A World on the Brink of Annihilation
Chapter Two
This will be the final preview chapter before Brawl comes out.

Cobra loaded his gun, and shot out numerous amounts of rays at Badge… the shots were similar to a Ray Gun, but with the consistency of a super scope… and it didn't look like it was about to run out of ammo. Badge, however, ran full speed at Cobra, dodging the rays back and forth, despite their rapid rate of fire. Badge then surrounded himself with vicious bolts of electricity, making himself a running lightning bolt, and dashed into the air at Cobra, who managed to sidestep it… barely.
'Huh… this guy's really fast… guess he isn't one of the legends for nothing…' Cobra thought, taking out another magnum… an exact twin of the one he already had out. "Time to really get down to business…" He smirked to himself, aiming at Badge, who had turned around to strike again. "EAT THIS!" Cobra yelled, charging up both of his guns, super scope style. Two huge green beams of energy shot out of the guns, and intertwined with each other. Badge didn't have time to veer out of the way, and smashed into it. For a while, the living lightning bolt pushed against the combined beams of energy… until the energy finally pushed Badge back, and also caused him severe damage. Cobra smirked, and twirled one of his guns around on his finger. "There aren't many things that can counter a fully charged double-beam blast… give it up… not even a legend can win… against that…"
…Meanwhile…
Obelisk roared, and shot out a large 12-foot tall fireball at Ben and Yureidoru. "I got this…" Yureidoru stated, holding out his hands. He then created a large psychic barrier around himself and Ben. The Fireball pushed on the barrier, but couldn't seem to make its way through. Both the barrier and the fireball soon after dissipated.
"Let me try something…" Ben stated, taking out a hookshot in one hand, and a boomerang in the other hand. He managed to fit the Boomerang onto the hookshot, and fired it. The hookshot, following the path of the boomerang, wrapped itself multiple times around Obelisk's neck. Yureidoru then used his psychic powers to help force Obelisk to the ground.
"That was sort of easy…" Ben stated.
About a moment later, Obelisk broke off the psychic hold that Yureidoru had him in, and shattered the sturdy hookshot chains that were tied around his neck.
"…Or not." Yureidoru sighed.
Obelisk roared, and began to shoot out equally as large fireballs… but at a machine gun pace.
"Oh shit." Ben stated.
Yureidoru grabbed Ben, and teleported out of the way of one of the gigantic fireballs. When he reappeared, he and Ben were nailed with another gigantic fireball. They then fell to the ground, covered in third degree burns.
…During all of this…
Harris and Gregor were still in their deadlock. "Give it up… you know I'm going to…!" Gregor began, but was interrupted by Harris using his other fist to punch him in the face.
Harris smirked, although it wasn't visible beneath his mask. "…You shouldn't be so confident in yourself… Show your actions before speaking next time…"
Gregor made a small chuckle. "Indeed. Let's dance." Suddenly, Gregor's cape turned into two bat wings, which he flew up in the air with. He then slashed his blade in Harris' direction… and a giant arc of buzzing blue energy, surrounded by a multicolored aura, flew at Harris.
Harris stood his ground, and held out his hands. Using both hands, he caught the sword beam before it hit him. Rocks began to uproot themselves, as Harris was gradually getting pushed backwards and into the ground. Then, Harris took a step forward, grabbed firm hold of the energy arc, and threw it back at Gregor, who flew around the energy. He then swooped down at Harris, with his sword ready. Harris stood his ground firmly, and got into a martial arts stance.
…Back to Cobra and Badge…
"Let's see how you like that again…" Cobra chuckled, charging up both of his guns. Badge was too injured from the last attack to be able to get out of the way in time… so he did the only thing he could do. Hold his ground.
"Heh… DIE!" Cobra exclaimed, shooting off both fully charged guns. Badge then unleashed a huge bolt of lightning at Cobra. The fully charged double beam blast collided with the Thunder attack, and they began pushing against each other.
However, it wasn't long at all before the thunder barged through the double blast, and headed toward Cobra, who grimaced.
"Damn you, Badge… it looks like I have no choice but to use THIS…"
…Back to Obelisk, Ben, and Yureidoru…
Obelisk laughed an evil deeper Bowser-esque laugh. "You two think you can take ME on? Don't make me laugh… I have enough power to overwhelm the four of you altogether… even the Gods would fear me… one of the few and mighty Giga Bowsers!!"
Yureidoru, covered entirely in harsh burns, got up and smirked. "You're full of yourself… I knew two of the gods… and they had powers you couldn't even come close to comprehending…"
Obelisk scowled. "Puny one! You'll pay for that!!" He boomed, inhaling, and then breathing out a huge stream of fire that was bigger than even he was. Yureidoru then tried to hold up a shield, but the shield melted upon contact, giving him about a millisecond to teleport out of the way. Ben saw this in advance, and pulled out his spare hookshot to get him to safety. Yureidoru warped to where Ben was.
"I have… a… plan." Yureidoru said, breathing heavily, still suffering from the burns.
"I'm… all… ears…" Ben said, equally as tired.
"Can you… distract him… and… get him… tired?"
"Hm… I'll try… what do you have… in mind…?
"You'll… know… when it… happens… Just trust me… and go." Yureidoru stated.
Ben nodded. "Alright. Wish me luck." He stated, before jumping off to where Obelisk was.
Yureidoru sighed. "Good luck…" He said, before falling asleep.
…Back to Harris and Gregor…
Gregor swooped down at Harris, at speeds above that of a fighter jet, thus breaking the sound barrier, and swung his blade. Harris, however, had the eyes of a hawk, and swung his fist just as Gregor swooped down.
Harris stood his ground, and Gregor landed about fifteen feet behind him. Harris had a large cut going across his chest, and Gregor had a dent in his golden mask.
Gregor didn't seem fazed though, and still held his calm composure… as did Harris.
"Hmph… so you really did earn your title as one of the legends…" Gregor stated, calmly, quietly, and a bit slowly. He then sheathed his silver blade, and threw it off to the side. "…It's been awhile since I've used… this…" He stated, pulling out another, larger, and much more dangerous looking sword. It was probably 2 inches wider than his old blade, but at the very least two feet longer. The handle was of a very ornate golden style, and the blade itself was a metallic white, with various runes on it.
"Meet my legendary weapon…" Gregor stated, swinging the blade around a couple of times, and then pointing it at Harris. "…Legendslayer." He said, as seemingly everything got silent. The rain became a downpour, and thunder boomed in the background, as lightning flashed in the sky.
…Back to Badge against Cobra…
Cobra grimaced as the gigantic horizontally fired thunderbolt approached him.
"Damn you, Badge… it looks like I have no choice but to use THIS…" Cobra exclaimed, whipping out a gigantic shoulder-mounted rocket launcher that was easily twice as large as he was. "Taste my legendary weapon… Ultima Cannon… FIRE!!" He yelled, as the rocket launcher started humming and glowing. Time seemed to slow, and just when the lightning was about an inch or two from his face… his cannon shot off a huge beam of energy, which was a good four times the size of the fully charged double beam blast. It swept over the thunderbolt without any effort, and continued on to attack Badge.
"AHAHA!!!! TASTE DEFEAT, RODENT!!" Cobra exclaimed, as the gigantic beam of energy was rapidly approaching Badge.
"Looks like I have no other choice…" Badge mumbled, charging up energy. "Legendary attack: Rexbolt!!" He exclaimed.
Suddenly, a humungous thunderbolt came down from the sky, and struck the ground in front of Badge. It was easily five times as large as his thunder attack. The bolt began to tear up the ground, as it moved toward Cobra and his Ultima Cannon shot.
…Then, there was a humungous explosion that drowned out all other sound…
…During that…
Ben ran to where Obelisk was. "Hey!" He exclaimed, causing Obelisk to turn around.
"Did I roast your little friend with that last attack? Puny insect… prepare to feel pain!!" Obelisk roared, bringing one of his great claws down upon Ben, who rolled out of the way. Obelisk then brought down a second claw toward Ben, who actually used his spare hookshot and boomerang to grapple around one of Obelisk's giant horns. Instead of trying to pull Obelisk to the ground, though, he pulled himself up to Obelisk's head. Obelisk then began to flail around wildly, so Ben had to use both of his hands to hold on for dear life.
The Giga Bowser rodeo went on for about ten minutes. Finally, Obelisk managed to grab Ben off his back, and throw him to the ground. "Any last words?" Obelisk roared, pinning Ben to the ground.
"I should be asking you that question." Yureidoru stated. Both Ben and Obelisk looked to the left, and saw Yureidoru floating there… without any burns or bruises whatsoever, he was in tip-top shape.
"What… how!?" Obelisk roared, his surprise allowing Ben to break free of his grasp.
Yureidoru smirked. "Rest… an ability which comes with some Mewtwo forms… only five to ten minutes of sleeping can heal all wounds sustained.
Obelisk growled. "Well, this time… I'll take you out in one shot!" He roared, breathing inward, and unleashing the same huge breath of fire he had used earlier.
Yureidoru smirked. "Well then… Legendary Attack: Soulslayer." He stated, as one of his arms became completely enveloped in black flames. Then, holding out his palm forward, he flew through the flames, which parted upon meeting the black fire on his hand. Within seconds, he reached the surprised Obelisk, and thrust his palm into Obelisk's forehead.
…All the while…
Gregor flew up into the air, with his new sword in hand, and Harris quickly jumped up after him. For awhile, they began to punch and slash at each other so inhumanly fast, that they were invisible blurs raging through the sky. Eventually, the high-speed brawl ended.
Gregor smirked. "You may have been able to survive the Ultra Sword Beam… but can you survive this?" He asked, swinging his legendary blade in an arc. It made a much larger arc of energy that was black instead of blue, and was surrounded by white energy.
Harris rolled to the side, but the beam of energy continued to follow him.
'…What…?!' Harris thought to himself, barely having enough time to dodge.
Gregor folded his arms. "The Ultra Sword Beam was one thing, but the Ultimate Sword Beam does not stop until it finds and eliminates its target…" He said, somewhat arrogantly. "…You're good as gone."
Harris began to think, while trying to dodge the lethal attack. 'Hm… it's becoming faster and faster, and a lot harder to dodge. Plus, it would probably inflict serious damage if I took the blow… however…' He thought, suddenly jumping up in the air, the ultimate sword beam merely inches behind him. He then jumped above Gregor, and the Ultimate Sword Beam was headed right for him.
"Clever…" Gregor stated, holding out his blade. The Ultimate Sword Beam made contact with the Legendslayer, and absorbed into it, vanishing in a flash of light. He then, still flying in midair, turned around to notice Harris was jumping down upon him, with one of his fists covered in completely red flames.
"Legendary Attack: Firebrand Fist of Judgment." Harris said, jumping down upon Gregor, who wasn't in the position to defend.
"How troublesome…" Gregor stated, not having the time to react.
All you could see if you were watching this was a large red streak of fire come down from the sky diagonally to the ground, creating a colossal explosion.
The rain then stopped… and the dark clouds moved away to reveal that it was early daytime.
…Somewhere nearby in the stormy desert…
The large explosion from the Ultima Cannon and the Rexbolt collision faded. When the dust cleared, Both Badge and Cobra were knocked out of their transformations, and into their human forms… however, they were both still conscious, yet fatigued.
Cobra was really a tall man who appeared to be 25, the optimal and age cap of the evolution. He had silver eyes and black hair. On his face was an expression that seemed to be etched from rock… very serious and sturdy. His size and shape was equivalent to that of his Snake form.
"A worthy opponent… but it ends here…" Cobra stated, taking out a gun. Even in his human form, Cobra was armed. "…This may be nothing compared to what I can do in my solid snake form… but it's more than enough to finish you off, Badge…"
…At the same time…
Obelisk roared in pain, although still in his transformation. He had a huge smoldering black mark on his forehead. "Dammit! How the hell can you hurt me!?!" He exclaimed.
Yureidoru's eyes widened. "…That didn't kill him…?" He asked.
"On the bright side, it actually hurt him…" Ben stated.
"Now you two will pay!! FEEL THE WRATH OF MY LEGENDARY ATTACK!!" Obelisk exclaimed.
"Oh boy." Yureidoru stated.
…I've run out of transition phrases…
The smoke cleared, revealing a large crater. Harris looked around… he couldn't find Gregor in sight. Suddenly, he felt the pain of a thousand slashes, and all at the same moment. Looking down, he then noticed that about a thousand cuts had appeared on his chest. Gregor then appeared in front of him, and turned around to face Harris. Half of his golden mask had been melted off, and he was burnt all over.
"Consider… that a warning. Your attack… took the last of energy out of both of us… we cannot go on for much longer without having to revert to our human forms." Gregor stated.
Harris sighed. "You know… you're the first one to be able to survive my legendary attack."
Gregor nodded. "And you're the first to ever live after looking upon Legendslayer. You're a worthy opponent… and truly one of the legends… let's call this a draw. We will meet again." He stated.
He then turned around, and whistled loudly, before flying off.
Cobra stared at Badge, and grimaced, hearing the whistle. He put his gun away. "Sorry, but I'll finish you off another time…" He stated, taking out a small sphere, he clicked it. He then began flashing bright colors, and disappeared.
Obelisk growled low. "You two got lucky… however, I will roast you in the inferno of the nine hells next time…" He boomed, curling up into his shell, and spinning off in the other direction, where Gregor was flying.
