Gamma was in wheel mode as he raced through the base. Samus and Red were not too far behind. Samus was, of course, still unsure what to do about the Pikachu problem. Knowing her new friend Gamma was being powered by him didn't bode well with her but gamma was an excellent asset to the team. Hell, she and red would be lost without him leading the way.

Brawnbots and Shadow hands littered the paths they followed. Charizard made short work of any in his way and Gamma fired at whatever he locked onto, but mostly ignored them. E-series robots were also littering the halls and he seemed to give them priority so he could free the animals within.

"The prison cells are at the end of this hallway" Gamma declared in his monotone voice. Red withdrew Charizard in favour of Squirtle for now and he and Samus quickly caught up to Gamma. He entered walk mode and fired a gunshot at the locking mechanism and the door slid open to reveal a large room. It had three separate pathways. Gamma scanned each path individually.

"Each path branches even further. There are many cells. But only three contain prisoners." Gamma stated.

"No problem! Me and squirtle'll take the left path" Red said somewhat cheerfully. Samus nodded.

"And I'll take the right. Gamma can take the center" She replied. Gamma simply gave a generic robotic response and began to walk down the hall. Samus gave red a nod and ran down the right hallway.

Samus' pathway:

Now that Samus was alone, she was able to think more about the Pikachu predicament. Was there another way she could power Gamma? Surely that would take an insane amount of electricity. What about another animal? No. She could do that to some poor defenceless creature… unless it was a metroid.

She took a look around slowly when she suddenly heard a lock on sound and dodged out of the way of an incoming shot with her morph ball. A battalion of E-series robots were charging at Samus, with a barrage of energy shots firing at her. She rolled around with great agility, weaving inbetween shots and through robotic legs. Once she reached the center of the horde, she dropped a power bomb and quickly escaped, Wiping out all the robots. The animals hopped out and ran as fast as they could. Samus stopped for a moment to scan the wrecks of the robots. Maybe she could find a solution. From the looks of it, though, it either needed a living thing inside or a HUGE amount of electricity.

She sighed and continued looking for a prisoner. After about ten minutes of looking she found a patrol of E-series robots. They must've been guarding something. She fired a missile past them to draw their attention. All but one left to investigate, so Samus fully charged her power beam, crept up on the robot and blasted it's head off! The shot would draw the other robots back so she quickly blasted the door open. Whichever brawler was in here would be an invaluable ally when fighting these things off. She dashed in and found a short trophy. A young one with a baseball cap, tee-shirt and a long tail

Nameplate: Diddy Kong

Samus quickly revived Diddy who leapt up and pulled her into a hug of gratitude

"AHAH OH OH OOK!" He shouted happily.

"Yeah, whatever, Kong. Let's go, the guard's I'll back any second" As if on cue, the guard E-series bots barrelled towards them with their gun arms out stretched. Diddy, Being the cocky chimp he was, Entered a kung-fu pose before leaping high up, activating his jets and unleashing a peanut barrage from his guns!

With Diddy taking to the air, Samus began with the ground fighting, blasting all in her way through with her power beam and missiles. After most were taken down, the remaining robots began to retreat. Diddy Kong chased after and Samus was about to follow when they heard a familiar laugh: "WA HA HA!". Diddy turned back and stood by Samus and the two ran of towards the clearly evil laugh.

Gamma:

Gamma charged through. He didn't pay much attention to anything. He didn't focus on enemies unless they were E-series, or an immediate threat to his own safety. He didn't have much luck. All he saw were empty cells after empty cells. Of course, E-102 didn't get tired, bored or even notice time pass. He kept going for about 20 minutes before he came across a guarded cell that he cleared with ease. And there was a trophy inside it! He hacked his way through the lock and entered. The trophy featured a regal looking woman with a long, beautiful dress. Gamma revived the trophy.

Nameplate: Princess Peach

"Phew! It feels great to not be stone anymore!" Peach said, straightening her hair and dusting off her dress. She looked toward Gamma, somewhat suspicious. "Did… Did you revive me?"

"Affirmative. I'm E-102. Codename, Gamma" He began to scan peach and seach for her on the internet. "Princess Peach(Japanese: ピーチ姫 Hepburn: Pīchi-hime) (Full name: Princess Peach Toadstool) is the Princess of the Mushroom Kingdom, which is constantly under attack by Bowser, and often…"

"Are you reciting my Wikipedia page?" Peach interrupted. Gamma simply nodded to which peach smirked a little. "C'mon. Let's get out of here!" She said and she happily skipped out of her cell. Gamma followed. Suddenly, She heard a laugh that sounded all to familiar to her: "WA HA HA!".

Peach frowned and took off towards the laugh, with Gamma in hot pursuit.

Pokemon Trainer:

Red and Squirtle were running down the Prison block, slowing only to avoid E-series bots. They would prefer this mission to pass without trouble if possible. Of course, they knew that they couldn't just avoid their foes forever, but if they could get one of the prisoners faster then fighting them off would be a lot easier. Red was getting tired of running and would like nothing better than to whip out his bike. But he could hear Professor Oak's words in his head "There is a time and place for everything, but not now." Ugh… Dammit, Oak…

Red continued running until Squirtle began to tug in his pants.

"Squirtle! Squirtle, Squirt!" He said while pointing down a branching path. He could see a cell with a very familiar trophy inside! A Short boy, About the same height as Diddy Kong. He had a weird sticking up hairstyle and was wearing a striped tee-shirt. Red's old friend!

Nameplate: Lucas

Squirtle revived Lucas and Red welcomed him back to life.

"Good to have ya back, buddy!" He said. Lucas smiled back but it quickly disappeared as more guard e-series robots appeared. Red switched Squirtle out for Ivysaur and Lucas charged up his psychic energy. The two of them dived from the cell into the fight. Lucas began shooting energy all around himself, sending robots off in every direction. Ivysaur also, began to fight. He wrapped a vine whip around an E-series ankle and whiped it around into the others. Suddenly, From the opposite direction, they heard a laugh that still haunted lucas. "WA HA HA"

Lucas and red turned away from the sea of broken robots to see a short fat man with a jagged moustache and an oversized pink nose

Nameplate: Wario

"Well, well, well. It's the slave driver and the Coward. Nice to see you both again. Wahaha!" He said. From two branching halls, Diddy Kong, Samus, Gamma and Princess Peach came running in. Wario quickly realized how bad the odds were and whipped out his Dark cannon. A gun that would turn any brawler into trophies! He quickly aimed it at Peach and fired it sending the black energy arrow towards her at alarming speed. In a split second, using his robotic precision timing, Gamma charged in and push peach out of the way, allowing himself to be hit by the large black bolt.

"Gamma!" Shouted Red as e-102 was launched backwards with tremendous force. Unfortunately, gamma was not a living thing, nor was he from this universe. Both of those factors combined meant that he wasn't technically a brawler so when he is wrecked, he doesn't become a trophy.

Gamma's lifeless, but otherwise fine form fell forward on his face and the compartment in his back shot open.

Wario began laughing maniacally as usual. And while most of the heroes where too shocked to do anything, Samus couldn't waste her time. She fired her grapple beam inside of Gamma and pulled out the trophy of one of the smallest brawlers.

Nameplate: Pikachu

Samus revived Pikachu and the mouse Pokemon hopped down beside her. Wario called in a load more E-series robots and they gathered behind him.

"HA! Bring it on, Heroes!" Taunted Wario. Samus looked down to Pikachu and nodded. Pikachu felt his body surge with energy. He ran off down the opposite hallway and then turned back around. He ran back towards Wario at top speed. His body flooded totally with electricity so mush that he was literally a flashing ball of lightning with the outline of a mouse inside it. It was the Volt Tackle!

"Pika, pika, pika, pika, pika, pika, pika, pika, Pika, Pika, Pika, Pika, PIKA, PIKA, PIKA, PIKAAAA!" Pikachu chanted as he ran. Wario immediately recognised the danger and made a hasty retreat, leaving the robots as a blockade. This didn't stop pikachu, He used gamma's broken body and a stand and leapt upwards and soared into the crowd of robots, destroying them all and freeing the animals.

The discharge from the attack could be felt all around the room. Samus' suit was glitching up a little, and Red had to return the water type Squirtle. But most of the electicity was drawn away into gamma's body. As the electricity emptied the room, Gamma's eyes flickered a little and slowly turned on. He still couldn't move though. This game Samus an idea that she was angry she didn't think up sooner.

"Pikachu!" Said samus. "Hit that red robot's back with your thunder attack". Pikachu wasn't sure why Samus wanted him to do it, but he did as instructed, launching a powerful lighting bolt into E-102's back. Gamma suddenly felt full of energy and leapt to his feet.

"E-102, Codename: Gamma, Reporting for duty. Mission objective: Capture and destroy Dr Eggman" Gamma locked and loaded his gun as he said this.

"Nu-uh. No way" Argued Samus. "This was a search and rescue mission, Not an assassination. We aren't taking any risks. We head back to my ship and comeback when we have a real plan!"

"Umm… we can't" Spoke up Lucas. Everyone turned to the somewhat shy boy. "They have my friend. I saw them take her away before they made me into a trophy. We have to save her" Samus wasn't pleased that her mission had to continue, but it had to be done. She Signaled for the group to follow them and the 7 fighters ran off down the hallway that Wario had left through.

Author's notes time

So yeah, I've been gone a while. I just couldn't get motivated to write this chapter, which is stupid because I'm REALLY motivated to right so many future chapters. Especially one coming up involving Tails and another Which introduces the MLP characters I'll be using. Mlp inclusion was added rather late in the production of the story as I'd never actually seen the show when I first started this. But one I had seen it, I knew I wanted to include it. Anyway, Feel free to drop a review. I'll always respond. (even if not right away)

See ya!
