20. Chapter 220: The Winds of Possibility

Chapter 220: The Winds of Possibility, Strength of the Currents of Hope.

As everyone on the Star-Killer base frantically fought with everything they had to make sure the planet turned planet killer did not destroy their hopes, those not on the First-Order's base were even more tense as they could do little more than hope that their allies could make progress before the deadline. However, some did have ways of feeling what was going on for a distance, such as Leia.

Luke's sister had only been able to sense faint feelings vie the Force, however, the moment her son killed her husband, Leia felt a volt, followed by a vision that gave her a picture so clear it's like she was right alongside Luke, Chewbacca, Lando, James, and all the others as she felt the man she loved gave one last mental outreach before his presence vanished entirely. Leia had a mental image of the sadistic look Ren had, the look her own son had as he killed his father, and cried out with such despair that all the very focused Jedi Masters around her were broken out of there trance.

The fishy Cilghael instantly went to her friend's side."Leia…by the Force what happened?"

The former princess of planet Alderaan used all of her mental will to repress her sobs before she gave a sorrowful glance to the Mon Calamari Jedi Master. "It's Han…I felt his last moments, I saw them. He was killed."

Everyone looked shocked as Corrin Horn looked grim."With how close you were I won't doubt the bound you had in the Force. I'm so sorry Leia, I won't pretend to understand the pain your feeling. That being said, as hard as it maybe we have to keep going! Could you tell us anything about what's going on? Are Luke, Jaina and are new pals ok?"

Leia looked like she was on the verge of vomiting before she slowly nodded." Luke and the others are ok, for now. But they are all endanger. His madness, his hate is on the verge of crushing everything around him. How…how could have it turned out like this? I knew I had to pay a price for living up to my responsibilities, but to have my own son worship the man I hated the most, and in ways do even more damage than Darth Vader? Would have it been better if I just threw myself into the Death Star core to? It seems it would have been better for everyone."

Kyle Katarn looked like he was struggling to control his own emotions as he yelled out," Damn you Jacen! He thinks he is superior to everyone because he'd kill his own father? That just makes him a monster! No amount of Force skills can get him out of what he has coming! Still, we should be fighting with them, not just waiting here!"

"We have a task just as vital as the Grand Master Kyle." Cilghael uttered as she looked back up at the Mortis Monolith." In case we fail, only the power of the Mortis Monolith will be able to repel the firepower of the Star-Killer base. We just have faith, and focus so we can make sure it's ready. We have to, there is not too much time left to stop Jacen or the First Order."

Leia winced, not having the heart to tell the Jedi Masters she was not thinking about Jacen, but from her son from the true history, one where none of the Jedi around her existed. She just thought of the memories she had of Ben Solo, along with the other memories from the other timeline with the three children there.

Thinking of her son Anakin dying to the Vong in that timeline, and all the times she and Ben Solo had arguments, which were a lot, caused her to wipe her eyes." In my worst moments I blamed Han for how things turned out with our son, but I know that's not right.

He had a rough life that did little to prepare him for being a father, I did. But despite how loving Bail and Breha Organa were, I learned nothing from him on how to raise a child. I don't know how my real mother Padmé Amidala, would have fared as a parent if she lived but, from what I heard I did not have her temperament, I had my fathers. Having spending so much of my life running from the Empire, even in a time of peace I never could get myself to stop running, to soften.

I spent so much time resisting that after a while I realized all I could do well was resist, repairing was something out of my skill range. I wanted to make a peaceful society so badly, but even after all the Jedi teachings Luke taught me, I could never figure out how to be at peace.

Han…I'm sorry, it was because I kept running away that things got so out of control. I just wanted to make a better future. I have to make one, so that it was not all for nothing. No, Han, I won't let everything you went through be for nothing, I won't!"

Leia's outburst of emotion caused the Mortis Monolith to glow. Suddenly, the massive mystical object shimmered with light before it suddenly floated into the air. As it grew brighter and brighter Kyle looked wearily at it." The Mortis Monolith at last finished charging? Is this legit? Talk about…good timing."

Cilghael saw how focused Leia suddenly looked before she gulped." It seems, Leia 's surge of emotion caused the Mortis Monolith to have enough energy to finish charging. Let's just hope it's not too late."

Snake and Raiden's comrade Otacon glanced at the data before he winced." If Snake was able to make it my worm virus might be able to slow down the Star-Killer base a bit but I have no idea how easily they can purge it since it seems a tad more advanced then Arsenal Gear. And as for your big Jedi thing, sorry to say I was overwhelmed just by the stuff Pysco Mantis pulled off, this is out of my league."

Leia saw the Mortis Monolith fly out of their base and head to the sky before she had a look of clarity in her eyes. "It will work, I can feel it in the Force. The Force may have failed me from time to time, but I never have felt a stronger feeling in my life. Even if it can shatter multiple planets at once, Star-Killer base still can't compare to the power of the Force itself. We…just have to have faith the others will make sure the rest of the enemies won't be able to get in the Monolith's way."

Kyle looked at his own lightsaber before he saw all the war ships still fighting in the sky." Guess we will see if the Force is really with us once and for all eh?"

C3P0 looked at the Jedi before he glanced up." Don't worry Princess. Based on how much the Force has helped Master Luke in the past I would say the odds of us surviving this are sixty six percent to one! What…that's still more than half!"

Leia smirked as she patted her long time droid friend on the shoulder." Han would have been glad you at last figured out what humor is. Han…the odds of us winning are still too big to fail, it has to be!"

Leia reached out as hard as she could in the Force to her brother, and looked at the Mortis Monolith with hope.

---

As she did the Jedi were far from the only ones noticing the giant crystal now leaving the planet's atmosphere, some of the others were the ones that Jacen left on board the Anakin Solo Star Destroyer to oversee the fleet battle, Skull-Face and Zinyak.

The skull faced man and the ruler of the Zin saw their Rewloola class ships get blown up by the power of the GX-9901-DX Gundam Double X 's twin satellite cannons before suddenly the Mortis Monolith appeared in their view.

Zinyak saw the giant crystal float through space and shrug off energy blasts that incoming TIE fighters and others fired at it before he raised an eyebrow." So, the Jedi have their own pyramid like mobile armor thing? I see they had more variety then I thought, good for them I'll note that in the records, so people know after they are erased that they were not, entirely drab."

Skull-Face looked at the results of the scans on the Mortis Monolith that his systems had done before he frowned." The readings, that's what Colonel Solo was talking about! This must be the Jedi weapon they were hiding this whole time! So…Luke Skywalker is making his final play eh?"

Zinyak glanced at the reports on Star-Killer base and grinned." It seems even these dogma loving fools must realize its the curtain call now. Yes, time for the winners to show whose ideas are superior."

"Yes…let the world be remade to how it should be at last, where the words of the truth are spoken and all lies stamped out." Skull-Face hissed out." When I win this grand game, if this godly host keeps his promise with my wish I will exterminate the English language. With this, I'll rid the world of infestation. All men will breathe free again - reclaim their past, present, and future.

This is no ethnic cleanser. It is a "liberator," to free the world and send it back to Zero. Let the world be. Sans lingua franca, the world will be torn asunder.

And then, it shall be free. People will suffer, of course a phantom pain. The world will need a new common tongue. A language of nukes. My Metal Gears shall be the thread by which all countries across all planets are bound together, in equality.

No words will be needed. Every man will be forced to recognize his neighbor. People will swallow their pain. They will link lost hands. And the world, the universe will become one. This war is peace."

Skull-Face continued to rant on for a bit about his life story, getting more manic by the second, so manic that he failed to realize that Zinyak was just looking at him before rolling his." And some called me melodramatic, I love a good Macbeth line as much as any good tyrant but this is just chewing the scenery. Well, long as he can keep his skull on straight long enough to take down all the pests. Silly Jedi, working so hard to bet everything on a mystical relic when it's the, oh?"

Zinyak 's own chewing of the scenery was cut off as the bridge's alarms flared up, as Zinyak, Skull-Face, and the others saw the massive living machine Elsenova, along with all the other Rusalki that sided with Leia had started flying around the Mortis Monolith. Elsenova saw that the Anakin Solo was firing turbolasers and missiles at it before it took out all the incoming attacks with a large massive red energy blast from her own cannon. The Rusalki swiftly thrusted in the Star Destroyer's direction as all the weapons on her body appeared." The Mortis Monolith is a holy relic of Sudra, outsiders will not be allowed to tarnish it!"

Everyone onboard the bridge of the Anakin Solo cringed as the Rusalki unleashed a barrage of attacks that put the Star Destroyer's shields to its limit. Zinyak saw all of the warning alarms flaring up and winced." So, you have giant worm women machines as your trump card Jedi? Well played. Ah well, this was not quite in my contract so…I think I'll um...strategically move to a well…more strategic location."

As he and the Zin in the command bridge slowly moved for the exit Skull-Face glared at the Rusalki as he focused all the forces he could gather to the new targets." You Rusalki think you're so cryptic but you told us plenty. You've known the pain of ages. And even now you think, as any person would, that this can't be happening. Is it education? Morals, faith? Just an imprint of a lifetime of stories? Face to face with oblivion, which is where you are, and you still think that…GUH!"

Skull-Face was cut off as the Star Destroyer was bombed yet again, with such intensity that one of the terminals blew up in his face. As the skull face man grasped his now burning face Zinyak rolled his eyes." Oh, give it a rest already! Adding dramatic flair makes it fun but this battle's not going to be decided by who can scream the loudest, even if these new arrivals can scream rather loudly."

Zinyak cringed as he saw Elsenova prepare to ram the Star Destroyer, and ran out of the cockpit just as the metallic being tackled the ship. One of the many who saw the black Star-Destroyer get hit hard enough for it to bend was Luxaar.

The leader of the Ganglion saw the other Rusalki viciously attacking anything that was a threat to the Monolith before he grasped the controls of his Vita mech tightly." Damn it…. there is nothing truly holy that comes from wretched humans! They must have tricked theses living machines like they conned everyone else in the course of their despicable existence! No matter what they try, the unsure will be cleansed today!"

The froggy throated alien man quickly had the Vita fire off its Ether Megacannon to attempt to destroy the Mortis Monolith before the Rusalki could react. However, while he did fire before they could react, he quickly realized they were not the only ones protecting the Jedi's trump card as the Wing Zero suddenly burst in the direction of the blast and shoot it off course with a blast from its own Twin-Buster Rifle.

Heero quickly aimed for the Vita before uttering a cold,"Humans may have a bloody legacy, but they, we are a race that still has room to grow. Get in the way, and you're just a target to be eliminated."

Luxxar saw the Wing Zero fire at him before he had his Skull move out of the massive energy beam. As the other Gundam's closed in on him he cried out," I'm not a mere target you filthy apes, I'm welding the divine vessel and you will die respecting its power!"

Luxxar had his mecha form a large energy sword before he swung it at the Wing Zero. Heero parried it with his mobile suit's own beam saber but his enemy's larger sword hit him hard enough to knock him back, but before Luxxar could try and finish him off he was hit back by a barrage of projectiles unleashed by the Destiny Gundam, the Gundam Leopard Destroy and the MSAM-033 Gundam G-Arcane, causing the frog like alien to roar out,"Enough…your toys are nothing compared to true power! Let me show you what superior power truly is!"

Luxxar forced his mecha to unleash all the power it could, causing it to transform. Its appearance shifted to a more slender, skinnier form. Because of it being made of dark matter, it's outer color became purple with a soft flowing/aura motion within its skin. Its armor is now shed and is moved to the back; it's fingers, body, and flight boosters in the previous form shifted to form wings that are attached directly to the mech.

Luxxar quickly showed off just what the Vita's new form could do as it had lasers blast out from its knees. Luxxar saw the Leopard Destroy get its right arm get blown off before he chuckled as everyone opened fire, only for his wings to form independently controlled energy barriers to block every shot." It's useless, the Vita has the power to neutralize every one of your weapons!"

Before he could attack more the Star Fox team suddenly flew in to help the Gundam's and spread out before Fox and his long-time teammates barraged the Vita with hyper lasers blasts. Fox saw the shields on his target block the lasers, before he looked at the Gundam 's around him, and what weapons they had before he grinned. "He barks as much as Wolf and his boys did. Ugh, no matter how heavily armed a craft is it's not going to do much if the pilot can't make use of them! Falco, go with plan B!"

Fox had his Arwing do a somersault to avoid an incoming energy blast before he fired a Smart Bomb at the Vita as the other Star Fox pilots did the same. The bombs came from all directions and hit the Vita dead on, releasing a powerful explosion, albeit one that the Vita's shields were able to endure.

While Luxxar moved around a bit in the cockpit from the impact, he just laughed as he saw the smoke around him from the bombs."Tsc…typical humans, all you can do is bark and then run away! You can't run if I just use the Vita to nuke this entire quadrant of, huh?"

The froggy member of the First Order nearly choked as he saw the radar flare up, and see that the Destiny Gundam was suddenly above him. The pilot of the Vita cursed as he quickly fired at the white mobile suit, and while he thought he hit his target, the Destiny Gundam suddenly turned transparent and vanished. Luxxar realized to late that he struck a after image caused by the Destiny Gundam's light scatter Mirage Colloid effect.

Just as he realized what happened, the Destiny Gundam's pilot Shin had his mobile suit charge right at him with his MMI-714 "Arondight" anti-ship sword. Luxxard quickly intercepted the sword strike with his own, but as the two blades collided Shin was close enough to grasp the Vita's head with his free hand.

While Luxxard first thought it was a futile gesture, he learned the hard way that was not the case as Shin had the MMI-X340 "Palma Fiocina" beam cannon, mounted on that palm to ignite, releasing a blast right in the Vita's face.

The blast did not completely destroy the mech's head but it did destroy much of its camera systems. Luxxard cursed as he scrambled to see all he could, only to see the Destiny Gundam take out one of his mobile shields by quickly throwing its RQM60F "Flash-Edge " beam boomerang before he roared out," Damn you humans, your sneaky tricks won't let you elude fate! You can only delay your destiny! You can't, huh? NO!"

The leader of the Ganglion felt a chill down his spine as he saw a flash of light, and swerved around to see that for all that Shin did, it was really just to distract him so that Heero could fire another shot from the Twin-Buster Rifle before his target could notice.

For good measure Shin had the Destiny Gundam fire at the last of the Vita's moving shields with his M2000GX high-energy long-range beam cannon to blast Luxard, and while his shield automatically blocked the Destiny Gundam's beam attack, this opened him up to get hit by the far stronger energy beam the Wing Zero unleashed. Luxard saw his mecha's units failed he roared out a delirious," NO! YOU, YOU MISERABLE HUMANS! How could you be their legacy?! Such a primitive people. BARBARIC! And the stories would have us bow down before you? NEVER! I'll never, GUH!"

Shin was one of the many relived to see the Vita at last blow up and its blowhard leader be silenced before he chuckled." Never say never bastard! Humans have overcome a lot, and you're sure as hell were not going to be the one to be the end of the line for us!"

Heero made sure there was nothing left from the Vita before he nodded."Target eliminated. Good job sticking to the Zero system's plans everyone. Let's take out the rest so we can take out the enemy base."

The others nodded, and saw a massive flash of purple light go by, seeing it came from the kingly mecha Seiouki the Insa. Everyone quickly moved at full speed as they saw the Insa was firing barrages of purple lasers in every direction from the crown like top armor before its pilot Uther seethed out,"Damn you rouge Gundam's! Call us devils all you want, but I'm fighting for the sake of my people! No matter how much I must taint my heart in darkness, there is no price too high for the survival of the Insalaum people!"

Uther tried to then cleave through the Zeta Gundam with his plasma ax, but just as the Insa looked like it was about to cleave through the smaller mobile suit, till he was repelled by blasts from the 00 Qan and the other Celestial Being Gundams. Uther saw Setsuna charging at him before the Gundam pilot yelled out," Your intentions may be noble, but your ambitions are still twisted!"

"That's just human nature boy! A mere war dog has no right to lecture a ruler! You will pay for standing in the way of a King's resolve!"

Uther had the crown like armament shine with energy, before it suddenly turned rightward, right at the 00 Qan. The crown then unleashed a surge of energy that paralyzed the Gundam.

Setsuna saw his comrades get out of the way and struggled to find a way to break his mobile suit free."King of Insalaum…you think you're doing what's your right, but push such twisted resolve to hard and you will break not just yourself but what you're going to protect! We been fighting not just to protect what's dear to us, but change the twistedness of humanity!"

"Fancy words boy, but such pretty platitudes crumble under the weight of reality just like your fancy Gundam will fold to my power!"

Uther had each point of the crown have energy that came together before unleashing a massive energy blast. For a moment the King of Insalaum thought he succeeded in vaporizing his target. But while he swiftly prepared to blast the other Lylat forces, Setsuna showed he was far from space dust as he reformed after using the quantization ability, and had his GN Sword bits swarm at Uther from all directions."

You're not wrong…how you see reality is how it's been for some time, maybe even how it's been for most of human, if not all mortal history. But that to can change, we will change the future, the future of human potential itself! Don't just take my words, but feel the strength of our resolve! Trans-Am!"

Setsuna quickly had his GN Sword Bits combined to form his Buster Sword. As his Gundam turned red he unleashed a massive purple energy slash. Uther saw an energy slash three times the size of his mecha and grit his teeth."Enough! I'll show you the true wrath of the Seiouki the Insa Gundam!"

Uther had his machine glow with bright green energy before he suddenly detached the blade part of his ax from the rest, and revealed a small spike of energy. The moment Uther swung with the green blade exploded with energy, becoming an slash that's size matched the incoming energy blade from the 00 Qan, and was able to keep the blade back as it parried the strike.

As the two massive energy blades got into a dead lock Uther looked at his radar to see that one of his elite royal guards, Magriette Pistell just got her mecha the Parnneil got her left arm cut off by the " Wings of Light" energy wings formed by the V2 Assault Buster Gundam and its pilot Uso Ewin, while his male elite guard Wayne Reptail just got his mecha 's the" Sapphire" head cut off by the muramasa blaster sword belonging to the Crossbone Gundam X3 and its pilot, Tobia Arronax.

Meanwhile another monitor showed him that his other royal guard Marylin just got bombarded by the omnidirectional lasers being unleashed by the Gundam G-Self Perfect Pack, and also saw the head of his royal knights, Gerard Garce Bantail in the" Diamond" just have its beam diamond lance be destroyed by Zechs making use of all of the abilities the Tallgeese III before he glared at his own attacker."Damn hypocrites have no right to lecture me! All your talk and you're just seeing your ideals realized with force, like every other winner in history! At least I'm honest about being a murderer to get what it takes, the people of Insalaum prefer the honest savior to the fraud!"

Setsuna saw that Uther was unleashing enough power to start pushing his Gundam's beam saber back before he steeled himself." No…it's not just a lie! We are serious about making a true effort to unlock the future for everyone! But if it's too hard to explain in the middle of a battle, then feel my thoughts! No matter how hard it takes we will open a dialogue for true peace! Trans-Am Burst! "

The 00 Qan swiftly unleashed more purified GN particles around the entire area around him and his opponent, generation of a quantum space around the suit that linked the consciousness of people in the affected area.

Uther was shocked by the sudden surge of thoughts, but as the full effect of the Trans-Am Burst took effect and he felt Setsuna's will pour into him he gulped." What…this is some sort of joke? This has to be, for the sake of my people, I must not give in to lies, no matter how nice they, AHH!"

Uther 's newly conflicted thoughts allowed Setsuna to overpower the Seiouki the Insa's beam saber. The member of Celestial Being was able to shatter his opponent's weapon and leave a deep cut across the royal mecha's chest. While Uther was still able to fight, he was paralyzed not because his machine was, but because of his now shattered will.

He looked at the 00 Qan, and looked at his allies still fighting off the forces loyal to Jacen, and to Kylo Ren before he yelled in outrage." This has to be an illusion, a trick! What your attempting to do, could never work!"

"It may have never worked so far in history, but we have faith in the future we are trying to shape. With the power and will of Ben Auro and Lacus Raystar, we will reform, and evolve what it means to be human!"

The Gundam pilot was going to say more, but before he could he saw a barrage of Turbo Lasers coming his way, saw it came from the Finalizer Star Destroyer and swiftly changed acted to protect himself.

As Uther was still to conflicted to move, Full Frontal saw this, and also saw the Mortis Monolith moving in the direction of Star-Killer base before he sneered." Uther really is naïve if he lets his duty as a King falter merely because of the light of possibility. Despite the hopes of the weak willed, even such sweet light can't cause people to truly reform. Possibility, can be a poison that drives entire nations, entire populations into hysteria.

One man can't be the voice for all of humanity unless he becomes a vessel, one not corrupted by foolish fantasies! Enough, I knew I would not rely on lesser vessels to get the job done, tell Zinnerman to launch the Neo-Zeong now and program it to begin docking preparations! It's time for the true New-Types to grasp their destiny!"

The masked man tried to fire on the Mortis Monolith with his Sinanju 's bazooka. However, the projectile was quickly shot away by Amuro, and as Full Frontal saw him a funnel quickly blasted and destroyed his bazooka.

The ace Gundam pilot swiftly charged at the clone of his rival while crying out,"You think you're so far above others when you just shut off all your emotions! I won't allow someone so consumed by hate shape the future!"

Amuro once more attempted to finish his enemy off, only to yet again have that attempt be prevented as Marida fired at him with all the guns the Kshatriya had." You don't understand anything Gundam! The new future that he seeks to create is one where I'll, huh? NO!"

Mardia saw her radar was detecting a sudden spike of energy heading her way, but did not have time to react properly. She only had enough time to see a massive sphere of energy head her way, melt all of her machine's funnels in its path and collide right in to her mobile suit, causing a massive molten hole to quickly form in the mobile suit.

As the Kshatria and its pilot exploded the one who fired, Riddhe, still berserk do to not being able to handle the Banshee Noir's power, did not even seem to notice he killed the female pilot as he fired around widely." That's what you get you damn traitor, that's what you get for chucking me! All you cursed Newtypes…it's because of all your damn feelings that I had to suffer! I have to destroy you all so that it stops, so I can be at peace at last!"

Amuro tensed as he saw his former squad mate getting even more mentally unstable, as Banagher flew up to Riddhe in the Unicorn Gundam."Wake up already damn it! You really want to have come this far only to destroy yourself with your own rage!"

Angelo suddenly flew above the two horned Gundam's before his Rozen Zulu started to glow." Think you can dismiss us so casually that your more afraid of dying by your own power? Damn Newtypes, even when enraged you're not unstoppable, we have the power to even break your kind! Deploy psycho-jammers now!"

The purple mobile suit suddenly unleashed a barrage of purple funnels to surround the nearby Gundams, and all unleashed blue wires that formed an energy prism. Just as Banagher tried to fire on Angelo, suddenly his controls jammed as he felt energy crackle around his machine and blurted out," The psycommu is being jammed? No!"

Amuro saw both the Unicorn and Banshee Norn turn back to their normal states, and saw his own funnels turn off before he cringed." Damn it, this guy's funnel like projectiles must be emitting some jamming signals. Even the psyco-waves that control the psycommu are a type of wave, if they are slammed into by even more powerful waves. They are learning…which means we have to learn faster!"

Angelo snarled as he had his wired claw slam into the Hi-Nu Gundam." It's too late, you Gundam pilots have been exposed as the frauds you are! Damn you all, your kind has been standing in the way of the captain for far too long! Your all rabbling about peace, when you don't deserve it! Die!"

Banagher saw the Rozen Zulu fire at him and blocked the blast with his shield before screaming out," No…we do have the right, our will to live is enough! No matter how driven Full Frontal is, or how evolved a man he really is, no one man has the right to decide the future! We will decide the future we want, ourselves!"

The Unicorn Gundam suddenly got a surge of power as its pilot unlocked even more of his Newtype power. The mobile suits NT-D System went to full power and the Unicorn Gundam transformed once more back into its Destroy Mode, this time glowing green.

Angelo saw the previously horned mobile suits shields suddenly glow and float on their own before he raised an eyebrow." The hell is going on? Did one of the other Gundam's do some sort of, huh? No!"

Full Frontal's right winged man felt a chill down his spine as the Unicorn's shields suddenly moved like they were ships in their own right, and slammed into the Rozen Zulu's psyco jammer funnels, freeing the Hi-Nu and the Banshee as well. Amuro saw the now green Unicorn Gundam float above him before he chuckled."Your new type powers have already evolved past my own Banagher. Well done, you really are an example of the man of tomorrow."

Angelo realized the Unicorn's shields were firing at him independently before he punched his own cockpit."What kind of shields can do this? Damn you, no matter your tricks, you won't stop me! I won't fail him!"

The Rozen Zulu fired at the Unicorn, but all of his attacks were blocked as the glowing green mobile suit charged right for him. As the Unicorn got closer images of all the times Full Frontal flashed across his mind before he grit his teeth." I have to prove, I'm worthy of being part of the captain's new world! I have to, AHH!"

Angelo had become so frenzied that as he fired a triple mega particle blast at the Unicorn, he was to unfocused to see that as he deflected the blast with his shield, it bounced into the other shield flying below the Rozen Zulu, and then got bounced right into him.

Angelo cried out in outrage as the Rozen Zulu was shredded by its own attack, and as Amuro saw his own Gundam's systems fully restore before he took a deep sigh." Well, that was close but at least things have turned around, mostly. What about you Riddhe? How are you feeling? Can you hear me?"

To his relief, the Banshee just looked normal as its pilot muttered." I am ok commander Amuro, just feeling, dizzy. Sorry about before, I guess, I was not as under control as I thought."

"Heh…its ok kid, everyone thinks they are ready for fighting for their life till it happens. Just be glad you were calmed down before something tragic happened, at least that guy's jamming attack had some positive results eh? Good work Banagher, just don't get cocky. Let's find were Full Frontal is hiding before it's too late."

"I'm not hiding Amuro Ray…I'm just setting the stage, for the climax of this tiresome game!"

The first Gundam pilot saw a warning sigh before the disabled First-Order Star-Destroyer to his right glowed, and a massive yellow energy blast erupted out. The three Gundam's just managed to evade the blast in time, and from the wreckage of the Star-Destroyer emerged a massive red legless red mobile armor with the dimensions of overall height one hundred and sixteen meters; head height eighty meters; overall width fifty eight meters.

Amuro saw the Sinanju fly into the top of this mobile armor to form the head before he braced himself." You really want to act like your Char? Then don't try to just weld bigger machines then him and act like you give a damn about those who follow you!"

The entire massive red machine suddenly started to glow before Full Frontal chuckled darkly." I do truly care about the people Amuro Ray, I just want to give them a future that's realistic. And with this Neo Zeong as my sword I will at last give humanity the society that befits the true shape of their hearts!"

Amuro saw the Neo-Zeong unleash a barrage of yellow energy blasts from its fingers and tried to open fire, only to see his attacks not even phase the massive red mobile armor before he swore." Damn it, even at his most crazed the real Char, despite all he lived through did not become a nihilist bastard like you!"

"Heh…more like I'm the reflection of Char Aznable, no, of Casval Rem Deikun's true desire! He wore mask's to con everyone, even himself, but his ultimate purpose, my purpose, was to guide humanity! Mortals crave leaders, vessels to guide them, because far too many of them are far too passive, too weak to do anything but be part of the heard!

They think they crave the utopian understanding fantasy all you Newtype's babble about, but what you really want is to be free of the burden of others! That is why I'll win this Battle-World, and grant the people their ultimate wish!"

Banagher aimed the Unicorn Gundam's beam magnum at the Neo-Zeong before he looked determined."Damn it, enough already! It does not matter what drove you crazy or if you were just born that way Full Frontal, but you won't decide our future!"

A newly focused Riddhe had the Banshee Noir enter its own Destroy mode before pointing at the masked man's mobile armor." That's right, we will break the curse of the ambitions of demented men like you here and now, once and for all! Let's do this, Banagher, the light is not coming only for us!"

Both Unicorn type Gundam's fired their Beam Magnums at the part of the Neo-Zeong that had Full Frontal's mobile suit, and the sight just caused the clone of Char to snicker." Light that emanates from people, those who hold this warmth after all, it's all for nothing."

The commander swiftly had the Neo-Zeong reveal its Four I-field generators which had enough power to defuse the incoming projectiles.

He swiftly counterattacked by firing all four of the mega particle cannons on its shoulders to try and vaporize the Gundam trio in his sight with sheer power. Before the blast could reach them, energy blasts from above rained down to intercept his own attacks at a level of power strong enough to cancel them out.

Full Frontal saw that the attacks came from the Twin-Buster rifles of the Wing Zero, along with the Tallgeese III, the Raphael Gundam and some of the others before suddenly in a flash energy blasts rained down from behind him, and struck some of the Neo-Zeong's engines.

Full Frontal saw the attacks came from the Zabanya Gundam before Lockon threw out."Think you're a tough guy just because you have all those guns? Please, it just makes you an easy target! Lock on, and fire!"

As the ace sniper of the Celestial Being unit fired down all the missiles coming his way his teammate Allelujah flew up and laughed as he barraged his target with his GN Scissors." This guy likes to talk big, but its time he learns what a real super soldier can do!"

Full Frontal saw Gundam's attack him from all directions before he merely closed his eyes." So…the Gundam's oppose me do they? Me, the vessel filled with the collective will of the masses?"

"Enough!" Amuro snapped out," Humans can't be vessels! You either have to wake up or die in your delusion!"

"Heh…I'll except your challenge Gundam's…but don't think I did not come prepared to finish you once and for all!"

Before everyone could close in suddenly components formed out of the mobile armor that quickly came together to form a giant golden ring around it. At once the ring started to glow, and Setsuna saw the entire area around Full-Frontal start to ripple before he once more had his mobile suit enter its Trans-Am state." Is he, charging up some sort of even more powerful attack? The entire area around him is rippling and the disturbance is growing larger by the second. Whatever it is, it will cease when I eliminate the target! Prepare to, huh? No!"

Setsuna prepared to attempt to slash the Neo-Zeong in half with his Buster-Sword maneuver, but as he did his sword suddenly started to crackle with energy, before it exploded. Lockon saw all of the weapons on the 00 Qan exploded before he cursed." The hell happened? Far as I could tell nothing hit him and nothing else came out of that red eye sore! Is he, huh? No!"

Lockon felt a surge of dread as all of the Zabanya's weapons also exploded. Tiera quickly scanned the area before he widened his eyes." No…the scans are indicating that the ring is not a beam weapon but, some sort of psycho-shards that create a psycho field that causes any energy source in its range to be scrambled! He…he can cause every last one of our weapons to explode and I don't know how to counter act it!"

Amuro saw his own funnels and beam saber explode, and saw everything on both the Unicorn and Banshee Noir explode despite their resistance before he saw Full Frontal gladly open fire on the Gundam's as they were sabotaged." Damn it, his mobile armor is a damn anti mobile suite weapon? No, even this won't be enough!"

"That will be your last boast if I have anything to say about it, Amuro Ray!"

The clone of his arch rival declared as he fired a beam from the Neo-Zeong's finger to vaporize the lower half of the Hi-Nu Gundam." You Gundam's thought you were untouchable, and I'm all too happy to make your powers be your bane! Your dramatic lights of rage will consume you, and you will at last learn your place!"

Full Frontal saw the Mortis Monolith nearly get past all the battle ships before he frowned, and locked every weapon he had at the Force imbued object." Ah…is this the trump card that the Jedi were hiding so badly?

Well in this unstable merged world, I won't leave anything to chance. Jacen, Relius and the others will be able to secure Star-Killer Base without reliance on mystical tickets! You who relied on your Newtype and Jedi ideas, fall in to total despair as I erase your hope."

The Neo-Zeong unleashed another volley of missiles as the first wave of his bombardment, but before they could home in on the Mortis Monolith the Barbatos Lupus Rex Gundam flew in and smashed the missiles back at their sender with its massive ultra-large pile bunker mace. As Full Frontal looked shocked at the tailed Gundam still moving its pilot Mikazuk uttered a detached,"You talk as much as both chocolate mans did. Shut up and die already."

Full Frontal quickly saw his gear was still working before he scanned the tailed Gundam again. "This Gundam is not effected? It does seem to not have any beam powered weaponry, but to shrug off the psycho field like that would indicate the reactor is a different beast entirely. Oh well, just means your eager for a painful death."

The Neo-Zeong fired a barrage of energy blasts from its fingers, and while they hit the Barbatos Lupus Rex, he was shocked to see the Gundam be hint, only for the beams to mostly defuse. Mikazuk charged right through the incoming beams and smashed the Neo-Zeong's left arm hard enough to make the entire mobile armor stagger. As more missiles prepared to fire Mikazuk had his tail suddenly extend and jab the projectile before it could launch, causing it to explode.

The cold Gundam pilot wasted no time lunging up like a beast to smash the damaged section to rip it off." My type of Gundam was made to be as resistant as possible to beam weaponry. Your fancy tricks can't save you."

Full Frontal saw the wild Gundam keep moving around the mobile armor before he saw him throw part of his right arm to part of his golden ring. As he saw part of it be damaged he grimaced." You and your Gundam are indeed suited to be a true berserker boy. However, my grand ambition won't be foiled by the ideals of a simpleton dog!"

The masked man tried to grasp the Barbatos by having its armor segments transform to smaller hands to try and constrain the tailed Gundam. However, his target kept thrashing around while the pilot threw out," Ideals? I don't think that far ahead. My entire life, it's just one step after the other staying alive, and doing whatever it took to live. I just want to live, any idea that has a problem with that is just an obstacle to rip apart."

Full-Frontal frowned as he saw his target use its tail to get into one of the hands joints and rip it apart before he had the Neo-Zeong grasp the Barbatos as hard as he could to try and crush it." Ah yes, the simple will to live, the pulse that's caused warfare across human history.

This will, is a flaw that must be corrected. Its time, that those without purpose no longer stand in the way of the people for their primal, selfish desires. No matter how deep rooted your resistance, you will be quelled boy! Enough, time to end this once and for."

Full Frontal was cut off as an explosion suddenly erupted from the back of the Neo-Zeong. The masked man saw his ring was damaged, and then saw that it came from some StealthX ships, even though his radar did not show anything. The pilot of the black X-Wing like ship quickly swerved around before its pilot, Wedge uttered," Don't think you got us all pinned down you punk!

We may not have things as advanced as theses mobile suits, but I won't let anyone diss the Rouge and Wrath Squadron's! Glad Luke and Corrin helped us customize some Shadow Bombs that could be used by non-Force Users. Maybe we can't take down the big guys, but we can clear the path so that the others can get to them! Bombard this guy to the point where he can't get a shot off!"

The rest of Wedge's squad complied, and bombarded the Neo-Zeong from all directions, making use of their ship's stealth functions to destroy the Psyco-Shard Ring before it could lock onto them as well. Fox had the rest of the Star-Fox team fly at the mobile armor as well before he reentered all range mode."Slippy, any weak points on the boggy?"

"Enemy shields analyzed!" The amphibian pilot retorted." It's risky, but if we strike these guys big guns right before they fire we could land some serious damage!"

"That's all?" Falco asked brashly." Can't be as risky as throwing a Smart Bomb in Andross's mouth eh Fox?"

Fox chuckled before he had the thrusters flare up." Got that right Falco. All right, you and Krystal give me cover while I close in!"

As his teammates nodded ROB cut in with,"The Great Fox has repaired enough of its damage to provide cover fire."

The squad of Arwings dived at the mobile armor, and after doing a few somersaults and barrel rolls to evade fire Fox saw the right most mega particle cannon on the Neo-Zeong prepare to fire, and unleashed his Smart Bomb. While he got his left wing blasted as he bounced around his seat he saw his effort paid off as the entire section of the mobile armor was damaged. The mobile armor tried to fire but the Great Fox fired from a distance, its high powered yellow energy laser beams it its target's right side, causing enough of a blast to knock the Neo-Zeong back.

Full Frontal saw all the other Gundam's recovering before he narrowed his eyes."The cycle is repeating itself. Nothing will change if it cannot be contained. People will struggle all they like, but nothing will change Gundams! Hope and possibility are nothing but fleeting dreams glimpsed at the doorstop to absolute nothingness.

Mere illusions that offer no comfort. They lead people astray and create meaningless conflict. Newtypes are the ones that should realize this truth most of all, yet they keep the myth that merely exists and then fades away. This light of hope, gather as much as you want it will change nothing! I'll erase the light from existence itself at last, so that the shackles of human delusions can end at last, so that my duty can be complete!"

The Neo-Zeong started to glow as everyone saw energy surge into the mobile armor's central cannon before Amuro got his Gundam to recover." Damn it Full Frontal, don't expect us to feel sorry for you when you chose this genocidal duty for yourself! Despite the damage hope has caused, getting rid of that would be to get rid of what it means to live! I, no, we all have hope for the future of the human race and we won't let you destroy it!"

"A pity that since hope's all you have left after I shattered all your weapons Amuro Ray! Will is useless without the power to make it reality, so embrace the reality that is my particle cannon eradicating all your wills out of existence!"

Kamille Bidan grit his teeth before he had the Zeta Gundam fly right for his enemy." Your wrong, we have something left, are will! We have the power to convert are thoughts into energy, and with the Bio-Sensor I'll make sure it's enough to take you down!"

Kamille had the Zeta Gundam transform into its Waverider mode and flew right for the Neo-Zeong. Full Frontal saw his target evade his energy blasts before he snickered." Another one of your Newtype contraptions? Tsc…even if your gadget can transfer your emotions into power that's not enough to stop me. At last, become stardust Gundams!"

The Neo-Zeong prepared to fire, but Kamile slammed the Zeta Gundam right into the chest cannon before it could fire. While at first the Zeta-Gundam looked like it was about to be blown away Amuro charged forward to push the Zeta Gundam back." Kamille's right Full Frontal, Newtypes have more than one way to fight!"

Setsuna then flew up as well before he grasped his controls tightly." That's right, everyone, unite your desire with Kamile! I have enough energy left for one last Trans Am burst!"

Since it was not a weapon the Trans-Am burst function endured the Psyco Field, and after releasing GN particles around his comrades it combined with the Bio-Sensor and the psychoframe's to transmit the energy of all the Gundams and other vehicles into power, enough power for Full Frontal to see the Zeta Gundam push the beam back into where it came. The masked man had his ace twitch before he growled out," No…something as erratic as the power flowing through the human body, will not stop me!"

Full Frontal attempted to have his machine smash the Zeta Gundam with everything he could throw at him, only for the Barbatos, and the other Gundam's with physical weapons like the Gundam Deathscythe Hell and the Gundam Sandrock Custom slam into it. As the energy was launched all the way back into the cannon the pilot of the Death Scythe Hell, Duo Maxwell just chuckled." Too bad smartass, the God of Death has laid down the law, you're out of here!"

Full Frontal saw his own energy beam rip back into the Neo-Zeong, and cause a massive chain reaction before he yelled out," No….I am the vessel of the people! Your wills…mean nothing! I, huh? No!"

The masked man cringed as he saw a new Gundam fly right for him, the close ranged GF13-017NJII mobile fighter type Burning God Gundam. Its pilot, ace fighter Domon Kasshu raced right for the Neo Zeong while yelling out," Sorry for the wait, lot of hostiles got in the way but now it's time to end this! You think you can handle our passion creep? Then take this hand of mine that's burning red, that's crying out to size victory! Erupting, Burning, Finger!"

The Burning God Gundam had its right-hand surge with energy before it punched the mobile armor right in its chest. The chain reaction caused the energy around the Neo-Zeong to back fire even more before its pilot yelled out a frantic,"NO! A vessel can't, "

"It can and it will! Because you may be a vessel but I'm the King of Hearts! What kind of name is Full Frontal anyway? Rain thought you were a porn star or something. Ah well anyway, Heat End!"

"It' beyond a brute like yours understanding! The name is symbolism because I am the true, UGH!"

Domon unleashed a final surge of power, causing explosions to break out all over his target's mech.

The clone of the man with the title of the Red Comet gave took a breath for one more rant, but was cut off as part of the chain reaction caused the control stick to burst up and impale him in the throat, causing him to choke out blood for a few seconds before his mobile armor exploded.

As everyone saw the Neo-Zeong explode, and make sure that nothing came out of it Amuro saw the clone of his arch rival was indeed dead before he sighed." Full-Frontal, you had Char's shrewdness and stubbornness, but not his heart. I'll debate with Char just what makes him him, after we get out of this. What's the situation? Any more super weapons coming out of the enemy fleets?"

Fox swerved around and saw that only the Finalizer and a few other Star Destroyer's were still being aggressive before he saw the Mortis Monolith suddenly fly at a faster rate in the direction of Star-Killer Base before he sighed." Seems like we broke the worst of them Amuro. Looks like it's up to the others now. After how many times we, huh?"

Everyone saw the star that was the Beyonder's castle suddenly give off energy before Slippy winced."It's not good Fox, the enemy base is looking like it's about to fire! Even if we can go to hyperspace, in this fractured reality there is no place to run to and we need the others to open the portal!"

"Well…if there is no place to run or hide, then the only thing left is to fight! As damaged as we are, lets help the others as best as we can! Get ready to make a break for the Star-Killer Base everyone!"

"Don't worry Fox, I'm with you to the end!" Fox's fiancé Krystal retorted as she prepared her craft. Wedge checked on the status of his own forces before he had his Stealth X's S-foils close in." Roger Fox. Luke's busted so many superweapons at this point, there is no reason for him to break tradition now! Still, about time I earn one of those medals eh boys?"

Amuro nodded as he looked at the state of the other Gundams." I know the others can pull it off, just hope they can do it fast since we have to regroup. Give them hell guys."

---

Speaking of fast, as the joint Lylat and Galactic Alliance forces did all they could to make their way to the Star-Killer base, even the speediest of the hero's already inside the planet sized weapon were finding themselves in a bind due to the extent of the enemy's cruelty.

From where we last left them Sonic was trying to out run Bervon's attacks while also avoiding the assault from the enslaved Milla. The blue hedgehog sidestepped out of an energy blast only to see a missile heading his way, only for Blaze to knock the projectile back with a kick.

He saw how Brevon was firing before he chuckled." I busted way bigger bots but I admit this guy has some killer aim, can't waste one move. Too bad for you, I don't waste one step when I'm running seriously!"

Sonic ran up the wall and spun around a pillar to swiftly unleash a sonic spin dash. However, while his aim was true, the mutated Milla got in the way to take the blow. Sonic winced as she went crashing to the ground, and in that hesitation, even as she screamed in pain she obeyed her master's orders and unleashed a green energy blast from her tail to hit Sonic.

Lilac saw the blue hedgehog go flying before she looked at her friend with agony."Fight it Milla! That creep does not own you! Whatever he's done to you I'll break you free from it!"

The human dragon hybrid ran up to her friend and frantically looked for some sort of contraption on the now scorpion like creature. Only to be smashed by her tail. As Carol caught her Brevon snickered from inside his craft." This is no simple device girl, I rewrite her very DNA to be loyal to me! Even if a part of her hates herself, she will do whatever I ask, from dying to me to killing her friends without hesitation! As you die, know I don't make false steps either hedgehog! So, chose, kill your own precious friend or die!"

Milla prepared to attack Carol and Lilac before Sliver floated in front of them and used his psychic powers to immobilize her. Carol saw Spade and some of the others look like they were going to go for the kill before she cried out,"Stop it! She's innocent you can't kill her!"

Sliver winced before he closed his eyes." I don't want to see any innocents suffer, but if we don't do something soon, none of us have a future!"

Brevon laughed coldly as his craft flied above everyone."That's the problem with heroism, it's quite impractical! Such antics sound so sweet at times but they can't change one real thing of substance!"

As Lilac look torn, Toque suddenly got in front of her and Sliver before grasping the Axiom Disruptor. "Hope may not be able to change things, but science can! I may not have been the one to build the Axiom Disruptor, but from what I seen of Athetos's data, it was primary used to realter corrupt data and restore it to normal! This might not have been what I had in mind, but if Milla was mutated, this can realter her DNA to restore her to her normal state! Just glad I got a blood sample from when she was injured earlier!"

Lilac saw how determined her duck like comrade was before she gulped." Wait…have you even tried this before?"

"Heh…to be honest in terms of live tests not really." Torque retorted." However, the data showed it can work in theory. Sorry, but risky as it is do you have any better ideas?"

"No…just don't screw up!"

Torque nodded and fired the Axiom Disruptor at his mutated friend. As waves of red erratic energy shot into the three-eyed scorpion creature at first it merely caused Milla to roar in pain. However just as everyone wondered if the effort was a dud, when suddenly her entire body glowed red. As some of the light started to get brighter Lilac started to see her friend start to shrink before she dared to get hopeful." It, it just might work Torque! Prove you're not just a hack!"

Her green friend attempted to not let the diss mess with his focus and kept up the beam. While it looked like the Axiom Disruptor was working, Brevon showed he was not going to just be patient as he swerved his craft around and locked on to everyone in the area." Bah…you can franticly grasp any relic you can get your hands on but you're still the same weaklings! Just die!"

Brevon prepared to open fire when Tails, who had been flying above his craft revealed himself by dropping a small EMP bomb to hit the dropship, and scramble its sensors. As Brevon saw Tails fly by the two-tailed fox gave this enemy the stink eye." We know how to handle things better than you think jerk!"

Blaze swiftly charged at Brevon to attack his craft with a blazing kick that left a strong enough impact to knock his craft off course. As he readjusted the controls he saw Sonic standing in front of him before the hero of Mobius wagged his finger.

The silent insult caused Brevon to have his eye twitch and fire at him, but as the laser came out he saw he only hit a after image, before Sonic suddenly did a lightspeed dash to hit Brevon right before his energy cannon could fire, causing it to explode.

As Brevon found his craft spiraling out of control he suddenly saw Lilac charging for him, before the former member of the Red Scarfs yelled out a furious,"Screw you Brevon I had it with you! No matter how many jerks form other world work with you, and no matter how cruel you get I will never forgive you for attacking my world and hurting my friends! Dragon Cyclone!"

Lliac unleashed her most powerful move to strike Brevon's craft head on, with enough force to smash it and send it crashing into the wall. Sonic landed besides her and saw how big a crash her blow caused before he chuckled." Nice moves Lilac, you got a killer serve!"

"What oh this? It's nothing." The women uttered while trying not to look bashful." I just, had to get my moves down pat to make sure I was strong enough to protect Carol and all that."

"Heh…its cool I get it girl. I had really big incentive to get my spindash down pat to make sure I could keep Tails and all my other pals from being turned into robots because of old Eggman. You remind me of, eh, man I almost told an old timer joke! Anyway…just saying this Brevon guy is like all the other guys who feel smug because they got a big scary looking gun and we broke it! Glad we shut him down before the deadline."

"Just, hope the damage he caused is not irreversible." Lilac muttered as she glanced back at her friends. Her dread turned to joy as she saw Torque's hopes were justified, as while Milla resisted, despite getting his beak knocked off the Axiom Disrupter succeeded in turning her back to normal. Sonic grinned before he crossed his arms." Seems like your pal was on the ball girl! All that build up and it was as lame as stunt as when those lame Deadly Six acted like Tails really was roboticized forever!"

Tails landed near Sonic before he rolled his eyes." Sonic I really was almost roboticized forever if not for a last second thing I did and the power of the Chaos Emeralds!"

"That's not how I remember it Tails but whatever, point is another bad guys' plans have gone s, huh? Eh…hold that thought."

Everyone heard an explosion, and while the group hoped it was Brevon's ship blowing up, that was partly true, only for Brevon to emerge with a red humanoid battle mech. Sonic saw a new gun being pointed at him before he rolled his eyes." Man does not have robot in his name but seems to love having back up robots as much as him!"

"Your machines won't save you from the dragon you unleashed!" Lilac shouted out." I will never forgive you for what you did to Milla! I will destroy everything you throw at me!"

"I have no use for forgiveness, especially for someone who puts my home world at risk!" Brevon cried out as he pointed his mecha's saber at the two speedy heroes." Call me the villain all you like but I'm doing this to ensure the survival of my people! Your people may be the sacrifices but that's just the cost of prosperity!"

"Eggman always said if I just caved everyone would prosper to dude." Sonic threw out sorely." But I was so stubborn I got him to cave! Well, guess a few other things helped but the main thing dude? You can say you're in the right all you want but I seen enough to know who's right and who's wrong Brevon, and your hardcore wrong so I'm shutting you down!"

Sonic unleashed another sonic spindash, only for Brevon to show off one of his mecha's functions was to curl up in a ball just like Sonic's spindash, and glow with green energy before he collided into Sonic. The member of the Justice Force got smashed like a golf ball got smashed by a bowling ball, and as Sonic got launched through a wall Carol winced." Oh come on, does this guy ever run out of tricks?"

"Don't worry." Tail's threw out." As powerful as his new machine is its still only one of him! With team work we can take him down!"

Brevon saw everyone surround him before he snickered. "Oh by all means come at me as a team all you like. The fact remains, I still have total control of the situation!"

Brevon's mech's eyes glowed, and just as everyone charged at him the gravity in the room suddenly shifted and everyone was thrown into the wall. The man in the mech chuckled as everyone tried to quickly readjust to the new gravity." I may not control everything, but controlling the gravity in this room is a good start."

Sonic slowly got back on his feet before he glared at the bad guy in the mech."Playing gravity games to eh? Great, might as well be back in the Death Egg. It's cool, try and trip me up any way you like Brevon, it's still not going to be enough!"

The blue blur of a man moved around so fast he was leaving after images all over the area. Brevon reacted by unleashing a barrage of missiles, and when Sliver caught them with his psychic powers he merely had them explode while frozen to knock Sliver back.

He saw Blaze, Sonic, Lilac, Spade and others try and attack him from all sides and merely had his mech glow again before unleashing a barrage of lasers in all directions to hit everyone.

The comrade of Jacen Solo just laughed as he flew above everyone." Face it hedgehog, work with your friends all you like but the fact remains you don't have the power to stop me! Nothing you have can stop me!"

"That so Brevon?" Sonic wryly retorted as he got back on his feet." You don't know us as nearly as well as you think, and if you're being this pushy about it then it's going to cost you everything! I wanted to save on the rings for the final push, but we don't have time to waste on you! Ready for some super smack down guys? Let's do it Tails!"

Sonic's best friend nodded before he pressed a button and released the sphere he made that was holding the seven Chaos Emeralds. As the mystical objects glowed and begun circling around Sonic Ben's friend form Mobius chuckled." Thought we were the ones who were over our head big shot? Your about to see how wrong you really were, about everything!"

Brevon saw the emeralds were glowing faster, before he just grinned." You took the words, right out of my mouth!"

Everyone got caught off guard as Brevon suddenly ejected himself from his mecha, and launched himself into the Chaos Emeralds before Sonic could grab them. Sonic, Lilac and everyone else felt a surge of dread as Brevon grasped the Chaos Emeralds and had a look of raw delight flash across his face."I know more than you think Sonic the Hedgehog! One of those things is that these gems seem to be your trump card, and I will now take that power, for myself!"

Brevon instantly beckoned the Chaos Emeralds to give him power, and since he touched them first they obliged, unleashing a surge of power that blasted everyone off their feet.

When the light faded Lilac saw that Brevon was now floating in the air above everyone, now looking more muscular with his entire body glowing red. As she saw her archenemy now had glowing red eyes and a bloody aura swirling around him she cringed." Oh come on, how many tricks does this jerk have?"

"That's not his trick Lilac, that's mine!" Sonic blurted out bitterly as he got back on his feet."All of that, just to get the Chaos Emeralds for himself? Great, so much for saving time!"

Tails winced as he backed up." I told you to not be careless about going Super Sonic! Well, at least this time the trap did not turn you into a werehog."

As Sonic winced Brevon laughed madly, casually punching the pillar to his right with enough force to shatter it." Yes…this is real power, true power! I saw footage of you using theses gems to give yourself enough power to casually knock the space mines away on the way to the base, and saw such power was in such, unworthy hands! A true conqueror always knows how to relive inferiors of there resources they are not worthy of!

All it took was riling you simpletons up to force your hand! With this power, I feel like my strength is infinite! Now as Infinite Brevon, I will make sure I come out on top as one of this Battle-World's Champions!"

"Screw you Brevon!" Lilac roared out defiantly." Your just an infinite jerk, and you're not going to get away with it!"

Lilac and Carol both charged at Brevon and struck him, only for their blows to not even make him flinch. Their opponent sneered before he drew his sword, and that simple action had enough speed to it to create a shockwave to knock the two ladies back.

As Brevon got into a fighting stance his sword now shimmered with energy before his eyes narrowed."You girls already were nothing to me, but with how my power now is, the difference is so wide your delusions will shatter! Enough is enough, time to."

Brevon prepared to strike, when Sonic suddenly appeared above him to attack in the blink of an eye with his Drop Dash strike. Brevon casually blocked the blow with his other hand, and as he looked up Sonic just gave a causal grin."Going super's one hardcore rush eh creep? You pulled a fast one on me, but I'm far use to having this power then you!"

Brevon swung his sword at Sonic, using his enhanced power to unleash an energy sword wave that was large enough to carve through an entire segment of the room. As many machines exploded in the projectile's wake the man who took the Chaos Emeralds for a moment thought he hit Sonic, only to pause as he saw the image fade and realized it was a after image. Brevon glanced around to see after images were all around him, before he saw a blue twister was forming.

The insectoid male raised his sword, but paused after a moment. As the Sonic Cyclone got larger sparks of red lighting crackled the man's hands. The cyclone looked like it was starting to glow, before in the blink of an eye there was an explosion of red light from above.

Everyone blinked as Brevon was suddenly gone, and a chill crept down everyone's spine as they heard a cry from above, and glanced up to see Brevon had moved so fast that even Sonic had not seen him move right where he was running to, and punching him in the chest.

The blow was enough to make Sonic cough out blood, and as the hero of Mobius blinked Brevon smirked." You may have been right about that fact hedgehog, but as your learning the hard way I'm a fast learner! It did take me a few moments, but my body has adjusted properly. Yes, adjusted to kill you properly!"

"Tsc...have to catch me first Brevon! And I out raced death itself!"

Sliver used his power to fling more of the rubble at Brevon. His target casually caused the rubble to be vaporized by the energy blasts he released from his fingers, but the action caused him to loosen his grasp enough for Sonic to escape. The villain snarled and burst after him.

Sonic moved as fast as he could out of the room, but Brevon showed off his new power as he merely burst through the walls to appear in front of Sonic again and enjoyed the stressed look on the native to Mobius's face." It's a pity you were so hell bent on being a hero, after all the fate of a heroes to die!"

"Maybe where you're from punk, but where I am from they get the job done! Besides, I don't mind if people see me as a hero, but my main drive has been to do what it takes to keep me and my friends free!

I mean, keeping that freedom going mostly means making sure bad guys like you, the Eggman, and all the creeps in the Zannacross Empire did not have their way but, I never was keen on being bound to anyone's will but my own. Heh…even Amy is starting to get that after all these years. I just love being free as the wind too much to let punks like you cramp my, or any other freedom loving dude's style!"

"Tsc…I seen your type before, Sonic the Hedgehog. You win people over with your style and charisma, and people think you're a leader. But this acting free is not true strength, its weakness!

True resolve is doing what must be done, no matter who hates you! I guided my people to prosperity and crushed whoever stood in the way of that! It's easy to run away from confrontation, it takes true conviction to head right for it to take control!"

"Something tells me you don't have many friends dude. Heh, also clear as day you love bossing others around, but that's not my style! The way I see it, if you're not hurting someone you should be free to do what you want! With that freedom brings endless possibilities!"

"Bah…more like endless chaos! Freedom brings disorder, and disorder brings ruin! Only when people are acting in their proper place, not in some delusion, can a society run smoothly! Those that spread chaos are a disease, and when I win this Battle-World I'll give the universe the cure to chaos at last!"

"Only if your fast enough to grab the prize Brevon!"

Sonic dashed away again and Brevon responded by releasing another energy sword wave attack. While his target was able to evade the strike he saw Brevon keep attacking, till suddenly his path was cut off by flames. As Sonic stopped he tensed up realizing he was stuck in a cage of flames, because his enemy's attacks were not random, but sliced away part of the platform the two were currently on, leaving Sonic trapped in a cage of flame.

As Brevon flied above him Sonic wiped some sweat off his brow before he chuckled anxiously." He must have planned this out in less than a second, dude's sharp all right."

"Do you see now, that I live and breathe for battle?" Brevon threw out." Now do you see the end result of boundless freedom Sonic the Hedgehog? Freedom, possibility, such delusions only lead to chaos! Only a tight order brings prosperity! You keep running to run away from the truth, till you reach a dead-end, such as now!"

Sonic looked around to see how fast and far he would have to jump to get out of the platform before he narrowed his eyes." Wanting to be free is not the same as running aimlessly Brevon! I just want people to be free to choose their own path and make sure punks like you can't force them down a road they don't want!

I admit thinking too far ahead is not really my style but, my friends like Tails, Ben, and all the other Enji have been working out a game plan to make a future that's pretty rad. It's to rad for scum like you to mess up so I swear I'll do whatever it takes to make sure you don't mess that up!"

Brevon raised his sword into the air to gather power before yelling out," No matter how serious you are about that, in the end your dream is inferior because you're an inferior being! Victory, glory, even things like freedom and happiness are only things that are reserved for the strong, for the winners! And those who can't accept it, will learn the hard way!"

At this point Lilac and some of the others had managed to catch up to Sonic, and the purple women saw Sonic was trapped and that Brevon was about to unleash his attack.

She had grasped the Kingdom Stone on the way over and as she saw how vile the man who invaded her home looked she looked determined."Your wrong Brevon! I don't care how many worlds you terrorized or how much more stuff you know then me! I know, that when you do something wrong, it will catch up to you one way or another! My home, my people, they are not worthless!"

Brevon sneered at the dragon lady before he aimed his growing energy attack at her."Your squawking has taxed me enough women. It's your own fault you can only learn your powerless through death!"

"I'm not powerless Brevon, that's why you tried to steal my power! Carol, give me a boost!"

Her cat friend nodded and Lilac got on her friend's motorcycle as Carol ran up the wall. Lilac then jumped off the wall and charged at Brevon with the Kingdom Stone Brevon let her charge at him, fully expecting to take her blow without any difficulty. However, the Kingdom Stone suddenly shimmered with light as it struck him, before Brevon saw his own aura waver.

As he felt weaker he raised he pointed his sword at her." Now what is this you damn brat? Damn it, why am I feeling weaker? The Kingdom Stone is an energy source, not something that can affect me now!"

Sonic saw Brevon's energy start to dim before he grinned." Infinite power does not last forever Brevon! You may have gotten a peak at my Hyper form but you did not realize how much it takes to keep it up so something tells me you did not stock pile on rings dude!"

Brevon growled in outrage and as Tails arrived he saw what was going on and checked his equipment before he looked shocked. "The Kingdom Stone does have readings that sort of are like the Chaos Emeralds…even if it's not quite a match, like with the Fake Emerald we used all those years ago the Kingdom Stone must be enough like the Chaos Emeralds to act as a substitute and is disrupting Brevon's super mode!"

Brevon fell to the ground before he glared at Lilac. "No…I won't be denied by twits like you! I'll take this power, and add it to mine to finish this! Not a bad final move Sash Lilac, but you're over your head defying someone with a far superior will to you! And the price of that, will be losing your head!"

Lilac winced as she saw Brevon prepare to take the Kingdom Stone away from her she held her ground. Before Brevon could rip the stone away Sonic suddenly dashed up to her and grasped the Kingdom Stone as well before he looked Brevon right in the eye." She may be over her head, but I got her back! I did energy tug of wars before Brevon, and know how to come out on top! Go with the flow Lilac, open your heart, and it will work out!"

Lilac hesitated for a moment, before she saw how serious Sonic was and nodded. The two focused, before they transferred enough energy from Brevon to allow Sonic to turn to his Hyper state.

At the same time Lilac felt a surge of power before her hair shot up and turned white and red. Carol saw her best friend transform before she gasped." What…what did they do to her?"

"Relax girl, she's just used the Emerald's power to enter the super state!" Sonic wryly retorted."

Carol saw how powerful her friend looked before she chuckled." Well, I knew she was super but now she really looks like miss hero pants! Smash this guy's face in already!"

Lilac grasped her fist before she grinned." That's the plan Carol! I never felt this kind of power before, it feels great! Brevon, you're finished!"

Her enemy snarled as he flew above the two." That's right, keep thinking that till the moment I kill you! You just prolonged this a little, I still am superior to the likes of you!"

Brevon raised his blade to try and unleash another energy blast, but as he did Sonic suddenly appeared behind him in a burst of speed and grasped his hand. Brevon realized he could not break free before he saw Sonic smirking at him." Sorry tough guy, you lost your edge, and your about to lose everything else!"

Before Brevon could respond Lilac showed just how fast she was by punching Brevon before he could defend himself. In her powered-up state, the blow was strong enough to punch him through a wall. Lilac looked at her own fist before she smirked."Got that straight! This power is awesome! Hey, wait am I flying now? This is even more awesome!"

Sonic just chuckled as he crossed his arms."Keep it together Lilac, the power feels great sure but as bug eyes found out it takes a toll on you. Don't mess around too much, we got a deadline to meet!"

Lilac blushed before she nodded, just as Brevon blasted out of the hole he was sent through. Seeing blood come out of his cheek caused the man who took over many planets to narrow his eyes."Like I said before, I adjust quickly!"

Brevon suddenly fired a barrage of energy beams from his fingers, and while the two super speedsters were able to evade the blasts Brevon hit Lilac as she evaded his blast with enough force to smash her through the ceiling.

The villain had less than a second to enjoy the pain he caused before Hyper-Sonic kicked his knee. The two exchanged blows for a bit that were too fast for everyone to see, till Brevon backed off again and fired another barrage of energy blasts.

Sonic evaded the blasts with ease but Brevon kept firing as he moved as well, before he grinned and had the energy blasts that Sonic evaded home in on him. Sliver saw this before blurting out,"Sonic watch out! That looks like a homing attack!"

"Yah I can see that Sliver." Sonic threw out in a deadpanned manner." No offense dude, I do have eyes." Sonic kept zigzagging away from the blasts, and saw one was heading for Liac from behind and quickly pushed her out of the way before it hit her and exploded.

The explosion propelled Sonic into the air, and Brevon grinned before his energy surged and he unleashed a sphere of black energy and hurled it at Sonic. His target tried to run but as he expected a explosion he realized he was being pulled into it. Sonic saw the sphere grow larger before he cringed." What kind of blast is this?"

"That would be Null Space you spiky moron." Brevon snickered out." Its a closed off space where nothing can exist! No matter how fast you run, you can enjoy running to no where till you at last run your last! I must admit, I needed the power of my flagship to pull this off before but its much more enjoyable doing this personally!"

Sonic found himself about to be pulled into the Null Space before Lilac ran and caught Sonic." I'm not letting you win Brevon no matter what trick you use! Ugh, a black hole or something is a pain to out run though!"

"Heh...maybe but its still not fast enough for us to out run! Just got to pace ourselves Gal! Got to time this right, sync with my movements Llaic so we can get the max boost!"

The younger hero nodded, and after a few tight breaths the two burst in sync, and succeeded in unleashing enough friction to burst out of the black sphere. Brevon saw the Null Space sphere shatter before he snarled with rage." No, this must be a trick! Only a god can out run a black hole!"

"Maybe alone Brevon." Sonic answered smugly." But I'm not by myself, I had help from a way cool teammate! I know someone like you who clearly has no friends can understand that but hey, seeing is believing in the endless possibilities of Super Sonic, whoa!"

Brevon just snarled with rage as he tried to burst at the glowing hedgehog to finish him with an energy infused stab. Before he could pull it off, Lilac burst at him and had energy surge across her hair to form a blade of glowing energy and catch Brevon's blade.

Lilac saw her opponent look shocked that his blow was caught before she unleashed a barrage of kicks that were so fast they appeared as a blazing blur." Feel the pain you caused Milla and everyone else to feel Brevon! Feel what it's like to fear for your life!"

After a few more seconds of light speed pummeling Lilac ended her combo with a supped-up Dragon Cyclone strike, spinning like a drill to hit Brevon hard enough to cause a dent in his armor.

As other cracking sounds are heard, Brevon roared in pain, and grasped his sword as he landed on the ceiling with his feet."I won't be reduced to your level Lilac! I'm not like you, I destroy scum like you! DIE!"

Brevon quickly unleashed a massive energy wave from his sword to attempt to vaporize the hero's. However Sonic suddenly had his aura surge before he uttered," Your right Brevon she's not on your level, because she's way higher then you! You may have tried to seal my power but high time I show you that you can never have the style of Sonic the Hedgehog! Infinite Mass Spindash!"

The member of the Justice Force wasted no time making use of the time Lilac gave him to prepare his best attack, and just as his enemies projectile raced to him he blasted off like a sonic boom, shattering the incoming energy blast without slowing down a moment.

Brevon did not even have time to curse as he tried to slash at Sonic, only to be hit in the chest before he could even try. Brevon felt pain rocket through his body before he gave everything he had to try and resist the impact."GUH! I am Lord, Arktivus Brevon! I won't let my ambitions be ruined by mere, GUH!"

Any resistance he gave failed the moment Lilac kicked him in the face."Just shut up and take your loss like a man already Brevon! You're done!"

Sonic had his move hit Brevon full force, and his target had just a moment to widen his eyes before everyone saw an impact smash into his body with a shockwave that rocked the chamber, till it looked like he was knocked out of his "Infinite Brevon state" before he was smashed out of the base like a speeding bullet. Carol made out an explosion in the distance before she gulped." Did…did that take him down?"

"I don't care how stubborn he is, he's done." Sonic threw out brashly." He was more of a pain then I figured, but just made me pull out my A game for the big race!"

Lilac took a few tense breaths before she landed on the ground." Guess you really are a pro at this Sonic, I feel like I'm about to burst. Not from the energy, just form all the tension. Still, I did it, I really stopped Brevon! If only, that was the end of it."

"Don't sell yourself short Lilac." Sonic threw out seriously." Your still rough around the edges but you got the heart of a true Freedom Fighter. Just live and learn and follow the wind eh?"

"Thanks Sonic."

"Just calling it as I see them. I had more to say but we still got a dead line, right? That reminds me, we still got to bust up the machine right? Um, the one that we need to bust to make sure all the bad guys don't blow up any planets?"

Lilac cringed before Torque ran up to everyone, looking exhausted. For a moment he looked like he was going to keel over before he suddenly gave an thumps up." Don't worry, it worked! I was able to get back to the last standing terminal while you guys had your high-speed showdown with Brevon. Nice own age by the way. So, yah its dicey but, it worked!"

Spade chuckled before he threw back his scarf in a dramatic fashion." Glad you're not just deadweight space duck."

"I knew you could do it Torque!" Iliac yelled out cheerfully." Alright, between this and Mila being ok we got this in the."

The women's cheer was cut off as everyone heard a trembling sound, and with the new hole in the ceiling everyone saw energy from the star above go into the Star-Killer base. Seeing this caused Carol to hiss before she glared at Torque." I thought you got the job done? You lying duck!"

"Hey I shut down the one part, not the whole base! Give me a break this was a team effort remember?"

"He's right!" Tails quickly interjected as he got between the two." It's up to the others to make sure the plan goes through!"

"Well I'm not the most patient hedgehog in the best of times Tails." Sonic blurted out as, still in his Hyper state he tapped his foot rapidly." And now I'm taking all I can to not go dashing in. C'mon, let's make sure they are getting the job done eh? I know the others can pull their own weight no matter who's getting in their way. Just hoping everyone's focusing on the right things now, especially some of them.

I don't doubt James and the others when they made their choice, but Egg-man's played the long con before, but. Tsc…guess I just got to hope he realizes what's going on. C'mon guys, we still have bad guys to beat!"

Lilac, Tails, and the others nodded before they quickly dashed to try and help the rest of their allies before it was too late.

---

Little did Sonic realize his former rivals and arch enemy were taking things very seriously, because the person they were facing would kill them if they did not take him seriously for a second.

To Robotnik's dismay Relius was quickly showing that his expertise as a robotic puppeteer was no mere boast as Ignis had his former Hard-Boiled Heavies, now called the Phantom Heavies, command all of them without pause.

Knuckles had just dodged another shuriken from the Phantom Shinobi only to get smashed in the head by the Phantom King. The crown wearing robot tried to blast the Guarding of the Master Emerald, only to be hit in the head by Shadow.

Sonic's red friend with dreadlocks quickly bounced back to his feet and as he rubbed his head he grunted out," Damn it Egg-Man, this is all because you made such weird robots! Now that I think about it, having robots with talents was the thing that Doctor Wily did with his "Robot Masters" right? So in the end your just a copycat eh?"

"I'm no copycat knuckle head!"

Robotnik roared out proudly as he blocked an energy blast Relius unleashed before blocking another attack from Ignis with his shield and returning fire." I admit when I started working on the Future Foundation Doctor Light gave me…a few ideas on how to make robots differently.

But the way my former Heavies had unique talents was done with an Egg man touch! I'd explain now but even if we had a time for an explanation it would be over your head. I assure you they are different though, that Megaman and his pals won't get weapons if they blew up my, huh?"

Robotnik saw a warning sigh flash across the Egg-Gladiator's radar before Relius showed enhanced speed was one of his tricks was well, as he was on the machine's cockpit in the blink of an eye. Relius just gave a dark smirk as puppet hands came out of his sleeves to grasp on to the mecha." You seem, quite defensive about the quality of your work. I can understand to an extent, but seeing an inferior artist think they are on my level, just makes me want to silence them.

Maybe your world has far different standards for what qualifies as artistically pleasing but, it just means your entire world is tone death. No matter, I'll give the material that's useful an overhaul, once I delete the rest."

Robotnik saw Ignis have her limbs transform into a giant scissors blade before he gulped."Hey…not everyone gets my style, but no one is allowed to dismiss the quality of any creation of Doctor Robotnik!"

Robotnik had his giant flail rotate around to try and smash Ignis from behind. The female doll quickly changed the state of her arms to allow to block her attack, and while Relius moved his eyes Robotnik had targeting lasers lock on to the masked man and open fire. The deranged scientist in purple snickered as he moved to evade the incoming projectiles. Rouge saw her human comrade angerly try and pin down the one mocking him before she evaded more projectiles from the Phantom Gunner.

As she kicked an incoming missile back at the blue gun welding robot that fired at it she rolled her eyes."I don't know Ivo…your machines are a bit, tacky at times in the way you make them. I mean, never heard that a true artist tries not to make it all about themselves you know? Besides, if your work was that great Sonic would not have been able to bust it with a few jumps!"

Rouge was cut off as she saw the Phantom Magician unleashing a red energy blast for her. The bat women flew above the laser and threw a pulse grenade to try and scramble the rouge robot's systems.

However, the Phantom Magician suddenly took its hat off, and had it glow before it became enlarged and caught the grenade. Two more hats appeared out of thin air around Rouge, till the hats moved around, and flipped over before unleashing purple lasers at their target.

Robotnik saw Knuckles dive at her to get her out of the way in time before he grasped his fist."Hey, don't be a hater Rouge just because you don't get it! To be a top scientist, one has to deal with setbacks. And, despite everything I been through, and despite just how many things I made have blown up over the years, I still see that all as a set back!

It's just, surviving the Cosmic War and being spared got me to change my perspective on things. But, I did not give up on my dream, just changed, my methods!"

Relius snorted before he threw out,"A true scientist is not bound by the morals of lesser beings. You clearly don't have the will power to change existence, thus you're not my equal but an eyesore. Exustio!"

The masked man snapped his fingers, before giant gears erupted underneath Robotnik to bind the Egg Gladiator. Relius saw the fatter scientist try and blast the gears before he crossed his arms."Morals…emotions, such things are merely roadblocks for a true scientist."

"Hey guy I had your line of thought for a while but then it became clear it caused to many, complications."

"Bah…you're just a coward…too afraid of doing what must be done. No matter who opposes me, I just fine the ideal solution to the roadblock in my way, and erase it. Even if all of society opposes my experiments, they will merely pay for defying progress! Of course, being the victor of this little Battle-World would speed up my ambitions by quite a lot, hence why, you must be removed."

Knuckles heard the rant Relius gave and just snorted." You got even more screws loose then Egg-Man freak! No smug masked dude's going to decide how, huh? Hey!"

Knuckles saw that the Phantom-Shinobi become a shuriken and was flying right for him. Sonic's friend dived down fast enough to avoid being impaled, and saw he lost a few strands of hair from his dreadlocks before he grit his teeth."That's it! Think you can mess around with me like I'm just a dumb target? Think again!"

Knuckles wound up his right arm, and as the Phantom Shinobi came around for a second attempt his target punched the ground hard enough to shake the ground. While that punch missed the Heavy Phantom but, the punch was hard enough to create a geyser of magma that erupted right under the robotic shinobi, and sent it off course.

Knuckles grinned and instantly charged at the damaged robot, before unleashing an uppercut before it could recover, with enough force to shatter it. As the remains of the Phantom Shinobi fell to the ground Knuckles kicked away its head and chuckled." You keep calling us inferior freak, but we been kicking since life started more or less, and if we managed to not be replaced by what some dark god wanted as his new "superior' life" some toys that a creep with too much time on his hands are not going to replace us either!"

Relius saw how passionate Knuckles was before he sighed."Ah the passion of organics. So consistent, constantly annoying."

Shadow snickered as he evaded all the projectiles being thrown at him by the Phantom Gunner, Magician, and King before he ran up the wall, as the robots changed their movements Shadow suddenly unleashed his Chaos Control, to appear behind the Phantom Magician.

Just as the hat wearing robot swerved around Shadow quickly unleashed his Chaos Spear energy projectile before the Heavy Phantom could react. Blasting its face off. The other two tried to hit Shadow before he could move but Omega flew in front of him and took the hits.

With all the upgrades the E-1000 robot had gotten over the years he was able to endure the blasts, and before the smoke cleared Omega unleashed a barrage of energy blasts that hit the Phantom Gunner right as he was about to fire, causing a chain reaction that caused him to explode as well.

As Omega landed on the wreckage of Robotnik's newer creation he just holstered his gun arms."Old, but not obsolete. No matter how much time passes, this unit will do what's required to be able to perform the objective."

Rough saw the Phantom King slam the ground with his specter to the ground to have energy orbs circle around him and just giggled."That's right Omega, classics never die and fools who try and mess with that are due for some pain, right boys?"

The Phantom King fired a massive blast of energy from its specter but Rouge managed to fly above the blast, and fire a flash grenade to blind the corrupted robot. As the last Heavy Phantom was blinded it had energy orbs fly out in all directions.

Omega and Shadow unleashed energy attacks of their own to keep them form hitting everyone, before Knuckles glided pass the energy orbs to punch the Phantom King in the head. The regal robot endured the strike, and as it fell down it tried to aim its scepter at Knuckles to vaporize him.

Before he could fire, Rouge flew up and kicked the scepter with all of her strength, causing the scepter to be knocked back, and face its owner's head right as it fired. Rouge smirked as the last Heavy Phantom was vaporized by its own attack."That's right…some things are not meant to change blondie…and if you can't get that then get lost!"

Relius sighed at the sight of his destroyed pawns before he snapped his fingers once more before Ignis went to his side."My…it would seem your creations are so feeble they can't even terminate your local beastkin. No matter, it gave me enough of a display to plan out your executions. I have planets to destroy Ignis, finish them off."

His robotic servant had her eyes glow before her hands turned to blades and she spun around like a demonic top. Knuckles saw her coming for her and just snarled." That's right, keep coming at me, I have enough in me to break robots all day!"

Knuckles prepared to punch the ground and unleash another geyser like he did with the Phantom Shinobi, but as he did Ignis suddenly stopped her spin and unleashed a black orb of energy to blast the shocked Knuckles before he could react.

Shadow saw Knuckles get blasted into a terminal heard enough to smash it, and also saw Omega try and blast Ignis form behind before the doll like women's right hand deflected the blast without even turning her head before the black furred hedgehog grasped his hand tightly."Careful! Not sure but it seemed this doll has the data on our moves from the Egg-Bots!"

Ignis then fired at him, and while Shadow tried to dodge his attacker fired at where he prepared to move. As Shadow got blasted into the air Relius chuckled." Unlike the junk you must be use to dealing with, my creations learn, and learn quickly. well crafted AI adapts so much quicker than most lifeforms of the flesh, less cumbersome affairs to deal with. You should,"

Relius was cut off as Robotnik suddenly swung his Flail again, and this time had spikes burst out as missiles. As the missiles all homed in on their target Robotnik groaned." Enough already we get it! You like showing off how great a weapon your wife bot is Clover! But keep feeling smug and you're going to regret making your prized creation so lightly armored! Trust me, those guys have broken through far more fortified machines then her!"

"Are you implying I designed her poorly? Nonsense, you're merely showing once again you're not on my level. Did you think your little toys would ever amount to anything but cannon folder, that they would ever be art? Please, art is a work of beauty, captured and left for posterity…it is the beauty of all eternity. You simpletons think I'm a barbarian for upgrading my family, but I did them a great service!

I raised them above the mundane, to make them the eternal, beyond the weaknesses of organics! Just in case you are the stubborn type….let me make you pay dearly for those weaknesses right now. Ignis…we played with them long enough, gas them and be done with it."

Everyone cringed as the purple metallic women had her eyes glow, before green gas instantly started to come out of holes in her shoulders. Robotnik cringed at this site before he pressed a few buttons, and the shield on the Egg-Gladiator had a hole open up before he activated a powerful suction force to suck in the poison gas.

The scientist grinned as he saw Omega attack Ignis to force her to close her gas ports." Hey I need those guys so this is a no poison zone you hear? Hey wait where he, guh!"

As Sonic's former enemy protected his allies when he looked back at Relius he was gone. But the fatter scientist quickly realized where the thinner one went as he felt a force strong enough to shake him around in his cockpit before his cameras showed that Relius was now behind him, and had his puppet hands grasp the Egg-Gladiator's thrusters." Such banality. …you fell for the most basic of ploys. As tacky as your craft is, commandeering your fire power should assist in mopping up you galling variables at a swift pace. Let's finish this Ignis. Machina! Ultimum!"

The women machine known as the "Denotator" swiftly floated into the air before jabbing the Egg-Gladiator with her fingers. Robotnik yelled as sparks of lighting erupted all over his giant machine, and moments later it glowed purple. Knuckles cringed as he saw targeting lasers form on his face before he quickly ran backwards." I knew it, I knew one way or another relying on Egg-Man was going to screw us over."

Relius waved his hand before the Egg-Gladiator thrusted forward and smashed Omega into Rouge with its Flail. As he saw Shadow and Knuckles run around with conflicted looks he chuckled again." Serves you right for relying on inferiors. Yes, once your dealt with, soon the rest of the universe will follow.

Then at last, things will be as they should be. I spent years following those like Hades: Izanami and others to get the material needed to complete my experiments, and after all these years of suffering dealing with the whims of inferiors at last I'll be able to make things how they should be!"

Relius snapped his fingers before at his command the Egg-Gladiator opened up its chest panel to charge up its most powerful laser cannon. As the charged particle cannon gathered more energy Relius crossed his arms." You simpletons delayed me enough. And the finale. Feel the pain."

Shadow looked like he was about to prepare an attack but it looked like the hijacked machine was going to fire first, and it did. However, just as the Egg-Gladiator opened fire, it suddenly shifted direction, and fired right at Ignis. Relius had his eye twitch as his prized creation was hit before she could react properly, and as an explosion broke out he hissed out,"Ignis? What the duce is, huh?"

Relius saw that a giant spiky mace was coming for him, and while he dodged that, as he looked again at Ignis Knuckles charged for the masked man and slammed him right in the jaw. Knuckles saw his enemy go flying before he chuckled."Take that! Guess you're not some god after all eh?"

Relius just looked at the blood rolling down his now bruised face, and then saw the Egg-Gladiator flying above him before he grasped his fist."What farce is this? Did one of you worms hide that you could use magic?"

Robotnik suddenly got back up on his cockpit before giving a large boastful laugh." The only magic is my genius you hack! Nice try, but after how embarrassing it was to have my machines hijacked by Metal Sonic, Eggman Nega, Zavok and the rest of those Zeti eyesores I swore I would not let my machines be easy pickings! I figured there would be some wild stuff going on here, that's why I had an override pulse ready to go just for something like this! I played along just to get a shot in and you fell in hook line and sinker!"

"Wait so that was you who shot me Egg-Man?" Knuckles shouted out furiously." Cool it Knuckle head, I made most of the stuff miss on purpose and whatever pain you felt from that is far less then what would have happened if this bozo had his way eh?"

Relius saw Rouge and Shadow just look annoyed before he saw the smoke clear, and saw Ignis had one of her arms vaporized from taking the blast before he narrowed his eyes." I underestimated your abilities, but that will not happen again. I admit I got lax, my thanks for sending me to my senses. I can't get unfocused now, not when I'm at the cusp of being the architect of perfection! No matter what antics you resort to, I'll destroy it all to see my ultimate experiment through!"

"Oh brother, and you say I'm a fraud of a scientist?" Robotnik snapped back." What kind of scientist wants to reach one perfect level and call it a day? Any real scientist would want to stay as far away from perfection as bad chilly dogs! Yah…Sonic got me hooked on those.

But yah anyway if you reach perfection then there is nothing left to do and then it's boring! I mean that's why I did not want to make everyone on Mobius go through Roboticization, because if no one is left to grovel, er, I mean be happy about what a scientist produces then what's the point?"

Knuckles heard his former enemy's speech and just raised an eyebrow."Wait, is that the reason you did not blow up our world with all your stuff like the Death-Egg, the Ark, and all those monsters like Chaos and Iblis?"

Robotnik paused for a moment before he cleared his throat."Um…yah let's go with that Knuckles. I admit, at times I got so caught up in my experiments and seeing them through that I lost sight of things before Sonic, Tails, Shadow, and even you got me to see clearly.

But, after a little perspective gained by avoiding an Armageddon or two, and seeing how other scientists like Wily, and even my own other reality counterpart Nega ended up, it caused me to rethink a few things.

From the start I wanted to get revenge for my grandfather Gerald, for at the time I thought the masses wronged him to make up for feeling inferior. Even after finding out the truth of what he did with Black Doom, I still felt it was their fault for not understanding.

However, after rethinking things, and talking with other scientists like Doctor Light and Reed Richards, I had to admit that a scientific breakthrough that only helps a few does seem like poorer results then a breakthrough that helps many. That's why…I'm committed to doing this new leaf thing right, and making sure crazy guys like you don't blow everything up before I finish my parole!"

Relius was silent for a moment, before he chuckled darkly." It is highly amusing at times to see how failures rationalize their weakness, but that amusement quickly morphs to loathing when it interferes with true progress! Your just too weak to see your research through."

"You're the one deluding yourself wise guy!" Robotnik snapped back as he charged up his primary laser." You can be as brilliant as you want, but I learned the hard way that if you dismiss everyone around you it's going to cost you, and it's going to cost you alright since as you found out, as well made as your creation is, it's not going to be enough!"

"Face it Relius Clover…you can either surrender and show us where your comrades are so we can stop them, or go down painfully!" Shadow proclaimed. Relius saw everyone surround him, and just closed his eyes." You will all pay for assuming you could defy me. You think that I fear the resistance of the masses? I have the means to subdue any who defy me, even if the opposing force has numbers of that of an entire nation!

I have not had to resort to this since I subjected 3rd Hierarchical City of Iwasu, but I suppose this time I don't have Nine to warp those around at will. So be it, die in The Puppeteer's Altar!"

Everyone tensed up as Relius had his magical aura surge, before dozens of beings like Ignis materialized out of the ground. Rouge saw that some were covered less, some had helmets over their eyes, or swords attached to their backs or guns to their shoulders but all had the same blank face as Ignis.

Seeing so many women with blank faces suddenly looking at her caused the bat women to shiver."Oh, just great, we did not have to see how many women you tortured you monster!"

Relius had dozens of purple energy threads swerve around his hands before he snapped his finger, and all the new women got into fighting stances."Sometimes dear, overkill helps set the tone. Ignis is my prized creation, but I made so many attempts to smelt my masterpiece that as you can see, I ended up with nearly a hundred automatons. Now…perish in the overwhelming might of my art."

Robotnik saw a dozen or so of Relius 's puppets lock on to him before he chuckled."Oh so we are making it a numbers game eh? Not bad, but no one said the Egg man empire had puny forces! Was not sure if it would be a good time to try it out but, sure why not? Go and fight, my Metal Sonic brigade! Pym particles do your stuff!"

The scientist fired a few pods out of his shoulder armor, and after a few moments they glowed, before they grew in size. Moments later dozens of robotic clones, the Metal Sonic doppelgangers Robotnik made in the past to try and kill the real one landed on the ground.

Knuckles saw the tall Mecha Sonic that tried to take the Master Emerald when he first met Sonic, and also the thinner Metal Sonic that kidnapped Amy and also saw the sliver robotic Sonic that fought his friend when he first boarded the Death Egg all have their eyes glow before he cringed." The hell is this Egg-Man? You think you can lie about being peaceful when you had a hidden army of Metal Sonic clones?"

"They are an emergency rescue force Knuckle head!"

Robotnik growled out." I made these units as emergency rescue units because they are fast and sturdy in a fire! Don't worry, they are a lot more basic then the one who got all back stabby! Might not be my best work, but for cases like this quality beats quality. Its a pain to loose the Heavies but I always have backups, and now I know how to block the frequency!"

Relius saw the Metal Sonic brigade swarm around his puppets and grit his teeth."I beat you in both quality and quantity you buffoon. Why don't you show me…in your final moments…the value of your soul?"

Shadow tried to dash at the masked man only to see his puppets surround him. Fire and energy beams came at him from all directions and as Shadow burst to the other side of the room, and saw a Metal Sonic tackle one of the puppets before the nearest puppet could unleash its blades before he tried to call the Chaos Emeralds to him, only to feel resistance.

Not realizing Brevon was using them he just grit his teeth." Guess Sonic is facing resistance on his end as well. Whatever, even without the Chaos Emeralds I still am not close to my limit Clover!"

Shadow detached his bracelets, and unleashed all the power he could in his normal state. Relius saw Shadow glow red, and raised an eyebrow as the black hedgehog charged at one of the incoming puppets with enough force to shatter it. He then did a brief scan on the man with the title of "Ultimate life form" before he chuckled." What is this? Your make up is not as basic as I first thought, you look organic but your energy is giving an inorganic nature. So, this doctor was able to create more than mundane toys, and create unique souls? Perhaps there is a diamond in the rough after all, if I can get you to serve a better perhaps of course."

Shadow gave Relius a death glare as he dodged the chainsaw hand of one of the puppet maidens and threw a Chaos Spear without even facing her. He then jumped up to look at his enemy right in the eye." It's true my origins are not quite natural scum, but I'm no one's puppet! No matter who made me, I'm not bound by the will of the Doctor, Black Doom, the old Professor, Zannacross or even Maria! I chose for myself what I am, and crush anyone who tries to tell me otherwise! "

Sonic's rival swiftly dodged a barrage of fire, ice, missiles, and extended blades as Relius chuckled." Don't feel like I'm singling you out my specimen to be. Your deduction is just brought about because reality has been allowed to be left in this broken state. Yes, this repulsive state that's doomed to repeat the same mistakes over and over again. To rectify this, I'll remake existence as it should be once I win battle world and become its "ultimate architect".

"Tsc…think you know more than god do you?" Shadow snarled out as he saw a Metal Sonic spin dash through a puppet's head that was coming for him before he roundhouse kicked another puppet with claw hands into Omega before it was promptly blasted apart." I'm more then tired of dealing with idiots with god complexes. I won't let anyone decide my fate for me, and I intend to fulfill Maria's will till the day I die! That's what makes me Shadow the Hedgehog, that's who I am! Chaos Spear!"

Shadow swiftly unleashed a large red energy blast to blast through another puppet and try and blast its master. However, Shadow was shocked to see his target was no longer there, and that another puppet was in his place. Shadow prepared to attack once more when the puppet suddenly unleashed a blast of ice in the attempt to freeze him.

Relius saw Shadow move around only to slowly be cornered as his puppets fired in unison before he saw the others were also trying to evade the bombardment and sprouted a sinister grin." I'm quite tired of emotional outbursts, that's why it's time for this flaw to be corrected. If only, oh?"

Relius saw a Metal Sonic charge for him and had his puppet arms once more appear out of his sleeves and punch the incoming Sonic like robot through the chest, the red crystal-like barrier around it not slowing Relius for even a second.

The masked man merely shorted before he ripped the robot's head off. But the moment he threw its remains away he saw a shadow above him, and saw Robotic charging right down from below with the Flail on the Egg-Gladiator heading right for him.

Relius winced as he had his puppet arms branch out and try and catch the mace. The impact made him stagger, and seeing this caused Robotnik to laugh." I know fake outs to you know! Take it from someone who's been there, even god's who have god complexes don't end well Relius! If you think you alone can play god, then you're going to, GUH!"

Relius showed how annoyed he was by having Ignis warp in front of him and use her sole remaining limb to have spikes burst out and pierce right through the glass on the Egg-Gladiator to grasp Robotnik by his neck and swiftly choke him. The thinner scientist had a sadistic look as he saw his target be hurled above him." With the level of annoyance, you caused me your death can't be swift anymore, no. Yes, your so stubborn that I can't allow you die till you admit both your mental and physical inferiority. After all, despite being a self-proclaimed master of robotics I don't detect any part of your body is robotic."

"I…was tempted from time to time." Robotnik blurted out." But I was not too keen on having a limb go dead on me if one of my machines released a bad pulse. It was, GUH!"

Relius kept the pressure on Robotnik till he heard a cracking sound and leaned forward." Silence failure. All your chatter is just to divert from the fact that you're a failure. But now as you die, let the depths of your inferiority seep in to your soul!"

Sonic's comrades saw Robotnik being choked to death, but even with the Metal Sonic's helping Relius had to many puppets attacking them to get anywhere close to the masked man. Knuckles punched a puppet with red spear into the power generator before he heard Robotnik choke and clenched his teeth." Just great, much as a pain as Egg-Man is sounds like if this dude breaks him they might pull off blowing everyone up with this planet gun!

Theses robo girls are easy enough to break but there is to many of them! They are just a bunch of puppets, right? If only there was a way to cut the strings! Wait, maybe there is!"

Knuckles quickly climbed to the top of the chamber before he took out the Master Emerald. He saw more puppets coming for him, and saw they all had energy threads that linked back to Relius before he looked determined." Maybe it's not the same kind of relationship as the one between the Chaos Emeralds and the Master Emeralds but, it's still a chain of energy! Even if it's not as effective, it's better than nothing! The severs serve the chaos, sever the servers of chaos!"

The Master Emerald shined brightly, before it unleashed a shockwave of green energy that burst across the entire area. As it did, the power of the Master Emerald severed the energy threads Relius was using to command his puppets. Relius saw all of his pawns suddenly go off line, and as Ignis released her grasp on Robotnik his eye twitched. "What, those savages had magic that could meddle with my power? Impossible!"

"That's the thing about being smug Relius." Robotnik gasped out as his skin turned back to its normal color." You think you know things, and then that surprise comes back to bite you, and now you lost!"

"Hardly, Ignis is not like the others, she does not need my energy thread to function!"

Ignis twitched as she raised her arm again. But before she could attack Rouge flew at the women known as the denotator and cried out,"Your robo-spouse may have more than one battery but looks like it still needs takes too much time to wind up!"

The former agent of GUN unleashed a roundhouse kick. While Ignis easily blocked the strike, it was merely a distraction for Shadow to spin dash right for Ignis, and at full power he was able to succeed in smashing right through the chest of the combat doll. Relius got dismayed as he saw this, and got even more dismayed as E-Omega unleashed the most powerful laser blast he could generate to hit Ignis in her new hole, damaging her enough to cause her to explode.

Relius saw pieces of his prized creation fly all over the area before he yelled in anger, and swiftly grasped Robotnik by the throat himself before slamming him to the ground. Before Shadow and the others could turn to help Relius had his puppet arms come out once more to take control of the Egg-Gladiator and fly right for Star-Killer Bases shield generator.

Relius then had his aura seep into the warrior like machine before hissing out a manic,"You insects can't stop my genius, no matter desperate you get! I give you credit, this black hedgehog is nearly a weaker Black Beast. I'll take great pleasure in converting him, it's what I do best. Even now you can't stop me, I'll merely convert your little toy to a new host for Ignis. It may be barbaric but it will be enough to remake existence! Robotnik, you will never surpass me!"

"Maybe, but even if I can't ever match your mind, I do know when to let something go! Go on and cling to your ideas Relius, to the grave!"

Robotnik rotated his glasses, and thus entered the emergency command to have his eject seat go off. Relius looked shocked, and that shock quickly morphed to dread as the Egg-Gladiator made alarm sounds, and prepared to self-destruct. He saw the machine was flying at the Shield Generator before he tensed up." No…this petty farce won't be enough to unravel my ambition! I will not be bound by, huh?"

Shadow suddenly jumped up before bursting with red energy."You're at last going to be bound by the severity of your actions scum! Chaos Blast!"

Shadow and E-Omega both fired the most powerful energy blasts they could muster. As the combined beam raced for the masked man Relius used all of his magical energy to keep the beams back he staggered just as the Egg-Gladiator smashed into Star-Killer base's shield generator. He saw the mech below him prepare to blow before he yelled out a defiant. Bested…by a fool…?! My research must continue…I won't let anything stop me from,"

Before the murderous scientist could go on ranting the Egg-Gladiator commenced with its self-destruction, unleashing an explosion that hit the reactor, and after merging with the energy blasts caused an even bigger explosion that blasted through the entire ceiling. Robotnik was blasted upward but hearing Relius scream in what he assumed was his final moments alive made him chuckle." Who's the idiot now eh Relius? Looks like this is a, huh? Oh nuts."

The former scientist for the Zannacross Empire quickly had his state of elation shift to terror as he realized he was heading fast right for a now exposed reactor core. Robotnik found himself spinning to fast to stop before his eyes widened."Oh come on! Not like this, I go the extra mile just to go like this? Tell everyone at the funeral that I liked, GUH!"

The scientist felt a sudden jerk as something grasped him and stopped his collision before he heard a grouchy,"Oh quit your moaning Egg Man this isn't the end yet!"

After a few coughs Robotnik looked up and saw Knuckles had caught him in mid-glide. The owner of the Master Emerald casually showed off his strength by holding the scientist, and the Egg-Mobile he was in with one hand, and as he had an agitated look on his face Robotnik raised an eyebrow." You, you saved me Knuckle h, Knuckles?"

"Don't think we are best buddies or anything Egg-man." The red being barked back." I just did not want to get any grief if I let you blow up on my watch. Besides…hate to admit it but your tricks mostly got us out of this mess so I own you that much. I just want to know one thing Egg-man. That stuff you told the creep, do you really believe all that or just say the right things to save your hide and not go down with the ship with Zannacross?"

"Well I'd be lying if survival instincts did not factor into some of what changed my outlook on life. But, not all of it. Like I said, seeing all the scientists throughout the universe who thought they were all that only to end up to be known as annoying pests forced me to think of a few things. I meant what I said about doing things differently now. I...just want the end result of my science to be something remembered positively."

"Well…I'll buy it for now."

As the two landed on the ground the two former enemies looked each other in the eye Robotnik cleared his throat before throwing out a sincere." Thanks, nice work their using the Master Emerald to scramble his control, your shrewder then I give you for."

Rouge and the others walked over before the female of the group giggled." Seriously Knuckles, did not think you had it in you."

"Hey, I'm no moron alright?" Sonic's friend retorted defensively." Besides I had plenty of time to refine my skills with the Emerald with all the years of peace we had eh? On top of that, I saw how those idiots had me look in that show about Sonic and was insulted. I may not be as smart as Tails but come on, that show made me looked like a jacked-up idiot!"

Rouge giggled as she patted him on the back." Yah that show took a few to many creative licenses. What was with everyone having tacky bandages?"

Shadow quickly cleared his throat to cut in with a stern," Lets discuss bad media adaptations when everything we know is not on the risk of being destroyed yes? Good work everyone but at the same time, the fact remains that Relius Clover was a distraction from what are objective was. Doctor, what's the status on the shields?"

"Oh right that. Well now that no other pretentious blowhards are here to. Eh…not going to jinx it. You, get a connection going already!"

One of the surviving Metal Sonics nodded and plugged into one of the surviving terminals to give its master a readout. The scientist quickly looked at the data before he glanced at the destroyed pillar above everyone and chuckled." Looks like blowing up that pillar did it. The shields are down now."

"Great then lets." Before Knuckles could go on everyone saw the sky get darker, as energy from the sun went to the pillar of red energy. As everything started shaking Knuckles glared at the fatter male again."Damn it you were lying this whole time about stopping it Egg-Man? I knew you were setting us up!"

Robotnik had his eye twitch before he took a deep breath and stroked his mustache." I know your stressed but remember we disabled the shields, not the generators for the weapons! We can only hope that they are close to doing their part. Well, I can check at least. Let's see, oh? Odd…it does say that the mechanisms in those Oscillators are destroyed. But at the same time, some other force is causing the power to still move."

"What? How is that possible?" Shadow grit out angerly. His response from the scientist in the room started with a sigh." If I had to guess, someone's using magic to keep the gears moving even after the systems got destroyed. Which means, the boss running the place has some tricks up his sleeves, or in his head, or whatever. Well, magic's still not my forte but we better help smash a few things, around right?"

"Now that's what I'm talking about! C'mon this is not done yet! No matter how many parts there are to this Battle-World, can't let this Beyonder freak blow up the entire universes!"

"You got that right Knuckle head, all my research is still in it!" Robotnik threw out dryly." Alright, calculating the best path. Go right team Eggman!"

Shadow, Rouge, and Knuckles all rolled their eyes as they charged in the direction, hoping all of their efforts were not in vain.

Alas to see if its in vain or not we will have to wait a bit longer. Sorry, I over estimated how long the fights would be, and to not have the chapter be to massive I decided to split the chapter. Tune in next time to see how Samus, James, Luke and Ben Skywalker and the others overcome their challenges in Chapter 221: Crucible of the Divine Bloodlines! For real this time, promise !

Authors Notes: Lets see, sorry again for the misleading, just did not want to rush any of the fights so figured it would be best to divide them. Lets see, while I made up Brevon's Infinite state, its also a nod from Infinite, the bad guy in Sonic Forces. The team up between Sonic and Llaic was also inspired by Forces, but she has much better design then what they have for the create a character so far in that game, dear god they look worst then 1930 Disney cartoon's the hell you thinking Sega?

Also, may have been random to have Skull Face rant but, just wanted to show how even for Metal Gear they made that dude as melodramatic as they could get.

Ah well, that should be it for now, hope you like the chapter despite it being cut up and till next time.
