Hey guys! My name's Marth1752! If you read Super Smash Bros fics, you might know me from my stories The Marvelous Misadventures of Snake or Smash High. I'm not advertising them if you haven't read them or anything!(Makes a shady-looking face) Anyway, my chapter is about Yoshimitsu, the crazy yet courteous bandit! He is, personally, one of my favorite characters because of his crazy moves, such as, and this is the name I give it anyway, the Sword ROFLcopter! Lol, anyway, on with the chapter!

Death by Yoshimitsu

Rothion pounded at the yellow-hot metal with his trusty blacksmith's hammer. He was fashioning a new type of weapon that he had learned about from a passing traveler: the katana. Apparently, it was a common type of weapon in the country called Japan.

"By the gods, this is a complicated weapon!" Rothion thought. The katana's blade was hard to fashion, for if it was cooled incorrectly, it would revert to iron. He had already broken quite a few blades that way. He quickly placed the steel into the water for it to cool off. He slowly pulled it out- and the blade held together! "Yes!" He brought the blade to his whetstone and sharpened it. He dusted it down and walked over to a wooden dummy he crafted. He stood in a samurai stance and swung the blade. It cut the dummy right in half.

"Perfect!" he yelled. "I finally got it right!" He placed the blade down on the shelf where he kept his best weapons. As he looked at the weapon in satisfaction, he heard a whirring noise. He grabbed one of the swords on the shelf and got ready to defend himself. A man landed in front of him. He was wearing green and purple clothing and a squid mask, for some reason. He also had a flag on his back and held a katana that was in rather bad shape. The strange man sheathed his weapon.

"I mean thee no harm, humble smith!" he said. "My name is Yoshimitsu!"

"OK...might I ask why you are here?" Rothion asked. "Huh?" Yoshimitsu had disappeared.

"Yes, thou may!" Yoshimitsu yelled. He had reappeared behind Rothion. Rothion screamed in fear and jumped away from Yoshimitsu. They stared at each other for a couple minutes. "Well? Art thou going to ask why I am here?"

"Um...yeah...why are you here?"

"A fine question, sir smith! My blade, Yoshimitsu, seems to hath broken! Can thou fix it?" Rothion smiled, confident that he could do it, seeing as how he had just fashioned one.

"But of course! I am quite the expert blacksmith, you know!"

"Excellent!" Yoshimitsu handed Rothion the weapon and he set to work.

Rothion placed the weapon in his fire. He was slightly nervous, as Yoshimitsu seemed to be staring at him, although he couldn't tell because of the mask.

"Um, Yoshimitsu, was it? Could you back up a little? I work best...while not being watched."

"Of course! If it makes mine blade perfect, it shalt be done!" Yoshimitsu walked outside and sat down. He began to chant the word "namu" over and over.

"OK...strange man..." Rothion thought. He brought the blade out of the fire and began to work it.

After many hours of work...

Rothion stuck the weapon in the water. It looked perfect. He sharpened it on his whetstone and walked over to where Yoshimitsu was.

"It's finished! Yoshimitsu...?" He was gone again!

"Art thou searching for me?" Yoshimitsu asked. He was on the ceiling, meditating. He fell down and landed on his feet. "I thank thee, noble smith! And now, I must be off!" He walked out of Rothion's building and jumped in the air. He began to twirl his blade around and around in the air and he flew off. Rothion just stared.

"OK..." he said. Just as he walked into the building again, he heard a scream and a thud.

"Villain!" Yoshimitsu screamed. He had appeared in front of Rothion. "Thou hadst not fixed mine blade!"

"Um, it was an accident! I swear!"

"If thou say so..." Yoshimitsu said. He stabbed himself in the stomach and disappeared in a puff of smoke.

"What is wrong with him?" Rothion thought out loud. He opened the door to his building and a wooden arm shot out and punched him in the face, knocking him over. Yoshimitsu picked him up and threw him into the air. Rothion landed on his stomach. Yoshimitsu spun around and stopped behind Rothion. Everything began to move in slow-motion. Yoshimitsu raised his other katana and looked down at Rothion's neck. Before Rothion could do anything, Yoshimitsu decapitated him. Autumn leaves fell around him.

"The deed is done! Now to find an honorable smith!" He flew away again, using his good katana.

AE87: LMAO! Man, Yoshimitsu was really funny in this one. But yeah, he's an ace character and I loved how he punched Rothion in the face before doing his Critical Finisher on him. Anyway I must apologise for not being on here on such a long hence that is what explains my lack of updates, but as I'm speaking I am working on A Problem Aired is A Problem Shared (as I've been having massive writers block on it) and also my other fictions too. I would like to thank those who have reviewed for this so far - you're awesome!
