Dream Guardian AMS: Welcome back everyone to another chapter of the 20th Anniversary Super Smash Bros Tournament. This chapter will focus on the interviews of 10 fighters you guys have suggested. I hope you guys enjoy the interviews. Quick disclaimer: This is idea was inspired by New Smash Bros Interviews by Ability King KK. Go check out his/her story if you need ideas for suggestions.
DISCLAIMER: I OWN NOTHING!
It was early in the morning and the doors to let the possible fighters in would open soon. AMS, Master and Crazy Hand, along with Fox and Lucina. They were seated at a table with Master and Crazy Hand at both ends while AMS, Fox, and Lucina sat in the middle.
"Ok, just so we are all clear. The new fighter applicants are going to be coming from that door there," said AMS pointing to a door to their right. "We'll ask them what game they are from and then I'll look it up on the Nintendo Database and see if their game is on any Nintendo console. It they do have a game on a Nintendo console we continue the interview, if not, we put a big red rejected stamp on their application and I pull the red rope." AMS pointed to a red velvet rope above his head. "Depending on how the interview goes, we either stamp their application with either 'Approved' or 'Under Consideration.' 'Under Consideration' means that they have a chance to get into the tournament, but we wish to see all the other possible fighters before making a decision. Everyone got it?"
"Got it," said the rest of the group.
"Ok good. Master Hand, do we have something set up to keep those waiting in line entertained until we are ready for them?" asked AMS.
"We have a projector set up showing the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe. That should keep anyone entertained," answered Master Hand.
"What about the people that will be waiting outside the doors? This tournament is very popular and there will no doubt by lots of people wanting in," asked Lucina.
"We have shade tents set up outside and Isabelle will be on standby to give anyone water if they need it," answered Master Hand.
"Excellent! Now then, let's get this party started," said AMS as he press the button letting the first applicant in.
Their first applicant to interview was a young man with blue jacket, white shirt, and brown hoodie, his left hand was a twisted mass of unknown substance.
"So how can we help you today Mr...Alex Mercer?" said AMS as he looked at the application.
"I am here to enter the Super Smash Bros Tournament. I heard that you were extending you pool of applicants, so I wish to prove my skills against the greatest fighters in the universe," answered Alex.
"A good answer, but first we need to know if you even qualify. So we just need to ask a few questions," said Fox.
"Ask away," said Alex.
"First question: Did you make your debut in a video game?" asked Lucina.
"Yes," answered Alex.
"Second question: What series are you from?" asked Crazy Hand.
"Prototype," answered Alex.
"Okay, let's see if your series has been on an Nintendo console," said AMS as he typed into the Nintendo Database.
0 Results for: Prototype
"Ohhh, sorry, but according to this: you nor your games have ever been on a Nintendo console or game. So, I'm sorry to say that you do not qualify for this tournament," said AMS as he reached for the rope.
"No, I will not be the first to be rejected," said Alex readying to attack but was cut short when AMS pulled the rope. A trapdoor opened up and Alex fell down screaming all the way, the trapdoor closed shortly after.
"NEXT!" yelled AMS.
S-s-s-s-s-s-S
The next fighter applicant entered into the room, a Waddle Dee with a blue bandana and spear. The little guy was about to speak when he was interrupted with, "APPROVED!" Everyone looked at AMS for the fast approval, "What? This little guy is very popular and has been very requested ever since his debut in Return to Dreamland. There is no reason for Bandana Waddle Dee to be in the 20th Super Smash Bros Tournament."
"Very well, Bandana Waddle Dee, welcome to Super Smash Bros 20th tournament. Please walk through these doors and head down the hallway marked 'Approved Fighters.'" said Master Hand.
Bandana Dee did a cute little dance before heading through the doors Master Hand pointed to.
"That was quick, maybe we'll have the 256 fighters we need before long," said Lucina.
"Don't count on it. I tried making a 256 character roster and I still ended up being 50 characters short. We maybe here for a long time," said AMS as he pressed a button and yelled, "NEXT!"
S-s-s-s-s-s-S
The group waited for the next applicant to come in but it was taking longer than usual.
"Where's the next fighter? He or she should have been here by now," said Fox.
"Well whoever it is, better have an awesome entrance planned, because it is bringing the line to a halt," said AMS. Just then the doors opened but no one came in. Everyone looked confused before a paper version of Mario turned towards them and waved. "Ah Paper Mario, I give you an eight for style on the entrance. What can we do for you today?"
Paper Mario pointed to a poster of the Super Smash Bros 20th tournament.
"Ah, you wish to compete in the tournament," said Master Hand with Paper Mario nodding his head.
"Fantastic, you have been a really requested character and I'm sure the fans will be happy to see you here," said Lucina with Paper Mario nodding his head in pride.
"Yes that is great, but one question remains: Are you going to bringing your own moves or are you just going to be a paper clone of Mario?" asked AMS.
Paper Mario shook his head and brought out his hammer and sticker book. He then signaled outside the room and entered all his partners from the first two Paper Mario adventures. Paper Mario showed off these things to the five interviewers.
"So, you plan on having a moveset involving your hammer and partners. Sounds like a recipe for chaos. I like it," said Crazy Hand.
"Very well, consider yourself approved,"said AMS as he stamped APPROVED on Paper Mario's application. Paper Mario and his friends walked through the door to join with the rest of the fighters. "One less fighter to worry about. NEXT!"
S-s-s-s-s-s-S
The next applicant appear in front of the table of judges. It was a large Boo with scary eyes and wearing a large crown. "I am here to have my revenge," said the Boo in a scary voice.
"Sorry King Boo, Luigi is not here. Go somewhere else if you want your revenge," said AMS unimpressed.
"Oh, I know. I have come here to apply for the tournament so I can at least get a chance to fight him and get my revenge that way," said King Boo.
"Hmm, well the roster could use another villain on the roster, but I don't know how well you would translate into Super Smash Bros. What do you think guys?" asked Fox.
"I am indifferent to King Boo joining the roster," said Master Hand.
"I would be glad he made it but not upset if he doesn't," said AMS.
"I am not wild King Boo using this as a chance to hurt my friends," said Lucina.
"PUT HIM! THE ROSTER NEEDS MORE VILLAINS," yelled Crazy Hand.
"Looks like it is a majority vote on middle road," said AMS.
"Very well, we will take your application and put you under consideration for the tournament. We will let you know if we decide to put you in the roster," said Lucina.
"Thank you, which way do I go now?" asked King Boo.
"Go through that door, down the hall and go inside the door labeled 'Under Consideration Fighters'" answered Master Hand.
"Thanks," said King Boo as he went through the side door.
"NEXT!"
S-s-s-s-s-s-S
The next applicant was a little girl in a blue sundress with red flowers on it holding a telescope. "Hello," said the little girl while smiling.
"Aryll, what are you doing here?" asked Lucina.
"I'm here to fight. Big brother is useless without me so I want to give him a helping hand in the tournament," answered Aryll.
This statement caused the panel of judges to look at each other before going into a huddle. "Look we can't let Aryll compete in the tournament. She's going to get herself killed and then Toon Link is going to kill us for letting her in the tournament," said AMS.
"We need to handle this situation delicately. The roster already has some kid characters, and we don't want her throwing a fit because of it," said Master Hand.
"Agreed," said Fox. The group exited out of their huddle and look towards Aryll. "Listen Aryll, we appreciate you coming out here to tryout for a spot on the roster, but we are interested in more...qualified fighters," said Fox.
"But, aren't I a good fighter?" asked Aryll with pleading eyes. This made the group feel uncomfortable and about ready to give her a spot on the roster. They just couldn't say no to a little girl with pleading eyes.
"SOMEONE DO SOMETHING QUICK BEFORE MY SOFT HEART TURNS INTO A PUDDLE!" yelled AMS.
"I'LL PULL THE ROPE!" yelled Crazy Hand.
"BROTHER NO! YOU CAN'T SEND A CHILD DOWN A TRAPDOOR!" yelled Master Hand but it was too late, Crazy Hand pulled the red rope.
After the rope was pulled, the trapdoor didn't activate. The group was confused until they started to hear a phone call ring on speaker. They started to look for the source of the phone call so they could end it.
The phone stopped ringing as someone had picked it up on the receiver end. "Hello, this is Toon Link. Who is this?" said Toon Link.
"Hello Toon Link. Your sister Aryll has recently submitted an application for the Super Smash Bros 20th Anniversary tournament. However, due to her young age we can not allow her to participate. So we request that you come down to the interview room and pick her up. Thank you and have a wonderful day," said a robotic woman's voice before ending the call.
"Which of you made that call because I sure as hell didn't make it," asked AMS.
"I didn't make the call! Did you make the call?" asked Fox to Lucina.
"I didn't do this! Master Hand did you do this?" asked Lucina.
"Not me, I didn't know this would happen. Blame Crazy," said Master.
"Don't pin this on me brother, I just pulled the rope," said Crazy.
Just then, the group heard hurried footsteps, they all looked towards the source of the noise and it was coming from. Toon Link burst through the doors and said, "Aryll! What are you doing here?! Don't you know how dangerous this tournament is?"
"Yes, but I want to help you big brother," said Aryll with a smile.
"I appriciate it Aryll, but the best way you can help is by staying out of harm's way. And entering into this tournament is not going to help with that," said Toon Link as he grabbed Aryll's hand. "Now come on, grandma is waiting for us to meet her for lunch."
"Ah, why can't I fight with you?" asked Aryll.
The two siblings left the room leaving the interviewers confused. "Let's just go on to the next fighter applicant alright?" asked AMS. The rest of the group nodded their heads. "NEXT!"
S-s-s-s-s-s-S
A lour roar echoed through the building as the judges waited for the next applicant.
"What was that noise?" asked Fox before a large and long green dragon came busting into the room barely fitting into the room. The group noticed that the dragon was Rayquaza the legendary Pokemon.
"I hate to be using this excuse that is always used for Ridley, but Rayquaza, YOU ARE TOO BIG!" yelled AMS as he is squished into the wall. Rayquaza was saddened by the answer, it would just float away but, he was kind of stuck.
Lucina was the closest to the reject rope and reached for it. Lucina pulled the rope and a Master Ball appeared in her hand. The princess warrior tapped Rayquaza with the pokeball and caught it inside.
After the ding sound AMS took the pokeball, "I'll take that and we'll give it to Red at the end of the day. NEXT!"
S-s-s-s-s-s-S
The next fighter applicant was a anthropomorphic bandicoot with blue jeans, brown finger-less gloves, sneakers, and orange fur. "Alright Crash Bandicoot, you want to be in the 20th Super Smash Bros Tournament, right?" asked Master Hand.
Crash was about to say something till AMS stamped on Crash's application, "APPROVED!"
"That was rather quick," said Fox.
"Well, Crash is a no brainer in terms of adding newcomers to the list. He's a popular icon, he's both nostalgic and fresh in people's minds thanks to the N. Sane Trilogy. Speaking of that, Crash is also coming to the Switch. He's been both Mario's and Sonic's rival for a long time. He's also been highly requested going by all the top 10 videos for Super Smash Bros Newcomers," explained AMS.
The rest of the group agreed to this logic and Lucina said, "Very well, Crash Bandicoot, you are in the tournament." Crash jumped for joy and did the Crash dance before walking through the doors for approved fighters.
"NEXT!"
S-s-s-s-s-s-S
The next fighter applicant walked into the room; a creature with no limbs with only having a head, torso, hands, and feet. "Hi guys!" said the figure.
"Hi Rayman," said the judges.
"Go on ahead, we have already approved you for the tournament," said Fox.
"Thank you," said Rayman as he went through the approved fighters door.
"It's good to have characters that can be quickly approved. It makes things so much easier," said AMS.
"How many third party characters do you think we'll end up with by the end of these interviews?" asked Lucina.
"Hard to say, but as long as those characters are well known and popular, we can have as many as we can," said Master Hand.
"Yeah, let's make everyone fight! Let's have a 1000 character roster!" said Crazy Hand.
"Now there's a nightmare in it of itself," said AMS. "NEXT!"
S-s-s-s-s-s-S
The next applicant was a short rag doll with a zipper in the middle of its torso, and a big head with solid black eyes. It waved at the judges with a smile on its face. Master, Crazy, Fox, and Lucina looked at it curiosity while AMS just frowned at it.
"Hmm, what do we have here?" asked Fox.
"Apparently, this is Sackboy from Little Big Planet," answered Master Hand.
"Well, let's see if he's in the Nintendo Database and see if it qualifies for the tournament," said Lucina.
"Don't bother, I know this little guy's series and he is not on any Nintendo console," said AMS.
"Are you sure AMS?" asked Crazy Hand.
"Positive. This little plush is an playstation mascot and as such he has and will never have a game on a Nintendo console," said AMS.
"Very well, in light of this news, we are sad to say that your application for entering the tournament as rejected," said Lucina as she stamped a big red 'Rejected' on Sackboy's application.
Sackboy was not happy with this and started to angrily wave his fists in anger. "Don't give me that look. You read the rules, and you knew very well that your chances were very slim. So, don't give me that," said AMS as he pulled the reject rope.
A Labo box appeared out of nowhere and white gloved hands came out and brought out the cardboard. The hands took the kit and built a rocket and stuffed Sackboy into the rocket before lighting a fuse at the bottom of the rocket, with Sackboy slightly screaming in fear.
"Oh hell no," said AMS as he left the table and grabbed Sackboy before the rocket lifted off and flew out the doors. A few seconds later, a loud boom was heard. "You may be rejected from the tournament, but you don't deserve that. Besides, you're too cute to blow up." Sackboy smiled and hugged AMS, "Alright, no need to get sappy. You can't participate as a fighter but you can still stay to watch the tournament." Sackboy smiled and left the room.
"We need to fix that rope so it does less dangerous things to our rejected applicants," said Fox.
"Agreed. We'll call maintenance and see what they can do with the reject rope," said Master Hand.
"NEXT!"
S-s-s-s-s-s-S
The judges waited for their next applicant, the doors opened but they didn't see anyone come in. "Uh hello? Can you all see me?" said a British voice. The judges looked around but saw no one. "Down here!" The five looked down and found a talking white ball with a blue eye. "Oh, you found me good. I was worried that you wouldn't be able to see me. Anyway, my name is Wheatley and I want to join the tournament."
"Ah no, not you," said AMS.
"You know this robot AMS?" asked Fox.
"I certainly do. He's from the Portal series, and is a certified moron," answered AMS.
"I AM NOT A MORON!" yelled Wheatley.
"What's Portal?" asked Lucina.
"A physics based puzzle game that uses portals to solve them. I'll lend it to you sometime, but the bottom line is, the series has never been on Nintendo systems. So, we'll just go ahead and say this one is reject..." started AMS.
"Hold on there. According to the database, there is a Portal game on the Switch," said Master Hand.
"Huh? Let me see that. Since when did Valve port Portal to Switch," AMS looks at database and sees 'Portal Bridge Constructor.' "Well, I'll be darned. There is a Portal game on the Switch, so he follows both rules. Now the next question is, can you fight?"
"Oh yes, I can fight. I can fight like nothing else. My fight skills are just about as good as my hacking skills," said Wheatley.
"Oh really," asked AMS as he raised an eyebrow.
"Yes," said Wheatley.
AMS got up from the table and walked over to Wheatley, "If you are such a good fighter, then give me a good wallop."
"Fine I will," said Wheatley.
"Go ahead,: said AMS.
Wheatley looked at AMS and tried to move, "Ok, just so you know, I am a very technical fighter, so I am going to need you to turn around." AMS them football kicked (soccer for the Americans) Wheatley out the door, "AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!"
AMS dusted off his hands and headed back to the table, "Like I said, perfectly designed moron. Now then on to the next applicant."
