(The Arena)
"PIKA!"
A bolt of electricity clashed with a dark ball of energy cancelling each other out. Mewtwo took this chance to teleport behind Pikachu and swung his tail around smacking the smaller Pokemon back. Pikachu sprawled around the ground in pain before rolling into a standing position.
With a determined glare, he dashed at Mewtwo. He then did a jump before rolling himself forward using his tail as a natural weapon. Mewtwo thought quickly before blocking the attack with both of his arms.
At this point, the audience was at its loudest point and for good reason. It was the final 2 and both of them were trying their best to win as fatigued as they may be. Said audience were split up and who to cheer for and for good reason. Not only are both finalists representing the Super Smash Bros node but also the same sub-node.
Both Pokemon had earned their cheers. Pikachu by default had a large coming being the official mascot of Pokemon AND one of Nintendo's both recognizable characters but he had just tied Rainbow Dash for the most eliminations in the tournament which means despite his huge fatigue, he had managed to make it to the final two.
Mewtwo just like Pikachu, had gotten his own fan-base by one of the original legendary Pokemon and appearing as a boss in several games. And despite not having an impressive elimination record like his nodal companion, it was nothing to sneeze at. Especially he eliminated people like Hakumen.
Mewtwo launched a small Shadow ball at Pikachu. "Are you confident that you can win? I am far fresher than you."
"Do you honestly think that matters? After coming so far?" Pikachu asked dodging the attack. "I don't care if my body will feel like lead in the morning, I will NOT back down in the Final 2."
Mewtwo smirked before blocking Pikachu's head-butt. "Very well. That is true. But be careful what you say about your body feeling like lead. It just may come true."
"Knowing you, it may be true." Pikachu said trying again with a tail whip. "But I had gone too far to lose now!"
(Eliminated Seating)
"Hang in there, Mewtwo!" Lucario called out. "Use Pikachu's fatigue against him!"
"Come on, little guy!" Sonic the Hedgehog cheered. "Are you just going to come so far only to lose?"
"Don't take your eye off of him, Mewtwo!" Richter Abend instructed.
"Go in for a critical strike, Pikachu!" Agumon yelled.
"Give him one good attack, Mewtwo!"
"Don't allow yourself to get hit, Pikachu!"
"Teleport out of the way, Mewtwo!"
"Pikachu, chase him down!"
Just like the audience, the eliminated fighters were split up and who to support. Even the Super Smash Brothers were divided on who to root for even though no matter what happens it would be a win for them.
Kairi, Sailor Jupiter, Rainbow Dash and Blitz were watching the fight intently.
"So who do you guys think is going to win?" Kairi asked.
"I think Mewtwo." Blitz said. "He looks more brutal AND is not afraid to do what it takes to win. Not even to his own nodal companions."
"Well, personally I am rooting for Pikachu to win." Rainbow Dash grinned.
Sailor Jupiter raised an eyebrow. "It is funny that you want Pikachu to win because not only he eliminated you but if he DOES win, then you will take your record of the most eliminations away from you."
"Hey, he deserves it." Rainbow Dash grinned. "He had faced the same problems I had faced in the tournament so I find it very easy to root."
"No, you only rooting for him because he is a stuffed animal for girls."
The four winced before looking behind them to see Gaston looking down at them.
"Aw, you are just jealous because you only got one elimination!" Rainbow Dash snapped.
"It is not being jealous! It is feeling gipped!" Gaston snapped. "I am one of the most well-known villains in Disney history…"
"You are well-known for a BAD reason…" Kairi muttered.
"…And yet I got showed up by four girly-girls." Gaston said before looking at Blitz. "Whoops, I mean three girls and I think a transsexual."
"A trans-what-now?" Blitz asked in disbelief.
"What? You prefer another term? Sure." Gaston said. "Just don't expect me to use anything masculine."
Blitz gritted his razor-sharp teeth in anger. "Shut up or I will punish you!"
Gaston let out a hearty laugh. "Ha! A cowardly mutt who always hides his tail between his legs punishes the Great Gaston! I love to see you try!"
Blitz narrowed his eyes.
"NO ONE THROWS PEPPERMINT SHAKES LIKE GASTON!"
The girls and Gaston jumped as Blitz threw his shake forward. It then hit Tai-Lung in the head spilling the contents of his shake onto the surprised snow leopard. With a feral snarl, he glared up. Getting up from his seat, he made his way up to see Gaston's seat.
"So no one angers people like Gaston." Tai-Lung said darkly. "Let's see if no one takes punishment like Gaston."
With that, he grabbed Gaston by the scruff of his neck and dragged him up the stairs with Gaston kicking the whole time. Blitz gave a smug smirk before turning around. He then saw the girls giving him strange looks.
"What? I SAID I was going to punish him." Blitz shrugged. "I never said that I would be the punisher."
The girls rolled their eyes despite having small smirks at the same time.
(Announcer's Booth)
"Well, it came a little earlier than expected but I can't believe it." Tinyrocket said. "The Final two."
"Yeah and look!" Orange-Ratchet pointed out. "Not only are both fighters representing the same node, they represent the same sub-node."
"And what I gathered, it is the closest to a Pokemon main character to the antagonist of the first game right?" SSBFreak asked.
"Yep. A classic battle perfect for a good finale." Orange-Ratchet said.
"Yeah…" Tinyrocket said looking at his phone.
"What's wrong?" SSBFreak asked.
"I called the security team earlier and all Ally said was don't worry, THIS time they will make peace." Tinyrocket said.
Orange-Ratchet raised an eyebrow. "Sus-pi-cious!"
SSBFreak shook his head. "And knowing our luck, we will always be in the dark."
(The Arena)
Pikachu launched a bolt of electricity at Mewtwo who quickly swung his hand upwards using his Confusion move sending the same bolt of electricity back the electric mouse striking him back.
"You of all people should know better than to use projectiles against me." Mewtwo scolded.
Pikachu got up narrowing his eyes. "Very well, let's see you face off to this!"
With that, he started to dash straight at Mewtwo. The psychic Pokemon ready himself for another attack.
But instead, Pikachu ran around him. With his eyes, Mewtwo turned around before for Pikachu to literally run circles around him. Mewtwo looked around trying to keep up.
"Pika!" Pikachu shouted sending a bolt of electricity at the confused Mewtwo. The feline-like creature screamed before taking the bolt to the side. Hearing that his attack was a success, he sent another bolt of electricity into Mewtwo's torso.
Mewtwo cried in pain before receiving several bolts to his body. After a few bolts, he decided that enough was enough. He quickly teleported out of the way. However, the moment he did so, Pikachu ran towards him.
That was when Mewtwo pointed his finger at the canvas in front of Pikachu created an explosion sending his opponent flying back on his back. Mewtwo smirked before floating over where Pikachu laid unmoving. With a smirk, he got ready to throw him out of the ring.
Until Pikachu slowly opened his eyes quickly realizing what was going on. Thinking quickly, he spun around in place surging himself with electricity. Mewtwo yelled in pain before floating back allowing Pikachu to get up and charge towards Mewtwo. However, the legendary lashed his tail out smacking Pikachu in the face.
After the rodent had recovered from the attack, the two glared each other down. Both of them were feeling the pain of each other's attacks along with the pain of the many people they battled to get here. However, they know that they couldn't back down now.
(Hotel; Eggman Nega's Room)
Eggman Nega gave a dark smirk before pushing a button on his machine. He then sent a giant pink laser at Blaze the Cat. Acting quickly, she raised her hands engulfing them in fire.
On any normal day, this wouldn't even do much but Blaze had the chaotic power inside of him. However, Eggman Nega also had it in his machine so she was having trouble trying to hold her ground. Eggman Nega then pushed another button sending several missiles at Blaze. The feline's eyes widened.
BOOM!
The explosion sent Blaze flying backwards towards the wall leaving an unflattering mark on it. Blaze groaned before propping herself on her hands. She weakly looked up to see Eggman Nega charging at her.
Widening her eyes, she sent a large stream of fire with one hand striking Eggman Nega forcing the mad scientist back. Blaze quickly then got up and charged toward his enemy striking the machine with a series of fiery punches. However, the machine stood its ground.
"My, seeing my machine and you use the power I made me happy that I did so." Eggman Nega smirked. "Now to extract it from you."
Blaze growled. "Like I would ever let you have something so dangerous! You have to kill me!"
Eggman Nega's smirk had grown bigger. "Be careful what you wish for, darling."
Ally Gator growled angrily before throwing a punch at Dr. Cortex. Only for a force field to surrounded him stopping the attack.
"Oh? Was that a breeze or your attack?" Cortex asked with a yawn.
Ally fumed. "Tough talk from someone who is hiding behind a force field! Come out and fight like a man!"
Cortex laughed. "Oh, you simple naïve girl. That is what minions are for."
With that, he deactivated his shield to shoot a few shots at Ally's chest. The boxer took the attacks before staggering back in pain. After recovering the attack, she growled before punching forward.
Only to hit Cortex's force field again.
"Miss Gator, I know that your career revolves around getting hit in the head." Cortex said shaking his head. "But are you really that stupid?"
Ally growled. As much as she wanted to try again, she needed to find a way around Cortex's force-field but how.
Suddenly, she had gotten an idea in her. Punching her fists together, she summoned yellow energy around her gloves. Cortex saw this and laughed.
"And whoop-dee-freaking-doo. A power-up." Cortex said rolling his eyes. "Try as you must but you can never break through my…"
That was all he got out before Ally punches forward. Much to his shock, he sent the force field rolling backwards. And by doing so, it sent him rolling around in the force field until the ball crashed into a wall. Cortex fell onto his face with his shield fading.
Ally laughed seeing this. "I was hoping that my Bulldoze power-up would help but MAN, I didn't expect THAT!"
Kanji Tatsumi stepped back holding his folding chair in front of him. Rarely was he scared in a fight but his latest opponent was freaking him out.
"Come on, boyo!" N. Gin cheered before pouncing at Kanji. "Gimme some more!"
Kanji yelped before swinging his chair at N. Gin's face knocking him down onto his face. However, N. Gin immediately got up much to Kanji's horror with a grin.
"Oh, baby!" N. Gin grinned. "That felt good! More! I want more!"
Kanji grimaced not knowing how to react. "A-all right! Take this! Take-Mikazuchi!"
With that, he summoned his muscular skeleton persona. He then wrapped his large arms around in a huge bear-hug engulfing the both of them in electricity.
"Hoo yeah!" N. Gin yelled. "Feeling so good!"
Kanji winced in disgust. "How do I know if I even affecting this guy? Where's Teddie and Rise when you need them!?"
Vivi Orniter yelped before ducking underneath the orb. He looked up only to be smacked in the face in the face by a giant tuning fork. The adolescent sprawled onto the pain before weakly looking up to see Nefarious Tropy standing over himself with a smug smirk.
"Why did Tinyrocket assigned a child onto a security team?" N. Tropy taunted.
Vivi looked up. "I know that I am not one of the best choices but I have to stop you."
N. Tropy scoffed. "Naïve little boy. You don't know what you are up against."
Vivi gulped nervously before using his Focus move to strength his spells. He then started to cast a spell. He then sent a fireball just in time to negate the energy ball. N. Tropy then went on the offensive and lunged at the boy with his strange weapon.
Vivi yelped before jumping back to avoid the attack. Thinking quickly, he swung his staff at N. Tropy's legs. Just like a tree, N. Tropy fell down hard. With a groan, he quickly turned around. Only for Vivi to send a gust of cold wind into his face. The time traveller yelped as his face was blinded by frost. Vivi saw this and ran forward.
"Get her, Branky!" Mel shouted sending her wolf puppet forward. Branky then opened her mouth and bit Nina Cortex on the arm sicking her teeth in.
"Oh no, you bitten me on my arm!" Nina said sarcastically. "My MECHANICAL arm!"
With that, she extended her free arm into Mel's stomach knocking Nina away. The brunette sprawled backwards on her back. She weakly looked up at the ceiling. Suddenly, she felt her leg being pulled forward.
Mel looked up to see Nina using her mechanical arm to pull towards her. With a yelp, she used her free leg to kick Nina in the face forcing her to let go. Mel then got up.
"Branky, now!" Mel shouted.
"Right!" The puppet smirked. With that, she breathed out fire from her mouth. Despite startled, Nina quickly raised her arms to block the stream of fire.
"What the?" Nina asked in disbelief. "What kind of voodoo is THAT?"
"It is not voodoo, you doodoo!" Branky said slamming her head into Nina's own.
Hunter paused before sighing in annoyance. Getting out an arrow from his quiver, he fired it at Rilla Roo who yelped and ducked underneath it. With a growl, the hybrid charged himself forward at the cheetah. Acting quickly, Hunter did a baseball slide knocking Rilla Roo off of his feet.
"Hey!" Hunter said getting up. "How come I get the big oaf?"
"You rather fight the kinky cyborg!?" Kanji shouted back.
Hunter paused. "Good point.
He then turned to Rilla Roo getting up. Shrugging, he dashed straight at Rilla Roo and smacked him in the face with his bow before flipping kicking his opponent in the chin.
Rilla Roo stepped back and stopped himself. With a growl, he spun around in place using his kangaroo tail to knock the surprised Hunter onto his back. Rilla Roo jumped up in joy before grabbed Hunter off the ground and grabbing him in a bear-hug.
Hunter cried out in pain feeling the pain in his back trying desperately to break free. Rilla Roo smirked enjoying every moment of Hunter's misery. Hunter continuing struggling.
Then, he had managed to get his free hand loose. Acting quickly, he punched Rilla Roo forcing him to drop him. As the hybrid let go of the archer, the latter took a few seconds to breathe in and out before standing up straight.
Narrowing his eyes, Hunter ran over to the stunned gorilla-kangaroo and leaped onto his shoulders with both of his hands. Swinging his body forward, he gave Rilla Roo a harsh knee to the face.
Blaze quickly summoned large flames to take down several missiles and beams heading her way. In response to the attack, she sent a large wave of fire at Eggman Nega's machine forcing him to stagger back.
"My, you are using the power well." Eggman Nega said.
Blaze narrowed her eyes. "Better than you would at least."
"Still as sharp-witted as always." Eggman Nega chuckled. "However, this battle is mine."
"How so?" Blaze snapped.
Eggman Nega's smirk had gotten bigger as he pulled out a familiar yellow gem. Blaze's eyes widened recognizing it as a Sol Emerald. Particularly the same Sol Emerald that easily defeated.
"Adieu." Eggman Nega said throwing the Sol Emerald at Blaze's feet. The princess yelped before holding her arms in front of her bracing herself for the unbearable pain she was about to go through.
But it never came. Slowly putting her arms away from her face, she saw that Eggman Nega was just as confused as her.
"Why are you not in pain?" Eggman Nega asked in disbelief. "You should be in agony because of the high amount of power you had."
Blaze paused just as confused. Raising her eyebrow, she crouched down and made her way slowly towards the Sol Emerald. Much to her surprise, she was able to grab it.
"How… How is this even possible?" Eggman Nega quizzed. "I know that part of the power was left behind but that shouldn't be enough to negate the negative parts of it!"
Blaze paused. Didn't Kanji say that Tiny had a red light leaving his body after his battle with Barbatos Goetia? Could that why that she wasn't affected by the Sol Emerald?
She then smirked.
"It is time to tip the scales!" Blaze shouted holding the Sol Emerald with both hands. Eggman Nega stepped back not liking where was going.
With that, she sent out a giant feline-shaped flame at Eggman Nega's machine collided with it causing a knockback so big that it sent the mad scientist flying out of his machine and straight into a wall. He was long unconscious before he slid off it.
The machine had it worst as it was engulfed in a giant pillar fire. Blaze looked in awe thankful that it wasn't catching on anything. When the pillar slowly stopped, the machined stood burned all over. She also noticed a small red orb floating up from it and slowly disappearing.
Nodding her head, she turned around to see how the security team was doing. Ally was holding Cortex by the collar punching the unconscious mad scientist several times in the face. Kanji sat down panting heavily as N. Gin laid down unconscious despite having a satisfied smile on his face. Vivi sent a thunderbolt into N. Tropy's chest sending him crashing into the wall while one kick from Mel was more than to enough to send Nina out of commission. Finally, Hunter placed his foot on Rilla Roo's prone form.
Blaze gave a small smile. "We did it…"
With that, she collapsed on her side much to the security team's concern.
"Blaze!" Ally shouted throwing Cortex away like a rag doll and running over to Blaze along with the others.
When they reached her, they noticed something. A familiar red orb slowly floating away from Blaze's body all the way to the ceiling. Before it could touch it, he disappeared.
"So… Is that it?" Hunter asked. "Did we win?"
Ally gave a small smirk before picking up the unconscious Blaze.
"Yeah… We won."
(Hotel; Hallway)
Fox McCloud flipped backwards to avoid a chain with a spiked ornament on the end. At the same time, he got out his blaster and fired several shots at Black Doom. The demon grunted in pain before he summoned a ring of six purple balls before releasing it at his enemy.
Fox smirked before activating his Deflector to send the projectile back at Black Doom striking him multiple times. Seeing the demonic entity hit by his own attack, he used his Fox Illusion to zoom over to him and do a series of punches and kicks.
Black Doom grunted before finding an opening and smacking Fox in the face causing him to stagger back. The vulpine looked up to see Black Doom putting his hands together. Fox yelped as he leapt to the side narrowly avoid a dark purple beam.
"Face it, mortal. You cannot beat me!" Black Doom taunted. "You may be a fox but you can still bleed and die like a human."
Fox narrowed his eyes. "I had faced the likes of Andross and the Aparoid Queen. You are literally a small fry compared to them."
Black Doom roared. "How dare you!? I will skin you!"
Meanwhile, Samus used her arm cannon to block a stab from Jivatma's stretched arms. Returning the favour, she fired a missile at the alien. However, he got onto his hands and knees and crawled like an insect at Samus.
Acting quickly, Samus got into her Morph Ball also dropping a bomb. By the time, Jivatma realized what happened, the bomb made a small explosion knocking Jivatma down. Samus came out of her Morph Ball form and aimed her arm cannon at Jivatma placing her foot on his chest.
Jivatma merely scoffed before grabbing Samus' foot. With one good yank, he felt the bounty hunter onto her rear.
"Give up, Jivatma!" Samus said leaping to her feet. "You know I can endure your attacks."
"You can, yes." The dark being smirked before also getting up. "But that doesn't mean you can win. The psychic boy had eliminated me. Not you."
Samus growled. "Keep talking! It gives me more motive to blast that disgusting smirk off of your face."
With that, she swung her arm cannon at Jivatma at the same time activating her flamethrower. Jivatma took the attack to the chest followed by a smack to the head forcing him to stagger back.
"Dhaos Laser!"
Flynn Scifo and Chloe Valens both ran in opposite directions avoiding a light blue beam from Dhaos.
"Demon Fang!"
"Demon Fang!"
At almost the same time, the two knights swung their respective swords sending a shockwave each at Dhaos. The sorcerer scoffed before kicking away the projectiles. However, this left him open for Chloe to run up and slashed him in the torso.
The blonde man cried out in pain before floating back. Chloe rushed over to continue the attack but Dhaos was ready and swerve to the side before delivering a series of punches to Chloe's face before booting her away.
"Mistral Soul!"
Dhaos' eyes widened. In the time he took to keep off Chloe, he didn't Flynn casting a spell. Suddenly, green balls of wind surrounded himself before striking his body. Dhaos cried in pain but quickly recovered but not fast enough.
"Sword Rain!" Chloe shouted stabbing Dhaos several times in the upper body. Normally this would be injured, if not killed most people but Dhaos was no ordinary man. With a snarl, he punched the ground stunned Chloe before kicking her away. Flynn was quick to run to his side.
"Chloe, are you all right?" Flynn asked concerned helping his fellow knight up.
"Yeah…" She winced. "Even when I am stabbing him, he still managed to swat me away."
"Don't worry, just keep attacking." Flynn said. "His main strong point is his magic. We can't let him cast a single spell."
"Indeed. Too bad Dhaos won't let us disrupt him." Chloe said narrowing her eyes.
"Fear me!" Jivatma shouted sending a large dark ball of energy at Samus who took hard sending him flying into the wall. The villain wasn't done yet as he stretched his hand grabbing Samus' foot. Jivatma then pulled her towards him and threw her into the air before stretching his arm out ready to stab her.
However, Samus rolled in mid-air with some kind of yellow energy around her narrowly avoiding the attack. Samus then unrolled herself and slammed her arm cannon onto Jivatma's head on the way down.
Jivatma grunted in pain before stabbing his hand into Samus' chest. However, all it did was cause a scratch.
"You know how much of a tool you made yourself look." Samus said flatly before punching him in the face forcing him to stagger back. With that, she started to charge up energy in her arm cannon. Jivatma looked up and ran towards Samus.
Meanwhile, Fox literally ran around circles Black Doom as he fired several projectiles at him with each other missing.
Needless to say, Black Doom was getting frustrated. "Hold still and fight like a man!"
"Okay." Fox said stopping in front of Black Doom and punching him in the face followed by a flip kicking his non-existent chin.
Black Doom flew through the air before self-righting himself. He then lashed his chain wrapping it around the stunned Fox's wrist. He then pulled him towards and grabbed the vulpine by his neck. With his enemy in his grasp, he started to surge dark energy into Fox.
Black Doom gave a hidden smirk enjoying Fox's pain. "Any less words before you breathe your final breath, mortal?"
"Y-Yeah…" Fox said weakly. "F-F-Fire."
Black Doom raised a non-existent. "What in the Netherworld does THAT…"
That was all he got out before Fox started to engulf his entire body in fire. Before Black Doom had a chance to react, Fox charged into his torso.
At the same time, Jivatma felt the full brunt of Samus' fully-charged Charge Shot. The former and Black Doom fell back until they hit back-first knocking the both of them out. Fox and Samus both panted heavily. Once they made sure that their enemies weren't getting back up, they both turned to see the victorious side was already decided.
"Tride!" Dhaos shouted sending several triangles at Flynn and Chloe who quickly raised their swords to block the incoming projectiles. Chloe then noticed Dhaos casting a spell.
"Oh no, you don't! Demon Fang Blast!" Chloe shouted before swinging her sword sending a large shockwave at Dhaos not only interrupting his attack and sending him on one knee. The two knights then advanced forward to attack.
"Hidden!" Dhaos shouted summoning a black and white pillar of light around him. When Flynn and Chloe went to attack, their blades merely bounced off.
"Dhaos Corridor!" Dhaos shouted slamming his fist on the ground creating a large shockwave that sent Flynn and Chloe flying into walls. Dhaos smirked before he started to cast a spell. By the time, the two sword-fighters snapped out of their daze, it was too late.
"Ray!" Dhaos shouted summoning several pillars of light to strike down. Acting quickly, Flynn scooted away to Chloe and used his shield to block at the pillars of light sending towards them. When the attack was done, the two got up.
"Demon Fang!" Flynn shouted sending a shockwave at Dhaos. The blonde man scoffed before kicking it away.
However, this was a distraction for Flynn and Chloe to run over.
"Tiger Blade!" Flynn and Chloe shouted as one swinging their swords upwards acting Dhaos by surprise and knocking them into the air.
"Sword Rain Alpha!" Flynn and Chloe shouted stabbing Dhaos multiple times with their swords before swinging them downwards onto the ground. Not even Dhaos could stay conscious after an attack like that.
"Well, that is him done." Chloe said in relief before turning to see Fox and Samus. "Oh, you are done!"
"Yeah. Now we have to find Snake!" Samus snapped. "That guy can't take Bison by himself!"
"Have faith." Flynn said. "Snake was the one who formed together our party."
"Even still, let's go see if we can help him." Fox said before looking to the side. "Snake, Luigi, please hang in there."
(The Arena)
Pikachu screamed before flying out of the ring. Thinking quickly, he used his Quick Attack to zoom back into the ring much to Mewtwo's annoyance. Deciding to try again, he started to charge up purple energy in his hands.
Mewtwo then launched a fully-charged Shadow Ball at Pikachu. However, the latter used his small size to his advantage ducking down to allowing the large projectile to go through. Deciding it was his turn to attack, he dashed over to Mewtwo and did a jumping head-butt.
Mewtwo swung his claw at Pikachu knocking the small mouse to the side. He then smacked Pikachu into the canvas with his long tail. The mouse Pokemon cried out in pain before weakly getting up. Mewtwo scratched at Pikachu again only for the latter to flip back.
"Hold still!" Mewtwo demanded.
"Forget it, Mewtwo!" Pikachu scolded. "I have one of the biggest franchises in the Pokemon series! I can't disappoint my fans!"
"Well, I have fans too!" Mewtwo scolded. "I may not show it but I refuse to let myself lose."
"Perhaps, but determination could only get you so far." Pikachu said charging up electric energy. He then launched himself in a flying head-butt at Mewtwo.
The feline-like creature merely smirked before swinging his hand upwards literally spinning Pikachu around in place and having him fall flat on his face. Pikachu slowly looked up to see Mewtwo floating over.
"PIKA!"
Mewtwo's eyes widened before teleporting out of the way and not a moment too soon as Pikachu summoned a giant bolt of thunder on himself just missing Mewtwo.
The latter reappeared and quickly floated towards his smaller opponent engulfing his hands in purple energy. Pikachu then sprang to life and flipped in place smacking Mewtwo in the face. The cat floated back and panted heavily.
Pikachu and Mewtwo glared at each other. The battle was coming to an end soon and they wanted to be the one to get it.
(Hotel; Bison's Room)
Luigi yelped before ducking underneath Vega's claw. Shooting himself forward, the plumber head-butted Vega in the stomach hard. With a mouth of painful air, Vega staggered back holding his gut with his free hand.
Growling behind his mask, he flipped himself onto the wall and bounced off of it at an alarming speed. Luigi was too stunned to move and himself getting grabbed into an aerial suplex. Vega got up as Luigi struggled to do the same. The matador then stomped his foot onto Luigi's stomach forcing him to cough out a bit of blood.
Vega smirked darkly behind his masked before he continued on the poor man's body. Despite Luigi keep coughing in pain, he had somehow managed to grab Vega's leg. Acting quickly, he surged the matador with electricity. Vega cried in pain before stepping back allowing Luigi to get up holding his stomach.
"I will not lose to someone who is so ugly!" Vega roared.
"And I will-a not lose to someone who cares more about appearances than… ANYTHING!" Luigi countered.
Vega snarled before rolling at Luigi and slashing him with the torso causing the younger Mario brother to cry out in pain. While extremely narcissistic, Vega had bragging rights about his lethal speed. Vega pounced to go in for the kill.
Until Luigi spun his arms around knocking Vega straight into a wall. As the ninja peeled himself off the wall, Luigi ran at Vega flailing his arms around striking him multiple times.
Vega grunted in pain before grabbing out of desperation. Thinking quickly, he turned around slamming Luigi in the wall.
"When I get through with you, you won't be able to keep the title of "Not-Red Mario" anymore." Snake said darkly.
This caused a nerve in Luigi's mind. Acting quickly, he jumped out of Vega's grasp and wall-jumped off the ground. Startled, Vega spun around kicking out of desperation but Luigi easily caught the kick. The tall man swung his hands out flipping Vega over but the braided man flipped back to recovery. He then leaped onto the wall to pounce at Luigi intending to run him through.
A rather rare case but Luigi merely narrowed his eyes. Using his jumping ability, he leaped up allowing Vega to go under him. Luigi then allowed himself to drop onto the back pinning him into the ground hard.
Vega cried out in pain and Luigi got off of him and hauled him to his feet with one hand. The plumber glared daggers into Vega's dazed eyes.
"And this one's for Espio." Luigi said engulfing his fist in fire.
POW!
Two halves of a broken mask fell to the ground following by Vega's prone body and Luigi landing in an awkward position.
"Psycho Crusher!" Bison shouted spiralling straight at Solid Snake surrounded by energy. The mercenary's eyes widened before ducking down the ground. Bison broke out of the attack to stomp onto the man's back making him way cry out in pain.
"Admit it, you are out of your league." Bison sneered.
"I had taken down lots of super-powered chumps before." Snake winced.
"That is because you had your little gadgets." Bison taunted. "Without them, you would just be a man."
Snake growled before rolling to the side out of Bison's grip and leaped to his feet punching Bison in the face. The red-clad man stepped back and recovered in time to block another punch. Grabbing Snake, he threw him in a wall.
Snake groaned before looking up. His eyes then widened when Bison flipped forward while laughing. Thinking quickly, he rolled to the side allowing the dictator to kick the wall leaving cracks in it. Snake quickly grabbed the man's leg.
Bison scoffed before kicking Snake in the face knocking him away. The brown-haired man sprawled across the ground in pain. He weakly looked up with a trail of blood in his mouth. Bison laughed as he floated over with his arms crossed.
"Now do you get it?" Bison asked. "Without your toys, you are not a true fighter."
"I AM a true fighter." Snake said. He then smirked weakly before holding up a device. Bison looked in confusion as Snake pushes it.
The device that Snake had planted on Bison's leg had exploded engulfing Bison before the latter collapsed to the ground. With a small groan, he felt something bounced across his body. He then turned his head and once he did, his eyes widened in horror.
Three grenades were lying in front of them. All once, they all exploded knocking Bison back even further until he landed on his back. He groaned as Snake climbed onto his body.
"I just prefer the less direct approach." Snake said before he started to punch Bison's face in. The dictator grunted in pain before kicking Snake off of him. Bison then got up and gave Snake a hard kick to the midsection. As Snake's eyes widened in pain, he quickly kicked Snake in the back with his other leg and spiking him in the canvas.
Snake groaned laying down the ground staring up at the ceiling. He then saw Bison teleported over him. Snake's eyes widened before rolling backwards narrowly avoiding being smashed into the ground. But Bison booted him away.
"Fool! You are years from being as strong as the Almighty Bison!" Bison taunted.
Snake weakly looked up and paused.
"Perhaps you are right." He said.
He then smirked.
"So we just have to be smarter than the Almighty Bison, won't we?"
With that, he sprang to his feet and lunged at Bison. Taken back by the move, Bison couldn't do anything as Snake grabbed him and threw him into some kind of wall. Bison groaned before holding his head.
"What do you hope to accomplish with a random throw?" Bison asked.
"Look where you landed in." Snake smirked.
Bison raised an eyebrow before looking around. His eyes then widened when he found that he was inside of the machine he used to teleport Luigi in this room. He looked ahead in horror when he saw Snake holding a grenade launcher.
"Can't say you will be missed!" Snake said.
With that, he pushed the trigger sending a trigger at the machine. All Bison could do was look in horror.
BOOM!
Snake and Luigi watched as the machine along with Bison was engulfing in an explosion. They patiently waited for the smoke to clear expecting Bison to be out cold. But instead he was gone. No signs of him gone in the remains of the machine.
"Where… Where did you go?" Snake asked in disbelief. "There was no way that the explosion had made his body disappear."
"That machine…" Luigi piped up. "That was-a the same machine he used to make sure that he teleported me to here instead of the Recovery Room."
"So what does that mean?" Snake asked.
"I don't-a know. I honestly don't-a know where he could be." Luigi said.
Snake narrowed his eyes. "Well, wherever he is, he deserves it. Luigi, let's go. The others are waiting for us."
Luigi nodded before the two walked out of the room completely ignoring Vega 's prone form.
(The Arena)
Mewtwo cried out in pain as his body surged with his body. As he floated back, Pikachu did a flying head-butt in his stomach. Mewtwo coughed a couple of times floating back. Using his tail, he smacked Pikachu upwards sending him high into the air.
Mewtwo then floated up to spike him down but Pikachu self-righted himself and swung his tail barely managing to parry the attack.
"You are as strong as ever, Pikachu." Mewtwo said. "However, I have the upper-hand."
"How so?" Pikachu asked. "Despite my fatigue, I had proven to keep up with all of your moves."
"I know." Mewtwo said before smirking. "But can you keep up with THIS one?"
With that, he pulled out a Smash Ball much to everyone's surprise, especially Pikachu's.
"A Smash Ball?" Pikachu asked in disbelief. "Please don't tell me you are going to try and use a Final Smash!"
"Of course!" Mewtwo said. "I may not know what will happen but it showed that it could work for the Digimon AND the Power Stone characters."
With that, he crushed it with his psychic powers. Everyone looked in awe as an aura surrounded Mewtwo.
"Now know true fear!" Mewtwo called out as he floated higher with several Shadow Balls surrounding him. Mewtwo then launched a couple of projectiles at Pikachu. The electric rodent yelped before leaping to avoid the attacks and they made big impacts into the canvas.
Mewtwo floated over to Pikachu launching more Shadow Balls. Pikachu continue to dodge the attacks but found himself being tackled by Mewtwo.
The mouse Pokemon cried in before flying straight into a turnbuckle. He groaned before weakly looking up feeling more hurt than ever. His eyes widened to see Mewtwo charging at him.
Thinking quickly, he zoomed to the side of Mewtwo as the psychic feline launched a Shadow Ball into the turnbuckle destroying most of it. Mewtwo then spun around sending another Shadow Ball.
This time, the attack connected with Pikachu sending the small rodent sprawling across the ground in pain. Mewtwo floated over with a small smile.
"It was more than a good fight but in the end, only one will win." Mewtwo said.
With that, he threw another Shadow Ball at Pikachu.
Until the Shadow Balls around him disappear signalling that his Final Smash was done. Pikachu saw this and knew this was his chance.
"PIKA!"
Everyone gaped in awe as a bolt of lightning struck Pikachu hitting Mewtwo in the progress. Mewtwo flew straight out of the ring. He tried to teleport back but couldn't find the strength.
Mewtwo landed on a playground at an elementary school. He looked around. Suddenly, he heard light sobbing.
Looking down, he found that he landed on top of Nanette Manoir who was now crying her eyes out.
"It is not fair!" Nanette sobbed. "Why is all of this happening to me?"
Mewtwo paused. "Don't worry… It is over."
Back in the arena, Pikachu was on all fours panting heavily looking like he was about to faint at any moment. He looked around at the silent gaping crowd.
"It's over! It's over!" Tinyrocket yelled.
"This fighter had survived more than three-hundreds fighters and still managed to be the last one standing!" Orange-Ratchet announced.
"The winner of the first Battle of the Luminaries is…" SSBFreak said.
"Pikachu!" The announcers said in unison.
The entire audience immediately erupted in cheers. Pikachu could hear the audience chanting "Pika-Pika-Pikachu!". Despite extremely exhausted, he still found the strength to wave happily to the crowd.
Suddenly, he heard a noise. Looking around, he found that the force-field protecting the audience and the portal underneath the ring had both disappeared. Pikachu smiled before climbing back up the ramp being the only one not to fall into a random node.
Pikachu slowly made his way up the ramp on all fours. He smiled before looking around at the crowd praising him with the cheers.
The cheers of a champion.
