Me: I'm totally excited.

Samus: Why?

Me: I don't really know…Maybe it's because of the 10th fight of death by brawling!

Samus: What does that have to do with Craziness Abounds II?

Me: I can't contain my excitement. On with the story! By the way this chapter gets really emotional.

Samus's attention was instantly raised when Mario said Bowser had Phazon. Samus shot in the air several times. Then she whistled. Everybody listened. Before Samus spoke, there was a high pitched roar. Samus looked up to see Ridley. He was barely recognizable. He had huge, red eyes. His teeth were larger than ever before. He was covered in armor except his almost unchanged head. His tail was oozing blackness of sorts. He almost looked like a more horrible version of Meta Ridley. Ridley grabbed Samus and Meta Knight and held them. He roared and was about to kill them when Yeldir roared. His roar was far deeper and smoother. Yeldir breathed blue fire and it burned Ridley very badly. Ridley turned and saw Yeldir. He screeched and slashed at Yeldir. Yeldir, being faster, retaliated by shoving Ridley into smash mansion, knocking a section of it off. Yeldir breathed more blue fire. Ridley breathed out a large, solid fireball. Yeldir attempted to do the same, but he couldn't breath out solids. Yeldir was hit with the solid fireball, and Ridley whipped him with his tail. Ridley was bigger, and he pinned Yeldir down. Yeldir's mouth was pinned close. Ridley was punched by an enraged Master and Crazy Hand, who may have lost all their magical power, but not their physical power. Ridley was knocked nearly unconscious, and Yeldir looked down at his father, and just said "Tsk tsk tsk." Yeldir roared and breathed out an insane amount of fire. Suddenly, the blackness leaking from his tail spread all across Ridley's body. Ridley broke into several shadow bugs. Yeldir flew back. Everyone was surprised.

"Wow" Master Hand said. "I think we all know what happened-"

"YEAAHHHH!" Crazy Hand screeched. "CLEEEEARLY, SHADOW BUGS HAVE COME TOOOOO, UH, TOOOOO, TOOOOO AVENGE TABUU!" Everyone was awed. That wasn't even remotely possible. Everyone knew Bowser and his gang were behind it. The number one rule of smash bros was to never, ever, ever, argue with the Crazy Hand.

Suddenly Samus rolled into her morph ball and rolled back. Bowser landed in her place. (By the way, if you're unsure of Bowser's size, he's 14 feet, about 2.2 times Samus's size and he's 1 ton.) He stared at the smashers with angry eyes. He stared at Yeldir. The blue dinosaur was also ready to fight. Bowser still had a grudge after Yeldir crushed him and his 9 kids, and the Koopa troop. Suddenly, Ganondork ran out and ran to Bowser, ignoring everyone. He had burn marks from the chains of light. The chains of light were still wrapped around his wrists, but were broken. Bowser and Ganondorf said a spell, but it appeared to do nothing. Suddenly, Bowser roared and raised his arms, which were running with electricity. The electricity shot everywhere in the air. Bowser Jr, wearing a small crown, came out, followed by Ridley, wearing a crown as well. Wolf followed with a new, golden blaster. The Koopalings came out, all in silver robes. They all stood by Bowser. All the smashers, though confused, were ready to fight. Bowser just smiled and said "Every king…needs a queen."

Mario, with years of experience knew what he meant. He quickly ran to get in front of Peach. Everyone else didn't get it. Bowser saw what Mario did and ordered "Ridley, get her." Ridley did so and flew towards Peach. Mario was clearly no match, but nevertheless stood strong. Before Ridley could connect with Mario and Peach, Yeldir flew with lightning speed and knocked Ridley away. Yeldir smacked Ridley and hit him several times before using his blue fire to burn Ridley. Ridley became enraged and attempted to stab Yeldir with his pointy tail. Yeldir took off and Ridley grabbed a piece of building to hit Yeldir over the head. It knocked him out.

Ridley proceeded to find Peach. Mario, who was standing in front, didn't notice his right fist; it began to smoke while it was clenched. Soon, all of a sudden, as Ridley approached, Mario's hand exploded in a huge fireball, about the size of Kirby. Mario, relying on instincts, threw the fireball at Ridley, burning him and hurting him badly. "Oh no" Bowser muttered. "The prophesy has come true…"

Bowser as a baby…

"Lord Bowser" said Kamek, Bowser's parent after Morton the first's death. Bowser was practicing his fire breath. It wasn't going well and every time he sneezed, he burned his tissue.

"What is it, Kamek?" Bowser asked.

"There's another part to the prophecy" Kamek said. "The fated plumbers will, in defense of a loved one, summon a large essence of their power at once. Luckily they don't know it yet."

"I want a toy" Bowser whined. "Now!"

"Not now, lord Bowser" Kamek said.

"Please?!" Bowser whined again. "I'll be your best friend."

Back to present

Bowser became worried. "Ridley. Do it now!" Bower said. Ridley shoved Mario aside and grabbed Peach. Wolf and Bowser Jr. grabbed Zelda. Link wasn't fast enough to catch up to them. Bowser grabbed them, and leaped in the air. Everyone almost got them, but Bowser used his dark magic to make him and the captives, and the other baddies disappear.

Everyone was worried. They didn't know where Bowser was. Mewtwo, who was dangerously upset over the whole Master Hand issue, detected Bowser, who he believed was nearby. Lucario also believed so too. So Master Hand sent a few smashers who could go on Yeldir's back. Mario, Samus, Link, Fox were chosen. Meta Knight also wanted to go as well. Master Hand was reluctant, but respected Meta Knight, and knew he wanted to go for the right reasons. Nobody else could go because, remember, Yeldir was small. The night before, the smashers that were going on this trip laid out beneath the stars. One star, the nearest star, was so bright, nobody could look at it. This night, it was very big. It seemed strange. Samus tried to look at it closely, but it wasn't close enough. That night seemed perfect, so Samus switched to her telescope visor. She gasped at what she saw. "What is it Samus?" Meta Knight asked.

"It's…Bowser's fortress" Samus said quietly. "There's where we gotta go." All the other smashers that were there agreed. Meta Knight and Samus were lying next to each other. Meta Knight fell asleep, but Samus was worried. "Meta Knight, Meta Knight" Samus coaxed Meta Knight. Meta Knight woke up.

"What is it?" Meta Knight asked, and he sounded tired.

"I'm worried Meta Knight" Samus said.

"Well, don't worry, we'll all help" Meta Knight assured Samus.

"It's just that, well, Ridley is tough now, tougher than I remember. What if I can't beat him?"

"You will. I'll be at your side. You can't beat him with no sleep, so good night."

"Good night Meta Knight." Samus rolled over and fell asleep. Little did she know that each of the traveling smashers had a dream, at the very same time, except for Mario, who was ready for a chance to own Bowser, so he wasn't worried at all. And Meta Knight wasn't worried at all. He never was. But Samus and Fox were.

Samus's dream:

"No, no Ridley. No! Don't do it! Take me instead." Samus was defenseless with no suit. She watched in horror as Meta Knight was in Ridley's claws, unconscious, battered, and bruised. He had tried to fight off Ridley who tore off Samus's power suit. It wasn't strong enough. Ridley looked at Samus, with hungry eyes.

"Why should I spare this little ball and kill you instead?" Ridley asked.

"Because I, I, I, l-love-NOOOO!" Samus screamed when Ridley, not caring, ripped off Meta Knight's mask, and opened his gigantic mouth, and put the knight inside.

Fox's dream:

Fox and Wolf stared each other down. Wolf held his golden blaster to Fox. Fox pointed his. He also kept his reflector near, just in case Wolf shot first. Fox kept staring Wolf down, until he saw his dad, James, who was killed by Wolf. Fox saw this in a vision of sorts. He saw his very last breath. Fox began to cry and Wolf just seemed confused. "What Foxy?" Wolf asked. Fox didn't answer and threw down his blaster so hard the floor cracked. Fox looked at Wolf with Fury, and ran at him. Wolf smirked, and shot his blaster several times, knocking Fox to the ground. Wolf whistled, and a Magikoopa appeared, saying a spell, and it buried Fox in an open grave entitled "James."

Back to reality:

Fox and Samus woke up in a cold sweat. Samus couldn't believe her dream. Neither could Fox. Both of them had no time to ponder their dream. They took food that Master Hand was giving. It was in a small bag, but there was a lot of food in there. Samus, Fox, and Mario boarded Yeldir, except for Meta Knight, who knelt down to Kirby. "Kirby" Meta Knight began. "I just want to say that, well, the reason I attacked you before, you know, a long time ago was because, well, I needed to test you. I think of you as, well, like a son or favorite student. I knew you were unprepared to fight Nightmare (sorry, I don't know the spelling)." Kirby looked at Meta Knight, who was struggling to keep his eyes from turning orange or dark blue.

"Poyo?" Kirby asked. Meta Knight looked at his feet.

"I tell you this because I want you to know that-" Meta Knight was interrupted by an impatient Fox.

"HEY! We have to go. Hurry it up!" Fox yelled at Meta Knight.

"I'm having a moment!" Meta Knight responded. He took a deep breath, and continued from where he left off. "I tell you this because I want you to know that I only want to go fight Bowser for you, and for the smashers. I'd die to protect you Kirby." Meta Knight looked back to Kirby, and looked at him in the eyes. "But I won't. I'll be back." Meta Knight used his dimensional cape and appeared on Yeldir's back. Yeldir sailed off towards the bright star.
