With the detailed info on my GJA series timeline and the list of weapons and Final Smashes for our heroes out of the way, the story begins roughly a week since the events of GJA #1.

Speaking of which, I'd like to add some notes about Cute Pink's signature KI weapon being the Aquarius Blade: The reason I picked it out (via Divinipedia and Icaruspedia) is because she's indeed fond of oceans, as seen in some of the Bomberman games to date. She was formerly (and still is) known as Pretty Bomber, and used to be one of White's adversaries in three installments thus far. While she is usually confronted in a water-based realm in Super Bomberman 3 and Bomberman Tournament, she first appeared in Super Bomberman 2 as the boss of the third world which resembled a pink fantasy castle, with some (if not all) of its levels containing a lake which the players must avoid falling in. Later on in Bomberman Land Touch!, she frequents the ocean-themed Heart Zone, one of Bomber Pirate Island's five main locales.

Hope that clears things up, but other than that, enjoy the prologue!

PROLOGUE

In the year 20XX AD, the Earth was at peace thanks to the heroic efforts of the Contras - Aaron, Ami, Bill Rizer, Lance Bean, Blaze Bomber and most recently, Arctic Bomber, the only member to have reformed herself from the past misdeeds she'd committed against the Contras back when she worked for the Hate Bombers. Red Falcon's fourth attempt at world domination, if not its complete destruction, has failed and he, along with his Hate Bombers and the reprogrammed Five Dastardly Bombers were utterly destroyed once and for all, bringing an end to World War III or what the survivors of our planet dubbed as the second-half of the Alien Wars. Countless lives from all over the world had perished just as bad as what had happened a long time ago during World War II, and had it not been for the Contras and their friends and allies alike, the fate of mankind would have been a lot worse.

As for ex-First Lieutenant Purple Basilisk, the purple-skinned humanoid snake in a military uniform, he had been banished to the underworld for abusing the power of the dreaded Crimson Stone, thought to have been destroyed long ago by the Belmont clan in their final struggle against Dracula, and was thus stripped of its power forevermore, the source being Red Falcon himself due to the infusion (though much to the Contras' surprise). Two months after the end of World War III, he revived the Chaotic Bombers and attempted to conquer the Game Central Station within the recently-opened Blaze Bomber's Diamond Arcade World on November 2, but they weren't prepared enough to deal with the likes of Blaze and Arctic, and their new friends: Wreck-It Ralph, Vanellope von Schweetz, Fix-It Felix Jr. and Sergeant Tamora Jean "T.J." Calhoun. The Basilisk Dynasty would attempt again to conquer Game Central Station the following week after, only this time with the help of Vaati the Wind Sorcerer and countless video game boss characters. Their first order of business was to kidnap the first six Disney Princesses by turning them into stereotypical damsels-in-distress in order to draw their foes out...


But in the end, the combined efforts of Diamond City's heroes and friends alike, along with the Core Four of Game Central Station, returned the Disney Princesses back to normal and ended Vaati's tyranny on the virtual Disneyland (a hub said to connect the digital realm to the real Disney World). Purple Basilisk and his co-workers had since been punished with hours of serving as the bowling pins at Sugar Bowl-O-Rama via Sugar Rush. Whether Blaze Bomber's Diamond Arcade World building was open or not, the kids in the digital realm would get a shot at bowling over the transformed baddies with encouragement from Princess Sofia of Enchancia and the Disney Princesses as well. The idea was to encourage the innocent children with the fact that there's nothing to be afraid of even when times are tough. In Rancis Fluggerbutter's case, whenever Sofia came to visit Sugar Rush, he'd always feel safe to have her around...though Candlehead tried her hardest not to be jealous of the young princess's Enchancian magic.

The other reason for that special event was to discourage the video game villains from attempting to pull off the same stunt Wild Dog did when he deliberately sold out to the Basilisk Dynasty in order to "pay tribute to Turbo." He was lucky Ralph knew him as a fellow bad guy, otherwise he would have been sentenced to serving as yet another magic bowling pin instantly. However, he was given one chance to reform himself on one condition: that he never attack the player(s) at all during the boss fight against him in Time Crisis 4. Should he ever do so, much less increase his AI difficulty in the slightest, then off to Sugar Rush's bowling alley on the other end of the lane he goes. Ralph passed on the message to his fellow members of Bad-Anon despite mixed opinions from few other bad guys, mostly M. Bison and his three cohorts from Street Fighter II: The World Warrior.


Yes, peace had indeed returned to both the real world and its digital realm, with the six Contras (Aaron, cartoon Ami Onuki, Bill Rizer, Lance Bean, Blaze Bomber and Arctic Bomber) having made a vow they'd keep an eye out for any suspicious activities across the planet Earth, be it an attempt by Sniper Bomber, Axe Bomber, Volcano Bomber, Yellow Cobra and Swampster the Terrible to rebuild the Red Falcon Empire or otherwise. Currently they are stuck in limbo when the Contras banished them in the underworld through an existing "Polybius" cabinet in the forbidden "Nethertainment" center, but the heroes knew there may be another banned game cabinet to serve as an interdimensional portal. For right now, life in Diamond City prospered as normal...

...But meanwhile, up in the far reaches of the sky existed Skyworld, home to the famed angel hero Pit and his girlfriend, Phosphora the Lightning Flash. They rule over a kingdom of their own, completely separate from Palutena's Army and the Forces of Nature, known as New Angel Land. It came into existence back in 1595 when they visited Earth to see William Shakespeare's The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet; thus they declared a treaty to live peacefully with no interference from Palutena and/or Viridi whatsoever:

THE SKYWORLD TRUCE

We of Palutena's Army and Viridi's Forces of Nature, do hereby agree to live in peace, and to let Pit and Phosphora, the star-cross'd lovers of Skyworld, to live together even when they're only dating at this very moment.

If they want to protect the innocent humans on planet Earth side by side from dark forces, let them do so.

If they want to rule Skyworld through love, care and respect, let them do so.

And if they want to get married later on, let them do so.

Henceforth, we seal the deal of our own accord with the one-of-a-kind truce we won't tinker.

For she who does so is a STINKER.

Signed,

Palutena, Goddess of Light
Viridi, Goddess of Nature

Unsurprisingly, Viridi detested the treaty with a vengeance as it forbade her from building anymore Reset Bomb Factories to replace the one that Pit blew up during the so-called nature war. Watching from over a crystal ball in her Temple of Nature, she looked onwards to see 9-Volt attending all sorts of fun adventures alongside Phoebe, Cheerful White and Cute Pink, be it watching the Lower Birth's non-lethal performances at Patricia's Electric Ball Castle or riding rollercoasters at Wario Park. The childlike goddess had a pillow tied to her rear end as a reminder of the time she got spanked for attempting to ruin 9-Volt, Phoebe, Pit and Phosphora's visit to Princess Cherry's Fruit Kingdom in Chi World two months back. Oh, how she hated it when someone who used to work for her, even though that someone was brainwashed by a Chaos Kin larva at the time to begin with, administered a spanking in the same fashion a strict mother would do to her naughty child!

"9-Volt, 9-Volt, 9-Volt...UGH! Just why does everybody like that kid besides Pit? He doesn't even do diddly-squat to preserve nature like I always do! And being all brave and smart like his friends doesn't excuse him from being a potential tree-killer like all those other stupid humans, but I know just the thing to teach this Diamond City a lesson! Isn't that right, Cragalanche?"

The spherical rock monster, ever the silent type with no ability to speak, nodded slowly.

"From my trusty, not to mention environmentally-friendly, crystal ball in my natural palace, Diamond City has always been filled with too much greed for money and jewels and hoo-ha, especially that big fat manchild of a 'president' running his WarioWare Inc...All the trees gone just to make way for that building! Ugh! People always dream about being rich...hah! I think it's high-time I gave them nightmares with my Nightmare Bomb! Unlike my Reset Bombs, these'll knock them out to sleep, trapping them in a nightmarish realm based on what they've been doing to the environment, and the only way to get out is to start begging me for forgiveness and worship me, and most of all, respect nature 24/7!" Viridi gestured a bomber plane dropping bombs on a target whilst making noises, and imitated a few explosions.

"'Nooooo! Not the Reset Bombs! We're super-duper SORRY!' Well, too bad, stupid humans! You mess with nature, you get the horns! Spoiled brat, am I? Hmph! I'll show Pit and Phosphora, not to mention 9-Volt and Phoebe and their other mortal friends..." She glanced over to the Skyworld Truce and threatened to destroy it, but then she'd be labeled forevermore as a stinker, and she wouldn't have it. Using her eco staff, she opened a portal to Diamond City...but rather than jump in, she picked up some meatball-looking Nightmare Bombs to throw in one at a time. "You brats WILL respect me AND nature, and I'm gonna see to it that you do even if I have to give you nightmares! OH, YOU MAKE ME SO MAD!" Grunting and yelling like a tantrummy child, she hurled her beach ball-sized bombs through the portal directly into Diamond City with reckless abandon.

END PROLOGUE


Uh-oh! It looks like nature's bratty goddess is on the loose again, only without her Reset Bombs backing her up this time!
