A/N: Don't worry folks! I'm alive! Summer school, been on vacation for awhile, and now school is started, but I am here to finish what I started on my great creation: Xtreme Heroes. I looked through the whole thing and after like Chapter 11, people stopped reviewing. That made me pissed, cuz everyone is looking at my brand new story: Game On! So I have decided to update, revise, and extend my chapters for Xtreme Heroes Episode 1. I am going to change the episode title, the character names, I am going to make this like a movie would feel. So yeah, there WILL be a LEMON early on in the story. I am making this more mature, more in depth, and I am going to work heavily on making this better. PLEASE REVIEW THIS STORY!

OUTSKIRTS OF THE BORDER LINE BETWEEN THE MUSHROOM KINGDOM AND METROPOLIS

All was quiet on the outskirts, not a soul daring to enter these forsaken battlegrounds. Dust swirled throughout the land, creating a blanket clouding the entire outskirts. The sun slowly rose upon the desert. Through one side of the mist stepped two men. The man on the left was short and chubby, clad in blue overalls and a red long sleeve shirt. His dirty brown shoes swiftly cut through the dusty mist. The wind tugged at his red cap, also ruffling his cleanly cut mustache. He tightened his white gloves, his stare almost cutting through the mist. Next to this red-capped man stood a taller, skinnier man. He wore blue overalls as well but had on a green sleeve less shirt though. He pulled back slightly on his green cap, deciding to smooth out his mustache as well.

"Brother," spoke the green-capped man. "There must be another way to settle this war."

"No Luigi. Our adversary has taking this to a new level." Said the red capped mustache man. "Attacking our own kingdom and destroying the Bean Bean Kingdom is one thing…but kidnapping and holding Peach hostage is no way to settle this fair."

Luigi looked around through the mist. He reached down for his walkie talkie but his brother stopped his hand.

"Our troops will not be needed for this Luigi…enough lives have been lost, I do not want this to go on any longer."

"How de we know we can even trust him, Mario? Come alone, my ass. He is coming, and he has entire army behind him."

Mario looked down slightly. "I do not trust him either, but if we are to honor his request, we come alone and fight alone."

"So we fight?"

"That is my decision, Luigi. This war had gone on far enough and if our adversary cannot understand…we must resort to aggressive negoations."

"Do you think he'll give up this easily Mario? Sonic has been known never to give up this easily."

"I don't know." Said Mario. "He should, if he truly knows what this war is all about."

Two creatures stepped through the other side of the mist. The one on the left was a blue hedgehog humanoid with white gloves and red shoes. He wore street jeans and a blue torn sleeveless shirt. He stared down his old friend, not taking his eyes off him. The creature next to him was a hedgehog as well only he was all black. He wore a black torn vest with black pants.

Mario and Luigi walked towards the two hedgehogs, meeting in the middle of desert. The red plumber kept his stare into Sonic's eyes.

"Interesting. You did come alone." Said Sonic.

"Have you come to give back Peach?" asked Mario, eyes looking for the right answer.

"…No. The Princess stays with us." Said the black hedgehog.

Luigi glared at the black hedgehog. "This isn't what any of us want Shadow. We can end this peacefully, there is no need to fight in this."

"You don't realize where we are, do you?" said Sonic. "These are the sacred battlegrounds. This desert is where the most hated rivals come to settle their wars."

"This is the perfect place to settle this." Said Shadow. "If you win, the Princess is yours."

"Very well!" said Mario, getting into a fighting stance. "If it's a fight you want…"

"You've got one!" yelled Luigi, getting into his fighting stance. Shadow ran off in one direction while Sonic dashed in the other, the mustached plumber on his tail. Sonic toyed with Mario, running circles around him.

"What's the matter, Mario? Can't keep up?" taunted Sonic.

Mario grunted in furstration as he tried throwing punches. "STAND STILL, DAMNIT!" he yelled.

Sonic stood still for a split second then unleashed a wicked barrage of hard blurring punches, before nailing an uppercut which knocked Mario off his feet. Mario got back up and dodged more of Sonic's punches before blocking one of Sonic's punches and knocking him down a hard left hand punch. Sonic skidded from the punch then started running again as Mario ran as fast as he could to keep up.With a power spin hop, Sonic jumped onto a "rock island" in the middle of a pit wher he waited for his rival to follow.

"I don't want this fight to go on any longer Sonic!" yelled Mario. "Please! End this now and we can all settle this the right way!"

"Not gonna happen Mario!" yelled Sonic, in response. "Shut up and fight me!"

Mario sighed and ran forward, his fist extended ready tp punch. Sonic dodged, leaping back and doing a back kick to the back of Mario's head. The impact sent Mario rolling dangerously near the edge but the valiant plumber arose and pulled a fire flower out of his pocket, activating it, making it change his attire. His blue shirt had changed to a white shirt, his red cap had turned white, and his overalls turned red, chargiong up fireballs and throwing them at the blue hedgehog. Sonic simply dodged them all as the distraction allowed Mario to get in a few hits. Sonic shook of the hits and fought back with a flurry of punches. Mario did his best but he couldn't dodge them all as his nose started to bleed slowly.

At the same time, Shadow and Luigi had brawled deep into the desert as the two tried everythign to knock eachother down. Luigi had had enough as he pulled out a feather giving him a cape which he used as a spin attack, knocking Shadow down.

"I see Mario has taught you well Luigi." growled Shadow.

"I learned from the best, what can I say?" said Luigi, who raced forward and tried another spin attack. Shadow caught the green plumbed and powerslammed him hard into a boulder. Luigi rose quickly and hit Shadow with a vicious Luigi Missle. The blast knocked the dark hedgehog off hsi feet but he whirled in the air, landing back on his feet, pulling out a handgun in the process. Luigi froze, his eyes locked on the aim of the gun. With a lest decision reflex, he backflipped over the shot and handspringed up to get a jaw kick to Shadow.

Luigi noticed the fight between Mario and Sonic then turned his attention back to Shadow who caught the green plumber off guard with hard kicks and a flip kick thagt almost dislodged Luigi's jaw. Luigi held his jaw and used the power of his cape to fly to Shadow, as he strarted running in the other direction. Luigi caught up with Shadow and scooped him up, spinning him around and throwing him straight up into the air, flying up and Luigi started zipping around Shadow, enveloping him a tornado. Luigi then grabbed his golden hammer and charged it up, stopping the tornado, Shadow's eyes widened as he saw Luigi with his hammer ready.

"FORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" yelled the green plumber as he whacked Shadow with a super hard hammer shot, sending him rocketing down into the desert, slamming through a rock fixture.

Meanwhile, Mario and Sonic had continued to fight. They were off the island now and had continued fighting. Sonic got into his Spin Dash form and darted towards Mario, only for him to draw his cape and spin it, sendhing Sonic flying up into the air. Mario jumped off the rock fixtures and charged up fire balls, sendhing them slamming into Sonic, juggling the blue hedgehog before Mario jumped into the air, using his Mario Tornado drilling into Sonic before Mario threw Sonic down and slammed him into the ground. Mario continued punching Sonic until Sonic threw him off, nailed him with a spin dash, and grabbed Mario, holding him as he delivered 79 blistering fast kicks, then kncoking Mario down, and stomping his throat. Mario flailed on the floor, coughing up blood hard. Luigi saw this, running to his fallen brother's aid. Shadow turned and nodded to Sonic as Shadow rolled behind Luigi and knocked him off his feet. At the same time, Sonic did a spin kick sending Luigi rolling across the floor.

Luigi's eyes were glazed but he managed to pull out a strange green and white mushroom, throwing it at Mario instantly reviving him. Luigi healed himself as well as they stood back to back and glowed red and green.

"BROTHER'S FLARE!" they both yelled. A tornado enveloped them both as they rose into the air, exploding into light sending the two hedgehogs flying.

"THIS ENDS NOW!" yelled Sonic as he pulled out 3 emeralds from his pockets, Shadow throwing in a few of his own. They glowed and they transformed into their super forms. This was it. 4 titans, ready to strike, willing to do all it takes to wipe the other out. Just as they were about to strike, the sky darkened.

They all looked up as a huge missle headed straight to them, landing nearby them, the blast sendhing them all flying. When the dust cleared, a huge dark fortress was seen in the sky.

"What the hell is that thing?" said Luigi.

"I don't know what the hell this is..." said Sonic. "But I know it's got 2 seconds to get his ass scooching before I rip him a new one!" yelled Sonic as he zoomed through the air, fist extended. But as he made contact, purple lightning shot out and zapped Sonic, sending him falling down to the desert.

"NOT WITH ME YOU WON'T!" yelled Shadow as he tried the same thing as Sonic only to meet his same fate. Mario and Luigi even tried but not even their combined power could stop the fortress. Shadow weakly looked up as the fortress charged up a huge missle blast. He reached for one of his emeralds and activated it.

"C..c..haos...con...control..." he said, faintly.

Shadow teleported everyone away, just as the missle blast landed right in the middle of the desert. From atop a pilalr nearby, a black cloaked figure watched the explosion occur.
