Hey everyone! Welcome to the first chapter of Power Academy! As you know, thanks for the submits! I'm still accepting until probably the third chapter, where things will be finalized.
I'm very interested in using these characters, and I'm hoping for more when readers come by. I'm favoring a bit more towards the male side in OC's, but I'm still accepting females.
Anyway, for those who read S.O.G Brawlers, this takes place post-Brawlers. Warning, this may have some spoilers if you didn't guess them already. More of my comments will be on the bottom.
Chapter 1
The New School
It was an average morning around the campus of Power Academy. The entire campus was very large in area. It was within the area of New Pork City just a couple of miles from it. The campus could be seen from the highest point of the city. Today, numerous students were going to attend, blissfully unaware of what awaited them on their new adventure.
Mikee was extremely bored as he was lying on his back in the grass. He was next to a lake which had some Pokemon swimming in its crystal clear waters. He sighed and gazed up at the partly cloudy sky. Man, things get really calm around here, but now this is just the beginning. Mikee began thinking as his mind wandered back to his old times.
He remembered the defeat of Ganondorf and the destruction of the Meta. His hardships were the worst he's been through, but now even bigger things crossed his mind. He closed his eyes and recalled the battle. The urge to fight made him want to train. It was in his blood to fight. This school business was going to drive him nuts. Master Hand was going to announce who was going to do what in the Power Academy in half an hour. Mikee figured that either he went and beat up Wario for a warm-up or test the Clone Battlefield (A Training Battlefield where you fight clones that fight you.). Mikee decided to go to the Clone Battlefield.
Dawn, on the other hand was excited about the Power Academy. She helped set up a lot of things, but she currently was looking for Mikee. Everything was done for the day and she wanted to spend some time before the Academy began for the first time. Some of the Smashers were going around with the final preparations. She stopped Ike, who was holding a crate.
"Ike, have you seen Mikee around?" She asked the mercenary.
"Yeah, he went off towards the Lower Campus. He said he was going to test the Clone Battlefield with R.O.B to see if it works. Lucky guy though, I'd rather fight than lift heavy things all day." Ike complained.
"Okay, thanks Ike!" Dawn said and ran off to the Lower Campus. Ike merely grumbled a bit as he continued onward, lifting the crate to the Mess Hall.
The Power Academy campus was separated into two: the Upper Campus and the Lower Campus. The Upper Campus was home to the Cafeteria, most machinery, library, dorms, and most important; the Brawl Stage.
Lower Campus was home to many of the physical classes and a lot of training fields. It was also home to the Clone Battlefield and the APG, or All-Purpose Gym. Dawn had no problem finding the Clone Battlefield, since it was basically a dome stadium. She ran in and saw flashes of light.
Mikee was in the normal Battlefield stage, facing off against two other clones of him. One had blonde hair while the other had red. Mikee charged towards Blonde by vanishing and reappearing behind the clone, sending a kick to the back of its skull. Red charged and fired a huge flurry of beams at him. Mikee's fists glowed brightly and he blocked the beams by redirecting them away. Red vanished and appeared behind Mikee, swinging its fist. Mikee ducked as the fist swiped his hair. He grabbed Red's arm and slammed his palm into the red clone's stomach, unleashing a massive close-range blast and eliminating him.
Blonde got up and unleashed a huge beam current at Mikee. He crossed his arms and blocked it as it pushed him to the edge of the stage. He started pushing it back and he finished off Blonde by unleashing his own beam blast and completely disintegrating the clone. The match was finally over as the stadium shut down. He relaxed and heard clapping.
Dawn was there, clapping for him. "Pretty good, your defense is improving. At least you're getting better." She told him and smiled. Mikee nodded and jumped to her, sitting next to her. She had a slight blush, and she looked at the stadium. Her thoughts were on Mikee lately. She smiled at him and he smiled back.
Ike finally put the crate in the Mess Hall, sweating a bit. The mercenary wasn't used to lugging around supplies like this. Besides, he was done, and soon enough Master Hand would announce the roles of everyone in the school. Marth and Link were lifting things too and Ike went to help them.
"Thanks Ike. Hey, have you heard from Mikee or Dawn? They're supposed to be helping too." Link asked the mercenary.
"Yeah, Mikee went to test the Clone Battlefield and Dawn went to check up on him. You know the lovey-dovey stuff like you and Zelda would do." Ike mentioned, elbowing the Hylian. Link blushed a bit.
"Oh, shut it Ike. Besides, now isn't the time to get romantic. We have business to do, and we have no time to be lazy." Link mentioned, taking a seat on an empty chair.
"On the contrary, now it is peace time Link, and they haven't spent time together for quite a while, except only in the infirmary when Mikee was recovering from a vicious battle. I think it gives them the quality time they deserve, don't you?" Marth asked, bringing up a decent point.
"But, Brawl is in greater danger than ever. Remember what Ganondorf said when we stopped him? 'The Horde will be coming to devour this universe.' It will go after our individual universes. Don't you think we need to prepare for the Horde when the time comes?" Link mentioned, looking stern.
Ike shook his head. "We're heroes. We have all of our power sources in one place and in secret places, like Mikee and Dawn both split the Power Orbs between each other to keep them safe. Sonic hid all the Chaos Emeralds, and Mario hid the Star Spirits. When they come, we'll just unleash our full power against them, and bye-bye threat." Ike calmly said, kicking back.
"Well, based on how Mikee described the Horde creatures and their leaders, even our strongest may not be enough. Their Shadow King and Queen are rumored to be invincible. Mario remembered his version of the Shadow Queen, but Mikee described it perfectly that she was very dangerous. The King was no different, and that they feast on the source Mikee calls, 'Black Energy.'" Marth explained.
"Well, no matter thinking about it now. We'll fight them when the time comes. Now, we just have to keep getting stronger." Ike commented and got up. Marth agreed and both of them went away. Link stayed behind, his mind still on the Horde Mikee mentioned during that day.
Mikee described that long ago, the Horde attacked them, and they barely pushed them back, but at the cost of one of their own. He said the Shadow Queen was the biggest threat, while the Shadow King was just brute force. He described the Queen having parasite-like attributes, and only goes into females. Mikee told me and Mario later to be especially cautious to Princess Peach and Zelda. If the Queen knew how close our bonds were, she would go after them.
He said that it will just remain in hiding inside a person's energy, absorbing all of the bad emotions, causing abnormal behavior in a person. They do nothing evil and partake in no evil deeds, not even the occasional prank. Secondly, after absorbing enough, they start to take over, and the host becomes extremely violent. Final Stage is when it bursts out of the host body and uses it as a medium to the world's heroes to threaten about the destruction of their world.
Mikee told us that it took over Kari, and that he had to kill her, but somehow, he was able to remove the Queen from Kari's energy and obliterate her. He's not sure of he could do the same trick again, but he told us specifically to make sure our princess's were safe. I just have a bad feeling about all this. The Hylian thought and left, getting a bit worried. The image of his Master Sword slaying a possessed Princess Zelda hit his mind. He shuddered and walked on.
Mikee and Dawn were walking back to the Upper Campus. They were chatting and Dawn was laughing happily with him.
"So, I was facing off against Captain Falcon, and all of a sudden, the arena changed to one of those epic stand-offs. I jumped after him, yelling in Japanese, but there were subtitles below me, and I yelled, 'I AM NOT FOR DIE! YOU DIE!' He jumps in after me, yelling, 'FALCON PAWNCH!' and punches me epically with over-excessive power and I see Sonic yelling Falcon's name. The area explodes with fury and then the match was over." Mikee explained, looking a bit mad. Dawn giggled a bit.
"Hold on, you yelled in Japanese, but there were subtitles below you?" She asked him.
"Yeah, and then he punched me with some kind of new power. It was really weird." Mikee explained.
"Well, I should participate more in Brawls then. Maybe something as unique as that would happen to me." She told him. The weather was pretty nice today, but a bit chilly. The winter season was beginning to kick in, and Halloween was on its way. Autumn leaves were blowing softly along the wind currents. A breeze blew past the two warriors, making Dawn's hair flow back a bit. Mikee saw it and how cute she looked. His face turned slightly red and then they both heard someone.
"Mikee, Dawn, there you are!" Lucas yelled as he ran to them. He was out of breath.
"Lucas, what's wrong?" Dawn asked.
"The ceremony starts in about five minutes, we have to be there!" Lucas told them. Dawn was about to run when Mikee held her hand and stopped her.
"Mikee, we're going to be late!" She told him, not noticing him holding her hand.
"No need to rush. Get close to me Lucas." Mikee told the youngest psychic. Confused but obedient, he was close. Mikee closed his eyes and the Power Orb of Light came out.
"Shadow Warp." He said and the three of them vanished with a flash.
They reappeared instantly in front of the Auditorium. Lucas looked surprised and forgot that Mikee had warping powers, and then noticed that he looked a bit tired. It also drained his energy a bit too.
"Come on; let's go in, they're waiting!" Lucas told them until there was another flash just above the building. Mikee and Dawn looked and saw an ebony-black hedgehog with red highlights in his quills and a white mane. He looked a bit irritated and the hedgehog looked at Mikee and Dawn.
"So, you're the famous Mikee Sonic keeps talking about." He told Mikee mainly, almost ignoring Dawn.
"Who are you?" Mikee asked, putting a smirk on his face. The ebony hedgehog held a green Chaos Emerald in his palm.
"I am the Ultimate Life-Form, Shadow the Hedgehog." He introduced.
"I see you're one of the newcomers to the school, right?" Dawn asked.
"Yeah, did it take you that long to figure out?" Shadow asked pretty bluntly. She looked a bit irritated, but she didn't say a word.
"Well, Shadow, I hope we face each other in a match one day." Mikee said and offered a handshake. Shadow scoffed and went to the doors. Mikee looked a bit riled up too. That guy is going to get on my nerves. Mikee thought.
"Oh, so you met Shadow?" Sonic asked, surprised. The cobalt blue hedgehog asked Mikee and Dawn while they were sitting down. The Auditorium was pretty massive from the inside, enough to hold all of the Smashers and even more, like holding a personal army. Everything was sort of regal red and a huge chandelier hung in the ceiling. In the front of them was a large wooden podium with a stand. It had a microphone. Around the podium were crimson red curtains.
"Yeah, he's a royal jerk. Fifteen seconds flat, hah. I could beat him within ten." Mikee told them, crossing his arms.
"Hey, Shadow isn't that mean. He's just not used to other people. He's been through a lot, just like you have." Sonic told Mikee. The cobalt hedgehog glanced over to his copy sitting in another seat away from them.
"Come to think of it, weren't you the same way when you came to Brawl?" Mario asked from behind, surprising Dawn a bit.
"I wasn't that anti-social." Mikee complained.
"Yes you were." The Smashers around him told Mikee, whose face turned red a bit.
"Besides, you'll get to like him. He's pretty good when it comes to Chaos attacks. Shadow is one great opponent to fight." Sonic finished as Master Hand floated on the podium. There was a loud bang and all the Smashers were silenced.
"Good, now that I have everyone's attention, let's begin our meeting. Today is the day before we open the school. Tomorrow, the students will be flooding in, ready to learn on how to defend them. Today, I will announce news and then everyone's roles for the school.
"Now, for the first part of the news. I am sure that some of you have noticed some new faces. Crazy and I personally invited some characters from each of your worlds to come to the school and help. We'll need everyone to defend the school in case of an attack. Some will be patrolling the school day shifts and even night shifts. This goes for some teachers too. I have invited several, and more will be coming, once Professor E. Gadd finishes the Dimensional Transporter." Master Hand said.
Mikee looked confused until Mario told him, "The professor Master Hand mentioned is from the Mushroom Kingdom. He's pretty good with machinery and the."
"Hah, Tails could do better!" Sonic brought up to the plumber and both rivals glared at each other. Mikee shook his head and Dawn sweat-dropped at the sight of their sparks.
"There are some who have arrived here because they possess dimension warping powers. Anyway, in other news, now that this school has been built, the dark forces have been a bit active. We need to be extra cautious this time around.
"Now, for the teacher positions. Everyone has today to check on their classrooms and to set them up for the first day. There, you will also have a list and complete up-to-date profiles of the students that will be attending your classes. You will learn these students by name. Some will be even the Smashers, some will be new. I just want everyone to be friendly, and no causing fights. Teachers have been assigned based on your current abilities. This is the list." Master Hand said and an overhead screen rolled down. On it were different names and such with taught classes.
Gym - Capt. Falcon & Sonic the Hedgehog
Close-Quarters Combat - Lucario
Weapons - Link
Swordplay - Meta Knight
Energy Control - Mikee Aeros
Guns - Samus
Healing - Dawn
Sorcery/Magic - Princess Zelda
Survival - Ice Climbers
Mechanic - Fox
Strategy - Ike
Hero Basics - Mario
Brawl Basics - Pit
Stealth - Snake
Aerial Combat - Falco
A lot of commotion broke up after the said list was revealed.
"Master Hand, why does Captain Falcon have to be paired with his rival, Sonic?" Captain Falcon complained.
"EVERYONE SILENCE!" Master Hand boomed, literally shaking the building. Everyone went silent as Master Hand sort of growled.
"The Gym class takes every student in the school. It needs two teachers to teach all those students, so I expect the both of you to cooperate like men, and well-behaved hedgehogs, or else." He threatened. Falcon just crossed his arms and sulked in his seat.
"All right, now that we have our classes, the rest of you will patrol the school and keep look-out duty for day and night shifts. For clean-up crews, King Dedede was happy to lend in his Waddle Dee numbers to keep our campus looking good. Game & Watch will handle Cafeteria food using a Clone Maker for himself, so that is settled. I have already selected Dorm Leaders for the two dorms: the Light Dorm and the Dark Dorm. The leaders are in pairs, since we can't have boys and girls sleeping in the same room. The two leaders of the Light Dorm will be Princess Peach and Olimar, while the Dark Dorm has Wolf and Jigglypuff as leaders.
Dorm leaders will watch and protect the students at night as well as be their friends, like councilors. Now that I told everyone their roles, go on and see your classrooms. Afterward, head to the dorms to sleep for the night. That is all." Master Hand announced and vanished with a poof.
Everyone soon flooded out of the Auditorium, looking for their classes. Mikee was thinking about why he was chosen to control energy. He wasn't that good, and he still had some work to do. Was the reason because of the Burst Mode? Were the students going to use it now?
Dawn looked pretty excited about her role. Teaching on how to heal people, and maybe one of them could learn the Radiant Burst too, in case Mikee ever lost control, or if someone else did. She smiled, imagining the moment's teacher and pupil would have. She couldn't wait! The Healing class was on the Upper Campus, while Energy Control was on the Lower Campus. Mikee and Dawn both reached the crossroads.
"All right, I'll meet you outside of your classroom, so that we can hang out for tonight. Is that all right?" He asked her.
"That's fine with me! See you tonight." Dawn said and they both left for their separate ways.
Captain Falcon was already in the APG, running laps around the gym as fast as he could. Running always seemed to calm him down whenever he was angry at something, especially with his speed rival as his partner. He got used to the APG, seeing how it could be converted into many things. Running Tracks, Physical Training, all types of fields too. There was even a racetrack too for Air Gear and Air Ride vehicles from Sonic's and Kirby's universe. This made Captain Falcon happy. So many things to do at this school for Captain Falcon to enjoy. He just had to figure out how to defeat Sonic at a race. The racer pondered about it and wasn't aware that he was still running and he ran flat into a wall.
Mikee found the Energy Control classroom, which was actually pretty comforting to the warrior. It was a large and empty work-out gym. Nothing was out, expect for a huge pile of equipment on one side of the room. There were numerous sandbags too, perfect for punching and testing out attacks. The Smashers talked about the Sandbags often, describing it as indestructible. A grin came across Mikee's face as he grabbed one. He picked it up and placed it behind him. Mikee spun on one foot, increasing his momentum and slammed the bag with his fist. It slammed into the wall and fell on its side. Mikee warped to it and gave it a good kick, slamming it into the other side of the classroom.
Not bad. Mikee thought.
Dawn liked her classroom; it had some desks that needed to be arranged, a huge table for patients and demonstrations, and even all the medical supplies. She organized everything for her own needs and she sat down on one of the chairs. Dawn pulled open the filing cabinet and looked at the different student files. There were tons, but mainly the ones taking her classes. They were interesting to her, especially from all the universes they came from.
These are some interesting characters, especially this Zarya Kolt character. She could transform into a dragon and control ice and water. It's been so long since I've seen a Water element work, or even a dragon. Dragons though, a real mythical creature. That'll be fun to see. Dawn thought and smiled.
It was now dusk; and the sun was setting in the horizon, both Mikee and Dawn watching it together with no one else bothering them. They were unaware of the figures watching them from a distance. It was only three of them, and each of them had blood red eyes. They were looking at the pair watching the sunset.
"So, Mikee is still alive, just like they said he was." The tallest figure said; who had a metallic grey claw on his right arm.
"Well of course. Why would they bring us back to life? They ordered us to eliminate them. That will be easy." The shortest one said, having a red fire dance around her.
"It won't be. Latest rumor says that Mikee has unlocked the form beyond Perfect Mode. It will be a better challenge for us." The medium one said, glowing with a dark energy.
"It doesn't matter, if we strike at his heart, then he'll give in." Metallic Arm told them.
"You are crazy. He protects her like he used to Kari. He will have to be dealt with first." Fire told Metallic Arm.
"Fine, let's go before we're discovered." Dark muttered and the three of them warped away.
Wow, this was my longest so far! Power Academy will have more words than my other stories since there's more things involved.
This is basically running on the same plot as the sequel to S.O.G Brawlers, which I'm still finding a title. xP
Also, VERY IMPORTANT! I'm letting you guys pick more than three, but up to six. Three won't be enough though anymore, and everyone has gym, so that's a total of seven classes.
Last thing, some of you submitted via PSP, DSi, etc, I need you to please copy and paste the form from last chapter and please send it to me PM or on review. I didn't get all the information I needed from those systems.
For those who are just reading, I'm still accepting OC's, so submit if you like!
Anyway, I never filled out this myself, so these are for my two characters. They're still up for romantic interests.
Name: Michael Aeros
Nickname: Mikee
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Home: Planet Aeros, Earth, and now Brawl
Family: Mother and Father were the strongest of his clan; older brother was stronger than he was.
Powers: He's able to use solar energy to his advantage and convert it into pure energy beams. He also increases physical strength and speed using his Aeros Powers.
Strong Points/Skills: Mikee is excellent at close combat and medium range beam attacks. He knows his way in a fight and can control his energy.
Weak Points: Mikee is quick to anger at times, and will do anything to protect the ones he cares about, especially Dawn. He's also weak against Dark-type attacks, ironic that he likes Dawn.
Combat Style: Close Combat-Medium Range.
Classes: N/A
Opinion: N/A
Personality: Mikee has become a bit more social to the Smashers, but mainly to Dawn. He loves to fight and train, but he understands if someone doesn't want to train with him. During times when he's remembering his past though, he's quiet and prone to anger. During events, he looks annoyed, but he won't be when around Dawn. If someone interrupts their time together, then he's angry.
History: Mikee was born in the Aeros clan, hence his last name, which was the strongest clan in his universe. He's the fabled 'Hero of Light', which is the slayer to an enemy race called the Horde. One time though, his father, brother, and several of his friends got together and started killing their own clan members in a massive genocide strike. They almost got to Mikee until he unleashed his beast inside and killed off the last of the Aeros clan. He trained and flew around the universe, until he crashed on Earth, where he met his friends.
There, he fought against the evil forces. When the Horde appeared though, he had enough strength to push them back, until one of their soldiers, the Meta, went after the Power Orbs. Mikee and his team (Which included Dawn) raced to collect them as well until they had a final confrontation. During that fight, Mikee was supposed to be dead until Ganondorf reached to him from a different dimension and took control of his DeathPhoenix form, killing all his friends and warping to Brawl.
(Read S.O.G Brawlers to see the next part of his history.)
Secrets: Even though he has his Death & Final Phoenix forms under control, there's a chance he can unleash them. He can also go beyond the Perfect Mode thanks to his training in Brawl. Mikee still blames himself for what he couldn't prevent during the day Ganondorf took over.
Love Interests: Dawn Raiga, because she's the only girl from his universe that survived.
Likes: Fighting, training, using his Burst Mode, challenging a tougher opponent, punching Sandbags around, and being around Dawn.
Dislikes: Newspaper articles, public events, people who interrupt his moments with Dawn.
Birthday: December
