*Battleship Halberd has landed halfway up the mountain.*
Metaknight:Keep on guard,the Pirates are already aware that we've arrived and will stop at nothing to kill us.T_T
Rob:OK then...*Hops into The Egg Walker.*
*The team walks up towards the top of Mt. Coronet,oddly without opposition.*
Luigi:It doesn't look like they'll be coming.:D
Darkrai:I'm not so sure....I feel something isn't right... _T
*Eventually they make it to the summit and are about to step onto spear pillar when...*
???:Gyaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh!
*An enormous earthquake occurs,and the sky rumbles with great fury.*
Rob:What was that.o_O
Macy:Don't look at me.
Luigi:Aiyeeeee!!!!!!
MK:That is not reassuring.We have to head forward before it's too late.0_0
*The 5 head onto the spear pillar,only to see a horrifying sight:Palkia,It's eyes blood red,it's body teathered by shackles,and an enormous machine surrounding it.
Darkrai:No! _0
???:Yessss....hahahaha!
*A mechanized man and a Darkrai with green eyes approach from the shadows.
???:I should probably give you the honor of telling my name,I am Weavel,The most powerful of the Space Pirate Generals!
Rob:I thought that was Ridley...o_O
Weavel:HAH! That fool,he has failed invariably,I'm amazed they even keep him around.:P
MK:Enough of this!What do you intend to do with Palkia?!
Darkrai (Green eyed): You couldn't guess?If you fools must know,We intend to control Palkia,in the event we cannot,we shall kill it!
Darkrai (Blue eyed):Fool!You will destroy all of space if you do so!
Weavel:That works out perfectly for us,If we cannot control the universe,no one can!
Macy:Grrr.....*Fires a Missle into Weavel.* You think we're going to take this like sleeping dogs?!
Weavel:Of course not my dear....Hehehehe!*Fires a flurry of battle hammer shots*
*Macy raises the eggwalker's shield and retaliates with the laser cannon,though just after firing Luigi attacks her.*
Macy:What do you think you're doing!
Luigi:*In a strange voice* Going according to plan!*Transforms into a crystalline,Sonic like Figure.*
Rob:He was a fraud all along!Who are you?!
Not Luigi:I am Mephiles!Master of time and destruction!
Macy:Where's Luigi?
Mephiles:Likely at home,reading some silly book!I merely impersonated him!And you fools were too stupid to check.Remember what you Mother said: Don't talk to strangers!
MK:I need not listen to you fool!En Guarde Rogue!*Holds up sword.*
-------------BOSS BATTLE-----------------
WEAVEL,MEPHILES AND DARKRAI.
*Both Darkrais charge shadow ball and throw them at each other,attempting to kill one another.*
Darkrai(BE):You seriously think this plan will work?The will of the rightcheous is stronger than any evil mastermind!
Darkrai(GE): Don't tell me you believe that bile.:lol: I shall show you the error of your ways!
Darkrai(BE):Correction:YOUR ways!*Creates a powerful dark void*
*The green eyed Darkrai Also charges a dark void,launches it,and misses.*
Darkrai(GE):Gah!N-*Is consumed by The Blue eyed Darkrai's Dark void.*
*The Grren eyed one struggles while the Blue eyed Darkrai absorbs it's power until it disentigrates into nothing.*
*Meanwhile Metaknight and Mephiles duel with blades,Metaknight's Galaxia and Mephiles' sword,made from his own essence.*
*Mephiles hears Darkrai's death screams,and is distracted just long enough for Metaknight to strike a lethal stab at the head.*
Mephiles:Gah!*falls onto knees*:x No matter,it is too late for you to save Palkia,You fools have killed me in vain!
MK:There's always a way out of something...*Impales Mephiles once more on the head*
*Metaknight heads over to the Machine,Smashing through it and beginning to cut cables inside the machine.*
*Macy then shoots a blast at the machine*
Weavel:Stop that immediately!*Attempts to fire a battlehammer blast,though is interrupted by Robert Punching the face plate off.*
Robert:Take this slime ball!*Exhales flame into Weavel's helmet,burning his brain*
*Weavel's armorsuit falls limp*
Macy:Thank Goodness!Let's take this machine apart!
*The Quartet destroy component of the machine,just before the last shackle is broken,a cackle is heard,with the last of his strength,Mephiles unleashes a final chaos spear.*
Rob:Mephiles!*Dashes in front of Palkia just in time,but is impaled.*
MetaKnight: *Cuts the last shackle* :o
*Rob drops dead,though Palkia is finally freed*
Palikia:*Looks down and sees Rob,sympathetically,Palkia places it's hand on the spear and pulls it out.*I apologise for this,I can only do one thing in return for all your help....:( *Palkia then places both hands over Rob's body,The jewels in it's shoulder glow,and energy pours from it's hands,it's body becoming grey.*
Rob:*drowsy* hm.....Ugh,what is this,I feel like I can barely contain myself.:x What are you doing?
Palkia:I am not long for this world,I must have someone that can carry on my powers....
Rob:Why me?
Palkia:You innocent child....Do you not get it?You have been witness to many great encounters growing stronger with each,you are one of the few people able to handle such powers.You are a hero of legend!
Rob:Whuh..What!?:o
Palkia:The answers shall come in time.*Palkia looks satisfied,as it's form disentigrates.*
*The group,saddened by Palias loss,sees a celestial light,and are carried about with blinding speed,they are whisked up into the air and land with a thud*
Macy:What now?:/
Darkrai:Silence!*Bows to seemingly nothing,Metaknight follows suit.*
*Macy,Figuring out the situation,ushers Rob to bow*
???:What business dost thine four have with me?
Darkrai:Master.these were the children you chose....
???:Well done Darkrai....Rise!
*The four stand*
???:Hmhmhm....Fine heroes you four are,though There is still one thing we need to do!*4 crystals shoot from the platform the party stands on.*
Rob:What is this!*Finally seeing the creature that stands before them*
???:*The red slits in the creature's green eyes gleam* You are the people to save the world,as the master of space said.Though at this point you are unable to contain, let alone control, your powers.
Macy:I don't have any.:/
???:And that will be fixed as soon as your stasis period begins.
Rob:Is this really necessary?And what about Palkia,by the way?
???:Indeed it is.The dangers you would face at this point would be too great for you to handle,you must grow and become stronger to face them.And Palkia will be reborn,the one you knew merely wished not to let it's power not to go to waste,and of course it felt empathy for you.
Rob:How will putting us in stasis help?
???:All will come in time,or about two human years.*The crystals fill with a breathable liquid,and the 4 soon drift asleep.*
