Prologue

Author's Note: I love Melee. Who wouldn't love a fast-paced game with plenty of fighting? But ever since Brawl came out in 2008, I felt like I abandoned. I always played Brawl for how good of a game I thought it was. But after attending a Melee tournament recently, I just realized how much I missed playing it. So, I later made a trip down memory lane and played through Adventure Mode. I then got an idea for a story. Man, I feel like a jerk for not updating. I've been so busy with my school work. Please forgive me. I hope you enjoy this.

In the grassy planes of the Mushroom Kingdom, the hero, Mario, ran through the fields to the princess's castle.
"Wahoo! I can't a-wait to get to the castle! The princess is a-gonna make me a big cake with a-plenty of spaghetti!" the plumber said to himself. He jumped over plenty of pits and pipes, he broke many blocks, and he collected quite the amount of coins. Mario was really happy to have a day just to relax and spend time with his friends. He thought he would have a day with no worries, but he was soon wrong. When he continued running, he hit an invisible wall, which stopped him entirely. He hit the floor and looked up at it. "What the...huh?"
The plumber stood back up and scratched his head. He never saw anything like this before. When he touched it, it felt like glass, but it gave off a very liquid effect. Mario had never been so confused in his life. After knocking on the wall a few times, something unexpected happened: the wall illuminated a very strong golden light. Before Mario could react, the light swallowed only him, leaving no trace of the plumber behind.

In an abandoned coliseum, a voice was heard.
"Yes... It seems as though I may have found the right challenger for me... but I will test them all to see who will prevail. Then I will destroy the one who is the best. These worlds will be mine without their rightful heroes," said the entity. He looked at his group of prizes: a large set of trophies of many famous characters. The being laughed to himself. "It's time to fight, my Super Smash Brothers."
He reached out and grabbed one of the trophies. He looked at it carefully and threw it in the air with force, causing it to disappear in the sky. He then looked at the rest of the trophies. One after another, each trophy flew into the skies and disappeared. There was still one left. The entity looked at this trophy carefully and interestingly. He was holding the world's famous plumber.
"I hope you will make a worthy opponent, Mr. Mario," he said before throwing the plumber's trophy into the air, making it disappear afterwards. The figure looked around and stared down at his own hands. He wore white gloves, very different to his own natural blue color.
"So, my pets, it's time to go show the world the power of Master Hand and Crazy Hand," he told them. The two gloves then dispatched from the entity's hand and disappeared into the sky. The figure then opened his wings and spread his arms out. "I, Tabuu, will soon take over this world, but in due time. No one must know of me; no one must discover my plans. Not even that plumber, Mario. I will destroy him and everyone in this world. I will rule... the world of trophies... Melee."

Back at the Mushroom Kingdom, everything looked unchanged from before. In a blink of an eye, Mario's trophy appeared on the grassy plains. His right fist was pointing skyward in the air, while his left fist stayed at his waist. He had a look of determination on his face, sticking a great trophy.
Suddenly, a wave of electric energy surged around the trophy. It swirled around Mario's body entirely, making him animate once again. He looked different than before, looking a bit taller, thinner, and more realistic-looking. He then shook his head around and looked at himself.
"Huh? Oh... That was weird. Did I get a-taller? I don't even remember. I must've blanked out or something. One moment I'm-a in the Mushroom Kingdom, then I get sucked in by a wall, and now I'm in the Mushroom Kingdom again! I'm-a so confused..." Mario said to himself. While his home-world looked the same as before, Mario noticed something different on his right forearm. "What's-a this? Stock Count...3? Damage... 0%?"
Mario was confused of this. He had never seen anything like this on him before. He looked around in confusion.
"I look different. I feel different. This place a-looks like the Mushroom Kingdom, but it just doesn't seem like it. I don't think I'm-a in the Mushroom Kingdom anymore. What... What is this place...?"

Authors Note: Just so you know, I suck at Italian accents, haha! If you think I do, just tell me. I'll get rid of it. I'm sorry for the length of this prologue. I just want this chapter story to be not as long as my UMVC3 story. As for the villain, I know Tabuu only appears in Brawl. I just wanted him to be a villain behind the scenes. There will be other villains that show up more times than him. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this little prologue. It's not much, but there will be more in the future. Be sure to rate and review. I'll see you guys later!
