Yoshi had fallen silent the longer their trek into the eerie swampland took. His eyes were on a constant swivel in attempt to stay alert for any oncoming dangers, but all he was greeted by was the swamp's uninviting scenery and the cold rain that hit his snout before sliding down his smooth skin. It was an unsettling feeling, but it wasn't one he was entirely unfamiliar with. Similar sensations often rose up whenever he found himself near one of Bowser's fortresses or the poisonous swamps around the Mushroom Kingdom. It was far from a comforting feeling, but he would make do.

As the voices began to invade his own mind, he remained rather unfazed. Maybe he was to naive to care about them or maybe unfamiliar voices merely had little effect. Either way he remained steadfast in his heart. The same couldn't be said for his companions though. His eyes darted towards Mog and Shadow first, noticing how both seemed to react quickly to the voices and cried out their own concerns. While he wanted to encourage them, he found himself lacking much of a voice in the moment. No matter how desperately he wanted to yell out, nothing came.

That was concerning in itself, but Yoshi remained calm as his head turned towards Falcon. Unlike the others, he wasn't speaking out, but from his body language alone the dino could tell something wasn't right. The last thing they needed was him falling into some kind of despair, especially since he had taken the role of their leader. If he went down because of some voices, what kind of example would that set for the rest of them? It would only invite the dread in. That was the worse case scenario and one Yoshi wished to avoid if even possible. But how was he supposed to snap the Captain out of his daze without a voice?

His nostrils flared in irritation at the thought and he briefly let himself ponder possibilities before one finally settled in the forefront of his mind. Without a second thought, he trudged through the thick swamp and rammed all his weight up against Falcon in attempt to draw him back into reality with no real damage done. It was a hopeful thought, but it was all he could currently do.

Through some quick words and a drawn diagram, Pichu understood the general gist of what Layton wanted him to do. So with a nod of affirmation, the little Pokémon mon hurriedly bit onto the corner of the tarp as he scaled up Layton’s arm, dragging the cloth along as he then hopped onto the catapult itself. With Pichu’s intrinsic climbing skills it didn’t take any time at all for him to skillfully scale up the long beam and reach the top. From his viewpoint Pichu spore a brief glance at the ongoing battle, managing to find some comfort in the Gao’s diminishing numbers thanks to Byleth’s, Robin’s, and Chrom’s efforts. But he’d tear his eyes away from the sight and spit out the tarp from his mouth as he quickly got to work tying the tarp into a sail.

His job complete, Pichu hopped down from the catapult and landed atop Layton’s hat, steadying himself before then finally jumping down onto a crate nearby. Chrom, Robin, and Sora joined the two not long after as everyone lent an ear to the professor. So, while he and the fire emblem representatives continued the fight against the Gao, Layton intended for the youngest members of the group to flee using the catapult, leaving the adults to deal with the rest of the battle on their own.

“Pi?” Pichu stole another glance back towards the battle before looking back towards Layton, his face scrunched up with an odd mixture of concern and offense. He didn’t doubt the abilities of his fellow fighters, heck Byleth was doing quite the number on the army all by himself! But still, Pichu couldn’t help but be a little concerned. And, maybe, just maybe, he wasn’t entirely a fan of how Layton grouped them as if they were just a bunch dumb kids when they were anything but!…well, excluding Luke. However, with Sora expressing his approval (albeit with some hesitance) Pichu gave a small huff but nodded in agreement.

“Pichu!”

In that case, they should go grab Luke, shouldn’t they? If he remembered right Layton had shooed the kid off to go hide inside the castle, hopefully he was still there. Hopping down from the crate, Pichu looked up at the others before tilting his head in the direction of the castle’s entrance.

“Pi!”

Then, not waiting to see if they understood what he meant, Pichu scampered off towards the abandoned palace, off to go collect the boy. Thankfully, with the castle located behind the battle and its general proximity to the catapult, Pichu had no trouble scurrying over towards the entrance, slipping through the massive doors and entering inside.

The moment he stepped inside, the sounds of the battle were muffled to nothing but a murmur as the fortified walls, while visibly deteriorated with age, still served their purpose remarkably well. Yet Pichu little comfort in this fact, as with the castle halls bathed in darkness, the place was certainly rather eerie. Pichu however had no time to be a scaredy torracat, and so he marched further inside on the lookout for the blue hatted boy. Paws cupped around his mouth, Pichu called out the boy’s name.

“Pichuuuu!”

Shulk was prepared to continue on, even jumping down to the ledge below before he heard the commotion behind him. New voices quickly hit his ears and his initial reaction was to reach for the hilt of the Monado, but as he did, he turned to look behind himself. As his fingers wrapped around the blade's neck, he was met with a sight he hadn't expected. They weren't under attack. No, it was quite the opposite: it was new, or rather returning, allies.

Easing up his grip on his weapon, a sigh of relief escaped from Shulk's lips and he quietly watched as the four situated themselves after the collision. It left him in an awkward position. He wasn't part of the whole ordeal nor did it feel right for him to interject, not that he had much to say. He hardly knew the pair that had joined them. During his inclusion during the Realm's fourth tournament when he had been invited, the Climbers had not and during the previous one, well... Galeem and Dharkon had made things difficult and his own image hadn't been all too great or that was the burden he placed upon himself. He was probably overthinking things per usual, but who could blame him. He had been puppeteered at the forefront of Galeem's army. The hazy memories still lingered in his mind and haunted him no matter how hard he pushed them to the depths of his mind.

Shaking his head, he decided to let the matter be and allow the group behind him to figure things out as he pushed a little ways ahead. It spared him from awkward greetings, which unfortunately he was great at, and it allowed him to ponder over his vision for a moment on his own. However, as much as he wanted to get lost in his own mind, the sights up ahead prevented him from doing such.

In the near distance, his eyes could make out the shape of what looked like makeshift tents. There were no signs of movement around them, but it gave the visionary some hope that something might be up ahead. Deciding to look over it quietly as he waited, Shulk relaxed himself and seemingly spaced out for the time being.
 
Pit

Interactions: Pyra/Mythra ( Ploegy Ploegy ), Lana ( Shroomie Shroomie )


Pyra's sweet smile and statement caused Pit to rub the back of his head, a sheepish smile spreading on his face as his cheeks turned red. "Oh! Aww, it's nothing, Pyra. I was just stating the truth, that's all!" Pit's eyes then became downcast at the mention of Mythra. "Poor Mythra. She has a kind heart, one with so much love in it, but she's so afraid of showing and receiving it."

Pyra moved to comfort the Waddle Dee, and from simple observation Pit was able to pick up on what made the little critter so upset. Pit realized that this was no small matter: this Waddle Dee was a big fan of the Super Smash Brothers, and its autographed poster had been destroyed in the attack upon the beach town! Well, an upset fan just isn't acceptable, Pit firmly decided! He absolutely loved his fans, even though it can be a little grating to be asked to say the "I never learned how to read," and "Floor ice cream gives you health" lines over and over again. Dubs... What can he do?

At the sound of Pyra's gentle voice, the Waddle Dee looked up at her with a face streaked with tears. Its eyes went wide. Oh! It's Pyra again! At the Aegis's kind suggestion of finding something better to have autographed, the fan's eyes bulged and its little hands and feet kicked with excitement! "Wanya!"

Pit pondered a moment, then snapped his fingers as he was struck with an idea. "I've got it!" Beaming, the angel took out the horn of Aquamentus and offered it out to Pyra and the Waddle Dee. "How cool would this be as a souvenir? The Waddle Dees played a big part in our victory this day; I can't think of a better trophy!"

The Waddle Dee let out a high-pitched squee of delight! It was a wonder the little fellow didn't pop! Pit and Pyra, two members of the legendary Super Smash Brothers, right here, right now, speaking to it! And not only that, but it will have their autographs on the horn of the creature they defeated! Wow! Wow! Wow! WOW!!

Pit couldn't help but laugh. The Waddle Dee's joy and energy were infectious! But it was short-lived as the door to the inn slammed open and another Waddle Dee ran inside, a blue-haired young woman following in pursuit! The angel captain's warrior instincts kicked in instantly, and the two swords that made up the Bow of Palutena appeared in his hands as he went into a stance.

"Hold it!" Pit ordered, authority in his voice. "Who are you and what do you want?"

Whatever it was, he was not going to allow more harm to come to the Waddle Dees! They're big fans after all!

Pikachu looked up at Samus, a puzzled expression on her fuzzy features. "Pikachu?" Getting Corrin was a great idea as Corrin can take the form of a dragon and they can all pursue Dark Pit from the air, but Pikachu wasn't sure if Dark Pit could be convinced to return at all. As far as the Pokemon knew, the only way to stop Dark Pit was through force. Too bad angels can't be caught in Pokeballs, Pikachu thought, that would make things a lot easier!

Pikachu returned her eyes to the sky. She couldn't see a thing through the clouds. She had to rely on Samus and her amazing suit of armor to keep track of the rogue angel!

A black iridescent feather fell from the heavens. Pikachu leaped into the air and caught it easily. There was no doubt about it: this is one of Dark Pit's feathers! They were on the right track!



Up in the clouds, Dark Pit had disappeared from sight, but a trail of molted feathers and disturbed clouds marked the reflection's path of travel. With these obvious clues, there was no way Cream and Cheese could lose their quarry!

Or so it seemed!

Behind Cream and Cheese, Dark Pit cautiously poked his head out from a pile of clouds he had been hiding in. Samus's plan of waiting out his flight was a good one with the exception of one thing: Both Pits can walk on clouds!

Dark Pit smirked. He deliberately left those feathers and disturbed the clouds. It was a false trail! At least this way, he can go off on his own and lose his pursuers, and if Cream followed the trail she will avoid those strange golden orbs he had seen floating in the sky just seconds ago. Dark Pit was vexed by the Super Smash Sisters' insistence on keeping him with the group, but he wasn't about to let an innocent child be blasted out of the sky.

Silent as a shadow, Dark Pit slipped out of his hiding spot and faced westward. He knew the false trail will not delay the others for long, especially one as sharp as Samus Aran. He'd best put as much distance between himself and the others as quickly as possible!

The dark angel took a few steps and stopped. Far below him was the Lake Shore and the other Super Smash Brothers, and for a moment Dark Pit felt hesitation. Deep down he knew Samus and the others were right: the Smash Realm was in grave trouble yet again. The last two times the Realm was in peril, the Super Smash Brothers triumphed only by the skin of their teeth, and that was with all of them together!

Dark Pit huffed softly and dismissed it all. He really did not want to be trapped in Samus's ship with a bunch of other people and beings. It was his nature to be alone.

... He'd best get moving.



Nurse Joy was taken aback as Sheik grabbed Corrin and dragged the princess to her. The tone of Sheik's voice and the urgency of the situation spurred the nurse into action. "Y-yes. Of course!" She took out a Pokeball and pointed it toward an empty space near by. "Audino, I need your assistance!"

The red beam that shot from the Pokeball took the shape of the kind-hearted Hearing Pokemon. Audino, who was feeling much better after the incident last night, responded with a happy, "Audino!"

"Audino,"
Nurse Joy ordered as she gestured to Corrin. "Use Heal Pulse on Corrin, please."

Audino eagerly obeyed. It conjured a pink ball of energy between its hands, then spread its arms wide, shattering the orb and releasing waves of soothing healing light! Big the Cat closed his eyes as the wave made contact with him and relaxed his body.

"Mmm," Big hummed dozily. "That feels nice..."

Pyra turned her head as Pit walked over and offered a solution to the Waddle Dee's current predicament. Was it really okay for them to give a Waddle Dee such a thing? She wasn't sure, but she wasn't going to argue it. The last thing she wanted was to upset the little guy any further than he had been. She remained silent and simply nodded in agreement.

Before they could even proceed though, the commotion outside quickly caught her attention and caused her head to turn towards the door before another Waddle Dee came bursting inside with a strange, blue haired woman chasing after it. Pit was quick to act on the defensive and confront the pursuer as Pyra's eyes flickered towards the victim. Instantly she noticed the envelope it was carrying and cocked her head as she rose up to her full height and took a step towards the little puffball, leaving the adoring fan be for a moment to address the situation.

"Whatcha got there, little guy?" she asked before crouching in front of the Waddle Dee and gesturing towards the envelope to make her intentions clear. Once she was sure it knew she was going to take it, she did and her eyes gazed upon the familiar red wax seal. It was like the one she had received before her inclusion in the previous tournament. Despite its familiarity, the aegis was struck with confusion. Was there even another tournament?

The thought caused Pyra to fall silent as she pondered it. As far as she was concerned that wasn't the case, but it was hard to deny what she was looking at. Maybe it was some prank? It wasn't uncommon for such things to happen, especially with how some of the other fighters were. The number of times she could recall a certain Waluigi showing up at the Smash House claiming he had received an official invitation was more times than she cared to count. Would someone send an invitation out at a time like this though? They were only supposed to be gathering for a little get together, not a tournament. She supposed it didn't matter. Fact was there was an invite and whether it belonged to the Waddle Dee or Lana was the real issue at hand.

"I'm going to borrow this a moment, okay?" she told the Waddle Dee before she stood up again and held the letter between her fingers. Stepping beside Pit, she held it out for both parties to see before her gaze landed upon Lana. She had no intentions of handing the envelope over to her, but she dared to question her on it.

"Might this be what you are after? I can imagine why something like this would cause such a commotion..."
 

Lana
The White Sorceress

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________

latest

Lana had that adorable little thief right where she wanted them...that is, until she was stopped.

The sorceress quickly looked around as she saw two individuals intervene in the situation. One of them was what appeared to be a young woman dressed in shades of blazing red, her eyes reminding Lana of fire. She had gone towards the Waddle Dee that had stolen her invitation to check on it.
The other, was a young man dressed in white, with...were those wings? The goddess' spear slipped from her hands for a moment as she looked him over. He...was an angel, right? Lana knew these sorts of mythical beings existed, of course, but she had never seen one up close...
She quickly remembered what was going on when he spoke to her in a commanding voice. Her grip on her spear tightened once more as he summoned his own weapons. The deity could not lie- his tone reminded her of the Hyrulean soldiers, and thus reminded her of Link, but she couldn't let herself get distracted. Shaking her head to clear her thoughts, Lana took a breath and answered in the toughest voice she could muster, "I am Lana, the White Sorceress and Guardian of Time. So if you want to pick a fight with me, I won't hesitate to smite you!"

In truth, the deity didn't want to hurt anyone; it was against her nature. But she had learned from experiencing warfare firsthand that the biggest mistake someone could make when encountering someone who was clearly armed was to show fear. Sometimes all it took to make someone back off was a solid bluff!

Her violet gaze flicked from the young man to the girl who accompanied him. She had taken the letter from the Waddle Dee and held it out for her and the hostile angel to see. At her question as to whether the letter was what Lana wanted from the Waddle Dee or not, the sorceress nodded quickly, lowering her weapon. She pointed at the letter and stated, "That little creature took that from me and ran off with it! I was only trying to get it back." She looked at her weapon before looking at the swords wielded by the angel. Slowly, the maiden slung her weapon onto her back. Perhaps a more diplomatic approach was needed.

1c7d51e3d8ee10355b719bc218d14df8.gif
Lana added hastily, "You can read the letter for yourselves. It's an invitation, and it has my name on it. I traveled here via my Gate of Time and, well, I think I might not have ended up in the right place..." she let a soft sigh spill from her lips as she put a finger to her chin in thought. These two did seem to fit the warrior role, and yet she had the peculiar sensation of foreboding. This didn't seem like the place a league of fighters would group together. Aside from them, the only creatures Lana had seen were those cute little orange things that waddled everywhere. But then again, the fiery woman and the commanding divinity could possibly not even be related to what she sought to find...

Her eyes trailed back to the pair as an apologetic smile appeared on her face. "My deepest apologies for bursting in here like a maniac. I guess I'm not the best at first impressions."

Mewtwo was a little stunned by the attitude of the monkey but listened all the same. Everything was becoming clearer now. Another Mewtwo must have fought alongside these people. How? He didn’t know but since he was here, he was going to find out!

“Right!” he said in response to the cranky monkeys exclamation, “I’ve learnt all I need to know!”

He looks over to the Croc and Daisy.

F-Zero_-_Captain_Falcon_as_seen_in_F-Zero_GX_and_F-Zero_AX (1).png

As Captain Falcon continues, he hears footsteps and as he looks to to see the orange-clad bounty hunter, Samus Aran, walks his direction Captain Falcon gasps excitedly with a gidy smile. "Samyyyy~!" Falcon rushes over to hug her only to pass through her entirely. Falcon stands stunned for a moment and slowly looks over his shoulder to see Samus still walking. He catches up to her "Samy? Samy! S-Samy! Sam! S-Samus! Samantha! Samuel! Sam-I-Am! Summersault! Cement! Semantics! Hey! Ms. Aran! Hello? Afternoon! How are you doing?" Falcon tries waving his hands in front of her, snapping, and trying to stand in her way but only passes right through him and doesn't even acknowledge his presence. Falcon was confused but decides to follow her into the livingroom/kitchen area, there he instantly catches sight of Ness happily drinking a glass of milk at the counter. Captain Falcon frowns and slowly to begins to come in behind him with an arm stretched out. Once he's close enough he swings his arm attempting to smack Ness over the head, only for his hand to go through him too. Nessy walks through Falcon with his glass of milk. Falcon looks at his hands for a moment and clutches them. Falcon moves his hands up to feel his face. He can still feel his face. Falcon looks to the living room area and sees Fox and Yoshi sitting on the couch watching the Land Before Time. Yoshi was crying as Little Foot's mother died and Fox was holding a box of tissue just for this moment, as Yoshi has watched this movie about 4 times and this part always got to him. To the all-consuming dinosaur, Mufasa's death had nothing on this scene. Falcon always felt somewhat...Uncomfortable with this scene...He...Knew why. Falcon proceeded onward to the rooms.

Most of the residents of Smash had share rooms so they were all assigned roommates. 3-4 to a room. Back during the first Smash Tournament it was originally two to a room, but as the more fighters came, then mansion had to grow and so did the roommate count. Falcon stops by one of the rooms and attempts to open it only to stop mid-way after figuring out he was just going to phase through the knob. So instead, he phases through the door itself. In it, he saw Ganondorf styling Zelda's hair while she sat in a chair, reading a book on the history of Hyrule. Link, Young Link, and Toon Link were sitting on the floor in a circle with coloring pages spread out around them. Link was coloring in numbered coloring sheets. It made him feel challenged. Young Link often used coloring pencils and stencils. He was always one of those 'light colorists'. Toon Link liked coloring with markers. They all looked fairly happy. Falcon gave them a wave but no one noticed him. With that, Falcon turned and phased back through the door. On the outside, despite Yoshi's best efforts, Falcon was sinking. He was sinking fast. Yet, he kept moving forward. Never looking back, even in his own dreams the man wasn't going to stop. Even with him being waist deep in the swamp.

Lord Lunaris

Lunaris grunted with disgust, "Why did I even build that window?"

He straightened in alarm, Shiri letting out a squeak, as the shadows began to stir. One hand went to the hilt of his scimitar while the other was alight with green flames.

"What now?" the masked Hylian sorcerer growled as the tendrils of shadow twisted and swirled. As if to answer his question, the shadows suddenly shot forward, slithering past lord and fairy, out the door of the Great Hall, and out into the courtyard. There was an immediate commotion as nobles panicked and the royal guard barked orders in an attempt to keep the calm.

Lunaris dashed outside and discovered a crowd gathered around a portal that had materialized in his courtyard. The royal guard surrounded it, weapons at ready. Most of the royal guard were Mii's, but there were also a considerate number of humans and Moblins among them. The remaining nobility, those whose curiosity overcame their panic, murmured amongst themselves.

"Who is that woman? Is she a new member of the Royal Court?"

"Ugh, what a gaudy outfit! Where does she shop? GracieGrace?"

"Hey! Don't insult GracieGrace like that!"

"Oh, I used to look like that once, when I was younger. I couldn't keep the boys away!"

"Lucky them. Now I can't seem to keep you away."

"What was that, dear?"

"N-nothing, sweetheart!"

"This is so unfair! How come Mythra has to cover up while she gets to look like that?"

All talk ceased as the nobles saw Lord Lunaris among them. They silently stepped back to make a pathway for him, and without a word of acknowledgement, Lunaris made his way toward the portal. The Mii Captain intercepted him.

"My Lord! Please stay back! We don't know what this intruder is capable of!"

Not wanting to be impeded, Lunaris vanished with a pop and instantly reappeared behind the captain, and kept walking until he stood right before Cia. His armored fingers casually drummed on the pommel of his scimitar as his eyes slowly trailed up the woman's voluptuous form and met the eyes of her own mask. Lunaris could sense the power radiating from her. An image came to his mind of a black rose with golden thorns that seeped poison; alluring and deadly! Rather than feel threatened, however, Lunaris found himself most intrigued by this stranger.

"Well now," Lunaris finally said, his tone light and smooth. "What have we here? Are you lost?"

Shiri, also sensing the deadly power of the woman before them, hid beneath her lord's cloak.

Despite Inkling’s insistence that she was alright, the other members of the group went to comfort her, as Eight supported the crying squid while Paula enveloped her in a warm hug. Inkling took a moment to calm herself, closing her eyes before taking a deep breath in and out. It was a little embarrassing to have to be comforted by the others like this, especially her fellow agent of all people. But still, it was…nice. Like a heavy weight lifted from her shoulders, a feeling that wasn’t exactly common back in Octo Canyon. And so, she fully allowed herself to fully embrace this moment of vulnerability, melting into Paula’s arms and leaning into Agent 8’s side, muttering a small thank you in the latter’s ear.

As Paula pulled away, Inkling lifted her own eyes to find Joker standing right in front of her, hand outstretched above the squid’s head. Wiping away the stray tears, Inkling gave one final sniffle as Joker gently patted her head, apologizing one moment before thanking her. Even with the language barrier between the human and squid, as Inkling beamed and replied with,

“Wen ka me kyu!”

It was clear Inkling too expressed appreciation towards her fellow fighter. With that, led by the guiding hands of Agent Eight, Inkling followed as everyone made their way towards the chairs. They had their moment to get all emotional, but there was still much to discuss in the meantime.


1715037273838.png


Unsurprisingly, Joker took charge as he began to recount his time at the stadium and all he’d learned while there. Once again, he reaffirmed the fighters’ collective status as wanted criminals, and considering Joker’s part in the stadium’s downfall, Inkling wouldn’t be surprised if whatever bounty on his head doubled or tripled in severity. Now though, they had a name for who had declared them all criminals in the first place.

A man by the name of Lunaris was to blame, someone so powerful he might stand at the level of gods! Such a notion surely would be terrifying to most, and it certainly wasn’t the most comforting information, sure. But for Inkling, it reminded her all too much of Dharkron and Galeem, and if she and the fighters had been able to take them down, then she bet the same might possibly could be said for this lunar guy too. Although fighting those two wasn’t exactly a walk in the park, and they couldn’t have done it without Master Hand (literally) lending his hand during the final stretch…so with him and his crazier counterpart out of the picture…

Inkling winced. Maybe she shouldn’t be so cocky.

Wait, wait, wait! Joker also had some good news for the team. Something called the pillars of creation and destruction might be their keys to taking down Lunaris.

Pillars? Inkling tilted her head as she placed one hand above the other, raising the top palm parallel, as if miming the general shape of a literal support beam, as if to confirm if that’s what Joker was saying. Well, she supposed it didn’t really matter if they were magical columns or not so long as they could actually help them beat Lunaris, so Inkling decided to not question the oddities any further.

Only problem though, this wandering quill fellow apparently hadn’t done a good job telling joker where to actually find said pillars, only providing the possible locations of other fighters and the vague possibility of maybe learning more by talking to any Chozo they come across.

Chozo…that sounded a little bit familiar. Weren’t those the funky bird people that raised a certain bounty hunter?

Looking over to the rest of the group, Inkling cupped her hands around her mouth in the general shape of a beak, and then-

“Caw-caw”

Letting out as best of a bird noise as she could muster, in hopes they got the general gist. considering how limited her own knowledge of them was, it wasn’t exactly she could do much to explain further. Though, for her fellow cephalopod, she could elaborate just the tiniest bit more, explaining in Octarian (quiet enough so she wouldn’t interrupt Joker).

[They are talking space birds]

Before finally returning her attention to the Phantom Thief just as he began to speak with the Nurse. While it wasn’t much, Inkling still took in the morsels of information Nurse Joy had available. Looks like they would really need to put their heads together if they wanted to extrapolate anything further.

Before that, Paula and Noctis posed some pretty important questions. What would happen if Lunaris got to the pillars first and…could Lunaris pose a threat to world's outside of the realm? It certainly wouldn’t be the first time a threat originating in the Smash Realm extended across universes. Although back then everyone had merely been turned to spirits, who’s to say this time they’d even be that lucky.

At that rather concerning hypothetical, Inkling spore a glance towards Eight, the expression on Agent 3’s face clear that her mind was preoccupied with thought of Inkadia, The Splatlands, and their entire world. This wasn’t the first time she nor Eight dealt with a foe who threatened the safety of their entire world, but that in no way finished the responsibility now on the agents’ shoulders. For the sake of the Smash Realm and for the sake of their universe, they would need to throw everything that had into making sure Lunaris is taken down.

The Darknut, a juggernaut of skill and steel, regarded Cyan's swift series of strikes with a discerning eye. Each of Cyan's movements, honed by years of discipline and combat, was met with a calculated parry from the Darknut. The sound of metal on metal echoed ominously across the bridge as the two warriors danced their deadly ballet.

Unfazed by Cyan's agility and technique, the Darknut moved with a precision that belied the bulk of his armor. He blocked the first two strikes with his sword, the impact ringing sharply in the air. The third strike he deflected with a swift turn of his wrist, redirecting the energy of Cyan's attack.

As the fourth strike came, the Darknut stepped forward, using his momentum to counter the blow with a powerful thrust aimed directly at Cyan's midsection, intending to end the duel swiftly. His red eyes glowed briefly under the helmet, a silent testament to his resolve and strength.

"Your honor is commendable, and your skills are worthy," the Darknut spoke, his voice a deep rumble. "But this is the strength of the Darknut Legion. We are forged in battle and hardened by discipline. Show me more, or yield, noble swordsman." His stance remained defensive yet unyielding, prepared for whatever Cyan might bring next in their clash of steel and spirit.

As Sephiroth's chilling monologue echoed through the mushroom forest, the military commander swiftly issued a series of commands over the encrypted channel, adapting their strategy to the supernatural threat posed by their adversary.

"Alpha and Bravo teams, initiate distraction maneuvers. Delta, prepare for sniper engagement on my mark. Echo, get those EMPs—Ethereal Manipulation Pulverizers—ready to deploy. We aim to neutralize his magical capabilities. Foxtrot, standby for rapid extraction of the civilians," the commander instructed with clear precision, his tone betraying no hint of the gravity they faced.

Teams Alpha and Bravo were quick to act, launching a barrage of flashbangs towards Sephiroth's last known position. The devices, engineered to blind and disorient, burst with blinding light and deafening sound, creating a chaotic sensory overload. In the chaos, the soldiers strategically repositioned, always maintaining a safe yet effective distance from Sephiroth.

Simultaneously, Echo team prepared their specialized equipment, the Ethereal Manipulation Pulverizers. These EMPs were unlike conventional military gear; they were designed to disrupt magical energies, temporarily stripping a mage or enchantment-enhanced individual of their abilities. With a well-coordinated effort, the EMPs were deployed around Sephiroth, emitting a pulsating energy that sought to dampen his magical prowess.

As the EMPs activated, sending out waves of energy designed to disassemble ethereal constructs and suppress magical flows, Delta team's snipers took position. With Sephiroth potentially incapacitated from utilizing his magic, they aimed for non-lethal shots designed to incapacitate further, targeting his limbs to impair his mobility and combat effectiveness.

"Delta team, engage. Take your shots," the commander calmly ordered. The soft report of sniper rifles filled the air, the precision of the military training evident as they aimed to neutralize Sephiroth's physical capabilities without causing fatal injuries.

Foxtrot team, meanwhile, moved with efficiency towards Roxas and Isabelle. Approaching discreetly, they signaled to the young fighters,
"We're here for your safety. Follow us, stay low," one of the soldiers instructed quietly. They escorted them towards a pre-arranged extraction point, ensuring they were removed from the immediate danger zone.

Back in the command center, the commander watched the operation unfold through various feeds, ready to adjust the strategy as necessary. This was no ordinary engagement; it required a delicate balance of technological and tactical prowess to manage a threat like Sephiroth.

"Maintain focus, everyone. Watch for any resurgence of his powers or unexpected tactics. Remember, we're dealing with Sephiroth, and he's not to be underestimated," the commander reminded his team, ensuring their vigilance remained high as they continued their meticulously planned operation, each unit playing their critical part in attempting to subdue one of the most formidable entities they had ever faced.

    As the trio descended downward, he looked up at Min Min's face as she answered him. He could see the anxiety in her own expression despite how determined she was to keep up a peppy mindset.

    But all of a sudden, the heavy atmosphere was broken when he and Min Min were knocked to the ground! Lucas let out a grunt of pain as he made contact with the hard Earth underneath him.
    "Ow...what the...?" Lucas muttered, sitting upright in somewhat of a daze.

    He saw that the two that had bumped into Min Min and himself were the Ice Climbers, and they were pretty sorry for their blunder, which was obvious by how much Nana was apologizing. The ARMS fighter had seemed to taken it like a champ, and was brushing off their apologies like it was nothing. Lucas smiled awkwardly and nodded in agreement, dusting his hair and clothes off.
    "Heh...yeah, it's alright, it was just an accident." he mumbled.

    As Min Min and the Ice Climbers talked, the boy looked around and noticed that his fellow psychic had went on a little ways ahead. Deciding to leave the more sociable ones to talk, he quietly walked over to where Shulk stood. He looked up at him for a second, about to ask what he had been looking at, until he too spotted the makeshift tents that sat in the distance.
    "Huh..." Lucas mumbled to himself.

Seeing his efforts to snap Falcon back to normal did little to nothing, Yoshi could feel his own frustration build up inside him though no matter how much he wanted to scream out, he couldn't. He couldn't believe their so called leader was letting himself fall to the very thing he had been hyping them up against. It frustrated him beyond belief!

Running forward as Falcon continued on, Yoshi could see him sinking deeper into the muddied waters and a look of sheer irritation dared to cross his face as his tongue shot out of his mouth and tried looping around his companions body in attempt to either yank him out and fling him aside or temporarily turn him into an egg and put him on the sidelines. The former was the ideal option, but whatever he could manage, IF he could manage either was what he would have to settle with. It would all depend on how he would react when pulled out.

Once he had a grasp on him, Yoshi yanked back hard in attempt to succeed, but instead of saving Falcon he lost his grip and fell backwards into the swamp. His skin crawled with discomfort as he felt the mud cover him more than before. In a panicked tizzy, he jumped up to avoid getting swallowed into the murky depths. His own sorrow hadn't risen enough to consume him to a point that he would start heavily sinking. If things kept going as they were though, he wasn't sure how well he would be able to hold himself. That seed of doubt was enough to cause lingering feelings inside him, but for now he pushed them aside.

His eyes quickly darted to his other companions, seeing if they were alright. For now, it seemed none of them were sinking, but there was no telling if they might, especially if they couldn't find a way to save the Caption from his delusions.

The Gao Captain roared in angered surprise as he was blinded by Byleth's magical light. Immediately after, he felt the swordsman's blade wrap around his middle. He landed heavily upon the sand, having missed Byleth, sliding forward a bit from the momentum. The Gao had heavy bodies that slowed them down; that the Gao Captain could run and pounce with ease was a testament to his strength. No wonder this one was the king of the pride!

The massive beast laughed scornfully. "You seek to trap me, warrior?! Hahaha! Fool!"

He slammed a heavy paw down upon the whip-like blade to trap it before taking it into his teeth. He threw his head back with the intention of either pulling the sword out of Byleth's hand, or yanking the swordsman into the air. Regardless of the result, the Gao Captain snarled at Byleth and inhaled deeply before spewing out another cone of flames!


Layton smiled as he felt the little baby mouse leap from his hat and onto a crate, his task finished. What a reliable little friend! "Thank you, Pichu." Looking to Sora, he put a reassuring hand on his shoulder. Layton was very wise, and knew that while Sora was an incredibly capable fighter, he was no slayer, and immediately picked up on the distress the battle was causing him. A child should not have to bear such a burden. He looked Sora in the eyes and spoke to the teenager in his typical subdued tone. "Sora, please do not take my request as an insult to your abilities. You have a pure and gentle heart: you are not like Professor Byleth and the others, who were raised and molded by warfare. I am no such individual as well, but a stranger in a strange land, and I do not know if I can protect Luke from its dangers as well as you and Pichu can."

Thankfully for Pichu, he didn't have to look far. Luke had been hanging around the entrance, refusing to hide completely away while everyone else was facing the danger, and he had heard everything. Scooping up Pichu, Luke ran out of the castle and toward the Professor. The boy looked close to tears as he protested Layton's plan.

"What are you saying, Professor?! You can't be without your apprentice! We've been in dangerous situations before!"

Layton put his free hand on Luke's shoulder. "Luke, calm down and listen: if something happens, then the task of solving the Puzzle of the Pillars will fall upon you three. I cannot think of anyone more capable. Please understand."

Luke understood, but he didn't want to! He wanted to object and argue, and protest, but he was a True Gentleman in-training, and tantrums were not the behavior of a gentleman. With great effort, Luke managed to fight back his tears, instead replacing it with determination. He nodded once with an affirmative grunt.

Layton smiled and nodded back before raising his head to glance at the battle taking place, and his features became stern. He passed his letter to Luke and the apprentice climbed into the makeshift vehicle. Without a word, Professor Layton drew his sabre and rushed to join the conflict. A Gao intercepted him, only to howl in dismay as Layton threw a handful of sand into its eyes. Layton turned and thrusted his sabre, piercing the nose of another sphynx. It yelped then fell onto its rear, paws clapped over its smarting snout.

"Owowowow!" the Gao cried, tears streaming down its face. "'E gob by nose!"

A third Gao pounced at Layton. The Professor leaped upward and onto the beast's head, making it eat sand, before jumping back down to the ground, whipping around, and sending the blade of his sabre straight into its rump. The Gao let out a loud yowl of pain.

"RRRREOWWWRRR! That's not fair! He's fighting dirty!"

A small frown formed on Ann's lips from Nurse Joy's response. While it did offer some minor information in regards to what the Hands had down with their respective pillars, it still didn't give them a clear idea on where to look. She knew it had been a long shot to hope for anything concrete, but she couldn't help feeling a bit disappointed over it all. Glancing towards Ren, she could see he was no less disappointed, though there was a mix of frustration laced in. His eyes said everything even from behind his mask. She couldn't imagine what had stirred such an emotion in him though. For someone so calm and collected, it was rare. Was it general frustration over the situation or something else entirely? She pursed her lips at the thought and pondered if she should ask him, but given everything that was going on, picking his brain for answers probably wasn't in her best interest. For now, she would let it be.

Ann's gaze didn't go unnoticed as Joker remained silent and lifted a hand up to fiddle with his bangs as he took everything in. There wasn't a lot per se, but combined with what was already floating around in his head, it was hard for his mind to piece it all together. Despite its difficulty, he would have to push through. He was the only one who could!

Still, even if he was the only one that could, he couldn't help but feel frustration from the nurse's final statement. Even Inkling's random bird noises as she confirmed what Chozo were couldn't pull Ren from his negative thoughts. While he knew Joy meant nothing bad from her words, it felt like a slap across the face. He didn't have the same connections as Samus, which in turn only made him feel as if he wasn't the one fit to take on this particular task. It was a feeling long forgotten to the likes of the Phantom Thief. He had never thought of himself as incapable, not since he had gained his powers at least. To have those feelings arise for the first time in so long was uncomfortable for him. Despite those feelings, Ren hardly let them show on his face, only allowing hints of it to linger in the depths of his eyes. He had to assure himself of his worth and quickly.

Art thou forgetting who thou is? Arsene's voice echoed out in the depths of his mind, drawing him from whatever train of thought he was on. When he showed no signs of responding to his rebel soul's question, he pressed on: No, thou art Samus Aran or any of the other highly established Smash Brothers... but thou art one within their ranks... one with a unique skillset no other can lay claim to. Thou art the Trickster... Leader of the Phantom Thieves of Heart... a rebel who fights for the weak against the corrupt... do not forget that. Thy worth is not determined by whether thou is someone else. Thou determines thy worth, Trickster...

Why did Arsene have to be right? Ren knew he couldn't deny the words of his persona. He was right and it wasn't like him to forget that. He had never strayed from his beliefs ever since awakening Arsene's powers. It was one of the very things that bound the two. Letting his words of encouragement settle in his mind, the thief let a soft sigh slip from his lips as he rolled his shoulders back and sat up straight.

"Thanks Arsene," he murmured with a soft chuckle, a smirk returning to his face. To the others it would seem as if he was merely talking to himself given the persona, per usual, had addressed his other half without allowing the others to hear him.

"What did Arsene say?"

"Nothing of importance. He's trying to make a jumbled mess of my head more than it already is."

Liar! Thou should watch thy mouth!

Joker snickered as he dismissively waved his hand hoping Arsene would back off and allow him to return to more important matters. While he was grateful for the persona's motivational speech, he still had bigger matters to address, even if he was still at a bit of a loss. He would have to find a way to push on.

Before he could get to digging into the poem more in depth and picking his brain for who was who and where they were, his gray eyes moved towards Paula as she questioned what would happen if Lunaris won. Those were thoughts he didn't dare put into his own head. He had already seen his own failures come to fruition once before when Yaldabaoth had briefly erased him and the other Phantom Thieves from existence upon merging the Real World with the Metaverse. He wouldn't let something like that happen again and he knew most of the other Smash Brothers would agree in that sentiment.

"He won't win," Joker stated bluntly as he rose to his feet and moved over to Paula. Crouching in front of her, he offered a similar gesture as he had with Inkling before and gently rested a hand against her head with a smile. "Us Smash Brothers may attract trouble like it's our day jobs, but we're legendary heroes here and for some, our own worlds too. We won't lose!"

It was a bold statement to make and his tone was as cocky as ever, but they held some truth to them. While he hadn't been there for most of this Realm's troubles, he still knew many of his fellow Smash Bros were just like him: heroes of their worlds, defeating foes much stronger than them in order to obtain such a status. It wasn't going to be easy, Ren was sure of that much, but they would set things right. They had to!

"Our home worlds will be safe, I promise, okay? If Lunaris is some god acting out of line, well... I'll just do what I did to the last one that crossed me."

As he said those words he used his free hand to make a finger gun and pointed it at is own head before mumbling out a soft "bang" to represent what he had done to the last god who dared to stand above him and rule over people selfishly. Ann rolled her eyes at his display, figuring he shouldn't be making such gestures in front of a child, but she didn't dare speak. She'd let him have his moment for the time being.

That aside, his promise was one he intended on keeping even if it meant... well... things he much rather not think about in regards to all this. If it came to that he was sure he would face it head on as he always did, even if the others tried to convince him otherwise. Keeping those grim thoughts to himself, Ren pulled his hand back and rose back up to full height before he looked towards the others. Any of the nervous ticks he had been showing before had long faded even if deep down he still felt a personal sense of uneasiness. It was his responsibility to lead and he would damn well do it.


"With that answered, I should probably focus on figuring out this poem, huh?" Joker sighed as he rolled his shoulders back and tapped at the side of his head as he tried to recall the first line regarding their allies so they might figure something out. "How'd it even begin...?"

"Twin-hearted maiden of Fire and Light, Waker of Winds clothed in green, and heavenly warrior with wings of white, Face their fears on the dark sea?" Ann questioned as she read off the notes he had made on his phone. It was the first part he had jotted down so maybe it was what he was looking for.

Ren paused his absentminded tapping and nodded his head. "Yeah... yeah, it was something like that. I guess that's wh-"

He cut off mid-sentence as static began cutting through his earpiece and distracted him. Quirking a brow, he lowered his hand to tap against it, but it did little to stop it. Instead, it started flickering in and out as if someone was trying to communicate with him, but wasn't picking up. Joker grumbled softly at the inconvenience and pulled the device from his ear planning to pocket it. He figured it had shorted out during his escape. Before he could do such, he stopped when he saw Ann fiddling with hers as well. Something wasn't right. He couldn't even think of any kind of possibility before a familiar voice finally echoed out loudly through it:

"You've got incoming, Joker!"

Incoming?! Joker hardly had time to think when the sound of something approaching from the sky caught his attention and caused his eyes to shoot upwards. Speeding in overhead was the familiar sight of Necronomincon, the persona of the Phantom Thieves own navigator, Futaba Sakura. He had little time to react to its sudden appearance before he noticed the odd golden eyes chasing it, trying to shoot it down, albeit with no success.

"Arsene!"

The simple call immediately summoned his persona and he burst skyward with no hesitation. Within seconds, his heels sliced through the pair of eyes and caused them to fall to the ground, nearly toppling the tent that was still set up. Joker paid that little mind though as gray orbs flickered towards the UFO persona.

"Orcale, care to explain what brings you here? Mona should have told everyone to remain on standby."

"Oh? Am I interrupting a date with Panther? Mwehehe! You could have at least come up with something romantic, Joker! No girl wants to go on life threatening adventures after having a long distance relationship for four months. Yeesh!"

"I..?! No!"

Laughter erupted from inside the persona before a beam of light shot out from the bottom, causing odd tentacles to come curling down before a ginger haired girl would emerge from within and slide down to land in front of Joker. On her face was a devious grin, which caused the thief to wrinkle his face in annoyance. Futaba paid no mind to him though and looked past him towards the rest of the group. Her eyes immediately landed upon Inkling and she cocked her head. While she knew of the cephalopod due to her research into fighters for Joker back when he was invited, she had never personally seen her in person. In a way, it felt like she was looking in a mirror, but not an ordinary one. No, it was like one of those funhouse mirrors.

"The squid... Joker are you replacing me?" she asked as she quickly looked back towards him with her own narrowed eyes.

"Aw, do you not like your sister from diff-"

"If you finish that joke, I will punch you!"

A laugh escaped Ren's own lips this time before he shook his head. "I kid, I kid!"

"Now give me your phone. What you requested couldn't simply be sent. I'll have to install it personally."

"While you're doing that could you actually do me another favor?"

"Ughhhhh! So needy, Joker!" she groaned playfully as she rolled her eyes. As she did, Ann walked over with his phone in hand and held it out to her. Without a second thought, she snatched it with yet another devious look on her face. "What is it? Spit it out!"

"You see those notes opened... have Necronomincon display a map of this Realm along with those and icons of the Smash fighters, please."

Futaba quietly looked over the list and slowly nodded her head as she walked back over to where her persona still hovered overhead. She grabbed one of the tentacles and allowed it to retract back up inside the UFO, causing her to disappear without a word. Quickly, she tapped away on the holographic keyboard that appeared and within a few moments another beam of light shot down, this time emitting an interactive holographic map of the Smash Realm along with Joker's requested add-ons. On the left side, icons of every Smash fighter popped up while on the right were the lines of the poem were displayed.

"Is that satisfactory, oh dear leader?"

"Perfect. Thank you!" Joker replied as he stepped forward and let his eyes wander over the map presented to them. He remained silent for a moment before he turned to look towards the others with a smirk on his face. "Our job just got a hell of a lot easier. Everything I remember is written here... fighters and locations." His finger pointed towards the right side which was filled with text. "We can identify who is who and where they are, while also placing them on the map like this!" He moved his hand over to the icons on the opposite side and grabbed the one of himself before dragging it towards the plains where they were located. "While this doesn't tell us where pillars are we can get an idea of where not to look or who we might run into if we travel certain ways. Now come help me figure this all out!"

Ren was aware he was asking a tall order from many people who were not familiar with the Smash Brothers, but it was the best the could do right now. Besides, if the ones with less knowledge needed help him, Inkling and even Nurse Joy were there to offer some kind of guidance.

Just as the situation in the inn began to turn tense, Pyra was able to return calm immediately through politeness and a simple investigation. Seeing the blue-haired maiden put away her weapon was enough to reveal to Pit that she was not an enemy, and he conjoined his blades back into a bow and lowered it to his side. He returned Lana's apologetic smile with one of his own. "Ah, no, please excuse me! I am Pit, messenger of the Goddess of Light, Palutena. Pyra and I have had a crazy couple of days. Honestly, I'm really glad we don't have to fight!"

Pit could not help but recall the events of the Subspace Army Invasion a few years back. He was Mario's partner early in their journey to rid the World of Trophies of Tabuu's minions, and a lot of unnecessary fighting happened as a result of folks acting first and asking questions second, which often came with consequence of the "trophy-cized" loser being taken prisoner by an enemy. Granted, Pit enjoyed a good scrap, but things may have gone more smoothly had Link and Mario simply talked... Or whatever could count as talking as far as Link was concerned. Though considering what had just happened, the angel captain supposed he really did not have much right to criticize.

Pit's attention went to Pyra as the fire Aegis relieved the Waddle Dee of the letter it carried. His eyes widened upon seeing the familiar wax seal of the Super Smash Brothers on the envelope. "No way! A Super Smash Brothers invitation!" The cherub's youthful features then became puzzled, one brow raised curiously as he rested his chin on his knuckles. "But I thought there wasn't going to be a tournament this year. This was supposed to be a reunion party. It was Princess Peach's idea! Just what is going on here? It doesn't make sense!"

Lana spoke before Pit could get too frustrated with the state of things. He listened as the maiden explained how she transported herself to the Smash Realm, arrived in the town they now stand in, and had her invitation stolen by a Waddle Dee. His brows rose. "Really? The same thing happened to Pyra, T'ink, and I. Usually we meet at the Stadium, but somehow we all arrived in the wrong place. ...Speaking of T'ink, you haven't seen him, have you? Toon Link: about this big-" Pit spread his hands to indicate a height of about three feet, "Has these huge cat eyes that stare into your soul-" He pointed at his eyes, "Has a bit of an obsession with pigs, and wears green?"
 
F-Zero_-_Captain_Falcon_as_seen_in_F-Zero_GX_and_F-Zero_AX (1).png


Captain Falcon walked out of the mansion and began to walk away from it onto a path that leads towards a darkened forest with foggy light somewhere up ahead. He wasnt sure what it was but...He had an idea. This isn't the first time he dreamt this. Wouldn't be the last neither. He wasn't much of a believer in visions but perhaps...This was one. Falcon stopped and looked back at the mansion one last time and gives a small smile.

He thought to himself how he was going to miss hooping with Snake, or how he was going to miss Peach's tea parties, or miss doing yoga with WiiFit Trainer, or miss doing Ballet with Ganon and the guys, or he was going to miss sparing with Lucina, or how he was gonna miss making ramen noodles with LinLin, or how he was going to miss doing 'bacon runs' with the guys, or how he was going to miss playing catch with Pikachu, and how he was going to miss Samus'...Everything. He was going to miss them all....Save Ness....Maybe Mario....Possibly Bayonetta....Falcon wished he was better for them all. He knew didn't deserve most of their friendships with how unbearable he could be sometimes...Then...This was for the best.

Captain Falcon removes his helmet and loks down on it. Caressing the golden falcon piece almost for clarity. But Falcon remembered how happy they all were. He just...Wished he could be happy with them too....But maybe they were better off being without him. And if they can be happy without Captain Falcon....Then Maybe Captain Falcon himself could be too. If that made sense. Captain Falcon looks back down the path in front of him. He sets his helmet down on the path before walking towards the faint light at the end
--------------------------------------------
As Captain Falcon continued to move forward, his steps grew heavier with each passing moment, the weight of his despair dragging him deeper into the murky swamp. The once firm ground beneath his feet transformed into a treacherous quagmire, swallowing him inch by inch with relentless determination.

With every futile attempt to push forward, Falcon found himself sinking further into the mire, the cold embrace of the swamp wrapping around him like a suffocating shroud. His movements grew sluggish, his limbs weighed down by the oppressive weight of his despair.

As the swirling waters closed in around him, Falcon's heart pounded steadily in his chest, his breaths coming in normal gasps as serenity pulled at the edges of his mind. He didn't struggle, his movements were as calm as ever despite relentless pull of the swamp's embrace.

The murky waters rising steadily up his body until they reached his chest, then his shoulders. With each passing moment, the darkness of the swamp enveloped him, its icy grip tightening around him like a vise. Yet, he didn't notice a thing. He kept walking forward through the swamp.

Finally, with a final gasp for air, Falcon's head disappeared beneath the surface of the swamp, the swirling waters swallowing him whole. The last thing he saw was the faint glimmer of light dancing on the surface above, a distant reminder of the world he was leaving behind.

And then, there was nothing but darkness, the suffocating embrace of the swamp consuming him entirely as he descended into its depths.

Ike
The Radiant Hero

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________


One fine morning, a young woman by the name of Mist was doing her daily chores- sweeping the floors, doing the dishes, dusting the furniture, among other things. Boyd had gone away for a short while with the band of the Greil Mercenaries, and she would have gone too, if she didn't have a house to keep! Her handiwork with Staves was nothing to be laughed at, and she was just as much a member of the crew of rag-tag warriors as her husband. But if there was one thing she disliked about mercenaries, it was how unkempt they were. It reminded her of when she was the housekeeper of the home fort for all of the Greil Mercenaries during the Mad King's War...

Soon, she heard a sudden knock at her door as she was wringing out a rag over a bucket. She had almost knocked over her bucket as she rose to her feet, wondering if Boyd had returned already from his employment duties...she hastily walked over to the door, a smile appearing on her face as the image of her lover's face greeting her flashed in her mind.

1715474778930.png

MIST
"Hello? Oh, Boyd, is that you? I didn't expect you to return home so soon--"





But as the young Healer opened the door, she fell silent with shock. She simply stared, and stared, and stared some more, until a cross between a sob and a gasp escaped her, her blue eyes pooling with tears. She clapped a hand to her mouth, hardly daring to believe who was standing in front of her after all this time.
1715475217553.png

IKE
"...Hey there, Mist. Wipe away those tears, will ya?"



It took all the self-restraint the maiden had to not just tackle the hero to the ground in a rush of happiness. She darted forward, wrapping her arms around him and squeezing him in a big bear hug, tears streaming down her face as she sobbed joyfully,

1715475703244.png

MIST
"B-Big brother, is it truly you?! Oh, I missed you so much! I thought you'd never return!!"





Ike ran a rugged hand through his younger sister's hair, a slight smile lighting up his otherwise stoic face. He sighed lightly at her emotional display. Ike had made himself a legend, known as The Radiant Hero, after the incident with Yune and Micaiah. But afterward, he had left Crimea behind, leaving his sister, his companion Soren, and the Greil Mercenaries to their lives. Ike had gone to explore a far-off continent and wanted a quiet and peaceful retirement from the public eye. And yet here he was, back in Crimea.

Quickly, the younger woman led her brother into her home. Ike looked around passively, eyeing the photographs on the walls and the signs of others residing with Mist. It made him glad, that his sister was still as warm and caring as ever.

1715482871525.png

MIST
"What brings you back from your travels, Ike? I did not expect to see you again so suddenly."



1715483014642.png

IKE
"Well, a heron Laguz somehow located me and delivered me a message. It was from the Smash Brothers. Apparently, we are having a reunion, and I came back to use the portal located here in Crimea."



Mist nodded slowly in understanding as Ike told her the reason of his swift return. Her mouth twisted into a small frown, though, as she had been hoping that her brother would stay in Crimea for longer, so he could see his mercenary group and how they were doing, perhaps catch up with Micaiah, have a one-on-one with Soren, and the like...
Ike caught onto his sister's disappointment, because he sighed lightly, folding his arms.
1715483740247.png
IKE
"Fine, fine, how about this-- after the reunion is over, I'll stay here in Crimea for a short while. There's no rush for me to go back to exploring, now is there?"



The Healer's face instantly brightened, and she clasped her hands around one of Ike's, looking up at him excitedly. Some things never changed...

~​

"Oof!"

Ike let out a grunt of pain as he landed on top of something hard and wooden. His back ached terribly as he sat upright, trying to get a grip. He always hated the travel between worlds...

Putting a hand to the small of his back, wincing, he looked around at where he had landed. This was quite unlike anything the Radiant Hero had seen before when it came to his time in Smash. Where were all the fighters? Where was all the praise, all the chatter, all the pomp and circumstance?
He had landed on top of a cabin, surrounded by tropical greenery. And...was that a massive crocodile standing right outside the cabin, or did he hit his head too hard when he landed?

Quickly looking around for his precious blade, Ike soon scrambled to his feet after picking up his Ragnell. Holding the two-handed sword casually in one hand (as per usual), he swung it over his shoulder before he called out to the giant creature from where he stood on top of the roof. The thing looked to be a little dopey to the merc, but all he said was, "Hey, big guy, over here. Is this your home? How'd I end up here?"

Noctis and his best friend listened to Ren as he started to read the poem. Noctis was too familliar with prophesies. He was part of one and might be part of him again if him and Prompto DO return home.
"Wait,waker of winds dressed in green? Are we talking about one of the Links?" Prompto asked.
Noct knew his friend was a geek. He was one as well.
Then an old friend of Ren and Ann showed up. Prompto looked at Futaba,then at the inkling,then back at Futaba."Wait,am I seeing double?!" Prompto said. Noctis felt embarased. "At least we got some help. Ren told then that they needed to identify who's who in this poem then find the pillars. "It was easier for me to find the Astrals back in Lucis. Though thosr pillars are just like the Astrals. I just hope we won't have to find most of them...and get a mingrane before that. I had a headhache before fighting Titan."
"I remember that. It wasn't easy."Prompto replied.
 

Lyndis
The Noblewoman of Sacae

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________

The smell of bison stew cooking over a fire permeated the air around a humble hut in the middle of the expansive Sacaean Plains. Nearby, on a small rock, sat the once trailblazing lady of Caelin, who was now practicing her archery on a makeshift dummy a few yards away as she waited for her supper to be fully cooked.

The wild maiden raised her bow, and took careful aim, her arrow's head pointed straight for the dummy's head. Not even the winds of the Plains or the sounds of her stew boiling distracted her at that moment...

KENT
"...Lady Lyndis..."





She was taken aback by the sound of such a familiar voice calling out to her out of nowhere. Having let go of her arrow prematurely, the arrow soared right over the dummy, and to add to the embarrasingly off shot in front of a friend, she was injured by the bowstring as it twanged against her forearm. The noblewoman winced in pain, looking down at the red mark on her skin before she stood up from her rock and turned to see who it was that disrupted her pre-supper training regime.

She found herself looking up at the young, yet serious face of Kent, the virtuous knight who had aided her in her fight to free her late grandfather from the clutches of Lord Lundgren, as well as joined her while she traveled with the nobles Eliwood and Hector after saving Castle Caelin from Laus' forces, atop his trusty steed. Kent was one of the few that kept in constant contact with her after she entrusted Caelin's territory to Ostia and retired to Sacae. Why, she didn't know, but what she did know was that Kent was a reliable, sincere person who had always stood by her side no matter what, who even offered to become Caelin's steward as to carry on the peace she had installed, and she dearly enjoyed his company and advice. A warm smile graced her features as she set her bow down.

LYN
"Oh, Kent, I'm no longer the lady of Caelin. There is no need to call me by such a formal title anymore, right? Simply call me Lyn. Anyway, what brings you here? Did the smell of my stew waft all the way to Caelin and entice you to visit me?"



Kent raised an eyebrow, before the faintest smile curled his lips. He got down from his mount and approached Lyn, looking at her carefully. His burnt-orange gaze caught sight of the welt on her arm, and he scratched the back of his head sheepishly.

1715548399924.png

KENT
"My apologies for distracting you, Lady Lyndis. And no thank you, I prefer to call you by your full title. Whether you embrace your title of nobility or not, you are and forever will be Caelin's valiant lady to me, thus I will always show my unwavering dedication and respect towards you..."



A soft shade of red appeared on the cavalier's cheeks as he realized he had been rambling on about Lyn, and he cleared his throat. He walked through the tall grass as Lyn motioned for him to take a seat with her next to the fire, which he obligingly did.

1715548399924.png

KENT
"...Moving on, unfortunately, while I am quite sure your stew is delectable, it is not the reason why I am here. You see, I have been instructed to forward a message to you."




The soldier produced a pristine, white letter, complete with a red wax seal. He held it out to the noblewoman, who looked at it with interest. She opened it and quickly read through the message, her green eyes lighting up with excitement as she looked up at the mildly perplexed Kent.
1715549795187.png


LYN
"The Super Smash Brothers are hosting a reunion, and they've invited me to attend! Oh, Kent, this is wonderful!"


The knight looked at her with a blank expression for a moment, before it seemed to click in his brain. Leaning in closer to her, his eyes trained on the letter, he asked,

1715548399924.png

KENT
"Forgive me if I am mistaken, milady, but are you referring to that group of barbarians who hold tournaments to see who is best at beating people to death? And you participate as a...what is it called...as a, uhm...Support Relic?"



1715549795187.png

LYN
"...Not quite...we are Assist Trophies, and we lend a helping hand to those 'barbarians' who fight for their immortal glory. I for one enjoy helping, and it gives me an excuse to perfect my Quick Draw blade technique!"



Kent had, of course, seen Lyn's unrivaled speed and strength when she used her little styles and techniques she had picked up by herself or thanks to her father, but sometimes he found the noblewoman's unquenchable thirst to learn, adapt, and improve when it came to combat a little...well...

1715548399924.png

KENT
"Whatever floats your boat, Lady Lyndis. I must admit...I will miss you quite a bit...and I'm sure other friends of ours will too. Steadfast in whatever you do, and good luck."




~​

With her bow on her back and her priceless sword, the Mani Katti, resting comfortably at her hip, Lyn set off the next day to the Smash Realm. She wondered what other Assist Trophies had been fortunate enough to receive an invitation. Perhaps the handsome Alucard or the peppy Squid Sisters? Or maybe perhaps the peculiar Starman or Waluigi...poor, poor Waluigi.

Well, she would never know until she reached the other realm!

As soon as she reached the other side, however, she was met by sounds of blasts and confusion, far from what she thought would greet her. Unfamiliar surroundings dazed her for a second before she got her head on straight. Situated a little ways away from the pandemonium, she immediately kept herself hidden as she watched what appeared to be an infantry square down with a figure that looked like an angel with only one wing...

"Sephiroth...?"

Staying low and quiet as to not draw attention to herself for the time being, her green eyes observed the showdown with heightening anxiety. But soon, she caught sight of two other figures who were part of the scrap. One of them, a blonde young man who looked more or less her age, and the other, a dog dressed in a prim little outfit, both of them wielding weapons that resembled the young hero Sora's keyblade. Just like with Sephiroth, Lyn also recognized her easily. Isabelle! It was one of the other fighters!

Quickly making up her mind, the young noble began hurrying towards the dog and boy, who were being escorted by other military men, her hand resting on the Mani Katti's handle in case she had need of whipping it out in a flash. She raised her other hand, waving at them in hopes that they would slow down for her. She was trying not to be overloaded with all the sensory stimulants running rampant around them. "Hey!" she shouted over the sounds of blasts and gunfire, "Over here!"

Sora could understand Layton's reasoning, though it was still hard for him to fully accept. He hadn't been molded by warfare, far from it. Death was something he wasn't unfamiliar with, but had never witnessed in such ways. It was eye opening, albeit not in a good way. For that reason he could get why it was best for him to leave. Who knew what would happen if he stayed. Maybe the feeling that itched inside would come out, whatever it may be. It wasn't something he could explain nor did he want to explore. Instead, he shrugged it off.

Remaining silent, the young key wielder listened to Luke's protests as his eyes wandered back over to the battle even though they shouldn't have. The clash of magics caused the battlefield to briefly flash with a blinding light for a few seconds, causing Sora to shield his eyes until it died down. When it did he witnessed Byleth's predicament. Seeing the professor release the hilt of his blade, his eyes grew wide, especially as flames spewed from the beast's mouth and flew at his companion. It may not have been his fight any more, but while Luke and Pichu boarded the makeshift vehicle, the least he could do was offer some kind of support; the one kind of support he could think of.

"Byleth, heads up!"

Without an ounce of hesitation, Sora flung his keyblade through the air. The blade spun towards the swordsmen with ease, miraculously avoiding the other Gao that yet remained until it reached its intended target.

Catching the lightweight weapon in his hand, Byleth felt odd handling such a thing, but he couldn't complain. Simply holding the key itself allowed him to take in its strange properties. It almost felt as if his own magic reacted to it. Unlike his sword, the keyblade was a natural conduit for magic and oddly it seemed to react to his own without much effort. The key quickly flowed with the magical aura the professor put off and allowed it to spiral along its shaft until it reached the teeth. The light burst out from the weapon without a second thought and cast pillars of light around the lone swordsmen. While his magic on its own was powerful, the Kingdom Key amplified its strength in a way even Sora himself could never imagine.

Seeing the pillars dance around the professor, Sora's own eyes grew wide before he watched them spin towards the Gao Captain at Byleth's command. Even for an impromptu act, the older Smash Brother showed he could quickly adapt and push on. No wonder he had been sought out to teach battle tactics.

Byleth darted after the pillars in hopes of turning the tides and retrieving his own weapon back. Seeing his magic once again clash with the flames of the beast, he pressed on, ignoring the brief spurts of blinding light. As the distance was closed, he launched the keyblade from his own hand, much like he had seen Sora do many times before, and allowed his own volley of fireballs to shoot from it. Even if the Gao was resistant to such attacks, he hoped it would serve as a distraction as he prepared his own personal attack. He may be without his sword or Sora's key, but he would keep up the offensive.

His hand moved towards his midsection as he leapt up in hopes of landing on the Gao Captain. Curling his fingers around the dagger resting there, Byleth yanked it out before landing on the feline-like creature's face. A scowl managed to cross his features before he swung the blade down to stab above its nose.

"Back down now or I'll make sure the next one hits something vital! I won't show mercy!" the professor threatened, his voice remaining monotonous despite the look of discontent plastered all over his features.


As Byleth seemed to gain his own footing again, Sora watched as his keyblade crashed into the sand and the fire that had blazed from it via the other Smash Brother's magic now had burned out. Figuring it was no longer needed, the teen allowed it to manifest in his own hand again before his attention was quickly drawn away as one of the other Gao's cried out.

Shifting his gaze towards Layton, he noticed him engaging in combat with one of the beasts that had drawn closer to the group. Despite being nothing like Byleth, Robin or Chrom, the man fought well and was giving them a chance to escape. It was best he take it.

Turning towards the makeshift vehicle, Sora climbed onto it and glanced towards Luke and Pichu with a weak smile upon his lips. He knew much like himself, they didn't want to run either, but this had to be done. If something did happen, which he hoped nothing did, the three of them would have to continue on and figure out the mystery of this world. It was a tall order, yet he was hardly fazed by it. He had done things of such grandiose after all.

Remaining silent for the moment, he positioned himself near the catapult-turned-sail and eyed it quietly in hopes of figuring out how to get it upright. Noticing a lever near the devices crank to lower it, Sora reached for it and pulled on it, causing the mechanism to react immediately and launch the arm of it skyward. The sudden movement caused the teen to jump in surprise, but he quickly settled as he saw the sail now waving in front of himself.

"Hang on tight!" he called back to Luke and Pichu. "Things are about to get bumpy!"

No other words of warning were spoken before Sora pointed the tip of his keyblade at the sail and allowed an aero spell to be cast. The sudden burst of wind caused them to start moving and given the strength of his magic, it was no slow pace! They were speeding across the sandy terrain within seconds. Dust kicked up from all sides, making it hard to even navigate as they moved. There was no controlling the vehicle now that they were moving. The keyblade wielder seemed well aware of that notion, but with them in wide open desert there was no need to fear, or so he thought.

Cranky was trying to force Toon Link to drink a third potion. The little swordsman shut his eyes and mouth tight and turned his face away from the old ape, grunting in distress as he did. At Mewtwo's response, Cranky turned toward the Genetic Pokemon and sniffed. "Good! Now go on! Get you! All of you! There's a world to save!"

There was a thud on the roof, and a few twigs and straw fell to the floor. Cranky scowled then began banging the bottom of his cane on the wooden floor to give vent to his temper. "NOW WHAT?! K. LUMSY! What was that??"

"Oh, uh, another hairless monkey landed on your roof, Mister Cranky Kong Sir!" the giant Kremling responded. The dopey K. Lumsy then turned to Ike and grinned. "Hello, little hairless monkey! I'm K. Lumsy!" He then let out a deep, rumbling laugh. "You're very funny! This house isn't mine, I can't fit in it!"

Wanting to be helpful, the friendly crocodile reached out and grabbed Ike by his cape, easily lifting him up from the cabin roof and down onto the patio. Cranky peered at Ike through the open door.

"Bah! Another Smash Brother fallen from the sky! Who's next? Ridley?"

Toon Link relaxed and sighed in relief as Cranky seemed to have forgotten about him. He was immediately proven wrong as Cranky suddenly turned and poured the entire vial of vile liquid down his throat. Toon Link was once again put into a coughing fit as Cranky waved his cane at the gathered fighters.

"What are you standing around for? I said get! Go make yourselves useful and save the Realm already! Wait, do you even know what is going on? Please keep staring blankly if you don't!" The ape observed the Super Smash Brothers a moment, then let out a long-suffering sigh. "Alright alright! You can stop with the blank staring now! I suppose I can provide you with some explanation as to what has happened in the past year. Now pay attention! I'm only going to explain once!"

Taking his cane, Cranky banged on the floor three times. A large blue globe within the cabin opened in response. Within it was what appeared to be a golden egg, which then opened to reveal a large oval crystal.

Cranky pointed at the crystal. "Now, set your peepers to the Crystal Coconut and it will reveal all!"

On cue, the crystal flashed a bright light, then became translucent. Within it was an image of a tall man wearing a mask of silver and gold. His dark blue cloak twinkled with stars and tiny silver moons that changed phases. Though it was but a small image projected by the Crystal Coconut, it was clear that this man held considerable power despite his whimsical appearance.

Cranky explained. "While you Smash Brothers were gone, this world was conquered by this masked clown, Lunaris! He somehow managed to capture the Hands and steal their powers for his own!" The image changed to that of a citadel atop a massive airship, surrounded by floating golden spheres. "Lunaris rules from his castle, the oh-so creatively named Flying Citadel. His Golden Eyes roam the skies, shooting down all that flies! They're a real nuisance!"

The image changed again. This time, it depicted Koopas, Goombas, Kremlings, Moblins, Bokoblins, and other baddies running amok and bringing terror to the peaceful residents of the Smash Realm. "Now this whole world is a mess! But it gets worse!" Cranky looked to the Super Smash Brothers. "Lunaris knew you would be back, so he has outlawed the Super Smash Brothers! That's right! You're all criminals now! My advice: watch your backs, and take down that megalomaniacal magician ASAP!"

Toon Link finally shook off the awful taste of that third potion. Seeing the Crystal Coconut, the boy became wide awake. Leaping from the hammock, he ran over to Cranky and began babbling.

"Eh? EH?! What?? Ghost Ship? Crystal Coconut? Slow down, boy! Speak clearly! Bah, Links! Can't get them to talk for nothing, then suddenly you can't shut them up!"

Toon Link quieted down. He reached into his tunic and took out the old wooden bible box. He opened it, revealing the white asymmetrical crystal shard within. Cranky shuddered from the cold, unsettling energy that radiated from it. "Brr! What's this then?" Adjusting his glasses, he leaned in for a closer look. His eyes then widened. "Can it really be...?"

The ancient ape became very alarmed. He pointed at Ike and Daisy. "You! And you there! Close the door! Shut the windows and get the curtains down! Hurry! HURRY! Before the wrong eyes see! K. Lumsy, you stay out there and keep an eye out for anything suspicious!" Cranky looked back to Toon Link, lowering his voice as he addressed him. "I never thought I'd see the day! Boy, you have no idea what you have there, do you?"

Cia
The Dark Sorceress

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Before Cia could put her focus on her whereabouts, she had been encircled by a cluster of people of different shapes and sizes. Some of them were wielding weapons pointed in her direction, others were observing her, with what seemed to be many different opinions on her appearance.

A supercilious smile appeared on the sorceress' lips as she heard some of the comments. Her Gate had disappeared and she was now sauntering around a bit, soaking up the attention. She pointed her staff lazily in the direction of the guards, and spoke to the crowd as a whole, her voice soft yet laced with haughtiness. "Surely all of you have better things to do instead of look upon me as if you've never seen a woman of my caliber before. Of course, that may be entirely possible...be that as it may, stand down, will you?" She turned her attention onto the royal guard, and added, "It would be a shame if the first thing I had to do when I returned was to tear you all to bits."

The deity noticed the sudden hushed nature of the crowd and turned to see what had caused the sudden silence. Her eyes landed on a hooded, masked stranger who was walking towards her, carrying a scimitar with them and being closely followed by a fairy that reminded her of Link's little companion, Proxi. Cia gripped her staff tighter, placing a hand on her hip. She could feel their eyes traveling up and down her body despite not actually being able to see their eyes.

When the mysterious individual finally spoke, the sorceress was taken aback slightly. That tone was...not what she expected. She could sense a sort of power radiating off of the stranger, what with how he confidently approached her and how all that surrounded them had immediately fell quiet upon his arrival. But that didn't irk the dark sorceress in the slightest.

Her lip curled slightly at his words, and she replied sarcastically, "My apologies for sparking up such a conundrum with my presence, 'My Lord'. And whether I am lost or not definitely has nothing to do with you, now does it?"
