Super Smash Bros adventures chapter 41
Mario arrived at a world where it's full of darkness and nothing else. "Glad that you accepted my challenge, ." happily says Hades.
"Enough with the chat." says Mario, doing some stretches.
"This battle will finally show me that power of yours." says Hades, doing some stretches also.
"I don't know what power you're talking about." says Mario, who's confused on what Hades is talking about.
"Maybe something went inside of you and you didn't know a thing." says Hades. "I've been sensing that power of yours for quite a while now."
"If this power of mine is real then I won't use it against you or anyone." says Mario. "I will only use my power and that's final."
"You have to use that power of yours some time, ." says Hades. "And I'm not leaving until I see it."
The battle between Human and Devil is now beginning.
Hades starts the battle off with a giant Punch. Mario jumps away and landed a fury of Punches and Kicks. "That tickles." says Hades.
Hades Kicks the ground, sending Mario flying. Mario landed back on his feet. "If my normal state won't hurt you then my giant self will."
Mario takes out a Giga Mushroom he receives from Luigi and ate one. Mario slowly grows and now is the same size as Hades. "Aaahhh, now we're talking."
Mario and Hades charge at each other and clashes with their fists. They both exchange Punches and Kicks until they both landed a Punch to each other's face. Hades strikes at Mario with a Kick. Mario dodges Hade's attack and landed a Punch, sliding Hades back. Mario strikes another Punch at Hades. Hades ducks under Mario's attack and Hades landing a Punch, sending Mario sliding back. "Not bad." says Hades, grinning.
"Not bad yourself." says Mario, tilting his head left and right.
Hades shoots out hordes of Magic Missiles at Mario. Mario jumps over the missiles and throws his Fireballs at Hades. Hades runs aside from the fireballs and Mario throws a Punch straight to his chest. Hades chest turns into a drill and Mario stops his attack. "Nice reaction." compliments Hades.
Hades attacks Mario with his Magic Missiles at Mario. Mario runs away from them, but the Missiles keep falling him. Hades appeared in front of Mario and Punches him into the Missiles. "Aaahh!" Mario cries in pain.
Mario gets back up, then Mario shrink into normal size. "Dang it. Next one." says Mario, as he eats another Giga Mushroom and grows again.
Hades attacks Mario with hordes of Fireballs. Mario starts running away from them , then Hades appeared in front of Mario, and attacks him with a fist. Mario dodges, grabs Hades, and uses him as a Shield against his Fireballs. "Aaargh!" Hades cries in pain.
Mario grabs onto Hades's legs and Tornado throws him, sending him flying. "Nice trick." says Hades, getting back up.
"I'm just getting started." says Mario.
Mario covers his hands with Fire and charges at Hades, Hades surrounds his hands with Dark Energy and charges at Mario. Mario and Hades both clash with strong Punches that they both send themselves flying. Mario got up and charge at Hades. Hades starts spinning around and turn into a Tornado. "What the?" surprisingly says Mario.
"Let's see if you can escape this!" says Hades, as he starts chasing after Mario.
Mario runs from Hades, but the Tornado gets closer until Mario feels the wind on his back. Suddenly Hades stops and Mario sees him stunned and dizzy. While Mario has the chance, Mario goes to up to Hades and throws him up. Mario follows it with his Air Mario Tornado, and follows it with a powerful Air Punch. Hades slowly gets up, and then Mario landed some Punches and follows it with a strong Punch, sending Hades sliding back. Hades covers his hand with Dark Energy and Punches the ground causing a big earthquake. Mario jumps up and Stomp on Hades preventing him from moving. "I can't move!" says Hades, struggling to escape.
While Mario's on top of Hades, Mario surrounds his hand with Fire. "Looks like this is it." says Mario. "This is what you get for destroying the Smash mansion and hurting my friends!"
Mario strikes a full force Fire Punch on Hades. "Aaarrrgh!" Hades cries in pain. Mario shrinks back into his normal self. "Did I beat him?" wonders Mario, slowly panting.
Suddenly Hades slowly gets back up. "That was close." says Hades, slowly getting up. "I'm happy that I get to fight you."
Hades starts gathering up a lot of power until his face turns into Blue Flames.
"If I can't get to see you use that power of yours then I will take it from you!
Good bye, Mario." says Hades, getting ready for his last attack.
Hades charges up his power and fires powerful blasts of lasers. Mario tries jumping out of the way, but he doesn't have the energy to. Hades lightning blasts hits Mario causing a big explosion. The Smashers heard a loud noise. "What was that?" wonders Robin, panting,
"It's coming from Hades portal." says Cloud. All of the Smashers went into the portal and found Mario lying on the floor in bruises. Everyone was in complete shock and couldn't believe their best fighter is defeated by the likes of Hades.
"Mario!" sadly yells Luigi and Peach.
"It can't be." shockingly says Samus, taking off her helmet.
"Is Mario, dead?" wonders Bowser.
"Mario!" yells Link and Pit as they run to check on him.
Link puts his head on his chest and listens to Mario's heart. Link turns shocked after learning that Mario's heart is not beating "Mario is dead." sadly announces Link.
The Smashers turn shock after hearing Link. Most of the Smasher put their head down, punch the ground, and tearing up. "I can't believe this." sadly says Palutena, falling on her knees tears slowly falling off her eyes. ""Mario!"
"I'm sorry killing your Hero everyone." says Hades, as he starts laughing.
All of the Smashers turn mad and all got into their fighting stance. "We're fighting you next." says Link, getting his Master Sword out of his sheath.
"You're going to pay, Hades." angrily says Pit.
"Ooooohhh new challengers." says Hades. "I'll kill you guys next right after I take away Mario's power.
"We won't let you!" angrily says Luigi, as all of the Smashers attack Hades.
Hades sent each one of the Smashers with his Punches and Kicks and heads straight to Mario. All of the Smashers are badly injured. "I'll fight seriously after I take Mario's power."
Hades about to grab Mario when suddenly, Palutena stands in front of Mario, and lets herself get caught. "Lady Palutena!" cries Pit.
"Pretty Palutena, are you trying to get revenge for your fallen boyfriend?" asks Hades.
"I won't let you get Mario's power even if it cost me my life!" angrily says Palutena.
"Being a hero for your hero huh?" says Hades, as he starts crushing Palutena.
"Aaaahhh!" cries Palutena.
"Lady Palutena!" cries Pit.
"Hear that, Pitty Pat?" asks Hades. "Your Goddess is being crushed by the hands of me."
Hades continues crushing Palutena enjoying the sounds of her crying. Hades begins laughing until he was sent flying from a powerful attack. Hades lets go of Palutena and Ike caught Palutena from falling. "Are you ok?"
"Yeah." replies Palutena.
Palutena, Ike, and the other Smashers look where Hades flew at. "Ok, who did that?" Hades angrily wonders, slowly getting up.
Hades looks around when suddenly, a person with Dark Energy around him Kicks Hades in the chin, sending him flying up. "Who is that?" wonders Olimar, slowly getting up.
The Smashers can't keep up with the person's speed since he's knocking Hades like a pinball machine. Palutena looks closely and sees the person surrounded in Dark Energy is Mario. "Mario!"
All of the Smashers turn surprised. "Is this the power Hades is talking about?" wonders Dark Pit, helping Shulk up.
"He's so fast and powerful." says Ganondorf.
After another powerful hit, Hades was sent flying back o the ground causing the ground to crack. Hades looks up and sees an evil version of Mario looking down on him. "This is what I've been looking for." he says and grins.
Hades begins gathering all his power for one final attack. Mario gathers up his Dark power and flames to combine into one and made a giant ball of dark flames. "Your power is mine!" angrily yells Hades.
Hades fires giant bolts of lightning at Mario and he throws his attack at it. Mario's giant ball of dark flames completely devours Hades attack and hits Hades, slowly buring him into a crisp. "Aaaaarrrrrgggggghhhhh!"
Hades looks at Mario again and smiles. "I now let you do my job for me."
Right after the attack Hades is gone. All of the Smashers are in complete shock that Hades is gone and Mario's new power. "Hades is gone." shockingly says Dark Pit.
The Dark Energy surrounding Mario vanishes away and he falls to the ground. "Oh goodness, Mario!" says Palutena.
Palutena got her staff and releases power. "Power of clouds!"
A cloud as size as Mario, was made and Mario landed on it. Palutena runs to Mario and put her head on her chest. "How's Mario?" worryingly asks Luigi.
Just a few seconds, Palutena hears Mario's heart beat. "Mario's ok!" she happily announces.
After hearing what Palutena said, the Smashers smile and all cheer for Mario's revival. Palutena looks at Mario then tears slowly fall on her face and she gives him a big hug. "Thank goodness!"
"Mario saved us again." says Robin.
"I'm so glad he's ok." Peach sighs in relief.
Just then, a Smash portal forms in front of them. Everyone rushes in, wondering if this is Sakurai's doing. The fighters look around and see that their beloved mansion is one hundred percent repaired.
"How did this happen?" wonders Shulk, gazing at the miracle before him.
"Surprised?" Sakurai asks, striding up to his Smashers. "My employees and I prepared for something like this, and made a special device that restored the Smash Mansion in just a few seconds.
"That's amazing." says Falco.
"I see Mario is out cold." Sakurai remarks.
Some Smashers shift uncomfortably while others nod.
"That Plumber is stronger than I thought." says Bayonetta.
"I never seen Mario release a powerful fire attack like that." says Corrin.
"You can tell me all about the fight later," Sakurai says. "For now, someone ought to take Mario to the infirmary so the doctor can treat his injuries."
"I'll do it." says Palutena, who is still carrying Mario in her arms.
Sakurai nods. "In the meantime, let's prepare a celebration for our victory over Hades and the Underworld army."
"Oh, now you're talking!" Pit cries.
The other Smashers cheer, and immediately get to work, but not all of them are so sure that celebrating is a good idea.
"Mario has sure gotten stronger…" Luigi says.
"Yeah, but what was that strange power Mario used?" Roy asks, hanging some blue and goldstreamers. "I've never seen it before in any of his fights."
Some of the fighters look at each other and shake their heads uncertainly.
"Its… gotta be a good thing, though, right?" Pac-Man asks. "I mean, it helped Mario beat Hades…"
"But, Mario didn't seem like himself when he was fighting," Zelda says, spreading out a cloth on one of the round tables in the ballroom.
"Wonder what it could be." Shulk says, fingering the Monado's hilt. "Could it have came from one of his past missions?"
"Maybe, but which one?" Roy asks. "He's done so many!"
"Maybe Sakurai might know something about it." Shulk suggests. "We can ask him tomorrow." The Smashers continue decorating the ballroom.
Luigi strokes his mustache in thought. "I hope my bro's okay…" he whispers to himself.
Meanwhile, Palutena takes Mario to the infirmary with Dr. Mario at her heels. Once Mario is in bed with medicine on his injuries, Dr. Mario leaves to help the other Smashers.
Palutena looks down at Mario. He looks so vulnerable in this state, and she wants to protect him, to care for him, especially after all he has done. "Thank you, Mario." she thinks to herself.
