[color=blue][I]It was raining like mad[/I], that's what I remember; almost ran over a cat in my Skullmobile. I was running out of ideas for new ?Robot Masters?. I?ve created tons of them. Of course, that's what I'm famous for! I remember my first six so well: Cutman, Gutsman, Elecman, Bombman, Iceman, and Fireman. But these days, I've been pressed for ideas. With all these goodie-two-shoes running around, it was especially hard gloat to myself in the mirror. I wasn't feeling too super of a villain--that's for sure.

That's why I retired, I guess. After so many attempts to destroy that infernal Megaman, I decided to just give up--evil's not worth it. I'm too old to spend the rest of my days locked away like the others. Dr. Light was actually surprised by my retirement. Megaman didn't believe me, of course. That's why I opened up my old haunt, Skull Castle to the public.

[IMG]http://therob578.250free.com/ProjectGamer/skull%20castle.jpg[/IMG]

All of my classic Robot Masters on display for the world to see ... my finest idea. Appropriately, only the first floor of the castle is available to the casual visitor. That means, that the living room, display gallery, little cafe I have my Robot Masters working in, and the auditorium ... will all showcase my greatest hits to the public eye. I hope they enjoy the karaoke machine I have installed.

Where was I? Oh, yes. I had to pull over the Skullmobile because it was raining so hard. I decided to stop at a nearby Starbucks (Note to self: potential Robot Master: Coffeeman. Scalding Coffee attack, like Toadman?s Acid Rain attack) to ride out the storm.

Despite the cashier (a grotesquely overweight, slovenly teenage rapscallion, who glared my way frequently) I was able to enjoy my cup of ridiculously overpriced Joe--I tell you, we were able to plunder coffee for only a nickel a pound back in my day. Good coffee too, dagnabit. Bah, I'm going on another tangent. What was I saying--oh yes! I had grown quite accustomed to the stares. I am a celebrity, no less. Oh, if Brightman were around to extinguish their stares sometimes though.

Just as I had begun to drown in a maelstrom of self pity (I really did miss Brightman [IMG]http://therob578.250free.com/ProjectGamer/brightman.jpg[/IMG]), a jolly looking fellow pulled up a seat across from me. I'll tell you, he didn't even ask first! Even a mad doctor such as myself has manners. I guess, that's how I knew he was bad news. Well, that and his beady red eyes gave it away.

Tugging at the tips of his goofy mustache, he introduced himself as the "world renowned" evil Doctor Robotnik.

"World renowned all right," I chuckled, "aren't you the one who couldn't defeat a mere hedgehog with your toys?"

What a fabulously witty remark that was! I immediately jotted it down in my small notepad. After all, such a terrific remark would surely aid me in my gloating efforts tomorrow morning in the bathroom.

This Dr. Robotnik, or so he called himself, wasn't too pleased. His face had become as red as his shirt--what kind of mad doctor doesn't wear a lab coat anyway? His presence was reassuring though. I had to admit, your average evil Tom, Dick, or Harry didn't escape from those darn justice prisons.

By goodness, we almost came to blows when told me that my Robot Masters were "pathetic rip-offs of his mecha Sonic." But, instead of letting fists go to cuffs, I found myself reveling with him in the possibility of hatching a new evil scheme.

At first, I was a bit skeptical. The two of us couldn't defeat our own respective nemesis's, let alone an army of the good. But, this turkey was sitting on a plan, and I was more than eager to hatch it--yet, failure would surely adversely affect my pension and result in negative publicity for Skull Castle.

I told him that I would chew on his offer for a partnership.[/color]

[The Vampire: Ed]

After the gaming world, Arcadinia, was turned upside down. many things were displaced, and thrown to other lands unknown to them. News of a single villain escaping their prison, until now was not acknowledged as a possibility. However, there was not just one villain roaming free any longer. With Arcadinia in chaos, another villain has reawakened. One whom everyone had believed to be dead, and buried under the crust of the planet. They were wrong, as he was merely resting from certain death, he somehow stayed alive living off of the planet's lifestream. He awaits his freedom, he awaits to be reborn unto the world, a new world now thrown into madness.

Somewhere on the outskirts of Raccoon City....

The remains of a demolished mansion was being raided, and searched through by men in tightly sealed biohazard suits. Gathering up all of the few useful items they could, they were ready to return to their based to report their findings. Suddenly, a small earthquake shook the ground. Most of the suited men fell off of their feet from the surprise, and force of it's final tremor. One of the men fell, and he felt something sharp ripping through his bio suit also slicing through his flesh like it was hot butter.

Everyone's attention was brought to the scream of pain, seeing the man laying on his side clenching a bloody arm. Looking to the right of the man, they see a long blade piercing the surface of the soil. Gathering around it with curiosity, they all begin to dig the long sword from it's grave. Looking on in amazement the sword is seen to easily be several feet long, and even taller then some of them. The apparent leader of this recovery squad spoke with a muffled voice under the mask. 'You two take him, and have him checked out for any infection. You four retrieve the blade, it may be of some use or importance.' he commanded. Even more of a surprise, just one man attempted to lift it yet it was unbelievably heavy. Unable to lift it alone, he waved another man over but even the two were unable to pick it up. A third, then the fourth man approach the blade and attempt to lift it. They were successful, but it still wasn't able to be carried as it was only a few inches off the ground. The commander ordered the rest of the men to help them out, at least eight men were on the blade before they were finally able to carry it to the helicopter nearby.

As they shoved the blade into a small cargo bay in the back, they all collapsed on their backs breathing heavily. 'That's insane!' puffed one man as he removed his bio suit hood. 'No one could possibly use that sword, it must have been for decoration in the mansion.' said another. 'No, I don't think so. Wouldn't it have been destroyed in the blast?' questioned another.

As they sat wondering about where it came from, suddenly they heard the commander call out to them. Quickly running towards where the commander is standing, he pointed downwards towards a hand sticking through the soil. It was covered by a ragged black glove, and dirt slowly poured off of it. 'The quake must have uncovered this corpse as well.' said the commander. Leaning over he inspected it closer, then as he was about to motion the others over, the hand lunged from under the earth grabbing the commanders' throats. Gasps of shock, and horror came from each of the men looking on. Slowly a large human figure covered with dirt emerges still holding the commander by the throat, but suddenly falls to one knee releasing it's hold.

It's eyes opened, and like blue emeralds they shined. This was obviously the first time it had opened it's eyes in a long time. Trying to adjust they dilated, and began to focus it's blurry vision. Just then it collapsed, and fell unconscious again.

The commander grasped at his own throat coughing, and gagging for air. He slowly looks at the large being that had a hold of him and quickly ordered his men to contain it. 'We're going to return to Raccoon City, and we're going to place it in the lab for further study.' he said.

After about a half an hour, it was loaded into a large capsule like container and stored in the cargo bay. Finally able to lift off, they return to Raccoon City. When they land on a helipad, closed off to the public, they immediately load their findings onto an elevator. It began to descend underground, upon reaching their desired floor they quick take the specimen to the labs for incubation. The dirt covered being stood supported by a metal brace around his waist. All stood around the glass tube as the liquid flowed into the small chamber.

'We're in the cleaning process right now, and a blood sample is being extracted as we speak to study it.' the lead scientist said. Looking on all were awaiting to see it's dirtless form, and what it was that they now had on their hands. The liquid flowed in, and shuffled around for a moment then emptied. Surprise was on all of their faces as what they found seemed to be a human. A tall male with long white hair, pale white skin, and built like a mythical god. All though he appeared human, they could tell that he was more. Something was different about him. Looking at the monitor, the computer screen flashed results of the blood test.

'Unbelievable!' the lead scientist yelled out, then quickly messed with the computer again. 'What is it?' questioned the commander of the search team. 'Well, according to the results. The subject possess a totally new blood type, nothing is known about it at all. What should we call this mystery blood type?' the scientist asked the on looking crowd of workers.

Staring at the man in the tube, the commander's eyes looked glassy as something seemed to make him answer. 'Janova...' he blurted out. Everyone looked at him, and the lead scientist apparently was in question of how he came up with such an answer, but he didn't ask. The scientist just replied 'Very good.' then typed in the name of the new blood type. Still staring glassy eyed, the commander cut off the scientist as he was in the middle of asking what the subject should be called. 'Sephiroth....' the commander blurted as the next answer.

The scientist didn't seem to have a problem with it, and typed in the name of the subject. Then the commander shook his head, and awoke from whatever dream like state he was in. Looking at the monitor, and seeing the name he spoke 'How did you come up with that name?' Quickly, everyone looked at him confused. He felt uncomfortable, and dismissed himself leaving the room. Exiting the room, the doors shut behind him and a logo is seen covering it. As the commander walked away, it could fully be seen. It was a hexagon with red, and white stripes with in. A company name is over the logo, and reads 'Umbrella'.

Yeah, mainly because I wanted variety in the SSMB battles and because I don't know who's still around.

It had been 3 days. I have made a small raft out of some logs and some string. I also layed a plexi Glass covering on top. With nothing but a couple water bottles and a fishing rod.

My names, Yoshi, Yes I know, I'm talking and your freaking out. But lets get that out of the way already. Im in the middle of the Ocean, Ive been rowing my raft south for a long time now, not knowing where I am going to end up at.

Wait! What is that! Ive spotted land just in front of me, not only that, there is land to my left!

I check my map to see what landmark I am approaching.

Yoshi: Oh cool!

[img]http://images.nintendo.com/nintendo/contents/gamepage/gamecontent/images/s/supersbm_ngc_art168.jpg[/img]

It appears to me that Pac village is to my left, and Green Hill Zone is right ahead! Ive always wanted to visit Green Hill Zone. Hey, maybe Ill get to meet the famous Sonic!

I pull mysefl onto the shore and abandon my homemade raft as soon as my feet are able to touch the ground. I rush to the beach as fast as I can.

Yoshi: Oh thank god! Finally!

Now you'd think Id be kissing the sand like everyone else who as been out at sea for a few days. But not me....I was hungry! I ran over to that Palm Tree so fast........I opened my mouth and aimed my head at some fruits. And I projected my tounge strait out like a sling shot. I then Gathered all of the fruit I could get in my mouth and swallowed them whole.

Yoshi:YOSHI!*does a little dance.

I go and eat some more fruits for a while to satisfy my ravenous needs. I open my mouth and sligshot my tounge out. But it wasnt fruit............a small animal type thingy, I dont know what it was, freaked out and hopped away.

Oh wait a sec......it was an animal......not just an animal. They are called Animals. Oh forget it. Anyways, I continued my Journey down south, passing through various types of Plant life. Then I come to a town entrance. A big sign showed up and read......"Green Hill Valley"........Well I havent talked to anyone in a while, so now would be a good time to work up my socializing skills!

[COLOR=green]Samus Aran walked briskly up one of the many identical streets in the [B]Samus Earth Colony[/B], towards her small home on the outskirts of town. She carefully watched the marketplace around her, on the lookout for anything that could trouble this small town.

Ever since the superheroes had banded together and locked all the villains up in the special prison thing had been quiet and lazy. All Samus had done in the way of fighting crime in the last month was to catch shoplifters. She felt it was a waste of her abilities to try and stop this type of crime, but it as the only crime left now that the villains weren?t regularly cooking up schemes to take over the world or whatnot.

She was also concerned about losing her fighting edge. She practiced against combat automatons every day and spent hours at the shooting range perfecting her accuracy, but it wasn?t the same as fighting Metroid or his cronies.

She sighed; the "good old days" seemed more appealing every day. But she shouldn?t think that, innocent people had suffered because of the endless battles between good and evil. Now that all the villains were all locked up, trade was flourishing like never before and the Stock Market of the Earth Colony was at record highs.

Maybe it was time for her to retire; after all there weren't any jobs for heroes now, were there?[/COLOR]

OOC: I'm not going to truly use the materia unless I am allowed to. If you want me to I will erase that paragraph and make a new one. Also seeing as it is the introduction I'm really sorry but I have to go, I will come back and finish up my post. Sorry that it is so short at the moment!

Cloud walked out of the sector 7 materia shop flipping his new materia hand to hand. Sure he didn't really expect to use it, but it never huts to be prepared. He payed only 1000 gil for it, practically was stealing. Looking at it he finally recognized it. Recover. Of course, fitting that he would get a healing materia. Walking to the slums he looked for a job. With all the evil supposedly locked away life was boring. Monsters all gone, no fighting to do. How did they expect him to get money?

All Cloud had done in the past months was....well nothing. Sure some of the heros were doing things against shop-lifters, smuggles, patheic stuff like that, but really why should he care? It didn't affect him did it? They're all wasting their time, running around fighting "crime". Cloud laughed, they don't even get real recognition for it. Whats the point?

Just then a young girl ran straigh tinto him. "Hey watch it." He looked down then realized who it was. Tifa. He smiled and helped her up. "Watch where you are going punk!" The young girl looked up horrified then realized it was Cloud, a smile broke over her face and a slight blush was present. Brushing off his pants he waved and continue walking.

"Did someone get the number of that truck?"

He asked,Dazed as he fell over.He quickly got up and shook his fist at the Water,

"Grr!You-"

Ash was cute off by the Sound of Laughing,From His own Pikachu!

"Pikachu!Who's side are you on!?"

Ash sighed and picked up his Pikachu.The yellow Mouse quickly ran up his arm and ontop of his Red and White Hat

"Ever since we defeated the Johto Leagues we havent done any travleing,Pikachu!Lets go to places outside of Johto and Kanto,Where they dont have any Pokemon!We could be heros,Teaching everyone about Pokemon!"

Ash laughed as Pikachu and Himself went back to say goodbye to his mom.

"Oh,Ashy!Your leaving again!You just got here!"

His Mom sobbed,

"-_-*...Mom...I came Seven Monthes Ago!"

Delia Embraced her son sadly,

"If you must you must.You are 15 now,Your old enough to do what you want,Bye again,Honey."

And so Ash left his Home town and got onto the S.S Anne,The famous ship and headed off for a new kind of land.

Zero, the red bishy, the last son of Dr. Wily, the guy with feet-length blonde hair, was currently sitting with his legs up upon a console equipped with millions of buttons and flashing lights. Where was he? Why, at his good buddy X's creator's lab.

Slowly getting up from his lazy position, Zero glanced around at the lab surrounding him, stretching his mechanic arms, before heading over to the holographic training room, his previously mentioned, long blonde hair swaying along behind him.

Passing through various rooms filled with experiments and androids like Auto, Zero arrived at a large steel door, marked with a simple bold word on the front.

[B]Holo[/B]

Typing into a small console built into the door, Zero commanded the door to open. And of course, that's what it did, nice and cleanly. What could now be seen was a large room, completely black, except for green lines running across the entire lengths of the roof, floor and walls. After walking in, the door closed behind Zero, and he reached behind his back, pulling off his sabre.

He may of thought of leaving soon, but he wasn't going until he got a good fight.

The room flashed, and Zero dashed forward into the appearing reploid cannon fodder up ahead...

[i]Inside my perfectly square office building I sat at my desk and enjoyed my favorite food, white spheres, for lunch. A beautiful, pizza-shaped vixen entered the room and began to ask me some questions...[/i]

"Are you Pac-Man?"
"It depends, who is asking?"
"I'm Dot."

[i]She was a round woman who had probably just graduated from high school. Her yellow skin was complimented by the blue bow she wore above her mouth; in fact, if I wasn't already a married man I would have tried to make a move on this circular beauty[/i]

*cough* "Yes, I'm Pac-Man. How can I help you?"
"I've got a ghost problem."
"I ain't 'fraid of no ghost."
"That's what I hear. Can you help me?"

[i]She had come to the right place. I've spent the past 20 years of my life on the trail of these monsters, and I had become an expert on fighting them. There was no ghost that I couldn't beat, as long as I had the help of my pellets.[/i]

"Of course I can help you. Now what exactly is your problem?"
"The ghosts, they are after me. I have something they are looking for."
"Can you tell me what that something is?"
"No."
"That's fine too, I like a lady who knows how to keep a secret."[/color]

[The Vampire: Ed]

The sound of running water is heard, suddenly looking into a mirror the commander is seen splashing water in his face. Still feeling a little dizzy from looking at the subject in the lab down the hall, the commander shook his head and splashed water against his face again. Suddenly, the door to the men's bathroom opens up and the hinge squeaks as it slowly shuts. Still looking into the mirror, the commander watches as one of the scientist approaches him.

'Hey, Jim. You feeling okay?' asked the curious scientist. Shaking his head, now with his name known to be Jim, the commander just nods. Looking concerned the scientist keeps asking. 'You're lying. Common! Give me some credit here, we've been friends for years now. I know what you're like, I can tell when you're angry, sad, happy, or whatever. But back there, you were....you were just out of it.' the scientist said.

'NO! NOTHING IS WRONG!!!!' Jim screamed, 'Nothing, just got a headache. Now, please, leave me alone.' he said calmly. Turning the water off, Jim walks away quickly and returns to his quarters to get some rest. While sleeping he dreamt, but it was not his dreams he was dreaming. In them he could see the subject from the tank, Sephiroth, looking down upon a young woman in a pink dress. Apparently, she had been praying for something. But what?

Suddenly, she was interrupted by a young man with radical pointy blonde hair. As the young man reached out seemingly about to touch her, he grabbed his head and slowly raised a large sword looking ready to strike her down. Trying to call out to her, Jim could only watch unable to alter the dream. Coming to his senses, the young man drops his sword and regains his train of thought. Shaking his head he reaches out to the young woman again. But Sephiroth drops down from high up, with the sword Jim remembered finding at the mansion. Pointing downward towards the woman, Sephiroth held the large blade steady.

[IMG]http://community.webshots.com/r1/1/95/91/16119591OMZfRXxPYk_ph.jpg[/IMG]

And in an instant the sword was plunged through the woman's back, on her knees she dropped her arms down to her sides and sat motionless without even a look of pain on her face.

[IMG]http://ccwf.cc.utexas.edu/~schwa/final%20fantasy/Skewered%20Aerith.gif[/IMG]

Jim, was sweating profusely and tried to wake up, but it was not possible. As the young woman collapsed and fell onto the floor, he seen a blue marble looking object roll away from her bouncing from small pillars then in to a body of water. Suddenly, turning his attention back to Sephiroth he seen him smiling evilly at him. It's then that he awakes.

'What was that about?' Jim said as he rubbed his aching head. 'Ohhh...my head! It hurts.' Jim exclaimed as he sat up. Suddenly looking toward the door to his room, Jim seen his friend, Mike the scientist from the restroom, leaning against it looking as pale as a ghost. His first reaction was curiosity, but then it turned to worry as he seen blood all around his body and smearing the door.

Jumping from bed, Jim rushes to Mike's side. 'Mike, are you okay? What's happened?' Jim yells out as he shakes Mike a bit. Slowly, as if awakened from a nightmare he looks at Jim and smiles. 'H-h-hey....Jim...I didn't think you we're ever going to wake up.' Mike stuttered with a sigh of relief and pain.

Looking at his clock, Jim becomes confused. 'What are you talking about, the clock says midnight. I just went to sleep at nine thirty.' returning his sights to his friend he seen him shaking his head "no". 'N-n-no...you've been asleep for two weeks' Mike declaired in his weaken state.

'WHAT?! That's not possible!' Jim said in disbelief. Mike began to slump downward, but Jim picked him up and shook him a bit trying to keep him awake. 'What happened?! Mike, you've got to tell me!' Jim asked. Coughing now, Mike replied.

'It was awful....you should have seen it. That thing you brought in began to regain it's strength right after you fell asleep, we thought it was remarkable. Watching it in the cyro tube it was amazing, people said they felt strange as if someone was calling out to them. S-s-so I went to see what they were talking about. As I looked at it, it's eyes opened and I felt like I lost control of my body. I began to walk toward the computer, and I triggered the release mechanism against my will. The metal brace released it's hold, and the glass was shattered by a strange force.' Mike began coughing, and suddenly blood pours from his mouth.

Jim tries to speak, but Mike continues trying to inform him of what happened. He thought his last breath may help, Jim. 'I-t-it...stepped down and grabbed the sword laying on the table, and....and it plunged it through my stomach. I gasped from shock, the blade was so sharp I couldn't feel any pain at first. But when he removed it, I collapse feeling tremendous pain. I called out for help, and security dashed in, followed by some scientists.' Mike coughed again, and Jim impatiently asked 'What happened?!'

Mike's eyes teared up, obviously he had seen too much. 'They're all dead.' Mike said with a long pain filled sigh. 'A-a-and....now it's my turn...' Mike said with his eyes slowly shutting and his last breath escaping his lungs. Jim shook him screaming for him not to die, then gave up. Looking around he found his handgun, and a couple clips. Stuffing them into his pockets he slides Mike's corpse away from the door, and opened it stepping into the hall.

[Desbreko]

[color=indigo]Link woke up to the sound of someone knocking on a door. He sat up in bed and shook his head, looking around. That's right, he was staying at an inn in a small village just a few miles from Princess Peach's castle. He stood up and walked to the door, opening it.

"Hello?" said Link, rubbing the sleep from his eyes. The person on the other side of the door was a Toad, and the innkeeper.

"Remember, you gotta be out of here by 11:00 AM,? said the innkeeper. ?I?ve got reservations for today."

"Yeah, I know. I won't be long."

He closed the door as the innkeeper walked away down the hall, and yawned. Walking over to the small window in the wall, he opens it, letting the cool morning breeze flow into the room. Again, he rubs his eyes and shakes his head, and then splashes some water onto his face from the small sink in the room.

"I wonder what events today will bring," he thinks as he gets dressed, putting on his customary light leather shirt and pants, with a green tunic belted at the waist over them. Bending down by the end of the bed, he picks up his sword belt, with scabbard attached, and puts it over his shoulder. In the scabbard is none other than the legendary Master Sword, the sword that has been used to defeat Ganon, the Kind of Evil, many times, and also many other foul monsters. Lately, though, it hasn?t been used for quite a while with Ganon safely locked away with the other super-villains, and peace once again ruling in Hyrule and the other lands.

Link sighs as he packs up his Mirror Shield and other items, and walks out of the inn, onto the road. This trip was meant to be a vacation of sorts, but something had been troubling Link?s mind. Something in the back of his mind, that he couldn?t quite sort out. He had also been having unsettling dreams again, but everything else seemed to be normal.

As he walked down the road towards the Princess' castle, he thought back to his last "vacation," which had seen him battling nightmares on an island that was really all just the dream of a giant fish.

"What a peaceful journey that was," he thinks sardonically as he continues down the road. "And I hear that there are Goombas here, too." He grins, remembering the mushroom-like creature on Koholint Island, which could be killed by jumping on them. There were indeed a few Goombas still around in the Mushroom Kingdom, though not many anymore. The monsters roaming the lands had significantly decreased over the last years, until it was quite rare for anyone to run into one.

He continues to let his mind wander as he trudges down the road. After a while, he pulls out an ocarina and plays some tunes to keep himself amused.[/color]

[James]

[size=1]Hm, I want to continue Desbreko's post a bit...you'll see where I'm going with it. If it's not appropriate, please say so.

Also, CWB...I love your original post. Very funny stuff. ^_^[/size]

Link continued walking down the quiet road, which was dotted on either side by small 'shroom houses. After a few minutes, he had become so wrapped up in the tune he was playing that he didn't notice a small golden rabbit frantically hopping toward him via an alleyway to his right.

And suddenly...

[color=red][size=3]CRASH!![/size][/color]

The rabbit ploughed straight into Link, knocking him into a nearby waste bin on the side of the road. The bin fell over (with Link still inside) and rolled into the next door neighbour's bin. And so it happened; bin after bin toppled over, spilling garbage onto the pavement.

Link stood up and shook the rubbish off his clothing. He looked over at the rabbit angrily and picked it up by the ears.

[color=green][b]Link:[/b] Just what do you think you're doing?[/color]

[color=coral][b]Rabbit:[/b] Put me down!! I'm being chased by a mad man with a moustache!! [/color]

Link didn't know what to think. He looked all around him. All he saw was the row of bins scattered over the pathway behind him. The nearest bin had spilled a big glob of pink and yellow paint all over the bricks. But he saw no "madman with a moustache" anywhere.

[color=green][b]Link:[/b] Ugh...look at the mess you've made! Just look at that paint![/color]

The rabbit stopped struggling and frowned.

[color=coral][b]Rabbit:[/b] Fine, fine. I'm sorry. Please let me go?[/color]

Link sighed. He wasn't the cruel type. He sat the rabbit down on the pavement and let go of his ears.

[color=green][b]Link:[/b] There you go. Just don't cause anymore trouble, okay?[/color]

The rabbit nodded and bounded in the opposite direction, over the hill and out of sight.

Link dusted himself off some more and began searching around for his Ocarina. He had dropped it when the rabbit had knocked him into the wastebin. He knelt down near the bin and began searching through the rubbish.

[color=green][b]Link:[/b] Aha! I foun-[/color][color=red] CRAASSH!![/color]

Link was pushed head first into the wastebin a [i]second[/i] time. And not so far away, Link heard a loud "[color=royalblue]SPLASH![/color]". Whoever was chasing the rabbit must have slipped and dived right into the paint on the pathway.

This time, Link wasn't taking any chances. He unsheathed his sword and pulled his head out of the wastebin.

[color=green][b]Link:[/b] Okay...this time I'm not going to be so nice...[/color]

Link approached the stranger on the pathway. He could see someone squirming around in the paint. They appeared to be searching for something. The stranger was wearing some sort of weird contraption on his back...

[color=crimson][b]Mario:[/b] Mama-mia! Where's my hat?![/color]

[color=green][b]Link:[/b] o_O;;[/color]

Link looked down and saw a red cap sitting near his feet. He reached down and plucked it from the ground.

[color=green][b]Link:[/b] Hey...here's your hat![/color]

The stranger stopped squirming and stood up. He walked over to Link and took the cap with his gloved hand (which was dripping with the yellow paint). The stranger placed the cap carefully on his head. He looked a lot less aggrivated now.

[color=green][b]Link:[/b] Hey! It's you, Mario! I didn't recognize you without your hat...[/color]

[color=crimson][b]Mario:[/b] Yeah, I never feel complete without that thing! That rabbit...where'd he go?[/color]

[color=green][b]Link:[/b] Um...he got away. Why were you chasing him?[/color]

[color=crimson][b]Mario:[/b] He was laughing at my moustache.[/color]

[color=green][b]Link:[/b] Oh...well um, it looks like you need to get cleaned up. Why don't you come with me to the Mushroom Inn? I'm sure we can get you cleaned up there and maybe I'll order you a glass of imported Lon-Lon Milk.[/color]

Mario nodded enthusiastically.

[color=crimson][b]Mario:[/b] Actually, I don't need to visit the Inn to get cleaned up. You could help me wash this paint off, you know.[/color]

[color=green][b]Link:[/b] Oh?[/color]

Mario nodded. He unstrapped the device on his back and handed it to Link.

[color=crimson][b]Mario:[/b] Yeah, this here is FLUDD. Just strap him to your back and spray me with water. Then I'll be all clean.[/color]

[color=green][b]Link:[/b] Okay, no problem. Clean is better than dirty any day![/color]

Mario nodded in agreement. He stood in the middle of the path, stretched out his stubby little arms and squeezed his eyes shut.

Link strapped the device to his back and aimed the nozzle directly at Mario.

[color=green][b]Link:[/b] Er...how do I spray?[/color]

Mario opened one eye.

[color=crimson][b]Mario:[/b] Just twist the handle. It should work.[/color]

Link nodded and twisted the handle. Immediately, FLUDD began to shake and almost instantly, a burst of cool blue water exploded above Link's head, engulfing Mario.

Mario turned around so that his back was facing Link. He spat out some water and opened his eyes.

[color=crimson][b]Mario:[/b] Ahh! Much better![/color]

Link twisted the handle again and FLUDD immediately fell silent. He unstrapped the device and handed it back to Mario, who promptly strapped it onto himself once more.

[color=green][b]Link:[/b] Oh, but now you're all wet.[/color]

Mario nodded and smiled.

[color=crimson][b]Mario:[/b] Yeah, but don't worry. I'll dry off by the time we reach the Inn.[/color]

[color=green][b]Link:[/b] Okay, off we go.[/color]

[color=crimson][b]Mario:[/b] Woo hoo![/color]

Link turned and began walking down the path toward the Inn, which was visible in the distance.

Mario switched FLUDD to "hover". Then he ran past Link, jumped up from the pavement and hovered over to the roof of a nearby house.

[color=green][b]Link:[/b] Whoa, hey...what are you doing up there?![/color]

[color=crimson][b]Mario:[/b] Let's make it fun! Let's race there![/color]

Link smiled and crouched on the ground.

[color=green][b]Link:[/b] Sure...on your marks...get set...GO![/color]

[color=crimson][b]Mario:[/b] Woo! Yeah![/color]

Link launched himself from the ground, leaving a trail of smoke and dust behind him. He stared forward intently, dashing across the pavement.

Meanwhile, Mario was hopping from rooftop to rooftop, flipping and criss-crossing between chimneys.

As the pair came nearer to the Mushroom Inn, Link saw a large groud gathered just outside.

Link's eyes opened wide as he tried to stop, digging his heels into the ground. Mario, however, hadn't noticed the crowd. He was too busy feeling the wind rustle through his moustache.

Just as he neared the last jump, he opened his eyes and cried out loud...

[color=crimson][b]Mario:[/b] Whaaa!![/color]

He tried to stop, but it was too late. He slid right off the rooftop toward the crowd. Just as he was about to fall into the crowd, he engaged FLUDD's hover sequence and managed to land on top of the building.

Mario crawled up to the edge of the roof and looked over at the crowd below. An angry Madam Aroma was looking up at Mario, her clothes all wet. Mario's cheeks went red -- Madam Aroma was highly influential in the Mushroom Kingdom, despite being from the far away land of Termina.

Mario hopped down from the roof and landed right next to Link. They were both wondering what the crowd was looking at...

[Schrat]

[size=1] Sub Zero slowley walked towards the edge of the tournaments island. It was there that he would first get a glimpse of the out-side world. A local tribe-men tiped him off that a famous cruise ship, called the SS anne would be passing by and hopefully be glad to take him to the new land he was searching for.

So Sub Zero left early that mourning, and he headed for the shoreline....

About two and a half hours later he had mad it. He was standing on a beachy long road that lead to a dock. He walks up the dock and waited the Cruise ship....[/size]

Aeris awoke slowly, her eyes under the pressure of the beating sun. She tried to turn-over, and fell of the small bed she had fallen asleep upon. She laughed at herself after a large [i]thud[/i].

"Reminds me of something Tifa would do..." she said, chuckling.

She stood up slowly, and grabbed her clothing. She shook her long, flowing honey brown hair out of it's loose bun, and sighed tiredly.

After a quick shower, and change, Aeris garbbed the door handle and flung herself out into Miggar's streets. She smiled as she walked past those of poor fortune; she was going home.

After the 'defeat' of Sephiroth, Aeris had been granted a wish by the Earth. She would never tell anoyone of what really happened, but she would not lie as such either.

She strode carefully to the subway station, looking to take a memory re-vamp in sector seven. She had never really payed tribute to all who died there, and she had planned to do so before she went off looking for her former companions.[/color][/size]

Yoshi entered the Green Valley Town and headed for the nearest INN.

Yoshi: Ummm....Can I get a room?

INN Keepr: Sure, Hmmmm....We have one room left, heres the key! Oh and that will be 30 rings.....

Yoshi: Umm...what are Rings?

Yoshi looked at the nametag of the INN Keeper, it said Kiley.

Kiley: Oh, a foreigner huh? Well, where are you from?

Yoshi: Yoshi's Island of Coarse, dont you know the one and only Yoshi?!

Kiley: Whos Yoshi?

Yoshi::drunk: Im Yoshi........

Kiley: Oh ok.......well, then gimme how ever many coins your holding.

Yoshi hands over 10 coins.

Kiley: Ok, 10 coins add up to 100 rings! Here you are, Ill keep 30 for the room.

She hands over the 70 left over rings and Yoshi swallows it.

Kiley: What the?!

Yoshi: Oh, dont be startled, thats how my species holds their items, we store them in a pouch inside our bodies.

Kiley: Oh ok, right......

Yoshi walks up the steps and starts towards his room. But he hears some people talking in the room next to him, he puts his head next to the door.

?????: But Knuckles, how do you expect to go alone? Im comign too!

Knuckles: No your Not Sonic! I fight alone!

?????:Well Im coming too.

Sonic and Knuckles: No you arnt Tails!

Tails: Awww......

Sonic: To Eggman's Laire!(Sp?)

The door slams open, squishing Yoshi into a panpake on the opposite side.

Yoshi: Oww.....Oh man! My rings are scattered everywhere!!(Hehe..)

Sonic and Knuckles dart off out the INN.

Yoshi heres someone crying in the room that they barged out of.

Tails: Tjose meanies....*Sob

Yoshi: Hey there, its alright, Mario is the same way.....but he needs my help sometimes. So you can come in handy to them sometime too. Besides, you dont need them, why dont you go on your own adventure.

Yoshi: Geeze, there are some really wierd people around here.

Yoshi puts the Emerald in a pouch and straps it to his saddle, cause he doesnt know if he wants to swallow it......something about it.....is strange......that green glowing light.

Yoshi heads over to a nearby shop and buys himself a pair of S0AP shoes.

Hmm. you can still get into your profile by clicking the private message link at the bottom of the main page.

And there's no reason why I should object to your post James. That interaction with Link was splendid. :toothy:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[color=red]I didn't know what to think. That wretched Sonic and his meddlesome friends had spoiled my plans one too many times. Where did I go wrong? Every year I reveal my newest caper--my résistance Finale, in an attempt to acquire complete and utter world domination. But not last year. [I]No[/I], that pesky Hedgehog foiled my latest and greatest scheme to date.

You see, time after time, I imprison innocent animals and convert them into Badniks in a grand effort to obtain the seven chaos emeralds. But, oh no! Sonic had grown quite expectant of such exercises. I had to catch him off guard! What did I do you ask? Why, I created a grand petting zoo! Balloons, candy, souvenirs--by George, I had it all. All the charm of a petting zoo without the putrid odor! Ho, ho ho, I would use my devilish wiles to lure in what everyone values most--their young children! Ho, ho, ho, I'm so evil it hurts sometimes. [I]Ow.[/I]

Surely, with the world's children held ransom, even Sonic would have no choice but to hand over those precious emeralds to yours truly. "Oh delightful day," I thought, "world conquest shall be mine at last." Boy was I wrong.

Somehow that cursed Hedgehog and his companions caught wind of my plans and sabotaged my secret underground factory before my plot could come into fruition. [B]Drat, drat and double drat! I despise you Sonic! One day I shall heap fury upon your jagged head![/B]

[IMG]http://therob578.250free.com/ProjectGamer/sonicdead.jpg[/IMG]

Ahem, pardon me, that was quite rude on my part. Shall I continue? Yes, very well then.

After the petting zoo facade was exposed for what it was, I was imprisoned. The sentence: indefinite. It seems that using innocent children as a pawn in a game of global conquest is unethical--or so they say.

Bound by the chains of the newly instituted legal system, and cast unto a future of solitary confinement, only one thing remained certain--I would have my revenge! After all, [I]I always come back.[/I] At least I had cable television and nachos. I also reveled in my own splendor as I consumed as many chili dogs as my rotund body allowed. Yes, I would deplete the world's supply of chili dogs! That would be my revenge against that peon, Sonic.

Some time later, a superior opportunity to settle the score presented itself; I took it without hesitation. Who would have expected that it would be [I]him[/I], the epitome of heroism, that would release the world renowned Dr. Ivo Robotnik from captivity?! Admittedly, even I was a tad taken.

As per his request, I tracked down that simpleton, Dr. Albert Wily at a Starbucks (they're everywhere aren't they) nearby Skull Castle. You should have seen him--it was pathetic. The fool was outraged that a zit-riddled teenager didn't recognize him. He insisted that he was a celebrity. The cashier was stifling laughter. Pumping his arms into the air like a madman, Wily then proceeded to scream at the poor boy regarding the steep price of the coffee on hand.

Of course, the teen recognized me when I caught his eye. After all, I'm a world renowned scientist--not like that Dr. Wily. What kind of mad doctor wears a laboratory coat nowadays anyway? It's so eighties.

After signing the boy's autograph book and shrugging off a mob of admirers, I then proceeded to Wily's table, where he literally jumped at the opportunity to work alongside a professional of my caliber. Playing it cool, I told him that I would consider a partnership. Sweet, succulent, juicy, revenge will be mine! I'm sorry, it's just that I've developed quite the liking for chili dogs since my prison stint.[/color]

[color=royalblue][i]If anyone in the Green Hill zone was to look up at the moment, they would see a small fox flying over the lush hills, listening to music. And then they would have checked themseves into a mental hospital.

Of course, this Fox is real. His name is Miles "Tails" Prower, although he prefers to be called by his nickname, Tails. He was not flying anywhere at the moment, just taking a time out to enjoy the sites around him....And listen to his favorite music.[/i]

[b]Tails:[/b]'Cause I'm crawling in the dark!...Looking for the awnsers! Na na na na na na! Man, it fells great just to fly around with out following Sonic and bustin up baddies...I wonder if Robuttnick will show up again? Sonic's been getting a little rusty...

[i]Tails set down at the edge of Green Hill Zone, and decided to wait for Sonic and Knuckles...He coulden't wait for the three of them to just hang out, instead of fighting...Ahh, this was the life.

Tails produced a small telvision from his back pack, and turned it on. The latets news feed from TRBTVNNW(The Really Big TV New NewtWork) reported that Dr. R, and some unspecified wacko where reported to be having coffee in a Starbucks.

Tails wondered if this could mean anything..And who si that wacko?![/color][/i]

[color=darkblue][i]Dot was afraid to stay home by herself, and I had an extra bedroom at my place. My wife was out of town for the weekend with our children, ao it would just be the two of us.

After an evening at dinner (Dot can cook one helluva pellet) we sat around my fireplace and shared stories over a glass of wine. My plan was to get her into a sense of security, so that I could learn more about the item that she was holding from the ghosts. But from what I recall, nothing went according to plan that night...[/i]

"..so I looked at that ghosts straight in the eye and said, "I've just eaten three of your buddies. Are you going to be the one to stop me from getting my Strawberry?"
"Ooh... what did he do?"
"He refused to move. A lot of people think he is a wuss, but the truth is that Clyde is one brave guy."

[i]It was a nice evening, and the moon was brightly lit. It looked like a great big energy pellet caught in the sky...

Now at about this point you may ask yourself "Why does he talk about pellets so much?". And I have to remind you that all I eat is pellets. You would think about them this much too if you were a Pac-Person.[/i]

"I need to thank you for letting me stay here."
"No problem ma'am. If there is anything else that I can do to help you, don't hesitate to ask."
"Well, there is one thing..."
"Yes?"[/color]

Sneaking down the blood stained hall, Jim, with his back to the wall held his handgun up ready to take aim. Looking down the hall, corpses are seen scattered about. Some even seen smashed through walls, or hanging from holes in the ceiling. 'What in the....? How could one man, er..thing, whatever it is, do this?' Jim muttered to himself. Peering around the corner Jim caught a glimpse of the beast himself, the one known as Sephiroth. Standing in the middle of the hall, with his bloody sword by his side.

Jim, became nervous and accidentally tapped the gun against the wall. Hearing the noise, Sephiroth begins to look back, towards the origin of the sound. Lady luck was on Jim's side, however, as the doors slid open at the end of the hall. Returning his sights forward, Sephiroth watches a scientist running down the hall bloody and screaming 'They're all over the place!!!' while looking behind him. Not even paying attention the scientist bumps into Sephiroth, and falls on his back looking straight at him.

Shaking the scientist slowly tries to get back to his feet, but Sephiroth puts his boot on the scientist's stomach trapping him down against the floor. With little to no show of emotion at all, Sephiroth raised his blade up high and began to bring it down. Unable to watch any longer, Jim dives into the middle of the hallway rolling into a kneeling position and aims his gun. 'FREEZE!!!' Jim commanded Sephiroth as the gun clicks.

Sephiroth looks back, his hypnotic blue eyes lock with Jim's, suddenly an evil smile crosses Sephiroth's face as he looks back plunging the sword through the scientist's heart. 'NOOOOO!!!!' screamed Jim as he emptied a clip in Sephiroth's direction.

However, in one swipe of his sword, the bullets were destroyed. Wide eyed, Jim stared with his mouth hanging open in disbelief. Then his expression turned to curiosity as he watched Sephiroth slowly raising his free hand, holding it out in front of his face. Slowly Sephiroth's mouth opened, and he uttered his first word 'Fire...'

Jim tilled his head a bit looking confused, then the hallway lights dimmed and a large flame explodes from Sephiroth's hand. With his wide eyed look again Jim exclaimed 'Holy s**t!!' then quickly dove back behind the wall. A second later, and he would have been fried. Jim slouched against the wall as the searing flame roared past him and against the opposite wall.

'What the hell was that?!' he said to him self breathing heavy and reloading his gun. As he shoved the clip in, he peeked around the corner of the hall again. But, Sephiroth was gone! Disappeared as if he was a mirage, but this of course was no mirage. Slowly walking down the hall, seeing the now burnt walls he looked downward to the scientist's corpse. Apparently, the fire even burnt him all though he was behind the inferno.

'Sorry.' Jim said as he stepped past the crispy body, and through the opened doors at the end of the hall. Looking around, Jim realized he was now outside. He found himself in a courtyard, and by the looks of it. Something other then Sephiroth was doing killing. Finding another body, Jim kneels down to examine it. A female scientist. Her throat was torn out, and a look of terror remains on her half devoured face. Hearing a growl, Jim points his gun towards the bushes it came from.

'What now?!' he said to him self, as he waited. As he watched the bushes he suddenly hears a clicking noise behind him. He freezes for a moment, and slowly looks back hearing another growl. It was a guard dog, however something wasn't right. It's flesh looked rotten, and it's eyes glassy with a reddish tint.

With a false smile, Jim tried to befriend the dog. 'That's a good boy! Nice doggy...uh...stay...' Jim said as it slowly approached him. Once again it growled though, and he just jumped from his kneeling position taking off immediately. 'So much for that plan!' he yelled as he raced across the grass heading for a large gate. Looking back he seen the dog giving chase, then another jumped from the bushes joining in. 'DAMN!' Jim screamed.

With the gate only a foot away he ran full speed into it, but hit it and fell down. Looking up he seen that it was still locked. 'S**t!' he exclaimed. Quickly getting to his feet he shook the gate, but no dice. It wouldn't open! Turning he faced the dog, as the one jumped at his throat he pointed his gun at it. 'Play dead!' he yelled as he fired a shot hitting it directly between the eyes. Just as it hit the ground the other dog behind leapt at Jim, it was too quick. He'd never be able to get a shot off, closing his eyes preparing to die Jim stood still like a statue.

With his eyes closed he could only see darkness, and hear the oncoming dog's growl. In the next moment a howl of pain is heard, then the sound of steel hitting concrete. Opening his eyes slowly, Jim was face to face with the dog. It's head lay limp, as does it's body. Looking around he seen the large sword Sephiroth had been carrying impaling the dog against the brick courtyard wall.

Without giving another thought to the situation, Jim looked around seeing no one then shot the lock off the gate and exited into the streets of Raccoon City. But before he walked away from the gate he looked back again, and seen the dog's body laying on the ground but the sword was missing. He shook his head, and ran through the back alleys trying to get as far away as possible. Coming out to a street, Jim could see a blockade of police cars. But there were no policemen anywhere to be seen, blood stained the streets and fires could be seen in the distance. Looking around, Jim mutters to himself 'I don't like the looks of this...'

[Warlock]

Zero now stood in the midst of a fierce battle between both Hunter and Maverick forces, right inside Hunter H.Q. Or more appropriately, inside the Holographic Room of Light's Lab.

Currently in the middile of a 360 degree twist, the Red Hunter had his sabre out in front, glowing steadily with a green hue, and slicing through several Mav gumbies. Y'know, just those cannon fodder Maverick, the one you can take out in a few quick shots. Or in Zero's case, slices.

His blonde hair whipping around behind him, he finished off his Twist of Slicing, coming to a quick stop, before scanning the room he was in. It was a medlab, medical tables spread throughout this very large room. Equipment was perched on these tables, and on little trolleys next to them. Scattered among this were the countless bodies of both Maverick and Hunters.

Zero hated seeing so many losses on his side, and it actually took a bit of mind control to make him remember this was just a simulation. Nothing more, nothing less...

There was a creaking noise to Zero's left, and spinning around, he pointed his buster in the general direction. He was looking at yet another buster gumbie. Growling in disgust, he fired off a small, solitary ball of plasma at the Maverick before it could react. It exploded in a bright ball of flames.

And then, suddenly, a loud beep echoed through the medical room. The simulation was over. To further back this up, the room around Zero, and it's occupants, just faded away, revealing the black room with green stripes once again. Switching off his sabre, and reverting his buster back into a hand, covered in armor, he wandered out, towards a computer terminal not too far away...

[color=indigo]Link: Heheh... Smooth move.

Mario: Hey, at least I didn't go straight into the crowd.

[i]They both look around for a while, trying to figure out what all the fuss is about. Finally, they're able to make their way to the front of the crowd, where they see a large Piranha Flower in the flower bed just outside the door to the inn. It was lunging and snapping at anyone that approached it.[/i]

Mario: Wow. It's been a long time since I've seen one of those.

[i]Just then, the innkeeper, who's walking about in a panic in front of the inn, sees Mario.[/i]

Innkeeper: Mario! You've got to do something, it won't let anyone into the inn!

Mario: No problem, we'll have this thing out of the way in no time!

Link: Hey...that thing looks almost like a Deku Baba, from back home.

Mario: Hmm...I'll squirt it with some water to distract it, you give it a good chop with your sword.

[i]Mario switches to the Squirt Nozzle, and sprays a stream of water at the Piranha Flower, which makes it jump and lunge in Mario's direction. At the same time, Link unsheathes the Master Sword, and when the Piranha Flower lunges at Mario, he slashes down at the section where the flower's head meets the rest of the stem. The head falls clean off, and it and the rest of the flower shrivels up, leaving a small dead weed in the flower bed.[/i]

Innkeeper: Oh, thank you, Mario, and you too, Link! I didn't know you were here in the Mushroom Kingdom. If there's anything I can do for you two, just ask!

Link: Hmm...how about getting us a couple of glasses of Lon Lon Milk?

Innkeeper: Sure, come on in and sit down. It's on the house.

[i]The innkeeper smiles, and leads them inside to the large dining room off of the inns lobby, where there are some tables and a kitchen in the back. Link and Mario sit down at a small table, and the innkeeper brings them their milk.[/i]

Link: Well, that was fun. Been awhile since I've used my sword.

Mario: I wonder how it got to be in the flower bed, though. Anymore, you barely see any out in the county, let alone in town.

Link: Very odd indeed.

[i]They both sit there a while, talking and drinking their milk, relaxing.[/i][/color]

[The Vampire: Ed]

Looking towards the barricade of police car's, Jim spots shotguns littering the ground. Slowly approaching the baron looking area, Jim reaches down for a shotgun laying by the passenger side of a police car. Just as he gripped it, the car's door swung open startling Jim and causing him to fall back. Immediately pointing his gun, Jim focuses seeing the body of a dead cop laying on his back. His heart beat wildly still shaken up, he sighs in relief then reaches for a box of shotgun shells laying on the seat next to the cop.

Once again, Jim apologies to the dead. This time as he's taking the box of shotgun shells, but just as his pulling his hand out of the car the cop's eyes shoot open! He grabs Jim's arm trying to take bites of his exposed flesh, seemingly losing it at the moment Jim shots the cop several times in the head. Now laying limp, the cop releases it's hold on Jim's arm. Scurrying away, Jim looks over his arm making sure he's still got all of his skin.

Turing around he looks at the dead cop once more, then continues on almost as if he's no longer worried about having his questions answered. Survival is his only concern now. Jim disappers down the street, and towards the Raccoon City Police Station in hopes that there may be help for him there.

Elsewhere in the city....

A shadow is seen leaping across rooftops as if they were only two inches wide, a metallic shine reflects light randomly as the moonlight hits. Suddenly landing on another rooftop Sephiroth stands straight up looking over the city of chaos. Screams of pain, and pleads for help are heard echoing through out the city. Any normal person would be full of fear, or terror. But not the mighty Sephiroth, supposed son of Jenova.

His cold uncaring eyes watch over the city still, fire from burning buildings reflect upon his eyes. His sights are locked on the street below, without a second though Sephiroth dives off of the tall building and lands on his feet. A feat that would even make a cat jealous.

Walking for a bit Sephiroth caches as paper blowing in the wind, he continues walking as he glances at it. The front page reads 'The Dead Walk!', but he flips the page and looks at a news article inside. It's a news story about the villains all being locked away, and one of them escaping. With a slight grin, Sephiroth releases it leaving it to blow away once more.

Suddenly, from an office building a large rather plump man waddles out screaming. Running straight for Sephiroth, he stops and begins to speak as he shakes in fear. 'You've got to get out of here!!! The citys been overrun with zombies, and monsters!!! They're all over!' the fat man screams at Sephiroth while waving frantically. Ignoring him Sephiroth just walks past him, but the fat man doesn't leave him alone.

Grabbing onto Sephiroth's coat, and the fat man stops him. 'You've got to listen to me!!! Ther...' as the fat man tried to speak, Sephiroth quickly spun around and lopped off his hand. Screaming as his hand falls to the ground, Sephiroth quickly follows up with a diagonal slash going upwards then does it again in reverse. Sephiroth turns and continues walking down the street, as the fat man stands coughing and clutching at his stomach. Taking one step forward, the fat man spits in two and immediately like vultures zombies pour our into the street to feast on the remains.

The road ahead is full of recked automobiles, and dead bodies. News papers, and garbage liter the streets. It was a variable dead trap, and Sephiroth was strolling trough like a walk in a park. A roaring fire blocked the road ahead, one would think avoiding it would be the best option. However, Sephiroth was not one to care. Why shouldn't he? He's a god, at least in his own eyes. Like a familiar scene playing over, and over in his head. Sephiroth walked right through the blazing inferno.

Fox is wandering through the beach, with a metal detector (yep, you heard right!).

Fox- What a bore! I should be out there, fighting evil creatures bent on destruction, not looking for a thief's buried loot.

Fox- I'm listening.

Peppy- A strange energy signal has been located not too far from your position. I need you to check it out.

Fox- (Finally, something interesting!) I'm on it.

After turning off his COM, he jumped on his Hover Bike and sped towards the town.
