Since there hasn't been anyone messaging me an idea for the next chapter, I guess I'll go for this one, hope you enjoy this 2nd chapter. :)

"History"

Midair Stadium, World of Trophies

November 1st, 16:28:39

Keegan P. Russ

It was an eight fighter ten stock match in the Midair Stadium, it is the Ice Climbers, Snake, Dr. Mario, PaRappa, DK, Big Daddy, Duck Hunt & Nariko. Me, the Ghosts, Soap, Price, Martin & our Star Wars friends were cheering for different fighters, me & Logan were sitting

together as usual, holding hands & both of us cheering for the same person, Dr. Mario.

Coincidentally, Dr. Mario won the fray thanks to his Final Smash: Doctor Finale...

"OH HELL YEAH DR. MARIO!" Logan was completely energetic the way he cheered for the doc's victory.

"Man, he sure is stronger than Mario..." Kick seem to be impress of how Mario & the others were telling the fact Dr. Mario is quite stonger than Mario.

As we exited this floating stadium & returned to the resort, Mario & Ness came by. "Hey guys, you saw how tough the doc was?" Ness with a smile asked us, "Man that fighter is goddamn stronger than I expected." Hesh exclaimed of how Dr. Mario was.

"I told ya, he's tad slow but stronger than me." Mario nodded when Dr. Mario & Master Hand appeared.

"So... How's your everyone, didn't expect Dr. Mario to win was it?" Master Hand asked us when Dr. Mario chuckled a bit by the question.

"Well, clones can be stronger, speedier, heavier, lighter or weaker than their originals." Dr. Mario commented about himself & some

others who are clones like him like Lucina, Pichu & Dark Pit.

"Master Hand, this tournament seem to be somehow entertaining to everyone, seemed to aged well, how did this all started?" 3PO asked the hand about the world & tournament's history. I was also going to ask that same question, but that gold robot somehow beat me to it.

Master Hand tells us the story of how this world was created, the island was only filled with jungles, lakes, a desert, mountains, a ruins, abandoned places & etc. Then, he along with Crazy Hand decided to bring in twelve worthy fighters & heroes, in which they chose Mario, Donkey Kong, Link, Samus, Yoshi, Kirby, Fox, Pikachu, Luigi, Captain Falcon, Ness & Jigglypuff.

"As years go by, we hosted tournaments every 4 years, which were joined by more of the chosen..." Master Hand continued to explain.

Master Hand pointed at the x-shaped light shining at the cliff over the sea nearby.

"Not all were intact to this day..."

"What happened?" Hesh wondered what Master Hand was talking about.

"There was a certain incident during the Super Smash Bros. Tournament 3. Actually... an invasion..." Master Hand answered

"The Subspace Emissary. We were invaded by the Subspace Army, Subspace is a dark realm, like a dark & corrupted version of the

World of Trophies..." Mario explained to us what they were talking about.

"The leader & ruler of the Subspace is Tabuu... He tried to take over this world, he even used Master Hand as his puppet to hire Bowser, Ganondorf, Wario & King Dedede to take down everyone of us since we're threats to his plans..." Dr. Mario continued. "But we worked together to prevent the invasion & took down Tabuu..." Ness followed & finished the explanation.

They told us this was once the floating Island of the Ancients. R.O.B. also once had his own kind, being the leader known as the Ancient Minister. But thanks to that motherfucker Tabuu, R.O.B. is, until this day, the last of his kind & the Island of the Ancients was destroyed because of the hundred Subspace Bombs that detonated in the island.

We then went to a nearby restaurant where we had dinner. This world is something I never seen before & somehow, I've somehow got used to becoming a people person. Thanks to Logan, I just came out of my shell for now.

"The Dance"

Blue Tower, World of Trophies

December 25th, 11:39:44

Logan Walker

It's Christmas Day, we haven't really celebrated Christmas since then thanks to the ODIN strike. When it's Christmas, we only just greeted each other a Merry Christmas & just a normal dinner but not without doing a short prayer to bless. We never really got presents during the war, the last time we had presents is of course a year before the Federation hijacked ODIN & destroyed our old life.

Because we are off duty for now, we were able to celebrate Christmas Eve yesterday like how we did before the war.

Today, there's a party or a ball or whatever it is. Peach told us it is held everytime it's Christmas, which seems quite obvious. We were looking for someone to go with since there's a dance, obviously Mario has Peach, Luigi has Daisy, Ness has Paula, who also came here along with some of Ness's friends & family. Link already got Zelda with him, the Ice Climbers would be able to dance with each other since they're a couple or something, there's also Anakin & Padme as well as Leia & Han. I ain't sure if dancing with Keegan is a good idea when in public, we don't really want to disgust them. Hesh is still looking for someone to go with.

"Come on Logan, you've been with him for so long already, I thought you aren't scared of doing it, we all know already about your love story."

"But this is different Hesh, I mean look at them, we never knew much about them & we are in a public party for godsake."

Hesh suddenly stopped & looked at me straight in the eye, we stared at each other, he placed both his arms on my shoulder, holding me.

"Do you love Keegan?"

"More than anything bro, I...love him..."

"Then don't shit yourself, don't mind how people think about you two, fuck them anyway who the hell cares if they're disgusted or whatever, don't let them get in your way." Hesh gave a reashuring smile at me & I slightly smiled & we both hugged each other like how brothers would do.

As we stopped hugging we continued to walk looking for someone for Hesh to go with, "Who would you go with Hesh?"

"Don't know..."

"Maybe Fat Princess" I laughed a bit

"Hey not funny alright, plus she's already going with Sackboy."

"Well, we'll find one for you anyway..."

21:10:12

We all got dresses up for the party, seeing each other in tuxedo, however, others like Luke & Anakin, they were dressed differently. Seeing Keegan in a tuxedo, man he looks fucking handsome in a tux, even his eyes made him look hell good. Hesh still wasn't able to find one, but he claimed to me that he found someone to go with, but I don't see her.

We all went down except for Hesh, since he'a going to pick her up.

In the elevator going down, I felt nervous, everyone will see me & Keegan together, what will they think? I tried my best to hide the feeling, but Keegan is really like psychic or something, he somehow sees it in my eyes.

"Hey, you ok kid?"

"I am fine Keegan..."

"You don't look fine to me, you look like you've had a hard time in the toilet or something."

"Keegie, how will you feel if they see us together in love, they don't know us much or something, it's something different from how we were trying to tell the others..." Keegan suddenly holded my hand, my face starting blush red.

"Do you think it will stop us?"

"No..."

"Then there's nothing to worry about" I smiled in response to what he said, he really never cares about the reaction of everyone else, "You look handsome Keegie."

"You too Logan, nothing will break us apart, not even fucking sharks, Fed soldiers & Rorke will do that."

We had a short kiss when we already arrived at the ground floor.

As we go inside the Grand Hall, everything looked shiny thanks to the dim lights & guests including the fighters interacting with each other.

Then, Hesh came & he is holding hands with someone.

"Holy shit..." Keegan looked surprised, which I also was as well. David "Hesh" Walker is going to dance with Samus Aran, the famous space bounty hunter. She looks like she's wearing a blue dress gown

"I remember Boba Fett was idolizing her one time..." Han remarked about Samus.

As Hesh & Samus follow, he looked gleeful.

"Surprise?"

"Actually, yeah... You going to Samus on the dance, freakin cool."

Hesh & Samus laughed a bit

"Look, we are just here to dance, but we're just friends, after all, you're all friends with Mario & the others." Samus greeted before all went to the dance floor.

There a few couples like Mario & Peach, Luigi & Daisy, Link & Zelda, the Ice Climbers Popo & Nana & etc. Me & Keegan along with Hesh, Samus, Anakin, Padme, Leia & Han stand still for sometime, trying to calm ourselves down from the nervousness while the rest went to a table to eat while they watch us.

I felt nervous the most, but Keegan holded my hand, soothing me a bit & we looked at each other.

"Your ready kid?" his eyes shining sky blue at me. I nodded in response, giving a yes to him. We all then walked to the dance floor as the next song "Calling to the Night" is sang by a beautiful slim singer in the stage. The dim lights & the dramatic song that she's singing seems to add the tone or something. We danced in a normal pace.

I was locked on Keegan's face as we dance around the dance floor along with the other couples, nervousness never came over to me again.

"Keegie, are they looking at us?"

"Maybe"

It lasted for two minutes the dance & as the song ends, me & Keegan slowly came closer until our lips connect. We kiss slowly & sync with each other. We broke off the kiss & we both rested on each others' foreheads, breathing heavily...

"Oh god...I love you Keegie..." my voice was raspy

"I love you too Logan..." Keegan's voice was also raspy

I saw a glimpse of Mario & Peach looking at us, smiling, I never thought everyone are getting used to how we are. Just then, as we go to our table with Hesh & Samus, we bumped into a little boy.

"Whoops, you okay kid?" I asked him, he looked nervous, but he spoke.

"I'm lost..."

"Ok, what's your name?"

"Jacks"

"Ok Jacks, we'll find your parents alright..." I reassure him to find them, which he nodded.

While the others went to eat, I went with Jacks to find his parents, however, he said that he only has his mom...

"Really, you only had a mom? Man, well for me, I only had a dad... I envy you." I tried to lighten him up & he did, he made a small laugh. It took us some time to her until finally, we found his mom along with someone at another table just near the stage. "Hey is that your mom?" I asked him, he nodded, implying a yeah. "Who's that with her?" he said he lost his dad back then, but I was confused who's that person with her. "That's my uncle, he can be pretty...well um yeah."

We approached them & they saw us, relieved to see their kid again.

"Jacks, thank goodness you're alright. Thanks for bringing him back."

"Yeah sure."

"What's your name?"

"Name's Logan"

Just then, her brother, who was looking in his smartphone spoke to me.

"Logan Walker. Universe: Call of Duty. Working for the U.S. Army with your retired father Elias & older brother Hesh. Currently on duty in Task Force: STALKER, also known as the Ghosts. Wow, you sure are good..."

I was surprised, how did look into my profile, however, I was pretty sure he came from a different universe, which helped shook the feeling off.

"Sorry, my brother is a hacker actually, anyway thanks nice to meet you Logan." Jacks's mom apologized about it.

"Anytime, glad to have met you three."

As I went back to the others, I felt uneasy, that guy just spoke about where I came from, the Ghosts, even my family. Who is he? I know he's a hacker, but hopefully, it isn't a spy from the Federation. However, I shook the feeling off once again, I didn't want to tell the others about, they'll go crazy or something like a Fed just tried to infiltrate our safehouse. How the hell did he just hacked into my profile? Well, I'll just let that go for now... I forget about what happened as I sat with the others including Mario, Peach, Luigi, Daisy, Ness & Paula...

That's all for this chapter. From that part, someone's coming in the adventure, but who could that be, sure he's some typical hacker, bur I wonder what universe does he come from, well, guess I'll leave you up with answer in guessing who's the mysterious character joining in the adventure. Please give a review please about this story, it's very much appreciated, also please PM me or reciew to me for ideas on the next chapter. :)
