So, after I posted the first chapter I found out script-form is against the rules and besides that no-one likes it. I'm going to change format in chapter 4. Please stick with it till then!

Also, fanfiction edits out my line breaks, so the transitions look weird….. sorry!

Alright! The newcomers are coming and the veterans have arrived, time for the big

boss to reveal himself. Time for things to get rolling!

All of the newcomers appear in a great hall in Smash Mansion. It is large and appears to be the main hall inside the doors. The hall is HUGE and at the far end, at the bottom of a HUGE stairway is a door. The newcomers are standing at the top of said stairs.

(If you need a visual idea, imagine the hallway in 'Harry Potter', which I don't own!)

Wario, still laughing, sees where he is. "WAH-HAH-HAH…..hah? ...... WHA?!?!?!?!!?!??!?"

Sonic leans sideways to the nearest person and murmurs, "Heh, that guy over there, (Wario) his brain seems way too slow, it's like he doesn't know this is a tournament…."

Snake sneers "It appears that besides you and me, the only others who know this is a tournament is the one that looks like he's out of a bad child's cartoon" (TL)

Sonic looks up at Snake. "Hey….. it's you……."

Snake looks down at Sonic. "HEY! Your that blasted hedge hog that blew up an ammo warehouse on shadow mosses island last week!!!!!" Snake lunges at Sonic, trying to grab him.

Sonic makes a break for it and escapes. "YOUR TO SLO-" Suddenly Sonic collides with someone.

"You seem energetic Sonic"

"How'd you know my….." Sonic looks up and faints.

Hearing Sonic hit the ground draws the attention of the other newcomers. As the newcomers lay eyes on there host, they let out a collective gasp.

"Don't fear, I was the one who brought you all here. Please, would you join the veterans below?"

The newcomers slowly walk down the stairs and mingle with the crowd of veterans. Wolf quickly spots and sneers at Fox and Falco while Ike runs up to Marth (Need less to say to Marth's despair). Lucas runs over to Ness and inquires what's going on and Diddy jumps onto DK's back. Lucario and Red wonder over to the other Pokémon whilst Meta Knight chases Dedede into Kirby, and spotting his old apprentice, calms down. The other (loners) drift into the crowd.

The mystery host floats to the center of the top of the steps.

"For those that don't know me, I'm Master Hand."

The crowd murmurs in amazement. (Except for those who have been attending since the first game)

"I have gathered you all here for the beginning of the 3rd battle in the Super Smash Brothers series. Namely, BRAWL!"

The crowd claps heartily.

"At the end of this battle of the ages, a champion shall emerge! "

The crowd cheers a little more enthusiastically.

"There will be two tests, one a tournament, and one a conquest"

The crowd murmurs excitedly.

"This week, the conquest will begin. As with the tournament, it will run from Monday to Friday, and then there will be a break on the weekend. Since it is Saturday, the tournament will start two days from now. Now, in order to win the conquest, you will have to cope with a few things….. First, you must be teleported to 31 stages congregated and fashioned out of real places in your worlds, and a few others. Second, you must deal with the fact that the only thing you will remember is the desire to conquest all 31 stages and all the time you spent trying to do that, nothing else. Thirdly, you must have the strength and will power to take over the stages by defeating the very people who you are standing beside now.

Now, when you enter battle on this conquest, you will have three lives or "stock" and every time you are hit, you will get injured, or gain "ratio." You will also have a home stage. A home stage is the stage you spawn back to if you lose a battle. The ownership of your home stage is crucial for your survival, because if you don't own your home stage, and lose in battle, you won't spawn. This does not mean that you will die, but you will be returned to your world with no memory of your time at brawl. You also lose the privilege of coming to the next instalment of the Smash Brothers series.

Oh, also, you are allowed to brawl in teams, but if that team wins, then they must choose a leader to win. Those are the rules of the conquest."

The Crowd is silent for a moment then chaos breaks loose, brawlers shout protest, males show off and there is general brawling.

MH tries desperately to get people's attention back. "Order! Order!" Madness continues.

"hmmmmmmm……" MH grabs Link and drags him to the top of the stairs. "If you please link…."

Link looks at MH, confused. "WHat?!? Oh……" He takes a large breath. "HHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

The entire crowd looks up at Link.

"EVERyone PAY attenTION to MASTer HAND!"

The crowd settles down and pay attention to MH.

Link re-joins Zelda in the crowd.

Zelda whispers, "Hey link….. why do you do that?"

Link whispers back, "Do what?"

"That thing where you lose your volume control and randomly shout parts of your sentences….."

Link blushes a bit. "Oh…… I have no idea, but it only really happens when I'm fighting….."

"Ok…… as long as you do start shouting at me"

Zelda ends the sentence with a little shove.

Link smiles and then looks back up at MH

"Now, it's time to introduce everyone….. if I call your name, please come up to the top of the stairs and tell everyone something about yourself. Alright, first up….. Mario."

Mario walks up. "Hello…. I am-a Mario, and-a I-a am an ex-a-plumber that-a can shoot-a fire balls out-a my hands."

"Kirby"

Kirby runs up. "POYO! Poyo, poyo poyo poyo, poyo!" Finishes Kirby with a smile.

The Crowd murmurs inquisitively wondering what the hell Kirby just said.

MH nods (somehow) "Very interesting Kirby…. next up, Link"

Link walks up. "I'm Link, and I'm the hero of time."

Someone shouts from the crowd. "YOU ALSO LOSE YOUR VOLUME CONTROL IN BATTLE!"

Stifled laughter comes from a few people in the crowd.

"Zelda, why don't you come up here and tell everyone instead of hiding in a crowd?"

Zelda blushes a bit as she walks up the stairs. "Hi, I'm Zelda and I have an alternate personality called Sheik"

"Donkey Kong"

D.K. runs up "OOH OOH OOH!"

"Samus"

Samus walks up "I'm Samus and," Samus alters her voice with her suit "I'm a bounty hunter"

"Pikachu"

Pikachu runs up. "Pika! Pika, pika pika!"

"Marth"

Marth bounds up the stairs. At the top he bows very royalty-like. "A pleasure to meet you all"

"Mr. Game and Watch"

Mr. Game and Watch runs up by tottering back and forth and at the top, rings his bell.

"The Newcomer, Sonic the Hedgehog"

Sonic, who is already up, yells to the crowd. "I'm Sonic! I'm the fastest thing ever! In other words, YOUR ALL TO SLOW!"

"The Newcomer, Solid Snake"

Snake slowly walks up. "Yeah, I'm Snake."

"The Newcomer, Red, the Pokémon trainer"

Red runs up. "Hi everyone! I'm Red and….." release his Pokémon "this is Squirtle, Ivysaur and Charizard!"

"The Newcomer, Diddy Kong"

Diddy runs up "Ooh! Ooh! Eeeeek!"

"Luigi"

Luigi rockets up (you know, his side B attack) "Hello, I'm-a Luigi, and-a I'm-a Mario's-a brother"

"Peach"

Peach hikes up her skirt and runs up. "I'm Peach! And I'm super" She pulls out her umbrella, "sweet"

"Bowser"

Bowser lumbers up the stairs. "I'm Bowser, and I'm the king of mushroom kingdom…. or will be….. one day…."

"Fox"

Fox runs up "I'm Fox! And I'm part of the hero for hire group, STARFOX!® Just call 999-725-8604 for immediate service! Operators on standby! Well…. Slippy anyway…."

(lol, free publicity)

"Falco"

Falco walks up. "I'm Falco, and I'm a pilot from Starfox…… unfortunately…….."

"The Newcomer, Wolf"

Wolf lounges up. "I'm Wolf……. if I had my way of things, the last two people that talked wouldn't be able to" And while he walks back down he grinned wolfishly.

"The Newcomer, Ike"

Ike runs up. "I'm Ike, and I…." drawing his sword, "FIGHT FOR MY FRIENDS!" And with that, buries his sword in the ground, and then runs back down the stairs.

"That's nice Ike, but can you take your sword back down with you?"

Ike runs back up and grabs the sword "hmmmppp….." Ike struggles with the sword then pulls it out.

There is mixed laughter from the crowd.

"The Ice Climbers"

Nana and Popo (the Ice Climbers) run up together

"I'm Nana,"

"And I'm Popo!"

"And were the Ice Climbers!"

"The Newcomer, Meta Knight"

Meta flies up. "hump….. I'm Meta Knight…. and well…… no one knows who I am."

The entire crowd sweatdrops.

"The Newcomer, King Dedede"

Dedede is carried up by his waddle doos. "I'm King" Kirby rolls his eyes, "Dedede and will one day own dream land!"

"The Newcomer, Lucario"

Lucario walks up and closes his eyes.

"Very interesting Lucario, (Lucario tells MH something via telepathy) up next, Yoshi"

Yoshi runs up "YO! YO! YOSHI!"

"Jigglypuff"

Jigglypuff rolls up. "I'm Jigglypuff, and to all you puffballs out there, I am available."

The crowd sweatdrops.

Meta edges to the back of the crowd.

"Ganondorf"

Ganondorf walks up very slowly "hmmmppp"

"Ok…… next, the Newcomer R.O.B. also known as Robot"

R.O.B. flies up "I. Am. R.O.B. he-llo."

"The Newcomer, Wario"

Wario walks up. "I'm Wario WAH-HAH-HAH! Ummmmm when do I get paid?"

"The Newcomer, Olimar"

Olimar blows whistle then walks up the stairs. "TWEET!"

"The Newcomer, Toon Link"

Toon Link walks up. "I'm Toon Link, and I'm super excited to be here and I can't wait to fight you all and get to know you and I can't wait to learn how you fight and and and……"

"That's all Toon Link, next, the Newcomer, Pit"

Pit runs up. "I'm Pit, and ….. THE FIGHT IS ON!"

"Captain Falcon"

Cap. Falcon runs up as only the second fastest character can. "I'm Captain Falcon, and I want you all to SHOW ME YOUR MOVES!"

"Ness"

Ness teleports to the top of the stairs "I'm Ness, and I hope you all do OK!"

"And finally, the Newcomer, Lucas!"

Lucas walks shyly up to the top "I'm… ummm…. well….."

Ness runs up beside his friend. "What Lucas means to say, is that he's well Lucas, and that he's excited to meet you all!"

Lucas smiles lamely. "Yeah….. what Ness said…."

"Well brawlers, that's all 35 of you, get ready to know 34 faces and names, because you could be living in this mansion with them for quite a while! Since it is Saturday, and we have today and tomorrow until the conquest starts, you may have a few minutes to look at your home stage before we start on Monday. Just enter the room on your right and enter the teleporter to get to your home stage. Some of you will have multiple home stages and some of your will share a home stage. When you are done, the room on your left has food set out for your enjoyment, and I will announce the dorms."

The crowd starts to head for the door on the right while Kirby and Yoshi start heading for the door on the left.

The crowd is teleported to their home stages.

Snake appears at shadow mosses island and forgets everything about smash mansion. "hmmm….. Time to do a check of the base……" He checks the stage over "Wait a minute…. why am I even at shadow mosses island? I better call in to base…." He crouches down and calls colonel. Then suddenly stands back up "Weird….. I can't patch through….."

MH, in a big booming voice, "TIME IS UP!"

Everyone is teleported back to smash mansion.

Snake remembers everything "Hey! Master guy! Why couldn't I call through to my base?"

"Oh yes Snake, thanks for reminding me, during the time you spend at smash mansion, you will not be able to contact your own world"

Crowd starts murmuring.

Peach creeps around the crowd and grabs all the girls, plus Popo who is with Nana and minus Samus.

The girls group in a corner.

Peach whispers. "Isn't this great? Look at all the guys to for the single girls to choose from!"

Zelda, whispers back, "You're right, there are a lot of boys here aren't there…… almost too many……"

Peach giggles. "Too many? There's no such thing as too many boys!"

Zelda ignores Peach. "MR. HAND!?"

"Yes Zelda?"

"Did you notice how many boys there are compared to girls?"

MH looks around at the group of brawlers. Y"ou're right Zelda, perhaps there could be a bit more girl power in brawl….. hmmmmmm….. There will be new girls arriving next Saturday!"

The girls cheer because there will be more girls.

The boys cheer because there will be more girls.

Snake and Samus don't cheer.

MH starts talking again.

"Now that that is decided, please pay extra special attention, because I will now announce the dorms. The dorms are on the second floor, or the floor I am on now."

(Up the stairs)

MH starts. "In dorm number one is Ness, Lucas and Mr. Game N Watch"

Lucas runs over to his friend.

Game N Watch totters up and rings his bell.

Ness taunts, "OK!"

"In dorm number two, Marth, Ike and Meta Knight"

Marth shakes his head looking at the mercenary and midget fighter.

Ike shoves sword in the ground again "I LIVE WITH MY FRIENDS!"

Meta "sigh….." He points his sword at Ike and Marth "COME!"

They all start for there dorm.

"In dorm number three, Mario, Luigi and Peach"

Luigi runs over to his brother "HA HA!"

Peach smiles. "Sweet…."

Mario nods. "Let's-a go!"

They all head for dorm number three.

"In dorm number four, Fox, Falco and Wolf"

Fox shouts randomly. "HERE I COME!" He runs over to falco and raises his hand "High five!"

Falco shook his head. "DON'T TRY ME"

Wolf sulked up to his dorm after Falco and Wolf

"In dorm number five, Link, Zelda and Toon Link"

Zelda walks over to Link "Looks like were together for once…."

Link smiled

Toon Link ran over. "!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"In dorm number six, Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong and R.O.B."

Diddy runs over and jumps on Donkey Kong's shoulders "EEK! EEK!"

Donkey Kong hooted, "OOOH! OOOH!"

R.O.B. rolled over. "Oh. Boy. Just. Great."

"In dorm number seven, The Ice climbers and Samus"

The 'Climbers start running around in circles in joy

Samus looks over at them and smiles.

(Not that anyone else can tell….)

"In dorm number eight, Red and his Pokémon"

Red throws out his Pokémon and they start playing together.

"In dorm number nine, Sonic, Captain Falcon and Lucario"

Cap. Falcon runs up to Sonic and Lucario "SHOW ME YOUR MOVES!"

Sonic shook his head. "YOU'RE BOTH TO SLOW!"

Lucario closes his eyes and smiles.

"In dorm number ten, Pit, Olimar and Yoshi"

Pit flies over to Olimar.

Olimar was trying to rein in his Pikmin.

Pit smiled. "YOU'RE NOT READY YET!"

Yoshi runs over. "YO! YO!"

"In dorm number eleven, Bowser, Wario and Ganondorf"

Wario laughed "WAH-HAH-HAH!"

Bowser shouted. "RAOH!"

Ganondorf stated to punch his palms. "huh, huh, HUH!"

"In dorm number twelve, Pikachu, Kirby and Jigglypuff"

Pikachu said cheerfully. "PIKA!"

Kirby jumped on Pikachu. "POYO!"

Jigglypuff, who was asleep the whole time woke up. "Huh…. what?"

"In dorm number thirteen, King Dedede and his army"

Dedede smiles as his men start to carry him to his dorm.

"And finally, in dorm number fifteen, Solid Snake and the Metal Gears he brought with him"

Snake thought happily (for Snake) "great….. I get to sleep in a massive room with four half organic nuclear platforms…"

Pit called out.

"WHAT ABOUT DORM NUMBER FOURTEEN?"

"Ah yes, there is an extra dorm of course. Now, why don't we head to the dining hall on the left and have a grand meal?"

Everyone walked into the dining hall to see Kirby and Yoshi on the table, stomachs bulging, with piles of plates all around them.

Bet, I fooled you at the top when I said the big boss would reveal himself! I'm not telling you who's trying to take over brawl until, well, until almost the end…..

Anyway, the beginning has begun and the conquest is a day away, I didn't feel like writing the rest of Saturday, so the next chapter is Sunday mourning in the beginning.

Want the inside exclusive? Check out my profile in between chapters for a preview of the next chapter! These will be limited-time-only things and will only be on my profile until I post the chapter. I may not post previews sometimes, but that's because there's nothing suspenseful in the next chapter.

So….. next chapter there will be talk of couples…. well, most of then anyway…..
