Smash Mansion
The mission is finally over, during those missions unexpected encounters, new development happens, some complete their mission earlier than others, others bring back new allies, some succeed their mission, but there are others who unfortunately fail, and some of those who succeed unknowingly not hindering the bad guys goal, but nevertheless moving forward is the only option.
Morning...
"*Yawn* that was a good night sleep." Little Mac stretching a bit before heading to the kitchen.
Kitchen
As Little Mac entered the kitchen he saw Lucina already there.
"Morning Lucina, having breakfast ?" Asked Little Mac as he opened the refrigerator to get some milk and the cupboard to get some cereal.
"Yes, I'm having eggs and sausages, I use the food creator to instantly create it." Answered Lucina. "What are you having ?"
"Just milk and cereal, this is what Americans mostly eat during breakfast." Mac sit on the table and put the cereal to the bowl and pour milk onto it.
Soon after Bowser Jr. entered the kitchen seemingly a bit sleepy.
"Morning Jr. when did you get back ?" Asked Little Mac.
"Last night, sad to say but Lucas won't join us for a while." Said Jr. as he opened the fridge looking for fried chicken.
"Lucas won't join us ? What happened ?" Lucina and Mac is surprised by Jr. Statement.
"Lucas dad got hit by a memory erasing device, and since Lucas doesn't know how to restore memories, he'll be staying at his world for the time being to take care of his dad." Answered Jr. "Well guess that sleepover plan will have to wait."
"You planning a sleepover ? Here ?" Asked Mac.
"Yeah, we all talked about it when we visit Lucas's house, and since we're all living in the same place it makes sense to do it, but sorry Mac old men are not invited." Jr grabbed a plate of fried chicken and heat it in the microwave.
Hearing Jr's comment Mac spit out the milk and cereal he's eating, shocked by Jr. comment. "Old man ! I'm only 17 !"
"I know." Replied Jr nonchalantly as the fried chicken finished heating. "Wow this microwave sure is fast." Jr then left the kitchen to eat somewhere else.
Mac then saw Lucina giggling. "What are you laughing at !?"
"Sorry, but he called you an old man it's just funny." Lucina continue giggling.
"You do realize that means you're an old woman to him right ?" Mac retorted back.
This time Lucina is the one shocked. "I...don't count...it's only been a few days since I'm magically aged up."
"Does it matter, you are physically and mentally 18, so you're an old lady." Continued Mac which makes Lucina comically griping about her age.
"Look, there's no use getting worked up over a comment from a kid, we're still young no matter what Jr said." Said Mac.
"Sorry, you're right, It was silly getting worked up over that." Replied Lucina.
"Same here, even though that comment really caught me off guard." Continued Mac.
"So Mac...what is this sleepover Jr said earlier ?" Asked Lucina.
"I guess you are unfamiliar with the concept, sleepover is when you stayed over for a night in your friend's house, generally speaking." Explained Mac.
"So you sleep at your friends house then ?" Asked Lucina.
"Basically yeah." Stated Mac.
"So does this count as sleepover ?" Continued Lucina.
"No, because you have to sleep in the same room, we may live on the same building right now, but it doesn't count as sleepover." Explained Mac.
"I see, I think I get the gist of it now." Lucina started eating.
"Anyway you're up early today." Commented Mac.
"I have training to do with Jade today that's why I'm getting up early." Answered Lucina.
"I see, well it's nice to be able to talk with you like this." Said Mac.
"Why don't you eat with us later at lunchtime ? I don't think we've been eating together lately." Asked Lucina.
"Yeah, no offense but seeing you and your friends together really looks a lot like those high school cliques." Commented Mac.
"High school cliques ? What's that ?" Asked Lucina.
"Let's just say they're a people who get together out of common interest, they don't usually welcoming to outsiders, sometimes it's debatable whether they're friends or not, what ties them together are their common interest." Explained Mac.
"I see, but you know I don't think we're opposed to welcoming new people, when my parallel self and her friends get summoned to Askr they have no problem mingling with other heroes...oh that's right ! Why don't we do that sleepover thing ! Maybe you could get close to my friends that way !" Exclaimed Lucina.
"Well it's a good idea, but first Lucina I have to clarify that boys and girls are not allowed to have sleepovers together, for...obvious reasons." Described Mac.
"They're not ? But why ? And what do you mean obvious reasons ...?" Soon after Lucina realized the meaning of Mac's words. "Oh, I see what you mean."
"Yeah, anyway could you help me out ? I'm not familiar with your friends, so me inviting them out of the blue like that feels weird, and also maybe I should invite the rest of the guys around my age to join in, Red and Blue may know what sleepover is, but I don't think Link and Roy does." Said Mac.
"Don't worry I'll help persuade my friends, maybe I also gonna try having a girl's sleepover." And with that Mac and Lucina decided to throw a sleepover at a later date.
Foyer
"So no luck in finding the Plasm Wraith ?" Asked Fox.
"No, all the psychics are on a mission the other day so we have to search the old fashioned way." Stated Olimar.
"Well I asked Falco to come with me to Isabelle's world after he get back so I hope I didn't interrupt your search." Said Fox.
"No you don't, we were about done anyway, at the very least it doesn't seem that creature is anywhere near the mansion." Said Olimar.
"Well that creature got a death wish if it dare set it's foot here, or whatever it used to walk."
"It's a blob monster, don't think about it too much, anyway I think we have more pressing matters." Pointed out Olimar.
"Oh that's right ! R.O.B !" Exclaimed Fox.
R.O.B's Room
R.O.B and Ganondorf is watching over the professors.
Flashback...shortly after R.O.B's team came back from Koholint Island.
"So here it is, time to put their souls back inside their body." R.O.B let go the souls from his grip as the the souls entered the professors respective bodies.
"I can sense life is returning to them." Assured Ganondorf. "However it's likely they'll wake up tomorrow."
"I waited this long, I can wait one more day, thanks Ganondorf." R.O.B looked at Ganondorf.
"It's the least I can do, and now I have to make amends with my people." Replied Ganondorf. "Maybe I should come to future Hyrule first, I'll ask the latest Link for that later."
Flashback ended..
"Please wake up." R.O.B can only hope for the best as he waited for the professors to wake up.
R.O.B then notice small movements in the professor's body. "They're moving !?"
Prof. Hector yawn as he get up from the bed. "Oh man what day is it ? It feels like I've slept for ages." Prof. Hector then saw his assistant still sleeping in a different bed next to his bed. "Vector ! Wake up ! How long are you going to sleep !" Prof. Hector put his hand on Prof. Vector shoulder and shake his body.
"Okay okay, I'm up I'm up ! *yawn* What day is it ?" Prof. Vector finally wake up.
The two professors saw their creation in front of them. "R.O.B."
"Professors ? You, you're alive !" R.O.B hugged his creators.
"We're alive ? Did we miss something ?" Asked Prof. Vector.
And at that moment Fox and Olimar arrived at R.O.B's room. "Hey R.O.B ! Any progress with the professors ?" Asked Fox.
"Whoa ! A talking fox ! Are we still asleep ? Is this lucid dreaming !?" Exclaimed Prof. Hector seeing a talking animal.
"Fox ! It worked ! The professors are waking up !" Exclaimed Olimar.
"Yes I can see that, I'm gonna tell everyone !" Fox then left R.O.B' s room to deliver the good news. "HEY EVERYONE ! R.O.B's CREATORS ARE WAKING UP !" Fox's voice echoed throughout the mansion.
"Professor, this is no dream, I have a lot to tell to all of you." Said R.O.B.
"Okay, and who is that ?" Prof. Vector pointed at Olimar, he then whispered at Prof. Hector. "Sir, no offense but that guy looks kinda weird."
"Greetings, my name is Olimar, I'm a friend of R.O.B, and I'm...I suppose from your perspective an alien I came from Planet Hocotate." Olimar introduced himself to the professors.
"What !? You're an alien !? First a talking fox and now an alien !? This can't be real, can it !? Are we dreaming." Prof. Vector is in panic mode. "Hold on where are even are we !?"
"Vector calm down !" Prof. Hector smacked his assistant to calm him down. "R.O.B where are we ? Is this the Isle of Ancients ?"
"You're not dreaming, this is all real, and as where you are now..." Before R.O.B can answer the rest of the heroes entered R.O.B's room.
"They're awake ! Good for a-you R.O.B !" Mario congratulate the robot for his creators awakening.
"Yeah ! we succeed, we foil the bad guys !" Exclaimed Sonic.
"Oh R.O.B i'm so happy for you." Peach congratulate R.O.B for his success.
"I'm glad our mission a success." Ganondorf express relief.
"R.O.B ? Who are these people ?" Asked Prof Hector, feeling overwhelmed by the huge number of people.
"They are my friends, they came from many different worlds, all united for a common cause." Explained R.O.B.
And at that moment Palutena appeared as a holographic projection in front of the professors. "Greetings professors, I am Palutena, the goddess of light."
"Okay I give up, this...wherever this is have defied any common sense." Prof. Vector has given up and relented into accepting the situation.
"I know all of this are a lot to take in, however what happens here is the truth, could you enlighten us as how you two arrived at the World of Trophy ?" Asked Palutena.
"Okay, we've calmed down, I can tell you how it happened." Prof Hector begin explaining on how he ended up in the World of Trophy. "We were working in the lab as usual..."
Flashback...
Professor Hector's Lab
"Right then Vector, with a little more finishing touches, our latest creation will be complete."
"Of course professor, the Robotic Operating Buddy or R.O.B for short will soon be complete, the purpose to be companion to humans." Replied Vector.
Soon after a mild shaking occurred in the lab.
"What is that ? An earthquake !?" Exclaimed Hector.
"Professor look !" Vector pointed at the strange green creature, it has green feather and resemble a flightless bird.
"What is that creature ? I never seen that species before ?" Exclaimed Hector.
The bird creature walked towards Vector and begin biting him.
"Ouch ! Get off of me you strange bird thing !" Vector grabbed a machine part and use it to hit the head of the creature, the creature let go of it's beak from Vector's arm.
A racket sound can be heard from the back of the lab, the two professors rushed in to check to see what happened.
"What the ! What is going on here !" Prof Hector and Vector is shocked to see their lab is infested by the green bird creature, the bird creature moving around aimlessly, knocking and hitting anything they came across.
"Professor ! Do you think that's where they come from !?" Vector pointed what it looks like a spatial distortion.
"Is that a spatial distortion ?" Asked Hector.
"But but, when we tried to experiment on that portal, it doesn't seem to work !" Exclaimed Vector. "Could that portal that we made caused this ?"
"I don't know, but either way we can't have these things roaming around our lab, we have to send them back to that distortion." Prof Hector and Vector begin trying to round up the birds, however they won't stay still and bumping into everything, unfortunately one of them knocked over a flammable chemical.
"What ! We need to clean that liquid immediately !" Vector is running to get a mop, however one of the creature biting an electric plug and tore the cable, the cable touched the chemical and starting fire in the lab.
"Professor we need to get out of here !" Vector suggesting they escape, however the fire spread, and minimizing the escape route.
The bird creatures panicked and ended up knocking many chemicals, as some of the chemicals are highly volatile, an explosion soon occur, however coincidentally in the exact location of the explosion, a spatial distortion was formed there, the ensuing explosion caused the distortion to become unstable and engulf the inside of the lab.
Flashback ended...
R.O.B's Room
"And that's how we ended up in the World of Trophy." Explained Prof. Hector. "A giant floating glove who called himself Master Hand offered to return us to our world, but considering nobody would believe our story we decided to remain in this world at least until the news died down, we arrived at the place called Isle of Ancients, seeing a floating island for the first time really astound us."
"And that island is where we decided to finish our R.O.B project, we created several of R.O.B's before activating them, but the day when we decided to activate the first R.O.B that's when it's a blur to us, it's as if life is taken away from us, that's all we remember." Explained Prof. Vector.
"I see that must be when Tabuu begin to enact his plan." Said Palutena.
"When I was activated I only remember a Primid the one who activate me, and Tabuu spoke to me through that Primid, that I was his creation and my duty was to obey him." Explained R.O.B.
"So that's the truth behind that lab accident years ago." Doc Louis speak up.
"Whoa ! Aren't you Doc Louis the boxing champion !" Exclaimed Prof. Vector.
"Well former champ, it's been decades since I hold the title, many years have gone by ever since that accident." Explained Doc.
"So the accident, guess it made the news ?" Asked Prof. Hector.
"It certainly did, but because no body is found everyone assumed you're dead, well I guess you were dead until now, things are confusing right now, things you thought are fantasy turns out to be real." Continued Doc.
"Nothing at all ? What about those bird creatures ?" Asked Prof. Vector.
"Those creatures are called Smicks from their world, and the explosion must've sent them back to their world, or maybe they got sent to another entirely different world, what's clear is that they're not on Earth anymore." Answered Palutena. "And I think I know what's going on, the portal machine you make still have bugs and glitches, that's what causing those unstable distortion."
"Then I suppose we need to have to adapt to these times then, anyway R.O.B where are the rest of you ?" Asked Prof. Hector.
"Well...that's." R.O.B hesitant to answer, however Ganondorf stepped in.
"They're all gone, and it's all my fault, I was the one responsible for making R.O.B the last of his kind." Ganondorf kneel down with both his knees on the ground. "I'm truly sorry for what I did, you don't have to forgive me, you could turn me into a trophy and only revive me only when you need me."
"Look, we need an update about during what happened during our... semi death." Stated Prof Hector.
"Of course, R.O.B can you show them around the mansion first ?" Palutena looking at R.O.B.
"Of course, it would be my pleasure." R.O.B agreed to guide the professors around, Prof Hector and Vector get off from their bed and followed R.O.B the crowd soon disperse, hoping to give time to R.O.B with his creators.
"Lady Palutena, we want to thank you for your help yesterday." Slogra bowed his head to the goddess.
"We all have the same cause, we should help each other out, Death is recuperating well in my temple, he should be back in top form in two or three days." Replied Palutena.
"Really were grateful, well I suppose it's time to head out." Said Gaibon.
"Oh right, Death give you a small mission before he left your body right." Said Palutena.
"Yeah, we need to tell Mr. Hojo and Ms. Kagamiya that they don't need to involve themselves with this any further, after that though, I think we will stay with you all for the time being." Explained Gaibon.
"More help is reassuring, okay then you two have a safe trip." Palutena waved goodbye to the two monsters as Slogra opened a portal that leads to Mt. Hikami.
"Excuse me miss goddess, but aren't you accepting them too quickly ? I mean I heard from Chelsea that they're our enemies a while back right ?" Stephen voiced his skepticism.
"Teaming up with enemies are common when you're in this line of work, surely you watched the same thing happened with superhero shows right ? In certain episodes the hero teaming up with villains to fight a mutual enemy or somethig like that ?" Stated Palutena.
"Umm..well yes, but .."
"Well this is your life now, so expect things like this to happen."
"Right, I guess I need that my life is changing a lot, guess I'm gonna go work out." Stephen then went to the gym.
("How many more people will be dragged into this mess ?") Palutena holographic projection then disappeared.
Banjo's Room
"So you still can't get out ?" Banjo typing on the game that trapped L.O.G.
"No, Gruntilda really didn't give me a way to escape, I look around but there's nothing I can use, no items to collect, no objective to complete, I'm at loss what to do." L.O.G is feeling hopeless.
"She's really prepared doesn't she ? Can't you think of any other way ?" Asked Kazooie.
"There is one thing, if there's a way to overpower Gruntilda magic it's possible to set me free." Answered L.O.G. "But it should be done from the outside."
"Maybe we can ask goddess Palutena for that ?" Suggested Banjo.
"Well she is a goddess, she should be able to overpower a witch." Replied Kazooie.
"Right let's go find Pit." Banjo grabbed the computer game, carry it with him to find Pit.
Library
"And they all live happily ever after the end." Rosalina closed the book as she just finished reading a fairy tale to the Lumas as the Lumas cheering with joy.
"I miss this story time." Stated Polari.
"Sorry I haven't been around, work kept me busy." Said Rosalina.
"Don't worry, I know, this is super important after all." Polari is being understanding.
As Rosalina and Polari continued talking, Inigo is hiding behind a bookshelf. "Okay Inigo you can do this."
Inigo approached Rosalina acting all oblivious. "Oh miss Rosalina, didn't expect to see you here."
"Oh hello, umm...Inigo was it ?"
"Yep I'm Inigo chivalrous knight at your service." Inigo do a bowing gesture at Rosalina. "What brings a lovely lady like you to such a place ?"
"I'm reading a story for the Lumas, I used to do this often, but now that things are a bit busy I can't read as often as I used to." Explained Rosalina.
"Oh I see, so are you done reading ?" Asked Inigo.
"I am, why ?" Replied Rosalina.
"You know if you have nothing else to do, why don't we have tea together, getting to know each other more." Said Inigo.
Seeing this Polari is seething with anger, he then come up with a diabolical plan in mind. "Hey everyone looks like we're finally getting a father !"
Hearing this the Lumas jumping in excitement, as they suddenly charging towards Inigo. "Daddy, daddy !"
"Ahhhh help !" Inigo suddenly buried under a swarm of Lumas.
Inigo soon managed to get out and begin running away, however the Lumas continue chasing him.
"Polari you're doing this on prupise do you ?" Rosalina crossed her arm.
"You don't deserve him, there are much better suitor for you, maybe there's an immortal man for you out there." Said Polari.
"Come on you know I'm not gonna say yes to him if he really going to ask me out, besides I'm not in a hurry in looking for a relationship, I have eternity to think about that." Rosalina give off a smile to her companion.
Training Room
"Hiyah ! Hyaa !" Copper is sparring with Wolf with him using a bo staff, and Wolf borrowing a sword from the storage room.
Copper deal with the finishing blow as he swing his staff toward Wolf face, but he ducked, drop his sword, he then lunged at Copper, grabbed his neck and pin him down to the ground. "You lose, but admittedly not bad you really able to keep me on my toes." Wolf let go of his hand as he pull Copper back up.
"Thank you, I may not look it, but training at police academy is quite rigorous, I know these day would come, but now that it has I realize I'm not strong enough to do it." Lamented Copper.
"The what ? Using lethal force ? I guess you never kill anyone before ?" Asked Wolf.
"No I haven't, none of the people in my jurisdiction has committed crime notorious enough to justify lethal force, the only crime I've dealt with is having to deal with Crazy Redd selling forged art pieces." Explained Copper. "I need to get stronger now that forgery isn't the only crime I have to deal with."
"I get what you're trying to do, but you do realize by teaming up with us you already violated several police protocols, technically speaking we are vigilantes." Snake then stepped at the two anthropomorphic canines.
"I know, doing this really makes , but if it to be able to protect the citizens I can't let myself be constrained by the rules." Answered Copper.
"I like how you think, should you get fired from your job as a police, Star Wolf is open for one more position." Wolf seemed try to lure Copper to the gray side.
"No offense, but being a mercenary is not what I have in mind." Copper politely refused.
Now Isabelle visited the training room. "Hello Copper how are you feeling ? Getting used to all this yet ?"
"I'm adjusting, although I admit I'm still rather conflicted about breaking many police protocols, but I believe this is the best way to help more people." Answered Copper.
"I need to remind you, you may need to have the will to kill, our enemies isn't someone or something a prison can contain." Said Wolf.
"I'm aware of that, when I saw Isabelle fighting those lizard folks, I can only freeze in fear, that's not how police supposed to act, he should be the ones fighting so that civilians don't have to." Explain Copper.
"That's understandable in normal circumstances, but what Isabelle involved in is already outside police procedure, this is universe spanning evil organization, sure they may have no authority in many places, but it doesn't matter as they can go anywhere and wreak havoc wherever they like." Replied Snake.
"You're right, I need to stop moping and accept the fact that this is reality now, I can't serve the people by being weak and doubtful, I believe I made the right choice." Copper seems to found his resolve.
"I'm glad you seem to found a breakthrough, though I'm surprised Booker happily accept your decision for a leave of absence." Stated Isabelle.
"Umm...yeah..."
Flashback
Police Station
"NOOOOOO ! PLEASE DONT GO ! YOU CANT LEAVE ME ALL ALONE LIKE THIS !" Booker cling on Copper's leg, forbidding him to go struggled to move.
Flashback ended
Trainjng Room
"Yeah he's taken it well, he knows he needs to grow and stand on his two feet without me." Copper lied to the heroes. "I think we've talked enough, let's continue with training, I think it's firearms training next." Wolf, Snake, and Copper then head to the shooting range to start.
Back Garden
Inigo ran all the way to the back garden of the mansion catching his breath. "Phew I think I lost those Lumas, honestly why do I have to go through it alone ? Everyone is such a training freak, can't they slow down and enjoy life a bit...huh ? Isn't that ?"
"Even after all this time the garden is still as beautiful as ever, did Master Hand took great care of this place or they really never wilt ?" (TP)Zelda took her time to enjoy the beautiful Smash Mansion garden.
As she turned around she saw Inigo standing behind her. "Inigo ! You surprised me."
"Sorry about that princess, I was...walking around the garden and I happened to see you here." Said Inigo playing it smooth hiding the fact that he ran all the way here.
"Well I didn't expect to see you, I kinda thought you'd be training with your friends." Replied (TP)Zelda.
"I did train yesterday, but my friends are such workaholic they can't slow down to take a one day off." Complained Inigo.
"Mmm...true people should be able to balance their work and play time." (TP)Zelda agreeing with Inigo.
"Exactly ! I see you get it princess, if only my friends can learn a thing or two from you." Inigo smiled and crossed his arms. "You know this garden is sure is beautiful, but there's someone more beautiful standing in front of me."
"Inigo ? Are you...flirting with me ?" Asked (TP)Zelda.
"I won't say flirting, however I do wished for us to maybe get to know each other more, what do you say ?" Inigo begin to make his move on (TP)Zelda.
Before (TP)Zelda can reply Inigo felt what's it like a tip of a sword touching the back of his head.
"Step...away...from...my...soulmate." (TP)Link speak in a calm, but very threatening tone.
Inigo begin to dropping cold sweat as he knows if he wants to live he got to stop now. "Okay I see you already have plans, I'll be on my way now !" Inigo then run away in fear, afraid (TP)Link might going to kill him.
"Hopefully he learn his lesson not to make a move on my woman." (TP)Link unsheathed his sword and turned his head to (TP)Zelda. "Okay Zelda I got us the tea and snacks."
"Okay we can finally have that tea time now." (TP)Link and (TP)Zelda head to the gazebo as they prepare for their date. "Honestly I think it's the first time I see you jealous."
"That's because no one is trying to hit on you back in Hyrule, but if Inigo tries this again I'll trophify him and drop him to the bottom of the ocean."
"Link, that's taking things too far, while I'm not happy if another woman make a move on you, I..." (TP)Zelda then draw a blank as she don't know how to finish that sentence.
"Admit it, you'd do the same thing I did." (TP)Link smirked.
"Maybe, then agai I doubt people like this will back off with a simple no, anyway, let's just enjoy ourselves for now." The couple then enjoying their date.
Somewhere in the garden...
"Aw man, that Link sure exude such murderous aura, then again it was wrong of me to make a move on taken woman." Inigo contemplating to himself.
"Inigo is that you ?" A female voice call out to him, as Inigo looked that voice turns out to be Lucina's, however as Inigo looked at her he is shocked to see what she's wearing. Lucina wearing a white sleeveless one piece dress which the lower part only cover half her thigh, and she wear a white high heel shoes to match her dress.
Inigo is so speechless seeing Lucina in this outfit he completely force as he's mesmerized by her beauty.
"Inigo are you okay ?" Lucina walked closer as Inigo finally come to his senses.
"O-oh yeah ! I'm totally fine ! So umm...how was your training with Jade !?" Inigo tried desperately to avoid commenting on the dress.
"Oh lessons over a few minutes ago, what are you doing here ?" Asked Lucina.
"Oh w-well i..." Inigo dripping with sweat as he's very nervous. "I'm admiring the garden ! The garden here is beautiful don't you think !?"
"It certainly is, I think it's more beautiful than the last time I came here." Lucina agreed with Inigo.
She then picked one of the flowers, a white flower and put it on her hair, so uh Inigo, what do you think ? Does this looks good on me ?"
Inigo's face turned red as a tomato as only gibberish coming out from his mouth.
"What's that ? I didn't quite catch that, let me come closer." Lucina walked slowly towards Inigo.
"No ! Stop !" Inigo suddenly burst as he told Lucina to stay.
"Something wrong...wait I knew it I look weird in this dress am I ?" Lucina misunderstand as she felt dejected.
"Wait ! No ! You look great ! Wait...I mean !" Inigo can only dig himself deeper now.
"My parallel self never got to enjoy being a princess because Grima attacked the halidom, so at least I wanted to try out nice clothes, one she never got to enjoy to honor her memory, I guess it doesn't look good on me huh ?"
"Lucina stop that ! You look great ! I mean..." Inigo tried to cheer her up.
"Really ? I look great in this ?" Lucina sounded happy as she walked closer to Inigo as once she got close Inigo ended up staring at her cleavage.
"Y-yes...a-and u-uh...I-i got to go !" Inigo realizing his 'little guy's is getting hard decided to make another mad dash away from Lucina.
Lucina can only stare at what just happened. "Should I count this as a failure then ?"
Jade then emerged from the bushes, hiding and watching what just transpired. "No, on the contrary I believe you pass."
"Why am I doing this again ?" Lucina stared at Jade.
Flashback...
Training Room, different than the ones used by Copper
"Hiyah ! Haah !" Lucina and Jade sparring intensely as Lucina dish out perfectly executed lunch and kicks, her movements is so precise and elegant there aren't any wasted movement.
"Good that's it, leave no opening for the enemy !" Lucina manged to grabbed Jade's arm and slammed her to the ground. "I did it."
"Yep, you did, you're a fast learner Lucina." Jade got up and congratulate her student.
"Well I got a great master." Replied Lucina humbly.
"Well, I believe you're ready for the next lesson."
"No matter how difficult it is I won't back down." Lucina stated clearly.
"Good, because this lesson will be different than your previous lessons, I'm going to teach you seduction." Jade winked at the mention of this word.
Lucina is caught by surprise as she did not expect this at all. "S-seduction !? Oh I get it this must be a joke right ?"
"No, I'm very serious, Lucina I'm sure you realize victory isn't just achieved by slaying the enemy, but converting enemy to your side can also one way to achieve victory." Explained Jade.
"Well yes, I'm aware of that, but...seduction, I'm not sure I have what it takes."
"Lucina didn't you say earlier you won't back down no mater how difficult my lesson is." Jade using Lucina's words back at her.
"I know I said that, but..."
"Look, you're a beautiful girl, it shouldn't be hard for you to make men grovel at your feet." Jade encouraging Lucina.
"Not sure I'm gonna take it that far, but even if I'm doing this, I can't just flirt left and right, many of the people here know me, well parallel me, not to mention my parents are here too, and flirting isn't something she not I would do, I would be completely out of character." Explained Lucina.
"I see, a sudden change in personality will make people suspicious, which would defeat the purpose of seduction, but there's another way to do it, it's called seduction using obliviousness, I'll explain how it goes."
Flasback ended...
Back Garden
"And that's why I have you shower and use perfume after training, and you have a good eye picking that dress, did you buy it before the store is thrashed ? Well anyway by making him think you're hitting on him you'll have him wrapped around your finger." Explained Jade.
"Yes, I buy this dress, well parallel me before HMS store is thrashed by sage Gotoh, by the way miss Jade, have you ever seduce your enemies before ?" Asked Lucina.
"Sometimes, although I'm using it on monsters most of the time, and when it work they refused to attack us which makes them ripe for beatings." Explained Jade.
"I guess that's one way to win, although I do feel bad for tricking Inigo like this." Lucina felt a .
"You can tell him what you want, but just don't tell him you're taking seduction lessons, I intended for this lesson to be a secret." Said Jade.
"Yeah, thank you for your lesson, I'll be sure to put this to good use." Lucina thanked Jade.
"Don't worry about consequences, as long people's hearts in the right place despite being recruited by seduction, they will sooner or later will fighting for the right thing." Assured Jade.
"That's good to know." Smiled Lucina. "Hold on, then again Lord Marth once said Queen Caeda was responsible for several people joining Lord Marth's army, and none of those men seemed to have any issues with Caeda and Marth ended up together."
"See, that proves their heart in the right place, just be careful, seducing people carelessly will backfire in the worst way possible."
"I'll keep that in mind." Lucina and Jade then head back inside the mansion.
"And now by creating this web of magic, you can restrain enemies without needing to kill them." Taranza demonstratong his web magic.
"Like this ?" Laurent able to create one.
"Yes Laurent very good." Prissed Taranza.
"What about mine ?" Brady also able to create the web.
"You've done well Brady, you two are such gifted sorcerers." Taranza complimented his pupils.
"Thanks, but it's more thanks to our parallel self experience that we're able to learn quickly." Said Laurent.
"Well those experience are yours now, so don't act like you don't deserve it, you need to harness it and make it your own." Advices Taranza.
"Y-yeah, I want to grow even more." Said Brady.
"Good, that's what I like to hear, now unto our next lesson." Before Taranza can begin Inigo is running and ended up crashing into Brady, Brady ended up getting sucked inside his magic web.
"What the ! I'm trapped ! Inigo what's the big idea !" Brady yelled at Inigo for accidentally trapping him inside his own magic as Inigo stand up again.
"Okay calm down, now Brady, my next lesson is to dispel your magic, sometimes magic can be dangerous to the user, either the enemy can reflect it back at you or a spell gone haywire, I'm going to teach you to undo your magic, now calm down and concentrate, and unleash !"
Brady did what Taranza said and the magic web disappear.
"I'm free !" Brady exclaimed in relief. "Now you better get ready for what's coming for you Inigo !"
"Hold on Brady, don't get hasty, Inigo why are you running around the garden ? Is it for training purposes." Laurent crossed his arms.
"Look I'm sorry I bumped into you okay, it's just...it's Lucina !" Exclaimed Inigo.
"Lucina ? What about her ?" Asked Laurent.
"I think she's trying to seduce me." Hearing Inigo's answer both Brady and Laurent paused for a few seconds, and suddenly the two of them burst into laughter, yes the serious Laurent and shy Brady laugh out loud
"Hahahahahahahaha ! Lucina...is seducing ... you !? Hahahaha !" Laurent laugh so much.
"Look I'm serious ! I know it seems hard to believe, but that's what she's doing !" Insisted Inigo.
"Hahaha...okay if you insist, then tell us from the beginning." Laurent and Brady finally stopped laughing as Inigo told them what happened.
"And that's why I run away from her." Inigo finished telling his story.
"Yeah I doubt Lucina is trying to flirt, and to you of all people, all she ask seems to be innocent questions." Said Laurent.
"Maybe you're desperate to have a girlfriend so much you ended up mistaking her actions of flirting." Added Brady.
"Okay first of all I'm not desperate, but maybe I am overthinking things." Inigo scratching his head.
"Look, if your lonely we'll hang out with you okay, just sit still, our lesson is almost over." Said Laurent as Inigo agreed and waited until Brady and Laurent is finished.
Auditorium
"Such magnificent stage ! We can use it to throw a performance !" Sylvando is awed looking at the stage.
"I remember when I perform with Indigo-Go after I finished my mission in Termina." Said Young Link. "It was a band and I got to be the guitarist, it was awesome."
"The Aether Resort also have singing and dancing in Askr, when Azura takes the stage, she really captivate everyone with her graceful movements." Explained Corrin.
"Azure is your cousin right ? Oh how I would love to see her dance, the way you describe it really gets my imagination going !" Exclaimed Sylvando with excitement.
"I'll be sure to introduce you two, I'd like to see what you two will come up with." Smiled Corrin.
Foyer
Loud barking noise can be heard from the foyer, Peepers and Rush is seen barking at each other.
"This has a-been going on since yesterday !" Complained Wario.
"I thought having another dog, Peepers could have a friend, but guess that isn't happening." Lamented Mega Man.
"I'll say, Peepers being a-territorial, I should know, I would be too if my money is in danger." Commented Wario.
"Rush isn't here to replace Peepers." Insisted Mega Man.
"Sure Mega, do you really forget what happened yesterday ?"
Flashback...
Shortly after Samus left the mansion...
"Okay Rush, this is where we staying now, considering the size of this place I guess Rush won't see Kitty too often." Pondered Mega Man.
"Oh you're back Mega." Popo greeted the robot as he and Nana entered the foyer with Peepers.
"Oh hi you two, right let me introduce you, this is my pet dog Rush, Rush this is Popo, Nana, and Peepers and Duck." Mega Man introduce Rush to his companions.
"So that's Rush ? The dog you kept talking about ?" Asked Nana.
"Awesome ! A robot dog ! Mac said it can shape shift ! Is that true !?" Exclaimed Popo.
"Yes, Rush please demonstrate." Rush transform into his hoverboard form, submarine form, etc. Popo and Nana is amazed by what they see.
Peepers feeling jealous as the ice climbers attention shifted to Rush.
Flashback ended..
"Everyone else ended up clamoring over Rush, and a-forgetting Peepers in process." Said Wario.
"Right, we ended up having to apologize to Peepers yesterday." Mega Man felt bad. "Peepers really wreaking havoc yesterday, with the exploding cans and the invisible bullets and so on..."
"I know, Link had to transform into his wolf form and speak to Peepers, turns out it's jealous and doesn't want to be replaced by Rush." Claimed Wario.
"Can't believe Peepers immediately assumed Rush going to steal it's spot in Smash." Mega Man is in disbelief.
"I may have a way to solve this problem." Wario said to Mega Man with the blue robot is skeptical.
"I know I'm going to regret asking, but what's your idea ?" Asked Mega Man.
"How much is Rush ?" Wario turns out want to buy Rush.
"Rush isn't for sale, just give up, I'm not selling it no matter how much you pay me." Mega Man refuse to sell Rush.
"Fine, your loss Mega Man, come on Peepers, stop fighting, your barking is starting to bother people." Wario walked Peepers away from the foyer. "If you a-want to compete, I need to teach you the value of gold."
"Well that backfired, and I thought there would be peace and quiet since Tango isn't here, I don't think Rush is going to replace Peepers to fight in Smash though, I guess even dogs can be jealous like humans do."
Ganondorf's Room
After R.O.B showing the professors all around the mansion, Ganondorf brought them to his room to tell the professors why R.O.B is the only one around. "And because of that, R.O.B is the last of his kind, not making excuses, if you want me dead then so be it, but at least save it until all of this is over."
"What ! You caused all that damages and you expect us to ! To !..."
"Vector calm down !" Prof Hector shut his assistant, and continue talking to Ganondorf. "You said they're swallowed by the Subspace bomb correct ? Then won't that mean they got sucked into Subspace ?"
"Yes, but Subspace is a vast world, they all could be anywhere." Explained Ganondorf.
"Nevertheless it's still an option, we could find them there." Said Prof. Hector.
"Professor ! Are you really letting him off the hook like that !?" Yelled Prof. Vector.
"We should try to give people a second chance, especially when they truly regret their wrongdoing, although the evil incarnate thing hasn't wrapped around my head."
"I agree with Prof. Hector as well, if Ganondorf didn't come with us, we may be unable to retrieve your souls." R.O.B vouched for Ganondorf.
"See, even R.O.B choose to forgive him." Pointed Prof. Hector.
"Alright I relent, look I may be able to be civil to you, but I still haven't forgiven you for what you did !" Prof. Vector pointed at Ganondorf and leave his room.
"He's always...the hotheaded type, don't let it get to you." Assured Prof. Hector.
"It's fine, it's natural for him not to forgive me right away, then I guess my next goal is to find the other ROBS in Subspace then, I promise you I will succeed." Ganondorf make a vow to R.O.B and Prof. Hector that he will save the remaining ROBS.
Balcony
Robin is having a quality time with his family, right now he's at the mansion balcony, there's an umbrella table in the balcony where they sit.
"It's nice that we can spend time together like this." Said Robin.
"This is a huge mansion, even bigger than Plegia's Castle." Commented Aversa.
"Are you sure you won't move to Ylisse ? I'm sure Chrom and everyone else has forgiven you already ?" Asked Robin.
"I suppose, maybe once all this is over, the village got attacked by Risens, so I wonder if it's wise to leave now ?" Pondered Aversa.
"You were only attacked because Grima after Morgan, well our Morgan." Clarified Robin.
"Are we gonna save her father ?" Asked Morgan.
"Of course we are, and then we will send that Morgan back to her universe." Answered Robin. "Anyway Morgan how are you adjusting here ? I'm sorry because of this we have to dragged you away from home."
"I'm fine, I'm making a lot of friends here, especially the friends I made from another world, they have so much stuff we don't have !" Exclaimed Morgan. "Nana give me this sweets called crepes, and it tastes amazing !"
"Well I'm glad you enjoying yourself here, so anyway we're going to continue with our studies after this, because unlike the other kids who inherit their abilities from their parallel selves, you didn't get those since you came from a different timeline, so you just magically grew up." Said Robin.
"I know, and I'm ready, so please give me everything you got, I will strive to succeed." Morgan is full of spirits.
"She really did inherit your thirst for knowledge." Aversa let's out a chuckle.
"Haha, i'm glad you're so enthusiastic Morgan." Robin then continues having a chatter with his family, making the most of his time while they're able to be together.
Soon after a portal formed in the sky and Samus Gunship emerge from the portal.
Robin notices this and contacted everyone using his golden plate. "Everyone, Samus is back."
Garage
Falco who is working on maintenance on his Arwing also receive Robin's message, he moved away from the ship. "Well guess I'm the one who have to opened the hangar door." Falco pressed a button on the wall, opening the ceiling of the underground garage.
Samus sees this and slowly descend the to the underground garage, as she successfully land, the ceiling closes again.
Samus opened her ship hatch and walked out from her ship.
"Welcome back Samus, guess you did what you need to do ?" Asked Falco.
"It's good to be back Falco, and I did, can't wait for a nice, relaxing bath." Samus then dematerialize her armor as she head to the mansion spa room.
On the way there Snake went to greet Samus, running all the way from the firing range. "Welcome back Samus, you must be tired, let me help you carry your stuff."
"Thank you ? But I'm not carrying anything." Samus appreciate and also dumbfounded by Snake's gesture.
"Oh right, well if you need me you can just contact me." Snake then make a mad dash to stop making things more awkward.
"Snake can be weird sometimes." Said Samus as she continue walking.
Master Hand's Room
Gaius is sneaking around Master Hand's room to find any valuable, but his search prove fruitless.
"Aw man, for a fancy mansion there really isn't anything valuable." Gaius voiced his disappointment.
"Oh ? Is that why you're here ?" Gaius turned around to the source of that voice only to find Erik behind him.
"Oh it's you, Erik right ? You're not gonna snitch on me do you ?" Asked Gaius.
"Considering you didn't manage to steal anything I guess I don't have to." Answered Erik.
"Well you caught me, so what are you doing here ?" Asked Gaius.
"Exploring the place, I saw you walking around here so I pretty much follow you, hoping you're not doing anything stupid, or dangerous." Replied Erik.
"Fine I suppose what I'm trying to do counted as both, what about you ? I heard you're a thief too, surely you would be curious if this mansion have any valuables." Gaius making a winking signal.
"Sorry, I only stole from those who deserve it, I don't think the owner of this mansion is one of those kind of people." Said Erik.
"Well since you put it that way guess I should stop what I'm doing as well, maybe I can keep myself occupied by enjoying the facilities this mansion offers, or i could keep Inigo from flirting left and right."
"Yeah, your son really said the wrong thing to Veronica yesterday, he's really covered in soot from being attacked by fire magic." Commented Erik.
"I know, I should try to spend more time with him, chances like this isn't gonna come again in a short time, and I better learn to curb this bad habit." Gaius and Erik left Master Hand's room.
Monster Sanctuary
Link and Zelda is in the farm area with Sumia and Cynthia.
"So you want us to teach you about riding a pegasus ?" Asked Sumia.
"Yes please, if that's alright with you." Said Zelda.
"Oh it's fine, I'm happy to help, you know I usually don't allow men to ride pegasus, but since they no longer hostile to men, I can teach you, but why the interest in riding pegasus ?"
"Well you see, we don't have any pegasus in Hyrule." Answered Zelda.
"And yet my predecessors have equipments called pegasus boots, I wonder where that word came from ?" Pondered Link.
"That's because pegasus considered a mythical creature in Hyrule." Answered Zelda.
"Oh are they ? That would explain how the pegasus boots got it name, although it seems they're also a mythical creature in Mac's world as well, I remember his jaw dropped when he saw a pegasus for the first time." Link let's out a small laugh.
"The same can be said to Doc Louis when Mac brought him here the other day." Zelda also let's out a chuckle.
"Ahem, so back to topic at hand, having a flying ride would be beneficial, we can easily bypass land obstacles and hostile terrains." Answered Link. "If more people can ride a pegasus it would increase the number of our aerial forces."
"Well you have a point there, alright I will show you the basics, Cynthia you can help me teach if you want." Sumia looked at her daughter.
"Really !? I can !? Of course with me on the job I can make Link and Zelda will be an expert in no time !" Cynthia respond enthusiastically.
"Then let's begin." Sumia begin instructing Link and Zelda about riding a pegasus.
Gym
Stephen is supervising Hendrik, Stahl, Gregor and Lon'qu during their workout session, of course all of them not using their armor, Stahl and Hendrik wearing a dark blue tank top and shorts pants, while Lon'qu and Gregor wore casual shirts.
"Okay Gregor, one more push." Gregor lift the barbell one more time before resting it on the bench, he wanted and sweated a lot after lifting that heavy object 100 times, he then got up and sit on the bench.
"Gregor never this exhausted before, this modern workout equipment is nothing like Gregor ever seen before." Commented Gregor.
"Yeah it's completely different than the training we used to." Stahl is wiping his sweat with a towel.
"Regardless of methods, if it will make me stronger I will take it." Said Lon'qu.
"So this is what the people of future use to strengthening themselves, it is very different than what I used to." Commented Hendrik.
"Well techniques and methods do evolve over time, anyway all of you seems to be well built, I wonder if you'll teach me your medieval style exercise ?"
"We could, but our training is more brutal than this, we have to lift rocks for our weightlifting." Answered Stahl.
"This equipment is lifting metals so maybe I can do it too ?" Pondered Stephen.
"Okay maybe next time." Replied Stahl.
"Gregor was confused when Stephen says a personal trainer, how do Stephen do job ?" Asked Gregor.
"A personal trainer, like the name implies, a client need to hire you and you monitor their exercise, diets, making sure the client exercise is successful and so on." Answered Stephen.
"Your instructions are easy to understand, and you seem to have keen observation as well." Hendrik complimented Stephen.
"Thanks, after working so long you obviously going to build experience." Replied Stephen.
Soon after Otacon showed up in the gym.
"Oh you're Hal right ? Snake's friend ?" Asked Stephen.
"Yes, so you're supervising their workout ?" Otacon noticed the four men behind Stephen.
"Yeah, since it's their first time using modern exercise equipment I have to show them the ropes." Explained Stephen.
"I see, you seem to do your job well." Said Otacon. "Of course you don't mind I'm saying you must've got a lot of clients, how many of them you score ?"
"Score ? I'm not sure what are you..." Stephen then realized what Otacon meant. "Okay I'm gonna have to stop you there, I kept my relationship with my clients strictly professional, I never slept with any of them."
"Oh really ? Right I'm sorry, I guess i ended up stereotyping personal trainers." Otacon apologize to Stephen.
"It's fine I won't deny there's a lot of personal trainers like that, if anything they make the honest one like a bad name, but I assure you I'm not like that, the ones who are like that on the other hand always gets in trouble with their clients, bringing drama to workplace and they ended up being fired, any colleagues of mine who bragged about sleeping with his clients sooner or later gets fired after well...relationship gone awry." Explained Stephen. "Well while I don't deny there are clients flirting with me I always turned down their advances."
"What is he talking about ?" Asked Lon'qu.
"You see there's this negative stereotype about personal trainers." Stephen explain what he's talking about.
"I see, look I trust you Stephen, but if anyone come after my wife, I believe it's obvious what would happen." Threatened Lon'qu, and the other guys felt the same, while Stahl and Gregor wearing a smilng expression, it's clear bloodlust is what lies behind that smiles..
"Don't worry, I know better than lay my hands on a married women, especially when their husbands know how to fight...and kill." Stephen replied sheepishly.
Somewhere else in the gym Panne and her son Yarne is sparring with each other, they're training in a boxing ring located in the middle of the gym.
Panne managed to block her son's attacks, but Yarne relentlessly attacking until he managed to land a hit on Panne.
"Well done, you're amazing my child." Panne complimented her son.
"Oh yeah ! I did it, I know nothing can stop me now !" Exclaimed Yarne.
"You really showed courage, not like your parallel self." Commented Panne.
"Well in this world you don't die right ? I can always be revived over and over again if I fall." Turns out Yarne's newfound courage is because World of Trophy trophification effect.
"Right, but that's still no excuse to be careless, I just hope your newfound courage won't be a burden as much as it is a blessing, just because no one can die in this world." Panne lectured her son.
"Okay okay I get it, I'll try to tempered my excitement." Replied Yarne.
Not long after a voice can be heard from the mansion PA system. "Your attention please, everyone please come to the mansion conference room, there's something important to discuss."
"Isn't that Tails voice ?" Asked Stephen.
"Maybe the talking fox have something to say." Said Gregor.
"I have to say if people told me they saw talking animals I wouldn't believe it, and yet here they are right in front of us." Commented Stahl.
"Nowi, Nah, Panne, and Yarne can speak in their animal form, but they don't count as actual animal." Added Lon'qu.
"Right, we don't encounter anyone like that even in Askr, we met shapeshifters but not actual talking animals, really shows you how vast the universe can be." Continued Stahl.
"Well he wants everyone to be there so, let's get to it, it could be a mission briefing, I think all of you need to take a quick shower first, or else people gonna complain about your body odor." The guys sniffed themselves and decided it's best to wash themselves first.
Conferemce Room
Slowly, but surely people begin coming in to the conference room where Tails have been waiting. The room becoming more crowded with people.
"Thank you all for coming." Greeted Tails.
"Didn't expect you to call us here, so what you got Tails ?" Asked Sonic as he take a seat.
"While I know some of you already know what you want to do next, I already prepare another mission to fulfill, and that mission is to collect both the Chaos Emeralds and the Beanstar pieces." Explained Tails as everyone is talking amongste themselves.
"The Beanstar can a-grant wishes, while Chaos Emeralds possess powers beyond a-belief." Stated Mario.
"Exactly, and it's obvious our enemies possess more manpower than us, so it won't be out of the question if they already begin looking for Chaos Emeralds and the Beanstar." Continued Tails.
"We can't let them have it, if the bad guys got their hands on a wish granting device there's no telling what kind of chaos they will unleash !" Exclaimed Peach.
"That much is clear, which is why I already working on a way to track the objects." Said Tails as the heroes voiced their surprise.
"Sonic found the Beanstar by luck, but we can't keep relying on luck, so with my Chaos Emerald detector I manage to modify it to be able to locate the Beanstar." Continued Tails.
"That's great Tails, but the Chaos Emerald detector can only locate so far, I mean the Beanstar and the Chaos Emeralds were found in another world, I don't think the detector can reach that far." Commented Sonic.
"I know, which is why I integrate the detector with the computer in the Mansion's Archive Room." Answered Tails. "While I was wondering on how to do it, Luigi told me about the Archive Room at the basement."
"Archive Room ?" Asked Richter.
"Oh yeah, Master Hand have a-this room that contains database from throughout the universe." Answered Luigi. "That's a-how he knows so much about a-us."
"And by integrating my detector with the master computer I managed to broaden my scope that encompass the universe." Answered Tails.
"So did a-you find the locations ?".Asked Mario.
"I certainly did, for the Beanstar I managed to find the remaining pieces, one is on Earth, specifically in a location knows as Southtown." Tails pulls out a remote and pressed one of the buttons, a large screen monitor slowly descends and presenting a picture of a map.
"Southtown !? That's in America !" Exclaimed Mac.
Tails then zoomed in on the location, the location of the Beanstar is located on an island near Southtown.
"That island ? Isn't that where Geese Tower is located ?" Asked Chelsea.
"That Geese Tower ! I don't think we can get in that easily." Point out Stephen.
"We still have to try, it's a wish granting object for starters, it cannot fall to the wrong hands." Continued Tails.
"Okay Tails where's the next piece ?" Asked lady Lima.
"Right, see another one is in a location called Alrest." Tails pressed another button and changed the picture.
"Did you say Alrest !" Exclaimed Shulk as he got up from his seat in shock.
"Yes, do you know about it Shulk ?" Asked Tails.
"Well it's complicated, let's just say it involves a Nopon Archsage, and while I never physically been there, I uh spiritually there...? I'm sorry I know what I said doesn't make sense, but I'm familiar with the geography."
"Then can we count on you to go there ?" Asked Link.
"Sorry, but I need to go with Corrin to return the Telethia back to Alcamoth, however my uhh...girlfriend Fiora may be able to help, she knows Alrest just like I do." Shulk's face turns red for a bit.
"You know Shulk, we can visit your girlfriend first then we can head to Alcamoth after." Suggested Corrin.
"Yeah, that would be for the best." Shulk agreed with Corrin.
"Okay Tails, where's the last piece of the Beanstar ?" Asked Lady Lima again.
"Yeah, that's the thing it's hard to describe but, the world it landed is somehow made of blocks ?"
"Blocks ?" Asked Marth confused.
"You're just have to see it for yourself, that's all I can say." Answered Tails.
"Okay so that's the Beanstar's location, what about Chaos Emeralds ?" Asked Sonic.
"Unfortunately thanks to the unpredictability of Chaos Emeralds their location continuously changing, however this is their current locations." Tails pressed the remote button and the picture changed again.
"One of the Emeralds appear in a continent called Fodlan." Said Tails.
"Wait ! Fodlan !" Excliamed Roy, this time is him that got up from his seat.
"Yes, you know the location too ?" Asked Tails.
"Well no, but when I got sent to Askr we met several people from Fodlan, if this is the same Fodlan that I think we may encounter them again." Answered Roy.
"So which Byleth do you think we're going to meet in Fodlan ?" Asked Ike curiously.
"What do you mean by that ?" Asked Snake confused.
"When we went to Askr we ended up meeting people from alternate universe, for example turns out there's a reality where Robin born as a girl." Explained Roy.
"Really ? A female Robin !?" Snaked voiced his surprise.
"I was surprised as well, turns out there's another universe where I was born female." Added Robin.
"And yet both Robins still meant to be Grima's vessel." Said Lucina.
"Unfortunately, there's even another alternate me where Grima succeeded in possessing me and female me." Revealed Robin.
"Obviously, it's very confusing we don't even know who came from where, while there are no female version of me, there are several Marth summoned to Askr from different point of time, one during my war against Hardin, one after uniting the continent and so on." Explained Marth.
"And don't forget our alternate selves that was summoned during festival seasons, my friend Wolt got summoned wearing a swimsuit, turns out he's not the same Wolt from my world." Said Roy.
"Wow, I don't know what to say from all that, meeting your alternate, future or past selves in one place ?" Chelsea felt overwhelmed hearing those stories.
"I've also heard there's a child version of me summoned, but I don't get to meet him." Continued Marth.
"Won't that going to change history or something !?" Excliamed Chelsea.
"Not everyone met their alternate selves in Askr, not to mention our enemies got summoned as well, and they usually only showed up when needed, after that who knows where they gone, they never bother socialize with others." Continued Marth.
"Ahem off topic, where's the rest Tails ?" Asked Sonic.
"Right, unfortunately I only managed to find three more, the others recently teleported and they haven't manifested yet." Answered Tails.
"One Emerald is in Japan, the capital city Tokyo to be precise." Answered Tails chaing the picture with the remote again.
"Japan !? And I just went there, guess we're going back there aren't we Ryu ?" Ken put his arm on Ryu's shoulder.
"Well it's nice to be home again." Said Ryu.
"Next is well, Earth again and in China." Answered Tails changing the picture with the remote again.
"China ? Does anyone here speak mandarin ?" Asked Doc Louis, but no one from Earth raised their hands.
"The golden plate can automatically translate for us." Answered Pit.
"Which brings us the last location, a place called Northern Kremisphere." Tails pressed the button and the picture changed again.
"Northern Kremisphere ? That's near our home !" Exclaimed DK.
"Well who goes where is what you need to decide yourself, I'll keep us updated should there be any changes, well that is all from me." Tails turned off the monitor as the tv screen rise up again.
"Everyone I'd like to say something !" Red raised his hand and gets everyone attention. "I wanted to say that I managed to get the Sacred Ash, and also Mesprit, please show yourself." Mesprit showed itself, making itself visible. "This is Mesprit, one of Arceus children, Mesprit and it's siblings Uxie and Azelf will help us on our quest."
"Having a legendary Pokemon on our side is like having a strength of a thousand men." Boasted Blue.
"Really ? This creature doesn't look so tough !" Exclaimed Bowser.
"Watch it Bowser, Mesprit is the embodiment of emotions itself, it could take away your feelings for Princess Peach for good." Green is threatening Bowser.
"What ! It can take away my love for Peach ! But if I don't like Peach anymore than I won't have a reason to kidnap Peach anymore !" Bowser acted like he suffers from existential crisis.
"Okay so, here is the Sacred Ash." Red pull out the Sacred Ash from his bag and placed it in the table, "all we need is to sprinkle this on our target and they will be resurrected, we only got one shot, does anyone know who should we use this on ? It has to be unanimous." Red looked around at his teammates and they all seemed to be already decided on one person.
"Alright then, we have to get Captain Falcon back from their clutches." Red then put the Sacred Ash back to his bag. "The next problem is how to revive the others after we used this Sacred Ash.
Rab begin talking. "Well laddie, you don't have to worry about that, we have a magic spell called Kazing, it's a spell to resurrect the dead."
"Really ? If you have the power to revive the dead then..."
Serena interjects. "There's still a limit, usually Kazing can only worked on people approved by deities, so not just anyone can be revived."
Palutena then appeared as a projection. "The deities makes an exception because of the dire situations, the Kazing spell can be used on the Warriors of Fallen Stars, however the have someone from your world such as Alizarin, he knows what you're capable of so be sure the enemy will come up with countermeasure."
"We have a spell to weaken magic resistance, but yeah we still need to be prepared as well." Said Veronica.
("The ash...get it")
"Huh ? Did you say something ?" Taranza asked Kirby said something to him.
"No, I didn't say anything." Answered Kirby.
"Must be my imagination then ?" Pondered Taranza.
This time Samus turn to spoke. "Everyone, as you can see I'm back from my mission, however after that, I receive this message from the Galactic Federation."
"Welcome back Samus, how'd your mission go ?" Asked Young Link.
"A lot happened, and I ended up destroying another planet, but that's besides the point, after I left planet ZBR someone from the Federation contacted me."
Samus grabbed her phone and begin playing the recording.
"Hey Samus...Anthony here, you see I know we've been accusing you and stuff, and I just want to say we're sorry, thanks to Cpt. Falcon we've been purging any corrupt members of the Federation, we want to formally apologize to you, if you can please visit Earth, that's all, Anthony out."
"And that's that, Falcon must've given Anthony the USB device that I gave him." Explained Samus.
"Can we trust him ? What if it's a trap ?" Said (TP)Zelda.
"Anthony is a good friend of mine, but the Federation, I wonder if the enemy got to them first." Pondered Samus.
"The enemy have the Cornerian military under their command, I find it strange they haven't targeted the Federation yet." Commented Fox.
"Could the corrupt members already in cahoots with the enemy ?" Asked Mac.
"It's possible, if that's true all the enemy need to do is just make contact with the corrupt members, there's no need for outright takeover of the entire organization." Continued Samus.
"The corrupt Federation officers could keep their connection a secret and continue working like nothing's going on, even if they got exposed, Neo Subspace Army is already their ticket out of punishment." Added Snake.
"Well Samus if you're unsure, Krystal and I can come with you." Offered Fox.
"Thanks Fox, but this is the Federation, they have jurisdiction over multiple planets and galaxies, I can't involve you in my problems, they're too powerful." Replied Samus. "So I'm going by myself."
"Oh no you're not ! We don't need Earth to be destroyed from your escape attempt !" Exclaimed Fox. "You have a reputation for destroying planets wherever you go."
"Besides, with my psychic powers I can help you navigate a way out and fool the Federation soldiers." Added Krystal. "Besides were not dealing with some alien parasites right."
"Alright, I appreciate your offer, the three of us will go tomorrow." Samus relented and allows Fox and Krystal to go with her.
"If there's nothing else I can say the meetings over." Since no one else spoke the meetings officially over and the heroes dispersed as they head to the door.
"Mewtwo can I talk to you for a bit ?" Red grabbed Mewtwo's shoulder and begin talking.
("So you're saying there's a spy in our midst ?") Asked Mewtwo. ("Are you sure Jupiter isn't messing with you ?")
"I hope she is, but the way she said it makes it like it's true, the fact she's waiting for me pretty much proves it, the only reason I managed to gather the ashes was because Mesprit was sent to help me." Explained Red.
("Very well, I'll try to find out if there's a traitor in our midst.") Mewtwo agreed to Red's request. ("But aren't you exposing yourself too much at the meeting earlier, if there is a mole in our midst then whoever it is will target the Sacred Ash.")
"I know, I did that on purpose and here, I believe this will be safe at your hands." Red give Mewtwo the Sacred Ash.
("I see, I'll be sure to keep it safe.") Mewtwo accepted the Sacred Ash from Red.
Taranza is looking at this exchange from the distance, and then...
("The ash...you can revive Sectonia with that.")
"Haah !" Taranza looking around to see there's no one near him.
"What the ? Am I losing it ?" Taranza then float to the bathroom.
Bathroom
Taranza is at the sink and turn in the water valve, he used his magic to telekinetically gather the water and washed his face with it, but...
("Tonight's your chance..hurry, Sectonia needs you.)
Taranza looking left and right again but found no one, he then looked at the mirror, he saw an image of Sectonia begging for help. "Help me Taranza !"
Taranza is taken aback as he float backward so fast he hit a wall behind him, he wiped his eyes to see just his reflection in the mirror.
"What was that !? What's happening to me ?" Taranza is trying to make sense of what just happened.
("The ash...she needs you, just a sprinkle and Sectonia will be back to you.")
After hearing that strange voice Taranza is starting to think about stealing the Sacred Ash.
Hallway
Chelsea and Stephen sitting on the couch in the hallway, Chelsea showing Stephen a picture of her phone, it's a picture when she's at Delfino Island.
"So you went on an island vacation and I missed it !?" Stephen sounded really disappointed.
"Yeah, didn't think you're getting involved in all this shenanigans." Replied Chelsea. "Anyway coming there really reminds me of our company retreat on Wuhu Island."
"Oh yeah, man it was the best, i know our company is extremely rich, but to think it has its own island too ! When the manager said that's where we're going I didn't believe him." Said Stephen with excitement.
"I remember, and turns out it's true, we got to go to Wuhu Island, there are a lot to do on that island." Said Chelsea.
"You should see me dominate the basketball court, I was on fire !" Excliamed Stephen.
"I'm sure you are, you probably have many girls screaming and cheering at you." Teased Chelsea.
"Yeah, but I was more hoping for you to cheer on me." Muttered Stephen.
"What was that ?" Asked Chelsea as she didn't hear Stephen's words.
"What !? Oh nothing, I didn't say anything, so what else did you do on this Delfino Island ? And you said something about a banana boat service shop ran by raccoons ?" Stephen changed the subject and continue looking at the pictures.
Hojo Residence
Slogra and Gaibon went to Mt. Hikami and headed to Ren Hojo's house, wanting to tell them that they don't need to get involved any further, however what they found isn't what they expect, what they saw was the house was a mess, Soma Cruz has woken up, but his laying down on the floor badly hurt.
"Soma ! What happened !" Slogra and Gaibon rushed towards the injured Soma.
"This house is a mess !? There's a lot of broken stuff, did a fight broke out !?" Gaibon looking around the house.
"You two..are Death minions right ? Asked Soma who is struggling to stand.
"Don't move too much, you're bleeding, Gaibon go find some first aid kit or something !" Ordered Slogra.
Gaibon nodded as he tried to look for some first aid.
"What happened here ? Who did this to you ?" Slogra carried Soma and put him on the couch.
"You really don't know ? Succubus came here and attacked us." Answered Soma.
"Succubus did ? Look, Dracula's Army isn't really united right now." Explained Slogra.
"Why ? Did you have a falling out or something ?" Soma curious with the state of Dracula's Army.
"Something like that, where's Mr. Hojo and Ms. Kagamiya ?" Asked Slogra.
"Not here, Succubus took them, I tried to fend her off, but I failed, she used her power to seduce me and I stopped attacking her, after that she's beating the crap out of me." Explained Soma. "I tried to resist, and fought back, but because I fought back, she choose to retreat and carry Ren and Rui with her."
"Soma, come with us, well take you somewhere safe." Slogra offered his hand.
"Hey, I didn't find any first aid kit anywhere here." Gaibon is back.
"There's no need, we'll take him to the Smash Mansion, that's the safe place to protect Soma from Dracula's Army, or Neo Subspace Army as a whole." Explained Slogra.
"We're bringing Soma to the mansion ?" Asked Gaibon.
"He's not safe here, seeing Soma is injured Succubus could come back with reinforcements, we don't need Lord Dracula to be awakened their way !" Exclaimed Slogra.
"Mansion ? Where are you taking me ?" Asked Soma confused.
"Well that's..." Before Slogra can answer, Succubus return, and she brought Queen Medusa with her.
"Succubus ! Queen Medusa !" Exclaimed Gaibon.
"You two traitors are here ? This is getting better and better by the day." Succubus make a sadistic smile as she's looking forward to punish Slogra and Gaibon.
"We don't have time for you, you're never taking Soma !" Gaibon unleash a stream of fire from his mouth as Succubus use her wings to shield herself and Queen Medusa.
As the flames dissipate, the two female monsters saw Slogra, Gaibon, and Soma disappeared from sight.
Smash Mansion - Lounge
Slogra and Gaibon returned to the mansion with Soma in tow.
"Is Palutena here !?" Exclaimed Slogra.
"Huh ? You two are back ? And who's this ?" Pit pointed at Soma.
Palutena then spoke to Slogra and Gaibon through telepathy. ("I'm here, what is it ? And is that Soma ?") She then appeared in a projection.
"Lady Palutena !? What's going on ?" Pit is shocked Palutena returned so quickly.
"I should ask these two, what happened ?" Palutena asks Slogra and Gaibon.
"Wait ! Where is this !? And is that a goddess and angel ? Are you taking me to Heaven !?" Soma is shocked at what he see.
"Soma calm down, this isn't Heaven, but it's still a safe place nonetheless." Gaibon calming Soma down.
"It's Succubus, she apparently abducted both Mr. Hojo and Ms. Kagamiya !" Exclaimed Slogra.
"It's true, I tried fending her off, but if I go all out I may hurt Hojo and Kagamiya." Soma then tells Palutena what hhappened after.
"I see, well Soma you'll be safe here, we even have two Belmont's here, everyone in this mansion knows how to defend themselves so you'll be in good hands." Palutena smiled assuringly.
"Don't worry, we'll keep you up to speed, let's start by exploring the mansion and introduce you to others while we at it." Slogra and Gaibon dragged Soma around the mansion.
"That was unexpected.." commented Pit.
"He is a candidate to be the next Dracula, now that Death is out of the picture, Carmilla will resort to any means necessary to revive him." Explained Palutena.
"I also find it weird Slogra and Gaibon can adjust themselves well here, considering we were enemies not too long ago." Pit scratching his head.
"You know what they say the enemy of my enemy is my friend, we only have mutual goal that's why." Replied Palutena.
"Like that one time we team up with Viridi and Hades against the Aurum ?" Asked Pit.
"Yeah, like that, it's likely once this is all over Death will become enemies to us again." Sighed Palutena.
"Sad that our cooperation only temporary, anyway hopefully Soma can adjust himself here, I mean he was brought here without notice." Said Pit.
"Oh he'll be fine...I hope."
Time has passed, Soma is introduced to the mansion residents, Mewtwo noticed Taranza following it and acting strangely, Wario teaching Peepers and Duck the value of gold and money, Lucina denies trying to flirt with Inigo, Samus finally enjoy her long bath, all the heroes enjoying their free time until evening falls.
Mewtwo's Room
Night has come and everyone is asleep including Mewtwo, however the door to it's room is opened, and it's Taranza who entered Mewtwo's room.
He used his magic to open and close the door without noise , Taranza is using his magic to try to locate the Sacred Ash, Taranza then found the Sacred Ash, it's placed on the top side of the dresser.
Taranza floated and telekinetically opened the dresser,.he telekinetically brought the Sacred Ash down until it reached his hands, however the ash then suddenly disappeared much to Taranza shock.
("Looking for this ?") Taranza looked behind to see Mewtwo floated behind him holding the Sacred Ash in it's hand.
"Mewtwo !...what a surprise to see you here ?" Taranza replied nervously.
("It's my room, if anything it's a surprise to see you here, you need something with the ash ?") Mewtwo started to interrogate Taranza.
Taranza shoot an energy web that grabbed the Sacred Ash and pull it towards him. "I'm sorry ! But I really need it !" Taranza teleported out of Mewtwo's room to escape.
("Escaping huh ? Good thing I came prepared.") Said Mewtwo as it teleported out as well.
Hallway
Taranza fly in high speed to avoid Mewtwo, however as he looked back while flying, he didn't noticed there's someone in front of him, Taranza hit that someone as he fell down.
"Uuh..what the ?" Taranza rubbing his head to see king Dedede standing in front of him. "King Dedede !? What are you doing so late ?..."
"Taranza what are you doing so late ?" King Defense fired back.
"Well I uhhh..." Taranza struggle to answer, but another voice called out to him.
"Taranza this isn't true is it ? You're not a traitor right ?" Kirby stepped out from the shadows alongside Meta Knight.
"I'm sorry Kirby, but this is my chance to revive Sectonia !" Taranza finally answer.
"We want to help you, but we agree to use that on Cpt. Falcon first." Said Kirby hoping to dissuade Taranza.
"I-i want to believe you, but I just can't wait anymore ! She needs me !" Taranza teleported away.
"Where'd he go !?" Exclaimed Kirby.
"He's got to be at the ship's bridge, he didn't use his golden plate, and that's the only place that have teleporters to other worlds." Deduced Meta Knight.
"So does this mean Taranza the mole Mewtwo talked about ?" Asked Dedede
Mewtwo then teleported to the Dream World trio. ("About that, I doubt Taranza is trying to betray us, you know him better than all of us do, would he do this so easily ?")
"Well he is very devoted to Sectonia, and I have no doubt if we can get her she'll be a great ally." Said Kirby.
"But he's too impulsive, who knows if Sectonia even at her castle or not right now." Said Dedede.
"Talking will get us nowhere, we need to go to the Royal Road !" Exclaimed Kirby.
"We need to head to the bridge first to see if Taranza's there or not." Meta Knight used his golden plate to head the S.S Light bridge.
S.S Light - Bridge
The heroes arrived at the bridge to see it's empty, however the teleported seems to be the only machine active.
"He really did went this way." Dedede goes to check the machine. "The destination is Planet Popstar, Royal Road to be exact."
"Then we'll obviously follow him !" Exclaimed Meta Knight brandishing his sword.
("Then I'm coming with..") Mewtwo then cut off by Kirby.
"Please let us handle this, Taranza is our friend, and we need someone to stay here in case something else happens, besides didn't you say you want to help restore Lucas dad memories tomorrow ?" Pleaded Kirby.
"Rosalina offered to volunteer, but she got turned down." Stated Meta Knight.
"Lucas dad is a widowed man, having a woman like Rosalina enters his house just gonna spread rumors." Explained Dedede.
"What rumors ?" Kirby is clueless about what Dedede means.
"Yeah I'll tell you when you're older." Shrugged Dedede.
("Ahem, I understand, you three go stop Taranza, we need that ash more than anything to chances of saving our friends and families.")
And with that true trio used the teleported and head back to their home world to confront Taranza.
Royal Road - Entrance
The trio arrived at the castle entrance, which is a small floating platform in front of a wooden door protected by steel bars, and cannons on both left and right side of the doors.
"I suppose they already repair this door." Commented Kirby.
The cannons activate and begin shooting at the heroes, Meta Knight and Dedede repelled the incoming cannon balls with their sword and hammer.
"We need to get through that door !" Exclaimed Meta Knight as he slashes the cannonballs to shreds.
"I got this." Kirby pull out a cell phone and begin pressing the buttons, soon a Warp Star is summoned and the heroes hop to it, the Warp Star begin moving and the door, destroying it again.
Royal Road - Interior
Needing to save time the trio chooses to ride the Warp Star throughout the entire castle, on the way they saw many defeated Sectra Clan warriors defeated left and right.
"Taranza got to be the ones doing this." Point out Meta Knight.
"He sure takes the long way huh ? Rather that. Just teleporting to the throne room, or wherever Sectonia mostly be." Asked Kirby.
"Don't know what he's thinking, does he think he can take down Sectonia by himself, if it..." Before Dedede can finished his sentence he felt a sudden headache, he grabbed his head in pain.
("Waddle Dees...give them to us..")
"Dedede ? Are you ok ?" Asked Meta Knight.
"Huh ? Oh yeah, I'm fine..(what was that ?)" Dedede pondered what was earlier.
"The Warriors of Fallen Stars are given orders to resist resurrection by any means, Sectonia will be forced to end the fight quickly before Taranza can do anything,.this is a suicide mission." Stated Meta Knight.
"Which is why we must stop him, we have to reach the throne room." The trio then immediately set their course to the throne room.
Royal Road - Throne Room
Taranza finally arrived at the throne room door, feeling nervous as he gets closer to his goal. ("Did I do the right thing ? They were told to resist resurrection, can I stand a chance against Sectonia ? I don't have a choice,.I've gone too far.")
Taranza opened the door to the throne room and that's when Kirby and co. catch up to him.
"Taranza you must stop this !" Exclaimed Kirby.
"I'm sorry, but this is my only chance ! This is one artifact that didn't have any side effect, I-i can bring Sectonia back with this !" Taranza used his magic to fully opened the door and fly inside.
The heroes then chased after him to the throne room.
As Taranza arrived the one he's looking for is nowhere to be found, instead who's inside is a small figure, the figure turned around and reveal he has the almost identical appearance to Meta Knight, but with a scar on his mask.
"Why hello there Taranza, I've been expecting you." Replied the figure.
"Dark Meta Knight ! What are you doing here !" Taranza is shocked to see Dark Meta Knight instead of Sectonia.
"Oh, were you expecting someone else ? Hahahaha..." Dark Meta Knight let's out a laugh that mocked Taranza.
The heroes then catch up to Taranza. "Taranza this got to...Dark Meta Knight !?" Kirby is also shocked to see Dark Meta Knight inside.
"I see you're here too Kirby, Dedede, and my other self." Said Dark Meta Knight.
"Why are you here ? Last time I checked this isn't your castle !" Yelled Dedede.
"Do you think this is some kind of coincidence ? The way he showed up, it's like it's a setup from the beginning." Whispered Meta Knight.
"But how did he know that ? That this is the day Taranza stole the Sacred Ash ?" Asked Kirby. "Could there be a traitor in our midst ?"
"Judging from reaction it doesn't seem Taranza is the traitor." Whispered Dedede, and again his head suddenly hurting.
("The Waddle Dees...gave them all to us.")
"You sure you okay ? That's twice you got a headache." Meta Knight is getting concerned.
"Look I'm fine, we need to get the ash from Taranza." Insisted Dedede.
"Dedede you got the copy essence ?" Asked Kirby.
"Yeah, I think this one is the right one in this situation." Dedede pull out a copy essence he stored in his hammer.
"ESP ability ? Yeah it's the right one in this situation." Agreed Kirby.
"Dark Meta Knight ! I don't have time for you ! Where's Sectonia !" Yelled Taranza.
"Oh yes the queen of this castle, the one that corrupted because of me, I don't know, but what I do know is you have what I'm looking for." Dark Meta Knight pointed at the pouch Taranza currently holding.
"The Sacred Ash ? What do you want with it ? What use do you have for it !?" Taranza bombarded the doppleganger with questions.
"Not much, just...THIS !" Dark Meta Knight swing his sword and fire a sword beam at Taranza, luckily Meta Knight reacted in time and countered the attack with his own sword beam, destroying the attack before it can reach Taranza.
Distracted by the attack Dark Meta Knight create a mirror portal near him and Taranza, he reached out his hand to the mirror to steal the Sacred Ash from Taranza.
"Hah ! It's mine ! Now to destroy this thing !" Dark Meta Knight sword is imbued with dark energy, however he got blasted by a burst of psychic energy as Kirby teleported behind him, the impact send him flying and caused him to drop the Sacred Ash.
Dedede quickly dashed at Dark Meta Knight and smashed his face with his hammer, sending him flying until he hits a wall.
Kirby grabbed the Sacred Ash and used his golden plate to teleport the ash back to Mewtwo.
"Give it up Dark Meta Knight, there's four of us and only one of you." Meta Knight point his sword to his doppelganger.
"Grrr..." Dark Meta Knight growled in anger.
"It's a shame really, we may have join forces against the Jambandran Cult, bit now that they're not a threat anymore you revert it your old ways." Said Meta Knight.
"I never doing that for altruistic reason, I only team up with you to learn about the power of the Dark Hearts, but now I already found a new allies who will give me power beyond belief !" Exclaimed Dark Meta Knight.
"So you joined the Neo Subspace Army is that correct ?" Asked Meta Knight.
"What ! How did you know that !" Dark Meta Knight surprised that his doppelganger quickly figure things out.
"Too bad for you we already knows what's going on behind the scenes, after all it is our secret war." Revealed Dedede.
"So was I lead here ? Knowing my attempt to revive Sectonia would be futile ? Was that voice in my head was your doing !" Yelled Taranza which surprised the trio.
"Voice in your head ?" Asked Kirby.
Dark Meta Knight stays silent as he create a mirror portal in front of Taranza, he extend his hand and grabbed Taranza's neck and pulled him closer, Taranza entered the portal and reappeared at Dark Meta Knight's hand.
"I may have failed, but it won't be empty handed !" Dark Meta Knight opened a large mirror portal behind him and entered the portal with Taranza grabbed by the neck, after that the portal disappeared.
"He escaped !" Yelled Dedede.
"Where do you think he's gone !?" Asked Meta Knight.
"Could it be to the Dimension Mirror ?" Suggested Dedede.
"It's possible, Taranza said he give the mirror to Sectonia, and since Dark Meta Knight was created from the mirror's power then..."
"We need to look for it, the mirror got to be in Sectonia's room !" Exclaimed Dedede.
"Right, but which one is the room again ?" Asked Meta Knight.
"I don't know but we have to looked everywhere, as the queen she got to have the most decorated door !" At Dedede suggestion the trio left the throne room to look for Sectonia's room.
Royal Road - Sectonia's Room
Dark Meta Knight reappeared here using the mirror portal, Taranza struggled to break free as he gathered magical power to one spot and create an explosion, Dark Meta Knight got blasted and Taranza broke free.
"You ! You used me !" Taranza spoke with a tone full of anger.
"That's your fault for being weak, your desire for your queen what makes you susceptible to manipulation in the first place." Dark Meta Knight getting up from the floor.
Taranza summoned a specter of Queen Sectonia and fired of lightning at Dark Meta Knight, however Dark Meta Knight conjure a mirror shield that reflected Taranza's attack.
Because of that the lightning return to Taranza and he got blasted by his own attack, Dark Meta Knight seize the chance and struck down Taranza, causing the mage to fall down.
Dark Meta Knight walked towards the fallen mage and grabbed him by the cape, Taranza got dragged as Dark Meta Knight stopped in front of a mirror, it has a unique, beautiful and angelic shape with wings on each side, Dark Meta Knight threw Taranza at the mirror, and rather than break, Taranza entered the mirror instead.
"Over here ! There's a sound of fighting from over here !" A voice can be heard from outside, it's Kirby's voice no doubt, Dark Meta Knight quickly entered the mirror.
Soo the door opened, but the heroes were too late, Dark Meta Knight already entered the mirror and used his power to teleported the Dimension Mirror away.
"No ! Were too late !" Kirby lament his failure.
"It's not all loss, we managed to retrieve the Sacred Ash aren't we ? We will get Taranza back, but for now we have to return." Meta Knight try to console Kirby.
And again Dedede felt another headache with a voice spoke to him. ("Give us the Waddle Dees, you will obey..")
"Yes, I agree." Dedede now completely under the control of that voice command.
"See Dedede agreed, we should..." Dedede then cut off Meta Knight as he didn't see Dedede headache this time
"Well actually for me I need to speak with my Waddle Dees, it's been so long since I saw them, I wonder how they're doing ? I can come back with you two tomorrow morning." Said Dedede.
"True, it's been a while since we're home, and it's late now we can come back to the mansion tomorrow morning." Agreed Meta Knight.
"Okay, I'll tell Mewtwo that then." Kirby pull out his golden plate and he contacted Mewtwo telling it that the trio will stay at their world for the night, Mewtwo confirmed it got the Sacred Ash and agreed with their choice as the pokemon returned to it's room.
Kirby then pull out his cellphone again and call the Warp Star as the trio descend to Dream Land. Dedede then went to the resistance base, Kirby returned to his home, and Meta Knight patrol the skies of Dream Land.
The next morning...
Dream Land
As tomorrow came Kirby left the house to meet up with Dedede and Meta Knight, as Kirby is walking a Warp Star appeared before him, seeing this way would be faster Kirby hopped on the Warp Star.
Kirby begin flying across Dream Land, however soon the sky turns dark and what was once a sunny weather turned stormy, a star shaped portal is formed on the dark clouds above and begin sucking everything nearby. Kirby tried to escape as he avoid the debris sucked by the portal, however his efforts proved fruitless as he got sucked into the portal.
Forgotten Land - Beach
Kirby wake up on a beach, realizing he's not in his world anymore, he saw his golden plate next to him and begin contacting Mewtwo.
("Yes Kirby.") Mewtwo picked up his call.
"Sorry Mewtwo, but I'm going to be late, stuff happens, is Meta Knight and Dedede with you ?" Asked Kirby.
("No, those two aren't back yet either, what happened ?") Asked Mewtwo.
"A strange portal appeared on the skies of Dream Land and brought me to another world, maybe Dedede and Meta Knight got sucked in as well, I'm going to look for them." Said Kirby.
("And Taranza ?")
"Sorry, we failed to bring him back, he was captured by the enemy, but I assure you Taranza isn't the mole, he said a voice in his head compelled him to do what he did." Explained Kirby.
("Okay, I'll tell everyone you three won't be back for a while, you three better come back, we all be waiting.") Mewtwo then cut off communication. ("A voice in the head huh ? Could it be telepathy ? This needs investigating.")
"Right then, time to find out where this is." Kirby then head towards the small forest behind the beach.
And done, so this chapter is integrated with the opening of Kirby Forgotten Land.
Most of this chapter are just filler, light hearted chapter, until the second half.
Wuhu Island is the location of Wii Sports Resort, and in my opinion it's a gorgeous island that I wish it was real.
Smicks are enemies from Gyromite, since they don't seems to be an Earth animal i made it that they're a creatures from another world.
I know Jade never being flirty or seductive in cutscenes except when she was under Booga's spell, but considering several of her move involve seduction I bet she's not afraid to do this, she's just doesn't have the opportunity, besides seduction is something that needs practice, not something anyone can do automatically.
Character debut : Smicks, Dark Meta Knight
Boss Battle : Dark Meta Knight
