"Laddieees and gentlemenn, it is time for annootheer..TOOOUURRNNAMMENNT!" the man sang to the crowd-filled stadium. The man was completely human, mid-aged donning a suit and shades. His hair was combed back and had a white streak in it. His face was full of masked scars. The man goes by the alias Mr. Riisoko, and he's here to host this upcoming Smash tournament. Beyond the host lies an os-so familiar stadium, filled with the greenest of grass, lively people and confetti. Out in the distance, a group of fighters warm themselves up by the empty set of bleachers. The man in the red and blue overalls spoke Italian to his twin brother who then carried the conversation. Luigi jumps off the bleachers with a stylish thumbs-up pose, shouting "Oh yeah!"

"When is Mr. Riisoko gonna start this thing?" Sonic said in a fit of impatience.

"Silly impatient hedgehog," Wario teased as Sonic smirked back at him. The hedgehog does a quick leg stretch on the grassy ground, then flexes his lean arms, bouncing lightly off the ground after.

"Woo! Can't wait for this!" Sonic cheered.

Every competitor stood in a horizontal line, ready to race. The crowd waves their flags like crazy as the race begins to intiate. Sonic and Mario give each other a stare before eyeing ahead. The host of this tournament, Mr. Riisoko shoots a bullet into the air and everyone sprints off.

"Goooo!" Sonic yells as he trails ahead of everyone, beating everyone by a landslide.

"Not fair! It's his shoes!" Dark Pit argued.

"Hey dude, they don't call me Sonic the Hedgehog for nothing!" Sonic bragged, all the while with a huge stupid grin on his face.

"How about a shooting competition?" Inkla proposed to Mr. Riisoko.

"I know you're new to this and all, but I'm afraid not. There's just too many of you.." Mr. Riisoko told the young Inkling girl.

Someone coughs from the group of fighters, startling Mr. Riisoko's shades off slightly.

"Oh!" Riisoko shouted with a finger snap. "How could I almost miss this? The announcement!"

"Huh?" Corrin said.

"..Yeah," Mr. Riisoko continued as he nods impatiently. "Our new entrants for the hyper ultimate tournament are here!"

The crowd becomes hyped up again as Mr. Riisoko blows his whistle.

"...Annnd they are...Ridley...Inklings...and Daisy!" he finished as the crowd goes nuts again.

"Hi, I'm Daisy!" Daisy cheers as Wario gives her a cruel stare.

"What?" Daisy says to Wario.

"Heheheh, they just allow anybody in these games?" he mocked as Daisy frowns.

"I'm not just anybody, I'm a proven princess! I've been doing it all- sports, oympics, racing, you name it!"

"Whatever. I'm going to win the games and go back as the rightful owner of the crowned title. The King of Smashers!" Bowser brags to Daisy.

"Like we'd really let you!" Peach objected as Bowser laughs.

"Whatever losers," Bowser Junior retorted as he, Bowser, and all the other Koopalings share a laugh.

"Ook! Ook! (How dare you!)" Donkey Kong cried out.

Bowser sizes Ridley up. "Heh, after I proved I'm better than those apes for the third time straight, you look to be a worthy rival."

Ridley stares into Bowser's pupils with a souless stare.

Bowser chuckles. "What's wrong? Can't communicate? D'aw, hahahahahahah!"

Ridley bares his teeth out before picking up Bowser by the shell.

"NO!" Peach screams, leaving the space dragon no other option than to throw him down forcefully.

Bowser crawls to his feet with the help of the Koopalings. They all take out their hammers as Ridley bares even more teeth.

"I've seen enough," Samus mumbled as she aimed for a clear shot at her long-time nemesis.

Mario jumps in front of Ridley and opens his arms out wide, ensuing a pause from the bounty-hunter.

"Out of my way. I'm not afraid to shoot," Samus said with a cruel and chilling tone.

Mario shakes his head before speaking Italian gibberish to Luigi. Luigi nods then pleads on the ground, begging Samus.

Samus rolls her eyes. "Okay, I refrain from harm. What is it that you want?"

Mario speaks more gibberish which starts up Samus' blank stare into the plumber's eyes.

"Well, basically, he said that we should all be friends towards another, and not to resort to action until the fighting tournament actually begins," Peach replied in her usual soft-toned voice.

"Maybe you all. Me? Maybe not, not with that monster on the loose around here," Samus told the residents of the Mushroom Kingdom without taking her eyes off Ridley. "That beast is untamed. He won't listen to anyone. I don't even know how he could have possibly came to the tournament to compete, let alone sign up and be accepted."

"Tch. What will he even do with the prize?" Pit remarked.

A ear-ringing roar from Ridley causes Pit to scurry on behind Palutena. The goddess giggles as Pit gasps.

"Lady Palutena?" Pit groaned rhetorically.

"Sorry Pit, every man's for themselves. Go get em'!" she joked as she pulled Pit in front of her.

Pit shakes in his sandals. "N-no! He h- it hates me now! ..I think.."

As everyone has their fun and mocking games, the sky gets darker and the crowd begins to leave the stadium.

"Heheh, guess it's time to head inside now, isn't it?" Pit asked nervously.

Mr. Riisoko grins. "You bet it is! Now everyone, get back into your designated rooms now until dinner is ready!"

Inklo double-takes. "Wh-wha? We live here now?"

The host Mr. Riisoko lets out a hearty laugh. "Yeah, buddy! Until the tournament is over..and we have a winner."

"Basically, we leave on my time, squirt," Bowser threatened at the Inklings as they have a stare-off with the king of the Koopas.

"Please, back to your rooms NOW! ..While I work on the dinner. Then I'll ring you dude-os in and you can feast upon my feast," the host announced. Shortly every competitor in this tournament heads off into their designated rooms.

"Oh, I can't believe we all have to face off," Peach moaned in fear.

"That's the prize we have to pay for the price!" Daisy joked.

"Not funny. Someone can get hurt," Peach warned.

"Toughen UP girl," Daisy told Peach.

Peach sighs.

"You have the tools in your arsenal. Don't be afraid to thwomp the Koopa king where it hurts..or me, when we get to that point of time," Daisy brought up again.

"I don't know.." Peach uttered as Toad appeared from thin air.

"Don't worry princess! I'm with you all the way!" he said.

Peach smiles at him softly. "Thank you. Delighted to hear that."

Daisy smirks. "Don't be. I have some tricks up my sleeves too!"

Wario folds his arms and enters the room. Everyone else gives him strange looks, but he shrugs and burps.

"Ew, gross!" Daisy barked.

"Hahahah! Grossed out by a burp? You girly might not even make it alive for long out there!" Wario retorted.

"I doubt anyone out there is using highly gross tactics to win, besides you. We all know you by now, Mr. Wario sir!" Daisy said.

Wario hops onto his bed with his moneybags before greeted by the presence of the Kongs entering the room, along with everybody else.

"Ook! (We can do this. We can make it to the finals!") Diddy screeched at Donkey.

"Oookkie! Ook! (You know me by now. I'll do whatever it takes to win, even if it means antagonizing Mario once more," said Donkey.

"Seems like everyone's serious about winning this tourney, right?!" Daisy asked as she places her hands on hips.

"Oh yeah!" Mario cheered as a deep-smelling aroma hits his moustache and his mouth. It tickles the plumber's nostrils- the smell of delicious meatballs, the aroma of spaghetti, the vision of tomato sauce. It was lots of spaghetti, prepared by their seemingly-benevolent host Mr. Riisoko. The Mario gang and everybody else head to the culinary stage.

Greeting the Smashers was a long table full of spaghetti and meatballs, ravioli, buttered bread, beans, spinach, whole turkey, water, and everything else you could imagine that was deemed feast-worthy. Each Smash Brother took their seat and helped theirselves to various foods and drinks. Discussion began from throughout the culinary room.

"This turkey is delicious," Dark Pit muttered as Pit had the grin on his face, that of a jackass.

"Ooh, someone's getting on the host's good side, are they?" Pit teased as Dark Pit rised from his seat.

"I'm not!" Dark Pit yelled as he banged his fists on the table. Falco quickly climbs the table and kicks the turkey off the plate.

Dark Pit grunts. "What was that for?!"

Falco pants. "That looked like a bird. ..The host really had no nerve to intentionally feed us bird meat, did he?"

Mr. Riisoko gulps. "Uh, no. I have to go now, um, dishes. Wash some dishes. I'll be back, er, sometime later.."

The host runs away while Dark Pit and Falco glare at each other one last time before returning to feasting.

"This is quite the meal, if I must admit," Ike mumbled.

"You've said it!" Corrin cheers at Ike as the prince bites into his meatball sandwich.

Link eats in silence as he stares up, only to see Ganondorf's eyes peering straight through him. Almost as if Link was some sort of glass wall.

"Hahah!" Ganondorf laughed as he banged his fist on the table, causing the princess to gasp.

"What an evil man," Shiek uttered to Link. "He intends on ruining the feast."

"Not on my watch," Corrin exclaimed.

Shiek nudges Corrin. "It's fine..he's under my control."

Ganon flicks his cape in front of him and rises to his feet in laughter.

"Just when you thought this guy couldn't get any creepier!" Pit wailed out.

Ganon smirks at the guardian angel. "Is that some mere threat, by a mere child?"

Pit shivers in place. "N-no, it isn't!"

Palutena nudges Pit hard causing the angel to rub his shoulder.

"I mean, it is! I'm not scared of you. Or anyone here! I'll even face off against Lady Palutena..well, if I have to," Pit uttered loudly in the Gerudo King's presence.

"Ohohoho! That's so sweet of you," Palutena cheered to her angelic friend.

"Whatever chump. We all know I have the manpower here—I have what it takes to win the tournament," Dark Pit assured his friendly rivals.

"Can't wait to face off against oh-so-confident Pittoo," Pit said with a grin on his face.

Peach giggles. "You outsiders sure are the talkative ones.."

"Tch. We'll see if they have the strength to back it up," Cloud added in to the conversation, with little to no remorse.

"Aw, I'm awfully full now," Shulk politely complained as conversation started to pick up again slowly but surely.

Every fighter finishes their plate of food, and heads to their designated rooms once again for rest. Tomorrow was the first official day of the tournament. On that day, Mr. Riisoko appointed new fighter spots. Arriving from the bus, Chrom, King K. Rool, Dark Samus, Simon and Richter drag their luggage inside their pre-determined rooms and then head to the training room for some prep.

"So, that was quite the bumpy ride, was it?" Chrom said to the dark Metroid, who peered into his soul without word.

"Hm, not a talker, eh?" Chrom joked.

"Eh em!" someone said as King K Rool nudges Chrom and Simon.

K. Rool grunts. "All that traveling has tired me down. Also..is that monkey I smell?"

Chrom's eyes widen. "H-huh?"

K. Rool sniffs the air, and keeps on sniffing and sniffing until he bumps into Mario and company, headed out into the fields.

"Watch your step," K Rool warned towards the plumber in front of the pack.

"Pff, what a wimp!" Bowser smack-talked towards the crocodile as K Rool grins hard.

"Yeah, talk about wimp!" K Rool bragged as he nudges Bowser. Bowser pushes K Rool's arm away.

"YOU'RE the wimp, pal!" Bowser barked at K Rool, urging Rool to standoff with him.

"Grrrr.." K Rool growled as Bowser Junior stood in between them.

"I hate to postpone a good beatdown but not until the tournament please!" Junior urged the two.

Bowser chuckles. "He has a point. I'm coming for you in the tournament. You can run, but you can never hide."

Diddy Kong gasps as he and Donkey Kong eye their long-time foe from a distance.

K Rool's eyes get redder and redder. "THERE YOU ARE!"

Donkey and Diddy approach K Rool as Donkey beats his chest. Diddy hops on Donkey's shoulder and balls up his fists.

K Rool laughs maniacally. "No no! Not until it starts, heheh. There's no teams so you can hop off of his shoulder now."

"Kept you waiting for long, huh?" Mr. Riisoko says as Snake glares at him in awe.

"Hm?" Lucina uttered.

"Day one of the tournament, begins. This instant!" Mr. Riisoko announced as the audience began to fill in the bleachers. Various crowd chants cue one by one as the fighters prep their weapons, and their fists. Every fighter goes at it in a huge frantic, chaotic brawl. As everyone focuses on the war at hand, a huge purple beam of lightning bolts the grassy ground, striking a few fighters bar the agile Mario. The crowd begins a fleeing frenzy, running for their lives.

"Mario?" Luigi uttered loudly as he shook in his boots. The elder plumber gives off an unaudible gasp, his mouth gapped wide open and his pupils enlarged.

"Oh no!" Peach cries out as a cloaked figure in a black coat hovers over their host Mr. Riisoko. The mysterious being places his palm on Mr. Riisoko, draining his energy away.

"Hahah!" an innocent voice giggles as Mario and Link look all around.

Ashley and Waluigi appear from behind the cloak and are greeted by dramatic gasps.

"Wahahahahah!" Waluigi laughed.

"It's not funny. You really hurt Mr. Riisoko!" Daisy yelled.

"Relax, relax princess! It's no harm in done," Ashley revealed to the fighters.

"Really? Because that looked like it hurt the poor guy," Roy objected as he and Marth helps Mr. Riisoko up to his feet.

"Agh, thank you, kind swordsmen," Riisoko muttered as he grips his elbow in pain.

"N-not fair! He's showing favoritism! Bias!" Wario barked out loud.

"Easy. They're just helping me out," Mr. Riisoko assured the man in yellow-overalls.

"I still don't understand your reasoning for the strike attack," Ike told Ashley and Waluigi, bringing up the previous matter.

"Waluigi don't need reason!" Waluigi argued.

"Hm.." Ike pondered to himself.

"Just a light joke!" Ashley added. "Up to completely nothing at all."

"Yeah. Nothing at all," said Shadow the Hedgehog with an eerie grin planted on his face.

Sonic gasps. "What are you doing hiding behind that tree, Shadow? What are you up to?"

Shadow grunts. "I said nothing Sonic. Stay out of my way!"

Mr. Riisoko grins, bearing his teeth. "Yeah Sonic, stay out of his way!"

Sonic's eyes widen. "What? Mr. Rii—"

The host hits Sonic, Mario, Wario and Princess Peach with an energy ball.

"Guhh!" Mario let out.

"Rrrrghhh!" Wario growls as Waluigi claps.

"Wow, I'm suprised the big-time fighters can manage to take a hit," Waluigi teased at the weakened heroes.

"Color me surprised," Magnus mumbled under his breath.

Pit squints his eyes while staring down hard at Magnus. The heavy swordsman rolls his eyes and sighs.

"MAGNUS? What are you doing here?" Pit asked.

Magnus sighs again. "Hey man, my mission wasn't to speak to you—in fact. It was much worse than that.."

"Hm?" Nana said.

"It was to kill you all. All of us. We're the Assists in case you didn't notice. Reason? Heh, we have reason enough to hunt you down!" Magnus brags.

Nana and Popo shake in fear as Mario hops in front of Magnus.

Magnus raises his sword. "Think we're scared of you 'cuz you got a mustache, pal?"

Mario hops and gets into battle position.

"Everyone on your best. Can't fail the master or else," Lyn ordered.

"Familiar. She looks..familiar," Ike said out loud as Roy steps by his side.

"That's Lady Lyndis, Ike. Lyn! Why are you acting like this?" Roy cried out.

"We told you—there is no reason..for you to reason with us!" Lyn shouted back at the redhead while unsheathing her sword.

"..No. I don't want to fight you," Roy said softly.

"Well I will," Ike yelled as he rushed straight for the swordmaster. She flips over him and rapidly strikes Ike until he slams her off of him using his shoulder. Lyn gets up to her feet and wipes the dust off her cheek as she grips her katana tighter now. As they continue to fight, various fighters are conflicted in their little own brawls.

Phosphora whistles to her teammates, codenamed as the Assists. "Doesn't matter if we recognize them, we gotta carry on with the task."

Ghirahim licks his lips. "Mm, I'm trying darling. Won't stop me from having my fun and games when the time calls for it."

Link and Sheik corner Ghiraham as he snaps his fingers. Out comes Skull Kid from the shadows.

Skull Kid dances in the air with chuckles as he summons his fairies.

"Hnnnghh!" Ganondorf yelled out as he struck the air. Skull Kid dodges every strike and warps behind Ganondorf, kicking Ganondorf into Link.

Link turns around aggressively and eyes Ganon with a stare.

Ganon smirks at him, raising his sword. Link stands firm in place as Sheik handles Skull Kid.

"What are YOU looking at?" barked Ganondorf.

Link turns around only to get hit in the back with a glowing sphere of energy. The courageous hero unleashes mayhem on the king, stabbing him as Young Link and Toon Link breaks it up.

Toon Link gasps as Zelda and Sheik runs towards them all.

"Link, no! Although you may not trust the man, Ganondorf is the least of our concern," Sheik addressed to Link as he fought off Skull Kid in the process.

Ganon slowly kips back up to his feet and unleashed a huge sphere of dark energy on the Links and Zelda, knocking them out.

Sheik rushes towards Ganondorf. "No!"

Ganondorf kicks Sheik away as he unleashes sphere on random heroes, sphere by sphere knocking them down.

Phosphora's eyes widen. "Wow, a commendable tratior..let's hightail it out of here fellow Assists!"

Ganondorf flicks his cape around him as he slowly vanishes. While the Assists escape, everyone else recovers.

Chrom places his palm on his throbbing forehead. "..Ugh, we've failed."

"Big time," Robin uttered.

Lucina frowns. "No, I'm sure that won't be the last of them we'll see. I can sense it..."

Shulk cups his chin. "Huh? Really?"

Lucina nods.

"It's all that man's fault. Blasting us with his stupid energy balls!" Pit groaned as Palutena rubs his head of hair.

"Aw, think of this as time to recover I guess," Palutena suggested to her angel friend.

"We should have seen this coming," Marth uttered in slight sadness.

"Tch of course. There's way too many of us! We're a target. A big, obvious, stupid, idiotic, smelly, target," Dark Pit said with a grunt.

"What was their deal anyway? You know, the Assists?" Corrin brought up.

"No idea," Kamui answered.

"If any idea of yours involves Shadow, leave it to me!" Sonic announced.

"Something tells me Mr. Riisoko is not quite right," Ms. Wii Fit added.

"Hm, no kidding Miss," Falco said. "They got our ally Krystal in this mess as well.

Wolf folds his arms. "I sincerely hope this doesn't mean I have to work with you guys.. Star Fox.."

Fox stretches his arms out. "Agh, this will be a piece of cake. Then I win the tournament, as always, and take the prize home. It's so simple!"

"How about a training exercise? To soothe everyone's muscles?" Ms. Wii Fit asked the heroes.

"Eh, why not?" Ryu uttered with a modest nod.

Everyone returns to the training room to get patched up and soothe their muscles with the Wii Fit Trainers.

"Wow, this was really refreshing. Thanks you guys!" Daisy cheered to the trainers.

"No problem!" said Mr. Wii Fit Trainer. "This doesn't mean we forfeit our will to do whatever it takes to win the tournament.

Daisy blushes in silence as Bayonetta enters the training room.

"Annnd, late," Meta Knight muttered.

Bayonetta groans. "Always, always. Oh well, I'll go back to what I do best. Hunting."

Sweat drips from Pit's forehead as he shivers nervously. "Hunting what?"

Bayonetta observes Pit's wings. "We meet again, angel!"

Pit groans. "Leave me alone!"

"Cut the act. Whatever you're trying to accomplish," Dark Pit barked at Bayonetta.

"..P-Pittoo. You may not be so bad after all," Pit nervously joked.

"Palutena approaches the Pits. "Not gonna harm my angels."

Dark Pit smirks a little. "Thanks, but no thanks, really. I can handle myself. Whatever Pit can do I can do ten times as better!"

Pit sighs. "Annnd now he's back to hating me again..."

Bayonetta rolls her eyes. "It's a shame I have no care for that. I came for the tournament that's taking place."

"Pff, you're late. It's been crashed. By a group called Assists," Cloud mumbled to Bayonetta.

King K Rool balls his fists up. "Don't forget, they're a group of PUNKS called Assists!"

"Who only managed to stop us by Ganondorf's traitorous interference. But that is to be highly expected," Sheik added.

Bayonetta eyes the group. "..Ah, I'm getting a realization. You all, are quite the fighters. Surely I mean it, I don't go out of my way for false flattery. I look forward to facing you all when the tournament predicament is situated."

"Same here," Richter replied.

"Now..if only we could keep an eye on those so-called Assists..." Fox conveniently brought up to discussion.

Kirby raises his palm up and hops up and down as everyone looks at him. He takes a warp star and warps everybody to Dream Land. It's going to be a wild air ride!
