Smashing Parodies

Amiibo Story Part 1

It was rather peaceful in what looked to be a child's bedroom, which was decorated with a sky blue wallpaper with clouds on them. Boxes were placed everywhere, with drawings to make them look like some kind of town, with a wanted poster of a criminal. Suddenly, a dark-winged angel figure holding a staff appeared.

"Alright, everyone. This is a stickup. Don't anybody move! Now empty that safe." A blue-haired young man emptied out all the money in a small plastic safe. "Money, money, money!" The dark angel laughed as he "kissed" the coins.

"Stop it! Stop it, you dark-winged monster!" A rather feminine voice shouted, which was a figure of a young woman with long green hair.

"Quiet, and bow before me, Lady Palutena! Or else the centurions will get eaten!" The dark angel pointed to a ramp, where three small humans with winged helmets were being held captive by a green dinosaur.

"Oh, no! Not the centurions! Somebody, do something!"

Then, another figure approached the scene, and it was a man with black clothes and white hair. "Reach for the sky!"

"Oh, no. It's Robin!"

"I'm here to stop you, Dark-Winged Bart!"

"D'oh! How'd you know it was me?"

"Are you gonna come quietly?"

"You can't touch me, tactician! I've brought my Pokémon with a built-in force field!" Then a figure of a certain Grass/Poison-type Pokémon was placed in front of the dark angel.

"Well, I've brought my puffball, who eats force-field Pokémon!" The tactician summoned a figure of a pink puffball, who pushed the Pokémon out of the way with it. "You're going to jail, Bart. Say goodbye to your wife and angelits." The dark angel was then placed in jail, which was actually a crib, where a baby grabbed the figure and started banging it against the crib.

Latias 4.5 presents...

"You saved the day again, Robin!" A child by the name of Kevin Keene happily announced, and then spoke the deep voice he used earlier. "You're my favorite partner."

Amiibo Story

As the song "You've Got a Friend in Me" plays, Kevin plays around with Robin in his bedroom and down the stairs and into the living room, where his mother was preparing for his birthday party. Even though Kevin's real birthday wasn't for another week, his mother had decided to have one last party in their old home before they would move to a new house.

"Wow, cool!"

"What do you think?"

"Oh, this looks great, Mom! Can we leave this up 'til we move?"

"Well, sure. We can leave it up. Now go get Molly. Your friends are going to be here any minute."

"Okay! It's party time, Robin!" Kevin headed upstairs, taking Robin with him as he went into his bedroom where Molly was still playing with the dark angel figure. "Hey there, little lady." Kevin then placed Robin on his bed and picked up his little sister. "Come on, Molly. Oh, you're getting heavy. See you later, Robin!"

As soon as the door was shut, the Robin figure started blinking, and then he sat up and sighed. "You've got to be kidding, the birthday party's today?! Okay, everybody, coast is clear! Ages three and up."

And then as if by magic, all of the toys in the room came to life.

Dark Pit picked himself off the ground and groaned. "'Ages three and up'. It's on my box. 'Ages three and up'. I'm not supposed to be baby-sitting Princess Drool." He then moved his face around. "Hey, Marth, look. I'm Picasso!"

"I don't get it." Marth shook his head in confusion as he walked away.

"You uncultured pretty-boy! What are you looking at, ya masked imp?" Dark Pit asked angrily at a Shy Guy, who just shrugged in confusion.

Meanwhile, Robin was searching around for someone. "Uh, hey, Fox, have you seen Ivysaur?"

"Sir, no sir!"

"Okay. Hey, thank you. At ease. Hey, uh, Ivysaur?"

"Right here, Robin. I'm red this time." Ivysaur said, eagerly waiting to play a game of checkers.

"No, Ivy-"

"Oh, well, all right. You can be red if you want."

"N-Not now, Ivy. I got some bad news."

"Bad news?!" Ivysaur asked in shock, before Robin shushed him as everyone looked at them.

"Just gather everyone up for a staff meeting, and be happy."

"Got it." Ivysaur nodded as he walked away.

"Be happy!" Robin called out, and Ivysaur laughed. He then approached a two-dimensional silhouette. "Hey, Game & Watch. Draw!" Mr. G&W then turned around and pulled out a two-dimensional gun out of hammerspace. "Oh! Got me again. Game & Watch, you've been working on that draw. Now, where is that...Oh. Hey, who moved my doodle pad way over by the track?" Suddenly, a pink puffball jumped in front of Robin with a shout. "Uh, how're you doing, Kirby?"

"Were you surprised? Tell me honestly."

"I was close to being surprised that time."

"Oh, I'm going for fearsome here, but I just don't feel it! I think I'm just coming off as annoying."

Robin suddenly felt someone grab him, and that someone turned him around to reveal that it was the love of his life. "Oh, hi, Lady Palutena. Hi."

"I wanted to thank you, Robin, for saving my troops."

"Oh, hey, it was, uh, nothing." Robin replied nervously as he blushed slightly.

"What do you say I get someone else to watch the centurions tonight?" Palutena asked with a grin.

"Oh, yeah. I-" Robin chuckled nervously.

"Remember, I'm just a couple of blocks away." Palutena replied with a wink as she walked away.

"Come on, come on. Smaller toys up front. Hey, Robin, come on." Ivysaur called out.

Robin stepped up to the podium and a blue robot handed him a microphone. "Oh, thanks, Mike. Okay...Check. Everybody hear me? Up on the shelf, can you hear me? Great. Okay, first item today: uh...oh, yeah. Has everyone picked a moving buddy?"

"Moving buddy?! You can't be serious." Marth muttered.

"Well, I didn't know we were supposed to have one already." Kirby said.

"Do we have to hold hands?" Dark Pit asked in a mocking tone.

"Oh, yeah. You guys think this is a big joke. We've only got one week left before the move. I don't want any toys left behind. A moving buddy. If you don't have one, get one! Right! Oh, yes. Tuesday night's plastic corrosion awareness meeting...was, I think, a big success, and we want to thank R.O.B. for putting that on for us. Thank you, R.O.B."

"You're welcome." R.O.B. replied in a robotic tone.

"Okay. Uh, oh, yes. One minor note here. Kevin's birthday party has been moved to today. Next we have-"

"What?!" Everyone gasped.

"What do you mean his party's today?! His birthday isn't until next week!" Kirby exclaimed.

"What's going on down there?! You don't think his mom is losing her marbles, do you?!" Marth asked as he was watching the meeting from the bookshelf.

"Well, obviously, she wanted to have the party before the move. We shouldn't be worried."

"Of course Robin ain't worried. He's been Kevin's favorite since kindergarden." Dark Pit stated.

"Hey, hey. Come on, Dark Pit. If Robin says it's all right, then, well darn it, it's good enough for me. Robin has never steered us wrong before." Ivysaur replied.

"Come on, guys. Every Christmas and birthday we go through this."

"But what if Kevin gets another puffball? A mean one? I just don't think I could take that kind of rejection!"

"Hey, listen. No one's getting replaced. This is Kevin we're talking about. It doesn't matter how much we'll be played with. What matters is that we're here for Kevin when he needs us. That's what we're made for, right?"

"Hey, I don't mean to break the staff meeting, but...THEY'RE HERE! BIRTHDAY GUESTS AT 3:00!" Marth screamed, and then everyone started to panic.

"Stay calm, everyone!" Robin called out, but everyone rushed over to the window. "Uh...meeting adjurned."

"Ho boy, will you take a look at all those presents?" Marth asked as everyone looked out the window.

"I can't see a thing." Dark Pit complained, and then climbed on top of Ivysaur so he could see better.

"Yep. We're next month's garage sale fodder for sure." Marth muttered.

"Any round-shaped ones?" Kirby asked.

"Oh, for crying out loud. They're all in boxes, you idiot."

"They're getting bigger!"

"Wait, there's a nice little one over there." Dark Pit pointed to a kid which had what looked to be a small present, but then turned around to reveal that it was actually a long present. Everyone gasped in horror.

"Spell the word: trash can." R.O.B. beeped.

"We're doomed!" Kirby wailed.

"All right, all right! If I send out the troops, will you all calm down?" Robin asked.

"Yes! Yes! We promise!" Kirby begged.

"Okay! Save your batteries."

"Eh, very good, Robin. That's using the old noodle." Marth remarked.

"Fox, establish a recon post downstairs. Code Red! You know what to do."

"Yes, sir! All right, men. You heard him. Code Red! Repeat: we are at Code Red. Recon plan Charlie. Execute! Let's move, move, move, move, move!" Fox ordered, and him and his Star Fox crew marched out the door.

The door slowly creaked open as Fox peeked through the crack. Once the coast is clear, he signaled for the others to march out of the room, carrying a baby monitor and a jump rope. They carefully hopped onto the stairs and Fox used his binoculars to scan the scene. Down below, Mrs. Keene was getting ready to round up the children.

"Okay, kids! Everyone to the living room. It's almost time for presents."

Once everyone was out of sight, Fox motioned for the others to move. Falco and Peppy jumped through the railing, parachuting down onto the downstairs floor. They then scanned the area, and then made the sign that the coast was clear. The jump rope lowered, and Fox and Slippy slid down with the monitor. They then marched across the floor when the suddenly heard footsteps. They all froze into their original positions just as Mrs. Keene came down the hallway.

"Alright, Kevin. I've got some treats for your-" Mrs. Keene gasped when she suddenly stepped on something. She lifted her foot and sighed. "How many times do I have to tell that boy not to leave his toys lying around?"

Once Mrs. Keene was gone, Fox motioned the others towards a houseplant that allowed them to see into the living room. He then went over to help his injured teammate.

"Go on without me! Just go!" Peppy begged.

"A good soldier never leaves a man behind." Fox then helped Peppy over to the houseplant where and were putting in the baby monitor. Just as they were almost there however, the sound of footsteps came down the hallway again. Luckily, they managed to hide themselves in the plant just as the children ran by.

Meanwhile, back in the bedroom, everyone waited eagerly for the troops to come in.

"Come in, Mother Bird. This is Alpha Bravo."

"This is it, guys!" Robin said excitedly.

"Come in, Mother Bird."

"Quiet, quiet, quiet!"

"Alright, Kevin's opening the first present now."

"I hope it's a Rosalina Amiibo." Dark Pit pleaded, and then everyone looked at him strangely. "Hey, a guy can dream, can he?"

"The bow's coming off. He's ripping the wrapping paper. It's a...It's a...a lunch box. We've got a lunch box here."

"A lunch box?!" Marth groaned.

"For his lunch." Ivysaur laughed.

"Okay, second present. It appears to be...bed sheets."

"Who invited that kid?" Dark Pit asked.

"Okay, we're on the last present now."

"Last present!"

"It's a big one. It's a...It's a board game! Repeat: Battleship."

Everyone cheered upon hearing that.

"See? What did I tell you? Nothing to worry about."

"I knew you we're right all along, Robin." Ivysaur smiled.

"Come in, Mother Bird. Come in, Mother Bird. Mom has pulled a surprise present from the closet. Kevin's opening it. He's really excited about this one. It's a huge package."

"It's a what?! What is it?!" Kirby asked as he shook the monitor, causing it to fall to the ground and the batteries fell out.

"Great job, you idiot. Now how will we guess what it is?" Dark Pit groaned.

"Hold on, guys." Robin said calmly as he put the batteries back inside.

"Red alert! Red alert! Kevin is coming upstairs! Repeat! Resume your positions now! Hurry!"

Everyone quickly rushed back into their original positions just as Kevin and his friends came into the room. He placed his new present on the bed, not noticing that Robin had slid off.

"Okay, kids! It's time for games!" Mrs. Keene voice called out, and and his friends rushed out of the room, closing the door behind them.
