Here's the first chapter of the sequel to Ice in the Desert, Flame of the Ocean. Enjoy!
The smashers stood in front of the mansion. Since there was no time for the Tournament after Ganondorf went on a killing spree, Master Hand was restarting it. However, there were two new people there: Krystal and Alcus, who were taking Ganondorf and Falco's place in the Smash Bros. Krystal had her blaster and staff, and Alcus had a katana and a shotgun. Alcus was a young adult, who had black, shaggy hair.
Suddenly, Master Hand and his brother, Crazy Hand, rushed out of the mansion doors. Master Hand boomed, "Welcome, everyone, to the Smash Mansion! I'd like to introduce all of you to our new smashers, Krystal and Alcus, who are taking the places of Ganondorf and Falco, who were banished for their evil deeds." Everyone, especially the revived murder victims, roared with applause.
"Now, I ask all of you to go into the auditorium for an announcement. Go on, now!" Crazy Hand yelled. The smashers eventually sat down in the auditorium, Fox, Krystal, and Alcus sitting in the back.
"Now, everyone, my brother and I want to introduce you to two of the dark creatures in the galaxy to ensure protection." Master Hand said as Crazy Hand came out with a cage of two beings whose bodies were just pink lines. One of them was in the shape of a man, the other a woman.
"These are Wire Frames, creatures of the Unknown. They are immune to projectiles, as they will go right through them harmlessly. However, they are weak to fire, ice, and swords." Alcus grinned as he rubbed the handle of his katana. "Now, brother, bring out the Balkish!" Crazy Hand brought out another cage, this one holding a creature that was all black, as if charred. It hissed and its tongue came out, which made some Smashers jump. "This little fellow is immune to fire, having lived in it, but anything else fatal will do." Master Hand then told Crazy Hand to put the cages somewhere else, as the Smashers were shaking at the Balkish.
"You might be wondering why I'm showing you them." Master Hand said in an evil tone, "It's because you'll be assisting them."
The smashers murmured. What did he mean, 'assisting them'?
"This galaxy is full of evil and corruption," Master Hand said, "Thus, you all will help us bring justice to this horrible place. Together, we will find a new galaxy, one under the rule of me and my brother to ensure that no evil arises anymore. Any who oppose us will be met with death. You are the backbone of this army and soon every evil doer in the galaxy, nay the universe, will fear Master Hand and Crazy Hand's Super Smash Brothers!"
"Have you gone mad?!!?" Mario demanded, "This galaxy is already protected by us! You would have us take this galaxy over by force and put a tyrant, no two tyrants, in its charge! Do you honestly expect us to go along with this?!?!?"
"As a matter of fact," Master Hand said as he charged up a ball of energy, "I do." Suddenly, it hit almost everybody, except Krystal and Alcus, who were guarded by Fox. Everyone it hit was knocked unconscious.
Krystal screamed and was about to grab Fox, when Alcus grabbed her arm and pulled her and himself out of the auditorium.
"Fox," was all she said as she looked at the ground and began to weep.
"Look, Fox would want you to be safe, that's why he guarded us. Now, we have to get out of here, ASAP!" Alcus said.
Krystal reluctantly ran to the front doors with Alcus, and hid in the trees. "We have to save them!" Krystal yelled when they were away from the mansion. Then, they heard rustling in the bushes and saw a tall figure behind a tree. Alcus drew his katana and yelled, "Come out from there!" The figure did so. He was tall, strong, and had a sword.
It was Ganondorf.
Well, that's the first chapter. Yes, Alcus is a character we made up. Tell us what you think of the chapter in your review. Well, see you later!
