Chapter 1- Trash Talk
PUNCH-OUT ARENA
Sonic arrives at the arena with Eggman and they walk through the halls were the other the 3 fighters, Banjo and Kazooie, Isabelle, and Hero are training in their own way. "Tonight, is the last night of path one in the Rest of Worlds Path 1. The Final Four are Banjo and Kazooie, Isabelle, Hero, and Sonic the Hedgehog." Chun Li reported. Banjo and Kazooie are talking to their friends Mumbo, Bottles, and Humba Wumba, who are looking at Isabelle as if she was the devil.
"We are going to see three great matches and even though all four have advanced to Hyrule, the number one spot is the one that many fighters want to have as it can be beneficial when you get drawn in the top spot of the Group." Chun Li continued her report.
Sonic walks pass Hero, who is writing in his notepad, with the top of the list regarding his match with Sonic reading: How To Annoy A Hedgehog. "Next month, Path 2 for the Mushroom Kingdom, DMWM, World of Fighters, Space Legends, and Rest of Worlds will begin and we have the results for you when we come back later tonight with who will get the number one spot." Sonic stops to see Pac-Man and Mrs. Pac-Man with their teenage son Pac Jr. and his teen girlfriend Yum-Yum, he walks up to greet them. "Who will win? Only one way to find out." Chun Li finished her report.
"And Banjo and Kazooie prevent Isabelle from making it to the final!" Chun Li calling the finish of the first Semi-Final match, which was being watched on the tv monitor in Sonic's dressing room. "Looks like if you beat Hero, you are going to face those two." Eggman telling Sonic as they begin to walk toward the stage area "Well, I think Hero is going to be a complex guy because that sword and shield." Sonic said to Eggman. "But I'm not worried, all I have to do is not fall for anyone tricks." Sonic assuring Eggman. "All right, I'll be with Amy and Aurora; Good Luck Sonic." "May not need it but thank you." Sonic thanked Eggman, who left Sonic alone in his dressing room.
Sonic arrived at the pre-stage area as Hero made his entrance, he stretches and awaits his que from the organizer and his crew. As Hero arrived in the ring, Sonic was about to hit his entrance until Hero, using a microphone. "What is he doing?" Asked the organizer, who was looking at the rest of the stage room crew, who don't have an answer.
"Before this fight begins, I want to say that this old Hedgehog right here may have advanced by beating a pizza missing a slice, and then a giant sword waving spike hair square head, who can't hit a small rodent. But then again, I don't blame Cloud cause let's face it, it's about the young boys now. Pac-Man, Sonic, Mr. Game and Watch, they are old, but somehow they can't seem to get that it's all about the new blood now." The crowd was confused why Hero was acting this way, but all they could do is listen to him. "Let's look at Sonic, who returned after what, Four years? And I get it, he had to fight for his life after that match with Falco. I am happy for that he recovered, and him to come back and do what he did to get back to the Smash Brothers Ultimate Tournament, that deserves praise." Hero clapped along with the audience who cheered as well.
In the pre-stage area, the Organizer liked this. "Wow, that is the nicest thing to ever be said." Sonic, however, knew there was something off about this. "Wait for it." Sonic said to the organizer, knowing there was a catch. Hero let the crowd died out and continued to talk.
"But let's agree that Sonic is just a flavor of the month and can't handle young blood, including me. And what I mean by that is he is an old dinosaur that should have stayed retired!" He screamed and instead of the crowd cheering for this, they booed. "Boo all you want; you can't deny that he can handle someone like me, and watch, I will so you guys that this match will be short. Heck, after this is over, maybe Sonic can go back home with his wife and little runt of a daughter and just sit back and be lazy." The crowd booed loud at this comment, even Chun Li and Rouge were disgusted with this. "Someone beat him up, please" Chun Li begged. "Only one person can, and he still hasn't appeared yet." Rouge mentioning Sonic. The crowd booed loud as Hero tried to speak again, but every time he tried, boos grew louder, with Amy and Aurora joining the crowd.
"Hey, I'm just being real and I get all of you well never amount to anything that I was capable of doing, and come on, my name is hero for craps shake, and I have a great story that is nothing compared to a Hedgehog who rescued animals that were in robots, and then make crap decision like turning into a Werehog." The crowd continued to boo him. "Really, all of you thought that he was capable of making Werewolf's look cool, because I think those Twlights films and that terrible Wolfman remake made that impossible for him to be popular. Plus, I thought the old Wolfman movies were better then that whatever that Bull crap was!"
"Someone cut his mic!" Said the Organizer to the audio crew. "No." Sonic stopped him "Give me a mic." Sonic ordered the Organizer. "No, why?" He asked, but Sonic was not answering. "Give…Me…The…DAMN…MIC!" He said frustrated, causing the Organizer to relent. "Give him one!" He ordered and one of the audio crew members gave Sonic the mic. "You crossed the line now, Son." Sonic said as he is about to school Hero on the mic.
