Two Days Before Roman Turns Himself In

"Just a little more…" Ienzo mumbled to himself as he was working on a teleporter. "A little more… perfect!" He said as he backed away, then pulled out the Gummi Phone. "Alright Even, it's hooked up on my end. How about yours?"

"I just about got it working on my end. Shall we test it?"

"Yes. Sending an item over to you now." Ienzo said, grabbing a Super Mushroom and tossing it in, where it disappeared.

"Did you just send me a Mushroom? Goodness, why does this have eyes?"

"This world is quite different than what we're used to. But it appears our teleporter is a success." Ienzo said as he hopped onto the teleporter and teleported over to Radiant Garden.

"Indeed." Even nodded, then Ienzo called up Sora.

"Yo, what's up?"

"We got the teleporter working. You think you can bring Team RWBY here? I think they'd get a kick out of this."

"Sweet! Heck, I can bring a few of their friends along too!"

"The more the merrier." Ienzo chuckled and then hung up.

"This should be most interesting…" Even mused.

BGM: Laughter and Merriment (Kingdom Hearts II)

"Whoa!" Ruby exclaimed as she stumbled forward. "Okay… get it together…" She told herself as she looked around, and was joined by the rest of her team, JNPR, Youmu, Umber, the Phantom Thieves, Pit, the Mario Bros, Peach, Daisy, the Galarians, Neo and even Bayo showed up.

"My my, this is quite impressive~" Bayonetta mused.

"I'll say." Pit chuckled.

"Welcome to our side of the universe!" Sora waved.

"Shite, lad… this is incredible!" Gloria said.

"Hey, how come Reimu and Marisa didn't want to come with?" Jaune asked.

"Eh, they weren't in the area…" Youmu shrugged. "I tend to visit more than those two for some reason."

"Maybe you just like Remnant?" Pyrrha guessed.

"Maybe."

"Welcome to Radiant Garden." A voice said as they turned to see Ansem the Wise approaching them. "I am Ansem the Wise… we have heard much about you and Remnant. It is an honor for us to finally meet. Here." Ansem turned his head to dig out some Sea Salt Ice Cream. "Here, a complimetary-…" He turned around and saw several blinking white outlines.

End BGM

"Yeeeeah, they're already gone." Sora said.

Ansem chuckled. "Well, I cannot say I blame them for visiting a new world."

BGM: Radiant Garden (Kingdom Hearts III: ReMind)

"Woooooow!" Yang's eyes sparkled. "This place is beautiful!"

"Oh man, I don't even know where to begin to look!" Ruby exclaimed.

"Come on, guys! We're goin' explorin' for a bit!" Gloria excitedly said and took off running with Hop behind her.

"New place… new exploration, what more can you ask for?" Umber chuckled.

Marnie let out a giggle. "Right?"

"Holy crap, look at those waterfalls!" Ann exclaimed. "It's gorgeous!"

"Weeeeell! I think I know where we should go on our next date!" Daisy said.

Luigi chuckled. "I was thinking the same thing."

"A picnic here sounds lovely." Peach said with Mario nodding in agreement.

"Alriiiiight, let's go see what we can find here!" Nora grinned as they all spread out right as Lea walked out with Sora.

"So, you're gonna tell 'em why you really brought them here, right?"

"Oh, let them enjoy their fun for a bit." Sora said. "They've fought hard opponents before, but they've never met what we had to deal with."


Later

End BGM

"Alright guys… you all faced a lot of hardships in your battles." Sora said. "And some of them were more personal than others." He added, glancing at Marnie who simply looked down while rubbing her metal arm. "However, things could be a whole lot worse."

"What do you mean?" Yang asked.

"Well, let's just say you guys probably got off easy." Sora said.

"Easy?" Weiss said in disbelief. "Uh, hello?" She pointed to her chest and then at Blake's face, then at Marnie's arm. "How do you call that easy? And let's not forget Ruby's problem with Dark Ruby…"

Sora sweatdropped. "I did say probably." He said. "Anyway, we faced Organization XIII and… to put it bluntly, they sucked."

"Hard?" Yang asked.

BGM: Cavern of Remembrance (Kingdom Hearts III: ReMind)

"Oh yeah, wouldn't even leave us alone for some peace and quiet." Sora shook his head, remembering how it went for him in the Mark of Mastery exam that he and RIku took. "Organization XIII was quite the adversary, for better or for worse."

"Which is why we thought it'd be best if you guys came over and experienced the Organization themselves." Lea said.

"What, did you revive them?" Jaune asked.

"As data. Basically, simulation fights." Even explained.

"Oooh! I wanna see how this data works out one of these days." Futaba said.

"We have these fights set up, mostly for combat training." Ienzo said. "There are three modes to this. Standard, Proud and Critical."

"Actually, we changed Critical to something else." Even said.

"Oh?" Ienzo said as he looked into it. "…ReMind? Something tells me this is the new "Critical" mode."

"Indeed." Even nodded.

"Okay, so what I'm getting out of this is basically… Easy, Hard and Extremely hard." Pyrrha said.

"Set me up on this Critically Remind… whatever it is! I like a challenge." Yang smirked.

Sora chuckled a bit. "Well, they're quite tough. Even on Standard mode, they're no slouch."

"Eh, how bad can it be?" Pit shrugged.

"So, who would like to go first?" Even asked.

"I'll give it a whirl! Hit me up on that Proud mode!" Ruby requested and with a nod, they set her up. "Let's see… there's thirteen emblems! Interesting." She mused and spotted a scythe. "Ooooh! I want to try the one with the scythe!" She said, pressing it and then she turned around… only to find herself getting digitized. "Aaaaaack!"

"Ruby!" Yang exclaimed as they tried to get her out of it.

"She's fine, don't worry about it." Even said.

End BGM


In the digital world

"Wah!" Ruby yelped, finding herself in a flowery field. "Hello? Guuuuys?" She called out. "Where is everyone?"

"Hmm… you're definitely new." A voice spoke up as Ruby turned her head as she saw someone appearing before her. Aside from the Organization cloak, he had pink hair and was wielding a scythe… and he had yellow eyes.

"Who are you?" Ruby asked.

"I am Marluxia." He said, pulling out a rose. "And I see you are a new face. Who are you?"

"Uh, Ruby Rose…" She responded. I don't know what's weirder… the yellow eyes or the fact he has pink hair!

"Pleasure to meet you." Marluxia got in a battle stance. "Now… shall we then?"

Ruby got in her stance as well. "Yeah, let's do this!"

BGM: Lord of the Castle (Kingdom Hearts III: ReMind)

The Graceful Assassin - Data Marluxia

Ruby twirled her scythe around and proceeded to shoot at Marluxia, but he would gracefully block with his scythe and then disappeared, reappearing next to Ruby and slashing her but she would block as the two swung their scythes, both of them clashing as Ruby would then blast him away with her Rose Palm.

Marluxia smirked, quickly approaching Ruby and slashing her and leaving a trail of petals behind as Ruby used her semblance to avoid him while also leaving a trail of petals lyng around. Marluxia let out a chuckle, snapping his fingers as vines shot out of the ground and grabbed a hold of Ruby.

"Nnngh! What the…?!" Ruby wondered as Marluxia floated up and swung his scythe down, buzz sawing his way to Ruby and cut through her. "Agh!" She yelped as she was knocked back, pulling out her boomerang and throwing it at Marluxia, but he swung his scythe to deflect it as Ruby used her semblance to get around Marluxia and unleashing a Rose Tornado to send him flying into the air as she went up and slashed him down, sending Marluxia to the ground.

"Hmph." Marluxia smirked as Ruby landed on the ground. "Your heart shall be judged!"

"My what?!" She said as she blocked an attack from Marluxia, barely sliding back as Marluxia slashed at her repeatedly but she would do the same, both of them clashing their weapons against each other until both of them parried at once and knocked their scythes out of their hands.

They both leapt into the air and snagged each other's weapons with Ruby holding Marluxia's and the latter holding Crescent Rose. "This scythe doesn't seem natural…"

"It's also a high impact sniper rifle."

"A gun scythe? Fascinating." Marluxia smirked, flipping the scythe around and pulling the trigger, shooting at Ruby where she quickly ran around while the former was getting used to the recoil as Ruby gracefully twirled the scythe around where rose petals flew out as she used her Rose Palm to shoot the rose petals at Marluxia but he gracefully slashed through the petals, and then he floated up in the air with Crescent Rose swinging back behind him.

What is he up to? Ruby thought to herself and then Marluxia disappeared, reappearing behind Ruby.

"I am the better scythe wielder."

"Huh?!" Ruby yelped in surprise as an aura wrapped around her as she saw a number above her, where it was the number fifteen… but it slowly dropped to fourteen. "Ack!" She yelped, slowly panicking as she didn't even know what it meant but the thought of it counting down above her made her panic as she swiftly used her semblance to slash at Marluxia, only he calmly blocked with Crescent Rose as the two clashed again, with the number at eight.

Come ongo away! Ruby hoped as they kept slashing but then Ruby parried her own scythe and then found an opening, slashing away at Marluxia and then slashed upward to disarm him as she grabbed her own scythe right as the Doom Counter disappeared right at five. Phew

Ruby then smirked, realizing she was holding two scythes as she rushed ahead at Marluxia, where he snapped his fingers as dark portals opened up underneath her as vines shot out, Ruby would swiftly cut through these as she used her semblance to use another tornado to send him up in the air as she went up and slashed him with both scythes, both of them landing on the ground.

"Settle down!" Marluxia exclaimed, as suddenly darkness surrounded the two as a massive figure rose from the ground as Ruby looked up to see a gigantic shadowy skull, where darkness also hit her in the process.

"Aaaagh!" She cried as Marluxia leapt forward and grabbed his own scythe, yanking it from her and slashing her away. "Nnnngh!" She grunted, her aura flickering a bit while wincing.

"The end is nigh." Marluxia smirked and then disappeared again, reappearing behind Ruby. "There is a bake sale going on." He whispered in her ear and then ninety nine appeared above her head.

"Phew, glad it's ninety-" She paled, noticing it go down faster than she could blink as it was already at eighty eight. "OH CRAP!" She panicked as she lunged at Marluxia, the two slashing at each other with him calmly blocking and smirking at Ruby entering panic mode as she desperately swung at Marluxia.

She didn't know what this Doom Counter meant and didn't even want to know how it would end if it reached zero. She desperately slashed at Marluxia but he would disarm her and then held her with vines as he would buzzsaw through her again, striking her as she was knocked away with her aura shattering.

"Rrrgh… you little…!" Ruby would get back up, grabbing her scythe and rushing toward Marluxia as she swung her scythe right as the Doom Counter reached zero as it lit up and then fired a large shadowy bolt of lightning that struck her.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAGH!" She screamed as she fell on her back, unconscious… and then everything faded to white.

End BGM

"…Uby…? Ruby!"

"Aaaah!" Ruby yelped, sitting up and panting, seeming in to be in a cold sweat as she looked around to her team, Pit, the Mario Bros and Gloria checking on her. "What the… what the heck… what am I?!"

"Back in Radiant Garden." Blake said. "You took quite the beating."

"I did?" Ruby wondered and then remembered what happened. "…Oh crud. Do I have to do that again?"

"No, you don't have to." Sora said. "Although you did a heck of a good job fighting him. I'm impressed!" He grinned.

"Thanks… could've gone better." Ruby rubbed her head as she spotted a white board as she saw Lea writing something down. "Uh… what are you doing?"

"Oh, nothing important." Lea said, moving away from the board.

Organization XIII - I

Friends

"Keeping score." Blake sweatdropped.

"Alright, who's next?" Sora asked.

"I'll give it a shot." Yang said, cracking her knuckles. "I'm going to make my baby sister proud!" She said as she looked at the difficulty, immediately hitting ReMind and then selecting her opponent. "Alright, in I go!" She said as she felt herself getting digitized.

"If that was Proud mode, I'd hate to see ReMind mode." Youmu said. "You said it was originally Critical?"

"Yes." Ienzo nodded.

"Welp, either Yang is really really brave or… really really dumb."

"I would interject but considering what happened with Ruby…" Ren spoke up as they slowly nodded.


Digital World

Yang found herself in a room, being none other than Addled Impasse as she walked ahead, looking out the window and looked up. "…Is that… a heart shaped moon?" She wondered.

"Technically speaking, that is Kingdom Hearts."

Yang turned around, seeing Data Saix approaching her. "Isa?"

"In here, I am called Saix." He said, taking out his weapon.

"So I'm fighting you, eh?" Yang smirked, pumping her gauntlets. "Well alright then, bring it on!"

Saix let out a simple "hmph". "Let's make this short and sweet."

BGM: The 13th Dilemma - Saix Version (Kingdom Hearts III: ReMind)

The Luna Diviner - Data Saix

"I call upon the moon's pale light!" Saix said as he floated up in the air.

"Heh?"

"Moon, shine down!" He yelled as an aura surrounded him intensely as he landed on the ground with four Claymores surrounding him as he lunged over to Yang, swinging his weapon down as Yang jumped back but shockwaves went all around her as they slammed into the ground.

"Whoa!" Yang exclaimed as she pumped her gauntlets and started shooting at him, but the bullets would be deflected from his makeshift shield as he jumped up and threw one down at Yang, forcing her to roll out of the way but the shockwave was enough to knock her into the window. "Mmmph!" She grunted as she looked at the claymore, getting an idea as she leapt forward and grabbed a hold of it, picking it up with a smirk as she ran ahead and swung the weapon at Saix, but she clumsily did so which made Saix block her without much effort as he swung his weapon and sent her sliding.

"No escape!" He said, immediately rushing ahead and pounding on the ground with his weapon to make several shockwaves as Yang tried to jump into the air, shooting away at him but he would block these and threw a weapon at Yang, smacking her as she was sent flying toward a wall.

"Nnngh!" She grunted and then glared at him as her eyes went red and her hair caught on fire. "HADOKEN!" She yelled, but Saix had leapt into the air and swung his weapon as Yang tried to catch it but she was knocked back. "Rrrgh…" Yang grunted as she charged at him, where he would throw his weapon at her but she rolled out of the way and when she got closer…

"SHORYUKEN!" She yelled, but Saix had blocked this in time as Yang let out a gasp as Saix grabbed her by the ankle and threw her down and viciously swung at her, hitting her and sending her through the glass as the window broke as she fell into the digital abyss below.

End BGM

"Gah!" Yang yelped, sitting up and panting as she was back with the others. "What the HELL?!" She yelled.

"Honestly, you lasted longer than I thought you would." Lea said as Yang looked over at Isa who was calmly leaning against the wall.

"Remind me… to never piss you off…" Yang said, trying to control her breathing while Gloria and Bede looked at him warily and Hop backing away from him with a mortified expression.

"Okay, let's see here… that's two to nothin'." Lea said, adding another tally mark to the Organization.

"I'll give it a shot next." Pit said, ready to go swinging as he selected his opponent while toning it down to Proud Mode as he found himself getting digitized. "I have to say, this is very WEEEEE-"


Digital World

"-EEIRD!" Pit finished and then looked around. "Huh, neat little arena." He said, noting that he was in the Hall of Empty Melodies. "Where am I, though?" He wondered to himself, unaware of someone aiming their weapon right at him.

Pit let out a small gasp, turning around and narrowly dodging a bullet. "Show yourself!"

"Well well… looks like the boy got his wings." A voice said as Pit saw his opponent from a ledge. "I have to say, Sora… you look rather younger than usual."

"The name's Pit… servant of the Goddess of Light herself!" Pit declared. "And who are you?"

"Xigbar, but that's enough for introductions."

"I couldn't agree more." Pit said, readying his Palutena Bow. "In the name of Lady Palutena, I will defeat you in battle!"

"Heh… as if." Xigbar said, jumping down and landing on the ground with a smirk.

BGM: The 13th Dilemma - Xigbar Version (Kingdom Hearts III: ReMind)

The Freeshooter - Data Xigbar

Xigbar would proceed to shoot at Pit as he would do the same with his arrows, both of them hitting each other as the latter would rush over and shoot at him, but Xigbar would roll around and shoot him back, both of them circling around each other as arrow and bullets were flying in all directions as Pit and Xigbar then lunged at each other, but the latter disappeared right before Pit could hit him. "Huh?"

Xigbar appeared near a corner, smirking as he was upside down and shot at him as Pit turned around and blocked the attacks. "Really? You're gonna be fighting upside down?"

"Why not?"

"Claude does it better!" Pit said as he charged at him as Xigbar's arms appeared next to him and shot him. "Nnngh!"

"It looks like he's able to manipulate space around him." Palutena smiled.

"You got any tips?"

"Well, I'm not sure if sending Palkia to the digital world would be a good idea…"

"Yeah… probably not a good idea!"

"Just keep your head high and fight him. Make sure he doesn't whittle you down because that seems to be what he's doing."

"Understood!" Pit rushed ahead as Xigbar shot at him but he dodged out of the way as Xigbar teleported away and fired several shots at him where Pit had the idea to reflect it back at him with his Guardian Orbitars, sending it back and stunning him. "Aha!" He said as he switched to Wolf Claws as he charged ahead and slashed through him, quickly slashing at him repeatedly as he swung up to knock him up into the air and then continued to slash him before slashing him down.

Xigbar recovered and landed on his feet. "Here it comes!" He said, firing a bullet into the air as it suddenly rained down a wall of dark arrows.

"Careful, Pit! Something about those dark arrows rub me the wrong way…"

"Same here." Pit said as he shot at Xigbar, but he disappeared and reappeared behind Pit but he turned around and counter attacked as the wall of arrows got closer as Pit would kick him away and noticed they were dangerously close.

Uh ohPit thought as he found an opening as he took a deep breath and jumped through the opening, barely getting nicked by a dark arrow as he landed on the ground and shot an arrow at Xigbar.

"New backdrop!" Xigbar said as the arena changed into a small circle. "Let's see how you dance!" He said as he spun around and started shooting where Pit would jump over the bullets and struck him with a few arrows until Xigbar aimed up and making it start raining bullets everywhere, forcing Pit to run around to avoid getting into a pincushion. He would then reach into his pocket and pulled out an X Bomb.

"Here ya go!" He said, throwing it as it hit Xigbar in the face where it lit up and exploded as he was knocked back, then Pit fired a Mega Laser once the bullet rain ended, but then once the arena changed again, he fired another bullet in the sky as dark arrows shot down in the middle and gradually started spreading out in a ring.

"That's not good!"

"I can do this…" Pit said as he pulled out the Ore Club and gave it a good swing, throwing a tornado at him as Xigbar avoided it while the dark arrows grew larger, forcing Pit to go between the arrows in a small gap as Xigbar appeared behind him and shot him in the back but Pit turned around and smacked him with the Ore Club, and then he switched to the Ancient Staff, aiming at Xigbar and firing at his chest, knocking him back but then Xigbar disappeared.

Pit would turn around, switching to the Compact Arm and swinging at him, but he caught it, yanked it away from it, tossing it behind him and then kicked him away. "Heh, game over, angel." Xigbar smirked.

Beep.

Beep.

Beep.

"Hmm?" Xigbar looked down, noticing a Smart Bomb was planted on his chest, flashing back to when he yanked it, Pit used his other hand to throw a Smart Bomb that stuck to his chest. "Oh, son of a-"

It exploded as Pit switched back to his Palutena Bow and slashed through him. "Rrrrgh! So… this is your power…" He mumbled as the whole area faded to white.

End BGM

"VICTORY!" Pit exclaimed, flashing the peace sign with a goofy grin as Ruby happily glomped him with a smile.

"That's definitely quite the arsenal. Heh… not bad!" Lea said, marking a tally for the others.

Organization XIII - II

Friends - I

"Not bad!" Sora smiled, high fiving Pit.

"Ah, it wasn't too bad." Pit said, rubbing his upper lip with a chuckle.

"So, who's next?" Ienzo asked.

"I'll give it a shot next." Marnie said as she walked forward.

"Woo! Representing Galar!" Hop exclaimed.

"Nah, I'm representing the Koopa Troop." Marnie said.

"Oh…" Hop slumped.

Marnie gave him a cheeky smirk. "Aaaand maybe Galar too~" She said.

"Saw that coming." Gloria snickered as Bede let out a chuckle.

"Hey, Marnie." Pit spoke up as the punk turned around, only to catch Tiger Claws in her hand.

"Huh?"

"Well, you do tend to fight with Claws so, hey, might as well use this as a substitute since your old ones broke." Pit said, smiling.

Marnie chuckled, equipping them in her hands. "Thanks, angel dork." She said, smiling back at him as she selected her opponent and looked at the difficulty, about to touch ReMind but remembered what happened with Yang, so she stuck with Proud Mode and felt herself getting digitized in the data world.

"Mmm… definitely not something I'm used to." Marnie said as she walked around, finding herself in the Grand Hall of Hollow Bastion. She curiously looked at the prisoners that once held the Princesses of Heart before she turned toward the stairs and cautiously climbed the stairs before stopping.

"Hmm…" She reached for her Pokeballs and called out her Pokemon. "I might need your help on this one." She said and then knelt down, forming them into a huddle and whispering to them, and with a nod, Marnie hugged them and then walked up the stairs, seeing a giant heart in the wall before turning her head to overlook the room.

"Beautiful, isn't it?" A voice spoke up as Marnie turned her head to see Dark Riku casually sitting on a pipe.

"You're… that Riku guy, aren't you?" Marnie asked.

"Heh, indeed I am." Dark Riku smirked. "I'm not sure who you are, but you came to the wrong place." He said as he hopped down, aiming his weapon at her. "You don't look like you can fight."

"That's where you're wrong." Marnie said, getting in her battle stance and summoning the Tiger Claws.

"Heh, well, consider this your final fight." Dark Riku smirked.

I don't know why, but I feel like I need to say something along the lines of "There's no way you're taking Gloria's heart" or something… gah, focus! Marnie thought. "Bring it."

BGM: Forze Del Male (Kingdom Hearts III: ReMind)

Trying Too Hard - Dark Riku

Dark Riku zipped toward Marnie, startling her. He's fast! She thought, as Dark Riku swung Soul Eater down but Marnie barely blocked in time and then countered, quickly slashing him at the chest as she slashed at him repeatedly, but he blocked and countered, sending Marnie sliding.

Dark Riku conjured up a dark fireball and threw a Dark Firaga at her, but she rolled out of the way as she conjured up Din's Fire and unleashed a stream of fire at him, but he would avoid this as she charged at him, but Dark Riku snapped his fingers as a mine popped up in front of her and exploded on impact, sending her up into the air as Dark Riku jumped up and slashed her down, where she slammed onto the ground on her back as he landed right on top of her.

"Nnngh!" She grunted as he pointed his weapon at her.

"This battle's already over!" He smirked, raising it up in the air.

"No… it's just getting started. NOW!" She yelled as Morpeko launched off of the pipe and slammed into him with Aura Wheel, making him stumbled as Marnie kicked him off of her.

"Peck peck!" Morpeko cried as Dark Riku chuckled.

"Like a little rodent will do you any good!" He said, unleashing a Dark Firaga on him but then Grimmsnarl jumped in and took the attack. "What?!" He exclaimed as Grimmsnarl grabbed him and threw him to the wall and then used Darkest Lariat to knock him off the ledge where Dark Riku landed on the ground and got Thunder Punched and Poison Jabbed by both her Scrafty and Toxicroak.

"Mrow!" Liepard cried, having a wicked grin on her face after having used Nasty Plot, and then let out several sassy meows to anger Dark Riku.

"It's over!" He yelled, unleashing Dark Aura on the Liepard but she leapt away into the shadows as Marnie would teleport in and charged up a shot with her metal arm before blasting out a large ball of electricity and hit Dark Riku. He let out a growl. "ONE MORE!" He yelled, unleashing Dark Aura… or at least, he tried to. "What?!"

Thank you, Torment. Marnie thought, teleporting toward him and slashing him repeatedly with the Tiger Claws as Dark Riku glared at Marnie and threw a Dark Firaga but she swiftly used Nayru's Love to reflect it back as he let out a yelp and tried it again, but it didn't work as he let out a frustrated yell and stomped on the ground as a pool of darkness went to Marnie as claws tried to impale her but she jumped away and put her hand on the ground as a plume of fire raised up from the ground and struck Dark RIku, sending him up in the air.

"Oh yeah?!" Dark Riku smirked as he tried to send another pool of darkness toward Marnie but it didn't work out. "What is going on?!" He yelled as Marnie used Farore's Wind to get close to him and then slashed him away.

"Buddy, you're just trying too hard." Marnie said.

"SHUT UP!" He yelled as he unleashed Helm Splitter on her but Marnie would block and parry the attack, sending the Soul Eater up in the air as her Grimmsarl grabbed his arms from behind and held him there. "Rrrgh!" He gruted as he set a pool of darkness to him and impaled the Grimmsnarl, but he held on while Marnie had floated up and kicked the sword toward him as it had impaled him in the chest.

"AAAAAAAAAGH!" He cried as everything faded to white.

End BGM

"And that's how you do it." Marnie said, dusting her hands as Neo happily hugged her, as did the Galarians and Luigi. "Aww, guys…" She smiled, hugging them back and then proceeded to heal up her Pokemon as needed while also handing Morpeko a little treat.

"Peck!" Morpeko happily smiled.

"Alright, my turn~!" Nora grinned. "I'm gonna break some legs here~!" She said as she selected her fight… and then went for ReMind mode and then got herself digitized.

"Wait, did she just select ReMind?" Jaune sweatdropped.

"Oh dear…" Pyrrha whispered.

"Now now, have some faith in Nora." Ren said, although even he looked a bit nervous.


In the Data world

Nora found herself on a mountain that overlooked the Keyblade Graveyard. "Ooooh! Where am I?" Nora wondered.

"This would be your tomb." A voice said as Nora tured to see Data Larxene approaching her.

"My tomb? No way, sister… this is the place where I break those legs of yours!" Nora said.

"Hahahaha! Oh, that's a laugh… we'll see about that after I break you!" She exclaimed, suddenly zipping around Nora and then slashing her a few times before hitting her with a bolt of lightning. "Heh, you don't look like much."

"Did you… did you just hit me with electricity…" Nora said as she slowly rose.

"Yeah? What of it?" Larxene smirked as Nora faced Larxene, flashing a smirk as electricity shot out of the corners of her eyes.

"Oh, this is gonna be fun!"

BGM: Lightning Battle - Kid Icarus: Uprising (GaMetal)

The Savage Nymph - Data Larxene

Larxene and Nora both charged at each other, enveloping their whole bodies into electricity and zipping at each other and slamming into each other as they zipped around the battlefield as their respective lightning bolts slammed into each other repeatedly until they both landed on the ground as Larxene threw her knives at Nora, but she blocked with her hammer as she would throw down lightning bolts at Larxene.

"Mmph!" Larxene grunted as the two zipped toward each other, hitting each other again as they pushed each other until Nora swung her hammer to knock Larxene out of her lightning as Larxene landed on the ground and called upon a few clones as they rushed at Nora.

Clones? Niiiice! Nora thought as she zipped up into the air and slammed into the ground, making an electric shockwave that knocked the Larxenes away as the real one got back up while the others disappeared, as Larxene zipped over and slashed at Nora repeatedly, quickly slashing at her stomach and chest before kicking her away.

Nora backflipped right after as she formed an electric javelin and threw it at Larxene, but she zipped away as the two aimed their hands up in the air as massive lightning bolts rained from the sky as the two lunged toward each other, zipping around while the lightning bolts hit each other, both of them slamming into each other as they both looked at each other in the eyes before Larxene kicked her away and threw knives at her but Nora would deflect them with her hammer as she switched it its grenade launcher form as she shot a few grenades, hitting Larxene and sending her away.

Larxene let out a growl as she and a few other clones surrounded Nora in an electric ring as they all charged at her and struck her, but then Nora grabbed a Larxene clone by the arm and swung her around, smacking her into the real Larxene. "Ooof!" Larxene grunted as Nora jumped over to Larxene and hammered her into the ground, and then formed into a lightning bolt and struck Larxene into the gut.

"FOOOOORE!" Nora yelled, swinging her hammer at a dazed Larxene as she was launched off the cliff as she would proceed to shoot a few grenades to finish her off in an electrical firework explosion, then everything faded to white shortly afterward.

End BGM

"Woo! Bring me my next challenger! I want to fight another one!" Nora exclaimed. "Come on, Sora, hook me up with another fighter!"

"Now now, let's not get stuck on a power high." Ren said, dragging her away.

"Aww!"

"So let's see…" Lea mused. "Another point for them…"

Organization XIII - II

Friends - III

"So… were you always like that?" Marnie asked Riku.

Riku let out a sigh. "Unfortunately, I was. That was definitely me in the past."

"There there." Marnie patted him on the back. "You've definitely grown over the past few yea-… wait, what do you mean that was you in the past?"

"It's… complicated." Riku said.

"…I'll take your word for it."

"I suppose I'll give it a whirl." Bayo said as she selected her opponent, and also kept it on the ReMind difficulty, then getting herself transported to the data world where she would find herself in the Sanctum of Time.

"Oh?" Bayonetta mused. "Fancy place they got here…"

"What even are you?" A voice spke up as Bayonetta turned to see Data Young Xehanort appearing before her. "Guns on your hands and your feet? Truly, fashion has gone off the rails…"

"Oh me oh my, it appears I'm facing a child." Bayonetta mused before chuckling. "Oh well, perhaps I can toy with you for a bit~"

Young Xehanort summoned his Keyblade, chuckling. "We shall see about that. And for the record, I'm no child."

"Oh? Well, let's see if your bite is worse than your bark."

BGM: L'Impeto Oscuro (Kingdom Hearts III: ReMind)

Bayo's Sub - Data Young Xehanort

Young Xehanort teleported over to Bayonetta, slashing her viciously but she casually and so gracefully backflipped to avoid the attack as she roundhouse kicked Young Xehanort away as he recovered and summoned icicles as he launched them toward Bayonetta, but she would gracefully ballerina dance around the ice as she walked over to him.

Young Xehanort turned his Keyblade into a whip and proceeded to throw it at her, but Bayonetta caught it with her hand and yanked it toward her as Young Xehanort went flying as she prepared to kick him in the face to send him away, then she threw the whip to the side.

"Rrrgh…" He growled, pulling out two etheral blades and combined them together as he ran over, slashing at viciously but she gracefully dodged them all and then proceeded to shoot him in the face. "Ungh!" He grunted as Bayonetta proceeded to flip kick him and then thrusted her foot down as Madama Butterfly's heel came down and crushed him.

Data Young Xehanort got back up, quickly rushing over and grabbing his whip and tried to flick his wrist, but Bayonetta casually rolled out of the way and delivered a solid punch courtesy of Madama Butterfly socking him in the face to send him flying.

"Time stop!" He exclaimed, trapping her in a time loop. "Time is a cruel prison." He said as he rushed toward her, finally having the chance to strike her… but the moment he hit her, suddenly she turned into bats and moved away. "What?!" He said as he turned around as Bayo reformed.

End BGM

"How curious." Bayonetta smirked as she did a casual dance in front of him. "Let's dance, boy~"

BGM: Mysterious Destiny (Bayonetta)

Young Xehanort lunged at her, slashing her with his Keyblade but she would grab the Keyblade by her hands and yanked it away, tossing it behind him as she elegantly proceeded to kick him between the legs. "Mmmph!" He grunted as Bayonetta round house kicked him to send him sliding, and then shot him up in the shoulders for good measure.

"Rrrgh! What… what are you…!" He grunted, having a hint of fear in his voice.

"Me? I'm just an ordinary witch… and one should never fuck with a witch~" She smirked. "Avavago!" She said while dancing as her hair came alive and proceeded to transform into Gomorrah to snack on the poor guy until he swallowed him up, letting a loud elephant roar before spitting him out as Bayonetta approached the sprawled out Young Xehanort as he tried to crawl away but Bayonetta kicked him to make him sprawl out on his back and firmly planted her heel on his crotch.

"Hmhmhmhm~" Bayonetta aimed her gun at Young Xehanort. "Looks like your luck has ran out." She said, and then pulled the trigger… which was enough to have everything fade to white.

End BGM

"And that… is how it is done." Bayonetta smiled, planting a lollipop in her mouth as Akira gave her the thumbs up, the other male Phantom Thieves looked at Bayo as if she lost her mind while the male Wielders, Isa, Even, Ienzo and Ansem the Wise included, took a step back from the Umbra Witch.

"Oookaaaay…" Sora shuddered. "Any… anyone else?" He asked.

"Heh, I'll give it a try." Akira said as he walked forward with Bayo giving him a loving headpat as he selected his opponent and kept it on ReMind where he found himself digitizing all the way to… the Keyblade Graveyard.

"Hmm… interesting…" Akira mused as he walked ahead, feeling the cheers of his fellow Phantom Thieves (and honorary Phantom Thief known as Yang) as he kept walking, staring at the many Keyblades that he walked past until he stopped at a crossroad, and then he saw someone surfing on a wave of Keyblades as he hopped off and landed in front of him.

"Sup?"

"I take it you're my opponent." Akira said.

"Yup." He summoned his Keyblade. "Name's Vanitas… and it'll be the last name you'll ever hear out of your pathetic existence."

"Ah, an edgelord, I presume?" Akira smirked, going into his Phantom Thief attire.

"Cute outfit."

Joker smirked, pulling out his blade before taking off his mask. "PERSONA!"

BGM: Enter the Darkness (Kingdom Hearts III)

Void Geared - Data Vanitas

Vanitas unleashed a Dark Thundaga attack, but Joker would roll away as he proceeded to shoot at him. Vanitas would avoid this as he charged at Joker and slashed him a few times but Joker would block with his dagger as the two would swing their weapons at each other, both of them getting a few hits in as Joker would jump back and throw down an Eigaon at him, but Vanitas would deflect it… and then Joker ran ahead and slashed him in the gut.

"Mmph!" Vanitas grunted, unleashing a point blank Dark Firaga at him to knock Joker back and then slashed him up into the air, and then Vanitas warped over to him and slashed him down, where Joker would land on his back but would roll as well and landed on his feet, then the two charged at each other as Joker slashing at him.

"Too slow!" Vanitas taunted, using Dark Splicer on him, slashing him toward some Keyblades and then hitting him with a Dark Thundaga. Joker got up, shaking it off as he picked up a Keyblade and then threw it at Vanitas, and threw a few more at him.

"Heh! Like this will do you any good!" He tauted, casually deflecting the Keyblades as he was then hit with an Eiagon the moment he deflected a Keyblade away. "Rrgh!" He grunted as Joker charged at him ad slashed at him a few times, throwing out his gun and shooting him as well.

"Sukunda!" Joker exclaimed, hitting him with it as he would then sweep kick Vanitas before shooting hi up, as Vanitas backflipped right after as he charged ahead where he noticed he wasn't as fast as before.

"You slowed me down… impressive!" He then disappeared and reappeared behind Joker. "But not impressive enough!" He said as Joker turned around and slashed him, but Vanitas warped and slashed him up into the air and then warped up to him, but this time Joker was prepared and then used Tetrakahrn to block him, sending Vanitas back.

Joker rushed toward him after he landed, slashing him but Vanitas grabbed a hold of him and then knee'd him in the gut and threw him to the ground, using a point blank Dark Firaga as well. Joker got up and slashed him, but Vanitas grabbed a hold of him again. "Did you really think that would work twi-"

Suddenly, Joker flipped over him and sat on his shoulders, putting his hands on his mask. "What the-…?!"

"Show me your true form!" He said and pulled it off, then launched off with the helmet, turning around and aiming his gun at him, only for him to look at him in surprise as he saw Sora's face underneath the helmet. "What?!"


Outside

"WHAT THE FOCK?!" Gloria yelled as they all looked to Sora.

"Well, don't look at me, I don't get it either!" Sora shrugged.

"Come on, Joker! Kick evil Sora's butt!" Ann cheered. "You got this!"

"You got this! Kick that bastard's ass to the effing ground!" Ryuji exclaimed.


Inside

"Take a picture, it'll last longer." Vanitas taunted.

Joker growled. "Satanael!" He yelled, summoning Satanael and used Heat Riser on himself, and then shooting him with Riot Gun but Vanitas warped away and called upon some Keyblades as he got on them and rode around, firing Dark Firagas at him but Joker would avoid these as he attempted to hit him with Maeigaon, but it would the Keyblades instead as he turned to Joker and attempted to ram him only for Joker to get out of the way… only for Vanitas to see this coming as he threw a Keyblade at his legs the moment he dodged as he fell on his stomach and then Vanitas rammed into him.

"Heh, that all you got?" Vanitas smirked, hopping off and landing in front of Joker who slowly rose, staggering a bit as he attempted to use Cosmic Flare on him. "Too slow!" He said and then whacked him behind the head with Void Gear to knock him out.

End BGM

"Aw dude! I thought you had him!" Ryuji said once Akira got up, dusting himself off.

"He's truly something else." Akira admitted. "Though I imagine the next time I face him, I bring you guys along."

"Duh, that's what you should've done in the first place…" Makoto mumbled.

"An A for effort though." Bayo said, then glancing over at Lea adding to the white board.

Organization XIII - III

Friends - IV

"How about the four of us have a turn?" Daisy suggested as Luigi, Mario and Peach nodded as Daisy selected Proud Mode and then selected the fight in question as all four of them were digitized and they would find themselves at Havoc's Divide at The Castle That Never Was.

"Wow, it's pretty up close!" Peach said, staring at Kingdom Hearts in front of them.

"Mmm, it feels unnatural, though." Mario said, folding his arms.

"Yeah, you're definitely right." Luigi nodded as Daisy shifted her eyes to the side.

"…And you are?" Daisy turned around as did the others, staring at Data Luxord in front of them.

"My name is Luxord. A pleasure to make your acquaintance." He said, giving them a polite bow. "A question for you all. Who would you say is the best card player out of you four?"

"This guy." Daisy pointed to Luigi.

"Him." Mario pointed to his bro.

"Right here." Peach also pointed to him.

"Wha?! Oh sure, throw me under the bus…" He sweatdropped.

"Fascinating, and what makes you sure he's the best out of the bunch?"

"It's simple. My man owns a casino. He's the best at poker!" Daisy said, causing Luigi to blush.


Outside

"He owns WHAT?!" Ruby said in surprise.

"What, you didn't know?" Marnie asked. "He told me and Neo, so we just assumed you guys knew."

"I knew about it too!" Futaba raised her hand up.

"Ah, so did we." Ann agreed with the rest of the thieves.

"As did I." Bayo nodded.

"Aheheh… I did too." Pit said.

"And you didn't even tell us?!" Gloria looked at Marnie.

"I did. You guys were busy making dinner that one night, I was kinda drowned out with all those cooking utensils."

"Ooooh, that's right…" Hop sweatdropped.

"I heard, I just didn't care all that much. So he has a casino. Big deal." Bede shrugged.

Marnie sighed, rubbing her head. "What am I gonna do with you knuckleheads?" She rolled her eyes while Neo let out a giggle.


Inside

Luxord chuckled. "That's all I needed to hear." He said, snapping his fingers as Mario and the princesses suddenly glowed as they were turned into cards.

"HUH?!" Luigi yelled in surprise as they became part of Luxord's deck, including his Pokemon and Power Ups as well.

"The rules are simple. The first one to run out of time is the loser."

Luigi clenched his fists, closing his eyes before opening them, giving off a determined face that nearly screamed "Death Stare". "Alright, let's-a play."

BGM: The 13th Struggle - Data Luxord (Kingdom Hearts III: ReMind)

Gambler of Fate - Data Luxord

Luigi's hands crackled with electricity as Luxord warped over to Luigi and threw cards at him, but Luigi would jump over those and pulled out his hammer, slamming it onto Luxord but he jumped back and smirked, pulling out a few cards and then surrounded Luigi with said cards.

Luigi turned his head, noticing they contained Power Ups consisting of a Tanooki Leaf, Fire Flower, Ice Flower and even a Hammer Bros suit. Luigi planted his hands on the ground, activating his Thunder Hand and hit all four, where the cards had disappeared and reappeared in his hand.

"Not bad." Luxord smirked as he pulled out two cards and started slashing him with the cards but Luigi would block with his hammer and then counter attacked as he pulled out the Fire Flower card, where his hammer would burst into flames as Luigi would jump in and hammer him, hitting the ground with fiery shockwaves that struck Luxord as the Fire Flower deactivated right after and returned to his hands as Luxord snapped his fingers, where a few cards appeared behind Luigi and hit him, making him stumble a bit but he shook it off and jumped over to Luxord, kicking him in the thigh and used a Super Jump Punch to knock him into the air.

Luxord recovered as he formed a barrier around him as Luigi found himself surrounded by cards again, this time seeing Mario, a Boomerang Flower, Hoopa, Affection and even another Fire Flower as Luigi used his Thunder Hand to free them all.

"Thanks bro! Let's-a do this!" Mario said, high fiving Luigi as they turned into cards for his deck as Luxord formed a barrier around him as Luigi would see a few Xs and one O. Luigi smirked, pulling out the Hoopa and Affection card, where Hoopa summoned rings.

"Mis Miiiiis!" Affection cried, unleashing Shadow Ball into the ring where it hit Luxord, destroying his barrier as Luigi pulled out another card and threw his hammer to Luxord, but he weaved his head to avoid the hammer as he threw cards at Luigi, but then his hammer made a U-Turn and slammed into Luxord's back, as Luigi had used the Boomerang Flower card.

Once they went back into his deck, Luigi called out Mario and with a nod, they used Knockback Bros to smack Mario into Luxord as he pulled out a few cards to block, one of them being Peach as Mario slammed into the Peach card, which freed the princess as she turned around and Peach Bombed Luxord as Mario broke the other cards, which were Affectio, Kodama, and Pueo.

"Shuuup!" Affectio cried, then he and Kodama unleashed Shadow Ball as Luxord avoided these but Luigi used the Hoopa card to have rings pop up, with the Shadow Balls go into the rings and slammed into Luxord while Luigi's Dartrix used Leafage to knock him back, and then all the cards returned to Luigi.

"Let's shuffle the deck!" Luxord said, creating a dome of cards around them as Luxord himself disappeared into the cards. Luigi glanced over at the cards dancing around him as he spotted Kagura, Circuit, Daisy and his Poltergust 3000 as Luigi used his Thunder Hand to travel across the ground and hit the cards to free them.

"Ori!" Kagura cried as Daisy picked up the Poltergust.

"Sweetie, catch!" Daisy threw it to him as Luigi caught it and once he equipped it, he proceeded to suck in all the cards and then spat out Luxord, then proceeded to shoot the entire deck into him with Circuit using Spark, causing him to grunt as he landed on the ground where Kagura used Revelation Dance and then Daisy went running in and flanked him as Luxord turned around and blocked Daisy's punch with his arms, but Daisy would sweep kick him as Luigi shuffled the deck and then snapped his fingers, as Luxord would find himself surrounded by Fire Flower and Ice Flower cards as they shot out streams of fire and ice and him from all directions.

"Nngh!" Luxord grunted as Luigi used the Hoopa Card to make him drop on Luxord as he pulled out his hammer and swung it right on his head. "Grraaaagh!" He yelled as everything faded to white shortly after.

End BGM

"I'mma Luigi, number one!" Luigi cheered, being hugged by Mario and the princesses, then Marnie and Neo jumped in to hug him, and then RWBY and JNPR right after.

"Well, how about that." Sora said in awe.

"Alright, I'm giving it a shot next." Blake said, rolling her shoulder as she selected her opponent and kept it on Proud mode and then got herself digitized into the data world. "Ooof… that's… disorienting." She said, rubbing her head as she turned her head, seeing she was in a flower garden in Radiant Garden. "Wait… wasn't I here earlier?"

Her ears twitched, her eyes shifted and then swiftly dodged an attack that was thrown at her. She immediately turned around to her assailant. "Terra?" She asked in surprise, seeing that Terra's hair was silver and had a Guardian right behind him.


Outside

"Explain yourself!" Nora exclaimed, grasping Terra's shoulders. "WHY ARE YOU IN THERE?!"

"Blame Xehanort, not me!" Terra defended.


Inside

"Hmhmhmhm… not every day I meet a human/cat hybrid." Terranort said as Blake pulled out Gambol Shroud.

"It's Faunus." Blake said, getting in her battle stance.

"The scars on your face tells me you were in a harsh battle… a true warrior. I wonder how many scars it'll take before you fall…"

"That's not going to happen."

BGM: Dismiss (Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep)

The 13th Vessel - Data Terranort

Blake rushed at Terranort, shooting lasers at him but he would have the Guardian block as he would then swing his arms up to release shockwaves, only for Blake to roll out of the way and shot him up, but Terranort appeared behind Blake, her ears twitching soon after. "Over here!"

Blake would turn around and blocked the attack, switching modes as she shot him with a Plasma Beam, making Terranort slide as she would switch to the Belladonna Claws as she would viciously slash at him but he would parry her and then countered, only she disappeared. "What?" He said in surprise as Blake slashed him from the left side as she gave him a good kick right after, then she fired a charged shot from her claws as Terranort slashed at her, but the clone disappeared as the real one jumped over and flip kicked him, then switching back to Gambol Shroud and shot an Ice Beam attack at him to freeze him.

The Guardian, however, shot up from the ground and struck Blake, punching her straight to a wall. "Nnnngh!" She grunted as she fell on one knee. That thing hits like a truckShe thought as Terranort broke free as the Guardian threw discs at her as she ran at him, sliding underneath the discs as Terranort warped to her and slashed her, but her semblance kicked in and the real one slashed him in the back, hitting him with the Spazer Beam right after.

Terranort smirked, jumping back as the two of them fired Dark Blasts at her where Blake would nimbly avoid the fireballs and shot a few lasers at him before she landed on the ground, noticing the Guardian was gone as she swiftly rolled out of the way to avoid the Guardian ambushing her from below as it punched her right after, but Blake would block this time… however it did cause her to slide several feet as Terranort warped behind her and slashed her up into the air as the Guardian flew up and threw his fists into her, sending her crashing to the ground.

"Mmmph!" Blake grunted, getting up and shaking it off as a dark pool had surrounded them.

"Don't let her escape." He ordered and disappeared into the darkness as the Guardian went to punch her but Blake would proceed to dodge the attacks.

"Come on, big guy!" Blake taunted as the Guardian went to slug her, but turned herself into an ice statue after using her semblance, trapping his arm in the ice as Blake would slash through him with the claws and knocked the Guardian away, while also dodging the shockwaves around them. Her ears twitched soon after as she immediately rolled out of the way right as Terranort came down to attack her, then Blake lunged at him and impaled him with Gambol Shroud's blade.

"Rrrgh!"

"Game over." Blake said, firing a point blank Plasma Shot at him to make him back up, swiftly dodging the Guardian's attacks as Terranort swung his Keyblade but Blake slid underneath him and in a swift moment, she would slash him at his Achilles' tendon at his right foot as Terranort let out a loud cry and fell on his knee and then Blake turned around, firing a Spazer Beam right at him to finish him off.

"But… how…" He whispered as everything faded to white.

End BGM

Terra grimaced a bit after Blake returned. "You okay?" Ven asked.

"I… I'm going to be careful around her." Terra said, a shiver going up his spine while Lea added to the white board with a hum.

"Alright… time for me to shine." Weiss said, walking forward with confidence as she looked at the ReMind difficulty as she selected it.

"Are you crazy?" Ruby asked as Weiss turned to her.

"Just a little bit." She said as she selected her opponent. "If they go all out, then why shouldn't I?" She smirked as she was digitized… and ended up at the Clock Tower in Twilight Town, or more like, in front of it… in mid air.

"Huh, that's a cool clock tow-" She looked down. "WHAT THE HELL?!" She yelled, nearly losing her balance.

"Relax." A voice said as Weiss turned to see her opponent, her face shrouded in the Organization cloak.

"…Xion?" Weiss tilted her head.

"Yup." She nodded, summoning the Kingdom Key. "You ready?"

Weiss readied Myrtenaster, getting in her stance. "Ready." How bad can a data version of Xion be? This won't be a problem. She thought.

BGM: Vector to the Heavens (Kingdom Hearts III: ReMind)

No. i - Xion

Weiss ran over to Xion and slashed her, but Xion would swiftly block and before Weiss could even blink, she would warp around her in a light and slashed her from behind. She's fast! She thought as she slashed at her in retaliation, using the ice glyphs and throwing icebergs at her, but Xion would swiftly bat them away and then slashed down on the ground, sending pillars of light at her and forcing Weiss to roll away, and then Xion wrapped around next to her and slashed her, giving Weiss no time to block.

Mmph! Definitely an aggressive fighter. She thought as she then used fire glyphs to shoot fire at her but Xion would roll out of the way, only to get struck by Weiss's rapier, stabbing her a few times and then stabbing the ground to form ice stalagmites, but Xion would on these and then used Strike Raid, forcing Weiss to block as Xion swiftly warped to her Keyblade and slashed her away where Weiss would recover and stabbed the ground, summoning a few Beowolves as they lunged at Xion.

"Hmph." Xion proceeded to slash at the Beowolves, effortlessly destroying them as she would throw around pillars of light where Weiss would roll out of the way and then trapped Xion with gravity glyphs as she would rush at her and impaled her, sending her flying but Xion recovered. Weiss would see Xion glowing a blue aura around her as she viciously threw down pillars of light everywhere that shot out in an x formation while also viciously slashing at her.

"Mmmph!" Weiss would try to parry the attack, but Xion slashed Myrtenaster off of her and then whacked her away with the Keyblade, sending her sliding. AlrightShe thought, pulling out Eiskönigin as she proceeded to slash at Xion, both of them clashing as Weiss could only see an empty void within the hood. That's not creepy… Weiss thought, pushing Xion back as she slashed her away, but Xion backflipped and used Strike Raid, forcing Weiss to block as her eyes followed Xion warping around as she turned around and blocked a vicious attack but Xion aggressively kept attacking her and then slashed her weapon off of her and then swung up to send Weiss flying into the air and then jumped up and slashed Weiss to the ground, then made it rain pillars of light at her.

"Aaagh!" She yelped as Xion landed to slash her away. "Alright… you asked for it…" She said and then immediately went into her Fierce Deity form, summoning both her weapons and her Schnee Orbitars as she swiftly rushed at Xion, the latter doing the same as both swung their weapons, clashing against each other as Weiss parried Xion and then slashed her repeatedly while also firing ice lasers at her, forcing Xion to block the lasers where Weiss would then lunge ahead and slashed her to the side.

"Raaaah!" Xion aggressively yelled, throwing down pillars of light as Weiss dodged a few of them, but got hit by a few others.

Nnngh… I don't get it… why do I feel sluggish every time I get hit by one of these things? Weiss thought as she lunged and slashed her, as her foot turned to ice as she attempted to ice kick Xion, but she would jump to the side and aggressively slashed her, throwing down even more Pillars of Light as Weiss got hit by a few of these.

"Nnngh… I'm not… done!" She declared, firing ice lasers at Xion, but she was already behind her and whacked her away before raising her Keyblade up as a massive pillar of light came down and slammed right on top of her. "AAAAAAAAAAAGH!" She screamed as everything faded to white right after.

End BGM

"Aaaah!" Weiss sat up, panting. "What… what was that?!" She exclaimed as RWY and the Mario Bros were near her… and then Luigi looked to the side and let out a yelp.

"What is it?" Ruby asked and then noticed that the hooded figure was still there. "Holy crap, the data came out to finish the job!" She exclaimed as they got ready to fight, but noticed the Wielders didn't even flinch.

"I wasn't too rough on you, was I?" Xion asked as she removed her cloak, revealing it was the real deal herself.

"WHAT?!" Weiss yelled. "You mean to tell I fought you?! Why wasn't I fighting a data copy?!"

"Let's just say she felt insulted when they came up with a data version of her so she mercilessly destroyed it to the point where it was irreparably damaged." Lea said.

"Noooo? I just asked that I wouldn't have a data version of myself. It'd just be weird if I saw myself fighting Sora."

"Pffft, yeah, but my version sounds more badass." Lea grinned.

"Riiiiight…" Roxas rolled his eyes while Isa simply shook his head.

"Sorry about that, Weiss. No hard feelings?" Xion smiled, extending her hand to her.

"Oh… I can't be mad at that." Weiss said, taking Xion's hand and was pulled up by her. "Though, why didn't you use the other Keyblade you have… what was it again… something Weapon?"

"Omega Weapon? Well, I could've done it but it would've ruined the surprise." Xion giggled.

"Can't argue with that." Weiss shrugged, then noticed Umber readying himself and having it be on Critical/ReMind mode.

"If I go out… I'll go out in a blaze of glory." Umber said with a smirk, and then found himself being digitized into a destroyed Destiny Islands. "Yeesh, this island's seen better days." He said as he walked around and spotted an arena that was coated in darkness where he fearlessly stepped inside.

"You're a brave one."

Umber turned his head as he saw Data Ansem leaning on the wall, smirking at him. "Ah, so you're my opponent, eh?"

"Indeed." Ansem said as he walked away from the wall. "Now, as we begin our battle, I shall turn you into darkness!"

Umber smirked, readying his scepter. "Okay, I believe you."

BGM: L'Eminenza Oscura I (Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance)

The Seeker of Darkness - Data Ansem

Umber rushed toward Ansem, swinging his scepter around and throwing mirrors at him, but Ansem would simply float away from the mirrors and then fired dark lasers at him, but Umber would block these and then threw out plasma bolts at him, striking Ansem as he jumped ahead and swung his scepter a few times before hitting him with a few mirrors.

Ansem would respond to have a dark shadow shoot out to Umber similar to Dark Riku's attack as claws came out but Umber narrowly avoided it but rolled into some mines. "Nngh!" Umber grunted as Ansem picked Umber up by the collar and threw him to the ground as more dark lasers at him.

"Rrrgh!" Umber grunted as a dark orb was thrown at him, but he shattered upon impact as the real Umber swung his scepter from the left, swinging it around as mirrors were formed as Ansem would fire a dark laser at the mirros, making them bounce off of each other as it struck Umber on the knee, then Ansem would have it rain lasers on him, but Umber swiftly avoided this as plasma crackled in his hands as he fired plasma bolts, but Ansem teleported near him, but Umber would jump to the side and fired a point blank charged up plasma shot, striking Ansem.

"Hraaaah!" Umber yelled, shooting more plasma bolts at him until a dark claw came up from underneath and struck him as Ansem surrounded himself in a laser-like shield and rammed into him, stinging Umber a few times until he jumped away and then snapped his fingers as a plasma bolt struck Ansem from above.

"Sink into the darkness!" Ansem exclaimed, changing the battlefield into a dark void and having two dark orbs surrounding him as they fired dark shots at him where Umber would fire plasma shots, all of them cancelling each other out until the dark orbs teleported to Umber, where it would shoot at him point blank.

"Aaagh!" He grunted as Ansem would fire lasers right after but Umber rolled out of the way as he swung his scepter at Ansem as he got close, hitting him with mirrors as he fired a plasma beam at the mirrors while as Ansem fired a dark laser, the two of them barely grazing each other as the laser/plasma beam hit the both of them.

Umber shook it off as he summoned a few Mirror clones as they surrounded Ansem as they fired plasma bolts but Ansem would pull up a laser barrier to block these as Umber used a mirror clone as a stepping stone as he leapt over the barrier and fired a Plasma bolt to strike him, making Ansem stumble a bit as Umber smacked him over the head with the scepter as the dark void disappeared, and then Ansem grabbed him by the collar again.

"Submit!" He exclaimed, throwing Umber away as the dark claws grabbed a hold of him as Umber stumbled as he got up, panting as he could see that Ansem was looking worn out himself.

Gotta end this! He thought as he charged ahead, narrowly dodging the lasers and dark orbs thrown at him as he even dodged the heat seaking mines as Umber threw a few Plasma bolts at him where Ansem blocked with his laser barrier and then when he dismissed it, Umber smacked him with the scepter until Ansem grabbed a hold of it and yanked it off of him.

"Desist!" He said, throwing a few mirrors to hit Umber with before whacking him on the head with it before tossing it to the side. Umber let out a growl and his hands crackled with electricity as plasma-like discs formed in his hands and threw it at him, with one disc hitting Ansem but the other grazed him as Ansem launched at him, attempting to hit him but Umber rolled out of the way, grabbing his scepter as the two charged at each other, hitting each other both at the same time as both were at a standstill.

"Nnngh…!" Umber panted before falling to the ground in defeat.

End BGM

"You had almost beaten me, boy…" Ansem smirked. "Well fought." He said as everything faded to white.

"Uuungh… almost had him…" Umber said, rubbing his head as Marnie had given him a few Oran Berries. "Thanks." He said with a smile as he ate them up while Lea added to the white board.

Organization XIII - V

"Two left!" Sora said.

"I'll give it a shot." Youmu spoke up, approaching them. "Time to show you Wielders that Gensokyo is not to be messed with." She said, selecting her fight and keeping it on ReMind where she got digitized and found herself in a white void, complete with a few buildings including Memory Skyscraper itself.

"Welcome." A voice said as Youmu turned around to see Data Xemnas at the base of the skyscraper. "This is where we will fight."

"Fancy place you got here." Youmu said.

"Indeed. Here, we will see if you end up victorious… or if you will end up in the void. Organization XIII is not to be-"

"I'm gonna pull a Marisa and say you're boring me. Let's get on with the fight already." Youmu said, unsheathing her sword.

Xemnas let out a chuckle. "If that is what you desire." He said, summoning his ethereal blades.

BGM: L'Oscurita Dell'Ignoto (Kingdom Hearts III: ReMind)

Superior of the In-Between - Data Xemnas

Youmu and Xemnas charged at each other, slashing at each other with their blades as the two jumped back as Xemnas fired lasers, and Youmu fired danmaku where the two canceled each other out where the two proceeded to slash each other, the two ending up clashing as the two struggled to gain the upper hand until Youmu parried him and countered, slashing him repeatedly.

"Guard!" Xemnas said, summoning an electrical barrier where Youmu would go around the barrier and strike Xemnas, slashing him and throwing danmaku in his face for good measure as Xemnas would dance around with his blades, slashing at Youmu a few times before he disappeared.

Where are youYoumu thought to herself, looking around as Myon poked her on the shoulder. "Hmm?" She would look up to see Xemnas on top of Memory Skyscraper. "Well, let's not keep him waiting." She said as she ran up the steps and flew up while Xemnas jumped down. He jumped?! She thought to herself.

As the two had met each other midway, the two would clash until Youmu parried him and slashed him toward Memory Skyscraper, then she unleashed Matsuyoi-Reflecting Satellite Slash to cut through him, but then Xemnas jumped down and landed on the ground and awaited Youmu as the two slashed at each other, but then Xemnas would trap her between barriers.

"Fire!" He yelled, as Youmu attempted to block these shots, where a few of them had hit her as she flew out of the barriers and slashed at Xemnas, where he blocked the attack and chuckled a bit, parrying her and grabbing her by the collar, firing vine-like projectiles her but then Myon flew up and changed into a second Youmu as she slashed down at Xemnas, forcing him to drop Youmu as both of them countered while throwing danmaku around at him, and then Xemnas disappeared.

Now where did you go? She thought as Myon turned back to normal as Youmu would look up to see Xemnas floating above her as he raised his arms up in the air, and then to Youmu's surprise, several buildings rose up from the ground. The very sight of it was enough to unnerve her, making her back up as her face paled as a bead of sweat rolled down her cheek.

"What on...?!" Youmu exclaimed in surprise as Xemnas threw the buildings at her. She quickly snapped out of her stupor as she got into position, her sword gaining a blue aura. "Hesitation Cutting Sword: Slash of Departure from Hesitation!" She called out as she leapt forward and slashed through the buildings, cutting through them as she flew toward as Xemnas slashed at her, but in the blink of an eye, she was already behind him and slashed him toward the ground.

Youmu landed on the ground shortly after as she lunged at him to slash through him, but he disappeared... and soon found herself surrounded by a large dome of laser bullets ready to shoot at her.

"Ready..."

"You gotta be kidding!" Youmu said exasperatedly, getting in a stance as Myon transformed and was right at Youmu's back. "Alright Myon, here we go..."

"FIRE!" Xemnas yelled as laser hell was unleashed on her, where she and Myon proceeded to deflect the lasers all around them with some of the lasers hitting them as they kept at it, determined to try to deflect them all.

Once they were all deflected, Youmu fell on her knees in exhaustion and then Xemnas slashed her away. "Nnngh!" She grunted as she looked up at Xemnas who pointed his Ethereal Blade at her as he was ready to finish her, but then Myon took the blow instead. "Myon! Agh!" Youmu winced as she got up, her legs wobbling but she grabbed her other sword that Myon held as she lunged ahead, slashing at Xemnas repeatedly and then parried him, slashing him up into the air and then together with Myon, the two of them unleashed Cherry Blossom Flashing to finish him off, with everything fading to white.

"Hah... hah..." Youmu panted, already on her hands and knees. "You guys dealt with that?!"

"Yup." Sora nodded. "Thrown buildings and all."

"Good grief..." Youmu sighed and then glanced over at a collapsed Luigi, Jaune and Hop. "What's with them?"

"They fainted at the sight of the buildings being thrown." Pyrrha responded.

"Can't say I blame them..." Youmu mumbled, looking at Lea adding on to the board.

Organization XIII - V

Friends - VII

"Alright, all that's left is the old fart himself." Lea said. "So who wants to tackle him?"

"I will give it a shot." Pyrrha said as she stepped forward.

"Now wait just a second!"

"Ugh, seriously?" Yang groaned as Hades popped in via teleporter.

"Now what kind of party is this? You're having a ultimate baddie smackdown without me? Oh, how you wound me so!"

"Uh, who is this guy?" Riku asked.

"Hades." Everyone said.

"There's two of them?!" Lea exclaimed in disbelief.

"That's... horrifying." Ienzo mumbled.

"Compared to the blue haired buffoon, I'm the better Hades." He smirked.

"So, I take it you want a turn then?" Ansem asked.

"Of course! Heh, I don't even need to be digitized... I'll just take the shortcut." He said and then teleported away.

Pyrrha clenched her fists. "I am not going to let him take this opportunity away from me." She said, immediately getting herself digitized.

"Well, this should be interesting..." Sora said.


In the Digital World...

"Interesting layout..." Hades mused, as he was at Scala Ad Caelum. "Have to say, it's an eyesore but I think I can do some redecorating."

"My, aren't you a sight."

Hades turned his head, seeing the old man himself approaching him. "Ah, so you're this Xehanort I've heard about. I have to say, you look more like a Leonard Nimoy than a Christopher Lloyd."

"Hmm, I have no idea what you mean."

"Ah, don't worry about it, you old coot. Oh, by the way, I love your style. Using Kingdom Hearts to destroy everything with light because there's too much darkness? My my, and I thought I fell in love with mass genocide!"

Xehanort smirked. "Well, I did it for a good reason."

"But of course! Everyone has a good reason... but I must say, you have the most complicated way of going about it. Splitting yourself up with thirteen vessels and going back in time to talk to your past self, all in the name of spreading light all around the worlds? Oh, and let's not forget your Heartless vessel! Seeker of Darkness, was it? You claim there is too much darkness, and you want to cleanse it all... and yet, here's this one fella who's all about spreading the worlds in darkness! You can't have one without the other, so which is it, Mr. I Have a Thanos Complex? You can't have both!"


Outside...

"Wait, weren't we making fun of someone like this at the Scarlet Mansion?" Daisy asked.

"We were." Gloria nodded as it slowly dawned on RWBY, JNR, the Mario Bros, Youmu, Daisy and Gloria.

"Holy moly..." Luigi whispered.

"No fockin' way..." Gloria paled up.

"HE'S REAL?!" They all yelled.

"Y'all made fun of this guy and you didn't even invite me? Come on, you guys!" Lea mumbled, shaking his head.

"Something tells me I would've enjoyed mocking him. Ah hell, I'll mock him right now." Umber chuckled.


Inside...

He's real... Pyrrha thought as she had climbed up a roof and slowly got into position.

"I will admit, I might have acted a bit rashly."

"That's a massive understatement right there." Hades chuckled. "Now, I think I will have the pleasure of tormenting you in this digital hell for your comeuppance."

"Is that a fact?" Xehanort smirked.

"Indeed, it's time I showed you the door, old man. I hope you enjoy this!" Hades said as Xehanort summoned the X-Blade. "Oh, you think you can summon a toothpick to fight me? How adorable!"

Hopefully, I get some of the action soon. Pyrrha thought.

BGM: Forze Dell'Oscurita (Kingdom Hearts III: ReMind)

Time Traveling Old Man - Data Xehanort

Hades lunged at Xehanort, swinging his arm and punching him but Xehanort was able to jump back and throw a Dark Firaga at him, but Hades was able to bat it away as he clapped his hands together and shot a massive laser at Xehanort, but he twirled his X-Blade and deflected it easy, where he had his never ending smirk… and then Hades teleported behind Xehanort and gave him a good kick toward a building, then Hades would leap toward him and slugged him repeatedly.

It was then that Xehanort slashed him away and unleashed a Flare right at Hades, sending the God of the Underworld sliding a bit as Xehanort unleashed a Flare Shot at him, but Hades was able to backhand a few of them while catching one and crushing it with his hand as Xehanort then used Flare Tornado to surround Hades.

"Oh, isn't that adorable." Hades smirked, quickly spinning around to become a tornado himself and cancelled out the Flare Tornadoes as he spun toward Xehanort, who simply rushed toward the tornado and slashed through him, causing Hades to fall on his stomach. "Hmph!" Hades sprang back up, dusting his shoulders off as Xehanort warped over to Hades and slashed him but the God of the Underworld grabbed the X-blade with one hand.

"Live long and prosper, old man!" He said, delivering an uppercut to knock him into the air as he grew gigantic and then clapped his hands to squish him like a bug, but Xehanort had warped on his shoulder. "Great Scott! Where did you go?" He wondered as Xehanort summoned a huge cannon and fired a massive laser that pierced through his head. "Ooooh! Ow!" He yelled as Xehanort jumped off and fired another cannon that knocked the gigantic god down, where he shrunk back down to normal size, and when Hades got up, Xehanort warped next to him and slashed him into a building, where he swung his X-Blade as it exploded on the god and sent him flying even further, where several buildings landed on top of him.

End BGM

"Hmph. So much for the God of the Underworld." Xehanort smirked, and then shifted his eyes to see a shield being thrown at him as he parried the shield as he would see Pyrrha walking toward him, catching the shield.

"You claim there is too much darkness and so you want to purge it with the light. However, your logic is flawed. There cannot be darkness without the light. Just because there may be someone of the light does not automatically make them good… same goes for someone of the dark, it does not automatically make them evil. There can be someone good in the dark and someone bad in the light. There has to be a balance… and for you to destroy that balance, that cannot happen. Light and darkness must co-exist… something that you can't even grasp."

Xehanort smirked at her. "I like you… you have a name?"

"Pyrrha Nikos." Pyrrha said, getting in a stance.

"Well, Pyrrha… let's see if you are correct!" He said, summoning his No Heart armor.

BGM: Guardando Nel Buio (Kingdom Hearts 1.5 HD ReMix)

Pyrrha and Xehanort lunged at each other, both of them swinging their weapons as they clashed against each other, then Xehanort parried her and went to strike her in the gut but Pyrrha swiftly blocked with her shield, and then Pyrrha would slash at his stomach and then flip kicked him to knock him back a bit.

Xehanort responded with a Blizzaga Shot but Pyrrha rolled out of the way as she proceeded to slash him but he would block and parry, where he would punch her with a one two punch to send her sliding, and then aimed the X-Blade up in the air with a Thundaga, but Pyrrha had recovered and rolled out of the way, then Xehanort warped to her and slashed her, but she blocked and then sweep kicked him where she would push his armor away with her semblance.

"Impressive!" Xehanort said, unleashing a Flare Tornado on her but Pyrrha would use her Fire Brand to launch her way over a building and then threw a fireball at Xehanort where he deflected it, but failed to notice the ground underneath him lighting up as a plume of fire rose up and hit him, sending him into the air as Pyrrha launched up and slashed him down before conjuring up a large fireball and threw it down.

Xehanort stood up and slashed through the fireball, where Pyrrha would launch herself and slashed through him as Xehanort turned around and grabbed her ponytail as he threw her to a building and then threw his X-Blade and unleashing Call Calamity that knocked Pyrrha away. He would then disappear into a Keyhole-shaped pillar and then got close to Pyrrha as she was getting up, slashing at her but she blocked with her shield, getting back up and slashed him a couple of times.

Xehanort raised his X-Blade up in the air as pillars of light came raining down, forcing Pyrrha to dodge as she backflipped and then ignited her shield as she threw her flaming shield at him, but he would catch it and with a chuckle, Pyrrha would see darkness forming in his hand before the shield was encased in ice and then he threw it down, where her shield shattered on impact.

Pyrrha's eyes widened in shock before she charged ahead, slashing Xehanort with her spear… only for him to grab it and it too froze over, but Pyrrha yanked her hand away lest her hand gets frozen, then Xehanort kicked her down where she would helplessly watch as Xehanort swung the X-Blade down and shattered Milo in front of her, and then she was blasted away from her, making her roll against the sidewalk and nearly hit a chair.

"How the mighty warrior falls!" He said, warping to her and slashing her from behind, cutting off her band that held her ponytail in place as she crashed into a wall, where she fell on her hands and knees. "You cannot hope to win! You fought valiantly, but without your weapons, you are powerless."

Pyrrha stood up, reaching into a pocket and pulling out a Super Mushroom, eating it fully and feeling herself rejuvenated. She closed her eyes as flames wrapped around her body as a flaming sword and shield, reminiscent of Milo and Akuou, then she opened her eyes, filled with a determined fiery passion. "I'm not done yet."

"Then give me everything you got!"

Pyrrha launched herself over to Xehanort, slashing him ferociously as he blocked but felt himself being pushed back as he would respond with a Dark Kick and then threw Dark Shots at her, but Pyrrha launched herself up in the air and would form a fire cannon which fired large fireballs at him. He would disappear ito a Keyhole portal and slashed at Pyrrha, sending her flying back a few feet where she turned around and faced him.

The two of them flew toward each other, slamming into each other with Xehanort using Sonic Impact and Pyrrha cloaking herself in fire as both of them were knocked back as Pyrrha would unleash a stream of fire at him, as Xehanort would fly out of the way but Pyrrha manipulated it to where it made a u-turn and slammed into Xehanort from behind, and then Pyrrha would fly at him with a fiery greatsword and slashed him away.

Xehanort raised his hand up in the air right as Pyrrha flew toward him as a pillar of darkness rose up and hit her, freezing her in place as Xehanort slashed her down into a building where he used Heavenly Pillar to destroy everything around him, but Pyrrha shot out of a building as she dodged debris as she formed a bow annd arrow and launched fire arrows at him. Xehanort would deflect these, but the arrows exploded on contact as Pyrrha launched herself, forming a spear and shield as she viciously slashed at Xehanort, where he would block and parry her, and then using an explosive punch that sent her crashing to the ground.

"Heheheh…" Xehanort smirked, summoning Flare Tornadoes as Pyrrha got up, jumping away from the tornadoes as Xehanort landed in front of her as he swung his X-Blade, but Pyrrha gracefully backflipped as she put her hands to the ground as a fiery ring surrounded the two. Xehanort let out a chuckle, sending out a few clones of himself to deal with Pyrrha, forcing herself to form a shield around her to block out the clones while Xehanort summoned a few cannons where they proceeded to shoot at her, only for Pyrrha to get out of the shield and rolled out of the way, right when he used Thundaga at the spot.

"Nnngh!" She grunted as Xehanort warped to her and grabbed her by the throat, slamming her to the ground and then raised his fist up to use another explosive punch, then he kicked her away as Pyrrha got up, her aura flickering as she let out a growl. She proceeded to conjure up a massive fireball and threw it at him where Xehanort proceeded to slash through… only to find Pyrrha completely gone.

Pyrrha emerged from the firey ring, wrapping herself in fire and launched to him from behind, hitting him and went into the fire again, shooting out from all directions before Pyrrha flew up and snapped her fingers as the ring of fire closed in on Xehanort and trapped him inside where there was a massive explosion soon after.

"Impressive!" Xehanort said, floating behind her as she let out a gasp and slashed her down to the ground, her aura shattering when the X-Blade hit her as she slammed into the ground as Xehanort landed in front of her.

BGM: Organization XIII (Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMix)

"Nnngh… aaagh…" Pyrrha panted, slowly wobbling as Xehanort calmly landed in front of her. She stumbled a bit. "Hah… hah…"

"You fought valiantly… however, this is where our battle ends." Xehanort said.

"PYRRHA!" A voice cried as Jaune came running in and had his shield up.

"Jaune…" Pyrrha quietly said.

"Oh?"

"That is enough, Xehanort." Jaune said. "You are not going to finish her off… not here!" He declared as he lunged at Xehanort, slashing him viciously as Xehanort calmly blocked the attacks and then effortlessly parried him.

"Admirable, boy… but this isn't your fight." Xehanort said, giving him an explosive punch.

"AAAAGH!" Jaune cried as he was launched to a building. "Gah!" He grunted, falling on his knees.

"Jaune!" Pyrrha weakly said as her fists burst into flames, stumbling toward Xehanort.

"You are definitely right. Light and shadow cannot exist without the other, for they must coexist… however, too much light or too much darkness can be a horrid thing." Xehanort said as Pyrrha sluggishly punched him but Xehanort took a step back, watching her nearly losing her balance. "There was too much darkness, so I had to do what I thought was best… but it turns out I was misguided." He said, watching Pyrrha forcing herself to punch him.

Xehanort dismissed his armor, smirking at Pyrrha as he caught her fist. "Very well fought, Pyrrha. Very respectable… but this is the end." He said as Jaune got up.

"Pyrrha, no…" Jaune said, readying his sword as a watery aura surrounded it as he raised his sword in the air right as Xehanort raised the X-Blade, taking a step back as Pyrrha exhaustedly tried to swing at him. "PYRRHA!" He yelled, throwing a watery Skyward Strike toward him… right as Xehanort swung his X-blade down. Everything faded to white right after.

"Pyrrha…? Pyrrha!"

"Come on, lass! Wake up!"

"Hey… hey! Wake up! WAKE UP!"

"Mmph!" Pyrrha woke up, sitting up and rubbing her head, feeling herself ache all over. "Agh…" She groaned, glancing at Lea adding the final tally to the white board.

Organization XIII - VI

"So that was Xehanort?" Yang asked.

"Yup." Sora nodded. "Him and Organization XIII really was something else for all of us."

Yang closed her eyes, chuckling. "Sora… I've gained a whole lot more respect for you." She said as Nora and Ren slowly picked up Pyrrha.

"This was… all we could salvage from your arsenal." Weiss said, giving a split in half Milo while Akuou was just only a few pieces. "Sorry Pyrrha…"

"No, it's okay…" Pyrrha said. "I just need to forge a new shield and weapon for me." She chuckled.

"Man… that was brutal." Ruby said with everyone agreeing.

"Wait, what about Hades?" Pyrrha asked.

"Oh, don't worry about him." Palutena said. "He's resting his head back at the Underworld. You didn't see it, but I took him out of the data world with my pillar of light, took him back to the Underworld. He wasn't kidding that the universe being reset did a number on his power."

"That's good…" Pyrrha said as she looked at Jaune. "Jaune… I… I want to thank you for trying to protect me back there."

Jaune blushed a bit, rubbing the back of his head. "It was… nothing." He said with a chuckle.

"Soooooo!" Lea spoke up. "I heard Luigi has a casino! How about we go over there and check it out? I'm curious!"

Luigi chuckled. "Sure! We can all get our minds off things with that." He said. "Except for the minors… sorry."

"Ah, it's fine. I'm not into casinos anyway." Marnie shrugged and looked at Neo. "Have fun over there." She said with Neo nodding with a smile, hugging Marnie as they all walked out of the portal as even Ansem the Wise and Even joined them.

"Say… where was his majesty… Mickey, was it?" Ruby asked. "I didn't see him anywhere."

"He stopped for a quick visit when you were fighting Marluxia, but he had to run somewhere. He wouldn't say why…" Riku said.

"Aww…" Ruby pouted. "I missed him…"

"Ah, cheer up. He said "Say hi to Ruby for me"." Lea said.

"Oh! Well thank you!" Ruby beamed.

Later, at Luigi's Casino in Mushroom City…

BGM: Casino (Super Mario 64 DS)

"Alright, here we go!" Luigi said, tossing cards toward the adults after shuffling the cards.

"He wasn't kidding. He is the master shuffler." Terra said.

"Right? That's crazy!" Lea nodded.

"That's our Luigi for you." Peach giggled.

"Hey guys!" Demyx waved them over. "You're not gonna believe who I found wandering around Remnant!"

"Who is it?" Ienzo asked as a man walked forward, as their eyes widened in surprise. The man in question was wearing a goatee, had blonde hair, was wearing a long sleeved black shirt and kahkis as he sat on the seat.

"Luxord?!" Riku said in surprise.

"Yeah, found his Somebody! Though he's still going by Luxord… just like how I'm still going by Demyx! Heh! What are the odds, right?" Demyx grinned.

Luxord chuckled a bit. "A pleasure to meet your acquaintance."

"Uh…" Luigi immediately pulled out a book titled "Book of Logic: Volume 2". "This can't be real… are we living in a simulation or is this the real deal?! Someone help me! We're doomed!"

"Honey, chill!" Daisy said, rolling her eyes at the book.

Luxord chuckled. "Simulation or not, how about a few rounds of poker?"

Luigi tossed the book behind him and nodded. "Let's-a go!"

"So, I can imagine they have fought valiantly against the Organization." Yen Sid said.

"Yup. I just received word from Donald and Goofy that they fought everyone. Some of them lost, and some of them won. It was narrowly even."

"I see." Yen Sid nodded. "This is good practice for what is about to come."

"Oh? Is that why you have summoned me?"

"Indeed. She is making her move again… and she is bringing along some friends."

"She?" Mickey wondered and then let out a gasp. "Oh no… you mean…"

"Yes. She is returning… and I have a pretty good feeling that she is making her way to Remnant."

"So what do we do?"

Yen Sid closed his eyes. "Let us hope the people of Remnant is ready… because Maleficent is about to pay a visit."


Sorry about the wait! This chapter took a little longer than I thought it'd go. But hey... it's here! And you know what's funny? A few months ago, Yoshi had the idea for this Gaiden and I was like "Yeah, this is perfect!" and well, this was going to be last chapter, but considering I gave a teaser for Amber's death, I thought i'd push it back for the next chapter... and look who decided to show up for Smash.

Ibuki: Sora-chan! Yay!

Who knew this Gaiden was going to be a celebration that Sora is in Smash? Funny how things work.

Ibuki: Yup!
