Hello and welcome to the first part of the battle, or aka when they free the last of the Smashers… Though I'll only highlight the main Smashers they will be fighting because if I do them all… It would take me forever to write each of their battles.

Makes sense because of Arc 3, but do you think Arc 1 will be the longest?

Eh, who knows, but I'm thinking of untying Shade…

Yes does that mean I'm free yet?

Nope, but if I'm correct, I'll free you next chapter…

Yes~!

Let's get to the fight shall we?

Now let's go!

Chapter 23: First Up, The Smashers… Fight!

Everybody looked at the remaining Smashers before back as Sara, who was happily sitting on her throne watching them. They looked at the Smashers and with a quick glance at each other, charged right at the last of the brainwashed Smashers. Most of The Smashers had put up a good fight, but not it was to some of the major Smashers they had to fight against. Sara watched as they went her remaining Smashers and kept close eyes on how they fought. Little did she know what would lead to…

~Virtuality vs. Reality~

"Argh this is way too boring!" Ashley said sitting against the wall, "There are nothing to do down here and no guards to mess around with."

"Ashley if you keep on complaining about nothing to do I swear I'll make you shut up!" Master Hand yelled from his cell, "You're as bad as Crazy when you have nothing to do here."

Ashley sighed and looked over to Villager and Robin, who were leaning against the wall where Aurora and Mi'kal's cell was. Robin was trying to find something to do along with Villager, who was trying to draw stuff on the ground with a rock he found. In the next cell Aurora was awake as Mi'kal had fallen asleep after they were discussing with Master Hand.

"So… since whoever's helping Sara is also stupid enough to not leave any guards in here…" Ashley said looking outside the cells to see nobody, "What are we going to do without somebody to annoy?"

"I don't know… but how about you SHUT UP?!" Master Hand yelled from his cell.

"Oh yeah? You might be more powerful than us, but for now we're even and I'm going to lose my mind if I can't find anything to do!"

"Can you please SHUT THE FLUX UP and let Mi'kal sleep?!" Aurora yelled from her cell before all went silence, "Thank you… Oh and Mi'kal is still out cold…"

Everybody sighed and continued to do things silently as Aurora got up to her feet and walked over to the back wall of the cell. To be fair for her, she was getting pretty bored with staying in the cell by herself and not having anything to do, like annoying a guard. Pacing back and forth, she was thinking of something to do before she remembered something that she had. Her eyes gazed at her cape, still attached and with her Mega Stone still inside the golden holder. Maybe she could Mega Evolve and get out of the cell, but depending on what the side effects from the formula were, she didn't know exactly what it would do if she tried it. Behind her coming from the cell wall, a dark shadow was watching her before reaching its hand out to her shadow. Her hand hovered over the gem and was about to press the gem when something grabbed her neck from behind and a hand covered her mouth. She tried struggled to get free from whoever grabbed her from behind, but was failing as whoever grabbed her was trying to take her into the shadows. Mi'kal was slowly waking up before his eyes widen feeling Aurora's warmth gone. He looked and saw a shadowy figure taking Aurora into the shadows behind him. Before he had a chance, something came from behind him holding something in its hand and was ready to swing it right at Mi'kal's head. Aurora's eyes widen and tried to warn him, but it was too late.

"Can't let you do that," a voice said as it swung the weapon at Mi'kal, sending him crashing into the wall, knocking him unconscious.

Aurora had tears coming from her eyes as she was forced into the shadows and Mi'kal was unconscious still in pain. The shadowy figure looked at him before noticing the ice starting to form underneath Mi'kal's body. It was spreading quickly around his body before the regular blue crystallized ice turned black and red as Mi'kal's eye shot right open. He got up from the floor as the ice went around his body, forming sharp ice whips as Mi'kal looked at the shadow figure retreating into the shadows. Mi'kal eyes were pre black as he smirked before running into the shadows. In the others cell, it seemed they didn't notice anything as they were trying to still find things to do.

~Virtuality vs. Reality~

"Warrior Kitty! Light!" Lauren called out dodging an attack coming from Link, "Can to straighten things out with Link over here?"

"Sure thing!" Light replied as she countered Ness' attack, "Warrior Kitty!"

"On my way!" Warrior Kitty replied dodging another fire ball and ran over to help Light

"Is it just me or when the Smashers are under Sara's control, they slowly begin to suck just like her?" Ana asked dodging a Falcon Punch, "Oh? Are you seriously hitting a lady? Fine: Phoenix Punch to your face BOY!"

She sent a flaming punch shaped like a Phoenix right into Captain Falcon's face, sending him flying as Bryce was blocking one of Sonic's attacks before Lauren used Discharge on him. The fighting was getting towards it end as Bryce and Lauren were focusing on Sonic, Light and Warrior Kitty were taking care of Link. Lilac was going one on one with Mario and Mighty was going after both Ness and Wolf. Everybody else were trophies after Frost got pissed off at Sara making fun of them and Frost was running over to help Mighty. After using Flamethrower to get both Ness and Wolf back, Frost appeared and used Dragon Claw, sending Wolf farther away as she faced him.

"Mighty, take care of Ness won't you?" Frost asked looking at Wolf, who was just getting up, "I'll take Wolf on."

"But why?!" Mighty asked.

"I know you like Falco and all, but I'm not going to be the one who taking on Ness with his magic attacks; besides you're better at taking those hits than me."

"Fine…"

Mighty went to fight Ness as Frost faced an attack from Wolf just by deflecting the shot and growling at him. Her growling soon became a Dragon Claw then an Ice Beam right at his face. With Mighty, she was focusing on making sure she could dodge Ness's attacks and get a clear shot to stop him once and for all. Once she dodged another attack, her eyes began to glow blue as her tails spread out as she caught more fire balls before her expression turned into a dark smile.

"My turn," she said sending those fire balls flying at Ness.

Ness knew how to dodge each fireball, but he never expected to surrounded by multiple copies of Mighty, who has flames in her mouth ready to hit him with her attack. He sent an electric attack out to destroy the copies, but she had jumped up before that and sent her flames straight into his face before landing right behind him. He turned around, but Mighty already knew what to do, so she acted totally innocent.

"Sorry Ness," she said with her puppy eyes as Attract began to form around her and went right at Ness.

The attract work and she happily called over Frost to use Ice Beam on the love struck boy. After that, the two girls went over to Bryce and Lauren taking care of Sonic. The main problem was Sonic's speed, but Lauren had that covered with her electric attack by shocking the floor a few times and releasing her electricity, it was able to catch Sonic and Bryce as well.

Meanwhile with Warrior Kitty and Light, the two fan girls were trying to tackle Link to the floor instead of fighting him. The girls wanted to get him back so badly that they didn't care how much he was dodging and trying to attack them. Link, however, was getting pretty annoyed at how annoying they were until the girls had a crazy idea. Light went to attack Link with a Shadow Claw as Warrior Kitty went right behind Link. Link dodged Light's attack however, but tripped behind by Warrior Kitty, sending him down onto the floor as Frost came from behind the two girls and used Ice Beam to freeze him. The two girls turned back glaring at Frost even though Ana and the others were still fighting the remaining Smashers.

"What?" Frost asked.

~Virtuality vs. Reality~

Back at the cells, everybody was bored until they heard noises coming from the ceiling. Robin was the first to look up and saw a piece of metal fall from the ceiling outside the cell and to their surprise; Panda came down from the ceiling with weapons strapped to his back. The three in the cell looked at him as he climbed and quickly broke the lock, releasing the three of them.

"Panda! You're alright!" Robin exclaimed as he got his stuff back along with Ashley and Villager.

"Yep and even if that guy injected me and left me someplace else with tighter security, I'm not exact alive back where I came from," Panda replied, "I think that's why I'm not affect by whatever was injected into me."

"Well that's a relief," Ashley replied, "Hold on we need to save Master and Crazy Hand first!"

The group nodded and first went over to where Master and Crazy Hand were being held. Ashley had no trouble breaking the lock with her magic, releasing the two being held captive.

"Come on you guys!" She said, "We need to get Mi'kal and Aurora out!"

"Right, whatever you say," Master Hand replied, walking out as just hooded figure, "Now before you ask I'll put it this way; if you look underneath these, you'll die; got it?"

"O… K… dully noted," Robin replied seeing anther one coming out, "Now let's get Aurora and Mi'kal out before the mysterious guy comes back!"

The group went over and once Robin took out the lock with his Thunder magic, he entered the cell only to find it completely empty besides a dark hole in the back wall of the cell.

"Blast, somebody got to them before we did," Robin said as the others walked in.

"But… we should have heard them struggle right?" Villager asked.

"…I think whoever got them made sure to make as little noise as possible," Master replied, "But we need to go through that portal and find them before things get worse."

"Right," everybody but Crazy replied, since he was still gagged.

As everybody went through the portal, it closed, leaving the cells all empty and quiet.

And it's done after how long? Eh who cares? But next time we'll see what's happen to our Jail-Break heroes and the fight with Sara~!

And I'll be free~!

Great…

Anyway until then, later~!
