YEAH THAT'S RIGHT, I'M EDITING THIS PIECE OF CRAP.
*Ahem* Anyways, welcome to the story thing! New reader? Well, you get the pleasure to read this for the first time. Old reader? Well, you get the pleasure of reading the cleaner edition of this! Yes, we even have new headers, footers, and author notes!
Everyone: YAY!
So, I don't own most of this story. Anything associated with Xalcus I own. The following series I do not own:
Super Mario Bros.
Sonic The Hedgehog
Legend of Zelda
Kirby
Kingdom Hearts
Detective Conan/Magic Kaito
Fairy Tail
KuroShitsuji
Pokemon
Death Note
Leven Thumps
One Piece
Danny Phantom
Bobobo-Bo bo-bobo
Pikmin
Artemis Fowl
Yes, I plan to work at least cameos of ALL of these series. Everything before Pokemon is guaranteed to be in this story. The other series only make cameos and may switch as I continue to write this (mainly Death Note or Bobobo-Bo bo-bobo, everything else is set in stone). So, if you see something you like, stay tuned~!
P.S.: This is actually the order they will be introduced. XD First eight in this chapter, next eight in four and beyond.
Also, some of the timeline may not be "up-to-date" so just bare with me. This story is really old.
Lastly, POSSIBLE SPOIIIIILERRRRRRS! That is all.
AND SO, THE STORY BEGINS . . .
Space. Life's greatest mystery. Each universe is distinct as well as every world. Each dimension could look fairly similar yet be so different. But how many people have lived to know about all of this?
Within a certain universe, there was a small, blue and green planet. For billions of years, the so-called "intelligent life" that existed on this particular planet believed this planet was the only planet that could support life. And for billions of years, these people were completely wrong.
Within this universe, there was another small planet that would appear black and white if it was actually visible. This small planet was known as Xalcus and sustained life with no problems. But why was this planet able to do this?
Inside the core of this planet was a spherical room that housed a single soul filled with darkness and hatred, for this soul was trapped here for eternity, only able to control the instincts of his creations back on the surface.
But this soul had learned to be patient over the last hundred billion years. It would have its revenge, even if it had to wait an eternity to obtain it.
And so, it manipulated its shadows to travel through time and space, doing everything it could to become free once more . . .

"MAIL CALL!"
Luigi walked out of the house and went over to the mailbox. He took out the letter that had just been stuck inside and brought it back into his home.
"Hey, Mario, we got some mail from the Princess."
Mario looked up from his newspaper with the heading 'KOOPA KING VANISHES?' and turned his focus to his younger brother.
"Hey, Luigi, this says Bowser has vanished from the Mushroom Kingdom! Even his minions can't find him!"
"Eh? Really?" Luigi placed the letter on the table and looked at the newspaper Mario was holding.
TOAD TOWN NEWS
KOOPA KING VANISHES?
Today, the residents of Toad Town claimed to see the brute's minions walking aimlessly through the town. When we approached one of them, they said their king has mysteriously vanished one morning and hasn't returned since. Are our King Koopa troubles over or is our villain planning his next strike? Watch for our next issue for more detail!
The Mario Brothers stared at the newspaper in disbelief. Was Bowser truly out of their lives? As they stood there, bamboozled, they didn't notice dark shadows weaving through the floorboards and filling the room . . .

Sonic The Hedgehog raced through a loop in Green Hill Zone. His best friend Tails had just rebuilt his plane, the Cyclone, and had discovered how to use even more of the Chaos Emerald's energy to power it. He had agreed to come help him test it out.
As he began to near Tails' workshop, a red blur came speeding towards him. Sonic did a backflip out of the way as Knuckles the Echidna stopped in front of him.
"All right, Sonic. I know you stole the Master Emerald, hand it over."
Sonic rolled his eyes. "What? Knuckles, did Eggman trick you again?"
Knuckles raised his fists, ready to use force if necessary. "First off, I was NOT tricked! Second, I haven't seen Eggman in days."
"Then who told you?"
"None of your business!"
Knuckles dashed at Sonic and tried to punch him. Sonic leaped out of the way, not having the patience to deal with his gullible friend.
"Sorry, Knucklehead, no time to fight with you right now. I promised to meet with Tails to test his new plane."
"Hey, get back here!"
Sonic ran as fast as he could, leaving Knuckles far behind him. He skidded to a stop right in front of an orange two-tailed fox about five seconds later, who seemed to be putting the finishing touches a plane.
"Hey Tails! You done the plane?"
Tails looked over at Sonic and smiled. "Yeah! It should fly much better than before now!"
Sonic looked at the plane. It looked almost exactly like before. Painted blue with two orange tails painted on the side.
"So it's supposed to fly faster than before?"
"Yup! It may look the same on the outside but on the inside is an improved engine to enhance the energy of the Chaos Emerald. You see, all I had to do was-"
"Yeah, you did great, how about we test it now?" The blue blur said, not wanting to hear Tails's techno-babble. His friend's explanations always made his head hurt.
"Alright. Let me just make sure everything is in perfect condition," Tails said as he walked to the front of the plane. He stopped and his eyes widened once he noticed the propeller area.
"Something wrong?" asked Sonic, walking over beside him. Inside the emerald-shaped glass casing in the middle of the propeller was a black smoky substance and no visible Chaos Emerald.
"Um . . . Is it supposed to be like tha-"
Before Sonic could finish his sentence, the glass casing started cracking and shattered, letting out the black smoke. The smoke began to spread and cover the area, causing Sonic and Tails to start coughing uncontrollably as their bodies went numb. Before they could do anything else, the two of them blacked out.

Link walked up the steps of Hyrule Castle, the guards letting him pass by. After the umpteenth time of saving the land of Hyrule, the blond Hylian hero in green needed a break. He decided visiting Princess Zelda would be a good idea for now. Besides, there wasn't much else to do until he was needed again.
Link walked through the many corridors and rooms. Guards were placed here and there but something felt different. Link didn't know what it was but something was just . . . Off.
Link shook off the feeling and continued to walk. This was silly, there's nothing wrong. He must've been too used to the hero business.
The hero in green walked into the throne room. Now he knew what felt wrong.
It was empty.
No guards, no Zelda. The only thing off was a note resting on the throne.
Link started to walk over to the throne where the note sat. As he reached out to grab the note, a shadowy hand shot out of the ground and grabbed Link's arm. He struggled, completely weaponless since he had returned the Master Sword to its pedestal. More hands shot out of the ground and slowly began to pull Link under, forcing him into unconsciousness.

It was snack time in Dream Land and Kirby was getting ready to eat a strawberry cake. It had been lazy days lately for the eight inch tall pink puffball.
Almost too lazy.
But Kirby didn't care. He could eat his cake in peace and that's all that mattered!
Before Kirby could take a bite of the cake, a small pink haired fairy in red clothes - about two thirds the size of Kirby - flew over to him. Kirby recognized it as his friend Ribbon. She gestured for him to follow, seeming to be freaking out a bit over something. Kirby quickly inhaled his cake and ran after her.
The two ended up deep in the forest. Ribbon stopped flying and looked ahead. Kirby stopped too, confused. He looked around. Nothing seemed to be wrong.
Ribbon slowly turned around and looked at Kirby. Her eyes were black and she had a grin on her face. Before Kirby could react, she exploded into shadows which grabbed Kirby and pulled him under the surface of the planet.

"Nothing's changed, huh?"
"Nope. Nothing will."
"What a small world."
"But part of one that's much bigger."
"Yeah."
". . . Hey Riku . . . what do think it was - the door to the light?"
"This."
"This?"
"Yeah. It's always closer than you think."
"Sora! Riku!"
"Hey, what's up?"
"Look."
"From the King?"
Sora reread the letter that Kairi found in the bottle. King Mickey has actually made contact with them! It seemed like just yesterday him and Riku saw the light that brought them back to Destiny Islands.
Speaking of which, where were Riku and Kairi? Sora sat up and looked around. He had been lying on the beach for awhile and it began to seem odd to him. But why? Was it because of how peaceful it seemed?
Sora stood up and stretched. He was going to look for his two best friends and hang out - like old times.
Before Sora could make a step, shadowy black creatures began appearing around Sora. Heartless? How did they get here?
Sora summoned his Keyblade and began to swing at the Heartless. To his surprise, the Keyblade went right THROUGH the Heartless. Before he could question it anymore, each Heartless exploded into shadowy particles one by one and surrounded Sora, forcing him to slip from consciousness.

"Who are you . . . again? It's weird . . . I feel like I'm forgetting something really important."
"You'll be . . . better off now . . . Roxas."
"Am I . . . The one who did this to you?"
"No . . . It was my choice . . . to go away now. Better than that, than to do nothing . . . and let Xemnas have his way. I belong with Sora. And now, I am going back . . . to be with him. Roxas . . . I need you . . . to do me a favor. All those hearts that I've captured . . . Kingdom Hearts. Set them free."
"Kingdom Hearts . . . Free them?"
"It's too late . . . for me to undo my mistakes. But you can't let Xemnas . . . have Kingdom Hearts. You can't.
". . ."
"Good-bye, Roxas. See you again. . . . I'm glad . . I got to meet you. Oh . . . and of course, Axel, too. You're both my best friends. Never forget . . That's the truth."
"No! Xion . . . Who else will I have ice cream with?"
Roxas sat on top of his favourite spot in Twilight Town - the clock tower. He ate some sea-salt ice cream as he thought about that memory over and over. He just woke up here not too long ago and that was one of the first things he remembered. Shouldn't he be a part of Sora? He is his Nobody. And why did he remember Xion so well now? He used to have to concentrate really hard just to remember her name. What was going on?
Roxas looked at his ice cream. It seemed like so long since him, Axel, and Xion had ice cream together right in this spot while watching the sunset. But now, it was only him. No Organization XIII, no Xion, no Sora. Only him.
Did this mean he was his own person now?
Roxas looked out at the sunset, still puzzled about the whole situation. He had just finished his ice cream and was about to stand up and leave when a familiar female voice was heard behind him.
"You did it Roxas. You and Sora stopped Xemnas from getting Kingdom Hearts."
Roxas turned around and saw a girl with short black hair and blue eyes. She still wore the black cloak from the Organization.
"X-Xion?" Roxas stammered in shock. He couldn't believe his eyes.
"The sunset is as beautiful as always . . . Just like I remember."
"Xion, how are you here? Did something happen to Sora again?"
Xion smiled at Roxas, "Don't worry; I'm sure he's fine. As for me . . ."
Roxas gave Xion a confused look when she paused and a tear rolled down her cheek.
"I'm sorry Roxas. Please forgive me," Xion said quietly, "No matter what, you're still my best friend. That's the truth, really."
Before Roxas could ask what she was talking about, he began to feel heavy and rather tired. As he tried to stand up, he fell off the clock tower, closing his eyes and falling unconscious before knowing if he hit the ground or not.

"HE'S HEADING FOR THE BASEMENT, GO GO GO!"
Kaito Kid ran up the stairs leading to the roof. The police were such fools; they fell for the "Inflatable Kid" again! He'd be long gone before they realized their mistake. He yanked open the door and found himself face-to-face with a kid with short brown hair, blue eyes, and a pair of glasses.
"You may have fooled those policemen but you can't fool me, Kid, The Phantom Thief," the kid said with a grin. Kid smirked back at him, the wind whipping his cape wildly in the air.
"I suppose I can't, Conan. Or should I say "high school detective, Kudo Shinichi"?"
"Heh, Conan is fine until my body is back to normal," said Conan, "Anyways, you've finally been caught. Your thieving days are over."
Kaito Kid tossed the large pink amethyst in his hand up and down. "Kaito Kid has remained uncaught for over eight years and he's going to stay that way until further notice."
Kid's hang glider opened up on his back and he jumped off the building. He held the amethyst in his hand and glided over the city, watching as the clouds slowly moved away from the moon.
"You aren't getting away that easy!"
Kid looked back and saw Conan holding onto his leg. "Baka!" Kid yelled, "We'll both fall if there's too much weight!"
The moon peaked out from the clouds, lighting up the area a bit. Kid held up the amethyst to the moonlight. To his surprise, the amethyst began to crack. Thinking he finally found what his father died for, a huge grin started to cover his face. Suddenly, the amethyst exploded into dark particles which seemed to multiply themselves every nanosecond. The darkness squirmed through the air and cut through the strap that kept Kid attached to the hang glider. Then the small particles surrounded both Kaito Kid and Conan as they fell, making both go unconscious before they could react.

"Hey, Lucy, let's go on a mission!"
Natsu sat at one of the tables in the guild "Fairy Tail". He spoke with his fellow teammate Lucy with a big smile on his face. Natsu was always ready for a mission! His best friend, Happy, who was a blue walking and talking cat, sat on the table and smiled as well.
"Are we going to actually accept the reward this time? I need the money to pay my rent . . ." Lucy sighed and thought about it. They often didn't accept the rewards for the missions they did since they usually ended with something other than what the mission asked. They were told to burn a book, they gave it back to the owner and didn't collect the pay. They had stolen an S-Ranked job but didn't get the reward since they had been caught. And it was all Natsu's fault. He said it would "ruin Fairy Tail's reputation".
"Geez, Lucy," said Happy, "Stop thinking about money so much! That's greedy!"
"I WON'T HAVE A HOUSE IF I DON'T THINK ABOUT MONEY!" Lucy said angrily. How could those two be so laid back at a time like this?
"Haha, calm down, Lucy," said a guy who just took a seat. He had navy blue hair and only boxers on.
"Gray! Put some clothes on before you sit here!"
"Huh?" Gray looked down. "ACK, NOT AGAIN!"
Natsu began laughing at Gray, who reacted angrily. "You looking for a fight?"
"Yeah, I am!" Both got up and started to use magic simultaneously.
"ICE MAKE-"
"FIRE DRAGON'S-"
"Hello everyone, I'm back."
A woman with crimson red hair and red eyes walked into the Guild. She wore silver armor and a long-ish black skirt. As soon as they noticed her, Natsu and Gray quickly put their arms over each others' shoulders and smiled.
"Hey, Erza!" Gray said, attempting to act buddy-buddy with Natsu, "Me and Natsu are being good to each other like always!"
"Aye!" Natsu said, acting the same as Gray.
"Ah, that's good. And Lucy? How are you?"
"I'm fine, Erza."
"Now, I'd like you all to come with me on another mission . . ."
As Erza began to explain the mission to Lucy and the two "best friends" (and Happy), a man with blue hair stood outside of Fairy Tail. He had an unusual tattoo on his right cheek and blue eyes. He grinned as he stood outside the door with a small black sphere. The man finally pulled open the double doors and everyone looked at him.
"Gerard!" Natsu yelled, fire surrounding his fists as he started to run at the man.
Gerard smirked and threw the small black sphere at Natsu, which exploded into thousands of dark particles which quickly filled the room and destroyed everything, slowly knocking each and every person unconscious.

"Today's afternoon tea: chocolate macrons with fruit fillings and three types of berry shortcakes."
Sebastian Michaelis served his master; a thirteen year old kid with steel blue (the colour, mind you) hair, one eye visible and blue, the other covered with an eye-patch; his afternoon tea. He seemed to be thinking about something as he rested his head on his hand on the desk.
"Is something troubling you, young master?"
"No . . . What were this evening's plans again?"
"We are having a guest over to discuss your business. The mansion is almost ready for their arrival."
Ciel Phantomhive was the owner of "Funtom Company" which manufactured toys, sweets, and foods. He was also the head of the Phantomhive household since his parents had died in a fire on his tenth birthday.
Ciel spun his chair around and dully looked out of the window. He noticed someone in a black cloak walking towards the mansion. Sebastian noticed this as well and looked at his pocket watch.
"I don't believe that is our guest. They are three hours early," Sebastian noted, "Please wait here, young master."
Sebastian left the room and walked downstairs. He opened the door before the stranger could get to the top of the steps.
"Where's the master of this house?" the cloaked person said, who sounded female.
"He is preparing for a meeting. What business do you have with my young master?"
"The ring," she said bluntly, "I need it. Now."
Sebastian knew this stranger was talking about the silver ring Ciel always wore on his thumb. A symbol of being the head of the Phantomhive family. "I'm sorry, that ring is very dear to the young master."
"Sebastian, who is it?" Ciel said with a demanding tone as he walked down the stairs.
"I supposed you would say that. I'm afraid I have no choice now . . ."
The girl warped to the center of the main hall, surprising both Ciel and Sebastian. A small black sphere appeared in her hand and she crushed it easily, causing dark particles to float around the room, engulfing everyone and everything. Even the demon couldn't stay conscious to this unknown energy . . .
YOU KNOW SOMETHING IS BAD WHEN SEBBY-CHAN GOES DOWN! :O
