This is my second fanfic. My first one stunk so bad I took it off in less then 48 hours. Let's hope this does better.

Guns and Swords

I

Worst of times

In a time slightly before the Melee Smashers arrived, the SSB lived in a shack. Not a nice shack either. To some, an outhouse might be more desirable. As you can imagine living, eating and sleeping less then five feet from any of the smashers is not fun.

"I am going to kill that yellow mouse!" Link shouted as he went tearing through the house at full speed after Pikachu. His hair was standing on end and it didn't take a genius to figure out what had happened.

Luckily for Pikachu, the Master Hand stopped Link from cutting Pikachu, or the shack, to shreds.

"Why can't any of you get along?" he shouted despairingly. "It's hard enough to sleep without you running around and screaming!"

"Hey it's not my fault!" Link shouted back. "He's the one who shocked me in the first place."

"Pika pi" Pikachu squeaked.

Bam!

"Will you shut up? I'm trying to sleep here!" Samus' voice drifted from a smoking hole in the wall.

"Why does she get a room to herself?" an ash-incrusted Link asked coldly.

"We've been through this before! She's the only girl and deserves a room to herself!" the Master Hand was beginning to shout again.

"You're just afraid because you know she can beat you!"

"Pika!" sparks were beginning to fly.

"Why you little..."

Bamm!!!!!!!!!!!

"I said shut up!"

"You shut up!"

"Pika fire!"

Ness's shot got everything going. Smashers were joining the fight until only Kirby was left sleeping. When he finally did awake and see the carnage, his primal instincts kicked in and he began to suck... and suck... and suck... until every last smasher was in a now giant pink ball.

"Stupid, pink tapioca-like puff ball!" Fox's muffled voice came from inside Kirby.

Little did they know, they were being watched.

"Foolish smashers!" said a deep voice. "Their lack of unity will be their downfall! But for now I must gather the other people. And soon all hope for gamer will be gone! Mwuhaha! Ha ha ha! Ha HAAAAAAAAA!"

A crazed laughter. An evil laughter. But mostly crazed. This villain would test the strength of the smashers... and video gamers everywhere!

Darkwarrior17: There. I'm too tired to write more. Please review and I will have chapter two up as soon as possible.
