I'm sure updating fast, am I? The story is nearing the end and I'm really excited to show it to everyone, therefore I'm filled with the energy to get typing. Combined with the fact that I also really want to show you all the special preview of my upcoming stories after the last chapter, I'm getting more motivated than usual.
Chapter 35
Big Battle in the Main Office
"Docta Wily!" Mario gasped.
"So the tournament and everything in it is a fraud set up by you all along just to fulfill your evil desires?" Fox asked. "I can't believe that nobody ever noticed this!"
"Of course nobody would notice this!" Dr. Wily said. "This has been one of my most successful plans to date! I still have Jirachi with me so I'm still on the winning side! This is as far as you people go; it is time that you learn the consequences of coming against me!"
"Bring it! I'm ready to have a piece of you!" Wario said, punching his palm.
"This time you're going down for real!" Falco said. "Time for the finale!"
"Heheheh! I won't go down so easily this time!" Wily said. With a snap of his finger, the floor began rumbling and started moving too, much to the Smashers' surprise. The floor eventually disappeared into the walls leaving there no place to stand on and the Smashers had no choice but to fall down the lower floor.
"What the?!" Samus said in shock. The 40th and the 39th floor had now connected with each other due to the floor being removed and the only part of the 40th floor that was left was a single piece of platform sticking out from against the wall and both Wily and Reggae were over there.
"Get down here and fight like a man!" Falco yelled at him.
"Heheheh! I'll do as you wish!" Wily said. Then the floor before the Smashers started to slide open and something rose out of it. It was a large robot modeled after a T-Rex, but the head was a human skull. Wily and Reggae hopped into the cockpit above the skull and took control of the robot afterwards. "I'm going to crush you all this instant!"
"Don't think you'll have it easy!" Ike said to him. "We have the number advantage here, so you will be the one to fall!"
"And I've got this with me!" Snake said, pointing to Metal Gear X.
"No matter how many of you come at me at once, it won't make a difference!" Wily shouted. "You're all going down! En guard!"
BGM: Wily Machine (Megaman 9)
"I'm going to show you the consequences of using my robot without permission!" Snake said. "Behold the power of Metal Gear X that was not shown to the readers until now!" He used the PS3 controller to make the Metal Gear X move forward. The robot let out a screeching sound and then parts of its body opened and launched forth several missiles that aimed for the head.
The Wily Machine opened its mouth and a powerful stream of fire came rushing out and burned away the missiles easily and engulfed the Metal Gear X, blowing it backwards. The robot struck the floor and managed to stay on its feet, but it had burnt marks all over its body. "Its body has strong heat resistance, so you can't burn it down with fire so easily!" Snake said.
"Let's get him!" Wario shouted, and both Ike and he ran to the robot and aimed for the legs.
"You're just heading into your graves!" Wily said. The machine lifted up its left foot and stomped the floor really hard and a shockwave was released. They both got hit by the shockwave and were thrown back into the air in front of the mouth and then the fire was breathed into their faces.
"YAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!"
"Eat this!" Samus shot out a missile at the Wily Machine but the machine's hand caught the missile much to her surprise and flung it back at her, but she jumped out of the way to avoid it.
"I'm not down yet!" Snake shouted. The Metal Gear X charged at the Wily Machine again and then pulled back its arm to deliver a powerful punch into the face of the skull. Wily fell back and bonked his head against the glass behind him and Reggae, for whatever reason, laughed at this.
"Ow! You brat!" Wily growled. The head slammed forward and headbutted the Metal Gear X hard and sent it crashing back onto the floor and then the eyes started glowing brightly before a pair of eye beams were shot out. Metal Gear X managed to move back in time however.
Fox and Falco then fired their lasers at the Wily Machine but it didn't seem to do much. Wily laughed at their attempts to shoot him down and said, "I'll show you what a real laser is!" The eye beams were fired in their direction again and the duo quickly got away. "Now have a taste of this!" The mouth opened up but instead of fire coming out, three eggs were shot out continuously and when the struck the floor, they cracked and miniature versions of the Wily Machine were born out of it.
"Aw, how cute!" Falco commented sarcastically. One of the mini robots walked towards him and shot out a beam from its mouth, but he easily stepped aside to avoid it and then gave the robot a kick to the head to smash it away.
Another one headed for Mario but he jumped over it and then picked it up from behind before running towards the big one and hurled it at the face of the skull. The mouth opened and breathed out fire at him and Mario quickly leaped out of the way. "You're not getting away that easily!" Wily shouted. The Wily Machine spun around suddenly and whipped its tail at the airborne Mario and smashed him into the wall across the room.
"YA!"
CRASH
"I'm not dead yet!" Wario shouted, running for the machine. The tail was swung at him next and he caught onto the tip of it but was then lifted into the air where the tail swung left to right trying to get him off. Wario eventually lost his grip and was hurled across the room, flattening Mario with his butt.
"Looks like I should beef it up a little bit, heheheh!" Willis said. The tip of the tail opened up and a spike ball came out of it and it extended to where Mario and Wario were in order to crush them.
"Watch out!" Sonic shouted. He rushed up to the tail and gave it a kick that caused it to sway off of its direction. The tail came back to him afterwards though and Sonic took a direction hit to himself and was blown across the place. "Wua!"
"Saur! Get the tail!" Red shouted as he sent out his Venusaur. Saur unleashed a pair of vines and grabbed the tail to restrain it. While he was doing this, the remaining mini robot came up to him from behind to attack, but Green's Charizard suddenly showed up and punched the robot away.
"Destroy the tail, Charizard!" Green commanded. The Charizard lifted up his claw and slammed it down onto the tail forcefully and managed to break through the exterior armor. Saur then bent the tail as hard as he could using his vines and then he managed to tear off the tip.
"How dare you?!" Wily shouted. The skull faced them and breathed out the stream of fire. Charizard took a deep breath and countered with his own Flamethrower attack and both the flames fought to overcome each other.
While still breathing fire, the right arm of the Wily Machine transformed into an arm cannon and fired plasma shots at Charizard. The dragon Pokemon didn't see this coming and was shot in the body and fell back in pain and the fire washed over him. "Charizard!" Green gasped.
"You're next!" The Wily Machine aimed at Green next and fired the plasma shot and he quickly leaped out of the way to avoid it.
"Saur! Use Energy Ball!" Red commanded. Green light came out from the flower on the back of the Venusaur and then a green ball with a leaf inside it was formed and shot at the Wily Machine, blasting it in the body, but asides from pushing the machine back a single step, it didn't do much.
"You think you can do something with that?" Wily asked. The machine breathed out fire at him and Green acted fast and sent out his Golduck.
"Hydro Pump!" he shouted. The Golduck opened his mouth and took a deep breath before releasing a powerful blast of water current that easily doused out the fire and went into the mouth of the machine. This caused the area around the mouth of the Wily Machine to short circuit and steam was released in large amounts.
"Damn you!" Wily cursed.
"My turn again!" Snake said. He controlled the Metal Gear X to launch out missiles and struck the machine all over its body and then the robot itself charged at the machine and delivered a powerful punch into its body. This punch not only sent the Wily Machine sliding backwards, but it also created dent on the chest.
"Argh! Take this!" Wily shouted. The mouth opened and shot out eggs with hatched into mini robots, but before they could take a step forward, Ike dashed past them and caused them to break down in half before performing his signature move.
"Aether!" He threw the sword into the air and as it was spinning, he jumped and caught it by the handle and brought id down in front of the machine's face, cutting through it. The cut was not very deep however and didn't the machine overall. When Ike landed, the machine swung its arm at him to hit him but used his bare hands and easily stopped the blow.
"What the?!" Wily gasped in shock as he couldn't believe how much physical strength Ike possesses.
Ike then rolled to the side fast and sliced off the hand afterwards, leaving the Wily Machine with only the right hand. Next he plunged his sword into the floor and fire erupted from the underneath the machine's left foot and blasted it to the side. The Wily Machine almost fell over, but managed to retain its balance. "Argh! I'm angry!" Wily shouted. "I'll flatten you all!" The Wily Machine hovered up into the air thanks to the burners underneath its feet.
"It's flying!" Fox gasped.
The Smashers watched as the shadow of the machine loomed over them and then the burners underneath the feet stopped and the machine came falling down. They freaked out and thus quickly got of the way to avoid getting flattened. When the machine landed, a shockwave was released and the Smashers were all blown onto the floor. "How'd you like that?" Wily asked as the machine took off into the air again.
"Whether you are in air or land, you are not safe from me!" ROB said, and then he took off into the air after Wily. Missile packs came out from his body and he launched a volley of missiles that struck the machine all over the body.
"Don't get too cocky!" Wily yelled back. The right hand changed into the arm cannon again and he fired rapidly at ROB who flew around fast to avoid getting shot and he would fire back with his missiles too. As ROB was avoiding the shots, the tail suddenly lashed at him and caught him off guard, knocking him into the wall. Wily immediately fired his plasma shots at ROB and blasted him back onto the floor.
BANG!
"Now I'm going to stomp you to death!" Wily shouted. The Wily Machine descended towards where ROB is with it one foot sticking towards him to stomp him, but then the Metal Gear X came up from below and rammed into the body of the Wily Machine and pushed it back across the air. "Gugh!"
"If any one of us here dies because of you, you're dead meat yourself!" Snake said in a threatening voice. He pressed some button combinations on the controller and the right arm of the Metal Gear X transformed into a machine gun and fired rapidly at the body of the machine. The tail was suddenly swung at the Metal Gear X but Snake saw it coming and quickly steered the robot out of the way in time. "Now's your chance, Falco!"
Falco, who had been grabbing onto the back of Metal Gear X, stepped up over the robot and leaped into the air where body released fire. "Have a load of this!" he shouted. "Fallen Phoenix Dive!" As the fire burned brightly, he charged forward and spun like a drill, smashing into the right shoulder really hard.
SMAAAAAAAAAASH!!!
With such a large amount of power put into this impact, he tore through the right shoulder and therefore dismembered the right arm from the body completely. Falco fell down in a free diving position and landed with ease. "Why you?! Wily growled in rage. "Don't think it's over yet!"
Sonic was then seen doing the amazing feat of running up the wall and he kicked off it into the air and curled up into a ball before launching himself at the machine, leaving behind a trail of blue streak too. He rammed into the cockpit really hard and made cracks on the glass. The impact also made the machine soar back a few meters.
"This settles it! You guys are dead meat this time!" The Wily Machine moved to the back of the room and then fell back down onto the floor. The stomach then opened up to reveal a laser cannon inside. "Behold the strongest offense this machine has to offer!"
"It's a stomach beam! Watch out!" Fox shouted.
"Don't think you can run from it so easily!" Wily continued. "Its size will keep on increasing until the whole room is blotted out! There will be no place for you to hide!"
"What do we do?!" Red cried.
The opening of the cannon started to charge up with large amount of energy and Smashers panicked on what to do. "Let's destroy it before it fires!" Ike suggested.
Wario then happened to see the severed arm of the Wily Machine lying next to him and something came up to his hand. Acting fast, he picked it up and started spinning in circles as many times as he could and then hurled the arm at the machine with full power. "Wild Swing Ding!"
SLAAAAAAAAAAAAM!!!!!
When the arm was stuck into the cannon, the cannon started to release sparks from around it. "What the!? What's happening?!" Wily gasped as he continued to pound the controls and Reggae snickered for no reason.
BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANG!!!!!
That was the sound of the cannon exploding and a large portion of the Wily Machine's body was torn away afterwards. "Whoa… It worked better than I thought!" Wario said.
"DAMMIT!!!! HOW DARE YOU DO THIS?!" Wily shouted. "There shouldn't be anything blocking the cannon while it is charging! This will cause the energy to explode inside the machine instead! Now look at what you've done!"
"Why should I care?"
"Heh, thanks to Wario, the danger has subsided," Fox said.
"Saves me the trouble of taking it down myself too," Ike added.
"Don't think it's over yet!" Wily shouted. When he tried to move the Wily Machine forward, the leg lifted up a bit but then dropped back to the floor. "Dammit! The controls are ruined thanks to you guys!"
Fox walked up to him and said, "Then that makes things all the easier." He then bent down onto the floor and stood on all four as fire started to come out all around him. "Time to put an end to your evil ways!" Intense fire covered his body and nine large tails made of fire appeared behind him and waved around in the air, and then he rushed forward at a really fast speed. "Nine-Tailed Fire Fox!"
Wily could do nothing but watch the 'demon' Fox charge at him. With a swing of his hand, the fiery aura around Fox reached forward like an extendable arm and slashed across the machine, tearing it into pieces in a single swipe.
SLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASH!!!!!!!!!!!
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!" Both Wily and Reggae were thrown out of the cockpit when the Wily Machine was demolished by Fox and they fell onto the floor with a thud alongside all the machine parts that were the remains of the dinosaur-like machine.
Wily bent over on the floor and started throwing tantrums angrily. "ARGH!!! WHY MUST THIS HAPPEN?!?! WHY CAN'T I EVER BEAT YOU GUYS??!?!! YOU PEOPLE ARE GETTING AS ANNOYING AS THAT BLUE BOMBER ALREADY!!!!"
The Smashers walked over to him and Red said, "It's your loss! Now hand over Jirachi at once!"
Wily glared at him angrily, "It's not over yet! I still have Jirachi with me and I can get back at you guys once I have my wish granted!"
"Give eet up-a already!" Mario said to him.
"Right, there is nothing you can do now," Green said. "We can just go over to where Jirachi is and set it free. And seeing how you have already lost, I think it wouldn't hurt to tell you the correct method to get your wish granted." Wily was surprised to hear this and so perked his ears to listen carefully. "In order for Jirachi to grant your wish, you must let it open its third eye first."
"The third eye?" Wily said curiously.
"Right; Jirachi has a third eye on its stomach," Green explained. "If you tell it your wish while its third eye is open, your wish will be granted. When the third eye will open is up Jirachi's mood. If it is willing to grant your wish, it will open its eye. However, it is said that opening its eye by force is possible too. Either way, all you have to do is to make him open his third eye if you want your wish granted."
"Heheheh! I see! No wonder my wish to obtain power even greater than the Great Powers isn't granted!" said Wily, glad at the fact that he finally learned the truth. "All I have to do is to make it open its third eye, even if it means to use force!"
"Too bad you'll never get that chance now," Ike said, walking over to Wily and lifting him up by the shoulder and picking Reggae up by its neck. "You're coming with us quietly and pay for what you have done."
"Please… I'm wrong… Spare me…" he cried.
"You can tell that the court," Samus said.
"All right! Now all we have to do is find Jirachi and this will be over!" Red said excitedly.
"Is everyone here all right?" Snake asked.
"I am all right," ROB said. "The damage is of minimum level and there is no concern in my health."
"I'm all right-a," Mario said.
All of a sudden, the entire place shook violently and everyone was startled badly by it. "What's that?!" Snake asked in shock. "An earthquake?!"
The shaking became even more violent and pieces of the ceiling started to fall down. "What the?! What's happening?!" Wily cried.
"You mean this isn't your doing?" Ike asked him. "I thought you were up to something again."
"No! This has nothing to do with me!" Wily claimed.
As the place continued to shake, a loud voice suddenly roared throughout the whole place and frightened everyone. "FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIL HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARDER!!!!!!!!!!!!! GYAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!"
TO BE CONTINUED
OH MY GOD!!! This isn't the final battle?! There's still more?! What is happening at the end?! This is getting more and more intense!
