(Damn! one more attack with that kind of power, and I'm done for!)
AAAAAAAAAAGHHH! SAY GOODNIGHT!

Mech-tenant's fist flies forward towards Rainbow Man Eternal... but stops short, as his entire, now limp body begins to slump as well...

...
MECH!

That seems like something that will always happen to him at the worst time possible.

...Hah! It's over! I've won! There's no possible way any of you can beat me anymore!
I wonder about that.

Rainbow Man Eternal chuckles.

Heheh! For a group of weaklings, you at least provide me proper comedy! Well, wonder as much as you like! It doesn't matter WHAT you do anymore!

Rainbow Man Eternal charges towards Prototype, aiming a kick towards him.... but Prototype dodges, delivering a strong elbow to Rainbow Man Eternal's face!

Urgh!
WHAT THE HELL!?

Rainbow Man Eternal clutches his cheek...

I felt that... I actually felt that!

He then turns to Prototype.

WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!?
...
Oh, nothing too deva--
THAT'S not contrived!
I didn't start yet.
Oh. Carry on.

---

---

Except for your ego, that is. But even that seems to be on it's last legs, judging by your reaction.
You... I DESTROY YOU!!!
Wow. What a riveting threat. Sure haven't heard anything like that before.
It's three on one. You've gotten substantially weaker, and after the beating Mech-tenant just unloaded, I doubt you're in good enough shape to retaliate.
This cannot happen to me...! NO! I REFUSE IT!
NO!!! I MAKE YOU PAYING!!!! RAAAAAAAAAA...!

Rainbow Man begins to surge with more power, charging at Soul....!

AAAAAAAAAAAGAGAGAGAGAGAGAAAGHHHHHH--!
*le reverte to regulare*
...Oh, now THAT is some Grade-A bullsh--

Rainbow Man Eternal is quickly punched in the face by Soul and A. Rock at the exact same time, with a Hyper Flare on Soul's end!

(cont. from previous post)

---

Space Orb (Space/Empty)- Soul creates a sphere devoid of mass that can expand or change shape without restriction, which also has the ability to nullify and absorb anything it comes into contact with, including Soul himself. All absorbed objects go to a separate infinite plane of reality known as "Limbo" belonging to Soul himself. If used in Limbo, it has the opposite effect, but has a quantity and limitation based on that of the parallel reality he was in.
Hyper Flare (Flame/Explode)- Soul radiates a cosmic heat around his hands, using it to create sphered fields of energy around his fists. Upon impact, they release solar-radiation shockwaves with the luminosity of compressed stars.
Hyper Attack/Defense/Speed Switch- A. Rock's second, even more powerful transformation-like states which can be taken on instantly to gain a near-limitless boost in Attack, Defense, or Speed. Stats cannot debuffed in these states, but overusage of this can cause Overheating (Although A. Rock offsets this with Freeze power).
SATURTATED ETERNAL XOR WAVE RESISTANCE ERASER (Shield/Experience)- Rainbow Man Eternal creates a white, large, extremely dense and extremely powerful field of energy around their entire body within a four-yard radius. This makes all attacks towards them impervious and also recoils any sort of secondary effect back to the target themself. Should this be broken, the R.M.E's level will increase by square (his level has no cap).
Dark Xerox (Shadow/Copy)- Mech-tenant, tapping into the Dark power in his reserves, transforms into a person or thing he previously made contact with in a metamorphosis-like style. The more powerful the individual transformed into, the more strain this puts on him. Transformations he did not make contact with or techniques that are beyond his understanding cannot be used.

( Gets Real) ♫ Battle Hymn of the Soul -Dual Mix- (Reunion) ♫

WRYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!

Besides Prototype and Mech-tenant, a Space Orb opens up. It's Soul, who cracks his knuckles at the sight of the powerful entity above him.

Oh, yeah. I owe that sick SOB one for knockin' me a loop.

He looks to Prototype.

Channeled your inner McGuffin power, I see?
Looks like it. I wasn't sure if it would work, but I feel like I've got a handle on this now.
You know, the fact Walter gave the ring to you, while ignoring me, when I've LITERALLY used the Ring of Hope in the past before, is kind of pissing me off!
Guess he was right, though... this is your first time tapping into its power, and you're already way better at harnessing it than I was.
You aren't the biggest optimist around.
Huh! That thing is still inside of you!
I am totally lost right now.
Enough. Let's go ahead and show "Rainbow Man" that he chose the wrong guys to pick with.

Soul cracks a smirk.

Let's.

While Mech-tenant focuses a palm on A. Rock's body for... some reason... a Space Orb appears below them, swallowing all four of them.

---

A. Rock, Prototype, Mech-tenant and Soul are all spat from the Space Orb and into the air, above Rainbow Man Eternal!

GET BENT, YOU STUPID RECOLOR!!

Soul attempts to break through the white energy surrounding Rainbow Man Eternal with dual-wielded Hyper Flares, which only fizzle out and then explode, causing Soul to recoil back!

Sorry to burst your bubble, but you won't be penetrating my SATURTATED ETERNAL XOR WAVE RESISTANCE ERASER with ease!
Drgh!
FINE!

A. Rock quickly steps in, now with Hyperattack Switch punches which begin to tear the energy field down!

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
(Blast it! If this keeps up, they may actually destroy my ultimate defense...!...)
(Heh... It's about time.)
YOU CAN'T HIDE FROM US!!

Out of the blue comes Prototype, who with his newfound Hope power delivers a supe-ified kick, destroying the SATURTATED ETERNAL XOR WAVE RESISTANCE ERASER... ....but...!

Hah! You morons fell for it!
Wh-WHAT!?

Rainbow Man Eternal's physical appearance begins to change yet again!

Despite it's cooldowns, one of the perks of my SATURTATED ETERNAL XOR WAVE RESISTANCE ERASER is that whenever it's destroyed, my physical level and the like multiply by itself! I don't think I have to explain why all of you four are automatically screwed!
IS THIS HOLE INVINCIBLE!?!?
NO! THAT'S IT! I'VE REACHED MY BREAKING POINT!

Mech-tenant begins to crack...!

I! HAVE HAD! ENOUGH!

Mech-tenant shatters during his Dark Xerox, revealing...!

GAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!

Mech-tenant, now under the form of Walter, begins to endlessly pummel Rainbow Man Eternal!

It's Christmas.

Yaaaaaaaay...

Let's see how like this!

Wile charging towards A. Rock, Rainbow Man Eternal grinds the two of his fists together, before converting the mystical glowing rainbow energy into his other hand!

SUPER RAPID HUE SHIFTING ULTRA ETERNAL MAGICK MAKING ATTACK!!!!
(Nuts...! I can't dodge or block in my current state. I could try a Smokebomb, but projectiles won't work, so he might just see me anyway! I can't just let him get me... I have to find a way to beat this!!)
No use try to avoid my attack! You're already dead!

A. Rock braces for impact, holding up his arms... before after a moment's notice letting them back down in confusion, as Rainbow Man Eternal zips past him, instead punching behind A. Rock!

SHINU!!!
NO!
Oh, crap! Commander!
LOOK OUT!
Look out for wh--
HAHAHAHAH!

Everything and everyone is silent... Until....

Hmmm. I suppose I should have suspected you'd try something like this. ESPECIALLY with you being one of Butler's goons.
(Ring of Hope Theme)- ♫ Skullgirls OST #08 - Them's Fightin' Words ♫

Rainbow Man Eternal realizes his melee attack has been caught!

Impossible! Even at 19%, there's no way this attack could've been deflected when his energy readings were infinitesimally before!
If you really think the impossible exists... Then clearly.... you haven't met me yet.

Imbued with the power of Hope, Prototype attempts to counter Rainbow Man Eternal with a punch, but Rainbow quickly sidesteps, dodging again to avoid the tip of Mech-tenant's blade, and then instinctively once more avoiding a kick from A. Rock, reappearing in the air above them!

Hmph! Guess I underestimated you after all!

---

---

It seems you're a better host than I could've anticipated!... So if you really are worthy of using that sacred object...

The sky turns a neon pink, as rainbows begin to form between every cloud in sight! Meanwhile, Rainbow Man Eternal begins to be enveloped in a bright, white sphere of energy...!

I wanna see just how capable you can GET!
...

Prototype looks on as the air around Rainbow Man Eternal begins to explode due to his overwhelming power. Behind Prototype walks up Mech-tenant.

...
Guessing you'll want my help on this one?
...Definitely.

...
FFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!

Soul crashes into the area headfirst. The upper half of his body is promptly stuck through.

MMMPH!
Ah. That is correct. We have not met as of yet.

With extreme effort, Soul pushes his arms against the surface he is stuck against tightly, only after moments of struggling pushing himself free.

Great! Two all-powerful know-it-alls and neither of them are useful enough to at least help!
You did not ask for our support, nor did you require it. Intervention was not necessary.
Uh-huh. It ever occur to you maybe I would appreciate the thought!?

Soul sighs, shaking his head.

Whatever. I gotta get back to pounding that disgusting paint-bucket overload freak. He got a lucky shot. He won't get another one.
Or so you say.
Shaddup. Where even am I? This where the aristocrats of this account hang out? You guys think you're better than everybody else, so you shut yourselves off away from everything to talk about how everyone else is a loser?
Precisely.

Soul does a double take at Hades' reply.

You're not even going to TRY to deny it!?!?
I believe he is only attempting to replicate "humor".
...Ya know what? You two are hopeless. I'm outta here.

Soul storms off... then comes back.

Rassa frassa stupid godlike entities... can't even do anything productive, gotta leave the work to everyone else...

Soul opens up a Space Orb and walks through it. It then closes.

Hmmm. A fascinating fellow, indeed. It is a shame when the time comes he will be the first to go.

As Pop and Defteros enter the room, escorted by Scale-Bots, Scale greets... one... of them. That is for sure.

Hey there. What's Breastsing? Wait. . What's Popping? Nailed it.
So, what gives? Just couldn't stand not being around a positively pounding Übermensch of a robot like myself, huh?
Well, actually, we-- Never mind. Yeah, let's go with that.
Hello, Scale!
Hello, vaguely familiar person. Watcha need? The bots recognize you as a high-priority, so you must be bringin' some kind of importance with this bangin' lady. If it's protection, I can guarantee you that won't be--
Rule three of the forums! Rule three of the forums!

Scale raises an eyebrow at Defteros.

Heehee! Sorry about that! Anyway, you probably know about the Butler situation. Pop needs a safe place to stay, and you were the first person to come to her mind!
Ex-SQUEEZE-a-me!?
From the looks of what she said, you're pretty special to her!
AM I WITH THE SAME PERSON I HAD THIS CONVERSATION WITH!?

Scale nods.

Go figure, huh? I mean, what would she do without me?
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!! EVERY GUY IN MY LIFE IS AN IDIOT!!!!!!

Defteros lightly elbows Scale, then whispers to him.

Just a tip: You might want make as few as "those" kinds of comments as possible.
Why? They're harmless. You can't assault a person with bant--

Defteros points to Scale the bottom right hand corner of the post.

...Oohhhh....
...I'm not promising anything.
Good enough!

Face stuffed with beans, the man looks at the image, very clearly lost on the current situation, but nonetheless nodding in affirmation.

(I haven't a clue what's going on here, but I'll act like I do!)

ROCK!
...That attack.

Stupid naming aside, it was incredibly fast. I couldn't even see him move. After that kind of firepower, along with what he's done to two of our strongest-- there's no doubt that this "Rainbow Man", even with his idiocy, is something to be taken seriously.

A. Rock collapses onto the ground. Rainbow man stares down at him with disgust.

Hrm. That's all you can muster? How pathetic. I've stepped on Lego Blocks with more fight in them than you.
....
I suppose it's better this way. Now, you're at my feet. Exactly where you belong.
...

Rainbow Man walks away from A. Rock's body, stopping short before Team Prototype and Mech-tenant.

Now, who else wants to lose? Not that it matters. You all will meet the same fate, one way or another.
Uh-oh! Can we really take this guy on?
....We're about to see.

Prototype steps forward. Him and Rainbow Man stare each other down.

Mech-tenant. You'll fight alongside us. Right?
...

Mech-tenant remains silent... and then... powers down!? Mech-tenant feverishly shakes his head!

Nuh-uh! No way!
What!?
But we'll need all the help we can get!

While everyone remains in confusion, Rainbow Man prepares an attack, but suddenly, two leg scissor his shins, tripping him forward!

Wh-what in--!?
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!

A. Rock slams Rainbow Man in the head with multiple, rapid, Freeze-Core Fisted punches before grabbing his legs and swinging him into the air!

FIREBALL METEOR!

While Rainbow Man is rising, a large, LARGE, flaming ball of space comes down and shoves him down back into the ground, creating a giant explosion!

I knew he'd be okay. There's no way Rock would ever lose a fight that easily.
Hoo...

A. Rock suddenly buckles down to one knee. He clutches his stomach.

That Psychowhatever hurt like hell. I'm lucky I was prepared.

---

---

A bright light emerges, coming out of it being Rainbow Man. He stares directly at A. Rock.

Nice try. Projectiles still don't work on me. As a clear inferior, I guess I should be surprised you're not dead... but somehow, I'm not.
You, though... you look like you've seen better days.
You're running on fumes, you lack the strength to dodge or defend yourself-- and I can assume your moveset is now extremely limited,
So tell me...

Crystal Man's arms begin to glow with a mystical energy, as he dashes towards A. Rock....!

Just how do you plan on defeating me?

Rainbow Man Eternal prepares a Calamity Pigment Starlight Punch, which Rock hastily defends in Defense Switch... but... A. Rock reverts to his regular form!?

What the!?... what happened?
...Hmmm. My Calamity Pigment Starlight Punch shuts down all buffs and debuffs. In your case, that must've extended to your weakling stat-based transformations...
In other words... you no longer have any ways to defend against me!
(Wait a minute...)

---

---

(! He can just ignore people's Skills?)

Desperately, A. Rock jumps back and unloads a Buster Barrage at Rainbow Man, who casually flies through all of it!

WHAT THE !!!
Projectiles won't work on me in this State!

Rainbow Man Eternal punches at A. Rock, who counterattacks with an Earth Gauntlet of his own. The two smash each other's fists against one another's, until Rainbow Man quickly dodges a punch...

I'll crush you into oblivion!

Extemely quickly now, Rainbow Man flies backwards, only in a moment's notice being out of view.

He's gone!?
(Not good... I'm at a huge disadvantage without my Stat Switches. And I can't boost myself up, either. As I am now, one attack from him would be all it takes to beat me, maybe even kill me. I've gotta keep my guard up.)

A. Rock glances to his left.

Nothing to my left...

He glances to his right.

Nothing right, either.

Behind him...

Nothing at my 6:00... and nothing under me...

(So he must be... above!)

A. Rock punches above him... hitting nothing except the air in front of him.

Gh!
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!

In front of A. Rock comes a flaming, swirling light filled with limitless colors!

TIMES FIFTEEN INFINITE IRISES GUT-WRENCHING PSYCHO CRUSHER!!!!

A. Rock is barreled into stomach-first by Rainbow Man's ambush attack!!

---

Calamity Pigment Starlight Punch (Crystal/Impact)- Rainbow Man Eternal hits the target with a glowing, powerful punch that does large damage and negates all buffs and debuffs.
Earth Gauntlet (Earth/Impact)- Weapons of A. Rock's that augment physical strength and defense, but lower speed. Draws power from magnetic core of the Earth.
Times Fifteen Infinite Irises Gut-Wrenching Psycho Crusher (Flame/Laser)- Rainbow Man quickly disappears before tackling the target head on. Destroys all defenses (if no defenses are equipped, then it is an instant OHKO), does immense guaranteed damage, and cannot be stopped or countered.

As any sight of Soul disappears, everyone besides Rainbow Man looks at each other.

I'm totally justified in thinking he deserved that, right?

Rainbow Man puts his hands to his waist, and scoffs.

What did I tell you chumps!? You second-rate wannabes are nothing next to the power of a Rainbow's Pride!
I... sure.
(Wow... this man seems really strong. He might be stronger than Butler himself!)
Heheheh. That lousy coward doesn't come close to comparing to me! No one does!

A. Rock steps forward.

Okay. I think I've reached my threshold on how much I can tolerate someone's existence. I'm going to mop this rainbow-recolor's into the ground.
Dude, you're going to get folded like origami.
Or we could use our numbers to our advantage and attack him together.

A. Rock goes into Attack Switch.

Nah. I can handle this prick. Probably. You guys just stand back and observe.
Another challenger? I'd say you're dumber than you look, but I'm not sure if that's possible.
That's cute, coming from you of all 'people'. Why don't you show me how dumb I look?
Very well, then! Your wish is my command!

Rainbow Man Eternal speeds towards A. Rock, who does the same. Quickly, they exchange a series of calculated, yet parried attacks, although A. Rock in the process is pushed backwards along the ground. Seemingly annoyed at A. Rock's resistance, Rainbow Man raises his hand...

Grrrh!
WOAH!

A lot easier to be around than his Earth counterpart.
True. But what now?
Ugh, who cares? Maybe old Butler really DID die! And we're just wasting our time spinning our whee--
Oh, no. He's definitely alive.

Everyone is alerted by the sudden presence of the shadowed figure nearby, quickly divulging their collective attention to them.

One of Butler's cronies. That's good. It saves us the trouble of having to hunt you down.
Who the hell are you, anyway!?
Who am I? Hah. Well, it doesn't make a difference whether or not I unveil my identity or not. All of you are becoming scrap in due time.

The figure slowly begins to spread with color, until stopping short. He points towards the group of robots.

I'm Rainbow Man Eternal, the Strongest Robot in any world to exist. Anyone who faces me faces DEFEAT.
...

♫ Dragon Ball FighterZ OST - Cooler's Theme ♫

Soul steps forward. He raises a hand, and squeezes it into a fist, shaking it menacingly.

I am going to pound this thing in so many different ways that once I'm through there'll be nothing left.
Don't do it, Soul. We need it's memory in tact.
Too late!

With immense speed, Soul darts off, quickly flying headfirst towards Rainbow Man Eternal's path..!

I'll make short work of all of you! Right here, and right now!
Here goes! Ilustrious Brilliant Light Radiant Spectrum Mode!
Do you have any idea how lame that--

---

With a single punch, Soul is sent absolutely skyrocketing, blasting into the sky until he can be seen as nothing but a twinkle!

I'm retiring from whatever it is I've been doing! Forever! See you guys around! NOT!

pssst this is a continuation of the lastest post from the pagest before but i raneth out of spacest so excuseth me

The Ring of Hope slowly, yet surely phases into Prototype.

...
With this, you should have enough power to handle anything that comes your way. Be not to let anyone try and overpower your Hope with theirs, and just as importantly-- Don't tell my other self about this.
...Understood.

After a few seconds, the glow fades from both Prototype and Walter. Junior turns to Prototype.

How do you feel?
...Not much different. Nothing's changed.
It will when you feel what you need to feel. There's a reason why I chose you. And not just because you're a main character.
Huh!

Walter begins to float into the air.

Wait, where are you going?
I have... something else... I need to deal with. May as well get it out of the way while I'm proactive. Ciao.

Walter vanishes... but what is it he's referring to? And when will the President return to the Earth? Can our robots stop Butlertype's rampage? Find out these things and more.... sometime later. I don't know.

Walter looks back at Worship.

...Well. If he had bothered to at least listen to me, maybe I would have let him in on my intentions.
Yeah? And what intentions are they, huh? Nutjob?

---

You're about to find out, Worship. Kai Kai.

Walter vanishes. from the realm around him...

---

...reappearing next to Mech-tenant.

'Sup.
Mr. President? What are you doing here!?
Yeah. And what's with the dumb getup?
....I'm not the-- ...you know what? Whatever! You don't need to know the full details!
Are you here because of President Walter?
No. I don't know where he is, but I do know for a fact he's perfectly fine. He should be back on Earth soon.
Called it.

Prototype steps forward.

Then what was the purpose of this visit?

Walter clears his throat.

I'll put this plainly. Butler is someone who needs to be stopped. And while I feel I can trust you all to do such, no such risks can be taken in this.
So you'll be helping us out? Sweet. More muscle is always appr--
No. What I mean is...

Suddenly, a bright blue light surrounds Walter!

This energy. It's familiar...
This won't be permanent, but it should do the job for long enough that nothing bad happens. If something bad happens, I'm strangling you.

Something phases through Walter, before stopping short inbetween him, Prototype, and everyone else in the area... The World Ring of Hope.



W-woah...! I never thought I'd see one of those things again!
...
Hey! I put in just as much work as that black-clad buttface! Where's my Ring!?
Gee, sorry. I'll get back to you when I find a Ring of Nagging.

Seven World Rings (Varying)- Made by El Grande Padre and sealed in a fictional realm, these seven otherworldly artifacts represent the balance of emotion itself. With each one being imbued with the ability to stockpile thoughts into dimension-breaking power, it is said that they who taps into the true potential of all seven as one can become the ultimate entity.

You will hand me the one known as "Walter" immediately.

Every Quint in the room points their weapons directly at Galacta Knight.

...
...Hmph. Sure! We'll gladly lend you that weakling half. And that other nobody trapped with him. His role is already complete, for all we care.
But--
Don't mistake my confidence for fear. If our needs weren't already fit, I'd gladly have crushed our puny little intruder any day of the week.

The Quint in charge snaps his fingers. Walter (and the Limo Driver) are released.

You and every other pathetic Quint out there had better mark my words and hold them dear. I swear on my life that you'll regret this day when the time comes.

---

Meanwhile, Walter... no, not that Walter. The other one. Yeah.

Hold on! I think I can sense my other self! If I can just communicate with him...

---

Walter manifests. In front of him is Worship, and at a further distance, Walter.

Oh, great. The dork's cavalry.
It's called Calvary. Also, what the hell happened to... me?

Walter turns to Walter.

Good grief. Why are you being so nosy? It's none of your business what happened or what's happening.
I beg to differ. You've changed since the first time we met, and perhaps not for the better.

Walter crosses his arms in defiance.

Things have changed. I'm not the same moron trying to get people's attention with inane antics.

---

---

What!?
So this was about what that Vaati punk, did, eh? It doesn't matter what that deadbeat said. He's gone now.

Walter rolls his eyes, sighing.

As usual, you don't understand. Just because he's dead, or gone, doesn't mean he was any less right.
I let everyone push me around for too long. And I also spent far too long caring about what other people thought instead of going by my own judgement. Now, I'm playing by my own rules, and utilizing my potential my own way.
Keep tellin' yourself that...

Walter walks past Worship, and eventually Walter as well. He then stops short past him.

We were originally both the same entity, so I feel inclined to warn you first; Stay out of my way. Or there will be consequences.

Walter vanishes.

(Damn me...)

Pac-Man quickly guards, preparing for an oncoming attack...

As Pop seems to revel in her own relief, Soul stares at DX.

...
(Who the hell is that? And how'd they know both where to find Pop and how to stop that thing from crushing her?)

It wasn't long before somebody recognized me.

(Hold the damn phone...)

---

---

With unprocessible speed, Soul pins DX against a wall.

You.
Soul! What do you think you're doing!?
This is an extremely dangerous person, Pop! We can't trust them!
I trust them! Okay? If they were willing to risk their life for mine without any hesitation, then I won't hesitate to give them the benefit of the doubt.
...

Soul scoffs, throwing DX aside.

Whatever.

He opens up a Space Orb.

We have more important places to be, anyway. Hurry up with your new friend and hop aboard. I'm not letting you out of my sight again.

Pop, carrying DX, walks through along with Soul.

---

Will any of this be important in the future?
Proobably not.
