The First Smash
Chapter 7: Smash On!
All 12 Smashers appeared in the entrance room, where their adventures had begun. The Master Hand also appeared there, though he was lying on the ground. When he slowly started to rise back into the air, the fighters watched him carefully in case he tried to attack again.
The Master Hand faced them and spoke. "Yes…very good. That was a fine final battle, just as I should have been expecting. You know, I originally planned this tournament to see which of you was strongest and most worthy of joining future tournaments. However, in just the first tournament, you have showed me that you all are strong in your own ways. The way you did your best and became friends outside of battle…the way Donkey Kong, Samus, and Pikachu worked together and ensured the safety of one another…the way everyone fought together while facing me…I have learned something important from all this. Strength is not the most important part of battling-with the right skill, luck, and faith in your own abilities, any one of you can win! So, the tournament has ended, and I declare the winner…"
The Smashers waited in anticipation to hear the winner.
"…all of you! You did so well, you are all winners! Welcome to Super Smash Bros., everyone! I'll hold more tournaments in the future and open some events where you can fight one another and face Metal Mario, the Race to the Finish stage, the Fighting Polygon Team, and myself again, plus an area for target practice and another for platform boarding practice. Stay as long as you like and challenge any of the events whenever you like! Maybe someday I'll recruit more fighters and add more events, but for now, enjoy yourselves, and congratulations!"
All the fighters cheered, very happy at this outcome.
"Now that the tournament has ended in victory for everyone, let's celebrate with a feast!"
"Uh-oh," Kirby said softly as the Master Hand went over to the small room and opened the door to find it empty.
"HEY! What happened to all the food I had in here?" the Master Hand exclaimed.
All the fighters looked at one another, then at Yoshi, Kirby, and DK. DK suddenly took out a banana he'd been carrying that he had forgotten about, the last piece of food left! Yoshi and Kirby tackled him, also wanting the banana. The others tried to stop the fight and soon everyone was involved in a free-for-all.
The Master Hand looked on and sighed. "Well, looks like my battling events will be even more successful than I planned." Though, once the fighters had settled this battle, they would be friends again and would enjoy spending time here at the stadium…and thus, Super Smash Bros. was born.
The End
I hope you enjoyed reading this story as much as I enjoyed writing it! Super Smash Bros. was the very first video game I played and has been a favorite ever since.
