*Everything is Within Battle (PXZ2 Ver.) From Namco X Capcom plays*
Demitri:I see. So that explains the different new areas in the Makai.
Klonoa:What does Ouma plan to do with what they have so far.
Kogoro:Well given what we have heard,Lord Jedah and the other demon subordinates are gathering souls to no doubt power their project,Byako and Katee are two primary reasons. Byako no doubt is a mere sample of what they plan to finish.
Byako:Wait. They plan to make more than me?
Xiaomu:You did say you are a prototype. No doubt they have more of you.
Byako:That's depressing. Maybe I am just a mere tool.
Kaguya:But you aren't if you manage to defect and join us.
Byako:But.
Mii:Don't worry. Ouma no doubt knew you weren't the real deal. But you can prove you can be better than whatever comes next that is made like you.
Byako:...You're right. I will show her that me and Katee can not be replaced.
Chun-Li:That's going to be hard though. As B. said she came here to capture her.
Dante:Given that she has a golden chain that was of Byaku Shin's power,it would make sense they would try and get you back.
Katee:Why me… Why...Did I..
Momo:You didn't. Saya knows why she chose you. But it was by force. You are not her puppet.
Reiji:How many times should we remind them of this?
Xiaomu:Until they can finally come to grasp who they want to be. Not who they were meant to be.
Jin:I must admit,I didn't expect Bryan would be a part of the problem.
Kazuya:That crazy scientist. It was his fault for making a rival,that Bryan is who he is now. Killing him would be our best option.
Lei:Given how he acted earlier ago,he has no regrets for causing chaos.
Klonoa:Just where did Gantz and Meta Knight go to? We need to find them as fast as we can,Kirby.
Kirby:Poyo!
Klonoa:Say that reminds me,where did that King Dedede guy go too as well?
*Kirby simply tilts his head*
Urashima:Well we should be heading out. Anyone have any leads on where to go next?
Byako:No idea.
Chun-Li:I think I have a good idea on where.
Majima:Shoot,spit it out.
Chun-Li:I suggest we Get Ryu and Ken in this case. Knowing them,they should have encountered something like this.
Jin:I suggest we find others like Akira or maybe any of the future allies we have.
Urashima:Well let's get to it then.
*As the group exit the castle,and enter the DragonTurtle,they notice all of the monitors kept showing the same image. The images fully complete a familiar blade the group knew all too well*
King II:It can't be! Momo:Is that what I think it is!
*The vehicle starts to shake as it goes and teleports immediately,even before Urashima could get to the controls nor Byako could fire a teleportation sphere.*
*Within a garden of Cherry blossoms,a Woman in a red tight suit overlooks a sword that is implanted into the ground. Meanwhile,another girl of the same attire,but having blond hair,appears next to her*
?:Master! How long are we going to wait! Do we have to keep watching this sword! I know it's evil,and it just got here,but do we need to keep waiting.
?:Patience,Natsu. We need just as much waiting as it needs necessary. My blade will seal it once and for all. Besides knowing it's power,I hope that you would help me destroy it.
Natsu:I mean I would,Teach. But I can't just wait for the moment to strike. Besides aren't we ninjas? Shouldn't we just you know,destroy it with our skills alone?
?:Well if you must know,it has been swirling with large amounts of demonic energy. I just hope it hasn't attracted any unwanted attention.
Natsu:Alright Master Taki.
Taki:Wait,I sense a presence. Someone is coming.
?:I knew an evil blade like this would exist in this area. I must cut it down before more come to take the blade. It's evil will taint yet another soul,becoming it's slave.
*A man who wears a mask,and has a wooden arm appears,*
*Brave Sword,Braver Soul (PXZ ver.) from Soul Calibur II plays*
Taki:it can't be!
Natsu:Isn't that old man Yoshimitsu?
Taki:I see who too wishes to destroy Soul Edge.
Yoshimitsu:Hmm? Who goes there?
*Taki and Natsu leap from the roof area they were perched on*
Taki:It is good to see you,Yoshimitsu.
Yoshimitsu:Ah,Taki. I see you brought your apprentice to aid in the destruction of this accursed sword.
Taki:Indeed. Though what I wonder now is how did this blade came here. This castle however has been emitting a strange evil aura.
Yoshimitsu:That was the second reason I have arrived here. This castle is unlike the one many of us have fought at before. I sense an unnatural energy coming from inside.
Both otherworldly and others that are demonic.
Taki:If demons are here,then it is our duty to slay them as well.
Yoshimitsu:Maybe. I have yet to find out just what is happening.
?:What is all that racket? I thought for certain the area was clear of people.
*A few voices is heard from the front doors of the entrance*
Yoshimitsu:Someone is coming. We must head back to that roof.
*The three head back up and hid,as they observe the doors opening. There,Skeletons wielding spears,samurais that are dead,and even samurais that have alligator heads appear next to to men. One had long red hair,while he had a black hat and was in armor. The other was covered in a face cloak,with only his eyes can be seen.*
*Theme of Yoshitsune (NXC Ver.) From Genpei Toumaden plays*
?:Who's there! We know we heard you!
?:Lord Yoshitsune. I suggest we should head back in. Lord Yoritomo requires our presence.
Yoshtisune:I know! But I fear someone might come here to take Soul Edge. Though we have the area secured,I fear someone could get into this area and try to take or worse,destroy the blade.
We must keep the sword safe for our lord,Benkei.
Benkei:We should not need to worry if we have some of Demon Lord Nobunaga's Troops here to aid us.
As for the other Nobunaga,he has sent forth one of his retainers to guard the sword. However I suggest we head back inside. Leave the troops here to guard the blade.
?:Actually,it was wise for you to exit Murasame castle,Lord Yoshitsune. I suggest we have unwanted guests coming here. And I should know.
*A man with white hair,with black like armor,wielding two scythes walks in,with human samurai troops,all adorning the crest of the Oda on their armors.*
Benkei:Ah,Lord Mitsuhide Akechi. I see you came at the request of the human Demon King.
Mitsuhide:Of course. I simply wanted to see the blade up close. And my what a beautiful blade indeed,. The raw power emanating from it is simply magnificent.
Yoshistune:You said that there are trespassers. Where are they?
Mitsuhide:Here,allow me.
*Mitsuhide orders one of his troops,as a marksman brings out a cannon,and shoots a ball straight at the wall where the three hid on top of. The Wall collapses,causing them to now fall and stand onto the floor of the grounds*
Taki:As if I feared. I would have guessed that demons like you would be working alongside to get a blade such as Soul Edge. But what confuses me is Mitsuhide. Are you not of the man who rebelled against Nobunaga. One of your ancestors dabbles in demon slaying!
Mitsuhide:Ah,you must be new to this. But let's say,the Mitsuhide you knew is different from me. I have heard about my clan's history in the world the Genma has come from. And I really hate it. They are nothing but heroes who save the people,rather than slaughtering them. It disappoints me that in another life,I was protecting people.
Yoshimitsu:Just who are you,demonic illusion!
Mitsuhide:Are you death,old man. I am Mitsuhide Akechi,retainer of Lord Nobunaga Oda,ally of the Demonic Lord Nobunaga Oda of the Genma. And even an ally to Lord Yoshitsune and Lord Benkei. And I will be the last thing you will see before you spill your annoying dirty blood everywhere. HAHAHAHA!
Natsu:This guy is beyond crazy.
Taki:Looks like we have no choice now. Everyone get ready!
*Taki & Natsu pair up,Taki taking the lead. Yoshimitsu joins as a solo unit*
Victory Conditions:
Defeat all enemies Defeat Conditions:
Allies are wiped out
*After defeating a few enemies*
Yoshitsune:How long will you fools last? It seems to me,you won't have a lot of time. Because Lord Mitsuhide knew about me sensing you intruders. I called in a bit of help. Meet a good ally who serves the Demon Lord Nobunaga,General Genma,Osric.
*A giant Demon whose mouth is filled with large teeth and two giant tusks appears,holding a spiked club and wearing large clad armor*
Osric:Humans,eh? I've been rather hungry since the last humans I ate. They should make a great meal.
Mitsuhide:Here,allow me to cut them for you. Saves you time and gives me joy.
Osric:Sure thing! Chopping them up means more for me to eat!
Natsu:That's really friggin gross!
Taki:Foul Demons,you won't get away with this.
?:Of course they won't. Do you think that big lug could eat you?
*A Ninja with a yellow outfit appears in a gate close by.*
*Kaeda's Theme I from Onimusha:Warlords plays*
Taki:Wait. I know you! I have heard of you before!
?:Oh do you? Mind telling me?
Taki:You're Kaeda. You are the companion of Samanosuke Akechi!
Kaeda:I see you know what's up at least. But yeah it's me. I came here mainly to scout out what's been going on. And I can see that the Genma are causing trouble. Since I overheard that Lord Nobunaga has been revived,things aren't gonna be easy for us. But now I hear there are two of them? This day just got harder for us.
Yoshimitsu:Where is Lord Samanosuke?
Kaeda:He got caught up,as three other samurais are heading here right now. From what I heard,one is here for those two demons,one is here for the sword,and one is here for the castle.
Didn't catch their names before heading up here. I am sure they will all meet up here soon.
?:Yoshitsune! Benkei! Your time is up!
*A man whose face bears that of demons,having red hair and black and yellow armor*
*Theme of Yoshitsune (NXC Ver.) From Genpei Toumaden plays*
Yoshitsune:Taira! I should have guessed you would come here.
Benkei:Once again to interfere with Lord Yoritomo's plan again. You will learn your place once we have killed you!
Kagekiyo:I won't falter in my quest to kill you again. Your plans to use Soul Edge is but a foolish game. You could not handle the blade itself. Today you die by the hands of Kagekiyo Taira!
Yoshitsune:We were only stopped because of you and your subordinates!
Benkei:We will claim that blade today! You will not hope to stop us!
?:Haven't you demon fools learned from the last time such an event like this happened. The blade will not heed to your command.
*A Gruff looking man in a red,black,and gray armor appears,wielding a long Katana*
*Brave Sword,Braver Soul (PXZ ver.) from Soul Calibur II plays*
Taki:It was only a matter of time until you would arrive.
?:I see you came here as well because of the sword.
Taki:I will strike it down.
?:Get in line,we all wish to destroy the sword.
Yoshimitsu:Be fitting how we four would come to unleash our power to destroy Soul Edge.
I am happy to fight alongside you,Mitsurugi.
Mitsurugi:I do not need compliments. What I need is help.
?:How much evil has gathered here so easily! From Demons,to an evil sword,and to the castle as well. Lord Tokugawa may have overlooked what he had sent me here for.
*A man with a long black hair,tied into a ponytail,while he had a red vest and long traditional japanese wear appears*
*Main Theme from the Mysterious Murasame Castle plays*
?:Even with all this evil,I would have never guest so many have come in the name of justice.
Mitsurugi:Well be aware of the Shogun would send you too,then that means only evil lurks in this area.
?:I know. But it is strange how we all came here to stop it together.
Kagekiyo:Even with all of this,I believe even you,Takamaru,can handle this.
Takamaru:Very well. It is my duty to destroy the evil within the castle.
?:We all came here for the same quest. Let us all go forth and to it together!
*A man with long black hair,wearing red and white armor,appears next to the group*
*Samanosuke's Theme from Onimusha:Warlords plays*
Kaeda:My Lord! You made it on time.
Samanosuke:Of course I have. Now that we are all together,let us join forces and destroy these villains.
Mitsuhide:So you are the descendant I have heard so much about. You indeed look like that of a noble hero. You insult me with your very presence. Samanosuke:You! You are the one who has taken my ancestor's name! I do not know where you come from,but it ends here and now!
Mitsuhide:Oh really. I suggest you might want to reconsider the idea of beating us!
*MItsurugi pairs with him take the lead*
*Samanosuke & Kaeda pair up,Samanosuke taking the lead*
*Kagekiyo & Takamaru pair up,Kagekiyo taking the lead*
*After defeating a few enemies*
Mitsuhide:How much longer do you fools continue to annoy us? Natsu:As much as we need to.
Mitsurugi:Soul Edge! It's reacting!
*Soul Edge suddenly glows,as Four Charades appear Yoshimitsu:I see that the blade has summoned it's minions to guard it.
Yoshitsune:to think we would face off against them as well.
Charade:...
Takamaru:Anyone want to fill some of us in on what those are?
Natsu:Apparently they are pieces of Soul Edge. Beings that are created mainly to defend the blade until it's vessel arrives. We mostly refer to them as Charades.
?:That belongs to me.
*Nightmare appears,as he grabs the sword from the ground and wields it*
*Raise Thy Sword from Soul Calibur II plays*
Mitsurugi:Siegfried! Have you returned to the blade's side.
Nightmare:Foolish human! I am Nightmare! I am not that of the human you speak. He thinks he could beat me,but being separated because of the strange magic has sent me here. I at least have many souls for my hunger! I will take all of your souls!
Yoshitsune:This is the vessel who wielded the demonic blade!
Benkei:Such power! We must take it from him!
Nightmare:You will not have it! You will offer your souls to me now!
Natsu:Great,how are we going to seal the sword now.
Taki:We must try,my apprentice! I will make sure that blade is gone from this world for good.
?:Geez what is happening here! How did we get stuck in this mess!
*A man with pointy black hair,wearing a blue business suit,and a girl with an outfit of a spirit channeler appear on the other side of the map*
*Objection! 2001 (PXZ2 Ver.) From Phoenix Wright:Ace Attorney plays*
?:All we did was go on a trip while on an investigation,and then we are suddenly whisked back to Feudal Japan!
?:Don't worry about it Phoenix! At least we haven't ran into any…. Company..
Natsu:Phoenix? Maya? What in the world are you two doing here!
Taki:You know them.
Natsu:Friends from the future. But that doesn't make sense. Given what we have so far. It seems that the bad guy Mitsuhide is from no doubt a different world. While they are from a different timeline.
Mitsurugi:Is it possible Ouma is behind this?
Kagekiyo:Given how our enemies here were all slain before,then yes they are part of this problem.
Phoenix:At least we found some friendly faces.
Maya:I mean we have if we have the legendary demon hunter Samanosuke and the hero who scaled Murasame Castle are here too!
Takamaru:Wait,you heard of us?
Phoenix:In a sense,yes.
Kagekiyo:Then it's best that you come to us now.
Phoenix:You don't have to tell us twice!
*The two rush over and become a joint solo unit*
*Pursuit ~ Cornered (PXZ2 ver.) From Phoenix Wright:Ace Attorney plays*
*Title Call (PXZ2 ver.) From Namco X Capcom plays*
Chapter 15:It is Feudal!
*After a few enemies are defeated*
?:So this is where the evil we were sensing is coming from.
?:We should do all that we can to destroy it for good,
*A man in a priest's outfit appears,wielding a staff. While next to him is a man with brown hair,wearing giant beads,and wielding a massive sword,while a little girl stays next to him*
*Donovan's Theme from Darkstalkers Revenge plays*
Takamaru:Who are you two?
?:I am Donovan Baine. The man next to me is Bishamon. And the girl with me is named Anita. We have been teleported here by a strange blue sphere. Though however,we were in the midst of dealing with an evil that exists during this era of time. A Demon named Hannya.
Bishamon:I fear the spirit now exists in this area. I can feel his energy lurking in this area.
?:Fool! You think you can seal me again! You are but a weak pathetic human! I will have your body again!
*A blue demon appears at the front entrance of Murasame castle,as his armor is alive*
*Bishamon's Theme from Darkstalkers Revenge plays*
Hannya:You will not escape me again,Bishamon!
Bishamon:For years,you have plagued both my mind,and Orin. I will see you dead and gone from this world today!
*Bishamon starts chanting,as a gold armor that looks similar to the red armor Hannya is.*
*Donovan & Bishamon pair up,Donovan taking the lead,while Anita is part of Donovan's attacks*
*After defeating a few enemies*
*The DragonTurtle arrives near the group,as the group inside the vehicle exits out*
*Trembling City of Aris (PXZ2 Ver.) From Namco X Capcom plays*
Xiaomu:So are we there now?
Reiji:I think we are. Seeing how Soul Edge is there.. But it's in the hands of an enemy.
Nightmare:Who are you! Where did you and the metal carriage come from!
Taki:At first I was a bit worried that you would be more enemies,if not worse,Ouma. But I am glad to see you guys again.
Natsu:Yeah,knowing them,it was only a matter of time.
Arthur:Ah,Master Taki and Mitsurugi. I see you two are in fine shape as always.
Mitsurugi:We must be ready if any enemy comes back from the shadows.
Morrigan:Oh my,What are you two doing here?
Donovan:Demon lords of the Makai. What makes you think I should trust Darkstalkers such as you three.
Felicia:Oh come on,Donovan,give them a chance. They helped us beforehand.
Bishamon:Is that true?
Demitir:Indeed it is.
Donovan:Very well. If you will aid us in stopping the demons here,then we shall help as well.
Pit:Hey,isn't that the samurai guy? The one from the trophies?
Takamaru:Yes Pit,I am indeed the samurai guy you speak of.
Yoshitsune:Damn it! Must they get more allies by the minute.
Mitsuhide:As long as we can cut them down,we won't have any trouble.
?:I sense it…. A large amount of demonic energy. Xiaomu:Hey who said that?
*A Giant fox,wearing a mask,while he has paint brushes for his tail appears in the middle near Nightmare.*
*Accelerating Chaos (PXZ2 ver.) From Namco X Capcom plays*
?:You are the one I have felt. The Evil energy that has been attracting many to guard your blade. I have come in the name of Yami to take you back to him.
Yoshitsune:Who do you think you are to take what is ours!
?:I need not deal with the affairs of the Oda,Genma,Murasame's Statue nor the Genji to do as my master pleases. I,Ninetails,shall take this blade back to Lord Yami!
Xiaomu:Woah! You are Ninetails! One of the dark servants of the dread being,Yami!
Ninetails:So what of it,Werefox. I do not need to answer you. I will do what my master needs.
You all will witness death.
*The tails start painting,as he draws Green Onis to appear*
Mitsuhide:Such power! An opponent like you comes rarely. If i am to kill a myth,this day shall be glorious!
Ninetails:You think a mere mortal could slay me. You will try,but die in the end.
*After defeating Yoshitsune*
Yoshitsune:Damn! And we were so close! This isn't over! I will warn Lord Yoshinaka and Yoritomo! You lot will suffer for this!
*Yoshitsune retreats*
*After defeating Benkei*
Benkei:It is not over,Taira. The real battle has only started. Might as well surrender now. Because time itself shall rise!
*After defeating Osric*
Osric:Gah! Beaten by humans! I'm going to warn Lord Nobunaga! He knows he can beat you!
*Osric retreats*
*After defeating Mitsuhide*
MItsuhide:Hmph. I must say I didn't expect any of you to beat me. But it won't matter. Lord Nobunaga will return with an army to kill all of you. But like I would allow him the chance. Because I will be the one to kill each last one of you.
*Mitsuhide retreats*
*After defeating Nightmare*
Nightmare:Grah! I will have your souls!
Taki:Not this day!
*As Taki was about to disappears via a red sphere*
Taki:What!
Mitsurugi:Where did he go!
Yoshimitsu:Quests for later. For now,we should clear out the rest of the enemies.
*After defeating Hannya*
Hannya:You can't escape me forever,Bishamon! I will always come back,and when I do,you will be mine to use once more. More must suffer for Master Jedah Dohma!
*Hannya retreats*
*After defeating Ninetails*
Ninetails:I have wasted enough time here. With the sword out of our grasp,it will only be time before others arrive of the same power. And once they arrive,Yami will take that power for himself.
*Ninetails retreats*
*After defeating the remaining enemies*
Byako:Finally they are all gone. You guys sure got a lot on your plate.
Natsu:Who's this guy? Is he with Ouma. I'm only taking the guess because of the Katana with him?
Kaguya:They are with us. They actually defected and now fight with us.
Byako:No need to think of us as your enemy. Think of us as your fellow bros.
Katee:But I am not male.
Natsu:Certainly not my bro,that's for sure.
Byako:Well it's worth a try.
Reiji:Was that red sphere yours?
Byako:No. I only make the blue ones. Where do you suppose the red ones are from?
?:From me,obviously!
*A red sphere appears next to the group,catching them all off guard,before them and the DragonTurtle disappears*
?:Can't let them go near this place. Would ruin a small part of Saya's big plan. Of course she would activate me to do the job he can't do now. Well hopefully I get used more than just a small distraction. Well then,back to base.
*The unknown figure disappears in a Red teleportation Sphere*
