Planet Bomber...

Bomberman removed his armor as an attempt to calm down his revived enemies. This only provoked them even further as he lowered his arms. He did see someone in the midst of the adversaries though. A friend that he has also killed multiple times. Grand Bomber, one of the Super Combined Bombermen. Bagura watched as he gritted his teeth, hoping that Grand Bomber was loyal enough.

"Grand Bomber! I'm sorry that I killed you!" Bomberman exclaimed as he backed up a bit.

Grand Bomber closed his eyes and summoned... a flower. "... Let me get over there!" Making way to Shiro's side of the dungeon, he kept a calm face.

Behind Bomberman, the Robot Masters and Bombermen stared. Cheery ripped off her armor and clenched her fists, engulfing herself with gold and red light. Wearing red chest armor, golden bracelets, a mini-skirt, and a yellow mask, She-Bomb stood there, ready to help Bomberman. Grand stood in front of Bomberman, looking like he became a hostile, but he isn't.

"I know that it is you, Shirobom."

"... That's true..." The two stared at each other before hugging, baffling both sides. "I didn't even want to kill any of you guys, but I had to protect everyone. I- I'm speechle- *thwak!*" Bomberman was met with Grand's left hook, seeing Grand's eyes glow purple. "G- Grand?!"

(Play Super Bomberman R Music - Great Gattaida: Boss Extended...)

"Hnh! The weak and naive have no purpose to live... THAT is the price of neutrality!" Bagura stood next to Evil Bomber, raising his left hook as though he was Grand Bomber. That in turn made the possessed Super Combined Bombermen member copy his very moves. He then took control of the other enemies of Bomberman that aren't willing to join his cause, chuckling as he felt a rising power in his body. He then commanded his newly conquered army. "This is MY empire now! I will CRUSH you, Bomberman! I will END you! I AM ALL POWERFUL!!!"

"*Cr- crack!* Better start it then! Since I'll fight you ALL OUT!" Bomberman angrily summoned a massive hard block arena that allows him to jump from wall to wall and dodge any of his Bouncy Bombs that can strike from anywhere.

As the two fought, the provoked Bagura grew to a larger size as he tried to crush his smaller opponent. Bomberman constantly jumped from one spot to another as he punched bombs away. He then fired a Daman Marble the size of a human fist to provoke him into lowering his guard.

"*crack!* DIE ALREADY, YOU PUNY MORTAL!" Rays of light struck from nowhere as Bomberman dodged lasers fired by Lady Bomber and Beauty Bomber, rockets and bullets from Assault Bomber and powerful gusts of wind and lightning from Cyclone Bomber and Thunder Bomber. As he ran, he was targeted by Natia of the Four Devils of Garaden, using her 'pet' to fire missiles, forcing him into pumping his bombs.

"Grr... *Hiss!* Fire Bomb! *hi- fwoosh!* Power Bomb!" The black bomb Bomberman normally produced had a bold yellow P on the enlarged explosive. He then threw it at Bagura to stun him as he made his next strategy, only to duck when Hammer Bomber's mace/morningstar flew at the height that could have gave him a concussion. That struck Natia, who fell off her android.

"Cheery! Line Bomb! Then expose Bagura!" She-Bomb nodded as she and Ki sent bombs out to shield him from incoming water bombs made by Mermaid Bomber and Aqua Bomber (Dark Force). Leaving the dungeon, She-Bomb morphed back into Cheeryyuki... To reveal everything to the public.

(Stop the song...)

Somewhere else in the dungeon...

Kirby was the first to wake up. He saw Susie, King Dedede, Ribbon and Adeline, all knocked out, but that's it out of his friends from the previous dimension he lived in. He was standing right next Emu, Asuna, Rock and Tempo. Ice, Taizo, Masuyo, Gentaro, Nadeshiko, Eiji and the Greeed were also there, scattered. The oddest part was that the Robot Masters from the Light-Wily Deathmatch games, Wood Man, Air Man, Bubble Man, Heat Man and Crash Man were also there.

He gave Emu a hard kick to the balls to wake him up.

"*kick!* OW! My balls..."

"Wake up everyone! We aren't in your home! Blyat." Getting up, Emu shook Asuna, who helped in waking everyone else up.

"Wh- What happened?!" Rock muttered out as he and a garbage covered Wood Man got up and stared at each other in the eye.

"... I guess Metal was right..." Wood Man sighed out as he scraped a moldy bag of peanuts off his left shoulder in a depressed fashion. "Dr. Wily's a terrible person..."

"What happened?" Rock asked. It was now Bubble Man's turn to talk.

"H- He considers us as obsolete and useless... Dr. Wily tried to scrap us! His FIRST independently made Robot Masters!" Now Rock stared at the DWNs in pity.

"... I- I'm sorry that you guys had to deal with that." Looking up, Wood Man had something to say.

"And we're sorry for hating you guys and the other DLN units for no reason... Right guys?" He asked out loud, receiving nods of approval from the other DWNs.

"*Vrr!* (Right!)" Air Man spun, struck a pose, and gave Rock, Ice and Tempo an eye-smile.

"Where are we though?" Asked Rock. Explosions rocked the floor beneath them. "Does anyone see a door?"

"I see a door... *vrrrrrr!* With stairs behind it." Tempo responded, finding a locked door and breaking its lock. They all ran out to the dungeon's lowest floor to see an unexpected sight.

Shiro/Bomberman was fighting a small army inside an arena IN the lowest floor. They saw more Bombermen and even saw Cut, Guts, Fire Man, Bomb, Crete, Toto, Gem, Honey and Galaxy.

"*BA- BA- BA- BOOM!* CURSED LOWER LIFEFORM! DIE ALREADY!" Bagura smacked Bomberman into a wall. "You will never outsmart me, never over-power me, Bomberman! You are pathetic!"

Bagura started stomping the now armorless Bomberman as he made everyone watch in horror. Kuro and Akabo tried to run to Shiro and push Bagura away, only to be forced into a wall. Ao had to shield Momo, Ki, Mizu and Midori from falling debris. Bomberman was still alive though, struggling to get up. Leaning onto his left leg, Shiro got out of his persona, gripped his scarf and got up, bloody and worn out. Ditching his cracked exo-skeleton/helmet and laying it down to the cold floor, He closed his eyes and fired...

"D- Daman B- Blast! *pew!*" a Daman Marble flew at the furthest wall like a massive hailstone falling from the sky shattering it before Bagura could do anything.

Chapter 24 end...

Well... It was semi-dark! That's for sure.
