To BlazingEdge: You might want to blame Kingdom Smash for that...

Comet Observatory (Super Mario Galaxy)

"Well, that escalated quickly." Boomerang Bro said.

"True, but at least we don't have to worry about the Shadow Queen again." Polari said as a gap opened up and then they walked out.

"Who needs to fly when you can use gaps?" Yukari smiled and then glanced at Flandre and Marisa. "Hades is going to pay for this..."

"Tell me about it." Pit muttered.

"By the way..." Yukari looked at them. "Before I lost control and Shadow Queen took control over me again...I know who Hades' followers are."

"We know of Ghirahim, that's all we know." Mario said. "And Pandora."

"Right, but there's also Zant, Bonetail, Antasma, Wingo..." Yukari folded her arms. "I swear, I feel like I'm forgetting someone but that's about it." She said as the others returned.

"Oh, so she's back." Link said.

"Yep." Yukari nodded as Polari looked at the screen.

"Okay, I'm seeing no activity in Deep Jungle Drift and Shadow Alley Play...but I AM seeing major activity in Hands-on Hall." Polari said and looked at Link and Zelda. "Zant is over there."

"Zant's back, huh?" Link said and unsheathed the Master Sword. "Time for round two..." He said as he walked in the gap that Yukari made as Zelda walked in as well.

"I'll keep an eye on Marisa and Flandre." Nitori said. "You guys go to the other areas."

"Alright." Reimu nodded.

World Mushroom-5: Zant Attacks

Hands-On Hall (Super Mario 3D World)

"Wow, it's a pretty place." Zelda said.

"Yeah, it is." Link said. "However...with Zant lurking around this place, he might screw this place up." He said as Zelda nodded at this as they walked around, looking for Zant.

"Where do you think he might be?" Zelda wondered.

"I dunno..." Link looked around, and suddenly he yelled in pain as Zelda turned around to see he was being shot at by Zant.

Zant's Theme (Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess)

"HOW DO YOU LIKE THAT?!" Zant yelled. "THAT WAS FOR KILLING ME LONG AGO!"

"Zant..." Link growled under his breath. "We meet again."

"It seems you brought your girlfriend with you. Now...do you think she's an actual good fighter?"

"Buddy, I've been in three Smash tournaments...don't underestimate me." Zelda said.

"Oh ho! You think you can intimidate me with that so-called Smash Bros tournament thing? Well, let's see if you can keep up with me!"

"You ready?" Link asked.

"Oh yeah." Zelda nodded as they got in battle positions.

Zant Battle (Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess)

Zant aimed his hands at the two of them and fired shots, but Link blocked with his shield and Zelda used Nayru's Love to knock them back. "Impressive..." He said but then teleported behind them and slashed the two of them away. "But not good enough!"

Link pulled out a bomb and threw it at him, but Zant jumped back. "Oh ho! Nice try with that bomb!" He exclaimed as it exploded and then he fired shots through the smoke, but when the smoke cleared...only Link was there. "Weren't there two of you?" He wondered, and then he got slashed through a wall...by a Phantom. "Ooof!" He exclaimed and then looked. "A Phantom?"

"Yeah, I control one of these guys." Zelda said as she controlled it again, slashing Zant several times but he kept dodging every slash.

"Now this is way impressive!" Zant exclaimed as he kept dodging. "Tell me, do you control Dark Nuts as well?"

"No..."

"Well you're not impressive at all! You're just a weak pathetic princess who only knows how to teleport, reflect and summon one of these bad boys." Zant taunted as Zelda's eye twitched as Link and the Phantom slashed Zant several times, but he blocked with his own swords and kept attacking, then impaled the Phantom, as it disappeared. "Ha! That Phantom was a weak war-" The phantom disappeared as a Din's Fire was inches away from his face. "-rior..." He said before getting hit by Din's Fire.

This is why I don't call her pathetic every time we spar... Link thought as he threw a boomerang at Zant as he was recovering from the Din's Fire.

"Oh joy, boomerangs..." Zant muttered. "What else do you got in those bottomless pits that you call pockets?" He wondered before seeing Zelda transform into Sheik. "That's new!" He said. "So you turned into a guy...I always knew you were a crossdresser." He said, which caused Sheik to scream in anger and threw needles at him, but he teleported. "Oh, I love pushing buttons!"

"Hey Zant, have you seen this?" Link asked, pulling out the Megaton Hammer.

"What in the...how are you holding that?!" He asked in shock, as Sheik slashed through him and then used Bouncing Fish on him, knocking him to Link who swung the hammer at him, making him go flying through several support beams holding Hands-on Hall.

"It's how I hold the Ball and Chain...I'm a lot stronger than you might think." He said, and then suddenly, Hands-on Hall was falling to the ground. "Uh oh..."

Zant got up. "I ain't done with you yet!" He exclaimed...and then the flagpole landed RIGHT on top of his head, knocking him unconscious.

"Heh, that took care of him." Link said as he used his shield to protect him and Shiek from the falling rubble and then Sheik collected the Green Stars, and then Zant got up, glaring at them.

"You may have won this round, but next time I will destroy the both of you...AND FIGURE OUT A WAY TO DESTROY THAT HAMMER!" He yelled as he disappeared.

"I still have a ball and chain that I haven't used for years." Link said as he put the hammer away as Sheik turned back into Zelda.

"I am so going to kill him the next time we encounter that jerk." Zelda said as she took the flagpole.

Meanwhile...

Medusa's Castle (Kid Icarus: Uprising)

"I told you..." Ghirahim said.

"Oh shut up." Zant said. "I didn't know he had that hammer with him." He muttered, glancing at Hades. "And what are YOU doing?"

"Oh, just reviving someone else to replace the Shadow Queen." Hades replied.

"And who might that be?" Zant asked.

"Ghirahim should know." Hades said.

"I don't."

"Then how about these two simple words: Skyward Sword." He replied as Ghirahim's eyes widened.

"No...you didn't."

"Yes, I did!"

"Alright, I give...who is it?" Zant asked.

"...Demise." Ghirahim replied.

"Who?"

"You'll find out later." Ghirahim said. "Hey...where'd Antasma go?"

"Oh, he went to give that Lucas kid nightmares. He'll be back." Hades replied.
"Ah." He nodded and then glanced at Bonetail. "And what about him?"

"I'll release him when the time is right..." Hades replied. "He'll be out and about when I figure out what world to send him in." He said. "I think I should send him to world Flower but what level? Hmm..."

"Boss Blitz?" Pandora chimed in.

"Nah...I was thinking Sprawling Savanna." Hades replied.

"Okay, that works too." Pandora said.

Sorry for the wait...I got distracted by Kingdom Smash...and every time I finish a chapter from that and go over to the next chapter in this story, my brain refuses to cooperate. Sorry!

...I was also distracted by Markiplier's Five Nights at Freddy's because I was curious what all the talk was all about...
