At The Mall, 10:15AM
The four friends was split into two groups, whereas Min Min and Byleth are at clothing stores together, while Robin and Terry are at the food court. The mall was crowded, even at the mornings. Min Min and Byleth are the store, that is closer to the food court, so that Terry and Robin can see them.
Min Min and Byleth were shopping and saw fancy clothes that awed them. Ukee was with the girls, still on Byleth's shoulder.
"My, things at the mall are going well for the clothes." The teacher remarked at the clothing she picked out. It was a white floor length puffy dress with puffy sleeves. She then put the clothing back, and Min Min followed her and walked to the section where jeans are there, only to be bumped by a young woman. She was wearing a white shirt with green and black stripes, blue shorts and green shoes. She has long, blonde hair and yellow eyes.
"Oof..! I'm so sorry!" Byleth apologized with a surprised expression, while on the ground. "No, no, no. I apologize for not being careful." The girl that Byleth bumped into apologized, before helping the latter up.
"Huh, you seem similar.." Min Min felt as she seen someone else before, by the time Byleth got off the ground with a help with a young woman. Ukee got off from the Ashen Demon's shoulder and went on the unnamed woman's shoulder, looking around for any similarities that Min Min mentioned.
The teacher got up to the girl very closely and touched her face with her bare hands.
"My, you look just like-" Byleth marked, only to get cut off by Terry's loud, enthusiastic voice. "Hey, Byleth and Min Min! Me and Robbie are about to go to the Japanese restaurant. If you want to come, we'll be ready about five or six minutes." He yelled, cutting off the girl's compliment. "Okay, we'll be ready in about four minutes or so!" Min Min replied back.
"Don't call be 'Robbie', Goldilocks." Robin said as she pinched his face as the two departed to the restaurant. Byleth took her hands off the blonde's face, flabbergasted as she looked at a similar face.
"What a cute little monkey you have here." The blonde girl complimented the monkey to the Ashen Demon and The Ramen Bomber, while petting the monkey, before getting off her shoulder, and getting back on to the teacher's shoulder. "Actually, it's one of my friends' monkey. He's just attached to her." Min Min revealed to the young woman.
"Oh, that's still a cute monkey." The woman kept on talking. "Also, don't you need to go with your other friends? They need you both."
"That's right! I'm sorry!" Byleth realized that she has to go to the Japanese restaurant with Robin and Terry. "Well, we have to go, ma'am. My apologies." Min Min told the girl.
"It's alright. It's good talkin' to you." The girl greeted her goodbye, as the other ladies were ready to head out of the store. "Good talking to you also!" Byleth and Min Min greeted her goodbye as they left the store, leaving the blonde only. However, circulations with the mysterious blonde is yet to be revealed.
Restaurant, 10:20AM
The two girls arrived at the restaurant, its name revealed to be "Saint Sushi". "Robin and Terry must in the restaurant, booking our seats." Byleth guessed as she and her best friend came to the opening and seeing a waiter greeting them. "Hello, young ladies. Your friends had booked you a seat." A waiter greeted them with a smile on his face. "Come, follow me." He demanded the women to follow his path and when he arrived at the table, it was revealed to be Terry and Robin sitting on the table.
"Hey girls!" Terry greeted them with a enthusiastic smile on his face. "Hi, Terry." Byleth greeted him before the two sat down in a table with Terry being between Robin and Byleth and Min Min at the end.
The young man noticed that Byleth wasn't smiling after she sat down, much to his worry. "Why the long face, Byleth?" He said as he pulled the girl for a one armed hug. She saw a young lady that looks exactly like her one of her peers, but tries her best to figure it out. It felt like she had seen her before.
"Oh, errm... nothing. Just a little tired.." The teacher laughed it off, pretending that she was tired. "I was just thinking about training and grading the students' work."
"I have a high expectation that we can win the battle!" Min Min yelled, as she pumped her fists out.
"That's the spirit!" The magician agreed with the ramen lover. Byleth, on the other hand, was not focused on the battle, instead still focusing on the mysterious girl. "I need to get some air, guys." Byleth replied with a anxious look on her face, much to the others' shock.
"Why? What's wrong?" The legendary wolf asked her what was going on with her currently. The teacher got out of a one armed hug, and while she was getting up, Min Min got out of the table so that the teacher could get out. "Nothing, I need to get some air." She replied softly before she left the three, much to the latter three's dismay.
"I wonder what's up with her?" Robin wondered, while watching as the Ashen Demon departed.
Outside of Saint Sushi, 10:29AM
Byleth was not that far from Saint Sushi, but she was outside of the restaurant. Ukee was still with her, concerned about what and why was she in a anxious state. "Byleth! Can you hear me?" A young girl's voice can be heard by Byleth.
"Sothis? Is that you?" Byleth asked.
"How do you not know my name nor my voice?! You know it's me!"
"Anyways, I was going to Hell and checking up what they're doing. They decided not to create an army of villains, but instead they decided to turn the heroes and villains against the mansion."
"What?!"
"Yeah, their first target is you!"
"Why me, Sothis?"
"Sephiroth considered you as one of the most strongest smash fighters in the mansion, and you have me, who can freeze and rewind time. Please try your best not to fall for the trick." A voice of Sothis faded away.
"I have a bad feeling about this..." Byleth thought to herself.
Ukee snapped Byleth out by touching her in the face. She was startled by the little touch the monkey gave her and looked at him. "Why you precious monkey touching me..!" Byleth starts to pinch his face, but softly and playfully. They started to play around until they are stopped by two men.
"Hello, young lady," Ganondorf in a secret disguise greeted the girl. "I'm sorry to interrupt, but may we see you outside?"
Byleth' response was a nod, which was a yes to them. The two villains, Bowser and Ganondorf, were in their suits in disguises, that even Byleth can't notice, due to Sephiroth's dark magic and manipulation. The disguises manipulated not only the girl, but everyone, including her friends, thinking that they were secret agents "Well, please feel free to come with us." Bowser in a suit disguise demanded her to follow them.
The brown simian's eyes were wide, as he realized Byleth and everyone else had been manipulated. He tried snapping her out by touching her face repeatedly, but it function to go on the blink.
They went outside of the mall and headed towards the alleyway where it was very dark. Ukee whined as he was on the girl's shoulder and she was heading towards the alleyway. Ganondorf snapped his fingers, the manipulation has worn off. Byleth groaned, now that the manipulation has gone, only to see two villains, Bowser and Ganondorf.
"You bastards! You should've been in Hell!" Byleth yelled as she walked backwards, seemingly trying to escape. The monkey was very scared for his life and Byleth's life, getting a grip of Byleth's neck. "What do you want from me?" She asked, only to see a dark portal appear in front of her.
"Oh, we're not raping you, sweetheart. We're going to kidnap you.." Bowser revealed to her in a menacingly voice, as the portal reveals to be Sephiroth. The girl and the monkey's eyes were about to jump loose, as horror is about to begin.
Terry, who did not fall victim to the manipulation, is looking for her outside the mall. "Byle?" Terry shouted her nickname while for looking for her. "Damn! Where did she go?!" The man thought to himself, as he was searching for the lady. "Now that Robin, Min Min, and everyone else that are in the mall and outside are manipulated, I'm the only one left and I don't know why!"
However, a scream that belongs to Byleth startled the blonde. "Byle?! Is that you!?" He blurted out loudly, before going to the alleyway where Byleth screamed. He arrived, only to see a floating body of Byleth in the air, with dark purple aura surrounding her. The girl is unconscious, unable to wake up nor move, and had bruises on her belly, face and legs. His eyes widened to see that he saw his best friend floating in the air with aura surrounding her.
"Byleth.. They did this to you.." Terry whispered as he can't believe what he's seeing.
Ukee was restrained and held by the gerudo, trying to save the girl's life. The three men noticed that Terry had arrived, with his serious face glaring at them. The monkey noticed that his owner is now here, crying for his and Byleth's rescue.
"Well.. look what we got here.. Byleth's little "boyfriend" of hers." Bowser taunted the man, as he walked up to him.
"Shouldn't you guys be in Hell after what you just did?!" The man shrieked at the three evil men while balling his fists. "Aww, guess we upset the little lad.." Ganondorf taunted him in a evil gesture, before colliding with his left hand with his right hand that is balled into a fist, emitting dark energy. He then put the monkey down and ordered him to stay put.
"Don't worry.. you shall be punished for butting into this!!" Bowser charged at the fighter with his claws, but Terry shields himself, making Bowser an easy target. He punched the turtle in the gut sending him at the wall of the alleyway. Ganondorf successfully hits the boy with his hand channeling dark energy, but Terry got up and launched him an uppercut. He turned around for his last fighter, Sephiroth.
"So, you've been planning to kidnap Byleth and make her turn against us?!" Terry demanded answers from the one winged angel. "You have read my mind.. Now it's time to annihilate you and your friends." The white haired man chuckled before he charged at the boy with his sword, Masamune. The legendary wolf had been stabbed in the shoulder, blood pouring out. The villain then dropped his sword on the ground that consisted with Terry being stabbed, but still managed to fight.
"Power Geyser!" Terry yelled as he was slammed his fist to the ground, energy emitting from the ground. Sephiroth was hit by the attack, but broke his fall. The tall man chuckled as he snapped his fingers, which Bowser punched him in the back, and then Ganondorf grabbed him by the face, emitting his dark energy and blasting him with it, knocking him out.
Ukee ran up to his owner, started to cry as he seen Terry getting defeated by the three villains. He screeched, in which trying to say get up.
Bowser, Ganondorf, and Sephiroth surrounded the man and the monkey, in which the former had been knocked out. They laughed mercilessly as they watched the poor monkey try to wake his owner up.
"There is no use, Terry. Byleth will be on our side, and nothing can prevent it." Ganondorf grabbed him by the face, causing Terry to wake up. "Byleth.. I'm sorry. I couldn't protect you." Terry apologized in a defeated manner, while looking at the floating unconscious girl.
The gerudo channels his dark energy while his fist is balled, holding the man into his place. "This place will be your heaven!!" Ganondorf yelled, getting ready to punch the living life out of Terry.
However, he was soon stopped by a white sword, putting in in the ground between Terry and Ganondorf. "Make that two against three." A mysterious voice revealed spat their words out. The white sword was now glowing green, harming Ganondorf. The gerudo was hit by the sword's attack, and shouted, "Who the hell are you?!"
The sword now brought to its owner, and it was revealed to be the girl who Byleth bumped into when she was at the mall. She is standing on top of the roof. She wore a short white dress with the back being exposed and her breasts also exposed, though she wore black leggings. She has a tiara that depicted with black and white feathers around the tiara. She had also has long white sleeves and white ankle length boots with golden accents.
"I'm Mythra. That's all you need to know before I beat the living hell out of you three." The woman is now revealed to be Mythra, pointing the sword at the three enemies, emitting light. Ukee was surprised, not just because someone is in now in their rescue, but because the rescuer is the same person who he saw at the mall.
The blonde jumped down from the roof and started attacking her foes. "Lightning Buster!" Mythra shouted as her blade glowed in light and started swinging her sword at her opponent, harming all three of them. She noticed that Byleth was floating in the air, encased with dark, vile energy.
The blonde jumped up and hollered, "Chroma Dust!" The magic beams cleared the dark aura around the Ashen Demon and no longer floating. The girl is descending from the sky, she was still unconscious. However, Terry luckily managed to catch her, despite all the damage he endured.
"Byleth!" Terry shouted as he was on his knees, carrying the girl in a princess style. Mythra started slashing her opponents, appearing and disappearing behind them and slashing them, while the white blade was engulfed by the light. After a huge amount of slashes they received, the trio gotten up from the damage, only for the sword, to be pointed at them by Mythra.
"Come on now, that's all you got?" The blonde taunted them as they were trying to get up.
"Fuck! She's too strong..!" Bowser sputtered out as the blonde looked at him and his allies in a deadly glare. "L-let's retreat back to our place, then." Sephiroth said, before a dark aura appeared, surrounding the trio. "We'll come back for you.. Mythra!" Ganondorf threatened to defeat her before the dark aura devoured the three, departing back to hell.
Ukee came up to the blonde girl, thankful that she had saved not only Ukee, but Terry and Byleth. If it wasn't for Mythra rescuing the three, then the battle would have been over and have deadly results for Terry and Byleth being kidnapped and taken to Hell. Mythra petted the monkey on his head as she kneeled down. However, she is aware that Terry is behind her and turned around to see if he is here so she can bring him back home.
She walked to him, with the monkey following her, and knelt down to Byleth, who was carried by the muscular fighter. "Is she going to be ok?" The young girl asked as sorrow expression appeared on her face. Terry got up from his knees and looked down at the carried young lady. "She's knocked out from the magic.. she can't wake up or move her body." Terry revealed the details to the blonde, while frowning down at the blue haired girl.
Her body felt cold as ice, by the time Terry had catched her, though she's still alive. He never seen a situation like this with Byleth, his and Byleth's relationship were like brother and sister. Ganondorf and Bowser, on the other hand, decided to knock out Byleth and nearly killed her friend, Terry. The blonde young man was thankful that Mythra came in just the right time.
"Here, let's get her home." Mythra said, before she let the fighter let her guide her home. Ukee went on to Terry's shoulder and they strolled to the mansion.
Smash Mansion, 10:50AM
When they arrived, Terry looked at the blue haired girl, still knocked unconscious. Mythra knocked out the door, and the door opened, revealing to be Master Hand. He was shocked to see that Byleth is unconscious in her friend's arms. She had bruises all over her, in which it almost made the hand puke and faint from the sight he was seeing.
"Sweet mother of smash!" Master Hand yelled to be flabbergasted what he seen. "What happened to her?!"
"There is no time! Is there an infirmary around here?" Mythra told him in her worried tone. "Yes, now follow me!" Master Hand demanded the two to follow him as he rushed, and the two listened to him and rushed behind him. They went upstairs and they found the infirmary.
Master Hand opened the door, letting Mythra and Terry in. Byleth was still unconscious not just the beating, but the dark magic that she was surrounded. Terry strolled to the bed and gently laid her down at it. He took off her boots and placed them down on the floor.
Master Hand gave the aid kit to Mythra after grabbing it out from the cabinet and the blonde girl placed it on the table, getting the bandages. Once she got the bandages, she put them on her belly, legs and face. Ukee starts to bawl, by the fact that Byleth is now unconscious.
"It's okay, Ukee. She'll recover soon and better." Terry comforted him with a pet on his head. Robin and Min Min got home, after they realized Terry left the restaurant and headed towards the infirmary, trying to know what's going on.
"Is everything okay in there?!" Robin asked the three, only to see Byleth in the bed, badly injured. "Oh no.. Byleth!" The magician continued, while running up to the girl. Min Min arrived at the infirmary and noticed that her best friend was in the bed. She put her hands on her mouth, and whimpered, "Byleth, what happened to you..?" The ramen lover was shaking in fear as she walked up to Byleth, who is barely breathing.
The white haired woman held her hand and noticed she was knocked out cold. "No, I can hardly feel her warmth.." The magician whispered to herself. She couldn't believe what was happening to Byleth, and held her hand tightly, as Byleth was limp and in deep sleep. Master Hand walked slowly up to the bed, Min Min and Robin made path for hime and touched her body with his finger. He was in shock as he felt her body warmth slowly coming back, but not heavily coming back.
"Guys.. S-She is.." Master Hand blurted out softly and anxiously, much to the others' shock. "How is she?" Mythra asked the master in a worried voice.
"Her body.. it's barely coming back.." Everyone's eyes were about to jump out of shock, as soon as they heard Master Hand's words. Robin started to bawl, and started hugging Min Min, who was also bawling. Terry took off his cap and covered his face with it, while Ukee shed tears while on his owner's shoulder. Mythra, on the other hand, closed her eyes and connected her hands each other, letting the sad moment get to her.
"Byleth, please.. don't leave us!!" Robin shouted as she bawled over the girl's unconscious body. Master Hand took his finger off from the Ashen Demon's body and began to silently shed in tears.
It was a sad day for the four friends. They wanted to have a good day together, but the trio of villains decided to ruin their day with despair and sorrow. While Mythra managed to save Ukee, Terry and Byleth, the latter was in a deep unconscious state where she may wake up in about 1 or 2 days. Mythra had saved them, in which that doesn't make it a happy day for them.
The Dream, 11:00AM
"God damn it! Again!?" Byleth, in her dreams, asked herself with the darkness all around her. However, a voice of a child startled her.
"Really?! I told you to watch out for them!" Sothis yelled at the girl with frustration in her voice. "But you like to be harsh... killing yourself so I can rewind time for you!"
"But, anyways, you're in your dreams..." The young looking girl revealed as she was sitting on a throne. "Gotta rewind time for you.."
"Wait, Sothis! I don't need you to rewind time." Byleth told her, much to the goddess's surprise.
"Huh!? Why not?"
"I don't want to end up the same mistake I did earlier this morning. Outside of my dreams, I can feel that I'm still alive."
Sothis heard the girl's words, and agreed to her now that she can also feel that Byleth is still breathing, in the real world.
"Hmm.. I see.. Maybe I'll try bringing you back to the real world, especially if you're alive. Is that acceptable for you?"
Byleth nodded in agreement, accepting Sothis's question. "Well, here I go, I hope you're ready!" Sothis replied with magic on her hands and set back where Byleth was at the infirmary bed.
Smash Infirmary, 11:10AM
The blue haired lady groaned as she woke up from the knock out she endured. No one was there at the hospital, as of now. "I have to warn Master Hand about Ganondorf, Bowser and Sephiroth escaped from hell." Byleth thought to herself, before getting out of bed with her legs, but they were too sore and painful from the beating, causing her to fall and yelp in pain silently.
A sudden burst into the room revealed to be Terry. His eyes were wide as he saw her alive, thinking that she had succumbed to her wounds.
"Terry?" Byleth looked at him with surprise on her face.
