Due to Kula having her hands full with Heat Man, Crystal King had gone off to start his own fight with someone else. He scanned the ring for a potential opponent and eventually set his sights on the small Servbot. The moving cloak wandered over and tapped the little, yellow machine on the head.
The Servbot looked away from the fight he was having with Mr. Game & Watch. “What is it?” He asked grumpily. He was obviously still upset at not entering in the same Section as Tron.
Crystal King wavered in place for a second before splitting into three separate beings, each one staring down at the small figure.
“I desire a fight.” The real Crystal King said (although the Servbot couldn’t tell which one said it). “You think you can beat all three of me at once?”
The Servbot narrowed his eyes and pressed a button on his arm, engulfing him in a white light. Crystal King shielded his eyes from the white light, and when he looked again, he found himself staring at a thick, blue, giant leg.
Curiously, the three Crystal Kings looked up and found a ten-foot Servbot staring down at them. Said huge Servbot pulled a huge mallet into the air and swung horizontally, striking all three Crystal Kings at the same time. This destroyed both clones instantly and sent the real Crystal King flying headfirst into a turnbuckle.
His job done, the Servbot returned to his normal size and continued his fight with Mr. Game & Watch.
In the meantime, Ace was having a bit of difficulty trying to avoid Mary’s constant barrage of attacks. After hitting on her when she first entered, Ace hadn’t been given a chance to retaliate any of Mary’s attacks due to her being so angry.
“Now I know how Bryan Fury felt in the first tournament after he hit on King.” Ace thought as Mary kicked him in the head, sending him sprawling out on the canvas.
Once Ace was on the ground, Mary was on top of him, punching him in the face several times.
“This is what you get for hitting on a taken woman!” Mary shouted as she continued to attack the patchwork-clad mercenary.
“Okay, I think you’ve had your fun.” Nei said as she came over. “Yes, I know he can be persistent, but you’ve been doing this ever since you got into the arena.”
“Five more minutes?” Mary asked.
“I’m afraid not.” Nei shook her head.
“Fine.” Mary sighed as she got to her feet.
(Announcer’s Booth)
“Ouch. Looks like Ace is going to be sporting some VERY unsightly bruises for the next few days.” SSBFreak noted.
“Well, he DID ask for it.” Tinyrocket shrugged. “He should have known that Mary’s Terry’s girl.”
“He has a point.” Unknown1 agreed. “He walked right into that one.”
“I guess so.” SSBFreak nodded. “Well, taking our eyes off of that for a moment, Trident seems to be holding off Andrew pretty well.”
“Yeah. I didn’t think it was possible to counter a bayonet like that.” Unknown1 nodded.
“Well, what did you guys expect? He’s got a pitchfork on his arm.” Tinyrocket pointed out. “That Atlantean has more maneuverability than most of the other fighters in the tournament.”
“Five bucks says Trident eliminates him.” SSBFreak said with a smirk.
“You’re on.” Unknown1 responded.
(Hotel; Lobby)
“Hello, Mr. O’Chunks.” The receptionist behind the front desk of the lobby greeted. “What can I do for you?”
“I was told ye ‘ave a letter fer meh, lass.” The large, bearded fighter that was O’Chunks pointed out.
“Oh! Yes, I do, as a matter of fact!” The woman replied as she ducked below the counter. “Let’s see…Where did that…Here!” She rose back up from below the counter with a letter in her hand. “I turned my back for a minute and when I looked again, this was on the counter.”
O’Chunks accepted the letter and looked at it. It was indeed addressed to him, but he didn’t recognize the handwriting. “Thank ye, lass.” He said politely. “I’ll just be takin’ meh leave, now.”
With that, O’Chunks left the lobby and started walking down the hallway of the dome, whistling a tune. As he walked, O’Chunks ripped open his letter and took out the piece of paper that was on it. He stopped walking when he read what was on it.
“Come to this address in the hotel right away.” O’Chunks read. “Alone.”
It was then that O’Chunks felt something else in the envelope. He curiously reached in and pulled the object out, but once he got a good look at what he was now holding, his heartbeat quickened.
He was holding a pair of glasses, the lens cracked in a couple of places. He recognized them instantly.
“Nastasia!” O’Chunks thought as he turned in place, staring at the doorway leading back into the hotel.
Although he had a feeling he would hate himself for doing it later, O’Chunks raced off towards the hotel.
(The Arena)
Ky pushed Percival away and clashed with Roy for what seemed like the twentieth time. Percival was quick to recover from the attack and charged into battle again, slashing at Ky and Roy at the same time.
Things had pretty much escalated into a three-way sword-fight during the past few minutes. Zero would have joined the fray, but Adam McCloud was keeping him busy enough as it was.
Roy swung his sword again, hoping to do damage. Unfortunately, Ky had the sense to duck underneath the blade and Percival was too far back to hit. Ky took the opportunity to kick at Roy and send him flying away.
The redhead knight landed on his back, and when he looked up, he saw May standing on a turnbuckle.
“BANZAI!!!” May screamed as she leapt off the turnbuckle and put her anchor beneath her.
“Oh, crap!” Roy shouted.
Doing best to ignore the sound of May’s anchor landing and Roy screaming in pain, Benimaru shoved his fist at Bakuryu, but the young ninja was quick to avoid the attack, shoving his foot into Benimaru’s stomach. Benimaru stepped back for a second, but quickly recovered.
“Okay. You’re really asking for this.” Benimaru said. “Electrigger!”
Shoving his fist forward, Benimaru engulfed his hand with electricity. Although it took Bakuryu by surprise, it did little to stop him. In the blink of an eye, Bakuryu was behind Benimaru.
“Catch ya later, loser!” Bakuryu taunted as he picked up the surprised Benimaru and hurled him over the ropes and out of the arena. The audience watched as Benimaru fell headlong about ten feet before vanishing into a portal.
Benimaru landed in Crackdown. Unfortunately, he landed right in the middle of an all-out riot between a Mexican gang and a lone cop. We’ll leave it up to you to figure out what happened.
(Announcer’s Booth)
“Ewwwww!” Tinyrocket cringed.
“Don’t worry about him folks!” SSBFrak assured. “Once he arrives back at the dome, our crack team of doctors will restore him to health!”
(The Arena)
Mudman landed on his side, a victim to one of E. Honda’s headbutts. The tribal chief slowly stood to his feet and looked around, wondering if he could have better luck with anyone else. So far, he had been beaten on by pretty much everyone in the ring. The only real exceptions were Mr. Game & Watch and the Servbot, whom were too busy fighting each other to really notice him.
Setting his sights on the two smallest fighters in the ring, Mudman made his way over.
Mr.Game & Watch rolled to the side to avoid a small stream of fire producing from the Servbot’s mouth. Once the 2-dimensional figure was on his feet, Mr. Game & Watch pulled out a hammer and held a sign above his head. The sign above his head read ‘9’.
“Oh, boy! That Servbot had better watch out!” Unknown1 told the audience. “When Game & Watch has a 9 on that sign, the power is enough to match Jigglypuff’s Sleep special move!”
Servbot saw the attack coming and rolled to the side, while Game & Watch swung his hammer. Unfortunately, Mudman had chosen that time to interfere and unexpectedly too the attack to the torso. The tribal chief was surged with electricity for a few seconds before getting launched out of the arena. Mudman fell into the elimination vortex.
Mudman landed in Mario Party 8, in the middle of a card battle between Blooper and Hammer Bro. Hammer Bro. Walked over to a bench and pulled a card up. Suddenly, a loud rumbling was heard. Mudman looked towards the entranc eof the stadium he had landed in and saw a small army of Chain Chomps rushing him.
“Criminal Upper!” Cody shouted as he thrust his fist upwards, creating a small twister. Lillith didn’t see the attack coming and found herself getting lifted into the air. The purple-haired girl landed on her back roughly and saw Cody standing over her.
Thinking quickly, Lillith shoved her foot into Cody’s stomach, making him back away from her and allowing her to get up.
“You’re pretty quick.” Lillith noted. “But do you think you have the speed to keep up with me?”
“Hey, I caught you by surprise there, didn’t I?” Cody asked with a smirk. “Besides, you’re not THAT fast. I’ve fought Rolento before. THAT’S fast.”
Lillith narrowed her eyes. “You’re asking for it.” She warned.
Meanwhile, Shun Di and Chin Gensai were ‘fighting’, which mainly consisted of completely missing their attacks and letting out the occasional drunken belch. All in all, it was a pretty sad sight.
Suddenly, Mickey Rodgers flew backwards and crashed into them, knocking them away. Mickey, unfazed, got up and rushed Nei again.
Shun and Chin ended up gprawled out on he canvas, right at the feet of Cody and Lillith.
The pruple-haired bat-girl and the former hero of Metro City looked at the fallen drunks, at each other, then back at the old men again.
“Let’s get these guys out of here.” Cody said as he grabbed Shun Di.
“I’m with you.” Lillith nodded as she picked up Chin.
It took them a bit of effort, but Cody and Lillith managed to remove both old drunks from the arena (where they landed on a desert road in Crusin’ World), then continued with their fight.
Roy swung his sword again. Ky dodged the blow, but the attack was a lot closer than usual this time. As Ky backed off, Percival stepped in and swung at the blonde swordsman, but Ky was just as quick and held his sword behind him, parrying the blow. Ky quickly shoved his foot backwards, but all he succeeded in doing was kick into Percival’s body armour and hurt his foot.
“See? I thought ahead.” Percival said with a smirk as he pushed past Ky and swung at Roy.
“This is bad.” Roy mused to himself. “I’ve been wasting too much energy trying to fight off these guys at once. I need to finish this fight, now.”
Percival attempted another swing at Roy, but Ky intercepted and stopped the attack.
“That was for the cheap shot!” Ky shouted.
“I’m TRYING to get an elimination, here!” Percival snapped. “Just stay back and lecture me when I eliminate this guy!”
Ky looked over Percival’s shoulder and saw Roy starting to glow yellow, then white. “You know what? Fine. We’ll discuss this later.” He said as he stepped about ten feet back. “By all means, continue.”
“Thank you.” Percival said as he turned around.
Roy let out a primal roar and lashed a fully-charged sword at the canvas near Percival’s feet. A huge explosion erupted from the spot where Roy’s sword struck, rocketing Percival clear out of the arena.
“Shall we continue?” Ky asked.
“It’ll be easier without both of you, that’s for sure.” Roy said as he readied himself.
Percival was deposited in World of Warcraft. Several Orcs surrounded him and beat him to death with clubs.
Heat Man jumped out of the way of an ice slash from Kula Diamond and clenched his fist, igniting it in fire. The short robot master hurled a ball of fire at the blue-haired girl, but Kula was quick to whip out a shield of ice and block the flaming projectile.
As soon as she was certain that Heat Man’s attack had stopped, Kula lunged forward in a flying kick. The attack was a success and Kula landed a direct blow to Heat Man’s head and made him stagger back a couple of steps.
“You’re quick, human.” Heat Man said with a smirk. “Did they teach you those moves in NESTS?”
Kula’s eyes snapped open. “What?!” She asked.
“I know about NESTS. Dr. Wily is very familiar with that syndicate.” Heat Man explained, his smirk getting bigger. “So did that ‘Foxy’ woman teach you those moves before she got stabbed through the back?”
“Shut up…” Kula whispered, starting to shudder at the bad memories of NESTS.
“Or made it was Candy! You know? The robot that DIED while protecting you from falling into Earth’s atmosphere?” Heat Man laughed.
“Shut up!” Kula shouted, getting less and less like herself with every passing second.
“Or maybe it was that Igniz guy? The one that USED you and eventually led one of your ‘mother-figures’ to her death?” Heat Man cackled.
“Shut up!!” Kula shouted, even louder, collapsing to her knees in a sobbing heap. After a couple of seconds, a low and uncharacteristic growl escaped from her throat. Kula looked up, but saw Heat Man frozen in a block of ice, still in a laughing position. Kula looked to her left and saw Crystal King just finishing his frozen breath special move.
“Well, that takes care of ONE obstacle.” Crystal King mused.
Kula roared and jumped at Crystal King, grabbing him by the robe and pulling him close.
“HE IS MINE TO ELIMINATE AND MINE ALONE!!!” Kula screamed in fury as she hurled Crystal King out of the ring with all of her might.
Crystal King landed in Banjo-Tooie, on the frozen mountain level. Chilly Willy started bombing him with frozen ice stones.
(KOF Locker Room)
The room stared at Kula’s display in the ring, slack-jawed.
“I’ve…Never seen Kula that mad.” K’ noted.
“That robot must have said something to her that made her snap.” Ralf scratched his head.
(Dome; Restaurant)
The restaurant owner sighed as he ducked under his counter. “Not again.” He thought.
Birdie wrapped his huge hand around the smaller head of the Koopinator and picked him up. Birdie hurled the dark koopatrol to the side, sending him flying into a wall. The Koopinator quickly realized that the spikes on the back of his shell were keeping him stuck to the wall.
Seeing his opponent immobilized, Birdie smirked and walked over. “Not so tough now, are you?” He asked.
The Koopinator narrowed his red eyes and pushed himself off the wall, launching himself into Birdie, kicking him at the same time.
“I could have done that as soon as I hit the wall.” The Koopinator said simply. “I was just waiting for you to get close enough for me to do that.”
“Okay, so you’re sneakier than I expected.” Birdie said as he whipped out his chain. “Let’s see if this’ll help at all.”
Birdie snapped the chain at the armour-clad koopa, but the Koopinator was quick to back off. “I think not.” He said as he jumped onto a table and leapt off.
Taken aback by the quickness of his opponent, Birdie took a hard kick to the face, making him stagger back. The Koopinator landed on his feet, then rushed forward, the spike on his helmet first. Birdie took the attack to the stomach and found himself getting pushed into the wall, getting the wind knocked out of him.
“Tell me what you were following that woman for!” The Koopinator roared darkly.
“My partner’s probably already got to her by now.” Birdie chuckled. “I think I did a good job of stalling you, if I do say so myself.”
The Koopinator growled, knowing that Birdie was right. “You’re nothing but scum.’ He said as he punched Birdie in the face hard, finally knocking him out.
Standing up and leaving his defeated opponent, the Koopinator turned to the entrance doorway. However, what he saw made him freeze in his tracks.
“What the heck happened here?!” Dee Jay asked as he looked around.
Gears started turning in the Koopinator’s head. This man was from the same node as the one he had just defeated, so if anyone knew anything about something involving people like Birdie, someone like he would know.
In these circumstances, Dee Jay would make a good ally. The Koopinator stepped forward, grabbed Dee Jay by the arm and started pulling him down the hallway. “Come with me.” He said.
“Hey! I still need to grab a snack!” Dee Jay said.
“Something tells me that’s going to become the least of your worries.”
(The Arena)
Mickey Rogers flew headfirst into Earthquake (it was unknown if the giant actually felt anything, as he was too busy fighting of Kagemaru), a victim to another of Nei’s throws.
“Man. For an elf chick, she sure hits pretty hard.” Mickey muttered to himself as he rushed Nei again.
The aqua-haired elf simply stood in her stance, shaking her head. “Please stop this.” She warned as she held up her hands and blocked Mickey’s next punch. “You’re just going to tire yourself out.”
“Better than admitting defeat!” Mickey retorted. “This is my big chance at a comeback! I don’t want to blow it, now!”
“I’m afraid that you’re not making it easy for yourself.” Nei said. “If you keep this up, you’ll drain all of your energy in a matter of minutes!”
“If that’s true, then what makes you think that you’re not going to lose your energy as well?” Mickey quizzed as he threw another punch.
“Blocking punches uses less energy than throwing them.” Nei informed as she continued to block. “By the time you get worn out, I’ll still have most of my stamina.
As much as Mickey didn’t want to admit it, Nei was right. Even now, he was beginning to lose steam. Nei saw the fatigue and thrust her palm into his stomach, knocking the wind out of him.
“I apologize, but I have to finish the fight.” Nei said as she picked up Mickey and threw him over the ropes and out of the ring.
Mickey landed in Zelda: Twilight Princess. Several boar-riding moblins trampled him while chasing Link.
Nei, seeing her opponent eliminated, nodded once and turned around to find another fight.
Suddenly, Mr. Game & Watch flew over her head and out of the ring, beeping several times.
“And stay out!!” The Servbot shouted, putting a hammer away and shaking his fist at the falling black figure.
Mr. Game & Watch landed in Suikoden 1. Mistaking him for an enemy, Tir McDohl and his party jumped him and started beating him with their weapons.
Roy and Ky clashed again. Ky started forcing Roy towards the ropes around the arena, but Roy was managing to hold off the blonde-haired swordsman as best as he could. The two almost tripped over the prone body of G. Done and barely avoided Heat Man fleeing from a psychotically angry Kula, but other than that, the swordfight had gone almost uninterrupted.
Ky slashed at Roy once he felt that he gotten close enough, but the redhead knight saw the attack coming and ducked underneath the blade. However, Ky had also anticipated this and gave Roy a kick to the chest while he was down. This knocked Roy backwards and made him land on his behind.
Seizing his chance, Ky lashed out at Roy a couple of times while he was down, but the young knight was lucky enough to block the attacks and ward Ky off long enough to get back to his feet.
“For someone so young, you’re pretty skilled with that sword.” Ky noted.
“I’ve had a lot of practice.” Roy nodded.
“We’re been fighting for a long time, now.” Ky said. “It’s about time I finish this!”
With that, Ky lunged forward in an attempt to run Roy through. However, Roy leaned to the side and Ky’s sword struck nothing but air. Roy used the time Ky was distracted to grab his arm and throw him from the ring and into an elimination portal.
Ky landed in Kingdom Hearts 2, where he made quick work of Xaldin (Sora later started begging Ky to teach him how to fight like that).
Shortly after Roy and Ky had stepped over him, G. Done had managed to get to his feet and continued his bout with Hayate. The streetfighter jumped back as Hayate swung his huge boomerang-like weapon, barely missing him.
“You’re pretty determined.” G. Done noted.
“My node needs the elimination!” Hayate pointed out. “Last year, we only managed one, and Rosa got eliminated right afterwards!”
“Hey, my node could use the elimination, too.” G. Done stated as he threw a punch, which Hayate blocked.
“But you guys managed to get FIVE eliminations last year!” Hayate growled as he swung his boomerang, striking G. Done in the head. “My node needs it more!”
“That may be so, but I’m not gonna admit defeat to someone like you!” G. Done said as he rushed Hayate and started throwing punches.
Seeing the attacks coming, Hayate held up his boomerang and started blocking the attacks. However, after about the fifth punch, G. Done managed to get lucky and slipped a punch through Hayate’s defense, striking him in the stomach.
This took Hayate by surprise and made him drop his guard. G. Done saw his chane and took it, kicking Hayate in the chest and sending him tumbling over the ropes.
Hayate landed in Inuyasha, where Sango saw him as a rip-off and beat him down with her own gigantic boomerang.
Adam McCloud, the first representative from the Fallout Shelter, was holding out surprisingly well against Zero. The two were clashing with their beam swords several times and they both countered potential attacks from their opponents. Even still, the two had also managed to slip in a few hits as well. Adam had a few cuts and tears in his outfit, while Zero’s armour was sporting a few dents.
Zero leapt back as Adam swung down, then sprang forward with a horizontal slash. Luckily, Adam saw the attack coming and rolled to the side, but about three inches were cut off of the corner of his cape in the process.
After standing up, Adam looked over his cape and narrowed his eyes at Zero. “You realize how much it’ll cost for me to fix that?!” He asked.
“Not really, but then again, it’s not going to be very cheap for me to get these dents in my armour fixed, either.” Zero noted.
“Well, then maybe I should just shut you down so you won’t have to think about it.” Adam replied as he held out his hand, firing a ball of electricity from it.
Zero could sense the power in the electric orb and made avoiding it his number one priority. Zero slid underneath the orb of electricity and delivered a hard kick to the TFS resident’s stomach, knocking him backwards and making him topple over.
Suddenly, everyone in the ring heard a shot ring out. Zero and Adam looked up and saw that a pellet had struck a turnbuckle. If either of the two had been standing upright at the time, the pellet would have struck them. The two looked in the direction the shot had come from and saw Trident and Andrew fighting nearby. It became clear that Andrew had taken a shot at Trident, but the Atlantean had dodged the shot.
Narrowing their eyes, the two swordsmen stood up and walked over to the interrupting fight and interfered, taking both Andrew and Trident by surprise. As Adam grabbed Andrew and threw him over the ropes, Zero did the same with Trident.
Andrew and Trident landed in Final Fight. Andrew got slaughtered almost instantly, but Trident managed to last the full ten minutes.
(Hotel; Twelfth Floor)
“He’s here.” Vega said.
“Send him in.” Bison replied.
Vega opened up the door to the room they were in. The instant the door was partly opened, a furious O’Chunks stormed in, pushing the door open with amazing force and slamming Vega into the wall.
“Where is she?!” O’Chunks shouted at Bison.
“My, my, my. Is that the proper way to make an introduction?” Bison asked with a smirk as he turned from the window he was looking out of.
“Where’s Nastasia?!” O’Chunks repeated as he held up the glasses he had received. “These are hers! The lass never goes anywhere without ‘em! Now what did ye do with her?!”
“O-O’Chunks?” A voice asked.
O’Chunks spun to the right and saw Demitri Maximov and Ash Crimson pulling the small, tied-up figure of Nastasia into the room. Nastasia was wearing a blindfold instead of her glasses, and O’Chunks knew that meant that she was unable to use her mind-controlling abilities, as she needed to see to do anything.
“Nastasia!” O’Chunks said as he stepped forward. “Are ye hurt?!”
“Don’t worry, you overgrown oaf.” Demitri said with a vile smirk. “We haven’t harmed a hair on her head.”
“Not YET, anyway.” Ash added.
“And she’ll remained unharmed so long as you do what we tell you to.” Demitri finished.
O’Chunks looked at Bison, whose smirk looked ten times as dark and evil as the others.
“I’ve seen your strength, and I must say that I could use someone like you on our side.” Bison supplied. “However, I knew that you wouldn’t come willingly, so I was forced to use your lady friend there as leverage. Maximov is right, though. If you agree to do what we tell you, she will remain unharmed.”
O’Chunks looked at Nastasia. Whenever he needed help on something, Nastasia was always the one to provide help and get him on the right track. That was one of the main reason he liked her so much.
“Don’t do it, O’Chunks!” Nastasia said. “These guys can’t be trusted! They’re no better than Dimentio!”
“Crimson, would you mind?” Demitri asked the person helping him hold Nastasia up.
“Not at all.” Ash said with a twisted smirk as he ignited his hands in green fire, surging the energy through the petite, blue hostage.
Nastasia tried to hold it in, but only lasted two seconds before letting out a scream of agony. O’Chunks watched the scene in horror, having never seen Nastasia so helpless. Nastasia had always been strong and hardly ever let emotions control her. Now, she was in desperate pain, and although O’Chunks knew he would regret it later, he just couldn’t stand seeing Nastasia in such peril.
“STOP! STOP!” O’Chunks pleaded. “I’ll do whatever ye want! Just don’t hurt her!!”
Bison snapped his fingers and Ash stopped his assault on Nastasia. Nastasia, smoke rising from her body, took several deep breaths to help herself recover.
Even though she was wearing a blindfold, Nastasia still looked over her shoulder as Demitri and Ash were hauling her off, glancing in the general direction O’Chunks was in.
“O’Chunks, why are you doing this?” Nastasia thought. “I’m not worth it.”
(The Arena)
“Can’t ya take a joke, lady?!?!” Heat Man screamed as he ran from a furious Kula Diamond, whom was constantly throwing blasts of ice at the Robot Master.
Ever since Heat Man had make those numerous cracks about NESTS, Kula hadn’t given him any breathing space and continued to assault him with every form of ice attack she had. Heat Man found it a miracle that he hadn’t been hit yet.
After eliminating Hayate, G. Done had decided to pick a fight with E. Honda, and the two seemed to be evenly matched. E. Honda grappled G. Done and slammed him into the canvas, then leapt into the air and landed directly on top of him.
G. Done groaned as he got to his feet. His biggest weakness in this battle was that E. Honda far outclassed him in stamina. Eventually, if this kept up, E. Honda would beat him without much of a problem. G. Done needed to come up with a way to outsmart the huge sumo and eliminated him before he wore himself out trying to fight him off.
The streetfighter shoved his foot at E. Honda’s head, hoping to stun him. E. Honda grabbed G. Done’s foot and spun it, flipping his opponent onto the mat again. As G. Done got to his feet again, H. Honda lunged forward in his infamous Hundred-Hand-Slap.
Although G. Done tried blocking the attack, E. Honda managed to get it through and started the assault of palm strikes. G. Done was hit countless times every second and received several sharp blows to the head. When Honda finished, G. Done collapsed to the canvas.
The large sumo wrestler stood over G. Done triumphantly. “Impressive try, but unfortunately, it looks like I’ve won.” Honda said.
E. Honda was about to pick up G. Done to throw him from the ring when Heat Man flew past in a flaming rocket, colliding with the large sumo. However, Heat Man had enough momentum and speed that he actually picked up E. Honda and carried him along with him. Heat Man saw that he was approaching the ropes, so he turned to his left and continued trying to escape from Kula. Honda wasn’t so lucky and flew over the ropes and out of the ring.
Honda landed in Crash Bandicoot. The game’s main character started jumping on his head.
Seeing that he was still in the ring, G. Done slowly stood up and wondered what happened.
That’s when Kula ran right into him. This knocked both fighters to the canvas.
Kula jumped to her feet and glared daggers into G. Done’s eyes. “What’s wrong with you?! I’m going to lose that robot, now!!” She roared.
“We’re in an arena!” G. Done insisted. “You’re not going to lose him!”
“But someone else might eliminate him!” Kula shouted. “Let me through! I need to destroy that robot!!”
G. Done raised an eyebrow at Kula’s extremely-out-of-character attitude, but wasn’t given enough time to give a reply.
“I SAID MOVE!!!” Kula roared as she grabbed G. Done, pitched him out of the arena and resumed running after Heat Man.
G. Done landed in Army Men. Riff blew him up with his bazooka.
Lillith looked around the arena at the fighters left for a challenge. Blue Mary was still beating Ace down, although May was skipping in to help her. Kula was still wildly chasing Heat Man around the arena and didn’t look like she was going to stop anytime soon. Zero and Adam were still fighting each other with their beam swords and weren’t letting anything interrupt them. Roy tried to step in and got his cape cut in half for his troubles.
Lillith suddenly saw Kagemaru fighting off Earthquake and figured that he could use a bit of help. Hovering off the ground a couple of inches, Lillith floated over.
Unfortunately, Lillith was across the arena, and was taking a while to get across to help Kagemaru out. Because of this, Kagemaru was forced to fight off the huge mountain of lard that was Earthquake for a little while longer.
Kagemaru rolled to the side as Earthquake slammed his weapon into the canvas. Jumping to his feet, Kagemaru leapt at Earthquake and kicked him in the chest, forcing him towards the ropes a couple of steps.
“A lucky shot.” Earthquake grumbled. “Let’s see if you can do that again!”
“Gladly.” Kagemaru said as he jumped.
Lillith arrived at Kagemaru’s side just as the blue-clad ninja kicked Earthquake over the ropes, sending him tumbling down into an elimination portal (where he landed in Ecco the Dolphin and created the biggest tidal wave in record history).
“Oh, you just eliminated him.” Lillith noted once she arrived.
“Yep. He thought he could beat me, and that was his downfall.” Kagemaru replied.
“Well, THAT sucks. I came across the arena to help you fight him.” Lillith sulked. “Now it just seemed pointless for me to do it.”
“I appreciate the thought, but unfortunately, you came at the wrong time.” Kagemaru said. “You’ll just have to find something else to do, then.”
Lillith shrugged. “Okay.” She said as she gave Kagemaru an uppercut and sent him out of the ring.
Kagemaru landed in Ecks vs. Sever, where he easily downed both of the game’s main characters.
May whistled a cheery tune as she climbed on top of one of the turnbuckles and waited for Blue Mary to punch Ace a couple more times before leaping off.
“WHEEE!!!!” May said gleefully as she place her anchor under her again. Mary saw her coming down and backed off, leaving nothing to prevent May from doing the world’s hardest cannonball onto Ace’s stomach.
“I appreciate the help, but why did you chose to help me pound him in the first place?” Mary asked. “Did he hit on you, too?”
“No. I just thought that it would be fun to beat him up.” May replied. “It looked like you were having fun, anyway.”
Mary was about to reply when Falco Lombardi shot past in a Falco Phantasm, running straight into Mary and taking her to another part of the arena. This left May to fight/beat on Ace alone.
“Oh, pooh.” May pouted. “There goes my ally.”
Ace slowly stood to his feet, his head throbbing and his mind wondering what he had done to deserve all of this. Sure, he had made a stupid decision to hit on a woman whom was already taken, but that didn’t explain why the pirate girl with the immensely-huge weapon chose to jump in and start whacking him as well.
“Okay. No more of this nice guy act.” Ace told himself. “Now that my mind is set, I’ll turn around and eliminate both those girls for doing this to me.”
Ace turned around, but before he could take one step, May swung her huge anchor and clobbered Ace in the face, sending the mercenary spiraling out of the ring.
Ace landed in Dead or Alive: Extreme Beach Volleyball. He promptly died of nosebleed.
Falco came to a screeching halt and sent Mary, whom he was still pushing around, flying into a turnbuckle. The blonde policewoman growled as she got to her feet. “What’s wrong with you?!” She snapped at the avian.
“Hey, I haven’t had much of a chance to fight anyone yet, mainly due to that psychotic ice girl chasing the flaming robot around.” Falco replied. Kula chased Heat Man behind him to emphasize his point. “I just needed a fight and figured that you’d do.”
Mary cracked her knuckles. “Sounds like bird-boy’s got a death wish.” She said as she stepped forward.
“I afraid it’s YOU whom are out of your league.” Falco said with a smirk as he drew his blaster and fired several times.
Mary anticipated this and showed an amazing amount of reflexes and avoided the lasers, although the last one got close and singed the edge of her top. The instant she knew she was in the clear, Mary slid forward and kicked Falco in the stomach. As the birdman was distracted, Mary jumped to her feet and leapt at Falco, wrapping her legs around his head and knocking him to the canvas.
“You’re…More…Persistent…Than I…Thought!” Falco grunted as he wriggled himself free from Mary’s grip and pushed her off of him. Mary landed flat on her back, but was quick to get back to her feet again. Mary charged Falco again.
Unfortunately, Falco was even quicker and thrust his knee into Mary’s stomach. Falco quickly followed the attack with a hard kick to the head. This knocked Mary away, but it did little to stop her from continuing onward and jumping at Falco again.
Falco was just too quick for Mary and did a backflip, kicking the airborne Mary at the same time and sending her into the air. Falco leapt into the air after her and sent her flying out of the arena with a kick to the side.
Mary landed in State of Emergency, where she made a record amount of arrests and STILL got beat down within ten minutes.
Back in the arena, Falco landed on his feet gracefully and looked around the ring at the remaining fighters. Zero and Adam had taken a break from their sword fight, but were still eyeing each other just in case the other started attacking again. Roy was standing aside, using a cloth to clean and polish his blade to get it ready for the next wave of fighters. Lillith was floating a few feet away, sitting down in midair to keep herself rested. Nei was breathing a bit hard, but looked alright otherwise. Bakuryu was sitting aside, gathering his strength for the next section. Cody gave a stretch and scratched the back of his head, sporting a couple of bruises. The Servbot, for a lack of something better to do, sat down and started peeling a potato. May took an interest in this and sat down beside him.
Falco stepped back as Kula chased Heat Man past him again. He then looked towards the entrance curtain, awaiting the next wave of fighters to enter.

It’s a Surprise to Me: The voting was pretty one-sided for which fighter to take the top slot. I’m even more surprised because of how people voted for Roy in the LAST tournament.
Super Smashing: All three of the Smash Bros. representatives got at least one elimination, even though Mr. Game & Watch didn’t survive the section.
