Chapter 12: Black Shadow’s Machine
Nana watched as the lava rose round them. The few plants that scattered across their world were being destroyed. Polar bears and Topis were running to the tips of the mountain ranges to avoid death, but only in vein. She couldn’t stand to see this. How could this have happened? As Popo ran outside with the communicator in his hand, she threw herself at him crying.
Nana: “Popo how could this happen to our world? These poor creatures!”
Popo: “I know Nana! It’s awful, but we gotta stay strong. I contacted Samus, she should be here any moment.”
They stood around watching the devastation of their homeland, grabbed their hammers and began to climb to the tip of Icicle Mountain. The climb was treacherous, even for the experienced climbers. As they reached the top, they discovered a small group of topis and a polar bear huddled in fear. Nana ran over to them to comfort them as Popo shaded his eyes for any sight of Samus’ Ship. Within minutes, the familiar spacecraft descended into orbit. It landed on top of Icicle mountain near Nana and Popo. The topis and polar bear began to cower in its presence. They had never seen anything so alien in their life. The ramp lowered and Samus Aran walked down it. She was different than when the Ice Climbers had last seen her. She was not wearing her power suit.
Samus: “Whew, glad I made it in plenty of time,”
Nana: “Great to see you Samus! Wish it were under better circumstances.”
Popo: “Yeah um……by the way…..where’s your suit…its…uh….”
Popo began to stare at Samus in her Zero Suit. He began to whistle so low that surely noone would hear him. He was wrong. Before he could look around Nana had walked up to him and smacked him across the head. As he lay on the snow holding his now aching head, Samus began to laugh as she turned on a hand held scanner.
Samus: “Don’t worry about it , Nana. I get that all the time, which is why I normally wear my powersuit. It gets kind of embarrassing.”
Nana: “Well he shouldn’t have done it!”
Samus: “Wow, judging by your reaction….wait….are you two “together”? Cause I heard somewhere that you guys were brother and sister? So, which is it anyway?”
Nana: “I…um….uh…”
Suddenly, Samus’ scanner went berserk. It began flashing and beeping madly. Samus looked down at it as Nana and Popo, who had just got up from the ground, ran over to see.
Popo: “So…what does that mean?”
Samus: “That’s not good. It’s picking up an extremely powerful energy reading about 2 miles away from here. It must be residual from the impact zone that’s causing all this chaos around here. WAIT…it’s picking up something else. That’s weird! The air has kept some fragments of energy as if a trail. It’s that same energy at the crash site, but I’m seeing some other wave. It’s similar to the metroids I saw back……NO it can’t be. He’s supposed to be dead. I killed him!”
Nana: “Who do you think it is”
Samus: “I hope I’m wrong, but the energy is similar to a foe I battled awhile back. He’s a space dragon named Ridley. You don’t mind if we stop back by my home planet before we go anywhere else do you? I have to know.”
Popo: “Sure thing, but can we leave now? That lava is practically at the top now.”
Samus nodded as she rushed towards her ship. Nana motioned for the 3 topis and polar bear to follow them as they entered samus’s ship. After the last topi boarded the ship, Samus raised the ramp and lifted the landing gear. They blasted off into space just before the lava had completely covered their planet. The Icicle planet had been destroyed.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Laughing to himself, The Black Shadow installed the final piece of his machine. The final step in achieving his goal was to test the new machine. He observed his work before lifting the shot gun-like machine over his shoulder and heading out to the alleyway. As he made is way out into the streets, he saw several cars and objects on which to test his invention. He flipped a few switches, took aim, and fired a red blast of energy at a passing vehicle. Upon contact the car instantly exploded leaving no remnant behind. As this sight, he shouted with glee and began to blast everything in site, from people to buildings. The power of his machine had driven him to the pinnacle of insanity. The ruckus caused several nearby police to appear around him.
Police: “Black Shadow! Place the gun down and your hands up. We have you surrounded.”
Black Shadow: “Not this time…noone will stop me now!”
He jumped into the air and flipped a few switches. This setting gave the weapon the ability to fire rapid shots. He began blasting away at the barrage around him. As the dust settled he ran down the street hoisting the large weapon over his shoulder.
Black Shadow: “Master…if you can hear me, I need your help.”
Nothing happened, he continued to plead for his master as he turned around the corner. To Black Shadow’s surprise, Captain Falcon stood in his path. As Falcon began to rush towards him with his fists held high, Shadow began to glow with a black aura.
Destroyer: “My servant, I have heard your plea. I grant you some of the powers that were given to me.”
The Black Shadow rose into the sky and began pulsing energy through his body. Captain Falcon came to a stop below him.
Falcon: “How come I knew this would be you? Couldn’t leave things alone could you? You just had to get revenge on me.”
Black Shadow: “Very astute, you surprise me Falcon. Prepare to DIE!”
Falcon – “We’ll see about that. FALCON…”
Captain Falcon had jumped into the air as he began his falcon punch attack. But this time, Black Shadow had something up his sleeve. He blasted a ball of dark energy at Captain Falcon stopping his attack and sending him flying to the street below. Black Shadow lifted his weapon and began to pulverize nearby buildings and everything in site, finally turning to Captain Falcon.
Black Shadow: “So long have I waited to kill you, but now I feel a greater need. I must destroy this whole planet, and you with it!”
Instantly, the Black Shadow flew into the atmosphere. Captain Falcon looked around at the thousands of people cowering in corners. He must stop Black Shadow from destroying all these people, and destroying himself. The only way to stop him was to follow in him into space. Falcon ran through and alley way and jumped into the Blue Falcon. He sped across the city till he reached his residence. He used a remote control to open a secret passage way to the Falcon Flyer. He drove on down the long tunnel and on into the open ramp of the Flyer. He jumped out of his racer, closed the ramp and went on into the pilot’s seat. As he turned on the switches, he wondered if he could make it to defeat the Black Shadow in time. With this new power he shortly exhibited, the chance of winning this fight was growing slim. Falcon hit the ignition switch and blasted off into the sky after the Black Shadow
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Destroyer floated above the most peculiar of worlds in this galaxy. This was truly a world unlike all others. Why was this world not whole? This land, this Hyrule, had strong barriers in between its various regions. Why was Hyrule split into four? He landed on the green field of Hyrule and began to look around. He walked for quite awhile before coming to a barrier. Thinking this barrier as a simple annoyance, he teleported to the other side. Upon his teleportation, he arrived in another Hyrule Field. Confounded by the similarities yet differences of this world, he flew into the sky above the barriers for a better view. All the regions seemed to be in harmony, despite the evil presences in all four sections. With a stroke of genius, he gathered large amounts of dark energy and began to blast the barriers between the worlds. The Destroyer laughed as the walls began to crumble, for he knew the fastest way to destroy a world, was to create chaos. Intermingling of these regions would surely bring mass confusion.
The Destroyer then waved his hand above his head creating a temple of sorts above Hyrule. He landed on the ground within the newly created temple and began to concentrate. He concentrated on the evil energies residing in Hyrule. Suddenly, four portals began to shine within the temple as four figured stepped out of them. One was a tall dark man in armor with a long flowing cape. Another was a tall dark man with a beard, a robe and two swords. The third was a tall dark man with a bright glow in his chest. The last was the odd one of the group. He was the size of a boy with tribal clothing and a strange mask upon his face.
Destroyer; “Ah, Ganondorf of Time, Ganondorf of the Seas, Ganondorf of the Twilight Realm, and the Skull Kid. Glad you could join me.”
GT: “This is peculiar.”
GS: “Why did you summon us here?”
GTR: “Who the hell are you?”
Destroyer: “In due time. Here take a seat. Your world has intreagued me so. The power I see within each of you. Tell me of each of your lands.
The three Ganondorfs and the Skull Kid sat down and began to converse of the stories of Hyrule from Ganondorf of Time’s reign, to Ganondorf of the Seas’s hidden kingdom beneath the sea, to Ganondorf of the Twilight Realm’s knowledge and powers, to Majora’s Mask.
Destroyer: “Very interesting. I’m sure you are still wondering why you are here. I have seen great strength in each of you. I am here to extend an invitation. Join me, and I will grant you more power. Serve under me, and I shall protect you.”
GTR: “I will not be a servant to any!”
GT: “I am the bearer of the Triforce of Power! You cannot match my strength.”
GS: “You bring us here to waste our time for servitude? I THINK NOT”
Skull Kid began to tremble as the mood in the room quickly changed to hostility. He backed into a corner and vanished back to Hyrule as the three Ganondorfs stood beside each other preparing to fight.
The Destroyer: “Very well, if you shall not serve, then you all shall die!”
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fox was growing restless floating around in space with the Pokemon crew. He kept rolling the two pokeballs around in his hand.
Blue: “Mewtwo are we anywhere close yet?”
Pikachu: “Yeah it’s been HOURS and all we’ve seen is that moon.”
Mewtwo: “We’re getting close. See that right beside us, that’s Captain Falcon’s planet. The Mushroom Kingdom isn’t far from there.”
Jigglypuff – “That’s good cause I have to go to the bathroom.”
Lucario: “So, Fox, Tell me more about the energy you felt from this Destroyer. It sounds to me a lot like Aura.”
Fox: “From what I’ve heard from you it IS a lot like aura, But you say your attacks are light, his were dark. It was such a power that even those who aren’t sensitive to it, like me, can feel it.”
Lucario stood up quickly and began to look at Captain Falcon’s Planet. Mew and Mewtwo stopped. The others began to look in the direction that Lucario was pointing. His eyes turned yellow and he began to scan the planet.”
Lucario: “Something’s coming. It’s fast, and very powerful”
Suddenly, the Black Shadow came into focus. He was heading straight for them. Mewtwo used his powers to pull everyone out of the way before being struck by the flying man. The Black Shadow stopped and looked at the group.
Black Shadow: “More victims! You shall die along with Falcon and the whole planet!”
The power of his machine and the power that the Destroyer had given him was too much. He had gone insane. Black Shadow flipped on his weapon and began to rapidly fire at Mewtwo and the companions. Reacting quickly, Mewtwo used his powers to pull several nearby comets towards their attacker. As they flew towards The Black Shadow, he blasted them into several pieces. They plummeted towards the heroes, but Mew stopped them with it’s psychic powers. Finally there were platforms for the fighters to stand on. Fox pulled out his blaster and began to shoot at the Black Shadow. Mewtwo sent Shadow Balls flying as Pikachu and pichu shot thunderbolts at him. Jigglypuff charged her rollout attack and awaited instruction when to release it.
Blue: “Charizard, Ivysaur, Squirtle, Get out here and help!”
Fox: “Everyone, this guy is showing the same powers as The Destroyer”
Mewtwo: “Latios, Latias! Go back to our planet and warn the others! They need you more than we do!”
Latios and Latias revealed themselves and sped off back in the direction of the pokemon planet. Lucario took charge by charging towards the Black shadow. Dodging his bullets, Lucario managed to land an uppercut on the foe. Pummeling him into a nearby meteor, Lucario rushed back to his companions, while charging an aura sphere. Suddenly from behind them, the Falcon Flyer appeared.
Captain Falcon: “Fox, Mewtwo, Pikachu, Jigglypuff?? What are you doing here? Thanks for helping me out. Something strange is going on.”
Fox: “No time to talk, we have a mad man on our hands!”
Black Shadow: “YOU! HOW DARE YOU! I WILL KILL YOU ALL”
The Black Shadow reached his hand towards their planet. Suddenly mass amounts of metal appeared around him. He sent a shockwave of energy from him into the metal. Slowly, small robots began to form from the metal. It was an entire army of robots.
Black Shadow: “ATTACK!”
The swarm of robots descended upon the group. Lucario sent aura sphere’s flying everywhere while protecting jigglypuff who was still waiting to use her rollout. Pikachu began to run around using thunderbolts and Thunder to defeat enemies. Charizard was destroying a group to the left with a Fire Blast, while Squirtle and Ivysaur attacked any robot who got near Blue. Fox Jumped from Comet fragment to comet fragment blasting robots and using his Fire Fox to incinerate a few more. Mewtwo laughed as he used his psychic abilities to utterly crush waves of robots at a time.
At the same time, Captain Falcon chose a different target, Black Shadow. He ran his flyer straight towards the Black shadow. Falcon began to shoot lasers at Black Shadow, but all were deflected. As Lucario finished the last robot, the Black Shadow’s anger was increased.
Black Shadow: “You have slipped by your fate too long. My vengeance will be complete!”
Fox: “Give it up horn head!”
Black Shadow: “NEVER”
He pushed a few buttons on the machine and shot a gigantic blast of energy towards the Falcon Flyer. Captain Falcon swerved quicky and only barely missed the bullet, but the shot still hit one of it’s targets. It plummeted towards the surface of their planet. And within moments, the entire planet had been reduced to powder. His anger now high, Captain Falcon began to shoot uncontrollably at the Black Shadow. The Pokemon and Fox too descended upon Black Shadow, but the power he had been given was too much. Black Shadow dodged every thing the heroes could send his way. With one shockwave, Black Shadow sent everyone flying away. His dreams had come true. Now was the time to test his weapon’s true purpose. He flipped open a section of the machine and hit a large red button. Instantly, a large purple blast shot from the end of the gun. Before the others could react, it created a rip in the galaxy.
Black Shadow: “Finally! A portal to the other worlds has appeared! I shall call upon the power of this new realm, and I shall rule this one! MUAHAHAHA!”
Blue: “I don’t think so, Jigglypuff..NOW!!!!”
Jigglypuff who had earlier been idle was now shooting at high speed towards the unaware Black Shadow. She hit him directly in the back and sent him flying towards the rip. The force of her blow made him loose grip of his weapon. Mewtwo seeing this opportunity shot a Shadow ball towards the machine breaking it into small pieces. As the Black Shadow was speeding towards the rip, He began to feel sharp pain. Electric pulses shot through his body as he was slowly being devoured by the rip. Black Shadow screamed in agony as the force of the rip tore his limbs from his torso. As they were torn, they disappeared into the air. His body too began to disappear till he had vanished.
Falcon and the others watched Black Shadow be ripped in to the darkness. In fear, they stared at the open hole in space and time. Suddenly The rip began to glow. A distant rumble was heard, then suddenly, three balls of light spewed from the rip at unimaginable speeds. Barely avoiding the balls, the crew turned to watch as they flew in different directions.
Pikachu : “What were those things?”
Fox: “I have no clue. Lucario, can you track them with your aura?”
Lucario: “They are beyond my abilities at this point. I’m sorry.”
Mewtwo: “Don’t be sorry, you did all you could do. Falcon, we need to board your ship for awhile. I’m sure everyone needs a rest.”
Falcon: “Sure thing climb on in, but I gotta go take a shower! Any of you men care to join me?”
Blue: “Did he just say what I think he said?”
Jigglypuff: “Oh no…here we go again…Mr. Macho.”
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Slippy began to spring into action as the Great Fox was approaching the Mushroom Kingdom.
Peppy: “Here we are, The Mushroom Kingdom. Home of Mario, Luigi, and all the rest of the gang.”
Slippy: “It’s about time old man. We’ve got a lot on our hands.”
Suddenly an alarm began to sound. Kirby began to panic, but Peppy stayed calm.
Peppy: “Well shoot, Slippy! Didn’t we fuel up before we left earlier?”
Slippy: “Um yes? ALRIGHT I forgot it.”
Peppy: “Well looks like we’re gonna have to land, and soon.”
MK: Look at that set of islands down there. I’m sure you could land on the large one. We can find fuel here surely.”
Peppy began to steer the Great Fox towards the largest island of the grouping. They were not that far from the main land. Half was a dense forrest, but the other half was wide open. Peppy landed the Great Fox in the middle of the clearing and lowered the ramp.
Slippy: “Ok Peppy, you stay here with the ship and the waddle dee’s. Kirby, Metaknight and I will get out and search for Mario and some fuel.”
DDD: “I’m coming too!”
They turned around to see King Dedede standing with his mallet over his shoulder. He had a very determined look on his face. Metaknight and Kirby knew this look and did not argue the fact. Slippy grabbed his vest and a couple blasters and began to head down the ramp with his three companions following. When they reached the grass, Peppy raised the ramp once more. They began to walk into the Jungle towards the main land. Perhaps there would be a bridge, or some form of boat there to take them to shore. They walked for several minutes till they found a small clearing.
DDD: “Can we take a break for a moment? My feet are getting tired”
Kirby: “You said you wanted to go on this journey, did you think it would be a quick three minute trip?”
MK: “Did you hear that?”
Slippy: “What?”
Before Metaknight could answer, hundreds of spears were aimed their direction. One by one Yoshi heads began to pop up from behind them. Above them in the trees, Yoshi’s began to emerge with bow and arrows. Metaknight sheathed his sword and began to look around. They were surrounded. All of a suddedn, a horn blew and a rustling of leaves could be heard. The sound increased until they saw a large Yoshi being carried by smaller of the kind. He was wearing a golden crown and a cape. Following behind him was a blue Yoshi with sunglasses.
King Yoshi: “I am King Yoshi. I am leader of the tribe of Yoshi. You have trespassed on our land!”
Slippy: “NO please let me explain”
King Yoshi: “SILENCE! Boshi, have your men tie them up. They will be burned for their trechary on our sacred lands.”
Boshi: “Sure thing sire! You heard him boys, Tie em up!”
Several Yoshi’s jumped from the trees and bound the four of them. They tied them to long poles and began to carry them off.
Kirby: “ Well this is great, JUST GREAT.”
Nana watched as the lava rose round them. The few plants that scattered across their world were being destroyed. Polar bears and Topis were running to the tips of the mountain ranges to avoid death, but only in vein. She couldn’t stand to see this. How could this have happened? As Popo ran outside with the communicator in his hand, she threw herself at him crying.

He observed his work before lifting the shot gun-like machine over his shoulder and heading out to the alleyway. As he made is way out into the streets, he saw several cars and objects on which to test his invention. He flipped a few switches, took aim, and fired a red blast of energy at a passing vehicle.

The Black Shadow reached his hand towards their planet. Suddenly mass amounts of metal appeared around him. He sent a shockwave of energy from him into the metal. Slowly, small robots began to form from the metal. It was an entire army of robots.
Black Shadow: “ATTACK!”
The swarm of robots descended upon the group. Lucario sent aura sphere’s flying everywhere while protecting jigglypuff who was still waiting to use her rollout. Pikachu began to run around using thunderbolts and Thunder to defeat enemies. Charizard was destroying a group to the left with a Fire Blast, while Squirtle and Ivysaur attacked any robot who got near Blue. Fox Jumped from Comet fragment to comet fragment blasting robots and using his Fire Fox to incinerate a few more. Mewtwo laughed as he used his psychic abilities to utterly crush waves of robots at a time.
At the same time, Captain Falcon chose a different target, Black Shadow. He ran his flyer straight towards the Black shadow. Falcon began to shoot lasers at Black Shadow, but all were deflected. As Lucario finished the last robot, the Black Shadow’s anger was increased.
Black Shadow: “You have slipped by your fate too long. My vengeance will be complete!”
Fox: “Give it up horn head!”
Black Shadow: “NEVER”
He pushed a few buttons on the machine and shot a gigantic blast of energy towards the Falcon Flyer. Captain Falcon swerved quicky and only barely missed the bullet, but the shot still hit one of it’s targets. It plummeted towards the surface of their planet. And within moments, the entire planet had been reduced to powder. His anger now high, Captain Falcon began to shoot uncontrollably at the Black Shadow. The Pokemon and Fox too descended upon Black Shadow, but the power he had been given was too much. Black Shadow dodged every thing the heroes could send his way. With one shockwave, Black Shadow sent everyone flying away. His dreams had come true. Now was the time to test his weapon’s true purpose. He flipped open a section of the machine and hit a large red button. Instantly, a large purple blast shot from the end of the gun. Before the others could react, it created a rip in the galaxy.
Black Shadow: “Finally! A portal to the other worlds has appeared! I shall call upon the power of this new realm, and I shall rule this one! MUAHAHAHA!”
Blue: “I don’t think so, Jigglypuff..NOW!!!!”
Jigglypuff who had earlier been idle was now shooting at high speed towards the unaware Black Shadow. She hit him directly in the back and sent him flying towards the rip. The force of her blow made him loose grip of his weapon. Mewtwo seeing this opportunity shot a Shadow ball towards the machine breaking it into small pieces. As the Black Shadow was speeding towards the rip, He began to feel sharp pain. Electric pulses shot through his body as he was slowly being devoured by the rip. Black Shadow screamed in agony as the force of the rip tore his limbs from his torso. As they were torn, they disappeared into the air. His body too began to disappear till he had vanished.
Falcon and the others watched Black Shadow be ripped in to the darkness. In fear, they stared at the open hole in space and time. Suddenly The rip began to glow. A distant rumble was heard, then suddenly, three balls of light spewed from the rip at unimaginable speeds. Barely avoiding the balls, the crew turned to watch as they flew in different directions.
Pikachu : “What were those things?”
Fox: “I have no clue. Lucario, can you track them with your aura?”
Lucario: “They are beyond my abilities at this point. I’m sorry.”
Mewtwo: “Don’t be sorry, you did all you could do. Falcon, we need to board your ship for awhile. I’m sure everyone needs a rest.”
Falcon: “Sure thing climb on in, but I gotta go take a shower! Any of you men care to join me?”
Blue: “Did he just say what I think he said?”
Jigglypuff: “Oh no…here we go again…Mr. Macho.”

Slippy began to spring into action as the Great Fox was approaching the Mushroom Kingdom.
Peppy: “Here we are, The Mushroom Kingdom. Home of Mario, Luigi, and all the rest of the gang.”
Slippy: “It’s about time old man. We’ve got a lot on our hands.”
Suddenly an alarm began to sound. Kirby began to panic, but Peppy stayed calm.
Peppy: “Well shoot, Slippy! Didn’t we fuel up before we left earlier?”
Slippy: “Um yes? ALRIGHT I forgot it.”
Peppy: “Well looks like we’re gonna have to land, and soon.”
MK: Look at that set of islands down there. I’m sure you could land on the large one. We can find fuel here surely.”
Peppy began to steer the Great Fox towards the largest island of the grouping. They were not that far from the main land. Half was a dense forrest, but the other half was wide open. Peppy landed the Great Fox in the middle of the clearing and lowered the ramp.
Slippy: “Ok Peppy, you stay here with the ship and the waddle dee’s. Kirby, Metaknight and I will get out and search for Mario and some fuel.”
DDD: “I’m coming too!”
They turned around to see King Dedede standing with his mallet over his shoulder. He had a very determined look on his face. Metaknight and Kirby knew this look and did not argue the fact. Slippy grabbed his vest and a couple blasters and began to head down the ramp with his three companions following. When they reached the grass, Peppy raised the ramp once more. They began to walk into the Jungle towards the main land. Perhaps there would be a bridge, or some form of boat there to take them to shore. They walked for several minutes till they found a small clearing.
DDD: “Can we take a break for a moment? My feet are getting tired”
Kirby: “You said you wanted to go on this journey, did you think it would be a quick three minute trip?”
MK: “Did you hear that?”
Slippy: “What?”
Before Metaknight could answer, hundreds of spears were aimed their direction. One by one Yoshi heads began to pop up from behind them. Above them in the trees, Yoshi’s began to emerge with bow and arrows. Metaknight sheathed his sword and began to look around. They were surrounded. All of a suddedn, a horn blew and a rustling of leaves could be heard. The sound increased until they saw a large Yoshi being carried by smaller of the kind. He was wearing a golden crown and a cape. Following behind him was a blue Yoshi with sunglasses.
King Yoshi: “I am King Yoshi. I am leader of the tribe of Yoshi. You have trespassed on our land!”
Slippy: “NO please let me explain”
King Yoshi: “SILENCE! Boshi, have your men tie them up. They will be burned for their trechary on our sacred lands.”
Boshi: “Sure thing sire! You heard him boys, Tie em up!”
Several Yoshi’s jumped from the trees and bound the four of them. They tied them to long poles and began to carry them off.
Kirby: “ Well this is great, JUST GREAT.”
