And thus begins the Tokyo arc. As I have said back in earlier chapters, the ape-like Simeon (or Black Hole) aliens from the Showa Godzilla series were supposed to be the villains here, but I decided to change it. The villain here will not be a Dark Agent or a Dark Lord, but rather, a powerful henchman of the only Dark Agent left.
Team for this arc: Fox, Falco, Samus, Dr. Mario, Mewtwo, G&W, Popo, Nana, Parry
WORLD NAME:
TOKYO
Chapter 27: Entering Tokyo! The Evil Duo of Low Intelligence!
It is a peaceful day in the countryside of Japan…
All of a sudden, a warp star comes crashing in, like in previous chapters, and breaks the peacefulness.
"Another rough landing," says Samus, getting up from the crash. "I wonder when they will make warp stars that don't crash."
"Be happy that we're still alive," Falco tells her.
"So this is Japan?" asks Popo. "I have always wanted to come here!"
"But this doesn't look like the capital city," says Nana.
"It's because we're in the outskirt," Mewtwo tells her. "We still have to walk to the city by ourselves."
Suddenly, a teen about 16 years old appears in front of them. He is wearing a yellow shirt and black pant, and he has a yellow spotted bandana tied around his head. Behind him he carries a large backpack and a large red umbrella. "Um, excuse me… Do you know the way to Tendo Dojo?"
Fox, being a nice guy, replies to him, "I'm sorry to tell you, young man, that we're new here, so we don't know where that is."
"Never mind. Thanks for your reply anyway." The teen turns around to leave.
"Hey wait! That's a…"
"YAAAAAAAAAAA!" screams the teen as he falls down a cliff.
"Cliff…" says Fox, finishing what he was going to say.
"Oh no! We must help him!" says Dr. Mario.
"Don't worry, he'll survive the fall," Mewtwo tells him. "He has built his body to the extreme, and plus, there's a lake down there. Surely, he will survive the fall."
The teen falls all the way down and into the lake with a big splash. A few moments later, a small black piglet swims up to dry land.
Back on top of the cliff, the Smashers are trying to figure out where they are.
"So where's Tokyo?" asks G&W.
"I thought you came here before," Falco tells him.
"But that's a long time ago. Plus, I don't even what is this place we're in."
"I have an idea!" says Dr. Mario. "Parry will fly up and tell us what he sees!"
"I'm glad to be able to help!" says Parry happily. He flies up into the sky and looks around him.
"See anything up there?" Samus shouts out from below.
"Yes. I see endless span of forests and a large mountain in the horizon."
"Do you see any architecture?"
"What's architecture?"
"Buildings!"
"Yes! Towards the south!" Parry then flies back down.
"How do you know it's the south?" Popo asks Parry.
"Animals have instincts that let them know which way is which," Mewtwo explains to him. "And by my calculations, Tokyo is approximately 60 miles towards the south."
"Is there any way to get there faster?" asks Nana. "60 miles is a long walk! We'll be there by nighttime!"
"Perhaps we can use the warp star?" states G&W.
"I'm sure we can," replies Fox. "But at the risk of more crash landing. But why not?" Having said this, the Smashers and their 'faithful' parrot Parry got back onto the warp star and took off. The warp star moves toward the south at tremendous speed, and before they know it, it crashes hard into a statue and stops.
"Whoa! We're in Tokyo already!" says Samus. "That's so fast!"
"Um… I think we just destroyed a public stuff," says Dr. Mario, looking at the broken statue pieces. Just then, a police officer walks up to them. Dr. Mairo immediately falls onto this knee in front of the police. "We're sorry for destroying this statue! We'll hold responsible for it!"
"Calm down," the police tells him. "I'm actually glad you destroyed the statue of Barney the Dinosaur. This statue has struck fear on whoever saw it. We have always wanted to tear it down, but no one has the courage to do it. I'm really thankful that you got rid of it for us."
"Of course! We're such helpful people!" says Falco with pride. Suddenly, they all hear loud police car sirens. A few moments later, they see police cars rushing across the street.
"There's a case!" says the police officer, and then he runs after the police cars.
"I wonder what happened?" says Samus.
"Why not follow them?" suggests Fox. The Smashers run in the same direction of the police cars.
The Smashers finally caught up with the police cars, which stopped in front of a restaurant called Ucchan. Several people are crowded in front of the entrance. Dr. Mario walks up to the crowd and asks one of the people there, "What happened here?"
"A murder case," the person replies. Dr. Mario walks through the crowd to see, and is shocked upon the sight of the dead body! The victim has several cuts and bloody holes on his body! He quickly runs back out of the crowd.
"What did you see?" Popo asks him.
"You'll get nightmares if I tell you…"
"Someone is dead in a bloody fashion!" Parry shouts from the air.
"Oh, then I don't want to see it," says Popo.
A police officer is asking the owner of the restaurant, who apparently is a young and cute girl. "So can you explain what happened?"
"Well… There were these two people arguing with this person, this dead one, about some case. I think it has something to do with being a girl or boy. They got into a very fierce argument and the two attacked him. One of them pulled out a sword and the other pulled out a weird gun. Then that's how those two killed him. And look, they left a note on the table too!"
The police officer takes the note from her and reads it. The note says:
Let this be a warning to whoever says the person in this photograph is a woman. He is a MAN.
Yours truly,
Thundon and Bob Fungus
The police officer looks at the photograph, which shows a person wearing heavy armor. The person's face looks every way like a woman. "This is clearly a woman… And the murderers… Thundon and Bob Fungus!"
The police officer turns to the crowd and new reporters and says, "The murderer is clearly Thundon and Bob Fungus, and I'm sure most of you have heard about them. They are rank-A criminals from the distant country called Foolurene. That country is known for people with extremely low intelligence. Those two stupidly argued with this dead person here about the gender of this person in this photograph, which clearly is a woman. But those two insisted it's a man and killed him because he doesn't agree."
"What the heck…?" Samus murmurs to herself.
"Thundon and Bob Fungus were able to escape capture for many times. They are very good in concealing themselves and escaping. They will kill anyone who does not agree with their ideas. They claim they are very smart when they can't even tell the difference between a car and a cheeseburger."
"That's just insane…" thought Popo.
"The case is closed for now," continues the police officer. "We will try our best to track down Thundon and Bob and put them behind bars. You don't have to panic."
After all the crowd and news reporters have left and the dead body is taken away, the owner of the Ucchan restaurant runs up to Game & Watch and greets him, "Nice to meet you again, Game!"
"Me too, Ukyo! You've grown more beautiful since we last met!" says G&W.
"Don't say that, you're making me shy!"
"You know her?" Falco asks G&W.
"I thought I told you this already. Her father and I have been good friends for many years. I knew her when she was only 6 years old. I last saw her about a year ago."
"I remember!" says Samus. "In case you don't remember, then read the story Old Time Friends to refresh your memory."
"Do you and your friends want to come in and have some okonomiyaki?" Ukyo asks them. "Since you are my friends, I can treat you for free!"
"Never mind," says Fox. "We just had a bite before we left."
"I want to!" says Nana. "I want to taste this so-called Japanese pizza!"
"It's not pizza, but quite similar," Ukyo replies. "Then come in!" Nana and Popo happily runs into the restaurant. The other Smashers just shrug and they follow them in.
Inside the restaurant, the Ice Climbers are having their meal. Dr. Mario asks, "What is that country Foolurene the policeman said?"
"It's a country that lies somewhere in the east," replies Mewtwo. "As the policeman said, that country is filled with dumb people."
"How dumb are they?" asks G&W. "That policeman said those two can't differentiate between a car and cheeseburger."
"The record of the dumbest person there was one guy who married a coconut tree."
"LMAO!"
"And the latest news says they used a bowling ball in a soccer match instead of a soccer ball."
"That's painful for the foot!"
"The worst can also be the one about the guy who tried to do it with a computer CPU on the bed."
"There should be a limit to how dumb a person can be!" exclaims Falco.
"They did what in bed?" asks Parry.
"What people do to have offsprings," replies Dr. Mario. "But let's not get into detail."
"I don't understand…"
"Then it's best you don't…"
"Speaking of their dumbness, I also heard one about how dumb Fools are," says Ukyo while cooking some okonomiyaki for her other customers. "They say that in a school exam, a student from Foolurene was stuck with the math problem two plus two!"
"Two plus two is four!" says Parry. "Even a parrot knows it!"
"But since he's a Fool, he doesn't know the answer! It is said that he was stuck with that answer all the way until the end of the exam. He had the write something fast, so he wrote down Mt. Rushmore as the answer!"
"Man! That kid must be really dumb!" exclaims Nana.
"Let's not forget about our mission, guys and gals," says Fox. "Ukyo, do you know anything about Darkling?"
"No,"
"Then have you encountered any strange black monsters lately?"
"No,"
"Oh, never mind…"
"Ukyo, how's the Tendo house doing?" G&W asks her.
"They're good as ever!" she replies. "My Ranchan is getting more handsome by the moment!"
"Good to hear that..."
After the Ice Climbers finished their meal, the Smashers leave the restaurant. G&W pays Ukyo the fees for the meal, even though she insisted that it's free for them in the first place.
"So we're going to visit your old friends?" Falco asks G&W.
"Yes, I want to pay them a surprise visit," he replies.
After some walking, they got to the Tendo Dojo.
"Here it is!" says G&W.
Suddenly, they all hear a loud shout, "RANMA! YOU IDIOT!" Then the roof bursts open and a pig-tailed boy shoots out and up into the sky.
"What was that!" gasps Fox.
"Something that commonly happens, I think…" replies G&W. They walk up to the main door and push the door bell.
The door opens and a young woman steps out. "May I help you?"
"Kasumi! Remember me?" says G&W.
"I do, Mr. Game & Watch! It's a surprise to see you at this time! Come in! Dad will be happy to see you!"
Soun and a panda are happily playing shogi (a chess-like game) in the living room. Kasumi comes and tells him, "Dad, Mr. Game & Watch and his friends have come to pay a visit."
"Game, can it be?"
"Of course it's me! Soun!" says G&W as he comes into the living room.
"Why, Game! It's a surprise to see you! Come in and sit!" says Soun happily.
"I'm Samus, do you remember me?"
"Yes, you came here with him last time!"
"I'm Fox McCloud."
"I'm Falco Lombardi."
"I'm Popo, and this is my sister Nana!"
"I'm Dr. Mario! Don't confuse me with the other Mario, who is a plumber."
"Mewtwo is what you shall call me."
"I'm just an ordinary parrot named Parry!"
"It's great to know you all! Now sit and enjoy!" says Soun.
Meanwhile, in a secret hideout somewhere in Tokyo, lies the base of some evil people. A green robot walks into the throne room and kneels down in front of his master. "Master Yamatoman, the Smashers have come to Tokyo."
"So they're here," says the samurai-like robot Yamatoman. "So Lord Wily is right after all. He said they will surely come and destroy the Dark Reactor here. He gave me an important mission, so I must not fail him. A warrior never fails his master. And where are those two new recruits?"
"Yes, they are coming." At this moment, the door opens and two people steps in. One of them is a large muscular man wearing a yellow shirt and blue jeans. His hair seems as he haven't cut it for 10 years. It should be noted that on his shirt is the words Thundon. The other man is a bit less muscular and he wears a green shirt and ragged jeans. He has green hair for some strange reason. On his shirt, it says Bob Fungus.
"You two, I have a big mission for you both," Yamatoman tells them.
"We will gladly accept the mission and strike down those who are not fit to live in this world," says Thundon.
"So will I," says Bob. "I am at your service!"
"You guys better not fail. Your IQ is one of the worst I have ever seen."
"We may not be smart, but our powers are not to be underestimated," says Thundon.
"Right, we excel in fighting more than anything else," adds Bob.
"Then go and kill the Smashers!" orders Yamatoman as he throws them a photograph of the Smashers. "Nine of them are here in Tokyo. Hunt them down and kill them!"
Thundon takes a look at the picture and says, "Yes, we will not fail you." Then the two Fools got up and left the room through the window.
"Are you sure we can rely on them?" the green robot asks Yamatoman.
"We'll just wait and see. And by the way, have you found HIM yet?"
Who? Oh, him! We're still searching, since the radar hasn't shown anything yet."
"Then find him quick. We must do it before the Smashers find the dark reactor."
TO BE CONTINUED…
Thundon and Bob Fungus are two of my OC. I thought about putting in a strong but dumb villain, so I came up with them. Those names are taken from someone I know you are very stubborn and ignorant, but I completely made up their descriptions.
