What in the world...? It appears that this creature was nothing more than a mushroom-shaped being with a pair of brown shoes and a large bag strapped onto his back. Wait, does this world have their own version of Metools or is this boy going crazy? "Uhhmm... I'm sorry?" He responded, sorta puzzled on how this fungus was able to steal so many items over the past few days... without any ARMS for crying out loud! This was starting to get ridiculous just thinking about it, so he decided to just--... Wait, what the heck? Looks like this strange creature has an acquaintance... a flying one at that; so Mega Man was right--there was no way that the fungus was able to continuously steal from the people by himself. 

Out of nowhere, Mega Man and Rush noticed that the dog had the thief's companion by the ropes!

... or in this case, the vines. The boy watched as she tugged onto the flying turtle who was probably stuck in mid flight. Seeing the both of them in this condition made it easier for Rockman to shoot them, but... he didn't. Why? He was pretty concerned on what was in that bag, does it contain anything expensive or were they weapons that only the highest authorities such as Mario and Sonic could have a hold of? Whatever that was within that bag, Mega Man had to treat it as a fragile thing. Who knows on what contents that were stored away in the bag. Instead of firing, the boy ordered the dog to speed towards them and slow down when they get to the point where it'll be easy for them to grab the bag while they're struggling with the dog and the 2-dimensional warrior seizing them from leaving. As the boy and dog got close enough, the dog began to slow down while Mega Man lunged forward after using the dog's previous speed to throw himself closer to the bag. He immediately changed his buster into his right hand and extended out to try and grab the sack before it was too late... CAN HE GET IT?!

The Para Troopa’s flight pattern went uneasy as the wolf grasped at his leg with a vine. Regardless of how lightweight the creature was, she was still too much for the red shelled turtle to handle. The winged reptile was concentrating as hard as he could to keep himself from plummeting to the ground, but the hail of Mr. Game & Watch’s buffet wasn’t making things any easier. In fact it was pummeling just about everyone in the vicinity due to how widespread and in direct the food was being launched. Except for the Goomba since he was directly under the Koopa, so it was safe from any damage.

The Goomba’s eyes targeted the white wolf holding on to his comrade by a vine his sharp teeth would have no issue cutting straight through. “Well, look at this, hoss, we got us a joyrider. Looks like we’re gonna have to cut him off” the brown blob said with glee right before he chomped down on the one thing that was stopping the wolf from falling to the streets below. With that, the organic rope snapped causing the white creature to go into a state of freefall.

As the Goomba was distracted however, Megaman riding on the Rush platform sneaked up behind him and snatched the very soft and light sack from the crook’s back. It felt very cushiony to touch. The Goomba went more wide-eyed than its bulbous eyes were naturally as he felt the bag be removed from his back.

The Koopa twisted his head back to view the blue boy grab his protégé’s bag and immediately performed a U-turn since the loss of the extra weight made him far more maneuverable. “No, no, no! Keep moving we can still get out of here” the Goomba announced as he looked up at his ride.

“But the package…” the Koopa tried to reason before being cut off again. “Forget that! Let’s get out before we’re caught!” the Goomba shouted as the Para Troopa speedily turned around once more and flapped his wings as fast as he could to get some distance from the other flying duo.

Amaterasu snarled as she swung and tugged at the vine, hoping to get the turtle to plummet to the ground. It didn't seem so, for her weight was apparently light enough for the turtle to fly with. Usually, that would be a good thing because she is after all a female, but that fact doesn't benefit much given the situation. Still, she struggled and pulled the vine with her jaw, perhaps if she had fingers she could climb her way up to the culprits Perhaps she can paint in a second vine to snatch the mysterious package they were carrying- What were those little black squiggles?

The small beeps emitting from a short distance and by the look of how two-dimensional the small waves were, they seemed to be from the skinny-sticked one. She growled. The fool! Does he have no brain in that flat head? Apparently not, or perhaps so but as thing a a paper! Surely he couldn't have any good aim by flinging the things from what looked like a frying pan, was he aiming for her or the turtle?! However, it could just be enough to help the turtle plummet to the floor, in which she would then use the two theives to break her fall.

...cut him off." was all she caught from the mushroom-shaped theif. She had to let it process, for the first thing that came to mind made her growl and perhaps emit a threatening round of vicious barks, for she was very obviously a female! Second was the word 'cut'. Wonderful.

She would not be able to bring them both down, but perhaps if it leaned down enough she could cause a bit of damage to it. Quickly, the wolf growled as she started swinging the vine to get an even closer distance, and sharp slash across space with her tail caused both the mushroom and vine to get a thin line of ink splattered, cutting off the vine just as the Goomba had taken its bite on it, but also causing a bit of damage to him. Unfortunately it wasn't much- perhaps it was a bit too far- and she was plummeting to the floor alone, which was not according to plan.

She emitted a whine. This would hurt. She would need to process quickly to avoid it. She noticed the blue blur race through the sky, seeing that the baggage was grabbed. She proceeded to draw another vine before anymore distance was lost, between herself and Rush's body. It was a rather long vine, which was good so her speed would not increase as much, and was only serving as a minor wieght to pull for Rush because she released herself from the vine quickly, only using it to swing across the air and keep herself from plummeting straight down into the ground. Instead, she tumbled. Still painful, but much less damage than what she would have taken.

[Mr. Game & Watch]

With Game & Watch being so distant from the action he could hardly determine anything from his perspective. He watched his hailstorm pound against both his ally and the shelled criminal, but it wasn’t enough damage to either one of them anyway. It was more of a hindrance than anything else, but that was about all his ranged ability was capable of. It wasn’t like he had anything to toss at the enemies either.

G&W hilted his cooking weapon as he watched the white wolf descend after being cut loose by the teeth of the stocky felon. It clearly wasn’t Game & Watch’s fault since his baked goods didn’t determine whether the Goomba was going to do that or not, it was the wolf’s fault for strategizing against what G&W was originally planning. The punishment for her misstep was not nearly as bad as he expected, but whatever it goes by what they say about old dogs.

Anyway, Megaman caught the criminal’s loot, though seemed to let the perpetrators getaway. Well, they weren’t that far away from the boy, but he could have gotten both of them when he aimed for the bag, he had the superior flight capability. Anyhow, his slip up still gave Game & Watch the chance to be the hero to stop the villains.

With a jump aided by his team of temporary firemen, Game and Watch had an impressive leap off the tall building, but before his arc reach the point of descent he pulled a shaded parachute that matched his ‘skin’. He equipped his bug spray and began to pump as quickly as he could behind him to give his light fall a bit more momentum. It hardly matched the speed of either the winged Koopa or Rush, but he at least had some sort of means to catch up with them. The distance he travelled overall was about half of what the other two had made prior to his action.

Hah, seems that Mega Man's slingshot maneuver manage to score big from retrieving the surprisingly soft stolen goods from the abnormal baddies of nature's... failure? Anyways, with that bag secured; Mega Man had something else in mind, there was no way he was going to let these two crooks slip away without having to interrogate on where are the stolen goods and why they try to take them in the first place. Seeing that he was fairly far from the monsters, Rush's distance between them was enough to actually get the two while they were still running-- "Rush, sick 'em b--... Wait, Rush? What are you doing...?" He said, looking over to the robotic canine who made his way to Amaterasu in order to see if she was okay. His constant whimpering implied that he wished that he could treat her wounds, but the fact that he wasn't a medical robot unlike Mega Man's sister Roll; he was currently useless. So yeah, Mega Man opted to not break Rush away from dealing with an injured team mates. Though, that doesn't mean that the Blue Bomber of Heroic Excellence will give up the chase just yet. He placed the bag onto his back while looking back at Rush. "Stay with the goddess, Rush--me and Game & Watch will catch those thieves in no time." With that, he darted to where Game & Watch and the thieves were located, going as fast as his bulky blue legs can take him in order to keep up.

There was no possible way that Mega Man will catch them at this pace, especially when they're flying and he isn't. As for Game & Watch, Mega Man watched him being sorta... hot on their trail by pumping that bug spray as fast as his 2-dimensional arms can take them. Even with that old time traveling speed alone, it wouldn't really make much of a difference if Game & Watch caught up or not--knowing those two, they might make the papered hero work into getting them by elevating themselves upward into the sky and out of his reach. To prevent this, Mega Man's entire appearance turned purple while jumping into the air at the same time. He yelled out-- "Time to send this one to the home plate! REBOUND STRIKER!" as a rubber ball materialized in his hand, Mega Man would twist his entire body into a counter-clockwise motion to give this ball both speed and power. As that happened, the boy unleashed a menacing-looking fast ball that rocketed towards the dynamic duo.

If this rubber ball hits, then the impact will not only damage either the Goomba or the Koopa greatly; but it'll send the ball straight into the night sky, probably never to be seen again. However, if it fails to reach it's mark; then the ball will be making it's way out of Brightwing Lane while losing speed in the process due to it's long traveling distance.

The ink from the remainder of Amaterasu’s vine snare sprayed the Goomba straight in the face which caused the foe temporary blindness and a bit of damage, but considering he wasn’t the one who was steering the two in the air it wasn’t much of a hindrance. The duo continued to fly off to get some distance from Megaman’s flying craft though after searching back for a second or two it was apparent that the robotic boy and his canine companion were no longer an issue.

The Goomba had a good laugh after squinting the rest of the ink out of his eyes as he looked back at what was left of the resistance brigade. A lone paper-like man floating gently pursuing them with nothing more than an air pump and a parachute. He nudged his ally as he continued his hearty laugh. “Look, they all gave up. Now we just got a newspaper tumbling through the wind left to bother us!” he joked as the turtle twisted his head to see what his partner was talking about.

With the two of them completely distracted, they had no clue that Megaman had launch some kind of ball like projectile and it nailed them both. The impact caused the winged Koopa to drop his partner and his entire body retreated to the inside of his shell to brace himself for the rough landing. The Goomba also went into a state of freefall, but since he didn’t have any shell to retreat to he could only brace for the landing the best way he could, by doing nothing.

Both the enemies split further and further from each other as they continued to fall. Luckily for the Goomba there was a building not too far down for him to land on, but the impact caused him to become a bit too dazed to rebel. The Para Troopa was not as lucky, since his shell nearly skid against the side of the building that his brown comrade had hit. His shell made an indentation against the streets below, but he too was too dazed by the landing to do anything.

As Amaterasu swung into a fall, it was lucky she had temporarily stopped mid-fall to resist damage with shorter altitude, or it would have hurt much more than it had. She landed on her front paws, but tumbled forwards, somersaulting a few times to then land face-up on her back, all four paws relaxed as the hung from her legs, her ears were bent as they were pressed against her skull and the floor. The canine let off a groan and sigh before quickly turning her body to stand on her feet, able to faintly feel the presence of her flaming Divine Instrument float above her back that was naked to the human eye. She shook her white fur about, as if to remove both the dirt from her fluffy, snow coat, and also to remove what annoying injury she may have taken. Luckily she felt nothing extremely painful. Her front paw felt a bit hurt, but the pain would fade soon enough. The deity lifted the paw, licking over it once, and placed it back down. That would be enough, she needed to catch up to-

She heard something familiar to a blast of a rocket toward her. Amaterasu lifted her head in alarm, only to see that it was just Rush, the blue mechanical one's canine companion. He appeared to be concerned for the Goddess, which in turn made a small wolfy smile perk up with her ears, her tail wagging about when the other approach. She gave off a joyful bark, giving that her condition was perfectly well and she appreciated the robotic dog's help. She left a grateful lick on Rush's nuzzle, barking again for his attention as she faced beck to see their enemies plummet. The turtle was at reach now at ground level. The Goddess pawed Rush once before she quickly took off running toward it.

[Mr. Game & Watch]

As luck would have it, Megaman handed G&W his victory. The two villains were shot out of the air, so they were both easy pickings and considering the distance between the Goomba and him, he doubted Megaman would be able to reach the brown mushroom before he did. However, the speed at which he was moving at did not inspire confidence, so he had to think of a way to get closer faster.

Mr. Game & Watch released his parachute so that he could descend faster once again, though he angled himself in such a way so that he was falling diagonally. The light weight of his body caused his descent to be slow enough that he could time his next parachute pull at the just the right moment to land gently on the rooftop of the building the Goomba fell onto.

Nothing filled G&W with more joy than an easily handed victory such as this one. He unleashed a laugh in such a way that it would make any alarm clock’s buzzer envious. He quickly waddled over to the body of the thief with a flat chair readily in hand just in case the thing was still kicking. When the purp made no movements, G&W slung him over his shoulder and began to walk off with the criminal. The other two could no doubt handle the lone Koopa, he was obviously the sidekick so the others could claim his small reward while he got the true spoils of victory.

Excellent job on Mega Man's part, he manage to grab this bull by the horns as his Rebound Striker directly knocked the both of them all the way to the ground. It was nice to know that Mega Man's crime fighting skills was put to good use, it was even better that he didn't have to kill anybody in order to conserve peace throughout the Life Sphere! However, that doesn't mean that the Blue Bomber wasn't finished with this job. Oh no--He also have a full intention of actually interrogating these two wannabe thieves in order to find the rest of the missing items. If these things were as valuable to where the Goomba and Para-Troopa kept on returning here, then they must have a secret hideout... Mega Man can only hope that their hideout is within the Life Sphere itself. 

Rush felt relieved that the goddess is actually alright other than suffering from any sort of injury. As he got a kiss... or in this case, lick from her, the robotic canine fell head over heals as he went into a Cloud 9 Daze; only to be interrupted by his master.  "Rush, is Amaterasu alright?" Mega Man asked, receiving a nod and a bark from the robotic dog. "Good, I really don't want anyone to get hurt from this mission..." He sighed in relief as he watches Game and Watch reached the unconscious fungus in the process. Well, that's one enemy that Mega Man doesn't have to watch over. Even though that Goomba is the brains of the duo, the robotic boy knew that he has to contain the both of them in order to get the answers he wanted.

Instead of going to where the Goomba and 2-Dimensional figure was located, the boy made his way down to where the grounded Troopa has fallen, having Rush and Amaterasu following by just to assist the Blue Bomber. Approaching the Para-Koopa, the young male brought out his Buster and change his entire body back into the regular iconic color that his world knows him by. He would aim the arm cannon towards the Koopa and said-- "Alright, I think you and your friend has a lot of explaining to do ever since we've been getting reports of burglary across this peaceful town. I hope you have any ideas on who are you working for, where are other missing items and why are you stealing them?"

With the two criminals either being captured or so out of their minds that they couldn’t do anything to rebel, they were easy pickings for the three smash brothers. The Goomba was easily carried off by the black as night 2-D fighter since he was still unconscious from the impact with the roof. The Para-Troopa was being approached by the other two aligned heroes.

When Rock questioned the shelled criminal, his head poked out of his red coloured mobile home to investigate. Given that he was surrounded, in no condition to fight, and didn’t have enough time or space to fly away, any chance at him successfully rebelling were very slim. His beaked face couldn’t help but smirk at the situation.

“Ha, did you really think the two of US were enough to cause this big of a stir. If we could barely handle to escape from you guys, what makes you think the police couldn’t catch us? One of us doesn’t even have arms for Koopa’s sake! That sack is filled with nothing, but fluff and cotton. You lose heroes!” With that, his head plopped back into his shell.

As G&W began to wander off with his prize, a familiar looking flying clown vehicle began to quickly rise over the horizon of the rooftop and loomed over the 2-D man within seconds.



There was no visible driver at the moment, but given the volume of the craft and how much Bowser had stored in a vehicle like it before, how much that was within it was uncertain by anyone from the outer perspective. It did not waste too much time in the area, the pilot obviously knowing of G&W’s jumping capabilities.
