Prologue: Alpha Anomaly

“If you are to believe that there are an infinite amount of universes with an infinite amount of possible variations on the laws of nature, then you are forced to admit that it is quite certain that in one of these parallel worlds dragons exist.”
― Lewis N. Roe, From A To Theta: Taking The Tricky Subject Of Religion And Explaining Why It Makes Sense In A Way We Can All Understand

The Multiverse. An infinitely large universe filled with infinite universes and dimensions, parallel to each other, home to many wonders beyond Imagination, such as epic struggles between Good and Evil, worlds where mythical creatures are real, where anything impossible is possible.

In the beginning, the Big Bang occurred, and a universe splintered into billions and billions of parallel universes, a Multiverse of worlds vibrating and replicating, came to be.

At times, there are those who know of it’s existence, and those who yet to learn of it, secrets that are known and secrets that must remain anonymous, but there is one great secret to the Cosmos that can change everything…

Somewhere at the very centre of this Multiverse, beyond the corners of Time and Space, exists a world.

A world that exist in this ancient universe where, though some of it’s stars have gone cold, it still shines a single light.

A world that many but a few know of, a world that is well unknown, though it has no name, it can be sometimes known as… Foundation Prime…

It is here that the power Infinite exists, the power of both creation and destruction, Alpha and Omega, pure imagination…

But like all power, some would want it for good… others for evil…

On this planet, the bizarre surface is at times made of both matter and energy, and at times, the living sea of magical energies can at times clash as waves of greyish purple water, spewing up to magically take physical forms of many things, such as objects, buildings, characters and numbers.

No ones knows much of this strange and unknown world, which very well exists without notice for many years, in peace and without disturbance…

Until now…

As a usual spewing of parts of the planet’s surface rises up, it begins to act funny. Suddenly they begin to spin round and around in a circle, until all of a sudden, a vortex opens from within.

And out of the vortex, steps out a mysterious cloaked figure, walking onto the unknown world, while in his hand (which had seven fingers instead of five, much like his other hand), he was carrying a very strange staff, in the centre of the circle on top of the staff looked like a small vortex inside.

As he stepped out of the portal, he took a good look at his surroundings, even though his faces appeared to be hooded, until another figure appeared, this time, it was, what looked like, a robot probe.

The robot probe, in question, had a small robot body which looked like metal sphere with a purple camera lenses stalk sticking out the front, and had two robotic arms (which had what looked like cartoon gloves on their hands) and an antenna to boot.

The two mysterious visitors took a few steps on the planet that they arrived on, just as the portal closed behind them and the fragments of the planet that made the portal fell back to the odd ground.

Soon the figure turned to his robot companion and pointed forward, a sign as a way of saying to start searching ahead, the probe obeyed and continued onward, scanning with it’s optic eye, hoping to find what the figure was seeking, the said figure slowly following behind.

After several minutes of searching, after passing a spew which seemed to take the form of what looked like the number 42, the robot’s scanner went green, meaning that it found what they were looking for.

“Hey, I found a thing!” said the robot happily, only to realize whom he was talking to a bit and acted in character of being a plain robot “Uh, I mean, ‘Anomaly located, Lord Vortech’.”

The cloaked figure, which was named Lord Vortech, used his free hand to take off the hood of his cloak, revealing his face, or practically, his helmeted face, the helmet looking very strange to describe.

He then unclipped his cloak, revealing what he looked like.

He very well looked almost like an Aztec tribesman, practically a chieftain due to the cape, however, the lower robe looked a little torn, same for the cape, for it had several few holes in it.

But the bizarre thing about Lord Vortech was that of his body. For the body looked almost cosmically celestial, as if the body was made out of a galaxy.

“Well done, X-PO.” Lord Vortech spoke, in a wise but also a little warped voice, congratulating his robot minion, X-PO, as he approached to where the robot found the anomaly.

“Yes…” said Vortech, letting out a devious chuckle, “I’ve found it!”

X-PO looked pretty surprised with little confusion to what his master found “Uh… you found it?” he asked, unsure of the unknown claim.

Lord Vortech then explained to his robot servant “After all these years of searching, it really exists… Foundation Prime!” and with a wave of his staff, several small mural pictures rose from the ground, each one showing an image of a different object, some included 7 small emeralds surrounding a large one, and odd-looking canister, a ring and what appeared to look like a cake.

“And Foundation Prime is…?” asked X-PO, scratching it’s side with wonder.

“The very centre of all of Creation,” his master explained, “pure imagination, both energy and physical form, strive here, and it is here that the remains of this power reserved here, after the creation of the Multiverse.” He then looked to the small pictures of the objects.

“This depicts the Foundation Elements – artefacts from the start of creation, scattered across the dimensions.” Vortech continued “and only I can gather them all in one place.”

It is there that X-PO had to interrupt to give out some info “Just so you know…” he stated, “the Foundation Elements are the cornerstones of time and space. So they’re… kinda important. To the… Entire Multiverse.” He explained with a nervous chuckle, worried of what his master was planning, and hoped to he’ll come to understanding.

“Oh, indeed I know…” said Vortech, nice and calmly, X-PO gave a sigh of relieve, happy to know that Lord Vortech knew about each role of the elements, but it suddenly went downhill as he then calmly stated “and your services are no longer required.”

“Wait, WHAT?!” said X-PO, as he panicked at what his master had said and what he was about to do.

“Well, after all,” Vortech explained to his now former minion “I can’t allow you to try and ruin my plans by letting everyone else know about the situation or perhaps appeal to my better nature now, can I?” as he said that, he waved his staff, creating a portal behind X-PO, preparing to suck the poor robot into it.

Panicking, X-PO tried to explain the dangers that Vortech would bring “But Vortech, listen! Some of the Foundational Elements are linked into their respected timelines, think about the consequences of what will happen if you snatch them out of their fixed points!?” Vortech, though not shown due his mask, grinned evilly behind his mask to X-PO as he was pulled close to the vortex, as he continued.

“Plus, the elements can’t be safely harnessed – it’s too dangerous! And what about the pay raise you promised meeeeeeeee?!?!?!” the last segment spoken as X-PO, breaking apart in the process, was sucked into the vortex, as it was then snapped shut by his treacherous master.

With the deed done, Lord Vortech let out an evil laugh as he spoke aloud “I will have them all. I will control their power. I will make universes collide!!”

He continued to laugh, only to suddenly quince in pain as if he had a stomach pain, dropping his staff in the process, soon, as crackling noises came from within him, his right arm suddenly grew large, followed by the left one, until finally his whole body grew until he was the size of a giant.

“NO!” resisted Vortech, who seemed to be fighting back the pain “I will not be denied perfection!” he then suddenly shrank back to his regular size, picking both himself and his staff up, though he wobbled felt every crackling noise from his body, as he even began to cough and splutter a bit.

“My dedication to this work <hak> has taken it’s toil…” he spoke with concern, knowing what was or may become of him “not for much longer can I freely <gasp> pass between dimensions…”

The grunting of pain and the sounds of cracks came to a stop when he felt all right again, as well as he thought up an idea.

“But, there is another way…” he said with interest, as he was ready to put his plans into action.

Soon, raising both arms with all his powers, a giant temple was beginning to take form around him, knowing that Foundation Prime was now going to become his base of operations.

As construction of his palace continued, Lord Vortech laughed wickedly with pride and pre-triumph, knowing that soon, the entire Multiverse will be his plaything and that he doesn't take good care of his toys.

Meanwhile far away, watching the construction and hearing the laughter of a madman from within, another mysterious traveller looked with concern, hoping that someone would be able to stop Vortech, as he then disappeared in a flash…


Somewhere else, beyond Time and Space…

“Derpy!”

The walled-eyed Pegasus gave a startle jump when somepony called out to her, as Rainbow Dash was the one who spoke out her name.

“Gah! What?!” she cried with a startled surprise, as she turned to the rainbow-manned Pegasus.

“Just wondering where…” Rainbow was about to ask about where her friend, Pinkie Pie was when she had a thought, “Wait a minute, what the hay are you doing…?”

Derpy felt a little nervous and off as she said “Uh, do you get the feeling that something really, really bad is going to happen?”

Rainbow sighed at this, “Only every single flapping time I have to talk to you…” she replied as she trotted away, unaware that what Derpy said was about to come true…

Author's Note:

And so it begins, I hope you enjoy the rest that is to come!

Back when I was doing work, I had amazing thoughts of different crossovers between my favourite series, when Super Smash Bros. Brawl’s Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary was released, I had many ideas for a cool crossover, which the plans expanded into a saga idea, called Super Smash Bros.: Dimension Wars, which, like this fanfic, takes place in a Multiverse, with bits of the saga’s plots based off and inspired by the Smash Bros. Brawl adventure story, as well as DC comics’ Crisis stories (Pre-Flashpoint).

The Dimension Wars saga was basically shown via artwork I did back at College, even during free time, and then began thinking up story plots and more.

All of this changed when Lego Dimensions was announced and later on released, which then gave me a whole new fresh idea.

And thus, When Dimensions Unite was born!!

This fanfic story began to revolve in my head, coming up with ideas of different universes meeting, colliding and uniting, all together and in that order.

When watching the cutscenes of the game (Spoilers for anyone who hasn’t played the game yet), I began to think up ideas of expanding the story and add more universes to join the chaos, as well as add some twists and turns.

For planning this fic, to sync well with the mentioned universes, the characters would be original instead of Lego counterparts, thus creating a live version of Vortech and X-PO.

Chapter Notes:

Much like in the opening of the game, one the objects that spew out on Foundation Prime is the number 42, which references the Answer to Life, the Universe and Everything from The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, one of my favourite book series I enjoyed reading

The new design look for X-PO is a bit of a combination between the monitor spheres from the Halo games, as well as featuring a bit of X-PO’s parts with the lenses stalk and an antenna, while did a new look for the robotic arms

The prologue’s ending is based off from the ending prologue of Red vs. Blue Season 13, with Rainbow Dash and Derpy taking Grif and Caboose’s place

That’s all for now and I hope you enjoy the rest of story that is to come!!
