After a while, the group kept walking through the desert. “How much farther are we?” Peach asked. “Calm down, we're almost there.” The person said. “Can we at least know of your name?” Rouge asked. “Yes, for now, you can call me W.” W introduced. “Well, at least we don't have to just say the person or something like that.” Amy said. “Ah, I think we're almost to civilization, I can see the buildings!” Luigi said. (Everyone looked to the distance and saw a city. The group heads forward to it and were at the walls. Noticing an opening, the group went inside to see the buildings. The city's houses were thick as the white round roofs were wider then the houses themselves. They were of a tan like the desert as the floor was of white bricks. There were brown doors and windows opened up to reveal the insides of the houses. The creatures were wearing brown robes with a white mask having three holes for eyes and a mouth) “What are these things?” Ivory asked. “Shy Guys, or Gals, quite the creatures, I've never been in this part of the desert, we've only went golfing ounce farther from here.” Luigi explained. “Well, you have quite the memory Luigi, it seems that we are in the Typical District.” W said. “So where do we go from here?” Amy asked. “Easy, we can split up and search for clues about where Rose and those two men could be.” Shade explained. “Sounds good, but is there a place we can meet up at?” Cream asked. “Yes, in the center of town is a big fountain, you can meet there.” W explained. “That sounds great, wait, you said you?” Peach asked. “I must head back to the desert, what if other travelers are lost?” W asked. “I guess you have a point, thank you for showing us the way W.” Peach said. “Anytime, farewell.” W said. (She walked off back to the opening) “Right, back to our plan.” Shade said. “Yes, we know what to do, we all split up and get information.” Knuckles said. “You heard the man, lets go.” Rouge said. (They all split up and went through the openings in between the houses, leaving Ivory, Rouge, Devil, and Knuckles) “Well, looks like we have to do some exploring.” Knuckles said. “Lets go forward.” Rouge said. (The group had entered into the building in front. It was like a mushroom house, but larger about three stories high with a white top
Inside, there were many stands in the circle shaped building with a large spiral staircase reaching up to the two other stories. Looking above, there was a circle opening on the celing while the floor was white. The stands had Shy Guys as well as Koopas and Goombas. The stands mostly had jewelery, fruits, and wooden toy planes. Rouge walked up to a Goomba wearing a sun hat with jewelery, but Knuckles grabbed Rouge's arm) “No Rouge, we're not here for gems.” Knuckles said. “I knew he would catch me.” Rouge thought. “Guys, we're here for information.” Ivory said. “Well, what do you want us to do?” Rouge asked. “Search, me and Devil can go upstairs while you two just ask.” Ivory said. (She and Devil went up the stairs along with the crowd.
Upstairs on the second floor, Ivory and Devil pushed through the crowd as Devil was on Ivory's head. They saw more of the stands) “Chao.” Devil said. “I know, but where to go?” Ivory asked. “Are you searching for something strange creature?” Someone asked. (Ivory turned around to find a stand with a creature like a Koopa, but with a different head shape and a black ring pattern on the shell. Less turtle, more human for the face. It wore black goggles and had three thick black hairs on the top of it's head. It's stand had a carpet and five baskets with the red flowers from before and five sets of Mushrooms. Three baskets were filled with normal Mushrooms while the two remaining had white Mushrooms with red hearts and another was with the red flowers) “Yeah, I'm searching for a green cat.” Ivory explained. “No cat as I could recall.” The creature said. “Well, how about Wario and Waluigi?” Ivory asked. “Those two, yeah, I saw them.” The creature said. “Where?” Ivory asked. “I can't say without payment.” The creature said. “What do you mean?” Ivory asked. “Chao?” Devil asked. “What I mean is that me and my family worked really hard for all of these Fire Flowers and Mushrooms.” The creature said. (Ivory looked up to notice the sign saying Lakitu's Mushrooms and Flowers) “Okay, I know what your saying, (Ivory looked at Devil and then back to the Lakitu. She got out twenty seven golden rings) will this work as payment?” Ivory asked. (The Lakitu grabbed one of the rings and got out a coin larger then his hands. He inspected the two and banged them both on the table) “It seems that your not from around here, but these rings are made of the same gold.” The Lakitu explained. “So does it mean I can buy something?” Ivory asked. “Of course, with this amout, you can get quite a lot.” The Lakitu explained. “What do you mean?” Ivory asked. “Whenever there's a Good Harvest where I come from, us salesmen have a sale, so two rings for a normal Mushroom, three for a Life Shroom, and five for a Fire Flower.” The Lakitu explained. “You should write that down, you do that while I decide.” Ivory said. (She and Devil looked at the wooden baskets. Ivory looked at Devil and it flew down to a Mushroom. Ivory grabbed it out and Devil pointed at it again. Ivory grabbed out three more and Devil nodded) “Chao.” Devil said. “Why do you want four?” Ivory asked. (Devil flew to the Life Shrooms) “Chao.” Devil said. “It's always hard to understand what you say.” Ivory said. (She grabbed onto a Life Shroom and Devil picked out a Fire Flower. Ivory grabbed the flower and then her finger tips glowed white) “The Avorio Storico?” Ivory thought. (The whole room changed to reveal two cloaked figures. One of them had the grasp on the same Fire Flower that Ivory was holding) “Well, this is indeed a strange place, but we need to get going, (The one with the flower looked at the Lakitu) can you tell us a location, we're lost.” Someone said. “Yeah, well, there's that blizzard, we have no clue whats going on, but you can check it out if you can.” The Lakitu said. “Right, and maybe we'll find him.” Someone #2 said. (The Avorio Storico ended with Ivory on the ground weak. She managed to get up and rubbed her head. Devil was watching and Ivory shook a bit more. The two then placed the five mushrooms and single flower onto the stand) “Is everything alright?” The Lakitu asked. “Yeah, did you see two cloaked figures?” Ivory asked. “How did you know?” The Lakitu asked. “I just want to know where they went.” Ivory explained. “I told them of the strange moutains, there is a massive blizzard and no one's made it back.” Lakitu explained. “Thanks, I'll keep this information.” Ivory said. “Right, well, the stuff you picked out will be sixteen rings please.” The Lakitu said. (Ivory gave out the fiftheen rings as one was already in Lakitu's grasp. He was about to grab a basket behind the stand, but Devil grabbed the items and placed them into Ivory's bag) “Thanks Devil, now, about that information.” Ivory said. “Again, you're just curios aren't you, the two, they were heading towards the Mushroom Oasis, I would question it, but I'm just here to sell stuff.” Lakitu explained. “Thank you, lets get going.” Ivory said. (She and Devil went down the spiral stairs and made it back down.
The two made it to the center of town. There was a giant fountain with many creatures walking around it. The foutain's statue was made of balls with spikes, having a face on the top ball and a flower on the top where the water was escaping. The two found Luigi sitting on the fountain's ridge) “Still nothing, I wonder where the others are.” Luigi whispered. “Hey Luigi, what are you doing?” Ivory asked. (Luigi looked and saw the tigon and chao) “Oh, its you two, did you find anything?” Luigi asked. “Yes, Rose, Wario, and Waluigi left for the Mushroom Oasis.” Ivory explained. “Really, well, thats better then nothing.” Luigi said. “So why are you standing here, I don't see the others.” Ivory said. “The only thing left is to find the others.” Luigi said. “Right, lets go forward.” Ivory said. (The three began to walk through the bazzars.
After a while, the whole group was back together. They were all at the middle of the city with the Pokey fountain) “So you found something?” Peach asked. “Yes, someone said that Wario and Waluigi were last spotted near the Mushroom Oasis, we will search for them there.” Ivory exlained. “The Mushroom Oasis, I remember about them, that was when we went golfing.” Peach explained. “Do you remember the location princess?” Knuckles asked. “Yes, it will be very easy to get to, just follow me!” Peach said. (She ran off and the others followed.
The group were at the desert walking) “So what do you believe to be at the Mushroom Oasis?” Amy asked. “I don't know, but it might be trouble.” Shade said. “Brother, is it going to be like before?” Tiffany asked. “No, we won't be running for our lives like last time.” Shade said. “What do you mean by last time?” Peach asked. “Well, Ivory had the bright idea of stealing twenty seven rings from a saloon.” Shade said. “Hey, I was only fourteen.” Ivory said. “Yeah, that was a year ago, right now, your fifteen!” Shade said. “Your only seventeen!” Ivory yelled. “Will you both stop yelling?” Tiffany yelled. “If you stop it yourself!” Shade yelled. “Big brother, ugh, your not like this most of the time.” Tiffany said. “Well, this is going to be fun.” Amy said. (The tigon and akita both continued to yell, much to everyones annoyance.
An hour had passed as the group were at an oasis in the shape of a mushroom. The water was crystal clear and there were palm trees with strange fruit in the shape of pentagons in a shade of white. Farther in the distance was two big sand dunes) “This is it, the Mushroom Oasis, I wonder what happens here.” Peach said. (Knuckles looks over to Ivory and Shade) “Have you two gotten over your argument?” Knuckles asked. “Yeah, just what is there to find around here?” Shade asked. “Those dunes in the distance, do you think they may have something?” Cream aksed. “Possibly, let's just take a look.” Shade said. (They all walked over to the dunes and went on top while Ivory was at the side of the right dune) “There's nothing here, just sand and the sky.” Amy said. “This day is just getting better and better.” Luigi said. “Calm down Luigi, if your thirsty, just get some water.” Rouge said. “I know, but I'm not all that thirsty.” Luigi said. “Hey guys!” Ivory yelled. (The whole group looked down upon Ivory to see her rubbing sand away) “Ivory, what are you doing?” Peach asked. “Come closer, I found something!” Ivory said. (The whole group went to Ivory and they saw a big metal door with the symbol of Metal Android) “That doesn't look good.” Shade said. “It must be a base, just like Rose.” Ivory said. “Should we all just barge in?” Knuckles asked. “No, we should just send on person inside to check it out.” Rouge said. “Big brother, you can do it.” Tiffany said. “Me, okay, just give me a second, Ivory, the bag.” Shade said. (Ivory got her bag out and gave Shade armor like an Anthroloid's. Shade went behind the dune and dressed up. He came back wearing an Anthroloid suit with the raised parts of armor. He was holding onto his cape and sandles. The group moved away for Shade to put his hand onto the door and pry it open) “Here's to something great.” Tiffany said. (The door closed and was shut. Everyone looked around and went over to the oasis while Shade was inside.
Inside, Shade was looking around while ajusting his visor to make sure it would hide his face and make him see in the dark. The hallway was dark with a few lights hanging up above making this place look abandonded. Shade continued to walk cautiosly hoping not to find any real Anthroloids. He continued to walk down the hallway while breathing slowly, giving off a robotic sound. Up in front was two Anthroloids holding onto cloathing looking like W's. Shade went up to the two and they saw him) “Well, another Anthroloid, which general or commander did you come from?” An Anthroloid asked. “Me, I am an elite soldier from the Dictator himself, I may not look like it, but I am of the best.” Shade explained. “Is that so, well, what are you doing here?” The other Anthroloid asked. “I came to check on Metal Android, is General Rose here as well?” Shade asked. “No, she isn't here.” An Anthroloid explained. “Well, where did you get those rags?” Shade asked. “These, we found an animal trying to break in, she almost harmed Commander Metal Android.” The other Anthroloid explained. “Where is she now?” Shade asked. “In the prison section, why do you want to know?” An Anthroloid asked. “It's none of your buisnes, did you forget who I work for?” Shade asked. “Sure, we'll just get rid of these rags.” An Anthroloid said. “I apreciate the information, I'll be off.” Shade said. (He walked off and looked around as he saw the Anthroloids leave) “I just hope they don't find Tiffany and the others.” Shade thought. (He closed his eyes as there was light escaping from an opened door. Shade grabbed onto the metal and it opened up.
Inside, there was a platform with four bridges with a giant armory below with guns and the sounds of heavy presses. There were more Anthroloids and near the edge was a holographic map with bold words. On the right part was the Prison Section spelled out. Shade walked away while turning off his night vision. He looked a bit more deeper into the big hole to see there was a conveter belt and it was mass producing the Anthroloids. Shade continued on and went into the room. There were some cells and stairs. Shade went down the stairs to find a heavily locked door with no one around. The dog went up to the door and saw a control pad with a switch. Shade flipped the switch and the locks began to open up. The akita look around as the door fully opened and he quickly went in. There was a person locked up within heavy machinery. Shade couldn't see who the person looked like easily. He took a step forward and went over to the controls next to the prisonor. The akita pressed a few buttons and pulled a switch. The locks began to open. Shade looked back hoping not to find anyone. It was still empty as he heard a moan. The prisinor was a fox, but it had nine long tails. It's fur color was of the flowers known as amaranth with thick peach lines all over the body possibly forming symbols. It had a white muzzle with fur on the ends and more peach around the unfused eyes with marigold irises. There was more amaranth hair with it being long reaching above the tails with peach tips. It wore an indigo short sleeved coat with the symbol on the back being a big white lined circle with a half indigo and half white heart and next to it being two white ovals. On the skirt part were white diamonds having a darker indigo thread connecting the white diamond shapes going around a full circle. It had short black tights and no gloves, having the heart symbol on the top of the hands. There were sandles having indigo straps with revealing parts of a heart. The Kitsune began to fall over and Shade caught it. The fox looked up upon the Akita) “You, why did you get me out?” The fox asked. “W, is that you?” Shade asked. “Wait, you were with those animals, please get me out.” W said. “Calm down, I'll help, but it's going to be risky.” Shade said. “Have any ideas?” W asked. “Yeah, but as I said before, not that easy with the guards I went through.” Shade said. “Maybe there might be something we can use.” W said. (The two looked around noticing some boxes.
After a while, Shade was walking with a big crate larger then his size. The other Anthroloids noticed him holding the crate and moved aside. Shade continued to walk as the weight was affecting his shoulders. He kept going, knowing that hopefully, he can get out of the base. Suddenly, lights flash red as a siren plays loud sounds. The other Anthroloids rush towards where Shade was and pushed him away as they were heading towards the entrance. Shade hit the ground, but the crate was still intact. The akita got up and went into another room. He looked around to make sure that no one was there. Shade opened the top of the crate to reveal the female fox) “At least your okay.” Shade said. “I heard the sirens, they must have found your friends.” W said. “Right, just stay right here while I help them.” Shade said. “Okay.” W said. (She knelt down and Shade closed the crate's top. He ran off back into the hallway passing by other Anthroloids. They all went right and Shade followed. They were in another room shaped like a box. The floor glowed and the entire group was teleported.
The whole group appeared right behind the dunes and all saw Tails and others. They prepared their blasters and fired. The whole group of robots rushed to fight with the heroes. Shade looked around and noticed his cape and sandles and went towards the dune quickly taking off his suit while trying not to be seen. The heroes were fighting against the machines as Shade jumped from behind the dune. He had slashed through one and went over to Ivory. Knuckles and Amy went through some as Tails had slammed his tails against the machines. An Anthroloid prepared it's weapon at Luigi. Luigi ducked as it fired a bullet and Luigi jumped high. He then did a ground pound and broke through the machinery. Anthroloids saw this and pointed their guns at Luigi. Luigi charged up and jumped higher and landed away from the ring of machines and was running. The Anthroloids fired more at Luigi as he rushed towards the dune wih the door. Knuckles saw Luigi trying to open the door to the base. Knuckles hurried to Luigi and punched the door open and avoid more gun fire. The two made it inside and rushed forward as there were lasers. Luigi covered his face with his hat as Knuckles was rushing through punching every locked door that blocked their way.
The two made it to the big room with the production of the Anthroloids and the holographic map was still up. There was the words Commander's Quarters which pointed up. The two went forward where there was nothing, Luigi looked back upon hearing explosions from far away. Knuckles grabbed Luigi by the shoulder and ran off towards the Commander's Quarters. They found more Anthroloids in wait protecting a door. Knuckles punched through some while Luigi used his hammer. They quickly went through the machines and Knuckles forced the door to open up. Inside was Eggman looking over a holographic map. He jumped after hearing the door slam hard. He saw the two) “Knuckles, Luigi, what a suprise to see you here!” Eggman said. “Give up Eggman, we took care of those machines.” Knuckles said. “Even without those machines, I still have defense.” Eggman said. (Guns appeared from the walls and fired plasma. Both Luigi and Knuckles were hit and stuck to the floor) “Hey, I can't get up!” Knuckles yelled. “Well, now that I have you both, where is she?” Eggman asked. “She, what are you talking about?” Luigi asked. “General Rose went missing after the incident on Yoshi's Island, I supose you have something to do with that.” Eggman siad. “We don't know what happened to Rose, she just vanished.” Knuckles said. “Well then, I'd just destroy you before you can make things harder.” Eggman said. “Wait, we can search for Rose.” Luigi said. “Luigi, are you crazy?” Knuckles asked. “That sounds interesting.” Eggman said. “I've done this before, just don't back stab us.” Luigi said. “Very well Luigi, if you can find Rose alive, then I might give you something.” Eggman said. “I promise to find her, right Knuckles, you'll all help.” Luigi said. “Your crazy.” Knuckles said. (Eggman walked to the controls and pressed a button which allowed the two to get up from the floor. Eggman went back to the two and grabbed Luigi by the wrist) “Listen plumber, you'd better do it.” Eggman said. (Knuckles was about to punch, but Eggman squeezed harder on Luigi's wrist, causing the green plumber to moan in pain. Knuckles stopped) “Where was the last known location of Rose?” Knuckles asked. “Farther in the desert is the moutains where snow falls, Rose last appeared in a blizzard before being cut off.” Eggman said. “Got it, we'll search there.” Luigi said. (Eggman let go of Luigi's wrist and he walked off to Knuckles) “Just remember, no tricks.” Knuckles said. (The two left the room as Eggman continued to work on the controls on his computer.
Meanwhile, with Luigi and Knuckles, they continued their way through the hallway leading to the outside) “Sorry Knuckles, I didn't know what Eggman was going to do.” Luigi said. “So now we have to find Rose, maybe Eggman will tell us where Sonic is.” Knuckles said. “Sonic, he's in trouble?” Luigi asked. “Yes, kiddnapped by these guys, that's half the reason why were here.” Knuckles said. “What's the other reason?” Luigi asked. “Searching for the Chaos Emeralds and Dark Jewels.” Knuckles explained. “Dark Jewels?” Luigi asked. “They are from my dimension.” Someone said. (The two males looked back and saw W with her nine tails) “W, is that really you, your voice sounds fimilear?” Knuckles asked. “Yes, it's me, the person that helped you get to Yoshi's Island, also, I didn't know that you were good with memories of voices.” W said. “You look quite different from other foxes.” Luigi said. “Of course, since you are not from my dimension, you've never heard of the legends.” W said. “We should do the talking after getting out of here.” Knuckles said. “Sounds like a good idea.” Luigi said. (The three rushed out for the opened door.
Outside, they found the group with machine parts. The group noticed Knuckles, Luigi, and W) “You two, you went inside and found another girl?” Ivory asked. “Yeah, but listen, we have a deal with Eggman.” Knuckles said. “A deal, who's the dummy that thought that up?” Shade asked. (Luigi looked down to the sand) “Luigi, you did it?” Tiffany asked. “Yeah, Eggman wants us to find Rose, we were stuck to the floor and a memory popped in my head, I did something like this before, searching for a lost female.” Luigi said. “So it reminds you of the past, but will Eggman help us after we give back that feline?” Ivory asked. “Maybe he might reveal the location of Sonic.” Knuckles said. “That's a good idea, we should start searching!” Tails said. “W, did Luigi and Knuckles find you?” Shade asked. “No, I found them myself.” W said. “W, your a nine tailed fox?” Tails asked. “Yes I am, but I am known as Mille.” Mille introduced. “Well, at least your staying with us, right?” Cream asked. “Yes, I'm not going to leave, now, about Rose.” Mille said. “Yes, Eggman told us that there were mountains covered in snow, mentioning that Rose disapeared.” Luigi explained. “Just like my vision.” Ivory said. “You activated another Avorio Storico?” Shade asked. “Yes, this time, there were two figures, they were talking to a Lakitu and it mentioned about moutains within a blizzard.” Ivory explained. “You know how to get there Mille?” Amy asked. “Yes, like before, just follow me.” Mille said. (She walked off and the others followed) “Never knew that a random person would be a nine tailed fox.” Tails said. “Don't be rude.” Amy said. (They were walking again, through the desert.
After man miles, the group made it past the city and were now into a forest. There were moutains and their halfway part was covered by mist. As they walked through it, the trees were beganing to change from ever green to having little icicles. Forward, snow began to devolpe as it was thin and easily breakable. Now trees fully corrupted in ice, was snow also appearing, piling up as the group went forward. Little snow flurries were falling from the mist above, making things colder. The group was now at the moutains. They were very huge and had many ledges suitible for climbing. Everyone was reaching for the ledges while Knuckles and Rouge were climbing up the walls. Tails and Cream flew up while landing on the ledges for short breaks. Tiffany was on Shade's back while Luigi was shaking as Peach was holding his leg) “Peach, why are you holding onto my leg?” Luigi asked. “I need something to help me climb, do you know what I'm wearing?” Peach asked. “Yes princess, sorry I said something wrong.” Luigi said. “Don't worry, at least your helping me.” Peach said. “I just hope Mario is doing much better then me.” Luigi thought. (They all continued to climb the mountain.
The whole climb was secuesful as everyone had made it to the top of the moutains. It was very flat with the view obscured by a blizzard. It was all gray with only white pellets of snow blowing by very quickly) “How can we find Rose in this condition?” Peach asked. “We walk through it till we find something.” Knuckles said. “Just keep together, hold hands.” Cream said. (They all grabbed onto each others hands and all began to walk through the blizzard.
Meanwhile, the yellow rain coat wearing Magikoopa was with Bowser at a throne room) “Lord Bowser, it seems that Luigi and his friends are off at the Eternal Blizzard Moutains.” The Magikoopa said. “Why there, of all places, not one of the Koop Troop are near there.” Bowser said. “I don't know, but they were mentiong General Rose.” The Magikoopa said. “Rain Coat, I want you to brave the storm and find Rose.” Bowser ordered. “What, that feline, we already stole something from that group, why kidnap a person?” Rain Coat asked. “Did you forget what I always do?” Bowser asked. “Forgive me, I just had bad memory.” Rain Coat said. “No wonder that your wearing a rain coat inside, lets see if we can get Rose, soon, those two groups will fight.” Bowser said. “Well, we did steal this base from that commander, I wonder where he is.” Rain Coat said. “Oh, we just threw him to the ocean.” Bowser explained. (A Gooma ran in) “Bowser, we made sure that he is locked up, but we also found a big door.” The Goomba said. “Well, what did the door have?” Rain Coat asked. “Quiet rain coat, excelent that he is somewhere heavily guarded.” Bowser said. “We have plenty of troops near the cell.” The Goomba said. “That sounds great, now about that door.” Rain Coat said. “Well, it has two key holes, we searched around, but found nothing.” The Goomba explained. “Just ignore it for now, get my Clown Car ready for an icy expidition.” Bowser said. (The Goomba nodded and ran off) “Bowser, are you going to drag me in this?” Rain Coat asked. “Yes, the other Magikoopas are busy, so your the only one left for the job Rain Coat.” Bowser said. “But what about your new ally, where is he?” Rain Coat asked. “I'm sure that he is in the same place as usual, he's just new to this whole thing.” Bowser said. “But what if he fails?” Rain Coat asked. “Be quiet or I will fry you!” Bowser yelled. “Okay, I'll be quiet!” Rain Coat yelled. (Bowser crossed his arms and waited for the Clown Car to be ready.
Meanwhile, Knuckles and everyone were now at a big mansion in the distance. Getting closer, it was large having two big stories. The main house part was white with green pillars, rails, and other details consumed in ice. There were thick icicles hanging on the bottom of the roof. The group walked towards it and Peach grabbed onto the big silver Koopa Shell handle and twisted it a bit. It wouldn't budge) “It's frozen solid, how can we get through?” Tiffany asked. “I'll get us in.” Knuckles said. (He walked up to the door and punched it. Some ice began to crack and Knuckles punched again. Five more times, and the door opened quickly. Inside, there were four open doors with icicles hanging from the top. Two to the sides and two more in front away from a large staircase. The floor was consumed in ice with the red carpet underneath. Above was a chandiler with giant icicles hanging on. The staircase had more icicles and the steps were consumed in the white ice. There was a picture in a black and white color of a Koopa Family covered in small ice crystals. The group fully entered inside and Shadow closed the door) “So is everyone here?” Amy asked. “Amy, I think we're missing three people.” Tiffany said. “What, wait, (Amy looks around) Luigi, Ivory, Mille, their not here!” Amy said. “Chao!” The three chao said. “We have to go out there and find them.” Knuckles said. “No, I know they'll get here.” Shade said. “I hope so.” Peach said. (The group began to move around the house, not knowing that outside, a figure watched.
In the blizzard, Ivory, Luigi, and Mille were walking. There was nothing to be seen except the knee high snow and gray hiding the rest of the world. Mille and Ivory were holding hands while Luigi was struggeling to move by the cold weather) “How close do you believe we are?” Ivory asked. “I have no clue, but at this rate, we won't find anything.” Mille said. (They heard a loud noise and looked back. The two found Luigi on the ground with his face burried in the snow. Ivory went up to Luigi and touched his body. He was very cold) “Luigi, get up!” Ivory yelled. “He's unconsis, Ivory, get him on your back!” Mille ordered. “Okay, (Ivory took off her bag and then grabbed Luigi and Mille went behind. The fox pushed Luigi up so Ivory could grab Luigi's hands. It worked as Ivory strongly gripped Luigi's hands and felt the snow on his white gloved hands. Just shortly after Luigi was on Ivory's back, his green hat blowed away in the snow and Mille caught it. The Kitsune put Luigi's hat in Ivory's bag and held onto it) nice catch, now let's get going.” Ivory said. (The two continued to walk through the barren place as the wind was howling.
After a while, the two were tired as they were now strugleing to move. Before, Luigi was almost not that heavy, but now, he was like a weight. Ivory fell to her knees as Mille stopped) “Ivory, are you okay?” Mille asked. “Yeah, it seems that I can't go on, I'm sorry that this has to happen to you.” Ivory said. “No, I'm sure we're close, just a few more steps.” Mille said. “I can't move, my legs are already weak, just find the others.” Ivory said. “I'm staying with you.” Mille said. (She grabbed onto Ivory's arms and was trying to drag her through the snow) “Thanks.” Ivory said. (Right when Mille was to continue, they heard a roar. The two girls looked around as they saw a giant figure. Mille got up and saw the creature raising it's head. There was an icy breath, and everything went black)
“Luigi, Luigi, wake up.” Someone said. (Luigi began to open his eyes. The first thing he saw was Mille still having Ivory's bag on her arm. Luigi sat up and looked around. They were both in a birdcage made of ice inside of an icy cave with red crystals. Luigi made it to the many bars and looked down. He saw thin ice below and above, the cage was hanging by an icy chain. Luigi went back to Mille) “What happened?” Luigi asked. “You passed out in the blizzard, and a giant creature appeared and possibly freezed us.” Mille explained. “So that's what happened, oh, I'm so cold.” Luigi said. (He went over to Mille and went behind her so he could wrap himself around Mille's nine tails. Mille made some of her tails wrap around Luigi and he smiled as he felt the warmth of the fox's fur) “We have to find out where Ivory and the others are, I think Ivory might have something in this bag.” Mille said. “Can't we just rest, I'm still tired after that walk.” Luigi said. “Alright, we'll rest.” Mille said. (She sat down and starred at the red gems as Luigi fell asleep.
After a while, Mille heard Luigi yawn and looked back. She saw Luigi rubbing his eyes which made her smile. Luigi got up and looked around) “So you have any idea on how to get out of here?” Luigi asked. “Well, (Mille gave Luigi Ivory's bag) look what's inside.” Mille said. (Luigi reached in and picked out the Fire Flower) “Oh, we're so lucky we have one, Mille, do you want a bite?” Luigi asked. “Yes, now let's hurry.” Mille said. (They both ate the Fire Flower and both glowed white. The light died down to reveal Luigi with green overalls and a white shirt and cap with the circle having a brighter white. Mille had a white feather appear on her forhead and wraped around her wrists and tails) “We now have the power of fire!" Luigi said. “Yes, now lets get out of here.” Mille said. (Luigi pointed to a bar and a fire ball escaped from his hand. It hit the bar and it began to melt. Mille threw fire from her hands and melted the bars. The two looked down and saw the thin ice. Luigi looked at Mille) “Can you fly?” Luigi asked. “No, but we have to risk it, just grab my tail and we'll fall down.” Mille said. “Okay, just don't break the ice.” Luigi said. (They both jumped and landed on the ice. It began to crack. Luigi ran off towards the snow nearby and Mille followed. The two made it to the snow and saw an opening.
They walked forward and saw the blizzard raging outside. Mille walked forward and felt Luigi grab two of her tails. The two began to walk back into the blizzard. The wind was more harsher as snow was sticking to the seven other tails) “Oh, such a storm.” Mille said. “Yeah, hey Mille, where do you believe Rose will be?” Luigi asked. “No clue, but that means we can't give up.” Mille said. “I can agree with that, I've been through things like this.” Luigi said. “If that's so, then why do you believe that Rose is here?” Mille asked. “I don't know why, maybe she was being chased or attacked by something.” Luigi said. “Chased or attacked, what made you believe that?” Mille asked. “I just think that may have happened, I hope she hasn't got hurt.” Luigi said. “We just need to go forward and find her.” Mille said. (They continued to walk through the blizzard and beyond.
The two had made it to the still frozen masion. Luigi shivered from the cold as they went towards the big house. There was the ice now just building up. Mille had opened the door and the two entered inside) “So where do we go from here?” Luigi asked. “Shall we split up?” Mille asked. “Um, can I stay with you?” Luigi asked. “Why, is there something wrong?” Mille asked. “Yeah, this place is as if the Boos fake mansion is placed at the Secret Mine.” Luigi explained. “I think I can see it, but lets go forward.” Mille said. “Okay.” Luigi said. “Remember, you got a Fire Flower.” Luigi thought. (The two entered through the opening.
They were now in a big room with the colors of a classic brown. There was a fireplace and in front was a coffe table surrounded by two sofas pushed to the left and right sides of the table. A chandiler was above in the center and many candles on it. All of them were now on fire) “Fire in a frozen place like this, someone else must be here.” Mille said. “Oh dear, who or what could it be?” Luigi asked. “Remain calm, focus on what we need to find, the others and Rose.” Mille said. "Okay, (Luigi walked forward and looked upon the table. He found frozen glass mugs with frozen chocolate milk. Plates with cookies and buiscits, and a green and golden book on the right sofa) well, nothing here, just items.” Luigi said. (He saw Mille leave the room and the plumber rushed to where Mille went.
Luigi entered into the room on the where Mille went. Inside was a kitchen. The stove and other electronics were frozen shut still shining their silver gleam. The cabinits were a classic brown and had black handles. The pots and pans were of a silver color. There were also Koopa servents encased in opaque light blue ice holding onto silver trays, even more Koopa chefs wearing white hats suffered the same fate. Near them was Mille who was checking them) “Mille, what are you doing?” Luigi asked. “Just checking on these statues.” Mille said. (Luigi took step forward and slipped on the ice. He rammed right into a statue and it exploded. Inside was bones and a skull. The skull went right in front of Luigi as he hit a wall. Luigi saw the skull and screamed as he ran out of the room almost in a flash) “Oh dear, we'll, I'd better find him.” Mille thought. (She went into the room right next to the fridge and went inside.
Inside, Mille saw herself in a big ballroom having two balconys leading to other rooms near the roof. There were paintngs of beutifal flowers on the walls. The ceiling was white with green Koopa shell tiles. The floor was pearly white with there being marble pillars and a foutain in the center. There was golden chandiliears and hanging on one was Luigi who had his eyes shut) “Please don't come, please don't come.” Luigi whispered. “Luigi, come down here!” Mille yelled. (Luigi opened his eyes to see the Kitsune near the opening to the kitchen) “Mille, is it safe?” Luigi asked. “Yes, the statues didn't attack, you were just clumsy there!” Mille yelled. “Okay, but please catch me.” Luigi said. (Right when he was about to let go, the chandalier began to loosen. Luigi had quickly out of stress released fire balls which lit up the candles. One of them had hit the foutain's top which lit it up. A circle appeared around the fountain and the circle fell to form stairs. The chandalier had gone stable again as Luigi fell. Mille had quickly caught Luigi) “Are you okay Luigi?” Mille asked. “Yeah, but what's going on with the foutain?” Luigi asked. “Stairs, where does it lead too?” Mille asked. “Well, there's only one way to find out.” Luigi said. (They both went down the stairs leading to the unknown as someone watched.
Deep down, it was getting much colder. They made it to the bottom where there was a path of lanturns all without fire and with icicles hanging on the bottoms) “We must be very deep under the mansion.” Mille said. “Well, how could our friends find this place?” Luigi asked. “I don't know, but I know that we are not alone.” Mille said. (Luigi looked back to find nothing) “Are you sure, because I've always known wether me and Mario were followed.” Luigi said. “I can sense it, but let's keep going.” Mille said. (The two ran off as Luigi only looked back a few seconds while trying to keep calm. Mille grabbed his arm as they made it to a fork in the road) “What now?” Luigi asked. “I don't know, but we should leave a mark on where we are.” Mille said. (She fired a fire ball at a lanturn and lit it up to form a shadow) “So which way do we go?” Luigi asked. (Mille looked around till she found markings underneath the ice. She knelt down and analyzed it) “I see, well, we take the right path.” Mille said. “Where does the left one lead?” Luigi asked. “I have no clue, but it's better to stick with what we've got.” Mille said. (The two continued to walk on, not knowing of the lanturn's shadow forming to something else.
After a long freezing walk, the two made it to a giant door of ice. The two managed to melt through it and enter inside. The room was large and had the red crystals from before as well as giant ice pillars. On the snow was massive amounts of treasues and a hill of snow. The two went forward and went up to the snow. Luigi rubbed on it as the snow began to fall. When enough snow was gone, it revealed Rose with horror on her face. Luigi jumped seeing the cat frozen with fear) “Um, Mille, we found her.” Luigi said. “Great job Luigi, now lets get her out of here.” Mille said. “I congradulate the both of you, but it won't be you that gets to melt the ice.” Someone said. (Both Mille and Luigi looked to see an saw an anthromorphic black wolf. He had an extended muzzle with thick fur on the sides. His nose was round with two holes for nostrils. The ears were like streched triangles. The legs were black as well as his tail. He wore silver armor with a helmet and a visor covering the eyes. All that was revealed was messy gray hair from the sides. The chest and back were with silver armor. While the breastplate had a crecent moon, the back had two openings for leather bags being covered by a shield. The symbol was a dark blue front forming the Corvus Constilation and a full moon in the center. There was armor on the arms with the metal on the forarms outer sides having a crescent moon blade. The boots had thick armor plates. The gauntlets were of silver. On the wrists were two rings. On the right was a black liquid ring with four crystal gems. They were an emerald leaf, a sapphire tear, ruby fire, and a diamond hexagon. The ruby was glowing. On the left was a rusty golden ring with an old pocket watch on the front slowly going in reverse. Around it were the numbers reaching up to twelve and thin silver lines behind the numbers. The wolf walked forward) “Who are you?” Luigi asked. “I am known as Hunter the Wolf.” Hunter introduced. “ well, what do you want?” Luigi asked. “I cam here for General Rose, you see, I was hired by the Dictator to get her back from this blizzard, thanks to you two of course.” Hunter explained. “Listen Hunter, we came here and we want to find our friends, so help us and Sonic.” Luigi said. “Sorry mister, but I also have to prevent you from rescuing Sonic, so prepare yourselves to go home crying.” Hunter said. (Fire began to form on his right hand.
Hunter unleashed a wave of fire and it almost hit Luigi. Luigi ducked and saw Mille fire a fire ball from her hand. Hunter jumped over it, but saw Luigi jump up and did a ground pound. Luigi moved away as Hunter got up from being flattened. The wolf had then fired a wave of ice. Mille and Luigi fired a fire ball and avoided the ice spikes rising from the ground. The two fires had hit Hunter and caused the hexagon on the ring to crack and loose it's glow. Hunter had glared at the two heroes before unleashing water as the sapphire glowed. It hit Luigi and made him slam into a wall. He fell to the ground gasping for air as he saw Mille slam her tails onto Hunter's shield) “Why do you wish to stop us?” Mille asked. “It's like yourselves, but I was just hired for the job.” Hunter explained. (He unleashed a wave of water and it had pushed Mille away. He went over to her, but got hit by a hammer. Hunter hit the ground and managed to see Luigi ready to strike again. The emerald gem glowed and thus formed plants which wrapped around Luigi. Mille had throwed fire balls and they hit Hunter in the back. The emerald gem had cracked a bit and Hunter moved towards Rose. Right when he was about to activate the ruby, cold and powerful wind began to blow and push everyone but Rose back. The three hit a wall as a giant crystal of ice appeared. It began to shatter.
Inside of the crystal was a huge amount of bones which risen up to form ice around. The ice was now acting like it's muscles and skin. A yellow glow appeared to it's eyes of the big skull) “Now what do we have here?” The Ice Dragon asked. “I came here for General Rose.” Hunter explained. “You don't look to interesting to fight, just a knight.” The Ice Dragon said. “You insult me, have you read about what knight fight in legends?” Hunter asked. “I don't care about what history says, I can destroy you easily.” The Ice Dragon said. (Hunter unleashed a huge amount of fire at the dragon and it blowed the fire away with a powerful icy breath. Hunter got blown away as Luigi fired fire balls at a rapid rate. They were hitting the Ice Dragon and he looked down to see the young plumber. The Ice Dragon raised it's leg and was about to crush Luigi. Hunter grabbed Luigi and they both got away from the giant foot. Mille had thrown some fire balls as the Ice Dragon was distracted. It hit the Ice Dragon in the check and he slammed his tail onto the wall. This caused icicles to fall from the celing and slam into the ground. Luigi and Hunter were moving around avoiding the falling ice as Mille was throwing fire balls. When the ice stopped falling, Hunter unleashed an infreno and it hit the Ice Dragon's leg. It fell down as more ice covering the jaw had cracked. Luigi had his hammer out and he slammed it right onto the Ice Dragon's forehead. The dragon moved back in pain and had unleashed a wave of ice from his wings. More ice had risen from the ground and had surrounded the trio. The three jumped from the ice and Mille threw fire balls, Hunter unleashed a wave of fire, and Luigi slammed his hammer into the Ice Dragon's face. It melted the face off and the skull fell to the ground. Water then splashed onto the trio from the neck. The body began to run around recksly as it was slamming into walls causing an avalance. The snow and big chunks of ice had fallen. Hunter noticed an icicle and grabbed onto the two as Mille fired another fire ball before the trio disapeared as the cave collasped.
A portal opened underneath and Mille, Luigi, and Hunter came out upside down. The whole place was covered in darkness with glass platforms above purple lava in an open field with many volcanos around) “Where are we?” Luigi asked. “Inside of the Umbra Realm, a place hidden by the many worlds.” Hunter explained. (Luigi looked to the floor to see nothing but snow) “If so, are we underneath the avalance?” Luigi asked. “Yes, I managed to enter into a shadow, you should be greatful for this power.” Hunter said. “But what about Rose?” Mille asked. “Oh, her, you have to take us back to the room.” Luigi ordered. “I can't, there's no shadow to be found here, look around, (Both Luigi and Mille looked around to see the darkness) there are no Sun Spheres.” Hunter said. “Sun Spheres?” Luigi asked. “Yes, they are the portals to the Sol World.” Hunter explained. (He began to walk off and the two followed.
The group were walking on a path with purple lava on both sides. The two heroes looking around) “So why is there lava?” Luigi asked. “Do you remember what happened, there was a cave in, the Umbra Realm is the opposite of different places.” Hunter explained. “So if we were in a volcano, then we would be in a snow covered field?” Luigi asked. “Correct, the world changes but the floor remains the same to where you are going in the Sol World.” Hunter expained. “That fire we emited, it made a shadow.” Mille said. “Are you talking about how I got to your location before the dragon showed up?” Hunter asked. “Yes.” Mille said. “Well, I do thank you for that.” Hunter said. “I won't thank you until you tell us what happened to our friends.” Luigi said. “Well, I have no clue what happened to the others, they went to the mansion and when I entered inside, they were gone, not anywhere to be found.” Hunter explained. “But what about Ivory, she was with us in the blizzard.” Luigi said. “Ivory, I didn't see any creatures around when I came in.” Hunter said. “So if she isn't in the mansion, then where could she and everyone else be?” Luigi asked. “Can I get a thanks?” Hunter asked. “Yeah, alright, thanks, but I can ask you one more thing?” Luigi asked. “Sure, go on ahead.” Hunter said. “How did you get hired to begin with?” Luigi asked. “By the Dictator, bounty hunters like myself always search for the highest reward, and about two hundred Star Tears.” Hunter explained. “Well, that's a lot of anything.” Luigi said. “Yeah, I also do it for adventure.” Hunter said. “So why do you wear that armor, what is the point of those two bags?” Mille asked. “Well, I can't say why, it's a secret I intend to keep.” Hunter said. (Going forward, the three saw a sphere of light glowing yellow) “What's that?” Luigi asked. “Ah, it's a Sun Sphere, all we do is jump into it and we're out of here.” Hunter said. “Very well, and by the ground, it looks as if we're going to be back where the lanturns were.” Mille said. (Hunter grabbed onto the two and the three jumped into the Sun Sphere.
Entering back, the three went out of the shadow and were now in the same icy cave with the lanturns as before. The trio had began to rush to the right deeper back to where they ounce were. They quickly made it back to the collasped cave and Hunter was about to unleash a wave of fire, but nothing came out. Hunter looked upon his element ring to see the fire ruby broken) “Great, looks like you two have to melt while I wait.” Hunter said. “Okay, but you should at least move the ice.” Luigi said. (The two began to unleash fire balls while Hunter was pushing ice rocks aside, some even larger then himself.
The ice rocks were mostly melted or pushed away to reveal more of the room. There was sight of the Ice Dragon's foot only bones due to the water melting from the heat of the fire balls. More rocks were melted to reveal something encased in ice. Within the monster's stomach was something frozen. Upon closer inspection, it revealed a person. It was wearing blue armor and had a light blue arms, legs, and the stomach and back. The boots and forarms were pure blue and the hands were white. The upper body armor had two gray parts near the bottom of the blue going around to the back. The shoulder pads were sphere shape. The armor below the stomach part was blue armor. The helmet was again blue with light blue on the upper part and was raised all the way to the back. The sides and above the face was light blue and there were black ear pieces with red gems. The front of the helmet and below the thick stripe was a red gem in the shape of an insoles trapezoid. The person's eyes were closed looking as if it was sleeping) “What a weird find, let's get this guy out of here before another collapsing, you melt more ice while I deal with this.” Hunter ordered. “But wasn't the gem damaged?” Luigi asked. “I know, but the gem managed to recover, go find Rose now.” Hunter said. (He threw a wave of fire and it began to melt the ice while the other two fired more fire balls around the area. The ice encasing the blue armored person melted down and the person fell to the ground as water was on the ground. Hunter began to hear a cough and saw it was the blue person. It looked up to Hunter and he saw the green irises staring at him) “Who are you, where am I?” The person asked. (Both Mille and Luigi went up to Hunter) “You quickly woke up, just calm down, my name is Hunter, these two are Mille and Luigi.” Hunter explained. “A human, with human like animals?” The person asked. “Luigi, he knows of your species more then us, try to talk to him.” Hunter said. (Luigi walked up to the person) “Yes, I am in deed a human, what were you doing inside of the Ice Dragon's stomach?” Luigi asked. “I remember, searching for them, I couldn't find them anywhere, then I went here and found that beast.” The person explained. “Them, you have friends?” Luigi asked. “Yes, my friends, Zero, Axl, where are you?” The person asked. “Hey, calm down, it wasn't your fualt that their gone, we can help.” Hunter said. “You mean, you'll help me find my friends?” The person asked. “We are telling the truth, but first, can you tell us your name?” Mille asked. “My name, I'm Megaman X, but everyone calls me X.” X introduced. “Nice to meet you Megaman X, don't get all gloomy.” Luigi said. (X managed to get up and form a confident smile) “We should head back to the base, there's no sign of Rose or anyone else besides us.” Hunter said. “Should we go through the shadows again?” Luigi asked. “That's easy, at least we won't freeze to death.” Hunter said. “Right, let's head to the base.” X said. (He began to walk off and the others followed) “Well, this wasn't mentioned in the job description, but I'll go with it.” Hunter thought.
(Making it back to the lit lanturn, Hunter managed to get the three and himself back into the Umbra Realm. Everything was still the same, glass floor, upside down, purple lava. Hunter walked forward) “We can easily get to the base quickly, this way!” Hunter yelled. (He and the others ran off, leaving the Sun Sphere in the darkness. Deeper through the open field, there was more purple lava, but more volcanos were appearing. There was a hill in the center made of glass. The group got on top of the glass to see the ballroom of the mansion) “We're at least making progress, but which way is Shy Guy Desert?” Luigi asked. “I know that it's by the burning forest.” Hunter said. “Burning forest?” X asked. “Yeah, this world is opposite of the Light World, also it is a false dark future.” Hunter explained. (A volcano erupted making a loud noise) “Should we be aware of the volcanos?” Luigi asked. “Not really, their far away from us.” Hunter said. “X, how did you get to this dimension to begin with?” Mille asked. “Another dimension, so I'm somewhere else?” X asked. “Look at all three of us, we're different then you and the people of your dimension.” Mille said. “Yeah, (X looked more at Luigi) he's not like the humans from my world, to see a fox with nine tails, and a um, what are you?” X asked. “I'm a wolf, and also a bounty hunter.” Hunter explained. “Bounty hunters, reminds me of Mavericks.” X said. “Mavericks?” Luigi asked. “Me and my friends are Maverick Hunters, the Mavericks are machines that rebel against humans.” X explained. “Sounds bad, but can you explain upon what happened before we met?” Luigi asked. “From what memory serves, we were at a party, me, and my two friends were attacked by machines in the looks of you two.” X said. (He pointed to both Mille and Hunter) “They are known as Anthroloids, machines in the forms of us animals and others.” Hunter explained. “So why are you all here, did you know of me?” X asked. “No, me and Mille were searching for a cat named Rose.” Luigi explained, “And I was hired to find her by the Dictator.” Hunter explained. “So your both searching for this Rose, well, at least I know more of what's going on.” X said. (They continued to walk through the magma filled place.
They had made it to a purple ever fire forest. There were paths while there were rivers of yellow poison making trails to the burning trees. The glass floor had revealed the forest at the bottom of the moutain) “We're getting closer to the base, all that's mostly left to cross is the white ocean.” Hunter explained. “It sounds like you've been here before.” Luigi said. “Yeah, I've been exploring this dimension's Umbra Realm for quite a while, mostly because I was following you.” Hunter explained. “Well, this looks really sad.” X said. “Calm down X, Hunter said that this was another world, just look below you, the forest is better.” Luigi said. (X looked down to see the forest through the glass) “Yeah, (X looks and pointed forward) hey, I can see the ocean!” X said. (They saw the ocean which was in a white color. There was many waves hitting the revealed tree roots. Hunter took a step into the water and waited for the others to jump in. The other three got into the water and X sank down) “Um, is X going to be okay?” Luigi asked. “Sure, well, I do hope that he follows us.” Hunter said. “Well, let's get going.” Mille said. (The three began to swim while underneath the ocean, X was following them.
Meanwhile, in another place, in a dark prison room, Mario was sitting on the ground as there was a ring around his neck being connected by a chain on the wall. The walls were a dull and dark gray with another chain as there was a heavy iron door with many locks. Mario sighed as he closed his eyes. He heard a loud noise, the iron door was opening. Bowser came in with a smile on his face) “Bowser, what do you want this time?” Mario asked. “Oh, nothing much, I just wanted to say that your Princess is now safe in her cell.” Bowser said. “You have Peach, let her go!” Mario ordered. (Bowser laughed) “Me, let her go, she doesn't have an umbrella anymore, soon, I'll have your little brother in my grasp.” Bowser said. “Don't hurt Luigi!” Mario yelled. (He tried to run, but the chain had pulled him back and he hit the wall) “Calm down Mario, I'm sure that he'll die a painful death.” Bowser said. “Don't hurt him!” Mario yelled. “Well, I'm sure you can calm down with this green person.” Bowser said. (Two Koopa guards came in with Rose who had a ring attached to her neck with the Eggman symbol. The two had went up to the other chain and they had attached it to the ring already around Rose's neck) “Bowser, why Rose?” Mario asked. “Well, since you and her are both important to two groups, it will be easy to take them down.” Bowser explained. (He and the two Koopas went out of the room, leaving Mario and Rose. The plumber saw Rose sitting down on her knees with her eyes closed) “Rose, are you okay?” Mario asked. “Why should I continue?” Rose asked. “What do you mean?” Mario asked. “I was such a fool, to go out to the snow storm, where everything is cold.” Rose said. “You went out to a blizzard, why?” Mario asked. “I felt like I was chased by something, perhaps it was my fear to live on, there's no hope.” Rose explained. “No, I'm sure that fear was a reason to run, but for life, why?” Mario asked. “I have no future, all I do know is that I'm a general for a war, for now, it feels like the battle will never end.” Rose said. “Don't get down on yourself like that, (Mario walked forward, stopping when he reached the chain's limit, just right near Rose) I may not be in your dimension, but the war will end, you just have to get up and keep on fighting.” Mario said. “But what side I am on is wrong, it's of evil and there's no hero to save us from our corrupted lives.” Rose said. “Why don't you quit or escape?” Mario asked. “There's no way I can, with the chains bound to me, I can't do anything.” Rose explained. “You mean the one around your neck?” Mario asked. “No, there are more chains then you think.” Rose said. “You must miss your family. “Mario said. “I have none, all I do know is that I'm the last of the family.” Rose said. “What happened to them?” Mario asked. (Rose raised her head up) “They were killed by them, all of my brothers, my father, those two, one of them almost killed me, but I survived, unlike the rest of my family.” Rose said. “So you lost your entire family, but who were the killers?” Mario asked. “My memories of that incident were erased, but after the painful seizures, I saw one with green armor fighting me.” Rose explained. “Seizures, that must be painfull.” Mario said. “In deed it is, I just can't let go of that memory, knowing that my whole family is gone and I couldn't do anything.” Rose said. “How old were you when it happened?” Mario asked. “Two years old, yes, I was that young and I tried to fight.” Rose explained. “So young, it must be very painful.” Mario thought. “Why did you want to talk to me, it feels as if you care.” Rose said. “Yeah I care about all my friends, and I'm very kind.” Mario said. “Well, at least I get to talk to someone, (She got up and hugged the plumber) thanks.” Rose said. (Rose let go) “So, what do you want to talk about next?” Mario asked. “About your brother, do you think he'll save us?” Rose asked. “Yeah, I have confidence in him, so I know that he'll come and save the day.” Mario said. “No wonder your called the Super Mario Bros., but thanks for that, unfortenutly, I can't use my powers get us out of here.” Rose said. “It's alright, Luigi will come.” Mario said. (Rose laughed) “Yeah, I know he will, but thanks for cheering me up, a general that wishes to kill is being happy by a plumber.” Rose said. “Hey, don't mention it, there is nothing left to do.” Mario said. “Yeah, maybe when this war is over, we can be friends.” Rose said. “What, I think your jumping a little too early.” Mario said. “Oh don't worry, I won't be a best friend, just a simple friend with a bad back story.” Rose said. “I guess so, just don't get in the way when Bowser kidnaps Peach.” Mario said. “Bowser's really into Peach, I mean, why does he kidnap her so many times?” Rose asked. “Well, Bowser wants to take over the Mushroom Kingdom and marry Peach, yeah, quite the bad image.” Mario said. “Eww, a turtle with a human, bad thoughts!” Rose yelled. (Mario laughed as Rose finished yelling) “That was pretty good, so what should we talk about now?” Mario asked. “Oh nothing in paticular.” Rose said. “Well, I have plenty of stories of my adventures.” Mario said. (He began to talk about them to Rose, leaving them with a conversation) Bowser as a main part of this chapter? Well, where are the main four in the Umbra Realm? Will Megaman X find his friends? Of course as usual, in the next act which is already up.After a while, the group kept walking through the desert. “How much farther are we?” Peach asked. “Calm down, we're almost there.” The person said. “Can we at least know of your name?” Rouge asked. “Yes, for now, you can call me W.” W introduced. “Well, at least we don't have to just say the person or something like that.” Amy said. “Ah, I think we're almost to civilzation, I can see the buildings!” Luigi said. (Everyone looked to the distance and saw a city. The group heads forward to it and were at the walls. Noticing an opening, the group went inside to see the buildings. The city's houses were thick as the white round roofs were wider then the houses themselves. They were of a tan like the desert as the floor was of white bricks. There were brown doors and windows opened up to reveal the insides of the houses. The creatures were wearing brown robes with a white mask having three holes for eyes and a mouth) “What are these things?” Ivory asked. “Shy Guys, or Gals, quite the creatures, I've never been in this part of the desert, we've only went golfing ounce farther from here.” Luigi explained. “Well, you have quite the memory Luigi, it seems that we are in the Typical District.” W said. “So where do we go from here?” Amy asked. “Easy, we can split up and search for clues about where Rose and those two men could be.” Shade explained. “Sounds good, but is there a place we can meet up at?” Cream asked. “Yes, in the center of town is a big fountain, you can meet there.” W explained. “That sounds great, wait, you said you?” Peach asked. “I must head back to the desert, what if other travelers are lost?” W asked. “I guess you have a point, thank you for showing us the way W.” Peach said. “Anytime, farewell.” W said. (She walked off back to the opening) “Right, back to our plan.” Shade said. “Yes, we know what to do, we all split up and get information.” Knuckles said. “You heard the man, lets go.” Rouge said. (They all split up and went through the openings in between the houses, leaving Ivory, Rouge, Devil, and Knuckles) “Well, looks like we have to do some exploring.” Knuckles said. “Lets go forward.” Rouge said. (The group had entered into the building in front. It was like a mushroom house, but larger about three stories high with a white top
Inside, there were many stands in the circle shaped building with a large spiral staircase reaching up to the two other stories. Looking above, there was a circle opening on the celing while the floor was white. The stands had Shy Guys as well as Koopas and Goombas. The stands mostly had jewelery, fruits, and wooden toy planes. Rouge walked up to a Goomba wearing a sun hat with jewelery, but Knuckles grabbed Rouge's arm) “No Rouge, we're not here for gems.” Knuckles said. “I knew he would catch me.” Rouge thought. “Guys, we're here for information.” Ivory said. “Well, what do you want us to do?” Rouge asked. “Search, me and Devil can go upstairs while you two just ask.” Ivory said. (She and Devil went up the stairs along with the crowd.
Upstairs on the second floor, Ivory and Devil pushed through the crowd as Devil was on Ivory's head. They saw more of the stands) “Chao.” Devil said. “I know, but where to go?” Ivory asked. “Are you searching for something strange creature?” Someone asked. (Ivory turned around to find a stand with a creature like a Koopa, but with a different head shape and a black ring pattern on the shell. Less turtle, more human for the face. It wore black goggles and had three thick black hairs on the top of it's head. It's stand had a carpet and five baskets with the red flowers from before and five sets of Mushrooms. Three baskets were filled with normal Mushrooms while the two remaining had white Mushrooms with red hearts and another was with the red flowers) “Yeah, I'm searching for a green cat.” Ivory explained. “No cat as I could recall.” The creature said. “Well, how about Wario and Waluigi?” Ivory asked. “Those two, yeah, I saw them.” The creature said. “Where?” Ivory asked. “I can't say without payment.” The creature said. “What do you mean?” Ivory asked. “Chao?” Devil asked. “What I mean is that me and my family worked really hard for all of these Fire Flowers and Mushrooms.” The creature said. (Ivory looked up to notice the sign saying Lakitu's Mushrooms and Flowers) “Okay, I know what your saying, (Ivory looked at Devil and then back to the Lakitu. She got out twenty seven golden rings) will this work as payment?” Ivory asked. (The Lakitu grabbed one of the rings and got out a coin larger then his hands. He inspected the two and banged them both on the table) “It seems that your not from around here, but these rings are made of the same gold.” The Lakitu explained. “So does it mean I can buy something?” Ivory asked. “Of course, with this amout, you can get quite a lot.” The Lakitu explained. “What do you mean?” Ivory asked. “Whenever there's a Good Harvest where I come from, us salesmen have a sale, so two rings for a normal Mushroom, three for a Life Shroom, and five for a Fire Flower.” The Lakitu explained. “You should write that down, you do that while I decide.” Ivory said. (She and Devil looked at the wooden baskets. Ivory looked at Devil and it flew down to a Mushroom. Ivory grabbed it out and Devil pointed at it again. Ivory grabbed out three more and Devil nodded) “Chao.” Devil said. “Why do you want four?” Ivory asked. (Devil flew to the Life Shrooms) “Chao.” Devil said. “It's always hard to understand what you say.” Ivory said. (She grabbed onto a Life Shroom and Devil picked out a Fire Flower. Ivory grabbed the flower and then her finger tips glowed white) “The Avorio Storico?” Ivory thought. (The whole room changed to reveal two cloaked figures. One of them had the grasp on the same Fire Flower that Ivory was holding) “Well, this is indeed a strange place, but we need to get going, (The one with the flower looked at the Lakitu) can you tell us a location, we're lost.” Someone said. “Yeah, well, there's that blizzard, we have no clue whats going on, but you can check it out if you can.” The Lakitu said. “Right, and maybe we'll find him.” Someone #2 said. (The Avorio Storico ended with Ivory on the ground weak. She managed to get up and rubbed her head. Devil was watching and Ivory shook a bit more. The two then placed the five mushrooms and single flower onto the stand) “Is everything alright?” The Lakitu asked. “Yeah, did you see two cloaked figures?” Ivory asked. “How did you know?” The Lakitu asked. “I just want to know where they went.” Ivory explained. “I told them of the strange moutains, there is a massive blizzard and no one's made it back.” Lakitu explained. “Thanks, I'll keep this information.” Ivory said. “Right, well, the stuff you picked out will be sixteen rings please.” The Lakitu said. (Ivory gave out the fiftheen rings as one was already in Lakitu's grasp. He was about to grab a basket behind the stand, but Devil grabbed the items and placed them into Ivory's bag) “Thanks Devil, now, about that information.” Ivory said. “Again, you're just curios aren't you, the two, they were heading towards the Mushroom Oasis, I would question it, but I'm just here to sell stuff.” Lakitu explained. “Thank you, lets get going.” Ivory said. (She and Devil went down the spiral stairs and made it back down.
The two made it to the center of town. There was a giant fountain with many creatures walking around it. The foutain's statue was made of balls with spikes, having a face on the top ball and a flower on the top where the water was escaping. The two found Luigi sitting on the fountain's ridge) “Still nothing, I wonder where the others are.” Luigi whispered. “Hey Luigi, what are you doing?” Ivory asked. (Luigi looked and saw the tigon and chao) “Oh, its you two, did you find anything?” Luigi asked. “Yes, Rose, Wario, and Waluigi left for the Mushroom Oasis.” Ivory explained. “Really, well, thats better then nothing.” Luigi said. “So why are you standing here, I don't see the others.” Ivory said. “The only thing left is to find the others.” Luigi said. “Right, lets go forward.” Ivory said. (The three began to walk through the bazzars.
After a while, the whole group was back together. They were all at the middle of the city with the Pokey fountain) “So you found something?” Peach asked. “Yes, someone said that Wario and Waluigi were last spotted near the Mushroom Oasis, we will search for them there.” Ivory exlained. “The Mushroom Oasis, I remember about them, that was when we went golfing.” Peach explained. “Do you remember the location princess?” Knuckles asked. “Yes, it will be very easy to get to, just follow me!” Peach said. (She ran off and the others followed.
The group were at the desert walking) “So what do you believe to be at the Mushroom Oasis?” Amy asked. “I don't know, but it might be trouble.” Shade said. “Brother, is it going to be like before?” Tiffany asked. “No, we won't be running for our lives like last time.” Shade said. “What do you mean by last time?” Peach asked. “Well, Ivory had the bright idea of stealing twenty seven rings from a saloon.” Shade said. “Hey, I was only fourteen.” Ivory said. “Yeah, that was a year ago, right now, your fifteen!” Shade said. “Your only seventeen!” Ivory yelled. “Will you both stop yelling?” Tiffany yelled. “If you stop it yourself!” Shade yelled. “Big brother, ugh, your not like this most of the time.” Tiffany said. “Well, this is going to be fun.” Amy said. (The tigon and akita both continued to yell, much to everyones annoyance.
An hour had passed as the group were at an oasis in the shape of a mushroom. The water was crystal clear and there were palm trees with strange fruit in the shape of pentagons in a shade of white. Farther in the distance was two big sand dunes) “This is it, the Mushroom Oasis, I wonder what happens here.” Peach said. (Knuckles looks over to Ivory and Shade) “Have you two gotten over your argument?” Knuckles asked. “Yeah, just what is there to find around here?” Shade asked. “Those dunes in the distance, do you think they may have something?” Cream aksed. “Possibly, let's just take a look.” Shade said. (They all walked over to the dunes and went on top while Ivory was at the side of the right dune) “There's nothing here, just sand and the sky.” Amy said. “This day is just getting better and better.” Luigi said. “Calm down Luigi, if your thirsty, just get some water.” Rouge said. “I know, but I'm not all that thirsty.” Luigi said. “Hey guys!” Ivory yelled. (The whole group looked down upon Ivory to see her rubbing sand away) “Ivory, what are you doing?” Peach asked. “Come closer, I found something!” Ivory said. (The whole group went to Ivory and they saw a big metal door with the symbol of Metal Android) “That doesn't look good.” Shade said. “It must be a base, just like Rose.” Ivory said. “Should we all just barge in?” Knuckles asked. “No, we should just send on person inside to check it out.” Rouge said. “Big brother, you can do it.” Tiffany said. “Me, okay, just give me a second, Ivory, the bag.” Shade said. (Ivory got her bag out and gave Shade armor like an Anthroloid's. Shade went behind the dune and dressed up. He came back wearing an Anthroloid suit with the raised parts of armor. He was holding onto his cape and sandles. The group moved away for Shade to put his hand onto the door and pry it open) “Here's to something great.” Tiffany said. (The door closed and was shut. Everyone looked around and went over to the oasis while Shade was inside.
Inside, Shade was looking around while ajusting his visor to make sure it would hide his face and make him see in the dark. The hallway was dark with a few lights hanging up above making this place look abandonded. Shade continued to walk cautiosly hoping not to find any real Anthroloids. He continued to walk down the hallway while breathing slowly, giving off a robotic sound. Up in front was two Anthroloids holding onto cloathing looking like W's. Shade went up to the two and they saw him) “Well, another Anthroloid, which general or commander did you come from?” An Anthroloid asked. “Me, I am an elite soldier from the Dictator himself, I may not look like it, but I am of the best.” Shade explained. “Is that so, well, what are you doing here?” The other Anthroloid asked. “I came to check on Metal Android, is General Rose here as well?” Shade asked. “No, she isn't here.” An Anthroloid explained. “Well, where did you get those rags?” Shade asked. “These, we found an animal trying to break in, she almost harmed Commander Metal Android.” The other Anthroloid explained. “Where is she now?” Shade asked. “In the prison section, why do you want to know?” An Anthroloid asked. “It's none of your buisnes, did you forget who I work for?” Shade asked. “Sure, we'll just get rid of these rags.” An Anthroloid said. “I apreciate the information, I'll be off.” Shade said. (He walked off and looked around as he saw the Anthroloids leave) “I just hope they don't find Tiffany and the others.” Shade thought. (He closed his eyes as there was light escaping from an opened door. Shade grabbed onto the metal and it opened up.
Inside, there was a platform with four bridges with a giant armory below with guns and the sounds of heavy presses. There were more Anthroloids and near the edge was a holographic map with bold words. On the right part was the Prison Section spelled out. Shade walked away while turning off his night vision. He looked a bit more deeper into the big hole to see there was a conveter belt and it was mass producing the Anthroloids. Shade continued on and went into the room. There were some cells and stairs. Shade went down the stairs to find a heavily locked door with no one around. The dog went up to the door and saw a control pad with a switch. Shade flipped the switch and the locks began to open up. The akita look around as the door fully opened and he quickly went in. There was a person locked up within heavy machinery. Shade couldn't see who the person looked like easily. He took a step forward and went over to the controls next to the prisonor. The akita pressed a few buttons and pulled a switch. The locks began to open. Shade looked back hoping not to find anyone. It was still empty as he heard a moan. The prisinor was a fox, but it had nine long tails. It's fur color was of the flowers known as amaranth with thick peach lines all over the body possibly forming symbols. It had a white muzzle with fur on the ends and more peach around the unfused eyes with marigold irises. There was more amaranth hair with it being long reaching above the tails with peach tips. It wore an indigo short sleeved coat with the symbol on the back being a big white lined circle with a half indigo and half white heart and next to it being two white ovals. On the skirt part were white diamonds having a darker indigo thread connecting the white diamond shapes going around a full circle. It had short black tights and no gloves, having the heart symbol on the top of the hands. There were sandles having indigo straps with revealing parts of a heart. The Kitsune began to fall over and Shade caught it. The fox looked up upon the Akita) “You, why did you get me out?” The fox asked. “W, is that you?” Shade asked. “Wait, you were with those animals, please get me out.” W said. “Calm down, I'll help, but it's going to be risky.” Shade said. “Have any ideas?” W asked. “Yeah, but as I said before, not that easy with the guards I went through.” Shade said. “Maybe there might be something we can use.” W said. (The two looked around noticing some boxes.
After a while, Shade was walking with a big crate larger then his size. The other Anthroloids noticed him holding the crate and moved aside. Shade continued to walk as the weight was affecting his shoulders. He kept going, knowing that hopefully, he can get out of the base. Suddenly, lights flash red as a siren plays loud sounds. The other Anthroloids rush towards where Shade was and pushed him away as they were heading towards the entrance. Shade hit the ground, but the crate was still intact. The akita got up and went into another room. He looked around to make sure that no one was there. Shade opened the top of the crate to reveal the female fox) “At least your okay.” Shade said. “I heard the sirens, they must have found your friends.” W said. “Right, just stay right here while I help them.” Shade said. “Okay.” W said. (She knelt down and Shade closed the crate's top. He ran off back into the hallway passing by other Anthroloids. They all went right and Shade followed. They were in another room shaped like a box. The floor glowed and the entire group was teleported.
The whole group appeared right behind the dunes and all saw Tails and others. They prepared their blasters and fired. The whole group of robots rushed to fight with the heroes. Shade looked around and noticed his cape and sandles and went towards the dune quickly taking off his suit while trying not to be seen. The heroes were fighting against the machines as Shade jumped from behind the dune. He had slashed through one and went over to Ivory. Knuckles and Amy went through some as Tails had slammed his tails against the machines. An Anthroloid prepared it's weapon at Luigi. Luigi ducked as it fired a bullet and Luigi jumped high. He then did a ground pound and broke through the machinery. Anthroloids saw this and pointed their guns at Luigi. Luigi charged up and jumped higher and landed away from the ring of machines and was running. The Anthroloids fired more at Luigi as he rushed towards the dune wih the door. Knuckles saw Luigi trying to open the door to the base. Knuckles hurried to Luigi and punched the door open and avoid more gun fire. The two made it inside and rushed forward as there were lasers. Luigi covered his face with his hat as Knuckles was rushing through punching every locked door that blocked their way.
The two made it to the big room with the production of the Anthroloids and the holographic map was still up. There was the words Commander's Quarters which pointed up. The two went forward where there was nothing, Luigi looked back upon hearing explosions from far away. Knuckles grabbed Luigi by the shoulder and ran off towards the Commander's Quarters. They found more Anthroloids in wait protecting a door. Knuckles punched through some while Luigi used his hammer. They quickly went through the machines and Knuckles forced the door to open up. Inside was Eggman looking over a holographic map. He jumped after hearing the door slam hard. He saw the two) “Knuckles, Luigi, what a suprise to see you here!” Eggman said. “Give up Eggman, we took care of those machines.” Knuckles said. “Even without those machines, I still have defense.” Eggman said. (Guns appeared from the walls and fired plasma. Both Luigi and Knuckles were hit and stuck to the floor) “Hey, I can't get up!” Knuckles yelled. “Well, now that I have you both, where is she?” Eggman asked. “She, what are you talking about?” Luigi asked. “General Rose went missing after the incident on Yoshi's Island, I supose you have something to do with that.” Eggman siad. “We don't know what happened to Rose, she just vanished.” Knuckles said. “Well then, I'd just destroy you before you can make things harder.” Eggman said. “Wait, we can search for Rose.” Luigi said. “Luigi, are you crazy?” Knuckles asked. “That sounds interesting.” Eggman said. “I've done this before, just don't back stab us.” Luigi said. “Very well Luigi, if you can find Rose alive, then I might give you something.” Eggman said. “I promise to find her, right Knuckles, you'll all help.” Luigi said. “Your crazy.” Knuckles said. (Eggman walked to the controls and pressed a button which allowed the two to get up from the floor. Eggman went back to the two and grabbed Luigi by the wrist) “Listen plumber, you'd better do it.” Eggman said. (Knuckles was about to punch, but Eggman squeezed harder on Luigi's wrist, causing the green plumber to moan in pain. Knuckles stopped) “Where was the last known location of Rose?” Knuckles asked. “Farther in the desert is the moutains where snow falls, Rose last appeared in a blizzard before being cut off.” Eggman said. “Got it, we'll search there.” Luigi said. (Eggman let go of Luigi's wrist and he walked off to Knuckles) “Just remember, no tricks.” Knuckles said. (The two left the room as Eggman continued to work on the controls on his computer.
Meanwhile, with Luigi and Knuckles, they continued their way through the hallway leading to the outside) “Sorry Knuckles, I didn't know what Eggman was going to do.” Luigi said. “So now we have to find Rose, maybe Eggman will tell us where Sonic is.” Knuckles said. “Sonic, he's in trouble?” Luigi asked. “Yes, kiddnapped by these guys, that's half the reason why were here.” Knuckles said. “What's the other reason?” Luigi asked. “Searching for the Chaos Emeralds and Dark Jewels.” Knuckles explained. “Dark Jewels?” Luigi asked. “They are from my dimension.” Someone said. (The two males looked back and saw W with her nine tails) “W, is that really you, your voice sounds fimilear?” Knuckles asked. “Yes, it's me, the person that helped you get to Yoshi's Island, also, I didn't know that you were good with memories of voices.” W said. “You look quite different from other foxes.” Luigi said. “Of course, since you are not from my dimension, you've never heard of the legends.” W said. “We should do the talking after getting out of here.” Knuckles said. “Sounds like a good idea.” Luigi said. (The three rushed out for the opened door.
Outside, they found the group with machine parts. The group noticed Knuckles, Luigi, and W) “You two, you went inside and found another girl?” Ivory asked. “Yeah, but listen, we have a deal with Eggman.” Knuckles said. “A deal, who's the dummy that thought that up?” Shade asked. (Luigi looked down to the sand) “Luigi, you did it?” Tiffany asked. “Yeah, Eggman wants us to find Rose, we were stuck to the floor and a memory popped in my head, I did something like this before, searching for a lost female.” Luigi said. “So it reminds you of the past, but will Eggman help us after we give back that feline?” Ivory asked. “Maybe he might reveal the location of Sonic.” Knuckles said. “That's a good idea, we should start searching!” Tails said. “W, did Luigi and Knuckles find you?” Shade asked. “No, I found them myself.” W said. “W, your a nine tailed fox?” Tails asked. “Yes I am, but I am known as Mille.” Mille introduced. “Well, at least your staying with us, right?” Cream asked. “Yes, I'm not going to leave, now, about Rose.” Mille said. “Yes, Eggman told us that there were mountains covered in snow, mentioning that Rose disapeared.” Luigi explained. “Just like my vision.” Ivory said. “You activated another Avorio Storico?” Shade asked. “Yes, this time, there were two figures, they were talking to a Lakitu and it mentioned about moutains within a blizzard.” Ivory explained. “You know how to get there Mille?” Amy asked. “Yes, like before, just follow me.” Mille said. (She walked off and the others followed) “Never knew that a random person would be a nine tailed fox.” Tails said. “Don't be rude.” Amy said. (They were walking again, through the desert.
After man miles, the group made it past the city and were now into a forest. There were moutains and their halfway part was covered by mist. As they walked through it, the trees were beganing to change from ever green to having little icicles. Forward, snow began to devolpe as it was thin and easily breakable. Now trees fully corrupted in ice, was snow also appearing, piling up as the group went forward. Little snow flurries were falling from the mist above, making things colder. The group was now at the moutains. They were very huge and had many ledges suitible for climbing. Everyone was reaching for the ledges while Knuckles and Rouge were climbing up the walls. Tails and Cream flew up while landing on the ledges for short breaks. Tiffany was on Shade's back while Luigi was shaking as Peach was holding his leg) “Peach, why are you holding onto my leg?” Luigi asked. “I need something to help me climb, do you know what I'm wearing?” Peach asked. “Yes princess, sorry I said something wrong.” Luigi said. “Don't worry, at least your helping me.” Peach said. “I just hope Mario is doing much better then me.” Luigi thought. (They all continued to climb the mountain.
The whole climb was secuesful as everyone had made it to the top of the moutains. It was very flat with the view obscured by a blizzard. It was all gray with only white pellets of snow blowing by very quickly) “How can we find Rose in this condition?” Peach asked. “We walk through it till we find something.” Knuckles said. “Just keep together, hold hands.” Cream said. (They all grabbed onto each others hands and all began to walk through the blizzard.
Meanwhile, the yellow rain coat wearing Magikoopa was with Bowser at a throne room) “Lord Bowser, it seems that Luigi and his friends are off at the Eternal Blizzard Moutains.” The Magikoopa said. “Why there, of all places, not one of the Koop Troop are near there.” Bowser said. “I don't know, but they were mentiong General Rose.” The Magikoopa said. “Rain Coat, I want you to brave the storm and find Rose.” Bowser ordered. “What, that feline, we already stole something from that group, why kidnap a person?” Rain Coat asked. “Did you forget what I always do?” Bowser asked. “Forgive me, I just had bad memory.” Rain Coat said. “No wonder that your wearing a rain coat inside, lets see if we can get Rose, soon, those two groups will fight.” Bowser said. “Well, we did steal this base from that commander, I wonder where he is.” Rain Coat said. “Oh, we just threw him to the ocean.” Bowser explained. (A Gooma ran in) “Bowser, we made sure that he is locked up, but we also found a big door.” The Goomba said. “Well, what did the door have?” Rain Coat asked. “Quiet rain coat, excelent that he is somewhere heavily guarded.” Bowser said. “We have plenty of troops near the cell.” The Goomba said. “That sounds great, now about that door.” Rain Coat said. “Well, it has two key holes, we searched around, but found nothing.” The Goomba explained. “Just ignore it for now, get my Clown Car ready for an icy expidition.” Bowser said. (The Goomba nodded and ran off) “Bowser, are you going to drag me in this?” Rain Coat asked. “Yes, the other Magikoopas are busy, so your the only one left for the job Rain Coat.” Bowser said. “But what about your new ally, where is he?” Rain Coat asked. “I'm sure that he is in the same place as usual, he's just new to this whole thing.” Bowser said. “But what if he fails?” Rain Coat asked. “Be quiet or I will fry you!” Bowser yelled. “Okay, I'll be quiet!” Rain Coat yelled. (Bowser crossed his arms and waited for the Clown Car to be ready.
Meanwhile, Knuckles and everyone were now at a big mansion in the distance. Getting closer, it was large having two big stories. The main house part was white with green pillars, rails, and other details consumed in ice. There were thick icicles hanging on the bottom of the roof. The group walked towards it and Peach grabbed onto the big silver Koopa Shell handle and twisted it a bit. It wouldn't budge) “It's frozen solid, how can we get through?” Tiffany asked. “I'll get us in.” Knuckles said. (He walked up to the door and punched it. Some ice began to crack and Knuckles punched again. Five more times, and the door opened quickly. Inside, there were four open doors with icicles hanging from the top. Two to the sides and two more in front away from a large staircase. The floor was consumed in ice with the red carpet underneath. Above was a chandiler with giant icicles hanging on. The staircase had more icicles and the steps were consumed in the white ice. There was a picture in a black and white color of a Koopa Family covered in small ice crystals. The group fully entered inside and Shadow closed the door) “So is everyone here?” Amy asked. “Amy, I think we're missing three people.” Tiffany said. “What, wait, (Amy looks around) Luigi, Ivory, Mille, their not here!” Amy said. “Chao!” The three chao said. “We have to go out there and find them.” Knuckles said. “No, I know they'll get here.” Shade said. “I hope so.” Peach said. (The group began to move around the house, not knowing that outside, a figure watched.
In the blizzard, Ivory, Luigi, and Mille were walking. There was nothing to be seen except the knee high snow and gray hiding the rest of the world. Mille and Ivory were holding hands while Luigi was struggeling to move by the cold weather) “How close do you believe we are?” Ivory asked. “I have no clue, but at this rate, we won't find anything.” Mille said. (They heard a loud noise and looked back. The two found Luigi on the ground with his face burried in the snow. Ivory went up to Luigi and touched his body. He was very cold) “Luigi, get up!” Ivory yelled. “He's unconsis, Ivory, get him on your back!” Mille ordered. “Okay, (Ivory took off her bag and then grabbed Luigi and Mille went behind. The fox pushed Luigi up so Ivory could grab Luigi's hands. It worked as Ivory strongly gripped Luigi's hands and felt the snow on his white gloved hands. Just shortly after Luigi was on Ivory's back, his green hat blowed away in the snow and Mille caught it. The Kitsune put Luigi's hat in Ivory's bag and held onto it) nice catch, now let's get going.” Ivory said. (The two continued to walk through the barren place as the wind was howling.
After a while, the two were tired as they were now strugleing to move. Before, Luigi was almost not that heavy, but now, he was like a weight. Ivory fell to her knees as Mille stopped) “Ivory, are you okay?” Mille asked. “Yeah, it seems that I can't go on, I'm sorry that this has to happen to you.” Ivory said. “No, I'm sure we're close, just a few more steps.” Mille said. “I can't move, my legs are already weak, just find the others.” Ivory said. “I'm staying with you.” Mille said. (She grabbed onto Ivory's arms and was trying to drag her through the snow) “Thanks.” Ivory said. (Right when Mille was to continue, they heard a roar. The two girls looked around as they saw a giant figure. Mille got up and saw the creature raising it's head. There was an icy breath, and everything went black)
“Luigi, Luigi, wake up.” Someone said. (Luigi began to open his eyes. The first thing he saw was Mille still having Ivory's bag on her arm. Luigi sat up and looked around. They were both in a birdcage made of ice inside of an icy cave with red crystals. Luigi made it to the many bars and looked down. He saw thin ice below and above, the cage was hanging by an icy chain. Luigi went back to Mille) “What happened?” Luigi asked. “You passed out in the blizzard, and a giant creature appeared and possibly freezed us.” Mille explained. “So that's what happened, oh, I'm so cold.” Luigi said. (He went over to Mille and went behind her so he could wrap himself around Mille's nine tails. Mille made some of her tails wrap around Luigi and he smiled as he felt the warmth of the fox's fur) “We have to find out where Ivory and the others are, I think Ivory might have something in this bag.” Mille said. “Can't we just rest, I'm still tired after that walk.” Luigi said. “Alright, we'll rest.” Mille said. (She sat down and starred at the red gems as Luigi fell asleep.
After a while, Mille heard Luigi yawn and looked back. She saw Luigi rubbing his eyes which made her smile. Luigi got up and looked around) “So you have any idea on how to get out of here?” Luigi asked. “Well, (Mille gave Luigi Ivory's bag) look what's inside.” Mille said. (Luigi reached in and picked out the Fire Flower) “Oh, we're so lucky we have one, Mille, do you want a bite?” Luigi asked. “Yes, now let's hurry.” Mille said. (They both ate the Fire Flower and both glowed white. The light died down to reveal Luigi with green overalls and a white shirt and cap with the circle having a brighter white. Mille had a white feather appear on her forhead and wraped around her wrists and tails) “We now have the power of fire!" Luigi said. “Yes, now lets get out of here.” Mille said. (Luigi pointed to a bar and a fire ball escaped from his hand. It hit the bar and it began to melt. Mille threw fire from her hands and melted the bars. The two looked down and saw the thin ice. Luigi looked at Mille) “Can you fly?” Luigi asked. “No, but we have to risk it, just grab my tail and we'll fall down.” Mille said. “Okay, just don't break the ice.” Luigi said. (They both jumped and landed on the ice. It began to crack. Luigi ran off towards the snow nearby and Mille followed. The two made it to the snow and saw an opening.
They walked forward and saw the blizzard raging outside. Mille walked forward and felt Luigi grab two of her tails. The two began to walk back into the blizzard. The wind was more harsher as snow was sticking to the seven other tails) “Oh, such a storm.” Mille said. “Yeah, hey Mille, where do you believe Rose will be?” Luigi asked. “No clue, but that means we can't give up.” Mille said. “I can agree with that, I've been through things like this.” Luigi said. “If that's so, then why do you believe that Rose is here?” Mille asked. “I don't know why, maybe she was being chased or attacked by something.” Luigi said. “Chased or attacked, what made you believe that?” Mille asked. “I just think that may have happened, I hope she hasn't got hurt.” Luigi said. “We just need to go forward and find her.” Mille said. (They continued to walk through the blizzard and beyond.
The two had made it to the still frozen masion. Luigi shivered from the cold as they went towards the big house. There was the ice now just building up. Mille had opened the door and the two entered inside) “So where do we go from here?” Luigi asked. “Shall we split up?” Mille asked. “Um, can I stay with you?” Luigi asked. “Why, is there something wrong?” Mille asked. “Yeah, this place is as if the Boos fake mansion is placed at the Secret Mine.” Luigi explained. “I think I can see it, but lets go forward.” Mille said. “Okay.” Luigi said. “Remember, you got a Fire Flower.” Luigi thought. (The two entered through the opening.
They were now in a big room with the colors of a classic brown. There was a fireplace and in front was a coffe table surrounded by two sofas pushed to the left and right sides of the table. A chandiler was above in the center and many candles on it. All of them were now on fire) “Fire in a frozen place like this, someone else must be here.” Mille said. “Oh dear, who or what could it be?” Luigi asked. “Remain calm, focus on what we need to find, the others and Rose.” Mille said. "Okay, (Luigi walked forward and looked upon the table. He found frozen glass mugs with frozen chocolate milk. Plates with cookies and buiscits, and a green and golden book on the right sofa) well, nothing here, just items.” Luigi said. (He saw Mille leave the room and the plumber rushed to where Mille went.
Luigi entered into the room on the where Mille went. Inside was a kitchen. The stove and other electronics were frozen shut still shining their silver gleam. The cabinits were a classic brown and had black handles. The pots and pans were of a silver color. There were also Koopa servents encased in opaque light blue ice holding onto silver trays, even more Koopa chefs wearing white hats suffered the same fate. Near them was Mille who was checking them) “Mille, what are you doing?” Luigi asked. “Just checking on these statues.” Mille said. (Luigi took step forward and slipped on the ice. He rammed right into a statue and it exploded. Inside was bones and a skull. The skull went right in front of Luigi as he hit a wall. Luigi saw the skull and screamed as he ran out of the room almost in a flash) “Oh dear, we'll, I'd better find him.” Mille thought. (She went into the room right next to the fridge and went inside.
Inside, Mille saw herself in a big ballroom having two balconys leading to other rooms near the roof. There were paintngs of beutifal flowers on the walls. The ceiling was white with green Koopa shell tiles. The floor was pearly white with there being marble pillars and a foutain in the center. There was golden chandiliears and hanging on one was Luigi who had his eyes shut) “Please don't come, please don't come.” Luigi whispered. “Luigi, come down here!” Mille yelled. (Luigi opened his eyes to see the Kitsune near the opening to the kitchen) “Mille, is it safe?” Luigi asked. “Yes, the statues didn't attack, you were just clumsy there!” Mille yelled. “Okay, but please catch me.” Luigi said. (Right when he was about to let go, the chandalier began to loosen. Luigi had quickly out of stress released fire balls which lit up the candles. One of them had hit the foutain's top which lit it up. A circle appeared around the fountain and the circle fell to form stairs. The chandalier had gone stable again as Luigi fell. Mille had quickly caught Luigi) “Are you okay Luigi?” Mille asked. “Yeah, but what's going on with the foutain?” Luigi asked. “Stairs, where does it lead too?” Mille asked. “Well, there's only one way to find out.” Luigi said. (They both went down the stairs leading to the unknown as someone watched.
Deep down, it was getting much colder. They made it to the bottom where there was a path of lanturns all without fire and with icicles hanging on the bottoms) “We must be very deep under the mansion.” Mille said. “Well, how could our friends find this place?” Luigi asked. “I don't know, but I know that we are not alone.” Mille said. (Luigi looked back to find nothing) “Are you sure, because I've always known wether me and Mario were followed.” Luigi said. “I can sense it, but let's keep going.” Mille said. (The two ran off as Luigi only looked back a few seconds while trying to keep calm. Mille grabbed his arm as they made it to a fork in the road) “What now?” Luigi asked. “I don't know, but we should leave a mark on where we are.” Mille said. (She fired a fire ball at a lanturn and lit it up to form a shadow) “So which way do we go?” Luigi asked. (Mille looked around till she found markings underneath the ice. She knelt down and analyzed it) “I see, well, we take the right path.” Mille said. “Where does the left one lead?” Luigi asked. “I have no clue, but it's better to stick with what we've got.” Mille said. (The two continued to walk on, not knowing of the lanturn's shadow forming to something else.
After a long freezing walk, the two made it to a giant door of ice. The two managed to melt through it and enter inside. The room was large and had the red crystals from before as well as giant ice pillars. On the snow was massive amounts of treasues and a hill of snow. The two went forward and went up to the snow. Luigi rubbed on it as the snow began to fall. When enough snow was gone, it revealed Rose with horror on her face. Luigi jumped seeing the cat frozen with fear) “Um, Mille, we found her.” Luigi said. “Great job Luigi, now lets get her out of here.” Mille said. “I congradulate the both of you, but it won't be you that gets to melt the ice.” Someone said. (Both Mille and Luigi looked to see an saw an anthromorphic black wolf. He had an extended muzzle with thick fur on the sides. His nose was round with two holes for nostrils. The ears were like streched triangles. The legs were black as well as his tail. He wore silver armor with a helmet and a visor covering the eyes. All that was revealed was messy gray hair from the sides. The chest and back were with silver armor. While the breastplate had a crecent moon, the back had two openings for leather bags being covered by a shield. The symbol was a dark blue front forming the Corvus Constilation and a full moon in the center. There was armor on the arms with the metal on the forarms outer sides having a crescent moon blade. The boots had thick armor plates. The gauntlets were of silver. On the wrists were two rings. On the right was a black liquid ring with four crystal gems. They were an emerald leaf, a sapphire tear, ruby fire, and a diamond hexagon. The ruby was glowing. On the left was a rusty golden ring with an old pocket watch on the front slowly going in reverse. Around it were the numbers reaching up to twelve and thin silver lines behind the numbers. The wolf walked forward) “Who are you?” Luigi asked. “I am known as Hunter the Wolf.” Hunter introduced. “ well, what do you want?” Luigi asked. “I cam here for General Rose, you see, I was hired by the Dictator to get her back from this blizzard, thanks to you two of course.” Hunter explained. “Listen Hunter, we came here and we want to find our friends, so help us and Sonic.” Luigi said. “Sorry mister, but I also have to prevent you from rescuing Sonic, so prepare yourselves to go home crying.” Hunter said. (Fire began to form on his right hand.
Hunter unleashed a wave of fire and it almost hit Luigi. Luigi ducked and saw Mille fire a fire ball from her hand. Hunter jumped over it, but saw Luigi jump up and did a ground pound. Luigi moved away as Hunter got up from being flattened. The wolf had then fired a wave of ice. Mille and Luigi fired a fire ball and avoided the ice spikes rising from the ground. The two fires had hit Hunter and caused the hexagon on the ring to crack and loose it's glow. Hunter had glared at the two heroes before unleashing water as the sapphire glowed. It hit Luigi and made him slam into a wall. He fell to the ground gasping for air as he saw Mille slam her tails onto Hunter's shield) “Why do you wish to stop us?” Mille asked. “It's like yourselves, but I was just hired for the job.” Hunter explained. (He unleashed a wave of water and it had pushed Mille away. He went over to her, but got hit by a hammer. Hunter hit the ground and managed to see Luigi ready to strike again. The emerald gem glowed and thus formed plants which wrapped around Luigi. Mille had throwed fire balls and they hit Hunter in the back. The emerald gem had cracked a bit and Hunter moved towards Rose. Right when he was about to activate the ruby, cold and powerful wind began to blow and push everyone but Rose back. The three hit a wall as a giant crystal of ice appeared. It began to shatter.
Inside of the crystal was a huge amount of bones which risen up to form ice around. The ice was now acting like it's muscles and skin. A yellow glow appeared to it's eyes of the big skull) “Now what do we have here?” The Ice Dragon asked. “I came here for General Rose.” Hunter explained. “You don't look to interesting to fight, just a knight.” The Ice Dragon said. “You insult me, have you read about what knight fight in legends?” Hunter asked. “I don't care about what history says, I can destroy you easily.” The Ice Dragon said. (Hunter unleashed a huge amount of fire at the dragon and it blowed the fire away with a powerful icy breath. Hunter got blown away as Luigi fired fire balls at a rapid rate. They were hitting the Ice Dragon and he looked down to see the young plumber. The Ice Dragon raised it's leg and was about to crush Luigi. Hunter grabbed Luigi and they both got away from the giant foot. Mille had thrown some fire balls as the Ice Dragon was distracted. It hit the Ice Dragon in the check and he slammed his tail onto the wall. This caused icicles to fall from the celing and slam into the ground. Luigi and Hunter were moving around avoiding the falling ice as Mille was throwing fire balls. When the ice stopped falling, Hunter unleashed an infreno and it hit the Ice Dragon's leg. It fell down as more ice covering the jaw had cracked. Luigi had his hammer out and he slammed it right onto the Ice Dragon's forehead. The dragon moved back in pain and had unleashed a wave of ice from his wings. More ice had risen from the ground and had surrounded the trio. The three jumped from the ice and Mille threw fire balls, Hunter unleashed a wave of fire, and Luigi slammed his hammer into the Ice Dragon's face. It melted the face off and the skull fell to the ground. Water then splashed onto the trio from the neck. The body began to run around recksly as it was slamming into walls causing an avalance. The snow and big chunks of ice had fallen. Hunter noticed an icicle and grabbed onto the two as Mille fired another fire ball before the trio disapeared as the cave collasped.
A portal opened underneath and Mille, Luigi, and Hunter came out upside down. The whole place was covered in darkness with glass platforms above purple lava in an open field with many volcanos around) “Where are we?” Luigi asked. “Inside of the Umbra Realm, a place hidden by the many worlds.” Hunter explained. (Luigi looked to the floor to see nothing but snow) “If so, are we underneath the avalance?” Luigi asked. “Yes, I managed to enter into a shadow, you should be greatful for this power.” Hunter said. “But what about Rose?” Mille asked. “Oh, her, you have to take us back to the room.” Luigi ordered. “I can't, there's no shadow to be found here, look around, (Both Luigi and Mille looked around to see the darkness) there are no Sun Spheres.” Hunter said. “Sun Spheres?” Luigi asked. “Yes, they are the portals to the Sol World.” Hunter explained. (He began to walk off and the two followed.
The group were walking on a path with purple lava on both sides. The two heroes looking around) “So why is there lava?” Luigi asked. “Do you remember what happened, there was a cave in, the Umbra Realm is the opposite of different places.” Hunter explained. “So if we were in a volcano, then we would be in a snow covered field?” Luigi asked. “Correct, the world changes but the floor remains the same to where you are going in the Sol World.” Hunter expained. “That fire we emited, it made a shadow.” Mille said. “Are you talking about how I got to your location before the dragon showed up?” Hunter asked. “Yes.” Mille said. “Well, I do thank you for that.” Hunter said. “I won't thank you until you tell us what happened to our friends.” Luigi said. “Well, I have no clue what happened to the others, they went to the mansion and when I entered inside, they were gone, not anywhere to be found.” Hunter explained. “But what about Ivory, she was with us in the blizzard.” Luigi said. “Ivory, I didn't see any creatures around when I came in.” Hunter said. “So if she isn't in the mansion, then where could she and everyone else be?” Luigi asked. “Can I get a thanks?” Hunter asked. “Yeah, alright, thanks, but I can ask you one more thing?” Luigi asked. “Sure, go on ahead.” Hunter said. “How did you get hired to begin with?” Luigi asked. “By the Dictator, bounty hunters like myself always search for the highest reward, and about two hundred Star Tears.” Hunter explained. “Well, that's a lot of anything.” Luigi said. “Yeah, I also do it for adventure.” Hunter said. “So why do you wear that armor, what is the point of those two bags?” Mille asked. “Well, I can't say why, it's a secret I intend to keep.” Hunter said. (Going forward, the three saw a sphere of light glowing yellow) “What's that?” Luigi asked. “Ah, it's a Sun Sphere, all we do is jump into it and we're out of here.” Hunter said. “Very well, and by the ground, it looks as if we're going to be back where the lanturns were.” Mille said. (Hunter grabbed onto the two and the three jumped into the Sun Sphere.
Entering back, the three went out of the shadow and were now in the same icy cave with the lanturns as before. The trio had began to rush to the right deeper back to where they ounce were. They quickly made it back to the collasped cave and Hunter was about to unleash a wave of fire, but nothing came out. Hunter looked upon his element ring to see the fire ruby broken) “Great, looks like you two have to melt while I wait.” Hunter said. “Okay, but you should at least move the ice.” Luigi said. (The two began to unleash fire balls while Hunter was pushing ice rocks aside, some even larger then himself.
The ice rocks were mostly melted or pushed away to reveal more of the room. There was sight of the Ice Dragon's foot only bones due to the water melting from the heat of the fire balls. More rocks were melted to reveal something encased in ice. Within the monster's stomach was something frozen. Upon closer inspection, it revealed a person. It was wearing blue armor and had a light blue arms, legs, and the stomach and back. The boots and forarms were pure blue and the hands were white. The upper body armor had two gray parts near the bottom of the blue going around to the back. The shoulder pads were sphere shape. The armor below the stomach part was blue armor. The helmet was again blue with light blue on the upper part and was raised all the way to the back. The sides and above the face was light blue and there were black ear pieces with red gems. The front of the helmet and below the thick stripe was a red gem in the shape of an insoles trapezoid. The person's eyes were closed looking as if it was sleeping) “What a weird find, let's get this guy out of here before another collapsing, you melt more ice while I deal with this.” Hunter ordered. “But wasn't the gem damaged?” Luigi asked. “I know, but the gem managed to recover, go find Rose now.” Hunter said. (He threw a wave of fire and it began to melt the ice while the other two fired more fire balls around the area. The ice encasing the blue armored person melted down and the person fell to the ground as water was on the ground. Hunter began to hear a cough and saw it was the blue person. It looked up to Hunter and he saw the green irises staring at him) “Who are you, where am I?” The person asked. (Both Mille and Luigi went up to Hunter) “You quickly woke up, just calm down, my name is Hunter, these two are Mille and Luigi.” Hunter explained. “A human, with human like animals?” The person asked. “Luigi, he knows of your species more then us, try to talk to him.” Hunter said. (Luigi walked up to the person) “Yes, I am in deed a human, what were you doing inside of the Ice Dragon's stomach?” Luigi asked. “I remember, searching for them, I couldn't find them anywhere, then I went here and found that beast.” The person explained. “Them, you have friends?” Luigi asked. “Yes, my friends, Zero, Axl, where are you?” The person asked. “Hey, calm down, it wasn't your fualt that their gone, we can help.” Hunter said. “You mean, you'll help me find my friends?” The person asked. “We are telling the truth, but first, can you tell us your name?” Mille asked. “My name, I'm Megaman X, but everyone calls me X.” X introduced. “Nice to meet you Megaman X, don't get all gloomy.” Luigi said. (X managed to get up and form a confident smile) “We should head back to the base, there's no sign of Rose or anyone else besides us.” Hunter said. “Should we go through the shadows again?” Luigi asked. “That's easy, at least we won't freeze to death.” Hunter said. “Right, let's head to the base.” X said. (He began to walk off and the others followed) “Well, this wasn't mentioned in the job description, but I'll go with it.” Hunter thought.
(Making it back to the lit lanturn, Hunter managed to get the three and himself back into the Umbra Realm. Everything was still the same, glass floor, upside down, purple lava. Hunter walked forward) “We can easily get to the base quickly, this way!” Hunter yelled. (He and the others ran off, leaving the Sun Sphere in the darkness. Deeper through the open field, there was more purple lava, but more volcanos were appearing. There was a hill in the center made of glass. The group got on top of the glass to see the ballroom of the mansion) “We're at least making progress, but which way is Shy Guy Desert?” Luigi asked. “I know that it's by the burning forest.” Hunter said. “Burning forest?” X asked. “Yeah, this world is opposite of the Light World, also it is a false dark future.” Hunter explained. (A volcano erupted making a loud noise) “Should we be aware of the volcanos?” Luigi asked. “Not really, their far away from us.” Hunter said. “X, how did you get to this dimension to begin with?” Mille asked. “Another dimension, so I'm somewhere else?” X asked. “Look at all three of us, we're different then you and the people of your dimension.” Mille said. “Yeah, (X looked more at Luigi) he's not like the humans from my world, to see a fox with nine tails, and a um, what are you?” X asked. “I'm a wolf, and also a bounty hunter.” Hunter explained. “Bounty hunters, reminds me of Mavericks.” X said. “Mavericks?” Luigi asked. “Me and my friends are Maverick Hunters, the Mavericks are machines that rebel against humans.” X explained. “Sounds bad, but can you explain upon what happened before we met?” Luigi asked. “From what memory serves, we were at a party, me, and my two friends were attacked by machines in the looks of you two.” X said. (He pointed to both Mille and Hunter) “They are known as Anthroloids, machines in the forms of us animals and others.” Hunter explained. “So why are you all here, did you know of me?” X asked. “No, me and Mille were searching for a cat named Rose.” Luigi explained, “And I was hired to find her by the Dictator.” Hunter explained. “So your both searching for this Rose, well, at least I know more of what's going on.” X said. (They continued to walk through the magma filled place.
They had made it to a purple ever fire forest. There were paths while there were rivers of yellow poison making trails to the burning trees. The glass floor had revealed the forest at the bottom of the moutain) “We're getting closer to the base, all that's mostly left to cross is the white ocean.” Hunter explained. “It sounds like you've been here before.” Luigi said. “Yeah, I've been exploring this dimension's Umbra Realm for quite a while, mostly because I was following you.” Hunter explained. “Well, this looks really sad.” X said. “Calm down X, Hunter said that this was another world, just look below you, the forest is better.” Luigi said. (X looked down to see the forest through the glass) “Yeah, (X looks and pointed forward) hey, I can see the ocean!” X said. (They saw the ocean which was in a white color. There was many waves hitting the revealed tree roots. Hunter took a step into the water and waited for the others to jump in. The other three got into the water and X sank down) “Um, is X going to be okay?” Luigi asked. “Sure, well, I do hope that he follows us.” Hunter said. “Well, let's get going.” Mille said. (The three began to swim while underneath the ocean, X was following them.
Meanwhile, in another place, in a dark prison room, Mario was sitting on the ground as there was a ring around his neck being connected by a chain on the wall. The walls were a dull and dark gray with another chain as there was a heavy iron door with many locks. Mario sighed as he closed his eyes. He heard a loud noise, the iron door was opening. Bowser came in with a smile on his face) “Bowser, what do you want this time?” Mario asked. “Oh, nothing much, I just wanted to say that your Princess is now safe in her cell.” Bowser said. “You have Peach, let her go!” Mario ordered. (Bowser laughed) “Me, let her go, she doesn't have an umbrella anymore, soon, I'll have your little brother in my grasp.” Bowser said. “Don't hurt Luigi!” Mario yelled. (He tried to run, but the chain had pulled him back and he hit the wall) “Calm down Mario, I'm sure that he'll die a painful death.” Bowser said. “Don't hurt him!” Mario yelled. “Well, I'm sure you can calm down with this green person.” Bowser said. (Two Koopa guards came in with Rose who had a ring attached to her neck with the Eggman symbol. The two had went up to the other chain and they had attached it to the ring already around Rose's neck) “Bowser, why Rose?” Mario asked. “Well, since you and her are both important to two groups, it will be easy to take them down.” Bowser explained. (He and the two Koopas went out of the room, leaving Mario and Rose. The plumber saw Rose sitting down on her knees with her eyes closed) “Rose, are you okay?” Mario asked. “Why should I continue?” Rose asked. “What do you mean?” Mario asked. “I was such a fool, to go out to the snow storm, where everything is cold.” Rose said. “You went out to a blizzard, why?” Mario asked. “I felt like I was chased by something, perhaps it was my fear to live on, there's no hope.” Rose explained. “No, I'm sure that fear was a reason to run, but for life, why?” Mario asked. “I have no future, all I do know is that I'm a general for a war, for now, it feels like the battle will never end.” Rose said. “Don't get down on yourself like that, (Mario walked forward, stopping when he reached the chain's limit, just right near Rose) I may not be in your dimension, but the war will end, you just have to get up and keep on fighting.” Mario said. “But what side I am on is wrong, it's of evil and there's no hero to save us from our corrupted lives.” Rose said. “Why don't you quit or escape?” Mario asked. “There's no way I can, with the chains bound to me, I can't do anything.” Rose explained. “You mean the one around your neck?” Mario asked. “No, there are more chains then you think.” Rose said. “You must miss your family. “Mario said. “I have none, all I do know is that I'm the last of the family.” Rose said. “What happened to them?” Mario asked. (Rose raised her head up) “They were killed by them, all of my brothers, my father, those two, one of them almost killed me, but I survived, unlike the rest of my family.” Rose said. “So you lost your entire family, but who were the killers?” Mario asked. “My memories of that incident were erased, but after the painful seizures, I saw one with green armor fighting me.” Rose explained. “Seizures, that must be Meanwhile, in another place, in a dark prison room, Mario was sitting on the ground as there was a ring around his neck being connected by a chain on the wall. The walls were a dull and dark gray with another chain as there was a heavy iron door with many locks. Mario sighed as he closed his eyes. He heard a loud noise, the iron do.” Mario said. “In deed it is, I just can't let go of that memory, knowing that my whole family is gone and I couldn't do anything.” Rose said. “How old were you when it happened?” Mario asked. “Two years old, yes, I was that young and I tried to fight.” Rose explained. “So young, it must be very painful.” Mario thought. “Why did you want to talk to me, it feels as if you care.” Rose said. “Yeah I care about all my friends, and I'm very kind.” Mario said. “Well, at least I get to talk to someone, (She got up and hugged the plumber) thanks.” Rose said. (Rose let go) “So, what do you want to talk about next?” Mario asked. “About your brother, do you think he'll save us?” Rose asked. “Yeah, I have confidence in him, so I know that he'll come and save the day.” Mario said. “No wonder your called the Super Mario Bros., but thanks for that, Meanwhile, in another place, in a dark prison room, Mario was sitting on the ground as there was a ring around his neck being connected by a chain on the wall. The walls were a dull and dark gray with another chain as there was a heavy iron door with many locks. Mario sighed as he closed his eyes. He heard a loud noise, the iron do, I can't use my powers get us out of here.” Rose said. “It's alright, Luigi will come.” Mario said. (Rose laughed) “Yeah, I know he will, but thanks for cheering me up, a general that wishes to kill is being happy by a plumber.” Rose said. “Hey, don't mention it, there is nothing left to do.” Mario said. “Yeah, maybe when this war is over, we can be friends.” Rose said. “What, I think your jumping a little too early.” Mario said. “Oh don't worry, I won't be a best friend, just a simple friend with a bad back story.” Rose said. “I guess so, just don't get in the way when Bowser kidnaps Peach.” Mario said. “Bowser's really into Peach, I mean, why does he kidnap her so many times?” Rose asked. “Well, Bowser wants to take over the Mushroom Kingdom and marry Peach, yeah, quite the bad image.” Mario said. “Eww, a turtle with a human, bad thoughts!” Rose yelled. (Mario laughed as Rose finished yelling) “That was pretty good, so what should we talk about now?” Mario asked. “Oh nothing in Meanwhile, in another place, in a dark prison room, Mario was sitting on the ground as there was a ring around his neck being connected by a chain on the wall. The walls were a dull and dark gray with another chain as there was a heavy iron door with many locks. Mario sighed as he closed his eyes. He heard a loud noise, the iron do.” Rose said. “Well, I have plenty of stories of my adventures.” Mario said. (He began to talk about them to Rose, leaving them with a conversation) Bowser as a main part of this chapter? Well, where are the main focus right now in the Umbra Realm? Will Megaman X find his friends? Of course as usual, in the next act which is already up.
