What had just crawled out of the Rift was no ordinary foe, it was a nercodragon, an undead creature of draconic origins and said to have been seen many times across the realms of Fire Emblem, Alexander grimaced before he pulled out a ration bar from his jacket, eating it as Ridley looked dumbstruck at what was even happening. Before the dragons could even battle, Alexander finished his bar and moved as his hands blazed with power and he struck, Ridley zooming in as well as he fired a series of fireballs at the dragon, the hulking creature not backing down yet, but Alexander had swiftly made his way under and generated massive amounts of power into his hands before thrusting them forward into the rift's path and fired.
The ensuing explosion erupted the creature from the inside and blasted it to pieces as it all was hurled into the rift once more and the Mii quickly pulled out as the Rift closed shut, his job done as the Eggplant Wizard was killed by Peach and her people, Ridley and his crews were knocked back and the Risen and Nercodragon threat was quickly severed as another bulky cruiser arrived and Ridley nearly blasting it out of the sky before Alexander rested a hand and shook no as he stepped forward and waited as the ship landed in the arid landscape and the hatch opened to reveal Alexander's sister. "ALEX!" She rushed over in a running hug before Alex clocked her on the head, whining as she gave a pouty face. "Why did you do that!?"
"We are on site, act professional for once, Anya." She gave a 'murrr grrr grrr' sound as Alexander opened up his commlink and spoke. "Master Sir, the mission is accomplished, can you engage warp for Ridley back to his home dimension?"
"Of course, stand by." Within moments, the space dragon started to phased out with warping particles, getting slightly panicked before Alexander motioned that it was okay and the dragon returned it as he disappeared and Master Hand spoke again. "Now then, board the cruiser and let us get you back to HQ, I would like to hear your report along the way, my brother is also... eager to hear of it."
"Oh boy, if Crazy Hand wants to hear it, then we are in trouble." Alexander shook his head as he boarded the ship with Anya in tow as it lifted off and disappeared into the void of space before humming white and vanishing, reappearing in a new location, the domain of the Hands while also known as 'The Mii Society', where many Miis exist and live outside the walls of the other worlds and at the word of their creators and mentors, the Hands who serve as a balance of order and chaos as the cruiser landed and Alexander got off, looking around at his home before heading on into the city that served as the main hub and the residence of the Hands. Many greeted him as he came through with a mere hello or nod on his side before he made it to the Temple and entered.
Inside the Temple was a number of things, but the reason it was called the Temple is because it is where the Hands rest in defeat, in peace, or just in existence, it is their home and they like it that way as Alex entered the final room and the doors closed as a giant, moving hand slipped out from the shadows and its disembodied voice spoke to the stern Mii. "Welcome home, Mii-diator Alexander, it is a excellent sight to see you again."
"As it is, Master Hand, but I didn't come for a casual visit."
"Indeed, you didn't say a single word to us in your trip!" A hand appeared in a twitchy sense of movement as Alex turned and greeted it the same.
"Crazy Hand, it is a pleasure to see you are well." Alexander turned forward as both hands hovered with some formless soul joining the two down the center. "I have been successful in my mission to maintain order in the Mushroom Kingdom, however, the enemies fought were much different than the standard stock, creatures from Kid Icarus, Hyrule, and Metroid have entered the world without proper reason and the world had been laced with magic from the world of Fire Emblem."
"Hmm... this is troubling news indeed, I have also heard the space dragon Ridley and the Hero of Hyrule were also sighted in the environment as well, this proves that we are heading for a turning point in our history." Crazy Hand was next to speak as he rose and fell the same distance in a small shake of the fist.
"After the events of that world, we believed that the Subspace Army would no longer interfere with our world, however this is an issue more dire than before, I too fear what is coming." Alexander raised a brow as Master Hand gestured as he closed and opened to a large file, Alexander taking it in hand before he opened it.
"Our origins were made secret to hide away the danger, but now it is coming to a graver threat, my old master by the name of Galeem even now seeks to conquer all in light, however she can not stabilize her true form in any realm, it must be a realm where its power is the greatest and we have neglected one world in question, the sealing world of my brother's former master." Alexander nodded as Master Hand continued. "The world is called the World of Light to seal the dark one's power, but its aura is a lure to Galeem and there will come a time when all our available fighters soon engage this threat, but I have foreseen the outcome, we would not win prior, it will be left to the Dream Warrior to save our worlds from the threat of the Light." The file closed in one hand as Alexander spoke.
"I have this feeling that you are asking the impossible, I..."
"We have the every confidence that you will aid the Dream Warrior in his quest, perhaps even liberate some fighters from their binds within light and dark." The Temple shook as Master gripped tight. "Blast! I thought we had more time!"
"This is not good, we NEED to send the Mii-diator into his new form for the time being, this realm will not hold!" As if losing a living battle, the Hands started to lose texture, but not before they clapped together and Alexander found himself disappearing, feeling crushed together before whizzing away, his conscience fading to gray and white before descending into black...
Kirby crushed into the high hill top that he fell upon, getting up and looking out, the world having changed that he felt... despair, feeling to his knees or what could be considered knees, only moments ago did the roster of fighters come together to fight a unknown being, like Tabuu, but FAR stronger and with an army of Master Hands behind it, but it was in vain, whatever it did, it destroyed the world and the members, he only escaped at Meta Knight's words to run if the odds had turned foul and he knew... the moment Shulk turned that the odds were NOT in their favor, in fact he didn't know what strength he could muster in order to fight again, his world, their worlds... gone. He would have remained on the ground of the barren hill if something didn't catch his attention, bounding up to look at it, a strange rainbow-colored thing that his first thoughts didn't think it food, it was... different somehow.
He didn't pay too much mind to it before it surged for him, he tumbling over in a roll as the thing slipped across the Dream Warrior's head and transformed into a pair of goggles, Kirby surprised by the sudden accessory before a voice spoke up, the goggles glowing in union. "So you're Kirby? I have to admit, you are not as legendary as the stories from my companions were, but I guess I can see your actions in real combat very soon." Kirby opened his mouth to utter a poyo, but what came out was DIFFERENT.
"Who are you...?" Kirby asked in his squeaky voice, he spoke a normal sentence as he just asked. "...And what are you in the first place?"
"Ah... pull the goggles down, since that is what is allowing me to speak to you and allow you to speak in a clear sentence, though your speech is not to joke about." Kirby slipped the eyewear now and he could see a digital thing, he recognized it from the number of fighters and warriors he had fought in times lately, he was a Mii, but a majority of his body was missing, only the torso and head remained as a face adorn with a pair of glasses looked up and spoke. "Hello, I am Alexander, a Mii-diator in service to the Mii Plaza, the realm between realms." Kirby looked confused as he had never heard of such a figure as a Mii-diator and Alexander rolled his eyes as he spoke. "That can be explained later, just know that Master and Crazy have sent me to aid you in this quest, to free the worlds from Galeem's power and her vile ambition to purge all in light."
"But... what about my friends... what about them...?" Alexander hummed before he spoke.
"This is not going to be easy, my file on Galeem is still somewhat unread, but I can say this, Galeem is powerful, but in merging the worlds into this 'World of Light', I can only make a guess that she is overtaxed and now relies on the Master Hand Minions that serve her and some form of control over defeated and captured fighters, but she can not control the purest form of them, so she has to make molds from their souls and inhibit those same husks with souls, likely lesser souls that were awash in this tide of light." Kirby breathed slightly at the thought, that meant that he could save them, that they would be okay, but what was the first plan of action? Alexander clued in on this as he replied. "First, we get a move on, while I am in this form, which is kinda of strange for my usual appearance, I can detect any fighters and paths that we must take. In fact, there is one nearby, but we need to fight through the standing souls that block the path, Kirby, think of it this way, you are not just saving Dreamland, but also all realms from the corrupted gaze of this light-side tyrant, just a normal day of heroism, I suppose."
"Yeah... just a normal day..." Kirby knew better that anything now was less than normal, but this aide, this Alexander, sounded to be a trust-worthy ally and if he says that both Master Hand and Crazy Hand ha sent him to help, then Kirby knew that he need all the help he could get as he readied and dashed down the hill, to fight through the souls and be triumphant over the puppets of Galeem...
Just a heads-up, just in case any of you were wondering.
I was going to put the Mii Alexander through a number of battles and trials, but I could come up with anything and the way I set it up was that Alexander would be made aware of Galeem and start to understand the threat posed.
I am sorry that this is how it is going to be, but I really don't know what else I could have done this day or night. So, it will be an adventure through the World of Light.
Leave your comments on how the path should be made, and before you ask, no, I do not have a Switch, sad, but things look fragile and I deal in hard-hitting siblings, they would just wreck the system if they got their hands on one and roughly played.
