Hurray! New Chapter, this one took awhile I'll admit but at least it didn't
take me six months like last time. Only a week! I think I've finally gotten
back into this little tournament, I was kind of bored with it for a while
then I bought Super Smash Bros. Melee and got into Smash Brothers again and
had to start writing this story again. Speaking of Melee after this story
I'll probably have a sequel using all the Melee characters. Lastly I'll
just let you read it. Here's the seventh battle: Fox Vs. George
-------------------------------
Chapter 9: Round One Battle Seven
"We've had an exciting first six battles!" Cheetor640 announced. "Which leaves only two more battles of the first round! At the moment there are still ten competitors left but at the end of the first round there will be only eight remaining to do battle in the second round! So let's get on with the seventh match of today! First we present the giant ape that was brought destruction throughout the world, but has now been shrunk down for today's tournament – the giant ape from the Rampage games – George!"
The crowd cheered as the shrunk down ape stepped out of the competitors box and into the ring.
"Next we have a veteran Nintendo character who's been around since the early Super Nintendo games, the master of the skies Fox McLeod!"
The crowd only cheered louder as Fox emerged from the competitors box and soon took a place in the ring, and assumed a fighters stance. The two competitors gazes soon met.
'I've got to beat this guy.' Fox thought. 'For the honour of all Nintendo characters. He's not even a Nintendo character he's been in other systems, it would be horrible if a non Nintendo character won, it's bad enough that Jack managed to make it, I've got to make sure that this guy is out as soon as possible.'
The judge pushed the button on the Stage-o-matic and the flat platform ring began to reshape itself, the sky above it began to turn into that of a sunset and the floor began to become wooden.
"And the round is decided!" Cheetor640 said. "It's Kongo Jungle Donkey Kong's level! Now that we have our level, and our competitors let's begin the fight!"
"I'm going to win this crush you and win this quickly," George said. "Then maybe I can fight someone worthy of my strength."
Fox smiled. "You're the one who's going to be crushed. You've been shrunk down in order to qualify for this tournament. It's your size that has always given you an advantage in your games, and now you've lost that main advantage. You're nothing but an ordinary ape now."
"You're one to talk," George said. "You've always relied on your Arwing to get you through your games, now you've lost it. You're nothing but a fox."
"You'd be surprised," Fox gloated. "Let's see if you can prove that I'm just a Fox."
George grinned. "Just remember you're the one you invited the pain."
Finally ending the conversation George charged, his feet pounding on the wooden floor of DK's stage. George used his primary attack he was most known for; a simple punch. But Fox's amazing speed was more than enough to easily dodge the mighty fist. He quickly leaped into one of the moving platforms above. This had not stopped Georges's attack though; he jumped onto the same platform and brought his fist down and for the second time Fox easily dodged it and jumped to the second moving platform.
George's attack still didn't stop and he continued by jumping onto the same platform trying another simple punch, which Fox dodged without a second thought and jumped onto the stationary platform behind him.
Finally George got the picture that his basic punches – while worked wonders on buildings that never moved – weren't fast enough to hit the speedy Fox, however he still continued his attack and jumped to the platform which Fox had. This time instead of trying to punch he made a grab, he was planning to throw Fox out of the ring. Fox quickly countered and activated his shield and before George could lay a hand on him he was zapped by Fox's shield and thrown below to the stage's largest and main platform.
Fox jumped down to the main platform and looked down at George with a big smile on his face.
"Actually I haven't completely lost my ship." Fox said. "I have a miniature version of my Arwing's shield generator on me. So at any second I can activate my shield so you won't be able to stop me. With this shield you won't be able to lay a hand on me."
George slowly got up clenching his teeth in a look absolute anger.
"I'll show you!" George yelled and without thinking threw the strongest punch that he could at Fox's face.
"Didn't you hear anything I just said?" Fox said as he activated his shield.
Despite the shield George continued and threw the punch and to Fox's surprise the ape's fist went right through the shield unharmed and landed in Fox's face. The powerful blow sent Fox flying off the platform, despite his surprise Fox still managed to gain control jumped in midair and managed to make it safely back to the platform.
"What a disappointment to Fox!" Cheetor640 yelled. "He has just learned that while his shield may deflect energy attacks and may hurt his opponents if they are standing right next to him it will not repel plain old physical attacks, which unfortunately for him are the only kind of attacks George can use."
Fox rubbed the red mark on his face. 'Damn, I should have thought of that, I was only able to hurt him with the shield before because he was just trying to pick me up. My shield isn't capable of repelling physical attacks like that they'll just pass through it. Just my luck I get to fight one of the few fighters in this tournament that doesn't know how to use energy attacks, my shield is useless against him unless he's standing right beside me and I know he's not going to be stupid enough to make that mistake again. I'll just have to beat him using my other skills. Good thing he's slow, which means I can still rely on my superior speed.'
"Are you going to stand there all day?" George asked. "Or are you going to fight?"
Fox quickly fulfilled George's request and began the fight deciding to use his speed. He seemed to disappear he was moving so fast. George was confused at first but he soon realized what was going on as Fox appeared right in front of him. It all happened too fast for the Rampage star to react. He soon found himself on the receiving end of one of Fox's swift kicks. Fox didn't stop with one; a barrage of Fox's kicks was now pummeling George. Fox soon grew tired of the barrage and kicked George aside with one final kick, throwing the lumbering ape to the edge of the bases main platform.
Fox's attack didn't end there, he bean to run at George who was just beginning to recover from the last heavy attack.
"No way!" George yelled. "Not again."
The stadium was soon filled with a deafening scream as George released his most powerful attack: Death Breath (NOTE: in the game this is really DK's attack when he slams his hands on the ground).
George's harmful sound waves hit Fox dead on and tossed him up into the air slightly. The shrunk down ape attacked during Fox's moment of vulnerability gave Fox one of the strongest punches he could muster. The power of the punch was too much for Fox to resist, especially in his weakened stage and he was thrown from the arena completely out of the ring.
"And the great Fox is out of the ring!" Cheetor640 announced. "Looks like George has just gained the advantage, one more down for Fox and the fight is over."
Fox grumbled to himself angrily as the hover board delivered him back to the arena. 'Well this is just great, now I've got to beat him twice or the wannabe Nintendo star is going to continue into the tournament.'
Fox stepped onto the moving platform, but no sooner than he did than George continued his previous attack where it had left off. He jumped up to the moving platform and met Fox's face with a quick punch. Fox quickly recovered but his recovery was short lived, he was soon kicked down to the main platform.
The weakened canine fighter shook off the last attack and glanced up at his opponent. George was on one of the moving platforms waiting it to move back up to it's maximum height before attacking again.
"This is no good," Fox said quietly. "I've already been beaten once, now I'm taking more damage. I have to beat him quickly before my damage meter gets to high to fight him for a second time. I just hope this next move is enough."
Soon the moving platform reached its maximum height and George attacked lunging at Fox from above.
Fox began his counter attack right away and engulfed himself in flames and shot himself into George stopping his lunge. Fox's flames began to die out, but he still wasn't done attacking. He did a mid-air flip and kicked George's stomach. George's damage meter was way to high to take the attack and he was sent flying out of the ring.
Fox smiled. "That should tie things up."
"Now George was been knocked out once!" Cheetor640 said. "However George still holds the advantages since Fox's damage meter has taken some damage."
George hovered down to the field on the hover board, then jumped onto one of the higher platforms.
"That's it nobody knocks me off!" George yelled. "I'm taking you down!"
George let out an incredible scream releasing his Death Breath. Fox didn't have to do anything to dodge the attack; he was on a lower platform he was completely out of range of George's Death Breath.
'He's just attacking out of anger,' Fox thought. 'This is the perfect time to attack!'
"Hi ya!" Fox yelled engulfing himself in flames and ramming into George a second time. He attempted a kick like before but George jumped in mid-air and landed on the second stationary platform.
"Running away huh?" Fox said. "I won't let you! I'll win this for all the true Nintendo characters!"
Fox quickly drew his gun and hit George with a barrage of lasers, which George was helpless to escape from. Finally George was forced of the higher platform and onto the lower one.
"I'm ending this!" Fox yelled jumping to the lower platform.
He started to charge at George ending the charge with a swift kick.
"Not this time!" George yelled raising his shield and blocking the kick. "This time you're going to fly!"
Even Fox wasn't fast enough to react as George quickly grabbed a hold of his leg and tossed him into the air. George followed the attack and met Fox's face with his fist. He couldn't move Fox tried but he was soon found in a barrage of George's punches. Finally George ended the barrage with one final punch to the face, the strongest he had delivered during the entire battle and Fox was sent flying out of the field at an amazing speed.
George laughed. "Looks like I win!"
"Not yet!" Fox yelled.
The leader of the Starfox team was very close to being knocked out of the ring, but had stopped just in time. He used a combination of jumping in mid- air and his strongest technique to get him back to the field. Fox barely made it back to the field, he had to cling to the side and climb back up to make it.
"You're starting to get annoying!" George yelled. "Time for my strongest punch yet!"
George began to charge, while Fox began to use his strongest attack and engulfed himself in flames and shot himself forward. George pulled back his fist and swung his fist at the oncoming Fox.
Fox and George collided in a large attack clash! The two hits had hurt both of the two opponents and both of them were thrown aside both out of the field and both out of the ring.
"Game Set!" echoed throughout the stadium as the stage began to hold back into it's original flat terrain.
Cheetor640 stood speechless; both competitors were now lying outside the ring.
"I – Incredible," he stuttered. "Both Fox and George have been knocked out of the ring. The question we must ask ourselves which one of them landed first? And which one is our winner? It looks like we have a photo finish here. Judges."
A group of judges gathered around a table eyeing up a picture that had been taken right before George and Fox had been knocked out of the ring.
One of the judges held up the photo and yelled. "It's George."
"George won?" Cheetor640 said pulling the mike away from his mouth.
Fox's mouth dropped open. "George won."
The judge shook his head. "No George is the first one out."
"We have the results!" Cheetor640 announced. "George was out of the ring first! Which of course means that Fox is the winner!"
Fox sighed in relief then smiled. "I beat him, now a true Nintendo character will move onto round two."
"Are you kidding me!" George yelled. "Are you telling me I was shrunk down just to get my ass kicked?"
"Hardly," Fox said as he approached George. "You didn't exactly get your ass kicked. You may have lost but it was a close match. If my damage meter had been even one percent higher you would have won."
"Well I guess that's not so bad, Just one question." George said. "Can I get bigger now?"
-------------------------
Well that wasn't so bad was it? I hope that makes you happy a lot of people were upset over George and now he's gone, I hope that makes you feel better about the last battle when Ness was eliminated. Well guys the next one is the match you've all been waiting for, I've had a lot of people say they can't wait for this next match and I've played the match on my game and you won't be disappointed it's a good one.
Stay tuned for the next battle: Link Vs. Samus
