kyrogue23: I don't know yet if Ike, Marth and Roy will all team up, but two of them will at some point. As for Lucario and Mewtwo, I didn't think of that. But it's happening now.
Ninja Mongoose: Glad to have you back, kinda. You haven't updated in a while, bro. And your new favorite is Olimar? He'll probably show up soon, but no guarantees.
Inside the purple void that is Subspace, dozens of red, orange and yellow diamonds descended from the sky until they slowly formed into Ghirahim. He stretched for a moment before kneeling and saying, "Demise, my lord. I have fought some of those pathetic heroes. They don't stand a chance."
A large demonic being emerged from the darkness. The being was immensely tall, with flaming red hair and red eyes. "Very good Ghirahim. I've already sent a monster to our next target," Demise stated with his booming voice.
"When do we take back the villains that turned," Ghirahim asked from the ground.
"Soon. Very soon," Demise stated as he began to laugh evilly.
After Tabuu was defeated and the world returned to normal, the citizens of the world began to expand, building new cities in newly expanded territory. The biggest of these cities had many attractions, including a race track. A blue hovercraft sped around the track at immensely fast speeds, eventually stopping at the area reserved for pit crew operations. The cockpit opened and out stepped the F-Zero champion, Captain Falcon. He walked to a nearby elevator and entered it, bringing him up to his penthouse apartment, which fittingly looked over the racetrack. He plopped down on the couch and turned the TV on, not even bothering to take off his racing helmet.
Currently on the TV was a news report from the Midair Stadium, which looked like it was in ruins. The reporter said, "No one knows why the attack happened but many are suspecting the Subspace Army has returned and is at fault, as some of their soldiers were part of the attack."
"Weird," Captain Falcon remarked as he listened to the news report. After a few minutes, he turned the television off. He proceeded to his kitchen to prepare something to eat but as he was getting ingredients, a series of gunshots went off. Running to the window that overlooked the street, Captain Falcon remarked, "What the hell?"
A large, mechanical, four-legged spider was rampaging through the streets, a minigun attached to the bottom of its spherical body shooting wildly at the panicking civilians. Below the machine was a number of smaller spider-like creatures. They were in a variety of colors, including red, yellow, blue and purple and they seemed to skitter around on the ground, not really causing any damage. Among the smaller spiders were many Primids. Though the troops consisted of primarily standard Primids, some Metal Primids, Scope Primids, Sword Primids and Winged Primids were in the mix. Captain Falcon ran up to the roof of the building to better survey the attack.
While the turret on the bottom of the mechanical spider was dealing quite a bit of damage to the environment, the Primids, particularly those with swords or guns, were the main causes of trouble. Out of the corner of his eye, Captain Falcon saw a large blast of what seemed like cosmic energy plummeting out of the sky and blowing away a number of the Primids. Realizing he needed to start fighting off the evil forces below, Captain Falcon got a running start and jumped off the building.
As he plummeted, he gathered fiery energy in his fist. He pulled his arm back as he fell toward the mechanical spider and he shouted, "Falcon PAWNCH!" He punched the hull of the spider like creature with incredible force as a falcon made of fire formed around his fist. The sheer force of the punch managed to breach the hull very slightly. As he pulled his fist out, he grabbed and ripped out some of the electronics, causing the gunfire to cease.
The mechanical spider thrashed around wildly, shaking Captain Falcon off. The F-Zero pilot fell but he could feel his descent being slowed. He still hit the ground with enough force to destroy a couple of Primids that just so happened to break his fall. A bright light shone near him and out stepped Rosalina.
"Who are you," Captain Falcon asked as he kicked a Primid in the head.
Rosalina used her magic to stun several Scope Primids and replied, "My name is Rosalina. I saw what was happening from my Comet Observatory and needed to help."
Captain Falcon used his Raptor Boost and sent a Metal Primid flying into the air as he said, "Well thanks for the assist." The giant mechanical spider stopped moving as it no it could no longer shoot its minigun. Rosalina used her magic to call in another blast of energy from the Comet Observatory, blowing away many more Primids. The number of Primids decreased as Captain Falcon punched, kicked and generally beat down the weak lackeys. Rosalina contributed to this by using her magic to either kill some Primids or slow their attack in some way.
Once most of the Primids had been dealt with, a loud, ear splitting screech echoed out as a blue spinning machine descended into the city. The top of the machine lifted off to reveal an old man with white hair and a white moustache. He was wearing a lab coat and a red tie. "So you managed to take out the gun on the Man-At-Legs huh? It seems you're a bit troublesome. No matter, nothing one of my Robot Masters can't take care of. Cut Man! Vanquish these foolish heroes," the man cried as a red robot that appeared to have a pair of scissors on its head detached itself from the bottom of the craft along with a bunch of robots wearing yellow hard hats.
Captain Falcon grabbed a nearby Primid and threw it at the hovercraft and said, "Who are you?"
The man looked at the F-Zero pilot and said, "Since you'll be defeated at the hands of my Robot Master, I suppose I can tell you. I am Doctor Albert Wily, robot genius and creator of the Robot Masters. Man-At-Legs, return to my base at once so I can repair you. Farewell foolish heroes!"
The top of the machine lowered onto the bottom part of it and the machine departed, uttering the screech once again. The large spider followed the machine and Captain Falcon said, "We have to go after them!"
"I'm afraid we have to let them go for now. If we don't stop these robots here, they will cause untold devastation. Plus we have the spiders and Primids to worry about," Rosalina said.
"I'm going after that robot then," Captain Falcon proclaimed as he leapt into the sky, soaring over the Primids below him. As he prepared another Falcon Punch, Cut Man threw several scissor-like boomerangs, intercepting the F-Zero pilot.
Captain Falcon fell to the ground and was suddenly surrounded by Primids and the small yellow robots. Rosalina was also busy being surrounded by the small spider creatures. Captain Falcon closed his eyes, waiting for the Sword Primids and Scope Primids to finish him off. He heard several blasts from a gun but never felt the impact. Opening his eyes and sitting up, Captain Falcon saw the robots destroyed and the Primids nowhere to be seen. What he did see was a man in blue armor and a blue helmet. In the place of his right hand was the smoking barrel of a gun.
"Are you alright," the man asked.
Captain Falcon got up off the ground and punched a Primid running toward him before replying, "Yeah, I'm fine. Who are you?"
The man fired his arm cannon at a couple of the yellow robots that were flying with little propellers in their heads before answering, "I'm Mega Man. I'm a robot designed by Dr. Light. I initially helped him with work around his lab but after Wily went rogue he turned me into a fighter. I now have to stop him and his Robot Masters."
"Like scissor-head over there," Captain Falcon asked.
Mega Man nodded and replied, "Yes, Cut Man is one of the Robot Masters I have to defeat."
Rosalina worked her way over to the pair after fighting off a few of the spiders and said, "We'll cover you, defeat that robot."
Mega Man nodded and said, "All right."
He turned and faced his adversary, who said, "Mega Man, you're back. Master Wily has rebuilt me stronger than before. You don't stand a chance! Come and face me." Cut Man then turned around and ran into the nearby park, Mega Man following after him.
Captain Falcon turned to Rosalina and said, "Let's kick some ass!" Captain Falcon ran toward a red spider and began beating on it, until it started to glow a brighter red. "The hell," was all the F-Zero pilot was able to say before the spider combust into flames, burning the Captain.
"I meant to tell you," Rosalina remarked as she approached Captain Falcon, "The spiders seem to have different powers. The red ones combust upon death, the yellows send out electric pulses, the blues vent water from their bodies and the purple ones emit poison."
"Seriously? Anything you can do to help me," Captain Falcon asked.
Rosalina nodded and said, "Of course, just give me a moment." Rosalina closed her eyes as her wand glowed for a moment before she opened her one visible eye and said, "Alright, you won't be affected by the fire, poison or electricity. You will still feel minor pain but you can't be killed by it."
Captain Falcon nodded and said, "Thanks."
"Don't mention it," Rosalina remarked.
Captain Falcon rushed into a group of the spiders and said, "Yes! Show me your moves!" The spiders didn't know it at the time, but an epic beatdown was about to occur.
Mega Man was currently chasing Cut Man through the park, continually firing his blaster at the robots that appeared out of nowhere. He had to be accurate with every shot he fired, as the small blue robots would chase after him using the propellers on their heads, their creepy grin never leaving their face. Suddenly, a group of the robots popped out of the bushes, surrounding the Blue Bomber.
"This is fun isn't it Mega Man? Much more enjoyable than waiting for you to show up, that's for sure. Now my minions, attack," Cut Man called out from somewhere in the trees. Mega Man readied his arm cannon as the robots flew towards him. He started to unleash hell, firing into the massive amount of enemies converging upon him.
"Falcon Kick," Captain Falcon shouted out as he fell toward one of the blue spiders, his boot aflame. He made contact with the arachnid and it died, spewing water over the immediate area. Captain Falcon rushed off to kill some more of the spiders while Rosalina took note of the water.
Punching and kicking, she managed to lure some of the spiders to the large puddle. They stood around, not doing much as they lost interest with Rosalina while she began to attack a yellow spider that was in the area. Electricity began to cackle on it and Rosalina floated above the spiders as the yellow spider unleashed an electric blast, electrocuting every spider that wasn't yellow.A few blasts of magic finished off the couple of yellow spiders that remained.
Captain Falcon meanwhile, sent a purple spider flying with a flaming uppercut, killing the beast. He followed this up by dashing forward, striking down any of the spider creatures that were unfortunate enough to be in his path. The F-Zero pilot heard something behind him and turned on his heel, shouting, "FALCON PAWNCH!"
His flaming fist came into contact with one of the red spiders, sending it flying back with such force that when it collided with a purple spider, it killed the other one on impact. Captain Falcon glanced to his right at the shattered glass of a storefront and saw a ray gun lying among the glass.
He picked the ranged weapon up and began firing it at the spiders that were simply skittering around. He was fairly accurate with the weapon, as about half of his shots met their mark. Once the weapon was out of ammunition, he discarded it and raced around, looking for Rosalina.
He found the "Princess" of the Comet Observatory finishing off a couple of nearby spiders while observing the others. "Man, there's no end to these things," Captain Falcon remarked while punching another monster.
Rosalina nodded and said, "I believe that they will retreat if the commander of these forces is defeated. All we can do right now is hope that Mega Man can defeat that other robot."
The F-Zero pilot nodded and said, "So what do we do while we wait?"
"Just make sure these guys don't kill you. Attack them or not it's up to you. But they seem pretty docile and aren't attacking. They appear to just be sitting there," Rosalina responded as she continued to look at the spiders moving about.
"Just watch your back," Captain Falcon remarked as he ran back into the crowd of spiders.
Scrap metal lay all over the environment as Mega Man finally lowered his arm cannon. All of Cut Man's lackeys had been taken care of, and now only he remained. Mega Man ran off in the direction he saw the Robot Master retreat until he got to a clearing. Standing on a tree branch was the one Mega Man was searching for. "Well Mega Man, it's time for you to die. It was fun watching you struggle, but you've overstayed your welcome," Cut Man declared as he threw several pairs of scissors as if they were boomerangs.
Mega Man jumped over the first two pairs, but the third pair hit him as he was getting back down to the ground. Mega Man cringed slightly but shrugged it off and said, "You're not as strong as you say you are Cut Man. That didn't damage me much."
Cut Man threw several more pairs of scissors in anger, and like before, only one pair hit Mega Man. The Blue Bomber began firing his arm cannon at Dr. Wily's creation, damaging it. Cut Man launched a bunch of scissors at his opponent before charging forward.
Mega Man was so preoccupied with dodging the projectiles that he neglected to notice the approaching Robot Master. Cut Man slashed at Mega Man with a blade that he was now equipped with. The blade hit its target, damaging Mega Man. Cut Man grinned evilly and asked, "Am I as strong as I claimed now?"
Mega Man tried to reply but before he could, Cut Man put his blade to the Blue Bomber's neck. "Time for me to do what none of Dr. Wily's other robots could do: I'm going to kill you Mega Man! Hahahahaha," Cut Man laughed maniacally.
Mega Man mumbled something, which caught Cut Man's attention. The Robot Master looked confused before grinning again, "You can't even speak. How pathetic. What were you saying?"
Mega Man smirked and said, "You forgot about my cannon."
"What," was all Cut Man was able to say before he got hit in the torso with a fully charged Mega Buster blast. Cut Man's lower torso and legs were completely obliterated by the blast, causing what was left of Cut Man to crash to the ground. "H-How were y-you able to d-do this," Cut Man stuttered as the blast damaged his vocal processor.
"You're not the only one who got an upgrade," Mega Man stated before he fired a blast at Cut Man's head, defeating him. Mega Man pressed a button on his helmet which then caused a scanner to appear in front of his eye. He scanned Cut Man's defeated body until a beep was heard.
The scanner then read, "You got Rolling Cutter." Mega Man began to walk away from the remains of Cut Man's body as the scanner retreated into his helmet. By the time he made it back to Captain Falcon and Rosalina, all of the spiders were gone, corpses of dead ones littered about.
Captain Falcon saw Mega Man approaching and said, "Hey thanks for the save back there. Did you get who you were going after?"
"I did, but I'm certain there will be more robots like him. I have to hunt them down in order to defeat my nemesis Dr. Wily. I could use all the help I could get, if you wish to accompany me," Mega Man replied.
"Count me in. Those bastards attacked my home and they need to pay," Captain Falcon agreed with a nod.
Rosalina shook her head and said, "I'm afraid I cannot join you. I have to return to the Comet Observatory. But if you are in trouble, I will assist you as I will be keeping an eye on you from the Comet Observatory."
Captain Falcon saluted and said, "Thanks for the help anyways."
Rosalina nodded as a bright light enveloped her. When the light subsided, she had vanished. Turning to Mega Man, Captain Falcon asked, "So where to now?"
"When I scanned Cut Man's memory banks, I saw what Wily's next target was. That's where we're going," Mega Man replied as he started to walk in the appropriate direction.
"Lead the way," Captain Falcon said as he followed the Blue Bomber.
That's right! Only three chapters in and the third party character that deserves to be in Smash Bros the most has made his debut. Seriously, why was Mega Man not put into Brawl? Anyways, if you couldn't tell, this sets up a subplot where Mega Man has to hunt down several robot masters. If there's any you want in for whatever reason, let me know and I'll see if I can put them in. I'll let you know that Napalm Man from Mega Man 5 will show up at one point. Expect only 8 Robot Masters, just like the regular Mega Man games (not counting the original), and at least at one point, Mega Man will have to fight two at once. Anyways, you know the deal, you want a character in? Tell me in a review.
Now I bet you're wondering, "What's New Chapter Week?" Great Question! New Chapter Week is this week, where I update one of my stories every night. If you're a fan of any of my other stories, check out my profile to see when the next chapter of the story you want to read will be up. The only story that will not be a part of New Chapter Week is Total Drama Zombieland, which had a new chapter over the summer. Anyways, tomorrow's new chapter will be for Scott Pilgrim vs The Island. I hope to see you all for the remainder of New Chapter Week and if not, Until Next Time!
