. 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.
Thank you, Phi. And if I may be so bold...
...I think I know EXACTLY where to star-
Yeah, that's great and all, but we have a slight problem.
What!? How did someone else get in here already!?
Apparently, these two came in here when they first put down that barrier.
Indeed. And if I do dare say... I like what you've done with my old base.
...Your old base? Listen, pal; This place was abandoned when I first found it. The person who had it last was DEAD.
..."Dead"... Feh. Such a weak mindset in a world like this with unlimited potential. After all, the people you consider to be "dead"...
...May be more alive than you think! Nuhahahahahahahaha!
...A-
And what will you do if we DON'T deny? After all, we WERE here to kill off the old man... But any amount of trouble we cause here will be worth it in the en-
...You remember why we are here, right?
. Why?
INDEED. ALL LIFE IN LOCATION "DK Island" MUST BE ERADICATED.
this. I'm out. *Leaves*
Sorry to say, oh poor servants of Coda...
...But I'm afraid that if ANYONE is going to destroy this island... It will be ME.
Oh! Right... I should introduce myself.
My name is Mega Man, of Mega City.
I'm Sonic! Sonic the Hedgehog!
I'm Tails! And the red echidna is Knuckles.
I'm-a Mario, and this is-a my brother, Luigi! And I-a suppose you've already acquainted yourself with-a Yoshi and-a the others, right?
You two belong together, and I mean that in the worst way possible.
...who's this?
Just a magician who lives here.

Eh, makes enough sense. Just doing a check on the area to find out more about the fireworks.
If I end up finding something at the altar, I'm not gonna question him if he's stalking me.
Hmmm... (Now that I think about it, we did catch his name, but only from that propeller guy...)
Yoshi- (Yeah, I'm Yoshi. This is-)
Mate, I can introduce myself. Name's Fang. Fang the Sniper!
Kanako Yasaka, god of the Moriya Shrine. These two are Suwako and Sanae.
Hey, I'm one of the shrine's gods too.
And I was going to let you say it instead of me.
I mean...he probably doesn't care, right?
Unimportant tank girl's residence. You better have a good reason to be here.
You know, seeing as you took that from one of our droids, I think it would stand to reason that we could help with whatever you're making, too.
...Or, well. I say "we", but Techno and Orchestra doesn't really know anything about the inner mechanics of machines and circuits, while Jazz... Well.
Unless absolutely necessary, he outright refuses to be anywhere NEAR Gensokyo. For... Obvious reasons*.
...Still, I know my way around codes and whatnot, so maybe I could also help in this situation? Not to upstage Rika or anything, of course. Plus, there's a bit of an anti-tamperment measure in that circuit that only we can bypass if need be.
...
..So be it then. It would appear we have far passed the point of fair warnings. which means none of you will be spared.
They'll destroy the entire area by the time we escape to find backup. Each of us will take three and fight... Unless you have any better plans?
!?
(..Which means I just have to wait until his energy output forces him to give away.)
Ngh... What manner of trickery is this, Tiny Man? After all, you are only delaying the--
AAUUUGH!
Your.... your plan now, I see it... Trying to wear me down?
I expected a true battle! Not something cowardly! But if Tiny Man refuses to come out...
... (...Should I be running?)
Welcome, everyone! I'm your host, Vaati, here for some more shenanigans!
Truth be told, I must thank Coda, Beta Devil, and every other villain on earth. Your contributions to distract the "Heroes" down there is duly appreciated. The MVC-bots should stall everyone in Mega City as well-- and Scale Assembly Satellites will be too busy with Dracon to pick me up.
But enough about everyone down there. I bet you're probably (or probably not) curious as to what I'm doing here. Well, it's simple....
...I don't believe in Omniversal destruction. I don't believe in teaching anyone the ineivitability of their actions. I care for a utopian-- or, as you would perceive it, dystopian-- world where only the strong are allowed to live. That is my world.
Why this is relevant, you ask? Because obviously only the ones with TRUE strength should be able to enforce these ideas. And who better to do this...
..Then someone worthy of the moniker of the galaxy's strongest warrior?
...You two find some other worthless rabble to deal with. The ape is mine.
...First of all, for the record, miss Rider, it's THETA.
...Actually, as a matter of fact...
...So, yeah. Don't call me "Tau".
Anyways, second off... How?
Heheheheh... Well, it all began back in July-
You used a Dead Zone Portal, didn't you? (Not like anyone else could guess.)
...Spoilsport.
Wait, then how did you even survive the Star Rod blasts falling to Earth and killing off the other villains that escaped*?
Heheh... You think this was the first time I pretended to be dead?** This whole time, while the other villains ravaged the world blindly, I actually ensured that nobody would even know I was alive again... All so I could plot and scheme undetected.
...Nobody knew you were alive, hm? Who's THAT, then?
Greetings... I am designated as SWN-000. Though, you may prefer to me as "Piano".
I didn't really want to design a new robot, or even let my real assist-bot know I'm alive again, so I just built this one after a scrapped design for Disco.
Now, then... I thank you all for saving me the trouble of having to fix up one of my old bases myself... Now, get out.
Excuse me...?
Hnh!
Yeah, no, you ain't the same gal. Sorry, but I think yer gettin' confused.
Hey, maybe your memory's fuzzy. Whose isn't?
Shut up with the riddles and give us a straight answer.
Not much I can say. Time doesn't lie, after all.

I swear, people avoid this thing like the plague. Not sure if Knux is that good at his job or if people are just that paranoid*...
...I think I've got some answers.
...*Sigh* Of COURSE she completely ignores completely valid advice. See, this is why I just don't get you existent types.
Listen. If you think anything of what I said to Mighty just then disproves ANYTHING he just said? Stop it.
...Look. I'm sure Jazz would have a thing or two to say about feeling "inadequate" or "worthless". The problem is, he's too busy being a
ed coward.
I mean, SERIOUSLY. The ONLY reason he decided to start living on Shiver Star is because he's too much of a
ed coward to face the things he has done*. At least Dark Elf has the
ing courage to try and make up for what she's done instead of running awa-
...I'm getting off track. Look, I'm not good at pep talking or any of that
, but, well...
There are a LOT of braindead idiots out there who will claim to be "the best". There are meatheads like Bass claiming to be "the strongest". There are clowns like Tachyon and Prontoman claiming to be "the fastest". (No offense, Mighty.)
Hell, there are even pompous jerks who think they're just perfect in general, like that Proto MKII
hole, or Rotom. And I don't mean the character, I mean the species.
...But I come from the Void. I KNOW what exists and what does not exist. And this concept you mortal plane-dwelling folk made about "perfection"? It most certainly does NOT exist. Nobody is the best at ANYTHING. There will ALWAYS be someone out there better than you. And there will always be someone out there better than THEM.
Is what I'm saying making you feel better? I doubt it. Like I said, the person who would actually KNOW what to say in this situation is too much of a coward to even step foot in this entire region. So you know what? Here's MY advice, harsh as it may be:
Don't be a coward. Even if you're not the best, it doesn't matter, because NO ONE is the best. In fact, it only means that you can become even greater than you are now. But that won't happen if you just run away from the problem; In fact, all it'll succeed to do is make you feel WORSE.
...*Sigh* But I only succeeded in making you feel WORSE, did I? Oh, whatever; I at least TRIED. And I suppose that's what matters in the end, isn't it? Is that not why we decided to confront Regulus, or even currently trying to prepare for Beta Diablo? To at least TRY?
