Hey guys. It's me and I'm going to work on something else for a while because I have major writers block for my other story. So I will try to work on it soon but as for now I'm going to work on this new idea of mine.

I have made rivals between the Super Smash Bros. Brawl and PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale characters. But since there were more Smash characters not all of them will get a rival. I will try to work hard on both stories but I can't make any guarantees since I'm starting the last quarter of school.

There will be 24 chapters for each rival set with their intro, rival, and outro cutscenes. Just a FYI, for the All-Stars characters will have their original intros and outros but don't blame me if you feel something is wrong. I'm trying my best. Anyways the first pairing you'll see here is Mario and Nathan Drake (I only paired these two together because I ran out of PSASBR characters and I wanted Mario to have a rival. That's all.)

Disclaimer: I do NOT own SSBB or PSASBR! Enjoy!

Mario vs. Nathan Drake

Mario: (Intro)

"Isn't it beautiful Mario? My garden is now in full bloom." Mario and Peach were walking down her castle gardens when all of a sudden…BAM!

"Mama Mia!" Wario jumped out in front of them and gave them a good startle.

"WAHAHAHA! I have come to defeat you this-a time Mario and I took out-a all the guards too," he laughed.

"No surprise to see he had gotten-a past them. The toads aren't that much-a help and my brother doesn't-a make it any-a better either," Mario whispered to himself.

"Get-a inside Princess and I will-a deal with-a Wario," he yelled at her and she didn't even think about it. Soon she was inside and safe and Mario got ready to face off against him. Unfortunately Wario had beaten him pretty badly and left him with an awful taste in his mouth.

Soon he came around and the princess then told him something important. "When Wario had knocked you out, he started to ramble about a power source that he found in a strange place and needed to get more and worse is someone stole the documents of uncharted locations that lead to some sort of power. It might have been very possible that Wario did this."

When Mario heard that he knew he had to find much stronger power so he could whoop his disgusting butt all the way back home to his mama. "I have to-a become stronger so I can defeat Wario. Oh and so I can also protect you too," Mario explained with confidence in voice.

At first the princess wasn't alright with the idea of him putting himself into unknown territory with hostile enemies lurking around but eventually she agreed. And with that he was off with the princess alone in her castle where all the toad guards are injured and with Luigi being her only source of protection… "I better get-a that power I need-a fast before Bowser decides to "drop by for a visit," " he thought to himself.

Mario: (Rival)

"Huh, this is so-a weird. I've never been in a place like-a this before. Now that I think of it how did I get-a here in the first-a place? But I bet Peach would-a love this place," Mario said to himself, admiring the crystallized area with a little confusion on how he ended up here. But soon someone jumped next to him and as result startled Mario as he jumped backwards, away from this tall, mysterious person. Mario stared at the newcomer with suspicion that he would have to fight him just like he did with everyone else so far. Eventually the man spoke to him.

"What are you doing here, little man?" Nathan Drake asked as he started to pace a big circle around Mario.

"I could-a ask you the same thing." Mario responded, standing in his place and not taking his eyes off the man. He then saw some papers in the guy's hand. It looked like the ones that were taken from Peach's castle. "Hey that's-a mine. Give it-a back now."

"Hey first off, these papers are mine now, and secondly, at least have the decency of speaking in a normal voice and not that horrible Italian accent you're using." Mario whipped around in anger of the comment this random stranger just said.

"Hey I can't-a help it if I speak like-a this and at least I have a princess who loves-a me. So take that." Mario retaliated back at Nathan hoping to get a good reaction from mentioning Peach.

But he didn't seem surprised when he started chuckling. "You are with a princess? Not likely since princesses don't fall for plumber-garbed midgets who reek of sewage and have ridiculous sized moustaches and a dorky hat like yours." He messed with Mario's moustache and hat when he mocked them.

Mario had reached his peak as he exploded in rage. "THAT'S-A IT! You can make-a fun of my height, my-a moustache, and the fact that-a I'm dating a princess, but no one…and I mean…NO…ONE…makes fun of-a my hat! You are going to-a pay for that!" Mario screamed as he and Nathan got into fighting stances.

Mario: (Outro)

Mario was walking into Peach's castle when suddenly…

"MARIO!" Mario looked up the staircase to see the princess running down with what was obviously relief in her voice. She hugged him tightly as she said, "Oh Mario, I was so worried about you. I thought you would not be able to return because you were hurt or injured or even…"

He interrupted when he realized what she was about to say next. "Peach please, don't-a even think about that. As you can-a tell I'm not hurt in the slightest. You-a worry too much."

"I know but you were just so willing to put yourself at risk for some dumb power just to get revenge on Wario," she sighed as she released him from her bear hug.

"You know-a me better than-a that. Besides I can-a now protect you even-a better than before after all the battles I had-a to win and people I had-a to beat just to get-a there." He said comforting Peach's nervousness. Then Luigi ran in looking around the room frantically for someone. When he saw Mario he ran to his older brother and placed his hands on his knees gasping for air.

"Mario, thank-a goodness you are-a back. Wario has also returned and he's got Bowser with-a him this time," He panted pointing at the entrance.

"So they both-a want something from here, don't they? Well let's just-a see how they like the now-a new and improved Mario." With that he started to glow blue from his newfound strength with Luigi gawking and Peach staring in amazement at Mario. Now Mario stood behind the door ready to take the both of them on.

Nathan Drake: (Intro)

Nathan was sitting at a table by the beach with his good friend, Sully, leaning over the paper he had been observing on the tabletop for quite some time now. "So, what is that, anyways?" his friend asked with little curiosity.

Nathan replied to him saying "Well I can't make out the writing. But there's something about the drawings…" He paused when some of the map's drawings caught his attention. "You know I think I recognize some of these locations. And these… these are coordinates. Someone was plotting a route to something but…"

"…but, how about a break, for a change?" Sully said to interrupt his trail of thoughts so Nathan would stop worrying about the old parchment. "You know there's nothing wrong with enjoying a little quiet time."

But Nathan was too determined to resolve his adventurous spirit. "Come on Sully, you don't go through the trouble of making a map like this unless you're after something pretty valuable." Then he paused realizing something. "Or hiding it."

Realizing he wasn't going to change his mind he decided to just go along with Nathan…again. "Sounds like something we need to get a look at."

"Better us than someone else, right?"

"Yeah well…speaking of someone else, whoever wrote those pages is gonna want them back." Sully brought up a good point but once again Nathan felt too overconfident and was starting to walk away.

"People want all kinds of things. It's getting them that's the trick. Fire up the plane, we're heading out." And with that they were on their way on another one of Nathan's insane adventures.

Nathan Drake: (Rival)

Nathan was looking at the map he had when his peripheral vision noticed something unusual about his surrounding environment. He followed the map exactly as printed and he found himself in some sort of realm of crystals with some unknown energy that reacted to his feet by lighting up everytime he took a step. "Well, what did I get myself into this time? I did follow the directions on these things correctly, right? So why did it take me here?"

Soon he saw a short man in overalls jump right in front of him as he spoke in an annoying Italian accent. "I don't-a know but why don't you give-a back those documents you stole from Princess-a Peach." He sounded mad but Nathan had no idea who this guy was nor did he know any princesses. Although this Princess Peach that he mentioned did sound very nice.

"I have no clue about what you're saying since I've never met any Princess Peach even if she sounds like a cute celebrity." Nathan didn't realize what he just said and Mario snapped as he shot a fireball at him. Nathan quickly jumped and somersaulted away from the little flame that eventually bounced out of existence. "What did I do now?"

"No one-a dares speak of-a MY Peach in such a way. Now I will ask-a you this one time and only once…Will you-a give back the papers you-a stole and apologize about-a the princess or will I have to drag you-a by the ear back to her castle to-a get you beheaded?"

Nathan did not appreciate the attitude this plumber was giving him. "How about this errand boy, I will hold on to these and you can go cry in your sewage pipe right after I beat the stuffing out of your plumped and stout body." And with that Mario and Nathan took their positions as the battle was about to begin.

Nathan Drake: (Outro)

When Nathan got back to the dock their biplane was parked by, he saw a face he felt like he hadn't seen in years. "Sully! Man, are you a sight for sore eyes."

"Yeah, yeah I missed you too," Sully replied but he didn't sound too excited. In fact it sounded as if he were humoring him as if he told Sully a joke.

As he started to board the plane, he turned to Sully and said, "I'm not kidding. You wouldn't believe some of the things I saw out there. And most of them had it in for me."

When they both boarded inside Sully sounded as if that just was fine. "Hey, you don't look any of the worse for wear. Couldn't have been that bad."

With a small scoff, he countered it. "No seriously. These were some real freaks."

"What it is with you and these stories, Nate. Did you get the treasure, or what?" Sully asked as they began to take to the sky.

"Come on, you outta have more faith in me, Sully. Alright, I'll show you what I found, if you think you can handle it."

All of a sudden the biplane was radiating a blue light around the entire flying machine's body. "Whoa hoah. Hey, I don't know what you've been up to out there but this old crate hasn't flown this well in years. Keep it coming, kid, let's see where it takes us." And with that the plane took off to another destination.

Then Nathan randomly decides to say something weird. "I punched a chicken."

Well that's it for now. Please let me know what you think of this pairing and the Nathan's new rival scene. R&R and check out my other stories in the works. Be prepared because the next pairing up next is Sonic and PaRappa the Rapper. I hope you liked it and stick around. See ya soon.
