The Annihilator Beam was not called that because it Annihilates enemies...
You see, Light and Dark are known to be exact opposite of each other, yet still with the same energy group. Well, turns out that Light and Dark are matter and antimatter, Light being the matter, Dark being the antimatter. Now, when you put matter and antimatter together... the combined forces go through what's called annihilation. The two energies then destroy each other and create a new force.
You know how Electrons are negative? Well, Electrons have a positive side, too- Positrons. Put them together, and you get a new element through annihilation...
So that is how the Annihilator Beam came about, since it's shots are composed of a mixture of Light and Dark...

Been here since February 2004. It's May 2022 as of writing this. Wish Rich would revive this place. Guess I'm only here for the nostalgia now.
