Mountain Mines As the Dark Sword vanishes... Delta stares at his hand, balling it into a fist... shortly before freeing it again.

Huh!? How the hell did you get your hands on this Dark Soul power too!?
Oh? A little birdie told me... And besides, I was pretty curious as to how you were so strong compared to your little pals.
You said you wanted a good fight, right? Well, this is the moment you've been waiting for.
Bastard!!

Dark Muscler lunges at Delta DS, trying to punch him relentlessly, but has trouble landing a single hit.

Hey, what's up with these basic movements? No style, no grace... I think I've got the bigger picture now.
Without this power of yours, you're nothing special, are you? You're just another guy with a "might makes right" attitude. All power, no skill to make up. But in a fair fight...

Delta DS retaliates with a Delt Kick to the gut, sending Dark Muscler reeling...

Oogh!
Fighting without any skill to boot will get you killed.
Agh... er...
Enough!

Dark Muscler powers up once again, going back to his previous state...

Wario Estate Wario speaks with his visitors.

So, evil dopplegangers, eh? Sounds like an idea for a plot point that eventually got ripped off of.
But to tell you the truth... I have no idea what you're talkin' about.
Who're these guys? They look a lot like you, Mario, Luigi, and Yoshi, but... different.
Bootleg loser, Bootleg green 'stache, bootleg me, and bootleg lizard.
(Is this all you-a-guys really think of us as?)

Correct answer. Now come on.... We've got some work for you to do.

Disco drags Sniper Joe's arm, pulling him outside of the castle.

---

Heat Man passes out shortly after being fed the cure.

@TheHighTower : [I was planning on returning to it when things were less... cluttered.]{spoiler}

Mountain Mines ...

Dark Muscler powers down.

...Guess the poor guy really wasn't something after all. A damn shame.
Men! Listen up! We're goin' back to HQ and whipping you all into sha--

An explosion from behind catches Dark Musclers attention, turning him around.

Huh?

As the dust clears up, an imminent energy can be sensed through it.

So this is that same power you've been using, huh? Not bad! I'm feeling pretty strong myself!
Show yourself!

Dark Muscler without hesitation charges into the dust fist-first, only to be sent tumbling down instantly.

Boss!
I'm fine. But this power... Just what did you do to get so much stronger?
Oh? Isn't it obvious...?
...I only leveled the playing field a little bit.

Delta points toward the Dark Sword Chip.

Come out, come out, wherever you are...!

...

---

How long has it been like this? How long has it been that I've constantly been pushed around by others? First, that monster stole my life from me, using me as if I was some sort of tool. When I finally fought back, he sliced me in half. Now this ass is trying to pummel my face in, and now I find out it's because he doesn't fight fair?

...No. I've had enough. I'm not going to be another victim. I'm not going to rely on my friends to do the fighting anymore, not that I'll even need them after this. Tch... Coward. Calling me that while he's using something to give him the advantage on his own? I'll show him. I'll show all of them that I'm not a coward, and that underestimating me'll be their fatal mistake.

---

...I'll... do it.

The cave collapses, almost as soon as these words are spoken.

Mountain Mines As the cave shows steady signs of collapsing, Delta almost seems lost in thought...

......Power?

---

Mushroom Meadows Four individuals seem to be having a stroll through...

I appreciate your willing to act as bodyguards, Toads.
Don't sweat it! It's the least we can do!
Yeah! Sorry I wasn't there to help out with the Koopalings, though...
Yellow Toad
Heroic Youngster

Water under the bridge, son. What matters is that you're here now.
Yeah...! Thanks for bringing Mama right over to us!

Upon hearing this voice, the four look onwards to see Bowser Jr., leading a large Koopa Troop behind him.

Why did I let you talk us into going outside, again?
Toadsworth, don't be so rude! Blue and Yellow Toad will protect us!
You've got that right.

Blue and Yellow toad prepare to fight when Jr. yells out at them.

Woah, woah! Pump the breaks! Before things get any rougher, I decided to take things a bit easier this time.
What are you talking about? You guys obviously came here to spearhead an assault to kidnap her highness.
That may be true.. But what if I told you there was a to make us back off and leave you alone?
Back... off?

Bowser Jr. hops off his Clown Car, and waves a finger at them.

Those idiot plumbers aren't here, but I'll still give you one chance. One of you nominate yourselves for a little one-on-one. If you win, we'll surrender and leave you to your stuff. If I win...
...Well, we'll meet that bridge later. Whad'ya say?

...

Mountain Mines What's wrong, squirt? Is that all you've got?
Gh!

Delta flips off of him and hops a safe distance away.

Truth be told, kid, I'm actually kinda glad you gave me this chance to show my stuff. To tell you the truth, me and my crew aren't barbarians. Sure, we swindle our Zenny, and as you can see hear any land we find... appealing... we take for ourselves... But we never go for the kill. As long as there's another way, we'll take it. Life is sacred and must be preserved at all costs.
Unfortunately, that's the reason why I've never had the chance to get a piece of any of the action. Since doing so without holdin' back is more likely than not going to end up killing somebody.

Dark Muscler begins to transform, slowly....

But you can take it, can't you, big man? You toppled my men, after all. That's good enough for me. So what do you say? If you're not busy quaking in your boots...
...How's about a *real* challenge this time around?
...
Fine. I'm not scared of you, anyway. Come on then, tough guy.
Just what I was waiting to hear.

With blinding speeds, Dark Muscler zips in front of Delta with an instant Muscler Punch, which, despite barely being blocked, sends him flying into a group of boulders.

Don't even think about disappointing me! I didn't excited over nothing, you know!

Delta rises from the boulders, clutching his right arm.

(I... can't feel my arm. Even with my Impact-Core Assimilation, This bastard casually broke it in a single punch, and while I had my guard up.)
(This is bad. Of course there's more to this jerkwad than meets the eye that I should have noticed. How-- no, shut up, you don't have time to internally monologue, you can't let up. And you don't have the luxury to think, either.)

Delta fires an Omega Wave, which seems to do very little damage. Dark Muscler, however...

Let the fun begin.

Dark Muscler flicks the air, creating wind concentrated wind pressure which Delta instinctively dodges, before stomping the ground, forcing a chunk of rubble in to the air and kicking it at Dark Muscler.

Hmph. Pathetic.

Dark Muscler backhands the rubble to dust with an energized fist.

You're starting to bore me with these little kiddie tricks. Where's the action? Where's the-- hold on, where'd he go?

Looking ahead, Dark Muscler realizes Delta is nowhere in sight. Seemingly not bothered by this, he chuckles.

Heh. Hide & Seek it is, then. Let's see just how long you can run from me and my Dark Power, little man...

Dark Muscler nonchalantly begins walking....

---

Mountain Mines - Cave Delta slumps down, with a sigh of relief.

Ugh. Man, that was close. Another second there and I would've been sent back on a one-way ticket to hell.
This guy... how am I supposed to fight him? He is faster than me, stronger than me, and over twice as large.* This guy is in an entirely different weight class...

Suddenly, Delta feels an earthquake like force shaking the cave. Stalactites begin to fall.

Oh no.

The quaking continues. A muffled voice is heard.

Did you really think you could hide from me? think again.

As the shaking becomes louder and louder, Delta is in utter horror.

If I don't find a way out of this, this bozo's gonna turn me into mincemeat.

---

Gensokyo - Hakurei Shrine Suddenly, out of nowhere something slaps Reimu onto the floor, causing her to spill tea all over herself!

There we are. Now this is a much more fitting look for you.

Mountain Mines Delta stands in front of a group of wounded Power Musclers, all of them on the grounded.

Well? Does anyone else feel like trying me today?
Agh! Man, this dude must be cheating somehow!
Nah... you all just aren't used to facing a real fighter just yet. But don't worry, once we head back to HQ, I'll make sure you cronies do.
...
In the meantime, your orders are to stand down...

The leader of the bunch stands up, and begins walking...

...And watch a real pro get the job done.
Dark Muscler
Chip-Enhanced Power Muscler

Dark Muscler stands right in front of Delta.

Y'know, kid, I like your style. You've got some spunk, and I like that. However...
...You've made a mockery of the Dark Muscler Gang. And I can't let you get away with that for free.
...

Dark Muscler cracks his knuckles, and puts his thumb to his forehead.

Tell ya what? As a sign of respect, I'll even give you dibs over the first hit! C'mon, show me what you're made of! Or are you too scared to put you money where your mouth is?
...

Delta deactivates Field Assimilator.

...No. I've already wasted enough of my time fighting a pointless battle.
Fighting you has no purpose. Engaging with you all in the first place was a waste of energy.
All you and your stupid gang are are glorified bullies who project their weaknesses onto others. And I won't let you do that.

Delta begins to walk away, though Dark Muscler speaks from behind his back.

Yeah, that's what I thought, you little maggot. Keep walking... Like the fear infested coward you are.

Overhearing Dark Muslcer's backchatter, Delta stops in his tracks, turning to Dark Muscler.

...What was that?
No need to play dumb, kid, you know exactly what I said.
Only someone so afraid of the ineivitable would be in such a rush to run away.
But since you wanna hear it so badly? Fine. Wet your ears, because I'm not repeating myself twice.
...You. Are. A. Coward.
...

Static for a few seconds... Delta almost seems to be in a trance.

N-no... not a coward...

Delta then almost instantaneously reactivates Field Assimilator, lunging straight at Dark Muscler!

I'LL KILL YOU!
That's it! Hold nothin' back!

Delta hits him right in the forehead with a Delt Kick... which Dark Muscler seems to no-sell with ease.

H-huh!?
What's wrong, squirt? Is that all you've got?

---

Delt Kick (Speed/Neutral)- The user dash-kicks the target, usually in the face.

Mega City - Park Laser Joe and another unidentified figure clash.

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?

The figure jumps back, avoiding a Big Stomp from above, and throws Kunai at the two, of which are blocked by a Jewel Satellite

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.

Mega City While Viking Man is still shocked, Claw Man retracts his claws and repeatedly punches him square in his face with consecutive lefts and right.

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.

The blows continue.

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!

The blows continue.

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!

As Claw Man leans in for another punch, he is suddenly headbutted by Viking Man, who, after getting off of the Volt Wiring Gate takes the next few moments to recover himself...

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.

Mega City As Viking Man keeps a wary eye out, he spots an electricized arm with claws sticking out of the ground suddenly popping back down, filling the small hole with A large electromagnetic barb.

...

As the arm pops back under the ground, a burrowing trail can be seen leading to another area where it sticks out, doing the same thing again.

What the hell is he doing?

The same process is repeated twice until four corners have been filled with this same electric spire. Soon after, Claw pops back out of the ground.

Hah! Dat should do 'tha trick!
What hast thee done?
Oh, nothin'.... Nothin' you won't find out in a minute, bub.

Claw Charges ahead with another Berserker Barrage, not letting up on Viking, who blocks the onslaught pushing him back.

Thy endurance is forsooth most impressive, howeve--
Gzzzzzzzt!!
!?

They ain't never see it comin'.

---

Volt Wiring (Eletrcic/Earth)- Digging underground, the user creates an electric spire from under the ground. When two or more have been made and are in close enough proximity, they have the ability to emit an electromagnetic pulse to anything that enters in between.

Mega City After a dozen bodyslams, Viking ends it off by bending Claw's back across into his knee with a devastating spinebreaker, throwing him back on the ground soon after.

Submit.

I... don't think he had to resort to breaking Mr. Claw's back. How is he supposed to walk?
Better than blowing him up. And besides...Why don't you ask him yourself?
Hmmm?

Though Claw seems to be unable to stand, a few seconds later, he stumbles onto one knee... and then stands on his own two feet, staggering shortly, but eventually stopping, seeming to stand with little trouble.

By Odin's beard! Such blows couldst topple beasts-- how is it thee still stands!?
Sorry, bub. But'll take more than try'na snap my lumbar vertebrae ta keep me down.

Claw Man then begins to burrow underground.

Ooh! Ooh! I know that move!
You're right.

---

---

But Claw Man isn't invisible. We know he's underground, which makes this usage even weirder. Plus, you can see the spots he's digging through. He has to be planning something.

---

Viking Man keeps his guard up, readying a blade and a shield....

Mega City I've got a couple of steel claws that I'm about to cram into your--

Claw wildly swings at Viking, who dodges with greater ease before gut punching Claw.

Hast thou had enough!?

The punch has Claw reeling back, staggering for a moment-- though ultimately he shrugs it off, going for a Drill Claw. Despite Viking blocking, however, this is enough for Claw Man to bounce off him and go for a Head Stomp!

Yer in a world fulla trouble, now...pal... uh...

Claw realizes the Viking Man has fully grabbed his ankle, preventing him from doing the full Head Stomp.

Hey, ah... what say you let me go and we go out for a 'cupla drinks? My treat?
Nay.

Viking Man begins repeatedly slamming Claw Man back and forth across the pavement, creating larger and larger craters each cycle.

Huh....Well, that doesn't seem good.

---

Drill Claw (Impact/Cutter)- The user drills into the target before bouncing off of them. decreases defense even when blocked. Can be used in eight different directions in the air.
Head Stomp (Wind/Impact)- Defying the laws of gravity, the user will comes straight down with their foot extended and then bounces away.

Mega City What's wrong, bub!? I can see you comin' from a mile away! You get too carried away with mead or somethin'!?
Fiend!

Before Viking can attack, Claw strikes with a Tornado Claw, knocking Viking a degree back, though not by much.

Taste mine flaming blade!

Viking himself starts off by kicking a large piece of clutter at Claw Man, who slashes it, only to shortly see Viking above him, burning sword ovehead...

Awww, sh

---

Mountain Mines Eat fist!

A Power Muscler Power Punches, at Delta who.... catches it with the both of his hands.
H-huh!?
So, that's it, huh? I'm disappointed.

Delta grabs the Power Muscler's fist and swings them a great deal away. Before he can do anything else though, something holds his legs in place, keeping him from moving.

!!
I've got this bugger's legs!
Perfect! Let me have a crack at him!

As multiple other Power Musclers move in to attack at the same time, they are each greeted by a Core Shield, knocking all of them back.

Since it seems like this is all you guys know how to do... I guess that means it's my turn.

---

Mega City Ack! Oogh! Owch! Doh! Urgh! Owchiewawah!

Claw Man falls victim to an assortment of hacks and slashes by Viking Man all at once, finishing off with a powerful boot to the face, forcing Claw to skid across the street, slowly getting up angry after.

Why, you little piece of trash! Cheap tricks'll only get ya so far before you get torn down! Graaaaaah!

Claw angrily charges straight at Viking Man, which seems to catch Proteus' eye.

And now he's angry. Angry means irrational. Irrational means easy-openings. Yes, I know the irony of me pointing this out. Shut up.

---

Tornado Claw (Wind/Cutter)- The user jumps into the air with one claw extended and twists like crazy, turning them into a living cyclone.
Power Punch (Impact)- The user punches the target very hard, winding back before doing so.
Field Assimilator (Copy/Field)- The user changes core-types, transforming themselves into the highest field multiplier-core in the area, as well as taking basic control over properties of said core.
Viking Fury (Cutter/Flame)- When in battle for long enough, the user's weaponry will begin sparking flames, doing extra damage and turning the next few attacks into critical hits.

Mountain Mines A wordless Delta/Note teleports in.

...

He continues walking with out a word, unaware that it would seem most of the mines are in ruins, though soon he becomes surrounded.

...
Well, look what we have here! Some shrimp deciding to trespass on our main territory? Looks like someone needs to be taught a lesson!
...Leave me alone.
Huh!?
I'm not in the mood for any of your games. Next you'll try and steal my Zenny, and beat me up.
I think e's on to us, Boss.
Let me be, and nobody will have to hurt anyone. It's that simple.

He begins to walks away the "Boss".

...Hahahahah! Not bad for a little squirt like yourself! Nice bluff... but we call.

As the seeming leader snaps his fingers, Delta/Note is circled by a group of Power Musclers.

...
...You idiots.
!?
All I wanted to do was be left in peace; But you don't even have the brains to allow for that.
I warned you not to get in my way. Because if you do... I won't hesitate to put you down.
Oh, really? What a shame... And to think you could've lived with all of your parts in place. C'mon then, tough guy. Let's see just what you can do.

The Power Musclers all charge ahead.
