"No no no, the girls might be onto something here." Umber said.
"What do you mean?" Strange asked.
"They're mentioning they want to slap someone for flirting with me. Meanwhile, I just feel… disturbed. Like, this might sound completely out there, but I feel like a family member just flirted with me… and I just feel violated!"
"Part of me wants to tell ya…" Deadpool said as he was looking through his phone. "Buuuuut I don't think destroying your mind is in your best interest."
"...Now you got me curious." Ridley said.
"Ah, you know what they say… curiosity killed the Ridley!"
Ridley sweatdropped. "I don't think they say that."
Deadpool looked at the screen. "You see people who tend to read these fanfics at three in the morning? That's called subtle foreshadowing. Also why are you up at three in the morning? GO TO BED! …Unless you're in a different country, then that's understandable!"
Esdeath cleared her throat. "Anyway… Chiaki, are you feeling up for it again?"
"Yeah. I'm feeling like my old self again." Chiaki smiled.
"Great. Now let's get going." Esdeath said as they walked out, hopping in the X-Wing, Dyna Blade and Lor Starcutter and flew off.

"Alright… what kind of quotes are we going to be expecting this time?" Nyx asked.
"One way to find out." Iris said as they flew off.
"Everyone stay where you, chill the eff out! I'm going to ask you this one time. Where is Gamora?"
"Yeah, I'll do you one better. WHO'S Gamora?"
"I'll do YOU one better. WHY is Gamora!"
Strange shook his head. "I see this realm is going into my memories. Still a very odd thing to say."
"Hahaha! You think this isn't pop culture!" Deadpool said.
"Tell me where the girl is or I swear to you, I'm going to french fry this little freak."
"Let's do it! You shoot my guy and I'll blast him. Let's go!"
"Do it, Quill! I can take it…"
"No, he can't take it!"
"She's right. You can't."
"Oh yeah, you don't want to tell me where she is? That's fine! I'll kill all three of you and beat it out of Thanos myself, starting with you!"
"Wait, what, Thano-? Okay, let me ask you this one time. What master do you serve?"
"What master do I serve, what, am I supposed to say Jesus?"
"...You're from Earth."
"I'm not from Earth, I'm from Missouri!"
"Yeah, that's on Earth, dipshit. What are you hasslin' us for?"
"I doubt this is "pop culture"." Strange said.
"Wanna bet?"
"...Let's not destroy the poor guy's mind. He's had a rough day." Dante said cheekily.
"Thank you… hey!"
"I believe I'd like to try falling in love."
"...Huh?" Esdeath immediately perked up.
"Uh, yes, that sounds reasonable! So what is your opinion of the Minister here?"
"Wait, what?!"
"The Minister doesn't take very good care of himself. He would not live much longer."
"Preposterous! I'm in perfect health!"
"Hey, that lady kinda sounds like Esdeath…" Nyx said.
"That's because it is me." Esdeath responded. "And yet… I don't recall ever saying that. I also recognize Honest, yet I don't know who that third voice belongs to."
"Maybe you dreamt it?" Laura asked.
"I don't think that's how it works." Mercury said. "We're probably listening in on possible alternate universes."
"I'm still betting it's memories." Strange said.
"Hmm… could it be, though?" Jack wondered.
"Question!"
"What's your question, Soldier?"
"I teleported bread!"
"What?"
"You told me to."
"How… much…?"
"I have done nothing but teleport bread for three days!"
"WHERE! WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN SENDING IT?!"
"Ack! Definitely memories! Get out of my head you disembodied voice!" Soldier said.
"Goodness, Strange might be on to something here." Engi said. "It ain't just pop culture, but memories too!"
"...Hmm, interesting… one other zhing. Why is frauline Chiaki giggling?" Medic asked.
"Nothing! Nothing, don't worry about it." Chiaki giggled.
"That's right. That scene always gets you into a giggle fit." Hajime teased.
"You think you honor your brother, Genji, with incense offerings? Honor resides in one's actions."
"You dare lecture me about order?! You are not worthy to say his name!"
"Oh, I always like going back to this one…" Sonia said.
"Same here!" Futaba agreed.
"Ryū ga waga teki wo kurau!"
"Ryūjin no ken wo kurae!"
"There's our stop." Mewtwo said as they landed in the Forgo Horns.

"Heat…" Heatran said as he began walking, and then noticed almost everyone crowding around him for warmth. "Heatra?" He sweatdropped.
"Hey, some of us are cold blooded. Give us a break!" Raphael said.
"Yeah, what he said. Sorry big guy." Leonardo apologized.
"I was just pushed here!" Ridley grumbled.
"I got my own heater, thank you very much." Nick said.
"You do? Where do you even have a-" It dawned on Magnolia. "Bro…"
"Yes?"
"You suck."
Nick grinned. "You're too easy sometimes."
"I've been through colder." Kyoko said as she, Bowser, Strange, Esdeath, the Thunder Legion (minus Zapple), Shadow, Chiaki, BB-8, Kirby, Mewtwo and Jack were by themselves.
"Ahhh, niiiiice and toasty!" Ryuji grinned.
"You said it!" Ann smiled.
"A member of the Thunder Legion can't handle the cold?" Ridley mocked.
"Oi! I lived on an island, thank you very much!"
"Can't argue with that." Deadpool said, casually roasting marshmallows on top of Heatran.
The group then walked through the snow, taking out Digguhs while traversing around gates, or Esdeath and Heatran destroying said gates as they walked up the steps and continued on, where Kirby spotted a vending machine/
"Poyo!" Kirby sucked it up and waddled around until he found a path with Gordos. He cautiously waddled forward and spat out only three sodas before running on empty. "Mmph?" Kirby raised an eyebrow before spitting it out, then walked over to twelve pieces of Leongar's Soul, picking them up and walking back to Chiaki as they were about to enter a rift portal.
"Hmm? Oh! Thanks bud." Chiaki smiled, opening up a dimension pocket as Kirby stored them in as they walked into the portal together.
"This spot…" Magnolia grimaced. "I remember it all too well…"
Sonia gently put her hand on Magnolia's shoulder. "You'll be okay. You have us." She smiled.
"Yeah…" Magnolia nodded as Xena gently took her hand and gave it a gentle squeeze as Magnolia smiled, returning the favor as they walked through as Bowser punched through the barriers to have them slide against the ice and crushing any Mookies in the way.
"Always punchin' your way through things." Dedede shook his head.
"Like you can do better?" Bowser smirked.
"Hmph! Who's the better king around here, turtle boy?"
"You tryin' to start something!"
"Heheheh, jumpin' to conclusions!"
"Oh for heaven's sake-"
"No no no, let's see how this plays out." Ridley interrupted Kyoko, as the two proceeded to walk ahead and pummeled anything in their way, causing everyone to sweatdrop while Deadpool pulled out a video recorder.
"Battle of the egos…" Strange said.
"Yeah, how'd that battle of wits go with Tony again?" Deadpool asked, as Strange gave him a dirty look and walked off. "That's what I thought!"
Kyoko shook her head, chuckling. "Oh, Bowser… what am I going to do with you?"
The two kings proceeded to clobber a Balloon-meister after they tore through everything as eight pieces of soul floated above them. The two of them glared at each other and tried to reach for it, but Chiaki telekinetically brought it over to her and stored it away.
"Guys, you can duel later." Chiaki said. "What the stakes are, I'm not sure what-"
"The custody of Umber!" Dedede said.
"WHAT!" Bowser yelled. "No, I conscripted him first!"
"You have way too many folks on your side. Besides, I laid my eyes on him first before you swooped in and kidnapped him! So I get dibs on the boy!"
"Oooh, that is it! We duel in front of your castle!"
"Can't wait to clobber ya! I look forward for a second round of clobberin' you. That fight we had in Subspace was just an appetizer!"
Bowser snarled. "I'm gonna make sure you won't use that hammer ever again!"
"...What the hell is going on?" Umber sweatdropped.
Chiaki chuckled nervously. "I think this is my fault…"
"Well, you got the two biggest egotistic kings fighting for you. You should be honored." Kyoko said, trying to hold back a giggle.
"I'll get the popcorn." Ridley smirked sadistically.
"Y'all sound like an old married couple! Yeah, that's right. I said it!" Deadpool said.
"...Wade, no." Sonia said.
"Wade YES!" Deadpool grinned… which resulted in Bowser engulfing him in fire and then Dedede hammering him into the ground. "OOOOF! …Worth it!"
"Hmmm…" Kyoko rubbed her chin in thought. "How about this? Deadpool has a healing factor, doesn't he? Why not see who can put the hurting on him better?"
Bowser and Dedede both looked at each other, sparks flying out of their eyes with a smirk. "You're on!"
"Wait, don't I get a say in this?!" Umber sweatdropped.
"Let's see here…" Deadpool pulled out a list. "I'm gonna need a helmet, shoulder pads, and pillow armor… lots of pillow armor."
"Why not just steel armor? Like a normal person?" Strange asked.
"Ha! You're funny! You think I'm normal!" Deadpool mocked, casually adding "spikes" to pillow armor.
"That'll do the trick." Dante said as Vergil shook his head.
"...Babes? Aren't you gonna say something?" Umber asked.
"Good luck out there." Yagami said.
"Yeah, we'll visit you in Dreamland and the Koopa Kingdom!" Xena teased.
"OH COME ON!" Umber yelled as JIN giggled at this.
"At some point, he's going to put his foot down." Makoto said.
"Aww, where's the fun in that?" Ryuji asked as they walked off to the next area, where they would get pushed around by the wind but Strange set up some magic to conjure up barriers to prevent them from getting pushed away back and forth.
"Aw man, I had a kite and everything…" Deadpool pouted, dragging a kite behind him as it glided across the ground as they walked through, Strange blocking Gigatzos from shooting at them as they walked through the rooftops until they hopped over the lake and went to the right, where they would see ten pieces of soul as Chiaki stored it away and moved on to the next area.
"Oh, we're at the bridge." Carmen said.
"The bridge, you say? If you'll excuse me for a moment!" Gilgamesh climbed on top of the railing. "Enkidu! Let us go!"
The Awoofy nodded and climbed up with them as they ran across the railings. "...I should probably see what that bonehead's up to." She said, shadow stepping on top of the railing and ran after him.
"I wonder…" Reimu flew after them and was joined by the other Gensokyo girls.
The others walked or hopped across the broken bridge where Esdeath provided extra footing for Heatran just in case while they went on until they reached the end of the bridge… where they would see a Phantom Gilgamesh slamming into the ground as Gilgamesh and Carmen were on top of him, the phantom disappearing instantly.
"Never fear, we took care of the beast for ya!" Gilgamesh said.
Reimu flew down. "Yeah, we were going to help but they took care of him." She chuckled.
"That said, we did get these out of him." Kasen said, pulling out seven pieces of Leongar's soul, sending them over to Chiaki where she stored them away.
"That takes care of that." Chiaki said as they walked through a rift portal, finding themselves on boats as they slowly drifted along while steering the boats to avoid the Gordos, then the current picked up speed.
"Ah good, I was wondering when the lazy river would end." Marx said.
"I was enjoying the ride too…" Daroach mumbled as they reached the end where nine pieces of soul awaited them. They got off as Chiaki stored them away and then they went through a rift portal.
End BGM
They walked through and found themselves in an arena where they saw Phantom Dedede approach them.
"Heheheh! I've been waiting for-"
"No." A voice called out as a Phantom version of Esdeath landed in front of them, making Esdeath lightly gasp. "I'll handle things here, you run along. I'll toy with them for a little bit."
Phantom Dedede chuckled. "Very well." He said, disappearing in a portal as Phantom Esdeath conjured up a rapier.
"Now then… which one of you shall I draw blood first? Perhaps I should start with the young ones-" She noticed Shadow instinctively put his arm out in front of Logue. "They're the first ones to die and won't take long at all~"
Esdeath clenched her fists, immediately making an ice wall to block off everyone but herself. "No… you'll be killing no one today."
"Esdeath…" Laura whispered as Esdeath turned her head, giving her cousin a wink as Laura smiled and nodded with a smirk. "Knock her down!"
Esdeath pulled out her own sword and approached her phantom self. "So, this is what it's like to fight your inner demons… never thought it'd take the shape of myself."
Phantom Esdeath smirked. "You're weak. If you had been stronger, you would have blocked off the brainwashing. Goes to show that your mind had weakened when you were angry over something so trivial. Imagine getting upset over child slaves."
Esdeath growled. "Trying to get into my head, are you? It's not working."
"Such a shame. You could use them to your potential. Imagine the chaos you could bring! You could easily overthrow your father with these child soldiers!"
"Those are just empty words… they mean nothing to me."
"Oh, but orphans mean a lot to you, as you are one yourself. You have so much untapped potential. Would you like to see what your potential could be like? You could be so much more than just an ice queen."
Esdeath got in her stance. "Humor me."
"Gladly."
BGM: Erza vs Erza (Fairy Tail)
Prepare for the Ice Age! - Phantom Esdeath
The two of them lunged, clashing with their weapons as Phantom Esdeath countered her and conjured up portals as icebergs shot out at Esdeath.
Esdeath responded by making an ice wall to block them as Phantom Esdeath tore through the wall and struck Esdeath, but she shattered upon contact as the real Esdeath came in and ice punched her in the face to send her back a few feet as she conjured up an ice sword and swung her sword as Phantom Esdeath blocked and then countered, shattering the ice sword easily and swung her rapier into Esdeath.
Esdeath weaved her body and then punched the ground as icicles rose up from the ground, only for Phantom Esdeath to backflip and then threw ice boomerangs at her. Esdeath front flipped over and heel kicked Phantom Esdeath on the head. The latter snapped her fingers in retaliation as an ice fist came out of a portal and struck Esdeath, knocking her away as Phantom Esdeath teleported toward Esdeath and stomped her foot on the ground as another ice fist rose up and knocked Esdeath in the air.
Ice wings surrounded Phantom Esdeath and then flew up in the air, flipping over and axe kicking Esdeath into the ground, then she kicked Esdeath away. "Come on now… is that the best you can do?" She taunted as Esdeath got up, wiping her mouth. "You're not even trying! You're the most feared general in Atlas and you're barely using all of your power!"
"I like to give my foes a chance."
"Ha! Oh really… that's going to be your downfall." Phantom Esdeath smirked.
Esdeath smirked. "So, this is what it feels like when my enemies fight me. Truly, it feels invigorating!" She rolled her shoulders, closing her eyes as an icy aura surrounded her. Her eyes started to glow as well.
"What's this…?"
"Now you will realize what happens when I truly cut loose… and why I'm considered to be the most feared general of Atlas."
She clapped her hands, unleashing a powerful snowstorm that covered the entire arena as Esdeath disappeared in the blizzard. Phantom Esdeath shifted her eyes to see where she could be hiding.
Esdeath snapped her fingers as the snowflakes suddenly turned into daggers, locking onto Phantom Esdeath and launched into her, turning her into a pincushion. "Rrrgh!" Phantom Esdeath growled as several snowmen rose up from the ground and surrounded her, where the snowmen exploded, sending sharp tiny icicles to her and cut into Phantom Esdeath's clothing and skin.
"Rrrrgh… show yourself!" She demanded as Esdeath rose up from the snow, her arms turning into ice as blades came out as she lunged ahead as Phantom Esdeath turned around and swiftly blocked with her rapier, only for Esdeath to cut through the rapier and punched Phantom Esdeath in the face, resulting in miniature ice explosions.
"Where did all this come from!"
"Oh, I suppose Fecto didn't look into my powers hard enough when he brainwashed me~" Esdeath smirked as water circled around her, then launched said water into her face and manipulated it to form a mask, plugging up her nose and mouth that latched firmly against her face.
"Mmmph! Mmmmph!"
"What's wrong? You're acting like you're underwater~" She said, conjuring up waves of water and unleashed a tidal wave, adding ice to the mix to make it a slush wave, slamming into Phantom Esdeath that pushed her against a wall. She conjured an ice sword in one hand and water in the other as she lunged and slashed her, cutting through the watery mask.
Phantom Esdeath gasped for air, only for Esdeath to grab her by the throat as icicles formed in her knees and thrusted her knee into her gut, impaling her as she tossed Phantom Esdeath to the side, then she raised her hand to make the temperature around them much colder… to the point where it looked like the snowflakes were frozen in time.
"What…?" Phantom Esdeath looked around as Esdeath calmly approached her. "What is this!"
"I've lowered the temperature in this snow storm to the point where it would seem as if time had come to a stand still. In short… you're hallucinating."
"But your friends are in this snowstorm too!"
"True, but I decide if time flows freely for them. To you, time has stopped. To anyone else? It's an ordinary snow storm."
Phantom Esdeath growled, taking some steps as her body started to freeze over, her whole body turning to ice.
"It's ironic that the cold never bothered me and how I'm immune to ice attacks, so it's quite amusing to see myself get frozen so easily." She said as Phantom Esdeath attempted to fight it off, as she conjured up another rapier and swung at Esdeath, only to freeze just before the rapier could touch her.
Esdeath smiled, pressing her hand against her head. "Checkmate." She said, as Phantom Esdeath's icy prison shattered alongside with her, leaving behind five pieces of Leongar's soul.

"That was sensational!" Penny's eyes sparkled.
"Truly awesome!" SAPR agreed.
"Holy Mary mother of Joseph!" Soldier said in shock.
"H-holy shit…" Ryuji could only say. "Glad she's on our side!"
"Thank heavens for that." Chiaki agreed.
"Yeah… I don't want to go out like that." Ann shuddered.
"That… that was true artistic beauty!" Yusuke said as Esdeath went back to normal.
Laxus chuckled. "I can definitely tell those two are proud of her."
"...She scares me." Elfilin whimpered.
"Very respectable, I'll give her that." Strange complimented.
Mercury shuddered. Remind me to never get on her bad side… He looked over to see Laura who looked almost unfazed. "...And how come you're not scared of this?"
"I'm used to seeing her like this…" She grimaced. "Well… kinda."
"Kinda?"
Esdeath chuckled, ruffling Laura's hair playfully. "Let's not worry about that~" She said as she then gave Chiaki the souls. "I believe these-"
"No, you keep 'em. Think of it as a trophy for defeating that hag."
Esdeath blinked before chuckling. "If you insist." She said, putting them away. "So, Penny. How many does this make?"
"An even two hundred!" Penny smiled.
"Excellent. Now let's move on." Esdeath said as they got on their rides and took off.
"...Is it just me or is she really scary, even though she's on our side?" Marx asked.
"She's formidable. There's nothing scary about her." Galacta said.
"Agreed." Dark Meta Knight said.
"...Still, I'm glad she's not our enemy." Daroach said with the animal friends nodding.

"Soooo, what are we going to be hearing this time?" Hajime wondered.
"Anything goes at this point." Gundham said.
"I… am… Truth! The voice of the Covenant!"
"And so… you must be silenced."
"I paid your girlfriend a visit this morning."
"...What did you do?"
"I made her a snack."
"..NO!"
"Sheesh, I'm not THAT crazy!"
"That show makes me sad…" Akira said.
"You're not the only one." Futaba sighed.
I still need to look into that. Chiaki thought.
"Are you invisible and you're gonna, like, fart on me?"
"Flip the pickle over!"
"What, I'm gonna touch it and you're gonna say it's an alien dick or something."
"Come on, flip the pickle, Morty! You're not gonna regret it. The pay off is huge! I turned myself into a pickle, Morty! Boom! Big reveal! I'm a pickle! What do you think about that? I TURNED MYSELF INTO A PICKLE!"
"I just got a call from the secretary. I'm gonna be running point on the scepter."
"Sir? I don't understand."
"We got word there may be an attempt to steal it."
"Sorry Cap, I can't give you the scepter."
"I'm gonna have to call the Director."
"That's okay. Trust me. …Hail Hydra."
"HAIL HYDRA!" Deadpool chanted as Strange gave him a dirty look. "What?"
*Nokia Ring Tone*
"Huh?" Deadpool searched for his pocket, pulling out his phone. "...No, it's not me. Hey, does anyone have a Nokia on standby?"
"Those things are old news." Strange said.
"Nope, not me." Kyoko said.
"Nada." Sonia shook her head.
"Okay… odd…"
"Oh, is that right? Well, I sure hope somebody picks up that phone. BECAUSE I *bleep* ING CALLED IT!"
*Nokia Ring Tone*
"Rrrrgh! I swear, it's not coming from me!" Deadpool said.
Dyna Blade let out an annoyed screech.
"Oh, you're annoyed?" Deadpool grumbled.
"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry."
"What are you sorry for?"
"So many things, I don't know. It's hard to choose."
"How about for dating my mom?"
"Maybe that's-"
"And for dumping her on her birthday!"
"Yes."
"Okay, just… don't ever date a member of my family again."
"Okay, I promise. For the record, your mom came onto me."
SLAP!
"That… sounded like he deserved it." Hazel said.
"Poyo." Kirby agreed.
"Mhm, totally!" Deadpool nodded.

"OH, FOR THE LOVE OF, WHERE IS THAT COMING FROM!" Deadpool yelled.
"Well, luckily, we're pulling up at our next stop." Strange said as they came in for a landing to Forgo Wastelands.

"Ah, good! Into the desert!" Deadpool said.
"Well, better than freezing…" Albedo said as they walked through the desert, easily taking care of the enemies as they walked through the path as they walked around the pillars and kept going where they would see Gigatzos shooting cannonballs over the poisonous ground. Strange put up a spell to block them as they walked across the path as Esdeath cleaned the poison out with water jets until they reached the star rift, picking up nine pieces of Leongar's soul, then they walked through.
They hopped out on the other side where a Poison Croakum spat out poison, only for Umber to use Waterga on it as they safely climbed up where Reimu, Kasen, Byakuren, Mamizou and Miko flew on ahead and proceeded to lay waste to any enemy in sight, leaving another Poison Croakum for last as Esdeath, Francisca and Mipha immediately destroyed it with a water jetstream.
"You're getting better with that water manipulation." Francisa noted.
"Thanks." Esdeath said as Chiaki took the seven pieces of Leongar's soul and put it away as they went into another rift portal, finding themselves at Alivel Mall.
"...Oh geez… I hope we don't encounter Phantom Eliminators…" Chiaki shuddered.
"If that happens, I'll dispose of them myself." Strange said as they walked through the mall, destroying any patches of poison while destroying Gabons, Mumbies and Pactos as they continued through the mall. Chiaki and Umber were on edge, the latter having his Keyblade out while Chiaki had chaotic energy course through her hands.
Once they made it through and saw ten soul pieces guarded by a harmless Totenga, Chiaki immediately aimed her hand at the souls to draw them to her. However, her hand was shaking like a leaf while Umber started sweating nervously.
"What's with you two?" Ridley asked.
"Eliminator Heartless." Futaba responded.
"I don't get it. They don't sound so tough."
"Famous last words." Kyoko mumbled.
Come on, focus…! Chiaki thought as Hajime and Sonia put comforting hands on her shoulder as Elfilin sat on her head, which she took a deep breath and concentrated, bringing them over to her as she put them into the rift.
Esdeath turned her head. "I don't see any Eliminator… we're good." She reassured as they walked into the rift.
They walked through the Moonlight Canyon, climbing up the ladders as it got a bit windy where Strange conjured up a spell to block the wind again as they walked through the pathways, quickly traversing through crumbling terrain as Chiaki and Xena teleported them above the cliffs and then climbed up the ladder at the shipping containers where they would find nine pieces of souls where Chiaki put them away and they walked into the rift… and then found themselves in a dark cave.
"Definitely new." Chiaki said.
"Poyo." Kirby agreed as he found a Dragon Fire essence as he picked it up and started breathing fire to light the torches, lighting the path as they saw spikes on the ground as they traversed through the darkness, with Kirby lighting the way forward… and lighting up some pesky Scarfies as they reached the end, finding nine more pieces of Leongar's soul as Chiaki put them away and walked into the rift.
End BGM
Once they walked out of the other side, they would see a phantom armadillo. "There's Sillydillo…" Umber said.
"Leave this bad boy to me." Bowser walked forward, only for Dedede to jump in with him… and then Sillydillo turned around and roared.

Armor Plated Illusion - Phantom Sillydillo
Sillydillo rolled into his shell as Bowser did the same, both of them immediately connecting… only for Bowser to push Sillydillo away and into a wall, where he bounced off and landed in the middle of the arena as Dedede then jumped up and hammered Sillydillo hard enough to crack the ground and caused them to fall into the other arena.
Phantom Sillydillo roared and rolled again, this time kicking up a sandstorm as Bowser rolled into his shell, both of them connecting as they struggled to keep up… only for Dedede to jump in and hammered Phantom Sillydillo's shell hard enough… to completely shatter said shell.
"Eeek!" Phantom Sillydillo yelped, noticing he was in his underwear as he covered himself up… only to get punched/hammered away outside of the arena, exploding into light as the five soul pieces flew toward them.

"...Well, that was anti climactic." Umber said.
"You got two final bosses going against a lesser boss. It's to be expected." Kyoko said casually.
"...I could've done that!" Ridley said.
"Suuuure you could, lesser boss." Nyx smirked.
"HEY!" He glared as Chiaki took the soul pieces.
"How many is that now?"
"Two hundred and forty nine." SAPR said.
"Alright, let's-"
"Wait… something's rustling in that bush!" Donatello said as they turned to see… a Phantom Nameless jumping out.
BGM: Slimy Spring Galaxy (Super Mario Galaxy 2)
"AAAAAAAH!" Deadpool yelled, jumping into Strange's arms.
"...I don't get it. What's so bad about a Rabbit Grimm?" Strange asked.
"Stephen, do you recall Monty Python?" Deadpool asked.
"Yeah? …Ooooh. …Wait, why am I holding you?" He dropped him.
"OOOOF!"
"...Wait… it's not doing anything…" Umber said.
"Probably waiting to lower our guards." Chiaki said cautiously.
"...Poyo…?" Kirby walked over to it.
BB-8 yelped, rolling over and pushing Kirby back while Deadpool pulled out a twelve yard stick and reached over, gently nudging the Nameless.
"Aaaaany second now, you're gonna be Tazmanian Deviling this thing…"
"Guys? I think he's harmless." Reimu said as the Nameless turned to look at them and hopped in one direction, twitching its whiskers…
…And just stood there.
"It did something!" Deadpool said.
"Don't move. It could probably smell fear." Ridley said.
"It probably could!" Deadpool agreed… and then Ridley unleashed his plasma breath on the Phantom Nameless with Bowser pitching in to burn it alive until nothing remained of it.

"Yes, that was truly frightening." Ridley rolled his eyes.
"I could've bagged it myself." Sniper said.
"Yeah, truly… that was so frightening." Scout shook his head.
"I've seen pantyhose scarier than that!" Soldier said.
"Yeah, and I've seen-... i'm sorry, what?" Demoman looked at him strangely.
I don't want to know… I don't want to know… Chiaki thought.
"Perhaps we could have used zhat phantom to experiment on it for… research purposes!" Medic said. "Maybe we could use zhe phantom to see if we can extend life into someone!"
"Doctor." Heavy put a hand on his shoulder. "I love you, as a friend, but even I believe you need professional help."
"That's bad if his best friend thinks he needs it…" Deadpool said.
"Yeah, definitely!" Ridley agreed.
"Okay, I'm just gonna say it… I find it weird that you, of all people, have standards." Chiaki said.
"I know! I raze planets, I destroyed Samus and Chell's home and made Samus's life a living hell, I'm the embodiment of destruction… so you'd think I'd be all for Ruby's life shortening. I'd be all happy if I did it myself! And yet, here I am."
"Strange, isn't it?" Medic asked.
"See, here's the thing, doctor. I put art into my craft! What you do? There's no art to it. At all!" He said. "I'm a professional and you're just a little kid making a volcano at a science fair. Ooooh, riveting!"
"This is most peculiar coming from you." Mewtwo said.
"It's called being three dimensional. Something Dark Samus lacked in that department. "Oh, look at me! I'm a blue raspberry flavored Samus! Phazon for everyone! I only have one brain cell and that is phazon!"." He said in a mocking voice. "Hah. And she wonders why she lost. Oh, wait… Cinder incinerated her. Good riddance!"
"Well, let's just keep going no-" Suddenly, a rift portal opened up, causing Strange to raise an eyebrow as two swords stabbed the ground.
"Two swords but no owner?" Gilgamesh wondered. "Fecto's not even trying… but don't mind if I do~!"
"Wait, something about those swords are… odd." Carmen stopped him.
"Not to mention familiar." Chiaki added.
"Oh look, brother! Dante's here!"
"Oh yes, there he is. It's been a while, Dante!"
"...You look terrible. You didn't age gracefully."
Dante's eye twitched. "Oh, son of a bitch…"
"What's wrong?" Umber asked.
"Ah, I remember those two." Vergil said. "Agni and Rudra."
"...I see the fetus looked into my memories." Dante grumbled.
"So, they were your swords?" Gilgamesh asked.
"Once upon a time, yes. I got rid of 'em. They got a bit too chatty so I disposed of them. Thought that would be the end of 'em but… they're back to haunt me."
He heard a chuckle from Strange. "And what's so funny?"
"I find it highly amusing you're getting so bent out of shape over… talking swords."
"I'm not getting bent out of shape! If anything, it's those clowns!"
"He did tell us to stop talking if we were to go with him!" Agni said.
"Yes! It was as if he was annoyed with us."
Strange gave Dante another amused smirk.
"...You're enjoying this, aren't you?"
"Very much so, yes."
"Sooo, you going to take those swords?" Gilgamesh asked.
"Not on your life."
"Music to my ears!" Gilgamesh eagerly walked over to them, only for Umber to pick them up.
"Mind if I take 'em for a spin?" Umber asked.
"Hey, it's no skin off my back." Dante shrugged as Umber strapped them to his back.
"Name's Umber Lightwave, your new master."
"Oh, I like that name!" Agni said.
"Yes! Rolls off the tongue." Rudra agreed.
"And… you have my permission to annoy Dante every time I go to see him."
"WHAT?" Dante yelled, seeing Vergil and Strange trying to hold back their laughter.
"Aww, I wanted those swords…" Gilgamesh said.
"Maybe next time, big guy." Carmen smiled.
Strange opened up a portal as they got in/on their rides and flew off.

"So, do we have an understanding? Get the fuck out of my country."
"...I'm going to feed you your own heart."
"That's… a unique threat." Jade said.
"Sounds like something Dark Meta Knight would say." Marx said.
"...Would I?"
"The combatants are set. We've run the data on all possibility. One. One possibility."
"IT'S TIME FOR AQUAMAN'S FUNERAAAAAAAL!"
"That sounds like a joke battle…" Chiaki said. Wait… is Death Battle still going on?
"Considering he lost to a yellow sponge, yes it was." Deadpool nodded.
"Wait, wha-... I was joking!"
"A yellow sponge killing this Aquaman guy… I need to do research on this yellow sponge." Jade said.
"Yeeeeah, you're gonna be researching for a while." Futaba sweatdropped.
"No need." Kyoko said, sipping on her thermos filled with coffee.
"You had that with you?" Bowser asked.
"I knew it would be a long day the moment I heard about Remnant-born Ultimates."
"Remnant-born Ultimates?" Sonia perked up.
"Yeah, apparently there are Ultimates that are unique to Remnant. They even have their own semblances unlike us."
"Sometimes I like to think our talents are semblances." Gundham said. "And then there's Nanami's gaming powers."
Chiaki sweatdropped. "I never considered that a semblance… though that does make me wonder what my own semblance would be if I was born in Remnant."
"Probably video game related." Hajime teased, causing Chiaki to snicker.
"Hmm, I wonder what mine would be…" Kyoko wondered thoughtfully.
"Wonder no longer! Back in Toad Town, I actually managed to get a hold of a piece of someone's aura and through analyzing, not to mention getting a hold of some dust, I was able to backwards engineer it to where I could give someone zheir own aura and semblance! Perfect for non-Remnant born people."
"...There's a string attached." Nyx mumbled.
"Of course, it hasn't been properly tested. I plan on testing it on Grif soon."
"There it is."
"That sounds incredibly dangerous." Ann said.
"And we're just finding out about this now?" Kyoko asked.
"Zhere was never an opportunity to mention it. Zhat, if I'm correct on zhis, was my first opportunity to bring it up." Medic explained.
"He's right. I've never heard of it till now." Engi said.
"Mmph mmph." Pyro agreed.
"Considering my gaming powers and my chaos magic, I think adding a semblance on top of that would be completely overkill… that's just my opinion though." Chiaki said.
"Tell that to Ruby, Weiss and Yang when they got forms and magic on their hands." Iris said.
"Yeah, but do they have the ability to… drop a moon on a Grimm world or be one with chaos?" Chiaki pointed out.
"She's got you there." Laxus said.
"Fair." Iris nodded.
"I don't mean to sound like I'm bragging though…"
"Execute Order 66."
"...Yes, Lord Sidious."
"Rex! It's Anakin… I feel as if something terrible has happened. …Rex?"
"No! I'll do it…"
"Rex, what's happening?"
"Stay back! Find him! Find him… Fives… find him! FIVES!"
"So nice of this to respectfully resume after that conversation." Deadpool snarked.
*Nokia Ring Tone*
"OH COME ON!" Deadpool yelled.
"WILL YOU TURN THAT DISRESPECTFUL JUNK OFF!"
"Respect the classics, maaaaan! It's Hendrix!"
Suddenly, an aura wrapped around Xena. "Huh?"
"Xena? What's going on?" Nyx asked.
"No idea… but it feels like-" She was suddenly lifted up from Dyna Blade and was yanked harshly toward a planet. "Waaaaaaaaah!"
"Xena?!" Magnolia looked on in surprise. "Where are you going?!"
"Penny, SAPR, where are they headed?" Jade asked.
"According to my data banks, they're going to some place called… Forgo Battlefield?" Penny wondered.
Esdeath clenched her fists. "We need to make a detour. I have a pretty good feeling what "Battlefield" could imply."
"Agreed." Chiaki nodded as she turned the X-Wing around and flew off where Dyna Blade, the Lor Starcutter and Palkia flew off as well.
Pause BGM
Xena slammed into the ground. "Rrrgh…" She grunted, rubbing her head.
"You alright?"
"Yeah, I'm fine… how about you?"
"Little shaken up-" Yagami came out. "But I'm feeling okay."
"That's good." Xena nodded as she looked around. "...Why does this look famili-" Her eyes widened. "No…"
Yagami grimaced. "Our home town… Bob-omb Village."
BGM: Sacred Moon (Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMix)
"So that's Fecto's game… he went deep into our memories…" Xena closed her eyes. "I didn't think I'd ever want to relive this though…"
Yagami took her hand, grasping it. "Let's go. We'll go through this together."
"Right…" Xena nodded. "Let's go, sis… let's walk down memory lane together."
With a nod, the duo walked through the village.
"Mommy? Why did we move to this village?"
"Because sweetheart, your dad's best friend is a Bob-omb and he asked him to move our family here."
"But don't Bob-ombs always have an explosive temper?"
"Not all of them do. They can be quite gentle."
"Oh, okay!"
They looked up to see meteors coming down.
"...I thought those were bombs." Xena said.
"Back then, our innocent minds thought it was just a meteor shower that got way too close…" Yagami reminded as the meteors turned into bombs and eradicated the village.
"GET DOWN, SWEETIE!"
"Nnngh!" Xena closed her eyes.
"Mom… dad?! Mom! Dad! Wake up! Why are you sleeping?! Our home is gone! Mom! Dad!"
Yagami gritted her teeth.
"No… no… everything I love is gone… my friends, my family… AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"
A tear ran down Xena's cheek. "I hate this…"
"So do I…" Yagami tightened her grip on Xena's hand. Xena did the same. "I'm not going to let go…"
"Neither will I…" Xena nodded as a rift portal opened up as they walked through… and then found themselves at the bottom of the mountain at Bob-omb Battlefield.
"Hmm? And who might you be?"
"I'm Xena, you piece of shit! You killed my family!"
"...You're going to have to be more specific. A lot of families died in this war. I'm pretty sure yours was insignificant as the traitors."
"RAAAAAAH! I'LL KILL YOU!"
"Kill me? Without a mustache? You're quite bold, but facial hair defines power and you… you lack the facial hair. But, I'm not one to shy away from a duel. I accept!"
"...Yeah, and then he pulls a fast one on us by tricking us into a cannon." Yagami mumbled as they walked up the mountain, only for a rift portal to open up and brought them into a mental hospital.
"War is cold, yes… but, will we proceed to make you better? We most certainly will!"
"...Thank you, Doctor Toadley…"
"You are welcome. I realize putting you here may be a bit uncalled for, but I can assure you regular hospitals don't have this kind of treatment. We will have our treatments here where you will recover."
The two of them walked through the hospital, still not letting go of each other as they found a door labled "Xena".
"This is a horrible idea."
"I'd say she's well enough to stay at her new home, Beacon Academy."
"She's not stable enough to be a huntress!"
"Perhaps. But we will keep a close eye on her."
"But her mental stability… does it still need work? It most certainly does!"
"But everyone in this town fears her, which makes her unable to be fully well. Perhaps if we took her to the academy, no one will know her and she will heal."
"Ozpin, I fear you may come to regret this decision."
"Only time will tell…"
Xena looked away from the door, closing her eyes as Yagami gently opened it up to see a rift portal as they wound up in Peach's Castle, where the only door they would see would be the one leading to Bob-omb Battlefield.
"Just make it stop already…" Xena groaned.
"We're almost there… even though I want this to end myself." Yagami said as they walked through the door, staring at the painting in front of them.
"Huh, it's a terrible day for rain…"
"YOU!"
"Hmm? Wha-… you?! I thought I had killed you after launching you away!"
"Well, guess what? I'm back… and I'm going to KILL YOU!"
"Hmph, you think you can take me down? This is just going to be like last time!"
"We'll see about THAT!"
"...Is that what we sounded like?" Xena asked.
"Ooof, I remember us saying something much cooler than that." Yagami grimaced as they hopped into the painting, and found themselves at the Beanbean Kingdom, where they saw a trail of dead Beanies in front of them.
"Oh gosh…" Xena closed her eyes. "They were all so innocent too…"
Yagami tightened her grip on Xena's hand as hard as she could. "Almost there…"
"Please don't come near me… Please don't come near me…"
"Why hello there~!"
"Ack! No! No! I didn't do anything wrong! No!"
"Hehehe, why are you afraid? I only want to… redecorate your face."
"No! No! Stay away! No! NO!"
"It's just you and me~"
"Get away! I didn't do anything wrong! No! No! NOOOOOOOO!"
"I'm trying to block it out… it's not working…"
"I wish it did…" Yagami mumbled as they walked ahead where a rift portal opened up as they found themselves in a space ship.
"Wait, is this…?"
Yagami's eyes widened. "No… let's go." She said, walking off in a hurry while dragging Xena behind her, the latter trying to catch up.
"Oh man, it feels good to drop this facade!"
"Xena? What are you doing?!"
"Xena? Ohohohoho, no… she's gone. It's Dark Xena now!"
"Get out of my head, get out of my head, get out of my head…" Yagami said, desperately trying to find the Star Rift.
"Nnngh, oh yeah? Well… if you're Dark Xena… then where are those fancy dark eyes of yours, or the demented voice?"
"Oh, that? Simple, really… I evolved where I don't need them anymore!"
"Shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up…"
"Sis…?"
"The last time I was unleashed, I was weak because I lost to the likes of you, but over time, I evolved… and look where I am now!"
"You evolved inside Xena?!"
"WHERE IS THAT DAMN STAR RIFT?!" Yagami yelled as she went into a full on run.
"Whoa!" Xena yelped, running alongside Yagami, noticing tears running down Yagami's cheeks. …I get it now. She hates this particular moment in our lives. Not that I blame her.
"That's right, I don't need those eyes and that demented voice anymore-"
At that moment, a Star Rift appeared before them as Yagami started sprinting, Xena desperately trying to be in sync with her twin.
"I've gotten stronger. All I needed was one good explosion to set that weakling off, and wouldn't you know it-"
The twins burst through the Rift Portal, finding themselves at the top of the mountain in Bob-omb Battlefield.
"Why… why do you keep pushing me out… why… after all these years… you continue to push me away like I'm some sort of monster?!"
End BGM
Yagami collapsed on her knees, tears flowing freely as Xena knelt down in front of her. "Sis…"
"I hate it… I hate that…" Yagami quietly sobbed. "Of all the things to relive… why in that Oum forsaken UFO?! I was at my worst during that… I almost killed everyone and I even pushed you away to the point where you almost didn't exist anymore!"
"Yagami…"
"Worst of all… I would've been truly alone if I did what I almost did… nobody would've helped me…"
A gentle hand caressed her cheek, seemingly wiping her tears as Yagami looked up to see Xena, where a tear fell from her left eye. "You're not alone… you have me. You have a lot of friends, you have a boyfriend, you have everyone."
A Pokeball opened up as Yagami turned to see her Clodsire gently nudging her. "And you have him too."
Xena gently cupped her chin, smiling. "The fact that we're still here proves that we got stronger as time went on. We went from pulling each other apart to becoming one, and now we're the most powerful psychics in our team. We still think of Jade, Iris and Nyx as our family now."
"Y-yeah…" Yagami sniffed.
"I hated to relive that too… but I was more worried about you. Not that I blame you…"
Yagami wiped her tears. "That was honestly the worst moment of our life… we were at rock bottom."
"But we climbed out together." Xena smiled, gently kissing her on the forehead. "I love you, sis."
Yagami smiled as well. "I love you too…" The two of them embraced, wrapping their arms around each other.
"So… enjoyed the memory lane?"
The two of them turned, seeing a phantom version of King Bob-omb standing in front of them.
Xena was the first to stand up, glaring at him. "You… you have no reason to be here."
"Perhaps I do."
"No… no you don't." Yagami said. "You may be a part of our lives, but we've moved past you. Once we did, and both of us settled our differences… we became stronger."
Phantom King Bob-omb chuckled. "Curious. How strong have you become? I want to find out."
The twins shared a look and with a nod, the two of them snapped their fingers as Phantom King Bob-omb distorted before disappearing… and behind Phantom King Bob-omb were phantom versions of the twins.
"That's how powerful we are." Xena said.
"Oh, isn't that just cute." Phantom Xena rolled her eyes. "So you got rid of our puppet… like that should scare us."
"We're just as powerful as you. You think you can take us both on?" Phantom Yagami smirked.
"You know something… we're kinda just like Esdeath." Xena said. "We tend to hold back to give our opponents a chance. Those who deserve it? They don't receive any mercy."
Phantom Xena laughed. "Oh, that's cute. You think you're just holding back! Then again, that just shows how weak you are if you hold back."
"Look at that, sis. Fecto thinks we're weak." Yagami mocked.
"Oh, that's adorable. He thinks the power we showed to him was all that we had~" Xena let out a giggle.
"What are you talking about? We're powerful!" Phantom Yagami said.
"Oh honey… we're actually much stronger than that." Yagami said as a psychic aura surrounded her.
"Would you like to find out~?" Xena smiled as an aura surrounded her as well, both of their eyes glowing.
"We're not trapped in this battlefield with you…" Yagami smirked.
"No… you're trapped in here with us."

Twins of Illusionary Proportions - Xena and Yagami
Xena and Yagami levitated off of the ground as did the Phantom Twins. The four of them proceeded to fire telekinetic lasers, all of them connecting… until Xena teleported above them and fired balls of energy toward them, striking the two as Yagami's laser struck them right after.
Phantom Xena growled, teleporting to Xena as she unleashed fireballs toward Xena, but she stopped them with her hand and sent them back, striking Phantom Xena as she clapped her hands and created clones of herself. "What…?!" Phantom Xena turned around as they all fired bolts of lightning at her as she created a shield to protect herself, while the real Xena was above her and snapped her fingers, destroying the shield as the lightning struck her, then Xena teleported in front of her and thrusted her knee into her gut to make her hunch over as Xena telekinetically picked her up and threw her to the ground, then creating javelins of pure energy and threw them down, impaling Phantom Xena where they exploded shortly after.
Yagami, meanwhile, dodged the attacks that Phantom Yagami was throwing at her until she delivered a strong punch into Yagami's gut… where Yagami exploded and knocked Phantom Yagami back as the real Yagami teleported to her, punching her in the face and teleported to her back as energetic blades wrapped around her hands and slashed her, unleashing powerful waves of energy as well, knocking Phantom Yagami away, only for Yagami to snap her fingers and teleported her phantom self over to her and energy punched her in the face, sending a shockwave that also struck Phantom Xena.
"Nnngh!" Phantom Xena grunted as Xena snapped her fingers as chains suddenly wrapped around her phantom clone as the chains suddenly burst into flame as she screamed, then Xena flipped over and heel kicked her in the head to send her faceplanting into the ground where the chains exploded violently.
Phantom Yagami unleashed telekinetic waves of energy but Yagami stopped these from hitting her as she switched places with her as Phantom Yagami was hit by her own waves. "Gyaaaah!" She yelped as Yagami created electric, fire, water and energy bombs to surround her and with a snap of her fingers, they all exploded as Phantom Yagami was sent crashing to the ground and into Phantom Xena, the two becoming one again.
"Shall we finish them off, dear sister of mine~?" Xena asked.
"Oh yes, let's have ourselves a hell of a finale~" Yagami smirked as the two teleported on both sides of Phantom Xena as they both lifted her up in the air and started to telekinetically pull her apart.
"Nnngh… aaagh! Stop… stop… please! I beg you…! STOP!" Phantom Xena begged. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" She screamed as she was torn in half, immediately disappearing and leaving behind twenty five souls.
End BGM
"A shame, really… I was wanting to make them hallucinate." Xena said with a giggle.
"Holy crap…" Chiaki said as they turned to see everyone standing there in awe.
"And now you know why they tend to hold back." Nyx said.
"Clearly!" Haru nodded.
"Hmph, I always wondered how you fared at full power. Now I know." Mewtwo chuckled.
Ridley shuddered. "...Somehow, I'm thankful I dodged a bullet in the Phazon War…"
"You sure you guys aren't native to Gensokyo? I think you two would fit right in with those powers." Reimu teased.
"I think they'd be a perfect fit in the Myouren Temple." Byakuren said, causing Miko to roll her eyes.
"Nah, I'd say the Great Mausoleom." Miko said, causing Byakuren to glare at her.
"Myouren Temple!"
"Great Mausoleom!"
"Girls, girls… you're both pretty." Mamizou got between the two. "Let's reserve our boob measuring contest for another day."
"Fine by me." Both said, causing Kasen to sigh.
Esdeath smiled. "I think you girls are fine just the way you are." She said.
"...Hell of a backstory to get through though." Dante added.
"Tell me about it." Nyx nodded as she approached the girls. "You… girls wanna talk about it? I imagine it was rough for the two of you."
"Maybe later. Right now, we need to see if Fecto's still out there." Xena said.
Nyx smiled. "Alright then." She then hugged the twins as Iris, Jade, Esdeath and Magnolia did the same as well, the two of them returning the hug, and then when they parted, Umber immediately hugged them.
"You've been through so much…"
"Yeah, we have…" Xena smiled.
"But we're still here~" Yagami smiled, both of them kissing him on the cheek as Yagami decided to go back inside of Xena as she took the souls.
"Chiaki, do you want-"
"They're yours." Chiaki smiled.
"Alright then." Xena said, putting them away. "How many is that now?"
"Two hundred and seventy four." Penny added.
"I feel like it'll end at an even three hundred." Shadow said.
"You're probably right." Strange said as they left Forgo Battlefield.

"And now… this world shall know pain… Almighty PUSH!"
"How almighty was it? Are we talking about pushing down a wall?" Laura asked.
"Moooore like pushing away an entire village and destroying it." Futaba said.
"...Oh. That's terrifying."
"Why would you ever want to run twenty six miles?"
"The same reason you stayed on the couch for the entire month of July!"
"Aaaaah… I get it. A sense of accomplishment."
"...I wouldn't call that an accomplishment." Leonardo said.
"I want the rebels to know that I'm alive… that I'm in District Eight, where the Capital just bombed a hospital filled with unarmed men, women and children and there will be no survivors! If you think for one second that the Capital will ever treat us fairly… you are lying to yourself! Because we know who they are and what they do. THIS is what they do! And we must fight back!"
"Yes, preach it, queen!" Deadpool cheered.
"I have a message for President Snow! You can torture us, and bomb us, and burn our districts to the ground… but do you see that? Fire is catching… and if we burn, you burn with us!"
"Heck of a good speech." Ridley said.
"Yes, kinda sounds like what we did with you in the Phazon War." Kyoko said.
Ridley sweatdropped. "Had to ruin the moment, didn't you?"
"Hey, who's the pig?"
"Are you talking to me?"
"Uh oh, he called him a pig…"
"Are you talking to me?!"
"Shouldn't have done that."
"ARE YOU TALKING TO ME?!"
"Now they're in for it!"
"THEY CALL ME… MISTER PIG! AAAAAAAAAAH!"
Chiaki giggled. "Never gets old…"

The group headed straight into the factory and went down an elevator… where they would find Phantom Dedede in front of them.
"...Leave the clobberin' to me." Dedede said as he walked over to him.
"I'll take a crack at him!" Bowser said.
"No! You had your fight with your dark clone, now it's my turn!" Dedede said.
"He's not wrong." Kyoko said.
"Rrrgh… fine." Bowser folded his arms as Dedede approached the arena as Phantom Dedede turned around.
"So… you arrived." Phantom Dedede said. "One on one?"
"Heheheh! You got that right, buddy boy!"
"I am the superior King Dedede!"
"If anyone's the superior and real king around here, it's me! Those who mock me with a pale image of yours truly? I will clean. Your. CLOCK."

Both Dededes jumped over as they both swung their hammers, knocking each other back as Phantom Dedede charged ahead and tackled the king, but Dedede hammered him in the face to knock him away as he then threw Gordos at him where Phantom Dedede did the same, although with Gordo Bars.
Dedede smirked, sucking up the Gordo Bars and spat them back out, striking Phantom Dedede in the face to knock him down but he got back up, jumping up in the air and hammering the ground, creating massive icicles along the way but Dedede rolled out of the way and hammered the icicles, sending them back at the Phantom King.
Phantom Dedede jumped in and hammered Dedede, but the latter blocked and parried him, shoving the hammer into his big gut and hammered him away, sending him flying and landing on his back.

"Heheheh! Had enough already?"
"Hah… hah… no, I'm just gettin' started!" Phantom Dedede pulled out his beast mask and got on all fours, roaring.
Dedede smirked. "Well, if you insist!" He pulled out his own mask and put it on. "Heheheh!"

Illusory Primal Nemesis - Phantom Forgo Dedede
Phantom Dedede lunged and tackled him, but Dedede jumped up to avoid it and then came down, electrically hammering him and wobbling the stage as lava splashed everywhere, then he hammered him away as he sent out missiles at him.
Phantom Dedede jumped high into the air, throwing down meteors at him, destroying the missiles… however Dedede got into a stance and hammered the meteors back at him, striking Phantom Dedede as it was enough to send him crashing to the ground.
Phantom Dedede let out a groan, noticing Dedede casually laying on his side, giving him a smug look while resting his head on his hand. A cross vein appeared on Phantom Dedede's head and roared, charging at Dedede as he raised his hammer and slammed it into him to crush him while not moving from his position.
"Heheheh!" Dedede smirked, getting back up and swung his hammer to knock him back… and then spun around with said hammer, charging straight for Phantom Dedede and clobbered him in the face to send him crashing into a wall as he bounced off and landed on the ground.
Phantom Dedede snarled, punching the ground to tilt half of the platform into the lava as he started to suck Dedede up. Dedede smirked, charging up his hammer as he launched himself toward his phantom clone… and swung his fully charged hammer into his face to send him flying into the lava, exploding into light.

"Don't mess with this king!" Dedede declared.
"I'm starting to think Fecto underestimated our abilities." Nyx said.
"Whatever gave you that idea?" Mercury deadpanned, glancing at Esdeath and the Ayami twins.
Twenty six soul pieces flew out, landing in Dedede's hand as he put them in his robe. "I'll save that for later."
"That makes an even three hundred!" Penny smiled.
"Excellent. I think we got 'em all." Chiaki said as they started to walk out.
"Superior king", my tail. Everyone knows I'm the real deal!" Bowser said.
"In your dreams, turtle boy!"
Bowser snarled. "You want to go?! We can fight for Umber here!"
"Guys… GUYS!" Umber got between them. "Instead of fighting and who gets custody of me… how about this? One week, I'm with Dedede and the other week, I'm with Lord Bowser. That fair?"
Both kings looked at him and then looked at each other. "That works." They both said.
"Hmm, yes, that does sound reasonable." Kyoko said.
"But what about pummeling Wade over here?" Strange asked.
"The one who pummels him the most gets to have him for the first week." Kyoko said.
"...I'm definitely going to need more pillow armor." Deadpool said.
"Ya know, the way how that sounded, it sounds like Bowser and Dedede went through a divorce." Jack said.
Chiaki's eyes widened. "Oh my gosh, I can see that…" Aaaand now I need to unsee that.
"Guess the honeymoon phase of their lives fizzled out quick." Michelangelo teased.
"WE AIN'T A COUPLE!" Both yelled and walked off with a 'hmph'!"
"They were just joking! Sheesh…" Raphael shook his head as they went back on their rides.
"Alright… I see something up ahead!" Nyx said. "That could be where Leongar might be."
"Poyo poyo!" Kirby declared.
"He's right. Let's go!" Chiaki said as they flew off.
"Follow the spiders… why couldn't it follow the butterflies?!"
Unaware of them all, a red and yellow butterfly was secretly flying after them.
"Goodbye, friend of Hagrid."
"Can we panic now?!"
