Issue 17: CSP Hive
Skyworld
"Ow!"
"Stay still. I'm almost done." Spidey replied to Pit as he repairs his broken bones using the matter manipulative properties of the Dream Stone. After barely surviving the Turbo Metal Sonic onslaught, the wounded D-Avengers take some time to recuperate in a living room area while they think of a strategy to counteract the Masters of Evil's Aurum invasion.
"That Metal Sonic really did a number on us. I am so glad the Dream Stone can heal bones." Pit said.
"Maybe that's why the Masters of Evil want it so badly: Free healthcare." Spidey joked.
Pit chuckled from Peter's clever little joke. "Their medical bills must be through the roof." He joked, making Peter laugh as he's done healing Pit's bones.
Meanwhile, the other D-Avengers, after their wounds have been bandaged, laze around the couches as Palutena walks in to check up on them. "How are you guys feeling?" She asked them.
"We're good. We had worse days." Sonic smiled, joking around to lighten the moody mood.
"I'm glad. You were all lucky you survived. I was so tempted to actually assist you in the battle when I saw how dire it became." Palutena replied.
"There was no need. We like a challenge." Sonic said.
"Speak for yourself! We almost died!" Weiss shouted at him.
"No pain, no game, princess." Sonic smirked at her.
"This isn't a game! The whole world is being invaded!"
"We stopped alien invasions before. No need to get all stress out." Sonic replied, keeping a cool level-head that will forever annoy the ice queen.
"Not when everything is being robotized!"
"Which reminds me," Lucina starts talking, turning to Palutena. "How much of the earth has been transformed?"
The goddess of light projects an image of the whole planet, with a good chunk of it mechanized. "About 42%, I would say, and it continues to escalate by the hour."
"That isn't good." Spidey spoke up. "If this keeps up, it'll be impossible to reverse the process. I'm also worried about those "C.S.P.s" Metal talked about. I talked to Reed Richards. He and the other Fantastic Four, as well as the Secret Avengers, can confirm the Masters of Evil have been performing experiments cloning the Chaos Stone. They've already destroyed the factories where dozens were manufactured, which leaves us the one the Aurum's producing. Still, it's crazy. Duplicating an Exo Stone? What is wrong with Doom?"
"The Masters of Evil must be feeling REALLY sore we're beating them in this Exo race. Why else would they clone the only one they have?" Sonic remarked as Ero appears.
"This is becoming quite a dilemma." Ero said. "Multiple of these "C.S.P.s". In their prototype stage alone, could very well allow them to control the whole universe. If they finalize the project, they'll be absolutely unbeatable."
"All this because of a human, who's so power-hungry, he would risk destroying creation itself." Palutena remarked.
"I wouldn't consider Victor von Doom an "ordinary human"." Ero replied.
"I know. Have you seen his face?" Spidey quipped.
"Nonetheless, until we locate the Aurum's primary base of operations, destroying their fleet is our primary objective. I can faintly sense through the Web that's where we might find the source of these C.S.P.s." Ero said.
"Then let's go! We don't have a second to lose!" Pit declared as he activates his Boom Orbitars.
"Agreed, young one. Let's move out!" Ero ordered.
Later…
BGM-Kid Icarus Uprising OST-Aurum Hive
"We're heading out!" Weiss said as the team rushes toward the mission door. As soon as it opened up, the teens scream as they are forcibly sucked out the door and into the skies.
"Well that was fun." Sonic quipped.
'The Aurum may have been weakened, but not defeated. We need to destroy their fleet.' Palutena reminded the heroes of their mission.
"Understood! That fleet's going down!" Pit replied as they approach the Aurum Battleships, some consisting of the Egg Fleet but more futuristic, and with exposed weak points.
'Take out those green targets, Avengers!' Palutena advised as they proceed with her advice, destroying the weakspot that blow some of the hundreds of ships out of the sky.
"Some of these looks like Eggman's old battleships." Sonic noticed.
'Not just battleships. There are cruisers, destroyers, kayaks…'
"I doubt they have any kayaks." Spidey replied, dodging dozens of lasers firing right at him while shooting down Aurum Grimm Lancers and Tribytes.
'But there ARE a lot of them. It might be best to get you out of there.'
'Now why would you want to do that? Where you pinheads see adversity, I see opportunity.' Hades chuckled in.
"Hades!" Pit exclaimed.
'Don't forget about me.' Loki intervened as well.
"We wish!" Weiss said after striking down a few Claxis.
'Back on topic, this battleship looks like it could use a good home.' Hades said. 'Now's your chance, minions! It's lootin' time!' He ordered his hoard of Monoeyes to swarm an Aurum Sawfish battleship, stealing everything they could find.
'Nice catch, Hades. Too bad none of them was those C.S.P.s. They could've prove useful.' Loki said.
"If you have no soul." Sonic muttered.
'The Underworld certainly is enthusiastic when it comes to thieving.' Palutena said as a large menacing sphere comes to view. 'Up ahead is where the battleships are being hatched.'
"Hatched? You mean built, right?" Spidey replied.
'Sorry. I keep thinking of the Aurum as a bee colony. And if their smaller troops are drones, their ships are killer bees. If we want to take down their fleet, we need to target the source of the problem. It should also be where the C.S.P.s are being created.' Palutena said.
"Ugh, I just hope there's no Aurum queen…" Pit muttered as they confront a large squadron of Aurum Egg Flapper. They shoot down as many as they could until the rest was shocked down by a powerful lightning storm coming from an unlikely ally.
"Hey heroes. Need a little help." A voice belonging to lightning charmer, Phosphora zaps in the vicinity of the heroes.
"You're Phosphora! Why are you here to help us?" Lucina asked her.
"Mistress Viridi thought you might need my help again so Spidey won't yell at her again." Phosphora replied.
"Then she got to stop acting like a child." Spidey said.
'I CAN HEAR YOU!' Viridi yelled in.
"Oh, hey kid. What's up?" Spidey joked around with the goddess of nature, making her furious.
Phosphora chuckles as she flies next to Peter, making him a bit uncomfortable. "At least this way you won't forget about our deal." She smirked at the nervous web-slinger, who promised to go out on a one-time date in exchange for her assistance against Metal Sonic.
"What is she talking about?" Pit asked.
"The end of my life." Spidey depressingly joked, causing his friends' heads to tilt in confusion, though Weiss seems to have a good hunch what she's talking about judging from her sly smirk. His spider-sense then rings up to several large green meteors raining from the sky, forcing everyone to dodge out of the way, "Meteors?!"
"No one didn't tell us about this forecast!" Sonic quipped as he jumps over the green meteors.
'Actually, those are also Aurum troops.' Palutena confirmed. 'According to my Celestial Super Scanner, they're "Rozzes".'
"Your...Celestial Super Scanner?" Pit questioned.
"Sounds as made up as your age, ma'am." Phosphora quipped.
'Why are you here again?' Palutena replied, clearly irritated by the age jokes.
'Focus, child.' Ero calmly told Palutena, though it doesn't help he still called her a child, which got on her nerves.
"Is that how you know the names of the enemies?" Lucina asked.
'Well, you can't actually pronounce Aurum names, so I took a few creative liberties.' Palutena answered.
"Probably would've been in gibberish." Weiss remarked.
"Or Japanese." Spidey added.
'Hey! Am I the only one paying attention here? Look!' Viridi directs everyone to Aurum-like Monoeyes and Miks approaching them.
"What? They're just Aurum troops." Sonic remarked as they easily take them down.
'Aurum troops that are rip-offs of Underworld enemies!'
"It's not too different from the Aurum Badniks and Aurum Grimm we've already faced." Sonic replied.
'I gotta hand it to them though. Those are some pretty decent knockoffs.' Hades said, complimented the Aurum Underworld monsters before the heroes completely destroy them and move on towards the Aurum Hive.
'These things devour planets, or robotize them, and copy enemies? Ugh. Lowlifes!' Viridi said.
'So maybe the Treasure Boxes and Exo Tanks were also copies.' Palutena said.
'Can't say for sure.'
'Full disclosure here: the Mimicuties were courtesy of YOURS truly.' Loki grinned as they took down Aurum Buzz Bombers.
"It WAS you!" The D-Avengers and Pit angrily responded.
'And me too.' Hades grinned as he hears their irritated growls. 'What? Don't like presents, Pitty Pat and Avengies?'
"Avengies? Sounds like a cereal box." Spidey quipped.
'You do look like a VERY sticky marshmallow.' Hades punned to Spidey as he licks his mouth.
"Nah. I hear the Hawkeye marshmallows are better. "Shotty", but better. But don't try the Hulk ones. They give a SMASHING stomach pain." Spidey quipped.
"Can you get shot, please?!" Weiss retorted, tired of Peter's puns as she shoots down Aurum Fire Wyrms.
'We're nearing a floating island. You can hide from the Aurum fleet by taking a lower route.' Palutena suggested.
"We're on it." Lucina said as they dove down with a bunch of Aurum Monoeyes following them.
"Come and get some!" Sonic grinned, working with Phosphora to destroy the techno-Monoeyes as a huge enemy ship, an Aurum Cruiser, crashes in with a volley of highly destructive laser beams.
'Uh-oh! They've sent a destroyer in! They're destroying themselves to get to you!' Palutena said.
"They must really want our autograph." Sonic quipped as they avoid the lasers.
'I have to hand it to the Aurum. They don't fool around.' Viridi remarked as they soon flew up, noticing more battleships with green weakspots as they proceeded to fire at them. 'None of these battleships seem to have a helm.'
'And I'm not detecting any life-forms in the ships either.' Palutena noticed.
'Someone MUST be controlling them from inside that hive. Perhaps it's Metal Sonic again.' Viridi wondered.
'Weeee aarrrre from outerr spaaaaaace...' Hades joked.
'Yes, yes, you're hilarious.' Palutena said sarcastically.
"Man, look how poorly design these ships are, having their weakspots exposed for us to destroy." Spidey jokingly said as he takes down another battleship.
'Thank my user-friendly interface.' Palutena smiled.
"Are you saying that you exposed the ships' weak spots?!" Pit asked.
'I attached large markers to the ships' exteriors that connect to their engines. In less technical terms, I used my power of weak-point exposure!' Palutena explained.
'Look at that: You're being useful.' Ero stoically joked.
'Like you're doing anything!' Palutena retorted.
'When the situation becomes dire will the legendary power be reborn.' Ero implicitly replied, really referring to the Finalized Totem Forms: Black Ace and Red Joker, though the way he said it confused Palutena.
'Wha? You're making no sense.'
'Just focus on taking down the Aurum fleet!' Ero replied as the Avengers approach a massive, spherical structure.
"This looks to be the Aurum Hive. But where's the entrance?" Spidey asked.
"What?! No entrance?!" Pit remarked.
'It doesn't look like it.' Palutena said.
"Can't we just bust through?" Sonic asked.
"Don't think it'll work." Phosphora answered.
"Why's that?" Lucina asked.
'There's a shield to protect the ships on their way out.' Viridi said.
"And I can't seem to scan for a weakpoint. Now what? Do we just go home and order a pizza?" Spidey joked.
"I am pretty hungry." Pit remarked.
'I DO have a coupon…' Palutena said.
"CAN YOU GUYS FOCUS?!" Weiss yelled.
'You guys have more pedestrian tastes than I expected.' Viridi remarked.
'Don't curse the darkness! Light a candle!' Loki sinisterly spoke up. 'When freaky aliens give you lemons, make freaky alien lemonade! HIT IT, HADES!'
'YOU GOT IT!' Hades yelled as he throws the Aurum Sawfish battleship his minions previously hijacked and crashes it into the Aurum Hive.
Everyone takes a moment to stare at the stunning pitch the lord of the underworld pulled off. "Oh…Guess that's one way to do it…" Spidey remarked, stunned like his friends and Phosphora.
'That. Was. Awesome.' Viridi said in amazement.
'Now just pass through the ship to enter the Aurum Hive.' Palutena advised.
'It's like a straw stuck in an orange.' Viridi said, still in amazement of such a godly feat.
"Commencing Operation Hive Infiltration!" Pit yelled as they fly through the battleship's interior, which so happens to be engulfed in flames, much to their dismay, "Hot hot hot hot hot hot HOT!"
"What's the matter? Not hot enough for ya?" Spidey joked since he's wearing cool armor that protects him from the heat.
"OH SHUT UP!" Pit yelled as they find a safe, and cool place to land.
BGM End
Aurum Hive
BGM-Kid Icarus Uprising OST-In the Aurum Hive
The D-Avengers, Pit, and Phosphora land safely inside the Aurum Hive, putting away any Gear and armor as they walk forward. "Now that we're in the Aurum Hive, we're on step closer to stopping their fleet." Pit said.
"Right. If we shut down the hive's power generator, it should also destroy the C.S.P.s being created here." Spidey replied as they enter a room, which triggers the alarm.
"Uh-oh." Lucina remarked.
'Who dares enter this facility unannounced?' A monotone, robotic sounding voice suddenly speaks throughout the area.
"Huh?" Spidey responded as a holographic screen showing Neo Mecha Spider-Man in his sinister glory floating in front of them.
'It would seem we're having a bug problem. Greetings, my "inferior" double, as to you, Avengers.' Mecha Spidey greeted his organic adversaries.
"Mecha Spider-Man?" Spidey responded, looking surprise.
'Neo Mecha Spider-Man.' The robot clone corrected his organic counterpart on his new name.
"What is with this "Neo" trend everyone's taking?" Pit asked.
'Silence!' Mecha ordered Pit. 'I know why you're here, and I cannot allow you to succeed. I command you, Aurum! Dispose of the meat!' He commanded his Aurum troops, most consisting of Aurum Octobots, to attack the heroes.
"We just had to set off the alarm, didn't we?" Sonic asked while repeatedly hopping over the Octobots' lasers.
"Yup!" Phosphora replied while shooting a beam of electricity through a large Octobot.
'Maybe you tripped their smell sensors.' Viridi chuckled while Lucina strikes a Sio. 'Though the Aurum probably use more high-tech ways of detecting intruders. Like...a brain-wave scanner or something.'
'No, it was probably their smell.' Palutena joked.
"Mostly Spidey!" Weiss quipped as she strikes lightning at another Octobot.
"I blame the Lizard! He always brings our fights to a sewer!" Spidey quipped while vaulting over an Octobot's laser blasts.
'Disgusting!' Viridi said in disgust as the webhead webs up the Octobot, then throws it at the remaining couple so they can proceed to an elevator.
'The ship the Underworld Army hijacked was really in rough shape.' Palutena noticed.
'Well, yeah. They DID crash it straight into the hive.' Viridi said. 'But on the bright side... In doing so, they lost some of their own troops AND took out some Aurum forces.'
'I AM thankful for that bit of good news.' Palutena smiled.
'Um, you're welcome?' Hades responded, not knowing how to really respond to that, continuing to watch the heroes brave their way through the Aurum Hive, arriving at a room with jump pads and electrically-charged floor panels.
'The power generator is somewhere deep inside the Aurum Hive.' Palutena said as they take down more enemies.
'I'm against this place. It's so cold and sterile.' Viridi said.
"So it's like Weiss on one of her moods." Sonic joked, chuckling, then receiving a painful reminder to the head not to make fun of Weiss.
"Oh, I don't know, It's nothing a lava lamp and a few posters couldn't fix." Pit said.
"If you have the money for it." Phosphora joked.
"N-No. I don't really get paid." Pit sheepishly smiled as they travel across a narrow, collapsible path, then confronts a weird Aurum surrounded by green energy orbs.
"What's that enemy?" Lucina asked as they confront it.
'It's called a Biota. You can send its shots back at it with melee attacks.' Palutena advised them, making it easier to destroy it so they can proceed into a room with large, rotating, purple fan blades.
"What do we have here?" Spidey asked.
'They seem to be fans made of lasers. Hm. Not the most effective method of cooling.' Viridi said.
"But they're a pretty effective method of hurting. Specifically, hurting me." Pit said as they carefully navigate through the purple blades.
'Good thing you're so quick and nimble!' Palutena said as they successfully enter a room where Peter's spider-sense warns them of an incoming tank-like vehicle driving on a set track.
"What was that?" Pit asked.
"Some sort of vehicle. It looks like it runs on a loop." Peter replied.
'As a disclaimer, your insurance doesn't cover getting run over by alien trains.' Viridi said.
"Outer space IS a bit out of the coverage area." Spidey joked as they quickly went through the outer safe areas before the train arrived. In one of those safe areas, they walk through a door to find a room with an alien-like computer, but that's the least interesting thing they've found.
"Whoa. What is this…?" Phosphora asked, stunned as they look behind an impenetrable glass window to bear witness to the largest C.S.P. factory ever created, librarying tons of newly developed C.S.P.s on a shelf for further testing.
"It's a WHOLE library of C.S.P.s!" Pit exclaimed.
"This looks to be where they're creating the C.S.P.s, but there's no way in." Weiss remarked.
"It doesn't matter," Spidey said as he plugs in his USB drive and starts hacking the computer nearby. "Like I said, this place will all go in smoke when we blow up the hive's generator."
"What are you doing?" Pit asked him, wondering why he's hacking a computer.
"Downloading any useful information that'll help me reverse the robotization on the planet." Spidey answered.
'Wait! Really?!' Viridi asked, a little shock.
"Yup. And done," Spidey said as he unplugs his USB. "That took a little longer than I wanted. Security's tight. Good thing it pays being Tony Stark's intern. Okay, not really." He muttered. "Alright. Onward!" He ordered to continue the adventure, exiting the room taking an elevator down to a room with a Hot Spring.
"Pit! A hot spring!" Sonic told his ecstatic angel friend.
"Sweet!" He smiled, rushing over for a quick bathe in the sweet healing pool.
'Hold on. This is an Aurum hot spring. You don't know if it's dangerous.' Viridi told him.
"Dangerous? Come on now. I've spent this entire story getting shot at. Plus, if Aurum hot springs are so deadly, why didn't you warn me in the last issue?" Pit replied after exiting the pool.
'Because that's Palutena's job, not mine.'
"And we all know how good she's doing at it." Sonic joked as they confront another squadron of enemies.
'I will beam you up to the SUN if you don't zip it!' Palutena retorted, making Sonic laugh as they finish off the room of enemies, proceeding into a new room with a rotating floor and an Aether Ring.
'Look, an Aether Ring.' Palutena noticed just as Pit pilots it.
'It's probably another cheap Aurum knockoff.' Viridi said.
"I don't care! If it works, I'm gonna use it! I'm an angel! And this is how we get things done!" Pit replied as he mows down enemies with its blaster.
'No, that's how scavengers get things done. Are you a buzzard, Pit?' Viridi teased.
'Now, now, I think we can all agree that Pit's not a buzzard. Though I have seen him eat some questionable things off the ground...' Palutena noticed.
"Floor ice cream gives you health!" Pit quickly defended himself.
"Or a disease." Spidey quipped, making Pit rethink life choices as they enter a narrow hallway with moving blocks, safely navigating through it down a hole in the ground, to a hallway with doors.
'You fools have no idea what you're getting yourselves into.' Mecha Spidey spoke up through the speakers.
"Enlighten us." Spidey quipped as they collect Aurum hearts.
'What's to enlighten? Each step you take is a step closer to your destruction, and to us achieving ultimate power.' Mecha replied.
'Are you referring to the Exo Stones, or your pathetic counterfeits?' Palutena asked.
'What a ridiculous question from the goddess of light.' Mecha insulted her.
"Whatever your evil plan is, it won't work! We're gonna put a stop to it here and now!" Pit declared.
'Put a stop to what? You don't know the full extension of our plan.' Mecha sinisterly replied with a foreboding message as the heroes proceed to a massive, spacious room to grind on rails.
"Can't believe this thing actually fits inside the Aurum Hive." Lucina remarked.
"It is quite expansive." Phosphora said.
Spider-Man's trusty spider-sense picks up tons of Aurum enemies inbound. "Watch it! We have enemies!" He informed his friends for battle.
'All troops! Eliminate the Avengers at once! Don't let them near the generator!' Mecha ordered his robot army to swarm the heroes, giving them a lot of choices who to take down, but it quickly becomes too much for them to handle.
"So…many…enemies!" Pit complained as they quickly gather their bearings to take down more Aurum troops, but to their surprise, some Forces of Nature troops, particularly the Bladers, came in and helped them out.
"More backup." Phosphora smiled.
"From the Forces of Nature?" Pit remarked in confusion.
'Don't get the wrong idea, Pit. I'm not here to help you. It's just in my best interest to keep you and the humans alive for now!' Viridi said.
"First you send Phosphora and now this? You're starting to change now, aren't ya?" Spidey grinned, noticing Viridi's becoming a little nicer to them after the scuffle with Metal Sonic.
'Looks like Little Miss Cactus has grown a soft spot for you guys.' Palutena said.
"We knew our charms would catch on eventually." Sonic smirked.
'Shhh! Keep your voice down! People are listening! I'm definitely NOT doing this to help you.' Viridi quickly denied.
'Oh, really.' Palutena said, not buying it, as is the others.
"Hmph. Well, we're not here to help you either, so THERE!" Pit replied.
'Aaaaauugh! You two are SO ANNOYING! This is why I kept trying to kill you! In fact, I've been wondering! Why didn't you use the Dream Stone to wish away this whole invasion?!' Viridi shouted.
"We were just waiting for you to turn over a new leaf." Spidey punned, making everyone but a frustrated Viridi laugh.
'I HATE YOU!' She yelled from the top of her lungs as they grind to a room with the remaining Aurum troopers.
'It's their last line of defense.' Palutena said.
"I dedicate this beatdown to the honor of our precious planet!" Pit declared.
"Here, here!" Spidey replied as they finish off the last room of enemies before they enter the Aurum Generator room.
BGM End
Aurum Generator Chamber
'That's the Aurum Hive's power generator.' Palutena informed the heroes as they enter its spacious chamber filled with multi-colored grind rails and the giant yellow generator floating in the center.
"It's as bright as the sun!" Pit said.
"Not even the Arc Reactor is this powerful. It must be because of the C.S.P.s." Spidey commented, comparing this fearsome reactor to Tony Stark's.
BGM-Transformers Devastation OST-Devastator
Before they take action, the Web-slinger's internal warning sensors warns him of something, or someone crawling around the large generator, revealing to be Neo Mecha Spider-Man on his multi spider-legs. "You fools will not leave here alive when I'm through with you!" He stated as he pierces his legs deep into the generator, absorbing the artificial ego energy used to sustain it as his red mechanical body changes into a menacing golden color, granting him his own "Super State" as he flies into the air, "All hail the Masters of Evil!"
"Pit! You, Weiss, and Lucina destroy the generator! The rest of us will take him!" Spidey ordered as he and Sonic materializes their armor and Extreme Gear respectively and flies with Phosphora to attack Mecha Spidey, leaving the rest to grind on rails to destroy the generator.
"Here I come, rustbucket!" Spidey taunted as he flies at top speed to collide multiple fists that barely scratch Mecha's upgraded power. Mecha quickly protrudes a waldoe and leaves a large mark on Pete's armor before brutally stabbing him in the chestpiece, flinging him away in time to catch a blue fastball with his waldoes. He webs up Sonic and twirls him at Phosphora, who catches the blue blur in an electric field, charging him up with electricity to blast him back at Mecha, pinning him to a wall for Sonic to repeatedly homing attack him.
Irritated, he flips upward to the wall to avoid Sonic's latest attack, webbing him to the wall before easily avoiding Phosphora's lightning zips to hurt him, using his built-in spider-sense to tell where she's gonna appear next then backhands her for a roundhouse kick. "I will not go down as easily as Metal Sonic." He proclaimed until he was warned of Spider-Man's return, who's now in his Aura Arachnid Mode and proceeds to teach Mecha a lesson with a lightning-fast Maximum Spider. Before the last blow was struck, Mecha managed to grab Spidey's leg and throws him to the wall and pins him there by the throat. "Doctor Octavius will be pleased when I inform him of your destruction." Mecha said, cold-heartedly.
"Tell him when I reach old age." Spidey quipped, springing his aura spider-legs from the walls behind him to strike at Mecha, then shrouds himself as the head of a Man-Spider to swallow the robot duplicate and spit him away while Phosphora flies up to Spidey.
"Shall we try the same trick as last time?" She asked him, planning to use the same tactic they did against Metal Sonic.
"Doubt it'll work a second time." Spidey replied before they both launch a powerful fist that Mecha easily catches and throws them away. Mere seconds later, he was caught in Sonic's boost trail as he rides along the walls.
"Try to break out of this, tin butt!" Sonic taunted as he was caught by the robot spider's mechanical legs and blasted to the other two's vicinity. "This is getting painful." He said.
"How are we gonna beat him?" Phosphora asked.
"We're not. Just hold him off a little longer until the others are done." Spidey answered before they continue their fight with Neo Mecha Spider-Man.
While Spidey's squad contend with Mecha, Pit's squad has been focusing their attention destroying the Aurum Generator. "So we should focus attacking the center?" Lucina asked Palutena as she switches rails.
'Yes, and don't forget you can switch between grind rails as you see fit. Weapons have different ranges, so feel out how far the rails are from the generator.' Palutena said as the generator's defense mechanism kicks in and unleashes four giant energy tentacles.
"Huh?!" Pit exclaimed.
'Well, this is unexpected.' Palutena said as the three quickly switches from the crumbling rails to avoid getting smacked by the tentacles.
"No doubt Mecha gave the thing octopus arms because of his master." Weiss said as they continue avoiding rails and attacking the core whenever possible.
Just then, when nobody needed him most, "HAHAHAHAHA", Pyrrhon flies in.
"Pyrrhon? What are you doing here?" Pit asked.
"Looks like you could use a hand there, little angel and humans. The heroic hand...of justice!" Pyrrhon said.
"We appreciate the help, Pyrrhon, but we're fine on our own." Lucina replied.
"Try my pryoweaponry on for size!"
"He's not listening!" Weiss retorted as the flame god fires his flames on the generator, thinking it'll instantly destroy it, but judging from the increase in temperature and how its tentacles can now shoot laser blasts, the complete opposite happened.
"That's…odd." Pyrrhon said.
"You idiot! You supercharged it!" Spidey shouted while he's fighting his robot clone. "Don't you know adding heat to heat makes it hotter? Basic science!"
"HA HA HA HA HA! That is to say, oops. My bad." Pyrrhon replied.
""My bad"? That's all you have to say?" Pit replied as he attends to the increase in danger levels.
"No. I have one more message to impart to you. I wish you all luck! You're going to need it. And with that, I must leave you! Until we meet again!" The Sun God said before flying away.
"You could at least help US out!" Sonic shouted as he NARROWLY avoids Mecha's powerful laser shots.
"Arrgh! What an idiot!" Weiss said as Pyrrhon continues to get on their nerves.
Even though Pyrrhon made the situation a lot harder than necessary, Pit's team push past all odds and give it all they got in destroying the generator. As they notice the generator is on the verge of destruction, Spidey's team decides to finish their fight with Super Mecha Spider-Man. "This is the end!" Mecha declared.
"Got that right, faker!" Spidey smirked as Sonic and Phosphora circle around the robot to form a gigantic electric hurricane, making it impossible for escape. Mecha takes his chances and overcharges his power with a powerful blast that extinguishes the hurricane just as Aura Spidey flies down with a Planetary Kumodama in his hand. "Planetary Kumodama!" He roared.
As Mecha's about to counterattack, he was caught off-guard when the attack and Spidey was revealed to be an afterimage that passes through him. "What?!" He exclaimed, then completely caught off-guard by a roaring drop-kick to the head by the real Spider-Man, smacking the robot directly at the generator just as Pit's team lands the final blow, causing it to start blowing up with Mecha for the ride. "GAAAAH!" He screamed in pain as he powers down. "This isn't over!" He proclaimed as he teleports out of the base.
BGM End
"And pulverazed!" Pit exclaimed.
'Nice. Now let's get you out of there!' Palutena said as she teleports the Avengers and Pit away while Phosphora teleports back to Viridi's.
Outside, Pyrrhon watches from a distance as the Aurum Hive falls apart and implodes on itself, taking its C.S.P. factory and its whole fleet with it. "And now on to the Aurum Brain…In that Death Egg or whatever." He said as he folds his arms.
BGM-Kid Icarus Uprising OST-Opening
Spider-Man: Hey, it's Spider-Man. Now we have one thing left to do: Raid the Death Egg and destroy the Aurum Brain.
Sonic: Easier said than done. Look! It's Grimadoom!
Spider-Man: Why am I not surprised? His power easily puts Palutena and the other gods to shame.
Pit: So how do we beat him?
Sonic: Leave it to me! I'll surpass the gods and take him down!
Spider-Man: And if that isn't enough, Ero and I have your back!
Next time on D-Avengers: God Mission:
Strength of Mortals
Pit: Amazing! You guys are completely strong now!
KFX Here: Next chapter, the debut of Sonic's new transformation using the Dream Stone and the return of the "Legendary Totem Berserker", Black Ace and Red Joker Spider-Man. For any of you wondering, I am following the same story chapters as the original "Kid Icarus Uprising" game, with obviously a few alterations and additions. So we're pretty much at the halfway point of this whole story.
Sanantx: I don't really plan on doing any What If storylines.
