No POV

As we continue where we left off after the gang found out that Meggy was kidnapped during the night before the Splatfest event, we see one of the Calamarie Sisters, Callie has a special emergency broadcast announcement about Meggy's disappearance, but it turns out that Meggy isn't the only Inkling that got kidnapped as a number of Inklings have also disappeared by the same kidnapper that took away Meggy the other night.

Callie then explains the whole situation from the broadcast about this so-called kidnapper that Y/n managed to figure out by the second clue that he found at Meggy's apartment.

Callie: T-this is an emergency broadcast...Ever since the disappearance of one Meggy Spletzer...Inklings are being abducted all over Inkopolis. This is a plea for all citizens of Inkopolis...Stay inside. I repeat, STAY INSIDE!!! (Drops the camera then cowards on the floor) Marie...

Then we cut over to outside of Inkopolis that soon became a ghost town after the many reports of Inkling kidnappings that happened before and after the Splatfest Games as Mario, Luigi, Desti and Tari began looking for Axol in the area, but he was nowhere to be found at all.

Tari: Where...is everyone?

Mario: Luigi hide! Your face is scaring all the inklings!

Then they can see a whole bunch of Inklings hiding away from the outside world due to the many Inkling abductions that are happening in every corner. Even Cap'n Cuttlefish is becoming overprotective of his own grandchildren since he heard about the Inkling Abductions going on recently.

Cap'n Cuttlefish: (Pulls out a gun) DON'T TOUCH THE CHILD!

Desti: Ever since the abductions, everyone has been afraid to go outside. Pathetic wimps.

Then Mario tries asking some of the locals that are currently hiding away from getting abducted by the same kidnapper

Mario: S'cuse-a me, I'm-a looking for Meggy!

Then without warning, a giant rocket launcher comes out of the building, prompting Mario to back away from the building since the local are not willing to talk due to how paranoid they've become due to the kidnapping reports.

Mario: Okey dokey. Never mind then.

Desti: (Groans in Frustration) This is such a waste of time. We're never going to find Meggy at this rate. If only Y/n were here with us this would be much easier.

Mario: Leave Y/n out of this!

Then suddenly, Tari pointed something out to the gang out of fear to see someone standing in the distance within the thick fog surrounding the area.

Tari: (Scared) G-guys...

They all looked to the figure that she's pointing at as the figure revealed to be none other than Ryuk from the "Death Note" anime standing in the distance as for some reason these anime characters that were created by someone using the Inkweaver to kidnap the Inklings to produce more ink since Axol did mention that Inkling ink is more powerful and efficient than normal ink.

Luigi: (Freaking out) It's...it's one of Axol's anime characters!

Mario: (Shouting to the anime creation) HEY EMO DEMON!!! GIVE BACK MEGGY, NOW!

Mario then threw a rock at Ryuk, which didn't work as it made a squeak sound when it hit him, and he didn't even flinch after that as he just stood there menacingly with a creepy look in his eyes.

Luigi: Guys...I think it's time to go!!!!

Then without warning, Ryuk charged at the four of them, acting like a complete psycho while running at them.

Ryuk: I'm gonna shove a shrimp up your ass!

Then suddenly, Mario felt a strange pulse from his brain as he lowered his head a bit before his Devil Mario persona took control and brought out his sword as he is about to fight the anime character to death.

Mario: (Devil Mario Voice) Not if I have anything to say about it!

-Meanwhile with the others-

Location: The A.S.S. HQ - Permanently Shut Down

As we cut over to Y/n and the others that made their way over to the A.S.S. HQ that is no longer in service ever since the Anime Ban was repelled, resulting in everyone that worked there to quit and move on to find another job or retire as we see the former A.S.S. troops packing up their things and threw them in the back of the trucks along with destroying the A.S.S. vehicles with melee weapons, which is why the gang needed their help to stop the person that is responsible for kidnapping the inklings by using anime characters.

Let's hope these soldiers are willing to help them out in this situation.

Hideo Kojima: Go home! You're not needed anymore!

Then the Chain Chomp that worked for the A.S.S. group barked at Hideo before he jumped at him and started biting his head in a fit of rage, causing Hideo to scream in pain.

Bob Bobowski: Why are we all helping these guys, they're all assholes!

Saiko Bichitaru: Desti was wrong about Axol kidnapping Meggy. But she's right that whoever did it loved anime. So, we're going to need the best weeaboo hunters in the kingdom to stop Francis.

Y/n: Right, we're all gonna need all the help we can get in order to take down Francis's evil plans to kidnap every inkling he can find to collect more ink to use Axol's Inkweaver to create his own harem of waifus. That sick bastard is gonna get what's coming to him and we're not gonna let him get away with it.

SMG4: I agree with you, Y/n, but anime is unbanned, and Peach is also no longer a Princess, A.S.S. is no more. Who can we find to hunt down weeaboos?

Ember: Why not ask those two knuckleheads? (Points to Swag and Chris)

Then we see Swag and Chris will all of their stuff packed in a box as they both also lost their jobs at A.S.S. and they are both out of a job once again.

Chris: Well Swag, that should be everything. It's time to move on with our lives.

Swagmaster69696969696: I don't think i can go back to civilian life, Chris...I've seen too much. (Getting Anime Style Vietnam Flashbacks)

Saiko: Ahem.

Swagmaster: (Sees Saiko and freaks out) Ah, Chris help! I'M HAVING VIETNAM FLASHBACKS AGAIN!

Saiko: No, you idiot! We need your help!

Y/n: Yeah! We need you two and the other soldiers to help us stop Francis from kidnapping more Inklings!

Chris: You want us to help you? We're jobless, because of you guys.

Swagmaster: Ye, how am I gonna feed my kids now you dick munchers.

Chris: You don't have kids, Swag...

Swagmaster: I made some last night with your mom lol.

Ember: Bruh.

Saiko: SERIOUSLY GUYS!!

Swagmaster: :(

Fishy Boopkins: Meggy's been kidnapped and we need people who know how to track down anime fans!

Chris: A weeaboo you say?

Ember: Yes! Y/n managed to figure out that Francis is using Axol's magic ink pen to create anime characters to do his bidding to kidnap Meggy and the other Inklings for their ink to create his own harem of waifus to satisfy his sick and perverted ways. Man, I really want to burn him alive with a flamethrower right now!

Y/n: I can make that happen.

Chris: Well, what do you say Swag?

Swagmaster: Nah, these guys can kiss my anus.

Chris: Swag, when you joined A.S.S., you made a promise. A promise to save the world from losers obsessed with 2D anime girls. Are you going to break that promise?

Swagmaster: You're right. I was born as a weeb hunter, and I will die a weeb hunter.

Bob: We're gonna need more than these two idiots if we're going against Francis, lol.

Swagmaster: Hey fak you. My power level is over 9,000 (9K).

Jeffy: Oh bitch! You wanna throw hands?!

Boopkins: Guys, he's right! Francis is probably made so many anime characters that will overpower us all! We won't be able to save Meggy and the other Inklings!

Saiko: Yeah...We're going to need some fire power.

Chris: Fire power, you say? Leave that to us.

Swagmaster: Yea boiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!

Y/n: Well then. What if I show you two my entire collection of weapons and firearms?

That actually got Swag's attention when Y/n mentioned about his weapons collection.

Swag: Did you say...weapons collection?

Y/n: Yes. In fact, (Pulls out The Eridian Fabricator aka "The Gun Gun") Check this f***ing shit out!

Y/n then fires the Gun Gun as a bunch of more guns shot out of the Gun Gun, which got the entire soldiers around the building to notice the pile of guns that Y/n fired out of the Gun Gun as they all dogpiled for the pile of guns to grab a gun to use for themselves.

Former A.S.S. Troops: Gun Gun Gun Gun Gun Gun Gun Gun Gun Gun!

Swag: HOLY SHIT CHRIS!!! THAT COOL CAT JUST FIRED A GUN THAT SHITS OUT MORE GUNS!!!

Y/n: So? Are you guys in or what?

Swag: (Grabs a gun) Where do we start?

-Back to Mario and the others at Inkopolis-

As we cut back to Mario and the others that encountered by Ryuk that was created by Francis to help him kidnap more Inklings to produce more ink, the anime character went from attacking to running for his own life screaming in terror after seeing how scary and dangerous Mario is right now as he was chasing down the anime character at full speed.

Ryuk: (Screaming like a girl)

Mario: Why are you running?! Why are you running?!

The others have no clue to how Mario managed to scare off Ryuk like that even though that he appeared to be super tough due to how he was made with Inkling Ink as Ryuk tried many ways to distract Mario like throwing objects at him only for Mario to either dodge him or slice them up with his sword.

Then when Ryuk tried throwing a plate of spaghetti Mario to distract him, Mario didn't even bother going after it as he unleashed a powerful sword move at Ryuk to finish him off with...

SERIOUS SLASH!!!

Mario used that move to cut off Ryuk's head, clear off his shoulder at the speed of light with his eyes glowing red as Ryuk collapsed on the ground, feeling the ink disappear all over his entire body after getting killed by Mario's impressive sword skills.

Ryuk: I am dead....(DED then dissolves into a pool of ink)

After that happened, Luigi, Tari and Desti were all completely shocked by how Mario managed to kill an anime character with sheer determination and raw strength.

But then...

Mario: (Snaps back into reality) (Markiplier Voice) Wait what are we doing? I...uh...I blacked out for a little bit. What?! What are we doing?!

Luigi: Mario?! What the hell was that?!

Mario: (Confused) What the f*** are you talking about?

Desti: What the hell do you mean? You just killed that anime character with that sword!

Mario: Sword? What sword?

Desti: (Facepalms) The sword you're holding, you idiot!

Mario: Huh? (Looks to down to see him holding a sword) Whoa! Where did I get this from? I don't remember carrying a sword like this. (Looks around) Hey? Where did that creepy guy go? (Sees the plate of Spaghetti on the ground) Hey! Someone left this spaghetti on the ground! (Dives for the spaghetti and then devours it)

Tari: Um...I honestly don't know what got into Mario, but I can suddenly sense another being inside Mario.

Luigi: Huh? What do you mean by that, Tari?

Desti: Yeah! What do you mean that there's another idiot living inside this idiot?!

Mario: I've heard that!

Tari: Well, it's hard to explain, but for some reason this other being is from an alternate timeline that no longer exists. It must've fused with Mario the moment that it escaped from that erased timeline.

Mario: Probably because you guys were planning to swap me and Y/n's IQ, which ended up getting the whole universe destroyed in the process after Y/n went all evil genius after a bump in the head to the wall and of course that person probably managed to go back in time to prevent that from ever happening again and suddenly fused with me to make sure not to do something so stupid that can get us in serious trouble or destroy the entire universe. Plus, I'd figured that Axol really is innocent from kidnapping Meggy and the other Inklings because he would never use his creations to commit crimes or do evil stuff. I believe the real culprit is definitely Francis because he was so creepy, weird and perverted that he desperately wanted Axol to create an entire army of waifus, but he ignored him after we got anime unbanned, which is why he is willing to take matters into his own hands by kidnapping not only Meggy and the Inklings, but also Axol as well to make us think that he is behind all of this when Francis planned to use Axol's Inkweaver to create his waifus for his sick, twisted and perverted desires and killing all of those Inklings including Meggy of their ink to supply the Inkweaver. And to prove my point, (Pulls out his smartphone) I managed to find his Facebook page and he posted his plan on his homepage like a doofus that literally just exposed his evil plans. Of course, I hardly even doubt anyone is still using Facebook at the time, but I'm sure it's still a decent social network at this time of year.

After Mario explained the whole situation to Luigi, Tari and Desti, they were all beyond shocked when Mario was being very smart at the time, which makes sense why Tari managed to discover another being from another timeline that is living inside Mario's brain as this is the first time that Luigi has ever heard Mario said something so smart like that or how he is about to use Facebook.

Luigi: I don't know what shocks me more, finding out that Francis is behind all of this or that you know how to use Facebook!

Tari: Is Mario acting some sort of zombie or something to make him talk so smart like that?

Desti: Oh, grow up! There are no such things as Zombies! I don't understand why people keep making movies and TV Shows about Zombies anyway. When you die, you die! There's no coming back from the dead!

Mario: Well, if Zombies aren't real, then how can we even talk about them?

That actually blew Desti's mind after Mario said about if Zombies aren't real and why we even talk about them in the first place if Zombies as Desti is even more shocked then ever by Mario's sudden smartness.

Desti: I don't know how he did it, but Mario just blew my mind!

Mario: Aha! You said my name right this time! You get a pumpkin sticker after we're done with this mess. Also, (Pulls out a map) I just found this piece of paper on the ground where that creepy dude that I just killed. I think it's a map to an island just outside of Creation City or something. I don't know.

The map that Mario just pulled out leads to an island where Francis is keeping Meggy, Axol and the kidnapped Inklings at called, "Anime Island".

Luigi: Anime...Island?

Then Mario's smartphone began ringing as Y/n is calling Mario to tell him that they are having a meeting at Y/n's house to plan their move to get Meggy, Axol and all of the Inklings that Francis kidnapped for their ink to fuel Axol's Inkweaver as Mario answered the phone to listen to what he has to say.

Mario: Talk to me, bro.

Y/n: (On the phone) Mario. We managed to get some help from the former A.S.S. group and they're willing to help us out, but we're gonna need to call in everyone if we're gonna stop Franics. So, meet me at my house at 7:00 PM Sharp!

Mario: Okie-Dokie! By the way, while you and the others are gone, we encountered one of the anime goons that Francis created that tried to attack us, but I took care of it. We also managed to find a map that Francis is keeping Meggy and the rest of the Inklings at.

Y/n: (On the phone) Great! This is going well as planned! But I think you guys should head back to Creation City right away before more of Francis' anime goons show up! While you're at it, you think you can get Desti's crew to join up as well cause we're gonna need an army to take out Francis.

Mario: Got it! We'll be there right away!

Y/n: (On the Phone) Alright, see you guys then. (Hangs up)

Mario: We gotta get back to Y/n's house pronto! (To Desti) Desti? Think you can get your crew to team up with us as well? We're gonna need plenty of backup to kill that geeky bastard for kidnapping your rival.

Desti: (Smiles at Mario) Of course! Me and the Octoposse are always for a challnge.

Mario: Excellent. Alright, everyone. We better get going before more of those anime goons show up cause we're about to go to war on Anime Island.

So then, the four of them immediately make their way back to Y/n's house in Uptown Creation City to plan their next move on Anime Island to save Meggy, Axol and all of the kidnapped Inklings from Francis.

Mario: (Thinking) Don't worry, Meggy. We're coming for you! Stay strong for us and we'll get there as fast as we can!

-Meanwhile at Anime Island-

As we cut back to Anime Island, where Meggy is sitting quietly in her jail cell as she tries her best to survive the harsh conditions of being locked up with little food and water to consume and had to sleep in a jail cell against her own will after she got kidnapped by Francis and the anime goons that he created for his plans.

Then suddenly, the door to her cell opened up as another anime character known as Dabi from My Hero Academia walked into Meggy's cell and placed the handcuffs on her before dragging her out of the cell as Meggy began struggling her way out of Dabi's grasp, but she couldn't get out due to the lack of strength she had to deal with after being stuck in that cell for a long time after she got kidnapped.

Meggy: HEY! LET GO OF ME!!!! I'LL DESTROY ALL OF YOU-

Then she stopped to look at all of the kidnapped Inklings that are trapped inside some glass tubes as they are all being drained of their ink that is also their own life force as Francis is about to murder hundred if not thousands or millions of poor, innocent Inklings for their own ink to make more anime characters to serve him and make his waifu dream come true.

Stay strong Meggy! Your friends are doing their best to find you with plenty of backup to get you and your own kind out of that hellhole of that sick, twisted nerd that wanted Waifus all to himself.

We all promise you, Meggy! You and all of your Inkling friends will be saved from this evil villain, and Francis will be given a well-deserved punishment when Y/n and his gang make their way to Anime Island to unleash meme and anime style justice.
