Back by popular demand….my SSBB series! Yey! Party! Woo hoo! YAAA!

Yeah, right. Hopefully none of you are THAT excited. Anyway, this is just plain random, as usual. Serious out-of-characterness. Sorry. Enjoy anyway.

Rated T for drug reference, mild language, action, humor, and intense peril. Also Justin Bieber. …Not. Thank God.

This kinda ties in with Palutena's Army but just a bit at the beginning until they all meet up. Then it's just another story I threw together in less than three weeks. But near the end it had a connection with The Real Reason 1&2. Yey. Here we go…

It was a usual day in Ordon Village. Goats escaping and running villagers over, monkeys stealing baby baskets, and an angry swarm of bees were attacking the pumpkins.

Yep, it was usual.

Then Link came riding into the town on a goat backwards, whooping and shouting, "GIDDY UP!"

The goat jumped the nearby fence and Link fell off flat on his face.

"Hey, look, mommy! Some weirdo just fell in the mud!" Said a kid, laughing.

Link got up, his whole front side covered in mud. He could hardly see and ended up running into a post. "AAGHH! MY NOSE! Why is this stupid fence post even here?"

He kicked the post, breaking his toes, and offering an escape route to the chickens.

"AAAGAAAHAAA!"

Yep, it was usual.

Later Zelda heard what happened and literally fell down laughing.

"It's not funny!" Link protested, limping over to her. "My toes swelled to the size of potatoes! Now they won't fit in my boots!"

"You…are….so….stupid….!" Zelda managed to say in-between hiccups and laughing fits.

"I need to take some time off to have fun, you know!" Link pouted.

"That was fun for YOU?"

Link gave her a glare that made him look like a really young version of Ganondorf.

"Ok, sorry." Zelda could barely stand because of a huge fit of hiccups. "Do you want your toes to fit back in your boots now?"

"Please." Link looked really pitiful. "Please, please, please."

There was a sound like a balloon being deflated and then Link's big, red, puffy toes shrank down to normal size.

"Thank you, Zelda!"

Just then a guy came running in with what looked like a golden envelope.

"Princess Zelda!" The guy said. "This came for you…and Link! Somehow the sender knew you would both be here!"

Zelda took the envelope, opened it, and read it over. Her eyes got wide.

"What does it say? Can I see it? Is it a birthday invitation?" Link asked about a billion questions at once.

"Read it yourself!" Zelda looked really happy. "Palutena's Army is reuniting! I have to tell the others!"

SAME TIME, SOMEWHERE ELSE….

"So what would happen if I took a flamethrower and turned it on and aimed it at those guys?" Luigi asked evilly.

"They would burn. So says the Laws of Flamethrowers." Mario said, sounding bored.

"Honestly, we need to get that gang out of here."

The two of them were peeking out from behind some dumpsters, watching a gang gamble and cuss. They had been defacing property and causing quite a panic for some time.

"How about we go out there and show 'em what we're made of?" Luigi asked.

"Dude, there's twenty of them and two of us."

"Ten for each!"

"It's not gonna work."

"Ok, then. Let's go beg."

"Are you out of your mind? What have you been drinking lately?"

"Sprite!"

"You know what sugar does to you!"

Luigi ignored him and walked towards the gang, with Mario freaking out about how his brother was gonna get beaten to a pulp and there wouldn't be enough of him to bury.

"hey, get out of here, punk." Said one of the gang members.

"Why? This is our property." Luigi said.

"It's ours now."

Mario raced out from behind the dumpster. "What are you doing? They're fifty feet taller than us and they lift ten billion pound weights daily! What are you thinking? Come on!"

"Is your girlfriend sticking up for you?" One of the buffest gang member said.

Mario looked ticked. "Now listen here, you overgrown forklift…"

The guy towered over Mario. "Wanna repeat that?"

"No. We were just going." Mario squeaked. "Come on, Luigi."

That was about when a guy shorter than Mario came running over brandishing a golden envelope. "Mr. Mario? Mr. Luigi? Letter for you!"

The buff gang member grabbed the golden envelope from the guy and opened it.

The letter deliverer nervously glanced from Mario to the buff guy. "Um….sir….?"

The buff guy's eyes got wide. He threw the letter to the ground and ran off, crying.

The rest of the gang stood there in shock, looking at the letter as if it would jump up and bite them.

"Uh….we'll be back." They muttered before running off.

Mario reached down and grabbed the letter. "What was that all about? I'm scared to read it now."

"It's a special letter. It will change the writing to insults and things like that if the wrong person gets ahold of it." The letter deliverer said matter-of-factly. "And you need to get Bowser, Wario, Lakitu and Walluigi. They have to come too."

With that, the guy vanished.

Mario speed read to the extreme. "We're meeting up again! Palutena's Army! This is great! I'm gonna get the others!"

He left Luigi to read the letter and hurry after him.

SAME TIME SOMEWHERE ELSE….

Trevor the Pokémon Trainer was busy having a battle with Lucario. That same Lucario had once helped save the worlds from Tabuu, but had missed out on the chance of joining Palutena's Army because he was trying to avoid Team Rocket at all costs.

Pikachu had the same probablem, only it was with everyone in general. They all decided that they all wanted Pikachu Hunting Season, so….yeah. But luckily, he survived, because he ended up with the Army.

"Go, Charizard! Use Take Down!" Trevor shouted.

His Charizard leapt forward and knocked Lucario to the ground.

"Good job!"

Lucario slowly got up, looking worn. "Come on, bring it!"

"Charizard! Flamethrower!" Trevor cheered.

As soon as the Charizard got close enough to Lucario, Lucario ducked around him and blasted him into a tree. Charizard then started snoring.

"Aw, what the heck. Good job, Lucario." Trevor laughed. "Here."

Lucario took the ripe berry from Trevor and hungrily devoured it. "I feel better already."

"Great. I have to get Charizard to the Pokémon Center. Want to come along?" Trevor asked.

"I don't have anything else to do."

So they trooped over to the Center and Charizard got healed. As they were exiting the Center, a guy came running up to them.

"Trevor! Letter for you!"

Trevor took the letter from the guy(It was a weird golden color) and thanked him.

"Have fun!" The guy said, and then he was just gone.

"Something tells me this has something to do with Palutena's Army." Lucario smiled.

Trevor opened the envelope and read out loud, " 'To: Trevor, Charizard, Squirtle, Ivysaur, Pikachu and Lucario. It's been a while sense we've seen you. I've never thanked you properly for helping me save the worlds. Call this an invitation to a party if you'd like. Meet where you received this letter two days from right now when you read this. From Palutena!'"

"I guess we'd better get Pikachu, then." Lucario said. "I'll find him. You load up on Potions and things like that."

SAME TIME SOMEWHERE ELSE(AGAIN)….

"POYO POYO POYO!" Kirby objected as Meta Knight hopped on the Hydra and sped off. "POOOYYYYOOOO!"

His eyes got as wide as dinner plates as Meta Knight veered around a corner and zoomed back at him.

"AAAGHH! POYO!"

Meta Knight killed the engine just in time. The Hydra was literally sitting on Kirby's foot.

"hey, this thing is fast!" Meta said, looking pleased with himself. "I think I was hitting 250 MPH."

Kirby passed out.

"You know what else I figured out in the past 24 hours? I can fly up-side down. While reading a book. Also I can warp. But you figured that out the hard way, didn't you. That was one race I'll never forget." Meta glanced at Kirby, who was losing the pink in his face rather fast. "Kirby? Are you ok?"

Kirby's foot twitched.

"Oh, man, he's going into shock from my awesomeness."

That was about when a weird guy came running up to them. He paused to look at Kirby. "What's wrong with him?"

"I don't know." Meta shrugged. "Everything?"

"Anyway, I have a letter for you." The guy handed Meta Knight a golden envelope.

"Good thing I always keep a letter opener on hand." With a few quick slices of his outrageously sharp SWORD the letter was out of the envelope.

"Wow. Good day." The letter person obviously didn't want to hang out around a guy that was very good with a sword.

Meta Knight read it over quickly. "Oh, wow, Kirby! We're going back to the Army! I can't believe it! Can you?"

Kirby's other foot twitched.

"But the one bad thing is we've got to bring Dedede with us."

Kirby hiccupped.

"Oh, well. At least we'll see everyone else again."

DISCLAIMER: Um…Everyone who plays Air-Ride knows Meta Knight can't actually ride any of the vehicles. Major bummer, I know. I got mad. But he can ride them in this because I'm the author and I say so. This is fair, right? Mu ha ha ha ah….

SAME TIME SOMEWHERE ELSE…AGH

Sonic and his good fox friend, Tails(Who's real name is Miles, but we'll just stick to Tails) were wondering what to do. Before they were wondering what to do, they had blown up an evil intergalactic theme park thing(Don't ask) and now they were bored.

"So how about we just go to Cedar Point now?" Tails asked.

"I dunno. I've had enough of that stuff for a while." Sonic sighed. "let's go home and play X-Box."

So they started heading in a random direction.

"I don't know about you right now, but I want some ice cream." Tails said.

"Yeah, me too. Thanks for bringing that up." Sonic sounded annoyed.

That was when Shadow came running up to them. "Sonic! I just got this bizarre golden envelope."

Tails and Sonic gave him a weird look. "What?" Sonic asked.

"It's for you." Shadow hissed, throwing it at him.

Sonic read it over. "Oh, wow! I can't believe there's already a meeting thing again."

"What?" Tails asked. "Can I come?"

"Sorry, buddy, but this is strictly for people that went on an adventure to save multiple worlds from destruction." Sonic said.

"Sonic, we literally just did that twenty minuets ago." Tails gave him an evil look.

"I meant different worlds. Sorry. I'll bring you back a souvenir."

"Ok, then. I'll build airplanes while you're gone." Tails looked a little happier.

"So we got to meet back here in two days?" Sonic asked Shadow.

"It's in the letter, so yeah."

"Ok then. Just enough time to do random things." Sonic ran off.

"Come back!" Tails flew off after him, leaving Shadow to go and do whatever.

I just kinda finished playing Sonic Colors, and the ending is kinda…..not finished. So I finished it in my fan fiction! Yey! I hate the new voice actors! I want the old guys! They ruled! I'm crazy! WHAAA! Anyway, l want Sonic's old voice actor guy back because he had one of those voices that was one in a million. The new guy sounds retarded. (No offence)

Moving on…

TWO DAYS FROM WHEN EVERYONE READ THE LETTERS….

Everyone (who was still alive, anyway) was suddenly in a place that was kinda purple.

"Hey! I remember you!" Lucas said, looking really happy.

"I do too!" Jill said.

"Hi everyone!"

There was a mass Hey-I-Remember-You,-Do-You-Remember-Me? thing going on in the next five minuets that Ganondorf and Shadow gradually strayed away from.

Everyone (That wasn't dead) was there. In case you were wondering, those guys were Zelda, Meta Knight, Ganondorf, Fox, Falco, Wolf, Sonic, Lucario, Pit, Marth, Tingle, Kat, Ana, Shadow, Walluigi, Sar'John, Link, Kirby, Mario, Samus, Pikachu, Lucas, Ike, Trevor, Ness, Luigi, Lakitu, Goroh, Knuckle Joe, Dr. Wright, Stafy, Lyn, Little Mac, Jeff, Saki, Jill, Wario and King Dedede.

"I'm glad to see you all could make it." Palutena was suddenly in their midst. "There is no crisis, just to erase any doubt. You are here to have some fun and explore the worlds."

"Sounds great!" Ana said.

"If I'm here to have fun, then why are they here?" Ganondorf growled, motioning to pretty much everyone and giving them a dirty look.

Everyone gave him dirty looks right back.

"Please, can't we all just get along? Why can't we be friends…why can't we be friends…" Tingle sang badly.

Ganondorf gave him a look that plainly said, "I'm going to kill you."

Tingle went pale and hid behind Ike.

"So where do you guys what to head first?" Trevor asked.

"Not Pokémon world, or Jhoto or whatever. Me and Shadow now officially classified as rare Pokémon." Sonic looked annoyed.

"Me too." Meta Knight said.

"Poyo." Kirby agreed.

"Let's go to Hyrule!" Samus suggested.

"Yeah! Let's go to Hyrule!" Ness, Lucas and Jeff cheered.

Palutena handed Link a little green thing. "Use this to teleport between worlds. Just say the name and you'll go."

"Sweet."

"Thanks, Palutena!" Zelda said as they all teleported.

They landed somewhere in Ordon Spring.

"Oh, great. My underwear is wet." Link looked ticked.

"T.M.I.." Snake moved away from him and went to sit next to Samus. "Hey, remember me?"

"How could I forget." Samus rolled her eyes. "If you want to kiss me, shave that beard goatee thing."

Everyone had fun splashing each other and acting bizarre. But remember, it's all fun and games until Fox's blaster gets wet.

"AAGH! SHOCK! SHOCK! OW!" Fox threw the blaster away. "My fingers are burned!"

Ganondorf laughed so hard he nearly passed out.

"You have some issues." Lyn said.

Everyone claimed a spot on the beach thing and dried out in the sun.

"Sand Angel!" Lucas cheered, making a sand angel. When he got up, his entire backside was covered in sand.

"Ha ha!" Ness laughed.

Everyone rolled their eyes.

"Who wants pudding?" Zelda asked.

"I do! I do!" All the immature people cheered really loudly.

So Zelda gave them pudding.

"I know of a few things to do here." Link suggested. "We can go into Castle Square and terrorize everyone!"

"Yes, that would be perfect!" Wolf and Shadow looked really evil.

"Uh…maybe not." Link said. "Well, there's Hyrule Field. That place is so huge, we could build a city in there!"

"We could play hide and seek!" Ike suggested lamely.

"Or we could explore caves-" Link listed off fun things to do on his fingers.

"More like get lost in them." Sonic said.

"Or we could go swimming-"

"More like drown."

"Or we could go mine Rupees in Hyrule Field." Link gave Sonic an evil look.

"Ok, I didn't even have a thing to the last one."

"I want to explore a cave." Marth said. "Who knows, we could discover a few fossils or something."

"Or something." Ike agreed.

"Be quiet."

"What's a Rupee?" Jill asked.

"They're what we use as money here." Zelda said. "We're pretty rich. We walk around, and Rupees practically find us."

"Cool!"

"While we're waiting, we can crash at my place." Link suggested.

TWENTY MINUETS LATER….

"This is cramped." Marth decided when Mario got shoved out the window on account of too many people in a small house.

"It's like a party." Knuckle Joe said.

"I hate parties." Shadow hissed.

"Ganondorf's trying to shove Luigi in the fire!" Samus shouted.

Snake rushed over there after shoving Walluigi aside and pulled Luigi out of the fire by his smoking overalls. "Don't worry. I'll kill him."

"STOP, DROP AND ROLL!" Luigi did that and practically went bowling.

Mario, who had just climbed back up in the house, got shoved out the door because Luigi came rolling into him.

"At this rate, Mario should be dead by tomorrow!" Wario looked pleased.

Meanwhile Snake was trying to make out with Samus but she socked him in the nose.

"AGH! Why do you hate me?"

"I don't hate you." Samus said. "I hate your beard thing. And how you always try to kiss me."

"She also doesn't hate Tabuu!" Pit piped up.

Snake's face turned red and he reached for a grenade.

"NO NO NO! THIS IS MY HOUSE!" Link screamed.

"Keep it down! There's weird people outside the door!" Sar'John whispered loudly.

Instantly, everyone shut up because they knew that sometimes if people hear you they may try to kill you. But only sometimes.

"Who is it?" Zelda ran to the window. "Um…Link? Do you know those people?"

Link went to the window. "Who is that?"

"That was what I was asking you, Smart One." Zelda sounded annoyed.

"Can I answer the door?" Ness asked.

"Uh, only if you want to die." Goroh said.

Someone knocked on the door. "Hello? Anyone home?"

"There's no one here." Came a whispered response from another guy outside the door.

"Ok, then." The guy that knocked said.

The door gave way to two really tall buff guys.

One of them had orange hair that was rolled up in the front like a pair of socks. He had wicked sideburns and orange eyebrows. He was wearing dark sunglasses that made him look very evil. The other guy had a top hat thing(Who even wears top hats these days?) and dark hair. He had arching eyebrows that gave him a very serious look. He had a weird goatee that if possible, made him look even more serious.

Everyone stood there looking stunned.

"Oh…Hi." The first guy with the orange hair said. "I didn't know you were here."

Link stood in-between the buff guys and everyone else. "What do you want?"

"Would you like to participate in The Games?" The second buff guy asked.

"What are The Games?" Lucas asked. "Like Uno?"

"Not exacally." The first buff guy said. "My name's John. That's Greg."

"So…do we have to sign a contract or anything?" Samus asked.

"Unfortunately, yes." Greg handed her a twenty foot long piece of paper that was written completely in small print. "That's just page one of three. You have to sign a separate sheet of paper anyway. There was no way we were going to get it all to fit on one sheet."

"Oh, that's just great." Saki groaned, looking over Samus' shoulder.

"But can you describe the games at all, buff guys?" Lucas asked.

"And why did you break the door down?" Ness demanded.

"Yeah!" Jeff added.

"It was a mistake on John's part." Greg said, casting a glare at his comrade.

"Wait…what's this part of, 'In the case of death one or more persons may not hold The Games accountable, and by the rights-'" Samus started reading, but Greg grabbed the paper away from her. "Oh that was just a typo." He said quickly.

"Who are you really?" Zelda asked. "And don't bother lying."

John looked at the floor. "We're Elite Agents." He muttered.

"What's that?"

"I can't tell you. Top secret."

"Ok, then. Who do you work for?"

John glanced at Greg, who was red in the face. "Greg?"

"We don't even know." Greg hissed.

"Ok, well, just so you know, we aren't taking part in The Games. It sounded life threatening on many levels. I read something about lava golems and racetracks." Samus said. "No deal. Get out of Link's house before we beat you out."

John and Greg didn't move until Snake stepped up and stuck two bombs to their faces, shoved them out the door, and activated the bombs.

BOOM.

"GREG! YOUR HAIR'S ON FIRE!" John yelled as they ran to Ordon Spring to put their hair out.

"Nice going, Snake." Link said.

"Samus, did you read anything else about The Games?" Jill asked.

"I think you needed to be insured, but I wasn't real sure." Samus said. "And something about lava golems, racetracks, and how The Games are not responsible for death. But here's the weird thing…"

Everyone got quiet and moved in closer.

"They said if you die, you can be brought back, whatever that means."

"I hope they don't sign any suckers up for that. That may be the death of them all." Ike said. "What are the Elite Agents?" He wondered.

"And who do they work for?" Marth piped up.

"And why does John have a name that sounds like mine?" Sar'John asked.

"Don't worry. We won't get you mixed up. In fact, that's impossible. How could we mistake a muscle man for a scrawny angel kid?" Ganondorf snickered evilly.

Sar'John gave him a dirty look.

"So…has anyone decided on what they want to do?" Link asked lamely.

LATER….

After giving a guy that sold lanterns and oil for the lanterns a huge scare ("Come on, guys, remember that these people have never seen talking animals and Kirby, Meta Knight and King Dedede before. Also Ganondorf." Link growled.

"WHY DO YOU TAKE PLEASURE IN SINGLING US OUT?" Meta Knight shouted.

Ganondorf would have punched Link to the Heavens if everyone hadn't dogpiled on him.) they continued into a dark cave thing.

"BAT IN MY HAIR!" Kat yelled, flying into a wall. "OW!"

Everyone that had weapons drew them and glanced around, just daring something to attack.

"I see light!" Ana announced about five minuets of smacking, shouting, killing and yelling later.

"Welcome to Hyrule Field!" Link announced when everyone got a look around.

"Pika!" Pikachu said happily.

"What's this?" Trevor held up something shiny and green.

"That's a Rupee. It's worth one dollar." Zelda said. "Yellow are worth five, and blue are ten. Purple are fifty and orange are one hundred."

Lyn held up a blue one. "Like this?"

"Yeah."

Everyone helped them with their get rich quick scheme and pretty soon they had over one thousand dollars in Rupees.

"Now let's go buy a muzzle for Ganondorf and a leash for Sonic." Link snickered.

"I dare you, Fairy Boy. I'll kick you to the Twilight Zone before you even come within two miles from me. I'll Dark Punch you where it hurts." Ganondorf went on and on about how he was going to beat Link up.

Sonic ran away.

Meanwhile Pit and Sar'John were laughing so hard they fell out of the sky.

Zelda and Lyn rolled their eyes. "Ha ha, so funny."

"Come on, guys. There's a cave over here!" Marth got excited. "Maybe we can find gold!"

"We're going to be millionaires by morning." Meta Knight said. "Hey, Kirby, maybe we can get the equipment for more Air Ride vehicles."

"Poyo!" Kirby agreed, running over to where Marth was carefully peeking around the corner of the cave.

"Everyone ready to go in?" Luigi asked.

"Where did Sonic go?" Mario asked.

Everyone looked around.

"See? This is why we need a leash." Link grumbled. "And if we can't get Ganondorf to wear the muzzle then we'll get cake instead."

"I'll be right back." Samus began climbing the rocky cliff thing that the cave was in like a pro.

"She's so hot when she climbs." Snake muttered to himself.

Samus had reached the top of the cliff and repeatedly fired her laser gun in the air.

"Oh, I get it. Flares." Trevor said wisely.

"Thank you, O wise Yoda." Jill giggled.

Samus began shouting, "STOOOOP!"

Two seconds later Sonic fell over the cliff and face-planted in the ground.

"I was trying to tell you…" Samus literally flipped off the cliff and landed on the ground. "…There was a cliff there."

"Thanks for telling me." Sonic's voice was muffled from the dirt. "I think I'm stuck."

"Good. Let's go, everyone." Marth waltzed into the cave.

Everyone but Trevor, Sar'John, Pit, Lucas, Ness, Samus, Snake and Jeff went after him.

"I'm just here because you're here, babe." Snake said to Samus.

"Hey, Pit! Grab his other leg and we'll pull him out!" Sar'John grabbed Sonic's ankle.

The only thing they succeeded in doing was throwing both of Sonic's shoes into the cave. There was a shout of "OW!"

"Oops." Pit looked ashamed of himself.

"We'll blow him out of the ground!" Snake pulled all of the explosives he owned out of multiple secret pockets.

"That won't be necessary." Samus said.

"Charizard! See if you can pull him out!" Trevor shouted.

Charizard bit Sonic's leg and yanked.

"OWW! OW OWW! MY LEG! STOP IT, YOU'RE GONNA KILL ME!" Sonic screamed.

There was a comical pop and Sonic flew about fifty feet in the air. "AAAGH!"

"Wheeee…" Everyone watched him fly.

"We'd better get him, Sar'John." Pit said, and the two angel kids flew up too.

"Aw, come on. I wanted to see if he'd face-plant again." Snake sounded bummed out.

Sar'John and Pit kinda dumped Sonic on the ground. "Are you ok?" Pit asked happily.

"Where did my shoes go?" Sonic asked. "And why didn't I break my nose? I pretty much landed on a rock."

"It's because the author doesn't want people to faint at the mention of blood." Samus said matter-of-factly.

"Come on, we'd better catch up to everyone." Trevor said. "And that cave looks dark. You'd better light it up, Charizard."

They saw a light and met up with everyone else a few minuets later. Link held up one of Sonic's shoes. "What did you do to send this flying into the cave? This thing's pretty much made of metal! I almost blacked out!"

"Heh heh. Sorry." Pit looked evil.

"Where's the other?" Sar'John asked.

Everyone in the group glanced at what was fueling Ganondorf's torch.

"What?" Ganondorf asked.

LATER....

"I never knew that Ike could make shoes like that." Mario said a little later when Sonic had another shoe and Ganondorf was as close to beaten up without actually being beat up.

"Who knew you could use rocks and bits and pieces of Ganondorf's cape to do that."

Something glowed up ahead. "What was that?" Lyn asked.

"Fire-worms, or something. I'll take care of them." Link went forward.

Two minuets later he returned, scorched, burned and smoking, and not one of the fire-worms were dead.

"They're tougher than they look." He whimpered.

Lucario stepped forward and Aura Sphere'd the fire-worms to death. "Close range doesn't work against these." He advised.

"I'll remember that." Zelda said, putting out Link's smoking hair.

Everyone crept forward carefully, as if the roof would cave in at any second.

"What's that?" Kat asked, pointing. "there's a moving orb thing…"

"Don't move!" Link hissed.

Everyone didn't move. Link drew a bow and some arrows out of what seemed like nothing, and aimed at the glowing orb. The arrow flew right into the orb, and there was a robotic hissing and then there was only darkness ahead.

"What was that?" Ness sounded scared.

Link switched the bow with a lantern out of what seemed like nothing and walked up to what looked like a robot's corpse. "These things we need to look out for."

"Whoa…" Everyone gasped.

"What do they do?" Ana asked.

"They fire a laser of fire at you. It hurts." Link said. "But if you shoot their eyes they shut down."

"Weird..."

There was a strange noise in the corner of the room they had entered into, and everyone looked to see what looked like a purple slug jump at them.

"SCATTER!" Lyn dodged to the side and then sliced the slug to pieces.

"Good job, Lyn." Zelda stepped forward and put some of the purple slug in a glass jar.

Dramatic music played.

You got Purple Chu jelly! But….who knows what it can do….mu ha ha ha…

"WHO'S THERE?" Everyone went back to back and drew every weapon they had.

Jeez, guys, relax! I'm the author! I'm just informing you on what you just got!

Zelda glanced at the Purple Chu jelly in the jar she had. "Do you want it back?" She asked.

No, you got it, it's yours! I'm just saying…oh, never mind. Go on with what you were doing. Forget I even spoke to you. No one likes me anyway

"Well, she's a very dramatic author." Luigi said.

"What did she mean by, 'who knows what it'll do'? Will it kill us?" Lucas asked.

"I once lost all but a sliver of my health to this thing. But another time, it saved my life." Link said. "It can hurt you really bad, it can just hurt you, it can heal you a little, or it can heal you completely. Who knows."

"I'm going to keep it, just in case someone's dying or something. It's never really…you know... left you unconscious to die slowly in the desert before, Link?" Zelda asked nervously.

"Um….nope." Link said. "Sometimes it doesn't do anything at all."

"Can we move on? This place's freaking me out." Walluigi said.

"Ok, then. Let's go. Keep your eyes open for any fire-worms, fire breathing salamanders, or any color of Chu. Red Chu jelly is the best you can get. It can heal you up to 95%." Zelda said.

"Fire breathing salamanders?" Knuckle Joe demanded.

"Chop their tails off and you'll be fine."

"Um…ok…"

Everyone went forward as carefully as carefully would allow.

They came to another strange room thing.

"Well there doesn't seem to be anything in here, so-" Wario got cut off as a huge lizard thing charged at them, breathing flames.

"OH MY GAH!"

Instantly, all the people with weapons ran around the back of the lizard and hacked its tail off. It shrieked and fell dead on the ground.

"I thought they were small!" Trevor was completely white from fear.

"Nope." Ike said, kicking its corpse. "Wow, it's hard. Is it fireproof?"

"And sword-proof and arrow-proof, and fist-proof…" Link listed off everything. "But you can do anything you want to its tail. It's completely vulnerable."

"So we can bite it?" Jill asked.

"If you really want to, I guess."

Everyone nudged the dead fire-breathing salamander/dragon thing.

"Can you imagine what we could do if we could manage to skin this thing?" Marth asked. "Imagine the armor! The swords! The arrows! Anything!"

"Oh, great, Marth. You gave Link an idea. Last time he had one of those six people nearly died." Ganondorf growled.

"We could make a fireproof/sword-proof/arrow-proof/fist-proof muzzle for you." Link glared.

Suddenly there was a crash up ahead in the darkness. "What was that?" Trevor asked nervously.

"I don't know. Be quiet." Mario whispered.

Everyone was really quiet, which was surprising.

Then they heard voices up ahead.

"Hey, Greg! I got one of those nasty slugs!"

"Great, John. Get it in that bag and come on. We gotta report back to The Games and give 'em the slugs."

"But these things are too easy to defeat." Greg went on. "Why are we even getting them?"

"It's for training, you dimwit! Come on." There was a shuffling noise and a small flash of light.

"I hate those guys." Shadow hissed.

"What are they doing in a cave?" Lucas demanded.

"I don't know. Something tells me they're up to no good." Zelda said. "And all their talk about The Games…what do they mean by they need the Chu for training?"

"This sounds an awful lot like the prison we were in for a while before we all met up." Ike muttered.

Luigi suddenly stood very still. "What if that's it? What if they're bringing back the prison, kinda, and they're fighting each other to the death?"

"That would explain the thing about how The Games are not responsible for death." Samus said.

"Can we get out of here, please?" Ness squeaked.

LATER….

"Should we go back to Palutena and tell her what we heard?" Sar'John asked.

"Probably." Pit said. "Link, do you still have the stone thing to teleport us back?"

Link pulled the rock out of his pocket. "Ok, rock. Take us to Palutena!"

Nothing happened.

"Rock! I command you to take us to Palutena!"

Still nothing.

"I have a sword and I'm not afraid to use it."

Zelda grabbed the rock away from Link. "It probably needs a spark of power to start it, in case it gets taken by someone."

ONE SPARK OF POWER LATER….

"I NEVER WANT TO TELEPORT AGAIN!" Wario barfed.

"I'm gonna hurl." Luigi's face turned green to match his hat.

"I can't walk straight!" Meta Knight ran into a pillar thing.

Kirby pretty much threw up his entire stomach.

"Sorry. But after the second teleportation it gets better." Palutena appeared, looking about ready to laugh.

Ike was on his hands and knees, looking like he couldn't decide if he wanted to throw up or not. He sneezed instead.

Lucas was passed out in a corner.

"Can I eat that Chu jelly now?" Ness asked weakly. He was very pale.

Palutena snapped her fingers and everyone was better.

"it's just a first time thing." Palutena assured everyone. "By the second time you teleport you won't have any side effects."

"Lady, I feel like I was punched in the stomach by a fifty pound weight." Snake hissed.

Palutena laughed. "So why did you come here?"

"Well, there were two guys that were Elite Agents, and their names were Greg and John. They said they wanted us for The Games, whatever that was, and we had to sign a very long contract thing, but we didn't because that would have been stupid and the entire thing was in fine print. Then we sort of met up with them in a cave, and they were catching Chu like we were, only we heard a creepy author voice and she said that we got the Purple Chu jelly and that it can be evil. They said they needed the Chu for training, but Greg or John or whoever said that was stupid because these things were so easy to defeat." Sonic said really fast while running in circles.

"Oh…" Palutena looked concerned. "I have never heard of Elite Agents, but you should keep an eye on them anyway."

"Ok." Kat said.

LATER….

"So this is Ordon Village." Link said to everyone, who was crowded in the bushes.

It was dark, but Link still wasn't taking any chances.

"Ganondorf, you may not invade and steal their children."

"Dang it."

"So can we run around and scare everyone now?" Fox asked. "They'll call the cops on us, but who cares."

"And Animal Control." Wolf added evilly.

"That chicken is giving me the evil eye." Falco added.

"I can't sit still any more!" Lucas bounced up and into the river. "WHEEE!"

Everyone followed singing Frontline by Pillar for no apparent reason.

"Everyone with your fists raised high, let me hear your battle cry…"

"FOR NARNIA!" Ana yelled a bit too loudly.

Everyone got quiet as someone shouted from a house, "Shut up out there, you stupid kids!"

Everyone was pretty sure that Jeff gave the house 'the finger'.

Then Link climbed up on top of a huge hill thing and blew on some grass. A huge hawk came out of the nearby forest and landed on his arm.

"Wow! Can you teach me to do that?" Zelda asked.

Link whistled at the bird and it flew down to Zelda.

"He's beautiful…"

The bird gave a loud hawk screech thing and flew off.

"He doesn't like crowds that much." Link muttered. "Or pumpkins. Or rocks."

"That's animal cruelty!" Meta Knight accused.

"Oh, you can sue people for that?" Sonic asked, his eyes crossing.

"He's been abused." Shadow whispered to Samus, who was giving him a weird look.

"Ah." Samus looked like she understood things a lot better now.

"On Earth it's illegal." Sar'John said. "But I'm not really sure if I count as bird or boy. Or birdboy. One time I stepped on a bug. Is that evil?"

"Um…no." Snake said. 'it's evil if you tie a chipmunk to a stick and roast it alive over a fire."

Samus slapped him. "Have you done that before?"

"If you kiss me I'll tell you."

Samus took her gun out of its holder.

"Ok then, no. I never did that to any chipmunk, it was my next door neighbor. We called him The Terror."

Samus gave Snake an evil look but she put her gun away.

"So what else do you do in the village, Link?" Walluigi asked.

"I smash pumpkins. You know that band? Based on me. The Smashing Pumpkins." Link took a pumpkin and smashed it into the dirt pile. A blue Rupee fell out.

Link picked it up and dramatic music played.

You got a Blue Rupee! It's worth ten. Now you can pay your rent that you've owed Bo ever sense you were thirteen. Said the author in a bored tone.

"That is just creepy." Fox muttered.

"Poyo." Kirby agreed.

Don't you sass me, boy.

"Now that's really creepy."

"Author Lady? Why do you have to come and tell us things we already know?" Lucas asked innocently.

Because I get paid to harass you all. The author's voice seemed to echo around the village.

"Who pays you?" Ness asked.

That's for me to know and for you to find out. Get on with the adventure. If you stall I will cause unfortunate things to happen to you. Get a move on. Move your lazy butts. I don't have all day. Actually, I do, but I don't want to waste it talking to you.

Ness and Lucas looked sad.

"Ok, I don't know who or what you are, but could you stop talking to us so we can get on with the adventure?" Jill asked.

Someone in this group has some sense. The author said, and then her weird voice was gone.

"I'm going to have nightmares for weeks." Knuckle Joe muttered. "They're gonna be about finding a million dollars and a weird author lady's voice coming from the heavens."

I'm not a Goddess. The author snapped. I have limited Author Power, and I'm NOT God. God is awesomer then me. I'm just a girl barely scraping a living by talking to a group of crazy sword-wielders, angel kids, Kirby, Meta Knight, King Dedede, foxes, falcons, wolves, hedgehogs, assassins, and kids. NOW MOVE IT.

"WHY DO YOU DO THIS TO US?" Meta Knight and King Dedede wailed.

"SHHH!" Link hissed as loudly as he dared.

Lights flicked on inside houses.

"Aw, crap." Samus muttered.

Needless to say, angry villagers chased them out of the village with pitchforks and torches. It was a classic mob scene.

"We'll crash at my place tonight, then." Link said.

"But that place's cramped!" Sar'John said. "Pit and I had room because we were flying!"

"There's two balconies and a basement." Link said.

"I call the basement." Snake said.

"I call a balcony." Samus said.

THE NEXT MORNING….

Ganondorf thought it would be really funny if he stuck Link's shoe in the toaster.

"All right, who did that?" Link demanded.

Pit and Sar'John cracked up, making Link suspect them for the out-of-place-shoe.

So instead of toast everyone had pancakes.

Then Lyn got up. "Why are there dirt clods in the toaster?"

"Don't ask." Zelda muttered. "And besides, I'm eating."

Link was busy ratting out Ganondorf. "Why did you put my shoe in the toaster?"

"Be happy I didn't turn it on." Ganondorf laughed.

"Why do you suddenly like to destroy shoes all of a sudden?" Link demanded.

"Pit threw a pancake at the window and it stuck." Ganondorf laughed even harder.

Link went to yell at Pit instead.

Both Pit and Link learned a lesson that day: Syrup makes breakfast stick so smooth surfaces. It also makes it sticky enough to pull out a good handful of Sar'John's feathers.

"I won't ever be able to fly again!" Sar'John wailed.

"Oh, relax. Most of those were just for warmth." Pit said.

After that rather weird breakfast, everyone trooped out to Ordon Spring. Luckily no one was around except for their odd group.

"FISH!" Ness and Lucas went nuts.

So while they tried to pick up the fish with their bare hands everyone else made a plan for the day. Well…everyone that was sane helped with the plan.

"Ganondorf! Stop giving Link noogies!" Zelda yelled. "You're liquidizing whatever brains he has!"

Ike was laughing so hard he fell.

"Noogie…" Link squeaked.

"Hey, guys! Look!"

"We're frying something tonight!" Ness said triumphantly.

Everyone turned to see Lucas holding up the biggest greengill anyone's ever seen.

Dramatic music played.

You got a greengill! It's eighty-two inches long and weighs more than that skinny kid over there.

"Hey! I have to be light so I can fly!" Pit said.

I know that. It's just that fish weighs more than you. So it might have eaten you. You'd be an appetizer before it moved onto the main course: King Dedede.

King Dedede turned red. "I can fly too." He growled.

If you count 'gulping in air to float' flying, then yeah.

"You used to be nice, you know!" Jill said.

With that, the weird author went away.

LATER THAT NIGHT....

"Sardines are good! If you eat the eyes they pop and there's something that tastes like grape jelly!" Jeff was busy informing anyone that would listen.

Marth started to turn green. "Excuse me." He said, running for the nearest window to throw up over.

"I'm not hungry anymore." Lyn walked over to where Marth was puking and patted him on the back.

Near the fireplace, Zelda was frying the fish and Meta Knight was making shish kebob…with his sword.

"Hey, look! Another use for this thing."

Kirby walked over and pretty much inhaled everything on the sword. "Poyo." He said.

"That was my dinner." Meta Knight glared.

"Poyo." Kirby said sweetly, looking cute.

In another corner of the room, everyone was pretty sure that Snake was proposing to Samus…or he was just tying his shoelace.

"Dang it, that would have been great." Mario looked mad that nothing funny happened.

"Fish's ready!" Zelda announced.

Ganondorf walked up to her, grabbed the fish, and clunked down to the basement.

Everyone just stood there.

"You'd better share!" Sar'John yelled. "I'm a very hungry angel kid and I might just overpower your Dark Magic!"

Ganondorf threw the fish's skeleton up the ladder.

"It's ok, guys." Zelda snapped her fingers and a huge, fully cooked turkey appeared.

"Wow!" Jill looked excited.

After everyone ate as much as they could without exploding, there was still more than half the turkey left.

"I'm gonna be so fat I can't fly anymore!" Pit groaned.

Dramatic music played.

You got fat! Ha ha ha ah aha ha ha ha!

Pikachu laughed so hard he electrocuted everyone.

You also got shocked. Merry Christmas.

Trevor laughed so hard his face turned red.

It was all rather hilarious.

And Ganondorf missed out on it. (HA)

LATER….

"Um…Link? The creepy Elite Agents are back. And they're armed with contracts." Sonic informed everyone.

"Oh, not again." Everyone practically said at the same time.

Zelda opened the door and Greg and John were there.

"Hi, we were hoping you had changed your mind about The Games." Greg said.

"Nope. Leave or Snake will blow you up again." Zelda glared at them.

"But…if you win you could get a lot of money!" John pleaded.

"How much?"

"Fifty trillion in any currency!"

Everyone just stood there.

"We'd be so freaken' filthy rich!" Link said.

"I could buy that new sword I've always wanted." Marth muttered.

"Forget the sword, I'd buy the world!" Ike said.

"I'd buy the USA out of debt." Sar'John said happily.

"That still wouldn't be enough." Snake whispered to him.

"So will you join?" Greg asked, looking hopeful.

"We'll think about it. Come back in about a day." Samus said, and they left.

"Did they seem…desperate?" Luigi asked.

"Why would they be desperate? Do they need to give out money that badly?" Walluigi asked.

"Don't tell me this economy is being run into the ground too…" Snake groaned.

"I hate it when that happens." Shadow hissed.

Ganondorf came up the ladder looking eviler than evil. "hey, Link, I found money! Fifty Rupees to be exact."

"WHAT?" Link demanded.

"Mu ha ha ha…" Ganondorf slunk down the basement evilly.

"Let him keep it." Zelda said. "The weirdo."

Link fumed for a while but then he was "normal".

LATER….

"Please? Please can we go to Jhoto?" Lucas asked.

"Maybe if Trevor says it's ok." Zelda said. "Trevor?"

"Yeah?" Trevor came over to her.

"Do you think we could convince everyone to go to Jhoto?" Lucas asked excitedly.

"I don't know. Let's try." Trevor looked really evil all of a sudden.

So he and Lucas walked over to Ganondorf, who was sitting on a fence and eating an apple.

"Want to go to Jhoto?" Lucas asked, looking all happy.

"WHAT? NO!" Ganondorf fell off the fence. "Ow…"

"Ok, let's try Kirby, Meta Knight and King Dedede." Trevor was laughing so hard he could barely speak.

"Do you guys want to go to Jhoto?" Lucas asked, running over to them.

"Last time I was there I was classified as a Dark type bat Pokémon." Meta said, glaring at him. "Kirby was classified as the cousin of Gulpin."

Kirby started crying.

King Dedede just glared.

"Ok, then. Moving on…" Lucas went over to Shadow and Sonic. "Do you want to go to Jhoto? It'll be fun!"

"Fun as in destroying everything?" Sonic asked. "Because if I can do that, I'm in. But not if crazy Pokémon geeks throw Pokѐballs at my head."

"there's a slight chance of that happening." Trevor said. 'But it's slight."

Shadow just glared at them both throughout the entire mini conversation.

"Ok, then! Zelda! We're going to Jhoto!" Lucas said happily.

"WHAT? NO WE AREN'T!" Kirby, Meta Knight, King Dedede, Sonic, Shadow and Ganondorf all shouted at the same time.

Link ignored them. "Ok, then. Next stop, Jhoto! Take us there, O magic rock!"

"Truce. Let's kill him when we get there." Ganondorf said to Shadow.

"Deal."

ONE SPARK OF MAGIC LATER….

Everyone was standing in a kinda dense forest.

"Whoa! Link! Over here! I think I saw something!" Ganondorf ran off through some trees.

"I'll be right back!" Link followed him, like an idiot. Shadow followed, looking evil.

There was a sound like a tree being broken over someone's head.

Zelda kinda stood there. "What was that? Do I even want to know?"

"No. let's go see Pokémon." Ness said, going over to look at a weird bug.

So look at Pokémon they did.

Later Ganondorf and Shadow came and re-joined the group, looking like they had just became best buds.

"Where have you been? And where's Link?" Ike asked. "And is that blood on your face?"

Ganondorf wiped the blood off his cheek. "Nah. Just berries."

"Is this truce over yet?" Shadow growled.

"Um…Marth…?" Ike asked. "We kinda have to go find Link. I'm pretty sure they killed him."

Ten minuets later they found Link tied to a tree looking like he had just been beaten up by Godzilla.

After Zelda healed his multiple cuts, scrapes, bruises, fractures, broken bones, splinters, black eyes, punctured organs, and a broken nose,(Poor Link) they continued on.

"I hate Jhoto." Link muttered.

Trevor glared at him. "Why does this place get such a bad rap? I mean, it's rather fascinating, if you know where to look."

"Can we go see Jenny? The love of my life?" Ike asked.

"And Joy?" Marth looked really excited.

"Definitely not. This story is strictly not Romance." Samus said.

"Did Author Lady tell you that?" Marth looked rejected.

"Yeah. Sorry." Samus said. "See, Snake? I don't hate you, it's just in the rules."

There was a sudden shout not too far off.

"What was that?" Lucario asked.

Everyone carefully peeked through some bushes and just about fell over.

Greg and John were there, catching Pokémon left and right with a weird looking cage thing.

"That is illegal." Trevor growled. "And what are they doing here?"

John straightened up after chucking a strange bird into the cage. "Did you hear anything, Greg?"

"It's just your imagination. Come on, we've got enough. Let's head back to The Games." Greg drew out a strange green stone from his pocket.

"That's like what I have!" Link gasped.

"Hyrule!" Greg shouted, and he, the Pokémon, and John vanished.

"Hyrule?" Zelda, Link and Ganondorf shouted. "Are The Games there? Why haven't we heard of them?"

"Come on! We have to follow them!" Sonic shouted.

"Right!" Link drew out the green stone. "HYRULE!"

ONE SPARK OF POWER LATER….

"I see them!" Knuckle Joe whispered. "They're going that way!"

"They're going to the dark forest." Zelda gasped.

"I hope everyone brought lanterns if it's dark, then." Tingle muttered.

Everyone carefully stalked Greg and John like ninjas until they got to the edge of the forest.

"Ok, they're going in. Wait while I watch them." Lyn peeked around the corner and gasped. "They're gone! And there's a lot of weird purple fog!"

"They couldn't have just gone in there! They didn't have any lanterns or anything!" Link said. "That stuff will kill you!"

"You know this how?" Kat asked.

"I was saved by Zelda." Link said, turning a bright shade of pink.

"Who's the bodyguard now?" Pit snickered.

"Stay here. I'm going to check it out." Trevor stepped forward. "Go, Charizard. Light this place up."

As Trevor got closer to the strange purple fog it began to evaporate into the air, leaving a path. Charizard's light was causing it to disappear.

"Now that is both creepy and awesome." Trevor muttered to Charizard.

They went a little further, but not so far that they lost sight of everyone else.

"Do you see anything?" Jill called.

"No. We're gonna head back." Trevor called back. He and Charizard carefully waited until the fog was gone before running back to the group.

"Well, they couldn't have just vanished!" Knuckle Joe yelled. "That's impossible!"

"Remember they did have a strange green stone." Samus was thinking hard. "Do you think they teleported to Hyrule, when really they were suppost to teleport somewhere else? So they teleported here to throw us off?"

"Now I feel stupid." Snake growled.

"I still hate them." Shadow hissed.

"Ok, then. Where do they think they could have gone?" Ike asked.

"Um….back to Jhoto?" Trevor suggested. "They seemed to want a ton of Pokémon."

"I hate Jhoto." Ganondorf muttered.

"I hate the universe." Shadow hissed.

"I hate you." Ganondorf countered.

"I hate this hellhole of a forest." Shadow glanced around.

"I still hate Jhoto." Ganondorf confirmed.

"Ok, guys, that's enough." Zelda said. "We're going back to Jhoto."

"Wait…" Sar'John sounded really worried. "What about the other worlds and stuff? What if they go world to world and capture people? Should we warn them all?"

"That…" Marth said. "is a great idea."

"And luckily we have two people who can teleport in this group." Zelda pointed to Link and Shadow. "So there can be two groups, and we can meet back up here in the forest."

"Ok, then. Sounds easy enough." Wario said.

"Ok. Sense Link has the stone and knowledge of Hyrule, I'll be going with Shadow's group." Zelda continued.

Link's group goes as follows: Link, Meta Knight, Sonic, Pit, Sar'John, Tingle, Kat, Ana, Kirby, Mario, Lyn, Goroh, Saki, Jill, Luigi, Fox, Falco, Pikachu and Lucario.

Shadow's group goes as follows: Zelda, Ganondorf, Marth, Shadow, Walluigi, Samus, Lucas, Ike, Trevor, Ness, Lakitu, Knuckle Joe, Dr. Wright, Stafy, Little Mac, Jeff, Wario, Wolf and King Dedede.

"Hey, we're even!" Luigi said.

"Yeah. Everyone ok with the plan? Link's group will go back and warn a bunch of worlds and Shadow's group will go and try to find Greg and John in Jhoto and also while there, warn everyone." Zelda said.

"Yeah, pretty ok with it." Pit said.

"Oh, and Link, take the Purple Chu jelly. I have a feeling you're going to need it." Zelda tossed Link the Chu stuff.

IN JHOTO…..

Zelda, Ganondorf, Marth, Shadow, Walluigi, Samus, Lucas, Ike, Trevor, Ness, Lakitu, Knuckle Joe, Dr. Wright, Stafy, Little Mac, Jeff, Wario and King Dedede were pretty much in the same place they had teleported from.

"Ok. I think we'd better warn people first." Dr. Wright said. "You know…who's even in charge here?"

Ike and Marth's eyes got wide. "C….can we go see the loves of our lives?" They squealed.

"I guess we have to." Little Mac looked worried for them.

"OH BOY!"

Marth and Ike seemed to have the ability of homing pigeons, because they lead everyone directly to the Pokémon Center.

"Where is thy future wife?" Ike asked dreamily, staggering in the door, looking like a drunk.

Nurse Joy was at the receptionists' desk, and when Ike and Marth came in, she quickly picked up the phone. "I'll call the cops!"

"Don't you remember me?" Marth looked terrified.

"Oh, don't tell me you're the guy that had that creepy crush on me." Joy muttered.

"I'm still single." Marth stated firmly. "We should go out to eat sometime!"

"Yeah, I'll think about it."

"Hi, sorry to interrupt, but we've got something to tell you." Zelda said. "There were two guys here earlier in the forest over there…and they were catching Pokémon by the dozens."

"We think that Jhoto might be in trouble. Pokémon thieves have come again." Trevor said.

"We think you should put the entire place in alert, and keep an eye out for these two."

"What do they look like?" Joy asked.

Trevor and Zelda quickly described them while Joy banged the description into the computer at lightning speed.

"Ok, got it. We'll keep a lookout." Joy said. "Thank you for telling me."

"Thank you for being here!" Marth was madly in love.

"Ok, Marth. You too Ike. We're leaving now." Samus grabbed Marth by his cape and dragged him out the door.

BACK IN HYRULE….

Link, Meta Knight, Sonic, Pit, Sar'John, Tingle, Kat, Ana, Kirby, Mario, Lyn, Goroh, Saki, Jill, Luigi, Fox, Falco, Pikachu and Lucario were still arguing over where to head first.

"We definitely don't want any Yoshi in The Games." Mario said. "they're creepy. We should head to the Mushroom Kingdom first."

"No way, short guy. We're heading to our place. We've got guys that look like Kirby and I running all over the place. They could be in real danger." Meta Knight said, who wasn't any taller than Mario.

"If you ask me we are so going to my world." Sonic said.

"But nobody asked you, did they?" Mario said.

"Pika! Pika! Pikachu!" Pikachu yelled. "Pi! Pika Pi!"

"What's he saying?" Tingle asked.

"What is the total population of your worlds, as far as you know?" Lucario translated.

"Over five billion." Mario said.

"About." Luigi confirmed.

"Nearly that much too." Meta Knight said.

"Around three billion." Sonic said. "I lose, don't I? We're going to the Mushroom Kingdom, aren't we?"

"Yep. Let's go." Link pulled the green stone out of his pocket. "Mushroom Kingdom!"

FLASH!

"Ok, Mario, who's in charge here?' Link asked.

"We're going to Princess Peach's castle. We're buds, so she'll listen to us." Mario said, heading off in a direction. "Come on!"

Everyone followed him for a while. Along the way to the castle, they ran into three Goombas, two Hammer Bros, and countless trees.

"OW MY NOSE!" Fox screamed.

"Relax, tough guy. We're nearly there." Luigi said.

Soon everyone saw a huge castle in the distance.

"That's a nice castle." Meta Knight commented.

Pretty soon they were in the nice castle.

"Princess Peach, we come with a warning." Mario said.

"What is it?" Peach asked. "Are there invaders?"

"Yes." Luigi said. "They-"

"They're capturing people for something called The Games. We think they fight to the death there, but we're not sure. Your entire kingdom should be on the lookout for two called Greg and John." Pit interrupted.

"Ok. Could they show up at any time?" Peach asked.

"Any time." Mario said. "Your people could be in danger. All the Yoshi may be at a particular risk."

Peach nodded. "Thank you for warning me. We will be on the lookout."

Mario and Luigi stepped down in a deep bow. "Thank you, your Highness."

TWO MINUETS LATER….

"Next stop…uh…." Link muttered. "What's your world called?"

"Just say The City. It'll know where to go." Meta Knight said.

Hey, listen you! Be careful where you're going! This place is loaded with danger!

"Hi, Author Lady!" Jill said happily.

I mean it! You think that Jhoto was bad with Greg and John? Just you wait. That was cake compared to what you're about to see. I am illegally contacting you, because I'm just suppost to show up when you get a useless item. But this is a warning! Be on your guard. Do not turn your back. And DO NOT get lost. You hear me? I can't save you and neither can Zelda. That goes for you, Link.

Link's face was red.

So go have fun in your little city.

With that, the weird author's voice was gone.

"What does she mean?" Jill sounded worried.

"Nothing. We'll be fine." Link said. "To The City!"

IN THE CITY….

"OH MY GAH!"

Everyone had landed on top of what looked like the tallest business building, and all around them was covered in lava. In the distance a huge volcano was erupting.

"THE CITY!" Meta Knight yelled. "What happened to the city? That volcano was never suppost to erupt!"

"What do we do?" Falco asked, looking around. "I see an ocean! If we get to it, could we get to another part of this world?"

"We could. Islands are not very far from one another, at least only a mile away." Meta said. "We just need stuff to build a boat."

Fox took his blaster and carved off a piece of the building. "How about this? We can take turns swimming alongside the boat if we have to."

"I'll fly it over." Meta Knight grabbed the piece of the building and took off towards the ocean.

"Pit, Sar'John, you're gonna have to fly everyone over." Ana said. "Kat and I aren't that strong."

TWENTY MINUETS OF ARGUING LATER….

"Ok, let's set sail!" Link said, using a beam of a building as a oar.

"Why did we have to take a boat? Why can't we just teleport over to the island? Why am I in this group? Why did the volcano erupt? Why am I seasick? Why am-" Sonic threw up over the side of the boat.

"Link, you need to relax with the oar." Falco said. "You're rocking the entire thing."

"Sorry." Link looked amused. "Why don't you drive? I wanna swim."

Falco wasn't much better. He kept making the boat go in circles. Sonic threw up again.

"Ok, this is not working."

Ana grabbed the oar from him. "This is how you do it."

To put it mildly, she was THE BEST CAPTAIN OF THE MAKESHIFT BOAT EVER.

They reached the nearest island without too much more trouble.

"You go on ahead. I'll just throw my guts up." Sonic was a nasty shade of green.

"Maybe you should give him some of that Chu jelly." Kat whispered to Link.

"And have him throw it up and waste it? I don't think so." Link said. "This is reserved for anyone who's strictly dying."

Lyn ended up staying behind to guard the boat and Sonic.

Everyone else tried to not get eaten by mosquitoes.

Eventually they came to a small village.

"Wow, this place is nice." Jill remarked.

"Yeah." Meta Knight said. "Hurry, we have to find the people in charge."

They wondered a bit until they found a City Hall. Kirby knocked on the door and someone answered it. "Hi. Who're you?"

The guy had an afro of red hair and dark sunglasses. He kinda resembled Greg and John.

"We have to warn you." Meta Knight said. "There are two people that have been kidnapping people for something called The Games. We need everyone to be on the lookout so they don't get anyone else and so we can stop them."

"Really." The guy said. "What are their names?"

"Greg and John." Link said. "Buff guys. Really tall. You'll know them when you see them."

"Now that you mention it, people have said things about seeing two odd people on the island over there…" The guy pointed in a direction. There was an island not too far off. "…Said they heard screams and then absolute silence."

"We'd better check it out, then."

"Good luck, and be careful."

They headed back to the boat and found Lyn carving designs in a tree and Sonic snoring in the boat.

"This time, Link and Falco, Ana drives the entire way." Lyn growled. "I nearly threw up too."

"Fine." Link and Falco looked rejected.

They cast off the shore and began to drift towards the island that wasn't too far off.

"I saw something!" Meta Knight shouted from the sky, where he was flying. "Something in the water! Everyone in the boat! NOW!"

Everyone scrambled onto the boat in no time flat.

That was when a HUGE sea-monster thing burst through the surface right next to the boat.

"WHAAAA!" Luigi nearly fell into the water but Jill grabbed his overalls.

"I'M AWAKE NOW! WHAT'S HAPPENING?" Sonic yelled.

"PIKA PI!" Pikachu screamed.

"That's a Gyarados! A dragon type Pokémon!" Lucario translated.

"What's it doing here?" Saki screamed.

Lucario didn't reply because the Gyarados crashed into the water next to their boat, sending them nearly toppling over into the water.

"We need to teleport out of here!" Meta Knight screamed. "This was a set up! I just know it!"

Link grabbed the strange stone out of his pocket, but before he could utter a word the Gyarados crashed up nearly underneath the boat. Everyone just barely managed to hold on.

"THE STONE!" Link yelled. "It fell into the water!"

"I'll get it!" Sonic dived off the end of the boat.

Everyone sat there.

"…Did he just forget he can't swim?" Link asked with a horrified expression on his face.

The Gyarados roared and crashed down on top of the boat.

"AAGH!" Pit and Sar'John dived into the water too. "We're going to die! Our feathers will get waterlogged and we'll drown too!"

"Relax! No one's going to die!" Lyn hissed. "Keep that Gyarados away from me, ok? I'm going to get Sonic!"

She dived underwater and everyone else tried to wield a sword in the water without sinking.

"Back, you evil snake thing! Or I'll cut you to ribbons!" Ana threatened.

The Gyarados roared at them and tried to eat Kirby. But Kirby grabbed its tongue and refused to let go.

"RRROOOOAAARRR!"

"POOOOYOOO!" Kirby wailed.

"It's ok, Kirby! We'll save you!" Kat flew into the Gyarados' mouth and there was a slicing noise.

Everyone turned away because they were pretty sure she had just cut its tongue off.

Then Lyn's head broke the surface of the water. She took a gasping breath, held the stone up in the air and screamed, "MOBIUS!"

FLASH….

Everyone was in the middle of a sunny field.

"Someone please tell me I was dreaming all of that." Link looked freaked out.

"I don't know what to think right now." Fox muttered.

"Um…guys?" Lyn asked. "I think Sonic's dead."

"Is that a good thing?" Link asked.

Falco whacked him with a blaster.

"OW!"

"Link, give me that Chu jelly!" Lyn demanded. "Right now!"

"But we don't know what it'll do! It could REALLY kill him if he's not dead yet!" Link started to get worried.

"And it could save him!" Lyn countered.

"It could even do nothing!"

"We just have to risk it!"

Link gave her the bottle of the stuff.

"So you're gonna force-feed him that stuff?" Jill asked.

"It's the only thing I can think of at the moment." Lyn said. She pretty much jammed the stuff down Sonic's throat.

"Sonic? Can you hear me?" Lyn asked.

Sonic didn't do anything.

"Oh, no…" Kirby gasped.

"Breathe, Sonic! Breathe!" Lyn slapped him.

What happened next took place in about two seconds. Sonic's left pinky twitched, he coughed up a lungful of water and three fish, and then started snoring.

"WA HOO!" Link practically did a happy dance. "Great job, Lyn! You could be a doctor!"

Lyn sat back heavily in the grass, looking relieved. "Wow…most of that relied on luck…"

For the next thirty seconds everyone partied and then passed out on account of joy and exhaustion.

IN JHOTO....

Zelda, Ganondorf, Marth, Shadow, Walluigi, Samus, Lucas, Ike, Trevor, Ness, Lakitu, Knuckle Joe, Dr. Wright, Stafy, Little Mac, Jeff, Wario, Wolf and King Dedede were epically bored.

"I've told you a million times, they're not around here!" Ganondorf yelled at Zelda.

"Ok, then! We go back to the Dark Forest and wait!" Zelda gave in. "Come on everyone!"

So they teleported back to the Dark Forest with all its sights and sounds. Sights: Purple fog and creepy plants with teeth. Sounds: Things dying in the fog.

It was rather creepy.

But Ganondorf felt right at home.

"I still don't know how we couldn't have heard them teleport. There wasn't a flash of light or anything like it did with us." Jeff said.

"Maybe there really is a secret way somewhere in the fog…" Trevor said. "Come on, Charizard. We're looking again."

"I'm coming too." Samus and Snake said at the same time.

They looked around the fog for a very long time, but still, nothing.

"Gah, where could they have gone?" Snake muttered.

"I don't know. This is really weird." Trevor looked at a tree. "careful to not go too far away from Charizard. The fog 'll suffocate you or something."

Pretty soon Zelda called them all back to eat some lunch.

"We still couldn't find anything." Samus informed everyone over some tuna sandwiches. "It's literally like they just vanished."

"Well, when Link's group gets back maybe we can come up with something." Walluigi said.

Everyone sat in a deformed circle for what seemed like forever. Then….

"GRASS SNAKE!" Lucas screamed, throwing a grass snake in a random direction.

It bit Shadow's ear and refused to let go.

"AAGH! GET IT OFF!"

Snake grabbed the snake's tail and yanked for all he was worth. There was the sounding of ripping cartilage.

"Oh, THANK YOU, Mr. Obvious! YOU JUST RIPPED HALF OF MY EAR OFF!" Shadow shouted. "I'LL RIP YOUR HEAD OFF!"

Zelda put him in a headlock and healed his ear with her magical powers and stuff. "Snake, put the grenade away."

Snake shrugged and put the grenade away. "That was just in case."

Suddenly Ganondorf sprung up from the ground and began dancing, from whatever everyone could tell. "IT'S IN MY PANTS!"

Everyone fell down laughing so hard they couldn't breathe.

Ganondorf's funky dance lasted about half a minuet, and by that time nearly everyone's face was beat red.

"That. Is. Not. Funny." Ganondorf growled.

"My face hurts!" Ike gasped.

"Yeah, it's killing me too." Ganondorf hissed evilly.

Let's leave this glorious scene and move on to the other guys…

ON MOBIUS…..

"Wow. Actually, that was actually very good luck." Link said after everyone slowly got up from their catnaps. "We only had one near-medical crisis."

Lyn rolled her eyes. "I didn't see you trying to do anything, hero."

"Hey, I was being attacked by a dragon thing. What was I suppost to do?" Link acted all macho but failed.

"Can we keep going to warn everyone?" Kat asked, yawning.

"We'd better get going, then." Lucario said, getting up.

Saki nudged Sonic with his foot. "Hey, wake up. You didn't die, did you?"

"Wha…? Where are we? I thought we were on a boat…" Sonic muttered.

"Well, now we're in a field. On Mobius. Get up, we have to warn people."

"I thought I drowned…"

"Lyn force-fed you the purple Chu jelly and you lived. Now get up."

"Ok."

Eventually everyone woke up and they tried to find the end of the field thing.

"Poyo." Kirby pointed to some trees in the distance.

"Yey, trees." Pit said.

After about half an hour of walking they made it to the trees.

"Ok, now we just have to find who's in charge. Who even is in charge anyway? Do you guys have a president, or-" Goroh got cut off by a shout of "HELP!" up ahead.

"Come on!" Saki grabbed his gun and took off through the trees.

"Wait up!" Sar'John squeaked. "What if it's another creepy Pokémon?"

"Yeah, no offence to Trevor, but I hate Pokémon now." Fox shivered even though it was rather warm.

"Be quiet!" Link ducked behind some bushes.

Everyone carefully peeked out though them to see Saki hiding behind some bushes up ahead. He motioned for everyone to go over to him.

So everyone was like a ninja and sneaked over.

"Look." Saki said.

Everyone looked to see…guess who….

Greg and John. And they had another cage thing like they had in Jhoto, only this time it wasn't loaded with Pokémon. Instead, it held a small yellow fox with two tails.

"Oh, no." Sonic muttered. "They got Tails!"

"Help!" Tails yelled. "Anyone!"

"Be quiet. We're taking you to The Games." Greg sneered evilly. "Don't even try to escape."

Saki jumped out from the bushes. "Let him go or I'll shoot you."

"Hey, aren't you one of those guys?" John asked.

"What's it to you? Let him go. We know The Games are evil."

Greg took the green stone out of his pocket. "Come and get us then."

Sonic jumped out of the bush and ran over to Greg, grabbed the stone, and retreated a safe distance back.

"Wha…?" Greg looked confused. "What just happened?"

"Sonic! Help me!" Tails yelled. "They want to take me to The Games, whatever that is."

"Trust me, you don't want to go there." Saki muttered. "let him go and you can have your stone back."

John went over to the cage thing's lock. But instead of unlocking it, he suddenly turned and aimed a weird looking gun thing at Sonic.

The stone flew out of his hand and into John's. "How bout that, huh? Great technology these days."

He aimed the gun at Link and his stone flew out of his pocket.

"Now if you back up really slowly you can get your stone back." Greg sneered.

Saki glanced at Lucario. "Back up." Lucario whispered.

Saki and Sonic backed up three steps.

"Ok, then." Greg said. "Give them their stone back, John."

John nodded, turned, and smashed the stone on a nearby rock. It broke into fifteen pieces exacally. He threw them at Link. "I didn't say how I'd give them back…"

"YOU BACKSTABBER!" Tingle screeched.

Meta Knight charged at them, sword drawn and flying as fast as he could.

"EARTH!" John yelled.

"NOO! SONIC!" Tails yelled as he, Greg and John vanished. Meta Knight skittered to a stop.

Everyone stood there in shock.

"What just happened just happened, right?" Jill whispered.

"We're stranded here?" Kat asked.

"They took my best friend!" Sonic yelled. "We have to after them! We have to!"

"But we can't! The stone is broken!" Link gasped.

"Now what?" Ana whispered.

"I don't know." Goroh admitted. "I just don't know…"
