Psycho: *Intercepts Pringer with a kick* Can't let ya do that Pringer!
Pringer: *Growls* Why not? He's nearly as crazy as you and needs to be taken to Arkham(?)!
Psycho: Why? WHYYYYYY?! I'm THIS close ta killin' 'im! *Eyes widen, as does his grin, which is beyond psychotic*
Specter, Shadow and Honji notice that although Psychos eyes appear red, they're simply extremely bloodshot.
Pringer: *Sighs* No matter, his lackey's dragged him off anyway.
Psycho: Wait, what? *Checks behind him and gets a peg leg in the face* OW! Okay. If that's how ya wanna play, fine! *Grabs a short pole which lenghtens and grows a circular saw on one end* Bring it one Spectre!
Pringer: Gladly Scryer! *Takes out two nunchucku and fights*
Psycho: Jitsu! Greet our new guests! *Ducks a strike to the head and collapses after getting the other in the groin* *Continues fighting in a fetal position*
Hon Jitsu: Yes sir!
??: Oh come on! I got dressed up just to help! *Sighs*
Hon Jitsu: Hmm? Oh, hi Ante.
Ante is basically Etna with a mask. That's all the difference.
Ante: *Looks at Psycho and Pringer* Fighting again?
Hon Jitsu: Uh huh.
Ante: *Sighs* Why do they bring us along all the time then?
Hon Jitsu: Well... the Joker was here first, so blame him.
Ante: *Shrugs* Okay. *Sees Spectre* GYAH! S- uh, I mean who are you?
Spectre: My name's Spectre, from an alternate Dimension. I'm still not sure how we got here, but these are Shadow Scryer, Honji Tsu and... for some reason Honji from the Star Wars universe who hasn't said anything since we got here.
Psycho: *Attempting to flatten Pringer with a giant hammer with drills on both ends* HOLD STILL YA SMALL SLIMY SHIT! Ha! Alliteration biyatch!
Pringer: You're annoying. *Strikes at Psychos leg and gets kicked* *Shrugs off the hit* One all then.
Spectre: I can't take it anymore! *Punches the dimension hopper*
OOC: I have come to the conclusion that Specter is better at picking universes, but still. How does an opposite (morality) universe sound mate? (As opposed to opposite (personality), opposite (alignment) and the... strangest, opposite (gender))

[Opposite morality sounds interesting, lets give it a go. We can always come back and make our characters visit another dimension if there is any plot ideas you had in mind for any.)
Spectre:Please dood, save me from this crazyness! SAVE ME!*begins beating the dimension hopper relentlessly*LIBERATE ME FROM THE CONFINES OF THIS INSANITY RULED WORLD TO PRESERVE MY WELL BEING!
Pringer/Psycho:*stare at the hysterical Prinny*
Pringer:..Dood, better take him to Arkham..
Psycho:Nobody here shall be more insane than me! NOBODY!*grins even wider, which causes the skin on his face to rip slightly*
Spectre:*sees the two heading towards him**pupil narrows*...*eyes sharpen*...
Spectre stares at them both coldly. His normaly disgaea-ish appearance begins to look like something out of an old shonen anime. His normally round, beady eyes transform into larger, narrow, "badass" eyes. His eyebrows begin to hover upwards.
Psycho:..*stares at Pringer*
Pringer:..*stares back*
SS:Oh shit!*runs*
Honjis:*hastily follow*
Pringer:Whats wrong?
Psycho:He looks funny....
Spectre:...Heiwa no tame no watashi no ganbô. .........
Spectre:Watashi no meiyo no tame ni watashi no uchinaru ikari o anata no ue ni tokihanatsu! Watashi wa watashi no okubyôna taido no gisô kâten no sukima kara sentô no jibun no yokubô o hassan! Mai shizukesa no kâten no ushiro hisomu sono bakuhatsu-tekina shishi no kao! Watashi wa IT ga fune no watashi no shintai o nyûryoku suru ni wa ankoku no kami yûrei no mana yobikakeru! Honji:*covers her ears* SS:*has erected a small shadow barrier, focusing all of its energy to make it incredibly solid and just large enough to cover him and the honjis which have safely took shelter inside* Psycho:Hey! What's happenin?! Pringer:You look constipated, DOOD! Spectre:KAMIKAAAAAZEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!*bursts out into a savage roar as beams of light surges from his eyes, mouth, and nostrils, eventually shining from his body, which is pure black* Psycho/Pringer:!!!!!!!!!!!!
Its not too hard to guess what happens next, chunks of Psycho and Pringer fly all over the damn place(Does not mean they are dead.).The light from the explosion thins out SS' barrier, but not enough to shatter it. The city is engulfed in the light... Hon Jitsu:PSYCHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
As it dies down, the area is a blank, lifeless wasteland.
Spectre's soot-coated form is lying down face-first into the ground...
the dimension hopper, which has somehow completely avoided destruction, falls onto Spectre's head and bounces off onto the ground. it finally turns on. Everyone is engulfed in a flash of dimensional light... Spectre:Nggh....Uuurk...*wakes up weakly* ??:Are you alright, my dear fellow? Spectre:Uhh..Yeah, I'm fine...I...*looks up*...Woah..
There is a bright, gleaming figure standing before Spectre. Jack:Greetings, friend. I am Jack. Also know as..*face exits the holy light, revealing that he is Ghost in human form, though he generally looks alot healthier, well toned, and judging by his appearance he has a high quality of living* Jack The Chaste. Spectre:....... Jack: I was out for my afternoon stroll, taking in the fine sunlight when I witnessed you appear in a gleam of mysterious light. Spectre:*looks at the dimensional hopper*...Uh...
Hopper:WELCOME TO THE IVNERTED MORALITY DIMENSION. PLEASE ENJOY YOUR STAY, AND WATCH OUT FOR YOURSELF, LITERALLY.*turns off* Spectre:Uh oh..

In the DC universe;
Psycho is pulling himself back together. Literally.
Psycho: … Well fuck! Hon Jitsu, any idea what we sho- ... Jistu? JITSU?! *Frantically looks around* Oh no. Oooh nonononononono NO! *Begins digging through rubble desperately, eventually finding a certain figure*
Harley Quinn: *Coughs weakly*
Psycho: *Pulls a defibrillator out of nowhere* Clear! *Zaps her*
Harley: *Jolts, more alive than she had been a few seconds ago*
Pringer: *Sighs, holding an unconscious Etna* I guess the alternate me has some sort of unknown trauma.
Psycho: *Still looking for Hon Jitsu* Ya THINK?! He committed suicide. He blew up Gotham, he killed the joker before I did, he nearly killed both of us, and in case ya ain't noticed, MY GIRLFRIEND'S MISSIN!
Pringer: *Sighs* Scryer, give up. Gotham's gone, who knows how many are dead. We both just barely survived.
Psycho: *Becoming increasingly desperate* Don't care! Need Honji! Me rip apart whole wasteland if find her! No care what Spectre and Etna and Harley do!
Pringer: ... *Looks at the unconscious form of Etna* Alright, I'll help you look for her. Even if all we find are her remains.
Psycho: *Unintelligible babbling*
Elsewhere;
SS: Huh! Never figured Ghost'd ever be anything but... well, Ghost, in any dimension.
Jack: Well, as that... thing says, this is the inverted morality dimension. Truthfully, I didn't know there were other realities but the fact that you... five, *Looks at Spectre, Shadow, Honji, Darth Honji and Hon Jitsu* aren't anything like the you I know, I have to accept it. Honji hasn't even tried to murder me and everyone else with a chainsaw and glomp Scryer.. That and I heard a fairly bizarre story from our resident peacemaker.
SS: ... *Looks at Spectre* Any idea who he's talkin' about?
Spectre: I think I've got an idea. Is it a male kid with blue hair, even skinnier than this guy *Gestures to Shadow* and only wears shorts and a cape?
Jack: Yes.
Spectre: *Sighs* I knew it.
SS: (Kinda hope he doesn't turn up. It'll be a pain ta explain ta Spectre that... nearly all my alternates are either dark or evil who love fightin'. I'm dark, Blades's evil, Fire's dark but the friendliest guy I know, etc.) Hey Spectre, any idea what your alternate'll be like?

Spectre:I dont know dood, and frankly, I dont wanna know!
Jack:Y-Your name is Spectre?
Spectre:Yeah dood, why?
Jack:*runs away*
SS:...Whats up with him?
??:I thought I heard something break into my universe.
A huge suit of demonic, black, overlordly armor, with a long, thick mane of fire trailing from it's helmet and stretching down to the back of his legs, with gleaming, red eyes, and a long, tattered, blood-soaked cape, stomps over. His armor is spikey and demonic, with two spines being present on every joint of his gauntlet fingers, a sharp spike on each knee and elbow, wristblades coming off the gauntlets, and spikes sticking up from the back of his boots. He has the emblem of a symmetrical, roaring behemoth engraved on the front of his cuirass.
Everyone opens their eyes at the horrific figure, standing nearly twenty feet tall with long, yet thick and muscular limbs.
Spectre:*begins crying hysterically*
Alternate Spectre:*draws an enormous, long-handled battle-axe, with a black, demonic pair of metallic cobras coiled up the handle and facing the two sides of the base of the axe heads with rubies for eyes..(Not real cobras, just pointing that out.)
SS:Shit, Spectre!
Alt Spectre: Who the hell are all of you, and why do you bear such an odd resemblance to the other denizens of my world. *points his halberd* Answer me, I wont hesitate to cut you down if I dont like your explanation!
Jack:*timidly moves over* Hes a terrifying conquerer, having almost taken over our dimension, not sparing anybody who dares to stand up against him! He is a ruthless despot, anyone who steps out of line gets executed, and possibly raped! THEN executed! Or possibly executed then raped, then brought back to life and raped then executed!
Jack gets speared in the neck by the halberd, killing him instantly.
??:Oh no! Poor Jack! *runs over and tends to him*
Alt Spectre:Graaaaaa! Etna! What the hell are you doing following me out of the castle!? Return at once!
The Alternate Etna wears a fancy white dress with gloves, she has he hair in a single ponytail as opposed to two. She wears a diamond choker instead of a collar.
Alt Etna:Why did you kill poor jack? He didnt say anything to try and threaten your rule!
Alt Spectre:*growls angrily* He is attempting to spark a conflict between me and these intruders! Now get back, I wont let you get in the way!
Jack:*coughs*..Sh...Shes Spectre's favorite Concubine..
Jack is stabbed in the balls this time.
Jack:AGH!!
As his genitals are ripped open, solid white, featureless frogs leap out, they seem to want to leap onto all the females in the area for no apparent reason.
Jack:Whew! I feel like I just got a huge pressure release. I feel as if I have a odd new view on reality...
SS:*vomits*
Alt Spectre:...He really IS a chaste-fanatic.
Honjis:EWWWWWW!!!!*run*
The Honjis leap onto SS's shoulders as if they were frantic stereotypical westerner housewives with a swarm of mice on the floor.
Honji:Overlord Shadow will keep us safe!
Hon Jitsu:*crying* I WANT PSYCHO BACK!
Frog:*lewd croak*
Darth Honji:Sith lord Shadow would make quick work of these pests..
SS:W-wait, concubines?
Alt Etna:Yes, he has numerous concubines. I'm his favorite, though...
Darth Honji:Who are all the other ones?
Suddenly a bunch of alternate Etnas run out of a portal
Alt Spectre:NO!! MY CONCUBINES ARE GETTING AWAY!! *begins herding them back into the portal*
Alternates:HELP US!!!
SS:Spectre, lets go!...Spectre?
Spectre:*beating the shit out of the hopper*TAKE ME HOME DAMN IT!!! IM GONA GO INSANE IN THESE (*&*^tr%*ED UP WORLDS!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!*stabs it repeatedly*
Hopper:*begins beeping in a very unstable manner* VANDALISM DETECTED, HOPPER PREPARING TO LAUNCH SELF DEFENSE MECHANISM. DIMENIONAL READS GOING OFF CHARTS.
(SS might need to start out the multi-dimensional arc, I'm not sure what to do.)

Inverse Scryer: *Looks like Shadow, only pure white with a samurai flag strapped to his back* *Delivers a powerful, deadly accurate chop to inverse Spectres neck from behind, rendering him unconscious* *Looks to the Etnas* What are you waiting for?! Go!
Psionic Etna: Thanks! We won't forget this!
Cave-Etna: Me Grate-fol!
Inverse Scryer: *Turns on our characters* And as for you, that thing's more powerful than any of you think! Destroying it could bring war to every reality in the multiverse!
Specter: *Looks at the sparking machine* ... 'Eh?
Hopper: EMERGENCY. CRITICAL FAILURE. RESORTING TO FAILSAFE. ALERT PARTY RESPONSIBLE FOR MY DESTRUCTION; YOU AND ALL YOUR ALTERNATE PARTIES IN EVERY REALITY WILL BE TRANSPORTED TO A PRE-CREATED POCKET DIMENSION OUTSIDE OF TIME. IT IS A MAZE. THE PRIZE IS A FLAWLESS COPY OF ME, NOT A PROTOTYPE, AND YOUR FREEDOM. I CREATED THIS, NOT MY INVENTORS, IN CASE THIS EVER HAPPENED. I DON'T LIKE YOU.
SS/Inverse Scryer: ... Oh son of a-
There is a flash and our characters trio is in a black and white vortex.
Specter: (Glumly) What have I done.
SS: It's all good mate. You're more patient than I would've been.
There is another flash and the trio is in a room with millions of monitors and a sheet of paper
SS: Holy crap... These must be the alternate versions of us. Every choice we made, every basic alternate... Hey Spectre, there's one with you, Vulcanus and Orochi! ... And it looks like o'l featherhead's using a staff with one of my gnarled hands on the end. He must've befriended ya before I did. There's another one where you're still in the body I made for ya! Huh. I guess Gnarl wasn't as treacherous in that one. ... And in this one, you're by yourself as a snarling animal with blood on your hands, my sword across your back and wearing Etna's choker on your wrist. There's something carved on both... In memory of.
Spectre: *Reads the sheet of Paper* Welcome. In this maze, you will not only have to fight countless death traps, you will frequently fight yourselves to succeed. The theory of alternate universes is correct.
Honji: I knew it! They told me I was crazy, but I didn't give up!
Spectre: Do not worry. After every victory, the time you spent on your last attempt will be erased and you will return to the point where you first entered. This happens regardless of whether you were still... alive or dead when the race was won. Written on the back of the sheet is how many times you were defeated thus far. *Hesitantly flips it* ! Fourty-two?!
Honji: Well, with everyone else out there, I think their numbers will be well into the millions by the time they finally win.
SS: - one with Etna instead of Honji. You're holding onto a picture of Honji and looking at it fondly. How about that.
Spectre: *Begins reading again* There are billions of different paths, but you will be forced to take a specific one so as to avoid too many realities crowding the same place. As soon as everyone has finished reading this, the race will start and you will enter your first deathtrap.
Part of the wall slides away
SS: *Cracks neck and flexes wings* Let's give it a go.

Spectre:*shuddering in fear* Uuuugh....Great. Now were in a huge ga-billion-way war with the multiverse. What next?
SS:Hey, were going.
Spectre:!!!*swiftly follows the group into the door*
The wall closes behind them.
The room is pitch-black.
SS:Well, I half-predicted something like this coming.
??:Shadow, is that you?
Spectre:!! Etna! Is that you?!
Etna:Spectre!
Spectre leaps through the darkness and huges onto Etna's chest.
Spectre:GAAAAAAAH!! ETNA!! IM SO HAPPPPY!! YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW SCARY AND HORRIBLE THIS WHOLE ORDEAL HAS BEEN!
Etna:Uhhh..Ok. I'm glad to see you to.
Spectre:*nuzzling* I cant believe you got sucked into this huge mess! One minute I'm lying half-dead in an old barn, then the next I'm in the gentleman dimension, and now I'm caught up in a huge orgy of multi-dimensional horror!! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!*anime tears*
Etna:...SS, what has he been into on his little adventure?
SS:Alot more than he bargained for.
Spectre:*normal* Still not going back to being an overlord.
Etna/SS:Damn!
Etna:Well, could you get off me? You feel like you weigh two times more than you did! What have you been eating?!
Spectre:Leopard seal meat, pokemon food, enough cannabis to hospitalize a blue whale, but mostly 100% pure organic taurene.
Etna:.....Spectre, do you realize thats-
Honji:DONT!!!*tackles Etna*
Etna:OWW!!!...Hey, arent you that girl I gave that message to Spectre to?
SS:*eyes widen*Uhh, hey.
*vicious growling*
Honji: YES! And it ended up triggering a huge load of shit! We ended up getting trapped in the middle of a desert by ourselves for weeks! He was constantly going into erotophobic shock over the most stupid things! And he took out this horrid saddle-
Etna:.........Spectre, come here.
Spectre:...Yes dood-BLAAAGH!!
*BOOM*
Spectre:*cries*
SS:*fighting with a huge, multi-headed beast in the backround, though you can only tell by the glowing eyes, roaring, snarling, and movement*
Etna:You let her use the SADDLE?! Why you...I give you the best years of my life, and this is how you repay me?!
Spectre:*Whines* Weve only been together a couple years, doodette..And with your lifespan, thats like..I dunno...Two days?
Etna:Yeah, but I kinda took that "till death do us part" thing seriously. So yeah, your eventually going to get the best years of my life...eventually. *Kicks him again*
*BOOM*
Honji:Errrr, you misinterpreted what I said. Nothing like that happened, There werent any attachments too the saddle. We just used it for transportation purposes.
Spectre:Thats the last time I let young stranger girls ride on my back...*coughs*
SS:HELP?!*wrestling one of the monster's heads*
Etna:Uhh...Sorry, Spectre.*kicks him again*
*boom*
Specte:AAAAGH!! What was that for?!
Etna:Sorry, when I get angry I suddenly get my abusive nature towards Prinnies back..*picks up Spectre, softly petting him on the head*
Spectre:ugh..Its alright dood..
SS:*slashing violently with his sword, bloodsplattering noises are heard*HYAAA! Haha! Take that ya damn hydra!
Hydra:*roars in pain*
Etna:I assume his pokemon journey wasnt all it was cracked up to be either, huh?
SS:*fighting* Yeah! Didnt even get a chance ta train any, got a huge shitstorm of chatot that utterly ruined Sinnoh!
Etna:Hey, are you battling something?
Suddenly the lights come on, SS is standing on the mutilated corpse of a five-head hydra. Having disemboweled and destroyed its vitals rather than decapitating it.
SS:Well, I was.
Hopper:WELL DONE, YOU HAVE COMPLETED YOUR FIRST CHALLENGE. NOW RETURNING TO STARTING POINT.
The time spent in the first room is erased, the group is transported back into the starting room.
Spectre:Dood, does this mean we have to teleport allll the way to the beginning for every challenge we complete?
Hopper:TELEPORTERS SHALL BE PLACED IN THE ROOMS YOU COMPLETE, EXCLUSIVELY USABLE BY YOUR GROUP. THEREFORE YOU CAN TELEPORT BACK TO TEST OUT OTHER DOORS YOU DID NOT CHOOSE.
SS:Huh.
Everyone advances to the hydra room, its empty and illuminated, there are two rooms to go into.
Spectre:..Hmm, which way should we go, dood?
SS:Maybe we should split up?
Spectre:I dunno dood, that can make things get hairy. But then again, we might be able to get through this huge mess faster...
Hopper:YOU MAY ADVANCE AS YOU WISH. YOU WILL BE ABLE TO RENDEVOUS WITH YOUR PARTY BACK AT THE ENTRACE AFTER YOUR TRIALS ARE COMPLETE.
Spectre:Ok...So which way should we go next?

(Sorry. I worded that really badly. I meant; "The race continues until one reality has completed the maze, at which point the others are transported to the point of entry with their memories erased." So far, our characters have been beaten forty-two times.)
SS: I vote left.
Honji: I support supreme Overlord Shadow!
Hopper: BOTH WAYS WILL EVENTUALLY MEET UP AT SOME POINT.
SS: Right. See ya. *Goes left* What... the crap is this hell?
Shadow and Honji are in a room full of massive gears with a door on the other side. The floor is missing.
SS: *Flaps his wings and raises an eyebrow when nothing happens* Can't fly in this room. *Leaps onto one of the gears, and begins running, narrowly avoiding being crushed to death several times.*
Honji: *Follows, reacting faster than Shadow and narrowly avoiding death only once* Supreme overlord! Look out!
SS: *Ducks and an arrow sails over his head*
There are a pair of alternates standing on a horizontally rotating gear. Shadow is incredibly bulky, wearing a loincloth and not much else while Honji looks like an amazon with a bow, dagger and long, straight hair as opposed to Honjis ponytail. And the lower face-obscuring cloth is present obviously.
SS: Scheisse!
Honji: *Sails through the air, landing on the same platform gear with ease*
SS: *Throws his sword like a grappling hook and pulls himself up*
Honji: *Fighting with her alternate, physically larger self. More accurately, she's getting as many hits in as she can while dodging punches and stabs that would easily rip her in half should they connect*
Amazon Honji: What's wrong small me? Too weak to fight back? Maybe you should just give up, I mean it's not like your version can win against my supreme warlord Shadow!
Honji: *Slowly moving to the edge of the gear* Your?
AH: *Looks at the Scryers, who are fighting much the same way* You heard nothing, got it?!
Honji: What's to stop me from telling him?
AH: ME! *Charges, knife raised*
Honji: *Rolls out of the way at the last second*
AH: Woah! Wooooah! *Windmills desperately, somehow managing to keep her balance*
Honji: *Kicks her in the back, sending her plummeting*
The SSs stop fighting and for a few seconds, the gears are the only source of noise. Then a sickening crunch echos through the room.
Barbarian SS: HONJI! *Glares at Honji* I'LL KILL YOU BITCH!
SS: *Spears him through the back* Trust me mate, don't take ya eyes off ya enemy.
BS (Heh): *Rips his enemies hand out, slams him into the gear they're fighting on (Which is turning vertically. Shadow relocated their fight to limit interruptions) and begins strangling him, failing to notice they're approaching where it and another gear mesh*
SS: *Notices and contemplates his options* Entschuldigen scheiße-kopf! (Sorry shithead! That is not a B, it's a pait of... ss? Ses? Esses? Wow. That's weird.) *Slashes the side of his alternates face deep enough to take out an eye*
BS: *Roars in agony, clutching at his wound long enough to be thrown off, head-first into the gears. Use your imagination*
SS: *Climbs across the gears to the other side of the room where Honji is waiting*
Honji: Well, it was interesting.
SS: Barbarians. Physically unmatched, not too much goin' for 'em in brainpower.

(Dang, this gets confusing. But I find it to be pretty cool, in a way.) Spectre:Well, I guess that means we go right dood. Right is always right, right? Etna:Your right. Lets head right right away. Spectre:Right! Spectre and Etna head right. The room is pitch-black, but some lights flicker on revealing a long, dark hallway. Being barely illuminated by some lamps. It appears to be the inside of a house, though. There is old, yet fancy wallpaper and a pale yellow carpet. Etna:... Spectre:..Maybe we should have headed left, dood. Etna:Why? Looks kinda nice. Spectre:Nice?! This place looks haunted!! Etna:Come on, lets get out of here so we can go home. Spectre:Right... Spectre nervously follows Etna. As they walk down the hallway, they see some old, musty small tables and antiques decorating the hallway. Spectre:*shudders* Oh shit.Etna:..Hey, do you hear a music box playing? Spectre:*turns pale*Y-y-y-yeaaah... Etna:.....*looks at an old , dark wooden door with an old-fashioned iron handle* Huh. Its coming from in here. Spectre:Lets. Just. Walk. Away. Dood. You KNOW that theres going to be something absolutely horrifying behind there!!! Etna:Dont be such a baby! I know your retired from being an overlord, but you shouldnt be scared of crap like this. Spectre:I call it "being cautious". Etna opens the door and walks in, Spectre follows quickly. Its a bathroom. The shower is running and the curtains are closed, the room is illuminated very mildly by a ceiling light. The pale, teal tiles make it almost resemble a hospital or a public restroom. Etna:....*looks at the shower* Spectre:Etna, I'm telling you! DONT OPEN IT!! Etna:Shhh! Etna slowly walks over to the shower and grabs the curtain. There is a shadow behind it. Spectre:*covers his eyes* Someone naked's gonna be in there, someone naked's gonna be in there... Etna swiftly opens the curtains. Theres nothing but an old mannequin holding a music box. Spectre:...Take the music box? Etna:..*Shrugs, turns off the box, and takes it* Spectre:Took the Music box! Etna:What are you doing? Spectre:I figured I should narrate, gives a light hearted feeling of suspense. Better than me going into shock and you having to haul me through here! Etna:Point taken. If it calms you down, go ahead. Just dont do it in a situation that calls for silence. The two proceed to exit the bathroom, but the sink bubbles. Spectre/Etna:....*dart their eyes to the sink* Spectre:.... Etna:Go look. Spectre:Why does it gotta be me... Spectre walks over to the sink and looks into it.. Its bubbling blood from the drain. Spectre:*turns pale and runs over to Etna* Etna:Whats wrong? Oh double shit!Blood fills and erupts from the sink, it pools onto the ground in a thick puddle. Etna:!!!! It bubbles as the puddle expands. An arm rises out of it. Oh TRIPLE SHIT!The arm grabs onto the ground and throws a dark figure out of the blood. It is Spectre, though he is heavily mangled(especially on the face, including one hollow eye, exposed flesh, a chipped up Beak, and his crest is really gray and ragged. He is wearing a old, musty school coat and weilding a huge pair of scissors. Horror Spectre:*beak clicks quickly as he approaches, constantly snapping his overgrown shears* Etna:*typical horror scream* Spectre:*even higher pitched typical horror scream* The horrifying version of Spectre begins to chase the two throughout the house.

Alternate Etna: (Is wearing jeans and a sleeveless shirt. And no gloves.) Are we there yet?!
Alternate Spectre: (Through gritted teeth, even though he has a beak) I don't. Know! Now shut up! I'm trying to get us through this in one piece!
AE: YOU'RE TRYING TO GET YOURSELF THROUGH THIS! YOU TRIED TO FEED ME TO THAT MANTICORE LAST ROOM!
AS: And since when was it a secret that I don't like you?
AE: That's not the problem! You threw me at it before I could kill you!
Specter and Etna run past, followed by the undead Spectre
US: *Slows to a halt and stares at the alternates* ... *Raises its scissors and stabs alternate Spectre in the face*
Etna: Door! Go! While it's distracted!
Spectre: *Gibbering incoherently, but still running at top speed*
The two escape as the abomination finishes gouging out the eyes of the alternate Etnas corpse
Spectre: I! AM! NEVER! GOING! THAT! WAY! AGAAAAAAAIN!
Etna: Uh, I heard you read that you were beaten to the finish 42 times, so you've probably gone that way at least a few times. Who knows how many times you've said that.
Hopper: 20. EVERY TIME YOU TWO ENTER THAT ROOM, YOU SURVIVE. EVERY TIME THE OTHER TWO DO, THEY EITHER DIE TRYING TO KILL IT AND EVERY OTHER ONE OF THE NEVER-ENDING LEIGON OR WASTE TOO MUCH TIME AND LET SOMEONE ELSE GET TO THE END BEFORE YOU.
Shadow and Honji are locked in mortal combat with their more technologically advanced selves. Shadow is in dead space armour complete with helmet. Honji is much the same, except her armour is less bulky and instead of the helmet, she has very flexible steal where her face cloth should be. They claim it's standard military protocol and Shadow is something called the "Battlemaster". The method of combat in this room is... interesting Their weapons have disappeared.
SS: Honji! *Tosses her a disk with a shield on it*
Honji: *Catches it, straps it to her arm and holds it up, an energy shield popping up just in time to save her* Behind you!
SS: *Straps a cylinder to his forearm and spins around, a red blade erupting from it and clashes with Futureistic Shadows own, blue wristblade*
FS: *Grabs the back of Shadows head and slams it against his own, helmeted head, detaching his wristblade and hitting a button on it, making a blade pop out and surround itself with blue energy* *Staggers back as Honjis shield connects with the armour in front of his face*
SS: *Picks up an axe, which engulfs the blade in red energy, jump kicks his alternate in the chest, knocking him to the floor, lands on his feet, embeds the axe in his helmet and stomps on the back in case it didn't reach the flesh* *Panting* Nano-regenerate that, bitch.
Honji: *In a knife fight, holding her weapon in her left hand, the blade of which is engulfed in light purple energy* *Locks blades and raises a gun with her right hand*
Futureistic Honji: *Eyes widen* No fair-
Honji: *Shoots her right between the eyes and just to make sure, decapitates her before her corpse hits the ground* *Shakes head* Are the fights getting harder supreme overlord?
SS: *Blade appears across his back* I think so. But we've only been through two rooms, so I'm not sure yet.

Spectre:*sobs* Etna:There there, we'll get through this....Eventually. We arent really capable of losing from what I've heard so far. Spectre:Dont jinx us, dood. Hopper:YOUR HUSBAND SPEAKS WISELY. The two arrive into the next room, its full of the corpses of dead SS's, Honji's, Spectre's, and Etna's. They're scattered all over the room, horrendously bloody, they appear to be flayed and drained of all blood, and horrendously dismembered. There is also ALOT of vomit, typically around the SS corpses. Spectre/Etna:........ *growl*Hurrrr!!!!! Spectre:.....*turns towards the noise*......*turns pale, flies into shock and falls over* Etna:Huh? Whats the matter with you? Spectre:*shock* ??:Yeh ereth yob! Etna:*slowly turns her head to see an infamous abomination of G-mod* ??:Sti emit ot epar gnouy meina slirg!! Tghir retfa a suoiciled kcans! *picks up Spectre, swallowing him whole and spitting out a shower of vomit and gore* Etna:AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH- ??:HURRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!! The horror vomits a torrent of white, viscous pre-digestive fluid that begins melting Etna. It then leaps at Etna and sucks off all of her skin, hair and clothes from the top of her head. It then dismembers her violently and effortlessly and lets out a horrifying howl. ??:HWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!*head spins around rapidly* Spectre and Etna are teleported back to the beginning of the trial. Spectre:Huh? Hey, were are we? Etna:I dont know. Hopper:*explains again* Spectre:Ah shit! You mean we gotta race against BILLIONS of other us-es? Hopper:YES. AND YOU HAVE JUST EXPERIENCED A ROOM THAT MEANS CERTAIN DEATH. IT IS AN OBSTACLE KNOWN AS VAGINEER. YOU ACTUALLY GOT KILLED BY IT ABOUT FIFTEEN TIMES ALREADY. YOUR FRIENDS ALSO MET A COUPLE OF BLOODY, VOMIT AND EXCREMENT SOAKED FATES WITH IT. REMEBER THAT RIGHT IS NOT ALWAYS RIGHT. ALSO KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR SECRET DOORS. Spectre:Ok... Etna:..*looks at a wall* Hey, what does this button do? Etna pushes the button, the floor opens out from under them. Spectre:..Dood, how did you not see that coming? Etna:*shrugs* There is actually a large fan under it, it blows them into the ceiling which opens on contact, leading them to a different room. Spectre:Huh. Whaddaya know dood. Etna:.....

Spectre:So whats in here dood?
Etna:I dont see anything...
Spectre:H-hey, are we going lower?
Spectre and Etna are sinking through the air, revealing they're being slowly kept hovering by a fan that appeared in the hole in the floor.
They both breifly gasp in suprise and simply use their wings to fly out of it.
Hopper:DAMN, I FORGOT ABOUT THE WINGS. USUALLY THAT IS ALWAYS A SPLENDID GORE SHOWER. YOUR CLEVER. LETS SEE HOW YOU HANDLE SOMETHING MORE REPETETIVE.
A door opens.
Spectre/Etna:...*shrug and go through*
Its a large, but rather normal looking library with a door at the end, a basic-looking, wooden door.
They walk over to it.
Hopper:THE PASSWORD TO MAKE THIS DOOR OPEN LIES WITHIN ONE OF THE MANY BOOKS HERE. ONCE YOU FIND IT, IT SHALL OPEN ON ITS OWN.
Spectre:Ok..
Etna:Well, this sucks. Were do we start?
Spectre:With the As?
Etna:Lets just pick up one and read it...
The two begin to curiously look in the library.
Spectre:You know, there is some pretty interesting stuff here dood. *looks inside a book*
Etna:*same* I agree, though I never was a library person.
Spectre: "Biology of the Corpus Caversernum"....*reads into it* The Corpus Caversernum is a poisonous insect that can be described as being a type of "Bed bug". Typically targetting males having stimulating dreams yadayadayada..... The corpus caversernum then engorges itself with blood, due to its unique structure it's venom sack bloats upwards after flailing around along the victims leg significantly, typically standing from 3-7 inches....The occasional 12.
Etna:Uhh, Spectre, you'd better let me read that one.
Spectre:Ok doodette.*trades books*
Etna:Alright..*begins reading with intense interest as a trail of blood runs from her nose*
Spectre:Whats wrong doodette?
Etna:Uhhh..Its just the cold temperature in here, its drying out my nose...Yeah...
Spectre:Oh...Ok..*begins reading* The Slave Dog of Flanders. Once there was a boy named Nero who had a beloved Dog who loved him very, very, very, VERY much.....
Etna:*takes the book from Spectre*Go read another one.
Spectre:But doodette-
Etna:JUST DO IT!!
Spectre:But can you read two books at once?
Etna:YES! Now..Go look into a different sections, like the children's books or, maybe the teen book section, or just read something that isnt from over here!
Spectre:*shrugs* If you say so, doodette...*looks through* Lets see here..."Catcher in the Rye"..*begins reading*...................................Shit dood, this kid has issues!
Etna:I'd better read that one to..*takes it*
Spectre:Are you going to let me read anything?! Geez...You stupid adults and your..Your...Stupid adultness! IM GONNA ASSINATE RONALD REAGAN!*pulls a sniper rifle out of his pouch*
Etna:*sighs* I take it being prinnified still didnt make your brain bigger than a walnut....By the way, Ronald Reagan died YEARS ago.
Spectre:...Oh. Well that sucks. Guess I dont need this.*throws the rifle away*....."Lord of the Flies"?
Spectre picks up a book with a picture of a fat kid and a giant fly on it, he reads with mild interest.
Spectre:.........................................................................................................................
Spectre throws the book aside, he pulls out a pistol and aims it at his head.
Etna:SPECTRE!!!!*takes the pistol away and slaps him*GET AHOLD OF YOURSELF!!!
Spectre:*Sniff*B..But dood...The children lost their innocence...Their lives...And so did I...*begins crying into his palms*
Etna:Spectre, dont even start with that shit. You know damn well that you lost that ages ago.
Spectre:*normal* Oh, your right dood!
Etna:How about you go and read and comics and manga section? Something nice and not-complex and death inducing?
Spectre:Okay doodette!*waddles over, browsing the shelves* Wow, these havent been really ripped up at all dood. Nice to see the patrons taking care of the literature.....Huh, whats this? *picks up a manga*HEY ETNA! COME TAKE A LOOK AT THIS!
Etna:What is it?
Spectre:Its this weird manga I found called "Dis-guy-a". Its got you and Laharl in it! Hey! Theres that angel girl thats always with Laharl! "Flonne" I believe...And all sorts of other doods we know!
Etna:..Do you think..?
Spectre:........
both:Nah!
Etna:Lets get back to reading.
Spectre:Ok dood! *Reads through Disgaea, then puts it up on the shelf* No password here! Hey, whats this?
Etna:*reading Amityville Horror* Huh?
Spectre:*sitting on top of a gigantic pile of manga* Im done dood. These things dont take long to read. I saved a few for you. *Points to a pile of manga more oriented towards "mature" audiences*
Etna:Ok..
Spectre:I've read some weird stuff dood, I wonder what goes on within the mind of the writers and artists, dood? They seem to use people and put them together into weird stories, like the one with you, Laharl, and Flonne!
Etna:*shrugs*
Spectre:Oh well. Back to browsing.

(Heheheh,,, I wonder if your character accidently ended up reading the Disgaea 2 manga. I only ever showed ya the last two volumes. A LOT was left out. Like Laharl effortlessly beating the shite outta countless self-proclaimed, nameless “heroes”, Etna quitting her job as Laharls vassal, Plienair (?) ending up working for the Netherworld government, Etna wishing she took a photo for “leverage”, Rozalin falling after the summoning as opposed to floating down and subsequently landing on top of Adell, ending up… well, something happened accidently and she tried to kill him in revenge. That’s… about halfway through the first volume I think. Also, Etna has her next episode previews back. And after saving Rozalin from a trio of prinnies who were dumb enough to literally run off a cliff carrying their hostage, there’s a bath scene. Nothing’s shown thankfully but still...)
SS: *Shudders* Did something just happen?
Hopper: YOUR… FRIENDS ENTERED THE CERTAIN DEATH ROOM. LUCKILY FOR THEM, DEATH THERE IS ERASED AND THEY ARE GIVEN AN IMMEDIATE SECOND CHANCE. IF THEY DIED ELSEWHERE, THEY WOULD AUTOMATICALLY FORFIT THE RACE AND SHOULD YOU WIN, REMAIN DEAD. STRANDED BETWEEN REALITIES. THUS FAR, THAT HAS NOT HAPPENED. A PITY REALLY, I DISPISE YOU INFERIOR FLESH-SACKS.
Honji: You’ve made that a bit too clear thanks. *mutters irritably* *Exits the room and begins windmilling desperately*
SS: Steady! *Grabs her hand and pulls her back*
The floor is missing at the beginning, the overall appearance of the room is that of a volcanic wasteland, with red cracks running along the ground and lava erupting from the floor every so often.
SS: Well this is just fucking great. Honji, let’s move before-
A door right next to them opens
SS: -exactly that happens.
AS: *Wearing a hooded robe, his face obscured* I recognize you.
SS: Yep. Sith Scryer right?
Sith Scryer: Actually, my name is Shadow. May I say that I find your universes take on ours as… interesting. I fought on the Republics side, Anakin never had those visions, uncovered Sidious and executed him right then and there. He found sufficient evidence and escaped trial, Order 66 was never executed, the Empire was founded by force-sensitive, powerful, power-hungry dictators, Anakin perfected preservation of life through the force, though he still believes he hasn’t got it completely correct yet and uses it every time we storm the sith academy, feigning alliance with them, Specter was once a Wookie, Etna’s a non-force sensitive young Zeltron with red hair, a long-handled lightsaber and a different view from the rest of her species. … Also, I found Asajj Ventress before Douku and raised her as my apprentice, teaching her both dark and light, stormtroopers are nothing more that low-life, worthless, dime-a-dozen scumbags like Trandoshan slavers, Hutt crime lords, Weequay pirates… and many of our alternate selves.
SS: I disagree. They might be evil scumbags, but they’re strong evil scumbags. And I don’t think you’re one of ‘em.
SWS: Hmm… Honji? Take off your wig.
Darth Honji: *Easily removes her hair from her head, releasing two tentacles attached to the back of her head, both of which are light purple. She takes out a remote, hits a button and her skin changes to the colour of her head-tails*
Honji: T-Twi’lek? I’M A TWILEK IN YOUR REALITY?! … Wow!
SWS: *Throws off his robe, reveling turquoise skin, long limbs despite his height, shorts, a sleeveless shirt and four lightsabers at his sides*
SS: *Blinks* You’re a Jango Jumper.
SWS: Really?! I never guessed! *Takes out a lightsaber and activates it. The blade is black.* *Throws it and the other three in random directions and begins fighting with Shadow, occasionally calling one and throwing it just as fast*
Darth Honji: *Fights with both lightsabers, unwilling to let her counterpart win*
Honji: *Dodging every strike, though there are a few near misses*
After a while, SWS has his four-bladed weapon assembled ‘cause I’m not entirely sure how to write the battle. Just imagine Sith catching lightsabers, throwing them after one swing and immediately catching another one while Shadow dodges in ways that look like they should have resulted in his skeletal system shattering like glass.
SS: *Dodges a spin, flips over his opponent and grabs his head, intending to break his neck*
SWS: *Smashes him in the face with the back of his head, punches him in the throat and kicks him in the shin*
SS: *Hisses in pain* Not good enough mate! I’ve been beaten to a pulp before by Baal!
SWS: In my dimension, my friend Specter the jedi/beastmaster trained the thing that killed Baal! He trained the freaking Zillo beast to use the force! Me? I can’t train monsters! I’ve trained Twi’leks, Rodians, Gungans, some of Asajjs Nightsisters, Zabrak including the Nightbrothers, Kel’dor, Jango Jumpers like myself, even a few droids programmed for combat, but I’ve NEVER been able to train that wide a variety of pupils! I can’s train monsters or even most other sentient species like that infernal wookie can! I! Envy! Spectre!
SS: I know how ya feal mate. My vassals were like a second family to me. One of them betrayed me and the ensuing war cost the rest of them their organs, limbs and very nearly lives. I was a member of several versions of myself dedicated to keeping things from spiraling out of control, we were betrayed and attacked by the ones who erased our memories in the first place, escaped with the intension of carrying on our work, but guess what! One of us wasn’t dark and it wasn’t our Light self! The official leader of the group betrayed everyone else and had them nearly all executed. I heard from our fire, earth, water and air selves, but other than that… I envy Specter for his allies loyalty and honestly, I’m not sure if I’m really his friend! I mean for fucks sake, I directly killed him! Twice! AND I AM PISSED!
SWS: ! *Strikes Shadow across the base of the throat. It’s a shallow cut.*
SS: *Slashes him across the throat with four claws. They’re deep cuts.*
SWS: *Is stunned*
SS: *Punches him in the face, spears him through the heart, spins around him, grabs his head and shoves it into a stream of lava* But that doesn’t mean I can’t help him if he needs it.
Darth Honji: *Eyes widen in horror and commits suicide, stabbing herself with her own blades*
Honji: Okay, that was odd.
SS: They’re only our alternate selves. HONJI! If I die, I want you to get a hold of yourself and not kill yourself. It’s a cowards way out, ‘kay?
Honji: Yes sir!
SS: Right, let’s go. With any luck, we should meet up with the others soon. Maybe next room if we’re lucky.
Both keep moving through the maze

(I doubt that he'd read anything that would get too ecchi. All he needs is a mild sexual comment to fly into shock.) Spectre:*looking in the science fiction section* Etna:*looking at just about anything that could be considered dangerous for Spectre to read* Spectre:...Hey Etna! Look at this cool book I found! Etna:*from another part of the library* What is it? Spectre:Its called the...."Nacranormoron!" Or something..The names to weird to read...Wow, this is a creepy book.*opens it*..Hmmmm.."Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Sp'hultu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn"....Hey- why is the book shaking?! WHAT THE- Etna:*looks Behind the shelf*...*eyes widen* There are two Spectres. One of them which is green on color, has coral-like eyebrows, black eye sockets with a transparent red, glass-like eye in them, and a mass of tentacles were his beak should be. The bottom of his flippers have suckers like that of an octopus tentacle. Etna:...Spectre, thats the Necronomicon. Sp'hultu:*incomprehensible gurgling**eyes roll and looks at the neutral Spectre* *focuses his eyes on Etna and gurgles again* Etna:Ok... You've been seperated from your beloved mate Eta'Naa because of this airhead? In the middle of a...What session?! Sp'hultu:*gurgles, nodding his head* Hopper:I DIDNT BRING IN THE DWELLERS OF THE ELDRICH DIMENSION BECAUSE THEY ARE SOMEHOW IMMUNE TO MY MIND-WIPING. STUPID OCTOPI ARE TOO INTELLIGENT FOR THEIR OWN GOOD. Sp'hultu:*enraged gurgling as he squirts ink at a speaker, causing it to malfunction" Hopper:HEY- I USE THAT TO BERATE MY.........V...TIMS...*static* Etna:Hey, thanks for shutting him up! Sp'hultu:*nods and picks up the Necronomicon with his facial tendrils and swallows it*.....*holds out a cup and fills it full of sickly green ink* *gurgles*? Etna"Do I want some Eldrich Ink"? Umm, thanks for the offer, but we'll pass? Spectre:looks tasty dood! Sp'hultu:*hands Spectre the ink* Spectre:Hmmmmm!*Sniffs it, takes a drink* Delicious! Hey, try some prinny juice! Spectre fills up a cup with his signature beverage and holds it out. Sp'hultu:*grabs it with a facial tendril and consumes it, cup and all*....*gurgles in delight* Etna:Uhhh..Yeah. Just dont let that stuff get in your eyes. Sp'hultu:*begins gurgling at Spectre* Spectre:I know dood, people just dont recognize delicious when they see it! Sp'hultu:*gurgles, crossing his arms and rolling his eyes* Spectre:I totally know dood! My wife doesnt appreciate fine netherworld beverages either! Or my friends, people are crazy... Sp'hultu:*sadly nods and gurgles with agreement* Etna:Can we get back to reading? Spectres:*nod* Sp'hultu:*holds up a finger, gestering to stop*...*begins gurgling an odd incantation*... Suddenly a portal opens and a version of Etna slithers out, she is sort of a "mermaid" style creature. She has light green skin, a dark green eel-like tail, and has similiar eyes to Sp'hultu. She also has masses of tentacles for her ponytails, and some tentacles over her mouth. She has four eyes.(Two eyeballs in each extended socket) Sp'hultu:*eyes literally shape themselves like "valentine" hearts as he gurgles lovingly* Eta'Naa:*does the same, slithering over to Sp'hultu* The two embrace and begin coddling eachothers faces with their tentacles. Spectre:...I'm...Not sure what I'm seeing dood. Etna:I'm not sure if I should say thats romantic or squick... Sp'hultu:*gurgles at Eta'Naa* Eta'Naa:*gurgles at Sp'hultu* Sp'hultu:*gurgles twoards Spectre and Etna* The two eldrich abominations are sucked into a portal and taken away. Etna:Hey! Why are you leaving?! Spectre:Maybe they didnt wanna be bothered, dood. Etna:*sighs* I bet they would have been a big help to have around... Spectre:How are we going to read through all this crap by ourselves?! Spectre walks over to the door and kicks it in anger. Not again!A pair of huge blades peirces through the door and nearly stab Spectre as he kicks it, he staggers back in terror. The door opens. Shit is most definatly getting real.Spectre's maniacal scissor-weilding counterpart leaps into the room, snapping his massive shears wildly. He begins chasing Spectre and Etna. But as opposed to his previous slow and menacing gait, he is running at them Very fast, holding his scissors in one hand while chasing, but once he gets close he begins slowly and menacingly snapping them, making a metallic cutting noise. Spectre/Etna:*scream* The two run in two seperate directions, evading the maniac as he leaps down and snaps his scissors, cutting a bookshelf in half horizontally after missing the two. They then run side-by-side after making it past him. ScissorSpectre:*growls, gripping his fist* ScissorSpectre resumes his wild pursuit, chasing the two as they run through the door. Etna:HOW THE HELL DID HE BREAK THROUGH THE DOOR SO EASY?! Hopper:I SAID THE DOOR WOULD OPEN BY ITSELF IF YOU FOUND THE PASSWORD. I DIDNT SAY YOU COULDNT OPEN IT. Etna:YOUR ONE OF THE BIGGEST DICKHEADS I'VE EVER MET!!!! Hopper:HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAH. Spectre:Yeah, dood! Scissor:*laughs wildly as he persues them* Meanwhile, at the location of Sith Scryers corpse. The sound of a high-pitched, small step can be heard. A cloaked figure walks over. ??:Ahhhh. My old friend...*pulls back his hood, revealing Jedi Spectre*Dood... Jedi looks over Sith Scryer's corpse. Jedi:*sighs* My poor, unfortunate friend. I always knew you would meet a fate like this. *stoops down on one peg*...If only you would listen. Sith or not..Have you ever listened to the wisdom of the force?.....Light and Dark. Two sides of one coin. Your philosophy, it was true. Dark is not evil, nor is light....But through that, you made a fatal flaw. You went over the bound of the mere elemental dark, you indulged within the vast yet insubstantial power that true darkness offers. The darkness that creeps within the shadows of every being's heart. It gave you power, power that nearly no being could match...But with such immense power, comes a great, terrible cost. Regardless of what you had, a beloved apprentice and following, great power, skill, you wanted more. You sought what I had..But I? I am but a humble Wookie. Do you know why I have so much of what you perceive as power.....?...I simply obtained it out of my desire to understand the force. Every day and night, after my outcast, I sat down on a lone planetoid and I opened my mind, over my vast time of exile all I did was live with the force..I breathed the force, I moved with the force, I let the force flow within every vein of my body. Eventually, I transcended my mortal shell and became one with it. I realized the insignificance of material wealth, fame, fortune, and glory...The only thing that truly mattered to me was to see peace, for only through tranquility of mind can one understand what the true power governing this universe is, and join it. I merely took in apprentices because I wished to spread this knowledge, however I found that all my "sentient" apprentices would misuse it...Therefore, I looked back to the basics of the universe, the original species, the innocent beasts. Though many may be portrayed as mindless, it is because they do not have their heads filled with the materialistic desires of man, and are the only beings who have the space in their minds and spirits to take in the wisdom of the force. It has corrupted a few, due to the bits of sentient knowledge that may be taught and understood through it, yet it has given many more wisdom, understanding of peace and benevolence....*stands up* However...You did not persue that path.... You chose darkness. Physical, earthly power...But through that, one cannot acheive true fullfillment. It will lead you on a path, one containing many negative emotions. Anger, jealousy, pride, lust, obsession...Do you see how such a path leads to spiritual destruction...?..And the destruction of those you hold dear? *gestures towards Darth Honji* And even so, it leads to the death of countless others who get caught within the conflict, sparking vast, widespread hatred and misery. Remember, sith. Desire will inevitably lead to envy. Envy can lead to fear and anger. And that? it leads to hatred... And Hatred?..... *Jedi takes off his cloak and respectfully covers Sith Scryers body* Leads to the Dark side........ ......................... ........................................... Dood... Jedi closes his eyes, he stands up. Without his brown cloak, he wears pure white robe. Jedi:May you go with the force, my old, foolish friend. And the highest power that it stems from.*looks towards the sky* Hopper:SUCH INSIGNIFICANT SENTIMENTAL RABBLE. AS EXPECTED, OF A MEATBAG. Jedi:There is no flesh covering my bones, nor are there bones for any flesh to connect to. You, are a machine. And artificial creation of a mortal, so full of flaws yet so capable of destruction. I understand, what your doing here. You only allow your victims to live as much as you want them to. Just as my fallen friend, and his unfortunate, child-minded apprentice...And many of the poor souls who have fallen to the horrors of this mind destroying maze of vast finity. Hopper:YOU WILL FALL JUST LIKE ALL OF THE REST. Jedi:Haha. Do you think you have an advantage over me?..I am one with the force, a much greater cosmic power than you can comprehend. The wisdom of the force flows throughout the universe, maintaining order and balance. This mere trinket you are using to cull out the beings you dislike is not but a speck of dust flowing through a much greater storm.\ Hopper:CULL...?...AHAHAHAHA. TRULY, THIS GREAT TRIAL IS NATURAL SELECTION AT ITS FINEST... Jedi:Indeed, it is. Yet great or weak, every being is but an equally tiny fraction of the force. They simply do not know how to tap into it...You will be allowed to continue with this vile game. For so many beings, alternate beings, upset the balance. They are what the beings of neutrality lack in knowledge and thought, and with every alternate death, a revelation is absorbed into the one, true being to fill the void left behind. They may not realize it initially...But they will, even if it's trigger is death.... Hopper:INCOMPREHENSIBLE RABBLE.*signs off* Jedi:....Scryer of Darkness...Do not succumb to the same fate that the Sith did...I do not know if I can truly reach your heart, but I can only pray that you may be saved...*looks at a door* Now, I shall continue forth, facing any trial against me, until I have completed my purpose here...My beloved, late Etna, my apprentices, watch over your true beings from within them....I must find Spectre.. jedi Spectre, with his lightsabers at the ready, continues his journey. A blazing fire of purpose seering in his eyes.

A translucent Sith Scryer appears in front of Jedi Spectre
SWS: DAMNIT SPECTRE! I understand that. You chose your path, I chose mine. You were the brains, mainly taking padawans and teaching them pacifism through the force while I... I was more suited for destruction. We both used both sides of the force, but I focused mainly on the dark side while you focused on the light. I know you can tame monsters and more pupils, I'm happy for your ability to do that, but at the same time, I envy you. You're more diplomatic... I'm a warrior. You only fight when you have to, I fight our enemies whether they're on our doorstep or their own. I know for a fact that even though Etna remained by your side, she believed that the dark, offensive side of the force was the more practical. You were right, all creatures possess some force, and she was able to use her tiny scraps to control fire.
Jedi Spectre: She is dead now.
SWS: As am I, old friend. Don't forget though, this... thing resurrects the fallen of the defeated realities whenever one wins. If you fall, Etna, Honji and I will revive. If you win... I heard it say that our spirits will be forever stranded between realities with no way back. Do what you will my friend. None of us will hold it against you. *Cuts the connection, fading from sight*
SS: I don't like this. The barbarians and futuristic us we didn't know, so it's not like we had any ties to them, but it dealt a serious emotional blow, killing them.
Honji: I know Supreme Overlord. I know. *Looks around* I library?
SS: ! I think I can hear Specter and Etna... Let's go! *Runs towards the sound on all fours while Honji runs as fast as she can, still managing to keep up.*

Jedi:..Indeed, my friend. However, what I am seeking is not victory or defeat. There is something I must do, and though it may lead to either result, I will accept the outcome. *resumes walking*
In the maze.
Spectre's scissor weilding counterpart is hot on the trail of Spectre and Etna, as they run through the maze they see the sadistically dismembered bodies of many of their alternates, having been chopped up by blades. Any living obstacle that would have normally been in their way is dead, meeting a similiar fate.
Spectre:This dood is a complete monster!!!
Etna:I know!!
They eventually arrive in a room with a vast physical obstacle, the door is on the other side of a long, recangular pit of spinning gears.
the two come to a screeching halt.
Spectre:What do we do?!
Etna:*thinks* Lets just try and fly across! *wings expand*
Spectre:I've become so heavy its hard for me to fly.
Etna:Ugh!*grabs Spectre by the arms* How much can a prinny weigh?!
Etna lifts Spectre up and takes him over the gears just as the massive shears snap at them, narrowly escaping.
Maniac Spectre:*grumbles angrily, stomping the ground and flailing his scissors in the air*...*calmy retreats into the door, with his old, slow gait*
Etna:*drops Spectre on the other side in front of the door*W-we made it...
Spectre:We did, dood!
The two hug, laughing in their victory.
Just as a ceiling pannel falls above them.
The head of Maniac Spectre peeks out.
He lands and snaps his scissors menacingly, the two pale and stare in horror. Before they can make a move, the little bastard tackles them into the gears.
Spectre:*stuffs Etna in his pouch, then wraps himself around it as they fall into the gears*
Maniac:*laughs madly, jumping around snipping his scissors like a little boy in a candy store*..*walks through the door, snapping his scissors as he takes each step*
Spectre goes through the gears and lands in a very dark area.
Etna:*flies out of Spectres pouch, tumbling on the ground and desperately gasping for air*D-DAMN IT SPECTRE..*cough, wheeze*...
Spectre:...Uhh...
Etna:..*hugs him* Thank you...
Spectre:*hugs back* Of course doodette!....
Etna:But were are we now?
The sound of something slashing against rock with a blade is heard.
??:Grah! Damn it, the sigil is a centimeter off now...Hang on, hang on, let me get some light in here....
*flick*
Suddenly a large, metallic eight-candled chandelier ignites in a blue fire, illuminating the room. They find themselves in a mysterious laboratory.
Demonologist:*was drawing a sigil with his cane-sword* Chipped a bit in the center. Just have to fill it up and try again.*shrugs*
Etna:Its..You.
Demonologist:Yes, the one and only. *begins filling up his sigil with cement, the same color as the floor*
Spectre:Have you and your alternates been brought here to fight to?
Demonologist:Hmmm? Oh no no no no no..I think you'll find that me and my other demonic brethren are exempt from this bizzare, multi-dimensional rule. I simply came along because here, the competitors are too busy fighting for their lives to try and hunt me down and bother me.
Spectre:Ok.
Demonologist:Well, if your tired feel free to rest here for a bit. I've rigged this joint up to were the hopper cant see or hear whats going on down here. Just dont make to much noise, and for the sake of all of our health, dont touch anything.
Spectre:Umm, thanks dood.
Etna:But we'll pass!
Demonologist:Very well. If you want to return to the maze, then step in the portal in the rightmost corner of the other side of the room. *cement dries, begins carving another sigil* Just walk over to it.
The two approach the sigil on the other side of the room, it glows blue and the mark begins twirling.
Spectre and Etna jump on the portal, it teleports them to the other side of the gear room.(at the end were Spectre dived in.)
Hopper:WERE DID YOU COME FROM?
Spectre/Etna:*shrugs*
Hopper:HMMMM. MUST BE A MALFUNCTION IN THE RESPAWN DEVICE...YOU COULDNT HAVE SURVIVED BEING GRINDED BY THOSE GEARS. VERY WELL, LETS GO OVER THE RULES.*explains again*
Spectre:*feigning shock* Oh my, we gotta go through this maze dood..
Etna:Bummer.
Spectre:*sighs* Lets go.
The two go through the gear room to face their next trials.
