The Final Battle Begins!
Ryker was surrounded by his enemies, they weren’t the biggest army but they had strength. And like an army, if you cut off it’s head, it will collapse, Ryker’s eyes laid upon Thanos. With a devilish grin, Ryker shot towards the Titan, covering his fist in Armament Haki. Thanos did the same and their fists clashed, though to everyone's surprise, Thanos was crushed under Ryker’s strength almost immediately. Ryker then looked upon the others, his eyes darting between Black, Eric, Link, the so-called Terra-Drake, Lucci, the diamond dogs and… even Luco, who held a grenade and a baseball bat with a maniacal grin. Ryker then turns his body into Plasma, which the Sun radiates, and bounces off of thin air. He then shoots himself at Black, covering his foot in plasma.
“Plasma Kick!” Ryker sends a devastating kick to Black’s gut, forcing him to spit out saliva in a Dragon Ball like fashion before the force of the attack sent him flying into some rubble. Ryker then moved on to Eric and shot himself around him, bouncing along the air and making a Plasma Trail. Ryker then stops moving, the plasma surrounding Eric. “Plasma Cage!” Ryker then forces the plasma bars to close in on Eric, and the heat plus the light of the attack causes massive damage on the Shadow Man. Now onto the Hylian, Ryker then gets two pistols out and loads them with plasma. He then shoots around Link, as Link pondered why Ryker was missing purposely he found himself surrounded by aerial Ki mines.
“Boom!” Ryker said with a twisted smile on his face, firing a plasma bolt at the Ki mine causing a massive explosion, onto the Terra Drake. Using what he knows so far he assumed that she controlled the forces of nature, given what her race is and what attack she pulled on him. “Eight Impacts Fist Secret Technique: Drill Dragon Drill Nail!” Slamming his leg into the ground he made an Earthquake that shattered the ground beneath the Terra-Drake.
As the explosion cleared, Link had Nayru’s Love up to protect himself from harm, however it did stop the hylian from being launched.
“Hey, NO!” the terra-drake boomed, instantly quieting the ground. “Bad earth. You calm down.”
Though the earthquake was calmed, it’s damage still caused most to seek salvation in the air. Using his Ito Ito No Mi and his awakened prowess, Ryker touched the floor. The buildings around him turned into thousands of threads, each were sharp and had Armament Haki to enhance the attack. He then fires off thousands of these at everyone.
Link, in a quick movement of desperion, raised his Hylian Shield, equipped his Golden Gauntlets, and activated the strength boost enchant of his armor, to block the shards, forcing the hylian back into a skid.
“Tch,” Spinning his Infinity Blade Thanos begins to deflect the attacks, Elia smartly hides behind Thanos during all of this. Elia helped the Titan out, using her Eliatrope abilities to make a shield behind him, protecting Elia and Thanos.
“Ryker’s taking advantage of our weaknesses,” Entity pointed out, making a firewall and trying to incinerate the flames only for the threads to pierce through it. Flying into the air, Entity spun his scythe around and began to deflect the attacks. Lucci assisted his comrade byd kicking them away. “We need to figure out the weaknesses he’s taking advantage of and try our best to overcome it!”
“Hm, it would seem you ARE sharp.” Ryker said with a smile, Ryker then began to make Shadow Clones using his Chakra, the Shadow Clones flew at Shiva and her allies. Ready for the kill.
“Shark on Darts!” The clones cried out, they all had sharp teeth, akin to Arlongs and they spun around as they approached the family. Thanos however was having NONE of that, flying towards the clones and drop kicking them.
“Netsu-Netsu, Heat Wave!” Clapping his hands akin to the Hulk he sent a devastating wave of heat and burnt the clones to a crisp, “You’re welcome.” Thanos said before flying off and getting punted across the area by Ryker. Link gave the purple man a thumbs up.
“Come on ye bilge rats, come at me!” Ryker taunted, doing a little tap dance. “Or are ye too scared?”
Link cringed at the dancing. “Feels like I’m fighting Majora’s Incarnation..” Link said as he louded an arrow into his bow, empowering it with Light, taking aim at Ryker, and letting the Light Arrow Loose.
“Severing Shadow!” A X shaped shadow blade was sent at the King only to be evaded by Ryker.
“Too slow, Shadow Boy.” Firing off an X shaped Plasma slash towards Eric, it was the same as his ‘Severing Shadow’ but far superior. Eric could feel the heat as it got closer to him, like he was approaching the sun.
Raising his arms he created a barrier of shadow around himself, as the plasma burned through his barrier the king found no trace of the Shadow Man.
“You will suffer for what you’ve done.” Eric said, rising from Thanos’ shadow.
“The fuck man? I did not give you consent to that!” Thanos snapped.
Without hesitation Eric slapped a strip of shadow over the titan’s mouth. “I’d rather focus my anger towards an enemy rather than an Ally, Thanos”
Thanos just stared at Eric, and using his Netsu Netsu No Mi, heat means light, he burned through the shadow. “While you do have a point, fuck off man,” Thanos said, charging up and flying after Ryker. His gauntlet fist began to heat up, “HEEEAAATTT-” Ryker made a portal in front of him, sending Thanos in, Thanos was now in front of Black. “CRASH!!!!” Thanos then punches Black in the face with scorching heat. “OH GOD I’M SORRY!!!!” Thanos yelped.
“Son of a Bitch!” Black growled as he got back up. “And I just got back up as well!” The Saiyan just shook it off as he let out a roar. Jumping straight into Super Saiyan God, him knowing that any other transformation below it wouldn’t be effective.
“Eghehehe! Hilarious,” Ryker said, smiling before turning to Eric. “It would seem like you want to tango with the rango,” Ryker then tap danced on the air. “Hello my honey, hello my baby~”
“Anyone know a Silence Spell?!” Link yelled out to his allies
"Nope!" Replied Thanos, "But why? He seems pretty chill… For now…"
“That's what it always seems like it in Final Bosses, always toying with you until you beat them as they yell in pride how you shouldn’t.” Link said
"Well fuck you too!" Ryker said with a smile tap dancing over to Link, spinning around and kicking Link in his forehead. Link was knocked back, however using this momentum to spin his body around to unleash a flaming spin attack around toward Ryker, alas the attack gave him a tan more than anything.
"Thanks for the tan," Ryker said with a snark before flicking Link away like an annoying bug.
“This fucker is really pissing me off,” Eric said, pulling his naginata from his body. “Even more than the Titan”
“Hey! Call me by my name or I’ll call you by your race, human.” Thanos snapped, Entity chucked his scythe at Ryker only for it to be dodged by Ryker.
“LESS INSULTING, MORE TRYING TO KICK RYKER’S ASS!” Link yelled to Thanos in an attempt to get his head in the game.
"LESS YELLING AT PEOPLE AND MORE TRYING TO KICK RYKER'S ASS!!!!" Thanos snapped back at Link.
“Did I just see Odin’s enchantment?” Ryker said with a blink.
“No,” Shiva growled, hitting him with a pack link. A flash of Nora screaming sent Ryker reeling, as she turned to the titan and shadow man. “Now can you two save your hate boners for later?”
"Dat is gae," Elae said with a click, looking at Shiva.
“Yeah, focus on Irish Boy here!” Black shouted as he got into a fighting stance similar to Goku’s while making a ki blade.
“Agreed,” Sombra said, drawing his swords. “Let’s end this, the longer we fight the harder he is to defeat.”
“Ain’t that every Dragon Ball Villain ever…” Black muttered.
“Alright, Big Bang-” Ryker then grabbed Thanos by the neck, his emerald eyes glowing.
“No.” Ryker said darkly, he then throws Thanos to Black.
“SOMEONE STUPID GET IN MY WAY!!!!” Thanos yelped as he got closer to the Saiyan.
Luke popped up in front of him. “Okay.”
“What da fu-” Black was interrupted as the Titan rammed into him, sending the two falling into their asses..
“Sombra..Be honest with me” Eric said, sneaking a glance at the Displaced then to Ryker. “What are our odds of beating him.”
“Slim...at best,” Sombra said, tightening his grip on his weapons. “And that’s if we fight as one!”
Ryker then begins to dance, having plasma bracelets around his wrists. “Here, take these light up things! IT’S TIME TO PARTY!!!!!” Ryker whooped, he threw the light up thingies and Thanos caught one.
“Want one?” Thanos offered to turn to Black, and immediately it blew up in both of their faces. Making both of them covered in soot. Thanos squeaked in pain for a moment.
“How about no…” Black growled, as he charged forward. Appearing behind Ryker as he prepared a large ki blast in his robotic hand. As he went to fire it, Ryker disappeared, shocking the Saiyan.
“Yoohoo!” Ryker said in a taunting manner he then tapped the Saiyan’s shoulder when he turned to look at Ryker… He saw him in a women’s outfit. “OKAMA WAYYYY!!!! SWAN ARABESQUE!!!!” Ryker then kicks Black in his gut, with enough force to send him flying into multiple broken down houses. “EYEHAHAHAHAHA!!!!” Ryker cackled as this was a game to him as he began to dance like a ballerina.
Out of nowhere, Ryker was hit hard as if a boulder had rolled into him. Indeed he was his by Goron Link who was curled up into a ball. Quickly, Goron Link made a u-turn to come at Ryker. As Goron Link picked up speed, his body suddenly erupted with metallic thorns being powered by magic as he sped at full speed.
Ryker covered his fists in Armament Haki, "FIST OF THE BLACK TURTLE!!!!" Ryker then punches Goron Link as he rolled towards him, a horrifying CRACK could be heard as Goron Link was sent flying. Ryker followed Link, "Off White!" Two thick pillars of threads slammed into Goron Link, sending him to the skies. "Woohoo! He's way up!" Ryker then spins like a ballerina.
Link removed the mask to turn himself to normal, looking a bit bruise up that could have ended badly if he wasn’t in Goron form. Link, using his height to his advantage, he delivers a powerful bolt of lightning empowered by the Quake Medallion coming toward Ryker. Ryker simply used his awakened Devil Fruit to make a wall of threads, blocking the attack. As lighting shot past Ryker. “Hylia damnit..” Link said as he landed a distance away as his mind raced to think up an effective attack.
“Great, he knows Bon Clay’s fighting Style” Eric said out loud before coating his arms and legs in Armament Haki, His arms and legs began to take on a slight reddish hue rather than the usual jet black.
“Nice Armament Haki bro, but mine’s better,” Ryker covered his hand in Ryou Haki and slammed his fist into Eric’s head, doing a Karate Chop, but it was way more feminine. “Crossdresser Chop!” Eric hit the floor like a bag of bricks, his whole body was buried except for his head. Ryker then spins away, scatting while he does so.
Kodo and Celine raced forward, their pack links making them glow as one. Kodo delivered a series of slashes and cuts to the Irish King, but when he moved to retaliate, Celine spun into Kodo’s place, redirecting his attack.
“BAHAHAHAHA!!!” Thanos laughed at Eric as he ran past the Shadow Man, “Infernal Rainshower!” Using Ryou Haki to enhance his punches, Thanos began to shoot his fists at Ryker at a rapid pace. However the blows were evaded as Ryker spun around like a ballerina before kicking Thanos in his gut.
A demonic aura began to cover Sombra as he held his blade. “Demon Aura: Nine Sword Style…” Sombra rushed Ryker. “Piercing Might!” Sombra begins slashing at the King only to being sent back by a single flick of his finger
“Don’t you guys see the pattern here? You guys can’t touch me.” Ryker said, and immediately after Thanos flew at Ryker and slammed his fist into Ryker’s schnoz. Ryker reeled back from the blow, nearly knocking him over. “Okay, you guys can’t cause serious damage to me.”
His words was halted when a bang rang out causing Ryker to turn his gaze to his now bleeding cheek
“My point still stands,” Ryker replied blankly.
“TRY THIS ONE FOR SIZE THEN!” Link yelled as he came charging at Ryker with Megaton hammer raised to clubber the son of a bitch. Ryker just pulled out some frozen chicken and the hammer slammed into the Irish King. Making an explosion of blue when the dust cleared it showed Ryker eating his now roasted chicken.
"Like I said," Ryker said, his mouth full. "My point still stands."
"Not gonna lie, I'm going to be pissed if there's a target on your body that unleashes damage upon you that we have to hit.” Link said as he took a backflip away from Ryker.
“Well, the fight just started.” Black said as he inighted his aura, it burst around him in flames.
“And if we can’t break your body,” Shiva growled, as her pack links hovered up above her like spears. “I will break your mind.”
“You can’t touch my mind, I’ve seen hell, you know NOTHING of it. Oh and before you fucking start, don’t you dare throw that link missie,” Ryker warned with a frown.
“So why don’t you start small? Why are you going Super Saiyan God? Save it for later for gosh sake,” Ryker said, waving his hand. “It’s Anime Logic, go Super Saiyan, Super Saiyan Two, then Super Saiyan Three, THEN go into Super Saiyan God.”
“Cause this level of power is needed, and we’re not in an anime…” Black explained as he began to gather power.
“Agreed” Eric said as shadows began to gather around him. “Savage Shadow Soul: Soul of the Savage King”
“Oh the irony here is amazing,” Ryker said, smiling as he pointed at Eric.
Unlike his previous use of his King soul he hadn’t grown like before, instead he had a armor breast plast along with gauntlets adorning his body, a black crown sat atop his head. Shadows flooded his body like a raging river
Ryker began to clap slowly and condescendingly as he looked at Eric’s new form. “You hate corrupted kings and your Savage Shadow Souls corrupts you, how ironic. The irony here is AMAZING like seriously it’s shocking. I’m applauding you, do you see me clapping very, very, slowly and condescendingly?” Ryker said, tilting his head as he continued to clap… Very slowly.
“You talk too hylia damned much…” Link said as he reached up to put on the fierce deity mask, once again exploding in a burst of blue light to ascend the form. “And I hate it when villians and final bosses talk too much!” Link said as his body bulked up into a hybrid lion deity, however instead of yellow fur, it was white.
Shiva growled, before slamming her claws together. “Strength of the wolf…” she whispered, as her own army of glowing diamond dog spirits arose as well.
Eric said nothing as the shadows began to rise, taking the shape of his various transformations.
“Get him” Eric ordered as his reapers, knights’ and Demons charged the King.
At the same time, Shiva howled, and her own spirits joined Eric’s charge. An army of light and shadows combined together, racing for the Irish King.
“Your army against mine,” Ryker said as he leaned back in his newly made chair he made with his Chaos Magic. Multiple Shadow Clones of him pop into view. They all activate their Devil Fruit Powers, some going for his Ito Ito Powers, some going for his Plasma Plasma. The point was, it was clones against clones.
“You will not win,” Eric said to Ryker as both sides lost fighters. “We will stop you, and you will pay for your crimes”
“Hypocritical much? You claim you want to stop me of my crimes, but what of yours? You have done countless war crimes, killed countless people, you’re no different than I. Infact, we are much alike as much as you hate to admit it.” Ryker said, getting a smoothie out of thin air and drinking it. “Banana strawberry, my favorite…”
Deity Link raised his blade as light, fire, and ice fused with his Helix Sword, causing the blade to grow slightly in size.
“You may be right Ryker, but that doesn’t mean I will become you” Eric said lifting himself off the ground
“Uh huh, so you want to kill me because I am like you, should you… I don’t know uh… Commit the art of self death?” Ryker said, teleporting before Eric, he was above the Shadow Man. Using Plasma like Kizaru would use his light, Ryker kicked Eric.
However he was blocked by multiple shadow Reapers
“Hm, loyal to a false king, how ridiculous.” Ryker mused before bursting in a fit of light, nowhere to be seen.
“At least they are Loyal to a king who doesn’t use them as pawns” Eric said blasting Ryker’s clones with a flurry of Shadow orbs
“You’re using them as pawns now!” Ryker exclaimed, “You’re using them to fight me, ordering them like puppets to do your bidding!” Ryker said, his voice coming from everywhere yet his voice seemed to be right in Eric’s ear.
“I have little to no control of what they do.” Eric said using his power to create his Savage transformations. “I just tell them what I wish, it’s up to them to attack or defend”
“Well, you’re boring so I’ll move on to Black, a real warrior. And not someone who hides behind their puppets, tata~” Ryker appeared next to Black. “Greetings.”
As this happened, Black jumped back, firing a barrage of ki blasts that made an impact with the Irish man. As Black landed, the smoke cleared and revealed Ryker took no damage.
“Come on Black, you and I both know that this trick NEVER works.” Ryker then took up a fighting stance, “Now, let’s dance.” Ryker said with a smile.
“Tsk…” Black growled as he took up a stance. The two remained unmoving until the movement of a small pebble. Black shot forward as he disappeared multiple times in the air before reappearing in front of Ryker. At that moment, Black covered his right arm in Armament Haki as he threw a punch. But Ryker lifted up one finger to stop the attack.
“Hm, impressive, “ Ryker said in a Shaggy-like tone, “You made me use one percent of my power.” Ryker jokes, laughing like a Hyena.
“OH Shut up!” Black shouted as he covered his robotic arm in Armament Haki, then proceeded to throw hundreds of attacks at Ryker. But he blocked every single one of them, this time using his hand. Every impact made a shockwave then pulsated around the area.
“Hmph!” Ryker’s aura pushed Black a good ways away. Ryker raised a leg and beneath his foot three Ki orbs formed, “I love that dog,” Ryker said with a smile. He then threw a kick at Black and the three Ki orbs flew at Black.
Black recovered as he planted his hand in the ground, doing a handstand and then multiple backflips as he planted his feet in the ground. He cupped his hands and a red and black orb formed in his hands. Without much time to charge the attack, “LIGHTS OUT!!!!” Black roared as he threw his hands forward, the beam of energy shooting forwards and exploded against the three ki attacks.
Black was then hit in the gut by a tremendous force, “Second Gate, open!” Ryker then uppercuts the Saiyan into the skies and out of the dust cloud that had formed due to the energies. Ryker followed after the Saiyan, using a combination of his Ito-Ito No Mi and his Purazuma-Purazuma No Mi, he made both Plasma and String his bitch. Wrapping Black in a plasma rope, “Now we’re doing that game that a child would play!” Ryker pulled on the rope and Black followed to Ryker, Ryker proceeded to kick Black. The attack knocked him away and Ryker pulled on it again and repeated the process over and over again.
Black let out a roar of pain each time he was kicked. The Saiyan got a brief flashback from his… brutal beatdown by Katakuri. But was interrupted as he was kicked again. In a flash of desperation, The Saiyan let out a roar, his godly aura doubling in size as a secondary aura joined him. “KAIO-KEN TIMES 10!!!” Black roared as he formed his ki blade, slicing through the plasma rope. Black took this chance to charge at Ryker and kneed him in the gut before letting out a primal roar and threw his hands forward, a blast of energy propelling Ryker to the ground.
Ryker blinked in shock and clenched his teeth, that attack had actually stung. The force of the attack sent him careening to the ground, Entity noticed this opening. “EVERYONE, PULL OUT EVERYTHING YOU HAVE ON THIS GUY!!!!” Entity transformed into his Infernal King form, Thanos went to Burst Man: White Hot Edition, and Lucci went to his awakened form.
Deity Link was still pushing more and more magic into his sword, causing it to start flashing in the colors of yellow, red, and blue.
Black nodded as he clenched his hands and began to roar, jumping into Perfected Super Saiyan Rose, “KAIO-KEN TIMES 60!!!!” Black roared as his power grew. He teleported to the ground as he threw his hands to the side, gathering two ki orbs in his hands. “Prominence… KAMEHAME…” Black chanted as he threw his arms forward, combining the two ki orbs into a massive one. Black lighting arched around the attack as it grew in size. The Saiyan brought the attack to his side as the attack had begun to shake the earth, the ground being ripped up under him.
Luna Black landed next to the Saiyan as she began to gather up her magic, it going on par when Black is in Super Saiyan God. “STAR…” The Alicorn chanted as she threw her hands forward, a navy blue orb of magic formed in her hands as it grew in power, black lightning arching around the attack as well.
Hearing his words, Sombra closed his eyes as Magic poured from them. Opening his eyes showed they were green and red, his horn had taken on a red hue, and his fur became darker. Gripping his blade black flames began to envelope them. “Hellfire….” Sombra said, Rearing his sword back.
“TITANIC…” Thanos charged up his ultimate attack, the world shaking as he did so. Putting his hands to his side, purple orbs formed and he put them together. Making a purple hellish orb that began to grow in size, like a balloon getting pumped full of air.
“BREAK…” Lucci began to charge up a Ki wave from his mouth. Lucci’s fangs began to show as he did so, the intensity matched Thanos’.
Entity put his hands together and a small fireball reveals itself. “HELLISH…” The fireball began to grow in size, it was like a mini-sun, there were some dragons made out of fire circling the fireball.
Eric Shifted to his Savage Knight as his eyes pour magic like Sombra. “Soul Sword of Purgatory..” Eric uttered as black wisps began to swirl around it, soon bursting into flames of Shadow.
At the same time, Kodo, Celine and Shiva linked together, forming a triangle of light that Luke shot through, going right past his mega-evolution and super saiyan forms, and turning into a wolf resembling the goddess Amaterasu from Okami. “Great…” Luke whispered.
The terra-drake stabbed her talons into the ground, and a terra-drake face formed in the earth, rising up to eat Ryker.
Even Luco got in on the action, transforming into a flaming Oozaru and lobbing what looked like a small sun into the air before cracking it at Ryker with enough strength to break his baseball bat.
“Oh… Shit.” Ryker said, looking at the attacks as he recovered from the attack.
“FLASH!!!!!!!” Thanos unleashed a devastating wave of purple Ki, shooting it straight towards Ryker. As it passed the ground, it incinerated the grass or what was left of it.
“...Purgatory Incineration!” Sombra yelled swinging his sword releasing a wave of burning fire
“DESTRUCTION!!!” Entity chucked a Spirit Bomb sized fireball at Ryker, the even Thanos was surprised at the amount of heat it put out.
“HHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!” Black roared as he sent the earth shaking attack forward, ripping up the ground beneath it like dust.
“BLAST!!” Luna Black shouted as the magic attack shot forward with Blacks attack, the two combining in an increasingly violent attack.
“..Black Excalibur: Burning Soul Slash!” Eric swung his massive black releasing the souls and unextinguishing fire from his blade, aimed directly at the Vile King
“CANNON!!!!” Using Nappa’s Special move, Lucci fired off a massive mouth beam at Ryker.
“HOWL!” Luke bellowed, as a vortex of sound and energy burst from his throat and rushed at Ryker.
At that moment after everyone released their attack, Deity Link swung his sword overhead in a power slow moving blade of Light, Fire, and Ice. Everyone near him would notice cracks on his face, Deity Link had been channeling the dangerous energy of the void by pushing his body to make a new attack that he never used before.
“NOM!” the terra-drake’s earth face teased as her jaws bit down towards Ryker.
The attacks combined into a Rainbowish blast, swirling around like a screwdriver. “Oh… MY… GOOODDDDD!!!!!!!!!!!” Ryker roared in fear as he was engulfed by the attack, the sheer force of the wave sent everything behind Ryker into oblivion. It was a good damn thing that the bodies of the fallen were in front of Ryker and behind Eric and the gang. When dust filled the air, everyone gasped for oxygen because that attack took most of their energy.
After
“Did you guys get him?” Elia said, sticking her head out as Brudus was next to her to ensure her safety.
“I pray to Din we did..” Deity Link said with a cough as he focused on healing up his face via Din’s Care as he fought off the vertigo that threatened to make him lose his balance.
Thanos gasped for air and went to his knees, “God damn it… That was a doozy…” Thanos said, he then looked over his shoulder and to Brudus. He gave the good boy a thumbs up.
“Oh man,” Lucci then fell on his rump in exhaustion, “That was exhausting.” Lucci exclaimed. Entity nodded with Lucci, not having any words to say.
Black fell to his knees as he gasped for breath, Luna Black kneeling next to the Saiyan and began to heal the Saiyan. “Don’t ever... ask that question… it always leads… to bad things…” Black gasped as he felt his energy being restored.
Sombra collapsed as his fur, horn, and eyes returned to normal. “There’s no way anypony could survive that.” Sombra said utterly weak from the use of that particular technique. “That was all of our strongest techniques”
Eric returned to his base form as he utterly fell backwards. “The Fucker better be dead, I’ll take unconscious at this point.”
“DON’T JINX IT!” Deity Link said with clench teeth.
“Mr. Perfect Cell could have a word about that…” Black groaned.
“Oh-ho, you boys are going to be severely disappointed,” Luco replied.
“Sup bitch!” A voice of an Irish King cried out from the dust cloud.
“You jinxed it..” Link sai with a sigh
Shiva slumped. “I hate this place,” she growled. “I hate it, and I hate him like I’ve never hated anyone before.”
“Oh no…” Elia said, hiding behind the rubble to avoid getting injured.
“COME ON!!!!” Thanos swore, “FOR FUCK’S SAKE MAN!!!!” Thanos wailed.
“Fucking… knew… it…” Black gasped out.
“No…” Sombra uttered in horror.
“That attack wasn’t half bad, I got a good tan!” With a snap of his fingers the dust cleared and it revealed Ryker burnt, there were some flames on his khakis but he snapped his fingers and he made it fade away.
“That flame was supposed to consume you” Eric said in disbelief. “How did it not kill you?”
“BECAUSE HIS POWER LEVEL IS BULLSHIT!” the terra-drake boomed.
“..Power level? No, this is just pure hax; reality breaking Dodongo shit hax..” Deity Link said as he managed to get his face back to normal.
“Magic.” Ryker said, waving his hands in the air, “But the attack did manage to injure me. Like seriously, I then it made me break a b- Oh wait it did break one, my funny bone! YOHOHOHOHO!!!!” Ryker laughed, getting a top hat out of nowhere and laughing. He then became serious.
“...Anyone feeling like giving Ryker a giant middle finger of smoke or ki?” Deity Link asked with a slight slump in his shoulders.
“Now… I believe it’s time we have a change of scenery, don’t ya think?” With a snap of his fingers they were in a red city. Red everywhere, they were in the streets and when Elia looked up… There was a giant pentagram.
“We’re in hell.” Elia blinked, “We’re in fucking hell.”
“God damn it!” Thanos cried out, hitting his fist on the ground before going to his feet, dropping out of his transformations. “Square the fuck up!”
“You’ll have to catch me firrrsst~” Ryker said in a sing-song manner, he then makes a wheel out of threads, hopping on it he then rides away.
“AFTER HIM!!!!” Entity cried out, he then got an Elytra on and some fireworks. He then gets to fly after the bastard, Lucci turned into Full Leopard and ran after Ryker. Thanos goes to Steam Man and runs after Ryker.
Black ignited his aura, Luna Black spread her wings and the two flew off, giving chase to the Irish man.
Link played the song of soaring and quickly lifted off to go after the trolling Ryker.
Eric shifts into his Reaper form before Chasing after Ryker, Sombra was covered in grey magic before running off at near blinding speed after Ryker and the others.
Shiva, Luke, Kodo and Celine dropped to all fours and raced after Ryker like hunting dogs, bellowing for the hunt.
The terra-drake lifted her arms, and a car of stones formed out of the ground. Hopping in, she peeled out in pursuit.
“Alright, Blazy!” Luco said, snapping his fingers… only to open a portal that nearly scorched him with the aftereffects of Katakuri and Blazy’s battle. He snapped it shut with a grimace. “Right…” he muttered, sighing as he moseyed after the others.
As Ryker rolled away the first one to reach him was none other than the chad himself, Thanos.
“How did I get here? Plot?” Thanos said, turning around as he ran on the wheel.
“Probably a bit of Plot Armor in there too,” Ryker said with a shrug, Thanos then pulls out a blade that he got on the fifth floor. The cutlass.
“Anyways, I got you now.” Thanos said, grinning wildly, Ryker then pulls out Shank’s sword, Gryphon.
“On the contrary, I got you,” Ryker said with a grin, and thus the sword duel on a rolling object commenced. Totally not stealing from a certain Pirate franchise.
[url= ][u] [/u][/url]Thanos and Ryker began their sword duel, and like true idiots they did it like Pirates.Thanos turned around and saw Sombra there sprinting next to the wheel. “Oh hi Mark,” Thanos said, ducking under an attack from Ryker and attacking Ryker back. Ryker simply parried the blow and they continued to clash swords.
Black and Luna Black both caught up to the group, The Saiyan seeing the two dueling on the spinning wheel. “Hey Thanos, don’t mess around with him!” Black shouted.
“I’d rather not see any surprising transformations he could do if we mess around too long!” Link shouted.
“What?!” Thanos cried out, he then looked behind Ryker and saw a building. “Ryker, turn, TURN TURN TU-” They both crashed into the building while still on the wheel. Ryker took this as an opportunity to slash Thanos’s shoulder, Thanos growled and slashed back. Cutting a piece of his khakis off.
“Do you know how expensive these are?!” Ryker cried out, Thanos then sliced the khakis again. “You did it again! How dare you!” Ryker growled, and cut Thanos’ massive forehead.
“OH THAT’S IT!!!!” Thanos began violently swinging at Ryker and they were now back onto the streets, a certain party of imps passing by.
“Okay Moxxie, if you were a horny owl, where would you-” Blitzo was cut off as a giant wheel holding two warriors went past them and ran over Moxxie, taking him with the wheel.
“Moxxie!” Millie exclaimed, before getting a shotgun out. “These fuckers gon’ pay!”
“We got him! Don’t risk yourselves!” Shiva yelled, as she and Luke shot by, throwing each other with a pack link similar to a belay rope.
“After that wheel!” Blitzo ran into a car, Millie was about to go after Blizo.
Before Millie could so much as take a step Moxxie was dropped at her feet with Eric standing in front of them.
“Take him and get out of here” Eric said to the imps
“Okay, who the fuck are you, and why are you wearing your human form in Hell?” Blizto said, pointing a finger at the Shadow Man.
Eric turned to the larger imp before sending a glare with his sockets. “Because we are humans.”
Black flew past them, but in that split second, “We’re not demons! NOW DO WHAT HE SAYS AND GET A FUCKING MOVE ON YOU STUPID DEVIL BITCHES!!!” Black roared as he flew at tremendous speed, leaving everyone in the dust.
“FUCKING HURRY UP YOU JACKASS!!!!” Lucci said, running after Black, glaring at both Eric and the imps.
“Okay, I can take an insult but I won’t take one from a human, get in the car Moxxie!” Blitzo said as Millie grabbed Moxxie and headed straight for the car.
Without hesitation Eric raised his Scythe to Blitzo’s throat. “Leave!”
“Alright.” Blitzo squeaked and backed up towards the car, Moxxie and Millie following his lead.
Seconds later, Shiva and the other wolves shot by, Kodo briefly stopping as he spotted Loona.
“Whoa-ho, hello,” he said with a grin at the hellhound, before Celine got him by the ear.
“Not the time, Kodo!” she barked, racing away as Kodo howled in protest.
Back on the Wheel, Thanos was pushing Ryker off, slowly but surely. Ryker was so close to being pushed off Thanos could almost taste it.
“I’m pushing you off!” Thanos said with a cackle, Ryker had a worried expression before it was filled with determination.
“No you ain’t!” Ryker began to push Thanos back, with a swear, Thanos slashed Ryker’s cheek. Blood seeped from the blow and with a snarl Ryker stabbed Thanos in his arm, Thanos inhaled deeply.
“AAAAAA MOTHERFUCKER!!!!” Thanos then kicked Ryker in his balls, letting out a squeak of pain, Ryker was back on the edge. “I will beat yo ass! Wait… Is that the Happy Hotel? Oh you cheeky bastard, we’re in the Hazbin Hotel Universe!” Thanos cried out.
“It took you just now to realize?” Ryker said, tilting his head, suddenly the wheel began to pick up speed. Both of the fighters looked down and they saw Lucci running the wheel like a hamster.
“Sorry Thanos, but we have no time for your antics, we need to speed things up.” Lucci then charged up, his Ki aura flowing around him as he ran the wheel.
“Oh I see what you did there, hilarious!” Ryker laughed, Thanos laughed afterwards, they were both idiots.
“Hey… Isn’t that Black I see?” Thanos looked behind him, Ryker peeked as well and saw the Saiyan coming in hot. “Hi Black!” Thanos waved at Black, the wheel began to pick up speed at a rapid pace. They both looked down and they were going down a slope.
“Lucci! Slow down!” Ryker yelped in fear, Thanos looked at Ryker and saw pure fear in his eyes.
“I can’t stop!” Lucci cried out, they all yelled in fear as they picked up speed. Careening down towards a building.
“AAAAAA!!!!” With a girly scream they all crashed into the building and they all halted. The wheel collapsed in a bundle of strings and the trio were buried in rubble and string. Thanos jumped out, Lucci just crawled out, now in his human form.
“Never again,” Lucci panted, “Never again.”
Thanos just nodded, “Agreed.” Ryker then bursts from the rubble and does a split kick, kicking both of the fighters into buildings.
“Okay, who’s next?” Ryker laughed, looking around joyously.
Ryker was then punched by a devastating attack, hitting him straight across the cheek by Black, sending him through multiple buildings. And like a dog, he came back and kicked Black in his face, sending him through more buildings. Ryker then faced everyone, they were now all in front of him, Ryker jumped back and onto an elevated platform.
“I believe it’s time I take off this ring of mine,” Ryker said, wagging his finger that held a ring.
“What’s a ring gonna do for you?” Thanos said, crossing his arms and looking up at Ryker.
“It could be an inhibitor ring, hiding his… true power…” Luna Black said, realizing the horror Ryker was about to release.
“CALLED IT!” Deity Link said with a face-palm.
“Correct!” Ryker cackled, he then took it off and immediately everyone fell to their knees. Unable to withstand the pressure of his true power, Lucci clutched his mouth before barfing. “And now… You all know how absolutely, positively… FUCKED you guys are!”
Black shakely got up, but with great difficulty, his legs and arms shaking like they were about to be turned to dust. “We’ll just… have to… see about… that.” Black grunted,
“Oh I’m not done yet…” Ryker then gets his Gauntlets on, it has a hellish glow to it. He then gets his boots on, it had a thunderous glow to it. As for his armor… It was impressive, replicating that of a Demonic Knight.
“...WWwwhhhhyyyy?” Deity Link asked as he shook his hands toward Ryker. “You’re invisible to most damage and you do this?!” he asked. The poor hylian went from pissed off to just being tired of it all.
Clutching his head, seemingly getting a migraine due to the pressure of his power. Eric slowly and shakely got to his feet. “B-Be that as it may...” Eric said, rising to his feet. “We will not cease trying to stop you.”
“Well then,” No one could see it but Eric was flung at faster than light speeds, crashing through multiple buildings before stopping at a mountain. He was flung into the wilderness of hell. “Come at me,”
Black huffed as he clenched his fists, “KAIO-KEN TIMES 65!!!” Black roared as his muscles bulked up a bit. Black winced as he wasn’t experienced with Kaio-ken past times 60.
Thanos looked at Black, lightning then struck Thanos and he was enchanted with a thunderous aura. Kicking it back up to Burst Man: White Hot Edition he covered his body in Tekkai Go and Armament Haki, “KAIOKEN TIMES FIFTY!!!!” Thanos roared, covering his fists in Ryou Haki to multiply his damage output. Thanos was alright before he looked at his rival, tsking, he decided to double it up. “KAIOKEN TIMES SIXTY!!!!” Thanos roared, he then became stronger than ever though he was straining.
Black grunted as he covered his right arm in Armament Haki, red lighting arched around him as it vaporized the ground beneath him. “AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH” Black roared as he charged forward, pulling his fist back.
“USE DDRAIG!!!!” Thanos ordered Black as he shot towards Ryker, a devastating hellish shockwave following Thanos as he flew at Ryker.
“REN KUGI TEN DRAGON FIST!!” Black roared as his arm bulked up, blood slowly flowing out of his arm. He threw his fist forward as he exploded into a Red dragon, it being bigger than usual.
“HELLISH FIST OF THE BLACK TURTLE!!!!!” Thanos’ right arm was covered in black flames. There was a Transparent Turtle around Thanos. Thanos shot his fist forward and a Black Tortoise shot towards Ryker.
“I don’t name my attacks, but…” Shiva and Luke glanced at each other, before she covered him in diamonds and flung him like a ball and chain. “Diamond Dog Chain Whip… attack, I guess…”
The Red Dragon and the Black Tortoise shot towards Ryker both then impact Ryker, Ryker was sent flying through some buildings. Thanos then hears a grunt of pain and he spots Black with his right arm, injured and nearly destroyed. Black grimaced at this before spotting Thanos’ gaze. With a look of determination they both nod and fly off towards the location they flung Ryker. Meanwhile Lucci slowly backed away from the rubble, shivering in fear.
“He’s gonna kill us all…” Lucci said softly, Brudus piped up.
“Do not fret, with the power of teamwork we can-” Brudus was cut off by Lucci.
“Don’t you understand?! Ryker isn’t going a fraction of his power! This may as well be a warm up to him!” Lucci cried out.
“...Don’t tell me this isn’t even his final form..” Deity Link said with a groan.
“Then we’ll hit him where it hurts,” Shiva snarled, rushing past them.
“You’re right; we must try,” Elia said looking towards the sounds of struggle. “Thanos and Black are putting their lives on the lines for us, we shouldn’t just let their struggle be for nothing.”
“...” Lucci was silent, having nothing to say about that.
“We need to go after Eric, he was flung pretty damn far,” Entity spun his scythe and rested it on his shoulder. “Lucci, come here, and whoever wants to come, join us.”
Entity then blasts off, Lucci follows him as they fly towards the location of where Eric was flung.
Meanwhile...
“DA DA DA DA DA DA!!!” Thanos and Black cried out as they launched their assault on Ryker, Ryker blocked and countered when he saw an opening. Thanos then swept Ryker’s feet before sending a burst of heat at his abdomen, sending him higher. Black shot towards the skies and kicked Ryker in his cheek before flying behind Ryker. Black’s foot had five Ki orbs around them, he then shoots the Ki orbs at Ryker’s back. Crying out in pain Ryker turned to face Black, appearing before the Saiyan and grabbing him by the leg. Flying down towards the ground Ryker slammed Black onto the ground.
“Hell Kick!” Ryker was then kicked in his face by a steaming hot kick from Thanos, sanding him tumbling. The Irish King rolled to his feet and look at Thanos, Thanos held his comrade stand up and then look at Ryker.
“Have any ideas on how to beat him?” Thanos said turning to Black, Black just glanced at the Titan.
“Other than fusion, no. But if we keep up the tempo, we can surely catch him off guard.” Black planned, Thanos nodded and looked at Ryker.
“Right, let’s go!” The duo shot towards Ryker, both had a Big Bang Attack charging up. They shot their left hands forward, “BIG BANG ATTACK!!!” The combination of the two attacks formed together and made a big Big Bang Attack.
“Hmph, God’s Swipe!” Making a Plasma Blade, Ryker raised it high before slamming it down. He cuts the Big Bang Attack in half, Thanos growls.
“Damn it,” Black shot forward and produced a roundhouse kick to Ryker’s neck, stunning him enough for Thanos to come around and launch a Ryou Haki punch to the King’s rib. Wheezing Ryker jumped back only to be kicked by Black who used Instant Transmission to teleport behind him. Black kicked Ryker towards Thanos, Thanos then kicked him into the air and he shot towards the skies. Both rivals flew high above Ryker and pointed their feet at Ryker, crashing down like an asteroid they hit Ryker in his gut, sending him into the ground.
“Hot Wind-” Thanos was cut off as Ryker grabbed Thanos by his neck.
“You two have done it now…” Ryker snarled, before a pack link shot into his head… and he saw he was holding Nora. He growled. “Damnit, Shiva; stay out of my head!” He then threw Thanos at the Diamond Dog. Black tried to move forward to catch him but... “PLASMA KICK!!!!” Black felt the full brunt of the attack, before Shiva transferred the pain right out of him and into Ryker. Nevertheless, the momentum still caught her off guard, and all three fighters were sent careening downwards and crashed into rubble.
“Tch, I had a plan but I forgot it,” Thanos swore, Black turned to Thanos, wearing a face of disbelief.
“Well you better remember it now!” Black said, looking up at the skies and seeing Ryker approaching. Ryker then vanished from their sights, Black’s stance tightened. “Where’d he go?”
“You’re too slow,” A chilling voice said, behind them.
“Oh, fuck,” Shiva swore, diving into Hell’s ground. She tried to drag Thanos and Black after her, only for her to get yanked through the ground as Ryker punted them across Hell. Crashing into building after building before finally stopping and hitting a thick enough building. The duo slowly slump down and hit their asses. Shiva popped her head out of the ground, coughing up rocks. They then see Ryker walking towards them calmly.
“Thanos, did you remember that plan of yours?” Black grunt as he forced himself to his feet. Thanos followed Black’s movement, going to his feet as well.
“I have this one attack that can stun him long enough for me to pull off an Omega Heat Crash,” Thanos told the Saiyan, as the terra-drake smashed her car into Ryker… only for him to tank the blow and throw her aside.
“And?” Black said, glancing at Thanos side-ways.
“It takes a while to charge,” Thanos explained flatly, Black swore, watching as Luco cracked another grenade at the back of Ryker’s head. Ryker turned to glare at the monkey man, and Luco wisely teleported away with a burst of fireworks.
“Great, just great I have to buy enough time,” Black said looking into Ryker’s piercing emerald eyes. His eyes took a yellow hue and his eyes changed to Gold yellow.
“How much time do you need?” Eric asked emerging from the surrounding shadows
“About thirty minutes,” Thanos said, cheekily.
“Thirty minutes? What kind of an attack takes thirty minutes?!” Black complained.
“An effective attack,” Thanos shot at Black, frowning at the Saiyan.
“We’ll do our best to keep him occupied,” Eric said, calling forth his Sacred Gear.
“Good, now don’t let him get a lick on me, if he does I’ll have to start all over again.” Thanos then closes his eyes and puts his palms together, electricity begins to flow throughout his body.
“We’re going to get our asses handed to us, aren’t we Black?” Eric asked as his gauntlet glowed.
“Probably,” Luke grumbled.
“Yup…” Black said, shaking his head, taking on the stance of Future Gohan.
“I figured,” Eric said, widening his stance like Monkey D. Luffy. “Let’s make it count then”
“Sup,” Ryker greeted, looking at the trio. “So Eric, welcome back to the party. Did you like the farm that I sent you to? Nice people.” Ryker greeted casually as he took on a stance.
But to Eric's horror, Black dropped out of Perfected Super Saiyan Rose and back to Super Saiyan God. The saiyans eyes widened as he let out heavy breaths. "No… no not now…" Black panicked.
“Stamina?” Eric asked in worry giving the Saiyan a side glance
"I haven't… fully mastered that form, it's basically breaking my body apart." Black explained.
“Wait, hang on,” Celine insisted, transferring a pack link to him. “I can sustain your stamina with my own.”
“Stamina break~!” Ryker said in a sing-song voice, gut punching Black and shredding Celine’s link to him. He then turned to Eric and fired off a Plasma bolt from his hand, Ryker then elbows Black’s nose, sending the poor man crashing into rubble.
The pile of ruble blew away as Black charged forward, to Eric's surprise, the Saiyan landed multiple hits on him. To the shadow man's eyes, it looked like Black stayed in his God form. Only Rumer could see what was happening as a shade of pink appeared for a split second.
Eric plunged his hand into the shadows, keeping his eyes trained on the King. Once Ryker slowed to a stop Eric grabbed hold of the King’s leg with his Sacred Gear, for a brief moment the green gem changed from green to blue.
Ryker looked at the two, his eyes switching between them, he then turned into plasma, appearing behind Eric. He kicked the Shadow Man towards Black and he began to pummel them both mercilessly. But in Thanos’ head….
“Bada da ta~ Imma chagrin’ my attack…” Thanos sang as the screams of agony the two were unleashing onto this world. MCU Thanos and Abridged Thanos sang as well.
Eric put a barrier around him and Black before grabbing the Saiyan and teleporting away. At the same time, Kodo and Celine sling-shot Luke at Ryker. But before Ryker could prepare to catch him, Luke spun and hurled Shiva into him. Shiva seized Ryker’s head, her pack links digging into his eyes.
“YOU DO THIS FOR YOUR DAUGHTER?!” she howled. “BUT HOW MANY DAUGHTERS HAVE YOU TAKEN?!”
He saw the destroyed city of Eliatrope again. But this time, every dead body was replaced with his daughter. He saw Nora with holes punched in her chest, Nora with threads punched through her body, Nora with fatal gashes… he saw his daughter dead in so many ways.
“OH YOU MOTHERFUCKER!!!!!!!” Ryker roared in outrage, and tore Shiva away, hurling her at her family and sending them tumbling like bowling pins.
"I can't keep up this strategy of mine…" Black huffed. His God Form slowly healing his shattered right arm.
“If it’s any consolation, I managed to grab him with Draig,” Eric said, lifting the gauntlet as it shouted “Divide!”
“Yah yeet!” Eric was then Puny God’d when Ryker slammed him over and over again, “Bang! Slam! Crash!” Ryker said with glee before throwing Eric into Black, sending both of them into whatever building remained. His gaze fell upon Thanos, “What are you doing here boy? Aren’tcha supposed to be helpin’ yer friends?” Ryker approached the Titan, before a slurry of vines seized him again.
“Guys? Uh… That Irish guy is getting really close…” Abridged Thanos said, as the God approached Thanos.
“You don’t say? Don’t ruin the vibe!” Thanos cried out, “Bada da ta~ I’mma chagrin’ my attack!” Thanos sang.
Ryker yanked the vines and the terra-drake they were attached to, clotheslining her and sending her to the ground.
“Thank God I’m still high as a kite,” the terra-drake mumbled, taking a drag on another joint.
Before Ryker could stomp her into her beloved ground, he was then hit by a pressure blast that sent him into a building. Thanos looked to his side to see Black fully standing up, his hand stretched outward with his eyes closed.
“Divide!” Eric formed a pair of wings and took to the skies, “One by Land and One by the Air” Eric said as he aimed his hand at the King. “Shadow Hailstorm” Numerous arrows of shadow fired at the king
“Oh? Are you approaching me?” Ryker said, looking at the arrows, “Come as close as you like.” The arrows were then knocked away by some unknown force, “Didn’t I tell you that I had a stand? It is called… Green and Greener! It’s power is to control nature around it! It can also Ora Ora you out of existence! Just you look, Ker, Ker, Ker, Ker, Ker, KER!!!!” Ryker chanted as Eric looked like he was having a seizure mid-air though he was currently getting pummeled by his stand.
“Channel nature?” the terra-drake groaned. “That’s my thing!” Ryker shut her up with a stomp.
Black opened his eyes, a silver glow appeared around him as a pillar of light struck him, getting the Irish man's attention.
“Ultra Instinct… Impressive,” Ryker mused, “Though that means nothing, you’re still going to die, I think it’s time I change scenery again.” With a snap of his fingers everyone, including the others, were teleported to Punk Hazard. “He’s hot and he’s cold, he’s yes and he’s no.” Ryker sang. They were all on the Ice Side of the hot and cold island, mountains could be seen in the distance and a fiery side could be seen beyond the lake.
“Now Eric, do be a good boy and sit there while the adults talk.” Ryker said before flying at Black, using Future Sight Observation Haki to keep track of his movements.
Black didn't move as Ryker came charging at him, he instead took a deep breath as his aura began to grow in size. As the Irish man was about to attack, Black moved to the side slightly. Ryker stopped himself and went to sweep Black’s legs, using Plasma to boost his speed as he did so. The Saiyan barely moved out of the way as he went for his own attack, on the outside it looked like a glare. But to the Saiyan, it was hundreds of punches and kicks that were sent Rykers' way.
Ryker simply countered Black’s “glare” with his own. The two clashed as they stood idly, the ice beneath them began to shatter due to the force of their attack. Using his Stand he went for a kick to the back of Black’s leg.
The attack landed, but the Saiyan then used his opportunity to kick the Irish man in the jaw, stunning him. It landed as then Black twirled around and threw his fists forward. A pressure blast was sent into Ryker’s gut.
Ryker wheezed from the force but then grinned as he looked at Black, “Seven Thousand Tile Roundhouse Kick!” Using Plasma to enhance his speed, plus the boots he slammed a Ryou Haki kick into Black’s rib.
Though the Saiyan made no sound, the pained expression was all Ryker needed. This sent the Saiyan flying back down towards Eric and Thanos, Black planting his feet in the ground as he came to a halt. Kodo jumped between them, transferring any pain from Black into a pack link ball of agony, which he then promptly threw at Ryker. Black looked towards Thanos with a 'Are you almost done?' look.
Thanos hummed a song, he then snapped out of it as he looked at Black. “Oh uh… I’m almost there, three more minutes.” Thanos said, looking at Ryker who took out Yoru.
The Saiyan nodded as he jumped into the air and let out a primal roar, shaking the world around him as a galaxy shaped aura surrounded him.
Ryker raised the blade high, aiming it at Thanos instead of Black. “You look like you’re doing something important!” Ryker slammed the blade down and a mountain sized air slash shot towards Thanos.
“Black, Eric, Black, Eric, BLACK, ERIC!!!!!” Thanos yelped as the attack came closer.
“Uh, how about Vine?” the terra-drake asked, lifting her claw and causing the earth itself to shift, forming a shield around Thanos. “That’s my name. Vine, or Wildvine. Just… letting anyone who cares know.” She took another drag on her joint. “Yeah, I don’t think anyone cares.”
“I care,” Thanos said with a smile, “Learning someone’s name is always fun!”
“Aww,” Vine cooed. “You’re sweet.”
The slash of air then seemingly disappeared, along with Black as well, this shocked everyone, including the Irish Man. Ryker heard an aura behind as he turned around. He saw the Saiyan covered in a white and black shine of light that seemed blinding. He held a condensed piece of air in his palm. And he simply flicked his hand and it was dispersed.
“Bullshit.” Ryker said flatly.
“Oh-ho, that’s rich, coming from you,” Luco pointed out.
“Good point!” Ryker turned to Luco.
“Done!” Thanos then appeared behind Ryker and as the Irish King turned around he was met with a devastating double palm strike. “ZEUS’ THUNDEROUS FISTS!!!!” Ryker coughed up a helluva lot of blood, it also made Ryker freeze. “Now for the grand finale!” Flying to the other side of the Island he aimed at Ryker.
“We can talk about this,” He said through his teeth, he couldn’t open his mouth.
Shiva laughed. “You murdered more people than I can count,” she growled, before raising a claw and adding her power to the Titan. “We most certainly cannot talk about this.”
Eric raised his hand and added some of his power to the Titan covering his arm in spiked shadow armor
Thanos covered his fist in Ki, Armament Haki, Ryou Haki, Tekkai Go, Lightning, Heat, Steam, Magma Dragon Slayer Magic, Earth Dragon Slayer Magic, Alicorn Magic, Spiked Shadow Armor, and Dark Magic. Thanos approached Ryker at a rapid pace. “OOOOMEEEEEGAAAAAA!!!!!”
“Help! Nein, nein, nein!” Ryker said, trying to move his body.
“HEEEAAAAATTTTT!!!!!” Thanos clenched his fists.
“OH SON OF A-” Ryker couldn’t finish that as he was punched in his abdomen.
“CRASH!!!!!” A massive, hellish explosion followed after melting all ice in the vicinity as well as burning the clothes off of anyone nearby… Like Eric and Black. The aftermath of the attack revealed Ryker’s armor shattered and his gauntlets as well. Thanos kicked Ryker. “Jackass…”
Black appeared next to Thanos with a new pair of clothes, the white and black shine disappearing to reveal Black with white hair. He didn’t say anything with his stoic expression.
Ryker then shoots back up, grabbing the sides of Thanos and Black’s heads, before slamming them together. “Ryker…. Never… Dies…” Ryker said, spitting out a tooth, but it was replaced by another tooth. “Bitch.”
Celine’s ears flicked. “But… they aren’t female dogs,” she noted. Kodo snapped her snout shut.
“Talk about it later,” he insisted. “Anybody got a new plan?”
“Here’s one: RUUUUUNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!” Thanos then runs away as fast as he can, “AAAAAAA!!!!!” Thanos screamed as he ran towards the group.
“Is that John- I mean, Thanos?” Brudus asked, looking at Thanos running at them, screaming in fear.
Black cupped his hands together and held them in front of him, sending multiple pressure blasts. Holding him off to have the others enough time to run, he gave Eric, Shiva and her family a glare that told them to fucking run. Nodding, Shiva snagged Eric and the others with her links, and charged away.
“And I oop!” Ryker grabbed Black and threw him into the air, “Get fucked!” Ryker then shot towards the others. Going straight for Vine, he readied his blade, Yoru. “One Sword Style: Strongest Slash!” Sending a hellish black and green wave of energy towards the group with a singular slash Entity piped up.
“I can-” Entity was then kicked away by Ryker’s clone that he had made as Entity was piping up. Ryker’s clones surrounded the group as the slash came in.
“Fuck.” Lucci swore under his breath. Black appeared next to the group with a glare. He lifted his hand towards the slash, a condensed deep blue ki wave shot forward and clashed with the slash of energy. Shortly after, it broke through with an explosion, bits of the ki broke off and impacted the ground. Blue flames surrounded the area as they raged on, one of them fell onto Black and it burnt his shirt away.
[url= ][u] [/u][/url]From the dust cloud Ryker had a new suit on. He then began to strut towards them, “Greetings piggies, which one of you want to be roasted pork?” Ryker snapped his fingers and hellish flames formed on his hands. “Oh and welcome to Punk Hazard, it’s hot and cold, yes and it’s no.” Ryker then began to hum the rest of the song before snapping back to reality, oe there goes gravity… literally, as Celine summoned her fruit, and sent Ryker into the air.
“I got this!” Thanos flew at Ryker and gave him a solid punch in the face… Though it didn’t work.Thanos began to punch him and kick him over and over again, as Shiva and Kodo added their own strength to him.
“Boom chicka uh! Boom chicka uh! Purple Dick-” The two Thanos’ began to chant. Kodo laughed and chanted along with them.
“What are you doing?!” Thanos demanded as he began to hit Ryker.
“We’re hyping you up,” MCU Thanos explained.
“It gets your adrenaline going and should help your strength.” Kodo added.
“Well it’s not helping!” Thanos cried out before Ryker then grabbed one of Thanos’ fists and sent a Ki blast to his gut.
“OH SHIT MOTHA FUCKAAAAA!!!!” The Thanos’ say before Thanos was launched towards an icy mountain. Luckily, Shiva maintained her hold on him, though the momentum sent her skidding several feet across the ground, transferring his pain into another ball of agony. Firing the attack at Ryker, she coated Thanos in diamonds before wrenching him back at the Irish King.
Black then charged in, appearing in front of Ryker and sending a flurry of attacks, and for some reason just an unnecessary amount of explosions happening around them. Ryker simply dodged the attacks, hands behind his back as he did so. Ryker then kicks Black in his forehead stunning the Saiyan before kicking him back down to the ice. Ki orbs followed his feet as he chucked the Ki orbs at Black. As the Saiyan recovered, he landed on his feet as he threw his hands forward, catching the ki orbs and dispersing them.
As Thanos’ diamond form sailed past Ryker, Shiva tugged her link like a kunai, pulling Thanos back towards Ryker’s head like a yo-yo.
“Oh son of a literal bitch,” Ryker swore, ducking under the attack and grabbing the ball, “Yeet!” Ryker then pulled on the Thanos-ball.
“And damn proud of it,” Kodo declared, catching his mother before Ryker could yank her into the air.
“Do you know who I am?” Ryker asked, distancing himself from the group.
“A manipulative fool chasing after somepony who left you” Eric said
“A murderer and a maniac,” Kodo answered.
“Aren’t we all murderers technically?” Thanos said, perking up, “Oh, a genuine demon?” Ryker perked up.
“A very misguided man,” Celine offered.
“A… bad guy?” Luke added.
“A former human who’s lost sight of what made him human?” Vine asked.
“A good man lost in his own path of dread…” Black said simply, his voice being warped.
“An overpowered boi?” Brudus said, tilting his head.
“Lucifer?” Entity offered, leaning on his scythe.
“A fucking donut,” Gordon Ramsey said, giving Ryker the middle finger, standing next to Shiva.
“A tyrant who abused his subjects,” Shiva growled darkly.
“A man who wants his daughter back?” Lucci said weakly.
[url= ][u] [/u][/url]“I… Am Ryker O’Brian, God of Equus, Destroyer of Worlds, God of Destruction, the Displaced Slayer, the Grimm Reaper of Death, and wrecker of your shit.” Ryker said, glaring down at everyone.
Mud splashed against his face, courtesy of Vine. “Wreck that shit,” she said with a grin. Ryker actually smiled at that one.
“Sorry to burst your bubble, but there is only one Reaper” Eric said, his sword staff turning to a scythe.
“What is a God to a Titan?” Thanos said, putting a hand on his hips.
Black said nothing as he rolled his shoulder, a satisfying pop was heard as he got into a stance similar to Future Gohan.
“What are a couple of lost children in a blizzard?” Ryker replied.
“Dead?” Thanos said before he was slapped on the head by Elia. “What? It’s true!”
And just like that, with barely enough time for Shiva to dissipate her link, Thanos was sent flying, going faster than his dad had left him, just like when Eric was thrown away. With a scream that resembled that of Goofy’s, the scream fades away.
“Ding ding! Thanos was correct, now guess what I have?” Ryker then brings out a jar of dirt, “I got a jar of dirt, I got a jar of dirt, and guess what’s inside it?” Ryker said in a sing-song tone, circling the Displaced before raising the jar of dirt over his head.
“Let’s find out,” Vine replied, before flexing her talons. The jar of dirt exploded, and cascaded down onto Ryker’s face.
Ryker then grabbed something from the dirt… It was Luna, “Guess what I have here?” Ryker then wrapped his claw around Luna and began to squeeze her. His now Golden eyes turning into Orange, “Eric’s Luna!” Ryker exclaimed.
Eric stood frozen in place as his anger made way for fury and rage
Black and Kodo charged forward in an attempt to save her, but Shiva caught them both with links.
“Stop, you two!” Shiva yelled.
But Black easily tore her link to him away and continued to charge at the Irish man. As Black closed in on Ryker, his face full of determination as he prepared to attack, but it was to no avail.
“...Get fucked,” Ryker simply blinked and Black was sent flying.
Ryker flexed his Ki and kicked it up into one of his more dangerous transformations. He was outlined with a purple aura and nothing but radiation emanated from it, “Guess what the sun is? Plasma, guess what power I have? Plasma, which is very hot! I wonder… If you had a chance to save her, Eric… Would you choose between your friends… or you poor little doll? Ryker said, scratching the head on the Princess.
Eric stepped forward with his mind racked with the thought of losing his friends or his Princess, Eric looked towards his friends before looking down at the ground. “I can't... feel that pain again” Eric whispered as he turned back to Ryker.
“Eric, don’t you dare!” Kodo growled. “We can rescue her together! You can’t trust him!”
“Even so..” Eric said, pulling both Incursio and Murasame from his body. “I won’t lose somepony I love again” The Shadow Man turned to the others with both weapons raised. “And I will protect them with everything I have.”
“Everything you have?” Celine asked, before glancing at Sombra. “If you try to protect her, you’re turning your back on him. Don’t act like you don’t care; I can sense the history between you two.”
“No..” Sombra said, tightening his grip on his swords. “He would definitely kill me to save her, Especially after what I did...”
“You’re right Sombra'' Eric said, rushing forward and swinging Murasame at the unicorn… only for Kodo to block him with his own sword. “I would kill you to save Luna''
“If you would turn your back on the many to save the few,” Kodo growled. “Then you are no better than Sombra or I were when we were pawns of Umbra! You are a disgrace to the rank of Captain!”
“I don’t care!” Eric shouted covering incursio in Armament Haki and slamming the hilt into the Pup’s stomach. “I will not lose the one I love again”
However, the pup was expecting it, and burst into smoke, spinning around Eric and suplexing him to the ground. He spun to his paws, growing in size as his pack link tendrils stabbed into Eric and drained his shadows’ magic. “What about the ones WE love?” Kodo snarled. “I will not lose them again either!”
“Then I will only ask this once of you,” Eric said, stabbing Murasame into the ground. “Stand down” The Shadow Man switched Incursio to his free hand before grabbing the Pack Link, his gauntlet glowing blue. “DIVIDE!
Just before his pack link was severed, Kodo let one more memory push through to Eric’s mind. His family arranged perfectly to resemble Eric. Kodo was Eric. Shiva was Luna, Celine was Rainbow Dash, and Luke was Sombra.
However the memory was shattered as Eric used his magic to remove it.
“I know you want me to be reasonable, Kodo,” Eric said, pulling the one cut killer from the ground. “But I won’t be swayed. The Shadow needs to protect his Princess of the Night” Eric said, bringing both blades down on the pup.
Kodo matched his strike with his own blades, and did not falter. “And the wolf will not abandon his pack for the one again,” Kodo replied, before letting loose with a bark of superheated smoke, launching Eric into the air.
“Forgive me, pup,” Eric Kicked the air combining both Moonwalk and Shave.
Kodo’s attention was drawn to the sound of metal hitting the ground behind him, turning around and he was met with both of Eric’s weapons. Without warning the Diamond Dog felt something being clamped on his wrist, on his wrist was a bracer made from Sea-prism stone
Growling, but undeterred, Kodo lashed out with his pack link, which the sea-prism couldn’t contain. Catching Eric with a collar, he slammed the shadow man into the ground, drawing away his magic and using it to blast him further into the ground. “You betray our pack?” Kodo seethed. “There is no forgiveness for that.”
“Within this virgin of dark cold ore who shall swallow even your screams with her embrace. Suffer in anguish as your entire body is stabbed and skewered:'' Eric chanted as shadow tendrils wrapped around the dog pulling him off of the Shadow Man.
Yet as the shadow tendrils lifted Kodo into the air, they burned with electricity. “Suffer as I suffer,” Kodo chanted back. “Feel as I feel.” Overwhelming pain flooded the shadow man’s senses, before Kodo slashed away the shadow tendrils and jumped back to gain some distance.
“Eric please, stop this” Sombra pleaded
Eric glared at the Unicorn before vanishing into the shadows
“Quick, Back to back,” Sombra ordered the Diamond Dog
Sombra and Kodo put their backs against one another, their swords gripped tightly in their hands. Kodo slammed the hilt of his sword against the cuff, but even with the power of the pack link, the sea prism held firm.
“Help me get this off!” Kodo said, showing the unicorn the Sea Prism Stone bracer
“I can't,” Sombra said, keeping his eyes trained on the shadows. “That’s one of Eric’s special…”
Before he could continue, Celine jumped in. With a snarl, she smashed Kodo’s wrist, breaking it. Kodo yowled as his wrist snapped under her blow. But with a quick yank, Celine pulled the cuff off her brother’s mangled claw, before healing the limb with a pack link. She spun, putting her own back to the two, and linking them together with another pack link, Kodo’s injury spinning in another energy ball that she was prepared to hurl into Eric’s face when he showed himself.
“Damn, Celine,” Kodo seethed, flexing his claw. “You couldn’t find another way?”
“And let this traitor get at you more easily?” Celine growled, her teeth bared at the shadows. “After the loyalty our mother showed him; constantly turning down Ryker to fight for him and the others?” She grit her teeth as her fur pulsed. “Celestial BLAZE!”
Her fur exploded with the light of a sun, chasing away the shadows and depriving Eric of his power source.
“Look, please don’t blame him,” Sombra insisted. “He’s lost a lot of people he cares about. Too many to count, he’s just a desperate man trying to protect what little he has left.”
Before Celine or Kodo could utter a word to argue, a silver sword burst from Sombra’s chest, behind the unicorn stood Eric with anger in his eyes.
“I’m sorry Sombra” Eric apologized pulling Incursio from the unicorn before looking towards the Diamond Dogs. “Please...Don’t make me kill you too”
Unfortunately Eric saw the anger and determination in their eyes. “You betrayed us,” Kodo growled. “To betray the pack is death!”
“So be it.” Eric rushed the two.
[url=https://youtu.be/lO3jCpoTyIg[/embed]
With her fur still shining with light like a miniature sun, Celine deflected Eric’s attack, while Kodo leaped over her and carved his sword down Eric’s chest. At the same time, Luke seized Eric by the back, digging into the scars his parents had left on him.
“Not my children, you traitorous bastard,” Luke snarled, before dragging his claws down Eric’s back, reopening the wounds while Kodo hit Eric with the remains of the sea prism bracelet.
“Face your fears,” Kodo chanted, as a pack link stabbed into Eric’s head. As he tried to fight, the shadow man saw his deepest, darkest fear: His eyes grew wide as did his anger and desperation grow.
As the vision made him furious, Kodo, Celine and Luke continued their assault like wolves with a deer, tying him in tendrils that dug into his skin like the string-string fruit or Walter C. Dornez’s monofilament wires. Judging by the snarls on the dog’s faces, they were more than ready to cut him to ribbons for betraying their alpha.
However they soon were drawn to Eric’s Dragon Gauntlet, which was screaming the same word over and over again
[url=https://youtu.be/E7Zz7_7djNg[/embed]
Magic wisps poured from Eric’s eyes as he unleashed his raw magic forcing all three of them away. “Hate me all you want,” Eric said, firing a tendril and retrieving his Murasame. “But I guarantee you would do the same if it was Shiva or Celine being held by him.”
“I did, and it ruined me!” Kodo snarled. “I won’t let you do the same thing to yourself!”
“Even if he did,” Luke growled. “I’d stop him, like I should’ve done the last time.”
“Shave,” Eric muttered rushing Luke at a blinding speed
His instincts took hold as he jumped back, unfortunately Eric still managed to nick his finger. Eric reappeared a good distance away looking back at the Diamond Dog with regret and remorse.
“W-What?” Luke mumbled, as his claw blackened with a curse.
“One-Cut Killer: Murasame” Eric said as he watched in sadness as the curse spread from the cut. “No matter how shallow the wound, as long as it cuts the target they will always die.”
Instantly, Kodo snagged Eric with a link that he tied to Luke. “He dies, you die!” Kodo snapped, as Eric felt the effect of the curse spread not just from Luke, but to him.
“But it doesn’t matter,” Eric said aiming his arm forward as a red ball of energy forms, rearing his fist back Eric strikes the orb launching a massive beam engulfing Luke, at the same time Eric seizes the link in his sacred gear and destroys it
All three were blinded by the light the beam gave off, once the light faded all they say was the curse claw of their father.
“Dad?” Kodo whispered, blinking in disbelief.
“D-Daddy?” Celine whimpered.
Reaching into his pocket Eric pulled out a black pocket watch, opening the watch the two Diamond Dogs saw a white orb flow from the hand to the watch.
“With your soul I can bring you back once this is over,” Eric whispered as he closed the watch and returned it to his pocket.
However, his words were lost on the mother diamond dog, who plowed into him with a howl of unbridled rage.
“I JUST GOT HIM BACK, YOU…” Shiva forewent curses, cussing him out in barks, growls and howls as she ripped, tore and gutted him with her claws. Her tendrils turned into bladed tentacles, stabbing into Eric’s wrists and pinning them down as Shiva eviscerated him, barely seeming to care that she was ripping apart shadows.
“Killing me won’t bring him back” Eric uttered out. “I’m the only one who knows the spell to bring him back” Eric began to whisper something else but Shiva heard none of it
Shiva silenced him by grabbing his jaw, slamming his head against the ground. “Even if I couldn’t read your mind and discover the magic,” she snarled. “I would NEVER accept that. My duty as Alpha is to put my own desires behind the needs of the many. Something you’ve proven you can’t do! Despite being given the rank of a leader, you are unworthy of it!” She slammed his head against the ground again and again with every word after. “JUST! LIKE! HIM!”
Her memory flashed, but Eric had no time for her stories. Instead, he had spent it whispering another spell.
“...I Call upon the Iron Maiden!”
Tendrils wrapped around her body encasing it in a shadow cocoon… only for tendrils of light to snag her. Kodo and Celine fought to hang onto her as she was dragged into the darkness. Kodo kept his eyes on Eric, trying to keep his mother out of the shadows while also being prepared for any attack.
Unfortunately the cocoon was inching closer. “I never wanted this to happen, stand down. That’s all you had to do” Eric said using his powers to pull the children into their own shadows
“FUCK YOU, YOU… EDGELORD!” Kodo screamed as he was dragged under. “YOU SIDED WITH RYKER! YOU LET HIM BREAK YOU! YOU…!” Then he was pulled under, and spoke no more.
“A man can have everything, and yet nothing if he has nopony to love” Eric said somberly before looking at Shiva, who was desperately clawing her way out of the cocoon. “I won’t deprive them of a father and a mother.” Eric dispelled his magic. Shiva came out barking like a rabid animal, only to accidentally lunge right into Eric’s Shadow Zone to be with her children
Eric turned to Ryker. “What now Ryker! Please return Luna to me,” Eric said desperation clear in his voice. “Whatever you ask of me I’ll do it just return Luna”
"Uh…" Ryker leaned back, "Luke is still alive, his soul needs to be carried to the afterlife so…" Ryker then spun around randomly.
Luco shook his head, but didn’t interfere. “You see that, Blazy…” he started to say, before noticing Vine was the only dragon there. “Er… Viney? You see that? That’s the power a woman really has over men. You let em stick their dicks in ya, and they become putty in yer hands.”
Vine hummed. “I… think it’s a lot more than that,” she said, taking a drag of her joint. “I don’t envy being in a hostage situation. For now, I’m willing to see how this plays out.” She settled back on a leaf-like cushion.
“Ryker please nopony has to do this,” Eric insisted. “Just stop this”
Ryker's facade broke for a split second showing a face of remorse and guilt. Ryker then shook his head, "I only need one being to die. Please Eric, my love for my daughter is like your love for Luna. "
“That’s kinda creepy,” Luco muttered. “You want to fuck your daughter?”
Vine hit Luco on the head, sending him into the ground like Elmer Fudd with the elephant before letting out a breath of calming herbs. “Ignore him,” she said in a soothing voice. “He’s a troll. His words are nothing but the pimples on a gnat’s ass. Breathe...” She breathed. “Breathe…”
Ryker began to breathe heavily and his eyes turned Ruby red. "I… Okay, okay, I'm fine, everything is cool." Ryker shook his head and his red eyes turned back to green. "I am sick Eric, corrupted by love and slowly dying. As this fight progresses I'm slowly going bloodlusted and INSANE!!! It's a curse that the Void Dweller gave me!" Ryker said, glitching out.
“Then End this” Eric pleaded.
Ryker had a tear in his eye, "I… Can't. I've only had one purpose for seven thousand years, to bring back my daughter." Ryker's eyes turned back to red. "And that is what I'm going to do…"
Before Ryker could speak any further an electric current was sent through him which only made him chuckle. Turning around he saw Luna had grabbed hold of his ankle and was sending trillions of volts through his body
Ryker then summons a jar of dirt, "Back in the dirt young lass," Ryker then puts her in the jar o' dirt.
“Hehe,” Luco tittered drunkenly, his head poking out of the ground. “Moon in a Mason Jar.”
"You get the reference?” Ryker said, tilting his head towards Luco.
Luco’s head spun in the ground. “I’m Discord’s Disciple,” he slurred. “I LURRRVE pop-culture re-reverends?”
“References?” Vine asked, puffing on her joint.
“That!” Luco said with a nod. “Yessir.”
"...Well then you're going to love this!" Ryker then struck a Jojo's Pose, his top half of his clothing shot off. Ryker's bulging muscles showed and purple Japanese letters flosted around his body. "STANDO POWAH!!!!"
Luco tittered, but before Ryker could attack...
“Don’t!” Eric yelled. “Give her back, Ryker.”
"THEN KILL SOMEONE!!!" Ryker roared.
“Fine,” a familiar voice growled.
Without warning Eric was shot in the back of his head. He tumbled to the ground, Shiva standing behind him holding a smoking gun.
"Get fucked!" Thanos cried out, "Sorry, I am legally obligated to say that when someone gets wrecked."
“But…” Vine blinked, trying to register Shiva’s presence. “You got sucked into his chest? How…?” She glanced at her joint. “This really is that good shit!”
“Or…” Kodo brought forth a pack link, which revealed what had happened:
Several minutes earlier… The Shadow Zone
Shiva pulled herself up before looking around, she saw nothing but an endless black void, debris floating aimlessly around.
“SHOW YOURSELF, TRAITOR!” Shiva howled.
“I never wanted this,” Eric’s voice replied. Though Shiva could neither smell him nor see him, she could feel his presence all around her as he spoke. “It was for that reason I kept her away from the tower.”
Shiva looked down with a growl. “All those offers Ryker gave me. All those chances to just walk away…” She looked up. “Did they mean NOTHING to you?”
“I’m sorry,” Eric’s voice whispered. “Truly I am.”
Without warning, Kodo and Celine appeared from behind one of the broken buildings.
“Mother!” Celine cried, racing to her side.
“Mom!” Kodo howled.
Shiva was at their side in an instant, holding them close, even as her arms trembled, knowing of the one member of their family that once again could not join them.
Eric’s form materialized in front of them, his body fading in and out with the surrounding shadows. Instantly, Shiva and Kodo blasted at him with beams of blue light, but their attacks merely caused the form to flicker and distort, like they were fighting a hologram.
“Damn you,” Kodo spat. “You’re going down the same road I did! It will lead you to nothing but ruin!”
“Save your breath, son,” Shiva growled. “It’s wasted on men like him.”
Eric reached into his pocket and pulled out the same black watch that took their father’s soul. “Had I wanted I would have split all three of you up to wander aimlessly within my Shadow Zone, none of you would have found each other unless I wished for it,” Eric said, dropping to the ground. “But...I don’t want this to continue.”
Off in the distance a deceased body began to float by before stopping in front of the Shadow man. “I will return what I have stolen from you.” Opening the watch the Diamond Dogs were shocked to see a transparent Luke appear before them.
Shiva, Kodo and Celine blinked, stunned at the male’s appearance. Luke instantly moved forward, only for his form to dissipate when his family tried to touch him. Kodo nearly whirled on Eric again, but Celine stopped him from responding, her brown eyes far more patient and willing to give Eric a chance.
“This was one of Umbra’s greatest spells,” Eric said as his eyes filled with magic. “This is going to feel very unpleasant.”
Luke huffed. “Yeah, cuz dying was such a pleasure cruise,” he snarked.
Eric forced his hand into the soul before lifting him up, however he felt no pain, he just felt like an ice cold hand was resting on his stomach. With soul in hand Eric shoved him into the dead body, Eric’s magic began to cover the body as it changed the Race, Height, weight, and even the gender of the body until it resembled the spitting image of the Diamond Dog before his second death.
“Now it’s up to you” Eric said looking towards the Diamond Dogs. “You must give him a reason to wake”
Shiva still watched Eric suspiciously, but turned her attention to the diamond dog, winding a tendril around his head. “Luke,” she whispered. “We survived so much together; Beast Breaker’s pits, the Elements of Harmony, the Changelings, Umbra…” She lowered her head. “It may be my duty to put my personal desires behind the needs of the pack, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t kill me every time.”
Kodo clutched his father’s claw. “Please, Dad,” he said. “I know what I did was wrong, trusting Umbra over Celestia… I always saw losing you as the biggest consequence for my idiocy.” He looked up at his dad. “Please. I’ll never fall to the path of darkness again. I’ll accept being hated by the rest, but… please let me at least have you.”
Celine took his other claw. “I thought I could come to terms with you leaving,” she said. “But when you showed up, and got me off that meteor…” She rested her head against his claw. “Don’t make me go through losing you again, Daddy. Please don’t!”
Their pack links spiraled around Luke, making him glow like a pokemon about to mega-evolve. Then… he straightened and let out a gasp.
“That’s twice now I’ve come back from the dead!” he stammered. “Experience is not improving!”
But his family didn’t care. Knocking him to the ground, they cuddled and whimpered around him, sobbing in relief.
“I’m glad you’re alive,” Eric said before getting to his feet. “But nothing in this world is free.”
Shiva’s ears flattened. “What do you want?” she growled.
Eric pulled his coat back showing a single revolver at his waist, Pulling the gun from it’s holster, Eric loads it with a single bullet before turning it over and handing it to the Diamond Dogs.
“I want you to put a bullet into my skull” Eric said calmly
Celine blinked. “W-What…?” she started to say.
“Done,” Kodo said, snatching the gun up and aiming it at his head.
“Whoa-whoa!” Celine yelped, grabbing the gun before Shiva gripped the barrel, halting their quarrel. When she spoke, her voice was cold, but even.
“Why?” she asked.
“That won’t work in here Kodo” Eric said before shaking his head. “You need to shoot the real me, this is just my manifestation in the shadows.” Eric then looks to the Pack leader and looks at her with pure regret and remorse. “Because my mind is broken, I’ve betrayed my friends and I’ve taken away the one you love. I’m not fit to breathe at this point.”
“On that, we agree,” Kodo said darkly.
“Kodo!” Celine barked in protest. “Would you rather the Elements killed you instead of giving you the chance to redeem yourself?”
“Don’t answer that,” Shiva said sharply to both of them. “Remember, Celine; this isn’t about personal wants. This is about the pack.” She pulled the gun out of Kodo’s hand before turning to Eric. “You let us out of here, and we will do what needs to be done.”
Eric walks up to Shiva before clasping her paws around the gun. “I’m going to let you out of here, When that happens get as close as possible and shoot me in the head” Eric said stepping away from the Alpha. “This bullet is made from Sea Prism Stone” Eric explained before shoving his hands in his pockets. “I trust you the most Shiva, it has to be you. I’ve hurt you and yours enough.”
Shiva took a slow breath, and clicked the gun’s hammer back. “Thank you, Eric,” she said.
Shadows began to swirl around the four of them. “And if possible, please heal Sombra and tell him to not bring me back”
Kodo turned to Celine. “You hear that, Celine?” he asked. “When we get out of here, get to Sombra and help him.”
Celine gazed up at everyone with hurt doe eyes. “This doesn’t feel right,” she said.
“No,” Shiva admitted. “But it has to be done.”
“Thank you,” Eric said as they were engulfed in shadow
When they emerged from Eric’s Shadow Zone they saw Ryker putting Luna back into a Jar of Dirt and Eric on the verge of a mental breakdown.
“Don’t!” Eric yelled. “Give her back, Ryker.”
"THEN KILL SOMEONE!!!" Ryker roared.
“Fine,” Shiva growled.
Pulling the trigger, Shiva sent the Sea Prism stone bullet into the back of Eric’s head. Eric fell to his knees before falling flat onto the ground
“I’m….Sor…” Eric whispered as the light left his eyes
"Get fucked!" Thanos cried out, "Sorry, I am legally obligated to say that when someone gets wrecked."
“But…” Vine blinked, trying to register Shiva’s presence. “You got sucked into his chest? How…?” She glanced at her joint in understanding. “This really is that good shit.”
Kodo showed the whole thing to the terra-drake with a pack link, while Celine avoided her pack’s gaze, focusing on healing Sombra. Shiva, however, turned the gun on Ryker, who made Luna disappear into a small portal.
“E… Eric,” Sombra grunted through the pain
“Sh, don’t move,” Celine said as she worked her magic.
“He… needs… help” Sombra said trying to crawl to his friend.
Celine’s ears flattened. “I can’t do that,” she said, her voice cracking as she linked to Sombra, letting him see the conversation they had. Eric’s final words.
“I’m going to let you out of here. When that happens, get as close as possible and shoot me in the head. And if possible, please heal Sombra and tell him to not bring me back.”
“I… don’t care. He’s the… only family… I have left,” Sombra said, trying to get to his feet only to be knocked out by Celine, as she let Shiva’s play dead spell seep into her link.
“I’m sorry,” she whispered, struggling not to cry.
"You know, I just want to say that… Grievous is in Minecraft land…" Ryker then took a sip of his smoothie. "Which has NOTHING to do with the situation at all! Hah! I'm so random!"
Shiva sighed, lowering her gun. “You got your last murder,” she said. “Now let the rest of us go.”
"Alright, let's-" Ryker opened a book and saw something. "...GOD FUCKING DAMN IT!!!! THAT WASN'T THE LAST ONE!!!! I need one more!" Ryker roared in anger. "FUCK!!!!"
“WHAT?!” Shiva, Luke and the others yelled.
"I'm sorry Shiva, so sorry, I kinda need one more… Then you can go scot…" Ryker's eyes glowed, signalling that he's going deeper into insanity.
“Oh, no…” Shiva moaned, shielding Luke with her body, while Vine rose up from her cushion. Luco blinked out of his stupor, and teleported away with a flash of fireworks.
“I need… One…. More…. ANYONE!!!” Ryker said with a smile. Suddenly, Black had a migraine, and Ryker’s laughter filled his head. Black roared in pain as he clutched the side of his head, dropping out of Ultra Instinct and into his base form.
[url= ][u] [/u][/url]“EYEHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! TURN TO THE DARK SIDE YOUNG MICHAEL!!!!” Ryker ordered, “FEEL THE HATE FLOW THROUGH YOU!!!!!” Ryker cackled.
Vine watched the whole thing in horror. “STOP!” she cried, before clenching her teeth. “I’ll…” a sudden calm came over her. She took a long drag on her joint.
“GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!!!” Black roared as he fell onto his knees, writing in pain as he began to shake.
“Thanos is your rival, you will never surpass him with your… Puny strength. I can give you more…” Ryker’s voice echoed in Black’s head.
“That's… that's not t-true! I don’t want y-your strength!” Black shouted as he slowly began to rise into the air.
“You are nothing, you will always be nothing, without your Ki you’re just a weakling. You are but a leaf to be stepped on in the fall, Katakuri already crushed you, Eric crushed you… it’s only a matter of time before Thanos crushes you as well… “ Ryker said in a low chuckle.
“GET OUT!!” Black roared as he transformed into a Super Saiyan 2. His cries of agony began to shake the world as rocks shattered underneath him.
“YOU KNOW IT’S TRUE BLACK!!! YOU’RE NOTHING!!!! A LOSER, A FAILURE YOU NEVER WON AGAINST ANY DISPLACED!!!! You might as well seal your universe off and go crawl in a hole and die! But I can fix you, you can become the strongest! You can become stronger than Thanos!” Ryker said, his voice getting louder.
Black then began to get flashbacks to his time before being displaced, the time where he was outcast, his ‘friends’ using him only to throw him out.
“Stop thinking that way,” a new voice said in Black’s head. Smaller, but kinder. The voice of Celine. “I may not have known you for long, but you aren’t among those people. The ones here haven’t rejected you; they don’t want to use you. You are our friend!”
“Ah… Celine… What a wonderful failure! Black is a stupid monkey, even the guards said it when they saw him. And ponies are the kindest race out there, it’s because you lack aggression, you lack the will to WIN. That’s why you’ll never unlock Conqueror’s Haki, because you're no king, you’re nothing but a low class monkey.” Ryker taunted, immediately the voices of all who defeated Black, all who insulted him.
“Who are you talking to?” Celine replied. “Me? Him? Or yourself?”
Immediately, Ryker found himself back in that village. The day Kaido had raided and killed everyone. Rainbow Dash’s head bouncing away. Luna giving him her blood. Apple Bloom abandoning him.
“Ah… Trip down memory lane! Oh how I love that memory, it reminds me how I can only trust my family!” Ryker exclaimed, “Oh ponies, so kind yet so harsh. Me and you are alike Black, thrown away and cast aside like trash. The difference is that I have power, I can punish those around me, you can have power too you know…” Ryker mused.
“That power means nothing!” Celine insisted. “Not when you use it to only hurt and destroy.”
Undeterred, Ryker put more work into the Saiyan. Black roared in agony as the intensity grew as red lightning began to arch around him, the sky darkening as the Saiyan cried in pain. But… it all came to a stop. The Saiyan dropped out of the sky, falling onto the ground and onto his knees as he began to gasp for air. Luna Black ran over, but as she got close, she noticed his physique changed slightly.
The Saiyan had a slightly bulker build with veins popping out in places. But as the Saiyan slowly got up, he became silent.
“...Black…?” Thanos said, looking at the Saiyan. Approaching him, “Buddy? Buddy ol’ pal?”
He lifted his head, and to everyone's horror, a cursive R was planted on the Saiyans forehead.
The Saiyan answered her with a laugh, it growing in volume as it became devilish.
Majin Goku Black… was born...
Ryker began to laugh psychotically, and the whole island tilted sideways, Entity immediately stuck his scythe down to not slide off the island. “LET THE GAME BEGIN!!! EYEHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!”
“Black, come on man, did you really listen to Ryker’s Sith mind tricks?” Thanos put a hand on Black’s shoulder. “Come on!”
Majin Black turned to the Titan, revealing his slitted pupils, “Oh… you're so wrong.”
“How many times do I have to teach you this old man? Get out of Black’s head,” Thanos sighed, somewhat annoyed at this, he then walked around and stood in front of him. “Black, be serious for once, this is coming from me of all people. This is a big bad-” Thanos then turns to Vine, “Oh and by the way you have a kickass name that fits,” Thanos said to the drake.
“Oh, thanks,” Vine replied.
The Titan was interrupted as he was punched in the gut, he turned to see a grinning Majin Black. “Your so predictable, letting yourself open to attacks as you get distracted.” Majin Black scolded
“Your mom’s predictable!” Thanos decked Majin Black in his schnoz, “Bitch ass motherfucker! No offence Shiva, Celine, by the way you two are absolutely adorable together.” Thanos complemented the two, even though they were currently stuck.
Black swung his head back, nailing the Titan in the forehead as this sent Thanos flying off in the horizon.
“Wee!” Thanos said as his voice faded away. “eeeEEEEE!!!” Thanos comes back and headbutts Majin Black, his head slamming into Majin Black’s. Sending the Saiyan crashing into ground, “No head is as hard as mine, I am so hard- Hold up that sounds gay.”
“I don’t know,” Vine tempted, wagging her tail at him. “With the right woman in front of ya, you just sound hot.”
“...Don’t tempt me.” Thanos said, frowning.
“And more importantly, don’t distract him!” Shiva barked, pointing at Black.
Indeed, the dark Saiyan got up and revealed to Thanos, he took no damage from his attacks. Transforming into Super Saiyan 4, he charged forward and grabbed Thanos by the neck and began to drag the Titan across the Island. Finishing it off by throwing him into a nearby hill and sending a devastating Ki blast.
“OH THAT’S IT!!!” Thanos was now in Burst Man, and decking Majin Black again in his nose. Burning it. “Fuck off!” Thanos grabbed Black and flew off into the skies so they could fight.
“The both of you, that's enough!!” Luna Black cried out as she then spread her wings, taking off and following the two.
“FUCK OFF!!!” Both of them roared at Luna Black before commencing their fight.
“You gon’ get it!” Thanos threatened, kicking Majin Black in his rib and hitting his chin. “ATATATATATA!!!!” Thanos began to box the shit out of Majin Black, puncing him over and over again before kicking him away.
The dark Saiyan then let out a burst of energy that created a shockwave, pushing the Titan back. Majin Black then began to charge a Kamehameha, looking at Thanos with a devilish grin. “Time to play catch.” Majin Black said as he looked down to the island. The Dark Saiyan then turned to the island and shot a massive Kamehameha at it, the attack flying past Luna Black
“Bet!” Thanos flew down to the Kamehameha, “Now it’s your turn!” Thanos then roared in effort as he flung it back to Majin Black. “I love this game!”
The Saiyan smirked as to Thanos’s surprise, Black flew through the beam as it flowed around him. It did nothing to stop him as he landed a devastating gut punch into the Titan. It being followed by multiple of them as the two began to fall back down to the Island.
Thanos grunted in pain, before covering his fists in Ryou Haki. Pulling a sledgehammer down onto Majin Black, he slammed the corrupted Saiyan into the ground. Following after the Saiyan and kicking the Saiyan down into a cavern, Ryou Haki bypasses his defences and makes it so that his lungs get kicked. As the two fell into the cavern Ryker began to tap dance, Elia was clapping.
Lucci glared at Elia, “What? He’s good,” Elia complemented.
“Indeed I am!” Ryker explained, getting a Top Hat out of thin air, and began to dance like a certain frog.
Shiva glared at him for a solid minute, before turning away and walking off, digging a hole in the ground, and sticking her head into it. The earth rumbled with her shriek of frustration.
“Join me Luco! It’s not like you have anything better to do!” Ryker said with a grin, getting a cane as well.
“You want me to dance with the man who murdered millions?” Luco demanded indignantly… before pulling out his own top hat and cane. “What took you so long to ask?” He promptly began tap dancing side by side with Ryker.
“I am a slow man,” Ryker said, smiling more.
As the bicker above continued, the fight between Majin Black and Thanos began to escalate as the corrupted Saiyan transformed into Super Saiyan Rose. This took the Titan off guard as he was then getting overpowered by Majin Black. Thanos couldn’t keep up with the Saiyan as he was kicked into the side of the canyon.
Black landed in front of him, pointing two fingers towards Thanos as 5 ki rings shot forward, flying onto the Titan and onto his neck, ankles, and wrists. They tightened and locked Thanos into the side of the canyon. Thanos formed a ki blade and brought it up into the air, getting ready to strike down the Titan.
“That’s enough!” Elia cried out, making her way down the cavern.
[url= ][u] [/u][/url]The corrupted Saiyan stopped in his tracks as he slowly brought his ki blade down. Majin Black slowly turned his head over his shoulders and looked to Elia with a smirk.
“B-Black…? W-We can talk about this…” Elia stammered, backing away from Majin Black.
“So… you wanna play the hero?” The corrupted Saiyan asked as he turned around. “Alright… let me show you what happens to people who decide to play the hero, John.” Black said as he began to slowly walk towards Elia.
“L-leave me alone!” Elia summoned a blade of Wakfu and flew at Black readying her sword and prepared to slam it into Black.
The corrupted Saiyan merely scoffed as he used his free hand, slapping the sword out of her hand. This took her by surprise as the Saiyan grabbed her by the mouth and lifted her in the air. Majin Black then glanced at the group above and to Thanos. “Really, no one is willing to save her?” Black mocked.
“DON’T YOU DARE LAY A FINGER ON HER YOU BASTARD!!!!” Entity bursts from the ceiling, covered in flames, he then flung his scythe at Majin Black.
The Saiyan let out a hearty laugh and disappeared, Entity growled. The Saiyan reappeared in front of the minecraftian, and plunged his ki blade into his gut. Entity made an ‘Ough’ sound.
“ENTITY!!!” Thanos cried out, he then exerts more pressure into the bonds, slowly managing to do it.
Majin Black turns to the rest of the group, “If any of you decide to interfere, the same will happen to you.” Black laughed as he turned to Elia.
“I WILL GUT YOU LIKE A FISH YE DAFT CUNT!!!!” Thanos roared as he tried to release himself from the bonds. He was doing it, the rings started to crack.
Majin Black turned to the Titan, firing another ki ring and this time it covered his mouth. He tightened the bonds, drawing a little blood this time. “Oh, I’ll get to you in, aminute.” Majin Black laughed as he twisted the ki blade in Entity’s gut before pulling it out. Entity then falls down and hits the ground with a thud.
Glancing around, Kodo snuck over to Thanos, and linked with him. With the pup’s strength empowering him, Thanos then breaks his bonds. Going to Entity’s side, and checking his pulse. But as he did that…. Majin Black looked down on the Titan. “Oh don’t worry… he’ll respawn…” Majin Black laughed.
“You have a point but fuck you!” Thanos snapped, he then searched Entity for an Enchanted Golden Apple, while Kodo tried healing him with the link.
“As for you,” Black sang as he turned to Elia, who was hitting the Saiyans arm and letting out muffled screams. “Ryker does need one more after all.” Black said as he readied the Ki blade.
Elia tried to bite Majin Black and succeeded, biting into him like a feral hound. At the same time, vines wrapped around Black’s arm, restraining him as Vine stepped up, the earth forming a staircase that allowed her to ascend to Black’s level.
Black swore under his breath as he let go of Elia. “I tried to be nice…” Black muttered, the temperature slowly beginning to increase.
Vine shrugged. “It’s my job, big boy,” she replied. “And while I ain’t Blazy…”
“Oh hey Vine, how’s it goin’?” Thanos waved at Vine before feeding Entity the God Apple.
“Pretty good,” Vine replied. “Just gonna show Black here that just because someone’s second best don’t mean they ain’t something… nest?” She took a drag on her joint. “Eh, let me work on that.”
“Cool, uh… WAIT WHAT’S THAT-” Thanos tried to warn Vine but a clone of Ryker kicked Vine down deeper into the cavern.
Though Vine hadn’t noticed, flames had started to burn away at the vines. For a moment, everyone stared down in shock at where the terra-drake had gone… before another Vine stepped up next to Ryker, staring down at where her clone had gone.
“I’d hate to be her,” Vine noted with a grin, taking another drag on her joint.
“...Good thing I have me Irish Whiskey,” The Clone of Ryker opens a bottle and begins to take sip of it, “Tastes just like home,”
“Ah,” Vine nodded in understanding. “Mahogany…” she added with a smile.
Being the absolute troll that he is, Thanos squinted his eyes. “Mahogany…” Thanos said, TFS flashbacks playing in his head.
Vine merely chuckled, taking a particularly loud puff of smoke. Though it was hard to notice, the smoke was a pinkish hue. But as everyone breathed it in, their minds began to get foggy. Their limbs drooped, and an unexplainable urge came over them all to just drop to the ground and sleep.
“I’m just gonna… Hit the-” Thanos then sleeps standing up, like a damn horse.
Black stood up, a thin ki barrier protecting him from the smoke. Vine rolled her eyes at his resistance.
“Come on, Black,” she invited. “Take a load off. Calm down a touch. You might enjoy it.”
"Sure why not, in return, ILL BURN YOU TO ASH!!" Majin Black roared as two whips of fire formed in the Saiyans hands. He wiped around the vines trapping him as they bagan go burn away.
Vine sighed, her grin fading. “And here I was hoping plants would do the trick,” she said. “Oh, well…” Taking a breath, she dropped down into the hole her clone had dropped into. As she fell, the stones shifted around her, before rocketing up to catch Black, entrapping him in the earthen material.
A few seconds pass, before the ground began to rumble. The dirt rising into the air before a massive explosion followed. Majin Black flew out of it unscathed as he looked down among the island again. He cupped his hands together and brought them to his side as he charged a devastating Kamehameha.
Vine tilted her head before glancing at the island. “Hold on,” she said. “You’re not really gonna…”
Elia crawled out to land and wiped sweat from her forehead… She finds herself in front of Ryker. “Yeet!” Ryker then throws her into the Kamehameha, grinning wildly.
“HELL NO!” Vine yelled, snagging Elia with her vines, and yanking her to her side.
"IT'S THE END FOR YOU, HHAAAAAAAAA!!!" Black threw the blast forward as it shot towards the island, growin into the side of a small village.
“FOR FUCK’S SAKE!!!!” Ryker then slammed his body into Vine. However, the terra-drake… matched him? In that moment, Ryker and Vine locked eyes, and in her eyes, the Irish King saw a protective anger that had only shined in those glazed eyes once.
At the same time, Vine turned her gaze to the kamehameha flying at her, and her eyes glowed like solar beams. Her beam matched Black’s… and canceled it out.
“What? You didn’t know?” Vine asked, grinning at Black’s look of confused rage.
“Three Tails hasn’t released any stories about the terra-drakes yet!” Luco replied from the side.
“Who’s...?” Vine asked, before shaking her head. “Whatever. Either way… terra-drakes are designed to protect the earth and all it’s living creatures. If you’re looking to bust a planet…” she shook her head. “I’m sorry, but I can’t let that happen.”
“Women,” Ryker scoffed, his eyes turning full red he turned to Elia and yanked Elia close to him using threads. “GET OVER HERE!!!! FINALLY I WILL MEET MY DAUGHTER!!!! Sorry Elia, not sorry!” Ryker brought out Enma and readied himself to slay the Eliatrope.
However, Vine saw what he was doing, and threw herself forward. “If someone’s dying,” she said calmly. “It’s me.” Only for Thanos to come in like Officer Earl and tackle both Elia and Vine out of the way.
“I WANNA KILL SOMEONE!!!” Ryker whined, he then went to his knees and hit the ground with his fist. “I WANNA I WANNA I WANNA I WANNA I WANNA!!!!” Ryker wailed in anguish.
“You’re absolutely pathetic,” Shiva grumbled from the side.
“Would you do this if you mate, and children vanished?”
“No! Why do you think Luke was dead when I showed up?” Shiva demanded.
“Oh, you would, fucking literal bitch.” Ryker snapped back, “I WANNA KILL SOMEONE!!!! I’d even take Link, and he’s pathetic!”
Black used instant transmission to appear next to Elia, "Boo," Black Said as he grabbed her by the neck. Vine, however, grabbed his arm, and all three were teleported away.
As they reappeared, Vine realized where she appeared as she saw the sun was incredibly bright and it was night all the sudden. 'Welcome to the moon, Vine. 'Black said telepathically
Vine hummed. “Cool,” she replied, a bouquet of flowers forming around her snout. Instantly, she lifted up two moon rocks, and made a Goku Black sandwich.
Ryker slowly crawled towards Elia while she was occupied, “Finally, I got to kill a woman!” Ryker raised his blade, “Again!” As he got close… His teeth got sharper and his red eyes glowed brighter. “You’re gonna be the sacrifice!”
“Nope,” Vine said, yanking Elia away with a moon rock platform.
“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” The whole island then leveled up, the island splits apart into bits and pieces as Ryker roared in anger. Energy of Destructions formed around him as he snarled at everything, “I WILL RIP OFF YOUR CLAWS AS SHOVE THEN SO FAR UP YOUR ASS!!!!”
“Kinky,” Vine replied.
Ryker roared in frustration at this, and shot a beam at Vine. However, it bounced off her hide. She giggled.
“I did mention I was built to stop planet busters, right?” she asked.
“What about Multiverse busters?” Ryker snapped back, I defeated Galactus, I defeated Jiren, Beerus, and even the mighty Charavatin,” A hand was put on Ryker’s shoulder.
“Would you like to repeat that you son of a bitch?!” Ryker was then punched by… Asura, the force made his neck snap towards Shiva.
“I will strangle a baby if I… Baby…” Ryker slowly turned towards Kodo with murderous intent.
Kodo merely growled at him, his fur smoking and flickering with lightning.
“No,” Shiva growled. “No-no-no-no-no-no-no-no….”
“Oh Kodo… Would you like to join your step father?” Ryker cooed, tilting his head as he summoned Shisui.
“I WILL RIP YOUR DICK OFF IF YOU TRY, YOU CUNT!” Shiva roared, blasting her pack links at him.
“KINKY!!! SHARK ON DARTS!!!!” Ryker then spun like a drill, shooting towards Shiva instead of Kodo. The Energy of Destruction surrounded him and obliterated the pack links as they touched his body.
For a moment, Shiva kept trying to hit him, undeterred… until Luco dropped in front of him.
“Yoink,” Luco teased, before, with a flash of fireworks, Shiva, Kodo, Celine, Luke… even Vine, who was watching Asura with intrigue… all vanished.
Ryker stood there before going to his knees, dropping out of his mini-form. “Why. Can’t. Things. Go. According. To. Plan?!”
“Because you’re an asshole?” Luco offered. But when Ryker spun to him, Luco was gone.
“I CANT ARGUE WITH THAT!!!” Ryker said, “You have a good ass point right there! Now where is Elia?” Thanos said, turning around.
Luco reappeared, holding the Eliatrope. “Oh, you mean… this Elia?” he teased, shaking her by the neck before gripping her shoulders. “Toro-toro!” he tempted, swinging her like a bullfighter with a red cape.
While he was distracted Lucci appeared before Ryker, stepping on his foot. Ryker gasped in horror and knew what was coming, “Sai Dai Rin… ROKUOGAN!!!!” A devastating shockwave pierced through his body, Ryker then coughed an ungodly amount of blood. Lucci then stepped off of Ryker and he took two steps back before going to his knees, then on all fours. Blood seeped from his mouth and it hit the floor.
“Way to go Lucci!” Elia said, pumping her fist up as Ryker coughed blood once more.
Ryker then lunged up and grabbed Lucci by his neck, a red aura surrounding him. “Oh… I will rip out your spine and shove it up the dragon's ass, I will rip off Link’s head and slam it into Shiva’s corpse. I will murder you.” Ryker snarled as his grip tightened around Lucci’s neck.
“Oh nigga,” Lucci squeaked, Ryker readied his hand to pierce through his body and grab his heart… only for a burst of fireworks to replace Lucci with a blow up doll with a nuke strapped between it’s fake boobs.
Ryker stood there…. Silent. He didn’t blink, breathe, or move. “Where’s my fucking gun?” Ryker grabbed his gun and shoved it upon mouth , tempting to pull the trigger. Withaa grew and threw it to space, “I will go to an orphanage and drench the children in the staff’s blood. I will make sure that they suffer as I did, because apparently I can’t do shit to these weaklings.”
“Or maybe, you figure out that’s how all these displaced felt about you,” Luco replied.
“DIE!!!” Ryker shot a Hakai at Luco, the Energy of Destruction threatening to wipe out Luco’s mind, body, and soul. But, of course, the Disciple of Discord teleported away once again.
“Oh, hello there.” Someone said as Luco reappeared. Before Luco could turn, he was kicked away and Elia was yanked out his grasp. Before they could comprehend what happened, a death curdling scream was heard, echoing throughout the world. They turn to see Majin Black standing there with a devilish grin holding Elia by the through, a ki blade going straight through her heart. Her screams were silenced when Majin Black increased his strength on her throat, a deafening crack echoed throughout the battlefield. “Oops… looks like I put in a bit too much strength in that.
Suddenly there was a storm of Dark Ki surrounding Ryker. “YEEESSSS!!!!! THE TIME HAS COME EXECUTE ORDER SIXTY NINE!!!!” Thanos got up from the cavern, groggy after that nap.
“Okay, Vine come over here,” Thanos said wobbling, before going flat on his face.
“I CAN FINALLY SEE MY DAUGHTER!!!!” Ryker roared in delight, the Dark Ki storm formed into a portal and it forced Ryker back. “Come here… Nora,” Ryker slowly approached the portal as it pushed against him, as he did so. Lucci crawled after him.
“No… You… Don’t!” Lucci groaned, he was then kicked by Ryker as he approached the portal to the Dark Realm.
“Seven thousand years of killing, seven thousand years of guilt and regret… It all ends now…” Ryker said with a sadistic smile, he was but inches to the portal, “Bring me to Nora!” Ryker then went into the portal and it closed shut. Everything was silent, Entity looked at Elia’s corpse.
“We… Lost…” Entity said silently, he then dropped to his feet. “We lost… It was all for nothing! Ryker won!”
Suddenly, there was a burst of energy around Majin Black, the Saiyan roaring in pain as dark ki left his body as an explosion. The dust cloud shortly fell afterwards to reveal Black in his normal state on the ground unconscious, the cursive R now gone.
Shiva reappeared over Black, grimacing. “I should leave you, traitor,” she growled, lifting her link. “But if you were brainwashed against your will…” she sighed, and started to work on healing him.
In the depths of Black’s mind, his surroundings showing the dark future with his wrist being binded to the ground. Black saw the white wolf, her arms lifted as she slowly but steadily set rubble into place, trees back into the ground. Her back was to him, but he could feel her energy pulsing through his body, healing his wounds, despite having a cold edge of bitterness.
The Saiyan winced as he looked down to his hands, his chains being cut off. “You have every right to hate me…” Black mutters as the surroundings slowly begin to change.
“Do I?” Shiva asked softly. She didn’t turn to him. “Part of me was hoping that Ryker brainwashed you. That there was a part of you… beating on walls from the inside. Unable to stop yourself, but… unable to do anything.” She looked back to him, her brown eyes dissuading any lies. “Was I wrong?”
Black grimaced as the landscape flashed with memories: his fight against Thanos. Him killing Elia. “It was like hell, I was watching everything, my voice was muffled as I saw my… myself causing these atrocities… again…” Black explained.
Shiva’s eyes softened with sympathy. She nodded, as an image of her own formed on the field: Kodo, but larger. Darker. His snout was set in a grimace of pain, but his eyes flashed green and purple, and an outline of Sombra, laughing cruelly, enveloped his form. Shiva gazed at it with pain.
“I know that feeling,” she said gently. As she shut her eyes, and the image of the corrupted Kodo faded away, the cold tinge of bitterness left her energy. Yet, there was still something wrong with her energy; like it was being held back against a wall. She turned to Black, with the sharp eyes of a Queen.
“Just tell me,” she said. “That if Ryker comes back through that portal, and he still intends to kill us all, you won’t stand against us again.” She offered her claw. “I’ll be with you this time.”
Black’s gazed at the ground as he stared at the now fixed future. He looked to Shiva’s claw before looking into her gaze. With sudden determination, his gaze hardened as he lifted his hand, gripping her claw. “You’ve got my word. I put my soul on it.”
Shiva’s tail gave one wag, and she shook his hand, as they left the mental realm with a flash of light.
A distance from the portal Sombra slowly opened his eyes and made his way over to Eric. “You saved me..countless times. “Sombra said as dark magic engulfed his hand. Sombra clenched his chest before pulling a transparent aura from his body. “Now...Let...me..return..” Sombra ripped the aura from his body revealing it to be his soul. “The favor” Sombra said weakly as he fell to the ground.
The hand holding his soul went into Eric’s body and began healing him, Inhaling a large gasp of air Eric looked at the ground confused. Getting to his feet he saw Sombra on the ground Dead.
“No..” Eric said lifting his friend, his brother. “Why...Why couldn’t you have just left me to my death”
Eric turned to the portal leading the the Dark Realm, setting Sombra down Eric made his way towards the portal
The Dark Realm.
It was all white and black, there were husks of the damned walking about. It reminded Ryker of the land of the Forgotten, Ryker looked around. “Whew… That… Was exhausting, took a lot of energy out of me.” Ryker looked around and noticed that he was in a graveyard. “Nora!” Ryker called out, his voice echoing across the dimension.
“Nora it’s me, Ryker! I am your father!” Ryker then walked around the graveyard, “It doesn't make sense, it says I would be able to reach my daughter when I asked for it too.” Ryker then looks up and sees a skeleton on a cross, he then looks down at the plaque it read…
“Nora O’Brian.”
“Cause of Death - Starvation.”
“Age of Death 13.”
Ryker gasped and looked up at the cross, “No… No, no, no, no!” Ryker reached to the skeleton and yanked the skeleton of his daughter to him. Ryker began to hug his daughter, “No, no, no, no… All those people I’ve killed… The friendships I’ve severed. It was all for nothing!” Ryker said shakely, he rocked the skeleton back and forth. Saying no repeatedly, he killed millions of people, destroyed civilizations, killed children, all of that… For nothing.
He killed everyone for nothing, he was a monster, a demon, he was a freak! Ryker dropped Nora and the voices of Shiva and the others rang in his head. He then began to claw at the sides of his head, “No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!” Ryker’s aura began to flare up, purple Ki surrounding him. “No, no, no, no, no, no, no,n no….” The purple Ki began to form into a sphere and it began to expand. Obliterating everything surrounding it.
“NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO!!!! NOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!” And then… The Dark Realm was destroyed.
Ryker shot out from a portal and rolled to his feet, chanting. “I’m a monster, a freak, a demon, I’m a monster, a freak, a demon.” Ryker chanted, “I killed everyone… For nothing… The people I viciously murdered… For nothing! Every night I think of those I killed, I believed that it was for a cause the only cause…”
“...” Thanos was silent, too shocked to even say anything. “R… Ryker…” Thanos reached out a hand towards Ryker.
“And now?” Shiva asked, her voice expressionless.
“Since I have nothing, I’ll destroy everything!” Ryker said, completely insane, “I MEAN EYEHEHAHAHAHHA!!! Might as well finish what you started!” Ryker went to his feet and got a bottle, popping the cork he then downed the bottle.
“Maybe,” Shiva said, before extending her claws. “Everyone… this is our last shot.” Her pack links flared out. “Either give me your power, or let this psychopath win, kill us all...” She grimaced. “And continue to use that annoying-as-ass laugh.”
Ryker is surrounded by an aura, an aura of Divine Light. He was then surrounded by energy of Destruction, adopting his Destroyer Form, six balls of Hakai surrounded Ryker. And they went in front of Ryker, combining and expanding into a huge ball, the skies began to darken and everyone was on the meteorite. Ryker’s eyes glowed red with Dark Ki and insanity as the area around him turned into dust.
At the same time, Shiva was surrounded by an aura of her own. Her links spread out almost like a mane of light, connecting to the others, and causing her to grow like Kodo had. As she rose to match and even surpass Ryker’s height, a ball of light formed in her jaws, shimmering with every color in the spectrum. Shiva’s eyes turned completely black, and the world around her stabilized, combatting Ryker's destruction.
Black woke up, slowly standing up to see what was happening. He saw Shiva using her pack links and using everyone's power. He grunted as he raised his hand and grabbed the pack link. "Take it all Shiva…" Black grunted as he transformed into Super Saiyan Rosé.
Thanos went to his full power, Lucci and Entity did the same, “TAKE OUR POWER!!!” They all cried out, going to their full power.
“TAKE DE BOWAH OF EBOLAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” Elae roared, going to Super Ebola Three, Brudus howled and poured his power in as well.
Vine gripped Shiva’s link tight, the link turning green as she poured her power into it. “The earth stands with you,” she said.
Eric walked up behind Shiva and placed a hand on Shiva’s link which surprised her. “As does the Shadows” Eric said pouring Every ounce of power and strength into the Diamond Dog
Luco gripped a link, the colors of chaos morphing and shifting into the link. “So we’ll have a tomorrow to fight again,” he declared.
Suddenly, Blazy Blue appeared next to him, her talon closing over a link as well. She shared a small smile with her father, before the two of them turned to Shiva with confident grins.
Deity Link raised his hands to provide magic and the last remains of Black’s ki he lended him in that one battle.
As Shiva reared up, a giant wolf of light, she let loose with a howl, enveloping herself and the others in a blinding aura of light, expanding outward like a bomb.
The ball of destruction expanded, “He shot the wave of Destruction back at the attack, Destruction against Life. Unfortunately for Shiva and the others, Destruction was winning, “YOU CAN’T BEAT ME!!! I HAVE THE POWER OF A MAN WHO'S LOST EVERYTHING!!!”
“Well, let us show you the power of a man who protects! I am fighting for my friends and my daughter back at home!” Thanos roared, using more power.
"And that's why you'll lose! I FIGHT FOR THE ONES I'VE FAILED TO PROTECT, AND FOR THE FRIENDS AND FAMILY I HAVE NOW!!!!" Black roared as he went Kaio-Ken Times 65.
“I am fighting to save the Multiverse from freaks like you!” Lucci declared, charging up and going Kaio-Ken times thirty.
“I am fighting to see my loved ones!” Entity shot back, growling.
“I AM FIGHTIN FOR DA QUEEN!!!!” Elae declared.
“FOR JOHN!!!” Brudus barked.
“I’m fighting for the loves I have lost,” Luke said.
“And the love I hope to regain,” Kodo added.
“And the bond that will never be broken,” Celine agreed.
“I fight for tomorrow,” Luco said. “And all the fun it will bring.”
“Mm,” Blazy said, before pausing and realizing she was already giving her power. “Fuck it,” she said. “I’m fighting so I may fight again tomorrow.”
Katakuri was now next to Blazy, “I’m fighting to fight!” Katakuri said pumping his fist up,
Vine chuckled. “I’m fighting so I can get more of that sweet kush,” she said jokingly.
“I fight because I'm so done with this shit. You’ve killed too many lives especially my beautiful dark elf Light, you’re been toying with us since day one of this meaningless tournament with your crazed lust of fight and corrupted need to bring back ONE person. You’ve gone too hylian damned far!” Deity Link said, then lastly let a long sigh.
“I fight to protect my friends and to avenge the ones I’ve lost” Eric then looked to the Diamond Dogs. “And to fix what I have broken.”
“You see, Ryker,” Shiva said, indicating her pack. “No matter what our motivations, we stand together. And together is when we are truly strong. Together, we are more powerful than any weapon. Stronger than any shield. And together, we will beat you.”
“No… No… No!” Ryker said as he was slowly getting pushed back, “NOOOOOOO!!!!!” Ryker roared as he was engulfed in light. “DAMN DEUS X MACHINAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” And then… Everything went white.
[url= ][u] [/u][/url]“We got him…” Thanos said, collapsing and dropping out of his form. Elae dropped down like a pile of bricks.
“For good this time? Like for real? No final forms, not coming back from the dead, no gods to fight…” Deity Link asks with hope, not wanting to remove the mask and Ryker suddenly pops out of the ground like an overgrown weed.
Cautiously, Kodo crept forward, and found Ryker’s bloodied body in the rubble. He was breathing, but injured and down for the count. Kodo flicked his tail in silent confirmation to Link’s query, his eyes not daring to leave the beaten menace.
“Everything… Since we began, the first round, the semi finals, the third place match, the finals, the tower and now… Ryker… It’s over. It’s all over!” Lucci said, going down into his knees.
“Everything is over… WE WON!!!!!” Brudus howled in victory and triumphant music began to play, Katakuri having a jukebox over his shoulder.
“What can I say, I love music,” Katakuri said with a smile, though no one could see it due to his scarf. Blazy could sense it, however, and smiled right back at him.
“GET FUCKED RYKER!!!!” Thanos approached the Irish King, grinning ear to ear.
“J...ust… K...ill me a...already…” Ryker said weakly, Thanos crossed his arms.
“And give you more of what you want?” Shiva huffed.
"Agreed… you don't deserve it." Black spat as he went back to his base form.
“He isn’t even worth killing” Eric said weakly as he went to retrieve Sombra
“Besides, we don’t kill,” Thanos turns to Eric, then back at Ryker, “Well, everyone but Eric and Sombra... don’t kill. You don’t get to pussy out of your actions, you’re gonna face them. Now how do we get back?”
“By doing this!” The voice of a familiar Eliatrope said, they turned to the voice and it was none other than Kyle. Kyle had forged a portal, “Now, your chariot awaits.”
“Alright, get in,” Thanos pulled out a stretcher out of nowhere. Ryker just stared at Thanos, “OH right, you can’t. Hah!” Thanos and Vine then put Ryker on the stretcher more than roughly. “Now, it’s time to find the Dragon Balls and revive all of our friends!” Thanos said, pumping his fist in the air as he went in.
“And then party,” Vine added.
“Well, that goes without saying,” Luco agreed.
“My bruddas, we may have suffered greatly during dis, but… We won, and with de Dragon Balls, you can revive your friends. You and Grievous could reunite!” Elae said, looking at Kodo.
Kodo smiled softly, but glanced nervously at Shiva. The white wolf had said nothing, merely watching Ryker with a look that implied she still wanted him dead.
“Mom?” Kodo asked gently.
Shiva sighed, lifting herself up. “Let’s just get out of here,” she said, sounding utterly exhausted as she limped after Kyle.
Kodo, Luke and Celine exchanged worried looks, as the white diamond dog left them all behind.
“I can’t feel mah dick…”
