A/N: This will probably the darkest but light-hearted mini arc that I will write. Hell, I won't even call this an Arc, I would call this a trilogy and there will be one villain that will give the assassin a hard time. Now then, onto the chapter.

Episode 15: A Talk To Remember
Chapter Synopsis: Mario, Tatsumi, and friends are forced to stay together for a night after an incident that occurred a day ago. What would this night be that might be stuck on their heads for a while?
Mario and Tatsumi, who no longer had Incursio's side effects, were walking back towards the castle to meet everyone else. It's been about three hours since they ate White Castle. The assassin looked at the plumber. "Thanks for letting me come with you, Mario. I feel quite better than before."
"Thanks for that compliment." Mario commented before he opened the door of the castle to allow himself and Tatsumi to go to the interior of the building. However, upon doing so.....
"MARIO! TATSUMI! Thank God you two came back safely!" SMG4 immediately came up to them from out of nowhere. This made the two jump in fright before they looked at the recoloured Mario with a dumbfounded look on their faces.
"Woah, you alright?" Tatsumi asked the recoloured Mario.
The assassin then got his answer as he looked behind to see the rest of SMG4's friends with a shocked expression on their faces. What he didn't expect was to see Swag and Chris with them as if there was something urgent. The two then followed the meme lord and soon the assassin then decided to ask his question. "Is there something wrong?"
"Tatsumi," He then heard Tari spoke as she looked at him with a sympathetic expression on her face, "We heard a news report that a total of twenty-two people, all of whom were women, died a day ago."
The assassin couldn't believe it. Normally, this would be a normal occurrence back in the Capital, but to actually hear it in this world. He then face towards the two military soldiers. "When did to get this report?"
Chris then answered the assassin's question. "We just got this about an hour ago. Reports say that most of whom were beyond recognition due to multiple punch marks around their bodies and some were..."
Tatsumi then put his right index finger in his mouth as he saw that Melony was with them and knew that she didn't have the Talk yet with Axol. Luckily, he then thought of an alternate way of saying it. "You mean that some had the birds and the bees against their free will, right?"
The sane pixilated soldier then nodded at him. "Yeah. But why can't I say about..." Tatsumi then lifted his right arm and soon pointed to where Melony was and the sane pixilated soldier soon understood what he meant by that. Chris then looks at the assassin. "Oh right, Has this happened in where you're from before?"
The assassin then nodded at him. "Yeah."
Now that he got his first question answered, it was now time for the next one that was tied into that question. "So, who could be the one responsible for this?"
SMG4, his friends, and the two soldiers then saw that Tatsumi was in his deep thoughts as he was asked that. It took for a while until a realisation then hits him. "Oh, you've got to be kidding me!"
"Tatsumi?" The boy that was mentioned then look at Mario who was quite concerned with his friend. "Are you okay?"
The assassin then nodded at him. "Yeah, I think I know who it might be. But before I could say that I think we should all sit down in the floor and form a circle." Every member of the SMG4 squad plus their allies then looked at each other before they all look back at him and they nodded at his request.
C
Twenty minutes had passed and everyone was sitting down in the floor looking at the assassin. They still saw that he was still deep in his thoughts. Tari then asked the assassin/ "Um....Have you thought of the person responsible in doing that crime?"
The assassin remained silent until he looked at everyone with a serious but suspicious look on his face. "I think I may know who it is." Everyone then looked at him with curiosity as he was about to say on who the culprit might be. "The person who might've been in my guess.....might have been Syura."
Naturally, the two otakus , and Mario since he saw the person's wiki page, were shocked as they were very aware of who this person was. The rest, however, was confused on who this person was. SMG4 then looks at him as he was about to ask that question. "Um, Tatsumi. Who's this Syura person?"
But before the assassin could even answer, Axol then decided to explain who he was talking about. "So, do you remember the Prime Minister that was the main target of his group? Well, he does have a son and that was Syura."
"What/huh?!" Everyone responded to that as they never knew that the Prime Minister had a son.
"HuH, sO tHaT FaT hUtT cOuLd PrOcReAtE?" The Garo asked sarcastically as he wasn't actually surprised about this.
"We're getting off topic here people," They all heard Mario's voice and they turn towards him, who was then holding a photo of the person in general who was bulky with tan skin, green eyes and hair. What was noticeable for the rest to identify him was an X-shaped scar on his face and had a crown-like head gear. They never expected was that Mario of all people to be focus on something. "Syura is basically this brat who wanted to be Emperor of Tatsumi's world and he see the Captial as his 'Playground'," Everyone's reaction was that of disgust and anger as they all knew where Mario was going towards, "So, yeah, that's what you need to know about Syu boi."
"That sick bastard...!" Saiko uttered as she was gritting her teeth and got angry at what Mario had to say.
Luigi then had the same reaction as the Yandere. "He toys with people for his own amusement?!"
"How could he?! Tari said as she was very shocked about what Mario was referring to as his 'Playground' and Tatsumi referring to the 'Birds and the Bees against their free will'.
Bob, although he was shocked about this, wasn't actually surprised about what Mario and Tatsumi were referring to. "WoW, sO hE's ThOsE kInDs Of PeOpLe, HuH? No WoNdEr I aM nOt SuPrIsEd." Everyone then looked at the Garo as they were all confused to what he just stated.
"Well, I don't know about how you feel about him," They all turn towards Tatsumi who still that same expression on his face had, "But I have to warn you, he's fast and agile and is also proficient at hand to hand combat, and uses powerful moves like a double palm strike, which he can badly injure someone." Saiko wasn't so sure about that as she was quite sceptical on this Syura person's skill since she herself is good at taekwondo. "Hell, he did give my group a tough time and it look about us to pin him down to the ground and Sis to break his neck in order to kill him."
They were now aware of how dangerous this person was and could feel that they were going to have a tough time with him. Mario then went up to where the assassin was and he then placed his right hand on the assassin's left shoulder. "Hey!" Tatsumi looks at the idiot straight in the eyes, "Even if he was in this world, I won't so mercy to him. Just pure brutality because I...Ẁ̴̧̬̿ǫ̷̠̓͘n̸̻̰̅̓'̸̘̔̀t̴̼̀ ̷̺̒̊b̶̞͂e̴̗̎͝ ̴̹̃s̷̨̝̐o̶̢̞̾.̸̳̘̈̋.̶̢͈̄̑.̶̝̠͊̓.̵͙̪͝.̵̯̊.̸̭̿͜.̵̪̈́̽.̵͖͐.̵̢̘͛.̶̹̒͝.̷̻̿.̶̯̟͑͝.̴̹̈̚.̶̣͇͂.̴̹̈́̏M̴̡̗͐̈́E̴̲͎̾̀Ř̵̟͓̽C̸̪̝͗̐I̶̻̊͑F̴̗͓͌́Ù̵͔̏L̶̛̻̥!̵̖̉ͅ!̴͍̗̐͘!̵̜͓̊̊!̴̅ͅ!̴͙̪̌"
Hearing the last part made everyone including the assassin and Saiko become quite scared of Mario as his voice became distorted. He is starting to became a little out of character for some odd reason. "M-Mario...." Tari could only utter as she was starting to see the shift in her friend's behaviour.
Swag felt the same way as the idiotic plumber. "If he thinks he could have fun with Chris's mom, then I kick his lil' Syu boi balls so hard that it will be completely crushed."
His friend just sighed at his friend's comment. "Swag, weren't you aware of what Tatsumi had said before?"
Swag just looked at him with contempt even though he cannot make a facial expression. "Shut up Chris! As long as I get to crush his lil' Syu boi balls, I'll be happy about it."
The assassin the sighed at what he had just stated. "It may be far fetched. But let's leave it for now on. I do have two important questions that has been bugging me for a while now. So, let's start with the first one..." He then looked at someone who was sitting right next to Axol. Melony. "Say Melony, how the hell did you even become a human in the first place? From what I was told by Axol, you were originally a watermelon before, y'know?"
The Axolotl and the watermelon girl just looked at each other before the axolotl then decided to explain the origins of how his best friend became a human. "Well, Mario was messing with a lot of masks, which can transform people into different variants of either people, memes or object. One of the mask was that of the Fierce Deity and it then landed on Melony, which then turned her into a human."
Well, that was total nonsense for Tatsumi to hear but he manage to believe it, nonetheless. "I guess that makes sense considering all the things that are happening in this world." He then looked at the girl in question and sensed that her aura was coming from around the area of the face. "I guess you only had a short lifespan before meeting up with them, huh?"
What he didn't expect was that the Melon girl started laughing. "Well...." She could only say as she was beginning her backstory.
F
It then cut to a montage of Melony being born on a farm, her early childhood in Kindergarten, Elementary School, and High School, her work experience in Black Mesa in New Mexico (A/N: How is that even possibl—Oh right, this is SMG4, which means that anything could happen.), serving with the U.S Army, which she took part in a freaking war...Somehow meeting then-President Obama, then going to space, accompanying Hideo Kojima, and auditioning at Snitch Productions as part of the Anti-Cast. This then all leads up to the day where she became human...
F
"Yayyyyyyyyy!" Melony finished as he had her hands up in the air and was waving at them. The rest weren't surprised about this as they were already informed about this by SMG4.
Tatsumi, however, still remained silent as he was trying to process on what the watermelon turn human girl had just stated. It was then he could only utter the words that he could only say. "I'm sorry, but what....what?...what?!..." He then had an expression of shock as his eyes were whitened anime style. "WHAT?!" That was his reaction to how a melon that cannot move could achieve such a thing. But then again, this world as got lots of weird things going on all of the time.
Mario felt the same way but instead he was pissed at what Melony had achieved during her childhood. "I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE SHE MET BARACK OBAMA!" He shouted as his eyes were bugging out while flaying his arms around.
Well, that was one question answered and it was time to get answer the next one. Only except this was very important as he turn towards SMG4 after his freak out of Melony's history. "So SMG4, you were a bit crazy when you took that USB off of me when I first arrived on this world. Would you mind explaining why?"
SMG4 was glad that the assassin had finally said that to him. "I'm happy that you mentioned about it, Tatsumi." He said in a monotone voice before he got out of where he was sitting and he proceeded to go to the basement to grab something.
Tatsumi was then confused at his actions and looked at everyone. "So, what do you think he's gonna do?"
His answer? The recoloured Mario soon then went back to the group as he got a book that was titled 'Genesis Arc Wiki' from the basement. The others knew where this was going as they made an irritated expression on their faces while Tatsumi was looking utterly confused as to why everyone had that facial expression. "Uh.....SMG4?"
"So, you want to know what really happened during the Ten Years Anniversary and before you met us, huh?" SMG4 questioned the assassin before he started to laugh insanely.
Tatsumi didn't know why, but he could sense his aura wasn't the same than before. "SMG4, is there something wrong?"
The response that the recoloured Mario had to give to the assassin was by reading a page of the book as he opened it. "The Genesis Arc is a science-fiction horror-mystery story arc on SMG4's channel. It is the fifth major story arc in the SMG4 series after the Waluigi Arc, the Rapper Bob Arc, the Anime Arc and the YouTube Arc."
Tatsumi suddenly has the expression of shock as he could hear SMG4's voice become too distorted. What the assassin never expected was that as SMG4 continued reading, the recoloured Mario began to levitate as he read more on what happened in the event that he called the Genesis Arc for some reason after he dropped the book into the ground, which only made the boy even more creeped out by this and he begins to back away from the meme lord. "It follows the mystery of the SMGs, the memes, and Zero. Sҽʋҽɳ ɱσɳƚԋʂ αϝƚҽɾ ƚԋҽ ҽʋҽɳƚʂ σϝ Tԋҽ YσυTυႦҽ Aɾƈ, ƚԋҽყ ɯҽɾҽ αƚƚαƈƙҽԃ Ⴆყ α ƈσɾɾυρƚҽԃ Mσɾʂԋυ, αɳԃ ƚαƙҽɳ ƚσ ƚԋҽ Iɳƚҽɾɳҽƚ Gɾαʋҽყαɾԃ ɯԋҽɾҽ SMG3 ɠαʋҽ ƚԋҽ ρʅαƈҽ υρɠɾαԃҽ σɳ ʂσƈιαʅ ʅιϝҽ ɯҽʅʅ ιɳ α ɯαყ. Tԋҽყ ϝσυɳԃ ԋιɱ, αɳԃ ԋҽ ƚσʅԃ ƚԋҽɱ αႦσυƚ ƚԋҽ ɱҽɱҽ ʅιϝҽ ƈყƈ—"
But before SMG4 could continue reading the book, he was then shot down by Mario, who was using an Anti-Material rifle that had the same model from Fallout New Vegas and it strangely didn't kill him as he landed back down on the floor. "I'm sorry SMG4, but you were going coo coo crazy, which was starting to make Tatsumi freak out a little." He then looked at the boy. "Well, without letting SMG4 getting to involved in this subject, I think me and my friends could tell you what happened on the Ten Years Anniversary." That finally got the assassin's attention as he thought of it ever since SMG4 took that USB off of him.
Luigi then looked at the assassin, who was paying full attention to what he was going to say. "In the Ten Year Anniversary, we celebrated with everyone who was with us for, you know, the past ten years. But then the memes that SMG3 had brought started to become corrupted."
"Wait, memes....can become corrupted?" The assassin spoke as he was dumbfounded at that statement.
"It's basically a long story," SMG4 told the assassin as he was back to his normal sane self as he wanted to make it short but important at the same time, "But there's the thing in our world which doesn't apply to yours called the 'Meme Life Cycle', which is when a meme materialises and gets look after properly that they materializes in the real realm. But when a meme doesn't get looked after, they become corrupted and wreak havoc," That was very informative for the assassin to hear and when he thought about it, he found it to be quite similar to the 'Fanfiction Theory' that SMG3 had told him about for some odd reason. He doesn't know why but for now he continued to hear what the recoloured Mario had to say. "When the corrupted memes took me, Mario, and SMG3 along with my two friends X and FM to a Cathedral within the Dark Web..."
"Wait, what's the Dark Web?" The assassin asked as he was starting to get interested on the Dark Web topic.
SMG4 and the others saw how Tatsumi was interested with the regards to that thing that they fought the virus in. The recoloured Mario thought of something and soon faces towards the assassin. "Well, imagine what is happening in the Empire as of right now? Well, think it like that but it's on the deeper side of the internet and it cannot be stopped. Trust me, you don't want to know what happens down there." The assassin already knew what the recoloured Mario meant by that and then he continued on what he was saying. "X and FM died when their souls were sucked out until we manage to escape. Unfortunately, the thing that sucked my friends' soul out also caught Mario, so me and SMG3 were then forced to find a way to contact our friends. As we did, the two hobos that chased us then informed all of us that the thing that kidnap Mario was a virus from another universe."
The assassin saw that everyone was afraid when the recoloured Mario said that just by looking at their eyes. He then waited for a while until he was ready to answer the next question. "Is.....everyone alright?"
"Not really...." Tatsumi then turns around to see the recoloured Mario who was a serious look in his face, "The virus wasn't your typical virus like a Typhoid for example, it was a virus with god-like powers." The assassin couldn't help but feel quite sceptical about what his friend was about to say. "It's name is Zero.....and he's a virus from another universe."
The anime boy went silent for a few moments as this was a lot to take in before saying what he had in his mind. "You've got to be kidding me!?"
SMG4 then looked at the assassin who still had a serious look in his face. "We're not kidding Tatsumi. I won't go into much detail, but when me and SMG3 were recaptured, Zero sucked the living soul out of Mario, which also caused mine and SMG3's essence to be destroyed." The Italian plumber couldn't help but to grab the wrist of his right arm as he still remembers that event from the Ten Year Anniversary. "But before he can, our friends saved us along with the two hobos who had a Guardian Pod, which is basically like a spaceship that I arrived at the Mushroom Kingdom in," The recoloured Mario didn't want to go much further since it's going to be too complex and time-consuming for the assassin, "And after an epic fight, I thanked the two Hobos for saving us and I asked what their names were. What I never expected was that their names were SMG1 and SMG2."
"Hold on...." Tatsumi stopped SMG4 in his words as he heard those three letters once again. "There are other SMGs?!"
"Yeah, I never knew that too," SMG4 had to agree with the assassin before he continued to explain what happened, "But after the two died after trapping Zero in that Guardian Pod, all of the recoloured Marios, including X and FM, cam back to life. And that's what happened in the Ten Year Anniversary. Oh, and Mario is the Avatar, which is quite strange to say the least."
Well, that made much more sense for the assassin to understand what the recoloured Mario had just stated. Speaking of which, the USB that he had did blow up but was still intact. Could it be something that was about to be played out. "Why do I have a feeling that it's eerily similar to the one that sucked me and Mario into that dimension?" He then thought about the Avatar thing that SMG4 mentioned before. It was just confusing to say the least. He had a feeling that although this Zero virus was trapped in that Guardian pod was only delaying the inevitable. "Say, I do think like that this Zero virus might be eventually freed from that thing that you said within the dark web, so be prepared and not just you..." he looked at every member of his friend group as well, "All of you."
"We will." SMG4 with determination as he understood why the assassin said that.
As Tatsumi was finished having his conversation with the recoloured Mario on the topic, Axol then thought of an opportunity of something that was in his and everyone's mind with the Melony, who was ordering pizza for herself and the others to eat as they were talking. "So Tatsumi...." The assassin looked at the former manga artist who was about to ask something, "Since you basically got what you wanted, I think it's time to tell us what your world is like since you barely even talk about it."
The green creature otaku nodded in agreement as he knew that whatever happened in the manga and the anime adaptation never actually happened in the world that the Tatsumi they all knew in. "Yeah, I want to know your friends as well."
Tari, after hearing what Boopkins had said, also looked at her assassin friend. "Yeah, I also want to know what kind of friends you have."
The three were not the only ones interested, as Melony had grabbed the four boxes of large pizzas, which were two cheese (one was for herself, obviously because of her mindset of a child), meat lovers, and Pepperoni as well as bottle of sodas, she and the rest became interested as they really wanted to know Tatsumi's friends as well. As everyone got a slice including the assassin, he then looked down before smiling at them. "Alright, I'll tell you my friends since you are all eager to know." He took a bite off a slice of the cheese pizza and he awed at the food. "My God, this food taste amazing!" He then looked at everyone who was eating their pizzas and drinking soda from their cups.
After finishing, he then started to begin talking about his group. "So, let's start with my group, Night Raid shall we?" Everyone then nodded their heads in agreement. "Well, first off, the one who introduce me to that group was none other than Leone. She's like a big sister to me, tends to drink a lot and also is a great hand-to-hand combatant which is thanks to her strength."
"Oh wow, I never knew you talk so proudly of Leone, Tatsumi!" Boopkins said as she was one of his favourite characters.
Axol felt the same as the green Otaku, "I know what you mean by that Tatsumi even though she stole your money when you two first met." Tatsumi just laughed a little of that memory. "Anyway, her Imperial Arm is Lionelle, which is a belt type one that gives the user to transform with the lion ears and claws and also enhances its strength and smell. It can also give the user a regenerative ability as well which is useful when you have no first aid."
Mario then thought of something funny for everyone to hear. Her Imperial Arm is basically a cat/human hybrid...."She doesn't chase her own tail since she is part cat right?"
The assassin looked at the idiot with uncertainty. "Probably." He awkwardly said before he moved on to the next person. "Anyway, the next one is Sheele, who is an airhead to say the least and she is a kind person." He then thought of something that he forgot to tell them about one key thing. "Oh yeah, she has a split personality that makes her deadly with her imperial Arm, Extase which can cut through anything."
The whole group then went silent when the assassin said that before they all look at the Mushroom Scout. Saiko continued to look at him before smiling. "Seems like there's another person who has a split personality, right Shroomy?" Tatsumi overhead what the Yandere had just said but he kept his question to himself to say the least.
"Oh yeah, hehe...." The Mushroom Scout chuckled as he scratched the back of his head as he didn't want to tell the assassin about his Demon-hunter personality.
"Then there's Bulat who used to be in the Imperial Military before defecting. I call him bro and not in the way that you're all thinking of." The assassin then pulled out Incursio in his back to let everyone see the weapon. "He was the former user of my Imperial Arm, Incursio, which he gave to me to look after and it as the ability to turn invisible depending on the strength of the user. There's just one thing that you should all know about bro though."
Luigi, who read the wiki page of Incursio's former user then knew what the assassin was going to say. "Let me guess, he's gay right?"
The assassin just nodded nonchalantly at the idiot's brother before he put back Incursio in his back and moved to the next person. "Then there's Lubbock. He's....uh.....quite a pervert. Actually, scratch that, he's a pervert who tends to peep at girls at the hot springs. In fact, I first met him when he was attempting to look at Leone's body as she was bathing. But he's good at controlling Cross Tails, which is a string type Imperial Arms and is a good person even though he gets beaten up for his perverted tendency." That only made Swag cry in jealously as this Lubbock guy had done the thing that he always wanted to do.
Saiko just scoffed at this as she could already tell what kind of person this Lubbock guy was. "Great, another Bob." She had to deal with Bob who was being a complete pervert when he peeped at her for quite some time. Tari just shook her head in disappointment when she heard that while Melony had no clue what Tatsumi meant by that but perhaps her friend, Axol might explain it to her one day.
The Garo just leered at the Yandere for even saying that as he was starting to like this Lubbock guy. "HeY, hE's A vErY cUlTeREd MaN tO sAy ThE lEaSt AnD i HiGHlY rEsPeCt ThAt!"
Well, that was half of the group done. Tatsumi then took a sip from his cup that was full of soda before he continued to explain his group to them. "Then there's Chelsea. She's a good person y'know. She could be quite mischievous to say the least." He can still remember her calling Mine Flat as a washboard when she was still new to Night Raid, which he knew what that meant but he didn't want to say it since he will get punched by Saiko since Bob almost called her and the group's friend Meggy that word. "But overall, she's a nice person who has got a sense in fashion." Mario then brought up the photo of the girl in question and everyone then looked at it.
Saiko then decided to ask her question as she found this Chelsea person to be quite interesting as it reminded her of another gamer girl who's good a good sense of fashion. "So, what is her Imperial Arm then?"
Tatsumi smiled at the Yandere as she would find it interesting. "Her Imperial Arm is called Gaea Foundation, which is a makeup kit that allows the user to shapeshift into any living being that they desired. This could be from a person to even an animal. It can also carry lots of things. From makeup to even lollipops. In fact, I do see her always having one all the time."
Tari had stars that filled her eyes as she could already imagine her begging Chelsea into giving her a lollipop and stuff her rubber duckies in as well. But she could already tell that her appearance which surprised. "Say, doesn't she look similar to Meggy?" Now that she thought about it, everyone else had got the same reaction as the gamer girl since they both were the same height and also had headphones for their head accessory.
The assassin, who was looking at the photo did see some similarity between his friend and their friend, Meggy. "I...would say so."
Swag, who was listening to this, then thought of something funny for everyone to hear. "How about she sucks mah lollipop? Lololololololololololo—" Everyone with the exception of Melony who's ears were covered by Axol to prevent her from hearing the pixilated idiot's words sighed at that before he got punched by Saiko for saying that inappropriate joke.
The assassin just sighed before he continued explaining his friends to them. "Moving on from that, there's Su or Susanoo if you wanted his full name. He's an organic Imperial, which he's immune to poison and toxic and can regenerate, which is powerful to say the least and the only way to destroy them is kill either the user or destroying the core, and is a house nanny, like he is a good cleaner and cook to say the least since he can cook over a thousand dishes." Everyone awed at that and they could imagine him cooking their favourite food. "His Trump Card allows him to go to his fullest potential, albeit with the cost of the user's life force if they use it three times. Oh, and he's a clean freak, so yeah make sure you tidy up properly guys."
Well, that was interesting for everyone to hear. If he was that good of a cleaner and a cook, then that would mean that he could cook Mario unlimited Spaghetti for a long time. Speaking of which, SMG4 then thought of something. "Perhaps this Su person can keep Mario in check in case he gets out of control."
Everyone then turn towards Tatsumi as he was continuing explain his friend group. "Next we have Mine."
Swag, as usual of being an idiot, tilted his head at the assassin. "Mine? Do you mean by Yours?"
Tari shook her head before she corrected the idiot soldier. "Swag, the girl's name is called Mine."
"Yes. So it Yours then?" Swag then looked at the shy gamer girl.
Chris just sighed at his friend's idiocracy as he had a clear view on the name that he mentioned about. "No swag you idiot, her name is actually Mine."
Tatsumi was glad that Swag and Tari knew the pinkette's misleading name and after that he then continued. "She's a pinkette who is quite mean and temperamental at first, but when you get to know her she is a kind person. That was because of her backstory, which I won't touched on since it's too personal." Everyone knew what the assassin mean by that as they were all informed by Axol that she was discriminated due to her Western Tribe blood which they felt sorry for. "Other than that, she's a good sniper and she calls herself a "Genius Sniper". Her Imperial Arm is called Pumpkin, which is a rifle-type Imperial Arm, which can be varied depending on the user's situation."
Hearing that this Mine was a genius sniper, Shroomy took interest in this girl as he wish to verse her in a sniper competition. Bob, who didn't think the same way as the Mushroom then looked at the assassin with a deadpan expression underneath his hood. "WhY dOeS sHe CaLlS hErSeLf A gEnIuS sNiPeR? YoU'Re AwArE tHaT hEr CoLoUr PiNk WoUlD gIvE aWaY hEr pOsItIoN aNd ShE's LoUd LiKe A pIpSqUeAk, RiGhT?"
Mario, who knew where Bob was going to, then added one little information to the assassin. "Yeah, and she's also flat chested like a washboard." That resulted in him getting immediate glares by Saiko, who got her combat knife out and was smiling at him, which resulted in his head to shrink in fear.
Tatsumi just sighed at what the idiot had just said. He didn't want to say about his mannerism again since it was meant to be explaining who his friends were. Without wasting a second, he then moved on to the next group, which was his leader. "The one who leads Night Raid is my boss Najenda. She a good tactician, intelligent, calm and keeping the group's moral in check, she is a good leader even though her jokes are terrible."
Hearing that made the recoloured Mario thought of something that might cheer the assassin up. "Well, I think your leader should learn jokes from the meme master then." He said as he made a Caesar's hand pose from the series JoJo.
Mario, on the other hand, had to say something about his friend's boss. "Tatsumi, there's just one thing that I need you and everyone to be informed about. Your boss's appearance well....." This sounded serious and everyone then turn around to see the idiot pulling out something from his cartoon pocket. They were all soon caught off guard when Mario was now holding out a photo of Tatsumi's boss and looked at the assassin and everyone else while holding down his laughter before he said to all of them, "Her appearance is that of a MAN!"
When the Italian said that he begins to laugh very hard, Bob and Swag decided to join in the laughter as they looked at the photo of Tatsumi's boss. The others, meanwhile, were giving the trio just a deadpan expression on their faces as they didn't find it funny while Melony was confused as to why they were laughing and Saiko getting irritated at how they are offending a woman even though this Najenda person wasn't with them.
"Oh My GoD, ShE dOeS lOoKs LiKe A mAn!" Bob commented while still laughing before he faced the assassin, "No WoNdEr ShE's CaLlEd 'ThE HuNk Of ThE ReBeLlIoN' hUh, TaTsUmI?"
Mario was then wearing Najenda's eyepatch and also a wig similar to her hair as he was no longer holding the photo. "Look at me. I'm a man! I'm a man!" This only made the three laugh even harder.
Tatsumi just scowls at them before he pinched the bridge of his nose due to their rude humour. "You guys should be careful of saying that to her and plus, it's not even funny. And Mario, what did I say about calling my boss that?!" He'd still remembered Su referring to his boss as a man, which made him and Leone laugh but only resulted on them getting lumps in their heads and then being lectured by their boss.
Saiko was looking at them as she felt a bit offended by their remark. "Why are you even making fun of her then?"
Luigi had to agree with what Tatsumi and Saiko had to say. "You guys, stop laughing! This isn't funny!"
The idiotic trios, as usual, just ignored what Saiko and Luigi had stated and continued to laugh at the picture of Najenda until the idiotic soldier then thought of something else that they can laugh at. "You know what else is funny?" Everyone including the assassin then saw Swag then wearing a wig that represents a pinkette of Night Raid. Mine. "Look at me!" He called out, which only made Bob and Mario laugh even more harder. "I'm Mine and I'm in love with Tatsumi. I can't wait for him to put his dragon-sized willy inside of me and penetrate my insides!"
"Oh for f*** sakes, don't do this swag!" Chris uttered as he facepalm since he knew where this was going.
Tatsumi's response was that he was heavily blushing since he knew where the three were going to. Melony couldn't hear anything since Axol covered her ears to prevent her from hearing any of those words that might corrupt her. Saiko had an expression of disgust while Luigi, Tari, Boopkins, Shroomy and Bowsers were staying silent as they didn't want to escalate the "comedy" that was happening, whereas SMG4 and Chris then facepalm at this.
What they didn't expect from this was something that Swag stated that made the Yandere snap and the two idiots laugh even more harder to the point that they slammed their hands to the ground to control their laughter. "And I also have a flat chest with little pointy things like a washboard, which I need to drink a lot of almond milk to make my boobies grow. That also applies to Me—"
All of a sudden, Saiko then got up to her feet and her head got bigger, which resulted in the three looking at her. "OI! WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING INTO?!" She yelled at the soldier while her voice clip was that of the 'REEEEEEEE' sound effect.
"*Scream*" Swagmaster could only do as his head miniaturised in fear as he was scared at the anime's reaction while Mario and Bob went silent upon seeing her reaction. The anime continued to stare at him before Swag continued his sentence as his head then went back to normal. "Well, I mean that Mine has got a flat chest like Me—"
Saiko's only action was to grab Swag's pingas and she started to squeeze it really hard and no longer had the wig on him. The pixilated idiot then shrieked in pain as his private part was getting squished before he screamed in a high pitch tone like a little bitch as his eyes were bugging out in pain which causes the males with the exception of Luigi and Chris to cover their private parts. "Chris, she's crushing my little Swag willy!"
His friend just looks at him with a deadpan expression on his face although he couldn't even make one. "Well that's what you get for making fun of a woman's sensitive and self-conscious body part, you misogynistic idiot."
It took a while for the idiotic soldier to calm down and for Mario and Bob to get scolded by Saiko after making fun of Najenda to make things much calmer. The assassin realised that he was down to the last member of Night Raid. One that he knew that they might take a liking in. "Alright, so I left this person to be the last one in Night Raid before I move on to the other groups. So pay attention." Everyone didn't say a word and they were all eager on how this person that their assassin friend was going to say. "The last person is Akame and she's basically the embodiment of an Ace for Night Raid. Her Imperial Arm is the One Cut Killer: Murasame, which is a Katana type Imperial Arm which can kill an enemy in, you name it, with one cut due to the poison of the weapon. Not only that but she's a good cook too, if you all consider that she's a big eater to say the least when it comes to meat...actually, when it comes to food in general."
That caught everyone's attention as they heard that this Akame girl that the assassin was highly speaking of was a big eater. This then turn towards another person who was hoarding a lot of Spaghetti in one go and could already think of one thing. "Mario and Akame would make a terrifying eating duo."
Axol took an interest in Akame as he found her backstory to be quite tragic. "Well, I do feel sorry for her since she didn't have a proper childhood but at least she's a supportive and caring person Tatsumi."
The boy couldn't help but laugh a little on that statement. "Well you got that right."
SMG4, who found this Akame person to be quite similar to one of their friends, then thought of something. "I can imagine Meggy and Akame becoming friends since they are both good at fighting. Well, on the less violent side for Meggy since she has standards." Mario and Tatsumi didn't have to have a talk on that since the two had already had a talk with regards to that topic.
Tatsumi just wanted to move on from that topic as he wanted to keep introducing his friends to them. "Then we have another group called the Jaegers. Think about it like Night Raid but they were on the Empire's side before defecting." He was thinking of someone that he could to them. "Well, starting off from the Jaegers, there's Wave."
Boopkins and Axol already was aware that Tatsumi was going with this person and they consider him to be one of their favourite characters. "He was part of the Imperial Navy before joining the Jeagers. He's a level-headed and easy-going person and he wouldn't mind all of you, especially you Mario." He looked at the idiot before looking back at everyone, "Wave's Imperial is called Carnage Incarnate: Grand Chariot, which is a full body armour Imperial Arm like Incursio. But the difference between the two is that his Imperial Arm is in the state of Equilibrium, meaning that it cannot be evolve like mine. Oh, and he likes the sea." Boopkins laughed at that since he is a sea-creature himself.
"Why is this Wave guy part of the Navy?" Swag suddenly spoke to the assassin.
Chris knew where this was going towards and he didn't want to escalate what his friend was about to say. "Swag!"
All of a sudden, the pixilated soldier then added to his sentence, "He's aware that the navy is gay, lol."
For how many times today, the assassin just sighed as he ignored the pixilated idiot. "The next one is Run. He was teacher before joining the Imperial Military and the Jaegers since there was something that was very personal to him. Let's not touch into that subject."
Swag, again, wanted to say something but his friend just stopped him. "Don't even think about it swag!" Chris wanted to make sure that Swag wasn't beaten up after making fun of Mine's sensitive body part as well as their friend Meggy.
Axol was quite interested in this Run character as well as he could already tell that he was a good person from the start. "I say, having a former teacher is nice. Oh, wasn't his Imperial Arm called Mastema, right?"
Tatsumi nodded at the former manga artist before he looked at the rest of the group. "Yep. His is a wing-type Imperial Arm which can grant the user flight for a short amount of time. Oh, and his Trump card is basically just a shield reflection."
"Huh, that's a useful Imperial Arm." Everyone apart from Melony who was still eating her cheese pizza thought.
The next one that Tatsumi is going to say was going to be quite heart-warming for a few to hear. "Next, there's Bols. At first he seemed to be an intimidating guy, but when you get to know him a bit better, he is just a shy guy who wields a flamethrower, which is what his Imperial Arm was. Just to let you know that he's also a family man since he has got one."
Bowser chuckled at the assassin as he could fully understand to where he was going into. "I say, he's a good father to say the least as you describe him." Tatsumi had to agree with Mario's former rival. At least he didn't lose custody of his only child unlike him, but he manage to make himself a good father to all of his children after that.
Boopkins and Axol had to agree with the Koopa king and the green creature could already imagine how his younger brother would be treated by him. "I wonder how he treats JubJub?"
"Yeah, like how he Bols his...." Swag was about to say before he felt a hand on his shoulder to see his friend who was shaking his head.
"Swag, no!" Chris reminded him of his limit on his dark jokes.
The idiot soldier just went silent as he got that response and everyone was glad that Chris was stopping his partner from saying any more offensive jokes or insults.
Well, three of the seven members of the Jaegers were now named so he thought that saying all of their names would be helpful to them. "So, then there's the person who caused me to go to this world called Stylish, which I mentioned to you guys before. And to be honest with you guys, I....don't know much about that guy except that he's a former scientist of the Empire and likes to experiment. His imperial Arm is called Perfector, which is just a pair of gloves that can do anything flawlessly."
Everyone looked at the assassin with a dumbfounded expression since he did forget one thing about this doctor. Bob did have to say this to the assassin. "DoEs He HaVe A tHiNg FoR mEn?"
Mario just looked at the garo as he was asking that question. "Bob, it's NOT that type of fanfiction story that's happening right now! So, can you please shut up about it?!"
Most of the group, including Tatsumi, already knew what Mario meant by that and the room went silent for about a minute. Now that the assassin has got a clearer view of the mad scientist, all he could do was to shiver at that thought. "Moving on then, there's Seyru."
"Oh WoW, sHe'S aLrEaDy GiVeS mE a ViBe Of SoMeOnE sImIlAr To HeR." The Garo blurted out as he found this girl to have quite similar mindset to a certain cop with a monitor for a head.
Tatsumi sighed at the hooded figure as he already knew where he was going to ramble about. "Okay first off, she was like that and almost killed Sheele and Mine, at least from where I am from. She was quite keen on serving justice but after some pep talking and putting some sense into her, she's no longer the girl she was before." That caught Saiko's attention as she had thought about this girl and already she could sympathise with her due to the girl being blindly following the Empire. "Her Imperial is Hekatonkheires or Koro if you want it to be much simpler, which is another organic Imperial Arm that can grow in size increasing its strength and durability. Which reminds me..." He looks back at his idiotic friend as he was giving him a warning. "Mario, whatever you do to Koro, he won't hesitate to maul you alive if you try to kick him."
SMG4, although he had some knowledge about Tatsumi's world, also had to agree with him. "Yeah Mario, just don't do anything stupid, okay?"
"Ookie dokie!" The idiot just simple answered as he was warned by the two.
Now then, onto the last two members. "Next, there's Akame sister, Kurome."
Hearing the two's name brought thoughts on everyone's mind. Now that they thought about it, it made obvious sense that they were sisters. Shroomy knew some similarities between the two. "Akame and Kurome. Makes you think that they share the same appearance and interest, huh."
The assassin just chuckled at the mushroom scout's response as he already knew the difference between the two. "Well, you may be right Shroomy since they share the same ending of their name, which ends in "me" and have large appetites, there is just two key difference between them. Akame is the older sister who has got red eyes and she likes eating meat, whereas Kruome is the younger sister who has got black eyes and she likes to eat on her sweets which is mainly candy or cookies." Hearing that made the shy gamer girl gush at this as she share the same interest as her.
Axol laughed at what the assassin had just said and he knew what these names were since he had lived in Japan before. "Yeah, and her Imperial Arm is called March of the Dead: Yatsufusa, which can power and reanimate a total of eight corpses, right with the cost of the user's reaction time, right?"
"Right." Tatsumi answered as he nodded his head.
"Hold on..." Mario suddenly spoke when he heard Kurome's Imperil Arm. "Tatsugasa?"
The recoloured Mario just sighed at what the idiot had just said. "No Mario, it's Yatsufusa."
That manage to earn a response from the idiot. "Oh, katufusu." Tatsumi, Axol, Boopkins, and SMG4 didn't want to say anything as they didn't want to waste anytime correcting Mario on how to say Kurome's former Imperial Arm.
When everything seems to be over, there was one more thing that the boy remembered about Akame's younger sister. "Oh, I forgot to mention that she wanted to kill her older sister at one point before they manage to rekindle their relationship as sisters."
That caused the Mario brothers to look at each other and although they don't spend time together, that was kinda messed up. Luigi then gave a smile to the assassin as he was happy that it didn't happen. "Well, I'm glad that's over and done with."
"You got that right." Tatsumi nodded to the idiot's brother but he did leave out a point that she was in a relationship with Wave since it would cause some disturbance among the group.
"But still, that's some f**ked up sh*t!" Mario could utter from hearing that.
Finally, the assassin was now into the last person who was the leader of the Jaegers. "Alright everyone so I left this last person because she is the strongest person within the Empire. Boopkins, Axol, I am ware you already know who I am talking about." The two otakus nodded at him before he face the entire group. "The one that I am on about is none other than Esdeath."
That got the group interested in this girl and they all wondered what she is doing with Tatsumi's group. But then again, it's different to the one that both Axol and Boopkins have knowledge of. "Wow, I can't believe you manage to convince her to join the Revolution....even though her mindset is unhindered."
Mario, again, who confused by the name of this woman. "Wait....Esnelth?"
"Oh God, not this again!" The meme lord uttered as he facepalm at what his friend had to say.
Tatsumi just looked at him as he was going to try to correct him. "No Mario, it's Esdeath."
"Oh...." Mario spoke again as he heard the assassin correcting the woman's name, "Esdelpth?" He then brought a photo out from his cartoon pocket that showed a tall, beautiful, and slender woman with long, light blue hair and blue eyes and she was wearing a General's apparel with long sleeves with buttons on the upper arms, a blue scarf on her neck, and high-heeled boots. What was noticeable was that she had a tattoo on her chest. Swag was looking at her cleavage and saw how big her breasts were, which made the Yandere look in disgust and his friend Chris just shook his head in shame.
Axol, who saw the photo of Esdeath, then decided to ask his own question in regards to this girl. "I think I might explain her for you, Tatsumi." the boy looked over at the former manga artist who was going to say something very important before nodding at him in approval. Axol then looked at his friends. "She was part of a tribe that was within the North that hunted Danger Beast and she was close to her father who was the leader of the tribe, which they firmly believe in this saying "the strong lives and the weak dies" which she truly believed in which was proven right after her father died and dissed him for being weak after his tribe was attacked. That was a nice family dynamic, huh?" He stopped in that sentence as he knew how someone would react to that.
And that someone was Tari, who put both of her hands on her mouth in shock when she heard that. It was heart-breaking for her to hear. "She said that to her own father?! How could she!?" The others also had the same reaction to her but couldn't utter a single word from their mouths.
"Well, that's what being part of a tribe is Tari unfortunately," The gamer girl looked at the assassin who was staring at her, "And after that event, she then joined the Imperial Military where she quickly rose to the rank of General, which won't surprise some of you and she was offered her Imperial Arm, Demon's Extract, which give the user the ability to manipulate ice. What's shocking is that it didn't have a trump card until Esdeath then created one called....."
"Mahapadma, which is basically just freezing time for a short amount of time." Axol finished the assassin's words.
Boopkins, who was thinking about that, then said in his head...."Why does it remind me of Dio's The World Ability from JoJo?"
The assassin was glad that the former manga artist was helping him give his support on all of the talking. "You got that right. But as impressive it may sound, there was one problem though. Since her Imperial Arm is that of a Danger Beast's blood originating from the north, it was locked up due to it driving people insane upon drinking a sample of it. Her, on the other hand, just drank the whole chalice of it." Hearing that made some of the people sick to their stomach which made all of them stop eating their slices of pizzas.
"But Tatsumi, she was already coo coo crazy before obtaining her Imperial Arm since she still believe in that philosophy, so that was no problem for her." Mario stated as he then got up as he was looking at Tatsumi with a very super deformed head. "And after a while, when she first saw your smile, she became the very worst thing of all of humankind. Worse than a total monster that she is." Just then, the light darkens around everyone with the exception of Mario who got his hands up to his face level and was smiling menacingly. "A SIMP!"
This made some of them laughed at the idiot's words as they knew that it was true. Tatsumi, on the other hand, was confused by what Mario had just commented. "Uh....simp?"
The idiot, upon realising that the assassin hasn't heard that word before, then decided to explain what that word means. "Oh well, the definition is that it's basically Someone who does way too much for a person they like. For example, Axol simping over with Melony."
That caused the former manga artist to immediately punch the idiot for saying that while some other people like Bob laughed at that whereas the watermelon girl was confused to what the idiot had to say. Tatsumi, on the other hand, just sighed at what he had just heard and he just looked at Axol while shaking his head upon this discovery. "Really Axol?! You know what she was before? A frickin' watermelon!"
"Um...well...." The axolotl then answered while blushing as he was quite embarrassed to what he had just heard.
After that whole ordeal and everyone calming down, the assassin then decided to tell all of them about Suzuka, Mez, Cosmina, and Dorothea to them. The two otakus were surprised to hear the last two members but they knew that they were completely different people from the manga. Cosmina was interesting to Bob since her Imperial Arm was a microphone called Heavy Pressure which can shatter peoples' bones and that he found it useful for a career like rapping. Then there were the two former members of the Four Rakashasa Demons, while there was no opinion made on Mez, some of them like Bob, Saiko, SMG4, and Mario found Suzuka to be quite weird. Not just plain weird, they found her to be mentally weird since they were informed by the boy that she was a masochist and is interested in BOTH boys and girls. There would've been more dialogue but due the author hasn't thought about it much and that he was a lazy bloke.
"Damn, that's a lot of anime thots that you have in your group." Mario stated and he immediately got punched by Saiko for that since she and Tari were very offended to what he was implying.
"And yeah, that's what you need to know about my group of friends so far." Tatsumi then finished explaining the subject that he kept to himself for a while to the SMG4 squad and he ignored the Italian's comment since he found it to be very offensive. "Some may not like you at first, but they will eventually like all of you...well, except you Mario."
The others knew why they wouldn't like the idiot for an obvious reason but before any of them could even, Tatsumi then said something that none of them never expected. "Well, I had this in my head for a bit, but I think that my group of friends except the last four members would go well with some of you and your other friends as well."
Now this got everyone's interest when the assassin said that. "Well, since you explained them to us, let's hear it then."
The assassin then pondered for a bit as he was thinking about it before it suddenly popped up in his head. "Well, starting off, Mario would go with me since we share some similar experiences and not including intelligence, which goes to Tari as well. Meggy would get along well with Akame when it comes to training and eating. In fact, me and Mario do share the same friendship bond with the two and that we rarely quarrel. Mine and Chelsea for some reason reminds me of that Belle girl although I do believe that they have the same taste in shopping. Lubbock I believe can go along with Bob and Boopkins, but I would say that Bob would go well with him. Sheele with Shroomy as they are both air-heads and may have deadly split-personalities, bro with Luigi since they are good people, Su could go well will Melony since both have God-Like abilities. Swag with Sis since I say they both tend to cause some trouble and could go well together as friends. And boss, will, she could go well with you, SMG4 when it comes to jokes." He looked at the meme lord who was looking back at him. "In fact, your rival, SMG3, could go well with Esdeath since all of you share rivalry between boss and Esdeath with the exception of the belief of the strong lives and the weak dies. Wave, I might say could go well with Chris since they are both level-headed people in a crazy group." The sane pixilated soldier was thankful for that and he wish he could speak to this Wave person one day. " Run with Axol since they both remind me of teachers, Seyru with Saiko, Bols with Bowser since they both have a family, Stylish reminds me of Whimpu which I could say that they can go together, and lastly Kurome with JubJub since they are the youngest sibling."
Hearing the assassin's words did bring those thoughts into the SMG4 gang. Mario, who had this talk with Tatsumi, was aware that he was his foil in some way which also goes the same for Akame and Meggy. They also had the thought of the people that the boy mentioned before and that they could go well together. Tari chuckled at that. "Well, from what I could tell, you really do have good friends Tatsumi and that makes me want to meet them more."
The assassin for how many times chuckled at this. "You will...one day."
"I jUsT wAnT tO sEe WhAt LuBbOcK dOeS." The garo commented as he wish to teach this person on how to be a smexy ninja.
His best friend had to admit that he would go well with the string user. "Bob, I think you and Lubbock would be great friends." Saiko could only sighed at the green sea creature's response as she could already tell that things would get too uncomfortable for the girls at the hot spring. Now that she thought about it, she really wanted to go to one along with Tari when Meggy gets back from her vacation in Port Aurora.
"Chris, do you hear that? I am with busty blondie." Swag told his friend.
"*sigh*, I guess you and Leone would be good friends." The sane pixilated soldier uttered.
Seeing the SMG4 squad chatting among themselves did made the assassin feel warm inside. For once, he was starting to get a bit open to them despite knowing that Axol and Boopkins knowing a lot about it. There was just one thing that he could only think about them. "You may be a bunch of misfits, but after spending time with some of you, you guys are really good people."
C
Morning came on the castle as everyone was sleeping in the main room in sleeping bags with the exception of Melony who was sleeping on the couch. Tari immediately woke up and felt that there was something on her left hand. "Huh....?" He opened her eyes and saw that she was holding a syringe that had dark blue colour for its liquid. The girl got confused, who did even send this to her? Just then she felt her phone vibrating and she pulled it out from her pocket to see a text from an unknown person.
"That syringe is for Tatsumi. I trust you to keep it safe for the time being until he started showing the side effects of using Incursio. Oh, and you might as well tell one of your friends."
Seeing the message surprised her. Who was this person and did they manage to find a way from stopping the Danger Beast within the assassin's Imperial Arm? "Hey Tari," She heard a familiar voice and the gamer girl turns around to see Axol, who was looking at the syringe in her robotic arm, "What are you holding?"
"Uh, I think it might be something that might stop Tatsumi from having his body and mind being consumed by his weapon." The shy gamer girl answered.
Now that got the axolotl's interest. Who could've known the side....Just before he could even think of, the two then heard the doorbell ring. This alone woke everyone up. Tatsumi was the first one to get up from his sleeping bag. "Ugh, what gives?"
"My god, that sound is so loud." Saiko complained as she rubbed her eyes.
SMG4 then stretched his arms upon walking up. "I always keep on forgetting that the castle's doorbell rings very loudly." Everyone then remembered that when they all first met the assassin.
The recoloured Mario then got out of his sleeping bag and walked towards the door to open it. As it turns out, it was Whimpu, who was holding the box device that Tatsumi used to arrive in their world. "Oh, hey Whimpu."
The simp scientist smiled at the meme lord. "Hey SMG4, I manage to fix the device that Tatsumi had used to arrive to your world." He then turned it around and that the recoloured Mario could see some changes that the scientist had made. "It did take me quite a bit of time to repair it."
He then handed the device to the meme lord who was now holding it in his hands. "Thank you." With that done, the assassin could finally go back to his home world and reunite with his group.
As the scientist gave the device, he spotted an envelop that was stuck to the wall with a throwing knife. "Say, what's that?"
SMG4 then turns to the left side and also what the otaku scientist was looking at. Without a second, he then pulled the knife out and saw that the words "Night Raid" was written on it. "Well, I might give this to Tatsumi then." And with that, he gave the boy a wave of goodbye before shutting the castle's door. He walked up to where his friends were and looked at the assassin. "Hey, I got this letter for you, Tatsumi?"
The assassin raised an eyebrow upon hearing this while everyone was starting to get suspicious. "Wait, a letter.....for me?"
The recoloured Mario then handed the letter to the assassin. "It was written to you. I don't know why, but it may be something important."
Well, it did sound important which the boy could tell by looking at the meme lord's eyes. Without wasting a second, the assassin then opened the letter and began to read it. "Huh, it's says that the person is willing to stop if I confront him in a canyon....alone when the sun and the moon meets."
All of them were wary of what the letter had just said and perhaps the assassin could deal with this along. Mario, however, who was not in his stupid state, saw that there was something wrong with this letter. "Why would this person want to see Tatsumi alone?"
After reading out the letter. The assassin then got up and walked up to Mario. "Hey, so I know you may be stupid, but I want you to keep this USB okay?" But before the idiot could even utter a word, Tatsumi then handed the device to his hand and with that he then walked back to his room so that he could get some rest.
The others were confused as to why the assassin was acting like that. Luigi started to feel like he was in his weird state. "So, what's his problem."
Saiko could already tell that this was Tatsumi's problem and not theirs. "I don't know why but I have a feeling that this person who killed and had fun with those twenty-two women wants to confront him alone."
The others didn't know the exact reason why but for now, they will not intervene on what the assassin was going to do. Tari then looked at Mario who made a really suspicious expression and was deep down in his thought. "Um....Mario?"
What the Italian said next was something that none of them would ever hear from him. "Mario sense something really sinister is about to happen."
C
In the canyon that was not far from the castle, Tatsumi was making his way to the designated location where this person told him to meet. He didn't want to get SMG4 gang involved, so he decided to leave the way out of the castle that he didn't get noticed by any of them. He also brought in Incursio just in case that his opponent might be too powerful for him to handle.
Or so he thought. Mario, along with the members of the SMG4 squad were peaking from off the cliff to see the assassin making his way to the meeting point. Tari was a bit worried that she and the others were stalking the assassin. "Um, Mario. Why are we doing this? You know that stalking is a crime."
Mario already knew why he forced the others into stalking the assassin, but he had a good reason why. "C'mon Tari, this is the sake for Tatsumi since he is alone. And besides, we're going to help him if things get out of hands." He also heard the irony within her words as he knew that the assassin watched them during the Friday Night Funkin' chapters.
Well, that was a good reason why and everyone could understand it. What they didn't believe was that Mario had dropped his stupid persona and was a bit serious. The gamer girl had her thoughts on her friend. "He seems serious about it and I cannot figure out the reason why."
Back down to where the assassin was at, he then looked around the area to see it with a large open area with rocks covering the area and that it seems like its this type of area where people usual fights. "Okay, what's going on here. First off, this person told me to meet at this place and now he's gone, just what the hell is going on?!"
As he was looking around the area in a confused manner, there was something that made him stop looking. "Well, hello there." The boy instantly freeze as he instantly recognise the voice.
Tatsumi then turns around and he couldn't believe on who he was seeing, who was sitting down on the boulder.....menacingly. "What the...."
The boy wasn't the only one who had the same reaction. The SMG4 squad was also shocked at who was seeing. Saiko and Swag started to feel a bit angry at seeing this person whereas Luigi, Tari, and everyone else were shocked at what they were witnessing.
But, out of all the group's reaction, Axol and Boopkins reacted the most since they knew who this person was. "No way..." that was the only thing that the green creature was thinking about and he immediately gotten flashbacks from watching the Anime.
The former mange artist felt the same way as the green creature. "It can't be..."
Tatsumi, and SMG4's group who was still peaking at the cliff immediately knew who this person was. And it was all thanks to Mario showing them the picture of this individual from earlier on. And it was none other than...
Former Wild Hunt Leader and Prime Minister's Son: Syrua
A/N: Yep, you got that right you sons of bitches! Why do you think this mini-arc is called 'Old Score Arc' then huh?! Now then, the next chapter will may be my most epic one of them all since it will be a blend of Akame Ga Kill's fighting style as well as SMG4's fighting style as well. Now if you think that I am going to let Syrua of all people live through multiple chapters? Oh boy, you're wrong. If you want to figure out what will happen next, then you have to stay tune for the next chapter. Oh, and holy f**k, this may be the longest chapter of this fanfic story that is around 12k words.
