Lightspace Emissary, Part 1: Evil Returns
A World of Light/Subspace Emissary fanfiction
I can't say I own Subspace Emissary, World of Light, the Smash Brothers franchise or any of the representative characters.
Following his defeat, Lord Galeem was reborn from the huge energy wave that followed his first body being destroyed, as a tiny spark of light, no bigger than a distant star. He escaped and found himself in a strange world where black, blue and red ground pulsated softly, and the sky was a shining blue and black mass. Subspace. He found a blue human-like creature, shrouded in impressive wings. Tabuu, the Lord of Subspace. He'd been restoring his body to attack the Smash Realm once again. In their ancient language, they agreed to team up: Tabuu would give Galeem power and Master Hands again, Galeem would capture everyone in the Subspace. The two evils set their plan into action, Tabuu transferring some of his energies into the tiny spark that remained of Galeem…
The Smash team were at the stadium from the start of Subspace Emissary, celebrating their success against the evil Lords Galeem and Dharkon. It was a full-blown party, with music, dancing, food, you name it.
"Great-a turnout, isn't it, Luigi!" Mario laughed to his green-clad brother.
"Yeah! I'm-a super glad that you got-a everyone together today, Mario!" Luigi replied, smiling.
There was a dance floor where plenty of the Fighters were hanging around and Ryu took a chance, went to the centre of the dance floor and started being awesome as usual, everyone clapping and chanting "Go, Ryu!" in time with the music.
It was all happy and fun, when suddenly, an all-familiar (To the Brawl Team) rumbling noise began. Everything quietened dramatically, as everyone looked at the sky. It was turning a deep crimson, with mauve clouds.
"No, is it possible…?" Zero Suit Samus whispered.
"Uh, M-M-Mario? Is it really possible that he-a came back?" Luigi stuttered.
The Fighters from Sm4sh and up were confused and frightened by the sight, and either stood in shock or panicked.
"What's going on? I've never encountered anything like this, please explain!" Mewtwo shouted, concerned, over the howling winds that began.
Meta Knight turned to Mewtwo and muttered four words that struck fear into the Brawl Fighter's hearts: "Subspace. Tabuu has returned."
And just as the Portal Bombs were thrown towards the Fighters, tonnes of Master Hands began floating around the place. They noticed something that they'd never expected to see: Lord Galeem, but with wings that were reminiscent in shape and colours of Tabuu's own.
Shulk immediately foresaw something:
A void where everyone was turned into trophies, and their souls were pulled from them, and crushed by the hands of an ancient human-like being while Galeem engulfed the remaining survivors in light…
"Everyone, run!" he shouted. The Portal Bomb exploded, creating a dark black-purple shadow that somehow shone, and consumed most characters. Kirby immediately responded by summoning the Warp Star, grabbing as many of the smaller Fighters (Pichu, Pikachu, Jigglypuff, Olimar, Mega Man, Lucas and Villager) as he could, extending the Star, throwing himself and them on and Warping from the universe, as everything and everyone was thrown into the Lightspace.
A while later, they landed in ruined soil, just like in World of Light, but together, each of them dizzy and confused. After Kirby stood up, he helped Pichu to his feet and made sure the other survivors were OK. They looked over the new world, wondering what was to come of them in the new adventure…
That's it for this part of Lightspace Emissary! In the next episode, they begin a journey to rescue Yoshi, Sonic, the two Samus and Duck Hunt Duo. Hope you enjoyed, and I'll see you in the next one! ¦°
