BGM: Outer Space (Super Paper Mario)
World 4-3 - Space Byway
"So this is the Space Bypass or whatever?" Yang asked.
"Yes, indeed!" Squirps responded. "We are in the Space Bypass!"
"…How can this guy even tell? It feels the same to me." Marnie said.
"Agreed…" Roman nodded.
"Ah ah ah! This space is different. Squirps can feel it!"
Peach sweatdropped. "Oookaaaay then…"
"Let's just go before we all start goin' crazy over bein' in space for too long…" Gloria said as they started to float around in space, taking out a few Jelliens while also dodging a few Hedrons that were rotating around that forced them all to go around them.
"I swear, it's like we went around in a giant circle, only for there to be more obstacles!" Bowser said.
"Nah, I think we're going the right way… I think." Ruby scratched her head.
"This part of space is different." Deoxys said quietly.
"Of course, the only one who dwells in space knows this part of space is different…" Bede rolled his eyes as they soon came across a giant red X.
"Uh… anyone got a shovel?" Yang asked.
"Allow me!" Fleep said and then floated over, flipping himself on the X as two space pillars appeared before them, with a Squirps shaped hole in one of them.
"Ooooh! Put Squirps in that hole! Squeeze Squirps in there~!" Squirps happily said as Peach did so. "Aaaah, nice and comfy~!"
"Great, so how is he gonna get-" Suddenly a gate appeared in front of them, interrupting Bowser. "-Out… huh, that's new."
Squirps popped himself out of the hole. "This right here… is the Space Gate! It will take us to the Whoa Zone!"
"The what now?" Weiss said, trying to make sure she heard him right.
"The Whoa Zo-… okay! Who are you? I still demand answers!" Tippi demanded.
"All will be revealed quickly. Now let's go!" Squirps said.
"Mmm… stop avoiding my question!" She yelled, but was ignored as they continued on where they saw another X that Fleep got rid of as another Space Gate appeared before them with two Squirps shaped holes, but no one noticed the second one.
"Squish Squirps in there~!"
"Squish?" Peach sweatdropped at Squirps's wording as she did so.
"Ah, nice and-… wait, why isn't the gate opening?"
"Uh, guys? There's a second hold on this other pillar." Blake said.
"You're kidding!" General Guy exclaimed. "Does anyone know any duplication spells?"
"I've yet to teach myself that one." Kamek admitted.
"I wonder… can Mew turn into a Ditto and then can transform into Squirps?" Ruby wondered.
"That's not how it works." Mew responded, to which Gloria translated.
"Aww…"
"Maybe we can get General Esdeath?" Weiss suggested.
"Nah, I think she's too busy." Bowser said.
"Ooooh, I'm so hungry…" Squirps groaned. "I can't move… I need something to eat…"
"I'll be right back!" Hoopa said, opening up a ring portal and flying in, then came back out. "Alright, I got some stuff for ya. I got pizza, I got spaghetti, lasagna, cookies, ravioli… pick your poison!"
"Poison? Are you trying to poison Squirps?"
"…No, see, it's a figure of spee-" Hoopa groaned. "No, I'm not trying to poison you."
"Then why did space grunt say "Pick your poison"?"
"Oh, never mind!" Hoopa sighed as he gave him the stuff. "Here, try this!"
"Mmm! Hmmm… interesting… but it's not exactly savory! Not to mention this stuff is kinda… overrated."
"Overrated?!" Mario said in shock. "Why I oughta…"
"Also, these cookies aren't savory enough."
"WHAT?!" Ruby yelled.
"Ha! Now this is amusing!" Bowser smirked as Peach attempted to hold Mario back.
"Easy… easy!" She said as WBY had to hold Ruby back.
"I thought for sure he'd like that…" Hoopa sweatdropped.
"I could whip up some curry…" Gloria said.
"In space? Good luck." Bede said.
"Okay so… uh… haggis?" Gloria suggested.
"I don't think he'd like it." Marnie said.
Gloria sweatdropped. "Uh… Wooloo's Stom-"
"Not in front of Dubwool, mate!" Hop said quickly.
"…Lamb chops?"
"Still no! Not in front of Dubwool!"
"Then what will he eat then!" Gloria exclaimed in exasperation.
"I do have some berries… but I usually save them for Morpeko." Marnie said.
"Ice cream?" Neo signed while Steve brought out a piece of meat.
"…Savory… savory… aha!" Hoopa went into the portal. "Sorry big guy!"
"What the… hey!"
"Just take Little Mac's bar. He doesn't need it!"
"…Good point. Hey Mac, come here a sec!"
Hoopa came out with a chocolate bar. "Phew, that took some convincing." He said and handed over a chocolate bar.
"Mmm, this looks tasty…" Squirps said, taking a bite. "Oh! Oooooh! Oh my heavens, this is DELICIOUS!" He yelled as he suddenly split in two as the other Squirps went into the hole to activate the Space Gate, then the two Squirps merged into one. "Mmm! That was tasty!"
"…What just happened?" Ruby asked.
"I… I don't even know." Weiss responded as they went inside the gate, then they discovered a portal in front of them.
"There it is! The entrance to the Whoa Zone!" Squirps said as they went inside.

World 4-4: Whooooooooa…
BGM: The Whoa Zone (Super Paper Mario)
"Here we are! The Whoa Zone!"
"…Uh… it's all… technical… I think?" Marnie tilted her head. "I'm not sure how to describe it."
"I'm coming~!" Squirps said as he took off. "By the way, the place is a bit complex!"
"Hey, wait a minute! Don't leave us behind!" Yang exclaimed. "Aaaaand… he's gone."
"Come on, let's go find that little runt." Bowser said as they started to walk ahead where they would be greeted by several Tileoid creatures that Bowser completely fried as they made their way through the Zone, finding themselves a door after coming across a Barribad that Tippi had scanned for them.
"That right there is a Barribad. It can shoot rings of energy from its mouth while also producing a barrier. You can't exactly break the barrier but you can find a way to get around it."
"Barribad, huh?" Yang mused, rubbing her chin in thought with a smirk.
"…Oh no." Ruby whispered.
"Well, if we can't break the barrier, then I supposed that would be… Barribad."
"Uuuugh, that was horrible…" Gloria groaned as the Barribad gave Yang an annoyed "really?" look.
"Tough crowd… but hey, I've a feeling one of these days, I'm gonna make you laugh." Yang said.
"Make me laugh with those puns? Yeah, love to see you try, lass. It ain't gonna happen." Gloria said as Mario flipped dimensions and then came behind the Barribad and hammered it to take it out. They would then make their way toward a locked door.
"Uh guys…? Why are there doors on the ceiling?" Weiss asked.
"Probably for decoration." Hop responded as Yang ripped off the lock as they walked inside, and then found themselves walking out of one of the doors on the ceiling. "Wah! Or not!"
"Well, this isn't confusing at all." General Guy mused as they walked their way until they reached a dead end, but Mario would flip to 3D and found another door that was hidden, and when he brought everyone with him, they went inside the door where they would find themselves back on the ground in a new room, where there was a Pigarithm wandering around.
"Now we're back on the ground?" Hop wondered.
"What the heck kind of place is this?!" Ruby wondered as they would come across a gravity block as Weiss would hit it out of curiosity… and then she started falling to a wall.
"WHOOOOOOOOOOOA!" Weiss yelled as she landed on her back. "Gah! Ow…" She groaned as Blake landed next to her on her feet.
"You alright?" Blake asked.
"Ugh… I think I figured out why this is called the Whoa Zone…" Weiss groaned as they heard screaming as Bowser was falling toward them. "Wah!" Weiss jumped back as Bowser landed on his face.
"Urrrgh… I hate this place…" Bowser groaned as one by one, everyone started falling though Peach and Neo had used their umbrellas to gently float to the wall, though Neo had Marnie hold on to her on their way down.
"Mama mia…" Mario rubbed his head.
"You said it." Yang mumbled.
"Ugh… this place sucks…" Ruby groaned as they walked their way up and found another Gravity block. "Oh, please tell me this one doesn't take us to the other wall."
"Someone else do it, I'd rather not shatter my spine!" Weiss said.
"Oh… alright, here goes nothing." Kamek said, using his wand to hit it as he flipped upside down and landed on the ceiling. "Nope! This just hits the ceiling.
"That's better." Bowser chuckled as they did the same as the Koopa King ripped the lock off and threw it behind him as they walked inside where they would find another gravity switch that would take them down to the floor and destroying the other lock on the door, then they walked inside where they found Squirps.
End BGM
"Ah! Finally, you guys made it!"
"Wait, how did you get through the locks?" Mario asked.
"It's a secret~!"
"…I call BS." Bowser said as everyone nodded in agreement.
"Well now… now that everyone is here, the Pure Heart is on the other side!" Squirps smiled.
"Ah yes, very good Squirps. You're a good kid!"
"Huh?" Peach wondered.
Marnie turned around. "Was that…?"
"Aw, stop it… you're making Squirps blush!" Squirps giggled. "…Wait a minute, who said that?" He wondered when suddenly, someone landed right on top of him. "SQUEEOUUUCH!" He yelped as the mysterious figure landed on the ground.
"Heheheh…"
BGM: Mr. L, Green Thunder! (Super Paper Mario)
"Wh-who are you?!" Tippi asked in shock.
"Oh me? I'm just one of Count Bleck's more promising minions… the Green Thunder…" He then spun around and did a pose. "Mr. L!"
"…Is that what he's calling himself now?" Bowser folded his arms. "Veeeery funny, Green 'Stache."
"Green 'Stache? I have no idea what you're talking about, Mister I Get Myself Beat Up By the Man in Red and Girly Teenagers." Mr. L let out a chuckle.
"Hey!"
"That's the best insult you could come up with? That's a mouthful, even for you!" Roman said.
"I disagree, Mr. Burnt Candle Stick."
"Candle stick…?" Roman wondered.
"In fact, I have names for each of you." He then pointed to Mario. "Sir Jumps A Lot."
"Eh?"
Then to Peach. "Ms. Pink n Frilly!"
Peach blinked. "Uh… okay?"
Then to RWBY, but pointed at Weiss. "Miss Queen of Ice-" Then to Blake. "Miss Smut Reader-" and to Yang. "Miss Big Blonde Bimbo."
"I'm used to it."
"Um…" Blake blushed a deep red.
"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!" Yang yelled, steam coming out of her ears.
"…Hey, wait a minute, you didn't say anything to me-"
Mr. L then pointed to the Galar team, completely ignoring Ruby. "Miss Angry Scot, Mr. Prissy Pink, Mr. Low Self-Esteem and Miss Can't Seem To Smile!"
Gloria raised an eyebrow. "I'm not angry all the time…"
"P-P-Prissy?!" Bede said in shock, taken aback by what he said. "Rrrgh… cursed old lady…"
"I… I mean…" Hop rubbed her shoulder. "I'm… getting better…"
"Excuse me! I can smile you know! …I just tend to smile around Neo and Luigi more often…" Which I know it's you in there. She thought.
"Unless you're faking it, goth girl."
"IT'S PUNK!"
Neo patted her shoulder. "I know it's genuine." She signed.
"Hey, what about-"
Mr. L continued to ignore Ruby and pointed to the rest of the Koopa Troop. "Miss Sad Little Mute, Mr. Knockoff Stage Magician, Mr. Ineffective General."
Neo simply just raised an eyebrow.
"Knockoff?!" Kamek said in shock.
"INEFFECTIVE?! WHY YOU UNGRATEFUL LITTLE-!"
"Heeeeey!" Ruby tried to get his attention, but failed as Mr. L pointed to Steve and the Pokemon.
"Mr. Creeper Magnet, Mr. Genie wannabe, Mr. Ugly Shadow…" He looked toward the other Mythicals. "Team Tends To Get Captured by 10 Year Olds."
Steve let out a simple shrug.
"Genie wannabe? Come on, man… you could do better than that."
"No skin off my back."
"…I mean, he's not wrong." Meloetta said.
"Mmm… wish I could think of a good comeback." Manaphy mumbled. "Unfortunately, all he'd hear is "Mana Mana"…"
"I am not insulted, but amused." Deoxys said.
"HEEEEEEEEEY!" Ruby flailed her arms. "You've been insulting everyone, but you keep ignoring me! So come on, give me your best shot! I can take it!"
"Ah yes, the one that I have been saving for last… frankly, I got nothing on you… Little Miss Has No Mommy."
"Mmph!" Ruby stiffened, as she could feel the tears start to form in her eyes. "I… I um…"
"Ouch… harsh…" Roman said. "Not even I would go that far."
"Rrrgh! Low blow!" Bowser growled.
Yang's eyes started to turn red. "Alright, now you've gone and made her cry…" Yang cracked her knuckles. "IF I HAVE TO KNOCK YOU OUT TO BRING YOU BACK, THEN SO HELP ME-"
"Bring me back? Don't make me laugh… after all, you were the one attempting to bring your mother back… so where is she?" He asked as Yang gasped. "I would've called you "Little Miss Abandonment Issues Because Your Mother Abandoned You", but that was a mouthful… so I went with the next best thing."
"Oh, and the insult for me wasn't?" Bowser snarked.
"Luigi… I know you're in there." Mario said. "You wouldn't have the heart to actually insult anyone. If anything, you're brainwashed!"
"I have no recollection of this Luigi. I don't even know who he is." Mr. L let out a chuckle. "Now, this would be the part where I say "Have at you", but… I ain't stupid. For I have back up! Introduce yourselves!" He instructed as suddenly, four phantom figures landed on the ground. They all had masks and scarves similar to Mr L, while their colors were also inverted.
"I'm the wild storm… PHANTOM GREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN! YEAH!" He yelled in a rock and roll voice.
"I'm the passionate yellow… Phantom Yellow's the name, cuties." He said in a suave voice.
"Call me the red hot rage! Phantom Red will burn you ALL down!" She yelled with fury in her voice.
The pink one bowed. "A pleasure to make your acquaintance, for I am the radiant pink lightning." She said calmly. "Phantom Pink is my name."
"And together… we are the illustrious Phantom Four!" They declared while doing poses.
"…Oh, this is just lovely." Weiss groaned.
"Did they… did they really just…?" Mario wondered.
"Yup… they did it." Peach nodded.
"Ugh… now I'm reminded of those Axem Losers again!" Bowser grumbled.
"We still outnumber them!" Gloria said.
"I see this as an even fight." Mr. L said. "But, if you still think you can beat us… come forth, metal bro!" He exclaimed as suddenly a robot landed on the ground as he backflipped into it. "You like this? I call him Brobot!" He said. "Now then, as you gaze into the awe inspiring robot… we will now proceed to kick your butts!" He said. "Let's get this party STARTED!"

BGM: Let The Battles Begin! (Final Fantasy VII Remake)
Green Thunder - Mr. L
The Thunderstorm Four - The Phantom Four
Metal Bro - Brobot
Everyone jumped away to take care of the other as Mario, Peach, Bowser, Marnie, Neo, Roman, General Guy, Kamek, Hoopa, Marshadow, the Mythical Pokemon and Deoxys faced Mr L and Brobot. Brobot started firing missiles at them, but General Guy would fire Bullet Bills back at them, colliding with the missiles where they created explosions as Mario jumped into the air and hammered Brobot head on and knocked the massive Brobot back, but Brobot would suck him in and then spit him back out, but Kamek would cast a spell on Mario to bring him back.
Bowser jumped into the air and ground pounded Brobot, but Mr. L moved him back. However, Hoopa made a Ring Portal for Bowser to dive bomb into as another portal was above Brobot as Bowser slammed on top of it to dent it, then he tore open the top and dove in. "Hey! What are you doing?!" He asked as Bowser threw Mr. L out of Brobot and hopped out. "Heh… well, at least I can do this." Mr. L said, pressing a button as Brobot started to go into auto-pilot mode and proceeded to fire missiles, but Mew and her team proceeded to fight Brobot along with Deoxys.
"Sorry about this, Luigi…" Peach said, readying her umbrella.
Phantom Yellow - Hop, Ruby, Steve
Phantom Yellow rushed over at the trio and slashed at them, but Steve would block with his Diamond Sword and counter attacked while Ruby delivered some swift attacks, though she was lacking a bit in focus after what Mr. L had said to her. "You lack focus, sweetheart. Something the matter?" He asked.
"D-don't worry about it!" Ruby responded, quickly slashing at him but he gracefully dodged the blows as Hop had his Dubwool charge at him with a Double Edge, but Phantom Yellow gracefully avoided the attack and rushed at Hop, delivering a swift attack on him but he ducked and then delivered a punch to his gut that made him back up a little as Ruby quickly delivered swift blows with her scythe, but Phantom Yellow quickly blocked the attacks and swiftly parried the scythe to disarm Ruby.
"Looks like you've been disarmed. Hmhmhmhm~" Phantom Yellow chuckled, but then was pushed away by Ruby's Rose Palm as she picked up her scythe once again as Steve came rushing in and then delivered powerful swings with his diamond sword.
Phantom Pink - Weiss, Bede
"I never thought she'd be so calm…" Weiss said as Phantom Pink calmly approached them and then swung her hammer, but Weiss and Bede avoided the attack as Weiss ran over and stabbed her a few times with her rapier, knocking her back as Bede had his Mawile use Crunch on her, but Phantom Pink jumped back as her eyes started glowing and then fired lightning bolts at them, but the duo avoided the attack as Weiss stabbed the ground and formed small ice stalactites to pierce her.
"Oh, would you look at that… you impaled me." She said, shaking it off as she ran over and then swung her hammer in a more calm manner, but they were able to dodge it as Mawile lunged over and used Iron Head to knock her back as Weiss switched to Eiskönigin and unleashed a heavy swing that sent Phantom Pink sliding.
"Come on, Nora! You're tougher than this!" Weiss said.
"Who's Nora?" Phantom Pink responded as she jumped up in the air and slammed her hammer on the ground to produce an electric shockwave to knock the three back.
Phantom Red - Yang, Gloria
Gloria immediately went into her Unovan Darmantian form as she rushed over and Fire Punched Phantom Red, but she would block with her shield as she would respond by a fire punch of her own, both of them connecting as Yang ran over and delivered a few jabs and an uppercut, but she swiftly dodged the attacks. "HRAAAAAAAH!" She yelled, unleashing a stream of fire but the duo dodged as Yang threw a Hadoken at her while Gloria jumped up in the air and swung her arms down for Hammer Arm, and while Phantom Red dodged the attacks, the shockwave was enough for her to stumble, which was enough for Yang to activate her ARMs and then grabbed a hold of her as she threw her down while Gloria did another Hammer Arm to knock the wind out of her.
"Rrrgh!" Phantom Red recovered. "You will REGRET that!" She screamed.
Oooh, and I thought Gloria and I had anger issues… Yang thought as Phantom Red would deliver swift and fiery swings from her blade, but the duo would swiftly dodge as Yang would deliver a shoryuken to knock her up in the air as Gloria jumped up and unleashed Superpower to punch her in the gut to send her flying toward the ground.
Phantom Green - Blake
Sure, leave me by myself with a hyped up version of Ren… Blake thought, dodging his attacks.
"Rock and ROLL!" Phantom Green yelled, delivering wild kicks that Blake was able to predict and then counter attacked as Phantom Green pulled out a bow and fired arrows but she swiftly used her semblance as she brought out her Shadow Whip and flicked it forward, wrapping it around him and pulled him in as she delivered a punch to knock him back and then she brought out her claws as she slashed him repeatedly but he was able to dodge these. "You do not not know the true meaning of rock and roll!" He said, kneeing her in the gut.
"Mmmph!" Blake winced, and then countered with a slash attack to send him back as Blake charged ahead.
Mr. L…
Brobot fired missiles, but the Mythicals were able to destroy the missiles while Deoxys was done charging up and then fired a Hyper Beam attack that struck it, causing it to short circuit, where it would then be hit by Manaphy's Whirlpool, Meloetta throwing Brobot's own missile with Psychic, Diancie using Diamond Storm, Marshadow using Close Combat, Hoopa using Hyperspace Hole and Mew transforming into Kartana and used Sacred Sword.
Mr. L quickly blocked attacks from Neo and Marnie. "Heh, isn't this cute…" Mr. L smirked.
"Come on, I know you're in there somewhere!" Marnie said as she quickly sweep kicked him as Neo swung her umbrella to knock him away as Peach got into position behind him and used a Peach Bomber to send him flying to Bowser as he delivered an uppercut where Mario jumped up into the air and pulled his hammer back.
"Sorry bro!" Mario said, hitting him in the chest and knocked him toward the ground but Mr. L recovered as he fired lightning bolts at Mario and Bowser to hold them back and then did the same for Marnie and Neo. Kamek appeared above him and launched fire magic at him from behind. Mr. L turned to him and then jumped over to hit him, but he disappeared where Roman would shoot at him with his cane to knock him down.
"Heheheh… not bad… but this is where it ends!" He exclaimed, putting his hands together and forming a ball of lightning. "Say goodbye!"
BOOM!
"Huh?!" Mr. L turned around and saw Brobot exploding as Mew transformed back.
"As Kartana would typically say: That was a worthless object!" Mew giggled.
"Br-Brobot!" Mr. L exclaimed in surprise, as his distraction was enough to have Marnie get behind him and grabbed him, holding him in place.
"Someone smack his head!" She yelled as Neo would run over and smack him upside the head with her umbrella, Bowser smacking him with his fist and Mario hammering him all the same time.
"OOOOF!"
End BGM
"Uuugh…" Mr. L groaned as Marnie let him go. "Where am I…?" He wondered as the Phantom Four were tossed near him, all of them groaning. "G-guys…?" He asked and rubbed his eyes.
"Luigi…" Marnie smiled.
"Heya bro!" Mario waved.
"Mmm… why are you-"
Suddenly, Dimentio appeared above them. "Oh no no no, this will simply not do." He said, snapping his fingers as Mr. L disappeared from them, along with the Phantom Four.
"NO!" Peach yelled.
"YOU!" Marnie yelled as they all glared at Dimentio.
"Ahahahaha, the tale of Mr. L and the Phantom Four doesn't end here~! Ciao~!" Dimentio said and then disappeared.
No… Neo thought, looking down saddened as Marnie put a comforting hand on her shoulder.
"Luigi…" Hoopa whispered, a tear escaping his eye while Marshadow clenched his fists.
"Rrrgh…" Mario growled. "That no good son of a-"
"Ooogh, headache…" A voice said as Squirps approached them, shaking it off. "What'd Squirps miss? Why do some of you look sad?"
"It's complicated…" Ruby said quietly, seeming a bit distracted as Yang looked at Ruby before giving her a hug.
"Oh… well, in that case… the Pure Heart is this way!" Squirps said cheerily as everyone else walked behind him in silence as they would go into the next room. "Mother! Mother, Squirps is here!" Squirps exclaimed, heading over to a statue.
"This is your mother?" Weiss asked.
"Yes, her name is Squirpina XIV, and she was entrusted by the Ancients 1,500 years ago. You see… she was the queen of a lost civilization known as Squirpia. Squirps was placed in a hibernation capsule in hopes that he would be a guide for the heroes!"
"Wait… hold on… queen?" Tippi spoke up. "That would mean…"
"Yes, Squirps is a prince. His real name is Squirp Korogaline Squirpia!" He grinned. "Squirps believes that his quest is over, so here you go!" He said, handing over a Blue Pure Heart as he then turned to the statue. "Phew… Squirps feels kinda… tired…" He let out a yawn. "Mother… I… I did my best, right? Are you… proud… of me?" He groggily asked before closing his eyes.
"…Is he?" Ruby quietly asked.
"Yeah… I believe so." Roman said.
"Come on." Bowser turned around. "We've done all we could… so now, let's-"
"Zzzzz…"
"Huh?!" Bowser turned back and saw a bubble coming out of his nose.
"Zzzzz…. Memememe…"
"…You gotta be kidding me! He ain't dead!" Bowser grumbled.
Steve walked forward as he built a small bed for him and gently placed Squirps on it, tucking him in while Hoopa opened up a ring portal as they all went through it.
Meanwhile, at the Pit of 100 Trials…
A Warp Pipe emerged on the 100th floor, as several bones shot out and landed in a pile as Dry Bowser's head popped out and landed in the pile, where he would reassemble himself. "The most efficient way to go through a Warp Pipe." He said, readjusting his head and then walked forward.
"HALT!" A voice roared as suddenly a massive lavender dragon that looked exactly like Fracktail appeared before him.
BGM: Fracktail Appears (Super Paper Mario)
"Who dares enter the sacred room of the ancients… and dare to disturb my slumber!"
"Go back to sleep. I came for something important."
"You will find nothing here. Leave now!"
"No."
"Then I, Wracktail, will punish you… with death!"
Dry Bowser chuckled. "A big bad dragon wishes to challenge me? Very well then."

BGM: Fracktail Battle (Super Paper Mario)
The God of Wrath - Wracktail
Wracktail flew into the air and did his normal tactic like Fracktail did before as he flew around in the background. "Heh, is this just for show?" Dry Bowser chuckled as Wracktail dive bombed him, but he simply moved out of the way and watched Wracktail go by, as he then flew overhead.
Dry Bowser got into position as Wracktail started chomping on the ground to try and eat Dry Bowser, but when he got closer, Dry Bowser grabbed a hold of his mouth and with a mighty yell, he flipped him over behind him as he landed directly on the ground upside down.
End BGM
"OOOF!" Wracktail grunted as he started to short circuit, his eyes starting to circle crazily. "Handicapped features enabled. Changing strategy!" He said and dug underground.
BGM: Big Bad Baby Bowser/Big Boss - Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island (GaMetal)
Dry Bowser readied himself as Wracktail slowly emerged from the ground, his whole body coming out as he curled his body around similarly like Rayquaza as he looked directly at Dry Bowser. "Any last words, outsider?"
Dry Bowser smirked. "Yeah. You should have gone back to sleep."
Wracktail let out a chuckle. "Unusual thing to say, but so be it! PREPARE FOR DEATH!" He declared as he let out a roar while Dry Bowser got ready. Wracktail dove underground as Dry Bowser looked around for a sign that he was coming up, then noticed the ground underneath him started to shake as he jumped back as Wracktail did a corkscrew charge as he flew directly above Dry Bowser and breathed out fire as Dry Bowser breathed blue flames as both of them connected and caused a small struggle before Dry Bowser jumped up into the air and punched Wracktail in the head to send him crashing into the ground.
Wracktail snarled as he sprang back up and attempted to smack him with the tail, but Dry Bowser grabbed him by the tail and threw it at him, making him slap himself with the tail as electricity came out of Dry Bowser's hands and unleashed a lightning storm that struck Wracktail and did severe damage on his antenna. Wracktail let out a roar and then his antenna lit up and started to fire lasers at him that forced Dry Bowser to move out of the way as Dry Bowser would get underneath and deliver a strong uppercut that made Wracktail's head snap back.
"Impressive!" Wracktail complimented as he flew up and then grabbed himself by the tail and flew in a circle, striking Dry Bowser with lightning bolts of his own as Dry Bowser responded by unleashing another electrical storm as the lightning bolts hit each other and caused massive electrical explosions that covered the two. Once the smoke cleared, Wracktail would see Dry Bowser gone as he would notice Dry Bowser above him.
"VOLCANIC PUNCH!" He yelled, but Wracktail narrowly avoided the attack as Dry Bowser slammed his fist into the ground, causing a massive earthquake that would cause the entirety of the Pit and the underground of Flipside to start crumbling. Debris started to fall on them, but both of them weren't even concerned as they breathed fire at each other, both of them colliding as it made a powerful explosion as Dry Bowser would deliver a massive punch to his head to make Wracktail's head spin. Wracktail shook it off and bit down on the Undead Emperor, swallowing him whole… but Dry Bowser would start wracking up damage from the inside as Wracktail was groaning in agony… and then black fire started to come out of his body as Dry Bowser emerged from his gut.
"Heh, a bad case of indigestion if I've ever seen one." Dry Bowser said, watching Wracktail writhe in agony over the Oblivion Fire, but Wracktail gave Dry Bowser a harsh glare and despite the Oblivion Fire spreading, he was determined to kill him as he fired lasers directly at him as Dry Bowser avoided these as he delivered another punch before jumping in the air and grabbed his antenna, ripping it off from his head and jumping off as he pointed the antenna over at Wracktail and fired a huge laser that engulfed him as Wracktail roared in agony before falling limp as Dry Bowser landed on the ground.
End BGM
"I'll be taking this." Dry Bowser said, absorbing the antenna's powers as he tossed it to the side as his right hand glowed and aimed it directly at Wracktail. "Any last words?" He asked.
"I… I am not the only one that the Ancients have hidden…" Wracktail said, still being consumed by the Oblivion Fire. "The Flopside Pit of 100 Trials… it will consume you!" He exclaimed.
"Then that is where I will go next." Dry Bowser said, firing a laser from his hand that finished off Wracktail as he turned around and started to walk away from the Oblivion Fire consuming Wracktail… but his eyes turned to a treasure chest that appeared near him. He walked over and opened it up out of curiosity.
"Oh wow! You destroyed Wracktail pretty good! …And the whole place… it's still crumbling!"
BGM: Strange Company (Super Paper Mario)
"And who are you?"
"The name's Dashell and my priority in life is basically run away from everything in the heat of the moment! …Say, you look different. You an outsider by any cha- HGRRRK!" He yelped, as Dry Bowser grabbed a hold of him.

BGM: Bowser's Theme (Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story plus Bowser Jr's Journey)
"Your power is speed?"
"Mmph… yes…!"
"I could use that." Dry Bowser said, a purple aura surrounding his hand and started to drain Dashell's powers.
"Nnngh! What are you… doing…?!"
"Taking your power for myself." Dry Bowser said. "Give myself a major advantage."
"Wh-who are you…?!"
"An emperor." Dry Bowser responded, as he let go of Dashell, letting the power of speed flow through him. "Farewell, insect." He said and turned around. "I will go to the Flopside Pit of 100 Trials… and I will find it." He declared and walked off.
"Nnngh…" Dashell groaned, completely void of color now. "I… I need to… go and… warn everyone…" He said, sluggishly flying toward the hole in the ceiling as the debris kept falling into the pit.
Dry Bowser is gonna be a handful!
