Author's Note: ...THE MAD LAD HAS ACTUALLY DONE IT! I almost can't believe this but we are actually getting minecraft in smash. And there was no indication, no rumors, no leaks that it was minecraft. Heck I was leaning more towards Crash potentially showing up that day. Steve and only Steve will be in the mansion following the special episode. No cameo from him in this chapter though. Also, sadly Travis has been deconfirmed, but I will plan an appearance from him in Season 6.
Next up in regards to the poll I started when the movie was rolling out. It is now closed. The winner is Kasumi with four votes. So within the first few episodes of season 6 namely episodes 3-6 I will get this arc going and Kasumi and Joker together.
Now for chapter details. This is the final part of the movie. As we already know the city that will be under attack is Seattle, Washington! There are two reasons why I chose here. First of all, it is next to Redmond, Washington (which is where NOA is.) The second reason is the fact that the inspiration of this series Smash Life takes place in Seattle. Those are my two reasons for choosing this place. This is the final part of the movie and a post-credit scene will be posted separately later today or tomorrow. As for Incineroar, the thing he's been destined for since Christmas is at hand. Onto reviews, the first one if from a Guest.
"I bet that Master Hand would be furious at Marth for leaving the mansion and going against his order. I hope Master Hand trust Mario and Marth that his group alone won't stand a chance against Hades. How would Master Hand feel when he got exposed to the public?"
Well whether Master hand would actually be furious or not kinda depends on the situation. Next review is from ultimateCCC.
"Some Smasher is going all Leeroy Jenkins look him up and you'll know also is Viridi gonna go ballistic on Hades?"
Yeah I've heard of the meme but I never had the full story so thanks for warning me on that. If I was going to have someone to do that they would also have to do or be gravely wounded almost immediately. We'll see what I can do. Next review is from ZygardeFusion.
"1) I'm getting serious Broken Masquerade vibes from this. If you don't know what Broken Masquerade is, it's a canon about the SCP Foundation, a secretive group that works to contain the anomalous and paranormal being forced into the public after a huge disaster. I'm wondering- what's next for the Smashers after they get thrown into the public's eye? Will the government give leniency to the characters for saving Seattle? Or will they lock them all up somewhere and forcefully research everything they can, in order to contain any potential threat from other dimensions?"
2) If you're looking for characters to add to the next season, may I suggest some of the Warframe cast? Warframe's a game for Switch and PC, among other platforms, and I think some of their abilities and characteristics could be interesting additions to the story.
3) What are your opinions on stories that involve the Smash Bros cast going to the real world in general? I think that they're pretty good, if the writer knows what they're doing. Wanted to hear your thoughts, since I know a lot of people have their own perspectives about these stories."
Hope you're doing alright in these turbulent times. Don't exhaust yourself too much while writing, you've done great so far. I can't wait to see what comes next!
1. Oh god no. The next arc will not be getting that dark, let's just say it'll be an Avengers New York situation. We'll be back in the Smash Mansion for the special episode and season 6. Heck there's a likely chance no major plot will be taking place on Earth again after this.
2. I have been looking into other series to include, but Warframe I did not look at. We'll have to wait and see.
3. I think the topic could go really well if you know what you're doing and you make sure to mostly include actual places. The story that inspired this one, Smash Life, takes place right in Seattle actually and has included areas around the city. You'd be surprised how many stories I've seen that have taken place in the real world. Though truthfully the answer is not a lot, the ones I did see though were pretty good.
And I am doing perfectly fine. This year may not be ideal but it's not entirely bad.
Okay before we get started I'm putting a warning here for potential blood. And I will be utilizing the full potentials of what would be a PG-13 movie. There's going to be an F-bomb in this chapter.
The ULTIMATE Smash Bros Series
The Movie
Fight for Earth
Finale: Once and For All
(April 14th, 2020)(3:00 PM)
Redmond, Washington
Right above the Nintendo of America building a large portal had opened up from above. The Lor Starcutter then came out of it and swung around as the portal closed. The ship then came to a slow stop and hovered just over the roof as the door opened.
Magolor and Mario came running out of the ship as the door opened. The latter got right at the edge of the roof and took the pair of binoculars out and looked over to Seattle. Mega Man came out of the ship just a second later, followed by Sonic, Incineroar, and Spyro, saying, "Hopefully they don't mind us parking the ship here."
"See anything Mario," Sonic asked as he looked over the ledge of the roof.
"Not-a yet," Mario said as he continued to scan the area. "Come on this-a has to be the place."
"Can we be sure," Spyro asked, still skeptical of this whole thing. "Hades could have easily been deceiving us. Besides, there are many more important cities than Seattle. Like maybe Los Angeles, or maybe even St. Louis. Hell, Tallahassee for all I care!"
Magolor was currently looking around himself with his own pair of binoculars. He then noticed something and pointed outwards saying, "There's a portal opening up on top of the Space Needle!"
Seattle, Washington
Said portal was indeed right on the roof of the space needle. Walking out of it was Hades, followed by 2028 Ema. Who was holding the device. Hades looked over Seattle saying, "Ah yes, a great root of Nintendo. Perfect place to start my conquest."
"I need to be leveled in order for this device to work," Ema told Hades as she tried placing the device down. Only for it to slide down a bit before she stopped it.
Hades huffed and looked over at the tall tip of the Space Needle in front of him. "Well, we can solve that problem." With one swipe the tip of the Space Needle was cut clean off and fell over. The tip then fell off the building and into the streets below, crushing three cars. No one was in them.
People down on the street were shocked as the tip of the needle crashed down and looked up to see what was going on. "What in the world caused this," one guy said.
"I think I see a figure up at the top," said another one of the citizens. That citizen then got an idea that made sense. "This is an alien invasion, oh everyone at my old workplace said I was crazy. I'm gonna be the one laughing if this makes the news."
"You may not be able to laugh if this is an invasion," said a woman.
Akechi came out of the portal not much sooner and looked down at the street where the needle crashed into saying, "Yeah, people noticed we're here." Akechi turned to see Hades grinning evilly, making him uneasy for some reason.
"Good, more people to witness my declaration of conquest. To think no villain from anywhere in the Multiverse had thought to do this before," Hades said. His hands then glowed with power, "Speaking of declaration.. Ema! Are we all set to go."
"Almost there," Ema said as she placed the device down and pressed a button. The machine extended into the large machine and bolted itself to the space needle. Ema then placed the portal raygun inside and pressed some buttons. Electricity began pulsing from the raygun and it was pointed upwards. "Okay, if Bass and I did this scientifically enough the machine should keep the portal open for a full day. Instead of fifteen minutes. It will also manipulate the travel time so the troops can get here almost instantly."
"Good," Hades said. He then looked on at the city thinking, My conquest starts here.
Akechi looked on with determination of the whole thing. "I guess this is the final fight."
"Indeed."
Nintendo of America building
Magolor had brought everyone inside the Lor Starcutter out so they could be given the rundown of the objective. They were all in gear and were ready to fight. "Okay everyone we may be small but the army Hades has isn't really all that strong," Dark Pit said. It was decided he and Viridi should make the plan since they dealt with Hades before. "Regardless we need to get to the needle and shut Hades down. As well as rescuing Pit stain because who knows what's going on over there.
No doubt Hades is about to start if chopping off the tip of the needle is any indication. We're going to take the Starcutter into the fight, but we're all going to be scattered around the area to help evacuate the area and fight off the first wave of troops that come."
"Those of you with strong and or ranged abilities will be towards the center of the fight to keep things contained while we evacuate the citizens," Magolor said.
"Zero what's it looking on the Space Needle," Mega Man asked the future robot.
"Three people," Zero said, looked like he was using a scanner built into him. "Hades, Akechi, and someone known as Ema Skye in my database. This one looks older, however, she must be what's causing the absurd amount of time vortexes showing up in the normal vortex."
"No doubt Hades has her under his control just like he did with Kasumi," Fox said looking through the binoculars. "There's also a device of some sort. I think there's a portal raygun in that."
"Let me scan that." Zero paused for a couple seconds before resuming movement. "It is a device but I don't have too many specifics on it from this distance. Only that it's made to keep a normal portal open for longer than usual and manipulate travel time."
"If I had to guess he's probably going to use that to get troops there," Shulk said. "Meaning if we can take out that device-"
"Hades will be vulnerable," Fox said, finishing Shulk's thought. "Okay so our target is evacuating the area first and then getting to the Space Needle."
"Uh guys, that device looks like it's powering up," Incineroar warned.
"Everyone in the ship," Magolor shouted. Once everyone had crowded into the ship the door closed and it was off.
Seattle, Washington
Hades was looking at the device as it powered on. "Okay charge level at 20%... 30%," 2028 Ema said as the number continued to go up.
"It is time, Akechi we set to go," Hades said. The god of the underworld was looking right at a camera on the tripod. Akechi was set up on the floor with a separate laptop.
"Not a miracle worker, but I've managed to get this to broadcast across Washing, Oregon, Idaho, and California when turned on," Akechi said. Hades had to resist rolling his eyes at that. It was better than nothing though. "Going live in 3… 2… 1!"
Music: Corneria - Star Fox Zero
All of a sudden all TVs phones and computers across the four states had gone static. In a coffee shop within Seattle the TV that was playing the news had gone off and the worker was toying with the remote. "Come on. Was working fine just a few seconds ago," said the worker.
"Something's showing up," said one of the customers. Everyone looked on as Hades appeared on the screen with his grin. "Who's that?"
"Hello citizens of the pacific states and Idaho. I was hoping this would be national coverage but technical difficulties," Hades said back at his position on the Space Needle. "Let's begin with introductions. My name is Hades, god of the Underworld in a world known as Skyworld. I laugh really, you think you know everything you can about your own world when it is not true. There have already been reports in New York and D.C. at this point, but you've only scratched the surface in the game worlds.
Up until now you've believed only those that lived on Earth in their games existed among you. Phoenix Wright for example, a defense attorney in LA. Or maybe even the phantom thieves themselves, a little group in Japan. Well that's wrong, there are countless worlds, dimensions, timelines! All based on the very games made by the companies. In the time when first made we had no way of travel. Until the existence of the Smash World came to be.
This world opened a connection, gateways. A way to traverse the countless worlds through what's known as a simple portal vortex. In each world of course there are your heroes, but there are also villains. I am one such villain, none have ever thought to attack the real world. Because they were too weak to do so! But not me!"
"Machine is charged and ready to fire," Ema shouted. Akechi moved the camera to the device, completely pulsating with energy.
"I will make my stand today! With this machine I will punch a hole into the fabric of reality and open the portal vortex! My army shall arrive and we shall take over this city as my dominion followed by the country and then the whole world! And when I'm done I will traverse the worlds and continue until each and every one is under my control!"
An engine could be heard and Hades looked up to see the Lor Starcutter coming in hot. Akechi moved the camera to show the Starcutter. "Ah! Right on time are we heroes! There's nothing you can do! You shall meet you end today!" Hades fired a sphere of dark energy and sent it at the Starcutter. The dark energy hit the side of the Starcutter and the ship slowly went down.
"EVERYONE OUT," Magolor shouted from inside the ship and hit the button to open the door. "Don't worry about me I'll be fine!"
Those that could fly grabbed some of the others and left the ship. Those that didn't get off jumped down onto the rooftops as the ship passed over them. Magolor, Mario, and Mewtwo were the last ones on as the Starcutter crashed into the Pacific Science Center below. "That was probably the worst landing I've had yet," Magolor said getting up.
"Mario we have to go," Mewtwo said.
Mario nodded and turned to Magolor. "Will-a you be okay."
"Yeah, I'll be fine," Magolor said dismissively. The two fighters then left the Starcutter. "They may need some extra help though. Hmm.." The pilot was beginning to think back to something he had heard once.
Flashback (No POV)
Smash Mansion
February 23rd, 2020
"Oh so that was what Master Hand kept secret from you all," Magolor asked Meta Knight. The two were walking down a hall.
"Yes, a number of us left because of it," Meta Knight stated. "I asked about what they did to get Sora back. They said a device was made that allowed them to get to the world for a period of time. Master Hand tried many times though and it didn't work. They eventually left it to the story of Sora's world."
"This device. Do you think it would work if you used it the opposite way," Magolor asked.
"What do you mean?"
Magolor ran over to the side of the wall and opened a secret compartment in the ship. Inside it was a portal raygun and the device used to try and get someone through the barrier in the Shibuya copy world. "What if instead of trying to get someone into that world, you try to get someone out of it?" With determination, Magolor grabbed the items and got to work.
"Looks like they're scattered! And now for the fun to begin," Hades shouted. He turned to Ema saying, "FIRE!"
Ema pressed a button and the portal raygun shot a bright beam into the sky. Once it reached about 200ft above them it opened a large portal above the Space Needle. Once that was down, countless underworld troops began to pour out of the portal and down to the city below. "Go my army! Conquer it all!"
On the streets Samus was looking at the sheer amount of enemies. "That's a lot of them. We need to start getting people out of the buildings," the bounty hunter said.
"There's a lot of people in the buildings though," Fiora said. The two then saw multiple monoeyes coming towards them. Both of which Samus took out with her charge shot.
"Well then you may want to start," Samus said.
It was at that moment Shulk looked like he had another vision. Once out of it he quickly shouted, "Samus duck!"
Not wanting to doubt Shulk, Samus did so and watched as a two beams shot out from behind her. Shulk then went ahead and took out the wave angler that fired. "Thanks. Now go!" Shulk and Fiora nodded and ran off. Samus shook her head as some more troops came for her. "We really need to start getting raises for this."
"HOW DID WE END UP IN THE CENTURY LINK FIELD," Ganondorf shouted in annoyance. There were indeed in that very baseball park, right at the pitching mound. "There is no way we flew that far from the ship after jumping out."
"It was because this guy over here thought using Revali's gale was a good idea," Pac-Man said pointing right at Link.
"We were about to crash into concrete. I saved our lives," Link retorted.
"And now we're a good five minutes away from the main fight because of you," Ganondorf angrily said. "Not to mention there is now a crater in this field." The great king of evil was pointing right towards said crater at left field.
"Oh can we continue bickering about this. After all, it's not like the city of Seattle is being conquered as we speak," Marx said feigning innocence. Pac-Man found this rather unsettling but at least it got Ganondorf and Link to shut up.
Ganondorf crossed arms with a huff. "He's right we need to get to the fight. And no Marx, you are not going to teleport us there and be out for the rest of the fight," The gerudo said, cutting off the jester.
"Fine we walk. Well at least you guys can, I'll be ballin'," Marx said as he hopped up and spawned a show ball underneath his feet. After an eye roll Ganondorf began to lead the others out of the stadium.
Jessie, James, and Meowth were currently ducked inside a building that had its front windows shattered earlier due to them crashing in there. The three poked their heads out from below to see multiple skuttlers walking down the street. "That's a lot of enemies. We won't be able to clear them all," James said, dejected.
"Maybe we should just give up," Meowth said.
"And how would that do any justice for the situation Hades put the boss in," Jessie retorted at the two. "It's because of him Giovanni is even in prison right now!"
"Your right! This is primetime for our revenge," James said, now filled with fury.
"Let's roll on them," Meowth said.
The three jumped out of the windows and in front of the skuttlers. The three then took their position as a familiar theme played. The skuttlers looked in front of them in slight confusion.
"Prepare for trouble! Our revenge plan is here!"
"Make it double! This time you'll pay!"
"To protect the multiverse from devastation!"
"To unite all peoples within our worlds!"
"To denounce the evils of truth and love!"
"To extend our reach to the stars above!"
"Jessie!"
"And James!"
"Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light!"
"Surrender now or prepare to fight, fight, fight!"
"Meowth that's right!"
"WOBBUFFET!"
"And now that that's out of the way, fury swipes," Meowth shouted, launching himself at the enemies. The scratch cat pokemon then used fury swipes on two skuttlers, which managed to take them both out.
A skuttler cannoneer then took the front and fired at Team Rocket. Jessie and James were about to take cover when Wobbuffet used Reflect and caused the projectile to bounce off. "I thought that only worked on pokemon moves," James said.
"That's Mirror Move you're thinking of James," Jessie said. The two members then took out one pokeball. "And now to send these twerps back to where they came from. Arbok let's go!"
After a bit of walking Marx decided to at least send one person to the fight. And that was how Link got brought onto a rooftop to take out some of the army from above. Once there the champion positioned himself at the edge and fired arrow after arrow at the weaker enemies until he spotted something on the streets below. He then tapped the comm device given to him by Magolor and asked, "Does anyone else see a black van with a cat tail driving into the fight right now?"
Meta Knight who was flying around in the sky looked down and noticed the van saying, "I see it too. Does anyone know who's driving that thing?"
"I recognize that van from our final fight with Dharkon," Red said on top of Charizard while the Lizard pokemon used flamethrower on multiple enemies. "That's the phantom thieves car. Joker is probably driving that thing."
Music: Last Surprise - Persona 5
Inside the van was indeed the phantom thieves. Along with everyone else in Master Hand's group, including Master Hand himself. Needless to say, many were very cramped and there were faces pressed against the windows. "Morgana. I don't know why I ask this now but... why did you transform with room for only eight people," Athena Asamiya asked.
"Because last I checked that's how big of a group the phantom thieves were," Morgana said as Joker began to ram through many of the ground troops of the underworld army. "Well, we made it to the battle so be grateful."
"Looks like we made it too late too," Master Hand said fearfully as he looked around. "The attack has already begun, and there's way too many enemies to take down here."
"Well we hope Mario's team at least managed to somehow get here," Layton said with a muffled voice due to being pressed up against a window.
"Ah right Mario. Argh! I'm gonna get in so much trouble because of what he pulled," Master Hand said, he could practically hear that call from Nintendo now. Paying the damages for Main Street at the Magic Kingdom had already been enough.
"Well you probably wouldn't be so mad about this if you let them come in the first place!"
"Joker, we need to find a place to unload before someone does something they're going to regret," Oracle (Futaba) warned.
"Can't really find a good spot right- oh no. BRACE YOURSELVES," Joker shouted as one of the giant stone fish was going straight towards them. It didn't get the chance to attack though as a mix of a shadow ball, water shuriken, a fireball, and thunderbolt knocked it away. Joker then maneuvered the van around the giant fish and managed to skid the car into a parallel park right next to the sidewalk. "What was that!?"
It was at this point Ryuji opened the door on his end and fell out of the car. Along with Ken and Maya. "Nice of you guys to make it here," Mewtwo said, teleporting over to them.
"Oh hey Mewtwo," Ken said. The genetic pokemon was surprised the fighter didn't do a double take but guessed they either saw Hades's broadcast or the newspaper. "Good to know no one seems to have gotten hurt in that crash we saw live."
"Well we-a had everyone jump-a out beforehand. Magolor stayed with-a the ship though," Mario said. The red plumber then saw Master Hand looking right at him. "Master Hand, I-"
"Save it Mario. Right now we need to focus on the fight. If I decide to I'll chew you out later," Master Hand said. Two rings of light were then sent from the man of the mansion, clearing out a good 50ft of enemies on the ground. "Let's go! Those of you that can't fight, either help with evacuation or get somewhere safe."
Once everyone was out of the van Master Hand snapped his fingers and Morgana went to his metaverse form. "Phantom thieves, stick together. Try to get to Akechi and see if you can snap him out of the altered memories. Put him out of the fight if you have to."
"Very well Master Hand," Joker said before taking the lead.
Sirens could then be heard coming towards them. "Looks like the police are here," Chun-Li said.
"Should we get them to mainly help us with evacuating the buildings and setting a perimeter," Blythe asked once Master Hand and Mario had their comm channels synced.
"How are we going to convince them of doing something like that. We're not the police there's a chance they won't take orders from us," Spring Man asked from where he was.
Sakura turned to Chun-Li and proceeded to ask, "Um Chun-Li could-"
"No Sakura I don't think my position at Interpol would give me any pull in this situation," Chun-Li replied with.
"Just focus on the fight for now," Terry said heading off.
Ike was currently running down one of the streets by the Space needle. "They're beginning to multiple here in numbers," Ike said. The radiant hero then hit two wave anglers away from him.
"Yeah they've made it to where we are right now," Pac-Man could be heard on his end. "Doing our best to hold them off but we can't keep an eye on everywhere."
"We need that perimeter," Samus said.
"How do you expect us to do that sort of thing," Roy asked from his end.
Ike looked over where a few police cars stopped and the officers were trying to fight off the enemies themselves. They did manage to get a monoeye. "Leave that to me," Ike said. The radiant hero then ran forward to where the cars were and jumped up onto one of the cars while hitting away a skuttler. While the two officers were looking at him. "We need to get people in these buildings to safe places. Preferably the basements and/or any subway stations not the streets. We're also gonna need a perimeter as far back as… hang on. Pac-Man where are you?"
"Uhh… Pike Place Market."
"Perimeter as far back as Pike Place Market and any surrounding areas of that same distance," Ike finished saying.
"Why the hell should I take orders from you," said one of the officers.
An explosion then came from around the corner as two wave anglers came around. Ike then proceeded to use Aether and bring one to the ground before taking it out. He then took out the other one with an eruption attack which also took out two skuttlers. He then turned back to the officers as he lifted Ragnell over his shoulder.
The officer turned around, "I need men in those buildings. Get the people to the basement or subway station, keep them off the streets." He leaned into the walkie talkie he had. "We're gonna set a perimeter! Nothing gets past Pike Place Market, Cascade, and Queen Anne!"
"I have our perimeter situation solved," Ike said into the comm. "Police are gonna handle evacuation and set the perimeter. Nothing can get past Pike Place, Cascade, and Queen Anne."
"Good work Ike. If some of you guys could go to those areas and help with holding the perimeter it would be appreciated," Master Hand said.
"(On it)," Greninja could be heard saying. Even though they couldn't understand him so it was strange as to why he was given a comm.
Dark Pit was currently using his power of flight to get an aerial view of where Hades was at the Space Needle. Meta Knight was by the angel in case the power had to be cancelled. "Pit stain is not at the Space Needle," Dark Pit said. "Hades must be keeping him somewhere else."
"We have no way of knowing where that place may be either," Meta Knight said. The two then noticed an eggplant wizard preparing to fire at them and did evasive maneuvers. Meta Knight was soon able to take out the wizard and the two landed at the base of the Space Needle. They were then confronted with a large number of Underworld troops. "Looks like landing at the base was a bad idea."
"No kidding," Dark Pit said. The two then began fighting off the troops as best they could. Eventually Meta Knight decided to get them out of there and grabbed Dark Pit before going into the air. Once in the sky the clone pointed downwards saying, "Is that the Starcutter?"
Meta Knight followed to where Dark Pit was pointing and took them both down to the entrance. "Let's hope Magolor is all right," Meta Knight said as the two walked in. They then saw Magolor typing something in one the slightly busted control board. "Magolor what are you doing?"
"Sending a transmission," Magolor said, seemingly not surprised that someone else is there. The pilot then hit the send button and the transmission was off to a certain world.
"Magolor, why are you sending that transmission to the Shibuya copy world," Dark Pit said in disbelief. He couldn't believe Magolor could be this stupid. "We can't get in there, remember."
"Yes and that is exactly my point," Magolor said. The pilot then showed the two the device. "Managed to snag this from the vault while no one was looking when we were packing up. Remember that thing we talked about Meta Knight."
"That was two months ago, are you really going to try it now," Meta Knight asked.
"Try what," Dark Pit asked.
"Magolor had an idea with that device. He thinks we may have gone about it the wrong way. He thinks instead of temporarily getting someone in that world, we try to temporarily get someone out."
"You don't mean. We're going to try and get him out there with no instruction of what to do?! What kind of plan is that!"
"I sent that transmission for a reason. Now then." Magolor pushed the button and turned on the device. He then opened a portal and tossed the device through. He then quickly pulled up the tracker to see where it was. "Let's hope it makes it."
The three watched as the device went past multiple exit portals before tuning for the target one. It was awhile but eventually the tracker disappeared. A message then showed up saying "Barrier Break Successful." "It worked," Meta Knight said, "Now we can only hope he can do the same."
Hades was looking over the fight with a bored expression. It seemed pretty balanced so far but it was leaning towards their victory. The god of the Underworld eventually stretched before saying, "Okay it's nearly been an hour. I think the fun and games are over by now. Send them all in!" Shouting the last part at the portal more troops from the underworld began to come through in larger quantities. "Let's see if they can handle this."
Link was watching the overwhelming amount of troops coming through the portal now and tapped his earpiece. "Uh guys. A large number of troops are coming out of that portal now."
"Don't tell me… was he even fighting us at full power," Daisy said as more troops ended up turning her way. "Uh oh, this may be more than I can handle."

"Marth we seem to be picking up on a frequency from Seattle," Captain Vul said to the hero-king. Marth walked over to a button and pressed it to listen in. The following was what he was hearing.
"I may be strong but these numbers are too high for a multi-take down," Bowser stated unleashing a fireball.
"They're pushing the perimeter," Marx said. The jester unclipped himself as Pac-Man, and Ganondorf got behind him. "I can't keep this black hole open forever!"
"Ah! These skuttlers nearly have me pinned," Ryu said from his end. He was back against a corner.
"There's just too many," Zelda said, setting two monoeyes aflame. "Take one down five more show up and take its place."
"And there's no way we can get near the device in this situation," Decidueye shouted on his end of the fight.
Master Hand looked around in disbelief at what everyone on the comms were saying. "So it's not possible," Min Min asked through her comm.
"We're going to run out of stamina eventually and that'll be it," Chun-Li replied through the comm.
"This was-a just too much for-a us to handle," Mario of all people said. That would crush morale.
"Master Hand is there anything we can do," Roy asked as he ran next to the man of the mansion. Hades could be seen grinning sinisterly as the underworld troops continued to overpower the residents.
"I'm sorry everyone. There's just too many of them," Master Hand said. He had a feeling this was it.
All was silent between the residents that still felt the need to fight, but even that didn't last much longer. Master Hand was about to put his hands up in surrender when….
"Do not lose hope everyone. It may seem tough. There may be a lot of them, but there's more of us," said the voice of the hero-king! Through the very same comm system!
Music: The World Adventure (Sonic Unleashed) - Mario & Sonic at the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympic Games
"Marth," Robin questioned in shock. What shouted like thunder resonated through the city as one giant portal opened up above the city skyline. Multiple projectiles came out of the portal and took out a large number of the underworld army. The Halberd could then be seen exiting the portal, and it wasn't alone. The Titan Warships, Starship Mario, the wolfen fliers, and countless other vehicles came through the portal. "Master Hand… I think our calvary arrived."
The citizens in hiding looked on in awe as the Titan warships began their assault on the bigger underworld troops. Morag was in one of the ships giving orders. "Remember, we are air support. We need to clear a path for the wolfen to try and reach the Space Needle," said the special inquisitor.
"You think Hades would let us get that close so easily," Brighid asked Morag.
Morag shook her head. "I have no doubt Hades would be able to stop something like that. But those particular ships are rather fast."
Hades meanwhile looked on in disbelief. This wasn't supposed to happen, it was supposed to only be these two groups. So when did the freakin' calvary even get contacted! Akechi was currently looking over the scene with his binoculars. The phantom thief then noticed something on the Halberd's deck. "Boss look," Akechi said pointing towards the ship.
Hades looked at it himself. And through the binoculars he could see 2020 Ema Skye on the deck with Kamui. The forensic investigator-to-be was holding 2028 Ema's glasses high in the air for all to see. "Those accursed glasses! They ended up at the Smash mansion and they figured things out from there! Don't let the one here see her past self! I may be evil but I'm not risking the fabric of time."
Akechi nodded and began to move to take 2028 Ema away. Only for the wolfen to begin their assault and fire down on the needle. Hades was able to deflect most of the blasts but once landed between Akechi and Ema, knocking the two away from each other. The sudden fear that shot through 2028 Ema was enough to free her from mind control.
"We need to expand this area," Hades said. The lord of the Underworld then used his powers. Which caused the top of the space needle to open up and build a more suitable spot. "I think it's also about time I use my leverage." The lord of the underworld then snapped his fingers and Pit fell through a portal still tied up. "Ema make sure that machine stays running," Hades commanded, unaware she was no longer under his control.
While Ema was slightly confused, she soon realized what was happening and decided to keep making him think that she was under his control. "Right," Ema said. She then went to the device and then pretended she was checking diagnostics. In reality she was trying to find a way to eject and/or destroy the portal raygun inside the machine.
Meanwhile the wolfen turned around and prepared to go through a second run. That was when Leon noticed Pit on there too. "Hades has that angel in the line of attack," Leon shouted through the ship's comms.
"Break formation! Master Hand would be cross with us if we blew him up," Andrew shouted. The four ships flew past and turned back towards the Halberd.
Hades pointed right at those ships. "Blast those pieces of junk OUT OF THE SKY!"
Why did you three break the line of attack," Wolf shouted at his men from the Halberd's bridge. The ship itself was beginning to descend, landing close to the Space Needle.
"Hades has Pit on the Space Needle if we attempt to blow Hades up he might get stuck in the crossfire," Panther answered.
"You think I care about the angel," Wolf shouted in annoyance.
"Someone else probably does though," Pigma said. This caused Wolf to facepalm. The leader of Starwolf then felt a small bump and looked out to see that ship was on the ground. "You gonna join us boss?"
"Can't, didn't you forget," Wolf said, glancing over at Trucy Wright. Who was watching as Marth told Vul to stay on the ship before leaving. "I'm on babysitting duty."
"You say that like you hate it," Leon said chuckling before signing off. The others followed.
Wolf proceeded to huff and walked over to Trucy. "Come on kid, we're gonna have to wait this out in the safety of your room." The two then left the bridge in search of shelter.
(music ends here)
Hades was still recovering from the first blast that came from the Wolfen, and while doing so he was tying Pit up to a wall by the hands. The Angel was stuck sitting on the floor because of this. "Now Pitty pat you are going to watch as I eventually destroy each and every one of these troublemakers. And then it'll be your turn."
"Everything seems to be running fine on here," 2028 Ema said. Hades nodded, not sparing a glance at her. The god of the underworld then looked over the fight. A large number of the troops had been taken out in the Halberd's sweep but there was still plenty left. While he wasn't looking Ema sent Pit a gesture to wait for her signal. Deciding to trust her Pit nodded in understanding.
Hades was examining the scene along and saw a certain group making their way over to the Space Needle. "Akechi, go earn you paycheck."
Akechi looked over to see the phantom thieves rushing towards the tower right now. Akechi nodded before jumping off the tower and downwards. Hades opened up some spikes for him to swing from on his way down.
"Space Needle isn't far from here," Joker said as the group nearly made it to the entrance. Only for someone to drop giant blocks of concrete in front of the entrance. "What? Who did-"
"I'm afraid this is as far as you go," Akechi said from above. He then jumped down in front of the phantom thieves. "Hades has worked long and hard to see this plan realized we're not going to let you have it go up in flames now."
Skull (Ryuji) has had enough of this memory shenanigans at this point. "Are you for real?! How can you truly not remember us?! Didn't you forget we kicked some serious ass in the past."
Akechi faltered for a bit, slightly confused by that. His eyes were downcast saying, "I won't lie, some of my old memories before I was revived now have come back to me. But I don't recall any of them being about us having been friends. If anything the ones I've remembered have led me to learn just how much I hate each and every one of you." Akechi's eyes were full of fury again.
"At least he's remembering right," Violet (Kasumi) said, trying to lighten up the situation a bit.
"And there's something I remembered in my arsenal as well. LOKI!" The phantom thieves watched horror and fear as another persona came to Akechi. One of evil. "Time to crush you once and for all!"
Music: Decisive Battle II - Octopath Traveler
Knowing they didn't have a choice the phantom thieves took to their battle stations, with Joker, Fox (Yusuke), Violet, and Morgana stepping in front. Oracle had hopped in Necronomicon. "Guys this is going to be the same deal as the last time we had to do this. Don't do anything reckless," she said from inside.
Knowing this could be the same deal as last time Joker went ahead and called on Arsene before using Tetrakarn. Erecting a physical wall. Fox then went ahead and used Masukukaja which increased their evasion. Violet then used a Tempest Slash, which did minimum damage. Morgana then finished off their turn with Margarudyne which did considerable damage against Akechi.
"HA! You think this will take me down! I will kill all of you," Akechi said before a certain aura went around him.
"Oh no, he's just like before when we entered Shido's palace," Queen (Makoto) said with worry. "Can we even pull him out of this?"
"Only one way to find out," Joker said as he braced himself. Akechi went right for him with a physical attack. Due to Tetrakarn though it was bounced back and Akechi took a good chuck of damage from it. Akechi then pulled a desperation move and powered himself up. "We can end this."
"Skull," Fox said as he began to walk away. Skull high-fived and the baton pass was made, powering him up. "Now we can finish this."
"Persona," Skull shouted as his persona, Captain Kidd, unleashed a strong electric attack. Morgana followed it up and Akechi was knocked to the ground. "That should do it. Now we have to see if we can knock him out of it."
(music stops here)
"Akechi listen to me," Joker demanded. "Hades is using you, just like he used Kasumi, just like Bass. What kind of purpose do you think he'll even have for you when this is all done."
"Hades said he was going to make me his right hand man," Akechi said, slowly getting up, and he was furious. "I would be second-in-command, I would finally get the recognition I deserve! LIKE IT NOT JOKER WE'RE ENEMIES!"
"That's not true. It never was! Akechi everyone here is your friend, and your teammate," Joker shouted.
Akechi seemed to freeze at Joker's declaration. He then clutched his head and began screaming in agony. "No! But- it was- we were enemies! I WAS SURE OF THAT! So tell me! HOW COULD WE EVER BE FRIENDS!" Hades was watching over this with a face of contemplation.
Joker kept the same unwavering face saying, "Because you were the one who sacrificed himself so we could move on."
Akechi's eyes widened before he held his head again. "My memories! What are they! AHHHHHH!" Akechi went down on one knee and the aura around him disappeared. He was panting heavily. "The… memories they… came back. What you say is true. I...I messed up!"
"You were under a form of control by Hades Akechi, just like me," Violet said, kneeling by him. "And just like me, there's always a second chance."
Akechi only let out a light chuckle at that. "Of course you would understand this of all people, Violet." While he stumbled a bit he was eventually able to get himself standing again. "After you broke free from Hades's control and while you were under I thought more critically about the plan and how much of a bad idea it was to join him. And you're right he's proven he was using most of us for his own games. I guess enough is enough."
Joker nodded as Violet went to his side. "Good to have you back Crow," Joker said. He then turned to the rest of the phantom thieves. "No let's go-"
The leader of the phantom thieves suddenly stopped as it sounded like something had just come out of the ground. When he looked back at what happened his eyes widened…
...As he saw Akechi's eyes looking down with fear as he had been impaled through the chest by a dark spike.
Hades was looking over the scene with a smirk, his fingers having snapped moments ago. "I did warn you Akechi," Hades said loud enough for 2028 Ema and Pit. "Your life was always in my hands." Hades then made a motion and the dark spike was removed from Akechi.
Music: Aerith's Theme - Final Fantasy VII
(I don't care if this isn't Aerith I still feel like it fits.)
Akechi went knees first to the ground and didn't get back up. "Oh my gosh," Noir (Haru) said in shock, tears beginning to form.
"Akechi," Joker breathed out, Violet just had her mouth covered.
Skull looked up to where Hades was. He then snarled, "He killed him. That crazy bastard actually killed him! What the fuck is wrong with you?! Why would you do that?!"
"Skull," Queen said to try and calm him down. "I don't think we're going to get answers from him.
Oracle went on the comms. "I have good news and bad news. Good news we got Akechi back to our side. Bad news, Hades killed him in front of us."
"I should've known he would stoop that low," Viridi said on her end.
"You guys get Akechi's body and yourselves out of there," Meta Knight solemnly said. "The rest of us can handle things from here."
"Okay," Oracle sadly said. She nodded to the other and Joker went ahead hoisted up Akechi's lifeless body from the forming pool of blood. "To anyone close to Hades right now make him pay."
"Working on it," Dark Pit said through his end.
(end music here)
While shocked over what had just happened 2028 Ema didn't let it stop her from continuing what she was doing. After a couple more keystrokes and a signal sent to Pit she hit the cancel button on the device. Before long the portal began to slowly shrink in size. Hades had noticed this and his eyes widened, "No no no no no NOOO! What is going on?!"
"I don't know, something must've blown. Might've put too much power in it," Ema said, averting her eyes from Hades so he wouldn't notice their color.
"Let me see that," Hades said as he got behind Ema and looked at the screen. All it showed though was a message saying "Initiating Shutdown." With a growl Hades hit 2028 Ema to the side, who crashed right next to the pit. There were tears in her lab coat and shirt now. "And now it's all up to ME to get this stinking thing back online! I don't know how you even broke control, but once I'm done here it is death row for you!"
Ema flinched in slight fear. Pit took that as his queue and caused his bow to materialize in his hand. The angel then ripped apart the rope with it and charged at the machine. He was however grabbed by the wing. "Pitty Pat… what was your plan there," Hades said in an angry and mocking tone. He then threw Pit back against the wall. "I guess I may as well take you both out now. You have no use to me at this point anyway!"
Music: Worth It - Avengers: Endgame (timemark 0:58)
Had dark energy pulsing in his hand as he approached the two. His hand was about to go down as the two covered their eyes, but the attack never came. Because Hades's hand had been hit away by a weapon, that very weapon was performing a boomerang right now. Pit looked at it, and he felt himself go numb because he recognize that weapon.
It was the Kingdom Key…
Hades looked around and followed the keyblade. Which landed in the hands of none other than Sora. The keyblade wielder, thought to be trapped in another world. "Impossible," Hades said in shock.
"He's actually here," Pit said triumphantly. Only to get hit away by Hades. Pit shook off the attack quickly and shouted, "Go get him Sora."
"You got it," Sora said as Hades approached. The keyblade wielder then proceeded to dodge out of the way of two dark energy attacks. "FIRE," Sora shouted and flames erupted from the keyblade and hit Hades.
"HOW ARE YOU HERE?! YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE TRAPPED," Hades exclaimed in rage.
Sora simply lifted part of his vest which revealed the device Magolor had sent underneath it. "Let's just say someone thought to invite me to the party. And it was a good time to be called in too. I've heard all about what you've done Hades. And it ends here."
"And what makes you so sure about that," Hades said. The god of the Underworld then watched as the area around then seemed to get caught in a blue cyclone. Until Sonic had stopped and made himself known. "The blue nuisance."
"Would've gotten here sooner, but I was held up in the traffic down at Cascade," Sonic stated. The blue hedgehog then nodded to Pit and scooped up Ema bridal style. "Hold on, Ms. Skye!" Sonic was then off, taking the forensic investigator out of danger.
"Together Pit," Sora shouted. Before Hades could stop them both Sora and Pit hit the device as hard as they could. The latter hit the portal raygun and sliced it in half. The portal then cut out almost instantly the fighters cheering below. Sora then held his keyblade at Hades. "It's over Hades, all that's left now is you and the remnants of your army!"
Hades looked down in what was assumed to be defeat. He then chuckled evilly. "You think this is it… Something to know about me, I always have a backup plan."
While Sora and Pit were confused the walls of the area moved downwards and threw the two off the tower. "Lady Palutena," Pit shouted. Not a moment off-beat the angel's power of flight was activated and he grabbed Sora.
"What's he doing," Sora asked as Hades got up a triumphant smile on his face.
"If I can't have this city… THEN NO ONE WILL," Hades shouted. He then dug his hands into the metal and let dark energy flow into the machine. A warning on the machine blared as a ball of dark energy began to form where the portal raygun was.
(music ends here)
"That's the failsafe," 2028 Ema said in fear as Sonic was still dashing across rooftops. The blue hedgehog had given her a comm to explain things. "That was the other thing I was hoping to deactivate."
"What's this failsafe," Marth asked on his end.
"In the event the plan failed and the city couldn't be conquered he still wanted to leave a message to let the world know to fear the multiverse. It's suicide on his part, as he has to put his own energy in in order for, lack of better terms, the bomb to work. Right now the explosion would take out this area of Seattle."
"And what if that thing reaches full power," Master Hand asked, fearing the answer.
"If it reaches full power. Then you can say goodbye to Washington."
"Is there anything we can do," Peach said at her end.
"We need to either stop or kill Hades before he finishes. After that we need to either launch or somehow contain the energy."
"I can take care of the containment part," Dr. Wily said. The scientist then pulled out a device from his pockets. "It's an absorber vacuum. It should theoretically be able to contain everything. But in order for it to work in this situation we need someone who can handle extreme heat to operate it. Preferably a fire-type pokemon."
"Hear-a that Incineroar," Mario asked.
"Someone teleport me to the Needle. I'm still in Queen Anna," Incineroar said.
"What should we do while we wait for the strike team on this one," Riku asked from where he was.
"We need to keep him from charging up that thing more than he already is. So just try to distract him," 2028 Ema said as she was being placed back on the Halberd. She turned to the one who had saved her, which was Sonic. "Thanks by the way."
"Don't worry about it, not the first time I saved someone from that kind of situation," Sonic said, giving a thumbs up. The blue hedgehog then sped off. "And before you ask when was the first time… I'd rather not say!"
"Ema stay where you are. I'd say you've done your part. Time to send you back to 2028," Master Hand said as he was flying over to the Halberd. "Someone give her the glasses back."
"On it," said 2020 Ema running over to her future counterpart before anyone could stop her. When the young woman stopped she couldn't believe her eyes. "An actual version of myself from the future!"
"Did you forget about the rules of time travel," 2028 Ema warned her younger self as she took the glasses. "We weren't supposed to see each other!"
2020 Ema's eyes widened at this. "Oh no. I completely forgot. I'm so sorry."
"And now I have to send you back before things get worse. Truly though, thank you for the help Ms. Skye," Master Hand said as he arrived. 2028 Ema nodded as Master Hand snapped his fingers and she was dropped through a time vortex. He then pointed at present Ema Skye. "Get inside the Halberd now!" The young girl nodded and ran back inside the ship. "Please don't let this have any repercussions in the future."
"Oh, I got a way to distract Hades! How about I try this," Red said as he had Charizard over to where Hades was overloading the device. The pokemon trainer then took out the strongest thing in the pokemon world… a Master Ball.
"I'm sorry, you're going to try and capture him like a pokemon," Bowser said on his end. "How the heck is that supposed to work?!"
"Well, he has abilities and stuff like pokemon. Also this thing can capture any pokemon without fail so… GO!"
"Red, don't," Leaf tried to say as Red threw the Master Ball right at Hades.
The Master Ball simply hit the god of the underworld in the head and fell onto the floor. Hades stopped what he was doing quickly to glare at the pokemon trainer. "Um, was that an appropriate use of my Master Ball?"
Hades then went back and continued to overload the device, and he was somehow putting more power into it than before. Shadow looked on and deadpanned, "You freaking idiot. The Master Ball only made him stronger."
"Okay I'm here let's finish this," Incineroar said, arriving at the base of the Needle. With the absorption vacuum in his hands and Decidueye by his side. Dark Pit swooped down and picked both of them up.
Music: Hades Infernal Theme - Kid: Icarus Uprising
With Pit, Dark Pit flew upwards to the top of the Needle where Hades was still charging the machine. Decidueye then used a Spirit Shackle to begin the distractions. Hades took this bait and tried to attack Dark Pit who swooped out of the way. Sora then let go of Pit's hand and landed back on the Needle. The keyblade wielder then proceeded to use Waterga and pushed Hades back. Pit then landed on the deck next and prepped Decidueye and Incineroar for entry.
Hades took notice of this and shouted, "I don't think so!" Hades sent two dark spikes right at Dark Pit. The clone narrowly dodged them both.
"Let go I'll get him with cross chop," Incineroar said to Dark Pit. Nodding the clone tossed Incineroar towards Hades who then went up into the air and came back down in a fiery glory. It was a direct hit and Hades was on his knees.
"Whether I win or lose today won't matter. You'll all lose when that machine goes off," Hades said.
"Crazy! Get him," Master Hand shouted. Crazy Hand then proceeded to extend his fingers and pierce Hades. Ice then began to form around the god of the Underworld, managing to completely trap him.
"Ok, running out of time gogogogo," Crazy Hand said. Incineroar then got to work activating the device in his hands. Just like intended the machine began to take in the dark energy.
"We have about a minute before this thing blows," Sora said looking at the screen for the device.
"A minute you say," Incineroar said. The heel pokemon then looked at the screen of the vacuum. It said it would take a minute and ten seconds to blow. "This thing won't be done in time."
"Well we can take what we can at fifty and leave right," Pit said.
"No you heard Ema, not long after Hades started the blast radius was already the size of Seattle. The remaining ten seconds would probably just be the Space Needle and maybe into the nearby block. There's also the plus for it being so high up," Dark Pit said.
"And the machine needs to stay on to properly take in everything. Remove it too soon and the energy would just go back," Dr. Wily said.
"So what do we do," Decidueye said.
Incineroar seemed to be at a loss. Until he realized what he was supposed to do in this instance, what his destiny truly was. Looking down Incineroar told Sora, "Put up one of those light barriers around me, Hades, and the device nothing else. You guys get out of here."
"Incineroar you can't actually mean… no you can't," Sora protested.
"There's no other way," Incineroar shouted, shocking everyone. "All this time I was wondering what, just what would be the thing I would do to save everyone. And this is it, I can't deny what was probably destiny."
There was silence after that. "T-Minus thirty seconds," the device had said.
Crazy Hand was the first one to go, followed by Dark Pit. While reluctant Pit eventually followed to. Incineroar nodded towards Sora, who sighed. Sora then raised his keyblade and the barrier around Incineroar, the device, and Hades was formed. The keyblade wielder then jumped down from the tower.
It was just Decidueye and Master Hand left. "I'm sorry it had to turn out like this Incineroar," Decidueye said solemnly. "The others will know of the sacrifice."
"They better or I'm gonna haunt you," Incineroar said, gaining a final laugh from the two. With a final goodbye Decidueye took off from the tower too.
It was just Master Hand now. "When you first came you were nothing but a flamboyant person who wanted nothing more than power and glory, and now look," he said sadly. "Pulling the ultimate sacrifice so millions can live on… goodbye Incineroar." With that the man of the mansion proceeded to fly away.
Incineroar then looked to where Hades was, as the god's head was now free from the ice. "Sacrificing yourself," he said, "for what a bunch of meaningless people."
"Maybe to you, but to me. They were my family, I have to do this after all, Mewtwo said we were set on a few timelines with slight differences. I don't think this was ever one of those differences though," Incineroar proudly said.
"Famous last words. But, I guess that's not entirely wrong… not bad Incineroar," Hades said as a bright light overtook them both.
The barrier set up by Sora then shattered as a large explosion burst out from the Space Needle. Blowing up the device, Hades, the top of the Space Needle, and Incineroar. Master Hand had everyone teleported a safe distance away from the Needle before the explosion had rung out. They were watching it from where they were now.
(music ends here)
The rest of the underworld army had been taken out, Meta Knight was currently using the Halberd to check for any signs of life within the Needle. After awhile he made the announcement, "No signs of Hades or Incineroar within Seattle. It's over… Hades has been defeated."
"So he ended up sacrificing himself," Dark Pit with his arms crossed, in front of Pit and Sora. "Honestly, I thought he would end up going out a different way."
"Not the time, Dark Pit," Samus said.
"We need to-a handle some final things-a before heading back," Mario stated.
"I don't think I have much more time left in here anyway," Sora said. As if on cue a portal opened up and began to pull him back through. The keyblade wielder turned to the two angels watching as he left saying, "If you see any of my friends. Tell them I'm going to try my hardest to get back." With that Sora was taken through the portal, with it closing behind him.
"I do hope he can find his way back one day," Pit said. The two then went down the fire escape on the building they were on.
"So you're leaving Edgeworth," Phoenix asked his old friend. It was a bit later now as clean up had begun. A bus had come that was going to take Edgeworth to the airport.
"Well, Wright I really only came to help with the Hades situation. Now that he's gone there's not really much of a reason for me to stick around," Edgeworth answered. "Besides, the mansion life in the Smash World is not for me."
"Yeah I suspected that. Well, see you around Edgeworth." Phoenix had held out his hand, which Edgeworth shook. The prosecutor then began to walk away and towards the bus. "When do you think you're gonna go continue your training Maya," Phoenix had asked as he and his former assistant began to walk back to the Halberd.
"Probably another month or so," Maya answered. "I think I've strayed for long enough now."
After enough time everyone had gotten on the Halberd. They had stayed long enough and Master Hand said he had taken care of everything that needed to be addressed. Everyone was in multiple parts of the ship now as the giant portal opened up once again.
In the bridge was Mario, Master Hand, Mewtwo, Marth, and Meta Knight. The five reflecting what had happened for the past two years. "It was-a wild ride for-a sure. First the octarian's, then-a Tabuu, World of Light, tournament, and-a now this."
"So many enemies and a short span," Mewtwo stated. "Honestly I wonder if we're going to get a break now."
Music: Our Beginning - Persona 5
"Break or no break I'm glad this ended to begin with," Master Hand said. "Even if some sacrifices had to be made…"
There was a bit of silence as Meta Knight took the Halberd into the air. All the other ships beginning to follow it in the portal. "By the way how's Nintendo going to handle this," Marth asked Master Hand.
"I gave them a basic rundown of what happened and hung up," Master Hand simply said. "While I am very much mad at all of you I can't say your help wasn't needed because it very much was."
"Maybe next time. Try not to take matters into your own hands," Meta Knight said.
"Noted." Marth and Mario laughed as the Halberd went through the portal, with that portal closing behind it. The sun setting over a long fought battle.
Author's Note: And that is all for the Underworld Arc. Thanks so much to everyone that has stuck with this story for this long. I can assure you the special episode and Season 6 are being worked on at this time. I will be posting a separate Post-credit chapter later today closer to night where I am. No footnotes this time but there are references to some things in this chapter you can try to find yourself. There's still quite a bit of the Author's note left as I promised explanations to certain characters and their position in this series when this movie was over. Below are a list of characters who might not be showing up in this story again, included is their first appearance, where they come from, a percentage chance of reappearing and an explanation for why I have made these decisions.
Honorary mentions
These are prominent characters that may never show up in this story again after this movie.
Nathaniel/Agent 9
Homeworld: Inkopolis
First Appearance: Season 1 episode 13
Chances of reappearing: 5%
Reasons: Nathaniel was an OC made by me when the first season of this story was being written. I wanted to try and experiment a bit and while this did turn out well, I want to limit appearances of OCs and anime born characters from now on. I haven't ruled him out completely as there is a chance I will need him again. This carries over to Agents 3, 4, and 8 as well since I gave them the personalities they have.
Sora
Homeworld: Destiny Islands
First Appearance: Season 2 episode 16
Chances of reappearing: 0% until a certain thing happens.
Reasons: As of now Sora is still trapped within the other world. I will be leaving it to developers of the game from here. If Sora does come back in Melody of Memories then he will reappear in the story. As of now though he is no longer an official resident at the mansion and will be removed from the roster on my profile.
Hades
Homeworld: Underworld
First Appearance: Season 2 episode 11
Chances of reappearing: 0%
Reasons: He was the big bad of this first arc, due to him being dead now I have no need for him.
Akuma
Homeworld: Japan, Earth
First Appearance: Season 4 episode 5
Chances of reappearing: 10%
Reasons: I've used Akuma as a villain (albeit side role) twice now. I think now would be the time for him to be out of the villain spotlight. There's always the chance that I could use him again
Bass
Homeworld: Mega Man's world
First Appearance: Season 3 episode 8
Chances of reappearing: 30%
Reasons: Bass was pretty much destroyed in that battle in Washington D.C. But with what I have planned in the future there's always the chance he'll show back up.
Incineroar
Homeworld: Alola, World of Pokemon
First Appearance: Season 1 episode 8
Chances of reappearing: 1%
Reasons: Incineroar pulled the ultimate sacrifice on stopping Hades and because of it died. Incineroar's character development finished the second that explosion went off. The one percent is because while dead he's not out completely due to being a fighter. I could have something happen, but he'll most likely be a simulation in tournament battles now.
