Midgar – Final Fantasy VII
Cloud and Byleth continued to fight the blurry shadows that were gradually disappearing with each sharp sword. Cloud whirled with his Buster sword and partially slashed the shadows while Byleth halved the shadows with his Sword of the Creator.
Cloud: "It seems like more are coming" –he said to Byleth as he looked at the other shadows.
The blurry shadows kept getting closer to the swordsmen, but Cloud and Byleth wouldn't give up that easily and he would keep fighting. At that time, Byleth thought about being able to merge with Sothis for this, however, he discarded that idea since he did not see it as necessary until now. Cloud watched the blurry shadows approaching them, but the shadows stopped as something made them stop.
Cloud: "What?" –He said as he watched them.
At that moment, Cloud and Byleth observed from above about 3 silhouettes that gave a great jump and that attacked the blurred shadows. The swordsmen stared at them and only Byleth recognized the people who had arrived, they were the Hero (Luminary), Kirby and Pac-Man.
Byleth: "Now it's our turn" –he said to Cloud as he left.
Cloud stood still for a few seconds until he gave a slight sigh and ran while holding his sword and fighting against the blurry shadows. The Hero looked at Byleth who was fighting with 2 shadows and smiled after seeing him and continued fighting against the blurred shadows. After a few minutes of fighting, the shadows had been defeated and the fighters were able to rest for a bit.
Hero (Luminary): "Uff, we finally got rid of those wicked entities" –he said while putting away his Sword of Light.
Cloud: "What were those things?" –he ask the Hero.
The Hero stared at him for brief seconds until he insisted on speaking to Byleth alone while they were silent.
Hero (Luminary): "Byleth, it seems that they do not remember us" –he whispered.
Byleth: "What do you mean?" –he ask him.
Hero (Luminary): "What I mean is that all fighters with the exception of us, Terry, Banjo-Kazooie and Joker, have lost their memories"
Byleth: "Uhm ... I suppose yes, I mean, Cloud did not recognize me when fighting with him" –he said.
Hero (Luminary): "Exactly, Kirby and Pac-Man don't remember me either. It seems that there was something that we have missed seeing" –he said while crossing his arms.
They were both silent until the Hero remembered something.
Hero (Luminary): "Hey, didn't a bunch of white gloved hands happen to attack you?"
Byleth: "No, I have traveled every place and I have not come across that group, only those blurry shadows" –he said.
Hero (Luminary): "Well, yes, it seems that Master Hand is behind all this" –he supposed.
Byleth: "Are you sure what you're talking about?"
Hero (Luminary): "With what I have collected, Master Hand and Crazy Hand confronted us when Galeem and Dharkon were in control of the world"
Byleth: "But we all know that they were the creation of both beings of light and darkness"
Hero (Luminary): "Maybe. In any case, we must look for the other fighters and know all this"
After that, the Hero and Byleth approached where the others who were silent.
Hero (Luminary): "Listen, we have to get out of here as soon as possible, we don't know if another group of blurred shadows could come back to attack us"
At that, Cloud put away his Buster sword and was going elsewhere, but the Hero stopped him.
Hero (Luminary): "Wait Cloud, we need you to go with us" –he said.
Cloud: "How do you know my name?" –he ask him.
Hero (Luminary): "That doesn't matter, we need you to come with us, the fate of this world depends on it"
Cloud stared at him for brief seconds until he looked at the other fighters, he was going to say something, however, they all heard something and observed that they were more blurry shadows coming towards them.
Hero (Luminary): "Let's get out of here!" –he alert.
The fighters followed the Hero who was running in different directions to avoid the blurry shadows. They observed that the shadows were far away, but were still chasing them, so they did not hesitate to stop and continue running.
Byleth: "Do you know where we are going?" –he ask the Hero while running.
Hero (Luminary): "Only a miracle can happen" –he said as he kept running.
In that, the Hero found the miracle and observed a green tube that was almost close to them. In that, the Hero got in first, followed by Kirby and Pac-Man, while Byleth and Cloud stared at the green tube in a few seconds.
Byleth: "Okay" –he said as he got into the green tube.
Cloud stood still for brief seconds until he watched the blurry shadows approaching and immediately he went into the green tube where he was sucked by it.
Green Hill – Sonic the Hedgehog
In this area, located on South Island, a blue hedgehog rested on the grass while listening to the calming sound of the place. Suddenly his left ear started to shake on its own and the blue hedgehog opened one eye after that, his name was Sonic.
Sonic: "Something is going on here" –he said to himself.
At that, the blue hedgehog rose from the ground and began to stretch his body so that he could run at top speed on the spot. His instincts told him that something was about to happen, but he could not see anything out of the ordinary, so he stopped running.
Sonic: "Uhm ... I don't know if it's my thing, but I have a feeling that it won't be friendly"
A blow of wind brushed against Sonic when he realized that 3 hands that became fists descended quickly towards him, Sonic managed to observe that and he jumped back to save himself and look at a group of floating left hands watching him.
Sonic: "Hands? Is this another Eggman's invention? Although looking at them, it doesn't seem to be metallic" –he said while inspecting.
The group of left hands transformed into fists and that alerted Sonic.
Sonic: "In any case, I will have to take care of them hand in hand" –he said as he posed for his future fight.
