Hey everyone! Sorry I was out for so long! Finals and Christmas shopping really do take a lot of time out of me. I promise I'll get right back into this story because I know a lot of you care a lot about what happens next and where some of your favorite fighters may be. Now before I continue, I just want to get some review questions some of you have right out of the way.
The Mii Fighters are original faces, outfits, and personalities that I chose to come up with. However, for the story itself, I decided to put them on Galeem's side because reason 1: It's true everyone can create a Mii fighter but in the story Galeem simply discovered the way to create them first. I'll go into further detail in future chapters. Reason 2: Since the villains are significantly outnumbered by the heroes in terms of the current smash roster, I chose to create an additional force to help Galeem.
As for DLC fighters like Pirahna Plant, Joker, and the other four unconfirmed fighters, I don't intend on putting them in this story (sorry if you were expecting them), but that doesn't mean they're out of the bigger picture. 'wink'
For Galeem himself, I made it to where he is an all new form of Tabuu merged with the power of Master Core to where the resulting entity wants nothing more than total purity and domination of the universe.
Now as always, feel free to read, rate, review, like, and fave! Let's get into the next chapter!
Chapter 10:
The mysterious fighter stepped into the light, armed to the teeth with all sorts of advanced weapons. He looked to be around his late thirties to early forties. All the heroes recognized him immediately due to the help he provided a decade ago.
"Snake! You're here!" Shouted Lucas
The covert fighter only responded with a nod as he approached Mewtwo.
"You fought with them before. Didn't you?" Inquired the psychic.
"Yeah. I'm here because I know what kind of trouble is happening." Said Snake. "But first, I need to get rid of that trouble." He pointed his rocket launcher back at the Pokemon. "Starting with you."
Snake then fired another rocket, only to have it deflected back by Mewtwo, hitting a nearby wall. The stealth soldier continued his rocket assault but to no avail.
Ness and Lucas soon recovered and were approaching the psychic with their PSI powers ready for attack. However, two stray drones abruptly stunned them from behind, rendering the two boys unconscious.
Snake decided to throw grenades at Mewtwo. Only to have them deflected as well.
"Give it up, human. You and your primitive weapons and tactics cannot possibly stop me." Taunted Mewtwo.
"I know." Responded Snake. "But him and his overwhelming force can."
Mewtwo then saw a flash of blazing fire come from his right side before he even had time to react.
"Falcon Kick!"
The psychic received a flaming foot to the gut from a fighter who looked to be a racer in his mid to late thirties. He had a tattered blue racer uniform with a yellow scarf and a worn red helmet with a golden bird emblem on the front side.
"Thanks for the save Captain!" Responded Snake. "Let's show this thing what we can do."
Snake kept his distance with more projectiles while Captain Falcon handled business up close and personal. While Mewtwo was distracted with Snake's rockets and grenades, the captain was closing the distance. This gave him the opportunity needed to deal the final blow. "Falcon… Punch!"
This overwhelmingly powerful move left a large and visible bruise on the psychic's chest, rendering him unable to fight back. The Ice Climbers and Red were recovering from the onslaught, surrounding Mewtwo on all sides.
"You can't get up from an attack like that." Declared Snake as he drew a pistol. "Surrender, or we won't hesitate to kill you."
"You won't get the opportunity to defeat me again, fools. I have what I need." Said Mewtwo as he was levitating himself back up to the ship.
The heroes all looked behind to see Ness and Lucas, both unconscious, being lifted by two drones into the silver ship.
"Lucas! Ness! No!" Screamed Red.
"Shoot those things down! Quick!" Shouted Captain Falcon.
"Way ahead of you!" Said Snake as he readied his rocket launcher.
He fired into the sky and successfully destroyed the drone which held Ness.
Red's Charizard, all recovered from the earlier fight, managed to catch the boy unharmed. However, the drone which held Lucas was already entering the large ship.
"Lucas!" Shouted Red. "Hang on old buddy! I'm coming!"
Red then called on his Charizard as he dropped Ness safely back onto the ground, and rode on him in an effort to catch up to the ship, successfully managing to board it through an open compartment just as it was ready to take off.
The rest of the heroes were looking up at the ascending ship.
"Godspeed, boys." Encouraged Snake "Let's hope you two make it back in one piece."
As Ness was recovering, Captain Falcon helped him up. "Thanks Captain. Where's Lucas?"
Snake then chose to reluctantly respond. "We… were unable to rescue him in time. He got captured and… Red went after the ship in an attempt to free him." Uttered Snake. "However, I believe those two will be okay."
After some tearing up, Ness calmed down. "You're right, Snake. I have faith in him and his friend. I saw that their bond was inseparable since the Subspace War. I really believe both of them will make it out alive."
"Let's get you all on the Falcon Flyer. We need a plan against this 'Galeem' fella everyone's talking about." Said Falcon.
Ness, Snake, and the Ice Climbers all found a seat in the bird themed jet while Captain Falcon took the pilot's seat.
"So where are we going next?" Inquired Ness.
After some contemplation, Captain Falcon decided on a destination.
"One of the tracks I used to race on. It's currently abandoned, so it'll serve as a necessary base of operations and refuge."
"I have no problem with that." Said Ness. "Is everyone else okay with that?"
The Ice Climbers nodded in agreement while Snake gave a little thumbs up.
"Alrighty then!" The captain then made his way over to the voice control panel and pressed a button.
"Computer, give us the fastest route to Mute City."
