SUPER SMASH BROS.: DARK MATTER
Story by: JSandders
A Multi-genre, Cross-over, Super Smash Bros. Story
Oh no! Mr. Game & Watch has been "destroyed" by the enigmatic stick figure! Only time will tell on Mr. GNW's fate... or... the investigative capabilities of the Smashers.
In the Introduction, I had stated that Master Hand will introduce to the Smashers the Gate of Games. What could this be? Well, I'll tell you one thing, it's NOT a gate! X) Hehehe! Thought it was a gate didn't you! NO! The Gate of Games is not a gate at all. Read and find out what I'm talking about.
Another notable question is, "What are these other worlds that Master Hand is talking about?!" Very good question! XP Well, I've got a list of different worlds that the Smashers shall visit and I shall reveal some to you:
-MARIO's World (Which is this story right now), Mushroom Kingdom
-Sonic's World, Mobius
-Sora's Universe, Whatever-the-hell-it's-called! XD
-Me....n's World, The Ne...
Kl....'s World, Ph....le
Dammit! The computer has a virus that won't let me reveal the other worlds! Oh well, at least now you have a clue on a few mystery worlds. :D

All in order of when they were founded!)... I hope these producers are good clues for you to figure out characters! X)
Here's Chapter One. Hope it keeps you curious.
So here it is. LIGHTS, CAMERA, ACTION!
Mario and Sonic were still duking it out on the Mario Circuit stage. Mario at this point was already very pissed because he hasn't injured Sonic as much as Sonic injured him. And to make matters worse for the Plumber in Red, Sonic was adding insult to injury by running around the track 72 times.
Finally, Mario was angry and he didn't focus on his public image (being the VERY GOOD guy!) which he tried to keep at good standards with his fans. He was so irritated that he tripped Sonic as he was just passing by and set his tail on fire with one of his fireballs (I KNEW IT!).
Sonic yelled in horror as he saw his precious blue fur ignited by the fireball and started running around Mario in a comedic way that everyone in the crowd started laughing. They laughed even harder when Sonic accidentally ran into a Shy Guy racer and got knocked off the stage.
Mario was breathless, he couldn't stop laughing!
Then he noticed that Sonic was already back and received a powerful punch on his bulbous nose.
The fight continued and the people watched in awe as Sonic was fighting with his max speed and noticed that Mario wasn't Mr. Very-nice-guy anymore neither.
Then the brawlers were stopped by two familiar characters. Pit had descended from the clouds along with the Ancient Minister and both went in between the two rivals.
"Pit?"
"Good day, Sir Mario."
"Pit, haven't I already explained to you that those-a kinds of formalities are not-a needed! Just-a call me Mario!"
"I'm sorry Mario, you're just so REMARKABLE!"
"Hey! What about me?!"
"Oh... hey there Sonic..."
At this, a toon vein popped out of Sonic's forehead, "What do you mean, 'hey there Sonic...'! You can call me Sir Sonic anytime you want!"
"Yeah, sure thing Sonic... anyways," Sonic now had a second toon vein pop out of his forehead, "Mario, Master Hand requires your presence. Something terrible has just occurred."
"Something terrible? What-a happened?"
"Mr. Game & Watch has been destroyed..."
To this, both Mario and Sonic gasped, "WHAT!"
"I-it's the truth. We both witnessed his obliteration caused by an enigmatic foe. He just touched Mr. Game & Watch and some sort of reaction occurred... I'm afraid Mr. Game & Watch is no more of this world."
"O-oh! R.O.B.! I didn't-a see you there," quoted Mario, "You're telling me that GNW is-a dead?!"
"Affirmative... your meeting with Master Hand accompanied by the other Smashers is of the utmost urgency. I suggest that you go immediately. That includes you, Sonic."
"WHAT!" shouted Sonic, "You can't expect me to walk around with Mr. Big Nose here!" At that statement, a toon vein popped out of Mario's forehead, "This shorty will slow me down! And I HATE slow things! And I most certainly HATE him!"
"Silence you fool! Now is not the time for mindless scuffling! Report to Master Hand as we continue to summon the other Smashers!"
"GRRRRRRRRR.... Fine. Let's-a go!" said Sonic in a teasing manner.
Mario was as red as a tomato right about now and was ready to smash Sonic's face in with his hammer, but Pit put his hand on Mario's shoulder and gave him a smile, "Forget about it, Sir Mario. He's far inferior to you, anyways!"
"I heard that kid!"
The Ancient Minister, who was also known by his real name as R.O.B., was processing in his robotic brain the best solution to prevent the two from jumping at each other and finally he had processed the best solution... he shot Sonic in the butt with one of his lasers.
"OW! What the HELL was THAT for, MAN!"
Then he shot Sonic again, "OWW!! Dammit, man! That hurts!"
Then he shot him a third time, "GAH!! R.O.B. you swine! I'll go to the hand! Geez!"
At this, R.O.B. nodded to himself and gestured Pit for them to go.
"Okay, Sir Mario, it is time for us to leave you. Make sure to meet up with Master Hand in the Smash Mansion."
"Okee-dokee. Let's-a go!"
"Whatever, dude. Let's just get this over with."
And at that, Mario waved at the crowd and Sonic did his signature thumbs up, receiving loud cheers and ran off to the Smash Mansion (with Sonic reaching the Mansion in a few minutes).
Eventually, all the Smashers (except for Mr. Game & Watch, of course, and a few others) had arrived at the mansion to see what Master Hand will do to resolve this problem.
Master Hand was still not there and they were all waiting for him in the Main Lobby of the mansion.
"When's Master Hand coming?!" argued Capt. Falcon in the back.
"Don't worry, he'll be here soon, right Mario?" replied a worried Peach.
"Right." answered the ever-anxious Mario.
Then suddenly, Master Hand poofed into the room along with his ridiculous brother, Crazy Hand.
"HEY GUYS!" said the ever joyful Crazy Hand.
Everyone looked at both floating hands and gulped at what Master Hand would probably say about Mr. Game & Watch.
"Good evening, Smashers... As you should know by now, Mr. Game & Watch is gone."
Somewhere in the room, some of the younger smashers wept for the loss of a Smasher, "Who did this to him?" asked the depressed Lucas.
"We don't know. Based on what Pit and R.O.B. explained, the attacker was a mysterious, black, stick figure. They said that this person just 'touched' Mr. Game & Watch, and GNW just disappeared."
"BAH! Who needs that weirdo! He's one of the most useless fighters here, anyways! I mean, come on! Who attacks with a bucket, a frying pan, and a matchstick?! It's just plain ridiculous! I mean, I can understand the hammers, but what's with the sign?! And the parachute? And the diving helmet?! What did he say to convince you to join him in Brawl?!" argued an uncaring Wolf.
"Hey! Don't talk about Mr. Game & Watch that way!" argued Popo, one of the Ice Climbers.
"And what are you gonna do about it, huh kid! Have you forgotten that HE's the sole reason why we had to fight the stupid SUBSPACE ARMY IN THE FIRST PLACE?!!"
"SILENCE!!!" shouted Master Hand as the whole Mansion shook by his deep, mighty voice, "Mr. Game & Watch, I'll let you know Wolf, was actually used against his will by Tabuu. That poor man was helplessly sucked of his mysterious matter to endlessly create an army of Subspace emissaries! He couldn't help himself! I thought we already HAD this conversation!"
"I still don't trust him!"
"You must! Without him, most of you would not have been conceived of by the Master of Creation! Mr. Game & Watch, himself, is one of the Founders of Life! He is older than you by thousands of years! I expect you to treat him with respect!"
"Grrr... fine!"
"Good... now that that mindless banter is done and over with, onto business. Have you people ever heard of the Gate of Games?"
"Gate of Games, Master Hand?" asked a curious Ness.
"Yes, the Gate of Games... Crazy..."
"Sure thing bro! Alakazam!" and with a wave of his... hand... a book appeared in front of Master Hand in the form of an explosion, giving Toon Link a heart attack. Link could only chuckle at this, "Hehe... clone."
"Crazy, don't ever do that again!"
"Always glad to be of help!"
Everybody (who cared) glared at Crazy Hand making Crazy Hand sweat drop.
"Smashers! Pay attention to me. Now, the book in front of you is called the Gate of Games. It has instructions on how to open the Interuniversal Portal. This portal will allow you to go to different worlds like your home universes."
"Is this what you used to recruit us?" asked Fox who was looking curiously at the book.
"Yes. With this, you have allowance to enter different worlds. Unfortunately, only up to 9 people can enter the portal. By going to these worlds, you shall investigate all you can about this mysterious being. Maybe you can even recruit other people to help in the investigation."
"Like some of the other Smashers who went back to their home worlds. " explained Samus.
"Sounds like a plan." proclaimed Link who apparently just kept snickering at Toon Link who was on the ground crumpled up in a fetal position.
"Some of you could actually go right now. I shall open the portal to the Mushroom Kingdom."
"What-a are we going there for? You could just-a ask me your questions cause I'm from that world, aren't I? Come on, Master Hand! It's-a me, Mario!"
Sonic snickered at this and shouted, "WHO?"
One way to explain Mario is that he's very PROUD of himself. He thinks he's so famous that everybody knows him. So if somebody doesn't know him and asks who he is, he will get a heart attack.
"ACK!!! MY HEART!!! MY HEART!!!" shouted Mario as he rolled on the ground, clenching his heart in pain as Peach and some other Smashers approached him (with Sonic laughing hysterically in the background).
"SONIC!" everyone else yelled at him annoyed, just making him laugh harder.
Finally Toon Link, who had just woken up, looked at Mario and sheathed his toon sword, "Pathetic! Even I wouldn`t get a heart attack because someone just surprised me!"
"BOO!"
"ACK!!! MY HEART!!! MY HEART!!! LINK YOU BASTARD!!!"
Now Link joined Sonic, both laughing maniacally.
Mario then shook his head and glared at Sonic. Master Hand was just too annoyed to even help and Crazy Hand was laughing along with Sonic and Link. Finally, Mario stood up and focused his mind on the task at hand, "Master Hand," making the hand notice Mario, "Why do we-a have to go to my world?"
"Because I just recently discovered that someone NOT of your world has entered your world, someone from a different universe."
"Another universe? Are there other universes beside the Nintendo, Sega, and Konami Universes?"
"I decided to overlook the other universes and their worlds. But now that this problem is afoot, we have no choice but to investigate these other worlds."
"Okee-dokee then! Luigi, Peach, Yoshi you-a three can come with me."
"Who else wants to visit Mario's World? Anybody will do."
Kirby raised his two pink arms, jumping up and down, "Me! Me! Me! Pick me!"
"Okay Kirby, you can go. Anybody else?"
"I think I'd like to go... I think..."
"Link! What are you going to Mario's World for?"
"I'm just one of those kinds of people who wants to know the new kid first, Zelda. Hope you understand."
"Like that time that you wanted to know Lucario?"
As Zelda said that, Lucario growled viciously at Link, "H-hey! I didn`t mean to accidentally spill that pink paint all over him!! Sonic ran into me!"
And as Link said that, Sonic laughed so hard, that he turned from blue to purple. Link could only glare at him.
"Go ahead Link, go with Mario. If this is what you want to do, then so be it. Have fun in Mario's world. "
"Thank you, Zelda. I shall see you soon, my princess."
"Link..." said a blushing Zelda, making Link smile a bit.
"I'll go too..." surprisingly Pikachu, with the use of the translator that Master Hand had given him before, agreed to come even though he was the type who didn't like to do these kinds of stuff.
"Pikachu?! You're coming too?"
"Of course! I mean... these other two BOZOS are going! If they go now, I won't have anyone to hang out with other than THESE bozos (points at Capt. Falcon, Donkey Kong, Fox, Jigglypuff, Luigi, Ness and Samus, "HEY!!!")! And besides, I'm getting sick of this world anyways. There's nothing new in Nintendo City and all the movies are downers! Like, c'mon! What kind of a movie is "The Wonderful Ultra-fun World of the Grim Reaper"! I'm going too."
"You just want to come because you miss traveling around like you did with Ash before joining this fight, dontcha?" asked Kirby with a wide grin.
"HEY! Ease up, marshmallow! I can visit Ash anytime in Nintendo City. Unlike you, at least I have some of my friends cheering for me!"
"That... hurts... WAAHHHHHHH!!!! You're a BAD man!!"
"WHOA! Easy there, pal! I'm sorry! Didn't mean to hurt you THAT MUCH!"
"I'm sad... I need something to eat... be right back."
"THAT GLUTTON! Always finding an excuse to go to the fridge! Master Hand DO something!"
Master Hand already had the fridge in the room (Crazy Hand was struggling to carry the giant fridge).
After a while they heard a familiar voice, "HEY! WHERE DID THE FRIDGE GO AGAIN! MASTER HAND!"
Master Hand just sighed and said, "Just drag him along with you. I'll just open the portal." after saying that, Master Hand chanted an ancient language (which mysteriously sounded like beeps and bleeps) which was echoic in the now silent room and glowed brightly, then when he snapped his fingers, a bright light lit the semi-dark mansion and continued to shine brighter. Eventually, the light dimmed down and revealed a bright, colorful portal in front of the Smashers.
"Are we just going to walk in there?" asked Kirby who had just returned from the kitchen.
"Yes. Just walk in normally and you'll appear in the world I specified in the chant. If you wish to go back here, all you have to do is say that you want to go back."
Link nodded along with the others and said, "Alright then, let's depart"
"Oh yes, Mario..."
"What is it-a Master Hand?"
"Recruit Bowser while you're at it."
"Oh, right... Bowser... whatever you-a say, Master Hand. Let`s-a go!"
And with that they entered the portal and reached the other side, the Mushroom Kingdom...
Mario, upon entering, breathed in the air he knows so dearly... then he turned green and fell down on the ground twitching. As a matter of fact, it wasn`t just him who felt like doing that, some of the other Smashers also felt like doing the same thing.
"What is that SMELL!" said a disgusted Peach.
Luigi looked behind him and quickly screamed, "WAAAHH!!! MARIO!!!"
Mario, recovering from his temporary state of shock, turned around to find a Garbage Can Ghost and quickly jumped towards Luigi, "Luigi! Use-a your Poltergust 3000!"
"R-right! Take-a this you stinky behemoth!"
Luigi flipped the switch of his Poltergust 3000 on and quickly shone a flashlight at the ghoul, exposing his heart. The ghost was stunned and this gave Luigi the perfect opportunity to use his Poltergust 3000 and the Garbage Can Ghost was sucked into it.
"Good-a job, Luigi! But there are-a more coming!" shouted Mario as more Garbage Can Ghosts accompanied with Gold Ghosts and Purple Punchers started approaching the Smashers.
The other Smashers, wanting to be helpful started attacking the ghosts... but... they are GHOSTS! Their ordinary attacks just couldn't hit them.
"Darn! We can't attack them with ordinary weapons!" argued a disgruntled Link.
"Luigi! What's that special flashlight you`re using on the ghosts? " asked a Gold Ghost Kirby.
"It's just an ordinary flashlight!"
Pikachu perked up and said, "It's just ordinary light?! Then... PIKACHU!!!" shouted Pikachu as he shot a huge wave of electricity at the ghosts, stunning them all in the process.
Luigi then quickly set his vacuum to Super Suck which was so powerful that all the ghosts just got sucked in.
After that was done, they then congratulated Luigi who just blushed embarrassed, "It was-a nothing!"
"Where are we?" asked a curious Golden Ghost Kirby.
Peach turned to Kirby and gave him a sweet smile, "Why, we're in Luigi's Mansion!"
Pikachu's ears perked up, "Say what?!"
"It doesn't look like his mansion... I remember it being smaller... and less infested by ghosts." explained Kirby.
"That stage is just a replica of the real, darker, scarier version. And it seems like this mansion is still infested with ghosts." explained Yoshi.
"Oh yeah, Luigi... I haven't asked you how you got this mansion yet..." asked Pikachu.
"Whuh? Oh, the king of the ghosts-a gave it to me..."
"Eh... how ironic..." proclaimed Pikachu with a sweat drop.
"And then it-a disappeared and I built a new one with my money."
"DAMN! Are you rich?" asked Pikachu, a big smile and glittery eyes spread on his face.
"Kinda... I-I guess so... a-are we rich Mario?"
"Um... well... I guess so... but most of our money is-a with Peach and Daisy..."
"DAISY! Oh God... we're-a poor, Mario..." doing his ever famous hands-on-the-side-of-his-face look.
"I guess-a she spent it all on buying orange dresses, right?"
"Now that I-a think about it... she had a second closet in her-a bedroom... oh-a brother..." said Luigi, face-palming
"WHOA LUIGI! What were you and Daisy doing in her bedroom?" taunted Pikachu.
Luigi just blushed at this and said, "N-n-nothing like THAT!"
Pikachu laughed at Luigi`s stammering and didn't notice the Green Ghost Catcher lunge at him while they both fought in a dust cloud.
"Mario..."
Mario looked at the direction of the voice and found that it belonged to Link, "What is it, Link?"
"Er... shouldn't we be looking for that person Master Hand talked about... a-and Bowser?"
Mario blinked and said, "Oh! Right! Let's-a go, Luigi!" practically dragging his brother away from Pikachu who was beaten up pretty badly.
Link helped Pikachu up and placed him on top of his shoulder, "Just like Ash, right?"
"Y-yeah... thanks, man."
"Anytime, Pikachu. Let`s get out of here."
As they exited the mansion, they heard it give off a ghostly whale before all the lights exploded in the mansion.
"And that, my friends, is-a why I don't live in there..." said Luigi in a monotone voice as if this had already happened before, and what do you know! It did!
Kirby, Link, and Pikachu had only experienced traveling like this when they were going to the Isle of Ancients and loved the idea of flattening Goombas under their feet and hitting the floating blocks.
Kirby, who's ghost appearance had already disappeared along the way, let out a cheerful giggle, "This is fun! Your world ROCKS Mario!"
Mario along with the other three just laughed as they lead the way to Bowser's castle.
Along the way, Kirby had found a Super Mushroom and used it to become Giant Kirby, while Pikachu was now proud to be a lightning and FIRE Pokemon thanks to the Fire Flower. Link was just walking and checking out Mario's world as he was kinda creeped out by the fact that everything in Mario's world had eyes.
"If you're-a wondering about the eyes, Mushroom Kingdom used to have many people like me and-a my brother. Unfortunately, Bowser turned everybody into-a blocks or other random things. We still can't convince him to-a change back the people because he's-a afraid that they will rebel against him." said Mario who was watching Kirby jump on several Goombas in his Giant Kirby form.
Link just smiled at Mario and continued walking on with the others.
Eventually, they reached a dark area with its sky covered in sulfur clouds. This place seemed to contradict the happy feeling of the Mushroom Kingdom, "Welcome to the Dark Land, everybody. Here we will-a recruit Bowser first, then when that's-a done, we'll ask-a his right-hand woman, Kammy Koopa, if she is-a willing to help us locate this mysterious person." explained Mario.
"Good plan, Mario! Now all we have to do is try to convince Bowser to join us again." said Yoshi.
"Don't worry, he is a Smasher! I'm sure he'll join us..."
"MARIO!!!"
"G-god! Was that Bowser?!" said a shocked Kirby who was back to normal.
"MARIO!!! YOU GOT A LOT OF NERVE COMING TO MY CASTLE NOW!!!"
"Hello, Bowser!"
Bowser came down from the top of his castle using his Koopa Clown Car with a scowl on his face, "MARIO!!! WHAT DO YOU WANT!"
"I just-a want to talk!"
"WELL?!! WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?!! SPEAK!!!"
"Master Hand wants everybody to regroup. Something bad has-a happened."
"What?!"
"Mr. Game & Watch has-a been destroyed!"
"And I should care, why?!"
"Bowser! Doesn't it bother you that he's-a gone?!"
"That freak had it coming! I still don't understand why he's even a Smasher! Oh, and that reminds me, WHAT THE HELL ARE THEY DOING HERE!!!"
"Who? These three? They-a wanted to come with me."
"SCREW Master Hand and his Interuni-whatever Whats-it!! I don't give a DAMN about the freak! I don't give a DAMN about Master Hand! I don't give a DAMN about these freaks! And most certainly, I don't give a DAMN about your problems, Mario!! Get out of my property!!"
"That's not ALL, Bowser!"
"WHAT?!!!!" said Bowser with fire literally coming out from his mouth as he was already very annoyed by the presence of Mario.
"There's-a someone else here, in this-a world, that we don't know of and I need Kammy's help to-a figure out who it is."
"FINE!!! Anything to get you out of here!! Except for you, Peach... you can stay."
"NO!!!" said a very annoyed Peach.
"Grrr... KAMMY!!! GET YOUR BUTT DOWN HERE!!!"
And somewhere in the background, we hear shattering glass and a scream (but it seemed more like a screech), "WHAT!!!" shouted a voice as equally annoyed as Bowser's.
"GET YOUR BUTT DOWN HERE AND MAKE MARIO AND HIS EGOTISTIC FRIENDS GO AWAY!!!"
"DO IT YOURSELF, YOU SCUMBAG!!! I'M BUSY!!!"
"Excuse me, Peach..." said Bowser as he flew away somewhere in his castle, "MOVE YOUR BUTT, WOMAN!!!"
"MOVE YOUR OWN STUPID BUTT!!! I`M MAKING A CONCOCTION THAT WILL MAKE ME EVEN MORE BEAUTIFUL!!!"
"DAMMIT KAMMY!!! YOU`RE NOT BEAUTIFUL!!! BUT YOU ARE GOING DOWN THERE!!!"
"MAKE ME!!!"
"FINE!!!"
The next thing the Smashers saw was a Magikoopa flying out of a window from above them somewhere, "AHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!" At this, the other Smashers just sweat dropped.
Then the Magikoopa stood up and glared at the Smashers who were staring at her, "NOT EVEN A SINGLE GENTLEMAN!!!"
At this, the Smashers sweat dropped and tried to approach her.
"DON`T MIND IT!!! You're already too late, you douche bags! What do you want?!!"
"We... uh... er..."
"What Pikachu means, Kammy, is that we need-a your help to look for someone." said Mario.
The Magikoopa got up on her broom and started floating above the Smashers, "And WHY should I help you?!!"
"Because this person is not from your world and they're messing up the land that you're trying to conquer." said (unbelievably) Link.
"And who are YOU supposed to be, kid?!!"
"I'm Link, ma'am, and these are my friends, Pikach..."
"LET me stop you right there, kid. I really don't care! You looking for an intruder? Fine! Let me get my crystal ball. Let's see ...LIGHT UP YOU STUPID... oh... he's... here."
"Wait... WHAT???" asked all the Smashers and just on cue, a small black being with yellow eyes appeared in front of everybody including Bowser who had just come out. Then all of a sudden, some kid with a strange outfit came and sliced down the creature with his equally strange weapon. Then more of those creatures appeared and everybody went into an offensive stance.
As the boy sliced down some of the beings, he noticed that the others who were with him were doing the same thing. He then reverted his attention back to the creatures he was fighting and hit them with his unusual weapon.
Mario looked at some of these creatures and noticed that there were some who were floating red sacks with hats. These creatures set fire to people around it, like Luigi for example who was running around in circles as his hat was on fire. Mario quickly used his own abilities to retaliate these crimson creatures... he took out his special Flash Liquidizer Ultra Dousing Device (or FLUDD for short) and quickly sprayed these creatures who immediately were destroyed. At this, Mario smiled and continued dousing.
Kirby, on the other hand, sucked in what appeared to be a monkey with a slingshot. When he spat him out into the blue monkey who was just close by, Kirby had gained an orange complexion, an orange bow on his head, and a slingshot. He quickly shot energy balls around the field dealing damage on the creatures around him and when some came close to him, he ran away and dropped some bananas to make them slip.
Link was busy having a sword fight with some sort of creature who looked like a bandit. He quickly slashed at the creature's side and the creature stood back a bit and taunted Link who ran at it. The creature then dropped into the sand and Link tried to see where it had gone but was quickly slashed on the back by the same creature. Link retaliated and smashed the scimitar-wielding monster on the face with his shield then he slashed him with his sword and sent him flying with a well placed upward slice!
Pikachu was battling what appeared to be a strange Zubat with a hook. It was annoying Pikachu to the extent that it just flew over him far from his reach. Pikachu finally was so annoyed that he zapped it, "Pika...CHU!!!" and it flew around crazily damaging some of the other monsters.
Finally the kid from earlier slashed up the last creature which looked like a ghost in a red coat with one of its eyes hanging out on a chain. The boy looked at the Smashers and gave them a smile, "Hi, I'm Sora. Who are you guys?"
"Don't-a you recognize me? It's-a me, Mario!"
"Um... who?"
"ACK!!! MY HEART!!! MY HEART!!!"
Sora then quickly backed away from Mario and looked at the others, "Hmm... a lot weirder than the last world I was in..."
"What do you mean, 'a lot weirder than the last world'?! What about you?! All wacky and dressed up like he's from a game called Final Fantasy!" exclaimed Yoshi.
"Final what? I'm sorry. I just came here to seal the rest of the Keyholes because it seems the Heartless are taking over different universes and are trying to open the gateway to Kingdom Hearts again. I must stop them for the sake of the universe."
"What are you talking about? We have no idea what all that means! What are you doing here, boy? You don't belong in this world, kid!"
"Don't worry strange... dinosaur... lizard... thing... a-anyways! Do any of you know where the Keyhole of this world is?"
"Keyhole, you ask? " said Mario who was woken up by Luigi and Peach, "There are a lot of keyholes around here... which one are you-a looking for?"
"O-oh! The one that leads to the Heart of your world."
"The heart of my world?" asked the curious Mario who looked at his brother, Peach, and Yoshi who all shrugged their shoulders, "I have this 1-up Heart..." and he took out one of the 1-up Hearts, that he conveniently keeps in case he loses a life, and gave it to Sora who just sighed and threw it away.
"Er... no... just lead me to the Keyhole..."
Mario glared at him for throwing the Heart away but agreed anyways, "Okee-dokee then... Let's-a go, everybody!"
Then Mario lead everybody to Princess Peach's castle and showed Sora what appeared to be a keyhole standing on the ground as if it was something solid, "Here... this-a is one of the many keyholes I know of. I still haven't found the key for this but..."
But before Mario could finish his sentence, Sora's weapon's tip shone brightly. Sora swung it around a bit and pointed it at the keyhole (making Mario jump out of the way) and a beam of light shot out of the weapon and shot inside the keyhole. The keyhole then shone and then dimmed after a short while. Everyone just stared at this as Sora gave them all a wide grin.
"What was that?!" asked an astonished Peach.
"I just sealed your world's Keyhole. It will stay that way and the Heartless will bother you guys less."
"Wait a minute..." roared Bowser who discreetly followed everybody, "You're telling me that those things that invaded MY castle were brought by YOU?!!"
Sora sweat dropped and quickly responded, "N-no! They came here first and I just came to stop them from destroying this world!"
"If that's what they're doing, I'll allow you to hunt them down, kid, because only I can destroy this world!"
"If saving worlds is your mission, then you are welcome to join us if you'd like to." said Link.
"BAAH!!! Saving worlds?! Kid, you should try taking them over!! Trust me, it's far better!" said Bowser.
"Are you the villain of this world?" Sora asked Bowser.
"Kind of you to notice! I am!"
"Then I am afraid I must vanquish you!"
"Sora, no!"
Sora then eased his offensive position and looked at Mario, "Not-a now Sora... he will just hinder you from your mission."
Sora then looked at Bowser who was in an offensice stance, ready to attack, and back at Mario who was offering his hand. Sora looked back in between the two and finally decided to take Mario's hand and shook it, "Alright! Now Sora, there is-a someone from another world who wants to meet you. He's technically my-a boss and he's kinda weird looking when you first-a see him but don't be freaked out."
Sora gave Mario a confident look, "Mario, isn't it? Well, I've seen strange things along my adventures and I can certainly say that nothing will freak me out..."
After they went back to the Smash Mansion, (bringing Bowser against his will) and met up with Master Hand, "AHHHHH!!!!! GIANT, FLOATING HANDS!!!" shouted Sora when he saw the two Hand brothers.
Some of the Smashers who were there in the Main Lobby noticed that Mario had come back with Bowser and the new guy and quickly approached the new guy. These people consisted of Sonic, Zelda, Ness, Lucas, Olimar, Pit, the Ice Climbers, Fox, Falco, Jigglypuff, Capt. Falcon, Snake, and R.O.B.
"Don't be afraid of him. Think of him like you or me... he's just another person." Zelda said to Sora.
Sora looked at the people around him and shook his head, "This is the strangest world of all the worlds I have ever visited... and come on! You guys can travel between worlds by just WANTING to go back! While I have to go around evading asteroids and Heatless on my Gummi Ship! M-my Gummi Ship! I left it in your world!"
"Don't worry!" said a happy Lucas, "Master Hand will get it! Right, Master Hand?"
"Sure thing..." and as Master Hand snapped his fingers, the Gummi Ship appeared just outside of the Mansion and Sora noticed this.
"Who are you people?" asked Sora
"Hello, Sora." said Master Hand, "We are the Super Smash Bros."
Zelda, Peach, Samus, and Nana glared at Master Hand, "We never agreed to that name!"
"This really is weird... but I'm kinda interested in what you guys do."
Master Hand looked at Sora and said, "Let me explain everything..."
End of Chapter 1 in Super Smash Bros: Dark Matter
Finally! I've finished the first chapter! This took a long time to finish but it's finally done! There are a lot of referential jokes in here! I'm proud of myself! (Like Link enjoys torturing Toon Link because he finds him as an offensive clone that Master Hand recruited)
Haha! I knew Sonic was gonna be burned! And he was BURNED!! XD And the ever funny Mario-Sonic rivalry commences... good times, good times...
And the Gate of Games? It's not a gate! It's a book! And this book explains how to open the Interuniversal Portal which leads to the diff. worlds. (Actually I quickly thought of this change because I came to realize that not all the worlds will be games, just most of them!). This allows any living creature to be transported from one world to another (the reason why Master Hand can't just snap them to the next world is because he can only do that for inanimate objects. And also because if he tried, it would easily drain him of his energy for doing magic of that magnitude).
Anyways, I've also shown you Mario's world in this chapter, which included Luigi's Mansion, the Mushroom Kingdom, the Dark Lands, Bowser's Castle, and Peach's Castle. And I've introduced Kammy Koopa who's just as hot-headed as Bowser is (maybe even much more hot-headed! XD).
I've also introduced Sora! One of the major characters has finally appeared! Basically, what he's going to do here is lock the rest of the worlds' Keyholes because the Heartless are mysteriously taking over these new set of worlds. The Nobodies will also appear soon. What happened to Donald and Goofy you ask and why is Sora not looking for them? You'll find out soon enough! Oh yeah, Sora will have the opportunity to show the Smashers what he's got when his Final Smash is activated soon (Hint: a weapon mix of KH1 and 2). I'm sorry if I made Sora kinda paranoid here, he's gonna need a lot of getting used to what he's about to do. But don't worry massive Sora fans, he'll warm up eventually! I also introduced a few Heartless like the Crimson Jazz from KH2 and the Bouncywild and Powerwild from KH1 (also the Shadow, the Bandit, the Hook Bat, and the Grand Ghost).
In the next chapter, I'll skip Master Hand's explanation and make the Smashers go to their first new world! The only clue that I'll give you for the next world is "Three-headed Monkey". XD I bet those of you who know the game already know what I'm talking about! R&R!
