Thank you for trying out my story! For those of you who somehow read my Pokemon story, somehow enjoyed it, somehow stumbled across this story, and still want a new chapter for that story, all I can tell you is that I hit a roadblock in that story. Sorry! But on the brighter note, here's some Smash!

Master Hand looked out over the world below from way up overhead on Final Destination. All he saw were empty plains, abandoned buildings, and dead forests. Master Hand turned from the depressing sight, only to see the exact same thing on the other side of the large platform he hovered above.
Rage coursed through him, but it quickly turned to sorrow. He had created this world, but that was all. It was empty, lifeless, and completely dull.
"Why?" Master Hand whispered to himself. "Why did I create an empty existence? Why, when I was gifted with this power, did I create nothing but emptiness?"
As Master Hand ran through these thoughts, an idea popped into his nonexistent head. If he couldn't create something purely original, why not just use the endless number of worlds around him to his advantage?
Master Hand used his immense power to summon several rifts in space. Through each of them, in order in their creation, one could see a castle with small mushroom-like people running around, a jungle filled with many animals, another castle which had pointed-eared inhabitants rather than mushroom people, a desolate planet overflowing with lava, an island in the middle of nowhere, a strange star-shaped planet, an impressive spaceship, an urban settle with many strange creatures, a racetrack with hovercrafts, and a small town.
Master Hand quickly swooped through each of the portals, scanning not only some of the locations he found, put also some of the interesting specimens he encountered. These including but were not limited to two pink balloon things, a green dinosaur, and an immense ape.
Master Hand then used his powers to recreate the areas he had scanned. He noticed, with irritation, that the areas where very limited, and only covered a small amount of the barren world. On top of that, the stages, as Master Hand had just now dubbed them, were not exact copies of the locations he had seen.
This did, however, ignite Master Hand's curiosity. "What would happen if I tried to recreate the organisms I scanned?" he thought out loud.
Deciding to try his luck, Master Hand recreated each of the twelve creatures he had scanned during his flight through the other worlds. They looked exactly as they had in the other world, with the exception of a golden base that was attached to each of their feet. Confused as to why this had happened, Master Hand floated towards them, and was shocked to see they were, in fact, statues.
Once again irritated by a failure, Master Hand picked up one of the statues, and in doing so, touched its base. The statue began to glow a bright gold, and when Master Hand looked back, a plumber in red clothes and blue overalls stood up and shook his head. The statue, which had looked just like the plumber, had disappeared.
Interested once again, Master Hand quickly tapped the bases of each of the statues. As they all gaining consciousness, Master Hand was once again struck by an idea.
He floated up to the twelve characters and yelled loudly "Welcome!" As he expected, all of them immediately looked up towards him.
"I will be the first to greet you to the first Super Smash Bros. Tournament! You are twelve powerful warriors, and you have been selected to fight each other! Should you fall, you will change into a trophy, and be sent back to you world!" Master Hand yelled. Of course, the last part was a lie. Once they changed back, he would simply destroy their trophy until he wanted more entertainment.
This day started a cycle. Every time Master Hand grew bored, he would recreate these twelve trophies and have them fight. Eventually, he scanned more organisms and locations to make more fighters and stages. He noticed that they eventually began to develop personalities, rather than just being blank slates. Master Hand would let the trophies have more and more freedom, letting them live normal lives until the next battle.
This went on, until one fateful day. One of the trophies, which was modeled after someone named "Snake", fought Master Hand. "Snake" believed defeating Master Hand would give him Master Hand's power, but he was wrong. He did manage to defeat Master Hand. However, he was not granted god-like powers. Instead, he as well as a few trophies close to the explosion that resulted due to Master Hand's death were destroyed. The stages Master Hand created simply ceased to exist, and the remaining trophies slowly died due to the lack of power given off by Master Hand. The world was once again empty.
This is how the world of Brawl was destroyed. However, remnants of that world survived, and reformed. Some trophies were reborn as their usual selves, but something changed. The trophies began to develop personalities again, but unlike in Brawl, their personalities didn't always match the character whose face they shared.
The rest of this story carries on in this new world. The trophies may have developed separated from their original forms, but many of the relationships between the actual people in the other world and their trophy counterparts still formed. Pit became the servant of Palutena and the light twin to Dark Pit, and Mario and Bowser still hate each other, but other relations changed. Zero Suit Samus and Samus became two different people, as did Zelda and Sheik.
But what happens then? Many different scenarios could play out. In one, the trophies find peace and conflict is ended. In another, the trophies just keep to themselves. But we will follow the most interesting one, where no one knows what might happen.
Alright, thanks for reading through all that mess! I am kinda disappointed with out this chapter turned out, but the rest of the story should make much more sense. Thank you for reading, and all I can say is that the second chapter will most definitely be more organized and put together, since that is when we get to the first part of the plot.
