Dark Pit was alone on Final Destination, thinking to himself of whom he will defeat next. He had just finished his battle with the Master Core and didn't have a clue as to what to do next. He was sadden because Pit was already defeated by Crazy Hand and Master Hand. He thought to himself

"Why am I so upset? It's not like I should really care about him anyway. I shouldn't care, it doesn't matter."

Dark Pit flew off the stadium to go to Palutena's Temple with hopes that he will either find her or Pit waiting for his return, but to his surprise no one was there.

"What happened here?" he thought as he looked around for clues for the sudden disappearance of everyone.

"Where the hell is everyone!" he screamed, frustrated and bothered and brimming with annoyance.

He flew off and landed in Skyloft to find Link so he can ask about the whereabouts of Zelda in hopes that she may know what had happened in Skyward. Dark Pit turned pale and was mortified with what he saw. A Skyloft burned to a crisp with a lone Link laying in the center.

"Link!" he yelled. "What the hell happened here? W-where is everyone?"

Link on the verge of losing his consciousness. Weakly, he responds "An… angels… they were everywhere. But they were….." Before he could finish, the Hylian went silent.

"Damn, he passed out. Who knows how long it will be until he wakes up. I'll take him to Dr. Mario, and then I'll go to Hyrule to find Zelda.

Dark Pit was scared. No, he was beyond scared, something he didn't wish to acknowledge to himself. "Did the Palutena get possessed by the Chaos Kin again?" he thought. "No, that can't be right…Pit killed it."

He finally arrived to Hyrule and was relieved to see that the mythical land remained in pristine condition. He scurried his way to the Temple and found Sheik playing Zelda's Lullaby with his harp. Sheik, unaware of Dark Pit's present, was startled by the black winged angel.

"Dark Pit…" he mumbled before a startled expression marred his facial features. "Watch out!"

Before Sheik was able to do anything, Ganondorf had arrived. With an ominous expression, he struck Dark Pit on his back, rendering him unconscious.
