Peach's Castle

Caleb with his Pokémon and Digimon managed to arrive at Peach's castle. Everyone was ready to watch a video in VHS, including E. Gadd.

"What kind of video will be?" Caleb asked.

Then the video starts with a newspaper saying, 'Garden Warfare' and 'The enemy launches 'Z' defensive'. The color was black with white.

A Commando Corn appears saying. "That's right, it's war once again. Your country needs you now, boys. We are fighting an enemy like we have never encountered before.

Some plants passed marching.

"They are evil beyond reproach. Where they have come from, I do not know. We need to send them back to wherever it was they came from. We need you, soldier!" Commando Corn said.

Then a Scary Shroom was there.

"Yes… You!" Commando Corn said at the Shroom. "Sign up at your nearest signing-up station. Should be one near you. But remember, soldier, your country will be indebted to you."

Commando Corn saluted and the video ends.

"Wow!" Luigi said.

"It was like watch the movie of 'Saving Private Ryan'." Caleb said.

"So, what do you say?" Kernel Corn asked.

"Do you want join it?" Citron asked.

"I'm in." Caleb nodded.

"He told that they're coming." Toby said.

"The zombies?" DK asked.

"And Bowser's troops too." Diddy added-

Then the team watched an army of zombies and troops from Bowser coming to the castle of the Princess Peach.

"There are a lot of zombies!" The Acorn Brothers said.

"Stow your fear, is now or never." Rose said.

"We must keep going." Peach said.

"Yup." Sunflower nodded.

In other part, Toby was surrounded by goats.

"Only are goats." Toby said.

As every goat tried to tackle Toby, the dog managed to avoid them and hit every goat using his paws, including the Hover Goat 3000.

"Quack…" Buck said in surprise.

"Say hello to my little friend. Banana Slam-a!" DK said pulling out his coconut gun.

After a time, he returned to his regular form.

*ENDS*

"Well, it was good while it lasted." Kernel Corn said. Then the team felt a tremor.

"What was that?" Diddy asked.

"Uh-oh…" Dave gulped.

"This is not good." Popo said.

"It's the Zombot 2.0 and a mechanized oversized turtle too." Penny said.

Then everyone saw the same Zombot 2.0 who was responsible to force to run the plants from their home and the same Mecha-Bowser.

"Oh… Mama Mia…" Luigi said.

"Listen pesky plants, your time is up!" E. Zomboss said.

"You have something to say Super Mario Brothers?" Bowser said in his robot.

"Let's a go!" Winged Mario said.

*BRAINIAC MANIAC – BY GAMETAL (PLANTS VS ZOMBIES)*

The Zombot 2.0 fired an electro purple sphere from its mouth as Mecha-Bowser fired a big fireball from its mouth. But they luckily avoided the attacks.

"That was too close." DK said.

"Me and Yoshi will take care of Mecha Bowser." Winged Mario said as he returns in his regular form and rides Winged Yoshi.

"Let us help you, Mario." Caleb said with Mew and Mario nodded.

"You will need transport too." Mew said and transformed in a metallic Pokémon called Metagross.

"We will settle score against Zomboss." Toxic Citron said.

"Me and the Ice Climbers will take care of the remaining zombies in the ground." Veemon said.

"Now let's end this battle." Caleb said riding Mew transformed in Metagross.

"Here I go!" Mario said and transformed in his Fire Form.

Then the Hero of Balance and the red plumber flew at Mecha-Bowser who starts unleashing fire at the quartet but Caleb casted Water and realizes an Hydro Strike Raid to get rid of the flames and Fire Mario launched fireballs from his Keyblade at the robot doing damage but Mecha-Bowser shoots fireballs at the quartet but they managed to avoid the attack, then Caleb fires light and dark shots at Mecha-Bowser which unleashes more fire.

"Psychic!" Metagross said making backfire the fire into Mecha Bowser.

"What was that!?" Bowser exclaimed.

"That was one of the moves from my Mew." Caleb said.

"Then deal with this!" Bowser said as Mecha-Bowser fired Bullet Bills from its chest.

But Fire Mario and Winged Yoshi fired fireballs and Caleb casts the Fire Spell at the incoming Bullet Bill and destroyed them. Metagross used Iron Head into the head of Mecha-Bowser, Caleb jumps and realizes Ars Arcanum followed by a Thunder spell, then Fire Mario jumps and realizes an Aerial Slam into the robot. Mecha-Bowser retaliates with more flames.

"Reflect!" Caleb casts the reflect spell returning the attack back at the mechanized Bowser.

"Flash Canon!" Metagross fired a silver beam that which hits Mecha-Bowser.

"Here I come!" Caleb jumped and stabbed one Keyblade in Mecha-Bowser, then he stands in the stabbed Keyblade and starts to slash Mecha-Bowser but after enough attacks the Koopa robot sends him off, but he landed in Metagross.

"Are you okay?" Metagross asked.

"Yeah, thanks." Caleb said.

Mecha-Bowser fires fireballs at the quartet but Caleb realizes the Hydro Strike Raid to cancel the flame breath, then he fires light and dark shots dealing damage in Mecha-Bowser, but it retaliates with more Bullet Bills, but they were exploded by the fireballs from Fire Mario and Winged Yoshi.

"My turn! Freeze!" Caleb said and casts the Ice Spell to freeze the mouth of Mecha-Bowser.

"This is the chance to use a super move!" Winged Yoshi said.

"Alright, Mew! Use Hyper Beam!" Caleb said.

"Hyper Beam!" Mew transformed in Metagross fired a pink beam that which caused a lot of damage in Mecha-Bowser.

"Ugh… Not again!" Bowser exclaimed.

Mecha-Bowser starts to malfunction and finally explodes making the head blasts off to the sky with Bowser screaming in the distance.

"Bowser is out of the battle." Caleb said.

"Now let's help the others." Fire Mario said and Caleb nodded. Metagross turned back at Mew and they go face Zombot 2.0.

"Woah…!" Toad and Toadette exclaimed how Zombot 2.0 was about to stomp them with one hand.

"Quickly! Push the button for emergencies!" E. Gadd called them.

Both mushrooms pushed the buttons and they escaped of the mechs and those mechs self-destructed and avoiding being stomped by Zomboss.

"That was too close…" Toadette sighed in relief.

"Yeah…" Toad nodded.

"You won't never will have a chance against my robot!" E. Zomboss said as his Zombot grabbed a normal camper ready to throw at them.

"Bombs away!" Caleb said throwing a bomb that which exploded the camper in the hand of the Zombot.

"Who did that!?" E. Zomboss demanded.

"It was me, Brainiac Maniac!" Caleb said.

"Why you!?" E. Zomboss said angered.

"The robot still being strong!" Petrified Cactus said.

"Listen me, when the Zombot 2.0 kneels to the ground we must hit it in the head. When he fires a fire, ice, electro or toxic sphere, we must dodge the attack." C-800 said.

"You won't win the war!" E. Zomboss said.

The Zombot get up and starts to put some zombies, but every of them were defeated by the heroes, when Zomboss down its head, the heroes started to fire at the head of the Zombot 2.0, until he fires a fireball, but it was blocked by an Hydro Pump from Mew. The Zombot stands up again and puts more zombies, including a Gargantuar but he doesn't have a chance, specially against DK. The Zombot kneels again who received shots from the heroes, then he fires and ice ball that which was destroyed by a Fire Blast from Mew.

"They're advancing with all!" E. Zomboss said grabbing his head.

Then he desperately puts more zombies, but they were defeated easily by the heroes. The robot kneels again and receives damage again, but he fires a toxic sphere, but Mew used Psychic making backfire the attack in the Zombot 2.0 who starts to crack and malfunctioning.

"We're beating him!" Fire Pea said.

"Don't count with that! The robot has second weak point but isn't here!" E. Zomboss. Then Caleb analyzes the robot.

"The robot must have a weak point inside!" Caleb said.

"Only there is one entry in the back on the Zombot 2.0." C-800 said.

"I can transform into a Joltik for make me little and enter easily in the robot. Then inside of the robot I'll transform in Electrode and use Explosion for destroy the reactor and the Zombot 2.0." Mew said.

"Then let me carry you. I'll climb in the back of the robot, meanwhile the others will distract him." Feline Nana said.

"Are you sure Nana?" Feline Popo asked.

"Yeah, don't worry about me." Feline Nana said blushing.

"Ok, just be careful." Feline Popo said blushing and she nodded.

"Let's go." Mew said and transformed into a Pokémon like little yellow bug called Joltik and jumps into Feline Nana.

"It's time for distract the Zombot 2.0." Oak said.

"I am Grump!" Grump said and they nodded.

"Go Nana! You too Mew!" Caleb said.

Then the heroes continued dealing with the zombies summoned by Zomboss. Then Feline Nana runs in four paws and climbs into the robot by the back.

"Do it Mew!" Feline Nana said.

"Got it!" Joltik said and jumped in the hole and entered into the robot.

Inside of the robot, Joltik continued jumping until he identifies a green glowing reactor and the rare module 237-XB. Then Joltik reverts back in Mew and transforms into a Pokémon like fake Pokéball called Electrode.

"It's time for an Explosion!" Electrode said as he starts to glow red.

Back in the outside, with Zomboss.

"Now it's time for the definitive weapon!" E. Zomboss said until a warning message appears and shows a screen about Electrode going to explode in the reactor, then he gasped in shock and fear. "What!? That weird creature is going to explode… NOOO!"

E. Zomboss terrified and Electrode realizes his movement that which destroyed the entire robot, leaving only the head in the ground.

*ENDS*

"That was all?" Snapdragon asked.

"I think so." Caleb said returning in his regular, then Mew appears with twirls in his eyes.

"Ugh…" Mew said dizzy.

"Are you okay, Mew?" Caleb asked him.

"Good as the rain…" Mew said.

"Look." Power Chomper said. Then they noticed E. Zomboss waving a white flag.

"Ok, you all win the war. We give up." E. Zomboss said.

"We did it!" Fire Pea said.

Then the heroes cheered their victory. They also returned at their regular forms.

"Look." Rose said pointing at the pot from the future.

"The pot is being cleaned." Luigi said.

"That means that we changed future." Mario said.

"I appreciate your help Mario Brothers. Now I will return to my home, but soon I'll be back." C-800 said and teleports.

"Hey, I found a note." Toad called them for read a note.

Ok, you win. No more eating brains for us, neither destroy the plants. Now plants can live in their new home, the Mushroom Kingdom. We will back to our home but before to leave, we just want to make music video with you all now. Sincerely, the Zombies.

"Wow!" Mario said.

Then everyone cleaned the place and the entire town was ready to watch the music interpretation. Plants and Toad were watching, including the zombies and Bowser's troops.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Toads! Plants! Zombies! And Koopa Tribe! Today the Sunflower will sing 'Zombies in your lawn', enjoy it!" Caleb said in a microphone and leaves the place.

*ZOMBIES IN YOUR LAWN (PLANTS VS ZOMBIES)*

The music starts.

THE END


EPILOGUE

Star Haven: Millennium's Star Loft

Mario, Meta Knight and Starlow arrived to see the Millennium Star for something important.

"Millennium Star, I found Ven's heart inside of Sora's heart." Mario said.

"Is that so? Then that leaves only Terra." MS said.

"I found him in the Keyblade Graveyard. But we gotta save all three of them." Mario said in determination.

"Hmm… The question is: What does Xehanort intend to do next?" MS said.

"Xehanort? But his two halves are gone. There was Ansem, who commanded the Heartless and Xemnas, who commanded the Nobodies. That includes Apocalymon who tried to destroy the Digidestined and Phantom Metallix who tried to destroy us all, he was defeated by Sonic Prime." Meta Knight explained.

"Correct, those four met their end. However, therein lies exactly our problem." MS said.

"What do you mean, MS?" Starlow asked.

"The destruction of Ansem and Xemnas now guarantees the original Xehanort's reconstruction. Plus, in other version of the Digital World, there's Digimon who belongs at the Demon Lords, his name is Lucemon who has the same dark ambitions as Xehanort. The defeat of Phantom Metallix is making to wake up a dark monster from the past and the identity of the evil being who is working with Lucemon and Xehanort is still unknown." MS explained.

"Huh?" Mario asked.

"Xehanort's heart, once seized by his Heartless half, is now free. And his body, which had become his Nobody, has been vanquished. Both halves will now be returned to the whole. That mysterious monster who is waking up is the same who is defeated 1,000 years ago. And the mysterious being brought Lucemon at the live." MS explained.

"So, that means that Master Xehanort will return?" Starlow asked.

"I'm afraid that is true. And Lucemon is having a plan to destroy the Digidestined, those who wields the crests." MS said.

"And you think that maybe Xehanort is gonna try something?" Mario asked.

"A man like Xehanort will have left many roads open." MS said.

"Well, it doesn't matter what he cooks up. Me, Caleb and Sora, we'll be ready, Riku and the Digidestined, too!" Mario said.

"Yes, they are indeed strong. But not true Keyblade Masters, like you and Caleb." MS said.

"Hmm…" Starlow was thinking.

"Tell me… would a single one of you suffice if what you faced was not a single one of him?" MS asked.

"What!? What do you mean!?" Mario exclaimed in surprise.

"Mario, please summon Sora hither. Riku as well. Caleb will train the Digidestined in their world." MS said.

"Of course, but why?" Mario asked.

"To show us the Mark of Mastery." MS replied.

"It seems that the time has come. I will train Tiff too." Meta Knight said.


Radiant Garden: Computer Room

In the computer room. Some persons, who are members of the Organization XIII, were laying in the ground.

"That was more difficult than I thought, but at least things are on track." A voice said revealing as Xigbar or Braig, wearing the uniform of Radiant Garden. "Lord Xemnas is nowhere to be seen, so that means… the party's already begun, huh?"

"Yes." A mysterious voice said.

"Man, does that Xehanort scare me like nobody's business, the way he can see into minds. And it doesn't help that no one knows what it is that the old man wants. I wonder if even you know what's going on inside your own head." Xigbar said walking around the place. The mysterious person reveals as Young Xehanort wearing a black cloak.

"I will be led… wherever it is I am destined to go." Young Xehanort said.

"Sounds to me like you don't have a clue of your own." Xigbar said.

"Every Keyblade master is bequeathed a Keyblade of his very own. With the passing of time, as you can imagine, more and more Keyblades were forged to be handed down. But of all the Keyblades in existence, Master Xehanort is the most ancient. That is my destiny. But it has yet… to become a reality." Young Xehanort said.

"Hey, it's okay." Xigbar said trying to cheer him. "This is all connected to the ancient Keyblade War, isn't that right? Whatever. I got my hands full with my own plans. So, which poor soul will it be?"

"That person will be Sora, the same that destroyed Ansem." Another person said revealing as Lucemon.

"Tell me blondy, where is she?" Xigbar asked.

"She is busy getting more allies from the past. But I want to meet those Digidestined, especially the wielders of Light and Hope." Lucemon said.


?

In an unknown a dark place, a pair of red glowing eyes appeared.

"It's time for my revenge…" The mysterious monster said.


As I feared but exciting, the monster sealed in the Subspace starts to wake up, like the return of Xehanort and Lucemon, and the presence of Kronika travelling through the time.
