Fox: Oh great! Computer simulation or not, I was a pushover!
John: Oh brother...now who's got the ego trip?

A Smashing Story - A New Foe?
Kabol couldn't believe what he was seeing. This new opponent looked like Master Hand, but moved much differently than he had seen before. The giant hand made a grab for Kabol. He dodged out of the way, then taking a strike at him. The hand flinched back. He then launched himself upward, and dropped down on top of Kabol. He shook him off, and then prepared for his next attack. Kabol did not like the look of things; if this kept up, he might lose a few "lives".
Kabol quickly made a double jump, unleashing a volley of punches on top of the hand. He was suspended in the air, as each punch created a sort of slash, like a sword. It cut through the hand, and a series of explosions dissipated it into nothing. Once the battle was over, Kabol was instantly teleported back to the practice room.
"What happened?" Kabol asked Master Hand, who was already standing there, waiting for hit return.
"Oh, I'm sorry Kabol, I should have warned you..." he said. "My brother...Crazy Hand, he is well, he used to be my partner in business here, but then something just snapped...and well, he went off the deep end. That was him, he must have inserted his data into the computer as a virus. It brushed me aside, and then went after you. I'm so sorry for not telling you this earlier," he said in disgrace for withhold the information.
"It's all right. He was tough, tougher than I had expected. But...I did some kind of weird move. What was that all about?" Kabol asked with a puzzled expression.
"Oh!" Master Hand exclaimed. "I almost forgot, you see, that was your own special move. You have three types of moves. Smash moves, special moves, and a save move. Smash moves are usually just normal powered up attacks, with some exceptions. The save move is an attack that goes upward, in an attempt to either hit the enemy, or save you from falling off the arena, and special moves, are moves that are unique to you. You have discovered your air special move. You have a ground one as well," he explained with satisfaction. "I must say, you have far exceeded my expectations. You will do well as a replacement."
"Hmm..." Kabol mumbled. "May I ask, who I am replacing?"
"Certainly," he answered smiling. "Samus Aran had to take an extended leave of absence. Duty calls you see, she is an intergalactic bounty hunter after all."
"I see..." Kabol paused. She had some pretty good moves, he thought to himself.
"Well, I was afraid of this, but it seems like I will have to remove Crazy Hand from the castle." He sighed, "and it was going so well to, I thought I was bringing him out of it, but now this..." he started to walk out of the room. "Oh, and by the way, Kabol."
"Yes?" he answered.
"There is someone I'd like you to meet," he said, presenting a man in golden armor, and a red cape. His hair was red, in a sort of messy fashion He held a long sword sheathed on his belt.
"Yo," he said casually.
"Roy?" Kabol said in surprise.
"That's me," he said, pointing at himself, eyes closed and a grin full of teeth.
"Wow, your skills at a swordsman are really great, I can't believe I am meeting you in person," Kabol said, smiling, and bowing.
Roy waved his hands fervently, "No, no, c'mon," he said, sticking a hand out. "Name's Roy all right. Pleasure to meet you Kabol."
Kabol looked down at his hand in surprise, then shook it promptly, and smiled. "That computer simulation of you doesn't do you justice. I look forward to a chance for a match with you."
"Well, sounds good, now that you are a full fledged smasher," Master Hand said with a smile.
"Really? Thank you, Master Hand, it is an honor," he said, taking Master Hand's hand.
"Well I have some work to do, why don't you show Kabol to his room and maybe around the castle, Roy? I'm sure Kabol is dying to see the other smashers as well," he stated with a wink.
"Sure thing, boss," Roy replied with a two finger salute from his forehead. Master Hand then walked down the hallway, leaving Roy and Kabol on their own. "So," Roy said, turning to Kabol. "You like sparing?" he said with another grin a mile wide.
Kabol returned the grin, just as long. "Sure, but I'm a little tired, and I'd like to unpack my things," he said, starting to look around. "Say, where did they go?"
Just then, Roy clapped his hands, and the man who greeted Kabol at the door appeared. "Yes, master Roy?"
"Have Kabol's things brought up to room 204 will you? Kabol will be residing there, in the men's dormitory of course."
"Right away, sir," he said, and with that, left suddenly out of sight.
"What in the?" Kabol looked at Roy, baffled by the butler's display.
"He he, that's Alfred, yeah I know, common 'butler' like name, but he's cool. He used to be a smasher, then got too old. His special move was teleportation, kind of like Shiek, but shhh," he hushed, and spoke quietly, "Zelda doesn't like it when people talk about her alter ego," he whispered with a smile. "So! Let's get over to your room, you can unpack, and then I shall give you the grand tour!" he slung his shoulder around Kabol, moving him down the hallway, and making small chatter with him.
A few minutes later, they reached the men's dormitory, and proceeded down to the second floor.
"The men's dormitory has only two occupied floors, since there are twenty men in total, ten per floor, and the girl's dormitory is only one floor occupied, since there are only six of them. Of course, the men's dormitory exists two floors up, so the second floor is actually the fourth floor of the castle, it can get confusing from time to time."
"Wait...six girls? Then you mean," Kabol stopped.
"Yep, Jigglypuff and Pichu are both female pokemon. Pretty strange, huh?"
"Not really," Kabol said.
"Hmm, well anyway, there are vacant rooms in both dormitories, for that reason. Currently we have a three floors for both women's and men's dormitories. Samus of course isn't here right now, so her room is empty. Anyway, here we are," Roy said, bringing Kabol up to 204. "And right next to my room too," he gave Kabol a playful slap on the back, and opened the door. "Well, I'll let you get settled, and maybe tomorrow we can have the match, eh?"
"Maybe," Kabol said, a little beat.
"All right, breakfast is at 7:00 a.m. sharp, so don't be late!" he called, as Kabol shut the door.
"I won't," he answered back. When he walked into the room, he found his belongings already inside. "Amazing," he said to himself. He began unpacking, placing his clothing in the oak dressers. Everything is such expensive wood, he thought. Then placed a few objects, such as pictures and statues upon the other desks in the room, to give it a more homey feel.
While rummaging through his things, he found a small trophy. "Oh, this is the one I got from the tournament!" he said excitedly, and quickly examined it. It was a small stone statue of a human-like creature, but almost had a bird like head, with a beak for it's mouth, and it's two claw-like hands were holding a small orb in them. He looked underneath the stand and it read: "Chozo Statue, for those who seek greater knowledge and lore".
Kabol marveled at the statue he had been given, when he suddenly noticed a small notch on it's base. It had tallied his first win...
Soon, Kabol succumbed to a yawn, placing the statue upon the desk, and switching off the lamp. He didn't bother to change his clothing, and instead plunked right onto the bed, falling asleep.
