VII. THE PRELIMINARY ROUND

Everyone was in the stadium. Nana and Popo were freezing rocks. Donkey Kong was practicing his punching. Roy and Link were sword fighting. Pikachu was shocking random people. Zelda and Peach were talking to eachother, and eyeing all the other men.

"That Roy there is cute." Said Peach. "But that Captain Falcon is soooo muscular. Ooohh." Zelda giggled.

"You better hope Mario doesn't hear that."

"And I hope Link doesn't find out about your li'l crush on Marth." Peach winked.

"Just because we had coffee together doesn't mean anything. Link was sitting right there anyways."

"But you weren't talking to him." Peach teased. Zelda loved Link very much, but it had been so long since she had seen so many other people. After all, she seldom left the castle. Just then, the two Smash Brothers strolled into the stadium. All the chatter stopped, and everyone stopped what they were doing.

"Thank you all for being here today." Gerald said. I hope you slept well."

"Today, we will begin training!" Ronald said. "We will randomly pair you up with someone else, and you will have a one minute fight, just to see where you all stand."

"Now let's see here," Gerald said looking at the smashers. "Ah yes, Peach please step up."

"Good luck." Zelda said as Peach walked towards Gerald.

"Now, if you please draw a name from this hat." Peach reached in. She moved her hand around a bit. Then, slowly, she pulled out a little slip of paper. She unfolded it to find written in fancy writing:

Nana and Popo

This should be a cinch! Peach thought. Peach and the Ice Climbers walked into the arena.

"Ready? Go!" Ronald and Gerald shouted. Peach dashed towards the Ice Climbers, planning to kick them into the air. Nana and Popo had a different idea. The last things Peach saw before she froze were little blue and white snowflakes. She flew into the air, and landed on the ground, trapped in a solid block of ice. The two Eskimos proceeded to beat her with their hammers. Even though she was in a block of ice, the blows from the hammers were as strong as they would be without the ice barrier. The ice shattered and Peach was a little more than pissed off. She whipped out her parasol and smacked the Ice Climbers a good one. They flew to the other side of the arena. "Sweet!" Peach exclaimed. The seconds ticked away. The princess and the Eskimos exchanged punches and kicks until…

"Time!" Gerald yelled as he ringed a bell. Peach was flat on the ground after another ferocious beating.

"I do believe Nana and Popo have won." Ronald said. The other smashers applauded. Peach limped over to Zelda.

"Are you okay, Peach?" Asked Zelda.

"If I ever lay my hands on those two again…" muttered the princess of the Mushroom Kingdom.

"Next! Captain Falcon!" The F-ZERO racer walked up to the hat. He peeked into the hat, shifting the paper around. He was obviously trying to find someone he knew he would beat. However, Ronald and Gerald didn't seem to care.

"That dirty cheating little…" whispered Young Link to Kirby.

"Ya, I know."

"Haha!" Said Falcon triumphantly "Princess Zelda, please stand up." He smiled and gave a wink to the princess. Adult Link's face grew hot.

"He thinks he can beat you?" said Peach, "What a retard."

"Oh well. I'll try to make this as quick as possible." Zelda said. She and the racer walked into the arena. At the signal, Zelda and Falcon both leaped into the air. Zelda kicked her foe.

"OW! DAMMIT NOT THE BALLS!" screamed Captain Falcon as he dropped to the ground. The other guys gave a big "Oooooooohh," as the girls rolled on the ground in hysterics. Zelda then grabbed Captain Falcon and threw up in the air. She then set him ablaze with her magic. In the sixty seconds of the fight, Zelda got not one scratch on her. The bell sounded, and Captain Falcon was curled up in a ball on the ground groaning.

"Zelda is the winner!" said Ronald. "Next is Ganondorf. The tall Gerudo man stepped up to the hat. He reached in and pulled a paper out.

"Y-y-yong… L-lii……." Said Ganondorf. Unfortunately for him, he never went to school.

"Oh give that here you fool." Said Gerald, and he snatched the slip from Ganondorf's hands. "Young Link! You're up!"

"Oh crap." Link said.

"Don't worry, Link, you can do it!" Kirby said. Link and Ganondorf stepped into the arena.

"Ready? Go!" Ganondorf jumped into the air, but Link shot him down with an arrow. Enraged, he dashed over to Link and punched him a good one. Link hit the ground.

"GANONDORF YOU BITCH!" yelled Kirby. Some of the other smashers looked at him and he blushed. "…Hi!" he said as he did his cute little taunt. Meanwhile, Link nabbed Ganondorf with his Hookshot and started beating the shit out of him. At the battle's end, it was declared a draw. Two-by-two, all the smashers faced off against eachother. Bowser vs. Donkey Kong, Mewtwo vs. Fox, Link vs. Mario, Jigglypuff vs. Pichu, Ness vs. Marth, Yoshi vs. Luigi, Falco vs. Kirby, Dr. Mario vs. Pikachu, and Roy vs. Samus. By noon, everyone was exhausted and ready for lunch.
