Chapter Seven: The Search for Earthbound
A huge blue car had crashed into an empty cage. The doors were open and the pilot lay unconscious next to it, rubbing his head. Wire frames chained Captain Falcon as the hands looked over their new captive. The Master Hand spoke, "That was rather easy."
The Crazy Hand turned toward the Master Hand, "Let's keep on moving. I feel like I'm on fire."
"Ok, I'm working on it," replied the Master Hand not paying attention to what he was doing. The portal opened up and the Master Hand was pleased, "Now that boy shall pay for his trickery…onward to Onett." The two hands entered the portal.
At the outskirts of a city called Onett lay a community of small houses. One of those houses belonged to a small boy by the name of Ness. Ness wore a tee shirt and jeans, and on his head, he always had a red cap. Ness had a lot of items for such a young kid, but most was from his amazing adventure from saving the world. Almost a year from the present, Ness had ventured out into the world to rid of it an evil of immense proportion. The evil had no shape or form and was made from pure evil. The evil was only known by one name: Giygas. Ness was not alone in his adventures. He met three friends along the way. Today, Ness is paying them a visit, but the travels are long and treacherous. For Ness, though, they are short and easy. Why some may ask, but the answer is of the paranormal. A year ago, during Ness' adventure to save the world, he discovered he had an amazing talent that he shares with only a few people in the world. The power of PSI that was bestowed onto this child enabled him to use magic powers such as PSI Rockin', a very powerful attack, and PSI shield, of which he could summon a psychic shield to protect him and anyone around him. But for this journey, only one PSI was required…PSI Teleport Beta. This PSI is an upgraded PSI form the original PSI teleport, which Ness learned from a monkey in a Dusty Dunes Desert. Some would laugh at the tale, but if they saw it happen, they would stare in awe at Ness' amazing psychic talents. Ness grabbed his baseball bat, and pocketed his yoyo and some items, which he placed into his backpack. He flung the backpack over his shoulders and shouted upstairs, "Bye, mom. I'll see you for supper."
A voice came from the upstairs, "Bye, Ness. Dinner will be ready at six. Be back here or it'll be cold."
Her words could not be heard for Ness had rushed out the door in excitement of seeing his friends. In a cleared area, Ness stood in the center. He looked around and nodded his head, "I can't wait to see Paula." He began to spin in circles, faster and faster, the circles increasing in size. Ness' dog ran after him, and banged right into him. Ness stopped moving. "You know better, boy. I can't complete my teleportation if I run into something. Go back into the house." The dog ran back toward the house. Ness went back to the center of the clearing and began another PSI Teleport Beta, "Crazy dog, I lost nine PSI because of that." Ness kept on spinning and soon disappeared.
About seventy-five miles away from Onett lay the city of Twonson. The city was larger than Onett, but Ness' destination was not a big house or the hotel, but a little school called Polestar Preschool. The school is run by a family consisting of a mother, a father, and a girl. The girl is called Paula. Not only is she a caring teacher, but also she has a special gift that she shares with Ness. Paula has extremely powerful PSI abilities, stronger than Ness'. Paula first met Ness almost a year ago, and joined his fight against Giygas. Her prayers were heard during the battle and an enormous force was able to kill off Giygas. Ness and Paula had been through a lot together and they stayed very close during the past year. Ness and Paula could talk to each other through their PSI powers in their minds. When they were lonely, they would teleport to each other's houses. Sometimes they would go see shows at the Toppola Theater in Fourside, where they met a group of musicians called the Runaway Five. A few months ago, they came back to Fourside on tour and Ness and Paula got free seats and were their personal guests for the day. Paula had been training Ness in the art of PSI on different skills of PSI that he did not know like PSI Fire and PSI Thunder. Lately, Ness had been training on an advance version of PSI Flash. It wasn't perfected yet on accuracy, but it was super strong as long as he kept concentration. Ness arrived a block from the Polestar Preschool. Paula was waiting outside for him. She wore a special pink dress for today's get together. She saw ness in the distance and waved at him, "Hi, Ness!"
Ness sprinted toward the school and stopped right in front of Paula, "Hi, Paula. I like your dress."
Paula blushed a little, "Thanks, Ness," she regained her train of thought, "We better go get Jeff before he thinks that we're late." Ness nodded in agreement and they both teleported out of Twonson.
In the town of Winters near an all-boys school stood the laboratory of the genius, Dr. Andonuts. Dr. Andonuts had a son, who did attend the all-boy's school named Jeff. Jeff was a bright lad, who like his father, loved to create things. About a year ago, a voice talked to him in his mind, as a cry for help. He had snuck out of the school to rescue Paula and Ness from a group of zombies who had over run the town of Threed. Though Jeff had no PSI abilities at all, his inventions (and occasionally his fathers' inventions) had saved them from uncertain doom. Jeff joined their group to destroy Giygas. After his adventure with Ness, his father took him out of the all-boys school and made him his personal assistant. Recently, Jeff and his father had been working on restoring and perfecting the Sky Runner. Jeff wore his clothes from when they first met and waited for his friends outside the laboratory. Ness and Paula arrived from Twonson after a successful teleportation. They both said their hellos, "Hi, Jeff."
Jeff properly greeted his friends, "Salutations Ness and Paula. You are both looking excellent."
Ness was very vernacular in his speech compared to Jeff, "You don't need to talk all scientificy around friends. You gotta be loose to travel through PSI Teleport Beta."
Jeff walked over to his friends, "Okay, but please not too fast; I don't want to ruin my good school uniform."
Paula giggled, "It's your only school uniform."
Jeff quickly spoke, "Never mind that, we better get to Dalaam and pick up Poo."
Ness spoke, "He said he would meet us there. We better get going. There are so many old faces to see and only so much PSI." Ness, Paula, and Jeff started into another teleportation. The last thing that could be heard from them before they left Winters was the screams of Jeff.
In a far-off distant land was the city of Dalaam. It was a mountainous city and at the apex was a large palace where a royal family ruled the land. Inside the castle, ten servants were waiting on a young boy wearing white robes. The boys stood up, trying to get away from the servants, "I am fine. I have to get going or else I'll be late."
One servant clung to his left leg, "But Prince Poo, your sandals are not fully clean. Allow me to make them sparkle."
Another servant waited with comb and scissor, "But Prince Poo, your hair is not properly straightened. Allow me to trim and comb your beautiful hair.
Yet another servant spoke, "But Prince Poo, we have only yet begun to pack things for your journey. Allow me to gather up some of fresh, sparkling water and delicious treats for you and your friends."
Poo enjoyed being a prince, but sometimes it was too much for him, "My sandals are fine, they'll just get dirty again. I don't have much in the way of hair. And we shan't require food or beverage. Thank you, but I have to get going."
The King of Dalaam had entered the room with a bag in one hand, hoping to catch his son before he left, "Poo, take this with you. You never know if you need it." The bag that the King had given to Poo was a Bag of Dragonite.
{Sorry to interrupt the story, but I need to clear something up for anyone who has not played the game before. Bag of Dragonite has nothing to do with the Pokemon. It is completely different. No Dagonites were harmed in anyway in its creation. Bag of Dragonite is a bag full of a magical powder. That's all you need to know for now.}
Poo took the bag gratefully from his father. He bowed to him in respect, "Thank you, father. I must get going now. I shall be back before dinner." Poo ran outside the palace and made his decent down the mountain to a clearing where he could easily teleport. As usual, young women awaited around the town to catch a glimpse at the prince. Many women in the town wished to marry the prince, and all of them beautiful. Poo knew they were after him, and sometimes he enjoyed it. Today did not matter for he was going to see his friends. Though it was improper for a prince to ignore someone when they spoke to him, he ignored the girls and their flirting, Save it for later. My only desire is to be with my friends. He made his way to the clearing, and quickly teleported, just before a mob of girls made their way to the clearing was. Seeing that he disappeared, they returned to their houses and went about their normal lives again.
A vortex opened up and out came the Master Hand and the Crazy Hand. The Crazy Hand spoke, "I can't wait to get this over with."
The Master Hand floated around in confusion, "What the…" He looked around and all he saw was not a colorful town where a boy with PSI powers came from, but a 2D world in black and white where badly drawn building were on fire.
A stick like figure with a rather large nose looked up at them in awe, "Wow! They look so…so real…" He stared at them for a few more moments, "Better get rid of them before another oil spill." The two hands didn't notice the stick figure as he pulled out two large comedic hammers and smacked them both.
The Crazy hand was enraged, "How dare you, Ness. You do now mess with the Crazy Hand!"
The stick figure pulled out a match, "The name's not Ness." He lit it and burnt the Crazy Hand inflicting some damage, "The name's Mr. Game and Watch." The Master Hand was about to smash Mr. Game and Watch with a slap when he performed a choppy cartwheel dodge, "Ya missed me!" He pulled out a bell and began to ring it in a humorous fashion. He ran up to the Master Hand and hit him with his head.
The Master Hand took some damage, but shook off the shock, "You futile piece of scum. You shall pay for that." He made a fist and smashed into Mr. Game and Watch full force. Mr. Game and Watch went flying, but he recovered with a double jump, and a group of fire fighters pushed him upward with tremendous force. Then a parachute allowed him to float gently down to the ground.
"That will cost you!" shouted Mr. Game and Watch as he ran for the Master Hand. He pulled out a hammer and on the hammer was the number nine. As he was in mid swing, the Master hand floated backward, and then lunged for Mr. Game and Watch. Before he could dodge, the Master Hand had grabbed him and slowly squeezed the life out of him. To finish him off, he threw him into the vortex.
By this time, the Crazy hand had gotten up, and wiggled his fingertips, "Let's get back to the abyss." The entered the vortex, leaving behind the burning buildings and oil spills flooding the streets.
{Let's hope the Master Hand can get the correct portal this time in chapter eight.}
