Super Smash Bros adventures chapter 22
The following afternoon, Mario and Luigi are sitting on a picnic bench under the branches of a shady tree at the park eating candy that Luigi won from the Halloween tournament. "I thought the bag would be smaller." says Luigi. "This bag of candy is almost as big as Bowser."
"I know!" Mario agrees. "What's even more shocking is that you're almost finished with it."
"Hey Mario, Luigi!"
The two plumbers glance up in shock at the voice calling out to them. "Hi, Robin." Luigi greets as Robin and a few other Smashers walk up to them.
"What are you guys up to?" asks Mario, unwrapping a Jelly Candy from Luigi's bag.
"I'm heading out on a mission with Link, Pit, Charizard, and Little Mac, and we need one more person to join us." Robin explains. "Would you be interested?"
"Sure." Mario says after a moment of thought. "Luigi, I'll be going now."
Luigi nods. "Okay, just be careful… Oh, and take some candy with you guys! I don't think I can finish the bag on my own!"
Robin and the others happily oblige, and, their pockets full of sweets, the six mission participants head back to the Smash mansion.
"So, what's the mission?" Mario wonders, twiddling his fingers on account of how much candy he had eaten.
"Since it's almost Black Friday, Link wants to go on a giant boss battle to earn a lot of money and buy a special gift for Zelda." replies Pit, dumping a mini pack of Sour Patch Kids into his mouth.
"It's been a year since we started dating and I want to buy her something really special." Link explains.
"I get you. "Little Mac agrees. "Maybe I should buy something for Wii Fit Trainer."
Everyone smiles at Mac.
The boxer sees this and tries to hide the fact that he's turning as red as a strawberry. "I mean just as friends." He adds on quickly, laughing nervously, and shoves a lollipop into his mouth.
"Come on! Let's get going." Charizard suggests before things can get even more awkward. The six of them catch a Smash portal to the Pokémon world.
"Okay." Charizard says once the portal deposits the Smashers on the grass of a meadow. "We're going to the Sky Pillar to fight Rayquaza."
"Fox, Falco, and Diddy Kong faced it before during the Subspace Invasion." says Link. "This thing's not something to mess with."
"Rayquaza is a legendary Pokemon." Charizard explains. "It may be more powerful since it might have a mega evolution."
"What's mega evolution?" asks Robin, sorting through his magic tomes.
"That's what happens when Charizard breaks the Smash Ball and turns into that massive blue fire dragon!" Pit explains.
"Oh, is that what that is?" Robin asks, dawning a look of comprehension.
After a while, they reach the Sky Pillar, ruins that the Legendary Pokémon lives in,
"Is this place where Rayquaza is?" wonders Little Mac.
"Yeah. Be careful." Charizard warns.
They are walking in the silence, which is pressing in all around them like fog, when suddenly-
"Robin! Watch out!" Link tackles the tactician to the ground just as a powerful ball of energy sails over his head, taking Link with it, and explodes behind them, sending rock and shrapnel flying into his face.
"Link!" Robin coughs and sputters to clear the dust from his lungs. He stands and turns around to see that Link is knocked out cold.
"Whoa! That's Rayquaza?" Pit stammers, pointing to a giant green dragon snake thing flying towards them, letting out a furious roar that shakes the entire pillar.
"That thing is huge!" Little Mac screams in terror.
"This Pokemon is really powerful, so we must work together." says Charizard.
"Right," everyone else agrees, drawing their weapons and gearing up for the fight.
Pit stays in distance and fires blue light arrows and Robin summons blast of fireballs at Rayquaza. The giant green dragon Pokemon flies up and attacks the angel and tactician with a powerful Hyper Beam from his mouth. Pit and Robin barely dodge it, Rayquaza flew up to them in a blink of an eye, and hits them with a powerful tail swipe, slamming them down onto the hard
rocky floor.
"Aaargh!" Pit and Robin cry in pain.
"Pit, Robin!" worryingly calls the little boxer.
"This Pokémon really is strong." Mario compliments on the Legendary Pokémon.
"Let's attack together." suggested Charizard.
Mario, Little Mac, and Charizard charge at Rayquaza. Rayquaza fires a deadly Dragon Pulse at the three. They dodge Rayquaza's attack and Rayquaza fires a deadly Hyper Beam at them. Mari goes in front of them and reflects the Legendary Pokémon's attack with his Super Leaf Cape. The beam attack hits Rayquaza causing him to fall down on the ground. Mario, Little Mac, and Charizard go all out on the dragon Pokémon while it's out. Mario hits the Pokémon with his Fireballs, Little Mac landed strong Punches that can knock out a Boxer, and Charizard landed sharp claw slashes.
Rayquaza flies back up, turns into his Mega Evolution, a bigger and scarier version with orange like streamers, and shoots a fast Dragon Pulse at Mario, Little Mac, and Charizard. Charizard flies up and Rayquaza's attack hits Mario and Little Mac directly and causing part of the ground to collapse.
"Aaahhh!" Mario and Little Mac scream.
"Mario, Little Mac!" worryingly calls Charizard. "I must go all out now."
Charizard reacts to his Mega Stone and turns into his black and blue Mega Evolution. Rayquaza attacks Charizard with a vicious tackle. Charizard flies over Rayquaza and attacks him with blue flamed Flamethrower. Rayquaza flies above the black and blue flying Pokemon and attacks him with multiple tail swipes. Charizard dodges the Legendary Pokémon's attacks and attacks Rayquaza with his sharper claws. Charizard slashes Rayquaza on the back and landed a Dragon Claw attack, which is super effective on Rayquaza.
While Rayquaza is down on the floor Charizard decided to end things with a powerful blue flamed tackle. Rayquaza flies up, dodging Charizard's attack, and landed a close range Dragon Pulse right in the face, causing Charizard to take a lot of damage. Charizard is down on the floor and looks beaten up quite badly. Rayquaza charges up his Dragon Pulse to end Charizard. Suddenly an explosion hits Rayquaza's face. Charizard turns his head where it came from and found Link and the others standing up.
Robin charges up his thunder magic and fires a giant bolt of lightning at Rayquaza. Little Mac goes up to the Pokemon and landed lightning speed punches and follows it with a strong Uppercut. Pit charges at Rayquaza and landed a powerful blow with his arm weapon, sending Rayquaza flying up. Mario jumps onto Rayquaza and landed a powerful burst of fire from his hand, sending Rayquaza back down. Charizard slowly gets up, covers himself with blue flames, and attacks Rayquaza with his Flareblitz. Rayquaza didn't have the energy to move and took Charizard's powerful attack.
"We did it!" Charizard cheers as everyone else cheers for their victory.
The Legendary Pokémon slowly gets up. "Huh, what happened? Where's Team Rocket?" Rayquaza looks around wondering what happened.
"Team Rocket? What are you talking about, Rayquaza?" asks Charizard.
"I thought I see five Team Rocket members trying to capture me. But all I see are people that aren't from here." replies Rayquaza.
"It seems that you were mind controlled or you were having a nightmare." says Robin.
"That's right. When I took a nap here a few days ago I was dreaming that I was in a war with a lot of Pokémon fighting off Team Rocket. And I see a big Bat creature that's not a Pokémon." says Rayquaza.
"A big Bat creature?" Mario thinks to himself.
"Was the Bat creature purple and have yellow eyes?" asks Mario.
"That's right and it seems he can turn into little bats." replies Rayquaza.
"It must be Antasma, but how is he alive?" Mario thinks to himself.
"Anyway. Thank you for helping me getting out this nightmare. I reward you all with a bag of Big Nuggets." Rayquaza thanks the six heroes.
"Are these chicken nuggets?" wonders Pit.
"No. These are rare items that can be exchanged for a lot of money." replies Charizard.
"When you come back Charizard, let's have a real battle." says Rayquaza.
Charizard smiles at Rayquaza. "I'll be looking forward to it." says Charizard.
The Smash Portal appears and the six Smashers head back to the Smash mansion.
