Smash Mansion - Basement
With everyone went on mission, Cpt. Falcon went to speak with Isabelle.
"Hey Isabelle." Greeted Falcon.
"Oh hello captain what is it ? Everyone doesn't seem to be in trouble for now, would you like to join their missions as well ?" Asked Isabelle.
"Well no, I'm actually thinking of visiting your world, no doubt we've met when you entered the museum at night." Falcon remind Isabelle at previous event.
"Oh that's right, the one where you were sent to stole the fossils right ?" Replied Isabelle, remembering Falcon's objective.
"Yeah, however stealing the fossils and reviving the dinosaurs isn't just one of our plans, after we fight, did you take a look around the museum ? We placed a golden statue of a horned humanoid holding a sword pointed down."
"That creepy looking statue ? Yeah I see it, that's right Celeste said that that statue came from the lizard people, or well Saurians is it ?" Questioned Isabelle. "Where they use Crazy Redd services ?"
"Yeah, General Scales ordered his minions to pretend to be natives of your world and 'donate' the statue, but that's the thing, the statue is evil, it has the power to amplify the negativity inside peoples hearts, we call that statue the Mani Mani statue, Ness would know more about this, as this is the statue used to spread Giygas influence." Explained Falcon.
Isabelle seemed worried that her home world could be under evil influence, but she tried to be as calm as possible. "I see, but if you're going now does that mean you won't wait for Ness ?" Asked Isabelle.
"It would be helpful to have an expert knowledge, but I can't wait for him, while I'm here waiting, the statue must've done it's job by now." Explained Falcon.
"Then you made up your mind knowing the risk of confronting an unknown enemy ?" Asked Isabelle.
"Yeah, we don't know when he will be back, that statue would expand its evil influence by then, in order to fix my wrongdoings I will go back there and destroy that statue." Answered Falcon.
"Are you going to do this alone ?" Asked Isabelle. "Does this Mani Mani Statue can be destroyed that easily ?"
"I guess it won't be easy, but no one else here know about this statue other than Ness." Continued Falcon.
"Hmmm..let's see here..." Isabelle begin typing on the computer to find something out about the Mani Mani Statue.
"Found it ! Let's see what's this statue is all about." Isabelle looked through the Smashnet about the Mani Mani Statue. "It says here this is an evil artifact made by Giygas's people, it amplifies the darkness within people's heart and brings out the worst in them."
"I know that much, it was explained to me already, anything else ?" Asked Falcon.
Isabelle scroll down to read the continuation. "It says here be careful during direct confrontation, the statue is capable of fighting back against anything nor anyone that wished it harm, good thing i decided not to investigate the statue after our fight at the museum."
"I wasn't told anything else beyond what the statue us capable of, to think it can fight back." Commented Falcon.
"Guess it won't be another easy fight, anyway according to the website, Mani Mani Statue possesses PSI abilities, one of which can kill immediately...Falcon we just got you back, we can't have you died on us again." Isabelle voiced her concern.
"If only we can ask Ness on how he defeat this thing during his adventures." Said Isabelle.
"There's got to be a way, Isabelle keep on looking." Falcon ask Isabelle to keep on looking which she did.
"Hey I think I found something, it's said that in order to protect yourself from the deadly PSI attack you need something called a Night Pendant, or at least anything that can shield you against light based attacks." Stated Isabelle. "This Night Pendant may can only be found in Ness's world, I suggest you go talk to HMS if he has one, he should be done fixing his shop by now."
"Right, i'll do that considering g he have things from other worlds, you know we could use someone who can reflect attacks back to it's user as well." Suggested Falcon. "Maybe Fox and Falco can come along ? They have reflectors to send projectiles back to it's user."
"I'll see what I can do, in the meantime why don't you go check on HMS for the night pendant." Isabelle begin typing in the computer again to see who's the best choice to come with Cpt. Falcon as the man left the Archive Room to get the Night Pendant.
S.S Light - Shop
After the attack on the ship, HMS shop is finally fixed.
Cpt. Falcon went inside the ship and entered the shop. "Hello HMS, I've got the news that your shop is finally fixed."
"Ah a customer ! Welcome, we come, yes its true after all that cleaning the shop is finally done, so since you came here, there's something that you need ?" Asked HMS.
"Yeah, do you have something called the Night Pendant ? I need it to fight an evil statue." Stated Falcon.
"The night pendant you say ? I think I know what statue you're referring to, wait here, I do have it." HMS begin browsing his merchandise to find Cpt. Falcon what he's looking for. "Ah here it is, the night pendant." HMS found the object and returned to Cpt. Falcon. "This is the night pendant, just put it on you and that pesky PK Flash can't harm you, you can have it for free today, because it's like a reopening promotion, but I expect payment for future transactions."
Cpt. Falcon thanked HMS as he wore the pendant and return to the mansion.
Smash Mansion - Archive Room
"I'm back Isabelle, so did you find someone yet ?" Falcon returned to the Archive Room as he oponed the door.
Once inside he saw Yuu, Copper, (TP)Link, and (TP)Zelda.
"So Falcon we heard from Isabelle that you have a mission to fulfill ?" Asked (TP)Link.
"Good timing too, I was just done with my training, this really takes me back to my academy days." Stated Copper.
"Yes, now that Falcon is here I can finish my explanation, i call you here because..." Isabelle explain to the Hylian couple, Yuu and Copper about what Falcon said.
"Oh yeah that statue ! We wanted to investigate but you said it's already late so we went back here instead." Said Yuu.
"It seems I made the right call to do that, it says here the statue is equipped with defense mechanism, assuming the statue isn't alive or something." Stated Isabelle.
"Really ? Then I guess it's a good thing, since we admittedly know nothing about that statue." Replied Yuu.
"So it's just Falcon, Link and Zelda, Yuu, and Copper who will be going to my world ?" Asked Isabelle.
"I suppose this is enough, from Isabelle's analysis, my powers and Link's mirror shield should protect us from the statue's deadly power." Said (TP)Zelda.
"Then it's settled then, we're leaving, we can't let that statue corrupting everyone left and right." Yuu used his golden plate to teleport the heroes back to His and Isabelle's world.
Beijing - Alley
In search of the Beanstar, the heroes traveled to China in order to find said object, thanks to Tails successfully finding the location of the Beanstar piece, the heroes are brought to Beijing, the capital city of China, the heroes arrived in a dark, but thankfully empty alley as no one saw them teleporting.
"So, according to the signal it should be somewhere around here." Ken looking at his golden plate, after Fiora left for Alrest, Ken and several others went to China to begin their mission, those several others are Lucas and Green, it's not really a wise idea to bring the non human allies to Earth.
The trio left the alley and arrived at the street. "Wow so this is Earth ? And this is quite the bustling place !" Green admiring the scenery with many buildings everywhere and the streets bustling with people.
"I'm not sure if I like this, reminds me too much of New Pork City." Lucas recalls the time he visit the big city made by Porky.
"C'mon, it's not like we're here for long, let's go look for that Beanstar Piece." Ken looked at his golden plate again and see the signal pointing at the building across where they stand. "According to the signal the Beanstar Piece is located in that building."
Beijing - Bustling Street
Ken point out the building in front, the building looks like a martial arts dojo, and there's a bicycle parked next to it.
"That's where the Beanstar is ? Let's see...its said Earthen Heart." Green shouldn't be able to know mandarin, being from otherworld and all, but thanks to the golden plate power, any foreign language can be automatically understood.
"Ah, the Earthen Heart style huh ? They say this style have a very long history dating back all the way since Imperial China, although it has many branches all over the country, doesn't seem it has any interest to expand beyond China's border." Pondered Ken. "But we're not here to discuss martial arts, we should pay the place a visit."
Green and Lucas nodded and decided to enter the dojo.
As Ken about to open the door, the door isopned from the inside, a blnde haired girl wearing an orange beanie hat, orange shirts and shorts coming out from the dojo.
"Thank you for for your patronage sir." The girl politely thanked the dojo shifu for buying noodles from her restaurant as she turned around and saw the heroes.
"Oh ! Please excuse me," Ken stepped aside to let the girl leave as she went to wards the bicycle, most likely the bicycle belong to her.
"I'm guessing she's not a student at this dojo ?" Pondered Green.
"I guess not, and that bicycle though, it looks like the kind of bicycle used for food delivery, the metal box at the back pretty much a giveaway." Ken describing the bicycle.
"The dojo probably order food from the restaurant she worked at, I wonder if coming inside right now is a good timing ?" Asked Lucas.
"Well I'd rather not wait for too long, before we're leaving Tails said that the Beanstar piece we're after doesn't seem to stick around in one place, it keeps on moving from place to place." Answered Ken.
Remembering this, Lucas take a look at his golden plate again, and to his surprise the signal is moving !
"Ken ! The Beanstar is moving again ! Lucas showed the radar screen in the golden plate to Ken.
"What the ! It's not inside after all ! But then how..." Ken begin to realize something. "Wait, there was a bicycle parked here, I think the Beanstar is at that bicycle !"
"It's the only lead we got, but now how are we supposed to catch up to that bike ?" Asked Lucas. "I'm not familiar to this place, I can't teleport us around without knowing where we are, not to mention there are many people here."
"I have an idea, let's get back to that alley, I'll sent out Gengar and told him to follow that girl with the bicycle, when she stops Gengar can teleport us right to her." Suggested Green. "And don't worry about people looking at Gengar, ghost type Pokemons can make themselves invisible."
"I agree with that idea, China is a huge place, running around with no plan is not a good idea, considering I never went to this part of the city, and you two came from another world entirely." Said Ken.
"Then let's go !" The heroes return to the alley to enact their plan.
Beijing - Alley
With Green, Ken, and Lucas back to the empty alley, Green pull out her pokeball and sent out Gengar.
"Gengar, we need you to follow a blonde girl riding a delivery bicycle, once the girl stop, we need you to teleport us to where she parked her bike, make sure no one saw you." Ordered Green as Gengar obeyed, it flies and turn itself invisible.
"There he goes, we can only wait for Gengar to track her down." Seeing there's no option left, the heroes decided to wait in the alley.
Smashville - Yuu's House
The heroes arrived at Yuu's House, however unlike before Yuu's house has been ransacked.
"Welcome to my house, didn't think I'm going back here so soon." Said Yuu. "What the ! Why is my house is a mess ! It's like someone broke in here !"
"A burglary ! Here ! I will make sure whoever did this will be brought to justice !" Copper return to his cop mode.
"Yuu ? Did you lock your door when you join us ?" Asked Falcon.
"Yeah...about that, I didn't, robbery or crime in general never happened here before so it's always safe here even if you never lock your door." Answered Yuu.
"Don't worry Yuu, we will get your stuff back also, is there anything important here stolen ?" Asked Cpt. Falcon.
"Well I don't have anything dangerous like Link's weapons, maybe the Bells I saved, Yuu then went to the basement with the others followed.
"Looks like your basement is a mess too." Stated (TP)Link.
Yuu tried to move the bookcase, he saw the safe behind the bookcase is still untouched.
"Good, the safe is untouched, guess everything else they stole is just regular stuff that can be replaced." Yuu breathe a sighed of relief.
"Okay so what's the plan ? Should we just barge in and destroy the statue ?" Asked (TP)Link.
"I'd rather not cause too much scene, but it seems it's our only best bet, this is a peaceful place, security isn't strong here, so we may be able to do just that." Stated Yuu.
Copper sighed at his situation. "Is this really our only choice ? Breaking the rule to do the right thing ?"
"Well we don't have many choice, sometimes to do the right thing you must not let yourself to bound by the rules. I doubt anyone would believe the statue have evil influence !" Replied Cpt. Falcon. "Not to mention buying it from the owner obviously impossible as well."
"I get that, but I still feels conflicted sometimes." Added Copper.
"Look, let's just check the situation first, then we will figure out what to do from there." Suggested Yuu as everyone left the house and head to the museum.
Smashville
"You know Yuu, have you locked your door yet, I know the burglar doesn't stole anything important, but you don't want them to steal anymore of your stuff right ?" Asked Cpt. Falcon.
"Well with that mess I don't think I'll find my keys anyway." Replied Yuu.
"Don't worry about that." Said (TP)Zelda as everyone stare at her. "I used my magic to lock the door, and I put a barrier around Yuu's house so no one can get in."
"Really ? Thanks Zelda." Said Yuu.
"Come to think of it, this place is..." (TP)Link saw two anthropomorphic cats spraying graffiti on someone's house.
"Stuff like this never happened before ! Hey you kids !" Copper shouted as the kids run away from the angry cop.
"Is this the statue's influence ?" Asked (TP)Zelda.
"That should be the case, I know those kids, they never cause trouble before." Stated Yuu.
"If only Ness is here, he would know about the statue's capability." (TP)Zelda wishing Ness were here.
The heroes looked around as the city seems to be in chaos as there's riots, fighting, robbery, and all sorts of crimes in broad daylight.
"We have to hurry ! The faster we destroy that statue the sooner things will go back to normal !" The heroes rushed to the museum to confront the statue.
However before they can reach the place a group of Saurians stand in their way. "Hold ! We have an order from the mayor to arrest you !" He then pointed at Yuu.
"Me ? What did I do !?" Yuu incensed at this accusation. "Did Ai really ordered you to arrest me !?"
"Yes, in case you didn't know here's your wanted poster !" The Saurian give Yuu a wanted poster, and the drawing makes him looks quite ugly.
"I look nothing like this ! Whoever draw this needs to be fired immediately !" Yuu ripped apart his wanted poster.
"Do you think we will listen ? You all are General Scales underlings, you didn't work for security in this world." Cpt. Falcon stood in defiance.
"Oh but we are, see this is our badge." The Saurians flashed his badge at the heroes.
"I can't believe this, if what you're saying it's true then why are you arresting us !? The town is in chaos !" Exclaimed Copper.
The Saurians looked at the law breaking villagers but they just shrugged. "Meh, they don't seem to do anything bad, you guys in the other hand, are the suspicious ones."
"Enough with the charades, we're under arrest because we're trying to destroy the Mani Mani statue Am i right ? You're here to stop us from doing that." Exclaimed Falcon.
"Ah so you admit you're trying to vandakise the museum exhibit, to the hand cuffs with you !" One if the Saurian pull out a handcuff and about to restrain Cpt. Falcon, only for (TP)Link to punched him in the face.
"We're not the ones getting arrested ! C'mon everyone we can the these two !" (TP)Link rallied his teammates, even Copper is willing to fight.
But then a voice is coming from behind. "What's all this commotion ?
"That voice ? Is it Booker ?" Copper seems to recognize the voice and yes it is Booker, although he had a more stern looking face then usual.
"Chief its a good thing you're here ! These people the mayor wanted to arrest, they're resisting arrest !" Exclaimed one of the Saurian.
"Resisting arrest is a serious crime, then use any means necessary to bring them down !" Ordered Booker.
"Booker it's me ! Are you really doing this to your friend !?" Copper pleased to his best friend.
"You're joining a vigilante, that makes you guilty as well, stand down Copper or I will to." Booker pull out a gun and point it at Copper.
(TP)Zelda used her magic to blast the gun away from Booker's hand and (TP)Link quickly struck the Saurians down with his sword, cresting a path forward. "Now you guys move !"
With no time to think the heroes obeyed as they run past the downed cops, well at least Booker is still the real cop.
"Hey ! Get back here !" Yelled Booker, he then grabbed his walkie talkie and ordered for reinforcements.
And soon a the heroes make their way all the Saurians stationed at the town came out and hinder the heroes, fighting ensues, but their number is just too much.
"We got you now ! Surrender or we will use lethal force !" Booker threatened the heroes.
"We're cornered, there's too much of them !" Exclaimed (TP)Link.
In desperation Yuu looked around, and he saw a hand signaling them 'this way'.
"You guys I think i know a way out, but we need to lose these guys first." Yuu said his idea.
"Leave that to me." (TP)Zelda pretend to raise her arm, tricking the 'coos' into thinking he surrenders, but then bother her hands emit bright light so bright it blinded the 'cops' as they're forced to close their eyes.
Cpt. Falcon follow through by using Falcon Punch to the ground, as he shatters the ground and caused the 'cops' to fall from losing their balance.
"Now follow me !" Yuu run to a certain direction and the others followed, and as the light faded the heroes are nowhere to be seen.
Forest
The heroes entered a forest by following Yuu's direction.
"Are you sure we should be here ?" Asked Cpt. Falcon.
"I saw someone here, whoever it is must've helped us escape." Said Yuu.
"You believe there's someone still not under the statue control ?" Asked (TP)Link.
The heroes keep walking until they saw a tent nearby.
"That tent could it be ?" Yuu hurriedly went inside as the others followed.
Katrina's Tent
"Yuu, don't just run off like that !" Exclaimed (TP)Zelda.
"Sorry about that." Yuu apologized.
"So this tent is ?" (TP)Link looked around.
"Welcome to my tent, my name is Katrina and I'm the proprietor of this fine establishment." An anthropomorphic panther dressed like a fortune teller introduced herself.
"Katrina it was you who helped us right ? Thank you for that." Yuu thanked the fortune teller.
"The town is in chaos, and I sense a great evil, but I also see hope, and its up to me to guide those who bring us hope." Said Katrina. "Now then would you like to read your fortune ?"
"Well we appreciate the offer, but.."
"Sure !" Yuu interjects Falcon, hoping if the fortune telling can help with their mission.
"Very well then, let's see what the cards have to say." Katrina pull out a deck of tarot cards and begin shuffling it, she then placed several cards in the table. "I'm using the three card spread for this, let's see now."
Katrina flipped open one card and it shows the Strength Arcana. "I see, the strength, all of you possess great power to overcome any challenges thrown at you."
Katrina flipped the second card revealing the moon arcana. "The moon, you will encounter things that makes you doubtbor second guess things, but do not be discouraged, not everything yiu hear or see is the truth, never fear to press on in the face of uncertainty.
Katrina finally flipped the third card, it revealed the justice arcana. "The justice, there's a consequence to every action, but I believe what you're doing will bring out positive consequences."
"Thank you for indulging, now then I believe what you're looking for is at the museum, I can show you a way where you won't be spotted by those outsiders." Katrina predict then a way to enter the museum without being spotted by the 'cops'.
"Thank you Katrina we'll be sure to make use of your advice, c'mon everyone let's go !" Yuu left the tent as the others follow suit.
As the heroes left the tent Katrina turns out to have two cards in her hand. "I know I shouldn't have done this but..." Katrina put the two cards on the table revealing the tower and death arcana.
"Tower, I guess their problem is fr from over, and Death...looks like the world's are going to change, looks like there's nothing I can do but to accept the outcome."
Museum
"We've arrived." Said (TP)Link. "Looks like she was right after all."
"Katrina's fortune is always accurate, maybe she does have a gift after all." Pondered Yuu. "Well no time for that, let's head inside."
Once the heroes reached the museum they saw the Saurians reappeared once again, this time taking all the fossils and putting them in a trolley.
"Hey ! You there !" Exclaimed Yuu at the Saurians.
"Huh !? You're talking to us ? Hey wait a minute I remember you ! You're the brat that beat us up when we're trying to steal these fossils !" The Saurian man remember the previous incident.
"Huh ? You got beat up by a kid ?" Asked his cohort who tried to stifle his laughter.
"You weren't assigned to this mission ! This kid is stronger and craftier than he looks, and also...Cpt. Falcon I see you're back on their side ?"
"That's right, I came back to the right side, and I see you still working for the wrong side ?" Falcon asked the Saurian.
"I worked for the stronger side !" Remarked the Saurian.
"Honestly it's really disheartening that people equate evil with strength, very well then, it looks like I have to put you in your place." Cpt. Falcon readies himself for a fight.
However despite knowing this the Saurians only smirked as they don't seem to be afraid.
"Say Falcon why are you here again exactly ? Was it to to stop us ? That can't be since there's no way you would know we were here."
"The only reason is...you must be after the statue we placed the last time we were here am I right ?"
"Well your cohorts did try to arrest us, I think I'm coming back here sooner or later to destroy that statue is obvious." Responded Falcon. "But what is it matter ? You can't stop us from freeing these people from the statue control."
"As powerful as you are, you can't take us all down, you only have to choices, either fight us and delaying yourself to reach the statue, but even then who knows what kind of craziness to the extreme would unfold when you waste your time fighting us, some of the residents here have been hospitalized from their own actions, or second you let us go and reach the statue immediately." The Saurian gave the heroes sadistic choices.
"Or we could do this." (TP)Zelda begin to speak as she used her magic to magically bind the villains. "Once were done with the statue we will come after you, and you will spill your secrets."
With the Saurians are completely immobilized, the heroes quickly head to the next floor.
"There don't seem to be any security here !" Remarked (TP)Link.
"Yeah, to think something so important would be heavily guarded." Copper agreed with (TP)Link.
"There's the statue !" Yuu pointed the Mani Mani Statue.
"Now we will destroy that thing !" However before the heroes can get close or do anything, the Mani Mani Statue eyes flashed a bright light towards the heroes.
Beijing - Alley
Ken, Green, and Lucas is still waiting for Gengar.
"So, how long is your ghost friend gonna teleport us ? I mean finding a blonde girl riding bicycle isn't exactly hard in China." Said Ken.
"It can't be helped if she's making delivery, she can't stop for a long time." Replied Green.
"So Green, you said you've been traveling since you were 10 right ? Your parents allow you to do that ?" Asked Ken.
"Yes, I mean it's not unusual, my parents allow me to leave and travel since I have my own Pokemon, the same goes for children everywhere in my world." Answered Green.
"And you too Lucas ?" ken asked Lucas now.
"My dad was busy looking for Claus he ended up neglecting me, in the end because I'm one of the few people who can wield PSI I have to do something." Answered Lucas.
"Oh man, I can't imagine letting Mel do the things you two are doing." Ken voiced his distraught.
"Well Mr. Masters, if your son interested in Pokemon training, I can be his personal tutor, of course we'll star with basic Pokemon like Caterpie or Rattata, once he gained enough experience then we can move on to a more dangerous Pokemon like Gengar." Green teasing Ken.
"No ! Please don't ! I think I'll manage without having monsters roaming at my mansion !" Ken panickingly refusing Green's offer.
"Honestly sometimes I don't know why otherworlders seems too wary of Pokemons." Remarked Green.
"Well they are dangerous, but I don't mind wanting to get to know them, after all I did befriend a baby Drago back in my world." Said Lucas.
"Then would you like to befriend a Pokemon Lucas ? I would happily teach you their charms, strength and what not." Green smiled at Lucas.
As the three still waiting, several thugs are entering the alley. "Huh !? Who are you !? This is our turf !"
"Great, thugs, just what we need right now." Green sighed with a deadpan face.
"People like this are less likely to listen, I think a fight would be inevitable." Commented Lucas.
"Now now let's not get hasty." Ken said to Lucas as he approached the thugs. "Look, we're not gonna be long, so could you just wait for a bit."
"We don't have to listen to you ! Especially foreigners like you ! This is our country ! So you have to obey us ! But if you won't listen then !" The thug grabbed a wooden stick from his subordinate and swing it at Ken, who catch it easily and disarmed the thug of the stick.
After that Ken take a fighting stance and almost punch the thug with incredible speed, the thug fall down from the sheer pressure from the fist.
"I-i-i I'm not done yet !" The thug still talk a big game even though he struggled to get up.
Now Green decided to step in, she put her hands behind her back and holding a pokeball just in case. "We won't be here long, so can you please let us use your hideout ? You won't turn down a pretty girl are you ?"
"Oh man you're pretty, say why don't you spend some time with us instead rather than this old man." One of the thugs is hitting on Green.
"O-old man !?" Ken is offended by that statement.
"In his defense Ken, you are a father already." Replied Green.
Hearing this, one of the thugs seemed to realize something. "Ken ? Wait, that hair, that red GI ? Are-are you Ken Masters !"
"Oh ? Someone seems to recognize me, that's right, I am that Ken Masters !"
"I know this guy ! He's one of the contestant of World Fighting Championship ! We don't stand a chance !"
"D-don't be absurd ! There's still just one of him and two of us !" Exclaimed the thug
"You say that and yet you're still on the ground." Pointed one of the thugs.
"S-shut up ! I'm..." As the thug about to get up, a darkness portal forming on the ground as Gengar emerge from the portal, partially as only the upper body who emerge.
"Gengar, welcome back, does this mean you found her ?" Asked Green.
"What ! What is that thing !?" One of the thugs terrified at the sight of Gengar.
"That's right, Gengar, these nice gentlemen just show up, and they're being very hospitable, could you reward them by guiding them to the afterlife ?" Green smiling after uttering such horrors.
Gengar nodded as it used its power to forcibly remove the thugs soul from their bodies, only for them to scream and run away.
"Great bluff Green, they won't be bothering anyone for a while." Praised Ken.
"I wasn't bluffing, Gengar really can drag them to the afterlife and I really am asking him to spirit them away." Said Green innocently, whereas Ken and Lucas terrified out if their wits. "Okay, let's go then." Green jumped into the darkness portal as Ken and Lucas follow suit after, albeit feeling nervous.
Moonville
"Uugh...where are we ?" Cpt. Falcon clutches his head after he and the others are exposed to that bright light. "Is everyone OK !?"
"Yeah, we're fine, and all of us are here too luckily." Replied (TP)Link.
"But, where are we ?" Yuu looked around to see that the sky is dark and the buildings are using neon lights to stay lit.
"Is this night time ?" Asked (TP)Zelda.
"There's no way ! People usually don't go outside during nighttime, they all content to stay at home." Answered Copper.
"Either way I don't like this, we need to find a way out of here." Urged (TP)Zelda.
The heroes then start walking to find out where they are, Cpt. Falcon saw a man and approached him. "Excuse me sir, can you tell us where this is ?"
The man replied in incoherent manner. "Wel com e to Moon ville wel comes andde moon s ville."
"O-okay, good to know." A creeped out Cpt. Falcon slowly backing away as he returned to his companions.
"Well that man said we're in Moonville." Explained Cpt. Falcon.
"We should ask him if he saw the statue as well." Suggested Copper.
Cpt. Falcon decided to stop Copper from doing that. "Let's not ask that man, we should ask someone else, he seems...pretty busy."
The heroes kept on walking, and as they pass by a tree, (TP)Link noticed an abstract painting hanged on that tree, he walked closer to observe the painting. "I never understood art."
However as (TP)Link stared at the painting he's feeling rather drowsy.
"Link ? Link ? What are you doing there, we must..." As (TP)Zelda approached (TP)Link the painting moved by itself and about to bashed (TP)Link's head.
(TP)Zelda gasped, but she quickly shoot a light arrow at the painting, preventing it from harming (TP)Link.
"Zelda what happened !?" Asked Cpt. Falcon.
"I think a painting was about to attack Link !" (TP)Zelda pointed at the painting on the ground.
And the painting got up, deciding to attack (TP)Zelda first, however both Yuu and Copper stepped in and bashed it with a baseball bat and a bo staff.
Staggered by the attack, Yuu and Copper continue their attack and smashed the frame and ripped the painting, killing the Abstract Art.
"Link ? Link ?" (TP)Zelda kept calling but (TP)Link doesn't seem to respond, so she used her magic and snapped her finger, awakening (TP)link from his trance.
"What the ? Zelda whats going on ? I saw some weird painting and what happens after is a blur."
"I think that painting just hypnotize you, you're about to be attacked by that monster painting." Answered (TP)Zelda.
"Painting monster ? This world is getting weirder and weirder." The heroes continue ahead after defeating the Abstract Art.
The heroes continue walking to find a way out they've been hindered by other monsters such as Robo Pump and Enraged Fire Plug.
"First a painting, and now a gas pump and fire hydrant ? Are we even in reality anymore ?" Questioned Falcon.
"Well that fire hydrant monster really soaked me with water, so it must be real, you agreed right Zelda ?" Asked Yuu who is squeezing his wet shirt.
"My dress is wet, there's no doubt on that." (TP)Zelda squeezing her dress and her hair.
"And that gas pump just throwing bombs out of nowhere." Complained Copper.
"And you hit the bomb back to them using your staff, that was impressive !" (TP)Link complimented Copper.
"A bold move if I say so myself, but I'm glad I did it." Smiled Copper proudly.
"We looked everywhere outside, but we can't find anything resembling an exit, every time we try to left the town's border there's an invisible wall blocking us." Said Yuu.
"Maybe we should try inside the building ? This is a bizarre location after all." Suggested (TP)Zelda.
"Maybe we should, can't expect logic to work here, so where should we start ?" Asked Cpt. Falcon.
"If it's obvious we should enter the museum, that is where s all started after all." Suggested (TP)Zelda.
"Okay then to the museum it is !" The heroes decided to make their way to the museum in Moonville, however after taking a few steps Cpt. Falcon has stopped moving.
Beijing - Mintendo Noodle House
The heroes emerge from Gengar's shadow portal, they arrive in another alley of a building, as the heroes leave the alley they arrived at a noodle shop.
"This is...Mintendo Noodle House, could that girl be working here ?" Asked Green as she's amazed by the large bowl like arena in front if the shop.
"She probably is...hold on, this place seems familiar somehow, have I been here before ? I know I at least heard it from somewhere." Ken closed his eyes and stroke his chin.
"No time for reminiscing, we need to grab the Beanstar Piece, now where is it ?" Green begin looking around the bicycle.
"Better hurry before she's back outside." Lucas follow Green and also begin searching the bike.
Ken soon join with the two young ones as he also begin looking in for the Beanstar Piece in the girl's bicycle.
"Hey I see some shining green stuff in the handle bars, could this be the Beanstar Piece ?" Asked Lucas.
Green pull out her golden plate, confirming the signal of the Beanstar Piece. "Yes, this is it ! Now we just need to remove it from this bike." Green grabbed the Beanstar Piece and tried to pull it from the bike to no avail.
"It's stuck, the girl must've used it for the bike's decoration." Said Ken.
"Can you remove it Ken ?" Asked Lucas.
"I can try, but depending on how things will go, I many ended up wrecking the bike also...then again I can always pay it back." Ken then grabbed the Beanstar Piece and attempt to pull it off.
But then, the restaurant door is opened and the girl saw Ken trying to 'wreck' her bike.
"Hey you ! Get off there !"
"Uh oh ! Busted." Muttered Ken as the girl looks angry.
"If you don't leave now I will have to use force !" The girl put on a mask and her arms ended up extending, allowing it to fight in a long range. "Honestly people somehow have been trying to steal my bike lately."
"Of course ! Now I remember ! You ! You're Min Min aren't you !? One of the fighters in ARMS Tournament !" Exclaimed Ken finally remembering.
"Oh, so now you recognize me ? And yet you're still trying to tamper with my bike aren't you ?" Asked Min Min.
"Okay look, can we talk, my name is Ken Masters, ever heard of me ?" Ken introduced himself to Min Min.
"Ken Masters ? That name does sounds familiar, I remember now, you're in of the participants at World Fighting Tournament right ?" Asked Min Min.
"That's right, and these two are Green and Lucas, they're uhh...my proteges !" Green and Lucas both looked at Ken funny.
"If you are Ken Masters, I also know that he's a wealthy man, so why would you messing around with a normal bicycle ?" Min Min crossed her arm.
"Look you see here, this green stuff, where did you find it ?" Ken pointing at the Beanstar Piece.
"Oh that thing ? I find it during on of my deliveries, it looked pretty to me so I picked it up and looks good to be decorated on my bike." Explained Min Min.
"If you don't mind, could you please return it to us, this thing belongs to Green, she thought she has lost it forever." Ken tried to lie to Min Min.
"T-thats right, this is mine, and I thought this has been lost forever !" Green tried playing along.
"I see, well if it yours then it can't be helped, I will return it to you." Min Min agreed to 'return' the Beanstar Piece to Green, however she won't hand it back for free.
"But before I do that, I'd like to challenge the Ken Masters himself to a match in the arena." Min Min pointed at the bowl shaped arena. "If you say who you say you are, then this is a rare opportunity that I can't miss."
"Well I do like your spirit little girl, very well, I actually always wanted to try to fight with an ARMS wielder, let's see how different you are from Dhalsim." Ken agreed to a match as they both stepped in to the arena.
("Hmm..this girl Min Min said her bike have been chased after by people, then could it be ?...just in case then.") Green grabbed one of her pokeballs and discreetly sent Gengar out, telling it to protect the bike from the shadows.
"Oh right, you were delivering noodles earlier right ? Aren't you in the middle of your job ?" Asked Ken.
"I already did my share, if there's anither delivery the other staff can deal with it, this is my break time after all." Responded Min Min.
"Then we don't have to worry about distractions ?" Asked Ken.
"No, we can fight to our hearts content." Relied Min Min.
With nothing else in the way the two begin to fight, Min Min throwing what seems to be a chakram like weapon from her right hand, Ken able to catch the weapon and throw it back at Min Min, but she counter it by somersaulting the chakram, sending it back at Ken.
Ken responded by firing Hadoken at the chakram, as the impact caused the weapon to fall to the ground.
But unknown to Ken that gave an opening to Min Min as she has a dragon shaped weapon on her left hand and the dragon fired off a laser beam at Ken. Ken got blasted as he fell down.
As Ken got blasted away Min Min retrieve her fallen weapon. "There you go ramram, back to your rightful place."
Thinking she had won, Min Min doesn't realize an energy attack heading her way, a Hadoken blast her in her face as she the one fell down this time.
"Didn't think you can defeat me that easy do you ?" Smirked Ken.
"Should've known this wouldn't be easy." Min Min got up and set her dragon at Ken again and fired a beam, Ken dodged that attack, he close the distance between him and Min Min as he grabbed her extended arm, as Min Min can't control her dragon arm when it fire a laser beam, Ken then throw Min Min overhead as she's launched to the air.
Min Min switched her ramram into Megawatt, a mace like weapon, she swing her Megawatt to the ground likely to softening her descent to the ground. She then followed by using her dragon to fire a laser beam to the ground to further softening her descent, but as she's distracted by a means to save herself, Ken jumped and used Tatsumaki Senpukyaku, he did a fiery spinning flying kick at Min Min, the impact caused her to fall.
As Green and Lucas watch the fight, a couple of thugs, different from before sneaked in and about to grab Min Min's bike, unfortunately for them they're greeted by Gengar.
Min Min launched her megawatt at Ken, which he countered by using Shoryuken as he punched the mace upwards, though the electricity covering the megawatt did hurt him a little.
Min Min fire her laser beam again with Ken barely able to dodge, though his hand feeling a little numb, Ken gathered enough energy to his hand and about to fire a Hadoken, but then...a scream can be heard outside the arena.
As the the four of them turned their attention to the scream they saw Gengar trying to reap the souls of those thugs.
"What the ? What is that thing !" Min Min freaked out at the sight of Gengar.
"Okay Gengar i think that's enough, there's no need to take their souls." Green clapped her hand as Gengar stop terrorizing the thugs.
The thugs are getting too terrified to even run away.
"Don't worry about them, I make sure Gengar doesn't go too far, although we can't let them get away with this now do we ?" Green smiled scarily.
"He, I recognize those men ! You're the thugs who tried to stole my bike these past few days aren't you !" Exclaimed Min Min.
"Oh ? Do they now ? So then are you going to leave or i will let Gengar continue with what he did before." Green threatening the thugs."
"No ! Please ! We ! We were hired to take that green decoration, that's all !" Exclaimed the thug.
This surprised the heroes as they realize what this means. "Someone hires you ? Who is it !?" Ken demanding answer.
"We ! We don't know ! He never tell us his name !" Exclaimed one of the thug.
Seeing the can't answer Lucas uses his telepathy to probe their minds instead, Lucas saw an event from few days ago where the thugs talking to a man wearing a purple outfit which sleeves are longer than his arms, he's a tall and thin man as well. After seeing enough Lucas begin to speak.
"Mr. Ken, that's enough, they're terrified, just let them go." Begged Lucas, except this is an act as Lucas winked at Ken, giving him a signal.
"Y-yeah ! Listen to the kid, we promise we won't cause trouble anymore !" Ken let go of his grip as the thug run for their life.
"Lucas I suppose you have a reason for doing what you're doing ?" Asked Ken. "They could be working for our enemy."
"I do," Lucas transferred his telepathic vision to Ken with his psychic powers.
"I-i know that man ! Its F.A.N.G ! So he's the one hiring those thugs !" Exclaimed Ken. "But that means...no I can't jump to conclusion, but the posibility is high."
"Excuse me but ? What are you talking about ?" Min Min unable to follow the conversation.
"Oh, it's nothing important, but uh I did do what you say about wanting to fight me, so about that green decoration ?" Asked Ken. "Though we haven't declare a winner yet."
"It's your victory, I still think I have much room to grow, but back to topic at hand it seems everyone wanted this green decoration on my bike, just what is so important about it !?" Min Min grew suspicious.
"Um..well..." Ken is hesitant to answer as he don't want to involve Min Min.
Moonville
"Falcon ? Falcon ? What happened ! It's like he stopped moving !" Exclaimed (TP)Link.
As he tried to look for help he saw the other are frozen just like Falcon.
"What happened here ? Is this a work of an enemy !?" (TP)Link readied himself as he look his surrounding.
And then a figure descend down from the skies above, it's a creature resembling a melting clock. (TP)Link looked at it and point his sword at the monster. "You ! You must be the ones behind this !"
As the monster about to use it's technique, a washtub fell from above and hit the clock monster, making it dizzy.
"Link ! This way !" A voice called out to (TP)Link, (TP)Link looked around and he saw someone familiar hiding in one of the houses in Moonville.
(TP)Link had no choice as several more of those clock monsters appear, and before (TP)Link can be frozen like his companions, he run away and entered the house.
As (TP)Link entered the house the inside looks dimly lit and it's like neon lights installed inside a building as well."Guess I'm save for now ?" (TP)Link then point his sword at the figure who signal him to come here.
"Relax, it's just me." Katrina stepped out from the darkness, revealing herself to (TP)Link.
"Oh, it's you Katrina, sorry I was worried you would be another enemy." (TP)Link sheathed his sword.
"It's natural to be suspicious, being sent to a strange place after all." Replied Katrina.
"Yeah, the people here talk weird, not to mention there's monsters as well." Commented (TP)Link. "By the way Katrina how did you get to this world ?"
"Hmm...about that Link, when I went to check on you at the museum, your bodies are still there, wandering around and talking with each other, to the point that you seem to ignore other people." Katrina's explanation shocks (TP)Link.
"Our bodies still at your world !? Then what is this !?" (TP)Link point his own body.
"The explanation is you don't get sent to an unknown place, this place itself is an illusion, an illusory world I may add, created by the statue." Explained Katrina.
"This- this an illusion ? But the pain of fighting monsters here, Zelda's soaked dress,..."
"Apparently the illusion is so strong that people can be affaected with it, anyway the way I got here presumably the same as you, the statue emit a bright light, and here i am." Continued Katrina.
"If we destroy the statue we might be able to escape this illusion world, but my friends is under some kind of attack." (TP)Link point outside the window, seeing his friends is surrounded by the melting clock monsters. "Those clock monsters stopped them from moving."
"I see it would be tricky if they have such dangerous technique, if only we can surprise them somehow." Pondered Katrina.
Hearing this give (TP)Link an idea. "Maybe there is, like how you drip that washtub, can you replace that with my bombs ?"
"My aren't you creative, very well let's do that." Katrina agreed with (TP)Link's idea.
The two begin executing their plan, Katrina pretend to be a native to Moonville, Katrina pretended to do some things with the cards as she stand on the ground on all fours, she also mumbling incoherently to get the clock monsters attention.
As the clock monsters gather around her, Katrina flipped in of the cards and says "bad luck". Katrina quickly get out of the way as bombs falling from above and bombarded the clock monsters, however while they are injured, the clock monsters aren't completly destroyed, anticipating this (TP)Link lunge in his wolf form and return to his Hylian form in mid air, he readied his arrow and killed the clock monsters with his arrows.
With all of them destroyed the other heroes can finally move again.
"What happened ? And why are we still here ?" Asked (TP)Zelda.
"All of you guys are stopped by a clock monster." Explained (TP)Link.
"My fortune, the moon arcana from earlier, this is what it means, im worried so I decided to check the situation myself." Katrina reveal herself to the heroes.
"Katrina ! How did you get here ?" Asked Yuu.
"Simple, that statue trapped me in an illusion like you all are." Explained Katrina.
"Illusion ! Does this means none of these are real ?" Asked Copper, shocked by this statement.
"No, but we don't have much time, we need to get out of this illusory world fast !" Exclaimed Katrina.
"Our goal is to head to the museum in Moonville, but if those clock monsters show up again, then..."
"Don't worry Captan, leave that part to me, for I shall divine a way without encountering those clock monsters, or any monsters ." Katrina agreed to guide the heroes.
As they continue their trek Katrina kept choosing a path devoid of enemies, and thanks to that the heroes managed to reach the museum faster.
"Here it is ! Thank you Katrina, we won't be able to get here faster if it weren't for you !" Yuu shakes Katrina's hand furiously.
"Congratulations can wait, we need to find that statue." Said Katrina.
"I think we found it already." Copper pointed at the entrance, and lo and behold the Mani Mani Statue is placed at the museum's entrance.
"Once we destroy this thing we van finally out from this bizarre illusion world." (TP)Link unsheath his sword.
"I wish you luck in beating this thing." Katrina cheered on the heroes.
"Thanks Katrina, we'll be sure to make a mince meat...or scrap metal out of this thing !' Yuu pull out an axe from his pocket.
The heroes ready to fight as they begin charging at the statue, Copper and (TP)Zelda attack ing from long range as they use guns and light magic respectively.
(TP)Zelda's light magic able to severely damaged some of it parts as its very effective against evil beings, (TP)Link slashed the statue with his sword and Yuu son follow by swinging his Axe at the statue.
Lastly Cpt. Falcon deal with the finishing blow with a Falcon Punch.
Because of it's durable body the statue isn't destroyed immediately, however it is badly damaged, the statue eyes glow towards (TP)Zelda as she's suddenly paralysed.
"I knew it bullet isnt too efdective, then i guess i have to get more physical, please continue to supoirt us Miss Zelda, Miss Zelda !" Copper tend to (TP)Zelda who is unable to move her body.
"What happened to Zelda !?" (TP)Link still battling the statue.
"I don't know but she can't move, I'll try to watch over her !" Copper decided to keep an eye on (TP)Zelda.
Angered, (TP)Link rushed at the statue again, however the statue rotate to face (TP)Link and it's eyes glowing again, Cpt. Falcon noticed this begin to stand in front of (TP)Link, getting in his way.
And then Cpt. Falcon is paralysed, apparently he thought the statue would use it's instant kill technique, sadly the gamble doesn't pay as he's unable to move as well.
"Falcon ! Why did you !?" Asked (TP)Link.
"Sorry, guess my gamble doesn't pay off, but with this pendant I would be save from it's instant kill technique." Explained Falcon.
The statue rotate again and facing Yuu this time, it's eyes glowing again, however as the statue about to attack, Yuu dug into his pocket and pull out a hand light gets reflected back at the statue, paralysng it this time.
"Way to go Yuu !" (TP)Link complimented Yuu on his smart thinking.
"I know I know keep the praise coming." Boasted Yuu, however the statue eyes glow again and as Yuu letting his guard down, the statue paralyze him now.
"What the ! How is it able to use its powers while paralysed !" Exclaimed Copper. "Wait a minute if it can still do that then..princess ! Can you use yor magic on yourself ?"
(TP)Zelda hear what Copper say and decided to try it ourt, and amzingly she's still able to use her magic, (TP)Zelda use it to unparalyze herself. Now able to move her body again. "Thanks for the quick thinking Copper."
"Your welcome princess, but we're almost there." Just like Copper said, the statue won't last long from the damages it took, and so the statues eyes glow brightly again, different from before, this me the might is more glorious and brilliant.
"This got to be the deadly technique ! Everyone save yourself !" Shouted Falcon who while paralyzed still able to move his mouth.
Seeing what Yuu did earlier inspired the heroes to perform a counter attack. (TP)Link shield himself using his mirror shield, Yuu pull out a bigger mirror this time and (TP)Zelda encasing herself and Copper inside a magic barrier.
The statue unleashed its powerful attack, however Falcon is immune from wearing a night pendant.
But for Yuu, and the Hylian couple, its light gets bounced back and attackign the statue instead. The impact caused both statue to suddenly breaking apart from the reflected damages.
"The Statue ! Is breaking apart!" Exclaimed Yuu.
"Time for the finishing blow," Copper loaded his guns with bullet, however as he ready to shoot (TP)Zelda touched Copper's gun and enchant it with magic.
"Go on try it, I hope you like the changes I put to your weapon." (TP)Zelda then conjure a light arrow.
Copper nodded and aimed at the statue with his gun, along with (TP)Zelda telekinetically aimed her arrow at the statue, as he begin to shoot, a projectile of light magic infused within the bullet fly towards the statue And as the bullet and arrow connect, the statue is now completely destroyed from the impact.
"We did it !" Exclaimed Yuu.
Wirh the statue is destroyed, soon Moonville begin to unravel and disintegrate, and the heroes finally escape the illusion world.
Mintendo Noodle House
As Ken struggle to answer, he finally came up with an answer. "Well you see this decoration you have is actually a piece of jewelry ! And once combined together it will form a complete jewel ! That's why a bunch of thugs going after it !"
"Uh-huh ?" Min Min crossed her arm not believing what Ken says, "Then tell me, how did a mere thugs know about something like this ?"
Once again Ken struggled to answer.
"Please I need you to be honest, those thugs once threatened to burn down this shop, I foil them of course by giving them a beating if a lifetime." Stated Min Min. "But I'm afraid they may try again."
"Okay, let us discuss this amongst ourselves first." Ken, Green, and Lucas huddled together.
"So what do you think ? personally I disagree with letting her know." Said Ken. "It's one thing to include our friends and family, but Min Min is just a bystander who got nothing to do with this, there's no need for their to get involved."
"I suppose that makes sense, I would say we could use more manpower, but I disagree with dragging unrelated people into this either, after all all she did was just find the Beanstar Piece and used it for her bike decoration." Said Green.
"So we agree then, I don't agree with dragging unrelated people to our battles either." Added Lucas.
The trio then done huddling and spoke to Min Min.
"Look Min Min, I know you're curious about what just happened, but we're sorry, we just can't completely be honest with you about why we need that piece, there's no need for you to get involved with all this." Said Ken. "Just give it to us and there's no need for those thugs to come after you anymore."
Min Min crossed her arms and sighed in defeat. "Fine, I won't pry any further, the way you make it sounds like is that there's something big is going on, but you're right, I'd rather not getting involved with things beyond my knowledge, here you can have this." Min Min give the Beanstar Piece to Ken.
"Thank you, we shall be on our way now." With the Beanstar Piece on their hands the heroes left the noodle house and teleported back to the mansion once they're out if Min Min's sight.
Smashville - Museum
"Hey we're back !" Exclaimed (TP)Link as the heroes return to the museum.
"Technically you never left this building." Retorted Katrina.
"Hey the statue !" Copper went to check on the now destroyed Mani Mani statue.
"It really is destroyed." Commented Yuu.
"I didn't sense that evil presence anymore either." Added (TP)Zelda.
"Hey everyone look here !" Cpt. Falcon grabbed everyone's attention as there's a number of unconscious Saurians behind them.
"These are !?" Exclaimed (TP)Link.
"Exactly why I asked you to hurry, these people tried to kill you while your were still in that illusory world." Explained Katrina.
"No wonder security is weak at the museum, they known the statue going to trap us in an illusion, and try to kill us while we're still trapped.
"That's a wicked but smart plan, we don't know what happened to us if we suddenly feel. Stab to the stomavhor imethignnlike that, we could die and not knowing how it happened." Said (TP)Zelda.
"Did you do this Katrina ?" Asked Yuu.
"Yes, I went here and offer to tell their fortunes, but I deliberately rigged the fortune and give them bad luck instead, causing anvils to drop in their head." Explained Katrina.
And at that moment a large number iof Saurians entered the museum, but it was to late, the heroes have escape the statue's illusion.
"So you wish to kill us huh ?" (TP)Link point his sword, maybe we should do that to you too, I'm sure the Warriors of Fallen Stars could use more members.
The rest of the heroes also ready for a fight.
Seeing this the Saurians panicked and now that the statue is gone they don't have anymore influence, and also knowing they can't win against the heroes decided to teleport themselves away using the black plate. "No good ! Everyone retreat !"
"Now that we freed, we need to talk to Ai first." Suggested Yuu.
"What about them ?" Asked Cpt. Falcon, pointing at the uncoscious saurians.
"I'll head to the police station and put then in jail, you guys go see the mayor." Copper carried the two unconscious Saurians and head to the station.
"What about the statue pieces ?" Asked (TP)Zelda.
"Let's just take it with us for now." Yuu put the statues pieces into his pocket.
And with that the heroes went to the mayor's office, along the way it seems the citizens have returned to their peaceful self again as they begin cleaning up the destruction they cause.
Smashville - Town Hall
Huh ? What just happened ? I'm feeling rather strange." Pondered Ai.
Not long after the heroes entered Ai's office.
"Hey Ai how are you feeling ?" Asked Yuu.
"Yuu, welcome back, and I see you're with different people this time." Ai assessing Yuu's companions. "As for your question I'm fine, although i can't believe I put out that order to arrest you."
"It's not your fault, that strange statue at the museum is responsible for this mess." Yuu assured Ai.
"You can rest easy miss mayor for we have already destroyed that statue." Said (TP)Zelda. "But let me introduce myself first, my name is Zelda and I'm a princess from a kingdom called Hyrule."
"What ! A real life princess ! Umm...how should I properly greet you your highness ?" Ai tried to be formal.
"Please, there's no need for formality, I'm just glad we're able to save this town." Said (TP)Zelda.
"Miss mayor, my name is Cpt Falcon, and I need to apologize as I was one of the men who brought that statue to this world in the first place, I'm truly sorry for plunging your town into chaos." Cpt. Falcon bow his head.
"Falcon you were under their control there's nothing you can do about it." (TP)Link tried to asuage him of guilt.
"Its alright, i forgive you Mr. Falcon, although the enemy here seems strong, unfortunately because of our peaceful lives we're not well versed in combat, we may going to ask for your help again in the future, now that they wreak havoc to my town you have my full assistance, if there's anything you need, I will try to accommodate."
"Of course ! We will always be ready for help ! Just contact us through the golden plate." Exclaimed Yuu.
"The brainwashing from the statue prevent me from calling for help, but now that it's destroyed I can really call for help should things went wrong, thank you Yuu and your companions as well, right, we should get acquainted, you the swordsman in green what's your name ?"
"My name is Link, and i'm a knight from Hyrule, although to be honest our era is in the past, were brought back to life to complete this mission." Explained (TP)Link.
"I-i see, this is rather much for me to process, but a knight and a princess just sound like fairy tale, Yuu I hope your willing to tell me all kinds of stories when you get back." Teased Ai.
"Yes Ai, I will, anyway our work here is done so I think e should be on our way now." Yuu and co. Left Ai's office as they planned to return to the mansion.
"Well I guess this is where we part ways for now, I'm sure we'll meet again in the future." Katrina left the heroes and returned to her tent.
As they reached outside Copper meet with the heroes. "Sorry I can't come with you anymore, I need to interrogate those prisoners, and Booker back to his old self now that he's not under the statue influence anymore."
"Sorry to hear that, be sure to contact us once you found something." Copper waved goodbye to the heroes as they returned to the mansion.
Meanwhile...
Jolly Redd Treasure Trawl
Redd is speaking with a client over the phone.
"You're statue drive the entire town into chaos ! If they find out I'm invovled in this I can get arrested and unable to make any profits !"
"Calm down, listed Redd you have been our greatest asset when it comes to goods distribution, and of course we will reward you, we can't have our favorite merchant business shut down now can we ?"
"And you think this creature inside this ball like object is the answer to my problem ?" Redd looked at the pokeball in his desk.
"Why of course, when I first encounter a Pokemon I have my doubt's as well, but I learned they possess abilities very useful to everyday life, I ready give you a note about the Pokemon inside, so if authorities come after you just unleash the Pokemon inside and use it's powers, and they will stop coming after you."
"Hmph very well, I'll hold on to your word." Redd then end the conversation. "He better not think to dispose of me, after all there are still many goods to be delivered across the universe."
Beijing
The thugs from earlier went to a dark alley.
"So you've returned, hopefully you have good news for me this time ?" A man spike to them, and as he stepped in from the shadows the man's appearance resemble to the ones that Lucas showed Ken.
"Sorry boss, there was this ghost like creature in the way and.."
"I don't want to hear another excuse ! So you fail again did you !" Yelled the man.
"T-there was Ken Mastters ! A world famous martial artist, and with him there's this girl who 'owns' a ghost and..."
"Enough ! I give you a chance since day one until today ! And yet everyday is nothing but failure, I see now hiring a mere thugs is a big mistake." Fed up with their failures, F.A.N.G strike the thugs with poison, the thugs screamed in agony before they die.
F.A.N.G sighed as he pull out his phone and report the mission status. "Hello, I'm afraid thisbmisisin a failure, it seems the enemy have gotten hold of the object, really ? I d hope next time things did go our way, very well I understand." F.A.N.G end the conversation as he return to his duties.
Finally this is done, I originally plan to to publish two chapters in April, but it seems impossible now.
100 chapters already ! I can't believe I'm able to make it through this far, can't believe it's been four years since started to write this fic, thank you to those who are willing to read my humble fic. Apologies if there's a mistake or something, I'm an amateur writer.
In case you still don't understand here's the meaning of Katrina's fortunes :
Strength : the heroes have the power to to confront their enemies and obstacles.
Moon : their encounter with Moonville, trapped in an illusion world
Justice : by destroying the Mani Mani statue they're freeing the people from it's influence therefore no longer a wanted criminal and the real bad guys the ones receiving the consequences.
Tower : the murder attempt n the heroes while they were trapped in the illusion world.
Death : spoiler.
The Mani Mani Statue already make a debut in chapter 83, I didn't put it in character debut to avoid spoilers.
I use the word Saurians to refer the inhabitants of Dinosaur Planet, whether it's General Scales underlings or allies to the heroes.
Earthen Heart is the martial art style from Live a Live game, specifically from the Imperial China chapter, I make it so the style survive to the modern days.
So Moonville is an original location I made up, since Four side become Moonside in Earthbound, so why not Smashville become Moonville.
Character debut : Katrina, F.A.N.G, Min Min, Enrage Fire Hydrant, Abstract Art, Dali's Clock. Fire Pump
Boss battle : Min Min, Mani Mani Statue.
