Chapter 1: Prologue

Whoohoo! At last my secret project and new fiction has come to fruition! Alright I've got a lot to say here so just hang tight for a minute. First off, this is basically a super improved version of my first ever story, "A Boy and His Bird", thus why these two characters may seem familiar to some of you. And I know what most of you are thinking "oh look, another OC story…" Well that is kinda true, but I'm planning on doing the best I can to make the story not focus completely on the OC(s), so this is just an informative backstory chapter so you get where Jay is coming from. And by the way, my Jay has no relation whatsoever to the Jay in Not-Alone-Anymore's "Smash School". For one thing, that Jay is a girl and my Jay was technically around earlier. But I just wanted to clear that up so there won't be any confusion. Okay, I think I've rambled on enough for now, so enjoy "On A Wing and A Smasher" everyone!

"Ah, morning already?" a teenage boy said as he sat up from his bed.

Climbing out from the covers, he stood up and stretched. His name is Jay Redwood, a seemingly normal 16 year-old teen. Jay is around 6 feet tall, with dark blonde hair that falls over his ears and almost reaches his greenish-blue eyes. With a rather light build he looks weaker then he really is, although he isn't all that strong in the first place. Jay is a single child, with only his father to care for him, since his mother died the day he was born. Jay's father is a well known genetic scientist, and that is where the normalcy of the teenager starts to disappear.

Flashback

Prof. Redwood has been working on numerous genetic experiments all across the world, and even has a secret lab in the one-story house's basement. Around a year ago, he was testing out a new type of plant seed that contained all nutrients and minerals from many different species, combining them all into one hybrid that would grow in any environment and would replace having to farm separate crops. How he would accomplish this was by a strange machine he called a DNA Fusion Chamber, or DNAFC which kind of looked like a glass port-a-potty with steel framing and tubes connecting the contraption to other glass boxes holding the subjects waited to be fused.

Well, that same last year Jay went down to the lab one day to ask his father something. Seeing that nobody was around, he figured he'd take a look at the stuff lying about, even though he wasn't supposed to. When he discovered the DNAFC, he opened the door on it and went inside out of curiosity. Unfortunately, the scientists were just about to create the perfect seed before they took a break, and Jay accidently activated the system as he walked into the chamber. By the time he realized what happened, it was too late. Prof. Redwood and his colleges quickly rushed onto the scene, only to find the fusion had taken place, with Jay in the core. While the teenager seemed okay at first, some of the plants for experiments in the lab started growing out of control, and it seemed to happen whenever Jay raised his hand towards them. Jay's father was astounded by this transformation, and did a quick study on the state of his son's DNA. It appeared that all the separate species converged into one, and then fused with Jay's own DNA. After more tests, it was confirmed that the teenager could control all vegetation. And while some scientists suggested reversing the process in order to return Jay to normal, it was decided that it was too risky, for the DNA could become scrambled during the extraction, and possibly kill him. And thus he has remained as such to this day.

End of Flashback

Putting on a dark green T-shirt with a palm tree on the front and a pair a forest green kaki shorts, Jay let out a long yawn and walked toward a small cage. In this cage was a 6 inch long parrot, with a green body, a black head and beak, red tail, white rings around the its dark brown eyes, blue under wings, and a grey chest. "Hey Brazil!" the teenager greeted happily. The bird responded with an excited chirp as his master let him out of the cage and onto his shoulder. Like Jay, Brazil would seem to everyone as just a normal parrot, but even he has a bizarre secret.

Flashback

Jay got Brazil from a pet store 3 years ago as a companion, since where he lived was in cornfields in the middle of nowhere and his school was at home, with his teachers being the scientists. Since he didn't have a mother and his father would be away months at a time, Brazil had become like a feathered sibling to the teen. But, a month after Jay's encounter with the DNAFC, when the original experiment had long been dropped, one of Prof. Redwood's colleges was working on fusing octopus DNA with that of humans, thus enabling those with lost limbs to grow new ones. But first he needed a guinea pig, and unscrupulously took Brazil when Jay wasn't looking and fused him with the octopus's DNA. Jay didn't find out about it until a week later, when the family's now deceased cat caught Brazil and bit an entire wing off. Before the teen could do anything, the parrot immediately grew the lost appendage back. Confused about this, he asked his father about it, who quickly knew who was responsible for the phenomenon. When the scientist confessed that he took the parrot, he was fired for not checking with everyone before going ahead with the experiment. A day later, Brazil spontaneously grew till he stood 20 feet tall when threatened by the cat again, and then shrunk back to normal size within a few minutes after the feline ran away. Upon closer inspection, it was revealed that Brazil also somehow had a special growth hormone, and could trigger this temporary giant form when aggressive or under stress. The growth hormone was actually meant for a completely unrelated experiment, but got mixed up by the unscrupulous scientist during the fusion.

End of Flashback

And so, that is how these two unassuming beings came to be anything but normal, but Jay didn't mind. In fact, he likes the new powers that had inadvertently been given to him. But he doesn't use it too much, for he is rather modest, and likes to do things the normal way.

"Alright buddy, let's go see if we got any mail today." Jay said to his feathered friend. The two were going to be alone for the next few months, but the teen had learned how to take care of himself at a young age, and so he could these situations. Walking up to the simple white mailbox, Jay found only a single letter with a strange circle with two lines going threw it stamped on one corner. "I wonder who this is from?" he asked himself.

Opening the letter, Jay read it over while Brazil craned his neck for a better view.

'Dear inhabitant, you are invited to join a tournament at the famous Smash Mansion to compete with other competitors throughout space and time! Should you accept, a portal shall appear for you to gain entry to the mansion. Press yes or no below to decide.'

Sincerely, Master Hand.

Glancing down at the letter, Jay saw two golden words, "yes", and "no". This would be the first outing the teen would have, since up to now his whole life has been spent around the home. He looked at Brazil, who stared right back with a rather excited look in his eyes. "Well buddy, do you think we should do this?" The bird replied by bouncing up and down happily. "Haha, okay then." Jay then pressed the "yes", and immediately a portal opened up right in front of them, revealing a large red brick mansion in the distance. "Alright, here we go!" Jay shouted. And with that, they jumped threw, starting a grand adventure.

I apologize if the first chapter may seem kinda boring, but don't worry, now that all the technical stuff is out of the way I can get to the actual Smash Bros. part. And there is going to be some continuity and/or collaboration from my other fictions in this, so keep an eye out for them! Until chapter 2 everybody!
