Chapter 3. DUN DUN DUUN!

https://youtu.be/oeWoU1sqqLU

Kogarashi: It looks like Team Rocket did this, all right. Look, here are Poké Balls, Meowth tracks. It's just... I never heard of them hitting anything this big before.

Bolo is crouching in the sand studying the tracks.

Bolo: They didn't. But we are meant to think they did. These tracks are side by side. Team Rocket always rides single file to hide their numbers.

Kogarashi: These are the same Waddle Dees that sold us Mordecai and Rigby!

Bolo: And these blast points, too accurate for Team Rocket.  Only Team Plasma grunts are so precise.

Kogarashi: Why would Team Plasma want to slaughter Waddle Dees?

Kogarashi looks back at the speeder where Mordecai and Rigby are inspecting the dead Waddle Dees, and puts two and two together.

Kogarashi: If they traced the duo here, they may have learned who they sold them to. And that would lead them... Home... Oh, no...

Kogarashi stumbles around in a daze looking for his aunt, Peach, and his uncle, Mario. Suddenly he comes upon their smoldering remains. He is stunned, and cannot speak. Hate replaces fear and a new resolve comes over him.

???: We're going to examine the crime scene.

Kogarashi: (Sees two Jedi) Who are you?

Me: I'm Antasma, The Bat King, and we are traveling for the sake of the Multiversal Heroes.  Beside me is my girlfriend, Risky Boots.

Risky: Hello...

Bolo: (Looks at Antasma's lightsaber hilt) Mace Windu's lightsaber! Where'd you get that?

Me: I saw it drop from the Chancellor's office and caught it.

Bolo: Did you make the crystal bleed?

Me: No. I'm a Gray-Jedi, not a Sith!

Risky: I got your lightsaber back from the planet of Floria.

Bolo: My old lightsaber! You caught that and left the crystal unbled, too?

Risky: Yep!

Bolo: And you just use the Dark side of the Force for good purposes?

Me: You know it! (Turns to Risky, gives her a smooch)

Bolo: I'm proud of you two.  You guys went through a lot to get those.

Me: We'll be more than happy to join you guys.

Risky: Safety in numbers, right, sweetie? (Calls in the Battleship Halberd)

Team Plasma Grunt: Stop that ship!

Me: Takeoff!

(We leave World 2)

Meta Knight: Eet ees nice to see you again... Bolo.

Bolo: You, too.

Meta Knight: (Notices me and Risky) NightShadow, your parents are here.

NightShadow: Father! Mother!

Me: Son. I haven't seen you since starting my Gray-Jedi career.  I'm sorry I couldn't be there for you.

Risky: Same thing with me.

NightShadow: I have good news: I purified an Inquisitor's red Kyber crystal!

Me: That's wonderful!  You have mastered the Light Side of the Force!  Now if only you wanted to learn Vaapad. Hold on... (Senses a million voices silenced, sheds a tear) World 1 has been destroyed by Team Plasma... (Sniff) Those poor Mushroom Kingdom citizens...

NightShadow: (Crosses his heart)

A goth girl walks in and sees me shed a tear.  This is Stocking Anarchy, the youngest of the Anarchy Sisters.

Stocking: I'm sorry for their losses.  But we'll avenge them!  Their lives weren't lost in vain. (Hears moans of pleasure) Goddammit, Panty! Not again!  Get out here, you slut!

???: Ugh... Fine!

A blonde-haired woman crawls out of an escape pod wearing a red dress and red high heels. This is Panty Anarchy, the oldest of the Anarchy Sisters.

Panty: (Looks at NightShadow, does a finger-walking motion up NightShadow's chest) I wonder how much potential YOU have...

NightShadow: (Blushes) Uh... Panty... Personal space, please...

Me: Looks as if someone has a crush... (Sighs, looks at Risky) Just like how WE met...

(Meanwhile, at the Death Egg...)

Ivo Robotnik: My drones have reached Halfmoon. They found the remains of a Resistance base, but they estimate that it has been deserted for some time. They are now conducting an extensive search of the surrounding systems.

Agent Stone: Doc! I thought that you'd like a latté with steamed Austrian goat milk!

Robotnik: Do I look like an IMBECILE?!  Of course I want a latté! I LOVE THE WAY YOU MAKE THEM!

Manfred: She lied! That BITCH lied to us!

Shadownova: I TOLD you she would never consciously betray the Multiversal Heroes!

Manfred: Terminate her... IMMEDIATELY!

(Back at the Halberd...)

The battleship is just coming out of hyperspace; a strange surreal light show surrounds the ship.

Meta Knight: Stand by, Captain Vul, here we go. Cut in the sublight engines.

Meta Knight pulls back on a control lever. Outside the cockpit window stars begin streaking past, seem to decrease in speed, then stop. Suddenly the starship begins to shudder and violently shake about. Asteroids begin to race toward them, battering the sides of the ship.

Meta Knight: What the...? Aw, we've come out of hyperspace into a meteor shower. Some kind of asteroid collision. It's not on any of the charts.  But this is supposed to be World 1... (Puts two and two together) Oh, fuck.

Kogarashi: Where's World 1?!

Meta Knight: That's what I'm trying to tell you, kid. Eet eesn't there. Eet's been totally blown away.

Me: Destroyed...

Risky: By Team Plasma!

Meta Knight: (Zorro accent) The entire starfleet couldn't destroy the whole planet. It'd take a thousand ships with more fire power than I've--

A huge explosion bursts outside the cockpit window, shaking the ship violently. A tiny, finned Plasma fighter races past the cockpit window. The tension mounts as the ship gains on the tiny fighter. In the distance, one of the stars becomes brighter until it is obvious that the Plasma ship is heading for it. Bolo stands behind Captain Vul.

Bolo: A fighter that size couldn't get this deep into space on its own.

Meta Knight: Well, he ain't going to be around long enough to tell anyone about us.

The distant star can be distinguished as a small moon or planet, but begins to take on the appearance of a monstrous spherical battle station.

Me: We must be caught in a tractor beam... Meta Knight!  It's time for... The decoy.

Risky: Holy fuckamoli!  Look at the SIZE of this thing!

As the battered masked ship is towed closer to the awesome metal superweapon, the immense size of the massive battle station becomes staggering. Running along the equator of the gigantic sphere is a mile-high band of huge docking ports into which the helpless ship is dragged, like a fish towards the beak of a giant squid.

Team Plasma Grunt: Governor Von Karma! We've captured a freighter entering the remains of the Alderaan system. It's markings match those of a ship that blasted its way out of Mos Eisley.

Shadownova: They must be trying to return the stolen plans to the princess. She may yet be of some use to us.

Team Plasma Grunt: There's no one on board, sir. According to the log, the crew abandoned ship right after takeoff. It must be a decoy, sir. Several of the escape pods have been jettisoned. 

Shadownova: Did you find any animals?

Team Plasma Grunt: No, sir. If there were any on board, they must also have jettisoned.

Shadownova: Send a scanning crew on board. I want every part of this ship checked. (Pauses for a while) I sense something... A presence I haven't felt since... (Leaves)
