Authors Notes:
Starlll: ...Wow. Sixteen reviews on the FIRST CHAPTER. I forgot how good this feels... Thank you, everyone, for sending in your OC's! Like I said, I'm going to try to use all the OC's I get, but some will still have larger roles than others. One thing that I should have mentioned, though, is that the higher-leveled players will be introduced a bit later in the story.
Phy: You've gotten FOURTEEN fancharacters already? Dang, you won't even NEED to make your own!
Starlll: (Nods) Yeah! Which saves me quite a bit of trouble, seeing as how I've actually been mostly relying on cameos, for now. So, anyway, without any further ado (other than the disclaimer), enjoy the chapter!

Phy glanced around the new server. He was in the Summit stage. The mountain's peak was covered in ice, which reflected the nighttime sky beautifully. The northern lights could be seen from a distance, lighting up the sky with a mesh of pink and blue colors.
It was a public server, so there were at least seven or eight other players already there. Most were talking with friends (both new and old), and some were brawling across the slippery stage. But what caught his attention was two players who had just battled, now talking.
"Are you sure you won't reconsider?" Asked one player, a blue Link, the name 'ObiwanDS' hovering over his head.
"No, I'm fine. Thank you, though." The second one was a golden-colored Ike, labeled Ikerulesall. He sounded polite. Formal, in fact.
"We moderators are always looking for more players to join." ObiwanDS said. "Especially veterans. You actually BEAT me, back there."
"Again, no thank you. I appreciate your offer, but I must decline."
"Fine, fine..." Ikerulesall walked off, probably to head to a different server.
Moderators had been losing power to hackers, lately. While some players wanted to join the mods, who were viewed as the white knights of Super Smash Online, many wanted to be hackers. Some just hacked for fun, which was usually allowed, so long as it didn't turn into anything serious. But many hackers preferred to take it to the next level, trying to outdo eachother, crashing entire servers.
Phy lost track of the gold Ike. He had declined the offer to be a mod, but he almost certainly wasn't a hacker. While many players wanted to join the battle between hackers and moderators, even more just wanted to play the game. Some people liked to play as Bounty Hunters. If a Hacker became infamous enough, then the people running the MMO would put a price on whoever could catch the Hacker, and turn him in. Rewards were usually tokens, but could range from anything from stickers to entire stages. The greatest Bounty Hunter was a player named 'Sharpshooter'. He became a legend in some circles, said to use hacks in order to rope in his bounty. Others said he's an AI made by an incredible hacker. Some just say he's a fat 30-year-old in his mother's basement, but they're generally ignored. The major difference between Bounty Hunters and Moderators is that Bounty Hunters don't specifically follow the rules. They were notorious for being the hardcore players, who would do anything it took to get a job done.
Phy knew this wasn't the case. He had met quite a few Bounty Hunters in his life, including a certain player he considered to be one of his best friends. [The authoress who owns this OC knows who she is.]
"Anyone wanna battle?" Phy called out. It was common for newer players to just blurt out that they're looking for battles. It wasn't like you could just start attacking someone on a server. First, you had to send an invitation, then the other one had to accept. Then both players would head to a meta-server, where they could finally fight. It was a tedious process, but better than getting sucker-punched when you just wanted to hang out with your friends.
After a few moments, a message popped up on Phy's screen.
"JakeHeart would like to battle!"
Phy clicked 'Accept', and the two were sent to a seperate Summit stage.

Phy vs. JakeHeart
Stock: 1 Life
Stage: Summit
Items: All on Medium
Bet: 200 tokens

Phy had made a bad decision in not knowing who his enemy was before accepting the Brawl. Some players were, of course, better-suited for some stages than others. Phy had no idea at the time, but his opponent was probably one of the best choices for the Summit stage.
In front of him spawned a Pit, dressed in black. Pits of that color always reminded Phy of ravens, for some reason.
JakeHeart got ready to dodge, expecting JakeHeart to use an arrow right from the start, but was thrown off when he didn't. He stumbled on the ice (everybody hated that feature, but for some reason, Nintendo refused to get rid of it), but Jakeheart didn't take advantage of that, either.
"When you're ready, then." Said Heart, patiently.
"...Thanks." Phy, nodding. He got up, and shot a PK-fire, but Heart used his shield to deflect it, the spark rebounding, and hit the boy.
While he was trapped in the flames, Heart slashed at him with his knives, before pulling him into a spin attack. Phy retaliated by throwing his yo-yo, knocking the angel back. Phy tried another PK fire, when Heart shielded. He didn't get a chance to use his actual shield, though, so it wasn't reflected back at Phy. It was, however, enough to give Heart enough chance to retaliate with a stab.
Phy side-stepped away, getting to the far side of the map. Jake began to follow, when Phy jumped. He was about to follow, when the glacier began to crack. Suddenly, the stage was falling. Gravity was lessened, making Phy float a bit. He used a PK Thunder. Heart jumped up, ready to dodge the ball of electricity, when Phy directed it around, and to his back. The propelled him further.
Heart dodged it, leaving Phy helpless in middair. The angel flew over to him with his wings, charged up a smash attack middair, and sent the boy flying.

Winner: JakeHeart!

Author's Notes:
\
Starlll: Okay, so, for the last few days, I've gotten a flood of reviews. Don't get me wrong; I LOVE the reviews. They're good. Only, with them also came a TSUNAMI of characters. Again, I like the fancharacters. I don't really mind getting them. Heck, I ASKED for them. Only, could you all do me a favor? Put a bit more creativity in them. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad you're sending me them. Only, a few of you, honestly, didn't give me a lot to go on. Like, for example, give your character... I dunno, a speech impediment. Or, they speak only in quotes. Or, they're a hacker. Like I said, I'm not trying to insult you. Really, I'm glad that so many people sent in reviews. I'm just saying, could you please add a bit more?
Phy: Moving on...
Starlll: Right!

The Review Corner

Starlll: Okay, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the review corner! Whenever I get a really good review-
Phy: (Inturrupts him) He means one that he can make enough jokes off of.
Starlll: Right you are, Phy! When I get a funny enough review (or just one I can make fun of), I like to post it here, while my OCs and I... discuss... it. ...I swear, it's a lot better than it sounds. Just, send in your reviews, and maybe yours will get chosen!
