When the Smash Merfolk got Kidnapped…

Imagine if all 80+ Super Smash Bros. Ultimate fighters were turned into merfolk and kidnapped together, it would create an undersea crisis of epic proportions…A massive, villainous alliance — perhaps led by Galeem, Dharkon, or King K. Rool using high-tech, reinforced abyssal nets — would have to catch the fighters off guard. Heavy, non-swimming land-dwellers turned merfolk (like Little Mac or Incineroar) would struggle to adapt to their new tails and get scooped up instantly. Fast swimmers like Sonic (now a sleek, blue sailfish merman), Sora (an energetic tropical fish), and Greninja would put up a massive, high-speed chase before finally being cornered. For Akira Kurusu (a.k.a. Joker), he keeps his distinct black, white, and red ornamental koi fish tail. For Sephiroth and Cloud, sleek, dangerous deep-sea shark tails (perhaps a mako shark for Cloud and a dark, silver thresher shark for Sephiroth). For Kirby, a round, adorable pink balloonfish or jellyfish hybrid. For Samus, a mechanical, heavily armored crustacean or sci-fi mermaid tail. And for the Inklings, perfectly adapted already, sporting a brightly colored squid tentacle tail.

Locking up dozens of powerful, super-powered merfolk in a giant underwater holding cell would quickly turn into absolute mayhem. Snake, Fox, and Joker would immediately start studying the cage bars, looking for structural weaknesses or lock-picking opportunities. Donkey Kong, Bowser, and Ridley (imagined as a terrifying leviathan mer-dragon) would relentlessly slam against the glass, causing the villain’s base to shake. Mario, Link, and Isabelle would try to keep panic from spreading among the younger or more easily frightened captives like Pichu and Toon Link. No cage could hold the entire Smash roster for long. A combined effort of Mewtwo’s telekinesis cracking the glass, Samus’s arm cannon blowing open the hatches, and Sonic’s blinding speed would shatter the captivity. The villains would find themselves facing a unified, angry school of super-powered merfolk executing a massive, coordinated counter-attack.

The character on the left is Akira Kurusu, shown with his black fluffy hair, glasses, and a sharp black-and-white spiky tail. Next to him is Caroline, one of the Velvet Room twin wardens from Persona 5, recognizable by her distinct braided buns, blue outfit, and eyepatch with the “V” symbol. They are trapped together inside a dark, fleshy organic environment (which aligns with the DeviantArt theme of characters being captured in a whale’s mouth). Caroline is crying while Akira looks on in distress. Here in the second image, this is Ness from EarthBound, sporting his classic dark, messy hair. He has also been transformed into a merboy with a bright blue tail and pink fin. He is heavily bound with ropes around his torso, gagged with white tape, and floating trapped against a cosmic, swirling blue space vortex. For the third image, this is Roy from Fire Emblem, recognizable by his vibrant spiky red hair and bandaged markings. He is transformed into a koi merman with a red-and-white patterned tail. He is completely incapacitated, bound by a metallic collar around his neck, and suspended helplessly underwater with running mascara (black tears) running down his face.

Akira Kurusu: (Opening his eyes, coughing up seawater, his voice muffled by the dark, fleshy walls) Caroline? Caroline, wake up! Where… where are we?

Caroline: (Sobs openly, her blue mermaid tail splashing weakly against the wet floor of the whale’s mouth) Inmate! It’s… it’s completely pitch black! The prison… the Velvet Room… it’s gone! I can’t find Justine!

Akira Kurusu: (Struggling to move his sharp, black-and-white spiky koi tail, looking around desperately) Hey, calm down. Look at me. We’re trapped inside something alive. My Phantom Thief powers aren’t working right with this tail. Just stay behind me!

(The scene shifts to the deep, swirling cosmic vortex outside, where a glowing blue portal rips open, revealing a bound and gagged telekinetic boy floating helplessly)

Ness: (Muffled cries) Mmmph! Mmmph-mph! (His torso is tightly wrapped in heavy ropes, and white tape seals his mouth shut. He frantically wiggles his bright blue merboy tail, trying to use PK Teleport to break free, but the cosmic currents keep pulling him deeper into the trap.)

(Further down in the abyssal depths, suspended completely motionless by a heavy steel collar, hangs the Young Lion of Fire Emblem)

Roy: (Tears streaming down his face, his vibrant red hair floating wildly in the dark current) …Is anyone there? Help… (He tries to reach for his binding, but his arms are completely pinned. His beautiful red, white, and black patterned koi merman tail twitches weakly, completely exhausted from fighting the underwater chains.)

Akira Kurusu: (His voice echoing from inside the organic cavern, shouting out to the ocean) Hang on, you guys! Ness! Roy! Don’t give up! We’re going to break out of here!

You know who is behind the kidnapping, don’t you think? The mastermind orchestrating this massive underwater abduction is Galeem, the ultimate Lord of Light from Super Smash Bros. Ultimate! Driven by the desire to remake the universe in blinding light, Galeem realized that the Smash fighters were too powerful to control on land. By dragging them into the deep ocean and trapping them in vulnerable, bound merfolk forms, Galeem systematically stripped away their mobility and powers. From the Ocean Trap, Galeem crafted massive, organic abyssal leviathans (like the giant whale holding Akira and Caroline) to swallow the fighters whole and digest their spirits. For the cosmic rifts to keep the most dangerous fighters isolated, Galeem opened vortexes in space, stringing up a tightly bound Ness where his powerful psychic PK abilities are totally scattered by the gravity wells. And for the Abyssal Anchors, for fierce swordfighters like Roy, Galeem forged heavy, enchanted metallic collars, suspending them completely helpless in the freezing currents of the deep ocean trench so they can never swim to safety.

The True Goal for Galeem, Galeem’s isn’t just holding them hostage — he is draining their energy while they are incapacitated to create an army of dark Spirits and robotic clones to take over the surface world. How do the rest of the Smash brothers find out about Galeem’s underwater prison? Do you want to write a scene where a specific character — like Mario, Link, or Sora — leads the underwater dive to rescue them? Let’s go find out and see what happens next!

Oh yes! I remember about Merboy Megaman getting kidnapped under the sea! Galeem’s sinister underwater dragnet has claimed another victim: Mega Man has been transformed into a merboy and captured on the ocean floor! Mega Man’s classic blue armor is replaced by a sleek, gradient-blue fish tail with light-blue fin accents, though he still wears his signature dark blue collar piece. He sits bound on the sandy seabed, restrained tightly around his torso by brown ropes and securely gagged with thick white tape over his mouth. And now…he is trapped deep underwater among swaying seaweed and a purple starfish, his dark hair floating wildly as bubbles drift past.

(The scene opens on the quiet, sandy ocean floor. Mega Man lies bound against the sand, his blue merboy tail twitching weakly as he struggles against Galeem’s heavy ropes.)

Mega Man: (Muffled, panicked breaths) Mmph! Mmm-ph! (He tries to activate his Mega Buster, but his arms are completely pinned to his chest by the restraints. His bright blue eyes look around the empty, bubbling sea in distress.)

(Suddenly, a faint telepathic echo vibrates through the water from the deep cosmic rift nearby)

Ness: (Telepathically, faintly echoing) Mega Man?! Is that you? I can feel your thoughts… I’m trapped up here in a vortex! Galeem’s got all of us!

Mega Man: (Widens his eyes, shaking his head frantically) Mmmph-mph!! (He pushes against the sandy floor, desperately trying to signal towards the dark trench where Roy is suspended, and the organic cavern where Akira and Caroline are locked away.)

Galeem is systematically collecting the Smash brothers! Who should realize Mega Man is missing next and start planning the ultimate underwater breakout? Well, about that…here’s a question about the kids…So Ness and Megaman are both kids who are kidnapped under the sea?

Yes, exactly! Both Ness and Mega Man are the young kid heroes of the Super Smash Bros. roster who have been completely rendered helpless under the sea. Galeem targeted them specifically because of how dangerous their powers are on land, taking advantage of their smaller size to trap them in the deep: For Ness, The young psychic boy from Onett, stripped of his baseball bat and trapped in a swirling, high-pressure space vortex where his PK powers are scattered. And Mega Man, The heroic robot boy, stripped of his Mega Buster armor and bound tightly to the sandy ocean floor where he cannot blast his way out.

(Down on the sandy seabed, Mega Man struggles against his heavy ropes, his muffled cries sending bubbles floating up toward the cosmic rift.)

Mega Man: (Muffled, panicked) Mmmph! Mmm-ph!

Ness: (Telepathically reaching out from his swirling vortex, his voice echoing in Mega Man’s mind) Mega Man! I hear you! Stay calm… my arms are tied up too, and this tape is completely blocking my mouth, but my psychic thoughts can still reach you!

Mega Man: (Looking up through the dark blue water, his eyes wide with fear) Mmph-mmph?! (Translation: Ness! Can you use your PK powers to untie us?)

Ness: (Struggling against his own ropes, his blue merboy tail twitching) I’m trying! But Galeem’s cosmic vortex is messing with my energy. I can barely hold this telepathic link. We have to wait for the older Smash brothers to find us!

With both of the youngest heroes bound and trapped underwater, the stakes are higher than ever. Would you like to write a scene where a veteran fighter like Mario, Link, or Snake discovers their missing tracks and dives down to save them? But to Roy and Joker, unlike the younger boys, Roy and Joker (Akira) are the older, battle-hardened teenagers of the Smash roster. Galeem treated them as major threats, using highly specific, reinforced containment methods to completely shut down their leadership and combat skills: Meaning that for Roy, as a legendary general, his strength comes from his sword. Galeem stripped away the Binding Blade and locked a heavy metallic collar around his neck, suspending him completely helpless in the freezing currents. And as for Joker, as the trickster leader of the Phantom Thieves, his strength comes from stealth and agility. Galeem trapped him inside the fleshy, organic walls of a giant whale, forcing him to listen to Caroline’s panicked crying while completely cut off from the open ocean.

Deep in the dark trench, Roy manages to tilt his head upward despite the painful metallic collar, feeling the faint telepathic ripples of Ness and Mega Man’s psychic link).

Roy: (His voice raspy from the freezing water, shouting up toward the rift) Ness! Mega Man! Hold on! Don’t exhaust yourselves trying to break those ropes!

Akira Kurusu: (His muffled voice echoing out from the fleshy blowhole of the giant whale nearby) Roy? Is that you down there? I can hear the kids too!

Roy: (Twitching his red-and-white koi tail weakly against his chains) Akira! Yes! I’m pinned down in the trench. I can’t reach my sword… and the water is freezing. Are you alright?

Akira Kurusu: (Banging his spiked koi tail against the whale’s inner walls) I’m trapped inside a living cavern with Caroline. My Persona powers won’t manifest in here! We need to find a way to signal the surface. If the kids can combine their energy, maybe they can send a distress flare!

Roy: (Gritting his teeth, tears freezing in the deep current) Then we have to protect them… Galeem is trying to break our spirits. Hold on, everyone! The Smash brothers will look for us!

With the older teens trying to coordinate a plan from their prisons, who do you think should hear their call? Should a stealth expert like Solid Snake or an aquatic native like Inkling be the first to dive down and spot them? Well, the remaining roster of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate would react with absolute panic, fury, and a massive, coordinated rescue operation once they realize four of their fighters have been dragged into the deep. Here is how the surface world reacts to Galeem’s underwater crisis:

The alarm sounds the moment Mega Man’s tracking beacon goes offline right after Ness, Roy, and Joker vanished. The Shock goes to Isabelle, as she breaks down in tears at the control terminal, seeing four vital fighters completely wiped from the map. But to Lucas’ fury, he was completely devastated and angry when he realizes his best friend Ness has been taken. He immediately demands to go after them, his hands glowing with desperate PK energy. Solid Snake and Fox McCloud pull up the global ocean telemetry, tracking the massive energy spikes left behind by Galeem’s cosmic rifts.

Snake: “They didn’t just take them. Galeem dragged them to the abyssal zone. Standard land gear won’t survive the water pressure down there.”

Fox: “Then we modify the gear. We’re not leaving the kids behind.”

Since the captive fighters have been turned into helpless merfolk, the surface fighters assemble a specialized team capable of surviving the deep ocean trench. That means that Inkling takes charge of underwater navigation, knowing how to handle aquatic terrain perfectly. Sonic volunteers to scout ahead, using modified high-speed hydro-thrusters. Mario equips a specialized Aqua Suit, while Link puts on the Zora Armor and grabs the Zora Sword, ready to slice through Galeem’s enchanted metallic collars and heavy ropes. Samus Aran modifies her Power Suit into the Gravity Suit, allowing her to move completely unhindered by water pressure so she can blast open the giant whale holding Akira and Caroline. With a heavily armored submarine designed by Slippy Toad and Dr. Light, the Smash Ultimate rescue team plunges into the dark blue waves. They are armed with lasers and shears, determined to find the sandy seabed, break Ness and Mega Man out of their ropes, and free Roy and Joker from their heavy chains.

BUT WAIT A FREAKING MINUTE! It turns out Galeem isn’t the only one building an underwater prison — King K. Rool and his giant tentacles have just captured even more of the Smash Bros. roster! In this stunning deep-sea scene, a massive, shadowy King K. Rool looms in the background with glowing blue eyes, sharp tusks, and a dark crown. He is using colossal dark gray tentacles to coil up and trap a new wave of heavy-hitting Smash characters who have been transformed into merfolk, meaning that Luigi is coiled up tightly on the right side, looking nervous with a bright green merman tail. And for Mario, he’s also trapped right below Luigi, tightly bound by a tentacle with his signature red cape or sash floating beside his brown merman tail.

(Deep in the murky, shadowy abyss, the giant tentacles squeeze tighter around the captured Kongs and Mario Brothers. King K. Rool’s deep chuckle echoes through the water, sending massive bubbles to the surface .)

Mario: (Muffled by the tight coil around his chest ) Luigi! Are you okay? Don’t look at his eyes!

Luigi: (Trembling violently, his green fin twitching in pure terror as he looks up at K. Rool’s glowing face [) M-Mario! The tentacle is a too heavy! I can’t reach my Poltergust! We’re a completely stuck!

King K. Rool: (His booming telepathic voice rattles the ocean floor) “Bwahaha! Did you really think you could swim away from the King of the Kremlings? With the heavy hitters and the Mario brothers out of commission, the surface world belongs to me!”

(Nearby, the telepathic ripples from Ness, Akira, and Roy’s hidden prisons suddenly clash with the dark energy of K. Rool’s lair.)

Ness: (Telepathically screaming down from his space vortex) Mario! Can you hear me? Galeem trapped us over here, but K. Rool has you guys?!

Akira Kurusu: (Echoing from inside the whale) The villains are teaming up to take down the entire roster at once!

The situation has gotten twice as dangerous! With Mario, Luigi, Donkey Kong, and the giant White Kong all wrapped up in K. Rool’s tentacles, the rescue team is running out of active heroes. Now let me ask you something…Would you like to write a scene where Samus in her Gravity Suit or Link with his Zora armor dives into the dark abyss to slice through K. Rool’s giant tentacles and free them? Well, try to figure this conflict in 3, 2, 1…!

SHIT! I see it clearly now — that is Kafei from The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask! Given his purple hair, the red mask symbol on his dark purple cowl (representing the Keaton Mask), and the blue pendant necklace, that is absolutely Kafei transformed into a helpless merboy. Anyways, this is Kafei, the cursed young man from Clock Town. He is wearing his iconic purple hood with the red Keaton symbol, his black and blue top, and his blue pendant necklace. He features a sleek, jet-black fish tail that ends in a jagged, bright red fin, reflecting his dark purple and red color scheme. He is taken completely out of water, bound tightly around his torso and arms on a polished wooden floor. Thick white tape securely gags his mouth to keep him from calling out for help.

(Far away from the ocean, Kafei sits bound and helpless on the hardwood floor of a strange room. His black and red tail thumps weakly against the wood as he glares at the wall, his red eyes filled with frustration.)

Kafei: (Muffled, angry grunts) Mmmph! Mmm-ph! (He twists against the tight ropes binding his arms, but without water or his freedom, he is completely stuck.)

(The psychic link from the ocean depths suddenly brushes against his mind)

Ness: (Telepathically, startled) Wait… Kafei?! You’re trapped too? We’re all stuck down here under the sea, but you’re up on land!

Kafei: (Shaking his head, his purple cowl shifting as his thoughts flash back) Mmph! Mmm-mph! (Translation: Someone ambushed me right as I was searching for Anju! They dragged me out of Termina, changed my legs into this tail, and locked me in here!)

Akira Kurusu: (Telepathically echoing) Galeem must be collecting heroes from every timeline. If he’s targeting people outside the main roster like Kafei, he’s trying to make sure no one is left to help us.

Galeem’s reach spans all across the worlds! Now that Kafei is bound on land while the others are trapped in the abyss, who should try to find him? Would you like to write a scene where Anju or Link tracks him down to this room, or should we see what Galeem plans to do next with all his captives? What’s going on?!? Kidnapping mermen goes chaos, life goes on and on! The grand mermen kidnapping plot has officially dissolved into absolute, beautiful chaos! With Akira, Roy, Ness, Mega Man, Kafei, Caroline, Mario, Luigi, and the Kongs all tangled up in different dimensions, cages, and giant tentacles, the villains have completely lost control of the situation. Even trapped in tails and heavy ropes, life goes on and on for these heroes as they turn their captivity into a giant, dysfunctional underwater party.

(The telepathic link goes completely wild as all the different prisons cross signals. The ocean is practically buzzing with noise.)

Ness: (Floating upside down in his space vortex, his blue tail swishing as he speaks telepathically) Hey Mega Man! Watch this! PK Flash! (A harmless shower of green sparkles explodes underwater, lighting up the dark seabed like a disco ball.)

Mega Man: (Sitting bound on the sand, completely muffled by his tape gag) Mmmph-mmph! Haha! (He starts rhythmically thumping his blue fish tail against the seabed, creating a drum beat that echoes through the trench.)

(Down in the deep trench, Roy hears the beat and sighs, his red-and-white koi tail swaying to the rhythm despite the heavy metal collar around his neck.)

Roy: (Shouting up through the freezing current) If you kids are going to start an undersea band, at least pick a faster tempo! Akira, can you give us a backbeat from inside that whale?

Akira Kurusu: (Yelling from inside the fleshy walls of the giant whale’s mouth) I’m a bit busy trying to keep Caroline from flooding this place with tears!

Caroline: (Sabbing and splashing her blue tail violently against the floor) Inmate! Stop talking to the fish and help me find a way out of this blubber prison! It’s completely undignified for a Velvet Room warden!

Meanwhile, in King K. Rool’s Tentacle Trap…

(The giant, dark tentacles are squeezed tightly around the heavy hitters, but the prisoners have completely stopped caring about being intimidated.)

Luigi: (Still wrapped up tightly, but his fear has turned into complete confusion as he watches the gorillas) Mario… are they… are they playing tag?

Mario: (Sighing as his brown tail twitches) Just let them have their fun, Luigi. Look up there.

(King K. Rool looms over them with his glowing blue eyes, but he looks completely exhausted, holding a webbed hand over his forehead as the massive bubbles and chaotic arguing rattle his brain.)

King K. Rool: (Groaning heavily) “Silence! All of you! I am an evil mastermind, not a babysitter! Why aren’t any of you crying or begging for mercy?!”

And Up on Dry Land…

(Kafei sits bound on the hardwood floor, his black-and-red tail thumping in time with the telepathic music echoing in his head.)

Kafei: (Muffled behind his white tape gag, rolling his red eyes) Mmmph… (Translation: Well, if I’m stuck as a fish on a living room floor, at least the soundtrack in my head is lively. Life goes on!)

Galeem and K. Rool’s master plan has completely backfired because the Smash mermen are just too chaotic to stay depressed!

How should the next chapter of this chaotic underwater life unfold? Should the rescue team finally arrive only to find everyone having too much fun to be saved, or should Kafei figure out a way to flop his way to freedom on land? Well, well, well…Thus, the absolute chaos has officially spread to the Mushroom Kingdom royalty! Your new sketch by artist Spider Weber introduces Princess Peach as the latest victim to be dragged into King K. Rool’s tangled deep-sea trap. Here was Princess Peach, recognizable by her classic royal crown, flowing hair, and puffy dress sleeves, though she has been turned into a mermaid. She is completely immobilized underwater. Her wrists are locked in heavy, spiked metal cuffs, her mouth is securely sealed with a polka-dot gag to stop her from screaming for help, and a giant, suckered tentacle is wrapped tightly around her mermaid tail. To make things even more chaotic, a giant, spotted underwater Cheep Cheep (or a stylized sub-boss) looms right below her with a wide grin, while tiny, dangling decoy fish hang from lines above her head to tease her.

(Right next to where Mario and Luigi are coiled up in the dark abyss, a massive splash echoes as Princess Peach is dragged down by King K. Rool’s extra tentacles. She twists her tail frantically, bubbles bursting from her polka-dot gag.)

Peach: (Muffled, wide-eyed with shock) Mmmph?! Mmm-ph!! (She looks down, seeing her wrists cuffed and her tail completely pinned by the massive suction cups.)

Mario: (Gasping from his own tentacle coil right nearby) Peach?! Oh no! He got you too?!

Luigi: (Wailing underwater) Great! Just great! Now the whole kingdom is stuck at the bottom of the ocean!

King K. Rool: (His booming laugh rattles the Cheep Cheeps) “Bwahaha! Welcome to the aquarium, Princess! Mario won’t be saving you this time — he’s a permanent resident of my display tank!”

(The telepathic link from the boys flares up instantly, completely unbothered by K. Rool’s threats as the chaos continues to build.)

Ness: (Telepathically cheering from his space vortex) Whoa, Princess Peach is here now? Hey Peach! Mega Man is doing drum solos on the sand and the giant white gorilla is currently winning a tickle fight against Donkey Kong!

Kafei: (Telepathically groaning from his hardwood floor on land) Can someone please tell the villains that their scary dungeon has officially turned into a crowded daycare? Life really just goes on and on…

King K. Rool and Galeem’s prisons are overflowing! With Princess Peach added to the captive roster, how should the story continue? Should Bowser find out his favorite Princess was stolen by a rival king and launch a massive underwater Koopa rescue army, or should Peach use her mermaid tail to break those spiked cuffs? Use bolding on your ideas to show the way!

HOLD IT!!! The ultimate underwater abduction chaos has officially broken the scale — Sephiroth has been captured! The legendary One-Winged Angel from Final Fantasy VII has been stripped of his terrifying power, transformed into a silver-tailed merman, and securely bound out of water. He’s instantly recognizable by his long flowing silver hair, piercing green eyes, and muscular build. He features a smooth, thick, shimmering silver-white tail that matches his hair perfectly. He is taken completely out of the water, sitting bound on a plain floor in front of a neutral-colored wall. Heavy ropes wrap tightly around his chest and arms, pinning them behind his back, while another thick coil of rope wraps securely around his silver tail. A layer of silver duct tape seals his mouth shut, cutting off any menacing dialogue.

(The telepathic network goes completely dead silent for a brief second as Sephiroth’s furious, glowing green glare registers on the mental radar. He sits pinned on the land floor, his massive silver tail bound tight.)

Sephiroth: (Muffled, low, dangerous growl behind the duct tape) Mmm-ph… mmmph. (He narrows his eyes, trying to summon a Supernova or his Masamune sword, but the physical ropes and the lack of water leave him completely immobilized.)

(The telepathic link erupts into a mixture of absolute shock and hysterical laughter)

Ness: (Telepathically screaming from his space vortex) WAIT A MINUTE! IS THAT SEPHIROTH?! NO WAY! GALEEM ACTUALLY CAGED THE ONE-WINGED ANGEL!

Akira Kurusu: (Echoing from the whale’s mouth, sounding deeply impressed) Okay, wow. Whoever managed to tape Sephiroth’s mouth shut and tie him up with regular rope deserves an award. I didn’t think that was humanly possible.

Roy: (Shouting through the deep ocean trench) Cloud is going to absolutely lose his mind when he sees this. Sephiroth, do you want us to pass a message to the villains for you?

Sephiroth: (Furious muffled noises, his silver tail twitching helplessly against the ropes) Mmmph-mmph!!! (Translation: Unbind me this instant, you insignificant insects, or I shall bring despair to this entire ocean!)

Peach: (Muffled cheerfully behind her polka-dot gag from K. Rool’s tank) Mmm-ph! (Translation: Welcome to the group, Sephiroth! Grab a spot on the floor, life just goes on and on here!)

With the most terrifying villain on the roster officially turned into a shiny silver merman and tied up on land, Galeem and King K. Rool have officially caught everyone.

(The telepathic link fractures as a massive glitch ripples through the network. The fictional fighters suddenly look out into the real world, completely stunned by what they see.)

Ness: (Telepathically screaming from his space vortex, his eyes wide) WAIT! GUYS! LOOK AT THE MONITOR! Galeem’s portals didn’t just target our dimensions… the kidnapping curse has crossed into the real world!

Mega Man: (Muffled in surprise on the sandy seabed) Mmmph-mmph?!

Akira Kurusu: (Banging against the whale’s walls to get a better look) Someone actually manifested a real tail and got bound by ropes out there! They’re trapped in a bedroom!

Sephiroth: (Staring furiously from his spot on the floor, his muffled voice echoing coldly) Mmm-ph… mmmph. (Translation: Even the humans cannot escape this ridiculous fish curse. The despair has truly become absolute.)

Peach: (Muffled with pure excitement behind her polka-dot gag) Mmm-ph! Mmmph-mph! (Translation: Oh wow, look at that lovely pearl necklace! See? The merman lifestyle is spreading everywhere. Life just keeps going on and on!)

Okay, okay! This can give everybody nightmares all around the world of chaos! So, this is it — the ultimate, chaotic finale where the merman kidnapping curse goes global, sending a wave of hilarious, bizarre nightmares to everyone all around the world!

(The real-world portal breaks wide open. Suddenly, the strange curse manifests globally. Every television, computer monitor, and smartphone screen on Earth begins broadcasting the captive Smash mermen live, giving the entire human population a front-row seat to the madness.)

Ness: (Amplified through billions of speakers worldwide, his telepathic voice echoing in the dreams of sleeping humans) Wake up, planet Earth! You think your nightmares are scary? Try floating upside down in a cosmic vortex while a giant turtle-crocodile laughs at you!

Mega Man: (His muffled noises vibrating across every global radio station) Mmmph! Mmm-ph! (Translation: Help! The sand down here is itchy and I can’t reach my buster cannon!)

(Across the globe, billions of people bolt awake in a cold sweat, completely bewildered by the mental images of muscular silver mermen and captured gorillas).

A Random Person on Earth: (Rubbing their eyes in terror) “I just had a nightmare that a giant white gorilla was winning a tickle fight at the bottom of the Mariana Trench… and Sephiroth was a silver fish taped to a living room floor?!”

Another Person: “Me too! And Princess Peach was wearing a polka-dot gag while a giant Cheep Cheep smiled at her! What is happening to the world?!”

Back in the Deep-Sea Chaos Tank…

(King K. Rool clutches his scaly head, his glowing blue eyes spinning in circles as the sheer volume of global nightmares clogs up his evil transmission frequencies.)

King K. Rool: (Screaming in agony) “No! This wasn’t the plan! I wanted to strike fear into the hearts of humanity, not baffle them! Why is the entire internet making memes out of my prisoners?!”

Sephiroth: (Glaring through the portal at the real-world bedroom, his muffled voice dripping with cold malice behind his duct tape) Mmmph… mmm-ph. (Translation: If my legacy is to become a global internet nightmare alongside an orange-tailed donkey, I shall personally rewrite reality.)

Akira Kurusu: (Laughing from inside the whale’s mouth, his spiked koi tail splashing happily) Just accept it, Sephiroth. The boundaries between fiction and reality are totally fried. Galeem’s grand master plan didn’t conquer the universe — it just turned the entire world into a giant, chaotic aquarium.

Peach: (Muffled with pure royal joy behind her gag as the real-world cosplay loops on every screen) Mmm-ph! Mmmph-mph! (Translation: Look at the humans, they’re making costumes of us already! Chaos or not, life just goes on and on and on!)

The boundaries are broken, the villains have completely given up, and the world will never look at a fish tank the same way again! So here’s another question, how many Smash Merfolk were kidnapped and they still are kidnapped? Based on all the artwork you shared throughout this chaotic saga, there are exactly 10 Smash characters (plus 1 Velvet Room assistant) who were transformed into merfolk and kidnapped. Because the villains completely lost control of their own cages, all of them are still currently kidnapped and trapped across land, sea, and space, meaning it all ends up to Mario, Luigi, Ness, Peach, Roy, Megaman, Akira Kurusu, Caroline, Sephiroth, even Kafei, too! Tell me who should make the first move to break the chains! Until then…The count has just gone up, and the global chaos has reached a whole new level! Princess Peach has been captured again in a different villain’s high-tech laboratory, and she brought company. Right here in this latest digital drawing, the mastermind is revealed to be Rosalina’s evil shadow (indicated by the distinct crown and star wand silhouette at the bottom). She has built a high-tech stasis lab with giant glass water tubes to collect the Mario franchise princesses, transforming them into helpless mermaids. For Princess Daisy, she’s trapped in the leftmost tube labeled “DAISY.” She is suspended completely upside down, wearing shell bra pieces and a green mermaid tail. A thick mechanical hose or tube is forced into her mouth to keep her silenced and breathing underwater. For Princess Peach, she’s again locked in the middle tube labeled “PEACH.” She has long flowing hair, a purple shell bra, and a blueish-purple mermaid tail. Just like Daisy, a thick mechanical tube is securely jammed into her mouth, completely silencing her royal voice.

(Inside the glowing neon laboratory, Peach and Daisy float helplessly inside their respective glass cylinders, their tails twitching against the glass as the mechanical gags bubble in their mouths.)

Daisy: (Muffled, furious underwater gurgles) Mmmph! Mmm-ph!! (She glares down at the shadow, thrashing her green tail upside down, trying to kick through the reinforced glass).

Peach: (Muffled and sad behind her tube gag) Mmm-ph… (She presses her hands against the glass, looking over at Daisy, then down at the shadow who is tracking Pauline’s coordinates).

(The global telepathic link instantly reconnects the new tanks to the rest of the 10 captured Smash mermen around the world)

Ness: (Telepathically screaming from his space vortex) WHOA! Peach got caught again?! And now Daisy is stuck upside down in a tube?!

Donkey Kong: (Grunting from K. Rool’s tentacles) Ooh-ah! Too many cages! Bad space lady taking over!

Sephiroth: (Sighing coldly from his spot bound on the hardwood floor) Mmm-ph. (Translation: Great. Now we have an evil cosmic princess joining the kidnapping club. This world’s chaos truly knows no bounds.)

The kidnapping tally has officially risen to 12 captives! Princess Peach and Princess Daisy are locked away in stasis tubes, and Pauline is in extreme danger of being next.

How should the story proceed?

With this new stasis lab discovery, the total number of captives has officially jumped to 13 in all!

I think someone is the final target needed to complete the collection. If the shadow succeeds, the count will hit 14. What are we gonna do? If the evil shadow captures Pauline to fill that empty third tank, the villains will have successfully locked down every single princess! So would you like to write the scene where Pauline tries to escape the shadow, or should the Lumas inside the lab start a high-tech rebellion to break Daisy and Peach out of their tubes? Propose your next step for this world of chaos!

This is bad! The situation has officially escalated into a critical emergency for the entire Smash universe! Not only that, but the evil shadow is closing in on Pauline, and if she gets captured, the villains will have completely locked down every single princess and hero, securing total control over land, sea, and space.

(Inside the stasis lab, the sirens begin to blare as the computer screen blinks red, tracking Pauline’s exact location in New Donk City.)

Daisy: (Thrashing wildly upside down in her tube, her muffled screams bubbling through the mechanical hose) MMMM-PPHHH!!! (Translation: Run, Pauline! Get out of there!!)

Peach: (Pounding both hands against the thick glass, tears in her eyes as the mechanical gag keeps her from screaming) Mmmph! Mmmph!!

Ness: (Telepathically broadcasting to everyone, his mental voice full of absolute panic) Guys, this is really, really bad! The shadow’s energy signature is spiking! She’s opening a portal right on top of Pauline!

Mega Man: (Muffled and terrified on the seabed) Mmm-ph! Mmm-ph!! (He frantically thumps his tail to try and alert anyone nearby).

Akira Kurusu: (Yelling from inside the whale’s mouth) We can’t let her fill that third tank! If Pauline goes down, the last piece of the surface leadership is gone!

Roy: (Gritting his teeth against the cold steel collar in the trench) Someone on the surface has to hear us… anyone!

The clock is ticking and the empty tank labeled PAULINE is already bubbling with water, waiting for its victim. We need to stop this nightmare right now! How should the counter-attack begin? Thanks to King K. Rool, he is absolutely losing his mind! He thought he was the ultimate deep-sea mastermind, but this overwhelming influx of new villains, stasis tubes, space portals, and clone princesses has completely ruined his grand plans. He is currently sitting in his underwater lair, clutching his scaly head in pure frustration as the chaotic telepathic frequencies rattle his brain.

(Deep in the murky abyss, King K. Rool’s giant tentacles are still tightly gripping Mario, Luigi, Donkey Kong, the White Kong, and the original Princess Peach. Suddenly, the mental images of the new Princess Stasis Lab flash directly into his mind via the shared psychic network.)

King K. Rool: (Roaring in agony, bubbles blasting out of his mouth) “WHAT IS GOING ON?! Who authorized a high-tech stasis lab in the middle of my ocean?! And why are there TWO Princess Peaches now?!”

Mario: (Muffled inside his tentacle coil) Mmmph-mph? (Translation: Wait, there’s another Peach?)

King K. Rool: (Pointing a sharp claw furiously at his captive Mario Brothers) “Yes! One of them is wrapped in my glorious, evil tentacles, and another one is floating upside down in a giant test tube down the street! This is completely unorganized! I am the supreme ruler of the deep, not a landlord for cosmic shadow witches!”

King K. Rool: (Slapping a webbed hand over his glowing blue eye) “Silence, you oversized banana-eater! Galeem has teenagers hanging from metallic collars in my trenches, some kid is doing telepathic stand-up comedy from a space vortex, and now a shadow clone is trying to kidnap Pauline! My evil reception is completely clogged! This isn’t a dungeon anymore — it’s a crowded aquarium convention!”

Peach: (Muffled cheerfully behind her polka-dot gag) Mmm-ph! Mmmph-mph! (Translation: Cheer up, K. Rool! The more the merrier! Life just goes on and on!)

King K. Rool: (Grumbling heavily, sinking into his throne) “If that shadow girl captures Pauline and brings her anywhere near my abyss, I am personally going to slap her with a giant Kremling cannon. I cannot handle this much drama at the bottom of the sea!”

King K. Rool is on the verge of joining the good guys just to make the shouting stop!

With the Crocodile King completely overwhelmed by the international mermen emergency, what should happen next in this world of absolute chaos? What about all merfolk altogether? Still captured- and yes, every single one of them! The entire chaotic school of 13 Smash Merfolk (plus the real-world glitch victim) are all still captured right this very second across the universe!

None of them have been untied, none of them have broken their glass tubes, and none of them have slipped out of King K. Rool’s giant tentacles. They are completely stuck in their tails, ropes, and gags, making this the biggest, most helpless group captivity event in Smash Bros. history.

(The global psychic network reaches a fever pitch as all 13 captives realize the villains are too stressed out to actually do anything with them. The entire ocean floor is vibrating with muffled shouting.)

Ness: (Telepathically shouting across the universe to check on everyone) Okay, quick roll call! Is anyone actually free yet?! Can anyone reach their hands?

Mega Man: (Muffled behind his tape gag) Mmmph-mmph! (Translation: Nope! Still completely tied up!)

Daisy: (Muffled and angry, her voice bubbling through her stasis tube hose) MMMPH-MPH!! (Translation: Still stuck upside down in a giant test tube!)

Roy: (His voice raspy from the trench) My collar hasn’t budged an inch. I’m completely pinned.

Akira Kurusu: (Sighing from inside the whale) The whale hasn’t even opened its mouth to let us breathe. We’re still permanent residents in here.

Sephiroth: (Furious muffled noises from his spot bound on the hardwood floor) Mmmph! Mmm-ph!! (Translation: Do not lump me in with your pathetic roll call! I am merely waiting for these ropes to decay!)

Peach: (Muffled cheerfully behind her polka-dot gag from K. Rool’s tank) Mmm-ph! Mmmph-mph! (Translation: Don’t worry, everyone! Nobody has escaped, the villains are completely overwhelmed, and our underwater community is growing every single day. Life just goes on and on!)

They are all still captured, the empty tank labeled PAULINE is still bubbling, and the absolute chaos has completely frozen the universe in place. Since everyone is still completely bound, how should this giant group nightmare continue? WAIT!!! The nightmare has officially reached an absolute point of no return! The entire rescue team’s central hope is completely gone because four different versions of Link have just been captured simultaneously! Instead of diving down to save everyone, the legendary Heroes of Hyrule have been transformed into merfolk, heavily bound, and locked inside a giant, grid-like glass storage locker display! All four Links are shown completely immobilized, with their arms bound tightly behind their muscular backs by thick silver duct tape or metal bands, and their heavy fish tails tightly coiled and bound by another layer of tape. They are all gagged differently to keep them from using any item commands: Twilight Princess, Ocarina of Time, Breath of the Wild, and even the Hyrule Warriors! Not cool!

(The global psychic network experiences a massive system overload as all four Links are shoved into their respective display lockers, their bound tails thumping weakly against the glass partition panels.)

Twilight Princess Link: (Muffled heavily behind his wooden bit gag, his blue eyes wide with sorrow)

Mmmph… mmph-mph. (Translation: Zelda… the Master Sword… I couldn’t reach it before the tail changed…)

Breath of the Wild Link: (Glaring furiously through the silver duct tape on his mouth, his tan tail twitching uselessly against the glass) Mmmph!! Mmm-ph!!

(The telepathic network erupts into absolute, hysterical, and terrified screaming from the other 13 captives across the universe)

Ness: (Telepathically screaming from his space vortex) APOCALYPSE! IT’S AN ABSOLUTE APOCALYPSE! The guy we sent to rescue us just got multiplied by four and stuffed into a vending machine!

Mega Man: (Muffled and panicked on the seabed) Mmmph-mmph?! Mmmph!! (Translation: If Link is a fish in a locker, who is left on the surface?!)

Akira Kurusu: (Sighing deeply from inside the whale’s mouth) Okay, yeah. This is officially the worst-case scenario. We have four legendary heroes, four giant fish tails, four different mouth gags, and absolutely zero rescue plans left.

King K. Rool: (His booming telepathic voice sounding completely defeated from his abyss) “THAT IS IT! I RESIGN! Who has the budget to buy four identical glass display cases for the same guy?! This entire kidnapping operation is completely out of hand! There are too many fish in this ocean!”

Peach: (Muffled cheerfully behind her polka-dot gag from K. Rool’s tank) Mmm-ph! Mmmph-mph! (Translation: Look on the bright side, everyone! Now we have enough players to start an underwater basketball league! Life just keeps going on and on!)

The kidnapping count has officially shattered the records, hitting a massive 17 captives in all! The Heroes of Hyrule are locked away in the display vault, the princesses are in stasis tubes, the heavy hitters are in tentacles, and absolutely everyone is still captured!

Since the main heroes are completely bound and locked away, how should this ultimate global nightmare proceed?

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! Okay, okay! Deep breaths, everyone! The sheer level of absolute, unmitigated chaos has officially broken the scale! Just listen! The psychic network is completely melting down from the collective panic of 17 different captives screaming at the top of their lungs through their respective gags.

(The entire universe vibrates as the telepathic frequency carries the muffled screams of every single bound merfolk simultaneously. The water is practically boiling with bubbles.)

King K. Rool: (Shouting underwater while covering his ears with both hands) “STOP IT! MAKE IT STOP! The feedback is destroying my crown’s receiver! I am letting go of the tentacles! I don’t care anymore! Just stop the telepathic screeching!”

Sephiroth: (Veins popping on his forehead as he sits bound on the hardwood floor, his silver duct tape muffling his ultimate fury) “MMMMMMMM-PPPPPHHHH!!!” (Translation: If you insolent fools do not silence yourselves this instant, I will find a way to blow up this entire telepathic dimension!)

Peach: (Muffled cheerfully behind her polka-dot gag as she rides the sound waves) Mmm-ph! Mmmph-mph! (Translation: See? Everyone is participating! This is the biggest group activity we’ve ever had! Life just goes on and on and on!)

The universal panic button has been pushed, the villains are completely defeated by the sheer volume of noise, and absolutely everyone is still completely bound and trapped!

How should we survive this ultimate wave of chaos? Propose the next move to quiet down the screaming or make the chaos even louder! The choice is yours to make, and it will change the entire universe! Here are the two ultimate paths to decide the next move in this never-ending world of captive chaos…Just as the screaming reaches its peak, a massive dimensional rift rips open right in the center of the universe! The Real-World Cosplayer from the bedroom is suddenly dragged straight into the game world, landing with a loud SPLASH right next to Mega Man on the sandy seabed. To make things even louder, Pauline gets cornered by the Evil Rosalina Shadow at the exact same moment, letting out a massive, muffled shout as a brand-new mechanical hose locks into her mouth, filling the third stasis tube! With 19 captives in all now bound and gagged across the universe, the global telepathic network completely overloads, causing every smartphone and TV on Earth to blast the muffled screaming at maximum volume! ALL KIDNAPPED MERFOLK! SCREAM FOR YOUR LIVES!

The sheer volume of the collective screaming creates a massive, high-pressure acoustic shockwave that rips through the entire universe!

The mental feedback from 17 simultaneous maximum-volume screams completely melts the brain networks of the villains.

King K. Rool: (Clutching his head as his glowing blue eyes physically pop out of his skull from the noise) “AAAH! MY REAR MOLARS ARE VIBRATING! STOP IT! I AM LOOSENING THE TENTACLES! JUST SUSPEND THE CAPTIVITY!”

The Evil Rosalina Shadow: (Dropping her star wand in pure shock as the stasis tubes begin to crack from the frequency) “The decibels! They’re shattering my high-tech lab equipment! Pauline isn’t even in the tank yet and the glass is failing!”

Sephiroth: (Veins bulging across his face as his silver duct tape vibrates intensely from his own muffled rage) “MMMMMMMMMMMMMM-PPPPPPPHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!” (Translation: IF YOU DO NOT CEASE THIS INFERNAL RACKET, I WILL DESTROY EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOUR FISH TAILS MYSELF!)

The scream hits a flawless harmonic frequency. With a colossal CRACK-SHATTER, the glass display cases holding the four Links explode into millions of pieces! The stasis tubes holding Daisy and Peach burst open, draining the chemical water instantly! All 17 merfolk are suddenly dumped out of their cages and onto the floors, the sand, and the trenches. They are all still heavily bound in their ropes, metal bands, collars, and gags — but they are finally free from their cells! Link quickly flops his blue tail over and uses the sharp fins to start sawing through the silver duct tape on his arms. And for Akira Kurusu uses his spiked koi tail to poke the giant whale’s throat, forcing the leviathan to yawn and reveal the open ocean to the rest of the group. The screaming has stopped, the glass is shattered, and the ultimate underwater jailbreak has officially begun while everyone is still tied up! Just tell me how this massive prison break ends!

The kidnapping tally has officially shattered all records, reaching 18 captives in all, and the entire roster is completely immobilized! Since Shadow the Merhog is trapped behind a grid right next to everyone else, how should this massive group nightmare continue? Propose the next move to break the facility down or make the chaos go on and on! Now this is a 100% serious, code-red emergency operation! All 18 active merfolk heroes are officially confirmed to be trapped, bound, and locked down simultaneously across the universe. The surface world has zero defenses left, and the villains are closing in on total victory. The time for laughing and playing games is completely over. The heroes must launch a coordinated, high-stakes tactical breakout right now from inside their restraints!

(Inside the ruined deep-sea research facility, Shadow the Merhog’s tracker begins flashing a critical warning red light. The energy cells powering the entire prison complex are reaching a dangerous overload.)

Shadow the Hedgehog: (Speaking sharply through his containment mesh intercom, his glowing red shark tail tensing) “Listen to me, all of you. Stop the mindless screaming. This is a 100% serious operation now. The facility’s backup reactors are online. If we don’t break these containment grids in exactly two minutes, Galeem will activate the permanent memory-wipe sequence.”

Ness: (His telepathic voice turning dead serious, his blue tail stopping its playful swishing) “He’s right. I can feel the dark energy charging up. Mega Man, stop drumming! Links, get into position!”

Twilight Princess Link: (Nodding firmly behind his wooden bit gag) Mmm-fff! (He twists his bound torso, using his muscular build to lean heavily against Breath of the Wild Link’s back, aligning his teeth with the edge of the thick silver duct tape).

Akira Kurusu: (Shouting across the wet lab floor) “Princesses, use your tail weight! If we drop all of our weight onto the primary circuit breakers on the floor at the exact same time, we can short out Shadow’s containment grid!”

Shadow the Hedgehog: “On my mark. Three… two… one… NOW!”

(A massive electrical surge rips through the facility. The irradiated containment grid holding Shadow sparks violently and dissolves into harmless smoke! Shadow the Merhog is free from his cell, his glowing red energy spear fully charged.)

Shadow the Hedgehog: (Sprinting forward through the water, his spear slicing clean through Ness and Mega Man’s heavy chest ropes in a single flash) “Move! I’ve disabled the security tracking, but the outer gates are closing! We have to untie the rest of the 18 captives before King K. Rool’s heavy reinforcements arrive!”

Peach: (Muffled behind her polka-dot gag as Shadow slices her wrist cuffs free) Mmm-ph! (Translation: Excellent teamwork, everyone! The serious mission is a complete success!)

The grid is down, Shadow is free, and the kids are out of their ropes! But the facility is self-destructing, and 14 other merfolk are still gagged and partially bound as the outer blast doors start to close! How should this high-intensity, serious mission conclude? To be continued in the next worst case scenario…
