Authros Note: Hello everyone the time has finally come to get this thing started. Though before we start I would like to make a few things clear, while this story obviously features many different characters from all sorts of show, games ect, I will not be mentioning anything that has taken place in there respected medias. I want people to be able to enjoy this story, without fear of having anything spoiled for them. That being said, I may reference events from these characters past but I will make sure its vague, so that those who know the character know what there talking about but those who don't still have a vague idea but haven't been spoiled and can still look into it if they wanted to.
Lastly, I've decided to write the dialogue in script format so that I can keep to schedule of updating once a month. I know this may take some getting used to but unfortuantly I only have a limited time to write and I'm already writing another story, so to stop myself from going crazy with trying to meet deadlines I'm hoping this will suffice.
Speaking example: Joe: Hello James
Multiversal Madness
In an unknown location two individuals prepare themselves for the events they are about to set into motion. For now, we will address these two as A and B, for revealing there identities now would ruin the mystery. A, sunk to his knee as he addressed B in a respectful tone.
A: Its all ready sir, we need only begin on your word.
B: The participants have been chosen, a wide variety this time.
A: Yes sir, as you requested, I made sure to gather a mix of different individuals.
B: Excellent, then let the game begin!
Episode 1
A bright light blinded the vampire hunter as she snuck up on her unsuspecting prey but before she could take out the blood sucker she suddenly found herself in unfamiliar surroundings. Looking around cautiously she refused to let her guard down as she found herself wondering along a beach. Her name is Buffy, under the scorching heat Buffy felt herself becoming increasingly hot and took of her black leather jacket leaving her in just a white tank top, she also wore skinny blue jeans and black shoes. The blonde let out a sigh of relief as she came to a small puddle of what looked like drinkable water. Feeling thirsty she placed her hands together and bent down to scope up the water only to recoil in pain when something smacked her hands away. She glared up at the boy who had whacked her with the hilt of his sword.
Buffy: What was that for?
Kazuma: I just saved your life
Buffy: What?
Buffy looked at the water she had scoped up, now dropped to the ground the bubbling purple sludge burned through the sand in front of her.
Buffy: What the hell?
Kazuma: Yep, freaked me out to, have no idea what it is but best not to drink the water here
Buffy: What's going on?
Kazuma: First let me introduce myself, my name is Satou Kazuma.
The boy looked to be in his mid teens, he had long messy brown hair and green eyes. He wore a white shirt and a brown belt around his waist, a green cape tied around his neck and blue trousers with knee high brown boots. He flashed her a small smile as he placed his sheathed sword back into its holster.
Buffy: Buffy, thanks for that by the way, where are we?
Kazuma: Don't know. I woke up here sand in my mouth a few hours ago same as all the others
Buffy: What others?
Kazuma guided her through a small clearing that led them deeper into the island, after a while Buffy began to smell… Bacon? Kazuma pushed aside the greenery to which a bunch of strange looking people were gathered around, some sat on logs talking, others stood by a fire pit cooking burgers and hot dogs. One thing that caught her eye was the crystal clean lake at the back of the crowd. she never realized how thirsty she was until she spotted it but she had been deceived once already and looked to Kazuma for confirmation.
Kazuma: The lake is real, the guy in the bat costume over there was the first to try it out and that was a while back.
Buffy looked to where he was pointing and just like he said there was in fact a man dressed like a Bat, he stood at the back of the group his arms crossed, and a sour expression across his face. She ignored him and everyone else for that matter as she rushed to the lake, splashing some water on her face and then cupping some in her hands to drink. Once she had cooled of she looked back to the others and realized some were starring, especially the younger ones.
Batman: Is this the last one?
Kazuma: Well Bat's did you find anyone else?
The man in the Bat costume glared at Kazuma causing him to reconsider his snarky attitude.
Kazuma: I mean yes, I looked up and down the beach and couldn't find anyone else.
Sans: Hey want some updog?
Buffy looked at the small skeleton, if she was anyone else, she'd probably be surprised or even scared but she was used to far worse than a skeleton in a blue hoodie.
Buffy: Whats updog?
Sans: Not much whats up with you, hehehe
Regret and disgust rushed over her face as she abandoned the conversation entirely.
Lucifer: You've sent out your scouts now its time to leave
A rather tall man dressed in a expensive looking suit was auguring with the Batman, curious about there situation Buffy neared closer so she could better hear there conversation.
Batman: No, not yet, we were summoned here for a reason, for all we know we could have been summoned here to help in some bigger crisis.
Lucifer: Oh, and how exactly would a man with a Bat fetish be able to help huh? In fact I don't know if you've noticed but it doesn't look like anyone here would be good in a fight with the exception of a few.
Buffy: Then why were we brought here?
Lucifer: I don't know and frankly I don't care to know our only objective here is finding a way home.
Batman: No! If we leave now our kidnapper will just gather us up again or worse, find only option we have is to work together and figure out why we were brought here.
Lucifer: sigh, the fact that someone could sneak up on me of all people is embarrassing.
Lighting struck the ground, startling the group of extraordinary strangers, the dust cloud formed by the sand slowly began to clear as the closets caught a glimpse off a golden man.
? : There's nothing to be embarrassed about Lucy, after all even the devil isn't strong enough to take on God.
Lucifer: Do not call me Lucy!
Batman: Are you the one that brought us here?
The man arose from his golden throne, slowly parting his dark hair with a small green comb. He was dressed in a white buttoned up shirt, black blazer and trousers but a strange golden light beamed of him making it hard to see him as any other color but gold.
?: Indeed I am. My name is of no importance to any of you here but for the sake of convenience you may call me Host.
Buffy: Why have you brought us here?
Before he could answer Lucifer rushed the man with inhuman speed, in seconds his hands were wrapped tightly around Hosts throat ready to have the life choked out of him. At least they would have been had Host been just an ordinary human but unfortunately that is not the case. Time froze for Lucifer, stuck in mid leap, his hand inches from Hosts neck. Try as he might even Lucifer was unable to break free of this strange power, a fact that Host was all to happy to take advantage of. Blow after blow, Lucifer could do nothing but take the hits dealt out by Host. The others seeing what was happening charged to help Lucifer but with a wave of his hand Host stopped them all on there tracks. With one final punch to the jaw, Host unfroze time and Lucifer was sent flying through the air. The devil winced in pain as he coughed up blood, his right eye bruised and swollen, multiple ribs broken or fractured.
Host: Okay, I'm bored now.
Anne: Old man! You okay?
Lucifer: Who… Who are you calling old, cough!
Buffy: That was uncalled for!
Host: What do you mean? I was only defending myself.
Vonkarma: That was no simple act of self defense fool! What you did was assault plain and simple!
Host: So what if it was? Now you all know what happens if you try to pick a fight with a god.
Everyone looked around at each other, "God" there was no way he could actually be one, right? Similar thoughts littered the group as they all began to lose hope of any chance they may have had of escape. Host sat back down in his throne a wide malicious grin stretched across his face as he watched the fear and uncertainty begin to set in. That is until one man walked up to him, his fists clenched, he glared down at Host who looked up at him with a bored expression.
Batman: Your powerful but your no God. I've met people like you, people who get there hands on a little bit of power and instead using it to help people they use it for there own selfish reasons. Your no god, your just a kid playing pretend, but even if you are…
He paused as he neared closer glaring deep into Hosts crimson eyes.
Batman: I still won't let you win.
Host: Hmph! We'll see about that. Now then, it's time we begin the game!
Buffy: Game?
Sans: I don't think devil boy is in any condition to be playing around
Host clicked his fingers and a green light surrounded Lucifer's body, slowly the injuries inflicted on him were beginning to fade. When it was over, Lucifer slowly stood to his feet, the pain completely gone.
Ruby: Woah!
Vonkarma: How is that possible?
Byleth: It must be some kind of healing spell
Vonkarma: Healing what!
Host: Now then, allow me to explain,you all have been chosen to take part in a world changing game of sorts. The stakes are high but the winner will be given the opportunity to rewrite the world to how they desire. Want a world where your arch enemy never existed, done! Wish to bring a loved one back to life, easy! Money! Women! Power! Anything you can possibly imagine can be yours, that is if you win of course.
Vonkarma: And in this game of yours what exactly happens to the loser?
Host: Sorry but that's diving into spoiler territory.
Kazuma: Screw you!
Host: Huh?
Kazuma: You think I'm goanna fall for the same trick twice. I may be an idiot but I'm no fool!
Neptune: Pretty sure those are the same thing buddy.
Kazuma: I already have it bad enough having to listen to one God as it is! What would ever make you think I would want another pain in the ass wannabe God to deal with!
Neptune: Yeah! We don't need no God! I mean technically I am a Goddess but you know what I mean.
Vonkarma: The loud one and purple one are right, this foolish game has gone on for far to long
Host stood there watching unamused as one by one the group began to reject the game. The more he listened, the more he realized they would not play and its because of that Host couldn't stop himself from stiffling a small laugh.
Host: Kehehe. You refuse to play?
Kazuma: Damn right! No one here is goanna play your game so just send us home alr-
Silence. Moments ago, Kazuma was yelling up at Host in defiance, the next a wall of flames engulfed his body. Kazuma let out a terrified scream as he fell to his knees, he rolled around in the sand in a desperate attempt to put out the flames. Meanwhile the others tried desperately to help Kazuma but an invisible wall stopped them from reaching him, they were helplessly useless in there attempts to prevent the worse from happening.
Host watched the flames die out then turned back to the group a mix of shock and horror plastered across most of there faces..
Host: Anyone else want to go home?
Buffy: Kazuma…
Luz: I couldn't do anything…
Loki: …
Lucifer: This is it is it? We play nice or we don't play at all.
Host: Refusal to participate will result in immediate removal from the game.
Lucifer: Removal! You bloody burnt the boy to a crisp!
Unable to control himself Lucifer charged at Host, he let out a small sigh as he froze him in place only to feel a sharp blade rush across his cheek. He dropped Lucifer and touched the blood under his right eye, then looked back to the crowd where Batman was retrieving his Batarang.
Host: … Heh. Very clever. Now then, I think we've wasted enough time.
Anne: But what about Kazuma, we can't just leave him here.
Host: If you wish I could bring him back.
Vonkaram/Lucifer: Impossible!
Host: I purpose a deal, I shall not cause any of you anymore harm moving forward as long as you follow the rules and I'll bring back the boy. In return you must all agree to take part in the game all the way to the finale.
Loki: How do we know this isn't just some kind of trick
Host: You don't
Batman: We agree.
Loki: Excuse me but who said you could make that decision for us?
Batman: Playing the game is our only option, if we refuse we die, its as simple as that. Besides, I won't just stand here and pass up the chance to save a life.
Though scared and hesitant the others saw the logic in his words and eventually agreed to participate. Host clapped his hands energetically as he let out a loud laugh, the others could only either glare or look away. Sticking to his word Host threw what looked like a seed at Kazumas remains, small vines burst out of the seed slowly covering his body until they consumed him whole as a mystical green light consumed the boy. The others could barely make out what was happening as Kazuma was completely sealed in a cocoon of sorts. Then after a few short moments muffled noises could be heard from within. Not wasting a second everyone rushed to pull apart the vines, moving aside as Byleth made quick work out of them with her short sword. He dropped to the ground, coughing up unknown green liquid, Anne and Byleth lent him there shoulders as he struggled to catch his breath.
Host: There all better. Now remember to keep your word everyone or there will be consequences.
Anne: Are you okay?
Vonkarma: Impossible… Utterly… Foolishly… Impossible.
Lucifer: I agree, this isn't possible but.
Byleth: Do you have any injuries anywhere, bruises or burns?
Kazuma: Burns? Why would I-
He paused as he noticed all the eyes on him each confused and shocked as the other. Suddenly flashes of the moment before his death came flooding back and he fell to his knees throwing up.
Anne: Kazuma! What's wrong?
Kazuma: Again? I died again!
Batman: Again?
Loki: …
Host: It seems Kazuma is struggling a bit but I've run out of patience and I'm getting bored sooo…
Sitting in his throne, Host stomped his feet and every time he did the ground shook as cracks in the ground began to encircle everyone. Host started to float of into the air and seconds later a large part of the ground followed after him carrying Sans and Anne. Then another chunk of the ground was taken, this reapted until everyone was taken up into the sky. Everyone was standing on there own portion of land floating roughly 60 meters in the air.
Scott: That's a long way down
Neptune: Then don't fall.
Buffy: Is everyone okay?
Sans: Yeah, me and the kid are just feeling a little cloudy
Buffy: God damn it why'd I even ask?
Ruby: We're all good here! Y'know apart from being terrified out of my mind!
Buffy: Just be carful everyone! A fall from this height would kill you!
Host: That's kind of the point dear.
Buffy: You! What the hell is this?
Host: I was getting to that!
Host floated slightly above them, sitting in his golden throne, he had a birds eye view of all the contestants.
Host: Everyone, as you can see you've all been split up into pairs, you may be wondering why I gathered you so high up into the clouds. Well that's easy enough to explain, its because in order to win the first game you simply need to kill the person standing next to you.
Time froze in that moment as Hosts words began to sink in, everyone glanced at the person standing next to them. It was insane to think that anyone here would even consider taking a life but in actuality the fact was no one here really knew each other. No one here could say with absolute certainty that the person standing next to them wasn't willing to kill.
Authors Note: It begins. In the next chapter the first game begins a fight to the death but more on that next time. What do you think so far? Some of you may not have been what you were expecting but I hope most of you are at least a little interested in the story so far. If you are, please follow to stay up to date and leave me a review letting me know what you think. I'm hopping to update this twice a month but at the very least you will get one every month. That's it for now, I hope you enjoyed and I'll be sure to bring out the next chapter soon.
