Okay, next chapter everyone. To recap, the army of Smash Central is attacking the Smashers because the representatives are afraid of the Smashers' combined might. Now the Smash Brothers must fight for their freedom in the world of Smash Planet or live a life of control. Will the Smashers win this or even come out of this alive? Nobody knows except me…
Pikachu loved the Smash Brothers but sometimes he wished they would just jump in a well and stay there.
"Pika, pika, pika!" squealed Pikachu, hoping they could talk about this
"Sorry Pikachu, but we need a distraction." Link replied "And you are the best candidate for this."
"Yes…you're distraction." Kirby replied, handing the electric mouse his Warp Star
"Pika, pi, chu, pika pi?" asked Pikachu, wondering why Kirby couldn't do this
"You have the most power out of the four of us…you can do some serious damage very quickly." Link replied, steadying Pikachu on the Warp Star
"Pika, pi!" screeched Pikachu, not wanting to
"This is a good for the whole a mansion." Replied Mario, opening a nearby window, out of the range of the army, "And a don't a worry, the Warp a Star will a do all the steering, all you a have to do is a do the thundering." Mario told him
"Pi…ka…" muttered Pikachu, hating every last one of them
"O a kay, ready Pikachu?" Mario asked
"Pika! Pika!" cried Pikachu, telling them that he was indeed not ready
"O a kay, here you a go!" proclaimed Mario, and with a mighty shove Link, Kirby, and Mario pushed Pikachu and the Warp Star out of the window
"PIKA!" cried Pikachu as the Warp Star took full flight and sped toward the army
"Did you hear something?" The a soldier asked, looking up into the sky
Just as he finished that sentence, electricity rained down on the soldier as if a thundercloud decided to join the fight.
"Airborne attack!" cried one of the soldiers before he was hit by a blast of electricity
The soldiers looked up and saw a star shaped craft darting around and electricity flowing down from the star, taking out numerous delicate and essential devices.
"Shoot it down!" the commander order and on his command the soldiers opened fire
Luckily for everyone's favorite mouse the Warp Star wasn't stupid and it dodge the incoming fire, throwing everyone's favorite mouse for a loop.
"Piiiiiiiiiiiiiiiikaaaaaaaaaa!" cried Pikachu as he held on for dear life
Electricity was now flying rampant and with no ounce of control as Pikachu had abandoned any sanity, scared as he was. Soldier upon soldier took blasts of electricity, sending them left and right in a flurry of electrical explosions.
"Ahh!" they cried as they were blown away
"It's like an evil little storm cloud!" the commander commented, "It's too fast to hit with ballistic weaponry and missiles can't get a lock on it because the electricity interferes with the locking systems." He muttered, "Take out the lasers!" he ordered
Large guns were brought out, taking two men to hold and operate properly. The first soldier held the gun itself while the second held the battery that powered the laser. Five groups of soldiers came out, all ready to fire upon the evil little thundercloud.
"Fire on my command." The commander said
The fire laser men all began to lock onto the fast moving thundercloud as they powered up their laser cannons. A low hum could be heard as the laser cannons charged to full and a beeping sound increased in speed, as the lock on the thundercloud grew closer.
"Wait for it…" he said, watching the thundercloud's flight pattern "Wait for it…" he said, watching it dart around "Wait for it…" he said, and that's when he noticed it make a strange turn, "Now!" he ordered and the cannons let loose, unleashing a powerful concussion wave at the thundercloud.
"Pika?" wondered Pikachu as he saw a bright light head his way, "Pika!" he squealed after realizing what that bright light was
He know he couldn't dodge it, at the angle the Warp Star was flying at and he knew if that hit him he'd be a goner, so the only option he had left was to take care of those beams.
"Pi…ka…" he muttered, building electricity quickly, "CHU!" he hollered, calling thunder from the heavens and then unleashing it upon the beams heading his way
Mega watts of energy rang forth and collided with the power of the concussion beams. The impact caused the beams to separate and fire off in random directions. Some of those random directions happened to be at the source of the beams in the first place!
"Take cover!" one of the soldiers yelled as the beams made their way toward them
Soldiers took cover while others weren't quick enough to avoid the blasts. Some of the blasts made contact with the battery packs on their backs and caused a malfunction. Discarding the packs before they blew the soldiers ran behind armored cars and tanks, watching as the packs went critical.
BOOM!
A thunderous roar soon cascaded over the Smash Park, alarming many a wild life that took residence in the park. The crater created by the exploding packs devastated the army, though nobody took a dirt nap, there were still many injured.
"Take the injured to sick bay, and give me more soldiers!" the commander yelled as he watched the storm cloud retreat into Smash Mansion.
"Pika…pika…pika…pikachu." Muttered Pikachu as he caught his breath
"Good a job Pikachu…look at a all that a chaos you a created." Mario said, congratulating his yellow friend and beaming at the chaos outside
"They are absolutely in complete disarray." Link commented, nodding his head in approval
"Crazy, crazy, crazy!" cheered Kirby as he hopped up and down
Pikachu wasn't sure why he was a friend with these people but he knew it wasn't for this reason.
"O a kay, we have them on the a ropes. Now if a Marth, Young Link, Roy, and a Yoshi get the a items we may a have a chance.
"Like these?" he heard someone say
Turning around the four Smashers soon discovered the source of that voice. With Roy, Marth, and Yoshi, Young Link stood with multiple items, each more dangerous than the last.
"How have you four held out?" Marth asked
"Pika pi chu." Replied Pikachu, showing Marth that fighting an army wasn't easy
"Well do not worry friends, we have means to retaliate." Came Roy, Super Scope in hand
"Mamma Mia!" cried Mario in shock "I a didn't know you a brought so a many." Replied Mario, his mouth gaping slightly at all the items they were carrying
"Well, we were not sure how many we should bring…so we got a couple of bags to hold them in." Marth replied, a bag of various items in hand
"Yeah…we brought tons." Replied Young Link
"Yeah tons…tons of pain now that we're out of the arenas." Roy replied
"Yes…we must be careful or…" began Link but a pink blur passing by interrupted him
"I want the Beam Sword." Came Kirby, taking hold of the aforementioned weapon and swallowing it whole
"He never could do that in the arena?" muttered Marth, as he watched Kirby transform
Atop the puffball's head a strange green hat appeared, not unlike the one that the Links wore on their own heads. A sword formed in his small puffy hands, which resembled a laser version of the Master Sword. With a swing Kirby showed off his new sword and held it up proudly, proclaiming himself as Beam Sword Kirby.
"Wow, I suppose that outside the arena he has access to other powers as well." Roy commented
"Well if you a think about it, the arena holds us a back…if we try a hard enough we can a use different powers as a well." Replied Mario, rubbing his chin
"Well then, we shall be putting that theory to the test." Replied Marth, looking out the window
It didn't seem like the army attacking the Smashers were playing around anymore. After that stunt with Pikachu they were ready to take the Smashers down by any means necessary. Eight tanks rolled in, heavily equipped to bring the mansion down if need be. Then, a loud, booming and commanding voice could be heard, most likely amplified by a blow horn or other such object.
"Smashers!" it called "Give yourselves and you will not be destroyed." Said the voice, which happened to be the commander of this little army
No response came from the mansion and the commander called again.
"Give us a response or we will be forced to open fire." The commander said
A large fireball came from one of the nearby windows and crashed into one of the eight tanks, destroying the main cannon.
"Fine then…OPEN FIRE!" the commander boomed and on that command the tanks began to fire upon the mansion
Seven cannons fired upon the mansion, ready to reduce it to rubble, but before that could happen, the cannon bullets crashed into what seemed to be an invisible wall.
"What in the…what is that?" the commander asked
After a few moments the second in command came up to him and explained the strange phenomenon.
"Sir, I am reading vast amounts of energy coming from the mansion."
"What kind of energy?"
"Psychic energy." He replied, "It has made a shield that repelled out weapons."
"Those Smashers refuse to give in." the commander muttered "Will we be able to break that shield?" the commander asked
"No sir, the energy readings are far to high for the weapons we have." The second in command replied "But the readings are also very strange. It is very precise; the large weapons of the tank cannot get through because they are too complicated, but simpler weapons and living creatures should be able to penetrate that shield.
"So we must resort to infantry?" he mumbled "Fine then, send in all available shoulders…get tactical at once!" he ordered
Guns soon were cocked and explosives were set as the soldiers prepared them selves for the assault on the mansion.
"What about the 'garage', is that secure?" the command asked
"No sir, four Smashers have taken it, inhibiting out assault." he replied "With this barrier up as well we can not use the tanks to roll through." he replied
"Fine then, we will take the mansion first and after that is successful we will overrun the garage."
"What if they make an escape?"
"There will be no escape; we will take them down here and now with all our remaining forces. One final assault." The commander ordered
Back in the mansion...
"It was a good a thing that a Mewtwo, Zelda, and a Ness put up that a shield at the last a moment." Replied Mario, sighing a big sigh of relief
"Well your little surprise attack on them didn't make things any better." Replied Falco, as he checked the energy levels of his blaster "Still good for a little longer." He thought
"Well it looks like Ness, Mewtwo, and Zelda are in a very deep trance, so we won't be able to count on them should those soldiers trying a direct attack." Replied Fox
"Lucky sons of…" muttered Falco "Why can't they stop everything from getting in? Why does psychic energy have to be so complicated!" he wailed
"That is just the way it is my friend." Replied Marth "Psychic energy is quite the mystery, we have no more control over it than the ones attacking the mansion. We must simply put out trust into our allies and hope for victory." Marth replied
"Whatever." Replied Falco, putting his blaster into his holster
"Peach…are we really gonna fight all those people?" Popo asked, less than enthusiastic about battle so many soldiers
"Well…yes." She replied, knowing that there was no point in lying to the boy
"Oh…" he replied, solemn
"Don't worry, we'll be fine…we won't lose." She replied, her bright smile radiating toward him
With a sigh of relief Popo ran over to his sister who was busy hugging Pichu, happy that he was okay.
"Shouldn't get his hopes up too much." Samus replied, stepping next to Peach
"I know, but I just couldn't help but feel bad, it was that face." Replied Peach
"We should just go out and waste them all…you know we could." Samus replied, looking straight down at Peach
"Yeah…but the Smashers aren't merciless killers." Came Peach, "We do what we want in our own worlds, but in this world we can't just take peoples lives…even for self-defense. That would just give the 'Hand's more of an excuse to prove we are just a crazy group of people that like to fight."
"Grrr…" growled Samus, but soon she realized that Peach did speak the truth
With a sigh the bounty hunter calmed herself and looked out the window, watching at the soldiers prepared to barrel in and attack.
"Looks like we'll be showing them whether or not that's true." Replied Samus
"I would crush them into dust if I didn't have to worry about those 'Hands'." grumbled Ganondorf, dark energy accumulating in his hands
"There is no time to worry about that now Ganondorf." replied Link, "Our problems are going to be a lot worst."
"Then there is only one thing to do." Came Roy
"Beep, beep, boop, beep." Replied Mr. Game 'n Watch, knowing that the Smashers would have to battle until this was all over
"Well then, let's get ready to pound those fools." Came Bowser, cracking his knuckles
Smasher's looked out, watching a the soldiers made their way into the mansion, storming in, breaking down anything that stood in their path. Soon the true battle would begin and it that battle would decide the fate of the Smashers. The outcome was unsure but the one thing that was, was that the Smashers were going to battle for their lives, in order to live another day. It was that fact alone that gave them the determination needed to face this opposing threat.
The mansion was quite as the soldiers barged in, not caring for secrecy or stealth. The soldiers were armed to the teeth with an array of different weapons made for various degrees of pain. From missile launchers to rail-guns the soldiers seemed as if they were overthrowing a heavily armed regiment, and in the case of the Smashers this was.
"Olly-olly oxen-free." one of the soldiers said
Stepping from the shadows came Young Link, wearing a Bunny Hood.
"Just one of them." a soldier grunted, cocking his gun
"Let's take him out." Said another, taking two heavy shields and placing them in front of him "Let's…" he began but before he could finish Young Link slashed through the shields as if they were nothing, knocking the soldier out in on fell swoop
"Get him!" the soldiers cried, but with Young Link's increased speed they soon fell
Cries of the soldiers could be heard on the second floor as Young Link's attack began. Hearing this the Smashers commenced with their own attack plan.
"Guess it's started." Replied Fox, a Smash Brother Laser Gun in hand
"Well then, let's get into this before the kid has all the fun." replied Falco, holding a Super Scope over his shoulder
Bowser nodded his head in agreement, since he couldn't talk because of his transformation into Metal Bowser, compliments of a Metal Box
"Pi, pi chu." replied a voice, seemingly coming from nowhere, though is was simply a cloaked Pichu
"Okay people, it's time to protect our home…er…second home." replied Peach, waving a Smash Brother umbrella around as if it were a sword
It seemed as if the soldiers were moving in slow motion due to Young Link's speed, but even with his enhanced speed Young Link knew he would be able to handle all the soldiers so he made his retreat, running to the stairs to escape his pursuers.
"Open fire!" yelled a soldier and the others did as they were commanded, letting loose a barrage of bullets at the young Hyrulian
"Whoa!" cried Young Link, running up the stairs to avoid oppressive fire
Soldiers followed him but were soon stopped by Fox and Falco, sending a flurry of kicks into their direction, sending them into nearby walls. One soldier was hit so hard by a roundhouse from Falco that he spun through the air like a top, before tumbling down the stairs.
"Only sixteen shots." Muttered Fox as he let loose with his Laser Gun, taking exceptional aim toward the soldiers so he didn't miss a shot
Laser blasts rained down on the soldiers, pushing them back down the stairs to crash into the floor below.
"One more shot." Fox thought, deciding to save that last shot and resorting to his own blaster, the caused mass confusion in the ranks of the soldiers
Heavy footsteps could be heard as Bowser made his way to the stairs, bullets bouncing off him harmlessly due to this metallic hide. Using all his strength Bowser jumped down the stairs, taking down any soldier foolish enough to be caught in his path.
"Uh…" muttered a few soldiers who had avoided Bowser's attack, although the ones at the bottom of the stairs weren't so lucky
"Hey boys!" cooed a feminine voice
Looking up the soldiers gazed upon the beauty known as Princess Peach, or so many people believe.
"Get her!" one yelled, running up the stairs
But the soldiers didn't stand much of a chance against Peach with her umbrella as she used it and her original umbrella as bludgeoning weapons to clobber any soldiers that got close. But the battle on the stairs wasn't the only battle, taking place in the mansion as soldiers came in through the windows, grappling up the sides. However, on one side of the mansion a barrage of fireballs inhibited some of the soldiers from getting into the mansion.
"Take a this, and a that, and a this!" cried Luigi, throwing fireball after fireball at the soldiers from his place in the garage
"Jiggly, jiggly, Jigglypuff." Jigglypuff said, wishing that Peach hadn't floated back into the mansion after they took the garage back
"Hey, I'd like to go in their and fight too but you heard Peach, she wants us to stay in here and keep the goons from getting our rides." replied Captain Falcon
"Jigglypuff!" cried Jigglypuff in dismay, worried over the safety of Kirby
"Only one lovesick girl at a time Jig." replied Falcon, taking cover in the garage as bullets rained down on it
"Jiggly!" grunted Jigglypuff, puffing up slightly
Even with Luigi's interference many soldiers did make their way into the mansion, looking for Smasher's to take down. It didn't take long for that to happen, but not in the way the soldiers were expecting.
"Ahh!" cried one shoulder as a jolt of electricity went through him, taking him down quickly
"What the…" said another before he too was brought down with electricity
"What's this?" one said, looking around as more and more of his fellow soldiers fell by a mysterious force of electricity
"Pi…pi…pi!" cried a small voice, barely audible
"It must be one of those electric rats, invisible.' said a soldier, flipping on a pair of goggles "Activate you infra-red goggles." he replied
The soldier commenced with this order and before long they saw the heated pattern of Pichu on their goggles.
"Get him!" one yelled, opening fire on Pichu
"Pi!" cried Pichu, barely dodging gun firing
Seeing as the soldiers could see him now Pichu took cover, hiding in a nearby room to avoid the guns.
"After him!" one yelled, kicking down the door to give chase
However the moment the door went down the soldiers came face-to-face with the most powerful Kong ever born.
"Rawr!" roared DK loudly, beating his chest with all his might before lunging forward and demolishing the soldiers in front of him
"Ahh!" cried a soldier as he was flung out a nearby window before crashing to the ground below
More soldiers met a similar occurrence as they too were thrown from the windows by the awesome might of King Dedede.
"Nobody can stop me." Grunted DK, proudly showing off his massive muscles and hooting with glee
"Except me." replied Dedede, swinging his hammer proudly
"Pichu…" muttered Pichu, wondering what all the hoopla was about over muscles, "Pichu pi." he said, feeling that vast electric power was way better than brute strength
Soldiers poured into the mansion, but the Smashers were a long way from being defeated, which they showed when Samus and Ganondorf teamed up to cause mass destruction on a small scale
"Rawr!" roared Ganondorf as his fist connected with a nearby soldier who was the unlucky soul to turn the corner of the hallway first
The sheer impact of the punched ripped the soldier's suit to pieces, blasting the soldier through wall and out of the mansion. If it hadn't have been for the suit taking the brunt of the attack the soldier surely would have lost his life.
"Damn Ganondorf, didn't have to hit him that hard." replied Samus, unleashing a storm of missiles on the group of soldiers
Explosions raked the soldiers, blowing their weapons from their hands and blasting them in all directions; some down the hall, other's to be impeded into the walls of the mansion.
"Oh, and that is holding back Aron." Quipped Ganondorf
"Hey, I coulda hit them with my Super Missiles, but didn't." she countered, scanning the soldiers, "Other than having some nasty bruises and headaches when they wake up, they'll be fine." she replied
"This is getting pathetic." Ganondorf commented "Could they put up more of a battle?" he wondered
"They might just, look!" Samus said, pointing down the hall to a couple of soldiers with rocket launchers
"Fire!" one yelled and six soldiers fired rockets at Ganondorf and Samus
However, Samus and Ganondorf seemed unfazed by the daunting attack and retaliated quickly. Firing from her arm cannon Samus unleashed a fully charged Charge shot that obliterated three of the six rockets heading their way. Ganondorf smirked, before hopping in the air, bringing his left foot out to stop the first rocket coming and grabbing the remaining two with his bare hands.
"What in the…not possible." muttered a soldier as the rockets lost their power and became idle in Ganondorf's presence
"Now you're just showing off." Samus said to him
"Yes, I know." he replied, throwing one of the rockets at the soldiers
"Take cover!" one yelled and with that the soldiers dodged out of the way of the weapon, while it landed harmlessly on the ground…until Samus fired a small shot at the rocket's small warhead, successfully detonating it
BOOM!
"Did you hear that?" Marth asked, after the rocket exploded
"Yoshi." replied Yoshi, not really paying attention as he hurled eggs at oncoming soldiers
"Yoshi, it is time to demonstrate our skills in at homeruns." Replied Roy, brandishing a bat
"We're with you too." Replied the Ice Climbers, each with their own Home-Run Bat
"Yoshi!" cheered Yoshi, ready to swing off
Outside, loud pinging noises could be heard, followed by the yells of soldiers as they were launched out of the mansion with incredible force.
"What is going on!" yelled the commander "Are we losing? How can my men, who have been trained for every possible scenario, be losing to this circus of freaks?" he asked, demanding an answer as one of his soldiers landed near him, his ribs broken
"They just keep coming!" Popo said, sending another soldier out of the mansion
"I have dealt with situations like this before my friend. Continue to battle, they can only supply so many soldiers." Marth replied, countering a blow from a nearby soldier before throwing him out of a window
"I don't know how long I can fight." came Nana, freezing a nearby soldier
"We fight until they're gone." replied Roy, his bat making contact with the back of a soldier
"Yoshi!" cried Yoshi, fighting off three soldiers with a combination of his tail, head, and bat
Yoshi never had to deal with this kind of danger when he lived with his fellow Yoshi's on Yoshi's Island. But feeling the rush of adrenaline going through him as he fought for his life, for the lives of those he called his friends, gave him the motivation to keep going, even when it seemed, that the sea of soldiers would never end.
"Yoshi…Yoshi…Yoshi!" yelled Yoshi, clobbering soldiers left and right
"Yah!" cried Marth, moving through the ranks of the soldiers at blinding speeds, taking them down one after another
"Nana…we can do this." replied Popo, his hammering smashing into the face of a soldier
"Are you sure Popo?" replied Nana, defending against another
"Well, I know that we have to, and it's better then letting them win." Replied Popo
"Right." replied Nana, pushing the soldier away "Let's get them." She said
A low hum could be heard as Roy stood still, his sword beginning to glow. Calling upon his Sword of Seals and the Fire Emblem embedded in it Roy drew in mass amounts of power, until his sword glowed white, like a thousand suns, beaming a glow that blinded those that opposed him. His fellow Smasher stood back as he unleashed the power in his blade, bringing it down toward the floor and creating an explosion that blew the soldiers away, sending them down the hall with a grand display of force.
"Hah, hah, hah!" Roy breathed, after unleashing such a blast of power, his body sizzling slightly from the attack
"Beep Beep." replied Mr. Game 'n Watch, dragging the unconscious body of a soldier
"Good of you to come Mr. Game 'n Watch. We could surely use your assistance." Replied Marth
"Beep Boop." replied Game 'n Watch, throwing the body at a group of soldiers
"Chu!" cried Pikachu, sending a group of soldiers out of the mansion with a blast of electrical energy
"Ha hah!" yelled Mario, throwing a soldier into another soldier, the force of the throw sending them cascading out of the mansion
"Hyah!" Link yelled, his blade making short work of a few soldiers
"Hy!" Kirby cried, a rapid succession of sword swings bringing down yet another group of soldiers
Soon the four stood back-to-back as they fended off attacks and retaliated against their oppressors, their true powers coming to surface after being repressed for so long. As they battled the Smashers truly felt like them selves, fighting with everything they had.
The Smashers fought and fought, the night going by as they battled the soldiers. Soldiers few out windows and through walls, crying out in pain from the attacks they suffered at the hands of the Smashers and before long the tables began to turn on the army that had invaded their home.
"Sir, are forces are dwindling, we cannot win this fight." replied the second in command
"This is impossible, my army has lost to them!" he yelled, "I see why the reps wanted the Smash Brothers out of the picture. With power like that they could take over easily." he said
"Sir we must retreat. Their may not be any casualties but the injured are just pour in." the second command replied, "We cannot keep supplying fresh soldiers into the battle."
"Fine then, order a retreat, we cannot defeat them. They are just too powerful for us." The commander order, getting into a nearby car
From within the mansion the Smashers could see that the soldiers were backing away, leaving the mansion, and ceasing their attack.
"I don't believe it, I don't freaking believe it…we won, we won!" Falco cried out, overjoyed that the battle was ending "…not that I didn't think we would." he said, quickly composing himself
"Sahweet!" cheered Peach, hopping up in down in excitement
"ROOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRR" roared Bowser, unleashing his pride in one full-blown roar
"Will you all stop with that infernal yelling?" asked the psychic pokemon, Mewtwo
"We won!" cried Young Link, hopping up and down in pure ecstasy
"Yes!" cheered Ness, delighted with the news
"I am glad for that." Replied Zelda, breaking from her trance
"Let us go after them and finish them off once and for all." Ganondorf suggested
"No, let 'em run. They know now not to mess with us." Replied Fox, rubbing his shoulder
"I'm with Ganondorf over here." Replied Falco, "We should get them while the getting's good."
"No, we're not so ruthless." Replied Zelda
"Speak for yourself." Muttered Ganondorf
"Besides, I am not sure about all of you but I am exhausted."
"Me a too." Replied Luigi, coming through the door
"Jiggly!" cried Jigglypuff, running over to Kirby in a flash
"Waah!" he cried as Jigglypuff tackled him, bringing him to the ground and embracing him tightly, "Help!" he yelled, trying in vain to pry himself from Jigglypuff's grip
"I suppose I could rest as well. Even powers such as mine need to be replenished from time-to-time." Replied Mewtwo
"Yeah, me too." Replied Young Link
"One problem, most of the rooms are totaled, where are going to sleep?" asked Captain Falcon "I don't mind sharing a room though…" he said with a devilish grin "How 'bout it Sam." He asked, eyeing her deviously
"Three, two, one." Muttered Peach before a loud clang could be heard as Samus's arm cannon connected with Falcon's head
"This is a going to be a problem." Mario mumbled, scratching his head
Well this is the next chapter of my story. Sorry it took a while but I hope you enjoy it. The next chapter is coming soon. A little hint for the next chapter, the 'Hands' aren't very happy about the small war that went on in their mansion.
