SUPER SMASH BROS. Civil War
Chapter 42: Vs. Mewtwo
To The Emissary Core
The Great Maze, Subspace
The Ancient Minister monitored the Emissary Core as the Smashers verged in closer to his location. The background turned into a tan cosmic hue with white stars diffusing across the vast dark dimension. The Smashers were all halted by a giant dark ball of psychic energy directed at them. They dodged the powerful attack just in time.
From the center of where they were, the Smashers could see a figure looking up. He had an unnatural tail that moved motionless. He then seemed to be levitating and had a blue shade of energy covering him. He spoke but his lips did not move, meaning he was using telepathy.
"I promise you that there will be no turning back, or going further," he told them in a strong voice. The sword fighting duke Roy crept a smile.
"...So we meet again…" said Roy with a smirk as if he was expecting him. "...Mewtwo."
Mewtwo: the strongest psychic Pokémon of all time and the genetic clone of its legendary counterpart Mew. He appeared calm as he channeled in his psychic powers.
"Mewtwo, what are your true intentions here?" asked Bowser.
"A former ally of mine, I see. And you decide to join these weaklings? How unfortunate," Mewtwo talked down on the Koopa King.
"I made a choice and I took it. Now tell me! Why are you here?" Bowser refuted.
"I serve as Commander of the Subspace Emissary, alongside Ganondorf and the Ancient Minister," Mewtwo introduced his role.
"Do you know about Tabuu?" asked Bowser.
"You mean my master? He has the almighty powers that rival the gods. None may stand to face him, else they have a death wish," explained Mewtwo. "Enough with talking for now. Who wishes to challenge me?" said Mewtwo as he ascended upwards and descended back down. Roy volunteered.
"Bring it on. I'm up and this will be the finishing blow!" boasted Roy as he stepped forward and looked at Mewtwo straight into his cold eyes. Mewtwo gave not one single smirk or sign of cockiness. Roy rushed and unleashed his blade and Mewtwo suddenly hit the young duke in the face in a flash. The hit knocked Roy back.
"Ah, how did you—" grunted Roy when the last thing he saw was Mewtwo leaping in midair and hitting the swordsman in the face again but with his tail. Mewtwo suddenly appeared behind Roy.
"Get lost, scum," Mewtwo told him.
Roy clenched his sword and tried to slice the psychic Pokémon who was in the back of him. Mewtwo broke the blade in mere milliseconds and knuckle punched Roy in the face. Roy instantly went down.
"You lost again," Mewtwo told him. Mewtwo kicked Roy towards the Smashers.
"Hmph. Impressive. Then again, he was another weak mortal. This shouldn't be a problem for me, of course," Dark Pit had no remorse for Roy's simple loss. The dark angel declared himself the next opponent.
"You seem confident of yourself. It means either you're strong or you're daring enough to become another victim," Mewtwo's last words angered Dark Pit.
"You're done for, beast," the angel replied.
"Good luck, Dark Pit," Lucina cheered for him.
"Good luck?! Tch, as if I need your encouragement," he did not care. "I did not for your cheering," Dark Pit ascended fast with rage and shot a deadly arrow from his bow.
Mewtwo didn't move at all. In fact, he closed his eyes and waited for the arrow to reach him. Just when the dark arrow was about to hit, Mewtwo stopped the attack in suspended motion. He converted the arrow and shot it right back, along with a dark energy ball. Dark Pit dodged the two incoming attacks.
"What the?!... Where is he?!" Dark Pit couldn't see Mewtwo anywhere. The Smashers were looking around as well. Mewtwo suddenly appeared behind Dark Pit in the air.
"Right here," Mewtwo spin kicked the dark angel to the floor. Dark Pit got back up. Mewtwo descended yards away.
"You really enjoy striking from behind. Fight me like a true warrior!" Dark Pit angrily criticized Mewtwo.
"Very well," Mewtwo replied. He channeled in some energy and sent it into his head. He proceeded to take flight towards Dark Pit and charge at him.
Dark Pit shot an array of dark arrows, Dark Arrow Storm, at the Psychic Pokémon. Mewtwo, with ease, swiftly evaded all arrows within milliseconds. Mewtwo used Skull Bash to smash Dark Pit's armor and insides, delivering a devastating impact. Mewtwo punched and kicked and struck at Dark Pit in a series of attacks; Dark Pit barely had any time for wiggle room to escape the extremely rapid hits. Dark Pit went down as well.

Boss Battle Mewtwo Phase One
The Great Maze, Subspace
Lucario's jaw opened in awe as he witnessed the speed of Mewtwo. Without any effort, Mewtwo single-handedly defeated two Smashers with arguable amounts of strength. "It's unlike anything I have ever seen," he thought. Mewtwo caught sight of Lucario looking at him and then finally opened his mouth to speak as he pointed at the Aura Pokémon.
"You there. Who are you?" Mewtwo questioned. Lucario, already aware of this, returned to his usual state of emotions and responded.
"...I am Lucario. Am I your next opponent?" replied Lucario as he went closer.
"It seems that way. You are unlike all the others. You may actually be someone who can test a mere fraction of my true power," Mewtwo remarked.
"So you say," Lucario took a fighting stance, in which Mewtwo did the same and they proceeded to fight.
Already into the fight, Lucario went serious. Mewtwo kept on dodging Lucario's attacks. The same went for Lucario dodging Mewtwo's. Both Pokémon met fist by fist and arm by arm. With their incredible speed, it was difficult to predict their movements.
"Wow! They're so evenly matched that we'll never know who's going to win," said Peach.
"Lucario's way different from the rest of us. I can tell he's just started," Bowser informed.
"I didn't think he had it in him. Then again, it's Lucario. Even Dark Pit failed so easily," commented Palutena.
"Shut up!" Dark Pit began to recover after waking up. He received major injuries in his stomach, chest, and arms. Lucina tended to him.
"It'll be fine. You'll get stronger next time, that you will," Lucina smiled.
The dark angel unexpectedly copped a fake smile in return. "Shut it…"
"Knowing Lucario, he's hiding his own true power," Palutena wore her glasses and smirked as she bragged on.
"...Where did those glasses come from?" Zelda pondered.
"Nevermind that. Right now, we have to cheer Lucario on. You can do it, Lucario!" shouted Palutena with praise.
Mewtwo and Lucario stopped all sense of action and both Pokémon were not even tired yet, surprising every Smasher. "You are a worthy opponent. I commend you on this," Mewtwo acknowledged.
"Thank you", replied Lucario.
"...Now, the real fight begins!" Mewtwo increased his power.
"I suppose we've both been holding back," Lucario also powered up into an aura-filled state. Lucario and Mewtwo exchanged fists and strikes and blows between each other, still equally matched and still not backing down. They lowered their speed and focused more on skill.
"I never thought that these creatures would possess this much power. It's something beyond mutation where I'm from," Snake watched the fight continue with awe. Samus nudged Snake's arm.
"I thought you would get used to this," Samus smiled.
"Apparently not. And I almost got killed by a living god. I never actually believed those things existed," Snake laughed a bit. Samus laughed in agreement.
"I'm standing right here," the green haired goddess glared.
Mewtwo finally placed a blow on Lucario's arm and Lucario hit Mewtwo in the abdomen. Both of them landed successful blows up to this point. After that, they continued to hit each other repeatedly. Lucario and Mewtwo ended up kicking each other in the face at the same time. Mewtwo launched Lucario into the air. Little did he know that Lucario had the perfect moment to counter using his Aura Storm.
"Watch the power of aura!" Lucario yelled out loud before he released a powerful blue energy beam from his hands and blasted it at the psychic Pokémon. Mewtwo met the attack and tried to deflect it but it was too much to handle, which resulted in him being engulfed by the energy.
Mewtwo recovered from the blast with marks all over him and sheds of sweat dripping down his forehead. He wiped it off and immediately changed his mood to anger once he looked at his red hand. Lucario landed on his feet and lost some stamina as he was breathing quite heavily.
"Damn you," Mewtwo whispered.
"[breathing heavily] He's strong," Lucario panted.
"I commend you for spilling drops of blood, but it all ends now," Mewtwo boosted his power even more.
He immediately charged at Lucario, and in seconds, Mewtwo appeared right before him. Mewtwo attacked with a barrage of kicks and punches. Mewtwo performed an uppercut, sending Lucario upwards. Mewtwo shot a dark energy ball while Lucario was in the air. He naturally evaded.
Mewtwo fired another dark ball of energy, but this time bigger. Lucario vanished to avoid the attack, and sweep kicked Mewtwo from behind. Mewtwo recovered and struck Lucario with his motionless tail. Mewtwo tried to hit Mewtwo but he used Illusion to avoid the attack. Mewtwo also tried to strike, but Lucario also used Illusion. Each time, both Smashers would take swings at one another, causing them to do an Illusion to evade the attack. They ceased the fight after twenty attempts.
"[panting] You've kept up for this long. Not bad. Shame your stamina is dropping," Mewtwo noted, flashing a small grin.
"[panting heavily] Err!" Lucario felt considerably weaker. Mewtwo and Lucario stared at each other for several seconds.
"This fight has been dragging on for almost half an hour. To think neither one of them are backing down," spoke Lucina.
"But Lucario looks more worn out," said a worried Peach.
"He'll see this through the end!" Palutena cheered him on.
"He has my praise as well for surviving this long," Dark Pit complimented Lucario, shutting his eyes. "I could beat them both if I wanted to," he was still jealous.
"Of course I do! Lucario will win!" replied Palutena with a reassuring tone.
"Hmph," Mewtwo disappeared so fast and reappeared in front of Lucario.
Mewtwo straight punched Lucario in the right side of his face. Lucario responded with consecutive backflips to get away. Lucario grunted not because of the bruise, but because of how Mewtwo was moving faster now.
"You should have realized by now that my speed increases when I power up," explained Mewtwo.
"I guess I'll have to try harder," Lucario placed his hands behind his back and charged up an aura blast.
Instead of firing it, Lucario absorbed the aura blast back into his paws. He used Illusion and punched Mewtwo in the stomach with full force as he reappeared. Mewtwo tried to fight back as Lucario was desperately trying to dodge and land hits. Luckily, Lucario got a few good hits before Mewtwo had the upper hand.
"Grr… bastard!" Mewtwo mumbled under his breath after spitting blood. Mewtwo responded immediately having his left hand aimed at Lucario's head.
"...Die!" Mewtwo, even though he whispered it, everyone heard him. Mewtwo used Super Psychic Ball on Lucario. The explosion occurred with heavy impact.
Lucario was heavily injured and could not fight as he was too weak. Bowser and Snake jumped in to fight Mewtwo. Bowser clawed Mewtwo and sent him flying. Snake helped Lucario to the others, who then were able to heal him. Mewtwo recovered with fury in his mind. He fired a screaming barrage of Super Psychic Spheres at the Smashers. Rosalina and Palutena created a barrier which saved everyone. Lucas stepped in after the explosion.
"PK Flash!" Lucas used the PK Flash on Mewtwo, having little effect.
"PK… Flash!" Ness tried PK Flash Omega on Mewtwo, having a greater effect. Mewtwo was growing weaker.
ooo
Emissary Bridge
The Great Maze, Subspace
Mewtwo ascended to the air and was immediately surrounded by a golden invincible barrier, probably the work of Tabuu. While in the golden barrier, Mewtwo was beginning to heal up. Lucas and Ness both tried PK Thunder Omega to destroy the shield, but it was easily cancelled out. Even Mewtwo was surprised.
"Thank you… Master Tabuu," Mewtwo nodded.
Subspace Primids came to Mewtwo's aid. The psychic Pokémon stayed in midair and moved further away from the Smashers each time they got closer. The Smashers tried to dispose of as many as possible to reach Mewtwo, but too many of them continue to spawn. Bowser took a step back and rammed through the traffic of enemies, plowing them all off the bridge. The reinforcements swooped from the bridge and began shooting at the Smashers. Mario used his Fiery Ultimate on the enemy. Samus shot her Zero Laser into the ultimate, converting it into a Burning Zero Laser Attack. The fused move destroyed all of the reinforcements at one time. Even more popped up, prompting Palutena and Rosalina to use a joint special move of goddess light and cosmos to kill off the last of the reinforcements.
Mewtwo was eventually healed and the golden barrier disappeared.
"Hmhmhmhmhm!" Mewtwo started to laugh menacingly, something unlike his calmer personality. He stopped laughing and started boiling up in anger.
ooo
Boss Battle Mewtwo Phase Two
The Great Maze, Subspace
Mewtwo halted his body at the end of the long bridge, still in midair. He acted more frustrated and prepared to finish the battle as he descended to the floor.
"Enough of this! This will not go on any further. I'll show you the full extent of my power," Mewtwo took a Super Back Jump far away from the Smashers.
Using his telekinesis, Mewtwo sent in armor parts and a helmet and attached them onto his body, thus becoming Armored Mewtwo. His defense and attack increased as a result. Even with the extra weight, Mewtwo still had some of his speed intact. His mental state made him appear calmer.
"Now… come and face me with everything you've got!" his voice boomed and sounded darker. Mewtwo's armored body proceeded to walk slowly to the Smashers. Very carefully and precisely, he fired two deadly psychic power balls from his left hand and shot them both in an energy wave attack to trigger the explosion in a larger radius. Everyone evaded the attack as soon as it almost reached them.
Lucario stepped in the first chance he got and resumed round two. He quickly charged up an Aura Sphere and launched with full force, but when it was about to come into contact with the armored Pokémon, Mewtwo deflected the ball without trying. The Aura Pokémon dashed forward and faced off Mewtwo head on. Lucario knew he had an advantage because he was faster than him, but Mewtwo on the other hand, was completely different after he armed himself up. The psychic Pokémon dodged all the attacks from Lucario even though his armor was strong enough to withstand regular hits. This allowed time for Mewtwo to charge up another psychic energy ball and when Lucario was open, Mewtwo fired the ball directly into Lucario's chest.
The Aura Pokémon was still not down just yet. He put on some heat of his own and let blue aura energy stream into his palms. Lucario was able to increase his speed and size up his power. Lucario's aura hits were beginning to work until that moment when Mewtwo didn't feel any pain at all. That's when he stored his psychic energy in one hand to create an energy ball and leaped up.
"Die!" said Mewtwo before firing his energy ball, nearly killing Lucario once it hit him.
Mewtwo was able to attack with full force by knee kicking Lucario in the stomach, grabbing his head, and slamming it to the floor. Lucario was down as he tried to get up. Mewtwo kicked him back up and knocked Lucario into an even weaker state.
"Pathetic. I expected more from you. You're nothing but a disgrace," told Mewtwo as he was disappointed. Lucario gave a smiling smirk.
"Who said the fight was over? What… what did you think… that I would be killed from an attack like that? You thought I would roll over and die?!" said Lucario as he got up with Mewtwo looking on with slight fear. Mewtwo restrained his tinge of fear.
"Well, what do you know? He can fight," Mewtwo thought to himself.
"Errr, erRRAAAHHHHHH!" Lucario screamed in pain as his aura energy increased to new heights. His limits were being reached and close to exceeding.
"Lucario's power! It's going off the scale," Palutena sensed the hidden potential in Lucario all along. "Ha! I told ya so!" she giggled at everyone.
"What the hell?! This is… this is i-impossible!" Dark Pit felt Lucario's energy rising too.
"...At last," Greninja smiled as he witnessed his friend evolving. "You finally did it. Something I could hope to achieve," he thought.
"EEERRRRAAAAHHHHHH!" Lucario was evolving as his body began changing.
Lucario's aura dramatically changed as he was approximately 1.8 times stronger than previously. He gained red markings and longer fur as well as spikes. His light blue aura flashed around him like wildfire. The mega evolved Lucario; Mega Lucario.
"It's over, Mewtwo… you're finished!" Lucario's serious and direct tone scared Mewtwo.
"Me finished?! Hahahahaha!" Armored Mewtwo laughed hard under his helmet.
"Laugh while you can because this will be the end for you," Mega Lucario threatened. Mewtwo stopped laughing.
"Hahahaha… hmph. You have some nerve facing me like this!" Mewtwo expressed his cocky attitude.
"Let's find out who's stronger! This time, I'll win!" Lucario expressed his pride.
Armored Mewtwo and Mega Lucario clashed head to head. Each punch and strike at one another was felt by everyone. The impact of every attack shook the facility. Armored Mewtwo took a step when getting a chance and shot with a larger version of the Super Psychic Ball. Mega Lucario responded with an Aura Sphere. The two power balls collided, creating a fierce, light blue and dark purple explosion covering the whole area. The Smashers assumed both of them died.
"Ah, is L-lucario?!..." Bowser almost believed Lucario to be dead. When the dust began to clear up, the Smashers only Armored Mewtwo, barely scratched up.
"Ha! Pathetic. Dead in one attack," Mewtwo laughed out loud. However, when the dust cleared, everyone saw that Lucario was okay, unphased even.
"W-what?! How is this possible?" Mewtwo was the most surprised at how Mega Lucario survived.
"It's on!" Lucario told the armored psychic, who easily knew he wouldn't stand a chance.
Mega Lucario vanished and reappeared behind Mewtwo and knee kicked him in the neck and struck at him repeatedly in the same position. Lucario fired a series of Aura Spheres at once, Aura Barrage. Then, Lucario unleashed a frenzy of aura charged kicks and strikes, breaking through Mewtwo's armor.
"That's enough!" Mewtwo roared in a dark booming voice. He performed his signature move, Psystrike, which created a purple explosive forcefield. The impact was so severe that it sent Mega Lucario to the skies. The Psystrike produced from Armored Mewtwo caused the helmet to rip into pieces.
"Iwillfinishthisrightnow!" the withered Armored Mewtwo shot a powerful Psychic Ball, Ultimate Psychic Bomb, having the appearance of an actual black sun.
Mega Lucario wasn't done yet. He stayed up in the air and prepared to launch his ultimate, Aura Storm, but with his mega evolved state, it is dubbed Mega Aura Storm. He fired with full force.
"Watch the power of Aura! RAAAAHHHHH!" Lucario fired the Mega Aura Storm, which looked like a large light blue energy waveguide.
The Mega Aura Storm collided with the Ultimate Psychic Bomb, creating a beam struggle. Both Pokémon placed their own reserve amounts of strengths to push the other ultimate attack away. The Smashers were speechless at what they were seeing.
"Er, er, er, er, errrrr," Mewtwo put all efforts into stopping the Aura Storm.
"Hrrr. RAHHHHHHH!" Mega Lucario's Aura Storm engulfed the Ultimate Psychic Bomb and swallowed in Armored Mewtwo.
"No! Not this time! YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE LAST OF MEEEeeeeee!" Mewtwo's armor peeled off as he screamed while falling below the crumbling bridge.
Mega Lucario descended from the air and returned to his normal state. He gave his allies a delighted smile. With the General of the Subspace Emissary defeated, the Smashers observed the Emissary Core as the confrontation with the Ancient Minister was closing in.
