. This fails and he dies. However, now there are two universes, the second of which is based off of the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon universe.
. This fails, and now he shares a body with a guy named Walter. (Worship is currently in control, however, but he's better now. Ish.)
. This fails, but instead of dying, they proceed to lurk in shadows.
. This fails, and he is sealed away.
up again. Meanwhile, so does a robot named Coda, the trio of Badniks from before, and several other villains, making it a callback to (mostly) all above events, which is where we left off.
Hey, there. If you don't mind, I think I'll help out on this.
We can't afford to hold anything back!
You think I don't know that!?
Pretty neat trick, eh? A homemade little trick that I can do called Volt Wiring. When enough of these things're made, anyone who steps in between'll bet greeted with an instant EMP.
And the only way it's going down... is if one of us is down for the count! Now, you'll have to fight like a real man instead of hiding behind some puny War Shield!
Well, c'mon then, tough guy! You were yappin' about how you ain't gonna lose! It's time you put ya money where ya mouth is!
He's been outsmarted-- oh no I'm doing it again aren't I.
Mhm. How was he, anyway?
Since he didn't know what to expect, he couldn't escape this "Volt Wiring", giving Claw the perfect chance to alter the terrain to his advantage.
It might not seem like he did much of anything but raise the stakes even higher... but this is also a war of attrition. Something's off about that Claw guy. It seems like anything that gets to him doesn't phase him for long. When Viking Man broke his back, he recovered and was ready again in seconds. This isn't even mentioning how he initially had the advantage in melee range.
Then... Then Mr. Viking'll need to think of something quickly, if he wants to win... because it's starting to turn into an uphill battle for him.
...Huh. I... Suppose that works.
...So, you're the Brash Crew, right? It's nice to meet you guys properly!
Shut it. I don't know how these fools got in, but rest assured, they aren't leaving this place alive.
Oh, come on now. Don't think you didn't see this coming. The time for you to face the demons of your past.
More like the demons forced to serve another demon. If you truly WERE of my past, you wouldn't be serving that Devil. What does it even serve him to attack this place, anyways!?
...To put simply... It gets you out of the master's way.
...
...That settles it, then. You are NOT me. You are NOTHING like me... You're just a cheap imitation.
...Because I don't serve ANYONE... I COMMAND.
...A cheap imitation, eh? Alright, then...
...Let's see you PROVE IT.
Just a few members, but yep, that's us!
It's certainly pleasant to see you three again*. I wish we could find a chance to meet in calmer times...
Speaking of which...do we have any idea where that giant...thing came from?
Oh!!
What happened?! What's going on?!
Hey, uh...you all right, Sanae?
...super mario in real life
...
Well, it's not like I have my own evil doppelganger to fight.
Indeed... Because you already ARE a fiend yourself.
...Excuse m-
X...? I'm sorry, but I don't exactly think I know who that is...
(Unless... Is he referring to Dr. Light's secret project?*)
(...No... That's impossible... Only me and Roll are supposed to know about it...)
...To answer your question about that giant robot, I'm afraid we don't have any sort of clue... Though, it might have to do with why we're here.
I dunno... I have the nagging suspicion that, whatever that giant machine was, or why it was here... It might not have anything to do with our situation.
Well, guess it wouldn't hurt to ask anyway. What does bring you here?
Oh, that's cold, that's-
Who are you and why are you here?!
I swear, I'm just a friendly merchant! I wanted to sell-
Sell the sanctuary's treasures?! Absolutely not!
It's my duty to protect this sanctuary, and I won't fail again!
Please, can't we just talk about th-
Your speed is formidable. It is a shame that your ambition will not come to pass.
Just who are you? You attacked the two of us from out of nowhere just to ambush us, and yet you've refused to cause no harm on any citizens? Why?
Nothing more than what needs to be done shall be done. Our task is reduce this City due to it's weakness, at that will be accomplished.
...We're-a here to find help for-a facing off against two different enemies... Enemies that know themselves as-a Beta Devil... and Coda.
Mario decided we should try and gather a particular group... And believes that this place is a good place to start. Especially since it hopefully means having YOU all on board, as well.
