Alright... time to show this guy who's boss!

NO SPOON!

Seph then hit Goomba King with a stronger version of Mewtwo's Psychic. Same effects, only a little more damaging and continuously drops the enemie's stats as well as Life Force, with symptoms of confusion or losing touch with soul (in short, may not attack next post).

Seph's tech was never executed however.

Dark Weapon *thinks* Errr... Seph? Your power is sealed, remember? Anyway, maybe you tried a Incarnation Tech or Unison Tech... in order to execute your Incarnation Techs, you must FIRST use your power to summon the Incarnation and THEN, you can use the attack!

Goombario: "Seph? Why did you just yelled "no spoon"? Was that supposed to mean anything?"

Goomba King: "...Lady rat... I think that you have a slight problem..."

Seph: "No... it means THIS!"

MEWTHREE COMMENSE!

Suddenly, a purple flame appeared....

Then the purple flame transformed into the Incarnated version of Mewthree! While it looked powerful, it surely couldn't match up to the original as it lacked many of it's features.

But that didn't stop this! The No Spoon tech was pulled off FOR REAL this time, making Goomba King's stats and Life Force suspectible to drop like an anvil!

The tech was pulled succesfully!

The Goomba King's Maximum Life Force was dropped by half and he lost control of his body for a turn!

As soon as the No Spoon attack was used, the Incarnation disappeared...

Everything around Seph seemed as if everything was back at moving at normal speed... obviously, using the attack tired her so much that it made her lose her concentration.

Goombario did not just remained there, watching the tech.

As soon as Seph finished her No Spoon tech, Goombario dashed toward the Goomba King and attacked him with a jump attack while he was vulnerable.

Seph knew that this was as good a chance as any to attack...

And Seph exploited that opportunity by whipping the Dark Weapon right at his face like a boomerang! At a speed as great as Gooma King's own attacks. Should this hit him, it will inflict minor damage and send him flying backward several feet.

Altought Seph had overstimated the speed of her attack, Goomba King wasn't a very agile foe.

SLASH!

The Goomba King was knocked back a bit!

Goomba King: "So be it! You asked for it! I am now going to use my special attack!"

An aura of dark energy appeared around the Goomba King...

Goombario: "Seph! If you have a concentration-draining tech then it's now or never!"

Seph: "I remember this one... old school Ex Lightheart at it's best!"

FEEDBACK!

Suddenly, all that negative energy that Goomba King had charged had been transformed into harmful negative energy that drained his health a little bit, thus cancelled out the charged attack in the process.

During this time...

The X Sentinel Squids have already passed the equator at this time... and are nearing the UEN's solar system! Interceptor's approximate estimated time to destination: 5 minutes encounting.

Sgt. Mayhem received a transmition...

(Sentinel Squid): "Caution! Engaging extraction point. Estimated time 'till extraction: 0 hours, 5 minutes, 4 seconds."

Sgt. Mayhem was more than pleased to hear this...

Sgt. Mayhem: "Yes... that's right. Just 5 more minutes and the UEN's homes will become OUR property... every last one of them! The UEN better come up with some sort of miraculous plan to counter this attack forwarded by our Sentinels... wait, actually, they should've already come up with one a long time ago if they were to have ANY chance of thwarting this plan! In short, we've got 'em right where we want 'em boys!"

A voice could be heard in Sgt.Mayhem's head...

???: "Yeah... right! YOUR property, isn't it? You sure enjoy the tought of senseless slaughters and destruction, do you? Hahahaha... I can see it in your heart... the Hunters are wasting your potential... you could become a much, much greater destructive force... hahahaha..."

The Lynxis grew stronger to try and supress the voice... but the voice became louder! ...and for a good reason! Sgt.Mayhem was speaking the words that the voice was saying to him!

??? *trought Sgt.Mayhem*: "Yes... YES! Continue on! Soon... ALL of these worlds... OUR property! Hahahaha! Mwahahaha!"

ZAP!

The Lynxis shocked Sgt.Mayhem with all of it's might, supressing Sgt.Mayhem's desires for a short while.

The voice couldn't be heard after the shock...

Another voice could be heard in Sgt.Mayhem's head...

Zerodius *using telepathy*: "Sgt.Mayhem... The Lynxis' power won't last much longer. You have been corrupted so troughly by both your desires and actions that the Lynxis was forced to rob you of all conscious tought for a few seconds. Mayhem! You are not fit to be the leader of F.A.L.C.O.N.! Your heart is completely evil and I wouldn't surprised that you would turn against us any second, now so... you are officially under arrest. You shall be sealed in a cell until we have found a way to clean you of your insane, psychotic desires. Until you have been purified... I fear that I will have to name your second-in-command, ZeroNumberX, as the new leader... for now. Sgt.Mayhem... stop thinking that you're invincible becease that you have the Lynxis and Gradius on your side. It is not the UEN who are going to kill you... it is yourself! Your own hatred is consuming your humanity! You forget the very purpose of this battle and go around, causing destruction and making plans just to satisfy your sadistic desires..."

...

During this time...

...

Even if Seph's tech worked, the Goomba King was still able to execute his tech!

5 gigantic goomnuts encased in fire fell from the sky!

3 were on a direct collision course with Seph and the 2 others, on a collision course with Goombario!

Goombario prepared to dodge...

Dark Weapon *thinks* Seph! FeedBack works on every tech... exept desesperation techs! It is why you wasn't able to stop his tech. Also... your timing for a Dark Weapon Tech was bade. Your concentration is gone which means that everything is going to go at normal speed unstead of reduced speed compared to you. I doubt you can avoid all falling goomnuts... but try to avoid them!

Off: I'm going to warn you what you warned me with earlier... you most likely WON'T like this, and yes, this post will have a much similar effect.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Suddenly, Zerodius heard a voice... and it came right from the Linxys.

Gradius: "I'm afraid I can't let you do that, Zerodius. As much as you don't see it in him, Sgt. Mayhem is only human. You think he is evil, and that he has aspirations to turn your back on you in any second, but the truth of the matter is: noone knows Sgt. Mayhem better than I do. Not even Seph, who's allies are linked directly with NARC. And I can fortell the future of nearly anyone I have close relations with... and apparently, he is here to stay. On our side. And this plan is by no means evil. Sure it's a bit 'abnormal', but Sgt. Mayhem isn't the only one carrying out these plans. NO! For so long has the Legion of Doom, or shall I say, FALCON clan, been made famous for implementing these plans. And NARC is the one responsible for unveiling them. It's a chain reaction. The plan goes from FALCON, to NARC, over to the enemy. And to call this plan 'evil' is to prove to the rest of the world how little of an understanding you truly have of the ones you call your 'friends', which is very. The Legion of Doom created this plan simply for retaliation, not to be 'evil'. If they were to create such a plan for the same purpose as you claim they have, they would have pretty much dominated the entire Multiverse by now, wouldn't you think? The Legion of Doom aren't cold. The Legion of Doom are true warriors and, as such, simply won't stand around and put up with the sadistic nature of the United Evil Nations while they wait for them to come back and push them around even more, like the little 'broadstreet bullies' that they are so hyped up to be. You think they suffered through the onslaughts of the Guardians, which cost them THOUSANDS OF THEIR OWN PEOPLE'S LIVES!!! And not to mention many of their home planets reduced to smitherines, and then be infected by a prejiduce curse by the Absolute Evil, to be told that they have crazed feelings and how much their plan won't work, when truthfully they are only doing the right thing?!?! I don't believe in such talk as this! Therefore, it looks like *I* am going to have to do the right thing, and give this rodent with the anonymous name what his little 'friends' gave us...."

The power of the Linxys grew with SO much hatred it looked as if the whole world was going to explode!

Infact, the vortex within the Linxys was calling out to ???...

Then, a red flame portal appeared, and out of came a HUMONGOUS red hand, that grabbed ??? by the throat and dragged him inside the portal, leading into the Sands of Time. The hand grabbed him with so much grit that, when ??? could finally start breathing out of his neck again, that it was as if he was just in outer space!

??? kept falling through a seemingly endless portal, until he reached the very bottom in a bang. He now stood before Gradius, in the forbidden realm... the Sands of Time.

Gradius: "Well, well, well... if it's not what's-his-face (another reference to his 'unknown' name), the big baddy baddy with the reputation for dominating the mortal world, and striking fear into the minds of the innocents. You just LOVE throwing people's weight around, now don't you? Well, I don't know which dimension you come from, but you don't seem to understand that you are now on FALCON's soil, with me as the loyal protector and savior of it, and Seph's long term mentor. And since you are on MY dimension, you are abiding by MY rules, and since it is my duty to make sure that everyone here lives fair and equal lives, I'm going to split things evenly between you and your bitter rivals... AND STRIP YOU OF YOUR BARON POWER OF HATRED!!!!"

Gradius then flashed the tip of his palm outward towards ???, and out of him came a "fire" symbol resembling the Power of Hatred. He then absorbed the symbol with his palm, and the second he had done so, the Power of Hatred was no more. Stripped. Confiscated. Zip. Gone. From the UEN.

Gradius: "And there you have it... the Power of Hatred is as dead as I am! You have been removed of it, with absolutely NO hope of EVER gaining it back! And since you think you're "all that" and a bag of potato chips... I guess I'll have to take all your dark powers from you, too, especially that God-forsaken "Soul Bind" spell! After all, that's MY job to revolve around the people, NOT YOURS!!"

He then snapped his large fingers... and as he had done so, ??? had flashed for a second and then, when the light discipated, so did most of his dark powers, including the "Soul Bind" spell.

Gradius: "And last, but surely not least, that utterly cheap spell you call "Eternum". Technically, you were supposed to have lost it so long ago, but your so-called "leader" just HAD to step up and prevent that from happening, so I guess that, as long as you're here, I ought to take it from you RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW!!!"

Gradius then stuck his palm out again, this time, with a symbol resembling a dark matter blade, zipping from ??? right into Gradius, for him to keep. For all and eternity.

Gradius: "Now that everything's dead equal, I guess I can send you back now... but consider this a warning, Mr. "Supernatural". I thought you would have known better than to tamper with the Linxys... to tamper with it is to tamper with me, and you know what that means. But next time it'll mean something a bit more serious... I better not see you back here again, or else I'll be forced to take your life from you, too! Now GET!"

Gradius opened up a portal leading back to ???'s home realm, and then kicked him into it with much agony. While the force of the kick may not have hurt, everything coming before it up until this point surely had to!

During this time...

Seph saw the Goomnuts coming from the sky... and tried to dodge them.

She side stepped and dodged 2 of them, while one landing safely on her head.

As for Goombario, Seph shot out (small) beams with the Dark Weapon to detonate them before landing on Goombario's head, which saved him the dignity of becoming burnt toast. However, the explosions the beams created still did some damage to him as they were, indeed, right near his forehead.

However... Gradius' attacks did absolutely nothing for he hasn't attacked the one he tought he had attacked...

He had merely attacked a shadow.

???: "Hahahaha... very funny. Since when do gods actually waste their time fighting their own shadows? I am merely Sgt.Mayhem's own Evil side... if you tought that you succeeded in doing anything, then you are a fool! Face it Gradius, there is nothing the Hunters, the Legion of Doom, or even you can do. Even you, Gradius, is a servant of the UEN, without knowing it! We all are... it is just that we don't know it yet! Anyway... there is no way YOU can stop me from foiling that plan my other half made. The only one who can stop me is... myself! ...and my better half is way too weak to supress me!"

Zerodius *using telepathy*: "Sgt.Mayhem... it is your chance! Now or never! Close your eyes and allow me to send you into a state of deep sleep. You will face your own negative feelings and memories. NeoBowser's influence has artificially increased it's power, transforming it into a corrupted, twisted version of yourself. Remember, without an evil side, you cannot have a good side. Negative feelings will always exist, Sgt.Mayhem... but negative feelings aren't evil feelings. Evil takes no set form... but you will know when you will see it. It will be the part of your soul that shouldn't exist. A part of your soul that only brings pain and despair. Find it and destroy it... without destroying your negative feelings. It will be hard... but it will be quick also. Close your eyes, concentrate, and prepare yourself..."

...

During this time...

...

Goomba King: "Hahaha! How do you like that?... huh? You're still alive? ...How... shocking! I'll have to use yet another Goomnut Storm!"

The Goomba King began to concentrate...

Off: It doesn't matter what the nature of the being is. His spells will ALWAYS work on anyone and anything, no matter who or what they are (even if they're nonliving like they shadow being). Gradius is THE God of the dimension, and has the power to do, well... anything, to anyone he wants or chooses. If he wanted to, he could take the shadow's life away just by snapping his fingers.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Unfortunately for ???, he thought wrong.... the spell worked perfectly because he wasn't taking it from JUST the shadow being, but the entire UEN as well (even if it were directed at just him, it would still work, no ifs, ands, or buts). He took it from the entire UEN, meaning that, from this point forward, no UEN cohort has the power to use Eternum, Soul Bind, nor do they have the Power of Hatred.

Gradius: "I must say, that shadow is REALLY getting on my nerves... and so are the UEN. They're even worse than the Guardians! So they think I can't stop them... that I can't do anything, at all, in my long stretch of power, to stop the UEN... well, here's my chance to prove them wrong!"

Gradius used the "absorbed" power of the Emerald of Doom that was obtained from the UEN to help carry out the attack set out by Sgt. Mayhem.

The power was carrying out some wierd transmitions... it was calling out to it's counterpart, the Fusion Reactor!

Being that the Fusion Reactor was now within close enough distance to the Emerald of Doom's emmition, it could interact directly with it...

And being that it's "power" was, infact, right in the hands of the UEN, the futile implosion of the Emerald's "Phase of Chaoisisness" would be right in their own grasp as well!

It started to attract more volts of energy than anything the UEN, even NeoBowser, has ever seen before! As big as some of the things they've seen in their lives are, they've never seen anything like this!

Then, in a few seconds....

SHOCK!
SHOCK!

The Emerald of Doom's energy in which they had stored earlier started to shock the life force out of anyone, and everyone, who dared laid hands on the Emerald of Doom's power! At this time, every UEN cohort, even NeoBowser for some strange reason, fell to the floor, down and out. They weren't quite "dead" just yet, but the energy of the Emerald of Doom grew so powerful that it managed to knock every single one of them out cold for a "while", and that's an understatement! While this was, indeed, Gradius's doing, Gradius only brought sooner to the UEN the inevitable Phase of Chaosisness in which the power of the Emerald of Doom in which they had inherited would turn against them, and in a big way!

Gradius: "Hahahahaha.... finally, something to let out all my anger on! I sent Sgt. Mayhem's "shadow" here feeling bad, but my decimating the entire UEN in a heartbeat like that sure felt good! Lesson learned: NEVER underestimate the power of the one-and-only God of this dimension! The old tale of the Dark Weapon being the only thing that affects NeoBowser has now been proven a lie... I can affect him, too... and I just did! Incase the UEN is too stupid to know..., oops, that was a bit "harsh"! But anyways... the reason that normal electric energy somehow took him out unlike any other was because it was MY normal electric energy... and it did him good. Sigh..."

Gradius took a deep breathe...

Gradius: "Be it as it may, the UEN made the same mistake I feared they would... and it had the same result I had expected: their falling to the FALCON clan, thinking they have the advantage. FINALLY can we get a moment of peace and silence with the UEN off our backs! Now, with the UEN out of the question... time to carry out the rest of the plan!"

At that moment, the X Sentinel Squids had reached the now defenseless UEN solar system... and had engaged the reactor core that they had their radar spotted on! Legion upon legion teamed up and tried to take it out with the Fusion Reactor by "harnassing" it's contents until the reactor core was sucked completely dry of the energy needed to run the planets... the Fusion Reactor had laid right beside of it in the process, continuing to drain energy from it starting... now.

Gradius then teleported the unconscious UEN to another dimension. He had teleported all of the UEN, except NeoBowser, inside their very own jail cells inside of the Velvet Underground, home to the Multiverse's most dominant vampire nation... cells in which no man could break open, and no inmate could escape from. All prisoners were to stay here until they were either to have either finished their rather long sentence or were to be exiled into Death Row of the prison... the King of Vampires... Dracula, himself, in which they would be slain by.

When Assassin were to awaken, he would find himself standing in the middle of some jail cell, standing before... Mewtwo... or so it seemed.

Sgt. Mayhem: "I guess I have no choice... our long-planned operation has finally reached it's successor. My work here is done... for now. As I had predicted, the UEN failed to stop us in our attempt to, with the help of Gradius and the power of the Linxys, take over the UEN from the heart. Zero will be responsible for regulating NARC now that the operation was a success. As much as I run NARC, I have always had faith in him, that'd someday he'd be my loyal backup... and now, here's his chance to run it. Now, I shall begone with NARC... at least for now."

Sgt. Mayhem then closed his eyes, and waited for Zerodius to put him in his era of sleep...

During this time...

Seph and Goombario both charged energy at the same time...

Off: You may or may not like this post... but I think that it is quite interesting.

____________________________________________________________________

NeoBowser awakened...

NeoBowser: "What is it... I feel... so much stronger... looks like Gradius tried to attack me... Hehehe! The fool... he didn't tought for a second that it would make me stronger unstead of weaker? Anyway... this dummy must have sent them to Dracula's world... Dracula told me that himself! Little do he know that the Vampires have been planning to rebel against the Legion of Doom and follow their true master... me!"

NeoBowser *using telepathy*: "Dracula... my servants have been teleported in the cells. Now carry out Plan FALCON KILLER!"

Dracula *using telepathy*: "I exist merely to serve you..."

NeoBowser *using telepathy*: "Oh and... remember! ALL the beings you find are yours to keep exept for the son of the "Ex" being, Seph! You can ANYTHING to those under your control. Bite them, beat them, bully them around, you can even rape them if you're some kind of sick pervert! ...but the "Ex" being is mine, understood?"

Dracula *using telepathy*: "ZeroNumberX will be under your control very soon..."

NeoBowser *using telepathy*: "good. The Legion of Doom should never have trusted some whose name is "Devil's son"... especially when their enemy is the Absolute Evil, the Devil in short! Mwahahaha! Anyway! Go, Black King Dracula... no... Dark King Dracula! Go and make me proud!"

Dracula *using telepathy*: "I will do so..."

Dracula stopped speaking with NeoBowser. Death teleported next to him...

Death: "You... did... not?"

Dracula: "My... soul belongs to him..."

Death: "But what about the last wish of your wife?!?"

Dracula: "I tought that you would be happy to have more souls to chew on, Celebi!"

Death: "HEY! Only the Dark Kings shall call me by my mortal name!"

Dracula: "You are now speaking to the UEN's 10th Dark King! Go and do your job! We have much to do tonight..."

Death teleported on the roof of the prison...

Death *using telepathy*: "Double Agent Death calling Hunters HQ. Emergency! Emergency! FALCON Plan has failed! Dracula has betrayed us! Tell ZeroNumberX on the double! He must know! He must put Plan B in action or else, our only chance at gaining an advantage on the UEN will be lost!"

...

During this time...

...

Suddenly, the Goomba King was frozen in time...

Dark Weapon *thinks* Hey Seph! Looks like your son did something with that big emerald of his! Anyway! Here's your chance! Finish him off before he can use another Goomnut Storm!

...

During this time...

...

Zerodius used his powers to plunge Sgt.Mayhem into a state of deep sleep.

Sgt.Mayhem awakened inside of a world created by his own mind... in front of him, an identical copy of himself, exept that there was pure hatred in it's eyes...

For some reason, the copy looked kind of... wrong. It was as if someone had enhanced the copy's evil power and that, in truth, it was a lot less evil than what it looked like...

However, Black Death interfiered with Dracula's betrayal! It appears that, since Black Death was protected by the power of the Linxys, that it could not be possessed in any way!

As for the unprotected Dracula, the mind control seems to have worked, but "not for long" says Black Death, his one and only child.

Infact, how foolish of NeoBowser to bring her over to his presence when she is not one with him like Dracula, especially now that his own kingdom is, apparently, no longer under his control. NeoBowser was no longer in Dimension 0... he was now in his home realm... or at least, what USED to be his home realm!

Black Death (hollographic voice): "Yes, you're correct, "Dark King" NeoBowser, aka "big bad Absolute Evil", aka "name of all things sacred" aka "be-all-end-all" of Gods, hell, whatever you want to call yourself... except for one thing: I already have a ruler! Unlike you, he serves a purpose. And that is not to bring hate, slavery, and oppression to this world like you so dwell on yourself. That is to bring peace and prosperity... to all. His name... the great Gradius! And he holds more power than you'll ever have! You see... he did not give you the advantage by using the Emerald of Doom's power against you... instead, he "did the right thing" just as he said he would, and made things harder on you! You don't believe me?...look around you!"

NeoBowser looked around him... and saw a full fledged city already built around him, instead of the hellbound wasteland that was once his home! And that's not all he saw...

He also saw, standing before him, much of the entire city's population, ready to make a statement.

(Random citizen): "NeoBowser... did I hear you say "true master"?! Well, WHERE WERE YOU?! Hiding under a rock or something?! The whole time we've been standing here, ready to move into our new home, to hear you run your mouth about how the world still revolves around a fallen monarch such as yourself! You forget, NeoBowser: you are too late to stop the Legion of Doom. They have already scrapped that "junkyard" you call a home, and have rebuilt it into something useful! And since then... this planet.. scratch that. This WHOLE UNIVERSE, is no longer a monarchy... it is now a direct democracy, where's it's we, THE PEOPLE'S, first say in who gets their way, and as far as we, the people, are concerned..."

One of the "angered" citizens then gave NeoBowser the "finger" in a crude and harsh manner.

(Random Citizen): "You can go pack your bags, and go piss and moan somewhere else, because, as of this moment, you're voted off the island, scumbag! Oh, don't think we won't do it... we won't have to! Gentlemen... all in favor of the "Absolute Evil"'s impeachment... say 'aye'!"

(ALL): "AYE!"

When the loud speech stopped, NeoBowser was then automatically teleported elsewhere... he found himself standing in some sort of large line above a chain of clouds and sun, standing before an absurdly large desk and pen and paper, and with an "angelic" being behind it so large that it made even the Absolute Evil look like a tarantula in terms of size. And for some reason, this dimension sealed all power and energy rings, meaning that noone could use any of their powers here, not even the Absolute Evil. They had free speech here, and the power to walk in line... that's about it.

Black Death *telepathy*: "There is no way even my own Father can force me to turn against my friends... which is why I now seek to impersonalize that I turn against my own Father! You see, that's not all you are forgetting, NeoBowser: you also forget that the Velvet Underground isn't run by Dracula... the Velvet Underground is run by none other than ME! Dracula was only the second-in-command to this "organization" that I helped build, that he swore to protect. And since he has violated that clause... I will make sure that's TRULY the 'last thing he'll ever do' (past reference)! And also... it seems as though you have received an invitation... to the bitter depths of the graveyard in which you'll be burried under the dark moon gazes of the Undead Cemetery shortly after being beaten like the vile bottom dwelling piece of slime that you are! One of my "colleagues" has been expecting you..."

Black Death then escorted a bunch of "masked" security guards over to the jail cells... and judging by the look on their faces, they had every intention to torture the inmates! And they were human beings... or so it appeared.

"Mewtwo" interupted the (possible) escape attempt, or otherwise confidentiallity that Assassin, along with the rest of his friends, may have felt.

Mewtwo (clone): "No... Assassin. You do not understand. The Legion of Doom had already obducted our homes. You are too late. Already have the expanded their empire, and built it into something much larger, and more powerful, in ways even we could never imagine. And unfortunately for us, it won't be long until Black Death regains control over the Truebloods, and Dracula slain by his own brethren at the mercy of his betrayal. Thus, we mustn't say a word, or lift a finger, or the NWO-in-disguise will torture us all to death, with or without the Trueblood's help! Sure you can beat them without restraints... but don't be so naive as to think that you can get past an armed-and-dangerous NWO in this straight jacket!"

Black Death then rushed over to the Choir Room... and began to "sing" to the Truebloods... this was Black Death's special song that "compells" them... and for some reason, fragments of Gradius's voice had been singing with her to help strengthen the spell (primarily by the power of the Linxys; this song was to help "calm" the hatefulness and agony deep within their soul that NeoBowser had cast on them in bringing them over to his side).... this was to help them realize who their TRUE leader is!

(Now playing: Marilyn Manson-Redeemer [cover, without his voice, of course], Queen of the Damned original soundtrack)

The hunger inside given to me, makes me what I am
Always it is calling me, for the blood of man
They say I cannot be this, I am jaded, hiding from the day.
I can't bare, I cannot tame the hunger in me

Oh, I say I did it always searching, you can't fuck with fate.
So instead you'll taste my pain.
The hunger inside given to me, makes me feel alive.
Always out stalking prey, in the dark I hide.
Feeling, falling, hating, feel like I am fading, hating life.

They say I cannot be this, I am jaded, hiding from the day.
I can't bare, I cannot tame the hunger in me...
Oh, I say I did it always searching, you can't fuck with fate.
So instead you'll taste my pain.

You say your life I'm taking, always bothering me, I can't take this anymore, I'm failing, always smothering me

You look down on me, hey what you see, take this gift from me, you will soon feed from me.

Nothing seems exciting, always the same hiding

It's haunting me.
It's haunting me.
It's haunting me.
It's haunting me.

It's haunting me...

The Truebloods' anger suddenly discipated... for a moment, they stopped, and turned around to face Black Death.

Black Death: "Here me, Vampire Nation! Don't listen to Dracula, my father! He's taking everything we, the Velvet Underground, have for granted. For so long, he has made it seem as though he were here to serve and protect us... but now he clearly has betrayed us. It appears he has given us the cold shoulder, which even so isn't as cold as his black, damp heart. He doesn't care about you, anymore... infact, he never has. He's been "pretending" to be our friend from day one! He just wants us to serve the UEN, bowing down before the wretched NeoBowser. He's just using you as his slaves, as his puppets, so he obviously does not give a sh*t about any of us! He's a disgrace to everything Gradius gave us life for! And he can take it away... and he will if you do the wrong thing! Don't make the same mistake your own enemies made earlier... as much as you may or may not feel it in you, there's a part of you that desires to serve NeoBowser, fake God of evil, but an even bigger part of you that turns towards Gradius, true God of peace. There's the old saying: keep your friends close, but keep your enemies closer... and now the enemy is closer to you than ever... too close, but they all make mistakes, mistakes that keep them from understanding just how important YOU are! You are ALL too important to serve the least important people to ever have lived, the horrible UEN! Don't let them do this to you... they will only bring you death. The choice of following in the footsteps of the protagonists FALCON, and the antagonist UEN, is simply the choice of life or death... and what each choice means is at this point obvious. Dracula..."

Black Death paused.

Black Death: "I will slay you, and bury you in your own hatred, before I EVER bow down to NeoBowser! What in your right mind makes you think I would bow before a horrid man who I absolutely DESPISE?!?! Hear me out, NeoBowser! When Seph is ready, Seph will tear you apart! Because there is one thing he has that you don't have... and that is heart. And when she is through with you, she'll make you serve YOUR true purpose... and that is to rest...in...peace!"

(Meanwhile...)

Seph: "That's my boy! Anyways..."

Seph then used the Dark Weapon, and started to slash at the Goomba King religiously for as long as time were to remain frozen! It's only until everyone else could once again move that Seph would stop bashing the Goomba King around with it...

NeoBowser smiled...

NeoBowser: "Such a fine speech... but you have forgot something. I had planned for this. Dracula suspected that the vampires wouldn't follow him ever since you appeared... but do not worry, lady! I have a plan..."

NeoBowser teleported something inside of his hands. It was the legendary weapon, the Trident of Souls!

NeoBowser: "This Trident is the proof of my power... but it is more than a little toy... it is also a powerful artifact that allow me to unleash my power even when it's supposed to be sealed. While I could always Eternum you all the way to my base... it wouldn't be fun. I am going to humiliate you first by showing you to who these beings hold their loyalty! ...for you forgot that while you're their leader... I am, to them, a god! ...and if we give to the mortals the choice of following either their leader or their god, they will always choose the god..."

NeoBowser stepped toward the vampires...

NeoBowser: "I am very sad to see that you, vampires, have turned your back on your god, the great NeoBowser! Did you already forgot that it is ONLY thanks to me that this world hasn't been destroyed by daylight? It is my power that has kept the light, which is lethal to all of you, at bay. But of course, you weak mortals forgot..."

NeoBowser pointed the Trident toward the sky...

NeoBowser: "Black Death... during your speech... you spoke about fate, didn't you? Then see... your fate!"

NeoBowser struck the ground with the Trident of Souls!

An image appeared! It was showing a huge army of vampires with Black Death as their leader! The army made it in front of NeoBowser... Black Death bowed to NeoBowser... and shown Seph's head to him!

NeoBowser *in the picture*: "I knew you would do it. Now go and get ZeroNumberX's as well!"

Black Death *in the picture*: "I exist merely to serve you, master..."

The image disappeared...

NeoBowser: "Fate is such a good thing, isn't? Thanks to the Pact Dracula made, you are bound to me, Black Death. Your hatred isn't strong enough yet... but once you'll see what Seph will do... your hatred will grow... and then you'll forget you ever hated me. You'll be so happy to serve me that people will wonder if you ever was on the Hunters' side at all... and if you believe that you can break the Pact then look at this..."

NeoBowser took out a piece of paper... half of the text using written with blood, the other half using tears...

NeoBowser: "Love, Sorrow, AND Hatred. This Pact was created from these three feelings... and I fear that neither Zerodius, Gradius, or even myself wouldn't be able to un-make such a powerful pact... well... maybe I could but it would drain a lot of my power... anyway! Black Death, your soul has been promised to me at birth and no matter what you will do, it WILL be mine."

NeoBowser laughed...

NeoBowser: "Hahaha... ha... anyway! Now that I've probably smashed all of your hope into pieces... I'll take care of your people!"

NeoBowser pointed the Trident toward the sky...

NeoBowser: "Black Death... do you know why the FALCON shouldn't have trusted you and your people? Well... it's becease that I saved this world. Hard to believe, isn't it? I saved this world from destruction. One day, the star of this world transformed and became what you could call a Supernova, which spells instant doom, of course. At this time, the humans prayed their little god, which isn't real... and your people prayed me and as you can see, I'm very real. At first, I didn't wanted to save you... it is against my nature, after all. However... I saw great potential in your specie so... I reversed the flow of time and froze time at the night just before the Supernova's birth. As such, your world was now bound to my power for as soon as I would break the seal... this world would be burnt down!"

NeoBowser paused and smiled...

NeoBowser: "So, Black Death... can you take the heat? If your people really thinks it can live without me... then I'll return it to the way it was before I came... to it's doomed state! So... what do your people choose? To live as my servants... or to be burnt by the sun and become my servants anyway since their souls are promised to me?"

Zerodius *telepathy*: "Bl... B... Black Death? Can... you... hear me? Trans... sion... hard... interferences... do... not... listen... NeoBowser... Break... Pact... with... true... love... oppose... hatred... hapiness... oppose... destructive light... darkness... summon... Guardian of Darkness... Magnarius..."

NeoBowser: "Zerodius? You are still alive? I tought you had been killed back into the Prison Dimension! You are definitively harder to kill than a cockroach! But... while you're hard to kill, you are merely more than an insect compared to me! May your stupid little words be lost into the emptiness of space!"

NeoBowser used his powers to silence Zerodius.

NeoBowser: "Now that's better! Anyway... Black Death! I will give you and your people one last chance... and believe me, it is your VERY LAST chance. Turn your back to me once more and this entire world goes down into flames!"

...

During this time...

...

Time returned to normal...

Goomba King: "This... couldn't... have... happened... right?"

The Goomba King exploded in a thousands particles of light!

Voices could be heard behind the door, in the back of the room...

Goomba King: "Red! Blue! Are you positive that there is no way Seph could find the base's self-destruction activation switch?"

Red: "Absolutely! We hid it inside of the room, under one of the tiles."

Goomba King: "Under one of the... WHAT?!? YOU IDIOT! Seph will find it for sure!"

Blue: "You're sure, Boss? I don't think so."

Goomba King: "You really think you hid this well?"

Red: "Well..."

Goomba King: "We are in trouble! We must do something before Seph can find the switch!"

Blue: "Maybe we could..."

Goombario turned to Seph.

Goombario: "You heard them, Seph? These idiots hid the switch in the room! Let's find it and let's nuke this place once and for all!"

Off: A little note about Vanguard: aside from the 4 most powerful weapons in all of existance at his arsenal (Immortal Staff Hybrid, Dark Weapon Prototype, Dark Dragon Blade [Ninja Gaiden, XBOX], Unlabored Flawlessness [Ninja Gaiden, Xbox]), he also has the Armlet of Tranquility, which will (slowly) gradually replenish his Health Meter.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Unfortunately, NeoBowser's attempt to take control of them had failed from the very beginning... as soon as NeoBowser tried to reapply the Soul Bind spell, the Linxys blasted the Trident of Power, leaving it in pieces.

Black Death: "Fool... once protected, always protected. You forget that Gradius protects us for a reason... and that is to keep the world stable! It is because of sadistic maniacle fiends like you that there is so much hate around this world... and Gradius is there to take the things people take for granted, and make them better, rational... you, on the other hand, just want you way, and you just don't realize that you are not the world's saviour, anymore. Also..."

Black Death showed NeoBowser the Truebloods.

Black Death: "Even if you hadn't plunged the light into darkness, the Truebloods would still have lived. You seem to forget more things than meets the eye! These things aren't full-blooded vampires, they are half-blooded! Half human, half vampire... they contain all of the normal vampire's strengths and none of their weaknesses... except for the thirst. They are so much more dependent on blood than normal vampires that they will devour their pray at first sight. But that's beside the point. The truth of the matter is..."

Black Death stopped... for merely a few seconds.

Black Death: "These things are more under Gradius's control than my own! While they are my property, I, myself, am reserved primarily to Gradius... and quite frankly, so are you. You may have power over a lot of things, NeoBowser... but Gradius is not one of them, and neither are the beings in which he protects... it's the direct opposite: he has power over YOU! Gradius took your Soul Binds, your Power of Hatreds, and your Eternums from you... and no matter what you do, no matter how hard you try, you can NEVER get them back! But go ahead and keep trying anyway! The more you try to oppose his authority... the more you are hurting none other than YOURSELF! And you are about to find out for yourself just why...you just watch!"

Black Death then summoned Dracula over to the Velvet Underground.

Black Death: "Perhaps you have once been what you so claim to be, NeoBowser... but now, it is clear to me, and to the rest of us, that you are nothing more than a tyrant! If you are so big of a heroic, then how come your name is the Absolute EVIL?! ...Ooh, yeah! Got nothin' to say now, huh? And since it WAS Dracula who binded my soul with that of his own... I seek no further choice but to kill him on the spot! As for you..."

Dracula appeared beside NeoBowser.

Black Death: "Dracula... unlike the rest of us, you are a normal vampire and, as such, have the same weaknesses as a normal vampire! And you have the same true weakess, too! So, tell me... can you feel the heat?"

ART OF THE SUN!

Black Death then "absorbed" much of the sun's rays...

Then, she shunned thousands of gamma rays of pure sunlight at the vulnerable Dracula...

...and suddenly, steam began to build over his skin, and he was decaying as if he were about to explode! His skin was melting so quick that his skeleton began to show! It was clear that Dracula was dying, right in front of his own master, NeoBowser!

Black Death: "So, Dracula, in your final seconds of life... any last words?"

Dracula: "The...Velv...et... Undr...grnd.... will...go...down...with...me! AAAAAAAAAHHHhhh!!!"

Dracula exploded, his remains shattered but a dead skeletal corpse lying on the ground.

Black Death: "NeoBowser..."

Black Death turned to face him...

Black Death: "You want to talk darkness? Well, then darkness it'll be! As you can see, someone has been highly anticipating you... but don't consider it a reward. I'm not going to summon you where you get all the power in the world... I'm about to summon you to the one place where you can't win, NeoBowser... the Mortuary of a Thousand Souls! Now..."

A purple flame appeared before NeoBowser...

Black Death: "See you in Hell, NeoBowser!"

NeoBowser was then teleported away...

NeoBowser appeared before a dark, foggy, moist graveyard right outside a haunted funeral home, with swamps and tombstones on every corner it seemed... except these weren't normal tombstones. They were infected by some vile curse that mysteriously brings life to vicious Undead zombies, vampires hiding in coffins in the places humans would least expect to find, werewolves, dark shadows, every little boy's worst nightmare.

Suddenly, NeoBowser heard a rather loud, eerie dimensional rift...

Black Death: "NeoBowser... it's time for you to meet your undertaker! Vanguard... finish him quickly!"

(Vanguard's voice): "With pleasure!"

NeoBowser heard him loud and clear... unfortunately, that's the only real sign of him NeoBowser acknowledged at this moment.

Vanguard *telepathy*: "At last... welcome, NeoBowser, to Gradius' Mortuary of a Thousand Souls! As always, it'll be my pleasure to make sure you suffer the same fate as your predecessors, killing all those random people just for fun! You want to talk heroics, you tell me: what's the honor in that?! Therefore, I see no choice but to do the right thing... to make your life a living hell, just as you've made Black Death's, among millions of others before her! You can beat me in Hell, you can beat me on Dimension 0, hell you can even beat me on Seph's home world, but you can't beat me here! Just TRY!"

The practically-invisible Vanguard unsheated the Dark Weapon Prototype, and waited for NeoBowser to make his first move!

Vanguard: *thinks* "As much as I'd just LOVE to kill him right about now... nothing would hurt more than to perform Seph's duties for her, so I'll just weaken him so much that he won't ever walk on 2 feet again, and then I'll dig a very "special" grave for him... and bury him inside of it! Muahahahahahahahaha!!!"

During this time...

Seph: "Let's put the icing on the cake!"

Seph used "thermal" vision so that, in Seph's view, most everything was pitch blue except for certain objects, which appeared yellow, and made easy to find by this "vision". Seph turned towards whereever she would see "yellow" underneath a pillar-looking object, and picked it up, to find....

Off: Big surprise! This wasn't the real NeoBowser! Second surprise, NeoBowser takes the opportunity to try and revive one of the 4 Abominations! In this case, he will revive Legion, the monster after which the Legion category of monsters was named. Even if the enemy seems impressive, this is NOT a must-lose battle. The enemy is strong but quite possible to beat.

Also... thanks to the Linxys and all the other things Gradius did, this version of NeoBowser cannot use Eternum and NeoBowser can't infuse this body with all of his power. While this is just a fake, this version of NeoBowser is still extremely dangerous and should be terminated as soon as possible.

____________________________________________________________________

NeoBowser stared at Venguard's soul.

NeoBowser: "I can see in your soul, mortal! "As much as I'd just LOVE to kill him right about now... nothing would hurt more than to perform Seph's duties for her, so I'll just weaken him so much that he won't ever walk on 2 feet again, and then I'll dig a very "special" grave for him... and bury him inside of it! Muahahahahahahahaha!!!" ... that is what you are thinking, right? Well... I have news for you!"

The Trident of Souls reappeared in NeoBowser's hands.

NeoBowser: "You have only weak weapons. ONLY the sacred blade, Dark Weapon ZX-106 Zero, can harm me! This blade was the only Dark Weapon model ZX-106 and was the weapon Ex Lightheart used when she doomed my first body... and unfortunately, that weapon is not yours! I will also show you a little something now..."

NeoBowser smiled...

NeoBowser: "Gradius thinks that I have been stripped of the Power of Hatred and the Sealed Spell Eternum... but this is only an avatar. My real body is safely sealed in the depths of my hidden base, deep within the Prison Dimension! But anyway! This place is the resting place of thousands of souls and looks like the perfect place to bring back one of the ancient Plagues of the past..."

NeoBowser raised the Trident of Souls...

NeoBowser: "Failed copy of the Being of Emptiness, Light of fake hope, come back from the void and anwser the call of NeoBowser, your one and only master! Come... Legion!"

A little being made of red light appeared in front of NeoBowser. The being was so tiny... so cute... it was hard to believe that this was truly the Legion, one of the 4 legendary Abominations.

Legion: "I am so... lonely... so sad..."

A single soul appeared...

(random soul): "What is it, child?"

Legion: "I am lonely... will you play with me?"

The soul wanted to say no... he sensed great evil within Legion... but it's cute smile and it's gentle light erased all of his doubts... all of his worries... all of his fears... the soul approached Legion.

3 ugly tentacles came out of Legion as he assumed his real form; the form of an eye with 3 tentacles.

Legion touched the soul with one of it's tentacles and made it a part of itself... and as it did so, it's light grew stronger, attracting more souls... then, Legion repeated the operation for each of the souls... it's light growing stronger... attracting more souls... repeating the operation... it's light getting stronger...

After merely a few minutes, Legion was more than 20 times NeoBowser's size and was totaly covered by hundreds and hundreds of layers of souls...

NeoBowser: "Legion! As one of the 4 Abominations, you are fated to serve me."

Legion: "You seem different from the other souls... will you be my friend?"

Legion sent it's light on NeoBowser...

NeoBowser: "Keep your tricks for inferior beings, Legion! I am not your friend! I am your master, NeoBowser!"

Legion: "NeoBowser... father?"

NeoBowser: "Yes... your creator... your father..."

Legion: "The color of your soul... I can see it and it's similar to dad's... but I'm not sure. Can I touch it?"

Legion approached NeoBowser. A large hole appeared in Legion's coat of souls, allowing Legion to touch NeoBowser with one of it's tentacles...

Legion: "Your soul... it is burning with hatred... a warm fire of hatred... a blue fire, from which my red light was born... you are truly the one you claims to be. Fine then, father! I will do as you command..."

NeoBowser: "Legion... there is a mortal with a bright soul named Venguard. Can you see him?"

Legion: "Of course I can..."

NeoBowser: "He is your father's enemy. I would have liked him to become your friend... but his soul is unworthy. I want you to erase his consciousness. Return him to the void from which every soul was spawned!"

Legion: "If you say so, dad!"

Legion approached Venguard...

Legion: "You! You bad man! You are dad's enemy! Why do you oppose dad and his friends, the UEN? We seek to bring hapiness to everyone... to end all conflicts... By robbing every being from their consciousness, they will become one with dad and me, thus becoming soulless beings... their hatred, love, and hope will fuel us with strenght... but thanks to us, no being exept me and dad and his friends, the Dark Kings, will ever feel their own feelings since they won't have souls. We will be the only ones to actually feel anything... you'll be simply giving us strenght... and as such, you won't be able to be evil. See, I and dad are going to destroy all evils, in truth! By destroying everybody's souls, we will save the Universe! However... you will never live long enough to become a soulless being! Non-existance is the fate that awaits those that oppose me and my dad! Now... it is time for me to assume my battle form!"

An aura of red light appeared around Legion...

Legion: "Main body! TRANSFORM!"

The souls that were forming Legion's coat began to move and merged together, forming a face...

Legion: "Left arm! TRANSFORM!"

A gigantic horrific bio-mechanical spear came out of the left side of Legion's coat of souls... and so did 3 half-decomposed angel wings.

Legion: "Right arm! TRANSFORM!"

A second spear came out of the right side of Legion's coat of souls! ...exept that this one was more shaped like a real arm and was rather shorter. 3 other half-decomposed angel wings appeared on this side as well...

Legion: "Legion Battle Form! READY!"

The aura disappeared. Legion opened it's (fake) eyes and stared at Venguard...

Legion: "I'll return you to the void, bad man!"

NeoBowser advanced toward Venguard...

NeoBowser: "While this is only a fake body and while this isn't truly the Trident of Souls... this doesn't mean that I can't defeat you! Legion, let's see how this mortal does against us!"

Legion: "Venguard... you are SO going to get it! When dad's burning unholy power and my freezing holy power unites, no mortal can defeat us! Now... disappear!"

Legion did the first move. Using it's right hand, it casted Holy on Venguard, sending a sphere of pure light toward him! Upon impact, the sphere will explode forming a deadly tornado of light.

...

During this time...

...

Dark Weapon *thinks* Seph? You do not have such a skill! ... yet. Once we're out of this place, I'll tell you exactely what are the skills, abilities, and techs that you can use so that I may concentrate on making your soul resonate with me unstead of trying to keep you from hurting yourself by executing techs that you can't use. Anyway... it looks like Goombario has something to say...

Goombario: "Hey Seph! I think there's something under that tile..."

Just in front of Goombario was a rather unusual tile...

Goombario smiled.

Goombario: "I wonder what's under that tile... Seph! Use that big living sword of yours to break that tile!"

"Vanguard" simply let the wave hit him... but for some reason, when it had hit, it exploded and made an electrical sound, and hurt the attacker a *little* rather than who he tried to attack!

(Vanguard's voice): "So, another fake, eh? No surprise... you can never not need backup, three's company, typical Father-and-son type action... unfortunately, I was expecting company! Also, you've clearly never seen Ryu, ninja warrior from the Hayabusa Village, and the True Dragon Sword in action to say that the Unlaboured Flawlessness and the Dark Dragon Blade are weak... the Dark Dragon Blade is the one weapon Ryu tried, and almost failed, to protect from Doku and his legion of Greater Fiends. It is a cursed, superstitious blade of virtue that's second only to my other specialty weapon, and which turned the Dark Disciple; Murai: unloyal traitor, in disguise, into the Devil's incarnate when the seal was broken. The Unlaboured Flawlessness? Well, let's just say it wasn't always unlaboured, but pretty flawed... until the great blacksmith Muramasa built it into something so powerful, so deadly, that in terms of brute strength, makes the Dark Weapon look like a useless wooden sword from which this was made out of! Shocking, isn't it? As for you people..."

Vanguard turned around to face the Legion and his Abombinations.

(Vanguard's voice): "There's a reason why Gradius is now in charge of ruling this dimension, and not NeoBowser: because, to you, NeoBowser is a hero, a saviour, a living legend, and it's us who are out to disturb the peace he has made, but it's the rest of the Multiverse, which is many, MANY more people than your father's little "clan", who says different! Just comes to show you: when you have yourself as your only friend, and the whole rest of the world as your worst enemy, in the end you will prove to be rather... misfortunate... and you are no exception! Not only that, but also... I'm about to show you who's the true master of "faking" his enemie's way into submission!"

Suddenly, Vanguard reappeared in front of Legion... or so it appeared.

Vanguard: *thinks* "Oh, yes, that's the spirit! Like father, like son... but what these fools don't know is that I am not only protected by the Linxys, but I am powered by it as well! Everything NeoBowser has seen Gradius do, everything NeoBowser knows he can, and is utterly capable of doing... I can do the same! But I won't do that since that's a bit "cruel"... instead, I'll put NeoBowser and his "little baby" along the same boat as Doku, Vigoor, the Black Spider Clan, and the Holy Vigoor Empire were in when they faught the great Ryu... their last...ride...home...together... hahaha!"

(On Xavior)

Mewtwo clone, "pretending" to look disgruntled and held onto the railbars on the cell he was in, stopped and turned around some more to face one of his own inmates, which was secretly kept... but that secret wouldn't be kept for long, it seemed... with all those "bodyguards" standing outside guarding them, watching their every moves like a hawk.

(Mewtwo clone): "They've been planning this since day one... it's what they've wanted... it's what their damp souls needed... to keep us behind bars, with no hope of escaping... and well, here we are. They'll let us live for now, but God only knows how much longer they'll wait before deciding to finally kill us all! These times of suffering, dehydration, starvation... worst of all, our own fate. They'll kill us in these straight jackets for Christ's sake! STOP! I WANT OUT!! SOMEBODY HELP ME!!"

The guards then hurried over to the cell, with a crowbar out and all, standing right before the locked cage door... they did NOT look happy... but for some reason, they were more than happy deep inside... they just didn't look it.

During this time...

Seph then rushed over to where Goombario was standing, and didn't hesitate to slice the tile open!

It revealed none other than...

Legion: "Hey! I felt something!"

NeoBowser: "Pah! If you're going to tell me each time you feel a particuliar feeling..."

Legion: "No! That's not what I meant! I think that this bad man scratched me with some kind of counter-attack!"

NeoBowser: "Whatever. You are the very being that sealed Gradius into this dimension. You have nothing to fear from him or his servants."

Legion: "I did?"

NeoBowser: "Yep. That's why you're one of the 4 Abominations. Only you was powerful enough to seal the Arch-God Gradius into his own world. Gradius was believed to be the mightiest Hunter-made creature ever created... and you crushed him in seconds."

Legion: "Wow! I really did that?"

NeoBowser: "Yep!"

Legion: "Then tell me... why did that bad man, who is supposed to be much weaker, has been able to even touch me?"

NeoBowser: "Becease that you had several billions friends when you defeated Gradius... and right now, you merely have 500 hundred friends."

Legion: "Oh, too bad!"

NeoBowser: "Anyway... this guy claims that the Unlaboured Flawlessness is more powerful than even the Dark Weapon... we shall see!"

NeoBowser dashed toward Vanguard and tried to stab him with the Trident of Souls!

NeoBowser *thinks* Heeheehee! This may be just an avatar... but if I still absorb ALL damage and turn it into raw power... unless it's coming from Ex Lightheart's Dark Weapon, of course. If this Vanguard thingy is really wielding the legendary Unlaboured Flawlessness, made by the one and only Muramasa, then a single hit from this sword should restore me to full power instantly! I hope he will be stupid enough to hit me with it...

...

During this time (Prison, unknow dimension)...

...

Captain Dark: "Yo man, yo! Shall we go on with Plan B, man?"

Assassin: "DUH! Yes, you moron!"

Captain Dark: "Alright man! Yo man, yo!"

Fierce Deity: "You're REALLY starting to be annoying, didn't you knew that?"

...

During this time (Dimension 1, Front Line Base)...

...

Under the tile was... a blue Mario-style switch!

Goombario: "Hey! It's a switch! You know how to activate Mario-style switches, right? You jump on them, that's how you do it! In fact, most switches on most dimensions can be activated this way. I would activate that switch myself but I'm not heavy enough to do it, Seph! Go on and jump on it!"

Off: If you've played Ninja Gaiden for Xbox, you should already be familiar with the character that Vanguard is about to turn NeoBowser into in this post. If not, here's a pic of his face... and here's a pic of his back.

Also, now that Vanguard has cast the spell on NeoBowser, his stats, HP, MP, strengths and weaknesses, everything of Doku now sums up NeoBowser. NeoBowser can still use his true form's powers and abilities while in this form, but he'll no longer have those redicilously high stats that his demon-turtle form had.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Vanguard focused... and literally destroyed the Trident of Souls using the Linxys... this time, completely.

Vanguard: "You sealed him into his own dimension... but you did not kill him! Such accomplishments you have achieved were well before he even became an Immortal... and it was thanks to your banishing him into the Sands of Time in which he had obtained such a power. Now, there's nothing even you, NeoBowser, can do, that I cannot! I can even do THIS!"

EVOLUTION!

A blue spear formed over NeoBowser...

Vanguard: "Incase you haven't already noticed, I'm about to make you change form. You problably won't like who I am about to change you into, but since you ARE just a fake clone, it only makes sense that you don't live forever... NeoBowser..."

TRANSFORMATION... DOKU!!

NeoBowser suddenly changed form!

Instead of being the demon-turtle hybrid fiend, NeoBowser changed into a black knight in shining armor... he now looked like a Shogun who, astoundishly, had no face... just a blue flame of soul energy as his head. Alias Doku... this was the leader of the Great Fiends that Ryu, Master of the Dragon Sword, had defeated, and, while the true Doku was dead and banished, this was just phony NeoBowser's cloned form of him... which he would be stuck inside of until his Life Force had reached 0 (in short, dead).

Vanguard: "So... how do you like it? Wha... you don't?! HMPH! I gave you a chance to reveal your "true" self, and this is how you repay me?! Well, love it or hate it, you can't change back... I siced one of Gradius's spells on you, and you're stuck in this form until you die inside of it, both body and soul... which is when I will bury you inside one of these Undead Graves, which you shall be fed to thousands of Lurker Zombies that roam here! Such a great power to have, isn't it? Normally I wouldn't be able to do this, but since Gradius can do so, and now that I am embowed with all of his powers... I can, too! Now... you, Legion!"

Vanguard turned around, and waved both hands around in a karatic-pattern and rhythm...

Then, his hands flashed, and an aurora formed around both (or all) the Legion's arms/tenticles/armnaments, and another around both Vanguard's wrists....

And suddenly, something "tugged" onto him and started to throw his weight all over at full throttle!

...A chain that Vanguard formed, and binded the enemies's soul into his own chain!

Vanguard: "Onguard!"

Vanguard "pulled"... and sent Legion flying directly towards Vanguard head first... when he had the clear shot, he then whacked him with a powerful blow of the Dark Dragon Blade right to the skull...

Then, he started whipping Legion up and down, back and forth, violently into the ground for a while...

Then, he threw Legion back to face Vanguard yet again, only this time, he pulled out the Immortal Staff Hybrid... and pierced it right through Legion's chest... as he was doing this, he put him in a Grab attack that continued to drain Life Force from Legion... and that Life Forced translated into raw power when Vanguard stole it from him!

During this time,

3 more copies of Vanguard appeared... and they were each handed the Dark Weapon Prototype, Dark Dragon Blade, and Unlaboured Flawlessness... and with Legion still pinned, they all began to beat up on him neciciously from all 4 angles, each with their own weapons. Then, after a few hundred blows with each of the 4 weapons, Vanguard then sent Legion hurling into the sky, and let him go of the Chain of Souls by detonating it... when it reached Legion, it made a HUMONGOUS explosion and with a symptom of dizzyness from being swung and beaten around so many times.

Chain of Souls: Despite the name, this spell has little or no similarities with NeoBowser's Soul Bind whatsoever... except that it attacks the being directly from the soul. When used, the target is left defenseless and it's soul is chained right to the caster, creating a direct link between the two. In short, the target becomes prone to any and all of the user's next attacks until he decides to set the target free of this spell.

(On Brooklyn, New York, Velvet Underground)

More guards heard something... and they came and investigated IMMEDIATELY!

(Guard): "Alright, that's it, you dumbfucks... I'm not gonna count to 3, hell, I'm not even gonna count to 1! You are all obviously too nilminded to read... the number one rule here is that ANY AND EVERY escape plan inmates make WILL be thwarted, and be reasoned with on pain of death! And since you can't teleport while in these straight jackets (these are "special" straight jackets that prevent the person wearing them from teleporting AS WELL AS moving their arms or feet), I don't see how you could even ATTEMPT to escape from this place... but the bottom line is I don't want to hear any more of it! If I hear ONE MORE PEEP out of ANY of you cockdiesel motherfuckers, I'll fuckin' TAKE YOUR THROATS AND SHOVE IT RIGHT DOWN YOUR MOTHERFUCKING ASSESS!! Hear me, you pathetic bucket of monkey spunks?!"

(On Front Line Base)

Seph: "Aye aye!"

Seph then let the switch lay flat face on the ground level to her, and then jumped on it! The end result...

NeoBowser watched as Vanguard attacked Legion... and did no damage. In fact, it didn't hurt Legion at all...

Legion *while being slammed in the ground*: "WEEEEHEE! That is fun!"

NeoBowser: "Stop fooling around! Kill him already!"

Legion *held over Vanguard's head*: "Hey dad! That spell turned you into a Black King!"

NeoBowser: "Interesting... this body was turned into a Black King. Anyway..."

NeoBowser summoned the... wait a minute! Isn't the Trident of Souls supposed to be destroyed? Yep, indeed, NeoBowser has summoned it... again.

NeoBowser: "As long as the real Trident is intact, I can repair this fake copy as long as there is Life Force in this body."

NeoBowser laughed...

Vanguard tried to suck Legion's Life Force... but ended up sucking nothing but air.

Legion: "WEEEHEE! Fun!"

NeoBowser: "What the f... WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?!?"

Legion: "That guy is funny! Do we really have to kill him?"

NeoBowser: "YES!"

Legion: "If you put it that way..."

Legion tried to stab Vanguard with it's right arm (the spear one).

...

During this time (unknow dimension, Prison)...

...

Assassin: "He's a bit loud, isn't he?"

Captain Dark: "Yes..."

Suddenly... a wave of darkness came from somewhere, making ALL UEN agents deaf...

In front of the guard, an incredibly creepy green alien-looking faerie... and yet, she looked strangely sexy...

Death: "Hey guys! Wanna hear a song?"

The faerie began to sing... her song was so beautiful that all those who heared it (exept the UEN agents, who were turned deaf) died instantly...

Captain Dark: "Yo Celebi! Your songs are as lovely as usual!"

Death: "Get it straight! I'm Death. DEATH! D-E-A-T-H! Never call me by that name ever again! I'm Death, got it?"

Captain Dark: "I don't know what you said becease that I'm deaf but it must have been lovely, Celebi!"

Death: "I feel... the... urge... rising... to... kill..."

...

During this time (Dimension 1, Front Line Base)...

...

Goomba King as well as Red & Blue opened the door and approached Seph...

Goomba King: "Hey Seph! If you find a weird switch under one of the tiles in this room, you should definitely not press it! It's dangerous, you see?"

Goombario: "You're too late! Seph pressed it!"

Goomba King: "WHAT?!? You pressed it? OH NOOOOOOOO!"

Computer: "Emergency! Emergency! Self-destruction sequence activated!"

Goombario: "Well Seph! Looks like we have to es..."

BOING!

The tile under Seph and Goombario transformed into a spring, sending the duo out of the base!

Back in the base...

Red: "You idiot! You had to activate the tile under US not under THEM!"

Blue: "You think so?"

BOOM!

The whole base exploded, sending Goomba King, Red, and Blue sky high!

Goombario: "Yay! Victory! We defeated the first of Kamek's Guardians! 1 down, 7 to go!"

...

During this time (Dimension 1, Koopa Castle)...

...

Kamek was in his room, watching over the operations of the UEN in this world via his computer when suddenly...

Kammy: "GREAT DARK KING!"

Kammy, his wife, entered the room! Obviously, she was upset...

Kamek: "What is it, beloved?"

Kammy: "A report, sir! The Hunters' new agent, Seph, has defeated the Goomba King and nuked our Front Line Base!"

Kamek: "What?!? I restored Goomba King to his former form becease he begged me... and Seph whips him so easily? What a wimp! Anyway, are you ENTIRELY positive that there is no way Seph could make it here and somehow... well... kill me?"

Kammy: "Don't worry my dear! This castle is in high orbit above the planet! Unless Seph can find a spaceship, there's no way he can make it here! Furthermore, this castle is protected by a magical barrier powered by 8... I mean 7 of our finest agents! And even if he can actually break it down, the castle itself is a huge maze that require the use of Mario's legendary equipment pieces. Unless Seph can retrieve them, he'll never make it here!"

Kamek: "I'm so relieved! OK, so who is the agent who's the closest to Seph? The best defense is offense! Let's finish this quickly!"

Kammy: "I believe it is the Koopa Brothers!"

Kamek: "Them? Again? Didn't Ex Lightheart kill them for good years ago?"

Kammy: "Our great lord and master, NeoBowser, has revived them and they're stronger than ever!"

Kamek: "Pah! I won't believe it until I see it!"

???: "Then believe it, sir!"

4 Koopa wearing ninja bandanas jumped in front of Kamek!

Red Koopa: "We're the coolest among the coolest! Yeah!"

Kamek: "I wonder why NeoBowser wasted his time reviving you. Goomba King was huge and he couldn't stop Seph! Why would you?"

Red Koopa: "Get real! Goomba King was huge, sure, but he was one heck of a bonehead! We're nothing like this wimp! We shall use the power of teamwork to put an end to Seph's attempt to overthrow the UEN's reign... once and for all!"

Kammy: "That's the spirit! Now sell it!"

Red Koopa: "Yes sir!"

The Koopa Bros. gathered...

SWIIIIZ...

SCHZOIIING!

BLAAAAM!

BOOOM!

Kamek: "WOW! You guys REALLY improved since last time! That tech is reallly... REALLY impressive! Level Omega at least! If you finish off Seph with that attack... she'll stand no chance!"

Red Koopa: "That was impressive, wasn't it?"

Kamek: "Yes... but don't be overconfident. Your foe is an "Ex" being... an outdated one but she's still an "Ex" being. Show no mercy and terminate her quickly! Anyway... I have a question for you..."

Red Koopa: "What is is, sir?"

Kamek: "While you're here... who's leading the armies occupying Pleasant Path?"

The Koopa Bros. looked a bit... upset...

Kamek: "So, who is leading the armies?"

Red Koopa: "Errr... no one, sir! We're here and all..."

Kamek: "YOU IDIOTS! USE YOUR HEADS! GO BACK TO THE SURFACE AND LEAD THE ASSAULT, DUMMIES!"

Red Koopa: "AAAAAAAAARG! Yes yes yes yes!"

The Koopa Bros. rushed out of the room...

Kamek: "What a gang of morons... I just hope they won't screw up! Ganondorf has been insinuating that my Guardians are a bit weak lately... and I don't want to look like an idiot in front of the other Dark Kings and even less in front of NeoBowser himself!"

Kammy: "Don't worry dead! They'll do it!"
