What has happened to the Nintendo Realms?

Everything I could have possibly wanted. Finally, I have complete unadulterated power in my Hands, and the Realms are close to being mine, and when they are, they will be consumed by the depths of Subspace forever.

I supposed I have @motheratfacetroid and @dsatfacetroid to thank for my rebirth. After years of Master Hand and Crazy Hand domineering the Realms as if the so-called Guardians were their puppets, the overlords of supremacy within the Realms had gotten sick of the Hands' antics and decided to take the reins for themselves. They sieged Final Destination, laid waste to both of the Hands, and incidentally destroyed the Monolith Crystal within the heart of their fortress. That infernal crystal had kept me bound ever since my last conquest ended in failure, all because I foolishly believed I could rely on those same puppets to fulfill my vision... but their inadequacy was the chink in my plot. But with the crystal obliterated, I felt my strength regaining like never before. All those plans, all those dreams, all those vendettas I swore to enact were finally tangible once more, and I finally took vengeance on them: the Guardians, the Hands... All of them.

With the pathetic pantheon of the Realms weakened by Mother Brain, I enslaved both Master Hand and Crazy Hand to my Chains of Light once more, I began my conquest across the Realms with an army of Primids at my side. I started at the precious beacon of innocence and hope for the Realms... Mushroom Kingdom, and in the middle of Princess Peach's 30th Birthday Party, I succeeded in the unthinkable: I killed Mario. I smote him with my amber-blood dagger, trapping his soul inside to fuel my strength. Not even the purest of Green 1UP Mushrooms could save him. The retaliation that came thereafter was violent as I slew Rosalina, the Alpha Yoshi, Wario, Donkey Kong. A select few like the cowardices Luigi, Waluigi, and Princess Daisy managed to escape my blade... but it didn't matter. After I executed Princess Peach, I took her crown, the Relic of Super Mario Galaxy, and crushed the crown in my hands. With the Realm destabilized, I could permanently shroud it in darkness. The left over R.O.B.s I had helped set up a Subspace Bomb, which detonated in the center of Mushroom Kingdom.

It bores me to go over all the little details that followed afterwards, but my conquest only became tedious after that. The crumbling of Super Mario Galaxy sent a rippling warning to the other Realms of my arrival, which only made me move up my timeline instead of relishing every moment of their demise. The next to fall was Hyrule, as I slew the virtuous Zelda and that traitor Ganondorf, using the power of the Hands to extract the Triforce of Power and Wisdom from their souls and into my hands. In the center of Hyrule Castle I detonated another Subspace Bomb, one so powerful it consumed the entire Realm. Only Link and his despicable Master Sword—the Sword that Seals the Darkness—remains as that hero fights in the shadows. But even he cannot survive the depths of Subspace for long. As my shadow bugs hunted down the Ancient Guardians of Hyrule and consumed them, they became my new agents. It won't be long now until the Triforce of Courage, the third and final piece, is mine.

The same story occurred with the Lylax System, Ivalice, Angel Land, and various alternates of a planet known as Earth. I admit, the power I faced when I came to most of these Realms was significant, but once their Guardian and their Relic was crushed, they bent to my will. There are a select few Realms that still evade my submission... the Realm of Pokémon and the Realm of Archanea and Valentia, to name a couple. But the most difficult I had faced after that was Dreamland. It is quite difficult to imagine that such a small, seemingly adorable, pink puff ball could cause so much damage. Kirby was my greatest threat yet... the power of the Star Rod enabled him abilities that could free the Hands. But once I captured his friends and smote Meta Knight and King Dedede, and took the demon's soul, Kirby was without allies any longer. Kirby escaped on a Warp Star, but with him no longer in Dreamland, that gave me the leverage I needed to consume Dreamland in eternal darkness, erupting the largest of Subspace Bombs in the center of Planet Popstar.

The grand conquest has been tiresome, but the consumption of the Realms, devouring the souls of the Guardians, and vanquishing the power of the Relics now leaves me eager to satiate my thirst for total control. I have decided to save the Metroid Realm for last, in gratitude for the inadvertent service of Mother Brain and Dark Samus of releasing me from my bonds. But when I am certain Kirby and Link are destroyed, then and only then will I begin my dominance of the last of the Realms.

And then all will fall under me.

All will fall under Tabuu.

*As Katie walks to the window after leaving the Armory, she notices something.*

That's strange... the darkness of outer space has turned... purple. And the stars, are cyan? Is this normal in your universe?

[tabuuatfacetroid]

I’m flattered, but there is only enough room in this kingdom for one ruler. And only I sit on that throne.

*Tabuu reappears with a smug smirk on his face.*

Begone.

*He casts his hand as three Greaps form in front of Mother Brain. They rush to her claws on the ground and stab their massive axe-like arms into them, hoping to keep her pinned down. At that instance, two more Gamygas pop out from the ground, blasting the sole eye of Mother Brain perpetually with red plasma blasts that sound like conga drums.*

[motheratfacetroid]

*Final Destination was now Subspace. Mother Brain's hulking form stood just beyond the dread gates of the fortress, awaiting to be greeted. Ominous shades rose and the screams of Subspace's ghosts screeched their response.*

Mother Brain: I do not come as a conqueror of this realm. But I will not turn down such an invitation.

*The banshees' scream caused Mother's form to quiver. She retaliated with a phazon beam shot without warning from an extended digit, the claw shimmering blue. Somehow the attack was completely absorbed by the creature, prompting Mother to claw them all at once with a single, swift swipe.*

Mother Brain: My godhood is no falsehood. Cease this mockery and let us discuss the nature of our pantheon.

*Mother's eloquent words belied her nature, her teeth dribbling with a foul, oily swill, akin to saliva for a being that did not need it. Her eye was bloodshot, her focus still strained from assuming direct control of the denizens of Tourian.*

[tabuuatfacetroid]

*The figure watches from under his cloak as the Metroid Prime dodges the Dark Cannon’s fire. He charges up the cannon again, but before firing, he quickly teleports from one of the floating pieces of Final Destination to a further one, firing another succession of three-shots at Dark Samus’ deified form.*

[tabuuatfacetroid]

*The voice of Tabuu resonates throughout the Subspace.*

Not by you, false god.

*The blasts of lasers from the Gamygas continuously, seemingly regenerating their energy from the power of Tabuu. But from underneath Mother Brain, a dark presence rises up from below as five Floows appear around her. All in unison, like terrifying and horrific banshees, they release a screech of phantom energy into the biomechanical monster, energy which penetrates through matter and body.*

[dsatfacetroid]

*Metroid Prime remains motionless even as lasers start to strike her shell, given that they bounce off, flying in other directions. As one primid starts to get too close, she reaches forward with one of her claws and snaps the creature in half, causing it to disintegrate into more shadow bugs. She takes a step back, once again siphoning the life out of any creatures within proximity, though after a minute, she lets out an annoyed series of clicking sounds.*

This isn’t enough... I need-

*Something catches her attention, and she strafes to one side, barely dodging a black laser that flies past her. She looks toward the direction from which the laser came, emitting a low, ominous growl. Ignoring the other creatures around her, she begins to creep toward the source of the laser, the two appendages on her back glowing blue with phazon before morphing, growing longer and more complex. She starts to speed up, and the appendages on her back start to form massive wings. Finally, as the phazon glow dies down, these new wings twitch slightly, unfolding into pointed, insectoid wings glowing phazon blue. Two soon split into four, and these wings all begin to vibrate, creating a deep buzzing sound as the whole form of Metroid Prime begins to lift off of the ground.

Soon enough, she starts careening toward the source of the laser even though she cannot see who is there, and she once again lets out a resonant roar.*

[tabuuatfacetroid]

*The lifeless Primids suddenly dissolve into more Shadow Bugs as the reborn Subspace Army reforms. Towers that look like tall, living totem poles sprout from the base of the castle, aiming their beams of lasers at the massive Metroid Prime. Some of them even form into other familiar creatures, like large Bullet Bills and a super massive R.O.B., which approaches the Metroid Prime, ready to swing its massive hooks.*

*But the Subspace Army knows better, and knows their resources are limited, which is why another mysterious figure stands behind a platform hidden behind a destroyed remnant of Final Destination. In his hand, a Dark Cannon.*

*He targets the Metroid Prime, aiming for the core, and the Dark Cannon begins to charge.*
