The group found themselves in a dark realm, three pathways branching off from where they stood. The group divided itself into 3 smaller groups of 14 each. Pit's group went up the narrow, elevated path to a maze of ruined roads. Trying to understand the path was giving Pit a bigger headache than when he had been freed from Galeem's control. He hadn't been to such a confusing place since Pandora's Labyrinth of Deceit.

As they wandered around, hoping to find some kind of end goal, they came to a fork in the road, divided into 4 paths. Pit took the second path from the left. After fighting some more puppet fighters, Pit found one of the two people he was looking for.

"Rosalina!" he exclaimed. She didn't say anything to him. Her face was unfazed. "Rosie, it's me, Pit! You know, your boyfriend?" She started attacking him. He tried to block her attacks. "Rosie, you have to fight this! This isn't who you are!" She continued to fight him. "I don't want to hurt you!" He realized nothing he said had any effect on her. Diplomacy would not be enough to save her or himself. With much reluctance, Pit began using his strongest moves against her. Once enough damage had been dealt, he used his Upperdash Arm. Rosalina's body flew off into the vastness of space. When they came back to the dark realm, Pit watched her fall to the ground.

"What have I done?" Pit ran to Rosalina. He knelt down beside her, grabbed her limp body, and held her in his arms. "Oh, Rosalina," he exclaimed through sobs, "I'm so sorry! I didn't want to hurt you! Please don't leave me, Rosie!"

Rosalina moaned. "Pit?" she said, "Is that you?"

"Rosie?" He embraced her. "Oh, Rosie! Thank Palutena you're alright."

Rosalina hugged Pit back. She could feel his tears against her cheek. "Pit, I'm sorry. I didn't want to hurt you. I just…I had no control over my own body."

"But you're okay? You're safe?"

"I'm fine. Are you fine?"

"I am now that you're here." The two stared at each other. They leaned in to kiss.

Marth walked up next to them. "Now is not the time for this," he declared, "We need to find the others and then Dharkon."

"You're right," Pit said. He helped Rosalina to her feet. "You ready to fight some more?" he asked Rosalina.

"If it gets us out of this bizarre world, then yes."

The group continued to defeat duplicates and free the other fighters. When everyone was present and accounted for in the area they had traveled to, they went back to the meet up with the other 2 groups. When they got there, however, an uninvited guest was waiting for them. Dharkon was floating above them.

"Stay back," Rosalina said, "This monster took over my body, and I want payback!" Rosalina and Luma launched themselves at Dharkon. They managed to defeat him the same way that Simon had defeated Galeem. Once Dharkon had been weakened, Galeem returned. The two entered a black hole created by Dharkon. The fighters followed.

Inside was a plane divided into light and darkness. Each time a representative of the light side was defeated, the darkness spread further. Likewise, defeating representatives of the dark side caused the light to advance.

As they fought their way to Galeem and Dharkon, they found the last four fighters. Rosalina helped to free Palutena from Galeem's mind control. As thanks, Palutena defeated the original Master Hand, whom Galeem had turned into his second-in-command. Once freed, he teleported to the area in between the two evil entities.

"Oh, Lady Palutena!" Pit exclaimed. He went to hug her. "You don't know how long we looked for you! Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, Pit," she replied, "A bit sore, but I'll recover." She looked around. "Where are we?"

"It doesn't matter," Simon said, "If we don't do something soon, we may not be here anymore."

The team continued to fight the puppets and freed the other three. Once Bayonetta had freed the original Crazy Hand, the two Hands used their combined force to shatter the space between Galeem and Dharkon. An army of cloned fighters crawled out, but Master Hand managed to fight them off. Galeem and Dharkon met in the middle to try repairing the void, allowing the fighters the perfect opportunity to end this.

Rosalina, Pit, and Simon prepared to face off against the two entities that had caused all this trouble.

"Are you going to help us, Lady Palutena?" Pit asked.

"I'd love to, but I don't want Galeem to use my own powers against me. He did it once, so I know he could do it a second time."

"Well, stay safe, Lady Palutena." Pit gave her a hug.

"This isn't a good-bye, Pit. More like a 'see you later, alligator.'"

The three began climbing the platforms leading up to Galeem and Dharkon. The two entities tried to impede their progress, but to no avail. Once the heroes were at the summit, they were attacked by some of the more forceful foes they had defeated, such as Marx, Dracula, and Giga Bowser. Once they were defeated, it was time for the final showdown.

Galeem and Dharkon hovered above the three heroes. The two beings were ready to end the heroes' attempts to stop them, once and for all.

Pit stood in front of Rosalina. "The strong must protect the sweet!" he yelled.

Rosalina warped in front of Pit. ""The strong must protect the sweet!" she yelled.

Simon walked in front of both of them. "The strong must protect the sweet!" he yelled. He looked back at them. "Let's finish this the way they want to: together!"

Galeem and Dharkon attacked the heroes. Rosalina, Simon, and Pit did their best to avoid the attacks. The same could not be said of Galeem and Dharkon, who were more than eager to try fighting each other as well as the heroic trio.

When Galeem was at his weakest, Simon grabbed an axe from his arsenal. "This is for making me hurt Pit!" he yelled. He tossed the axe at Galeem.

Pit turned to Dharkon, who was equally wounded. "And this is for making me hurt Rosie!" He fired an arrow of light at Dharkon.

Rosalina stood in between the two entities. "And this is for every single thing you put all of us through!" She and Luma dealt one final attack at Galeem and Dharkon, who were so weakened that they both fell into the ocean below. They exploded, creating a wave that sent everyone back to the world they came from, finally free from the World of Light.
