Part 1: The Rise of Subspace
Yes that's right ChaosTailsX is back! And don't think I am leaving anytime soon! (Although I might) I am happy to be back with a new story. Unfortunately, I am postponing and/or possibly ending my two other fanfictions.
I also want to point out that this story does contain OCs. Four of them too be exact. These characters will be the protagonists of this story but this does not mean I will just ignore the real characters and make them obsolete. All of the characters will show some progression.
And with that we are off. Enjoy ;)

Prologue: The Rise of Subspace
Subspace
Tabuu remained powerless within the depths of Subspace. It had been 6 years since his last battle but his defeat had left him weak and eternally imprisoned inside his own parallel realm.
He was still ruler of Subspace but with the loss of his power his kingdom of primids would soon fall.
"Bring me the captain." Tabuu ordered
in mere seconds, a primid came rushing over to the Tabuu. "What are your wishes my lord?" He asked kneeling before Tabuu.
This primid looked the same as the others, but he was blue instead of teal and he was slightly taller than the others. He also had both a laser sword and a scope rifle strapped to his back.
"Is there any way to get our army back into the world of trophies?" Tabuu asked in almost desperation.
"No my lord. We have very minimal strength with the subspace bombs and shadow bugs nearly depleted." He replied. "Our power to get into any another world is also limited as only ten soldiers would be able to enter into a single world."
Tabuu sighed in frustration as he began to truly accept his demise.
"However," The primid said standing and facing his leader. "There is one possible solution I developed."
Tabuu quickly gained interest into the primid. "What is this possible solution you speak of".
The primid walked over to a console and pressed a button. Suddenly, a dark oval-like screen appeared from the wall. The screen buzzed for a moment, but then a video of a forest covered in a purple haze appeared.
"What do the world surveillance cameras have to do with this?" The pixelated leader asked concerned. "We are already wasting too much power as it is."
"It will be all worth it" the captain said chuckling.
He then pressed another button and the screen changed into a different landscape. This time it portrayed an ocean with a tall rocky pillar sticking out of it. He shuffled through a few other worlds before stopping at one in particular
"The Origin World….?" Tabuu questioned, standing up to get a better look. It presented a city with many tall skyscrapers. There were cars crossing intersections and people walking on sidewalks. "Why are you showing me this world of pathetic weaklings?"
"They may be weak." The primid said grinning. "But they have power."
"This world isn't connected to ours though."
"But the World of Trophies is along with many others."
Tabuu stared at the screen in shock.
"We could send a group of five through the smashers' world into the human world." The captain explained. "From there, we could harness their power and send it back here giving us more than enough power to launch a stronger invasion on the smashers."
Tabuu considered this plan in his head for a while, before asking "How long have you known of this."
"T-T-threee years." The blue primid stammered.
Tabuu gave him a hard glare.
"The invasion would've been impossible until tomorrow." The primid said defending himself from Tabuu's glare.
"Why?"
"Because Master Hand formed a new Smash Tournament which is starting tomorrow. That will be the only time when their world portals will be open."
Tabuu began grinning. "Captain Blyke..." he said revealing the primids name.
"Yes?" The primid asked excitedly
"How would you like to be promoted to a General?"
The primid turned around and began cheering to himself. After his small celebration was over, he walked back to Tabuu, kneeled again and gratefully accepted his new title.
"Good." Tabuu said with a devilish grin. "You will lead a group of four into earth to harness their power and convert it into shadow bugs. Use the power you need to take over earth, then send it back here."
"But I want something in return." The newly promoted general demanded with a serious face.
"And what is that?!"
"Crazy Hand."
Tabuu considered this for a moment. "Fine, you can have Crazy Hand, but I keep Master Hand and the world of trophies. Deal?"
"Deal."
"Now leave these chambers at once." Tabuu ordered. "I have to organize preparations for tomorrow's invasion."
"Yes, master." Blyke said chuckling evilly as he exited the room.
The Commander turns and sees a portrait of Master Hand along with the previous smashers who defeated him.
"I will deal with the invasion on them myself." The Subspace Commander begins laughing maniacally. "Oh, you pathetic hand. You're in trouble now."
Chapter 1: A New Game
The next day in the Origin World.
November 21st
"Far from Subspace. Far from the world of trophies. Far from any of the smashers' homelands lived the Origin World. This is how they know it though. We know it as The Real World. And this story starts off with a dark-haired, young teen riding his bike through the empty streets of his hometown."
My name is Adam. I am an emo-looking, klutzy, unathletic, skinny, sarcastic, shy, smart and sorta nerdy sixteen year old gamer. However my life is perfectly fine. If you put aside my parents, who hardly ever know I even exist because they are constantly drunk. But what makes my life "fine" are my friends.
Adam continued through the outskirts of the town and stopped when he saw the big luxurious mansion towering over him. He proceeded through the gates and headed for the door. His finger nearly touched the doorbell before the door suddenly swung open.
"ADAM!" A blonde-haired girl screamed jumping at the boy and tackling him to the ground. The boy landed on his back (which probably would hurt a lot), but he was too happy to notice any pain. They both started laughing with blondie still pinning him to the ground. Then their lips began connecting.
This is Gemma, myyyy….. Girlfriend. She is the sweetest and prettiest girl I have ever seen. We've been best friends since grade one, but we've only been dating since the beginning of the year. It's a complicated story.
"We've been waiting for you." She said smiling, releasing her lips.
"Oh really, just me?" Adam said back, also smiling. She was still on top of him.
"Well, you and Natalie I guess." She replied laughing.
"Could you guys have waited until you were actually inside the house?" A blonde haired boy asked annoyed. "Wait. That's probably worse."
The two lovebirds stared at the irritated boy as if he was interrupting something… Because he was.
"Just finish up and get inside." He growled storming off.
That was Luke. Gemma's twin brother. It's not like he hated me or anything it's more of a…. staggered friendship one might say. Like Sonic and Shadow or Kirby and Meta Knight. Both he and Gemma lived here but they were almost always alone. Their parents left them here hoping they could care for themselves. They know what it is like to be neglected children.
Finished with their session. The two romantics stand up and proceed into the house.
"And where is my tackle?" A female voice asked from behind. They turned around to see a red-headed girl smirking at them at the end of the pathway.
"Do you want me to kiss you too Natalie?" She asked sarcastically but regretted it almost instantly. Natalie raised an eyebrow. "Sorry, don't answer that."
Natalie was the final member of the group. She was very tomboyish as she was great at many sports, she wore masculine clothes and she acted a bit like your typical guy. She was also a lesbian but no one in the group judged her because of that. She was an adopted girl who never knew of her real parents and her foster parents never really cared about her.
"You already know the answer to that anyway." She flirted as she passed the sweet blonde girl, giving her a wink. Gemma shuddered at that.
"Come on we should go upstairs." Adam said, ending the weird conflict. "Luke is already irritated as it is. Best we didn't keep him waiting."
They advanced up the stairs and proceeded into Luke's bedroom. They saw Luke waiting anxiously for their arrival. "It's about time." he said waving a blue Wii U game in front of their faces. It was Super Smash Bros. Wii U. The Smash Bros series is the reason why they started this group.
Without hesitation, each member jumped onto his bed carrying either a Gamepad or a Wii Remote and Nunchuck. Luke unwrapped the case, took out the disc and carefully slid it into the system.
The console flashed and the TV screen turned white and displayed the Wii U logo. The game launched and the intro began.
"Oh the nostalgia." Natalie said smiling at the flashing screen. After watching the intro (8 times) they went to start their first game. Each member chose their best and favourite character from the last game, Brawl.
Adam: Lucario
Luke: Falco
Gemma: Sheik
Natalie: Samus
"Of course you choose the Mewtwo clone." Luke complained rolling his eyes glaring at Adam.
"Oh shut up!" Adam Retaliated "Because your character is most definitely not a clone of Fox."
"Stop fighting so we can play!" Natalie and Gemma shouted in unison.
The conflicting boys obeyed and continued to the stage selection. Luke selected battlefield and the game began to load and everybody waited anxiously for the battle to start. But suddenly the most irritating possible that could happen at this time, happened.
The power shut off and the entire room went dark which caused a lot of angry swears and curses from the group.
"SERIOUSLY!" They all screamed in unison!
"Hang on let me go check the fuse box." Gemma sighed as she tried opening the door. However, the door did not open. "Why is the door locked?"
"LOCKED?! Let me see!" Luke panicked scrambling towards the door. It did not budge. "Why is it locked?!"
"Is anyone else noticing that it is a bit windy in here?" Adam asked waving his hand. The others slowly began noticing the slight breeze in the room.
"How is that possible, there are no windows in here?" Natalie asked confused.
Adam inspected the TV and noticed where the breeze was coming from. "The wind is coming from the TV."
Luke quickly ran beside him and carefully placed his hand on the screen. "It isn't coming from the TV." Luke said removing his hand from the screen, having to use some effort. "It's going through the TV." He finished.
Suddenly, the screen began displaying static and started cracking where his hand was placed. Everybody jumped after seeing this and slowly began to step back from the somewhat demonic television screen. The Wii U began flashing randomly as the crack on the screen started to spread. The wind grew stronger. The screen was now a creepy spider web as the crack was now fully spread across the screen. Then things went from bad to worse within a split-second.
The screen shattered completely and the wind soon turned into a powerful vacuum suction. All of the members were pulled from their feet and launched towards the screen. Luke and Adam quickly grabbed the two bedpost and Gemma grabbed a chair. Natalie however, was unable to grab anything and she flew into the TV screaming. Then she was gone.
"NATALIE!" Gemma screamed as Natalie's body disappeared into the screen. Then the chair slowly began to slide closer and closer to the screen. "HELP MEEEE!"
Adam turned to see his girlfriend being pulled to the screen. He reached for each other's hand and they almost touched but then Gemma was sucked into the screen and vanished completely.
"NOOOOO!" Adam cried seeing his girlfriend disappear into the screen. He and Luke were still hanging onto the bedpost when suddenly the room became dark again and tiny little specs of darkness poured from the TV.
The shadow bugs then began to collide together and five creatures were formed. Four were teal, one was blue and they all carried weapons. Just then, Luke's fingers slipped after seeing this and he was sucked into the vortex screaming.
The creatures heard the screaming and saw me still hanging on to the bed. The blue one walked up to me and unsheathed a glowing sword. He began to laugh as he was just about to slice off his fingers. Before he could finish, Adam quickly released his hands from the bed causing him to fly into the vortex without his fingers being sliced. He watched the monster deviously wave him goodbye as he flew into a portal that he thought never existed
Battlefield
Adam landed on a very familiar battleground. He opened his eyes slightly to see that he was surrounded by his friends who were all unconscious. The weak boy began to see things get darker as a shadow grew over top of him.
He looked up to see four blurry, but familiar figures stand over top of him. Then a black paw with a spike on it reached out to help him. Adam began reaching out to grab it but he was too weak and it dropped to the ground and the boy blacked out seeing nothing but darkness.
?
Adam was the first to wake up. He lay there for a moment trying to believe that what he experienced was nothing more than a bad dream. He almost succeeded, until he realised that the bed he was on was not his and the room he was in was something he had never seen before. The dark-haired boy did not remember coming to this bed and how he got in this room in the first place. His mind was still plagued by the memories he had only recently just experienced.
The game, the vortex, the monster, the battlefield, the paw. Adam knew it was all real and that no matter times he tried denying it, it will remain the same. He attempted getting out of his bed, which was surprisingly easier than he expected. The boy glanced at the bedside table and saw an almost empty bowl with a red liquid and half of a tomato with a big M stamped on it. He tried to come with a conclusion of what it meant but had no luck as he was very tired.
Adam observed the room and noticed that his friends were still asleep in three other beds in the room. He woke each of them up and they were all as confused as he is.
"Where are we?" Gemma asked still half asleep. "How did we get here?"
"Last I remember was being sucked into a vortex and then blacking out." Luke responded.
"Should we explore?" Natalie asked.
"I don't know if that is a good idea." Adam said. "What if we're caug-"
"I think we should." Luke said interrupting Adam. "It's better than waiting here for god knows what."
"(Lost and confused and still Luke must always try to upstage me)." Adam thought to himself rolling his eyes.
"Come on, let's go". Luke whispered walking towards the door. The rest of the group follow behind as he slowly opens the door and peered through the opening.
Everyone else looks through the gap to see a hallway with many other doors. They slowly tip-toe are way through the hallway past the other rooms and soon reach to what looks like a kitchen. The group proceed through the kitchen until we begin to notice that our shadow is growing in front of us.
Then they stop and slowly turn around to see a giant floating hand right stopped right behind us.
"Hi." It says waving its… hand at the group.
The group remains speechless and suddenly they all faint and fall back to the ground
Moments later…
The group reawaken inside a room with multiple television screens and a map table in the centre. Then they see the hand again.
"Hello" The hand says again. This time the group doesn't faint but are instead much panicked.
"Who and what are you?" Luke asks staring at the hand
"I am Master Hand and I am a… well, a hand." The white glove replies.
"Wait… you're Master Hand?" Adam replied confused. "But I thought he was a video game character."
"In your world, Yes. But in our worlds I and many others are all very existent." Master Hand explained. "Now, how did you get here exactly?"
"We don't know."
"Don't know?"
The group explains everything that has happened since they opened the case.
"Strange." The hand replies. "It was before you guys came when we noticed a slight Subspace detection in the same area where you were found."
"Subspace…" Gemma thinks out loud. "Isn't that from the previous game or I mean world?"
"Yes, but we haven't experienced anything strange since then until now." Master Hand says in a bit of worry. "This is bad, especially on the day of our new tournament."
"Sorry to interrupt your session, but where are we?" Natalie asked observing the room.
"Oh, where are my manners?" The Hand asks chuckling abandoning his worry. "You are currently in the Smash Mansion, home of the many fighters competing in the Smash Tournament."
The group's panic soon turns into amazement as they take a moment to allow everything that has happened to process in their minds.
"Where are the fighters?" Adam asks breaking the silence.
"Sleeping. I assume you saw all of their rooms on your journey to the kitchen." Master Hand says happily but soon turns into disappointment. "I am very sorry, but you cannot stay here for longer."
"WHAT!?" Luke Exclaims. "BUT WHY?! WE JUST GOT HERE?!"
"I am sorry but I have to continue operating the tournament and I cannot risk any more fighters seeing you here." Master Hand explained.
Suddenly the entire house begins to rumble as if an earthquake has erupted. Then the room begins to darken and the same specs of darkness begin covering the walls.
"OH NO!" Master Hand cries racing towards a red button underneath a plastic flap. He opens it and slams his finger on it causing an alarm to go off. He then runs to a screen displaying each of the fighters and stares at it in shock as each of the character's turn off. "They're gone!"
"WHO'S GONE?" Gemma cried in terror. "WHAT'S HAPPENING?!"
"The smashers, they disappeared back into the World of Trophies." He says stunned pointing to the map table. It was the same map seen in the Subspace Emissary.
Suddenly another hand appears from the hallway screaming
"AAAAAH! WHAT IS HAPPENING?!" It screams. "It's the Apocalypse! APOCALYPSE!"
"It's Tabuu and the subspace army Crazy Hand!" Master Hand shouted at the other hand
"AAH! IT IS THE APOCALYPSE! WHAT DO WE DO!?"
Master Hand thought for a moment before looking at the group who looked terrified and very confused.
"Do you really want to stay?" He asked looking at the group.
The group took a minute to think this through until they nodded at the hand.
"Good, then follow my instructions." He said giving them each a small device. "This will take you into the world of trophies, but not back. The device is random and will teleport you anywhere on that map, meaning it is unlikely you will spawn together. Once you get there it is up to you to bring the fighters together so they can fight Tabuu and defeat him once again. The fighters will not remember anything of the tournament or each other. You must persuade them to join by any means necessary. Do I make myself clear?"
"All Clear!" They said in unison.
"Good, take a moment to say goodbye as you guys will temporarily be disconnected."
They each hugged (except for Adam and Luke) each other and Adam and Gemma quickly kissed. This was followed by a scoff from Luke and a coo from Crazy.
The walls finally began to crumble and monsters began to form from the shadow bugs.
"You guys must go now!" Master Hand Urged. "OH, and do not let any of them know that they are from video games! It is very important that you keep this a secret from them! NOW GO!"
The group each pressed a button on their device and like that they disappeared.
The monsters begin charging at the two hands.
"You ready to kick some ass, brother?!" Crazy asked
"Let's defend our house as best as we can Crazy!" Master said charging at a herd of them.
They defended the house from all of the monsters leaving a wreckage of debris behind them but then they saw something that caused their confidence to drop.
A Subspace Bomb set to go off in under 10 seconds.
