With Ben and the others, Doc Brown was with Rex and Noah.

Rex asked, "So what exactly is going on with the time stream?"

"It is spiraling out of control and some people are seeing into other timelines," Doc Brown answered.

"Like when Marty says that he was supposed to marry someone named Jennifer Parker," Noah asked.

To this, Doc Brown nodded and answered, "Yes, that is correct, Noah."

Rex asked Alex, "How did you two meet?"

As Alex was telling the story about how she met Ben, Pete looked up at his older brother, John. John wasn't paying all that much attention but Pete was in thought. He was thinking about all of the times that they had been through. Pete was wondering what facing Nibiru and the evil army would entail. It would entail a big battle, that much was for sure. Suddenly, without explanation, Pete was having a flash about another timeline...

…

-Flashback: 'Super Pichu Brothers'-

It was a typical day in Chicago for a young Pichu with messy hair on the left side of his face. He was running the streets as usual, getting what was needed. His name was Jonathon "John" Patrick. Two years ago, John and his younger brother, Peter "Pete" Jonah had a bit of fight. John was now protecting uptown and thought that Pete was dead a month ago until he was proven wrong. Pete was alive and well, living in downtown, and had recently gotten badly injured. John gathered up supplies to help.

Eventually, the two brothers forgave the other but their relationship was still a bit shaky. Anyways, Pete was back on his feet but he was secretly investigating what had happened. John wanted to pretend that it didn't happen and move on. A cry for help broke John out of his thoughts. 'A guardian's job is never done,' John thought as he raced off to his work. When John arrived, he saw his own brother protecting a Pidgey from this strange white ball that looked like a ghost. Pidgey was a Tiny Bird Pokémon.

But the ghost John never saw before. Pete charged up his Discharge and fired it. The ghost was effected by it but it looked like it did no damage at all.

"Oh no you got to be kidding me," Pete yelled.

John wondered, "What is he facing?"

With that, John ran over, gaining speed and electricity. The ghost turned as he saw John running over.

"Two of you," the ghost said, surprised.

At that moment, John crashed into the ghost. The ghost felt that move as he got paralyzed.

Pete yelled, "John, I had him!"

"Sure didn't look like it," John replied, in the matter-of-faculty.

The ghost looked at the both of them as the Pidgey flew off, scared.

The ghost asked, "So there are two of you here?!"

John nodded and answered, "Yeah and you're gonna be sorry that you entered our turf, you jerk!"

Pete yelled, "John, you might wanna focus on that...this ghost is talking!"

The older Pichu brother rolled his eyes and said, "Details later, let's just kick his sorry butt."

The younger Pichu brother yelled, "Details later?! We need the details now! We have no idea on how to battle this guy!"

John started to yell, "Pete, when I want your opinion..." At this moment, the ghost fled and John more upset. "Darn it, look at what you did," John yelled, furious.

"Me," Pete yelled, getting mad.

John rolled his eyes as he ran off, mad. Pete yelled, just as mad. Sometimes he wished that John never found him, he was better off on his own. He hated always being in his older brother's shadow.

…

Pete was a bit mad about that, always being in John's shadow, like Luigi. John was obvious to that, there wasn't much Pete could do. Pete enjoyed being a Chosen One and the one that knew that he belonged on N. Sanity Isle. John wasn't, however. He was unsure that they were meant to be Chosen Ones and if they really should live on the island. John might've rarely shown his emotions during missions but outside of battle was a different story. John perked up and saw that Pete was deep in thought.

-Flashback: 'My Younger Brother'-

As Mario was walking down the path to head to Bowser's castle, he heard Polterpup's bark. He spun around and saw the ghost pup following him.

"Go away, Spettro." Mario hissed, still being his hot-headed self. Spettro whined sadly. Mario looked at him and saw that he was sitting down, giving Mario his puppy dog eyes. "Oh no, not the puppy dog pout..." He groaned.

"Gets to you too, huh?" A voice asked.

Mario looked up and saw Luigi coming towards him, looking ready for action...and anything.

Mario answered, "Yeah. Even though he's a ghost, he is kind of cute..."

Luigi chuckled as he stated, "Yeah but he's still a pain in the butt."

Spettro wagged his tail and stuck out his tongue, sitting at Luigi's feet. Mario and Luigi both laughed at this.

Mario looked at Luigi and asked, "So, are we going or not?"

Luigi nodded and answered, "We're going but let Spettro take the lead, he's a great tracker."

Spettro barked as he sniffed the ground and took the lead, letting the two Manfredi brothers follow behind him. Mario was still baffled by how Luigi was acting but he figured that things will fall into place shortly.

...

Anyways, eventually reached Bowser's castle and went inside. Not seeing any trace of anyone had the brothers worried.

"This is weird..." Mario stated.

Luigi replied, "Sure is..."

As they entered the library (which was needed to go to the throne room), they were ambushed.

Mario commented, "It's a trap!"

"How the Underwhere did they know we were coming?" Luigi asked, surprised.

Mario shrugged as he was about to activate his Firebrand. One of the Koopas hit him hard, knocking off his concentration. Luigi started to suck up the Boos with Spettro's help. Suddenly, Paraboo hit Luigi from behind hard enough that it knocked him into Mario. Spettro was about to help but the Boos took him. Spettro whined, scared of the Boos and worried for Luigi.

Mario groaned as he woke and started to say, "Oh man, we are so out of..." That's when he saw Luigi's left arm out its socket. No blood was coming out strangely. That's when Mario's eyes widened in fright. He looked at Luigi, who was still out and saw that he was in no pain. That's when it clicked. Luigi lost his left arm while he was gone. "Synch..." Mario finished, in shock.

Luigi woke up and saw Mario there. Before he could ask about Spettro, he saw that Mario was holding his arm.

Luigi gripped his left socket and stated, near tears, "I can explain."

Mario blurted out, "Darn it, you better! I haven't seen you in two years and when I do, I find out that not only you're a ghost hunter but you lost your left arm!"
