SUPER SMASH BROS. Civil War
Chapter 39: Fallen
Enter Tabuu
"...I am Tabuu," Tabuu gave out his introduction to the Smashers. "I rule this dimension as my absolute kingdom, and control the very fabric and nature of its existence," he explained.
"D-does that mean y-you're...?!" Captain Falcon said in fear.
"Yes. I am the king… and a god," he spoke with a slightly booming voice.
"So how strong are you, Mr. King God?" asked a cocky Palutena.
"Stronger than you can ever imagine. Stronger than a pantheon of gods put together. Stronger than reality itself," he stated ever so methodically.
"O-o-okay…" the goddess quietly responded. She trembled in the wake of how strong he was. She was able to sense his true power, which felt endless.
"If any of you possess the ability to detect my true power, you'd be petrified with fear," he added.
"I can absolutely sense it!" Ness fell back.
"It is inevitable to resist such infinite power. I simply cannot be killed. The same cannot be said for you, however," Tabuu's words horrified everyone even more.
"That can't be! There must be one way you can die!" shouted Bowser.
"I have no weaknesses. And you are in my path of conquest. So now… you must die…" Tabuu continued to tap into everyone's hearts.
"P-please! Please don't hurt us! We're sorry for what we've done," Pit begged.
"You have committed transgressions against my rule. And that cannot go unchecked! Your punishment will be quick and painless!" Tabuu raised his voice.
"That'll be the day. Even if you're a god as you say you are, you can't kill a nonbeliever like me," Snake spoke up.
That's when Tabuu shot a golden laser straight through his chest. Despite having bulletproof armor, Snake was pierced by the deadly attack.
"Did you believe that?" Tabuu lightly smirked.
"Blaaa!" Snake spat blood and collapsed.
"Snake!" exclaimed Samus, rushing to him.
"You monster!" Samus charged up her Zero Laser and blasted the energy beam at Tabuu.
"Trying to avenge each other puts you through the same fate," Tabuu reflected the Zero Laser with his palm and shot it back at Samus with twice the power. Samus was hit, but she and Snake were lucky to be alive.
"P-P-P-PK… Starstorm!" Ness created a meteor shower of PSI and threw it at Tabuu.
"Doesn't work, little one," Tabuu was unaffected by the Starstorm.
"Now. PK Starstorm!" he copied PK Starstorm by creating his own shower of energy and rained down on the Smashers. It was good everyone survived.
"No way. He used the Starstorm?! How does he know that?!" Ness was even more frightened.
"It's not over yet!" Sonic smirked, reaching into the brown bag tied to his waist.
"...Disgusting blue rodent. Get out of my sight," Tabuu shot a gleaming dark blue beam at Sonic, hitting his chest.
"Aaaaaugh!" the blue hedgehog quickly fell down in pain.
"Even if you strike us all down, we'll still keep getting up! Because we still have hope. And you can never take that away!" Ike proclaimed.
"No. You have no hope because there is no hope! My power reaches beyond this realm. I have the power to rip through the fabric of other dimensions and convert them into Subspace. I can control my subjects throughout reality. I even have the power to destroy the fabric of this reality with a single thought," his booming voice literally terrified everyone.
"Enough of these petty attempts at escaping death. No more warm-ups," Tabuu was done playing around.
"Dammit all! I realized the force we were up against would be strong. But, it's-it's… he's on a whole other level," Bowser thought in fear.
"I will demonstrate a glimpse of my true power…" Tabuu muttered with a smirk.
"WHAT?!" the Smashers all said in unison. Tabuu sprung out his colorful wings. The pressure of Subspace began to increase but only for a split second. Subspace grew darker.
"..." Tabuu prepared one of his deadliest moves, the Off Waves. "OFF WAVES!"
"This is far from over, Tabuu," Mario and Tabuu exchanged cold glares. Mario tightened his fist as he glared at the Subspace ruler.
Tabuu unleashed the divine shockwave of energy Off Waves, instantly knocking out all the Smashers in one hit. All of the Smashers were unconscious, miraculously not dead. Tabuu smiled.
Tabuu dragged pieces of the World of Smash engulfed into Subspace and blended them together into a worldwide labyrinth, the Great Maze.
The bodies of the Smashers remained near lifeless and untouched while they each laid on the cold world of Subspace.
The Ruinous Defeat
