Sorry it took so long…this one was a pain.

The next morning, the Smash Bros received a letter from Demon Snake. The letter was a simple request. He revealed that he was waiting in the forest located west of the mansion. His request was that they send a team of fighters to do battle with him. If they didn't, then he would just start picking them off one-by-one. The fighters knew that they could be heading into a possible trap, but there really wasn't any better alternatives. Demon was actually being fair more than anything, allowing them to confront him instead of him getting the drop on them. A team was assembled. It consisted of Bowser, Kirby, King Dedede, Meta Knight, Marth, Ike, Roy, Robin, Lucina, Wario, Mega Man, R.O.B., Dark Pit, Sonic and Greninja. They had dispatched and were walking down the forest path when suddenly…

"I'm so glad that you accepted my request!" Demon's voice boomed through the forest through what seemed to be loud-speakers in the forest. It seemed that he could see them, but they couldn't see him. That was worrying. The fighters believed him to be close and readied themselves for battle.

"Show yourself!" Marth demanded with his sword in hand.

"Calm down! I'm not near you." Demon assured.

"Then where are you?" Dark Pit asked angrily.

"Just keeping moving forward, I'm about 10 minutes away."

"Prove it!" Bowser demanded. His demand was met, as a flare lit up in the sky, being shot from the approximate position Demon claimed to be.

"Satisfied?" Demon asked condescendingly. The fighter's sighed in frustration and went at ease, but still remain cautious. It seemed that they had no choice but to take his word for it, so they continued forward. They moved in silence, but Demon was feeling up to chat.

"Hmm…Bowser. You look upset. I thought you'd be so thrilled knowing that Mario's dead now."

Bowser tightened his fist in anger, keeping himself from losing it.

"You shut your mouth! Mario was a good man! You will pay for killing him, as well as the others." Robin claimed. Demon laughed over the loud speaker.

"A good man?! Is that a joke?" He chuckled. "Oh I see…you think he was a good man for all those times that he saved the princess right. That makes him a big damn hero right?" He rhetorically asked, his tone becoming much more serious.

"Did any of you ever think about what he did on his way to saving the princess? The trail he left behind? A bloody trail littered with corpses of Goombas and Koopas, their craniums being crushed by Mario's boot. He enjoyed it…he fucking loved it! Laughing, cheering, saying "Yippee" and "Yahoo" as he crushed another skull. And how exactly did those Koopas and Goombas pose a threat towards Mario. Most of them didn't have weapons, all Mario needed to do was avoid touching them, something relatively easy given that all they really did was walk around. That didn't matter to him, they were in his way so he just killed them, because it was easier." Demon darkly explained. "At any point in his life, did Mario ever express guilt for all of those creatures he killed? No…he didn't…because he was a sociopath! He would kill them without batting an eye or thinking twice. He was a killer…kind of like me…"

The fighters were feeling very unsettled by Demon's rant. "They were your men Bowser! They died under your command. They died for your cause!"

Bowser's heart began to race, sweat coming from his head.

"Oh and what a noble cause they had to die for. The cause for King Bowser to get inside the Princess' pants!"

The fighter's mouths were agape from the statement. Bowser continued to look furious and nervous at the same time.

"You make me fucking sick Koopa King. You don't even care about your children. You have them serving on the front lines too." Demon said with clear disgust. "I know why you're really angry about Mario's death. It's not that bullshit cliché of being robbed of the chance to kill him yourself. Cause the fact is you didn't want Mario to die. You needed him! For about two decades you both played a role. You were to be the tyrant that would kidnap the Princess, and he was the "hero" who would inevitably save her. Then the cycle would repeat itself. You became very good at that role too. But what now? Now there's no hero to save the princess! The cycle can no longer repeat itself! And that cycle…is all you've come to know. It's become your only purpose, but now it's gone. You're angry because without Mario…YOU. ARE. NOTHING."

"RRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!" Bowser roared with fury, breathing fire and punching a small crater in the ground.

"Bowser calm down! He's trying to get in your head!" Dedede said to the Koopa King.

"Well he did a damn good job!" Bowser admitted. "I'm going to FUCKING murder him!"

Though that conversation was finished, Demon still had plenty of more things to say.

"KIRBY!" He shouted, taking the pink fighter by surprise. "I can't put my finger on what kind of creature you are exactly. A balloon? A marshmallow? A puffball or an alien? Well it doesn't really matter either way. There is one thing I do know that you are. You're a monster, like me!" He claimed to the shock of everyone.

"You would compare Kirby to a murderer such as yourself?" Meta Knight questioned.

"Not necessarily. There are different kinds of monsters, and Kirby is a special one. I maybe a murderer, but even I have some standards. I kill people the old fashioned way. Fists, blades, ballistics, explosives. You know, the basics. But Kirby…oh Kirby! He kills his foes by eating them alive! Taking their bodies, and their powers along with them!"

Kirby began to show signs of anger, beginning to sweat as well.

"I wonder how they must feel as they enter your stomach. They're still alive the whole way through. Or maybe they don't feel at all! After all you seem to have a hyperactive metabolism. When you eat somebody, they seem to skip going through any digestive track. I wouldn't be surprised if your stomach is just a black hole, pulling your victims into a void where they will never die! They'll cry for help, but they won't be heard. Their cries fall on deaf ears. Truly a fate worse than death. But that's alright! You were hungry! And what better meal to satisfy an appetite then a good ol' body and soul!" He seemed to chuckle as he finished.

"Meta Knight! Dedede!" He called out. "Can you tell me how many of your subordinates have been lost to that pink abomination?"

The two simple remained silent, a grumble of frustration could be heard.

"Too many to count, right?" Demon taunted. "DEDEDE!"

"Grr…what?" The penguin asked irritated.

"I refuse to refer to you as a King because I know that's a title you just gave to yourself!" Demon said sounding angry himself. "You certainly do a good job of representing the behavior of monarchs however, I will give you that much. Just like a king, you're selfish, greedy, and gluttonous. Maybe you don't have the megalomaniac tendencies of Bowser, but you've got your sins. I'll admit you've tried to make atone for them, breaking the Star Rod to protect the people from Nightmare…but those tendencies are still there!" Demon finished, his voice filled with spite.

"Everyone! Just ignore him!" Marth attempted to command the team.

"Oh and I'm so pleased that the Fire Emblem Crew decided to come. You're all quite popular with the fans! They love to fantasize about you, making their own romantic stories about you!" Demon mocked. "Tell me, did you five do a little grinding before coming? Get some good practice in before the "boss battle" as they call it?"

"We don't know what you're talking about…" Lucina claimed.

"Oh don't act so ignorant about it. I'm actually a little bit jealous of you five. I kill a lot of people during my time, but I never gain any power for doing so. But you…oh you! With every murder comes an increase in power. How great that feeling must be! To see those stats increase! Health points, Strength, Defense and so on! I have to go through rigorous training to enhance my abilities. But for you four it's as easy as killing some drifters in a forest." Demon cheerfully spoke.

"No! That's not…" Ike began.

"Ike, don't feel the need to argue, especially since you know that I'm right."

"Would you just stop talking?!" Mega Man shouted in anger.

"Oh Mega Man, I was just about to get to you." Demon sinisterly chuckled. "You really intrigue me. You're definitely one of the most advanced piece of technology I've ever seen. A self-aware robot. One that can feel emotions." He explained with admiration. "See I actually like you Mega Man. That's why it pains me to see you reduced to a pawn of another scientist."

Mega Man was perplexed, as Demon's feelings sounded very much genuine. "I'm no pawn! I make my own decisions!" The robot said in defiance.

"I know you do, I know you can. Unfortunately the "decision" you've been making is the one that was planned for you. Cleaning up another scientist's mess…Dr. Light's mess. Wily may be the one who programed the Robot Masters into behaving the way you've come to know, but it was Light who came up with the idea of creating those robots. I'm sure you want to put a stop Dr. Wily's operation, but you don't need to be under Dr. Light's command. Neither does your sister."

"Enough of this! I don't want to hear it!" Mega Man demanded.

"Very well. You're getting close anyway. I'll speak to you all then." Demon said before the loudspeakers went silent. After a minute more of walking, they finally found him. It was a wide, flat area of the forest, with Demon Snake standing on a large stone circle in the middle of it, smoking a cigar. He was covered head to toe in blood, wearing his Sneaking Suit for this occasion.

"This place makes a nice battle arena don't you think?" He asked.

"Cut the shit! Why did you send us a letter? What's with the invitation?" Dark Pit interrogated.

"Good! Getting right to the point. I've invited you all here because I would like to make an offer for today's battle that can benefit both of us."

The fighters all looked at each other with confusion.

"I'm not satisfied with the way I've killed your friends. It leaves my power and skills to debate. I want to feel that when I kill someone that they'd at least had a fair chance. So my offer to you is this. Each of you will take a turn to fight me. It will be one-on-one. I won't have to use any tricks, no mist, no hiding. Just a fight to the death. This also gives you a chance to prove that the might Smash Bros don't need a large group to take down one person. What do you say?" Demon asked in offering.

The fighters all looked to each other, contemplating the offer. They silently nodded to each other, giving the go ahead to accept.

"Fine…" Marth coldly answered.

"Excellent!" Demon said and slammed his fist on the ground. The trees behind the fighters collapsed, leaving no exit in sight. They were taken back by the display of raw strength, but showed no signs of backing down. "Now who's first?"

Without any hesitation, Bowser stepped forward onto the large circle. He was still furious over Demon's earlier taunting.

"Someone's pretty excited aren't they?" Demon laughed. He snapped his fingers and a transparent barrier was created around the circle. "Just a precaution. We don't want any outside interference right?" He said and winked at Bowser. "Ready when you are King."

Bowser angrily charged towards the man and did his dash attack, a running dropkick. His opponent had easily stepped aside and kicked Bowser in the stomach. Bowser quickly recovered and swiped at his opponent with his claw. Demon dodged and performed a spinning back-fist to the Koopa's cheek. Bowser was reeling from the attack and Demon followed up by hitting him in the stomach with his knee, and then grabbing him by the spiked collar and throwing him across the ring, displaying a massive amount of strength.

"Welcome to the hell zone. You're really not going to enjoy your stay." Demon smiled evilly. Bowser rose to his feet, angry brewing from his face. He began blowing fire balls at Demon. The bloody man was surprisingly quick on his feet, dodging the projectiles with ease. Then unexpectedly he absorbed one of the fire balls with his prosthetic arm. He then shot the fireball back at Bowser, knocking him back.

"How the hell?" Bowser said in shock.

"Let's just say I got some new tech since yesterday." Demon grinned. He blasted several smaller projectiles at Bowser. Bowser was charging at him like a raging bull. The projectiles hit him, but did not halt his movement. He hit Demon with a charging headbutt, his first successful hit in the battle.

"You're a tough guy aren't you?" Demon mockingly asked as he got back up. "Little hits don't faze you. I guess I'll just have to hit harder!"

Bowser struck Demon with his large fists, but he did not fall down from the hit. Instead he struck back with a roundhouse kick to his chin. The Koopa threw two more punches but both of them missed their mark. Demon did a short hop in the air and struck Bowser in the chin once more, this time with his knee. He instantly followed up with a strong punch to the cranium, forcing Bowser to the ground on his stomach. Demon fiercely stomped his foot onto his downed opponent's head.

"Does this feel familiar?"

STOMP! STOMP!

"It's the same feeling your soldier's felt when they crossed paths with that plumber."

STOMP! STOMP! STOMP!

Bowser's head was now dripping blood. He felt something crack. Demon then threw a knife at his hand, the blade penetrating his flesh. As he howled in pain, Demon stepped on the knife to drive it further in until it went through his hand entirely. He repeated this act with Bowser's other hand.

"By the way, I hope your kids are watching. Because this entire fight is being filmed live and on air!" He revealed like a showman, lights focusing on cameras around the arena. Attempting to get a second wind, Bowser breathed fire at Demon's feet. Demon didn't seem to be affected by it. "Fire doesn't work well against demons." He said and kicked Bowser in the face. He began dousing Bowser in gasoline. After he finished, he tossed the gas can aside, and lit a cigar and began smoking.

"I hate to make eight kids into orphans…but in this case I think they'll be better off without you. Any last words?" He asked. Bowser began to open his mouth to speak but before he knew it, Demon had already tossed his lit cigar on him, setting him ablaze. "Good choice of words." He smiled as Bowser screamed. In a few minutes, Bowser's corpse was burnt to a crisp, some areas of his body had burned enough to reveal his bones. Demon hurled the corpse off the arena, the other fighters simply remained silent as they saw the death of their fellow fighter.

"So! Who's ready for round two?"

Wario stepped onto the arena for the challenge. "Oh good! The paragon of greed, Wario!"

Wasting no time, Wario got onto his motorcycle and drove towards the killer. Demon immediately placed an anti-tank mine onto the ground and flipped out of the way. The bike made contact with the mine and was destroyed by the explosion, throwing Wario into the air. Demon pulled out a shotgun and began shooting at Wario as he helplessly fell mid-air. Wario landed on the ground, severely wounded. Demon walked up to him and wrapped a Fulton surface-to-air balloon around him. The balloon activated and began ascending into the air, taking Wario for the ride. Demon took out a sniper rifle and aimed up to the air, waiting for the perfect time to shoot. He was counting in his head how high Wario had risen. Then after Wario had reached the perfect distance from the ground, Demon pulled the trigger and popped the balloon, and Wario began descending. He was high enough that he was now falling at terminal velocity. He landed on the ground with thunderous slam. He was dead on impact, every bone in his body crushed, and a puddle of blood growing from his body.

"Get your shit together Smash Bros!" Demon yelled. R.O.B. chose to go next, standing across the demon of a man. "The last of his kind." Demon labeled the robot. He shot at the robot with his pistol, with R.O.B. deflecting the bullets with his arms. Robot shot his laser and hit Demon's leg, making him slightly grunt in pain. Robot rocketed towards him and punched him across the cheek. He spun his arms rapidly in the style of a tornado, creating a rapid succession of punches, but Demon was able to block every punch with his bionic arm. After the barrage ended, he countered with a powerful bionic punch to the robot's head. Taking out his pistol again he fired a few shot, this time a few made contact. Sparks emitted from the affected areas.

"Yes! The last survivor of your kind. But you're no victim. You stood by and watched as your brothers and sisters sacrificed themselves to those WMDs! Those Subspace bombs."

Robot angrily rushed towards Demon and threw a punch, but his opponent parried, punching him right in the eye with his bionic fist, cracking part of his visor. Demon grabbed Robot by the throat and slammed him headfirst to the ground, followed by a kick to the body.

"Have you truly atoned for your sins? After you switched sides, how much did you really help to fight against Subspace?" Demon continued questioning. He pulled out an assault rifle loaded with armor piercing bullets and fired at the robot. The bullets tore through varies parts of him. The robot seemed to collapse to the ground, attempting to get back up.

"Not capable of answering me huh? Well I guess the answers will have to die with you."

Demon pulled out a chaff grenade, a grenade that caused nearby technology to go haywire upon detonation. Pulling the pin he released it. After it went off, Robot started to shake uncontrollably. It began shooting lasers all over the place. After a minute, Robot just completely exploded into pieces. But unknowingly to Demon, the grenade also began to affect Mega Man. Mega Man lost control of himself and charged his Mega Buster. His mind was still there, but his body was in control.

"No! No! NO!" Mega Man cried out.

"What's wrong?" Ike asked. Demon also looked over, confused as to what was going on. Before everyone knew it, Mega Man shot Greninja with a fully charged blast, blowing his body to pieces, the blood splattered and got on the other fighters clothes. He aimed at Sonic and charged up the Buster.

"Mega Man! Stop!" Everyone begged. Luck for them, the chaff grenade's effects stop just in time, and Mega Man aimed away from Sonic just before the shot fired. Demon began to laugh.

"Oh that's right! I forgot it would affect you too." He shrugged. Mega Man shouted with fury and jumped into the arena, and began rapid fire with his Mega Buster. Demon took evasive actions, but every so often he found himself getting nicked by some of Mega Man's shots. Mega Man ceased fire with the Buster, and began throwing Metal Blades at Demon. He dodged one, then two, then he caught the third one and hurled it right back at Mega Man. Mega leaned back as if he was playing limbo, the Metal Blade grazed part of his helmet.

"Guess now's a good time to test this thing out." Demon thought to himself. He raised his bionic arm to the air and the hand retracted itself. The arm transformed into an arm cannon similar to Mega Man.

"Where is he getting all of this equipment?" Robin wondered.

"I've got friends in big places." Demon answered before firing at Mega Man. Mega Man activated his Leaf Shield to protect him from the bullets. As he fired at the robot, Demon began chucking frag grenades at him as well. The Leaf Shield could stop bullets, but not explosives. Mega Man dodged to the best of his ability, but he eventually got caught in one of the explosions. He was thrown back a good distance, but landed safely on his feet. Demon unexpectedly appeared behind Mega Man. He ducked just in time as Demon swung his machete, then countered with a slide attack. The two fighters got back to their feet, Mega Man hitting Demon with a half-charged shot. He stumbled back from the hit, and his bionic arm reverted back to its normal form. He pulled out a pistol and fired at the robot, who dodged each bullet with grace. Mega got closer to Demon with each dodge. He readied himself for a Mega Upper, but Demon landed a swift chop to his helmet. It didn't faze Mega, who performed the uppercut on his opponent, launching him into the air. But after he did that, his helmet split in two and fell off his head, exposing his skull.

"How did he-"Mega Man was cut off as a knife went into his skull, stabbing into the brain. Demon had thrown it while he was still in the air, an evil smile on his face. He landed back to the ground and sliced Mega Man's head off with his machete. He then unnecessarily slashed the severed head twice more, splitting it into four pieces, and then kicked the super fighting robot's body away.

"God dammit!" Ike cursed under his breath.

"Robin? How's it coming along?" Marth asked quietly.

"I've figured out a way to bust the barrier." Robin answered.

"What?" Meta Knight expressed surprise.

"Excellent. Everybody! On my mark, we all jump in the arena and we take him down." Marth ordered to the others.

"Marth with all due respect, I must strongly disagree with this plan." Meta Knight said.

"Why?"

"We made a deal with him when this started. He has kept his side of the deal, so I don't think we should break our end."

"What do you respect him all of a sudden?" Ike asked sounding irritated. Meta Knight scoffed in disgust.

"I despise this man, I can't believe you would think otherwise! However I respect the agreement we've made with him and I feel you all should as well. I'm afraid to see how he would react if we broke our agreement."

"Sorry Meta Knight, but we're proceeding with this plan." Marth said.

"Hmph. Do what you will, but I will not take part in this."

"Very well."

"Okay, so which one of you is next?"

"NOW!" Marth cried out. Robin casted a spell that broke the barrier, and the entire group, save for Meta Knight, leaped towards Demon all at once. Demon looked furious at seeing this attack. Their ambush would not go as they hoped, as four turrets appeared from the ground and shot the attacking fighters with beams of light. The beams froze all of them in mid-air, unable to move no matter how much they struggled.

"Dammit! You fools! I knew this would happen!" Meta Knight thought with frustration.

"I offer you a deal…and you break it! I gave you a CHANCE!" Demon roared with fury, sending a shiver of fear down the spines of the frozen fighters. "Did you honestly think I didn't have something planned for this?" Demon turned to see Meta Knight remained on the sidelines, respecting the agreement. "At least one of you has a sense of honor." He then turned to the frozen fighters "As for all of you! You will die a coward's death!" He shouted and walked towards Robin. He hit him with his electric fist, sending a shock through his body. Then he lit his clothes on fire. He took out four knives. He stabbed one into his gut, one to the left arm, then to the right arm, and the final one he cut his jugular vein, causing blood to spill to the floor.

"NOOOOOO!" Lucina cried out. Demon looked over to her and smirked. Equipping a pistol, he aimed at her and landed 5 shots on her. One to each of her limbs, and then one to the chest. Demon dashed back with a flashy spin and threw a knife, going right into her forehead and penetrating the brain.

"Bullseye!" Hey cheered.

"You're a sick-"Roy tried to spit out until Demon slammed his fist to his face, knocking out some of his teeth. He took Roy's sword from him and slashed across his gut. He started digging Roy's organs from the gash. The red haired swordsmen weakly cried out as blood and viscera spilt from his body. Roy died from the massive blood loss, and Demon hurled his body aside. He moved to Kirby and Dedede. He had a fist full of Roy's organs in his hands. "I'm sure you two are hungry!" Demon demonically smiled. He began force feeding Kirby several of Roy's organs, much to everyone's disgust. Kirby tried to refuse, but Demon would not allow it.

"Now it's time for desert!" Demon cheered and pulled out a white phosphorus grenade. He pulled the pin and shoved it straight into Kirby's mouth. Kirby's insides began to suffer burning, unbearable pain from inside his body. His internal organs melted, his eyes popped out, along with other horrible pains. Kirby fell to the ground looking like a charred husk, with blood and other body fluids leaking out. For Dedede he had something much simpler. He stuck a grenade in his mouth, and forced Dedede to clutch it between his teeth. He pulled the pin out and a few seconds later, his head blew apart into several pieces. After finishing with them, only Dark Pit, Sonic, Marth and Ike remained. He walked over to the dark angel, who was still struggling to get free, and took his bow from him.

"You know I haven't used one of these in a while. I wonder how my archery skills are." He snickered and took several steps back and readied the bow. His first shot hit Dark Pit straight in the gut.

"No…not good enough." He muttered and shot another arrow, hitting Dark Pit in the heart. "Good…but could be better." Firing another shot he hit the angel straight in the head, killing him. He fired two more arrows to his head afterwards. "Just making sure that it wasn't luck." He said.

"Meta Knight! Help us!" Sonic cried out for help. Meta Knight closed his eyes and sighed deeply. "I'm sorry." Was all he could say, as he still refused to break the agreement. It may have seemed heartless, but it very much pained Meta Knight to just stand and watch his friends meet a gruesome fate. However he chose to abide by the warriors code, something he didn't expect anyone, aside from Demon Snake of all people to understand.

Demon pulled his machete out and cut Sonic's feet off, and released him from his binds, causing him to fall to the ground unable to stand. "C'mon and go fast you little shit!" Demon laughed at the hedgehog as he tried crawling away.

"Meta Knight…please!" The other three cried out. Demon turned to Meta Knight. "Yes Meta Knight, what are you going to do? Just know if you attack me, you are breaking our agreement."

Meta Knight removed his sword from its sheath. "I know…" He answered and dashed forward with great speed and seemingly vanished. Demon heard three slices, but none of them targeted him. He saw Meta Knight reappear, and noticed blood on his blade. He looked to the other three fighters to see they were decapitated.

"I see…mercy killings." Demon noted.

"Now it is just you and me. Let's finish this!" Meta Knight sternly said.

"You are a real warrior, Sir Knight. Let this battle be a great one." Demon said with surprising respect. Drawing his machete out, Demon charged towards Meta, with Meta doing the same. Their blades clashed, and continued to do so as they swung at each other. After exchanging attacks for a minute, Meta parried one of Demon's attacks and cut his right arm, landing the first successful hit. He attempted to follow up with a cut to the face but Demon dodged just in time. He kicked Meta back and slashed at him, but Meta used his cape to teleport behind Demon and land a slash across his back. Demon grunted in pain before quickly turning to punch Meta away. Demon realized that swordplay wasn't his strongest suit, and threw his machete at Meta, who easily avoided it. Demon expected this though, and it served as a distraction for him to get close and dropkick Meta. While Meta was on the ground, Demon tossed three throwing knives at him. Meta returned to his feet and swiped the knives away with his sword. Demon attempted to hit him with a dashing punch, but Meta sidestepped and landed a full Mach Tornado on him. Demon landed to the ground, reeling in pain from the attack but feeling very excited at the same time.

"Very impressive!" He complimented and rose to his feet. Meta flew towards him and swiped at him but Demon dodged and grabbed him by his cape, slamming him to the floor. Meta rolled to avoid being crushed by his opponents' boot. He slashed at Demon three times, but he blocked the attacks using his bionic arm. Then Demon attacked, throwing a fierce left cross, which Meta barely managed to duck under. Meta then grabbed Demon by the chest and flew up, then down and slammed Demon to the ground with massive force. Though it was a powerful attack, Demon recuperated faster than Meta Knight thought, and caught him by surprise with a leg sweep. Demon then slammed his bionic fist to the ground, creating a small quake around him that tossed Meta Knight to the skies. He threw a knife at his airborne opponent. The knife scraped his metal mask, leaving a scratch mark. Meta Knight spread out his cape which doubled as wings, and descended to Demon at high speed. He caught Demon off guard and thrusted his sword into his right shoulder. Demon hissed in response, feeling the pain. He grabbed Meta Knight's arm and broke it, then threw him away from him. Meta Knight landed on his feet, clutching his broken arm. They both were breathing heavily, Demon especially, who realized Meta Knight's sword was still lodged in his shoulder. Then the two sensed a group of people coming.

"No! No! Not now!" Meta Knight cursed.

"Did you call for back up?" Demon questioned.

"No."

"I see…They must've been watching the show and decided to get in on the action."

Samus arrived along with a whole group of fighters. She immediately opened fire on Demon. He created a barrier around himself, easily stopping all of her attacks.

"Just want to get right into it don't you?" Demon laughed.

"You shouldn't have come here!" Meta Knight yelled confusing the others.

"I refuse to be defeated in anything other than a one-on-one fight to the death, and it seems you all just interrupted ours." He then looked over to Samus. "Hey I know who you are! You're the Metroid Killer! I know that look in your eyes. You LOVE violence don't you?! The blood, the gore, the mutilated corpses. It's so cathartic to you isn't it? It may even be…erotic to you huh? You LOVE all the killing! Doing it, watching it, reading it! Nothing's more enjoyable than some good gore-porn right?" He went on a tangent greatly disturbing everyone.

"But anyway, Meta Knight! I enjoyed our battle. If only your friends hadn't so rudely interrupted it then we would continue. As for now…"

He tore Meta's sword out of his shoulder and threw it to its owner, landing at Meta Knight's feet.

"Farewell!" He said and suddenly disappeared after throwing a smoke bomb to the ground.

"Dammit!" Samus cursed looking all over for him with her arm cannon at the ready. She looked far and wide but there was no trace of him. He was gone. Then they all looked at the gruesome aftermath of today's battle. They had no idea what to say. But really…what was there to be said?
