Super Smash Brothers!
Chapter III: Warrior vs Star Warrior
Kirby was sitting on the kitchen floor gorging himself on donuts when Fox entered the kitchen.
"Kirby, sorry to interrupt your meal, but Link wants to have a Training match against you." Fox informed the puff.
"Poyo?" Kirby replied, with a confused look.
"Link," said Fox. "the newcomer? Green? Long ears? Sword?"
Kirby sat there and stared at him.
"You just met him a few hours earlier."
"Oh! Poyo!" Kirby exclaimed. He stuffed a few donuts in down his bottomless pit of a belly and raced off toward the Training room.
---------------------------------------
Link was surprised to see everyone coming into the Training room. He didn't think all of them would turn up just to see his first battle.
Mario entered the room. "Link, how have you enjoyed your-a stay here at the-a Mansion?" he asked.
"I haven't done much yet..." Link answered. He would only talk to Mario.
"I'll be-a rooting for you!" Mario assured him. "I'm-a sure you'll do-a fine."
Jigglypuff entered the room. She wore a green string tied around her head, and carried pom-poms. "Jiggly-PUFF!" she said with a smile, spinning around twice.
Next, Captain Falcon stepped in. He ignored Link and stood at a wall, his hands in his pockets.
Yoshi and Pikachu walked-and scurried-in. "Yoshi!" the verdant dino said kindly. "Pika Pi-ka!" said the bright mouse.
Samus walked in next. "Have fun," she told the Hylian.
Donkey Kong came behind her. He gave Link a thumbs-up.
Lastly, Link's opponent arrived. Fox entered, follow by the puffball.
"Is everyone here?" asked Mario. "Good. Link and Kirby, take-a your-a proper positions."
The warrior and puff jumped down onto the steel floor beneath the balcony.
"Puff, puff, Jiggly-Puff!" Jigglypuff cheered.
"Okay...how about-a Hyrule Castle?"
Link nodded, staring Kirby down.
"Okay-a then! Are you ready?"
The Hylian nodded again.
Mario pressed a red button labeled: "START" on the console. That voice once again said, "Ready? GO!" and the two Smashers began.
"That voice..." said Mario to himself. "It's..It's him..."
---------------------------
Link had already gotten close to the pink ball and swung his mighty sword at the Star Warrior.
Kirby ducked and-using his rubbery body-scrunched himself low enough for the Hylian to miss. After Link pulled back the Master Sword, a powerful suction overtook him. He felt himself viciously pulled toward his small opponent, and then darkness. Seconds later, he was out of the shade, laying on the roof of the stone castle.
He got up, shaking his head. Kirby was directly in front of him, but there was something different about the creature. He was now clad in a green hat, similar to his own. He brandished a sword as well.
Link was vexed."What in the world..."
Taking hold of the opportunity, Kirby ran at Link, his sword gripped tightly in what he called a hand. A battle cry issued from his mouth, and a look of fierceness adorned his face. He swung at the boy, but his sword's blade was met with the Master Sword's, and the two warriors attempted to force the other's down.
Link placed his shield on his back. He had a plan. He reached in his pocket and removed the blue hookshot from it. Pointing the weapon at the puffball, he shot the sharp metal head at him.
It didn't work. As soon as Kirby would have met the point, he contorted his body to move sideways, making him tall and skinny. When the chain retracted, he fixed his form and grabbed hold of it, much to the Hylian hero's dismay. Kirby smiled, and started spinning very fast.
After a split second he sent Link flying off the side of the castle roof. Thinking quickly, the green teen shot his hookshot at the building's side. It retracted and pulled him back to the stage. What Link saw when he climbed up, though, meant trouble.
Kirby held a small bow, a glowing arrow charged fully in it. "He he he," he chuckled as he let the Light Arrow loose and it sped toward his opponent.
He can copy my bow, too? Link thought. Drat!
Fortunately, he brought his shield before him to block the arrow.
This guy's strong! Link thought. Stronger than I though he'd be!
He heard a small item hit the ground near his feet. He glanced down to see a Poke Ball.
"Perfect!" he said, out loud this time. He snagged the ball from the ground and chucked it toward Kirby, who ran for cover.
A brilliant flash of light expanded out of the device, causing Link to cover his eyes.
"Goldeen Goldeen Goldeen," came a voice.
As the light faded, Link looked onward as a white and red goldfish flopped around on the castle's roof. He sweatdropped as Kirby came out and laughed.
"I'm gonna lose to this thing," he said glumly. "No! I can't! I won't! It's time to show these guys how strong I am!"
As Kirby came charging again, Link did as well, the Master Sword drawn. Kirby held his before him. Link smirked, and pulled out a black sphere. A bomb! He tossed the lit bomb at the puffball, who was unable to dodge. He was sent flying, a smoking puffball. He landed on his head, a yellow star exiting his body. His hat and sword disappeared.
As the star warrior got up and rubbed his head, Link spotted a second bomb on the ground before him. He snatched this one up again, but was startled as it buzzed to life in his hands. He turned over and noticed that it had two small eyes and legs.
He volleyed the living bomb at his adversary, but it detonated before it reached him. Using the smokescreen provided by the explosion, Link dashed away and ducked behind a tower. The star warrior, confused, only stood gazing around him. He was hit on mark with a fully charged Light arrow and sent away once again.
Rescuing himself, he intook some air, inflating himself. Just as he neared the ground a miniature tornado formed out of nowhere, spinning the puffball around and blowing him over the edge.
"Now's my chance!" said Link, and he drew his mighty sword. He ran as swiftly as he could to the edge, hopped off, and pointed his blade downward, stabbing poor Kirby, crushing his chances of performing a full recovery. The star warrior tumbled down, into the depths below the castle/battlefield.
"GAME!" bellowed the voice.
--------------------------------
Kirby sat tight on his very own bed, deep in the mansion's infirmary ward. He wasn't hurt too bad, just a bruise to the head. Fortunately, the Training room changes certain things, so the Master Sword's tip was not sharp enough to pierce skin.
"He'll be alright, Link," said Fox, placing a cross of band-aids on the young puffball's temple.
"Poyo..." Kirby groaned. He gazed upward and smiled. He liked Link.
Link smiled back. The little puffball had proved he was strong; a formidable opponent for Link. Link would look forward to more battles like this.
Later, in the living room, everyone had assembled there, to congratulate the newcomer.
"Way to go, Link," commended Samus, who shook hands with the warrior. Though hard to acknowledge by the others, Link could see her wink at him from behind her visor.
Mario wore a smile as he addressed all the smashers present. "Welcome, Link, to the-a team. You are now an honorary-a Super Smash Brother!"
A storm of applause followed the welcome. Fox spoke up, "But remember, the real battles will be much more difficult and dangerous. Master Hand will not cut anyone any slack, no matter how long they've been a Smasher."
Link nodded in understanding. C. Falcon placed a hand on his shoulder. "So, now that the business is over, how 'bout a round of Mario Kart in the arcade room?"
"Sure..." Link piped up, speaking to someone besides Mario for the first time. He and CF scurried off upstairs. All the others went there ways. Mario remained there. He pressed an invisible button on the wall near him, and his body faded away.
------------------------------------------------------
Yeah, so Mario has his accent now. It seemed weird writing him without it.
And what I meant by including other chars like Ganondorf or Bowser, I meant they will be fighting AGAINST the Smashers, not with them.
Till we meet again!
