When a part of the land becomes absorbed into the realm of the Subspace, not only can it be seen, it can be felt. The rush of wind in the direction of the explosion, the rumbling of the ground and the sheer feeling of dread and danger looming in the air.
And despite being a robot, the Ancient Minister felt every sensation upon witnessing the explosion take place near the ruins, even though he was miles away from it, floating off of the ground. And knowing the cause of it, he felt himself freeze within the air as memories of the explosions he had witnessed these past few days rushed through his circuited system.
"SACRIFICES ARE NEEDED FOR THE SUBSPACE TO FLOURISH. AND YET...I HAVE WITNESSED SO MANY SO FAR. HOW MUCH MORE OF IT WILL THERE HAVE TO BE?"
Ancient Minister slowly floated away, and the few inches he moved was enough to dodge a light blue arrow shot at him. He looked behind him and saw the angel on the ground, his bow in hand.
"You didn't think you got rid of us that easily, did you?" Pit spoke confidently as the other four heroes joined his side.
"NO. I AM NOT SURPRISED THAT YOU CONTINUE TO FOLLOW ME," He put back on his usual directive when faced with enemies, "BUT I WAS TASKED TO SPREAD THE REALM OF THE SUBSPACE, AND I CANNOT ALLOW YOU TO INTERFERE WITH MY DIRECTIVE."
The Ancient Minister floated away from the heroes and the five of them began to pursue after them. But not long after, the found their path blocked by the strange creatures, ready to keep them distracted. Even though there were many enemies of many species; Shellpods, Feyeshs, Bucculus', Boboras', Mites, Armites, Puppits, Tickens, Primids, Trowlons, Nagagogs, Greaps, Bytans, Spaaks and Roaders. But even with their diversity, the five heroes strength and teamwork allowed them to cut through them with ease and catch up with the Ancient Minister. Sensing them behind him, he turned and launched a laser assault on them, but they were able to feasibly dodge it. But as they neared the Ancient Minister, they found themselves stopped by the R.O.B robots.
"HALT!"
Ancient Minister looked down at the robots, surprised by their appearance, "WHY ARE YOU HERE? I DO NOT RECALL SENDING WORD FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE."
"WE SENSED THE ENEMIES APPROACHING YOU. WE CAME TO ASSIST YOU."
Before Ancient Minister could retort, he felt something latch on below him, and realized that one of the R.O.B robots was latched onto the Subspace bomb he was carrying.
"PLEASE, ALLOW US TO USE THIS."
"I CANNOT. THIS AREA HAS NOT BEEN COMMISSIONED TO BE DRAWN INTO THE SUBSPACE."
"IT IS THE ONLY WAY TO ENSURE YOUR SAFETY FROM THE ENEMIES. PLEASE, ALLOW US."
Even though there was great hesitation, seeing his comrades determination and loyalty made him submit, "VERY WELL," He released the latch holding the bomb, dropping it on the ground, along with the R.O.B robot. Two other R.O.B's approached the sides of the bomb and, with an understanding nod, showed no hesitation in activating the bomb, starting the countdown.
"Mario, we gotta stop them!"
Pushing their way through the robots, Pit and Mario reached the robots attached to the bomb. The tried to separate the robots from the bomb, pulling with all their strength, but the robots didn't move a single inch. They were completely locked into the bomb and no force could possibly separate them. As they realized their efforts were futile, they felt the R.O.B robots grab them and pull them away from the other robots, throwing them to the other three heroes.
"YOUR ATTEMPTS AT RESISTANCE IS FUTILE. THE REALM OF THE SUBSPACE CANNOT BE STOPPED."
Ancient Minister slowly floated away from the area, keeping his eyes locked on the scene and watching as one of the robots waved goodbye to him, until he turned away as the bomb exploded. Though the heroes were able to escape unharmed, with the help of Yoshi and Kirby's warp star, the R.O.B robots were not so fortunate. The force and close proximity to the explosion ripped their bodies apart as they were absorbed into the dark void that stretched through the area.
And while the heroes were filled with rejuvenated determination to continue further, the robot felt a horrid wave of emotions runs through his circuited mind.
"YET ANOTHER SACRIFICE FOR THE SUBSPACE...AND ONE THAT WAS NOT MANDATORY TO OUR MISSION...I CANNOT HELP BUT SENSE THAT THIS MIGHT HAPPEN AGAIN SOON...AND I DREAD SHOULD THAT CIRCUMSTANCE BECOME REALITY..."
