Author's Note ********** The following story uses actual people I know. You see, everyday at school, my buddies and I gather in a classroom to engage in fierce melee bashing. I've been running this "gameroom" since freshman year, and we get at least 16 people in a day. Anyway, this story focuses on me and six other players (sorry everyone, can't fit you all in! ^_^;) It tells the tale of our journey from the classroom of D108 to a surreal universe we only thought existed in our thoughts. That universe ? That of Super Smash Bros.. We take the form of the character we use in our daily school bouts. These characters belong to Nintendo.. yada yada you get the point. As for us.. I wouldn't know who we belong to.. cause we're actual people here. Well. I guess I'll take ownership ^_^. Here's the players:
SEA: That would be me of course. I take form of Fox McCloud from Star Fox. I'm the cocky leader, and, not to brag, I'm the strongest player.
SAM: This arrogant, yet still cool guy is Roy from the unknown Fire Emblem series (I would make him Peach.. but that can be bad.. too girly)
CAL: A causal gamer that doesn't speak much, but can have a lot to say when he does. Marth (Fire Emblem again) is his alter ego.
JESS: another ambitious, young gamer who admires me a lot (don't tell him I said that) He would be Megaman, but Marth will do.
HUWE: My happy go lucky little sister who uses Zelda (Umm.., Zelda series) to fight. Huwe is her nickname. everyone really calls her that.. don't ask.. ^_^;
ERIC: A quiet guy who is just as experienced in gaming as I am..., maybe more so. He has loads of potential with Shiek (from Zelda..., yeah I know.. Shiek is a chick.. don't ask).
HIEU: Hieu is a polite fellow who uses Link (Zelda series) and has a tendency to take out people just at the right time.. for him anyway.
The story will be told through my eyes, unless I'm not there. Then I'll shift to the third person. Also, there are some things in the story that are not in Super Smash Bros Melee.. this takes place before the game does. And sometimes I will refer to button commands when attacking. I'll do this until I get my guide back which lists all of the attacks names. Alright that should do it! I intend to have this updated at a really fast pace.

CHAPTER ONE: The Beginning
-------------------------------------------------
The universe. It's full of so many mysteries and speculations. No one can comprehend how far the stars go, how deep space is, or if there are different dimensions that lead to new worlds that are beyond human imagination. I sat on the edge of a flat platform, looking up at a sky that was filled with new worlds to explore. Normally I would uncover these new dimensions, but my mind was polluted with memories of the past few days. that is ... if a day even went by. It all happened too fast, it happened too suddenly, it happened right when I least expected it to. My life is now forever changed.
My deepest wish has been granted, and I should enjoy it to the fullest. But I can't help but wonder. What now? What about everyone else? Are they ok? Do they know I exist? Or has my mind shifted into two, creating a whole different person? " No," I quietly whispered to myself. I sat there for what seemed to be an eternity with a blank stare on my new face. During this time, I began to recall of the insanely intense adventure that has forever changed my life, my existence, and has thrusted me with the fate of the universe itself.
**********************
I sat on my wooden chair, typing and clicking as fast as my fingers would allow me to. I had to keep the noise level down and the lights off, which further hurt my blood shot dark brown eyes. It was bad enough it was a quarter till two o'clock in the morning. But I was so close. I had to finish. I have worked months and months on this, and I was just a few seconds away from completing my biggest project. Sure I had a 10000 word paper due today, but this was way more important to me than 10% of my grade. How dumb I can be.
"Almost done." I told myself. Right at that moment, I heard soft thuds on the hallway's battered white carpet. " Crap," I thought. "I have to save!" As quietly and as quickly as I could, pressed down the button command to save, then turned of my computer screen. It made a loud CLICK sound as I tried to cover up the red light of the Gamecube with a towel. The door creaked slowly and I thought to myself, " better not be mom or I'm toast." I paused for a moment as I stared at my 14 year old sister.
"Damn it Huwee," I told her. " Can you at least knock so I know it's you?" She only shook her head and said," you freak, it's almost two and your working on your dingy "project" when you know you should either be in bed or be working on that paper." I just ignored her and turned the computer screen back on and continues to work.
"Just got to put on the finishing touches sis," I whispered softly. I leaned back in my chair with a sense of joy, a sense of accomplishment. I tried to hold back my maniacal laugh as best as I could. It was finished. I had done the impossible. I let out a small chuckle, a chuckle that Huwee is familiar with. "So your actually finished," she said in amusement. "Hehehehe," I mumbled, "you bet." "And your report?" Huwee quietly asked.
"Screw that!" I said with great excitement, "I need to test this out.! Hey, how about you be. my guinea huwee?" She just rolled her eyes and said, " You should go just give it a rest. You shouldn't be up doing.,"
"Shouldn't you be in bed? Jst what exactly are you doing up?" I tossed her a controller. "Ah, no matter! come on," I said as I inserted a memory card that would grant me unlimited power. I restarted my Gamecube and shut down my operations on my computer. " Trust me Huwee, this will only take a second."
"It's probably going to be all cheap and ghetto," Huwee teased. She sat down next to my bed and waited for the game to load.
The start up screen quickly popped up. I had a firm grip on the controller, holding in my joy. I set up the match to one stock with no time limit. She picked her character, Zelda as always. I moved my cursor on an empty space next to Roy. I quickly entered a button combination. I tapped up, down, left, right, then pressed A and Start simultaneously. Suddenly, a familiar blue hedgehog appeared in my selection box.
"What if it freezes?" Huwee asked. " Trust me, I've put to much work into this." I assured her.
The stage was set. Corneria. "Ready..3.2.1...GO!" the game announced. Sonic and Zelda were facing each other on the mighty Great Fox. Sonic immediately began a Spin Dash, a trademark attack he has mastered. Sonic dashed towards at Zelda without charging the Spin Dash, and it hit her before she could begin the match. It landed a healthy 12% on her as she flew up in the air. Sonic instantly jumped right at her, and before Zelda could try an evasive air dodge, Sonic used an array of unique air attacks, attacks that were programmed to keep her juggled in the air. He finished the combo with another staple move, the Homing Attack. It hit her dead on with great impact. Her percentage total was tallied at 82%. Zelda floated down to the nose of the ship, while Sonic landed gracefully straight across from her.
"Having fun?" I taunted. Huwee said nothing and tried a Din's Fire (forward B). "Sweet," I thought. Sonic stood his ground , waiting for the flame to attack him. Huwee expected him to block it as Zelda waived her hand and ignited the flame, causing it to create a miniature explosion. The fireball made a direct it, or so it seemed. Sonic was covered in a fiery aura.
" Wh.Wha? How did that happen?!" Huwee complained in utter shock. "That's the beauty of Sonic's Forward B Insta Shield technique." I began. " Normally, it would give him a sound barrier that would protect him from any attack for a spilt second, just like in Sonic 3. But I added a little twist to it. If he uses it protect himself from certain attacks, it will absorb the element and create a Fire, Electric, or a Water Shield, depending on the attack. Now I'm not affected by your fire attacks anymore." Huwee just mumbled, " Well that's cheap."
"Let me show you what else I can do," I chuckled. Just then, Sonic charged towards Zelda with a charging A attack. He slip his right leg down on the ground to try and trip her. Zelda rolled back to saftey. Sonic then used a new ability he gained with his shield. Forward B became an attack called the Flare Dash. Sonic leaped and spun himself into a ball of fire. He dashed at the same speed as the Homing Attack he used earlier. It was too fast and too unexpected for Zelda to make a move. She was engulfed in flames as the attack connected and few of the stage at 104%. "GAME," the announcer declared. "This game's winner is...Sonic!" The game said as Sonic did his Sonic Adventure victory pose with the classic Sonic 3 level clear tune playing in the background.
I turned off the Gamecube and turned my eyes towards Huwee, who stood there in awe and disgust. "Whoa. that was cool! But.. it was too cheap! You just had to go in and overpower him, huh?" I yawned and rolled up my controllers, packing it for school. " Hey, that's how the fight would really go if Sonic was real!"
"But he's too powerful.. and moves so fast! I couldn't dodge you or anything!" I rested my head on my pillow and said, " Whatever, that's just how it is. It's not like I intentionally programmed him to be that way, he's just that strong. Man.. I can't wait to try this out on everyone!"
"Your not actually going to do that are you?" Huwee asked in a concerned tone. "Why not?" I asked. "Well, you know Sam," she began. " I dunno, I just don't think you should do it, that's all." She rubbed her eyes as she slowly began to walk out the door. " Well, do whatever." "Hmm.. either way I'll still win." I said in my usual cocky voice. " Now go on," I said as I waived my hand back and forth at her. "Go to bed."
*****Elsewhere*******
A figure standing at 3'7 entered into a large control room, filled with monitors and a egg shaped man eagerly waiting next in the center of the room.
"I got it," said the cloaked figure. He threw a Master Emerald into a machine that clanged onto it and set itself near a reactor near the main controls of the craft.
"Excellent!" said Eggman. "Now all we need is one more. Just one more and I will be able to put my ultimate plan into motion! With the another Master Emerald, we will.." The mysterious figure leaned next to a mainframe and sighed. "So where is it?"
"I'm am searching it for it at this moment." replied Eggman. "The information should be processed by now." He walked to a touch screen monitor, and a holographic map of space was projected in front of him. He noticed an gap in the far left of the map. "WHAT DID YOU DO?" he furiously asked. A vein was sticking out of his bald head as he waited for a reply. "Oh.." chuckled the figure, " I ran into some. bumps along the road." Eggman bounced up and down in rage. "THAT ACCURSED HEDGEHOG? HOW?!" "Relax," he replied, " you don't have to worry about him. He's gone, just like the rest of that dimension."
"DID YOU EVEN BOTHER TO CONSIDER THE POSSIBILITY THAT THE OTHER EMERALD WAS.." Eggman wanted to strangle the young mercenary. If that emerald wasn't found, then months and months of research and preparation for his most devious plot ever would come to a permanent halt. "Trust me, I would have know," assured the figure. "For your sake you better!" Eggman said a little releieved. "Whatever, just hurry up and find the next one."
Eggman simply ignored him and began to process a shift in time on the map. The universe shown on the map began to animate. It showed this "dimension" explode with little traces left. An emerald shockwav began to make it's way on unsuspecting universes, causing outrageous reactions. Some began to collide, creating total chaos for anything around them. Others stopped in their tracks and created worm holes to other realities. But the was one universe that began to emit strong energy readings. Small galaxies within it began to give off a small essence, which formed itself in the center of this particular universe. They beging to swirl, as if a dark hole was consuming them. A bright flash revealed a clutter of floating worm holes, all coexisting in a small galaxy.
"Well I hope your proud of yourself," Eggman congratulated the figure. " In a few hours, you will have created a whole new reality. "Really now? I should get a Nobel for that. So do you want me to head there or not?"
"My my my, never in anyone's wildest dreams did I imagine something like this formed. Maybe your help isn't necessary for this task. I don't think your capable of it." "Try me," groaned the mercenary. "No no your body can't sustain it. Your not compatible, you won't last," Eggman said. " This is a very unusual place, it's like nothing I have ever seen before. No, we need an old friend of mine." He slowly walked to a monitor and began to make contact with this "friend". "So I'm not good enough?" asked the lone mercenary. "Believe me rodent," replied Eggman. "I know who is, and it can save us a lot of time. Besides, I think you've earned a little time off."
***Back to Reality**********
I quickly shoved my folder into my already crammed backpack. My Gamecube was safely nestled in it, along with my school accommodations. I rushed out of my class, just 8 minutes after the lunch bell rang.
"Late again!" I thought to myself. I was stuck for the first few minutes of lunch due to another one of Mr. V's tests. It walked as fast as I could through the afternoon traffic of people, hurrying to lunch lines or the parking lot. Room D108 wasn't far from my A.P. Composition class. I slowly opened the door and walked in, with my head up high in the air.
A large, Asian guy sat on his usual table and scorned, " Finally you bum! Come over here so I can sit on you!" I began to set up without saying a word. A crowd of 17 people sighed as I did so, finally getting a shot to earn some KO's in Super Smash Bros Melee.
"Sometimes you people piss me off," I thought as I ignored the typical question of "what took you so long?" Hieu, who knew my dilemma, politely asked ," So, can we do teams today?" A guy who was about a little taller than I was answered that for me.
"YES! Sam and I will beat you all!" A quick reply was made from a good friend of mine. "Nah. teams is getting gay. I'm sick and tired of seeing you and Sam hiding behind each others backs."
"You tell them Cal!" said Huwee. "Yes we would, " Sam said in his usual arrogant tone. He plugged his controller into port 2. Everyone else dove for the other 3 as if it were a fumble in the Super Bowl. I looked to see how had it this time. I didn't mind if I didn't go first, especially today. Seems that Sam, Jess , Ray and Yoshi got a hold of it this time. The matches began. I watched thinking to myself how weak they alll seemed. I indeed planned to use y ultimate weapon. No, not Yoshi, hehe, you know who.
****As the fights go on*****
Sam was hot on Yoshi's tail. Sam was Roy, as usual, and Yoshi was. Yoshi. "YOSHI! You big fat chicken! Come back here!" yelled Sam. Time was slowly ticking away. "SEA YOU BUM!" Yoshi said like right next to my ear. "Come one back me up man!"
I decided I would, and caught Sam with a Fox Illusion. (Yeah, I'm Fox.) Roy flew a little bit in the air. "ACK! You gay guy!" Sam said as he rolled right before he landed. "He's my kill! Back off!" Both of them were mine. I grabbed a Proximity Mine and threw it down to the lowest ledge of Hyrule Temple. I then nabbed a Super Scoop which conveniently landed in front of me. Yoshi didn't notice that I had thrown a mine down.
I ordered him to fly off the far most edge of the right side castle and make his way to the bottom layer. With Yoshi's amazing jumping ability, Yoshi would get there no problem. In the meantime, Sam and I where exchanging blows. Sam noticed Yoshi and decided to kill him instead. He rushed down the cave section of the middle layer of the level. I made my way to the left side and fell through two platforms, waiting to strike. Sam descended while charging a deadly Flare Blade. He knew where I had placed the mine, and he also knew that Yoshi would fly in his direction. I took two jumps and began to charge up the Super Scoop.
Everything played out perfectly. Yoshi did get a little surprise when he reached the ledge. He hit the mine and was thrusted by the explosion at 134% to the left, right towards Sam. He unleashed the Flare Blade which made direct contact, but so did something else. A huge ball of energy hit both Sam and Yoshi. Yoshi bounced on the wall, and was thrown straight out of the stage from the explosion and 187%. Sam flew directly out of the stage rather than downwards. He sparkled in the sky as the game once again announced ,"GAME!"
"Yep," I sighed, brushing my fist on my chest. "You big fat cheater! What was that?!" whined Sam. Yosh gave me a quick elbow. "You butt! You were supposed to cover me, not set me up!" "Sorry about that," I apologized. "But you know how it is. I can keep you safe from Sam, but not from me. NO one is safe from me."
Jess quickly replied. "Whatever! If I was there I would have done the same thing!" "What are you talking about! I killed you earlier today remember?" responded Sam. "You just got lucky," said Jess.
I looked over at the clock. It was 12:40. 2 minutes till class began. "Plenty of time," I thought. "Hey Cal, Jess, Sam.. You guys up for a quick 3 on 1?" They stood there amazed. "As good as you are," began Cal, "There's no way you could ever beat all three of us. There isn't even enough time for us to get you to 100%, and that doesn't take long."
I just smirked and said, "Trust me, I will slaughter you with time to spare! "Jess rolled his eyes in disgust. "You can't do that!" he said. But I got my way. Sure enough they had their characters ready to go. Sam as Roy, and both Cal and Jess as Marth. I quickly began do type in my little trick. Just as soon as I finished the code, the match should have started. But a familiar screen popped up on the game.
"Error" "Damn it not again!" I thought. NO this wasn't cause of my code. My Gamecube acts up sometimes. " You know your Gamecube is really gay!" Sam said. Just then, I felt a strange wave of energy. It felt really weird and a sharp pain thrusted itself through my chest. I tried to shake it off calmly. "Just... some technical difficulties .. that's all...," I leaned over a bit. "What's wrong?" Huwee asked. "Nothing...just a little gas maybe." I told her. I wish it were just gas. The eerie wave felt stronger and I felt so weary.
The sky was pretty dark all day, and now, it had a boggish green glow. Just when I noticed it, I turned around to see if anyone saw it. Everyone was frozen in their place. I heard a loud, high pitched sound that only added to the pain I was experiencing. I shook it off as best as I could and stood, dumbfounded, wondering why everything just stopped. The noise kept ringing, and my eardrums felt like they were going to burst. Was I dreaming? I found myself on the ground, as if I was being pulled down to the core of the earth with tremendous gravity. I slowly looked up at a bright green light coming from the T.V screen!
"Wha?" I said in complete shock. Everything began to swirl around me, as if the screen began a dark, black hole. I didn't feel like I was getting sucked in, but the world around me resembled a realistic, misshape painting of Picassos.
My body began to compress as the weird transformations went on. Bright flashing lights buzzed all over the area. Surreal skies illuminated the voids above me. My head was spinning from this bizarre occurrence. I then slowly passed out. I was left laying on a huge platform, the exact one that I am sitting on right now. But this wasn't over. The adventure had just begun.
To be continued...
************ It seemed a little slow to me. But things begin to heat up next chapter, and will leave you with a lot more questions than answers. But don't worry, it gets good. Action lies ahead! Gamecube, Super Smash Bros Melee is © to Nintendo, as well as all of the Nintendo characters seen here. Sonic and Eggman are © to Sega/Sonic Team. That mysterious guy isn't important right now, but he is © to me. You won't see him much anyway. All other characters are real people (thought their names are different..) Well, not anymore!

"For your sake you better!" Eggman said a little releieved. "Whatever, just hurry up and find the next one."
Eggman simply ignored him and began to process a shift in time on the map. The universe shown on the map began to animate. It showed this "dimension" explode with little traces left. An emerald shockwav began to make it's way on unsuspecting universes, causing outrageous reactions. Some began to collide, creating total chaos for anything around them. Others stopped in their tracks and created worm holes to other realities. But the was one universe that began to emit strong energy readings. Small galaxies within it began to give off a small essence, which formed itself in the center of this particular universe. They beging to swirl, as if a dark hole was consuming them. A bright flash revealed a clutter of floating worm holes, all coexisting in a small galaxy.
"Well I hope your proud of yourself," Eggman congratulated the figure. " In a few hours, you will have created a whole new reality. "Really now? I should get a Nobel for that. So do you want me to head there or not?"
"My my my, never in anyone's wildest dreams did I imagine something like this formed. Maybe your help isn't necessary for this task. I don't think your capable of it." "Try me," groaned the mercenary. "No no your body can't sustain it. Your not compatible, you won't last," Eggman said. " This is a very unusual place, it's like nothing I have ever seen before. No, we need an old friend of mine." He slowly walked to a monitor and began to make contact with this "friend". "So I'm not good enough?" asked the lone mercenary. "Believe me rodent," replied Eggman. "I know who is, and it can save us a lot of time. Besides, I think you've earned a little time off."
***Back to Reality**********
I quickly shoved my folder into my already crammed backpack. My Gamecube was safely nestled in it, along with my school accommodations. I rushed out of my class, just 8 minutes after the lunch bell rang.
"Late again!" I thought to myself. I was stuck for the first few minutes of lunch due to another one of Mr. V's tests. It walked as fast as I could through the afternoon traffic of people, hurrying to lunch lines or the parking lot. Room D108 wasn't far from my A.P. Composition class. I slowly opened the door and walked in, with my head up high in the air.
A large, Asian guy sat on his usual table and scorned, " Finally you bum! Come over here so I can sit on you!" I began to set up without saying a word. A crowd of 17 people sighed as I did so, finally getting a shot to earn some KO's in Super Smash Bros Melee.
"Sometimes you people piss me off," I thought as I ignored the typical question of "what took you so long?" Hieu, who knew my dilemma, politely asked ," So, can we do teams today?" A guy who was about a little taller than I was answered that for me.
"YES! Sam and I will beat you all!" A quick reply was made from a good friend of mine. "Nah. teams is getting gay. I'm sick and tired of seeing you and Sam hiding behind each others backs."
"You tell them Cal!" said Huwee. "Yes we would, " Sam said in his usual arrogant tone. He plugged his controller into port 2. Everyone else dove for the other 3 as if it were a fumble in the Super Bowl. I looked to see how had it this time. I didn't mind if I didn't go first, especially today. Seems that Sam, Jess , Ray and Yoshi got a hold of it this time. The matches began. I watched thinking to myself how weak they alll seemed. I indeed planned to use y ultimate weapon. No, not Yoshi, hehe, you know who.
****As the fights go on*****
Sam was hot on Yoshi's tail. Sam was Roy, as usual, and Yoshi was. Yoshi. "YOSHI! You big fat chicken! Come back here!" yelled Sam. Time was slowly ticking away. "SEA YOU BUM!" Yoshi said like right next to my ear. "Come one back me up man!"
I decided I would, and caught Sam with a Fox Illusion. (Yeah, I'm Fox.) Roy flew a little bit in the air. "ACK! You gay guy!" Sam said as he rolled right before he landed. "He's my kill! Back off!" Both of them were mine. I grabbed a Proximity Mine and threw it down to the lowest ledge of Hyrule Temple. I then nabbed a Super Scoop which conveniently landed in front of me. Yoshi didn't notice that I had thrown a mine down.
I ordered him to fly off the far most edge of the right side castle and make his way to the bottom layer. With Yoshi's amazing jumping ability, Yoshi would get there no problem. In the meantime, Sam and I where exchanging blows. Sam noticed Yoshi and decided to kill him instead. He rushed down the cave section of the middle layer of the level. I made my way to the left side and fell through two platforms, waiting to strike. Sam descended while charging a deadly Flare Blade. He knew where I had placed the mine, and he also knew that Yoshi would fly in his direction. I took two jumps and began to charge up the Super Scoop.
Everything played out perfectly. Yoshi did get a little surprise when he reached the ledge. He hit the mine and was thrusted by the explosion at 134% to the left, right towards Sam. He unleashed the Flare Blade which made direct contact, but so did something else. A huge ball of energy hit both Sam and Yoshi. Yoshi bounced on the wall, and was thrown straight out of the stage from the explosion and 187%. Sam flew directly out of the stage rather than downwards. He sparkled in the sky as the game once again announced ,"GAME!"
"Yep," I sighed, brushing my fist on my chest. "You big fat cheater! What was that?!" whined Sam. Yosh gave me a quick elbow. "You butt! You were supposed to cover me, not set me up!" "Sorry about that," I apologized. "But you know how it is. I can keep you safe from Sam, but not from me. NO one is safe from me."
Jess quickly replied. "Whatever! If I was there I would have done the same thing!" "What are you talking about! I killed you earlier today remember?" responded Sam. "You just got lucky," said Jess.
I looked over at the clock. It was 12:40. 2 minutes till class began. "Plenty of time," I thought. "Hey Cal, Jess, Sam.. You guys up for a quick 3 on 1?" They stood there amazed. "As good as you are," began Cal, "There's no way you could ever beat all three of us. There isn't even enough time for us to get you to 100%, and that doesn't take long."
I just smirked and said, "Trust me, I will slaughter you with time to spare! "Jess rolled his eyes in disgust. "You can't do that!" he said. But I got my way. Sure enough they had their characters ready to go. Sam as Roy, and both Cal and Jess as Marth. I quickly began do type in my little trick. Just as soon as I finished the code, the match should have started. But a familiar screen popped up on the game.
"Error" "Damn it not again!" I thought. NO this wasn't cause of my code. My Gamecube acts up sometimes. " You know your Gamecube is really gay!" Sam said. Just then, I felt a strange wave of energy. It felt really weird and a sharp pain thrusted itself through my chest. I tried to shake it off calmly. "Just... some technical difficulties .. that's all...," I leaned over a bit. "What's wrong?" Huwee asked. "Nothing...just a little gas maybe." I told her. I wish it were just gas. The eerie wave felt stronger and I felt so weary.
The sky was pretty dark all day, and now, it had a boggish green glow. Just when I noticed it, I turned around to see if anyone saw it. Everyone was frozen in their place. I heard a loud, high pitched sound that only added to the pain I was experiencing. I shook it off as best as I could and stood, dumbfounded, wondering why everything just stopped. The noise kept ringing, and my eardrums felt like they were going to burst. Was I dreaming? I found myself on the ground, as if I was being pulled down to the core of the earth with tremendous gravity. I slowly looked up at a bright green light coming from the T.V screen!
"Wha?" I said in complete shock. Everything began to swirl around me, as if the screen began a dark, black hole. I didn't feel like I was getting sucked in, but the world around me resembled a realistic, misshape painting of Picassos.
My body began to compress as the weird transformations went on. Bright flashing lights buzzed all over the area. Surreal skies illuminated the voids above me. My head was spinning from this bizarre occurrence. I then slowly passed out. I was left laying on a huge platform, the exact one that I am sitting on right now. But this wasn't over. The adventure had just begun.
To be continued...
************ It seemed a little slow to me. But things begin to heat up next chapter, and will leave you with a lot more questions than answers. But don't worry, it gets good. Action lies ahead! Gamecube, Super Smash Bros Melee is © to Nintendo, as well as all of the Nintendo characters seen here. Sonic and Eggman are © to Sega/Sonic Team. That mysterious guy isn't important right now, but he is © to me. You won't see him much anyway. All other characters are real people (thought their names are different..) Well, not anymore!
