Hello, this is just a little something I've been working on. I was kind of disappointed with the lack of a proper story mode in the new Super Smash Bros., so I thought I'd write my own story. I'm going to include every world with a connected mini-story arc for every playable IP in the series. I'm also going to include a handful of worlds not in Smash that at least a few people think should be in Smash. If you have a world to suggest to visit, feel free to let me know. I hope to release at least two or three chapters a day, though understand that may not happen. Any feedback is welcome.

Prologue:

Ahem, welcome young ones! I've been told you've come for a grand tale the likes of which you'll never hear again. Who am I you ask? I go by many names, but you may call me simply the Narrator. My true name is irrelevant as this is not mine, but rather a story involving some you may know very well. We've been told all of our lives that the worlds of fiction are just that: fiction. I'm here to tell you that's a lie. These worlds are just as real as you and me. You can't reach them if you traveled a billion light years, though. Reaching them requires magic or ingenious science besides. Of course, our tale doesn't involve all fiction, just the video game worlds. The heroes and villains of those universes never interact with one another, at least not anymore. Who knows, they may have stories of us and believe we're fiction. I really can't say. Anyway, you might ask why I'm bringing this all up. Well, I said they don't interact anymore. They did so not so long ago. The battle was long, arduous, and every world hang in the balance, even our own though we did not know it. How do I know this? Heh, heh… let's just say I have my sources. Now do you want to hear this story or not? … Very well, it all began on a bright sunny day in Mute City…

Chapter 1: Before the Race

You see, Mute City happens within the F-Zero universe. It's actually not so different from our own. Taking place only about 400 years from now, the world is extremely futuristic. Sometime in the future, (do not ask me for I do not know), New York City is renamed to Mute City and the place becomes a center of bustling trade for the entire galaxy. By far the biggest past time of this world are the F-Zero races. They involve these large, powerful machines that float along the ground and can travel at close to 2000 kilometers per hour. Only the best can race these cars without crashing. Anyone lucky enough to become an F-Zero racer becomes more popular than a president, pop star, and your own grandma combined. But all is not perfect in this universe. It was foretold shortly after our present day that, one day, an evil one would erase the current universe and would create a new one in its place with the power of strange otherworldly machines called Reactor Mights. The only one who could stop him was one who would become the best F-Zero racer and take on the title of Captain Falcon.

But who truly is Captain Falcon? My sources tell me it was one Andy Summer. Andy Summer was one the brave, courageous young police officer that faced off against the forces of Zoda's street gangs in the heart of Mute City. He worked hard every day and lived for his work, which, luckily for him, was alongside his sister, Jody Summer, who also a brilliant cop in her own right. That all changed when Zoda allied himself with the Evil One, Black Shadow. No one knows where Black Shadow came from, but he's the one Captain Falcon is destined to defeat. Two years before the day in question, Zoda pretended to surrender to law enforcement just after he came into Black Shadow's service. It was a trap. A massive bomb was planted and the two sent to arrest him, Jody and Andy Summer, fell into the trap.

Jody suffered major bodily harm. With the help of a lifelong friend, Dr. Stewart, she was able to replace the damaged body parts with robotic parts. In time, she became the respected leader of a crime force dedicated to winning F-Zero races to keep the prize money out of the hands of Black Shadow. Andy Summer… was declared dead. The police never found his body, and it was presumed to have gone up in smoke as Andy Summer spent his last brave moments using his body to shield his sister from the explosion. Of course, we know the truth. Taking on the facade of Bart Lemming, he created a coffee shop which acted as a front for his F-Zero activities. He became Captain Falcon. Two years have since passed where our story begins.

Captain Falcon is a man able to make tough calls, but he's about to make one that he's not sure he is able to. This morning, something felt wrong, and nothing he could do seemed to fix that. He had the distinct feeling that something big is about to happen and he's going to play a huge role in it. That could not possibly be right; his destiny wasn't here yet, was it? All the same, he knew something was coming. He did not know if he would survive the day, so he needed to get something off his chest before his death. Jody Summer needed to know Andy Summer yet lived. This was a dangerous decision: no one knew he was still alive and his anonymity was just as much for his protection as hers. He ought to tell her, but would she even want to see him after keeping this secret? A million thoughts ran through Captain Falcon's head, but he would only have one chance to speak with her before the F-Zero race. He headed down to her bunker almost turning back several times. Finally, he reached where she would be working on her machine and spoke up.

"Jody," he spoke simply, "There is something you must know."

"If it isn't Captain Falcon. Are you here to wish me luck or tell me not to compete like you did at the Red Ocean race a few months back?" Jody replied with her head in the hood.

"You nearly broke your neck. Black Shadow knows you too well."

"Maybe so, but it's my job Captain Falcon. Not all of us can be prophesied vigilantes like you."

"That's beside the point Jody. It's about your brother."

"My brother?" Jody exclaims as she pulls out of the hood to look at Captain Falcon, "What can you possibly mean?"

"He's alive, Jody."

"How can you know? Have you seen him?"

"You have yourself, Jody; you just never knew it,", Captain Falcon says as he takes off his helmet.

"A-Andy?"

"Jody, I hope you can forgive me. I realized I would have to be the one to defeat Black Shadow, and I didn't want you to get hurt. I faked my death to protect you. If Black Shadow had found out about your connection to me… I would have never forgiven myself."

"Then why are you telling me now, Andy? Black Shadow is still at large."

"Because, Jody, I have a bad feeling about today. Something will happen that will change everything forever. I do not know what it is, but I could not go forward without letting you know I still live. I know I can't stop you from racing today, but please, be careful Jody."

"You too, Andy Summer, prophesied hero."

Captain Falcon placed his helmet back on his head and left the garage quietly. He only had a few minutes to the beginning of the race and he'd need to do some minor preparations in his Blue Falcon. After arriving in his own garage, he quickly set about pre-race maintenance and thought only the never ending dread sitting in his stomach. His only bright spot was that his sister would know his secret no matter what happened. The announcer came onto the intercom, telling racers to pull onto the track.

Chapter 2: The Adventure Begins

"Ladies and gentlemen! We have an excellent race for you today in the F-Zero Mute City Grand Prix! Jody Summer and her entire crew is out today, so watch out! Samurai Goroh and his lovely wife, Lisa Brilliant, are raring to go, winning it for their space pirate enterprises! Captain Falcon, the fan favorite, is here, ready to stop some of our other competitors, which brings me to- WHAT?! Folks, I'm being told the crime lord Black Shadow has become a late entry!"

Captain Falcon looked to indeed see Black Shadow in his Black Bull. This wasn't uncommon. One of the rules of the F-Zero races was that you guaranteed immunity from arrest and legal responsibilities while racing. Black Shadow could be seen here without having a government hit team taking him down. That's why Jody Summer's team was so important: it keeps the money from victory out of Black Shadow's hands. Captain Falcon turned back around and prepared for the race. If Black Shadow was here, this would not be such an easy race.

"And… they're off!" the announcer cried, but no one heard him for the crowd was screaming so loudly that even the futuristic speakers couldn't get above that sound level. If you've never seen an F-Zero race, it's hard to accurately explain. Imagine you are driving a car on a really fast highway. There are no lanes and twenty-nine other drivers are making moves you simply can't predict. The difference between that and F-Zero is instead of maybe 80 miles per hour, they go Mach 2 and instead of grass and guardrails on either side of the highway, there are rarely guardrails and nothing but the city below. People rarely die in such races due to the safety gear in the cars, but let's just say you aren't going to be the kind of person that crashes twice.

The first two laps were about as uneventful as an F-Zero race can be, and as our tale rather needs to get a move on from this exposition dump, I'll just skip them. Captain Falcon and Black Shadow were on the final lap, neck and neck.

"Black Shadow, give it up! The race, and the universe, will never be yours!" Captain Falcon roared.

Black Shadow laughed, showed a fanged smile, and responded, "I wouldn't be sure, Captain Falcon, or should I say Andy Summer? Yes, I know all about your little superhero antics and your precious sister. Suffice to say, the game is up. I already have something planned that I just know you'll love Summer. I-"

But Black Shadow never finished that thought because it was in that moment that the world came to an end. A dark void appeared in the sky and started sucking up the whole world.

"Black Shadow! What is the meaning of this? What unholy power have you unleashed?" Captain Falcon yelled, but Black Shadow looked just as startled as Captain Falcon was; this wasn't Black Shadow's doing. Jody Summer's vehicle, the White Cat, began to be engulfed by the the void. Captain Falcon watched as his sister's face went from determination to get away to utter horror that she couldn't get away. Captain Falcon bravely drove off the track onto a nearby skyscraper, and raced across the city to get to his sister. But it was too late: Captain Falcon witnessed the last moments of Jody Summer, powerless to stop the one thing he had dedicated his life to: protecting his sister. For the first time in many years, Captain Falcon broke down; he cried so endlessly he never noticed his fall into the void. All went dark.

Chapter 3: Darkness Falls

Captain Falcon came to in a plush bed, and he thought he was back home, that the race was a dream. He opened his eyes to see it wasn't his home, and it was all real. Captain Falcon once more began to tear up before a woman appearing older than time itself walked into the room.

"Welcome, Captain Falcon, chosen hero of the world of racing machines and, if my suspicions are correct, one of the Twelve Reborn. We have much to discuss. You may call me the Overseer of Worlds. My true name was lost long ago."

"What's the point, Overseer of Worlds? My sister, she's gone." Captain Falcon wailed.

"Dry your tears and hear my tale before you despair." Overseer of Worlds calmly replied.

This is what Captain Falcon was told, more or less. Bits of knowledge were added later, but I just added a complete collection of the story. In an era in which Darkness ruled all, there was nothing except an endless void of chaos. No one was alive for this so all we have is legends. One day, or whatever passed for days in this land, 13 Lights appeared. They thrust back the Darkness and gave birth to creation. Worlds came into being and these worlds were connected. It was a golden age with inhabitants of all worlds collaborating for a brighter future. The thirteen Lights became known as the Thirteen Sages. They ruled justly and kindly, keeping the peace between the worlds. But one day, one of the Thirteen Sages was tainted by Darkness. He saw the worlds as corrupt and thought that, they, the Sages, should rule over all of creation. When the other twelve denied him, he set out to create an army of the darkest individuals of each of the worlds. In an epic battle that was known as the First Battle, the sage was defeated, and sealed away. To keep people from honoring the fallen Sage's name, his name was made taboo and, by magic, the sage goes by no name other than Tabuu. The house that Captain Falcon now sat in was in The World Between the Worlds at the spot of Tabuu's defeat ages ago. The Twelve Sages knew that Tabuu would return and in their growing age, they wouldn't be able to stop him again. And so, they agreed to be reborn in new vessels scattered across the worlds when the time came for Tabuu's return. The Twelve Reborn was the name given to these chosen heroes. They also gave the Overseer of Worlds immortality to keep watch over the worlds while they were gone. The worlds were disconnected and people forgot about those in other worlds. Eons have passed and now Tabuu has returned. He targeted Captain Falcon's world, hoping to destroy you. Captain Falcon's powerful Soul, with its yearning for justice, protected him from the destruction that his world faced. F-Zero's world was gone and its inhabitants were now under the sway of Tabuu, in the strange borderlands of life and death. They remain prisoners and until Captain Falcon unites with the others and defeats Tabuu, he'll never see Jody Summer again.

"Captain Falcon, I believe you are one of the Twelve Reborn. Your journey has only begun, and you must travel the many worlds to gather the remaining eleven and gather an army besides. As the Overseer of Worlds, I can gift you and your allies the power to travel between all worlds. I have also gifted your Blue Falcon this same power so that you may call upon it whenever you have need. It will return here when you aren't using it. Are you ready?" asked the Overseer of Worlds.

Shakily, Captain Falcon stood up and said, "yes, I am ready. Which world do I visit first?"

"That I do not know, your powers will guide you to the place you need to be next. I suspect you will go to a world with lots of potential allies and another of the Twelve Reborn first. Take this as well: it's a copy of my notes on the worlds. Here, you'll find everything you need to know about any world you may visit." she said while handing Captain Falcon a large book.

"Thank you. How do I travel between worlds?"

"It's really as simple as a change in perspective. Close your eyes and imagine yourself traveling to a different world; when you open your eyes, you'll find yourself in the other world."

"Yes, ma'am," Captain Falcon mumbled as he closed his eyes and began to imagine another world.
