A/N: Cerebus syndrome AWAY!

By the way, guys. I'm appreciating the diverse reviews/critique. It really puts a smile on my face. Thanks.

I also apologize for the wait. Fandomstuck has taken over my life.

AND WRITER'S BLOCK. FUUUUU

Oh, and more newcomers to join the fun.


The Villager blinked, noticing the Star Warrior rising from his slumber.

"O-Oh. Meta Knight. H-Hey. Look, don't get mad, but—"

"I... I think I know what you're going to say. I still need rest, right?"

The Villager nodded, to which Meta Knight then asked, "H-How are things going?"

"N-Not well... They're still missing and no one can find them. But on the bright side, Wii Fitt Trainer should almost be here."

Meta Knight gulped, shivering. "Damn it..."
I have to do something to find out where they're at.


Scared.

Yes that was the perfect way to describe their feelings.
They couldn't comprehend this situation.
It didn't make any sense...


"So, what are we gonna do now?" Villager asked, trailing behind Meta Knight.

"I'm... I'm not sure. I-I just..." He froze. "I-I'm... Just... I don't know."

The Star Warrior didn't know what else to do. He was overcome by fear and concern that is was almost as if it was worming its way into his body, like a parasite. He needed more help, but even with that, there appeared to be no hope. For the first time, he felt as if he were broken, no chance of being fixed.

"Hey, Mr. Meta Knight?" A small voice piped up.

"Huh? Pichu?" Meta Knight knelt down. "Wh-What's up?"

"Er, there's a newcomer and I think he can help you." Pichu stated, grinning.

"Newcomer?" The Villager wondered.


"Megaman? Do you have any theories?" Rosalina asked.

"Well... One. I have to explain it, though." The Blue Bomber started. "For starters, the situation looks impossible. No clues, no motives, no inkling as to where they could be hiding. It seems... Weird."

"Should we... Meet up with Meta Knight?"

"We should."


"GOD DAMN, WHY SHOULD WE WAIT HERE AND LET THEM DO MOST OF THE WORK?!" Charizard roared. "For all we know, Pikachu could be getting his insides ripped out!"

Squirtle shuddered. "L-Look, the newcomer can help us!"

Ivysaur nodded. "Yes. Don't worry Charizard. He can help them."

"Who can help us?" Meta Knight asked, approaching the Kanto Pokemon.

"Er, Villager. You heard, right?" Squirtle said.

"Nooope." The child shrugged.

"Can you just tell us who this newcomer is? Please?" Meta Knight groaned.

"Well, like us, he got transformed into a human." Charizard explained. "And he's a Pokemon."

"Really, now?" Meta Knight was curious.

"Really." An unfamilar voice drawled.

Meta Knight immediatley froze. "...Who's standing behind me?"

"A MOTHERFUCKING NINJA! HOLY SHIT!" The Villager squealed.

"...Ninja?" Now Meta Knight was really curious.

Turning around, he came face to face with a stranger. Blue hair, a pale pink scarf that covered his mouth and neck. He was decked all out in dark and light shades of blue, wave patterns scattered about.

"Greninja is my name. Pleasure to meet you. Though, I wish my introduction didn't involve me as a human." The stranger muttered. "I'm surprised you haven't heard yet, Villager. Charizard and I are the new Pokemon representatives."

Somewhere, in the mansion, a voice screamed, "GOD DAMN IT!"

Charizard chuckled. "Anyway, he said he wanted to help you find the first Pokemon representative, and his friends."

"Oh. W-Well then... Thank you very much." Meta Knight exclaimed, bowing a little.

Although they couldn't see it, it was obvious that Greninja was smiling. "It's no trouble. Now, would you kindly give me some details."

The Star Warrior and Villager explained as best as they could about the issue, the Kalos Pokemon paying close attention. Once the explaining was done, Greninja turned around, as if he was pondering.

"Tell me something; does anyone have a motive?" He asked.

"Motive?" The Villager tilted his head.

Squirtle and Ivysaur looked as if they were trying to refrain from saying something. Charizard spoke up. "Alright. I will admit, I don't like the punks, but even I wouldn't go that far. Plus, my hatred would mainly run for Pikachu. The other two, I don't really care."

"Exactly my point!" Greninja snapped. "Who would hold a grudge against all three? Where could they hide the missing smashers?"
He paced around. "And why is this hiding spot so well hidden? There is a somewhat infinite amount of places to hide; but... In our vicinities... Finite! How can one smasher hide three?"—he faced the others—"Even if there was more than one kidnapper, even if they hid our friends in different places; where could they be hidden? Who is smart enough to hide them in such an area, that no one has yet to find? And why? What's the motive? The goal? More importantly, where are the clues? There has to have been at least one! Who is stealthy enough, and harbor such a grudge?"

Silence fell upon the other smashers after Greninja's ramble ended.

Meta Knight's eyes widened. "No one has a grudge."

"Exactly." Greninja drawled.

The Villager grinned. "Yeah! It makes sense!... Kinda."

"So some sick bastard is doing this FOR KICKS?!" Charizard hissed.

"It appears so." Ivysaur muttered.

"W-Wait, so you guys know who did it?!" Megaman gasped.

Soon, the room was nearly crowded with all smashers.

"We have ideas." Squirtles stated.

"The crook appears to have no motives and is incredibly sneaky." Greninja explained.

"...Or is he sneaky? For all we know, he—or she— could have tricked them!" Sonic snapped.

"Yeah! Trickster!" Toon Link hissed.

"Yes, but who could have tricked them?" Snake questioned.

...

Meta Knight began to twitch, hand on the hilt of his blade, eyes turning bloodred. "MOTHERFUCKER!"

He stormed off with incredible speed, leaving the others in shock.

"Me'thinks he found our culrpit." Greninja muttered; following the knight post haste, the other newcomers trailing behind, as well as the other smashers.

The Star Warrior led them to the Ancient Minister's room. Groans followed, and Meta swore he heard someone say 'are you shitting me?'. He was about to break the doors down, when they opened, and he stormed in.

He was greeted to the sight of Wii Fit Trainer, comforting a scared Pikachu, a crying Yoshi, and a fuirous Wolf. Meta Knight rushed up to the four; the three other members of the group rushing up to him.

"Y-You... All of you are alright!" Meta Knight cried. "I-I... I... I-I was so worried... I-I thought... You guys were..."

"W-We're okay... F-For now..." Pikachu replied, body still shaking.

"AH! MY EXPERIMENT WORKED." The Ancient Minister stated, approaching the smashers. "I WANTED TO SEE HOW STRONG THE BOND WAS, AND IT WAS STRONG. I ASKED A DITTO TO TRANSFORM INTO META KNIGHT TO BRING YOU THREE TO THE LITTLE PRISON ROOM. AND IT WORKED."

"Yes. It did..." Wolf growled.

"W-We were afraid and thought you betrayed us." Yoshi whimpered.

"And since no one was coming to help us, it seemed like the truth." Pikachu added.

"Betray you guys? I know I went insane a few times, but I would never resort to that!" Meta Knight pointed out. "We're comrades — friends — and don't forget that! I fainted when trying to find you! I had to drag the other smashers, even the newcomers, down with me just to find you guys! In conclusion; we were put under a lot of stress so that we can find you guys because we care for you!"

"All the more reason to do this!" Pikachu stated, standing up. He reached into Yoshi's backpack, and pulled out an egg bomb—"FUCK YOU!"—then chucked it at the Ancient Minister.

Who avoided it.

"ALRIGHT. I DESERVED THAT. BUT AT LEAST NO ONE IS GETTING PUNISHED!"

"You are one corrupted soul." Greninja groaned.


A/N: Yup.
So, Charizard is now an official smasher, not Pokemon Trainer. I was actually somewhat surprised, and like others, simply shrugged it off and said, "Cool."
However, when Greninja came up, I clapped my hands and said "Awesome." (Others freaked out, and to be honest, I was on the verge of freaking out.)

I'm sorry if that was anti-climatic, but that was the best I could come up with. I want to move on with the plot, so I really don't want to dwell on this arc anymore.
