"Mewey's story is just so sad."

"I hear you Felicia," Ryu replied, "Having the memories of your closest friends can't be good for the mental stability."

"Mental whatzit?"

The Street Fighter sighed, "The brain health." He deadpanned.

"Oh." Felicia realized.

"Felicia, is there any reason why you decided to interrupt my training session with Mario?"

"Yeah, it's kind of a distracting." The plumber noted.


"Shadow also went through something similar." Sonic noted.

"Oh right. That whole 'living cure' thing. I forgot about that." Flash realized.

"The guy's had a rough time. I'm rooting for him because, well…" Sonic trailed off.

"What? Why are you rooting for the guy?" Flash asked.

"Kind of because the Pokemon fans need to realize that their guys aren't invincible, but mostly because he's already suffered a heavy beating from 'Geets. He deserves something." Sonic pointed out.

"Yeah, I hear ya." Flash replied, "Shads needs to be understood more."

"He's more complex than people give him credit for." Sonic pointed out.

"Much like how many of the fans don't understand Superman." Flash retorted.

"Say, how do you think big blue and Goku are doing, anyways?"

Flash shrugged, "Who really knows? They left before I got here. In fact, they left to go on that adventure before Knuckles and DK got here."

"Right. Forgot about that."

"Where's Shadow anyways"

It was Sonic's turn to shrug this time, "Said something about needing to practice, and sped off. I think he was carrying Iron Man's toolbox."

"I wonder what he's doing right now." Flash wondered out loud.


"I'm telling you Shadow, you can't hack that thing."

"Not with that attitude!" Shadow replied.

Yang sighed, she had come to use the MG so she could practice against bladed foes, but with Shadow occupying the thing, and trying to make it so he could fight against some generic psychic type pokemon so he could be prepared for the upcoming battle. Yang wanted to practice for the upcoming volume.

Considering Shadow's plans, that was obviously not happening anytime soon.

"Shads, c'mon man. That thing doesn't even have pokemon in its databanks. How are you going to get it to summon pokemon when it doesn't even have them to begin with?" Yang sighed.

"Why the hell do you think I'm using Stark's toolbox?" Shadow asked harshly.

"To be honest, I figured you did it because you wanted to prove you could" Yang muttered, "But that's not the point. You don't get prep time, remember?"

Shadow's gaze dropped to the floor. He hopped down from the machine, sat down and sighed, "It's just that… Y'know how the fans are. They'll overreact to anything. Treat having their favorite character losing as if it's an attack on them, and all that crap."

Yang sat down beside the hedgehog and sighed as well, "I know what you mean. Sometimes they act as if it's a crime against humanity, and sometimes they don't bat an eye. It's hard to see their overreactions sometimes, and sometimes, it's hard not to see where they're coming from."

"Tell me about it." Shadow grumbled.

"Something Link told me was, 'laugh at the people who overreact. If they have nothing better to do than to get angry, then they need a life.'" She finished, "Or something like that, I don't remember exactly what he said, I only remember the gist of what he said."

Shadow chuckled a bit, "Yeah… Yeah he has that effect on people. Can hold entire conversations, but nobody can remember his exact words to save their hide."

"You gotta admire Link sometimes," Yang said fondly, "He's an expert at solving both puzzle problems, and emotional or personal problems."

"Maybe he can help me out by giving me some tips." Shadow joked.

"Say…"

"No." Yang replied.

"Wha-?"

"You are not going to ask him for advice on how to beat Mewtwo." She rebuttaled.

"I wasn't going to ask him for advice!" Shadow said defiantly.

There was a beat.

"Really, I wasn't."

Another beat.

"Stop staring at me like that, I wasn't going to ask."

You get where this is going now, right?

"Okay you win!"

Yang smirked, "See, was that so hard?"

"Not as hard as my upcoming fight with Mewtwo is going to be."
