"Ugh, my head…"
Mewtwo stumbled around a facility of some sort. Trying to regain his thoughts after his ordeal.
"What the hell-" Mewtwo noticed the device in the middle of the room, "Right. Well, let's take care of this."
Using his telekinesis, Mewtwo took apart the device.
"Hmm, this must be the part of the device that was used to cause all that chaos." Mewtwo turned around. Making and creating a small statuette to the others from the other timeline.
"Farewell, old friends." he said as he left the room.
"Augh!" the sunlight was bright. It was bright, but refreshing. After having a relatively long time in the other world- How he retained the memories of his other self he had no idea, the sun was like a beacon of hope.
Off in the distance, he saw… A Flying Motorcycle?
"Hey Mewtwo!"
"Cloud? Why are you on a skimmer?"
"A what?"
"Wait, am I in the right timeline here?"
"Uh, Mew? You're kinda freaking me out. What are you talking about?"
Mewtwo was snapped from his thoughts by a groan from behind him.
"YOU!"
"Ganondorf!" Mewtwo readied his combat stance. "You aren't getting your hands on this device!"
"I have no idea what Mewtwo's talking about," Cloud turned his flying motorcycle back into its bike form and also readied a combat stance, "But I'm not letting you hurt him!"
*WOOSH!*
"Sorry I'm late." Flash said, "Had to deal with Metal Sonic and his weird time abilities."
"Don't talk to me about time." Mewtwo replied, "I think I might have issues after what I just went through."
*SLAM!*
Iron Man touched down, and aimed all of his weapons at Ganondorf, "make a move, Sauron reject."
"Next time, clone!" Ganondorf snarled, "You won't be so lucky!"
Ganondorf flew off. Heading back to his own place of operations.
"Good move." Iron Man powered down.
"Let's get that device back to the Hotel to figure out what it was supposed to do."
Mewtwo scratched his head for a moment, "Right… Forgot it was the Hotel for a moment."
"Wow. You actually went through what I went through?"
"Yep." Mewtwo replied, "I had to also pull a Logan and go back in time to a different timeline's me to try and stop the whole thing."
"Why didn't you ask the other me for help?"
"You weren't in the other timeline Flash." Mewtwo replied, "Legally, you weren't allowed to even visit. Not that it would matter. That weird Thanos and Darkseid combo-"
"Dark Thanos?"
"No, I think it was Thanoseid. They had a weird attack that would track you. If I recall my other's memories right, they moved so fast…"
"Dude, don't force yourself to remember."
"It's weird though." Mewtwo mentioned, "I still remember everything from the other timeline. Every battle, every base destroyed. Is this some kind of burden I have to bear?"
"Do you remember the times with them that were better?"
"There was the time when we all did a drinking game. Take a shot for every angry comment on the Alien vs. Predator Youtube comments section." Mewtwo pointed out, "We got so wasted."
"See! Good times already!" Flash pointed out, "Hey, did you get any messages to bring back like I did when I rebooted my universe?"
"A few. I have a message from Bucky to Cap that Cap told me to save, one from Red Hood to Batman that the Dark Knight told me to save, two from these two teenagers to Spider-Man where they said they wanted to thank him for being an inspiration to them, and - WOW!" Mewtwo exclaimed, "I have a lot of messages here. Over five hundred photos to go through."
"Well, you better get to it then."
Mewtwo stopped at a small photo. One that was of the entire team looking triumphant.
The psychic left the room. He had a new phone background to be proud of.
"… Bucky out."
Cap stared at the message and took off his headpiece.
"You said you got this from a different universe?"
Mewtwo nodded, "Yep. Was one hell of a universe too. Had some crazy stuff in it that would make a person go nuts."
"Well," Steve got up and placed a hand on Mewtwo's shoulder, "You're one hell of a messenger there, soldier."
"Right. Well, I have to get going. I have some other things to do."
"See you later." Cap turned back to his photo of him and bucky back in the day.
"I take it that Batman is still brooding back in your room?"
"Yep."
"Great. I'm off to fly."
"I still don't get it though."
"Get what?"
Deadpool shook his head, "It's just that, Ganondorf mentioned that he was in contact with his other self, right?"
"Yeah…" Pinkie trailed off.
"So, doesn't that mean that the universe that Mewtwo went to is the product of a paradox?"
Pinkie let that sink in for a moment.
"Oh my Sun Goddess…"
"Yeah. Someone had enough power to create a separate timeline. One where they couldn't be stopped by some fighters."
"Yeah…" Pinkie trailed off, "There's no Spider-Man, no Flash, not a whole lot of fighters in that world."
"Yeah. It's almost like it was built to avoid specific fighters that could do… something." Deadpool pointed out, "Like, have some kind of aspect to them that made them a heroic figure."
"It can't be power. This thing missed Vegeta and Diana."
"It also can't be hope. They missed Captain America and added X." Deadpool added.
"I guess we'll never figure it out."
"Eh, we can bother the Author about it later." Deadpool waved off.
"You said there's a world where people live at this altitude?" Cloud gasped from Fenrir.
"Yep." Mewtwo replied from his rather relaxed position, "They also complain less about it too."
"BECAUSE THEY LIVE AT THIS ALTITUDE!" Cloud yelled before descending into a coughing fit.
Red also coughed, "Are we here to make sure that he doesn't fall to his death?"
Mewtwo shrugged, "Not exactly. I just told Cloud here that there was a world where people patrol the skies on flying motorcycles and he instantly got invested and wanted to make his own team of high-flying heroes. I'm basically here to make sure you guys don't die."
"At least I'm kinda used to this altitude." Tails shrugged, "But I do have to ask why we don't have guys like Kirby or Vegeta on this team."
"Vegeta's a glory hog, and Kirby was too busy eating." Red replied.
"What about Fox?" Cloud asked, "He said he'd be here by now."
"Here he comes now." Mewtwo pointed out, "What took so long?"
"Had to drag this thing out of the hangar bay." Fox replied, "Someone decided to take it for a joyride and was stupid enough to not refill the tank afterwards."
"That sucks. Who took it out?"
"Looked like Carol. Don't know why, she can fly on her own."
"She's probably upset that her movie got put on hold to do Spider-Man's film. Or she had a drinking competition with Stark and Wolverine again…"
"Man… Those guys are jerks for making her go off the wagon like that." Tails mentioned.
"Agreed." Red replied, "So now what?"
"Well, seeing as how we're short our token female of the group that's typically present in these types of teams, we should probably get to stopping some high-altitude crime or something."
"I vote for the 'or something' like patrolling." Red replied, "I doubt that there would be anyone dumb enough to try to do something from this high up-"
"Hey, is that an orbital satellite cannon?" Tails asked, pointing off to a strange object in the distance.
"Looks like it." Fox replied, "Wait… it's turning this way- WAIT! That's a Minion Maker! We have incoming!"
Several large flying enemies launched out of the object, all of them looking ferocious.
"Well, to quote a famous High-Flying Knight," Mewtwo readied his spoon, "This, is gonna be fun."
X: And that was Mewtwopoint of Future Past. Epilogue is done, and we'll be back to our regularly scheduled episodic chapters later in the week. Look forward to Vegeta's reaction to the recent Thor vs. Wonder Woman battle. That's out by this point in time, right?
Wade: Should be. Speaking of time, how did that paradoxical universe happen, and why were there so many heroes not present?
X: Use your brain, Deadpool. Who in this established universe has that kind of power to begin with?
Pinkie: Wait, so this was even more buildup to that big bad?
X: Yep. Fortunately, the universe doesn't take kindly to paradoxical worlds being created and has a means to counter them. Such as making it so that key players will be brought in to fix it. It's a complex thing, but it's best to remember one thing.
Alexis: Tweet tweet?
X: It's freaking time travel. Everyone has their own rules for it, and none of them make sense. Mine just happens to include the rule that other timelines get affected when a paradoxical event happens.
