Daemon Rising with a...SMASH![]
Ness was found training at Onett with Mewtwo converting his PSI energy into healing energy with his PSI magnet. That was till Samus interrupted their session, on account on protecting the Smash System and the entire Net from Daemon and her enslaving infection. Ness took on the challenge and rode the Falcon Flyer with Capt. Falcon.
They became separated from the other Smashers as they were assaulted by the Guardian Fleet. The Flyer had to bail into the Super Computer, and he and Falcon fought against the scary Sentries. He used everything he had, including his PSI techniques and wielding a baseball bat and yoyo. They were eventually successful, till Daecon ambushed the duo. Ness was able to master the PSI Magnet technique as he absorbed the staff's projectiles. Till the prime guardian decided to infect them. They both bailed aboard the Blue Falcon, then lifted off on the Falcon Flyer. They eventually made it to Final Destination and gave Mewtwo and Samus a lift, till it crashlanded in Mainframe. During the ceremony, though, Falcon was able to make repairs, and so they headed home.
