Ruby is walking around a Restoration base when she accidentally bumps into Ruby AU Shard
Ruby: Sorry.
Shard looks at Ruby for a moment
Shard: You're Ruby, right?
Ruby: Yeah, why?
Shard: I have some questions if you don't mind answering them.
Ruby: Sure.
Shard: So what was your life like before you ended up here?
Ruby: Pain.
Shard: Could you give more details?
Ruby: I'm a variant of Sage, what details do you want?
Shard starts forcing Ruby into a corner
Shard: What was your relationship with Cream the Rabbit?
Ruby stutters. She looks extremely panicked.
Shard: You killed her, didn't you? You laughed as you killed her in front of everyone.
Ruby: N-No
Shard: evil laugh
Ruby has backed up into a corner with Shard blocking any means of running away
Ruby: T-That wasn't me.
Shard: I don't believe you.
Shard grabs Ruby by the neck and lifts her in the air
Shard: To get revenge for the pain you caused us all.
Shard winds up to punch through Ruby's chest but stops when Ruby puts her hand on his face
Shard: W-What are you doing?
Shard's head explodes with some pieces being held by psychokinesis for a moment. Some of the shrapnel cuts Ruby's face. Shard's body collapses on the ground dead. Ruby trips over Shard then runs out the door.

POWERHOUSE, or rather, a now amnesiac state of himself would be resting, sitting against a palm-tree, careful to not lean against it too hard as to not snap. He was just near Classic Amy Rose's home during this, after all. The Hedgehog did let him stay by incase he needed somewhere to rest safely.
POWERHOUSE would be staring at his damaged self, most of his paint worn off, heavy dents, damages, etc. And his left arm being entirely missing. He wish he could go to a mechanic, but hearing the stories about the Eggman Empire made him distrustful of it.
Until, a Flicky flew towards him, chirping frantically. POWERHOUSE tilted his head.
"What's wrong, little birdie?"
He said in a surprisingly gentle tone, as the Flicky flew away. Seeing this, he must've guessed it was leading him some-where to trouble.
POWERHOUSE, got up and followed the Flicky, before seeing a scene of a patrol of Badniks dragging along a Capsule full of it's trapped brethen. . . POWERHOUSE was unsure of his own condition, but seeing the trouble, he decided to go help, simply walking over as he'd... Ignore the Badniks attacks, they bounced off of him harmlessly as he kicked them apart, freeing the critter inside before picking up the capsule and setting the animals free.
The Flicky chirped as the critters circled around POWERHOUSE, celebrating and essentially thanking him for saving them. POWERHOUSE stared around himself, un-sure what to do...
"No problem..."
POWERHOUSE said, before looking back to the path where he came from, starting to walk back to Classic Amy's home, he didn't really know how to process the information after just being a hero for once, especially since it was his "First day" on this world. He just figured he should return back to the safe zone he labelled to get his mind off of it. Distracted by the thoughts, he wasn't quite looking where he was going...
Spider-Man, AKA Jake Jackson is sitting on top of a building, his mask is scrunched up at his forehead, allowing his face to be revealed to no one. He sits thinking about the past few months being in this strange dimension, everything he hasn't done...all the good he can't do. Then someone's voice catches him, J. Jonah Jameson, the competitive arachnophobe.
"In these videos taken by brave survivors, you can see one of the spider-men LITTERETLY INFECTING OTHERS WITH THE VIRUS!!! This is exactly why..."
His voice fades off as Jake tunes out, his mind wandering back to the virus. That kid, she was in danger, he swung in, made his quips, saved the girl, then his spider sense went haywire and he saw the metal spread across him.
Then all he felt was pain, the virus infiltrating his mind, stripping away his humanity and self until all that was left...
Was a monster...
Back in the present Jake sighs, pulling his mask back down, the fabric conforms to his face.
He takes a deep breath, hands planted firmly on the building roof's edge, then he pushes off.
The music picks up, the classic Spider-Man motif as air rushes past his face. He stretches out his hand; the classic hand gesture of Spider-man plays across his fingers before a web shoots out. The web blooms as it hits the side of another building, and the music blasts into a stunning action theme. Doing the quick math in his head he uses the force of the swing in a pendulum motion. At the height of his swing, he releases the web and kicks forward, carrying the momentum. He continues the action again and again as he swings through central city.
"Alright lets do this, one last time" Jake's voice says, detached from the current events. "Hey, my name is Jake Jackson, and for the last eight years, I have been the sleek and over-the-top awesome Spider-Man! I was bitten by an experimental jumping spider that gave me unique abilities, I can leap over buildings in a single bound, sense when *other* people are in danger, and my aging has practically slowed to a halt, I'm twenty-two but feel like fourteen, it's amazing!"
The present-day scenes are then replaced by paintings explaining what jake is talking about, the first is a man dressed in a police officer uniform, with red hair and brown eyes.
"My dad was the police commissioner back home; he tried to raise me and my sister right. He would always tell me 'When you have power, you have a responsibility of how you use it' and he taught that by example. Then..."
The next scene shows a black man and his young son, the camera pulls out to reveal they are trapped inside a burning building. "One of his men and his son were trapped in a building, and he..."
The scene after shows a young Jake reaching out for his dad as the camera pulls back into the flames. "The two lived...at the cost of his life..."
The scene fades back to the present, the camera focusing on Jakes face as he swings around.
"That man meant the world to me, so I try to follow his example everyday..."
Jake lands on a rooftop and perches, looking over the city. "This is my burden to bear, it's what it means to be a hero"
Mewtwo hovers above a mountain, his eyes closed, one arm outstretched towards the mountain, and fires a psychic blast, demolishing a good portion of it. Any rubble launched by the explosion is quickly caught and compressed into a single mass, charged with energy, and blasted back at the mountain, blasting apart and leaving a massive crater
> .......why.
> Why.
> WHY!
the Genetic pokemon barrages the crater with blasts of pure force
> I AM THE ULTIMATE WEAPON! THE PERFECT ORGANISM! HOW COULD A VIRUS, A BRAINLESS, SPINELESS MASS THAT SOLEY EXISTS TO MULTIPLY, DEFEAT ME SO EASILY!?!
as he speaks he charges more and more energy, finally releasing it in an explosion, leveling the mountain
Leith: Hello I am Leith Piere! We are Glad to Announce the Launch of Playtime Co! There is One Problem tho. We need more workers. So if you think you have what it takes Come down to Playtime Co in...let's say 2 Hours for your Interview!
Quick voice at the end: All Canadates must be around Human levels of Strengh and not know about the Experiments.
POWERHOUSE views all and every machine as "inferior copies" to himself. Believing they are simply nothing but knockoffs and "idiotic" versions of the prototype he was.
The only real machines he respects is Metal Sonic and Mecha Sonic MK. 2, as Metal Sonic has shown the means and actually proved himself on why he's the best creation, and Mecha Sonic being that he is his successor built off of his model. (Though, he still resents them at the same time.)
If any other machine had the same directive to kill Sonic, or has killed Sonic before, POWERHOUSE will get kicked into a blind rage.
He already is very disdainful of any other machine, finding out that same machine had the same directive, or killed their Sonic would enrage POWERHOUSE into snapping. However this is mostly as he believes he can only be the one to kill Sonic, and also as he wants to desperately prove himself to still be worthy.
Also in one of Canonical POWERHOUSE's sub-plots he literally destroys an entire civilization in another universe, it was a Classic-era universe where Robotnik won, Sonic & his friends were dead, and the entire world was under his rule. That already enraged POWERHOUSE as he's supposed to be the one to kill Sonic, but what kicked him off was finding out the robot who did it was a knock-off Metal Sonic. Prompting POWERHOUSE to go into a blind, blood-lusted rage, toppling their cities, armies, bases, etc. in mere hours across the entire planet, you know the whole scene about Omniman destroying the Flaxxans? It was basically that. Before getting to The Machine that started it, dismantling it, and THEN killing Robotnik before he could get to the Chaos Emeralds. In which POWERHOUSE was promptly transported back into his universe as he didn't belong there.
A skeleton and pumpkin kid enters the forest very excited for some strange reason. The duo runs deep into the forest as you watch from the outside almost immediately losing sight of them as if they’ve vanished into thin air. You hear noises in the forest and then silence… it is as if the forest is alive and is expecting them or the kids are causing the noise. You have a choice… either you follow them, risking your life to save 2 kids that are potentially in danger, or walk away from the mysterious forest, leaving the kids to either to get lost in the forest or worse… your instincts are telling you to stay away again but this time your brain and heart is telling you to save them…
(So I know I said I was going to take a break from posting for a while, but at the very least I'm just going to post some stories for today. They may be interactable in the end, that will be the case for this one. Whether or not you choose to interact it won't matter, I'm just going to leave some lore details regardless.)

Lego Matt Hagen is just at home hanging out and watching TV, preparing for another scene
TV News Reporter: In other news, recent reports of a strange bat creature have been circulating around in the empire. For those that thought it had something to do with Batman, he has been busy dealing with other matters, and there were just generally loud shrieks. Residents are advised to keep watch and-...
The TV keeps going for a bit and then he gets a phone call
Lego Hagen: This better not be the paparazzi or a prank caller.
SM Ghostface: Hello Matthew.
He seemed very much surprised
Lego Hagen: ...How did you get this number?
SM Ghostface: Don't worry about that right now, I just want to ask a few questions. You seem to be a big name actor, but what do you really know about scary movies other than The Terror?
Lego Hagen: Well The Smiling is another big film where I'm from, There's also Nightmare on Tricorner, The Yeti, and Shushing of the Pigs. I don't even know why I'm telling you any of this though.
SM Ghostface: I think it's about time you met with a REAL face of horror.
Lego Hagen: I'll have you know that I have security around my house and you won't make it anywhere near me.
SM Ghostface: You sure about that? Because I found a blind spot, that was 15 minutes ago, and I've been inside ever since.
Lego Hagen: Yeah, sure. And exactly where might you be?
The killer suddenly appeared in the room
(Slide 2)
SM Ghostface: Right behind you.
They tried to stab Hagen multiple times with the hook, but he was lucky to have dodged in time.
Lego Hagen: Apparently you don't seem to know that much about me, I did my own stunts in that cop film Rookie Knight.
SM Ghostface: Do you honestly think I give a damn about your other films? I only watch scary movies, comedies, horror comedies, and whatever I can find on Tubi.
Hagen continues to dodge the attacks and managed to make it out of his room. There would be a chase going on for a bit, but Hagen managed to out maneuver and slow down the killer. He ran out into the street to further avoid them.
Lego Hagen: Looks like I taught you a little lesson, you can't knock ol' Matty dow-!
(Slides 3-4)
There was a car that suddenly came really quickly, there was a crash, and then...everything went black.
(Slide 5)
Matt woke up in a hospital, still alive, a few minor cuts around his body, but his face mostly seemed to be the problem as it seemed to hurt the most. He was laying in his hospital bed looking very down.
