*Bzitp!*
*CRASH*
"CRUD!", a voice yelled as he removed his welding helmet and threw it across the room. The figure was Giygas, and he was working on the secret project that he and Ganondorf were planning. Unfortunately for him, the next step was hard since he was the only one working on it. It was not that Ganondorf wouldn't help him, but he couldn't; the Gerudo wouldn't risk getting caught and having everything backfire on him. Giygas then stepped back as he sat in his seat and spun around while looking at his precious blueprints. Although the Universal Cosmic Destroyer was very intelligent, he was no welder, let alone a builder.
"Urgh...how am I supposed to fix all of this in a short amount of time?", Giygas asked himself as he scratched his pencil on the blueprint design before lowering his head and sighing.
"And what to do this those?", he groaned as he looked behind him and saw the billions of boxes stacked in the room. He then threw his pencil away in frustration before picking up a bottle of water and began drinking from it. It was all so perfect, but now the plan was in danger from the alien's incapability to forge everything together. However, the villain would not be dismayed. He then leaned forward in his chair as he put his hands together and went into deep thought of the matter.
"Hmm...what can I do?", he asked himself. After a few moments, the alien grinned evilly before standing up and surveying all of the boxes in front of him.
"Ganondorf, you better tell the others real soon or this could end badly..."
*Yawn*...oh...another busy day...", Mario said as he went down the hallway to the kitchen. The plumber had been up late the previous night and was helping Master Hand plan some new ideas for the new tournament. They had discussed some things like new arenas or equipment, but for now it was the same old, same old. Due to staying up those extra hours made the mascot of Nintendo very drowsy, the only thing that would wake him up right now was a good old cup of joe. Mario then made his way to the kitchen door as he opened it and entered in.
"Oh, good-a morning bro!", Mario heard as he turned around and saw Luigi, Peach, and Shulk fixing breakfast. Peach then smiled as she waved at her husband.
"Good morning honey!", she said as Mario gave a warm smile back at her.
"Good-a morning Peachy-poo!", he said before looking at Shulk and raising an eyebrow at the Hom.
"Shulk, do-a you cook as well?", Mario asked.
"No, but I am learning. You know me, I always want to study something new.", Shulk explained as Mario laughed and nodded his head.
"Oh, okay! Just-a listen to Luigi or-a Peach if you need help.", Mario advised as he went over to the island table stand to where the coffee was held. Mario then bent down and opened one of the drawers to get the coffee filter when he heard the door to the dining room being pushed open as stomps were felt in the room.
"Why are you all just goofing off in here? Make my food!", a Texan voice shouted. Mario then groaned to himself as he got on all fours and crawled over to the edge of the island table and peaked his head out behind the edge. At the doorway were King Dedede, Bowser, and Mewtwo, King Dedede and Mewtwo looking angry while Bowser gave a small smile for whatever reason.
"Hurry up you lazy humans! I want my breakfast now!", Mewtwo demanded.
"Shut up Mewtwo! Besides, I'm not human...kind of.", Shulk said as the psychic Pokemon glared at him.
"Go sit-a back down! It will-a be out in a minute!", Luigi said as Mario noticed his brother's face having the expression that he was ticked off. Suddenly, Bowser took a small step forward as his little smile grew bigger.
"Peach...you look lovely today...", Bowser said. Mario then widened his eyes as he facepalmed himself while avoiding the villain's eye contact.
"Oh no...", Mario said to himself. Although the plumber and Peach had been married for two months by now, Bowser would still try to get Peach to return his love to him. Bowser would accuse Mario of brainwashing Peach about the truth of what had happened between the Koopa and the princess and even claimed that Bowser Jr. was still the son of both of them. Although the whole mansion knew this was a lie aside from Bowser Jr., the Koopa never let down as he tried and tried again to win the princess's heart. Mario was then about to stand up when he heard Peach clear her throat.
"Bowser, stop trying to make me love you. It's over. Me and Mario are married and have been married for over two months, give it up.", she said firmly, yet calm and cool.
"No! That plumber has lied to you! He did not marry you! You are married to me!", Bowser said.
"Bowser, everyone aside from you and your son were at the wedding. Ask Mewtwo and King Dedede yourself!", Shulk said.
"No! Peach, listen to me, the plumber has taken you captive!", Bowser said.
"Like how you kidnap me?", Peach sarcastically asked. There was a brief moment of silence before the Koopa made his response.
"No, I was trying to save you, there's a difference!", Bowser exclaimed as he grinned and lifted one of his clawed fingers up.
"Save me from what?", Peach asked, getting more and more curious about what Bowser was rattling on about. Bowser then grinned at her as he pointed at her.
"I don't know if you have heard of this, but there's this thing called Stockholm Syndrome. Mario has been keeping you captive and due to how long you two have been together, you believe that you truly have feelings for him.", Bowser explained. Peach then gasped as Mario held onto his mouth, the Koopa literally said that Peach had Stockholm Syndrome! Mario felt a fire build up in him as he thought on those words while Bowser took another step forward.
"So you see? Mario has..."
"SHUT UP BOWSER! HOW COULD YOU LIE ABOUT SOMETHING LIKE...LIKE THAT!", Peach yelled before she picked up one of the pans from the stove and flung an omelette that was still being cooked right at Bowser. Bowser did not have enough time to react as the omelette splattered across his face and went into his eyes, burning them in the process.
"AHHH! PRINCESS, WHY!? I'M TRYING TO SAVE YOU!", Bowser yelled in pain as he fell to his knees as King Dedede and Mewtwo ran over and helped him up by placing his arms on top of their shoulders.
"Hold on Bowser! We'll help you!", King Dedede said as the three then stood up while Bowser wiped the eggs from his eyes, the eyeballs being blood-shot red after being burned. Mewtwo then glared at the princess as he helped Bowser stand up on his own.
"How dare you!", Mewtwo yelled.
"I know right! Those eggs were nearly done!", Shulk complained.
"Shulk! Not-a now!", Luigi said as Shulk then nodded his head and faced the three villains. Bowser then began to cry as he gave Peach a sorrowful face.
"Why Peach? Why would you hurt me? How would you think Jr. would feel about this?", Bowser cried.
"JR.!? JR.!? HE ISN'T EVEN OUR CHILD! HOW COULD YOU LIE TO HIM!? WHY ARE YOU ALWAYS KIDNAPPING ME AND WANTING TO MARRY ME!? WHY!?", Peach yelled at the top of her lungs. The room then went quiet for a few seconds, tensions were all high as Mario did his best not to show himself, making sure nothing else would go wrong. Suddenly, the door to the dining room opened as Bowser Jr. walked in with a confused look on his face as he stepped towards his father.
"Uh...Momma...is everything all right? Every... everyone is waiting on their...", he began. Peach then looked at the Koopaling before shooting her head back and glaring at Bowser.
"YOU SEE!? WHY WOULD YOU LIE TO HIM!? WHY DO YOU INSIST THAT I AM HIS MOTHER!?", Peach cried out.
"SILENCE!", Mewtwo yelled back.
"SHUT UP MEWTWO! THIS ISN'T YOUR BUSINESS!", Peach snapped at the Pokemon. Mewtwo's eyes then began to glow blue as objects in the room began to suddenly levitate. Mario then realized that he had to step in before things got out of control. Mario then stood up as he cleared his throat loud enough to get everyone's attention.
"Hello there.", Mario said as everyone snapped their heads to him. After a few seconds, Bower then looked at Peach and glared at her while pointing at the red-clad plumber before pushing King Dedede and Mewtwo away from him.
"SO, YOU HAVE BEEN HIDING HIM FROM ME THIS WHOLE TIME! WHAT DID HE SAY!? WHAT DID HE THREATEN YOU WITH!? DON'T WORRY! I'LL TAKE CARE OF HIM! JUST DON'T BE AFRAID ANYMORE!", Bowser yelled.
"She wasn't-a hiding me. I had just-a came in here for some coffee before you three stomped on right in-a here and began trying to convince her that I was-a her kidnapper.", Mario testified. Bowser then deepened his glare as smoke came out of his nostrils.
"So, you were eavesdropping!? How dare you try to justify yourself for your actions!", Bowser roared as he pointed a claw at Mario. Mario kept a cool face on as he pointed right back at the Koopa King.
"And how does-a lying about how Jr. is your child get-a justified!?", Mario inquired. Bowser's eyes then burned with anger before he threw his arms into the air.
"IT'S NO LIE! HE IS OUR OFFSPRING! HOW MANY TIMES MUST I TELL EVERYONE THIS!?", Bowser yelled.
"Where's the proof?", Mario asked.
"HE IS THE PROOF!", Bowser yelled as he pointed at Bowser Jr. Suddenly, Mewtwo placed a hand on the Koopa's shoulder before closing his eyes and shaking his head.
"Bowser, there is no way he is both your's and Peach's son. If we looked at his DNA, he would have no traces of Peach's. Stop this charade now, it's over.", Mewtwo advised.
"NO! I WON'T STOP UNTIL ME AND PEACH ARE TOGETHER AGAIN!", Bowser yelled. King Dedede then stepped forward and placed a hand on Bowser's other shoulder and patted the Koopa's back.
"Bowser, just stop. Mario and Peach are married. There's no denying it anymore. There's no proof that Mario is a kidnapper. It's just the way it is.", King Dedede said. Bowser then looked at the penguin in the eye before a few tears fell down the Koopa's cheek as he looked back up at the princess.
"But I can't. I mustn't. I need her.", Bowser said.
"Bowser, it's over. Now let's get out of here.", Mewtwo said before shooting a glare at the heroes and princess as he and Dedede began to lead Bowser out if the kitchen while Bowser Jr. looked back at Peach and began to shed a few tears.
"Momma, why...why do you hurt daddy like this?", Bowser Jr.
"Jr., let's go.", Mewtwo commanded.
"Yeah, we don't want anymore problems about children.", King Dedede said. Bowser then looked up and turned around and pointed at Princess Peach.
"Wait, does he plan to have any children?", Bowser suddenly asked.
"Bowser, enough with the questions! First, no I'm-a not planning to have-a children. Second, I...", Mario began.
"Mario, we are going to have kids.", Peach suddenly bursted out. Mario then turned around and shook his head at her.
"Peach, I-a know you want us to have-a kids, but...", Mario began.
"There are no 'buts' about it Mario, we are going to have children.", Peach interrupted, her voice getting a little more agitated than before. Mario then gave a stern look at her while Bowser had a little smile on his face.
"See? He doesn't think about what you want. I will give you anything princess!", Bowser said.
"Bowser, let's just go.", Mewtwo said as the four villains then exited to the other side of the door. After a few seconds, Mario and Peach then looked at each other sternly while Luigi and Shulk backed up in fear.
"You see!? He'll-a use that to his advantage about why we are a bad couple!", Mario said.
"Excuse me? You didn't have to say anything else about it or argue with me!", Peach shot back. Luigi and Shulk then gulped as Mario was taken back before making his stare even more stern.
"We are-a not having kids! We are already too-a busy with the tournament and you would-a be out of it for so long! Just-a take a look at Falco! He has too-a much stress on him since this is-a the ninth month of his girlfriend's pregnancy! Even then, we have-a too much to worry about when we get back to the Mushroom Kingdom! There's-a simply not enough time!", Mario said as he slammed his fist on the table countertop. Peach then crossed her arms and glared at her husband.
"Oh, I just thought you would want one after all those times we slept together before we were married! We've broken the rules so much, and Master Hand only thinks we've slept together, not been naughty! Tell me Mario, were you wanting children before we were married, or are you just afraid of taking responsibility?", Peach suddenly snapped. Mario's eyes then widedned, the whole room was quiet for a few seconds before a ding was heard.
"Oh look! Breakfast is done...eh heh...come on guys, let's get it out!", Shulk said with an awkward smile as he and Luigi began loading things onto the food cart as Peach joined them.
"Okay, at least they will be happy with something!", Peach said as she looked at a flabbergasted Mario and stuck her nose up in the air as she and Shulk went through the dining room door as Luigi stepped over to his brother.
"Mario?", Luigi asked as he was about to place a hand on his brother's shoulder. Suddenly, Mario then threw his hands into the air as he began slamming his fist on the table countertop a few times.
"WHO DOES SHE-A THINK SHE IS!? SHE IS THE ONE ALWAYS KIDNAPPED, AND I-A AM THE ONE WHO ALWAYS RESCUES HER! WHY DOESN'T SHE KNOW-A HOW MUCH I RISK FOR HER! SHE'S-A NOTHING BUT A...", Mario yelled.
"MARIO! CONTROL YOURSELF!", Luigi said sternly. Mario then let his hands fall down as he drooped his head down in shame.
"Oh... you're-a right Luigi. I just-a can't stand it...", he said sadly.
"What is-a it bro? It's okay, I'm-a here to listen.", Luigi said. Mario then raised his head as he gave a sorrowful look.
"I just-a don't want her to go through anymore pain. It's-a already stressful enough that we have another tournament right after this-a one, we aren't getting any breaks. And right after that-a one, we head back home, only to find a mountain pile of-a work to do, day after day. I'm-a afraid something might-a happen to her.", Mario confessed. Luigi then patted Mario's back as he gave a warm smile to his brother.
"It's-a okay Mario, there's nothing wrong with looking ahead. It-a only gets bad if-a you let this worry cloud everything else that is-a good from you. You still would-a have each other to be with.", Luigi encouraged. Mario then gave a sympathetic smile to his brother.
"Thank you Luigi, but I'm-a not sure if I can do that right now.", Mario said.
"Don't-a worry, find something else to help you be more-a encouraged. Now, let's-a go get something to eat!", Luigi said as Mario smiled and nodded his head.
"Yes, let's-a do that.", Mario said as the two then went into the dining room. Due to being somewhat early in the morning, some of the smashers were either in their sleeping clothes or were not there at the moment. Mario then noticed Snake busy eating everything that he could, the villain smashers discussing among themselves at their table, Samus playing with Pikachu, Megaman and Pac-Man talking with each other as they both had a drink to themself, and Ivysaur by himself as he ate an apple. Mario then noticed Peach as she talked with Palutena and Zelda before she noticed him and stuck her nose up again and returned to talking with them.
"Ohh...she won't-a be a happy camper for a while. I-a guess I better find something to-a do without bothering her for a while.", Mario said.
"Hmm...maybe Master Hand will-a need help.", Luigi suggested.
"Hmm...do you think? I-a mean, what happens that causes him grief?", Mario asked. Suddenly, Pit dashed into the room as he began searching around for food. The angel then noticed Snake with a large pile food before rushing over towards him and leaned over his shoulder as Snake glared at him.
"Hey Snake, can I have an omelette?", Pit asked with gleaming eyes.
"NO! GET AWAY FROM ME! ALL MINE!", Snake yelled before he punched Pit in the face and kicked him in between the legs as Pit screamed as he fell down and cried in pain.
"OWWWWW...LADY PALUTENA!", Pit screamed as the goddess sighed to herself.
"Oh dear.", she said as she got up as Mario and Luigi facepalmed themselves.
"Okay...maybe there are-a somethings wrong with-a this mansion...", Mario said.
"You think?", Luigi asked sarcastically.
"Hey guys, anyone else have a good night rest?", Trainer Red asked as he, Squirtle, and Charizard walked into the room. Red was still in his red pajamas and his hair was all frizzled up, but the look on his face said that he had a wonderful nights rest. Ivysaur then looked up and smiled at his trainer before stepping forward.
"Saur!", Ivysaur said as Trainer Red waved at his Pokemon.
"Good morning Ivysaur, been up and at em before us eh?", Red chuckled. Squirtle then suddenly rushed forward as Ivysaur's smile widened before two vines extended out to greet his friend.
"Saur!", Ivysaur said as Squirtle rushed forward. However, instead of greeting his friend, Squirtle rushed by Ivysaur and towards Samus as he leaped into the air and landed in her lap. Squirtle then hugged onto her as he rubbed his head underneath her chin.
"Squirtle!", Squirtle happily said as Samus hugged the turtle back.
"Hey there Squirtle, how have you been?", she asked. Suddenly, she felt her sleeve being tugged as she looked and saw Pikachu pulling her arm.
"Pika.", he said. Samus then set Squirtle on the table as Pikachu sat next to the water-type Pokemon.
"Squirtle, do you want to play with us?", Samus asked with a smile. Squirtle's eyes then gleamed in happiness as he jumped up and down in excitement.
"Squirtle!", he said. He then looked to his right and saw Pikachu glaring at him as sparks built up in the mouse's cheeks. Squirtle then narrowed his eyes as the two stepped towards each other and looked into the other's eyes, both of them not backing down.
"Pika...", Pikachu warned.
"Squirt...", Squirtle shot back. The two then extended their arms and locked onto each other as they pushed and shoved while Mario sighed in despair by what he saw.
"Great, now they are-a fighting over her. It's-a already annoying when it's-a Ike and Little Mac, but now two Pokemon?", Mario asked. The plumber then heard a whine as he spun around and saw Ivysaur with his eyes nearly on the verge of tears as he saw his best friend battle on the electric Pokemon.
"Ivysaur...", Ivysaur whined as lowered his head. Trainer Red then came by and patted him on the back as the grass-type Pokemon looked up at him.
"Sorry buddy, but Squirtle seems to be attached to Samus for some time now.", Trainer Red said as Ivysaur looked up at the bounty hunter. Ivysaur then glared at her as his skin turned somewhat red.
"Ivy...", Ivysaur growled.
"Uh oh, that-a can't be good.", Mario said as he and Luigi watched on. Kirby then walked into the dining room before he spotted some food and blindly rushed over towards to where it was. Kirby then used his inhale ability to suck up all the food that he saw before he closed his eyes and rubbed his stomach with a satisfied smile. Unfortunately for the Popstar warrior, in his haste, he failed to see that the food he ate belonged to the villain smashers' table as all the villian smashers looked at their empty plates in shock before turning their heads and glaring at Kirby. Kirby then opened his eyes before he screamed and began taking a step back as the villain smashers stood up and began to walk towards him.
"You. Ate. My. Omelette.", Mewtwo said as his hands began to glow blue and his tone of voice getting angrier every second.
"Do you know how long we waited for our food, only to have you run up and gobble it all up even before we got a bite?", Dark Pit said with a hint of venom in his voice.
"That's it Kirby, I've dealt with you for far too long. This time...I'M GONNA CLOBBAH YA TILL YOUR NOTHIN CEPT A RED STAIN ON THE CARPET!", King Dedede yelled as he pulled out his hammer and began to zone in on Kirby. Kirby then yelled before he turned around and began running away as King Dedede chased the puffball down, his eyes turning red as they became crazed with anger. King Dedede then began swinging his hammer around left and right as the smashers in the room then ducked underneath the tables or jumped out of the way while the self-proclaimed king continued his assault. Little Mac then stepped into the room, all dressed and ready for the day as he punched into the air a few times.
"Hey guys, ready for an exciting day full of battle? I know that I am!", he said with an excited smile on his face. Kirby then raced by him as Little Mac scratched his head in confusion for why the pink puffball was running.
"Uh..Kirby...why are you...", Little Mac then looked up and saw King Dedede swinging his hammer around as the penguin charged by him.
THWACK!
"AAHHH!", Little Mac screamed as he went flying through the air before he looked up and saw the wall getting closer and closer. Before the boxer could do anything, he went straight into the wall, his head stuck while his body was on the other side.
"HEY! HELP ME OUT OF THIS!", Little Mac's muffled cried could be heard from the other side where his head was stuck. But nobody could help him since the chase was still on as King Dedede chased after Kirby through the dining room. Kirby then stopped in his tracks and rolled under King Dedede as the penguin ran for a few more feet before stopping and turning around as Kirby ran towards the dining room door that Little Mac had just come through. King Dedede then began to run again before lifting his hammer behind his head as he zoomed over towards Kirby.
"DON'T THINK THAT YOU CAN ESCAPE ME LIKE THAT!", he yelled as Kirby came up to the door. Unfortunately for him, the door swung opposite of what he wanted as Fox and Falco stepped into the room. The two space pilots were still in their sleeping clothes, but had warm smiles on their faces as they waved at the other smashers, unaware of what was happening.
"Hey guys, having a good day?", Fox asked.
"What going on?", Falco asked. The avian then noticed Kirby beneath them with a worried look on his face before turning around and jumping in fear.
"Hey Kirby, what's the matter?", Falco asked.
"COME BACK HERE YOU ANNOYING PINK BALL!", Fox and Falco then heard as they looked up and saw King Dedede racing towards them with his hammer behind his head. King Dedede then swung his hammer down to where Kirby was, only to miss the puffball as Kirby rolled out of the way in enough time. Although he missed his intended target, King Dedede did hit somethings, and those somethings were Fox and Falco. Unfortunately for the pilots, King Dedede's hammer smashed onto one of their feet, made even worse since both were still barefoot. Fox and Falco then widened their eyes in pain as King Dedede retracted his hammer and began chasing Kirby again as the two pilots began jumping up and down on their good foot while holding their hurt one.
"OH SWEET CORNERIA! I THINK MY FOOT IS BROKEN!", Fox cried as he jumped up and down in pain.
"AHHH! THERE BETTER NOT BE A TALON BROKEN OR ELSE I'M KICKING IN BETWEEN THE LEGS WITH MY GOOD FOOT DEDEDE!", Falco shouted as he held onto his bad foot. However, their threats fell on deaf ears as King Dedede kept his pursuit on Kirby and chased him to where Samus, Pikachu, and Squirtle were. Samus rolled out of the way as Kirby jumped up onto the table, but Pikachu and Squirtle were still fighting each other that they did not notice the hunt that was going on. The two Pokemon then got into the other's face as the glared each other in the eye before they noticed Kirby zip by them as they finally took their attention off the other.
"PREPARE TO GO FLYING KIRBY!", King Dedede yelled as he brought his hammer down onto the table. Kirby jumped off in enough time, but Pikachu and Squirtle were sent flying through the air towards the door as Ryu stepped in.
"Ah, what a morning for... FLYING POKEMON!?", he yelled as he saw Pikachu and Squirtle flying straight towards him. Ryu then turned around and began to ran away, but Pikachu and Squirtle then collided with him as the three went flying down the hallway until they crashed onto the floor.
"WHAT THE...WHAT'S GOING ON OUT THERE!?", Master Hand suddenly yelled as he came out of his office, only to find three of the smashers lying on the floor. The three then looked up and stared at the floating hand for a minute before giving him sheepish smiles. Master Hand was about to interrogate them until he heard a crash from the dining room. Ryu then stood up and held his hands out.
"I'M INNOCENT! I WAS JUST WALKING IN WHEN THAT WAS HAPPENING!", Ryu exclaimed as Master Hand gave the warrior an inquisitive look before going down the hallway and opening the dining room door.
"Now what are you...", Master Hand started, only to stop by what he saw in front of him. The whole dining room had been made a mess as smashers hid underneath tables before Master Hand looked up and saw Kirby being chased by a very angry King Dedede who was swinging his hammer around without a care for anything or anyone that was nearby. Master Hand then turned from white to red as he shot forward and brought his...uh...body...into a fist.
"THAT'S RIGHT KIRBY, I'M COMING AT YA!", King Dedede yelled as he continued swinging.
"WHAT DO YOU KNOW? SO AM I!", Master Hand yelled as King Dedede turned around and had his pupils shrink as Master Hand punched the penguin in the face and sent him flying to the other side of the room. King Dedede then sat up as he felt his nose and immediately cringed in pain as he noticed a crimson red fluid on his hand and began to cry his tears out.
"OW! WHY WOULD YOU HIT ME!? YOU'RE SO MEAN MASTER HAND! YOU NEVER CONSIDER ABOUT OTHERS!", King Dedede cried as his tears began to soak the floor beneath him.
"Shut up King Dedede! Besides, really? I don't care about others? Look at what you've caused!", Master Hand said as he motioned around the room as the tables and plates were scattered across the room, Little Mac's head was still stuck in the wall, and Fox was having Samus help inspect his foot as Falco inspected his. King Dedede then looked up at Master Hand and puffed out his air before crossing his arms.
"They were in my way! Kirby ate all our food!", King Dedede shouted. Master Hand then tensed up before turning around and turning red again as he pointed at the pink puffball, who was quivering in fear as Master Hand loomed over him.
"YOU! LOOK AT WHAT YOU CAUSED! DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW MUCH PROBLEMS YOU'VE ALREADY CAUSED!?", Master Hand yelled.
"What problems?", Shulk asked.
"THE MOVIE OF COURSE! I'M ALREADY GETTING COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER FAMOUS MOVIE WRITERS STATING THAT IT'S NOTHING BUT PURE KIRBY WORSHIP!", Master Hand yelled.
"Woah, that's actually kind of scary considering that many writers have already seen the problem.", Pac-Man stated.
"Yes, and today I am going over and try to convince the director to change the main role.", Master Hand said.
"Oh, what time do you leave?", Palutena asked.
"In less than an hour, I'll be making a list of the battles scheduled for today. You all better do them.", Master Hand warned. Suddenly, the villain smashers then began to boo as Master Hand turned slightly red due to agitation.
"BAH! WE DON'T-A NEED TO DO ANY BATTLES!", Wario exclaimed.
"Who cares about what you have to say?", Mewtwo scoffed.
"Battles are for losers!", Bowser Jr. yelled.
"SHUT UP OR YOU WILL NOT BE RECEIVING YOUR PAY, IS THAT UNDERSTOOD!?", Master Hand yelled. The villain smashers then widened their eyes in fear and gulped before nodding their heads.
"Good. Now if you excuse me, I have work to do!", Master Hand said as he exited the room. The rest of the smashers then looked at each other before groaning and began helping cleaning up. However, Mario then began to scratch underneath his chin as he thought about something.
"Hmm...", he said.
"What is-a it Mario?", Luigi asked.
"Master Hand just-a said that he has a while lot of work to-a do. Maybe I can-a help him, that way Peach can cool off.", Mario said, but Luigi shook his head in disagreement.
"I don't-a know Mario, this-a may be a little too much, even for-a you.", Luigi warned. However, Mario just laughed as he went down the hallway.
"Nonsense! I can-a do it!", he said as he went down the hallway towards Master Hand's office. As Mario made it up to the door, he heard Master Hand from the other side griping about something until the plumber then knocked on the door. Master Hand then groaned as Mario heard the hand's chair being turned around to face him.
"Enter.", Master Hand said as Mario opened the door and stood in front of Master Hand's desk. Master Hand then gave a confused expression as he saw the plumber come in.
"Mario, what are you doing here? You know I have to get ready soon!", Master Hand said. Mario then took off his cap before he began rubbing the back of his head while giving a sheepish grin.
"Well...uh...I couldn't help but-a hear how you have so much work to do...", Mario began. Master Hand then gave the plumber a dead-panned expression as the hand sat up in his chair.
"Mario, what do you want? I know you are after something.", Master Hand said. Mario then widened his eyes in surprise, Master Hand was more observatant than he had thought.
"Well...I was-a wondering...could I help-a you run the tournament?", Mario asked. The room remained quiet for a few seconds before Master Hand sat up further in his seat, nearly leaning over his desk.
"Mario...why on Earth would you ask me THAT!?", Master Hand yelled.
"Well...I need to do-a something else...and...", Mario explained.
"Mario, what's wrong?", Master Hand asked. Mario then sighed, the creator of the tournament was just too smart for him.
"It's-a Peach sir, I just-a need time away from her.", Mario explained. Master Hand then began to turn slightly red as Mario began to sweat, what was Master Hand all mad about now?
"Oh no you don't! Don't think that you two can be married and have a divorce two months right after!", Master Hand yelled as he pointed at Mario. Mario then gave Master Hand a puzzled look as he put his hands up.
"WHAT!? A DIVORCE!? MASTER HAND, WE AREN'T-A GETTING A DIVORCE! WE'RE JUST-A HAVING AN ARGUMENT AND NEED TO-A CALM DOWN! SHEESH!", Mario said with a hint of agitation in his voice. Master Hand then turned back to his original white color before falling back in his seat and leaning back in embarrassment.
"Oh...uh...oops?", Master Hand said as Mario glared at him. The plumber then sighed as he rubbed his temple as Master Hand sat up in his chair.
"No, no, anyone could have-a guessed it by the way we had argued.", Mario said as Master Hand gave a sigh of relief. Master Hand then sat up straight in his seat before he cleared his throat.
"Well, Mario, do you want to take in the responsibility of running everything and making sure everyone does his or her part? It's not as glamorous as you may think. In fact, it's probably even worse.", Master Hand warned. Mario then turned around and smiled as he put his hand into the air for a sign of taking an oath and a nodded his head.
"Yes I-a do!", Mario said. Master Hand then sighed as he got up and floated over towards the office door before opening it and exiting.
"Okay Mario, you're my right-hand man now. Let's see how you handle the first day while I go talk to the movie director. Good luck!", Master Hand said as he left the room and went to the Smash Train Station in the garage before turning it on and taking a car that went to Smash City outside of the force field. Mario then laughed as he walked out into the hallway while he shook his head.
"Oh come on Master Hand, I'm-a sure it's-a not that hard!", Mario said as he began walking down the hallway, getting ready to be in charge for the day.
"Hello there sir, how are...oh! It's you! G...go on right ahead! He's waiting for you!", a random security guard said as the gate was opened for Master Hand to enter the studios as he floated down the sidewalk. Master Hand couldn't help but gripe about how Nintendo was stupid enough to have all their movie marketing rights with the studios he was at. Master Hand then passed a poster before he scoffed to himself.
"PFFT! 'Smashing Productions'? HA! They couldn't have came up with a more stupid name! I swear, why didn't Nintendo lend the movie rights to Warner Bros. or Disney? At least they are well known and could've made the movies somewhat interesting!", Master Hand said to himself as he found the studios the director and writer was in before he opened the door and saw a huge set in front of him. From the side, Master Hand saw a little guy dressed in blue jeans, a pink t-shirt, a Haiwaiin vest, tan-tinted sunglasses, and a pink beret on his head. The man then turned around and smiled before he rushed up to Master Hand and immediately grabbed his...uh...hand...and shook it with enthusiasm written all over his face.
"Oh! Master Hand! It's so good to see you again! I knew you would want another movie after the success of the Subspace Emissary!", the director said. Master Hand couldn't help but feel awkward as he continued shaking the little man's hand.
"Uh...yes...", Master Hand said before the director then let go and turned around and motioned towards the set in front of him.
"See? I have it all planned out! You see, there will be this giant, glowing orb with wings called Galeem that will fight the smashers with a bunch of Master Hands! That's where you come in, we will pretty much take pictures of you and create CGI models of you so that you don't have to filmed for every hand. Then, Galeem sends out this attack that kills everyone but Kirby as Kirby escapes then rescues his friends. Then..."
"STOP! Just stop!", Master Hand suddenly interrupted. The director then gave Master Hand a confused look as he turned around and looked at the giant hand.
"What is it Master Hand? Is there something wrong with my story or setting?", the director asked.
"Let me ask you something, who was pratically the star in the last movie?", Master Hand asked. The director then laughed as he smacked his knees with his palm.
"Why that's easy! Kirby! But Meta Knight and King Dedede helped too!", the director answered.
"And who is the star of this movie?", Master Hand sarcastically asked.
"Why, Kirby!", the director answered.
"And that's the problem! This isn't anything different from the last film except that the main attention is soley on Kirby!", Master Hand blurted out. The director remained quiet for a few seconds before shrugging his shoulders.
"And? You're acting as if that's a bad thing? What's the matter with Kirby being the star again?", the director asked.
"It feels like Kirby worship, that's what! Nobody wants to go see a movie that has their favorite character, only for them to be outshined by another one that is the favorite in the film! It feels so...so...biased!", Master Hand said. The director then crossed his hands and turned away as he 'hmped' in response.
"It's not Kirby worhsip! Kirby is just the best! He's also the most powerful smasher there is!", the director argued.
"Buddy, I work and live with the smashers. Although Kirby is powerful, Meta Knight, Shulk, and Ness are more so.", Master Hand said. The director then turned around and flayed his arms into the air before throwing his papers into the air.
"Well...there's nothing wrong with having the strongest person lose! It creates tension!", the director shouted.
"I agree, but why not try someone else...like Pit! That's new! Or Pac-Man! He's iconic!", Master Hand suggested. Suddenly, the director then turned around as Master Hand saw him turn on a tune on his phone before he turned back around as a jazz band was heard.
"KIRBY! KIRBY! KIRBY! THAT'S THE NAME THAT YOU SHOULD KNOW!", the director suddenly sang as Master Hand immediately cringed in response.
"ARE YOU KIDDING ME!? YOU'RE USING THAT SONG TO CHANGE MY MIND!?", Master Hand yelled. However, the director did not care as he continued singing.
"KIRBY! KIRBY! KIRBY! HE'S THE STAR OF THE SHOW! HE'S MORE THAN YOU THINK, HE HAS MAXIMUM PINK! KIRBY KIRBY IS THE ONE!", the director continued singing. Master Hand then began to shake uncomfortably as he continued to hear the singing.
"What about Luigi?", Master Hand asked. The director then stopped singing as he looked up and tilted his glasses up farther on his face.
"If you don't make Kirby the star of the movie, it will be King Dedede instead!", the director warned as Master Hand gasped in shock.
"YOU WOULDN'T!", Master Hand yelled.
"Want to test me?", the director asked. After a few seconds of silence, Master Hand then groaned very loudly before shaking the director's hand.
"FINE! YOU WIN! JUST DON'T MAKE KING DEDEDE THE MAIN STAR!", Master Hand yelled as the director gave Master Hand a wicked smile.
"Don't worry! It'll be an amazing movie about our favorite pink puffball!", the director exclaimed as Master Hand floated over towards the exit and went outside before heading to the gates of the studios.
"And that's why we should have given the rights to either the Warner Bros. or Disney!", Master Hand said.
Mario was ready, Master Hand had just left and this was the perfect opportunity to prove himself worthy to the hand that he was able to lead when Master Hand was away. Mario then entered the living room where some of the smashers were. The children smashers were lying on the floor as they watched Indiana Jones while Fox and Samus were on the couch and watching with them as Fox had his arm wrapped around Samus. Mario then noticed Dr. Mario attending Little Mac as the poor boxer was free from the wall...except for the panel around his neck. Unfortunately, the only way that was possible to free Little Mac was to cut a hole in the frame and cut off the rest of the panel off from Little Mac's neck. At the other side of the room, Ryu was showing Trainer Red and his Pokemon different martial arts moves, but Ivysaur was busy glaring at Samus instead of watching the different techniques. Mario then took a couple of deep breaths before he put on a smile and walked in front of the children smashers.
"Hello everyone, I just-a want you to know that we have some-a battles to do and...", Mario began.
"Mario, move aside! I'm starting to like this movie!", Toon Link said as Mario raised his eyebrows in shock. Mario then looked at Fox before clearing his throat as the vulpine looked at him.
"What do you want Mario?", Fox asked.
"Fox...you have-a some battles to...", Mario started.
"Forget what Master Hand says! I'm staying here with Samus, and there's nothing you can do to make me do otherwise!", Fox said. Suddenly, Pikachu came running into the room and jumped into Samus's lap as the bounty hunter looked down and began petting him.
"Hey there buddy!", Samus said.
"Pika!", Pikachu greeted. Fox then glared at the Pokemon as he grabbed Samus's hand and put it down on her lap.
"HEY! YOU PROMISED IT WAS YOU AND ME TIME! NOT HIM!", Fox yelled. Pikachu then looked at Fox before glaring back at him while sparks built up in his cheeks again.
"Pikachu!", Pikachu said. Suddenly, a light bulb went off in Mario's head as he watched this situation go on.
"Hey guys, no fighting!", Samus said.
"Yeah, do it on-a Battlefield! You guys are-a already scheduled to fight there!", Mario said with a sly smirk on his face. Although it was pretty obvious what was going on, Fox and Pikachu took the bait as they looked back at each other and gave the other a competitive smirk.
"Oh man, I'm so going to enjoy this!", Fox said as he suddenly stood up.
"Pika!", Pikachu said as he stood up before the two took of to the teleporters to be sent to the Battlefield as Samus watched in shock as the two abandoned her.
"Hey! Come back!", she said.
"Oh, don't-a worry about them Samus, you have a battle against Trainer Red and-a his Pokemon to do!", Mario said as Trainer Red then looked up before he smirked at the bounty hunter and tilted his cap.
"Alright! Time to take you out!", Trainer Red said as he pointed at Samus as Charizard roared in agreement while Squirtle jumped up and down in joy. Ivysaur then looked at Samus before an evil grin appeared on his face as the other four then got up and went to the teleporters. Mario then looked at the children smashers before laughing to himself as he stepped in front of them.
"You know, there will-a be ice cream for every children smasher that-a goes into battle against each other.", Mario said with a wink. The children smashers then widened their eyes before standing up and rushing towards the teleporters.
"Alright! Let's crush them Nana!", Popo exclaimed.
"Prepare to face my PSI!", Lucas said as the children smashers left the room as Mario chuckled to himself.
"Hee hee! Too easy!", Mario said before he looked over to Little Mac and Dr. Mario as another bright idea went off in his head.
"You know Little Mac, I heard-a Dr. Mario here flirting with the Wii Fit Trainer the other day.", Mario said as he bit his lip to refrain his laughter as Dr. Mario then stopped what he was doing and looked at Mario with his jaw-dropped. Little Mac, on the other hand, had his pupils shrink a little before a fire built up in his eyes and muscles as the boxer grabbed what was the last of the frame on his neck and tore it right off in a split second. Little Mac then dropped then frame before he grabbed Dr. Mario by the coat and lifted him up to glare at him in eye.
"You. Me. Final Destination. Now.", Little Mac growled as Dr. Mario turned back towards Mario and glared at him.
"Why you-a...", was all the doctor could say before Little Mac suddenly rushed to the teleporter room with Dr. Mario in hand as he dragged him away. Mario then collapsed onto the couch before crossing his legs and folding his hands behind his head as he gave a content sigh.
"See? Nothing to-a it!", he said.
"Oh my word, what a day...", Master Hand groaned as he rode the Smash Train back to the mansion. After the interview, all Master Hand could think about was all the smashers being angry at him for collapsing into the director's demand. It bugged Master Hand, but to him, there was no other way; besides, Nintendo would fire him since this was a big market move on their part.
"Well, at least King Dedede won't be the star.", Master Hand laughed to himself as he noticed that he passed the force field and was coming up to the mansion. Master Hand could only wonder what negative remarks he would receive as he told everyone the news. The train then pulled in as the car doors opened, letting the creator of the tournament off the train and into the garage. Master Hand then heard a bunch of voices from the other side of the door as he gulped in despair.
"Uh oh, I bet they want to know. Well, better get this done.", He said as he opened the door to the mansion hallway.
"Hello everyone, I'm afraid that..."
"ALRIGHT! ICE CREAM!"
"WHAT THE...!?", Master Hand suddenly screamed as he looked up and saw the children smashers carrying huge bowls of ice cream as they walked into the living room.
YEAH! THIS IS AWESOME!", Ness cheered.
"WAIT JUST A MINUTE! WHERE DID YOU...", but before Master Hand could finish, Little Mac and Dr. Mario walked by. Little Mac had a content look on his face as Dr. Mario was covered in bruises and had a black eye. Master Hand was about to speak, but Dr. Mario raised his hand to stop him.
"Don't ask.", the clone said as he and Little Mac went into the living room. Master Hand then smelled something as he turned around and saw a ticked off Fox and Pikachu. Fox was bleeding from the mouth and looked charred, which explained the smell. Pikachu, however, was also damaged as he had blood running from his mouth. The two then entered the living room as well as Samus walked by with Squirtle in her hands as Trainer Red walked beside her and was pouting with his Charizard.
"How on earth did she dodge every attack!? There's no way that is possible!", Red complained as Charizard shook his head in disbelief. Ivysaur walked slowly as he had his head lowered and was pouting as well, which caught the attention of Samus.
"Hey Red, why is Ivysaur all down in the glooms today?", Samus asked. Red then looked at the grass-type Pokemon before clicking his tongue and pointing at Squirtle.
"Oh yeah, I should have mentioned that Squirtle and Ivysaur are very close friends. He probably is jealous of you for taking Squirtle away from him.", Red said. Squirtle then looked down at his friend as a few tears formed while Samus gave Ivysaur a saddened look. She then stopped as she put Squirtle down and knelt next to Ivysaur. The grass-type Pokemon then saw this as he looked away in shame.
"Ivysaur, is it true that you were jealous of me taking Squirtle's attention?", Samus asked. Ivysaur remained quiet for a few seconds before a couple of tears fell as the Pokemon nodded his head.
"Saur...", Ivysaur confessed. Samus then put her hand underneath his chin as she made him look at her as she gave a sympathetic look to him.
"I'm sorry Ivysaur, I didn't know about your friendship. Squirtle has just recently become attached to me and has been a good friend. Please forgive me.", Samus pleaded as Ivysaur closed his eyes.
"Saur...", he said as Samus gave him a weak smile.
"Thank you. And by the way, don't tell Pikachu or Fox this, but I think that you're adorable.", she said before she kissed Ivysaur on the cheek. Ivysaur's pupils then shrunk as his cheeks turned pink from blushing before he smiled at the bounty hunter.
"Ivysaur!", he said.
"Yes, you're adorable!", Samus replied.
"OH COME ON! ANOTHER POKEMON!?", Fox suddenly yelled out of the living room. Samus and Red then laughed as they heard Fox grumble to himself about how Samus didn't pay enough attention to him. Samus then picked up Squirtle again, who hugged her as she raised him up.
"I'm sorry that I had to kick you in the face earlier, maybe this will help.", she said as she kissed Squirtle on the cheek as the turtle Pokemon squealed in happiness. The five then went into the living room as Mario walked by and had a smug look on his face while Master Hand remained still. Master Hand then turned towards Mario while pointing back the living room.
"HOW THE...WHY THE...WHAT THE...HOW ON EARTH DID YOU GET THEM TO DO THEIR JOBS!?", Master Hand yelled.
"I like to-a call it 'motivation'!", Mario said as he wiggled his eyebrows.
"Oh yeah? I think I call it 'bribery'!", Master Hand said as Mario laughed at him.
"Oh Master Hand, are-a we jealous?", Mario asked in teasing voice as Master Hand chuckled at the comment.
"Nah, just surprised that you were able to pull it off. Maybe you could help me with the paperwork as well.", Master Hand suggested.
"You know, that-a sounds fine to me!", Mario said cheerfully.
"Thank you Mario!", Master Hand said.
"HEY! WHY DO YOU MAGGOTS HAVE ICE CREAM!? GIMME!", a voice suddenly shouted that was recognized as Bowser Jr.
"GET YOUR CLAWS OFF ME!", Ness suddenly yelled as a loud 'WHAM!' was heard and Bowser Jr. was then heard crying.
"HOW DARE YOU KICK ME IN THE CHEST! FOR THAT, I'LL TAKE ALL OF YOUR ICE CREAM!", Bowser Jr. yelled as a tumble was soon heard. Mario then leaped into the air as he and Master Hand raced into the living room.
"LET GO OF HIM JUNIOR!", Master Hand yelled as Mario shook his head.
"Mama Mia, hopefully nothing else goes-a wrong...", he said as he entered the room. Unbeknownst to him, Ganondorf was watching the entire fiasco from the hallway and grinned evilly in response to Mario's statement.
"Sorry Mario, but the end for everyone and everything is near!", Ganondorf laughed as he turned around and began to walk back to his room.
(Author's note)
THAT'S RIGHT! I'M NOT DEAD! LET'S PARTY! Oh...umm...right. Anyways, sorry for the huge delay guys, but school and basketball have been taxing on my time right now. Thankfully, this chapter is finished and we can move on. Now, just to be clear, I don't mind that Kirby is the main character of the World of Light. I know Lord Sakurai is the father of Kirby and can decide who he wants to be the main character, that's fine considering what all he does for us. I just thought it would be interesting to see how the others would react. Back onto the story, oh...Mario and Peach are have some problems...this can't be good. After watching Into the Spider-verse (best animated film of 2018 by the way!), I realize how having or wanting children could affect a marriage. I think it would be interesting to see what would happen if this situation came across Mario and Peach. Don't worry, they aren't going to get a divorce... possibly something worse will happen, only I know! Muah hah hah hah! Anyways, let's hope everything goes smoothly in the future so that I can upload more chapters as we make our way into the finale of this series! Hope you guys are enjoying it so far, and I hope to see you all in the future! Until next time, aloha! I don't own any of the characters, all characters belong to their respective owners.
