--Mayor's tower--
-3:29, Tuesday-

Three men had shot a hallway full of scientists and defense robots known as R.O.B machines.

"You sure we'll be ok?" The one in black and red armor asked.

"Trust me S has this in the bag." the one in blue armor said.

"Let's just get in there and kill that bastard in there, alright you two?" S asked. The two other men nodded, and they kicked down the door of the dictator taking orders from the colonist.

"Hold on don't shoot please!" The leader yelled.

"A you conformist, when they came you allowed them to take us all hostage as a part of his system." S said.

"Yeah Y and I, the me I not I I, have lost everything because of them." The blue one said clutching his fist.

"I had no choice otherwise..." A stopped mid-sentence in horror. S looked slowly to his left... Then to his right.

"Surprise!" A masked man yelled starting fighting S.

He elbowed the blue one's gun away and fired a knife into his chest, then kicked S in the leg sweeping the knee of the other and holding his hands together and the masked man's left eye started glowing red and a beam shot through S' skull leaving a gaping steaming hole in the forehead. The red and black one started running back down the hall but getting stopped by a robotic cat with semi-moving parts on it with two robots on his side a C14P-Tr4P unit and a R.O.B machine.

"Ah, thank you Z, now A broadcast this on all the city." A voice said. A masked figure from the shadows revealed himself to be a purple cat wearing a cloak. "Now you two give him a haircut." He continued. A watched as a droid picked up the camera.

"So what's your name exactly?" The cloaked one asked

"U, that's my name." U said as the C14P unit shaved some of his stubble with and old old-school razor blade.

"Ah, y'know what's funny is how the people on your planet is that you're all called as a letter of the alphabet, in most languages too it's fairly fascinating." The cloaked one said. "But I gotta ask, why go through this trouble to kill A, if I must add he's a puppet to my grander plan." He continued whispering the last part.

"My family, my wife she was shot at by those Rob robots and the multiple other machine attacks you hide from the medi-*Ack*" U was cut off by the black cat's hand with flames in his eyes. He snapped making a healing unit rush in and shooting at the man with a heal beam as A watched it all go down. The cloaked cat grabbed the razor and started slowly cutting off the man's face as he started screaming in agony while the cat stayed silent, he then peeled it off an threw it into the trash bin.

"Nurse keep him steady, Z rub some salt into that wound." The cat said maniacally as Z did it literally causing more pained screams.

"lease end nehehe." U screamed in an agonized state.

"You want an end to your story?" He asked.

"Take it." He said handing a gun to the man without a face. He held it to his own face wishing for the sweet release of death, he had nothing, his wife had died with his kids. The man struggled pulling the gun to his chin, a loud gunshot rang from the room as he went limp. "Now people of Lexitron, you should now know not to rebel, or you'll end up as a blood stain on the road." He said grabbing the camera and turning it off. "ugh, fucking rebels." He said kicking the faceless corpse before turning at A.

"Well I'm sorry sir they snuck in and-"

"I don't care if they teleported in the gun, use it next time." He continued. Then a portal opened in front of the cat. "Z, Gumbot come, we have business to do." The dark purple cat said beckoning the robot and masked man. A stood as they left, saluting the tyrant.

"Now Shadow man, is Project Doomsday working?" The cat asked.

"Well Mr. Black-cat it needs some more energy, but it can do enough damage to wipe a small-scale town." The shadow said.

"How small scale are we talking?" Mr. Black-cat said.

"Eh, the size of something from the wild west." Shadow man said tapping his tablet.

"We need more power then, perhaps something from an alternative universe will do." Mr. Back-cat said tapping his face.

"By the way boss Mania has been helping out with scouting for villainous opportunities, I think a good place to start would be who he calls Ivo." Shadow man continued taking his candy cane colored cane out and twirling it.

"Yes I do believe it is a great place to start, but I have had one thing on my mind since this started, a certain target who I think I am ready to take care of." Black cat said as the two arrived in his office. "Do you know what I mean Shadow man?" Black-cat asked tapping his fingers.

"Wha?" Shadow Man asked with shrunken eyes.Black-cat then grabbed a walkie talkie and then tuned it.

"Z, I have a mission for you, hunt down and kill that certain chosen one." He said as Shadow man gasped.

"Yes sir." Z said.

"Boss, we're actually gonna kill him, what about the other two?"

"Not to worry shadow, they'll need him to become their most powerful."

"Oh yeah, gee I bet he doesn't even know we're about to kill him, he'll be deader than some possum playing dead, of course unless he at the rightest of times found it." Shadow Man said playfully not realizing the hint of sarcasm in his mouth.

"Shut up Shadow Man."

A looked in his desk for a gun, found one, and pointed it at his head tearing up at what he'd become, that horrid cat who enslaved his planet, turning it into a commonwealth. He slowly squeezed the trigger before the He then threw the gun out of rage, panting heavily as he saw the bloodstains still on the rug. Metallic thuds began echoing from the hallway. A looked seeing a sleek robot that was predominantly light blue and had yellow stripes, Black-Cat's Magnum Opus Gumbot then walked inside with another metallic next to yet slightly behind him.

"A, I Require that you leave the area for the maintenance work immediately." The robot said as the metallic grabbed a wrench in excitement.

"Of course." A said.

"And the gun, if you're going to end yourself, I'd suggest doing it in your own home." Gumbot said handing A his pistol.

Z Watched as the new machine, the Telemension was brought to him by R.O.BS rolling in.

"Where do I go?" Z asked.

"Here take this, it's where to go and how to get back, make sure to kill that man, if you fail, I must warn of Mr. Black-cat's wrath." A R.O.B machine said as Z typed the coordinates in causing a yellow portal open.

He took one step in then took his foot out to check if it was completely safe and lo and behold it was. Well this was it, another assassination to go for Z, in fact his five hundredth to come from Mr. Black-cat no less.

Slowly he walked into the portal to find his target... and end him.

-Elmore, California-

"Dude wake up, wake up, wake up, Gumball Wake Up!"

"Gah, What the what dude?" Gumball asked his brother Darwin who had been shaking him.

"Dude it's New Years y'know when our double date with Penny and Carrie." Darwin said making the usual lazy cat jump up and run to the bathroom to clean himself up. "That's the spirit." Darwin said "Snapping" his "fingers". The two had started making themselves look great for that there date. Once they got done, they took a walk down the town covered in snow which was uncanny since they were in California, but hey better than LA.

"Yo yo yo what up G-ball, D-fish." Tobias said flinging his own fingers like guns.

"Hey Tobias what are you doing here?" Gumball asked.

"Well let's just say you should try some of this." The rainbow guy said holding a paper bag with a bottle in it. Gumball and Darwin examined the bottle with the fish taking a whiff of the bottle part making his face scrunch up.

"Gross it smells like a skunk's road killed butt." Darwin said.

"Yeah I know, but it's a form of courage, in a liquid form as they say." Tobias said putting his arms on his hips.

"And what do you want us to do with that?" Gumball asked stroking his chin.

"Well drink up of course." Tobias said holding up the bottle.

"If you think I'm dumb enough to put that in my body with it's rank smell, no way!" Darwin said as Gumball pondered it.

"Y'know what Tobias, meet me after my date and I'll try some." Gumball said as Darwin glared at him. "And just in case Darwin don't snitch or I'll tell mom about Carrie's age." Gumball said as Darwin's face shrank in fear. "yeah, I gotcha" Gumball said smugly chuckling. After meeting Tobias the brothers started walking together again on the sidewalk seeing all the sights Elmore had to offer such as the Joyful Burgers on every side of a block as a corporate monopoly. The two just kept cruising along wondering what to do as their date wasn't till eight, so they just had to wait. "Hey lucky we bought suits right dude?" Gumball asked a still salty Darwin. Darwin stayed silent. "Dude c'mon, I'm not gonna force you to do anything you don't want, I'm just gonna do my own thing heading home." Gumball said shrugging.

"Look dude I just- I just- I don't want you getting hurt, you know Tobias, he's flippy if you catch my drift." Darwin said in a ticked off manner.

"Dude Tobias and I are cool, besides if he was planning stuff Penny would do something about it." Gumball said.

"Fine I guess I'll believe in you just don't tell Mrs. Mom about Carrie's age." Darwin said

"Sure, I mean you're dating her spirit not her corpse six feet underground." Gumball joked as his brother sighed.

"Shut up!" Darwin yelled resisting the urge to laugh.

"Nah, it's fun hearing your baby voice yell.

"Carrie finds it cute." Darwin pouted.

"Of course she does everyone finds you cute." Gumball said with a smirk. Darwin punched his cat brother in the arm laughing himself to death. "Ok dude let's stop, I already know one ghost too many I don't think this town needs more." Gumball joked even more as he and his brother were on the ground laughing, weirding out the other townsfolk in the process. The two had gotten home and were getting ready, Gumball had put on a black suit and a blue (clip on) tie meanwhile Darwin was wearing white tipped black shoes and a fedora, which he somehow pulled off. The two went downstairs and saw their mom and dad, Nicole and Richard Watterson.

"Oh, my babies are dating, oh they grow up so fast." Nicole said in a mix of joy and nostalgia.

"Yep, I can't wait to be a grandfather." Richard said.

"Richard they're thirteen and eleven, I think it's a little bit early to start thinking about grand babies." Nicole whispered. "Now you two have fun and be back before eleven thirty for our New Year's celebration." Nicole said waving goodbye as the brothers saw their girlfriends Penny and Carrie. Penny hugged Gumball who accepted it without hesitation meanwhile it was vice versa with Darwin and Carrie.

"So off to Dinner?" Gumball asked.

"Well I guess so." Penny replied.

"You'd let me possess you right Darwin?" Carrie asked.

"Of course." Darwin said smiling. The four were in the restaurant eating pizza and laughing together, Carrie even showed proper manners when possessing Darwin.

"Wow, honestly pretty cool." Gumball said as Penny nodded. Once they were finished Gumball decided to walk Penny home.

"So Gummy-puss how've you been?" Penny asked.

"Pretty good, although, I have been having some weird dreams." He replied.

"About what?"

"Well tons of stuff, floating in space, running through hills, and... A portal sucking me into some place and it's always something new like robots, or a fortress, or even a cutesy place." Gumball said clutching his right arm.

"Oh, well I'm sure it's all a dream." Penny said.

"Don't jinx it." Gumball joked as they made it to her house.

"See ya." Gumball said waving goodbye.

"Oh wait!" Penny said before kissing Gumball on the cheek. Gumball was in a daze after that.

"Never gets old." He said while snapping. Gumball then met up with Tobias who gave him the brown bagged bottle.

"You ready for that courage?" The rainbow kid asked. Gumball nodded and took a huge swig, the liquid inside tasted bitter and awful but the blue cat endured. "So how is it?"

"Awful, just awful." Gumball said giving it back. Gumball then went down the ally yet couldn't help the feeling of being watched.

"Should we?"

"Not yet wait until he's on the other side." Gumball then walked out and took a right. "Now prepare the ambush." Suddenly in front of Gumball a blue blur got in front of him.

"Hey kid, how does it feel meeting the OG Sonic T. Hedgehog." A blue hedgehog said as a red dot targeted the cat's head.

"Woah! Oh hey a penny, must be my lucky-" Gumball said as he bent down making a bullet miss his head. The shot did make noise allowing Gumball to see the red dot.

"Welp I guess the jig is up." Sonic said before spin dashing at the cat's head. The two collided but Gumball was semi-unharmed. "Gah son of a- jeez!" Sonic said clutching his head. He then tried again getting hurt and giving Gumball a plan.

"What's wrong hedgy can't hit me?" Gumball mocked.

"Why you!" The hedgehog charged up making Gumball headbutt him into the street. "Ow" The hedgehog said in pain before getting ran over by a car revealing robotic parts and oil. Suddenly a robot flew in looking some-what like Sonic but more so robotic. (A.K.A he was a Metal Sonic lookalike.)

"Good show, Good show indeed, however the great Metal shall strike you down." Metal said.

"Wait so you're made of metal and your name is Metal." Gumball said.

"Yes now die." Metal said spinning something on his torso having it stop on a face; he then pulled small TVs with the same face and threw them at Gumball.Gumball however dodged each one with less than graceful way and tossed a rock at the robot. However it was caught by a wire and destroyed.

"What the..." Gumball said. Z then walked in and pointed at the cat.

"Prepare to parish, Watterson." Z said as a red chicken and a Mega Man look alike walked in next to him. "Get him." Z said as the chicken and boy ran at him Gumball knew he had to run and get outta there. He ran and looked back to see blue blurs at high speed.

"The what?" He asked as the lookalike stopped him.

"Backwards wong-jumping, by the way my names Mega." Mega whispered. Gumball heard a monitor noise and a chicken cluck at the same time and moved out of the way of the monitor. "Uh oh." Mega said as he got hit by the monitor in the face.Gumball continued running as the chicken was as fast as he was and pecked at his feet.

"Woh- gah- ahhahahahahah!" He yelled as he tap danced out of the beak.

"*Ba-Gawk*" It screeched Gumball then pushed the bird into a sign flattening the bird and making it slide off.

"Well Gumball looks like we're mono y mono!" Metal yelled swiping at the cat.

"Why are you even- *Urk*" Gumall felt something hit his neck. The feline then fell down on his face and was knocked out cold making Metal stop in an awkward motion as the chicken and the boy walked up.

"Mega is that Sonic's head?" Metal asked.

"Yes he's carrying me, but I need repairs ok!" Sonic yelled.

"Anyways what did you do?" Metal asked as Z came down from a tree.

"Tranquilizers, we should just leave him in a river." Z said, looking at the child, strangely despite being a mostly merciless killer, keyword mostly, kids were something he wouldn't kill, he was sure his employer knew so letting the child die to the elements.

"I'll do it." Metal said grabbing Gumball's leg and dragging him to the forest. The robot had made it to a river and looked at the blue cat. "Hmph, what is so special about you really?" The robot asked as he tossed the cat's body into the river, soon it was dragged away by water, Metal knew that now he'd be on the top, with respect, people loyal to him, and even a T.V show in which he'll meet his idol... but for now he'll show his boss the "corpse" (For now at least) of Gumball Watterson.

"Hello... can you hear me... wake up... Wake up... WAKE UP!" Gumball felt something on his face and ringing in his ear, he soon remembered being chased down by robots and then something hitting his neck knocking him out. Then he realized he was in the forest not of doom thankfully just a forest.

"What the- shoot Mom's gonna kill me!" He yelled grabbing his phone which was broken and waterlogged. "No no nononononononono NO!" He screamed. He kept looking for some way to fix his phone before seeing something in the distance, something glowing, a blue color. "What the..." He began following the light to see a handle in a stone covered in moss surrounded by birds and squirrels. He walked up to it and grabbed the handle causing a surge of energy causing his eyes to glow blue.

"Gumball, I know you can't see me." A mysterious woman's voice laughed.

"Wh- who are you?"

"Right now it doesn't matter, what does is that handle." The voice said. Gumball just stood there.

"Well pull it out already!" She yelled. Gumball with a semblance of strength yanked the sword out and felt a shock as it dissipated into particles entering his body. He soon was transported into a reddish cloudy world with floating islands with trees growing red leaves, he couldn't tell if he fell or flew while in front of him a tan woman with a fairly open outfit revealing her middle was in front of him. "Congratulations Watterson, you're a hero, now bring perfection to this world." The voice said as Gumball felt the ground disappear underneath him bringing him to his house.

"Ugh, What the what, oh thank glob it's my house." He said as his mom opened the door.

"Gumball Tristopher Watterson get in here!" She yelled.

"Can you believe it Darwin, grounded!" Gumball the blue feline yelled.

"Dude I'm not the one who drank "liquid courage"" Darwin replied.

"I only had a sip and thought it was terrible, besides I was knocked out and woke up in the forest pulled a cool sword out a-and then I-"

"Let me stop you right there dude, we both know that head of yours is too big to get you knocked out." Darwin said shaking his... body I guess.

"Dude out of all people you are the most likely to know what I mean!"

"It's not Darwin's responsibility to keep you out of trouble y'know." A voice said from behind Gumball. It was Carrie who had her arms crossed and looked angered.

"Carrie?" Gumball said as his little sister Anais walked in. She was a pink rabbit with a brown dress as well as a huge brain adding to her slightly inflated somewhat deserved ego.

"Yeah Gumball accountability is something you have to learn in order to grow as a person." The pink rabbit said.

"Look can't I just explain myself, you guys are putting me down lower than an anchor who eats too much." Gumball said taking a seat on his bed.

"Fine tell the "whole" story." Carrie said grabbing on to Darwin.

"Ok so, I walked through an alleyway and then this Sonic looking guy came up to me pointed out a penny which let me avoid my demise and then he tried spin attacking me which I ended up hurting him and after a few times I head butted him into a car breaking him to pieces and THEN-"

Mr. Black-Cat looked at Metal, Sonic, Mega, Stuart, and... Z all with disappointment.

"I can't believe it, out of my strongest workers you failed to kill a measly thirteen year old, I am immeasurably disappointed, and my day is practically ruined!" He yelled at the five.

"Hey don't blame us, and by us I mean Me, Mega, and the chicken, blame Metal and Z, they only Tranqed him and left him in a river." Sonic the (not) Hedgehog said.

"Oh pipe down, you were disassembled by a head-butt and a car." Metal replied crossing his arms.

"Oh yeah well how abou-"

"SILENCE!" Black-Cat ordered. "I've sent Mania and Shadow Man to track and off that blue menace, is that clear?" Black-Cat asked as his claws came out. The two robots then nodded and replied with multiple weak yesses

"Now Z, I was least expecting you to not finish him off." Black-Cat said as Z had his stoic face still on.

"Well sir, you should've told me it was a child and should've fully read my contract knowing that I wouldn't kill anyone under eighteen." Z Said glaring down the person who had probably thought so little of him.

"Hmph, fine, you all may carry on, I have my own business to attend to." Black-Cat said as he pulled his Telemension out to the "Interviewing" Room.

"-Okay, do you guys know where I'm coming from now?" Gumball asked.

"No" "Not a clue Gumball." "Definitely not"

Gumball then felt something, a disturbance in the neighborhood.

"Penny" He mumbled.

"Wha-" Darwin was cut off by Gumball leaping out the window prepared to land on his feet, but instead he landed on his face.

"Owmf" But he still got up and ran like Tom Hanks in that one movie. Darwin, Carrie, and Anais all sighed and nodded chasing after him. Soon Gumball had made it to the Fitzgerald household and heard screaming of a middle aged man.

"Gah, not a frickin minotaur!" The voice yelled

"Oh right Penny's a cool shape shifter fairy she's got this." Gumball said before hearing a strange laugh.

"H̶̹̔o̸̩͑̂ ̴̢̜͝h̷͙̖͘o̸̮̘̎̃ ̸̳͊̌h̶̢̤̽̉ö̴̝̗ ̴̟̦̏h̸̠̣̔o̷̥̜͋̍ ̷͖̈́h̸̙̤̚ö̷͙́̂ ̶̜̺̒h̶̥͙̓ò̵̧̜"

"Ok I should at least check." The cat said running and jumping over the fence seeing a shadowy man with a giant candy cane in his hands.

"Huh, ay Mania we found that chosen one the boss was talkin' bout, should we kill em'?" The shadow man asked. Suddenly an eldritch mass of tentacles formed itself into a hedgehog that looked at Gumball and laughed.

"You're joking, You are joking right?" Mania asked.

"Okay I guess I don't know about this stuff okay now where's my girlfriend?" Gumball asked.

"Oh that one?" Shadow man "asked" mockingly as he pointed to Penny on the floor knocked out.

"Penny!" Gumball yelled as he approached her body.

"She's not dead, yet." Mania the hedgehog snickered. As Gumball's back was turned Mania's face morphed into beige tentacles and then sharpened themselves prepared to stab the blue cat. The shadow meanwhile pointed his candy cane like a shotgun.

"You'll be needin' anotha use for that neck." He whispered imitating an Aussie bloke.

"Hero, behind you!" That same woman's voice yelled in Gumball's head. He turned around and summoned the sword as the "Hedgehog's face" tentacles charged. Suddenly salt flew at them and made them sizzle causing an unholy screech of pain.

"A̶̝̪͗̓h̸̛̳̒ ̶̻̚s̶̲̽h̵̛̰i̸̡̖͂̚ẗ̷̨̰,̵̖̏ ̸̧̏̾I̸̠̋͝ ̸͓̺̈́͘c̸͔̖̾á̵̟ñ̷̢'̶̰̕ṭ̷̮̈́ ̵͙̋b̷̛͙̻͛ȩ̴̦͝ḷ̵͝i̵͇͛v̶͎͆e̶̜̮̎ ̴̞͖̈́y̷̨̛͂o̶̢̎̈́ú̷̝̚!" It screamed trans morphing back to normal. Gumball looked seeing Darwin and Carrie standing on the steps.

"Darwin, Carrie!- wait where's-" Gumball then heard Shadow-Man yell in pain.

"Ow." He said as Anais brushed her shoulder off.

"Anais!" Gumball yelled hugging his sister.

"Yeah yeah, looks like you were-" Anais stopped seeing the sword and looking mesmerized, same with the fish and ghost.

"What, oh, did you see this?" Gumball said smugly.He then taunted by moving the sword slowly getting some oohs and ahhs from the other three, behind them Mania slowly crawled up.

"*Grr* You stupid "hero", I'll, I'll, I ' L L-" Mania was stopped by Gumball screaming by falling through a portal and screaming waking the fairy up.

"Mwe hee hee." The shadow said with a happy face holding a device.

"Gumball?" Penny asked as the portal closed and Darwin charged at the shadow.Just then another portal opened in front of the fish making the ghost and fairy grab him before they were all sucked in as well.

"Guys!" Anais yelled as she heard someone stepping on the grass behind her. "H-hello?" She asked seeing the cloaked Black-cat.He then drew his sword, which was a katana, and slashed the pink rabbit across her mid-section launching her to the minions, leaving a purple burn and having it crystalize slowly across her body, restricting her movements as the crystals spread across her body.As she tried moving her vision started to turn purple making her scream for help... before being completely crystalized.

"Good, good, well done you two." Mr. Black-cat said.

"Well thank ya sir, and it looks like those four have some fallin' to do." Shadow-man said as Mania Chuckled. The three villains then walked into another portal dragging the rabbit's crystalized body with them as a keepsake."Y'know I think she'll do nice with the rainbow buffoon, Shadow-man said twirling his candy cane.

"Hm, perhaps I could do that." Black-cat said.

--Devintette county, Michigan--

Phil, Smiley, Zack, and Fre- I mean Phred were all waling on the sidewalk chatting about their days.

"So Smiley I heard you got to level ten of Bonecrushers." Phil said.

"Yeah it's really hard, but I think I can beat it with determination." Smiley responded.

"You love that word huh?" Phred asked sarcastically.

"What determination?"

"Yeah"

"What it's just a word that I think describes me the best."

"So does obnoxious" Zack said hi-fiving Phred.

"H-hey no it doesn't!" Smiley yelled balling her fist.

"Yeah guys c'mon we're all friends here." Phil said trying to calm the tension.

"Alright sorry Smiles." Phred said as Zack nodded.

"Great now what to do today?" Phil asked as they heard a thud in the alleyway next to them.

"I guess check that out." Phred said. They all approached the alleyway and looked around at the scenery. They then heard rustling in the trash can nearby.

"Don't worry boys I got this." Smiley said. She then walked up to the trash and saw a pair of eyes staring at her, those eyes then became a trash covered monster. "He-ya!" She yelled kicking the monster's face in then doing more martial arts on him.

"Ow, gah, Stop it gosh darn i t!" The monster yelled as trash flew off him showing he was a blue cat A.K.A Gumball Watterson.

"Uh, Smiley I don't think that's a monster." Zack said as Smiley slowed down her attacks then taking a good look at the cat.

"Oh, sorry." She said as Gumball cracked his back.

"Um, yeah what the what why did you toss me like I was a frozen bag with a skeleton inside." He said

"Uh, sorry again, so uh, what's your name?" Phil asked.

"Gumball, Gumball Watterson."

"I'm Phil, The girl's name is Smiley, the guy on fire is Zack, and Phred is the guy behind me."

"Well I guess it's okay to meet you Phil."

"Nice meeting you too Gumdrop."

"Gumdrop?"

"Yeah that's what you said right?"

"No I said it's Gumball Egghead."

"My last name's Eggtree dang it."

"You never said anything about a last name!" The other three looked as the two fought.

"You guys want popcorn?" Phred asked as Zack sighed.

--unknown location--

Darwin woke up seeing a purple sky with a castle nearby.

"Penny, Carrie where are you guys?" He asked. He then saw a man with green skin walking along and dragging his feet on the floor. "Excuse me sir have you seen two girls, one's a yellow Fairy shape shifting thing and the other's a beautiful ghost that's a goth." He said.

"Brains uuuurrrghh" The man said turning around.

"Brains uh, I don't know if ghost have brains or not but Penny does, maybe." Darwin said.

"Brainsssssss"

"Darwin look out!" Carrie yelled as she tackled him and a needle hit the man's eye.

"Urrrgggg"

"Darwin why were you talking to a zombie?" She asked.

"Wait he's a zombie?"

"Yes, he is."

"Oh, my bad I'm going to run away now." Darwin said as he got up and started running the other direction screaming as Carrie followed. Watching them was Doctor Edgar George Zomboss in his purple suave office. The doctor donned a while coat and an oversized noggin with a pink hue on the top as well as veins pulsating.

"Ah... what the H, E, double toothpicks are those things?" He asked looking through binoculars.

"Hello Doc." A voice from behind said. It was the masked fighter Z.

"Ah, I believe you were sent by Mr. Black-cat for the deal." Zomboss said.

"Yes, here's the proposition, you help us and in return you will have full control of a region of his reign and the brains of those who dare defy us." Z said holding a map of where Black-Cat would rule if the plan were to succeed.

"Hmm' so what counts as a region?"

"Anything that's a planet, on one, or near one." Z explained as Zomboss looked out the window. "That's not the real definition of a region but when you have a multi planetary empire it can get broad." Z added, Zomboss examined the disgusting green on the other side. He already has control of nearly anything what else, but of course that green bustling pimple on his grim view ruining it for him.

"Control of that chokepoint and the plant's side, yes, you have a deal." Zomboss said as two R.O.Bs rolled in to hand a contract.

"Please sign here, and here, and this bit here." Zomboss did all three and smiled tapping his fingers together as Z left for another mission.

 -Devinette County-

Gumball walked with the four kids as they saw a kid with a five on his tee shirt.

"Hey 5."

"Hey" 5 replied before Gumball laughed as 5 turned and noticed him.

"Ah, the Flozwad is that thing?" He asked in surprise.

"That's Gumdrop, he's a blue cat." Phil said.

"For the last time, MY. NAME. IS. GUMBALL!"

"Eh, same dif." Phred said.

"I've only been here for an hour and I hate it here already." Gumball said flatly. 5 then continued to walk down the street to get as far as possible.

"I'm surprised he didn't call animal control." Phred said.

"Is all you do wisecrack?" Gumball asked.

"Is all you do complain?" Phred responded.

"Sadly no, I also get targeted by robots and monsters that hate the cool sword I make with my mind like this." Gumball said before summoning the sword and swiping the air.

"Ta-da!" He yelled sarcastically.

"What" Phil started.

"In" Phred continued.

"The" Zack penultimated.

"Heck" Smiley finished.

"Did you guys just do an entire sentence with each other?" Gumball asked.

"Yeah, whatcha gonna do bout it." Smiley sarcastically said. Gumball then put his hand in the middle of Smiley's face making her face scrunch up.

"This, now shut up."

-Neighborvile-

Darwin and Carrie made it to a bustling green space with many plants that were moving around.

"Woah coool." Darwin said as he saw a sunflower wave at him opening the gates. He then saw Penny wave at them.

"Penny, what's all this?" Darwin asked.

"Welcome to the plant side you two!" She yelled.

"Huh, we should probably try finding Gumball, he could be around here somewhere." Darwin said as plants started rushing to the gate.

Penny then looked at Darwin and then at Carrie then grabbed their hands.

"I know but we should try finding a way out of here first." Penny said as rumbling started happening. Suddenly a cactus started making noises of panic before a weird green plant with a big mouth made some trumpet sounds. The three then looked down seeing A robot moving with elegance.

"Hello plant life, I come from Black-Cat Incorporated Industries with a message." It said.The plants all watched as zombies rose from the other side. "After a talk with Edgar, the zombies are willing to make peace, however you must surrender Crazetopher David's brains and three fugitives among you." It said.

"Pa, ha,ha haaa ha, you, *PFFT* could say that- th-they're-" A blue hedgehog started laughing

"Don't Sonic!" The robot yelled at the laughing hedgehog.

"AMONG US! Ah ha haha haaaaaa!" Sonic yelled dying of laughter.

"*Ugh*, Anyways do you accept our terms of truce, or will you perish under our armada!" The robot yelled. After he said it multiple objects from space appeared such as Robots and, well it was basically robots.

"Woah, there's more robots here than old two thousands movies with over the top edginess." Darwin said.

"Yeah and here I was thinking that zombies were the biggest threat." Carrie said as they heard skid marks.

"So these guys Rocky?" A cheeky voice asked. The three looked behind themselves. They saw that blue hedgehog with a brown rock plant.

"Oi, found those three, attack em'!" The hedgehog yelled. Suddenly multiple laser beams were fired at the trio and the hedgehog rushed at Darwin winding a punch while doing so. "Heh, prepare to die kid!" He yelled punching Darwin into the crowd.

"Uh-ohhh noo." Darwin said as he was surrounded. The robots surrounding the goldfish were cat-like with strange looking arms yet stood upright.

"Target spotted, skewer mode activated." They said as their arms streatched out with visible prod-like claws all coming at him. Darwin stared swiftly dodging in a comedic manner. He then saw a needle enter the eye of one causing a chain reaction by making one crash into another.

"Thanks, who ever that was." Darwin said as a pink aura surrounded him.

"Please, call me Rose." A literal rose with a wand said.

"Thanks Rose, could you get me back there?" Darwin asked pointing where sonic punched him off of.

"If you're worried about them, don't worry Solar and Shadow are most likely on it." Rose said. Meanwhile on the top the rock plant which was a Peashooter and Sonic the (not) Hedgehog were fighting against Carrie and Penny respectivly.

"Hey Rocky how about you take the ghost broad I've been tryin' for a while and I still can't hit er'!" Sonic said.

"I'm a ghost Pin-brain, I'm imposable to hit!" Carrie said before getting hit by some rock salt from the Peashooter.

"Nice one Rocky!" Sonic yelled as he homed in on the yellow fairy hitting her. "Aw yeah this is happening!" He yelled before he was hit by a large green object. Penny looked up seeing a peashooter in a purple cloak helping her up.

"Uh, thanks." The plant nodded as it looked at the rock plant, they both stared each other down before a flaming flower appeared behind the rock making it tremble.

-Black-cat Inc meeting room-

Black-cat and Shadow Man watched as the attack was commenced by Metal and was being quite successful before A was brought in.

"Ah A, come have a seat." Black-cat said patting the couch.

"Almond milk?" Shadow Man asked handing a cup to A.

"Oh, th-thank you." A said s taking a sip as he loved almond milk. Black-Cat stared the leader down as if he knew something he didn't.

"So A, Gumbot told me that two days ago, your Defense Blaster was in your mouth, care to elaborate?" Black-Cat asked.

"w-well sir I, I- I just can't take anymore, the death around me, the blood on my hands, I mean sir those robots just can't kill free speakers, we were a democracy and a damn good one at that, then you just roll in threatening us with an armada and say we must give steel and food to Niobron for androids, and even after surrendering you treat us like shit beneath your boot-"

"Because that's all you are yo me A!" Black-Cat retorted. He slowly walked up to the man. "You and your dirt people, that's what you pigs are, you think that I'm a monster for ruling over you that's your problem, and until you get it under control I might just kill all of them, hell I'll kill your men harvest their balls and make your women into breeders for the new world, then make it so that the children obey me and mine till' their hands bleed, do you want that A, you think that's beyond my power?" Black-cat screamed.

"N-no sir, I'm sorry I've just been stressed, please for- for- *Ack*" A was interrupted by a coughing fit before he started spazzing out.

"Sorry A, it was decided that everything I said, it'll happen and as for you, well let's just say cyanide is very good to hide in almond things such as milk." Black-Cat said as A foamed in the mouth and his eyes became reddened through it.

"Wow b-boss, that's, that's a bit much don't you thi-"

"I'm sorry Shadow Man, was I speaking for your opinion, because as we speak the men over eighteen are having their testicles removed, and those women are being dragged in like pigs." Black-Cat said as he showed Shadow Man footage of women being dragged from their crying children. "B-boss, this is, a- uh, super... Something." Shadow Man said dumbfounded.

"*Ugh*, look we'll just check on Zomboss' assault on the Plants then." Black-Cat said disappointed in his lackey.

"Okay boss"

 -Devinette County-

Z was spying on the blue cat, staring at him through a lens of infrared and listening to him speak about his travels with the other children, they were approaching a true trap prepared by Gumbot, a lethal one at that, Z was split on one hand it would let him retire, on the other, Gumball was A child and there were four other kids with him each of them looking to be at least ten, could he let it happen He pondered then decided against it preparing to fire a warning shot before he felt a hand on his shoulder.

"Just let it happen." Mania said tightening his grip. This did allow one thing though, his gun to be swapped with the built in Telemension.

"no"

"What was that?" Mania asked.

"No!" Z yelled firing the portal beneath Gumball and the green hooded child making them fall through as Gumbot flew at the other three making Z fire again at the three making them fall as well and making the robot brake.

"Damn it Z, your job was to report back to me!" Mania yelled furiously.

"You want to kill children for this, are you insane?" Z yelled back as he started deleting footage of the event.

-Neighborvile-

Metal watched as multiple robots flew to the sky and a Rock Peashooter was launched at him hitting his eye.

"*Gah* Fall back, Fall Back!" He yelled beconing zombies and robots alike.

"Oh, looks like I gotta juice it" Sonic said running to the crowd.

"Hey we won." Darwin said.

"Maybe the battle yes but the war, far from it." The Rose said as she looked at the retreat smiling a little at the fish who was hugged by the ghost.

"Well I guess Penny was a little right, we should at least help them with their problem." Darwin said. Carrie sighed at Darwin's willingness to help others but was with him all the way.

"Well what are we waiting for let's see some plants." Carrie said carrying the fish.

Chapter Text

--Unknown location--

Phil woke up, his brain banged against his skull painfully thumping.

"Ugh, Phred? Smiley? Zack?" He asked looking at all the squishy looking terrain. He also felt softer, his hoodie was woollier, his skin wasn't as rough and itchy as it was an hour ago. "Huh, neat. Gumball you there?" He asked realizing that he almost forgot about the blue cat.

"Over here!" He heard Gumball yell. Phil wandered to the voice seeing Gumball stuck in a tree making the one in the green hoodie giggle.

"What's so funny?"

"Well, your a cat stuck, in a tree, am I getting through to you?" Phil said with some sass. Examining Gumball he was flufflier

"Oh, well help me out her-woah!" Gumball yelled as he fell out of it making Phil laugh even harder.

"Wow you're a real upstanding guy aren't you?" Gumball asked sarcastically.

"What can I say I love comedy." The two continued bickering before hearing something.

Next to them a small pink creature went "Puyo?" Making them look at it.

"Oh, hey little guy, what are you doing here?" Gumball asked putting his hand where he assumed Phil's mouth was.

"Puyo." It said pointing at an apple tree with one of it's nubbins.

"Oh an apple is what you want eh? I can get it for you." Gumball said drawing his claws and jumping at a tree, however once he got on he heard a sound of pain exiting the tree.

"Oi, watch where you're climbing ya hooligan!" It yelled making the cat jump down in shock.

"What the what!" He yelled as Phil just laughed.

"Wow for a big head it must feel light doesn't it." Phil said.

"For no mouth it must be bigger than a billionaire's ego." Gumball retorted as the pink creature ate an apple off the ground.

"Puyo!" The creature yelled coming between the two and offering apples. Gumball and Phil looked at each other, nodded and decided to eat some apples with the pink thing.

"Hey what's your name?" Phil asked the pink creature."

"Kirby, Kirby." Kirby said excited.

"Huh, strangely a normal name for a little creature like that." Phil said. Meanwhile a little painter named Adeline and a smaller fairy named Ribbon were painting out in some grassy fields near Whispy's Woods making a beautiful painting of the scenery.

"Hey Ribbon could you get some berries from a bush down there?" Adeline asked as she finished painting some trees.

"Sure Ado." Ribbon said before flying off into the woods looking for said berries. As she looked around she felt a strange aura, a dark one, yet it wasn't Dark Matter that she felt it was something more independent, something that wasn't pure evil yet evil nonetheless. She finally found some berries and was ready to get the heck out of there before feeling heat behind her.

"Hello little fairy." A masked one said, it was clear he wasn't from Dreamland or that forgotten place Kirby went to a few months ago.

"H-hello" She said meekly trembling at his tall cloaked figure and the mask was all the more frightening.

"I'm looking for two folks who fell in here, a blue cat, and a boy, you wouldn't mind helping me would you?" He asked circling around the small fairy. Just then Adaline charged towards him flailing her brush frantically, but he just sidestepped to the left and tripped her. "Hmm, I think that was an attack or at least the attempt at one." He said as Ribbon rushed to her friend's aid. "Don't worry I know a good way to heal someone." The masked one said reaching into his cloak and pushing the fairy out of the way. "Don't worry young painter, this will only hurt a bit." He said drawing a purple flamed sword. In a moment he slashed the artist in the back leaving a purple glow in the area where she was slashed making her scream out in pain as her skin started cracking up leaving a grey stone like substance started to spread out. Adaline still screaming tried to get up as purple crystals started growing like tumors from the slash on her back, Ribbon watched in horror at Adaline and stone she was becoming.

"W-what's happening to her?" Ribbon asked shakily. The masked one then grabbed her by her wings and began to force her eyes open to watch the suffering of the painter.

"Oh it's simple really, my sword has just began to slowly and painfully reap her organic material, and soon she'll be nothing but gravel held thinly together by crystals replacing her skeleton causing a painful feel as some of those crystals Peirce her flesh causing an intensive and extensive feeling of pain. After all that her eyes become crystalized and yet she doesn't die, instead she's left as her soul is filled with agony and will continue to be until she's either free or broken apart." He explained as Adaline's face began to freeze causing her last expression to be one of a mixture of shock, pain, and hopelessness. "Poor thing, now about those two I wanted you to find and locate, put this tracker on the blue cat, then I'll change your friend back." He said putting a small red glowing device in Ribbon's hands. Before Ribbon could say anything he was gone without warning.

"H-hello?" She asked as her voice echoed.

-Neighborvile-

Darwin, Carrie, and Penny all clanked their cups together then took a sip of the drinks that the plants provided, they were surprisingly tasty, having a fruity taste. Rose then hovered to the three.

"So if I may ask, who or more so what are you?" She asked.

"Well I'm Darwin and I'm a fish who grew lungs and legs from the power of brotherly love." Darwin said placing his drink down.

"I'm Penny and I'm a, uh, fairy who came out from her coconut like prison!" Penny said as she noticed that a Coconut Cannon glared at her.

"I'm Carrie, I'm a ghost." Carrie said flatly before blowing up her hair.

"Ah, well Darwin, Penny, Carrie it's nice to meet you and I hope you enjoy your stay." Rose said bowing.

As she floated away she ran into Nightcap who was leaning against a tree with his cap covering his eyes.

"There you are, I was worried about you and Citron." Rose said relived.

"Well I'm fine thanks, I also caught a little thing that Dave would be interested in." He said tossing a device to her.

Said device was circular with a green button in the middle of it.

"What is this?" She said mystified as she rotated it around.

"That's the thing, I don't know, nor does Citron, we found it off a robot that we're having Wall-knight dissect as we speak."

"Well that's good, anything else?" Rose said.

"Yeah actually, I'm curious about the three... Things you're letting stay here, why would you do that?" Nightcap asked looking at the flower with a look of suspicion.

"Well I wasn't going to let him be eaten plus Major Sweetie insisted." Rose explained.

"Ugh, you mean the psychopathic sunflower who loves the talk of sunshine and unicorns burning and impaling zombies." Nightcap said disgusted with it.

"Look she's at the same rank as us, just let it be okay." Rose said as she looked down in dissatisfaction. The shrooms was gone. "Nightcap?" She asked out looking for him.

--Nevadian Desert--

"Is she okay?" Smiley heard from someone.

"M-mom?" She asked dazed and aching, slowly opening her eyes seeing a blurry red and white lady.

"Mom!" She heard from the lady with red hair yell. Smiley looked at the lady with red hair and noticed that she was a literal stick figure. Smiley shot up.

"S-sorry ma'am I was just dizzy and thought you sounded like my mom!" She yelled in embarrassment.

"Kid kid, your fine I was just caught off guard." The lady said putting her hand on Smiley's shoulder. "Now that that's over with, what's your name kid?"

"I'm Smiley, Smiley Sundae." Smiley said holding her hand out.

"Ellie, Ellie Rose." Ellie said shaking hands with the orange shirted girl making her shake.

"Say, you didn't see two boys, one of them on fire and the other having a dull colored shirt?" Smiley asked looking around the desert.

"Oh yeah, come on kid." Ellie said leading her into a white tent where Phred and Zack were sitting with two other stickmen, one with a set of red headphones and the other just having nothing on besides shoes.

"That's Henry, the guy with the brown shoes, the one in the headphones is Charles and the guys next to them I'm guessing are your friends right?" Ellie asked as Smiley ran towards the other guys.

"Phred, Zack!" She yelled in excitement.

"Oh hey Smiley." Phred said flatly.

"Great to see you alive and well." Zack said giving a thumbs up.

"Now if I'm not prodding too hard, how'd you kids get here?" Charles asked pointing a finger gun at the three.

"We" Smiley started.

"Have" Phred contributed.

"No" Zack went on expecting Phil to finish the sentence.

...

"No what?" Ellie asked as Henry looked at them funny.

"Dang it Phil was supposed to say idea, where is-" Smiley cut herself off remembering what happened, Phil and Gumball fell into a hole then they fell through one as well. "Oh my goodness, Phil and Gumball, we have to find them!" Smiley yelled.

"Who are Phil and Gumball?" Charles asked.

"Friends that we have to help get home." Smiley said heroically. Zack nodded in agreement and looked at Phred who was asleep.

"Really my guy?" Zack said flatly.

"Eh, what?" Phred asked, he was barely awake. Ellie then went to another room and grabbed a black drink.

"Coffee?" She asked as she handed it to Phred.

"Sure" Phred said before chugging it down.His face then lit up like their teacher's did and before anyone knew it he was gone and came back in a supersonic fashion.

"What the heck!" Smiley yelled.

"Phred reporting for duty!" Phred yelled doing a salute.

"Huh, I guess coffee hypes up his energy." Zack said.

"Well duh." Smiley retorted.

"Friends, I think I know what happened, someone, or something is trying to kill Gumball and Phil, and us as well, it's by sheer luck we've met fine fellows who are possibly the good guys of this universe." Phred explained. Smiley and Zack's faces looked surprised as they looked in awe.

"Phred were you always this smart?" Smiley asked still in a surprised state.

"I think coffee while also hyping my energy enhances my brain power as well." Phred said.

"Alright if you're smart is water wet?" Zack asked.

"Yes and no, you see water molecules most likely touch each other meaning that while not always wet water can be." Phred explained.

"Alright I got nothing, look is there anyway to get out of here?" Zack asked.

"Possibly, but I may need to study it." Phred said. "Ms. Rose and Mr. Stickmin may I perhaps have a white board please?"

"Uh sure I guess, right Henry?" Ellie said. Henry nodded and gave a thumbs up.Charles then looked at the kids.

"Soo uhh, what should we get to know about you guys?" He asked.

"Well we did stop an alien organization that attempted to freeze the earth, twice." Smiley said.

"Yeah the first time was with me and the second one was with I think astroids." Zack said.

"Comets more likely." Phred said correcting Zack.

"Great so we know you like correcting people too." Zack said annoyed.

"Well that's cool, Henry, Ellie, and I took out a group called the Toppat clan a few weeks ago actually." Charles said.

"Actually, I think Phil did most of the work." Smiley said embarrassed.

"Yeah actually I guess that's right." Zack said also looking down.

"I have no argument there." Phred said. Ellie and Henry then came back with the white board Phred asked for.

-Dreamland, Popstar--

Kirby was leading the boys to Dedede castle which had an angry face on it.

"Uh, this place doesn't look too friendly." Gumball said.

"Yeah for the first time I agree with you on that one." Phil said.

"Poyo Poyo!" Kirby yelled jumping as the draw bridge dropped.

"Oh hey Kirby!" Kirby's friend Bandana Dee said he was a little brown creature without a mouth but welding a spear and wearing a blue bandana.

"Poyo!" Kirby yelled giving a hug to Bandana Dee.

"Uh hello." Gumball said waving at Bandana Dee.

"Oh, hi there, what are you guys' names?" Bandana Dee asked.

"I'm Phil and that's Gumball." Phil said introducing him and the blue cat to the Dee.

"Wait Kirby, we should get them to meet the king!" Bandana Dee yelled in excitement.

"King?" Phil asked.

"Yep King Dedede, the ruler of Dreamland." Bandana Dee said in inspiration.

"C'mon you really got to meet him!" Bandana Dee yelled.

"Well we're really just trying to-" Phil was cut off by Kirby who grabbed him and Gumball and ran into the castle with them. Inside was a lot of fancy things, red carpet, paintings of classy things, and even stained glass windows. "Wow, that's pretty cool honestly." Phil said as the four made it to the throne room. In said throne room there were a bunch of Dees with spears along with an orb-like creature and a man sized snail.

"Meta Knight, Escargoon these guys want to meet the king!" Bandana Dee yelled out.

"Eh, what are you saying Bandana Dee?" The guy on the throne that was facing away from the four.

"Well sire, two uh... Things wish to see you." Escargoon said. The throne then rotated to face them, and the king was also facing them. Said king was a rotund blue penguin with Royal robes and a red hat with a white puff on the top. And a mallet on his lap or lack thereof for he only had feet.

"Well, bow down to me!" The king said in a menacing tone. The cat and boy instantly got to their knees and bowed down, before hearing laughter. They looked up to see the king laughing at them.

"Hey wait a minute, were you pranking us" Gumball asked glaring at the king.

"Heh heh heh, yeah and you should've seen your faces." The king said with a southern accent.

"Honestly I actually felt fear." Phil said also chuckling.

"I'm sorry but the moment was too good to pass out on, anyways I'm King Dedede." Dedede said shaking hands with the two.

"I'm Gumball and the mouthless green hooded smart alek is Phil egghead."

"It's Eggtree Gumdrop."  Phil retorted. The two then glared at each other. Then they just started hurling insults at each other. The other four just stood there before a masked blueberry snuck inbetween them.

"I suggest you both stop, by now you're about to cause a scene in the castle and I would have to slice both of you down." The knight knight said drawing his sword. It was a gold hue and had multiple spikes on its sides. Gumball and Phil backed away from each other and the knight. "Good, good, now if you will, I must speak to you about something that you know." The knight said pointing his sword at Gumball before leading him to another room with a strange darkness to it. Gumball looked at the knight and his yellow eyes before seeing that they were in a dojo of sorts. "I suppose to introduce myself, I am MetaKnight, and I shall train you..." MetaKnight said. Gumball summoned his sword making MetaKnight look as if some suspicions of his were corrected.

-Black-cat Inc-

Mr. Black-Cat and Shadow Man were both watching the rewind with Zomboss in the room.

"Your robots were durable but I must say the loss was quite that, a loss." Zomboss said.

"Well you can't win all of them Zomboss, we just need some more... Fire power, literally." Black-Cat said as his mask shined brightly.

"Boss, what should we do with the Rock Peashooter?" Shadow Man asked.

"Funny to mention that, I guess you should meet the new and improved Rocky." Black-Cat said as the door opened and said Rocky walked in.

"Nice to meet you sir." Rocky said with a British accent holding his pod to the shadow.

"How is he, well talking?" Shadow Man asked.

"Simple really, I had the medical R.O.B machines surgically give him a voice box." Black-Cat said.

"Ahh, surgery, intuitive I must admit." Zomboss said.

"Yes Doctor, I also must say that I've always had a bone to pick with the people who've enslaved my kind and let them die and just replace us like Cannon fodder." Rocky said looking at the scientist.

"Now then you three, I have a way to get back at the plants, simply use fire and burn it all down." Black-Cat said.

"Wow boss your plans are always the way to go, but what about the fire plants?" Shadow Man asked.

"Simply kill them manually, i.e shoot, cut, or whatever you can to kill them." Black-Cat said.

"Oh boss, you always have a plan for everything don't ya?" Shadow Man asked.

"Yes I do, in fact I even know when to attack, and I had the R.O.B machines build a new Zombot for you, I do believe it does have some upgrades, like a jetpack, wings, machine guns and things like that." Black-Cat said. "And no it's not your pellet stuff, actual guns that shred through walls."

"Wowee boss you really know what you're doing." Shadow Man said.

"Why of course, we collect steel and gunpowder why wouldn't we make guns, we're a manufacturing company using slave labor." Black-Cat said taking a sip of wine. "Now go on and burn that green scourge down and give Zomboss his end of the deal." He said making Shadow Man salute Him. Zomboss, Rocky, and Shadow Man all went back to the Zombie side of the city and started forming a plan.

"Alright so Rocky turns off the plant's alarm system, then I use my secret power of transparency to get myself through the walls and start a fire and allow me to assassinate the fire plants, finally Zomboss gets his army for an assault and uses the Zombot to destroy the fugitives, got that?" Shadow Man asked. The two nodded in affirmative manners. "Good, I shall now laugh... Evilly, Mwee hee hee." Shadow Man laughed.

"Rra ha ha ha" Zomboss laughed with him.

Rocky then made trumpet noises with them.

-Crazy Dave's backyard-

Darwin was bummed out after a while of partying knowing that Gumball could be in danger, and what about Mr. Dad and Mrs. Mom they're probably worried sick.

"Carrie, I'm not sure if we should stay for much longer." Darwin said. Carrie noticed that his head was hanging down.

"Darwin what's wrong?" She asked putting her hand on his "shoulder"

"I miss them, Gumball, Anais, Mr. Dad and Mrs. Mom all of them." He said with a tear in his eye.

"Look we're going to find Gumball, then find out what's up with those thunder jerks, and then we'll get back home alright." Carrie said as Darwin sniffled and nod. Nightcap had been watching the exchange between the two foreigners and was intrigued by what they were talking about. He then noticed that a Peashooter was off duty and decided to follow it and track it down. Moments later he found out that he was in the computer room and heard two cacti scream.

"Mother fungus." Nightcap whispered to himself. He then kicked the door down and saw the Rock Peashooter that betrayed the plants shooting the systems. "Traitorous shrub." Nightcap said throw some exploding mushrooms at the Rock. It was a direct hit and the Rock was down. "Why'd you betray us?" Nightcap said standing on the shooter's stem.

"Ugh, don't you know how we're treated, we're like Cannon fodder to the humans and for what, so they don't get eaten?" The Rock Peashooter said.

"You can speak?" Nightcap said in confusion.

"Yes and with an accent no less." Rocky said before slapping the mushroom across the face and shooting the system's main reactor. "Too Aloo" Rocky said before shooting Nightcap and running. Meanwhile Penny noticed a black spot from the corner of her eye and then saw a flame, she turned around and it was gone. Then she saw it again and again when she turned around it was gone. This went on for about three minutes before the shadow stayed there.

"Aw screw it." The shadow said before tossing the flame into the bushes. This lit the fire up in the plant's base and it started to spread, yet no alarm was made.

"Uh, there's a fire over here!" Penny yelled out. Luckily an Ice Pea, an Ice Cactus, and a Yeti Chomper all started shooting the fire as a Frost Rose came to examine.

"Thank you for alerting us dear, this would have been-" She stopped making Penny look, yet the Frost Rose was gone. Suddenly two burning holes were in the Yeti Chomper as it went limp, then a laser assault was hitting the ice plants and making more fire in the corner.

"Oh no." Penny said before yelling fire and attack while running around the base. This alerted Darwin and Carrie who ran to Penny.

"What's going on?" Carrie asked.

"There's an attack going on." Penny said panicked before becoming a mouse. Meanwhile Zomboss was looking through a telescope and laughing.

"Yes, yes the attack goes well, Zombies start attacking, and use everything you got." Zomboss said on the intercom. Super Brains then landed on the center of the base of zombies gathering.

"You heard him, let's go!" Super Brains yelled flying upwards and lasering some weeds. The zombies started rushing the plants and began a herbicidal rampage eating, lasering, and burning plants. Super Brains landed in the plant base and immediately punched a weed while looking into a mirror. "Dang I look good." He said smoothing his hair out.

"Well if it isn't the most ironic out of your group." Nightcap said staring down the zombie hero.

"I'm a very smartie thank you." Super Brains said before a glowing pea hit him.

"Yeah, maybe Brainstorm should teach you some grammar." She said joking.

"Well well Penelopea A.K.A Green Shadow, I must say that out of all the heroes of your team, I despise you the most." Super Brains said dodging shrooms from Nightcap.

"Wow we must have a special connection." She said dodging a punch from the zombie.

"Yes, a connection of nemesises."

"Nemeses" Green Shadow corrected him. As heroes fought the Zombot was booting up and was almost ready to destroy.

"Can this load any faster?" Zomboss asked annoyed.

"How good is your internet?" Shadow Man asked tapping a tablet. "Op, it's at ninety nine percent that's good." Shadow Man said as the eyes of the Zombot started to gleam. "Yes!" Shadow Man said pumping his fist. The Zombot began stomping around the middle yard and started raining bullets down on the plants having casualties on both sides. "Wow Rocky, behold the robot that's disobeying every law of the Geneva Convention." Shadow Man said.

"The what convention?" Rocky asked before seeing the rampage and the death of zombies. "That idiot's hitting us as well though, is that not wise." Rocky said. As the bullets rained down roses were making time fields and imps made gravity fields. Darwin and Penny hunkered down shielding themselves from the hell that was above them.

"Penny I just want you to know that if you and Gumball marry, I'm in full support and if I die make sure he's not sad forever." He said crying. Universes away Gumball felt something, it was Darwin, he was sad or frightened or maybe both and more. Metaknight noticed this.

"What's wrong?" Metaknight asked.

"My brother gosh darn it I wish he had something to defend himself with." Gumball said, after he said it something happened. His words echoed in the fish's heart. During the battle of plants and zombies the ground shook making everything stop and from the ground a heave of something broke the crust and went to the burrowed fish's hand or fin or whatever you want to call it. After grabbing it he held it up with awe. Suddenly a woman's voice went to his head.

"Darwin, you may not know me, but you should know that you have been chosen to help your brother save this world and perfect it." The female voice said. Darwin pointed at the Zombot and smirked.

"I'm on my way Gumball." Darwin said with a smile and raised eyebrow.

Chapter Text

Darwin stared down the Zombot.

"You!" Darwin yelled. The Zombot tilted it's head as Zomboss spoke from the microphone.

"Me?" He said.

"Yeah you, what other giant mechanical thing would I talk to?" Darwin retorted.

"Well I- nevermind, what is it you fishy fishy fishy boy?" Zomboss yelled.

"I'm taking you down." Darwin said with a feeling of being epic in his voice.

"Rrra ha ha, so you think some little tool can topple me, with bullets and such weaponry that not even the melonest of Winter Melons can slow me down!" Zomboss yelled getting heat seeking missiles ready. Shadow Man and Rocky then realized, Fish are cold-blooded.

"No wai-" Shadow Man screamed.
"Don't do-" Rocky yelled. Zomboss didn't stop though, he slammed the button and the missiles fired, yet they all just kept flying only targeting fire plants and zombies. "Wow great plan, did you come up with it on the spot or something?" Rocky said sarcastically.

"Jeez I'm sorry that I tried using the weapons your boss gave me." Zomboss yelled.

"You work with dead things I thought you'd know this kind of stuff!" Rocky continued. Zomboss then cut the communication. "Zombies, no matter what they're brainless." Rocky told himself. Meanwhile Darwin smiled.

'I'm on my way' he thought.He then began charging at the Zombot hammer in his "hands"

-Nevada-

"And now we see the adventures of Stick Stickemups, the boss with a tude of rude!" The TV said as a cartoon played.

"So it's a Saturday morning cartoon show, with Italian stereotyping." Zack said as the titular character fired a Tommy Gun.

"Eh probably an older cartoon, probably from the eighties or seventies, like The Godfather or good fellas." Phred said.

"*Ugh* why couldn't we have a fifth member of the group?" Smiley said as she was frowning at the TV. As the three bickered in the tent Ellie watched and smiled.

"Kids." She said to herself as Henry and Charles were analyzing the white board Phred wrote on.

"Jeez the kid really figured out interdimensional travel in an hour, that's hecka impressive." Charles said as Henry pulled a device out. It was a little remote like thing with three green buttons, one red button in the middle, and an antenna. Ellie then looked at the prison puzzled. Why were they just at a prison in the middle of a desert in West Mesa?

"Charles, why are we here?" She asked.

"Well the general wanted to make sure that the quote on quote OG Toppat leaders don't escape. So that's why we're here." Charles explained as Henry nodded.

"Escape, those guys are armed twenty four seven." Ellie said laughing.

"Well we got a tip that someone would break them out." Charles said before taking out a sniper rifle that so conveniently had night vision. He was watching before seeing a non-stick figure. "Huh, that guy looks pretty weird, I'm going to report that." Charles said before seeing the non-stick figure looking straight at him. Charles then slowly grabbed his walkie talkie and tried calling the General. It was garbage noise. "General, General are you there?" Charles asked before hitting the device. Suddenly the TV went static.

"Hey who turned out the signal?" Phred asked.Ellie then rushed to the other side of the tent.

"You three stay put, got it?" Ellie asked. Smiley nodded and gave a smile. Ellie then went back to the group and grabbed her stop sign. "Let's get this guy." She said.

-Neigborville-

Darwin was talking down bots and zombies left and right with the hammer he got, as he did it he hit the ground and sprung up and imagined himself in slowmo.

"Shit how is he doing that!" Shadow Man yelled as Rocky attempted to shoot him.

I- *ptoo* don't- *ptoo* know but- *ptoo* he's going down!" Rocky yelled while trying to shoot the fish.

"I think you're thinking of yourself" Nightcap said throwing down an explosive mushroom and hitting both Shadow Man and Rocky.

"Great either I'm high or something since I don't know how many things I have to fucking deal with." Shadow Man said calling for backup. Nightcap continued to pursue Rocky tossing mushrooms at him with some giving a good hit on him.

"Ah, bloody el, let's see how fr-fr- Fookin' good you can hit a return fire mate!" Rocky screamed firing a bunch of rocks at the mushroom. Nightcap then did parkor on the rocks and threw another mushroom in the direction of Rocky. Rocky closed his eyes in anticipation of the explosion, it came early, but he wasn't dead there was more so a robot with a monitor spinning on his finger.

"Time to steal the show Boys." Metal said as Mega began his backwards long jump and Sonic the (imposter) hedgehog ran towards the fish and the chicken followed.

"Who are you grassheads?" Nightcap asked.

"Well shroomy, we're the workers of Black-Cat industrial incorporated, and you're going on a pizza when I'm through with you!" Metal yelled throwing a monitor at Nightcap who swiftly dodged it and threw back mushrooms. Metal chuckled holding a monitor to shield the blow. "Heh, shouldn't have done that." Metal said shrugging. Nightcap then felt a sudden pain in his chest and kneeled down before Metal appeared before him in the fastest he'd seen.

"W-wh-a-at did you do-o-o?" Metal didn't answer, instead he kicked Nightcap into the burning wreck.

"Ha, what was I expecting from a drug?" Metal asked before three mushrooms flew over him. "What the?" He asked before getting kicked into the spot where said mushrooms would land. "How'd you -"

"You're fast I'll give you that, but you also have an ego." Metal then charged at Nightcap who swiftly jumped and threw more exploding shrooms.

"Is that ALL you do?" Metal asked annoyed with the mushrooms.

"No, but why would I tell you what else I can do instead of showing you?" Nightcap said before rushing Metal with kicks and punches in the face.

"How- are- you-" Metal grabbed the mushroom. "That fast?" He asked angrily.

Nightcap smiled. "How are you this blunt?" He asked before kicking Metal in the chest, Metal shook it off before looking down and seeing the explosive shrooms in his chest hole.

"Oh you're kidding me-"

-Nevada-

Ellie and Henry rode down to the prison on the motorcycle and stopped seeing the destruction of the entrance. The two nodded to each other and ran in seeing a masked man in a suit pointing a wrist gun to a guard.

"Where is the Toppat leader?" He asked coldly.

"I-i think he's in with the rest of the people in cells." The man who Henry recognized as Dave Panpa said in tears at the sight of the corpses of his comrades. The man just squinted before shooting at Henry and Ellie who he saw in the reflection of Panpa's eyes. Ellie and Henry dodged and Ellie ran at the man with her stop sign being swung at him. The sign had then been caught by the man, who then swung it, and by proxy Ellie, at Henry who decided to make some choices.

"Who are you?" Ellie groaned.

"I'm Z, and you two need to get out of my way before I break your spines in half. with my bear. Hands." Z said introducing himself to the stick figures.

"Wow, a letter for a name, how quirky, I'll smash your face in and rip that stupid mask off." Ellie said smiling preparing for the malevolence of her wrath. The two then charged at each other and started fighting, Ellie started off by hitting Z' face with the sign doing a small amount of damage before Z punched a hole in the middle of the sign and kicked her into the wall.

"Pathetic, I've faced ratlings tougher than you." Z said before getting punched by Henry who had done some adrenaline.

"Hey that actually worked." Ellie said picking herself up. Z then revitalized his balance and scoffed.

"Nice hit, but I need to get those leaders." Z said as Charles called on the walkie talkie.

"Henry Ellie? Are you guys there?" He asked in a panic.

"Charles, what's going on?" Ellie asked realizing that the kids were possibly in danger.

"Henry, you go for Z I'll go for the kids."

"Oh thank God, there's some kind of octopus in the tent, I need your assistance, they're not screaming but I don't think they're safe!" Charles yelled. In said tent Mania was laughing at the children.

"Well well, three little piggies all cowering in the tent." Mania said as his tentacles dragged on the floor. Smiley, Phred, and Zack just sat there silent. "What, no snarky comments, I'm not planning on killing you kids, yet, hohohohohoohaa, you should've seen your faces ah, but no seriously once Z is done, so are you." Mania said, his lower jaw opened showing rows of teeth. "Anything to say, maybe a sarcastic remark, or perhaps a pun, maybe even an *ahem* a wittle hewoic speech about helping our fwends." Mania said before laughing like a maniac.

"No, no I'm going to say that you don't scare me, I'm not going to let myself be afraid of some cross breed of a paint can, a hedgehog, and an octopus!" Smiley yelled putting her foot down. Mania looked at her and nabbed her by the legs and opened his maw showing groupings of eyeballs rotted as though he took them from corpses.

"Scared now?" Mania asked as the corpses started reaching out to the girl groaning and screaming. He then threw her back with the other two. "Any other things that you want to say?"

"Yeah actually, let em' go edgy the hedgy!" Ellie yelled holding a shotgun.

"Ooh this'll be fun, and you know what they say, FUN IS INFINITE!" Mania yelled maniacally.

-Neigborville-

Darwin was dodging eggs, lemons, and a hedgehog running after him.

"Heh, y'know I could go faster, but that would make it less fun." The not hedgehog said before balling up and homing in on the fish.

"Just let me hit the robot!" Darwin yelled bouncing himself up using the hammer before Mega had bumped into him out of nowhere.

"How did you-" Mega cut off Darwin by hitting him again, and again, and another one. It was about to be a fourth time but Luckily for the fish he was caught in a time field by Rose.

"What... The... Heck... Is... This?" Mega asked in slowmo.

"Time field child, Darwin go on and destroy that thing." Rose said shooting thorns at Mega who screamed in slowmo as well. Darwin kept running before the (not at all) hedgehog reappeared.

"Hey hey hey, looks like you can't keep running." Sonic said as zombies circled him before a pink chicken walked to him. "All right Stuart, natural selection." Sonic said. Stuart went to Darwin but whispered in his ear.

"It's me, Carrie, I have a plan, just follow my lead." She said.

"What is i-" Stuart then ate Darwin whole.

"St-Stuart! Boy what the hell, I wanted you to peck him to death not eat him alive like a snake like, Jeez, that's-that's, that's a mind fuck, I'm going to need to sit down I-" Sonic basically started to ramble. Then the chicken shot an egg into the sky then aimed it's rump at the army.

"Wait a minute, oh no, Shadow Man, Stuarts gone rouge!" Sonic yelled before Carrie through Stuart rapid fired eggs at the army of robots. The egg flew upwards and out came Darwin who was traumatized by what happened before getting grabbed by Penny in her dragon form.

"Penny, I think I'm going to need a lot of therapy back at Elmore." Darwin said trembling as Carrie flew up to them.

"Alright here's the plan, Penny you drop Darwin down on that robot and Darwin flattens him, how's that sound?" Penny nodded as Darwin shook egg gunk off himself.

"Yeah alright, but we're going to have to talk about that." Darwin said.

"After this, love you." Carrie said smirking.

"Ugh, I love you too." Darwin said smiling.

-West Mesa Prison-

Henry had made it to Z and threw a rock.

"Hmm, oh you, Stickmin if I'm correct, well I admire your craftiness, I'm afraid I'll have to be killing you." Z said activating his wrist guns and firing.

Henry immediately took cover and saw a grenade belt and a chair.

Chair           Grenade Belt

Chair

Henry ran towards Z with the chair and swung it as hard as possible but it broke after a single hit.

Z then immediately grabbed Henry's spine and snapped him in half.

Seems like you should've cherished your life, I'm sorry.

Retry

Grenade Belt

Henry started throwing grenades at Z making Z dodge a lot of times and then ran at Henry and jumped in front of him.

"I'll crush your face." Z said angered.

Henry then looked in his pocket.

Mercury           Sword

Stand        Kick

Mercury

Henry grabbed a bag of blue crystals.

"Really?" Z asked.

Henry nodded side to side.

Z just shot the fulminated Mercury making a giant explosion killing both of them.

You are not the guy, you aren't capable of being the guy they had one now they don't you are not the guy.

Retry

Sword

Henry drew his sword and tried stabbing Z who just caught it and held as sparks flew.

"Nice knife." He said before breaking it in half and driving it in Henry's head.

Must be making the mother of all omelets

Retry 

Kick

"Stickmin kick!" Henry yelled kicking a rock in Z's visor.

"God fu-" he yelled firing rapidly at Henry.

The instructions said to not hit the eyes.

Retry

Stand

Henry summoned Reference who was about to throw hands.

"JoJo isn't funny anymore." Z said flatly and aimed his gun at Henry. Reference then grabbed Z and threw him upwards before flashing behind the airborne assassin and meteor smashing him into Reginald's cell. Zthen remembered that the mission was to break out that guy.

"H-hello?" Reginald asked before Z portaled him into the space base. "Nnnnyyyyyoo-"

"Nani?" Reference asked.

"My mission was to break out the Toppat clan leaders, and it looks like I'm doing it." Z said before breaking the wall to the Right Hand Man's cell and portaling him out before going to the next and repeating it again before there weren't any left to portal back. "Well my work here is done" he contacted Mania "I'm done, do what you got to do you monster." Z said before portaling himself back.Meanwhile Ellie was panting and had ran out of ammo.

"Gosh darn it, can you just die?" Ellie yelled as blood dripped from her head.

"What's wrong Ellie, can't FUCKING swear when kids are nearby?" Mania said as the tentacles writhed and grew spikes.

"Leave them the hell alone!" Ellie yelled before a stray tentacle wrapped around her and picked her up.

"How about instead I tear these brats open, eat their organs and you watch their lives fade from their eyes?" Mania asked as his grip tightened.

"Mania I need backup, repeat I need backup!" Shadow Man yelled on an earpiece that Ellie couldn't see.

"W-what?" He asked before dropping Ellie and returning to his normal form of a Sonic lookalike.

"Well we've lost Metal and the boys and have lost sight of Darwin sooo."

"Are you kidding, fine, after I finish off the stick figures and the kids." Mania said before cutting off connection. "Now, where were we, oh yeah, THE PART WHERE I RIP THOSE BRATS TO SHREDS, HOHOHOHOHOHA!" Mania laughed grabbing Ellie again and preparing to gouge, decapitate, and whatever else his sick desires wanted before the TV turned on.

"Hiya kids, I'm Steve the kale." The cartoon peice of kale said

"And I'm Jesse Juice!" The cartoon juice box continued.

"What the hell is that show?" Mania asked, clearly confused by the cartoon.

"Hey maniac!" Smiley yelled.

"What?" Mania yelled off guard.

"How about a little game?"

"Hmm, and what kind of game were you thinking?" Mania asked intrigued.

"A distraction." Smiley said smirking.

"A wha-" Mania was interrupted by the feeling of salt burning his back. He began screeching in agony as Zack poured more onto him.

"Oh, looks like you lost, don't worry you still win a bunch of salt in the face." Phred said holding another bag of Salt. Suddenly Mania was portaled back to the space base and was immediately cleaned.

-Neigborville-

Darwin stood atop Penny's back and leaned forward reminding him of that one scene from that one game, he then decided to take the fall and dropped prepared to strike down the Zombot with his hammer. Zomboss was still shooting until he saw said fish falling towards him in the mecha.

"No you don't!" Zomboss yelled throwing his fist at Darwin who had hit it with the hammer. "Ha, prepare to die fishy!" He yelled as the fist shot out.

"Darwin it's me, the voice who gave you the hammer, fill it." She said.

"Uh, with what?" Darwin asked as he began flying off on the fist.

"Emotions, like anger!" She yelled once more. Darwin then thought about what could make him angry, but he couldn't.

"I can't, I'm not feeling it!" Darwin yelled.

"Try maybe, ugh I don't know just calm down and imagine the hammer being stronger!" The voice yelled. Darwin then did as the voice said and imagined the hammer being four times as big as it originally was, and low and behold it had worked the hammer was much bigger but not too heavy. Darwin then imagined it ten times it's size now and it worked again, and he still could carry it. Darwin then slammed the hammer on the fist causing it to avert it's original path and making it go towards Zomboss' face.

"W-what?" The zombie leader yelled. Darwin jumped as the fist had hit the Zombot in the midsection and made it stagger before making his hammer the size of the Zombot 's head and swung down. "Not so fast fish!" Zomboss yelled throwing a punch, however Darwin just bounced off it destroying the fist and slamming the hammer into the head knocking the Zombot into the mansion on the zombie's side. Zomboss was panicking about how much was destroyed on the inside of the manor and the Zombot. "No no noooo, my knick-knacks, my signed photo of Albert Einstein, My pop smarts, my insurance is going to kill me!" Zomboss screamed as the Zombot fired every gun, missile, and laser it had causing even more destruction.

"Fiddlesticks, curse you Darwin, I swear my boss will kill you then he'll kill your worthless brother like he did your sister!" Shadow Man yelled as the robots fell back with the zombies. As the last bots disappeared into portals Darwin fell down gracefully into the wreckage of both sides, corpses of plants and zombies were skewed across the no-man's-land of the battlefield, the plant base was ash and few lesser plants survived, the zombie's base was crushed in the middle by the Zombot and the space around it was charred by the missiles it fired.

"Holy, it's more burnt than a roast beef made by Mr. Dad." Darwin said as the hammer disappeared. He then heard plants cheering for him and the destruction of the zombies.

"Looks like we finally beat them, even with the destruction of our base Zomboss is gone!" Rose yelled as the plants began disassembling the Zombot.

"Hey, he's not here!" Nightcap yelled. Darwin and the others went to check the cockpit and you guessed it, Zomboss was nowhere to be found. The group of plants all just looked at each other and shrugged knowing that they once again won.

-Space-

"Shadowman, Mania, I can't believe you two failed it's- I can't even-" Black-Cat groaned. "It's imagining to see that two of my highest workers failed me in the most embarrassing ways possible?" He asked, slamming his fist on the desk.

"Well boss they did get to jump on me, those kids, and I was distracted y'know it just doesn't seem that fair that-"

"That what? That I congratulated Z for actually doing his damn job, Mania you are a petty bastard I can't believe you actually tried to smear him." Black-Cat said growing more and more angered.

"Oh wow the edgy mercenary gets more credit than your two highest workers what a surprise, wait not actually it's kind of a surprise, boss I can't believe this we're your highest workers, you gotta cut us some slack." Shadow Man pleaded.

"Despite you two being my highest workers, quote on quote, you failed to children, meek weasley children." Black-Cat said.

"Hey now what was with those quotes on quotes?" Mania asked. "We've been completely loyal to you for all your endeavors and this is the thanks we get?" Black-Cat thought about it, perhaps they were indeed just getting cocky from not having to fight these kinds of enemies.

"You know Mania maybe you are right, maybe I have been acting too harsh on you two, maybe we have been exempt from challenges to our regime, but now that changes, we have to be on high alert at all times now do you two understand me?" Black-Cat asked standing up.

"Yeah boss of course and with the Toppat clan we'll be unstoppable next time!" Mania yelled.

"Heck yeah boss will shake them out especially when blue cat gumbo tries to take us out we'll just *bam bop boopity boo bow* him to the floor!" Shadow Man added.

"Glad to see your enthusiasm and I think our little fairy friend finally placed that device, now we can commence our first plan of attack." Black-Cat said tapping his fingers together as the camera showed Gumball training with Meta Knight. "Soon, I'll have that sweet revenge." He thought.

Chapter Text

Black-Cat sat down on his desk and tapped his fingers while waiting for the other two. The door then opened with Zomboss walking in stomping.

"I can't believe you, you promised me so much and now look, my mansion, my zombies, it's all gone, because of you!" Zomboss yelled. Black-Cat just stood up and tapped his desk gently.

"Hmm, I guess I shouldn't have given you heat seeking missiles, if I knew you were stupid enough to fire them at a fucking fish, instead of the fire plants they were meant for, then the rain of bullets you threw at your own Men, *hmph*, because of me, you absolute imbecile of wasted potential, I built it, you wasted it, know the damn difference!" Black-Cat yelled slamming his desk. Zomboss was silent. "Do you, Fucking understand me, I am the boss, I gave you robots with lasers and a giant mech of your invention that may I add, had military grade weapons equivalent to an entire nation, know. your goddamn. place." Black-Cat said again grabbing Zomboss'collar and slapping him.

"Y-yes, sir."

"Good, now get back to work you second rate scientist." Black-Cat said. Zomboss then ran out as Shadow Man and Mania walked in, with the new hire... Ridley. "Ah, good to finally meet you Ridley." Black-Cat said taking another seat. The Dragon was quite large, despite his slender frame he towered over the others in the room.

"I am quite, honored, that you requested me to be here." Ridley said. The slender light purple dragon was surprised at the imperial leader of multiple planets was, short, big headed, and had a mask on. "What is it you require for me to do?" Ridley asked. Black-Cat then grabbed two photos and slid them on his desk to the dragon, one was a blue cat and the other one was a white boy with a green hoodie and a face like an incomplete bowling ball.

"Kill them, that's it, billion in whatever currency you use when you're done." Black-Cat said cutting to the chase.

"Alright then, consider them dead." Ridley smiled, one billion for two kids easy job.

-Airspace-

Charles was flying the copter towards the base in the jungle with Henry, Ellie, Dave, and the kids riding inside with them. Charles then felt a buzz in his pocket and saw an unknown number on his phone.

"Hello?"

"Give the phone to the yellow kid." A British voice said. Charles gave the phone to Ellie and directed her to Smiley.

"Ello Smiles, we got a little message for you and your mates." The brit said. The phone then had muffled screaming of adults coming from its speakers. "Mr. Sundae how long have you been without your precious wittle girl?" He asked.

"T-two days, two days you freakish alien!" Smiley's dad yelled.

"Call me a bloody alien one more time and I'll shoot a rock through your leg like the damn dog you are!" He yelled back. Smiley started to hyperventilate.

"W-who are you, and what are you doing with my parents?" Smiley asked.

"Call me Rocky, I'm with the spooky tentacle hog and that Z bloke." Rocky said. "Anyways, all I want is the damn brats, you can give 'em or I'll bludgeon their parents and drive them to slit their throats or somethin'" Rocky demanded. "Either way it's in your best interest to hand them over!" Rocky yelled. Ellie grabbed the device.

"Listen here you damn alien, or whatever the hell you are, if you lay a finger on them I'll use a pickaxe to mine out your brain." Ellie said.

"Y-yeah, I'm willing to die for my daughter you snake like-" Smiley's dad was cut off by an awful crunch noise making her mother scream in terror.

"I'm sorry about that ma'am, I'll make sure you'll die just as quick." Rocky said before another crunch stopped her screaming, the call disconnected after that. Smiley stood there, mortified that she heard her own parents die before her. She looked at Ellie and then at Phred and Zack, Ellie then spoke up.

"Kid, I-I'm sorry I-" Ellie was interrupted by Smiley hugging her tightly while sobbing. Soon after, Charles landed the helicopter and brought the kids to the general.

"Charlie, Ellie, and of course Henry, how'd the scouting mission go?" Galeforce, the general with a longish beard with a cap reinforcing the role asked seemingly happy to see them.

"Well sir, we have a problem" Charles said nervously.

-Castle Dedede-

Gumball got up from the ground wheezing heavily, he'd only been here for about a few hours and already hated it.

"Go on Watterson, swing your blade at me once more." Meta Knight said drawing his sword and pointing it at Gumball. Gumball ran at Meta Knight and swung at the knight, however he dodged and kicked him in the shins.

"Gah, why do you always aim for the shins!" Gumball yelled.

"To teach the guard technique, or in simple terms, guard your shins, and your legs in general!" Meta Knight said rapidly punching Gumball's shins. Gumball continued to move his feet to attempt avoiding the gauntlets of Meta Knight to no avail. Phil watched as the chaos unfolded before seeing that fairy, Bandana Dee referred to her as Ribbon, flying in the corner of his eye, so he went to introduce himself, however he noticed she was moving suspiciously. He followed her around the darker hallways of the castle and saw a portal open with a purple dragon stepping out of it. Phil hid immediately at the sight of the dragon.

"A-are you someone working with h-him?" Ribbon asked stuttering.

"Depends, did you get that device on the cat?" Ridley asked back.

"Y-yeah, it's on him, and you can take him down." Ribbon said.

"Good, then yeah you can have your friend back, my employer is at the watermelon fields." Ridley said grinning as Phil tried sneaking away. He then ran towards the cat and the borb.

"Gumball *huff* you're being hunted, big dragon, tracking device." Phil said huffing and puffing while out of breath.

"Hmm, I see, Gumball prepare yourself for battle, Phil you get his majesty and Kirby." Meta Knight ordered.

"Already on it sir Meta Knight!" Bandana Dee yelled panicky.

"Oh, then Phil, you go get Blade and Sword here." Meta Knight ordered. Phil ran calling for the two other knights. Gumball stood still and summoned his sword to fight the dragon. He and MetaKnight stood there in anticipation of the dragons attack. There was a sudden noise making Gumball turn to nothing as silence echoed through the hall. Gumball then felt a pokey tap on his shoulder. He turned immediately and saw the dragon.

"Boo." The dragon said quietly before almost skewering Gumball in the head only missing by a small margin, surprising considering his head size. "So you're this Gumball Watterson kid I've heard about right?" Ridley asked holding Meta Knight in his hand.

"Yeah, yeah I am." Gumball said shivering. The dragon laughed.

"This is one of the kids I have to kill, look at you, your form's a mess, your stature is crooked, and you're scared as hell." Ridley laughed before throwing the struggling Knight into a wall. Then he stood up straight and raised his tail to skewer the cat.

-Government base, Congle Jungle-

Smiley had sat herself down and started looking up at the sky.

"Mom, Dad, I'm sorry you guys had to get into this mess." She said keeping her head down before Zack sat down next to her.

"Hey Smiles, I, I'm sorry about what happened to them." Zack said hugging her. Phred watched and was intrigued by the possibility of a love triangle, but had a feeling like he needed some coffee. As he walked around the camp something caught his eye, a strange brown blur ran past him.

'probably nothing." He thought before chugging the coffee down. He then felt the world slow down as his heart began pumping at an alarming rate for him. Once he settled down he saw the brown blur, except it wasn't a blur, it looked more like a rock with alien features, however, Phred figured that it was prepared to kill him, and if the looks didn't sell it, the British accent did.

-Castle Dedede-

Gumball held his sword preparing to block as the dragon's tail winded up like a punch, but sharp.

"Beam attack!" A Waddle Doo yelled firing a beam from its eye.

"W-what?" Ridley said as it missed.

"Oh golly I missed, let me try again. Beam attack!" Ridley looked at the Doo in disappointment and contempt. "This one will get him. Beam Atta- ack" Ridley skewered it straight through the eye before it exploded into a puff of air.

"There, that's done, now you..." Ridley saw that Gumball was already away. "Die" Ridley said angered by the blue cat having ran away into the castle. "*Ugh* damn cats, guess I'll be causing a Massacre of royal proportions." Ridley said putting his finger on his sharp chin with a cunning expression.

"Oi Beasty, if you want to clobber a cat it's us you'll have to go through!" A knight with a gold sword, green armor with a visor, and an English accent yelled, he was standing next to another knight who also had green armor but wore a helmet with a featureless pink face and had white gloves coming from the shoulder pads.

"Oh that's just great, look I'm usually all into massacring but I'm just wanting my billion units." Ridley replied annoyed with the knights.

"Well all you'll be getting is our swords taking you out for what you did to Meta Knight." The shoulder padded one said with a thick cockney accent. Meanwhile Gumball was helping Meta knight walk through the castle.

"Jeez I didn't know that, a guy like you, could be this heavy, no offense." Gumball said before stopping at the kitchen and seeing King Dedede and Bandana Dee there as well.

"Hey Meta Knight, what in the Sam hill's goin' on?" The king asked before Sword knight was thrown into the kitchen followed by Blade Knight.

"Big... Dragon." Sword knight muttered before Ridley burst into the room and dragged Sword Knight across the wall before throwing him into the other knight.

"Hey quit wreckin' my castle before I wreck you!" The king yelled gripping his hammer.

"Really, what are you going to do whack-a-mole me?" Ridley asked before getting hit by the mallet across the face.

"Anything else coming from that big mouth of your's?" Dedede asked. The dragon didn't respond with words, instead he fired a fireball from his mouth at the king making the latter recoil.

"Okay fire, that's- that's manageable." Dedede said before swinging his hammer again. The dragon then grabbed it by the handle and kicked the king in the face knocking him into a wall.

"Now that that's done and over with, I'm going to make your last moments of life as painful and as tormentuos as physically possible." Ridley said snarling as his tongue licked his not lips at the thought of bloodshed entertained him.

"Gumball take this!" Phil yelled out holding a glowing rainbow lollipop. He then threw it at Gumball who caught it in his mouth and immediately crunched it.

"What, what the fuck!" Ridley yelled before Gumball started glowing light blue and began laughing. He split his sword by the handle making the sharp edges into spiked spheres, so they basically formed maces, along with the weapons armor spontaneously formed upon him. "Why are you laughing?" Ridley yelled before getting hit by one of the maces in the ribs.

"You wanna play rough then it's on like a jackass and a gorilla!" Gumball said erratically. His armor was grey with gold stripes and a helmet with a visor and a fin on the top.

"Why you little- Gah!" Ridley yelled as he got hit in the shin by the armored cat. The cat was fast and furious, hitting the dragon multiple times with the world's physics keeping his bones unbroken. Ridley then flew back, grabbed Phil and flew outside.

"Aw I was having fun!" Gumball yelled before running after them.

-Government base-

Phred snuck around behind the Yokel accented rock monster with a huge mouth before seeing him with Mania and a masked man.

"So we're going to be breaking all communications with them and those CCC blokes right?" Rocky asked the masked man.

"The boys are on that, I've mapped out the central electrical unit and all exit points, the Toppats don't plan for any prisoners either, this is eradication of them all." The masked man replied.

"Ooh, my favorite, can I kill the kid who salted me?" Mania asked with a hint of anger showing. Phred stepped back a small margin away before stepping on a branch making a crunch noise and making him cringe. The three looked in his direction suspiciously making Phred duck down a little bit.

"Must've been a squirrel." The masked man said.

"A squirrel? Really, I think we're being watched." Mania said.

"I mean, I think it might've crunched on a nut." Rocky said as Mania looked at him with a face of pure questioning.

"Ugh, fine, but if they find us out I'm putting blame on you two for not being more perceptive." Mania said crossing his arms. Phred snuck away back to the others and began running to the general about the three guys he saw.

"Smiley, Zack, we have to get to the others about this!" Phred yelled running and grabbing the two.

"Phred what's going on?" Smiley asked slightly still teared up.

"We're in a dangerous situation between life and death within an uncertain amount of minutes." Phred said fancily as Zack rolled his eyes.

"So we're about to die?" Zack asked.

"Not if I can help it." Someone said, it was the masked man who stopped them.

"Oh, we're funked." Phred said.

"Don't worry I'm not going to kill you, I don't kill kids, instead I'm going to make sure you three die by the hedgehog." Z said as Mania slithered to them and laughed.

"Where's that bag of salt for you three now?" Mania asked manically.

"Oi, so that's the kid whose parents I killed, bloody hell, I thought she'd look tougher, and she's been giving you rubbish mate?" Rocky asked Mania whilst absolutely gobsmacked.

"Look, they got lucky with some salt and took me out alright, that's a huge weakness of mine." Mania said before noticing the kids stepping away.

"Hey don't think I can't see you three, Z, incapacitate them if they step out of line, don't care how just do it!" Mania yelled. Just then a bullet passed through the hedgehog making a small hole on his chest. "Huh, I got shot, who did that?" Mania asked casually before seeing a trembling stickman soldier. "Huh, I guess it's time for a snack." Mania said smirking. Meanwhile in a tent the Triple Threat watched as Galeforce and Rupert looked at each other and sighed.

"How'd the CCC not tell us, multiversal problems, that makes us screwed." Galeforce said as a soldier screamed out of sight.

"The heck?" Rupert Price said. They ran to see a mass of tentacles and teeth devouring a stickman in a manner of grotesque noises, sounds of groans and moaning mixed with the screaming of the soldier and the crunching of his bones.

"Jeez-le Pete's, is that the octopus you talked about Charlie."

"Yes sir!" Charles yelled.

"Oi, we've been spotted chaps!" Rocky yelled before Galeforce shot at him and one bullet bounced off his head. "Hah, you're going to need more firepower than that mate." Rocky said before shooting a rock at Galeforce barley missing his foot. Suddenly more units ran at the trio of villainy.

"Hmph, Rocky call the attack early." Z said, Rocky nodded. Rocky jumped and shot out three chunks of white phosphorus each one exploding. After the third one an airship revealed itself, it looked exactly like the first one but was black, and much larger than the first.

"*Ahem* Reginald Copperbottom here, please surrender immediately or we will destroy you all with our arsenal." Reginald said from the airship.

"What the hell?" Galeforce asked before Ellie and Henry sprayed salt all over Mania's body. He let out a scream of anguish and pain before returning to his normal form.

"Sark dammit! I was enjoying my meal assholes!" Mania yelled as the kids got to Ellie and Henry. As the groups looked at each other hell was raised on the camp lasers and bombs fired from the Black Airship destroying multiple tents and killing more than ten at a time.

"So," Z grappled to a cliffside and dragged Henry with him. "Round two?" He asked. Henry nodded and was handed a sword by Z. "Good, let's do it fair." Z said before Henry grabbed the sword. They pointed their blades at each other and bowed.

-Dedede Castle-

Ridley had flown to the top of the castle and carried Phil with him as both payment and bait.

"Uh, Mr Dragon, I think we can arrange an uh, not death related deal?" Phil asked. Ridley chuckled.

"What, are you afraid of death, of course someone who stopped planetary destruction would be afraid of that." Ridley said grinning as Phil's eyes widened.

"Fool!" Someone yelled before Ridley was slashed across the face making him drop Phil and landing on a tower surrounded by Sword and Blade Knight and waddle dees and doos.

"Beam em' mates!" Sword knight yelled.

"Alright everyone," Waddle Doo said unsheathing his tiny sword.

"BEAM ATTACK!" The group of Waddle Doos yelled electrocuting Ridley who roared in pain before dashing at Phil.

"Fool" the voice yelled again and slashed his wing making him fly down and hit a wall.

"God, dammit." He said before Gumball jumped up and bonked his head. "You again?" Ridley yelled before getting maced, literally, each hit went harder and harder forcing him to use the device that Black-Cat gave him to escape. The portal opened and Ridley flew in, however something caught his tail making him stop. "What!" He yelled seeing Gumball holding on his tail.

"Bon voyage Barney." Gumball said before the portal closed separating the sharp edge of the dragon's tail and the dragon himself. Gumball fell back while holding the tail of the dragon to his chest.He soon transformed back to his regular self and began huffing and puffing in drowsiness.

"That was a very good display of skills Gumball." Meta Knight said while walking up to the tired blue cat and helping him up. Gumball got up and walked up to Phil.

"You owe me one Egghead" he said poking Phil's chest.

"Alright you got me there, Gumdrop." Phil said teasing. Meanwhile Black-Cat walked up to Ribbon with R.O.B machines towing Adaline behind him.

"So you want your friend back don't you?" He asked.

"Y-yeah you promised that you would, right?" Ribbon asked nervously.

"Of course I'm-" Black-Cat's phone dinged showing a picture of Ridley who was damaged. "A cat of my word." He said gripping his phone. He then slashed Ribbon's face.

"W-why would you do-"

"You set me up didn't you?" Black-Cat asked looking down at the slowly crystalizing fairy. However he saw a lone pink ball. "You go warn the king that my armada will come, and burn this planet to the absolute ground and leave nothing." Black-Cat said to the puffball, who Ribbon knew.

"K-Kirby r-r-run." She said. Kirby then ran to the castle to warn everyone. Ribbon looked at Adaline whispering "I'm sorry friend." Softly before her crystalization finished.

-Government base- 

Z and Henry fought on the cliff with Henry using all of his options at his disposal yet Z wouldn't and couldn't give up while on ground Ellie was fighting off Mania with a bag of salt.

"God. Damn. It. Stand. Still!" Ellie yelled swinging the bag as Mania dodged each swing.

"Ho ho ho, keep trying stick, you'll be tired eventually." Mania said grinning. Rocky was having his own battle with Charles and the kids.

"Oi slow down you bloody buggers." Rocky said shooting at them with his rocks. Charles shot Rocky a few times with little effect. "Just let me kill em' mate and I'll ask that Toppats bloke to torture you the least." Rocky said before cornering the group.

"Torture? What do you mean?" Charles asked.

"You think that the Toppats want to let you and those blokes scot free, ha, no mate, they want to take you and bring unimaginable pain." Rocky said before a bullet hit him and made him stumble and drop something. Phred picked it up and accidentally pressed a button on the middle opening a portal. Charles saw it and immediately thought of an idea

"Kids jump in and don't look back!" Charles yelled. Smiley, Phred, and Zack all jumped in and the portal closed. Rocky saw this and growled.

"Oi now you're gonna pay for-"

"Hey alien, shut up or I'll blow your brain out." Galeforce said placing a shotgun at the back of his head. Rocky slowly raised his pods in response.

"Alright General, I'm really thankful that you-" Charlie was then interrupted by a gunshot and the general falling over, revealing the Right Hand Man.

"'ello, Rocky the boss wants to cut it short, grab the boy and take him up there, aight?" The Right Hand Man asked. Rocky nodded and put Charles in a headlock with his pods. He watched as the corpse of the general grew further. He, Ellie, and Henry were all brought up to the Black Airship and greeted by Reginald Copperbottom.

"mm, Yes welcome to your new home, well what'll be outside your new home." He said stroking his mustache. "But first I might as well demonstrate the power before we move on. Behold the true power of the Black Airship!" Reginald yelled pressing a button that made the ship fire missiles and lasers before launching a warhead from the top. The Triple Threat watched in horror as it exploded in a fiery blaze leaving nothing in the wake.

 -Space-

Black-Cat saw Mania and Shadow Man enter his office.

"Wassup Boss, we got some wins, right Mania." Shadow Man said.

"Yep, that military base, boom, nuclear fire, and those kids, in That dimension, with that looney toon." Mania said.

"And the CCC were a bunch of pussies, we took the tech, how's that sound Boss?" Shadow Man asked. Black-Cat was silent and tapping his desk.

"Um, we got the prisoners the Toppats wanted so they're on our side now." Mania said. Black-Cat was still silent and tapping his desk even faster.

"Is something wrong Boss?" Shadow Man asked. Mania then realized that Ridley was unsuccessful in the attack and sunk a small amount in his chair. "Mania what's... Wrong." Shadow Man asked slowly realizing that Ridley wasn't successful. "Um, don't worry Boss, we'll get them next time." Shadow Man said optimistically.

"I know, because I'll destroy every breathing thing on that sickly cute planet." Black-Cat said clutching his fist. "When the empire is done it will be as though it was another desolate rock!" He yelled before stabbing a katana in his desk. It was serious now.

Chapter Text

Kirby ran inside the castle and ran to Escargoon.

"Poyo, poyo!" Kirby yelled.

"What is it you pink pestering blob!" Escargoon yelled.

Dedede ran in with Meta Knight, the other two knights, and Gumball and Phil in tow.

"What is it Kirby?" Dedede asked concerned.

Kirby then demonstrated how he saw Ribbon get crystalized.

"Jimmy fell down the well?" Dedede asked.

"An ogre is going to rescue the King's bride?" Meta Knight asked afterwards. Kirby shook relaying negative to the questions.

"Po-yo poyo poyo poyo." Kirby said making the motions, he then gathered two waddle dees and made them look like ribbon and Adaline. He then made himself look like Mr. Black-Cat and "slashed" the waddle dees and made them freeze up.

"Some guy froze Adaline and Ribbon?" Bandana Dee asked.

"Poyo!" Kirby said and nodded yes to. He then grabbed a paper star and a match and lit both on fire.

"Someone's trying to destroy Popstar?" Sword knight asked.

"Poyo poyo!" Kirby yelled before  jumping in joy.

"I, don't think, that's something to be uh, happy about." Gumball said.

"Po... Yo." Kirby said.

"We need to make sure we aren't de-de- destroyed." Dedede said punching his palm.

"I'll get the Jambastion mages." Meta Knight said before disappearing away.

"Kirby, you and Bandana Dee get Gooey, we need the smartest person in Dreamland for this." Dedede said. "Gumball, Phil, you two get Susie and Taranza while Escargoon and I evacuate cappy town."

-Black-Cat Space Base-

Black-Cat stood with Reginald in the Captains deck of the Black Airship.

"So, illustrious seating, pure titanium shell, and a weapon system capable of destroying a major city, how is it?" Black-Cat asked.

"I do say it's quite the improvement, bigger yes, but overall I do believe that I could love this." Reginald said.

"I do need you to use it again though, once the warhead is placed on of course." Black-Cat said. "Also you saw those plastic things that look like they need to be dropped right?"

"Oh, yes those, what are they for?" Reginald asked.

"Dropping down robots, and maybe people with parachutes." Black-Cat responded. "Anyways I need you and the rest of the Toppats to attack a star shaped planet called Popstar, and burn the town on it to the ground until it's all ash." Black-Cat said.

"Why of course, it's the least we can do." Reginald said.

"Hm, thank you, y'know you are one polite leader, compared to my last collaborator." Black-Cat said.

"Hm, must've been a disloyal bastard, did I just say that?" Reginald asked.

"Oh yeah, I should tell you that some universes have filtering that once you travel a universe or two it doesn't really continue." Black-Cat explained.

"Hm, alright, that's going to take some getting used to." Reginald said.

"Trust me it's a fast learning process, just say whatever you want."

-Whispy's Woods-

Kirby and Bandana Dee were wandering through Whispy Woods and playing around a bit.

"Kirby, I feel, well, useless." Bandana Dee said.

"Poyo."

"Yeah I know, but I just feel like I barely contribute."

"Poyo poyo poyo."

"Thanks Kirby, you're really great to talk to, I guess that's why people like you." Bandana Dee said while balancing on a log.

"Poyo." Kirby said hugging his shy friend.

"Oi Kirby, what're you up to?" An Australian voice who the duo recognized as Rick asked.

"Rick, we're looking for Gooey have you seen him?" Bandana Dee asked.

"Yeah mate, he's eating apples with Coo and Kine, and everyone else." Rick said before leading the duo to the goo-ball.

-Space-

"Wakey wakey dragon." Mania said as Ridley woke up.

"W-what happened?" Ridley asked while rubbing his head.

"Well you lost your tail knife, bad news is its lost, good news we gave you a bit of an upgrade, take a look." Shadow Man said. Ridley's tail knife was now like another hand, three finger-like things attached to the prosthetic. "See it has many more functions, think like a swiss army knife, but even more options." Shadow Man said.

"Anyways you also have a second chance to kill those two, with backup as well." Mania said. Ridley looked at them, he then remembered the humiliation.

"Alright I'll help out." Ridley said.

"Great, great news!" Shadow Man yelled.

"We'll lay waste to the worthless planet." Mania said.

"The Boys are scouting the area as we speak." Shadow Man said before checking his watch, only a few hours before the attack will happen.

-Dreamland-

Gumball and Phil walked up to an observatory that had a shed next to it.

"I'll go in the shed." Gumball said before seeing the cobwebs and immediately turning back. "On second thought I call the observatory." He said.

"Flozwad." Phil said before huffing and walking into the shed as Gumball entered the observatory. In the shed Phil saw an open book with multiple drawings of an insect-type creature.

"Hey who are you!" A spidery thing with six arms and a stinger yelled swinging a broom at the kid.

"Gah, I'm sorry, The King sent me!" Phil yelled.

"Oh, Dedede wants me, well I'm sorry." The spider said, dropping the broom and holding out his hand. "Taranza, but people call me, well Taranza, what is it that his highness requires of me?" Taranza asked.

"Well someone is threatening to destroy Dreamland." Phil said shaking Taranza's hand.

"Goodness that's bad, I'll get to the castle immediately!" Taranza yelled floating fastly towards the castle path.

"Cool, my friend is in the observatory getting who I presume is Susie." Phil said. Gumball was in there and called for Susie.

"Hello, is there anyone named Susie in here, King Dedede requests of you." Gumball said.

"Oh that blubbering lard mouth." A sadistic voice said behind Gumball. Gumball immediately looked back and saw an armless jester of sorts.

"Uh, yeah I guess." Gumball said. "Are you Susie?" Gumball asked.

"Ha, haha, Hahahahahaha!" The jester laughed, cutely at first but it slowly became maniacal as Gumball awkwardly laughed with him. "No!" The jester yelled. "I'm Marx!" Marx introduced himself.

"Mark?" Gumball asked.

"Marx." Marx corrected him.

"Like Karl Marx?"

"Yeah, whoever that is." Marx said.

"Okay then, do you know where I can find Susie?" Gumball asked.

"Upstairs PAL!" Marx said bringing his face up to Gumball's.

"Thanks." Gumball said before moving up and getting to where Susie was. Up there he saw a girl with pink hair and in a white suit but only having hands and no arms. "Uh are you Susi-"

"Freeze Ma-" Susie pulled a gun and pointed it at him but stopped after noticing that's not who she wanted to shoot at."Oh, excuse my readiness to terminate you, I was expecting someone else." Susie said showing her face, it was strangely like Phil's, but extremely feminine.

"I'm Gumball, Gumball Watterson." Gumball said stiffly holding his hand out.

"Susie, Susie Haltman." Susie said shaking it. "What brings you here anyway?" Susie asked.

"The king, Dedede wants you for a meeting, see some wack job wants to burn Dreamland to the ground." Gumball said.

"Oh, I'll be there right away." Susie said grabbing her stuff.

"I'll get there first!" Marx yelled.

"Darn it!" Susie yelled grabbing her gun in preparation.

"Toodles!" Marx said before blowing a raspberry and flying out.

"Come on, we need to get to the castle." Susie said angrily. Outside they met Phil and Taranza.

"Alright let's head to the king." Phil said.

"Taranza?" Susie said. "The king wants you too?" She asked.

"Yep, I think this problem is something he needs all of us for." Taranza said.

"I see, well I think you and I will be a wonderful inclusion to saving Dreamland." Susie said. Meta Knight and the Meta Knights made it to Jambastion by Halberd, the fortress in space. As they landed in the base they were welcomed by the Jambelivers and several Jammerjabs.

"Welcome sir Meta Knight." A Jammerjab said Bowing down.

"Thank you, I wish to meet with the Mage sisters." Meta Knight said.

"Of course, follow me sir." The Jammerjab said. The knights wandered through the halls, the amount of Popstar denizens were astounding as what was once a crazy cult was now followed by many from Popstar as a religion of sorts, all striving for some form of paradise. He made it to the room where there was once a dark heart had now became a cathedral-like structure full of prayers from people all around the system. Meta and the other knights made it to Hyness and the mage sisters.

"Hyness, I see that your search for paradise is going well." Meta Knight said.

"Oh?" Hyness looked down to see Meta Knight. "Ah, Sir Meta Knight of Dreamland, what a pleasant surprise, what brings you here?" Hyness asked.

"Well Dreamland is in danger and I was sent to request the three mage sisters to assist us." Meta Knight said.

"I see, I shall have them assist, I must also request that we use Jambastion as a means of evacuation for the citizens. Meta Knight thought about it and thought it was a good idea, the less people on the planet that can be harmed the less risk there is of well innocent denizens being hurt.

"Alright we have a deal Hyness, thank you." Meta Knight said.

"The pleasure is all mine friend." Hyness said. Dedede was leading an evacuation party to the shores when the Halberd came in with the Jambastion following close behind.

"Meta Knight what's goin' on now?" Dedede asked.

"Well I have good news your highness, we have a place where the citizens may evacuate, Jambastion is not only willing to assist us in battle but provide our citizens a safe haven." Meta Knight explained.

"Well, that's actually a great ide-de-dea!" Dedede laughed.

"Great to hear sire." Meta Knight said as the mage sisters exited.

"Alright, get on everyone, we want you safe and sound." The red mage Flamburge said directing Cappies, Boronto Burts, and multiple animals onto the Jambastion. The blue one, known as Francisca was making sure they made it safe.That's when Marx flew in and laughed.

"Well well well well well, look at the circus, what is it this time, demons? Dragons? Un-aquainted horrors that no mind could even observe without seeing true madness!" Marx yelled maniacally.

"Oh can it you ball of jokes we're preparing for war here!" Escargoon yelled.

"Ah war, the deaths of many for a pointless cause, a classic." Marx said giggling.

"It's for the world!" Escargoon yelled.

"Pointless." Marx said teasingly.

"My kingdom." Dedede said.

"Also pointless." Marx jingled.

"The people who need our help to protect themselves." Meta Knight said.

"Wow that's, extremely pointless!" Marx yelled with amused eyebrows. "You three all believe in a fool's concept and ideas." Gumball and Phil with Taranza and Susie in tow then came up to them.

"Uh, we're here for the war." Phil said casually.

"Ah, Taranza, Susie welcome, as I hope these two explained, Dreamland is in danger from space psychos!" Dedede said.

"Yeah, and I think they want everyone dead based on the sound of it." Gumball said as Phil nodded.

"So with our powers combined we can stop them!" Phil said punching his palm. Metal watched as people were loaded in the huge ship.

"Pathetic." He thought. "How cowardly, how weak." Metal scanned the perimeter but scanned an unexpected surge of energy coming from the castle. He was instantly intrigued and scanned more of it, using some special visual modules, he found a strange gem was generating the power. He immediately sent images to Shadow Man and Rocky while chuckling to himself. "Interesting." He thought. Shadow Man and Rocky got the image back in the base and ran to Mr. Black-Cat who was examining images that Snapper Drones, surveillance drones meant for examining possible territory.

"Boss, Metal has made an important finding in the planet!" Shadow Man yelled, running into the office he stopped and showed the masked cat the image Metal had sent to him.

"What is it Shadow Man?" Black-Cat said intrigued.

"An energy rich gemstone, this could power up Doomsday to blow up a suburban neighborhood!" Shadow Man yelled enthusiastically.

"Huh, interesting indeed, during the attack I want it retrieved by any means you can." Black-Cat said.

"Yes sir, The Boys will gladly do that for you sir." Shadow Man said.

"Oi right then, I'll make sure to tell the other two and the chicken that mate." Rocky said.

"Excellent, oh and Rocky while you do that I must ask that you check in with the Toppats." Black-Cat said.

"On it mate." Rocky made it to the Black Airship and saw the imprisoned Triple Threat, Henry, Ellie, and Charles.

"Heh, those kids are probably dead mates, should've just handed them over and we wouldn't have had to kill you after this, but hey, the execution would look good right?" Rocky taunted.

"Burn in hell you traitorous bean sprout." Ellie said insultingly.

"How did you-"

"The tentacle monster told us." Charles said. Reginald then walked in.

"All right we're ready to take off, R.O.B machines, zombies, and those weird things are all loaded in the capsules, the warhead is also loaded up and ready for firing." Reginald said.

"Oi right then, I'll get Shadow Man, ol' Ridley and some of them Zombie heroes." Rocky said. Gumball, Phil, Dedede, Meta Knight, the Meta Knights, Susie, Taranza, The Mage sisters, and Marx all looked up in anticipation of the attack.

"So do we just stand here waiting for them?" Escargoon asked.

"I guess so." Gumball said. The blue mage sister, Fransisca, then spoke up.

"I think we should be somewhat prepared." She said pulling out her axe of ice. Suddenly a green wormhole opened in the sky. From it a black ship came out and began dropping silver bones along the town.The heroes and Marx all stood in preparation as multiple bones fell their way.

"What the..." Gumball said. The bones began shaking before moving to a forming skeleton. The skeleton formed and after forming, well it just looked like a skeleton before its head set itself on fire and it spat out a Fire ball at the group. Dedede inhaled it and spat it back hitting the flaming skeleton.

"Right back at ya!" Dedede yelled. The skeleton just looked at the king and shook itself making a rattling noise. "Heh, see that that's a sign of defeat!" Dedede said.

"Uh, I think it's more of a reinforcement call." Phil said.

"Why's that Philly?" Dedede asked.

"That." Gumball said pointing at the gang of skeletons all grouped together.

"Oh, everyone run!" Dedede yelled before running away with Escargoon in tow.

"Fran use your water gun!" Flamburge yelled. Fransisca immediately shot water at the group of skeletons who were getting repelled by the water.

"Haha" Gumball laughed as Phil cheered. However the cheer was cut short as Gumball disappeared. He found himself in the clutches of Ridley's new tail. "Hey, uh, we never exchanged names I don't think." Gumball said awkwardly. Ridley was silent. "Nice tail," Gumball said. "Sorry about that by the way, I was kinda hyped up." Ridley continued his silence and slammed the cat into a wall then pinning him with his foot.

"I'm going to amputate your tail and shove it into your carcass." He snarled. Gumball gulped in fear. That's when he heard the buzzing of a buzzsaw and realized that the tail prongs were now in the form of a buzzsaw slowly coming at his tail.

"Woah woah woah woah woah woah woah woah, heh heh, we don't have to cut anything off each other anymore, I think we still have your original tail somewhere." Gumball said trying to get free of the dragons claws. Ridley grinned in anticipation of the blood that would spill. Suddenly a sharp grey feather spun into his back making him screech in surprise before he saw an owl.

"Poyo!" He heard Kirby yell as multiple forest critters started attacking the skeletons. Ridley saw that Gumball was using his sword to climb the wall he was pinned to. He then got ready to fly before he tasted wood and was pulled back by Bandana Dee who held him by a spear.

"Not so fast you scoundrel!" Bandana Dee yelled as a Nruff head butted the dragon in the stomach.

"Grah!"

"Ha ha, Dreamland forever!" Bandana Dee yelled before getting thrown by an R.O.B machine. Gumball saw the chaos unfold before seeing one of the robots who sent him to Phil's world in the first place.

"That thing's dead." Gumball muttered. Phil was running from the skele-bots barely dodging the fireballs shot at him, however he found himself in a corner. Phil saw the fiery blazes of the robots approach rapidly. The group all prepared to set him up to a blaze, and Phil was ready to see what death would be like. However Both were stopped when lightning struck the one in front, disintegrating it, the striker of lightning was behind the group of skeletons. It was the yellow mage sister, Zan Partizanne. She looked at the group group and in a flash disassembled them all.

"Uh, thanks." Phil said looking in disbelief.

"Bonjam, it was no trouble anyways, your Phil correct?" She asked.

"Yeah, I'm Phil, Phil Eggtree." Phil said.

"Good." She handed him a gun. "Susie wanted you to have this." She said. It was a pink gun with a strange trigger.

"All right then, I'll put it to good use." He said cocking it and running for the king. That's when he was picked up by Kirby by the Warp Star.

"Poyo!" Kirby yelled joyously.

"Kirby, I-" Phil stopped himself by noticing the Black Airship. "We need to destroy that thing!" Phil said. Phil then noticed a blue blob and a cyan furry creature. "Uhh..."

"Hi, I'm Gooey!" Gooey yelled holding his tongue out.

"I'm Elfilin." Elfilin said looking like a happy little guy.

"Can you help me with that thing?" Phil asked.

"Of course." Gooey said.

"Alright then let's go!" Phil yelled holding on for dear life. Meanwhile Gumball had ran into the castle and ran to where Metal had entered in there.

"Stop right there!" He yelled as Metal grabbed the gem.

"Oh, it's you, I guess you're here to stop me." Metal said.

"I'm here to..." Gumball paused and thought about it. "I'm here to kill you."

"Wow, that's a pretty good dramatic line, but I would say that your abilities don't complement your words, however that's an understatement." Metal taunted making a shoo motion with his hands.

"I'm not being dramatic." Gumball said coldly.

"Oh I see, I take it then that you're being edgy as my brothers call it." The robot continued before nimbly dodging a sword slash. "Woah, you can't attack another gentleman while he trash ta-" Gumball bashed the blunt side on metal's head. "Ow, just because I'm a robot doesn't mean you can just hi-" Gumball struck again. "Gah, I feel like how your sister felt when the boss... crystalized... her." Metal said as Gumball's demeanor shifted from pissed to slowly becoming angrier. "Look I'm not the one who did it I promise you I-" Gumball screamed as a red aura surrounded him. Metal knew that at this moment, he knew... He fucked up. Phil arrived at the Black Airship blasting the cargo doors with the blaster and entering through a hole made by the shot. The four then were surrounded by Toppats.

"Ha, thought you could sneak on the airship didya?" A Toppat said, he had a fluffy hat and was holding an assault rifle of sorts.

"Kirby, do you know wha-" Kirby started inhaling air and got the gun becoming Ranger Kirby.

"Oh wow." Gooey said.

"Yeah, it's Ranger Kirby!" Elfilin cheered. Kirby aimed his pistols and shot all the guns from the Toppats hands.

"Poyo." Kirby said before tipping his hat at them.

"Reach for the skies." Phil said while pointing his pistol.

"Ha, you don't know how to shoot a pi-" The Toppat was cut off by a plasma bolt burning through his hat. The Toppats all got on their knees and put their hands behind their heads. They soon walked into the rest of the place and started searching for a place to strike. Ridley meanwhile was blowing fire down before seeing a lone running Dedede.

"Fool!" He heard that voice again, that borb. Ridley immediately flew downwards and grabbed Meta Knight and dragged him against the road, said road collided with his mask and produced sparks and caused fires to nearby housing. Ridley then pinned the knight and made his tail charge a laser. Meta Knight attempted to warp but saw that he couldn't reach his cape.

"Prepare to fry knight." Ridley said. Bandana Dee then landed on Ridley's head and made him stumble and miss the laser. Meta Knight took the chance to warp and slash Ridley's wings, this knocked Bandana Dee off of the dragon and land on the street. Metal had been fleeing the blue cat who was attacking him, he never expected him to be able to fight, let alone well.

"Sonic, I need a portal opened please!" Metal yelled before ducking a red axe that was thrown at him.

"Opening portal, over!" Sonic said as a rift opened to the space base. Metal flew at it but was caught by Gumball, his grip tightened to Metal's leg.

"I'll tear you limb by limb you gosh darn-" Gumball then noticed that something caught his tail, Z. Meanwhile Phil, Kirby, Gooey, and Elfilin all ran into the confines of the ship before Gooey stopped by three stickmen who were imprisoned.

"Phil, Kirby, look!" He yelled using his tounge to point at the prisoners.

"Oh my goodness, we need to help them." Elfilin said.

"On it!" Phil yelled before shooting the door and busting it open. The stickmen all stood up.

"Hey there, we're helping you escape." Gooey said with a goofy smile on.

"Well that's good, I'm Ellie, that's Henry, and next to him is Charles." Ellie said.

"Phil Eggtree." Phil said holding his hand out. Ellie spat on her's and shook Phil's hand fastly. "I think there's some parachutes in the hangar, the Toppats there are disarmed so there's no worries of getting shot." Phil said as the three ran out. "Alright now let's see what else we can find!" Phil yelled running into another room, then he ran back after getting shot at. "Nevermind we're heavily outnumbered." Phil said. He shot at the Toppats squinting to enhance his aim and accidentally hit a barrel causing an explosion knocking the Toppats into walls. "Reach for the skies." Phil said as he and Kirby made the Toppats stick their hands up. Then Phil had an idea. "If you tell us where we can destroy the ship we'll let you guys get out of here." Phil said.

"The core's in the next few rooms alright!" A clan member who had a green top hat with a red stripe with an emblem in the middle.

"How many?" Phil said pointing the gun at the member's head.

"Three, four, I don't know, less than ten at least!" He yelled in panic.

"Alright, now get out of here!" Phil yelled as the Toppats ran out of the room. Phil then sighed heavily, "I can't believe I actually said that." He said.

"You did great Phil!" Elfilin said cheering.

"Yeah, I thought you would've shot them all and become a cold blooded killer." Gooey said thrilled.

"Poyo!" Kirby said.

"Alright gang, let's beat them!" Phil said. Gumball was pulled in by the tail by Z and thrown to the floor and kicked backwards into a wall.

"God... Dammit." Gumball said angrily. He missed Z twice and was kicked out of the castle and to the curb.

"So you live, and once more, you are defeated by the hand of Black-Cat." Z said

"Black... Cat?" Gumball asked.

"Mr. Black-Cat, my boss, the guy who wants you dead." Z said.

"Did he-"

"Crystalize your sister, yes, she's alive but trapped, see it as a stasis for her, she's not aging or dying, just wi-"

"I get it you masked jerk." Gumball said slowly calming down and becoming his regular self again. Z's hand armor then activated a literal hand gun and pointed it at Gumball. Gumball then heard that voice again.

"He won't shoot you, it's against his programming."

"Programming, he's a robot?"

"Not literally, but his code is to not kill kids, so kill him." The voice said. Gumball immediately slashed Z's hand and slashed Z across the chest.

"Go on shoot me up dude." Gumball laughed. Z coughed and pointed his other hand at Gumball. Gumball then raised his sword but stopped. His empathy, something that most wouldn't let get in their way stopped him from slaying the masked man who then portaled himself away. Gumball sighed but then saw a strange device. A circular pad with a green button in the middle.

-Space-

Mr. Black-Cat was in his desk sipping some chai tea through a straw from his mask. Shadow Man then walked in.

"Ah, Shadow Man, I think you wanted to ask me something?" He asked.

"Well yeah boss, about Gumball, you uh, appear to have an, obsession if you will-"

"What do you mean by that?" Black-Cat asked.

"Well I was just thinking, we wouldn't really have to do any of this if we never intervened to begin with, then Z and the boys happened and now look quite our hands, three kids broke our entire operation, another three are somewhere in another dimension, and there's reportedly three trespassers and as many escapees in the black airship on our attack, meanwhile Z is in critical condition and lost his telemension and Metal barely escaped with the energy crystal!" Shadow Man yelled. Black-Cat sat there timid. "Boss sorry it's just that I care about Metal and-"

"Do you really think that if we left him alone he would have done nothing, that's the stupidest thing I've ever heard from you in a while, Gumball would've found the sword sooner or later and would try to stop me, I just didn't anticipate that your robots wouldn't do the job." Black-Cat said gripping his tea cup. Shadow Man stayed silent. "If you're so concerned about the cat kill him!" Black-Cat yelled as Shadow Man started running out of the office in a hurry.

-Black Airship-

Phil and company had finally made it to the core of the Black Airship.

"So, how do we destroy this thing?' Phil asked before he heard a click.

"I'll give ya a tip, don't." The Right Hand man said as he and soldier zombies pointed their own guns, with the right hand man having a chain gun.

"That's right I, Reginald Copperbottom had predicted your attack and have now intercepted it." Reginald soon began trailing off about stuff that the five didn't care to hear about, that's when Kirby saw a vending machine. He then walked slowly to the machine as Reginald trailed on and on and started consuming it.

"Uh, Reg?"

"Right Hand Man, what have I said about interrupting me by saying my name when something unimportant is happening?" Reginald said asking a rhetorical question.

"But the pink thing is eating the vending machine."

"What, hey stop that, that's very good soda!" Reginald yelled. Kirby continued wrapping his mouth around it. "That's not even how you get the soda out, what the hell are you doing?" Reginald asked before Kirby had all but the door of the vending machine in his mouth.

"What the bloody hell is up with the little bugger?" Right Hand Man asked.

"Hey don't look at me I'm just as confused as you guys are." Phil said. Kirby then began to spray soda cans like a machine gun and actually did damage to the zombies surrounding him.

"Right Hand Man, stop her-er-him-uh, just stop it!" Reginald yelled not knowing what to call Kirby based on color. Phil then shot Right Hand Man's gun and chuckled as he was pelted with soda cans.

"I thought that soft drinks were supposed to be, well, soft." Phil Joked. "I can't believe I said that." He replied to himself. Phil then started shooting at the core barely scraping the glass. "Shoot." He said trying to actually get the shot, he then saw a button on the side of the grip labeled "ricochet" which made him smile internally and press it. The next shot he fired began bouncing off the walls before hitting Right Hand Man's chain gun making him stagger and point it at the core when it had been fully revved up and was about to fire, once it began The Right Hand Man was blown back out of the airship but was saved via portal.

"Attention all Toppats, the core is heavily damaged, please evacuate the premises." The intercom said calmly, Reginald panicked and then saw his own red button.

"Well, I guess you brutes have left me no other choice, prepare for the Kingdom of Dreamland to be blown to Kingdom Come!" Reginald yelled pressing the button which launched a warhead out to the sky. Gumball was pondering the situation before seeing the Black Airship fire a huge missile from the top. He immediately thought of ways to get rid of it. He soon saw Meta Knight and the others asking the same question.

"If that thing hits us we're all dead!" Flamburge yelled.

"What if we disabled it?" Fransisca asked.

"If it hits the ground it'll still blow up." Meta Knight said.

"What if we blow it sky high?" Bandana Dee said.

"No good, the radiation it has will kill all the wildlife." Susie said. Phil with Kirby, Gooey, and Elfilin all came back to the ground.

"How do we take it down?" Coo asked worried. Gumball then looked at the pad and had an idea.

"What if we send it to hit somewhere else?" Gumball asked.

"How do we do that cat?" Escargoon asked. Phil then saw the device in Gumball's hand and smiled.

"I think I know how." Phil said. The boys and Kirby all rode the warp star to the warhead and followed it.

"Uh, vocal activation?" Gumball said.

"Activated, where do you want to go?" The device asked.

"Uhhh, somewhere desolate and lifeless, and unpopulated!" Gumball yelled.

"Okay, opening portal to the planet desilatia, the Black-Cat mining planet." The device said, Gumball then saw the demo portal from the projector.

"Uhh, how do we make it bigger?" Gumball asked.

"Turn the knob left to make it smaller and to the right to make it bigger" the device said. Gumball then turned the knob as far right as it could go and then pressed the button making a portal just big enough to fit the warhead right before it had hit the ground. Shadow Man and Rocky were using the computer to see the battle from the eyes of a destroyed R.O.B machine.

"So the warhead failed mate." Rocky said.

"Well it's probably not a humoungus deal." Shadow Man said as a blast came from the planet behind him. "Shit" he said scared of what the boss would do. As Gumball Phil and Kirby all landed everyone cheered for them except Marx who had done nothing since the attack happened. Then Bandana Dee called and pointed at the sky.

"Let go of the mighty king you dasterdly dragon!" Dedede yelled as Ridley carried him through a portal.

"Your majesty!" Escargoon yelled. Ridley had carried the king through the portal to be dealt with.

-Space- 

Mr. Black-Cat was meeting with Metal in the rebuilding chamber.

"The, ruby, where is it?" Black-Cat asked.

"M-my chest chamber." Metal said. Black-Cat reached inside and took it out, the ruby glistened, however it looked less like a ruby and more like a cartoony emerald, however it felt powerful.

"Wow, beautiful indeed, I love how it looks, and the power I feel just by touching it, I'll have Shadow Man examine it and I'll have the R.O.Bs repair and upgrade you, nothing extreme just an oil change and alloy upgrade."

"Thank you sir." Metal said.

"Boss! Boss!" Shadow Man yelled.

"Ah what is it Shadow Man?" Black-Cat asked.

"Desilatia, it was blown up, a warhead from the Black Airship went through the mines and hit the core!" Shadow Man yelled scared. Mania then slithered in.

"The Black Airship, it was destroyed by that Eggtree kid!" Mania yelled. Mr. Black-Cat glared them down.

"What?"

"Yeah the core was shot down!" Mania yelled.

"They're apparently saying the nuke was a last resort." Shadow Man said.

"Apparently the nuke flew through a portal and was sent to Desilatia." Mania continued. Black-Cat sighed.

"No bother, there's more Black Airships being produced by Bestoda it's a quick fix." Black-Cat said.

"Good news is that Ridley captured King Dedede and is holding him in the prisoner chamber." Shadow Man said. Black-Cat immediately looked up and cocked his head at them, "bring the king here." Not two minutes later Dedede was thrown into the office.

"Whatdoya want!" Dedede yelled at Black-Cat.

"I just need you to stand up." Black-Cat said. Dedede stood up and was immediately slashed in the belly. Black-Cat stood as Dedede was slowly crystalized and held up by R.O.Bs. Soon he was a statue of a king in a frightened pose. "Another for my collection." Black-Cat said smiling smugly.

-Dreamland-

Gumball and Phil began waving goodbye to their friends and stepped through the portal to a place called Albuquerque.

"Well Meta Knight, what now?" Bandana Dee asked.

"I- I don't know." Meta Knight said.

"Hey!" A woman's voice yelled. Meta Knight then saw three stick people.

"Who are you three?" Meta Knight asked.

"I'm Ellie, that's Henry, and that's Charles." Ellie and the other two slid down a cliffside and looked at the Halberd. "That yours?" She asked.

"Well yes, but what do you want to do."

"We were wronged by those guys too, we want to help with your kingnapping problem." Charles said. Meta Knight thought about it but then nodded.

"Blade, Sword, let them on the Halberd, Susie, you're in charge." Meta Knight said.

"Thank you Sir Meta Knight." Susie said. Onward, the six went out to space.

"So how're we getting to them?" Blade Knight asked.

"With this." Ellie said holding her own circular pad she stole off a Toppat. She then opened a portal and nodded at the knights. The Halberd entered the portal and flew through into the unknown world.

Chapter Text

-Neigborville-

Darwin, Carrie, and Penny were in a celebration with the plants after warding off the zombies and that Shadow Man guy.

"Well, we should probably get out of here." Darwin said before realizing that they had no way out.

"Wait how do we get out of here?" Penny asked. That's when an armored nut landed down with a telemension.

"Wall-knight!" Rose yelled in surprise.

"Ah, very good to see you all, I take it that there was a zombie attack?" Wall-Knight said looking at the destruction.

"Yes, however thanks to the efforts of these three visitors that was swiftly dealt with." Rose said gesturing towards the fish, ghost, and fairy thing.

"Well I suppose as a service of gratitude, I must give you this, a transdimensional transporter that will send you to where you need to be." Wall-Knight said. He handed them the device, without hands somehow. "The device is voice activated, just say where you need to go." He explained.

"Uh, send us to Gumball Watterson." Darwin said.

"Okay, taking you to Albuquerque New Mexico." The device said before opening a green wormhole.

"Thanks for helping us Wall-Knight." Darwin said.

"It's no trouble for me at all, now go and continue this adventure of yours!" He yelled. The three outsiders to the dimension all exited through the portal and into Albuquerque.

-Abandoned Location- 

Smiley, Phred, and Zack fell into a dust filled room.

"You guys okay?" Phred asked.

"Yeah, thankfully our skin didn't melt off." Zack joked.

"Smiley?" Phred asked. Smiley was silent. Zack patted her on the back before hugging her. Phred rolled his eyes and imagined how Phil would react.

"Sorry, we should start moving." Smiley Said. Phred held up the circlular pad and pressed the button again.

"Battery low, please connect to a charger for recharging."

"Uh, what kind of charger do you use?" Phred asked.

"Black-Cat Industries uses only the best chargers, please connect to a USB type-C."

"Huh, never thought that a device could connect to one of those, especially one this advanced." Phred said.

"Phred who are you talking to?" Smiley asked.

"Oh, the device that got us here, I think it might get us out of here." Phred said holding it up. "We just need to connect it to a type C." Phred continued.

"Really, I guess those things are the future." Zack said as Smiley smiled brighter.

"That could get us to Phil!" Smiley squealed.

"We still need to charge it, and I doubt anyone brought a type C from the government." Phred said.

"So current objective is find a phone charger, shouldn't be too hard." Zack said.

-Albuquerqe outskirts, New Mexico, 2009- 

Gumball and Phil had just begun walking into Albuquerque and we're on a desert cliffside. There they could see the outskirts of the city.

"Wow it's beautiful out here, it feels like Elmore." Gumball said.

"Maybe we're just at the city of Albuquerque, we can get to Elmore soon, what state is it in?" Phil asked.

"California."

"Huh, so only a few hundred miles." Phil said.

"Hey is it just me or do my feet feel drafty?" Gumball asked.

"What do you mean?"

"Like I... Don't feel the ground below me..." Gumball said as the duo looked down and saw that they were standing on air. The two then started falling before landing on a Pontiac Aztec. Inside the car was a man, someone whose car they would regret falling on.

-Albuquerqe 2003- 

Darwin, Carrie, and Penny were in some sort of office with walls having the constitution written on them and a desk in the middle surrounded by blue carpet.

"Wow, this place seems important like a government office." Darwin said before the door opened showing a man dressed up in a suit and tie with a comb over of true sleezebag material. The man and the group of three stared at each other. After about ten seconds they all screamed in terror with the man trying to run out but being grabbed by Darwin and Penny and then tied up by Carrie.

"Who the fuck are you people, no, what the fuck are you things?" He yelled.

"Well I'm Darwin, that's my girlfriend Carrie, and that's my brother's girlfriend Penny."

"What kinda stupid shit is going on, let me go you freak care bear rejects!" He continued yelling while struggling in the ropes.

"We should let him calm down then." Penny said. The three were disgusted by what they were around, a puppet that was made of meat with too much hair and other things that would be disgusting to anyone from Elmore.

"Actually what-" Darwin stopped himself. "What the h-heck are you?" Darwin asked.

"Hey ever seen a TV fishboy, I'm Saul Goodman!" Saul yelled.

-Abandoned Mall- 

Smiley and the gang roamed the abandoned mall, after a few long minutes Phred saw a pair of white beady eyes. He stared at them before they disappeared into the shadows.

"Phred, you alright?" Smiley asked

"Wha- yeah I just saw something weird." Phred said. Zack then screamed.

"Oh my God, an arcade parlor, the quarters we can get, c'mon!" Zack yelled. The three all went into the abandoned parlor.

"Zack how are we getting quarters from already looted or abandoned machines?" Smiley asked. Zack stared at Smiley and pulled a lockpick from his pocket.

"You have lockpicks?" Phred asked.

"My parents always lock the door and they never had enough money to get a third key, so I bought a lockpick." Zack said trying to open the machine. Zack finally got it open and quarters spilled out.

"Wow, that's something I wasn't expecting." Smiley said as Zack started picking up the quarters.

"Man, I don't think we can store them all." Phred said.

"Activating storage compartment." The device said.

"Huh, guess this thing's more handy than I thought." Phred said. They poured the quarters in the storage and closed it.

"Maybe we should find a place where we can actually buy a charger y'know?" Smiley asked.

"Fair enough, I don't want tetanus" Zack said wiping his hands off. Phred then saw those eyes again, yet they were closer, with the eyes he saw a smile before they disappeared.

"Yeah, let's get out of here." Phred said suspicious of the place.

-Albuquerqe 2009- 

Gumball and Phil had been holding on to the car for a while now but Gumball saw an opening, the trunk window. He drew his index finger's claw and slowly cut it open like a James bond movie. He finished right before Phil started sliding off, immediately he grabbed Phil.

"Use your lips!" Gumball yelled. Phil tried to but his lack of mouth didn't help, so instead he pushed in the window. The two got inside and started breathing heavily.

"You, owe me two now Phil." Gumball said.

"Not now Gumdrop." Phil replied. After a few minutes or hours, they lost track, the car stopped and was at a laundry mat. The boys watched this and saw the bald man who was driving here, strangely enough in the middle of the night. The two followed him into the mat and saw a confrontation with another bald man pointing a gun at the one who had brought them here. The two spied on the confrontation when they saw the bald man with a gun lower said gun.

-Albuquerqe 2003- 

Meta Knight and the others flew above a city.

"Huh, weird we're in the year 2003, did we time travel?" Charles asked.

"2003?" Meta Knight asked.

"Yeah, did we time travel from thirteen years ago?" Ellie asked.

"Hmm, I suppose it's based on what time it is in most dimensions." MetaKnight said before seeing a restaurant. "Hm, Los Pollos Hermanos, what could that mean?" Meta Knight said.

"Oh, that means the chicken brothers, must be a restaurant." Charles said. The ship landed in the parking lot and the three stick people and the Dreamlanders walked out among the humans in the area. The humans were all frightened by them as they walked in.

"Hello, I'd like a number four, two kids meals, a number three, and two number sixes." Meta Knight said as the cashier was shivering. The six then began to eat with Meta Knight not eating at all. As they ate the manager Gustavo Fring came up to them.

"Hello, I take it you're enjoying our restaurant's food?" He asked. Ellie swallowed the last of her chicken sandwich.

"Yeah, we needed a bite." She said before patting her... Stomach (?).

"Oi Blade, I got a toy!" Sword knight yelled in excitement.

"Hey me too!" Blade yelled. The two then began to to play with their toys giggling about it, Gus was confused about two full grown men playing with toys but then looked at MetaKnight.

"Well I was going to ask about your payment." Gus said.

"Ah yes, give me one minute Mister..." Meta Knight looked at his name tag, "Fring." Meta Knight grabbed a small sack from a hammer space of sorts. "Here you go" he said giving multiple star shaped coins.

"Um, excuse my asking but company policy says I have to ask for USD, American money." Gus said still smiling.

"Uh how much?" Ellie said.

"About twenty dollars for the sandwiches and six dollars for the kids meals." Ellie pulled out a twenty and a ten and handed them to him. "Ma'am are you trying to scam a local restaurant?" Gus asked.

"What, that money is as real as my hand!" Ellie yelled insulted. Henry then grunted and started grabbing something from his pocket. Everyone looked at him before he threw a smoke bomb at Gus and everyone started running. Gus sighed.

"Sir should I-"

"Yes call the officers, they'll deal with them, I have a meeting anyways." Gus said.

-Saul Goodman's offic- 

Darwin untied Saul Goodman while apologizing about the initial hostility.

"I'm really sorry Mister Goodman, I thought you were a monster.' Darwin said.

"Yeah ironically there's a ghost, a fairy, and a fish in my office, am I going insane?" Saul asked.

"Nope, but I can explain." Darwin said. Darwin told Saul the story of how he, Carrie, and Penny were transported from Elmore to Neighborville, and now to Albuquerque.

"I'm sorry what in the hell is an Elmore, is that a city in Switzerland or something?" Saul asked.

"No, California." Carrie said.

"I've been to Cali plenty of times and not once have I heard of a place called Elmore." Saul said smoothing out his hair.

"Wait what year is it?" Darwin asked.

"Isn't that obvious?" Saul asked. "It's 2003!" Saul yelled.

"Who even are you then?" Carrie asked

"I already told you, I'm Saul Goodman, attorney at law, and you three are hella lucky I haven't called the cops on you hooligans." Saul said pissed off. Darwin stepped back and took a deep breath.

"So what do we do now?" Darwin asked. Carrie and Penny shrugged at him.

"Well I do need some help with a business, and you three look extremely marketable." Saul said. "How about this, you three do a commercial and I'll help you kids with whatever." Saul said The three looked at each other and smiled.

"I can't appear on film." Carrie said.

"Shit, okay you two can do it then." Saul said. Darwin and Penny nodded.

-Laundromat- 

Gumball and Phil had snuck behind the men who were confronting the man who drove them there unknowingly. After hiding for around a few minutes another man walked in, he had messy hair and a strange shirt for the situation. He started to do something around the facility which Phil noted.

"I think he's making something, maybe a pharmaceutical of sorts." Phil whispered.

"How can you tell?" Gumball asked.

"Well, it's a pharmaceutical, pharmaceuticals are made in factories." Phil explained.

"Why do you know so much about pharmaceuticals?"

"Got bored and went to Wikipedia."

"Of course." then after a while another man walked in who was sharply dressed. The bald threatened man seemingly begged for their lives as the sharply dressed man started putting on a safety suit. He continued before grabbing a box cutter. The men were all frightened.

"Should we help them?" Gumball asked. That's when the man slowly slit the throat of the one doing all the action. Gumball and Phil had watched as the man bled out all over the floor.

"Get back to work." The man who used the box cutter said. Both were awestruck by the random aggression from the man who walked out from the room, after he did Gumball and Phil nearly passed out, Gumball tried holding himself together upon seeing Phil faint before seeing all the blood everywhere. Gumball watched as the two bald men and the strangely dressed one cleaned up and loaded the man into a barrel and put in some strange liquid. Phil soon awoken after a half hour making them both fall into the lab being seen by the bald man who unknowingly smuggled them in and the messily dressed man who screamed in horror making the kids scream.

"What the actual fuck yo!" The messy one yelled.

"Jessie, grab a broom or something!" The bald man yelled at the messy one whose name was Jesse apparently.

"Whoah dude we're cool, okay, we're chill!" Gumball yelled

"Yeah we don't have anything on us!" Phil yelled immediately afterwards. Jesse then started to swing a broom at them making Gumball draw his sword and point it at them.

"I-I'm not going to re-repeat myself, we're cool alright." Gumball said slightly stuttering about his situation.

"Woah woah woah!" Jesse yelled dropping the broom.

"Okay then just put the sword down, okay." The bald man said.

"Okay then now we're getting somewhere." Gumball said dropping the sword which the bald man tried grabbing before it dissipated into light particles that went back to Gumball. "Now we'll introduce ourselves, I'm Gumball Watterson and that's Phil Eggtree." Gumball said.

"It's Egg- wait no you got it right that time." Phil said.

"I'm Jesse, and that's Mistah White." Jesse said.

"My full name is Walter Hartwell White, but I suppose you may call me Walt." Walter said sighing.

"Great, now that that's done we should get to questioning." Gumball said.

"Yeah, why are you guys making pharmaceuticals under a laundromat?" Phil asked.

"We're making crystal methanethetamines." Walter said. Phil then pulled in Gumball.

"Gumdrop, we need to get out of here." Phil said.

"Why's that?" Gumball asked.

"These guys make actual drugs, they're probably dangerous." Phil replied.

"Noted just let me grab my... Tele-thingy.", Gumball said realizing he didn't have it. "Phil is it in your pocket?" Gumball asked. Phil checked his pockets with no luck before Gumball started looking for it frantically. "Crap, I think it's in his car." Gumball said gesturing towards Walt.

"What's in my car?" Walter asked.

"Well the thing that brought us to your dimension, see we came from a place called Dreamland then we used said device to get here before falling on your car then hiding in your trunk sneakily and finally sneaking in here behind you and those other guys." Phil explained.

"So you left something in my car, my property after breaking into it and then threaten me with a sword?" Walter asked. "Now that we have that I'm going to make you two an offer, you help me and Jesse kill off Gus, and in return I'll give you your portal device."

"That's a total rip-off!" Gumball yelled.

"Technically it's extortion." Phil said.

"Yeah!" Gumball yelled.

"Mistah White, are we really going to use kids to kill, we aren't Gus yo, I ain't doin' that kind of fucked up shit!" Jesse yelled angered by Walter's proposition.

"Jesse they aren't normal kids, if anything they're freaks of nature intruding on our space, our turf, and the only way to kill Gus, is to kill fire with fire."

-Black-Cat Space Base- 

Mister Black-Cat watched as R.O.B machines started to build a chamber to hold the ruby

"Shadow Man, any word on the location of Gumball?" Black-Cat asked.

"Well boss, word reports that Gumball, Darwin, and Meta-knight are all in Albuquerque, yet there's something weird about it." Shadow Man said.

"What's that?"

"Well the fish and the borb are all in the 2003 time period while the cat is in 2009." Shadow Man explained.

"Time period?" Black-Cat asked. "Does this mean we've invented time travel?" Black-Cat asked.

"Technically yes but also no, Boss have you ever seen Endgame?" Shadow Man asked.

"Yes, but I prefer She-Hulk." Black-Cat said.

"Terrible, just awful preferences aside, it's kinda like that, but more so not, like an outside force disrupting the natural flow of Albuquerque could change the timeline juristically, if the ones are outside the universe's natural flow, meanwhile we can't kill baby Gumball since his world's flow is meant to fit anyone and everyone." Shadow Man explained.

"Diabolical." Black-Cat said.

"However there's good news, we can kill Gumball by any means, burn him, crush him, even just a good ol' bullet through the fuckin' face." Shadow Man said slowly growing more sadistic before going back to his normally silly self.

"Intriguing, I think you can kill Darwin and those other misfits, then I'll have Mania execute the knight, then finally I'll get both of you and the others to kill Gumball and that mouthless rat he has with him." Black-Cat said as the robots finished the first Pillar of Doomsday.

Chapter Text

Meta Knight, the knights, and the stickmen had been running for at least an hour before stopping by an Alleyway in sight of an old man eating a sandwich.

They approached him cautiously.

"Hello sir, I am Meta Knight, and we wish to see a noble hero who is willing to help us." Meta Knight said.

The man checked his sandwich for any mold or signs of spoilage.

"Alright I'll bite, one of you try and smack me and if I react and feel it, then I'll be willing to say anything." He said.

Sword Knight puffed his chest and started to strode up to the man, readying his palm to smack the stuff out of an old man.

As soon as he swung however, the man grabbed his wrist(?) and kicked him onto a curb.

Meta Knight was impressed by the display of skill by this old man.

"If I may ask what's your name?" Meta Knight asked.

"Well I guess your guy did something, name's Mike, Mike Ehrmantraut, and you six are?"

"I am Meta Knight, and they're Sword and Blade Knight."

"I'm Ellie Rose."

"I'm Charles, and that's Henry."

"Alright so you guys want heroes right?" Mike asked.

They all nodded.

"Well I'm sorry but you're going to have to go out of state for that." Mike said.

"Well then I'll just ask if you'd join us!" Meta Knight said.

"I'm Flattered but no." Mike said "I gave up that work a long time ago."

"Look I'm not with the whole hero thing but please I need help too, finding someone, a kid, her parents were killed and I'm basically her one guardian so please." Ellie said.

Mike froze and was reminded of his kid, Matt, and his Granddaughter Kaylee, this was someone whose kid was lost and she's trying to find her.

"Alright, I'm with you guys then, but I have some rules, the first thing is that I want a day to get ready for this, second is when we're doing anything at all, no half measures, that means no slacking or half assing, am I clear or is there anything else that I'm going to need to explain?" Mike said.

The six chatted about it and were all in agreement.

Phred continued to be behind Zack and Smiley examining the mall for those eyes that would occasionally appear in the darkness.

"Phred what is it?" Zack asked, clearly annoyed.

"Alright, I think something's trying to hunt us down and I don't want to be a movie character, especially one that dies first!" Phred yelled.

"Phred your being hysterical." Zack said, "I mean, it's highly unlikely that anyone would be here, the only monster that would be tolerant of this place would be a wild trash animal like a raccoon." He continued as a face appeared behind him.

"What about a cat?" The face asked as Zack froze up in tension.

He and Smiley turned around seeing a black cat with beady eyes and white gloves.

"Welcome to my humble abode, Trespassers!" He yelled.

"Um, hi, sorry we were just on our way we just wanted to get to the exit." Smiley said nervously.

"Oh, but I must say, do you want to know what I do to trespassers?" The cat asked.

"No not really." Zack said.

"Aww, that's a shame, my prey's much less afraid when I tell them what I do to their types." The cat said.

The three all stepped backwards.

"Oooh, I think I know what we can do, a simple game of hide and seek, you three have to hide from me as I chase you, and if I getcha, you're out." The cat said showing off some yellow teeth.

"Um okay, how long are you counting for?" Phred asked.

"Oh, you'll see, and hear, and pray, and cry, and die, but we're getting ahead of ourselves." The cat said snarling. "I'll count for, ah a minute, makes it more challenging, more fun than just killing you all now, hu hu hu hu."

He disappeared into the shadows while counting.

"Wait, who even are you?" Smiley asked.

"I'm the one, the only, Cartoon cat." Cartoon cat said within the darkness.

The three gulped in fear before starting to run.

Gumball and Phil sat in the trunk as Walter and Jesse drove them to a man they called Saul.

"So what's with that Saul guy anyway, is he a good man or something like that?" Gumball asked.

"What are you on about, he's the lawyer that keeps knuckleheads like you out of people like Gus's sights." Walt said.

"Maybe he keeps your ego afloat too." Phil said as Gumball laughed.

"Are you two still this blind to our situation, we're going to be killed in who knows how long, and if you don't help us we're all as good as dead." Walter said angered by the kids laughing about him.

They made it to Saul's and walked in, the office was quite a mixture of tacky and fun which would be enjoyable at varying degrees.

The four walked in seeing Saul on his laptop licking his lips to something that he was watching on there.

"Yo, jack off." Jesse said making Saul frantically close his laptop and zip his fly.

"What, you two have caused enough trouble for me, literally a few days ago I was threatened by an associate about breaking my damn... Legs, Walt where'd you find those two?" Saul asked pointing at the kids.

"They snuck into the lab." Walt said.

"Are you- are you two fucking insane, like Jesus Christ am I going to have to do another entanglement with a mutant and his pals?" Saul asked.

"Um, mutant, don't you mean something like a person or a sentient being?" Gumball asked.

"Another, what do you mean by another?" Phil asked.

"Six years ago, three kids, a ghost, a fairy, and an orange fish came into my office and tied me up!" Saul yelled.

"Wait an orange fish?" Gumball gasped. "Darwin." He said as it clicked in his head.

"Yeah him, and guess what came after, fucking reptiles and a Shadowy Man, just an entire mind fuck." Saul said leaning back in his chair stressed out.

"If Darwin was here six years ago, Phil, this means he's alive and out there!" Gumball yelled.

"Darwin?" Phil asked.

"My little brother, but I wonder, where is he?" Gumball asked.

"Have you been wrongly accused of theft, vandalism, or worse, maybe murder?" Darwin asked on the TV.

"Well I suggest you Better Call Saul!" He yelled.

The four watched the commercial Darwin, Penny, and Saul played in and Carrie helped with.

"Nice job I will say, I suggest whenever you get back to that Elmore place you take up a job in acting." Saul said after the commercial was over.

"I've been in one before, mainly because money was really tight, so much so that the world went wack." Darwin said.

"Huh, guess money really does make the world go round." Saul said.

There was then a knock on the door.

"Hello, is monsieur Goodman?" A jolly voice said.

"Um, yeah, one sec." Saul looked at the Three. "Hide somewhere."

"Um, yeah come in." Saul said making sure Darwin, Carrie, and Penny were out of sight.

The door opened revealing a pure black man with pure white eyes walking in with a smile.

After him came a green crocodile who was bipedal, he was wearing a crown and a red cape, and one of his eyes was bloodshot red.

"Name's Shadow Man, behind me is King K. Rool, and we believe you're hiding something from us, and by multiversal law numbero let's see here..." Shadow Man pulled out a comically large book, "ah, number one hundred seventy two thousand, hiding something or someone from an alternate universe is considered a crime." Shadow Man said before closing the book.

The Cousins, Lalo and Hector had seated themselves in a room waiting for the caller to arrive.

He did thankfully and swiftly seated himself.

Lalo then spoke.

"entonces que negocio tienes con la familia Salamanca" Lalo asked.

"Le pido un favor, la protección de Saul Goodman y los que están en su oficina, no me importa si lo espía para mantenerlo a salvo, solo hágalo y le pagaré a su maravillosa familia, Señor Lalo." The man said still within a hood.

"Gracias, ¿Cuánto estás pagando?" Lalo asked.

"Dos millones."

"¿Como es ese sonido, Tío?" Lalo asked his paralyzed Uncle.

His uncle smiled at the money and rung the bell.

"bien, trato amigo. ¿Que TE llamo?"

"Z" Z said before tossing a briefcase full of cash.

Smiley, Phred, and Zack had all been running from the Cartoon Cat.

They soon hid in one abandoned part surrounded by darkness.

"Okay so, any ideas?" Zack asked.

Phred then began thinking, however it was much less due to his lack of caffeine, he continued to think about it until he figured something out.

"I think I know what to do, we need to be the Jerry to his Tom." Phred said as he saw a fire extinguisher.

As he began to open the case he smelled cinnamon which for some unknown reason made him feel confident.

He successfully pulled it out and hid himself and signaled Smiley to start making noise.

"Ow, my foot!" She yelled at a moderately loud tone.

The cat immediately jumped down and cornered Smiley who "limped" to the corner.

"Well that was easy pickins." Cartoon Cat laughed.

Before he could even step forwards Phred used the fire extinguisher to whack the cat in the head which stunned it.

"Run!" Phred yelled before spraying the extinguisher on the cat.

The three all ran but not before seeing the exit.

"There it is!" Phred yelled.

But before they could reach it the cat jumped in front of it, his expression was still a smiling maniacal mess of yellow teeth.

"I'm going to peel off your skin when I'm through with ya!" He yelled as his voice was intruded by static sounds.

The three ran to the left dodging hands, Phred did get a lucky hit by slamming the bottom of the Fire extinguisher on the top of the cat's right hand.

Phred laughed before seeing the glove empty and a hand from it, if you could call it one it was more of a bunch of black twigs sticking from a black ball.

"Gross." Phred said before continuing to run.

The cat was smiling, he always loved a chase, especially a challenging one, there was also an intrigue he felt with them that reminded him of an earlier encounter with that damned horse.

He remembers seeing it, yet not attacking it, it stared at him, with its eyeless sockets piercing.

Nothing was exchanged, just silence once again.

Mike had packed up his supplies, a gun, some bread, and multiple containers of pimento cheese in a cooler with the bread.

He then made a few calls, one was to Mr. McGill, otherwise known as Saul Goodman, no answer.

He then called Gus Fring.

"Hello?" Gus asked.

"Gus it's me Mike, I just wanted to let you know that I'm heading out for the next few weeks."

"For what cause?" Gus asked.

"A reunion back in Philadelphia."

"Hm, alright I suppose when I can I can-"

"But I got some favors for you." Mike said cutting Gus off.

"And what is that?"

"My Daughter in law's protection, and her daughter too, both of them under your protection, and at least a few ten thousand dollars." Mike said.

Gus was silent.

"That's all I ask for of you, financial security for my family." Mike said.

"Fine then, I will accept your request, however, you must do one more job before you leave." Gus said.

"Alright then, let's hear it."

Gumball, Phil, and Walter all were in the car, Walt's car all wondering about what to do.

"Any ideas?" Gumball asked.

"Well Jesse and I can try to get to Gus but I don't think he wants to be anywhere near Jesse or I." Walt said.

"Maybe, just maybe we can use a little trick up our sleeve, the police, no connection to us." Phil said.

"Are you insane?" Walt asked.

"What, just use a payphone bada-bing-bada-boom." Phil said.

"No, we have to kill Gus ourselves." Walter said.

"Why?" The blue cat and the green hoodie boy asked.

"Because what if he predicts it, then he slices all of our throats with box cutters." Walt said.

"Look we can't do this all in one day, Walt can we crash with you?" Phil asked.

"No, hell no, my house with my family is not where I'm stowing away some multi-dimensional freak shows, my apartment, that's where you two stay, am I clear?" Walter said, insulted by the very thought of the two crashing at his place.

"Fine." Gumball said. "Just give us the keys."

"See, one of you has common sense." Walt said.

"Egotistical bastard." Phil muttered.

Walter dropped them off at a white modern home, they used the key to get in the place and were surprised by the state it was in.

"Jesus, for a meth maker his place is pretty clean" Phil said as Gumball pulled out a plastic eye from a drawer.

"Wonder where that came from." Gumball muttered before putting the eye back.

"So what should we plan out?" Gumball asked.

"Well I propose that the best way to beat Gus and Walt is to get them fighting and steal back the telemension." Phil said.

"That's probably a bad idea, he'd probably find out about that." Gumball said.

Mr. Black-Cat checked with Mania.

"Situation?" He asked.

"Well I'm spying on a Mike Ehrmantraut fellow who... Shit!" Mania yelled slamming his fist on something.

"What?" Black-Cat asked.

"So apparently those stick people and that knight from popstar have teamed up with this Mike guy." Mania said.

Black-Cat sighed and hung up.

"Gumbot, any progress on, well, anything?" Black-Cat asked.

"Well Sir, that "Ruby" is apparently not a ruby at all, after scouring Shadow Man's computer I've found out it's surprisingly, an emerald." Gumbot said.

"Emerald? But it's red, I've never seen a red emerald, and believe me, those mines have great ass emeralds."

"I know Sir, I believe that it is a cause of us using the telemensions led to it being, not created but found, and I also believe that emeralds with similar power are out there, but we'll need more research and scanning."

"I see." Black-Cat said before taking in that he must kill Gumball to keep this happening in the first place. "Well we'll eliminate problem one, Gumball first, does that sound alright?" Black-Cat asked.

"As your creation I see no other choice for our operation to succeed." Gumbot said, lying to Black-Cat.

"Well good, I'll have Ridley and Rocky go after Gumball and that kid." Black-Cat said.

"Very well sir I'll tell them to be ready for the mission immediately." Gumbot said.

"Hold on now, I want us to do a joint job, to take on Meta Knight, I wish to see his true power." Black-Cat said smiling under his mask.

"Very well sir." Gumbot said.

They immediately left the office and went to tell Rocky and Ridley the mission and their goal, which was obviously a kill mission, for once again the cat giving Black-Cat Industries trouble was once again on the spot.

Chapter Text

Shadow Man and King K. Rool stood at Saul Goodman who was seated on his desk.

"Hwa hwa hwa!" K. Rool laughed.

"Look new guy, the boss will pay you big time if you find those three." Shadow Man said.

"You- you explained that before we got-"

K. Rool and Shadow Man tensed up as they heard a gun click behind them.

"Hola amigos." Lalo said with the cousins behind him.

"L-Lalo?" Saul asked.

"Hola Señor Goodman." Lalo said before pistol whipping Shadow Man in the back of the neck.

King K. Rool put his hands up.

"Good, now close your eyes." Lalo said smiling before getting tripped by Shadow Man using a cane, a candy cane.

Lalo tried shooting Shadow Man but he was gone.

K. Rool then kicked Lalo to the cousins, both caught Lalo and set him down before one of them grabbed an axe that he carried on his back and swung it at the kremling king who put his guard up with his golden belly and knocked back his attacker.

Shadow Man appeared in front of the other cousin pointing his candy cane as if it were a gun and pulled a trigger, thankfully Marco ducked and grabbed the candy cane by the "barrel" and pulled it out of Shadow Man's hands and whacked him in the head with it.

Leonel was now in a fist fight with the croc having lost his axe which was lodged in one of the colemns in Goodman's office.

King K. Rool had then grabbed Leonel by the neck and started choking him.

Suddenly he was hit on the head by a mallet and knocked out cold by Darwin.

"Um, hello sir." Darwin said as Leonel's eyes widened before he shook it off and went to beat the shit out of Shadow Man with Marco.

Lalo got up and laughed at the fact that Darwin was in Goodman's office.

"So that's why he paid us." Lalo laughed before getting up and coughing.

Shadow Man slithered his way from the Salamanca family and ran to King K. Rool's unconscious body and opened a portal beneath them.

"So are we not going to question the fact that a giant crocodile and a literal Shadow Man went in my office?" Saul Goodman said panicked.

"If it makes you feel any better, someone paid for your projection from them so you should be fine." Lalo said.

He then turned his attention to Darwin.

"New pet, or is it a new assistant?" Lalo asked jokingly.

"An actor for a new commercial I'm working on." Saul said.

The Salamancas left having gotten the axe from the column and Leonel giving a nod to Darwin.

Gumball and Phil had been in Albuquerque for what felt like days.

"How many days now?" Gumball asked.

"A month, so thirty, additional few days since it's July." Phil said as Walter bursted through the door.

"We need to do something Now!" Walter White yelled panicking.

"What, what the what is it?" Gumball said summoning his sword.

"It's Gus, he-he's manipulated Jesse, turned him against me, my family is in danger, please I need your help, both of you, please, I'll give you back your device, just help me." Walter pleaded.

Gumball sighed.

"Yeah fine, we'll help, but I won't kill the guy, you can do that crap." Gumball said holding out his paw.

"Okay, okay." Walter said calming down.

"We just need a plan, part A is to get back Jesse on our side, B is to get Gus to come to us, and C..." Phil paused. "Nevermind no C."

"Alright so to get Jesse, I think we can do something about that." Walter said.

Phred, Smiley and Zack all had found another hiding spot.

"We can't hide here forever, that cat probably knows every inch of this place."  Zack said peeking out a corner.

Smiley held up the device storing the quarters.

"This thing can open up portals, maybe it can do other things besides storing quarters, and traveling." Smiley said.

"Alright." Phred said snatching the thing away.

"Hey." Smiley said disappointed.

Phred started messing with the device, pressing the button in the center.

He found out it also functioned as a knob as well.

"Huh, neat." Phred said silently.

Smiley and Zack watched Phred mess with it.

"Phred be careful, you might-" Smiley froze at the sight of the Cartoon Cat.

"Why there you three are, I knew I'd find you three eventually." The cat said showing his yellow teeth attached to blood leaking gums.

Phred, Smiley and Zack all backed into a corner.

"Now I'm going to put you three through the most pain imaginable, slowly, I'll break all your limbs and snap your ribs like twigs." The cat said stretching his hand towards the trio.

They huddled and closed their eyes, anticipating the pain they'd feel.

However a golden light shined on their faces and had the arm of the cat in it.

"What in the-" The cat then grabbed his own head accidentally and looked behind, he saw a golden ring working as a portal.

Mike Ehrmantraut had been looking for a group of thieves that had caused a scene in Gus' restaurant

"So a red head, a bald guy, some... Knight LARPers." Mike thought about it until he saw MetaKnight approaching him.

"Hello Mr. Ehrmantraut." Meta Knight said before bowing.

"What are you doing here?" Mike asked semi-pissed off.

"Well, I wish to help you with your luggage, I can carry it to the Halberd for you if it's required." MetaKnight said, Mike then took a look at him.

"You didn't happen to have been at a restaurant recently, one that sells chicken?" Mike asked.

"Well yes, sadly my currency wasn't acceptable." MetaKnight said.

Mike looked at him, MetaKnight was clearly disturbed that he couldn't pay.

"Alright I'll tell you what, my boss wanted me to find you and your gang and beat the money out of ya, but since you seem like you want to pay it I'll take you to him and I'll give you the money you'll need to pay it off, sounds good?" Mike asked.

"Of course, thank you, I knew there was a reason why we chose you to join us." MetaKnight said.

Meanwhile Gumbot had flown through the skies of Albuquerque to find the Halberd, MetaKnight's ship, and found it hidden within the deserts.

He immediately boarded, before sneaking throughout the ship and finding the Triple Threat and the Knights.

"Attention fugitives." He said getting their attention.

"You're under arrest for acts against the Black-Cat empire." He said.

"Oi, let's take this clanker on!" Sword knight yelled as he and Blade Knight ran towards him and slashed at him.

Gumbot blocked them having his arm form into a sword and parrying the knights.

Henry then jumped at Gumbot.

"Stickmin PAWNCH!" He yelled, the fiery fist rushed at Gumbot before it was caught.

"Fail." Gumbot said before throwing Henry into a wall.

He scanned Henry getting each detail from him, abilities, weaknesses, stories and was ready to use it all against him and the others.

Ellie and Charles stood there in shock before bolting into the hallway.

Gumbot immediately got ready to chase after them and got into a stance to propel himself.

"Oi, we ain't done with ya yet ya bloody clanker!" Sword Knight yelled having jumped after Gumbot.

Gumbot then caught him before Blade Knight slashed his leg, however when he did the blade simply moved through it like water.

"What in the bloody-" Blade was cut off by Gumbot slamming him headfirst into the floor.

Blade staggered up and saw that Gumbot's hand had become a sword akin to Blade's own.

Blade Knight rolled away from the striking sword.

Gumbot then put his sword-hand into a stabbing stance and drove it to where Blade was standing making the knight accept his fate.

That's when something stopped the sword, a purple hand from a purple stickman.

Jesse had been smoking a cigarette before his phone rang.

It was unknown.

"Yo?" He asked as he answered.

"Jesse! Jesse! It's the kids, Gus has me and them, he-he's got us in some kind of truck!" Walter yelled.

"¡Callarse la Boca!" A voice yelled in Spanish.

"*Rgh*" Walter White then ran off.

"Mistah White?" Jesse yelled.

A truck drove by before opening and Walt jumped out of it.

Jesse saw the two kids, Gumball and Phil, tied up with the men shooting at Walt before he was too far away from them for them to hit him.

Jesse ran to Walter who had staggered.

"Jesse we need to get to the car." Walter said.

"But Mistah White wha-"

"I'll explain later just get in the damn car!" Walter yelled.

The duo got in Jesse's car and drove after the truck.

"Okay mind telling me what happened?" Jesse asked.

"Okay, Gus found out about the kids I was hiding, and now he's going to kill me and them." Walter said.

"Jesus Christ, you're serious?" Jesse asked.

Gumball and Phil meanwhile had sat within the truck with Huell and Kuby driving them.

"So we're basically going to lure him here?" Gumball asked.

"Yeah that's pretty much the plan." Kuby said watching for the meth making duo.

Once Walt and Jesse caught up "Gus'" men started shooting at them missing each shot.

"Mistah White, start shooting those bitches!" Jesse yelled.

Walter grabbed a pistol from the glove box and began firing at the men, he even got one in the chest.

"Holy-" Gumball yelled.

"Don't worry." Kuby said.

"He's wearing a bullet proof vest and a bunch of ketchup bottles." Huell said.

The other man got shot in the chest as well leaking ketchup as well.

Huell stopped the truck and he and Kuby got out and held their hands up.

Jesse stopped the car and Kuby started thanking him.

"Oh Christ you're a real life saver, and taker but still thank you they had guns to our head and forced us to drive to Gus, he was going to use the kids as meth slaves, or would've just killed them." Kuby said.

"He would've killed me as well Jesse and now he's going to kill my family, now I know you hate Hank, and Skylar, but he'll kill my son and daughter too, I can't- we can't let him do that." Walter explained.

"Yeah no, alright I'm in, I'll take this bitch down." Jesse said nodding.

Cartoon Cat grinned at the strange rings holding his hands.

"What is this?" He asked as another ring opened and threw out a charger and a charging block to the three.

Smiley immediately grabbed it and plugged it in and plugged the pad.

After she did that the ring turned to face the floor.

Out of it came a tan lady with light purple and dark pink clothing in a mixture of Egyptian and Hawaiian style, her hair was brown and tied into a ponytail, finally there were multiple rings on her hands, arms, earrings, and clothes.

"I'll handle it myself." She said smiling to the three.

"Who are you then?" Cartoon Cat asked tilting his head.

"I am the bringer of perfection to universes opposing it, and you are as imperfect as they come." She said.

"Oh, we'll see how perfect it will be for you to be torn to shreds." The cat said reaching his other hand.

The woman used another ring to trap his other hand.

Then another one opened for his hand to come out and grab his face.

She continued to use rings to entangle the cat continuously before Smiley grabbed the pad and opened a portal.

"Guys, c'mon!" She yelled grabbing Zack and Phred's hands and jumping into a green portal leading into a desert like place.

"No... My... PREY!" Cartoon Cat yelled in pure unfiltered anger towards the woman holding him.

"Well that's my cue to leave you imperfect freak of nature." She said stepping through another ring with the others following her, slowly freeing the cat in the process.

Cartoon Cat was soon in the mall, alone again.

MetaKnight and Mike had been walking to the Los Pollos Hermanos restaurant.

Once they got there something was immediately wrong, it was completely empty during busy hours.

Mike drew his gun while MetaKnight drew his sword and they both walked in and saw that the employees only door was wide open.

They both carefully snuck by and to the corner of the door and then looked at each other, then inside they saw Gus, yet he looked grey and had purple on him.

"Gus?" Mike asked.

MetaKnight ran in the room and saw Gus in a state of being like a rock with crystals on him, purple ones.

"Beautiful isn't it?" A raspy voice said from behind.

Mike and MetaKnight looked there and saw a cat with a black cloak and a grey Gas mask.

"What in the hell?" Mike asked.

"Oh yes, introduction, I know you two yet you two don't know me, I'm Mr. Black-Cat, CEO and owner of Black-Cat Incorporated." Black-Cat said before bowing.

"What happened to Mr. Fring!" MetaKnight yelled demanding an answer.

"Simple, he's crystalized, reduced to a form of rock, his soul is trapped within as well if you were wondering, so he's not dead just a rock with a soul inside of it."

MetaKnight seemed angered yet was very still.

"Anyways I came here to duel you Sir MetaKnight." Black-Cat said drawing his sword.

"I assume you're the one that kingnapped King Dedede?" MetaKnight asked.

"Oh, yes I suppose I did, and I do say he's very nice in statue form." Black-Cat said.

MetaKnight took a deep breath.

"Fine then, let us duel." He said drawing his sword, Galaxia.

The cat and the borb stared each other down before rushing at each other and hitting each other's swords.

Mike stood there before aiming for Black-Cat's head with his pistol.

That's before a grappling tool caught it and pulled it away.

"What the fu-" Mike was then punched in the face by a masked man, Z, he was punched by Z.

MetaKnight had then used a sword beam attack aimed at Black-Cat which he dodged and slashed his katana at MetaKnight who blocked the attack before jumping back at the sight of a duel welding of Black-Cat.

"Hm, so you dual wield?" The knight asked walking in a circle in the opposite direction of the tycoon.

"Why yes, as business goes, why own one when you can get more, same can be said for weapons." Black-Cat said.

"You seem to think everything is a business don't you?"

"Of course, were Star Warriors not a company?"

"Of course not, the Star Warriors were a group dedicated to saving those from Nightmare Enterprise."

"So a charity case, oh how fun, you simply fought for people who were-"

"You seem to not understand, the Star Warriors fought people like you."

Black-Cat looked at the Borb who was glaring daggers back at him.

He ran towards the borb and made his hands set fire to the katanas.

He then used them to slash at MetaKnight who had to dodge the swords and fire.

"You can't think that I'm that distractible do you Mr. Black-Cat?" MetaKnight said before doing a Mach-Tornado.

He spun around the restaurant before charging at Black-Cat by doing Drill-Rush.

Black-Cat blocked it and paryed.

"I see you rely on getting in my face." Black-Cat said.

"How about this." Black-Cat continued before jumping to one of the walls and clinging on before drawing a sawed off shotgun stylized using red dragons on the barrels.

He then started running on the wall firing shells that caught fire to the restaurant.

King K. Rool had watched as the orange fish, ghost, slimeball of a man, and the fairy had walked out from the law office.

'Knock me out will they?' He thought angered by the pure idea of being beaten, like with the Kongs.

"Kremlings, attack that fishy foe!" K. Rool yelled as General Klump, a portly kremling wearing a helmet and Krusha, a light blue built kremling who had spikes on his head that looked like a mohawk, jumped down with some other goons surrounding the group.

"Hwa hwa hwa, where are your Cartel buddies now?" K. Rool asked as he jumped down last.

"Hey it's the Alligator." Darwin said.

"A-Alligator?" King K. Rool asked with his eyes twitching.

"Now sir we do know he's an uneducated fish, right Krusha?" Klump asked trying to calm down the king.

Smoke cartoonishy came from the Kremling King's earholes making a train whistle sound as the Kremling Crew felt Gang-Plank Gallion playing.

K. Rool grabbed his blunderbuss and shot out a cannon ball at Darwin who was nearly hit by it.

The rest of the Kremlings charged as Penny and Carrie flew upwards leaving Darwin and Saul to fight off the Kremlings.

Darwin rushed for Krusha who laughed before spinning and hitting Darwin's hammer knocking him off course.

Klump then grabbed him and threw him down and kicked him making him roll like a soccer ball.

"Goal!" Klump yelled.

Krusha then jumped to Saul.

"Hey hey I'm not someone you want to mess with alright?", Saul said trying to get out of this situation.

"Why's that suit boy?" Krusha asked while cracking his knuckles.

"Well I've got connections." Saul said.

"Hah, like what, a ta-" Krusha was interrupted by a 2004 Audi A8 L D3 driven by Saul's love Kim Wexler.

"Kim I-"

"Jimmy get your ass in the backseat!" Kim yelled as Jimmy got in, Carrie immediately appeared next to him once he got in.

Kim drove to the orange fish who was out cold and got him into the front seat.

Penny then jumped in with Saul and Carrie before Kim started to drive away from the Kremlings.

"Thanks Ms..." Penny said not knowing what Kim's last name was, or her name in general.

"Wexler, your ghost friend told me that you three and Jimmy were in trouble." Kim said.

"Oh, nice." Penny said.

"No no no no no!" King K. Rool yelled as he threw his blunderbuss, and a tantrum.

Klump then had an idea.

"Well what are you waiting for you half-wits?" He asked. "Get them!" Klump yelled making the rest of the Kremlings chase after the car.

Mania had tooken a seat and saw that Gumbot, Z, and Mr. Black-Cat were busy, but Gumball and Phil needed to be dealt with.

"Hey Rocky, Super Brainz, I need you two to get Gumball and the bowling ball." Mania said on a earpiece.

"Oi right on it mate." Rocky said.

The zombie hero and the Traitorous plant met in the office.

"Uh, why're ya sittin' on Black-Cat's chair mate?" Rocky asked.

"Uhh, not important, what is important is that you two snap that cat in half." Mania said.

"Alright but why do I gotta work with the plant?" Super Brainz asked.

"Just do it, Now!" Mania yelled as the two walked out.

"May I ask, why did you betray the plants?" Super Brainz asked.

"Well, long story, met a bloke who I called Thrasher, Armoured Chomper who I knew personally, joined L.E.A.F and was on top, took imps out in seconds, but one day, died in action, my best friend shot to death by a bloody group of foot soldiers, I nearly died trying to kill them all myself, but I did, what did I get, fuck all, my friend who died in action, he wasn't even noticed for it, we plants and you zombies, we're seen as expendable, just bloody pawns fighting it in an everlasting stalemate!" Rocky yelled having tears in his eyes.

"Huh, I think I understand, so you go betray the plants because they see you and your friends as expendable?" Super Brainz asked.

"Yes, I revolted after my closest friend dies and they did nothing, and I'm sure Zomboss has done that to you, you had a friend, they die and are just replaced?" Rocky asked as he got his new Telemension ready.

"Well... No." Super Brainz said.

"Wait all of your friends are still alive?" Rocky asked.

"Well also no, most zombies at my rank see me as an "eggomaniac"." Super Brainz said.

"So no friends." Rocky said.

"Nope I got none." Super Brainz said.

"Heh, ya do now mate." Rocky said.

The duo then stepped through the portal leading them to the outskirts of New Mexico.

Waiting for them was a group of the same robotic skeletons used to attack Dreamland.

They presented a ride for the two to use.

"Oi right we sho-"

"I'll drive!" Super Brainz yelled in excitement.

"All right then, driving is fun innit?"

Walter, Jesse, Gumball, and Phil were going to Gus'chicken farms to lay the bastard out.

That's before Gumball saw something in the mirror, fire.

He looked from the backseat to see a car crawling with those skeletons used all the way back in chapter ten.

"Uhh, guys." He said.

Jesse looked in the mirror and his eyes widened.

"Holy shit." He said feeling like he was in said deep shit.

Gumball immediately took action and climbed up to the roof of the car.

"Focus." He heard that voice tell him.

He drew his sword and focused his energy into it.

"Something MetaKnight hadn't told you, due to Black-Cat, was that all sword wielders can focus their energy and release it as a beam." She said.

Gumball did as she said and shot a beam from the sword at the vehicle.

"Oi right, this should be an easy one all right." Rocky said looking at what Black-Cat called Pyro-Skulls.

He then saw the beam.

"Oh bollocks." He said in the exact same manner as Jesse did.

The beam hit the car making it shake off multiple Pyro-Skulls.

Rocky had thankfully rooted himself in and began gatling rocks at Jesse's car.

"Haha, what's this thing called, it can take a punch." Rocky said.

"Blazing-Destruction is it's name sir." One of the Pyro-Skulls said.

"Speaking of destruction, Supes, floor it!" Rocky yelled.

"Got it!"

Super Brainz floored the gas and caught up to the car that looked tiny in comparison.

"Jesus, Jesse floor it!" Walter yelled as Phil reached for the glove box, opened it and took out a pistol.

"What are you-" Walter was cut off by Phil flipping him the bird and climbing out himself.

He got on the roof with Gumball and stood with him.

"So, any plans?" He asked the blue cat.

"Well we have two options, fight or flight,  and I'm not sure if the latter is going to be that good of an option as we go forward.

"Agreed." Phil said.

Gumball then jumped on Blazing-Destruction and cut down a few Pyro-Skulls that had crawled to him.

Rocky then immediately went to stop him from cutting down anymore.

"So we finally meet do we mate, names Rocky, and as cliche as it is it will be the last name you'll hear." Rocky said before shooting a rock at Gumball making him climb more sporadically.

Phil meanwhile was keeping Pyro-Skulls off the car by shooting off their heads.

He then saw that he had one bullet left.

"Flozwad." He said to himself before shooting one last Pyro-Skull.

He then opened the trunk and found a box of ammunition, however they were 5.56mm while he needed .38 rounds.

He kept looking before seeing an aluminum baseball bat, and knowing the aluminum part made it much better since aluminum is a heat conductor, although it would be most likely a risky play, but did Phil have any more options?

Meanwhile Gumball had just climbed to the top of the car before Rocky jumped up with him.

"'Ello again mate." He said before shooting another rock at Gumball who dodged it but ended up slipping and falling off the car but caught on to an edge.

MetaKnight had been keeping away from the fires and proceeded to slash his sword at Black-Cat.

As the restaurant burnt down bits of rubble began falling down on them as they fought.

That's when MetaKnight had an idea like no other, he began slashing the integral infrastructure of the building to force it to fall.

"Trying to crush me eh?" Black-Cat said before he made another one of himself.

"Did you-"

"Why yes I did, and I'm tipping this back in my favor." Black-Cat said, then he and his clone rushed MetaKnight.

MetaKnight flew backwards while blocking four flaming swords at a time.

"Fool!" The knight yelled before using his cape to dodge and slice the last pillar.

He then flew out of a window and grabbed Mike and carried him away from the burning restaurant.

"Are you okay Mr. Ehrmantraut?" He asked before they landed.

"Yeah, yeah, I'm alright, what about you?" Mike asked.

"Yes, quite, I'm sorry about your boss."

"That's what happened to your King right?" Mike asked.

"I'd assume so."

"Well then you let's get my stuff and get to your ship."

Gumbot had dodged more of Reference's attacks and had actually hit him a few times.

He then looked at Henry and began to scan him again and he saw an interesting prospect, a limited amount of timelines with many things that had happened.

He then saw how Henry failed with Reference, Bottled time.

Gumbot formed it and immediately found that time had slowed down and that Henry was wide open for the attack.

He flurry rushed Henry and kicked him into another wall of the interior.

That's before seeing Ellie and Charles controlling a golden machine with two large claws.

"Ay, they've got the Heavy Lobster on em'!" Sword Knight yelled.

Gumbot got into a combat stance before an alarm appeared in his hud making him warp away.

"Oh, well we're fine now." Sword Knight said as he helped Henry up.

Just then MetaKnight carried in Mike's stuff.

"Ellie, Charles what are you doing with The Heavy Lobster?" MetaKnight asked.

"Well sir we were attacked while you were away." Charles said.

"By whom?" MetaKnight asked.

"A robot that looked like Gumball, it apparently said we're fugitives to the Black-Cat Empire." Ellie said.

"Hm, I see, well I will say that it's good that Mike has joined us in the battle against Black-Cat, I personally met and fought him, I barely won, but he doesn't seem like the type to go down so easily." MetaKnight said as Mike got on.

Meanwhile Gumbot had removed rubble that had been trouble for Mr. Black-Cat.

He thankfully got him out and he seemed fairly unharmed.

"Much appreciated Gumbot, could you scan for Z and Mr. Fring, I'm sure they're under there somewhere." Mr. Black-Cat said.

"Yes sir." Gumbot replied as Mr. Black-Cat left.

Kim continued to drive away from the pursuing Kremlings.

That's when Darwin woke up.

"Where am I!" He yelled.

"In my girlfriend's car, by the way Kim, Darwin, Darwin, Kim." Saul said introducing the two.

"Hi." Kim said before drifting the car.

Darwin then heard a voice.

"Darwin, you have to fight them off, it's the only way to take out that slime ball K.Rool." She said in his head.

Darwin then nodded and jumped out much to everyone else's surprise.

He then started whacking and clobbering Kremlings before getting to Krusha.

"Ya know why they call me Krusha?" He asked.

"Why?"

"Cause I'll crush ya!" Krusha yelled slamming his fist at Darwin who slid between his legs and slamming his hammer straight on the ass of the croc making said crocodile scream"YEEEOOOWWCH!"

Then there was Klump who was much more cautious than Krusha, for one he kept two Kremlings with him.

Darwin immediately had an idea.

He started running, but when he was about two yards away he slammed his hammer on the ground and used it like a pole vault and slammed his hammer straight onto Klumps head.

Finally the king.

"So you think you can hit a king, well you got another thing coming don'tcha know?" King K. Rool asked before slamming his foot into the ground.

Before Darwin could react a crown was thrown at him making him duck.

"Ha you miss-" Darwin was his by the crown as it came back to K. Rool.

"Hwa hwa hwa, nice try fish boy, maybe if you paid more attention you'd also see that I'm a crocodile."

Darwin got up and slammed his hammer into the crocodile's golden belly before he was gut checked and knocked back into a dumpster.

"What the what?"

"I see you met my most formidable friend, my golden belly!" King K. Rool yelled as he slapped it with pride.

"Well I guess it's somewhat of a good thing made from the bad." Darwin said while shrugging.

He then got out of the dumpster and cleaned himself off.

"Alright let's get back to the fight then." Darwin said.

"... It never stopped I just didn't kick you while you were down since that's just cheap." The Kremling king said as he charged at and grabbed Darwin before slamming him headfirst into the ground.

Darwin then flipped himself up and began running around the crocodile bopping him erratically before getting grabbed, dragged, and thrown out into a wall then kicked against it.

"Face it fish, you can't beat natural selection, ironically you're named Darwin like the guy who discovered that whole evolution thing everyone is crazy about." The king laughed.

Darwin got up again before looking at the head of the mallet, he then smiled as it grew twice in size.

"What the?"

Darwin then slammed The King of the Kremlings upside the head before slamming down the hammer on his golden belly.

That's when a portal was opened to make the King fall to the base from underneath.

Gumball had been hanging from the roof of the car before stabbing the window of the car and seeing the zombie within.

"Eh, oh, wait before we fight epically let me unbuckle my seatbelt." Super Brainz said before unbuckling said seatbelt.

He then stopped the car and opened the door.

"What the bloody hell are you doing?" Rocky asked.

"What, we're supposed to kill this blue cat aren't we?" Super Brainz said.

"Well yeah but we're supposed to take out the bowling ball kid too- gah!" Rocky yelled as he was hit on the head by Phil with the aluminum baseball bat.

"Bloody, are you serious." Rocky said rubbing his head.

"Well Rocky, it's just them and us." Super Brainz said to Rocky as they stood at Gumball and Phil who were back to back.

Super Brainz then shot a Super Ultra Ball at Gumball forcing him and Phil to duck and cover, this allowed Rocky to fire rocks at them.

Gumball who was facing Rocky had blocked most of them and suddenly did a backflip to face Super Brainz.

"Did- did I just do that?" Gumball asked.

"Yeah actually." Phil said.
"Yes indeed." Super Brainz said as well.
"Yeah mate you did, I saw it, can confirm." Rocky agreed.

Gumball looked down and smiled.

"Phil, get in the rock guy's face."

Phil nodded and ran at Rocky.

"Oh bugger." He said as Phil whacked him upside the head.

Gumball meanwhile had decided to attack Super Brainz who wound up his fist and punched Gumball straight in his face.

"Ha... ha." Super Brainz said as he realized that his hand was starting to hurt.

"Owie!" He said as he waved his hand to make it hurt less.

Gumball had then chuckled before drawing his sword and made sure that he'd use the handle.

Gumball continued to use his head literally to block Super Brainz's punches.

Phil meanwhile was whacking the plant before he could even fire anything.

Before he knew it Rocky was on the ground barely scraping by.

"Ugh, *koff* if you're going to kill me do it now, and make sure your friend doesn't kill mine." Rocky said.

Phil was panting and looked Rocky dead in the eyes before dropping the bat.

"Eh, what the bloody hell are you doing?"

"I'm not going to kill you dude, that's too much man." Phil said.

"Eh, it would be what you'd think I deserve." Rocky said. "After all, it's what Smiley thinks."

Phil froze. "What- what do you mean by that?"

"Oh she listened, listened to me cracking open her parents' skulls like some cans of beans to put on toast." Rocky said while dry laughing.

Phil looked in terror at the killer at his feet.

"So what's your next move then?" Rocky asked. "Bit tricky innit? Deciding whether to kill the guy who killed your friend's parents, or to let him live. Now from personal experience, I'd kill the bastard, done it before, wouldn't mind doing it again." Rocky said looking coldly into Phil's eyes.

That's when he was portaled out of the battle and Gumball knocked Super Brainz into the portal as well.

"Ha, we did it, right Egg... Head." Gumball said as he saw Phil looking down.

Out of the portal before it closed came a note, it read "Fring is dead, you can leave."

Walter and Jesse drove to them and got out.

"Yo, like, you two okay?" Jesse asked.

"Yeah but forget Gus, someone got to him first." Gumball said handing Walter the note.

Walter Read the note and then received a call from Skylar.

"Hello?"

"Walt where are you, I'm going to need you to come over and get me" Skylar trailed on about stuff as the group looked at each other.

"So, our "device"?" Gumball asked.

Walter grabbed the telemension and handed it to him.

"Hey Jesse, never trust this man ever again." Gumball said before he and Phil jumped into the portal.

"So what now Mistah White?" Jesse asked.

"Now Jesse, we get another do over."

Chapter Text

--Unknown location 1:00 pm--

Gumball and Phil had left Albuquerque and had landed in a grassy peaceful field.

"Hey man, why were you, tense after beating that Rocky guy?" Gumball asked.

"Well lets just say that while you were having your battle, he told me he killed my friend's parents and mocked me for sparing him." Phil said.

"Well, look on the bright side-"

"What bright side they're still dead!" Phil yelled.

"Well you killing him wouldn't have brought them back neither now would they?" Gumball said. "It's like trying to forget something, you still remember it, it still happened and if it was out of your control it's still not your fault, it's like blaming the guy who was jogging of stinging you when the wasps did it!" Gumball said having grabbed Phil's shoulders and looked him in the eye.

Phil sighed and looked at the meadows

They were bright green and seemed to have a path.

On said path there was something red in the corner of Phil's eye behind Gumball.

"Hey what's that behind you?" He asked.

"Huh, oh just a balloon." Gumball said before the balloon was popped by an arrow.

The two were then grabbed and were swinging on tree branches with the thing that grabbed them before they got to the rest of the path.

They then got a view of what, or rather who grabbed them, it was a monkey wearing black with a few orange stripes particularly on his hood, wrists, and bag of sticks, there was also a bow on his back.

"Uhh, what the what?" Gumball said as he, Phil, and the monkey went down to the ground path from the tree.

"Sorry about that, I couldn't tell if you were younger monkeys wandering around the forests." The monkey said.

"So you weren't going to break our bones into shards?" Phil asked.

"Woah woah woah, where'd you get that from?" The monkey said, concerned about what was said about what people thought monkeys were about.

"Oh, I guess that's not a norm in your universe." Phil said while looking around.

"Universe?" The monkey asked, confused by what Phil said.

"Long story." Gumball said. "Could you, uh, tell us where we are?"

"Oh, you guys are at Monkey Meadows a beautiful spot that's just the right amount of hot." The monkey said, Phil and Gumball in response looked at each other and cringed.

"Sorry, I always have to say that, publicity."

"So you're like a celebrity, well I guess we should introduce ourselves now since, it's polite." Phil said.

"I'm Gumball and he's Phil." Gumball said gesturing to himself and Phil.

"I'm Quincy, son of Quincy, who's the son of Quincy, who's also the son of Quincy, and so on and so forth." Quincy said.

"Okay, neat, so what's the bow for, and why'd you pop that balloon?" Phil asked.

"That's a bloon, the rival to the natural world." Quincy explained.

"It seemed harmless to me." Gumball said while shrugging.

"Well they're mostly harmless, until you get to the worse ones, the worst one is the B.A.D, or the bosses like Driftbloon or the Litch." Quincy said before shuttering.

"Well then, I guess that explains your phobia of balloons." Phil said calmly.

"Anyways." Gumball said changing the subject. "Is there someplace we can get a bite?" Gumball asked.

"Oh yeah of course, come on we're going to Monkey City!" Quincy called leading the two kids.

--Unknown location 12:00 p.m--

Phred, Smiley, and Zack had gotten into the portal from the mall which led them to a bridge between two forts, one red and wooden, and one blue and metal.

"Huh, neat." Zack said before looking down and seeing two water pipes.

"Better than the dusty old mall." Smiley said.

"You can say that again." Phred said while leaning on the bridge.

That's before a man in red carrying a briefcase ran from the blue fort, he was slim with a cap on his head and dog tags on his neck, he carried a pistol in the holster, a shotgun in his hand, and an aluminum bat on his back.

"Gah, what are you kids doing here!" The man yelled in a panic.

"Looking at the scenery." Zack said.

That's when multiple bullets flew right by the group.

"Holy-, look you three need to get to that fort over there!" The man yelled.

The kids did as he said and ran inside.

Inside there was hay on the floors and multiple ways to go, they got to a place with staircases and ran to the second floor.

"I think we're good." Phred said while panting.

That's when a metal door opened with three other men, a man with a gas mask and strange suit, a man in a hat with sunglasses and a gun on his back, and a big bald man.

That's when the scrawny man ran up with the briefcase.

"Hey fellas." He said awkwardly. "I uh, I got the briefcase." He said.

"Scout, where did small children come from?" The big man asked.

"Look I just saw them on the bridge and told them to come here when they were getting shot at." Scout explained.

"You mean when you were bloody getting shot at and saw them as a liability?" The other man asked.

"Well yeah, what'd you want me to do, let them get their brains blown out." Scout said.

"Well now we got to deal with these brats." The man said getting in Scout's face.

"Hey we're not brats." Smiley said.

"Yeah you dingo eater." Zack continued.

"Bloody dingo eater, I should-"

"SNIPER, calm down, they are small children and feel scared." The big man said.

"Mph mmmmpphh." The masked man said.

"Heavy's right, they're just kids man, ease off a little." Scout said.

Heavy then took a knee. "What are small children here for?" He asked.

"Well we came from an alternate universe." Smiley said.

"First we were in a universe where stick people were the normal thing." Phred said.

"Then we were in a mall, being hunted by a giant cat." Zack said waiting for Phil to finish before realizing that he was still gone.

"Oh yeah, we're also looking for a friend who was sent to a different dimension too." Smiley said.

"So you are lost?" Heavy asked.

They nodded in agreement that they had no idea where they were.

"Well then, I am Heavy Weapons Guy, that baby man is Scout."

"Yo wassup." Scout said.

"Camper is Sniper, and masked man is Pyro, we also have Engineer who is a builder man, Spy who is sneaky rat, Demoman and Soldier who carry explosives, and Doctor." Heavy said.

"Well I'm Smiley, this is Phred, and he's Zack." Smiley said before noticing Zack was gone and in Pyro's arms, Pyro was hugging him and eyeing his fire.

Heavy smiled. "Little girl, would you and your comrades want to stay here for a while and learn some skills of weapons?" He asked.

"Uh, what do you guys think?" She asked.

"Sure as long as they've got stuff to eat, I feel like I haven't eaten in days." Phred said.

"Sure, but can I have some personal space?" Zack said as Pyro backed away from him while still seemingly having a smile.

"Alright it's a unanimous vote on yes." Smiley said.

"What in the bloody- why don't we get any say?" Sniper asked.

"I wouldn't test it Snipes." Scout said smugly.

"Shut it you musky rat-faced mongrel."

"Sniper, look at me." Heavy said staring coldly into Sniper's eyes.

Sniper walked away while mumbling 'piss' under his breath.

"So, who wants sandviches?" Heavy asked.

--Albuquerque 2006--

Darwin met Penny and Carrie when they got out of Kim's car.

Carrie then tossed Darwin the Telemension making him catch and press it.

It opened up to a green area on top of a mountain.

"See ya Saul." Darwin said.

"Yeah bye, just please tell me there'll be no more reptiles trying to kill me." Saul said.

"Unless you count yourself than no." Carrie said before blowing her hair up.

"Alright scram!" Saul yelled.

The three took a couple of steps into the portal and saw that they were on a mountain that spiraled to the top, and in the distance they saw a pink house on a cliff side.

The three traveled down to the house and Darwin knocked on the door.

The one who opened it was a bear with shorts, a necklace with a tooth on it and a backpack.

"Oh, hello there, I'm sorry but I meant to put up a sign that says no soliciting a few days ago and-" He stopped himself when he saw the weird trio.

"Are you going to try and uh, sell me something?" He asked.

"No, were not salesmen." Penny said.

"Yeah we're a ghost, a fish, and whatever Penny is." Carrie said.

"Yeah- Hey!" Penny yelled while crossing her arms and pouting.

"Well, well if you're not trying to sell me something what are you here for?" The bear asked.

"Well, is it okay if we could come in?" Darwin asked.

"Oh, well, sure, a lonely old bear like me could use some company." He said letting them in.

They came in and took some seats, the inside was a nice soft shade of yellow, there were multiple photos of the bear with a red bird in the backpack.

Then there was a row of letters spelling B A N J O,

"What's with the letters?" Darwin asked.

"Oh, that's my name, Banjo, Banjo the bear." Banjo said before grabbing a banjo and strumming it.

"I've made a few tunes in my years of, well not gonna beat around the bush here, retirement." He said.

"What did you retire from?" Penny asked.

"Adventure, only had four, but I think that's enough for a bear like me, retired about... Lets see, carry the two, add three, fifteen years, just about." Banjo said while tuning it.

"well funnily enough we're on our own adventure." Darwin said.

"To find his brother." Carrie continued.

"Well, where's he gone missing to?" Banjo asked.

"That's the thing, he fell through a portal to another world, and so did we, so now we don't have a lead, plus the stupid thing didn't send us to the right place." Darwin explained.

"Well I do know, a few places, but without, an old friend I'm afraid we can't get anywhere to those places." Banjo explained.

"Who's the old friend?" Penny asked.

"She, she left those years ago, without her I can't do no adventuring, Kazooie and I, we used to be inseparable." Banjo said.

This had his memory on about the particular moment they split.

--December 11 2008, 1 month after Nuts and Bolts--

"Banjo I, I can't anymore, this "adventure" was a terrible experience, I highly doubt that Lord of Games guy was just boring." Kazooie told him.

"Well I mean there's always more opportunity for-"

"No, no more "opportunity" that was eight years ago and after the fiascos of facing the same witch three times the apes cut off contact, the squirrel is a depressed mess, and poker with Mumbo and worms warts isn't cutting it no more." Kazooie said.

"But Kazooie we're-" Banjo stopped after Kazooie flew off.

"Friends forever." He said as Kazooie flew off.

--Unknown location--

MetaKnight flew the ship through fog yet saw that he'd have to land the Halberd down in the swampy area until the fog could clear up.

He then walked into the barracks.

"Hello everyone, I have landed the Halberd because of the fog outside, until it clears we are to look for more heroes to join us on our quest." MetaKnight said as everyone else groaned.

"C'mon MetaKnight, we got Mike, isn't he good enough?" Blade Knight asked.

"Plus how're we going to feed that many more people?" Sword Knight added.

"That's also why we're going out, we're getting supplies.

The group then walked out into the swampy bogs and saw a pond with a monkey floating within.

"Should we... Talk with him or something?" Ellie asked.

"If you must know his name is Pat Fusty." A mysterious woman's voice said.

A monkey with a shining gold aura, a cape and white fur with her hair in a ponytail descended to them.

"And I am Adora." She said.

"Talking Monkeys, am I going insane?" Mike asked.

"I assume you're not from here, none of you are." Adora said.

"Well you'd be correct, Sword, Blade, and I are from Dreamland, Mike here is from a place called Albuquerque, a city in a land known as New Mexico." MetaKnight explained.

"New Mexico is a state in the US." Mike said.

"Ellie, Henry, and I are from the US as well, there's kinda no exact point where we live." Charles said scratching the back of his head.

"I assume that those are different planes of the multiverse, there was one earlier today in Monkey Meadows." Adora said.

"Well welcome to Pat's Pond, currently we're on a mission to stop bloons from leaking through." Adora said.

"Bloons?" The group asked.

"Annoying rubbery pests that float everywhere." Adora said.

"Wait, are you talking about balloons?" Mike asked.

"Is that what you call them?" She asked while side-eyeing Mike.

"Yes, and I don't need a monkey to-"

"You dare insult a Sun Goddess!" Adora yelled as her eyes glew a golden yellow.

"No, no, I apologize for my friend's words, he's never seen a godly being before." MetaKnight said putting himself between the man and the monkey.

"Plus he's an old man of course he's stubborn." Ellie laughed.

"Anyways... We'd be glad to help fight off any bloons from this place." MetaKnight said.

"Good, I hope you can put yourselves to good use." Adora said as a group of red bloons floated to the pond.

MetaKnight immediately rushed them, rapidly slashing through each one with ease.

"Hm, impressive, I've seen other heroes perform well with melee attacks, especially Pat and Sauda." Adora said as she wondered how Sauda and Ezili were doing in their mission in Bloody Puddles as no bloons were showing up and the monkeys there had been MIA for a few hours now.

-Bloody Puddles-

Mania was admiring his work, some R.O.Bs helped yes, but just to the machines, and it worked for Black-Cat's plan.

He saw a purple monkey with an X on her forehead holding a staff, she was next to a monkey with an eye scar holding swords.

Two heroes to these monkeys and what the bloons would see powerful of the company to the company.

They came across a destroyed tack shooter before seeing a submarine float upwards, it showed signs of being sealed on the top and holes that were too small for the monkey to get out but enough to drown them.

"What kind of bloon would do this?" Sauda asked.

"Bloons? No they couldn't, not even the bosses could pull something off like this, this is obviously the work of something more sinister." Ezili said sighing and placing her hand on the submarine with respect for a fallen soldier.

"I do apologize for how my army handled it, should've had Shadow Man handle it, he probably would've done something more sensible." Black-Cat said stepping down.

The monkeys took their stances and prepared for battle.

"Oh, again introductions, I'm Mr. Black-Cat, and you are?" He asked.

"I'm Sauda and she's Ezili, and you have to the count of ten before we pop you like a bloon."

"Ten too long, I'm on a busy schedule so I suppose we fight now." Black-Cat said drawing his swords as well.

Sauda immediately rushed him as Ezili prepared to use some voodoo magic.

"Let the darkness-"

"Boo!" Mania yelled wrapping his arm around Ezili's staff.

Sauda swiped her sword as Black-Cat blocked it.

She then blocked his own advance before parrying and jumping back.

"Assa jiryeotdari!" She yelled as she leaped up and slammed her swords as she aimed for Mr. Black-Cat, who dodged and ran to slash her as his sword glowed purple and became fiery.

She limboed the slash before pulling her swords out of the ground and performing a backwards summersault and getting back on her feet.

She took a deep breath and did her sword charge towards Black-Cat who sidestepped off the track and slashed her in the back.

Purple crystals then began forming on Sauda's back causing her to scream as her skin began to turn into rock.

Mania forced Ezili to watch as her ally became nothing more than stone.

"You, you're a dark one as well?" Ezili asked.

Black-Cat immediately slashed her in the stomach making Mania flinch as he was unprepared.

"Carry her Mania, I'll take the sword monkey." Black-Cat said with spite towards the purple monkey.

--Unknown location--

"Well you two, welcome... To monkey city!" Quincy yelled.

Monkey City was a bustling place full of factories, farms and general infrastructure for housing or just restaurants.

In the middle however, there was a building that seemed to be where everything was built upon.

"Is that the capital?" Phil asked.

"Oh, yeah, it's also the hero base, I can take you there, but we should lay low, fans get crazy." Quincy said.

"Fans?" Gumball asked.

"Yeah I'm a total celebrity here." Quincy said as a group of monkeys approached him yelling his name and claiming they're his biggest fans.

"Oh, speak of the DDT, look just go, Psi will know I sent you guys." Quincy said getting a pen from his bag.

The two rushed to the building seeing the sights such as a bank, a shop with TVs on display showing an ad for fighting the bloons.

Soon the two made it to the black building, it reminded Gumball of an anime with a bald dude who was super strong, it didn't help that Phil looked like him in casual clothes.

Gumball knocked and they were let in by monkeys in suits and sunglasses.

They then went up an elevator and saw five monkeys, one who had a green commander's uniform and a mustache, one who had blue fur, one was in a blue Marine commander's uniform, one was much shorter than the rest and wore a helmet and casual clothes, finally one with golden fur and many dots on their head.

"Um, hey?" Gumball said awkwardly.

"Eh, hey just who in the sam hill are-" the mustached monkey was cut off by the golden one, however he was quite military like in his voice too.

"They're fine, Quincy let them in." They said, they're voice echoed, and was quite child-like.

"Of course, bloody kid's letting anyone in here like it's an attraction." The short one said scoffing with a British accent.

"Is no one going to talk about what's strange about them, neither of them are monkeys and that one is very... strange." The Marine said as she gestured to Phil.

Quincy then got in and was out of breath.

"Hey guys, sorry I'm late, fans love em' but they can be too much." Quincy said.

"Well mate, who are these guys?" The commander said.

"Oh, guys meet Gumball and Phil, Gumball, Phil meet Striker Jones, Captain Churchill, Admiral Brickell, and Psi." Quincy said introducing the two to the mustached monkey, the short British one, the Marine, and the golden child respectively.

Psi then gasped making everyone look at them.

"What is it kiddo?" Jones asked.

"Sauda, Ezili, they're in pain, scared, lost yet stuck, they can't move." Psi said.

Gumball then remembered what Z told him, not dead just in stasis.

"I think I know who did this." He said confidently.

Everyone's attention went from Psi to him.

"They're crystalized, like if they were turned to stone but their souls are still active." Gumball said remembering what Z told him.

"So it's like petrification." Brickell said.

"Yeah but, I guess it's a crystal around them thing." Gumball said.

"Wait how do you know that?" Striker Jones asked.

"It's a personal matter for him." Psi said.

They looked at him then at Psi and nodded in agreement.

"Well then, who's behind it?" Churchill asked.

"The guy who runs Black-Cat Industries, I haven't met the guy but his minions seem to want to kill me more than anyone else I've met." Gumball said.

"Last time they had a bunch of flaming skeletons on a car driven by a zombie with some sort of Rock monster calling the shots." Phil said.

"So we have a bullseye on the targets?" Brickell asked.

"Yeah pretty much." Phil said as outside of the building Metal had spied on them.

"Sit, I've found Gumball and Eggtree, currently they're talking to what I can consider to be the heroes of the universe." Metal said.

"Well Rocky and I are busy with Operation Game Over, I know, a generic name but it's effective." Shadow Man said back to him.

"Should I get the other boys and engage?" Metal asked.

"Sure, just make sure you make them fear our wrath." Shadow Man said as Metal called the boys.

--unknown location--

Shadow Man and Rocky were in a factory for games being made.

"'Ello?" Rocky said as his voice echoed with the pipes.

"Who dares to chime, for it's my break time." A gravely voice said.

Shadow Man and Rocky then saw her, the witch they were supposed to free.

"So you're Gruntilda?" Shadow Man asked.

"Why yes, only the best." She said while bowing.

Next to her there was a cat's skeleton.

"Oi uh, why's that there?" Rocky asked.

"Oh, she's had nothing to eat for fifteen years more or less.

"Jeez, guess there's no cat in the bag, not anymore." Shadow Man said trying to bring light to the situation.

"That wasn't bloody funny mate." Rocky said as Shadow Man looked down with a cartoonishly sad face.

"Look were here to free you from this factory so you can work with us on the Cat and the boy, or fish and the ghost, or-"

"I think she gets it mate." Rocky said cutting Shadow Man off.

"I see, but I shall ask what's in it for me?" Gruntilda asked.

"Simple, a place to sleep, plenty to eat, stuff like that." Shadow Man said as a TV man floated in.

"What the, who are you two-" Shadow Man shot it multiple times, he then smiled before Rocky shot it and indefinitely killed it.

"Y-you two just killed the Lord of Games." Grunty said.

Shadow Man disregarded what she said and pulled out a ray gun.

"Okay this is very experimental but I do think it will work." Shadow Man said pointing it at her and firing.

She screamed as the boney mech soon became flesh, basically she's back to her original Banjo Kazooie design.

"Bullseye." Shadow Man said before getting zapped and turned into a frog.

"Hon hon, why am I a french accented fro- wait, oh baguette." Shadow Man said as he pulled out a cigarette, he had a berret and a French Handlebar Mustache.

Grunty then ran off and opened a portal back to her lair while cackling.

"Well shit." Rocky said.

"Indeed monsieur." Shadow Man said still smoking his cigarette.

"Choke a croissant." Rocky said showing his contempt to the French.

-Spiral Mountain-

Banjo continued strumming his banjo before seeing something come from the Gruntilda faced mountain side that rebuilt Spiral Mountain's bridge.

Banjo then ran outside with Darwin, Carrie, and Penny in tow.

"Ehehehehe, well well, if it isn't the fat bear, to step up to Grunty, do you dare?" She said, cackling.

"Grunty, but how did you-"

"I see you're not so dim, for I'm my original self again.

Grunty then looked at Penny and sensed the magic in her

"My my, what beauty, what grace! Grunty will take her and her pretty face!" Gruntilda yelled as she swooped down and grabbed Penny and carried her away.

"Penny!" Darwin and Carrie yelled.

"Oh no, Grunty's back!" Banjo yelled.

"Who's Grunty?" Darwin asked as Gruntilda flew back to the mountain.

"Long, long story." Banjo said as he looked at a burrow nearby.

He walked up to it and looked down.

"Bottles?" He said inside the burrow as a mole with glasses popped beneath his feet making him fall.

"*Brbrbrrb* eh? Banjo, issat you?" Bottles asked while adjusting his glasses.

"Why, it is you, how's it been old friend?" Bottles asked.

"Not good, the new friends I made, one of them got captured by Gruntilda, and Grunty's back, again!" Banjo yelled.

Bottles gasped then noticed no squawking.

"Where's Bird Brain?" He asked.

"Oh, she left, I don't know where she is." Banjo said while scratching his arm.

Bottles then looked at Darwin and Carrie and something clicked.

-Pat's Pond-

MetaKnight had popped many bloons now having dealt with the last one before the next round he slashed yet it pushed back.

It was a metallic bloon.

Adora quickly dealt with it by shooting sun beams at one breaking the metal and allowing MetaKnight to slice through the rest of the bloons.

"Thank you Goddess." MetaKnight said before bowing.

Mike then shot a metal bloon instantly popping it and all the inner layers making Adora's jaw drop.

"H-how, what's an old geezer like you doing with a weapon capable of breaking lead bloons." She said angered.

"Oh quit being a brat and help the knight whose breaking his back for the honor of a goddess." Mike said smugly.

Adora pouted and floated in front of MetaKnight and used The Long Arm of Light and destroyed all the Bloons that came their way.

MetaKnight stood in awe and looked at Adora.

"Sun goddess-"

"Please Adora is fine."

"My apologies, Adora, with your power of the sun, I believe that you can help us in our quest to help a duo of heroes to defeat Black-Cat Industries and Mr. Black-Cat." MetaKnight said.

"I see, who is this Mr. Black-Cat you're fighting?" Adora asked.

"A bloody sick twisted mind if his machines are anything to talk about." Sword Knight said.

"He was about to murder Henry even when he used his spirit." Ellie said.

"Yeah, he's also got a sick sense of artistry." Mike said in a semi-joking way.

"He made Mike's boss into a statue, sadistic." MetaKnight said in disgust.

"He's willing to do the same to you and whoever you're working with." Charles said.

"That's awful." Adora said.

"Indeed, and we need all the help we can get." MetaKnight said.

Adora thought about it and decided that even if she'd have to be around Mike, it's a necessary pain that has to be done to possibly save the monkeys.

"Alright, I'll help, but we need to take care of the ZOMG that will come by in about, fifty two rounds." Adora said.

"And I regret joining you guys." Mike said.

-Gravel, NM-

Smiley ventured around the fort and found a staircase leading her to a room with a man in a helmet, goggle, and overalls.

"Hold on there girlie, let me get you a red thing to put on." The man said, he had a Texan accent.

He threw a red bandana to her.

Smiley wrapped it around her forehead.

"Howdy, I'm the Engineer." The engineer said.

"I'm Smiley, why'd I have to put the bandana on?" She asked with curiosity.

"That, right in the corner." Engineer said.

He pointed at a little machine with a barrel.

"Aw, it's kinda cute." Smiley said.

"Yeah, 'till it shoots ya." Engineer laughed.

"What."

"It's a gun, an automatic, auto-seeking, and auto-killing gun." Engineer said.

Smiley immediately left and went to the restock station.

In there she bumped into Heavy.

"Oh, little girl, Heavy sees that you're in a state of stress, I take it you saw Pyro or Doctor." Heavy said.

"No, just saw a robot gun." Smiley said fastly while shaking.

"Oh, Engineer's building, yes quite frightening at first but still helpful, Heavy thinks you should begin first part of training." He said before handing Smiley a shotgun.

Meanwhile Phred was with Sniper and bored, he hadn't felt this bored since school, before the aliens.

"Hey so, is there like anything I can do here?" Phred asked.

"Staying bloody quiet would be nice." Sniper said before having an idea to get one less kid in his bonnet.

"Say, how'd you like to fire a gun?" Sniper asked.

"Hm, at what?" Phred asked.

"These bloody BLU blokes." Sniper said

"Well hand something to me, I need something now otherwise my character development is down the drain." Phred said to a confused Sniper.

"Just shoot the damn thing, and always aim for the heads." Sniper explained before firing at a rival sniper.

He then saw a rocket jumping BLU soldier that was then headshotted by Phred.

"What in the bloody hell!" Sniper yelled before looking at Phred.

"Kid did you kill a bloody soldier?" Sniper asked.

"I guess so, I just aimed for his head." Phred said shocked of himself.

He never killed anyone before, this was a true first, his hands were shaking.

Sniper saw this and decided to reassure the kid.

"Look kid, I was like you when I got my first kill, but that kill saved my life, and you bloody saved our lives." Sniper said as he put his hand on Phred's shoulder.

In the stairwell to the sewers of two fort Pyro was playing with Zack before seeing Medic and Soldier.

"Mphmph, mphmphmmm." They said joyfully.

"Oh, Pyro, what's that boy doing with you?" Medic asked.

"He seems to be on fire, what's with that FIREBOY?" Soldier asked pointing down at Zack.

"I'm Zack first off, and it's a story involving aliens and planet destroying." Zack said after being reminded of Vizion.

"Ah, a surgery perhaps?" Medic asked Zack.

"Well I was in an everlasting cold before this, but a super weapon sucked it from me and shot it into a space ship, so I guess it was kind of a surgery." Zack said while shrugging.

"Ah, I see, so you were cold but after the aliens used it all you became hot, in the elemental sense." Medic said.

Zack nodded before hearing footsteps and out of fear grabbed Pyro's axe and threw it, hitting a blue masked man.

"Well what do we have here, a Frenchie." Soldier said.

"Ugh, Meirda." The French man said.

Pyro then set him on fire as he screamed.

Zack averted his eyes as he knew what this was, this was a group of mercenaries killing another group of mercenaries.

He hoped that Smiley and Phred were at least able to cope with the idea of killing people, especially if they're attacking them, but he also hoped that that wouldn't have to happen, especially to Smiley.

-gravel NM-

Z and Ridley were in the blue fortress with Sonic the (not) Hedgehog, Mega, and Stuart.

"So BLU team, would you be satisfied with the payment of Black-Cat for the new machine you've built for us?" Z asked.

The team looked at each other and then at the team.

"Yep, thanks for your patronage." The BLU Engineer said as they looked at the machine girl, she had blue hair, a skirt, one gun hand, and two blue lights, one on her head and one on her face.

She turned on and grinned a sharp tooth smile.

"Awooga!" Sonic yelled before Z slapped the back of his head.

"Oh, Sonic, Stuart, Metal needs our help on a new attack plan." Mega said.

"Wanna join us in killing someone and somethings?" Sonic asked.

The machine girl nodded and smiled.

"Alright, hmm, I'll call you Mimi, how's that?" Sonic asked as he was reminded of how he gave Rocky's nickname.

Mimi nodded and beeped in approval.

Mega then opened a portal to the top of a building.

They were ready to attack whoever Metal would tell them to kill and maim.

The boys and Mimi hopped in and the portal closed.

Ridley then turned to the BLU team.

"How about another offer, you can join us and get paid much more, possibly one billion for each of you." He said.

Then the BLU soldier and spy came back.

The team discussed it and the Spy went to Ridley.

"We're in." He said.

A grin formed on Ridley's face knowing that the more who hunt the kids down, the easier it would be to get one Billion of his or their currency, and there'll be one less block in Black-Cat's way.

"Bullseye."

Chapter Text

-Bloonarius Prime-

Black-Cat approached the green streams of Bloonarius Prime seeing the bloons on the pathway.

"So boss, we're really going to talk with balloons?" Mania asked while carrying Ezili's crystalized body.

"Why yes Mania, I'm going to strike up a deal with them." Black-Cat said.

"Boss, not to be a smart-ass but I don't think you can solve everything with deals." Mania said.

"Of course not every problem, but many."

"You also can't throw money at said problems."

"Ha, yes you can Mania, you can pay an engineer to fix something and for enough they'll work enough."

"And if they can't fix it?"

"Buy a replacement and pay someone to install it."

"Fair, but that's with something replaceable, what about life?" Mania asked philosophical like.

"Mania you and I both know that you don't value life, but even then I have an old hypothetical, say someone offered a kid to shoot his Dad in the leg for one million dollars, and the kid declines, but the money goes up the more he declines, five million, fifteen million, one hundred million, eventually the Dad will beg to be shot, the moral is that money overcomes morals when enough is on the table." Black-Cat said as he and Mania arrived to four blimps.

One that was black with green stripes, another being blue with black stripes, a third being two connected blimps, and a fourth being a yellow and black blimp with a drill tip.

Then in the middle of them all was a green and red blimp showing a propeller.

It blew air at the business man and the tentacle monster.

Black-Cat then used a telemension to summon an R.O.B to translate.

"Oh great Bloonarius The Inflator, my friend and I bring you gifts. gifts for all your kind's suffering!" Black-Cat said presenting Ezili and Sauda as trophies.

Bloonarius blew some more hot air.

The R.O.B began translating and made a *ding* sound.

"You dare to insult us with our enemies?" The R.O.B machine asked in place of the leader of bloons.

"No, see they're petrified, unable to move, they're reduced to trophies." Black-Cat said.

Bloonarius let out another gust.

"They are interested."

"Well I think that if you attack Monkey City it shall fall, but you must make sure that you end a blue ca-"

Another gust.

"We aren't interested in your mindless killings, we simply see that the monkeys fight us because they're territorial, but we can still eventually get through and leak."

Black-Cat was about to say one more thing but was hit with the heaviest gust of wind from both Bloonarius and the blue and black blimp.

He didn't need a translator for that.

"Fine then, I'll be back, and I'll destroy both Monkeys and Bloons!" Black-Cat yelled as he and Mania walked away with the statues.

"How'd you make a robot that can understand wind?" Mania asked.

-Monkey City-

The kids and heroes continued to talk about the next move.

However during the conversation Gumball's ear twitched as he heard something in the vents.

That's before the window was broken into by the Plated Preformer, Metal.

"Why hello ladies and gentlemen, tis' I metal, your host, with my cohorts..." Metal said while pausing and waiting.

"Ahem, WITH MY COHORTS!" He yelled as the scurrying became more noticable.

"Sonic!"

"Mega!"

"Ba-Caw!"

"Beep!"

"Hey who's the new one?" Gumball asked.

"Gumball who are these guys?" Phil asked.

"That's Metal, he's Sonic, he's Mega, and they are Stuart." Gumball said.

"And our new arrival is Mimi, a full on walking gun." Sonic said doing the Titanic pose on a table.

"Get off the table Son." Striker Jones said pointing his rocket launcher at Sonic.

"I'd like to see you try it." Sonic said before spin dashing at Jones.

This alerted the other boys and Mimi to attack.

Mega started phasing through walls, Metal pulled monitors, Stuart started running, and Mimi began doing acrobatics.

"They're preparing something troops, stay on your feet!" Jones yelled while attempting to bash the hedgehog.

"Don't worry, nothing gets past-" Quincy was stopped by Sonic being right in front of him.

"Heh, nothing you say?" Sonic asked before punching the monkey.

"Quincy!" Gumball yelled before Metal nearly hit him with a monitor.

"Ugh, why are you able to dodge these so easily!" Metal yelled.

"Maybe because they're slow!" Gumball yelled as he drew his sword and jumped off the wall.

"And your over reliance of drama!" He yelled before using the sword as a jumping board.

He then accidentally caught a box in mid-air.

"Huh, what happens if I..." Gumball said before throwing it at Sonic who also dodged.

"Hey, he's right they are slow." Sonic said to Metal who groaned before being hit by a bullet from the Admiral.

"Gah, stupid monkey!" Metal yelled.

"Heh, take it and leave it rust-brains." Brickell said before getting jumped by Stuart.

Mimi meanwhile was taking pop shots at Phil and Psi while seemingly laughing before dodging a rocket from the Striker.

She then focused on him and rapidly fired shots at him as he flipped a table over and took cover.

"Oi, o'er 'ere ya bloody tosser!" Churchill yelled while holding a machine gun he took from his tank.

"Hey, you uh, got a license for that?" Metal asked.

"Why yes actually, by the Queen!" Churchill yelled before firing at the whole place.

He had hit Metal, Mimi, and even knicked Sonic.

That's when a backwards long jumping Mega hit the machine gun from underneath, making Churchill loose his footing and fall to the floor making Stuart peck him.

"Hey clucker, EAT ROCKET!" Striker Jones yelled fireing a rocket at the pink chicken.

Stuart looked at it like a deer in headlights and then swallowed it and shot an egg at the monkey.

Jones and Brickell look-

"Admiral!" Brickell yelled pointing a gun at the uh, nervous Narrator, yes.

Admiral Brickell and Jones looked at the egg which begun to shake making everyone duck and cover before it exploded.

"Hey guys why did we sto-AAAAAAAAAHHHHH!" Mega was blown away by said explosion and fell into a factory.

"Time out, what kind of factory is that?" Metal asked.

"Spike." Churchill said as Mega's screams echoed throughout the city.

"I forget, is that the one with White hot spikes or just something like fast production or smart spikes?" Churchill said.

"It burns!" Mega yelled.

"Definitely white hot, but I think it's also MOAB shredding." Jones said.

"Okay one sec." Sonic said as he took a phone out.

"Hello Skully, ya there?" He asked. "Alright yeah, Mega's in a spike pit, if you could teleport him outta that-, what's that? Oh you're on it, nice." Sonic had a full conversation on the phone.

"Okay he's done, now back to kicking you guys down." Sonic said before he, Mimi, and Stuart jumped back with the latter two aiming their weapons, or in Stuart's case his ass, at Gumball and the monkeys.

Sonic then saw Quincy getting up and sped up to him.

"Heh, I guess messages don't get through your head, maybe a kick to the face can teach ya." Sonic said with a spoonful of snark mixed in.

Quincy glanced down and smirked.

"Go ahead and kick me, you blue blur." Quincy said making Sonic mad.

"Don't call me that!" He yelled as he tried to pull out his leg, however it was entrapped in vines with blue brambles on it slowly stabbing into his legs.

"Gah!" Sonic went in pain before seeing Quincy's bow with an explosive arrow on it.

"Like I said." Quincy said as Sonic's eye widened. "Nothing gets past my bow." He then shot Sonic in the head blowing it out the window.

His body then was teleported out.

Mimi and Stuart were covered in the same brambles with them mainly making an attempt to restrain them.

"Well would you look who finally came." Striker Jones said.

"Sorry we're late." A female voice said.

"Oh, Gumball Phil I guess you guys didn't meet everyone, this is Gwen,"

"Sup." Gwen greeted.

"This is Ben,"

"That's short for Benjamin by the way." Benjamin said before shaking Gumball and Phil's hands.

"The goggled guy is Etienne," Quincy said.

"Quincy calme, bonjor." Etienne introduced himself.

"And-"

"I am Obyn, a guardian of the forest and I apologize for our delayed arrival, I had heard from Psi and had to find the others because..."

"He's not used to the place." Benjamin said jokingly.

That's when Gumball noticed that Metal was gone.

'Robotic coward.' He thought as Mimi and Stuart were teleported away.

But Metal didn't run away from the area, just the battle.

He flew through it and found it, another powerful gem, a quartz, it was white at least, he didn't know if it was another emerald one of those emeralds but it did feel like one so he took it and that's when he teleported back.

-Spiral Mountain- -Gruntilda's lair-

Rocky and Shadow Man the frog were sneaking through the lair.

"Don't worry mate, I'll get you back to your ol' self again." Rocky said while carrying Shadow Man on his head.

"Thank you monsieur, and I'm surprised you haven't said anything about me for five minutes now.' Shadow Man said as he was still a frog in both ways.

"Yeah, actually can you get off my head because your bloody body oder is killing me mate!" Rocky yelled.

"There it is, I forgive you my friend." Shadow Man said before hopping off.

Suddenly they heard cackling making Shadow Man hide away.

It was Gruntilda holding a jar with a mouse inside.

"My my, what a mess, but this place is what I'll bless." Grunty said as she waved her wand which began to fix things.

There was also a reptile thing summoned with it all.

"Hello Klungo." She said while smacking her wand with her palm.

"M-m-mistress?" Klungo asked, scared for his life.

Rocky saw the conversation then looked at Shadow Man.

He was cowering like a pansy.

"Oi, quit being a cheese eating surrender monkey and start moving." He whispered.

Outside Bottles was trying to teach Darwin and Carrie new moves to...

Less than expected prevail.

"Alright kid just throw it and make it come back!" He yelled trying to get Darwin to perform the new move Hammer-rang.

Darwin held the hammer and begun spinning before releasing it and throwing it.

"Now let it come to you." Bottles said trying to guide Darwin.

Darwin held his hand out and made the hammer start to come back to him.

"Yes woo ho-" Bottles cheered too early because as he hit the hoo, he was hit by the hammer.

"Oh, sorry." Darwin said.

Banjo had watched this and sighed.

He then looked at his house then ran in, he then got to a dial phone and started punching in the numbers for the finder's line.

"Hello?"

"Hi could you help me find... Kazooie?" Banjo asked nervously.

"Currently she's in Mumbo's Mountain." The operator said.

Banjo then went back outside.

"Alright new plan, we go into the lair and get Kazooie in Mumbo's Mountain." Banjo said.

"Kawhooie?" Darwin asked.

"Just follow me!" Banjo said while running.

Darwin followed the honey bear to the bridge.

Carrie phased through the mountain to the top before the others made it.

"So that evil lair is where your friend is too?" Darwin asked.

"Not exactly." Banjo said.

-Pat's Pond-

MetaKnight had finished chopping up a pair of regrow rainbow bloons.

"So I take this part of the fight when we take it to a turning point for the bloons changing strategy?" MetaKnight asked.

"Yes, that MOAB." Adora said pointing at the blue blimp.

It slowly came towards the group.

MetaKnight was the first one to dash towards it and started slashing the flesh of the blimp.

After destroying it four ceramic bloons flew out as Mike and Adora took pop shots with Mike obliterating all the layers.

Adora took longer but she did pop them.

However a red blimp started floating through the path.

"What the- there should've been at least twenty more rounds before facing a BFB!" Adora yelled as her eyes widened.

MetaKnight then used Drill Rush on it shredding the BFB and everything inside of it.

"Victory is our destiny." He said after landing.

"He is quite the determined one, is he?" Adora asked.

"Yep, never gives up on a fight." Mike said as he shot a bloon that almost snuck by.

Adora watched as MetaKnight shredded through the bloons but then saw that Pat wasn't in his pond.

"Pat... Fusty?" She asked.

She also noticed that the two knights were also gone.

"Sir MetaKnight, have you noticed that your knights have mysteriously disappeared.

MetaKnight sliced through one last bloon.

"What?" He asked before he started looking for the two.

"Eh, they probably didn't get too far, Ellie, Henry, Charlie, you three help me find em'." Mike said

The stickmen nodded and followed Mike out of the swamp.

Adora then looked at the knight.

"Thank you for your assistance, I apologize if I scared you." She said.

"It is an honor to serve a goddess in any way for a knight, and a Star Warrior's dream, few have fought for, let alone by a goddess." MetaKnight said before bowing.

This made Adora's cheeks turn pink.

Suddenly the two encountered a B.A.D, a purple blimp that had two angry eyes.

"Hmph, another insulting display of a weak-" MetaKnight was interrupted by an explosion of the BAD blimp.

"Oh, was that you?" MetaKnight asked.

"Nope!" A familiar voice said.

From the flames came Ridley, with the Blu Soldier and Demoman.

"Aye, it's a blueberry and an albino monkey." The Demoman said.

"Just shoot them." Ridley said.

"Sir yes Sir!" The soldier yelled before firing a rocket at the duo.

They dodged it and nodded to each other.

MetaKnight retreated into the forest making Ridley chase him.

"You two are mine." Adora said as her eyes glowed

-2Fort, Gravel, New Mexico-

Phred and Sniper waited outside of the fort watching for any and all possible attacks.

That's when Heavy and Smiley walked over to them.

"Little girl and I will attack BLU fort." He said.

"Alright."

Heavy and Smiley left the fort.

Smiley shakily held her gun as they walked across the bridge.

She then stepped on a stick and pulled the trigger.

The shotgun fired multiple pellets and hit the metal fortress.

"Calm down, gun is dangerous and deadly, yes, but to use it correctly requires patience, inner peace, and well planned aim, among other things." Heavy said as he placed his hands on her shoulders.

He then made her correctly hold the gun.

"Think of shooting at something you hate." He said.

Smiley closed her eyes and thought of things that made her sad, but then she realized that she needed to be mad then thought of that, but she'd need to be calm.

She then heard a voice lingering in her mind.

"Dead parents."

It was British.

"Wonder who's behind that?" It said again.

She opened her eyes seeing Rocky standing in front of her dead parents, that sound, the awful sound of bones crushed by rock echoed in her skull.

"Die." She whispered.

She then cocked the gun and pulled the trigger again firing at the rock monster, over and over, as the whispers became statements and soon became yelling.

Heavy watched as she reloaded it and fired again repeatedly shooting straight.

"Okay, that's good." Heavy said before putting a hand on her shoulder making her freeze.

She stopped and started crying.

She then hugged Heavy and started sobbing.

"Shh, it's okay, you are safe with Heavy., heavy has you." Heavy said consoling the child in his arms.

Suddenly something broke through the bridge.

It then collapsed with them falling into water.

Heavy started swimming towards the Red sewer pipe while carrying Smiley.

"Hwah hwah hwah, Get them Kremling crew!" King K. Rool yelled before firing again.

Multiple Kremlings started diving into the water with some small blue crocodiles jumping with them.

"Yes chew them out my little blue crocodiles, chew them to bits!" K. Rool yelled enthusiastically.

Heavy got into the pipe and lifted Smiley up making her cough up water.

"Go, Heavy will hold off reptiles." Heavy said.

Smiley nodded and ran off.

Heavy then took out Sasha, his minigun, and started revving it up but not shooting.

"Run away and cry before I shred you for next sandvich!" He yelled.

K. Rool laughed. "Kill him." He said before glass broke near his feet covering him with yellow stuff.

"What the?" He tasted it and it tasted like piss, not like Swiss Miss instant piss, but actual piss.

He began to gag before hearing laughter on the other side.

"Aye, enjoying the fresh lemonade ya wanker?" Sniper asked as Phred was on the floor dying of laughter.

What could they say, covering a croc with piss is funny ain't it?

-Gruntilda's lair-

Banjo, Carrie, and Darwin snuck into the lair of the witch, the latter two were following the bear through the decrepit browns and sick greens before making it to a lively painting labeled Mumbo's Mountain.

"Ready?" Banjo asked.

Darwin and Carrie nodded before they jumped in with him.

They made it to -Mumbo's Mountain- and began their quest to save Penny.

The mountains were fairly grassy with a giant mound of dirt far off.

Banjo ran after it.

"Hello?" He yelled as red feathers softly fell down by them.

A red bird landed down.

"Kazooie, been a while huh?" Banjo asked.

"Well look who it is, the fat bear, lemme guess you drove here?" Kazooie said with sass.

"No actually, but I need your help Kazooie, these two's friend was taken, by Gruntilda, and she's younger, well not a skeleton anymore, anyhow the point is that they need our help." Banjo said with a great amount of sincerity.

"Really, Banjo Gruntilda's been in a game factory for fifteen years now, you really think saying that can bring us back together, you've got another thing coming." Kazooie said.

"Then how about you step out of here, and into Grunty's lair?" Banjo demanded.

"Fine but I assure you that she's gone-" Kazooie was then teleported out of then back into the level. "For... good." She said shakily.

Kazooie hung her head low and sighed.

She then, without any exchange of words, hopped in the backpack.

"Well Honey-head, we saving the girl or what?" She asked.

The four then went back to the lair whilst surrounded by multiple minions.

"Well I guess our cover's blown." Carrie said.

Darwin then drew his hammer and threw it at one of the ogre goblin things.

It hit one and flew past the others making the others laugh at how dumb that was.

"Wow nice aim Goldie." One of them laughed.

Thanks but that wasn't my only target. Darwin said while holding his hand out.

The hammer came back as it hit one of the minions while ricocheting off each of them before returning to Darwin's hand.

"Hey I actually did it, I did it!" Darwin yelled in excitement.

"You did it!" Carrie yelled as she hugged him.

"Ya did it." Banjo said while nodding.

"He did what?" Rocky whispered to Shadow Man.

"I think he threw his hammer like a boomerang of your cousin's." Shadow Man said still stuck with the french accent.

"Bloody hell, I'm not related to any spider loving islanders mate." Rocky defended.

-Pat's Pond-

MetaKnight was being chased by Ridley throughout the pond whilst maneuvering away from fireballs.

He then hid within the trees and took a breath.

"MetaKnight?" Mike asked standing next to him.

"Mr. Ehrmantraut, I'm glad to see you." MetaKnight said.

The two slid down the tree like firemen and took a breather.

MetaKnight then looked at the flashes of light in the swamp.

"Hopefully the sun goddess is tearing through them." MetaKnight said as Mike inches closer and pulled out a butterfly knife.

He then tried to stab MetaKnight's back before MetaKnight used, what else, the dimensional cape before gutting Mike.

"Tried pulling a fast one me?" MetaKnight asked as the bleeding Mike became the BLU Spy.

"What a surprise, I appear to have underestimated your skill, k-niget." The Spy said.

He then became invisible and started laughing as MetaKnight looked around before getting jumped by zombies.

Two brown coats tried grabbing but thankfully for the knight he sliced them both.

Unfortunately he found himself in a cloud of purple smoke that smelt of rotting flesh.

He immediately shuttle looped and hopped on a tree branch.

He coughed a little bit afterwards and started breathing heavily before hearing the sound of wood being hit by something hard before seeing a football lodged in the tree.

He looked down and saw a zombie in a football player's uniform holding a minigun that seemed adjusted for firing footballs.

MetaKnight flew at him before using a sword beam attack and cutting the gun in half.

As he flew towards the all-star he felt something hit his wing making him lose his balance and land.

He saw that it was a ball sticking to his cape.

The knight started to shake it before it exploded with purple electricity on him, the impact shot him to a tree as a mech walked up to him and picked him up.

Inside was an imp laughing at him as more zombies gathered around him with Ridley.

Meanwhile just outside of the fight scene was Mike with Ellie, Charles, and Henry who were standing behind multiple trees.

"So knight before I kill you, why, why'd you become a charity case, a job without a reward?" Ridley asked.

"Y-you wish to know, fine, I chose this job originally for the recognition and glory, which yes I gained, but it was just a reward, a transaction, and when I saw that those like you... Slaughtering innocents, destroying families, disgusting acts of degeneracy upon them, I thought my image would strike fear into a monster, instead it just was nothing, to defend others for yourself is to be prepared to run when things go south, but to fight, for loved ones, the ones who are considered weak, and so anyone else experiencing this kind of oppression that monsters like you and Black-Cat can be inspired to fight back." MetaKnight said breathing heavily.

Ridley laughed.

"I'll make sure that's paraphrased on your tombstone." Ridley said before raising his tail before hearing a gunshot and the shattering of glass before seeing the imp that was holding the knight drop dead.

He snarled. "What the hell!"

Mike then walked into the open with the stickmen in tow.

"Well well." Ridley said. "Whatcha doing fighting dragons grandpa?" He asked while aiming his tail.

"Just let the damn blueberry go." Mike said while aiming his gun.

"Ha, you think that peashooter can kill me?" Ridley asked.

"No, but I knew it would distract you." Mike said.

Ridley then saw that the knight was gone.

"Fool!" MetaKnight yelled as he slashed the dragon's mechanical tail replacement.

MetaKnight was then back with the stickmen and Mike.

As he was back with them the soldier and demoman were blasted off to the zombies and Ridley.

Adora then floated down to MetaKnight's group.

"Hello again goddess." MetaKnight said.

Ridley gripped his tail as the Blu spy decloaked.

"So what's our next plan of action?" The Spy asked.

"Just wait, there's something coming up for them." Ridley snickered.

As he said that the sky started to redden.

"Ha, there it is." He said.

"What's going on?" Adora asked.

MetaKnight froze as one word exited from underneath his mask.

"... Black-Cat."

-2-fort, Gravel, New Mexico-

Heavy was firing the minigun killing multiple Kremlings at a fast pace.

As he did Smiley ran and saw Zack, Medic, Pyro, and Soldier.

"Uh, guys we have alligators." She said.

Immediately the others ran to the sewers where heavy was shredding the Kremlings like paper.

"Duck Sputnik!" The Soldier yelled before firing a rocket at the Kremlings.

Heavy crouched down as the Medic healed him.

Meanwhile Sniper and Phred taunted K. Rool, taking pot shots at his feet and the such.

"Rrgh, quit it you pee tossing monkeys!" K Rool yelled before getting shot in the arm by Phred.

"Yowch!"

Phred then started to shoot at him more, hitting the crown off his head too.

"Nice shots kid, get yerself a new belt!" Sniper yelled before K. Rool pulled out a backpack with a propeller that came out of it.

He then flew up to them and pulled out a blunderbuss.

Phred and Sniper stood still in awkwardness.

"Uuuuuuuhhhhhhh...." They said.

Sniper then pulled out a jar.

"Freshly squeezed lemonade?" Sniper asked.

K. Rool looked at it and grabbed it while examining it before chugging it and smacking his tongue before realizing... That was also piss.

He gagged and fell off the balcony as Sniper and Phred laughed extremely hard.

"I can't bloody believe it." Sniper laughed.

"You'd think one jar and he'd learn but nope." Phred said while laughing.

K. Rool then flew back up before firing a black cannonball from a blunderbuss.

It missed.

"Ha, missed us ya green mongrel!" Sniper laughed.

"Did I?" The Kremling king asked before flipping a switch and making it start to suck the duo in.

"Gah, run kid, bloody run!" Sniper yelled before getting sucked in entirely.

Phred ran down to the front door and saw that the bridge was broken.

This made the crock laugh.

"Ha, what are you going to do?" K. Rool asked.

Phred immediately dived down into the BLU sewers.

"Huh, so that's what you did."

"Bloody good job kid!" The Sniper yelled muffled by being inside the gun.

"Doh, shut it." K. Rool said.

-Gruntilda's Lair-

Gruntilda laughed as she placed the grey mouse into the new machine.

The mouse immediately went back to a yellow fairy and started hitting the glass and screaming.

"You can try to kick and scream but you can't stop me from making you cream." Grunty said.

"What?" Penny asked.

"Oh you see, you'll be a puddle when I transfer your magic to me." Grunty said tapping her fingers together.

That's when she heard a knock on her door.

"Ah, pizzas here!" She yelled.

She opened her door to see Banjo and Kazooie.

"Oh." She closed the door and got herself ready.

"Well well, are the bear and bird prepared for he- heck, ugh, grab me by my neck." She said bored by the censorship.

"Alright Gruntilda prepare to be taken down!" Banjo yelled grabbing Kazooie by the legs and holding her like a sword.

"Wait how'd you get here, the fact it was so fast is queer." She said.

"Woah, that's an outdated thing to say nowadays." Banjo said.

"It is, eh I was in a different biz." Grunty said before shooting a fire ball.

Banjo dodged it before throwing Kazooie like a spear and getting her to attack Gruntilda.

As she was mauled by a bird Banjo gave Darwin an extra boost for a jump, he then hit the witch off balance on her broom.

"Well that was easy." Carrie said as Kazooie flew back to Banjo.

"Guh-huh! We did it again." Banjo said before he fell through a portal cast from Gruntilda.

She then cackled as it closed leaving Darwin and Carrie to fight Gruntilda on their own.

-Monkey City-

Gumball and Phil were cleaning up with the other heroes in the main room.

"Sorry about that." Gumball said.

"It's fine, they only caused minimal damage and took a gem." Quincy replied.

"Yeah son, no lives were taken from us." Striker Jones said, patting the cat and human on their backs.

Gumball then saw a hint of red from the corner of his eye.

"Wait, look." He said pointing to the window that now glistened red as multiple machines carried multiple blimps of different colors through the city letting bloons float down.

There were fires already spread throughout the city and screaming could be heard all the way from the ends of the city.

Gumball stared in horror as well as rage.

Chapter Text

-Monkey City-

Mr. Black-Cat watched on a cliff side as multiple airships that had grabbed the blimps that had rejected his offer squeezed them to spew bloons all over Monkey City.

"See Mania, this is what I'm talking about, both sides crumbling because of me." Black-Cat said.

Mania cocked his head and looked at Black-Cat in confusion.

"Question, why not just kill them both off normally?" Mania asked.

"Mania, Mania Mania Mania, have you seen them, they've developed lasers, acid, and even a Tsar Bomba, of course I'm not going to do it the normal way, with infinite ammunition and magic is a double deal breaker, that's why I'm having this happen." Black-Cat said pulling up a screened device.

It showed monkeys focusing on bloons as R.O.B machines basically killed them as they were distracted by the Bloons.

"These tribes have just been at each other's throats for who knows how long, so who are they more likely to kill, the weak measly Bloons or the robots slicing them up with lasers, common sense says the robots, but history says the weak rubber." Black-Cat explained as black lightning hit the main tower.

"What the hell?" Black-Cat asked as he and Mania looked over.

"Mania I have a very important meeting to get to, take care of that." Mr. Black-Cat said before exiting.

In the tower Phil backed off from Gumball who was now holding two red jagged axes and covered in black armor with a helmet with two black horns on it.

Gumball then jumped out as Phil looked back at the heroes leaving the tower.

On ground zero Gumball cut through bloons ferociously, even growling as he cut through them like paper, this form was what he used against Metal when Dreamland was invaded.

"Just die you worthless pieces of rubbery filth!" He said with a raspy voice.

The other heroes joined him in popping the bloons, along with multiple monkeys using darts, boomerangs, and all the normal stuff.

As they did Gumball saw a blue blimp slowly charge before he bursted through it.

Phil watched the chaos with Benjamin and Psi.

"Wow that's awesome." Phil said in surprise.

"Gumball, his aura, it reeks of violence and destruction." Psi said holding out his hand.

"Well that's obvious." Phil said.

"Huh, monkeys are going offline left and right." Benjamin said.

"Offline?" Phil asked.

"Yeah, with all the soldiers, it can be hard to track, so we use microchips, Everyone you've met, besides Psi, has a but they've only gone offline in a few cases." Ben explained.

That's when Phil saw it on the cameras, a robot firing a laser through a monkey in a yellow jumpsuit.

"Hold on, the bloons are distractions." Phil said.

"What?" Benjamin said.

"Look, they're targeting the bloons but are getting killed by robots." Phil said pointing at the cameras.

Benjamin examined them and saw it.

Back on the ground Gumball was decimating a BAD bloon and had just broken through the initial layer releasing DDTs that were blown up by cannons.

That's before he felt something bounce off his helmet, he looked back to see a robot shooting at monkeys.

Phil then called him.

"Gumball, the bloons are distractions!" Phil said atop a pile of rubble.

As he realized he started to calm down and reverted back to his normal self.

He jumped to it and cut its head in half.

"Everyone!" He yelled.

"What is it son?" Jones asked .

"The bloons are di-" Gumball couldn't finish before getting tackled before Striker Jones could see him.

"Kid?" Jones asked. "Man my age is probably getting to me." Jones said.

Gumball tustled with Mania.

"Well well, we have a kid trying to play the hero don't we?" Mania asked with a shark-like grin.

"Who are you?" Gumball asked before coughing.

"Wow, don't remember me, even after I attacked your "pwecious wittle Penny."" Mania said before laughing like a maniac.

"That was you!" Gumball yelled angrily, he drew his sword.

"That's what happens when you try to be a hero, people you love, they're all at risk, if not by me then by Shadow Man, if not him then Black-Cat, if not any of us, then some other villain thinking they're a big shot will try some crap, vicious cycle." Mania said.

Gumball charged at him, attempting to slice through him, his tentacles however allowed the sword to pass through smoothly.

"Gosh darn it quit being slippery!" Gumball yelled.

Mania continued to be a slippery slugger by punching Gumball in the face and kicking him into a wall.

"Wow, That weak eh, I thought you'd at least try some cleaver trick, but nope, you're all bark and no bite, can't even fight off a killer, your sister, most likely sealed off forever, that king, let's say that you let MetaKnight down, face it, you were born and will now die as a looser." Mania said raising his foot up and forming it into a group of sharp tentacles.

Gumball started crying feeling the pain in his chest and stomach.

"Heh, cry, let it all out." Mania said mockingly.

Gumball's tail then began to glow a bright green.

"Uh, what's up with your tai-" Mania was interrupted by lightning striking him.

He was knocked back and surprised.

He looked up and saw Gumball covered in blue and yellow armor, his sword had a blue aura with a light green light shining behind him.

"What in the godda-" Mania was struck by lightning again.

"sto-AAAAAAAAAHHHHH!" Mania was then set aflame.

Gumball then tipped his sword up, this then made Mania start flying up into the atmosphere.

Phil then ran into Gumball with Benjamin and Psi by his side.

"Gumball?" Phil asked.

Gumball soon floated down and shook himself off.

"Gumdro- I mean Gumball, the bloons, they're a-"

"A distraction from the robots, I know, we gotta stop them." Gumball said.

Phil nodded in agreement and when Gumball ran he followed.

"Everyone!" Gumball yelled.

Quincy then looked at them.

"The bloons shouldn't be targeted, there's robots we should fight!" Gumball yelled.

Quincy then looked around.

"Well, you heard him, c'mon break the robots!" Quincy yelled.

The ROB machines noticed that all the monkeys had stopped hitting monkeys.

"Maybe they can't see us if we're extremely sti-" the robot's head was cut off by a glaive.

"TREEEAAAAAD!" Another ROB yelled as they started to tread away while attempting to blast the monkeys.

"Well glad that's done and over with." Phil said while brushing his hands.

"H̷o̸ ̴h̶o̷ ̵h̴o̶!" A voice from the sky laughed.

"Oh." Gumball and Phil said.

-2-Fort-

Phred swam to the sewage pipe and took cover in a room within the system, there was another pipe in there most likely leading to the BLU fort.

He soon realized that he was hyperventilating, his breaths became shorter and shorter before hearing heavy wet footsteps, this made him shut his mouth with his hand.

"Hello kid, I have your little camping buddy." K. Rool taunted.

"Oi right, you better let me out or use your skin for some new boots." Sniper said still muffled within the gun.

"Shut it!" K. Rool said throwing the gun with Sniper still in it.

Phred ran to the other pipe and saw a group of ROB machines in his path.

He hid again.

Who did he think he was, Phil? Phil could actually think of something to pop this croc, Phred was just a guy who handed him a dirty bag or something, he was useless in any and all situations.

Just a bored kid overshadowed by his friends.

"Well well, I finally caught you, now lie down and prepare to be squashed like a bug!" K. Rool yelled.

Phred anticipated his fate before seeing the gun sniper was in.

He saw Rool's foot raise up, but he had a plan now, he took a jar and put it in place of his head as the croc's foot broke it.

"Hwah hwah hwah... hwah, hwah." K. Rool's laugh slowly became slower as he looked at the shards of glass that were sticking in his foot, and while it thankfully wasn't piss, this time it was lemon juice, the adrenaline also wore off.

The crocodilian screamed and ran through the sewers in a state of Mania, knocking over the ROB machines.

Phred then saw that the blunderbuss was left behind and pulled the trigger to release Sniper.

"Thanks kid." Sniper said giving Phred a thumbs up and getting up.

Meanwhile the rest of the RED team, Sans Scout, were fighting the rest of the Kremlings.

"Heavy break crocodiles like twigs!" Heavy yelled before snapping a Kremling's jaw.

Smiley shot a few before starting to psychopathically laugh.

Zack covered for her, using his axe to chop them down.

"You Okay?" Phred asked.

"Yeah I'm-" Smiley stopped as a gunshot rang through the pipe and Smiley started bleeding from her shoulder.

It was the BLU scout who had fired a pistol, Zack immediately ran towards him as he drew his scattergun and got it ready to fire.

Zack swung down at the Scout and missed.

"Did think about that one did ya- a-a." The Scout said before falling face first with a hole in his back.

It was a Masked man in red.

Zack immediately ran to Smiley and helped her up.

"Any crocs around?" He asked as Heavy's heart sank.

"Medic!" He yelled impatiently holding the girl bleeding from her shoulder.

-Pat's Pond-

Ridley laughed as the sky became red.

"What did Black-Cat do this time you ferocious feind?" MetaKnight asked pointing his sword at Ridley.

"Heh, well I'll put it bluntly, he's taken the evil of this world and bent it to his bidding." Ridley said with an evil grin.

"You mean the bloons?" MetaKnight asked.

Ridley sighed, "yes, I knew that wouldn't be too intimidating, but this is." He said as two DDTS rammed themselves at the gang.

Meanwhile deeper in the forest Pat Fusty, Sword, and Blade were all in a cage with a BLU engineer guarding them with a sentry out in front.

"Let us out!" Pat Fusty yelled trying to bend the bars.

"Now listen here chunky monkey, if you don't quit yapping I'll get you skinned and turned into a rug." The engineer yelled.

Suddenly something hit the ground nearby.

"What in the?" The engineer said before a bear in shorts and pants summersaulted towards him and punched him.

"Guh-huh, what's going on now?" The bear asked.

The engineer got up.

"I'll tell you what, I'm getting a new pelt!"  He yelled as his shotgun was loaded.

A red bird then came out carrying a backpack and mauling the engineer.

"Now who are you fellas?" The bear asked.

"I'm Pat Fusty, and they're Sword and Blade, they're knights."

"'Ello" Sword greeted.

"I take it you want out of this here cage?" Banjo asked.

"No I wanna bloody grow old in 'ere." Blade said sarcastically.

Kazooie got off the Engineer's face and used her talons to unlock the cage door.

"Thanks, I think our friends are in trouble, but now we can help them." Pat said.

"Say I think we can help!" Banjo said.

"Sure, heck we can put you two in good word with MetaKnight." Sword said.

"Alrighty then, Pat could you throw us up and over?" Banjo asked.

"Okie dokie." Pat said tossing Banjo like a football.

Kazooie started flying in Banjo's back pack.

"Hey Kazooie, how many wonder wings do you have.

"Standard ten." Kazooie said.

Ridley laughed at the Knight before charging up a laser to destroy the pesky berry.

He watched the group closely, eyeing the knight in particular, he did a psych out making all but MetaKnight attack before jumping up which made MetaKnight use the dimensional cape, however, Ridley dodged that on the spot before firing straight at the knight.

However something, or rather someone blocked the laser while covered in a golden glow.

"What the hell!" Ridley yelled before seeing an iconic duo.

-Gruntilda's Lair-

Grunty cackled as the two nuisances of her days were put off.

"Yes now I, Gruntilda Winkybunion shall become the most powerful of Spiral Mountain!" She yelled.

Carrie immediately took charge and attempted to possess Gruntilda through the mouth, however the breath stunk so horribly that not even a ghost could handle it.

"Ugh, that smells worse than a mouthwash made of garlic and sweaty feet." She said before backing off and taking breaths of, well, better air than that.

"Was it me you tried to possess?, it appears that you weren't made to impress." Gruntilda laughed.

She then waved her wand, this started to make the machine Penny was in glow before it electrocuted her.

"Yes yes fuel my magic, even if your death is tragic." She rhymed.

"Oi!" The yell made them all stop.

It was Rocky with a frog in his pods.

"If anyone's killing them it's gonna be Black-Cat Industries." He said.

"Oui oui." Shadow Frog said before spitting his tongue out and having it grapple Gruntilda's wand.

"Let go you slimy pest, or I shall- Gah!" Grunty was hit by a rather large rock.

"Stop with the bloody rhyming ya warthog." Rocky said pointing out her warts and her weight.

That, and the fact that again she was hit by a rock, caused her to drop the wand and fall on her back.

Rocky then used the wand on Shadow Man making him back to normal.

"Mwee he he, I'm back baby!" Shadow Man yelled before doing a jig.

"Now then, you two." Rocky said pointing the wand at the ghost and fish.

"Wingardium leviosa!" Rocky yelled making them float.

"Noo, don't." Gruntilda screamed.

"Heh, this really does work." Rocky said.

Shadow Man cocked his gun.

"Say another one." Shadow Man said.

"Don't, you'll summon them." Grunty begged.

"accio." Rocky said making Darwin come close to them, Shadow Man aimed his gun at the fish before two men in briefcases showed up.

They were the most feared creatures in all of history... Copyright Lawyers.

Rocky threw the wand at Gruntilda who was dragged out screaming.

"Just wait and see, I'll get you back after I pay my feeeeeeee!" She yelled.

Darwin broke Penny out, however she was knocked out.

"Look let's just call truce." Shadow Man said.

"No, you sent us through this now, now you're going to pay for it." Carrie said coldly.

"Now hold on, we've helped you." Shadow Man said.

"You pointed a gun, a gun at my face!" Darwin yelled.

"Well this thing is harmless." Shadow Man said spinning his candy cane shot gun.

It fired a shot.

Everyone looked at Klungo.

"Klungo no feel goo..." Klungo fell flat on his face and started bleeding from it.

"That's it, you two are done for." Carrie yelled.

Darwin ran at Shadow Man and raised his hammer.

Rocky meanwhile had readied a Gatling before getting possessed.

"Rocky c'mon, shoot this stupid fish!" Shadow Man yelled while having Darwin in a choke hold.

"Oi right "mate"" Carrie said through Rocky before shooting Shadow Man with multiple tiny pebbles.

Shadow Man, dazed shot at Carrie before seeing that he hit Rocky in the eye.

"Bloody hell, gah son of a bitch!" Rocky yelled, he shot a sombrero bean bomb.

He continued jumping back before knocking down Shadow Man and himself off the balcony.

Shadow Man first fell through the wire that had Grunty's hole, then Rocky fell in after it.

"Ow." Shadow Man groaned.

Rocky's bean bomb fell in after them.

They both started to yell "no" multiple times before it exploded.

-Two Fort-

Heavy rushed through the fort with Smiley in his arms, Medic was close behind since his Ubergun wouldn't work on her.

They made it to the respawn room and laid her on one of the benches.

"You'll be okay little girl." Heavy said holding her hand.

The Medic had a knife and a rag.

"Heavy put your finger in her mouth!" Medic yelled as Heavy did what he said.

"Okay, this will hurt." Medic said before sticking the knife into the bullet hole making Smiley bite down into Heavy's finger.

Medic cautiously moved the knife around her wound before feeling the bullet.

Zack, Pyro, and Scout then ran in and put their backs against the door.

"Attention, you are all about to be either taken into custody or destroyed for messing with our all mighty ruler." General Klump yelled.

"Look pal, I'm not letting your ugly, slimy, scaley ass in here!" Scout yelled as a fist was implanted into the door.

Medic then removed the bullet and put the rag in the hole.

Zack then got his axe ready as Pyro pulled out a gas canister.

Pyro let the door open revealing many Kremlings, before tossing the canister, or as he called it, "The Gas Passer", it released a green cloud before Zack ran into the cloud setting multiple Kremlings alight.

Zack also started chopping up the crocs and landed straight into one's head.

Pyro and Scout also joined in the fighting.

This allowed Heavy to draw his mini gun as Medic finished with Smiley's operation.

However Heavy's gun was grabbed by Krusha and thrown to the back of the room Smiley was in, and Heavy was thrown into Scout and Pyro.

Klump laughed as he grabbed Zack and pinned him against the wall.

"Not so tough are ya son?" Klump said holding Zack by the throat.

Then the door opened again, with Smiley holding Sasha and breathing heavily.

The fighting stopped as Klump put Zack down and ran off before Smiley fired the gun which sent her flying back with all the recoil and pinned her against the wall as well as multiple Kremlings were torn to shreds by all the boolets.

Smiley kept firing until the clip was empty.

When it was all gone every Kremling was dead and on the ground.

Smiley looked down while panting before Zack gave her a hug.

She smiled, after a long time, she smiled both inside and out.

-Monkey City-

Quincy got into a ditch as he saw the red sky become even redder.

That's when he saw monkeys picked up by giant tentacles and lifted into the sky.

He ducked behind a banana farm as a Boomerang thrower was entangled in a grouping of tentacles.

Quincy then took out an explosive arrow and shot it at the grouping, it had no effect.

The boomerang thrower was then lifted into the sky as blood started raining down.

"Oh sweet Sun God." He whispered.

He then saw Gumball and Phil covered in  the stuff.

"Quincy, you alright?" Gumball asked while helping him up.

"What the hell is happening." Quincy said before seeing a battalion of Monkey Aces.

Multiple got hit by the tentacles as the darts did barely anything.

Quincy then saw Psi and Ben leading mokeys out of the town.

"Quincy, get everyone out of here." He heard Admiral Brickell yell as she got monkeys on her ship.

Quincy without question started looking for stray monkeys either injured or non-fighting in the rubble.

Gumball looked at the sky and drew his sword.

"Hey, quit it you blood eyed bootleg, fight me like a real threat!" Gumball yelled.

A tentacle then grabbed him and threw him into the sky screaming.

Gumball saw the hedgehog standing on a platform of tentacles.

"Well well well, the blue cat calling me a coward." Mania said before stretching out a punch which Gumball blocked.

However it grabbed the back of his shirt collar and pulled him into the hedgehog.

Gumball positioned his sword to be ready to strike.

Mania however threw him into one of the walls of the building and started approaching him.

"You think you can win Watterson?" Mania asked as Gumball got on a knee while seeing a salt shaker.

"Our industry has eyes everywhere, no matter where you go we'll find you." Mania continued. "Then we'll kill you, so you should quit while you're Ahea-"

Gumball immediately threw salt in Mania's eyes.

"AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!" He screamed as multiple corpses appeared.

Gumball started to saute the creature making him back up and able to be slashed, that was minimal, the salt however made him look like he was boiling.

"It burns!" Mania yelled as Gumball put salt on the sword allowing it to do more damage to Mania.

The tentacle platform seemingly started to shrink, Gumball looked at Mania's feet and saw they were connected.

Gumball started hitting the tentacles as well as Mania.

Mania soon started unraveling revealing a large red glowing eye in the place of his face.

"I̵'̸l̵l̸ ̸k̸i̵l̷l̷ ̵y̷o̶u̸ ̵a̵n̶d̵ ̴e̵v̴e̵r̷y̸o̴n̸e̷ ̸y̵o̴u̴ ̴l̵o̴v̷e̷ ̷a̴n̷d̶ ̸e̷a̶t̶ ̶t̷h̸e̷i̵r̸ ̸e̴y̷e̴s̴" He screamed reaching for Gumball who hopped of and threw his sword at the mass.

A direct hit.

Gumball then realized, he was high up in the air and will probably die when he hits the ground.

That's when something caught him.

"Need a lift son?" Striker Jones asked while being carried by a Support Chinok.

They landed and Gumball took a breath and saw Phil.

"Well if it isn't the slayer of Eldritch beings." Phil said.

Gumball saw all the monkeys and the heroes before looking back at the ruins of Monkey City.

He then looked at Quincy.

"Quincy, I'm so sorry." Gumball said.

Quincy sighed and looked at his bow.

"My father handed down this bow, they say he was the greatest marksman in monkey history, and yet we weren't prepared for something like this." Quincy said seemingly sad.

"Well, we, well you guys still saved possibly hundreds of lives, I heard from a movie that a city isn't a place, it's a people, the people who make up the city is that city." Gumball said.

Quincy looked up at the ruined city and grinned.

"You're right, we can rebuild, and make it much stronger." Quincy said.

"That's the spirit." Gumball said as Ben and Phil approached them.

"Here you go kid." Ben said handing Gumball the Telemension.

It looked different than normal, the dial function was much more visible and there was a small screen on the side.

Gwendolyn then swung in.

"You two did great, Gumball, you'd be an excellent bloon popper." She said handing them both bottles of hot sauce.

"Careful, muy caliente." Gwen said.

The other heroes gave them other stuff, Churchill gave them some tea bags, Obyn gave them bananas, Admiral Brickell gave them... A hand shake, and Psi gave them a miniature Sun God.

Then came Jones who handed them each a medal, Gumball had a blue one while Phil got an orange one.

"Gumball, you took out that freak, allowing us to save the monkeys of Monkey City, and Phil, you found out that the bloons were diversions to let us get killed, you both have earned the trust of Monkeys everywhere." Jones said proudly as Phil opened a portal.

They saluted Jones and went off.

-Pat's Pond-

Banjo landed after deflecting Ridley's laser.

"Guh-huh, alright dragon, prepare to be defeated!" Banjo said.

"*Rrgh* Get them!" Ridley screeched as He, BLU Soldier and Demoman, and the DDTS all charged.

Adora looked at everyone and began praying to the Sun God and incanting something that made everyone on the knight's side glow.

"PREPARE TO BE SMITTEN!" Adora yelled as everyone glowed a bright yellow.

MetaKnight rushed the DDTS and destroyed them all as Mike and Charles and Ellie and Henry beat up on the two mercs.

Banjo meanwhile slid under Ridley and grabbed him by the tail and started hitting him against trees while yelling "Guh-huh" over and over.

He then threw the dragon into the swamp.

"Ugh, you think this swamp can hold me?" He yelled before getting grabbed by Pat Fusty.

The two tustled in the water as they both sank, however something else entered the water quickly, after that Ridley dragged Pat Fusty with him in the air.

"Pat Fusty No!" Banjo yelled as Kazooie flew after Ridley.

"Hey Barney, get back here!" She yelled while shooting eggs.

As she fired a flashbang was thrown in front of her whilst blinding her.

She fell and Adora's prayer had worn off.

That's when Z and Mr. Black-Cat stepped from the shadows.

"Well well, the knight and the table of fools, here to attempt to thwart me, I've already taken care of my blimps and have had them stored." Mr. Black-Cat said.

"Black-Cat, you've come to take us out have you?" MetaKnight asked.

"No, well not personally, Z, kill them.' Mr. Black-Cat said.

"Sorry Sir, I am receiving a transmission from Mania and Shadow Man claiming that they've been injured.

"Back to the ship." MetaKnight whispered to the crew making them back away.

Black-Cat started a fit of rage as they backed off with MetaKnight leading Adora and the bear-bird duo.

-two Fort-

Phred and Sniper ran through the BLU base and down the stairs to the intelligence room, in there they saw Spy and a ebony man with an eye patch and bombs.

"Aye, Sniper, Spy n' ah are havin' some trouble with these bloody-" The man took a big gulp of a bottle and burped. "Campers at this intelligence!" He yelled.

"Demoman, Phred, Phred, Demoman." Sniper introduced the two.

"Good to meet ya lad." The Demoman said.

"You too, now does anyone have a plan?" Phred asked.

"Well there's a Scout, Heavy, Medic and Pyro." Spy said.

Phred thought it through and hatched a scheme.

Inside the four waited.

"So, this Black-Cat, he's new employer yes?" BLU Heavy asked the rest of the team.

"Ja, and paying quite well too." BLU Medic said.

"Mph mhpmhp."

"Hell yeah, I'm going to be rolling in dough!" Scout yelled.

"Oy pipe down ya wankers!" BLU Sniper yelled.

"But Sniper-" Heavy said getting shushed.

"I can't bloody think with you pikers mumbling about." Sniper said before tapping his foot.

That's when Medic and Pyro were shot through their heads.

Then Scout was blown up and Heavy was stabbed in the back by Sniper revealing himself as Spy.

Phred then snatched the intelligence while making a break for it and running up to the outside and jumping down the building and running to base.

Inside Zack was comforting Smiley.

"You alright Smiley?" He asked with his hand on her shoulder.

"No, no I'm not, my parents are dead, Ellie is somewhere I couldn't imagine, and it's all my fault," Smiley said, "and all because I was a stupid tattling brat." She said with tears.

"Hey, you're not a brat, and I'm sure Ellie is fine, look I wouldn't blame anyone in particular, besides the guy who killed your parents and the guys chasing us." Zack said.

Smiley then hugged him tightly.

"Thanks." She said.

Phred then came in while panting and holding a briefcase.

"Holy, Smiley, you alright?" Phred asked running up to her.

"Better." She said Smiling brightly.

-Black-Cat Inc-

"I cannot believe you two, getting turned to a frog, your weakness bringing downfall, I'd never think that you two would fail this bad, I mean Ridley fought adults, you two were fighting against literal children, how could that have gone so bad?" Black-Cat asked Mania and Shadow Man.

"Hey I still destroyed the town Shadow Man just summoned some hoity toity British lady lawyers." Mania said.

"Oh yeah, well at least I didn't get salty, literally!" Shadow Man yelled.

Both of them glared at each other as Metal came in.

"So sorry for the inconvenience but I found another crystal!" Metal yelled pulling out the white crystal he stole from the monkeys.

"Oh my, see boys, this is a minion, something you can actually count on in a time of need." Black-Cat said putting the crystal with the other.

"Thank you sir." Metal said while bowing.

"Well boss he is my creation." Shadow Man said.

"He has independent thoughts doesn't he?" Black-Cat asked.

"Well yes but-"

"It's irrelevant then, Metal succeeded in gaining something even if he didn't kill the target, he brought me more power, you two brought me more failure." Mr. Black-Cat said.

He then ordered the three away.

Black-Cat sat in his office wondering what's next for the company, and how recent events could help him with the new Gumball problem, hopefully soon.

Chapter Text

-Pat's Pond-

Banjo, Kazooie, and Adora were all welcomed aboard The Halberd.

"So, where's our next course of action?" Mike asked MetaKnight.

"Well, the device will lead us somewhere." MetaKnight said.

"Device?" Banjo asked.

"Oh, I almost forgot to tell you guys about that." Ellie said, "we snagged it off some Toppats, and long story short we've been hopping dimensions." She continued.

"Woah." Banjo said.

"For how long now?" Adora asked.

"See that's the difficult part, time moves differently in different dimensions, in Mike's we were there for about a day or two, in Your dimension we were only there for about a few hours." Charles explained, "although a day had already passed back in my dimension." Charles said.

Banjo looked dizzy as Ellie pressed the button on the Telemension, opening a portal to somewhere new.

The sky was more orange than expected and the area was empty all around.

Meanwhile on the ground Mr. Black-Cat entered through his own portal and wandered around before seeing a man in an orange suit leaving a pizza place.

"Hello, are you... Mr. Stick?" Mr. Black-Cat asked, he held a paper with a lot of the information on the guy.

"Well yes I am, are you perchance interested in my wares?" Stick asked.

"Yes, that pizza place, I want it." Mr. Black-Cat said.

"Now hold on there, I used to be a landlord, but now I've sold that place off." Stick said.

"To whom?" Black-Cat asked as his mask turned downward.

"Look here, that's none of your damn business, now get!" Mr. Stick demanded.

Black-Cat stood there before he started to chuckle, and that chuckling started to turn into laughter.

"You think you can look a business man in the eye and act vicious, you're merely a salesman, no one important, I have a hundred people like you who can do your job better than you can and ever will." Black-Cat said coldly before slowly drawing his sword.

"Now hold on buster, if you think you can- Gah!" Stick yelled as he activated his helicopter backpack.

Black-Cat jumped and slashed the propeller making him fall down into the ground before getting slashed by Black-Cat.

"Gah, wh-wh-what the hell is *blaugh*" Mr. Stick coughed up blood as he felt his body becoming numb and cold while still feeling piercing pain as crystals grew from his body.

"Should've just told me Stick, now I'm going to make sure that you're the dustiest in my collection of statues." Black-Cat said as two crystals broke through Stick's glasses as he was frozen.

"There, Robs!" Black-Cat yelled.

"Yes sir?" A blue and green coloured R.O.B machine asked.

"Carry him off." Black-Cat said before getting kicked in the face by a leg covered in blue.

"What the hell?" He growled.

It was a man in overalls wearing big shoes and having, get this, a piece of pizza as a head.

"Who are you?" Black-Cat asked before getting thrown up to the top of a purple, seemingly unfinished tower.

"Damn it." Black-Cat mumbled before getting stomped down upon by the pizza man.

He then tapped his mask.

"Shadow Man, send the boys!" Black-Cat yelled as he landed on his knees and one hand.

That's when Pizza-Head started shaking his fists like an Irishman.

Black-Cat drew both his swords as Metal, Sonic, Mega, and Stuart arrived.

"Ah ha ha, take him out boys!" Black-Cat yelled as the four charged on all sides.

Mega backwards long jumped past him as Sonic ran in for a kick, yet got kicked himself.

Metal stayed back and got out a stack of monitors and threw them before they got juggled and thrown back at him.

He dodged two but got hit by one before getting grabbed and thrown into Sonic.

"Gah!" They both yelled.

"Could you do anything besides laze after one hit?" Metal sarcastically asked.

"Could you have less of an attitude?" Sonic asked.

They were both stomped on as Stuart was being held by the body and used to lure Mega before being used as a weapon to hurt the boy.

The four were then thrown down into the fifth floor for their new mission.

-New Mexico Badlands-

Gumball and Phil hopped onto a desert cliff side.

"Gosh damn it Albuquerque again!" Gumball yelled angered by the fact that they were in a desert again.

The two saw a street and then looked at each other and decided to follow the road until they found civilization.

"So, you never said anything about your home dimension besides Darwin, what was it like?" Phil asked.

"Elmore?" Gumball asked.

"Yeah."

"Well I'd say that it was a place for everyone, but that would be a stupid way to put it, there was a void for those labeled as"mistakes of the universe"" Gumball said with a sarcastic remark about the void.

"Wow, that's... That's dark."

"Yeah, y'know I don't really know that much about you." Gumball said.

"Well I live in Michigan, I've stopped aliens from destroying earth thrice, and I'm claustrophobic."

"Stopped aliens?" Gumball asked.

"Yeah, these aliens on this thing called Project Vizion tried freezing over earth, it started with Viz and ended with... Another two aliens." Phil said.

"Alright then, anything else you want to talk about?" Gumball asked.

"Yeah, where did you get that sword, you clearly didn't know how to use it back at Dreamland, and when you got extremely mad you get this red armor on your body." Phil said.

"Well I got it from a rock in the woods, I picked it up and it dissipated into my chest." Gumball explained. "Then someone started talking to me about bringing perfection." Gumball said.

"That sounds impossible." Phil said.

"The sword?"

"No, the idea of perfection, there's nothing perfect besides the word itself." Phil said.

"Woah, that's deep." Gumball said.

"Thank you." Phil said before they came across a group of wooden and metal buildings.

The two ran to the group and jumped down and landed in a... Less than both fashionable and painless ways.

"Why... Did we... Do this?" Phil asked as they got up.

Meanwhile in an RV being pulled by a truck, Sniper was driving himself, Smiley, Phred, Zack, and the rest of the RED Team.

"I woke up bright and early this morning!" Phred sang, it was a song Sniper put on called "She's So Fine" by The Easybeats.

The back was chill as Zack and Smiley sat at a seat together, Smiley in the window seat and Zack in the aisle.

"So, how's your arm doing?" Zack questioned as Smiley stared out of the window.

"Fine." Smiley replied, her smile was turned upside down, like her world.

Heavy then came up to them. "Little girl and fiery boy, Heavy and Pyro want you to have these." He said giving Smiley a shotgun and sandvich, while Pyro handed Zack a flare gun and a fire axe.

"Huh, thanks." Zack smiled while holstering the weapons with Smiley.

Suddenly something made a thud on the roof and the ceiling started glowing as something cut through it in a circle.

The circle immediately fell from the ceiling as Ridley peered in.

"Well well, the Team Fortress and some kids, how quaint." He said before jumping in and grabbing Zack and pinning Smiley's face to the window using his tail.

"I'm going to bite through your skull and crush her windpipe." Ridley declared.

"You!" Heavy yelled.

"Do anything stupid and I'll snap her neck." Ridley stated as the tail prongs tightened and made Smiley gasp for air.

"Now for fire-boy." Ridley said with a snarl.

He opened his mouth before Zack drew the flare gun and fired it in Ridley's mouth.

The dragon screeched before flying upwards still holding Smiley who drew her shotgun and shot the robotic tail attachment.

It malfunctioned and dropped her, she thankfully was able to land on the RV in a way not as painful as falling on the road.

Zack got on top and handed her the sandvich.

She took a few bites and passed the rest to Zack who finished it.

Ridley then landed on the side closest to the Truck and pulled out Phred and threw him at the other two.

Phred had a machete and SMG on his back to go with the other Riddle Kid's weapons.

"So, dragons now?" Phred questioned.

"Yep." Everyone else answered.

Ridley launched himself at the three making Phred get back behind Smiley and Zack as they drew their shotgun and flare gun.

Zack fired first but Ridley grabbed the flare with the mechanical tail prongs making it explode into flames.

Phred then started spraying and praying as the SMG blasted across the desert.

Zack then had hit Ridley in the ankle and then the face.

Smiley then noticed that Phred had the pad in his pocket and nabbed it and made a portal.

"Jump!" She yelled as the other two jumped through.

"Smiley!" Heavy screamed.

She looked at him.

"Stay strong, Smaylik." He said softly.

Smiley nodded and with teary eyes jumped through the portal.

She rolled into a building and got up before puking.

"Jeez, you alright?" Phred asked as Zack helped her up.

Zack noticed how Smiley was now a paler yellow than she used to be, her smile had faded into a depressed mixture of sadness and contempt.

"Smiles?" Zack questioned before Smiley hugged him and held him tightly.

Zack slowly hugged her back.

He felt his shirt getting wet as well as hearing her sobbing.

"We'll take them out, all of them." Zack said looking out a window and seeing the orange skies.

"Having some sort of villain trouble?" A voice in the shadows asked.

The kids looked at him and he stepped from them.

It was Shadow Man.

"I'm The Shadow Man, and I've been preparing my fight against the demon Mania, who I assume you're fighting with as well." Shadow Man said.

"Really?" Phred asked.

"Yes, see he owns this massive company that oppresses people and destroys them, I should know, see, my home, once called Shadow-ville and made into a corporatized husk of itself." Shadow Man
Explained.

"Well, what are we waiting for?" Zack asked.

That's when they saw a man in a yellow jumpsuit climb in through a window.

He had a long nose with a yellow hat looking like a chef's, and a handlebar mustache to put most others to shame.

"Woag." He said.

"Um, hi?" Smiley said.

"Yeah yeah, nice to meetcha too toots, say is the bar still 'round here or did fatso get that all destroyed too?" The yellow man asked as Smiley stood there confused.

"Eh, hello any lights on in there?" He asked again before Zack stepped at him.

"Look we don't have any clue where we are alright?" He said.

"Really, you don't know The Noise when you see 'em?" The Noise introduced himself as such.

"Nope."
"No clue."
"The what."

The kids were confused as Shadow Man looked surprised.

"The Noise?" The shadow excitedly asked.

"Yep, in the flesh, and I'm gonna start up some trouble." The Noise said.

"Why?" Zack held that question.

"Cause this is the Pizza Tower... TWO!" The Noise said holding a peace sign and his face contorting.

-Middle of Nowhere-

-Litteraly outside the Pizza Tower Two-

-24 minutes before Smiley arrived.-

-...-

-nice weather today-

Darwin, Carrie, and Penny fell from the sky and landed on a roof of some sorts.

"Wow, this is much better than the witch's place." Darwin said.

The roof cracked beneath him making him fall into the building as Carrie and Penny floated.

Darwin found himself in a Janitor's closet as a purple cube man opened it, he had overalls and a big nose with a bushy mustache under it.

"Hey Peppino, there's a fish in here." He said.

All of a sudden a corpulent man with a tank top and a chef's hat with a thin mustache opened it.

"Gah!, What-a the hell?" The man yelled looking like if an old man put on a mask and went "Ooga booga booga!"

"Um, sorry sir, I just landed on your roof and fell in." Darwin said.

"You broke-a my roof!" The man yelled while grabbing Darwin.

"Hey I'm sorry maybe you should get a better-" Darwin was squeezed by the man whose face was now red. "Roofing." Darwin finished his sentence.

The man simply dropped him and sighed.

"Fuggitaboutit." The man flatly said before sitting in a depressed manner.

"Um, sorry sir." Darwin said.

"Peppino, Peppino Spaghetti." Peppino said saddened.

Darwin looked back and started fixing the roof, poorly using his mallet to get some pieces of roof back up.

"What-a the hell are you-a doing?" Peppino asked.

"Fixing your- woa-woa-" Darwin fell again.

"Roof."

"It'sa fine kid, it's not like you were trying to destroy my lives work after I paid Jerome to help me." Peppino said in defeat.

That's when a man in a black cloak entered the restaurant.

"Welcome to Peppino's Pizza, sorry sir we're closed.

"Oh I'm not here for pizza." Mania revealed himself.

"I'm here for their help to defeat that no good Shadow Man." Mania said.

"Shadow Man?" Darwin asked readying his hammer.

"Yes he's hidden himself within, The Pizza Tower..."

"That'sa been destroyed for months now." Peppino confidentiality said while crossing his arms.

"Two!" Mania yelled as lightning struck outside. "Huh, that's never happened before." He said looking out the window. "Anyways, Darwin, with that hammer of yours you have the power to finally defeat him!" Mania triumphantly said in a salute pose.

"Gerome can you believe this chooch." Peppino said talking to the janitor.

"I dunno Pep, maybe look outside." Gerome said as he pointed to the construction site obtrusively labeled "PIZZA TOWER 2" "looks like they're building another one."

"Cavolo!" Peppino yelled as he pulled on his hat.

"Well Mr.Peppino my friends and I are willing to help you fold this tower 'til it's a calzone." Darwin heroically said.

The room was silent.

"That was too cheesy for me." Gerome said before walking out.

"That's the spirit kid!" Mania yelled as he started cackling.

"Uh, that doesn't sound good." Peppino said.

"Look Peppy,"
"Peppino." Peppino flatly corrected Mania.
"Whatever, you know that pretentious pizza place more than anyone, so we need your fat ass breaking through some bricks." Mania said as Penny and Carrie entered in.

Mania then slithered through Carrie and outside.

"There she is, and that blasted shadow is in there, doing the most malicious, pretentious, most X-esque shit in her." Mania said.

"So, ya in or ya out?" Mania asked.

The three from Elmore looked at each other and then at Mania.

"We're in." Darwin said.

"And you Peppino?" Mania asked.

"Fine, but don't-a think that I'll enjoy it." Peppino said.

So they set off on their quest, into the Pizza Tower... Two!

When I said that lightning struck another group's quest, The Meta-knightmare's.

"Uh, Sir MetaKnight, lightning has struck the main hull!" Sword yelled as he set the ship to land.

The ship landed and everyone got off.

"Well I'll be damned, this place looks better than most places we've gone to." Charles said before seeing Mike and Adora, "no offense to you two." He continued awkwardly.

That's when everyone saw a short man whose nose was fairly large and his mustache was hiding his mouth, he wore an apron and a small chef's hat.

"Oh, hey, I'm Gustavo, my pet rat Brick is in that trashcan." Gustavo calmly said as a huge rat came out of the trashcan.

"Hello Gustavo, my comrades and I have come from far off dimensions to fight the evil Mr. Black-Cat." MetaKnight said.

"So have you seen him or anything?" Mike asked.

"Hm, if he's here, he's probably up at that tower being built over the old Pizza Tower." Gustavo said, pointing at a tower with multiple projectiles being thrown around up there.

"Thank you Gustavo, come everyone, our quest is now!" MetaKnight yelled heroically before entering the tower, Mike, Ellie, and Adora followed him before Gustavo decided to join them.

"C'mon Brick, let's go." He said before rolling on Brick like a certain sequel to a famous Gameboy Game, coincidentally the one series MetaKnight is from.

As they rushed off Sword, Blade, Henry, and Charles sat down next to the ship.

"Any of ya know whist?" Blade asked before pulling out a deck of cards.

-New Mexico Badlands-

Gumball and Phil wandered around the place and found a fort colored by red.

There was a large hole that the railroad tracks ended on with multiple interior spaces.

"Woah, this is a trippy place, why'd anyone would have a huge hole in the middle of nowhere is beyond me." Phil said looking down the hole.

Gumball then noticed Phil and sensed danger, and he was right, Phil started slipping before getting caught by the blue cat.

Gumball then pulled him up and set both himself and Phil down, yet he had a cut on his left arm that was bleeding.

"Damn." Gumball whispered as Phil noticed a cut on his hand.

The two then saw an opening with two red cloths that Gumball and Phil used to cover up their wounds.

Inside was a room with medicine cabinets and a bench with a toolbox on it.

"Huh, that's, not ominous at all." Phil said as the box opened.

Out of it came, Mimi, but she was red this time.

"Mimi?" Gumball asked as the robot girl scanned Phil.

She was silent before looking at him.

"Daddy?" She asked with a robotic female voice.

"W-what." Phil said as the girl stepped down.

"Mama?" It asked again looking down at Phil making Gumball laugh.

"I'm just Phil." Phil said.

"Phil?" She asked.

"Yes, and he's Gumball." Phil said.

"Gumball?" She questioned before grinning and hugging both of them.

"Daddy and Gumball." Mimi said.

"Aw, I hope you're a proud parent Eggtree." Gumball smugly said while crossing his arms.

"Egg- nevermind you got it right that time I'll give you that one." Phil said before Mimi let them both down.

Suddenly the door opened to Engineer and Demoman.

"Aye, what the bloody hell, am I bloody drunk again?" Demoman drunkenly asked.

"Nope." The Engineer said before cocking his shotgun.

-The Pizza Tower-

Darwin, Carrie, Penny, Peppino, and Mania made it inside.

"Ah, as awful as I remembered." Peppino said.

"Is everything in here made of pizza or something?" Darwin asked.

"No just a name." Mania said.

"So where now?" Penny asked.

"Well we're off to..."

-John Gutter-

The five went inside to see a room of purple bricks.

"Alright, if I remember correctly there should be five-a toppins, Gerome somewhere and some eyeballs pulling you into a secret room." Peppino said as Darwin saw a yellow slime lurching around.

"What's that?" He asked disgusted.

"Cheese-Slime, harmless really." Peppino said.

"Is it, like actually made of cheese?" Penny asked as Carrie possessed Darwin and devoured the slime.

"Oh Santa Maria!" Peppino screamed as Mania smiled.

Carrie unpossessed Darwin afterwards.

"Thanks babe." Carrie said before giving Darwin a little kiss.

"Look how about we trek on, faster we do this faster you can keep trying to find Gumball." Mania said.

"Gumball?" Peppino semi-asked.

"My brother and Penny's boyfriend." Darwin dizzily said.

Penny wondered how Mania knew about that, he never mentioned anything about Gumball before then.

However they still ran through the gutter, surprisingly everything Peppino mentioned wasn't there, yet they kept going before Darwin suddenly slipped on a banana peel and hit a wall making it crack and revealing a giant pillar.

"Darwin, are you okay?" Penny asked as Carrie flew up to him.

He was dazed and confused and got up before leaning on the giant pillar as Penny, Peppino, and Mania got to him.

"Wait-a, don't lean on that!" Peppino screamed as the pillar shattered to dust.

"Oh..." Darwin said with a slowing hold on the "oh"

Peppino screamed before bolting away as the place started crumbling.

"Well you saw the man, move it or lose it, and by it I mean Life!" Mania yelled scurrying away as the three were left behind.

They started running immediately before Darwin hit a large wall with the mallet breaking it down and clearing the way.

Peppino saw it and saw that the place was crumbling faster as Mania caught up with him.

"Stop-a breaking everything!" He yelled before slipping on a banana that a Swedish Monkey left down and tumbling through a bunch of purple brick monsters.

This allowed the kids to charge past him and drag him out.

"Wait for me!" Mania yelled before jumping through the door.

They got outside and breathed heavily.

"Great now we can get going to the next door!." Mania said as everyone groaned.

Meanwhile while Peppino and Pals were on floor one, The Noise and Allies were going to

-Crust Cove-

"Ah, Crust Cove, so many memories, the ways that I had..." The Noise paused before looking back at the Riddle Kids. "Fun times." He said while nudging his elbow at Shadow Man while winking.

"Oh, mwe hee hee, I see what you mean." Shadow Man said doing the nudging and winking back.

"Say, I like ya Shadow, how's about you n' me go surfin'?" The Noise asked while comically pulling out two surfboards.

The two then left the Riddle Kids behind to surf.

"Wow, how upstanding." Phred sarcastically said with arms crossed.

Zack and Smiley started moving right along.

"Oh c'mon don't leave me behind!" Phred yelled.

"Then keep up." Zack said while shrugging.

Phred started moving with them and caught up soon enough.

Not too long in they saw a pineapple with arms and legs wearing sunglasses, Phred immediately snapped finger guns making it snap back.

Phred chuckled as Smiley also grinned.

They passed the pineapple and continued moving, Shadow Man and The Noise were surfing before accidentally getting on a pirate ship.

"Hey Gobos." The Noise said as multiple swords hit the wall while narrowly missing the yellow and black invaders.

Shadow Man readied his gun as The Noise began laughing while drawing bombs from his pocket.

"Let's shoot n' loot!" The Noise screamed.

Back outside the kids saw a barrel that was, well being a barrel.

"huh, neat." Phred said as Smiley looked inside before falling in and causing it to start rolling making Phred and Zack jump on and getting rolled on before they started rolling by semi-running on it.

They continued rolling down until reaching a cave full of the same kind of pineapples with sunglasses all in some sort of rave.

Phred hopped off the barrel while saying "sorry".

"Damn it Phred" Zack said as he ran over and squashed a creature with buggy eyes and a flat teethed smile, soon they stopped and Zack checked on Smiley.

"You alright Smiles?" Zack asked while helping her out before she puked and seemed nauseous.

"Okay noted, you want to take a seat?" Zack asked.

"O-okay." Smiley said as her eyes spiraled.

Phred meanwhile was dancing among the pineapples busting it down before The Noise and Shadow Man got off the pirate ship in the pineapple rave and also started dancing.

Shadow Man was breaking it down the hardest doing a mixture of breakdancing and The Can-Can before accidentally firing his gun and hitting the pillar behind Zack and Smiley.

"Ha, nice shot!" The Noise yelled.

The Bug eyed creature that Zack and Smiley ran over then started laughing, "Haha! Now it's party time, P A R T, why? Cause I gotta!" He screamed before a pile of rubble fell on him.

Zack and Smiley ran down.

"The ship, get to it!" Shadow Man yelled getting himself up there and Noise using his pizza smasher.

"C'mon." Zack rushed both Smiley and Phred on to the boat and slammed his axe into the side making Phred do the same but worse.

Shadow Man decided to help them up and in no time they got to the exit.

"Yee haw, now wasn't that a funky beat boy?" The Noise asked as the other three walked out looking tired.

"How many more?" Smiley asked.

"Bout three and a boss kid." The Noise replied.

"Mother Flozwad-"

-The Pizza Tower II-

MetaKnight, Adora, Mike, Gustavo, Brick, and Ellie made it to the tower yet saw that the enterence was locked.

"Dammit." Mike stated as Adora started to attempt a sun bolt.

"Don't you'll bring the whole thing down." Ellie said as Adora scoffed.

"Fine then, I don't suppose you have any better ideas then." Adora said as Ellie took Mike's gun and shot the lock.

"Huh, very enginuic Ellie." MetaKnight said as Adora's face scowled at the redhead.

They walked inside and saw an ebony man in a blue suit similar to The Noise's.

"Who the hell are you?" Mike asked pointing his gun at him.

"I'm, da Doise!" The Doise yelled before tossing a bomb at the group.

"Uh oh." Gustavo said before they fell through the floor.

MetaKnight caught Mike and Ellie as Adora caught up Gustavo, Brick fell but was fine due to his rattness, and Banjo was carried by Kazooie.

"Is everyone okay?" Banjo asked.

Everyone was fine if not a tad shocked.

"Where are we anyways?" The knight asked.

"Probably the sewers, smells like it at least." Mike said.

"Yep, almost as bad as Clanker's stank." Kazooie said disgusted by it as Brick floated up to them.

Gustavo and Ellie then landed on Brick.

"You sure he's fine with this?" Ellie asked.

"Yeah, he loves floating in water." Gustavo said patting Brick's head making him squeak in joy.

"Aw, isn't that cute." Banjo said.

Adora scoffed.

"Oh quit being all stuck up!" Ellie yelled.

"Oh, puh-lease, at least I'm not a criminal." Adora smugly said.

"You damn dirty-"

"Don't you dare finish that you pop-culture reliant-"

"Oh I'm Pop-culture reliant, your the one whose culture is about popping balloons!" Ellie yelled as the two continued bickering.

"Ladies please we can settle this when we're not in action." MetaKnight said.

"Hey she could just chill about being a stuck uppity bitch!" Ellie yelled putting her hands on her... Hips? I dunno if they count as such but I digress, although I don't think they-

"Get on with it!" Kazooie yelled at me, the narrator, lousy bird.

Soon the group made it to a floor labeled as, "basement level".

"Well would you look at that?" Gustavo asked rhetorically.

Meanwhile outside the tower and at The Halberd,Blade and Sword were on a winning streak.

"Ain't that a bloody great thing!" Sword yelled before high-fiving Blade.

"Alright Henry we're zero to twelve on this game, we need to understand this game somehow." Charles whispered as a group of five girls gained an interest in the game.

"'Ello ladies." Sword said before bowing.

"Crap." Charles said flatly realizing that they'll be embarrassed.

-New Mexico Badlands-

Gumball, Phil, and now Mimi were backed into a corner by The Engineer.

"Now what in tarnation do we have here?" Engi asked.

"Um, two kids." Phil said as Gumball and Mimi pushed Phil back and readied themselves to fight.

"Now wait a minute." Engi said, "are one of you possibly related to some kid named Smiley?" He continued.

"Smiley, of course I know her, and Phred and Zack." Phil said.

"Well I'll be." Engi said lowering his and Demo's guns.

"Looks like we got a sequel on our hands." Engi said as the two boys shrugged.

Across the map Z watched them and scanned the area.

"Badwater Basin, hm, okay I think they can work with this." He said before getting the intercom.

"I've scoped out Badwater, everyone be ready to attack." He said before looking at Mimi, he hoped that robot would at least keep Phil safe.

"Now let's get you boys cleaned up and dressed." Engi said handing them some suits.

After a minute Gumball now had some armor while Phil had some overalls and goggles.

"Aye, I think the blue one should come with me to learn some techniques of demolition eh?" Demoman said.

"Just don't give him alcohol." Engi said.

"Alright, boy take this." Demoman said handing him a grenade launcher.

Gumball replied, "I'm more of a sword guy." before Demoman handed him a shield.

"Well that changes things." He continued.

Engi kept Phil and Mimi with him.

"Well kid, I gotta ask how you built that?" Engi said looking at Mimi and examining her, "heh, almost looks like a mini sentry turned to life!" Engi said as Phil saw a remote on the back of her head.

He took it out and saw a note saying that she could be spawned after destruction every 24 hours.

"She was just kinda in here and didn't attack us, she even called me-"

Mimi interrupted Phil, "Daddy?"

"That."

Engi slapped his knee and laughed as Gumball and Demo trained.

-Pizza Tower II-

Peppino's gang were at the next level,

-PizzaScape-

Inside the place was very Medieval.

"Ah, reminds me of when I was-" Mania stopped himself from continuing with his story about ruthlessly murdering villagers, "in a village's celebration." He coughed up a lie, a barely good one at that.

The formula repeated before they were stopped by a rat.

"God-a damn rats-a." Peppino said kicking a stone.

"I got this!" Mania yelled before biting the rat, his teeth were in shards. "Dang."

Darwin tried the hammer which bounced off and flew past Peppino nearly hitting him and nearly hit Penny if she didn't become a mouse.

"Darn, well how can we-" Darwin was again possessed and used the hammer to whack the rat through multiple enemies.

"Holy-a shit!" Peppino yelled.

Mania laughed as death surrounded him and the pillar was knocked down.

-Meanwhile on the fifth floor-

Metal, Sonic the (Not) Hedgehog, Mega (not a man), and Stuart the chicken got up and saw where they were.

"Well this is where the boss wants us, I suppose we can get the info, and scram, we do need to go down a floor for some other plans but right now we should go there." Metal said pointing at a medieval door.

The boys went in and were greeted by BLU Mimi.

"How'd you get here so fast?" Metal asked frantically.

Mimi beeped a response as Sonic nodded.

"She climbed to the window." Sonic said.

"What, ugh, nevermind, let's just get through this and be done." Metal said as they arrived at...

-PizzaScare-

The boys and Mimi had arrived into basically Pizzascape but spooooooooky.

"Ah, y'know this feels as though we're treking through a, hm, can't find the word damn it, no matter we'll just-" Metal paused, "where's Mega?" He asked before he got hit by a giant stone.

"I found this!" Mega yelled as things started to crumble. "I also hit a giant pillar." He said flatly.

They exited.

"Well that was anticlimactic." Sonic said.

-On the third floor, at Gnome Forest-

The Noises (Team name pending), had arrived at -Gnome Forest-.

"It's-a Lario Thyme!" Shadow Man yelled pointing at a man.

"Hello?" Lario asked as the Riddle Kids went in the forest with The Noise.

"Ah, I hooked up with a few gnomes out here, one of them, Gus was the best, fat nose, mustache of dreams, ah, then I was forced into a marriage I never wanted." Noise explained seemingly somber.

"Wow, I'm, I'm sorry sir." Smiley said.

"Anyways, let's burn it down." Noise said.

"Bu-but, you met your true love here!" Smiley said as Zack was thrown into the forest.

Phred got himself involved. "Holy- alright you yellow jerkfa- AAAAAHHHH!" He too was thrown before Smiley blasted The Noise in the stomach.

"Are you guys okay?" She yelled to Phred and Zack.

"Yeah, we'll meet you back at the entrance!" Zack yelled.

Smiley grinned knowing her friends were fine before seeing Shadow Man.

"Ah, young Smiley, how's the adventure?" Shadow Man asked holding out his hand.

"Fine, but Phred and Zack were thrown down there by The Noise, I swear he's just an absolute... Jerk." Smiley said refraining from swearing.

Down the hill Zack and Phred wandered before Phred decided to ask the important question.

"Zack do you like Smiley?" Phred asked.

"I mean duh, we've known each other since before either of us were in school." Zack laughed.

"No I mean the way Phil does." Phred said.

"What do you mean by that?" Zack asked, clearly oblivious to the real question.

"Like a crush?"

"What the-" Zack took a deep breath, "dude, we're cousins." Zack stated.

"You are?" Phred asked.

"Simple as that, I thought she told you." Zack continued.

"Was not informed." Phred replied.

They were silent for a second before Zack realized what Phred meant by, "The way Phil does."

"Next time we see Phil I'll use his god damn skull as a bowling ball." Zack stated with full seriousness.

"Woah man, chill." Phred said.

Zack took another breath and sighed, "you're right, I'll tell him that if he hurts her I'll do what I said." Zack said checking his axe.

"Jeez dude." Phred wheezed silently.

Back up top The shadow and the child found The Noise smashing stuff.

That's when Shadow Man decided to test his aim and shoot a bird. He got it first try and celebrated before he once again accidentally fired his gun at a pillar as the other two Riddle Kids climbed to meet them.

"Well shit, start running back I guess." Shadow Man said moving like Candyman from Lethal League.

After another sequence that the lazy writer was too lazy and tired to write out before showing the narrator the cattle prod, the group had escaped and had gone to the next level.

Meanwhile back on the fifth floor The boys plus Mimi had entered the next level labeled...

-WAR-

The place was gruesome, fighters everywhere with guns blazing.

The five were immediately placed in a truck when bombs were strapped to them.

"Uh, that's no good." Sonic said as they were dumped into the battlefield.

"Damned show runners want to cancel us before our premier, well I'm not going to have it!" Metal said as Sonic began bolting.

"More running less monologuing!" He yelled from a distance.

On the way Mega had found a shotgun which would surely come in handy.

El Ninos y Mimi had continued their path of destruction before arriving at some sort of facility.

"This is the place, let's infiltrate it." Metal said as Sonic checked the timers on the bombs.

The time left was now apparently fifteen minutes, so they'd need to go, fast.

Inside they were greeted by rampaging slimy creatures that looked like Italians.

"Mama Mia, not New York!" Sonic joked.

"Quiet you!" Metal yelled as Les garçon et Mimi trekked on the abandoned lab before arriving at a computer.

"Cover me!" Metal yelled as Sonic grabbed Stuart, Mega held the shotgun and his buster, and Mimi held her literal handgun to defend as Metal stuck his schnoz into a headphone jack.

This made Sonic chuckle as it was quite goofy.

After a minute Metal pulled out of the jack.

Mimi beeped in confusion on why he did that.

"He had to download data and his nose was what Shadow Man thought would be the perfect part for a data extractor." Sonic laughed before he was thrown into a pillar making the bombs deactivate.

"How convenient." Metal said before a piece of ceiling fell right next to him. "I spoke too soon." He said.

After another sequence that would pad out this chapter if fully written The Boys and Mimi had made it out alive.

-Top of the Pizza Tower II-

Black-Cat eyed the Pizza headed pizza head who still goofily stared at him, Black-Cat was bloodied and bruised with some pieces of his mask being cracked, he was still breathing though and thankfully he saw a blue flash get between him and the pizza man, Gumbot.

-To Be Continued-

Chapter Text

Ridley watched the blue cat now wielding a shield training with a RED Demoman.

He had gathered with King K. Rool and his two main side goons Klump and Krusha, the BLU team, Rocky, Super Brainz, The Zombie Heroes, Zomboss in a smaller mech, and Reginald who was waiting on someone.

"What's taking so long dammit?" Reginald asked as he was pacing.

In the middle Zomboss was strategizing how the attack should play out.

That's when a portal opened that split the table.

Out came The Right Hand Man who now had cybernetics and a version of Henry and Ellie but with top hats, Henry had a gold chain with an encrusted S on it, Ellie meanwhile had a rose on a pink hat.

"Who are they?" K. Rool asked.

"They're the Toppat version of 'Enry and Elly." Right Hand Man said, "had to prove that Black-Cat was a good employer by killing their version of me and Reginald." The Right Hand Man said.

"Can confirm, he killed those two effortlessly, and then promised us the best payments imaginable, and power too, now that's an offer." Toppat Ellie said smirking at Reginald.

"All right, now, what's the plan?" Ridley asked Zomboss.

"Well, I say that you should provide Arial support with Super Brainz and The Right Hand Man, Rocky K. Rool, Klump and Krusha should provide the main attacks at the front with the Zombie Heroes, Finally Reginald, the Toppat Henry and Ellie, and I shall attack from the back lines." Zomboss explained using the broken war table. "I still don't know where these nine should go." Zomboss said pointing at the mercenaries.

Ridley looked to them, "Do any of you have a preference on where to go?" Ridley asked.

"Heavy stay on front lines." The BLU Heavy said holding his gun.

"Heh, I'll go on the flank with Spy!" Scout said grabbing spy.

"I'll stay behind blowin' heads off some wankers." Sniper said.

"Ugh, bloody Aussies." Rocky scoffed.

"Same I ain't that kind of fighter." The Engineer said.

"Weaklings, I'll be with Stalingrad on the Frontline." Soldier yelled.

"Mpphhh!" Pyro yelled.

"Let's do it lads!" Demoman yelled.

-Pizza Tower II-

Gumbot approached Pizza Head slowly as the pizza man laughed.

Gumbot had scanned him closely and how he was defeated last time, but not only that he examined who and what he worked with.

As the Pizza laughed Gumbot got right in front of him before swinging an uppercut at at least Mach five speed.

This launched the pizza head into the sky allowing Gumbot to fly up there and Mario forward aerial him into the tower and on the floor below just as The Boys and Mimi entered another level...

-Don't Make a Sound-

"Wow, sooo spooky." Sonic said as they saw a dancing pizza robot.

"Ugh, an uncivilized pizza parlor, how disgusting." Metal said.

"Wait is this like a restaurant with robot entertainers?" Mega asked.

"Yes, but it seems run do- wait Mega don't go that way!" Metal yelled.

The other four chased Mega into the restaurant as he long jumped into another room.

"Ugh, let's split up and find him ourselves." Metal said worried for the boy.

"Don't worry ya met, I'll find him fine and dandy." Sonic said speeding off.

Mimi kicked a vent open and started crawling into it.

"Well, I suppose it's just us Stuart." Metal said as Stuart was just a puff of smoke.

"Damn it." Metal said before going off on his own and found a room with flying teeth.

"Huh, strange." Metal said examining it before it let out an alarm.

Metal saw a slender mushroom robot chasing him.

"Holy! nope nope not dealing with that!" Metal yelled dashing away before hitting a wall and getting cornered.

"Nononono-"

Sonic heard Metal screaming and looked back.

"Heh, sucker." Sonic said deciding that Metal despite his over dramatic attitude they were brothers and shouldn't leave each other behind.

He got ready to run but realized his foot was stuck in some sticky cheese.

"Shit." He said before seeing the same drone.

It screamed as Sonic saw two eyes open.

"Uh oh."

"Teriahhhh-"

Mimi had heard that from Sonic while crawling through the vents and started crawling faster before seeing something hanging from the other side of the vent.

She busted the vent open and saw a clown on strings before seeing the teeth drone.

She walked around it and kept moving before tripping over Stuart in the kitchen.

This almost made the alarm sound if Stuart didn't shoot an egg at it.

Mimi got up before seeing a sausage headed robot with a butcher's outfit standing over her, thankfully it wasn't moving.

She followed Stuart through the kitchen before hiding with him as she saw Metal and Sonic being dragged by a tall lanky mushroom animatronic and a cheese animatronic respectively.

Mimi readied her guns as Stuart scratched his feet, unknown to them the puppet and the butcher were right behind them both.

In the Pizzaria Mega saw an Elvis animatronic with skin yellow as pineapple and hair green as grass.

"Wowza, are you really Elvis in robot form?" Mega asked.

"Woah there kiddo, *huh ha cha* that's kinda a personal question." The pineapple man said with a mixture of macho and rambling.

"Oh, sorry sir, see I'm a robot too, and I just wanted to know another robot besides my usual four." Mega said somberly.

"Well dang kiddo, *hu ha hoo!* Shoulda just led with that, I gotta tell ya, kids like you always make me smile." The Elvismatronic said as he did an arm hold with Mega.

He was then walked to a party table with the boys and Mimi all ensnared, Metal in just ropes, Sonic encased in cheese, and Mimi and Stuart in puppet strings and sausage links.

"Wha- what happened to them?" Mega asked seeing them stuck.

"Mega, get your butt outta here!" Sonic said.

"Yes, listen to him, I know I normally don't say that about him but this time you must!" Metal yelled.

Mega saw another Shotgun and had an idea.

He started backwards long jumping and hit the Elvis animatronics' stomach before going straight through him and splitting him in half.

"Yeah, you get 'em lil' buddy!" Sonic yelled as Mega grabbed them and got them back to the entrance.

He then shot their encasements freeing them.

"Holy shit Mega that was epic!" Sonic yelled brushing cheese from his artificial fur.

The group then saw the Toppin Monsters running after them.

"Stuart on me, Mimi fire!" Sonic yelled as Mimi complied shooting at them as Sonic used Stuart as an egg minigun.

Metal meanwhile flew to the kitchen and saw a piece of paper with some sort of recipe.

He continued before hitting his head on the pillar.

"Well, I'll be damned." Metal said before flying off and zoomed back and just to be an asshole used his monitors and blasted the Toppin Monsters, except for the one running to Mega having gotten missed.

It grabbed him except instead of a scare it was... Oktoberfest?

Metal simply hit it and they zoomed off.

They came out and saw a hole below them and went down.

-floor I-

"Alright-a we should now be going to Ancient Cheese." Peppino said to Darwin's gang and Mania.

Mania had a Hawaiian flower pattern button up shirt.

"What, I see this as a vacayyy." He said sipping from a glass. "Can't wait for some gyros!" He yelled as they walked into...

-Ancient Cheese-

*One forgettable level later. *

"Wow, I remember nothing from that." Darwin said.

"Not a gyro in there, what a rip-off!" Mania yelled before stomping his Hawaiian button up shirt.

"Look-a, we'll just get to the next-a level." Peppino said as they journeyed to the next level which was...

-Bloodsauce Dungeon-

The five had arrived at the dungeon and were greeted by a hot feeling of heat.

"Well, I don't-a think they took out the lava idea did they?" Peppino asked while sweating more than usual.

They started moving down the dungeon.

"So what can we expect here?" Darwin asked.

"Well there's-a pizza cutters." Peppino said as Mania was cut through the middle by one.

"Well that would've been good to know." He said sounding doubled, he was split in two halves that reformed together.

Penny was creeped out by the "hedgehog" even more, she didn't know what to think of it.

"Metal." Carrie said.

"Lower down there's some lava but you can avoid it." Peppino said.

Mania's face lit up having an idea to push that fish into the lava like it was Hilltop.

They made it to a dark drop that was indeed dark, so dark in fact that they could only see each other's silhouette.

Mania chuckled as he pushed Darwin at the lava who panicked grabbing at air as his butt was burned by the fire making him squeal and fly up into the ceiling and putting out the fire once he landed.

Mania laughed his ass off after that, forgetting completely about why he did it, however, once he did, he was maddened by this.

"Sorry Darwin, I thought you were the Shadow Man trying to fool me." Mania said to make himself seem as innocent as possible.

"Wait, how? He's a guy and I'm a fish!" Darwin yelled.

"He, can..." Mania paused. "Change form, I think that's what it's called at least, he can basically disguise himself in the shadows." Mania lied, it would be kinda cool for him to do though.

"Oh, well I forgive you, but how come he's never done it before?" Darwin asked.

"It's usually only available in complete darkness." Mania continued his lie.

"Come on-a, that pillar won't-a break itself." Peppino said panicked.

They did their routine and got out with no more butt burns.

In the tower Pizzahead and Gumbot fought and were in quite a gridlock, Gumbot had learnt all his tricks and saw that he could hit him both with a flurry of punches and bombs.

However the pizza was slippery and jumpy which made him hard to hit with either, however this constant movement gave Gumbot an idea.

He had shot two bombs with ferocious cat faces that bounced off the walls like ping-pong balls and homed in at Pizzahead who took both like nothing but while laughing he was hit by a flurry of punches and an uppercut hitting him into John Gutter that sent him dragged through a secret eye.

Through the secret Gumbot had activated a charge that boosted him towards Pizzahead and slammed him into a wall.

Pizzahead then smacked him with a flyswatter unexpectedly allowing him to reach for an Uzi and also smack Gumbot again before shooting him.

-Badwater Basin-

Demoman and Gumball had been training for a while with a shield Demo called "The Chargin'Targe" which was wooden with a spike in the middle and a piece torn off along with an orange cross painted on and a metal rim.

"So, yer looking for a fish boy?" The Scottish cyclops asked.

"Yeah, he's my brother, I heard that he's been going through dimensions from a lawyer in the possible future, not for you but another dimension where everyone looks terrifying, like mutants you'd see the wrinkles of, and I looked terrible too, like one of those CGI monsters in an early nineties movie." Gumball rambled.

Demoman had blanked out and nodded.

"Yeah, sure lad." Demo said as Phil leaned back.

"So, you and that cat friend are looking for your pals?" Engi asked while examining Mimi.

"Yeah, you met Smiley, Phred, and Zack, but Gumball's looking for his brother, and his girlfriend, and his brother's girlfriend." Phil explained.

Mimi beeped as engi touched a screw on her elbow before she shooed him and held on to Phil.

"Daddy, I think I don't like yellow hat man." Mimi said with some not very good english.

"Mimi, Engi is nice and means no harm." Phil said as the engineer chuckled.

Mimi then beeped before aiming her handgun at something.

"Mimi, uh, b-be careful, we don't want anyone getting hurt r-right?" Phil said looking at Engi.

He was silent and stone faced.

"Well maybe you're wrong there kid." He said handing Phil a shotgun.

Phil held it and was surprised by the weight of it, it was probably heavier than a person in his eyes.

Demo meanwhile handed Gumball a shield and got out the pipe launcher.

The five just waited there. Waited for someone to come knocking.

That's when the RED team Spy walked to them.

"So you-"

Phil shot at him and Mimi followed suit pumping lead into him as the red suit became blue.

"Heh, good call kid, I don't know how but you figured he was a spy before even I did." Engi said clearly proud of him.

"I did?" He asked.
"He did"?" Mimi asked in sync with Phil.

Engi's smile immediately turned not so smiley.

"Well kid, I'll just let you know that you shouldn't just go around shooting everyone you see, but still, good thinking, just make sure you see him acting more snarky than usual-" Engi was interesting by the actual red spy.

"And especially look at the eyes and walking patterns." The spy said as well as pushing Phil over before he could shoot.

Mimi pointed her gun at the Spy before Engi got between them and stopped her.

"Now hold on, Spy is friendly, he's our spy, unlike the one you and Phil killed." Engi said while helping Phil up.

"I see you have another mouthless child." Spy said. "But, what's with the blue cat?" Spy asked.

"Was here with the kid Spy." Engi said.

"I see, I also take it you have built the sentry in the BLU team's brief case?" Spy asked.

"Nope, was there with them." Engi said.

"Very well I suppose that I-" A purple flash had made Spy disappear screaming.

"What in the Samhell?" Engi said with Mimi Gumball, Demo, and Phil all aiming.

That's when Rocky, K.Rool, and K.Rool's goons jumped to them.

"Oi, long time no see eh cat?" Rocky asked as Phil recognized him and ran at him before K.Rool kicked him.

"Ay, so you scaley reptiles want a piece of me?" Demoman asked before taking a swig of scrumpy.

"Oi right you Scottish cyclops, I'll take you out and take your bloody ass back to the all mighty UK mate!" Rocky yelled at the Scot.

"Oh so we have a British cunt now do we?" Demo said getting his bottle ready.

"Oh, you want to fisticuffs this you drunken mongrel?" Rocky asked.

"I'm gonna crush you into pebbles!" Demo yelled as the two broke out fighting.

The Kremlings shrugged before charging at the other four.

Gumball fought K. Rool as Phil fought Klump and Engi fought Krusha with Mimi.

"So I finally fight the cat giving Ridley so much trouble." K.Rool said grabbing his blunderbuss and firing a cannonball.

Gumball slashed it and cut it in half.

"My turn." He said before charging at the croc king and slashing his belly.

However he was unscathed.

"Good joke there." K.Rool said before kicking him into a cliff getting him caught by Ridley who was covered in blood.

"Oh, good seeing you again." Gumball said before getting thrown to the Right Hand Man who kicked him up and allowed Superbrainz to punch him down like Mario in smash.

Gumball saw that he needed to land on the shield and saw that a blue guy was coming at him wielding a shovel.

"I am going to make you land on your neck!" The BLU team's soldier yelled as Gumball blocked it and grabbed on to him making the soldier drop a rocket launcher.

"Why you little, I am going to strangle you and use your corpse to break my-" Gumball did exactly what Soldier said he'd do to him.

Phil, Engi, and Mimi meanwhile we're fending off Klump and Krusha.

Phil shot at them with the shotgun which sent him backwards in recoil and missed Klump.

"Just go kid, Mimi and I will hold 'em back." Engi said as Phil ran off.

"Heh, you shouldn't have done that, now he might just get killed himself." Krusha laughed before Mimi smacked him and shot him in the abs.

Phil continued running before seeing a group of stickmen like Henry, Ellie, and Charles but he saw Reginald and the former two.

"Henry, Ellie, what are you two doing..." He slowed down noticing the sinister smiles on their faces and that Henry held an AK while Ellie held an Uzi.

-Pizza Tower II third floor-

The Noises were going down to the next level after Gnome Forest.

-Deep Dish Nine-

"This is one small step for Noise, one giant leap of Noise-kind" The Noise said before hopping on a rocket and blowing through asteroids.

"Well, we should follow him." Zack said seeing a rocket and grabbing on to it before getting shot off screaming.

"Oh heck no, you're not catching me on that!" Phred said before Shadow Man pushed him on it and sent him flying while screaming.

"Wait can we do a countdown?" Smiley asked.

"Okay, on three." Shadow Man said before pausing and positioning his gun like a golf club. "Okay... THREE!" He yelled whacking Smiley onto the rocket which sent her zooming.

"Shadow Man laughed thinking that this would be the way to get rid of the pests efficiently.

He hooked himself to a rocket and followed suit before seeing the three of them all a-okay.

"Jeez, what's a guy gotta do to take out a couple of runts." He whispered.

They made it through before going into green olives that spun them around and sent them through the level, in said level they encountered a sticky situation.

"So, we just get in this rocket?" Phred asked.

"Yep, as simple as that, we just don't press a big red button." The Noise said as they got in. "Ooh a big red button!" He yelled before pressing it and sending them up to another planet.

They arrived there in a bumpy way but still made it.

Through the alien world they trekked making use of the rockets and getting better at using them.

Shadow Man internally screamed and raged in fear of what the boss would do to him, like a demotion, to third in command. He would be where Mania is while that slimy menacing hentai regect is on top in his spot.

Then again, these are the kids Mania was struggling with due to all their on hand salt that randomly appeared, and Mania was dealing with possibly foes possibly more powerful than him so he stopped worrying.

They got to the pillar and broke it running back to where they started through the obstacles, and so continued the sequence that the writer was once again too lazy to write.

They made it out and immediately went to a level labeled...

-Golf-

They went inside and saw that the atmosphere was much more welcoming than it was in both Deep Dish Nine and Maybe Crust Cove, it was like a restaurant that you would enter and eat inside of.

"Why is this the nicest place here?" She asked.

"Well this was the resort floor so there were resort activities, Golf is one of them." The Noise said handing her a golf club.

The first one of many holes was shown.

"Okay ya little grunts, this is how you do it, see that old greaseball there?" He asked pointing to a ball of grease with glasses.

The greaseball named... Well Greaseball, was waltzing about before The Noise hit him with his club and missed the goal, multiple times, before finally getting it.

"See Primo-" The Noise was cut off by Greaseball.
"Nothing." Greaseball said. "You ain't in a movie no more bub." He continued before fazing out of existence.

"Golf is a stupid game anyways." The Noise said crossing his arms and pouting.

"Dang." Shadow Man said flatly. The same Man of Shadows went next on the course and decided to ditch the club and use his shotgun to first hit Greaseball with the handle of it and then shoot him in midair into the hole.

"Primoburg!" Greaseball yelled.

"Yippee!" Shadow Man yelled before becoming a version of the Autism Creature that was black and had white eyes along with the hair of Shadow Man and doing a backflip before changing back.

Zack then did his own thing by also ditching the club and using the non-sharp side of the axe.

It wasn't a primoburg but it wasn't as bad as Noise's score.

"Hot Dog!" Greaseball yelled.

"Oh, well better than nothing." Zack said.

"Shut up!" Noise yelled.

It was Phred's turn and he didn't know what to use besides the club, he ended up getting a Hot Dog too.

"Hm, alright not bad." Phred said.

"Your turn Smiles." Zack said patting her on the back.

"Okay, um I'm sorry sir." She said to Greaseball.

"Use your shotgun!" Phred yelled munching on his hotdog.

She decided to take the Shadow Man route and shot him into the hole.

"Primoburg!" Greaseball yelled handing her a primoburg.

"Nice one kid." Shadow Man said begrudgingly as Noise sulked to them now covered in stubble and looking washed up even though it was like a few minutes ago.

"Alright let's just go." The Noise said depressed.

"C'mon Mr. Noise, you can go again." Smiley said handing him her shotgun.

"Thanks kid." He said shooting Greaseball as he landed in the hole, and the pillar.

"Oh." Noise said as he was given a Primoburg.

He gave Smiley back her shotgun and pointed at her.

"She did it." He said grinning yet fooling no one.

Safe to say they made it out all right.

-Basement Floor-

The Meta Knights saw how this place looked like one of the worst places to live in.

MetaKnight was attracted to a door that said.

-Dragons Lair-

The Meta Knights were inside.

"So, we must have a fight with the dragon then?" Mike asked.

"Precisely, we shall slay the dragon to show Black-Cat we are not to be messed with." MetaKnight said raising his fist as to say "face me!"

"Alright then, c'mon Brick let's kill a dragon." Gustavo said.

Brick squeaked in excitement.

They went through the lair and found that tiny Power Ranger-like things were following them.

"Eh, oh hey, Brick look, toppins!" Gustavo said with joy.

"Hm, what are they?" MetaKnight asked.

"Well, toppins are little creatures that are like pizza toppings, you have mushroom, cheese, tomato, sausage, and pineapple." Gustavo explained.

Ellie exclaimed disgust at pineapple on pizza.

As they travelersed the lair they saw a slimy silhouette of a dragon.

"So this is the dragon made of cheese?" MetaKnight asked seeing the dopey dragon fly down to him and the other Meta Knights.

"Fight me." MetaKnight said as he, Adora, Ellie, and banjo joined him on rushing at the dragon.

Mike and Gustavo stayed back and shot bullets and Brick at it.

Adora started by using her sun powers and aiming at its wings while Banjo used Kazooie and shot eggs at its eyes.

Brick had hit its stomach and forced cheese to come out of it covering Mike and Gustavo in sticky cheese.

"I think I can say that with full confidence, I hate this stupid place." Mike said muffled by the cheese.

MetaKnight had gone right for its face slashing at the maw of the cheese dragon and getting a good hit on the lower jaw, however he was snapped by it and was caught in said maw.

Adora immediately shot sunbeams at its face melting it and seeing MetaKnight Drill Rush through it and land as it started flying off.

"After it!" MetaKnight yelled as the Knights followed him to chase the cheese dragon.

Mike and Gustavo were slow to start before Brick ate off all the cheese covering them.

Gustavo got on Brick's back and got Mike on Brick too.

"Let'sa go!" Gustavo yelled as Brick squeaked triumphantly.

-Badwater Basin-

Gumball got up and backed away from the corpse of the man who'd threatened him.

He saw that he was on a bridge and looked around seeing the man next to him.

The way he was lifeless and unmoving was all Gumball saw, he had that man's blood covering his fur, he felt as if he'd stolen a life, even if it was a defense, it was one that he'd killed for.

"What's the matter mate?" Rocky asked. "Never took a life before?" Rocky asked while chuckling. "Congratulations on that kid, and hell you got a bloody American, boar those ones, dirty but tough, strong ones at least, rest of them are just bloody inbred mongrels." Rocky said inching closer to Gumball. "Safe to say, you were one of the fo-" Rocky was stopped by getting choked by Heavy.

"Heavy crush rock creature." Heavy said.

"Gah, you damn-" Heavy threw Rocky off the bridge and helped Gumball up.

"Good job, Soldiers are tough, sometimes, I am Heavy Weapons Guy, but you may call me Heavy." Heavy said.

"Gumball, I take it you're with Demo and Engi?"

"Da, you're actually the second traveler we've met." Heavy said.

Meanwhile in a mine tunnel Phil was cornered by the stickmen trio.

"Look, I don't think we have to end it li-" Phil was hit in the cheek with the butt of the AK.

"Shut the hell up kid, whatever pussy version of me and Henry you met, we ain't them, see I plan on popping a cap 'tween your eyes and then kill that cat afterwards."

Phil was hyperventilating and felt heavy in his stomach.

Ellie got her Uzi ready and grinned with a sinister smile.

That's when she heard a metallic tap on Henry's AK.

The three looked and saw Scout holding an aluminum bat.

"Yo wassup?" Scout asked as Ellie readied her gun at him along with Henry.

Phil noticed his shotgun on the ground and grabbed it as a bullet hit Henry's AK breaking the magazine.

Phil immediately tripped Ellie and threw away her Gun, Reginald had his hands up.

Sniper went up to Scout and Phil tipping his hat.

"I don't bloody believe that worked." Sniper said.

"Better believe it pally, I make a good distraction now don't I?" Scout asked.

"Engi, Mimi, they're in trouble!" Phil yelled

"Alright kid, I think we've got an engineer to help out."Scout said helping Phil up.

"You three are goin' to the base." Sniper said

Engi and Mimi were dodging attacks from Krusha and Klump while Demo fought K.Rool.

"Aye, I'm going to use your skin for some nice boots ya lake dwellin' Bawbag!" Demo yelled firing pipes at K.Rool.

"Oh, daring are we?" K.Rool asked as Ridley landed.

Demo fired a pipe at them as K.Rool gut checked it and reflected it back to him.

"Nice one you drunkard." Ridley said before firing lasers from his tail. He continued until getting grabbed by Heavy and suplexed against the ground.

"What the?" K.Rool said before Gumball slashed at him knocking off his crown. "How- how dare you disrespect the Kremling King?" K.Rool yelled.

"I got you sir!" Krusha yelled before Scout hit him on the head.

"BONK!" Scout yelled.

"Nice one." Engine said.

"All right I'm gonna get commando now!" Klump yelled before Phil knocked him out with his wrench.

"Grah, where's the BLU team?" Ridley asked.

Meanwhile the BLU team were partying in the starting area.

Then The Right Hand Man went to them and saw all the partying.

"What in the bloody hell is going on?" He asked.

"The gates haven't opened yet." The BLU Heavy said.

The Right Hand Man shot a laser through it in response. "There, now go you bloody dumb-asses." He said pissed that they were slacking.

"All right." BLU Scout said, "damn Stickler."

The Right Hand Man grabbed Scout by the neck and tightened his grip. "Are we going to have a bloody problem, or will you do as you're bloody told?" His robotic hand dug into the Scout's neck.

"Yeah, sorry sir, I just-"

"Do your job." The Right Hand Man said putting Scout down.

The Blu Engineer chuckled, "I've told ya that mouth of your's would get ya in trouble."

"Bite me!"

-Pizza Tower ll floor 1-

So there's now a boss ready to fight." Mania said as the team entered the door.

"Ah, so you finally make it, Peppino!" A large red man-thing.

"Pepperman?" Peppino asked. "What are you doing here?"

"Well my Ignorant Italian foe, I needed a place to stay and I mooched off here." Pepperman explained.

"Oh, so we can pass?" Peppino asked.

"Hm, well I could let you pass, or I can prove to Pizzahead that I am the perfect Pepper!" Pepperman yelled. "So no, I will defeat you and use you and your new pals corpses to show off that I am the perfect artist!" Pepperman yelled pointing at Peppino.

"Ugh, well I guess I have no choice." Peppino said.

"Uh, if I can say something?" Darwin asked. "You plan to use our dead bodies as an art piece despite the fact that I'm a fish, he's a sweaty chef, he's a tentacle creature, she's a fairy, and she's a ghost." Darwin said pointing at himself, Peppino, Mania, Penny, and Carrie respectively.

"Um, I will use them as references to PAINT!" Pepperman yelled charging at Peppino.

"Gah!" The chef yelled before jumping as Mania got hit and splattered into a wall.

"Ow... At least it wasn't... Assalt." Mania said jokingly as a *ba dum tiss* played.

"*Ugh* that was just plain bad, you should kill yourself Now writer." EVERYNAME yelled in a pink void not intertwined with the tower in anyway

Peppino charged at the red bell man before Pepperman jumped and made the chef splatter Mania even more.

"Wow you're going pasta line." Mania said in even more pain.

"Kill yourself Now writer!" EVERYNAME yelled again.

"Peppino you fool, I know your tricks this time, and with this time I'll-"

"BOO!" Carrie yelled transforming into a nightmarish form spooking the pepper.

"Gah!" He yelled before Penny smacked him on the back of his head.

"What the-" He yelled again before Darwin vaulted over Pepperman and hit him upside the... Chin? With the hammer.

Pepperman rolled back up and jumped up bouncing around the walls before ground pounding at Darwin.

"Uh oh." Darwin said before Peppino came to his defense and hit Pepperman into the wall.

"Wow, thanks Mr. Peppino." Darwin said.

"It'sa nothing, just focus on that red menace!" Peppino said.

"Oh, I'll go red, as a critique on your capitalist attitude." Pepperman said as everyone stopped.

"What are you talking about?" Peppino asked.

"Well- I-uh- see you called me a red menace and you run a business and that's capitalism in a way, and the red menace was a name for the communist and-"

"Stop, stop, I was just calling you that because you're red, and a menace, you're annoying and pretentious that's all, I don't-a care about your politics." Peppino said.

The room was silent.

"Um, so should we keep fighting or?" Darwin asked before Pepperman shoulder bashed him.

"Haha, you fell for my totally planned distraction!" Pepperman yelled as Carrie saw a sculpture.

"Penny, think of this guy and how he's annoying." Carrie said rushing to the sculpture.

Penny thought about how this pepper was that arrogant kind of annoying. Safe to say that did work and made her transform into a gorgon.

"What in the?" Pepperman asked before looking at the sculpture Carrie possessed to mimic his movements. "Dear Cheesus, I'm a statue, how could this happen, oh yeah I looked at a gorgon, huh that's a simple explanation, wait I can still move-" Pepperman then realized that wasn't a mirror. "Wait a minute?" He was then hit by Peppino.

"That'sa what you get-a!" Peppino yelled.

Carrie then used the sculpture to fight Pepperman in a fist fight.

"No, I can't do this, not to my own artwork!" Pepperman yelled.

Penny, still in her gorgon form tail whipped Pepperman to fling him backwards as Darwin spiked him downward with his hammer and Carrie uppercutted him and Peppino grabbed and slammed him down.

"That's it, I'm not going to go oh, so easy on you fiends, time for things to get spicier!" Pepperman yelled flexing his arms as to assert dominance.

He charged at Carrie and averted at Penny last moment which knocked her away and then took out a paintbrush and flung paint blobs at the group as Mania got back up.

"Alright where's the fight?" Mania asked before getting covered in paint.

"Wow that's paint-ful." Mania Said.

In the pink void EVERYNAME was hanging from a noose.

Back in the fight Peppino and Darwin rushed towards The self proclaimed "Perfect Pepper" however Peppino was hit by a blot of paint in the eyes making him scream and rapidly punching Pepperman who after the volley shrunk and landed on something wooden.

"Uh oh." He said realizing he was on Darwin's mallet, the aforementioned fish then bounced him upwards and struck a home run.

Peppino wiped off his face and saw that the kids were victorious.

"Good-a job you three." He said somewhat proud of them.

"Yeah... Good job..." Mania said agitated.

On the third floor however The Noises were to face off with their own foe.

In the boss arena the five went in.

"It is I Theodore, your arch rival... The Doise!" The Doise yelled squinting at the Noise.

Shadow Man had plotted this out as The Doise would kill the kids and Shadow Man would get the respect and attention he deserved for his clever trickery.

However The Doise was shot out of the room.

"Well well well, if it ain't the Noise?" A cheese slime with a cowboy hat asked.

"Who are you?" Shadow Man asked.

"Well outlaw, I'm who you should be afraid of, I'm The Vigilante, and I'm going to lay you out!" The Vigilante yelled pointing his gun.

"Heh, you know I'm always strapped." The Noise said taking out two guns.

"Good then you should know about this old tactic?" The Vigilante asked as he jumped upwards and fired shots from an Uzi that hit Shadow Man who wasn't expecting that.

"Jeez I wasn't expecting that." Shadow Man said to repeat me before getting kicked by the Vigilante's shoes.

The Vigilante then took out a six shooter as he and Noise had a gun fight before the both threw bombs, The Noise a Noise Bomb and The Vigilante some dynamite both of which exploded at them.

The Vigilante however somersaulted The Noise.

Phred and Zack immediately ran at him, Phred threw a jar at the Vigilante as Zack used a flare gun.

The Vigilante carefully avoided one but sadly not the other, and I'm sure anyone would rather be burned than, ugh.

"Do you have any idea who's hat this was?" The Cheese-Slime asked while gripping his hat.

"Um..." Phred froze realizing what he just got him and his friends into. "Piss." He said before getting kicked and almost being set aflame when the cheese took out a flamethrower.

"Jeez how many guns does he have?" Zack asked dodging the slime as well.

Smiley just stood there seeing what was happening to her friends, she was just frozen while clinging to her shotgun, scared by what happened to her parents, how that rock monster killed them both, now the same will happen with Shadow Man, The Noise, and her friend and cousin.

She hyperventilated before realizing, she could end that bumkin, she has a shotgun.

She ran at The Vigilante and shot him at point blank range knocking him away. As he was blown back he stuck to a wall and pulled out a walkie talkie.

"Call in the Cowvary!" He yelled as a box dropped and a hyperrealistic cow bounced around.

Smiley slid beneath it and shot the slime down before whacking him with the barrel of the gun to open it and reload. Once she did Zack had hit him with the flair gun and Phred the SMG.

Smiley then shot The Vigilante and jumped back to Phred and Zack.

"Alright then, I guess we'll draw, ready?" The Vigilante asked as the sun set.

The arena was quiet, the Riddle Kids had their weapons readied and were ready to fire, but out of nowhere The Noise shot the Vigilante before he could say anything else.

"Woohoo, The Noise wins again." The Noise yelled.

"Yippee!" Shadow Man yelled while feigning excitement, what he really felt was anger, anger that these dumb kids haven't been crushed, swiss cheesed, or killed in this tower of horrors.

-Secrets of The World-

Pizzahead was scrambling around the Secret Dimension while Gumbot chased him down, he'd calculated that they've gone through about fifty secrets so he had Seven left to get through.

Pizzahead was very good at maneuvering around the tower and the secrets were no different, Gumbot calculated that he could exploit this knowledge and use it to his advantage.

He went through another eye and threw a flurry of bombs at the pizza destroying the secret, he did that six more times with each time slowing down the pizza till the final one where Pizzahead got his hand stuck under rubble.

Gumbot then started rapidly punching the pizza into the eye and then out to the top of the tower and pile drove him into the flaming sword of Black-Cat.

Black-Cat looked at the upsidedown statue with crystals coming from his back to show where he was slashed.

"Good job Gumbot, Robs." Black-Cat snapped his fingers making two R.O.B machines come from behind.

They flipped it right side up and stood him, however he fell over.

"Scanners indicate that the feet are not at the perfect level, he will fall over unless placed on his head." One of the R.O.B machines said.

Black-Cat looked at the smug face of the statue that had broken a part of his mask.

"Leave it like that, he said, let's go back down." Black-Cat said.

-Badwater Basin-

Heavy grabbed Ridley and threw him away into the BLU base.

"Ugh, this is going terrible." Ridley said before seeing Superbrainz and more green streaks, he then looked at the nuke on a cart and grinned some more.

"Run while you can cat, I'll blow you out of your hole and use you as a pelt" He said to himself as his tail grabbed it.

He was going to take that billion credits and he was going to kill that cat for it.

Chapter Text

-Badwater Basin-

Ridley looked at the bomb shaped as a nuke in a cart on the tracks, as he examined it he saw the BLU Sniper running.

"You!" The dragon called out.

"Eh, whaddya want?" The Aussie asked.

"What's this usually used for?"

"Oh, the Payload, that's what we get to The RED Team to blow em' to hell." The cozy camper said back.

"Hm, alright, I think we can use this, he saw an imp zombie approach him along with Two Zombie Heroes Impfinity and The Smash.

Impfinity was an imp but in black and yellow clothing while The Smash was a Gargantuar with a mask.

"Smash and I are ready for RED Team!" Impfinity said with a hyperactive child's high pitch and some raspy added in there.

The Smash was silent.

"Alright, start pushing this cart." Ridley said before flying back to the fight at hand. On his way he saw The Right Hand Man flying to the same fight.

In the RED spawn Spy respawned and saw Medic, Pyro, and Soldier.

"We have to move now!" He yelled.

"For what Frenchie?" Soldier asked.

"We are being attacked, and that crocodile is back!" Spy yelled.

"Well, that's enough of a reason for me." Soldier said.

The Medic and The Pyro followed suit.

"To battle!" The Soldier yelled.

-Pizza Tower II-

-Floor 4-

The Boys and Mimi had entered the fourth floor with two doors still functional.

"Well Met, what's the plan?" Sonic asked.

"Well I suppose we should go through the Pig City and the... Peppibot factory?" Metal asked.

"Alright then race ya there slowpokes!" Sonic yelled before rushing to the Pig City.

Metal and Mimi Rushed behind him as Mega ran to them.

-The New Pig City-

The boys arrived to the grimy city.

"Um, Mega you should stay behind, this city looks to be... less than nice." Metal said.

"Okay!" Mega said playing with Stuart.

The other three went through the city with great speed as they rushed through Pizza Slugs and Cops. Sonic was extra as he started grinding on rails.

"Hey stop right there!" A pig cop yelled.

"Heh, what are you gonna do pig, cover me in mud?" Sonic asked as he realized he was cuffed. "Oh, that's how you want to do it, well how about I show you one of these?" Sonic asked before kicking the copper and spindashing throughout New Pig City as he moved past dancing pigs and got to a cab. He then noticed that Mimi and Metal were nowhere to be seen, he shrugged and entered the cab and saw Metal and Mimi.

"You imbecile." Metal said as Sonic learned that the cab was a cop car in disguise.

Meanwhile Mega and Stuart played Patty Cake before Mega was called.

"Yellow?" He asked.

"Mega we've been captured by the police, and we need your assistance to get out of prison.

"Okay!" Mega yelled before backwards long jumping through the city and stopping at a grandma's house.

"Oh, visitors?" She asked.

"Oh hello." Mega said.

"Oh dearie you're just in time for porridge." She said while handing Mega a bowl.

Mega ate it and was having a swell time before accidentally tripping and hitting the pillar in her house.

In the prison a huge piece of rubble hit the wall.

"Oh, looks like Mega got the pillar." Metal said as Mimi smiled.

They saw that Stuart was causing chaos for the pigs.

"Well I'll be damned." Sonic said wiping his nose.

"Jeez that's unnecessary, he clawed out someone's eyes." Metal said disturbed by the display of needless violence. Mimi beeped and joined in the massacre.

"Hey guys." Mega said waving.

"Let's just leave, now." Metal said.

They exited the chamber and went to...

-Peppibot Factory-

The Boys featuring Mimi had entered the factory seeing the sights of metal and hearing the conveyors.

"Hm, my sensors are detecting a sign of something of interest." Metal said moving up before getting squashed into a sixteen bit sprite.

"Ugh, you look disgusting!" Sonic yelled as Mega was crushed into an eight bit sprite. "Mega you look even worse!" Sonic yelled before dodging the crusher. They moved through the factory before Metal detected the needed data.

"There!" Metal yelled pointing to a console next to the pillar.

Metal then was shocked by an electricity block and turned back to normal. He then stuck his nose into the console and started downloading the data.

"Pfft, wow, he's been real 'nosey' today." Sonic said chuckling.

"I'll stick my nose in your eyes if you don't pipe down." Metal said. Metal finished the data download and destroyed the pillar.

They rushed back to the floor and soon got to the exit.

-Floor 2-

The Noises had jumped to floor two of the tower as that was the most ideal location.

"So I suppose we should go to Fun Farm." Shadow Man said.

"Oh yeah, I love that place!" The Noise yelled.

"Well sounds fun, I mean it's in the name." Zack said.

-Fun Farm-

The Noises had gone to a farmland with redneck potatoes, eggplants, and tomatoes.

"Hoo wee!" The Noise yelled running through. Eventually they got to a well where The Noise grabbed a chicken by the neck.

"Ooh wee, is that Mort The Chicken from the hit game Mort The Chicken?" Shadow Man asked poking Stuart with his cane.

"Yeah, you can use him on Mort hooks!" The Noise yelled as Mort pecked him in the eye and jumped on Smiley's head.

"Oh, hey buddy." She said as she walked with him. Phred chuckled at the display.

"Wow, he shure likes ya." The Noise said before rubbing his eye.

She jumped before missing a Mort Hook and fell off.

-Technical Difficulties-

"Ugh, that hurt." She said as Mort got back on her head.

"Well he's your problem." The Noise said as Shadow Man called in Stuart.

"Bock?" Stuart clucked.

"Heya Stuart could ya help Noise and I here?" Shadow Man asked.

"How's he going to help?" The Noise asked.

"Observe." Shadow Man said as Stuart ate them both and shot an egg that cracked on the wall releasing them from it. "Eh?" Shadow Man asked wiping off yolk. The Noise grabbed Mort by the throat and attempted to pull him off Smiley's head as she screamed as though he grabbed an exposed nerve. Mort was on there and wasn't letting go.

"Stop that!" Zack yelled bonking The Noise on the head with the blunt part of the fire axe.

"I got an idea, just pet him and scratch his head." Phred said while petting Mort.

Mort stepped off Smiley who was not bleeding thankfully.

"Huh, no blood?" Shadow Man asked silently.

"What was that?" Zack asked.

"Oh I was just commenting on how she's not bleeding despite the chicken digging his talons into her scalp." Shadow Man said casually.

"Okay then." Zack said moving away.

"It's weird from my perspective!" Shadow Man yelled.

"Yeah, yeah weird." Zack said.

They moved on with Shadow Man using the Eggcelent transportation Stuart brought to his table. They soon got to the pillar and ran out of the farm with Mort in tow. "Good chicken." Smiley said setting him down as he ran off. Shadow Man then saw Mania's tentacles then saw Peppino.

"That tenticled bastard." He muttered as he watched Peppino and Pals walk into...

-Oregano Desert-

"So this is a desert, is it made of oregano though?" Mania asked.

"No, just-a sand." Peppino said done with the monster.

"So what can we expect here?" Carrie asked as Darwin saw a flying chicken bone.

"Oh glob, I've been starving." Darwin said taking a bite before breathing fire and screaming.

"Careful, it's spicy." Mania said while taking a bite from the same bone. Darwin ran through enemies like nothing and while burning in the mouth. He soon got to a cow and got to the utter.

"Are you sure this is the way you want to cure this?" Penny asked before watching Darwin pull on the utter and getting milk in his mouth as Mania snapped a photo.

Darwin breathed with relief and sighed as a UFO came above them.

"Oh Santa Maria, you don't-a mess with cows!" Peppino yelled as they were abducted by the cows. They were in the cowhouse now. "Well, only-a one way to get out of here." Peppino said before making a mad dash and jumping over cows.

"Well, I'm not sticking around, I'll see you two on the other side." Carrie said phasing out of the ship.

"Alright Penny, let's go!" Darwin yelled.

"Actually Darwin, I want to ask, remember when you, me, and Carrie were sent to Neighborville?" Penny asked.

"Yeah?" Darwin said curious about what Penny wanted to say.

"Well that day I was attacked by That Shadow Man and some kind of tentacle monster, and I think that's the one, I mean he's made from tentacles and his laugh sounds eerily similar to the one I heard before getting knocked out." Penny explained keeping Darwin away from the conversation.

"Well maybe he was mind controlled, if Shadow Man can transform who's to say he doesn't have other tricks up his-" Penny cut off Darwin.

"If he was truly truthful then he would... I don't know, he's shifty to me and I don't trust him." Penny whispered as Peppino and Mania broke through the pillar. They all rushed out of the level making it to the end with Carrie. They stepped out and Mania immediately saw Shadow Man watching them. He grinned to him and silently said, "when the boss gives me your company after you fail I'll run your business to the ground and make myself the mascot when it rerises." He didn't actually say anything but moved his lips to it. Sadly Shadow Man couldn't read lips.

"C'mon let'sa keep moving." Peppino said as they descended to the next level.

-Badwater Basin-

Gumball dodged K.Rool's attacks including a kick, punch and another cannonball.

"You'd think before shooting another one." Gumball said before slashing the cannonball in half.

"Hwa hwa hwa, prepare for a truck!" K.Rool yelled switching to 'suck' on the blunderbuss and sucking in Gumball's head clogging it.

"What!" K.rool yelled before Gumball stepped on the croc's foot and released his claws into the foot of the uncrowned king. "Yeeeeaaaaaooooooooowwwwch!" K.Rool screamed in pain as he punch Gumball into Demoman.

"Aye?" Demo asked before Gumball was knocked into him and made the bottle of scrumpy fly into the air and land into the cat's mouth causing him to drink it. He began to transform into the form that fought Ridley in Dreamland.

"I *hic* I'm going to skin ya!" Gumball yelled as he armed himself with the maces.

"Hwa hwa hwa, if some spikey balls on some sticks are supposed to scare me then-" Gumball clocked K.Rool across the face and slammed them into his gut of gold before jumping for a slam before a baseball hit his helmet.

"Hey chucklehead, prepare for a Whopper from the boys in BLU!" The BLU Scout yelled before flexing.

"Ugh, just get em'." The Right Hand Man said as Superbrainz landed with Rocky.

"Oi, let me attem!" Rocky Yelled as Gumball drunkenly laughed.

"Oh no." Heavy said as the BLU Heavy took out a minigun to end the blue cat.

"Heavy will break you!" BLU Heavy yelled revving up the minigun before Mimi shot it which damaged it making both Heavys flinch.

"Nice one Mimi!" Phil yelled as Mimi smiled.

"Daddy's proud!" Mimi said. Scout chuckled at the sentry calling Phil 'Daddy'.

"All right time for a super beating!" Superbrainz yelled as he started a charge at Mimi.

"Oh no you don't you green *hic*-" Gumball cut himself off bashing Superbrainz in the belly making him land flat on his face. The Right Hand Man fire a laser at the group.

"Duck and cover!" The RED Soldier yelled hitting the Right Hand Man with a Market Garden. "Take that you lousy British man!"

"Oi, we got an American 'patriot' now do we?" Rocky asked.

"We beat you once we can do so again!" The Soldier yelled taking out a rocket launcher.

"Oh, is that one of your devices used to get kids in maths class?" Rocky asked before Scout hit him with an aluminum bat.

"Bonk!"

"Gah, bloody hell not again!" Rocky yelled recalling another desert and another bat made of Aluminium.

"Good job Scout!" Soldier yelled before Blu Heavy put him in a headlock.

"Heavy will crush your throat like stick!" He yelled before Red Heavy grabbed his blue counterpart's arms and forced him to release Soldier.

"Mimi, uh, do something, please?" Phil told her as Engi took a tool box and set it down making a sentry gun.

"Cover me!" Engi yelled as the Blue Scout shot Engi in the shoulder with a pistol.

"Haha, get wrecked you hard hatted wrench whacker!" Scout yelled before Mimi shot him.

"Nice one!" Engi yelled as Ridley landed and saw Gumball flailing about.

"What the hell are you acting up to?" Ridley asked, he noticed the armor scheme and the maces he came with. "Oh, not this shit again." He said while growling.

"Don't worry mate- woah- he's as drunk as a bloody geezer at football game- cripes!" Rocky yelled as he dodged swipes from the RED Scout.

"Drunk eh?" Ridley asked, now he was prepared to claw the cat's skin off and use the bones as toothpicks and his skull as an oversized goblet. "Then I'll have fun with this." Ridley said as he grabbed the cat with his mechanical tail and flew up and through a water tower. This had shaken the cat up enough to sober up.
"So ready to die?" Ridley asked face to face with the cat. Gumball in response projectile vomited in the dragons face.

"Gosh thanks I guess, still a little woozy but..." Gumball stopped now noticing that the dragon snarling at him. "Oh, sorry about that, I really shouldn't have well, thrown up all over you here let me try to clean you up some!" Gumball yelled as his armor disappeared and the Chargin'Targe came back.

"The hell?" Ridley asked before Gumball smacked him square across the face and drew out his claws. Gumball then began scratching and clawing like a real cat who'd been picked up. "You god damn little-" he stopped as he was scratched in the eye. "Grah!" The dragon screamed clutching his eyes as Gumball jumped off.

"Gumball, can you hear me?" The voice asked.

"Yeah, loud and clear!" He yelled telepathically.

"Good, I've got bad news, we have a bomb on our hands, two zombies, both equally strong, Impfinity and The Smash, you'll need assistance on their fronts, I suggest you help with that." The voice said as Gumball landed on his feet making them sting.

"Ow I should've worn some darn shoes." Gumball said.

"Aye, need some shoes do ya?" Demoman asked handing him some metal boots. Gumball took them and slipped them on.

"Thanks dude." Gumball said as Demoman patted him on the back.

"No problem lad." Demoman laughed as Ridley landed glaring at them.

-Pizza Tower II-

-Basement Floor-

The MetaKnights ran after the Cheese Dragon making their way to it's lair. The dragon was fleeing the battle which the knights declared as won.

"Now, Adora if you please." MetaKnight said before Adora started praying.

"Sun God, lend us your power and allow us to destroy this foe!" She yelled. Nothing happened however, this made her gasp.

"What, c'mon you stupid monkey!" Ellie yelled.

"Um, not to be rude, but something is supposed to happen?" Gustavo asked.

"Must be because we're in a different universe." Mike said before shooting the dragon's wings making it fall before MetaKnight slashed off its head spilling cheese everywhere.

"Wow, that sure was gruesome." Gustavo said as brick started eating cheese off the walls and floors. Adora floated back down and took a seat.

"My prayer, it didn't work, perhaps I need a sacrifice." Adora said.

"Sacrifice, what are you some kind of cultist." Ellie said putting her hands on her hips.

"Cultist!" Adora yelled. "How dare you, you rotten slag!" She yelled before covering her mouth up after what she said.

"Oh, I'm a slag, how about you, you pompous, bougie, bitch!" Ellie yelled.

"Ladies please, if we are to emerge victorious in this war against Black-Cat we have to be cooperative!" MetaKnight yelled.

"I'm agreeing with the blueberry here, Adora helped us fight Ridley, for that we gotta help her find Fusty, same with me and Firing, same with Meta and The King, same with you and those other boys." Mike said.

"Fine let's just go." Ellie said as Banjo picked up the head of the dragon.

"Look can't we all geh-het along here?" He asked as Kazooie peeked out of the backpack.

"I mean Banjo and I argue all the time." She said.

"Yes, this is what we strive for!" MetaKnight yelled as he heard a thud behind him and saw Black-Cat with a statue of Pizzahead.

"Speak of the devil." Mike said pointing his gun at Black-Cat.

"Ugh, I'm not dealing with this, Gumbot!" Black-Cat called as Gumbot flew down. "Annihilate them." Black-Cat said before taking off.

"Crap not him again." Ellie said putting her dukes up.

"Know this guy Ellie?" Mike asked.

"I am Gumbot, I am a combat robot designed by Mr. Black-Cat meant to both take care of major fugitives and eventually take his place." Gumbot said as he scanned all of the Knights. "Scan complete, initiating killing blows." Gumbot said as cubes went from him and formed a sword.

"Hmph, engaurde!" MetaKnight yelled before running at Gumball and using the Mach Tornado before Gumbot rushed Banjo and Kazooie before Mike shot him in the leg making the bullet bounce off. Gumbot stopped and his head immediately rotated to Mike as the old man cursed repeatedly while shooting him as he walked towards him menacingly before Adora blasted the power of the sun at him actually knocking him back.

""Ellie, Banjo, Gus, hunt down Black-Cat!" Adora yelled.

"Guh-huh, yes ma'am!" Banjo yelled as Kazooie did the Talon Trot and Gustavo rolled on Brick while Ellie ran with them.

-Floor ll-

-Wasteyard-

Peppino and Pals had made it to the next level which was all doom and gloom.

"Jeez it's full of more graves than my house." Carrie said as Darwin stepped on a corpse and began grinding on it like a skateboard.

"Ooooh, Mania likie." Mania said while wiggling his fingers and got on as Peppino followed with Carrie and Penny also followed. They eventually got to a Mushroom ghost floating in their path Peppino and Darwin immediately transformed into ghosts while Mania was still normal and slid through a cheese grater via tentacles. Peppino's ghost looked like Peppino in a bed sheet, Darwin's however semmed like when he and Carrie kissed in that one Halloween party.

"Oh, right, ghost transformation, let's just find-a priest." Peppino said already sounding done with the debacle with this tower a second time. The ghosts and Mania made it to a priest who healed the chef and fish but the Ghost and Mania seemed almost harmed by it.

"Hey are we forgetting something?" Darwin asked, meanwhile at the first cheese grater Penny was seated and cross armed.

Back with the rest of Peppino and Pals they had gotten through the graters before encountering another Pillar. Immediately destroying it. They ran back and and Penny was back with the exit.

"Phew, we're really getting the hang of this." Darwin said as The Noises went into...

-Fast Food Saloon-

"All right, now this is a gun slinging chaos bringing wild westin' I live for!" The Noise said taking out his bear arm, also known as a glock.

"Are you mentally allowed to have that?" Smiley asked.

"Second amendment kid, trust me, I'm packing more heat than a volcano back home." The Noise said as Shadow Man pulled out some sort of ray gun.

"Now what is that?" Phred asked.

"It's my inator- I mean Ray Gun, I don't remember which though, buuuuut who cares?" The shadow responded. They went through cards and kicked bottles before getting to a rocking horse.

"Well howdy, how about we race?" The horse asked.

"Alright." Shadow Man said before turning transparent and walking to the finish line. "Done." He said smugly before shooting the horse with the ray gun causing giant growths to grow on it causing it to scream in agony as they went over his eyes, ears and eventually mouth causing him to suffocate. The rest of The Noises watched.

"Heh, good luck sleeping tonight." He said as the kids were disturbed.

"Whoops, that was the growths ray, I need something more... Quick." Shadow Man said also disturbed about the instance and the fact he made that one. "Why did I make that anyway?" He asked himself. Eventually they got to a sausage that seemed ecstatic to see them.

"Aww, hi puppy." Smiley said as it lifted her, Phred, and Zack and rode them through the level. The Noise laid back on one and Shadow Man was dragged by his candy cane Shotgun.

"Get along little doggy!" The Noise yelled as they got to the pillar and the sausage stopped launching the three into it.

"Ow." Smiley said.
"My." Phred said.
"Head." Zack said to complete the sentence.

"Wow, creepy." Shadow Man said as the Sausage picked the three up. On their way Smiley and Zack had some hot wings, Zack was fine but Smiley was spitting more fire than a Dragon who could freestyle. Phred placed her on the doggy's behind, propelling them past the Shadow and Noise and into the exit like a sunset.

"YEE HAW!" Phred yelled as he took the hat from a living ranch container and started swinging it around.

"AAAAAAAAHHHHH!" Smiley yelled as they ran past a milk container which Zack grabbed and waterfalled it into her mouth curing her. "AAAAaaaaahh." She sighed transitioning from a scream into a sigh of relief.

"You okay?" Zack asked as they were at the exit and did as the sign said, which was exactly to exit. Shadow Man and The Noise followed suit.

"Phew, c'mon let's do that boss door, we have no time!" Shadow Man yelled as Peppino and Pals also went in after them.

-Basement Floor-

Ellie, Banjo, Kazooie, Gustavo, and Brick chased down Black-Cat through the level.

"Ugh, don't you plebians have anywhere better to be, like farms or a family equally as poor?" Black-Cat asked as he dodged Brick being kicked to him.

"Well Black-Cat, how about you stop invading and start running that business?" Ellie asked.

"Oh but that is my business, still hurt about that Black Airship by The way?" Black-Cat asked while smugly snarling. Banjo and Kazooie started the Talon Trot and caught up to him where Black-Cat had to block beak attacks from the right using his sword before Banjo took off the Back pack and let the bird loose. On the left Gustavo and Ellie started running faster along with Banjo and having Brick block an exit. "Oh, you are kidding me." Black-Cat said before jumping to a wall and sending a volley of clones.

"You dang plucker!" Kazooie yelled.

"Kazooie, language!" Banjo yelled as a Black-Cat clone kicked him in the snout. Ellie disarmed one and took its sword and started slashing with it dissipating in seconds.

"Damnit he can clone himself two!" Ellie yelled remembering her sign was in the copter.

"Jeez how many are there?" Gustavo asked before kicking Brick into a group and knocking them up.

"I don't know, even from a bird's eye view I can't see em'!" Kazooie yelled before firing a grenade egg into some and blowing them to a highway down under.

"Let's get it started, get stupid, and start murdering these clones before killing that Asshole!" Ellie yelled before punching a clone and dodging attacks.

-Badwater Basin-

Ridley had been chasing the two throughout the basin as Gumball spotted the two zombies pushing a cart. He immediately ran after them before an imp grabbed his leg.

"Hehehehe, yummy." It said before having its brainz blown out.

"Smash heard something." The Smash said before seeing Gumball. "Smash see em', Imp take him out!" The Smash yelled before throwing the Imp to the cat making Gumball roll on the sand and slash a few imps before the Smash was hit in the head by a bullet.

"Oi, ya luchador, you can take a hit?" The RED Sniper asked while laughing on a building.

"Rrrg, Smash will smash you!" The Smash yelled before leaping to the Sniper and breaking the building beneath them.

"Gah!" Sniper yelled before grabbing an edge as an Impfinity clone had come up to him. "Bloody hell I'm going to kill whoever made you and give him a good case of Jarate." Sniper said as it began to peel off his fingers one by one.

"Hold on one second!" K.Rool yelled as he heli-packed up to them. "I want the honors, he had used that damn piss jar on me and I want to take that revenge myself, Eye to eye." He said grabbing the hand of the Sniper and holding him over the cliff where the hole was and grinning at him.

"Crap, what do I do?" Gumball repeated to himself. he then started thinking, 'I'm no hero, I'm just a suburban kid who was in the wrong place at the wrong time, I don't know what to do.' He thought as tears began to run down his face and his tail began to glow green again like it did in Monkey City.

"Hwa hwa- what?" K.Rool asked noticing the way Gumball's sword had a blue aura and how Gumball himself was clad in yellow and blue armor. The croc immediately dropped Sniper who was levetated to Gumball's side.

"Er, thanks mate." Sniper said before tipping his hat.

"Well don't just stand there!" K.Rool yelled, "Smash, smash him, as in crush!" The croc continued.

"Eh, Smash!" The Smash yelled before slamming his fist into the ground but missing. "Eh?" He grunted looking at the lack of blood. Gumball had warped behind him and shot fire out of his sword burning the Smash's butt. Z had been watching this transformation and was intrigued, he took out a rifle, The Black-Cat brand "Far Ranged Demon" a Sniper class rifle that was purple with bullets with crystalline spiked tips.

"Let's see how this does." Z said while aiming at Gumball's head and pulling the trigger.

-Pizza Tower II-

-Floor IIII-

Metal and the boys had their data downloaded and were ready to leave.

"So Metal, what now pal?" Sonic said doing stretches.

"Well I suppose we just go home." Metal said before some goop dripped on him. "Ugh!" He yelled in disgust. The others looked as the ceiling dripped to a door that was dark inside.

"How's one last little challenge sound?" Sonic said before running into the door.

"Sonic wait- ugh, why do I even bother?" Metal asked himself before boosting after him. Mimi, Mega, and Stuart followed suit. Sonic stopped seeing a slouched and lanky creature, it's skin dripped as well, as if it were melting.

"Hello, nice to meet you, I'm Me-"

"Mega don't talk to it." Metal said while cutting Mega off.

The creature grunted, it seemed like one of the chefs at the War level.

"Heh, what's up ya big drip?" Sonic asked before it ran to him and grabbed him and hit him with its tongue. "Gah, ay, stop it you damn-" Sonic stopped after it melted after Metal it with a monitor.

"Hmph, disgusting creature, let's go." Metal said before it reappeared in front of Mimi making her shoot it in the face which made it start running around the room. The "blue bomber" and Mimi shot at it with Sonic using Stuart to fire eggs at it before it melted again.

"This is gonna be a problem." Sonic said as more creatures ran around the group. "Dammit what the hell is this place!"

"A house of horrors is what I say." Metal said before throwing more boxes at the goopy creature before it leapt like a frog and landed next to Mimi and hit her with its tongue.

Sonic then kicked it before spindashing through it and having a photo of that pizza head guy with it. " Eh, what's this thing?" Sonic asked as the thing froze making a groan of fear and putting its hands to its face. Sonic stood there and looked at it before noticing that there was writing saying "Fake Peppino and Me." Probably by Pizzahead.

"So," Sonic said gripping the photo. "You're a fake too, heh, guess I'm not surprised." He continued before a tear formed in the photo as Sonic began to tear it apart. "But as far as fakes go, you are one of the worst, who am I kidding, you're nothing, all you are is some disgusting mass of sludge pooled together by some pizza headed fool who's probably dead by now!" Sonic yelled before sprinkling the photo pieces making the clone scream bloody murder.

"HHHHHHHCCCCCCCCCOOOOOOOEEEEEEYYYYY" It cried before grabbing Sonic and dragging him against the wall before stopping to slam him into the wall before Mega and Mimi shot him before getting charged at. Metal immediately grabbed the two while they continued shooting.

"Sonic why do you have to piss off everything we come in contact with?" Metal yelled before hitting himself with a fire shield monitor and charging through Fake Peppino and dropping the shooters.

"Well, alls well that ends we-" Mega stopped as the floor crumbled beneath them leaving Metal floating.

"*Sigh* fuck." Metal said.

Beneath him the others were running from a grotesque crawling Peppino with a gaping maw chasing after them. Mega backwards long jumped while Stuart ate Mimi and shot her through the hallway with Sonic running past it.

Metal boosted past the fake and grabbed Stuart before exiting through the door.

"We did it yaaaaay!" Mega yelled.

"Sonic why did you just do all of that and then some, we could have been disassembled for scrap!" Metal yelled.

"Look I'm sorry, I didn't think he'd be... Like me... Nothing... Just a dumb mass of machinery scrambled by a shadow fool who's too proud of himself." Sonic said before taking a seat.

"Sonic, I, I'm sorry, I didn't know that was something you were going through, I-"

"I don't need your pity, what I need is to get that 'blue blur' and take his place, that will be my big break." Sonic said hopeful.

"Hm, I hope so." Metal said.

-floor ll-

The Noises were surprised to not see anyone in there with them. "Heh, guess we've won this one." The Noise said before taking out a beach chair and taking a seat. That's until Peppino and Pals had gotten in.

"Shadow Man!" Mania snarled while drawing claws.

"Mania!" Shadow Man yelled with some feigned surprise before pointing his gun at the bloody hedgehog.

"So he's here now?" Zack asked as The Riddle Kids took their weapons and The Elmorians, or rather Darwin took out his mallet. That's before Pepperman ran past Peppino and Pals to The Noises.

"Fear not Noise, I, Pepperman have joined your alliance!" Pepperman yelled making the Noise look.

"Oh? Hey Italian man, here to, I don't know, do shit?" The Noise asked.

"Well actually that Shadow Man is-a evil so I need to fight him." Peppino said.

"We actually." Darwin said.

"So Mania, you and your henchmen are here to take me out?" Shadow Man asked.

"Oh you're one to talk!" Mania yelled. That's when The Vigilante jumped to Peppino's side.

"Vigilante?" Peppino asked.

"Listen here Peppino, I don't know why you're back here, but I can let this here vermin do any more damage." Vigi said.

"So round two?" The Noise asked.

"Fine, on-a three, one, Two-" Peppino was hit by a bomb from the Noise who laughed manically.

"Oops, guess we're doing this!" Shadow Man yelled before Mania jumped to his face and screeched. "Gah you sum-bitch!" He yelled trying to pull the rabbid mass of tentacles. Darwin however had to face off Smiley who had her gun primed.

"Look, I don't want to fight you." Darwin said.

"What, really?" Smiley asked as Mania saw this and stretched a tentacle to yank the back of her collar making her accidentally discharge her gun making Darwin jump and slam his mallet at her feet making her tremble. "Woah!" She yelled before Darwin hit her gun away.

"I try and defuse and you shoot at me, What is wrong with you?" Darwin yelled before Zack hit him upside the head with the blunt side of the axe.

"Oh, not so tough now are you fishy?" Zack asked before getting smacked away by the mallet.

"Zack!" Smiley cried before taking out her brass knuckles from Heavy and punching Darwin in the face. Peppino had rushed for the Noise when she did this and clashed with him while the latter was skating.

"Ha, nice try Italian Man, but I know your tricks all six of them not including grab moves!" The Noise yelled.

"Well I had one more trick up my short sleeve!" Peppino yelled.

"Ha, and what's that ya goomba!" The Noise asked before noticing he was moving backwards from where he'd want to skate.

"The Laws Of Motion!" Peppino yelled before pinning Noise to a wall and uppercutting him. Zack had found himself next to Penny and Phred.

"Ugh, Phred? We need to keep it up!" Zack yelled before noticing that Phred had his machete to him. "What the?" Zack asked before nearly getting chopped by it as Phred laughed with Carrie's voice. "You are kidding me." Zack said before getting hit by Penny in bear form. "You are definitely kidding me." Zack said again before shooting her with his flair gun and causing her to step back. Mania still had Shadow Man in a choke hold as the latter was trying to get his gun.

"Why are you going this hard, can't you fight someone else?" Shadow Man asked while wrestling with the tentacles.

"Oh, I'm going to take all the credit here, and you'll be demoted to scrubbing my shitters." Mania said before Shadow Man kicked his crotch. "Gah!" He yelled, "why'd that hurt me?" Mania asked himself before getting shot by the candy cane and knocked into Pepperman.

"Ah-ha I have a new-"

"Hold on there artist, here's my critique!" The Vigilante yelled pointing his gun.

"Hm, I don't see it, what kind of critique is that?"

"Oh, you'll get it." Vigi said before shooting at him multiple times as he ran off. Peppino and the Noise were in a fight cloud while dragging everyone else with them.

"I have one final trick but before that, hold this." The Noise said handing a bomb to Peppino who grabbed him.

"I'm going to kill you." Peppino said before he and everyone else saw the bomb's fuse finish burning.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" They all yelled before it exploded.

"Ugh, I'm going to have a lot-a spaghetti." Peppino said as he and everyone else were covered in soot.

"You god damn stupid Shadow, I should've killed you when you summoned me!" Mania yelled.

"Oh, I should've drowned you in salt the moment I met you!" Shadow Man retorted as they both shook off all the soot and started a slap fight. That's when Fake Peppino arose from the ground as though he were a corpse rising from preparing to finish its prey.

"Gah!" Peppino yelled. The fake glanced at the knocked out children and held his hand to drip bits of himself onto the fish, fairly, and The Riddle Kids, they immediately awoke as though they were rebirthed in the clone's baptism.

"They... Fooled... You...." It said to them while pointing to the shadow and eldritch being, its voice was one that was both completely understandable yet one you wouldn't remember despite the simple language a child could understand.

"I-I knew it, you were playing us like fiddles!" Penny yelled.

"Well, to Hell with it!" Mania yelled before getting set aflame by Zack. "Gah, put me out!" Mania yelled before Darwin slammed the shadow flat. The fake grabbed the duo and slowly dragged them off, deeper into the hell this tower could be seen as.

"Alright, sorry about trying to kill you guys." Phred said.

"Same here." Darwin replied.

Phred nodded. "Cool, cool, I'm Phred, he's Zack, and she's Smiley." Phred said.

"Sorry for punching you in the face." Smiley apologized.

"It's fine sorry for hitting your friend in the chest." Darwin said.

"You're fine, I swung first." Zack said as Phred leaned on a wall no one else had seen. The wall began crumbling as the tower started to crumble.

"Oh, Santa Maria!" Peppino yelled while pulling his hat.

On floor four the robots and Stuart had noticed that the tower was crumbling around them.

"What the hell is happening?" Sonic asked.

"This place is falling apart!" Metal yelled before Mimi, Mega, and Stuart began running out.

On the basement floor a pile of rubble nearly crushed Black-Cat leaving him cornered.

"End of the line Black-Cat!" Banjo yelled.

Black-Cat looked behind them and grinned with schadenfreude. "That's what you think bear, bear witness to a god amongst mere children, a lion looking at the diseased cubs of the rival!" Black-Cat yelled as Gumbot picked him up and traveled through a portal with him and the pizza headed statue.

"Damnit!" Ellie cursed as the other Meta Knights ran to them.

"This place is falling apart!" Mike yelled as rubble began to fall. Gustavo kicked Brick through a pile allowing an escape.

Outside, Charles and Henry had won a game, a singular game of Whist beating the Brits who chuckled.

"Oi right, good game you two." Blade said before seeing the tower shake.

"We should probably get there." Charles said. Inside the tower, everyone was running from and through everything inside. Darwin then remembered that they had a tool for this situation, the Telemension, Darwin removed it from his shoe and opened a portal for his group before seeing Smiley's gang and noticing them doing the same.

Meanwhile The Boys were running off before seeing Shadow Man and Mania being dragged off into the crumbling tower before Sonic grabbed them and tossed Shadow Man to Metal who took out the boss's Telemension and leaving.

Down in the basement MetaKnight, Adora, and Kazooie began carrying company before seeing a hole torn through the wall making it fall faster but allowing the MetaKnights to escape with the new members Gustavo and Brick.

"How was that venture?" Sword asked with no response given, this marked the end of their time here all of them.

-Badwater Basin-

Gumball had the bullet frozen in place before pointing his sword back to Z.

"Hm, interesting." Z said before seeing Ridley charge at him before getting shocked by lightning.

The dragon then fell as though he was a bird hit by a rock, he saw how the bomb lay unoccupied and hatched a plan. Meanwhile Engi had a level three sentry ready for use and the last of BLU was defeated. That was until The Right Hand Man flew down.

"Ello." He said before blasting the sentry to smithereens in a matter of seconds.

"Apologies to you all, but-" He stopped himself and blasted Mimi's head, disintegrated in seconds. "You're basically done for." He said with a grin.

Phil looked at the headless corpse that had called him a father, he looked at the man, the man he helped do this to and without a second thought starts running at him and fired his shotgun at him. Doing little damage to the metal.

"Heh." The man laughed before grabbing Phil by the throat and having a tight grip. "You thought to shoot me and thought it would work, you bloody idiot, brave idiot, but what's bravery without a will to live?" He spat as Phil had tears running down his cheeks and grabbed the hand of his strangler.

"Please don't, I'm sorry I am, I don't- urk" Phil stopped as the grip tightened.

"You bloody coward, you run at me begging for your life after shooting me, what kind of idiot are you, I should crush your wind pipe right now." The Right Hand Man said before loosening his grip, "heh, reminds me of my old days in the Toppat clan, killed a man just like this, slowly, life from his eyes left him, never done it to a non-stickman." The man said before freezing in place with the red eye becoming blue and falling over. Phil looked up seeing The RED Spy.

"Are you functioning?" Spy asked.

"*Cough* yeah, I need to sit down." Phil said before seeing Ridley carrying the Payload using the mechanical tail.

In the sky Ridley shot a beam at Gumball who was unable to stop it and transferred back to his normal form.

"Ugh, shoot." He said as Demoman ran to him and handed him the Chargin'Targe.

"Trimp em' kid." The Scot said as Gumball smiled immediately he ran onto a building and started parkouring up the buildings and charged at the dragon and slashed him in the chest.

"Grah!" Ridley screamed. "You god damn- argh!" He growled as a bullet hit his tail right above the cybernetic making him drop the Payload into a portal opened by Phil from under to a place called Tramanull.

Ridley was beamed off away along with the other heels in the Basin, leading to a victory for RED, and another for Gumball and Phil.

-Black-Cat Headquarters-

Black-Cat was in his chair seeing the employees who failed him, however he had focused on a duo who failed tremendously.

"Shadow Man, Mania the way you failed me, this failure, blows out the failure all the others here, you chose to not only fight each other but wish death, what kind of leaders are you, fools I declare, this display shall leave you out of The Gala I've ordered to celebrate my most recent addition to my collection." Black-Cat said shooing them. "The rest, you all have earned it, despite the unsuccessful operation, you had shown a great deal of teamwork." Black-Cat said as Gumbot ordered a bow. They all bowed except the Toppat version of Ellie.

"and why should we?" She asked before Gumbot grabbed her by the throat.

"Because, those who disobey order shall be punished, via execution, quickly yet painfully." Gumbot said before slowly dropping her. Black-cat smiled underneath his mask and snapped having R.O.Bs with bottles of champagne.

Black-Cat smiled and poured himself a glass before tapping it to Gumbot and raised it before saying. "Oh, lay off Gumbot, bow or not it was a simple question, plus, the party hasn't even started yet."

Chapter Text

-Badwater Basin-

Gumball and Phil were with the RED team who were congratulating them for the victory.

"Good job small boy." Heavy said putting his hand on Phils shoulder which was admittedly too small for his huge hand.

"Heh, thanks big guy." Phil said before Engi went up to him.

"Well son, I'm sorry about your gun kid, but I have just the thing to cheer you up." He said before presenting Mimi who was as good as new.

"Mimi!" Phil yelled before hugging her.

"Daddy." She exclaimed.

"That's still weird." Phil said. Engi then laughed before handing him a wrench.

"Whenever you have that kind of problem and some metal on hand she'll be good as new." Engi said before handing Phil a pistol with it. "And everyone can use some extra gun." On Gumball's end Demoman, Sniper, and Scout were congratulating him.

"Woo, this little Cheet was a fire ball out there that dragon stood no wee chance!" Demo yelled.

"Yes sir, God save the-"

"Shut up you crocodile hum-hicupp-ing bampot!" Demoman yelled with contempt. The trio looked at the nine men and nodded in respect and opened a portal and stepped through before falling. Gumball landed feeling weird and saw himself in a puddle looking... Strange and screaming.

"Ah, what the what!" He yelled looking at his paws which were now hands and his feet being also human like he felt his hair and felt his cat ears and hair. "What have I become?" He asked himself in horror. He looked at Phil and saw him and was flabbergasted.

"Eh, Gumdrop what's... Wrong, why are you looking at me like that?" He asked before shaking his head and rubbing his eyes. "Why do you look like that?" He asked seeing that Gumball was now a human with blue hair and cat ears and his normal clothes without shoes.

"I don't know, why do you have a mouth?" Gumball yelled.

"What, I always have a mouth, I guess I just hide... It." He said before seeing his reflection and screaming.

"What happened?" Gumball asked in distress.

"I don't know but I want to go back!" Phil yelled before the Telemension beeped. "What now?" Phil asked. A projection of a Shadow Man was projected.

"So you're finally facing a bit of reality warping, see when an organic lifeform goes into a dimension like this the experience animi- animefic- pfft ah ha ha, sorry sorry it's kinda ridiculous." Shadow Man laughed as the duo looked at each other as a take two beeped on. "Animefication, an anomaly where your usual features, especially animalistic ones become extremely human-like with exceptions to your ears." Shadow Man said before the communication was terminated.

"So I'm an anime guy now?" Gumball asked looking down at his hands.

"Holy moly this is trippy." Phil said before shivering.

"You tell me I'm the one more affected by this, you're still bald!" Gumball yelled as phil touched his head.

"Aw man, I like being bald but I was hoping for some kind of new look." Phil said as Mimi stepped up to him looking normal.

"Well where are we?" Gumball asked before looking around and seeing a man in a blue suit and a girl in a purple... Dress? It looked strange to him. The two approached them and saw they were having a sentimental moment.

"Hello?" Phil asked before the two looked at them. The man had spikey hair and a blue suit along with a gold badge, the girl had long black hair and a bun. "Uh, where are we?" He asked awkwardly.

"Uh, this is the train yard." The man said. The girl then had eyes sparkling when she saw Gumball.

"Oh, my god where'd you get those, what store sells them like that?" She asked before pulling on Gumball's cat ears.

"Ow hey stop!" Gumball yelled pushing the girl off.

"W-wait are those..." The man asked as his expression changed to one of nervousness.

"I don't think I have the best explanation for this but I'll try anyways, see it started when he fell into an alleyway dumpster." Phil began explaining all the events that got them there.

-Unknown Area-

Smiley, Zack, and Phred tumbled down into an office from the Pizza Tower II and hit a filing cabinet.

"Ugh, talk about a rough landing." Phred said before rubbing his head and wishing he were in his bed before ending up dead or full of lead and being led into a thread- sorry I-i'll stop.

"Ow, my head and my... Everything." Zack said as the trio watched the door open to a man in a red suit discussing things with a man in a green overcoat.

"Look I just don't believe she did it, she's already been accused twice and what would her motive be to kidnapping her little cousin Gumshoe?" The man in red asked.

"Well sir I have no clue but if you don't some new prosecutors from another town will be handling the case." Gumshoe said, he was the one in the green overcoat.

"Still I think this is balderdash." The man in red said, Smiley got a much better look at him, he had grey hair and was ironically young for having such. She soon found that Gumshoe had seen her.

"Hey little girl how'd you get here?" He asked making the man in red turn around to face her and her friends. The three stood up. "Gah, are you two okay?" Gumshoe asked rushing to Smiley and Zack.

"Yeah, just in pain." Zack said.

"Same." Smiley added.

"Well, one you're on fire literally!" Gumshoe said. "And two, you look sick!" He continued pointing to Smiley.

"Ugh, I need caffeine." Phred said. "And a whiteboard." He added before seeing some tea. "Can I have some of that, trust me it's a very valuable way to understanding our situation." Phred said.

"Hm, alright if it can help in any way I'll allow it." The man said before watching Phred gulp down the coffee in seconds before his eyes lit up.

"Okay, so Zack's the fire guy and he used to be freezing, however after aliens attempted to use him to destroy earth he became fiery, Smiley's yellow because her parents were yellow and her family and Zack's family are weird, they reason we're here is because we're fighting an evil space empire called The Black-Cat Empire!" Phred yelled while drawing everything out. The men looked at eachother and looked back at the children before Gumshoe had a call.

"Hello, she's been found, I- yes but- okay sir." Gumshoe said over the phone before leaving.

-Halberd-

The MetaKnights left the dimension of the Pizza Tower and had with them two new allies joining them, Gustavo and Brick and now they were off finding themselves into a dimension more dimensional than last time.

"So where are we this time?" Mike asked.

"Well we're in some sorta forest mate and-" Blade was cut off by an alarm sound that meant for emergency landing. "Oh bloody Nightmare."

"Attention everyone, we are about to land extremely harshly!" Sword yelled as Charles buckled up.

"Mike you're gonna want to hold on to something." Charles said as Mike grabbed onto a pipe nearby. The ship crashed into a grove and was smoked. Inside the rest of the crew were dizzed by the crash.

"Ugh, is everyone okay?" Banjo asked as Kazooie peeked her head out the window, everything and everyone were thrashed as hell except Brick the rat who was fine.

"Not really." Ellie said. Meta Knight soon warped in and looked at the damage.

"Hm, I saw that due to the crashing into the Pizza Tower must have caused some damages to the ship." He said.

"Damnit Charles." Ellie said as Henry put his head in his hand and sighed.

"Hm, perhaps we can find someone who can help us, Banjo, Kazooie, Ellie, Henry, Adora, Gustavo, and Brick come with me to find someone out here who can help us." Meta Knight said.

"C'mon blueberry I'm still tired from flying after Black-Cat." Kazooie said as Banjo walked with them.

"Mike, I request of you joining us!" Meta Knight yelled as Mike stepped out.

"Jeez, we need new pilots." Mike said.

"I heard that!" Charles yelled.

-New Mexican Badlands-

Darwin, Penny, and Carrie had emerged from the portal into a celebration of sorts in a more three dimensional space that was empty. They soon heard some voices from a nearby hallway before seeing two men, one with- okay you know what it's literally just Soldier and Engi, you know them and love them as well.

"So I was thinkin' about going to..." Engi paused seeing the trio as Soldier dropped his mug. "Shit."

-Badlands-

Scout and Spy were on their way to Pauling to discuss recent events with her before getting a communication from Engi.

"Yo wassup?" Scout asked.

"Scout we have a bit of a problem, remember Eggy, Smiles, Gumdrop, and the others?" Engi said.

"Yeah, crazy few days we've had."

"There's more." Engi said as Scout jumped in his seat.

"Are you freaking kidding me?" He yelled as Spy sighed. This before getting another communication from Pauling. "Ugh, I'll get back to you Engi." Scout said before communicating with Pauling "Hey, what's popping Pauling?" Scout asked changing his originally stressed tone.

"Scout get here now!" Pauling yelled in a panic.

"Woah-ho everything alright with you guys?" Scout asked.

"No!" She yelled back before hanging up.

-Black-Cat Space Base-

Shadow Man and Mania stepped through a portal looking down at the recent catches, a little girl and an old woman, the little girl had been lured by Stuart led by Shadow Man while the woman was taken by the BLU team led by Mania.

"Wow, a little girl Shadow Man, reminds me of a certain rapper who rhymes with "Bake" or "Blake" or-" Shadow Man put his gun to Mania's forehead. "Okay I'll stop." Black-Cat then walked in as the two stepped away from each other.

"So, you finally succeeded at something, I'd never thought I'd see the day that you idiots would do something like this, but now it's time for interrogation..." Black-Cat said with a sinister grin in his voice. The trio stepped down to the two, the older woman was tapping her foot as the child stepped back in fear. "Hello, I am mister Black-Cat, these two are unfortunately my associates who can't get along!" He yelled before going *Ahem* "there are reasons you both are here is as follows, either you have, A: attacked my forces or have wronged me in a way or more likely B: you have a use I can use. Questions?"

"A-am I A or B" The child asked she had light purple robes along with a kind of bun that was an infinity symbol and had a large forehead according to Mania.

"B... Definitely B." Black-Cat said.

"Hmph, seems strange to me that you'd take a child." the old lady said, she had purple clothes and a white part in her hairline.

"Oh, she's an A alright, and with that, she gets this!" Black-Cat yelled as he drew his katana and set it aflame before slashing the hag in the arm as she blocked her face.

"What is this?" She asked before seeing the cut on her arm form a purple crystal on it and started to spread as her skin became grey and Hardened across her body as more crystals formed eventually engulfing her in stone and crystals.

"And another for my collection." Black-Cat said before looking at the girl who was now petrified by his sight only not as literally as the lady he had just slashed. "Shadow Man what's she for?" Black-Cat asked.

"Finally someone asked, see I'm helping Metal prove his lawyer prowess to people by helping him with a kidnapping case, and she's going to tell the court." Shadow Man said.

"So you're going to prove that you didn't kidnap the girl by kidnapping the girl?" Black-Cat asked.

"You see I-... Y'know-... What's really funny is... Excuse me a second." Shadow Man said before dragging the girl away from the room.

"Heh, he's like a rapper that rhymes with the question "did he?"." Mania said before a shoe hit him.

-Train Yard-

Gumball and Phil had explained their situation, well it was more like a shituation that they were in to the two.

"And that's how we got here." Phil said.

"Wow, that's a long story." The girl said not knowing that there were literally three others happening at the same time.

"I don't like how this implies that our universe is an anime called Maya." The man said. "Oh yeah, I almost forgot the formalities, I'm Phoenix Wright and she's Maya." Phoenix said introducing himself and Maya.

"I'm Phil Eggtree, school escapist officiano." Phil said.

"Gumball Watterson, I just want to go home but apparently I have to save the universe." Gumball said. Just then the police came as Gumball, Phil, and Mimi held their weapons.

"What's she called?" Phoenix said pointing at Mimi.

"I am Mimi, daddy built me." Mimi said gesturing at Phil.

"I... I am not her father I don't know where she got the idea." Phil said as the cops showed up.

"Oh, it's just policemen, just here to help." Gumball said.

"Freeze, Maya Fey, you're under arrest!" A scruffy man in a green coat yelled.

"What?" Maya yelled before she was hand cuffed.

"What the what?" Gumball said.

"What the Flozwad, what gives?" Phil asked.

"Maya Fey, you are accused of kidnapping Pearl Fey!" The man yelled.

"Gumshoe, what happened?" Phoenix asked.

"Pearls?" Maya asked, "what happened to her?" Maya asked in response.

"She's been kidnapped and Maya is going to trial!" Gumshoe yelled.

-Outside the Halberd-

Meta Knight, Ellie, Henry, Mike, Adora, Banjo, Kazooie, Gustavo, and Brick all walked into some kind of facility.

"Hm, perhaps there is someone here who can help us in our predicament." Meta Knight said.

"Perchance, however we should remain on guard incase one of our adversaries decides to attack." Adora said as others nodded. Suddenly they heard a roar and then watched as an ape-like creature was thrown into the wall nearby and roared before a shirtless man jumped onto it and wrestled it before snapping its neck.

"Saxton Hale!" The man yelled. In a brash Australian accent.

Everyone in the group was taken aback and were ready to attack except for Meta Knight.

"You there!" Meta Knight yelled as the man looked at them and jumped to them.

"What the hell are you doing?" Mike asked with his gun ready.

"This is clearly a maniac." Ellie asked.

"'Ello mate, name's Saxton Hale, owner of Mann Co." Hale said.

"I am Meta Knight and I-"

"Let me guess, you want to fight me for Mann Co. Well that's not happening mate, I'll fight ya and I'll beat ya the Aussie way, then mounted on my wall, well most of ya, I'm not sure how I can have a man mounted on my wall or whatever these three are." Hale said pointing out Mike, Henry, Ellie, and Gustavo.

"I see, then come and fight." Meta Knight said drawing his sword. Everyone sheepishly took out their weapons and posed for a fight.

"Heh, oi rightey then!" Saxton yelled at the helm battle ready.

-Edgeworth's office-

Edgeworth watched as the trio sat around before getting a call from his sister Franziska.

"Hello?" He asked.

"Can you believe this Edgeworth, they've assigned newbies to this stupid trial and yes multiple, three newbies Edgeworth!" She yelled.

"Who's that Mr. Edgeworth?" Smiley asked.

"My sister Franziska, she's angered about the trial of Maya.

"Maya?" Zack asked as Phred began sketching out some kind of problem.

"Long Story, Maya Fey is a member of the Fey clan and has been framed for murder twice, she's now being framed for kidnapping and there's prosecutors from some kind of inventor helping with the trial." Edgeworth said.

"Edgeworth are you even listening?" Franziska yelled. "No matter I'll lecture you later when I'm in your office!" She yelled over the phone before hanging up.

"Dammit, you three hide." Edgeworth said sternly.

"What's going on this time?" Zack asked as Phred yelled.

"Aha! I figured it out, using the formula I've figured out why we look so different in this universe, due to the laws of this place our forms have changed to fit how this world styles itself meaning that we're going through some kind of "fication"!" Phred yelled as Zack grabbed his collar from behind and dragged him into a closet with Smiley. Edgeworth sighed before Franziska opened the door behind him, he was nervous of her finding out about the children because of what she'd assume.

"Edgeworth can you believe this? These newbies also got here and wanted to see you too!" She yelled as these newbies showed up, There was one that was a robot of grey and red and fairly spikey like a robot from a 2007 movie but smaller, he was shorter than Edgeworth by a milestone, with him was a brown cartoonish creature that was also porcupine-ish and had a scarf, finally there was a boy with a helmet and had a chicken next to him.

"Why hello Mr. Miles Edgeworth I am Serial Code I-18095N but you may call me Ion, these are my cohorts Serial Code S-917K3, or Spike, and Serial Code M-3127A, or Meta, we are Prosecutors of Shadow's Inc a group recently started by Mr. Schlattenmann dedicated to robotics." Ion said, his voice was theatrical compared to most almost like Edgeworth's own voice.

"Heh, that means we're replacing ya, eventually." Spike said.

"Replace, twerps like you cannot replace us!" Franziska yelled.

"That's where you're wrong lady, see robot's like us are more logical, calculated, we don't let emotions in the way of verdicts." Spike said while running around the office looking around everywhere.

"This includes seeing things others don't." Ion said walking to the closet and opening it and pulling out the children.

"Dammit." Edgeworth said.

"Wow kid in the closet, where's the baby oil and- gah, hey owch." Spike said after getting slapped by Ion.

"Show some respect, this is Miles Edgeworth, The demon prosecutor, I have great respect for you and I assume they are... dimensional criminals." Ion said while glaring down the kids. "Anyways, we have a trial to attend." Ion said before he left with Spike and Mega in suit.

"Hmph, so Edgeworth where did you find these kids?" Franziska asked.

"They just showed up." Edgeworth said. Smiley waved then put her hands in her pocket before patting herself and not feeling the Telemension.

"Zack, Phred did you guys have the teleporter thingy?" She asked before they checked themselves.

Meanwhile Ion, Spike, and Meta or in actuality Metal, Sonic, and Mega began walking out of the prosecution offices and left with Stuart following them with the Telemension, Metal then looked up.

"Can you believe this Spike, I met The Miles Edgeworth, I'm also going against the Maya Fey and hence, Phoenix Wright." Metal said.

"Heh, cool, y'know I like Spike, more than Sonic at least." Sonic said.

"Really, can I ask why?" Metal asked.

"Yeah, Spike sounds like... Me, I'm not just a clone of an organic asshole and I'm just Spike." Spike said looking at himself in the reflection of a puddle. "And I like it." Spike said.

"Hm, okay then, should I just refer to you as such?" Metal asked as Mega played with Stuart. Spike thought about it and smiled.

"Yeah, I'd like that... Ion." Spike said.

"Hm, even when I show respect you make a joke." Ion said.

-2Fort-

Scout and Spy had made it to see Pauling covered in blood and panting.

"Hey, Ms. Pauling we-" Ms. Pauling shushed him and drew her pistol and looked inside the fortress before shooting something and making it groan.

"Hm, what is happening?" Spy asked.

"The administrator she was taken by some kind of monster made up of tentacles and BLU was helping with a group of..." She stopped as she looked at Scout's leg being grabbed by the-

"Zombie!" Scout yelled finishing my sentence, Spy immediately shot it in the head then sighed.

"Ugh, that's a part of what we wanted to talk about, BLU team has been working with some kind of force of evil.

"Oh, God dammit, okay Pauling, you need to pull yourself together before Mann Co. Goes down under, even though Saxton is going off on hunting trips!" Pauling yelled in annoyance.

"Uh, we can help, right Spy?" Scout asked.

"Fine, but let me finish my cigarette." Spy said before smoking it and finishing it and flicking it away. "Alright let's go." Spy said as the three entered the fort of wood.

"Alright zombies, come out come out wherever you are." Scout called before seeing a group of zombies with cones on their heads and pointing his scatter gun at them and firing. Spy on the other hand went up to the second floor with Pauling and helped her up before seeing a zombie with a bucket on his head.

"Mierde." Spy said before drawing his knife and stabbing it in the gut. No reaction.

-Badlands-

Darwin, Penny, and Carrie were sat down with Soldier.

"So, you're related to Gumball, and have met Smiley?" Soldier asked.

"Yeah, I'm his brother, Penny's his girlfriend, and Carrie's my girlfriend. We're from-"

"Let me guess Elmore?" Engi asked.

"Yeah, so you've met Gumball?" Darwin asked.

"Demo know's the most with him but Soldier kinda likes you." Engi said again.

"As a patriot I see your brother's contributions to America, I think I can teach you an ancient technique of mine... Shovel-Fu!" Soldier said.

"Shovel... Fu?" Darwin asked.

"Only the highest fighting style."

"Heh, crazy soldier, you'll love him if your brother's anything to go by just don't talk bad about the good ol' states and everythin' will be just peachy." Engi laughed.

"Well what about us, we hardly get anything to do anyways so what now?" Carrie asked before Medic stopped to see her.

"Mein Wissenschaft" He said, "a genuine ghost, I must study you, if you don't mind." Medic said, only adding that last part when seeing Engi's face.

"Pfft, whatever." Carrie said.

"And me?" Penny asked.

"I suppose you can join us." Medic said.

"Or I can teach you rocket jumping!" Soldier yelled with excitement.

"Let's see science or rockets." Penny said as she thought about it, she'd done common sense for too long and nothing about this adventure made sense so she'd might as well make nonsense. "I'm gonna learn to jump with rockets!" Penny yelled.

"Yeah!" Soldier yelled. "Screaming eagles!" He continued with his battle cry.

"Hehehe, this has been a fun week." Engine said as the next group of kids will be trained by two psychos to either learn how to jump with rockets, or medicine. yeah no rockets sound infinitely more interesting.

-Black-Cat Empire owned planet-

Mr. Black-Cat stepped onto a stage with Shadow Man and Mania at his sides met with cheers from kremlings, toppats, zombies, and robots alike. "Welcome loyal members of The Black-Cat Empire!" Black-Cat yelled to massive applause. He watched as they screamed as K.Rool, Zomboss, and Reginald stood on stage as well as Ridley and Rocky and of course Gumbot. "Now before we begin I must state how we've had our hiccups, and by our I mean most of our commanders." Black-Cat said before a Kremling yelled, it was Krusha.

"Then do it yaself!" Krusha yelled before some R.O.B machines dragged him up.

"Ah a traitor to The Empire I see." Black-Cat said to add humor before doing a psych out on him with flaming palms before stopping and snapping making Gumbot grab Krusha by the upper jaw making Krusha fight back somewhat with Gumbot unflinching to the attacks, Gumbot then grabbed Krusha's lower jaw and began ripping him in half.

"The Empire sees no use for disgusting traitorous beings like you." Gumbot said coldly before triumphantly tearing Krusha in half.

"Now that's an execution, like seriously that, that was cool as hell, and it's also true because we are The Empire and The Empire has no use for rusted bits or traitorous cancers like him over there, no because when one of us begins attacking the empire then that one is nothing more than a cancer waiting to spread, and that weakens us, and the Empire should be strong, we aren't diplomats like those cowards at the USKO or any bureaucratic government, no we take and conquer, we don't bow sheepishly to any gods or masters, we instead bring Armageddon to those who fight to teach them and others why you don't fuck with The Black-Cat Empire, and you help teach this lesson of strength with this you are part of and serve The Black-Cat Empire so what do we want for it?" Black-Cat yelled to the audience.

"Long live the empire kill the disodents, kill Gumball, kill all who fight back!" The audience cheered as the others on stage had their fists raised. The speech was quite a good one, it had them riled up, and Black-Cat grinned knowing he's won this battle. No, he's won this war against her, Meta Knight, and Gumball, he's this far now so who can possibly stop him?

Chapter Text

-12:00 PM, Detention Center/ visitor's room-

Phoenix, Gumball, Phil, & Mimi ran to the jail Maya was housed in for the time, they got there and found her in the cell with a single guard next to her.

"Nick, I-I can't believe it, Pearls, she's-" Maya stopped herself as tears went down her face.

"Look Maya, I'll find out who took her and she'll be safe, I promise." Nick said.

"Well I don't feel good not helping Egghead, we gotta help them." Gumball said.

"You don't have to tell me twice." Phil's said.

"Well Maya, looks like you have three people who already believe your innocence so that's something..." Nick said.

"Thanks guys, just promise you'll find Pearls." Maya said.

"We promise" Wright said.

-12:02, Detention Center/ Outside-

The quad exited the center to figure out what happened.

"So we have one option that could have been the source of where Pearl was taken, Kurian Village." Phoenix said.

"Why that?" Gumball asked.

"That's where she lives, now come on!" Nick yelled as the boys and Mimi, good edition, followed suit. They got there and it was a very traditional looking place, eerily similar to a place one would find in Japan.

-12:52, Kurian Village-

"So what do we look for?" Phil asked.

"Evidence, and people to talk to." Phoenix said before bumping into someone.

"Gah, mein gott!" The man yelled, he was in a studious black outfit that seemed to be rich and quite fluffy.

"Oh sorry." Nick said seeing the man, he had black hair.

"Danke, bitte, uh, allow me to introduce meinself." He said. "I am Dr. Schlattenmann of Shadows Inc." Dr. Schlattenmann said. His accent was... convincing if you knew nothing about the German language, unfortunately the four did not.

"What are you here at Kurian Village for?" Phoenix asked as Gumball and Phil began walking off.

"Well I am here to aid my mechanical prosecutors to be working with the detective." The doctor said.

"Ah, that makes sense- wait mechanical prosecutors?" Nick asked.

"Oh yes, see I've seen how most prosecutors are human, and while humans are smart... most of the time they focus on their emotion rather than reason and so I built better, more calculated machines to decide criminals' fates." The doctor said. Meanwhile Gumball was wandering the village and saw a robot walking around with that Gumshoe guy.

"Hey Detective?" Gumball asked.

"Eh, oh hey kid, you're Wright's new partner, heh, snoopin' around huh?" Gumshoe asked.

"Detective, why are you not focusing on- Gah!" Ion yelled seeing Gumball in this form, how could he not see how the boy who wrecked him in Dreamland and had almost scrapped him twice and he could save himself last time but thankfully he had a cover.

"Um, hi, you are..." Gumball asked.

"I am Ion, mechanical prosecutor of... Shlatten Inc." Metal said looking around.

"Gumball... So you're prosecuting Maya, can I ask why?" Gumball asked.

"Well, my idol Miles Edgeworth had been bested by Wright so I took this case to take him down." Metal said clutching his fist.

"Yeah definitely doesn't scream nefarious robot." Gumball said sarcastically pointing out the greys and red lights that screamed evil robot.

"Nefarious, I work for the law, how dare you Watterson!" Metal yelled accidently yelling out Gumball's last name.

"I mean hey you... wait how did you know?" Gumball asked.

"Hm, lucky guess, you looked like a person who'd have that last name." Metal said with faux confidence. "And your name is Gumball as well, so in that case, out of my sight!" Metal yelled shooing Gumball away.

"Yeah, lucky." Gumball said suspiciously. Phil and Mimi on the other hand were walking along a path to find red feathers.

"Pretty." Mimi said.

"Huh, red feathers, usually it's parrots but this one's more..." Phil paused to figure it out.

"Pinkey!" Mimi yelled like a child.

"Find anything?" Gumball asked before leaning back.

"Feathers, but that's it." Phil said showing it to Gumball, it immediately reminded him of that chicken.

"The Boys." Gumball said. "He then began running back to Ion and had his sword readied before seeing a brown blur grabbing him and taking him outside the village it was Sonic and he was proud of himself for doing that.

"Ha, really thought you were going to get a lucky lick did ya?" Sonic asked with his look now more brown. "I'll give it to you, you figured it out pretty fast and by just a feather and an interaction with the theater kid too. I'm impressed."

"I'm going to..." Gumball began getting up before Sonic swiftly kicked him in the stomach making him fall back down while groaning.

"What is it kid, c'mon we're all wondering, are ya gonna slice me up like sashimi or something like that?" Sonic asked. "Or will you just lay there while we kill everyone in that hick weirdo town of your's?" He asked as Gumball began to somehow generate red lightning. "C'mon spit it o-ack-" Sonic gasped as Gumball grabbed his throat and began to be covered in orange, black, and red armor.

"I am going to tear your eyes out and make you watch as I rip everything on you into scrap." Gumball said menacingly as he drew his sword which had become a battle axe. Gumball's eyes were now red and spooky looking, his teeth were bared and he was about to readily execute the robot.

"Look Gumdrop, we'll give back the kid a okay, just uh, can you let me go?" Sonic asked. "I'll even change my name, I actually did, I'm Spike now, see I'm cha- gah!" Spike yelled as he was thrown into a tree by the side and got up to fight.

-2Fort-

Spy looked at the zombie with a bucket on its head that was completely normal before it attempted to lunge at him before he sliced the knife upwards essentially gutting the thing and pulling out of it like it was a girl you just hooked up with and she seduced you and then-

"We get it narrator you can have a pleasant time." Spy said interrupting my story. "Ms. Pauling, with me." Spy said as Ms. Pauling climbed up with him and began running with him checking for zombies. She immediately tripped over an impish zombie that giggled before she shot it.

"Ugh, I wonder how Scout's doing." Pauling said before hearing him laughing and shooting.

"Yeah, eat lead undead, go back under ground smelly, hey pinhead maybe find a better headwear!" Scout continued yelling doing both physical and emotional damage to the zombies.

"Fine, now the intelligence, is what we should be grabbing, correct?" Spy asked before a balloon touched his leg. "What the..." He said before seeing a bunch of balloons rain from the sky.

"That doesn't look normal." Ms. Pauling said as more began grouping around the two, Spy shot the one at his leg immediately popping it before a bunch more started floating after them.

"Indeed, we should go inside." Spy said before going into the base and then seeing multiple zombies. Meanwhile on the inside Scout kept shooting zombies before getting nearly lasered by a blue crocodile.

"Woah, hey buddy calm down." Scout said recognizing it as that Krusha guy. "Hey you're that guy, how'd you get lasers?" Scout asked before seeing balloons float down to him and began to start closing in on him. That's when a robot that looked like Gumball but more liquid-like flew down and transformed its hand into a sniper rifle and shot directly at Scout who ran up the stairs and tumbled into Spy and Pauling. "Sorry." He said.

"Direct focus on Red team, no survivors." Gumbot said as the mechanical crocodilian jumped up, it appeared to have its jaw and upper body connected by machinery and its eyes were now red glass ones.

"Run." Pauling said.

-Process-

Saxton Hale laughed before rushing the Meta Knights. MetaKnight warped away and behind Hale before attempting to slash him but only barely missing. Hale continued by shouldering Gustavo hard enough for him to be rolling, Mike attempted to shoot him in response but was smacked into a tree. Adora then shot sun bolts as Henry, Ellie, and Banjo attempted to push him back to be met with a bear hug and a body slam take down and then thrown into the monkey.

"Ha, is that all's ya got?" Hale asked before getting hit by a beam of light in the back and turning to see MetaKnight and Brick charging at him. "Heh, too easy." Saxton said before punching the rat only for Brick deflecting the punch and continuing to run at the Australian man. "What in the..." He said before punching the rat multiple times in the belly before one of his punches came right back at him and hit him. Mike then walked up to him and readied his gun as blood dripped from his mouth.

"He's beat surround him!" Mike yelled as everyone else got to the defeated Saxton Hale.

"Eh, is that all ya got, well I've got bad news for ya." He said before jumping up and diving for a punch and hitting brick who bounced him off and launched him into the buildings.

"Good rat." Gustavo said before rubbing the rat's head. inside MetaKnight faced down Saxton and drew his sword.

"Mr. Hale, I shall say you have been one of the few to survive a sword beam, however, you have been defeated." MetaKnight said.

"Ugh, I can't just hand over Mann Co. to some borb like you!" Hale yelled.

"I didn't want it." Meta Knight said.

"Wha- then what did you want, money?"

"No, I wanted to fight alongside you, see my group and I are warriors across dimensional planes fighting against a new force taking everyone from dimensions and are planning something much more nefarious." MetaKnight said.

"And where do I fit in this?" Saxton asked while getting up.

"You are one of the strongest men I have seen fight, with you Black-Cat will surely be defeated, and plus as I see you are a man of hunting, he has his own army of exotic minions." MetaKnight said enticing Saxton Hale.

"Heh, all right, you've tickled my fancy Knight, I'll go with ya on this skirmish, and by the looks of it, I'll give ya's some equipment too, I mean you only had one gun ain't that a bite in the arse?" Hale asked before hearing a crash sound and seeing a pot bellied croc, a twig of a dragon, and some people that looked like those stick figures in some kind of armor.

"Why hello, I am King K. Rool, and he's Ridley, and they're the Toppats." K. Rool said.

"We're enforcing The Black-Cat empire's wishes to see that you're exterminated." Ridley said pointing his tail at the duo and firing some kind of laser.

-A Road, no seriously how else can I describe it? Oh wait, how about A Freeway?-

Edgeworth with Franziska and the children were driving to Schlatten Inc. Smiley examined her brass knuckles in her pocket before Zack tapped her shoulder.

"Wha-" she was confused by the sudden tapping from her cousin.

"You alright Smiles?" Zack asked.

"Yeah it's just the fact we lost the dimension thingy." Smiley said clearly bummed out.

"I believe it has something to do with the mechanical lawyers." Phred said.

"Ugh, don't get me started on them, they are creeps and scoundrels, especially with the owner' name, I mean Schlattenmann, how more suspicious can you make yourself out to be?" Franziska said while tapping her side of the door.

"What does it mean?" Phred questioned.

"What Schlattenmann?" Franziska asked.

"Yeah."

"Shadow Man in German, don't know who or what lineage he comes from but it sounds stupid."

"Shadow Man, hey I know that guy, he tried to kill us." Smiley said.

"Hey he did, do you think they may have a relation?" Zack said sarcastically. That's when Edgeworth stopped at the company itself, Shadows Inc. it was a grey building with the company's name in black.

"Alright, here's the plan, you three will go inside as Franziska provides a distraction then you look for the pad you three keep talking about and help me find evidence of something neferious about this company." Edgeworth said.

"Why do I have to be the distraction, you're the Miles Edgeworth, you can distract people just by being in a room." Franziska said. "Besides my namesake has been disgraced for so long now." Franziska said. Edgeworth sighed before looking up.

"Fine we'll be the distraction, together... Sister." Edgeworth said awkwardly.

"Hmph, just promise not to blow our cover." She said while smirking. "That goes for you boys too." She said before taking out a whip.

"Ma'am yes Ma'am!" Phred and Zack yelled as everyone exited the car, Smiley, Phred, and Zack went behind the building and climbed up a dumpster and went in a vent and began crawling through it going through room after room before finding Shadow Man's office unprotected. Zack immediately took out his axe and used it to bash the vent open. The trio then hopped down and began searching the desk.

"Anything?" Smiley asked.

"Just a note saying from Ion, it's talking about some stuff about the case and how... They propagated it." Zack said.

-Red Base, Badlands-

Darwin and Penny were training themselves with rockets and shovels, Soldier had given them an orange rocket launcher that launched them high.

"Higher dammit, make it so you can see those commies from space!" Soldier yelled. Darwin was now falling back down and decided to try something cool, he summoned his hammer and began spinning before slamming the ground and launching himself upwards and then landing. "Amazing fish boy, I didn't know you could use a hammer like that." Soldier yelled.

"Well I just started using it a few days ago so y'know, still getting used to it." Darwin said as Carrie appeared next to him and rested herself on his head.

"I'll say, he knows it so well the first time he used it was to destroy a giant robot." She said before giving him a glare and a smirk as he blushed.

"Well he's already partway there, you there, Abe Lincoln!" Soldier yelled at Penny.

"What?"

"Oh, I get it because Abraham Lincoln is on the Penny!" Darwin laughed.

"Funny." Carrie scoffed at the joke before Penny landed.

"Well, first thing that's first the jumping is on point, you just need to hit a target with this, the Market Gardener, it will kill anyone in your way Penny!" Soldier yelled.

"Anyone?" She asked.

"In midair I should clarify." Soldier corrected himself.

"Oh, well still this is already giving me adrenaline" Penny yelled.

"Alright everyone, we're going to Harvest for King of the Hill, Ya'll ready?" Engi asked.

"Alright, ten Hut" Soldier yelled before they began marching to an RV.

"What do you mean by King of the Hill?" Darwin asked Soldier as he saw Heavy, Medic, Demo, Sniper, and Pyro enter the car with them.

"We just secure a point for a certain amount of time then boom, we win." Sniper said with confidence while somewhat smacking Pyro's shoulder encouragingly.

"We'll kill them all" Soldier yelled as the team sans Darwin, Carrie, and Penny who sat there awkwardly except for Darwin who sat while kicking his feet.

"Hm, not everyday you sit next to psychopaths." Carrie said.

"I think I like it." Penny said with a grin.

"Same, should be a good exercise." Darwin said.

"Whatever you say." Carrie said while rolling her eyes.

-Shadow's Inc. building-

Smiley was looking through stuff before hearing the door open, imminently she hid before seeing a man with dirty blonde hair and a brown leathery suit. He dug in his desk and took out a phone before calling someone.

"'ello?" He asked, Smiley recognized Rocky's voice, his gravely British accent showing. "Yeah Shadow Man, thanks for getting my telemension back, I ought to tell ya havin' to rely on ridley was pretty bloody terrible!" Rocky yelled with joy. Smiley looked around the room before seeing Phred and Zack hiding in plain sight, behind a house plant and behind a bookshelf respectively. Smiley looked at the humanoid Rocky with rage before putting on her brass knuckles and rushing him.

"Smiles!" Zack yelled before watching as Smiley mollywhopped Rocky in the stomach and hit him in the jaw and began beating him.

"You. God. Damn. Mother. Fucker. You. Ruined. My. Life!" Smiley yelled hitting Rocky after each word and continued bloodying him up. "Where is it?" She asked with slight tears in her eyes. Rocky was wheezing and slowly breathing.

"Heh, fiesty little brat aren't ya, y'know I'm feeling just like how you're parents would be, big gaping gash where their bloody faces would be." Rocky laughed before seeing Zack's axe go up to his neck.

"If the next word that comes out of your mouth isn't relating to that pad it'll be the last words you speak you over grown bean sprout." Zack said putting the sharp side of the axe to rocky's neck.

"You don't have the bloody balls to-" Rocky was stopped by a swift chop and hearing it hit the floor dangerously close to his middle finger. "It's in my drawer." Rocky said as he watched Phred open the desk and pulling it out. "Now get the hell ou-" Rocky gasped again for air as Zack hit him with the blunt side of the axe.

"Smiles, the honor is your's." Zack said as Smiley looked down on the man who was a plant coughing up blood.

"No, not this time, not like this." Smiley said.

"Heh, can't kick a dying dog?"

"No, but listen Rocky." Smiley took a knee to the man. "I will kill you, and I will make sure it's ten times worse than this, I will rip each individual rock from your body and bash your head in with each one." Smiley said before getting up and walking out. Zack after her but not before splitting on him.

"Medic!" Phred yelled in the hallway before going into the vent.

"Bloody hell." Rocky said before rolling over and watching people run up to him.

-Process-

Ridley charged at Saxton Hale who caught on and threw him out of the building, meanwhile MetaKnight was fighting off K.Rool who was being unusually elusive by dodging the sword slashes before jumping as a Toppat fired their shotgun at Meta Knight who dodged using his cape and reappeared.

"Fools that you are to use a long ranged weapon." Meta Knight said before a rocket flew past him making him dive to the soldier firing it and cutting open the rocket launcher.

"Heh, if you're thinking that you can beat Saxton Hale with mere bullets then you have another thing coming!" Saxton Hale yelled as he charged after K.Rool.

"Hwa ha ha, see that's where you're wrong!" K.Rool yelled before firing a cannon ball at Hale who caught it and threw it back at the croc who deflected the ball with his gut and collided with Hale in midair with both of them landing on top of the weaponless Toppat soldier.

"Heh, crushing your own men, what kinda idiot are you?" Hale asked as the two got lifted by the soldier in armor.

"Toppat for life!" He yelled throwing them both off of him. Outside of the base Mike spotted Ridley flying around the base. He immediately aimed his gun at the dragon.

"Damn it he's too far." Mike said before noticing a crate of weapons. "Hey Ellie, think you and Henry can get that open?" Mike asked as Henry thought about it.

-Crowbar-
-Axe-
-Bare Handed-
-Mike-

-Axe-

Henry immediately swung the axe into the crate repeatedly and got it open with everything else broken.

"You idiot." Mike said before a blast hit the three of them.

-Fail-

-you should axe more questions, look I'm sorry it's just been a long day and I thought I could bring some humor-

-Retry-

-Mike-

"What do you want me to do throw my shoe at it?" Mike asked.

-Crowbar-

Henry took out a crowbar and began hitting the box. "I- what- just- What the hell are you doing?" Mike asked annoyed before snatching it from Henry and opening it before a bunch of head crabs tackled them.

-Fail-

-How does that keep happening?-

-Bare Handed-

Henry pulled it apart with his bare hands and handed and showed off the loot. There were multiple weapons, specifically a Shotgun that caught Ellie's eye and a knife that caught Henry's, Mike picked up a revolver with engravings that looked strange.

"Look out!" Adora yelled as Ridley swooped down to the group and screeched before blasting flames across the battlefield making everyone move, Adora then shot out multiple bolts of energy towards the Dragon who used his tail to produce a shield to block the attacks and then shot back an energy ball towards the monkey who attempted to counter it with a ball of light but was hit anyways and fell into Banjo who was flying with Kazooie.

"Woah!" Banjo cried. "Kazooie we have some extra weight!" He said.

"Gah, now I have to haul botha you?" She asked before splitting eggs at the dragon as Ellie and Henry charged at him with their new weapons, Ellie was running around him and slid beneath him before shooting the tail machine as Henry slashed at the dragon's leg with the knife. Mike then was hunkering behind a wall before seeing Ridley's tail grab Ellie and his cut up leg on Henry. Mike immediately shot the face of the dragon who recoiled back in pain and releasing Henry who started climbing up the dragon and stabbed the mechanical tail making it short circuit.

"Grah!" Ridley yelled. He shook the Stick people off. "Do you have any idea how much that costs!" He yelled before Banjo flew into him and Kazooie pecked him in the face.

"Go go go!" Mike yelled as the Meta Knights rushed Ridley. Inside the Building Meta and Saxton were fighting back to back.

"Y'know for a knight using a little knife you got skill." Saxton said as he uppercutted a Toppat soldier through the roof.

"What are you morons doing?" K.Rool yelled as he watched Toppats getting flailed about. He then jumped down and started running after the two and grabbing on to Saxton and wrestling him before kicking him into a crate of Medic weapons. K. Rool then attempted to body slam Meta Knight who swiftly dodged it and did a Mach Tornado in response hitting a few Toppat soldiers who hardly flinched. Thats when Ridley broke back in stumbling about and flying after Meta Knight who dodged again but was hit by the crocodile king. Ridley then saw Saxton Hale and then grabbed him and began dragging him against the ground sand papering the skin on the man's back before throwing him into the Halberd nearby.

"Holy Heli!" Charles yelled.

"'ello." Saxton said before seeing he grabbed onto a medi-gun. "Heh, clever me." He said before looking at Charles.

-1:15 Kurian Village-

Gumball looked at Spike and began slowly approaching him, dragging the rigid axes on the ground before speaking. "Will you run like a coward, or fight truly." He snarled at the robot.

"Oh, well I'll finally have a challenge." Spike said in response to his ego bruise. Spike immediately spindashed to Gumball as the armor appeared on him, in response Gumball blocked it with the axes before slashing wildly in a rapid succession forcing Spike to step back as one of the Axes nicked his arm seemingly burning the cut as it swiftly passed through, Gumball then stepped on one of Spike's legs and raised one of his axes up to seemingly decapitate the robot before a voice rang out.

"No Gumball!" Mimi yelled as Gumball stopped and looked back at her, Spike immediately took this chance to kick Gumball off and book it running with what he was pretty sure were a burn and a near broken leg.

"What are you doing!" Gumball yelled before Mimi stepped back scared as Gumball saw his reflection in her eyes. his armor faded off as well as his axes. "Oh- oh my gosh Mimi I'm so sorry, did- did I hurt you?" Gumball asked. Mimi stepped back sheepishly. Back in the village Phil and Phoenix were wandering about as Phil was examining the feather molted by that chicken before seeing Mimi and Gumball walking down the hill.

"What did you two see?" Phil asked.

"Gumball, he was scary looking." Mimi said.

"What?" Phil asked.

"I went into that anger mode thing." Gumball said.

"Oh Dark Knight?" Phil asked.

"What?" Gumball asked.

"Well based on what I've seen from each form I gave them nicknames, Dark Knight, Spell Knight, The Mace one I call Wild Card though because it's just using maces." Phil explained.

"Okay enough about knights, did you two find anything?" Nick asked.

"Well one of the Boys attacked us, wait he doesn't know about them does he?" Gumball asked.

"No I do you talked about them." Nick said.

"Wow, he actually listened." Gumball said. "Well Sonic attacked me." Gumball said.

"Huh, well if he's related to the feather in anyway besides your experiences, no offense but we'll need more than that." Phoenix said.

"Idea!" Mimi yelled before she started to literally tear herself up by tearing off her face.

"Holy mother of Tina!" Gumball yelled.

"Jeezle Pete's!" Phil yelled.

"Holy... Crap!" Phoenix yelled with them. Mimi then started to fiddle with herself before a projection came out of her eye. It was of Spike and Gumball's fight, Phoenix commented, "Gee, you really didn't like this guy did you?" Nick asked.

"He's a partial reason we're in this mess." Gumball said.

"Hm, Mimi can you plug into the pad?" Phil asked.

"You two work on that Gumball and I will continue looking for evidence.

"Alright, we got this right Mimi?" Phil asked.

"Daddy's confident so I'm confident!" Mimi yelled with joy.

-Red Team Car-

"We're here partners!" Engi yelled.

"Yeah, Harvest here we come!" Soldier yelled as the group began their charge and ran into their bunker before running out.

"Let's do it!" Demoman yelled.
"Heeeyaaaaa!" Heavy yelled.
"Yeee Haw!" Engi screamed
"Mphhhh!" Pyro yelled.
"AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Darwin, Penny, and Carrie yelled as they ran into the battlefield to nothing. The feild was empty and barren.

"Huh, there is usually the BLU team for us to fight." Soldier said.

"Ra ha ha, the Blue team, you mean the team on our side?" A screechy voice asked, it was Zomboss.

"Zomboss!" Darwin yelled.

"And I Reginald Copperbottom!" Reginald yelled.

"Uh, Reg, he's not the cat or the kids." The Right Hand Man said.

"Great more creeps to fight." Penny said.

"Well maybe look down!" Zomboss yelled as zombies began breaking through the earth.

"Dammit dammit dammit!" Engi yelled while stepping around hands.

"And how about up, as you can now see, you are beholding the New Black Airship, prepare yourselves for mass destruction!" Reginald yelled.

"We already beat one giant machine of destruction we can do another." Darwin yelled before summoning his hammer and nodding to the others this will be a fight for their lives.

-Black-Cat Space Base-

Mr. Black-Cat looked down at the destination he would be sending himself and the BLU team to, this would gain them a leg up against the Meta Knights and Gumball and would lead to a victory like no other.

"Attention BLU team, you have been lied to for long enough, The Administrator is nothing but a husk now, however you still have the enemy of Mann Co. And Zephaniah Mann, tonight we finish the Manns off!" Mr. Black-Cat yelled. "Allow me to prove that I am a strong leader for you and show that strength triumphs over weaklings!" He continued holding up his sword. He was cheered for before he and The BLU team with R.O.B Machines in tow rushed out to capsules that shot out into space as Shadow Man and Mania looked onward.

"So, what kind of bots do you think will be sent out?" Mania asked as a portal opened with two R.O.B Machines rushing out an injured Rocky.

"Rocky what happened?" Shadow Man asked rushing to the plant.

"*Kaff* damn buggers got me good mate, should've expected as such, maybe I should've killed her." Rocky joked.

"Hmm, maybe we should do that, Rocky once you're good I'll help out." Mania said.

"You'd really do that for him?" Shadow Man asked.

"Yeah, but mostly for the killing." Mania said.

"Heh, like any heartless bastard, all right then, Shadow Man, you in?" Rocky asked.

"Welp, guess I don't really have much else going on, R.O.B no. 2389, heal him." Shadow Man ordered.

"Affirmative." The machine said before shooting off two medi-beams. It immediately healed him.

"Welp, guess we're going to kill some kids today." Shadow Man said before grabbing candy cane weapons and opening a portal.

"It'll be fun, tie up loose ends y'know." Mania said. "And I have a specific vehicle for the job." Mania said with a sinister grin. Among the trial tomorrow, the missions of Ridley, Zomboss, and Black-Cat, and now this, this was sure to be a busy day for the Black-Cat empire.

Chapter Text

-Defendant Lobby No. 2, 12:30 PM, Day 1 trial-

Phoenix, Phil, and Gumball were inside the lobby and measuring their evidence, The portal device, Mimi, the feather, Gumball's testimony, and that was it.

"So, what's the plan?" Gumball asked.

"Well, I have no clue, it's kind of a toss up, we'll have to work with what we have and what they'll give us." Phoenix said. Phil was pacing while looking at the circular pad and figuring something out.

"We can stall!" Phil yelled. "Maybe this is holding something." He continued before examining it.

"How?" Gumball asked.

"Uh, maybe, computer?"

"Please enter password to continue to advanced mode." The machine answered.

"Oh shoot." Phil said.

"Hm, maybe stalling isn't a bad idea though." Nick said.

"Well, if that's our one option then we'll have no other choice." Gumball said as the trio stepped into the courtroom.

-Courtroom No.2, 12:35-

People were chattering as the judge slammed his gavel, he was a bald man with a white beard covering his lower face, he also wore a black robe. "The court is now in session for the Trial of Ms. Maya Fey." The Judge called. After he called the trial Ion donning attire similar to Edgeworth, Spike donning a grey suit, glasses and a toupee, and Meta donning a mug of hot cocoa and Stuart on his head as well as red sunglasses along with a green suit.

"The prosecution's are ready your Honor." Ion said.

"The defense is ready your Honor." Nick said, 'what are they wearing?' He said in his head looking at the three and how they looked familiar.

"Hm, taking a glance our we?" Ion asked.

"I- wha-"

"Please, your facial patterns show that you're experiencing a deja vu to our looks?" Ion asked.

'How could he tell all that from a glance?' Nick asked himself.

"Mr. Ion, may you make your opening statement to the court?" The Judge asked.

"Certainly your Honor, See Miss Fey had lured Pearl Fey away from the village, possibly due to her familiar ties, however due to how Miss Fey's mother had attempted to destroy Maya's familiar reputation she decided to take Pearl, causing her to be missing." Ion said.

"I see." The Judge said.

'This is going to be tough to do, he may pull something on me, I'll have to see what happens next.'

"With this the prosecution would like to present its first witness, Detective Gumshoe!" Ion yelled.

"Hello sirs." Gumshoe said.

"Mr. Gumshoe, I'd like for you to tell us what the official statement of Pearl Fey's kidnapping was." Ion asked.

"Yes this would be much appreciated Detective." The Judge said.

Witness Testimony

-Kidnapping of Pearl Fey-

"Prior to Ms. Fey's arrest Pearl had been missing for two days and was presumed missing on the third, we had heard from another witness that she was on her way to go to Maya's place, however she never came back, our best guesses were that she was lost on the way there however another anonymous tip stated that he saw a woman with the matching features of Ms. Fey had taken Pearl Fey. The Motive is presumed to be revenge on Morgan Fey." Gumshoe said.

"Wow, all of that, just to get vengeance on an aunt, sickening." Spike said shaking his head.

"Mr. Wright shall we begin your cross examination?" The Judge asked.

"Alright your Honor." Nick said.

Cross Examination

-Kidnapping of Pearl Fey-

"Prior to Ms. Fey's arrest Pearl had been missing for two days."

"Hold It!" Phoenix yelled. "Why wasn't a missing persons report filed yesterday or the day before?" Nick asked.

"Well, it wasn't really seen as needed as they just thought she stayed the night at Maya's, but then after she was gone the second day they decided that if she wasn't back by tomorrow they'd call us." Gumshoe explained.

"To Wright's credit, you did leave that part out Mr. Gumshoe, I'd expect better from a detective, however that is the consensus we got from it." Ion said.

'At least he saw how bad the lack of that explanation sounded.'

"Yes Mr. Gumshoe you should add that to the witness testimony." The Judge added.

"All right boss." Gumshoe said somewhat embarrassed.

"A Missing persons report wasn't filed before since they just thought she stayed the night at Maya's place"

"Hold It!"

"Why would they'd be thinking she'd be spending the night at Maya's" Nick asked.

"I'm getting there pal!" Gumshoe yelled.

"Heh, and I thought I was the one pokin' around too much." Spike said while flaunting his spikes.

'Finally someone else speaks up.' Nick imminently saw something interesting about the testimony specifically the anonymous tipper.

"Our best guesses were that she was lost on the way there however another anonymous tip stated that he saw a woman with the matching features of Ms. Fey had taken Pearl Fey"

"Hold It! Who was this tipper?" Nick asked.

"Well he was anonymous." Gumshoe said.

"Of course, Mr. Wright what are you getting at, that some man randomly accused Ms. Fey?" Ion asked.

"Not exactly Mr. Ion, I'd like to ask, why should anyone believe an anonymous tipper, and how would he so accurately state Maya's wear whilst she was kidnapping a child. and what about stopping her, Maya does not seem very strong so why would the caller not try to save Pearl instead of just trying to make a scene?" Nick asked.

"Well, fair point, but that does not prove anything!" Ion yelled.

"Objection!" Phoenix yelled while pointing his finger. "Detective as a requirement of this case being solved I demand you describe the caller as they seem to be integral to this Case!"

"I suppose I could do that." Gumshoe said.

"Yes, you suppose." Ion silently said.

Witness testimony

-The Caller-

"The caller had a thick accent, it was riddled with how a stereotypical German accent sounds with all the "z's" for "w's" and that "TH" sound too. He also did indeed sound like a male." Gumshoe said.

Cross Examination

-The Caller-

"The caller had a thick accent, it was riddled with how a stereotypical German accent sounds with all the "z's" for "w's" and that "TH" sound too. He also did indeed sound like a male."

"Take That!" Phoenix yelled, "I believe the man you may be describing might as well be Dr. Schlattenmann!"

"Preposterous! you believe that he'd do something like that?" Ion asked.

"How is that anyway preposterous, he'd be doing a citizen's duty would he not?" Phoenix asked. with a smirk.

"Well what reason would he have to frame Ms. Fey" Ion asked.

"You ask this like we're assuming he's framing her." Phoenix said still smirking.

'He's floundering is this perhaps a Freudian slip?'

"Hmph, I was just using the hypothetical provided by you on this issue, however the baseless claim besides accents is irrelevant. I believe we've toyed around this idea long enough I say we move on to our next witness, we call to the stand-"

"Hold It!" Someone else yelled. The trios looked at the next witness. "I don't think I have to introduce myself now do I?" He asked.

'Oh God' Phoenix thought, as back in school they always said, when something smells, it's usually the Butz.

-Harvest-

Darwin, Carrie, Penny, and the RED team all were surrounded by the undead, Zomboss and Reginald laughed at this predicament of them.

"Wait a minute." Darwin said. "We have guns and stuff we can fight them off."

"He's right, true patriots don't cower, ATTACK!" Soldier yelled as he drew his shotgun and fired it at a zombie's face. The rest of RED started attacking with them. Heavy revved up his minigun and began mowing down zombies.

"Jarate!" Sniper yelled, throwing a jar of piss into a group of the undead disgusting them before carving them up with his machete. Engi built a sentry with Demo and pyro by his side as the burned and blew up zombies into piles of ashes. Darwin ran around the zombies before taking out the rocket jumper and shooting himself upwards, he then took out his hammer and began spinning on his side before launching himself again and charging for the two in the flying machine and almost hitting them before being deflected by a forcefield and slowly sliding off it.

"Ha hahahahaha! Thought I'd let that happen again you stupid little fish, no fool, I'm too smart for that!" Zomboss yelled while laughing as Darwin fell but was caught by Penny who was flying by. She flew past multiple zombies who reached for her before she performed an arion roll and dropped off Darwin.

"You good?" She asked before dodging paintballs from a foot soldier zombie.

"Yeah I just need a boost." He replied before looking at the Black Airship.

"Mu hahaha! How pleasant, Right Hand Man kill that fishy fish!" Reginald laughed.

"On it Reg." The Right Hand Man said before flying over to Darwin and Penny.

"How wonderful, we're winning!" Reginald laughed before Zomboss tapped his arm making him recoil to the sight of a ghost.

"Boo." Carrie said before transforming into a nightmarish creature scaring the two and making them attempt to flee. Back on the ground The Right Hand Man landed to Penny and Darwin and looked at them.

"'Ello." He greeted before firing a laser from his eye making the duo dodge by ducking and covering. "Eh, just stand still." He said, again firing another laser at Darwin who threw his mallet at him as it split the beam multiple ways and hitting him in the face. "Gah, bloody hell!" He yelled before clutching his face. Penny then began whacking him with her shovel via rocket gliding past him. Darwin got up and then rocket jumped over the Right Hand Man and saw the machine Zomboss and Reginald were piloting and started spinning before slamming down on the forcefield and bouncing off and sending them into the ground and him at the Airship.

"I'm gonna make it!" He yelled. "I'm gonna make it!" He yelled again before Gravity began to set in as he reached the hill. "I'm not gonna make it!" He yelled before getting slammed into it by the leg by a zombie with a jetpack and mustache.

"Haha, I Rustbolt shall end you now Darwin Watterson! I'll have that, sweet, juicy, delectable brain in no time." Rustbolt said while slobbering about the brain.

"Hey I don't think I'm that brainy." Darwin said trying to deter him.

"Nonsense, that big head must have a big brain inside." Rustbolt said before Darwin saw a smokey ball coming towards them at Great speed.

"Um, my big brain is telling me that you should move a bit." Darwin said.

"Ha, like a distraction can fool me, for I am-" the ball crashed into them and broke into the Black Airship, Darwin got up and saw the R.O.B machines typing on computers before looking at him.

"Uh, hey?" Darwin said while smiling before hearing electric sounds behind him. He saw the smoke disappate and revealing the two masterminds of it coughing.

"Oh, oh dear." Zomboss said seeing Rustbolt's twitching leg.

"Gah, run away!" Reginald yelled.

"Well, get Him!" Zomboss yelled at he began running. the R.O.B Machines started to start coming after Darwin who took his mallet out and saw Carrie come to his side.

"Bust some bots?" Carrie asked.

"Yeah, bust some bots." Darwin said nervously before charging. On the ground Penny glided past the Right Hand Man and slapped him with the Market Gardener again before he grabbed her leg and slammed her into the ground.

"I've had about enough of you." The Right Hand Man said before his eye glowed which scared Penny making her turn into a mouse and scurry off. "What the? Oi get back 'ere!" Penny ran past zombies, zombies and more zombies before reaching Heavy and Pyro and transforming back.

"It's pandemonium out here." She yelled before ducking a zombie swing and swinging back, punching his gut then kneeing him in the face and then poking his eye out.

"Heavy fought stronger babies." Heavy said mowing down zombies by the bullet.

"Yeah, fair enough." Penny said. She then had an idea.

"I need to be angry!" She yelled.

"I have plan for you if that's your desire, but it is very... not good." Heavy said.

"Go for it." Penny said.

"Are you really really really sure?" Heavy asked. "It is very gross."

"I'm going to need it." Penny replied.

"Heavy I'm not going to throw Jarate at her!" Sniper yelled.

"Oh, hm, can you make a Sandvich?" Heavy asked before Penny transformed into a Dragon.

"Holy moly." Engi said as Demoman took a look in his bottle.

-Process-

MetaKnight was fighting multiple Toppat and Kremling soldiers at once, he jumped off one and slashed another's helmet in half leaving the face undamaged.

"I'm alive, I'm alive!" The Toppat member yelled before Ridley broke back into the building and landed on him while snarling.

"Knight!" He called out. "I'm going to tear your flesh off slowly and painfully." He said while clutching his fist. Immediately he fastly flew at the borb and attempted to snatch him up using the mechanical tail before it malfunctioned and stayed open. "Dammit." He said before dodging slashes from MetaKnight and attempting to fire a laser to him before he was slashed in the mouth and kicked Ridley before K.Rool Jumped to him and shot out a cannonball before seeing it cut in half by a sword beam.

"What the- Gah!" He yelled as MetaKnight jumped off K.Rool's head and flew into the hole left by Ridley and left.

"Don't just stand there after him!" Ridley yelled before chasing after him and the Toppats ran out with K.Rool behind them and saw the Meta Knights.

"Well, what I see is two options for you punks." Mike said. "Either surrender, or we fight." Mike said.

"Toppats for life!" One of the soldiers yelled before charging at the group. Mike immediately shot the glass eye hole and killed the one coming after him. Banjo tossed one that attacked him while Gustavo sicked Brick onto another. Henry looked in his pocket and saw a device that was labeled "Electro-Sapper" once he was almost punched by a soldier he put it on the guy and it started deactivating the suit.

"What the?" He asked. "I can't move!" He yelled Adora was up against K.Rool and shot out sun bolts chasing after the croc who began running off and got out his helicopter backpack and started flying off leading to Mike shooting the thing causing it to fall as K.Rool screamed. The defeated soldiers were then portaled out of the danger.

"Alright, now Ridley." Mike said as the others nodded. Banjo, Kazooie, and Adora flew after the Barney ripoff. In the Forrest Ridley flew after MetaKnight who was flying away.

"Found you Knight." Ridley said before his mech tail started charging a laser blast. "Now Die!" He yelled at it fired but something stopped it. Saxton Hale, but he was glowing red. "What the?" Ridley said as he was forward arieled downward into the ground and Saxton Hale grabbed the dragon by the tail and spun him against a tree before Charles ran up Saxton's shoulder and knee'd Ridley in the face.

"Haha, good one ya scrawny little fella." Saxton said Patting Charles on the shoulder before they turned back to normal colors.

"Good work Saxton, and you too Charles." MetaKnight said as he landed down and shook their hands as the other Knights ran to them.

"Oi, who's this guy?" Sword yelled.

"He's a guy we're working with now." Mike said.

"Grr, you will not win Knight." Ridley said weakly. "The Black-Cat empire, they will pay me my units, and I will gain more from all of your deaths." He continued. He was then portaled out of the battle.

"Well, what now?" Saxton asked.

"We now shall venture into the unknown and find people to help us on our quest!" Meta Knight yelled as he held his sword high and his honor ever higher!

-Edgeworth's car, 12:00 PM-

Edgeworth was on the road as Franziska was ruffling through his glove box, he hoped she wouldn't find some cassettes that were less than classy but he enjoyed them nonetheless.

"Scheiße!" She yelled as she saw a pistol in it.

"Don't touch that just leave it, you can never be too careful with something like that." He said before looking back at the children covered in blood.

"So what happened?" He asked.

"There was the man, he... He ruined my life, he killed them." Smiley said.

"So you killed him?" Edgeworth asked appalled.

"No, I just beat him close to it." She said.

"Smiley, you can't just kill who ever has wronged you, believe me, if you don't mind, my father was killed by my late mentor causing an infamous case, unsolved for almost fifteen years, my mentor was a monster and a murderer, clouded my judgement, made me into the monster prosecutor I was known as for a while." Edgeworth explained. "The law is sacred and people like me, Franziska, Mr. Wright, and many others are supposed to uphold it, and we can't let ourselves break it, and while I don't know if you're going to become a lawyer, or prosecutor, I see that you want justice, and justice cannot come from bloodshed." Edgeworth continued as they made it to the courthouse.

"Well this is akward." Zack said. "Wait what is that a woodpecker?" He asked as Mania jumped down on the car.

"Here's Johnny!" Mania yelled psychotically before readying to stab Edgeworth through the glass before he opened the door and jumped out as a sharpened tentacle Pierced through the windshield and the head rest and nearly Phred.

"Okay I'll just leave the car." He said before exiting with Smiley following. Shadow Man immediately shot at them with his candy cane shotgun.

"Mwee hee hee, you're gonna die today." He said.

"Oi, not if I kill them after!" Rocky yelled shooting a pistol that hit the car a couple of times causing Franziska and Zack to leave, the latter drawing his axe from his back and the former grabbing the gun from the glove box.

"What are you gonna do, shoot me?" Mania asked before Zack Swung into his side. "Gah, that hurts me now?" Mania asked as Franziska handed the gun to Edgeworth.

"Here take those two." She said ducking under the car.

"On it, you two, with me." Edgeworth said before running with Smiley and Zack to the building Shadow Man and Rocky held up they ran up steps. "Hold It!" He yelled to them.

"Eh, oh Mr. Edgeworth, how pleasant, y'know my son idolizes you a lot. So what's the secret weapon, a gun or..." Shadow Man said. Edgeworth immediately thought of the Shadow's demeanor and how he described his son as a fanatic, he was peicing it together, he was some of the key to this Case, but also part of the knife, he was a key to the knife which was also a key but not really but yes actually and-

"Get on with it!" Edgeworth, Smiley, Shadow Man, Rocky, and Phred yelled.

"Eureka!" Edgeworth yelled, "the weapon we have to fight back is that!" He said pointing at the courthouse.

"What the court- AHHH Shit!" Shadow Man yelled as he was shot in the shoulder as Smiley bashed Rocky with the gun. Edgeworth grabbed Shadow Man and began dragging him to the court. Zack and Franziska were still having some troubles as Zack was pinned to the hood of the wrecked car. he then saw a salt packet and grabbed it then opened it and got some of it in Mania's eyes.

"Gah, shit My... Fucking, *Hrg* Eye, you little shit when I get my hands on you I'll put you into a cheese grater and- Wah!" Mania yelled as he fell through a portal from Smiley. She and Zack were dragging Shadow Man and nodded to the other two.

-2Fort-

Scout, Pauling, and Spy stood in fear to Gumbot and Krusha in the main RED spawn room before running down the stairs to the intelligence and getting tripped up by blue balloons. Spy shot through most and led Pauling while Scout was looking behind and shot Krusha who minorly flinched at the shot and began walking down the stairs while Scout tripped on a balloon and fell down the stairs past Pauling and Spy.

"Scout!" She yelled.

"I'm fine." Scout said before picking himself up and taking out a Bonk Cola and chugging it and running back at Krusha who punched him to no avail and was knocked over but before Scout could hit Gumbot the robot flew past him and turned invisible and flew to Spy and grabbed him by the throat.

"Gah, you still lack one counter." Spy said with his voice strained. He immediately placed a Sapper onto the robot who recoiled as the Sapper did damage. "Ha, you were bested by the Spy, no machine can win against me!" Spy yelled before Gumbot grew ears and then after they went over his head resembling a helmet in which a wrench came from his arm and he started hitting the sapper off. "Oh, Mierde." Spy said before Gumbot kicked him to the ground. his arm grew to a cannon and he aimed it at the fallen Spy. Spy closed his eyes before seeing him stopped.

"New directive, take you three as prisoners." Gumbot said as Krusha walked in with Scout in his arms. "Krusha take them to the prisoners cells." Gumbot ordered the ever obedient Krusha who opened the portal to the Black-Cat Space Base Prisoner Cells and shaking the three down before they were tossed into a new environment.

"Mission completed, reporting to-" Gumbot was cut off by Mr. Black-Cat himself.

"Please allow me, mission complete, Gumbot, you may continue with the next mission." Black-Cat said. Gumbot walked off and went somewhere else. "Wow, so you're the Administrator's assistant, well, Ass-istant cause she's a statue now!" Black-Cat laughed. "Oh look there she is on TV, Ha, oh then there's the kid Shadow Man kidnapped like an idiot." Black-Cat continued to laugh as Scout stood up, the three of them were taller than Black-Cat.

"Hey Maskey, what are you the leader of this crappy joint?" Scout asked.

"Maskey, hm, that's a new one, not sure if I like it, no I don't, what do you want boy wonder?" Black-Cat responded.

"I'm askin' ya, you the leader here?"

"Why yes, I am the ruler of The Black-Cat Empire, and I do own Black-Cat Industries, we have a museum in Daraf, of course a primitive man like you wouldn't know, anyways, you do have valuable information, specifically you Ms. Pauling." Black-Cat said looking at Pauling through the mask.

"What do I have?" She asked.

"Knowledge, knowledge of all of Mann Co.'s secrets, besides Zephaniah, who let's just say, couldn't make it to the party, but hey." Black-Cat said as the TV switched to a channel of a factory line. It was producing robots that looked eerily like the mercs. "He was able to supply a nice flow of robots available to us." Black-Cat said. "One problem is that they were made for Mann Co. guns, and sadly reprogramming them or outfitting them with my brand can't really work for such primitive machinery, they've blown themselves up or away like children in a minefield, disappointing really." Black-Cat said before Scout tried to throw a punch and Black-Cat caught it and twisted it with a fiery grip as a purple flame started burning Scout.

"Gah, owowowowowowowow!" He yelled trying to free his grip as Black-Cat's claws drew into his fist as well.

"Hm, are you going to cry, going to piss yourself like a baby?" Black-Cat asked before releasing Scout who hit the wall and blowed on his hand which was now bloody on his fingers and back on his hand.

"Medic, put bandages on the Scout here and sew his mouth shut if you want." Black-Cat yelled as The BLU Medic stepped in with a bone saw in his hand.

"This is interesting." The Medic said while putting on a mask.

-Harvest-

Darwin was putting the hurt on the R.O.B Machines attempting to swarm him he was hammering them like nails. Eventually he started to run after Reginald and Zomboss who had disappeared into the hallway.

"Alright you feinds where are you?" Darwin asked before seeing a cat walk up to him, it was Gumball but... Something was off. "Gumball?" He asked.

"Negative, I am Gumbot. And you are dead." Gumbot said Before his hand became a machine gun and fired lasers like Bobert.

"Gah, Gumbot what's next a-"

"Did someone say Topbot!" Reginald said as a mecha flew down, it was a combination of a Zombot and some kind of Egg machine mixed with a tank.

"Thought We were going to call it a Zombot!" Zomboss yelled.

"We tried it already and it was unsuccessful last time!" Reginald yelled.

"Both of you quiet, kill him. Gumbot ordered as the TopZom Stomped a foot which was a magnetic tank tread that allowed them to roll around on the ceiling.

"Prepare for a Shocking ending!" Reginald yelled as the tank part fired Ball lightning at the fish and ghost who dodged it as it hit the floor and spread instantly prompting Darwin to grab onto Gumbot who attempted to get him off and threw him into the ZomTop, ugh I still can't make it work.

"Hey get off!" Zomboss yelled making the Mecha vibrate and start glowing red.

"Gah, owowowowow!" Darwin said as he felt the metal get hotter, He immediately jumped and threw his mallet into one of the treads making it lose most of its balance and dangle by the other two giving Darwin the opportunity to focus on Gumbot. The Bot was going against Carrie who was attempting to possess him before it hit her with salt knocking her backwards.

"Calculating, activate." He said as spikes began coming from his skin(?) and dodging Darwin's attack before boosting back and retracting the spikes before his ears became wings and his eyes retracted and one came out before it began lifting the destroyed tread and throwing it at Darwin. Darwin reacted by hitting it back with his hammer and into the tank barrel of the ZomTop making it swing about.

"Gah!" Reginald yelled as he and Zomboss rocked before feeling the ceiling begin to cave in.

"Nononononono!" Zomboss yelled as the robot fell and broke past the floor and the Airship. On the ground The Right Hand Man saw this before he was about to hit Penny.

"Bloody hell, I'll be right back." The Right Hand Man said before boosting off allowing Penny to regain her footing. Back inside Gumbot immediately looked down at the two men falling to the ground before Darwin hit him into a wall and ran further into the Airship.

"Alright what do I do..." Darwin stopped as he saw the core, it glowed blue in a glass cylinder. "Woah, this is what powers it?" He asked before Gumbot had followed him.

"Halt, this is the core, this area is highly explosive and-" Darwin cut off Gumbot via hammer throw and rocket jumping in front of it as Gumbot shot the hammer with a laser knocking it into the core. "Error, target missed. Activate evacuation procedure." Gumbot said before opening a portal and pressing the side of his head.

"Danger, danger, danger, begin evacuation!" A computer voice yelled. Darwin ran back with Carrie as they watched Toppats scramble before reaching the hole and jumping out. He pulled out the rocket jumper and jumped from the hole. He then saw the ZomTop being held by the Right Hand Man and immediately had a plan.

"Oi right Reg, what did you fail at this time?" The Right Hand Man asked, he then saw Penny in her Dragon form and was hit by flames. "Gah, damn it, I told you I'd be right back!" He yelled before watching the Black Airship explode. "Oh you've got to be kidding me." He said before Darwin hit the robot out of his hand and into a portal opened. "Ugh, we'll be back." The Right Hand Man flew into the portal.

"Look out!" Engi yelled as a piece of the ship fell onto the the point.

"Bloody hell, where's the BLU team?" Sniper asked.

"I've lost Scout and Spy on my radar." Medic said.

"Not good." Heavy said.

"I think we know what's behind this." Engi said.

"Da." Heavy replied.

-Courtroom No.2, 12:50-

The questioning was just about done, and Ion was fuming.

"You haven't proven anything!" Ion yelled. Phil then looked at Phoenix and back at Metal.

"We've literally disproven all the ways she could've and would've done it!" Phil yelled.

"OBJECTION!" Spike yelled. "You may have proven that she didn't but can you prove who did?" Spike asked.

"Isn't our job supposed to be to prove she didn't do it?" Phil asked.

"She's still missing, so she could still be held wherever Maya is holding her." Ion said.

"Well, I suppose that's true, and since there is no way to fully prove it we may have to-" The Judge was cut off.

"OBJECTION!" A man yelled. Everyone looked to see Edgeworth carrying Schlattenmann who was covered in blood. "This case is more than it seems!" Edgeworth said as he put Schlattenmann on the stand.

"He, he is right, these robots and I, mostly I, kidnapped the girl." Schlattenmann said. Ion looked at his creator and idol covered in blood and having thrown away the case.

"I-i I, your honor I- we, I..." Ion paused, before looking at Gumball, he should've died in that river, he should be dead. Immediately he charged at Gumball who drew his sword and slashed Ion upwards, cutting him in half, as he did Ion showed himself as Metal before sinking into a portal as well as Meta, Spike, Stuart, and Schlattenmann with Edgeworth while laughing.

"Ha, if I'll go down I'll take you with me!" Schlattenmann yelled dragging Edgeworth down.

-Black-Cat Space Base-

Shadow Man fell onto the floor with Edgeworth besides him.

"Ugh, where the hell am I-" Edgeworth was interrupted by a slash to the back from Black-Cat.

"Bad day?" Shadow Man asked.

"Well you tell me, the case failed, the Airship was destroyed, and now Metal is too, most of our forces are in critical condition." Black-Cat said with a growl. He looked at Metal as Gumbot picked up the pieces and looked at Shadow Man who nodded.

-Shadows Inc-

Shadow Man looked at the new robot shell for Metal, this was a new form for him.

"Rise my boy, you are now no longer Metal, instead..." Shadow Man paused as the robot arose.

"I am Ion." Ion said with anger, he freed himself from the table before boosting off into the next mission, the mission Gumbot had sent as, Operation: Masters

Chapter Text

The Black-Cat forces were all in hospital beds being tended to by Nurse R.O.B machines with Black-Cat and Gumbot watching.

"Sir, shall I attend the next mission?" Gumbot asked.

"Ah, right on it I see, yes please, go on, don't fire a hammer into any cores though."

"Yes sir." Gumbot replied as a portal opened up behind them. The robot stepped through as Z approached Black-Cat.

"So, my next order of business?" Z asked.

"The next order is to hunt those other kids down, like you were supposed to with Gumball." Black-Cat said looking over to Z.

"Well my contract had a clear statement that I don't kill kids." Z said again.

"Wow, a killer with morals, how wonderful, where have you been as well?" Black-Cat asked.

"You're not my only contract." Z said.

"Oh really, am I not the highest bidder?" Black-Cat asked.

"In funds, yes you are, however I gained some tools for the last job, and some personal things sorted." Z said.

"Hm, well how about this, Shadow Man located another two crystals, Gumbot is currently with our contact now discussing the plan, you're going to find the one located inside this mountain, kill anyone and anything that gets in your way." Black-Cat said.

"I'll prefer a less bloody route." Z said before opening his own portal. It was a different color from the Black-Cat Empire usual green, it was a violet-indigo color.

"What is that?" Black-Cat asked.

"An upgrade from my last job." Z said before leaving.

-Unknown Location, 20XX-

Gumbot stepped through the portal, he saw himself in a desolate landscape with a single yellow helmet in front of him, it revealed itself as a small robot within and it gave him a note, it showed him where the crystal was on a map of the city.

"Target acquired, preparing assault." Gumbot said before boosting to the city. He arrived to mass shock from locals. "Citizens, please clear the area or face punishment." Gumbot said to mass crowds running away from him besides a single man holding a pistol at him.

"Hey bot, stand back, I'll call him in." The security guard said as an ear piercing noise hit the city and Gumbot's "accomplice" arrived, he was in a blue and yellow capsule revealing his face, he had a square jaw with an anti-Mohawk.

"Nyar har har, so you're the robot he said would assist me." The doctor said.

"Do-do-" The guard stuttered over himself as he saw the man Gumbot was brought in to help.

"That's right Dr. Wily at your service, robot state your name please." Wily said.

"I am Gumbot, I am next in line of Black-Cat industries and Mr. Black-Cat's top robot." Gumbot said.

"Excellent, well Gumbot please carry on." Wily said.

"Citizen please move or I will be forced to exact measures onto you." He said.

"I don't think you will!" A voice yelled out. Gumbot turned his head around to see a man in blue armor and a literal hand gun.

"Name please." Gumbot said.

"Heh, what's this Wily, one of your new inventions?" The man asked.

"Oh where are my manners, Gumbot this is my other arch rival-"

"Mega Man, I am Gumbot, and I will only say this once, stay out of the way." Gumbot ordered.

"You'll have none of that with me." Mega Man said. Gumbot immediately responded by switching his ears to form a pair of scissors and throwing it at Mega who slid underneath them. "Cut man?" Mega asked as he began charging a buster shot. Gumbot countered it by switching to a different mode, he had his ears form a hat and began running past Mega who shot at him but missed and was knocked over and shot with scatter gun bullets that bounced off his armor.

"Subject is as expected, durable, activating advanced weapons." Gumbot said as he turned his arm into a rocket launcher and fired. Mega ran past it and rolled away and continued firing before getting landed on by Gumbot and pinned down by his right hand. "Super Arm activated." Gumbot said as Mega aimed his other hand turning it into a buster and pointing it at Gumbot who grabbed it and began tearing it off.

"AAAAARRRGGGGGG!" Mega screamed as his arm was torn off and thrown away. He immediately began crawling to it before Gumbot's ears became a bunch of spikes on his head and he shot a needle into Mega's leg. He screamed more as he was pinned down. Gumbot walked away as Mega Man attempted to pull out the needle in his leg before watching as the security guard ran off. Gumbot entered the store and found a diamond, however he knew it was just a blue emerald.

"Emerald acquired. Escorting." Gumbot said. As he began to take his leave he saw a green portal with two boys and a robot fall out of it. "Accessing situation, Gumball spotted, notifying Black-Cat." Gumbot said as he approached the trio, he had never seen the blue cat before today as he watched him get up.

"Oh, hey, what's... Up, you look... familiar." Gumball said.

"Greetings, I am Gumbot, Black-Cat Industries' future owner and the second in command of the Black-Cat Empire." Gumbot said. "Right now my mission is to retrieve this emerald, however seeing you here now, it is to end you." Gumbot said as Gumball got up and hit the side of his head and brushed himself off before looking at his hands in astonishment.

"Wait I'm back to normal, Phil we're back to normal isn't this great!" Gumball yelled while shaking Phil and completely disregarding Gumbot's statements.

"Did you not hear a single thing I said?" Gumbot asked.

"Oh yeah Gumby right, here to... I'm hoping for a help, feeling help, strong sense of help, Mimi, Phil any second opinions?" Gumball asked as Phil shook himself off and looked at Mimi who pointed at Gumbot.

"Gumball that's an evil clone robot if I've seen one." Phil said as Gumbot readied himself for battle and looked at the trio, Phil immediately took out his pistol and Gumball his sword. Gumbot responded by charging at them and turning his hand into a buzzsaw to swing at Gumball who blocked it and parried it as Gumbot switched it into an axe and swung it down on Gumball who dodged it and slashed him in the back doing nothing but making sparks fly as it slid against the metal.

"Okay not that then." Gumball said as Phil and Mimi shot him also to no avail as they just bounced off of the robot who made a mounted shoulder cannon and fired off multiple bolts of lasers in a Gatling motion that the trio dodged. He was then hit by a buster shot and looked down to see Megaman still fighting. Gumbot descended down to Mega and had his ears become a helmet and mouthpiece before he ripped out a piece of ground and was ready to bring it up on Megaman before a bolt of electricity hit him and dispersed throughout his body and dissolved into cubes.

"rrg" Mega groaned as Gumball and Phill walked up to him with a man with a helmet with a lightning bolt on it before blacking out.

-Halberd-

MetaKnight looked down at a mountain with a gaping hole inside, he then closed his eyes and sensed an aura, the aura of a child. Immediately he flew down as Adora, Mike, Henry, Banjo, Kazooie, and Ellie saw him and went with him.

"Saxton, Gus, you two watch the ship!" Mike yelled. He then was grabbed by Banjo who jumped with Kazooie to follow MetaKnight as Adora descended with Henry and Ellie following MetaKnight into the mountain and into its crevice. They landed on a bunch of yellow flowers.

"What the..." Ellie said as Adora dropped her and Henry off Banjo meanwhile had landed smoothly and released Mike.

"Guh-huh, another successful flight!" Banjo yelled. They saw MetaKnight walk into the large door nearby.

"Oh, neat." Banjo said as the Meta Knights followed suit. they continued walking before a flower schlooped up into the surface and looked to them.

"Howdy... ya'll, I'm Flowey, Flowey the flower and welcome to the Underground... guys." The flower said with a greeting. "Say you don't all look like humans, it's almost like you're not supposed to be here." Flowey said.

"You're half right." Mike said. "We're from dimensions outside of this one." Mike said.

"Universes actually." Ellie corrected with a grin.

"Oh, an alternate universe how... charming, well if you're going to be here you should learn how things work here." Flowey said as a heart shaped object flew from the Knights, all red. "Huh, you all have human souls, but most of ya don't look human. That's funny." Flowey said as spinning objects came from behind him. "These are friendlyness pellets and they help you." Flowey said. They flew towards them before MetaKight warped away.

"Fool!" He yelled before cutting the bullets.

"Hey it wasn't your turn!" Flowey yelled before shooting out more pellets that Meta was filleting them.

"These are bullets." The Knight said before the knights drew their weapons.

"Gee, we have a smart fella here, fine I'll admit, here it's kill or be killed and since here no one likes outsiders." Flowey said. "However I'll be first to kill ya-AAAAAAAH!" Flowey yelled as Ellie kicked him from his place and away.

"All right MetaKnight why are we here?" Mike asked.

"I sense something here something or someone who can help us on our quest, a determined spirit.

-Deep within the Underground-

Z stepped within a castle covered in flowers and shining within a light before checking his wrist and looking at a screen locating the emerald. He trekked onto the flowers before seeing a giant goat and a child in a blue and purple sweater. He pressed a few buttons on his glove that activated an invisibility cloak and pressed a button on his mask that activated an infrared vision.

"Think of it as going to the dentist." The goat said as he raised his trident making Z exit his stealth mode and grapple the child's sweater and pull them away. "Hm?" The Goat murmured confused before Z began shooting at him making the goat jump back and spin his trident to block the bullets. "Who are you?" The Goat asked.

"Not your problem unless you tell me where the emerald is." Z said.

"Emerald?" The goat asked. "Is this why you're impeding my-"

"Execution, no, personally I find it wrong to kill a child, and my sensor says the gem I'm looking for is a long ways away." Z said.

"Well it takes guts to mess with the king of the monsters, but if you're planning on harming anyone I'll sadly have to stop you." The king said before fire immediately shot out at Z making the bounty hunter dodge and raise a shield blocking the flames before a shoulder mounted grenade launcher fired a grenade at the king who looked at it before it exploded. Z then ran forward with his gauntlets releasing blades that he swung down before being slashed with a blue scythe which knocked him back and made him clutch his chest before he was pinned by the butt of the Trident. "I'm sorry that I'm required to do this, but it's for the good of my- guh!" The king yelled as vines wrapped around him and subdued him.

"Phew, that was close, Howdy I'm Flowey, Flowey the Flower, and I saw you were learning the way things work, kill or be killed, and aren't you lucky, see, I saw how you fared against Asgore and thought hey maybe we could help each other out." Flowey said before winking.

"Alright Flowey, I'll bite what do you want?" Z asked.

"Well, see this guy over here, I was gonna kill 'em but now I worry there's some threats in my way, and you seem like a guy who's taken lives before, so I specifically need you to kill a monkey, an old man, two... very thin people, a bear, and a ball thing with a sword." Flowey said. Z looked at him and immediately looked at the Black-Cat fugitive database seeing the descriptions matching the Meta Knights. Z decided that this flower obviously had some kind of trick up his sleeve but decided to oblige but not before calling in Shadow Man and Mania.

-Unknown Location, Error, location not in databanks-

Smiley landed on her feet as Phred and Zack followed, they were outside a grey building with two yellow doors. There was a single label marked with marker saying it was a "Schoolhouse".

"Is- is that comic sans?" Zack asked.

"Why is it diagonal?" Phred asked looking at it in an angle.

"I have no clue maybe we should..." Zack stopped as he turned around to see a void behind them. "Leave."

"Welp let's go inside." Phred said as they opened the doors. Inside was a man wearing green and only had a single hair.

"Oh hi, welcome to my schoolhouse." He said.

"Oh, this place is yours?" Smiley asked.

"Yep, Baldi's Basics in Education and Learning, that's me!" Baldi said.

"Heh, Baldi." Phred chuckled.

"Phred." Smiley said as she elbowed him in the shoulder.

"C'mon Smiles, it's kinda funny." Zack said.

"I heard your friend lost all his noteboos across his classes since he was on a rush to Eating Practice. two of them are in the rooms with blue doors get them to receive a special reward.

"Oh wow, a reward?" Smiley asked. She immediately ran to one of the blue doors and into the room where the boys and her were teleported to a black void.

"What the actual Fu-" Zack was interrupted by a weird machine dropping on his head "-Ow."

"Answer correctly every question asked to receive the prize, problem one what's four minus two?" Baldi asked as the problem was displayed onscreen.

"Easy, two." Smiley said.

"Great job!" What's three plus four?" He asked.

"Seven!" Smiley yelled.

"What's ten plus ten?" Baldi asked again.

"Twenty!" Smiley yelled. Zack and Phred watched awkwardly, Zack understood this excitement however, she did love school and this was a return to formula for her. Like clockwork they were teleported back to the classroom.

"You did great, come an get your prize, a shiney quarter!" Baldi yelled.

"Wait quarters for every three questions?" Phred asked.

"How many problems have we solved across everything we've done in Mrs. Cophey's?" Zack asked as they both began calculating in their heads.

"Let's just do the next one." Smiley said with excitement as she opened the door and took the next one answering the first two problems before an interesting problem reared its head.

"What's-" Baldi yelled garbage noise as the problem was jumbled into a number soup that was definitely expired.

"I- uh, hm, F-forty two?" Smiley asked as the Baldi graphic slowly frowned and made an angry face. the words saying "I hear every door you open." still in comic sans. They were teleported back and heard the sound of smacking. Looking through the yellow door seeing Baldi slide across the floor holding a ruler.

"Scatter!" Zack yelled as they ran through the two other yellow doors Phred ran to the right while Smiley and Zack ran to the left. Phred was running through the halls before running into a little girl in a red dress.

"Let's play!" She said as Phred was stopped and saw he was ensnared in place and stuck. He saw the jump rope come down and began to jump. "One, two, three, four, Wow great job!" She yelled as Phred saw Baldi chase after Smiley and Zack.

"Alright just find Note... boos." He told himself as he walked deeper inside. Smiley and Zack meanwhile were running from Baldi before seeing a man with black eyes slide to them and grabbing Zack.

"No running with fire in the halls." He said before teleporting with Zack into a place unknown to Smiley who was screaming and pulling her hair. She looked to see Baldi still chasing her before she turned a corner and looked through lockers before going inside one. She covered her mouth and watched as Baldi passed her. She sighed before exiting and running. Zack however was now in detention waiting and tapping his foot.

"Well this sucks." He said as he leaned on the door before it opened and he fell out. "Ow..." He said before getting up and seeing a blue door. "Huh, I guess my luck's turning around.." He said, the problems were easy besides the garbled jumble of numbers and he left before seeing a green thing in the distant halls. "What is that a woodpecker?" He asked before getting caught by the thing which was actually a green broom and not a woodpecker that pushed him through the halls.

"GOTTA SWEEP SWEEP SWEEP!" It yelled as Zack was pushed through the halls screaming.

-Uknown Location-Error Not in data banks-

Darwin, Penny, and Carrie found themselves in a plains area, it was strangely peaceful for their kind of adventure.

"Well I guess we just rest here." Darwin said taking a seat before hearing another portal open and seeing a grey robot with a singular red eye slam down onto the ground.

"Oh, great, another robot." Carrie said.

"Oh, you don't remember me, the robot who showed the plants your bounty?" Ion asked.

"Wait... Metal?" Darwin asked.

"Well not anymore thankfully, I am Ion now, and today I'll make sure to record your slow painful deaths and broadcast them to Gumball for what he did to me!" Ion yelled. Immediately he charged at Darwin who jumped to the side yet got his leg knocked by one of Ion's claws making him bleed.

"Gah, shoot." He said as Ion's head rotated towards him and his body rotated as well before he pulled out a ball with Shadow Man's face on it and threw it at Darwin which Penny caught as it popped open covering her in black goo that was the same feeling as hand sanitizer on a cut. she shook herself trying to get off the goop and saw Ion boost towards Darwin who limped away and took out the telemension and opened a portal to another universe in which Carrie pushed Penny through, they ended up in a comic styled universe where they looked like warm fuzzy children with big heads.

"So this is how Gumball feels?" Carrie said before Ion passed through the portal looking the same as them before he crushed a ball with fire on it and having a red aura he flew forward in a blazing fireball that burned some of the grass he landed in front of Darwin and attempted to claw him.

"I'll claw your eyes out you stupid little fish!" Ion Yelled as Darwin hit Ion upside the head knocking him away as he looked down each other before a tiny yellow bird bumped into Ion before a frisbee hit Ion on the side of the head. "What the?" He asked before seeing a beagle. He growled making the beagle curl up as a boy with a yellow shirt ran to his dog.

"What's... going on?" He asked seeing Ion. "Good grief." He said.

"Stay out of this boy or I'll- Gah!" Ion yelled as Penny as a bear clawed him with her paw.

"AAAAAAAARRRRRGGGG!" The boy yelled as his dog and him ran off. Penny stepped on Ion still in bear form before Ion Scratched her face making her transform back into her fairy form and clutching her face before Darwin slammed down on Ion's chest with his mallet making a few of the balls he contained within his chassis roll out with Some of the black goo leaking out of a few of the balls. Ion covered his hand in some and grabbed Darwin's bleeding leg making him scream and slam I the mallet on his face multiple times cracking some of the glass. Ion let go and boosted his leg into Darwin's "neck"

"Ugh, Right... in the... rrr, neck." He said clutching his neck before Ion flew back and took out a ball with Gumball's face on it and crushed it this made some blue liquid come out and repaired him.

"Oh come on!" Penny yelled already pissed off about Ion's repairs as she was wiping blood from her cheek. Darwin got up shakily with blood dripping from his leg before seeing a tree behind him. He had an idea.

"Come and get me Metal." Darwin said obviously trying to anger Ion.

"Don't call me that!" Ion yelled drawing his claws and flying towards Darwin, there was a slim chance of survival for him but he needed this chance.

-Mega City-

Megaman slowly opened his eyes seeing Gumball, Phil, Mimi, and the robot with a mask with a lightning bolt on it being Elecman.

"Rock!" His sister with the red dress and blonde hair yelled before giving him a hug. He looked at himself and saw he had his arm back and Rush was excited.

"Roll, Rush!" He yelled before getting grabbed by Roll.

"Don't scare me like that again!" Roll yelled before seeing Mimi.

"Hair pretty." Mimi said.

"Sorry she's kinda-" Gumball interrupted Phil.

"A baby!" He joked.

"Well, yeah." Phil said knowing the joke was accurate.

"Daddy can I have hair like that?" Mimi asked. Roll laughed.

"Your hair is pretty too." She said warmly.

"Yay pretty girl says I'm pretty!" Mimi celebrated.

"Phil, He's Gumball, and she's Mimi." Phil said.

"I already introduced myself." Elecman said as he did do that off... screen, this is a book so I don't know what it could be called. "These are my siblings, my sister Roll, and Brother Rock or Megaman." Elecman introduced them. Immediately a man with a white fluffy beard and labcoat ran in. "Rock!" He yelled before hugging Rock.

"Dr. Light!" Rock yelled hugging back.

"I'm so glad you're okay my boy." The doctor said. "Thank you Elecman.

"Of course sir, I was the closest Robot Master and took initiative." Elecman said. Doctor Light then looked at Gumball, Phil, and Mimi.

"So you fought off the bot that attacked my boy." He said. That's when the computers began glitching and showed a symbol of Black-Cat Industries before showing Wily with a bot in black armor next to him along with Gumbot.

"Nyar har har, hello Thomas, and Gumball, you may not know me but I am Dr. Wily, and my employer has hired me to kill you!" Wily yelled. "But I like to have a little fun, and to have my hand off the controller, so my employer helped me rebuild my robot masters sixteen of them to be exact." Wily said as sixteen faces were shown on the screen. "Beat them and I'll return the gem!" Wily yelled before the connection was terminated.

"Well I guess I'm going out." Rock said.

"No this is my battle." Gumball retorted. "He wants me." He continued. Phil then put a hand on Gumball's shoulder.

"I'm coming with, I mean it's your fault I'm in this sitch anyways." Phil joked.

"Mimi go with Daddy." Mimi said.

"Well I'll go too, if anyone know's Wily it's me." Rock said putting on his helmet. Elecman walked up to them and then looked at the doc.

"Dr. Light, call in the rest of the robot masters, We're doing this too, there's too many for the four of you, we'll help in any way we can." Elecman said as they looked at the computer showing where Wily's robot masters.

-Underground-

MetaKnight and the Metaknights were walking through a bunch of purple ruins before hearing somber humming. "Hello?" MetaKnight asked. The humming stopped and they saw a goat lady in robes.

"Oh, hello there, whom my you all be?" She asked.

"I am MetaKnight, leader of the newly formed Meta Knights." He said bowing.

"I'm Ellie and He's Henry, we're former criminals." Ellie said as Henry nodded.

"I am Adora, Goddess of the Sun." Adora said as her eyes glowed.

"We're Banjo-Kazooie, professional treasure hunters-" Banjo was cut off by Kazooie

"And Witch beaters!" Kazooie yelled.

"I'm Mike, I like pimento cheese sandwiches and that sort." Mike said casually. The lady was smiling but it was a fake "Are you serious?" smile.

"Well, I am Toriel keeper of The Ruins." Toriel introduced herself, she seemed troubled by something.

"Ms. Toriel, is there something wrong?" MetaKnight asked before she brought them to her home.

"No, I appreciate your concern, but I've had time to reflect on things thankfully." Toriel explained.

"I see, reflect on what?" Meta Knight asked.

"Well, lot's of things, many children leaving, divorce, and a recent leaving of a child." Toriel said as she lead them down to the exit. "Go ahead." She said as the group left into the taiga to continue the journey.

-Wily Castle-

Gumbot marched around the newly built castle seeing Wily with the robot masters.

"Heh who's this tin-cat?" A red man with a V on his head asked.

"You are Quick Man DWN-12, Your ability is quick boomerang and your weakness is flash cannon, I am Gumbot, Black-Cat Industries second in command, and your creator's boss." Gumbot explained.

"Well peachy, I didn't know we got a new job from garfield." He joked making the second set of Wilybots laugh. Gumbot immediately glared down Quick man who noticed and smirked before throwing a Quick Boomerang before it was caught and thrown back at him, pinning his body to the wall by the neck.

"Scan complete." Gumbot said. "Gumbot superior, Robot Masters inferior." Gumbot said before walking away.

"Cheap shot." Quickman said before pulling the rang off and freeing himself.

"I don't know." a voice said from the shadows, it was the robot master Shadowman, he was a ninja unlike Shadow Man who was a shadow. "I think I like his style." Shadowman said before disappearing.

"Pfft, you say that like we're not the leaders of our squads." Quickman said.

"Well he just has that aura about him." Shadowman said.

"That's so 202X of you."

"What?" Shadowman asked before seeing Quickman teleport to his location. "Hm..." Shadowman called Wily.

"Yes Wily speaking." Wily said.

"Hey Doc, I saw Quick and the new guy have a spat." Shadowman said.

"Hmph, of course it was Quickman, it's quite alright I'm sure that once we're finished with Mega Man we can take care of Black-Cat." Wily said.

"Careful, they may be watching you." Shadowman said.

"Why would they do that?" Wily said. "I've shown myself as trustworthy." Wily continued with confidence.

"You underestimate their caution, if they hired you they probably ran a few background checks, and if they did that, they may want to give you a reality check, and and that may worsen if you pull anything." Shadowman said. Wily laughed before hanging up, Shadowman sighed in response and looked up to see a hanging decor plant show a red camera looking straight at him. "Such intellect, but so little wisdom, how traitors fall." Shadowman said making a Haiku it was a thing he enjoyed in his free time when he had to acess a situation. Wily was unknowing to the cameras in his plants or all around him in fact, but he was plotting, plotting to betray and take over. After killing Megaman of course, and how hard could it be with the new Wily machine and the sixteen robot masters. He was set, and unbeknownst to him Black-Cat was two steps ahead.

Chapter Text

-Underground 20XX-

Shadow Man and Mania slid into the snowy lands Z called them to after a good healin' from some nurses they landed and found themselves near a Forrest.

"Alright, where's that letter boy?" Shadow Man asked angered.

"Aw, you seem grumpy." Mania said.

"Wow, you notice quite well." Shadow Man replied.

"You must really not like Z if you're talking so lowly about him." Mania said whilst slithering around.

"Well, the man disappears for hours doing jobs our boss hasn't even assigned adds a thing called an "Omniversal Drive" to his new telemension because he lost his first one to Gumball, and he's not chewed out by Black-Cat?" Shadow Man ranted.

"Well you gotta think, he's a mercenary who Black-Cat expects to pay and not have full order because there can always be a higher bidder." Mania said.

"Higher than the richest in the galaxy, no actually the multiverse?"

"Hey, money's not always everything." Mania said before bumping into a tall lanky skeleton. "Eh?" He asked.

"Nyeh heh heh! If it isn't a human." The skeleton asked, he looked at Shadow Man.

"Woah, I'm not a human I'm a shadow." Shadow Man said.

"Oh, my apologies I just thought there was a new human after the first one." The Skeleton said. "I am The Great Papyrus!" The Great Papyrus said, introducing himself to the duo.

"I'm Shadow Man."

"I'm Mania."

"Well Shadow Man and Mania we must keep our eyes out for humans so we can capture them!" Papyrus said. Meanwhile outside their vicinity The Meta Knights exited the ruins and began trekking the snowed lands.

"Geez, it's freezing out here." Ellie said. Adora handed Ellie and Henry a ball of light.

"This should be able to warm you up." She said. The orb had a warmth aura to it rejuvenating the duo.

"Ahhh, that's so much-" Ellie stopped as Henry turned around.

"Uh, is somethin' wrong Henry?" Banjo asked. Henry pointed out the shadowy figure that stood behind them. "Oh, Howdy, what do you need?" Banjo asked.

"Heh, finally a friendly face, someone who knows how to say hello." The figure said holding out his hand.

"Well no problem, glad to-" Banjo was interrupted by a long fart noise. "That wasn't me." Banjo said as Kazooie laughed like a woodpecker.

"Ahh, the ol' whoopee cushion in the hand trick, never gets old, at least on the giving end." The figure said before revealing himself as a smiling skeleton. Mike looked at his hands and then poked Adora on the shoulder as she pinched his nose.

"Oww, oww, stop!" He yelled. Adora stopped as Mike rubbed his nose. "Dammit still not a dream." He said.

"Of course not, heh, you'd think." The smiley skelly said while chuckling.

"Who are you skeleton?" MetaKnight asked.

"Name's Sans, Sans the Skeleton, you colorful characters are?" Sans asked.

"I am MetaKnight, leader of the newly formed Meta Knights." He said bowing.

"I'm Ellie and He's Henry, we're former criminals." Ellie said as Henry nodded.

"I am Adora, Goddess of the Sun." Adora said as her eyes glowed.

"We're Banjo-Kazooie, professional treasure hunters-" Banjo was cut off by Kazooie

"And Witch beaters!" Kazooie yelled.

"I'm Mike, I like pimento cheese sandwiches and that sort." Mike said casually.

"Huh, neat, I'll get you guys deeper into the underground, I actually live in this town. We call it Snowdin." Sans said. Leading the Meta Knights deeper into the underground. "Oop, my brother's coming, you three should probably hide behind those conveniently shaped lamps." Sans said as he pointed to some Henry, Ellie, and Mike Shaped lamps. The three complied as Papyrus, Shadow Man, and Mania ran up to them.

"Nyeh heh heh, Sans you lazy bones what are you doing with these guys?" Papyrus asked.

"Oh, hey Pap, these are some new friends called the Meta Knights." Sans said.

"Hm, Meta Knights, well they're no royal guard but as the apprentice of the head of the Royal Guard I suppose I shall allow their staying, after all with our human friend at the castle by now the underground shall be free in no time!" Papyrus said. That's when Mania Rolled to Papyrus' side and Shadow Man materialized.

"Looks like we've met-a Knight." Mania said.

"More than one more like it." Shadow Man added.

"Well Sans, as your brother and future member of the royal guard I think you should be a member of the Meta Knights!" Papyrus yelled.

"Do I have to?" Sans asked.

"Yes, you should start putting more backbone into your work brother." Papyrus yelled. "Shadow Man, Mania, onward on the search for humans!" Papyrus yelled. Mania immediately started sniffing.

"Wait, I smell something." He said before taking a whiff. "Cheese. Pimento cheese." He looked towards the lamp and sniffed it out more. He inched his head to it.

"Mania you silly goose, that's but a lamp there must be a human in... Waterfall." Shadow Man said nodding to Mania as to say, our mission is the damn emerald you tentacled twit.

"Oh, you're ever right Shadow Man, lets go to this Waterfall." Mania said while growling, he slowly slithering off.

"Welp, guess I'm with you guys now." Sans said before shrugging. Mike, Ellie, and Henry stepped out.

"How... Did they not see us?" Mike asked.

"Papyrus just thought you were lamps, I actually don't know how the other two didn't." Sans said.

"It appears that Mania creature has sight based on motion and sound." MetaKnight said. "Also Sans welcome to the Meta Knights, it is great to have you here." MetaKnight said.

"Thanks, let's just get to Snowdin to get my stuff." Sans said.

"Very well, knights, to Snowdin!" MetaKnight yelled.

"I'll catch you there." Sans said before walking behind a tree and not showing up on the other side.

"I- where'd he go?" Ellie asked while freaked out.

-Schoolhouse-

Smiley had been walking down the halls of the grey schoolhouse while looking for her friends. She then found a notebook and decided to take it. "Oh sweet." She found it and did the problems, failing the last question again. "Rats." She said before walking out and seeing a weird thing with hands and treads.

"I am coming for you." It said before hugging her and pushing her against the wall.

"Ow." She said before running off before being stopped by the principal.

"No running in the halls." He said before teleporting her into the detention room. "Thirty seconds." He said before leaving.

"Damn it!" She yelled before covering her mouth, her anger was evident and she punched the wall... "God... Damn it, why me." She said before curling up into a ball and starting to cry, she was lost in a void, lost her parents, lost her friends, lost Phil, she had lost everything.
Meanwhile Zack had gotten to another notebook and ran into someone, Phred.

"Phred, you're alive." Zack said as he and Phred laughed before Phred's face went pale. "He's behind me, is he?" Zack asked as Phred nodded. "Ruuuuun!" Zack yelled as he and Phred were chased by Baldi running through a bunch of doors, it was like a Scooby Doo cartoon where there were many gags the author was too lazy to write like a little pr-... I'll shut up and continue on... What? Ugh fine I'll describe it. So Zack ran through one door as Baldi chased him as Phred ran out another door, then Baldi was chasing nothing as the boys ran from and into different doors leading to EVERYNAME running into Baldi and being eviscerated immediately as the gag ended with Baldi being chased into a door by Zack and Phred.

"Ha you've been cornered!" Phred yelled.

"Yeah!" Zack added.

"Wait a minute, I should be chasing you." Baldi said. The boys looked at each other then back at Baldi.

"Uh, nuh uh." Phred replied.

"Wha- What do you mean Nuh Uh, I'm the teacher instilling-"

"Jarate!" Phred yelled. throwing a jar at the bald man. he deflected it making it hit the ceiling and break as the boys ran off as the liquid in the jar dripped on the man's head.

"Ooooohhhhhh" He said defeated.

"Wait when did you get that?" Zack asked.

"Well before we rendezvoused here I needed to go and-"

"Stop, I get it, you piss in jars now."

"Well I can't just hold it in a man's gotta go when a mans-"

"ALRIGHT I GET IT!" Zack yelled in annoyance before colliding with an orange potato.

"What, No items?" The potato asked, he was a big guy spanning the hallway.

"Items?" Zack asked.

"Like this?" Phred asked holding another jar, this one empty.

"I don't want that!" The bully yelled. Phred checked his pockets before feeling the telemension. he pulled it out before pressing the button and taking out a quarter.

"Here." Phred said as the bully took the telemension.

"I'll take that it's mine now!" The bully yelled echoing out the halls.

"Smooth." Zack said before snatching the quarter from Phred.

"Maybe we can get it from the noteboos?" Phred asked with an awkward tone.

-Unknown location-

Darwin watched as Ion boosted towards him and Ducked making Ion miss and hit a tree coincidently getting his claws stuck inside it.

"God dammit!" He yelled before Darwin hit the back of his chassis making a bunch of balls come out with Darwin grabbing the one with Gumball's face and smashing it with his mallet releasing the blue gel and healing Darwin's leg before he threw another to Penny who went back into bear form and crushed hit befoer it healed her face and allowed them both to run off and open up a portal. Ion got his hand free and charged towards the trio before they left into the portal.

-Unknown location-

"Oh I'm-a climbing up this towah, you can kiss my ass, well I'm-a climbing up this towah and I'll keep smudging up this glass- Hey!" A man with suction cups yelled before a portal opened and Darwin jumped off his head before opening another portal and landing in it as Penny and Carrie followed suit. "What the hell was that shit!" The man yelled before getting knocked off by Ion and opening his parachute. "Hey fuck you!" He yelled.

"I- how dare you, you may go... Fornicate yourself!" Ion said before boosting to the slowly closing portal.

"Still fuck you Shockwave, you sucked in Dark of the Moon!" The Man yelled before Ion threw a Shadow Man Ball that bursted black goo over him. "Gah, Fuck Ow!" He yelled as Ion laughed and went into the portal.

-Unknown location-

Darwin landed in a mall before a giant bear with a tophat and lightning bolt on his chest.

"Woah, Gregory, this isn't someone I know." He said. "We both know strangers can be dangerous so-" The bear stopped seeing Penny and Carrie come out the portal with Ion boosting after them and grabbing a ball with a lightning bolt on it and crushing it.

"I am going to make sure you die painfully fish!" Ion yelled as he boosted towards Darwin. In response Darwin readied his weapon but Ion grabbed it and kicked him in the face before an electric ball formed in his hand. Ion threw it down at Darwin who rolled to the side and grabbed his mallet before Ion began zipping past Darwins attacks.

"Hold on Superstars we don't have to fight!" The bear yelled again making Darwin and Ion stop before Ion threw another electric ball at Darwin who dodged but unfortunately allowed the bear to be hit. Behind a plant a small boy ran to the bear.

"Freddy!" He yelled. Rushing to his aid.

"Gregory you need to hide, I'll be okay." Freddy said.

"Oh, how clumsy of me." Ion said with a faux apology. "This time I won't miss!" He yelled before a laser hit his optic ball of red light. "Gah my Eye!" He yelled before Darwin wholluped him upside the head and into another portal. The fish looked back and gave a nod to Gregory who gave a thumbs up. Darwin then jumped into the portal which led him into a building made of old wood and filled with black goop, it wasn't Ion's goop though, it was ink.

"What in the-" Darwin was stopped by Ion shoulder bashing him into a shelf.

"I will pluck out every individual scale on your disgusting body before I gut you and throw your carcass around like a plaything!" Ion said. His eye was redder and if he were to have a mouth it would be snarling. "After your brother's vandalized me, ruined my chances of prosecution, and sliced me in half, I'll enjoy his face when he see's your body as a rug." Ion said before Carrie possessed Darwin and made him spit on Ion's eye making him jump back and wipe it off before seeing Penny as a horse jump and kick him in the optic cracking it.

"O'Seven called it want's its robot back." Penny said before seeing inky creatures rise up. Darwin got up with Carrie depossesing him.

"You okay?" She asked.

"Yeah thanks to you." Darwin said with a smile.

-Light Labs-

Gumball walked to the doctor before brushing off his nose. Phil and Mimi joined up behind him. "You wanted to see us Doc?" He asked with a grin.

"Ah yes, you three will be accompanied by robot masters, Gumball, you shall be accompanied by Gutsman and Bombman, construction and Mining robots, Phil, you will be helped by Elecman and Fireman power and waste disposal robots, and Mimi you will be with Oilman and Timeman both experimental but still extremely helpful." The doctor explained before a big green robot went up to Mimi and Phil.

"Uh, boss what about these two's less developed weapons?" The robot asked.

"Oh, I almost forgot Phil hand me your gun and Mimi may I please see your arm?" Light asked. Phil gave his gun in response while Mimi reluctantly held her's out. Light tinkered with Phil's gun and handed it back to him before turning his attention to Mimi as he consoled her and was like a doctor to a child before he began taking out her ammo as Roll brought out a dusty box labeled "12.7mm AP" Light blew on the box clearing the dust before putting the ammo in Mimi carefully. "And there, good as new, Phil you now have plasma bolts and Mimi now has rounds that can pierce through most armor." Light said. Gumbot watched the whole thing from something in the vents. He had his own little projects, Spies that had eyes and ears, this one he called Argonus, she was a small rabbit that was not made for combat but was good at seeing and hearing especially, immediately he called Wily.

"Yellow?" The evil doctor answered.

"I request that four robot masters each fight Rock Light, Gumball Watterson, Phil Eggtree, and Mimi Eggtree." Gumbot ordered.

"Well I suppose it would be wise to give them little breathing room, but what about my plan to reign fire on Mega City?" Wily asked.

"The fire will happen later, what's important is to kill off our obstacles." Gumbot said. "This is simply the most logical and fastest way to deal with it, then you may have your robot boy Bass fight them in their weakened state and if any survivors are left over, then I will finish them." Gumbot said.

"And if you lose?" Wily asked.

"Illogical, I am programed to kill and being dismantled would not be killing, I know their strengths, weaknesses, relationships, everything from the Shadow Banks, they stand no chance against me." Gumbot said as he watched Argonus hop from the vents to her very own little portal warping her back to Gumbot. Gumbot stopped the call as he watched Wily assemble four teams of four.

-Gumball-

Gumball was warped with Gutsman, a robot who was big and burley and wore a helmet and had some kind of mouthpiece, and Bombman, a robot who was rotund and did not look very human, instead having a mohawk and whatever his face fully was, however they were warped to the location of these masters.

"So, you two are robots do you hate working like this?" Gumball asked.

"Like what, we were built for, ha, no I love doin' what I do, if it was between gettin' scrapped or retired, I'll take the scrap heap." Gutsman said.

"Yeah kid, it's what we're made for, without it we're nothing, you can relate to that right?" Bombman added. Gumball looked at the sword he held and stared at it, what was he before it, a wisecrack cat with a knack for insulting people and getting into hijinks with his brother, most of it was never all that important, but now he's dismantling an evil empire with some kid he met by falling in a dumpster.

"Hey I guess so maybe-" Gutsman Pushed him away as a barrage of Needles were shot at him.

"Blast it, I almost had him!" The perpetrator yelled from higher ground, he was a blue bot with spikes on his head.

"Lemme guess Spikeman?" Gumball asked.

"Spikes!" The robot yelled in offense. "Needles, these are needles!" the mouth less bot yelled. That's when a ninja styled robot stepped out from behind the bulkier robot and jumped to Gumball's level.

"So you're this Watterson buy Gumbot's been making a fuss about, shorter than I imagined, but compared to these two you're tiny." The ninja joked.

"Shadow Man." Gutsman said.

"Not the first one I've met." Gumball said.

"Hmph, cocky, well I suppose you've already met Needleman and now know I'm Shadowman, but also meet Woodman and Bubbleman." Shadowman said as the aforementioned Woodman who looked like a man covered in tree bark, and Bubbleman who looked like a green scuba diver.

"Alright, let's take down these punks." Bombman said while eying Woodman as Gutsman looked up at Needleman. Gumball rushed at Shadowman who jumped back and threw three shurikens at the cat who erratically slashed them away.

"You don't seem to have very good control over emotion, if I can predict your swings by knowing it's just left to right how will you beat me?" Shadowman asked before catching one of Gumball's strikes with his hands. Bombman meanwhile was fighting Woodman and throwing bomb after bomb.

"Banzai!" He yelled as one exploded at Woodman's feet, from the smoke razor sharp leaves were launched and slashed across Bombman's chest before Woodman jumped at him and began tustling with him before throwing him at Bubbleman who was knocked over. Gutsman was up against Needleman who was running from the rocks Gutsman threw at him.

"Quit runnin' ya spikey snake!" Gutsman yelled before seeing Needleman shoot his head needles forward, Gutsman grinned and caught it and began swinging the blue bot around as he was connected to them by a rope. This hit Bubbleman again who was still getting up.

"Bubbleman, do something!" Needleman yelled.

"I wasn't built for ground combat!" Bubbleman retorted.

"Ugh, gen twos, always usele-AAAAHHHHH!" Needleman yelled as he was thrown away. Woodman was still wrestling with Bombman and began pushing him towards a cliff. Bombman noticed this and tripped him before attempting to release a bomb but it being blocked by a leaf lodged in his arm.

"Darn it!" He yelled before ripping the lead out and wincing before the bomb fell from the hole in his arm making him kick it like a soccer ball and it landing at Woodman's feet before he shielded himself. Bombman saw how craters were being created and grinned, he let out a ton more bombs and kicked them to Woodman who was getting buried by rocks falling on top of him. Gumball had been thrown backwards and landed on his feet before redrawing his sword and focusing. He shot out a sword beam making Shadowman sidestep away from it.

"Impressive, but still it's too slow." Shadowman said before taking out a few kunai and throwing them again, Gumball blocked in response and know he needed one of those forms. He began taking deep breaths and felt his heart beating slower, he then closed his eyes and then saw something. A monkey, a spider, a peacock, and some reptile. The reptile revealed his wings and roared making the others bow to him. The then blasted Gumball with fire which he jumped away from and opened his eyes to see Shadowman's foot hit him in the face.

"Gah, what the what?" He said as he fell to his back and saw Shadowman raise a katana before Gumball saw the Charge n' Targe and used it to block the killing blow before slashing Shadowman's chest and charging forward into a cliffside and slamming the ninja into it. The spike stabbing into him.

"Hrk, you did better than I thought you would, especially for a fleshy." Shadowman said. "Masters, fall back." Shadowman said before handing a piece of himself to Gumball. "Give that to the Blue Bomber." He said to Gumball. He then warped off with Bubbleman, and Woodman to find Needleman.

"Alright fellas, we should head back to Light Labs, and right on schedule too." Gutsman said.

-Underground-

Z was walking through a lava filled nightmare, one would say it was a stereotypical depiction of Hell, especially with that flower following him with a jolly face. Z did not like him.

"So where the hell is this crystal?" Z asked.

"Well it's in this shop at this place called Waterfall, run by this old fart of a turtle named Gerbert." Flowey explained as he schlooped up to Z when he got too far.

"Do you think he'd give it up willingly?" Z Asked.

"Well, probably not without some money or Gold." Flowey said.

"Ugh, god dammit." Z said he was not much of a robber, sure he took money but usually from a paying customer or a corpse.

"Hey don't worry we can always just kill him, he's too old to do much about it." Flowey said as they got to a building. "Oh golly, it's the core!" Flowey yelled as they entered into it. Z looked around and then sent a communication to Shadow Man and Mania.

'Flower with me, have a pot ready.' Z sent to Shadow Man.

'I'll steal one from this town' Shadow Man sent back.

"So what do you need some gemstone for anyways?" Flowey asked.

"Job." Z replied trying to talk as little as possible to the flower.

"What kinda job?"

"If you keep asking questions I might just find another helper that doesn't talk.".

"Gee, so scary from the slasher villain." Z stayed silent in response as they kept trekking. Meanwhile in Snowdin Mania and Shadow Man walked behind Papyrus looking at the latter's communicator.

"Heh, ridiculous, a talking flower, is he nuts or what?" Shadow Man asked.

"Oh, you know Flowey too?" Papyrus asked. Shadow Man sighed in response.

"Damnit, I guess I am the inferior minion." Shadow Man said.

"Oh, come on buddy, you're still his right hand, and you know, maybe we can find out if he's possibly working with-" Shadow Man cut Mania off.

"Please, we haven't seen her in years, how would Z even know?" Shadow Man asked.

"Just a hunch." Mania responded as Papyrus went inside his house. They then saw the Meta Knights sans Sans behind them.

"Well well, if it isn't Ms. Rose?" Mania asked. "Been quite a while, I should say you're little pals have been making quite the scene because of that Charlie kid." Mania said with a grin.

"Go to hell." Ellie said in response as both skeletons exited.

"Welp, I'm ready, I know where the kid is." Sans said.

"I- how did you know?" MetaKnight asked. He was rarely surprised.

"Just a feeling." Sans said.

"Alright disciples of Papyrus, to Waterfall!" Papyrus yelled. The groups continued to Waterfall, both glaring each other down.

-Phil-

Phil with Elecman and Fireman walked through the industrial complex.

"Well partner, it looks like we're going in circles." Fireman said as Phil trembled.

"I see you're nervous?" Elecman asked.

"What?"

"My electrical sensors can sense all kinds of electricity, even bodily." Elecman said. "Anyways you appear to have an increased heart rate, that's usually considered a sign of nervousness." Elecman said.

"Well, yeah, I may probably die." Phil said.

"Pah, death, just an excuse for cowards." Fireman said.

"Excuse him, he's all about sacrifice." Elecman said.

"You darn tootin' I am, I'd rather die a hero than live like a weak little Mett!" Fireman said yelled. Eventually they ran into a group of masters. One was a boy in a yellow box, another was a man looking like a screw with two spikes for hands, next to him was a man with crystals on his head, and finally a man with a helmet and a gold head.

"Hm, Heatman, Sparkman, Geminiman, and Flashman." Elecman said.

"Well well, we have hot head and plug boy." Flashman said. "And who's that, a-" Flashman stopped. "Another bald person." He said as if he found his kind of guy.

"Uh, Eggtree, Phil Eggtree." Phil said.

"Well Eggy, I'll fry you!" Heatman yelled as he charged forward to Phil making him jump back and shoot his gun rapidly. Each shot bouncing off the armor of Heatman.

"Hey sparky, give him a shocking surprise." Gemini man joked before jumping down and shooting a laser at Fireman.

"Alright, sorry about this." Sparkman said generating a ball of electricity from his spikes. He threw it at Phil before Elecman caught it and threw it back... The ball of energy.

"Thunder beam!" He yelled. Sparkman got out of the way and allowed Flashman to almost get hit before he froze time.

"Yeesh lemme pull the plug on old Zeus here." Flashman said firing a barage of buster shots to Elecman. Time soon unfroze as Elecman screamed.

"Oh now you've done it. Justice will burn you!" Fireman yelled before jumping up to Flashman before nearly getting hit by a Gemini beam and a spark shot. He shot out a blaze of fire fending off the three as Phil fought Heatman.

"Go ahead kid, every shot you take just bounces off me." Heatman laughed before Phil saw a welder. Instinctively he ran to it and goaded Heatman to charge at him making him hit a wall just as Phil grabbed the tool and began welding the top of his box armor to the rest. "Hey what's going on, I can't see anything?" Heatman cried out as Phil finished. Phil then ran to Elecman and pulled out his wrench and hit him a few times. This proved useful as Elecman got up and jumped shocking Flashman before grabbing Sparkman's spikes.

"Hey get off!" He yelled generating a shock, shockingly it did nothing to Elecman.

"Thanks for the charge." Elecman said smugly before pushing him into Fireman who scorched him and then ducked as Elecman shocked Geminiman.

"Ugh, f-fall back." Flashman yelled as he warped back with Shockman and Geminiman followed. Heatman was still stumbling around.

"Guys a little help here?" Heatman asked.

"They left partner." Fireman said.

"Oh, I- uh, I'll just leave." Heatman said before warping out.

"Alright fellas, I think we should head back to base." Fireman said. Elecman nodded. Phil also nodded and held on as he was warped with them

-Mimi-

Mimi was joined with Timeman, a purple robot with two clock bells on his head, and Oilman who had a scarf and looked like a penguin. They were walking on the docks.

"So, what kinda master are you?" Oilman asked.

"Master?" Mimi asked.

"What my brother is asking is if you are built for a certain task." Timeman said.

"Mimi, has a gun for defense, and also fighting." Mimi said.

"Heh, a super fighting robot?" Oilman asked.

"Yeah, Mimi fights for Daddy!" She yelled with excitement. Immediately Timeman hid both of them behind a wall. Behind the wall there was a man who was orange and built in heelies in his feet skating around a man with his head in a snake's mouth and meditating.

"Topman and Snakeman, how peculiar." Timeman said.

"Heh, two in one deal." Oilman replied.

"Actually a four on three." A voice said from behind. It was a man with a pointy helmet and non-hands. Mimi instinctively pointed her gun at him. "Cute, but Crashman has to crash this party!" Crashman yelled jumping up and shooting two spikes with red beeping things on them.

"Get down!" Timeman yelled as Mimi ducked and covered and Oilman slid past Topman and Snakeman.

"Come and get me!" He yelled as Snakeman was snapped from his meditation.

"Ssssson of a- get him, I'll sssssearch for him." Snakeman said.

"On it." Topman said as he ran after the penguin. Mimi pointed her gun at the snake before getting blown away, literally by some wind from a blue bot without a mouth but a fan in his chest.

"Behold the wrath of Airman!" Airman introduced himself as he blew Mimi onto a crane. "You can't beat me." He said before blowing more as Mimi tried shooting him but the bullets were blown away in all sorts of directions. She saw this and frowned, the upgrade was useless. Instead she saw the controller of the crane and smiled. On the ground Topman chased after Oilman.

""Top" of the hour to ya, but I'm afraid this is your last fight!" Topman yelled.

"Heh, come and get me Dreidelman." Oilman said teasing the top not.

"Oh, now you're dead!" Topman yelled before Oilman shot out some oil making his wheels slippery and making him loose control.

"Ha, who's out of the count now?" Oilman asked before getting a top thrown at him. Timeman meanwhile saw that he was not at all charged and his clock hands weren't too useful for the situation, so he'd have to be clever.

"Hey Airman, you couldn't beat Megaman so I probably have a better chance!" Timeman yelled.

"Let's see then." Airman said as he fired a miniature tornado at Timeman who dodged it and watched it hit Crashman who was knocked back.

"Thanks." Timeman said as he watched Mimi pilot the crane to pick up a shipping crate and swing it into Airman who barely dodged it.

"Ha, as if that would-" Airman was cut off by Timeman ringing and slowing down time and throwing a clock hand and releasing a bunch of plants onto Airman who slowly screamed in surprise as he was buried under plants. Timeman then threw a clock hand into Crashman's arm. He then saw that snakes were swarming Oilman who got attacked by one jumping on his face and trying to bite him.

"Put danger noodles down." Mimi ordered.

"Or what you'll sssshhhhoot me?" He asked seeing that yes, she did indeed shoot him in the shoulder. "Gah, Doctor warp us out!" Snakeman yelled. As he was beamed up.

"Yeesh, thanks Mimi, you know maybe you are a robot master in the making." Oilman said brushing off the snakes.

"Gah, wait I can still fiiiii-" Topman yelled as he fell into the water before being beamed up.

"Heh, let's get back to the lab ay tick tock?" Oilman asked.

"Yes, I believe we should." Timeman replied not humoring Oilman on the joke.

-Megaman-

Megaman waited for his allies before seeing an orange beam of light and a dark blue light, the orange one being Cutman, an orange and white robot with scissors on his head, and the blue one was Iceman, A robot that was short and wore a parka.

"Reporting for duty sir." Iceman said.

"Should we "cut" to the chase?" Cutman asked.

"Sure, petal to the "Metal"" A voice replied. It was a robot that looked like a red dentist with a bunch of saw blades across his body. With him was another red robot with a magnet on his head, a blue robot who was large and looked heavy, and Quickman.

"Quickman?" Mega asked.

"Good to see you too Meg, y'know Willy's new contact helped us get a second chance, and so why not take you on at once?" Quickman said.

"Alright, let's do this." Mega said.

"Hardman, Metalman, take on Edward Scissorhead, Magnetman, take on Frosty." Quickman said. "Blue Bomber is all mine." Quickman said running towards Megaman who fired in response. Quickman immediately punched him in the chest as the dentist Metalman threw a Metal blade at Cutman's feet and Magnetman shot out magnets flying towards Iceman with the smaller robot shooting an ice slasher blowing up the magnets.

"I'm what you should've been Cutman!" Metalman yelled charging at Cutman who threw a Cutterang, in response Metalman threw a blade making both collide and bounce off each other.

"Shoot." Cutman said running towards his scissor boomerang before getting hit by a giant fist. "Gah!"

"You'll have a "hard" time fighting us." Hardman said.

"And I thought my puns were bad." Cutman said strained. "Too bad you aren't ready for... Kung Fu Cutman!" He yelled before doing a hand stand and kicking Hardman in the face and jumping on his head while yelling "Hi yah!" Metalman attempted to throw more blades but Cutman responded by jumping onto and then off of one of Hardman's hands making the fist shoot out and hit Metalman in the chest and allowing Cutman to grab his scissors. Iceman saw Metalman slide to him before he saw more magnets come after him.

"Big mistake shooting magnets at metal!" Iceman yelled as he jumped behind Metalman who slowly got up and saw the magnets coming for him.

"Oh come on-" He was hit by them and caught in the explosion causing him a sizable amount of damage. Iceman knew that this was enough, they simply had to defeat them, not kill the poor guys. He moved towards Magnetman who shot out more magnets.

"Sir, I request you fight like a real robot!" Iceman said. He dodged the magnets and knee'd him in the chest and then used his other leg to kick him in the face.

"Jeez, where do you Light robots get these moves?" Magnet man asked while shooting another magnet as Iceman dodged it and saw it hit Hardman.

"Truth is we download them from the Internet." Iceman said before freezing Magnetman's hands.

"Oh, come on!" He yelled in response.

"Hold on Cuts, I'm coming soldier!" Iceman yelled as he shot out another ice slasher freezing one of Hardman's fists midair. Hardman responded by throwing Cutman off him.

"One handed I can still beat you." He said before jumping up and preparing to land on Iceman. Megaman meanwhile was fighting Quickman one on one.

"Come on Mega, I thought you would fight with your hands." Quickman said before kicking Mega who caught it with his fist and pushed him off and threw a punch.

"Look Quickman you're almost outmatched." Mega said. "I'm not going to destroy you again, but I won't let Doctor Wily get away with this."

"Oh please, I know you want a rematch with Gumbot, but I won't give him satisfaction of beating you before I do." Quickman said. He didn't really want to end Megaman just having the satisfaction of defeating him, he got ready to throw another punch before getting hit by a charge shot to the face and launched back before quickly dodging both a Cutterang and an Ice Slasher. "Hey, this is our fight!" He yelled as the two masters stopped and looked at Mega. Mega nodded and signaled that this fight was his. They backed off as Mega shot multiple buster shots and Quickman responded by throwing Quick Boomerangs and both of them getting hit by each other's weapons before they swapped sides and shot at each other. They both stopped.

"Quickman, please, for your own brother's good, let up, and swallow your pride." Mega said.

"I'll keep going until one of us-" Quickman was interrupted by a purple charged shot piercing through his chest.

"Quickman!" Megaman yelled reaching out for him.

"Falls..." He said as he fell to his knees, behind him were two robots, a black armored one with some fins on his helmet, Bass, and Gumbot. Mega's eyes widened.

"I was getting bored of all the talk." Bass said as he approached Mega but not before kicking Quickman's body. Mega stood his ground readied for battle, he was hoping Cutman and Iceman were calling for reinforcements. He scanned the area and looked at Gumbot who was certainly scanning back.

"Data, copied, preparing full assault." Gumbot said. From his back came out a bunch of cubes forming a Jaguar that stepped behind him as Bass called in his wolf treble. Mega had a disadvantage before hearing a whistle from the distance... Protoman.

Chapter Text

-Mega City-

Megaman looked up at Gumbot who was standing next to Bass. The Jaguar behind him growled as Treble looked down on him.

"Calling reinforcements!" Cutman yelled at he threw the pair of scissors to Gumbot who dodged it and made his ears form into a Metal Blade and threw it back at Cutman and took the scissors from the ground and absorbed it. "Ugh." Cutman said in disgust before Iceman slid down and shot an Ice Slasher at the blade before the Jaguar jumped at him and caught his arm.

"Gah!" Iceman screamed as the robot threw him away as a charged shot nearly hit it, Protoman ran to it before sliding to it and blocking a scratch attack from the robot Jaguar.

"Nickella," Gumbot let out a series of beeps to the Jaguar which understood then jumped towards the Blue Bomber.

"Send in Rush!" Megaman yelled as a red beam appeared and a red dog came in and jumped towards Mega to guard him.

"Treble, take them out!" Bass yelled pointing at the two before running to Protoman who shoved himself into the Wilybot with his shield and shot at Gumbot who generated his own shield that looked like Protoman's.

"Grr, get off!" Bass yelled as he reached the scarf and was about to pull it off before getting hit into a wall. Iceman was getting himself up and looked at his now damaged arm before Cutman helped him up.

"I'm out of the count soldier." Iceman said. "Tell Roll, I-" He was cut off by seeing multiple beams come down to see the other DLNs plus Gumball, Phil, and Mimi.

"Backup is here!" Gutsman yelled. Gumbot looked at the group and began scanning.

"Data copied, Gumbot superior, robot masters inferior." He said before landing.

"Heh, looks like the copycat came to play." Oilman said. Gumbot immediately flew towards the group ready to break down all of them. Targeting Gutsman he shot out a Crash Bomb into the ground he was standing on before throwing a Metal Blade at Elecman who dodged it before firing a Thunder Beam at the cat who dodged it and watched as it almost hit Magnet Man who yelped.

"Incapacitated here!" Magnetman yelled. The Crash Bomb then exploded, knocking over Gutsman who almost fell on Cutman. Mimi then shot Gumbot and actually damaged some of the cubes holding him together. Immediately he rushed over to her and roundhouse kicked her in the face as his ears changed to look like Mega's helmet and he glowed blue and put his hand to her chest before Phil shot him to no avail. Gumball ran over but he was too slow as the buster shot entered and exited her and she went offline.

"Mimi!" Phil yelled before Gumball slashed against the copycat who flowed through it. Immediately after Gumbot went to Super Arm and punched Gumball in the head and knocked him back. Targeting the group again he shot out a Hard Knuckle and guided it into hitting Cutman and shoving him in the ground before switching to Magnet Missile and shooting at Gutsman who was unable to get out of the way.

"Uh oh." He said before the missiles blew up and he was on the ground. Gumbot went on the ground and saw Timeman was about to charge his slowdown and Oilman and Elecman were coming after him, the former was sliding on oil and was getting closer, Gumbot grabbed his scarf and threw him into Elecman, covering him in oil and making him shoot a Thunder Beam to which Gumbot dodged and activated Fire Storm and shooting it at them, Timeman meanwhile had to activate the time slow early and ran to the two oiled robots and dodging the Fire himself before seeing that Gumbot's hand was now a needle but that the time slow was now over and Gumbot was now face to face and hand on shoulder to the purple clock-bot who was pulled into a Spark Needle.

"You're done for now!" Fireman yelled before Gumbot shot a Ice Slasher and froze the flames and damaged Fireman. He then caught a punch thrown by Bombman before using Fire Storm and scorching his arm. He then looked to Phil who glared at him and stood along the defeated robot masters.

"Gumbot Superior, Robot Masters-" He was cut off by seeing his jaguar getting punched and launched into a cliff side. "Nickella!" He yelled before seeing that Rock was now red and had large fists. "Fusion." He said seemingly angered

"You're going down!" Mega yelled. Gumbot stared at him before holding his hand to Nikella, she dispersed into cubes and flew back into him. Gumball watched and got up and looked at his sword he closed his eyes and sighed. Opening them again he saw the Monkey, Peacock, and the spider, The spider was the biggest, it appeared to be a mixture of a tarantula and a black widow, he shuddered in its presence. The monkey jumped around in place and made noise, he liked the monkey, it was fluffy and white too, but also fairly small. The peacock was beautiful, blue but looked as though it had lost something or someone as was saddened by it.

"You see them?" A nasally voice asked. Gumball turned around and saw a green version of himself.

"Wait, what the what?" Gumball asked recognizing jealousy.

"Before you ask you can't kill emotion dummy." Jealousy said.

"You also can't kill Zach!" Zach yelled as he skated down with a guitar riff playing behind him.

"Wait you're both alive?" Gumball asked.

"Duh, We're technically you, thanks by the way for making this place a petting zoo!" Jealousy yelled clearly angered by the animals.

"Yeah, pretty cool dude, Zach finds them cool." Zack said before petting the monkey.

"I can get you but how'd you survive?" Gumball asked Zach.

"Well, technically Zach is no longer... Zach, despite he calls himself that, He's now Gumball..." Zach mumbled as Gumball giggled.

"Shh, you'll wake it!" Jealousy yelled before they heard a roar. "Oh, I did that." He said as the animals bowed. Gumball watched as the two hims hid and he was left to face the beast. it shook itself off and roared at him. He stood there. The reptile revealed its wings again and showed him it was a dragon, its scales were golden and it had horns that went backwards. However it opened its mouth and flames came towards Gumball he instinctively shielded his face using the flat side of the sword and closed his eyes in his mind. Then he felt that the flames were nothing and he could walk through them easily, slowly he went to the dragon and stopped blocking and went as close as he could it noticed before lowering its head to him. It snorted Gumball held his sword before deciding to make it disappear he put his palm on its snout as a show of friendship, it closed its eyes as Gumball closed his, immediately he opened them seeing Gumbot and Mega fighting, however his body began to heat up, fire came from his elbows and the back of his knees as armor began to cover him, it was orange and red surrounding him before a burst of it came from the sword and covered it in fire, Gumball stabbed the ground and blasted a pillar of fire from underneath Gumbot who was launched upwards. Looking at Gumball he found an error.

"Error, no found weakness." He said before getting punched by Rock with a giant fist. Gumball then sprouted wings and pulled the Chargin' Targe which was set aflame and became more refined. "Possible weakness spotted." Gumbot said before his ears covered his face and made a gas mask and his right arm extended and he shot air at Mega sending him backwards before he threw another punch, Gumbot dodged it before getting smacked by the shield and then kicked downwards by Gumball who then looked down. "Requesting Backup." Gumbot said before a portal opened and Spike, Meta, and Stuart came falling from it.

"Alright, where's the- oh, oh we are screwed." Spike said in fear.

-Abandoned Wooden Building-

Darwin hammered down on some of the strange liquidy creatures lurching towards him and his group.

"Jeez these guys keep coming." Darwin said before a portal opened beside him and Ion kicked him into it with Penny and Carrie following.

-House-

A red guy and a green girl were sitting, drinking, and watching TV.

"Hey Anton, you know where the chips are?" The green gal asked the red guy who was Anton.

"Second cupboard to your left, and leave some for me fatass!" Anton yelled at his roommate.

"You're fatter than most guys in-" The gal was cut off as a fish hit the wall and ran before a machine stabbed his hand into the wall and slashed it before getting attacked by a raccoon who crawled into him and started to mess with his insides. "What the hell?" The gal asked before a ghost went into her mouth making her even more gremlin-like.

"What the blast is goin' on here?" Anton asked as the possessed green girl slammed a mace on Ion's face as the racoon ran out.

"I've had enough of all of you, I will- Gah!" Ion screamed as he was hit out of the house.

"Get outta here!" Anton yelled as the fish, raccoon who turned into a fairy, and ghost excited his house.

"Ugh, what happened?" The girl asked before throwing up.

"I'm blasting my brains out one of these days." Anton said as he laid back in his couch. Outside Darwin, Penny, and Carrie saw Ion climb back up with his visor cracked the trio took their leave with a portal and Ion immediately began following them again, from the portal he found himself within a forest.

"Ha, hiding within a forest, cowardly of you, listen here fish, I'm going to kill you, slowly, I will string out every ounce of agony until you finally die." Ion said walking through the forest, Darwin and the gang decided to portal out from behind him. From it they found themselves in a tower, it was high above a city.

"Wow, this place looks nice." Darwin said before looking behind him and seeing the office in dismay and disrepair. "Nevermind." He added. Carrie looked at the door and read what it said.

"Lexitron Mayor's office." She said as Darwin picked up a photo of a man with a mustache and top hat with an A on it.

"Mayor A." Darwin said before seeing a flag, he lifted it up and looked at it, it was a cat with a gas mask with two katanas diagonal behind him. As he did Ion tore through the flag flying from a portal and slashing through it.

"Ha, Lexitron?" He asked. "Oh, Mr. Black-Cat made this planet quite well, see there was an uprising here, but we crushed it fairly quickly." Ion said.

"H-how?" Darwin could only ask that.

"Oh, you don't want to know kid, besides you're going to die anyway, might as well-" He was stopped by Penny who jumped on his face as a cat who began scratching his optic. "Gah, why always the eye with you people?" Ion asked before Penny became a mouse and crawled into his head from his neck. Darwin then began to taunt him making him try to attack him before he was stopped. He couldn't move. "W-what the." He said as Penny crawled out and transformed back.

"Good job guys." She said as Darwin opened a portal and they left Ion, immediately he sent a distress signal to let anyone in the Black-Cat Empire know that he was not going anywhere without assistance.

-Schoolhouse-

Smiley continued to cry, her knees growing wet as she buried her face into them. She leaned on a wall and slowly saw that the timer reached zero. She got up, she started breathing heavily seeing Rocky, hearing his accent. Her teeth gritted as she took her shotgun out and kicked down the door. In two steps she saw Zack and Phred with some notebooks being carried.

"Smiles?" Zack asked, she huffed and began walking with them trailing behind.

"Let's Play!" The red dressed girl yelled in excitement before Smiley aimed.

"Woahwoawoawoawoah woah, woah... Woah." Zack and Phred yelled. "What the hell are you doing?" Zack asked.

"I'm done Zack, I've had everything taken away from me, I'm done." She said with tears in her eyes. Zack burned the rope making the girl go away.

"Oh, that makes me sad." She said as she went away seemingly unphased by the gun.

"Look if you're going to shoot anyone shoot the bald guy or the potato." Phred said.

"Don't shoot anybody!" Zack yelled back. "They're not Rocky, they don't even know of Rocky's existence, you beat the crap out of him Smiles, and we're going to do it again, we'll find Phil, and that cat then beat these guys and go home." Zack said.

"It's not going to bring Ellie back!" Smiley yelled as she got in Zack's face who flinched. "It won't bring back mom and dad..." She said more somber and quietly. Zack hugged her and listened to her sob. he then heard a smack of wood.

"Crap." He said as they began running before Smiley aimed her gun at Baldi. she fired as the pellets were hit away from the teacher using the ruler as a way to block the shots.

"Okay he can't be hit by bullets!" Smiley yelled she ran into a blue door and found a notebook immediately grabbing it and solving the problems. Zack noticed this before bumping into the bully with Phred.

"Are you kidding me?" He yelled as he saw Phred take out a jar of jarate and threw it at the Bully as it bounced off.

"I don't want that." He said as Phred caught it and put it in his backpack. Smiley immediately responded by pointing the gun at him. “Ooh, that looks-” Smiley fired and knocked him into a wall, however it was a fairly low quality knockback where lots of stuff fell from the bully's pockets including the telemension.

“Huh, he only got knocked back.” Phred said while picking up the device and the three bolting as Smiley took a right turn into a blue door and found another notebook. Answering the questions and taking it she saw Phred run into a cafeteria as Zack ran into another blue door. Apparently there were notebooks in there because they found two more making seven.

“So what now?” Zack asked. Suddenly the walls became red as blood.

“Run maybe.” Smiley said.

“CONGRATULATIONS, YOU FOUND ALL SEVEN NOTEBOOKS, NOW ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS… find a way out before I get you!” Baldi announced as the slapping got faster.

“I saw an exit at the cafeteria!” Phred yelled as they began running to the room and ran into the exit that became a wall with Phred running into it and dropped the telemension before Smiley caught it.

“What the hell?” Smiley asked as she began to fidget with the telemension.

“C'mon there's got to be another exit!” Zack yelled. They began running out before seeing Baldi to their left. “This way!” Zack yelled before the girl came back.

“Let's play!” She said. Zack immediately grabbed his axe and chopped the rope. “Oh that makes me sa-”

“Shut up!” Phred yelled as they passed her. Immediately they heard a yell.

“Gotta Sweep sweep sweep!” A broom yelled.

“What the-” they were pushed across the schoolhouse to another exit. Smiley immediately grabbed at it before it was turned into another wall.

“Are you fu-”

-Underground-

Z had emerged from the core and had walked through what the flower called Hotland, it looked like rocks and lava, as though there'd be zombified pigs, giant ghosts, and fortresses containing fire monsters and black skeletons.

“So how much further?” Z asked.

“Well we go through some vents and then lizard lady's lab before getting to Waterfall.” Flowey said before winking, Z wanted to stomp his smile out, it reminded him of another smiling cretin, one he couldn't erase from his mind. Soon after passing some monsters they got to a hotdog stand before seeing the Meta Knights come out from there. Z jumped and stabbed his gauntlets into the cliffside as Flowey shlooped into the ground.

“How many shortcuts do you have?” Ellie asked.

“Eh, a few here a few there, really I got too many to name anyway you ”slice” it.” Sans said. Z listened as he began to side climb the rest of the way to the Waterfall area Flowey spoke of.

“Well knights let us continue on!” MetaKnight yelled while pointing his sword forward. The knights ran forward as they continued Z resurfaced and continued walking before seeing the vents that flowey told him of. He stepped on one before getting launched forward and seeing the exit, immediately he took to landing on another vent that led to another and so on before getting close enough to fire a grappling hook into the rock that allowed him to exit before trekking further and finding a large white building.

“Ah, the lab, home sweet home.” Flowey said after suddenly appearing next to Z. He grappled to the roof and ran off before finally getting to a cool blue area. “Well, welcome to Waterfall, quite nice isn't it?” Flowey asked.

“Where's the turtle?” Z asked.

“Oh, that way.” The flower said while pointing a vine towards the path.

-Waterfall Entrance, Snowdin-

Shadow Man, Mania, and Papyrus had entered the blue wetlands illuminated blue. Mania hummed a tune and mumbled lyrics to a song. Something about under a body of water.

“We will find Undyne and get you two closer to becoming royal guardsmen!” Papyrus yelled excitedly.

“Yeah, Royal guardsmen, say I'm feeling famished, is there anything I can eat?” Mania asked the skeleton while licking his teeth, Shadow Man shuddered as he thought about when they'd run into Z. They moved forward through the bioluminescent environment before finally approaching a bridge.

“Heh, so where's a shop?” Shadow Man asked.

“Well Gerson is probably selling something, but I don't know if you two eat monster food.” Papyrus said.

“Monster food shmonster food I gotta eat something!” Mania yelled with desperation as he and Shadow Man watched a suit of armor land, it was black with muscular indents.

“Gah, stay back, I'm armed!” Shadow Man yelled as the armorclad knight grabbed the barrel and held Shadow Man up by the gun making him shiver in place. “Okay clearly I'm out manuvered here.

“Nyeh heh heh, Undyne this is Shadow Man, not to be confused with a human.” Papyrus said as Shadow Man slid down the Candy Cane shotgun and Undyne dropped him.

“Hm, seems like a scrawny little guy.” Undyne said as she tossed him the gun. “And what about the other one?” She asked.

“Ah, this is Mania, Mania the…” Papyrus paused and squinted.

“Eldritch Tentacle Monster, but I am told I look like a celebrity.” Mania said. As the knight looked away and began walking.

“Wait, could you point us towards Mr. Gerson?” Shadow Man asked. The knight turned back to him.

“Follow me, I have a shortcut.” Undyne said. She guided the three as Shadow Man heard echoes of a grappling hook.

“Alright lead the way sir.” Shadow Man said.

-Hall of Judgement-

Sans had led the MetaKnights to a yellow hall with some light shining into it. Dust blowing through the air past pillars. Adora seemed relieved of something when they passed through the light.

“You okay?” Ellie asked the monkey.

“Oh, yes, I was just rejuvenated for some sunlight.” Adora said. “That's how my power thrives after all, as the sun heals and replenishes my energy I become more powerful.” Adora said as Metaknight made a noise and began running further.

“Follow him!” Mike yelled as he drew his gun. He was easily outran by Banjo, Kazooie, Henry, and Ellie as Adora grabbed him and carried him towards MetaKnight's path. They eventually made it to the room holding King Asgore by vines while hearing laughing. From behind the king Mr. Black-Cat stepped out.

“Meta Knights, I see you've made it, I suppose then you're here to fight me?’’ The cat asked.

“Black-Cat, you decided to impede our efforts?” Meta asked, drawing Galaxia.

“Well I was expecting you to try and recruit the king, after all, a noble king going out on a quest to save the multiverse and save another king how fitting.” Black-Cat said whilst taunting.

“Hmph, fool, I sensed determination here and I was here to recruit them.” Meta said.

“Ah, so the child that this king was going to slaughter, how noble you are.” Black-Cat laughed. He then slashed the boud king across the chest making Mike and Henry flinch. The king screamed as he was turned to stone and the vines gave out as he fell to the ground.

“Woah, that's a bit stone cold.” Sans said.

“Who's he?” Black-Cat asked.

“Names Sans, and right now, you just angered the Serif.” Sans said still with a smile.

“What-” Black-Cat was interrupted by a gunshot from Mike that he blocked and jumped back before snapping. “Well I suppose I should've expected to have a fight.” He said, from behind the statue Toppat Ellie and Henry stepped out.

“The hell?” Ellie asked.

“So this is the weak version of me?” Toppat Ellie asked. From behind the now cyberfied Krusha jumped over the statue.

“Attack!’’ Black-Cat yelled as Krusha charged and Banjo, Kazooie, Mike, and Adora, meanwhile the Ellies and Henrys fought as well as Black-Cat and MetaKnight. Black-Cat attempted to X-slash the knight but missed and blocked an attack before Meta preformed a Mach tornado making him block again as sparks began flying. Krusha meanwhile pushed the Bear, bird, monkey, and ex-cop through a wall knocking them all back.

“Woah, this guy's tough.” Banjo said before Kazooie pecked him.

“Lock and load Banjo!” She yelled as Banjo nodded and pulled her out before making her fire eggs at the robo-croc. To little avail. Adora then shot sunlight at him knocking him backwards before Mike shot him in the leg. There was notable damage before it seemed that some thin, translucent substance covered it before Mike got another shot, he did shoot but to no avail. The bullet merely bounced off.

“Shit!” Mike yelled as he ran backwards away from Krusha, the creature limped towards them before Banjo caught a swing from Krusha that pushed him back. Adora began to fire more sunlight before getting backhanded by Krusha and was sent into a wall. Henry meanwhile was dealing with himself as they began punching and kicking each other making grunts with each hit. Toppat Henry then pulled out a chainsaw as Henry responded by pulling out a parasol.

“Hm.” He grunted in slight disappointment before dodging a chainsaw swing that hit the flowers sending petals flying before Henry threw the parasol at the Toppat king, it did nothing really besides slowly landing. The Ellies dukes it out much more violently with Toppat Ellie having an assault rifle and shooting at Ellie who only had a taser.

“AHAHAHAHAHA!” Toppat Ellie laughed as Ellie ran away from the gunfire and aimed her taser towards the Toppat before firing as her double rolled out of the way. “God, I've always wondered what would happen if I fought myself!” She yelled before bashing the butt of her gun into Ellie's face and putting her foot on her chest. “To watch the light slowly leave my own eyes, that has to be a treat!” She laughed. “Especially when it's a version that was weak enough to care for a “wittle baby gorl” after her parents died.” She laughed violently before raising her foot and getting ready to slam it before Ellie caught it and pushed her off and grabbed the gun.

“Funny, I wasn't thinking that I'd kill myself today.” Ellie said. “Especially one that's such a crazy bi-” she was stopped by getting nearly cut up with the chainsaw. She began shooting before Banjo was sent through a wall and made the stickmen scatter.

“Ugh, woah!” Banjo yelled as the crocodile swung at the bear. Black-Cat and MetaKnight still fought, Black-Cat set his katanas aflame and charged forward to MetaKnight who blocked and pushed him back towards Sans. Black-Cat saw this and plunged his swords back to Sans who simply dodged the attack.

“What!”

“What, thought I'd just stand there and take it?” Sans asked. “I guess I gotta fight now too.” Sans said as Black-Cat jumped towards him as Sans simply sidestepped and summoned some bones that hit him and sent him back. He threw one of his swords and ran back to MetaKnight, Sans dodged it and shrugged. “Don't know what you were expecting.” Sans said. The sword then came back, nearly slashing the skeleton but nearly knicking the knight.

“Alright, I suppose I should pull out some old trucks.” Black-Cat said as he made copies of himself. All three began attacking MetaKnight who dodged each strike with efficiency and precisely attacked back with the swords hitting the ground as the copies were struck into dust.

-Halberd-

Gustavo and Saxton looked up at the sky before Gustavo began petting Brick.

“Ugh, standing guard is really, Really boring in it?” Saxton asked.

“Yeah I guess so.” Gustavo replied.

“Oi Charlie, what's going on down ‘dere?” The Aussie asked.

“Well I'm not really getting anything, they're real far down that mountain.” Charles said ocer a communication. “Wait I'm detecting something.” Charles said as the clouds darkened and green lightning began surrounding the ship.

“Ooh, what are we fighting now?” Saxton asked. He punched his palm in anticipation before seeing green eyes come at them, it was a blimp with a giant metal frame on it. “A blimp?” He said. “Dah, bloody hell, I was hoping for a challenge not, this!” He yelled.

“Attention, I am general Klump, and I am commandeering this egotistical vehicle!” Klump yelled as Kremlings, R.O.B Machines, Cat robots, and Pyrobones jumped down.

“Now this is more like it? Gus, Brick, get ready to bring the pain!” Saxton yelled. Immediately he punched a Kremling in the snout, sending him flying with a bloody trail following him.

“Uh, attack!” An R.O.B Machine yelled before firing a laser, Gustavo and Brick then began fighting some of the enemies. As they did SwordKnight and BladeKnight joined the fray.

“Oi! Let us have some fun!” Sword yelled. He slashed a R.O.B in the “spinal” area splitting it in half. Blade meanwhile charged forward and stabbed one of the cat robots before slashing a Pyrobone in half up ways then slamming down on a Kremling. Klump watched the bloodbath and shuddered.

“So they're getting their life forces drained right?” He asked the video communication with Zomboss in a cast.

“Well yes, as we speak this Bloon known as The Lych drains life force from fighters, usually it's towards any non-bloon being but the harness prevents that.” Zomboss said.

“Good.” Klump said. On the ship Saxton punched one of the cat robots into a group of R.O.Bs before suplexing a Kremling for the hell of it. He then began running to the blimp that zapped him with some green lightning, it made him stumble midair from impact but it didn't really do anything. He grabbed onto the Lych and wound up a punch. However, looking into its eyes he saw that this wasn't its natural way, no, it was caged.

“Bloody hell…” He said before getting punched off by a spandex clad zombie.

“Ha ha, Houston, we have a solution!” Super Brainz yelled.

“Deal with ‘em!” Klump yelled.

“On it!” Super Brainz yelled. He began to fly down towards the crew as Saxton landed.

“Sax, you alright?” Gustavo asked.

“That bloody thing's caged up, those bastards are controlling it against its will!” Saxton yelled. That's when Super Brainz landed on the ship.

“Tra la laa!” He sang before winding up a ball of energy and shooting it at the crew making them all dodge. Saxton began running towards the zombie and they caught each other. “Ah ha, I caught you're half witted attack villain!” The Zombie hero yelled.

“I'm the villain, you bastards have a chained animal up there!” Saxton yelled.

“Nonsense, balloons have no feelings!” Super Brainz yelled before suplexing Saxton who counter-suplexed him.

“Look into the eyes mate, when an animal is chained there's no fight in its eyes, just sadness!” Saxton yelled. As he yelled Gustavo, Brick, Sword, and Blade were slowly becoming winded.

“Uh, guys, Charles here, that blimp has life draining powers, if we don't get rid of it quickly we'll probably die.” Charles said. “No rush or anything.” He added. The four crewmates ran past the forces and began dog-piling Super Brainz allowing Saxton to get in a good punch on the zombie. He hit a piece of the harness keeping Lych chained.

“Gosh darnnit, send all units, the blimp has gone Hindenburg! I repeat Lych has gone Hindenburg!” Klump yelled as a gigantic portal opened and the Lych flew into it. There were remaining robots to take care of however.

“Alright, guess we're doin’ a cleanup crew now ain't we?” Sword Knight joked.

Back underground Shadow Man and Mania were led to a cave by the skeleton and fish. They were waiting before Shadow Man got a comm from Z. He then nodded at Mania who grinned before slithering out of sight.

“So, Papy, how's life underground?” The Shadow asked as he looked for any openings in the fish's armor before noises were heard in the shop.

“What the hell?” Undyne yelled as Shadow Man hit Papyrus' head into the water then ducked as a dart went towards them and hit her through a crevasse in her armor and knocked her out as Z landed.

“Took you long enough.” Shadow Man said as Mania slithered to them with the gemstone, it was yellow like a topaz.

“Don't worry I didn't kill him, just knocked him over on his back, turtles amirite?” Mania joked as Flowey shlooped to them.

“Wowee, that's… what you came for?” He asked. “A topaz gem?” He asked. Just then, Mania dug up the ground he was in as Shadow Man put him into a pot. “What the-” he yelled, immediately responding with summoning bullets towards the duo, Shadow Man swiftly sidestepped as Mania opened his body up to let the bullets pass through. Flowey's eyes widened as the tentacle monster looked at him and laughed. He wouldn't say it but this was a bigger threat than he would have thought. Soon a portal opened taking him from the vibrant blues of waterfall into the dull grey metallic look of the space base.

“Alright put him with the statues.” Z said as they entered a room with rows of petrified people. He was placed next to a man on a chair who looked surprised as well as a man with a triangular head being on his flat side, which was the top of his head. He frowned and waited for them to walk out before shlooping through the base and on the outside only to see that he was in space. He swore despite nothing being able to be heard.

-underground-

Black-Cat and MetaKnight battled as well as Sans providing backup firepower, the swords clashed before Black-Cat set his on fire, consequentially setting the flowers on the floor on fire.

“Hm, turning up the temperature I see?” MetaKnight asked. Black-Cat was silent before slashing at the knight who dodged each slash before doing a backflip and performing the Drill Rush that Black-Cat blocked before attempting a counter but being punched in the shin instead.

“Gah, why the shin!” He yelled before blocking more slashes from MetaKnight who he then pushed closer to the flames. “I have to hand it to you knight, you'll be the greatest statue in my collection!” He yelled before using his swords to push him towards the flames and wound up a slash before swinging before a wall of bones blocked the attack.

“Heh, sorry, but you just so happened to commit quite a “boner”” Sans joked about the wall of bones and the fact that the usage used to mean mistake as Black-Cat checked the inside of his robe. “Gross.” Sans said before Black-Cat charged at him and slashed one sword towards him which he sidestepped before another sword came at him and he was both next to fire and the other sword and he was unable to step back somehow so he was screwed. He slowly watched as the sword nearly grazed his skull before a child, the one the Knights were looking for had grabbed and swung him away from the cat.

“No!” MetaKnight yelled as the kid fell to their knees and slowly became stone.

“Ha, you idiots did all this for a dumb kid!” Toppat Ellie laughed as she pulled out a pistol from her hat. Black-Cat scowled as he saw Krusha's purple plating fade, that plating effectively made him invincible unless exposed to light. That's when he received a communication from Shadow Man. They got the gem.

“Ha, would you look at that, you couldn't even stop my plans one bit, could you?” Black-Cat asked the knights. “Once more I have bested you all!” Black-Cat yelled with an added bravado. “Henry, Ellie, Krusha take the statues and bring them with us!” Black-Cat yelled. “Unless MetaKnight wishes to endanger more lives?” He added looking at the knight.

“Meta Knights… fall back.” MetaKnight said before glaring at Black-Cat who seemingly smiled underneath his mask. Thats when a blast hit the mountain and a hole was shot through the room and revealed the Halberd.

“I suppose that now we should leave.” Black-Cat said before stepping into a portal.

“Tata lamps, we'll kill you later!” Toppat Ellie laughed as Toppat Henry chuckled. They left as Krusha carried out Asgore and the child. MetaKnight looked down and fell to his feet and hands before slamming his fist on the ground.

“Damn you Black-Cat!” He screamed. His anger having grinded his filter down, Mike took a knee next to him and sighed.

“Alright Knight, we won't beat him like this, let's head back up.” Mike said. MetaKnight silently nodded as he began to fly as well as Adora and Kazooie carrying the others, including Sans. On the Halberd the group met with Saxton, Sword, Blade, Gustavo, and Brick.

“‘Ello, we're going out?” Saxton asked. MetaKnight sighed before nodding.

“Yes, we ride.” MetaKnight said looking to the sky. Black-Cat's end was near, Mercy was off the table now

-Unkown location-

Smiley and the gang began to run past the blood red hallways as the slapping of flesh and wood came faster and faster. They began looking for the next exit and ran into a wall again.

“Dammit, I'm going to kill that bald bastard!” Smiley yelled.

“Look, let's just get out of here!” Zack yelled. “There's one last exit!” He yelled again before grabbing Smiley and Phred before running into a giant sock. It screamed as they were transported to the hallway Baldi was in starting to chase them with said bald man chasing them. They began running as Phred tripped and looked at Baldi, immediately he began getting slapped by the ruler.

“Ow, hey, stop man!” Phred yelled. The other two stopped and looked back as Baldi delivered a final slap.

“Welp you were caught, haha, next time you should do your division properly.” Baldi laughed. The room turned back to gray. Smiley slowly raised her gun.

“Smiles…” Zack said.

“I just want to talk to him” she responded.
“Smiley no!”
“I just wanna talk to him.”
“Smiley this is insane!”
“I just want to shoot him.”
“No!”
“I just want to shoot him.” She said as she aimed the shotgun at Baldi.

“Smiley!” Zack yelled before slapping her across the face, his flame was larger than usual and the heat could be felt from where she stood. “You can't just shoot every problem away like a psychopath, especially when it's a kid or an old guy!” Zack yelled. He saw how Smiley's eyes filled with tears and she dropped the gun and began crying even more. Zack's flame went out as he put his arms around her and hugged her.

“I'm sorry.” She cried. Her words stifled by each sob, “I'm terrible.” She cried.

“No, you're not, you were just angry, I'm sorry for snapping cous'” Zack said as she picked her gun up, Phred stood up and got to them.

“I'm okay, should we head out?” Phred asked as he began messing with the Telemension.

“Give us a sec.” Zack said as Smiley sniffled.

“Aight, I'll meet you guys outside.” He said. Phred exited the room.

“I take it you blame yourself slightly for what happened to Phil and Ellie?” Zack asked.

“More so Ellie, but all I do is that I end up getting people into more trouble, I beat up Gumball, I let Ellie, Henry, and Charles get captured, and I let that shadow guy manipulate us to fighting those three dimensional travelers looking for their friend.” Smiley said.

“I get it, I mean, I was partially the reason that we were abducted, but I couldn't control it, twas in my genes, plus Phil made that stupid smudge.” Zack added, “You had no clue that you'd get thrusted into this whole mess, so I don't want to hear you say it's your fault because you had no choice, Charles sacrificed himself for our survival, we tried helping Gumball and Phil's most likely helping now, and we kicked that Shadow's butt!” He added as Smiley wiped her tears and picked her gun up. “We good to go?” He asked.

“Yeah, let's go.” She said with a smile before walking out.

“Huh, wonder what that was about, definitely not math, haha, I guess I'll go back to standing.” Baldi said as he stood still, motionless and blankly smiled.

-Mega City-

Gumball and Mega were fighting Gumbot in midair as Spike, Meta, and Stuart watched. Gumball was on fire in an orange suit of armor and was pummeling Gumbot with Mega Man.

“Okay, I'm not touching that.” Spike said. He turned and looked at Phil still over Mimi's lifeless body. “Heh, what's wrong Papa Eggtree, little bucket of bolts died on ya?” Spike asked. Phil slowly turned towards him and clutched both his wrench and gun before pointing it at the trio and firing, the hedgehog-bot zoomed passed the bullet and got up to Phil's face. “Ha, a gun, a regular gun, why not just mail me the bullet?” Spike asked before Phil whacked him with the wrench and knocked him back. “Gah, you stupid kid!” Spike yelled while clutching his face. He immediately began charging up his own patented “Spin Rush”™. Phil responded by shooting the ball of machinery with plasma. Only one shot hit and knocked him back.

“AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!” Phil yelled before charging at the robot Hedgehog wrench swinging and pistol in hand and anger in his eyes.

“Meta, little help here?” Spike asked. He saw that Meta was helping Bass fight Protoman. “Nevermind.” Spike said as he dodged plasma fire and wrench swings.

“I'll kill you!” Phil yelled with tears in his eyes. Spike watched somewhat knowingly what the kid was feeling, a robot that was practically your child, seeing him this way was kinda sad. Meanwhile Gumbot was fighting two fronts, a kid who was on fire and flying, and a robot that was both flying at him and throwing punches. Gumbot looked at Gumball and attempted to use Ice Slasher but Gumball just dodged and slashed him that's when he realized, the cubes holding him together and allowing him to flow past physical attacks, they melted together as Gumball's sword passed through him and weighed him down.

“Uh oh.” He said as he was brought down slightly, he had to dodge punches before Megaman grabbed his arm and pulled it off and used it to punch him and knocked him backwards before Gumball slammed him down using his shield and drove his sword down onto his optic melting it before he continued slashing him as found a glowing blue ball that had a few silver rings encasing it. “C-c-core Damaged.” Gumbot said before Spike ran past Gumball and Megaman and took the gemstone.

“Spike here we got the emerald, beam us up boney!” Spike yelled as he, Gumbot, Stuart, Meta, Bass, Magnetman, Metalman, Hardman, and Quickman. Gumball and Megaman landed before seeing Phil and the other robot masters, Phil was over Mimi and had tears in his eyes.

“Phil?” Gumball asked, he looked at Mimi, there was a hole in her chest and her eyes were blank. Phil cried as Gumbot checked his pocket and found a single piece of metal, what Shadowman gave him, he prodded Mega with it making him flinch as he saw his color change.

“Wha-”

“Requested by Shadowman.” Gumball said before Mega nodded in understanding, Gumball then gave it to Phil. “It might work.” Gumball said. Phil held it before tapping Mimi with the wrench immediately she went back online.

“Dad-dy?” She said with static in her voice.

“Mimi!” Phil yelled before hugging her.

“Let's get these guys to the doc.” Gumball said before stumbling.

“I'll get them there.” Protoman said, walking up to Mega.

“Blu- *ahem* Protoman, thanks.” Mega said while smiling.

“Of course Megaman, tell Doctor Light I said hello.” He responded with a smile slightly visible.

-Light Labs-

Doctor Light was in his lab with Roll as they heard the beam.

“Ah, Megaman must have beaten those masters.” The doctor said, he opened the door and gasped he saw Mega and Gumball who both looked tired hauling the other robot masters as well as Mimi who were also fairly beat. That's when a transmission was revived from none other than Doctor Wily.

“Nyar har har, hello Thomas, I must admit I'm impressed by your two new buddies, but I must sadly say that I don't have a new castle, that's because I'm not even in this dimension anymore!” Wily yelled. He showed off his new lab coat with a new Purple trim along the collar and button section. There was even a patch on his chest with a cat wearing a gas mask with cross katanas diagonally behind the cat. “I shall say too, you may have won this battle but I Wily shall win these wars!” Wily shrieked before laughing maniacally before coughing. Gumball and Phil looked at him and grimaced before looking at each other and nodding, they were going to beat these guys, Black-Cat, and these lackeys.

Chapter Text

-Halberd-

MetaKnight stood at the bow of the ship watching the skies and seas. He looked down in disappointment and clenched his fist in anger. He saw Black-Cat's face laughing, the laugh replayed in his mind as Mike walked up to him while eating a pimento cheese sandwich.

“That kid?” He asked. MetaKnight nodded.

“Trust me, I've met my fair share of terrible guys, most of which deserve to die, but trust me, Black-Cat's sloppy, showy, he wants to have people know his crimes, and those guys always end up messing up one or two steps of the plan and then they're caught.” Mike said. He knew this from experience, the guy with those baseball cards was an example, probably didn't deserve death, but he was sloppy enough to have a drug dealer car that would've gotten him caught, as well as calling the police over some baseball cards.

“I know, because I will personally cut Black-Cat down myself.” MetaKnight said with his sword in hand. That's when they saw something in the distance. An island floating over the vast ocean.

-Space-

Z had parked his ship and began gearing up before grabbing his binoculars and looking at an egg shaped space station with a face and mustache on it. He squinted and saw the blue dot nearby, Gumbot was there, he had repaired himself immediately after the Gumball ordeal and had been fully charged, he watched as Gumbot sent out a mass of cubes that attached to the ships that formed a rabbit, Argonus, that's what he named her apparently, it hopped on and began to stick her teeth into the hull. Z then pressed a button on his binoculars activating a heat seeking mode. He saw a plump figure somewhat perplexed about something as it tapped the computer.

“Computer, bug their system.” Z finally spoke.

“Bugging… Bug complete.” The computer said.

“What's going on!” A man's voice asked.

“Father, someone's bugged the system.” A small girl's voice said.

“What, no way, Sage, run diagnostics, Orbot, send out scouts!” The man yelled. Z then watched as a couple of rotund robots were shot out, they were equipped with jetpacks and rifles, the plan was in effect. With efficiency Gumbot began picking off the bots, one after the other, there was about three left before the robot punched through one of them and swiftly dodged two blasters before grabbing one's head and crushing it before getting shot in the back and turning his head one hundred eighty degrees to the other robot before grabbing it's arms and ripping them off before becoming a ball and spinning through its chassis that's when a blue and yellow rocket hit him and pinned him to the space station. “Haha, Sage, get a read on him!” The man yelled.

“I've detected the source of the bug!” The girl yelled.

“Shit!” Z yelled. Gumbot looked at the rocket and saw it wasn't exploding, he punched on the back of it making it into a robotic hedgehog with a long head. Gumbot looked at it and punched it, it attempted to claw him before he kicked it upwards and shot a spike into its non neck making it leak slightly before he grabbed the spike and pulled it out the side of its neck, partially decapitating it.

“Sage enact counter hacking measures!” The man yelled.

“God dammit, Gumball initiate communication, I am compromised!” Z yelled.

“Understood.” Gumbot said.

“Have a nice fall little hacker!” The man laughed.

“I would suggest against that.” Z said.

“So you finally speak, go ahead tell me how you plan on stopping me?” The man asked in a belittling tone.

“Well that robot outside wouldn't be too happy seeing my ship destroyed, and his creator definitely wouldn't like paying me more for repairs on my destroyed property, we came here to discuss a proposition.” Z said.

“Ha, why would I entertain the idea?” The man yelled.

“I have your entire ship mapped out, with this Gumbot can easily tear through any weak points with very little trouble, your strongest bots would be scrapped in half the amount of time that blue blur takes.” Z explained.

“Ha, that bot better think twice, Sage, send the Egg Dragoon to deal with the pests. Set it to auto pilot too, I don't want to get oil on my suit.” The man yelled.

“The Egg Dragoon is launched.” Sage said as a giant mech flew out of a hangar door from the mouth.

“Hostile spotted, initiate combat.” Gumbot said, after he said it his ears became a ninja star as he shot out two stars that hit the mecha before it began shooting a Gatling gun at him, Gumbot looked at it and began processing it noticing how it's armor was meant to repel high speed attacks, Gumbot then decided to go into Super Arm and boost towards it and grabbing the gun and began pushing and pulling it around before making the robot fire it's own cockpit piloted by one of the same robots that was melted by the fiery ammo. Gumbot then slid into the cockpit and began to mess with some of the controls. “Gumbot Superior, Eggman, infe-” Gumbot was snatched by a blue blur, it looked to be Ion, but when he went by Metal.

“Haha, kill him Metal Sonic!” The man Z knew as Eggman yelled.

“Alright I've had enough of this shit.” Z said. “Gumbot, go lethal.” Z said as Gumbot was pummeled by Metal Sonic before Metal slammed his heel down on Gumbot. He then began spinning before Gumbot stopped himself falling and made his hand into a buster and began firing bolts of plasma before Metal dodged the shots and stabbed his claw through Gumbot who looked at the hand and back at Metal Sonic's eyes that's when the cubes holding him together clamped down on the robot's hand and Gumbot took out a Rolling Cutter and sliced off Metal Sonic's arm.

“Black-Cat system uploaded.” Gumbot said.

-Inside Death Egg-

The round, egg shaped man with the mustache sat on his chair watching the robots battle before seeing a black gas mask with cat ears glitching onto his screen.

“What the?” Eggman asked as his cube shaped and orb shaped servant bots perked up.

“Hello, is this thing on?” Black-Cat asked.

“What, what's going on, what is the meaning of this intrusion?” Eggman asked.

“Well I wanted to strike a deal, see I have multiple villainous entities teamed up with my empire and I wish to have you join in it, in return I offer your own system within your universe, as well as extermination of a certain blue pest.” Black-Cat added.

“And why should I agree to team up with you?” Eggman asked.

“You're a smart man, questioning me like this I suppose, we have similar technology do we not? Robots, space stations, death machines, but we differ in goals, you're limiting yourself. You have the technology to take over entire planets but are constantly being thwarted by a blue hedgehog. I wish to help you reach that potential, so what do you say?” Black-Cat asked. Eggman thought, to finally rid this miserable universe of that blue rat, and having his own star systems was a nice bonus.

“I have some requests.” Eggman said.

“Well go on, I suppose it would be worth negotiating.”

“I want independent control of my own empire, we are allies instead of me working for you, I also want some benefits of working with your empire such as seeing what your forces bring to the table.” Eggman said. “Finally my own personal access to a share of your resources.” Eggman added.

“All, understandable, I suppose a share of R.O.B Machines won't be too much trouble, and there will be plenty of planets to go around.” Black-Cat said. “Well I suppose that I should present your targets.” Black-Cat said as a door opened with Metal Sonic, now with his arm reattached, walked in with Gumbot.

“Greetings doctor, I am Gumbot, I took the liberty of Metal Sonic's repairs as you've seemingly come to your senses.” Gumbot said before a hologram beamed from his eyes, it was Gumball. “This is our target, we've detected that he's sent himself here with his allies, Phil Eggtree and his robot Mimi, we already have multiple units eyeing him and readying to strike, if you could spare one or two stronger units for us, that would be a great tipper to our favor.” Gumbot said.

“Hm, I think I do have some toys to spare, Sage call up the hooligans, I'll handle an extra call.” Eggman said whilst tapping his fingers, he then laughed menacingly as his computer began beeping showing a face of a little girl with white hair.

“On it father.” Sage said through it.

“Excellent, consider that blue cat problem taken care of.” Eggman said before leaning back. “Metal Sonic you join Sage and find the blue cat.

-Unkown location-

Smiley, Zack, and Phred landed on a street and looked up, it was a fiery mess that looked apocalyptic.

“This, this looks like hell.” Zack said. That's when a group of lava monsters rose from the ground.

“Great, lava monsters too, what's next?” Phred asked.

“Take this!” A voice yelled pulling the monsters up and throwing them off the streets. They saw a gray hedgehog and a light purple cat with a purple dress.

“Okay now this is getting ridiculous…” Phred said. That's when a pirate ship began flying through buildings. Crawling with Kremlings.

“Alright looks like these guys are back too.” Smiley said. As K. Rool and Klump dropped from the ship with Mech-Krusha.

“Wait what's going on?” The cat asked.

“Oh, could you guys give us one sec?” Smiley asked.

“Hm, two minutes to explain this whole fiasco.” K. Roll said.

“Ugh, alright, so I'm Smiley, he's Phred, and he's Zack, we got sucked into a portal and now we're traveling dimensions fighting these guys and other villains.” Smiley explained.

“I will say we're of The Black-Cat Empire, and the Toppats are with us, plus we're not here for you three, we're here for him!” Klump said, pointing at the hedgehog.

“Wait what?” He asked.

“Well, the explanation is over, fire!” K. Rool yelled as cannonballs shot out at the gang. As they closed in a blue aura surrounded the balls before they were thrown back at the Kremling ship blowing holes into it and causing it to go down. “Oh, oh dear, I'll, I'll be back… Krusha, crush them!” K. Rool screamed as Krusha looked at the telekinetic with dead cold eyes before the cat raised her hand, setting him ablaze. Just as he was set Zack swung the blunt end of his fire axe into its face before allowing himself to be used as a step stool for Smiley who blasted its face full of pellets. Krusha stumbled back and lost his balance before falling into the abyss.

“Woah!” Smiley yelled as she was about to fall before being caught by the hedgehog's telekinetic power. She was gently set down on the highway and onto her feet. “Thanks.” She said.

“Heh, no problem, I'm Silver by the way, and she's Blaze, we're from… The Future, which is this.” Silver said flatly.

“Jeez, what happened?” Phred asked.

“We don't know, it just ended up like this, it could have been anything…” Blaze said before looking up and seeing a figure it looked to be a thin man with a glowing red eye and a mustache. His body stretched back before immediately going forward, firing a laser beam that nearly hit the quintet as Blaze pushed Silver away and the Riddle Trio scattered.

“Arg, bloody scatterbugs, Oi Rool, you got anything?” The Right Hand Man asked.

“Actually I do have one trick up my scaley sleeve, Kremlings, fire the Klaptraps!” K. Rool yelled as some Kremlings armed themselves with blunderbusses holding Klaptraps that could eat almost anything, even concrete, they fired them and like a blue wave of ants they began munching on the interchange, eating every bit in sight causing the bridge to rumble.

“Uh, what's that?” Phred asked.

“No clue but I'm not trying to find out.” Zack said.

“Run!” Smiley yelled as the Riddle kids began running away.

“We must help them!” Blaze yelled to Silver.

“Agreed.” Silver said before they chased after the three.

-Unknown Hideout, Station Square-

Three figures were hanging around the alleyway bored out of their minds, a crocodile tossing a ball around while listening to a beat he made and lying on a couch, a bee flying around the place, and a horned chameleon balancing a kunai on his index that's when everyone's favorite masked wearing bounty hunter Z walked in.

“This the Chaotix P.I?” He asked as the bee tapped the croc's snout.

“Eh…” the crocodile looked before seeing him and flipping himself over and looking at the man. “Oh, what do ya need?” He asked.

“These three.” He slid photos of Gumball, Phil, and Mimi. “I need them found and protected, Eggman's planning on attacking them, I need you three to make sure they're not killed.” Z said.

“A protection job, alright you got a deal…” The crocodile said. “If yer paying the right amount.”

“Two million, under the table, if you're smart IRS wont suspect anything.” Z said to the Chaotix.

“Alright, any catch?” The crocodile asked.

“Just keep him alive… Here, a tracker so you know where he is.” Z told him handing him a box shaped device with a screen.

“I don't-” The crocodile stopped as a blinking light flashed on the screen.

“There he is.” Z said.

-Central City-

Gumball, Phil, and Mimi landed at another city center and looked around, the skylines gray and similar to those Gumball would see in the metropolitan area of Elmore or what Phil would see in places like Detroit going from his home county in Michigan. Mimi however was enamored by the sights like in Mega City but much less advanced, she saw it as beautiful and bright.

“Well, back in a big city.” Gumball said as he saw the downward ramp that showed cars down for miles.

“Yes, it appears so, but I should inform you that this will be the last city you step foot in.” A voice said, the trio looked up at three figures.

“Metal.” Gumball said as he looked at Metal Sonic remembering how he was sliced in half. There were also two figures next to Metal, a masked Jackal and a little girl with white hair.

“How did you…” The Little girl asked.

“So Shadow Man rebuilt you?” Gumball continued. The trio remained silent. “Well.” Gumball paused, remembering Metal's face after having been damaged by him constantly and the faces of his brothers when he was sliced in half, he needed to make amends. “I'm sorry, I know you want me dead and there's nothing that can change that but-” His words were stopped as Metal grabbed him by the neck.

“Whatever robot you speak of, That's not Metal Sonic, and even if you did strike him down, words don't fight as well as actions.” The Jackal said. Phil immediately aimed at him before a red glow hit causing a shift of vision as his gun became overwhelmingly heavy and pinned him to the ground by the hand Mimi responded by holding her hand cannon and firing but surprisingly bubbles came out as Mimi examined her weapon before Metal Sonic kicked her and stepped on her chest before throwing Gumball into a stairwell, immediately Gumball summoned his sword and ran to Phil who was wincing in pain as the pistol became heavier making Gumball look at the Jackal watching him. Gumball closed his eyes and swung his sword releasing a sword beam at the Jackal who teleported away as Gumball kept swinging as the Jackal continued to dodge before Mimi shot him from the side catching him off guard and causing him to get hit in the chest by the beam before the gun was lightened allowing Phil to shoot Metal Sonic in the back giving him some damage and giving Mimi an opening to push him off her and shooting the Jackal more as he struggled against Gumball and Mimi. “Ugh, where are they?” The Jackal asked before he launched a beam into Gumball who blocked it using his sword and rolling down the hill before he noticed the sword was wider and taller, too big to hold but bigger enough to ride on.

“Woah, how, how's this happening?” Gumball asked before seeing a turn and jumping he began running through the street extremely fast and running past a golden motorcycle driven by a purple weasel with a green duck and polar bear next to him.

“Uh, was that the guy?” The duck asked.

“Ha, no, that was obviously The Blue Blur, we're looking for a cat here. The weasel replied.

“But there was brown and beige too.” The duck said.

“Fine, roll some bombs, if it's him we'll get paid even more by Eggman anyways.” The weasel ordered as the duck happily obliged by picking up an armful of bowling ball shaped bombs with fuses and rolling them downhill towards Gumball causing explosions. Gumball saw them and began screaming as he saw rubble come down towards him and falling down the hill of the city. Phil meanwhile was battling the trio of Eggman's forces before the gang on a motorcycle rode in. “Alright where's that cat?” He asked.

“Down the hill.” Sage replied. This led to silence among everyone. This gave Phil the chance to shoot The Jackal in the chest and knock him back as well as Mimi Switching to AP bullets and shooting Metal Sonic in the chest before they began booking it.

“Gah, get em!” The duck yelled before the weasel turned the bike.

“Ugh, what, where am I?” The Jackal asked. He slowly was phasing out of the physical. Sage looked at Metal Sonic who got up and began rushing towards the duo being chased by the hooligans Phil was dodging bombs that were being tossed at him before he was picked up by the bear who growled at him before Mimi shot the tires of the motorcycle and made it go out of control and flipping as the bear dropped Phil who tumbled down and struggled getting up and looking at himself through a window that made him look bloodied. That's when Metal Sonic landed and kneed Mimi. Phil tried to run but saw himself blocked by rubble. He turned back to the red eyed menace as he was then hit by some kind of bomb that sent him backwards, it left a few rings behind as Phil heard the sound of helicopter blades land next to him, it was an orange fox that nodded at him.

“You okay?” He asked with a raspy voice. Phil nodded as the robot got back into a fighting stance. The fox responded by doing the same and smirking. “Help's on the way.” He said.

-Facility 6192001, G.U.N Base-

Darwin stepped through the portal with Penny and Carrie following behind. They looked at the place and saw the logo of some kind of organization G.U.N. Penny took a look at Darwin who now had a whole body as well as a muzzle with his tail now lowered instead of on the back of his head, he also now had actual fingers. His shoes were the same but sharpened as well.

“Gun?” He said as they looked around before being spotted by a man in a suit of light militaristic body armor and night vision goggles before he pointed his gun at them.

“Stay back, this is a restricted area, you are trespassing on G.U.N property, State your business or be-”

“Calm down Luke, they're kids.” A feminine voice said from the shadows, they saw her eyes, she flew down and revealed herself as a bat with white fur, eyeliner, and a pink, heart shaped chest plate. “This is a G.U.N facility, I'm sure you didn't mean to trespass on it so I think I should see you kids out, whaddya say?” She asked, she didn't want to scare a bunch of kids and it gave her an excuse to get some fresh air as the facility was in all fairness, drab and boring.

“Oh thanks lady.” Darwin said.

“No problem sweetie, just making sure everyone's safe.” The bat replied as Luke put his firearm away. That's when they heard robotic movements and saw two green eyes approach.

“Alert, Turmoil in Station Square. Immediate action required.” The giant robot with the green eyes said. He was black, red, and gold as well as top heavy. Next to him there was a black hedgehog.

“Well I think that we should take these three out…” The bat said sassily.

“I suggest we should take the children with us on the mission.” The robot added.

“Absolutely not! They're on

“They have potential, and I prefer to have more agents capable of dealing with these kinds of threats besides us three.” He said.

“They're children!” The bat yelled.

“Hold on, there's people in trouble and we are obligated to help, besides we're not defenseless.” Darwin said. “I have a cool hammer, Carrie is a ghost and Penny is a shape shifter!” Darwin yelled. The black hedgehog looked at the Bat, he then looked at the trio.

“Come with me, we're going to Station Square.” The Hedgehog said. “Omega, you're with me and the fish.” He said. “Rouge take the fairy and ghost with you.” He continued ordering.

“Agent Shadow, you can't just-” Luke stopped as Shadow looked at him.

“I don't have to abide by G.U.N's rules Lucas.” Shadow said before he began running. “Come on, try and keep up.” Shadow said to Darwin.

“Ugh, come on you two.” Rouge said to Penny and Carrie.

-Sunset City-

Two girls walked down the sidewalk of the city planning to get to the smaller rabbit's house, Cream, a rabbit with an orange dress and Amy Rose, a pink hedgehog in a red dress.

“Thanks for helping me with Groceries Cream, I really.” Amy set down her bag. “Needed it.” She said. That's when an explosion happened nearby.

“Eep!” Cream cried as a group of people and animals ran past them and R.O.B machines rolled in with a Small ladybug on a wheel rolling in front.

“Attention all citizens, I, The Amazing Commander Motobug hereby declare this area property of the Eggman Empire, as well as the newly allied with, Black-Cat Empire!” The Motobug yelled in a high pitched mechanical voice that echoed. As the Motobug yelled The R.O.B Machines rolled their heads and flashed their optics white and purple to show celebration.

“Cream stay put, I'll take care of them.” Amy declared she pulled out her oversized hammer and charged at the commanding Motobug.

“Ohmygoshcommanderlookoutshe'sgonnahityou!” A Buzz Bomber cried as Amy slammed her hammer onto an R.O.B machine and essentially flattened it. She then hit another on before hitting another one, one grabbed her by the sides with another approaching her but she slammed her hammer into its head and then hit the other's clean off.

“Oh, uh, release the Bloons!” The Motobug yelled as two DDTs were released and charged at Amy who began to dodge them and smacked one upwards before spinning and swinging the hammer into the other's engine causing it to fall, the one she hit upwards however continued to charge at her but a flaming bolt went right through it and pierced it. Amy looked back and saw the masked wolf sniper, Whisper, who was with Tangle throwing around Badniks with her tail. Amy smirked before turning to the Motobug while holding her hammer over her shoulder. “Um, please don't crush me?” He cried before a cloaked shadowy figure jumped past them landing on the ground before drawing two katanas.

“Hello Sunset City, I am Mr. Black-Cat, emperor of the Black-Cat Empire, you all may bow now.” Black-Cat introduced himself. That's when another bolt passed him. He seemed unamused by the wolf's attack before he threw his sword at her making Whisper dodge and Tangle duck before he stared at Amy. “Ah, Ms. Rose I presume?” Black-Cat asked before Amy set down her hammer.

“How do you know?” She asked with a scowl.

“Oh, my sources are quite helpful indeed, now shall we face off?” He asked before he held out his hand and pulled his sword back having also slashed Whisper's wispon. He charged at Amy and slashed her hammer on the actual hammer part before Amy swung her hammer at him before he dodged and put his sword between Amy and her hammer and held it down before she lifted it up and threw Black-Cat towards a building before he landed and spun his swords around before getting into a stance. He laughed before running down the street while dragging his katanas down the street and jumping at Amy who used her hammer like a shield which Black-Cat smiled under his mask at as he landed on it and slashed at her finger and actually cutting her middle fingertip which immediately began to cause her to freeze up making Cream come to help her up.

“Amy are you all right?” She asked. Amy clutched her hand nothing the crystals growing from her finger and as her hand became grey and it began spreading across her arm as she began losing feeling from it. Soon half of her body was gray and a large Crystal began growing from her eye as Cream stepped back in terror.

“Cream… Run.” Amy said as the process completed and she was completely petrified. Cream ran past Black-Cat who just looked at her and laughed.

“Robots, engage takeover protocol!” Black-Cat yelled as the robots began generating and building structures in speeds similar to the Amish building barns while Whisper and Tangle were picked up by R.O.B machines. “Ha, this is what the doctor had trouble with, some oversized rodents, how comical, and furthermore, unbelievable.” Black-Cat said as the statue of Amy was picked up by two R.O.B machines and carried off through a portal.

-Island-

MetaKnight had looked at the island and squinted before jumping down the Halberd and flying towards the island as he arrived on shore he felt a rumbling from underground. Immediately he dodged a red blur coming from underground he landed himself as the red came down with him and landed, it was some kind of animal with dreads and spiked gloves.

“Who are you and what are you doing on My island!” The animal asked.

“I am MetaKnight, a traveler of worlds who is recruiting heroes across dimensions.” MetaKnight said.

“Alright Knight, now what are you doing on my island, trying to steal the Master Emerald?” The animal asked.

“Well I went to explore, I had no idea about the emerald.” MetaKnight said before he sensed something from the deeper reaches in the island. He began rushing to his senses and found a man in a blue and yellow capsule abducting a giant green emerald.

“Gah, c'mon faster!” Dr. Wily yelled as he pressed a button that released a sound of an ear bleeding screech that made the Knight flinch. That's when a portal opened beneath the capsule and emerald and they descended.

“Hey, where's the Master Emerald!” The animal asked.

“It was sto-” MetaKnight was stopped by dodging a punch from a spiked gloves the animal was trying to attack him as he dodged swing after swing from him MetaKnight continued explaining himself to deaf ears covered by dreads. He warped away from another punch and saw that The Halberd had arrived and Saxton Hale had jumped down with Banjo in tow and got into a stance.

“Did you steal it!” The animal yelled.

“Steal what now?” Saxton asked before Knuckles tried punching him only to be blocked by his chest, suddenly his chest hairs somehow tightened up around the glove allowing him to land a people's elbow on him. “Any last words echidna?” He asked.

“Saxton, he's not our enemy, he's simply been robbed.” MetaKnight explained as Banjo looked at the altar.

“What's this doohickey?” Banjo asked before they felt rumbling.

“It’s what was keeping this island from falling.” The echidna said. Kazooie immediately took over and began flying as Saxton jumped with Knuckles still unwillingly latched on his chest. MetaKnight flew upwards before they landed on the Halberd. Saxton released the Echidna.

“Echidna, we are not enemies, in fact I'm quite sure they've teamed up whoever your's may be, I promise you we'll help you retrieve your emerald.” MetaKnight said, holding his hand out to him. The Echidna scowled before shaking MetaKnight's hand and getting up.

“Fine, but for the record I'm Knuckles, not Echidna.” Knuckles said while crossing his arms. Inside the ship Charles was fiddling with the radio trying to find anything to play with him were Sword and Blade chuckling at him.

“C'mon can't there be anything?” Charles asked.

“Mate we're in the middle of the ocean, there's probably-” Blade stopped as they heard a voice.

“Oi, go back!” Sword yelled as Charles went back to the station, they heard a female voice begin speaking.

“This is Lanolin of the Diamond Cutters, we have Tangle and Whisper incapacitated and captured, Amy Rose is also reportedly missing presumed- presumed dead. Sunset City is captured, calling all agents to aid in reclaiming it!” The voice of someone named Lanolin yelled. The distress signal repeated leading to the three looking at each other.

“Blimey, we gotta tell MetaKnight!” Blade said.

“Right ahead of you.” Charles said as they began running to MetaKnight. They ran outside seeing the Meta Knights & Knuckles standing outside. “MetaKnight, there's a city in trouble! I think it was called Sunset City.” Charles said.

“Sunset City? Eggman.” Knuckles said.

“Is that your villain?” MetaKnight asked.

“He's stolen my emerald and tried to kill me and my friends for world domination.” Knuckles explained.

“Well, what are we waiting for?” Ellie asked, “let's save it!” She yelled.

“I like her.” Knuckles said with a grin.

“I suppose I shall introduce the crew.” MetaKnight said. "Once again, I am MetaKnight, leader of the newly formed Meta Knights." He said bowing.

"I'm Ellie and He's Henry, we're former criminals." Ellie said as Henry nodded.

"I am Adora, Goddess of the Sun." Adora said as her eyes glowed.

"We're Banjo-Kazooie, professional treasure hunters-" Banjo was cut off by Kazooie

"And Witch beaters!" Kazooie yelled.

"I'm Mike, I like pimento cheese sandwiches and that sort." Mike said casually.

“Name's Sans, guess you could say I'm a Seriff of sorts.” Sans said not really seeming to care.

“I'm Saxton Hale, the toughest Aussie you'll meet, and a man with a love for hunting animals.” Saxton Hale said with a confident edge

“I'm Gustavo and the rat's name is Brick, he's a sweetheart.” Gustavo said.

“He?” Knuckles asked. “No offense but that's a girl rat.” Knuckles said.

“Wait Brick you are?” Gustavo asked as Brick nodded.

“I bloody knew it!” Saxton yelled as Charles handed him a twenty dollar bill.

“There's no time to discuss gender matters, come, we must save that city!” MetaKnight yelled as he pointed his sword forward.

-Station Square-

Rocky and Ridley stood on a street as People recorded them and stared, Ridley was using his tail as a drill, searching for the last three emeralds Black-Cat was talking about. Surrounded by Toppat Soldiers in armor.

“Citizens keep away, we are performing an important operation.” A soldier said before a child approached him.

“Kill it.” Ridley said.

“But we can just pu-”

“Did he bloody stutter, kill the bloody thing.” Rocky said as the soldier pointed his weapon at the child making people gasp. He clenched the trigger as a black and red flash swiftly removed the child from danger.

“Huh?” The soldier said.

“Why not pick on someone your own size?” A raspy voice said. It was Shadow resulting in cheers.

“Bloody hell, shoot him!” Rocky yelled as the soldiers began opening fire. Suddenly the robot jumped in front of Shadow which just deflected the bullets behind them Carrie, Darwin, Penny, and Rogue were beginning to attack from behind, Carrie possessed a Soldier and shot Rocky a bunch making him grunt.

“Dammit.” Ridley snarled before Firing a blast from his mouth incinerating the soldier and leaving Carrie out before Rocky shot her with rock salt knocking her away and leaving the rest to be dealt with. Ridley jumped up and flew around the robot before grabbing Shadow and roaring at him before Shadow slammed his palm into Ridley's bottom jaw making him bite his tongue and screech before dragging Shadow across buildings and throwing him down.

“Hmph, you're tough, I'll give you that.” Shadow said before Kneeing Ridley in the chest and jumping as he was rolled into a ball and began hitting Ridley rapidly, Darwin meanwhile began hitting Ridley's feet with the mallet. Carrie continued possessing Toppats and making them fight as Omega began slamming one of them into the ground repeatedly and Rouge with Penny provided reconnaissance and helped get civilians away. Ridley roared as Rocky ran in and shot Shadow who caught the rock and with seemingly little effort threw it back into Rocky's mouth causing him to choke.

“Hrk, beam, me out Scotty!” Rocky yelled. Immediately after he yelled a portal opened and he fell in. Ridley growled before he began walking into it.

“This was a bust, get to Darkside City!” Ridley called. Rouge landed and tilted her head.

“Darkside?” She asked.

“Ha, you're late for radio aren't you?” Ridley laughed before looking at Darwin. “You're his brother aren't you.” He said to Darwin. Darwin nodded as Ridley began stepping back towards the fish.

“How do you know him?” Darwin asked.

“Why, I killed him of course… I tore him apart, limb by limb, finger by finger, toe by toe, slowly, each time he screamed and bled and begged for mercy before I used that sword to gut him like I'll gut you eventually.” Ridley said before Darwin attempted an attack before Ridley snatched him with his tail and slammed him down. “I wonder how much you'll go for…” Ridley asked before leaving through the portal. Penny had become silent before Darwin slammed his fist on the ground.

“Who's… Him?” Shadow asked.

“My Brother, Gumball…” Darwin said.

“He was my boyfriend.” Penny added. Shadow grimaced before looking at the two.

“We're going to avenge him.” Shadow said. He snapped and his bike came in, “back to headquarters.” Shadow said. “With me Darwin.” Shadow said pointing to the bike.

-Central City-

Gumball began panting before seeing some robots that looked like incects including a Motobug, Buzz Bomber, a rabbit robot with a spring, and a crab robot. Gumball stanced up before watching a blue blur take care of the group making them release small animals which were caught by a blue hedgehog making Gumball geek out.

“S-s-s-so-”

“Heh, I see that you recognize me?” The hedgehog asked.

“Sonic the Hedgehog!” Gumball and Sonic said in unison.

“Wait, you have eyes, and no bandages, you're the real deal!” Gumball yelled.

“Eh, what are you talking about?” Sonic asked.

“Sorry I just ran into a bunch of knockoffs recently.”

“Ah, I get it, I've had like what… three? Or five fakers in my time, hehe.” Sonic chuckled before hearing an explosion.

“Phil!” Gumball yelled.

“Heh, your buddy's up there?” Sonic asked.

“Yeah.” Gumball said. “But how do we get up there?” Gumball asked.

“I have an idea…” Sonic said with a smirk. He grabbed Gumball's hand and began glowing blue. “Hold on tight, we're going to… Double Boost!” Sonic yelled as they broke through the rubble then moving to another pile higher up the hills. On said hill Metal Sonic had finally taken out the two tailed fox which was a surprising struggle for him he had thrown tails into a side of a building next to the incapacitated Mimi. He began walking towards Phil before perking up and seeing the rubble destroyed with two blue blurs breaking him into pieces. They stopped soon after. “And just like that…” Sonic paused while holding out his hand and catching the head of Metal Sonic. “Scrapped.” He said.

“Hedgehog.” Sage said.

“Sage, to what do I owe the pleasure?” Sonic asked.

“That's her name?” Gumball asked.

“She's Eggman's computer daughter.” The fox said.

“Tails!” Sonic yelled. He looked at the bruised fox.

“I'll leave you to your devices…” Sage said before leaving. Gumball and Sonic helped their respective friends up.

“I parked the Tornado not too far from here, how about you guys introduce yourselves?” Tails said as he helped Mimi up.

“Well, I'm Gumball, I got a sword and ended up with this guy.” Gumball said before shaking Phil.

“I'm Phil and after we fell through some portals that we…” Phil checked his pocket and pulled out a broken telemension. It sparked in his hand making him flinch and drop it. “Oh, well shoot, we have a problem.”

“What is it?” Tails asked before examining it.

“Well it's a… I frankly don't know what to call it, I like to call it a portaller.” Phil said.

“Wow, it looks like something that can travel universes.” Tails said. “I bet I can fix it up for you, Sonic you still have a chaos emerald right?” Tails asked.

“Yeah, haven't been able to find one after the island incident but I managed to find one.” Sonic said holding an emerald.

“Well what are we waiting for, let's get it done!” Gumball said in excitement.

“Heh, that's the spirit Gumby, if it's alright I call you that?” Sonic said.

“You kidding, you could call me anything, you're Sonic the frickin hedgehog!” Gumball yelled.

“Zonic?” Phil asked. “Where's the hat and overalls?” Phil asked.

“Ha, what do I look like an overweight plumber stepping on turtles?” Sonic asked.

“No that's- actually I'm not going to say it but-” Gumball stopped at the sight of the plane enamored by the sleekness and pattern.

“Hop on!” Tails yelled motioning to them.

“Mimi- *kzyt* am tired.” Mimi groaned. Gumball and Sonic hopped on the wings while Phil got in the passenger seat with Mimi.

“This is Tails and we are taking off!” Tails said as he put goggles on. Soon the plane turned on.

“Hang on tight!” Sonic yelled. Soon they were off the ground unbeknownst to them they were being chased by the crocodile, chameleon, and the bee.

“Wait up, Sonic we- *huff* have a mission. Gah darn it!” The crocodile screamed. “We'll get to Tails' place. C'mon guys.” He said while slumped.

“Anything for that Two million huh?” The bee asked.

“Shut up Charmy.” The crocodile said weakly knowing that he'd have to take a long trip.

Chapter Text

-Tail's workshop-

Tails was tinkering with the Telemension as Phil and Mimi watched, he had added some personal design choices as well as a slot for the chaos emerald to go into. Phil looked outside watching Gumball excitedly talk to Sonic about his adventures.

“Daddy, I'm bored!” Mimi groaned.

“So she's your daughter?” Tails asked.

“I guess so, kinda, Gumball and I found her and she just called me her dad.” Phil said. He looked up at Mimi and how tall she was, she was about the same height as probably Scout if not a little taller. Phil looked at the new pad and smiled before seeing a small rabbit with floppy ears land outside and run to Sonic.

“Oh, it's Cream.” Tails said as they began walking outside.

“Mr. Sonic! Mr. Sonic!” She yelled running to Sonic and Gumball.

“Cream, what's up?” Sonic asked.

“Sunset City, some robots took it over, and they captured Amy, Tangle, and Whisper!” Cream yelled. Sonic's pose immediately shifted before seeing Sage with a round red robot and a yellow cubical robot gathered in a floating machine.

“Hello again Sonic.” Sage said. “My father has an announcement.” She said as a hologram of the doctor appeared.

“Hello Sonic, I see you met my new associate's thorn in his side.” The egg said with a swaying hand.

“Baldy McNosehair, what scheme is hatching in your nest?” Sonic asked.

“Well Sonic I'm about to release the Flying Battery Two Point O!” Eggman yelled.

“Back to basics huh?” Sonic asked.

“I assumed that some nostalgia wouldn't hurt, plus I put in some other expertly placed machines from my other plans.” Eggman said. “I also gave Sunset City a new makeover courtesy of Mr. Black-Cat.” Eggman said as he sidestepped showing the petrified Amy. “Oh Sonic, You need to get there now, Eggman's doing so much evil!” Eggman said mockingly.

“Amy.” Cream said.

“I expect you all to show up soon.” Eggman said before cutting the transmission. Sonic grimaced before the duo of robots pressed some buttons on the machine releasing a giant ball.

“Get wrecked!” The yellow robot yelled as it was swung at the group Sonic swiftly jumped back as Gumball sidestepped and summoned his blade before stabbing it into the wrecking ball and holding on.

“Woah, hold on kid!” Sonic yelled as he hit the side of the egg shaped vehicle. It shook up the robots and Sage. Meanwhile Gumball grabbed onto the chains of the wrecking ball and resummoned his sword before stabbing the vehicle and making it leak all over him.

“Uh, we're losing gas.” The yellow robot said.

“Hm, what gave it away, perchance the oil leak?” The red one asked sarcastically.

“Requesting portal.” Sage said as a portal opened. The vehicle passed as Gumball landed and began coughing up oil and wiping his face off.

“Ugh, not going to try that again.” Gumball said as Cream pulled out a towel and handed it to him. Gumball took it and wiped off his face.

“So, Sunset City?” Phil asked.

“Let's go!” Tails said before they rushed to the Tornado and rode off. Cream watched while waving before seeing the crocodile, chameleon, and Charmy.

“Oh hi Charmy, what are you guys doing?” Cream asked.

“We're, *huff*, lookin' for a blue cat.” The crocodile said.

“Maybe we stop at Vanilla's.” The chameleon asked.

“Alright Espio, Cream lead the way.” The crocodile said.

“Okay.” Cream said.

-The Future-

Silver, Blaze, and the Riddle kids were running from the crumbling interstate being eaten by Klaptraps, a wave of blue eating away at it as the flying pirate ship flew back up and began to fire cannonballs at everyone.

“Hwa hwa hwa, keep shooting Kremling Krew get the silver hedgehog!” K. Rool yelled as Kremlings and Toppats began shooting guns at the group. Smiley was shooting back as Phred got close to stumbling before a Klaptrap lunged at him and he took his Machete and slashed its throat. Zack meanwhile bashed one into the side of the ship making it screech as it fell into the fire.

“This whole thing is crumbling!” Blaze yelled as she raised fire and scorched a group of Klaptraps. Silver meanwhile threw the Riddle Kids forward before attempting to slow down the ship. However K. Rool landed a sneak attack before grabbing silver and jumping up and suplexing him. “Silver!” Blaze yelled with concern before getting kicked by the Right Hand Man who then shot a laser at her while laughing.

“Ha, scurrying little things aren'tcha?” He asked as Blaze attempted to fight him. She raised up a wall in front of her before the Right Hand Man ran through and shoulder bashed her. “Sorry ma'am, just business.” He said before Zack ran towards him and punched him. They were both frozen at each other.

“Ah-ha-ah-ow!” Zack yelled while clutching his wrist.

“Metal skull kid, Phil made sure of that.” He said while tapping on his skull with his fist. Zack immediately felt something, the fire growing before he combusted into flames and slammed into the Right Hand Man and knocked him back using the axe to knock him back. He was warm, it was actually kinda nice but it didn't last too long as Blaze stopped. Zack saw this chance and saw Smiley running, he gave her a boost and let her jump off him and shooting the Right Hand Man before landing on his face and shattering the glass visor. And making him scream. “Bloody- dammit, you sly- Bastards you- woah!” He yelled before falling.

“Okay that's one dealt with now for-” Smiley was cut off as Silver landed at their feet.

“Hwa hwa hwa! Thanks for the emerald,” K. Rool taunted while holding an amethyst gemstone, at least it looked like one.

“Emerald?” Smiley asked.

“A chaos emerald, one of seven, it fell here some time ago, now he has it.” Blaze explained while helping Silver.

“I suppose you should be paid for this transaction, oh, I know, send in a storm!” K. Rool yelled as a black and blue blimp came from a portal harnessed to a metal frame. With it came storm clouds and a rain of Bloons of different shades. “Toodles!” K. Rool yelled while waving before the flying pirate ship flew through a newly opened portal. The five looked up at it and began to run again.

“I don't know how much longer I can run.” Phred said as they passed a broken signpost.

“Pa-st.” It said as they continued running.

-Radical Highway-

Darwin rode in a sidecar on Shadow's bike with Omega, he also watched as Rouge, Carrie, and Penny flew over him. He looked back at Shadow who he couldn't get a read on.

“So, what's your deal?” Darwin asked.

“My deal is that I sympathize with your situation… I've lost someone before, someone who was like a sister to me, you suffer the same way, and so do your friends. Usually I've found that one's vengeance shouldn't be widespread, but you have a clear enemy.” Shadow said as he drifted and went onto a street that led to an exit quarantined by G.U.N.

“This is G.U.N!” A soldier yelled at the gate. “Please step away, professionals are handling this situation!” He continued.

“This it?” Darwin asked.

“Affirmative, this is now considered Darkside City.” Omega said as Rogue landed. The group walked in since G.U.N didn't try stopping them. Inside it was a darkened skyline over buildings and billboards advertising different products with mascots galore.

“Woah, this is like a game that beats you with narratives constantly.” Darwin said before they walked up to a casino. It was labeled as “Shadow Casino” intrigued, they entered.

-Tornado-

Tails had been flying the Tornado across seas in order to reach Sunset City and free it from the shackles of Eggman's clutches However they soon saw a flying pirate ship fly by next to them.

“Uh, what's going on?” Tails asked.

“I don't see any candy.” Sonic said before a couple of cannonballs came after them.

“Gah, hold on!” Tails yelled as he began fidgeting with the pannell and flew above the cannon fire. Gumball looked down seeing the Kremling Krew with Toppats helping out.

“Great, Crocs.” Gumball said.

“Know ‘em?” Sonic asked.

“All too well.” Gumball replied before Tails had to move.

“Hold on tight everyone!” Tails yelled before performing a Barrel roll around the crocodile crew.

“So what's the plan here?” Phil asked.

“I have plan…” Mimi said with a shark toothed grin. She immediately unbuckled and fell onto the poop deck and began gunning down crocodiles Gumball and Sonic landed and began attacking crocs and Toppats.

“What, another Hedgehog, and Gumball, Gah, abandon Ship!” K.Rool yelled before he jumped and landed into a portal, Toppats and Kremlings followed suit and the ship started falling from the sky. Tails flew down and allowed the trio to jump on before it fell to the seas.

“Phew any longer and we'd be sitting ducks.” Sonic said.

“What were they doing here?” Phil asked.

“No clue but I'm glad they left early.” Gumball said.

-Black-Cat Space Base-

K. Rool landed onto the floor with the emerald landing on the floor, he looked at the purple coloring before seeing an R.O.B machine help him up and put another emerald into some kind of pillar with five other gems.

“What is this?” K. Rool asked.

“This is the Pillar of Doomsday originally meant to be five different pillars but was figured to be more cost effective to have all the emeralds in one pillar.” The machine said.

“Okay, what's it for?” K. Rool asked.

“Planetary destruction, it's imminent for many, we will be harbingers.” Black-Cat said from the shadows. “The power to judge, millions, billions, all at our fingertips.” He said while rubbing his finger and thumb before snapping. “Gone, just like that.” He said sinisterly. K. Rool felt discomfort, billions dead by his hands, what monster was this? He then walked by Ridley grinning at it.

“Ha, hahahaha!” Ridley laughed. “I like it, mass death at the press of a button.” He added.

“Kinda wasteful innit?” Rocky asked.

“Well, yes but it's effective in fear, we'll be broadcasting across the multiverse, Lexitron's already run completely dry and we have no use besides the labor which is much less effective than a R.O.B. So that's the reason.” Black-Cat said.

“Ah, so a display of power I see?” Rocky asked.

“Precisely however right now we can only wipe out an entire continent and at the rate it takes to charge, I can just send a fleet of old ships filled with nuclear weapons and kablooey, we won, but that takes time and energy one that a light speed laser can just easily deal with. *Blip*, just like that.” Black-Cat explained, that's when a portal opened up and the Egg shaped doctor walked in.

“So, this is what you wanted to show me?” He asked. He examined the Pillar before pulling out a dark blue gem. He held it to the pillar and watched as it was locked into the pillar with the six other gems.

“Yes, Yes!” Black-Cat yelled before pressing a button he then looked at a bar at a panel labeled “power” it shot up and was full. “Yes!” He yelled as a bar below it began to slowly rise, very slowly. “Okay, any moment now.” He said as it slowly moved up to a quarter of the way. “What's taking so long?” Black-Cat asked impatiently. Shadow Man and Mania sunk.

“Sir the planet will be destroyed in Twelve hour- AGH!” The R.O.B Machine yelled as Black-Cat threw a sword through its head making it jerk. 

“Why isn't it charging faster?” Black-Cat yelled.

“Well, it would go faster if all seven were in it.” Eggman said. “But probably not by much.” He continued. “But I don't know why it would take that long to have all the power of these emeralds. My grandfather built a similar weapon but it could still destroy celestial bodies at half the time.” Eggman said.

“You see that's what you don't realize, your's blows stuff up, simply leaving a trace, mine disintegrates, leaves not a trace, ash… and dust.” Black-Cat said he began to chuckle. “And in twelve hours that will be the fate of the planet, we have the power, now we just need time, and then… we'll rule all.” Black-Cat said before walking into the shadows. The villains looked at each other perplexed of how to go along with this plan. Ridley smiled at the idea of the carnage with Mania while Shadow Man and K. Rool were put off about it. Shadow Man thought about it thinking had Black-Cat… Who he used to be, had the woman been right? Was he completely dead?

-Outside Darkside City-

The Halberd flew towards the city covered by a dome of blackness.

“Hm, this evil, this darkness.” Adora said. “My powers couldn't be usable here. She said.

“Mike, I don't believe that you can move fast enough in this area.” MetaKnight said.

“Here, speed is key.” Knuckles said.

“Banjo can stay but I can come.” Kazooie said before hopping from Banjo's backpack. Henry nodded before taking out a scooter.

“Brick and I can totally come right bo-er Girl?” Gustavo asked. Brick nodded.

“Well it looks like we're a group.” Knuckles said.

“Now hold the bloody phone, I'm not looking to stand on guard duty again, I want some action.” Saxton said before punching his palm.

“I also have a motorcycle, mike you can ride on the back.

“No, I think I'm ready to sleep this one out. Sans can join.” Mike replied.

“Eh, I got shortcuts.” Sans said before walking off.

“Well what are we waiting for, race you to the finish!” Kazooie yelled before jumping down and flying. MetaKnight followed with Knuckles as Henry and Ellie drove off the side, Gustavo rode off brick, and Saxton Hale jumped off the bow. He fell the fastest breaking a hole through the dome as Henry and Ellie followed as well as everyone else. They landed at some kind of chemical plant Sans was wandering about it before seeing the group land in.

“Sup.” He said. The group responded by blitzing through the plant and seeing robots and zombies making some kind of red crystal substance that began emanating green when put into some kind of device. Henry rode through some of the outside before drifting and seeing a loopdeloop, he grinned and began revving his engine before he pressed a button on the side of a handlebar. Slowly a propulser came out of the back and gave Henry enough speed to go through it before he wheelied and drove to the inside of a laboratory and and sped through Zombies clawing at him as he did tricks on the scooter. Ellie meanwhile was driving through the plant and saw Saxton running through a group of robots that tried fighting him.

“Ahahaha, you puny bots think you can pierce my skin?” Saxton yelled before flicking a crab hanging on his shoulder and grabbing a robotic spider with a black and yellow abdomen, ripping it in half and a little pig coming from it. “Eh.” He said confused before MetaKnight & Knuckles began busting bots before meeting Henry, Ellie, and Kazooie. Gustavo had flown with Kazooie and Brick rolled to the group. That's when they saw a TV turn on. It was the Zombified Dr. Zomboss.

“Rhahaha, hello trespassers I see you've found the Bloontonium processing plant, see it's made our weapons seventy two percent stronger and our engines eighty percent more efficient, but enough about the upgrades and innovation, but a personal one I made, behold, the Mech-gargantuar!” Zomboss yelled, immediately a giant zombie with a mechanical eye and plates across his body rose from the ground with a bar that was emitting electricity into the shape of a cubical hammer. It roared ferociously at the group who began attacking it. MetaKnight started with a slash on the bicep and another three going down his forearm as Henry drove between the legs before he jumped off the scooter and did a backflip he felt that there were only three options…

Kick

Roll

Dance

In the spur of the moment he decided to kick.

“Stickmin Kick!” He yelled as his foot propelled him forward and kicked the Gargantuar upside the head while he then saw the axe and got electrocuted

Fail

Watch where you're walking-er kicking

Retry

In the spur of the moment he landed on his hands and began breakdancing aiming to trip the zombie. As he got close a foot stepped on him making him scream.

Fail

You've dishonored the Dojima Clan, cut off your pinky

Retry

In the spur of the moment Henry decided that he'd curl into a ball and roll on the walls before hitting the head of the beast at an alarming speed and landing back onto his scooter dizzied before shaking his head and drifting Ellie meanwhile was making the cyborg corpse swat and kick at her.

“Hey ugly can't you hit anything?” Kazooie asked before nimbly dodging a laser from the eye of the monster. Saxton jumped on its back before Knuckles started punching it in the gut multiple times before winding up and uppercutting the chin. However that's when Saxon saw a group of imps crawling on him and trying to bite him to no avail, one even chipped its teeth trying to pierce Hale's skin before he flexed and they were knocked off he punched the back of the beast blowing a hole through it and making it stumble before an imp in a Z-Mech tackled Saxton. MetaKnight immediately began a drill rush into the mechanized zombie and burst through its stomach leaving a gaping hole as it fell on the ground.

“Huh, never seen anything like that before.” Knuckles said as he dropped down.

“It's a zombie, one of Black-Cat's forces besides Kremlings, Toppats, and robots.” Gustavo said. Knuckles looked at MetaKnight.

“So this is what I'm up against?” Knuckles asked. “This and Eggman with my emerald.” He grimaced at MetaKnight. “I better get it back Knight.” He said before walking off. The knights followed.

-Shoodu Casino Zone-

Shadow was boosting through the casino at breakneck speeds as he boosted through a group of Egg Pawns at breakneck speeds before kicking one's head off and kicking it through an R.O.B machine's spine.

“Hmph, new egg bots?” He asked.

“Nope!” Darwin yelled as he slammed one into a flat circle. “Built by the company those guys work for.” Darwin said referring to Rocky and Ridley.

“Huh, just as weak.” Shadow said as he watched Omega tear apart an R.O.B .

“Annahilate.” Omega said as the other robot screamed in pain. They continued before Darwin vaulted into a slot machine it rolled three faces of Shadow Man dumping black goo on him making him scream in pain.

“AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, GET WATER, GET SOMETHING!” He yelled before tripping into another that rolled three faces with Gumball on them giving him a bunch of rings. “Oh, alright, for some reason I'm feeling a lot better.” Darwin said.

“Good, keep moving, these distractions aren't worth our time.” Shadow said as he continued running past robots before seeing Rouge jump in and out a slot machine. “Rouge come on!” He yelled as he also passed Penny and Carrie who looked lost but began following Shadow before seeing an extended hallway.

“So, how's work?” A Pyrobone asked another while getting water from a water cooler.

“Well I got transferred here after a malfunction of a Rob at the Globocorp headquarters, killing a few people.” The Pyrobone responded.

“Damn, they still act up?”

“Mass production, some workers can't keep up and a loose wire goes here or there, I tell you, Black-Cat should just have a processing plant ran by machines instead of using planetary slaves as a form of punishment, it just dilutes the quality.” The Pyrobone said.

“Hm, I see.” The other said before taking a sip from his cup which dripped past his bones and spilled on the floor. “Well y'know what they say, They alwa-” Shadow blasted through the both of them as they screamed before he was followed by the rest of the group. That's when they arrived into a room with a robot dragon in a fancy bow tie and Small suit. It began blowing fire at the group. Shadow weaved through the fire and flames before going in for a kick while Rouge spun around and dived into the dragon's face. The combo made it stumble as Omega picked up Darwin and threw him as he held on to his hammer making him spin around while swinging it. As he swung it Shadow landed just under the hammer and as Darwin rotated he propped himself up and was launched by the hammer.

“Chaos…” He said as he got right to the dragon. “Blast!” He yelled as energy was expelled from the hedgehog creating a purple and green field of energy around him that destroyed the dragon. “Pathetic.” He said before kicking the head of the dragon soon he noticed Darwin had slowed down and stopped.

“Woah-oh, did we win?” He asked.

“Affirmative.” Omega said as Rouge landed.

“You did great sweetheart, giving Shadow that boost really gave an edge.” She said patting Darwin on the head. Carrie hugged him as Penny landed behind them, they walked out of the Casino and saw a plane flying past.

-Tornado-

Gumball, Sonic, Phil, Tails, and Mimi flew into the city with Sonic grimacing.

“Yeesh, how boring you gotta be to wipe out the sunshine.” Sonic said sarcastically before seeing a bunch of TV screens with Eggman laughing on them.

“Hoho, welcome Sonic and Gumball, I hope you like what my new ally has done with the place, it's a little dark for my liking but it's still impressive.” Eggman said. “By the way look out for the robot doubles.” He said making Gumball look before getting grabbed by Gumbot.

“Gumball!” Sonic yelled with concern. That's when Metal Sonic grabbed his fleshy counterpart as Tails looked in surprise.

“Sonic!” He yelled before Ridley landed on the right wing of the plane.

“Well well, looks like I have to pick off the scraps.” He said before Mimi began shooting him in the face as he blocked with his hand making him bleed as some skin with green blood leaked from his hand. “Ow.” He said sarcastically before stomping onto the wing and making it go into a tailspin. Ridley then flew up.

“Get ready to jump guys!” Tails yelled as Phil began unbuckling his seatbelt with Mimi. The three jumped as Phil screamed as he saw the cityscape below and Mimi cheered. 

“Weeeeee!” She screamed as Tails grabbed her hand and Phil's. He began flying them into a building. Meanwhile Gumball and Sonic landed on a Highway.

“Great, you're back.” Gumball said.

“Copies, never stay down.” Sonic jokes.

“Gumbot Superior, Gumball and Sonic, Inferior.” Gumbot said.

“Hue.” Metal Sonic beeped. Gumbot then looked at the trio of fliers and Ridley before looking back at Gumball, then at Sonic.

“Data copied, battle mode commencing.” Gumbot said before Boosting into Gumball and knocking him forward on the highway with Sonic following.

“Hue?” Metal beeped. It translated for Gumbot. “Follow?”

“Affirmative, begin chase.” Gumbot said. They began chasing their fleshy counterparts as they boosted forward to their location. Gumbot aimed for Gumball as his cat ears moved to becoming a chameleons horn as a long tongue chased him. Gumball responded by jumping and slashing it off as it came back to Gumbot melding into him. Metal charged into Sonic who dodged the attack as Metal clawed at him before Sonic honed in at Metal.

“Jeez, how can you keep doing this schtick, can't you get tired of the whole races bit?” Sonic asked while facing Metal.

“Hue hue.” Metal beeped before shooting electricity from himself which Sonic easily dodged.

“Hue, watch it.” Sonic said mockingly before Gumbot materialized before him and knee'd him in the chest knocking him into Gumball as they both tumbled before immediately getting back up on their feet and running as buzzsaws missed them.

“Hue.”

“Noted, predicting movements.” Gumbot said. Before his ears flattened. Time then stopped, he had used Time Stopper, Flashman's ability. He boosted to Gumball and readied to kick him in the stomach before getting hit and exploding into chunks of cubes before he reformed. Seeing his attacker was Sonic who smirked and wiped his nose before time went back to normal and Gumball moved forward as Sonic gave a thumbs up before speeding through the highway as Gumball hopped on a rail with his sword acting as a snowboard and allowing him to grind as he rode down the highway and caught up with Sonic.

“Not holding back anymore?” Gumball asked with a smug look. Sonic gave him a sly grin and winked. Gumball hopped down and found himself running side by side as Metal got in front of them and an electric aura surrounded him and he rushed at the duo. Gumball responded by rolling as Sonic did, The then both attacked Metal Sonic with Gumball slashing the booster on Metal's back making him fall and tumble as Gumbot reformed and saw Metal Sonic tumble into him splitting into chunks of cubes.

“Haha!” Gumball laughed.

“All right!” Sonic yelled. In a building they saw Ridley fighting the fox, boy, and robot, Sonic got ready to jump before getting tackled by a Jaguar as Gumbot approached Gumball.

“Gumbot, wins.” Gumbot said as Gumball looked at Sonic fighting Nickella. He looked back at the metallic mirror as he shot a sword beam quickly to which Gumbot responded with a purple geometric shield reflecting the beam making Gumball block and flinch as it burst off his sword. Opening his eyes he saw Gumbot with a drill in place of his hand attempted to slam the drill into his chest as Gumball blocked it and pushed it off as Gumbot spun and switched to a Mega Buster and started shooting. Gumball then tried getting him to shoot th Jaguar that Sonic had just spun through before it formed on his left leg. “You are contemplating making me shoot Nickella, you are misunderstood.” Gumbot said. He sharpened his hand into a single spike like a Terminator, boosting at Gumball as he had him pinned. “My logic is superior, unlike you my actions won't lead to my allies getting hurt, or killed for my well-being, I won't get them killed.” Gumbot said as Gumball looked at Phil and Sonic. “I am superior, you are weak.” Gumbot said coldly. “And everything you've done.” He said in MetaKnight's voice. “Everyone you've met.” He said in Mega Man's. “Every place you been to.” He continued in Quincy's. “Erv'ry one ye kill” Demo's, “each person you meet.” Walt's. “We will kill.” He said in a hellish mixture of the rogues he's interacted with. “And you'll be to blame.” He said in a scratchy voice Gumball didn't recognize. Gumball was frozen as the sharpened arm reached at him making him instinctively block and attack back.

“I- am- not- weak!” He yelled as red lightning came from each slash.

“You are under pressure, increasing in aggression. Dark Knight, imminent.” Gumbot said as Gumball yelled and slashed him. He wasn't like Ion, not padding out a conversation, no banter, this wasn't Dreamland, this wasn't anywhere he knew. Not even in a world of a celebrity he looked up to, it was tainted.

“I- I- I…” Gumball froze. “I am…” He said as Sonic got himself free. “I am weak” He said weakly before Gumbot was hit by Sonic. “I left behind my home, my family, I led psychos to every place I've been and-” He stopped seeing Sonic. Then looking to see Tails, Phil, and Mimi.

“Kid, you're not weak, a weak guy would've turned tail and run from his problems, you wouldn't have went out and helped me and Tails with this place, and from what I've heard, you're a tough guy.” Sonic said helping up a tearful Gumball. Gumball looked at Phil who saw him and gave a quick salute. “Trust me, a hero will get hurt, and it is going to hurt, trust me.” He said. “But the lives you'll save, the people who will help out, they'll also get hurt, but you'll have each other.” Sonic said. Gumball looked at him and grinned. Gumbot looked at them and started walking away as the Jaguar flowed like liquid into him as he walked off. “Well, looks like there's one thing left to get to.” Sonic said looking at a tall building.

“Race you there?” Gumball asked.

“Nah, I'm done with races for today, it's time we finish this.” Sonic said looking to Tails and Phil who nodded as Mimi waved.

Shadow looked at the highway leading to an area known as Egg Base.

“We go here.” He said as Darwin followed him with the rest of the team.

MetaKnight & Knuckles looked at the pipes leading to the base of operation for Eggman.

“We go together.” MetaKnight said to the crew as they followed his speed.

Gumball looked up at the building and glared. It was time to finish this, once and for all.

Chapter Text

-Eggbase-

Gumball and Sonic ran through the base while destroying Badniks and R.O.B Machines on the way as Phil, Tails, and Mimi followed. Gumball looked at the TV screens showed the Eggman laughing at them.

“Dog ho ho, welcome to a base my new associate has designed.” Eggman said. They continued running. “As you may see it's quite high quality for a building made in only a few hours, anywho, the Eggfleet is on its way coming to pick up the Flying Battery, think you can stop me?” Eggman asked.

“Please, as if I haven't beaten you… what is it now, I'll say a hundred times, and I'll do it a hundred more!” Sonic yelled as tails began weaving through other robots and whacked a robot bat with his tail before they entered a room with A Motobug, an R.O.B machine, and a zombie had been there.

“Aha, hold it right there Sonic, I the Magnificent Motobug will take you down with R.O.B unit number 3793 and Zombie number 76.” The commander Motobug yelled showing off a red and gold R.O.B machine and a foot soldier zombie in red, white, and blue.

“What, does eggy not respect me enough to send a bigger robot my way?” Sonic asked. “Tails, your thoughts?” Sonic asked.

“I'm bummed there's not too much of a fight.” Tails joked.

“Silence!” The bug yelled. “I'm not going to fight you, but this will!” He yelled introducing a pile of purple goo.

“That's it?” Gumball asked.

“What is it?” Phil asked. It immediately began to pulsate before becoming a purple translucent clone of Sonic.

“No no no, don't be the hedgehog be me!” The Motobug ordered as the zombie grunted. The clone rolled its eyes and transformed into a giant Motobug.

“Heh, what's this, a miniboss?” Sonic asked as Gumball chuckled.

“Get them!” The commander yelled as the clone reved its wheel and boosted forward at the group as they all dodged it with Phil shooting it with some buster styled shots that singed the goopy creature as Gumball shot a sword beam through it making it swirl into a whirlpool of purple that transformed into a a huge Eggpawn. It started stomping about the room as Gumball got caught in it and found it fairly suffocating as he began slashing at it before finding a pocket of air and swimming into it and taking a deep breath. Looking around he saw his sword floating away he sighed before taking a deep breath and started feeling a sense of calm overtake him as well as some sludge, holding his breath he felt warmth come into him and his sword burst into flames causing a significant portion to melt and allowing him to get out. He looked at Sonic as he swiftly went back to normal before dodging a missile from the foot soldier. “Kill them, Kill them!” The Motobug desperately yelled before Gumball decapitated the R.O.B and Mimi vanquished the Zombie. Sonic put his foot over the bug and turned it on its side. It struggled with moving which amused the group as they saw the elevator leading upwards making them smirk at each other as they left the bug.

-Awesome Airspace-

Shadow and Darwin had made their way to an airbase that seemed to have some flying pirate ships and airships.

“That way.” Shadow said as Darwin followed with Omega. Carrie, Penny, and Rouge flew overhead. They went into a hangar, guarded by Toppats, Kremlings, Zombies, and Badniks.

“Oi, that goldfish is here!” A Kremling yelled. Krusha dropped down and roared.

“Oh jeez.” Darwin said as Omega rushed and battled the robotic crocodile Darwin and Shadow hit the sides of Krusha before Penny as a horse kicked the crocodile in the back of the head. Omega then started punching rapidly.

“Useless useless useless useless useless useless useless useless useless useless useless useless!” Omega yelled repeatedly before uppercutting the crocodile while yelling “Useless!” This made the mecha stumble before Darwin began slamming his hammer on the croc's head repeatedly.

“Chaos…” Shadow paused as bolts of yellow energy formed behind him. “Spear!” He yelled as they shot through the robotic crocodile making it explode repeatedly as it fell and looked just as lifeless. Just as he was born. Shadow then looked up and saw the dome opening as the Egg fleet arrived.

“Get over here!” Rouge yelled guiding them to one of the pirate ships. It began flying up with the rest to join the fleet.

-Halberd-

Banjo was playing the banjo while watching Mike, Adora, Charles, and the knights that's when he saw the dome open with a fleet above the city.

“Woah!” Banjo yelled as he plucked a string.

“Hm, maybe we should go in?” Mike asked.

“With the sun out my powers will be stronger.” Adora said.

“It's starting to look cloudy though.” Banjo said. “Won't that inhibit it somewhat?”

“Natural light is much less inhibiting, I can handle it more.” Adora replied before Toppat power armor soldiers.

“Well we'll have to deal with these guys first.” Mike said before drawing his gun. He looked at a guy with bigger armor and a sledge hammer with spikes on it.

“Take them out boys!” The man with the hammer yelled.

-Chemical Sewers-

MetaKnight, the other Meta Knights, & Knuckles continued their journey through the underground plant and fighting past turrets. However these weren't your average turrets, these were chickens, shooting eggs. However they swiftly passed them and found a map.

“Alright, we're here, so if we find the direct ladder to… Flying Battery 3.0 we'll get to the emerald.” Gustavo said.

“Something's not right.” Knuckles said. “It was too easy getting here.” Knuckles said.

“That's probably because when you have a group it gets easier.” Ellie said.

“Like a gorilla, yeah if you go in alone, it'll rip you in half unless you've got Austraillium in your veins.” Saxton said. “But add nintey nine more men, that gorilla will die, eventually.” Saxton said. Knuckles grunted before they felt the ground rumbling.

“Follow me!” Gustavo yelled before rolling on Brick with the Knights & Knuckles following after them. They rushed past robots before getting to the ladder and starting to climb it as they did it raised up above the city and above a pirate ship. Right above Gustavo a laser disintegrated the rest of the ladder above the knights making them fall onto it. It was The Right Hand Man with Rocky and Shadow Man's boys.

“Well MetaKnight, and the knights of the round table, prepare for defeat, for I, Ion, will strike you down, on live television! and radio!” Ion yelled before Spike ran to Knuckles and punched him.

“Urg, Sonic?” Knuckles asked.

“I- what- how- Do I look blue to you!” Spike yelled before Getting slashed at by MetaKnight before Meta began shooting at the knight before Ellie ran and drop kicked him as Henry used the Knee and knocked Meta off the ship. Knuckles meanwhile was fighting Rocky with Saxton.

“Bloody hell, why'd I get stuck with the prisoner and his pet!” Rocky yelled before shooting a rock at Saxton who caught it and threw the rock back into Rocky's mouth. “Guh, not again!” Rocky said before falling off the ship.

“Two down!” Saxton yelled.

“Three to go!” Kazooie yelled as she flew around and spun into a drill to attack the Right Hand Man who blocked with his arm before backhanding Kazooie and shooting at her before MetaKnight flew and caught her before shooting a sword beam at The Right Hand Man who attempted another laser but watched as the beam split as the sword beam glided through it and hit hard.

“Fool you are, nothing can pass through a swordsman's pure focus, even your most powerful attacks won't faze me.” MetaKnight yelled pointing his sword at The Right Hand Man who was on a knee clutching his face. Ion and Spike got in front.

“Let us see about that!” Ion yelled as he took out black orbs and began throwing them at the knights, the goo sizzled as they dodged Spike weaving past the puddles went for a punch to MetaKnight who blocked with his sword and swept his legs.

“You're fast robot, but it appears you've never met a Knight!” MetaKnight yelled as he slashed Spike thrice and kicked him off the ship before using his cape and disappeared.

“Heh, that's a good one.” Sans said. Before the knight reappeared behind Ion and slashed his back making sparks appear.

“Gah, you painful thorn, you, by my maker's name I'll strike you down and-” MetaKnight slashed Ion's chest making him stumble before falling off the ship, it was now the Right Hand Man who still clutched the artificial side of his face and coughed.

“If I had more in me I'd kill you all, but that'll have to wait, you'll be struck down, all of you!” The Right Hand Man yelled before flying off. The knights watched the flying ship and nodded to each other and positioned the ship to fly upwards.

-Flying Battery 3.0-

The elevator reached a peak for the five as they readied for whatever could come out. They walked into a room where they saw Eggman standing alone.

“Well well.” Eggman said. “Look what the pests dragged in, I suppose we shall face off shall we.” Eggman said.

“Go ahead eggy, take the first shot.” Sonic said before Eggman smiled.

“I was hoping you'd say that.” Eggman said as something went over him and a robot rose up, it was built similarly to him as it rose from the floor, it had a mustache and goggles on the face and a red body with two arms with spikes for hands and large legs.

“It’s the Death Egg Robot!” Tails yelled.

“How right you are, fox-boy!” Eggman yelled through the machine. The arm stretched forward which everyone dodged, Gumball then had an Idea as it began retracting he stabbed his sword into it and hitched a ride to the body before getting pushed back by some kind of forcefield. He fell off and landed on his feet.

“Nice try Gumball, but Sage notified me about your little sword tricks.” Eggman yelled before Sonic and Tails grabbed each other's hands and spin dashed; they were stopped by the same forcefield that stopped Gumball. “Fools, this forcefield blocks all heat, even organic heat. This means even your pesky bullets and lasers won't get through, and that little robot can't even think about getting in, I see the heat radiating from you all!” Eggman yelled before laughing. Sonic grunted while holding his noggin.

“There's virtually no way to get through it!” Tails yelled as Phil looked around. He then noticed the puncture in the arm of the robot.

“It's only shielded around the body and head.” He said as Gumball's eyes widened.

“I have an idea.” Gumball said. “Hey, Egghead, you just got lucky and I lost my balance!” Gumball yelled. Eggman shot out the other arm in response. Gumball stabbed his sword again and moved his body to have his own feet facing the forcefield and using it to stand on and slicing the arm.

“What the!’’ Eggman yelled in confusion.

“I used your forcefield to stand and slice open that arm you got there.” Gumball said.

“Why you, I'll give you credit you're more clever than you look but let's see how you handle Missiles!” Eggman yelled as missiles came out from the back and began to hone at the group. Mimi shot at them before Tails thought about something.

“Missiles have to have a lot of heat in them; there's no way they're getting out. Unless.” Tails looked at the forcefield and then realized something, part of it was open at the top, it was more like a fish bowl. “Sonic I have a plan, Mimi, Phil, Gumball, shoot the missiles.” Tails said as Phil drew his gun and Gumball started using sword beams at the missiles allowing Tails to drop Sonic onto the robot.

“Not so completely safe now are ya?” Sonic asked as he began Spindashing all over the robot tearing it to shreds and Giving him the opportunity to use the bowl shape to escape in style.

“No, you brats, try this on for size!” Eggman yelled as the floor dropped into the sky and they were under the ship, on a platform. A hatch opened revealing another flying mecha with large arms and spikes on the top, it was just as heavily armored flying at still substantial speeds it flew at Gumball who attempted to slash but was grabbed and slammed on the floor as Sonic homing attacked it but was backhanded, Gumball then noticed that it had started raining. “Ah ha, each time you attack I'll just grab and throw you back down.” Eggman taunted as Sage floated next to him. “Sage sweetie, what are my chances of victory?” Eggman asked.

“Ninety five percent sir.” Sage said.

“Excellent.” Eggman said as Gumball got up.

“Don't you mean Eggcelent?” He asked before dodging the hand and slashing at the wrist before Mimi and Phil shot at it and tails threw an explosive ring. It all hit the robot doing little damage to the armor.

“Good shot, but it'll take more than that to-” Eggman was stopped by a black and red flash breaking through one of the hands and a hammer bouncing off the head. It was Shadow and Darwin. “What!” Eggman yelled.

“Chances have dropped by twenty percent.” Sage said. Omega then landed with Rouge, Carrie, and Penny.

“Wha- Darwin!” Gumball yelled.

“Gumball!” Darwin yelled before giving Gumball a hug. “I thought you were dead.” Darwin said before Penny wrapped Gumball in her arms and kissed him.

“I can't believe you're still alive.” Carrie said as Gumball gave her a joking glare.

“Still have a giant robot to deal with!” Phil yelled as the robot attacked at the group that's when a purple flash drilled through the other hand and landed as MetaKnight with the Meta Knights. Then another group landed with them.

“MetaKnight!” Gumball yelled.

“Banjo!” Darwin yelled.

“Knuckles?” Sonic said, confused.

“Adora, Mike, Banjo, knights I thought you weren't able to come.” MetaKnight said.

“We found a way.” Mike said that's when a flash happened giving the doctor to fire more missiles before a blue aura surrounded them and they were directed back at the doctor. This heavily damaged the robot that was now smoking. From the flash came Silver, Blaze, and the Riddle kids.

“Smiley!” Ellie and Phil yelled.

“What are we, chopped liver?” Zack joked with Phred.

“Well what a reunion.” Sonic said. “You're outnumbered doc.” He added.

“That's what you think!” A screechy voice yelled as a mecha rose, it had a turquoise color, and was bulky with a cannon coming from the chest and a head that combined aspects from Wily's Wily machine and The Zombot.

“Nyar har har!” Wily laughed.

“Ra ha ha!” Zomboss joined.

“Ho ho!” Eggman laughed as he was picked up and sage warped into the cockpit.

“Mmm, yes.” Reginald said before seeing the scientist shake their heads in disapproval. “Oh.”

“Wily.” Gumball said.

“Zomboss.” Darwin said. The machine fired a blue beam from the cannon making everyone dodge as Sonic started running and spin dashing into a shield.

“Ugh, again?” Sonic said.

“Ah ah ah.” Zomboss said.

“Any organic material non-Black-Cat isn't allowed.” Wily said as Phil, Mimi, Zack, Smiley, Mike, and Banjo using Kazooie began shooting at the robot doing little damage.

“Titanium plating worms!” Reginald said. Gumball and MetaKnight shot Sword Beams at the machine doing nothing but leaving black marks.

“Well crap.” Gumball said before the machine winded up a punch but when throwing it just threw forward a bunch of zombies attached to bunjee chords.

“Yee-haw!” They yelled as silver and Blaze Used Zack like a shield and made his flames extend to protect the others before the zombies reached burning them alive.

“Ha, alright try this on for size!” Eggman yelled as the cannon shot forward a bunch of small robotic Sonic's. They were silver and had an etched smile on them as well as flat claw hands.

“Really scraping the bottom of the barrel here.” Sonic said as he jumped off one and Adora shot sunbolts that melted through them and got to the robot melting past some of the armor.

“Wait, look, it melted!” Gumball yelled.

“Of course that could do it, how did we mis-sunderstand?” Sans asked while looking at Adora who glared back at his pun. However that's when the wound began to patch up making everyone gasp except for Sans who went “Huh?”

“Surprised!” Zomboss yelled. “Inside of the robot there's a bunch of mechanical engineers constantly readying for any damage to the machine!” He continued.

“Grey Mann too, God damn you're some bastards!” Saxton yelled as he & Knuckles started punching the forcefield to no avail.

“We have everything to counter them but we can't hurt them, what do we do?” Phil asked.

“There's gotta be one weakness.” Ellie said before kicking a Sonic away. Gumball, Phil, Smiley, and Darwin thought about it and they all had the same thought.

“Itself!” They yelled.

“Good thinking.” MetaKnight said as he slashed through two Sonics. “But what could we use?” That's when they saw a Giant missile get shot out. For Gumball time slowed as he stabbed his sword into it and rode it MetaKnight saw this and flew Blade and Sword to get them to help Gumball control it as well as himself.

“Ha, trying to hit us are you, it's no use.” Eggman said. “You'll only blast yourselves away!” He yelled. Tails knew the Egg doctor was right and formed a plan with Phil.

“Zack!” Phil yelled. “Get the fire guys on the armor!” He yelled, Zack nodded.

“Monkey lady, Blaze, I need you guys!” He yelled. They followed, Adora shot out sunbolts which Blaze expanded as the plating began to melt.

“Oh no you don't.” Reginald said before he and the other pilots were suspended. It was Sans and Silver holding them away from the controls.

“Banjo, Brick, catch the missile!” Ellie relayed before getting called by Charles.

“Ellie I got a target on the robot give me the signal and I'll go in for the shot.” He said.

“Got it.” Ellie said before seeing Penny as a dragon joined the fire group. Banjo watched the missile come at him before it stopped in front of him as Gumball and MetaKnight caught to the ceiling and platform floor respectively as Blade joined Gumball and Sword joined MetaKnight. Banjo sighed before seeing Darwin grow his hammer to about the size of the missile.

“I need some people to hit this thing!” Darwin yelled as Saxton Hale, Knuckles, Omega, Henry, Ellie, Banjo, Brick, and their partners got in front. Omega held in Rouge in an arm cannon while Knuckles held Sonic and Tails. Smiley, Mike, and Phred defended the formation from the last remaining Sonic's as well. Shadow Meanwhile saw Sage coming out to summon more engineers and grimaced.

“Chaos… Control!” He yelled.

“Hit it now!” Carrie yelled. Everyone punched it, Saxton using his normal strength, Sonic, Tails, & Knuckles hitting it at once, Omega shooting Rouge at full force, Henry and Ellie using the Stickmin Pawnch, Gustavo Kicking Brick, and Banjo using the wonder wing to charge into it Knocking the Hammer away as the Chaos Control wore off.

“Kid what the hell!” Ellie yelled before a Chaos spear followed the hammer. Banjo smiled knowing what Darwin planned. Sage forced Sans and Silver back, allowing the Scientists to get their bearings. “Charles, shoot it now!” Ellie yelled as a beam shot through the chest and exploded the inside just as the hammer came back, now charged with chaos energy that hit the back of the missile and it made the Knights and Gumball fall before Silver caught them and the missile hit the inside of the robot making it explode and fall.

“We, we did it.” Phil said before Smiley hugged him.

“Phil, you're… You're alive!” She yelled while holding him, he smiled.

“Glad to see you're alive too and-” Phil noticed some of the blood on her. “Oh my God what happened?” Phil asked.

“Well I got shot and beat some people up.” She said. Ellie immediately picked her up and hugged her. “Ellie, how did you-”

“Phil helped me out back in MetaKnight's world.” Ellie explained as Gumball looked at Adora.

“Hm, do you know a guy named Quincy by any chance?” Gumball asked.

“Quincy, Son of Quincy?” Adora asked.

“Yeah, bow guy.” Gumball said.

“Yes, I take it you met him on your adventure?” She said.

“Yeah, cool guy too.” Gumball said as Darwin ran to Banjo and Kazooie.

“Darwin, that was one heckuva plan there.” Banjo said with joy.

“Yeah, way to help with the killing blow kiddo.” Kazooie said.

“Dude, when did you get a hammer?” Gumball asked.

“Well we were hiding from the Zomboss guy and it just came to me.” Darwin said.

“Dude awesome.” Gumball said.

“Darwin, Gumball's your brother?” Smiley asked.

“Yeah, why?”

“Wait when did you guys meet?” Gumball asked.

“The Pizza Tower Two.” They both said.

“Wait the Pizza Tower Two, that's where we went.” Ellie said.

“Yeah, I'm from there.” Gustavo said.

“Wow, that amount of times we could've met.” Gumball said.

“Makes you think doesn't it?” Phil asked.

“I suppose now we can go directly to Black-Cat himself and take him down!” MetaKnight yelled.

“Aw yeah!” Sonic yelled.

“Not so fast Hedgehog, I feel that you must stay in preparation that Black-Cat may attack again.

“Yeah, I already took our world's spot Sonic.” Knuckles taunted. That's when sparks flew and Mr. Black-Cat himself landed with Shadow Man materializing next to him and Mania spilled out next to him and rematerialized.

“Well, well, well. We finally meet, Gumball Watterson.” Black-Cat said. “You made it so far and I am impressed, however now, you die.” Black-Cat said, pointing his katanas at Gumball. Mania surrounded them. Outside the tentacles Shadow Man laughed as portals opened revealing Ridley, Rocky, K. Rool, Klump, Super Brainz, The BLU team plus BLU Mimi, Toppat Henry and Ellie, Z, Gumbot, Bass, and The Doise.

“Haha, looks like we have a good old posse fight on our hands eh boys?” Shadow Man asked while twirling his candy cane and accidentally shooting The Doise.

“Do'h, at least he didn't find me- gah!” The Doise yelled as Peddido picked him off.

“Smooth.” Mania said.

“Just get them.” Shadow Man said with disappointment. MetaKnight stood prepared dodging strikes from K. Rool and Klump and looping around Super Brainz punches before slashing at Mania who opened a hole in himself to dodge MetaKnight's strike before he began spinning into a Mach tornado and sliced up some of his tentacles. On the platform Silver and Blaze fought K. Rool and Klump, Henry Ellie and Mimi fought their evil variants, The Riddle Kids fought Mania with MetaKnight, The Elmornians fought Shadow Man, and the Meta Knights fought everyone else. Inside the tentacle dome Gumball and Black-Cat fought, Gumball began slashing at him receiving a block for each swipe before getting pushed backwards. He stood up and felt a hard object.

“Careful, Mania's tentacles are sharp and serrated.” Black-Cat said. He lowered his blades as he spoke. “Y'know seeing you fight makes me think, I can use an apprentice, a successor, and you could be a perfect fit, you're resourceful, quick on your feet, and you've defeated many of my minions, so what will it be, join me or die?” Black-Cat said.

“I'll never join you, after all the people you hurt all that you killed!” Gumball yelled, he saw the battlefields, he remembered Monkey City, Dreamland, and thought about wherever Darwin, Smiley, or MetaKnight's crew went he must've done terrible things.

“Hm, so you choose death, respectable but foolish.” Black-Cat added before charging and spinning his blades that were now on fire, he swung at Gumball as he blocked and pushed him back. He slashed some sword beams before Black-Cat dodged each one as the dome writhed.

“Gah, ow, cripes!” Mania yelled as Smiley shot him in the face before Phred threw a jar and hit him. “Euag!” He screamed in disgust as he looked at himself. “You stupid brats I'll-” Mania was stopped by a whack to the face from Zack's axe. Saxton Hale was wrestling with K. Rool who knocked his punch with a gut check and kicked him into Klump who swung his fists down on the back of his shoulders, Saxton punched back before K. Rool tried uppercutting him but got his fingers caught in his mustache before swinging him upwards and letting the crocodile land on his fist before swinging him off the platform.

“Hwaaaaaa!” K. Rool yelled as Saxton flicked Klump off the platform afterwards before reorganizing his hat. Ellie then kicked her copy's top hat off and punched her before getting kicked in the stomach and grabbing her double and wrestling, Smiley saw the two fighting.

“S-smiley, I need some help here.” One of them yelled.

“Kid, it's her, shoot her!” The other said.

“Smiley, please, she's a murderous psychopath and will kill you after me!” She got the other one on her back and started choking her.

“Kid please…”

“Shoot her Smiley!” The Ellie on top yelled. “Kill he-” the blast blew off her face and made her fall limp atop Ellie who shook her off.

“Kid, Smiley…” Ellie said before grabbing Smiley's shoulders, her face dropped, did she kill her Ellie? Did she just kill- She was pulled into a hug. “Thanks, you just saved my life, again.” Ellie said. Henry meanwhile fought his own evil variant, punching him in the face before Mike shot him. Henry gave a thumbs up.

“No problem, not hard when the heads are twice as big.” Mike joked.

“Great swordplay Watterson, I must say you were taught well.” Black-Cat said as he threw a sword at Gumball who dodged it and it cut Mania.

“Gah!” Mania yelled as he saw some of the tentacles becoming stones and he cut it off. “Dammit.” Mania said before Sonic hit him.

“Heh, what kind of Badnik are you?” Sonic asked before kicking him in the face a bunch of times and spinning through the stone dome over the two and seeing a sword coming at Gumball's back he grabbed Gumball and pushed him away as the sword nicked his arm and made him roll with Gumball.

“Sonic?” Gumball yelled. He saw Gumball's fur going grey.

“Rrg, Gumball, run.” Sonic said. As Black-Cat slowly walked up to Gumball.

“Well would you look at that?” Black-Cat said. “Another friend of yours turned to-” Sonic punched him as he slid back and stabbed the platform and took a button out before pressing it causing explosions to light off above them.

“No!” MetaKnight yelled as he attempted to slash Black-Cat who jumped down and was being carried by Gumbot who took Sonic's petrified form.

“Guys c'mon!” Phil yelled before BLU Mimi punched Mimi into Phil who opened a portal as they fell in before Gumball began running in and looked at Gumbot.

“All, your, fault.” Gumbot said as Gumball ran into the portal. Smiley attempted to run in with the other Riddle Kids before Shadow Man shot the Telemension making three different shottier portals. Black-Cat then hit two of the supports for the platforms making everyone fall, the Riddle kids into each of the portals Darwin grabbed his and pressed the button before it slipped from his fins and fell to the ocean. MetaKnight watched as the knights held on to the platform.

“We'll meet again!” Black-Cat sang. “Don't know where don't know when!” He sang more as MetaKnight watched him. Oh I know we'll meet again some sunny day!” He continued as he cat walked on the platform where it was hanging and slashing the other support as it dropped hanging from a final support. “Keep smiling though just like you always do!” He sang more before looking down at MetaKnight. “Till the blue skies drive those dark clouds far away!” He sang before dodging a dive from Kazooie. “So would you please say hello, to the folks that I know tell them I won't be long!” He punched down Kazooie and slashed at her before Silver floated to him. “They'll be happy to know that as you saw me go I was-” he jumped off as Gumbot punched Silver who was keeping Omega and Blaze afloat. “Singing this song!” He was held by Mania who carried the other villains as K. Rool flew up with a propeller-pack “we'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when!” He held the note, getting back to the support and looking MetaKnight in the eyes. “But I know we'll meet again. Some, sun-ny…” He got into the Knight's face. “Day.” He said before the support gave out and the villains exited from a portal. MetaKnight flew and grabbed as many other knights as possible before regrouping at The Halberd and flying back as he watched Silver and Rouge fly in a different direction. He saw Knuckles and looked down.

“My apologies for not finding your emerald.” He said.

“It wasn't there, I'm assuming the guy who took Sonic must've taken the emerald. C'mon, we don't have time to lose.” Knuckles said. Mike looked at MetaKnight and got next to him.

“You alright MetaKnight?” He asked.

“I apologize Mike, no more half measures, next time we'll waste no time in terminating Black-Cat.” MetaKnight said before opening a portal for the Halberd. They had no time to lose, not anymore.
