Disclaimer: Hi...not mine...hmph....
A/N: Yeah a few things...(Readers who read the top A/N's groan) Shut up.
1) That wasn't the ending! I wish it was.
2) The Story will have no more killing like you saw in chapter 1-9...Yes, it is no longer a "Horror" story...Boo-hoo... It will become an Action/Adventure/ um...something, later. Or maybe, I'll just write a new story for the second part. We'll see.
3) I can't write this story without adding humor...DAMN IT!!! 4) After this chapter, I'm taking a break to try and work this humor stuff out of my system in my Weakest Link story.
5) I forgot all about Luigi and his fear...It WAS supose to be ghosts...damn it... AHAHAHAA! Oh...this is gonna turn into a 'AU' story, much later though. Want preveiw of what I mean? Hehe.
6) Romace?! With an OC?! Eww...I hate OCxNon OC's, but I never would flame them. I just wouldn't read em.
7) The killer's vessel is gonna be seen next chapter.
8) ...We're gonna be leaving The nintendo platform for this story...so hold on!
9) What the biggest Clue that it was Mag? Go back and read Master Hand's death again, then look at a picture of Mag.
Fear Itself
Chapter 11- The Prologue
---Living Room-
(A/N: Yes, it only took 10 Chapters before the Prologue...n.n)
"My name is Arina." Said the woman, stepping into the house.
"Why should we believe you?!" Bowser bellowed.
Arina shrugged. "You're just going to have to trust me, Bowser."
"You know my name?!" Bowser asked shocked.
She nodded and replied, "Master Hand told me alot about all of you. Bowser, Fox, Kirby, Jigglypuff, Luigi." Arina stepped inside. "Now, shall I explain whats going on here, or do you want me to leave."
"Please tell us!!!" Fox nearly screamed.
Arina smiled, sat down and began her long story. "I come from a long line of magicains within my family. They had a speical name for the magic they used, but I never learned what they were called. Anyway, my grandfather discovered this magical staff, The Staff of Light, one day while doing research." She said, holding up the white rod in her right hand. "It past to my father, but he refused to stay a magicain and sealed it away. One day, I opened the door by mistake and I found the staff. It showed me a vision of some sort, and my father said to ignore it. But it kept getting stronger and stronger till, one day, I left with my brother to go to the where the vision had told me. When we arrived, we fought a giant purple wolf (A/N: -Cough- Um...know what it is? XD) who dropped another staff. My brother took it and left me. I never saw him again. When I told my grandparents, ones who still were magicains, they told me that it was The Staff of Darkness (A/N: Creative names eh?), which was full of evil. It took over his mind, and soon it consumed his body in darkness..."
"That's all well and good." Kirby said, holding Jigglypuff. "But what does it have to do with us?"
"My brother is the killer, Kirby. His body was destroyed, but his spirit found refuge within a boy named Mag Launcher. Mag came to a Smash Brothers Trial, and when he lost, my brother was able to take full control over him during his drepressed state. My brother comanded him to return his staff, which was under my faimly's control at the time. Mag gave it my brother, who was now living within the darkness of his own heart." The Smashers listened on with confused faces as she countined. "My brother needed to get living people's engery in order to return his own body to him, through the only way he knew how, killing. He decided that, since his spirit was at the moment bound to Mag, he should start killing off the people that he hated, you guys. First, my brother erased Mag's memory and called him 'C'. C stood for Cyframe. He left Mag's body and took over one of the Smash Brother's body. The first one he saw." (A/N: And just how does she know all this? Um...just go with it n.n''')
"So one of us has a spirit of a dead guy who is bent on killing us all living inside us?" Asked Luigi and his answered was nod.
"My brother's vessel knows he or she is the vessel He or She wanted to get revenge upon all of you, which is why his spirit was attracted to them, however, who my brother chose, I do not know. When I sensed the first death, I left my home and got here as fast as I could. But I sense my brother's power is growing and soon he will have his old body back."
"How do we stop him?" Asked Fox.
"I'm not to sure."
---Hallway-
(A/N: Is it all coming together?)
"Pikachu, is anyone out there?" Link asked Pikachu, as the little mouse stuck his head around the corner.
Pikachu peered down the dark hallway. He only saw the light of the moon, coming through a window at the far end of the hall. "I don't see anyone." Pikachu told the swordsman, and they began to walk down the hallway towards the living room. "Do you think the others are okay?"
"I hope so..." The two of them walked quickly and quitely down the hallway.
Just as the disappeared into the shadows, Marth and Samus arrived at Link's door. Samus knocked and asked, "Link? Are you there?" No responds. "Link?" She asked, pushing in the door. The light was on, but no one was inside.
"That's funny..." Marth said, entering the room. "He's not here..."
"Look! On his bed! It's a note!" Samus said, running to pick up the note. Marth prayed that it wasn't the type of note he thought it was, and to his relief, it wasn't. "It says that the killer is Mag Launcher..." Samus told the prince.
"Really?! So that means, Link isn't dead!" Marth cheered.
"Let's go tell the others." Samus said, leaving the room followed by Marth.
---Living Room---
"You have no idea?" Asked Kirby. "But...but...Then are we all just gonna die?"
Arina shook her head. "No. My brother knows I'm here, so he will move into his second phase." She said. "He will bring us into the darkness of his heart, were he will finish us off one-by-one, until his body is at full power...but that is only if he has killed enough people..."
"Which I have!" All of the Smashers in the room looked around for where the voice came from. "Don't bother looking for me, you'll see me soon enough."
The room began to fill with swirling black smoke and fog. It started from the center of the room, and began to spread all through-out the living room, the hallways, the rooms, until the entire Smash Brothers House was covered in a black mist.
---Unkown Area---
Link opened his eyes. The last thing he had remembered was a blast of black smoke and Pikachu letting out a scream. Was he dead... "Ugh..." He stood up and looked around. He saw Marth, Samus, Bowser, Kirby, Fox, Falco, Luigi and a strange woman looking up at a figure who was surounded in darkness. Link took a few steps closer and noticed who they were staring at.
TBC
A/N: AHAHA!!! Yes...I am so evil. We've got more question now! Why are those nine the only ones who survived that black mist? Who are they staring at?! WHO IS THE KILLER'S VESSEL!!! ITS TIME TO FIND OUT!!!!! After a short break. Oh, BTW, Sorry it was short
Purple Monkey: You are a bad au-thor.
Dragon's Return: Shut up. I thought I killed you.
