The Five Deadly Fates
"Take this!" Samus began open firing at Ridley with her power beam since it has the best rate of fire. This time, the shots seemed to be doing something. Ridley was flying backward to avoid the barrage of little shots, while Samus was leaping from rooftop to rooftop in hot pursuit.
"Agh! She's compromised my armor…This calls for new measures." Ridley said. Ridley fired six missiles from launchers on his back and they homed in on Samus.
"That's not going to work." Samus fired six missiles in succession at the missiles Ridley fired. The missiles canceled each other out, but while Samus was distracted, Ridley flew forward with his already incredible flying speed receiving a large boost from two boosters on his back. "Huh?" Ridley's wrists suddenly projected two curved laser blades and he slashed them both at Samus as she passed right by her. "AUGH!" The suit's shields took the brunt of that blow, but she still felt it.
"Not done yet!" Ridley quickly turned around and breathed out plasma balls from his mouth that bombarded Samus.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuggggghhhh…" Samus groaned as she stood her ground against this merciless barrage for a few seconds until she finally had the opening to boost quickly to the side with a charged arm cannon. "Eat this!" Samuys fired a fully charged plasma beam at Ridley.
"AAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!" Ridley shrieked in pain. Samus then got up close charging her power beam until she was right in front of Ridley's face. "Super missile!" KAAAAAAAAAABOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!! Samus back-flipped in mid-air to get away from Ridley's face just in time to avoid a swipe of Ridley's claws.
"Curse you hunter!" Ridley got low to the ground and breathed out a stream of plasma at Samus. Samus began running around Ridley to avoid the beam. Ridley was turning around just as quickly even as Samus was picking up speed due to the speed booster. Finally Samus jumped in to the air, paused, and then hurled herself at Ridley. Ridley quickly aimed the beam at Samus, soon Samus was desperately boosting against the beam of plasma and Ridley's beam was pushing back just as hard. Finally Ridley's beam took a surge forward and consumed Samus.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" She screamed as the beam burnt her over. Ridley decided not to take a chance and he thrust the point of his tail forward. It only struck hard rock ground and Samus ran out with her arm cannon charging up.
"Not that!" Ridley gasped.
"Oh yes it is!" Samus fired five missiles simultaneously out of her arm cannon and all five of them hit Ridley's chest.
"Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! Rah!" Ridley countered with a large ball of plasma aimed at Samus. Samus sidestepped to the left to avoid it only barely and got hit in the shoulder quite badly.
"AH!" Samus screamed as she grabbed the damaged shoulder.
The two stopped to catch their breaths for a second and stared at each other. This one thought went through both of their heads. "This is going to take a while."
Meanwhile…
"Hiyah!" Roy jumped at the Black Knight with his sword ready to strike. The Black Knight spun around and swung his sword just in time for his sword to meet Roy's.
"Hmmm… I can already tell, you have improved, but your strength is still not enough." The Black Knight said as unenthused as always.
"Grrrrrrrr… I've gotten more than good enough to beat you!" Roy shouted angrily. Roy jumped back and swung his sword mid-jump and sent more fireballs than ever at the Black Knight. The Black Knight on the other hands simply stood his ground and swung his sword at each fireball and caused them to disappear, he then quickly reached behind him with his sword arm and blocked the flaming tip of Roy's sword with the broadside of his sword without turning around.
"Oh please…" The Black Knight said disinterestedly. He quickly spun around and made a horizontal slash at Roy. Roy quickly swung his sword to block the slash before the two of them began perhaps the most intense swordfight imaginable. Each one of them slashing at each other with all their strength, each sword sending out waves of light and fire, that would have blown away anyone that was standing nearby, at each clash of the blades. Swinging high swinging low, dodging left and right, each sword clashing with intense ferocity.
The Black Knight slashed vertically, only for Roy to sidestep it and take a stab with his sword. The Black Knight caught the sword with his free hand and pushed it away from him, leaving Roy wide open for a counter-attack. "Die." The Black Knight made a horizontal slash at Roy. Roy let go of his sword and flipped over the Black Knight's slash. "What?"
"Eat this!" Roy kicked the Black Knight as hard as he could in the helmet, although the Black Knight didn't necessarily feel the kick, Roy's blow was hard enough to cause him to lose his balance temporarily. Roy took advantage of that moment to quickly grab his sword and take a slash at the Black Knight. "Hiyah! Yah! Hah! Raaaaaaaaahhh!" Roy did a four slash combo that ended with a powerful slash that left the surface of the Black Knight's chest area of the armor singed from the flames. "Had enough?" Roy said pointing his sword at the Black Knight.
"Well…" The Black Knight began to say clutching his chest. He hadn't felt this much pain since the war in Tellius. It was a still unusual sensation for him. "… Perhaps you are better than I gave you credit for." The Black Knight said shirking the burn and pointing his sword at Roy. "When you're ready."
"Hiyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!" Roy once again charged straight at him. This time when he took a slash, the Black Knight struck a defensive pose. The second Roy's sword connected, the Black Knight made a slash as quick as light that knocked Roy in to the air. The Black Knight followed this with a slash that caused a wave of light to fly from his sword and strike Roy, sending him flying backward with a cut and burn on his torso. "Augh… what the…?"
"You and that Marth swordsman aren't the only ones who have mastered counter-attacking." The Black Knight said.
"Heh… well, this only makes things more… INTERESTING!" On the strike of interesting, Roy leaped up and thrust his flaming sword forward and sent a blast of fire in the shape of a lance. The Black Knight didn't expect this and was nailed in the chest and went scooting backward several feet.
"Augh!" The attack didn't stop there, because Roy had once again resumed launching fireball after fireball. The Black Knight thrust his sword rapidly and sent out tips of light that canceled out each fireball.
Meanwhile…
Sheik and Orochimaru charged at each other as fast as each of them could. Sheik's senbon clashed with Orochimaru's kunai when they met, the two then proceeded to throw stabs, punches, and kicks at each other very rapidly. Spectators would only see blurs of the two at the speed they were attacking each other. Finally Orochimaru broke the struggle and ran backwards at incredible speeds and then began to run around Sheik kicking up a humongous cloud of sand as he ran.
"You're not the only one who can use the body flicker." Sheik said. Sheik began running as fast as she possibly could enhancing her speed with magic like a ninja would with chakra, also stirring up a huge cloud of sand as she ran around. Mid-run, the two would throw stuff at each other and quite naturally miss each other due to the high speeds they were moving at. Finally the two stopped running around and charged straight at each other. Sheik leaped over Orochimaru and threw senbon when she was behind his back, each of them attached with mini-paper bombs. "Die."
KAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!
"… It can't be that easy…" Sheik said. Suddenly the ground beneath her started to move. Sheik quickly leaped high in to the air. Orochimaru's arm came out of the ground and attempted to grab her, but to Sheik's surprise, Orochimaru's arm continued to stretch up and up and up until it finally grabbed her leg. "Not good." She said. Orochimaru's arm then jerked her toward the ground at sickening speeds. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!" Once Sheik hit the ground, a humongous cloud of smoke stirred up and Sheik's head was the only think above ground.
"Is this the only improvement you've made since our last battle?" Orochimaru asked while standing over Sheik twirling a kunai around his finger. "Oh well. That's too bad for you." Orochimaru then plunged the kunai in to her head, only for a puff of smoke to occur. "A substitution." Orochimaru smiled as the straw dummy in the ground came in to view through the smoke. Much to his surprise, the dummy had a paper bomb attached to it.
KAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!
The resulting explosion sent Orochimaru flying backward. While he was recovering from the explosion, he saw Sheik running full speed at him. Orochimaru quickly held out his arm. "Shadow snake!" Orochimaru's sleeve then seemed to erupt with numerous snakes that extended from his sleeve and toward Sheik, bearing their fangs.
"This won't stop me!" Each snake took a lunge at Sheik and attempted to bite her, but she would move to the side mid-run each time, however each snake was beginning to get harder and harder to dodge. Finally four snakes impacted her chest with the force of a really strong punch. "Agh!" Four more snakes sinking their fangs in to her skin followed this. "Auuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugh!" The snakes finally withdrew as Orochimaru appeared right in front of her and landed a strong right punch to her face, sending her sprawling backward.
"Hm hm hm hm hm hm. Those snakes were poisonous… I doubt that you'll last too long." Orochimaru said with that menacing smile of his. Then to his surprise, Sheik disappeared in a puff of smoke. "A clone?" Orochimaru then quickly jumped away from where he was standing to avoid getting grabbed by Sheik.
"When those snakes… punched me so to speak… I realized that I had to escape…" Sheik said, slowly crawling her way out of the ground with some effort. "This… fight… is just getting… started." Sheik said.
"Indeed it is." Orochimaru said, licking his lips menacingly.
Meanwhile…
The room where we left Link had, as we remember, a whole bunch of rocks around it. Suddenly, two very large boulders received perfectly clean cuts at their bases and about a second later, a sonic boom caused the cut off chunks to shatter in to millions of pieces. Link and Ramirez were standing in the middle of this pushing back and forth at each other with their swords. Link with a look of fiery determination, Ramirez with the usual emotionless face. "Hmph… your skills, don't seem to have improved too much." Ramirez said with the same cold tone of voice.
"I'll show you!" Link reached for a bomb and shoved it in to Ramirez's chest and quickly brought up his shield before the explosion.
"Ugh." Ramirez went skidding backward straight in to a large boulder. Ramirez quickly recovered and ran back toward Link in a blur. The two of their swords clashed and the two proceeded to slash at each other rapidly with their swords, sending sparks flying with each clash. Link made an upward vertical slash and back-flipped away from Ramirez while drawing his bow and charging it with a light arrow.
"Try this!" Link let the arrow fly, and once it hit Ramirez, it gave off a blinding glow of light. Immediately after that, Link threw a bomb at Ramirez and caused a large explosion that sent Ramirez flying through the air.
"Moons! Give me strength! Pyrulen!" Ramirez cast a spell that caused a massive fiery explosion around Link.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!" Link screamed from the burns. Ramirez didn't wait, the second he landed he ran back in to the smoke and thrust his sword forward. Link swung his shield to deflect Ramirez's sword to the side and he thrust his own sword at Ramirez. Ramirez barrel flipped to the side to avoid getting stabbed, then he quickly ran past Link, leaving a deep cut across his stomach area. "AUUUUUUUGH!!!"
"Hmph… too bad." Ramirez then ran back at Link again with his sword ready. To his surprise, Link swung his sword diagonally in a direction Ramirez didn't have time to avoid. Ramirez received a cut across his entire torso, followed quickly by…
"Spin attack!" Link spun around rapidly, further cutting Ramirez.
"Argh! Moons… give me strength, Eternum!" Ramirez then cast a spell while he was getting assaulted that caused many silver spikes to hover over Link before they all pierced him.
"Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh!" Link finally stopped the assault and jumped away. Both Ramirez and Link had several incisions on their bodies now from the merciless attacks they gave each other. Link pulled out a bottle of red liquid and had a drink of it, most of his wounds disappeared once he drank it.
"Moons, give me your blessing." Ramirez appeared to be in a desolate wasteland with a sliver moon glowing brightly over him, giving off a ray of light on the palm of Ramirez's hand, Ramirez then held the light in his hand close to his chest. Each of his wounds began disappearing faster than they would heal naturally, but still slower than Link's wounds healed. "I don't intend to lose…" Ramirez said fiercely.
"Neither do I!" Link said. The two once again readied their swords and resumed their high-speed swordfight against each other.
Meanwhile…
Mewtwo and Mithos flew around the room firing shadow balls and small beams of light at each other respectively. The shots were canceling each other out as they collided and none were getting through to their targets. "Damn, my beams should be stronger than his shadow balls, is this the full extent of someone's true power?" Mithos thought to himself.
"Alright then, now I'll try this on you." Mewtwo said suddenly disappearing.
"Where'd he teleport to?" Mithos asked. Suddenly Mewtwo reappeared behind him and fired a small shadow ball before teleporting again and firing another shadow ball at an angle toward Mithos. Mewtwo then started teleporting and firing shadow balls at the pace a machine gun would fire bullets, sending a barrage of shadow balls at Mithos from every direction. Mithos on the other hand was spinning around and blocking as many shadow balls with his hands as he could. "I… can't… stop them… all!" Finally one Shadow ball managed to get through allowing for the barrage to continue to wear him down. "Augh!" Mithos finally teleported in a flash of light.
"Grrrrrrrrr…" Mewtwo stopped, turned around and blocked a bright glowing fist with his own purple flaming hand before throwing a flaming punch at Mithos, who blocked that one in return. "Psybeam!"
"Aqua laser!" Mithos cast a water spell that canceled out Mewtwo's psybeam attack and sent them both flying backward, spraying water everywhere in a rain shower. "He fell for it, Thunder arrow!" Mithos then cast another spell that formed three electric orbs around him.
"Won't be that easy!" Mewtwo teleported away, but to his surprise, the orbs surrounded him again. "What?" Suddenly countless lightning bolts crashed on top of Mewtwo in rapid succession, sending thousands of volts of electricity through his body with each strike. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGHHHH!!!" When the attack stopped Mithos teleported in front of him and landed a glowing punch in his face. "Augh!" Mewtwo went flying in to a gold throne with red cushions and crushed it.
"Heh… that was Crocodile's throne… how fitting for a traitor's throne to be crushed by an inferior enemy like you." Mithos scoffed gleefully.
"Grrrrrr… Shadow Ball!" Mewtwo created a larger shadow ball and sent it flying at Mithos, who cancelled it out with bright light emanating from his palm. But Mewtwo had unexpectedly teleported behind him. "Psychic!" Mewtwo hit Mithos with a psychic blast that sent Mithos flying in to his own throne and knocking it over. "Heh… your own throne toppled by yourself? How do you like that?" Mewtwo asked with obvious superiority.
"I'm… not done… yet…" Mithos said angrily as he slowly ascended from his crushed throne.
"Neither am I." Mewtwo said. Mewtwo glowed with a fierce blue light while Mithos glowed with bright white light and the two charged at each other, locking hands when they collided.
Meanwhile…
Mario was hurrying up the stairs as fast as he could with all these thoughts running through his head. "I will-a defeat Kefka for-a all of-a you guys-a. Luigi… Peach… Bowser… DK… Wario… Yoshi… C. Falcon… Samus… Fox… Falco… Link… Zelda… Ganondorf… Y. Link… Nana… Popo… Kirby… Meta-Knight… Ness…Pit…Pikachu… Pichu… Mewtwo… Jigglypuff… Marth… Roy…Solid Snake… Master Hand… Crazy Hang… and everyone-a we met-a on our adventure up to-a this point-a, I won't-a let you-a down!!!" Mario thought as he continued running up the stairs. Suddenly a bunch of Space Pirates and creatures with six arms and a sword for each arm charged him from behind and from up the stairs.
"Get him!"
"Chaaaaaaaaaaaaarge!"
"You won't-a stop-a me!" Mario said with more determination than ever.
Meanwhile…
"Oh no… first-a all of-a those esper things-a, now this…" Luigi whined.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuugggghhh… what happe- OH MY GOSH!!! WHAT IS THAT!?!" Bowser shouted just now waking up.
"Pyooooooooo…" Kirby moaned as he woke up.
"None of you shall pass." Alexander said.
"Smashers! Let us work together to defeat this thing!" Master Hand said.
"Yeah!" All the smashers shouted.
"Holy!" Alexander cast a spell that caused a condensed ball of holy light to descend and once it touched the ground, it burst with a bright burning light.
"Augh!" Ganondorf shouted.
"This… doesn't… bother me…" Pit said, because apparently he was getting the least affected. Pit pulled out as many hammers as he could in both hands and hurled them all at Alexander. All of them bounced harmlessly off of him.
"Is this all?" Alexander asked umimpressed.
"Psych bomb!" Peach threw a bomb in to the air that split in to multiple bombs dropping on top of Alexander.
"Double Finger bullets!" The two hands pointed their index and middles fingers at Alexander firing multiple missiles out of them, exploding on contact.
"Taste grenades!" Snake shouted throwing grenade after grenade after grenade.
"Koopa Fire burst!" Bowser threw the usual Molotov cocktails before breathing fireballs at them.
"Piiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiichuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!" He shouted sending multiple bolts of electricity at him.
"Oooooooooooooooooooooo!!!" DK threw as many orange grenades as he could.
"Hey give me a hand C. Falcon." Y. Link said as C. Falcon struggled to get up, offering him his bomb bag.
"Heh… alright then." C. Falcon and Y. Link began throwing every bomb in his bag at Alexander.
"Yoshi!" Yoshi started hurling egg after egg after egg at him.
"Pyo!" Kirby inhaled one of the many explosives and became bomb Kirby and began throwing several bombs he produced from his mouth.
"Eat this!" Fox shouted firing off homing launcher missiles.
"Hey…" Falco groaned finally standing up, "You're not stealing my fun." Falco said throwing even more grenades.
"Alright guys!"
"You can do it!"
"Go go go!"
"Yeeeeeeeeeeeah!" The Ice Climbers were cheering, due to their lack of explosives. "Say where's Luigi?" Popo asked.
"There he is!" Nana said pointing to a nearby building.
"Oh no..." Luigi moaned.
"Alright guys!" Marth yelled enthusiastically as the explosions completely engulfed Alexander.
"If only my arrows weren't holy… then I could assist in this." Pit sighed. Finally, everyone threw one last explosive at him and the final explosion ended up being much bigger than before.
"Yes! We did it!" Y. Link shouted.
"Not quite…" Came Alexander's voice. Everyone gaped in horror when the smoke cleared. Indeed, Alexander was standing there, his armor seemed barely scorched at all. "Was that it? I didn't even feel the slightest bit of that."
"No way!" Ganondorf shouted.
"Time to die!" Alexander's helmet opened up revealing two glowing blue eyes. A large concentration of holy energy was gathering in front of those eyes. Finally a great white beam of light swept over the smashers.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" The smashers all screamed.
"Hey wait, I'm not feeling anything." Y. Link said.
"Strange, neither am I." Marth commented.
"Pichu?" The smashers all looked in front of them and the hands were in front of them with their finger tips glowing, forming a large wall of energy in front of the smashers, forcing the beam to go around them.
"Cool!" Popo said. Finally, Alexander's attack stopped and the visor closed back up just as the hands stopped their shield.
"We have to be careful smashers, Crazy Hand and I can't make another one of those." Master Hand warned.
"We can't? Aw man…" Crazy Hand moped.
Meanwhile…
Kefka was still chanting that ritual he was since we last checked up on him. As always, somewhere in another part of his mind he was thinking to himself. "Hmmmmm… I don't feel the presence of most of the espers I summoned. And I still feel the approach of some presence… oh well, the smashers can't possibly defeat Alexander, even my abilities can't get through his armor, and the remaining fates are all unstoppable. And besides, even if that one presence trying to get to me gets past all of my pets, he won't be able to defeat me once the ritual is complete. Heh he he he he he."
Meanwhile…
Roy and the Black Knight stopped with their sword's projectiles and ran at each other full throttle. The Black Knight was running surprisingly fast and causing loud stomps as he ran, spinning his sword over his head. Roy was also running full steam ahead spinning his sword at his side. "Try THIS!!!" The Black Knight semi-shouted.
"HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!" The two of them swung their swords at each other. The swords sent out tremendous waves of fire and light, pushing the both of them backward. "AAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUGGGHHH!!!"
"Oof!" The both of them collided in to pillars and caused them both to topple. Roy caught his and had to hold it with both hands. The Black Knight's pillar collapsed on top of him and it did absolutely nothing to him. He simply faced Roy. "Those dragon genes, really do give him inhuman strength." The Black Knight sighed.
"Heh… only a few other smashers can exceed my physical strength." Roy grinned. "Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!" Roy hurled the pillar at the Black Knight, who simply sighed and swung his sword vertically and easily cut it in half before swinging his sword vertically upward to block Roy's sword.
"Sorry, but that distraction won't work so easily on me." The Black Knight pushed Roy away before thrusting his sword forward with enough force to send him sliding across the floor.
"Not going to work this time!" Roy took a counter-stance and knocked the Black Knight backward a few feet before slashing at his chest rapidly with his now completely flaming sword.
"Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr…" The Black Knight was having difficulty getting an opening in this barrage of attacks. "It seems, I don't have a choice…" The Black Knight suddenly slashed at Roy with even more might and speed than ever before, sending Roy crashing straight through one pillar leaving a trail of blood behind him.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!" Roy shouted in pain. Roy struggled to stand back up, and saw the Black Knight standing there, his sword glowing with a bright yellow light and his armor glowing black.
"I didn't want to have to use the power Lord Kefka gave me… but you left me with little choice. It seems you are more skilled than I gave you credit for." The Black Knight said with the same monotone as always.
"Yeah… well… this… only… makes things… more interesting…" Roy said finally standing all the way up.
Meanwhile…
After a long time of leaping around, or flying in Ridley's case, the two were definitely fatigued from all of this fighting. "I had best stick to close range combat against her." Ridley thought swooping in with laser blades projecting from his wrists.
"Not good…" Samus said. Ridley began slashing rapidly at Samus. Samus was dodging as fast as she could, but Ridley's speed was simply too much and the constant slashes were occasionally connecting and taking chunks out of the suit's shields. Samus quickly rolled in to morph ball and dropped a power bomb before boosting away.
"Oh hell…" Ridley muttered before the bomb exploded and sent him flying backward. "GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!" Samus then continued to leap after him, aiming her arm cannon carefully while charging up her power beam. "Super missile!" Samus launched a really fast and powerful missile that slammed Ridley in the chest with a powerful explosion. Samus looked on and scanned as far as her suit was able to and… "What!" Several fireballs appeared from her side and engulfed her in intense plasma energy. "Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!!!" Samus screamed as she went flying, suddenly Ridley appeared out of thin air with the tip of his tail spinning like a drill.
"Heh… like my new CLOAKING DEVICE!!!" Ridley then thrust his tail in to Samus' abdomen and started drilling through her suit. Starting to make its way in slowly, millimeter by millimeter.
"Grrrr… not… done… yet!!!" Samus then did a backward screw attack and deflected the side of the tail in to Ridley's chest, scraping it badly.
"Augh!" Samus then got a lot of distance and ran at Ridley activating the speed booster. Once she reached max speed, she leaped at Ridley and performed a speed boost powered screw attack.
"One solid hit with that and I'm dead!" Ridley thought. He quickly turned on his laser swords, focused nearly all of his power in to them and performed a quick cross-slash. Once the two attacks met, Samus began pushing Ridley back slowly with Ridley trying to push back. The energy the attacks were giving off was enough to send shockwaves flying out in every direction until finally the shockwaves sent them both flying backward. The two of them crashed in to two different buildings. Ridley's swords seemed to flicker before disappearing. "Damn it! That hunter short-circuited my beam swords."
Samus checked her visor and these words were flashing in red across the visor.
SCREW-ATTACK: TEMPORARILY OFFLINE
SPEED BOOSTER: TEMPORARILY OFFLINE
"Augh… that's all I need." Samus thought to herself. The two of them stood back up, and faced each other with a piercing glare.
Meanwhile…
Sheik and Orochimaru faced each other, both of them performing the same hand-sign at the exact same time. "Shadow Clone Jutsu!" They both said at the same time. Sheik produced about clones, Orochimaru created about 23 clones. The two sides charged at each other, engaging in hand to hand combat. Each side throwing swift kicks and punches taking each other down, however Orochimaru had quantity and quality over Sheik and had taken down all but the real Sheik with ten clones left.
"Time to die!" Orochimaru and his clones surrounded Sheik. Orochimaru attempted to throw kunai at Sheik, but Sheik leaped high in to the air to avoid it and throwing senbon at one of Orochimaru's clones, taking it out instead. However two of the other clones leaped at her in mid-air and slashed her in the sides with kunai. "It is over." Orochimaru chuckled before Sheik, disappeared in a puff of smoke? "What?" As the other Orochimaru clones landed, two hands appeared from beneath each of the clones and grabbed on tightly.
"Phoenix flower jutsu!" Orochimaru looked up and saw Sheik breathing down a rain of fireballs on top of each of the Orochimaru clones, causing them to disappear. Orochimaru disappeared in a puff of smoke, replacing himself with one of Sheik's clones, taking the clone out instead. "Where'd he go?" Sheik asked. She got her answer when Orochimaru's head came out of the ground and biting in to the side of one of Sheik's clones. Once it disappeared, he lashed his tongue out and flung one of the clones in to another one before disappearing back underground. "Better move it!" Sheik shouted to herself as she leaped out of the way of Orochimaru appearing from below ground. All the remaining clones leaped at Orochimaru, who simply threw kunai at all of them before turning his attention to the real Sheik.
"Is this all?" He asked before running at her, leaving behind a mere blur of himself.
"Not quite!" Sheik flipped over Orochimaru's charge and brought out her whip. Sheik began lashing the whip at Orochimaru with perfect control and precision, leaving Orochimaru little room to keep dodging.
"Oh please." He said as he dodged back and forth. Orochimaru finally whipped out his ever-versatile tongue and wrapped it around Sheik's neck. Sheik however brought one of her arms up and prevented the tongue from completely strangling her, although it felt as though he was going to crush her arm.
"Got you." Sheik thought as she wrapped her whip around Orochimaru's leg.
"What?" He thought with surprise as Sheik yanked her whip backward, crushing his leg with enough force to severe the leg right off. Orochimaru let go of Sheik and literally snaked away in time to avoid a bunch of senbon thrown at him. He coiled his way up a pillar and crouched on the top of it putting his weight on his arms.
"What are you going to do now Orochimaru?" Sheik asked tauntingly, coiling her whip back up and preparing to use it again. "After all, it seems I'm one leg up from you now." She continued to jeer.
"Hm hm hm hm hm hm hm hm hm." He chuckled menacingly.
"He's… laughing?" Sheik thought as her eyes lost that confident gleam.
"Ah yes… you really have grown much stronger. So much more powerful and cunning indeed…" Orochimaru continued to chuckle. To Sheik's horror, two sets of fingers appeared from Orochimaru's mouth and began pushing his mouth open. Orochimaru then crawled out of his skin like it was a robe in the same condition he started the battle with, he even had his leg as if he never lost it.
"He's… he's not human…" Sheik thought as a look of fear crossed her face. And as if crawling out of his own skin wasn't enough, he opened his mouth again, this time a snake crawled out of it and opened its own mouth. Slowly the blade of a sword came out of the snake's mouth until its handle was visible; Orochimaru took hold of the sword as the snake crawled back in to his mouth.
"Kusanagi! Long sword of Heaven!" Orochimaru declared as he held the sword over his head. "Congratulations, you are worthy of me to use this sword on you." Orochimaru chuckled.
Meanwhile…
Link and Ramirez leaped away from each other, Link threw his boomerang, which Ramirez simply knocked away with his sword before charging at Link. Link blocked Ramirez's thrust with his shield before pushing away and attempting to counter with a spin attack. Ramirez simply leaped away before the attack was initiated. "Moons, give me strength… Crystalen!" The air around Link suddenly got really cold when a giant icicle suddenly came from the ground and completely crushed him.
"Augh!" As the crystal shattered, causing various cuts to appear on Link's body, Ramirez ran at Link with his usual insane speed. Link suddenly slammed the ground with the palm of his hand. "Din's Fire!" A sphere of flames suddenly surrounded him and expanded, blasting Ramirez away. "Heh… my magic… may not be… as effective as Zelda's…" Link gasped. "But… it does its… job…" Link said standing back up. Ramirez stood back up with his burns healing slowly. Looking at him, you could almost swear there was a look of anger in his eyes. Link decided not to wait and he immediately picked up a large rock with the help of his golden gauntlets and hurled it at Ramirez with all his might.
"Grrrr…" Ramirez leaped high above the rock and swung his sword vertically to meet with Link's vertical slash. Link then pushed Ramirez's sword away before initiating…
"Spin attack!" Link spun around and around, slashing Ramirez rapidly before slamming Ramirez further up in to the air with the broadside of his sword. While Ramirez was still in the air, Link pulled out another light arrow and took careful aim. "Light arrow!" Link fired it at Ramirez leaving a trail of light behind it.
"I've had enough!" Ramirez spun around in mid-air and deflected the arrow with his sword before slashing at Link with enough force to send a shockwave at Link.
"Ugh!" Link was sent flying back down toward the ground with a loud crash.
"Where there is light… there is darkness…" Ramirez said slowly as he landed. "Sword of the dark moon." Ramirez then disappeared in to a giant silver portal.
"I guess… I don't have much choice…" Link said. He closed his eyes, and focused inward. "Eyes of truth!" Link opened his eyes and his pupils had changed from their normal look to resemble the crying eye symbol of the Sheikah with his normal eye color. Link then spun around and swung his glowing sword at an angle and instantly stopped Ramirez's attack by landing a deep cut across his chest.
"Augh! But… how…?" Ramirez asked as he grabbed his chest in pain.
"Quite a long time ago in Termina, I found an item called the lens of truth that allowed me to see things others couldn't. The item fused with my eyes after using it so much and now I can use it easily, but it constantly uses magic. But I don't need long to defeat you with it!" Link said pointing his sword at Ramirez.
"Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr…"
"Hm?"
"GrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" Ramirez suddenly tore off the glove on his left hand and revealed a crystal shining with blinding light. A silver liquid seemed to come from it and envelop Ramirez in to a large silver orb. Finally the orb took form, Ramirez no longer seemed like himself, his eyes were red, and his right arm was fused in to another giant silver arm that ended in a large three-fingered hand. His left arm had silver markings all over it and whenever this arm moved, another silver, five fingered arm and hand moved with it. Ramirez's feet were no longer visible since the silver figure had covered that as well and instead it was a spiral of silver suspending over the ground. Finally, hanging above Ramirez's head was a faceless head that had three thick tentacles that could pass off for hair if it wasn't completely silver.
"What… are you?" Link asked quivering.
"Die…" Ramirez said with what sounded like another voice behind his own.
Meanwhile…
Mewtwo and Mithos were still locking hands and pushing back and forth against each other, glaring hard at one another. "It seems I'll have to use that dark magic as well." Mithos thought. Suddenly Mithos became surrounded by a dark aura while still giving off that angelic glow.
"He's combining light with dark again! This isn't good." Mewtwo thought with a look of shock on his face.
"Take this!" Mithos easily overpowered Mewtwo and hurled him toward the ground. "Ground Dasher!" Mithos cast another magic spell, causing a large crack in the ground with rocks flying out of it mercilessly bombarding Mewtwo.
"Auuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuggggghhh!"
"Now! Cyclone!" Mithos cast yet another magic spell that stirred up a gigantic cyclone of green wind that cut Mewtwo while the rocks were still battering him. "Ha ha ha ha ha! Tidal Wave!" And if that wasn't enough, Mithos then cast a spell that stirred up a whole lot of water that was carried by the cyclone, with Mewtwo feeling the brunt of this barrage of spells.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!" Mewtwo screamed in his head. Mewtwo then focused inward. "Recover!" Mithos used a pokemon move that restored most of his HP before putting up a barrier to protect him from the attacks.
"Ha! It's useless, you can't attack me since you'll need all your strength against all of these spells." Mithos gloated. "And you'll be helpless with the addition of this spell. Pris…" But before Mithos could cast it, a powerful psychic blast hit Mithos from behind and caused his spells to cease while sending him flying toward Mewtwo. "Augh! What the…?"
"You were saying?" Mewtwo asked before slamming his tail on top of Mithos, sending him flying toward the ground. "Telekinesis!" Mewtwo picked up a weakened Mithos with his mind and threw him in to another throne before flying at Mithos with an enflamed fist.
"Grrrrr… you inferior being!" Mithos stopped the punch cold with one hand. "Outburst!" Mithos sent Mewtwo flying backward and crashing through all but Kefka's throne. "Now for a spell I developed after Lord Kefka gave me my power." Mithos said charging up a spell. "Chaos Lance!" Suddenly four orbs that seemed to glow with both light and dark magic surrounded Mewtwo.
"What?" Suddenly powerful magic energy in the shape of a lance came from each orb then blasted him with before one more lance came from above him. "Augh! Rargh! Gah! Doh! ARRRRRRRRRRGGGGHHH!!!" Mewtwo finally fell to his knees while Mithos flew up to him preparing a powerful punch. "You… will not defeat me… a second time!" Mewtwo teleported out of the way of the punch and reappeared behind Mithos. "Psych up!" Mewtwo suddenly began to glow with the same light as Mithos before throwing his own mega-powerful punch.
"AAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGHHHH!!!" Mithos cried as he went crashing through Kefka's throne. "But… that punch… was… as strong as… mine…" Mithos groaned as he stood back up.
"I rarely use this move… and at first… I didn't think I could handle it if I used it on you." Mewtwo explained. "Psych up enhances my strength at the same level as someone increased their abilities. Since you enhanced all of your abilities several fold, I copied those enhancements to maintain the balance." Mewtwo finished explaining. "Although… his enhancements… are almost too much… for me to handle…" Mewtwo thought to himself.
"Heh heh heh heh. Well, let's see you copy this…" Mithos said menacingly. Suddenly there was a bright flash of light that blinded Mewtwo.
"What?" Mewtwo had to shield his eyes from this intense light for what felt like forever. Finally, when the light had vanished, Mewtwo found himself no longer in the throne room. Instead, he appeared to be floating just above a magic circle while the area around them seemed like an infinite void of magical energy. "Where did Mithos go?" Mewtwo asked looking around.
"I haven't gone anywhere Mewtwo…" Mithos voice said telepathically with a more sinister echo. "… I'm not going anywhere just yet…"
"What?" Mewtwo finally saw Mithos behind him as he turned around. Only… it didn't look like Mithos. It was some floating creature that had four very long and thin arms. Two of them had blue orbs at the end; the other two had two yellow scythe-esque blades that folded in. It was also surrounded by small shield shaped objects and it had multi-colored feathers coming from behind it. The only thing left that resembled Mithos, was his head that appeared in a blue dome near the top and front of the creature.
"Heh… heh… heh… I can't wait to watch you squirm." Mithos said once again as Mewtwo just stared at him bewildered.
Meanwhile…
Mario was standing where we last left him with both the sides he was surrounded on completely scorched and with all of the attackers nowhere to be seen. "Mama-mia, what a waste of-a time and-a energy." Mario gasped as he continued to walk up the stairs. "I've-a got to-a not use-a so much energy at-a once like-a that again." Mario said to himself. Mario reached in to his pocket and pulled out a green mushroom. "I-a better have-a just a small-a bite." Mario said as he pulled off a section of it and chucked it in to his mouth. He regained some of his energy before putting the mushroom back in to his pocket and continuing up the stairs at a more brisk pace.
Meanwhile…
"Let's topple him over!" Ganondorf shouted charging up a fist.
"Pyo!" Kirby pulled out the pill case and swallowed the rock pill. His skin turned gray and he was wearing a hat with a red fluffy decoration on it.
"Chaarge!" C. Falcon shouted. Ganondorf, Bowser, DK, C. Falcon, Kirby, both the hands, Solid Snake with iron knuckles on, both of the Ice Climbers with larger hammers having iced their hammers over, Peach, Yoshi, Luigi, Pichu, Pit, Fox, and Falco charged at one of the front pillars Alexander was supported on.
"Double Warlock Punch!"
"Head butt!"
"Double Kong Punch!"
"Double Falcon Punch!"
"Pyooooo! (Stone fists!)"
"Heavy Iron Fist!"
"Icy hammer squall!"
"Peach bomber!"
"Yoshi! (Egg-roll)"
"Green Missile!"
"Pichu! (Skull bash)"
"Mallet!"
"Fire Fox!"
"Fire Bird!"
"Master Fist!"
"Crazy Fist!"
All of these attacks hit the left pillar quickly followed by.
"Air slash!" Marth slashed with his sword at Alexander's left side.
"Bomb arrow!" Link fired an arrow with a bomb tied to it at Alexander's left side. However despite all of this, Alexander didn't budge one inch.
"Oh please… this is a waste of my time." Alexander said. "Holy!" Alexander once again cast that same spell that caused holy light to explode and knock back all of the smashers.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" They all screamed. When the light cleared, all the smashes were down and out none of them able to stand.
"Oh no! Smashers!" Master Hand shouted.
"Noooooooooooooo!!! Why couldn't it be me? Whyyyyyyyyyyyy!?" Crazy Hand shouted in the usual over-dramatized fashion.
"Oh they're still alive Crazy." Master Hand told him. "Sheesh, but we'll have to stop this one by ourselves now." Master Hand finished.
"Oh okay." Crazy Hand said simply. "You're going down…" Crazy Hand said in a low voice.
"Not even Lord Kefka can penetrate my armor! It is useless!" Alexander declared once again.
Meanwhile…
Samus and Ridley were in close range combat, Samus throwing as many punches and kicks as she could while dodging Ridley's claws and tail swipes. "I'll kill you!" Ridley shouted snapping his jaws at Samus.
"I've bested you many times before and I'll do it again!" Samus said kicking him under the chin before getting knocked away by one of his claws. Samus back-flipped in mid-air and landed on her feet. "That's it, I'm ending this now." Samus said focusing all of her suit's energy in to her arm cannon. "True power! Omega Cannon!" Samus yelled firing her gigantic blue beam at Ridley.
"Oh no you don't!" Ridley inhaled deeply and breathed out an equally gigantic beam of plasma, the same one he used to destroy the Halberd on the way here. The two beams met and formed a giant orb of blue and orange where they met. The two beams began pushing back and forth with intense and unimaginable power. Ridley tried using his missiles like he did when the hands tried to stop his attack, but when he tried to use them, he found them not functioning. "Grrr… this fight has used up too much energy, I can't use my missiles as well as my plasma beam." Ridley thought to himself.
"I… will not lose to you Ridley…not if the lives of my friends depends on it!" Samus thought. Suddenly, inch by inch, the Omega beam started pushing back the Plasma beam.
"No! That's not possible!" Ridley then breathed outward as much as he possibly could, pushing his own limits as far as he could push them. The Plasma beam once again began to gain the upper hand. "Sorry hunter, but this time… you lose!" Ridley thought.
"Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr… I will fight… FOR MY COMRADES IF MY LIFE DEPENDS ON IT!!!" Samus shouted at the top of her lungs. The Omega beam suddenly received an unexplained surge of power and pushed back Ridley's attack.
"No! I… lost again?!? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" The two beams, combined in power, swept over Ridley and completely disintegrated him, not to mention it took out pretty much the whole area behind Ridley, leveling every building and leaving the ground a completely flat and burnt wasteland.
"Heh… too bad for you… Ridley." Samus smiled as her armor suit fell off and revealed her in her spandex. She put the suit in some high-tech suitcase and began to let it charge as she limped toward the castle.
Meanwhile…
Roy was now having a harder time than ever with the Black Knight. Not only had the Black Knight gotten much faster than before, but also much stronger. Every time Roy would get close, the Black Knight would knock him away with his sword. And if Roy kept his distance and launched fireballs, the Black Knight would cancel them out with a wave of light and hit Roy with that same light as well. "AUGH!!!" Roy shouted as he went crashing in to the last pillar standing in the room.
"How pitiful…" The Black Knight said. He thrust his sword in to the ground and sent out a shockwave of light out in every direction.
"AUGH!!!" Roy shouted once again being sent flying. The Black Knight menacingly moved forward slowly with his sword ready to slice Roy.
"And to think… you might have been a challenge." The Black Knight sighed. "So long." The Black Knight thrust his sword towards Roy's heart. Roy then clapped his hands on the broadside of the Black Knight's sword and just barely stopped it. Roy struggled to push the sword away from him while the Black Knight kept pushing towards Roy's heart. "What is this sudden strength…is… sheer willpower alone really… this potent?" The Black Knight asked himself.
"I…"
"Hm?"
"I… won't be… beaten… by the likes of you… SO EASILY!!!" Roy suddenly pushed the sword away from him, grabbed his own sword and jumped toward him performing a barrel roll flip while his sealed sword was charging. "Flare Sword!" Roy slashed at that Black Knight, causing an explosion that sent the Black Knight scooting several feet backward, leaving a tremendous amount of space between them.
"I guess I should finish you with my ultimate attack!" The Black Knight said spinning his sword over his head around and around and around before doing several spins himself and taking one mighty swing of his sword that sent a tremendous wave of light towards Roy.
"True power! Dragon Slash!" Roy slashed his blazing sword and sent a wave of fire in the shape of a giant dragon's head towards the Black Knight, roaring as it soared through the air. The two attacks met and began pushing back and forth against each other. Roy and the Black Knight both hit their knees, unable to move anymore from this exhausting battle. All they could do was wait for one attack to overpower the other. The sparks of flame and light went flying, giving off a blinding light as the attacks continued to push.
"It seems…" The Black Knight started to say.
"Hm?"
"You've won…" The Black Knight said looking at Roy one last time before the Dragon Slash caused the wave of light to explode before surging forward and enveloping the Black Knight.
"Ah!" Roy gasped in surprise. When the flames cleared, The Black Knight was on the ground, his armor completely scorched over, quite possibly dead. Roy looked, almost sad as he struggled to stand back up. "You were… a worthy opponent." Roy said limping towards the door.
Meanwhile…
Orochimaru leaped toward Sheik and began slashing away with his kusanagi sword at Sheik, who was jumping, ducking and sidestepping each slash. When Orochimaru thrust his sword, Sheik jumped backward, but to her shock, the sword began extending forward. "What!" The tip of the sword stabbed Sheik somewhere above the stomach and below the chest area. "Augh!" Sheik somehow yanked out the sword and pushed it to the side as it continued to extend.
"Hm hm hm hm. I'm looking forward to this kill." Orochimaru said running forward with his sword back to normal length. Sheik then disappeared in a puff of smoke. "Hiding again? It's useless you know." Orochimaru said. Suddenly multiple Sheiks leaped high in to the air from underground before all of them lunged toward Orochimaru. "Heh…" In one swift movement, Orochimaru spun around expertly swinging his sword as it extended and easily took out every last clone.
"Fireball Jutsu!" Orochimaru turned around just in time to see Sheik breathing a large fireball at Orochimaru. Orochimaru stuck the sword in to the ground for a moment before making a few hand signs.
"Great Breakthrough!" Orochimaru then breathed forward a tremendous gust of wind, when it came in contact with the fireball, the wind carried the flames with it, turning his wind attack in to a giant flamethrower like attack.
"Earth Style!" Sheik slammed the ground just in time to make a giant slab of stone block the flames. However the sheer power of the attack was beginning to break through the rock slab as flames began to leak through the cracks. "All right, if I can't fight him ninja to ninja…" Sheik said quietly.
Orochimaru watched as the rock slab crumbled under his attack. However Sheik was nowhere to be seen. "Hm?"
"Din's Fire! Din's Fire! Din's Fire! Din's Fire! Din's Fire! Din's Fire! Din's Fire!" Suddenly he looked around to see multiple homing fireballs heading his way, and Princess Zelda using Farore's wind to teleport all around him.
"What?"
"Yah!" Zelda made every fireball explode once they were all close to Orochimaru, causing a very large explosion. "Hm? Where'd he go now?" Zelda asked. Suddenly Orochimaru's upper body came bursting out of the ground with his legs extending from the ground. "Nayru's Love!" Zelda quickly cast a barrier that blocked the initial swing of his Kusanagi sword, but to her dismay, Orochimaru began coiling around the shield until it disappeared and thus coiled her tightly, trapping her in place. Orochimaru's feet still in the ground, his extended legs coiled around her, and his upper body high above her with him holding his sword pointing down ready to stab Zelda in the skull.
"Hm hm hm hm hm hm hm hm… I'll admit, this has been fun. You are perhaps the most worthy opponent I've had since the 3rd Hokage, possibly even more potent than him. But it is now it is time to die. Goodbye Princess!" Orochimaru said as he lunged downward with his sword pointed at her head.
"Not yet…" Zelda thought. "Farore's wind!" Zelda somehow managed to create a gust of wind that teleported her out of harm's way as Orochimaru's sword pierced the ground instead.
"What?"
"True Power! Goddess Judgment!" Zelda shouted. The three triangles of the triforce attempted to trap Orochimaru as it did with D. Sheik. But Orochimaru was smart enough to swiftly move far out of the way.
"Ha! Nice try." Orochimaru said. However the Triforce symbol that was formed almost stood up and formed an angle. As the beam of light from above hit the center of the triforce, it reflected off the center and towards Orochimaru. "Gr. This is troubling." Orochimru quickly bit both of his thumbs hard enough to make them bleed, he pressed them against the ground. "Summoning Jutsu: Triple Rashoman!" Suddenly three gigantic Japanese style gates with spiked columns and demonic faces rose upward in a line between the beam of light and Orochimaru.
"That won't work." Zelda said solemnly. As she said those words, the beam of light burst through all three gates without losing any momentum.
"Well well…" Orochimaru smiled as the beam grew closer to him and the wall behind him.
KAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!
The smoke cleared, and there was now a large hole in the wall that revealed the dark void of the X-dimension through it. "Did… did I really win?" Zelda asked.
"Hm hm hm hm hm hm hm hm hm…" Came Orochimaru's voice from every direction.
"What?" Zelda asked.
"You have significantly improved Zelda. I must say, I enjoyed this fight." Orochimaru continued to speak from nowhere. "However, my current body isn't strong enough to hold my full power, and thus I am unable to continue in long battles… for now." Orochimaru said. Zelda was still looking around in fear. "I had best leave, but the next time we meet, you had best grow stronger, because I won't hold back any longer when we meet." Orochimaru finished before the whole room got quiet.
"His… presence from the room… it's gone." Zelda said as she slowly stood back up and walked toward the door. "I…just hope the others are safe now." Zelda thought.
Meanwhile…
Despite Ramirez's new hulking form, it was considerably faster than Ramirez was before. Even with his eyes of truth, Link could barely anticipate the attacks and avoid them. Link took one thrust at Ramirez, but he was simply backhanded with tremendous force and sent flying through three boulders in a row. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!"
"I'm not done torturing you yet…" Ramirez said with that same bone-chilling voice behind his own. The tips of the fingers on the five-fingered silver hand then released blood red strings that coiled around Link and brought him ever closer to him.
"Augh! Let… me… go!" Link demanded, unable to get free. The three fingered silver hand then clamped on to Link's body with bone-crushing force. "AAAAAAUUUUUUUUGGGGHHH!!!" Ramirez's eyes then became even redder as he stared at Link with sheer bloodlust.
"Die…" He said simply "Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh!" Ramirez yelled as the back of the silver creature that had a semi-spherical section glowed blue and six tentacles with spear like tips came out, every last one of them impaling Link.
"GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" Link screamed bloody murder. Finally, the tentacle that pierced his back now had him dangling in front of the silver head as the head opened a before unseen mouth and fired an unbelievably power beam of light at Link. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" Link screamed as the beam sent searing pain through his whole body. Link finally sprawled across the ground, bloody and burnt from that assault.
"Only a painful death awaits you… surrender or fight… I will make you die slowly… have you begging for a quick end…" Ramirez said in that still possessed voice.
"You… think… I'm… going… to quit?" Link said struggling to stand up. When he finally did stand up he said two words. "Yeah right." Link whipped out his bow and fired a light arrow at the ground at his feet, causing a bright flash. When the light cleared, Link was nowhere to be seen. Ramirez began turning around and around looking for Link. He didn't have to look long when he felt a light arrow pierce his back.
"Uwaaaaaaaaaaaaa!" Ramirez cried, completely stunned by the attack.
"True Power! Triforce Slasher!" Ramirez became trapped between two triforce symbols as Link appeared with a glowing Master Sword in his hands. "Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh!!!" Link began hacking and slashing away mercilessly at Ramirez, his sword glowing even brighter with each slash. "Goooooooodbyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyeeeeee!!!" Link shouted with anger rising in his voice. Link delivered one final vertical slash down the center of Ramirez, the cut left behind by this slash began to glow with a bright white light.
"GrrrrrrrrrrAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" Ramirez shouted as he disappeared slowly. Link landed on the ground, as well as a round silver crystal.
"… I have to do it." Link said. He plunged his sword in to Ramirez's crystal, thus shattering it, and Ramirez's life for good. "I'll have to… catch… up with you guys… later." Link said softly with a smile as he leaned against one of the rocks.
Meanwhile…
"Judgment!" Mithos cast a spell that caused beams of light to crash down on to the whole field, with Mewtwo barely able to dodge them. However once Mewtwo dodged the last one, he got hit from behind by one of those giant blue orbs of Mithos and sent flying across the magic circle.
"Augh! What power!" Mewtwo gasped.
"Indignation!" Mithos cast yet another spell that caused a purple magic circle with an electric orb hovering above it to appear around the spot Mewtwo finally regained his balance at. However Mewtwo didn't have time to get out of the way as a powerful blast of electricity engulfed the whole circle he was in.
"UWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!" He shouted before hitting his knees.
"Ha ha ha ha ha. You are so weak…" Mithos said as he quickly cast yet another spell. "Prism Sword!" A ring of light surrounded Mewtwo as rays of light in the shape of swords began to fall towards Mewtwo.
"Amnesia." Mewtwo used an ability that… somehow… raised his special defense. Although I still don't know where they got the name for that move. Well regardless, Mewtwo managed to withstand the attack at it mercilessly bombarded him. "Psychic!" Mewtwo blasted Mithos with his strongest psychic blast yet, and yet Mithos did not even flinch from this and simply cast yet another spell.
"Oh is that all? Absolute!" The spell encased Mewtwo in a bunch of sharp icicles that soon exploded.
"Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr… recover!" Mewtwo quickly attempted to heal his numerous wounds, but it was having very little effect.
"I'm tired of this. Indignation Judgement!!!" Mithos cast his ultimate spell, the whole arena became covered in that purple magic circle with a large orb of lightning hovering above it.
"Heh… it ends here." Mewtwo said telepathically with a smile across his face. The lightning bolt struck, causing the whole area to be enveloped by an unimaginably powerful lightning strike.
"Ha ha ha… what?!" Mithos laugh suddenly stopped when he found Mewtwo hovering several feet away from him. His hands were high above his head, holding a blue sphere much much larger than Mithos was currently, the electric spell had been absorbed by whatever this attack was, as it was giving off an electric glow. "But… but… THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!!!" Mithos shouted angrily.
"True Power! Psychic Meteor!" Mewtwo hurled the large ball of psychic energy at Mithos, who could do nothing but stare as it came closer and think to himself…
"I've… failed again… Martel… my sister…" The orb connected with him and engulfed him in a bright flash of light. Mewtwo soon found himself in the room they were originally fighting in, with a red sphere on the ground.
"What's… this…?" Mewtwo asked floating over toward it, he picked it up with telekinesis and had it float a few millimeters above his hand. He looked closely and saw Mithos' face in it. "Mithos?"
"Pft… as long as this Crusix Crystal is intact… I will never die… Lord Kefka put it back together when he found the pieces so that I could assist him. In return, he would give me the chance to fulfill my dreams of living in a world for just myself and my sister." Mithos continued to say. "But now… that dream really does mean nothing. I've taken the same road twice, and twice my journey was stopped by those who had taken the path I did not take. Shatter my crystal for good this time. Just bear in mind… I still have no regrets…" Mithos finished. Mewtwo crushed the crystal before he finally stopped hovering and landed on his feet. He walked unsteadily toward the wall and rested against it.
"Good luck… Mario…" Mewtwo said as he closed his eyes.
Meanwhile…
The hands continued to punch, slap, clap, drill, poke, and fire on Alexander, however nothing was getting through whatsoever. "There has got to be some weakness. Kefka wouldn't summon a monster more powerful than him." Master Hand said.
"Why not?" Crazy Hand asked.
"That should be obvious!!!" Master Hand shouted.
"So long my foes!" Alexander shouted as his helmet opened up once again.
"That's it!!! Now Crazy Hand! Our ultimate attack!"
"Do you mean…?"
"Yes I mean it! Now come here!" Master Hand and Crazy Hand locked hands and pointed their index fingers at the opening in the helmet with their thumbs pointed upward. The two of them resembled a gun in this pose.
"Face my holy judgment!" Alexander shouted charging up that beam attack from earlier.
"Hand Bros. secret attack! Finger blaster!" The two hands shouted at once, firing a relatively narrow but RIDICULOUSLY POWERFUL beam of energy that pierced through Alexander's beam and in to his helmet.
"Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!" Alexander shouted as he disappeared, leaving behind the Topaz pact ring.
"Whew… I'm… exhausted…" Crazy Hand panted.
"So… are… the smashers…" Master Hand said. "Perhaps… we… should rest… for now…" Master Hand said.
Meanwhile…
Kefka was still chanting. Just when you thought the gibberish would never end, Kefka finally yelled "BRING BACK TOGETHER THE ULTIMATE DARK POWER AND UNLEASH MY FURY ACROSS EVERY WORLD!!! MWA HA HA HA HA HA!!!" In a flash of pure black energy, the Black Rune pulled itself together, and it was finally complete. "The smashers… are too late." Kefka smiled.

Sorry for the long wait, and give yourself a pat on the back if you've read this whole chapter because it really is freakishly long. Next chapter, The Ritual is complete! How this whole thing started.
