GCB Fanfics: Vs. Mode

Vs. Mode - Pac-Man vs. Kefka


"We're back, and it's about time to start the third match of the day. Wario is getting treatment at Mushroom Hospital, but Shadow refused to even see a doctor after being piledriven into the floor. Both fighters though should be just fine." Pac-Man's classic starting jingle and the crowd's cheers signal the yellow icon's arrival. The yellow sphere with eyes, gloves, boots, and a mouth jogs at a steady pace before he hops into the ring. "What more could be said about one of the oldest characters there is? Pac-Man is famous for his constant quest of gobbling as many pellets as he can while evading his ghostly pursuers."

Kefka's Theme plays over the loudspeakers as the dark one himself appears, to some derisive boos from the spectators. "Kefka is the antagonist member of the sixth squad of Double-F. Don't be fooled by the way he looks, this guy has many powerful spells at his fingertips, and he is verifiably insane." Kefka scans the crowd before his gaze rests on the Sonic Team. The clown gives them a big smile as he steps up onto the stone circle.

Shadow is holding an ice pack to his head, while sitting with the rest of his team in the stands, but he turns his head in surprise as his teammates are filled with rage. Sonic, Knuckles, and even Tails are gritting their teeth as they clench and unclench their fists. "What's the matter with you three?" The black hedgehog's eyes widen as a thought comes to him. "Don't tell me you actually know that clown?!"

Sonic looks over with the angriest expression Shadow has ever seen from his blue counterpart. "Let's just say that we would all like a piece of him, for personal reasons." Shadow blinks in surprise before he goes back to viewing the ring, all the while thinking of what could have happened between the clown and his teammates.

Brock analyzes, "A yellow sphere with arms and legs is going up against an insane clown with even more insane magical powers. Kefka should take this match easily."

"Players, to your positions. Player 1, ready?" Pac-Man gives Ref-Bot the A-OK sign. "Player 2, ready?"

"I'm ready!" Kefka says, laughing afterwards.

"Combatants ready. Raise force barriers. Match 19, Pac-Man vs. Kefka. 3, 2, 1... fight!"

"Power's on; game's started! Kefka laughs at Pac-Man, but the yellow guy reaches behind his round body to get a pouch. The clown looks intrigued as Pac-Man reaches in and pops a Power Pellet in his mouth! Pac-Man jogs at a steady pace towards Kefka, who has just turned blue!" Brock comments in surprise.

"That's pretty much the extent of Pac-Man's power. He can safely eat any opponent of his that has turned blue through the wondrously magical Power Pellets."

"Despite being blue, Kefka backs away and tries to execute Fallen One! The force barriers will certainly be tested from this clown's strength, but Pac-Man was completely unaffected by Kefka's attack!"

"Pac-Man is also invincible while a Power Pellet is in effect, but it looks like the useful item is wearing off. Kefka flashes between blue and white before finally returning to his original color. Seeing his chance, Kefka tries his attack again, but Pac-Man stuffs down another Power Pellet, just in time. This battle could come down to whether Pac-Man runs out of Power Pellets or Kefka runs out of MP first."

"The chase continues as Pac-Man jogs and takes another Power Pellet, while Kefka still tries to find a way to hurt Pac-Man through his invincibility. None of his attacks are working though, and it looks like he hates being blue."

"Pac-Man eats a fourth Power Pellet. Will he ever catch up with Kefka to give the finishing chomp? Kefka has stopped attacking and is just running for his life. The effects wear off again, but it looks like Pac-Man is out of Power Pellets!"

"This looks really bad for Pac-Man. Kefka is now slowly stalking towards his defenseless opponent, who is backing away with every step Kefka takes. Pac-Man tries to make a run for it, but Kefka catches up and- NO!"

Lucca screams in horror, as Pac-Man is literally broken like an expensive vase from the sheer strength of Kefka's strike. Ref-Bot pauses before Pac-Man's broken body before he counts to a silent stadium. The veteran ref has seen many sickening things in his career, but this has to be one of the worst. Unfortunately, he has to do his job. Ref-Bot finally reaches ten and raises the red flag.

"Winner: Kefka."

Loud boos and thrown food rain down from the spectators as Kefka walks off, blowing kisses to the crowd. "Kefka may have won the match, but he certainly didn't win anymore fans with what he just did. Mushroom doctors rush in as quickly as possible to pick up all the pieces and transport them to the emergency center."

"I think I need to throw up," Lucca nauseously says before she clamps a hand over her mouth and runs out.

"We'll take a break. I think we all need it. Don't worry; I don't think it's as bad as it looks." Brock takes another look before he weakly adds, "Of course, I could be wrong." He tries to think of something else to say, but he fails. "Um... we'll be right back."
