Author's Notes: Yay! Maybe not script styled the whole time, so be happy... I've got a great idea for this. What's better than my favorite anime / shows / video games combined with computers and threatening evil? Hm? I dare you to find something better! *snickers* Anyhow, enjoy!

- SUPER SMASH BROTHERS ONLINE -

(Crossover)

Chapter 2 - Welcome to the Tournament, Enjoy Your Stay

Roy looked nervously down the hall of the Smash Headquarters, gulping slightly as he opened his locker to pull out his purple cape. Placing it on, he walked over into a large gym-like room, with all of the twenty-six smashers spread out in various places, talking. This was where he belonged. After more than happily excepting the invitation to join the smashers, Roy found the fighting more to be what it seemed. There were so many challenges to being a smasher. You had to help protect the Nintendo Universe, bring peace, and still find time for a vacation to visit your homeland. He was always so busy!

"Hey, Roy!" a blue-haired boy in similar armor came running up to the pyromaniac, "A penny for your thoughts?"

A quarter landed in Roy's outstretched hand.

"That's a quarter, Marth," Roy said glumly, looking down at the shining silver coin in his hand.

"Yes, I know. So, what's up?" Marth came to a stop beside his friend.

"Just thinking. That call. You know."

"Oh, right. Yeah. You're alright Roy. I think you've become a little bit to serious in these past few years."

"Maybe you're right," Roy smiled, tucking the quarter in his pocket, "So, who's fighting today?"

"It's the beginning of the tournament!" Marth said excitedly, his dancing blue eyes resembling a kid's, "I can't wait, Roy! This is the exact reason why I joined the smashers! I've always wanted to be in a tournament,"

Roy laughed. Marth knew the exact way to cheer him up.

"Thanks, buddy. Have the first round matches been posted up yet?"

"Yeah, you better go look. They start soon," Marth nodded, and bounced off happily.

Roy looked around a bit more, still secretly nervous. Heading off for the bulletin board over near the field teleporters, he looked left to right, watching every smasher talk. Not carrying a bit. But, then again, they weren't threatened. They were the pawns, and they still didn't care. Roy closed his eyes briefly, pausing to take a deep breath and reassure himself. Everything was fine!

Stepping before the board, he looked up. The matches would be divided into four fights per day, two in the morning, a lunch break, and then two in the evening. The first fight, which would be held in five minutes, was Fox versus Bowser. The second, Ice Climbers versus Princess Zelda. The third, Link versus Kirby. And the fourth and final fight, Ganondorf versus Samus Aran.

"Hiya!" a voice called.

Roy turned around suddenly, scared by the interruption of thoughts.

"Oh, hello Fox." he smiled, "You do know you're fighting Bowser, right?"

"Yep! Been training all my years for this. Never got him back for betraying me in the original smasher group during a versus match, but I will this time!"

Roy, being recently accepted for the smasher melee group, had heard many stories of the original smasher group, consisting of many good fighters - Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, Jigglypuff, Pikachu, Link, Captain Falcon, Fox, Ness, Samus Aran, and Donkey Kong. Roy looked up to these smashers, as they were good enough in their homelands to be accepted for this amazing tournament. He was more than happy to find that Fox would like him as a friend.

"Heh, good luck, Fox." Roy smiled again.

"Will Fox McCloud and Bowser please report to the field teleporters!" an announcer voiced overhead.

Fox nodded his head, and walked off. Roy joined up with Marth, Link, and Zelda at the front row of the audience to watch Fox's matches. The two fighters entered the teleporters, which randomly selected a field.

"The arena for today will be Fourside!" the announcer boomed.

Fox dropped from the angelic platform on the wooden board held up by the crane, and surveyed his surroundings. Below him was a medium-sized building, and in front was a towering white building with a ledge to the side for easy jumping. Bowser appeared on the large platform beside the big building, and turned around, jumping over to a brown building to grab a capsule.

"And...go!"

Fox jumped forward, over the large building top, and landed in front of Bowser, who in defense, threw the capsule. Fox grabbed the capsule mid-attack and threw it back at Bowser, who did not have time to react and flew back over to the brown building again. Recovering, Bowser stood up and jumped forward, sending his fire attack straight for Fox. The sly kitsune jumped over the flames, and headed back to where he started. Picking up a beam sword, he charged forward with a Fox Fire technique, knocking the approaching Bowser back. As the koopa was trying to get back up, Fox gave a vicious smash attack with the beam sword, and sent Bowser flying over onto the recently-appeared UFO.

"You'll never beat me, boy," Bowser taunted, roaring wildly.

"Then how come you've barely even hit me?" Fox shot back, jumped up and whacking Bowser with his tail.

Bowser just stood up, jumped over Fox, and grabbed him, slicing him with his teeth. Fox managed to escape the koopa's grasp and tried for another beam sword smash attack, but it missed, and Bowser had a chance for his fire attack again. Fox flew back against the slippery surface of the UFO, grunting as he hit the end. Bowser loomed before him, the evil smirk on his face. Fox, cowering in his sitting position, tried to get up, but was smacked with Bowser's claw, and shot down under the precious of a meteor smash attack.

"And what did I say, Fox?" Bowser laughed, "You'll never beat me!"

Fox recovered mid-air and tried for his Fox Fire technique, and grabbed the edge of the brown building. The beam sword having been knocked out of his hand, Fox ran for a freezie and grabbed it. Jumping back up onto the UFO, he chucked it at Bowser. Not seeing the move, Bowser froze in seconds into a big block of ice. Fox took this as an advantage and ran over to the wooden platform, grabbed a large box, and tossed it into the sky. Side stepping to avoid any self-destructing blasts, the box broke open to reveal a Poke`ball. Fox greedily grabbed the red and white sphere and jumped back over to the now released Bowser. Throwing that down in front of the koopa's feet, it opened up to reveal Entei.

"Try for that, Koopa King!" Fox shouted.

Entei released his flames, and Bowser was instantly swept up into the madness, gaining close to 200 damage. Fox, jumped up into the air, far enough to stay away from attack, but close enough to move in quickly. Firing his blaster madly, Bowser took the laser shots head on, and was knocked out of the Fourside arena.

"GAME!" the announcer shouted, and cheers could be heard from the smashers below.

"Congratulations, Fox!" Marth said happily, meeting his furry friend coming out of the teleporter.

"Thanks, guys!" the kitsune replied, "That Bowser is really tough."

"Yeah, tella me about ita." Mario nodded, walking up, "Good joba, Foxy."

Fox just smiled, surrounded by his friends.

"The next match will begin in five minutes!" the announcer shouted above the talking of the smashers, "Visitors will be accepted after the lunch break!"

Link, who was back in the hallway, was going through his locker, talking to Zelda, who's locker was right beside his.

"You'll do fine. I must admit, Nana and Popo have excelled with rapid speed during their training at the smash headquarters, but you'll do just fine." he reassured her.

"Thank you, Link." Zelda smiled, closing her locker softly, "That means a lot to me."

Link blushed and returned to the gym, Zelda following. Five minutes later, Zelda and the Ice Climbers stood in front of the teleporters.

"Good luck, Zelda!" Link cheered.

"You'll beat those kids in no time!" Marth agreed.

"Just stay focused and work together," Ness told Nana and Popo, "She'll be easy to take down."

"Right!" the Ice Climbers replied.

"The arena for today will be Hyrule Temple!"

"Home field advantage!" Princess Zelda exclaimed happily, appearing right below the large platform in the main temple area.

The Ice Climbers landed on the lone platform in the middle of the arena, and raised their mallets in a taunt.

"We'll beat you!"

"Ready...go!"

Zelda jumped forward, shooting Din's Fire over across to the twins.

In a red explosion, both Nana and Popo went flying. Zelda took this as advantage and jumped into the smoke, but got shot back by several pairs of ice blasts. The Ice Climbers stood strong, the smoke cleared. Zelda stopped, jumped back, and shot forth Naryu's Love. The approaching Ice Climbers flew back, both separated. Nana, flying further than Popo, took longer to recover and return to him, so the lone male Ice Climber charged Zelda. When Nana returned to Popo, he was badly beaten. Zelda grabbed onto a capsule and chucked it over to the Ice Climbers. Nana stepped forward and caught the capsule, tossing it right back. Zelda dodged and watched the capsule explode to reveal a baseball bat. Ignoring the weapon, she jumped forward and transformed into Sheik.

"Give up now. It would be wise," Sheik nodded.

The Ice Climbers regrouped and glared at Sheik, who was standing on the lone platform, and them on the sloped landing.

"Never!" they shouted in unison.

Sheik Vanished, a plume of smoke in her midst, confusing the two kids. Nana stepped forward and out of the smoke, just in time to shield herself from a vicious Needle Storm attack from Sheik. Popo jumped up and rammed down on his hammer, knocking Sheik right on the head, sending her flying back over to her starting point. Recovering, she transformed back into Zelda and shot forth Din's Fire. Nana and Popo, who had regrouped, flew backwards and performed a Belay, moving Popo across the sky. Popo attacked Zelda with his mallet again, and Nana ran up to meet him. Zelda stood up once more, transforming into Sheik, who threw her chain into the two Ice Climbers. With high amount of damage, they were tossed out of the arena, one after the other.

"GAME!"

Sheik transformed back into a damaged Princess Zelda, and re-appeared in the teleporters. Link, Roy, Marth, Fox, Falco, Mario, and Peach stood there waiting for her.

"Great job!" Link congratulated her the second she appeared.

Smiling, she accepted the compliments.

"You did wonderful. I really wish I had an alter-ego to transform into!" Peach admitted.

Musing, they continued to talk until the announcer called the lunch break.

"Yay, now we can see Inuyasha and gang!" Roy bounced happily, much more relieved from his earlier scare.

Marth nodded excitedly, "And Yami, Yugi, Yami Bakura, and Ryou!"

Link laughed.

"You guys are always hyper, aren't you?"

They both bobbed their heads up and down, which was met with a laughing Link, Zelda, and Fox. Entering the cafeteria, which was already filled with Inuyasha, Kagome, Yami, Yugi, Yami Bakura, Ryou, and Legolas.

"Hey guys!" Roy greeted his friends.

"Hiya Roy!" Yugi smiled, walking up to the group, "How'd the tournament go?"

"Great!" Zelda blushed, "Fox and I won our fights."

"Congratulations," Yami's deep voice appeared, standing behind of Yugi.

"Thank you," Zelda smiled.

"Your welcome. Anyhow, who's the next fight with? And the other?"

"Link is up against Kirby," Marth informed their friend, "And then it's Ganondorf versus Samus!"

Inuyasha snickered.

"Link is going to slice that creampuff into tiny little marshmallows!" he announced.

Kagome whacked Inuyasha on the head, who grumbled. Legolas just chuckled and grabbed a tray.

"Aren't you guys hungry? Let's eat!" he said.

As the rest of the smashers filed into the room, the small group snatched up the trays and started through the line. Legolas chose a table and sat down, leaving room for the rest of the gang.

"So, describe that phone call, Roy," Yami Bakura questioned the pyromaniac.

"Yeah...um, well, at first the voice was very deep. Then it became normal like something was messed up with the phone." he paused, "And then the threat. Very vague. Just 'if you don't give us all 7 elemental orbs, we'll kill your friends'. Not a time limit, site location, or anything. I have no idea what to do!"

"I told you to calm down, Roy," Marth smiled, swallowing a piece of his hamburger, "We have a very large group here. Close to 35, I believe."

"I know, I know, but...I just get that feeling. We are still vulnerable, as we're not together for the whole day."

"The majority," Fox inserted.

"Yeah, Fox is right," Kagome nodded, "While we're only allowed to see you guys after the first two matches and during the next two, that's only 26 fighters. There's a vulnerability right there. I say that whoever called you is going to make his or her move during the first two matches, maybe even before."

"That's not always true," Legolas insisted, "Villains tend to want to show off, so I say during the lunch break or the two matches afterwards."

After lunch, the smashers and friends regrouped back in the gym. Kirby stood in front of his teleporter.

"Will Link please report to the teleporters! Link!" the announcer called.

No Hylian was sighted. All of the smashers searched, but no Link. Kirby stood nervously, looking over his shoulder and all around.

"He was eating lunch in the cafeteria, right?" Marth asked Zelda.

"Yeah. Falco said he saw him. But then he disappeared now...how could that be?"

"Link has been assigned 10 seconds to report to the teleporters, or Kirby wins on default! 10! 9! 8! 7! 6! 5! 4! 3! 2! ...1! Link has been disqualified! Kirby wins the match!"

Kirby stood in a daze. Link wasn't in the gym. But where could he be?

"Kirby, did you hear the announcer? You won!" Jigglypuff intruded into Kirby's thoughts.

"Um...yeah, I heard," Kirby said nervously, recovering from his daze.

Ganondorf pushed through the crowd, shoving Kirby aside, taking his place in front of the teleporter. Samus appeared in front of the other, and they jumped into take their match. Kirby watched unconscious, standing with his friends, as the two fighters battled.

"The arena for today will be Brinstar Depths!"

Samus happily appeared down from the angelic platform, accepting the hologram of the roaring Kraid behind them, and the hot temperatures of the flames below. Ganondorf, also happy, jumped down before Samus and laughed loudly.

"Just like Zelda won with her home field advantage, so will I!" Samus taunted.

"But have you forgotten? In the legendary all-star leagues, I battle here! We are both equal," Ganondorf snickered.

"You wish," Samus said, and disappeared in a flash of a rolling dark golden red spinning ball.

A bomb dropped in front of Ganondorf, who jumped away just as it exploded. Turning around, he was met by a vicious charge shot, and was sent flying back into a rock. Right when Samus appeared before him, he released his Warlock Punch. Samus used her Screw Attack to jump back up and attack Ganondorf, who was trying desperately to land a punch on Samus. When the bounty hunter landed, she was propelled back with yet another Warlock Punch.

"Is that all you got? You're pathetic punch?" Samus snickered, sending down a homing missile.

Ganondorf jumped out of the way, and grabbed onto Samus, performing a Warlock Grab, sending Samus flying back, her armor badly damaged.

"No, not really," he replied, the now-familiar evil grin on his face, "But you shouldn't underestimate me for that!"

A worried look appeared on Samus' face as Ganondorf charged forward just as she recovered, and she was shot straight into a pillar, creating massive damage and a shockwave around her. She flashed back to when Link was telling everyone about his most recent fight with Ganon, Ganondorf's "alter-ego", and said just how hard it was. Thank the Lord that Ganondorf couldn't transform into Ganon in Melee!

"Ha! See? You're scared stiff!"

Samus ignored the insults and got up, dashing forward and performing a dodge right in front of Ganondorf, who did a down smash, and missed. Samus used his time of recovery as an advantage and whacked him hard with a fully-charged charge shot from her gun. Ganondorf went flying up into the air, and landed with a loud crash far away. Samus walked over, feeling quite triumphant at her sudden comeback, and before Ganondorf would recover, she quickly did a down smash, and off he went. Done and done.

"GAME!" the announcer shouted for the fourth time that day.

A badly bruised Ganondorf appeared back in the teleporter, and walked off with his smasher friends, Mewtwo, Captain Falcon, Bowser, and Donkey Kong. Samus appeared also, and walked out like a queen. She slowly took off her helmet and took a breath of the nice, cold air in the gym. Her boyish-blonde hair was put up in two small ponytails and held with a pink hairband. She looked quite girlish without her helmet.

"Congratulations!" Ryou walked up to greet the smasher.

"Hiya Ryou," all of the smashers were familiar with the Inuyasha, Yu-Gi-Oh, and LOTR gangs.

"You beat him!" Link laughed, as if believing Samus couldn't do it from the start, "Great job!"

"Ditto," Marth exclaimed, "Very nice! Simple and clean."

Samus smiled at all the compliments. Friends were one of the main things that kept the smashers in line. If one lost, they would be swept away and encouraged on with their friends, and if the other won, they too would be called off to train more. A never-ending cycle.

"The tournament will resume tomorrow at seven o'clock sharp," the announcer informed everyone.

As the smashers and smasher friends filed out of the gym, it became more obvious that Link wasn't anywhere to be seen. Roy acted up once more.

"See! I told you! He killed Link!" tears pooled in Roy's eyes, and he tried to push them back. No warrior should cry.

"Link probably just wasn't into fighting today. Maybe he snuck off on a warp star back to Hyrule?" Zelda inquired, but Roy didn't buy it.

"He was killed! Link is gone!" he shouted once more.

Out of fear that Roy would freak out the other smashers, Kirby, Marth, Zelda, Young Link, Yami, Yugi, Bakura, Ryou, and Legolas all forced him into his dorm with Marth.

"He wasn't killed!" Bakura insisted, "If he was, then I would of known," he glanced down at his Millennium Ring.

Ryou glanced, unimpressed, at his yami and turned to face Roy.

"Also, he would make some noise if killed. People tend to scream, 'ya know!"

One by one, all of Roy's friends called him down. Around dinner, he was back to his normal pyromaniac-ish self.

"It's going to take a while to figure all this out," Marth told Roy's friends while the pyromaniac trained with Mario, "And we need to keep Roy under control, or he'll go insane and kill himself from grief,"

They all nodded. They had to be careful.

Author's Notes: ^^; I would call this more of a teaser than a first chapter. Yes, okay, so what, one of the best characters in Melee got taken of first. Need I remind you of Roy's place in this story? XD Have fun! I'm really into this story. Mwuaah. Also, please tell me what you think of my battle-describing skills. Do I need to research my character's moves and personality more? Etc. etc.? ^_^; Please, tell me everything! Yah!

Please be kind when you review. Thanks.
