The smashers find themselves in the portal room at the castle, safe from the falling skyscraper. "Is everyone here?" Peach yells out.
Everyone looks around. "Yeah, everyone is here." Captain Falcon says.
Ness is over by a wall, looking quite sad. Zelda walks over to him. "Don't worry, Ness. We'll defeat them. And everything will be back to normal." She says.
Ness simply nods his head. "So... how will we learn their next move?" Fox wonders.
"Already done." Samus says.
"What?" Falco asks.
Samus explains herself. "Back at Fourside, I was able to scan Ganondorf's essence when I had him in my grappling beam."
"Really? That's excellent!" Luigi says.
"Do you know where they are now?" Kirby asks.
Samus presses a button on a keypad on her arm plate. A screen projects onto the nearby wall. Some words appear:
CLIENT: Ganondorf Dragmire
SCANNING...
...
PROCESSING...
...
NOT FOUND.
"Hmm. Seems he's not anywhere yet." Samus says.
"Think we should wait?" Ness asks.
"We won't have to for very long! Look!" Peach says.
Samus' scanner is now blinking HYRULE where NOT FOUND used to be. "Hyrule again?!?" Link yells.
"Oh dear! They must be going back to cover lost ground!" Zelda says.
"I'ma on it!" Mario says, as he rushes to the wall panel.
Soon, Hyrule appears in the picture frame. Link and Zelda rush through it immediately, and the others follow right after.
The group appears in Hyrule Field, near the entrance to Kokiri Forest. The Kokiri Forest entrance is in shambles, and is blocked by fallen trees. It seems the forest is already demolished. "No! The Kokiri children!" Link says.
"You'll have to forget them, Link. There's nothing we can do." Zelda tells him.
In the distance, Hyrule Kingdom looks in distress. The group begins running toward it. Just then, a Peahat pops out of the ground, and tries to chase them. "A Peahat? But we got rid of those long ago!" Link says.
Just then, the dark mist comes flowing out of the Kokiri Forest, and overtakes the Peahat. The Peahat promptly passes out, and the mist remains surrounding the forest entrance. "Whoa." Captain Falcon remarks.
"Come on, let's hurry!" Luigi says.
The group reaches the kingdom, but the drawbridge is up. Samus fires a laser beam at one of the metal chains, melting through it. She then does so to the other side, and the drawbridge comes falling to the ground, breaking in half on impact. The groups heads over it and into the kingdom, where buildings have been toppled. Villagers lie all around, hurt. Some villagers are trying to revive some of their families. Zelda goes to one of them. "Oh dear... who did this?" Zelda asks.
"Oh, it was one of those awful flying hands again," The villager replies, "only this time a strange creature was with him."
"That must be Mewtwo." Peach says.
Another villager speaks. "They went to the castle, Princess!" He yells.
"Oh no! My palace!" Zelda says.
The group starts going toward the castle. The castle is now shrouded in darkness, and is completely black. "Ganondorf has taken it. It's his once again." Link says.
"But wherea did they go now?" Mario wonders.
"I can answer that." An unknown voice pops out.
The smashers look around for who said that. Link spots him. "Kapora!" He says.
Sure enough, Kapora Gabora the owl is standing in a nearby tree. "Greetings, warriors. Don't you all look strong." He says.
"Do you know where they went, Kapora?" Link asks.
"You bet I do. One of those dreadful hands and that strange creature are in the castle right now. That awful Dragmire and the others apparantly were heading to Termina." Kapora explains.
"Termina again?" Falco says.
"We have to stop them." Fox says.
"Thank you, Kapora." Link says.
"Oh it's my pleasure there, Hero of Time." Kapora says, winking.
Kapora then flies off in the distance, soon disappearing from sight. "Alright. We'll have to split up to cover more ground." Samus says.
"Link. You know where Termina is. You'll have to lead a party there. I will try and take back my castle." Zelda suggests.
"Falco can I can help you infiltrate the castle." Fox tells Zelda.
"And I can help. We can try and make a sneak attack on Mewtwo." Samus says.
"Sounds like a plan. Who's coming with me?" Link asks.
"I can. My PSI may come into use." Ness says.
"I can take us there on a warp star!" Kirby says.
"Excellent idea!" Mario says.
"Well what are we waiting for? I'll tell you how to get there, Kirby." Link says.
Kirby prepares a warp star. "Good luck, Zelda." Link says, as the warp star zips off.
"Alright. Let's hurry." Captain Falcon says, as they group heads toward the castle.
Once there, Zelda instructs them to the right side of the castle, where deliveries are usually made. "We can get in through here. They may not expect it." Zelda explains.
They enter through the door, and follow a corridor to one of main halls. "Let's not enter through there. It's probably watched." Samus says.
"I know of a secret passage. It's through the walls. It leads straight to the top." Zelda says.
She instructs them to a wall that seems out of place. The stone slab slides, opening to a passage. They head down the passage, and Falco closes the stone door. The passage winds rather easily up the castle, and finally comes to an end. Fox pushes open the stone door and peers inside. It's the throne room, only trashed. "There seems to be no sign of life here." Fox says.
The group enters. "Took you long enough." Someone says.
They look over, seeing Mewtwo and Master Hand. "Did you really think you could just sneak in here and catch us off guard? We're much more craftier than that." Mewtwo says.
"Enough talk! Restore this castle now!" Fox says.
"Fat chance!" Master Hand yells, and begins to fly toward the smashers.
Meanwhile, the warp star lands with a flash. The warriors are now in Termina Field. "Well, we've definitely made it." Link says.
Several explosions are heard. Clock Town is well under attack. "I shoulda have known we'd be too late." Mario says.
"Those people..." Link says.
"How will we get in? Look! The nearest entrance is blocked. I'm sure the rest are." Peach says.
Link looks around. Then he sees the observatory. "There! The observatory! There's a secret passage there!" He yells out.
The group runs over to it. Once inside, Link notices the old man is nowhere to be found. He leads the way down a rainbow colored staircase, and into the sewers below Clock Town. Some skulltulas pop out, but Link slashes them away, reaching the entrance into town. The town is in shambles. Buildings are either toppled or burning. The group runs through out Clock Town, until reaching West Clock Town, where they discover Crazy Hand terrorizing a few of the civilians. "CRAZY HAND!" Link yells, lunging.
Crazy Hand moves, and swings at Link, missing. Peach then comes up behind Link and knocks Crazy Hand backward with her golf club. Crazy Hand flies off, put the group pursues him. They end up in the plain of North Clock Town, where Crazy Hand, Bowser, and Ganondorf await them. "I don't know how you meddlers keep tabs on us, but it's really getting annoying." Bowser says.
"So. How did you like the remodeling I did to the castle, Link?" Ganondorf says.
Link turns red with anger. "Link! Control yourself! You can't fight when you're feelings are ablaze!" Ness tells him.
"So. ArE yOu ReAdY fOr ThE pAiN?" Crazy Hand asks, as he comes charging toward he group.
