Earth-65...

Spider-Gwen dodged a lunge from Mecha Sonic, leaning her body to the side of the robot's fists and hopping. She stretched a hand, aiming a web-line directly on his foot. The White Widow grunted, pulling back as hard as she could to redirect Mecha's course. She turned her arms and flung him back into the whole he made.

"Got anything to say, you heap of metal?" Gwen taunted, dusting her hands off in a boastful manner. "So, what's your game? Why were you in Equestria?"

Mecha Sonic flew out, "That does not concern you." he said, landing a punch on Spider-Woman's face. Gwen's head reeled back in pain, feeling the force of the jab. She clenched the side of her cranium, which rang in agony for her.

"D-Damn it..." gasped Gwen.

The robot lowered his head, "A pathetic sight. It is a shame I must eliminate you. You have put up a better fight than Spider-Man." he admitted. "But in the end, it doesn't matter for you."

'No!' thought Spider-Woman, staggering to her feet, 'Not after all the crap I've dealt with!' she stepped forward. 'This guy had the balls to hurt Pete, Twi and possibly anyone else in Equestria... I'm gonna make sure he regrets doing that!'

Gwen ran forward, seeing Mecha Sonic shoot missiles at her. The White Widow slid underneath one, used her webbing to catch it in midair and toss it into a second, causing a small explosion from collision. She then webbed the third missile and tossed it back at the robot, who raised his arms to block it.

While Mecha focused on the missile, he wasn't aware of Gwen's presence and she uppercutted the robot, shooting a line of webbing on his foot and using it to throw him on the ground as hard as she could. This created a small crater on the concrete street and she watched as Mecha Sonic got right back up.

"...Can anything keep you down?!" groaned Spider-Gwen, raising her hands as she lunged a fist at the robot, who grabbed it. The Spider-Woman growled, backflip-kicking herself off the robot before shooting a web-ball at the robot and driving an elbow in his direction. She held her limb while the robot slid back.

"No." Mecha Sonic answered bluntly, changing his arm to that of a minigun. Bullets began to pop out of the barrel and Spider-Gwen's Spider-Sense began to tingle. She jumped in the air and ran on the walls of the buildings, dodging the storm of bullets coming for her. The White Widow hopped off the wall and kicked Mecha Sonic in the head, causing him to stop.

Spider-Woman held her knees as she panted, "Did... that... do... anything? Please tell me it did."

She saw Mecha Sonic lunge at her, prompting her to swerve her body backwards. "Never mind..."


The Wasteland...

Logan grunted, holding back Zavok as much as he could. He was surprised by how durable the armor protecting them was. It even refused to budge at X and Zero's attacks. "The hell? Just what are these freaks supposed to be?"

Zero gritted his teeth, "Our scans show that they're organic with enhanced armor. But there's only one person we know that can have such a technological advantage over us."

"Sigma." X realized.

"That's right. He sent these things to distract us and place whatever the device is." Zero swung down his Z-Saber. "I'll go disable it while you and Logan fight off these... things." he dashed to the right using his Z-Buster to hit Zavok with a charged shot, making him stagger backwards in confusion.

X saluted his partner, "Right." he scowled, he aimed his X-Buster at Zeena and Zazz and released his own powerful charged shot, knocking the two on their backs.

Logan growled, driving his claws into Zommom before spinning around slashing Zik in the face. "The hell? Ya got regeneration too?" he asked, uppercutting the blue Zeti, knocking him into the air before giving Zor a right hook as he charged forward. The Deadly Six were silent and continued to charge after the heroes.

Mega Man X turned his head, using Fire Wave to stun Zazz, who was ready to throw a giant sphere at them. "What is that supposed to be?" he asked.

"Don't care! How are ya holdin' over there, Blondie?" Logan asked Zero, who was kneeling next to the machine.

Zero slammed his fists on the device, "Crap! I have no idea how this thing works! It's like it was built in another world! The technology is too different than what we're used too! And we don't have the time to mess with what works, it could be a risk."

"Well, here, takin' risks is how ya survive!" the old mutant hissed, headbutting Zeena and kicking Zavok. Zavok responded by holding hid arms down. "Get off me!" Logan yelled, trying to move and shake his arms free.

X dashed to Zavok and used a Homing Torpedo to distract Zavok as well as Zor. "Are you alright, sir?" the original Reploid asked, offering Logan a hand. The former X-Man swiped it away.

"I'm fine. Name's Logan by the way." he replied, dusting off his jeans and leather jacket, "Any of ya two have any clue as to what these things are or what this is? Or why yer here for that matter."

X nodded, "We were searching for a Maverick known as Sigma and detected his energy in this world. Unfortunately, it looks like whatever these are came instead and planted that strange device. If only we knew where it came from or why we found Sigma's energy signature in this dimension."

Logan sighed, "Well, they messed with the wrong world." he hissed, kneeing Zommom back slightly, his armor absorbing the blow, the yellow Zeti grunted as a result.

Zero grunted, "Damn it! What is this thing!?"

At that moment, the red beam of light got bigger and opened the clouds in a large swirl. Logan and X both watched as the entire planet seemed to shake. "What is going on?" asked Mega Man X, doing his best to remain standing.

Zavok raised a hand and the Deadly Six teleported out of sight thanks to Starlight Glimmer and Sigma, their mission done.

"Looks like the Deadly Six got away..." Logan noticed, unable to see the Zeti anywhere. He sniffed the air to double check, "Yep. It's like they vanished. When I got my hands on 'em..." he paused, "Now what the hell happened?"

The Maverick Hunters and Mutant watched as a rift opened up in front of them. Once it opened, they saw an empty street where a woman in a white hoodie and mask was fighting a blue spiked robot. "Huh... Didn't see that coming." Zero admitted, revealing his Z-Saber once again now ready for a fight.

"Hold on, Zero. We have to see what the situation is." X eased his partner.

Spider-Gwen turned her head, seeing the three in the desert. "Um... Okay... Are you guys gonna help or are you trying to kill me too?!" she questioned aloud, flipping over another one of Mecha Sonic's homing missiles.

Logan didn't have to say anything. He jumped forward, driving his adamantium claws into Mecha Sonic, messing with his wiring. "So, bub. What's yer game? Ya with the Deadly Six?"

"Ha! So you're from the world Sigma was interested in! Pathetic old man, you cannot dare to stand a chance against me, Mecha Sonic!" Mecha Sonic boasted, driving his knee into Logan's face. The mutant hissed in pain, feeling the pain subside for only a moment. X and Zero dashed forward and charged after the robot with Spider-Woman, who helped Logan stand.

"Easy, old timer." Gwen stated, "This guy's no joke." she glared at the upgraded robotic rival of Sonic, who chuckled.

"You mentioned Sigma's involved! What's his game?" X wondered, seeing Zero slash down his Z-Saber, to no effect.

"I cannot say." Mecha stated firmly, "You are both lucky he wants to destroy you both himself. Otherwise I would crush you like the inferior scraps you are!"

"Says the poorly-built porcupine robot!" Zero snarled, aiming his Z-Buster at Mecha Sonic, who suddenly vanished.

"Sunova..." muttered Logan, closing his eyes in annoyance. He faced Spider-Woman. "Alright, dame. Who are ya?"

"Dame?" Gwen repeated, "Nevermind. I'm Spider-Woman... It looks like there's a lot more happening than I thought."

'Spider...Woman?' Logan thought, 'At least it ain't Barton's daughter. But then that means this is a parallel world 'ta mine. I'll worry about that part later.'

"You're right." agreed X, "Oh, I'm X and he's Zero. We're looking for the one behind this: Sigma. We didn't think that he'd bring together more than one world. We're just as clueless on this situation, I'll admit." he rubbed his helmet sheepishly.

At that moment, they felt the ground shake again, seeing another rift open up. This time, they saw a green-clad human and a dinosaur battling a robot that looked like X if he were smaller and evil. "Okay... Now I have no idea what's happening." Gwen sighed.


Equestria...

Sonata screamed again, pushing back Sonic-Man farther and forcing him to keep his arms up. Rainbow Dash and Twilight took turns striking the Roboticized Master and the pegasus flew downward, driving her hooves upward so that the robot could be launched in the air, allowing Twilight to strike him with a bolt of magic.

Sonic-Man shook for a second, sparks seen coming out of his metal body for a moment. The Roboticized Master chuckled darkly, "It doesn't matter now what happens. The Unity Engine has already been activated and the others are a beacon. Pretty soon your worlds will merge and be destroyed."

"What?!" Sonata yelled. "What is he talking about? Y-You can stop it, right Eris?"

Eris growled, "My apologies! I can only delay it. But the rifts are already opening!"

Applejack bucked Sonic-Man in the torso as she panted, "This darn thing is tougher than Sloan's goons."

Sonata nodded, "I wish I knew what you were talking about."

Rainbow Dash growled, jabbing Sonic-Man, who countered with a punch of his own. Luckily, Twilight caut the pegasus with a spell, saving her from being tossed and repayed the robot hedgehog with a beam from her horn. "Trust me... You do not want to know." thr alicorn insisted to the siren.

Trixie groaned, "Wonderful! How are we supposed to stop a crazed robot?"

"Target Aquired."

It was then, a fist struck Sonic-Man. When the blue robot got his bearings, he saw another robot, one with white metal and a black spider emblem on his chest. "P-Peter?" Twilight gasped, unable to believe that was her husband now.

"My programming dictates I must destroy the other Roboticized Masters!" Mecha-Spider yelled.

Sonic-Man nodded, "Funny, me too."

"Wait!"

A yellow two-tailed fox ran through the rift, panting as he held his knees, "Where did Mecha-Spider go?" his eyes went wide at what was happening.

"Um... Hello there." Trixie awkwardly waved.

"He must be an inhabitant of a parallel world!" Eris revealed, doing all she can to close the breaches, to no avail.

Tails cleared his throat, "Um... Where am I?"

A red echidna ran forward next to a black hedgehog. "This is quite the surprise." the hedgehog admitted with a huff. "Ponies... As if Faker wasn't enough to deal with."

"And who the hay are you?" Rainbow grunted.

"Shadow the Hedgehog. The Ultimate Life-Form." introduced Shadow.

"Well, somepony thinks highly of himself." muttered Trixie.

The red figure pointed ahead, "Hey! Isn't that Sonic?!"

"You mean Sonic-Man?" Twilight asked.

"Sonic?!" a pinke hedgehog shoved the echidna and fox out of the way to see Sonic-Man and Mecha-Spider fighting with their weapons, the former with a Spring Shot and the latter a Web-Missile. "Who is he fighting? My Sonic better win!"

"That's my husband. Now, do any of you have any idea what's happening and why you're here? Who are all of you anyway?" Twilight questioned in slight annoyance.

The fox sighed, "I'm Tails."

"Name's Knuckles the Echidna."

"Amy Rose."

"Espio." said a purple chameleon revealing himself from the shadows, surprising the ponies.

"Woah! A ninja!" Sonata gasped in amazement.

Espio nodded, "We fought the Mecha-Spider to stop what he called a Unity Engine. It seems that wasn't the only one placed nor was it just our world. And from the looks of it, our friend Sonic vanished to this dimension and became a robot."

"Has anyone vanished from this world?" Tails asked.

"Uh, yeah." Twilight answered, "My husband, Peter Parker. But it looks like he's there fighting your friend. I'm Twilight Sparkle by the way. I just wish we stopped crossing with other worlds in dire circumstances."

"Sonic." Knuckles grunted. "We only know one person who can turn others into robots."

Shadow agreed, "The Doctor. He must be involved in this somehow."

Tails put a finger on his chin, "I wouldn't put it past Eggman to do this. But the personality is new. He's definitely not alone. Whoever this Sigma is that Mecha-Spider mentioned, he must've done something to catch our friends."

"But it looks like Pete's doin' the work for us." Rainbow chuckled, "He can kick Sonic's butt! That's what he gets for calling me slow!"

"Now's not the time for a show of ego, pegasus." Shadow rolled his eyes.

"Look who's talkin', Ultimate Life Form." Rainbow grumbled.

"Targets aquired." two more robotic voices said out of nowhere.

"Now what is it?" Applejack whispered.

A fireball and pellet shot hit Sonic-Man and Mecha-Spider, making them stop their duel. Standing across from them were M'Egga Man and Mecha Mario.

"Mario?" Tails wondered aloud.

"You know one of them?" Twilight asked.

"What else can go wrong?" Knuckles, Rainbow and Sonata yelled at the same time.

"Oh no." said a tall blue robot that stepped into their world, "It's worse than I thought..."

"Ugh. I need an aspirin..." Trixie groaned,

Meanwhile, the female draconequess extended her hands outward, them glowing. "It seems that is all of the rifts open." Eris whispered to herself in slight relief, "I can only halt the worlds from merging further." she put all her effort into her magic to stop the merging of worlds.

The four Roboticized Masters stared each other down, ready to fulfill their final program and objective: which Eggman, Bowser and Wily added as their failsafe.

Destroy each other.
