Sorry for the lack of update. (Gunshot) But college is hard.

The last group of warriors are invited

Location: Renais

Eirika and Ephraim were amending to affairs after their kingdom had fallen. They were new to the throne so it was fairly difficult for them. Nevertheless, their people were glad it was them who were doing it. It was one winter afternoon that they were going to be caught up in this. A Renais knight, named Franz, came up to them.

"Sir Ephraim. Lady Eirika," he said.

"Good day," Eirika said.

"What's going on?" Ephraim asked.

"Well, it's a funny thing," the knight began. "Remember the Demon King's monsters?"

"Something I would never forget," Ephraim shivered.

"Well, anyway. A Cyclops was near here. But it's the strangest thing, it didn't attack. It just handed me a message and suddenly disappeared."

"What was the message?" Eirika asked.

"The message was that you two are invited to a fighting tournament. It's by someone who is named 'The One.' Who knows what it might be."

"Did it say where the event was taken?"

"No it didn't. But it did say that to enter this tournament you must head into the woods. Your highnesses, this could be a trap."

"We'll take it," Ephraim said.

"What?" His sister responded. "Are you sure?"

"Well, reconstruction of the continent is almost done. I think we deserve a break. Also, whoever this is thinks highly of us. To participate in a fighting tournament is like a dream. I know I sound a little selfish but I have to do this."

"Well, then count me in too." Eirika said. "Who knows. I could beat you."

"It's just something we'll have to see."

Location: The original location of Greil Mercenaries.

Ike, now the new leader of mercenaries, was going over the fights he had all over the continent of Tellius. Even after he had the chance of being general of the country of Crimea, he preferred the life of a mercenary. His coworkers, people who were with Greil Mercenaries since day one and people who joined after the war, couldn't agree more.

This day was a slow day however. With the Crimean guards handling the job of stopping bandits from attacking the villages, the mercenaries were unneeded for awhile. Mist, Ike's younger sister, saw someone strange. An old, gray woman came up to her. Titania, the mercenaries' second in command, walked up to the old lady.

"Can we help you?" Titania asked?

"Yes," the old lady began, "I'm looking for Ex General Ike. I have a message for him."

The old woman gave the girls a letter. "Tell him to give him my regards."

The girls looked at the message.

"Excuse me miss…." Mist started, but when she looked up, the old lady was gone.

"Where did she go?"

"I don't know," Titania admitted. "But we better give this to Ike."

Titania and Mist found Ike in one of the huts. Ike and Soren were talking about the continent's repairs. They showed Ike the letter. It was a letter to a tournament.

"Wow. Somebody thinks I'm worthy enough for a tournament!" Ike said.

"You were general of the country, you defeated an invincible knight, and you defeated a mad king that used the dark amulet," Soren sullenly said.

"Always the same, aren't you? This may be my big chance to increase my sword skills some more," Ike said.

"Aren't you scared?" Mist asked.

"No," Ike answered. "I am pretty sure not everybody else who are in this tournament would be heartless savages. Anyway, this note told me to head toward the borderline of Crimea and Gallia. I'll be off."

Ike packed some belongings of his and took off.

Soren simply said "Good luck, Ike."

Location: Mute City

Kent Akechi was holding up the gold trophy. He had just won another race. The crowd celebrated and tickertapes were flying everywhere. Kent waved to his audience with pure joy.

"With my MkII, nothing can stop me from victory," he shouted as the crowd roared.

A news reporter managed to catch up to Kent.

"Kent, you've just won another Cup in the Classic Cup series. What are you going to do now?"

Kent looked at the camera.

"I'm going to compete in a fighting tournament. I just got an invitation from someone named "The One" that I'm invited. If I'm successful, my fighting skills will be as good as my racing," Kent said.

"Where is it at?" The reported asked.

"Well, the note said I should go to Big Blue. From there I am supposed to find a way. But don't worry. I'll fight my opponents in this tournament and win," Kent announced.

"One more question and the world is wanting to know this. Are you Captain Falcon's son?"

"That's something you'll have to find out for yourself. Later!"

Kent has jumped in his car and sped off with screaming fans behind him.

Location: Final Destination

The two hands were watching everybody they invited head to their areas they were suppose to go. Master Hand chuckled.

"Finally," he started. "Not only will I have control of the universe, but I will also have a worthy trophy collection!"

Master Hand always wanted a collection of action figures of powerful fighters. That's how the first Smash Bros. tournament started. Wanting control of the universe didn't come until some after.

The Crazy Hand twiddled around. "And I will begin my ultimate destruction in existence. How I love it!"

Crazy Hand always had this hollow feeling of destroying. Even if it was destroying its own creation. "How much longer?"

"Soon. But first, we must disguise ourselves. The Eskimo duo and the artificial Pokemom will recognize us in an instant."

At the snap of their fingers they transform into different creatures. Master Hand had took form of an alien that had human shaped upper body with the lower body of a dear. His fake body was covered with blue fur and had a scorpion like tail. The face consisted everything human like except it didn't have a mouth. On top of the head were antennae with eyes on them.

Crazy Hand had a simpler form. He was human or rather human like. He had mainly human features. But on his back, were a pair of bat wings. The left hand's form's ears were also bat like.

"Now let's sit back and watch the beginning of total conquest," Master Hand simply said. And they both took off.

Well all the fighters have been invited. Who knows who will win. But the will fighting won't start for awhile. The contestants must first meet other and everything else. Until then...
