Cloud Strife. Aside from a character from a highly regarded RPG game and the butt of many 'overcompensation' jokes, he is also a combatant in the web-series known as DEATH BATTLE. And as a combatant, he was invited to the strange world of Net City… Which ultimately came under attack, and left him, and several other of the combatants stranded in another universe adjacent to the one they were residing in.
Now he seeks to find his friends, locate his home universe, and figure out what happened to strand him in the world known simply as 'Shatter.'
"Whew!" He said, wiping away the sweat from his brow, "This was a bit of a pain, but I think I finally got the engines working again. At least this is something I know how to fly…" He hopped into his ship, and started to look around.
"Okay, my comms device should tell me when my life support system is running low. So hopefully, I find some place to stay until I can recharge it. Thank Toriyama for Senzu Beans, I would have starved… Shut it, Zack. I'm not talking to myself! Good grief, I thought I was done with this." He muttered.
"Okay, atomic batteries to power, to speed, and blast off!- Heh, I always wanted to say that… Look, I know that it's not- You know what?- I'm talking to a hallucination. That's what's happening. I've been isolated for so long, that I'm talking to a figment of my imagination!"
Cloud started using his newfound ship to traverse the area around him. The ambiance was rather peaceful all things considered.
"Huh… Well this is kinda-"
*BIP! BIP! BIP!*
"What the- We already found a moon with life support to dock?- How is that… Even… Possible…" Cloud's eyes widened as he saw what his device was picking up.
"What the fuck were we fighting that it forced us to bring out the Death Star!?"
"So, all of our standard vehicles are here. And it looks like it's seen better days…" Cloud sighed, "Seriously! What happened?"
Cloud looked around. There wasn't much to see around the place. Fenrir's left wing was torn off, and the Bumblebee was cut in half… Lengthwise… From the top. The F-Zero was not missing, thankfully enough. So tracking the energy from that thing shouldn't be too troublesome. Some of the villains' vehicles were also there too, so the Sweet Tooth not being present was a bit of a concern.
"Spare Gundam parts… But no Gundams." Cloud noted, "Well, at least Zechs and Amuro aren't walking around without their main weapons. I hope that they're not too badly stranded. Then again, if I could find a spaceship and then this place, they can't be that bad off."
Moving around the space station, Cloud eventually found himself at the ship's security footage.
"And of course the files are corrupted. Not like anything here could be easy. Well, let's take a look as to what we can recover…"
"Knuckles! Hang on!"
"Sonic? Where are you? The entire ship's going down!"
"Anakin! Help me hold this ship together!"
"Luke… Where is Luke?! WHERE IS MY SON!?"
"YANG! NYU! STAY CLOSE TO ME! WE'RE MAKING IT OUT OF THIS!"
"Alien X isn't helping! Hal! What about-"
*BOOM!*
"AUGH!"
"My Power Battery's drained? HOW!?"
"STANGE AND FATE ARE DOWN! WHAT'S HAPPEN- AAHH!"
"BATS, IF YOU DIE BEFORE I GET TO YOU, I SWEAR-"
"Cloud? CLOUD!"
"ULTRON! LOOK OUT!"
"MAINE! NOO!"
Cloud looked at the files. They were all in audio form, unfortunately, but he got what he needed. Both teams were apparently on board trying to fight off… Whatever was strong enough to warrant all of them team up to fight against it.
If anything, it was a start. Now the only thing left to do was to go out and find the others.
Wade: So, Pyra and Mythra are fun.
Dude: …
Pinkie: Aw, c'mon X! You can't be that mad about losing to them.
Dude: I'm not mad about just that, I'm mad that I lost to them while I was using Byleth!
Wade: You somehow got the color you wanted. Besides, you spammed Up-Special, what did you think was going to happen?
Pinkie: Yeah! You spiked me off stage! Which is weird, because I could've sworn that the teleport would have let me grab ledge…
Dude: Friggin' Down Special. Making my Up-Special useless…
