Serges flies down with a large nano-tech ship, while the other three themselves teleport down!

When you're a mastermind, saving lives in of itself is a cinch!
It seems the self-destruction proccess has already ended. Serges, escort people on from the outside. Violen, recon from above and inside. Me and Violen will do things the old fashioned way.

Understood!

The four each proceed, splitting up to help however they can.

The X-Hunters hear the sirens and warning from afar. X-Kai quickly shifts his direction and looks from afar.

....We're going.
But captain, I thought we--
It doesn't matter. Above all else-- higher than Limited-- we do not turn a blind eye to jeopardized lives. Under no circumstances will we tolerate such.
X-Hunters! Move out.

The X-Hunters (minus Serges) teleport away, their destination being Neo Arcadia.

Rocky Highland ...After what just happened, surely we would be of assistance, right? Shouldn't we cooperate? It would be beneficial in numbers.
...Not interested.
!?
Captain, with all due respect--
Not. Interested. For all we know, they'd want to take it back for "experimentation" rather than terminate it like the useless piece of trash it is.

X-Kai turns around to meet the three.

Wily, Sigma-- I've had enough of it. We are going to do whatever it takes to purge the world of that sickening green blight that curses it. And we're going to do it right.

X-Kai begins to leave. One by one, they join him.

(The X-Hunters are,alongs trying to destroy Limited, attempting not to attract attention onto themselves than getting into meaningless conflict. It wouldn't be very smart of them to do that by interfering with their adventure, would it?)

---

Forever Forest The cage erupts, freeing the Boos!

No, no, no!!

Iggy's Clown Cart begins to slightly morph into a ghost machine, as Iggy desperately tries to recapture the ghosts. Pac-Man joins in, swallowing as many as he can.

---

Shiver City (28 years, huh? 28-a-minutes in of-a-itself seems like-a-handful.)

Somari sees Wario and Yoshles both fighting someone

Hah! None of those other Koopalings have the smarts like me! When the big man gave us the green light to bring "assistants" of our choosing, I didn't choose just one person...
...I chose a ga-- Ow!!
Roy Koopa
"Street-Smart" Tough Guy of the Koopalings

Hey!! What's the big idea!?
(It's about time.)
Not that I, and by extension, we, needed your help!!
Sorry, you-a-guys. I-a-had a little chat before-a-leaving.
How about you tell it to someone who cares and buzz off!?

Four shells slide behind Roy, stopping.

Oh, no...
We'll stand up to everything you've got...
We do whatever the Koopa King wants!
The mention of our being haunts...
The Hammer Gang will leave you to rot!
...Eugh.

Forever Forest !!
No, you moron! Don't throw--

Pac-Man throws the Bell directly at Imajin.

---

Toad Town Now, prepare for the wrath of the Ultimate Lifeform! Harrgghhh!!

Shadwari begins darting back and forth, quickly pounding on Giga Mac at unforeseen speeds!!

UGH! ARGHH!

---

A Random Street Walter walks through with his regular clothes.

Why are we here, anyway?
Because I have a life, and I'm not staying in the same stupid realm forever. There's no obligation for me to be there 24/7.
What about those whatsitsfaces? Their arc? They could attack you at any moment.
Too bad for them, I don't care. They ain't getting this Chaos Heart back.
I'm done playing by other peoples' rules. I'm done trying to follow my "hierarchical status". Besides. I've realized that I can literally do whatever I want, whenever I want, however I want. The only limiter is your mindset.
Everyone is a Character. Some people just like the idea of some characters being more special than others. Whether that's good or bad isn't for me to decide, but what is is that I don't want any special treatment, nor am I going to address anyone as otherwise.
...Ugh, that's cheesier than a Gourmet Market full of Parmesan Chiffon Cake.
Yes, and I will continue to be as however cheesy as I please.

Pac-Man leaps to the side while further away, dodging the head. He then proceeds to shoot two Pac-Beam from his mouth, one at Unknown and then again at Stanley, while bringing out a Bell!

---

GRAAAAHH!

Giga Mac does a Straight Lunge at Shadwari, who catches his fist with ease, retalliating with one with his own.

Judging from your mannerisms and the similar actions of that "King Bob-Omb" individual, it's likely you aren't in control of your own actions. But as long as you're the same monster that tears it's surroundings apart, I vow on everything I stand for that I will take you down.

---

Pac-Beam (Laser)- using eaten pellets as ammo, the user fires a laser beam from their mouth, doing moderate damage. This move bypassess resistances and immunities and ignores shields.

The Lemmy drone that Mao stands over begins to short-circuit. The fake ball explodes.

Forever Forest !!

Pac Man is blasted point-blank and knocked back! In response, he summons a Fire Hydrant, and has it fire at the two while preparing a [Bonus Fruit]{nature_weapon} to throw.

---

Fire Hydrant (Water/Impact)- the user summons a Fire Hydrant which spurts water out of its sides (or on top if someone is standing on it), pushing enemies and items away. Once damaged enough it will be knocked in the same direction it was hit from, turning into a projectile.
Bonus Fruit (Nature/Weapons)- the user holds out a bonus item and cycles through the eight. Once an item is selected, Pac-Man throws the item as a projectile, with each one having unique properties when thrown.

@SATAN Did you ask for permission to do any of this?

Suddenly, Agiles wings close shut, as an L-Seeker homes in on ""Capture Agile"" immediately!!

Humblest apologies... but this ride isn't free.

---

Wherever the hell Ali Tachyos is Walter walks through the fabric of space-time to meet him there.
Huh. So ya found the Chaos Heart, have you?
Congratulations! Unfortunately, since I'm not a complete moron, I can't really let you do anything with it. Would be lying if I wasn't curious, but come on this is how the whole Regulus bodanza started.
Here. Have a compensation reward instead.

Walter blinks, and the Chaos Heart is replaced with a button with a gold star on it titled "You tried". The Chaos Heart is however shifted into a psychokinetic bubble.

I know. Lame that I have to impede on your journey for it and waste all your valuable time simply due to a passing whim, but that's just how the cookie crumbles. Nothin personnel, kid.

He then just leaves with it.

...You haven't been listening to a word we've been saying, have you?

An irresistable force repels Replicapture from X-Kai!

You're an idiot. You spent your time looking for a vessel to suit you when you could've simply went to iX and hosted him while he was still alone. And even now, as you're outnumbered and outmatched, all you can do is frantically force yourself on the closest thing you can find.

The Spin Wheels begin to drive into Replicapture simultaneously as Agile slashes the armor!

Need I tell you there was no confusion about the fact that the Rolling Shield was up, and that Violen did it regardless?

ARGH! He got me!...
...is what I'd say if we were a pack of naive amateurs.

Nanotech begins to spread and grow back the chain & ball of Violen's Morning Star. Before Replicapture can counteract, X-Kai dives into him from above, with a charged Speed Burner, sending him plummeting down!

Keeping up the pressure, he jumps off Replicapture and throws a frenzy of uncharged Spin Wheels, with Agile swooping behind down from behind, getting ready to slice him with his Agile Saber!

---

Speed Burner (Flame/Swift)- The user shoots a pair of intertwined fireballs that travel in a straight path in the direction the user is facing. When fully charged, the user will instead dash forward at high speed while engulfed in flames, damaging anything in his path.
Spin Wheel (Nature/Cutter)- The user fires a saw-like disc which crawls along surfaces. The disc can destroy some terrain, and also specific blocks. When charged, the Spin Wheel instantly turns into eight energy bolts which fire in all directions.

X-Kai and Agile jump back, as Violen swoops in and slaps Replicapture into the air with his Morning Star!

We'd send you to space, but that wouldn't quench our desires. Besides, seeing as you came from the sun, you'd probably just come back all over again!

---

Toad Town Mall Our three heroes are badly beated by the mind-controlled Giga Mac.

Grrrr...
Ugh... Long shot, but you guys wouldn't happen to have any last ditch moves, would you?
I could-a-try calling in the-a-Cyclone...
Don't bother. As he is now, that would be useless.

Shadwari walks in front of Tailigee and Viewtiful Joe.

I have a plan. But you all will have to stay back.
You don't-a-mean...!!
....
(I feel like I'm missing some context here...)

Shadwari stands yards away from Giga Mac in utter silence. Seconds later, the rings on his fingerless gloves pop off.

...

You. You're a freak of nature, but a powerful one at that.
I didn't expect doing this to be a necessity...
...But it seems I am left with no other alternative.

!? How did that thing get there!?

As The charged shot approaches X-Kai, his expression remains the same, if not with a slightly more determined look.

...Tch. Bring it.

X-Kai brings out his X-Rapier, and slashes the charged shot in half, parting it away from him!

Fight as you might, you are pushing against a hopeless battle. You aren't real. You have no emotion. None of you do. The only thing you care about is power.

Suddenly, from behind Replicature are a barrage of missiles that directly target it relentlessly!

---

X-Rapier (Cutter/Shadow) a large, fast, and powerful scythe fueled directly from X-Kai's energy.
L-Seekers (Missile/Explode)-Types of missiles fired which isolate and target specifically the energy/readings of Limited.

Agile activates Agile Flyer, extracting a pair of wings to pursue Agile while he is in the air, all the while slashing at him! Opposite to Agile, however, Violen prepares for the charged shot, ready to shield it with his Morning Star.

You have quite the nerve comparing Captain Kai to that pretentious Reploid! But that is a mistake that we will correct. We will create the Utopian world, free of all ungodly entities... Yourself included.
Yeah! Funny that you in any world convince yourself that he is comparable to such a lowlife, or a possible candidate of yours as some kinda host!

---

Agile Flyer (Wind/Speed)- The user extracts rbotic wings capable of extreme flight.

The four surround Replicapture.

Go ahead, "commence." It'll be your last procedure before your demise..
Agile
Speedy Bladed Hunter
Not that it would matter, anyway. You Limited creatures are all the same soulless piles of trash.
Serges
Brilliant Engineering Hunter
Someone check the clock, Because I believe it's go time!
Violen
Brutish Wrecking Hunter

The leader retracts his buster, and directs his attention to Replicapture.

You. You must have a death wish, because if not, you wouldn't have come here, would you? Unless... Let me guess...
...You couldn't keep your eyes off a familiar face?
X-Kai
The Forgotten Proto-Reploid

As Agile and Violen close in on Replicapture with their Morning Star and Agile Saber, Serges works on summoning machines for battle while X-Kai takes a moment to survey Replicapture's reaction!

---

Morning Star (Impact/Cutter)- A spiked wrecking ball that is, although slow, can do tremendous damage on contact.
Agile Saber (Laser/Cutter)- A swift laser blade that compensates for power output with ludicrous speed.

Rocky Highland The quartet continue walking. The one in the back pipes up.

Say, uh, boss? I have a small question.
Ask whatever you have to ask. I'm all ears.
Why is it we've elected to walk rather than teleport back to headquarters? Surely that would waste much less time.
...Hmmph. The reason is obvious.

The leader of the four turns around, and pulls out a buster on Replicapture!

Because we needed a vacant area to terminate this mistake without attracting attention, and we are not combating this in HQ.

Canyon Cliff Four silent figures watch from above and afar during iX's arrival to Doppler Labs.

What a grotesque being! These "Limited" folk are all the same-- mistakes that only serve to endanger the world more often than save it.
Couldn't agree more. First this carbon copy, now that Replicapture parasite? Between you and me, I say it's time we go off on "cleanup duty", if you catch my drift.
All of these sentiments prove rational enough to act upon. What do you say, Captain?
....No. At the moment, It'd be useless. We'll wait until the time is right to strike. And when that time comes... The word "Limited" will only be a memory.

The four shadows turn their backs and walk away, the last one looking back before turning around in disgust.

*cough* Well, look wh*hack* we have h*wheeze*ere! Stupid little menaces that don't know when to mind there beesw*hack*!

Iggy tries to escape the bug spray with his Clown Car, rising above it!

Sorry, you miserable miscreants! But this time, the Koopalings will have their way!
Pain-Man... destroy them!

The second figure through the bug spray runs in place, and then charges at the two in ball form!

WAKA.
Pac-Man?
Coregeous Hero of Pac-Land Gone Corrupt?
