In the beginning, there were two paths; two separate routes that forked off of the road of life and led in opposite directions. These consisted of the choice of the righteous path and the choice of the wicked path. As time passed, each person's choice was made and sides were taken. The two opposites almost never remained in balance, with evil always threatening to take over, and good always struggling to maintain stability and keep the wicked in their place.
When darkness gained a new name, Tabuu, the heroes were forced to assemble to destroy the menace threatening to destroy everything. They came from all corners of the universe, from different dimensions and worlds in hopes of being strong enough to destroy Tabuu.
Though they all differed in size, shape, and background, they put everything aside and took down the great evil. Many friends were made on that journey, as well as many adversaries.
Just as many were returning home, evil began to rise again; this time armed with much greater forces. Unfortunately for some, the temptation of evil had been too great, and they had chosen to leave the brethren of heroes and join the wicked.
Suddenly, the entire universe was in peril; everything that the heroes cherished was now in danger. Although their numbers had dwindled from before, the heroes believed in their ability to take victory and assembled once more.
On the battleship Halberd is where this story begins, merely a year after the defeat of Tabuu. Sir Meta Knight steers the massive airship to the place they predict the new evil is gathering, a dark dimension that sits in the forgotten recesses of the cosmos. None of our heroes have ever ventured to this mysterious realm, but now all must go there to conquer those who endanger all that they love.
Will they succeed?
