A note to anybody who was eliminated in the past chapter or will be in this one: Please don't stop reading because of that. I did what I had to, and you can't all win, so please don't be upset or hold a grudge. From the reviews I thought some of you guys might be mad at me, and I really don't want anyone to be mad at me...so please keep reading.

"Well, I guess the best woman will win" Akie smiled as she headed out onto the battlefield, China Girl following.

China Girl managed to give a smile and speak. "Yep, I will win"

"I said the best, that's me" Replied Akie, pointing her thumb to herself. The two girls stood at opposite ends of Final Destination.

"Ok, let's begin. The battle will be in Eagleland Onett" Master Hand flew over Final Destination, and the entire scene began to change. It went from a long, flat platform to a smaller platform with houses and stuff. It was Ness' stage of Eagleland Onett, and having acquired Ness' powers, China Girl got to have a sort of homefield advantage for this, but it seems Akie has the height advantage, while both have strong magical powers. Who will be the victor?

"I'm going to be the victor!" Akie yelled. "What kind of a stupid question is that?!" Hey, no yelling at the narrator, missy!

"3, 2, 1, go" Master Hand quickly announced to get the battle underway.

Back on the sidelines as the battle was about to begin, Tim333 was walking up, his sword behind his back and he was sopping wet from head to toe. "I say...I am so wet. I cannot believe I have lost, I even had a three-year age advantage"

Razor Osaka gave a growl. "I don't believe it. One minute I'm turning on my GameCube the next I'm being knocked out by some fourteen year old with a helmet. Why was I brought here to be knocked out in the first round?"

"I do say it is not fair, as well, old chap" Tim333 looked towards the first four winners, BlackMage13, Dr. Nick, Master Gamer and Platinum K. "They are all so young, and we are older, yet we end up stuck on the sidelines"

"Why don't you just use words with apostrophes in them?" Razor Osaka asked as he looked at Tim333. The young man gave a shrug, and Razor Osaka quickly continued. "Well, I have an idea to get back into this thing..." He grinned and looked at Crono12345 and Culex576, who were talking in the corner. "What do you say we get some new hats and try again?"

"Good lord, man!" Tim333 gave a bit of a gasp. "That is cheating! I won't stand for doing something so unjust!"

"Unjust? You want to talk about unjust? Being defeated by 13 and 14 year olds just because they had some dinky hats is unjust, damnit!" Razor Osaka pounded his fist on the wall. "Master Hand is too stupid to notice, if we want to get something achieved, we have to do this. Come on, let's do it"

"Well, I suppose..." Tim333 thought for a second. "It is better than being stuck here talking about our losses. Yes, I say, let us do it!"

"Hyah!" Akie leapt into the air and quickly drove her foot into China Girl's stomach. Her extra height came in handy to get an attack from a respectable range, especially with the Lightning Kick she used. China Girl took a few steps back.

"So that's how you wanna play it? How about I walk the dog then?" China Girl pulled out Ness' long yo-yo and threw it far off to catch Akie in the face. She leapt up at this and faced China Girl from the top of one house. China Girl simply smiled menacingly and placed her hands to her cap. "P.K. Thunda!"

"Too slow!" Akie jumped away, leaving the Thunder attack to fly around unguided, since China Girl didn't have enough practice with this specific attack to use it properly. Taking advantage of this momentary shock to hop down. "Yah!" A quick prism of blue energy came around. China Girl was hit several times and thrown back by the Nayru's Love attack. "Hah, Zelda's powers are pretty good, wouldn't you say, China Girl? Too bad all you got is Ness'"

"Well, Ness also has the..." China Girl dashed over towards Akie with a midair jump, reached into her pocket for something. "THE HOME-RUN BAT!" Without any time to react, Akie found herself at the wrong end of a quick swing of China Girl's Home Run Bat. Akie was sent back, and she would have been gone out of the park, but luckily a house stopped her.

"Hey...that hurt" Akie got to her feet and faced China Girl. "Well, you won't win now. Watch me use....Din's...FIRE!" Akie waved her now gloved hands to send out a small orange-red ball of fire-like energy, most likely fire.

"Fight fire with fire is what I say" China Girl moved her hat, which had the brim pointing to the side, backwards. "P.K. Fiyah!" She quickly sent out a small wisp of what appeared to be smoke, but it's true powers would be revealed.

"YAH!" Akie waved one of her hands, and the Din's Fire she started burst into a large, burning fireball. As this happened China Girl's P.K. Fire turned from smoke into a large firewall. But, the fires quickly began to sort of merge, as they set the drug store in the middle of the tiny stage aflame.

The fire spread out into the right house and the left, due to the whole building which was on fire already. The telephone pole quickly caught the flames, as well as the trees and soon the entire Eagleland Onett had become a huge inferno of fire.

"Master Hand, stop the match!" Akie pleaded as she looked over the hand. She ducked as a piece of wood which was lighted nearly hit her. "We can't fight in this fire!"

"Yeah, she's right" China Girl tried to stay above the fire on the tip-top of the telephone post, but it seemed nothing would work, and she leapt down to one of the buildings. "We're going to die if this happens!"

"Die if you must" Master Hand didn't have a face, but if he did you could tell he was smiling. "Anything goes in this tournament, including dying"

"Well, this isn't really fair if we have to di--huh?" Akie looked ahead of her. With the fire starting she hadn't seen ahead of her was a car coming. By this point it was only a couple of yards away and speeding closer still. "Oh...no"

With a sickening thud Akie was struck in the stomach by the car, and instead of being latched on was somehow launched away. It seemed she would be knocked out for the end of the match, but managed to hold onto a building.

"Yes...I can win this now!" China Girl ran towards Akie, knowing that by now she must have been hurt a lot, and the slightest attack could beat her. "There may be a fire, but I'm not going to let it stand in my way! I'm going home!"

"Oh...no you don't!" Akie quickly grabbed China Girl by her hair and launched her with a magical yellow energy which emitted from her hands out into the inferno. China Girl and Akie both were hurt, and being hurt even more by the fire. The fight could go either way. "Now...I'll finish it the way I...STARTED!" Akie leapt up into the air and struck China Girl in the neck region with a Lightning Kick. China Girl went flying due to the high damage taken due to the fire and fell off the edge onto the long, flat platform. It was over.

"Game set, Akie advances!"

As everyone (except the real Smash Brothers) cheered on Akie while she came over to join the current winners, a smell was in the air. A kind of smelly smell...the smell...of treachery!

"Are you sure there was a Poké Ball around here?" Culex576 and Crono12345 were searching the area around the place, with Tim333 and Razor Osaka standing behind them, both with their arms crossed and grins on their face.

"Oh yes, I'm sure there was one around--NOW!" Razor Osaka dashed over towards Crono12345. "AUGH...AGH!" He struck the young man with a quick Warlock's Punch, sending him down to the ground with a single horridly strong shot. Culex576 tried to help his friend but was blocked off by Razor Osaka as Tim333 finished him off by hitting him in the head with a boomerang. With that Crono12345 fell to the ground, knocked out. Tim333 walked over, tossed off the Link cap and pulled on the Mewtwo one. Luckily the Mewtwo cap covered his face, so there wouldn't be much of a difference. The shield and sword dissapeared, but now he had Psychic powers.

"The mental powers of Mewtwo are mine to command!" Tim333 gave a loud, evil laugh similar to Mewtwo's and spun around in midair, just like the taunt.

Expecting what was to come, Culex576 quickly began to shoot out some fire out of his mouth. The continuos rate was enough to keep Razor Osaka and Tim333 away, but Culex576 found that it burned his throat. He couldn't continue the Fire Breath, leaving Tim333 to wipe him out with a quick slash of the sword to the stomach. Razor Osaka took off his Ganondorf cap and grabbed the Bowser hat from Culex576's head. "This was pretty easy, don't you say?"

"Yes, quite" Tim333 threw the Link cap onto Crono12345's head, as Razor Osaka did the same to Culex576 with the Ganondorf hat. "I do find it quite surprising that the powers of Link and Ganondorf are working together. But you do know we have to fight each other, right?'

"Yep...but I figured I could win. If anyone asks, that's us. Now let's go, we can see who we're fighting next, the seventh fight is after this one"

"Man...I was hoping to win" China Girl came back to the sidelines, standing by all the ones who already lost. "Oh well, good match" She extended a hand to Akie, who was coming over to her.

"Yeah" Akie smiled and shook her hand. But everyone's attention was drawn to the battlefield, now a non-flaming Final Destination once more, as the Master Hand's booming voice started.

"Ok, time for fight six!" Master Hand announced. "The combatants are Reanda, Imperial Kai and her opponent is dragonax2k1!" The Super Smash Brothers from the sidelines started a 26-round boo, but Reanda was starting to get fed up.

"Oh, give it up! Your booing is getting old" Reanda tossed her bag of popcorn at Dr. Mario, catching him precisely in the head and causing him to fall over in his chair.

"The interesting thing about this is that Reanda has Marth's powers, while dragonax2k1 has those of Roy! This should be most interesting...so we'll hold it at the Fountain of Dreams" Master Hand quickly transformed the Final Destination into a very small stage. It had a roundish bottom, with a fountain behind it. There were a couple of planks, but the true thing to watch was the beauty of the whole thing.

"I'll have you know that I'm going to beat you down" Reanda smiled confidently. She held out Marth's sword, Falchion, towards dragonax2k1.

"No way, the Sword of Seals shall be what vanquishes you!" dragonax2k1 held forth Roy's sword in the same fashion. "Let's duel!"

"3...2...1...DUEL! I mean, go, go!"

"HEEYAH!" dragonax2k1 dashed at Reanda and tried to slice her with the sword, but she quickly blocked with her own and the two took a leap back from the deadlock.

"You won't win" Reanda did a quick duck and rolled back, getting to her feet at the rightmost platform, holding out Falchion.

"Don't be so CONFIDENT!" dragonax2k1 leapt up and came down onto Reanda with a flaming sword, which struck the girl and sent her back. There was no blood drawn from the sword hit had done it's damage to Reanda.

"I'm confident for a reason!" Reanda quickly dashed over and attacked him with several stabs to the stomach. dragonax2k1 couldn't help but take a step back but he still held out the sword, ready to continue the fight. "Ok, make it easy on yourself and stand still!"

dragonax2k1 held his sword backwards, just standing there, glowing a bit red. Reanda was already about to attack with the Dancing Blade attack of Marth's, and wasn't going to stop. Unfortunately Reanda was hit full-strength by a smash move sent out by dragonax2k1, and was sent flying.

With a quick Dolphin Slash, Reanda was able to propel herself back up the stadium, just as dragonax2k1 was charging up seemingly the same attack, only he was holding the sword behind his back and standing still. Reanda was just getting back to the stadium as the whole place started to quake, quake from dragonax2k1's energy.

"No...it can't be" Reanda tried to get away, but being at the edge there was no real place to run, because of the tiny stage and the fact she was at the end of it.

"HYAH!" With a vicious shot dragonax2k1 pulled the sword right down onto Reindeer's head, with a giant and firey explosion that nearly took up the entire stage. The full force of a single knockout move sent Reanda not only out of the stage but into the distance, shining as a star in the back. "Whoa, that was quick" dragonax2k1 put his sword in the holder on his belt and gave a sigh of relief.

"Game set, dragonax2k1 advances!" Master Hand quickly turned Final Destination back to it's old self as he prepared for the next fight.

"Way to go, man" Platinum K congratulated dragonax2k1 as he joined the little Winner's Lounge with BlackMage13, Dr. Nick, Platinum K, Master Gamer and Akie.

"Thanks" dragonax2k1 sat down in the second bench in the winner's section of the sidelines. "I'm just glad I was able to make it through here. You know, being stuck in a GameCube isn't so bad when you get used to it"

"Come to think of it, yeah" Agreed BlackMage13.

"Looks like the next fight is starting" Master Gamer pointed out towards the field, where Master Hand was once again starting to talk.

"Match seven starts now, between Sarie Cigam and Houou. Sarie Cigam will be dueling as, as strange as it sounds, Yoshi, and Houou will be dueling in the form of Samus. Now get out here!"

"Good luck" Houou said to her opponent as she donned her Samus hat once more, the cannon appearing as well.

"Same to you" Sarie did a very, very high jump, getting up to the middle of Final Destination immediatley.

Crazy Hand floated into Final Destination for his own speaking. "Ok, since all of Yoshi's stages absolutely suck, we're going to put this one at...BRINSTAR DEPTHS! BWAHAHAHAHA!"

"No, not even I could be that cruel" Master Hand pushed Crazy Hand away from Final Destination and back to the front of the audience section. "You are so annoying"

"Well, I haven't said anything yet..." Crazy Hand sadly said.

Master Hand continued, ignoring his brother--er, sister. "We're putting this at regular Brinstar. Good luck"

Master Hand turned Final Destination into yet another stage. The bottom floor of it was rocky and cave-like in appearance, and only a little smaller than Final Destination. There were two attached parts above it, only large enough for about two characters, and a large one, about the size of the middle two platforms put together. Below it, however, was the issue. There was yellow and orange lava, acid, or acidic lava. Whatever it was it wasn't the stuff you'd want to go into. Luckily the Imperial Kai herself was already out and heading for the sidelines.

"Man, how could I lose like that?" Reanda gave a sigh, but not of relief, more of sadness. She went to the opposite side of the sidelines, next to Grey Fox.

"Figures that bad things happen to good people" Grey Fox replied with a long sigh. "We're living proof of that right here. It's really hard to face that Flare Blade attack of Marth's though, you did good"

"Thanks" Reanda smiled towards Grey Fox as the two prepared to watch the battle between Houou and Sarie.

"3...2..1...GO!"

"This is where I'd earn my pay if I got any money" Houou stood back and began to charge in her new cannon arm a small ball of purple and bluish energy which grew increasingly bigger to each second.

"I'll drop down and break you like a bomb!" Sarie leapt into the air with an amazing drop and crashed down onto Houou. Houou ended up lying on her stomach with the Charge Shot stopped and some discomfort in the lower back region.

"Get off me!" Houou held up her cannon arm and pulled out a long, blue beam, sending Sarie sailing across the stadium with a simple flick of it. "I'll show you how a true woman fighter fights now" Houou leapt into the air, turning herself into a compacted ball, hitting Sarie with several quick hits before sending her across the field.

"Gr...let's see how you like this!" Sarie pulled a very large green-spotted egg, seemingly out of nowhere and launched it across the arena to strike Houou. Houou quickly just leapt back onto the platform she was knocked off. Wasting no time Sarie leapt up and came down, kicking Houou in the head several times were her legs and feet now better adapted. Unfortunately, Houou's Samus hat easily absorbed most of the blows, and Houou was able to send Sarie across the field once more with a quick Missile that exploded on contact.

"All right, now I'll start to get a bit more physical in my attacking" Houou dashed over towards Sarie and put her cannon arm down on the ground, catching Sarie off-guard with a Ground Fire which sent Sarie into the air. It seemed Houou had complete dominance in this fight so far.

"I'm fighting for my freedom, my freedom to write and by God I'm gonna defend it!" Sarie opened her mouth and extended....a tounge. She quickly slurped up Houou and before anyone knew it there was an egg like the one she had just threw, only much bigger, laying behind her.

"Ew, that's just gross" Master Gamer commented from the sidelines as she watched this, shielding her eyes, even though it had already happened.

"Hey, get me out of this thing!" Houou pounded on the egg, but to no avail. She could feel herself being hit, and the vibrations from the egg carried over into the egg, hurting Houou more. "Grr...not again. Wait, I got it..."

"Now to beat you once and for all!" Sarie turned herself into an egg and began to spin in place, sparking up with energy.

The egg broke open, revealing Houou. But she seemed mysteriously calm for a person about to be run over by a giant egg..."Ok, bring it on!" As Sarie came closer, Houou held out the cannon. A huge Charge Shot emitted and caught Sarie, sending her soaring out of the arena. Just as she did, the substance below the stadium hit her. Sarie ended up coming back up, but laying on the ground, unable to move.

"Game set, Houou advances!" Houou smiled as she came off the field that was going back into Final Destination, taking a seat in the winner's section. "Looks like I won"

"And...I lost" Master Hand pulled Sarie over into the sidelines. "Man, I wanted to win, guess I just needed to try a little bit harder...

"Ok, time we finish this first round, let's have Culex576 and Crono12345 out here!"

"Well, let's go fight, Crono" Razor Osaka said the Crono part with a wink. Tim333 nodded and teleport immediatley onto Final Destination as Razor Osaka stomped his way out.

"Ok, Crono12345 will be fighting with Mewtwo's Psychic powers, while Culex576 is fighting as Bowser. The match will be in the Rainbow Cruise" The Final Destination quickly turned into a medium sized barge, with some masts and stuff, but that's it. It was seemingly floating in midair. "Now, let's begin!"

"We have been partners in this, but only one of us will get the second chance!" Tim333 began to float, yet very slowly, at Razor Osaka.

"Yeah, and that'll be ME!" Flames started to build up in Razor Osaka's mouth as the two prepared to end their temporary truce for a shot at the glory.
