(Man, this party has been great... But what are we even celebrating, anyways? ...I feel like me, Sergeant, and Ninja are the only ones who don't really get what's going on around here...)
Hey, there. If you're not too busy, there are some people I'd like to introduce you to.
...Well, here we are. Modern ASNs, meet your Classic counterparts from my old universe.
The name's Boulder Man, model ASN-03C. I can lift just about ANYTHING; And that isn't just because of my incredible strength, but ALSO because I have the power to decrease the weight of anything I carry!
ASN-04C... The name is Scissors Man! And my dimension-cutting scissor swords can pierce even the toughest of defenses!
I am ASN-05C, Tree Man! I can converse with animals, and have them help me in battle, using the blessings of Mother Nature herself to increase their strength and power!
I am Sun Man, ASN-06C. I am a follower of Sol, Constellation of the Sun, and have even learned a few lesser forms of his and even Sunstar's techniques.
I am Hour Man, ASN model 07C. I have already met quite a few of you... two of which I'm rather surprised they'd invite so easily.
And I am ASN-08C, Raft Man! My rubber body renders electrical attacks useless!
...Wow. ...They all kinda just look like other robot masters with small additions to their designs.
Y-yeah, well... I guess that means you can tell why they're the original, not the current.
Say, this-a-place looks a bit familiar... kind of-a-like the-a-air fortresses Koopa Brain... would...
But-- But-- how?
I see Somari and you other sickening simpletons have made it! But you are far too late. You see, it is fitting that the lot of you are too cautious to leave those emerald shards-- which shall soon belong to me -- back at your island! Because now, only I will benefit from this opportunity!
Oh, no. I-a-take it back. I-a-recognize that-a-voice all too-a-well not to know who it is.
That's right, you troublesome Adventurer! It is I! Dr. Koopenstein!
Tell me, "heroes"-- What happens to a Chaos Emerald once under the influence of the Master Emerald? Somari, Sonics, all of you?
Ooh! Is this the part where you--
You get a power from the Chaos Emeralds so prestigious, You don't even need seven of them! Sometal?
...
Ladies and-- well, ladies, I bring you...
.....Super Sometal!
!!!
A Super Emerald!? Hey, I thought they weren't supposed to be able to do that anymore!
No, I said we shouldn't be doing it anymore because it upsets the balance of Order and Chaos! (Also, your Hyper form was hard to look at.)
Either way, we need to take that thing down!
How!? The pressure it emits is too intense!
Somari, you faced this thing before, right? What do we do?
!!!
Well, we-a-never had to a worry about intruders using the-a-power of the a Master Emerald to-a-turn regular ones into Super ones since our guardian came from-a clan of Yoshies that could enforce or-a-seal the power away. But-a-now that the Emerald is-a-broken...It's-a-likely impossible.
That or we could-a-find a way to remove the-a-Super Emerald inside of-a-him.
Sometal! Crush those dirty do-gooders now!
UH, UH, UH! YOU DIDN'T SAY THE MAGIC WORD!
No.
Ow! I've been infected with something! It's a good thing I always carry some 1-up Mushrooms with me since the Weegee incident!
You-a-may have the advantage now,a-Koopa-Brain, but know that-a-this isn't over! Good will-a-always triumph over-a-evil! The-a-righteous will always find-a-way to pull through!
Gahaha! Never have I realized so much I needed something until I have received it! Pride cometh before the fall, eh, Somari? Now that that red-hatted menace is gone, the world is mine to rule!
Now, then... Who's next?
