We are your life

Prologue

There was once an entire universe with nothing in it. No being roamed it for many years, until one day where two mysterious god-like beings formed. Both took the shape of giant human hands covered by white gloves, and nothing else. Although their appearances were alike, they had very different personalities. One wanted direct results in life, specifically, and was very serious. The other wanted to see action 24/7. He craved it.

The serious hand became known as Master Hand. The other hand became known as Crazy Hand.

Together they figured out that they could both get what they wanted, if with their powers, they could create their fulfillment.

He suddenly woke up in what seemed to be some sort of...abyss. He was falling endlessly, or was he floating? Wait, who exactly was he?

Suddenly both Master Hand and Crazy Hand appeared towards Him.

"Welcome," greeted Master Hand. "I am Master Hand, and this is Crazy Hand. We strive for two different things. However we worked together to create you, and what you will be doing forever, so we can both get what we want.

You are the first one we created."

Crazy Hand then jerking his fingers around and said something unintelligible.

"You will be known as Mario," Master Hand proclaimed. "You will fight against other fighters we create in coliseums we also create. You will never die, but when you are not fighting, you will get to live in luxury. It's a win-win."

"Others are coming soon, Mario," He assured. "Now, off to the mansion with you."

And with that, he was gone.

Mario appeared in what seemed to be a bedroom. Is this the mansion the mysterious Master Hand was talking about? He observed the bedroom. There was nothing in it other than a bed, and a door to a personal balcony. He checked that out, and found that the Mansion was floating in a cloudy place, almost like heaven. A better trade off than the abyss he was just in. He also saw many other bedrooms. How many people were going to be here? His head began to hurt.

Mario left his bedroom, and found the hall he was in seemed almost endless. Was anyone else here yet? He turned left and walked right into someone. This person quickly reacted and jumped back pointing his sword at Mario, who jumped back to the corner away from the sword tip.

"WHO ARE YOU? WHERE ARE WE?" The man shouted. He was frightened.

"P-Please! Put your s-sword down!" Mario shouted. "I'm not sure either! I'm scared too!"

The other man slowly put his sword away. The man wore a blue tunic, and had strange, pointy ears. His eyes were as blue as his tunic and his hair was a dark blonde. Mario could tell this man was made to look important to something.

"I'm M-Mario," He said, holding out his hand sheepishly. "What's y-yours?"

The man slowly shook Mario's hand. "They said my name was Link," He said.

"Who? Master Hand?" Asked Mario

"Yes...do you know who he is?"

"Not really. As far as I know he created me...might have created you."

Link backed away.

"I was created only minutes ago...but I shouldn't even know what creation is. How do we have this knowledge?" He asked.

Mario pondered on it for a minute. It made his head hurt. Again.

"Look Link, maybe we shouldn't think about that just yet. There's still a lot we don't know. Like this mansion we're in. What else is in it? Maybe we should explore. Get to know each other a little better. Somehow," Suggested Mario.

Link agreed, and they tried to find a way out of the maze of bedrooms. Or something else.

A/N: Thank you for reading the prologue! Now, I know that smash mansions are a overused trope, but I'm trying to put a little bit more of a mystery surrounding it. Plus, it's not just in the mansion. Fighting can be substantial.

Also, all characters are based on their default appearance in Smash Bros Ultimate. At the time of writing this said game is not currently out but it is currently the most up to date versions of the characters.

I hope you like where this story will be going! (also author's notes will be used very sparingly. Promise.)
