I am Back. Too bad nobody's commented on the shadow. Tsk tsk.

I thought some of you might have noticed by now…

ANYWAYS! this shadow…is going to be a new smasher. I would love to see how you people respond.

Anyhoo, let's get started, and finish this rather…wet mess.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Zelda was walking down hallways, after casting Nayru's love. Now she could walk without getting wet.

Master Hand came shooting down the hallways, trying desperately to get away from something. Zelda could hear a cloud of snickers and laughter follow him.

"That…Voice…I wonder…" Zelda thought out loud. She ran after Master Hand, and slowly gained on him, as he was tiring out.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Mario, Link, and Luigi were in water that was four feet deep, and Mario was floating because he was too short to touch the bottom.

"Judging by the rush of water, most of it's coming out of here." Link stated.

"Then we just have to get in there and fix it!" Luigi said.

Right as he said this, Sonic drifted down the staircase river, and swirled in the water next to them. He had x's in his eyes.

"A-wake up!" Mario said. He swam over to sonic, and slapped him until he was conscious. Sonic choked up a lot of water, and then looked at the three.

"What happened?" He asked looking around.

"We were about to find out, when you floated along." Link said.

"Oh…I remember seeing Bowser shoot by on a bed…but that was up on the third floor."

"That would explain him landing on us." Luigi said.

"Ouch." Sonic said.

"Anyways, you think you could-a help us fix whatever happened?" Mario asked hopefully.

"Naa…I wouldn't be any help…Besides, I HATE water." Sonic said.

"Sorry to hear that…" Luigi said. "Well, we'll be back in a bit, then. Hey, Link?" Luigi asked.

"Yeah?"

"I don't think we can get down there because of the current coming out. You'll have to drag us down there."

"I figured." Link said. "Ok…You two hold on tight, because here we go!" Mario and Luigi jumped onto Link back, and Link began going under.

"Wait!" Sonic yelled. "I don't know how much of a use I'll be, but I'll go!"

"Then hop on." Link said. Sonic hopped onto his back, but another interruption kept the from going in.

The unconscious bodies of the wet bandits shot out of the hole like cannon balls, the current was so fast, and Link and his partners were knocked backwards. Meta Knight followed, but he was still conscious, and he flew about the room after uncurling in midair. He flew down in front of Link, and landed in the water.

"Do you four plan on going down there?" He asked.

"Yes, we have to-a fix the pipes!" Mario said determinedly.

"Then I may as well come along. The floor below is cracked because of something beneath it. I had to rescue the little ones first, but now that I am not occupied…"

SHING

Meta Knight drew his sword, and cut the water in front of him.

"…whatever it is will be sorry."

"The midgets will be ok, drifting about, right?" Link asked.

"They will. They are floating face up, and they didn't have any time to inhale any water. We must hurry, before the beast breaks free and attacks!" Meta Knight said urgently.

"Right, well, grab on. This'll be a rough entry." Link said.

Meta Knight grabbed Link's back, and Link walked down the stairs into the bottom floor of the basement. The current was really strong, and it would have pushed them all back out, if it wasn't for Link's iron boots.

A good look about the room showed it was about as big as a basketball stadium, with various pipes, electrical wires, and other things.

Currently, the lights were off, and various silhouettes of objects floated about in the current. Everybody struggled to hold onto Link as he braved the current, and walked out into the blackness in the huge room.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

"Din's Fire!" Zelda yelled. She created a wall of fire in front of Master hand, and he bounced off it and into the knee deep water.

"Save me!" He cried desperately.

"…Midna, it's good to see you again, but when the heck did you sneak in?" Zelda asked nothing in particular.

"Who ARE you talking to?" Master hand asked incredulously.

He screamed and jumped away when his shadow spoke.

"It would appear I have been found out…" The mischievous voice replied smugly.

A little figure popped loose from Master Hand's shadow, and solidified in midair.

The little person was about two feet tall, if she were standing on the ground. Midna wore a mask with strange runs on it that covered her head sort of like a headband, but the front had a part that covered almost all of her head, and her left eye. Her eyes were orange, but you could only see her right eye, as her left was covered by the odd grey mask. She had a tiny nose that was barely more than a rounded bump, and her mouth was in a smile at the moment. Her body was mainly a creamy black color, but her upper left right chest, and the lower part of her face was white. Her right leg was also white, below the knee. She had orange hair with a green ribbon tying the ends of her hair together.

"Well, how nice to meet you…Master Hand, was it?" Midna asked, smiling and showing tiny tapered fangs on her upper jaw.

"Y-yes, that is me. I guess it's nice to meet you two."

"Let me properly introduce you two. Midna, this is Master Hand, my boss, and Master Hand, this is Midna, the Twilight Princess." Zelda said.

"Oh, now I know who you are!" Master Hand said.

"I was hoping you might." Midna said.

"Um, do you have a particular reason for following me around all day? Forgive me if I am skittish, as I thought I was being followed by a demon all day…" Master hand said.

"Well, I'm not a demon, but I am sorta close to that…But yes, I do have a specific reason to be here. I was wondering if you were still…"

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

"I don't see anything." Link said.

"Me either!" Mario said.

"How are we talking and breathing underwater?" Luigi asked.

"Plot hole, most likely." Meta Knight said knowingly.

"Does it matter?" Sonic asked. "I'm just happy I don't have to breathe in a bubble every five seconds!"

BUMP

"Ok, I felt that one." Links said warily.

"That would be the monster." Meta Knight said.

"Any idea what it is?" Sonic asked.

"No, it has yet to show." Meta Knight said.

"The current's getting stronger…" Luigi grunted.

"Mamma mia!" Mario cried.

Bump

Bump

Bump

BOOOOOOOM!

The pavement in front of them blew outward, and Link had to step back to avoid getting everybody smashed by stone.

Ten clear, jelly like tentacles came out of the mud, and an eyeball floated up the middle of one, like it was a tube.

"AH!" Sonic bubbled.

"…Morpheel!" Link said grimly.

"We can beat him, yes?" Meta Knight asked.

"I could handle it myself, but if you guys want to help, I won't stop you!" Link said.

He dropped everybody, but the current stopped!

"What…? Oh no!" Luigi yelled. He pointed at the staircase, and it was blocked by the debris!

"Let's get this-a show going!" Mario said, swimming at the eel.

Link grabbed Mario with the clawshot again, and pulled him back.

"Let me do this first." Links said. He shot his clawshot at the eye, and pulled it right out of the jelly!

He reeled it in, and Meta Knight instantly slashed at it at sonic speed. Sonic beat up on it with punches and kicks, and Mario and Luigi both charged up their smash attacks.

"Thunderhand!"

"Firebrand!" They cried.

Mario's fireball fizzled out, but Luigi's blast of electricity made the eye shoot away like a cannon ball, and he accidentally shocked everybody else too.

"Ooops, sorry!" Luigi apologized sheepishly.

The eye floated back into the jelly tentacles, and the tentacles receded into the mud.

"Here it comes…!" Link yelled.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

"…Hiring?" Midna asked.

"Oh, you mean you want to join the smashers?" Master hand asked.

"Yes."

"Well! What an honor! Yes, I would love for you to join, but my paperwork is probably all soggy now. I'll have to register you later, but welcome!" Master hand said exuberantly.

"Nice! Now…What do we do about this water?" Midna asked.

"That would be a good thing to do. We need to get rid of this water." Zelda said.

"Where are Mario and Luigi?" Master hand asked.

"Them?" Midna said. "They're downstairs with Link, Meta Knight and Sonic."

"How do you know?" Zelda said.

"I paid attention to things while riding Master hand around." She said in an annoying I-know-it-all voice.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

The water shockwaves knocked everybody off balance, and a HUGE eel shaped body with an anemone shaped head. The mouth had fleshy flaps that sucked water in like a vacuum, and it shot out of the mud, and way into the upper parts of the room.

The Morpheel was about as long as four busses, and just as thick as one.

"I hope you people can swim fast, because I'm not waiting!" Link said. He crouched, and rocketed off into the darkness, after the boss.

Meta Knight didn't say anything, but sprouted his wings, and took off after him, at perhaps an even faster speed.

Mario and Luigi linked arms, and Sonic held onto their shoulders while the two plumbers took off at a reasonably fast speed.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

"They're right down there." Midna pointed at a flooded staircase.

"Really? I hope they don't drown." Master hand said.

"We should help these smashers first…" Zelda said. She looked at the unconscious wet bandits floating about.

"These guys will have a LOT of explaining to do. I'll take these guys to the infirmary, but I leave you two responsible for finding somebody that can remove these rocks." Master hand said. He snapped his fingers, and made the wet bandits, and himself, disappear.

"Well, it looks like we're working together once again." Zelda said happily.

"It's been far too long…" Midna said. "By the way, do you know of anybody that could help? I suggest we get about three people, each of them at least very strong, or with some type of explosive."

"As good an idea as any. Wario fits the strong part. We could get Samus here, and maybe that new Matt guy." Zelda said.

"Ok! Let's find them!" Midna said. They both wet up the stairs hurriedly, and went to look for help.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Link still had the double clawshots from his most recent adventure, so he used that to his full advantage. He fired his right claw at the eel's eye, and his other claw at the Mario brothers and Sonic. Meta Knight caught the claw aimed at the eye, because it missed, and attached it to a fin, and Link pulled himself and the other three over to the eel's back.

"Now what do we do?" Luigi asked.

"Find the eye, and attack it with your best available attack!" Link said. "The eye should be close to the head region, right below one of the tentacles. Be careful."

"Of course!" Sonic said. He took off, running along the back of the eel towards the head.

"Ok, See you guys at the head!" Meta Knight said. He swam off again.

"Let's-a go!" Mario said.

"Oy yea!" Luigi said.

Luigi and Mario slowly climbed the eel by grabbing its scales, and using them as a ladder.

Link, who was ahead, grabbed them with both of his clawshots, and pulled them along with him as he walked on the eel's back. Sonic slipped off, so Link used his left claw shot to grab him, and pull him back up.

"Look out!" Luigi yelled.

Everybody looked forward, only to see a mess of pipes scraping the back of the eel. They dived to the sides, and off of the eel to avoid getting run through on one of the pipes. Link removed his iron boots to quit sinking, and he grabbed Mario, Luigi, and Sonic with his clawshots as they fell, and pulled them back up. He took a clean shot at Morpheel's eye, and pulled himself, along with his four partners, over to the eye.

Link dropped one of his clawshots to pull out his sword, and he repeatedly stabbed the eye as Mario and Sonic punched and kicked. They jumped away as Luigi blasted the eye with a huge blast of electricity, and Link used his remaining clawshot to pull himself back over.

"Now what do we do?" Sonic asked as he and the Mario brothers sank to the bottom of the room.

"We find the other clawshot!" Luigi said determinedly.

"There it is-a!" Mario pointed.

It was sinking into the hole the Morpheel came out of!

Luigi used his green missile attack and he luckily got a misfire. He didn't catch on fire, but he shot like a torpedo, and he caught the clawshot before it fell out of reach.

Luigi shot it at the Morpheel's eye, and he got lucky again! It hit, and stuck. Link was swimming away, because he had accidentally dropped his sword when the eel bucked.

Luigi hit the eye, and reeled himself in, but he accidentally charged his Thunderhand. A big glowing surge of lightning went down the chain, through the claw, and into the eel's eye!

The eye rolled wildly as the eel sank, and it finally rested on the pavement of the floor below. The water started leaking as the hole drained, and the eel turned black and exploded into antimatter particles.

"Well, good job, Luigi!" Link said. He started clapping.

"Thanks! You all did well too!" Luigi said, as he tossed the clawshot back to Link.

"Now, what do we-a do?" Mario asked.

"Well, maybe the eel left something behind. Let's look about for anything unfamiliar." Meta Knight said.

"Where were you the whole time?" Link asked.

"I couldn't swim fast enough…" Meta Knight replied shamefully.

"That's ok, but if you need help, just ask for it." Sonic said. "No use in doing things yourself, when you can get help!"

"I understand. I will make sure to ask next time." Meta Knight said, making his wings disappear.

"Now…How-a do we get out?" Mario asked.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

"Ahh!" The five of them yelled as the debris around the staircase blew in. The five ducked as stuff flew overhead.

Matt, Samus, and Wario walked in.

"WHA HA HA! You lily livers couldn't have done it without my help!" Wario boasted.

"Ah, shadap." Matt replied in an exasperated voice. "We could have done it without you, all right."

"There will be more exploding objects if the two of you don't hush." Samus said threateningly.

Matt, who was much wiser that Wario, stayed quiet.

Wario, who was very foolish, said, "Oh yeah? What are you gonna do about it?"

Samus, without even aiming, shot a missile from over her shoulder, and hit Wario right on the belly.

She was rewarded with a loud blast, and a yell as Wario shot backwards and bounced off a wall.

"What was that all about?" Midna asked as she drifted down lazily.

"Midna!?!" Link yelled in shock.

"Nice to see you too." Midna said with a smile.

"I thought you couldn't come back!" Links said.

"I have my ways…Why else would I do something like that?" Midna said.

"Yeah, I guess…" Links said.

"Anyways, I heard you guys talking about finding something? If you want something, look over there." She replied, pointing over where the eye exploded.

"Now why didn't I see that before? Meta Knight said as he walked over to it and picked it up.

It was a piece of a grey mask.

"I'll take that." Midna said. Her hair suddenly turned into an orange hand made of energy, and she stretched it over and grabbed it right out of Meta Knight's hand.

"What is it?" He asked, unfazed.

"It's a fused shadow." She said.

"What's that?"

"Master Hand will explain in tonight's meeting." She said.

"Then that will have to do. If any of you need me, I'll be leafing through a notebook for some people that cam repair water damage." Meta Knight said. He sprouted his wings, and took off.

"Uh, that was a fun battle, guys, but I need to go and help out with stuff." Sonic said.

"Ok, see you-a later!" Mario waved as Sonic shot off.

"Well, what do we do now?" Luigi asked.

"Me, you, and-a Wario will fill in this-a hole, and re-cement it. After that, we can get some other plumbers to fix the pipes. We-a just don't have the stuff." Mario said.

"WHAT!!?" Wario screamed. "Why me?!?!"

"Because you're strong." Luigi said.

"Ok, well, Midna and I will be upstairs with Master hand. He's in the infirmary with the wet bandits…" Zelda said.

"Ok, well, toodles for now." Midna waved. She warped herself and Zelda away.

"Huh…Now, let's-a get busy, and Help Master hand by fixing this hole." Mario said.

"Whaaaaa……" Wario moaned, before grabbing big chunks of rock and throwing them into the hole.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Next chappy, Master hand will explain the next leg of the smasher's quest.

Can you guys guess what they'll have to do next?

Tell me in a review, if you feel like it.

So, did you like me putting that one boss in from Twilight Princess? I thought it was pretty cool, but it was too easy to beat on the game, for me.

Well, see ya next time, everybody, and thank you for reviewing, slam422!
