ARMS: From Nothing to Everything


This is a oneshot for the recent Switch game known simply as ARMS. Not sure if there are others out there, so check this out while you can. Anyways, on with the story. BTW, this is told from the POV of Spring Man.


There I was, staring at the crowd in shock and woe, as I amazed so many loyal fans. I even surprised myself. Who knew such a half-pint like me could reach this level of ARMS mastering. My first championship match was a doozy. I fell behind right away, losing the first 2 rounds. I eventually came back and forced a fifth round, but I found myself out of breath and on the floor once more. I should probably explain how I got here. I suppose it started when I attended the first competition at my high school.

My name is Daniel Ferguson (If this is your name, it was an unintentional coincidence), and I was about to sign up for my first ARMS match. They gave me the name Spring Man, because I was born with spring-like arms. The first time was not as well as I'd hoped. I was put against somebody who had years of experience under their belt. Long story short, I got my ass whooped. The school started making fun of me, calling me names, and telling me I was not ARMS material. The next match, I proved them wrong. I used the negative energy around me to become stronger. I was put against someone with little experience, and I wiped him out. Literally. A guy came up to me and asked if I wanted to compete nationally. I accepted the offer, eager to prove to everyone else in this nation, and even the world, that I was a force to be reckoned with.

When the first match came around, I was more than ready for whatever approached me. I took out Ribbon Girl in two rounds, then I was placed in the second match with Twinelle. Twinelle managed to beat me in the first round, but I bounced back in the next two. Then came the semifinals, and I was almost out of energy when I went up against Ninjara. We exchanged blows with each other, and found ourselves in a do-or-die fifth round. With one swift uppercut, and enough energy to power up a devastating blow, I managed to defeat Ninjara, and advance to the championship. Then I had to face Helix. He was unlike any opponent I have ever gone up against. He was so supernatural, I found some of his abilities unfair to mine in comparison. He knocked me out in the first two rounds. I was at my wit's end. This was it for me. I managed to somehow beat him in the third round, and I carried that momentum into round four. However, in the fifth round, I fell behind very quickly. He was wailing left and right, making him impossible to dodge. He ran out of breath, and this gave me the perfect chance to strike. I did the same thing he did, and I put one last blow on him, and knocked him out cold. I won the ARMS championship, my first ever. The crowd flew outta their seats and started chanting my name. I never thought I'd see this day before my very eyes. And they said I was a bottom-tier fighter.


I hope you enjoyed it. It's a oneshot, so it's pretty short. Anyways, thanks for reading! StAy GlItChY eVeRyOnE!
