BGM: Just Wondering (Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories)
"Alright, while everyone was searching for Ruby, I was in my room throwing a pity party." Xena began. "My mental stability was getting worse after that incident in General Shroob's UFO and it was just a matter of time before all hell broke loose and I could never go back. Nyx came in to cheer me up and decided to take me to the Smash Mansion to get my mind off things. While we were there, we were discussing what to do about what to do with the Phantom Thieves and the Investigation Team. It was then that Iris suggested we go inside my mind."
"Well, it was more of a throwaway idea." Iris explained. "I didn't think it'd work but apparently Akira thought it was a good idea. So the next thing we knew, we went into Mementos and getting Umber, Byleth, Mewtwo and even Dr. Toadley involved. …Well, sort of, apparently he has this messenger bird that he has around in his office. It can also speak… for some reason."
"Yeah, then we fought Dark Xena in Mementos, but she held us against our will so she could fight Xena one on one." Nyx said. "Aaaaand… she lost."
"What?!" Ruby said in surprise.
"Yeah, it surprised us too." Jade nodded.
"We talked it out after that." Xena continued. "It turns out that the reason why Dark Xena was going on those rampages was because I was pushing her away when she was wanting to be one again. All of this started because of Ozpin pulling us out from therapy too early. She wanted revenge against King Bob-omb and was so consumed by it, it took you guys talking me out of it to calm her down. But it wasn't enough… you know how Mewtwo was using his abilities to try and fix it? Apparently, he was unwittingly making things worse… and in my dark self's words, he was being an asshole."
"Well… he usually is." Daisy said with a shrug.
"The cracks were getting worse… and not just from explosions, but from Mewtwo trying to help out." Xena continued. "It almost got to the point where the both of our minds would shatter and we'd be this empty husk roaming around until we'd have to be put down. When we were wondering how to become one, Yu told us I'd just have to accept her and that's what I did. We merged as one."
"And you can just let her take over?" Yang asked.
"Petty much." Xena nodded. "Gave these three a scare in our vacation. They thought it didn't work."
"Well, considering she nearly killed us in the UFO and what happened to us in Mementos…" Nyx shrugged. "We were a bit on edge, though we relaxed after Xena explained that Dark Xena has mellowed out."
"So yeah, after that, we decided to go on vacation. We found a Warp Pipe, but it turned out to be a Pipe Cannon and it shot us into space… where we ended up on Beach Bowl. We didn't think anything of it, we thought it was a nice vacation spot."
"And then I crashed your party!" Nora smiled nonchalantly.
Xena sweatdropped. "Yeah, you sure did…" She said. "So yeah, so that's what we've been up to." She then turned to Ruby. "So how about you? Where did you run off to?"
"I ran off to the Galar Region." Ruby said. "Dark Ruby did a number on my mentality so I thought it'd be best if I were to go with Bea and Gloria to Galar and train there for a while before heading back."
"You didn't bother telling anyone?" Iris asked. "I mean, you could've like… told someone."
Ruby chuckled nervously. "I wasn't thinking straight. Dark Ruby messed with my mind so much that I thought it'd be best that I trained alone for a while. I didn't mean to worry everyone… I didn't mean to make the news that I've been missing for a week. Heck, I didn't think I'd be gone for a week!"
"You were playing right into your dark self's hands… where she would pick you off at your weakest." Jade said. "Man, she really did a number on you. At least everyone was relieved they found you, right? No one was angry?" She guessed as RWBY looked at each other awkwardly. "Oooor… not."
"If I were to guess, Ruby had a big fight with her sister because the latter was so focused on being so carefree and tormenting K. Rool a lot that she wasn't there for her sister, right? Not to mention strained the relationship of your team?"
"Well… you definitely got it in one…" Yang said, rubbing her head.
"Wait, what? I got it right?" Nyx blinked in surprise. "Oh… wow, that's a surprise… I didn't think I'd be right."
"We went to the Isle of Armor where Master Mustard had to teach the lass how to ask her friends for help against Dark Ruby." Gloria explained. "It wasn't easy, but Ruby finally did it."
"Oh that's pretty cool!" Xena smiled.
"Soooo, now that we're all caught up, what are you gonna do now?" Blake asked. "Are you going to go back on vacation?"
"Honestly, I think we have had enough vacation for one trip." Jade said. "And well, considering we've now been dragged into this… we're going to help you take out Bowser again."
"Sweet!" Ruby grinned.
"Now we're talkin'!" Sonic chuckled.
"Sooooo, who are these guys?" Iris asked, referring to Hiyoko, Ibuki, and Travis.
"Hello~! Name's Ibuki Mioda and Ibuki is happy to meet ya!" Ibuki smiled.
"Is she speaking in the third person? Oh boy…" Dark Xena quietly said.
Hey, it could be worse. She could be a total bitch too. Xena told her.
"Eh, good point."
End BGM
As everyone was catching up, Rosalina would be looking at the Star Map deep in thought. Everyone was going off and collecting Power Stars left and right, leaving her by herself and the Lumas. She folded her arms and closed her eyes, then opened her eyes. She hated to leave the Lumas alone, but she knew Polari would keep an eye on them. She raised her wand up high as she started glowing. Everyone turned to the glowing light as they would see Rosalina having tied her hair into a ponytail, while also wearing a starry blue wetsuit, complete with goggles on her forehead and flippers on her feet.
"Uh, Rosie? What are you doing?" Palutena asked.
"I'm not just going to sit here and watch everyone get Power Stars. It's time I started doing something too." Rosalina explained as she started walking.
"Aw sweet, Rosie-chan is gonna help us collect Power Stars!" Ibuki cheered.
"Well, this should be good!" Hiyoko chuckled as they walked toward the Kitchen.
"Hello, Hiyoky!" A voice called as Hiyoko turned to see Caboose approaching her.
"Oh, hello Caboose. What's up?"
"What's up is… what was it again?" Caboose wondered, but then remembered. "Oh yes! You are another new friend I have made! But you and my other friends do not seem to get along. Friends should not fight, we should give each other a chance and get along."
"Mmm… I dunno, Caboose… those guys are really a bunch of idiots. Especially that Sarge guy."
"Ah, I wouldn't call them idiots. They're just a bunch of fun loving people who tend to do their own fun things. Sooooo, could you give 'em a chance for me? Once you get to know them, they're quite nice people!" Caboose then gasped. "And maybe we can have an ice cream social together!"
"Ooooh… alright, I'll give it a shot."
"Yay!" Caboose said, hugging Hiyoko as he walked off happily. "Thank you, Hiyolo!"
"It's Hiyok… ah never mind." Hiyoko said, deciding to let it slide. "…I feel so sorry for him." she sighed. "The nicest guy and he's roped up with those morons…"
"Whoa!" Palutena said as she saw the state of the kitchen. "This is it? Just a table and a furnace?"
"Yup." Rosalina nodded.
"…Oh this will not do at all." Palutena said as she disappeared in light, and then reappeared in a Builder outfit, complete with a few Centurions as she had blueprints in her arms. "Alright, the kitchen sink will go here, the oven will got there-"
"Wait, is this necessary?!" Rosalina said in surprise.
"Yes it is! Enjoy your time in the Galaxies." Palutena said as Rosalina pouted a bit before blasting off with the others. "Okay, the dishwasher will be perfect for this spot!"
BGM: Beach Bowl Galaxy (Super Mario Galaxy)
Rosalina would land on the ground as did a few others. Rosalina would immediately spot some camping gear on the sand as she let out a chuckle. She aimed her wand at the gear and sent them flying back to the Observatory, while also snapping her fingers on JINX's clothing. "There, now they won't be so cold." She said as she put her goggles on and dove underwater.
Beach Bowl Galaxy Star 2 - Passing the Swim Test - Pit and Ruby
"Wow, this place is beautiful!" Ruby said.
"It sure is." Pit nodded as they walked along the beach until they came across Coach.
"Oh hi there!" Coach greeted. "What can I do for you?"
"Oh, we're just looking around. Trying to find a Power Star." Ruby said.
"Power Star, hmm? You mean this?" He asked, pulling out the Power Star as both of their eyes widened in surprise.
"Holy crap, you have one?!" Pit said.
"Yes, but I'm not just going to give it away just like that. Students are to find a golden shell. If they find it and bring it back to me, then they will have this." He said. "Simple as that."
The couple looked at each other, and with a nod, the two of them dove into the water as they swam around. Both of them heard an explosion behind the as they turned around to see Rosalina swimming into a cavern. The two of them looked at each other and shrugged as they swam around, then spotting a penguin holding a Golden Shell while the others were chasing him around.
"You get back here with that!"
"Never!"
Ah geez, how are we gonna get that off his flippers? Pit wondered as Ruby pounded her fist into her palm and poked her boyfriend. He turned to her as Ruby, in sign language, started explaining.
First, we sneak up behind them, then we yank it off of his flippers and then we make a getaway!
Ohoho! When did you get so devious? Pit smirked as they swam forward, but not before finding a bubble of air to replenish their health as they swam behind the four penguins.
"Neener neener! You can't catch me!" The penguin boasted as Ruby used her semblance to catch up and grab a hold of the Golden Shell.
Yoink! Ruby giggled.
"Wah! What the heck?!"
Got it~! Ruby thought as she and Pit swam up together as they surfaced out of the water.
"Oh man, I never thought my girlfriend would be so devious!" Pit grinned, high fiving her as they walked over to the Coach and gave it to him.
"No way! You got a hold of it!" He said in surprise. "Here's the Star!" He said, giving it to the couple.
"Yeah!" Ruby cheered, kissing Pit on the cheek as they held the Star in their hands.
"By the way… are you even my students?" He asked as both of them paled before they quickly flew off in a hurry, dropping the Golden Shell. "…I'll take that as a no."
Beach Bowl Galaxy Star 3 - The Secret Undersea Cavern - Rosalina
Hmm… there's something about this wall that looks a bit off… Rosalina thought as she swam over and gave it a tap with her knuckles, as she could hear something hollow. She tried the rock wall above her and heard a more deeper sound. With a nod, she swam back down as she spotted a Green Shell on the ocean floor. She swam over to it and picked it up, then returned toward the rock wall and threw it, destroying it in one hit. She smiled and swam into the cavern, unaware of Ruby and Pit seeing the mess that she made.
She then surfaced once she got inside the cave. She curiously walked inside in awe as she saw a few Bats flying toward her, but she used her telekinesis to throw them to a wall. She walked further as she soon came across a Launch Star. She would get inside and launched out, heading straight for the Stone Cyclone. "Wait a minute… wasn't this its own galaxy? Why is Stone Cyclone a part of Beach Bowl?" She wondered before letting out a shrug as she walked along the planet, stopping the Tox Boxes in their place as she worked her way around as she then hopped along the stones in the middle of the planet before hopping to the next area.
A Tox Box slowly meandered to her as Rosalina simply power walked to the pathway while the Tox Box still meandered around. Rosalina would then stop the Tox Boxes in front of her as she walked along some Shrinking Tiles as she kept walking, hitting a ? Block along the way to collect Star Bits. She then approached a Thwomp and stopped him in his place as he looked surprised and tried to struggle his way down as Rosalina walked underneath and let go of him. She then looked at a crystallized Power Star as she snapped her fingers as a meteor came crashing down and struck the crystal to shatter it. She walked over and picked up the Power Star.
"Too easy." She said with a chuckle, but then something caught her attention as she looked up to see a yellow comet approach the Galaxy. "…Oh boy." She said as she shielded her eyes from the bright light.
Beach Bowl Galaxy Star 6 - The Cataquack's Return - Yang, Mario, Byleth, Dorothea
"Hello treasure chest!" Yang said as they spotted it.
"Hmm, we would need a key to open this." Byleth said. "But where do we find one?"
"I'm sure we'll find it if we look hard enough." Dorothea said.
"No need! I have a better idea!" Mario said, then he dove in the water and came back out with a Koopa Shell.
"A shell? What good will that do?" Dorothea asked. "I mean, in all honesty, a key would-" Mario would throw the Koopa Shell at the treasure chest, breaking it open and a Launch Star appeared in front of them. "-Work… WHAT. How does that even…?!"
"Hon, I think it'd be best if we don't question it." Byleth said.
"…Byleth, I can see the confused look in your eyes too." Dorothea said.
Byleth blushed a bit. "Was it that obvious?" She wondered as the four of them launched off to the Twin Fall Lake Planet.

BGM: Blue Sky Athletic (Super Mario Galaxy)
"Oh wow! It's pretty!" Yang grinned as they walked around where they would spot an Ice Flower, but they also saw a Cataquack resting.
"Aww, it's so cute!" Dorothea gushed as Yang saw the Cataquack and her eyes widened, flashing back to what happened to her in the Watermelon Festival.
"…They're anything but cute." Yang muttered under her breath, glaring at the Cataquack as Mario walked over and grabbed the Ice Flower, where he found himself completely covered in ice despite his hat and shirt changing ice blue and his overalls turning red.
"Huh, this is new." He said as he ice skated toward the waterfalls with the trio following him as he wall jumped up the waterfall. Byleth pulled out her sword and flicked her wrist, grabbing a hold of the top .
"Grab on, babe!" Byleth said as Dorothea wrapped her arms around her as Byleth pulled herself up.
"Wahoo!" Dorothea exclaimed.
"Great, so what about me?" Yang wondered as the Cataquack woke up and wandered around, then spotted Yang as it started charging at her and swung her up in the air. "WHOOOOOOOOOOOA!" She yelled as she landed perfectly on the platform. She glared at the Cataquack below her and growled. "You're lucky I'm up higher!" She yelled at it as she found herself a Sling Star from a burnt up Spiny Piranha Plant that Dorothea burnt up as she launched herself to the final planet that the others were on.
"Nice of you to join us." Byleth said as Mario ice skated to the Power Star while Yang glanced over at a Cataquack resting on a snowy platform. Byleth would throw the Sword of the Creator at the Power Star to bring it to the others. "Got it!"
"Good. We didn't need that asshole." Yang said.
"What's with you and those cute little things?" Dorothea asked as they flew off.
"Oh, you don't want to know what I've been through with those devils!"
"Mama mia…" Mario muttered quietly.

Beach Bowl Galaxy Star 4 - Fast Foes on the Cyclone Stone - Rosalina
BGM: Speedy Comet in Orbit (Super Mario Galaxy)
"Mmmph!" Rosalina grunted as she found herself at the start of the Stone Cyclone, noticing the Tox Boxes moving faster. "Just as I thought… a Fast Foe Comet." She said as she swiftly blocked a Tox Box from crushing her as she moved her way through the middle part of the planet while making sure not to slip into the spiraling water that would take her to a black hole. Rosalina got to the other side and patiently waited for the Tox Box to swiftly move past her as she chased after it before taking a right and taking off, stopping the faster Tox Boxes as she stopped them with her wand as she soon made it to the Thwomp. Instead of stopping him, she created a Launch Star and blasted over the Thwomp as she landed near the crystal, where she destroyed it with another Meteor and grabbed the Power Star, as she watched the Comet fade off.
"Wasn't so bad." She said with a chuckle and then flew off.

At Ghostly Galaxy…
BGM: Ghostly Galaxy (Super Mario Galaxy)
"Oooh… of course it's a haunted mansion." Luigi groaned as they landed.
"Aww, cheer up. It could be a lot worse!" Daisy smiled.
"Sweet, a haunted mansion!" Jade's eyes sparkled as she felt her clothes magically appearing on her person, as did the rest of her team.
"Huh?! Oh… I'm guessing Rosalina did this." Nyx guessed.
"Probably." Xena nodded as they walked forward before splitting up.
Ghostly Galaxy Star 1 - The Haunted Mansion - Luigi, Daisy, JNPR, Sonic, Gloria
The group would walk through the path after dealing with some Spoings, then made room for the Chomp to roll on by. Then they would walk inside as they walked inside and were greeted by Boos where Luigi would pull out his Poltergust and suck them up. The Poltergust made a strange noise when the second Boo was sucked up as it spat out a key. "Oh! That explains it." Luigi chuckled as they walked over to the door and unlocked it, then they walked inside… but the room was extremely dark for them.
"Ach, it's bloody dark in here…" Gloria said.
"Don't worry, I got it." Luigi said, pulling out a flashlight as they walked through the dark hallway.
Pause BGM
It was then that they heard something that caught their attention. Luigi shined his flashlight to the source but nothing was there. It was then that they heard something above them as Luigi shined his light on the ceiling but nothing was there. They continued walking through the room… when suddenly something dropped in front of them. Luigi would try to shine his light when it yanked the flashlight off of him and turned it off, tossing it to the side. "No!"
"Uh… guys?" Jaune said as they saw yellow eyes surrounding the group.
"Are these Grimm?" Pyrrha wondered.
"They probably are!" Nora said, readying her hammer as everyone got ready to fight.
BGM: Let The Battles Begin! (Final Fantasy VII Remake)
The yellow eyes lunged at Jaune but he blocked the attack and swung his blade to slash through it, knocking it to a wall as Daisy ran over and delivered some swift punches on the yellow creature. They heard some growling from behind as Gloria turned around and swiftly kicked another Grimm, as she could feel it chomping down on her ankle. "Gah!" She yelped as she jumped away. She immediately called out Cinderace where she had it use Pyro Ball to destroy it with a fireball.
Luigi's body crackled with electricity as he fired a bolt of lightning at a few yellow eyes, immediately getting rid of them. Luigi would suddenly feel fatigued as he looked down and saw yellow eyes on his overralls. "Get off!" He said, thunder punching it to get rid of it, where he felt his energy return to him. "Better be careful, these Grimm are leeches!"
"That's good to know!" Sonic said, spin dashing into a few as he did a Homing Attack on a flying yellow eyed creature, as Sonic heard a bat screech. "Mmph!" He grunted as he kicked it to a wall. "We got Bat Grimm!"
"There's too many of them!" Ren said, shooting a few as Nora swung her hammer to send them flying to walls. Pyrrha clapped her hands together and launched a burst of fire into the ground, manipulating the flames to where the creatures were burnt up and destroyed. It was then that the lights came back on in the mansion, signaling that all the creatures were defeated.
End BGM
"Grimm that only make their appearance known with their eyes… that's kinda creepy." Daisy said as Luigi picked up his flashlight and put it away.
"As long as we don't see them again, the better." Luigi said as Gloria pulled out a Potion and sprayed her ankle with it, as she let out a hiss before letting out a sigh.
"There we go." Gloria said, putting it back and recalling Cinderace as they walked through the mansion where they came across a room that had small black holes in windows and Star Chips floating around as Sonic would immediately grab as a Launch Star appeared before them that had replaced a Black Hole as they flew off to another mansion planet. They would walk across while having some Pull Stars fly them across a large gap where they walked inside where they would spot a few Boo Mushrooms in front of them.
"Oooh, what's this?" Luigi wondered as he picked up a Boo Mushroom as did Pyrrha, Sonic and Gloria as they popped them in his mouth, where Luigi would turn into a Boo. "…Well, THIS is ironic." He sweatdropped as Sonic would transform into his Werehog form.
"Eh? Huh… never thought I'd see this again." He said as Pyrrha's Boo form would have her ponytail gone as her hair flew freely as she was also wearing a white dress and her skin went pale.
"Oooh… I think I need to be out in the sun more." Pyrrha giggled as Jaune jawdropped at Pyrrha's ghostly form.
"Oh my goodness, you're even prettier…" He said quietly, but it was loud enough for everyone to hear.
"Aww, thank you!" Pyrrha giggled, pecking him on the cheek as he blushed a dark red.
"DUSKULL DUSK?!" A voice yelled as they saw Gloria's hair turned grey, she had a skull mask on her face with a glowing red eye, her arms were ghostly and her legs were completely missing. "Dusk Dusk!"
"Aww, you turned into a cute Duskull!" Daisy giggled as suddenly several Boos surrounded them as a few surrounded Duskull Gloria.
"Dusk… Duuuusk!" Gloria would try to shoo them away but to no avail where the Boos chased her around with flowers over their stubby arms while some Boos circled around Pyrrha with blushes over their faces.
"Heeey back off!" Nora said. "We found her first! Get lost! Shoo! She's OUR lady!"
"Yeah, you heard her! Move!" Jaune said, using his Honedge to threaten them while Sonic rolled his eyes and used his stretchy arms to pull the grate off.
"Over here!" Sonic said as they took off.
"I'm sorry boys, but I'm taken!" Pyrrha said as she floated off, pushing them away by firing Will-O-Wisps at the Boos as Gloria floated off where Sonic would pull off another grate where Luigi floated over and grabbed the Star.
"Got it!" Luigi said as they floated up and flew off back to the Observatory.
Ghostly Galaxy Star 2 - A Very Spooky Sprint - Jade, Nyx, Xena
The trio would land on a round planet after going to the left of the mansion and finding a Launch Star. "I think Iris got lost." Xena said.
"Eh, I'm sure she'll be fine." Jade said as she glanced over at a capsule that got her attention. She immediately walked over to it out of curiosity as she would see a Jade Wisp trapped in a capsule. "Oh, you poor thing!" She said, kneeling down and pressing the button to free it. It would let out some spooky chatter and circle around Jade. "Aww, you're welcome!" She giggled.
"Typical how the Ghost expert frees a ghostly Wisp." Nyx teased as Xena let out a giggle as they walked forward.
"Wait a minute, that ghost is… Jade."
What about it?
"Jade Gadd, Princess Jade of Erdrea… now we got a Jade Wisp. What's next, we have a Queen Jade of the Mushroom Kingdom? No… Empress."
Empress? Oddly specific.
"Has a nicer ring to it!"
You do have a point. Xena chuckled as they would find a large Boo in front of them. The Boo in question had a helmet and goggles over it.
"Hehehehe… I suppose you are after that, yes? Well, how about a race to see who can have it." The Spooky Speedster said.
Pause BGM
"Sure, I'll race you." Jade said as she felt the Jade Wisp go inside of her, a jade aura surrounding her as her eyes turned jade as the two got into position as the Spooky Speedster sped off. "Let's see what you can do!"
"GHOST!"
BGM: A Spooky Sprint (Super Mario Galaxy)
Jade would find herself floating up as she let out a grin and floated off after the two as Nyx and Xena looked at her in surprise and then at each other as Jade kept at a good pace as she saw some floating pieces of meat in front of her as she turned herself intangible as she flew through the pieces of meat without too much trouble. "Oh, now I can go through walls." She chuckled as she floated through the ghostly track as the Spooky Speedster was behind her. She would immediately spot a Sling Star in the track as she flung herself further ahead as she would float her way to victory, then spotted several floating mines at the end.
"Well, that's not insane at all!" She said as she went through the mines easily as she flew her way to the finish with the Speedster behind her.
End BGM
"Hmm, that was a good race, and it seems you have beaten me. Here you are." He said, handing over the Power Star as the Jade Wisp popped out of Jade.
"Oh, that was awesome." Jade chuckled as Nyx and Xena came over to her via Pull Stars as she took the Power Star. "Come on girls, let's go!" She said as they flew off.
"Wonder where Iris went?" Xena wondered.
Resume Ghostly Galaxy BGM
Ghostly Galaxy Star 6 - Matter Splatter Mansion - Iris
After Iris had destroyed a rock spire that she noticed was glowing, she had blasted off to the Matter Splatter Mansion. "Okay… where am I?" She wondered as she walked forward where the floor started moving on her own.This is trippy. She thought as she found a safe area where she would kneel down and try to feel for any floor in the void, but felt nothing. "Nope, non-existent." She confirmed as she walked ahead and followed the path that was appearing before her while it disappeared behind her. She would occasionally shoot at a Boo with Lightning Dust to stun it to get it off her back. She would then start climbing at the final area where it started rising from below where four doors appeared before her as a Power Star showed up in one of them, where Iris would immediately grab a hold of it.
"Sheesh… get me out of this place!" She said as she flew off.
Ghostly Galaxy Star 3 - Beware of Bouldergeist - Blake, Weiss, Hiyoko, Ibuki, Tucker, Sarge, Knuckles
Blake's team went toward the right as they would enter a new area of the mansion, where they were immediately greeted by a few Bomb Boos and a capsule that contained a Violet Wisp. "Hmm?" Blake would walk over to it and curiously walked toward it with the others.
"Huh, looks kind of… ugly." Sarge said as the Violet Wisp snapped at them like a dog, surprising most of them but Blake.
"Shhh, it's okay, I won't hurt you." Blake said, clicking on the button to free it as she put her hand out. The Violet Wisp snarled at her but realized Blake wasn't afraid of it. It slowly moved toward Blake and sniffed her hand before slowly circling around her as it gently nestled above her head.
"Uh… did you just… not be afraid of it? It snapped at you like a dog!" Weiss said.
"I know, but… I know it's not truly a dog." She said as she looked at the Violet Wisp. "What happened to this… it feels so… negative."
"I think it has something to do with its… energy? I dunno, you're gonna have to ask Tails." Knuckles said.
Blake nodded and stood up, noticing the Bomb Boos spotting them and rushed at them with demented laughs, but the Violet Wisp hissed at it before going inside Blake, where a violet aura surrounded her as her eyes turned violet.
"VOID!"
Blake would let out a soft groan as she lifted up as everything around her was sucked up inside of her as even the Bomb Boos were surprised by this as she clapped her hands, unleashing a powerful shockwave that destroyed everything around her, including everything that went inside of her as Bomb Boos blew up on the walls, one of them hitting a Bowser Statue to destroy it. The Violet Wisp came out of Blake with an innocent smile.
"…Oh dang." Weiss could only say.
"Oh, yeah, I'm keeping you." Blake said as she turned around and saw stunned looks on their faces.
"Wow! That was totally cool!" Ibuki exclaimed, her eyes sparkling.
"Daaaaamn, don't mess with this kitty!" Tucker said as Blake let out an embarrassed chuckle as they walked into a Launch Star and launched away to the Phantom Tower Planet, where they would find some Sling Pods and Blue Star Chips.
"Oh, these again." Weiss said as they launched themselves to collect the Star Chips where the Pull Stars appeared and they pulled the group toward a Launch Star where they flew toward the final planet.
End BGM
"You guys feel that?" Hiyoko asked.
"Yup, we sure do." Tucker responded as they walked down the steps and onto the arena.
BGM: Bouldergeist (Super Mario Galaxy)
Rocks started forming up around the group as they formed a spooky rock monster in front of them. Bouldergeist let out a loud roar.
Rocky Horror Show - Bouldergeist
"Here we go!" Blake said as Bouldergeist summoned boulders as they shot out at the group where they rolled out of the way as Ibuki strummed her guitar and fired lightning bolts at one boulder that was thrown at them, where a Rock Mushroom would pop out of it and landed in front of it.
"Oh? Oh?" Ibuki wondered as she ran over and picked it up, then rushed back. "Hiyoko-chan, use this!" She said, throwing it at Hiyoko as she grabbed it, then she front flipped up in the air and ate it, glowing brightly. Her hairdo changed to a braid while she was wearing a gray and pink dress reaching down just above her knees, with sleeves reaching three-fourths of the way down her arms. She had thigh-high geode patterned socks, and even her tessans changed, sporting large teardrop shaped jewels colored in a pattern of pink, orange, and light blue. Completing the look was her obi sash tied around her waist with pink, orange, and light blue rock candy sticks attached to it.
"Oh, now I feel ready to rock!" Hiyoko said as she dodged the boulders thrown at her as Blake used the Void Wisp to send a Bomb Boo toward Bouldergeist. Hiyoko would rush at Bouldergeist with Knuckles as Knuckles would throw a punch at him to knock some rocks off as Hiyoko's fist turned into a rock and Rock Punched Bouldergeist hard enough to shatter him, resulting in a simple poltergeist with a comically large uvula.
"That is just… wow!" Weiss said as she and Tucker ran ahead as both of them slashed at the uvula as Bouldergeist let out a pained scream before forming more rocks to repair himself… and this time, he grew hands.
"Well, as Akame-chan would say… it's gonna throw hands!" Ibuki said as Hiyoko let out a snicker as the latter formed a boulder in her hands as she tossed it up like a baseball and swung her tessan to swing it hard at Bouldergeist, but it blocked with his hands, letting out a demented chuckle.
"Oh, don't you laugh at me!" Hiyoko glared as rocks were thrown at them while Bouldergeist threw a punch at Sarge, but he rolled out of the way and shot at the hand. Bouldergeist would launch more boulders, but Blake would suck them all up with Void and then shoot them back out. Bouldergeist would fire rock spires from the ground as Weiss would counter it with icy spikes of her own, colliding into each other and cancelling each other out as Knuckles would unleash an uppercut after digging through the ground, dealing damage to the poltergeist.
Bouldergeist would throw another punch as Hiyoko formed her hand into a rock as she delivered a powerful Rock Punch to counter it, both of them colliding hard enough for the rock hand to shatter as Bouldergeist had a surprised look on his face where he was then pelted by lightning bolts by Ibuki before she grabbed a hold of a Bomb Boo's tongue as she rushed at him before throwing the Bomb Boo into Bouldergeist, shattering him as his Uvula was exposed.
"This ghost… has been SARGED!" Sarge said, shooting the uvula as it let out a pained cry before exploding into nothing.

"Woo! Did not mess up my one liner this time!" Sarge cheered as they walked over to the Power Star and grabbed it, and then they flew off… but Blake, Weiss and Hiyoko would find themselves unable to fly back.
"Huh? Why aren't we going back?" Hiyoko wondered as Ibuki would turn her head as she quickly pulled out her Hover Board and flew back to the others.
"You okay?" Ibuki asked.
"Yeah… but we can't fly back for some reason." Weiss said.
"I wonder why?" Hiyoko wondered as Blake would look up and saw a White Comet flying through the air.
"Isn't that…?" Blake wondered as Ibuki let out a gasp and pointed to the middle of the arena.
"Pointing!" She yelled as the three turned around to see Bouldergeist reforming, complete with its hands.
BGM: The Corrupted (Kingdom Hearts III)
"Back for more?" Weiss asked as she and Blake would let out a groan as their aura fizzled out. "Wh-what…?"
"No… this is that Daredevil Comet!" Blake winced.
"Then… then we gotta give it our all!" Weiss said, calling upon her Blue Wisp to help out.
"Let's do this!" Hiyoko said as they got ready to fight where they would notice Bouldergeist wouldn't summon boulders as it started punching at them where they avoided the punches as Hiyoko would clap her hands together and formed herself into a boulder as she rolled straight for Bouldergeist and slammed into him. Bouldergeist would let out a pained groan as Hiyoko backed away as Bouldergeist would slam his hands to the ground to try and hurt them, but they rolled out of the way as Blake would use the Void to pull off some of the rocks from the hands as she shot it out to his face.
Bouldergeist would attempt to throw an uppercut on Weiss but she rolled out of the way as she nodded at the Blue Wisp and went inside of Weiss.
"CUBE!"
Weiss stabbed the ground as cubes rose up from the ground to block the punches as Hiyoko rushed ahead and Rock Punched Bouldergeist hard enough to shatter him as he started moving around while screaming, then Ibuki rushed ahead and swung her battle axe and struck the uvula. Bouldergeist would scream and repair himself as he delivered faster punches as they would quickly try to dodge the attack, but Bouldergeist would grab Weiss and slammed her into the ground. "AGH!" She screamed as she tried to get up, but Bouldergeist would throw a rock at her as she would try to get away, but it slammed into her sprained ankle. "GAAAAAAAAH!"
"Weiss!" Blake exclaimed as Bouldergeist grabbed her as well, and then picked up Weiss again. "Nnngh!"
"Weiss! Blake!" Hiyoko exclaimed as Bouldergeist would hold them like shields. "Rrrrgh… coward!"
"Don't worry you two, we'll get you out of there!" Ibuki said where they would heard a small roar as Ibuki would turn to see Azure flying over and breathing fire at Bouldergeist's face. Bouldergeist would let out a yelp and dropped Blake and Weiss as Ibuki and Hiyoko went to catch them as they pulled them away.
"Stay there, we'll knock out this rock!" Hiyoko said as she and Ibuki rushed at Bouldergeist as Weiss weakly got up, lifting her bad foot to lessen the pain.
"…Wait a minute… I have an idea…" Weiss said.
"Well, let's hear it!" Blake said as Weiss pulled out her Pokeball and called out her Popplio. "Mara?"
"Gonna try something." Weiss said as she activated the Z-Crystal in her wrist. "Alright… here goes nothing." I hope this works, Umber! She thought as she closed her eyes, moving her arms in a hula dance like motion as Mara glowed a yellow aura.
"Poppliiiii!" Mara cried.
"Hydro Vortex!" Weiss yelled as Mara sprayed water directly at Bouldergeist, where it would then surround the arena with water and making a dome of water.
"What the?!" Hiyoko wondered as Mara rushed into Bouldergeist head on in an Aqua Jet like fashion and slammed into Bouldergeist hard enough to shatter him. "Weiss, I don't know what you did, but thanks!" Hiyoko said as she rushed at the surprised Bouldergeist as she Rock Punched him in the uvula to finish him off, as a Power Star appeared before them.

"That was amazing, Weiss-chan!" Ibuki praised, her eyes sparkling as Azure flew over to Weiss and nuzzled against her.
"Thanks, sweetie!" Weiss smiled, hugging the Rathalos as they took the Power Star and then flew off back to the Observatory.
At Buoy Base…
BGM: Buoy Base Galaxy (Super Mario Galaxy)
The rest of the group landed on a platform, staring at the massive tower before her. "Wow! Impressive!" Penny said in awe.
"That's pretty cool." Tai chuckled.
"Let's go see what this place contains." Qrow said as they dove into the water.
Buoy Base Galaxy Star 1 - The Floating Fortress - Tai, Qrow, Zwei, Penny, Reds, Blues, Travis, Tails
The group would swim down to see what they could do, and then spotted a weight surrounded by a cage. Travis would pull out his Beam Katana and swing it to shatter it, then it would pull up some floatation devices for them to get on the base while it also rose up. They would swim back to the surface and would start climbing, but would notice a capsule as they climbed up. The Wisp in question was gray and iron as Tai would kneel down and gently pressed it to free the little guy. The Gray Wisp would chirp and flew around Tai. "Heh, you're welcome." He said as they continued climbing while also avoiding Thwomps.
As they climbed higher, they would notice blue star chips on the planet where Penny and Tails would fly over and collect the Star Chips where Pull Stars appeared and pulled them up to the round planet before them. Penny would fly around and see a familiar shape. "Oh… is this a Pokeball Planet?" She wondered as they walked while also avoiding the electric shockwaves that came forward.
"Where are these coming from?!" Grif asked.
"Those things!" Caboose said, pointing to the Ball Beamers.
"Oh lovely!" Church said as they got to the top where Tai had an idea and looked at the Gray Wisp where it nodded and went inside of him, where he had a gray aura surrounding him along with gray eyes. He let out a loud cry as he jumped up in the air.
"QUAKE!"
Tai's fist turned metal as he punched the Ball Beamer on the head, completely shattering it as it opened up the planet.
"Holy shit!" The Reds, Church and Travis yelled while Qrow looked surprised as they saw a Power Star inside the planet. Zwei let out an excited howl as Tai swam down and grabbed a hold of the Power Star, then they flew off.
Buoy Base Galaxy Star 2 - The Secret of Buoy Base - Ilia, Mercedes, Carolina, Amy, Cream & Cheese
While the others lifted up the base, the others found a cage containing a Warp Pipe. Amy would get an idea and swim over to a Bill Blaster as a Torpedo Ted popped out and launched over to Amy where she guided it to the cage and blew it up. The others went into the Warp Pipe as they went inside and found themselves outside of Buoy Base. They curiously walked over and found themselves greeted by Bullet Bills, but Carolina and Mercedes shot them down where they worked their way to a cage where they spotted a Green Star.
"A Green Power Star?" Ilia wondered as Mercedes shrugged. Amy would take a step back and swing her hammer, knocking it off and into the water below as Ilia grabbed the Power Star.
"Yay! Another one!" Mercedes smiled as they flew off back to the Observatory.
So, apparently, Game Freak is gonna host an announcement at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, of all places. Everyone's guessing Diamond and Pearl remakes and here I am going "Watch, they're gonna announce the release date of Pokemon Unite."
Also, i've been meaning to say something about... eh... a game that was announced at one of the PS5 showcases. You'll find further details of it in my Quotev page, which you'll find a link on my page. I've been meaning to get around to it anyway.
