Everyone would walk through the doors as they worked their way to the throne room, and then they climbed up the stairs where they soon met Bowletta, sitting all casually on the throne. "So, you've made it… and you've made a mess of my castle!"

BGM: Cackletta's Theme (Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga plus Bowser's Minions)

"Bowletta!" Ruby exclaimed. "It's time for you to get out of Bowser's body and leave this place for good!"

"Nyeh heh heh heh! You really think some mere weapons will try and stop me?" Bowletta smirked. "This little small army… HA! You may try… but you will fail!"

"My my, cocky are we?" Claude smirked.

"I've evolved into something more. I am more powerful than you realize! While it is true that I've been beaten by some sassy child… I will not fall for the same mistake twice. I will go all out on you!"

"And let me guess, rule the world?" Sothis rolled her eyes.

"You are correct! Once I conquer the Beanbean Kingdom, I will then conquer the Mushroom Kingdom, and then Sarasaland, and then all of Remnant! Who knows where I'll conquer next!"

Yang cocked her gauntlets. "Conquering Remnant? There will be a lot of huntsmen and huntresses that will put a stop to that idea… and you're looking at a few of 'em!"

"Not to mention two heroes of the Mushroom Kingdom!" Nora said.

"Two badass princesses to boot!" Daisy declared as Peach nodded.

"A couple of students too… and one of them is quite handsome." Claude said, earning an elbow from Dimitri. "Mmmph! What?"

"We got a Scottish Girl with us." Marnie said. "I don't think she needs an explanation."

"We also have a Goddess with us… so uh… good luck with that." Hop said. "Oh, and these guys." He pointed over to Luminary and his friends.

"And you have Bowser's loyal minions!" General Guy said. "We will take you down, no questions asked!"

"Yeah! And there's a lot more of us than what you are lookin' at!" Gloria said. "There's a whole bunch of folk you don't wanna mess with… like that ragtag group you call the Smashers! Those mates will beat the shite out of ya without breakin' a sweat!"

"They won't be worth anything once I rise to power and kick their sorry butts to the curb!" Bowletta cackled. "Your resolve is to stop me? Well now, if you wish to fight me and take me out so badly… then let us begin the fight!"

End BGM

She got up from her throne and jumped into the air. She slammed into the ground between the group as a fiery ring surrounded them. "BRING IT ON!" She roared.

BGM: Bowletta Battle (Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga plus Bowser's Minions)

Ruby and Yang jumped over to Bowletta and swung their weapons at her but she blocked them easily with her hands. She smirked and breathed fire, only for Nora and Luigi to jump into the air and swung their hammers down on top of her, hitting her in the head to stop her from burning the sisters. Bowletta felt something grab her tail as she turned to see Mario attempting to spin her around, but Bowletta retreated into her shell and started rolling, tossing Mario away as she got back up and punched the ground as plumes of fire shot out and attempted to hit Edelgard and Dimitri, but they rolled over to avoid the attack.

Sothis launched Bolganone at Bowletta, but the latter breathed fire to counter the Bolganone, making a huge explosion that covered the arena in smoke. Daisy and Peach ran inside as Daisy Crystal Punched Bowletta in the gut and then Peach brought out her Golf Club and swung at her head, then called out Shurei and had her use Hydro Pump to send Bowletta out of the smoke. She noticed Akame and Xena running toward her as she let out a cackle and swung her claws, but Xena made a platform for Akame to have to jump onto, as Akame dodged while Xena blocked the claws with her katana. Akame jumped off and slashed downward to knock Bowletta back. Bowletta responded by punching Akame in the gut and knocked her away, but Byleth grabbed a hold of her. "Thanks." Akame said as she got back up.

Claude aimed his bow at Bowletta as Ren did the same with his Ren Bow, as they both fired arrows at her but she deflected them with her arms as she noticed Jade Gadd aiming her Poltergust at her and shot her with the Ice Element, making her jump back, only to get hit by a Crabhammer from Gloria's Kingler and an Aura Wheel from Marnie's Morpeko. Bowletta dug into the ground and picked up some rubble, and then threw it at the group, but Kamek threw magic at the rubble, turning It into water as it harmlessly fell on the group. Bowletta proceeded to breathe fire at Kamek but he teleported out of the way, then got shot in the arm by Roman's cane. He let out a smirk while Neo ran over with Marnie and Princess Jade where Bowletta clawed at Neo, but she blocked it with her umbrella as Marnie rushed in and slashed at Bowletta repeatedly while the princess unleashed Crushed Ice on her.

"Argh! Cold!" Bowletta growled as she punched Jade away and then got shot in the shoulders a few times as she looked up to see Mine and Iris shooting her in the shoulders as Bowletta kicked Neo back and then got into her shell, and rolled toward her while catching on fire. Mine and Iris' eyes widened and jumped out of the way to avoid the fiery shell. Bowletta got back up as a shield slammed into her as she turned around, only to get slashed away by Jaune and Luminary, and then got hit with a Kacrackle and Zammle from Veronica and Rab, then Mario ran in and hammered her in chest then swung for an uppercut, knocking her high in the air as Mario gave Pyrrha a boost and then Pyrrha fire punched Bowletta to the ground, making a giant crater.

Bowletta got up as she saw Edelgard, Hilda and Dimitri running toward her as they swung their weapons at her but she blocked the attacks as she backhanded Hilda and Edelgard, but Dimitri stood strung as he thrusted his spear into her a few times, but then Bowletta punched Dimitri in the gut to make him bend over and then when he looked up, Bowletta clawed his face. "AAAGH!" Dimitri yelled.

"Dimitri!" Edelgard yelled as Bowletta kicked Dimitri back but Sothis went to grab him. "Are you okay?!"

"Nnngh… I'm fine…" Dimitri said, as blood was gushing out of his eye socket and his eye was closed.

"Oh no, you're not." Byleth said, immediately seeing through it. "Serena, heal him up!"

"Right!" Serena nodded, using Moreheal on him while being pulled away as Edelgard and Claude took a look at their friend… where they saw that Bowletta clawed his eye out.

"Ooooh…" Claude winced. "I predict that you're gonna be a pirate soon." He said as Edelgard elbowed him in the arm. "What? Can't lighten the mood?"

Pyrrha took off her scarf and handed it to Dimitri. "Here, use this to cover it up." She said.

"Thank you…" Dimitri said, taking the scarf and wrapping it around his eye.

"We'll get that looked at later." Byleth said.

"Heh… I have to say… you're more trouble than you look!" Bowletta said. "But no matter… I will prevail!"

"And how will you do that?" Erik asked.

"Simple… THIS!" She yelled, as a Time Bob-omb walked over to them. "SAY GOODBYE! NYEH HEH HEH-"

End BGM

The Time Bob-omb lit up… but it didn't explode. "HEH… heh… he-wha? What's going on? Where's the kaboom? There's supposed to be a party blowing kaboom! What happened?"

"You can thank me for that!" Xena said.


A few seconds ago

Xena's eyes widened when she saw the Time Bob-omb. "Uh oh…" She whispered and then pulled out her Poke Ball that Gloria gave her. "Screamy, help me out here! Please!" She said, trying her best not to panic as her Wooper came out.

"Woopah!" Screamy smiled and noticed the Time Bob-omb about to explode. "Woop!" It said and then Mist came out of its gills to surround the arena.


Back in the present

"WOOPAH!" Screamy yelled happily.

"Thanks little guy!" Xena smiled.

"You turned my Time Bob-omb into a dud?! Why you good for nothing…" Bowletta growled.

"Ha! What are you gonna do now?" Claude asked. "Your sneak attack didn't work, so what are you gonna do about it?"

Bowletta smirked. "Don't worry… I have a Plan B!"

Luminary readied himself. "Get ready… I'm not sure what'll happen." He said as Bowletta snapped her fingers.

"URGH!"

"GAAAAAH!"

Plan B just so happened to drop an army of Thwomps on everyone to immediately take them out.

"If bombs won't work, Thwomps will!" Bowletta said. "Nyeh heh heh heh!" She cackled as the Thwomps went back up into the ceiling. "Now then… GET IN MY BELLY!" She yelled, sucking them all up.


Deep inside Bowletta's belly…

"Ugh…" Mario was the first to wake up. "Where are we…?"

"By the looks of it… I think we're… inside Bowletta." Luigi said.

"WE'RE WHERE?!" Weiss yelled before groaning. "First Hades, now we're inside Bowser's body? Ugh! What's next, we go inside an alien Yoshi's belly?"

"An alien Yoshi… that'd be kinda neat." Yang said. "Still though… we need to get out of here."

"When I pictured how I was gonna go out… being eaten was not how I pictured it." Erik said.

"Soooo, any ways to getting out of here?" Daisy asked.

"Please! The thought of being inside Bowser's body does not do well with me…" Peach groaned.

"What! You guys are still alive?" A voice asked as they turned to see Cackletta's Soul approaching. "You are a persistent bunch! But no matter, I will win this!"

Serena, without even flinching, used Omniheal on everyone. "We got this!"

"We sure do!" Ruby said. "Belly or not, Cackletta's going down once and for all!"

Gloria and Hop looked at each other and with a nod, they called out Zacian and Zamazenta for the battle.

"Lrrrrooooard!"

"Griiiieeeeeld!"

"Nyeh heh heh heh! Bring it on!"

BGM: The Last Cackletta (Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga plus Bowser's Minions)

Cackletta began the battle by swinging her arms widely, hitting Luminary and Akame, but they quickly recovered as they swung at her chest, but she quickly blocked the chest and backhanded the two. Mario and Pyrrha both unleashed a stream of fire on the left hand as the right hand called upon some lightning and struck Yang, making her fall on one knee but she shook it off as Cackletta punched her, but Yang returned the punch, the two fists colliding as Blake summoned her Claws and clawed through the arm as Chelsea threw needles at the other arm as it was trying to hit Tatsumi and Mine.

Cackletta smirked, conjuring up a fireball with her left hand and threw it at Jaune, making him block the attack but it was enough to make him stumble a bit. Ren went running in, shooting at Cackletta's head but the hands blocked her face so he ended up shooting her arms. "Hmm… get rid of the arms! Those things are gonna be a pain to deal with if we don't take them out!" Jade Gadd said.

"Got it! Sacred Sword!" Gloria ordered.

"Moonblast!" Hop ordered as Zacian went running at Cackletta and swung the sword down with Sacred Sword, slicing the left arm and destroying it while Cackletta got a healthy helping of Moonblast, the right arm getting struck hard and disappearing.

"Augh!" Cackletta yelled. "You good for nothing PESTS!" She exclaimed as time stopped for everyone, then she fired eye lasers at Sylvando and Bede, striking them down.

"Ooof!" Sylvando got back up. "What just hit me?" He wondered before charging at Cackletta.

"No idea…" Bede said, shaking it off and had Gardevoir use Dazzling Gleam on Cackletta. Nora and Luigi banded together and fired a massive lightning bolt on the head right when Veronica used a Kacrackle on her head.

"AUGH!" Cackletta yelled, her head disappearing and her heart came out of her body.

"That's her heart! Let's wail on it!" Yang said.

"I got it covered!" Nora said. "Daisy! Let's do this!"

"Right!" Daisy nodded, punching the ground and forming diamond spikes where Nora slammed her hammer into the spikes and created mini diamonds as Ruby's eyes widened and quickly went for a Ruby Tornado, as the diamonds spun around and creating a diamond tornado, then Ruby summoned her Ruby Palm and fired a blast, sending the Diamond Tornado toward Cackletta, as the diamonds shredded her heart before the diamonds turned into dust.

"YEAH! HOW DO YOU LIKE THAT DIAMOND STORM?!" Nora yelled, high fiving Ruby and Daisy as they heard groaning as they turned around to see Cackletta reforming her arms and head.

"How DARE you!" Cackletta yelled, swinging her arms wildly while also having lightning and fire rain down on the group as Zamazenta let out a howl to boost everyone's attack power as Yang let out a Hadoken to the arm while Erik used Ridgeraiser on Cackletta before running in with Princess Jade and slashing at the arms while the latter jumped in the air and used Lightning Thrust to deal serious damage to the heart, while the lightning also hit the head as well. Cackletta stopped time and hit Luminary and Byleth, knocking them down but they got back up as Sothis unleashed a Bolganone on the arms.

Edelgard and Hilda ran toward the heart as the arms tried to whack them away, but Claude, Mine and Iris shot the arms to stop them and then Edelgard and Hilda swung their axes down to hit the heart,and then they ducked as Byleth swung the Sword of the Creator and hit the heart as well, then they jumped back as Cackletta started leaning on the ground. "Uuuugh…" Cackletta groaned.

End BGM

"We got her on the ropes! We can do this!" Yang said.

"No… I'm just getting started! YAAAAAAAAH!" Cackletta yelled, healing herself up and turning red with anger, as she was enraged with fury. "YOU FOOLS DO NOT KNOW WHO YOU ARE MESSING WITH!"

"Second phase… why do I have a feeling we're in this for the long haul?" Weiss asked.

"We'll just have to keep fighting!" Byleth said. "We'll give her everything we got!"

BGM: Rivers in the Desert (Persona 5 Scramble)

Cackletta roared and breathed out a black smog that covered the entire area before all of them were hit by lightning attacks. Nora was the only one who absorbed the attacks as she jumped out of the smog and hammered Cackletta in the head, knocking the spirit back as the smog disappeared as Zacian and Zamazenta charged at Cackletta as the former used Iron Head and the latter used Laser Focus before Crunching down on her right arm. Cackletta launched fireballs at the group, but Pyrrha and Jaune both blocked this with their shields where Dimitri ran over and impaled Cackletta in the heart. Cackletta let out a growl and backhanded Dimitri away.

Mario ignited the Fire Brand and then launched a stream of fire at Cackletta, but she blocked this with her hands as she snapped her fingers as explosions hit the arena and hit JINX, as Xena went wide eyed and closed her eyes, trying to block out the explosions as Byleth put a comforting hand on Xena as the latter smiled at this and calmed down. Xena summoned some platforms as Tatsumi and Akame jumped up on the platforms and slashed down on the head as Cackletta aimed her right hand and launched a stream of fire at Peach, but she rolled out of the way and had Shurei use Hydro Pump on the fire to diffuse it.

Neo ran over to Cackletta as the latter swung her arms at Neo, but she opened up her umbrella to block this as Marnie jumped over and slashed at Cackletta's arm, then Morpeko hit her with an Aura Wheel and then Neo's umbrella popped the blade out as she went and stabbed Cackletta a few times as Roman shot the heart with his cane while Rab unleashed a Kacrack on her. Cackletta swung her arms, not caring that the Ridgeraiser was stabbing her as she slammed her hands on the ground to create a shockwave that knocked everyone down as she then warped fireballs to them and hitting Ren, Roman, Neo and Gloria.

"Alright hag… let's rumble!" Gloria yelled, pulling Dragapult from her backpack and fired the mini Dreepy missiles and they slammed into Cackletta's head as Zacian slashed at Cackletta's arms. Cackletta responded by extending her arm to punch Gloria, but she jumped to the side while Zacian unleashed Sacred Sword and Zamazenta using Moonblast. Luminary noticed Cackletta's eyes moving and raised his shield right as time stopped and the laser hit his shield while another laser went soaring past Edelgard.

"Blast. I missed!"

"I see now." Luminary mused as he ran over and used Quadraslash to deal a lot of damage on Cackletta's arms as he jumped back… right as Ruby started glowing blue.

"RAAAAAAAH!" Ruby yelled, feeling pepped up. "Oh yeah! I'm feeling ready to roll!" She yelled, using her semblance to slam into Cackletta and slashing at her heart before jumping back and throwing her boomerang, where it cut through her head and returned to her while Sothis clapped her hands together and unleashed Excalibur Winds on her as Serena helped her out and used Kaswooshle to deal extra damage. Mario and Luigi both ran together as they hammered Cackletta before Luigi proceeded to use Knockback Bros, hitting Cackletta a few times as Mario added some fire to every hit and then he jumped away. Cackletta breathed out more smog, but together with Sothis and Serena, they blew it away with their wind magic as Claude fired an arrow with Ren at her chest as she raised her hands up and slammed the ground to create shockwaves to knock them down again and then backhanded Ruby, Iris and Xena while Nyx ran over and shot several arrows from her crossbow and then jumped back to avoid a backhand.

"Uuurgh… you are really ANNOYING!" Cackletta groaned as she fell on her arms again. "I refuse to lose… to the likes of YOU!"

"Well, too bad, you're gonna get destroyed soon. Any final words?" Claude asked.

"Nnngh… I will do anything… TO WIN!" Cackletta yelled before she started changing colors again.

End BGM

"What's she doing now?" Yang asked.

"Wait, look!" Weiss said as they saw her changing into a black color while her eyes turned green.

"She's fallen under Calasmos' influence!" Luminary said. "I see… so that's her game plan."

"What are we gonna do?" Ruby asked.

"We have no other choice. We have to put her down for good." Veronica said as Serena used Omniheal to heal everyone up.

"Let's move it, ladies! We got a job to do!" General Guy said.

BGM: Endless Battle (Dragon Quest XI S: Echoes of an Elusive Age)

"You will not escape my wrath!" Cackletta yelled, crossing her arms and unleashing Kacrackle on the gang, slamming into the ground and the exploding ice shards flew into them. She then hit them with a Kasizzle spell that knocked Jaune and Pyrrha off their feet. General Guy quickly aimed his Bullet Bill Blaster at her and pelted her with Bullet Bills with the help of Gloria's Dragapult. Luminary ran forward and slashed at Cackletta's heart. Cackletta cackled and used Kabuff on her, powering herself up as she launched lightning bolts on them, severely damaging Erik, Kamek and Mario as Hendrik got to her and unleashed Unbridled Blade on her.

"Heheheh… have some of this!" Cackletta unleashed Kasap on the group, depleting their defense… to which Veronica responded in kind by using Kasap as well. "Gah!"

"There, now we're even!" Veronica said as she hit her with a Kasizzle while Kamek fired a lightning spell on them while healing everyone up as Byleth ran over and slashed at Cackletta where she quickly punched Byleth, knocking her back but she quickly recovered as Sothis hit her with a Thoron before unleashing a Meteor attack, slamming it into Cackletta.

"Grrrr… DIIIIIE!" Cackletta yelled, throwing a dark spell over at Yang as she tried to block it with her arms, but it hit her anyway.

"AGH!" Yang yelled as she fell over limp.

"Yang! Get up! YANG!" Ruby yelled while everyone else stared in shock.

"I do not think so!" Serena said, using Kazing to bring her back up.

"Wah!" Yang sprang up. "What just hit me?!"

"That was a Thwack spell!" Luminary said. "If you get hit by that, there's a chance that it won't affect you… but it's basically a dark spell that will kill you if it has the chance." He said. "You should be lucky Serena used Kazing to bring you back to life."

"So that thing killed me?!" Yang yelled and then glared at Cackletta. "Oh, you miserable ugly bitch!"

"Now you fools realize… that I am not to be MESSED WITH!" Cackletta yelled, unleashing a Kacrackle on them but Sothis hit with a Bolganone to destroy it and then Mario had an idea and turned to Luigi as he threw a lot of fireballs up in the air as Luigi nodded in understanding as he readied his hammer and swung it down, unleashing fireball hell on her as she let out a grunt and proceeded to swing her arms around, but Zacian and Hendrik slashed the arms to sever them, but the arms regrew quickly and fired electricity and fire but Weiss pulled up a protective ice shield and then ran with Neo as the duo proceeded to impale her heart while Junior quickly brought out his wrecking ball and swung it at Cackletta's face. "Ooof!"

"Yeah! Eat it!" Junior yelled as Cackletta growled and tried to swipe at Junior but he avoided the swings as Princess Jade and Serena went over and they both unleashed Multithrust on her, and then the former unleashed Lightning Thrust to deal extra damage and then they jumped back, before getting hit by ice shaped missiles and hit them both. Kamek proceeded to heal them up as Yang and Nora jumped in and punched and hammered her, while the latter activated the Thunder Hand and delivered some powerful lightning swings, then time stopped as Cackletta fired powerful lasers from her eyes, hitting Bede, Gloria and Hop as they were knocked down.

"No!" Marnie yelled and glared at Cackletta who was cackling like crazy and unleashed a Bang to blow them up, but Xena had her Wooper out just in case if Cackletta tried any more explosive moves after the first wave of explosions hit.

"What! Where's the kaboom?" Cackletta asked. "You should've exploded!" She yelled.

"Screamy, Mud Shot!" Xena ordered.

"WOOPAAAAAAAAH!" Screamy yelled, throwing mud at her eyes.

"Gah!" Cackletta yelped, rubbing her eyes as Weiss opened up a few glyphs and fired icicles at the group while Veronica used Oomphle on the group to raise their attack power right as Hilda swung her axe down on her heart. "GAAAAAAAAH!"

"Oh! Wow, I don't even know my own strength. That's awesomely terrifying!" Hilda grinned as Edelgard and Dimitri ran in and swung their blades to deal extra damage while Marnie came rushing in and slashed the heart repeatedly with the Claws and then jumped back as Luminary unleashed Gigaslash on her as Cackletta roared in agony and fell on her arms.

"No… no! I will not… fail…! I can't… lose to… brats like you!" Cackletta groaned as the Legendary Wolves looked at each other and with a nod, they rushed at her and used Behemoth Blade and Behemoth Bash to seal Cackletta's fate. "NOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Cackletta yelled, lighting up as she reached for the group before exploding into darkness.

End BGM


Outside

"U-ugh… I don't feel so good…" Bowletta groaned as she started coughing out everyone as they crashed into the ground as Bowletta roared before falling to the ground in defeat as Cackletta's spirit came out of her mouth. "No… I can't believe… I lost… to you… I… I thought I'd win…"

"That's where you were wrong, Cackletta." Ruby said. "Even after all the stunts you pulled, you would have lost in the end… even if we fell, other people would have stopped you and they would have succeeded."

"Heheheh… if only… I got to see that…" Cackletta before fading away as Bowser's body returned to normal.

"Uuuuugh…" Bowser groaned as Roman stared at Bowser's body… before a lightbulb hit him in the head.

"I REMEMBER NOW!" Roman yelled. "I remember everything that has happened before I lost my memory!" He said and then looked down. "…Why do I look ridiculous…"

"Lit! Lit!"

"…And why is there a candle hugging my leg and WHY am I teamed up with Red and her group?"

"It's a long story…" Ruby said.

"Good news, friends!" Peasley came flying in. "I set this place up with explosives, so this place is gonna blow pretty soon!"

"YOU WHAT?!" Weiss yelled.

"Quick, we gotta get out of here!" Ruby said as they started running, but Roman stayed behind as he tried to pick up Bowser.

"Mmph, what'd you eat… a ton of bricks?" He asked as he saw Neo looking at him in concern. "Neo! Go! I'll be alright."

"Are you sure?" Neo signed.

"Of course… we've survived worse after all." Roman said, giving her a wink.

"Neo, come on!" Marnie called out as Neo turned to Marnie before turning to Roman.

"Go with your friends. I will be okay." He smiled as Neo hesitantly nodded and took off with Marnie. "Alright… let's get you out of here…" He said as he heard footsteps approaching them. He turned his head to see the Goomba Squad.

"Aw man, we missed the final battle?" Captain Goomba asked. "Oh! Lord Roman, you're back to normal?"

"Yes."

"Bahaha! Excellent!" Iggy said. "Also… why is this place rumbling?"

"Eh, it's probably because the Scottish Girl did a heck of a lot of damage to the interior." Wendy said.

"No… I think it's something else entirely." Ludwig said.

"Come on, let's get Lord Bowser out of here!" Lakitu exclaimed.

"Uuugh… what happened…?" Bowser asked.

"Lord Bowser! You're alive!" Captain Koopa said.

"Of course I'm alive, you numbskulls! Why wouldn't I be? …Why is the castle rumbling?"

"Well, I'm pretty sure that-"


Meanwhile, just outside

"Ohohohoho, man! I love this new camera I bought!" A Lakitu said. "The new X-1700 XL Camera with a huge TV screen! I can post whatever I want on Lakitube and the quality will be huge! I already got the landscape pretty well so now-… oh look, there's a giant flying whale with a bunch of people on it. Oh look, winged creatures are carrying other creatures out of the castle. I wonder what's going on?" He aimed the camera at the castle.

BOOOOOOM!

"Hohohoho, man! Look at that explosion! …Wait, what's that?"

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" Bowser, Roman and the Goomba Squad yelled as they were launched directly into the camera, completely shattering the glass before they started sliding and fell to the ground below.

"MY CAMERA! I JUST GOT THIS FOR MY BIRTHDAY!"


With the heroes

"Fare thee well, Cackletta!" Peasley smiled.

"Hey, you okay?" Nyx asked Xena who was covering her eyes and had her eyes closed.

"Yeah, I'm alright." Xena responded with a smile.

"Good, now let's go report to Queen Bean." Luminary said as they flew down.


With the Koopa Troop

"Phew… that was a close one." A Hammer Bro said. "Thanks for saving us."

"You're welcome." A Gryphon said as they landed safely in the fields where they noticed Bowser and the gang all piled up on the ground, all of them groaning.

"So uh… now what?" A Sledge Bro asked.

"Head home, I believe." A Goomba mused.


A little bit later

"I would like to thank you all for helping us with our problems." Queen Bean said as they were at the airport. "We are grateful for all that you've done it."

"You're welcome." Peach smiled. "I'm glad we were able to take care of Fawful and Cackletta."

"Oh… I'm about to get all teary eyed…" Lima said. "Toadsworth!"

"Oh, Lima!" Toadsworth cried as the two of them hugged, both of them crying their eyes out.

"'Till we meet again, everyone." Peasley said. "I will look forward to your next visit."

"Yeah, we'll come here vacationing and not getting blown up by Fawful and Cackletta!" Yang said as they all laughed.

"Oh, Peach… before you go…" Queen Bean said as a servant walked forward. "Consider this a parting gift!" She smiled as the servant presented a Pokemon Egg to her. "We found this in our courtyard and we thought it'd be the perfect gift from us to you."

"Aw, thank you!" Peach smiled as she took it. "I'll take good care of it." She said, gently rubbing the egg.

"Let's-a go, everyone." Mario said as they boarded Peach's plane while the Erdreans took Cetacia, except for Sylvando who had his ship at the ready. Peach's plane took off flying as the others followed them, while a beat up Koopa Cruiser followed shortly behind, with Bowser and Roman on deck groaning.

"I'm surprised Neo isn't with us." Larry said.

"I think she wanted to be with her other friends." Lemmy said.

"That'd explain why she was so eager to sit with a Pokemon Trainer and Luigi." Larry mused as they flew behind them until they landed safely at Bowser's Castle while the others landed at Sunshine Airport, as everyone was grateful to be back home in one piece.


For five minutes... can't you leave me alone so I can explore the ocean in peace... *glares at Sharpedo* FOR FIVE MINUTES!

...Oh! Sorry, I was busy playing the Isle of Armor DLC. How are y'all enjoying it? Personally, I think it's great and I love it... though, the Diglett hunt felt unnecessary (Glad it's optional but... really? Those were the rewards? I mean, i'll take it... but... wow!), the story felt a bit short and... ugh, the Sharpedo were really freakin' ANNOYING. Also, why is Slowbro the only new Galarian form? I feel like there should've been a few more Galarian forms... oh well.

But anyway, we're not done yet folks. We got one last chapter to do before it's finished. Hey, gotta do an epilogue, ya know?

Also, YAY! It's about time we got a Smash Direct on Monday! Now we can see who will be in the ARMS fighter! (Come on, Min Min... you got this, girl!)
