Been itching to write lately... and doing some KoA'ing sounded like fun as well. In addition... I needed to get some thoughts/feelings out somehow, so below is me doing just that. *shrug* maybe this MM adventure is canon or not. Iono. anywayz, I'll continue it when I'm not so tired.

"If they're so powerful, why can't they prevent these atrocities from happening?"
"That guy's probably the weakest of them all. Remember how we had to save his ass?"
"Why give them the special treatment?"
"We used to be the heroes of Heroes. Inc. They've stolen the spotlight."
"What are they even doing to fix these... Time Rifts?"
These were the voices MM heard, amongst others, while he was finishing up his dinner in the cafeteria. His stomach churned as he realized the truth behind these comments. His own mind started to churn a series of questions and thoughts that led him in circles of debate. Frustrated, he got up and headed back to his room.
MM went into his room, went to his bed and hid under the covers. Feeling weak, frustrated, lost, and confused he tried to go to sleep. To no avail. I'm such a fucking child...hiding under the covers from the rest of the fucking world. Ugh...
MM got up before the desire to stay where he was became too strong. He went out to do something monotonous: Practice shooting. He headed to one of the floors which contained a shooting gallery. He talked to the moderators of the shooting gallery and had his targets set up. There were some other people in the shooting gallery which had MM feel a bit uncomfortable. What are they thinking? Do they hate me or blindly adore me?
MM missed every shot he fired.
Seeing this as a sign of defeat, MM returned to his room where he sat on his bed and put his face in his palms.
"This is all too stressful. I'm growing tired of all this responsibility. Can't we just go back to PUCA and hang out with our Pokemon? Oui...." or maybe I'll just lie here...forever...
That was when duty called. MM's hyperlink began to buzz. MM begrudgingly answered it. It was Jeremiah, the CEO of Heroes Inc.
"MM, I have a job for you."
"Yes sir?"

MM found himself in a chopper with a group of Heroes Inc. Soldiers. The captain was currently briefing their mission:
"Not only is the demon winged, but it also can reach up to speeds of 200mph. To make matters even worse, it seems that it has thick armor that prevents any attacks."
Then what's the point? Sounds practically unstoppable.
"Can you do it?" Everyone looked at MM.
"I'll do my best." That's all I can do....I guess...Hopefully it's good enough.
They opened the door to the chopper and MM jumped out. Using his turbow he flew out into the atmosphere. He could feel the wind absorbing him: chilly, noisy, and powerful. He gained some altitude and then tested his radio. He was still able to communicate with those in the chopper.
Next, he felt the rush from the demon. It flew right past him. MM could barely even see it. Then, he saw the dark shadow with glowing red eyes lunch for him. Before MM could move, he could feel himself stabbed by some sort of claws around his torso while moving at an extremely fast rate. He felt like a rag doll while being moved at such a speed. Then he was released. Once he was he was able to station himself to hover in the air again with his Turbow.
The demon perhaps didn't realize that his enemy could fly. MM readied his bow with a bomb arrow and set the detonation on a timer. He sent it into the air, hoping to get the attention of the demon. It worked. Even better, the demon looked stunned. MM fired a few more bomb arrows at the creature. MM was able to get close to it at this point. Taking off one of his blades he stabbed the creature in the eye. The creature retaliated and shook MM off of it. MM quickly gained altitude to avoid the creature's next attack.
But it was too fast. MM was in its talons once again....the creature flew higher and higher until it flew straight into a small line of light...that looked completely unnatural. The two went straight through it and found themselves no longer in the sky: But inside a cathedral of some sort.
The Shadow creature crashed straight into one of the pillars of the cathedral, with MM with it. MM cried out in pain as the shadow creature's speed caused them to crash right through the pillar. MM took his blade again and stabbed the creature in the other eye. The creature was really ticked off at this point. It opened it's mouth to attempt to eat MM, that's where MM saw his chance. He took his blade and gouged the inside of the mouth before the creature could get a chance to close its mouth. In so much pain, it let go of MM, allowing MM to crash on....a person?
"GAH! That was hella-painful!" It was some guy MM's age wearing a uniform of some sort and a blade at his side.
"Oh gosh. I'm so sorry. I didn't even have time to fly...."
"Just...get off. I was trying to break your fall. But gah. It hurts."
"Oui. Thanks. Hold on though..." MM used his Turbow to fly up to where the shadow creature was struggling. Its eyes gouged, its mouth bleeding and gaping open, MM fired a bomb arrow into the mouth of the creature. With the internal explosion, the creature fell to the ground (almost hitting the bystander.)
MM landed on the ground next to the bystander.
"Oui...Again...sorry about landing on you...or...shoot...causing so much destruction...." Once again...I'm making a mess... almost getting bystanders killed.
"Don't mention it... to be honest... I...think you might be the answer to my prayers..."
MM started laughing. He couldn't help it.
"I know...it's dumb...I have no idea who you are or...where you came from...but...before you showed up out of nowhere...I was currently praying to the gods for help to fight back the demons on earth."
"The demons on earth?"
"You don't know?"
"I guess I should explain who I am... My name is Mudki-... MM.... I just came through what is known as a time rift. They've been appearing throughout... this world throughout...different time periods that connect them... In another time period I flew through a time rift while fighting that demon."
"I see... what is your time period like?"
"Well...umm..."
Another person both MM's age and the other person's age came rushing into the cathedral.
"Logan! What the hell happened!? Is that a demon!?"
"It was Kalaam, but it's a dead demon. This guy took it down."
"A fighter of demons!? Aww man. We could use someone like this! By the looks of it...that demon is more than dead!"
"MM. Would you mind helping us in our fight against the demons?"
"Perhaps...to be honest... I'm tired of fighting. That's all I've done back in my own period."
Kalaam and Logan grew sullen as MM said that.
"I understand...but...come with us."
Logan and Kalaam led MM outside the cathedral to over look a huge castle. What was most exciting about the castle...was that it was in the sky. The cathedral was on the highest point of the castle and overlooked all of the castle's towers, courtyards, buildings, gardens, graveyards, archways, waterways, and more.
"This castle is supposedly an ancient castle that was made to fly by using ancient technology... The castle was designed to be a labyrinth to trespassers and a home for those humans who wished to hide away from the demons." Logan explained.
MM quickly scanned the landscape...and felt an eerie aura about the castle.... that's when he started noticing bloodstains, the smell of rotting flesh, remains of armor and weapons, and other signs of battle.
"The demons allowed us peace for a time, but eventually they decided it was time for us to go..." Logan continued.
"There's only four of us left. Only four fucking humans left!" Kalaam clenched his fists and bit his lip.
A dagger hit MM's heart and soul. "F-f-four humans....left?"
"Yeah...." Logan looked down at the ground, "It...seems hopeless...but what else can we do but fight?"
Give in? Give up? Accept the outcome and die in peace? Thoughts similar to these were the ones running through MM's head.
"Damn... perhaps this is where I die too..." MM said.
"No way. You've got skills, strength, and experience that I've hardly ever seen." Logan said.
"I'm only human myself... there's only so much I can do. And this...this situation... it doesn't just seem hopeless... I...I think it...I think it is hopeless."
"I don't care. Hoping is all we can do at this point. Who knows what comes after death, and I wish to respect those who protected us, who kept us safe up until now. It's our turn. If this is the end, I believe we should put on a damn good show for humanity."
Another dagger through MM's heart. This Logan guy had conviction and determination. Something MM wish he had at the moment. Sighing MM turned to look out across the castle.
"Alright...I'll help..." I'm too nice....
