Pre Battle Katee:I wonder,is it possible that Byako could use something as the Hilbert Effect.
KOS-MOS:Negative,Katee. Byako's design couldn't have the ability of the effect.
Byako:You ground see through aliens and I teleport stuff. It's fine if I can't do that.
*Aty & Tessa paired with Arthur*
Pre Battle Tessa:It seems our enemies are ready for us.
Arthur:Right. Aty,Tessa,ready your magic for combat.
Aty:We'll support you from the side while you take the front,Sir Arthur.
Post Battle Arthur:With my weapons,and your magic. We can overcome any enemy.
Aty:Um,Sir Arthur. You seem to have lost your armor.
Tessa:No worries,we can just make one out of magic for him.
*Morrigan & Lilith paired with Ingrid*
Pre Battle Ingrid:So. Belial's successor truly has potential. Even when her power is severed.
Morrigan:Wait,you know about my father? What potential did he see in me?
Lilith:She knows about me as well. Just how old is she?
*Chun-Li & Cammy White paired with G*
Pre Battle Chun-Li:Quite the team we have considering who we fight for.
G:AMS,Delta Red,and Interpol.
Cammy:I sure don't want to be a criminal right now if they are gonna face all three of us.
*Erica Fontaine & Gemini Sunrise paired with Huitzil + Cecil*
Pre Battle Gemini:Aw,you're so cute Cecil.
Erica:Truly a wholesome child.
Cecil:Um,our enemies are here,we need to focus.
*Chrom & Lucina paired with Dan Hibiki*
Pre Battle Dan:Ah,so you guys are royalty? Well I got a special deal for celebrities to enroll in my Saikyo Ryu Training if you are interested?
Lucina:Should we take it,father? It should surely help us with hand to hand combat.
Chrom:I rather we learn from the books Sir Masters gaved us. I'm good with just my sword for now,Lucina.
*Reiji Arisu & Xiaomu paired with Dan Hibiki*
Pre Battle Xiaomu:Wait. Aren't you the guy who knows the Art of Fighting?
Dan:No! I'm the King of Fighters! Master of Saikyo!
Reiji:Strange. I thought he had an orange gi and blonde hair? And I thought your name was Robert?
Post Battle Xiaomu:Heh! What an Easy Win! *perform Dan's winning pose.*
Dan:Of course it was! AN EASY WIN! *strikes his winning pose*
Reiji:What's gotten into you two?
*The group recall their thoughts as they discuss the situation to Aty,Tessa,Chrom & Lucina*
*Unperturbed Footsteps from Project X Zone 2 plays*
Aty:I see. It sure is a handful giving all of the conflict happening.
Teasa:I must admit,this is quite the discovery given all we have seen from this battle.
Chrom:So what's the course of plan,Reiji.
Reiji:So far,we need to contact Urashima. Surely she must still be stuck in Raccoon City.
Byako:We did get summoned against our will. If anything more zombies might show up.
Urashima:Well,not exactly.
*The group hear the communicator Reiji has go off*
Reiji:Urashima! Are you okay?
Urashima:Well that's subjective. It seems I got teleported out by Byaka while you guys got that summoner call. It seems I am stuck back in our current time. But what's interesting is my location. You guys probably remember the reports of the Willamette mall incident,right?
Dante:Is she stuck near the mall in Colorado now?
Katee:Seems like a strange place for her to transport the doctor there.
Peppy:So far,we scanned the area there,and it seems there are two human signatures fighting off against a bunch of unknown signatures. Similar to what you guys mean by zombies.
Fox:Ah Peppy,manage to contact us finally.
Slippy:it took some time,Fox. But we manage to get the intergalactic communicational array to work. Now we can track progress and contact you from here.
Palutena:*telepathy* You also have me and Lady Ishtar watching over you as well.
Byako:I feel as though you did the least to help us. What kind of goddess are you?
Palutena: *telepathy* Should I give you the idea by divine intervention. I think you would be better suited with a black hole and mega laser.
Byako:Fine,sorry oh goddess of light. Geez. Chun-Li:Given what we heard,we should head there now. No doubt one of those signatures must be Frank West.
Byako:Sounds good to me.
*Byako fires a sphere,as everyone enter in it*
*Within the mall,a man in a black coat,black hair,having a camera wrapped around his chest,holding a bat,knocks out another zombie,as a man with yellow hair,in a yellow racing attire helps a small girl with blonde hair into the hallway*
*Frank West from Dead Rising plays*
?:Stay here,Katey. You'll be fine with Mr. Busujima and Mr. Delinger.
Kate:Okay daddy.
?:Don't worry,Mr. Greene. We will do what we can to protect your daughter.
?:Geez. I'm too old for escorting. Are you sure you want me to watch her too?
?:You have to. We will meet you in the safe house on the roof once we're done here.
?:Sure thing.
*The two men exit with Katey,while the man walks to the man who was holding the bat*
?:So,Mr. Greene. Time to clear this place.
?:Listen here,West! I didn't want any of this to happen. One second me and you try to leave Fortune City with my daughter,the next we get stuck in a place I thought was long gone.
Just what the hell is going on,Frank!
Frank:I don't know Chuck. Your guess is as good as mine. If it weren't for that red sphere,we might have gotten rid of T.K.I think I have an idea on just what is going on. You just have to trust me,Bruno,and Rikiya Chuck:... Fine. I'll trust your word and theirs. Just promise me we'll find some Zombrex for Kate before we leave this area.
Frank:No worries. We will be 's just hope we can make it out alive.
(Damn. As if bringing this guy along wasn't tough,we're right back at my most crazed story in my career again. This day just gets better and better)
*Frank & Chuck pair up,Frank taking the lead*
Victory Conditions:
Defeat all enemies Defeat Conditions:
Frank & Chuck are defeated
*After defeating a few enemies*
*The sound of glass breaks as the two hear footsteps on the second floor of the area*
Frank:What was that?
Chuck:Are there survivors still in the mall?
Frank:Maybe. We should-
*A bunch of men in hoodies and wearing bandana masks,wielding pistols,crowbars,and metal bats go down from the stair area*
*Rapid Storm from Project X Zone plays*
?:Look what we got here,guys. A bunch of old ass grandpas fighting without any back up.
Frank:Great. Just what we needed.
Chuck:How did these looters get here? They look like they came right out of Fortune City?
Looter:The hell if I know what happened. One second we were there,taking our time robbing the joints,now we're here. And since no one works here,we got plenty of time getting all the cash we can get.
Looter:Since this mall has so crazy shit,we seem to be fine on supplies. However. We could get quite a bounty capturing you two assholes dead. Maybe the police and government can overlook our simple burglaries if we can catch the guys who caused the outbreak back in Fortune City.
Looter:How about it,boys! Let's catch ourselves some mega bounties! WOO HOO!
Chuck:You guys are out of luck,and out of your minds thinking we would roll over and die.
Frank:It can't get any worse,can it.
?:YOU!
*Frank looks over to see men in yellow raincoats with green masks over their faces*
Frank:Oh great. Why did I have to open my mouth.
?:You are the reason our eyes are forever blind! You killed the one True Eye! And now we shall see the true light,by blinding yours!
Frank:Great,just what I needed. I can't believe you guys are still around.
Chuck:Psychopaths.
Frank:Yep. They once followed a man named Sean. Apparently they are a cult that no doubt started when this place went to shit. I kill a bunch from time to time,because honestly having these guys live would just give the whole town a bad name.
Chuck:Well at least it isn't more zombies we are dealing with.
True Eye Cultist:You may think you can separate our forged path! But one man has shown us the true light! And he will grace us with his appearance soon enough!
Chuck:I thought you said their leader was dead?
Frank:He is. Just who would be the nut job to lead these guys.
*After defeating a few enemies,Gill appears from the middle of the fountain,alongside him isa man with brown skin and light blue hair*
*Nile from Street Fighter III 2nd Impact plays*
True Eye Cultist:Our master has appeared!
Chuck:Who the hell are these two?
Frank:Whatever they are,they sure are stupid letting crazies follow them.
Gill:Foolish photographer. These lost lambs merely have no shepard to guide them. Me and my brother shall see to it that this place be free of the dark plague.
?:So this is the disturbance we overheard from the woman. She must have brought them here for a reason. Then it shouldn't be a problem for us to clear out these two.
Frank:Wait,I think I got a scope of this before. I think the guy with the red and blue is the leader of the Secret Society. And that man next to him is his younger brother.
?:So you know of us,Mr. West. Very clever. But it lacks on what comes next.
Frank:Let me guess,you're gonna kill us.
Gill:My,aren't you the intelligent one. But no matter. We heard about your efforts overthrowing Ouma's plan beforehand.
Frank:Oh you had to bring that up now. Listen are you really going to let them use you too. Doesn't seem really smart to let those guys do this.
?:We are benefiting each other. No way they will just drop our alliance in a heartbeat,you ignorant fool!
Gill:Calm yourself,Urien. We will take our time to convert these two. Just as we did with many others.
*Ebitans,Twelves,and Hunter Type-Gammas appear out of the water of the fountain,while at the entrance of the movieland theater,Davids and Alexs appear. Out of the water again,A strange reptile fish like creature appears,holding a trident*
Urien:So,Goldman has sent one of his experiments to aid us. Very well. Let us take care of these two together.
Gill:Very well.
*Gill's robe and Urien's business suit bursts into flames,showing off their muscular builds.*
Chuck:Was this cult always like this?
Frank:Like hell they were. Geez. First zombies,looters,cutlists,and even experiments. Just what the hell are we doing now. Then again,I certainly had my fair share of crazy shit bad guys during when I helped out against Oros Phlox.
Chuck:Say I have been meaning to ask,you seem to know what's going on. Well what is it.
Frank:I tried to gain a new scope on what was supposed to be the destroyed ship,the Bermuda. Where I met AMS,Interpol,BSAA,you name it. Then I was fighting an actual zombie. Not like the infected here. And he was a dead rockstar. Next thing you know it,I was in for a crazy ride.
Chuck:Are you making any sense right now! What you just said was like talking to a psycho.
Frank:Like I said,you gotta trust me.
Chuck:You better be right.
Frank:Given the trouble we are getting. No doubt we would get help soon.
Chuck:You sure.
Frank:Hey,I've been right so far.
*After defeating a few enemies*
*A red sphere appears on the second floor,as Byaka appears from it*
*Evil Profusion from Namco X Capcom plays*
Byaka:Hello boys. I can see you are doing well dealing with Mr. West and Mr. Greene.
Gill:What do you want of us,machine.
Byaka:Merely visiting. That is all. However I have come here with some new info.
Urien:What new info? Byaka:We got ourselves some old friends that will be joining us shortly. Not to mention a new friend. He certainly has taken his time waiting for the chance to fight. Though then again,his meatball of a brain surely speaks for itself.
Frank:You there! Are you by chance part of Ouma? Given your design.
Byaka:Oh wow,that camera eye really works for you,Mr. West. How about a Photo op while we wait for you demise.
Frank:Hell,might as well. However I don't know what Genre you would fall in.
Byaka:Well if it isn't anything that falls under erotic,I'm clocking out.
Frank:Fine,might as well.
*Frank takes his camera and gets a few shoots of her*
Byaka:I'll bill you if you manage to survive, .
Frank:Yeah let us just see if your word is true.
Byaka:Well hopefully you and your friend there is having fun. Because honestly shopping here must be a drag.
*After a few turns,the group exit out of Byako's Teleportation sphere and end up near Frank and Chuck*
*Trembling City of Aris from Namco X Capcom plays*
Byako:Well here we are. It seems to be quite the place to shop at if it wasn't infested with the undead.
Katee: *eyes turn yellow* Can it,Byako! We got enemies to deal with. It seems our enemies have already started.
Byako:Uh..yes ma'am.
Xiaomu:Woah. Didn't see that coming from you.
Katee:*eyes turn back to blue* I have to at least keep a serious mind in our efforts. Hopefully we made it in time.
Frank:Sure. However I'm confused on how you guys are working iht Ouma now.
Katee:No,I'm not what you think.
Byaka:Maybe they are. Hehe.
Katee:*eyes turn yellow* Who asked you,Red target!
Byaka:My,quite the bite you got there,Katee. I see what our little brother said was true. Well this should be fun. Because well we are bringing in just a bit more help. Mii:What do you mean by that?
Byaka:Oh Mii oh my! You don't know. A certain pair has decided to join the fold.
Ryu:Gill,I see you brought your brother this time around.
Urien:Hmm. The wandering warrior. I see you too,have engaged in the plans made in play.
Gill:It will do very little to overcome what comes next,Ryu. You and your allies will soon witness a great rising.
Chun-Li Quite the battle you got yourself into,Frank.
Frank:It's not my fault,alright. I never imagined a story I tried to get would become a disaster like this.
G:Hmm…
Chris:Is something wrong,G?
G:That creature with them.
Morrigan:Oh,is that Rikuo over there?
Demitri:No,that creature is different from the fish man.
Urien:That is Hierophant. One of the creations of Goldman.
G:Goldman? There's that name again. It almost sounds familiar. Have I faced him before too? Chris:It's a possibility that you may have fought him somewhere down the line.
Katee:Maybe within your future?
Byaka:Well I don't want to leave our guests waiting. Please give a wonderful round of applause together for the return of everyone's favorite pair of brothers,Ein Belanos,and Drei Belanos!
*A strange like lizard man with black shades in strange chinese armor appears with him is a fat giant cat like anthropomorphic man with golden fur around his head and chin appear with strange creatures*
*Dark Target From Project X Zone plays*
?:Hey there everyone. Did you miss us?
?:Certainly if Ouma can't even get their jobs done getting help from so many other guys. If anything,we did this way better.
Kogoro:Well then. Never have I thought to see you guys show up.
Mii:It can't be! How are you guys even out! Weren't you part of the Portalstone!
Eins:Well it's easy. Ask the chick. But anyways,what we want is one thing,revenge..
Drie:You've beaten us so easily over our battles during Oros Phlox's plan. We can't just let that slide anymore. This time,we will succeed in beating you punks.
Ein:Besides,me and my brother have been itching to get back into the fray. So how about you all watch yourselves now. Because we are here to bring the pain!
Byaka:My,so determined. Nice of you two to join us. And I can see you brought some friends. This shall be fun. How about I raise you guys another hand and bring some more.
*Blue Hatters,Red Hatters,Green Bear Natures,Blue Bear Oceans,Maidens,Akatanas,and Byakuya X's appear around Byaka*
Byaka:Whose ready? Because I am certain no one in Shinra is ever ready.
Majima:Heh,as if. Taiga:You just keep sending guys at us,we'll just keep knocking them down.
Byaka:Geez,don't you guys ever stop yapping. Well let the fun begin.
*Title Call from Namco X Capcom plays*
Chapter 28:Dead Rising Upwards
*After defeating a few enemies*
?:GAHAHAHA! IT'S TIME!
Byaka:Ah,the main event has now started.
*A giant man burst through the wooden bench barricade,He was muscular,had some red hat with an insignia on it. He wore a Giant Red Snow Coat,covering his chest that is covered in scars. He wore army pants and spiked cleats. He had a massive beard,and had a scar on his right eye*
*Evil Profusion from Namco X Capcom plays*
?:Dah! So these are Tiny Shinras I heard much about. Not even not stronger for muscles like I have!
Byaka:Of course,Mr. Stone. Your muscles can just about crush anyone.
And my,are they a treat to see.
Gill:Who might he be?
Stone:I am Stone. Many call me the Cold Iron Fist of Ouma. I am leader of Ouma Russia. And I have come to fight tiny shinra and their tiny people. They are not strong as Stone!
I will show them the meaning of power!
Byaka:He's the muscles and leading force of our Russian branch. He's all about proving one's strength through battle or something. Mr. Stone wanted to finally get to the action. A man of that size can't contain his will to fight for so long.
Stone:Who wishes to fight against Stone! I will break you into many tiny pieces!
Byako:Geez. This is just getting weird. Is this really the heads who run something as big as Ouma?
Reiji:I mean there's Saya and Sheath.
Xiaomu:Then there's Masque and Stain.
Kogoro:I think I'm beginning to see the pattern to how strange they act.
Stone:Stone wants battle now. Stone does not wait forever. If you won't fight Stone,then men will start warmups.
*Strange Boulders come out of the ground,only for the bould to break in half as large buff men come out,wearing combat snow uniforms*
Stone:Ah,my fellow brothers! Come now,boys! We shall crush them with our muscles!
Iron Fists:We fight for Motherland and Home!
Kaguya:Well there's something you don't see any day.
Frank:Given what I have seen already,It could be wor-
Chuck:Frank just stop saying that.
Chun-Li:Hold up. I know 't you Chuck Greene,former Motocross racer and participant of the Terror is Reality show?
Chuck:Yep. Let's say things got a little crazy for me more so. Listen I don't care about half of the stuff going on here. I just need to clear this place,and head to my daughter. Hopefully Rikiya and Bruno have some Zombrex for Kate.
Guile:Zombrex?
Lei:I think I heard about that drug. It's what stops the virus,right? Does that mean?
Chuck:...
Byako:If that is the case,we need to find it soon. ,do you keep a watch to watch how long your daughter needs the medication.
Chuck:Damn! You're right! It says that it's almost time!
*The Gate of Resolved Fates from Namco X Capcom plays*
It's about ten minutes before she takes another. If we don't act soon,I don't know how long we can stable the ability to give it to her!
Bravoman:Then it settled,we need to find some fast.
Frank:I doubt they exist here. This mall was destroyed way before the creation of the drug.
KOS-MOS:Actually,Frank. I have scanned the area and found some. It seems to be within the body of Byaka.
Byaka:Oh my! KOS-MOS you kinky girl. Did you even ask me to look inside. My aren't you just that kind of gal. But yes I seem to have stumbled upon it. But if you want to get it. Try beating it out of me.
Updated Victory Condition:
Defeat Byaka in Ten turns to retrieve the Zombrex Defeat Condition:
10 turns has pass
*After defeating Byaka*
Byaka:Now that is just unfair. Fine you win. I'll even be nice and deliver it to her.
Chuck:Liar!
Byaka:I may be evil,Mr. Greene. But I don't go down on my word.
*Byaka teleports out of the area and teleports back*
Byaka:Done.
*Chuck suddenly gets a call from his communicator*
Rikiya:Chuck,something strange just happened! This robotic red woman appeared,but what was stranger is that she handed and administered the Zombrex in her hands to Kate.
Chuck:So you weren't lying after all.
Byaka:Exactly. Frank you might have some change in your pocket now. Consider it a thank you for the pictures.
Hsien-Ko:Only you would take pictures at a time like this.
Byaka:Well anyways,you've beaten me,yadayada. I'm out of here. I can assure you boys take care of the rest.
Gill:We will rid ourselves of the enemies.
you back at HQ!
*Byaka retreats*
*After defeating Gill*
Gill:Must I lose again. No matter. All will eventually return to Harmony. I must leave for now.
True Eye Cultist:Master! What about us!
Gill:I am sure you will handle things here. If you wish,we will retreat for now.
True Eye Cultist:No Master! We will stay and fight in your greatness! You must go and live on!
Gill:Very well. Urien,I leave the rest to you.
*Gill Retreats*
*After defeating Urien*
Urien:Damn to you! I won't let this get to me! I will defeat you to prove that I am better!
Ryu:Better than who?
Urien:Better than Gill. I will lead the Secret Society one day! And when I do,it proves that I should have been the one to lead in the first place!
*Urien retreats*
*After defeating Hierophant*
Hierophant: *Roars*
*Hierophant retreats*
G:Damn,it got away. With more of these experiments keep popping up,it won't be long until the undead become a feasible army for them.
*After defeating Ein*
Ein:Guess you guys haven't lost your touch. But that doesn't matter. All I know is that we are back in the game. And we will certainly come up more often.
*Ein retreats*
*After defeating Drei*
Drei:I won't let this get to me! I will win again! Me and my brother aren't going to let you win the next time!
Katee: *eyes turn yellow* Just get lost!
Drei:You'll see.
*Drei retreats*
*After defeating the remaining enemies*
Frank: Well that clear things up. Now how about you tell us what is going on in the safe room.
Byako:Actually,come with us. We will go there and get the others out and head inside the DragonTurtle. It's safer in a moving vehicle like that.
Frank:Very well.
