Mega City, Earth 20XX...

"Stand-a down!" Mecha Mario ordered, using his arm cannon to strike down the police force. His pellets luckily missed the civilians, but that did not help the vehicles which were greatly damaged in the crossfire. He stood on a roof, far from anyone able to reach him.

"Our weapons are useless!" an officer shouted, lowering his laser pistol for a moment to pant.

"Then stand down."

The police turned around, seeing someone clad in red and grey. His red helmet contained visors that shielded his eyes, he had an arm cannon like the mysterious robot and a shield strapped to his back. "I don't want to remind you again. I have this covered." he ordered, gesturing for the people to leave.

Once he saw the immediate area was evacuated, the red-clad robot brought his gaze to the attacker. "What do you want? And where is Rock?" he asked.

'It is no coincidence that he appeared as your brother disappeared, Blues. But make sure he doesn't harm anybody.' Doctor Light said through his communicator.

"...Right." Blues sighed. He really didn't like working with his creator. But Roll insisted that he helped find their brother: Mega Man. And he can't say no to her no matter what, much to his own chagrin.

Mecha Mario jumped down from his spot and came to the ground. "You-a must be one of the-a heroes of this world. I am-a Mecha Mario. Your-a brother is a minion to-a Sigma. He's-a out there doing his-a bidding and-a fulfilling our goal."

"Why?" Proto-Man grunted. "Why come here?"

The robot shot at Blues, who slid out of the way of the shot before aiming a charged shot at the roboticized plumber. Mecha Mario jumped out of the way, shooting a red fireball out of his buster, nearly hitting Blues. Luckily, Proto-Man grabbed his shield, placed it in front of him and used it to absorb the heat.

As Mecha Mario came closer to him, Proto-Man uppercutted the roboticized plumber before adding a charged shot with it, launching him through the wall of an empty building. Mecha Mario held onto the wall for a moment before he ran ahead. He began to spin around, giving him the appearance of a miniature tornado. Blues got caught and took a bunch of punches, loud clanging noises heard on each collision of metal upon metal.

Proto-Man deflected a fireball with a charged shot, neutralizing the two energy orbs. "You got some serious weapons. Who designed you? Was it Wily behind this?"

Suddenly, a red beam shot up in the sky. Mecha Mario shook his head, "No. It-a was the wish of-a Sigma." he pointed his arm cannon ahead again. He shot a ball of ice in Proto-Man's direction, prompting him to roll underneath it. "The Unity Engines have-a all been activated. It's-a only a matter of time-a before your-a worlds fall."

Proto-Man whacked Mecha Mario with his shield, smacking him in the head. The roboticized plumber then hopped in the air using another ability and slammed his fist down at Blues, who took the attack after moving in the wrong direction.

"Alright, pal." Proto-Man muttered, raising his arm cannon, "Send Sigma my regards."


Outside Toad Town, Mushroom Kingdom...

Luigi deflected the Spring Shot from M'Egga Man, who was standing next to the Unity Engine he activated. "It's no use, Luigi. It's only a matter of time before your world dies."

"Where's-a Mario?" the green plumber asked. He shivered, never really having to protect the world like this on his own. He usually had his brother by his side. But at least he wasn't alone in this battle.

A grunt got M'Egga Man's attention and the Roboticized Master was unprepared for Yoshi diving in and attacking him with a literal flurry of kicks in the midair. Once the attack ended, M'Egga Man grabbed Yoshi's foot and tossed him aside. "So, you got help after all. It's not gonna do much for you."

"W-What do we do, Yoshi? I-I'm-a scared!" Luigi admitted, holding his hat nervously.

"Yoshi Yoshi Yoshi! (We just have to hold him off until Mario arrives)" Yoshi said.

Luigi gulped, "Y-You're right. The princess w-wanted us to protect the kingdom." he held up his fists, "I-a guess we-a have to."

M'Egga Man laughed, leaping in the air and revealing a giant wrecking ball. Luigi and Yoshi yelped in surprise, diving out of the way. The ball created a crater on the floor.

"Yoshi Yoshi! (That was close!)! The green dinosaur commented, exhaling in relief.

Nodding, Luigi stood up, "Y-You're-a telling me." he dusted off his overalls, "Now-a... we-a have to make-a sure he doesn't-a win and-a find Mario."

"You'll never get to him!" M'Egga Man yelled, "He's another world doing the bidding of our master!" he shouted, throwing an Egg Bomb in their direction. Luigi scowled, kicking the bomb back in the Roboticized Master's direction, making it explode next to him, causing him to trip on his side.

Yoshi used his tongue to swallow another bomb and spat it directly in the former Blue Bomber's face, stunning him. "Yoshi Yoshi! (We want to know where Mario is at)!'

"Ugh. You're lucky my masters programmed me with a translater for you." M'Egga Man admitted, "But I already told you. The chances of finding him are very slim."

Out of nowhere, M'Egga Man was headbutted by Luigi, who performed a missile dive directly into the Roboticized Master's chest. "We-a will save-a him!" he declared, flipping onto his legs, throwing a fireball directly at M'Egga Man.

"Oh, you can try." the robot smirked, blocking the attack.


Mystic Ruins, Mobius...

"It's no use, guys! I can't shut off the machine!" shouted Tails, who was kneeling next to the Unity Engine. He had been working on turning it off for the past few minutes, but the beam aimed at the sky threatened to make itself bigger by the second.

Knuckles blinked, "What? Now what? Who the heck even placed this thing here?"

"I did."

A ball of gossamer hit the echidna, surprising him for a second. But he was unprepared for the foot that kicked him in the head, knocking him on his back. Knuckles groaned, "Huh? What the heck are you supposed to be? Another bot built by Eggman?"

"The doctor is getting bizarre in his designs." Shadow huffed.

"I am the Metallic Mecha-Spider." the roboticized Spider-Man boasted. "Yeah, I'm keeping the nickname."

"Hmph. Another puppet created by the doctor." Shadow muttered, curling into a ball. The black hedgehog was caught off guard by Mecha-Spider grabbing him and slamming him on the floor.

"I got hit by enough dodge-balls in my lifetime." Mecha-Spider commented, webbing up Shadow's feet.

"Ha!" yelled a pink hedgehog, slamming her cartoony yellow mallet down upon the Roboticized Spider, bringing it upon his head and hitting him like a nail. "What did you do to my darling, Sonic?"

Mecha-Spider grabbed the hammer and tossed it aside, throwing Amy onto the ground, "I did nothing. You only have Sigma to thank for the new world revolution."

"Tails! Keep working on that machine! The three of us can handle this bucket of bolts!" Knuckles insisted.

"Four."

Mecha-Spider was caught off-guard by the shuriken placed on his arm. He yanked it off and looked away, seeing a purple chameleon reveal itself from camoflauge. "Espio? What are you doing here?" the red echidna asked.

Espio scowled at the robot, "The Chaotix are doing their best in evacuating the city with Rouge and Omega. I decided to help in stopping whoever this is."

Mecha-Spider was about to say something, but he was hit by Shadow's Spin-Dash, knocking him in the head. "Alright, pal. That was rude." he commented in disgust. He shot a line of webbng in Knuckles' direction and hitting his leg, pulling him toward him. Knuckles grunted, curling into a ball and uppercutting the Roboticized Master.

Knuckles watched as Amy spun around, whacking Mecha-Spider once again with a powerful tornado spin. She kicked the robot before hopping away, allowing Shadow to attack with a Chaos Spear, and he tossed the electric yellow energy directly at Mecha-Spider, causing him to short-circuit for only a second.

"Yeah. Not bad moves for a bunch of Looney Tunes rejects." Mecha-Spider commented, "And I'm from a world of cartoony ponies."

"You're more insane than I thought!" Knuckles yelled, seeing Espio deliver a powerful kick to Mecha-Spider.

"Nah. I'm just a robot doing his job." Mecha-Spider boasted.


Ponyville, Equestria...

Eris placed her hands on the Unity Engine, attempted to use her magic to stop its power. She screamed loudly as red electric sparks surrounded her body, "Agh! I-I can't stop it! B-But maybe I can stall it!"

"We'll hold him off in the meantime!" Twilight insisted, shooting a beam of magic in Sonic-Man's direction. The blue robot swiftly moved to the side in a blur. Twilight teleported and buckled Sonic-Man in the leg, causing him to buckle in the pain.

Trixie used a duplicate spell to create copies of herself to surround the Roboticized Masters. "Ha! You're not match for the Great and Powerful Mysterio! You must find the real me--" she paused at the sight of Sonic-Man running in a circle, removing each illusion before kneeing Trixie in the jaw.

"Found you." Sonic-Man quipped.

"Hey! Speed is my thing!" a rainbow blur sped past Sonic-Man, smacking him the face. Trixie and Twilight realized it was Rainbow Dash. "Seriously! What are you?"

"Rainbow!" Twilight exhaled, "Where are the others?"

"Pinkie, Rarity and Fluttershy are keeping an eye on the little ones and Ponyville. AJ and I decided to lend a hoof once Eris gave us a quick warning."

"Darn right." Applejack said, tying Sonic-Man in her rope. She didn't expect for Sonic-Man to curl into a ball and cut it apart, hitting her with a Spiked Homing Boost. The farmpony fell on her back and groaned in pain as a result.

Rainbow growled and tried to attack Sonic-Man again. She underestimated the robot's speed, seeing him swerve to the side and have her tail pulled. She yelped in surprise at the feeling of being thrown down suddenly. She looked at Sonic-Man towering over, "You're. Too. Slow." he mocked.

Trixie helped the pegasus up, "Yeesh. This guy has issues."

"Says the one calling herself great and powerful." Sonic-Man joked back at the unicorn.

"Why you--!"

"Wait..." Twilight paused, "Do you hear that?"

Then, a loud scream got Sonic-Man's attention. The ponies covered their ears at the loud sound. The robot felt himself getting pushed back by the sudden force of air going against him and did his best to keep himself grounded. Walking toward him was a blue pony with pink wings on her sides and fins on her cheeks.

Sonata frowned, "Don't. Hurt. My. Friends!" she screamed again, blasting Sonic-Man backwards. Twilight used her magic to catch the robot and slammed the robot back onto the ground facefirst.

The siren cringed. "Sorry, I'm late." she smiled sheepishly.

Twilight smiled, "It's alright, Sonata. We're just glad you're fine. We have to stop this robot from using this engine for some cause."

"Like I said." Sonic-Man muttered, "You can try to. But it's already too late to stop it."


The Wasteland...

'It feels like an eternity. Years since I found a purpose in my God-forsaken life. I've been wanderin' the world in hopes of redeemin' it from the monsters that ruined it in the first place. I thought I could make a change in the world. I've done things I regret, thought to lay low, but it cost me a friend and lost mt family. I ended the Red Skull's tyranny and now I wanted'ta make sure the world can become better.'

'But today... I may have to put those plans on hold.'

The old man looked to the sky, seeing a red beam aim at the clouds, as though a rift was opening. He removed his hat and revealed his white hair and sideburns. 'Now, my senses may not be what they used to. But I'm guessin' this ain't good.'

He ran forward and saw six bizarre creatures standing around an odd device. They all turned around, the old man surprised to see their pink eyes. They wore armor and they were coming for him. The man didn't know how to react.

"The hell are ya freaks supposed to be?"

"The Deadly Six. And your death, old man."

Once one of them, buff and red, threatened to lower their fist, the man jumped back with a surprising amount of speed for someone his age. He frowned. "Alright, bub. Now yer askin' fer it."

He extended his hands, revealing three claws protruding from his knuckles. "Now, ya wanna dance?" Logan taunted.

Before any of the six could respond, a ball of energy hit the red one, making him stagger backwards. Logan turned his head and saw two figures stepping out of the shadows.

"This is where we detected Sigma's presence last, X." the red stranger announced. "He's been keeping himself hidden for so long. It's a miracle we found him. And it looks like he already found some cronies."

The blue one, X, nodded, "Yeah. I'm not sure why he would come here though, Zero. In the meantime, it looks like we should take down these Mavericks. They are some strange Mavericks though."

"Now who the hell are ya?"

"Oh, my apologies. My name is X and he's Zero. We're chasing after a Maverick named Sigma. You don't mind some assistance do you?" X offered.

Logan shook his head, "Fine. Just don't get in my way."

Zero tilted his head, "Something about you looks familiar. I dunno, it might be the claws."

"Ain't ever met somethin' like you in my life. Now enough talkin' and more fightin'."
