Of course all of John's clothes has been either destroyed or dissolved from his transformation. Leaving only the things in his suit case that were transferred to the hotel the newly married couple was to stay at.
No one in on the street or in the buildings or in the sky even gave a second glance to the transforming John into a giant orange, black and white fox robot.
There were giant blue and white mechas with the word 'POLICE' painted on their sides scattered through out the city as John could now see, there was also giant robots giving each other the old one-two punch in a giant floating stadium in the cloud line. As he focused on one, he felt knowledge and specs of them download into his cache. It also felt strange when he realized he had no idea WHY he knew he had a cockpit in the first place, or how he knew the lay out of his new insides without even giving it a first thought.
Thinking itself was beginning to feel like an annoying troublesome thing to do, he could think just fine, and certainly enjoyed thinking, but where was his pilot to tell him what to do? Oh right, that would logically be Carrie.
John also wondered why he wasn't panicking like he knew he should have been right now, Toon World or not. But he didn't feel like complaining to the authorities, his function was to follow orders and to obey and protect his pilot Carrie, ugh, no, his WIFE Carrie.
Who cared if he was a giant machine and she wasn't? Love went beyond that. Oy. John began to feel confused, which for a giant mecha was never a good thing.
Carrie traveled up the escalator leading straight to John's now empty head, his memories and psyche all stored in his data core in his chest compartment.
The room was dark, round, gave off a slight hum. Inside she found a one person motorcycle like seat with control grips.
The moment Carrie stepped in the place came to life with holographic displays showing things from a 360 degrees point of view along with stats on J0-HN.
"Pilot detected. Upgrading pilot for compatibility with setting." Came a monotone version of John's voice. A green grid like light swept over Carrie. Still wearing her cliche sailor school girl outfit, she age regressed until she was a fourteen years old. The outfit stayed perfectly in size and shape for her. Then her ears vanished and she was deaf for a moment before red fox ears popped into being on top of her brown hair, and a red fox tail formed out of a opening in her dress.
Feeling dizzy, electronic 'brass knuckles' with plugs shaped like they fit into the motorcycle seat's grips formed on her hands. This was followed by a transparent colored piece of glass that went over one eye and was connected to a small device that fit partially over one of her new ears.
"Pilot updating complete. Thank you for downloading this upgrade and conforming to this zones norm. Have a nice day!"
"Hunny are you okay?" A holographic face of an anthromorphic fox appeared on one of the screens as an eletronic eye zoomed in on her.
"I'm, I'm fine dear, I just feeling a little disoriented that's all . . ." Carrie said sounding surprise at the sound and accent of her own voice.
That was when the cockpit rocked and Carrie fell onto the motorcycle seat and gripped the controls, and she could feel JO-HN like he was a part of her own body, every inch of him, and could see in more directions than just the way he was looking thanks to sonar, radar, and other sensors.
And she let out a little boy scream knew instantly what had caused JO-HN to rock. There was a giant bug man, who also happened by chance to be three stories tall if a foot or so taller, right outside. It had red eyes, and black and purple carapace. It mindlessly roared at them. Anime characters below either screamed and ran or sat back to watch the battle between the giant mecha and the properly sized monster.
"What is this?!" Carrie exclaimed.
J0-HN observed, "Well CHIEKO, you are a mecha pilot, and this is Anime. And everyone knows that a mecha pilot always gets into their first battle within minutes of finding and entering their mecha."
"Ah crude." Carrie/Chieko cursed.
