Chapter 1: Newcomer
Everyone waited eagerly for the newcomer to arrive through the mansion's doors. Excited chatter filled the room, even though no one knew exactly who they were talking about. Except for two winged boys. Dark Pit was livid. Out of everyone who could be invited to fight, she had to be one of them. Soon she would fly in and once again, make his life a living hell.
"Be nice to your twin Dark Pit!
I can't believe you sided with Phosphora over me in Monopoly! How could you?"
"Why are you always so mean to me?"
No matter how mad she seemed to be, she quickly got over it and pulled a fast one on him. Dark Pit sighed. If only there was a way to prevent her from joining him and the rest of the Smashers, but alas, Dark Pit didn't have enough time to come up with something good. He sighed once more. He guessed that if there was no way get rid of her, he would just have to learn to accept her. But as he pondered over the idea, a ghost of a smirk made its way across his lips. Until he learned to accept her, he concluded, he would just bother her mercilessly. His smirk grew. Maybe her presence in the mansion wouldn't be as bad as he initially thought it would be.
On the other hand, Pit absolutely loved that fact that his Goddess of Light was returning to him once again. She was basically Pit's and Dark Pit's mother! Their bond was so strong that he wouldn't hesitate to face battle if it meant ensuring her safety. Although one thing concerned Pit; he didn't want to hurt his beloved Goddess. He thought back to the time when the Chaos Kin had the Goddess under control, and Pit had to fight her to save her. But that was a one time thing. Now they would be fighting each other all the time, but with good intentions. Pit was also curious about her true fighting style. The fight with the Chaos Kin controlling her didn't count because she wasn't in her right mind. Pit wondered what new moves she had learned while he was here. With this in mind, Pit was ecstatic to reunite with her.
Everyone instantly lowered their voices and eventually stopped talking all together as soon as they saw Master Hand enter through the main doors.
"There has been a lot of talk about the new Smasher. Are they human? Is it a boy or a girl? Are they tall? Short? Are they an adult or a child? I am here to tell you some general information about our new female contestant." It stated rather loudly.
The girls all cheered and high-fived one another.
"In addition, the name of our new Smasher is Palutena. She is a goddess, the Goddess of Light and Ruler of Skyworld. She has been weighed around 160 pounds and is approximately 5'9. She is immortal, but takes the appearance of an young adult around 22 years old. She has a strong bond with Pit, and has a technical strong bond with Dark Pit as well. She likes to consider herself the unofficial mother the two angels standing before you. I just-"
"HA HA HA! Are you saying that the two flying twins are gonna have to fight their own mama on the battlefield! This is just too-" King Dedede fell to the ground as both Pit and Dark Pit held their bows to their sides.
The room went silent, save an awkward cough or to. Master Hand cleared his, uh, finger and resumed his message.
"Before I was so rudely interrupted, I just wanted to remind everyone to treat Palutena with the respect and friendliness she deserves. Although she is a Goddess, you shouldn't feel inclined to pay her any special treatment. But then again, she is a Goddess, so I don't think you would want to get on her bad side. Now, without further ado, Lady Palutena!" Master Hand exclaimed.
Everyone stood around the main entrance, hovering around until spotting their fellow new Smasher and staring in awe. Not one being's mouth that were looking at the Goddess of Light were closed.
