Disclaimer: I do not own anything, expect the OCs. This is just a story for fun.

Several hours after the attack on the Citadel, Prismo tried to contact Archie on his office communicator, but he got no response. Prismo at first just presumed that Archie was busy and decided to try and call him later. The next day Prismo again tried to call Archie, but he still couldn't reach him. This made Prismo concerned and he called planet Olympia to alert them about the situation. A team was quickly put together and sent to investigate the Citadel.

At the wrecked remains of the Citadel there was a flash of light and several figures appeared. There were thirty three figures in total, the first twenty figures were called Spartan Warriors, who appeared to be humans who dressed in golden bronze armor and carriers dc spears and shields, ten of the other figures were members of an alien race called the Lebidopterins. The Lebidopterins were humanoid with white skin, blue hair, and large pink butterfly wings. They were carrying laser rifles. The last three figures were higher ranked warriors. One of them was Glob and the other two were a large yeti named Skips and a Technomancer cyborg named Techmo.

Skips was large and muscular covered in white fur, with pink skin, he was dressed in jeans, and a blue vest, with two metal gauntlets on his hands and a sledgehammer stranded to his back.

Techmo was a green humanoid dressed in a black jacket with a torn sleeve. He had white hair consisting of a goatee, sideburns, and a mohawk between the shaven sides of his head. The bionic portions of his body consisted of a mechanical eye and a robotic arm. Techmo was armed with a samurai sword.

(Author's Note: The Spartans and Lebidopterins are from Samurai Jack and Skips and Techmo are from Regular Show.)

The team of warriors looked at the wrecked remains of the Citadel with sadness, before moving forward looking for any prisoners or anyone who could tell them what happened. As the group moved on there was a flash of light near the Citadel and a square of space just seemed to vanish as a strange shadowy figure stepped out and the square closed.

"My. My. What a mess! And it looks like a bunch of high and mighty warriors have shown up to investigate it. I think I'll follow to see where this goes." Said the figure as he followed the group from a distance.

Skips and Techmo were checking out all the broken prison crystals to see who was out. Techmo used his powers to reactive the Citadel's prisoner inventory, so could view it.

"It's not good Skips. Several of the worst inmates have broken out including Shen, Hookocho, and Klorgbane." Said Techmo.

"We have to alert Iroh about his brother escaping. Man I can't believe my old enemy Klorgbane escaped." Muttered Skips.

"I hear you man. My old enemy Dr. Cerebral along with that genocidal machine REGIS broke out as well. And according to the Citadel's system Martin also managed to escape." Said Techmo as he looked through the system.

"Oh...great that jerk is out. His wife isn't going to be happy after all the stunts he pulled especially the one involved with accidentally banishing that kid of theres." Said Skips.

"Yeah I know. The guy pretty much destroyed his reputation and broke the heart of the one he loved." Said Techmo.

Glob flew down and joined the two warriors.

"Have you managed to locate Archie?"

"Yeah I think I'm picking him up in the inner prison." Said Techmo.

The group headed towards the largest structure and went inside it to the lowest level where they found the empty book chamber and the destroyed remains of Archie. Glob, Skips, and Techmo starred at Archie's remains with sadness, before the bowed their heads in respect to mourn the fallen warrior. The moment was interrupted by a voice.

"My. My. You look so glum. Allow me to brighten your mood!"

There was a bright flash of light followed by a explosion of confetti. Before the group stood a strange figure dressed like a newcomer primarily wore a black outfit with gloves and pointy-ended shoes along with a cap and cape with purple and white stripes, with the purple striped portions of the cap containing jingle bells on each end. He also wore a mask over his face that was stylized after a theatrical mask, only split in half so that the right side is white and the left side is black. The eyes were likewise were different colored black for the right eye, and yellow for the left. The mouth of the mask was colored red and set in a grin.

"Who are you?" Demanded Techmo as he pointed his sword at the jester.

"Master of dimensions... Pleaser of crowds... I am... Dimentio!" Exclaimed the jester excitedly, before he took a bow.

(Author's Note: I just threw Dimentio from Super Paper Mario into this story.)

"I've heard of you, your quit a troublemaker jester." Said Glob as he glared at Dimentio.

"Oh those are just the words of critics that can't take a joke and don't understand comedy." Said Dimentio.

"What about all the destroyed cities and destruction you caused? That sounds pretty evil to me." Said Glob.

"Oh those were all acts for the greater good. Trust me I did the universe a kindness when I destroyed those cities." Said Dimenito.

"Did you attack the Citadel and steal the book that was kept here?" Demanded Skips.

"Sorry no. Not my handy work, but I must say I would love to meet the people, who did it and congratulate them. This place was wrecked in style and the shattered remains of the warden is a nice touch." Said Dimentio.

Skips let out an angry bellow and hurled his sledgehammer at the jester, but as soon as the hammer hit Dimentio he exploded into a bunch of colorful paper butterflies. The warriors starred at the butterflies stunned, before Dimentio suddenly appeared next to Skips and threw an arm around him as if they were old friends. Skips just starred at the jester in shock.

"Close but no cigar my friend." Said Dimentio before he teleported over to the remains of Archie and picked up a large shard of crystal.

Everybody pointed their weapons at Dimentio and he just turned to face them.

"You have all been a wonderful audience, but I must be going. Big things are afoot. So I bid you all farewell!" Said Dimentio said with a bow before he vanished in a flash of light.

The group just looked at each other in confusion. First all the prisoners were free, the ancient book of evil was stolen, and then a crazy powerful jester showed up and stole a shard from Archie's remains. Things were just getting stranger and stranger. After looking through the prison the group gathered the remains of Archie to return to planet Olympia and given the fallen warrior a proper burial. Something big was coming and the people of Olympia could feel it.

Lightyears away on planet Earth, in the land of Ooo there was a place called the Mountain of Matthew. It was a stranger black jagged mountain that was surrounded by mystery. Nobody was sure what was in the mountain, but it had a strange forbidding appearance about it and whenever someone got near it they felt like they were being watched. Everybody in Ooo simply ignored the mountain and just avoid it. However on this particular day the mountain was going to receive an odd visitor. A penguin was walking up to the mountain and went inside. The bird felt he was being watched as soon as he walked into the mountain. Inside the mountain there were torches and pathways that lead deeper into the mountain. On one large wall there was a large stone painting depicting a large army of men fighting an army of monsters and above the two armies were a a large gold colored man and a green monstrous man with horns. The penguin moved on until it reached the center of the mountain and was confronted with the creature who lived within the mountain. A being known as Matthew.

Matthew was the size of a small house and he had the appearance of a white cloud with a hole in his left torso. The top of his head carved a hollow dent inside him. A closer exception of Matthew reveled he was made out of a rock like substance.

Matthew looked at his new guest with interest.

"Hello there Orgalorg. It's been a long time. I almost didn't recognize you in your current form."

The penguin's head split open and it's body began to change shape. Where the penguin once stood there was now all tall creature with a white head with multiple eyes and a beak on top of its head, and a yellow, scaled body that resembles a robe of sorts. The being was Orgalorg and he faced Matthew.

"Hello Matthew, it has been a long time for both of us to heal since the Great War."

"It has my body was injured and nearly smashed to bits. I had to go into hiding and slowly heal myself." Said Matthew.

"And I had to disguise myself as a different animal every few hundred years or so to stay hidden." Said Orgalorg.

"We have both suffered a great defeat, but that has allowed us to learn and grow stronger. The master is returning and soon he will be back at full power." Said Matthew.

"I've felt the master to. The kingdoms of this world are uneasy with one another and soon a war will breakout. The deaths and hate of the war will give the master energy and he will use it to reclaim what is his and be fully restored. Then the real battle will begin." Said Orgalorg.

"We will have a chance to reclaim our honor and have our revenge." Said Matthew.

The two evil beings broke out into evil laughter as they thought about getting their revenge.

Miles away at the Candy Kingdom, Bubblegum was working on some blueprints for a new giant robot that would serve as a new defense system for her kingdom and be a mobile fortress. The name of the new robot would be Prize Ball Guardian and it would be a powerful weapon against any enemies of the Candy Kingdom.

At the organization's evil lair, Crimson had given the Lich the book that was in the Citadel. The Lich grinned at the book as he rubbed a honey hand over it. He could hear the sounds of his minions coming from within the book. The three strongest beings in the book were the loudest and the Lich could feel their anticipation. He would let them out, but first he had to use the book's other power to contact a couple of old allies. The book started to glow and two viewing portals appeared before the Lich.

The first portal displayed a tall dark demonic looking being, with six horns, a green mouth full of white fangs, and he had a beard and eyebrows made out of living flames. The being went by the name Aku.

The second portal displayed a being with a very androgynous appearance. The second being had large lobster-like claws, pointed ears, black widow's peak hair, lime green eyes, a hooked nose and a long, curled beard. He had three long eyelashes on each eyelid, rosy pink cheeks and black lips, which were in a wide creepy smile. The creature wore a lady's red jacket and skirt with pink tulle at the collar and hemline, a black leather belt with a bronze buckle, and black, thigh-high, spike-heeled boots. The being used to have a name, but it was long forgotten by most and the few who knew it were afraid to utter it. The evil being just simply went by the name Him. The Lich knew Him's real name and he wasn't afraid to say, but he called the creature Him to simply not freak out any lesser beings or minions.

(Author's Note: Aku is from Samurai Jack and Him is from Power Puff Girls.)

The Lich looked at Aku and Him with a grin. It had been a long time sense he had seen either of them, but Aku and Him shared the Lich's dream of absolute destruction and the reshaping of the multiverse. During the Great War they had been nearly an unstoppable force,until the Lich's power was greatly reduced by the Cosmic Owl and Aku and Him had been banished to separate dimensions and locked away.

"Aku. Him." Greeted the Lich.

"Oh why isn't this a pleasant surprise! It's like a good old family reunion!" Said Him with a chuckle.

"Tell us Lich, can you free us from our prisons, so we may continue with our plan?" Said Aku.

"Not at this current moment with my current form and power, but soon I will be able to. We will finish what we started and we will bathe all of space and time, with the cosmic blood of those who stood in our way and anyone foolish enough to side with them!" Declared the Lich as his eyes glowed green with flames.

"Soon we shall be free once more to smite the multiverse in days long past." Said Aku as the flames of his beard and eyebrows rose up with his words.

"Will turn it all into HECK!" Said Him his voice rising and sounding more monstrous.

"We shall sail to a billion worlds. We shall sail until every light has been extinguished." Said the Lich.

The other two evil beings agreed and their images vanished. The Lich turned his attention back to the book. It was time to gather energy and focus on releasing the generals first followed by the minions and other monsters. Soon the universe would be facing a great evil, which was steadily growing stronger and more numerous by the day.

To be continued.
