Isn't Shield Breaker a piercing move and not an overhead slamming attack?
Game2002: That was how its animation looks like in Melee, but in my story, I switch between overhead slamming and piercing from time to time.

Chapter 34
I'm going to send you straight to hell!



Large arms made of tear water slammed down Evangeline as she swiftly leaped out of the way to avoid getting crushed. Despite being made of liquid, the massive tear arms managed to smash into the floor and create quite some damage. The arms went Eva as she hopped against a wall and quickly kicked off from it to avoid getting hit.

Landing onto the floor, she ran towards Emonicus who standing in one place doing nothing but crying. "Stop crying already, you big crybaby!" she yelled as she socked him in the face.

POW!

Emonicus tumbled onto the floor from the punch but this only made him cry louder. "BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWL!!!! NOBODY LIKES ME!!!!!! WAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!"

The arms swung in the direction of Eva and she quickly jumped up into the air, but smaller arms came out from the sides of the larger arms and managed to catch her by the legs and then slammed her onto the floor. "Ah!"

Another arm was going to come down on top of her but Dedede quickly got underneath it and swung his hammer at it from below, and the arm splattered into water droplets all over the place. "I never how crying can be so deadly to other people…" Dedede said.

"I didn't need your help!" Eva said to him as she got back onto her feet. "That hit wouldn't have done anything since I'm immortal anyway."

"Is that what you should say to the person who just saved your butt?"

"Who cares?"

The arms came down on top of them again and Eva managed to get away in time, but Dedede didn't see it coming and was smashed into the floor instead. "Dyeh!"

After slamming onto the floor, the arms went after Eva and she quickly leaped over them as they went underneath her and then she ran towards Emonicus who was still crying. "I'm gonna pulverize you until you don't have the strength to cry anymore!" she said angrily. However, the speed of the arms were much quicker than her; one of them came in front of her and caught her within its grasps and then lifted her into the air before slamming her hard onto the floor. "Ah!" And then that same arm swatted her across the room and into the wall.

CRASH!

"Ow… Dammit! I can't believe it!" she growled. "I'm not going to lose to some emo crybaby like you! Doll Master!" She pointed her arms at Emonicus and several strands of very thin and nearly invisible strings shot out from underneath her sleeves. The string went to Emonicus and went around his body, binding him and his arms together. "Now take this!" She swung her hands to the side and Emonicus was pulled into the wall and crashed into it face first. She swung her hands to the other side and Emonicus was pulled across the wall and rammed into it face first again.

As she was going to hurl him across the room again, Emonicus cried even louder and the tear arms broke down into water droplets which shaped themselves into arrows and shot at Eva. "What?!" She had no time to dodge them and was struck all over the body of the water arrows, which hit her as hard as a lead ball fired from a slingshot. "Ow!" And the arrows also cut down the strings in the process, freeing Emonicus from her control.

The tear arms then went above Eva and each of the fingers shaped themselves into fists and came down on top of her like rainwater and she was punched against the floor over and over really hard.

POW SMASH POW WHAM CRASH POW!!!!

"Don't leave the king out of the scene! I deserve more spotlight than any character in this story!" Dedede yelled angrily, breaking the fourth wall in the process. He ran to Emonicus and managed to smash his hammer against his face incredibly hard, and the crying emo flew across the place while the tear arms stopped hitting Eva.

"Ugh… I'm making a fool out of myself here…" Eva growled angrily. "This is the first I've been so badly beaten up! He's really driving me to the point of insanity! I'm going to show him the true power that I possess!" She then shouted to Dedede, "Fatty, you buy me some time! I'll be back in a short while!"

"What did you call me?!" Dedede replied angrily.

"At least I didn't call you fatass! Now buy me some time, dammit!" she said loudly before running through the door that led out of the room.

"Where is she going? She's making me do the fighting myself! But as a great and wonderful king, I'm not going to back down from anyone who attacked me! That guy is asking for war!" He turned to Emonicus and said to him, "Get ready to be clobbered!"

-

In the other room, Eva stood against the wall and got out her cell phone (let's pretend she has one, okay?) and quickly dialed a certain number and then placed it against her ear to wait for a reply. "C'mon… C'mon! Oh, hey! Listen up, old man! There's something I want you to do right this instant!"

-

Back in the other room, Dedede was getting knocked around by the arms. "DYEH!!!" Like giant boxing gloves, the smashed into Dedede from all sides and the poor king couldn't even find a chance to touch the floor with his feet.

All the while, Emonicus just sat down in one place continuing to cry while the tears coming out from the corner of his eyes did all the offense. "WAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!! EVERYBODY HATES ME!!! NOBODY LIKES ME!!!!! BWAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!"

Dedede finally fell down onto the floor but got back up again panting heavily from all the hits that he'd taken. "Ugh… How dare you disrespect a king like me…? You're making me angry!!! When I am angry, nobody gets away from my wrath alive!" Another tear fist came charging towards him and he gathered all his might to swing his hammer at it and splattered it into droplets. "Take that!" But the other arm smashed into him from the side and sent him crashing into the wall. "DYEH!"

CRASH!!!

"Dyeh… Even the king has his limits…" he groaned.

"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!! WHAT SADNESS!!!!! SADNESS!!! LIFE IS A PAIN!!!! THERE IS NO REASON TO LIVE!!!! WAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!" Emonicus cried at the top of his voice while crying.

"I bet you had your fill crying already, jerk," said Eva's voice. Dedede looked up and saw her standing at the doorway to the other room, and there was an aura of darkness coming out from all around her. Smiling evilly, she pointed to Emonicus and said, "Now that I can use magic, you are too late to even apologize to me! I'm going to send you straight to hell right now!"

-

"Eh?" Chachazero realized that she could move her arms and then stood up onto her feet and jumped up and down. "Hey! I can move!"

"Cool!" Parry commented.

"That can only mean one thing! Master has her powers restored!"

-

Meanwhile at Mahora Academy back in Japan, the principle was busy stamping papers every five seconds. When he stamped on one, he would push it aside and then reach for another one to stamp it. "I didn't expect that I would be doing this again…" he said. "Wasn't that ID card I gave Eva enough already? Whatever the case is, please get your job done and not make me do this for the whole day… And keep my granddaughter safe too…"

-

POW! CRASH! BAM!!!

"Falcon Punch!!!" Captain Falcon yelled as he threw his fist right at Kitty, striking him in the face.

"Tekkai!" Kitty hardened his whole body in time and the punch was rendered useless to an extent, and then he threw a punch at CF who ducked down to avoid it.

Kitty hopped back to avoid a leg sweep from him and then zipped at CF again at a fast speed and then tried to fall on top of him. "Soru Crush!" CF leaped away in time and when Kitty stomped the floor, a footprint was embedded in it. Kitty then kicked against the air to fire a wind blade at him. "Rankyaku!"

CF leaped over the wind blade and then did a flying kick in his direction but Kitty used his legs to kick against his leg and pushed him across the air and onto the floor. CF took off at him again and then did a fiery sliding kick. "Falcon Kick!"

Kitty hopped into the and into the air above him to avoid it and then tried to hit him with Rankyaku again, only to miss. After Kitty landed, he jumped at CF very fast speed with one finger pointing at him. "Shigan Javelin!"

CF avoided this by bending his body back and then falling over to the floor, and as Kitty was flying over him, he lifted up both feet and kicked him in the groin from below to knock him into the air. While Kitty was in air, CF leaped up and caught him by the collar and yelled. "Falcon Dive!" And an explosion occurred out of thin air and Kitty was blown back, but he managed to recover by performing a cartwheel in air and then landing.

All the while, the three girls and Kotaro watched from the side and with faces of awe as the two continued to engage in their extremely intense battle. "This fight has been going on for quite a while already…" Yue stated, "And it doesn't look like either side is winning…"

"That cat guy is a very strong one… Even Captain Falcon is no match for him! Guess I should go and help him after all!" Kotaro said, and then he ran towards the battlefield to meet those two. "You're not hogging the spotlight alone! Let me have a go at this too!"

Kitty saw him coming from behind and spun around to go a roundhouse kick. Kotaro leaped up to avoid it and threw his own roundhouse kick in midair into his face, but Kitty caught his leg in time and hurled him across the place. "You're asking for a death wish!" Kitty said.

"Sorry, but I'm not going to die so easily here!" Kotaro claimed.

"Don't push yourself too hard, Kotaro!" CF said to him. "This guy is more than likely beyond your league!"

"Don't worry about me! I'm not going to let a stray cat beat a canine like me! Go get him, my friends!" Black-colored dogs came out from Kotaro's shadow and ran towards Kitty growling and barking loudly.

As the dogs approached, Kitty threw out a Rankyakua and managed to take out some, but a few others jumped over the wind blade and pounced at him. "Shigan Stitch!" Kitty jabbed his finger in the air rapidly and moved it from left to right across the air, hitting every single one that was about to pounce onto him, and they were all knocked back and fell to the floor before disintegrating.

"Howling Knuckle!" Kotaro ran forward and threw a fist full of spiritual energy to hit him, but Kitty quickly used Tekkai to harden his body and soften the impact. " Ngh!"

"Falcon Punch!" CF came running to Kitty from behind and threw forth THE punch. Kitty quickly zipped out of the way using Soru and THE punch ended up hitting Kotaro in the face. "Oops!"

POW!!!

"DOOF!!!" And he shot across the place and crashed into a pillar really hard with a badly swollen face.

"Sorry…" CF apologized to him, and then he turned to glare at Kitty angrily. "You made me hit my friend!"

"Watch out! He's going to get behind you and stab you from behind!" Nodoka shouted to CF.

"What?" CF said curiously. Indeed, Kitty ran behind him in a moment's notice and used Shigan, but thanks to Nodoka's warning from earlier, CF fully avoided getting hit and then threw a punch into his stomach and knocked him back.

"Ugh!" he cried.

"How did you know that?" CF asked Nodoka.

"I can… read the minds and movements of people using my artifact…" she replied, showing him her diary.

"That's pretty handy!"

Nodoka looked at her diary again and said, "He's going to fire two wind blades at once!"

Almost immediately after she said this, Kitty kicked twice using both feet and shot out two wind blades, but CF leaped out of their way to avoid getting hit, and then after landing, he ran up to Kitty and threw his fist that Kitty managed to block using his hand, and then he used his other arm to throw a really fast-moving punch into his chest and sent him flying back across the room and through a door that was at the back. "Ow!"

CRASH!

"Ugh… That hurts…" he cried as he sat back up and rubbed his back. "He's really strong… There must be some way to defeat him…" He looked around the place and saw weapons such as swords, maces, lances, and chains all over. "This must be the weapon storage room…" Suddenly, an idea struck his head. "That's it!"

Back out there, Kitty turned to Nodoka and said, "So you can read movements of other people? That would be an annoyance to the opponent."

"Uh oh…" she cried.

"Hey! You better not come near her or any of us!" Haruna shouted. "Or else…"

"Leave the girls alone!" Kotaro shouted. He came jumping in from the side and gave him a kick to the head and actually scored an actual hit.

"Ow! Why you?!" Kitty angrily turned to him and swung his fist and knocked Kotaro back through the air, but he easily recovered from it after sliding back across the floor.

"I'd make a shame out of myself if I can't protect any girls! I won't let you lay a hand on them no matter what!" he said.

"Die!" Kitty used Soru to move away really fast and it looked like he disappeared.

Kotaro was wondering where he went when Nodoka shouted to him that he was coming in from behind. Kotaro quickly moved aside and sure enough, Kitty popped out of almost nowhere behind him and thrust his finger, which was supposed to hit him, into the floor. "Annoying girl!" Kitty said, and he used Rankyaku in her direction.

"Ya!" The three girls quickly ducked down the wind blade cut through the wall instead.

"I told you not to attack those girls!" Kotaro shouted angrily. He tried to punch Kitty but he hardened his body to avoid taking damage, but Kotaro continued to attack him from all directions in hope of trying to accomplish something. "Dang! This guy really can harden his body like iron!"

Suddenly, something came charging out of the door leading to the weapon room at a really fast speed, and looked like something on fire too. Though Kitty saw it coming, he had no time to react and was struck in the body really hard by it. "GAH!!!" And he soared back across the place and crashed into the wall.

CRAAAAAAAAAAAASH!!!!!

"Whoa! What was that?!" Kotaro said in shock, and he looked at the thing that hit Kitty and saw that it was CF, but there was something different about him. "What the?!"

There was pair of fiery wings on Captain Falcon's back. "Ultimate Falcon," he said.

"What?! What did you do?!" Kotaro asked him. "How come you have wings?!"

"Usually I can only do this if I have my Hunter Spear," CF explained. "But sometimes I thought to myself what if I do not have that weapon with me and I am facing a very tough and seemingly invincible opponent? I need to have something strapped onto my back in order to use it as a medium for this form. Due to the Hunter Spear being unburnable, it is the best choice of medium, but for other things that can be burned, I can only stay in this form until the medium is burned out. In this case, I used a lance and a chain I found in the weapon room to strap around my back. Hopefully this will be enough to defeat him!"

They all looked at the direction of Kitty as he got back up and growled angrily, and then the anthropomorphic cat transformed into a large anthropomorphic Doberman. "What?! He transformed into a dog?!" Haruna said in shock.

"What is he?!" Yue asked.

"Looks like you're getting serious as well," CF said to Kitty. "Let's settle this then!"

-

"What's with you, kid?" Dedede asked Eva. "Why do I see smoke coming out of you?"

"Just watch," she replied. Watch that guy in front of me getting chilled down his bones. Heheheh!"

"YOU WANT ME DEAD!!! I KNEW IT!!! THE WORLD HATES ME!!!! BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!" Emonicus cried out loud, and the tears charged at her for the kill again.

Eva simply smirked and then held up her hand to release a white light out of her palm, and when the water came close, it immediately froze up and shattered. "What the?!" Dedede said in surprise.

"And that's not all!" Eva said. "Ice Earth!" She placed her hand on the floor and massive chunks of ice was formed and moved towards Emonicus. The ice struck him from below and knocked him up into the air and then the ice grew towards him from below and slowly surrounded him until he was encased inside. "Hahaha! Now you know the power that I possess? You've picked the wrong…" But then to her shock, the ice shattered into pieces and Emonicus was once again free, crying at the top of his voice. "What?!"

"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!! MY HEART IS FREEZING TO DEATH!!! HOW I WANT TO DIE IN A FAR AWAY PLACE WHERE NOBODY WILL SEE OR CARE ABOUT ME!!!!" he cried.

The tears moved at her again to attack and she quickly formed an ice wall out of thin air in front of her. The tears which were swirling like a drill crashed into the ice wall and much to her surprise, the ice wall was torn into pieces and then the tears struck her and pushed her into the wall. "YA!!!!"

The tears then pulled back and dived forward again and Eva quickly moved out of the way and then chanted a quick magical incantation before firing a blast of cold wind out of her hand. It touched the tears and turned them into ice, but the ice immediately shattered into pieces and the tears went after her again. Eva quickly set up another ice wall and used it to buy time to escape. The wall was torn down by the tears afterwards.

"What the heck?! My ice is being broken through?!" she gasped. The tear arms came after her and slammed up and down against the floor like giant hammer and Eva had to move around at a fast speed to avoid getting caught. "Looks like attacking these won't do! I'll go for that guy instead! 17 Arrows of Ice!" She pointed her arm at Emonicus and 17 icicles appeared around her and shot forward.

The tears quickly pulled themselves to the front of Emonicus however and spread out to form a water shield and the icicles shattered when they struck it.

"Ice Earth!" Eva slammed her hand onto the floor and sent forth an ice wave again, but the tears charge into them with tremendous force that the wave was broken down into pieces.

Eva quickly leaped high up into the air and then dark mist appeared around her as she shouted, "Spirits of Darkness!" And the dark mist flew over to Emonicus to attack him.

"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!! EVERYBODY LIKES TO MAKE FUN OF ME!!!!" Emonicus cried, and then he started to spin around in place, making his tears spin in circles too and as the speed increased, the tear water formed themselves into the form of a towering waterspout that protected Emonicus from all sides. The dark mist was blown away when it got too near to the swirling water tower.

"Whoa! He can do something like that too?!" Dedede gasped.

"Heh! You're making yourself vulnerable by doing something like that!" Eva said. She raised her arm high up into the air and chanted some magical words before saying out loud, "Eternal Glacier!" When she brought her hand down, the waterspout froze starting from the bottom all the way to the top until the whole thing was encased in ice.

"You froze it all…" Dedede said in awe.

"Heheh! I bet that guy is frozen to death in there!" Eva said with confidence. "It's not something that can be broken down by force so easily unless I snap my finger! I wonder how long he can stay in there before he freezes to death."

"Um… You sure it can't be broken by force…?" Dedede asked. He pointed to the frozen tower and saw that cracks were starting to appear all around it and water slowly drifted down from between the cracks.

Eva was very shocked and surprised to see this. "What the?! It can't be?!"

More cracks started to appear all over the frozen waterspout until the whole thing finally shattered into millions of pieces and water burst out from all over the place and then the whole room was basically witnessing an indoor downpour. Emonicus, who looked unharmed, continued to cry like crazy and his tears poured down like a pair of waterfalls down the sides of his eyes. Eventually, his tears became so strong that he slowly floated up into the air as if they were burners.

"He can fly by crying?!" Dedede gasped.

"THE WORLD!!! IT'S A PAIN!!!! NOBODY LIKES ME!!!!! THE WORLD IS SO DARK AND GLOOMY!!!!" Emonicus cried out loud with his arms spread out wide. "MY HEART IS SO DOWN AND THE SKY IS DARK AND RAINING!!!! IT REPRESENTS MY SORROW!!!! OH THE SORROW FOR ME TO LIVE IN THIS WORLD!!!! THE SORROW OF MY LIFE!!!!! MY LIFE IS NOTHING BUT A COMPLETE FAILURE!!!!! WHAT IS THE POINT OF LIVING??!!! WHAT IS THE MEANING OF LIFE?!?!?!! MY LIFE HAS NO MEANING AT ALL!!!!! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!"

As he continued to cry, the tears started to fill up the room with water and the floor slowly started to flood. "The room will be flooded at this rate!" Dedede cried.

Soon the room was filled with about two inches high of water. To both their surprise, balls of liquid were formed out of the water and shot at them really fast. One hit Dedede and struck him in the face like that of a lead ball and he was knocked down to the floor. A water ball flew at Eva and she quickly eliminated it by thrusting her elbow at it. Another water ball shot at her from the other side and she ducked down followed by jumping back to avoid another one.

Then what appeared to be flying fish made out of liquid formed out of the water and charged at her. Eva quickly flew up high into the air where the flying fish came after her and she shot out icicles from her hand and shot them all down. Suddenly, a liquid arm stretched out of caught her by the left leg. "What the?!" And she was pulled down to the floor and splashed into the water, which was almost filling up the room to a meter high.

Eva poked her head out and spit out the water that got into her mouth and yelled, "What the hell is going on?!"

A large hand made of water rose up before her and slammed down and she quickly swam out of the way. Using her ice magic, she quickly formed an ice raft and got onto it as there was way other place to stand on. Dedede also swam over to the ice raft and got onto it. "Careful! You don't want to make it sink with your weight!" Eva said. "Not that it matters to me since I can fly to stay in air."

"Yeah, sorry for being overweight, okay?" he said with frustration. "But let's not talk about this now!" They both turned to look at Emonicus were suspended in air and crying nonstop, thus slowly filling the room with water.

"What is with that guy?! I can't believe even when I have my magic, I'm having a hard time against him!" Eva said in anger and disbelief. "I don't believe how I can have a hard time with him!"

"Whatever the case is, it's time I whip out my new weapon!" Dedede said. "I had Meta-Knight upgrade my hammer after I lost to you at the tournament just so I can have an easier time clobbering my enemies next time!" He pressed a button at the bottom of the hammer and the wooden surface of the hammerhead shook and burst open, revealing a metallic appearance underneath that was sparkling with electricity. He then reached one hand underneath his coat and got out a metallic mask which he put onto the face.

"What's with that mask?" Eva asked him.

With a smile underneath the mask, Dedede said, "From now on, you shall address me as… Masked Dedede!"
