Chapter 17: The Canyon
As the Starship has landed on the site, right near where Mario and the rest of the gang were. As Lupin III's group teamed up with Mario's group, despite the fact that there were tensions between Simon and Morrigan. The master thief asked them if that is their ship, with Simon saying to him that he has not idea what that even is. Then the ship landed, and out came Pikachu, as he quickly ran over to Link as they both hugged each other, while Samus, Mega Man X, Sailor Venus and Lucas all came out of the ship, as the Sailor Guardian introduced herself, and the same with the other six, as she explained that they are on their side, and the mouse apparently knows them. Then Pikachu ran up to Mario and Link, as the three hugged each other in joy to see that they are all okay.
Both Mario and Link were already glad that Pikachu is safe and sound ever since he was captured by the corrupted Zelda. Lupin III pointed out that now’s not the time for reunions, but instead they should discuss the SCP Foundation, and how the organization could help out them on their survival. He first asked everybody if they have heard about it, to get on the right track. everyone in the group did to an extent, with the exception of Mario, Link and Simon. So then the Master Thief quickly explained about them, and their goals of “securing” the areas not contaminated with Shadow Bugs, “containing” the Shadow Bugs, and “protecting” those who have not been corrupted by the Shadow Bugs. The plumber and the Champion thought that the Foundation was an organization that was dedicated towards good and fighting evil, Simon on the other hand was skeptical about the SCP, wondering if they could be the ones spreading the Shadow Bugs in the first place to gain power over them, as doing so can serve as an excuse. Everyone realized that Simon had a good point, but they can’t know for sure until they actually meet them, as Terra had stated, so they decided that they should try to look for them. The vampire hunter say he can't argue with Terra on her point, admitting that it's good, as with them teaming up with strangers. He would say that they should still be cautious about it, even if they are not behind this mess. Mario just said they should move on before they have to deal with more Shadow Bugs, telling both Terra and Simon they should put the debate aside for now.

As the team of twelve crossed along the canyon, then climbing down to look for any sights of the SCP, they found one Primid. Link shot it down with his arrow, but another one took its place. Then more came along with more members of the Subspace Army. Then armies from all the realities they came into contact all with collectively had arrived on the scene along with many others none of them had encountered at that point. They all soon got outnumbered almost a million to 12. They had to put their hands up as prisoners. Terra and Sailor Venus were taken to one side to be corrupted once again, while the rest were about to be sent to be slaves in their respective worlds that they escaped. From the distance, Ike, Crono and Deedlit were out of the car, and once Deedlit heard from her spirits Sylph and Salamander that there seemed to be 11 people that were about to be captured by the Subspace Army. They all decided hurry to the scene without a second thought, and seeing everyone surrounded, the three jumped off the cliff, and landed perfectly.
The three led right into battle and demolished a fair amount of the soldiers, with Crono taking the charge and once this happened, the rest of the prisoners all joined in. They all managed to destroy only a tiny portion, as more reinforcements came in. By this time, Samus knew they had to retreat, as this is their only chance to do so. She quickly called her Starship, and told everyone to grab on, as she used her Grapple Beam to attach herself to the ship. Everyone all grabbed onto her legs, as one after the other grabbed the legs of others, with Homer being the last to grab on. While the ship was getting out, Homer was already shaking his legs constantly while yelling to prevent any of the soldiers from grabbing onto his. Samus was able to pull everyone up despite the weight that everyone held, and the ship closed it's door as blasted off into another reality to escape the world that used to be the World of Trophies, now has been corrupted entirely by Subspace, as the bubble from Galleom's Subspace Bubble grew to engulf the reality.
