Not much to say here... Who will win?

Chapter 10- The Finale

Where 'The Last Stand' left off...

Meta Knight's sword collided with Lucario's fist. Lucario easily glanced his sword off and started jabbing at him, putting the knight on the defensive. Suddenly, Lucario thrust a particularly powerful fist at Meta Knight. He only barely sidestepped the blow, only to be met with Lucario's foot. Meta Knight was sent rolling across the floor and into a pile of debris. The debris collapsed on him, and all went black.

Meta Knight awoke what felt like hours later.

...No, he could still hear Lucario cackling victoriously. 'Typical gloating laugh...' Meta Knight rolled his eyes. Meta Knight burst out of the debris and thrust his sword at Lucario.

"What?" Lucario turned barely in time to avoid Meta Knight's sword. "How did you survive?" He asked.

"Some rocks fell on me. You think that would kill me?" The knight lunged past Lucario, swiftly recovering his sword and U-turning back at Lucario, sword swinging madly.

"You fool! You think careless techniques like that would work on me?" Lucario laughed. "Wait, what the-?" Meta Knight's sword slashed Lucario swiftly across the top of his nose. Blood bubbled out of the wound, and Lucario fell to the ground, clutching his nose. "...It did work..." Lucario regained his figure and lunged for Meta Knight again. Meta Knight had the upper hand now. He sidestepped and sent another slash at Lucario. It connected. 'Yes!' Meta Knight cheered inwardly. Suddenly, Lucario's figure distorted into nothing. "Say hi to Mr. Game & Watch for me!" Lucario cried as he slammed his fully charged aura fist into Meta Knight. Meta Knight slammed into a wall and fell limp on the floor. Lucario started to turn, when a flash of gold caught his eye. He didn't turn fast enough, however, as Ike's sword had already collided with him. Lucario was sent flying. He busted out the window, and flew into the courtyard of the mansion.

Ike stumbled over to where Meta Knight lay. He felt him. 'No!' Ike's stomach flipped. 'He's already dead...' "He killed Meta Knight... Lucario killed him..."

"I'll take care of Lucario."

"R.O.B. ..." Ike looked to the malfunctioned robot. "Give him hell." Ike collapsed to the ground next to Meta Knight.

"Ike? It can't be..."R.O.B. shuffled to Ike. Just as he thought. Ike was dead. He used too much energy. The robot advanced to the front door of the mansion and opened it, stepping out into the cool sunlight of the daytime. A few paces ahead of him lay Lucario, a pool of blood surrounding him. "Lucario, you're dying."

"No shit, you piece of scrap. Now tell me something I don't know!" He coughed up blood, and his head collapsed. He raised his head up again, looking to the robot. "WHY DO YOU ALWAYS COME BACK TO HAUNT ME?" Lucario shot up and attacked R.O.B. . R.O.B. slid to the side and slammed Lucario roughly in the side. Lucario rolled to the ground and lay there.

"Lucario, you're done. End this."

"Not without you..." Lucario once again clumsily stood to his feet and charged for R.O.B. . This time, R.O.B. simply sidestepped, and Lucario fell to the ground. "Fight me, you son of a bitch..." Lucario stood up yet again. "FIGHT ME!!!"

"Tenacious, aren't you?"

"FUCK YOU!!!" Lucario charged for R.O.B. "I'll FUCKING KILL YOU!!!" Lucario ran clumsily towards R.O.B. . R.O.B. shot his fist out as Lucario neared him.

"Guhh!" Blood bubbled out of Lucario's mouth, and soon began to pour in a steady flow. Lucario looked down to see that R.O.B.'s fist had impaled him directly through the heart. "D-damn it..." Lucario fell limp onto R.O.B.'s still outstretched arm, his glazed over eyes staring at nothing. R.O.B. brought back his fist and threw Lucario's bloodied body to the ground. He shuffled back into the mansion, where Ike lay with Meta Knight, both dead.

"I'm only sorry I hadn't stopped him when I had the chance..." R.O.B. shuffled back out the mansion door, and began the long journey back to civilization.

Epilogue

R.O.B. shuffled into a town. It had been three months since Lucario had been killed, and R.O.B. had departed back to civilization. R.O.B. made his way into the nearest bar, and sat down at a chair. Of course, R.O.B. never came to bars for drinks. That would fry his mainframe. He simply came for rest.

"Hey!" A man began making his way towards R.O.B. . "Aren't you that robot from that Smash Bros. Mansion? I haven't heard anything of that place for quite a while!"

"Have you ever wondered why you haven't heard anything of it?"

"Well, yes, somewhat."

"Have a seat.. I have a story to tell you..."
