"Crap!" Roxas exclaimed, seeing what was happening to Game & Watch. He then angled the Blade at the strange foes eye, and yelled "Fire!". A huge fireball flew towards Andross, a trail of smoke trailing behind.

Shadow finally managed to land after trying to prolong his ascent into the air for so long allowing the grenade to go off. Unfortunately the grenade blast radius was just too large before Shadow could avoid it airborne and he was sent flying towards the entrance to Life Sphere where dozens of destroyed and beaten bodies lay dormant on the ground along the way. He crashed into the dirt path as his face raked the soil. He slowly looked around. Many defeated warriors lay defeated as trophy stands on the ground around Shadow, including his old friend E-Gamma. He sighed.

"I'm so sorry...old friend."

The blast radius scathed Shadow, but he was not too hurt thanks to his attempt to stay in the air as long as he could and his trusty jet boots. He slowly pushed himself back up to his feet and hobbled inside the Sphere where he saw a gigantic threat being attacked by able bodied warriors, but not many. He even saw Star Fox join in, whom he swears he hasn't seen before, but heard alot about him. But he also noticed a small army of Infected apes walking into the Lab with a helpless Bowser Jr. in the doorway. He snickered.

"Stupid turtle creature! Can't even do a simple task."

Shadow rolled into his usual ball and performed a Spike Ball Charge N' Roll to zip his way into the lab and attempt to bowl the enemies over that were approaching.

Mario now has successfully cleared out the gate area with the help of his Goomba buddies which were now down to two and turned his attention towards the giant threat in the middle of Life Sphere. He knew he had to help, for he saw that the able bodied fighters were not holding their own well. He forged his hands into fists and a boiling anger leaped off his face with a twinkle in his mustache. He looked at his bruised and battered Goomba brethren and then back up at Andross and was fully prepared to fight to the death to defend his people and the only thing keeping everyone alive, The Life Sphere.

"I understand...we are all quite exhausted. But this...has got to end once and for all. This is our one and only home right now friends, we must protect it at all costs. We are all working together in unity for once, and we can finally prove that team work comes in all forms. Let's make one more push to fight off this indigenous threat, and wipe the Life Sphere clean from Infected scum! FIGHT! INTO THE FRAY!"

Mario and the tired little Goombas that were with him, charged towards Andross with a burning fury but just as they were about to attack, laser beams were being shot at Andross from a strange location. Mario and the others stopped and looked closely at who it was, and by some miracle Star Fox was alive and well from being away on a dangerous mission and supporting the cause!

Fox began circling Andross is an amazing speed propelling lasers from his blaster at Andross to get his attention so that Mario and the others may attack while they momentarily stay unopposed. Mario grinned widely loving the strategy and began chucking fire balls at Andross at the same time the lasers were going off and the Goombas began performing repeated headbutts to the chin of Andross. This left Andross constrained leaving a window of attack for the others.

"Alright, the rest of you know what to do. Unleash on this old ape!"

Fox's confidence was striking and filled with ambition. He was attempting to rally the troops and gather all the help he can get in this situation. He had a feeling this was going to work well.

Game & Watch did some quick thinking in his current predicament and unleashed the mighty blob projectile he received from the Infected trooper and it exploded all over Andross's palms causing a stickiness and stopping the electrical current in its tracks. And the current was originally weakened thanks to the distractions from Fox, Mario, and the Goombas. Andross was now being attacked by all sides and was not very happy. The annoying tickle, was now starting to be a stinging sensation and he despised the feeling.

Roxas finally charged and unleashed his powerful fire attack, and it flung towards his eye. But since his eye was in a sort of wince staring downwards at the attacks below, it wasn't entirely a direct hit, but it definitely scorched his eye lid and managed to do some damage.

A.I.M. continued his wise tactic of surprise and strife and shot a spin top into the same area his laser beams emitted from, but this time the monkeys were split up and few actually took the liberty to discover the spin top distraction and looked at it in confusion but also alertness. There were about 2 that seemed to fall for the tactic. 2 more were out in the open on the streets marching up and down the street area to cover ground in case the robot showed his face. The remaining 2 of the 6 actually covered the rest of the alleys in a duo. The monkeys noticed a figure moving and turned their attention to the very area A.I.M. was actually in, scanning the alley ways with their strange visors for inspection. Eventually all four of them picked up movement and heard noises and began closing in on A.I.M. very slowly from separate directions.

Shadow rushed the marching eight Ruffians at the lab and was able to knock most of them down. But because they were all so clumped up three of them managed to kind of hit the walls instead of falling down completely and were only staggered. Two of them who received the brunt of the move were defeated in the narrow doorway.

Andross was being bombarded from everywhere and started becoming quickly enraged. He suddenly thought of a way to give him somewhat of a breather and halt all assaults. He decided to use his telekinesis abilities to cause all attackers against him to suddenly levitate into the air. He managed to cause them all to freely float in the air attempting to make them helpless unless they could devise a strategy to escape this strange fiasco. Now this minor tactic required an immense amount of focus, if there was any fighter that did not succumb to this move, they could easily catch him off guard and attack him during this focused move, but there didn't appear to be any nearby that were in a position to truly attack him, so his focus remained for as long as these levitating challengers could take it.

The Ruffians were spread out in far and wide positions literally covering every point of the living quarters area. These were trained troops, and natural scavengers obviously, or so it seemed, and in their search for the robot two of them managed to pick up where A.I.M. was and fired their ray guns in unison at the robot in one of the alley ways aiming straight for his neck as if trying to fire off his head, and they were doing this in rapid increments. Their fingers were not letting go of the trigger. This ofcourse gained the other Ruffians attention as they all now closed on in this area the robot was in, all 6 of them total.

The remaining 8 reached the entrance of the lab. Samus was working away up above still charging up her gun. The Ruffians were about to dispose of Bowser Jr. by firing a parade of lasers from their ray guns at the poor soul, that is, until Shadow knocked nearly all of them down like bowling pins. He defeats two, with three more falling to the ground hurt from the move, leaving three staggered and leaning against the walls from the flank attack. The staggered three started immediately firing their ray guns at Shadow in the enclosed lab space destroying circuitry and various machines nearby, which hopefully Samus didn't need at the moment.

--To Those That Chose To Fight Outside--

Leon was at last able to lodge an exploding grenade at the Gordo's. Sonic managed to jump out of the way just in time and land to the outside of the enemies. Sonic had to endure tremendous pain by pushing through their spikes, but he lived through it with lots of scratches and cuts by a hair. The grenade did end up scattering the Gordo's and pushing them outwards in separate directions. A large crater was the result of this in the ground. However, this explosions seemed to only anger the enemies, their bodies seemed to burn with a puff of steam and they showed increased hostility in an instant.

Sonic was seriously in pain now. He was huffing and puffing with minor bleeding from shoving through the spiked bodies of the Gordo's to avoid getting hit by the grenade.

"I hope that lame grenade...was...worth it....."

Sonic slowly tried to regain his breath and knew he had to pull off a combo strategy with Leon to truly beat these creatures.

"Alright dude. Now it's my turn to lead. So...I'm gonna run in a circle around these clowns as fast as I can, they'll be dizzy from my circular motions as I taunt them, that's when I make a cyclone around them from running circles and you toss your grenade into the cyclone. The moment that grenade leaves your hand, I'll roll away from the enemies and the cyclone should still be strong for a few seconds. That grenade will explode into the cyclone and cause a much more destructive impact which will hopefully dwindle their numbers if not kill em all. Sound good...LEEEEON? Good. It better be cool with you, cause after this I'm all outta juice."

Sonic did his best to ignore his pain and the scrapes and cuts all over him allowing blood to trickle from his pores and put all his faith into one well placed grenade from a guy he hardly knew. He began running in circles around the enemies taking a breath whenever he could and making the cyclone.

The Gordos unleashed their fury and began firing long bolts of spikes from their bodies at Leon and Sonic, with Shadow now in the Life Sphere. It was a game of two against ten now, and those spikes were traveling in all directions, with the majority heading right for Leon. Luckily Sonic was dodging them pretty well in his circular speed vacuum, with every step of his running zooming the spiked foes closer and closer together as air pushes them into eachother slowly but surely. The cyclone would take a bit more time to be complete though. There were a few spikes that were fired in a precision split into the air to go over Sonic's circular wind and falling outward in Leon's area. And they were falling fast.

A few unexpected maneuvers were performed from fighters this time around, and it seems the tides are slowly turning in favor, but it's not over yet.

(My apologies, I posted a couple of days ago, but the site must not of accepted it or I missed the submit button.)
Leon attempted to dodge the spikes as well, however two ended up penetrating his disease weakened body. One piercing his left shoulder, the other his left leg. Leon grunted in pain as he removed the spikes from his body, blood oozing from the wounds. Between his wounds and the disease Leon was weakened. As he pulled out his grenade and once the cyclone was ready, he pulled the pin and hoped it would land in the right spot.

To any "outside" eyes viewing this, a sign would be shown under a dark figure sitting in the shadows, wearing a black hooded cloak with the hood up. He sat on a wall with his arms crossed, awaiting the perfect time to strike. No one would know who he was either, if his giant nose didn't give him away, showing through his hood. As soon as his allies were floating in the air, he took this as a good time to attack.

The dark clad warrior jumped high up on a building, and continued jumping up on higher buildings and higher buildings as he jumped, soon he found himself jumping off of a high building, appearing right next to Andross, starting his signature "Jump Punch". He threw on fist at Andross, the other fist pointed downward. As he got further, his cloak came up, revealing Mario's green clad, younger brother, Luigi.

A New Challenger Appears!

Skull Kid had been relaxing on a taller building in the living quarters when the Ruffians showed up. He watched as A.I.M. was able to dispatch two of them, but was then caught in an alley way with two of them firing on him with deadly accuracy, and the other four closing in.

He blew his horn, summoning three puppets between the Ruffians and A.I.M., and then began firing darts from his elevated position, hoping to distract the creatures. If he could get their attention, the robot might be able to destroy some of them with his more powerful attacks.

[Mr. Game & Watch]

A.I.M.

Much to the robot’s dismay, A.I.M.’s trap had failed and instead of giving itself the higher advantage it seemed that the Ruffians had taken it. The two that found him skulking in the dark alleys began firing at him and didn’t miss since A.I.M. wasn’t fast enough to dodge their approach. Their aim was for its neck and they hit A.I.M. hard; it wasn’t hard enough to knock its head off, but it was quite close. In fact after being hit A.I.M. could tell that they dislodged a wire or two and considering that there were many wires connecting to its head it wasn’t sure what they had hindered.

To avoid more on coming fire, A.I.M. fled for cover behind a large dumpster and poked its head out to fire its optic blast at its enemies. Before it could though, the sound of a horn distracted the robot as a group of puppets emerged from seemingly nowhere. It perplexed A.I.M., but they weren’t pounding at its chassis so it didn’t bother the damaged robot. It continued to fire at the Ruffians and reassured that the puppets wouldn’t be caught in the crossfire.

Mr. Game & Watch

After his last attack, G&W was finally freed from the electrical prison that he had been under for a while. It was like a breath of fresh air, but it was soon taken away from him once he began to mysteriously float into the air. He was a bit lifeless at first not giving much of a reaction since he was still recovering from the intense electrical shock he had just been put under not too long ago. Quickly however he began to panic since he was rising off the ground and had no freewill to move against it. No doubt the great ape face had something to do with it.

G&W quickly reacted to this action against him and without much thought he internally activated his transformation ability. His body grew to an astonishing size as his limbs took shape into octopus tentacles. He kept changing and morphing until he grew into a two-dimensional octopus matching the size of Andross. G&W figured that given his new size and weight, it would be a lot more difficult for the monkey to focus on him. Even if that didn’t work he still threw one of his arms at the ape in order to slap him with all his might.

Roxas' anger of missing quickly turned into surprise as he rose into the air. "Huh?" he said quietly, confused. It was like flying in Neverland, but he couldn't control where he went.

Suddenly, Roxas got an idea. He pointed the Key Blade away from the lab, and shouted "Fire!". He was then pushed towards the ground. "Aha! A few more shots, and I could make it to the lab!". He then proceeded with his plan, stopping once to catch his breath, then continuing.

Upon reaching the lab entrance, he began throwing the Key Blade like a boomerang at the three firing at the eqipment. His aim wasn't to great, however, since he was still floating in the air. Any time the Blade was about to hit one of Samus' machines, he would quickly summon it back and throw it again.

[WolfEx]

Shadow's attack seemed to work for the most part. The narrow halls gave him an advantage knocking down alot of them and staggering the rest on their feet; however, it didn't suffice without a price and a risk. During this attempt Shadow was bombarded by lasers, and in such a small space he got hit hard. He was already partially hurt by Leon's delayed grenade, and now these laser beams were being shot right at him. He would do what any hedgehog would do in such a predicament, roll into a defensive ball and hope for the best, but he wasn't an ordinary hedgehog. He had the power of the chaos emerald and Eggman's sick and twisted experimental aftermath in him.

"CHAOS...CONTROL!!!!!"

In an instant, Shadow used his power to teleport behind the entire crowd of enemies now facing them in the small hallway, he proceeded to bash them with a heavy elbow once again attempting to knock them all down and hopefully finish them off. This had to work, because he wouldn't have been able to take much more hits before being defeated.

Mario's fireballs seemed to be aiding in the damage being dealt to Andross. Mario kept a close eye on the enemy's expressions and his physicality to be sure that he was indeed starting to fall into pain and not being anywhere near getting a second wind so to speak. The Goombas stopped their relentless headbutting even though it was working, they began feeling precariously tired and slowly fell to their backs in collapsed exhaustion.

"We...we can't go on anymore..M...Mario. He's...too hard to take down."

And with that, the Goombas fainted closing their large eyes and gaping mouths into a condensed unconsciousness. Mario frowned and eyed the ground in sadness. His friends were getting hurt and pushed to their limits because of this giant threat, and even he was starting to draw his own limits from all the battling. His fire balls grew smaller and smaller the more he attacked. He was the only one out of the few who was not succumbed to the levitation trap by Andross, he was far enough away with his distance attacks that he was safe.

"No, friends...I'm starting to feel faint myself. My power...I am simply using too much. I must eat to regain my strength, and soon."

Mario needed a super mushroom or at least some kind of meal to keep up with this fighting. He hoped the others weren't feeling too tired from all the fighting themselves.

Fox unfortunately was caught off guard by Andross's trickery and propelled into a levitation. He had a clever idea though. He used his fire boost maneuver just like Roxas, to push himself back to the ground and break through the levitation field. Once he landed to the ground he jumped onto the wall of a nearby building and bounced off of it for leverage in order to do his infamous Fox Illusion technique.

His plan was to continuously attack Andross in a horizontal dashing path back and forth until he ran out of energy to attack Andross any longer. He noticed Mario was losing the ability to fight from battling so long, and the least he could do was take over for a while with his continuous attacking to be the prime target for Andross while the others continue with the onslaught. Without further thought, Fox began his attempt and in seconds was dashing and cutting through Andross forwards and backwards until he couldn't take it anymore.

Luigi out of nowhere launched himself off of one of Life Sphere's highest buildings and cut his fist through the air aiming right for Andross. He was like a God send and an added helping hand come to defeat the biggest threat in Life Sphere to date, a hooded blessing in disguise. Just in time too! Exhaustion seemed to just now rear its ugly head taking its toll on some prime fighters. In seconds Luigi's move connects smashing the back of Andross's head with tenacity with a direct hit!

Skull Kid from an elevated stance fired several darts at the oncoming Ruffians closing in on A.I.M. and managed to do some damage to them, although it was not enough to destroy them, it managed to pierce their skin and cause some bleeding. Some of their visors even got cracked from the attack above. They were now more confused as ever as to where the attacks were coming from. Four of these Ruffians were caught in this crossfire and staggered backwards a bit from the move. There were also three puppet like creatures blocking their path to the robot which made them worried and slightly unsure what to do now.

However, two of the Ruffians were already close enough to A.I.M. closing in as they fired their lasers at him. But they noticed A.I.M. taking cover and a slew of puppets appear right behind them. They turned around to look at the puppets wondering where they came from, but as they did this A.I.M. was able to fire from cover, and nail them in their spines with another precise laser blast destroying the two nearest him leaving four remaining and blocked by the puppets and a crossfire of darts.

Game & Watch having taken a good deal of damage by Andross seemed to have had enough. He transformed himself into a giant octopus like creature and immediately broke the pull from Andross's levitation attack with a lashing tentacle to his face causing Andross to break concentration and form a beating sweat stopping the entire levitation hold completely. Everyone that was in the field now fell to the ground. Andross was now slowly starting to sway, as if about to give up the fight soon.

Shadow was in quite the predicament being barraged by the Ruffians and their laser guns, but he managed to muster up the strength to use Chaos Control and teleport behind the enemies and their attacks. Since the space was so small, some of them even accidentally shot themselves as Shadow teleported causing at least one of them to be destroyed by their own blind fire and two more to be finished off by Shadow's heavy elbow pummeling. That leaves a current total of three left from the enclosed space bout. Shadow was still outnumbered, and was now in danger of being completely annihilated by the remainder.

In a stroke of luck, Roxas pushed himself out of Andross's levitation pull right before Game & Watch broke the concentration effort from Andross allowing Roxas to make his way to the lab and save Shadow from eminent doom! His Key Blade smacked the back of all three of the Ruffian's heads killing off the rest of them as they turned into puddles of goo leaving Shadow untouched at the last second and safe....for now. Samus seemed to have the protection she had so desperately needed presently and her lab didn't get completely devastated in the meantime. And to lighten up the situation even further, her powerful gun was finally ready, at the perfect time, too! The asteroid was just beginning to cut through the Life Sphere bubble!

Samus smiled widely as her gun made a beautiful whirring sound confirming to her that it was ready to fire. Without further hesitation, Samus launched the weapon!

"Thank you...THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR YOUR EFFORTS! FINALLY! FIREEEEE!!!!!!!!!"

In a magical array of particles and bright flashes the cannon scored a direct hit right into the asteroid's mouth completely obliterating it into tiny pieces and chunks of goo as pieces of the now destroyed threat rain all around the Life Sphere bouncing off its shields and onto the outside surface.



The sight of destruction has never been more beautiful. Hope has returned at last!



After the canon fire, and everything was settled with the oncoming threat, Samus rolled off the seat of her machine and stared at the living threat inside the Sphere itself. She stood boldly on her two feet and jumped off the roof. She stood side by side with all the fighters and began charging her arm gun at Andross.

"You dare come into OUR home...with OUR friends...and attempt to destroy the only last remaining beacon of hope for us? Nothing beats the power of friendship...of family...and you damn sure aren't destroying my...hard...WORK! Let's FINISH this!"

The charging shot from her gun kept getting bigger and bigger, much bigger than she usually makes it almost overcharging her weapon! But her anger was so fierce, so strong, so passionate that she would not allow anything to get in the way of making their living and thriving community safe from harm.

"Everyone, aim your best attack at this foolish and pathetic space trash! Let's blast him back where he belongs!"

All the surrounding citizens of Life Sphere who were not fighting before hand, were now lining up next to Samus, preparing their biggest attack, to defeat this giant monster. Everyone was joining together, for one final assault on the remaining enemy.

Andross was now in a strenuous sweat, his eyes enlarged, veins popping out around his cornea, the vessels of his head were even puffing out nearly through the skin. His hands were cracked and scarred. His chin bruised, his cheek bones sunken in. There was no doubt, he was about to be defeated!

"You...HEATHENS! You think the Infected can be defeated so easily? GA HAHAHAHA! WE ARE ONE! WE ARE UNIFIED! There are so many of us, we will always come back ten fold! You will NEVER defeat us all! EVER! The heavens weep at our power, the pits of hell welcome our rage! We are a species that have never been accepted in all our years in the galaxy, Tabuu still lives, Tabuu will make an example of you all! An army couldn't stop him before, and an army won't stop him now! And the maker's hands, Master Hand...Crazy Hand...have become more powerful than ever. You will never understand the meaning of true strength....you...will all....become dust in our wake. GRAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!"

Andross's brain was beginning to be overwhelmed with extreme tension and thought, he started grasping his head in pain, the Infected chemical in him was using a self defense mechanism forcing Andross to push himself to a point of self explosion. He needs to be defeated quick before he blows up the entire Life Sphere!

There were now only four Ruffians left. They were outnumbered by a small group of puppets, a flanking Skull Kid above them, and a devious robot distanced ahead of them. Fear was starting to fill their hearts. They could feel that their boss Andross was also in distress and about to give up. Suddenly they felt no longer a will to fight, but had no choice but to continue. They even attempted at one point to fight the Infected chemical in their brains, but as they tried they grew dizzy and screamed in pain. This was a rare moment that the Smash fighters got to see that perhaps, there was a chance that the Infected could be beaten, that the mental war between Infected chemicals and the wonder of the living brain wasn't completely hopeless after all. In an agonizing scream and a heated sweat trickling down their dimples they fired blindly at the puppets in front of them and Skull Kid above them as well as in all directions, no longer in control, battling an inner struggle. They were losing a battle they could not win, and have lost all control and all confidence to win.

--To Those That Chose To Fight Outside--

Leon was wounded, badly, but he refused to give up the fight. With one last effort and a focused aim, Leon pulled out another grenade and chucked it in the cyclone. As Sonic saw this he quickly rolled out of the way and by Leon's side, grabbing Leon's arm and dashing far away bringing him along. The grenade landed in dead center of the cyclone, and exploded viciously causing a tornado of flames to swirl around the enemies and engulf them entirely center. After a few moments, the cyclone and swirl of flames subsided. There was nothing left but ash and goo. The damage was done.

Sonic and Leon were now watching at a distance at the pile of defeated monsters some distance away. Sonic looked away in disgust and disappointment.

"To think....that some strong living creatures like those...could give in to the Starvia....I can't help but feel bad. They didn't want to be the way they were, they just couldn't fight it. Poor...bastards..."

Sonic fainted as he finished his sentence at Leon's feet battered and scarred, bleeding profusely out his side. He couldn't have stood any longer even if he wanted to. It was now up to Leon whether to head to the Life Sphere alone, or drag Sonic with him. The threat would soon end.

Skull Kid ordered what was left (if any were left) of his puppets to attack the enemies. Their fearful rage was terrifying, and Skull Kid took two direct blows to the face. He immediately teleported to another building top nearby, not quite as tall, but still close enough to see the Ruffians, and avoided fire for just a moment. He looked down to realize he was above the robot now. He hopped down and landed beside A.I.M. behind cover.

"My puppets won't last long at all now, but those monkey guys are still very dangerous. I see that you are hurt, but we have to finish them off." He peeked out from cover for a moment to check on the creatures. "We need to attack them in an indirect way that keeps us from being heavily damaged and I wanted to see if you had any ideas?" He dove backwards into cover, almost taking another blind shot to the face. "Their weapons are scary." And with that he looked to his teammate for an answer to the current dilemma.

[Deleted]

"Sorry to keep you waiting!" a familiar friendly and young male voice called out with a joyous laughter, wings illuminating a blue glowing as he flew into the battlefield to assist the defenders all he can of what was left of the threats. The battle was so close to ending, yet it seemed that many of the determined fighters were beginning to fall like flies as their energy level was running in the negatives by now; Pit felt they could use an extra boost! He would have joined in on the ongoing battle much more earlier had he not any... important business to take care of...

A couple minutes ago: "Pit, get up from bed, sleepy head! The citizens in the Life Sphere need you!

"Five more minutes Lady Palutena...."

Okay, so maybe it wasn't so important. But come on, with all this chaos he can't always be early and prepared all the time! When was the last time he slept in? ...Last night, oh yeah. And the night before. He should shut up now.

Lucky the Palutena had set Pit off not at all far from the Life Sphere, giving Pit more time to use the Power of Flight during the fight, even if it were only a few minutes, it sure does help! The Power of Flight only lasts 5 minutes for Pit until his wings would burn up and make him plummet to earth, and it had taken him 3 to make it to the battle field. Two minutes in the air proves to go a long way.

The first thing Pit saw as he was approaching the battlefield (after that huge blast from some laser, at least. It was so cool!) was a giant floating... monkey head? It seemed to be weakening! The angel of Skyworld grinned as he readied his two blades to form a bow, pulling back a string of light that created a blue light that matched the one emitting from his wings, shooting out repeated shots of Palutena's Arrows to Andross as he speedily flew around him as fast as his wings would allow. "Sorry, monkey-head~!" Pit apologized in a rather cheerful tone and beam, his wings flapping rapidly at the final seconds of his ability of flight, making him plummet to the floor as the blue light faded from his back, though landed lightly on his feet. He turned over his shoulder, seeing four monkeys, assuming they were minions to the one with the giant head. Just guessing. He seemed a bit confused as they screamed out in agony. That was random. Though he paid no more mind to it as they started blasting at the defenders, splitting his bow into dual blades for each hand, running at one and slashing at it before it could fire again. "Didn't expect me, did ya~?" The commander chirped and grinned cheekly over to Skull Kid and A.I.M, spinning a blade between his fingers as he stepped back cautiously from one of the primates.

With all the strength he could muster up, Leon carried his blue friend and E-102 Gamma's trophy into the life sphere only to find the battle ragging on. "C'mon, give me a break already!" he complained, as he, Sonic, and Gamma began to levitate.

Some how managing to move around he brought his two wounded companions to Samuse's lab, hoping it would prove a safe place for them to rest. "I need medical personnel here stat!" he commanded, hoping this strange place did have some medical personnel. Since he was weak, Leon knew better than to charge at Andross, he fire a couple wild shots at him in hopes of weakening him for the others, but ultimately could do little aside from protecting the lab. "Go get'em guys!"

Luigi's uppercut had landed successfully.... But what was next? Before the usual sign of comic relief fell to the ground (possibly an untimely demise), he grabbed a handful of the giant monkey's hair, then he began to quickly pull up on the fur, eventually climbing up to the top of Andross' head. Luigi then looked up at the meteor as it was blown to bits, somehow, the green clad plumber saw hope within this.... Hope that things would somehow get at least a tad bit how it used to be, but for now, this wasn't the case. Luigi then grabbed a pretty large falling rock as it fell from the sky towards him, and threw it at the top of Andross' head (comedy at it's finest to anyone that could see him).

Before Andross could try to swipe him off, Luigi would tactically jump about 5 feet, then land back down, looking downwards, he saw Samus charging a blast and knew it was about time to end it. Luigi then decided to help the
best way he could. Soon, Luigi clapped his hands and
began doing a series of random dances. As he danced,
a green bubble formed around Andross (if successful),
Luigi was performing his move that was only original for
him, a move that could be the main ingredient they need: The Negative Zone! The mushroom eating man would notice whatever status ailment came about if all this happened, and wave both arms around rapidly down at Samus and the others.

" Hey-a guys ! Finish him off-a so I can get down ! "

Hopefully they could hear him, the tone of his voice showed impatience.

[Mr. Game & Watch]

A.I.M.

A.I.M. pulled its head back behind the cover of the iron dumpster in order to avoid the fire of its enemies. It began to wonder why its main weapon was also where all its processing was located. It was obviously a huge design flaw that would need to be looked over before it went out to fight again as it does seem to be a large inconvenience. Anyways, as it was ducking for cover a strange creature descended from a large building and landed beside the robot behind the cover of the dumpster. It did not read any form of the starvia with his body and it took A.I.M. a while before its databanks could identify what species it was.

As the Skull Kid asked what would be their next step, there was an unusual noise that rose from their enemies’ location. It peeked back over the side of the dumpster and noticed that the infected were acting strangely and it wasn’t anything like what A.I.M. had experienced from them before. Suddenly the screeching apes were struck from behind by an angelic being, A.I.M. identified him as Pit.

“Warning: hovering disabled. Power cable obstructed.” A.I.M.’s processor quietly signaled. No doubt the last shot the green mechanism took dislodged it and its power reserves were probably at an all time low. It twisted its head back over to the Skull Kid who asked what was next to do. “Cover fire. He needs it, we give it.” It commanded. A.I.M. then turned its attention back at the Ruffians and locked on the ones that Pit hadn’t aimed for.

Mr. Game & Watch

The Game & Watch octopus did not pay attention to anything within his surroundings because all that matter to him right now was the great ape face. It was basically G&W’s final struggle because after he changes back into his normal form he will be completely exhausted. In fact he could feel that he wouldn’t be in his octopus form for much longer, it felt like it could be seconds. The monkey head began to bather on about something, but G&W didn’t catch much of it. It sounded like the old shtick of ‘oh yeah, well wait until my dad hears about what you did!’ Something along those lines.

G&W summoned all his strength and began to spread out his tentacles in order to give Andross a mighty barrage of lashes. Being that he is two dimensional it is a strange sight to see and quite confusing. He collected four tentacles on one side and the other four on the other and whipped with one collection of tentacles and then the others in a repeated motion until he would transform back into his smaller size. It was not too long, since he unleashed about 3 or so of those lashes before he morphed back into his small blocky figure.
