"You, turning down alcohol? Man, how the times are changing... C'mon, this one oughta have... non-alcoholic mead or something."

Pietro dashes off to the Bannered Mare.


Taking care to make sure Iris didn't bump her head on anything, Thor carries her to where the two planned on enjoying a feast to remember.

Marth tenses up a bit. His breathing shortens.


Herobrine turns in the direction of the voice.

   "... You've had your fun."    He dumps the lava onto the ground and, as it begins to flow inexorably over the ground in all directions, places a block of stone above it as a perch for himself.

He then draws a bow and takes aim with a flame-enhanced arrow, preparing to shoot if he sees the slightest sign of movement.

Stark follows, not bothering to point out that he's been at that for years. That'd be a mood killer.

"Hey now..." , one of them sinisterly says, the both of them changing their arms into rifles, aiming it at a bush in front of the two.

"Oh dear...", Oliver softly mutters, looking a bit nervous as well.

And then...

The Deliderp suddenly hops out of said bush and onto the sand.

"I knew it, it's that weird bird again."

"Hey! Bird! Stop snooping around the fortress and beat it!"

The one who said the last sentence then fires a warning shot in front of the Deliderp, who starts hopping away to the side rapidly. The two change their arms back to normal, confirming that they hadn't seen Oliver and Marth.

"Seriously, that thing is here every single day. There's no food in these parts, what is its business here supposed to be?" , one of them says as they begin walking again.

"I don't know, and I don't really care. Let's just finish patrol and go back inside. They'll need our help working on our newly attained weapon."

They then walk out of sight, and Oliver sighs in relief.

"How frightening."


The light produced by the lava does make the environment flicker for but a moment, which should tip him off that he's stuck inside an illusion.

An illusion that suddenly gives away completely, and he'll find himself in a more rocky area, dark ground suggesting that he's now in the area next to the area where the trees were.

"Forget about it, I can't find anything to break you with, and now my body is damaged because of whatever you did.", that voice rings again, this time to his side. If he looks, he'll see a colorless girl with small parts of her body burnt away, in a way that should make it impossible for her to just be standing there casually. Yet, she is.


Once they get there Iris lets herself drop out of his arms so that Thor will be able to grab his food. She lands safely on hands and feet for a moment before springing back up.

"I'm feeling meaty today!", she happily says before heading over to the selection of foods. She's thrilled to find there's more than enough of what she wants.

"Come, Iris! Let's feast as if we were about to face Thanos again tomorrow!"

With that, Thor grabs the first turkey leg he sees and gets straight to eating.

"... Did they mention a weapon?" Marth asks suspiciously. His gut is telling him it's bad news.


Herobrine loosens his bow string, pulls out a bucket of milk, confident that he can consume without being deceived, and drinks it to purge any remaining poison or illusion-magic in his system. He scoops up the lava's source block, causing the rest of it to slowly disperse on the ground.

Then he re-equips the bow and takes aim again.

   "Let me gather resources in peace, or so help me, I will not stop hunting you down, no matter how many times I may die or how much I might lose, until you learn to stay out of my business."

Thanks to Luxor's barrier, no real damage was taken by anyone. Mero throws out two cards that create bombs that blow up chunks of the golem's head. It's eyes start to grow dimmer.

The barrier stays up as long as Luxord's cards are up, but Luxord himself is unable to attack as a result. He opts to maintain the barrier.

"Indeed. I suppose it may be best to warn people of this.", Oliver says, after which he gets up, swiping as much dirt as he can off of his clothes.

"I wish to stay around a little while longer. However, you may leave to warn them if you want to. You likely have more connections than I do, word will spread faster that way."


The girl just slightly tilts her head and glares, even when faced with a potential soon-to-be-stuck-in-her-face arrow.

"You're disturbing my peace and threatening my safety. There are enough forests around. Go destroy some of those. But stay out of the one I'm in.", she says without a moment of fear, even taking a step forward.

"Or I will trap you in illusions within illusions, going so deep that even when you wake, you'll still never be sure if you're not still within an illusion."


"You're speaking my language!", Iris excitedly says, after which she does the exact same as Thor.

"Alright. Thank you, Oliver."

Marth makes his retreat from the premises.


Herobrine makes that eerie zombie-like groan again and instantly vanishes, as if to suggest nothing could keep him held down, as a parting threat.

The girl keeps her glare.

"Next time, I'll tear him apart.", she mutters before turning around and walking away.


Oliver nods to Marth as he leaves.

"Safe travels, King Marth.", he says before they part. He then looks back at the fortress.

"I do so wonder what goes on inside of those walls..."


Cyber Angel Fortress

Within a large bedroom, the General is lying down on a bed. It isn't asleep, instead staring up at the ceiling with a lifeless gaze. It hears the door opening and someone walking inside, but don't react to it at all, almost in a catatonic state.

I see you're not feeling any better yet.", the Queen says. The General doesn't immediately react, prompting the Queen to sigh.

"Were the things you saw that horrifying?"

The General, without looking at the Queen, now sits upright.

"It was like every awful thing from the past hitting me at once." , it weakly says.

"... You can stay inside and try to recover for the next few days. You don't have to go on any missions during that time.", the Queen says.

"What kind of example would that set?"

"The example that everyone has a limit on what they can take."

The Queen gets back up and looks at the General.

"Look, I'm very aware that you're not fond of the way I do things. This must have been weighing on you even before this encounter. However, I know you're accepted that this is simply how things are going to be."

The General slowly gets up too, still not looking directly at the Queen.

"Yes. Things are always the same."

"Yes, they are, because of our superior might."

"Might and war were never a focus in the past."

"No, they were not. And we both know where that got us."

The General turns around incredibly fast, snapping back to the Queen.

"We've been driving this too far, and now we've ended up in a world of nightmares!"

"Now, I understand you're shaken, but remember to watch your tone, General. We came to this world to retrieve my box, and to punish the thieving rats who dared trick us."

"A single creature did this to me! A group of people with little to no technology wiped out one of our attack squadrons! One person took on a Commander Unit and was victorious! Face it, this world isn't like the ones that came before, we aren't capable of handling all the beings that frequent it!"

"Remember that we have many more weapons at our disposal than just ourselves, including our newest addition. Everything will be perfectly fine."

"They managed to vanquish those two immensely powerful beings too!"

"Those beings did not cooperate with one another. They wasted their powers on petty squabbles and underestimated how much this affected the battle. We, however, work as a single unit.", the Queen says, starting to lose her patience.

"How can you expect that your ambitions won't lead us to ruin in this world!? Why are you so certain of our victory!?"

"Because we have THIS!", the Queen suddenly yells as she throws her staff onto the bed. The two go quiet for a moment, after which the General looks saddened.

"... I miss the days where you could dance, carefree of all troubles."

The Queen moves to grab the staff again, breathing out once to calm down.

"Those days mean little to me compared to our future.", she says.

"If we continue down this road, we may not have a future."

The Queen angers for a moment, then narrows her eyes.

"Had it not been for me, our future would've been null and void long ago!"

The General doesn't respond to that, just glancing down at the floor as the Queen starts walking back to the door.

"... when you feel ready to go out again, you may inform me. Until then, you should rest. It will do you good."

"... perhaps." , the General says, after which the Queen leaves. The General lays back down on the bed, trying to sleep this time.

The ensuing tears make it difficult to do so for a while.

A portal appeared in Limbo and a Kirby holding a kitchen knife came out. He started to run around Limbo, looking for his next victim. It looked more like he was teleporting though, him suddenly dissapearing in a blur of pink and then reapearring somewhere else, leaving dust flying in the air.

Vauge Onyxis

CounterChaos Vegeta steps through a portal, and reenters the Arena for the first time in quite a while.

"Hm. It seems different."

The Elite sniffs the air, trying to get a bearing on where he is.

Vague Onyxis

Bandana Waddle Dee wanders through the cold, holding up a flaming spear for warmth and to see.


Tel Mithryn

Star Knight stands before the mushroom house, demonstrating his moves on a seemingly invincible metal Waddle Dee that's just sort of standing there and taking it.

He slashes it twice in rapid succession, leaps up while doing a sword uppercut, dragging it up with him, then does a flip and slams it down, finally launching it with a pillar of energy that goes sliding out over the ground upon impact.

Konngara stands nearb, attentively watching Star Knight's demonstration.

"An impressive finishing attack."

She follows up with an attempt to mimic his move. The mid-air flip poses her some difficulty for a while, being a maneuver she isn't used to, but after multiple tries and pointers from the astral warrior she manages to successfully pull off a Final Cutter, replacing the energy burst with an erupting pillar of flames.

Bandana Dee jumps back when Vegeta pops up.

He looks at him suspiciously, tilting his head.

"No."


"You learn fast. Let's try something that makes use of that fire."

He grips his sword tight as energy builds up, then it transforms into a wicked, wavy-shaped flaming blade.

Then, he rushes forward while wrapped in flames, producing an explosion at the end of his dash.

Vegeta glares at the Dee, before sighing.

"... That's not uncommon to think. Though I had hoped my casual attire would dissuade that line of thinking."

Oh, is that why he always wears the Badman shirt nowadays?

"You're a 'dee', right? ... And judging by that spear, a warrior?"
