Chapter 5: Eclipse of Sin

[Allard, Trinity]
[Near Hyrule fields]

Allard looked away from Brenda, his gaze locking instead on the monolith he'd been staring at earlier. Politely, he declined the fish, and stood up abruptly.

"Thank you for the fish, Brenda." He said quietly to her. "But I really must be going." He shuffled until his small backpack was in place perfectly square on his back, then began to walk away, tripping once over an unseen rock, then picking himself up and continuing on his way, ignoring her question completely. He didn't intendo on telling the woman where he was from, but he figured someone like her surely had someplace to go; with a bit of luck, she would take the small child out of nothing more than pity.

Although it could turn out like the last time he pulled this trick, with him forced to kill two hunting dogs to escape slave traders that wanted to sell him off.

"10,000 volts of...?" Dobs raised his palm to his face and shook his head back and forth. "That was just...terrible... the pun can only be taken too far."

Dobs peered down the hallway of Fallen Angel Castle at a nearly endless swarm of Hell's demons, "May I say," said Dobs, more to himself than anyone else, "that this may be the biggest clusterfuck of a battle that I have ever had the honor of partaking in. That being said, let's get behind these guys, Toran?"

The bounty hunter's mechanical companion nodded in understanding and extended his right arm for Dobs to grab a hold of. Dobs clutched Toran's long, sharp metal fingers with some difficulty, being careful not to cut himself. "Ready?" the humanoid mech asked.

Dobs checked to make sure he was secure and opened his mouth to speak, "Could you wait just one s-" however, his voice was downed out by the high pitched charging sound made by Toran's thrusters. The two engine's in the droid's feet ignited for a moment and the two were flung violently down the hallway in a mangled mess of metal and flesh. Dobs landed with a resounding thud at the other end of the hall, rolling a bit to break his fall. Meanwhile Toran activated reverse thrusters and gently came to a halt on the pavement.

Dobs cracked his neck and stood up, "Thanks for that," his face was covered in gravel, his hair pushed to one side, "great communication."

"You're welcome," replied Toran, obviously not picking up on the heaping mounds of sarcasm in Dobs' remark. "Ready?" he asked as the barrels of his plasma cannon began to spin rapidly.

"Does my answer really matter?" asked Dobs, "I'll run in you co-"

Dobs voice was drowned out yet again, this time by heavy gunfire from his robot companion. He sighed to himself and ran forwards into the throng of enemies, with the space to move freely across the battlefield.

{Fallen Angel Castle, Hell}
the night before
It wasnt very long after, our two heroes have returned from there encounter from an mysterious new enemy, one they will not forget for a long time. The ship was set to auto pilot as Kin and Snake were resting, A few minutes ago snake had another episode of Foxdie.... "Everytime i use the cyringe, it works less and less, Snake I will find a cure for your sickness." Kin said looking over at his friend and mentor. Snake had a blank expression on him as he looked out of the window, lifeless, the man knew he was on his deathbed..but he diddnt know when his time would finally arrive. Snake slowly shifted his head over, his eyes were weak as he was weary from the night. "Ill fight to my very last breath to save you, I will lead this war and end it with my Fist!" Kin said. "I know you can fight. But, it's our wits that make us men." Snake quietly said as his voice was getting weaker. "Every man dies. Not every man lives." Snake said. Kin sat there quietly, Snake passed out to a deep sleep.

[Present time]

Kin awoke to a familiar location, a vast wasteland of mountains and magma, and bright orange red colors surrounded him, he felt like he was on a distant planet again. Snake was already up, and the ship had landed also. Kin stretched his body and cracked his joints to relieve the stress.
The hatch was open and Snake was not around. "Wonder what got into him?" Kin said to himself, and a few moments later Kin was outside the ship, and they were on a cliff overlooking....

"The SSS, are here!" Kin shouted as he ran to look at the veiw.

[eiron]

[Black Knight]
{Fallen Angel Castel, Hell}

The shock of the Black Knights betrayal had finally worn off, replaced swiftly with rage. With a deafening roar, the demons rose into the air, cresting like a mangled, writhing wave of fangs and horns, and plummeted down upon the lone warrior. But like a wave crashing against the shore they were repelled, brilliant blue fire streaking from the Black Knight’s blade into their ranks. The beast’s wrath mounted with each assault, and they renewed their efforts, each attack more savage than the last, but the Knight’s blessed armor repelled each assault, his holy sword cut down all in his path. But though he had no equal in the mass of rabble that assailed him, their numbers were too great. Several times he was nearly overcome, swallowed whole by the gargantuan wave of Hell Spawn, each escape more desperate than the last.

At last, he fell back, allowing the swarm to push him further and further towards the keep, drawing them into the massive arched doorway that led to the tower. The huge throng of demons tightened into the considerably smaller space, their bodies pressed tightly against each other as they tried to claw their way passed the traitorous general and reach their true targets: The Super Smash Saviors.

Farther and farther the Black Knight led them into the cramped passageway, compressing their numbers and funneling their flow into his dancing blade. Finally, the horde in its entirety entered the passage. The smarter (though significantly less numerous) demons from the Great Hall recognized the trap and remained outside, their shouts of warning completely drowned by their companions’ vengeful roars.

Finally, the Black Knight stopped his retreat, and for the first time, spoke directly to his opponents.

“Die.”

With a ringing flash of steel that blinded all who beheld it, the Black Knight unleashed a withering blast of azure flames through the narrow walls of the passage, obliterating the support columns. A massive tremor shook the castle as the roof caved in on the trapped demons. The roar of stone drowned the roar of beasts until finally, slowly, no sound at all remained. A billowing cloud of dust rose over the castle, swelling at the base of the keep. With his crimson cape swirling behind him, the Black Knight emerged, casually knocking a speck of rubble from his armor.

“Hah…” he laughed gently, staring up at the tower. “Dust to dust.” And then in a blaze of light, he was gone.

[Mewtwo]
{Hyrule Castle Town}

“Who are you?” asked the more bestial of the humans. The gloom of the night was not great enough to mask their features, though Mewtwo hardly required the use of his eyes. As he gently touched down upon the rooftop, he expanded his consciousness, taking in his surroundings. There was violence nestled in the heart of the youth who spoke, and a thirst to prove himself. But the chains of camaraderie bound him to his companion, as did the thrill of adventure. His vague sense of prescience nudged Mewtwo onward, and he answered the question.

“A stranger,” he said bluntly, “neither friend nor foe. Who are you that would dare the Dark Lord’s wrath by straying into this Castle Town?”

[Ganondorf, Bowser, Crehavos]
{-Throne Room-Fallen Angel Castle, Hell}

“I seek to end it.”

The words hadn’t even finished leaving Crehavos’ mouth when Ganondorf lunged. He burst into the rising sunlight, its bitter red glow turning his face into a smear of gray as he hurled through the air. With a mighty roar, he brought his wicked blade down on Crehavos-who looked as if he could not possibly respond in time to this lightning assault, his arms outstretched against the glowering sun.

But then Hell’s Terror was in his hand and there was a terrible clash of steel, and the Hell Lord effortlessly repelled the Thief King. The force of the counter shot Ganon straight back to the marble floor, but he landed with catlike grace that was disquieting to behold in tandem with his bulk. But Crehavos gave him no chance to recover and renewed his assault. From his lofty position he extended his left hand and pointed at Ganondorf, and a narrow beam of violet energy lashed outwards from his fingers. Ganon whirled to the side, losing a small portion of his cape as he did so.

Sensing it before he saw it, Crehavos raised his beam and severed the column Bowser had hurled at him in two. With an effortless flick of his wrist, he turned his Fissure Slash technique on Bowser, who was not nearly as nimble as Ganondorf. But then Crehavos was surrounded by dark figures, cloaked in shadows and brandishing swords that swallowed the light. Two quick sword slashes reduced the Phantom Ganons to puffs of dark smoke, but more instantly appeared to take their place. Crehavos slashed and swirled, but the Phantoms moved in tandem this time, their many slower blades acting in concert to match his faster, more powerful swordplay.

Suddenly Bowser was behind Crehavos, his approached masked by the Phantoms. His incredible strength overcame the confines of gravity and cast him skyward towards his prey, occupied with Ganon’s puppet warriors. In an instant the Hell Lord was in his grasp, and Bowser somersaulted with comic grace through the air, and then straight down towards the floor. At the last second, Crehavos freed himself from the Koopa’s iron grip and righted himself under the beast. His feet hit the ground with incredible force, sending waves of cracks racing across the floor. He held his arms straight up, pushing against the massive weight of Bowser’s Flying Tackle. Bowser roared in rage at shock at the realization that he was now being held like a rag doll, but he was instantly awash in darkness. The Phantoms descended upon Crehavos, whose arms were occupied with the overweight turtle above him. Hurling Bowser at the real Ganondorf, Crehavos drew his blade and met the slashing circle of dark swords.

Ganondorf dodged to the side as Bowser slammed unceremoniously into the ground next to him, having been turned into a living projectile several times now throughout the battle. With a groan, the Koopa Kind stood and turned to his ally. Ganon was somewhat surprised to see that the blind rage had disappeared, replaced almost by a sad, compassionate look. He knew Bowser realized now that they had no real hope of victory. That he and Ganon were merely the sacrificial lambs that would hold the savage wolf long enough for those who could truly defeat him. But if anything, this hardened him, made him infinitely fiercer. His death would not be in vain, no, his Peach would be safe because of him.

Ganondorf smiled grimly. He had felt deep down in his black heart that Bowser would stay, would not fail before the utter realization of the battle’s hopeless outcome. He had understood that Bowser’s ludicrous love for Princess Toadstool would keep him by his side, make him incapable of retreating. Then, slowly, his smile faded. Much as he sneered at the Koopa King, he too was chained here to this battle. As the red light of Hell rose higher into the sky, his thoughts returned to Hyrule. For an instant, he could feel its warm light against his face, its cool wind in his hair. A mirthless laugh rose to his throat, and he couldn’t help but chuckle at the sick irony. To think that he, Ganondorf, the King of Evil, was going to die because he loved something.

But he was different than Bowser. More base, viler, crueler. Selfish and conceited. Bowser was content with his noble sacrifice, of dying ever so bravely for his princess. But not Ganondorf. No, even the best of Ganon was twisted and foul. If he could not have Hyrule, then no one could. The SSS could not have it back. Crehavos could not take it from him. He had set the Legions of Hell against the Saviors and assailed the Hell Lord simultaneously, knowing each action crippled the other. Either Crehavos and the SSS died side by side, or they all died together.

But now, with Crehavos momentarily occupied by his Phantoms, too much understanding gleamed in Bowser’s eyes. Bowser was a fool, he had effortlessly been manipulated into joining Ganon in his vain effort to stop Crehavos. But now, at the very end, he had surpassed Ganon. He saw through the lies and deception, felt compassion for the man they now faced, felt his pain, and was still willing to lay down his life to save the one he loved. When all was swallowed by darkness, it was Bowser who remained shining. Ganon felt the slight urge to vomit.

“You should go.” Bowser growled. “Fix this mess you’ve started.” He turned back to Crehavos, who had dispersed the Phantoms. “I will hold him.” He began to slowly lumber away, leaving Ganon rooted to the spot, hatred welling inside him like a great black cloud. Bowser spoke again, not looking back. “Bring the Super Smash Saviors here. Or I will kill you.”

Ganodorf’s eyes drilled into Bowser’s back, every inch of him screaming out for the wretched turtle’s murder. With Herculean effort, he turned on his heels, and walked calmly out the door.

[Eiron, Snicket, Dobs, Toran, SSS members]
{Fallen Angel Castle, Hell}

Eiron’s exasperated amusement at Dark Pichu evaporated into stunned horror as the tiny creature simultaneously rendered three Brawlers unconscious. He could not help but watch incredulously (forgetting the far more menacing Dark Link completely) as Snicket and his companions rose to the occasion magnificently, working seamlessly to bring Dark Pichu’s short lived reign of terror to an abrupt and sizzling hot end. However, the resulting stream of puns returned Eiron to a state of exasperated amusement almost immediately. Captain Falcon though, naturally was quite pleased with everyone. Pleased as punch, perhaps, thought Eiron, hating himself as he formed the words in his mind.

Dobs and Toran rocketed across the hallway behind the enemies that stood in their way, and Sour rushed into battle with Dark Link. With the satanic bundle of evil energy formally known as Dark Pichu out of the picture, Eiron decided that the Hero of Time’s dark doppelganger warranted the most attention. He began to run to Sour’s assistance, but stopped almost immediately, having forgotten how miserable his lower body felt from his rhino riding escapade earlier. Not helped by Falcon’s howls of laughter, Eiron resolved instead to engage the enemy from afar, where less movement was required.

Sour and Dark Link swirled and danced around each other, blade and staff clashing again and again. The latter’s face was drawn in a tight sneer as he wove through the battle, enraged that his companion spy had fallen so quickly. As he raised his sword to strike at Sour, vines erupted around his feet, wrapping around his limbs and stifling the blow. Knocking Sour away with his shield, he began slashing wildly at the vegetation that Eiron had summoned there, courtesy of the wildly aggressive plant life of Tallon IV. Seizing the opportunity, Samus Aran leapt from the crowd of battling Brawlers and cast forth her Grapple Beam, snaring Dark Link’s sword arm in her grasp. The dark clone thrashed in rage, trying desperately to free himself. He tried to draw a bomb out from behind his back to hurl into the crowd, but the true Link jumped into the fray. Sliding out his Clawshot with lightning speed, he fired directly into Dark Link’s shield, latching firmly onto its surface.

Now, all of the doppleganger’s limbs were bound, and despite Link, Samus, and Eiron all working together, it was all they could do to keep him from wrestling himself free.

“Sour!” Eiron roared, desperately managing the many flailing vines that held Dark Link’s legs in place. “Hurry up and finish him!”

With a nod and an enthusiastic grin, Sour swung his staff as hard as he could. Following a sickening crack that made everyone present flinch, Savior and demon alike, Dark Link stopped struggling and sagged to the floor, unconscious.

A cheer erupted from the saviors, who surged forward. Emboldened by their success they swept towards the throne room. Dejected at the loss of yet another one of their leaders, the demons began to falter in their assault. Now only the strongest of their breed remained, those whose malice and strength were among the darkest in the Pit. They rallied together, forming one last barricade of blade and claw between the heroes and their foe.

But the effort proved to be pointless. Dark flames erupted through the demon’s ranks, searing and burning them as a single crimson sword flashed in the pale light. Overwhelmed, they broke and ran, tumbling out windows and taking to the air, leaving the hallway leading to the throne room empty-save for one man.

Ganondorf stood between the Saviors and their final destination, his hands red with the blood of the demons he had just slain. For a moment, Eiron did not recognize the fabled King of Evil. In fact, he at first mistook him for a large and violent statue, so hard and stony was his expression. He held perfectly still, his featured locked in an expression of utmost loathing, and Eiron realized that it was taking every ounce of his strength not to turn his blade onto them. At length, the Gerudo King spoke.

“We meet again, Super Smash Saviors. Crehavos…is waiting for you.”

Snicket raised an eyebrow when Ganondorf did not seem to make any move against them. For the past seven years, the Gerudo King had been under the employ--no, the service of Crehavos as one of his thirteen Forsworn commanders. And now, as malicious as he still seemed, he did not strike against his enemies despite what his personal inclinations might be. Then again, if one thought about it further, the Black Knight had been a commander, yet he had betrayed his master. And he hadn't seen several of the other commanders for some time, either--Arietta, Nemeck, Bowser, Evil Kin, Big Boss. Was there something else going on with Crehavos beyond universal conquest? All evidence was pointing to the affirmative.

The remainder of the demons having fled from Ganondorf's raw power, the way was now clear for the SSS to proceed.

"So, Ganondorf," Zelda said as the group of thirty or so heroes followed the supposed "King of Evil" up the next staircase. "Did you finally learn your lesson on serving a higher dark power? After all, this is not the first time you have joined forces with us."

The Gerudo growled, swirling around to face the Hylian princess as they walked, his cape swiveling with his movement. "I'm NOT joining forces with you, Super Smash Scum," he spat with a sharp rebuke. "And the Tabuu case was an isolated incident. I was only ever interested in my own gain when I supposedly committed myself to Master Hand. If it hadn't been for Tabuu, I would have overpowered any that stood in my way, either above or below me, I assure you."

They traversed the third floor and ascended to the next in silence, except for the constant padding of feet and hushed breathing. Outside the windows, Zel and his troops were chasing the last hordes of demons back toward the cracks from whence they came, or at least the ones which Ice Hand hadn't already sealed up. The moon, previously an eery green, now seemed to be deepening into a sickly crimson. Most of the architecture around them, wrought of dark stone, was admittedly of an impressive degree, but no one was really in the mood much to be admiring suits of armor or the velvet carpeting or the ornate torches on the walls.

"However," Ganondorf continued in a low, almost conspiratorial drone, "it is also true that the Emperor is in an extremely unstable state of mind. Bowser and I witnessed up there as he revealed his intentions of ending the world with a ritual called the 'Eclipse of Sin.' In just a few hours now, life in the Smash Universe will be obliterated forever, along with its distraught sovereign."

Bob's eyes widened. So that was it. Crehavos seemed to feel like life was no longer worth living, but heaven forbid he left a world happy and alive. No, to make his mark on the Smash Universe complete, he had to take it all with him. That was why his generals were not being quite as loyal to him as they had in the past--they knew what was going to happen. Snicket's hands clenched tighter on his Super Hammer. This reminded him very much of the story Yoshi had told him about Tabuu. It also reminded him of a very famous line spoken by Star Fox's arch enemy, Andross: "If I go down, I'm taking you with me!"

"So," Ganondorf said, "let's just say that I think Lord Crehavos is in lacking of...a successor. It seems the Smash Universe, including Hyrule, now that King Daphnes is dead, is in need of a new ruler." He laughed in that sinister way only Ganondorf can laugh.

Brawlers and Forumers alike gave worried, sidelong glances at one another, but there was nothing else to be said. Either they would go up there and defeat Crehavos together, or else they would go up there and die together at his hands. Either way, the SSS would go together.

As they climbed up the fourth, fifth, and then sixth story, Bob Snicket reflected on what he was about to lose with this last suicidal stand. His life, for starters. Potentially up to seventy or more years of it, too. So much time lost. So much opportunity wasted, irrevokably. His friends. Yoshi, although they were together, if they died, he did not know when he would see him again. Kin, Dobs, LGN, Eiron, Zel, his brothers in arms. Then a huge one hit. Never again would he have a chance to see Allison Reed, or try to become her friend. He began to tremble slightly during the climb. He had so much to lose! The list continued on in his mind. His writings, the most recent of which were stowed away in his cloak in his commonplace notebook, those concerning his adventures since the book signing. That would probably not last through this Eclipse of Sin, in all likelihood. And the rest of his work...it might never be published. In fact, it most likely wouldn't since he had it all hidden away under the tiles of the Quagmire Library basement, where it quite possibly might never be found.

The shaking grew worse, and his eyes were starting to water. Then there was the pain of death. Probably an extremely hot one, either the lava or however the Eclipse took place. Or possibly a death blow delivered by Crehavos himself. Either way, it would likely be quick, but nevertheless, it was not something for a sixteen-year-old to look forward to. And fear surrounded this whole situation. Fear for the things he would lose, fear for the suffering he would face, fear for the people he cared about, for the universe he cared about, fear for the ideals of the Super Smash Saviors which would be lost forever. Fear for death, fear for the unknown which followed it. There was so much fear. But there seemed to be no hope. Hope was what had always kept him going: hope for a better life, hope for success. But with the death of Sovaherc, all hope was gone, making this more or less a death march for these brave souls. Making it literally a fight to the death for all who remained outside this godforsaken castle. Making it the last few moments of precious life for every single organism and being outside Hell within this universe. How many Toads sat happy and unsuspecting in their homes, not knowing that the world was about to end? How many Cappies, Cornerians, Hylians, and every other species were out there, hoping that the noble, brave efforts of the Super Smash Saviors would succeed against Crehavos's tyranny?

Hope to die.

Suddenly, Yoshi tapped him on the shoulder, bringing him back to reality. "Bob, are you okay? You don't look good."

Shaking off the trembling, fighting back his tear wells, Snicket gave a grim smile. "I'm alright, my old, dear friend. Let's do this."

Then, a strange notion occurred to him, and he turned to Eiron, speaking before even thinking about what he was going to say. "You know, Eiron," he said, "you remind me more of myself than anyone else I've ever met."

As the writer said this, the Smashers slowed, approaching the great double doors leading into the throne room of Fallen Angel Castle.

[The Solid War Doctor]

[Zel]

The many demons of hell had very little skill in fighting compared to the men of the opposition. "Sir, the demons are in full retreat. What are your orders." Commander Cody asked.

"Shoot them in the back. I have no mercy for weaklings who retreat from the enemy. And Cody call for a transport ship. I will soon be joining the Squad in the Castle." Zel ordered.

Cody pushed his men onward. Then with a few pressed buttons a small flying transport just big enough for two men to pilot. Zel hopped in the captains seat and flew off. The scanners were picking up a large concentration of people near the top of the tower. Zel dropped the wind sheild and set the ship to idle. He stood in the seat and shot an energy ball at the window. From the outside it seemed to be a simple window breaking. But from the inside it seemed as if there was an earthquake. Zel jumped through the smoke and glass. Only to find weapons , claws and paws aimed at him.

"Come now put those down. Who do yall think I am a suicide bomber." Zel joked.

"It's alright everyone its just Zel." declared Mr. Bob Snicket.

"Thank you. I bring good news. The demons of hell are in full retreat." Zel stated.

[Rorschach]

[Trinity, Allard]
[Near hyrule]

As Kahmul began to leave, Trinity felt nervous. She needed a partner or someone she knew she could come back to.

"Wait, I don't want you to end up the same way you were before I came, I think its good I take you to the local inn," Trinity explained as Kahmul looked back listening to her. "Just come back with me and I will take you over to the nearest village."

Kahmul signalled for her to lead the way as she walked back over to the same waterfall she came from. marching further than where she came from, Trinity had no idea where she was taking Kahmul who didn't look worried. Trinity was lead into a beautiful field, assuming this was the famous "hyrule field". As Trinity seemed to be catching attention from the demons occupying the area, she began to sprint, not ready for a fight with such a young boy by his side. As Kahmul began running behind her, the duo crossed a bridge and ran through a linear path leading into a village. Trinity could only place Kahmul in a hotel, handing the landlord as much gold as she could comprised of what she had stolen from the demon aside from the sword.

As night began to fall, Kahmul began to fall to sleep and Trinity took this time to go out and find her light saber. She crept out of the village to be bombarded with arrows, barely dodging a shot to the face. Trinity pulled out her sword and looked around for the camping enemies. As she noticed small flames, she pulled each enemy off the cliff with her force, slowly but surely attaining what she thought was a victory. Trinity kept her guard up as she began creeping through the crowd until she noticed what she thought was a demon gang attempting to stir up trouble, each riding their own giant pig with a sword in their hands. The leader menacingly stared at Trinity speeding up to attack



. Trinity held her hand up as it charged energy forming a ball of electricity The pig was within range of impact until Trinity whipped the bomb to the floor causing the pig and its rider to fly into the air. When the rider hit the floor, she pointed her finger at it and sent a jolt of electricity at him, immobilizing him for a few minutes. The followers behind the immobilized leader paused for a moment, deciding between loyally fighting or saving themselves in a selfish, cowardly act of running away. Trinity decided to make the decision before them by screaming "C'MON COWARDS!" and rushing at them. She whipped her blade at a monster, blade piercing its chest. Then, she whips her arm from her blade to the next demon having the blade cut throught the first demon's chest and ending up sticking in the second monsters rib area. The third monster had enough and decided to run away but Trinity was expecting it and had already charged a bomb in her hand. She threw it up and pushed it with the force into the remaining monster. It had stuck to his back as he fell off his pig trying to reach for it until it blew up having exploded his body into pieces, blood splattered all over the area.

Trinity walked away leaving the famous field, expecting to be back with her light saber by morning.

[Sour, Eiron, Snicket, Dobs, Zel, Toran, SSS members, etc]
[fallen angel castle]

Sour stood in front of the doubledoors, along with many of the other brave soldiers and legendary warriors. He didn't know whether to be excited or terrified. This was the greatest day of his life but also could have been the last day.

Sour walked over to Eiron who didn't look busy. He tapped his should and as Eiron turned around, Sour only said to him "Good look my friend, this may be our last day." and walked away. Sour then walked to the front of the door and turned around, seeing all SSS members and Nintendo characters in front of him.

"m...MAY I HAVE A MINUTE!" Sour shouted out loud.

The crowd quieted down and paid attention to him.

"Usually its Zel who does the speeches but right now we have no time to waste!" Sour explained. "I only want to say I feel humbled for even being in the presence of all of you! Legendary heroes, SSS commanders, Friends and/or family! I could only dream of being with all of you but this is no dream! This is probably our last day! Our last day with our comrades! Our last day with whatever friends we have! Our last day maybe even with each other! We are all legends for some sort of reason from saving the princesses to Flying waffles! But I can only say that today is not the day we die! It is THE DAY WE BOUND OUR NAME INTO THE BOOK OF LEGENDS AND SAVE THE UNIVERSE!!!

The crowd roared,excited from the speech given by Sour, prepared and pumped, ready for action. Sour walked by snicket who he had seen since he ran into Eiron. This was his probably his last chance to even have a word with the summoner of flying waffles. He only attempted to get a handshake by sticking out his hand and saying "are you ready to bind your name?"

OOC: if anybody has a problem with this, i'll fix it up!

[Big Boss]

[Evil Kin, Crehavos]
{Castle throne room}

The broken wall had given the silver serpent the accessibility to do one last thing to his Master, Crehavos. Looking down from above, His red serpent eyes pierced the darkness of the tall ceiling to the opening. "What do you want serpent?..don't you have a battle to fight?" Crehavos said not even moving his head, remaining in an emotionless stare at his door. A weapon dropped from above, it landed with a ping! as wood and metal landed in from of the almighty hell lords feet. "I fight my own battles, consider me out of this." Evil Kin said. Crehavos didn't care. "It dosent matter what you do, for everything will be destroyed, gone without a trace." Crehavos coldly spoke. "Ill see you around" Evil Kin said, and vanished.

Evil Kin always had a look of disgust to the man he served. But when he looked back at it, all there was, was a self centered sense of pity, and longing. Did they really hate each other? or was there a feeling of mutual rivalry..this will be one answer I will never know. That was the last time that the two colossi of evil and scorn ever met. That was there last serenade. The serpent stared into the range horizon on top of the fallen angel castle, his black and red hair flowing in the wind, His bare chest glowed in the light. He snapped his fingers and created a golden glass, filled with red wine. "Cheers to you Kin!, our last hours await!" he drank the wine and slammed the glass on the roof tiles. Shattering in golden dust.

[Kin, Snake]

"Do you see anything?" Kin asked snake, who was holding his trusty pair of binoculars given to him in his first mission at shadow Moses a long time ago. Snake stood up and pointed over to the castle. "I see you over there!" Snake said. "Huh? what do you mean" Kin jumped over and yanked the binoculars from snake. Looking through them, he could see Evil Kin right on the top of the castle roof, arms crossed. "There he is!" Kin yelled, he went into a serious expression, then he looked again. Another person appeared and started to have a conversation with him, he was wearing a leather coat, had short silver Grey hair, and an eye patch. "Wait who is that guy? he kind of looks like you!" Kin said as he handed the binoculars back to snake. "Hmmm" snake said. but the man was gone when snake checked. "I dont see anything"

[Millica Kerensky]
[Hyrule fields]

The night was felt heavy to Millica, which alone was a strange thought. Her wandering had lead her to absolutely no villages (although there had been one farm along the way, but the workers were less-that-willing to help her) and she was beggining to feel kind of lost. However, distantly, she suddenly heard the sounds of battle. Someone was fighting nearby, against what was unclear. Instantly, she began to wander off, leaving the person to what would no doubt be a grisly fate when a thought occured to her.

It may be Allard.

Instantly she slung her bag over her shoulder and withdrew from it her long, bladed weapon and charged in the direction of the sound, jumping through brush and various debris as she lept into action.... only to find the battle already finished when she arrived. Standing amongst the dead and dismembered bodies of inhuman creatures was a woman dressed in unusual clothing, weilding what apeared to be a monster's weapon. An undertone of irony struck Millica with that, but she repelled the thought.

There was a short period of silence before Millica said "So I guess you really didn't need help, then, quinteff?" A smile spread across her face. "That's good."

Trinity turned around to hear the delightful comment by the woman across from her. Trinity held her sword in her hand loosening her grip as she got closer. The woman looked older, more mature, trustworthy. Trinity was getting lucky today with all these nice people.

"I bet I'm going to get married to a man in Hyrule if this nice people thing continues," Trinity thought to herself.

She approached the woman carefully and lowered her weapon.

"Well I need help and your the only person here, would you mind doing a young lady a favour?" Trinity asked politely. "This may sound wrong but I have already mapped out where to go at the local bar and it leads to this place called the "gerudo desert" and thats where I can find my prized possession."

Trinity began walking away hoping this new girl would follow him.

Eiron was taken completely by surprise by Snicket’s words, and he could not help but feel touched by the comparison-though he hardly felt he deserved it. He did not have a chance to respond directly to the young writer (as Zel burst onto the scene making crude jokes and Sour stepped forth to speak words of encouragement), but Eiron thought he saw a bit of understanding in Snicket’s eyes.

You remind me more of myself than anyone else I’ve ever met.

More so than you realize, Eiron thought sadly. His mind occupied, he had to struggle to pay attention to Sour’s speech, though he clapped and cheered earnestly at their conclusion. For now, he resolved to remain happy, despite the mortal peril they faced. The sense of companionship and camaraderie was a wholly unique experience to him, and regardless of what the future might hold, he decided to cherish the moment.

As Sour stepped down to speak with Snicket, Eiron noticed Ganon withdraw slightly, his arms folded. His face held ill concealed disgust, as if he thought such measures were a waste of time. Seeming to sense Eiron’s gaze, Ganon’s eyes flicked to Eiron’s, who despite the sudden drop in temperature he felt, did not lower his eyes. For what must have been an instant but seemed an eternity, the Dark Lord considered the young summoner, recalling his earlier meeting with Mewtwo. He smirked, finally, and turned his attention back to the great double doors ahead of them.

Snicket and Sour finished shaking hands, and Eiron slowly ascended the final few steps to the massive throne room door. An icy cold knot forming in his stomach, and he placed his palms on the door and pushed forward. Meeting great resistance, the door slowly creaked open, grudgingly accepting this final act of intrusion. Suddenly, Eiron was joined at the door, surrounded by his companions. To his right, Captain Falcon heaved against the massive door, grinning to Eiron and winking as he did so. Beyond him Dobs and Toran leaned into the heavy barrier, pushing forward with all their might. To his left, Snicket, Zel, and Yoshi pressed onward, and finally, the door opened with ease.

The expansive throne room was bathed in red light and strewn with rubble. Collapsed columns littered the floor and much of the exterior wall was completely blasted apart. With a start, Eiron spotted the Great Hall from which he had witnessed Sovaherc’s death. However, all attention immediately settled on the lone, dark figure atop the vaulted centerpiece of the room-the throne. Crehavos sat nonchalantly above them, his head cocked to the side and resting easily against his hand. He held an air of slight amusement, but Eiron gained the distinct impression that such a state might shatter, and violently.

In fact, Eiron thought, Crehavos seemed infinitely different than he had during his brief encounter with him at Skytown. The suave aura of confident superiority and control had vanished. The amusement on Crehavos’ face now looked far crueler, more unstable. As the last of the Super Smash Saviors entered the room, he rose.

“More worthless insects to stand before me…” he said quietly. Set against the murky crimson sun, his features were masked in darkness. “To me, your powers are nothing…” he continued, motioning to a dark shape next to the throne. With a start, Eiron realized that Bowser lay beside the throne, beaten and broken. He could only vaguely detect the soft heaves of the great beast’s breathing. “And nothing, multiplied even by a thousand,” Crehavos said, descending from his throne towards the assembled heroes, “Is still nothing.”

[Dobs]

((Slightly before Eiron's post))

"So, do we have an actual plan" asked Dobs, more to himself than anyone else.

He turned to his drone companion for reassurance, but the being simply stared forward towards the enormous black doors before them with so much intensity that Dobs half expected laser-beams to shoot from his eyes. Toran wanted to exact revenge on the one whom had destroyed his home, and who would destroy all else if he were not stopped here. He didn't know how he could be stopped, or if he could be stopped. But he, and everyone else in the small resistance, would rather die trying than live to see this monster's plans fulfilled.

"I have a plan, actually," said Dobs, "We go in there, and we fight. Its got a certainty of death, and a small chance of success, what are we waiting for?"

With a nod, he and Toran walked forwards and began to push on the black doors which were now the only things standing between them and almost certain death.

Genesis looked away as the strange mutant asked the questions. Genesis replied, "I don't answer to people I don't know...but I'll let you know I was sent here by accident, if you think I feel like being here do think twice, its bad enough I'm stuck with my rival...but oh well."

Genesis then looked back at Mewtwo and said, "And who's this Dark Lord you talkin about? ( I hope he's not talkin about Abdol )"

"And to think that the almighty lord of Hell, Crehavos, and his bunch of lackies would rule this day.....*sigh* I must say I actually thank the SSS for dealing with him. They can enjoy their "World Peace" for now, but soon a new domination will spread."

Abdol then looked up at 3 chemical pods lighting up, in them were none other than Genesis's trapped allies Neni, Jonas, and Oakley. Abdol then said,"I wonder where our old friend Genesis would be right now hmhmhmhmh." Suddenly a new person came inside the lab.

Abdol looked at him and said, "Getting used to your new look yet....Dark Genesis?" Dark Genesis stayed silent as he all of a sudden showed only a smirk on his face.

"Are You ready to bind your name?" Sour asked after his rousing speech, hand extended.

With a grim smile, Bob took Sour's hand and shook it firmly. "It's not having my name bound that concerns me," he replied. "It's in what light it is bound. A friend of the Smash Universe?" He looked up at the door. "Or one who only helped bring about its destruction?...."

Once the SSS had entered the throne room, all of a sudden he was there, less than ten yards before them. Crehavos. It seemed too terrible to be real, something borne only from nightmares.

Not even bothering to try Manipulation on the Emperor of Hell, Bob listened to Crehavos's demeaning comments on how they were all nothing compared to him. But at the end he shook his head.

"If we were really nothing," he spoke directly to the tyrant's face, his first words ever spoken to their enemy as it so happened, "then we wouldn't be here. If the Super Smash Saviors," he pronounced, gesturing with his arm to the Brawlers and Forumers beside and behind him, "had no power, then we would never have overcome Bowser's first assault on our base; we wouldn't have defeated Agahnim, your armies, and most of your generals, for that matter. If we were truly nothing to you, Lord Crehavos," the boy said with great emphasis, "then you would not bother destroying us along with yourself."

"You've invoked the fury of the SSS, my Lord," Link added with mock servility. "And if you're going to be so selfish as to attempt to bring everyone down to the misery which you brought upon yourself..." He raised the Master Sword which shone brilliantly in the ruined chamber. "...then we're here to make sure that you go down with our compliments. The serpent will not retreat unbruised."

"This time we will do it together," Zelda whispered to her protector, a hand on his shoulder.

But the Hero of Time had just about relinquished his capacity for patience. He had waited seven long, dreadful years in the dungeons of this very castle, he had been separated from all he loved and cared about, his kingdom had been overrun, his king slain, and even his own reputation tarnished by the stealthy intrusions of Dark Link. And all this was to be blamed on the one before them. He was tired of waiting for the chance to avenge his sufferings as well as the world's sufferings, and now that the chance had been presented to him, he would not let it pass.

"I'm taking him now." The Hylian hero, eyes fixed immovably on the oppressor of the Smash Universe, suddenly rushed forward, lunging at Crehavos with his sword pointed directly at where Crehavos's heart would be.

If he had one.
