Lord Tirek gives a prophecy about an entity that could destroy all fandoms, so the heroes of those fandoms unite to stop it.
The Dazzlings… Ancient creatures supposedly from Equestria, banished to another world, then brought low through devastating defeat. That’s all the library at Canterlot says about them, but how much do you really know about Aria Blaze, Sonata Dusk, and Adagio Dazzle? What if they weren’t created by Star Swirl the Bearded as is the popular belief? What if they weren’t from Equestria at all? And what if it didn’t have to be that way? What if we added some more characters? Hmm… Let’s see… Of course, the Rainbooms, but then… A courageous hero, sword, shield, yadda yadda yadda, that would show these sirens the way of good. Yes, that will do quite nicely. A villain, a terrible demon, to provide a challenge. And then… Ah, yes. A devil-may-care scoundrel, to bring them all together. And also… Yes, YES, YES!!!!! We include everyone. Not just My Little Pony, not just two fandoms, but EVERYONE. Let’s do all of this, and SEE! WHAT! HAPPENS!!!!!!!!!!!!! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Of course, this story is different from most stories, starting at the beginning of the hero’s journey in a new Infiniverse, but his story starts off with him facing against an opponent stronger than any other our Protagonist has faced, He won’t be coming out of this one with just a single hit loss. It’ll be dangerous and possibly deadly.
He’s Sword and I’m D30!
And we both welcome you to Geeks of the Round Table: The Dark Invasion!

(Canterlot At Night) In the land of Equestria in Fangea there is a city called Canterlot. In Canterlot, there is a royal castle. In this castle, there is a hallway. In this specific hallway walked a horse. She was white, with a colorful mane and tail, a horn, and wings. She was wearing a tiara that signified her as Princess of Equestria, as well as a mantle with a purple gem. On her flank was a picture of the sun, her cutie mark. Her name was Princess Celestia.
Princess Celestia was in a good mood. The sun court had gone flawlessly, except a little outburst from her sister about some sort of rumor about dark relics, but apart from that, she had had a good day. But then she saw that Luna wasn’t Raising the Moon, as was usual for this time of day-to-night.
“Huh, that’s weird,” she thought but knew where she could find her sister.
Heading to the Canterlot city library, she saw one glowing screen at the computer table. In front of it sat her sister, Princess Luna, talking to someone on her discord. Only the conversation was different from the ones Luna usually had online. Celestia stopped to overhear.
“You can do this, can’t you?” Luna said, with apparent worry.
“I don’t really see why I need to. After all, they’re just rumors,” The person she was talking to said.
“Well I think they’re true, and 50,000 bits agree with me,” Luna said
“Woah, 50,000?! Sold,” the strange person said.
“Even still, I’ve hired you to stop the ritual from ever being completed. Were this to happen, the world as we know it would end. Is that understood?” Luna said, in a serious tone of voice she hadn’t used in a millennium.
“Ok, but I’m in it for the cash, not the duty,” the stranger said snarkily.
“As long as you’re in, I don’t care why,” Luna said, before turning off the monitor.
“So, who was that?” Celestia said while Luna focused on raising the Moon.
“GAHHHH! Oh, it’s just you, sister,” Luna said.
“It’s not smart, wasting 50,000 hard earned bits on proving rumors that aren’t real,” Celestia remarked
“You just have to trust me, sister. It all will come to pass if we let it,” Luna said darkly
(Spooky Scary Skeletons) For an animated skeleton, Serif the Skeleton was a sexy beast. He was mostly undamaged, a feat considering he was a mercenary for a living. His outfit was impeccable, with a jacket that seemed made of leather but was actually a super strong alloy, and light cargo pants. On his skull was a helmet with night vision goggles fitted to make a visor. None of this would suggest that he was the geek lord of Undertale. That title gave him every single Undertale ability, as well as power in and over Undertale.
Another good thing was that his spaceship was scientifically proven as the coolest spaceship in existence, and was powered by improbability, meaning it could do anything- if the computer knew how improbable it would happen- and thanks to Serif’s processor upgrades, it always did- Serif the Skeleton, the Undertale Lord, flew the Heart of Gold.
“Now hot on the trail of those thingies you wanted,” His ship’s main computer, Eddie, said.
“Thanks, Eddie,” Serif said, spinning an attack bone on his finger as he looked out the primary viewport of the Heart of Gold. “Just think… what could we do with 50,000 bits?”
“SMOKE WEED EVERYDAY!!!” The voice came from one of the bridge windows that led to mini-dimensions. This one led to a lime green room with Snoop Dogg in it perpetually doing the tidy and singing.
Serif shut the window and cranked up Spooky Scary Skeletons. He was jamming out when suddenly Eddie came back online.
“Hey boss, there’s something weird going on out here,” he said.
“Tell me about it,” Serif said, distracted.
“Well, it looks like there’s somewhere we haven’t been yet,” Eddie continued.
“I’ve only been doing this for 2 months,” Serif said. “Well this looks extra freaky,” Eddie replied. “Well let’s go check it out!” “Right, now changing course,” The new course led Serif’s ship, the Heart of Gold, through a weird hole. “Woah,” Serif said. “Let’s go in!” Eddie said, and they did.
(Farewell Hyrule King) Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule I, Lord of Legend of Zelda, sat in his cabin in the spaceship he was exiled in. He had been banished by his own kind because of violent crimes and losing an election for supreme leader of his universe. As a result, he was forced to leave the universe. Which placed him where he was now, sailing in a fathomless ocean of superheated plasma. He was stranded and surviving off the food and water he had while roaming the void inside of his own ship. Eventually, he learned he was low on food and could not survive for another year. He was going to die, but he wanted to leave one last recording before he did. So he powered up his ship for one last recording. “To anyone who finds this ship, I will be long dead before you find this… but if you do find this ship, I want to say I’m sorry for What I’ve done in the past… What I’ve done is inexcusable, and I know now that I’m no better than anyone else. If that’s the case then I hope you can forgive me. Tell Nashi Dragneel that Daphnes is sorry,” Daphnes said, before ending the recording.
(Ooo) The Undertale Lord flew through the space between worlds, noting the weird differences between normal space and this space. Normal space was… space. But this was like sailing through water: thick and unyielding. It was actually an ocean of superheated plasma, but he felt what he felt. Worst part was, there didn’t seem to be anything out here. Just plasma, plasma, and more plasma.
“Eddie, this place is boring. Let’s go,” Serif said.
“Okee dokee! Turning around now.” Eddie began turning the Heart of Gold, but as they turned, Serif noticed something.
“Scratch that. Let’s check that thing out,” he said
“Okee dokee!” Eddie stopped turning and flew to the object. Approaching the strange object, he saw that it was a ship- a ship that was different than any he had ever seen, and he had seen a lot of ships.
“Let’s pick it up. Might be goodies inside it,” Serif said.
“Now engaging tractor beam.” Eddie began pulling the ship in.
(Canterlot At Night) "So who did you hire?" Celestia asked her sister.
"The best mercenary I could find, a certain Serif the Skeleton," Luna answered.
"For this? Doesn't he have a fandom to run?" Celestia asked dubiously.
"Are you really so blind that you don't see he meant every word he said? It wasn't some ploy to escape. We are talking about something that could destroy all of Equestria, even all of Fangea as we know it. And besides, Serif never does his lord duties- he leaves all that to Asgore," Luna said, evidently worried.
"Luna please, come to yourself. That insanity ended millennia ago, never to return. And besides, you have a moon to raise," Celestia reminded.
"Oh! uhh... I forgot about that," Luna said, making her way to the castle. After raising the moon, she ran one last errand before retiring for the night- checking on whether the stallion at the repair shop had fixed her computer. Seeing that he had, she took it home, set it back up, then went to bed. As she tried to calm herself, she thought of what had happened the day the baneful prophecy was given.
(Canterlot at Night) Luna couldn't concentrate. She had, for the time being, avoided entering anypony's dreams, for fear that her own fears would infect them. Instead, she sat in her room, alone with her demons. She took in the room, looking for distractions, finding one in the form of the word of the day on her computer. She found this desperately boring, but it was still effective in helping her not think of him. She opened to a page and read:
Fangea is a world of fandoms united. In this world, all the characters, big or small, live, play, work, and grow together. As was the case before the Fangeic Cataclysm, an event both before the canon of the various worlds and after the canon when all of the separate fandoms merged into one planet, there are intense battles of good vs evil, made more world-shaking by the various villains working together against the heroes. Everyone thinks that Fangea is a good thing, even if they aren’t satisfied with their individual lives, and those that can remember a time before Fangea say it is better this way. But now, the denizens of Fangea are afraid, because of a grim prophecy of a dark power returning. The first time this power struck, it nearly destroyed all of the worlds and was only stopped by the actions of legendary heroes, who are long gone now. If the Darkness was to return, who could stop it?
"Great," she thought. "Even the dictionary's tainted by the prophecy." Luna tried to stop her mind wandering down forbidden paths and instead remembered when the prophecy was first given three months ago.
Luna had been playing a video game in her room at Canterlot Castle when she heard the commotion outside. She had walked out for an apple when she saw Celestia, Cadence, and Twilight looking very relieved. "What's the uproar," she had asked.
"Lord Tirek escaped Tartarus again, but we were able to recapture him," Celestia had explained.
"I want to know who let him out. How could they have opened the portal?" Twilight had wondered.
"What I want to know is: why didn't he try to get any power?" Cadence had said.
"Can you catch me up? I'm kinda lost," Luna had said.
"Yesterday Lord Tirek escaped his confinement in Tartarus but didn't try his usual antics. In fact, he went past several ponies of each kind and ignored them all, even Discord, who reported his passing to the Equestria Royal Guard, who caught him before he boarded an apparently prepared ship bound for Super Smash Bros," Celestia had said. "They are bringing him here as we speak."
"Well, that's good. What could his motives have been?" Luna had wondered as the group made their way to the courtroom of Canterlot Castle. Inside, they saw four royal guards around a cage holding the most despised creature in all of Equestria- Lord Tirek.
“Do we really need to waste time talking about your crimes?” Luna had said to Tirek.
“It’s just a good thing we got him before he could take any magic,” Cadence had said.
“Why does he even try anymore?” Spearhead, a post-Royal Guardspony, newly self-appointed artist, had said.
“I would like to think that myself,” Twilight had said. “After two unsuccessful attempts to take over, wouldn’t he have learned by now?”
“Attempts to take over?” Tirek seemingly had asked. “This, and my prior attempt have merely been a test, practice for a true conquest which is to come, and all of Equestria failed.”
“A test?!” Twilight had asked, mortified at the idea she failed a test.
“What true conquest? By who?” Shining Armor had said. “The changelings? King Sombra?”
Tirek chuckled. “You actually think those insects are who I speak of? No, I speak of ancient evil from outside this fandom, greater by far than all the powers of Tartarus COMBINED!!! An evil… who SWIFTLY COMES!!!!!!”
Tirek’s eyes then turned completely white and glowed with significance. “When the lord of Undertale is found, a knight clad in green and caped in crimson shall come from behind the unpassable wall. Then shall the adherents unite and slayeth the serpent, and the Darkness shall rule the fandoms, and seeth himself reflected in his domain. Guard well thy lands, O skilled warriors, for the lord of Undertale ascends! Make swift thy actions, O high leaders, for the green knight swiftly cometh! Make sharp thy swords, O many fandoms, for the day of Darkness is at hand!!!”
Then the glow in Tirek’s eyes faded, and he went quietly to Tartarus.
(Canterlot at Night) Luna was shaken from her reminiscence by a knock on her door. "Luna? Are you there? It's me, Celestia. I want to talk," the knocker said.
"Come in," Luna said.
Celestia walked in and sat down on a bean bag facing Luna. "Why aren't you observing the dreams of Equestria's citizens?" she asked.
"I didn't want to taint them with my own worries," Luna responded.
"I know your worries, but hear me out. Imagine if everyone in Equestria knew of the severity of Tirek's claims. What would happen? Do you think everypony would just carry on with their lives?" Celestia asked.
"...I guess not," Luna said.
"I'm just trying to keep everypony safe and happy. Please, help me, and don't bring this shadow to Equestria. Stop pursuing plans to stop the prophecy while within these borders. And I'm going to have to stop your bounty hunter because you paid him with Equestrian currency. However, if you decide to continue while outside Equestria, I won't try to stop you." Celestia left the room.
"So I can keep going with my plans, I just need a new helper and a base outside Equestria, but where... I can pay Serif in Smash Gold, but from where..." Luna thought, then it came to her. She powered on her computer, then started to type an email.
Whis, remember that time you said you would do me a favor?...
(Return of Palutena) Far away from Equestria, an angel flew in the clouds. He had large, blue eyes and fluffy, brown hair, with a small cowlick poking out from the back. He wore a chiton decorated with red and gold hems along the bottom, which were fastened on the shoulder by a golden fibula with a red gem in the center. He wore this outfit with a brown belt lined with silver and a gold, triangular buckle on his waist, The angel had a pair of bronze and gold cuffs around his forearms, and singular gold rings on his upper left arm and right thigh. His brown sandals were decorated with crossing beige bands, and were edged at the top with white wool. His name was Pit, and he lived in Skyworld, in the Kid Icarus fandom, part of the United Fandoms of Super Smash Bros. He was flying around a tall stormcloud, glad that he had won the Wings of Pegasus indefinitely in a Smash tournament when he heard Palutena’s voice in his mind. “Pit! Piiiiiiiiiit! Come hooooooome,” She thought to him.
“Ugh, you don’t have to call like that, I can hear you in my head!” he thought back.
“Hee Hee! There’s a visitor that wants to see you. Get your head out of those clouds and fly on over!” Palutena thought.
“You know, you’re really get pushy Palutena! You almost sound like me at times!” The Goddess of Nature, Viridi said to Palutena with a bit of snark as Pit came flying in.
“Alright what’s up,” he said.
“Do you know Princess Celestia?” Palutena said.
“Yeah. She was at that party a few weeks ago,” Pit answered.
“Well, there’s something she wants you to do,” Palutena said.
“Really? What’s that, Lady Palutena?” Pit asked
“It’s not hard, and not too big a deal. If you want to say no you can,” Celestia said.
“Actually, I’m kinda bored right now. A task would be most welcome!” Pit said.
"Well, you see, it's like this: ever since Lord Tirek gave that prophecy 3 months back, Luna's had an unhealthy interest in the Entity of Shadows. I'm fine with her researching, but not dragging any part of Equestria into her problems. The problem is she paid a mercenary 50,000 bits to investigate some things about the Entity," Celestia explained.
“Ugh, I swear, ARE LUNA AND I THE ONLY ONE SEE THE SIGNS OF THE ENTITY OF SHADOW’S RETURN?!” Viridi said before she was petting a new baby Cragalanche, who was made of solid stone and was pure silent
“As I was saying-" Celestia tried to continue.
“Celestia, with all due Respect, YOU ARE NOT TAKING ACTION ON A MATTER THAT IS NOT JUST MERE RUMOR, AND COULD DESTROY ALL OF THE UNITED FANDOMS AS WE KNOW IT!! This is literally what was prophesied long ago! Once the Lord of Undertale has been born, it will not be long before the Entity of Shadows will return. However, following his return will be a Knight Clad in Green and a red cape to defeat him!” Viridi interrupted.
“Thank you, Viridi. You may leave,” Palutena said.
“I AM NOT EVEN HERE! ANYTHING YOU CAN DO, I CAN DO JUST AS WELL, IF NOT BETTER!!” Viridi shouted at Palutena angrily.
“You are dismissed,” Palutena said, before closing the connection.
“As I was saying, I don't want any part of Equestria darkened by the prophecy's influence. As such, I told her she could not send equestrian citizens to investigate, so she spent 50,000 bits on hiring a bounty hunter to check it out. I need you to deter this bounty hunter. Use force at first, then present a higher paying job. He’ll likely forget about Luna. Then try to reclaim the bits. That's the important part. If he's determined, convert them to Smash Gold, just get them back,” Celestia said.
“Alright, then. I might as well… Even though it sounds kinda awful letting those 50,000 bits go to waste for nothing…” Pit said, not fully aware of all his options.
“Thank you, Pit. And remember, if he wants to keep the job, just turn the bits to Gold,” Celestia clarified.
(Hyrule Wariiors Mysterious) Pit followed the trail until he came to a hole in the unbreachable wall that held in Fangea's atmosphere. "Oh my gosh! There's a hole in the sky! And it looks like the mercenary flew through it!" he said, flying through himself.
Down below, in Equestria, someone else was watching the hole-a small, blonde-haired gray horse. "Oh wow, that angel's really brave. flying through a hole that could easily be dangerous." Derpy Hooves, for that was her name, looked at a clock that was next to her drone controller. "Buck! I didn't see the time! I know what I'll do." She took some string and tied it to the forward button of her controller and made the drone fly through the hole. "There! now when I get back from my deliveries, I can see what happens!"
(Later That Same Evening) "Ok! All finished!" Derpy said, re-entering her house. "Let's see what happened." Derpy viewed the drone's footage through the controller, as much as she could before it ran out of battery. The drone had managed to find the ship before the angel and fly in through an open docking bay. What she saw surprised her, for it was strange indeed.
(Hyrule Warriors Mysterious) The drone had flown for a long time past the opening, into an ocean of superheated plasma. Eventually, it came to a spherical spacecraft and found a way into an open hanger. There it found another ship and, thanks to the spells and string Derpy had placed on the controller, was able to keep up with all the action that unfolded there.
(When Your Middle Name Is Danger) Daphnes made sure to make no noise while the doors were forced open and had made sure that his cabin was already emptied and had a note on it saying DO NOT OPEN, hoping nobody would peek inside the cabin to find him. Daphnes was only able to hide as he had Delta suppress his heat signature to the exact temperature that the room was at.
Suddenly, the wall of the cabin was cut open with a lightsaber. “Alright, let’s check this out!” Serif said, entering the ship through the hole he made.
Immediately, Daphnes was hidden underneath the cabin bed but made sure that he was out of site from this Stalfos, while keeping his heat signature hidden from him.
Serif went room to room of Daphnes’s ship, pocketing everything that caught his eye. Then Serif opened the fridge and took all the food Daphnes had on the ship. But when Serif tried to exit the ship afterward, he started hearing a recording Daphnes had made 20 years ago. Describing how long Daphnes has been on this voyage for over 5 decades. “Dang,” he said. “Cool story bro.”
(Spear of Justice) 3!!! 2!!! 1, GO!!!!! Suddenly he heard a crash, as the lord of Legend of Zelda assailed him, and threw him at a wall
“Maybe you should have known that taking stuff that isn’t yours is called stealing, right?” Daphnes said, before charging at Serif and striking him with the Lord Sword, only to miss completely due to Serif dodging.
“And you should know you don’t simply hit the lord of Undertale,” Serif said while unleashing a barrage from his AK-47.
“Time Alter: Double Accel!” Daphnes said before time slowed around him and he kept moving out of the way of the shots.
“Well then, TRAP MODE!” Serif said, before shooting three purple lines at Daphnes. When these hit, they turned Daphnes purple. He found that he could only move between those lines. Immediately Daphnes activated the Stasis∞+ Rune on Serif, which would have froze him in place had he not dodged, and used Magnesis on Serif’s AK-47, disarming him.
“No worries. Shocker Breaker, Ready!” Serif said.
“If that’s so, You don’t announce your attack until you have already used it!” Daphnes said, before using Nayru’s Love and Daruk’s Protection. Suddenly he was hit by a bunch of fireballs that punched through his protection.
“I LIED! I readied pyrohelix II,” Serif said gleefully.
Daphnes started to get perceptive. None of the geeks he knew would dream of using such an underhanded tactic like that. Immediately Daphnes used Stasis∞+ on Serif again and shot an Ancient Arrow at him. Serif dodged and somersaulted under the arrow and in range of a Chaos Saber. Immediately, Zeldalord grabbed onto the Lord Sword and clashed it against Serif’s Chaos Saber. Serif tried again- many more times. Daphnes parried each strike but found all of his own parried in response.
“You’re good,” Serif said.
“You expected otherwise?” Daphnes knew he had to distract him, so he decided to bring out a Fishing Rod.
“Too slow, karate kid,” Serif said, running into the hangar turbolift to the bridge of the Heart of Gold.
“Get back here, Coward!” Daphnes shouted angrily.
In the bridge, Serif called Eddie. “What is it, chief?” the A.I said.
“Jettison the room with the thing we f-” Serif was cut off by Daphnes pounding his head onto the window-side table in the Heart of Gold bridge.
”It seems that this is Likely another A.I., but one who was not based on anyone like The Alpha was based on Doctor Leonard Church,” Delta said while connecting to the Heart of Gold to analyze Eddie.
“Hey, hands off!” Eddie yelled.
“It is only a simple matter of analysis, I am only seeing how an A.I. like yourself works,” Delta said.
“Serif, HELP!” Eddie shouted.
“Hey anger sword, check your 6!” Serif yelled, as his skull-less skeleton pried Daphnes off of him and reattached his skull.
“EDDIE! WHATEVER THIS NEW A.I. TRIES TO DO, STOP HIM!!! Wait, what’s that?” Serif yelled, as suddenly a blue arrow of light came flying at Serif, but he dodged and it hit Daphnes instead, sending him flying into a bookshelf.
(Boss Batle 1 Kid Icarus Uprising) “Finally, I can go back to making a living,” Serif said.
“Can’t let you do that, I’m afraid,” all on the bridge heard s suddenly an angel came flying in. “Bounty hunters, you are hereby detained,” he said.
“New Target incoming. Activating Protocol #003, Healing Unit.” Delta warned Serif, Daphnes, and Eddie, and activating a Healing aura around Daphnes.
3!!! 2!!! 1, GO!!!!
Immediately, Daphnes burst through and punched this angel in the chest.
“Ugh, you’re a bit tougher than the average merc, huh. No matter. Not a problem for me when I’m on Palutena’s orders,” Pit said.
“SHUT UP ALREADY!” Daphnes said, before throwing Pit into a wall using PSI Fire Ω
“The fight is on!” Pit shouted, before closing into melee with Daphnes using his bow, split into two swords. Immediately, Daphnes brought out the Lord Sword and was clashing both against Pit’s blades, blow for blow. Until he sent Pit flying backward with a Warlock Punch. Pit then fired arrow after arrow, forcing Daphnes to focus on avoiding. Then Serif joined the fray by retaliating with spears.
“Time Alter: Triple Accel!” Daphnes said, before being right behind Pit with an Ancient Arrow ready to fire directly at him. Serif suddenly appeared behind him with a gaster blaster, but rather than firing it directly at Daphnes, wrapped the gaster blaster around the arrow to make a combo attack. The result had Pit on the wall, trophied.
GAME!!!!!!
“You’re pretty good,” Serif said. “And that combo was amazing! We should do more stuff like that.”
“It’d be interesting to see that used again,” Daphnes said, before looking at Pit.
(Confession) “No more! I concede! how could I have lost? I was on Lady Palutena’s orders!” Pit wondered aloud. Then Daphnes realized something: the skeleton may have just been a really strange geek of Undertale, but this was THE ACTUAL PIT, the one that he had played a video game about, and he was here, in the flesh, talking to him! Daphnes was overcome with awe.
“Your biggest mistake was assuming I was a Mercenary, like the Stalfos,” Daphnes said to Pit when he got ahold of himself while pointing to Serif.
“Bruh, I’m not a Stalin, do I look Russian?!” Serif said.
“Stalfos: The Undead of Hyrule. Creating a form unbalance between this world and the afterlife,” Daphnes explained.
“Dude, I’m from Undertale!” Serif shouted.
“If I may get a word in edgeways,” Eddie said. “There are, being specific here, Hundreds if not thousands of spaceships with Giga cannons headed right for us with hostile intent, and they seem to be after someone.”
(Vs Ridley Brawl) 3!!! 2!!! 1, GO!!!!!! Immediately Delta was navigating through the attack drones and giving Eddie directions on how to speed past them, but more attack drones joined the fray. The ship took quite a beating from attack drones using drill-like weapons in swooping maneuvers. In the distance, Daphnes saw a massive bubble of hexagons that the drones were flying out of. The Heart of Gold was flying right toward it!
Elsewhere, in the drone control center, Geek Police Officers flew the attack drones like they were playing a video game, all the while reporting to their leaders the status of battle.
“They’re headed right for us,” an officer said.
“Then let’s hit them with everything we’ve got,” Professor Pig, leader of the Geek Police and an ace minecraft player, said.
In the bridge of the Heart of Gold, all was chaos.
“We can’t go through much more of this,” Eddie reported.
“WHY DO THESE PEOPLE HATE YOU SO MUCH, DAPHNES! AREN’T THEY YOUR KIND?!” Pit screamed.
“LONG STORY! I’LL TELL IT LATER, BUT RIGHT NOW, WE’RE FIGHTING THEM OFF!” Daphnes shouted.
“Hey, something just occurred to me,” Serif said. “If the drones are coming from that bubble,” Serif continued, pointing at Daphnes’s infiniverse, “Shouldn’t we be flying away from it, not toward it?”
“Right. FLY AWAY!!!” Eddie said, as the ship reversed itself and went full steam ahead away from Daphnes’s Infiniverse.
“They’re flying away.” Another officer said. “Should we let them?”
“You crazy?!” Professor Pig said. “So he can make those people and others lose their lives as he did to the Lord of Marvel? So he can cause untold death and destruction to that infiniverse? So he can decimate their worlds by killing everyone that makes him mad, which would be anyone who does anything?!?!?! I think not. Keep fighting, this time to capture.”
“They’re still fighting!” Pit said. “What is their problem?”
“I think we should fire straight at the drones, They’re not going to take any of us alive!” Daphnes said, before firing an ancient arrow at one of them by jumping out, and destroying one of the drones, only to be shot in the arm.
“Yeah, that ain’t gonna work. The cannons are through the doors, ladder in the middle,” Serif said.
“Great. We’ll get down there,” Pit said. “C’mon, Daphnes,”
“Right, to the cannons!” Daphnes said before both he and Pit went to the cannons.
“Dorsal or ventral?” Pit asked.
“You take dorsal, I’ll take ventral!” Daphnes said.
“Sounds good,” Pit said, climbing up the ladder as Daphnes climbed down. Once they were in the cannon seats, Serif’s voice came on the P.A.
“The controls are pretty straightforward. Swivel your chair to move, triggers to shoot. Once you see a triangle in between your two grids on the display, they’re in your line of fire,” Serif said.
“Good to hear, I’ll make sure to aim for the ones hitting below, the ones hitting from above are your job, Pit!” Daphnes said, before firing at multiple drones.
Ha! I got him! I got one!” Pit shouted from above.
“Great, kid. Only too many more to go!” Serif replied.
“Gotta keep shootin’,” Pit said, as he destroyed many drones, but one got a hit. “Wait a minute, this slider… It says different kinds of ammo!” Pit said to Daphnes. “Scatter shells, precision missiles… Whoa! he’s got SMART BOMBS?!?!”
“Right, Switching to Smart Bombs!” Daphnes said, before shooting a Smart Bomb at a quarter of the fleet and wiping them out. “I’m getting the hang of this” Pit said, destroying a combo of 68 drones with automatic fire.
In the control center, consoles were deactivating like a blackout. Within a one-minute span, all who was left was 20 drones.
“Dang it! We’re losing too many Drones!” one officer said.
“We’re already at 15!” another said. “No wait, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1! The only one left is Marv!” All the officers gathered around Marv’s console. “Cmon, Marv! You can do this! Remember! You want to win that arguement!” an officer said. Daphnes turned his cannon, pulled the trigger, looked at the digital representation of Marv’s face, and Marv’s screen went dead.
“NOOOOOOO,” The officers said in unison.
“Alright, that’s it!” Professor Pig said. “Move over! Here I come, DAPHNES!!”
“ALRIGHT! WE GOT THE LAST ONE!” Pit said happily.
“Don’t be too sure until they unveil their trump card. I know they have one last drone up their sleeves, and it’s one that's not a drone but a piloted ship, and they’re not using yet because Pig hasn’t told them about it…" Daphnes looked out his viewport in worry. "And right on cue, it’s coming.”
(His Highness's Theme) “Wait, what’s that? Oh crap,” Pit said as a much bigger ship flew out of the bubble, this one piloted by Professor Pig himself.
“You are NOT going to hurt more innocent people!” Professor Pig screamed.
“This is different from what he usually does… FIRING ONE OF THE SMART BOMBS!” Daphnes said, before firing a Smart Bomb at Professor Pig’s ship. To everyone’s surprise, it had no effect.
“Like my upgrades, Daphnes? That’s right, I upgraded my ship since it beat you and Nashi who, by the way, we locked up too,” Professor Pig gloated.
“You monster… GIVE HER BACK OR I WILL TAKE YOU DOWN HEAD ON!!” Daphnes shouted at Professor Pig.
“Why do I have no clue what any of what you just said means?” Pit asked.
“Nashi’s my girlfriend, She gets her power as though she's the daughter of Natsu Dragneel and half demon.” Daphnes said. The two cannons fired and fired and fired, but their attacks had no effect. Suddenly Daphnes saw something- a bright, glowing object in the distance.
“Serif! The opening!” Pit shouted.
“I see it. Full steam ahead!” Serif shouted.
“I don’t think so,” Professor Pig said from the cockpit of his ship. Suddenly the whole ship shook.
“WHY AREN’T WE MOVING!?!?!?!” Serif yelled.
“Tractor Beam! He’s pulling us in!” Pit said.
“Not just a tractor beam,” Serif said. “But one that pulls us into a cannon!”
“Recognize my new toys, I see. You’re MINE!” Professor Pig said as he primed the cannon the tractor beam was dragging them into.
“Serif, do we have anything that has enough force to destroy his shields and his ship?!” Daphnes yelled, scared for himself and his colleagues.
“Nada. Our strongest stuff failed to even make a dent,” Serif said.
“Well, it was nice knowing ya,” Eddie said, as the Heart of Gold was dragged closer and closer to the barrel of Professor Pig’s cannon, whilst both cannons were ready to fire directly at them.
(SSBM Menu Ver 2 SSB4) “Wait a minute, I have an idea! Eddie, open the airlock to the hangar that the ship we found you in!” Serif said, referring to Daphnes.
“No, bad Idea. It still will go through infiniverse walls!” Daphnes yelled.
“Well then GREAT IDEA! It’s probably strong enough to jam the motors of that cannon!” Pit said hopefully.
“I still need it!” Daphnes said desperately.
“Probability of success is near 5%. Infinite Improbability Drive changes probability to 100%.” Delta said, before Eddie started to open the hangar bay. Daphnes saw the ship fly out the doors and into the cannon.
“IF YOU DO THAT YOU’RE GOING TO BURN MY CHANCE OF SUCCESS TO GET BACK!” he screamed. Too late- the ship was ground to scrap in the cannon’s motors, but when that happened, too much duress was placed on the ship’s cannon, rendering it unable to fire. It also placed duress on the hull of the ship, causing weak points to appear. It also caused the tractor beam to deactivate.
“Now! Let’s escape!” Daphnes shouted.
“Escape nuthin’. We’re winnin’ this!” Serif said.
“It’ll take no damage like it did last time! We’re making a tactical retreat!” Daphnes said.
“It’s got weak points this time! We can do this, it’s just gonna take some fancy flyin’. Ventral cannon, you ready?” Serif said.
“Don’t do it! We need to retreat NOW!” Daphnes barked.
“Wait, the main cannon’s GONE! And the hull’s starting to tear! I’m in!” Pit said, seeing a ray of hope.
“Great, we’ll just have to do it upside down,” Serif said.
“Even when this ship falls, I’ll still take you down, one by one, until your all nothing but scrap metal!” Professor Pig shouted.
“Improb drive, ENGAGE! Upthrust!” Serif yelled.
“Engaging Infinite Improbability Drive. Allowing forward thrust,” Delta reported. The Heart of Gold flew above the other ship and, upside down, blasted down all of the weak points in the ship’s hull, except one near the hangar.
(LOG-O-TYPE) Finally, Pit shot a smart bomb in the center of the weak points. The resulting explosion left Pig’s ship with just the cockpit. That’s when Daphnes realized that this wasn’t like the times in his Infiniverse. This time there was no Pig beating him or Captain Wilson stopping him- no, this time, once and for all, he had beaten Professor Pig. Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule I, along with Serif the Skeleton and Pit of Skyworld had WON.
GAME!!!!!
Then the Minecraft lord hailed them. “You wanna talk about this?” he asked desperately.
(Quiet Water) Pit escorted Professor Pig into a meeting room designed for the occasion by the improb drive. Professor Pig sat in one of two plush armchairs by a roaring fire, and Serif sat facing him in the other.
“Talk,” Serif said.
“Do I need to? You’re the one I want in custody, Daphnes. After killing Marvel Lord, blowing up a planet, etc, etc! AND YOU DIDN’T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT FOR A SINGLE SECOND!” Pig ranted.
“Crash Bandicoot Woah! Slow down, Turbo! I’m the captain of this ship, and I’m clueless. All I know is the kid’s tough, and he’s a good gunner. Start at the start,” Serif said.
“Daphnes originally started off simple and unnecessarily over the top. Eventually, he hit me on the head a lot, and decided to torture everybody by hitting them! And worst of all, when Potter Lord died, HE HAD SOMEONE JUST DECIDE TO BLACKMAIL A LOT OF LORDS INTO VOTING FOR HIM, ONLY TO CALL IT OFF THE NEXT DAY AFTER THE VOTES WERE IN HIS FAVOR!” Professor Pig said.
“And yet, what you said is wrong. I wasn’t wanting to gain votes that way… Someone else voted for me and blackmailed them so that way you would lose and be banished. I may not have been wanting to be banished, but at least I never wanted to blackmail anyone!” Daphnes responded.
“STAY OUT OF THIS!” Professor Pig snapped at Daphnes.
“So you got a guy that hits things and blackmails people?” Serif asked.
“Pretty much, yeah. Now I ask you if you really want someone like that on your ship and in your world, and DON’T let Daphnes OR THE ANGEL answer,” Professor Pig said.
“What have you got against me?” Pit said.
“One of the main things Daphnes hurt people for was sharing mildly inappropriate memes and jokes. WE WERE JUST HAVING A GOOD TIME! And here he comes, being a righteous jerk and yelling at us!” Professor Pig explained.
“Not cool, man. Not cool,” Daphnes said.
“I’m with Daphnes. Not cool, Pig” Pit said.
“Now skeleton, do you really want this dangerous criminal in your world?” Professor Pig said.
“Can I say something crazy?” Serif said, with a subtle smirk on his face. “HECK YEAH!!!”
(SSBB Classic Clear) “What?! I thought you were going to throw me off and abandon me out there after what you heard of me!” Daphnes said, shocked and taken aback by Serif’s choice.
“Nah, fam. I like ya too much,” Serif said.
“I just… I can’t…. Thank you so much,” Daphnes said, before hugging Serif, with tears in his eyes.
“Fine. When all your bones get broken because you made an Illuminati joke, it’s your fault!” Professor Pig said, before vanishing.
“We should probably head home too,” Serif said, then flew the ship into the shining aperture, heading back to the infiniverse of the GotRT. A world of combined fandoms. A world of one planet. A world that is known as Fangea.
(SSBB Main Theme (Audi Famam Illius)) Immediately Daphnes felt a change inside him. It felt like… a power was coming to the surface. It burned through Daphnes’s insides, coursing through his veins, burning away the restrictions placed on him by the Geek Police. It changed his outward appearance as well, burning away his prison clothes and creating a new outfit on his body. Daphnes now had a silver pauldron with the Hylian Crest on it, a belt for his Sheikah Slate, more Adventure Pouch Slots, platinum gauntlets, chainmail, A new green tunic designed off of the other Heroes of Hyrule combined, and a new cape design, with the Hylian Crest on the back. His sword, one he forged long ago, had also been changed to fit his new design and looked exactly like the True Master Sword the Hero of the Sky wielded. His Shield also was re-designed to have a more defensive look, and had a new feature, Absorbing attacks, and adding them to his own. Then a great flash of light burst out from inside him, and he came to himself back in the Heart of Gold, wearing his new outfit.
(Mysterious Hyrule Warriors) Derpy saved the footage of this whole happening to her computer. She then re-watched the footage as the prisoner was turned into a green-clad hero. Wait, green-clad hero? Hadn’t Lord Tirek prophesied about a green-clad hero coming after the lord of Undertale and before a great Darkness? And wasn’t this Darkness unleashed by a ritual? And weren’t there rumors about people collecting the things needed to accomplish said ritual?
“There’s too much correlation to ignore," Derpy thought. "Something’s coming, or my name’s not Derpy Hooves. Something big. Something… evil...”
(sans) The Heart of Gold flew through the combined multiverse of the fandoms, the hole in the multiversal wall safely sealed behind them. Those on board were in ecstasy. “I can’t believe we actually beat those guys!” Pit said.
“Phew, We’re lucky to have lived,” Daphnes said.
“Yeah, you’re pretty good,” Pit said. “AAARGH! WHAT AM I THINKING! I HAVE TO GIVE YOU TO LADY PALUTENA! I SHOULDN’T BE MAKING FRIENDS WITH YOU!”
“Relax, You don’t have to listen to Palutena all the time. Try going by what you think is right,” Daphnes said.
“Anyway, I gotta do something. Eddie, call Princess Luna,” Serif said.
“Got it,” Eddie said, then contacted Princess Luna, bringing her face onto the screen.
“Alright, Serif, what’s going on now? Have you found any evidence connecting the rumors to -...Who’s that?” She said.
“Salutations, I’m Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule I, or Zeldalord, whichever you prefer,” Daphnes said.
“Wait a minute, sword, shield, green robes, you’re the green knight!” Luna exclaimed.
“Green Knight? Well, I know I’ve got a sword and shield, and a green tunic, but I don’t think I’m this legendary Green Knight.” Daphnes said, but there was no convincing Luna.
“This is too much evidence to ignore. Now I know the rumors are true. We need to start our offensive,” she said.
“You can. Without me,” Serif said.
“I’ll raise your pay,” Luna said.
“Alright, I’m in,” Serif said.
“Great, meet at these coordinates.” Luna sent coordinates to Eddie.
“Are there any details of this story that your missing? Because the sword I have is my creation. Simply put, I don’t know if I fully fit the description,” Daphnes said, hesitantly trying to avoid a fight, due to him being in no condition to fight a war.
Then Pit heard Palutena’s voice in his mind. “Pit, I need to talk, do have a minute?” she said.
“GAHHHH! Hi, m’lady,” Pit thought guiltily.
“You don’t need your guilt. I saw everything, and I’m changing the mission," Palutena thought back.
“Huh? What do you mean by that?” Pit thought.
“I mean I now believe the rumors, and think we should help. Work with your companions, and obey Luna’s orders as though they were mine. Looks like I need to apologize to Viridi,” Palutena thought.
“Really? Thanks, m’lady," Pit said happily.
“Go now, you have work to do.” Palutena closed the connection.
“So, where are we going?” Pit asked peppily.
“DBZ fandom… Can we even go here? I know he doesn’t like uninvited guests,” Serif asked Luna.
“Beerus doesn’t, but Whis is letting us in, he also believes the rumors,” she responded.
“Rumors? What rumors are you talking about?” Daphnes asked grumpily.
“I feel like I need to tell you in person, so hurry.” Luna then got off Discord and Serif flew to the dwelling of Beerus, god of destruction.
“Reaching our destination in 5 minutes,” Delta said before Daphnes looked at Delta. “Delta, back in the Sheikah Slate, please.” Daphnes connected the Shiekah Slate to the Heart of Gold's main console.
“Acknowledged.” Delta went back into the Sheikah Slate+.
(Beerus's Teatime) “Lord Beerus, I’m assuming you didn’t want anyone to disturb your nap in the middle of the end of Fangea as we know it, correct?” The 7th Universe’s Assigned Angel, Whis, asked the God of Destruction of the 7th Universe, Beerus.
“Whis, even you must know those are mere rumors. They may be spreading across the Infiniverse, but they are just that, rumors,” Beerus replied to Whis’s Question.
“Hope I’m not interrupting on anything too Important, Lord Beerus, but may I ask, what rumors are you talking about?” someone said behind Whis.
“Oh! Hello, Luna’s guests. Please go wait in the other room. We’ll be with you shortly,” Whis responded, before ushering the party into a waiting room and returning to Beerus. “You do authorize our little meeting, however. Correct, my lord?”
“I think it’s hilarious! If it stays funny then of course!” “Thank you, my lord.” Whis said, then left the room.
(Adventure Map Brawl) He went to the waiting room, where Daphnes, Serif, Pit, Luna, and Viridi were gathered.
“Okay, would somebody please tell me what is going on!?” Daphnes screamed.
“Yes, now that you are all here,” Luna said.
“I’ve spoken of these rumors, and you all probably know what I’m talking about, except one, so for the sake of the one, I’ll explain.” Luna was interrupted by more people entering the room-specifically Vegeta, Krillin, Piccolo, Gohan, Goku, Android 18, Master Roshi, Android 17, Tien, Yamcha, Goten, and Trunks, as well as Kakashi, Professor Ozpin, and Shulk.
"I had told you I went recruiting after Beerus's refusal, yes?" Whis said.
“Anyone else going to show up out of the blue?” Daphnes asked Luna, a little angered that the meeting was getting interrupted every five seconds.
“As Luna has told you earlier, there’s something Known as the Green Knight, who is said to re-seal the Entity of Shadows, and you fit the bill perfectly,” Viridi said.
“There’s a detail I forgot. The Green-clad Knight would carry the mark of both Hyrule and Lorule. Not only would he be much stronger, but he would also show light through this darkness,” Luna said, before looking at Daphnes’s hands. “And it seems that you fit this regiment just fine, Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule I.”
(F Zero Car Select) Suddenly a blue racing hover-car zoomed in and out jumped Captain Falcon. “Sorry I’m late, the traffic regulations out here are dumb,” Falcon said before he was about to get into Krillin’s seat. “You, midget! Move!" he said
“Dude what the heck! I have every right to sit here!” Krillin responded.
“Oh really? FALCON PUNCH!” Captain Falcon punched Krillin so hard he hit the ceiling of the room, and then Krillin hit the floor.
Krillin Owned Count: +2
“KRILLIN! You’ll pay for that, peanut brain!” Goku yelled, before turning into a Super Saiyan.
“Peanut Brain?! Oh, now you’re in for it!” Captain Falcon yelled back.
(Super Saiyan Blue Goku vs Jiren) 3!!! 2!!! 1, GO!!!!!!
Captain Falcon started by landing a falcon kick on Goku. Immediately Goku used the Afterimage to avoid the Falcon Kick, and use the Dragon Throw on Captain Falcon into a wall. Captain Falcon came back out, and Goku was starting to blast Captain Falcon with Energy Blasts. Captain Falcon fought through these and landed a series of regular attacks culminating in a Raptor Boost. Goku turned into Super Saiyan God and charged directly at Captain Falcon, and used Dragon Fist, who responded with a Falcon Dive. Whis and Luna facepalmed in unison, and Whis immobilized the two fighters and conjured another chair, then sat Captain Falcon, Krillin, and Goku down. “Now please, if you want to be part of this, behave yourselves,” he said.
(Adventure map Brawl) “Anyway, as I was saying, we’ve seen the green knight, so that means the rest of Tirek’s prophecy is in danger of fulfillment as well,” Luna said.
“If that is the case,” Shulk said. “Then who is bringing it about and how much of it have they done?”
“What even is this Prophecy?” Daphnes said, confused.
“Let me back up a bit. Two months ago, Lord Tirek escaped Tartarus again and no, we don’t know how. But the strangest thing was that he didn’t try to take over or anything like that. He just took off as fast as his legs would carry him to the fandom gate. We caught him before he could leave My Little Pony, but when we brought him back to Canterlot, he- actually, how about I show you. Whis, can you get me a Pensieve?” Luna said. Whis summoned one with his staff and placed it on the table. Luna then used the pensieve to create a window into her memory on the table. The others gathered around to watch as a scene unfolded on the table. More specifically, the scene Luna was remembering back in chapter 2.
(Hyrule Warriors Mysterious) “That was WHACK,” Serif said after the vision ended.
“So… What’s the reason that this Darkness is returning?” Daphnes asked.
“I wondered that myself, so Twilight and I researched what he could mean. I came across a book in Twilight’s library,” Luna said, then brought an image of a book on the table. It was not a pleasant book, with various dark symbols on it.
“I can practically feel the evil coming off of it even from a memory projection,” Kakashi said.
“Then we should keep this prophecy from happening. It’s going to be difficult, but we can do this. I know we can,” Daphnes said.
“I agree," Luna said. "Which is why I had Twilight copy the key points of the book without transferring the dark magic. Then I destroyed the book. But what we got was this.” Luna changed the table display to show various points of interest. “Apparently, for the event Tirek prophesied about to come to pass, a certain ritual needs to be performed. It’s really difficult and unspeakably evil, so I didn’t think anyone would actually try it. I actually thought it was Tirek trying to cause unrest in the sun court. Until about two months ago, when Undertale actually got a Geek Lord. Serif, you are the first Geek Lord in 1000000 years.”
“Woah! That’s a long time! No wonder I had to train myself,” Serif said.
“Yes, anyway, when that happened I started hearing rumors from Tartarus that someone was actually trying to do it. I had Ozpin check on the first piece of the ritual, a black stone obelisk known as the Infernal Obsidian,” Luna said.
“To my great alarm, it was not at its place of holding. The only logical conclusion is that someone had taken it. Someone who knew of its location, and surpassed the defenses guarding it,” Ozpin said.
“Uhh… yeah… I can tell you why. For my first job ever I kinda stole it and gave it to this weird guy who in return rewrote time to make my girlfriend, Juniper Montage, super famous by preventing her uncle from replacing her with Chestnut Magnifico in the Daring Do movie,” Serif said.
“YOU WHAT?! Do you realize that holding that type of information from us, when we could’ve used it minutes ago, is Wrong?!?” Daphnes yelled.
“I’m sorry it’s just, I didn’t know what it would do, or I never would have done it,” Serif apologized.
“Well, it’s in the past now,” Android 18 said.
“So we know that part’s true, so let’s focus on the next part," Luna continued. "For the ritual to work, you need the blood of four creatures of light and four creatures of shadow. In the past month, four changelings and four unicorns have gone missing. Celestia blames a misadventure through the Flame Geyser Swamp, but she hasn’t seen this.” Luna brought a memory to the surface. “I got this from a rather traumatized Chimera, the only witness,” Luna said as the memory played out.
(Shadow Temple Ocarina of Time) “The Flame Geyser Swamp is really creepy,” The orange unicorn called Ivory Fire said.
“You can say that again,” The brown unicorn called Sandy Shadow said.
“You should be in your element, Pupa. This swamp’s full of creatures of chaos. Maybe you can make some friends,” The blue, strong-voiced unicorn called Thunder Buster playfully teased.
“Don’t joke about that please,” the young, small-voiced changeling called Pupa said. “I’m trying very hard to put my past behind me.” This party, along with others, were crossing through the Flame Geyser Swamp- the chimera’s territory. She hid in the bushes, imagining the splendid taste of fresh unicorn. She would let the changelings go- she didn’t care for how they tasted. As the party of 8- 4 unicorns- Ivory Fire, Thunder Buster, Master Metal, and Sandy Shadow, according to the talk between the group- and 4 changelings- Domen, Pupa, Terpil, and Scuttle, again, according to what had been said between them-neared the chimera’s position, she felt something unsettling- a sort of shift under the earth. Suddenly she felt afraid- so afraid her hunter’s senses were impaired.
“Hey, do you feel that?” Domen said as the shift seemed to go towards them.
Then Master Metal spoke up. “Yeah, I do. Good thing our back is covered- by me. I will keep us SA-” as suddenly said unicorn was dragged into another bunch of bushes by a pair of vines. Then a bloodcurdling scream issued from those bushes. The party was genuinely panicked now, as they took off full sprint away even as Scuttle was dragged away in a similar fashion. But then the group was cut off, as vines from ahead lanced through Pupa and Ivory Fire. Almost faster than the chimera could comprehend, the vines stabbed everyone through the heart. The last one standing was Thunder Buster, who got wrapped in vines. Then the chimera saw only the silhouettes, but saw, on the top of the vine bundle, a flower, almost grinning with sadistic glee, tearing off the unicorn’s head.
Then the chimera heard the flower speak. “Remain silent,” it said. “Or you’re next.” “Why?” the chimera said. “Why would you be so evil?”
“Don’t you get it?” The flower said back. “In this world, it’s kill or be killed!!!”
“This is… awful. Why would anyone do this to innocent ponies?” Daphnes asked.
“Someone by the name of Flowey, who was originally that of the son of both Asgore and Toriel, Asriel. Someone we should not be taking lightly,” Ozpin said to Daphnes looking at his blade, alongside his shield.
“I’ve heard of him. He’s from the fandom I supposedly am supposed to run,” Serif said.
“So we know the identities of one of the suspects,” Luna said. “And we know that they are indeed trying to complete the dark ritual.”
“Wait, I don’t get it,” Yamcha said. “If all they have to do is drench a rock in blood, why aren’t we dead where we stand?”
“They don’t drench the infernal obsidian in the blood,” Luna said, impatient. “They draw a certain symbol with the blood around the obelisk. This is a very powerful, evil, and very dangerous ritual that requires the symbol to be exact, at the penalty of devastating consequences. This works in our favor because to my knowledge, the only exact instructions for the ritual were in that book I destroyed. But for all I know, if these people, including Flowey, know of the ingredients to the ritual, they might have a copy of the instructions that I don’t know about. Also, for the ritual to be accomplished one needs a large amount of dark power. I only know of one thing that could hold the amount they need, and it was destroyed about a year ago. But again, they might have found something I don’t know about. These are both uncertainties that we can’t depend on.”
“Is there anything we can?” Tien asked, impatient.
“Yes, actually,” Luna said. “The final piece of the ritual is a collection of dark artifacts known as the Lightless Candles.”
“I’m guessing those are candles that don’t make light even when lit?” Captain Falcon asked, interrupting.
“You show the intelligence of a boulder, but yes, you are correct,” Ozpin said.
(Core Ace Attorney) “If that’s so, then what’s a good idea to keep it out of enemy hands, aside from destroying them or splitting them up?” Daphnes asked.
“We should focus first on obtaining the candles. I found a book in Celestia’s library detailing where the candles were hidden.” Luna pulled out an ancient book, being very careful with it. “It says here that the candles are hidden at Doctor Who, God of War, Legend of Zelda, Skyrim, Castlevania, BLEACH, Touhou, and My Little Pony.”
Captain Falcon burst out laughing. “That book is a joke! You’d be better to search Twitter for facts! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!”
“He’s right, you know,” Beerus said from his bed.
”My lord, I thought you didn’t care,” Whis responded.
“I don’t,” Beerus said. “But I think if you’re going to do a wild goose chase, you should probably know which farmer to call.”
“Says the god of destruction afraid of a mere mortal, who mastered Ultra Instinct in 44 Minutes,” Ozpin said, before smirking and grabbing his cane, before spinning it, and drinking hot chocolate from his coffee mug.
“Everyone brace yourselves. Ozpin’s about to die,” Kakashi said.
“Whis, next time, get the cat out of the room, because I need to stab something and it’s got a red helmet, blue jacket, and a shiny car,” Daphnes said, before raising up his sword up to Captain Falcon’s Neck. “Either I stab his neck, or he shows some respect. Either way, I win in this scenario, Falcon!”
“Wait! Falcon's idea's worth a shot. We're short on leads anyway, so...” Shulk wondered aloud. “Everybody, search every social media outlet you have for clues.”
Everyone pulled their phones out (or at least, everyone who had phones) and looked and looked. Finally, Android 17 found something. “Got it! I found some coordinates,” he said.
“Well then lets WUBBA LUBBA DUB DUB!” Serif said.
“Delta, do we have an accurate route there?” Daphnes asked.
“Affirmative, we will be there within seven minutes.” the A.I. fragment responded. “Race ya” Captain Falcon said, before driving his car into the Falcon Flyer and flying off. Daphnes, Serif, Piccolo, Kakashi, Shulk, Vegeta, Goku, and Krillin followed in the Heart of Gold.
“I am here. Please, tell me what it is you need to speak of.”
“Well… I kinda went through the impassable wall the other day. Picked up a guy who supposedly had hurt a lot of people. I like the kid, but the way he treated CF… Did I screw up in taking him?”
“Only time will tell. I can see into the future, but the events that are about to transpire are hidden from me. A very large event is at hand, and I believe the swordsman and yourself are key players. In any case, you cannot put him back now, the wall has sealed. So make the best of the situation.”
(TF2 Main Theme Rock Cover) Immediately the Red Heavy kept firing Natascha at the Blu Scout, who kept avoiding gunfire, and red Spy stabbed Blu Sniper in the Back “You got Blood on my Suit, Blue,” Spy said, while Red Sniper headshot BLU Medic while he was healing the BLU Heavy, and Blu Heavy got burned alive by Red Pyro.
“Boom. Headshot,” Sniper said, while Red Scout shot Blu Engineer in the back and destroyed the Sentry, Dispenser, and Teleporters. Immediately Red Engie killed Blu spy just by spotting him with a small tracker he gave to Red Spy to place on the Blu Spy, and when the two passed each other, Spy shot him with the tracker.
“Sorry, but I thought this entire plan through. Medic’s gonna end your entire team with the Heavy,” Engineer said to Blue Spy’s bullet-riddled body. Red Medic immediately had Heavy Ubercharged, and they were plowing through Blu Soldier, Blu Scout, Blu Pyro, and Blu Demoman.
“AHAHAHAHA! I AM BULLETPROOF!!!!” Heavy shouted, mowing through them. Scout grabbed the Blu team’s Intelligence and brought it back to their base, winning the match permanently.
“YEAH! NOW DAT’S WHAT I’M TALKIN’ ABOUT!” Scout shouted, super happy while doing the Kazotsky kick back to the red base. “Least that’s said and done with, now to set up those crates back at Base,” Engie said.
“Well we should be Lucky that Spy was able to find the Blu Spy, and also, we should be more careful when getting those crates,” Medic said.
“да, we should get back and- who is Green team?” Heavy said, noticing the new logo.
(TF2 The Calm) “I WON!!!!!!” Captain Falcon yelled at the other end of the map, while Daphnes was standing there right behind him.
“By 2 seconds!” Serif protested.
“No gloating, got it? We’ve got a job to do,” Daphnes reminded the group.
“There’s a lot of ground to cover. It would be best if we split up, and spread the area,” Piccolo advised.
“Agreed. Serif, you go underneath and try to enter the base from there, I’ll get in through the top, half of us check the blue base, half will head into the red base,” Daphnes said.
“I go blue,” Serif said.
“Blue,” Vegeta said.
“Red” Goku said.
“Blue,” Captain Falcon said.
“Red,” Krillin said.
“Red,” Kakashi said.
“Blue,” Shulk said.
“Red,” Piccolo said.
“Then I’ll take Red Base as well.” Daphnes said, before flying up to the top of the Red Base.
“Why do we always have to split up when it comes to this stuff?” Krillin complained as he went through the red side of the 2fort map. He was on the first floor, walking past a wagon wheel when he saw, across an open area, a bunch of oil drums behind a fence. As he crossed the courtyard, he heard someone move. “Uhhh… Goku if you’re trying to spook me cut it out!” he shouted.
“This American Boot just kicked your rear end back to where you were before!” Soldier yelled at the top of his voice, before Krillin got blasted by a rocket, and flew out of the map, causing a giant crash far away.
Elsewhere, Sniper was ready to fire his rifle while waiting for his target. Nearby, Kakashi searched crates in another area of the red base, close to the intelligence room. “Another crate, more meaningless junk,” Kakashi said disappointed. Then he heard a click. “Oh no you don’t, whoever you are. Art of the CHIDORI!” he said, sending a burst of lightning through all metal surface in the room.
“HOLY-! BLOODY BOGAN!” Sniper said before he threw a bottle of Jarate at Kakashi. Kakashi improvised with a wire string to throw it back at the sender. Then he was on the move, keeping Sniper running with a barrage of Kunai knives. While Sniper was keeping down, he brought out his Sniper Rifle and took a few shots, clipping Kakashi on the shoulder.
“I don’t have time for this,” Kakashi said, speeding to another part of 2Fort.
(TF2 The Calm) Elsewhere, the Medic repaired the Heavy’s wounds while telling him a story. “And that is how I lost my medical license,” he said. Then Heavy laughed.
“We have to get them out of this room, or we’ll never get anything done,” Piccolo said from his hiding place.
“Right. You take the unlicensed doctor, I take the big guy,” Goku said.
(TF2 Heavy Theme) Goku jumped out and used Fist Shockwave to send Heavy reeling. Immediately Heavy tried to punch him, but Goku dodged. Then Goku used the Dragon fist to strike Heavy where he least expected it: his gut. This sent Heavy to the ground- and made him VERY angry. He grabbed the closest weapon he had- the shotgun- and hit Goku with a round, only to discover that he had hit an Afterimage. Goku had left the afterimage so he could investigate some boxes in the room. Immediately heavy grabbed onto Sasha and fired it at Goku, immediately Goku grabbed onto the bullets and dropped them. Then he fired a kamehameha that sent Heavy flying through the ceiling.
(TF2 MEDIC!!!) Piccolo approached Medic with a ki blast ready. “Unlike my friend, I am going to give you a chance to let us carry out our business in peace,” he said.
“Oh, you’ve got some nerve to demand peace from me. ARCHIMEDES! NOW!” Medic said, as a white dove with blood on his head named Archimedes activated the Ubercharge and brought out his crossbow and fired directly at Piccolo. Piccolo countered by firing his ki blast at Medic and an antenna beam at Archimedes, who moved out of the way. Piccolo then surrounded the room with a hellzone grenade, but then Medic closed with the bonesaw. A flurry of combat followed, with Piccolo landing a large series of punches and kicks and Medic attacking with the bonesaw. As Medic floored Piccolo with a surprise attack, Piccolo had the hellzone grenade kick in. The resulting explosion blasted Medic from the room.
GAME!!!!!
Goku then met up with Piccolo to report. “It’s not in here,” he said.
“I haven’t found anything either. Let’s move on,” Piccolo responded.
(TF2 Demoman Theme) Daphnes searched the top of Red Base for anything out of place until he saw some crates leading into that of the Intelligence Room. “There you are...” Then he saw something next to a crate- a sticky bomb.
As it exploded, he heard someone yell “KA-BOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!”
3!!! 2!!! 1, GO!!!!!
“What the-?! Show yourself, Demolition Man!” Daphnes said before a grenade landed at his feet. “Oh… Son of a-” Daphnes said, before getting blown up and flung into the Intelligence room. Demoman then rushed at him with the Claidheamh Mòr.
“I hate it when there are still people left over” he yelled.
“THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!!!” Daphnes shouted in a Scottish accent, charging at him and clashing against his blade with the Lord Sword. The duel brought them to the edge of the roof, where Demoman was pinned against the edge.
“Whoah! Whoa!” he said, losing balance.
“I wasn’t even wanting to fight you, buddy… next time, keep out of my way.” Daphnes said, before grabbing onto that of Demoman’s foot and tossing him back up to the top of the base.
"Uncle! I give up! I don’t want to die!” Demoman said desperately.
GAME!!!!!
“Pathetic, a true knight would’ve fought to the end. Now get back to your post, Scotsman,” Daphnes said.
“Yes sir!” Demoman said before standing next to Daphnes with the Claidheamh Mòr pointed at the ground.
(TF2 Scout Theme) “Is this thing even here?” Serif said angrily after the 17th crate with nothing in it. He was not in a good mood. Scout could see that from where he stood.
“What’s he even looking for? Nobody cares what’s in the crates,” he thought. “Oh well. Gotta keep these green guys from snatching our intel,” Scout fired the scattergun, but Serif dodged.
(Megalovania [optional]) “Ya really think I’m just gonna stand there and take it? Yes, I knew all about you sneaking up on me,” Serif said.
“Let’s play ball, pal. Spoilers, but uhh… I’m gonna win,” Scout said, before grabbing onto his bat. He swung and he swung and he swung, and he whiffed and he whiffed and he whiffed.
“Where’s your homer, buddy? I thought you were gonna win,” Serif said.
“Oh yeah, really funny pal! Now, how about a bit o’ THIS?!” Scout said, before drinking Crit-I-Cola and trying to whack Serif from behind with his bat and whiffing.
“Alright, that’s it,” Serif said, flying up with his rocket boots, and spraypainting the room with fire from his AK-47s.
“Well how about I tell ya I’m a force a nature!” Scout said, retaliating unsuccessfully with The Force A Nature.
“Well then, force of nature, get a load or this!” Serif said, firing Gaster Blasters at Scout. Scout then tried to get a shot in with his pistol, but Serif melted it with a fireball. Then he sent a surge of electricity through the metal floor, hitting Scout.
“Okay, Un-Freakin-Fair!” Scout said. Scout took aim with the pistol, only to find that Serif was not there. He saw Serif above him, one eye glowing orange and dripping some sort of orange plasma, the other glowing cyan and giving off glowing cyan fumes. Suddenly Scout was flung against every surface by an unseen hand which acted as though he was a rag doll.”HOW THE HECK’RE YOU DOIN’ THAT?!” Scout said as the unseen hand brought him up to Serif.
“Just a few of the tricks in my hat. Now I can see that you’re good at what you do. I like your talents. If you leave me be while I do my business here, I’ll spare you,” Serif said, in his best intimidating voice.
“Heh, Ya don’t scare me dat much, Skull boy. Now, how’s about this?!” Scout said, taking a swing with his bat that disassembled Serif.
“Alright, that seemed way too easy,” Scout said, thinking he had won until he saw the bones on the floor creeping toward him. Frozen with shock, he watched helplessly as Serif reformed himself around Scout.
“You gonna get your act together now, bub? While we’re like this, I can make you do anything I want,” the skeleton said.
“OH COME ON! HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO RUN AWAY?!” Scout said, trying but failing to escape Serif’s Ribcager attack. To this Serif got tighter around Scout, trophying him. Serif then reactivated him.
“Are you gonna behave?” Serif said.
"What do you want,” Scout said.
“Something that was delivered here a while back. Still in the crate it came in,” Serif said.
“‘Cause I can help ya! Ya wanna break crates, I know where all the crates are! I could show ‘em to ya!” Scout said. Upon hearing this, Serif let Scout go.
“Alright, lead the way. But be warned, buddy. One false move...” he said.
(TF2 Pyro Theme) Captain Falcon was nearly at his wit's end with the whole mission. He had been searching for what felt like 300 hours and there was still no blasted candle in sight. He was about to give up and head back to the Falcon Flyer when he heard something. He turned around a corner to see what it was, only to discover that a tunnel he had been earlier was now blocked off by fire. Then he heard someone behind him, but it sounded muffled... muffled by something as simple as a gas mask.
3!!! 2!!! 1, GO!!!!!
Then a massive amount of fire was sprayed at him. Dodging, he saw a person in a gas mask- the Pyro. Seeing that Captain Falcon survived, he charged him with the fire ax, and took a swing at him, only to put him in range of a Falcon Punch. When that connected, Pyro was sent hurling back.
“Let’s make this quick. I don’t want him burning any crates,” Falcon said to himself, before going in for a Raptor Boost. Immediately Pyro charged at him with his flare pistol and shot at him with it. Falcon dodged all but two shots and countered with a Falcon Kick. Immediately Pyro used his flamethrower’s Compression blast and threw Captain Falcon back. Falcon used Raptor Boost and Falcon Dive to maneuver around Pyro and break crates. But, not finding a Lightless Candle, he decided to concentrate on avoiding Pyro and finding the others. But Pyro wouldn’t let him leave.
“Great White Hands, LEAVE ME ALONE!!!” Captain Falcon yelled. As he ran across the higher level of 2fort, Pyro followed him.
“This guy does not make it easy,” Falcon said, looking behind him as he ran. Suddenly he smacked into someone- Daphnes!
“Daphnes!” Captain Falcon said, relieved. “Oh am I glad to see you. There’s this crazy guy in a gas mask that won’t leave me alone!”
“Oi, that’s Pyro! PYRO! KNOCK IT OFF! I THOUGHT WE TAUGHT YA BETTER!” Demoman said from behind Daphnes, trying to ward off Pyro. But when Pyro did not yield, he grabbed onto the Claidheamh Mor, and charging at Pyro, with a glowing Red Eye, due to him not having his other eye, disarmed Pyro of his ax, Flare Gun, and even his Flamethrower. “I warned ye, Pyro. Next time listen to me, got it?!” Demoman said, before glaring at Pyro.
“Yeah, this guy is pretty much either nuts or funny as all Lanayru himself.” Daphnes said to Captain Falcon, before looking at Demoman, who smirked and showed Mercy to Pyro.
“So… I guess this means we win, right?” Captain Falcon asked.
(TF2 More Gun) Shulk had stuck mostly to indoor areas, which had served him well, until he had been teleported to the roof by a device he couldn’t see- and right into the view of a turret.
“Gotcha!” Somebody wearing a hard hat and goggles shouted as the turret fired.
3!!! 2!!! 1, GO!!!!!
“Monado Shield!” Shulk yelled, equipping said ability. Immediately Engineer brought out his trusty shotgun, the Rescue Ranger, and fired a shot into his Sentry, which powered it up to a level 2 Sentry, and it fired more shots at Shulk, and Shulk was getting hurt, but it was not as much as it was before putting up the Monado Shield. Eventually, the turret ran out of ammo.
“Darn” Engie said, before using The Rescue Ranger once again to reload the Turret.
(Mechanical Rythm [optional]) “Monado Speed!” Shulk said, and with increased speed destroyed the Engie’s other turrets with a series of backslashes, landing face-to-face with Engie. “Now then, to business. I came here with a very specific goal: to find something important that was brought here a while ago, and no, it doesn’t have anything to do with this ‘Intel’ everyone around here seems to be obsessed with. It came here in a container, where it is to this day. If I knew which one, I wouldn’t be here right now. Can you please let me look for it in peace?”
(TF2 More Gun) “Well… Then, I’ll, just, RUN!!!” Shulk said bashfully, shouting the last word, then doing just that. Suddenly his escape was cut off by Engineer teleporting right in front of him. “LEAVE ME ALONE! I’M NOT AFTER ANYTHING OF YOURS! CAN’T YOU GIVE A FELLOW SCIENTIST A HAND?!” Shulk yelled desperately.
“Exactly. I’m comin’ with. I know these stompin’ grounds better’n you. I can make it go faster.” Engie replied.
“Really? Thanks, I really appreciate it.” Shulk replied, then the two took off.
(TF2 Spy Theme) Vegeta combed his way through 2fort, opening all the containers he saw, not just crates. Suddenly he saw a familiar face up ahead- Krillin. Vegeta went up to him to discuss their findings. “I haven’t found anything, how about you?” Vegeta asked.
“I’ve found… your death” Krillin said, pulling a knife on Vegeta and dropping his mask to reveal Spy.
3!!! 2!!! 1, GO!!!!!
“YOU DIRTY INTERLOPER! GET READY TO FEEL THE WRATH OF THE SAIYANS!!!” Vegeta yelled. Vegeta then fired the Gallick Gun at Spy, before Spy used the Dead Ringer, and faked his death. “That should teach you!” Vegeta said, walking off in a huff until he saw Spy sneaking back up on him. Vegeta turned to block several bullets from Spy’s revolver with a Ki Barrier.
“What?! Unfair! You aren’t even Heavy!” Spy said, surprised that his bullets had had no effect on Vegeta. Then Vegeta hit Spy again and again before throwing and then spiking him upward.
“Lousy moron,” Vegeta said, walking off in a huff.
“Behind you!” Spy shouted. He had gotten close enough to Vegeta to stab him with his knife.
(SSBB Battlefield) “Behind YOU!” Serif, who came into the passage a few seconds later, said, before firing several Gaster Blasters at Spy.
“HEY! LAY OFFA HIM!” Scout said, before grabbing onto his bat.
“What’s the deal? He’s attacking Vegeta!” Serif said.
“That’s Spy! One of my teammates! SPY! STOP! THEY’RE NOT HERE FOR WHAT WE THINK THEY ARE!! THEY’RE JUST LOOKIN’ FOR SOMETHIN’ IN ON OF THE CRATES!” Scout said.
“Well… If you trust him, that’s good enough for me, Monsieur.” Spy put away his knife and gave a Medi-Cupcake to Vegeta.
“NOOOOOO! DON’T TRUST THEM, THEY AFTER OUR INTEL!” Heavy said, joining the conversation as they went into a large room.
“Heavy, quit yer bellyachin’, they ain’t after our intel, in fact, I met up with another one of ‘em, and they ain’t too bad. Say’s he’s lookin’ for somethin’ in one of the crates,” Engineer said, walking in with Shulk right behind him, and engineer having his wrench in his hand.
“Spiky hair guy beat Heavy! Heavy not forgive!” Heavy yelled.
“Hey Biggums, remember me?” Goku said, flying in next to Vegeta.
“AAAAAAAAAARGH! HEAVY SMASH SPIKY HAIRS! ALL OF THEM!” Heavy said, before Engineer got in the way, taking a punch from Heavy’s fist, and went flying directly at a wall.
“That’s the spirit! Give them a good wake-up slap, I’ll be right behind you,” Medic said, Ubercharging Heavy, before Scout, Spy, and Engineer got in the way, acting as a shield against Heavy and Medic’s Onslaught.
“Looking at Heavy, I can tell his weakness is that he’s not very fast. MONADO SPEED!” Shulk said, before landing a series of rapid backslashes to Heavy.
“OI! WHAT JUST HAPPENED?!” Demoman said, walking down with two others, Daphnes and Captain Falcon and Pyro was on Demo’s Back.
“DEMO! MIND HELPIN’ US?! HEAVY AND MEDIC ARE CONVINCED THAT THESE GUYS ARE AFTER OUR INTEL, WHEN THEY AREN’T!” Scout shouted, worried that they might not last long enough to convince them, and immediately Demo dropped Pyro, charged directly at heavy, Claidheamh Mòr in hands, and glowing red eye.
“I got the big guy. FALCON PAWNCH” Captain said, executing said move on Heavy, launching him backward and knocking him flat on his back.
“Ha! Got-OW! Who’s shooting at me?!” Captain Falcon said.
“Gotcha, ya bloody bugeye!” Sniper said, reloading his rifle. Immediately Spy used the Deadringer to cloak himself, sneak up behind Sniper, and knock him down onto the ground without killing his teammate.
“So that was the secret. Thanks for telling me, I couldn’t shake him for the life of me,” Kakashi said before Spy smirked at him.
“My pleasure, though I believe introductions are in order after this Scuffle,” Spy said.
“HEY NAZIS! GET THIS AMERICAN BOOT!” Soldier yelled, shooting a rocket into the middle of the battle, before Spy had everyone move out of the way, and decided to do one thing, throw his knife at one of the Crates, just to try to call off the fight, and it passed everyone who was fighting.
“Are we done fighting? If so, we have wasted hours of our time, when We could’ve- wait, one of the crates is open,” Spy said, before he and everyone else were thrown back by a massive explosion, causing Daphnes to be staggered, and get back up seconds later.
(Bill Cipher theme) When the dust settled, they saw the strangest being any of them had ever seen. He looked like a yellow triangle with arms, legs, a top hat, a bow tie, a cane, and a single eye. “AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! I gotta say, thanks for wearing yourselves out. It makes my job that much easier,” he said before Daphnes started to chuckle and then burst out into laughter, before he charged straight at this one-eyed Triangle with a bow tie, top hat, and a cane.
“You don’t seem to get it do you? I’m going to need that little candle you ONE EYED ABOMINATION!” Daphnes said, before throwing him to the ground and starting to punch him thousands, if not millions of times over, until he got knocked off.
“You know, that actually didn’t hurt me one bit,” The triangle said, before crumbling to ash. He had used a decoy- the real one was floating above them next to the crate.
“And just who do you think you are?!” Soldier yelled.
“Name’s Bill Cipher, and I’ll be taking this,” The triangle-Bill Cipher-said, before reaching into the debris of the crate and pulling out a black candle.
“Before you leave, FIGHT ME AT FULL POWER, COWARD!” Daphnes said, before flying at Bill Cipher and getting ready to battle.
“Nah, I don’t feel like it,” Bill said, before summoning a circle of symbols around him and then shrinking and vanishing.
GAME!!!!!
“Hey guys, I came back! Let’s find this candle!” Krillin said, entering through the hole Bill made.
“Too late. We couldn’t get it. Someone else already stole it before we could get to it,” Daphnes said, disappointed and lowering his head.
“Might as well head back and see if the others have found anything,” Kakashi said.
“Well… Guess I’m in.” Engie said.
“Let’s do dis!” Scout said.
“DA!” Heavy said. Then everyone got in either the Falcon Flyer or the heart of Gold and flew back to Beerus’s planet.
(SSBM Menu) Pit flew through the stages he knew so well, seeking the friends he had made through ten years of combat.
“Hm? Hey, Pit! What are you-a Doin’ here?” Mario said when Pit had found them at the Delfino Plaza stage.
“I need to talk. It’s important. Gather everyone you can,” Pit said darkly.
“Okie Dokie!” Mario gathered Ike, Olimar, Ness, Lucario, Pikachu, Wolf, and Joker around Pit.
“So what’s going on?” Wolf asked, readying his blaster like he usually did when a fight was coming around.
“You know those rumors that are everywhere these days about Lord Tirek and his supposed prophecy?” Pit asked.
”Yes. However, this may be concerning to everyone in fangea,” Lucario said telepathically, being calm about the situation, while also making it apparent that he was concerned.
“Well, uh, not to burst your bubble, but they’re true. All of them. I saw the green-clad hero come through myself, and saw in a pensieve someone collecting the blood needed for the ritual,” Pit said, before showing them everything that happened.
“Wow… this is serious,” Joker said.
“Wait, YOU CAN TALK?!?!?!?!” Olimar screamed.
“Welp, the world’s gone crazy,” Roy said, able to enter the room now that the match was over.
“I was expecting this… while yes it was unexpected, it felt like he could’ve talked anyway,” Ike said.
“So I think what I’m saying is, will you join me in helping stop the prophecy from happening?” Pit asked.
“When have we ever backed down from something like this? We’re in, and you know we’re willing to help.” Ness said.
“Hey, Do you mind if I come in there and-a say I’m-a joinin’ too?” Luigi said, before walking up to Mario, hugging him.
“Luigi, I don’t think-a you should. Heaven knows you get-a scared. But I’m-a in. Let's-a go!” Mario responded, jumping up in the air.
“Alright, Pikmin, assemble! We got a mission!” Olimar said, his Pikmin gathering around him.
“Nothin’ better to do. I’m in” Wolf said.
“I will fight by your side,” Ike said.
“Same here!” Roy said.
“My aid is yours as well,” Lucario said telepathically.
“I’m in. Let’s get this ready.” Joker said. Pit grabbed his bow and readied it for battle. Mario spun his cap, Wolf smirked, showing his fangs, Lucario immediately dashed to another location, looking for another warrior similar to himself, while Roy and Ike readied their blades for combat, whilst Joker readied his Persona, and his gun: An IMI Desert Eagle. Palutena then sent them all to Beerus’s planet.
(Ludovico Einaudi - Experience) Cozy Glow was upset. She had woken up to discover that she wasn’t the ruler of Equestria. Instead, she was here, a prisoner in Tartarus, where Celestia keeps all the threats to the pony way of life locked away. She stared longingly past the bars of her cage, wanting desperately to see the sun again. Then she made her way back to the patch of earth she was sleeping on, but then she saw something strange. A rock, that now that it had been moved, she could see it was hiding something. As Cozy approached the object, she saw that it was a metal door. The door was heavy, but she could open it.
(SSBB Menu Theme) Going inside, she found some sort of bunker. At the end of a metal hallway, Lord Tirek sat in front of a bunch of monitors, talking to someone on the other side of the monitor. “You remember what happened to your home, the Isle of the Ancients, do you not? Do you wish that fate to others?” Tirek said to the person on the other side of the screen.
“Heaven forbid! But what you ask is a difficult task, and I may have already done too much, sneaking into Tartarus to give you equipment that heaven knows Celestia would be cross if she knew you had. For the record, I think it would be best if I stayed away from Equestria for now,” the person, now Cozy could see it was a robot, said.
“Very well. I have a different task for you. I need you to travel the fandoms, making sure certain people know what to do. I’ll send you a list. Hopefully, Celestia isn’t tracking internet signals,” Tirek replied
“I got the list. I am on my way!” The stranger replied.
“Fly well, R.O.B. All of Fangea is in your hands,” Tirek said.
“So...” Cozy Glow said. “How long have you had this stuff here without telling your cagemate? WHY SHOULD YOU GET ALL THIS WHEN I GET NOTHING!?!?!”
“Cozy, Cozy, Cozy,” Tirek said, his voice surprisingly soft. “You can’t begin to understand what is to come. Suffice to say, great and terrible things are about to come to pass. I know what is coming, and so I do what I can, with the help of my agents abroad. Do yourself a favor, filly, and don’t get involved.”
“With all due respect, Lord Tirek, I think having another in on the plan would be hugely beneficial, as a sort of backup plan,” R.O.B said.
“And why pray to tell, do we need a backup plan like this? Celestia cares not for my doings, only that I don’t leave my prison and that it be unpleasant,” Tirek responded.
“It’s not Celestia I’m worried about. Bowser told me that Frieza’s on the move and the nature of his actions are rather alarming!” R.O.B informed Tirek.
“...Very well. Cozy Glow, you hereby inducted to the sun cancer,” Tirek responded after a long silence.
“YES! What do we do?” Cozy said, eager to escape.
“We’re still developing the plan, and it’s largely in flux,” Lord Tirek said. “For now we keep eyes on Fangea, and monitor any developments, but mark my words, great and terrible things are to come...”
(Ryu Theme) Ryu began his training once more, even meditation seemed to have lowered his guard when Ken Masters was right behind him.
“Ryu! How’s it been since last time we fought Bison?!” Ken asked him before Ryu stood up.
“Hm. I’ve been doing well, good friend. You have gotten stronger, and have a child of your own, I assume,” Ryu asked.
“Wha-?! How did-?!” Ken stated, flabbergasted.
“Lucky guess. After all, we haven’t seen each other since Gouken began training us once again,” Ryu replied, before readying for a sparring match.
“You entering that tournament?” Ken asked.
“Another World Warrior Tournament? If it means I can improve my skill, then yes,” Ryu said while smirking, before both of them started striking at each other, Hadoukens flying past one another, while Ken kept avoiding, and got close enough to use a Shinryuken. Ryu avoided, and fired a Shinku Hadoken. Ken dodged but then was distracted as something big flew overhead.
“Interesting…” Ryu said as he was looking at it.
“Oh, by the way, the tournament’s already on the last round, but Zangief was a no-show. So they said I could pick any opponent I want,” Ken said.
“And you chose me?” Ryu asked.
“Well Duh! Why not settle the end of the tournament by settling our rivalry once and for all?” Ken said.
“A good choice, as long as we both improve,” Ryu said before he and Ken walked up to where it was. And the match began.
(Ryu Theme SFV) “You sure it’s here?” Scout asked as the Heart of Gold touched down outside the arena Ryu went into.
“Checked and double checked,” Android 18 said.
“And if it’s not, we just move on, no big deal,” Master Roshi said.
“Focus on the assignment at hand, all we need is the candle, nothing more, nothing less. Anyone who stands in our way, we aren’t dealing with… which is hypocritical of me to say, due to me not clarifying, but even still, focus on getting that Lightless Candle!” Daphnes said before he already sensed it… but when he did, he realized his powers had been decreased extremely since he was in the Geek Club infiniverse. He realized he was no longer the powerful god-like entity he was before, he was now as weak as Serif was when he began his self-training.
“Sorry… I’m just not as powerful as I was when we first fought… I feel… hindered by something,” Daphnes said.
“C’mon, we gotta keep moving,” Captain Falcon said. The party went to the gate of the arena where Ryu and Ken were fighting. They hadn’t gone far when they suddenly saw Ken go flying out through the gate past them.
“AAAAAAAUGH! Well, I guess you’re the winner, Ryu,” Ken said, walking back into the arena.
“Oi! How’d you like some new challengers!” Demoman said, running into the arena with the Claidheamh Mòr drawn.
“By all means, if you wish,” Ryu said.
3!!! 2!!! 1, GO!!!!!
Ryu fired a Hadouken at Demo. Demo avoided, but narrowly.
“Sorry to burst your bubble, but we’re going to need that trophy,” Tien said, following Demoman.
“I would give it to you, but your friend mentioned a fight, and I never turn down a challenge,” Ryu said before Daphnes walked into the arena.
“Than I shall fight first. I may know little outside Hyrule, but fisticuffs are going to be a good match for me,” Daphnes said, before bracing himself for this fight. Ryu started with a hurricane kick at Daphnes. Immediately, Daphnes jumped and used a blast of magic straight at Ryu, trying to send him flying. Then he saw Serif aiming his gun at Ryu. Daphnes glared at him not to fire
“Why not?” Serif asked.
“It’s supposed to be a one on one match! No shots got it?!” Daphnes said telepathically to Serif, before kicking Ryu. Immediately he kept fighting his battle and was punching Ryu repeatedly, with Ryu countering with hadoukens and shoryukens. Immediately, Daphnes blocked and even through one attack that even he didn’t know he could do, Hadangeki.
(Dimentio, Charming Magician) “This fight is such fun to watch, but it’s time for the real star of the show to enter,” someone at the back of the arena said. “And now the crowd applauds for Dimentio, master of dimensions!” The person entered the arena. He was strange, with a cap and cape with purple and light-yellow stripes, with the purple striped portions of the cap containing jingle bells on each end. Underneath the cape, he had two black hands separate from his body as well as black pointy-ended shoes. His face was like a theatrical mask, split in half so that the right side is white and the left side is black. The eyes likewise were differently colored: black for the right eye, and yellow for the left. His mouth was colored red and set in a grin.
“Who are you, and why show yourself?! Is it because you need this?” Daphnes said, pointing to the lightless candle, and readying his sword.
“Oh, do stop being so grave. I already have what I came for, but I thought I’d give you a little show before I exit. Now, ladies and gentlemen, prepare yourself for the greatest magic show you’ll ever see!” Dimentio said, spinning around.
“If nothing more you’re a man of cunning tricks… I’ll use only my skill to defeat you,” Daphnes said.
“Oh yes, but which of me will you defeat?” the jester said, as suddenly there were ten jesters looking at Daphnes. Daphnes started to slash at Dimentio, whilst blocking his magic attacks. Daphnes thought he scored a hit, but then the man exploded, and he heard him say “Wrong!” as the man was then behind him.
“! What?! How did that happen?!” Immediately Daphnes decided to fire in hundreds of directions at once, always being careful to miss that of his allies and even Ryu. However, each time he hit a copy, he was damaged. Worse, he never hit the real one- whichever one of the hundreds it was, they all moved around too much. It didn’t help that other things started changing as well, like which way was down. “ARE YOU DONE TOYING WITH ME?!” Daphnes said, a glow of hatred in his eyes already beginning to disperse, and his body starting to become covered in a malicious substance that made even the Satsui No Hadou look tame.
“Ah ha ha, the show’s only just begun,” Dimentio said, each of the Dimentios shooting stars at Daphnes and his allies.
“YOU KNOW WHAT?! SCREW IT!!!!” Daphnes said before his body grew spider-like legs, and fangs protruding from his mouth, and a blood-curdling howl not even being heard from him before. Suddenly Daphnes burst into a rage, and began to activate a form of pure hatred that didn’t even feel pain… A Malice form, before he heard the crunching of bone-Serif had shot a rocket at one of the copies.
“The copies return the damage you deal them, without damaging the real one,” Master Roshi said, while performing The Evil Containment Wave on what turned out to be more copies, but not damaging him. Both Ryu and Ken had several burns and black eyes from their own damage. Scout shot a round at a Dimentio but then heard Demoman scream.
“He can put his duplicates on top of us!” Captain Falcon realized. Daphnes was impaling, blasting, and even biting off the heads of every single Dimentio clone, whilst also being engulfed in Malice, but then saw that his allies had been hurt. And everyone saw him turn back to normal and trying to heal each and every single one of his allies, while not caring about his own injuries.
“That was fun, don’t you think?” Dimentio said, all the duplicates vanishing, showing the real one holding the trophy.
“This was my fault… I shouldn’t have come here, because now? I think that I’m just going to end up destroying this world…” Daphnes said, knowing something would ram into him if Dimentio moved.
“Do look out, you might hit a bird,” Dimentio said, sidestepping to let Pit hit him with a charge, and Daphnes stood there… Waiting for Pit to hit him. Pit pulled out of his dive just in time, and Daphnes eyes were shut while a tear fell.
“Daphnes! I got some more fighters for our cause!” Pit said happily.
“Oh well, time for my exit. Would hate to miss my next que,” Dimentio said, vanishing with the trophy.
(Farewell Hyrule King) "Oh hey, Pit. Just for the record, meet us at Beerus's with the recruits when you get them," Serif said.
“Is this the boss? Maybe he can tell me how much I’m gettin’ paid.” Wolf pointed at Daphnes.
“...I’m not the boss. And I never was strong enough to save anyone… I’m not the Green Knight. Just because a prophecy said a legendary knight clad in green would save Fangea from a cataclysm doesn’t mean he’s me. I’m just another monster.” Daphnes tried to teleport somewhere else. After the teleport failed, he heard Mario respond.
“Then-a who’s it-a supposed to be?! Luigi?!” Mario said sarcastically.
“No, no. You-a said it yourself. I get-a scared. I need-a to hide behind the guy with a big-a sword” Luigi said.
“Maybe it is him… Because I failed to get two of the lightless candles… I failed to keep it under control... And if he is returning… Then don’t rely on me. I’m not a hero… I’m just a madman from another world.” Daphnes ran off, trying to hide from his new allies, due to him being scared they would shun him for the form he took… The monster he became when he used that form in front of his friends…
“Daphnes, you’re vitals have dropped significantly since the last scan, and so has your will… is anything wrong?” Delta asked him, worried and concerned.
“...I’m a monster, D. If they learn what that form did to others? They’ll fear me. I want to keep away for their safety. For them… I’m just another monster.” Daphnes looked away from where the others were.
“No. Just because you have great power doesn’t mean we will despise you.” Ike put his hand on Daphnes’s shoulder. “I for one think it would be an honor to fight by your side.” Immediately, Daphnes looked down due to him being scared he would fall for the same trap he fell for back then.
“I’m not strong enough… I don’t think I’m able to defeat him. Tell me, what do you see that inspire others in these dark times?” Daphnes asked Ike, whilst a tear fell to the ground, and he hugged Ike, afraid, and starting to cry, whilst also trying to calm down from the nameless fear… that drive to push him back to harm others. He was scared and enraged at himself for wanting to harm others like he once did.
“Yo DJ Big Sword! What’s the matter?” Captain Falcon said, walking up
“My name is Daphnes… and I can’t handle how I’m the cause of everyone’s issues! It’s my fault that I couldn’t get the candle, and it’s my fault The Ritual is going to happen! First it was my cowardice, my hubris, and now my weakness!” Daphnes said before his arm started to bleed.
“Whoa, whoa, whoa, what weakness? What hubris? What cowardice? Dude, you’re the toughest, bravest, most determined guy on this team! You’re the freakin’ green hero! We need you!” Captain Falcon responded.
“Then what else am I missing that this legendary prophecy said?! What else could the legend not have told?! WHAT?!” Daphnes said.
“I don’t know, but the reason we lost isn’t that we aren’t good enough. I know that much, but we need to keep getting stronger, or else the rest won’t keep on our path,” Goku said. “
The bad guys played dirty, clear and simple, so we gotta up our game,” Captain Falcon said.
“C’mon, Daphnes. Let’s go join the others. And I stand by what I said to ML. We like you. All of us,” Serif said, flying over.
“... you all… really didn’t need to do this… but you did it anyway… because you truly do trust me. Thank you,” Daphnes said, before hugging all of them. Then the group reassembled around Pit.
(SSBB Stage Builder Theme) “Lady Palutena, can you track where he went?” Pit asked via Palutena’s Guidance.
“...Sadly, not yet Pit… You might want to see how Daphnes is holding up, he looks… terrified out of his mind,” Palutena said, before giving Pit a bow that looked scorched, and charred… The bow was made from a type of wood only found in Hyrule… but it was not able to be used properly by him.
“Lady Palutena, why give me this? It’s-” Pit started.
“My bow…” Daphnes walked up to Pit, took his bow, and used his magic to give it a new design… a design that looked oddly familiar to that of the Bow of Light from the Era of Twilight.
“Why did Palutena give you this?” Daphnes asked.
“I dunno, She’s weird sometimes,” Pit responded. “Hey, what’s wrong with your face?”
“I’m feeling something,” Daphnes said. “I know where the next candle is!”
“REALLY?! WHERE?!?!” everyone said.
“...Hyrule. I know where I crafted this, and I know how to get there!” Daphnes said.
“The bow’s great’n all, but what about the candle?!” Wolf said before Daphnes pointed directly where Hyrule Castle is.
“Sounds good, but we should head back and report first. TO THE HEART OF GOLD!” Serif said before everyone including Ryu and Ken boarded the Heart of Gold. Then Eddie charted a course, and the team flew to Beerus’s planet to report to Luna.
Eventually, they arrived in the lush plains of Hyrule field, being much more open than when Daphnes had once seen them. “Interesting… The fields of Hyrule are much… Bigger than when I last saw them. They’re lusher and much more open than when I first saw them… And the technology here is much more different… what happened?” Daphnes said, before looking around and noticing a Run-Down Guardian. “Is anyone else seeing this piece of Hylian History?” Daphnes asked before Olimar looked at the Guardian.
“Soo… how old is that??” he asked.
“Probably over twenty million years old,” Daphnes said before he accidentally activated it. Immediately, Daphnes jumped back, and golden highlights activated on it, whilst the eye glowed bright blue.
“The Fangeic Cataclysm," Serif said, "or somebody got here first. You know what, let’s ask the guardian what happened.” Immediately the Guardian started to get up from its stationary position while looking around its environment for who reactivated it, Ken braced, preparing a Hadouken. Immediately it looked at Daphnes, and walked up to him, while not doing anything to harm them. It immediately laid itself down in front of Daphnes, and allowed Daphnes, Serif, Olimar, Engie, Ken, Yamcha, Gohan, Trunks, and Goten to see what had happened 20,000,000 years ago in Hyrule. They saw the Guardians fighting off a being made of shadows, whilst also losing numbers quickly. The Guardians who were defeated by this “Entity” were glowing with dark magenta colors, whilst also having a glowing red eye. It was the last one standing, and a golden light enveloped not only Hyrule, but everywhere else. The last thing it saw… was a man with a hood, armor, and an invisible sword in his hand. After that, it shut down.
“It seems that this was the Dark Invasion… near the end of the war,” Ken said.
“So… we can trust this guy, right?” Serif said, before lowering his AK’s. Immediately, the Guardian guided the party to where the Lightless Candle was at. Soon they arrived at Hyrule Castle and Daphnes put his hand on another deactivated guardian. It almost activated, but the core was missing...
“This place seems too peaceful. Isn’t there a wizard that tries to break into this castle?” Trunks said, cautiously.
“Usually, and he kidnaps me frequently. But he has disappeared. I don’t know where and don’t care to find out, because personally, I find it a pleasant change.” A Hylian maiden said, entering the room.
“Warlock, not wizard, Get it right, Kiddo. Also, it is an honor to see you in form, Princess Zelda Hyrule XXVII,” Daphnes said, bowing.
“At ease, hero,” Zelda said. “Come, tarry for a time. I have heard frightening rumors, and I need to give the hero something that is his.”
“The Lightless Candle? If so, we’ll take it off your hands, and be sure to make sure to keep it safe,“ Daphnes said.
“That would be very kind, but this is something else,” Zelda then led the group to a secure room and opened it with magic, which led to the Hylian Sacred Realm. Inside were three glowing triangles arranged into a symbol that was on Daphnes’s left hand.
“The Triforce… It’s the symbol of hope, and peace within Hyrule… I assume you want someone to grant the desire of who touches it?” Daphnes asked Zelda.
“No, I want you to take it, for it is yours, Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule I,” Zelda said, before Daphnes removed the Duplicate Triforce he had the Gods of Hyrule make, and destroyed them. Immediately he walked up to it, and used his wish to create another Hyrule Triforce, and he took the second Hylian Triforce.
“No… Hyrule still needs the Triforce… The Power of the Triforce is not able to travel with its host… and stay in the same place… it’s bonded to that of the spirit of the Hero, Goddess, or the Demon King. I’m sorry, You’re majesty… but I must think of this Hyrule, and the safety of everyone else, more than my own strength,” Daphnes said before he looked at his friends. “Now the Lightless Candle… where is it at? Or was it stolen like the other two we found were?” Daphnes asked without any hostility.
“It is in the relic chamber, but first, what I meant when I said take the Triforce is that I want you to reestablish your bond with it. I can see that such a bond you have made, but something has blocked it. Go now, friends of Zelda Lord. This is for the children of Hyrule alone,” Zelda said.
“If it’s in the relic chamber, just point me there and I’ll get it,” Ken said. Then all of Daphnes’s companions left the room.
“Take my hand, Daphnes… It is time for a certain event to happen… It’s time to heal your mental wounds.” Zelda said.
When Daphnes did, he felt himself teleport to the islands of the sky, more specifically, the place where he had grown up... Skyloft. Immediately something flew overhead and landed nearby where he was, at speeds faster than light.
“A golden loftwing?! They’re said to be the fastest, and rarest type of loftwing in all of Skyloft and all of Hyrule!” Daphnes said.
“She knows you. Touch her, on her beak, then listen to Impa,” Zelda said as Impa materialized behind them.
“*Ahem* You possibly already know of the history of Hyrule… but the Entity of Shadows returning is alarming especially considering that we have had an age of peace since the days of the First Dark Invasion… if history repeats itself, he will return… and he will face against Hyrule as a last line of defense,” Impa said. Immediately Daphnes put his hand on the Loftwing’s head and got on her back. “Why aren’t you connected to your realm? Why are your powers from here so weakened?” Impa asked.
“There are some things I’d like to keep silent, member of the Sheikah, but if I got to the sacred Realm of Hyrule, I could be able to renew my abilities from here… Lorule will be another milestone,” Daphnes said.
“Hmm.., Try to use your power,” Impa said. Daphnes tried and when he did, he saw that what used to be thick and heavy chains in his mind in the Geek Club infiniverse barring him from his power were here pathetic strings that snapped at but a thought. Daphnes regained his Legend of Zelda powers in a rush, casting a flawless Nayru’s Love.
“! I don’t believe it, my power’s rising quicker than I thought possible! This is amazing! I’ve not only recovered a lot, I’ve also got a ton of new power! I bet I can pull off traveling to Lorule, Termina, and the Twilight Realm and back, heck, maybe even beyond that!” Daphnes said, super excited to fight off Bill and Dimentio.
“Hey, you know where the relic room is?” Ken asked Midna, who was passing by.
“A. I’m from the Twilight Realm, how would I know where it is? And B. Who are you exactly?” Midna said, whilst also smirking, and immediately used a bit of her own magic to move away from Ken, when something crashed through the ceiling, and immediately repaired it.
“Uh… First off, what is that?" Ken said. "And secondly, I’m Ken. From Street Fighter. C’mon, Midna, you remember me, right? You wrecked me the other day at the Fountain of Dreams when Fox used that assist trophy.”
“Okay, wow you do not know what sarcasm is do ya? Seriously, I just was joking with ya. I remember you, Ken Masters.” Midna gave Ken a noogie, which Ken broke out of and went to the relic room, and that same something revealed itself as a golden bird that looked exactly like a giant Shoebill Stork, with someone riding the back of it.
“Good afternoon everybody! I found myself a Loftwing!” Daphnes said, jumping off the back of the proud bird.
“Well, that’s good to hear, but Ken, just go get to the treasury!” Midna said. Ken went into the treasury.
“Now, if I were a candle, where would I hide?” He said.
“Try to your right.” A voice on his right said. When Ken turned, he was taken aback by what he saw. The candle was there, in the leaves of a flower with a face.
“Wha- Who, or what, are you?!” Ken asked.
“Howdy. I’m Flowey. Flowey the Flower. And I’ll be taking this!” Flowey said. Immediately something teleported in and glared at Flowey.
“Why show up here, Asriel Dreemurr? Is it to steal something we need, or is there something else you want? Perhaps something valuable,” Daphnes said.
“Welllllllll… Seeing as though I have what I want, I’ll just have a little fun. Here, take some friendliness petals!” Flowey said, before shooting a bunch at the group. Daphnes forced him out of the ground and put him in a flower pot.
“Clever, verrrrrrry clever. You know I can just hop out, right?” Flowey said.
“There, now you can’t burrow anymore. And how so? You’re stuck in there. Made sure of it,” Daphnes said, before grabbing the candle and walking off. Flowey vined Daphnes, then shattered the pot on his face.
“Hasta la pasta!” Flowey said, burrowing away.
“Well at least he didn’t keep the candle,” Gohan said, whilst Daphnes was holding one.
“As long as we have one, and destroy it, we can keep them away from that Ritual… We just need one to destroy. And we have it,” Daphnes said, before he raised up a Thompson Contender, loaded an Origin Round into it, and was about to shoot it… but when he fired, it did absolutely nothing to the lightless candle.
“It didn’t do anything… no… I understand. It’s of non magic origin… by the time the round struck and took effect, the candle’s inability to produce magic protected it,” Daphnes said. Suddenly the candle crumbled to ash.
“Another decoy,” Trunks said.
“Looking for something?” Flowey said. He was on the edge of a balcony, holding the real candle. Then he jumped- onto what looked like a rebuilt Pillar of Autumn, only more colorful and crazy.
Then he flew away on it, carrying the candle. Immediately Daphnes tried to shoot down the engines, but his shots bounced off the hull and engines.
“AGAIN?! HOW MANY MORE TIMES ARE WE GOING TO HAVE ANOTHER CANDLE STOLEN?!” Daphnes said, before whistling for his loftwing, and flying straight after it at speeds faster than light. “You’re not getting away that easily!!!”
“Daphnes, due to you moving at speeds faster than light, I’d suggest you fire at the pillar as soon as you see the candle,” Delta said, before the ship sped off at speeds faster than his golden loftwing.
“I’LL HELP YOU!” Yamcha said, before immediately getting whacked by a random propellor out of nowhere
“Whoops, sorry!” Goten said to Yamcha, accidentally riding on that same propellor. “I lost him. Let’s head back.” Serif said, before the ship that Flowey was on sped faster than even the Heart of Gold.
GAME!!!!!
Immediately the Golden Loftwing crash-landed into the Hangar of the Heart of Gold. “....OW! First off, Delta how fast was that ship going?” Daphnes asked Delta.
“Approximately 59 quintillion miles per hour,” Delta said, confirming the ship was going at that speed.
“Your majesty, do you know where any other candles are?” Daphnes asked Zelda.
“I think… I KNOW WHERE ONE IS!” Serif yelled.
“Where? Where is one of ‘em?!” Engie said.
“Just trust me. Eddie, et's head home!” Serif responded.
“Now on course for home,” Eddie said. “Arriving in Approximately 12 minutes,” Delta said.
Jigglypuff used Rest to send Samus flying off Dreamland, only for Kirby to send it the same way with the Home Run Bat. Then Pichu hit Kirby with thunder by a Blast Box, which sent them both flying, but Kirby KO’d first.
While Pichu did a victory dance and the others applauded, Pit walked in.
“Hey, I need your help. I’ve found out that Lord Tirek was right! There is a green hero! And there’s something big on the horizon, something evil. Will you help me fight it?” he asked.
“As the only one here who can talk, I say yes,” Samus said. The others made noises of agreement.
“Great! Palutena will send you to our base on Beerus’s planet. I’m going to keep recruiting.” Pit then flew off, and the others were beamed to Beerus’s planet.
Spike was having a good day when there was a knock at the door.
“Spike, can you get the door?” Twilight asked.
“Oh, of course! Not like anyone else is near the door anyway,” Spike said sarcastically under his breath before he walked up to the door and opened it.
“Hello, Spike.” Derpy Hooves, who had knocked, said. “Is Twilight here today? I need to talk.”
“She’s in the Library, but why do you need to see her?” Spike said, hearing that there was worry in her voice.
“Thank you, I have a package to deliver to her… personally. I feel like I won’t be able to make it to her in time.” Derpy went upstairs. “Twilight? Do you have a minute?” Derpy asked once there.
“Uhh, yes? Why are you in here anyway, Ms. Hooves? Don’t you have any other package you need to deliver?” Twilight asked. Derpy set her bag on the table and began pulling out a bunch of papers. One was a picture of Lord Tirek, with his prophecy written on it.
“You are familiar with this prophecy, yes?” Derpy asked.
“Yes, I am. But what would it have to do with us at this very time? The first Dark Invasion ended over 20,000 years ago! We know that if he is returning… we haven’t found him, or the other half of the prophecy...yet,” Twilight said.
“Actually… I found this from a contact in Undertale.” Derpy said, pulling out a picture that showed a 4-months younger Serif transforming, his clothes becoming those of the Lord of Undertale.
“So what Tirek said is true… But that’s only one sign, not the whole thing,” Twilight said.
“But then, look at this,” Derpy said, showing a picture taken through her telescope. It showed Daphnes transforming, his prison clothes burning to reveal the garb of the Green Hero.
“! So it is coming to be… Celestia has to be notified Immediately! If this is to happen, we need to tell her what is going on!” Twilight said, before writing a letter to Celestia, warning her that what are regarded as rumors are no mere rumors, and that he is returning, and duplicating the pictures, sending them as well. “Hopefully she’ll reach this one.”
“I think we should tell your friends first. Celestia is rather touchy about this subject.” Derpy said, before Twilight sighed. “You’re right… Hold on, I’ll go tell the others.” Twilight teleported to each of her friends and told them everything.
“So what you're sayin’ is that those rumors really were true about this legendary Entity of Shadows returning, Twi?” Applejack asked, whilst Fluttershy was hiding underneath her chair.
“If that’s so, then I WANT TO GIVE THIS ENTITY A PIECE OF MY MIND!” Rainbow Dash said, before something pulled her back into her chair.
“Rainbow if you will control yourself for one moment, please. All hope is not lost, though… The Green Knight has shown himself… One a certain pony informed me of. Derpy,” Twilight said. Derpy informed everyone of what she found.
“So it is true… I wonder how he got those clothes onto himself in the first place?” Rarity asked herself.
“IS ALL YOU THINK ABOUT FASHION?!?!” Derpy yelled in frustration, immediately Fluttershy fell onto her back, and a goat noise was heard immediately when she did that.
“I think I could’ve heard that from the dining room,” another Pony by the name of Starlight Glimmer said, walking in.
“And at least I can study what is going on, especially the Phenomena around this ‘Entity of Shadows’ because despite it being 20,000 years old… I’ve never heard anything about it,” Starlight said before Twilight cut to the chase.
“We know what we’re up against, let’s make a plan to try and stop this,” she said.
"Can I make a serious confession? I knew the candle had been in Undertale for a while, but I seriously doubt it would still be there. But I can’t tell my friends that because, well, we’re kinda in the middle of a problem here."
"So you chose your home on a lark?"
"What? Can you really blame me? We went to Hyrule and Daphnes got way tougher. My turn!"
"You had your turn when you first became a Lord. Nevertheless, I do think Undertale would be a good place to start looking."
Thanks for validating. I knew you’d see it the way I do."
“hey bro, mind if I tell ya somethin’,” Sans asked his brother.
“UGHHH, WHAT NOW SANS?! CAN'T YOU SEE I'M IN THE MIDDLE OF SOMETHING?” Papyrus asked.
“oh, really? whatcha doin',” Sans asked.
“WELL SINCE YOU ASKED, I’M TRYING TO ACCESS THIS WEBSITE I’VE BEEN ON HUNDREDS, IF NOT THOUSANDS OF TIMES,” Papyrus said. “BUT THE COMPUTER IS BEING RIDICULOUSLY SLOW!”
“maybe it’s having no-stall-gia!” Sans said. Toriel then laughed so hard she almost dropped the butterscotch-cinnamon pie she was pulling out of the oven, but she recovered just in time.
“Now that you’re FINALLY done, can I make some pasta?” Undyne said.
“I do not see why not,” Toriel said.
“everybody behind cover!” Sans yelled taking Frisk with him behind the couch. Toriel was encouraging but out of the immediate range. Papyrus went into the kitchen to “help”.
“NGAHHHHHHHHHHHH!” Undyne screamed, mashing various vegetables with spears, creating a massive mess. Sans pulled Frisk’s head down and kept them safe from the carnage. Papyrus helped Undyne cram all the pasta into the pot, then turned up the heat as high as he could before Sans stopped him from burning the house down.
Then Undyne and Papyrus ate their spaghetti while the rest ate Toriel’s pie. “wow, dude. you’re making a lot of progress. this is almost edible.” Sans had a sample of Papyrus’s spaghetti.
“SHUT UP SANS! YOU JUST DON’T UNDERSTAND PERFECTION!” Papyrus retorted.
“Listen… I hear something overhead! It sounds like the Heart of Gold!” Asgore said.
“Really? Wow, I would like to see what new developments Serif’s made in his power,” Alphys said.
Everyone went out of the house into Snowdin to see that the Heart of Gold was, in fact, landed right outside. Inside the Heart of Gold, Daphnes was still brushing his loftwing’s head, whilst also updating his Quiver, Bomb Bag and his wallet, making him having an infinite amount of Arrows, Bombs, and Rupees.
“So, Serif, how many moons has it been since you were last here in this Fandom?” Daphnes asked Serif.
“Not long, actually. I was leaving here to do Luna’s job when I found you. C’mon, I’ll show you around.” Serif treated everyone to a small tour. “This is Snowdin, one of the most well-known places in Undertale. It’s like the second capital,” Serif said.
“Well, it’s definitely snowy,” Sniper said.
“That’s the Snowdin Shop, you can buy all sorts of items there, but it’s known for its bunny-shaped cinnamon rolls, though personally, I prefer a Bisicle,” Serif said.
“You eat bikes?” Engie said, confused.
“Not a bicycle, silly. A Bisicle. It’s like a two-use popsicle,” Serif clarified.
“This is a peaceful place, I almost feel as if we can rest here,” Lucario said telepathically.
“Yeah, Undertale’s great like that,” Serif said.
“Well, where can we stay for one night?” Olimar asked.
“That would be the inn. The owner of the Inn and that of the shop are sisters, so their businesses are in the same building,” Serif said, continuing with his tour. “Over there’s the library.” Serif pointed to a building with a sign that said “LIBRARBY”.
“Then why does the sign say Librarby instead of Library?” Android 17 said, noticing the misspelled sign.
“I’ve told them about it, but they keep saying they've got someone working on it,” Serif said. The group continued past small houses and many monsters gathered around a Christmas tree.
“I thought you all went to the surface when that Frisk kid broke that one barrier,” Kakashi said, in an asking way.
“Well, we all lived on the surface for a while, until most of us got nostalgia and went back under. Then that Serif guy became our lord, so we thought we would have to obey him, but he wanted to do his own thing, so King Asgore stayed in charge. *sigh* thaaaaaat’s politics!” said a nearby bear.
“That’s Grillby’s, the local tavern,” Serif said, pointing out a nearby building.
“YO! SERIF!” a nearby child called.
“And that’s Monster Kid,” he added, pointing to the monster running up to him. The kid fell on his face as he ran, but got himself back up and approached the group.
“I’m assuming he doesn’t have perfect balance… But I’m not going to be insensitive about it,” Daphnes said.
“Nice to see ya, Serif. I thought that was your ship,” Monster Kid said. “Whoa! Who are all these people?”
“These are my friends, Daphnes, Sniper, Engineer, Android 17, Lucario, Kakashi, Olimar, and Krillin,” Serif said. “Now we gotta get going. We have to find something important. Can you tell me where Asgore is?”
“The king? Yeah, he’s just over there,” Monster Kid said. Then the group walked up to where Asgore, Toriel, Frisk, Napstablook, Papyrus, Sans, Undyne, Alphys, and Mettaton were gathered.
“Oh! Uhhh… Hey, Serif, what are you doing in town?” Napstablook asked, trying hard not to be awkward.
“We need to talk to Asgore. In private,” Serif said.
“UNFORTUNATELY I CANNOT ALLOW THAT TO HAPPEN, HUMANS. YOU HAVE YET TO GAIN THE TRUST OF THE FANDOM AND SO I, THE GREAT PAPYRUS, WILL STOP YOU!” Papyrus said.
“I’M HYLIAN! NOW WILL PEOPLE STOP CONFUSING ME FOR A HUMAN WHEN I HAVE EARS THAT AREN’T EVEN CLOSE TO RESEMBLING HUMAN EARS?!” Daphnes roared, enraged that Papyrus didn’t know what he was, and was about to draw his blade, only to get knocked out from behind by Krillin.
“Sorry about him, he can get offended of what he is called instead of what he is.” Krillin took Daphnes inside and put him onto the couch.
“And plus, these guys are with me,” Serif said.
“VERY WELL THEN, SERIF! YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS MAY PASS!” Papyrus said.
“Now, why did you want to talk to me?” Asgore asked.
“So you know that prophecy all Fangea won’t shut up about? Well turns out it’s real, and it’s happening now. We’re looking for the Dark Candles and I think the one you were given long ago is still here,” Serif said.
“Yeah, and turns out, three people are after the candles… We’ve lost three already, but we are not about to lose another one.” Goku said.
“I see… Well, I had the candle at my castle for a while, but I gave it to Alphys for her research,” Asgore said.
“Do you know where Alphys kept it at all?” Android 17 said.
“Well if Alphys still has the candle, it would be in her lab in Hotland,” Serif said.
“Except that she once gave it to me to use as a prop for my show,” Mettaton said.
“Well then where is it now?” Engie said.
“I gave it signed to one of my fans, a very deserving Temmie,” Mettaton said.
Daphnes was starting to regain consciousness, and got off the couch. “And where’d they go exactly?” Daphnes asked, overhearing everyone talking in his sleep, and getting up to hearing the conversation.
“oh hey sleepyhead, have any mad dreams?” Sans asked before Papyrus started screaming.
“No, but I was overhearing your conversation.” Daphnes grabbed onto his scabbard, and put it onto his back, whilst also grabbing his shield, and put it on his back as well. “Sorry for making a giant fuss about who I am… But even still, don’t call me human again, please.” Daphnes grabbed almost all of his gear, except for a piece of food that Toriel set in the kitchen.
“You gave it to a Temmie?” Serif said to Mettaton.
“Yes… why?” the robot responded.
”Then where is this ‘Temmie’ exactly?” Daphnes asked Mettaton.
“I’d assume in Temmie village with the other Temmies,” Mettaton said.
“Serif, can you at least get us there quickly, since… I have no idea how to actually get there,” Daphnes said.
“Sure can! It’s in Waterfall. Follow me,” Serif said.
Then he led the group through a massive swamp with boardwalks over most of the water. On the way in, they passed a waterfall when Daphnes got knocked down by a falling rock, only to teleport back up and start flying instead.
“How are rocks that strong to knock me down like-... nevermind,” Daphnes said. Serif then showed those who couldn’t fly how to use bridge seeds. Daphnes saw a cavern off to the side of where Serif was going. He went down it and saw a quiche under a bench. “What’s with the Quiche?” Daphnes said. He was then overcome with the urge to take care of the Abandoned Quiche. “Well, whoever made this wasn’t able to handle the responsibility,” he said. Taking the quiche with him, he rejoined the group as they went into a cave with a simulacrum of the night sky on the ceiling.
“The entire underground’s now enchanted with a rising sun, moon and even weather, courtesy Kid Icarus, more specifically Palutena,” Serif said.
“Wow... angels, am I right?” Krillin said. “Aw crap, was that racist?”
“I have no idea, Krillin… but let’s not say that to any specific angel...” Daphnes said to Krillin. Then they came to a room with a table on which was some crystallized cheese. “Why is there cheese here? And why is it encased in Crystal? Nevermind, Probably an effect waterfall has on stationary objects for too long,” Daphnes said.
Then the group found Sans. “oh heya kid, wanna take a look in my telescope? it's free for you,” he asked.
“Uhhh, sure,” Krillin said. He looked, and the telescope punched him in the eye.
Krillin Owned Count +1
“Owww! What’s with the telescope man?” Krillin said.
“oh, you didn’t like it? do you want a refund?” Sans said.
“Uhhhh dude, you said it was free,” Serif said.
“exactly,” Sans said. The group then left Sans and went into a long corridor occupied by a certain Onionsan.
“Oh hi Serif, didja hear? They enlarged my room and gave me an outlet to the ocean! It comes out in some place called Hyrule! And that means I don’t have to sit down all the time and I can hang out in the underground I love! Anyways, enjoy your visit to Waterfallllllllll...” Onionsan said.
“We will, but we hope you have a good day, sir. Also, it’s nice to know that we can get the best of both worlds in this regard,” Daphnes said. They then came to a room with a statue covered by an umbrella that played music, a piano, and two monsters, named Lemon Bread and Shyren. “Is there anything else we need to know about waterfall from here on out? Also, why did one of them look… unnatural? On second thought I don’t want to know, probably insensitive,” Daphnes said.
“We’re flying from here. The cave’s open enough,” Serif said, taking flight with his rocket boots. The others followed as best they could over a dump and a snail farm, landing in an area with glowing blue trees.
“So where is the place?” Engie said.
“Through here,” Serif said, walking through a wall.
“Is he bloody serious on this one?” Sniper said.
“We can’t doubt him now, we might as well take a leap of faith,” Android 17 said.
Then the group followed Serif through the wall into a most strange village. It was populated by dog-like creatures that from what Daphnes could figure out were called Temmies. Serif went to a hole in the wall with several signs advertising something called the tem shop, and Daphnes wanted to know more.
“hOI! welcom to... da TEM SHOP!!!” The temmie inside said.
“Do you know where a lightless candle would be at good sir?” Daphnes asked the Temmie who owned the Tem Shop.
“yaya, But… who ask? HUH?!?!? Why u need know dat? Buyer confidentiality verrrry impor!” The Temmie replied.
“Because We’re trying to stop something evil from emerging, sir… er, Madam… This is confusing,” Daphnes said, his eyes almost about to cross in on themselves.
“Lord think buyer migh be bad news, wants to stop! Tem help lord?” Serif said.
“Hmmm… ONLY COS’ U LORD!!!” Temmie said. “Tem sell candl 2 tringl boi! Tringl pay lots muns! Now tem go 2 gradskul! YAYA!!!”
“Looks like Cipher got to the candle first… again. We’re down 0-4, and they’re one step closer to their goals… We need to find out who or what Dimentio, Flowey, and Cipher serve under before the ritual’s complete,” Daphnes said.
“There aren’t many ways out of the underground, and it’s too narrow to fly a ship through. If I have Asgore make a certain announcement and we hurry we can catch them!” Serif said, pulling out his phone. “Asgore! I need you to enact a partial closure of barrier gate! Don’t let anyone leave without being searched for the candle! But only take the candle! Leave everything else alone! If you find the candle or someone who looks like a triangle tell me!” Serif then hung up as the announcement was noised throughout the underground.
“Smart thinking on your part Serif, now all we need to do is get to Bill Cipher before he leaves with the Candle!” Android 17 said, running straight to where he thought Bill might head to.
“The capital. It’s the only reliable way in or out,” Serif said. “And there isn’t a shortcut or secret passage that Sans and I don’t know about. Sans and I will check them all, you go for the capital.” Serif vanished down one of the secret passages. Immediately Daphnes, Android 17, Engineer, Sniper, Krillin, Goku, Olimar, and Lucario all went straight to where the Capital was, and Daphnes saw something he knew only one knows how to use… A Persona? \ 3!!! 2!!! 1, GO!!!!!
Immediately he stopped and saw who the Persona was linked to: A man with bowl-shaped silver hair and gray eyes, wearing what looked similar to a high school uniform, while wearing gray glasses and holding a Katana, whilst fighting Bill Cipher.
“So, why did ya try to stop me, High schooler??” Bill said before the Persona struck him.
“...Like I stated before to another who tried to threaten this world: I’m no mere high schooler. I’ve taken down demons fiercer than you, but not on my own.” The man tried to cut the candle out of Bill’s hands, and he successfully cut off Bill’s arm, but… something wasn’t right… the candle was still floating in mid-air.
“OH NO! MY ARM!! Not! Seriously, you think that would’ve harmed me? I’ve seriously fought a guy who controls time and still won, what makes you think a Katana is able to cut me in half? good workout regiment though!” Bill had his arm reattach itself in place. The man looked surprised when suddenly a flurry of blue spears flew over him.
“That’s the triangle! NGAHHHHHHHH!!!” Undyne said, trying to close into melee but being confused by Bill’s reality-warping attacks.
“HE LOOKS MORE LIKE A DORITO. DORITO, PREPARE TO FACE MY SPECIAL ATTACK!!!” Papyrus said, following Undyne.
“Oh goody, an attack that I won’t take any damage from ‘cuz I know how to beat it,” Bill said, holding still as a blue bone passed through him.
“HMMM… PERHAPS IT’S TIME FOR MY OTHER SPECIAL ATTACK!” Papyrus said, before the man’s Persona, known as Izanagi, stabbed Bill straight in the eye, and ripped it straight out of its socket. Then Asgore noticed something- Bill didn’t have the candle- Flowey did. Toriel and Asgore charged him but were held back by the sudden appearance of a wall of Dimentios as Flowey burrowed away.
“Not this time! DRILL!” Daphnes said, burrowing after Flowey, catching up to him and striking Dimentios, taking damage. Suddenly a rocket hit the ground above Flowey, then a Gaster Blaster was aimed through the hole. But then Flowey was forced to surface as the ground leading up to the gate was too dense. Immediately the man caught up and Flowey threw the candle off the cliff, and he tried to catch it, but it was caught by the real Dimentio, flying up with the Pillar of Autumn. Bill and Flowey teleported into it and the ship flew away before the man said one word.
“PERSONA!” immediately Izanagi tried catching up and ripped off one of the engines, slowing it down, but not enough to stop it from escaping. GAME!!!!! “How’d you do that? The only one I know who could summon a Persona was a thief named Joker, and he’s with a friend of ours at the moment,” Lucario asked the man.
“Whoever this ‘Joker’ is, he’s not the only one to possess the Wildcard ability. My name is Yu Narukami, nice to meet you,” Yu formally introduced himself before bowing in front of them, seeming respectful.
“Yo, I’m Serif,” Serif said, introducing himself.
“17. An honor to meet another ally,” Android 17 said.
“Captain Olimar of the SS Dolphin, at your service.” Olimar saluted him.
“Dell Conagher, but call me Engineer, or Engie if ya want, nice to meet ya,” Engie said.
“Me actual name is Mundy, but I go by Sniper, a pleasure to meet you.” Sniper removed his hat and showed respect to Yu.
“I am known as Lucario, nothing more nothing less… it will be an honor to fight by your side,” Lucario bowed.
“Name’s Krillin, Strongest Human around, Father and Husband. Nice to meet ya!” Krillin shook Yu’s hand.
“My name is Goku, and I’m a Saiyan who’s literally fought gods before, nice to meet ya!” Goku said, being as polite as he could be.
“And I am Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule, and/or ‘The Green Knight’ if you prefer. I don’t want to be called that, but your call.” Daphnes said, before holding his arm, which had been burned during him trying to pierce through the 20 Dimentio’s that blocked him.
“It’s an honor to meet you all, but those Candles are dangerous… We can’t seem to catch a break with these, can we?” Yu asked, before remembering one thing: he knew where a candle was.
Krillin interrupted his train of thought with a question. “Hey guys, doesn’t it take a while for the clouds to block the sun? And do they usually look like that?”
The Pillar of Autumn stopped at a strange area of Fangea.
“Alright! Let’s get this show on the road!” Bill Cipher said.
Dimentio brought out a strange pointed pillar of obsidian, deep black with evil symbols etched into it.
“ROITILOXPE RETSEU ETSI EUQMUIMERG SECILIS ICSIVILBO EN!” Bill began to chant. As he was chanting, the obelisk began to glow.
“Wait, I thought we needed all 8 candles to summon him,” Flowey said. “
We do, but not to issue the call. When we’re finished here today every villain in Fangea will be flocking here to answer," Bill said, then told Dimentio to get out the Dark Candles. Dimento, at Bill’s direction, placed them at four sides of the stone. Bill then chanted some more “TNUS ITAROM TE AIV TE AIV NI ECIPSER!”
“When do we use the blood?” Flowey asked.
“Not for this part,” Bill said. Then, with one last powerful word “EGUE!”, Bill threw his hands up. A beam of dark energy hit the wall of the strange, cavernous room they were in, and space shifted visibly as if Fangea itself was in pain.
In Hotland, more specifically MTT Studios, all was chaos. “Hurry and get those cameras rolling! I simply must report to the people about this!” Mettaton said, as something colossal was forming in the sky, as Mettaton watched:
A sort of alcove for something to fit into. Then all at once, the sun was hidden by thick cloud cover all across Fangea.
Pit saw the clouds and the alcove. “Oh no… we need to gather more fighters!” he said, flying faster. He came to the Wii Fit stage, where Sonic, Wii Fit Trainer, Dark Pit, Lucas, Greninja, and Villager were fighting. “STOP THE MATCH!” he yelled.
“Pit Stain?! What’s the deal?! I was winning!” Dark Pit said.
“Look outside!” Pit said urgently.
“Whoa! What is happening?” Sonic said, surprised.
“Whatever it is, it doesn’t look good. We might need to help with whatever comes of this,” Wii Fit Trainer said, concerned.
“In that case, I’m in,” Lucas said. “So am I... Hope Isabelle won’t mind,” Villager said.
“C’mon! We gotta stop this guy! Whoever it is,” Sonic said. Immediately Palutena beamed up everyone except the two Pits.
“Hey Pittoo, could you do me a favor? I need you to recruit the rest of Smash while I head outside Smash to recruit,” Pit said.
“I told you not to call me that, now why start that now?!” Dark Pit said, angrily at Pit.
“Just hurry! I will be outside Smash! And plus, I told you not to call me Pit Stain!” Pit said, flying away. Immediately Dark pit sighed and started recruiting others, including Robin, Chrom, Corrin, Lucina, Cloud, and Marth, as Pit headed for Super Mario.
Frieza knew the signs but unlike most, he was not afraid. “So… It has begun… GINYU FORCE! We’re going somewhere. Prepare for launch immediately!” He ordered.
“Of course Lord Frieza! Our undying allegiance is with you!” Ginyu said, obeying him, whilst Guldo, Recoome, Jeice, and Burter followed Suit. Then Frieza and the Ginyu Force flew toward the symbol, for they knew that those who had sent the summons were directly underneath. =
“Does it hurt?” Bowser asked Ridley. Both of them had been marked during the first Dark Invasion as soldiers- generals- of the Darkness. Ridley looked as if he had suffered worse during his battles against Samus on Zebes, Tallon IV, Norion, The Pirate Homeworld, and SR-388, so he seemed to have shrugged it off as if it were nothing. Bowser admired him for that- right now, his mark was burning like HECK. Ridley roared his agreement. Then Lord Tirek’s face appeared on the monitor at the back of the hideout they were in. “Ah, Lord Tirek. Perhaps you know what to do since I can hardly take this pain on my shoulder!” Bowser said.
“Yes… ROB told me about the sky, and I have a plan, but you may not like it. I need you to re-enlist in the forming army of darkness, act as though you were loyal but redirect all intelligence here,” Tirek directed. Ridley immediately flew straight to the symbol, trying to fit in as best as he could among all the villains going toward it. Bowser followed, taking Bowser’s airship and family with them.
Fluttershy went back to her house after Derpy had dismissed the Mane 7 for the day, only to hear screaming coming from the upper floors. It sounded like Discord was in immense pain. Immediately Fluttershy ran to see what was the matter. She ran upstairs to find Discord writhing in pain. Upon seeing her, Discord cried out “GET TWILIGHT! HURRY!” Fluttershy ran to get her, but when they came back, Discord was unconscious. 3!!! 2!!! 1, GO!!!!!
“You’re coming with me!” Whoever must have broken the window and knocked out Discord said. He was a strange person, a young Koopa, riding some sort of smiling, one-propellor vehicle. His name, from what Twilight could recall, was Bowser Jr. Bowser Jr. grabbed Discord and made for his clown car, only for Twilight to blast him away from Discord.
“Nopony, or anything for that matter, touches my FRIENDS!” Fluttershy said, throwing the young Prince into a closet, but then finding a wind-up toy at her feet, that proceeded to attack her. Another toy attacked Twilight.
“Sorry, chaos buddy, but my papa needs you for some plan of his and Mr. Tirek’s.” Bowser Jr said, flying away with Discord in the Clown Car. Immediately Twilight flew straight up to him and stopped him before he could escape.
“What exactly do you need Discord for? What is going on with him, and why are you taking him without asking?” Twilight asked him, keeping the Clown Car suspended in mid-air.
“Because papa said he needed to talk to a robot, and I don’t know, but papa’s having the same problem!” Bowser Jr. said, seeing his chance and flying away.
“I should’ve stayed with him, and brought him to you...” Fluttershy said.
“No, Fluttershy… He knew he’d weigh you down, so that way he knew you could’ve got to me faster, and Bowser Jr. wouldn’t be chasing you,” Twilight said.
“Actually, I don’t think he knew about Bowser Jr. He wanted help with this burning mark on his shoulder,” Fluttershy explained.
“Maybe Discord knew… whatever’s happening to the sky is probably something Discord knew about, and he knew that something was coming” Twilight replied.
“We searched all of Equestria, and still no sign of the princess,” A member of the Equestria Royal Guard said to Celestia as he returned to the Canterlot Royal Castle.
“Where could she be? We’ve been relying on the Fangean moon for 5 days now. I'm fine with her having a hobby, but not when it interferes with her royal duties,” Celestia observed. “And I haven’t heard from Palutena in all that time… What is going on?”
“Aunt Celestia, look at the sky,” Cadance said nervously.
“I know, Cadance. It’s been sunny for 5 days.” Celestia said.
“That’s not it, Your Highness, look at the clouds!” Cadance said. Celestia looked out the window and saw the partial seal in the clouds.
“This… Guards! Open Tartarus! I want to see which inmate did this!” Celestia said, walking off, leaving Cadance in the throne room.
Then a letter appeared, and she read it. As she read it, she realized it was from Twilight. “Dear Princess Celestia: It appears that the rumors you have dismissed are indeed true. In this letter are pictures of that of the legendary Green Knight that has recently appeared. While you may be in denial of this, a pony by the name of Derpy Hooves has caught these pictures. Your faithful student: Twilight Sparkle.”
“Lord Beerus, surely you see what is happening, do you not?” Whis said.
“No, and I don’t care. You woke me up,” Beerus said grumpily, Then his staff started to glow.
“Whis, can you get that for me?” Beerus said. Then he grabbed the staff and yelled into it. “I’m not available right now. Come again never!” Then the staff levitated in front of Beerus and projected an image of Grand Zeno. “! GRAND ZENO, SIRE!” Beerus, frightened, got up and bowed, accidentally taking a chunk out of his table.
“I have an assignment for you,” Zeno said. “You are to do everything in your power to assist the green-clad hero. Is that understood?”
“OF COURSE, SIRE. I WILL NOT LET YOU DOWN IN THE SLIGHTEST!” Beerus said.
“Well, that’s a pleasant change of attitude,” Whis said jokingly.
“I believe that your brother should also assist us in this matter, after all, The Green-Clad Knight will need as much help as he can get,” The Grand Priest said, entering the call as well.
“Yay! Two Destroyers actually get to help one another not building an arena!” Zeno said, happily.
Journal of Wholord, 2nd member of the Geek Triumvirate of Earth There was a discussion I needed to have with my dearest friend, about a close protege. “Seraphim… You understand that I never wanted Daphnes to be in this pain correct?” I said.
“I understand this, but even Daphnes must fulfill his destiny within Fangea, Ryton. He was… Never one to defeat him,” Seraphim, Lord of the Geeks in "the real world", responded.
“I see… I hope that this could allow us to see him again one day… Nashi will be eager to see him again… I hope he is starting to learn self-control… I put Delta in there for a reason, to make sure he could eventually learn more of himself… I truly do care about him,” I said.
“Delta… He was a good friend… Daphnes will find his true destiny, whether he knows of it or not,” Seraphim reassured me.
Approaching the old castle was a man. He wore leather armor, tall boots, and a bandana. He carried with him all that he would need for what he was doing: crosses, holy water, axes, and most importantly, a spiked whip, imbued with the power to kill Vampires. His name was Simon Belmont. Simon was here on an important mission: to destroy the vampire who plagued this land, the one his eldest ancestor, Leon Belmont, promised the Belmont Clan would Hunt: Vlad Ţepeş Dracula.
He entered the castle, then destroyed many mummies with well-thrown crosses. Then he ran into a strange individual. A skeleton dressed as a mercenary, flying with rocket boots, using weapons beyond even Simon’s time, obviously from elsewhere in Fangea, blasting away at Dracula’s minions. “You dare defy our Master? Then I shall end your crucible here, undead one!” A skeletal figure cloaked in robes and wielding a scythe said, before summoning thousands at once to strike at this skeleton.
“Try this then. HADOUKEN!” Ryu said, hitting Death, however, it almost did nothing to him, as if he were unaffected, all before getting hit with a whip from behind both Ryu and this Skeleton. Then Simon saw the small yellow creature he knew as Pichu faring poorly against a giant Medusa head, shooting petrifying beams which could’ve turned Pichu to stone if a man with a black and orange cape, white hair, and blade did not step in and stab it through the eyes.
“Alucard. In the name of your father, will you not change your mind?” Death said, to the man who had taken out the Medusa head.
“No. like I have said before, I will keep that promise I made to my mother long ago,” Alucard said.
“You found anything?” Ryu yelled to Serif.
“Not yet… Candle or nay, I’m starting to feel like summoning this castle was a mistake,” Serif replied.
“You clearly do not know what summoning this fortress does, do you? It brings an evil that returns every 100 years back to life. You, sir, have accidentally brought back Dracula… My father,” Alucard said to both Serif and Ryu.
“Well it wasn’t exactly an accident, but we did underestimate this little encounter,” Ryu said.
“And who’s the guy cuddling our Pichu?” Serif said looking at Simon.
“Simon Belmont. A descendant of a friend of mine named Trevor Belmont,” Alucard said.
“He was my great grandfather, and I intend to defeat Dracula here and now like he once defeated him,” Simon said.
“Yeah yeah yeah. Look, I don’t care about some vamp that happens to live here. All I care about is this thing he got a while back, which Daphnes is probably gonna get to first because he went with that Richter guy Dark pit brought to us,” Serif said.
“Richter? Richter Belmont? We have no time to waste, Skeleton, you must learn discipline, and we have to get to where Richter is first!” Alucard said, before he ran straight through the horde that Dracula had summoned, and Simon was fighting them off with Holy Water, Crosses, Axes, Daggers, and his Vampire Killer, while Serif led Ryu and Pichu past through many more corridors, until he saw a horde of Dracula’s forces blown to kingdom come by Demoman.
“We’ve found nothing, but Bill Cipher’s here,” Piccolo said, flying up to Demoman.
“And I heard a floating skeleton talk about three esteemed guests,” Android 17 said, standing next to Piccolo.
“Oh, we got religion maniacs. The host ain’t gonna like that,” Flowey said, attacking Simon and Alucard.
“When was a talking Flower a part of Dracula’s Army?!” Simon asked, utterly flabbergasted at the presence of a talking flower.
“And who the heck is this host?” Serif shouted.
“It would seem my Father is hosting it… isn’t he, Asriel?” Alucard said, smirking.
“Indeed, the count has requested a show, and we aim to please,” Dimentio said, attacking Piccolo, before Piccolo decided to use Hellzone Grenade. They then ran on, colliding with someone in blue and someone in green.
“Daphnes!” Serif said.
“Serif?! Good, we’ve got more allies on our side, I think I finally have a good way of tracking the Candle now… but here’s the catch, it’s all the way at the top of the castle… also, a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Alucard,” Daphnes said.
“Oh! By the way, Serif, we’ve been running from Bill Cipher almost since we came in,” Captain Falcon said.
“Yeah, Dimentio kept dropping mummies on us too,” Serif said.
“And I would love to turn that cursed flower to paint,” Demoman said.
“No. We must focus on the Candle for now, Daphnes, Richter, We’ll be following you, whilst also keeping enemies out of the way. Dracula will be my fight… Richter, Simon, you both will have to help me face Dracula,” Alucard said.
“Uhhh… cool. We’ll just look for that Candle up there while you keep the vamp off us,” Seif said.
“Serif! I just said where it is!!” Daphnes said, pointing to where Dracula was.
“Then let’s go! What are we waiting for?” Captain Falcon said, walking up the stairs.
"Another Human who dares oppose me. You will know the power of the King of Vampires, as all have before!” Dracula said, before throwing Captain Falcon back by launching him straight into a wall, and then throwing fireballs straight in his direction. Captain Falcon dodged but tried to avoid Dracula completely, but Dracula would not have this, and immediately trapped Falcon in a swarm of bats.
“Don’t worry drac, I got the hog team. You nab the clerics,” Bill Cipher said, entering the room. Immediately a whip hit Dracula, and Bill saw that it was no ordinary whip.
“Mess him up,” Bill ordered, as Dracula split into four, before both Simon and Richter both hit him at the exact same time, knocking Dimentio to the ground.
“Belmonts! I should’ve killed you long ago… it will not matter now, as long as I kill one of you, you will not stand a chance!” Dracula started to attack both of the Belmonts at the exact same time. At the same time, Ryu landed a Shoryuken on Flowey, who had moved to intercept Serif and Daphnes. Then, as Captain Falcon tried to punch Dracula “out of the way”, he was hit by a warlock punch.
“Fool. You fight for a lost cause. History will repeat itself,” Ganondorf said, towering over Captain Falcon. Meanwhile, Demoman was besieged by an animated swarm of knives.
“Heh heh, you oafs know nothing of your foe,” Ghirahim, who was controlling the knives, said.
“When did these guys get involved?! I thought it was just those three!” Serif shouted.
“Demon Lord Ghirahim… still second fiddle to Demise, reincarnation or not,” Daphnes said.
“And why not? The Demon King is my master after all,” Ghirahim said before Daphnes teleported past Flowey and started to fight Ghirahim himself clashing his blade against Ghirahim’s, as Simon and Richter got thrown to the wall by Dracula before Alucard appeared in front of his father.
“Like I have said before, father… to destroy you, I will use all I am,” Alucard said.
“Very well then, child… Come and face me, and fall by my hands!” Dracula said as Alucard, Richter, and Simon started to fight him, blade and whip clashing against dark magic. Meanwhile, Ryu blocked a warlock punch from Ganondorf with a focus attack.
“I have an idea! Piccolo, Ryu, Daphnes, Demoman, Falcon, pick a foe and stay on him!” Serif said before Daphnes smirked because he was planning to stay on Ghirahim and face him.
“Where you goin’?” Demoman asked.
“I’m gonna help the Belmonts,” Serif said, charging Dracula from the air with his rocket boots. He flew past Alucard, who was gearing up for another attack.
“Serif, be careful! He is not to be trifled with,” he said as the skeleton flew by.
“LEEEEROOOOOOY JENKINS!!!!!” Serif yelled as he flew straight at Dracula and was disassembled by Dracula’s attack. “Perfect,” he said, his skull hitting the ground. Suddenly many small bulges appeared under Dracula’s clothing, and Dracula felt and acted like somebody had thrown a bucket of tarantulas in his clothes. The bulges then came up out of Dracula’s shirt assembled into a hand holding a black candle, before Dracula used his own bit of sorcery to poison Serif’s very Skeleton, which he had rarely used on any of the opponents he faced. Serif dropped the candle as the spell took effect, saving himself with a sparkling object from his fandom of undertale but letting Flowey grab the candle.
“I GOT IT! LET’S VAMOOSE!” Flowey yelled.
“We apologize, Count Dracula, but we must leave now,” Dimentio said politely.
“I shall lend my assistance to this cause, as we agreed upon before they showed up,” Dracula said. Then the villains teleported into the Pillar of Autumn. Immediately Daphnes started to try and fly after the Pillar of Autumn, only to get thrown to the ground by the thrusters activating, and throwing him back.
“DANG IT! That’s another candle gone!” Serif yelled, kicking a rock.
“We can’t just kick the dust here, we still have another shot to get them,” Richter said.
“He’s right, we need to find the next one,” Simon said.
“Agreed… Let us return to your ship. hopefully, we can get to the base of operations so that way we can strategize,” Alucard said. Then Eddie teleported everyone back to the Heart of Gold.
Geno sat at his abode in Star Road, deep in contemplation. Suddenly there was a knock at his door. Answering it, he admitted Pit to his home. “Ah, Pit, why come here to my abode?” Geno said.
“It’s about the prophecy,” Pit said.
“...I see. So has he returned?” Geno said.
“Not all the way, luckily. But the call has been sent, and almost every villain in Fangea is swarming the Seal place,” Pit informed.
“I see… But who I was mentioning was the Knight himself…” Geno said.
“Oh, Daphnes. Yeah, he’s here!” Pit said. “Will you be coming too?”
“Indeed I will. However, I will need time to recover all my power since the last Dark Invasion has left me drained of most of my power,” Geno said.
“No worries! Lady Palutena or Lord Beerus Should be able to help you recover,” Pit said as Geno was teleported to Beerus’s planet.
Luna had been watching the group’s journey with confidence, but now she was scared. She was desperate, she knew that, but nevertheless, she still had his contact info from the time they had fought together the last time a situation like this was upon them. She turned to Palutena and said “I’m going to make a call. Don’t disturb me for a time.”
“I understand… I’ll go see what Pit’s up to,” Palutena said. Then Luna went into a backroom of Beerus’s dwelling and opened her Discord. Then she typed the address of the only one she knew would have anything to offer.
Then the screen divided into 9 segments, and at the center, the face that all of Equestria hated- Lord Tirek. The other segments were static to avoid surveillance and keep the speakers undercover, with a greek letter in the center so that the right eyes could identify who was speaking, except for the top right, which showed the robot she knew from Smash as R.O.B.
“Why have you called me, your majesty?” Tirek asked, his voice full of spite toward his jailer.
“Indeed, why call us here, so says *static*,” One of the segments, marked Epsilon, said, flashing as it did.
“I did not expect her interference, but our meeting shall continue. As you all know, the prophecy I gave is coming to pass. I have a plan in place, in action as we speak,” Tirek said.
“Well, Tirek, you know when to not allow girls into the party. After all, wasn’t it you who said any can join the cause?” another segment, this one marked Gamma, said.
“Times change… In any case, Luna may be necessary. Celestia has convinced herself that one of Tartarus's inmates is responsible for the overcast weather and the seal in the clouds, and she’s investigating each inmate spontaneously,” Tirek said.
“Can’t you hire a certain Umbra Witch to keep her preoccupied? Hint Hint,” Gamma said.
“Excellent idea, Gamma. Beta, you have contact with said witch, can you hire her?” Tirek said. A roar from another screen sounded affirmative.
“I actually believe I should, as Beta will be needed where he is,” R.O.B, who was the only face Luna could see, said.
“Smart move, after all, The Entity of Shadows won’t suspect a robot to go in the place of that of one of my commanders. *Static* Can you get over here?” Gamma said before Luna heard something.
“OOah! Must’ve dozed off for a bit there, Wooh, getting up is such exhausting work! Anyway, do you need me to do anything, Sir?” Another person on Gamma's end said.
“Can you go and… greet the intruders in our little abode? I have to go and see if the country our forces are about to open fire on, which is owned by Flowey is still in a stalemate,” Gamma said.
“While that is happening, Alpha, do you have the MDM ready?” Tirek asked.
“Indeed, There will be plenty of booms for everyone! And booms will fill up their hearts! And then... Andthenandthenandthenandthen… We’ll be enjoying the silence of those loyal to the Dark One!” The segment labeled Alpha said, and Luna could almost feel the glee of the speaker through the screen.
“Actually, I intend to fire it at Canterlot and frame Bill Cipher, a known General of the Enemy and probably the one who started this mess,” Tirek said.
“Oh… well even still, CIPHER WILL KNOW THE TASTE OF THE MUSTARD OF DOOM! I HAVE CHORTLES!” Alpha said.
“The device will take time to reach its destination, so says *static*,” Delta said.
“Hence, the Umbra Witch, and our alicorn,” Tirek said.
“In which case, if it fails, can we resort to mass invasion if the plan goes awry? *Static* has been wanting to get that of my forces to invade that of Frieza Planet 323 for a long time now, and I want to keep my word on to devouring the Frieza Force’s Souls, they might be more than enough to strengthen them right up!” Gamma says, while also drinking something that Luna saw looked almost like a coffee mug that looked like his face.
“Tirek? Is that who I think that is? Drinking a coffee mug that looks exactly like his face, hungers on souls, loves to make lives miserable while making his own hilarious?” Luna asked.
“No, Luna, I’m the guy who delivers the mail, and I came to deliver a message from me to you. Don’t spoil any story elements!” Gamma said.
Wait a minute! How can Luna see that mug? Tirek explicitly made all undercover screens incognito!
“Not my issue, 30 boy, but maybe you shouldn’t have made mine be able to move as much as it does in chapter 23 of-”
SHHHHHHHHH!!!!! They don’t know that yet!
“Oh, my bad. But it’s awfully cute when you're flustered like that, Sir.”
Right, now can you put the 4th wall back so we can get on with our story?
“Fine, but remember, It’s never gonna be the same if you delete this within posting!”
Alright fine, we’ll keep it. But let’s get on with this.
“Alright, alright, You get back to the meeting.”
Then the 4th wall was repaired and I continued with the story.
“Alpha, how soon can you launch that missile?” Tirek said.
“It will be ready to fire when that of the sun rises in 12 hours!” Another near alpha said.
“We will fire it when Celestia least expects that of the pint of disruption to fire!” The part of the screen labelled Alpha said.
“Ooooh, are you gonna shoot something at Celestia?” A small filly who Luna knew as Cozy Glow said from Tirek’s portion of the screen.
“Tirek, when was *static* with you?” Gamma said.
“Celestia imprisoned her with me because she tried to take over Equestria,” Tirek said.
“Oh sure, you get thrown into the Underworld and get forgotten by society, how completely expected from one-off acts,” Gamma said.
“Actually I believe it would be best if we were to send this filly out with you, Gamma. I know you know of a way in and out of Tartarus,” Tirek said.
“So you expect me to open a way to where you are and drag you straight out? You do realize that it takes time to set them up, right?” Gamma said.
“At ease, I can take over babysitting for you upon your escape’s completion, so says *static*,” the part of the screen labeled Epsilon said.
“Very well. You all know your tasks, make haste. This Light Cancer meeting is adjourned,” Tirek then turned off all monitors in his room. The conversion complete, Luna went out to tell Palutena of her errand, then set off for Equestria.
POV: Captain Wilson, Geek Lord of Harry Potter, Member 3 of Geek Club triumvarate. I had seen Professor Pig into my chamber. “So… Why did you let him escape? Why did he escape your grasp?” I asked, knowing what had happened but not the details.
“He got lucky… His partners were underestimated… Both the angel and the Skeleton Merc,” Professor Pig said.
“...Angel? Your report did not state of any angel, good Professor… Was your report not completed when you sent it?” I said, surprised at this new piece of information.
“...No, I gave only the majority of the report because I thought nothing of the angel,” Professor Pig said.
“What did the angel look like? Because if this angel is who I think it is, all fandoms are in danger… if he begins his rampage,” I said, fearing the worst.
“Brown spiky looking hair, blue eyes, white wings, a white chiton, sandals… etc,” My friend responded.
“You fool! Daphnes is now in that of Fangea! The Place where Seraph gained her power to become Geek Lord millennia ago! We’re doomed if he rampages there. Seraph was only able to stay there for mere hours, due to Fangea’s power being staggering compared to a hypernova here!” I said, fearing for all worlds and trying rapidly to come up with a plan. We had banished Daphnes because he hated the world, took fandoms too seriously, and had grown too powerful for Earth to contain. We tried to banish him to a world where fandoms held no power so that his growth would cease. But now, with him in Fangea, within weeks he would become strong enough to destroy the entire universe that Earth resides in with just a thought!
“It will not happen again! Forgive me!” Professor Pig said, alarmed.
“I’m sorry Professor… Just call me Captain Wilson next time, and I shouldn’t have lost my calm, just… continue your duties for today, just give me time to calm down,” I said, dismissing him
“Did you hear that?” Ichigo said to Rukia. The pair had been entrusted to guard the Soul King’s castle in his absence, with a special influence on keeping his relic collection safe from any intruder. However, Ichigo had gone stir-crazy and had brought Rukia to the roof of the Palace for something to do.
“No, I didn’t. Now let’s return to where we are supposed to be,” Rukia said testily.
“You would think SOMEONE would try to invade the Soul King’s Palace, but no, we get to wait here for who knows how long all because his majesty got paranoid! What’s he even hiding down there?” Ichigo said, somewhat mad at his wasted time.
“Patience, Ichigo… Even you must know that this is no mere superstition, The artifact we’re guarding could be stolen by anyone, and I’ve heard 5 of them are already in the hands of-” Rukia replied, holding her Zanpakuto, before something was about to land… a giant ball approximately 150 meters long.
3!!! 2!!! 1, GO!!!!!
“HEY! YOU’RE NOT PERMITTED TO LAND HERE!” Ichigo yelled at the Heart of Gold. Immediately Rukia ran and jumped on to the very top of The Heart of Gold. There she found Daphnes on the ship’s roof.
“What’s happening up there?” Kakashi asked, opening the hatch. “I’m assuming you’re a Soul Reaper," Daphnes said. "Ms...”
“Kuchiki. Rukia Kuchiki, why are you landing here?” Rukia asked.
“The Lightless Candles. We’re trying to get them to stop this Entity of Shadows’ return… We don’t have any yet… I hope that can change,” Daphnes said.
“WHAT ARE YOU DOING ON MY SHIP!!!” Serif said, making his voice sound like a certain ogre. Immediately Rukia readied something.
“Bakudō # 1. Sai!!” Rukia shouted, having Serif paralyzed immediately, before he could even dodge.
“Don’t worry, my undead friend, I have you covered,” Medic said, Ubercharging him to give him the power to resist Rukia’s attack. Kakashi then threw a barrage of Kunai at Rukia, before she cut them all in half with one slice from her Zanpakuto. Immediately Daphnes snapped his fingers and lightning struck the Palace of the Soul King, not damaging it, but keeping everyone silent.
“Are we done fighting?! If so, We need the candle, please,” Daphnes said, before seeing something with a green stem, white face, and yellow petals via x-ray vision tunneling around the castle. Samus could see it too, so she prepared a charge shot, but was waylaid by Ichigo. Alucard then stunned Ichigo while Roy attacked Rukia. Immediately Rukia countered Roy’s strike with a simple parry of her blade, keeping Roy at a distance. Then Rukia was caught off guard by Wii Fit Trainer, having recovered fully from Rukia’s earlier attacks with Deep Breathing. Mettaton then knocked Ichigo back onto the roof of the castle, before Daphnes snapped his fingers again, and lightning struck Ichigo on accident.
“Alright, NOW YOU’RE IN FOR IT!” Ichigo said, trying to charge Daphnes with Zangetsu, before Daphnes blocked with his own blade, not fighting Ichigo and keeping his calm, because if he were to get aggressive, he would kill him. Immediately Ichigo activated Bankai, and fought Daphnes until he was pushed to going onto defense. Daphnes immediately struck one of Ichigo’s pressure points near his neck, trying to keep him out of the fight for as long as he can, but Ichigo was already pushing Daphnes to his limits.
“Stop this! You’re going to kill yourself if you keep striking! I Don’t want to fight you!” Daphnes said, kicking Ichigo square in the chest and having Ichigo fly back a bit, before trying to create a defensive barrier around himself. Immediately Ichigo saw this, and cut Daphnes’s right arm clean off, and a dark substance was dripping from it, which Ichigo and Rukia both saw, and stopped fighting. Daphnes was holding his missing arm, and was terrified.
“Daphnes, I am running diagnostics on how long until the amount of malice within your body takes you over,” Delta said, before Daphnes tried to stop his bleeding whilst scared out of his mind, only for his eyes to go bloodshot and glow yellow.
“We must be brief. Eddie, I am sending you calculations of how long Daphnes has until he gets taken over by his malice form. If we can stop this before he goes into a rampage, he will be safe. I detect we have 3 minutes until then,” Delta said, as Daphnes growled in pain, trying to keep himself in control as fangs protruded from his mouth. Immediately Rukia knocked out Daphnes, and reattached his arm to him. Immediately Daphnes screamed in pain, sending a tremor through not just Soul Society, but through Hueco Mundo as well…
“Please, you must calm yourself, if you do not, you will only do more damage to yourself,” Rukia said, calmly. Eventually Daphnes started to calm down, while also holding his shoulder, before spotting commotion in the lower layers of the castle.
“Eddie, can you teleport us down there?” Samus asked frantically.
“How many of ya?” Eddie asked.
“The nine of us,” Wii Fit said.
“Teleporting 9 individuals to Soul King Palace Dungeons,” Delta said. But upon the teleport finishing, they discovered that Daphnes wasn’t with them- Ichigo was.
“What the- how did you get warped and not Daphnes!?” Serif asked to no one in particular, flabbergasted.
“Not my problem, as long as I stop your whole gang from doing your robbery!” Ichigo said.
“You actually think that we’re with skull boy? Adorable,” Flowey said, appearing behind the group. Immediately Ichigo cut straight at Flowey with one move known as Getsuga Tenshou, but Flowey dodged. Then a ki blast hit Ichigo from behind.
“It seems you Monkeys never learn. Harbinger of Death or not, you’re still weak compared to me,” Frieza said, holding the candle. Then he was hit in the face by a soccer ball from Wii Fit Trainer. “YOU DARE TO HIT ME IN THE FACE, SCUM?! I WILL ERASE YOU FROM THIS WORLD” Frieza said, enraged.
“That’s a rather harsh threat,” Wii Fit said in response.
“Frieza! I’m open! Pass it to me!” Bill Cipher said, dressed as a football player. Frieza instead passed it to Dimentio, who caught it with his magic.
“I am not one to trifle with your moronic games, now stop toying around with them and then we’ll be taking our leave,” Frieza said. Dimentio then passed it to Bill, who was closer to the Pillar of Autumn, using a duplicate to distract Medic.
“Well, I want to say that you’re being clever, but you really are just using cloning aren’t you?” Medic said.
“Of sorts. It is rather clever,” Dimentio said. Immediately Ichigo cut off Frieza’s Tail, making him even more enraged. Ichigo then turned and got past Roy’s parries for a hit on the fire sword wielder. Serif then fired a chaos buster charge shot that trophied Ichigo. Nearer to where the candle had dropped from Frieza’s grasp when the soccer ball hit, Mettaton was fighting Dracula.
“Attracted to my legs, vampire?” Mettaton said.
“You are just as naïve as you are idiotic.” Dracula said, blasting mettaton back with a fireball.
“I guess not. Oh well.” Mettaton replied, turning to his normal body.
“Now try to dent me.” Mettaton said, before Dracula had him thrown upward, and then further away from the candle. Roy then joined the fray by trying to duck under Dracula to try and grab the candle, But immediately, Ganondorf caught the candle from behind without even looking. Alucard tried to get to Dracula, but was blocked by Bill Cipher’s attacks. Samus then fired a charge shot that trophied Ganondorf, but Alucard was trophied by Frieza, who was sadistically smiling whilst holding Alucard’s head.
Immediately something glowed from Ganondorf’s left hand, and immediately trophy holding him was broken, and he immediately trophied Samus with one flame choke. Suddenly an arrow hit Ganondorf from behind. Immediately he glared in the direction of where it fired.
“About time you showed up!” Serif said as Daphnes and Rukia entered.
“Sorry we’re late, still had been left on the roof, because Eddie got confused because he thought it would’ve been easy to send 9 people. Rukia’s to thank for me getting down here,” Daphnes said, before clashing blades with Ganondorf, holding him back with the Lord Sword, and pushing him back bit by bit. Suddenly vines lashed under Ganondorf’s feet, and a burrowing sound was heard, and the candle was gone.
“Not again! This is our 6th wild goose chase… If this keeps happening, I don’t think we can stop him!” Daphnes said, before almost stabbing Ganondorf’s chest.
“Another one down!” Bill said, flying away in the Pillar of Autumn.
“Are you sure about that?” Ichigo, who had jumped on the Pillar of Autumn, said.
“WHAT?! How did you get on here?!” Bill said, surprised.
“Let’s just say I had a bit of help,” Ichigo said, before Kisuke Urahara, who had boarded next to him, smirked.
Immediately Ichigo stabbed another one of the thrusters on the Pillar of Autumn, whilst also cutting it off.
“Well then, PREPARE TO DIE!!!” Flowey attacked Ichigo’s soul, before Ichigo just cut through the Vines, because he was already a soul at the beginning of the fight.
“...Crap,” Flowey said, realizing his mistake. Kisuke then pushed Bill aside with just the handle of his Zanpakuto, and grabbed the candle. Then he and Ichigo jumped out, holding the candle.
“About time we got one. If this kept happening where one was just in reach but got yanked away, I would’ve thrown something out a window,” Daphnes said, putting away his sword.
“Count yourself lucky for one day. I informed Ichigo who you are after I freed him from his trophied state,” Kisuke said, putting away his Zanpakuto.
“So we got a candle. Does that mean they can’t do the ritual anymore?” Roy asked.
“If so, then they’d need the power of another to bring him back. Bill on the other hand didn’t think ahead, did he?” Kisuke said, removing his straw hat
“Might as well head back to Luna and tell her the good news,” Serif said.
“Agreed. Now let’s just hope that my right arm doesn’t get cut off again by anyone else,” Daphnes said, his bones of his right arm re-snapping back into place. The group then flew back to Beerus’s planet.
“Ah, you have the waking, Now then… let us begin the planning of Celestia’s fury,” A voice said. Discord opened his eyes. He was tied to a chair facing Tirek, Cozy Glow, and a screen showing a green person with glasses with swirls on the lenses and a red cloak, who Discord could only imagine was Fawful.
“What do you want?” Discord said, disgruntled.
“We know you know a way in and out of Tartarus,” Cozy said. “And we have ways of making you talk.”
“It would be pointless though, because if I recall there is someone else in your acquaintance who knows exactly what I do,” Discord argued.
“Indeed, however, Hades does not know the intricacies of the portal connecting Tartarus to Equestria, and you do,” Tirek said.
“And why would you need to know that?” Discord said, showing his refusal to cooperate.
“Celestia’s conducting random searches on Tartarus inmates. If she discovers what I have set up here, then the only chance we have against history repeating itself is lost,” Tirek explained.
“So?” Discord said.
“In order to prevent Celestia from finding us, I had Fawful prepare a magic disruptor missile to fire upon Canterlot,” Tirek said.
“What?! No! I won’t allow it!” Discord said, alarmed at the possibility of a magic blackout across Canterlot.
“Oh, how saddening, the Draconequus wants to keep the job of booms from beginning,” Fawful said in gleeful anticipation of the missile’s impact.
“However,” Tirek said, continuing, “It may not be necessary. If you can discover the exact workings of the portal and temporarily disable it, then we will not need to fire the missile.”
“Ugh, fine.” Discord decided to check if the portal was able to be shut. He decided to shut it for a good amount of time, But he was detected!
(Radiarc Sorrow) Celestia had been having a good day, and there was only one thing left to do.
“As much as I don’t like to do this, it’s necessary,” She said to Cadance, who stood next to her.
“Celestia, wait! What if there’s more to this than we thought? I recently saw a letter sent by Twilight, it says that the Green Knight is in Fangea, and the pictures were taken by a pony named Derpy Hooves,” Cadance said, revealing the photos directly in front of Celestia.
“Fabricated,” Celestia said. “And in any case, have a promise to fulfill for our citizens.” Celesia then tried to open the portal to Tartarus, but found that it would not open. “DISCORD!” Celestia shouted.
“Well it’s not my fault that you’re in permanent denial, Celestia. And those photos aren’t fabricated. They’re the real thing. Besides, some certain ponies, and people want to meet with you,” Discord, who was nearby, said. Immediately he vanished and Viridi showed herself.
“Forgive my intrusion Celestia, but you’re being rather harsh with your people. Besides, I’ve seen the Knight for myself. And whilst you haven’t seen the signs for what they are, you’re seeing what’s wrong with the sky, correct?” she said.
“And why, pray tell, bring this up now?” Celestia asked, raising an eyebrow.
“Turns out, it’s not from the folks in Tartarus. The Entity of Shadows truly is returning. I don’t care if you won’t see the signs for what you are, but your citizens will soon learn of what it is. Don’t think it’s insignificant, because you may accidentally do something wrong,” Viridi said, before readying a reflect just to prepare herself against Celestia’s blast of magic. Immediately Cadence looked at Viridi and sighed.
“I believe her. I’m sorry Celestia, but even you can’t be oblivious to the signs. He truly is returning, and I’m going to side with the right people and ponies,” Cadence walked up to Viridi in trust, before the Goddess of Light descended from a beam of light that was in front of Viridi.
“All of you, LEAVE! I have something very important to do. Now, where is that Draconequus?” Celestia said.
“You’re not touching him, I don’t care if you’re Royalty or not, He’s doing the right thing,” Palutena said, readying herself against her friend, Aegis and Staff in hand, tears forming in her eyes.
“I just want him to explain why he was near the portal,” Celestia said.
“I think the portal shouldn’t be working,” someone said.
(Let's Dance, Boys) “Let’s just end this quickly, darling,” Bayonetta came into the room almost out of the blue, firing on the group collectively, but mostly Celestia.
“What is the meaning of this?!” Celestia screamed.
“That’s no way to talk to a lady,” Bayonetta said. Immediately Celestia fired a magic blast at Bayonetta, only for her to dodge by turning into bats. Then Shining Armor tried to contain the situation with his own magic. “Cheeky,” Bayonetta said, avoiding. “I believe you have something to be getting on with, darling?” She said to Discord.
“Thank you Cereza, Now if I can, I’ll explain myself-” Discord started.
“YOU WILL NOT TOUCH TARTARUS!” Celestia screamed, firing a containing bolt at Discord. “AND I THOUGHT YOU HAD REFORMED!” Celestia screamed. Palutena put a reflect in front of Discord, shielding him from the blast.
“Guess it’s back to being a statue for you,” Celestia said.
“You won’t do that again, I know you all too well!” Discord said, terrified of the prospect.
“If it meant protecting my ponies, I would in a heartbeat,” Celestia responded
“Not if I can help it,” Bayonetta said, pulling out a communicator. “Fire at will!” She said through it. Then she switched the channel and said through it “You had better be on your way, she’s being awfully cheeky”
“THIS MISSILE IS FULL OF FURY!!” Fawful said, readying the missile.
“Is it ready yet?” Bowser said.
“It’s ready to go!” A Goomba on a scaffold said.
“Well then… FIRE!” Cozy screamed. The missile then was fired, but something else was going to reach Canterlot first…
“Are you done?” Celestia said. She had placed everyone in a restraining field.
(Meta knight's Revenge) Someone said, slashing at Celestia with a familiar yellow sword.
“META KNIGHT?!?! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!?!” Celestia yelled.
“Assisting,” the swordsman from Dreamland said.
“Right on time, Meta Knight, now dance,” Bayonetta said. Meta Knight was all over Celestia, Slashing and stabbing everywhere he could reach.
"GET OUT OF MY CASTLE!" Celestia tried to charge a spell, but Meta Knight interrupted with dialogue.
“Before you try anything, know that I have a castle too. Here it is,” He said, summoning the Halberd.
“Well, uh, your majesty, if they all leave now, could they do what they’ve been doing?” Shining Armor asked. Celestia didn’t get to answer because something big hit Canterlot and disabled all magic across the city. Immediately Palutena, Bayonetta, Viridi, Cadence, and Discord were all freed from Celestia’s grasp.
“Enough Celestia! The signs are perfectly clear, we’ve seen the signs in the past!” Palutena said.
“Wha- THE MAGIC! WHAT’S HAPPENED?!?!” Celestia said.
“It’s been disabled, Celestia. Shouldn’t that have been obvious enough?” Discord said. Cadance noticed something, a ship-two ships, flying toward Canterlot.
(Flowering Night) Within the confines of an ancient mansion, which despite its age, was in peak perfect condition… due to the fact that at night, a vampire known as Remilia Scarlet lived within the mansion, with her sister Flandre, her head maid, Sakuya Izayoi, and many others… However, this would not permanently last. A hole was blown into the side of the Mansion, and Bill Cipher flew straight threw the hole with Daphnes, Remilia, Flandre, Sakuya, Serif, Impa, Samus, Olimar, Alucard, Ike, Joker and Yu chasing him, whilst Bill held the Lightless Candle.
“NANANANANANA!!!! YOU CAN’T CATCH ME!!!” Bill said, avoiding attacks from the Party, all before Sakuya stopped time and used her ability to throw her mistress, Remilia, directly at Bill, in which she ripped out Bill’s eye from its socket. “HEY!!! THAT TAKES A LOT TO GROW BACK!” He yelled, dropping the candle. Dimentio caught it, and put distance between him and Remilia, who was attacked by Dracula. All before Remilia shot thousands of blasts directly at Dimenito, and Flandre surrounding Dimentio in a maze of insta kill shots.
“Try to get yourself out of this maze, Because this one can be a bit tight and scary... And if you touch the edge you’ll- well… don’t touch the edge, okay?! That’s part of the game!” Flandre said, flying above Dimentio, as she was laughing child like as she watched as Dimentio squirmed.
“Clever girl… It would seem your sister is quite smarter than she lets on. However, she is nothing compared to my power.” Dracula blasted fireballs at Flandre, before Talismen were thrown, burning Dracula’s arm, while he vanished and saw where it came from: a girl with black hair, red and white kimono, An orb with the symbol of Yin Yang on it floating around her, and a Red Bow with a white trim.
“One thing you never do is threaten my friends… My allies, and my family,” Remilia said, landing on the ground, whilst nodding to the girl named Reimu.
“Looking for something?” Frieza said, holding the Candle.
“FRIEZA!!!!!” Daphnes said, punching him in the stomach. Frieza dropped the candle, but it was caught in midair by Ridley, who flew into the Pillar of Autumn.
“Not this time!” Serif said, throwing a grenade at the ship. This damaged it so that the ship could not use warp drive. The Pillar of Autumn beamed everyone up and flew away, but this time the Heart of Gold could pursue.
“DO NOT LOSE THEM THIS TIME! WE NEED TO STOP THEM NOW!” Daphnes said.
“Eddie, FLOOR IT!” Serif said.
“Gotcha!” Eddie said, and the Heart of Gold took off as fast as it could.
(A Good Man - Doctor Who) The Mane 6, along with Derpy, were preparing to go to Celestia when the magic shutdown occurred. “What just happened?! Equestria hasn’t had this much magic removed from it since the… First Dark Invasion, OF COURSE! That’s how someone’s disrupted so much magic at once!” Twilight said, not being able to use her magic once she stepped into Canterlot. Immediately the Seven ran straight to Celestia’s Throne Room, only to see something flying after a Colossal Ship, which was the size of the 13th Colossus from the Forbidden Lands: Phalanx. Immediately Twilight flew straight to Celestia’s Castle, where she entered into the throne room. Immediately the remainder of the Mane 6 entered into the throne room, to see it a mess and Celestia fuming.
“Celestia look at this!” Derpy said, trying to show Celestia the images.
“No! I refuse to suffer any more of this nonsense! Out of my throne room! NOW!” Celestia said.
“No! We won’t leave you! Now just start listening!” Fluttershy said.
“She’s right, Celestia… You need to listen to her,” Applejack said.
“Twilight, please, I’m not ignoring the signs, I’m just trying to keep all in Equestria safe and happy. That is why I don’t want anyone to know that Tirek was right. It could-”
(Underground Theme Kid Icarus SSBB Remix) “ATTENTION EQUESTRIA!” Pit yelled through a megaphone, flying into that land with Geno, Isabelle, Yoshi, Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Rosalina, Luma, Incineroar, Robin, Corrin, Duck Hunt, Piranha Plant, and Chrom. “ALL FANDOMS ARE IN DANGER, THE PROPHECY IS BEING FULFILLED! IF YOU WANT TO PREVENT THIS, WE’LL NEED AS MANY WHO ARE ABLE TO FIGHT JOIN US AGAINST HIS RETURN!” he said.
“SHOOT THAT ANGEL DOWN!” Celestia said. Magic lasers were fired at Pit.
“Whoa! Why’re they shooting at us?” he said. “They must not want anyone knowing,” Geno said.
“I guess we’ll just be going to Beerus’s planet.” Palutena said. She and the others involved in the brief scuffle against Celestia, along with others of Luna’s agents, were in the Halberd, flying away from Canterlot. “No, we have to get in there. I know the last candle’s in Celestia’s possession.” Luna said. “Perhaps,” Kakashi said, entering the room they were in, “it would be best to send agents in our place. Don’t worry, I’ve already picked them out. They’re on their way there as we speak.”
(Turtle and Toad Death Battle) “And I could see why, they might’ve been hurt if we hadn’t got them all,” Celestia turned to see four ninjas, each with a Konoha headband, standing in the now broken window.
3!!!! 2!!!! 1, GO!!!!!!
“Let’s make this quick,” one said, running at Celestia. “Leaf Gale!” he yelled, performing a sweeping kick to knock Celestia on the ground. “Great! I got the candle!” Another said, running for a hallway at the end of the room. Celestia struck him, only to discover she had hit nothing. Then three of that same ninja made a beeline for the hallway that led to the relic room.
“Oh my gosh, that is awesome!” Rainbow Dash said, in awe of these ninjas’ skills.
“Enough fooling around Naruto!” another of the ninjas yelled at the three. Then he threw a shuriken at Celestia, who thought she had dodged but was hit by a shuriken concealed in the first’s shadow. Immediately something burst through another window and collapsed directly in front of Celestia, wearing a Green Tunic of Hylian origin, A red cape, brown hair, and Hylian like ears.
“Oww... okay, I’m in at least… Now let’s see if I can find the last Candle before Bill can find it and- I’m in front of Celestia herself, aren’t I?” He said, as he picked himself up and faced Celestia in person.
“Forgive my intrusion, Your Majesty… I am Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule I, Or Zeldalord, or the Green Knight, or just Daphnes if you prefer,” He said, bowing toward her majesty in her glory, being as respectful as he could be.
“What- the- What are you doing here!? Wait, you know what, I don’t care! BEGONE!” Celestia said, highly annoyed at Daphnes’s intrusion.
“Simple- WE’RE TAKING THE CANDLE!” Serif yelled.
“I don’t think so. We were told to let no one have it except Master Kakashi!” The last ninja, a girl, said.
“wow, this is kinda getting too hot to CANDLE!” Sans said.
“THAT… Actually sounds like something Pinkie would say,” Rainbow Dash said in response to Sans’s pun.
“Wait, Master Kakashi? He’s one of our friends!” Wii Fit Trainer said.
“Yeah! So, could you, ya know, help us find it?” Sonic asked.
“Well, if you say you’re with Master Kakashi then, SURE!” Naruto said.
“Naruto! Don’t be so quick to trust!” Sasuke said.
“You refer to Kakashi Hatake, Correct?” Daphnes asked Naruto and Sasuke
“Yep!” Naruto said.
“ALL OF YOU, LEAVE THIS INSTANT!” Celestia roared in anger, before firing magic sun lasers at everyone.
“the hostility is WAXING strong, huh,” Sans said. Immediately Daphnes brought out his blade, and fired a skyward strike directly at Celestia, that was dodged, before the Halberd came back into view. hr]
(Hyrule Warriors Mysterious) “Sweetie, do you hear that?” Scootaloo asked. The Cutie Mark Crusaders had been watching from their new treehouse in Canterlot.
“Definitely hear it… But who is that?” Sweetie Belle responded.
“We should go check it out!” Apple Bloom said. They made their way to the Royal Castle, then saw the parked and opened Heart of Gold.
“There might be something useful inside that big white ball. Let’s see if there is,” Scootaloo said
“I would highly recommend you stay where you are. This ship is currently owned by one known as Serif the Skeleton,” Delta said to them, attached to the dashboard.
“Let’s go in!” Scootaloo said, running in and seeing the Lightless Candle the crew had won at Soul Society casually placed on the bridge table.
“We should take that to Applejack. It looks dangerous,” Apple Bloom said.
“That would be rather unwise, considering that what you’re taking is of importance to Luna’s Mission,” Delta said, informing the CMC. Not understanding Delta’s long words, they grabbed the candle.
“HEY! HANDS OFF THE ‘DISE!” Eddie said, but too late- the CMC had run away from the ship and through the castle.
“We need to find Applejack, or one of her friends. They’ll know what to do. YOO-HOO! APPLEJACK!” Apple Bloom said.
“RARITY!” Sweetie Belle called.
“RAINBOW DASH! Where could they be?” Scootaloo said.
(Orchestra of Justice Dragon Ball Super) “How pitiful, not being able to defend yourself without your elder siblings,” Frieza said, before Ganondorf and Demigra stepped out from behind him.
“We’ll be taking that Candle now, or else you will be destroyed. No mercy,” Ganondorf said to Apple Bloom, who was holding the Candle.
“No! You’re scary!” Apple Bloom said, running the other way, only to be cut off by Ridley flying through a window.
“How naive, thinking you had a choice in the matter,” Demigra said.
“Scootaloo! Catch!” Apple Bloom tossed the candle to Scootaloo, who was seized in vines.
“And so we arrive! Like news of a finger snap destroying half of existence,” Bill Cipher said, entering with Flowey and Dimentio.
“Let us go, you monsters!” Sweetie Belle said.
“Nah, I don’t really feel like it,” Bill Cipher said.
“Like Demigra said, naive, thinking you had a choice in the matter,” Ganondorf said, grabbing the Candle.
(SSBB Battlefield) “I believe the fillies do, in fact, have a choice in this matter,” Ozpin said, beaming down from the Halberd.
“Ozma… How long it has been since our last encounter, and with a new body as well,” Ganondorf said, summoning his Twin Greatblades: The Swords of Demise.
“He never came alone, dear,” Bayonetta said, opening fire.
“Indeed, for we’re ready to take you out,” Meta Knight said, joining the fray as well. Then Palutena beamed down and shielded the CMC with a reflect. Remilia and Ichigo were then flung into this room by the chaos with Celestia.
“THE CANDLE!!!” Ichigo and Remilia shouted in unison, about to strike Ganondorf.
“YHATATATATATATATATATATATA” Heavy said in the other room, firing Natascha. This earned him a hoof to stomach, which only made him angrier.
“Whoops, should have told you, never make Heavy angry,” Medic said, ubercharging Heavy.
“What’s going on in here?” Sakura said, running into the room with the CMC to heal everyone. Celestia downed her with a blast of magic, but was hit by Rock Lee.
(Eclipse of the Moon Hyrule Warriors) Immediately Daphnes saw Bill Cipher, floating there in mid air, about to grab the candle he had recovered from Soul Society, when Flowey came in the other direction holding another candle. The villains then made for windows, the Pillar of Autumn collecting those who could not fly, before Daphnes used his Malice Form to hold it in place as best as he could, as he was enraged. “NOT THIS TIME BILL!!” Daphnes roared, his roar being heard from Tartarus.
(Final Hope DBS) As soon as he was about to pull The Pillar of Autumn Down, He saw The CMC were terrified due to it, and due to this, he turned back to his normal self, letting the Thruster Burn him in the process. as the ship burned him, it burned away the the top part of his tunic.
GAME!!!!!!
“They got away! Is that it? Did we just lose?” Remilia said.
“Maybe not. Eddie, is the Candle we got at the Soul Society still there?” Serif asked.
“Nope. Not that I’d be able to find it anyway because someone insists on keeping the bridge a mess, but three fillies ran in and took it,” Eddie reported over comm.
“What?! Who took it out of the cockpit?!” Ichigo said. Scootaloo looked down in shame.
“It was the CMC, wasn’t it?” Daphnes said.
“I’m sorry, it’s all my fault! The bad guys took it from us,” she said.
“Why did you take it in the first place?” Daphnes asked.
“We thought it looked dangerous, so we tried to find Applejack or her friends. They would know what to do with it,” Apple Bloom said.
“You did what?! Ya know that it must’ve been part of Luna’s plan to stop this prophecy from happening,” Applejack said, before Daphnes used his magic to repair the burned tunic.
“If you believe it, than you can help us… But there’s something… off,” Daphnes said.
“Well, it’s time we got back to work.” Luna beamed down from the Halberd. “And it seems that Celestia was kind enough to lower the sun for us.”
“I didn’t do that,” Celestia said.
“OH SHIZ!” Serif yelled, seeing that Equestria had gone into nighttime on its own.
“Alright! Phase 2, let’s go!” Bill said, returning to the place where the Infernal Obsidian and 4 of the Lightless Candles were up to perform the Ritual.
“This is where we summon the Serpent,” Dimentio informed the group.
“Do we use the blood now?” Flowey asked.
“Yep. Drac, make the rune!” Bill said, before Dracula drew the rune from the blood. Then Bill stood facing the obelisk at one of the rune’s 8 points. “ARELO ERACUDNAM OTNEMEM!”Bill chanted. Then the rune began to glow, and pulsated with power. Then the niche on the wall formed by the first ritual began to glow, as it was filled by a flaming serpent that slithered through the groove to complete the seal.
“Now all we have to do is find a lotta Dark Power!” Flowey said.
“Fawful! I see your frown! Is there an issue?” Dimentio said.
“No, Fawful is lacking the ‘something wrong,’” Fawful said, trying to avoid detection.
“Isn’t it beautiful? All the worlds, plunged into eternal night! Oh but it’s gonna get better! Just you wait, once we have a buncha dark power, the show’s gonna get BIG!” Bill said.
“What is-a that?” Luigi asked worriedly, pointing up at the sky, where ominous things indeed were happening.
“Something we all should be afraid of,” Whis said. In the sky, the clouds had cleared, but it suddenly, at 1:15 PM, had become night. The strange cloud formation suddenly glowed like fire, and into center slithered a great, similarly glowing serpent, forming a terrible seal.
“That seal… I’ve seen it before… A friend of mine had it on his arm… That snake…! It was on his arm! ” Daphnes said.
“What do you mean you saw it on someone’s arm?! DO YOU MEAN THAT WE HAVE ANOTHER TO DEAL WITH?!” Beerus said.
“Whatever this is, get ready. It’s nothing good,” The Grand Priest said.
“We should be ready for anything, right?” Zeno said.
In a dorm of Beacon Academy, four students watched the happenings from their window. “This doesn’t seem safe… I’m a bit worried about it… it reminds me too much of the White Fang,” Blake said, before Ozpin contacted the group.
“...However, this is much more dangerous than them… This is the beginning of an Entity’s return… and he must be stopped,” Ozpin said, looking at the four.
“Then we’ll help as best we can,” Ruby Rose said, grabbing onto Crescent Rose.
“Hey, c'mon sis… Let’s get ready for the battle and end it!” Yang said, readying her Ember Celica.
“We should be at least be a bit careful,” Weiss said, and readied Myrtenaster.
“Though be warned, while you may be stronger now, you are still only young… Teamwork may get you far, but this opponent will be stronger than any Grimm you face.” Ozpin said.
“We won’t let you down, Professor, We promise,” Ruby said. Then the group set off.
“I suppose it’s time you got some answers,” Celestia said. The group had assembled at Beerus’s planet with all of their allies.
“Indeed, ones that I don’t think anyone could shed some light on the matter of the Entity of Shadows like you could… Can you please tell us more?” Daphnes said.
“Yeah, like, what does this ritual even do?” Captain Falcon said.
“Just in case THEY don’t know.” Pinkie Pie said, breaking the Fourth Wall.
”Right,” Celestia said. “Anyway, long ago, when Fangea was still somewhat new, just after the Death Battle era had ended and we all went back to Good VS Evil, a terrible demon attacked the worlds. This demon went world to world, destroying everything that didn’t match his vision. Many of the villains from the various worlds joined him. To further explain, I’ll need a certain book. Twilight, will you get The Legend of the Entity of Shadows Shadows for me?”
“Oh, Of course! I made a copy so that way the entire tale could be kept intact if it ever got stolen, damaged, some of the pages came out, or destroyed entirely!” Twilight said, giving the book to Celestia.
“Long ago,” Celestia read from the book, “An entity of supreme power and evil menaced the fandoms. This demon changed all he saw to be like himself, and recruited many across Fangea to join him in his conquest. He was called...” Celestia paused, as if to afraid to invoke some terrible evil that might come from speaking the name. “...Darkness.”
“Oooooh. Very scary,” Mario said.
“No time for Sarcasm, Mario. Besides, I’m actively interested in who this Darkness is,” Daphnes said.
“Wait a minute,” Pit said. “Why are you suddenly now helping us? If you want to help, why were you trying to stop us earlier?”
“Because I was afraid,” Celestia said.
“Afraid? Of what?” Toriel asked.
“You were put in a similar position of power as others before you, weren’t you?” Daphnes asked.
“No, that’s not it… Luna, you had best tell them.” Celestia said.
“I… I can’t. You tell them.” Luna said, terrified. “Very well… The reason I was scared of anything regarding Darkness was that… Luna was once a member of Darkness’s legions… Known as Nightmare Moon. I feared that if Darkness’s influence was to return, she would succumb to who she was,” Celestia said.
“Nightmare Moon? Why does that name sound all too familiar to me?” Daphnes asked himself, before Twilight facehoofed and gave him something that allowed him to see what happened the day Luna was banished to the moon.
“But it’s more than that,” Celestia said “During the original invasion, Nightmare Moon sided with Dracula to send half of Equestria into Darkness’s realm. It was only reclaimed by the sacrifice of one member of a group of heroes, which are detailed in this book,” Celestia tried to read on, but all the other pages had been torn out.
“What?! I thought the legend was here!” Celestia asked, confused about what had happened to the pages.
“You mean that some of the pages are missing?! Someone must’ve torn them out or something-...Luna, what pages did you remove from the book again?” Daphnes asked, worried she might’ve accidentally ripped out the pages.
“No… This was not my doing,” Luna said.
“That’s not good,” Serif said.
“Well, what’s our next step?” Goku said.
“...I don’t know. I don’t think Bill and the others can actually complete the ritual, because there’s two elements that don’t exist in Fangea,” Luna said.
“And what would those two elements be, exactly?” Daphnes asked.
“The words to the final portion of the ritual, that I took from the scroll Bill has and burned. Also, a way to store large amounts of negative energy. The only source I know of are siren crystals, and the last known were destroyed a year ago in a world not connected to Fangea,” Luna said.
“Beg your pardon, but do you have a record of these sirens?” Mettaton said.
“I do. I can show you,” Twilight said, showing him a journal.
“Fawful has brought the pages. Through the ages, they have not faltered in their accuracy of the Original Heroes. And with them comes Heroes anew!” Fawful said, bringing a stack of old papers to the Light Cancer headquarters in Tartarus, with the assistance of Hades.
“Excellent. These pages will prove instrumental in defeating the Entity of Shadows, however, the time is not right to reveal them,” Tirek said.
“You know, Tirek, They may already know the fact that The Entity of Shadows is named Darkness and also, we shouldn’t reveal what’s on these pages right? I don’t think they need to know that quite yet,” Hades said, breaking the 4th wall for the 2ND TIME AND IT’S ONLY PART 1! “Oh come now, even this story needs a few Fourth Wall Breaks now and then, after all, isn’t it a bit unexpected that you’re lecturing a character about not breaking the Fourth Wall, whilst said character is supposed to do that in the story, D30?” Hades… just… why did you do this? “Probably because you and D30 want this to happen so that way you can keep those on both sides relatively entertained, Sword.” Alright, Alright… Just… close the fourth wall so that way this story can finish this chapter? No worries, I’ll keep it in.
“Excellent,” Mettaton said. He had gone to the Heart of Gold with the journal Twilight had given him. “It’s been a while since I’ve had a truly worthy opponent.”
“Uhhh, Mettaton, why did you drag Shyren and I away?” Napstablook said.
“You’ll see… just get ready for a show.” Mettaton opened Twilight’s journal to the first mention of the sirens. “Eddie, you said this ship can do anything, yes?”
“Uhhh… yeah?” Eddie responded.
“Then take me here!” Mettaton said, pointing to the reference.
“I’m afraid that it will not be able to be accessed. Admission from Serif or Daphnes must be allowed,” Delta said.
“Oh...guess we can’t go there, then,” Napstablook said.
“Lucky me, I’ve got a similar fandom signature. It certainly will let Eddie accept me as Serif,” Mettaton said, putting his hand on the window table.
“Undertale… Yup. we’re on our way! Just saying, though, what you’re wanting could blow the ship to kingdom come,” Eddie said.
“I propose we wait for Daphnes and Serif, if you disagree, then I shall-” Delta started.
“SHUT UP AND FLY!” Mettaton said.
“Okay, okay, geez,” Eddie said, before Delta sent himself to Daphnes’s Sheikah Slate. “Brace yourselves, it’s gonna be a bumpy ride!” Eddie said, as all heck broke loose on the Heart of Gold. A trio of dancing skeletons wandered onto the bridge, picking up mariachi instruments that had formed out of massive jelly blobs that seconds earlier had been lampposts. The skeletons, which were playing on a bandstand that had formerly been 42 pink and green cows that had formed the number 42, were then subsumed into an enormous cactus made of jelly with a single eye in the center, which then split into exactly 473 living replicas of Dat Boi. A tribe of 24 1 inch tall aborigines fell through a crack in time that had created itself from a tornado of clothespins and then promptly died of surprise. Then everything began to shake, and bright white light shone through the viewport.
“Yessssss. ONWARD!” Mettaton said, flying into the light.
“Alright, then… We’ll need to research if there’s something besides siren crystals that can provide dark power, and then-” Daphnes was saying.
“Daphnes, Someone is taking the Heart of Gold without Serif or you on board, and I was not able to stop them via Protocol. Please, try to stop him,” Delta said, warning the group.
Immediately Daphnes tried to stop Mettaton from leaving with the ship, calling his loftwing to catch up as fast as he could, but the Heart of Gold sped off before he could even catch up. “Where’s he going Delta?” Daphnes asked Delta, wondering where Mettaton was going.
“He was heading to Canterlot High, back in time to the day of the Battle of the Bands,” Delta said.
“When I find that robot I will personally take him apart,” Serif said, furious the Heart of Gold, his very own ship, had been stolen.
“But that’s just it- how are we going to find him? The only portal that would get us to where he went is permanently closed,” Twilight said.
“I didn’t even know we had time travel,” Sonic said.
“So I don’t think we have any other means,” Kakashi said.
“well i guess we could… no, never mind, forget it,” Sans said.
“Well, we have to get our ship back, so start thinking,” Pit said.
“I can't think o’ nothin’,” Engineer said.
“No ideas here,” Villager said.
“What are we going to do?!” Fluttershy said, afraid.
“Perhaps I can be of assistance,” A man wearing a plain brown tweed jacket with elbow patches, a checkered dress shirt, a red bow tie, braces, rolled up navy-blue trousers, black tan loafers, a gold wristwatch with an expansion band on his left wrist, wearing the face on the back of his wrist rather than the front, said.
“Well than.. This is a first from you, helping others to save Fangea from ruin, isn’t it… Man of Gallifrey?” Daphnes said.
“Who the heck is this guy?” Scout said.
“He’s got a weird bowtie,” Scootaloo said.
“Call me The Doctor, and bow ties are not weird, they are cool,” The Doctor said.
“Doctor! Perfect timing, we just had someone attempt to travel to the past,” Celestia said.
“To what time and why?” The Doctor said.
“One year ago, and what happened is a long story,” Twilight said. “So basically that mirror is a portal to another world, one that mirrors Equestria, but in a different form. All of us exist in that world, but in a different form. At that time that world had come under attack by the Sirens.”
“The Sirens?” Krillin asked.
“The sirens were three beautiful but dangerous creatures who had the power to charm ponies with their music. But to maintain this power, they had to feed on the negativity and distrust of others. The more of this negative energy they consumed, the stronger their voices became, and the farther they could spread their dark magic. If the sirens had their way, they would have divided and conquered all of Equestria. But a certain Star Swirl the Bearded wasn't having it. Rumor has it he found a way to banish them to another world – one where he believed their magic power would be lost,” Twilight said. “But that wasn’t the case, and we had to enter that world to stop them.”
“That… would make sense why Mettaton would want to go there! He’s been saying he’s been craving a true challenge for weeks now,” Alphys said.
“But that’s just it. There was a crisis involving that world a while back, and when it was over I permanently sealed the portal,” Twilight said.
“Doctor, you have a time machine! You could take us to when the portal worked, then we could go through!” Pinkie Pie said.
“Except that the world Twilight speaks of- I ran some geographical data and nowhere in Fangea is anything of Twilight’s description,” Alphys said.
“Remember, we have a Tardis, which is abbreviated for Time and Relative Dimension in Space,” Daphnes reminded Alphys.
“Well, why not to where you need to go? After all, Canterlot High isn’t too far away for us to reach with this old girl,” The Eleventh Doctor said, opening the doors to his Type 40 Tardis, which had materialized in the room. Immediately Daphnes walked in, and motioned the others to follow. Serif, Pit, and Shulk followed.
“I should point out that it might be a bit cramped as soon as we go through there, and it may tear apart the old girl going through the portal while we were in the portal,” The Doctor warned.
“I don’t care that wherever the heck we’re going isn't in Fangea. I want my ship back! Please.” Serif said. Immediately the Tardis flew through the Mirror, and the interior began to shake.
“EVERYONE HOLD ON!” The Doctor said, as flames shot up through floor panels.
“WE’RE ALL GONNA DIE!” Serif said.
“BRACE FOR IMPACT!” Daphnes shouted, holding onto the Console. Then everything began to shake, and bright white light shone through the TARDIS. The TARDIS shook harder and harder, and the light shone brighter and brighter and brighter until-.
In another world, the Canterlot High students known as the Rainbooms were all hanging out after practice whilst one of them was laughing.
“I still can't believe that happens when we play! Ooh! I've got to look into some new accessories! Something that looks good in a longer ponytail. Ooh! Maybe some clip-on earrings for when I get those adorable pony ears,” a girl with White as snow Skin and purple hair, named Rarity, stated.
“I just wonder why it happens. Princess Twilight took her crown back to Equestria. Shouldn't that mean she took all the magic back with her?” A girl with tan skin, blonde hair, and a Stetson on, named Apple Jack said curiously.
“Who cares why it happens? It makes my band totally awesome!” A blue skinned girl with rainbow hair, named RainbowDash, said confidently.
“Save your money and breath, amateurs. You won’t even make round one! You certainly won’t make it to finals, not against something as glamorous as me!” A box-shaped robot said as he rolled by.
“First off, Your band? Secondly, are we letting boxes into the competition? How sad,” Rarity of Eques-Earth said behind the Robots back.
“A: Duh! It was my idea to start the Rainbooms so we could be in the showcase. Plus I'm the lead singer and guitarist, and B: Totally agree,” Rainbow Dash of Eques-Earth said acknowledging Rarity’s comment about the robot before they all heard something crash land outside the portal.
“Woah, what was that?!” A girl of bacon looking hair, amber skin, wearing a jacket, violet shirt, and of Equestrian magic, named Sunset Shimmer, said worried and cautious. Immediately she saw people were going to where the crash was heard, and decided to head there by running to where it was.
“Wait, Sunset! We don’t even know what it is at all!” Pinkie shouted as Sunset Shimmer bolted straight to where the crash was heard.
“Excuse me, Pardon me, Coming through, Sorry!” Sunset said to multiple students as she ran past them while they were trying to get to class. Eventually, she arrived where it was, she saw that it was a Blue Police Box, burning and almost destroyed. After two minutes of viewing it in close detail, the doors opened up, and a man with brown hair, green tunic with a silver pauldron on his left shoulder, pouches on the side, red cape, sword, shield, and a burn mark on his right arm jumped out of the box, and landed in front of her.
“Well then, I think that we made it. Oh, right! Where are my manners? Salutations madam, My name is Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule, or Zeldalord if you prefer,” Daphnes said, being polite to Sunset Shimmer, even bowing to her as a sign of respect.
“You really don’t have to be so formal, name’s Sunset Shimmer,” Sunset responed.
“Let’s make this simple,” Serif said, then pulled out one of his AKs “WHERE ARE THE DAZZLINGS!”
“D-Dazzlings?! What’re you talking about?!” Sunset said.
“SERIF, ENOUGH! They probably don’t know about them yet!” Daphnes said.
“It is best if we don’t get involved for the time being,” The Doctor said.
“You don’t get it. This is personal. I got beef on this chick, and it goes way back. And oh, this just got a whole lot more complicated,” Serif said as a blue-skinned boy wearing second-hand clothes rounded the corner. “Doc, get us outta here!” Serif said.
“I don’t care if it’s personal, Serif. You need to let go of the past, for it doesn’t define who you are,” Daphnes said, before dragging Serif away from that student. Before being dragged in, Serif hit Sunset with a memory eraser.
“Well played” The Doctor said.
“If being a standby is necessary then so be it. We’ll wait until Mettaton shows up, and throw him out of the building, and I’ll have to try to use Time Alteration to catch him off guard,” Daphnes said.
Pit was doing aerial recon for Mettaton when he noticed something strange. “Hm? What is that?” he said as he flew closer. The strange happenings were among a trio of teenage girls, one of whom seemed to be under pressure from the others.
“He never would have wanted this,” she said.
“Aria, what’s wrong?” The leader of the group said.
“He wouldn’t want us to do this,” “Aria” said.
“Oh don’t worry about someone who’s dead,” The leader said, and magical energy hit Aria.
“You’re right. Let’s do this. For Her Majesty,” Aria said, then the group approached Canterlot High.
“Her Majesty?? Who’re they talking about?” Pit said, silently flying after them as best as he could.
The Rainbooms, as with the rest of Canterlot High, were sitting at lunch when Sunset Shimmer arrived at their table.
“So how was the tour?” AppleJack said.
“I don't know. I mean, these girls, they were... There was something off about them,” Sunset Shimmer said.
“Like, off like this?” Pinkie Pie made a face. “Or off like this?” She made another face, using carrots and lettuce from her lunch. “Or... Oh, oh! Like—” Pinkie Pie said, before being interrupted by Rainbow Dash.
“Maybe we should just let her tell us,” she said.
“That's just it,” Sunset said. “I can't put my finger on it. They just acted sort of... strange around me. Maybe someone already talked to them. Told them about what I did. So much for making a good first impression,”
“Uh-huh. Oh, that's probably not it,” FlutterShy said.
“Preparing your plan of attack, I assume?” Mettaton said, noticing them. “You know, with persistence like that, you could challenge me, if only you had a little more, pizazz.”
“WILL YOU SHUT UP?! IT’S JUST A MUSIC SHOWCASE!” RainbowDash said, furious at Mettaton.
“Oh, you are so ignorant. But of course, you’re from the past. You have no idea what is to come. It’s hilarious!” Mettaton said. “But wait,” Mettaton said.
“Oh brother,” Shyren said, knowing what was about to happen.
“The scene: a crowded, noisy, disgusting lunchroom, within which the sole inhabitant of any importance is the star of the show, Mettaton,” Mettaton said, posing dramatically.
“Oh give me a break, you’re being too flamboyant,” FlutterShy said.
“He is here, addressing those beings that, in spite of their quintessential inferiority, believe that they can challenge the most beautiful thing to ever set foot in this uncultured pigsty,” He continued.
“Uh, you’re on a wheel,” PinkiePie said.
“Besides, it’s not even a battle of the bands at all, it’s just a music showcase like Dash said,” AppleJack said.
“When suddenly, he is struck by an epiphany: could these seemingly worthless pebbles on the mountain in fact, be hidden geodes of talent and glamour? Could these so-called “Rainnoobs” be in fact, the sirens which he has sought for so long?” He finished, with a dramatically thoughtful pose.
“What do you mean sirens? There are no sirens here anyway!” Sunset Shimmer said.
“Compelling as his thoughts were, he could not be sure. Thus he returned to the vehicle that had become his home away from home on his long and perilous journey, to retrieve a device that could confirm the musings of his mind. Exit Mettaton, Shyren, and Napstablook, stage right.” Mettaton then left the Rainbooms, the lunchroom, and the school, along with his band.
“Who even was that? Why is he here? And WHAT DID HE EVEN MEAN?!” RainbowDash said, still trying to make sense of what happened.
“I’m... just as confused as you are, RD.” Sunset Shimmer stated.
The Rainbooms had been reunited with their friend Twilight Sparkle, and had gone to get milkshakes and catch up.
“What's new here? I mean, besides your school becoming the target of dangerous magical creatures from Equestria?” Twilight said.
“Yeah, so, that isn't exactly the only strange thing that's happened since you left,” RainbowDash showed Twilight a recording of her changing forms during practice.
“Pretty sweet, huh? It happens to all of us when we play,” she said, a bit excited. “Hmm,” Twilight said.
“My crown was returned to Equestria, but some of its magic must have remained here at Canterlot High. Now that we're all back together, we can use that magic on the sirens. Just like when we were able to use it on Sunset Shimmer when she turned into that horrifyingly awful winged monster! No offense,” Twilight said, apologetic to Sunset
“None taken. Heh. I'm used to it,” Sunset said, shrugging it off.
“They'll never even know what hit 'em!” RainbowDash said, afterwards miming a karate fight.
“We've got nothin' to worry about now that Twilight's back,” AppleJack said, grabbing RainbowDash’s hand before it hit her in the face. “Oh, I'm pretty sure I could find something to worry about. But it won't be the sirens,” FlutterShy remarked.
“The sooner we do this, the better. Any idea where the Dazzlings might be?” Twilight said. Nobody knew, except PinkiePie, who drank her entire milkshake in one gulp.
“There's a big party tonight for all the bands who signed up to be in the showcase! That would include the Dazzlings,” She said.
“Looks like we've got a party to crash,” Twilight said. PinkiePie squeed.
“jUsT a MuSiCaL sHoWcAsE! ThErE aRe No SiReNs HeRe! Well, in proving me right, you’ve wasted your time to prepare. Have fun in the spectators stands! I’ll reserve the back row, just for you,” Mettaton said as he rolled in.
“OH YOU WANT TO GO PUNK?! BRING IT ON!!!” RainbowDash said, grabbing onto a steel pipe.
“My metal body renders me invulnerable,” Mettaton said.
“ENOUGH! BOTH OF YOU! I don’t care who you are, but you are egotistical. These Sirens are too dangerous for you, now leave,” Sunset Shimmer said.
“Oh please, you’re just jealous of a star! I get that a lot. Now run along, dears, this table’s now taken,” Mettaton said.
“Uhhh, Mettaton, I searched and searched, but it just wasn’t anywhere,” Napstablook said.
“Oh that will never do! Oh well, it’s not like I was going to that party anyway. So many amateurs, I might get a headache,” Mettaton said.
“Oh will you shut up? Now where’s yer off switch?” AppleJack said, looking around him. Mettaton was facing forward.
“You don’t want to find it, trust me. Because it doesn’t do off. It- well, I wouldn’t want my finale being spoiled, don’t worry, you’ll see it when I challenge the Sirens in the final. But for now I have better things to do than waste my time on you. Tootles!” Mettaton said, driving off backwards so as not to show his switch.
“Jerk. Seriously, he’s automatically on my blow up list,” RainbowDash said, before tossing the pipe directly at the switch. But it missed, instead hitting something bony and invisible that was between it and Mettaton. From the invisible something, an object fell. It was some kind of bone. Sunset kept it.
The Rainbooms had gone to PinkiePie’s house for a sleepover. Sunset Shimmer was examining a strange bone she had found outside the restaurant, FlutterShy was petting Spike, PinkiePie was using her laptop, Twilight was reading, and AppleJack and RainbowDash were playing Super Smash Each Other In The Face Bros.
“Status update: "Okie-dokie-lokie," PinkiePie said as she typed in something. Rarity took a selfie with Sunset and Fluttershy that Spike tried to bomb but was poked in the eye by the bone, moving around on its own trying to escape.
“Oh no you don’t!” Sunset said, grabbing it and putting it in a small jar. Meanwhile the match between AppleJack and RainbowDash was heating up until RainbowDash slammed the console.
“Hey! I was about to beat you!” AppleJack said as the game lost connection.
“I doubt it,” RainbowDash said.
“So, Twilight, how is that counter-spell comin'?” Applejack asked.
“Huh? Oh, uh, good. Great. Thanks for letting me use your notebook, Fluttershy. I really like the song you wrote for the Rainbooms,” Twilight said.
“Thanks.” FlutterShy sighed. “Hopefully one day, we'll get a chance to play it.”
Meanwhile, RainbowDash was holding AppleJack’s controller away from her. “Hey!” Applejack said, trying to grab it.
Twilight was troubled when Rarity scooted next to her. “Twilight, I think I speak for all of us when I say I don't know what we would have done if you hadn't come back to help us.” she said. The others agreed.
“Darn tootin’” AppleJack said. Then the doorbell rang.
“Pizza’s here!” PinkiePie said, running to the door. But at the door was not the pizza guy- it was Mettaton.
“Hello there.” he said, then shined a green light on everyone but Sunset and Twilight. Immediately Pinkie slammed the Door shut, patting her hands and walking away from the door. FlutterShy looked out and saw the pizza guy tied to a lampost, with Napstablook and Shyren standing guard.
“Clearly This ‘Mettaton’ guy is either really stupid or doesn’t know privacy,” RainbowDash said. But when the police came, Shyren, Napstablook, and Mettaton were already gone.
Twilight was in the kitchen, looking over her counterspell. “No. That's not gonna work,” She said, after spitting out her pen.
“Hey, Twilight. You're up late,” Sunset Shimmer said, walking into the kitchen.
“Just looking over the counter-spell. We only get one shot at this. It has to be perfect,” Twilight said.
“We really are lucky you're here,” Sunset Shimmer said, reaching into the fridge.
“That's what everyone keeps telling me,” Twilight said.
“Who could possibly need this much whipped cream?" Sunset said, looking in the fridge.
"Must be nice to have everyone always looking to you for answers to their problems” she continued, spraying whipped cream on her thumb. “Instead of waiting for you to cause a problem.”
“Just because everyone expects something from you doesn't mean it's guaranteed to happen,” Twilight said.
“Well, that doesn't stop them from expecting it,” Sunset Shimmer said.
“Which only makes things harder, Because the last thing you want to do is…” Twilight said.
“...let everybody down.” Twilight and Sunset said in unison. Immediately she looked directly in another direction.
“Waaah!” Sunset said as MaudPie appeared in front of them
“Boulder was hungry,” Maud said. “And who is that?”
“Huh?” Twilight said as a green light shone through the window on her and Sunset. Then Sunset saw a square duck behind the window.
“UGHHH… I’m about done with him!” Sunset said. Immediately Maud shut the Blinds, quickly.
“Okay, Serif, we’ve got to intervene somewhere, one way or another, you know that right?” Daphnes said, pacing back & forth in the TARDIS, thinking of a plan.
The Canterlot Battle of the Bands was about to begin.
“Welcome to the first-ever Canterlot High School Battle of the Bands. I believe I speak for everyone when I say it is by far the greatest thing we have ever done here at this school!” Principal Celestia said.The students cheered. “We are so glad our three newest students encouraged us to turn this event into something exciting!” Principal Celestia said.
“But, as this is now a competition, we can only choose one winner. Who is it going to be?” Vice Principal Luna said. Then the students started arguing and from this, the Dazzlings got some power.
“You feel that, girls? Our true power is being restored,” Adagio said. The other two giggled. “And that's before we've tapped into the strongest magic here.”
“But the Rainblossoms, or whatever they're called, aren't under our spell, and neither is that weird robot guy. How exactly are we supposed to get to their magic?” Aria Blaze asked.
“The Rainbooms are just as capable of falling apart as anyone else. They just need a little... push in the wrong direction. I have a feeling everyone here is going to be lining up to give them a shove,” Adagio said. “As for the robot, his abilities aren’t strong. We can take him out, no issue.”
(1:50) “Great Sakurai, this is atrocious,” Mettaton said, with the Rainbooms hearing every last word of Mettaton’s sentence,
After the performance was over, both Snips and Snails dropped their microphones.
“Please do not drop the microphones,” Principal Celestia scolded both of them.
“Yeah! Bam!” Snips shouted, and Snails was started to laugh.
“In your face, Rainbooms!” Snips said, clearly being tone deaf.
“Least we know one group who won't stand in the way of us gettin' to the finals, and at least we can agree with Mettaton this time. That was atrocious,” AppleJack said, somewhat cringing.
“Let's get ready to rock! Also, agreed… that was awful,” RainbowDash added, cringing at Snips and Snails.
“Wait! Where's Rarity?” PinkiePie asked
“Oh! Here! I'm here!” Rarity said, running up to the group, metal fringes jangling on her outfit, and panting.
“We will be performing in front of an audience. I'm not going to wear something fabulous? Hmph,” Rarity said, scoffing
“Guh…” AppleJack said, as students were chattering constantly.
“Remember, we have to be good enough to make it through but not so good we let the sirens see the magic within us. They could realize we plan to use it against them,” Twilight said to the group
“Got it! Be cool enough to win, but not so cool that we end up showing off the whole ears and tails and rainbows thing. Sooo... about twenty percent less cool,” RainbowDash said.
(0:47) “Wait, why do I feel like there’s magic other than theirs, and It feels so... Malicious?” Aria asked under her breath, looking around.
“No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No!” Daphnes thought in his head, as he was in disguise, watching, and noticing he was leaking Malice from his shoulder, and Aria was looking for where the Malice was coming from since he was producing an excess amount.
“Dude! Cool it!” Serif said.
“Sorry, I can’t stop producing it naturally.” Daphnes tried to hold the Malice off for as long as he could.
“Aria, what’re you doing?!” Adagio said quietly, as she caught her looking around before she sensed the exact same magic.
“What is that enormous amount of Malicious magic I sense?” She asked, before Daphnes got extremely worried, and ran straight into the hallway, keeping out of the auditorium to keep people safe, and Sonata noticed him running to the hallway.
“Hey, girls? I’m going to go out for a bit, Just… Tell me when the Rainbooms' performance ends, okay?” Sonata said, and both Aria and Adagio agreed, albeit hesitantly. Immediately Sonata followed Daphnes, who accidentally left a trail. Eventually, he was found in a storage closet, and the jacket he was wearing was on the floor, completely covered in Malice. Sonata smelled it, and realized it was much more potent in dark magic than Equestrian magic could ever be. Immediately she opened the closet and saw Daphnes holding his wrist.
“Why? Why is it spreading so quickly? If I break, I could accidentally kill billions… like I did back then...” Daphnes said, sounding scared of himself… But why was he so scared of himself? He shouldn’t be so scared, considering he was a student… Right? Immediately Sonata looked close and saw he changed his clothes to something she didn’t recognize.
“A-are you okay?” Sonata asked concerned, and Daphnes screamed, turned around, made direct eye contact with Sonata, who got startled and was on the ground.
“...Those eyes… I’ve seen them before, but where?” Daphnes said, still somewhat startled.
“Uhh… Nice to meet you.” Sonata sniffed his hand, curious of the Malice.
“...you followed me because of this, isn’t that right?” Daphnes said, summoning a small orb of Malice, letting her look at it.
“Mhm! My name’s Sonata, nice to meet you… whatever your name is.”
“Daphnes. You won’t need to call me anything else… but please, let’s not mention this to anybody else?” Daphnes said, giving her enough malice to feed her, Sonata, Aria, and Adagio. “Just say an unwilling student gave you these, ok?”
“Oh.. Okay. But they won’t believe it,” Sonata said, then Daphnes smiled softly.
“Just… Say that it’s a bit of a spoiler on who gave it to you.” Daphnes changed clothes quickly, and had Sonata walk in near the end of the performance and gave her 3 small Malice Fragments.
“Finally Sonata’s back, where were you, and did you get the magic?” Aria asked, actively excited.
“Heh, Spoilers, Arie. I’ll tell you when we get back to base,” Sonata said, with the same snark Daphnes remembered River Song had. Eventually, the Song ended, and the Rainbooms ran off the stage.
“Ruined! Absolutely ruined!” Rarity said, in tears.
“Rarity were you tryin' to make us lose out there?!” Applejack said, angry.
“Wh- Oh! This was not my fault! This was an act of sabotage!” Rarity said.
“Yeah, well, whoever did this couldn't have done this if you didn't insist on dressin' like... like... this!” AppleJack pointed at Rarity’s outfit. “We need to sound good! Is there some reason that concept seems to escape you?”
“And what was with the confetti, Pinkie Pie? How am I supposed to shred if there's paper stuck in my frets?!” RainbowDash yelled, holding confetti up to PinkiePie.
“It was pretty distracting…” Fluttershy said.
“Ugh! Says the girl who was running from a light the whole time! A light!” PinkiePie said.
“You still sounded much better than most of the other bands,” Sunset Shimmer said. “I'm sure you'll make it to the next round. But it won't matter if you don't have that counter-spell ready. You all find a place to practice where the sirens can't hear you. I'll keep an eye on things around here.”
“I must say, some apologies are owed,” Mettaton said, wheeling up to them.
“Apologies? For what reason? You weren’t the one who was sabotaging us,” AppleJack said.
“For giving you a vastly inflated vision of your ability. You’re not the sirens. You’re just more of the same: amateurs who can’t even run a successful show. I came for sirens, but now I see that this school needs someone who knows what they’re doing,” Mettaton said.
“You do realize we were getting sabotaged, right?” RainbowDash said,
“It wouldn’t have mattered. In fact, I think the ‘sabotage’ was helping matters. The only compliment I have, and yes, I have one, is the keytar player’s outfit. Good choice, using metal. I find that metal gives a certain shine to a show,” Mettaton said, walking off.
“Well at least he knows his fashion choices,” Rarity said, impressed that Mettaton had complimented her outfit.
“Well of course he’d say that. He’s a robot,” AppleJack said. Then Napstablook floated in.
“Oh, hey. Uh, listen, Mettaton’s doing a song he sang in the underground. Shyren’s being Dr. Alphys, but the song involved a human, and he needs someone to be the human. He asked me to come get you,” He said to Sunset Shimmer. “So, uh, can you come? Please? It’s not hard, just a quiz game to go with the song.”
“No thanks, I’d rather be with my friends. thank you for asking though,” Sunset said, denying Mettaton’s request politely.
“Oh, uh, ok,” Napstablook said, flying off afterward.
“Yeah, I’m not taking any chances with him, especially after that warning,” Sunset said to the rest of the rainbooms, and trying to walk off.
“Mettaton! Can I play your game? Please? I love games!” Sonata asked.
“That might not go well. If the Dazzlings get too public-” The Doctor said.
“Oh! You want to instead? Why yes, of course. On you go,” Mettaton said.
“WAIT!!” Sunset shouted, trying to keep Sonata away from the show. “I’ll do it. Sonata can watch for all I care.”
“I knew you couldn’t resist the spotlight. Well now, Shyren will tell you what you are to do. This is going to be stellar!” Mettaton said.
“Don’t get the wrong idea, I’m just doing this because it’s the right thing to do,” Sunset whispered in Sonata’s ear.
“So Mettaton’s gonna do some stuff, just play along,” Shyren said once they were on stage.
(0:20) “Oh, it’s this,” Serif said. “Don’t worry, Sunset’ll be fine, I’ve seen this before and no-one gets hurt.” (End) “Well… that happened,” Sunset said after Mettaton was through and she got off the stage.
“Yeah, and he was being a bit over the top,” RainbowDash said.
“Like you aren’t at times, Dash?” FlutterShy said.
“Can you please not argue right now?” Twilight said.
Twilight was trying to talk to Flash, but Flash was ignoring her. “Why are you acting like this? I thought we were friends,” Twilight said.
“Yeah, and then you decide to come back here just so you can beat me in the Battle of the Bands. I want this, Twilight, and you're trying to take it from me! Some friend,” Flash Sentry said, clearly under The Dazzlings’s influence
“That's not why—” Twilight said, on the ground.
“Come on, Twilight. We've got things to do,” AppleJack said, helping Twilight up.
“You really think you're gonna help them?! Ha! I bet you have no idea what you're even doing!” Flash said as Twilight started to cry.
“Please, don’t waste such a burningly passionate relationship with the girl of your dreams over a contest you stand no chance in next to me,” Mettaton said, driving up.
“Oh will you shut up you walking tin can?! You’re not even special! ‘Ooh, look at me, I’m a giant rolling robot with ego issues!’ That’s what you are!” Flash said.
“Oh, you ain’t seen nothin’ yet! The first round was child’s play. Now go try to salvage something a little more enduring than a contest,” Mettaton said, dragging him to face Twilight. “Well, apologize.”
“Why should I? You’re not my boss!” Flash said, getting free from his grip.
“I’m fine. You don’t have to worry at all Mettaton,” Twilight said, trying to reassure Mettaton.
“I said apologize,” Mettaton primed his taser before Flash whacked it with his guitar.
“Well,” Mettaton turned to Twilight. “You’re welcome for trying. I know what it’s like to lose a friend,” Mettaton said.
“You know… you might not be so bad after all. Hope you get into the finals,” AppleJack said, wishing him luck.
“Believe me, we have a common enemy, only our approaches are different. You want to undermine the sirens, whoever they are, and I want to outshine them. Do yourselves a favor, and don’t get in my way,” Mettaton said.
“Did you even look at the people with the red gems in the middle of their chokers?” Twilight asked him.
“Hm? No. Thank you,” Mettaton said, going on his way.
“Well, hope you get what you want eventually...” Twilight said.
“Fantastic!” Principal Celestia said while laughing.
“Hmph. You're never gonna top that performance, "Rain-goons". You shouldn't be allowed to when you have such a big advantage over the rest of us,” Trixie said.
“My superior guitar playing and off-the-charts awesome singing voice?” RainbowDash said.
“Oh, don't be ridiculous. I mean her! If you were really all that, Rainbow Dash, you wouldn't have needed to bring in some magical ringer to have half a chance. Everyone's talking about it,” Trixie said.
“Ha! Puh-leeze! I could win this thing as a solo act and everybody knows it!” RainbowDash said.
“Sure you could,” Trixie said, before disappearing.
“She's gone! Oh, wait. There she is,” The humane six said.
“Next up, the Rainbooms,” Principal Celestia announced.
“Knock 'em dead, Rainbooms!” Spike said, cheering RainbowDash on
“I'll be here... just... watching,” Sunset Shimmer said.
(stop at 0:41) Sunset realized what was happening: RainbowDash was showing her ears. But something wheeled past her before she could do anything.
“NO! NO! NO! I SIMPLY WILL NOT BE OUTSHINED!” Mettaton said. “And I can see all that magic bursting out from you, so why don’t we put it to use! Don’t hold back, RainbowDash! And Napstablook, flip my switch!”
“Are you sure?” Napstablook asked, wary.
“Yes, I’m sure,” Mettaton said.
“Ok,” Napstablook said, and AppleJack saw the switch on his back.
“Oh no… I feel like we should all DUCK!!!” AppleJack said, grabbing everyone and getting down onto the ground. Mettaton began to shake, then whir out of control, until finally exploding.
“Well… I guess that nothing had to happen with him.” RainbowDash said, believing they had won.
Then everyone heard, loud and clear, “OHHHH YESSSS!!!” “Oh no...” Daphnes said, hearing it himself.
“What- no… WHO is THAT?!” Twilight said as a new robot took the place of the box. This was entirely different, and now, Twilight could see the reason behind his mannerisms. He now looked human, and, Sunset hated to admit, handsome.
Mettaton started with a series of glowing boxes to RainbowDash. RainbowDash used her magic, now turned into a shooter, to destroy these, but saw the green energy that came from them. The Dazzlings looked at this energy hungrily. “Can you keep up the pace?” Mettaton said.
“Heh… I’m done,” RainbowDash said, putting away her guitar, and powering down.
“Oh I don’t think so,” Mettaton said, shooting lasers off a disco ball at RainbowDash, who was now dodging instead of fighting. “Let’s make this… EXPLOSIVE!” Mettaton said, throwing bombs at RainbowDash and making her fight box such that she had to shoot them.
“I said, I’m done. No and’s, if’s or but’s. I’m not fighting anymore,” RainbowDash said, not attacking them.
“I see that magic,” Mettaton said, absorbing the green vapor. “But it’s for later. Not enough all at once yet, see?”
“So? Aren’t you gonna force me to fight? Because I’m not interested,” RainbowDash said.
"You're not the one in charge here. This is my performance now," Mettaton said, kicking RainbowDash several times. With each successful kick, the audience cheered and more green energy appeared, that Mettaton siphoned.
"Will you leave me alone?!" RainbowDash said.
"Pop quiz! What do you like most about Mettaton?" Mettaton said.
"Nothing! Now get your legs outta my face!" RainbowDash screamed.
"That's right! Legs was the correct answer!" Mettaton said. "Your answer really showed us your heart. Why not show you mine?" A heart-shaped mechanical component detached from Mettaton and shot electricity at RainbowDash. RainbowDash noticed that every strike, whether hers or Mettaton's, produced negative energy.
“Almost… NOW!” Mettaton said, turning to face the Dazzlings, three green beams primed in his chest.
“What is he planning? Feeding us until we’re stronger?” Adagio said, not immediately realizing there was a plan for their undoing.
“! No, wait, that’s too much! RUN!” Adagio said, narrowly avoiding Mettaton’s blast.
“Oh well, then I’ll just have to do this the old-fashioned way.” Mettaton jumped at Adagio with a flying kick, only to get winded by Flash.
“Not so tough without that shell, huh?” he said.
GAME!!!!!
“Wait, was that what he was planning?! He planned to overfeed them the whole time!” Twilight said, before realizing it could accidentally overflow into the rest of the school.
“Come on! Get up please! We need your help getting everyone out of here!” FlutterShy said to Mettaton, who lay damaged on the floor next to them, with tears in her eyes.
“I’m alright, I just… Flash is strong, and without my exterior shell I’m vulnerable,” Mettaton said, walking away.
“You need to get out of here now! You’ve already ruined his plan!” RainbowDash said to Flash, mildly annoyed.
“Well, Mettaton looks like he had more stamina at the end of the fight, so he will be going on to the final round,” Principal Celestia said. The energy from the blast still lingered.
“I’ll deal with that,” Mettaton said, absorbing the energy and shooting it into space in the form of a beam.
“Hope you do well in the Finals! And… hopefully we can get the mist out of the sky before it becomes a problem,” Twilight said, wishing Mettaton well.
“! I need to try and divert that energy!” Daphnes said, before trying to access his malice once more, only to roar in pain, and throw malice on almost all the walls, which was absorbing the energy of the mist and was creating more black and red mist, fueled by evil, which caught the Dazzlings’s attention.
“What is that?!” Adagio and Aria both shouted in unison, as Sonata looked at Daphnes with concern in her eyes. Immediately Serif grabbed Daphnes and flew away from Canterlot High.
“I know that was stupid of me… And I won’t do anything like that ever again.” Daphnes said, looking down whilst cleaning his arm away from the Malice.
“Well, the final round’s tonight. Let’s get in position,” Goku said.
“You’re right… Make sure you can keep a close eye on Mettaton and the Dazzlings… Whatever happens will determine the fate of everyone. Hopefully, we can stop this Entity of Shadows from re-emerging… ” Daphnes said.
(disregard all Rainbooms scenes up to 1:45, then stop there) “Time for my entrance. AT LONG LAST!” Mettaton said over the Dazzlings as he walked on stage. “THE SIRENS! PERFORMING COMBATANTS WORTHY OF MY GLAMOUR! Now, it’s time, to show you, MY FULL POWER! BEHOLD!” he said, starting to transform.
“METTATON NEO!” He said when the transformation was finished. He looked similar to his EX form, but moe menacing, now sporting wings formed of neon pink light on his back, and an arm cannon. “And now, let’s END THIS!” He said, three green lights appearing in his cannon. But before he could fire the Dazzlings hit him with a magic blast that trophied him instantly.
“How pathetic, to think he was that dangerous to begin with,” Adagio said. Suddenly other music was heard, and the Rainbooms joined the fight.
(continue with the first video, now regarding Rainbooms’ scenes.)
When all was said and done, the Dazzlings’ gems were broken. The Dazzlings tried to save their performance, but the audience hated it.
“Exactly as it should be,” Serif said.
“Something’s not right… everyone be on your guard,” Daphnes said. Suddenly the food being thrown at the Dazzlings was stopped, by a magic forcefield projecting from… VINYL?!?!
“I knew something was up… ” Daphnes said.
“?! Vinyl?? Why would you do this? Were you under their influence?” Sunset Shimmer said, confused.
“Not theirs, but an influence!” Vinyl said, taking off her shades to reveal her eves, which were glowing yellow.
“Wait… Those eyes… where have I seen them?” Twilight said.
“AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!! And I must say, thanks for wearing yourselves out for me. Really makes my job easy,” Bill Cipher said, flying out of Vinyl.
“You’re just like them. No prob, we can take you on!” RainbowDash said, confident in the power she and her friends used to defeat the Dazzlings.
“Ya probably could, except you don’t have THESE!” Bill said, before bringing out six trophy stands.
“And what’ll those do? Turn us into what Mettaton turned into? After that, I’m a bit skeptical,” AppleJack said, confused.
“Lemme show you! What do they say in music? Oh, yeah. A 1!” Bill said, hitting Fluttershy with a stand. “A 2!” Bill hit AppleJack. “A 1 2 3 4!” Bill trophied the remaining Rainbooms except Sunset Shimmer.
“So why help the Dazzlings?! What’s your aim?!” Sunset said, somewhat scared, but standing her ground.
“Oh I ain’t helpin’ the Dazzlings, I’m changing the whole game!” Bill said, before turning the Dazzlings into a mechanical monstrosity. Adagio formed 2 wheels, Aria formed a mechanical body with cannons on its arms and head, whilst Sonata formed the second body, which had a blade on its head, and two blades for hands. The three had been merged into a terrible machine known as Duon, and there was no way Sunset was strong enough to fight it, much less alone.
“Daphnes, if we’re gonna intervene, it’s gotta be now,” Serif said.
“Okay, Going up against sirens would hurt a lot, not just me, but them even more so... Now smashing a giant robot with three guns and three blades? Time to kick some steel tail. Everyone, on my mark!” Daphnes said, waiting for Duon to attack. Duon’s blade side tried to cut Sunset in two, but was blocked by Daphnes using the Vortex Shield.
Serif jumped up to Duon, using his rocket boots to maintain fire from his AK-47s from above Duon. Immediately a shot from a pistol hit Duon’s wheels, causing it to spin out of control, and causing Duon to stab the ground, struggling to get up, and Sunset saw Daphnes was holding a Thompson Contender, Immediately Duon spun around, striking Daphnes and getting perilously close to the edge of the stage.
“Daphnes, hold him off! I gotta do something about the spellbound.” Serif said, then fired over the heads of the crowd. This scattered any that were still there, and Daphnes was clashing against Duon’s blades.
“I’m going to need some help here! Serif, Keep its gun head preoccupied!” Daphnes said, at the edge of the stage with rubble slowly chipping off.
“I got-AAAAAUGH!” Serif said, shooting Duon’s pink side and being given a missile shooting in return.
“Hey Ms. Pretty Princess Pony, a little help here? Cuz in this team if Mario’s gonna save Peach than Peach needs to carry her weight!” Serif said.
“First off: Don’t call me a coward or weak! Secondly: Hold on! I think I know what to do!” Sunset said, before grabbing onto that of Daphnes’s Calico M950 that had slipped conveniently out of his pouch, and fired directly at Duon’s wheels, which caused Duon to spin around and strike her with his blade end, which she jumped back quickly, and fired directly at Duon’s blade end. Then Duon spun around at the group, hitting them all and ending with it’s gun side facing the group, a glowing blue orb of energy at its tip, which Daphnes charged at, and struck at the orb with a Light Arrow. The orb still fired six shots, and everyone got hit twice.
“What even is this thing?!” Sunset said, not realizing everything that was happening.
“We’ll explain as soon as the Dazzlings are freed, now start aiming at the gun head with that Calico M950, and keep it busy! And another note: Don’t get shot by it too much. Serif, focus on the wheels, if it starts turning faster trying to throw us off, make sure to focus itself back to you. I’ll focus on the blade head, keep it away from both of you. If we can keep it distracted on all fronts, we’ll at least stand a chance!” Daphnes said, readying his blade. The gun side then wheeled around and shot Daphnes.
“Dude don’t say your plan through the air. New plan: Pony, go for wheels, Daphnes, go for guns, I’ll go for blades!” Serif said out loud, then turned on his comm. “Actually, stay on the blade side and I’ll get the gun side!” he said through it. Immediately Daphnes jumped into the air , and smirked… waiting for Duon to spin around from the gun end and strike at him with the blade end. As it did, Daphnes avoided, and struck the blade end with The Lord Sword, which was glowing a brilliant golden light, as Sunset immediately shot at the center of the wheels, which caused both to fly completely off.
“SERIF, NOW!” Daphnes shouted, and Serif blasted Duon with a full power Chaos Buster II. Duon immediately started exploding, as Dark Particles started shedding off of it, whilst the Dazzlings returning to their original human forms, their gems intact but not around their necks.
“Well… that went better than I expected,” Serif said, as Sunset tossed Daphnes’ Calico M950 to him.
“By the way, Sunset… thanks. Without you, I don’t think we could’ve gotten through,” Daphnes said, catching it and putting it back in his Adventure Pouch.
“Oh we totally could’ve, but say what you will,” Serif said.
“That was great! Wanna play again?” Bill said.
“Oh no, I’m not doing that again!” Daphnes said, teleporting in front of Bill and punching him down to the ground.
“Wow, and here I was trying to be nice,” Bill said, before snapping his fingers. Then the sky returned to normal, the Dazzlings and Sunset Shimmer changed to be dressed differently and in different places, and Serif heard the Heart of Gold take off. Mettaton was exactly where time had left him.
“Wait, I thought those were destroyed!” Sonata said.
“GET HIM!” Daphnes said, running straight at him.
“WHAT IS GOING ON?! Wait… why does one seem oddly familiar?” Sunset said, having forgotten about this group until now.
“OUR GEMS!” Adagio screamed, running after Daphnes. Immediately Daphnes jumped straight at Bill and started flying directly at him, hoping to grab onto the Gems. Bill dodged in the air, only for his legs to be grabbed by Sonata.
“GIVE OUR GEMS BACK!” Aria said, climbing up Sonata. Immediately Daphnes grabbed onto Bill and tried dragging him down by equipping the Osmium Boots, but Bill kicked him off. The chase took them through the streets of Canterlot, with Daphnes flying directly at him. Eventually, they came to Canterlot High.
“GET BACK OVER HERE!” Sunset said.
“NANANANAHHNAHH!!! You can’t catch- OW!” Bill said as Serif used Blue mode to pin Bill to the ground.
“It’s over, Bill” Adagio said.
“Now give back our gems!” Aria said.
“Can’t let that happen, I’m afraid. As far as I know, you girls are still dangerous,” Sunset said.
“Sonata did nothing wrong, she even tried to comfort me as soon as she saw I was terrified of myself!” Daphnes said to Sunset aloud in front of the Dazzlings and the Rainbooms.
“Well if she did that, I don’t see a reason to consider them a danger,” AppleJack said, walking up to Sunset.
“I still don’t trust them. After all, they hurt our friends!” RainbowDash said, grabbing the pendants.
“I think it’s best if we have Twilight decide what to do with them,” Sunset said.
“Yeah, she’ll know what to d-AUGHH” RainbowDash said as she was slashed by a sword and crashed into the side of Canterlot, trophied.
“! What was that?!” Daphnes said, grabbing onto his blade, and readying for battle.
“You will not hurt the princesses!” a young man said. He looked strong, with light skin and slightly below average height, a lean and toned build, spiky blond hair with one long spike coming off the end, blue eyes, which glow due to him having being exposed to Mako, wielding the Buster Sword, a massive sword several feet long, indigo pants with a sleeveless shirt, and a belt, brown boots, gauntlets with a pauldron over his left shoulder and a SOLDIER band in his left wrist, and a silver earring in his left ear said. This fighter was known as Cloud Strife.
“Looks like someone’s still under the spell!” Fluttershy said. Then Cloud trophied AppleJack, Sunset Shimmer, and Rarity and scared the other Rainbooms away.
“My lady, you are safe.” Cloud said, bowing to the Dazzlings, specifically Sonata, before Daphnes struck him in the back with the Back Slice. “! Enemies! Stay back! I honor my oath. The Dominatur shall not touch you!” Cloud said, slashing at Daphnes, who blocked with his shield.
“Dominatur? We’re Dealing with Darkness! Entity of Shadows! Whoever these Dominatur are, won’t get past me!” Daphnes said.
“LIMITS ARE MEANT TO BE BROKEN!” Cloud yelled, breaking his limit and striking Daphnes with a Blade Beam. Daphnes hit the ground. Cloud then made a grab for the pendants, only to pluck grass. “! What? NO!” Cloud said, looking up.
“Missing somethin’” Bill said, hovering above them next to Dimentio. Cloud used a Climhazzard to try to strike Bill, but hit a copy and fell to the ground. Bill laughed and waved the pendants before getting struck by the Lord Sword with the Mortal Draw, which trophied him instantly.
“There is no defense, the Mortal Draw deals death to all who are struck by it,” Daphnes said, in a voice that sounded ghost-like, with an armored, skeletal figure wielding a sword and shield covered in moss with cracks on the blade, armor, and shield seeming to stand beside him over Bill’s trophy.
“But he can still transfer the pendants to my hands. Time for my exit,” Dimentio said, teleporting away with Bill.
“And where was he the whole time?!” PinkiePie said, returning to yell at Serif.
“Fitting a tracker to Dimentio. If we run it through the Heart of Gold computer we can see what he’s up to,” Serif said.
“So what you're saying, is that we’ve got a tracker… ON DIMENTIO?!?” Daphnes said.
“YEP!” Serif said.
“I gotta go. The bell just rang, Mr. Cranky won’t be happy if I’m late,” Sunset said. Sunset went straight to her locker, with Daphnes following suit.
“Uhhh, why are you following me?” Sunset asked, creeped out. She lost Daphnes in the hall by turning as if to go to the science lab… but Daphnes had only turned invisible, then looped around back to her locker. She opened her locker looking for her journal, only for it not to be where she thought she left it.
“Oh no! Without that journal, I have no way to contact Princess Twilight!” Sunset said.
“Lookin’ for somethin’?” Flowey said, popping up through the floor holding the journal.
“FLOWEY! PUT THAT JOURNAL DOWN!!” Daphnes shouted, flying directly at Flowey, before Flowey burrowed underneath.
“Not again.. DRILL!!!” Daphnes shouted, burrowing underneath the ground after Flowey at high speeds, only to be blocked by a wall of vines, which made itself as dense as osmium.
“He’s gone...” Sunset said.
“DANG!” Serif said, running up with the others. “Well, at least we got that tracker on Bill. I can use the Heart of Gold to see what’s going on.” The group made their way to the Heart of Gold, which was in a local junkyard.
“Sunset, you remember the battle of the bands, correct?” Daphnes asked Sunset, wondering if the change in history changed Sunset’s memories of the events.
“Yeah, although after we broke the sirens’ gems it’s a little fuzzy. I remember something with a triangle and a robot, but nothing clear until the Dazzling get booed off the stage. Why?” Sunset said, curious why he asked.
“Then do you remember this?” Daphnes asked, bringing out his Calico M950.
“I do, and also, why are the Dazzlings asleep?” Sunset said.
“Lack of their crystals, which is the source of their magic, could cause drowsiness… either that or motion sickness,” Daphnes said, proposing two theories. The group then entered the Heart of Gold bridge.
“I dunno… Anyway, here’s what Eddie’s able to see.” Serif said, informing both Daphnes and Sunset of where he found Dimentio.
“Well? Where is he?!” everyone said.
“Here,” Serif responded, showing the two of what was happening.
“ALLLLLLLRIGHTY!!! HERE WE GO!” Bill Cipher said. All the villains had gathered at the seal of Darkness.
“Let’s get this party started!” Flowey said, as Bill prepared the final steps of the ritual.
“We got our power source, and the final chant’s in this schoolgirl’s book,” Dimentio said.
“Oh, look. These siren gems have a buncha power restrictors and mind control spells on ‘em,” Bill said.
“Wait, they were being mind-controlled? I think that’s a first for us to face mind-controlled enemies,” Sunset said.
“Well, that’s ironic,” Serif said.
“Yknow, I want to ask how, but I’m really interested to see what’s going to happen, and a bit scared,” Rainbow Dash said.
“The mind controllers are being mind-controlled,” Serif said with a chuckle.
“Those’ll have to go,” Bill Cipher continued, hitting the gems with his power. Once Bill’s blast hit, the gems changed. At first, all three were red, but now one was blue, one was green, and one was red.
“Are those their original gem colors? I’m kinda curious which gem belongs to which siren, is anyone else curious about that?” Daphnes asked.
“Now then,” Bill said, bringing out Sunset’s journal.
“SEICAFLO SEROLF OMA DOUQ TSE SITAS!” he screamed. Then all Fangea began to shake. The Bloody Sigil began to glow, with the energy from the siren gems going to the Infernal Obsidian. Then the Dark Candles flared up, and the obelisk fired a beam of Dark fire and energy that hit the Serpent Seal along with eight other beams from the Dark Candles. Then suddenly the Serpent writhed, then died, then shattered, rocking Fangea with the explosion. Then all went white.
When the blinding light cleared, the obelisk was tipped over, and in the center of the sigil was a human-shaped entity. cloaked in pure black armor covered in spikes, a cape, crimson red, torn from battle, and eyes piercing red, whilst holding two twin blades, one was an even more demonic Sword of Demise, the other the Dark Sword of a fandom destroyed long ago known as Swords of Fate. This being was known only as Darkness. Daphnes felt a wave of fear crash through him. For the first time in eons, his malice was tamed due to fear.
“FOR MILLENNIA I LAY IN SLUMBER, SEALED BY HEROES OF OLD, WHO HATH AWAKENED ME FROM MY PRISON?” Darkness said, ominous in his voice.
“Master, thy servants remain loyal! We hath shattered the seal, so that you may complete thy conquest without her interference,” Dimentio said.
“Dost thou say that she is deceased?” Darkness said.
“Indeed. As the king banished thee, master, so has he banished her,” Frieza said.
“I sense dissent among our numbers,” Darkness said.
“He has knowing, we must flee,” Fawful said to Ridley, quietly.
“Master, if you allow, I gotta give some stuff back to their owners, we don’t need it anymore and they do. If ya need me, that’s where I am,” Bill Cipher said, teleporting away.
“As you wish, Cipher. We will not be needing the Gems of the Sirens any longer,” Darkness said.
“If I may bring good news,” Ganondorf said, then waited for Darkness’s approval.
“Indeed you shall, Dragmire,” The entity said.
“With thy return, the realm of Subspace is within reach, their armies ours for the taking,” Ganondorf finished, hopeful for the opportunity to lead Subspace troops.
“I see… With Subspace, all of Fangea will fall before our might,” Darkness said.
“My tidings are less pleasant,” Demigra said. “I have discovered that Nightmare Moon has left our ranks, and betrayed several of our secrets to the servants of light. But I know of the perfect punishment. Her sister’s apprentice is in a world thought safe, however, Bill could lead our armies there. Due to situational factors, retaliation will be nearly impossible.”
“Interesting… There is one factor I must see for myself during our battle.” Darkness said.
“The king is dead,” Frieza said.
“And yet his spirit is alive and well, and within another,” Darkness said.
“I’ve seen the heir the spirit has chosen. He is but a boy, no challenge for thy power,” Dracula said.
“I see… Than I will hold back 90% of my power,” Darkness said.
“Thou wilt still be victorious. Fangea is practically defenseless. Thus, it is OURS!” Frieza said.
“Whaddya say, Master? Wanna bring back the good ol’ days?” Flowey said.
“Let us begin our invasion of Fangea. Bring our forces victory to fruition!” Darkness said, then all the villains cheered.
“TO WAR!” Dracula yelled, as Darkness created an army of dark soldiers in medieval armor and weapons. Then various portals opened, one of which admitted Dimentio to the gate of Darkness’s realm, leading the full might of the Subspace army. Then the army of Darkness with all it’s parts began their march.
“His power… H-he’s so much stronger than Nerdlord!” Daphnes said, petrified out of fear holding his chest as he was hyperventilating.
“Easy now, we can take him down, we just need to try harder than we did against the villains alone,” AppleJack said.
“I don’t think it’ll be that simple,” Serif said.
“W-w-we need to keep fighting, right?” Fluttershy said, scared.
“Oh boy, we’re in for a terrible summer,” PinkiePie said. Then one of the windows in the bridge opened, and the three gems were flung through it.
“And I’d book if I were you. Some biiiiig stuff’s about to blow,” Bill Cipher said through the window.
“Tell Darkness he’ll have to face millions in order to take us down!” Daphnes said, mustering his courage up to face his fear.
“Ughn… What!?” Adagio said, waking up with a start.
“Oh you’re awake! How was your nap?” Daphnes said before Aria grabbed him by the scruff of his neck, which caused him to scream for 1 second.
“WHERE ARE WE?! ANSWER ME! NOW!” She yelled before Daphnes flicked her forehead.
“Dagi, I don’t have my gem,” Sonata said worriedly.
“Hey, what’s your gem color by the way?” Daphnes asked.
“I think that if you give us our gems, it will become apparent,” Adagio said.
“Alright then, here you go,” Daphnes said, giving the Dazzlings their gems.
“Daphnes, are you sure about this?” Sunset said, skeptical of their trustworthiness.
“I trust them. If that’s not enough, than I don’t know what is,” Daphnes said, calming down from his hyperventilation. Adagio put on the red gem, Sonata the green, and Aria the blue.
“Adagio’s gem didn’t change,” Rarity observed.
“Does that mean she’s a bad guy?” PinkiePie said, before Serif slapped her.
“I think that’s her natural gem color Pinkie, Don’t assume that red is a dark color outright,” Daphnes said.
“I’m hungry,” Sonata said.
“We can go out to feed. You know that friendliness spell, yes?” Adagio said.
“FRIENDLINESS?!?!?” PinkiePie said, her jaw hitting the floor.
“Yeah, we can feed on any kind of magic, not just negative,” Aria said.
“Wait, you feed on any type of magic? That’s impressive!” RainbowDash said, extremely surprised. The sirens started to sing. This was a different song, one of harmony. Sunset saw a pink mist come from her and her friends, but when the sirens started to breathe it, their gems started sparking and they had to stop.
“*sigh* I guess no positive energy for us,” Adagio said, leaving the Heart of Gold.
“I do have something that might work...” Daphnes said, bringing out a small amount of malice.
“I’m tired of negative energy! It’s so gross!” Sonata pouted.
“It’s all we can eat, so shut up!” Aria said.
“Let’s head to that high school. We might be able to get something there,” Adagio said.
“I think there is something that might work,” Daphnes said, bringing out a fragment of his malice.
“They’re already gone,” Serif said, amused.
“We need to get them back to the Heart of Gold quickly!” Sunset said, fearing for Canterlot High.
“I’ll get them back, even if I have to drag them by their metaphorical tails,” Daphnes said, walking out of the Heart of Gold after the Dazzlings.
It was a normal day at Canterlot High. Everyone was at lunch. The Mane Seven’s absence had gone completely unnoticed.
“Remember, stay in the background. We go in, we feed, we leave,” Adagio said, at the edge of the cafeteria, so far unnoticed.
“Wait, don’t do it!” Sunset said, trying to catch up to them.
“We need to!” Aria said. Then the sirens entered the cafeteria.
“Hey! Look who it is!” Snips called out, as the entire school looked in the Dazzlings’ direction.
“I don’t think we got appropriate payback for what you did to us,” Flash Sentry said.
“Stay back, all of you!” Daphnes said rushing into the room, and holding his blade.
“Leave the Sirens alone or I’ll blow the caps off the lot o’ ya!” Serif said, brandishing his AK-47s.
“Ha! Without their mermaid powers, they have to rely on bad cosplayers they probably used their feminine wiles to charm into helping them!” Snails said.
“Shut up! It’s not like that at all!” Aria yelled
“And besides, I’m taken already!” Daphnes said, remembering Nashi.
“They’ve got Sunset Shimmer under their control! Quick! Get them! Save Sunset Shimmer!” Trixie yelled, picking a banana peel up off the ground.
As she threw the banana peel, it was blocked by a glowing shield, conjured by Pit.
Then all the students were struck with knives. “I wouldn’t do that if I were you. After all, this game is getting too fun!” Flandre said, regretting nothing and smiling.
“Now all of you respect a woman, or I’ll teach you to,” Bayonetta said. Immediately Daphnes activated 10% of the power of the Triforce and, when Snips threw a tray at Sonata, punched it back at him with minimal effort.
“I would strongly recommend standing back, Sonata.” Delta said, appearing from Daphnes’ Sheikah Slate once again.
Meta Knight flew in, knocking a food cart into the way of the door, preventing the teachers from accessing the cafeteria. Then Roy hit Flash with a critical hit, taking care not to kill him. Goku knocked out several students, and Vegeta even more. Krillin and Yamcha tried to help, but got hit way more than they hit back, but Krillin throwing his own weight more than Yamcha, but both were damaged considerably.
Krillin Owned Count +10
Simon then threw crosses at several students, pinning them against the wall.
“Sorry guys, but I truly trust the Sirens… regardless if they’re under mind control or not anymore,” Sunset mourned as one of her classmates went flying over her head.
“THAT’S WHAT YOU GET! AND I GUESS YOU ALL WANT SOME TOO! NGAHHHHHHHHHHH” Undyne, who had thrown the student, said.
Immediately Daphnes grabbed onto the floor, and threw a giant boulder at a student, which knocked them outside onto the football field. “One down, hundreds more to go,” Daphnes said, readying his blade once more.
“I can’t deal with this anymore!” Ichigo said, cutting a student down with Zangetsu out of rage.
“Calm down! We don’t need to cut anyone up!” AppleJack said.
“Then let’s keep them out of range,” Sasuke said, keeping Flash from Adagio. “Inferno style: Flame Control!”
Flash was burned by Sasuke's jutsu, aggravating him further. “Grrrr… Stupid ninja wanna-be! You know none of that crap’s real and I could call the police on you for it, right?” he yelled at Naruto, who had also struck him.
“Rrrgh! THEN LET’S SETTLE THIS IN CHAKRA MODE!” Naruto said, enraged at Flash for insulting the shinobi way of life, and activating Kurama Chakra mode. Flash ran at Naruto with a piece of pipe, only for him get thrown by a Planetary Rasengan. Naruto then summoned Gamabunta who launched Flash through the roof, then the shinobi launched Flash back down with another Rasengan.
“Time to give you girls a haircut!” Trixie yelled at the other end of the cafeteria, holding one of Sakuya’s knives and approaching Sonata.
“I don’t think so,” Wii Fit said, kicking her in the face and turning to Sonata. “Are you all right? I didn’t like how she was looking at you,” she said.
“Hey guys, look! The aliens came to take the sirens away!” Snips said, pointing at the very destroyed roof and the ship that could be seen flying over Canterlot through the hole Naruto had made.
Immediately Daphnes looked at it. “That’s no mothership… It’s a star destroyer,” Daphnes said.
“Oh no!” Luigi said, as the doors on the underside started to open. Dark matter fell out of the ship, some assembling into humanoid shapes in medieval armor, some assembling into shapes that many there knew all too well, ever since that day at the midair stadium.
“It can’t be… Subspace is returning!” Zelda screamed, scared but willing to help.
“AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! It’s TIIIIIIIIIIIME!” Bill Cipher yelled, descending from the star destroyer.
“These beings… ” Sunset said, before a dark soldier stuck its sword through her chest. She was instantly trophied. The soldier then set its sights on Rock Lee
“CIPHEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” Daphnes shouted and turned into his malice form and slashed open several primids.
“What an interesting piece for a collection...” Dracula said, picking up Sunset.
“Put her down Father, or should I call you Dracula,” Alucard said.
“We gotta fight these guys! Come on!” Captain Falcon said, charging in.
“Why should we? They’re the Dazzlings’ problem!” Flash said.
“DID YOU SEE WHAT THEY DID TO SUNSET?!” Trixie yelled at Flash.
“Sunset’s different, now if you’re going to act like a bunch of idiots, you might as well leave, because these guys won’t care who they kill, be it you or us,” Sasuke said, grabbing his blade and taking down multiple Primids. Immediately something struck Daphnes to the ground, leaving him in his base form severely weakened, as the atmosphere grew more and more tense.
“Daphnes, wounds sustained could be fatal, activating healing unit,” Delta said, activating the Healing Unit.
“Nothing’s working!” Chrom yelled, slashing the dark soldiers but his sword didn’t affect them- no one’s anything did. Only the primids and other subspace enemies could be harmed, the dark soldiers untouchable.
“We can hurt the subspace punks, but not the dark troops,” Serif noted. “Let’s hope they can’t make very many of them.”
“Give back Sunset, creep!” Snips said, striking Dracula with a tray.
“You dare strike me?!” Dracula said, enraged at Snips’s insolence before hitting Snips with a bolt of fire.
“Begone! You don’t belong in this world, monster! And kid, run!” Richter said, protecting Snips.
“We can’t take much more of this!” Pit said.
“Lucky you, you won’t have to! It’ll all be over soon,” Flowey said.
As Daphnes looked, he saw a subspace bomb, but it was different. Instead of an X on the front, there was a strange symbol, the same one that was glowing in the sky over Fangea where the Serpent Seal used to be, and there were no R.O.Bs attached. “STOP THAT BOMB!” he said, trying to reach it.
“Ah ah ah, wouldn’t want to permanently damage an ally,” Dimentio said, holding Sunset’s trophy as a shield.
“As you can see, with Dr Eggman’s modifications, the subspace bomb goes from a liability, requiring an extinct race of robots, to a tactical asset and quite possibly the lifeblood of your plan,” Frieza reported to Darkness on the bridge of the star destroyer.
“Excellent. Indeed, this makes our plan a great deal easier,” Darkness said, satisfied. “But ground forces are being met with staunch opposition.”
“The two minutes are about finished. There is no possible way they can do anything,” Frieza said.
“Hey guys? What’s this timer counting down to?” Snails asked, pointing at the bomb, which had 3 seconds left.
“OH SHI-” Flash said, then the bomb detonated, and all of Canterlot City was transformed into a gaping hole of black. Where the school once stood, only darkness remained.
“Is everyone OK?” Captain Falcon asked. He, Meta Knight, Fox, Falco, Wolf, and Samus had beamed as many people as they could to their ships, but they couldn’t get all the citizens of Canterlot, though they did save all the fighters.
“I… didn’t save them. I didn’t do what I was supposed to do...” Daphnes said, his body nearly broken and his magic completely drained. He coughed out 3 pints of blood, and the Triforce slowly faded from his hand, before it reappeared on his hand with a golden light, and was recharging his magic.
“Activating Healing Unit,” Delta said, as he activated the healing unit, and a green aura surrounded Daphnes.
“I was able to beam most the city to the Halberd, but not all,” Meta Knight said.
“! Where’s AppleBloom? You better show her to me, safe and sound!” AppleJack said.
“Like I said, I couldn’t get everyone. I’ll check with the others,” Meta Knight said. After a short pause, he reported back. “Nothing.”
“Then that would mean-” Fluttershy couldn’t even finish.
“What about Scootaloo!?” RainbowDash said.
“And SweetieBelle?” Rarity said.
“...Gone,” Falco confirmed.
“Oh no. SUNSET! Please tell me you got her, please?” Fluttershy said.
“...No. Even before the bomb, Dracula had captured her,” Richter said.
“Anyone else we couldn’t beam up?” Daphnes said, getting up and holding his bloodied shoulder.
“A lot. At least half the school's been taken, and I haven't even started looking anywhere else. That black hole engulfed the whole city,” Serif said, tossing Daphnes his sword, which Daphnes had accidentally dropped on the way into the Medical Bay. Immediately Daphnes caught it and sheathed it, whilst the Healing Unit was restoring Daphnes’ physical strength, stopping his bleeding and restoring him to full health.
“Everything… Our friends, our parents, our lives,” Fluttershy started to cry.
“So… what next?” Adagio asked, trying to change the subject.
“We hold them back as best as we can… Even if we do figure out where they’re attacking next, we need to hold our ground and get stronger,” Daphnes said, cleaning the blood that he coughed out.
“We also need to find somewhere to put all the displaced,” Goku said. “Anyone know anywhere that wasn’t caught in the blast?”
“Well we could always try-” Eddie started.
“NO!” Serif yelled.
“I know of somewhere, but the last time I was there there were… incidents,” Vice Principal Luna said.
“Of the magical kind,” RainbowDash explained.
“Then where is it?” Kakashi said.
“We’re running out of options. I say we don’t care about history,” Vegeta said.
“If you really don’t care, I’ll tell you,” Vice Principal Luna said.
Gloriosa Daisy was working on her new dock when she saw giant metal shapes pass overhead.
“ALIENS! THE ALIENS ARE COMING!” Timber Spruce yelled, running up to her.
“Something is,” Gloriosa said, noticing the shapes, which looked like spacecraft, landing nearby, and the bottom of one of the ships opening. Suddenly there was a crash, and the dock was destroyed for a fifth time as Yamcha crashed through it.
“DANG IT YAMCHA, I TOLD YOU TO NOT FALL STRAIGHT OUT!” Daphnes yelled, before landing where the dock was and repairing it.
“Can I help you?” Gloriosa said.
“We kinda need to repurpose your little camp here,” Serif said.
“Because we’re dealing with some… dark issues, after Canterlot High was taken over by an evil entity known as Darkness,” Daphnes explained.
“And some former students have told me about a cave with some magic geodes inside that if linked with the TARDIS’s-” The Doctor started.
“Don’t bore her to death with the details!” Naruto yelled before getting elbowed in the stomach by Sasuke.
“Who?!” Gloriosa said, scared of her secret coming to light.
“Not important, we just need a place to keep the students of Canterlot High so that way they aren’t caught in the cross fire… However, I have read that there is an interesting type of fruit that is said to grant the power to equal, if not surpass, the power of a planet that naturally grow within this forest. Do you know where one is?” Daphnes asked, bringing out a picture of a Miracle Fruit.
“...No. But please, don’t talk about the magic. There is this businessman who comes over every so often to ensure my payments are on schedule and he’d close this place so fast if he saw actual magic on the premises,” Gloriosa said.
“Uhhh, yeah, about the businessman, did he have a tie with a dollar sign?” Scout asked.
“So, yeah,” Engie said, immediately building a Respawn Generator.
“Can I please stab one of you idiots?” Daphnes asked, bringing out his blade.
“Nah, leave Filthy Cash dead. It’s a service to the world he’s dead,” Serif said.
“I wasn’t buildin’ it for him, I was buildin’ it for him,” Engie said, pointing to Heavy, which Daphnes grabbed by the neck and was about to stab him through the lung. Immediately as he did so, he pushed heavy backward off his blade and Heavy re-spawned with no injuries.
“If you were one of my students, I would’ve had you expelled,” Vice principal Luna muttered angrily.
“But we ain’t, so BOOM!” Scout said.
“Trust me when I say this, I was eager to stab you, Boston boy,” Daphnes said, pointing directly at Scout.
“Anyway, Doctor, you said you could make a portal to Fangea here?” Sasuke asked.
“Yes, I can,” The Doctor said.
“Then go ahead and make it, by all means,” Daphnes said, swinging his blade to the side and it became as clean as a whistle.
“The portal’s nice, but what exactly is going on? This all seems rather unnecessary for a one week camp stay. Wait, that’s not what’s happening here, is it?” Gloriosa said after the Doctor established a new Equestria portal.
“We’re not here to camp. We’re here for war,” Serif said, and when he did, everyone felt anew the gravity of the situation.
“This may be the Second Dark Invasion, and we’ve no heroes to stop Darkness except Daphnes and Serif,” Ozpin said, beaming down with the members of Team RWBY.
“So you’re the guy? Thought you’d look taller,” Yang said, sounding disappointed.
“You’re really judging him by his height? I’m pretty sure you said that appearances can be deceiving, Yang,” Ruby said, giving her sister a subtle hint of snark.
“Hey, you remembered what I taught you 3 years ago!!” Yang said.
“Well duh, I kicked off your lessons with a ‘Yang’!” Ruby said, as Weiss facepalmed, Papyrus screamed, and Sans laughed.
“...Ignoring that, An honor to meet you all, Weiss Schnee, Heiress of the Schnee Dust company, and member of Team RWBY… Even if they’re being idiots at the time,” Weiss said, introducing herself to Daphnes, who already had cut down a tree out of anger, due to the fact he drew blood from another life, much like he did with the spy following him and his team.
“...Sorry… It’s a habit of mine I made, due to me being prone to violence. Anyway, My name is Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule I, Or Zeldalord, or Daphnes, or whatever you prefer,” Daphnes said, before putting the tree back in place and restoring its life using the Song of Healing on an Ocarina he carried around on his neck, before spotting a Miracle Fruit out in the open.
“Well… That’s stupidly convenient.” Daphnes said, before picking it up and putting it in his pouch.
“Yeah, it feels too easy,” Serif said, agreeing that finding a Miracle Fruit on the Ground was stupidly convenient.
Wait, that’s a little too far.
“Umm, you even said your character is aware, 30-boy.”
NOT YOU AGAIN!
“Yes me again, and, if I remember correctly, you said a bad word.”
What?! Where?!
“Last chapter. I quote: ‘OH SHI-’”
I cut it off! No one will know!
“Actually, everyone will know. Point is, we’re gonna sing the song.”
Ugh, fine.
“Alright then, every 4th wall breaker, to the screen.”
Hades brought Sans, Pinkie Pie, Pit, Discord, Fawful, Bill Cipher, Flowey, Palutena, Serif, Viridi, Daphnes(reluctantly), and Dimentio on screen. Then they all sang for you.
Then I put the barely working 4th wall back together and continued with the story.
“I guess you’ll be wanting to work out living arrangements?” Gloriosa said.
“That’s correct, we want every last member of Canterlot High to be transferred here… until it’s over, at least… By the way, what was with that song, Serif?” Daphnes asked.
“Don’t worry about it,” Serif said.
“I’d be happy to lend my land, on one condition,” Gloriosa said.
“Oh, of course, what is it?” Daphnes asked.
“That you keep the fighting away from here. My great-grandfather started this camp and I really don’t need it destroyed,” Gloriosa answered.
“Deal, we’ll make sure to keep the battle as far away from here as possible,” Daphnes said, shaking Gloriosa’s hand.
“Thank you, and thank you for making sure I can keep my camp,” Gloriosa said to Daphnes and Spy.
“My pleasure, Mademoiselle,” Spy said.
“Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’ve got a lot of people to make safe, comfortable, and happy,” Gloriosa said.
