Previously… in Kingdom Hearts: A New Age of Darkness
BGM: Organization XIII (Kingdom Hearts II)
"You will not stop the Legion of Darkness from achieving its ultimate goal." Orochimaru said.
"From what we know, they make Organization XIV and Xehanort look like child's play." Yukari told Worldwalker.
Golden Frieza chuckled. "My friends… let the darkness begin!"
"Wait, are we really doing a recap out of all of this?" Deadpool asked.
"Make your choice." Slade ordered.
"I choose… I choose… I CHOOSE GOOD!" Terra screamed.
"Prepare for justice!" Arceus shouted at Trigon.
"Blah blah blah, this happened… that happened… can we just get on with it already?" Deadpool asked.
"That explosion had Corruption all over it and it just so conveniently went inside you. If you use something like Dark Firaga, it'll get worse until you've become fully corrupted. You'll be unstable and you may accidentally hurt your friends until it gets to the point where you'll have to be knocked out to get it to stop… maybe even killed."
"NO! LIVE! I ORDER YOU TO LIVE!" Lelouch ordered, tears rolling down his cheeks.
"So, is it okay then, Lulu? …And as I'm reborn… I'll fall in love with you… over and over… I'll keep falling in love… with…" Shirley took her last breath and died.
"Regardless, what I want… IS TOMORROW!"
"KA! ME!"
"Do you guys hear that?" Nan asked.
"HA! ME!"
"Where's that coming from?" Flandre wondered.
"Three… two… one…" Worldwalker counted.
"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
"What about Sheila?" Hina asked.
"…I'm sorry, but… the Spartan got away before we could retrieve her." Samus responded with remorse.
"Well done, White Seed. Your mission is complete."
"Then what if I told you…that after Xehanort has been defeated and you had joined the Keyblade Masters…we came to your world and obliterated it?"
"What?!" Yuno exclaimed in horror.
"UNLIMITED COLORS HYPER BURNING COSMO BLAST… FIRE!"
"LET'S GO… AQUARIOOOOOOOOOOON!"
"Sugou?!" Asuna shouted.
"Your woman is quite something. I mean, she didn't want to tell you that I've come back from the dead and wanted to personally deal with me… but you know what? She couldn't do it… she was terrified. It gave me complete joy to watch her squirm!"
"It's unforgivable…" Kirito growled. "Do you realize what you've done to her?"
"Yes, I have. When I am done with you, Asuna will be all mine!"
"Sword Art Online Love!"
"Now this world shall know Pain… Almighty Push!"
"AVADA KEDAVRA!"
"I'LL SHOW THOSE LEGION FOOLS THAT I, REI RYGHTS, WILL TAKE DOWN YOU PATHETIC KEYBLADE WIELDERS AND YOUR FRIENDS!"
"Why are you stopping us?! She sent Voldemort to TORTURE US! We need to have our revenge!" Unversed Heart shouted.
"I've…become someone else…" Primal Heart sobbed.
"SHEILA!" Hina yelled.
"I know what you three are thinking. I'm just a monster in some clone suit." Echo muttered.
"How did you three find peace? I took away your parents… everything. You two… should be fragile girls… after what Voldemort and Kyoka did to you, becoming monsters from that HDD, having Cyber Koba turn you into mindless slaves, your Keyblade friend being taken by that Spartan…and having the Chaos Kin take Isaac's and Nan's souls away… I scarred you for life… I scarred ALL of you for life."
"See, that's the thing, Shen. Scars heal." Po told him. "Also, Voldewho?"
"We'll get over it."
"I HAVE CHORTLES! NOW DO YOU REALIZE WHO YOU ARE DEALING WITH?!"
"Shadow Queen, was it?" Dante aimed a gun at Shadow Marisa. "Release her right now."
"I'll never get out of this body… it screams… potential!"
"My parents… are Marisa and Dante?!" Souji exclaimed in shock.
"Apparently, I won this thing called the Smash Ballot." Bayonetta said.
"It is time for Camelot to move on from this wicked king…" King Arthur turned to Nan. "I pass the torch to you…"
"Gracia… I'm so sorry…" Hughes quietly said. "Elicia… remember daddy loves you… I'm sorry…"
"It's a terrible day for rain…" Mustang quietly said.
"It's not raining." Riza told him.
"Yes, it is…" A tear ran down his cheek.
"…So it is."
"That's enough!" Mustang growled. "You were stupid enough to confess…and even more stupid enough to boast! Every word you say was fuel to your funeral pyre! Let me begin…WITH BURNING OUT YOUR TONGUE!"
"AAAAAAAGH! WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU?! YOU DIDN'T EVEN HESITATE TO INCINERATE YOUR BEST FRIEND?!"
"Maes Hughes is dead, that's a fact! And you invoked his image; you must be a glutton for punishment!"
"…This is the perfect time!" Envy exclaimed after being insulted. "The ultimate opportunity! Hate and weep! Kill and be killed! Grovel in the dirt! How could you all team up…?! You're way on the point of kissing and making up! Right, Pipsqueak? Right Hawkeye? Mustang? Scar? Nan? Tristina? Isaac? Julia? Alex? …There's no way…! No, no you can't…! Never… Ever…! It's impossible! How could you?! How could you do it?! HOOOOOOOOW?!"
"Now I see… You're jealous. You're jealous of humans, aren't you?" Ed asked.
"It's the ultimate humiliation…! Goodbye… Edward Elric…"
"Cowardly bastard…" Nan muttered.
"HEAR ME, GOD! I DEMAND THAT YOU ANSWER THE CRY OF MY SOUL! COME TO ME!"
"Even now, you think you can stop me…? YOU'RE A FOOL, HOHENHEIM!"
"You speak of your precious pride that quality for your special name, but then you suddenly find yourself in great danger, and you seek to escape in the body of a human, a lower human form that you so despise. It's pathetic. You're a disgrace!"
"You were the chosen one! It was said that you'd destroy the Sith, not join them! Bring balance to the force, not leave it in darkness!"
"I HATE YOU!"
"You were my brother, Anakin… I loved you!"
"Don't compare me to Stark!"
"Aww, Junior… you're going to break your old man's heart."
"Um, this is awkward…" Data Sabrina muttered. "I'm not your real mother."
"Who are you?" Data Larxene asked.
"Ruby Rose, at your service!"
"AGH! What kind of scythe shoots out bullets?!"
"My scythe is also a customizable high-impact sniper rifle!"
"A wha…?"
"It's also a gun."
"I…I turned on you all… I… I… I'm sorry!"
"Weiss! Penny! You're here!"
"How is it they can just move forward without even having second thoughts? The Avengers, the heroes of Light… and those miserable monsters?"
"They're not monsters, Ultron. They're only human who went down a different path without even realizing it. They moved on and you just don't want to accept that no matter what you do, they won't be broken so easily."
"Leaving so soon?" Kyoka asked.
"Kyoka! What are you doing?!" Zeref exclaimed in horror.
"Open…gate of the Celestial King…!" Lucy sobbed.
"You're not really Deliora, aren't you? You're my old man…" Gray said.
"I wanted to avenge you and Mika, so I became an Ice Demon Slayer… wanting to destroy any demon in the way… Gray, do your old man a favor and kill me… I'm just a monster…"
"You're not a monster. I… I love you…!"
"Farewell, Gray…"
"I will destroy E.N.D…"
"Natsu, I have been inside of you all this time. And now… it's time for me to destroy Acnologia."
"IGNEEEEEEEL!"
"I wonder what'll happen… if poor little Zelda… lost her head!"
"You can take anything away from us, Kyoka…" Hina said. "Our senses, our guys… our sense of security… but there's something you can't take from us."
"Our light." Maria said. "And you can't also take away our willpower."
"Those are just words! Just empty words of NOTHING! YOU SHOULDN'T BE STANDING! YOU SHOULDN'T BE ABLE TO HEAR, SEE, OR ANYTHING ELSE! YOUR LIGHT SHOULD'VE BEEN EXTINGUISHED!"
"LET ME SEE YOU GRIT THOSE TEETH!" Ryu yelled. "SHORYUKEN!"
"We're not like you." Julia told Kyoka.
"BLAKE!" Ruby squealed and hugged her. "BLAKE, WE MISSED YOU SO MUCH!"
"G-gah! Get off!"
"The name's Douglas Jay Falcon… but everyone calls me Captain Falcon. What's yours?"
"Yang Xiao Long, but my friends call me Yang."
"FALCOOOOON…"
"YAAAAAANG…"
"PUNCH!"
"ZWEI!" Ruby and Weiss yelled.
"GET THAT MANGY MUTT AWAY FROM ME!" Blake yelled.
"Hey Hobbs, aren't you going to bring in the cavalry?"
"Woman… I am the cavalry."
"Grif, remind me to shoot you later, that was the worst flying of all time!"
"Well, excuse me, Sarge! At least we crashed into a ship instead of a meteor!"
"JNPR!" Ruby squealed.
"Someone else is here too… calling himself either John-117 or… Master Chief."
"CHIEF'S HERE?!" Hina squealed with delight.
"Believe it or not, I had a feeling we'd meet again before I went to go get Cortana in High Charity."
"KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!"
"WE'RE IN THE MIDDLE OF A FIGHT!"
"AND WE'RE IN THE MIDDLE OF A CONVERSATION, WHAT DON'T YOU GET ABOUT THAT?!"
"Sun!"
"Neptune!"
"Ladies!"
"Just so you know… I'm afraid of my own darkness."
"BULLSHIT!" Samus yelled.
"Why are you attempting to kill Isaac?!" Tristina growled.
"His darkness is getting out of hand! Let's not forget that he hurt you with his darkness!"
"YOU DON'T THINK HE DOESN'T KNOW THAT?! You're unbelievable… to think I looked up to you! Do you even BOTHER to THINK how anyone else will think if you just killed Isaac just like that?!"
"You stay away from Isaac and his family… and you'd better HOPE that Sabrina didn't know about what you tried to do… cause if she finds out… what she'd do to you will be far worse than what I would've done."
"I accepted the truth that you were once Anakin Skywalker, my father."
"That name no longer has any meaning to me."
"Then my father truly is dead."
"We would've changed the world."
"By killing innocent lives?!"
"Road to Dawn… I like the sound of that." Isaac said.
"You fool… you thought you could get rid of me? You can never get rid of the darkness, Isaac." Anti-Isaac smirked.
"Let's rock and roll!" Roll exclaimed.
"LET'S GO! AQUARION KINGDOM LOVE!"
"So, you decided to show up. Just so you know… I won't go down like all those other times. I WILL get Sheila back… Meta."
"Hello, Meta… remember me?" Shirley asked.
"If we were to die right here… would it be all for nothing… or for something else?"
"If I die, I plan on going out with a bang." Marisa said.
"WHAT?! Your guild is supposed to be disbanded! Why the hell are you grouped up once more?!"
"Let's just say we wanted to make an epic return…and I'm all fired up just thinking about it!"
"Hello, boys! I'm back!" Kefka said.
"HEY! No one uses an Independence Day reference but ME!" Deadpool declared.
"HEY, CLOWN BOY! INSTEAD OF FINISHING THEM OFF, HOW ABOUT WE FINISH YOU OFF INSTEAD?!"
"Who said that?! Show yourself!"
"FIRE DRAGON…ROOOOOOAR!"
"Say goodbye to your worthless existence!" Golden Frieza declared.
"You're in my world now and I have full control of it."
"What are you?!"
"Who am I? I am the Scarlet Devil Mansion's Head Maid… an assassin that gets the job done. Sakuya Izayoi, your worst nightmare!"
"Th-This c-can't… end like this…!"
"Oh, it's going to end… RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW!" Sabrina yelled.
The three women opened up their eyes. "FAIRY GLITTER!"
"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
"A Fairy Glitter Kamehameha attack?!" Cana exclaimed.
"You got spirit Red, but THIS is the real world! The real world…is cold! The real world…doesn't care about spirit! Ngh! You want to be a hero?! Then play the part and DIE like every other huntsman in history! As for me… I'm going to do what I do best… lie, steal, cheat… AND SURVIVE!"
"THIS COULD'VE BEEN OUR DAY, CAN'T YOU SEE THAT?!"
"I never wanted this! I wanted equality! I wanted peace!"
"What you WANT… is impossible! But I understand, because all I want…is you Blake…"
"She was right about you. Such arrogance."
"Still can't believe he did that…" Flash shook his head. "Whatever, he's got balls. I'll give him that."
"It's unfortunate that you were promised a power that was never truly yours. But take comfort in knowing that I will use it in ways you could never have imagined."
"…Do you believe in destiny?"
"Yes."
"This ends here, Cinder!" Sabrina declared.
"Take a good look, Sabrina! Your children are about to be the first ones to DIE… and there's nothing you can do about it!"
"My kids… d-die?!"
"That's right… There's nothing you can do about it. Now watch…as your loved ones will die… STARTING WITH YOUR DAUGHTER!"
"You BITCH… YOU THINK YOU CAN TAKE MY FAMILY AWAY FROM ME?!"
"Oh…my god…did I do all of this?"
"You feeling alright?" Erza asked.
"I… I was just protecting my family…right?"
"You were. You may have lost control of yourself… but you were only doing it to protect your family. And that guy is right; doing something out of revenge won't make things better. You're a good mother, Sabrina…and your family is lucky enough to have a mother like you."
"You invited me to join your cause with Mephiles… but I never actually agreed to it. Goodbye, Cinder."
"The Malevolent Seven?!" Professor Jacob shouted.
"The universe… will be no more!" Unicron declared.
End BGM
And now, back to your regular scheduled programming of Kingdom Hearts: Dawn of Chaos!
"Well, it's about time!" Deadpool exclaimed impatiently.
Whatever, at least we're here now, right?
"I guess…"
Anyway! Let's start the show!
A meteor went around the many different planets in some certain system or galaxy… or something, Solis Magna System, it was called I believe. Wait, is that what it's called?
"I'm holding a cue card to you, aren't I?"
Yep... and it's Solis Magna System. Anyway, the meteor soon made its way to its destination, the planet known as... Bara Magna?
"How many cue cards do you need?!"
I didn't ask you for cue cards!
Anyway, it crash landed in the ground, revealed to be a golden mask, it was the... Kanohi Ignika?
"We're gonna be here for a while, folks."
Anyway, the Kanohi Ignika, the Legendary Mask of Life, catching the attention of a scarab-like creature that looked like it was made out of Bionicle parts and organic parts.
This scarab creature was called a Scarabax Beetle.
It curiously looked at a mask in the epicenter of where the meteor landed and then it decided to call its friends, as more of them came to check it out… but a few of them went a different path and saw quite a lot of people lying on the ground, out cold.
These people just so happened to just a few of the Heroes of Light.
Deadpool, if you please!
"Do I have to?"
Yes, you have to.
"Let me just pull out the list here… alright! First off, we have the old Keyblade Wielders: Sabrina, Riku, Sora, Kairi, Aria, Terra and good ol' King Mickey!"
…Did you just call them old?
"Next we have the younger generation: Isaac, Tristina, Flare, Rose, Maria Jr. and Alex! Wait… you're not on this list?"
I come in later.
"Fair enough. We also have King Mickey's two friends! And my good ol' brother, Professor Jacob! We also got Team RWBY, JNPR and Penny in here! Let's see… ah, we got Latias and Latios. And Flare's fiancé, Flame!"
Uh-huh… and what else?
"We have Kirito, Asuna, Yui and Suguha. Locus, Emerald, Neo… Carolina, Sarge, Simmons, Tucker, Doc and Washington… the explosive happy Minene, the crazy yandere that is Yuno… we have Yuki and Nishijima, Mai and Makoto!"
Mhm…
"We have our favorite fire headed Dragon Slayer and his blue Exceed! We have Ansem the Wise, Youmu… strangely enough, Kimomaru… wait, why Kimomaru?"
You'll just have to find out.
"Is it because of the list right after that? People to come into this arc? Very clever!"
That's supposed to be a secret! Ignore that! Just keep reading the freaking list!
"Fine! We also have Rosa, N, Light, Horus… eh? How come Iris isn't in this one?"
Miscommunication, I suppose. Just keep reading.
"Okaaaay? We have the CPU Candidates here… and Mur Mur of all people. That's all the people here… but… I'm not noticing me in here."
That's because you're not in this arc.
"OH, YES I AM! I just scribbled my name on this list! Therefore, I'm in this arc!"
Hey! You can't do that!
"Yes, I can! I'M DEADPOOL!"
…Why I promoted you to 'second narrator' to help me out again, I'll never know…
"Last I checked, you asked me. You didn't promote me at all."
Oh, be quiet…
"Whatever. I'm in this arc now. Oh, we got some pets here! We got I-Rex, Gringott, Dragon Rex, Buckbeak, Tahtorak, Zwei, Kanohi Dragon, Frost, Jack the Monkey and Cotton's Parrot. I believe that's everyone. Can I tell them who's coming in this arc?"
Keep them in suspense! Just give me that list!
"No need to be grabby!"
Anyway, let's just resume the scene, shall we?
BGM: Reborn (Bionicle: The Legend Reborn)
While the beetles were checking them out, the mask suddenly made a shockwave, scaring all of them off, excluding that one Scarabax Beetle that was too intrigued of what was going on.
The Mask soon started to grow a body, arms, legs, blade-like things on his arms, he was a complete being at this point. A warrior clad in golden armor.
"Can we tell them the name?"
What did I say about 'keep them in suspense', Deadpool?
"Man, you're stubborn!"
End BGM
BGM: Walking (Bionicle: The Legend Reborn)
Yes, yes I am. Anyway, the warrior looked around, groaning a little and clumsily walked around as the Scarabax Beetle got closer, curious at this giant in front of it… and nearly got stepped on, but the warrior stopped his foot from crushing it.
"Sorry, little one." The warrior apologized and moved his foot away from crushing the little guy and stepped back a little. "You may have noticed that I am not steady on my feet yet."
The Scarabax seemed to communicate with the gigantic being in front of it.
The Bionicle knelt down. "I have the feeling you're trying to tell me something." He said and then gently moved his hand down, causing the Scarabax to flinch. "Easy, I will not hurt you." He promised as the beetle hopped up on his hand and crawled up his arm and to his shoulder, and then moved to the mask. "Ah, it's the mask you're interested in."
The beetle curiously poked the mask, causing it to glow and surprising them both… and then the Scarabax beetle quickly moved down to his hand and then turned into a shield. "Magnificent!" He exclaimed, then realized the shield had eyes. "Which… you can see… for yourself."
In that moment, a scorpion-like creature named… what was this creature called?
"A Vorox."
Thank you. A scorpion-like creature named a Vorox spotted them from up the cliff and then jumped off, but golden warrior spotted him and then jumped away from the stinger of the scorpion.
End BGM
BGM: Tension Rising (Kingdom Hearts II)
The Vorox roared at the golden warrior and he got ready to take it on, but then noticed in the corner of his mask… that the Heroes of Light were lying there unconscious. This also got the attention of the Vorox and it went straight for them for easy targets, but the Bionicle got in front of him, forcing the Vorax to attack him with its stinger, but the golden warrior blocked with his shield, which broke off the stinger in the process, forcing the Vorax to flee.
End BGM
The warrior sighed with relief, and then looked at the heroes, then noticing the shield glowing and turning back into the Scarabax Beetle, and he looked at the beetle in the palm of his hand. "Before this day, I never needed help from anyone or anything, thank you."
The beetle did a few clicks as if it was saying 'you're welcome' and then the Bionicle lowered his hand to the ground. "Well, I spared your life, you saved mine. Shall we call it even and go our separate ways?"
The beetle, however, refused and crawled up his shoulder. "I take that as a no." He said and then turned around to hear groaning from the heroes. "Shall we go check on them?" He asked as the Scarabax beetle agreed and walked over to them.
BGM: Riku (Kingdom Hearts II)
"Ugh…" Sabrina groaned and looked up at the sky. "Where am I…?" She wondered, looking at her side to see Rose and Maria Jr. groaning as well, then Isaac using Natsu as a support to help himself up, although Natsu seemed to still be knocked out, while Youmu got up and held on to her sword for support and Myon appeared and pushed her up a little.
She then heard footsteps and moved her head to see the golden warrior lowering his hand. "What… are you…?"
"A friend." He replied and took her hand, and then he helped up Rose and Maria Jr. as well.
"Gawrsh… where are we…?" Goofy rubbed his head.
"I have no idea…" Mickey muttered.
"You seem to just be lying there unconscious." He said as almost all of them looked at him… and by almost, I mean Natsu and Ruby were still knocked out cold.
"Who are you?" Sora asked.
"I am Mata Nui." He replied. "So… is someone going to wake your friends up?"
"Oh brother…" Mur Mur shook Natsu. "Hey, wake up!"
"Mmm… five more minutes, Igneel…" Natsu muttered in his sleep.
"No... that's my strawberry..." muttered a sleeping Ruby.
Donald's eye twitched and walked over to the sleepy Dragon Slayer… and screamed in his ear… loudly.
"YAAAAAAAAAAH!" Natsu screamed, bolting awake. "WHAT THE HELL, DONALD?!"
"Can we do that to Ruby?" Weiss asked.
"I got this." Yang said, walking over to her sleeping sister. "Whoa, there's a cool weapon that looks like a DJ and a gun, and can become a DJ sword!"
"Where?!" Ruby immediately woke up.
"And that's how you wake up Ruby."
"Well, that seemed to have worked." Mata Nui said and then noticed Professor Jacob. "Great Beings… Jacob, is that you?"
"Wait, you know each other?" Isaac asked.
"I've met Mata Nui a long time ago… 100,000 years ago, to be exact." Professor Jacob said.
"Say what now?!" Jaune asked.
"…Dude… you are OLD." Nora said.
Jacob laughed. "I guess I am. Though, I am surprised that you remembered me even though we met once."
"Who'd ever forget you? You're Professor freaking Jacob! No one can forget you at all!" Deadpool said, planting his hand on his shoulder.
"That's true." He chuckled.
"I've been meaning to ask. Are you really a professor or not?" Ruby asked.
"I may or may not be… you'll just have to figure that out for yourself."
"I don't think we have time for riddles… considering this massive headache I'm having right now…" Terra complained.
"You too?" Aria asked.
"So, Jacob… are you going to introduce me to your friends?"
"Of course."
One long introduction later…
"Now, have you guys noticed a very large robot in the Citadel when we got back?" Jacob asked.
"You mean the Transformer-like robot?" Sabrina asked.
"No, the other one, the 40,000,000 ft tall one to be exact."
"That other robot next to Vilgax?" Tristina asked.
"Bingo. That was the Great Spirit Robot currently inhabited by Makuta Teridax."
"So Teridax is in that thing?" Natsu asked. "Heh, he's probably just a small fry controlling that thing. He's probably the size of Ed!" He laughed.
"Well, I know what I'm doing when we get to him. Blowing a massive hole inside that robot and beat the crap out of him!" Sarge chuckled darkly.
"Excellent idea, sir!" Simmons praised.
"Of course it is!" Sarge grinned.
"Mata Nui was the original owner of the Great Spirit Robot as it was his original body that he was born in." Jacob told them.
"WHAT?!" Happy yelled.
"How is that even possible?!" Yang asked.
"He was created by mysterious being known as the Great Beings, I should also mention that Teridax is Mata Nui's brother."
"Great, family issues, just what we need right now." Tucker muttered.
"This is gonna be an awkward family reunion…" Flare quietly said.
Jacob chuckled at this. "Indeed, but it only gets crazier. You see, Mata Nui was given a mission by the great beings to observe alien societies before fulfilling his primary objective: to heal the fractured planet of Spheres Magna, the planet we're all on. However, during his mission he ended up ignoring the envoys that happened in his body, which lead to the Brotherhood of Makuta, which was lead under Teridax himself, he used a specialized virus to poison Mata Nui. The poison slowly weakened Mata Nui over three hundred years, eventually putting Mata Nui into an endless sleep for a thousand years ago, and crash landed on the blue moon orbiting this planet. The long time spent in a coma had caused Mata Nui's condition to worsen, and he was on the brink of death and he eventually died a year later after this due to the Matoran Universe being out of balance, but the Mask of Life brought him back to life, that was its purpose to revive Mata Nui in the events if he's ill or dead."
"Mask of Life? It wouldn't happen to be this mask that he's wearing, right?" Natsu asked, looking at him.
"Yes." Professor Jacob said. "Fast action by Toa Mahri Matoro at the cost of his own life revived Mata Nui's body before the Great Spirit was lost completely. Mata Nui attempted to reunite his spirit with his body, only for Makuta Teridax, who had inhabited the void left by Mata Nui's spirit, stole it from him. Teridax was later awakened in the Great Spirit Robot thanks to the effort of the legendary Toa Nuva and the Ignika itself, which became a Toa during these events temporary, using his new powers, Makuta trapped him in the Mask of Life and banished him from his body into the outer reaches of space."
"Wow…" Nepgear said in amazement.
"He's been traveling around in space for a very long time, only to recently crash on this very planet known as Bara Magna, which, coincidentally, we ended up on."
"So, we're basically in a Bionicle world." Sora said and then grinned. "Heheheh, sweet!"
"Oh no, he's going to fanboy about Bionicle…" Sabrina sighed.
"He did it before?" Terra asked.
Sora's a fan of Bionicle?" Isaac asked.
"You have NO idea." Sabrina muttered. "I always found his fanboying to be quite annoying."
"This coming from the woman who fangirls over everything." Isaac said. "That goes to Xarina and you as well, Aria!"
"I'm not as bad as her."
"Of course you are. Remember when we saved you?"
Aria sweatdropped. "I… I was getting it out of my system."
"Keep telling yourself that."
"Don't talk as if you're any different, Isaac. You fanboyed when you were at Harry Potter's world. We even had to knock you and the others on the head before you could fanboy over the Avengers." Minene said. "You're just as bad as Sabrina! ...No offense."
"Oh, it doesn't bother me." Sabrina chuckled.
"So, how did you guys get here?" Mata Nui asked.
"Well, we were originally battling over at Haven… and let me tell you, Sabrina and Aria kicked some major butt!" Ruby squealed. "I mean, I haven't seen HDD like that before!"
Sabrina tensed up, remember how that brutal beat down she gave Cinder, while Aria was basically chuckling, proud of what she did to Roman.
Is she uncomfortable with her HDD after what happened? Riku wondered, looking at his wife in concern.
"In fact, we won that battle and gained some new allies!" Ruby cheered, referring to Emerald, Neo and Locus… which the Blood Gulch Crew groaned when 'ally' was mentioned, because Locus is with them now. Yang still wasn't thrilled with Emerald and Neo just awkwardly rubbed her arm. "We came back to the Citadel where we were attacked by the Malevolent Seven and then BAM, we ended up here with huge migraines!"
"Well, that's one way to put it." Pyrrha said.
"Indeed." Kimomaru nodded.
"And considering you told us your story, we'll help you defeat Teridax!"
"Whoa whoa whoa, since when are WE going to help a defeat freaking robot thing, especially one that is a humongous giant?!" Weiss asked.
"Since now! Teridax is part of the Malevolent Seven, is he not?"
"She does have a point." Blake nodded.
"You can help me regain my body and save my people too who are currently enslaved." Mata Nui grinned. "I'm flattered." He said as he picked up the stinger from the Vorox's tail, acting like a sword. "For now, let's move."
"Do we know how to get there?" Uni asked.
"I'm sure we'll figure out a way." Mata Nui replied as they all walked ahead… only to be greeted by some vehicle, which had a driver in their who is colored white and blue.
End BGM
The vehicle… er… what was it called?
"I'm telling ya, folks… we're gonna be here for a while."
Hey!
"Here's a cue card."
Thornatus… alright. The Thornatus rolled up to them and an unfamiliar Bionicle, who looked a bit different from the ones the group saw, aimed his weapon at them, forcing them to get on the defensive and summoning their weapons or powers. "State your business!" He ordered.
"We're travelers looking for the nearest city." Mata Nui told him.
The Bionicle laughed. "Well, you may as well start digging." He put away his sword. "Here on Bara Magna, you're bound to find the ruins of one or another." He said as Mata Nui raised an eyebrow at this… if he has eyebrows that is. "Heheh… that's a joke. Let me guess, not a big laugher?"
Natsu extinguished his flames. "What do you think?"
Tough crowd. He thought. "Right, to answer your question, the nearest village is Vulcanus. I got some business there if you want a ride, that is if you want to get captured by Bone Hunters or worse, Skrall."
"What are Bone Hunters and Skrall?" Mata Nui asked before anyone else could.
"No one you'd ever want to meet." The Bionicle then noticed the Scarabax on his shoulder. "Hey, you got a-" He reached for it, but Mata Nui readied his sword at him. "Hey, relax! You've got a filthy Scarabax on your back. I was trying to knock the disgusting thing off."
"Thanks, but I like him right where he is."
"Alright, whatever." He got back in his vehicle. "I'm Metus."
"I'm Mata Nui."
"And your friends?"
Another introduction later…
"I don't think I can hold all of you." He said, realizing how many people there are.
"Oh, don't worry… we have our own ways of transportation." Flare said, transforming into a dragon as everyone got into their own modes of transportation, although Riku wondered why Sabrina didn't get on I-Rex with him… probably because Rose and Maria Jr. wanted to ride with Metus and her motherly instinct kicked in and went right with them in case if they were to fall off and Jacob had the same thought.
"Well, alright… let's go!" Metus said as he drove off and the rest of them followed.
BGM: Peril (Halo 2)
"What happened here?" Mata Nui asked, looking around and seeing a humongous wasteland around them.
"Who knows? It's been like this as far back as anyone could remember." Metus replied. "But if I had to make a guess, I'd probably have to say it was-"
"Evil."
"I was going to say earthquake or even volcanic eruption, but 'evil' works." Metus said and then looked at them. "Not from around here, are you?"
"No."
"I figured. It's clear that you can fight if you can defeat a Vorox and there aren't many Agori who can do that."
How does he know about that? Riku wondered as I-Rex let out a deep throaty growl, not seeming to trust Metus. In fact, most of the pets were thinking the same thing.
"Agori?"
"Me! I'm an Agori. Although most aren't as good looking as I am." He said, chuckling… but all that did was everyone giving him more looks. "That's another joke."
Joke, my ass. Natsu thought.
"Truth is, we're just peaceful villagers trying to survive. Not like the Bone Hunters, cutthroats are still what we've got left, when they're not fighting the Skrall." He said, unaware of two menacing figures behind them, but when Ruby took a look from behind Bumblebee, Yang's motorcycle, she saw nothing as she shrugged and looked forward again.
End BGM
A few minutes later…
"Ah, good! It looks like we're just in time." Metus said as they drove in what appears to be an arena of some sort.
"For what?" Mata Nui asked.
"You'll see!" He said as they stopped and they all got out or hopped off or landed while Flare transformed back to normal.
"A part of me doesn't trust this guy…" Flare quietly said.
"What makes you say that?" Flame asked.
"Animal instinct." Flare said. "Apparently, you get that when you transform into a dragon."
"Duh. I get that all the time when I transform into a wolf." Tristina said. "And yet, I didn't transform into a wolf, but I don't trust him either." Must be a side effect or something.
"So I'm not the only one who doesn't trust him…" Kimomaru quietly mused, but thankfully, Metus didn't hear them.
"Back in the day, the village settled disputes the old fashioned way by destroying each other. Very messy… lot of clean up."
"Do they Settle it in Smash?" Deadpool asked, which made Metus give him a weird look. "What?"
"I don't know what you mean by that, but… no. We came up with another solution." He said as they walked closer and noticed two warriors battling to the death.
"You use your best warriors…for sport?!" Mata Nui asked.
"Not sport, problem solving! Much more honorable than by slaughtering each other and considerably more profitable!"
Profitable?! Youmu thought, using every ounce of her body not to just attack Metus right there. In fact, Natsu and Kirito had the same idea.
"Uh…not that I care or anything." He said as they kept on walking, although everyone seemed to be suspicious of Metus and saw the two warriors fighting. One was red and the other was white. "The red warrior, Ackar, used to be the greatest Glatorian in all of Bara Magna." He said as they kept walking, while Yang and Weiss had to pry Ruby away from the fighting, mostly because she was so fascinated by the weapons.
They soon came across some other fellow Agori. "Ah, Metus, good you're here! Look at Ackar and tell you he's dazed and numbered! I practically had to beg him to fight."
"Everyone, meet Raanu. He's the leader of this village. Raanu, these guys are new in town."
You sure this is a village? Uni wondered.
"Hmm… what do you guys think?" He asked, referring to Ackar.
Mata Nui studied him. "He fights without fear. That is a rare quality."
"You should see how Natsu fights." Happy chuckled.
"Heh, 'fear' ain't even in my vocabulary!" Natsu smirked.
"Not even hesitation." Sabrina teased as everyone but the Bionicle snickered while Natsu just glared at her.
"True enough." Raanu said, ignoring Sabrina's teasing of the dragon slayer. "But, he has lost his taste for battle and once a Glatorian loses heart, it's not long before he meets defeat and… must be banished. No doubt that is what Metus has brought you here for tonight." He said, causing Metus to gasp and everyone giving him a suspicious look.
"I don't understand." Mata Nui said.
Metus chuckled nervously. "Let's not get ahead of ourselves, Raanu. There's always time to find a first Glatorian to take Ackar's place. By the way, did I mention I recruit Glatorians?"
This guy is rubbing me the wrong way… Sabrina thought as they started to watch the battle and then Ackar managed to slash away Strakk's shield away from him, much to Strakk's horror.
"This red warrior fights with the courage of a true Toa…" Mata Nui said quietly.
"That red guy reminds me of a lot like Pyrrha!" Nora said.
"He does?" Pyrrha asked.
"Yep!"
Pyrrha studied the red warrior closely, trying to picture herself as the red warrior fighting Strakk. "…I… guess…?"
The battle still went on, but to their amazement, Ackar kicked Strakk to a rock, knocking him down and knocking his weapon down in the process, and then Ackar panted. "Concede." He ordered, pointing his sword to him. "Yield to me, and this goes no further."
"…Alright… you win…"
Ackar relaxed. "You leave with your honor intact… and I with your shield. My victory." He said as he knelt down to pick it up… however, Strakk quickly grabbed his axe and threw it at Ackar, knocking him straight to a rock and knocking him out.
"WHAT WAS THAT?!" Yang yelled, completely pissed off for what happened.
"Boo! BOOOOOO! Sore loser!" Ruby booed.
Sarge growled, reaching for his shotgun. "If there's one thing I hate more than insubordination… it's cheating!" He said, cocking his shotgun while Natsu growled in frustration as everyone else was surprised at what happened… while Aria looked like her blood was boiling, judging by her anger.
"You call that honor? He was clearly defeated!" Mata Nui said, completely furious.
"We're just Agori, we're not going to fight a Glatorian." Raanu said.
"If there's one thing I hate…" A fiery aura surrounded Aria. "It's people use cheap tricks like that!" She exclaimed.
"Anyone got any marshmallows?" Tucker asked.
"Rats… I forgot to bring them." Nora complained.
"Here you go!" Deadpool brought out a bag of marshmallows.
"AW YEAH!" She grinned.
"Don't eat them all at once." Ren muttered.
Mata Nui looked at Aria, then at the Scarabax Beetle on his shoulder as he nodded and then leapt into the stadium… and Aria seemed to follow. "Aww! Just when I grabbed a stick!" Nora complained.
"Aria!" Terra shouted before sighing. "Always jumping into things…"
"Reminds me of someone I know." Natsu said, glancing at Terra.
"…I don't know what you're talking about."
"I think you're referring to yourself." Happy said.
"Hey!"
"Interesting… no wonder he's so fond of that bug…" Metus mused, ignoring of what was happening next to him. "And that Aria girl transformed into a different warrior…and summoned a weapon. Fascinating…"
Strakk got ready to execute Ackar right there, only to be intercepted by Mata Nui and Fairy Heart. "Argh!" He growled and then glared at the two. "I'll cut you down for that, outsiders!"
BGM: Titania Dances (Fairy Tail 2014)
"We'll see about that!" Fairy Heart smirked.
Strakk proceeded to attack them, quickly seeming to overwhelm Mata Nui, but Fairy Heart blocked the attacks with her Keyblade easily while her other fist burst into flame and then used a Fire Dragon's Iron Fist attack, but Strakk quickly blocked it, which everyone seemed to notice. "Is that the best you can do?"
Fairy Heart growled and tried to sweep kick him, but Strakk jumped up. He jumped?! She thought as Strakk landed and then kicked her away, which she quickly Aerial Recovered and landed near Mata Nui as they both tried to retaliate on Strakk, but they couldn't help but notice that Fairy Heart to be a bit… sluggish.
"Mom's looks a bit… sluggish. She's not in her A game."
"Hmm…" Professor Jacob rubbed his chin in thought. "I have this feeling when Apocalypse teleported us to different worlds, his power might have sapped some of our strength in the process, which could explain our headaches."
"Dammit, that guy nerfed us!" Deadpool growled. "Now I understand how those Smash characters feel…"
"No wonder I feel like crap…" Natsu muttered.
"Will we get our full power back?" Happy asked.
"We will. They'll gradually come back."
"Now that you mention it, my headache seems to be lessening… but it's still agonizing." Yang muttered.
"I'm just glad he didn't sap all of our strength." Youmu sighed with relief.
Dammit! Why do I feel like I'm not in my A game?! Fairy Heart thought and then she was immediately struck down by Strakk after she unleashed a Sky Dragon's Roar, but was a bit slow.
"Aria!" Mata Nui exclaimed, only to be struck down as well.
End BGM
"Oh… there goes that…" Metus muttered.
"Aria!" Terra exclaimed, realizing that Strakk is about to execute them and he was about to get ready to jump in and save his wife, in fact, fangs were already forming in Tristina's mouth.
"Strakk! No! I'm your opponent!" Ackar shouted, trying to save them.
"You're next!" Strakk said and raised his axe up… only to hear a Pokeball being opened up and got sand in his face. "Argh!"
"Huh…?" Mata Nui wondered.
"Sandile?" Fairy Heart asked.
BGM: The Heart to Believe (Fairy Tail 2014)
"Sandile!" Sandile shouted, getting in front of Fairy Heart. "Sandile Sand!"
"He's saying that he won't allow that warrior to hurt Aria any longer." Latias translated.
Strakk happened to hear what Latias translated and laughed. "You? What good can you do, you little shrimp?"
"Sandile! Sand! Sand!"
"Protecting my master." Latias translated.
"Hmph! As if a little shrimp like you can stop me." Strakk said… only for Sandile to use Mud-Slap on the guy's face.
"Ooooh! In the eyes!" Ruby winced.
"Nice shot!" Natsu cheered.
"Go Sandile!" Happy cheered as well.
I have a bad feeling about this… Yuno thought.
Strakk growled, wiping the mud off of his mask. "You'll pay for that!" He growled and basically kicked Sandile to a rock.
"SANDILE!" Fairy Heart screamed.
"No!" Rosa shouted in horror.
"Alright, that's it…" N growled, pulling out one of his Pokeballs. "Hurting Pokemon… I will not stand for it!" He said, looking in the corner of his eye to see Sabrina looking mighty pissed off too, ready to go straight into the arena and beat the crap out of Strakk.
Sandile got up, seeming to be okay and he shook it off, and then went back to defend Fairy Heart, growling in the process. "You want more? Very well then!" He raised his axe up in the air. "We'll see if you can survive this!"
At this very moment, Mata Nui's mask glowed after the Vorox tail brushed it, right when Strakk lowered his axe to kill Sandile… and then suddenly, Mata Nui's sword went from a Vorox tail to an epic looking sword and he blocked the attack, surprising Strakk.
However, it was just getting started because Sandile let out a war cry… and then started glowing, much to the amazement of the others. "Is he transforming?" Ruby asked.
End BGM
"It's called Evolution… and I have a feeling that guy is going to have a really bad day." Sabrina smirked.
Sandile stopped glowing and looked like he got quite bigger… or should I call him… Krokorok?
"Krokorok!"
BGM: Battle! (Trainer Battle) (Super Smash Bros for Wii U/3DS)
"Krokorok…" Fairy Heart quietly said in amazement before snapping out of it and then turned back into Aria. "Alright, let's kick some ass!"
"Krok!" Krokorok nodded and then he and Mata Nui got ready to fight.
"What in the name of…?" Strakk wondered.
"Sand Tomb!" Aria ordered, as Krokorok smirked and then used it on Strakk.
"Argh!"
"Now use Crunch!"
Strakk tried to move, but unfortunately, he was stuck… and then got bitten. "AAARGH!"
"All yours." Aria said.
"Thanks." Mata Nui said and then ran over and slashed Strakk, knocking him out of the Sand Tomb and knocking him down for the count.
End BGM
"…Whoa…" Weiss said.
"That sword… THAT LOOKS SO EPIC!" Ruby drooled over the sight of the sword. "I want to touch it!" She said as she was trying to go for it, but Yang had to hold her down. "Agh! You're no fun!"
"Krokorok, eh…?" Rose wondered, pulling something out of her backpack. "Let's see… where is it… aha!" She pulled out a Pokedex. "Gotta love birthday presents." She giggled which made Sabrina smile and then she looked directly at Krokorok.
The Pokedex spoke.
"Krokorok, the Desert Croc Pokémon, and the evolved form of Sandile. The special membrane covering its eyes can sense the heat in objects, so it can see its surroundings, even in darkness. "
"Wow… that's cool!" Nepgear said.
"Yeah… but what is a membrane?" Rose wondered.
"Concede!" Mata Nui ordered, pointing his sword at him.
"Fine…" Strakk mumbled.
"FOR ALL TO HEAR!" He yelled.
"I… CONCEDE!" Strakk yelled, as everyone cheered and some of the Agori wondered where those two came from.
Mata Nui pulled his sword away and Ackar walked forward, and then Strakk tried to reach for his axe, only for Krokorok's foot to step on it and folded his arms, giving him a sly smirk in the process. "I wouldn't do that." Aria said.
Strakk growled as he got up and proceeded to walk away and then Ackar brought up the ice sword that he had on him. "Your victory… your shield." He said, looking at Mata Nui.
"You won honorably. The prize of victory is yours."
"Oh… well, what about you?" He asked, looking at Aria.
"Sorry, but I don't do shields." Aria told him.
"Fair enough… in that case…" He tossed the shield away. "I got plenty of shields." He told them and then noticed all the Agori not even cheering. "Ah, how quickly they forget… I'm already an outcast."
"It's never too late to win them back." Mata Nui said.
"Eh, perhaps… I am in your debt, you two." He said, which made Aria blush a little as they noticed everyone walking up to them, which then Ackar invited all of them to his home… and when they got to his home, they noticed he had tons of shields on his wall.
"Holy mother of shields, Batman…" Sora muttered.
"You said it." Kairi nodded.
"Why'd you bring Batman into this?" Natsu wondered.
"You won all these?" Mata Nui asked.
"Yes, and look what good they do me." Ackar said. "Should've packed it in long before this…" He muttered.
"But you stayed. Why?"
"Duty. Pride. When a Glatorian is past his prime, he's no good to anyone."
"To be defeated without a fight, would be dishonor. You carry this truth inside you as I do. You are a true Toa."
"Toa?" Ackar wondered.
"Mata Nui!" Metus's voice caught their attention. "You were brilliant! Same with your organic friend, but you were the star of the show!"
Organic? Aria thought, not sure what to think of that.
"Raanu will pay anything we ask and if you don't like this village, no problem! I can get the other leaders to bid for you!"
"That is very kind, but no."
Metus gave out of somewhat of a shocked laugh. (If that's even a thing) "Are you crazy?! Do you realize what you're passing up? The life of a first Glatorian!"
"Oh yes! Look how it worked out for me." Ackar said sarcastically and walked away, making some of the Heroes feel bad for him.
"The answer is still no."
"Okay, okay, but if you still change your mind…"
"I will not."
"Playing hard to get, I can respect that. Sooner or later, you'll come around begging me to take you back!"
Sabrina lightly growled… and subconsciously, she transformed into Nightmare Heart and summoned Nightmare Freddy to scare him off.
"Aaah!" He jumped as Nightmare Freddy growled deeply at him. "Okay, okay… that was a joke! You don't beg!" He said and took off running, not wanting to be torn to pieces by the animatronic.
"Whoa ho ho! That's one way to get rid of him!" Natsu said. "I was about to fire punch the day lights out of him."
"I was thinking of drop kicking him." Kirito said.
"Oh! We could've fed him to I-Rex!" Happy said as I-Rex gave him a look as everyone laughed at this… everyone but Sabrina that is.
She realized that she unintentionally transformed into Nightmare Heart and changed back, as Nightmare Freddy disappeared as well. She shuddered, hugging herself for what she did, flashing back to what happened.
Riku, Isaac, Rose, Maria Jr, Minene and Yuno saw her hugging herself and grew concerned and walked over to Sabrina, although Rose's face seemed to have returned to its natural color. "Hey, you feeling alright?" Riku asked.
"Y-yeah… I'm fine." Sabrina said. Did I… subconsciously call up my HDD?
"Still not too thrilled with that, aren't you?" Minene asked.
"No… not really." Sabrina muttered. "I… I just need a moment to myself…" She said, walking out as everyone saw her walking out, as most of them grew concerned but Mata Nui and Ackar didn't understand why she suddenly needed some time alone.
"Mommy…" Rose quietly said as she tried to go after her, but Isaac grabbed her arm.
"Just let her be. Honestly, I think I know what she's going through." He said, flashing back to his episodes when his darkness corrupted him.
Riku debated whether or not to go after her. A part of him wanted her to be by herself, but another part of him just nagged him to go after her to see if she's alright.
Oh, to hell with it.
"I'll be right back." Riku said and went after her.
"Hey, I'll come with you." Sora said.
"No, stay here."
"She's my sister. I know when my sister is bothered." He said.
"I know that, but sometimes it's better when the spouse checks on their loved one." Riku said, walking away.
"He's got a point." Kairi said.
"Unfortunately…" Sora muttered, sighing to himself. He made a mental note to check on his sister later.
"So… what are your plans...?" Ackar asked, trying to get out of the awkward silence.
"I'll begin searching for a way back to my homeland." Mata Nui said.
"Which is…?"
"You will think it sounds crazy…"
"Well, no crazier than jumping into the arena armed with only a tail, a, human you call them? and… that thing." He said, pointing to the Scarabax Beetle, which it 'clicked' a few times in response.
"True… my home is far from this place. On another world entirely."
"Huh?" He looked at him in surprise.
"I was once a protector, until I lost everything to a powerful evil that has enslaved my people. That is why I must find a way back."
It was nothing but dead silence for a few seconds… until…
"I KNEW IT!" A voice suddenly yelled, forcing the Heroes to get in the defensive again while they all looked surprised at the same time. This blue Glatorian girl also seemed to fangirl. "Proof! Proof of what I've been saying for years!"
"Kina!" Ackar exclaimed. "This is not the place!"
Kina got close to him. "But I was right!"
"Who is this?" Mata Nui asked as they all got ready to fight her.
"Wait, no!" Ackar tried to stop them. "She's-"
"Name's Kina, a Glatorian. One of the best, and you just won me a lot of bets!" She said, which earned a lot of sweatdrops.
This girl's nuts… Weiss thought.
I have a feeling we are DEFINITELY going to get along! Nora had her usual grin on her face.
"'Kina's delusional, there's no such thing as other worlds'!" Kina said in a mocking voice. "Yeah well, he proves it!" She said. "…Actually, all of you prove it, but still! Wahoo!"
"I like this girl." Nora said.
"Of course you do…" Ren muttered. It was bad enough that Nora was completely wild in the team, and now there's a wild Glatorian that really reminds him of Nora. It was also bad enough she was dancing… badly.
"Uh… she's okay." Ackar said. "Although, I don't always agree with her… uh… methods… such as lurking in the shadows!"
Like me? Blake wondered.
"As Glatorian go, Kina ranks."
"I was right! I was right!" Kina did a celebration walk around the room, twirling her weapon around as if it was a marching band baton or something.
"I trust her with my life."
"Good to meet you, Kina. I have recently discovered what a great gift it is to find someone you can truly trust." Mata Nui said, glancing at the Scarabax Beetle and the Heroes, as the beetle 'clicked' a few times in agreement.
Kina noticed the beetle. "Ugh!" She exclaimed in disgust. "So what they're saying is true?" She asked Ackar who nodded. "Let me guess!" She got reaaally close to Mata Nui. "You call him Click." The Beetle 'clicked' at her in offense. "Hey! I was only kidding."
However, Mata Nui thought it was a good name. "I like it. Click it is." The beetle, or Click, clicked in agreement.
"Wow…" Kina walked around the Heroes of Light. "Real other worlders… Finally, someone who can convince the Agori there's a place better than this miserable wasteland!"
"They need our help, Kina. And I owe a few of them." Ackar said, which made Aria blush again.
"Help, huh? I might be able to do something for you. But I'm going to want something in return." She said, looking directly at Mata Nui. "I want out of this dump! You have to take me with you!"
"Kina!"
"It's alright. If it's within my power, I'll help you. But the time to help my people is running out."
"No problem! I work fast!"
"What do you have in mind, Kina?" Ackar asked.
"Well, I discovered an enormous cavern under my village. It's filled with weird ancient equipment and tools. It might have something you can use. Word of warning, though. Don't even think about pulling a fast one, because you're my ticket out of here!"
Everyone sweatdropped again. "She really wants out of here, doesn't she?" Suguha asked.
"Definitely." Natsu nodded.
Meanwhile, with Sabrina…
BGM: Kairi III (Kingdom Hearts)
Sabrina sat down on a rock, wanting to be alone, completely unaware of Riku spying on her and thinking about what she had done to Cinder, thinking about how she became Nightmare Heart.
She was just only protecting her family, right?
...Right?
Sabrina sighed, not sure what to do... looking at her hands, haunted by the blood that was on her hands.
She'd actually never go through with killing someone, right?
Then again, she did kill Sugou that one time in Radiant Garden, but that was just because she was just trying to protect Asuna... and Asuna delivered the fatal blow after Sugou shot her in the shoulder, so... it was justified, right? After all, Sugou was probably the most hated person in Sword Art Online...
Sugou's death never bothered her... so why was Cinder bothering her?
Was it because she felt the need to protect her family?
Or was it because she really hated Cinder for executing Pyrrha?
Maybe it was because she wanted to protect her family...
She wouldn't go so far to kill someone to protect the family she loves...
Right?
After all, Erza did say this: "You may have lost control of yourself... but you were only doing it to protect your family. And that guy is right; doing something out of revenge won't make things better. You're a good mother, Sabrina... and your family is lucky enough to have a mother like you."
Erza did have a point there.
But... why couldn't she get over this?
She basically lost herself in her own rage and brutalized Cinder after she attempted to remove everything she held dear to her out of her life. This was far worse than when she went Anti-form and beat the living hell out of Sugou... luckily Sora and Latias calmed her before things got a whole lot worse.
But she didn't do it alone... she had the Nightmare animatronics helping her.
Why would she have them help her?
She got over her fear after Maleficent threw a Grand Star in Fazbear Pizzeria and Minene convinced her to save Youmu, right?
...
Then again, she couldn't help but feel terrified after seeing Springtrap behind the TV screen when she was pregnant.
And she was almost killed by Nightmare hadn't Isaac stepped in to save her.
Not to mention she summoned Nightmare Freddy to scare away Metus.
And she also has Golden Freddy for her Summon Gem that Dyntos gave her that she hardly ever uses.
So perhaps she's still terrified of those animatronics...
But... she felt no fear when she had them help her beat the crap out of Cinder.
All she felt was boiled rage after Cinder threatened to kill her family.
What if she was more terrified of losing her family?
That could've been a possibility.
Still... she was just doing her job to protect her family... even if it meant going Mama Bear...
Surely, she wouldn't be afraid of her HDD, right?
Except, the blood on her hands continued to haunt her...
She nearly killed Cinder hadn't Locus stepped in and Erza and her family were comforting her.
She didn't want to be afraid of her HDD...
But she is.
Sabrina looked at a puddle in front of her as she looked at it and cautiously went into Nightmare Heart, looking at herself.
She couldn't recognize herself... but she knew it was still her.
She was still Sabrina, nothing would ever change that, no matter what.
Everyone still loves her for the way she is.
But... she didn't feel like it was her.
She quickly changed back and had a thought, and then went into Valor Form... she could easily recognize herself, even in Wisdom, Master, Final or Limit, it was still her.
But HDD?
That's a whole different story.
She turned back to normal and sighed deeply, going back to that rock that she sat on and just thought to herself.
Was HDD a good thing... or a bad thing?
She silently cursed to Dyntos that he gave her this cursed HDD... for there was one thing that crossed her mind.
She was afraid of her HDD... and afraid of losing control of herself like last time.
And what if...
She lost herself again and no one was around to calm her down?
That was her biggest fear right there.
Losing herself to HDD.
A tear escaped her, but she didn't bother wiping it.
"…I know you're there…" She whispered, but loud enough for her husband to hear. "You don't have to hide."
Riku revealed himself and walked over to her. "You feeling alright?"
"…Yeah, I'm fine…"
"No, you're not… I can tell when my girl is bothered by something."
Sabrina sighed. "I'm just…afraid."
"Afraid of what?"
"My HDD. Why did Dyntos give me this? Did he think it was okay to just give it to me without realizing what I almost did to Cinder?"
Riku side hugged her. "You did scare everyone, though… but you were only protecting the ones who you love."
"I couldn't protect you when the Legion kidnapped us… I stood there, watching in horror as you were knocked out… I… I couldn't do anything…"
"Don't blame yourself for that. We were caught off-guard by that."
"You're right…I shouldn't…"
Riku gently put his hand on her leg. "You were just doing everything you could to protect our kids, and me."
"That's what I keep telling myself… but I… I don't know if someone will be there to calm me down next time I go into this… nightmare that's inside of me."
"You're worried that you'll lose yourself and no one will be around?"
"Yeah… I'm afraid I just… wouldn't be myself anymore." She said. "I remember seeing our son going full on rage when his darkness was still in him. I didn't want to be like him… I'm… I'm just afraid of the darkness… I don't want it to consume me…"
"Not when I'm around, it won't." Riku said, kissing her on the forehead. "You'll have me to protect you."
Sabrina lightly smiled. "Thanks." She said, kissing him. "Come on, let's go… everyone's probably worried about us."
"Right." Riku nodded and walked off with his wife, holding her hand.

At the camp site…
"Repeat that… what did you say?!" Natsu asked.
"I said this world lasts 36 hours a day." Jacob said. "So basically… we can have up to 12 hours of sleep."
"Alright, music to my ears!" Natsu exclaimed, covering himself up in the sleeping bag… and falling asleep. His roommates just so happened to be Happy, Youmu, JNPR, Kirito, Asuna and Yui.
"Question, does he snore?" Nora asked.
"He saws logs all the time." Happy said.
"Well, we're gonna have a fun night… not." Youmu muttered as she proceeded to wrap herself up in a blanket and laid right on top of Myon.
Sabrina and Riku came back and noticed a tent all to themselves as they heard moaning in the other tents as they looked to see Isaac, Tristina, Flare, Flame, Aria and Terra making out in the tents.
"I'd say get a room but they already have one." Riku said as Sabrina giggled at this and went in their tent and soon went to sleep with Sabrina pressing her face on Riku's chest.
However, it soon ended with Rose getting between them and smiling.
"Hi!"
"Oh, you silly girl." Sabrina giggled.
Rose giggled as well and soon fell asleep with her parents, as their tent was soon filled with Minene, Yuno, Yuki and Nishijima.
Outside…
"So, anyone want to tell any scary stories or not?" Ruby asked, as she was by the campfire with her team, Penny, Deadpool, Professor Jacob and Mur Mur, all having S'mores.
"Oh, I got a good one!" Deadpool grinned.
"Oh, this oughta be good. What is it?" Mur Mur asked.
"It's called… The Night of the Killer Wolverine! Based on a true story!" Deadpool grinned.
Here we go… Jacob chuckled.
"Ooo, this oughta be good!" Penny grinned.
"Once, there was a creature named Wolverine-"
Somewhere else in the universe…
"Hey! I wanted to finish my story!"
We'd be here all day if we did that. I'm cutting you off, Deadpool.
"…Buzzkill."
Anyway, a certain adorable spirit that is Mavis wandered around Magnolia, rubbing her head after waking up in said world.
Thoughts were entering her head, thinking about what had happened when she came back to the Citadel...
The Malevolent Seven attacked and sent everyone to random locations.
Mavis just so happened to land in Magnolia.
She kept wandering, wondering why this was happening... and then a thought entered her mind.
She needed someone powerful.
Last she checked... he didn't bother to come with Fairy Tail to Radiant Garden. But that was mainly because he way on one of his long journeys, so he didn't know.
It's high time for him to make a comeback.
She started walking and then thought of if Zeref would want to come along, wherever he might be... but she shook that thought out. Zeref wouldn't be a good choice.
After all... he was currently having plans of his own for Fiore.
After a while, she came across a lone man standing next to a pile of knocked out monsters. "It's good to have found you." Mavis smiled, happy that she had found the one she was looking for.
"Ah, the first master. What can I do for you?"
"I need your help. Have you heard of the Malevolent Seven?"
"No... why?" The man asked as Mavis explained everything. "Is that so? Those seven were powerful enough to send everyone to random worlds around the universe?"
"Yes. And I fear the universe will cease to exist if we don't put a stop to it."
"Very well. Glad to be of service." He chuckled.
Mavis smiled. "Thank you, Gildarts."
Gildarts smiled back. "Anytime."
"Now... I have a feeling where Sabrina might be at, but... I want to go to a different world first."
"What's that?"
Mavis smiled. "I want to bring a few CPUs along."
"CP... what?"
"I'll explain on the way." Mavis said and then opened a portal. "Let's go." She said and then walked in with Gildarts following.
Meanwhile, somewhere in space...
"Samus, This is Worldwalker, I'll keep an eye on Abby until you get back. Like she was my own daughter. Naga knows they hang out enough to be sisters... Anyway go clear your head and come back when you feel ready. See you later."
"...Play it again." Samus requested and then the message repeated.
She most likely had heard this for like a billion times already, but still... this seemed to have comforted her... even though she looked like an emotional wreck.
She also had tear-stained cheeks that she never bothered to clean up.
She wouldn't be like this if she wasn't so constantly angry against Isaac and his darkness...
She leaned back on her chair on the airship, looking out in the emptiness of space.
That's how she felt... empty.
Samus thought about how the time Tristina threatened to maul her, telling her to stay away from Isaac's family, not to mention what Sabrina would've done.
She was the one that tried to kill Isaac.
She was the one that tried to kill Hina.
Over what? Darkness and a simple split-personality?
It's not like she blamed them.
No, she blamed herself for always going for the worst-case scenario first instead of the best-case scenario.
Not to mention those words that stung her...
A poser.
A fake.
A psycho.
And worst of all...
To think I looked up to you...
This stung her greatly...
To everyone, Samus was like a great role model. Sure, she may be a stone cold bitch-no, she was never a stone cold bitch; that was just an act to mask her true self. She realized that now. But even if she was one, she'd never hurt her friends, right?
Ha. Friends... who was she kidding?
Who would ever be friends with a psycho like her?
Samus sighed, and pulled out her gun, looking at it.
Surely, no one would miss her if she were just to pull the trigger on herself, right?
No one would know.
Besides, if some Space Pirates were to find her, they'd just find a corpse inside of a ship.
She pointed the gun to herself, ready to pull the trigger, ready to end her life right there...
...But she couldn't.
She couldn't bring herself to pull the trigger.
She threw the gun to the side and tears ran down her cheeks again.
She missed everyone.
Her friends...
And most importantly...
Her family.
She remembered how she and Abby quickly bonded, how she tried to help Isaac not lose control of himself until his episode in the Datascape.
Then she grew increasingly hostile towards him.
She tried to apologize to him when they got back to the Citadel, but Tristina wouldn't let her... she would constantly growl at her every time she made an attempt.
And when Hina-Tex outright called her out... she just gave up.
Samus looked at her gun again before thinking of Isaac once more.
Isaac.
Isaac...
She contemplated about him, putting her hands on the controls... wanting to go to apologize to him...
But what if Tristina would give her a threatening growl again?
What if they rescued their parents and Sabrina was with Isaac?
What if Sabrina would go all mama bear on her?
...To hell with it.
It was a risk she was willing to take.
It'd make her feel a lot better if she were to apologize to Isaac.
And Hina...
But she'd worry about Hina later.
Isaac is the most important one.
And if Tristina and Sabrina mauled her...
Then so be it.
"Locate Isaac." She requested and then her GPS located Isaac.
Bara Magna in the Solis Magna System?
She then saw who was with Isaac.
Tristina and Sabrina.
Samus growled. She was risking her life just to apologize to a boy that she tried to kill...
But dammit all, she had to do this.
"I'm going there... whether those two like it or not." She said and then immediately took off.
I know what you're thinking. "What about Touhou: Dream Team?"
I'm gonna put your answers to rest: That'll be AFTER this story.
So, there's good news on the horizon! :D
Anyway, hope you like the first chapter, because it's gonna get insane from here on out.
