Jimmy said.

"That's ridiculous. What gave you the idea of us fading, just because we're not in our dimensions?," Timmy asked, confused.

"U-Um, g-guys? I-I think I may know what Jimmy means," Spongebob said, shaking with fear.

Looking down, the others noticed that SpongeBob hands started to fade in and out. The situation became more serious than they expected and realized they had to come up with a plan to keep their bodies from fading. This gave Jimmy and Timmy an idea.

"I could always invent something that could stabilize us, as we remain in this dimension. But it would require materials from that asteroid Clockwork mentioned," Jimmy said.

"Oooor, I can make a wish. I call dibs first! Cosmo, Wanda, I wish me, Jimmy, and Spongebob's body's won't fade away, while in Danny Fenton's world," Timmy said, immediately making the wish.

"Okay, here goes nothing!," Wanda said, granting the wish.

Right away, Spongebob, Timmy, and Jimmy's bodies cease from fading.

"See? What I tell ya? Wishes beat science, ha-ha!," Timmy said, cheerfully.

"That may be true, but you didn't mention for how long in the wish. Who knows when we'll start fading again? I say, as a backup, we should look for the asteroid and grab some samples, so I can get my machine running," Jimmy said, leaving Timmy speechless.

"That's a good idea, but how will we find this asteroid? On top of that, how will we be able to get into space?," Spongebob said.

"THAT I can handle. My parents are major inventors, as you all know, so they may still have some space equipment from when I once had to go to space. But I, uh, was fighting someone, at the time," Danny said. "Once we get the materials for Jimmy and he begins working on the machine, me and Spongebob will try to look for Vlad. Timmy, you're staying with Jimmy, in case he needs any help."

"What?! Why do I have to stay with the science geek? I want in the action too! You really think this Sponge is capable of taking down someone like Vlad? He's too nice and seems like a total scardy-cat," Timmy shouted.

"Hey! I may be a Sponge, flip patties for a living, go jellyfishing, and blow bubbles, but I'll have you know that I can do ka-ra-tae~! Hiiiiii-yah!," Spongebob said, pulling out his karate gloves, and chopping the back of Timmy's knee.

"What the--! Why you little...!"

"That's enough!," Danny shouted, cutting Timmy off, and ceasing the fight between him and Spongebob. "My decision is final! You got the plan, so let's get it over with, alright?!"

"Please be careful on your journey. Who knows what may happen along the way," Clockwork said.

"We will. You take care and do what you need to do here. As for us, we're going to space," Danny said, as he and the others left the Ghost Zone.

Once back at Danny's, the four went down to the Fenton lab, and took a look around for any space gear. It took a lot of moving things around and digging into deep spaces, but the group finally managed to find a closet of space helmets, air tanks, rope, tubes, walkie-talkies, and tools they could use to collect pieces from the asteroid. The next step they had to figure out was how they were gonna get up to space. Right as they were thinking that, the sound of the newsman came from the TV in the living room.

"This just in, our space-center facility has finally announced that out fellow astronaut named Alex Humphry is taking his very first trip to outer space. He will be the first human to land on Saturn! He will soon be taking off in fifteen minutes! Stay tuned to see his perfect take-off, and a full announcement on his whereabouts."

The four of them made eye contact at the same time and shared a fellow smirk, before quickly taking off, straight to the space-center. When they arrived, Danny made sure everyone was attached to the other, before making him and the others disappear, and sneak through security. The four of then sneaked onto the ship, but remained invisible to the pilot.

"Aaaand he's taking off in three, two, one! Liftoff!"

Just like that, the ship took off and straight to space. The beginning was a struggle for Danny and the gang, as they had to remain invisible, but not fall and give themselves away.

"Waaaah, tarder sauce! E-Everything is shaking so viciously! I-I'm having a hard time staying together!," SpongeBob whispered, feeling his body shake and swing from side to side.

"I don't like this close contact, but don't you dare let go! We have to stay hidden, until we get to Saturn!," Timmy said, pulling Spongebob back in.

Eventually, the shaking came to a stop, and their bodies began to float. That is until the pilot turned on automatic gravity, which stopped everyone from floating. Thankfully Danny was still floating, so he could set himself and the other's gently back onto the ground. Looking out the window, they could see billions of stars, and the planet Earth leaving their very eyes. They passed the moon and Mars, before eventually making it to Saturn. The group wanted to continue watching the pilot's adventure, but knew they had to focus on finding the asteroid, and where better to start than Saturn itself, home of most of space's asteroids.

"Alright guys, try to stay close. We don't wanna be seperated in this wide space of, uh, well, space. Now, let's try to--"

"Why, hello there~," a voice called out, cutting Danny off guard, and gaining the group's attention.

"You all look so tiny from where I float~. What do you losers think you're doing up in outer space~?"

"Plankton?!"
