I apologize for all the delays. At first, I had been wrapped up in the newest games, and then my laptop went out and I lost the remaining files. However, I intend to have this finished by christmas (or the new year) so do not worry and thanks for staying with this story!

Many references in this one as well, can you find them?

Also, a shocking theory that many MOTHER fans believe is revealed in here. Yes I support it too, but it does require some thinking.

Rain.

There was nothing but rain and dark clouds in the town of Onnet. A rainy day in the summertime was sporadic, but it wasn't a stranger. The streets, once filled with children playing the day away, were now inside playing video games or watching television. Cars on the street were moving at a slow pace due to the heavy rain. Animals were in sheltered places, either hollow trees or under bridges. A gloomy feeling fell over the town as the rain splattered about the streets and houses.

Although not everyone was depressed.

Inside the Knight's house stood the siblings Ness and Tracy, each staring out the same window at the rain. Both stood there with a smile, gazing out the window. The other members of the chosen four, along with Picky, took a place around the house. Jeff and Poo were at the kitchen table. Jeff was writing down some things on a sheet of paper while Poo sat at the table with his eyes closed. Paula sat on the couch in the living room, flicking through the channels with the remote to the T.V. Picky sat in the corner, silently counting his fingers. The house was silent, except for the brief sounds from the television. Every now and then a child let out a sigh, making the room even more depressing. Eventually, Mrs. Knights came from downstairs and looked around the room.

"My, I haven't seen any of you this depressed before. Not even when you had to go to school during the hottest day of the year." She laughed, trying to brighten the mood. The only response was a sigh from Poo. She sighed herself and walked over to her children, placing a hand on the windowsill. "Your father is asleep upstairs, so normally I'd tell you to keep it down. However I guess I don't have to today."

Tracy turned to her mother and showed her smile. "It's ok Mom, it's not the end of the world yet."

Ness also turned to face his mother and showed his smile. "Considering this, we have had way better days than this."

Picky looked up and stared at the siblings. "What are you two so happy about?" He asked.

"A little rain for your day, keeps the bad guys pondering away." Ness said. Everyone in the room stared at him, except for Tracy. He chuckled and continued. "I had a strange feeling about today, but I didn't guess it would rain. Our guest may have a hard time getting here." He winked at the group. "Once he comes, and Ninten and his friends come here to pick us up, we can finally put this war to rest."

"You really want to get Pokey, don't you?" Paula asked.

Ness looked away from her and looked out the window. "Pokey is…a strange person. Taking his past into account, along with Picky's, it is understandable to see how he became to be. It may seem that he has nothing but hatred in his heart, but once, just once, he was a good kid. I admit it; Pokey Minch was a good kid. He just dreamed of big things. Once he told me he was going to be the president one day. We would always play games where he would practice ruling over others. He sometimes showed understanding and compassion, while other times he was mean and aggressive. I still played with him, and even Tracy and Picky played with us too." Upon hearing this, both Tracy and Picky nodded. "I don't understand why he had to get beaten at first, he never seemed to do anything wrong. So he may have stolen a piece of candy at the store, or broke my bedroom window when we were playing baseball, but he didn't deserve to be beaten. Something must have happened to make him snap. The older he got, the more his heart closed up and filled with hatred. I don't know if my friend is still inside there, but I want to try to talk to him. Maybe, just maybe, I can see him one last time before this ends. No matter what I wish, he can't be forgiven and must be taken down. I swore to protect this world once I learned about my Psi powers." Ness then turned around and faced everyone again. "Paula…Jeff…Poo…you all made that promise with me as well. Picky and Tracy even promised and they couldn't even travel with us! We all promised to protect the world from whoever meant harm to it. No matter who they are…even if it may become one of us. Pokey…no, Porky may have been my best friend once, but I have to stop him at all cost. He teamed up with Giygas, he almost destroyed our home, he's killed innocent people of the future, ruined others families…No one can forgive him. Not even me. That's why this mission means a lot to me. If we fail…the world will end. And it's only a matter of time before he remembers that there are other dimensions out there."

Silence fell upon the room once more. The rain became heavier outside and splattered against the window. Everyone looked at Ness, who now looked out the window and at the rain. His eyes seemed to be focused on something else.

"We won't let you down buddy." Jeff said who appeared next to Ness and paced a hand on his shoulder. Ness looked at him. "I've done some thinking and wrote down some ideas. Pokey claims to be invincible, right? However nothing is invincible at all, it's only temporary. His weakness must be able to disable it. According to Lucas and company, it's not a super shield like Giygas had, so it must be something else."

"If we kill the young Pokey, then won't the old one die?" Poo asked.

"Yes, but we may alter the future more than we already have." Jeff retorted. "We have to think about approaching this without disturbing the past, present, or future any more than we already have."

Just then there was a loud pounding on the door. Ness rushed over and answered it with a grin. "Speaking of the past…" He said with a chuckle.

Ninten walked inside the house with an upset face. Behind him was Ana, who looked around the room and took off her hat, revealing her pigtails. As she shook her head around, Loid walked in behind her very slowly, for his glasses were foggy and he couldn't see. After stumbling for a few moments, he collapsed on the couch while Teddy walked into the room. Teddy stood by the doorway until EVE rolled into the room. EVE looked around the small area and made a small beeping noise before moving out of the doorway. Each of the four was carrying backpacks. Ness then shut the door after checking if anyone else was outside. "Wasn't there five of you?" He asked.

From out of Teddy's backpack came Pippi, who had a backpack of her own. "Here I am!" She exclaimed. "I'm so small that I can fit in a backpack and avoid getting wet!" She beamed as the other four sighed. Everyone else chuckled except for Mrs. Knights.

Mrs. Knights walked up to the five friends and examined each of them. She looked at Ninten, then Loid, then Teddy, then Pippi, and then Ana. She then looked at Ness, Paula, Jeff, and Poo. After she was finished, she silently walked upstairs, leaving everyone confused.

"Your mom is weird." Ninten told Ness. Ness shot the boy a death glare.

Ana punched him in his arm. "I thought you liked weird." She gave him a questioning look as he rubbed his arm.

"We should get going…Let's go play in the rain for a while." Ness said, biting his tongue. "It's best to keep moving instead of messing around. We have a day to train and a day to relax, not another day more."

"But it's raining outside!" Ana complained. "I don't want my hair wet."

"It looks better wet if you ask me." Ninten shrugged.

Ness looked away while Ana blushed. Poo got up from the table and walked over. "It's like looking in a mirror, isn't it Ness?" He chuckled.

"Shut up." He said, leading Paula to chuckle.

As the kids headed outside in the rain, Mrs. Knights went upstairs into her own bedroom. She walked over to Mr. Knights, who was sleeping, and shook him violently. The man simply turned over and snored. Frustrated, Mrs. Knights went inside the bedroom closet and searched around for something. She then stopped and pulled out a book. It was a dusty old book with a black cover. Mrs. Knights walked back over to her husband. She took a deep breath and blew away the dust covering the book. The dust went into Mr. Knights' face. With a twitch of his nose, the man let out a sneeze, barely covering his wife. He sat up and rubbed his eyes tiredly, and let out a few coughs. Mrs. Knights smiled an innocent smile as Mr. Knights looked at her in disbelief.

"Honey can a man get some sleep?" he asked with a hint of annoyance.

"You know I can't let you do that." She retorted "We might have a problem to deal with." She opened the book to the first page. Inside was a single picture of Ninten, Ana, Loid, Teddy, and Pippi. Each of them was on top of a tree branch. Ninten was holding Ana closely while she was blushing. Teddy was posing and accidently pushed Loid out the tree. Pippi stood on the branch with a big grin, her pigtails fluttering in the air.

"I think our young selves may be here with our children and their friends!" Mrs. Knights exclaimed.

Now fully awake, Mr. Knights looked at his wife and smiled. "Then this shall be something to tell the kids." He chuckled.

Mrs. Knights slapped him. "Ninten if we die then we won't exist now! Then neither will Ness and Tracy! Shouldn't we do something?"

Mr. Knights lay back down and closed his eyes. "We were tough kids Ana; we can take care of ourselves. Ness and his buddies are strong as well, so there should be no worry. Now just relax, we got this."

Mrs. Knights looked out the window at the kids, running around through the rain. "I don't know, I can only hope they'll be ok."

The group of twelve moved throughout the rain, unsure of where they were going. Ness lead the way throughout the rain with a smile on his face. The others followed him without any questioning (out loud, that is).Stepping through the empty streets of Onnet, the group wandered through the seemingly deserted town. Every shop was closed, and every home had its lights on and people inside. Some of the people inside looked at the children and stared at them as they walked passed. Although nobody looked back, they could feel the stares on them. They kept moving through the town until they reached the outskirts on the side of the town. After entering the outskirts, a small house stood in the distance on the edge of a cliff with a nice view of the sea. Approaching the shoreline, Ness walked to the edge and stopped. The others, noticing him stop, stopped as well within a second. The ocean seemed to be raging as the storm hung over the sea. Lightning clashed with the ocean. Thunder could be heard, almost as if it was standing right next to you. Ness then turned to Jeff and gave him a key.

"Take everyone into the clubhouse." He told him.

"What about you?" Jeff asked.

"I have to wait for our visitor. Also, I have to go speak with your dad about something in private, so I'll go over there afterwards."

"Ok, but don't do anything rash. That shouldn't be a problem." Jeff said with a hint of sarcasm in his voice.

"Of course I won't." Ness replied with the same hint of sarcasm in his voice.

"I mean it Ness. I don't wanna find out Saturn Valley has become a battlefield." Jeff said sternly.

"Ok I won't, sheesh." Ness groaned. "I may be a little quick tempered, and maybe I like to trash about every now and then. I may also be Impetuous and silly and somewhat stubborn, and even highly curious. But I have…" He thought for a moment before continuing. "Good perseverance! Yea that's it. Don't worry about me." Ness smirked as Jeff sighed and walked away.

As Jeff walked over to the house, Ness stood there and stared at the sea. He looked over and watched everyone go inside, and then turned back to the sea. He took off his hat and looked at the sea with sheer determination. He closed his eyes and tried to focus his thoughts. "The weather report reported clear skies all week…something must be up," He thought. "If I clear my thoughts just like Poo taught me too, I can distinguish whether it really is an interference or if it's just an unexpected force of nature…" Ness could hear the sounds around him fading away. The feelings around him started to fade away as well. He stood there and did nothing but think.

"Become one with the earth…"

"When the mind is empty…"

"The earth can finally be heard…"

"She speaks of purity and safety…"

"She says to me…"

THUD!

Ness opened his eyes with a hint of annoyance to see what had disturbed him. However when he opened his eyes, all he saw was the color brown. In front of the young boy a towering figure could be seen. It shared a resemblance to the statue of liberty, only more male like. The tower had two huge ovals near the top. It had a cone shaped rock sticking out from under the ovals. It even had a small part pushed in slightly to form a bent oval, resembling a mouth. It appeared to be old, having seemingly aged. It had a jagged edge around the face. On the top were a few houses, indicating that someone could live on top of the figure. It had huge, bulky arms and a wide body. It stared at Ness.

"Am I late?" It asked, holding out a hand. "I would have been here sooner, but I was the storm and decided to wait a while."

With a double jump, Ness boarded the hand and smiled. "Nope, you're just in time and you seem ready for action. We would have waited anyway. You and I need to make a pit stop to Saturn valley."

"Oh, are we going to see Dr. Andronauts?" The statue asked with glee.

"Yep, I have a question for him. I also wanna see what he has built for my birthday as well. I'm taking you because you're coming with me." Ness smiled.

"But how will we get there? Don't I need to be on land for you to teleport?" The figure looked around. "I'm not sure I can jump high enough to get on the ledge without breaking it."

"Not unless I use Pk Teleport β." The young boy replied with a smirk.

"Then teleport away!"

"Pk Teleport β!"

As soon as the words were out of his mouth, Ness started spinning around in a circle. As he did, the statue also started spinning. In a matter of seconds, the two were spinning at a rapid pace. Within a flash, the two dashed off into the distance of the sea, almost at the speed of sound. In another blink, the two stomped their way through Saturn Valley, causing an earthquake. They screeched to a stop, causing not only fire on the ground, but also a deep trench in it as well. The two looked around, and the first thing in view was the Mr. Saturn, waddling around as usual. Dr. Andronauts was reading something, as he did not notice the noise.

"Hey doctor Andronauts!" Ness called.

As the doctor turned around, he noticed the boy and the statue standing there with smiles. He walked up to them with a smile. Ness jumped down from the statue and shook hands with the doctor. The doctor grinned at the sight of the two.

"Well if it isn't Ness and Dungeon Man!" the doctor exclaimed. "What brings you by on a somewhat fine day?"

"I was wondering if you had our special items ready yet." Ness asked. "You know the ones I asked you to build three weeks ago. We're gonna need them soon so I came by to pick them up and take them with us."

"Of course, as soon as you told me I went straight to work! However I forgot how many you needed. Will thirty be enough for everyone?"

"Yep, we're gonna attack Pokey soon." Ness clenched his fist at the mention of Pokey. "We're gonna make sure he won't hurt anyone anymore."

"Well then go pick them up from in that hut over there." Dr. Andronauts pointed over to a small house, and Ness ran over in that direction. The doctor then turned to the statue.

"So Dungeon Man, how are those new mobility items working for you?" He asked. "I trust you can use your new moves to your advantage in the fields and in battle as well?"

"Just great, thanks doc!" Dungeon Man replied. "Now I'll never get stuck by trees again! Also, I'm more mobile than both dungeon and man!"

"Did you try the water puffer 4000? It was still in the testing stage when I gave it to you."

"I tested it today when I crossed the ocean! It works like a charm allowing me to walk on the surface of the water. However there were some fish pecking at me while I walked."

"Remember not to move too fast in the water, or they may pop and allow you to sink. Also, if fish poke at you it's best to stand still and wait for them to go away. Should I build you something that allows you to swim?"

"No problem doc! I may be made of solid rock, but I can swim."

"Add that with your huge power, and you can be unstoppable!"

"The only problem is that I can't fly."

"You don't need too. You look like you could go up against King Kong and Godzilla together!"

The two shared a laugh.

"So how are they doing? I hope Jeff hasn't gotten into trouble."

"No, they said they needed me for battle, so I jumped at the chance."

"Keep an eye on Jeff for me ok?"

"Sure thing old pal, but I'm sure Jeff can take care of himself when he's not acting like his old father and focuses."

"Hah, I wonder what he's doing right now."

Back at the house on the shore…

Jeff looked around at the mass number of people complaining. He had never been left in charge before of this many people. He pondered on how to deal with each of their problems.

"It's too cold!"

"Nonsense, it's too hot!"

"I'm hungry and we're out of pizza!"

"I'm thirsty and I don't see any fresh water! I only drink fresh water!"

"But you loved drinking my milk. You drank the carton!"

"If anyone's drinking his milk it's me!"

"Not THAT milk!"

"I wanna go outside and play!"

"I'm bored!"

"I wanna play a game!"

"The T.V. won't turn on!"

"I'm just yelling because everyone else is doing it!"

"…I'm actually ok with these conditions…"

Jeff couldn't even hear himself think. He searched his pocket and pulled out a blue gun. "I love being a scientist." He smiled and held up the gun.

Back at Saturn Valley…

"Ok, everything is on board!" Ness yelled. He turned to the doctor. "You sure you wanna stay here doc? It's gonna be a pretty fun battle!"

"No thanks kiddo, I had my fair share of adventure when I was young." The doctor laughed. "You just be careful and don't get any full heads!"

"Ok then! We'll be back before you know it for a party!" Ness chimed. "Ready to go Dungeon Man?"

"Whenever you're ready Ness old boy." Dungeon man said.

As the two teleported away, the doctor heard his phone ringing. He reached into his pocket to find it. At first, he pulled out a small gun. He tossed it aside and kept looking. Next he pulled out a wallet. He tossed it aside and kept searching. As a Mr. Saturn looked through the wallet, the doctor pulled out a Mr. Saturn, who squirmed around. He tossed it aside, and it hit the other Mr. Saturn. Finally, he pulled out his cell phone and answered it.

"Hello?" He asked.

"Doctor is that you?" A feminine voice asked.

"Mrs. Knights, it's been a while!" Dr. Andronauts exclaimed with happiness. "How are you doing? Do you need something fixed? How are the kids lately?"

"I'm doing great, we don't have anything broken at the moment, and Ness and Tracy are fine, thanks for asking." Mrs. Knights replied. "I was wondering if I could ask you a few questions."

"Sure, anything for an old friend. What's on your mind?"

"You haven't mastered time travel have you?"

"I sent your kid into the past along with mine; I think I've gotten close." He chuckled. "In all honesty, I haven't had the need to go into the future or the past. Why do you ask?"

"Well I was wondering if it's possible for our past selves to come here into our time by accident. You know, causing a space-time rip or something else you see on T.V."

"I highly doubt it, not everything you see on T.V. can happen, but I did have blueprints for a time machine back then."

"Did you ever build it?"

"It's been so long I can't remember if I did or not."

"Dammit Loid think, it could only be in the 1980s! May I remind you it's 199x."

The doctor sighed. "It's still been a long time, nevertheless. I guess you know about our little ones being with our old selves huh Ana?"

"YOU KNEW?" The woman screamed in the doctor's ear.

"What did you expect? It was probably something Jeff built in the future! I'm so proud of him."

"Loid…what if something happens to us? We can screw up the timeline of our kids!" Ana exclaimed.

"Ana calm down, they have things under control." Loid told her. ""We were tough kids Ana; we can take care of ourselves."

"I TOLD YOU HE'D SAY THAT!" said a voice in the background.

"Ninten go back to bed!" Ana snapped.

"Oh NOW you want me to go to sleep?" Mr. Knights snapped back.

"I remember you two arguing less when we were kids." Dr. Andronauts smiled.

"I don't, but it's been so long." Mr. Knights remarked.

"Loid we have to talk more often, but I'm afraid I have to go now." Mrs. Knights sighed.

"Aww but why? We haven't even talked yet!" Both men complained at the same time.

"Because I have a Pk Beam Ω ready with Ninten's name on it." She chuckled evilly.

"Wait what?" Ninten asked dumbfounded.

The phone went silent.

"Those two still seem upbeat…" The doctor told himself. "But she does have a point. If something happens to one of us, any one of us, the whole future could be destroyed. That young lad and his friends Jeff told me about may not exist if we die. Perhaps they may be our descendants. It's possible, but also unlikely. Perhaps Ana may not be overreacting this time." He then turned around and saw two Mr. Saturn going through his wallet. "HEY that's my money!" Upon hearing the angry yell, the two Mr. Saturn ran off covered in money. Dr. Andronauts quickly ran after them, in pursuit of his hard earned money.

Back at the shoreline outside of Onnet…

"HALF DUNGEON, HALF MAN, ALL POWERFUL!" Pippi exclaimed as she ran around Dungeon Man.

"My, this girl is super excited." Dungeon Man remarked.

"Pippi come on we don't have much time to play around!" Ninten scolded her. "We gotta go back to the future and train with Lucas and company."

"Aww but I wanna play with the Dungeon Man!" She whined.

"You can play with him before this is over but nows not the time!" Ninten then grabbed Pippi by the waist and carried her, much to her dismay. He put her on Dungeon Man's hand. He then helped Ana, Loid, and Teddy up as well. He, with the help of EVE, also hopped up onto the arm. Eve used her long, extending legs to get up herself.

"What will they think of next in the future?" Ana muttered. "Seriously, we're gonna ride in a thing made of bricks and man."

"Ana you gotta admit this is pretty cool!" Loid exclaimed. "It's a creation of what man created and man itself. It's sheer beauty!" Loid's eyes sparkled as he looked at Dungeon Man.

Teddy slapped Loid, knocking him out of his infatuation. "It's nothing more than a large pile of bricks. I don't see why you're so impressed." He grunted. "You're normally love machines."

"This is a type of machine when you narrow it down!" Loid argue. "Maybe you're just jealous that it's stronger than you!"

"Pffft, I am not!"

"Feeling radar indicates that Teddy is jealous." EVE stated, causing everyone to chuckle except for Teddy.

"Who asked you?" He looked away blushing.

At that moment Paula and Jeff came up to Dungeon Man. The two climbed up and boarded his hand.

"How exciting, we get to go inside Dungeon Man again." Paula clapped her hands together. "Aren't you excited Jeff?"

"But of course, I am more than excited!" Jeff smiled. "With Brick Road-I mean Dungeon Man on our side, we can assure victory."

"When we get back you can fix the hole in our roof." Ness said walking up with Tracy, Picky, and Poo. "Why in the earth's name would you fire a laser gun through the roof we worked so hard to fix?"

"I panicked!" Jeff defensively said.

"It looks like you weren't thinking." Ness offensively said.

At that moment a ringing sound was heard comming from Ness' backpack. He reached inside and pulled out a black phone. After looking at it he answered it and turned around. "Hello?"

"Son, you seem to be putting in alot of effort lately." Said a voice.

"Oh hi Dad." Ness cheerfully responded. "Yeah I guess I am, but we should be putting our abilities to the fullest right?"

"I guess that is important right now haha!" Mr. Knights laughed. "Are you taking Tracy with you?"

"Yes sir, I'll make sure she stays safe."

"Good, no matter what happens, you two are sibilings, and you should have each other's backs at all times. Now how about you save your game before you go for old time's sake?"

"Sure Dad, whatever makes you happy." Ness laughed.

As Ness talked with his father, Tracy looked in her bag and pulled out a red and black drill. On the side of it was the word "Speed". Jeff walked up to her and looked at the drill. "A speed drill?" He asked her.

"Yep, I used my work money to buy this so I could have my own unique weapon!" Tracy beamed. "Ness promised that he'd take me on an adventure one day just like the one he went on, and I wanna be prepared for it! So I brought myself a drill as a weapon. It might bee dangerous dealing with close range enemies, but I don't care. Ness has a bat, Paula has a frying pan, you have a gun, Poo has a sword, and Picky doesn't need one. You gotta admit you don't expect someone to use a drill in battle right?"

Jeff simply nodded in response. "Just be careful, for if that drill gets stuck in an enemy, it may do continuous damage every turn, but you'll be weaponless until it falls out." Jeff warned as he climbed back onto Dungeon Man's hand.

"Guys let's just get ready to go ok?" Tracy said, ignoring Jeff's warning. Ness looked at her as he hung up the phone and walked over.

"Tracy if you come along, I gotta make sure you stay safe. Mom and Dad would kill me if I let you get hurt. You gonna be ok right?" Ness asked with a hint of worry.

"Relax big brother I can hold my ground too!" Tracy whined as she tried to climb up Dungeon Man's hand. Picky picked her up from behind and lifted her up. He then jumped up himself. "See, with a little help, I'll be fine!"

"Trust her Ness; we can look out for her if you need us to." Poo said as he jumped onto the hand as well. Ness let out a groan and said nothing as he double jumped onto Dungeon Man.

"Everyone ready for boarding?" Dungeon Man asked.

"READY!" the group replied.

Raising his hand, Dungeon Man opened his mouth and swallowed the group in a single gulp. As he swallowed, he heard a loud ringing sound; a bright light surrounded Dungeon Man. Within a Pk Flash, the spot were Dungeon Man stood was now empty.

But in the distance from high above, a figure was watching.

"They've got some sort of giant robot with them. He was, they are planning against us. I better go inform master Porky right away…"
