Author's Notes: Well here we are again. I really need reviews for this and I'm not sure if I'll continue this if I don't get any. Anyway, who dunnit? The polls are now open and I want to know who do you think did it? Thanks to 4lex2316 for reviewing for the previous chapter. Oh and if you check for updates of this story you might not see me for abut a week because i'll be in Spain.

On with the story!

CHAPTER 4

Everybody watching the battle on the smash-a-tron 2000 giant screen silent for about half a second before pandemonium broke out. Everybody was screaming and shouting except one person in the shadows (No I won't tell you who it is because that kind of kills the story).

"What if I'm next?"

"What the bloody hell happened?!"

"Who did it?" These we're the three main questions which seemed to circulate within the crowd.

"Everybody calm down!" Master Hand was trying in vain to recapture the attention of the smashers. Suddenly there was a huge bang and everybody stared at Crazy Hand who had set off some explosives in the corner.

"Back to you brother." Crazy Hand said having got the smashers to shut up.

"Right everybody don't worry, when you die here or you're fatally wounded you'll turn into a trophy so you can be revived." There was a poof and Master Hand disappeared and reappeared on Final Destination. He scooped up the two trophies and teleported back into the room of smashers placing them down on the floor. He then proceeded to tap the base of each and waited (for the few people who don't know, if you touch the base the person comes back to life). But nothing happened. The sane Hand frowned (I don't know how) while Crazy Hand started poking Red in the ribs.

"This is not meant to happen... Something is wrong."

"Wheeeeeeeee! Brother, maybe the lack of change in matter is due to dark energy fields around the subject trophy" Everbody stared at Crazy Hand. Since when had he been so smart?

"Are you alright brother?" Master Hand inquired.

"I'm a little cookie, short and stout..."

"He's fine but clearly there is something wrong with the trophies. I will have to put all of our resources into finding out the answer."

"Aren't you forgetting something?" Somebody from the assembled Smasher piped up.

"Oh yes the murderer ok we'll devise a special elite team of smashers to help us find our culprit... Only the smartest smashers will be in it so... WARIO, PEACH, CRAZY HAND you three ,are the team." There was a sudden outburst from the crowd. "Alright then" the hand continued "in reflection that's not the best idea so LUCARIO, FALCO, META KNIGHT you three are our new team." The trio groaned, it was their first night there at the tournament and already they were being asked to make a commitment that would probably keep them up every night. "Did I mention that each of you get a free pass to the quarter final matches if you agree.."

"I'm in"

"Lets go"

"Screw honour, I'm in it to win it"

"I'll take that as a yes, the rest of you, the tournament starts tomorrow the matches will be Link against Samus, Toon Link against Zelda and Wolf against Fox. Are there any questions?"

"Yeah, why don't we get passes to the quarter finals?"

"Because you guys are a load of brainless idiots" Crazy Hand replied. Normally the smashers would have beaten up anybody who said that but this was Crazy Hand, he wasn't entirely sane. But mostly because they were afraid of getting beaten up, they didn't attack.

"The three of you that I requested to join the team stay behind and before the rest of you start complaining, the matches will be on despite the murders because if we stop the brawls, our ratings will go down and you guys will have to get a job to feed yourselves. Is that clear?" There were moans from the smashers before Crazy Hand yelled.

"Just go to bed." And everybody did.

"Honestly" thought Master Hand "What do they see in him?"

The three man squad assembled around Master Hand. "Right, you three have been elected to find out who the culprit is. This means that you have to stay up every night until you find it. I don't care if you get tried either, you hade the rest of the day to rest because you don't have any fights until much later in the tournament, understand? Now find out or we'll lose ratings." And with that the hand left and three chosen three just stared incredulously.

"Right" Falco said "Ok we need to make sure if anybody is sneaking around at night. Ok we'll split up, Lucario you can go down to the cellars, Meta Knight you go into the attic and I'll patrol the corridor to make sure that nobody gets out of their room. The other two nodded their heads reluctantly and set off to where they were supposed to go.

Author's notes: well this was unexpected, Lucario, Falco and meta knight all working together to solve the case. What will they find? Find out in the next update but I will be in Spain so you might have to wait. In the mean time send in your reviews. I might be able to update but I'm not sure. I'll let destiny decide.

See ya
