In a gigantic floating stadium, hundreds of fans were screaming and cheering. An all out teaser brawl; was taking place to signify the beginning of the Super Smash Bros Brawl tournament. In the V.I.P box, two Smashers were cheering along with the fans.

"Hey Perona," a girl with black hair with a pink streak on the side and wearing a shirt and jeans asked her companion, a pink haired girl wearing a shirt, skirt and stockings in the Gothic Lolita style, "Wanna have a bet on whose gonna win?"

Perona sighed and shook her head. "No thanks. Gambling is not my strong point, June. Maybe you could find someone else but I think they're going to start the match!"

As if to agree with her, a voice rang out from the loudspeakers. "Ladies and Gentlemen," boomed the huge voice, "The opening match will now begin!" At this, the crowd started cheering wildly. "Our first contestant is… The Fullmetal Alchemist Skye!

A trophy in the form of a silver haired nineteen year old man wearing a long electric blue coat, jeans, covered shoes and holding a gigantic green and blue scythe on his shoulder was thrown into the arena. When it landed, a yellow glow surrounded it and made the cool, hard surface of the trophy turn to living, warm flesh.

"Shall we begin?" Skye asked in a well modulated voice as he twirled the scythe around in his hand and drew some throwing knives from a coat pocket.

"And his opponent… the American Dragon Jake Long!" Another trophy flew out, this one representing a fourteen year old with black hair, wearing a red shirt and blue shorts and sneakers. It landed on the other side of the arena and the same yellow glow surrounded it.

"Alright Dudes! Let's get this party started! Dragon up!" Jake cried out to the stands and after a quick transformation, was in his dragon form.

"This is a one KO brawl. The first person to be knocked out will lose." The announcer declared. "Smashers ready… Go!"

Twenty minutes into the fight, Skye was leading the battle by a damage total of 75%. Meanwhile, Jake had a total of 95%. Both combatants were slowly tiring and some of their attacks were losing their strength. Of course, the fans didn't mind and so cheered whenever an attack landed.

"It's time to end this!" Skye yelled as he dodged a burst of Dragon fire. He threw a knife at Jake and when he was stunned, Skye made his move. Twirling his scythe so fast that it became a blur in his hands, he sent it in an uppercut arc. It hit Jake square in the jaw and the yellow aura surrounded his body.

He never knew what hit him as his now trophy form hit ground.

In a comfortable house in the middle of nowhere, Wolfang was watchingthe fight on his cinema screen sized TV. "Heh, Way to show the kid, Skye!" the TM2 wolf chuckled in appreciation as he watched Jake turn into a trophy. Shaking his head, he picked up a drink and started sipping it. "Just wait till I get out there! I'll show them all who's the best!"

Everyone started cheering at Skye's victory. It increased in volume as he reactivated Jake's trophy and helped him up. "Ugh, I feel really sore!" Jake moaned as he flexed his wings. In response, Skye held out his hand and smiled in appreciation of Jake's fighting skills. The dragon accepted it gratefully and gave him his own smile.

It was just at that moment that they heard a woman scream.

Turning around, the two Smashers could see the Halberd appear with a tide of evil, blood red clouds that soon covered the clear sky above the Stadium. "Something tells me that Meta Knight is not in control." Skye muttered as his eyes roamed the vast battleship.

Silently, a cargo hatch opened on the bottom of the ship and Shadow bugs started pouring out like purple snow. As each one landed on the stage, it slowly moved to others of its kind. Together, they were forming monsters. After the bugs had combined, Ten Pirmid's, Five Boom Pirmid's and a pair of Towtow's stood around Skye and Jake.

"You think there's any chance these things are harmless?" Jake gulped nervously as he took in the Monsters. In response, a Boom Pirmid threw its boomerang at him. Dodging, the dragon launched a burst of fire at it. Sadly, as the unfortunate Pirmid wasn't fireproof, it and two normal Pirmid's were incinerated by the attack.

"Does that answer your question?" Skye as he drew another knife, thought for a second, and repocketed it. Instead, he drew out twin revolvers and started firing a hail of bullets at the enemy.

Up in the stands, Perona and June watched as the two Smashers fought and quickly looked round. The Halberd was still floating above the Stadium and causing widespread panic among the fans who were heading for the nearest exit back to solid ground.

"C'mon!" June cried to her companion as she ran down the stairs, "We need to help out!"

"Right!" Perona said as together, they jumped onto the stage. June immediately punched a weakened Towtow which crashed into a Boom Pirmid, crushing it. At the same time, Perona launched a Negativity Ghost at another Boom Pirmid. It crouched down low, in obvious discomfort. She finished it off with a few whacks from her parasol.

"Nice job Ladies!" Skye complimented as he continued firing his revolvers at the remaining eight Pirmid's. At least four were destroyed and the rest were severely weakened. Jake contributed his fair share of kills by burning the last two Boom Pirmid's into ashes.

"These creatures don't seem very tough!" June remarked as she kept on hitting the enemies. The last Towtow was destroyed by her punches and the last four Pirmid's were killed by Skye and Perona with a combination of a Negativity Ghost and a scythe sweep.

Panting from the fight, the Smashers had some time to recover their breath. "Okay, I'd like to know what's going on and I'd like to know who made those monsters." Skye muttered as he holstered his revolvers.

A small speck detached itself from the Halberd and they watched, mystified, as it floated towards them. The speck turned out to be a small creature standing on a small grey platform wearing red and green robes and with a face completely covered in shadows (except for the eyes, which glowed a bright yellow). This was, of course, the Ancient Minister.

On the underside of the platform, a gigantic sphere with two slots on either side was attached to it. As the Minister came down low enough, the sphere dropped onto the ground with a loud thud. From behind it, two R.O.B's moved to either side of it.

As one, they slotted their arms into the sphere and pulled on it, revealing a countdown timer and an orb of purple-black coloration. The timer activated and began to countdown from Three minutes.

The Minister nodded once to himself but was there a hint of…regret in his eyes? Turning away, he flew back to The Halberd which was now slowly moving away from the vicinity.

Skye immediately ran towards the bomb. "We've got to stop that timer!" he shouted but then stopped as a loud boom echoed throughout the stadium. The Halberd, as a parting gift, had fired a cannonball at Skye. It hit him dead on and sent him soaring out of the stage and out of sight.

"Uh, okay, we're in trouble!" Jake said as he watched his ally disappear. Two screams alerted him to yet another threat. Turning, he saw a horrible sight.

A gigantic monster, made out of Shadow Bugs and in fact leaking them in a few spots was standing in front of him. Its body was humanoid but stooped; one of its arms was a five pronged claw while the other was a modified flamethrower, its face was a round affair with a single crimson eye, the coloration was silver and grey and to top it off, it had both June and Perona locked in cages on its back. This creature was Incinderclaw.

"Um… oh-oh." Jake gasped as he took in this monster. In response, Incinderclaw roared and let loose with a gigantic claw sweep that sent Jake to the other side of the stage.

"Urrgh… This guy means business!" he muttered as he picked himself up. Flaring his wings, Jake tackled Incinderclaw and hit June's cage (1/3 hits taken)

Bellowing in rage, Incinderclaw started spewing fire from his right hand at Jake. Being a dragon, he didn't take as much damage as Incinderclaw would have liked, so it followed up with another claw sweep. This also hit Jake and again sent him flying backwards.

The dragon got back up and stretched his body. "Man, I'm gonna have to see a Chiropractor after this!" he groaned. Taking to the air, he saw his chance. He tackled Incinderclaw's back again and hit June's cage but followed up by smashing his tail like a whip into its leg. (2/3 hits taken)

The leg started leaking Shadow Bus and Incinderclaw was forced down on its knee by its incredible weight. Now it was really angry. The Flamethrower started shifting by splitting in two and spinning. "This doesn't look good!" Jake muttered as he watched the Flamethrower charge up with reddish-orange fire.

His tail touched something behind him as he backed away slightly. Turning to it, he bent down and picked up a green box with white exclamation Marks on it. It disappeared after he picked it up but then he noticed that his body had turned entirely metal. "Huh?!"

At that second, Incinderclaw fired it's most powerful attack, 'Fiery Rage' at him. A gigantic stream of fire gushed out of the Flamethrower and set half the stage on fire.

After the fames had died down, expecting to see a trophy where Jake stood after the blast, Incinderclaw was understandably surprised when it saw a damaged but still standing metal Dragon facing it.

Leaping up, Jake flew in for one final tackle. Incinderclaw couldn't dodge in time and so was thrown back as he smashed right into the body and dislodging both cages from its back. (3/3 hits taken)

The flamethrower, still cooling down from the 'Fiery Rage' it had launched, exploded in a shower of Bugs from the force of the attack. The force of this sent Incinderclaw tumbling off the stage and freefalling to the ground far below.

Punching her way out of her weakened cage, June jogged over to Jake. "You okay?" she asked with concern. Jake grinned in response. "Little sore but I'll be fine!" The metal effect wore off and left Jake back to normal.

"You won't be for long, Kid!" a voice called out to them and with a slam, Wario landed in the arena in all his greedy glory, holding a purple and black gun that looked like a Dragon head.

Pointing the gun at them, he remarked "Who shall I defeat today?" A loud groan to his left came out as an answer.

Turning, he saw that Perona was just getting out of her cage and wasn't totally with everyone at the moment. "Heh, too easy!" he chuckled as he aimed at her and fired the gun. A black laser in the form of an arrow went right through her and instantly turned her into a trophy, which hit the ground with a loud clunk!

"Venom, get the girl and we'll get out of here before the bomb goes off!" Wario barked as he jumped out of the arena. A large, black, humanoid creature with fang like teeth and a white spider symbol on his back and chest landed next to Perona and picked her up.

"See you around!" he hissed at Jake and June before hoisting the trophy over his shoulder and jumping after Wario.

"Quick, after him!" cried June as she raced in their direction. Jake tried following but stopped as he looked at the bomb. The timer had gone down to five seconds!

Five…

Four…

Three…

Two…

One…

Boom!!

The orb had released itself from the bomb and covered the entire stadium in an orb of Purple-black Subspace.

A small dot streaked away from the field, barely keeping in front of the orb, before picking up speed and flying away. Closer inspection revealed it to be Jake carrying June on his back, having successfully escaped the field of nothingness that had once been the Mid-Air stadium…
