in the world of super smash briotehrs only one can survive. this was true to all but mario, who was the king of super smash broddas because he was the main character. he was really lazy and couldn't fight too well, but maintained his power so no one noticed.
it was that day that master hand appeared and challenged mario. he was the true king of smash brothers, ruling in the shadows. he had grown sick of mario's shenanigans and decided to put him in his place
"mario, I am the rea lking of this real, fight me you jerk." said master hand
"yeah right, I'll fight me when you show me your real strength." said mario, calling master hands bluff out of fear, knowing he was an incompetent loser.
"ok." said master hand, taking out a nearby kirby trophy, downed from battle, and bringing it back to life.
soon a crowd gathered, stunned by master hand's amazing abilities. mario got nervous.
"now you shall fight me mario." said master hand.
"Uhhhhhh..." mario tried to stall. the crowd cheered on wanting the battle. mario was cracking under the pressure.
"well, maybe fighting is not the answer, ya know." said mario. the stunned crowd couldn't believe what thier king had said, was he chickening out of a fight?
"what do you mean, oh red one, do you mean there is more to smash than fighting? you know, a series of FIGHTING games, based on characters FIGHTING one another?" the master hand pointed out.
"Yes, indeed I think there is more to life than brutish fighting." said mario, trying to justify a losing battle
"like what?" said master hand
"like... love!" mario came up with on the spot
"love... I... never thought of that before." said master hand, the crowd was confused
"I... love that idea!" said master hand, mario was saved from conflict, and he remained the king of smash as the new god of love.
Every nintendo character began shipping and making love with one another, and an era of peace and joy reigned from the sky.
but all was not well.
for mario had grown feelings of his own, yet he had no lover of his own.
he had began to grow attached to the illustrius master hand, the one who had challenged him in the first place. his emotions grew, he couldn't hold it in any longer, he must confess.
he walked to master hand's house, heart feeling heavy and nervous. he knocked on the door.
"Hello? oh yes it's you, king mario." said master hand
"hi handy (that was marios cute nickname for master hand), i need to tell you something. It's important." said mario.
"what? please tell me, as your friend I must know your grieving." said master hand.
"Handy... I..." stuttered mario.
"Yes?" pushed master hand
"I love you." said mario, spitting it out in fear and adoration. mario smiled when he finally got the words out.
"you... love me. Oh mario, I wish I could say the same. But I;m afrian I have already found a love of my own. His name is crazy hand, and he really is crazy if you know what I mean ;)" said Master hand, rejecting mario of the love he felt oh so strongly for master hand.
mario, fighting back tears, struggled out a response.
"Oh, ok, i see then..." said mario as he walked away slowly in shame and sadness.
"mario..." master hand said, but before he knew it mario had run away, tears in his eyes
oh what a terrible fate has befallen mario. a bringing of love to the kingdom of smash, and yet is the only one who remains without a lover. if only he had stood up to master hand's challenge, and not wimped out. if only he had truly been the real king of smash.
in that moment mario knew what he must do. he realized he needed to remind the kingdom of smash, what smashing really meant.
mario began to work out, preparing himself for the long fight ahead...
