Alright, this is my first super smash bros. fic, and if I don't pull it off with some reveiws, I might not even add new chapters, so I will not work on the next chapter untill I get at least 5 reviews, good or bad.

The Legend of the Dark

"This is it Master Hand!" yelled Link, jumping high and using gravity to strengthen his final attack.

"NOOOOOO!" screamed the hand as the sword ripped through the cloth glove. Link had saved the worlds and won the second Super Smash Bros. Tournament.

"Yes, finally! He's dead." He said as he collapsed on Final Destination. All of the competitors in the tournament helped Link onto his feat and walked him to the portal to take the competitors back to their respective worlds.

"Link, just because I'm helping you now doesn't mean that I'm not going to take Hyrule and your life when we get back," Gannondorf said, smirking

"I wouldn't have it any other way," said the young Hylian, and laughed as he said it

'Hmm, Hyrule's getting really boring after the tournament, Gannon's just stopped attacking, that either means he's planning something big, he's giving up, or something has happened to him, but I doubt the last one, because I haven't killed him and I don't think anyone else could.' Link thought while sitting on top of the wall protecting Hyrule City, about two years after the events of Melee. The land of Hyrule was a peaceful place after the second Super Smash Bros. Tournament ended, and Link didn't know what to do. 'Zelda's father is still really protective, and he won't let me get too close to her.'

He stood up and started running towards the castle stables, jumping from rooftop to rooftop. As he jumped from a houses roof to the Happy Mask Shop, he lost his footing and slipped. Within a blink of an eye, he pulled out his trusty longshot and shot it at the roof of the shop, saving the life of the Master of Time. "Never leave home without it" he joked to himself as he jumped to a ledge of rock that led to the Hyrule Castle.

Even though all of the guards and saved the land of Hyrule more than once, he still had to sneak around. He never forgot the shifts of the guards, and that helped him to sneak into the castle. As he snuck around the guards, he almost had to knock one of the guards out, because he though the guard saw him, but he was mistaken.

After thirty minuets of stealth, Link got to Zelda's Throne room. "I'm going to the Gerudo Valley, so I'll need Epona," he said to her.

"Alright, Epona's in the stables, if you don't want to do the sneaky-sneaky thing again, take these robes," she said, holding out a grubby looking gray cloak. Link took it, and put it around his neck. "You look like a regular stable hand!"

"I don't know if that's supposed to be a complement or an insult, I really need to move Epona to Lon Lon." He said as he left.

When he left the throne room, he had no problem getting to the stables. He got into the stables and looked around. "Epona!" he whispered. The faithful horse came out and then lowered it's head. Link mounted her and rode off in the night towards the Gerudo Valley.

He rode until the sun rose over the horizon on the Hyrule Fields and then he saw the gap in the mountain, the entrance to the land of Gerudo. When he came to the rope bridge he left his horse, and set off on foot.

"I… will not… leave this… to stand!" said the voice of Master Hand from the depths of Final Definition. The giant glove shot up, out of the dark depths of the arena. "I shall call them again, and DESTROY THEM!" he said snapping his fingers and sending a message to all of the smashers in their respective worlds wherever they are. "All of you, you know the drill, come to the tournament or your world gets destroyed. Now, say your name in order to enter, and if you enter, consider your planet safe."

Simultaneously everyone who was in the previous tournament said their name, and all at once they all appeared on a flat platform and all of the fighters mixed with their friends that they made in the previous tournaments, but there was one person missing.

"Hey, where's Gannondorf? Link, did you kill him?" asked Kirby

"No, I didn't, in fact, he hasn't attacked Hyrule since the last tournament. I was on a trip to his homeland when I heard the hand calling us to fight in the tournament. I thought that Gannondorf would be here, but apparently he's not," said Link

"Gannon may not be here, but that guy over there is new, and he took his place," Falco said as he pointed over his shoulder to a young-looking man in a black cloak with a hood that covered his entire face, except for a little slit for vision. "Does anyone know this guy?"

Everyone shrugged just as Master Hand appeared. "Ahem, alright, enough with the asking of 'who is who'. I sure don't know who he is, but he seems to have been a godsend, he will fill in for Gannondorf. But all of that aside, I have to announce the match ups.

"Fight 1: Zelda vs. Pichu

"Fight 2: Roy vs. Donkey Kong

"Fight 3: Cloaked Man vs. Bowser

"Fight 4: Fox vs. Jigglypuff

"And for you Link, since you were the winner of the last tournament, you automatically advance to the semifinals of block 2 (Fight 9-12)."

"Aww, that's no fun for me, you should put a weak person in the semifinals," whined Link

"At least you don't have to face someone half your size!" retorted Bowser, upset at his match up with the unknown fighter.

"Now, now you two, it's just about time for the first match to begin," boomed Master Hand

Alright, next episode: Zelda vs. Pichu, who will win? And just so you know, these results and fights are actually based on a real tournament that I did once, so I'm not playing favorites unless it affects the pre-thought up story.
