Complete and utter ruin spread around the land.
What was once a vibrant city was now total devastation, with ruined buildings scattered with no rhyme or reason.
In the center, a man wearing black knight armor was on one knee, being encircled by seven other beings, each with their own quirks. What was common about the seven, however, was that each gave off an eerie sense of evil.
"Ugh, I am not going down without a fight!" shouted the Black Knight.
"Really now, you should give up now. There's no chance of you succeeding," the Nearly Nude Dude smirked.
"How the hell did you even survive that damn long? Whatever, with this, it's our victory," growled the Cunning Glasses Man.
"Tch, I'll have to use my secret move then…" The Black Knight stood up and started to gather up his remaining energy, concentrating all of that into his hand.
"Watch out everyone! He's going to use a EXE Drive! Prepare yourself!" The Gangly Man with a Loud Voice shouted...with a loud voice. The seven took their battle stances.
"[Variant Form: Dimensional Teleport]!" A portal opened under the Black Knight, making him fall. With a parting cry, he yelled, "Dammit, I'll come back and free you all from the darkness! Just you wait!"
On that parting note, he disappeared.
In another dimension…
"Is this enough Dogoos that the person wanted ?" Pink Haired Airhead asked Girl with a Leafy Bow.
"Almost. One escaped into the clearing over there. Let's defeat it and head home."
They walked to the clearing, with the Dogoo waiting ominously at the far end of the field.
"Hey, Iffy, do you see that shooting star over there?" Pink Haired Airhead pointed to a fast moving object in the sky.
Girl with a Leafy Bow, now denoted as Iffy, replied "Yep. That reminds me of the first time you met Nep. You told me that she fell from Celestia, and made a huge hole in the ground when she hit it. Right Compa?"
"Yeppers! I hope we can have another adventure that like soon!" Pink Haired Airhead, now Compa.
"I hope so too, but not that quick." Iffy wryly smiled.
"Shooting star, I wish we can have another adventure just like the one with Nep-Nep." Compa closed her eyes and made a praying gesture.
After Compa was done praying, the two finally made it to the last Dogoo.
"I'll end this quick. (La Delph-)" Before Iffy could finish her chant, the Dogoo was stomped on by an enormous dragon claw. Iffy and Compa slowly looked up to see an Ancient Dragon.
"Iffy, this looks scary…" Compa murmured with a pale face.
"Don't worry Compa, we'll get out of this." Iffy reassured her shaking companion. "Let's both use our [EXE Drives] to defeat it."
"Roger! [Bread Crumbs]!" "[Apocalypse Nova]!
The Ancient Dragon was immediately pelted with lasers from Compa's syringe-created heart and Iffy's needles. To top it off, Compa kissed in its direction, resulting in a bigger laser blasting through. Iffy, however, had jumped extremely high up, and was falling toward the Ancient Dragon. She slammed it into the ground, creating dust everywhere, and hopped back to Compa's side.
"Did we get it?" Compa and Iffy were panting heavily, desperately hoping.
But to no avail.
"Roaaaaar!" The Ancient Dragon stomped the ground, then proceeded to breathe fire at the two. Somehow, they were knocked back into the outer edge of the clearing. Compa hit a tree, while Iffy skidded
"Ugh, is this our end?" Iffy muttered.
"Wait, do you see that? The shooting star is getting closer." Compa pointed at the shooting star again. Indeed, the shooting star was getting dangerously close. And it was heading straight for her!
"Damn, Compa, look out!" Iffy ran towards the nurse, grabbed her, and dove away from the shooting star. It missed by mere millimeters.
Booooom! The star made a massive explosion colliding with the ground. Smoke settled onto the plains.
However, the dragon paid no heed to the intrusion. It wanted the flesh of the two young girls who attacked it. It also sensed that the girls were injured from its flame breath and the comet's landing, so it took one giant step towards them, confident of its victory. Unknowingly, it also stepped on said shooting star that had happened on the battlefield.
Compa buried her face into her companion's arms, while Iffy simply closed her eyes and waited.
However, what all three failed to realize was that the shooting star wasn't a shooting star.
It was a groggy knight that had flown through time and space in order to make it to another dimension. Said knight was not happy, as the knight had built a lot of stress up prior to its escape. What's more, the trip had not been pleasant, with the utter boredom it had to experience.
Thus, when an idiotic Ancient Dragon stomped on him, he wasn't having any of that.
"Raaaagh!" The Ancient Dragon looked down at the source of the voice, and saw that its entire foot had been sliced off. It backed off, but toppled down, crashing into the plains. Emerging from the smoke was a Black Knight, eyes glowing red.
"You sure have a lot of guts to be stomping on me. Let me return the favor." The dragon couldn't see it, but felt that the Knight was smiling darkly.

"Raaawwrr!" The Ancient Dragon attempted to intimidate the Black Knight, but he just started to walk towards the downed dragon.
"(Summon: Greatsword)," a black greatsword with red, almost demonic, markings appeared in his two outstretched gauntlets, where it promptly dropped. Dragging the heavy sword across the ground, the Black Knight stared at the Ancient Dragon.
The Ancient Dragon shuddered, feeling what no monster should have: fear. Like a cornered rat, it flailed and blew fire, hoping in some way to dissuade the monster walking towards it.
But.
{Anger Bar: Exceed}
Slice! The dragon's head flew into the night air before it, along with its body, began to disintegrate into data. Moving at speeds too fast for the mind to comprehend, the Black Knight had swiftly dashed above the body, then to the head and cut through in one massive stroke.
Iffy witnessed the entire spectacle. Compa didn't see it due to her looking the other way, but she nonetheless heard it. They trembled in fear as the Black Knight stood, gazing at the remains.
{Anger Bar: 0%}
The Black Knight suddenly collapsed, passing out and falling to the ground. Light started to envelop around the Black Knight. Armor disappeared slowly,starting from the hands, helm, and boots, ending at the chest. The sword also disappeared.
When the light faded, Iffy could make out the features. The Black Knight had long black hair. The height was comparable to Lady Green Heart. The face was a little girlish, with no blemishes. The entire build made the Black Knight seem like a tall, slender girl. Two armbands, one black and one red, were on her right hand, and she was wearing a red shirt with a loose black jacket and black jeans. The jacket had red symbols on the back that looked like different blades.
"Compa, you can look now. It's safe." Iffy nudged the nurse, who looked up from the embrace.
"Is that who saved us?" Compa pointed to the Black Knight.
"Yep. Let's take her with us. We need to help her, at least." Iffy walked over to the Black Knight and used her arms to carry her on her back.
"Let's go." Iffy started to walk to the direction of Compa's house. Compa looked up to the moon, muttering "I hope this will lead to a new adventure." Then she ran after her companion.
