The new Smash Brothers Tournament has begun. The heroes are in different realms of Nintendo, and one has woken up to begin his journey.
Captain Falcon awoke in Animal City, near the beach area, where he was found by a strange dog.
"Oh…what happened to me?" Captain Falcon asked.
"You fell down in the ocean and hit your head, your lucky that I found you," K.K. said.
"Who the heck are you?" Captain Falcon asked.
"The name's Totokeke Slider, I'm a famous musician round these parts," K.K. said.
"So…what's this world called?" Captain Falcon asked.
"Your in Animal City, this place is a quiet little village, separate from the evil of the other worlds, where many folk can live in peace, we did however, sign up to have a stage called 'Smashville' in the Smash Tournament, therefore, this city, is currently known as 'Smashville' rather than Animal City," K.K. explained.
"Interesting, so did anyone else land here?" Captain Falcon asked.
"Like I said, the village is pretty small, but I haven't seen anyone else from this years tournament wanderin about here," K.K. said.
"Oh…say, since I'm not being threatened by any other fighters at the moment, you got any food round here, or at least an item shop or something?" Captain Falcon asked.
"No that you've asked, we do have an item shop in town, called Nook's Cranny, it's not very big and doesn't deal in high quality items like Smash City does, but we've got enough to make a livin here in Smashville," K.K explained.
"Alright, I'll go to see what they got!" Captain Falcon.
Meanwhile, in a strange parallel dimension, a huge mechanical ship-like object floated in the dark empty sky.
"So we were all called here for what purpose?" Bowser asked.
"The sole purpose, of serving me," The figure said.
"So what do we need to do exactly?" Mewtwo asked.
"Simply eliminate as many fighters as each of you can, try not to lose, and most importantly, one of you needs to wind up as the victor for the tournament as a whole," The figure said.
"Well I don't feel like serving someone that is unknown, will you reveal your true face?" Ganondorf asked.
"I think that sounds fair enough," The figure chuckled, unveiling himself to be a completely blue, cybernetic looking figure.
"And your name?" Wolf asked.
"You may call me…Tabuu," Tabuu laughed evilly as the other villains did as well, "Now go, all of you, serve me well."
Meanwhile, down in the worlds, Dr. Mario awoke in Yoshi's Island.
"An island full of Yoshi's eh? Guess the one I'm looking for probably isn't here," Dr. Mario said, just as he spotted a green Yoshi, "Hmmm…never mind, my luck may have just changed."
Dr. Mario walked over to the green Yoshi and coin punched.
"What was that for?" The Yoshi cried.
"Don't act like you don't know Yoshi, we're in a tournament," Dr. Mario said.
"What are you talking about, I'm in no such thing," theYoshi said.
"Don't lie to me!" Dr. Mario said as he shot a pill at the Yoshi's feet.
"Why are you trying to hurt me? What did I EVER do to you?" the Yoshi asked.
"Fight back!" Dr. Mario said.
"Stop breaking the rules!" A voice from behind Dr. Mario said.
"Whose there?" Dr. Mario asked, as Ganondorf appeared in a dark flame behind the good doctor.
"Attacking civilians is strictly off limits, Tabuu wouldn't like this very much," Ganondorf said.
"I can still fight you!" Dr. Mario said, as two pills rolled down his arms out of the top of his lab coat, and landed in his hands.
"I accept your challenge, but just so you know, you don't know what you are getting yourself into," Ganondorf said, as he held his arm out to the side and a purple reddish flame formed and a sword appeared in Ganondorfs hand.
First Match: Ganondorf vs. Dr. Mario…GO!
"Make your first move Doctor, because trust me, it WILL be your last," Ganondorf smirked.
"You're right, it will be enough to finish you in one move!" Dr. Mario said, as he tossed the two pills at Ganondorf, Ganondorf yawned and let the two pills hit him.
"You're gonna have to do WAY better than that, kiddo," Ganondorf laughed.
"Don't underestimate me!" Dr. Mario said as he punched Ganondorf, who blocked, still keeping the sword by his side in his left arm, Dr. Mario spun around quickly, and tried to back hand punch Ganondorf, but he blocked again. Dr. Mario continued to do punch and kick combos, but after being blocked so many times, he eventually wore himself out.
"What was that you were muttering about one move earlier?" Ganondorf said, laughing.
"One move or a thousand moves, it doesn't matter, I will defeat you!" Dr. Mario growled.
"You really are one stubborn little pest aren't you? Oh well, guess this fight has gone on long enough, seems about time that I ended it, come at me fool!" Ganondorf yelled, as Dr. Mario charged him, his fist readied in the air, but before he could punch Ganondorf, Ganondorf picked Dr. Mario up by his head, and a purple aura formed around his hand as he lifted the doctor higher off of the ground, "Game…Over!" Ganondorf laughed as the aura engulfed Dr. Mario's body causing him to disappear.
Match Over! Winner: Ganondorf!
Ganondorf laughed as he disappeared into the flamy portal he entered Yoshi's island through and returned home.
Soon, every players watches dropped to thirty-nine.
"Crap! Someone got taken out already?" Pit said, "I'd better stay on my toes."
"So, the fights have already begun, but I thought that guy said we'd all be transported to different worlds so we would have time to stock up on items?" Link said, "Something is up." Link said as he continued walking through a vast forest.
At the end of the forest that Link was walking through, was a small moonlit clearing, and though Link hadn't reached it yet, a group of ten Assist Trophies had formed as a resistance against what their role was in the tournament. Kat and Ana, Saki, Lyn, Isaac, Dr. Wright, Little Mac, Nintendog, Jeff, and Excite Biker were all in this group.
"Y'know, sticking together just gives them a better opportunity to capture us all at once," Jeff whined.
"But they have to beat us first, that's why we have this group!" Little Mac explained.
"Guess you're right…, but still, I feel a tad disheartened about this job we've been given," Jeff said.
"Yet another reason for this group Jeff, don't worry, I'll make sure that we are all freed from this job we've been given," Saki smirked, Saki was the leader of the Assist Trophy resistance.
"Bark Bark!" the Nintendog said.
"What is it boy? You smell something?" Isaac asked as he looked into the forest.
"Something goin on Isaac?" Dr. Wright asked.
"Y…yeah…someone, is coming!" Isaac said.
"Prepare for battle everyone," Saki ordered.
"What's in here anyway?" Link asked, as he entered the clearing.
"It's one of them! Get him!" Saki yelled, as the others jumped up to attack Link.
"WOH! Hey, who are you guys?" Link asked.
"We're the assist trophy resistance!" Kat said.
"And we're gonna take down any fighters who come after us!" Ana said.
"Wait…you mean, that you guys didn't agree to this?" Link asked.
"Course not…you think we'd agree to be a part of some…trivial game that the organizers set up, no way! We'd rather compete!" Saki said.
"So that's why we vowed to take down any players who we saw, then they couldn't use us in battle anymore," Excite Biker said.
"Then let me help you out, I'm sure I could do something," Link said, with a warm smile.
"Can we trust him sir?" Lyn asked Saki.
"Tch…we don't know for sure yet, but we'll go with him, just so we can keep an eye on him," Saki said.
"Sounds good to me, who knows, in time warrior, we may trust you," Little Mac said.
"The name is Link! Nice to meet you all," He said kindly.
Meanwhile, on a hill fairly close to the woods, a scout for the group, Ray MK III, was on the lookout.
"Seems my surveillances are done for the day, might as well just return to the others," Ray MK III said.
"You're not goin anywhere, I want as many of you little buggers as I can nab!" Wolf said, as he came out of the shadows.
"I hope you know you have to fight me first, and that's not going to be easy!" Ray MK III said, as he aimed his gun at Wolf.
"Please, don't be foolish, I have already successfully captured to others of your kind, plus with my electro disabler gun, this battle should end in a matter of seconds," Wolf grinned.
"No…NO!…NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Ray MK III screamed, as a flock of birds were shown flying out of the trees of the forest into the moonlit sky.
"That sounded like Ray!" Isaac said.
"You don't think…someone got him do you?" Lyn asked.
"Only one way to find out, lets go see!" Saki said, as the resistance movement ran out, with Link following close behind.
On the forest path's entrance, another young boy with an assist trophy accompanying him stood.
"Lets move infantry, we've gotta get to that resistance movement that the robot we just saw told us about," Andy said.
"Yes Andy sir!" the infantry saluted, as some tanks followed behind as well.
"Walking out in the open with an army that big is not a very bright idea," a voice said, as a tall figure, perched atop a boulder, jumped down, to block Andy's path, "Now…step aside, or we can do this the hard way," Wolf grinned, as Andy took out his wrench.
"I…I don't know who you are, but…there's no way you're taking my army away from me!" Andy said as he ran at Wolf with the wrench.
"Foolish boy, the hard way is much quicker than the easy way," Wolf laughed, as slashed Andy with his claws, and captured the Infantry and Tanks in a capsule, before flying off, just as he did, the group emerged from the forest.
"Whose that kid?" Link asked.
"That's Andy, he was signed in as the leader of battalion of infantry and tanks that were supposed to be an assist trophy, but…where is the army?" Saki asked.
"He…got them…," Andy said weakly.
"He's alive…that's a relief," Jeff said.
"But what is he talking about?" Lyn asked.
"A weird wolf-man came…and swiped them away…," Andy coughed.
"A wolf man? Now why does that sound familiar?" Link pondered.
"Could he possibly be one of the competitors in your 'game'?" Saki asked, pounding the ground.
"That's right, he's Fox's rival! Wolf O'Donnell!" Link said.
"It's all a game to those organizers, ISN'T IT?" Saki growled, "They'll pay for forcing us to work as mindless slaves to the tournaments competitors!" Saki said, as tears streamed down his face.
"So…where are we off to Saki?" Jeff asked.
"Smash City," Saki said, "It's the closest city to this forest, and maybe Link here can stock up on some items for us."
"So you do trust me?" Link asked.
"For now," Saki said, as he began to walk away, while the others, and Link, followed.
"This stinks, why did I end up here?" Young Link said as he folded his arms and sat on a stump.
"The middle of nowhere, yet…we both ended up here," A voice said from behind Young Link.
"Whose there?" Young Link asked, drawing his blade and quickly turning around.
"Remember me Young Link? From the last smash tournament?" Mewtwo asked.
"Mewtwo? But didn't the tournament organizers clearly state that we'd all be transported to different locations?" Young Link asked.
"Obviously they stretched the truth a bit on that one, now…since we're both here…," Mewtwo said.
"You wanna fight me…don't you?" Young Link asked, readying his sword.
"Now…whatever gave you that idea?" Mewtwo snickered, "But now that you mention it, maybe a small fight would do me some good," Mewtwo said.
"You'd be wise NOT to underestimate me! Because when I defeat you, I'll have taken out one of the strongest competitors that this tournament has to offer," Young Link grinned.
"You're quite confident, I like that kid, unfortunately, you're run in this tournament will be ending shortly," Mewtwo said.
"If you wanna fight me so bad…then lets just get started already!" Young Link smirked.
"As you wish!" Mewtwo said.
Second Match: Young Link vs. Mewtwo…GO!
"Lets make this a good one!" Mewtwo smirked as two shadow balls appeared hovering above his hands.
"I can assure you…that it will be!" Young Link said as he charged at Mewtwo. Young Link slashed at Mewtwo, who easily dodged.
"Please tell me that's not your best," Mewtwo laughed.
"You've yet to see it!" Young Link shouted, as he lunged at Mewtwo once again, continually stabbing at him.
"Keep trying boy…it will get you nowhere!" Mewtwo said as he kicked Young Link in the face, sending him flying in the air.
"Underestimating me again eh? You make me so mad!" Young Link shouted as he readied his fire arrow.
"What the…?" Mewtwo said, shocked as Young Link launched the arrow at Mewtwo, it set a tree behind Mewtwo on fire, and the flames engulfed the area that Mewtwo was standing in.
"Game, set, and match," Young Link said as he swiped his hands together, "Huh?" he said, as a shadow ball flew out of the flames and sent him flying into the ocean behind him, just as the sun set in that world.
Match Over, Winner: Mewtwo!
"Good move kid…," Mewtwo laughed, as he looked at his watch change to thirty-eight.
The other competitors soon noticed their watches changing numbers, "Another one down already, things are starting to heat up fairly quickly," Samus said.
"How is this even possible? The rules should prevent this from happening," Ness said, as he finally entered Smash City, "This place is huge!"
"Ahhh…welcome to Smash City, please enjoy your stay here sir Ness," A random R.O.B bot said.
"You look like R.O.B, but I guess you aren't him," Ness chuckled, "Now…I need to find me an item stand.
At the same time as Ness, Lucas was also entering Smash City, through the Eastern Gate of the town.
"Man…this place…is insanely big! I'm bound to find some other competitors here somewhere," Lucas said to himself.
Lucas and Ness both walked to separate item stands to purchase for the Tournament.
"WOW! What is that thing?" Ness asked the Shy Guy clerk.
"That my friend is a powerful new item added to competition, known as, the Smash Ball," The Shy Guy said.
"That's awesome! I'll take it!" Ness said, slamming down the smash coins he was given.
"Sir…with that money, you'll be able to get a Mister Saturn at best," The Shy Guy explained.
"That's all? Are you serious?" Ness asked, "How much is the smash ball?"
"A lot more than ya got kid, sorry," The Shy Guy replied.
"Aw man…lemme get a Mr. Saturn then," Ness said sadly.
"A'course, no problem kiddo," The Shy Guy nodded, and traded the Mr. Saturn for all of Ness's smash coins.
Meanwhile, over at Lucas's side of the town, "So…this is it then?" Lucas asked.
"Yeeah, that Party Ball contains a random item, though it could very well be anything! Even a Smash Ball," The Shy Guy said.
"Oh really, sounds good to me, guess I'll be seeing you around sir," Lucas said.
Sonic stood on a hill on the outskirts of Smash City, looking onward, "I could probably find a few competitors down there, it looks pretty promising to me," Sonic said as he ran down to the city.
Lucario stood atop Icicle Mountain, on one leg, meditating, to keep his focus on the tournament.
Many other fighters were just waking up, to find where they had been sent, and the villainous contestants were hunting the unsuspecting prey that lie before them, it would only be a matter of time before the thirty-eight contestants who were left would have to fight for their lives.
Back in Smashville, Captain Falcon finally found Nook's Cranny.
"You! you're the shopkeeper 'round these parts right?" Captain Falcon asked.
"Oh why yes sir, everything we sell is at quite a steal, if I do say so myself, and we have a bit of a Smash Tournament sale going on in the store currently," Tom Nook explained.
"So…what exactly have you got around here?" Captain Falcon asked.
"Well…you see, this store is rather small, unfortunately, which means, we do not have much room for stock, so, I'm afraid we cannot barter in to much goods, we simply have food, smoke bombs, and pitfalls, take your pick," Tom Nook said, gesturing to a table with a pile of food, a pile of smoke bombs, and a pile of pitfall seeds, the prices were each labeled 5C underneath each pile.
"I've got at least an added total of fifty coins, so I'll take a few of each thing, just till I'm outta money," Captain Falcon said.
"Oh good sir, this is excellent news, just grab whatever you'd like for fifty coins, and then be on your way," Tom Nook said.
"Right," Captain Falcon nodded, as he stocked a bag with some essentials, then bid farewell to Tom Nook.
"What a generous man," Tom Nook said, as he watched Captain Falcon depart.
As Captain Falcon was walking, he was tripped, by a bump in the ground.
"What the hell?" Captain Falcon said.
"Watch where you're goin…bub!" Mr. Resetti yelled.
"What the heck are you?" Captain Falcon asked.
"Didn't they explain dem rules to ya?" Mr. Resetti asked.
"Yes…," Captain Falcon replied.
"So…how do you not know what to do then?" Mr. Resetti asked.
"Can you please explain, I'm confused," Captain Falcon said.
"Fine! Whenever you run into non-fighter character in another world, you scan them using your watch there, there are four options that will come up, if you scan a fighter, their name and their amount of wins so far will show up, if you scan someone from another world, and 'Assist Trophy' shows up, then you capture them, if you scan someone and it says 'Civilian' it means, they are simply viewing the tournament, and will not by any means be attacked by ANY fighter, and finally, if it says 'Enemy', it means they are enemies specifically designed as obstacles for the fighter, attacking them gains you more money, and sometimes even an item," Mr. Resetti explained.
"So…just scan you?" Captain Falcon asked.
"Go right ahead," Mr. Resetti said, Captain Falcon used the wrist watches scanner, to discover that Mr. Resetti was indeed an Assist Trophy.
"So…can I capture you?" Captain Falcon asked.
"If that's what need be, than I will allow you to do so, but that's truly up to you," Mr. Resetti said.
"If it will shut you up!" Captain Falcon said, trapping Mr. Resetti within the tiny capsule.
"Popo, I have a bad feeling about this, two people were already taken out of the tournament, and it hasn't even been three hours since we started," Nana cried.
"Don't worry Nana, I'll protect you from anything that comes our way!" Popo said.
"Thanks Popo!" Nana smiled.
"Target Acquired, battle mode initiated," a voice said from behind the Ice Climbers.
"Oh no, it's R.O.B!" Nana gasped.
"Get ready Nana!" Popo said, "We've gotta battle to win!"
Meanwhile, back in Tabuu's starship.
"Two down already, excellent work Mewtwo, Ganondorf," Tabuu snickered.
"Yes, all that aside, please, tell us, what happens with the tournaments losers?" Ganondorf asked.
"Well…if you really must know…," Tabuu grinned.
"Yes, please explain," Mewtwo said.
"I'm about to…, anyway, the losers will be transported here directly after their defeat, to a hold, at the bottom of long shaft, there, they are exposed to an insanely powerful magic known as 'Gorgon' in the form of a vaporous gas, and then…upon inhaling it, they are turned into stone," Tabuu explained.
"So Young Link and Dr. Mario are?" Mewtwo asked.
"That's right…stone…statues!' Tabuu laughed.
