Here's the Donkey Kong chapter! Enjoy!

"I don't wanna get up."

Those were the first words of this 17 year old teenager, who lied in his bed at 5:30 in the morning. He was a scrawny teenager, didn't wear a shirt and only wore the pair of jeans that the institution had provided him.

In a room that was completely white, from the walls ,to the floor, and to the ceiling. All that was there was his bed, a toilet, and a sink.

As well as a red chair.

"Well too bad." A security guard stood before him, dressed in a police uniform with a menacing glare. "You're being moved to a different guard. The last one you had didn't want to deal with you anymore."

The teenager didn't move. "Didn't like him anyway."

"Great, then get your ass out of bed and put a shirt on." The guard began walking towards the door.

This teenager watched him leave in the corner of his eye. Sighing, he sat up on his bed and held his head. "Drugs still didn't help."

What was this young man's name?

Tod.

---

A few minutes later…

"You said he was coming."

Said a bald man in a suit and glasses sitting at his desk, tapping his finger while two police guards sat in chairs in front of him. One of the guards was the one that went to get Tod out of bed.

But the other one was different, he had a friendly aura surrounding him. He was still very disciplined and respectful, but he was different compared to all of the other guards. This guard seemed more friendly.

The first guard rolled his eyes. "He is, I told him to get his ass outta bed. He's probably walking slowly."

"Or maybe it's because he's on the other side of the institution." The other guard said. "Just saying."

The door opened as everyone turned towards it.

Tod walked in with a white shirt on, with him slumping forward while walking. "Here."

"Glad you could join us, Tod." The bald man in the suit said, not a sign of emotion in his voice. His name is Mr. Han, president of the institution.

The young man took a seat between the two guards and slumped back in his chair. "So, Larry's gone?

The first guard rolled his eyes. "Told ya he didn't want you anymore."

The man behind the desk nodded his head. "Yes. Tod, I would like to introduce you to your new guard. Officer Mighes, you may leave."

The officer who had gotten Tod stood up. "Good. Have fun with this little shit, Dave."

He closed the door behind him.

Mr. Han nodded, as the man behind the desk let out a sigh. "Sorry, he's not the happiest as you both know. But Tod, meet David Lee Washington. He'll be your guard at the institution from now on."

David put his hand out with a smile on his face. "Nice to meet you kid, you just can call me Dave."

Tod looked down at his hand, his eyelids covering half of his eyes. The young man's expression seemed dull.

But he shook it, staring deeply at the guard. "Tod, I don't have a last name."

Dave only smiled as he shook his hand up and down. "Alright Tod, you better not try any funny business." He then deeply glared at the teenager. "Or I'll know." He said in a deep voice.

Tod didn't change his expression, he just looked at him.

Dave only shook his head and chuckled. "No I'm joking."

"Figured." Tod nodded his head.

Mr. Han scratched his head. "Yes…well I hope you take care of him. Tod, would you step outside for a second?"

Tod stood up and yawned. "Sure." He said as he stepped out of the room.

As soon as the door closed, David adjusted himself back into his seat to face the president of the institution. "So…what's up with him?"

"He…hasn't had the best life…so far." Mr. Han put his hands together. "Police found him at 8 years old in a flaming apartment, no other bodies were in found so they took him to us. But they really shouldn't have."

"He's a lot to handle?" David looked to the door.

Han shook his head. "It's not that, this place isn't the best. Most of our guards aren't good at their job, so that's why we've had a bunch quit on him. But it's also why I called you in. Don't feel pressured, but you're our last hope with the kid."

The guard put a hand under his mouth and crossed his legs. "No pressure felt, it's not long a statement like that leaves any pressure." He chuckled.

"Just look after him, he's a special case." Mr. Han took off his glasses and wipes them off with a cloth. "Poor kid doesn't have parents, but he's got a gift. So look after him."

David smiled as he stood back up. "You got it, always wanted a son-but-not-really."

---

Back in Tod's room. We see him standing in front of a mirror, staring deeply into his blood shot eyes.

He then placed his hand on the mirror.

His hand turned to glass, causing him to retract it and stare at it.

"So I can do that at my will." Tod gave a crooked smile. "Cool."

That's when the door to his room opened, which made Tod turn his hand back to normal. It was David standing in the doorway.

"Hey kid." David said.

Today only glanced at him before looking back into the mirror. "Hey."

There was a bit of silence between the two, not a significant move made by either.

"So uhh…what are you doing?" The guard asked as he sat in a chair that was close to Tod's bed.

"Just checking my eyes." The teenager answered, pulling down one of his eyelids. "Sleep wasn't the best last night."

David nodded. "Ah, okay." He sat in the chair. "So…wanna tell me a bit about yourself?"

Tod put his eye back up and closed them, walking back to his bed and sitting on it to face David. "I'm Tod, don't know what my last name is, and the drugs I'm taking aren't helping me at all." He answered. "But uhhh…yeah."

"You like to do anything?" The guard asked. "Like…pick flowers, maybe do sports…."

"I don't know what a sport is." The teenager yawned. "And all the flowers and trees here are fake."

David pursed his lips. "Oh. Yeah."

"What's up with you?" Tod asked. "Why are you acting friendly?"

The guard shrugged. "Well why not! Why would I be an asshole to you?"

"Cause all the other guards were assholes." He then looked up at the guard. "But…I don't feel that from you, oddly enough."

"Ohhh." David crossed his arms and nodded, a smile on his face. "I got one of those auras to me?"

Tod stared at him for a few seconds.

But soon enough a smile came to his face. "I guess, you wanna see something cool?"

"Sure." David nodded.

Tod placed his hand on the wood of the bed, as it went through his body.

David's eyes widened. "Woah."

Tod's entire body was now wooden! As he shrugged. "Cool?"

The two shared a small laugh with each other.

---

"Hmm."

Tod stared out of a window, seeing the colors of space and the stars. "I can see it, it's out there somewhere. I just know it!"

"I…already told you…you won't find it without Mario."

The hybrid turned around quickly, looking at Master Hand. "Ohhhh yeaaah. I almost HAD him, but some of my allies FAILED!!! So I'll keep searching for him, and kill all your other precious smashers while I'm at it."

"They'll live…I believe in…*cough*." The giant hand coughed as a bit of blood leaked from his body. "Them…"

"We'll see about that. HADES!!" Tod laughed.

The God of the Underworld appeared, his cold feet taking steps onto the solid floor. "Yes?"

Tod blinked. "Get your little God of Death and go find any hint you can find of Mario. I know you won't fail me."

"Ohh, you have a deeper trust in me?" Hades asked. "Oh that warms my heart, if I had one anymore that is."

The hybrid's eyes looked to him. "Oh, that's right. I forgot to recreate your heart. Hold on now."

Dade put his Donkey Kong arm forward and gripped Hades' chest, with a green energy being emitted from the palm. But the green suddenly turned into a pitch black energy that was spreading across the God of Death's body.

It suddenly went away, as Hades looked at himself.

"Hmm, hold on now." Hades put his hand through his chest, waiting to feel something.

He felt a heartbeat.

The God grinned. "Hmhm, I missed a heartbeat like that. Thanks."

"Just go try and find Mario." Tod walked forward.

"I won't need to try." Hades smiled. "I sense something, and he's close to that sense!"

The hybrid stopped for a second, before turning back with a sharp toothy grin.

"Good."

---

"So he wants us to capture the jungle? But why?"

Pandora asked as she walked through the hallway with Vaati, who didn't bat an eye at her.

"Believe it not, there is a special item that needs to be retrieved. So our master requested." The sorcerer explained. "There are also smashers in the jungle, so we will have to end them."

The Goddess of Calamity tightened her fist. "Does…that include Dark Pit?"

Vaati turned to her. "What do you think? Of course it does." He looked forward again. "Besides, it matters not. He is just another pitiful creation of life."

"But…alright. You're right." She nodded.

She didn't believe that, she wanted payback against the dark angel for impregnating her. But she didn't want to KILL him.

Even if her and many of the other Greek Gods had low sympathy for humans, Dark Pit was an angel.

Plus…she couldn't have her child grow without a father,

She had to find a way to prevent Vaati from killing him, and the others in Kongo Jungle.

---

Meanwhile….

"Augh…my head…"

Said the voice of an angel, or rather a dark angel that was lying on the ground.

DARK PIT

"Where am I?" The dark angel sat up and rubbed his eye.

Dark Pit looked around at his surroundings, it was an area covered in green. With trees surrounding him and dirt on the ground, he could even see sunlight peaking through the jungle trees.

"Don't know what this place is." He eventually got up on his feet and began stretching his limbs, the fall from the black hole probably busted a few of his bones. "But the weather's not bad, for being warm."

"Oooooohooooo!!"

He heard the call of what sounded like a gorilla, but it was farther away in the area.

Dark Pit blinked.

"Ohhh no." The dark angel walked towards one of the bushes and put his hands into it, moving it away to get a better view.

There was a large area abroad. The ground was mixed of grass and dirt, and there were even more trees than the shaded area that Pittoo landed inside of, and even a volcano off later on in the island.

His eyelids covered the top half of his eyes. "Great." He slapped his head. "DK, it had to be DK's jungle."

Ah yes, Kongo Jungle on Donkey Kong Island. An island that had come in the form of many stages in Super Smash Bros, but this one seemed like it was from a returning adventure of Donkey Kong.

Returns, get it?

How could Dark Pit tell that it was Kongo Jungle? Because the DK Treehouse could be spotted not far away.

"Just had to be here, nothing but jungle as far as the eye can-hey!"

Something bumped into the dark angel, it came from right behind him as he heard a thud. He turned around and looked at the ground.

"What's the big I-" Dark Pit's eyes widened in response. "Viridi?"

VIRIDI

Indeed, the Goddess of Nature was sitting on the ground, with one of her hand being placed on her forehead. "Ow! Yeah it's me."

Pittoo put a hand out and helped her back up into her feet. "What are you doing running around? I thought Goddesses did more."

"Hey!" She dusted off her dress and glared at him. "You serve me, remember? Forces of Nature officer?"

"Yeah, I know." Dark Pit nodded. "At least i found someone else here. Someone I can actually communicate with at least."

Viridi went up to the bushes and moved some of them away, looking out into the horizon. "Oh! Good, some kind of nature area."

"Is that really what matters right now?" The dark angel raised an eyebrow. "We literally got sucked into a black hole and shot into another universe."

He then looked to the fourth wall. "Yeah I know, a multiverse story in 2024. Very original."

"Keep your voice down!" The Goddess of Nature complained. "The readers don't need fourth wall breaks!"

"Oohhhoo!"

Viridi looked back into the horizon. "Sounds like Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong are out there. Dunno if it's a coincidence or not."

"Whatever." Dark Pit shook his head. "Maybe his crazy dad's in his treehouse."

"Actually, Cranky Kong is his grandfather."

The dark angel squinted his eyes at her. "Didn't the Mario movie say he was his-"

"The Mario movie didn't get that part right, let's go." Viridi began making her way off to the treehouse, walking on her own two feet.

Dark Pit watched her walk off, before he felt something buzz in his pocket. He pulled out his cellphone and looked at the screen.

It was a text, from Pandora.

"I know where you are." The text said. "I'm very mad you know."

The dark angel rolled his eyes in response, as he started texting back. "Haha very funny, what do you want?"

He sent it and immediately received a new text.

That's when his phone rang, it was a call from Pandora. He would've normal hung up, but he figured it wasn't anything big.

He answered. "What?"

"What do I want?" She asked back. "Oh you'll see, you'll see soon enough! I'm on this island right now you moron!"

"Why are you even talking to me? We haven't seen each other in months." He blinked. "Kinda weird to be spying on me."

Pandora scoffed on the other line. "I'm NOT spying on you! Oh well, you'll know soon enough when I-"

"Hang up." Dark Pit said as he pressed the red button on his phone, putting it away in his tunic. "Hey Viridi, slow down will ya?" He ran after her.

---

Meanwhile, there was rustling in the bushes and trees of Kongo Jungle. There were enemies from the Underworld army in said bushes.

Until a Reaper was blasted way out of the trees and far off into the sky. In the shade of the trees a Monoeye was hit to the side, before another was slammed into the ground.

More rustling came from the bushes, until a large monkey jumped right out of them and landed on the cliff.

He looked off in the lands.

"OOOOOOOOOOHHHOOOOOOO!" The gorilla yelled as he beat his chest in anger.

DONKEY KONG

The gorilla turned his attention to the lower grounds, where a large number of Underworld monsters were making off with a large pile of bananas.

HIS banana hoard!

"Grmmm." DK growled before jumping straight to the ground, he ran towards a Komayto and picked it up. Starting to dribble it like a basketball before he slammed it onto the head of a Monoeye,

The gorilla proceeded to throw the Monoeye towards a giant tree, stomping on a Commyloose and grabbing its tentacles which caused it to explode into purple smoke.

But before he knew it two Reapers were sneaking up behind him, lifting their scythes with their mouths wide open.

DK didn't have time to turn around completely, but luckily both Reapers were hit in the head with peanuts.

This bounced off their heads and hit them, giving Donkey Kong the chance to grab both of the Underworld monsters and slam them on the rocks.

Suddenly a monkey with a Nintendo hat flew in on a jetpack, with two peanut pop guns in his hands as he landed right behind DK.

DIDDY KONG

He withdrew his peanut pop guns while Donkey Kong turned around, the two fist bumping each other.

"NYA. MEMEMEMEMEMEHHHHEHEHE!"

They looked back to the banana hoard, as all that remained was a lone Eggplant Wizard. He was snickering at the two while pointing at them.

He then put his staff near the banana hoard.

Donkey and Diddy both glared at him, sending him a message to not do what he was planning to do.

But the Eggplant Wizard didn't take the warning seriously, and touched the pile of bananas with his staff. Which immediately turned every single one of them into eggplants.

"Nye. Nyehehehehehehehe!" He laughed and laughed it up, pointing at the two monkeys and even sticking his tongue out.

Until a shadow was cast over him.

"Nyehehehehehehe…hehe..ha…" The monster opened his eye. "Ha…ha…ha?"

Donkey Kong stood over him with an angry expression, his eyes were red with pure rage while he cracked his knuckles.

The Eggplant Wizard gulped.

In a flash, Donkey Kong thrusted his log sized arm up. Uppercutting the vegetable who turned things into vegetables.

"NYAAAAAAAAAAAAHOOHOOHOO!" The Eggplant Wizard screamed as he was launched far off into the sky.

Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong watched the ascending wizard scream, until a star sparkled that indicated he was gone.

This caused all of the eggplants to turn back into bananas.

Dk and Diddy both grinned, slapping a high five to each other as they began dancing around in victory.

Donkey Kong was beating his chest while Diddy Kong was clapping his hands and moving his feet, truly a victory for the monkeys.

THUD!*

A giant footstep hit the ground, causing Diddy to turn around.

THUD!*

A second one stomped, making DK take a look.

Two giant feet stood in front of the two Kongs, as they looked up to see who they belonged to. A gigantic skeleton in a dark purple robe stood before Diddy and Donkey, wielding a giant scythe.

GREAT REAPER.

The Great Reaper gripped his fist, tilted his head up to the sky. "ARRRRRRAAAAAAGGHH!"

"Ooh?" Diddy looked to Donkey Kong. "Eeh! Eeh!" He pointed at the Great Reaper, punching his fist into his palm afterwards.

DK nodded as Diddy Kong hopped onto his back, activating his rocket barrel jet pack and launching the both of them into the air.

---

"Urgh…dammit."

Said Pandora, riding on top of Vaati as the two were flying in the sky.

Pandora now dawned her Goddess outfit, gritting her teeth in pain as she had one of her hands out.

"Can't you do a better job controlling that thing?" Vaati asked as he was in his bat form. "And can't you also fly? Why should I have to carry you?"

Pandora looked down at him with an annoyed expression. "Because I'm pregnant! And something may happen while I'm flying."

Vaati rolled his eye. "You carrying that bastard child is an excuse for everything you do wrong. I guarantee you were to say it again if I had asked why you couldn't control it."

"You already asked me." Pandora grabbed her arm. "And YES, I was going to use it, you moron."

Vaati's eyelid lowered. "So…I assume you want revenge on this dark angel?"

"That. Or child support." Pandora put her arm down and placed a hand on her stomach. "A LOT of it for all the pain this child is making me feel!!"

"As long as we eradicate all of them, but I want the right to end their measly lives." The bat flapped his wings once.

Pandora stopped, turning down towards him. "What? I thought we were only supposed to defeat them, I didn't know we needed to kill them."

"Does it really matter either way? You serve the God of Death, death shouldn't matter to you anyway." The Sorcerer said without care. "Killing those insignificant beings will only make this world better, and don't think your idea will come to fruition."

The Goddess of Calamity's eyes widened. "What plan?! Are you putting words in my mouth, you fiend?!"

Vaati held in a laugh. "Please, I know you didn't have the intention of killing your little dark angel. You just wanted to take him back to your labyrinth, leaving your own allies behind."

"Wait, what are you talking about?" Pandora took out a script. "How could you have known what I was going to do without a scene involved?!"

Vaati let out a light chuckle. "You think me foolish, but I'm not. And I believe this is our stop."

The Goddess of Calamity's eyebrows lowered. "What? We're still in the air."

"Oh, I apologize." Vaati said. "This is your stop." He then did a quick turn, as Pandora fell right off and began descending to towards the ground. "I'll see you around, or I hope not."

Pandora was moving her arms rapidly as she fell. "DAMN YOU VAATI!!!! You traitor!"

Her voice became more difficult to hear as she continued falling towards the trees, as the sorcerer only looked down at her.

He chuckled.

"That's one more obstacle out of my way, now…where do I begin?"

---

"Ooooooh!" Donkey Kong smashed his hands on the head of the Great Reaper, causing the giant monster's legs to bend. The Great Reaper's eyes looked back up as he threw his scythe up with a swing, Diddy held on tight to DK and did a spin on his jetpack.

Donkey Kong looked at his little buddy, giving a nod and grin. Diddy shot him a nod of his own, as he grabbed DK's arm while the larger kong started winding up his fist.

"Huh?" Great Reaper looked up again, but was soon met with…

A giant Donkey Kong punch to the face! As the impact of the gorilla's fist went deep into his head, as it scrunched up on the top of his head.

The kongs were launched out of his head, as it went back to normal.

The Great Reaper now had X's on his eyes, falling towards the land behind him as life was leaving his consciousness by the second. But he finally crashed into the ground, causing it to shake.

DK and Diddy landed back on the ground.

"Ooooooohooooo!!!" Donkey Kong let out a call and rapidly beat his chest, as Diddy did the same thing. "Ooh! Hah!!!" He pointed at the Great Reaper.

"Yeeehaw!!!!"

Suddenly a plane came crashing right towards the giant monster, as it exploded right upon impact,

Donkey and Diddy's eyes widened while their jaws dropped to the floor.

The Great Reaper exploded into dust while a gorilla jumped out of the explosion. He landed on the ground in front of the two kongs, on a surfboard.

It was a gorilla with lighter fur than Donkey Kong, he wore a white undershirt, jean shorts, a red bandana, and sunglasses over his eyes.

FUNKY KONG

"How was that for an entrance?" Funky grinned as a shine sparkled from his teeth. "Showed that big thing what for! He just wouldn't chill! What's up DK?"

The monkey shook his head and gave a grin of his own, putting his fist out as he fist bumped the Kong with a funky style.

Pun not intended.

"You see me take out that guy?" Funky Kong pointed behind him and glanced at where the Great Reaper used to be. "He was practically asleep."

"Ooh? Ooooh! Uh uh!" Donkey Kong shook his head.

Funky raised an eyebrow. "What? You're saying you guys already took him down?" He turned back to see smoke coming from the ground. "Oh. Guess I just destroyed my plane for no reason. But anyways, what are you guys doing back here? Thought you two lived up in the Smash Mansion!"

Diddy Kong took out a chalkboard, quickly writing on it.

Funky squinted his eyes at the board, slightly lowering his sunglasses. "So a guy came and destroyed the mansion, and now you guys ended up here. When you found out that some weird looking things stole your bananas, then you gave me a good old one-two."

It's impressive that Funky Kong could make out what the two were trying to tell him, because all that Diddy had drawn was an angry stick figure throwing a house and then another stick figure wearing a ski mask holding a tower of bananas.

Donkey Kong nodded, proceeding to pick up the chalkboard and throw it behind him.

"Hmm, well then…guess I'm helping you guys out!" Funky said as he kicked up his surfboard and rested it on his shoulder. "I'd lend you guys a few balloons or a banana drink, but I'm all out! So some ape power's what I'll volunteer!"

He flexed his bicep, as Donkey flexed both of them. Diddy Kong flexed a bit too, but he didn't have as much muscle as the other two.

"I think Cranky's got something that can help us out, let's head down to his house!" He said as the three began trudging towards the west of the jungle, on their way to Cranky Kong's treehouse.

---

Meanwhile….

"AHHHHHH!!!"

Pandora was still falling to the ground, but she turned around and quickly snapped her fingers.

A Monoeye suddenly appeared under her, as the Goddess of Calamity landed right on it.

The Monoeye slightly bounced her off as she landed safely on her two feet.

"Eep." The Monoeye disappeared in a cloud of purple smoke.

"*Pant* *Pant*." Pandora breathed as she made her way to a tree, leaning against it with one hand while grasping her stomach woth the other. "Dammit, I should've figured he could read minds. He knows magic for crying out loud. Agh!!"

She grasped her stomach tighter, biting her lip. "Quit kicking! We're in the middle of a jungle for Hades' sake, ow! Stop kicking me you little brat!"

That's when the kicks stopped coming from her womb, as she let out a sigh of relief. "Sorry, I know it's not your fault. I put you in danger at a time like this, and I should've been more aware of what I was thinking."

Her eyes widened, she realized something. Vaati was one of Tod's closest generals, he'd likely be loyal and tell the hybrid that Pandora had betrayed them. He would be disappointed, and likely dispose of the Goddess whenever he saw her again.

And dispose of her unborn child.

"I can't let that happen, I need to find help." She sighed again, stretching her back as she placed her hands on it.

"GFFHHMMM."

Pandora felt heavy breathing behind her, large enough to move her hair into her face. The Goddess of Calamity turned around to see a ClubberSkull glaring at her with its one red eye.

"Hmph, what are you so angry about?" Pandora gave him a stern look. "Do as I say you clod!"

She snapped her fingers at him, but the ClubberSkull only blinked. Pandora snapped again, and again, and again.

But nothing worked.

"Oh no." Her eyes widened. "I don't have control anymore! Lord Hades was this your doing? Or-Vaati! I should've kn-"

But the ClubberSkull winded its arm, delivering an uppercut to Pandora as it launched the Goddess info the air.

"DAMN YOU!!!!"

---

Dark Pit and Viridi had climbed up to the entrance of Cranky Kong's cabin, climbing up the letter to the top.

"Let's hope he'll listen at all. He's called Cranky Kong for a reason." Viridi put her hands on her hips.

"Oh please, he's just an old monkey." Dark Pit said as he rolled his eyes. "How bad could he be?"

Viridi gave him a stern look. "Don't say that! Something bad always happens when that's said!"

Dark Pit opened the doors to the cabin, making his way into the slightly darkened room. "Hey Grandpa Kong the universe is at stake and-"

Viridi was right.

Cranky Kong popped up from behind a couch, wearing an army helmet and holding an MP5 in his hands.

"You'll never take me alive zoo workers!" He yelled as he fired off an entire magazine of bullets.

"HEY! WHAT THE HELL?!" Viridi yelled as she ducked to the ground and covered her head.

"I guess you were right!" Dark Pit ducked and yelled back to his Goddess.

"What? Viridi yelled back.

Dark Pit grit his teeth as he covered his ears. "I said-oh forget it!"

Cranky Kong continued pulling on the trigger, but the bullets stopped coming out. The ape looked at the weapon. "Oh, I'm out." He threw it off to the side as he threw away his helmet too.

Dark Pit and Viridi got off of the wooden floor, as Viridi let out a huge sigh of relief. "Cranky Kong!" She yelled. "We're not zoo keepers! Trust me, I hate them too!"

"Pfft, I knew that you two naked morons!" Cranky said as jumped over the couch and took out his cane, walking on it. "We've never had any zoo keepers here at all!"

"Then why did you just try to fill us with bullets?" Dark Pit asked while crossing his arms.

Cranky Kong shrugged. "Eh, I felt like it." He admitted as he settled into his rocking chair. "Now whaddaya two want?! Don't ya have anything else to do in your little Skyworld? Instead of bothering me?"

CRANKY KONG

Viridi frowned. "We would, if we weren't dealing with the possibility of the world ending!"

The gorilla blinked. "Oh yeah, that. Whatever."

"How did you already know? You're not phased?" Dark Pit asked.

"It's kinda obvious, weird buildings in the sky, you two weirdos, and I haven't had any action recently!" Cranky Kong hit the bottom of his cane on the floor.

Viridi blinked. "That last part's actually because your franchise hasn't had a game in a decade."

Cranky frowned in response, jumping off of his chair. "Don't remind me!"

"Well we know what it's like." Dark Pit said. "And what floating buildings?"

Cranky Kong raised an eyebrow. "Are you blind?"

---

The two peeked out of the cabin and looked up into the sky, where there were floating structures. Ones that looked like they came from Skyworld.

"Oh."

---

"I'm sure by the annoying ape screams you heard earlier, my grandson's here with Diddy Kong." Cranky Kong's fingers tapped on his cane. "Which means he'll be here at some point. And I know what that means."

He held up his cane, which caused a few bones to crack. "Ow my back!"

"You mean you're joining us? Just like that?" Viridi asked. "Well we'll need all the help we can get, so thanks!"

Cranky rolled his eyes. "Yeah yeah I've got nothing to do. Plus I'm the only other kong available here that isn't Funky Kong."

Dark Pit looked at him blankly. "Where are the others?"

"Dixie and Tiny are off scaling a mountain, Candy's doing who knows what, Lanky got stuck in a tree." Cranky Kong cleared his throat. "And then there's Chunky!"

A coffin and picture of Chunky Kong was placed in a far corner of the room.

"He's dead."

That's when the DK Rap started playing.

"Huh! D.K, Chunky's dead. D.K!"

The three in the cabin looked confused, as the music suddenly ended.

"Well that's unfortunate." Dark Pit said. While Chunky Kong was a very obscure Nintendo character, it was still unfortunate that he had passed away. "How'd he die?"

---

Flashback….

"I can't wait to go to the moon!" Chunky Kong exclaimed with joy as he was inside of a rocket made of coconuts and wood.

He pressed the big red button, as his rocket launched right into the air.

It went super far into the sky, but exploded.

---

"Well let's not dilly dally! My grandson's probably almost here! So that means that-"

"AAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!"

The screams of a woman echoed from outside, as it got closer and closer.

Viridi blinked. "Whose scream is that? If I can hear it that loudly it's probably not a regular human." She scratched her ear.

"Uh oh." Dark Pit said.

DOINK!

"Put me down you ape! Right this instance!" The woman's voice complained. "I am a Goddess of the Underworld you know! I don't leave myself to take care of animals!"

Viridi crossed her arms, as her eyebrows were moving while she thought. "Hmm, that sounds like…Pandora! What's she doing here?!"

"No clue, but I think she's here for me." Dark Pit said before letting out a sigh. "Let's go see what's up-Augh!"

But that's when Cranky Kong used his cane as a pogo stick off of the dark angel's head.

"Get going ya lazy bums! Pretty sure she found my grandson!"

---

Outside…

Both assumptions were completely correct.

Donkey Kong was standing around with both Diddy Kong and Funky Kong, holding Pandora over his shoulder. He scratched his head with his finger in confusion. "Ooh-ooh?"

He sat her down, causing the pregnant Goddess to straight up. She did not look happy at all. "I'll say, that isn't a way to carry a Goddess!"

"Hmm." Diddy Kong climbed up her and stood on her shoulders, examining her hair. "Eeh!" He reached into his hair, possibly looking for bugs.

"There's no bugs in my hair!" Pandora started shaking her hair in an attempt to get Diddy to get off of her shoulders. "Get off!"

"Alright now what's going on here?!"

The four turned their attention to a crank voice coming towards them, Cranky Kong was in front of them as he walked like he had some serious business to take care of.

Funky Kong smiled. "Oh hey Cranky! We were on our way here when this random lady fell from the sky!"

"I said put me down!" Pandora banged her hand on Donkey Kong's back.

Viridi walked up cockily to the ape and Goddess, grinning right in front of her. "Well well well, look who happened to fall out of the sky, and in the jungle! Guess Hades had no problem demoting his minions."

"Urgh shut up little miss little girl Goddess!" Pandora grit her teeth. "You're one of the LAST people I wanted to see."

That's when Pandora noticed the dark angel standing by the Goddess of Nature, and how he was crossing his arms and just staring at her.

She pointed at him. "YOU!"

"What about me." Dark Pit responded.

"You're the reason I'm here in the first place!" The Goddess complained. "I was told by Tod that you were here, so I jumped to join Vaati in coming h-" She stopped. "Oh…I said too much."

"Ah-hah!" Viridi pointed at her. "I knew something was up! You're working with Dade! You know he poses a threat to the entire universe right? EVERY universe! He destroyed our home too!"

"On with the smash down!" Cranky Kong raised his arms.

Donkey Kong sat Pandora down and cracked his knuckles, an angry expression on both his and Diddy Kong's faces.

Pandora put her hands up. "Wait! wait! Hold on! I'm not here for the reason you think!"

"Oh I'm so down!" Viridi grinned as she took out her staff.

Dark Pit only stared down at the Goddess, as the others looked ready to give Pandora a good old beating from a Super Smash Bro.

He wasn't going to intervene, what did it matter? It's not like there's something in danger if they throw down on he-

But that's when he noticed her swollen belly, which stuck out more than anything else in her appearance. It was even poking out outfit.

"No…no way." Pitto's eyes shrunk, as the upper half of his face became blue. "Guys hold on!" He protested.

They stopped and turned to him.

"Aww what man?" Funky Kong asked in disappointment. "It's just gonna be a funny little cartoon beatdown!"

He shook his head. "Let her speak, it might be important."

The Kongs stared at the dark angel for a few seconds, before sitting down and let Pandora say what she intended to say.

"Thanks, Dark Pit." She said in a middle tone, before standing back up. "Anyways, I had only joined Tod's army because Lord Hades had done the same. Since I serve under Lord Hades, I thought it be the best decision to serve under who he thought was powerful enough. And then…"

"WHAT happened to this?!"

Viridi looked closely at Pandora's swollen belly, looking closely at it with her finger to her mouth.

"It's…strange." The Goddess of Nature examined it more. "When'd you get this? Why are you so fat?"

Pandora looked appalled. "Excuse me?! How dare you call me fat, I am nothing of the sort!"

"What's this then?" Viridi asked while poking at the belly this time. "Looks pretty big, and not metaphorically, it's a big bump! Man I can only imagine what buffet you w-"

That's when the Goddess of Nature felt a slight kick from Pandora's stomach in response, as her eyes widened. "What? No…no. Pandora! Hohoho you didn't!"

"Oh get over yourself! It's not funny in the sligh-oh no."

"Hm?" Funky Kong looked at her with his arms crossed. "Oh snap!"

There was a small bit of water under the feet of the Goddess, as her legs were slightly shaking and her face was pale.

Pandora's water broke, it seems.

"Dammit! Augh! The brat's on its way!" Pandora started stomping on the ground with one of her feet. "Don't just stand there! Help me!"

Cranky Kong itched his beard. "I know what this is a job for!" He pointed up into the sky. "It's a job for Dr. Cranky Kong!"

Donkey Kong stared at him. "Huh?" The ape asked as he scratched his head.

"Come on, you all remember!" Cranky smiled,while everyone just continued to stare at him with dumbfounded expressions. This caused him to frown. "You banana brains!"

He whacked Donkey and Diddy Kong on their heads with his cane, causing their eyes to widen.

The two monkeys looked at each other, nodding their hands and smiling. "Yeeeeaaahh…" Donkey Kong said, being the only English word he could ever say.

"Good! Now let's get on with the procedure!" Cranky Kong put on a mask and a head mirror.

"Just hurry up already!"

---

"Coconut stethoscope."

Cranky Kong was handed what he requested, as he was using the stethoscope on Pandora. Speaking of which, the Goddess was lying on…Funky Kong's surfboard which was on the jungle ground.

Meanwhile Dark Pit and Viridi were standing by, watching.

"Mayonnaise." Cranky asked for, handed what he wanted as he put a small surgical blade in it.

"Sledgehammer."

"How is any of this supposed to help me?!" Pandora asked. "It's a baby not a surgery!"

Cranky Kong threw the sledgehammer away. "It's not! I just wanted to monkey around! Alright, start pushing!"

"I can't believe Pandora's pregnant. I mean…she's the last Goddess I would expect to want kids." Viridi said. "Unless it was an accident, in which it probably was."

Dark Pit had his hands in his pockets, as he was mostly keeping silent.

"Hey? Earth to Dark Pit?" Viridi waved her hand in front of his face. "Everything alright?"

He looked at her switch a frown. "Yeah, why wouldn't I be alright?"

"Weeell you are pretty focused, didn't think you'd care that much." The Goddess of Nature said. "But I guess I'd better help her."

She stepped over to the other Goddess. She took out her staff and brought vines out of the ground, placing a hand in one that was carrying water to place it onto Pandora's head. "Breathe easy, it'll be over soon."

"Please." Pandora turned her head and chuckled. "Don't pity me."

"I'm not." Viridi chuckled back.

Funky Kong raised an eyebrow and looked to the two. "Eh? You two friends or something?"

Pandora shrugged. "We used to be…until we took different sides. Urgh!"

"The baby's coming out!" Cranky Kong explained as he put his hands down, this caused Dark Pit to step behind him.

"Already?" The dark angel asked. "It's only been a few minutes!"

Viridi looked up at him. "Goddesses give birth faster, which is why Pandora isn't screaming as much as a human woman would."

"Still hurts a bit though." Pandora but her lip as she squeezed her hand on a tree vine that Viridi had brought up. "Urgh…Augh…AAAGH!!"

That's when the sound of crying filled the air, the sounds of a small baby erupted from under Pandora as Cranky Kong held up a small newborn baby.

"OWWAAAHH! WAAAHAAAA!! UWAAAHH!!"

"Move it!" Dark Ppit pushed the old ape away and caught the baby in his hands, on his knees as he looked into its upset face. "Hey, hey it's okay. Shhh."

The baby's crying calmed down a bit, shown as it started to open its tiny little eyes and slow her breathing.

It was a baby girl, one who had a full head of hair that was even covering a bit of her face. She also had two tiny black angel wings on her back and red eyes.

Wonder who those belong to.

"Ah. Ahhh." The baby said as she calmed down, seeing Dark Pit.

The dark angel let out a breath of relief, as he smiled at the small child that was held up in his hands. "It's alright kiddo, I've got ya."

"Hhhhhhh." The baby was just staring at him in amazement, before she started laughing. "Ehehehehe!"

This caused Dark Pit to smile a little bit more, while the child he held was kicking her little legs in excitement.

"Heh, yeah. Me." He nodded, before looking up from the baby. He received strange glances from everyone except for Pandora, who was still lying on the ground. "What're you all looking at?"

"Dark Pit, who just goes in to hold a baby that isn't even theirs?" Viridi walked over to him and placed her hands on her hips. "Sire I've told you as an officer to take endangered animals AWAY from scummy humans but that baby isn't a-"

"Yaya."

Viridi turned her attention to the baby, specifically her wings. Her wings were tiny, but full of energy as they would stop flapping.

Something else she noticed was the red eyes that the newborn had, along with that strand of black in her hair.

Viridi then looked at Dark Pit, and then at Pandora, then at Dark Pit again. "No, no way. NO! YOU DIDN'T. H-hold on…"

The Goddess ran over to a tree, leaning against it with her hand while she held her forehead with her other hand.

"Huh? What?" The dark angel looked back to the baby, before his eyes widened. "Wait! No! Oh Hell no! No way!"

Cranky Kong put his hand forward. "Stay calm sonny, I knew EXACTLY how to handle this!"

Cranky picked something off of the ground, setting it down. Dark Pit was suddenly placed behind a stand, along with Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, and Funky Kong standing behind stands of their own.

Meanwhile Cranky Kong was behind a taller stand, wearing a crown and a golden suit. "Ahem." He cleared his throat and a busted his glasses. "Welcome ladies and gentle kongs! To the greatest game show to ever exist in Kongo Jungle, and only. That's right folks, welcome to…ARE, YOU, THE OBVIOUS, FATHER!"

"Here we have my grandson Donkey Kong!" He introduced the Kong, who was eating a banana. "Diddy Kong!" The smaller Kong was picking bugs out of his hat, shaking it out. "Funky Kong!" The Kong was picking his ear, as he took it out and examined it. "And lastly, the edgy angel!"

"I knew he'd say something like that."

"Now, if any of these three monkeys are the father of THIS baby!" He held up the baby. "Then that blue haired woman over there's gonna be facing jail time for life!"

Pandora was stretching out her bones, getting the hang of standing once again. "It's so obvious you know! Do I look like someone who would do THAT with an animal?!"

"Yeah yeah." Cranky wrote her off. "First question! Do any of you have black wings like this little brat?"

"Ba." The baby flapped her wings and clapped her hands.

Donkey Kong scratched his butt in response, putting it to his nose and smelling it. "Ooh banana!" Oh yeah, that's the other word that the ape knew.

"Ooh?" Diddy Kong looked at the finger.

"Ooh!" DK rapidly nodded his head.

Diddy Kong smelled it, shaking his head in response.

Dark Pit blinked. "I have wings."

"YOU ARE THE OBVIOUS FATHER!" Cranky shoved the baby right into Dark Pit's arms, kicking down the cardboard cutout of the game show. "Yeeeaaahh, not like anyone thought otherwise!"

"Uhhh, wait I'm not her father!" Dark Pit yelled as his daughter was smiling. "There's no way!"

"Wait, aren't you a child?!" Funky Kong pointed at the dark angel. "Then that blue haired lasy's definitely getting in trouble!"

Dark Pit squinted at him. "No? What makes you think I'm a child?"

"Discord!" Funky Kong pulled out a computer made of plane parts. "The most reliable source of all!" He looked at the computer. "Aw man I got banned again!" He threw the computer on the ground, breaking it into multiple pieces. "Dumb weirdos hating my opinions."

"No." Viridi shook her head, having calmed down. "One angel year is equal to sixteen human years, so Dark Pit'd be like…48 years old? I dunno."

Pandora zoomed right up to Dark Pit, glaring at him. "YES, she is YOUR daughter. Look at her!"

He looked at the baby girl again, who was frowning in attempt to copy her father.

"But how?!" The dark angel looked angrily at Pandora. "Like…how?! We didn't…"

"We did." The Goddess of Calamity raised an eyebrow. "One night stand, we met at the Underworld club? You know?"

Viridi stomped her foot and yelled. "I told you not to go to that club! You had no reason to be there as a member of the Forces of Nature!"

"Who are you to say what I can and can't do?" The dark angel asked. "I was created AS a member of the Underworld."

"Um, hello? You're talking to your commander and the Goddess of Nature!" The Goddess said.

"Alright alright now everyone." Funky Kong said as he put his hands out. "I think we should be chill, arguing ain't do nothing good! Now blue haired woman, what were you saying?"

Pandora stared at him, before nodding. "Oh right, I came here because Tod made me come."

"Who's Tod?" Viridi asked.

"The guy who you all know as Dade, that is his real name." She explained more. "But…I couldn't bring myself to want to kill anybody here. Especially Dark Pit, because he got me pregnant! But not on that now, Vaati came with me and knew of my plans. And dropped me off, high into the air, with a child!"

Viridi perked up. "Vaati…Vaati. The sorcerer from Hyrule? The guy in purple?"

The Goddess of Calamity nodded her head. "He was set on conquering this island, but apparently he needs some sort of grand banana to do it."

That's when Donkey Kong's eyebrows raised. "Huh?!" He asked. "Banana?!"

His eyes started lighting up in flames, while his teeth were gritting hard.

"Uhhh…yeah Donkey Kong!" Viridi exclaimed. "The scary purple hat man is trying to take the Great Banana!"

"And he's gonna eat it all for himself!" Pandora chipped in, receiving a glance from Viridi. "I don't think he will, but he'll believe it."

"Ooh." DK shook his head, cracking his knuckles. "OOOHOOOO!!" He yelled before jumping forward into the air towards the jungle.

Everyone watched the gorilla jump off.

Funky Kong kicked up his surfboard, pointing towards the direction that Donkey Kong went. "Come on guys! Off to the volcano!"

"Why there?" Dark Pit asked.

"That's where Donkey hides the Great Banana." Cranky said as he began running with his cane, Diddy Kong soon followed suit.

The dark angel looked down at the baby in his arms, who was looking at him with a curious face. "Oh, yeah you need a name I guess."

"She's my daughter too!" Pandora grabbed the baby out of his arms and looked at her with puppy eyes. "Hello there sweetie! I'm your mama! You came out of me!"

But the baby wasn't smiling, nor was she amused. The baby had a frown upon seeing her mother. "Pbbbffflltt!" The baby stuck her tongue out.

Pandora looked disappointed. "Hey I'm your mama! I know you love me!"

The baby didn't say anything, she only turned around to look at Dark Pit. As she attempted to reach out towards him. "Waaahhh!" She reached out in joy.

"Looks like she has a favorite." Dark Pit took their daughter from Pandora. "Kid knows what she wants, right Stephanie?"

That's when his eyes slightly widened, upon looking at her again. "Stephanie, sounds like a good name." The dark angel looked to Viridi. "Hey Viridi, can you make a carrying sac for Stephanie?"

"Out of leaves? Sure." The Goddess nodded with a smile, as she turned around and began wrapping something. "Here you are!" She handed a carrier sewn out of leaves to Dark Pit.

Dark Pit wrapped Stephanie in the carrier, as he looked down at her. "There, you should be-ow!"

Stephanie pulled off a black feather, one that definitely came from her father's wings. "Ehehehehe!" She laughed as she held onto the leaf.

"Alright, you can keep that one." He said as he strapped Stephanie to his back. "Now let's get going."

Viridi went along with him, which left Pandora standing alone.

She blinked, squinting her eyes in confusion. "Wait, don't I get to decide her name too? Can I at least hold her?!"

"Come on!" Viridi dragged her away.

---

Donkey Kong grabbed onto a vine, Diddy Kong was riding on his back as the two swung.

They landed on a tree before jumping onto another, before rolling off of it and landing an a springy platform which bounced them up in the air.

"Wait for us guys!" Funky Kong said as he was gliding on a surfboard.

"These old bones aren't getting any younger you know!" Cranky complained as he was bouncing on his cane.

Dark Pit and the other two were running behind them, jumping onto different platforms and jumping on enemies.

Said enemies came from the Underworld, as he was suddenly hit by a branch.

"Ow! Don't feel even a bit of sympathy for killing these guys?" Dark Pit asked as he shot a dark arrow at a Reaper.

"They're just Underworld monsters." Pandora slashed at a Monoeye with her sword. "They'll come back again, that's how they work. Hey!" She yelled as a vine had caught her.

That's when a Commyloose appeared right in front of the two. "Boooo! Oogaboogabooga!"

Dark Pit just stared at it, pointing his staff up and firing a shot through it. "Did Hades make the noises for them?" He asked as he fell into a hole.

Pandora gave a small nod. "Only Lord Hades would."

"Ow!" The dark angel bit his lip in slight pain. "Stephanie, stop picking off my wings!"

Stephanie grabbed another feather from her father's wings, as she now had a bunch of them in her arms. She had been doing that since they departed.

"Hehehehe!" The baby giggled as she excitedly kicked her feet and held onto the feathers tightly.

"Guess you're not her favorite." Pandora smiled. "Right Stephanie?"

Stephanie frowned at the Goddess of Calamity in response. "Mm mm!" She puffed her cheeks and turned her head.

Pandora looked disappointed. "Brat." She said. "Ow!" She exclaimed as another branch hit her head.

"GET THESE SNAKES OFF!!!" Viridi exclaimed as many snakes were wrapped around her.

---

Somewhere else….

"Hmm."

A figure in purple walked on the solid ground of the jungle, looking around at his surroundings.

Vaati had arrived nearby Cranky Kong's shack, where the group had been everywhere.

"I don't know where that banana could be, but it's somehow the key to a world like this." The sorcerer said. "Ridiculous."

That's when an Erinus walked by, squatting down on his legs. "Ehhhhhhhhhh!"

Vaati turned to the creature, raising a hand and blasted a purple fireball at him. The Underworld creature burned into a smoke cloud.

"Hm?" He asked as he looked down at the ground, noticing something.

There was a black feather on the ground, as the sorcerer picked it up and examined the feather. "This must be a feather from the angel that Pandora sought. Oh? What's this?"

There was an entire trail of black feathers! Almost like they were leading to the location of a certain group of individuals.

Two bat wings immediately popped out of Vaati's back. "What a foolish mistake." He said as he began flying and following the trail.

---

Meanwhile….

"Oohop! Aaahhnap!"

Stephanie cooed as she threw black feathers onto the ground, leaving behind a trail of them. "Hehe!" She clapped and laughed.

"She really likes your feathers, Dark Pit." Viridi said as she noticed the path behind him. "She's already grown really attached to you."

Dark Pit's eye twitched, as he pulled off the leaves and snakes that were covering him.

"I think she just likes pulling on my wings." He answered in a slightly annoyed tone. "Dammit though." The dark angel thought to himself. "She's so adorable."

Stephanie looked at him. "Ohgh." She gurgled.

Pandora shook her head. "I'm surprised she hasn't fallen asleep yet, she's a newborn. Newborns normally fall asleep right after birth! But instead she's already making noises and moving."

"Well she IS half angel and half Goddess, which makes her a Demigod." Viridi said. "Demigods typically develop faster than human babies."

"No wonder she kept kicking me." Pandora looked at Stephanie, who turned her head still. "Sweetie…"

"We're here!" Funky Kong exclaimed as he put his arm up.

The Kongs and the divine characters from Skyworld looked forward.

A giant temple had collided with the volcano, shown how it was built around it due to the universe collision.

Dark Pit crossed his arms. "Wait, don't we have to go to the top?" He was bathing Stephanie in a small river nearby, making sure to keep her head above water.

Funky Kong flashed the dark angel a smile. "Not anymore! Not with my newest invention!"

He pulled up a gun made of wood, throwing it towards Donkey Kong.

"Is that a coconut gun?" Viridi asked.

"It's a Coconut-47!" Funky clarified. "Donkey lost his coconut gun from 99 I decided to make him something better!"

Cranky Kong stroked his beard. "Hmm, I do wonder what happened to that coconut gun."

Diddy King took something out from behind him, it was DK's coconut gun. This caused his eyes to widen, as he looked to the left and right before throwing it behind him.

Donkey Kong aimed at the side of the volcano, before pulling on the trigger and firing a barrage of smaller coconuts from the assault gun. "Ooooohoooo!!" He exclaimed.

Soon enough, there was a path that stuck out on the side of the volcano! Revealing that there was an entrance after all!

"Ohhh I see, it's sort of like my labyrinth." Pandora said while her hand rested under her chin. "There's weird paths, and some are blocked."

"I wonder why that was blocked…oh well!" Funky grinned as he took out his surfboard. "Glad I got to see the Coconut-47 in action! And now we can go through!"

"Ooh!" Donkey put his hand forward in response, shaking his head in response.

Dark Pit glanced down at Viridi. "Can you talk to monkeys?"

"Am I the Goddess of Nature?" Viridi asked a rhetorical question, as Dark Pit stared at her. "Yes, I am." She nodded her head. "Donkey Kong says he wants to do something before we go in. It's something he's always wanted to do."

Pandora blinked. "What? Oh fine, just hurry."

DK nodded with a large grin on his face. "Ooh ohh!" He yelled as he ran towards Dark Pit and snatched Stephanie out of her baby carrier, both Funky Kong and Diddy Kong followed after him in response.

"Hey! She's not yours!!" Dark Pit yelled at the group of monkeys. "Get back here!"

"Weeeeeee!" Stephanie squealed in joy as she was being carried.

Viridi looked duped. "What do they want with a baby?"

---

On a nearby cliff…

Donkey Kong made it to the top of a cliff, where he was holding Stephanie in both of his hands. The baby just had her mouth open and her eyes staring at the gorilla, who was followed by Diddy Kong and Funky Kong behind him.

DK stood at the edge of the cliff, where across the horizon of Kongo Jungle were many animals of said jungle.

Funky Kong took out a megaphone, clearing his throat and turning it on. "Alright DK, you ready?"

The gorilla in a tie nodded, as he held up Stephanie in both of his arms.

Funky put the megaphone to his mouth and sang. "NANS'INGWENYAAAAAAma BAKITHI BABA!!"

Suddenly all of the animals started cheering for no reason at all, as Stephanie was just looking down at all of them. There were so many animals, from lions to elephants to zebras.

But there was one animal that caught the little baby's attention. It was a lone giraffe standing around the side of the crowds of animals, while it only stared at the newborn in wonder.

The two of them stared at each other for a while, Stephanie looked into the wondrous eyes of the animal.

"Eehehehehe!" She laughed while clapping her hands, kicking her legs back and forth constantly.

Funky Kong cleared his throat one last time, singing back into the megaphone. "IT'S THE CIIIIIIRCLE OF LIIIIIIFE!!"

---

The Kongs appeared by the volcano again, with Donkey Kong placing Stephanie right back into Pandora's arms.

"We're done!" Funky said as he crossed his arms and smiled.

The others only stared at him.

Pandora looked down at Stephanie. "Oh I'm glad you're alright Stephanie."

Stephanie puffed her cheeks, only giving her mother a stern look.

Before she immediately started crying. "OOOWAAAAAAHH!!" The baby immediately began pushing her mom away by pushing away from her cheek. "AAHHHAHHHH!!!"

"Told ya." Dark Pit said as he took Stephanie out of Pandora's arms and started rocking her, which started making the baby laugh with joy. The angel was hiding a smile on his face as Stephanie started to calm down.

Stephanie eventually fell asleep, as Pittoo put her back into the baby carrier that was on his back.

"Alright enough jibber jabber!" Cranky Kong yelled as he rapidly waved his cane in the air. "Get in the volcano already!"

Pandora smirked. "Oh please, we don't need an old man to tell us what to do."

Cranky responded by hitting Pandora on the head with his cane, hitting Dark Pit right after.

"Ow!" The dark angel and Goddess of Calamity yelped in slight pain as they grabbed their heads.

"Yeah I'm old! So what?" The ape frowned. "I can still give you two whipper snappers what for!" He said while stomping his way over to the entrance to the volcano.

Pandora rolled her eyes. "I've been alive for centuries, in our own universe that is."

"Guess you're an old woman." Viridi snickered.

"What did you say you midget?!"

Dark Pit turned to the Goddess of Nature. "You're an old lady in that case too, Viridi."

Her eyes widened. "Old lady?!"

"Hurry up gang!" Funky yelled. "There's enough lava to drink for everyone!"

The trio looked perplexed once again.

"Wait, you don't actually DRINK it. Right?" Viridi asked.

Funky Kong scratched his forehead. "I don't, but Donkey did once!"

---

Donkey Kong was seen kneeling over the edge of lava, where he was holding a long straw that went into the lava.

He took a sip from the straw.

"AHHHHHHH!" The ape screamed in pain as his mouth was burned.

But his face went back to being expressionless, until he took another sip.

"EEEYAAAAAHH!"

Once again, his face lost trace of any emotion.

---

"Hmm, I should have found it by now." Vaati murmured to himself while following the black feathers on the ground.

But the trail of feathers ended.

"What?" The sorcerer said as his eye slightly widened. "The trail ends, but it's not really over. It can't be."

He looked up in front of him to see a rocky slope going ascending its curve towards a higher altitude. Upon titled his head up he realized it was a volcano.

"Oh, this must be where the banana is."

Both of his eyes suddenly glowed red.

"Perfect…"

---

"Alright, welcome to the volcano!"

Cranky put his arm out to show off the interior. It was your average basic volcano, rocky ground to walk on, as well as falls and pits of lava.

"Woo! It's feeling a little hotter than usual!" Funky Kong waved his face with his big hand. "Some chillin' under an umbrella and an ice cold drink woulda gone well!"

Pandora looked at him. "This isn't the beach you know…"

"So where's the banana?" Dark Pit asked Cranky Kong as the old monkey was scouting out the interior with his coconut binocular.

The old ape moved his lips. "I think it's at the-"

"Bottom of the lava lake!" Funky Kong said with a toothy smile.

"WHY?!" Viridi exclaimed as everyone looked at him. "What made you think that was a good idea?"

He shrugged in response. "Don't ask me, ask DK!" He pointed to the gorilla in a tie with both of his fingers. This led to everyone staring at said monkey.

"Uhhhh."

---

Flashback…

"Ooohoo!"

Donkey Kong was locking the Great Banana in a giant cage, proceeding to slam it shut and pound on it with a hammer.

"Eeeehhhyaaaa!" He slammed his hammer onto the nails of the wooden boards that were blocking the cage.

He proceeded to dig a hole into the ground, throwing the cage into the ground and throwing dirt to cover it up.

DK proceeded to climb back up the platform and pulled on the lever, with lava pouring into the hole and covering up the hole with molten hot magma.

DK had a stupid smile on his face, giving a thumbs up. "Yeaaaah."

---

Present…

"Yeaaaah." Donkey Kong nodded his head in response.

Everyone looked at him with dubious looks, out of pours shove that he took that much effort to hide a giant banana.

"Well that's just great!" Pandora exclaimed as she crossed her arms. "How are we supposed to get the banana?"

"You won't be able to."

A voice spoke as the lava started to shake inside of the volcano, causing everyone to get into battle stances and stay on their feet.

Pandora's sword appeared in her hand. "Dammit, he found us."

"Who found us?" Funky Kong looked at the Goddess of Calamity as he held up his surfboard. "Oh no, the CIA!! I knew something was weird about that tree!"

A figure emerged from the lava, splashing it away as he stared all of them down with one red eye.

Vaati was floating above the water while being do concealed with a red force field, holding the Great Banana above him.

Cranky Kong's eyes popped out of his sockets. "IT'S MARILYN MANSON!!"

The sorcerer frowned. "No, my name is Vaati. The one who'll be finishing off all of you and taking this island for my own, and then moving on."

"How did you even find us you traitor?" Pandora asked. "What hints gave us away?"

Vaati smirked. "Ironic if you to call me a traitor. But as for how I found you, that trail of black feathers certainly wasn't placed without reason.

Dark Pit and Pandora looked at each other, before turning to Stephanie. "Eeghhdee!" The baby exclaimed as she threw more of Dark Pit's feathers onto the ground. "Huh?" She noticed how her parents were looking at her.

Stephanie had left the trail of feathers.

"Hmmu." Stephanie gave an expression with sad eyes.

"What do you want with the Great Banana?!" Viridi pointed at him. "No really, it's just a big banana. Blegh."

"It's the core of this world, a ridiculous core, but a core nonetheless." Vaati held up the banana, using his magic to peel off the peel of the yellow fruit.

"UrggghAAGGGHHHHH!" Donkey Kong grit his teeth as steam came out of his ears in anger. Witnessing some weird purple guy (not that one) peel away the sacred skin of the Great Banana, this was not a pretty sight for him.

Vaati floated onto the top of the banana, smiling. "Perhaps it will grant me power, it wouldn't hurt to try."

DK glared at him angrily, seeing the sorcerer pick a piece of the banana off.

Vaati placed the piece into his mouth, swallowing it. "Hm."

DK looked even angrier.

"Disgusting." The sorcerer said as he used his magic and blasted the Great Banana into the pit of lava. "What a waste of time."

Donkey Kong's eyes bulged out. "AAAHEEEEY!" He screamed in terror. "BANANA!!!"

"Oh I'm sorry, did I destroy some idiotic food that only a monkey like you cared about?" Vaati could only laugh as he floated with his arms crossed. "I'll have you know that your entire world be destroyed soon anyways, there's no use in cry-"

That set off Donkey Kong, as the ape jumped right over the lava and grabbed Vaati.

He landed on another area of ground and began slamming the sorcerer in multiple directions of the ground. "HAAE!! HAEGH!! HAAAEEYHH!" He yelled. "Mmm-mm!"

"Damn you!" Vatti yelled as DK threw him right into the pit of lava, completely submerging him.

DK let out a breath. "Mm." He said as he only stood.

Everyone else watched in shock.

"D-did Donkey Kong just commit murder?" Viridi asked.

"I…I think so." Pandora answered.

"FOOLS!" Vaati came right of the volcano with his entire eye glowing completely red. "I will not stand for the humiliation given to me by a gorilla!"

Vaati turned pitch black, as two red eyes appeared on the shadow while four arms grew on his body. Soon his crown appeared and one large eye in the center of the body. "Forget taking over or destroying this pathetic island, I'll destroy you insignificant beings!"

"One of them is a baby!" Pandora picked Stephanie out of Dark Pit's leaf carrier and held her up. "You wouldn't kill a baby would you?"

A laser blasted right next to Pandora, barely missing her and her daughter.

"He'd kill a baby." She said as she quickly put the baby back into the carrier.

"Looks like he's throwing a tantrum." Dark Pit whipped his staff out from his hip. "Like a baby when they don't get their way."

Vaati flew right towards the group and threw down one of his claws, as many of them dodged the attack which planted his nails into the volcanic ground.

The two red eyes of the sorcerer's appeared in his back, as he flung to the side in a shadow form and flew right towards Funky Kong.

"Eek!" The Kong with sunglasses exclaimed as he quickly put up his surfboard, which blocked Vaati's claws. "Ha! Gotcha there!"

His eyes squinted in fury as he pushed forward, holding the funky monkey with both of his hands before throwing him right into the ground.

Vaati then leaped towards Pandora as the Goddess turned around.

"Hey Vaati." She gave a sly smile while her back was still towards him. "Here's a betrayal gift."

Vaati grabbed her and turned her around, as all of his eyes widened.

She had a bomb in her hands, as Pandora showed a huge smile. "Something's in your eye!" She shoved the bomb right into his giant eye.

"AUGH!!! MY EYE!!!" The sorcerer yelled in pain as he stumbled back.

Pandora grinned. "Take a gander at that!"

But Vaati suddenly folded his shadowy body over the bomb, as waves of skin popped out. Her face dropped as Vaati's read eyes appeared again, with a large toothy grin.

"Uhh hehe." Pandora gave a nervous smile before quickly dashing away.

Vaati's eyes turned to the side as he dashed at a different angle. "Pitiful beings, so called Gods and monkeys. You think you can stand ANY chance against me?"

"Given how you let said ape throw you around earlier, I'd say we're standing on top of you." Dark Pit hid a smirk while spinning his staff around in his hand.

Vaati teleported right behind him. "Oh really? Well what about…your baby?!"

He grabbed Stephanie and pulled her out of the leaf carrier. "Weeeheee!" She squealed.

"Hey!" Dark Pit grit his teeth as he turned around, aiming the staff right at Vaati. "Put, my, baby, down."

He grinned in response. "Oh I don't think I will. Because young one…" He turned to look into a highly Stephanie. "I'll END you."

The little baby only blinked.

"I'll end your mother!"

"Weeheeheehe!" Stephanie clapped her hands and kicked her tiny legs.

His eyebrows lowered at the top half of his eyes. "I'll end your father!"

Stephanie stopped laughing, immediately glaring at Vaati. "Mmm…ahck!" The baby dark angel cooed as she bit right down on Vaati's hands.

"AAAAUGH!" He yelled as he dropped the baby. "You little shit!"

"Ahhhhhhh!" Stephanie yelled as she was falling, only for Dark Pit to dodge forward and catch her. "Eee!"

Dark Pit looked at the baby as he was running and blasting shots at Vaati. "I have no clue how you bit him, but good job kid."

Stephanie's eyes sparkled, with her shooting her dad a thumbs up. Before looking at her thumb out of curiosity and sucking on it.

"Augh, I've had it with these humiliating tricks!" Vaati shook his hand. "Why not actually try?"

"I'm sorry!!"

An arrow flew through the volcano, as it struck Vaati right in the eye.

"OOOOOWWW!" He screamed in pain. "Who shot me?! With an arrow! An ARROW!"

A young woman stepped out of a corner with her bow being held up. She had purple hair and a purple outfit, along with a less-confidant look on her face.

BERNADETTA

"Good shot Bernie." A slightly older young man stepped out with a bow of his own. He had light green hair and a black mercenary outfit. "Hit the bullseye!"

BYLETH

The queen of Fodlan smiled in response. "Thanks Byleth."

"Oh well well!" Cranky Kong threw his cane to the ground. "More anime hippies! And a different kind too!"

The two of them stared at everyone else, before Byleth blinked. "Yeah…we're here too. You might want to finish off the guy with one eye."

"MY EYE!!" Vaati continued screaming as his eye was now redder than a blood stain in a garden of strawberries.

DK took Byleth's words and jumped onto Vaati, slapping his big ol hand right onto his entire shadowy body. "Egh! Haugh! Eugh Eugh egh!!" He yelled while continuing his slapping session.

"Oh yeah! Get him!" Viridi cheered with Cranky Kong while eating from a bucket of popcorn. "Keep hitting him!"

"You're not my grandson for nothing!" Cranky yelled.

"HhhmUGGGH!" DK threw Vaati right into the lava pit, falling down with him. "AAUUUHHHEEGHEE!" He exclaimed as his butt landed in the lava and launcher him to the rocky ground. "Ah." He said as the flame went out. "Hm."

The group looked at the lava, as it had barely changed from before. Not even a sigh of Vaati breathing in the lava was apparent.

"Oh. Guess he kicked the bucket!" Funky Kong exclaimed. "Woo hoo!"

"Take that you overgrown eyeball!" Pandora pointed at the lava. "Eat this!" She created a bomb and threw it into the lava. "And have another while you're at it!"

"BOMB PARTY!" Funky grinned as all of the Kongs and Pandora started chucking bombs into the lava, with Donkey Kong even chucking three in per throw.

Bernadette pursed her lip and slightly shook. "Um, I don't think that's a really good idea."

"It's just wasteful." Dark Pit was in slight disbelief of Pandora's childish behavior at the moment. He expected this from the Kongs, but even Pandora has some maturity.

When suddenly a giant beast jumped out of the lava and let out an intense roar. "SKREEEEEEEEEEEKKKKTTT!" The creature screamed as it shook the entire ground.

It appeared to be a giant, four headed hydra. With pure red eyes on each head, wings made of black wings, and a black spike ball on his tail.

"SKREEHAHAHAHAHA!" Vaati Hydra laughed as he placed his hands at the edge of the ground. "It looks that oversized banana wasn't as useless as I thought!! I have IMMENSE POWER!!!"

The group of fighters looked flabbergasted. Vaati had not only lived, but he has transformed into an even more powerful form!

"Mmm." Stephanie held on tight to Dark Pit, slightly intimidated by his appearance.

"Now then." Vaati tilted his body up as a giant mouth appeared at the chest of his body. While all of his eyes glowed red and created a red ball of energy from his mouth. "I believe I'll make this…your BURIAL GROUND."

As the red ball of energy was charging up, Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong cracked their knuckles in preparation.

Dark Pit pursed his lip, but soon enough he drew his staff.

Pandora turned to him. "Pittoo?" She shook her head. "Dark Pit?"

"We're not going down without a fight." The dark angel said as he loaded a larger bullet into his staff. "A bullet like this can stop a whale, it'll break him down."

Pandora stared at him, shooting a smile and nodding her head. "Want a blade to go with that bullet?" She spun her sword and aimed it at Vaati, while her back was to Dark Pit's. The two looked at each other and nodded, ready when the other one was.

Vaati Hydra continued charging up his beam. "And now, you will all suffer, and-"

CRACK* *RUMBLE*

The volcano started shaking, which caused Vaati to slightly take his attention off of the energy beam that he was charging.

Suddenly a large rock platform descended from the top of the volcano, landing right on top of Vaati Hydra.

All of the smashers (half of them weren't even smashers) looked in shock.

"A…ugh…..eghhhh." Vaati Hydra's energy orb completely disappeared, before all four of his heads fell right onto the edges of the lava pit.

They all blinked.

"Well that was a bigger disappointment than the end of Mass Effect 3!" Cranky Kong stated, as he walked up to one of Vaati Hydra's head. "Stupid overhyped boss fight." He kicked him in the head.

"I did it!" A cartoony hero exclaimed as he jumped out from the rock. "Easier than Ghoma!"

TOON LINK

The hero of the seas landed on the ground, wiping his forehead with the back of his arm. "Good thing I showed up in time!"

"How…did you get here?" Byleth asked.

"Oh! I woke up in a barrel that was drifting in the sea, and then I ended up ashore." Toon Link explained to everybody else. "I thought I'd just ended up back on the Great Sea, so I went through the jungle and got attacked by a bunch of weird monsters. Then I used my grappling hook to get to the volcano, and I slammed my Skull Hammer onto the big rock that was covering the mountain. Then…here I am!"

Viridi saw that the hero was carrying the Skull Hammer, which only proved his part of the story. "Oh. That's…kinda cool."

"Yeah yeah whatever." Cranky Kong wants his hand. "Let's grab that orange crystal and get on out here!"

"What orange crystal?" Toon Link asked.

"Oh, I know what he's talking about." Pandora said as the Goddess of Calamity reached into her pocket and took out an orange crystal. "I had one already. I think Vaati should have one too."

Byleth and Bernadetta were actually close to one of Vaati's heads, inspecting the eye.

Bernadetta reached to his pupil and pulled out an orange crystal. "I found it!"

"Eye would make an eye joke, but it would be a little cornea." Toon Link laughed. "Hahahaha!" Only to receive weird glances from everyone else. "Get it because, "eye" instead of "I"? Cornea like corny? Haha?"

Their expressions didn't change, nobody was laughing.

That's when Chunky Kong appeared from the roof of the volcano, being held by a rope wrapped around his torso. "Not funny, didn't laugh."

"Hey you're supposed to be dead!" Funky Kong pointed at him.

On that cue, Chunky Kong cut the rope with a pair of scissors and fell straight into the lava.

"Well…that happened." Dark Pit said before turning to Pandora. "Alright, gimme the crystal."

Pandora frowned. "Whatever happened to "please"?" She handed it to him, but it wasn't there! "What? I just had it!"

"*Suck* *Suck*"

Everyone looked alerted to a sucking noise, as they looked at Stephanie.

The baby was gripping the crystal in her little hands, sucking on it as if it was a pacifier.

"Stephanie no!" Pandora grabbed the crystal. "Spit that out! Right now!"

"Aaur!" Stephanie angrily said as she pulled it back.

"Stephanie come on, that isn't a binky!" Dark Pit grit his teeth.

"Hold her still!"

"I'm trying."

Donkey Kong only blinked as his eyes crossed. Until he suddenly started scratching his butt, and then smelling it. "Eeh!"

While Pandora was still pulling on the crystal. "Give, me, the, CRYSTAL!"

As soon as it slipped out of her hands, Stephanie took it out of her mouth and threw it onto the ground. As it shattered into many pieces.

Dark Pit's jaw dropped. "STEPHANIE!" The little baby's eyes started tearing it up.

"No wait! That's what it's supposed to do!" Pandora smiled. "Phew…"

"W-why are we floating?" Bernadetta asked as the group was floating with orange aura surrounding them and you already know how this part goes.

They all disappeared, in a flash.

---

Back in the cave…

With everyone in the cave realizing that they had no food, which they needed to survive. Wario stepped into action and became his fourth alter ego, Chef Wario! And now the fat man was cooking in a giant pot with his love Shokora.

"It smells so good!" Shokora said as she wafted a bit of the soup smell to her face. "Wait, I have an idea!"

"Tell me!" Wario exclaimed.

The princess reached into her pocket and took out a container of milk. "Expired milk!"

"Genius! Pour the whole thing in!" Wario smiled as he believed expired milk was perfect for the soup they were making.

Many weren't really, excited about the dish to say the least. Mainly because it was Wario cooking and the ingredients being put into it were strange!

Which is why others started looking through their bags, luckily they were able to find food that they'd started to set up around the cave.

"I've got a lot of berries." Flame Red as he took out a large pack. "They're good for Pokémon, and humans too."

"I think these mushrooms'll be useful!" Luigi exclaimed as he took out a few mushrooms. "As long as we cut them equally."

"Aren't they like drugs though?" Little Mac asked as he was softening up some of the mushrooms with punches. He received a glance from Luigi, who shook his head in response. "Oh, wonder why Doc didn't want me taking them."

Nia was sitting on her knees, holding her hands over Ethan as she and other healers were still trying to heal Ethan.

"M-mama. Mama." The poor three year old was wriggling, still burning up.

"It's okay sweetie, mama's here for you." She said as she pushed more energy out. "Blimey hell! Work!"

"It's still not working." Queen Nia said, looking up. "Rex! Get over here!"

Both Rex and Stoutheart Rex quickly turned around, as they were turning around a giant lobster that Sans had found. "Which one?" They asked at once.

Queen Nia pursed her lip for a second. "The…younger one."

Rex hurried over as his future counterpart continued turning the sea creature. "How's he holding up?"

"Not good, no matter what our healing doesn't work!" Nia grit her teeth and closed her eyes in stress.

Until she felt a hand placed on one of hers, causing the Gormotti to look up and see Rex smiling at her. "He'll be alright, we can save him." Her husband said.

Nia looked at him for a few seconds, before smiling and nodding. "Yer right. We gotta keep trying."

That's when an orange flash appeared in the cave, soon enough it had revealed the smashers from Kongo Jungle.

DK blinked. "Ooh? Ack!" He exclaimed as he saw King K Rool playing a game of cards at another part of the cave.

"Got any fours?" The Kremling King asked Bowser.

"Go fish."

K Rool reached for the stack of cards, until the newest smashers were caught in the corner of his eye.

His eyebrows lowered in anger as he threw his cards down and stood up. "You!" He pointed.

DK cracked his knuckles.

"Oh I knew you'd get here soon!" He tightened his crown. "Have at you, you ape!"

The two started running towards each other, but were stopped by Cranky Kong.

The old Kong slapped both of them on their faces, frowning. "Oh save it for later! You're both in the same side right now!"

"Oh snap!" Funky Kong hopped over to the pot that Wario and Shokora were cooking at. "Isaac that special stuff stew I smell?"

"You betcha!" Wario laughed. "And if you help out you'll get first dibs."

Funky grinned as he pulled out a chef hat, putting it on with glee. "I thought you'd never ask! Grapes, dead raccoon, whip cream…"

Bernadetta stood still, letting out a small breath of relief. "So…what should we do with this crystal now?"

"Well since we're already here, it's not too useful." Pandora explained to the not-so-self-confident queen. "But it can do something helpful I suppose."

Dark Pit looked down at Stephanie, who was gripping onto his tunic with teary eyes. Of course! The only clothes she had been wearing was the leaf carrier that Viridi made. She must be cold, or too warm.

"Well, I doubt we've got any baby supplies. So I think we could use it to…"

"Give is food!" King K Rool grabbed the crystal and threw it on the ground.

Suddenly tables of all sorts of food appeared around them. Loaded with fruits, meats, vegetables, appetizers, full course meals you name it.

Everyone immediately turned to the food placed.

"Oh." BOTW Link said. "Dibs!"

"You can't call dibs when it all just appeared!" Wolf Link exclaimed as he and his counterpart ran to the table. As everyone continued setting up food and grabbing food.

Dark Pir immediately frowned. "K Rool! What the hell?! We were gonna use that crystal for Stephanie!"

"Who?" The Kremling king asked as he looked at the baby. "Oh. Now YOU have a brat! Whatever happened to my first child?"

A thought bubble appeared over his head, showing a milk carton standing up before falling over and spilling milk on the table.

"Oh Viridi! Thank ya!"

Dark Pit and Pandora looked towards Nia and Rex.

Surprisingly, Ethan seemed all better! He was jumping up and down on his two legs in joy. "Yay! Yay I happy! Weeeee!" He started running around with his arms out.

Viridi rested her staff on her shoulder. "No problem, he just had a really bad fever. He might've caught it from the cave, or wherever you guys were before coming here." The Goddess of nature smirked at Pandora. "Eat it Pandora!"

The Goddess of Calamity blinked. "Como sea, aún te falta." She then took Stephanie out of Pittoo's arms and looked at her with a smile. "Hi Stephy! Mamá te ama!"

"Since when do you speak Spanish?" Dark Pit asked.

"It's my thing." She shrugged. "Right Stephy? Right?"

Stephanie only frowned at her.

Cranky Kong's face dropped. "Wait a minute. She's a villain! Lock her up!"

"Good idea." Dark Pit smiled as he threw a small capsule at Pandora, which trapped her and Stephanie in a large blue bubble.

"Wait! What?!" She exclaimed. "I'm on your side now! Didn't you forget something?"

The dark angel placed a hand on his chin, looking back at her. "You're right."

He reopened the bubble.

But only to grab Stephanie and trap Pandora back inside.

"Oh come on! Stephanie needs her mom!" The Goddess of Calamity banged on the bubble. "Let me out!"

"Think she'd rather spend time with her favorite." Dark Pit shot a small smile as he walked up to Nia. "Hey."

The Gormotti turned to face him. "Oh hey Pittoo, whatcha need?"

"One, don't call me that. Two, I know it's a bit much time ask this, but I know you've got three kids. So…you got any baby supplies you're not using?"

Nia stared at him for a few seconds, before grinning.

"You've come to the right place."

---

Nia took out a blanket, placed it on the ground, and placed a rattle, and a stuffed animal of a giraffe. Next she put down a ring stack toy, and another rattle.

Then Dark Pit dipped Stephanie into the small puddle in the cave, making sure she was cleaned off.

Then he and Nia dried her off with a towel, as Nia set her down and put a onesie on her.

The onesie was completely black, but had a skull on its front.

"There." Nia said as she proudly put her hands on her hips. "She should be comfy now." But then she pursed her lips. "But…she's gotta see."

Stephanie's hair was covering her eyes, she was born with slightly longer hair than other babies.

"Oh, I got it." Dark Pit said as he looked at his wrist. It was a red scrunchie that he'd had on his hand since he joined Smash Bros, it was very special to him.

But he slipped it off and held up part of Stephanie's hair, putting the strap around it as the baby's hair went up.

"Nice." Nia nodded, befire handing a soft and small blue blanket to Dark Pit. "Give her this."

"Alright." The dark angel accepted the blanket. "Thanks, I mean it."

Nia left as Dark Pit looked down at Stephanie, with his daughter staring at him. "Hey."

"…"

"So…what are you doing?"

"Awawaeaeskhkhkh." Stephanie made incoherent baby noises.

"So uhhh…"

"Papi."

Dark Pit's eyes widened in response. His daughter just said her first word! And she was only a few hours old!

"Well." The dark angel was speechless. "You just spoke."

"Bwan-key." Stephanie said as she was reading out for the small blue blanket held by him.

"Oh, right. Here." He handed the blankey to the little baby, who held onto it and held it close to her.

She cuddled closely with it. "Bwankey…"

Then she said something that absolutely shocked Dark Pit.

"I wove you papi."

He only stared at her, he was completely speechless. And his heart was warmed, but he wouldn't tell anyone that. "…"

So Dark Pit say down on the blanket with her, placing Stephanie on his lap as he held her close.

He was her dada.
