A/N: Sorry for the late delay again, but I had to do a trailer for my next YouTube story as well as reviewing some omy fellow author's stories. Anyway, here's the next saga which involves Pichu, Falcon, Falco, Samus and Snake's rescue. Enjoy.
Chapter 3: Bee Hive Galaxy showdown:
Mario remembered this place well. This planet was a home to peaceful bees which protect their flowers and honey in it. When Pikachu, Link and Fox sees this, they were gobsmacked.
"Wow. Giant bees" said Fox.
Suddenly, a guard bee ran in panicking. "The hive is under attack. Some robot crickets appeared and been causing chaos and held the queen bee captured."
"Robot crickets?" asked Link.
"I guess they must have the other trophies. Follow me" Mario rushed up the pathway onto the cliff. The others followed.
Pikachu spotted Pichu's trophy and grabbed it as it disappeared back to the Observatory. Then they found a mushroom which was coloured like a bee.
"Pika?" Pikachu looked at it as 3 more appeared.
"Grab it and you'll see" Mario said as he picked up one. At this moment, his clothes changed to what looked like a bee costume. Fox's jaw dropped to the ground as Link rubbed his eyes and Pikachu scratch his ear. "Pick it up and you'll become a bee and fly for a short while to rest. Be careful not to hit any water or you'll lose the transformation."
Link, Fox and Pikachu picked it up and they were dressed as bees.
"This is so embarrassing" Link grumbled.
They flew to a tunnel leading to a star canon. They fired to another part of the planet which has lots of holes and small robot crickets.
"Just get rid of them" Fox said as he scratched his butt "And this costume is making me itchy."
They managed to defeat the small enemies. They found Captain Falcon's trophy and when Mario picked it up, it went back to the Observatory.
"That's 2 down 3 to go" said Link "Now does that boss keep the queen bee in."
"On that big tree" Mario pointed to the tree in the further distance.
"Pika Pika, Pikachu!" Pikachu said pointing to a small fountain. On the platform was Solid Snake's trophy.
"Here's the plan. Link and I will take care of the boss" Fox said "Mario, Pikachu, could you get Snake out of there?"
"Remember, you two. The boss's weak spot is to slam them on the body" Mario advised them.
"Right." Link said as he and Fox got into a star launcher and shot off. Mario and Pikachu used the other launcher to launch them towards the fountain.
"Pikachu Pika" said Pikachu as he was about to put his small feet onto the water.
"NO, PIKACHU!" Mario pulled Pikachu away "touch the water and you'll lose your bee powers. Just fly over it and get it but don't hit the water."
Pikachu nodded and flew over the water, dodging the water that sprits out and grabbed Snake's trophy and then landed on the other side. The trophy disappeared and Pikachu's timer on his costume wore out and he turned back into his old self again.
"Pika Pika?" Pikachu looked confused.
"Oh yeah. I almost forgot, that your costume goes out once a while" Mario said "Look, there's another mushroom. Grab it!"
Pikachu nodded and grabbed it making him wear the bee costume again.
Meanwhile, Link and Fox arrived on the battle ground where the saw a giant queen bee tied to the tree as well as the trophies forms of Falco and Samus.
"Oh hello. Are you trying to save us? Thank you and be careful. He's coming." The queen bee cried.
Suddenly, a giant cricket robot landed behind Link and Fox. They dodged as it charged at them. Link almost fell off but he grabbed hold of a flower and swing around.
"How do you let go of this thing?!" Link called.
Then he let go and he was just above the cricket. Taking out his sword, he stabbed it in the back.
"Nice one, Link!" Fox cheered.
The cricket got up from the attack and sprouts out wings and flew around the tree dropping bombs. Fox and Link grabbed the flower and swing to the top, let go and got themselves holding onto some nectar on the tree.
"Now I see why bees hang onto this thing" Fox said.
"Hold on. Here he comes now" Link said.
The cricket was below them and they leapt down and hit him on the back and then leapt off as it got very angry. At this point, Mario and Pikachu flies in.
"I see you managing well on your own" Mario smirked.
"Ha-ha-ha, very funny!" Link said "Now we made it angry."
The cricket bounced around trying to squash them. The gang managed to jump onto each flower and swings around couple of times before all leaping off at the same time. Pikachu used Thunder, Fox used his blaster, Link used his Master Sword and Mario used his Ground Stomp. Each one hits them. Then the robot broke down and collapsed.
Link used his sword to cut the rope.
"Oh thank you so very much" said the queen bee "how could we ever repay you?"
"Is it OK if we take those trophies" Fox asked as he pointed to Falco and Samus' trophies.
"Oh sure. Take them. They're all yours".
"Pi-Pi-Pika" Pikachu thanked her.
Link grabbed Samus and Fox picked up Falco and they returned to the Observatory. They get rid of their bee costumes and revived the trophies they saved.
"Who, what, where, huh?" Falco looked around shocked.
"You're alright, Falco?" asked Fox as Ness, Lucas, Cloud, Crash, Toon Link and Sonic joins them.
"Pichu, Pi, Pichu?" Pichu looked around confused.
After explaining everything to them…
"I see… we'll do everything to help you save the others" Samus said.
"Well, we could use some assistance. Right now, everyone is scattered across the galaxy" Rosalina said.
Snake looked at the computer "Hmm… it seemed that a mysterious kid named Young Link is found on a robot planet. That is where Bowser JR planned his attack at the Robot Reactor".
"Young Link? I know him." Falcon said "he's that little kid who was with the OOT Link a long time ago."
"There was another Link?" Link said.
"Yeah" Mario said "Young Link was you, but you watched as he was killed by Bowser. We were grieved in guilt. But when we see you in your Twilight Princess version, Link, we thought you could replace him."
"And you did a pretty good job on that as far as I concerned" Cloud said.
"Pika" Pikachu agreed.
Link smiled and then spoke as a general "To the Robot Reactor to save Young Link. Let's move!"
Meanwhile, in the dark part of the galaxy, Bowser was playing the piano as Andross sat bored and Mewtwo leaned onto the piano. Ganondorf walked in, not so happy with Bowser.
"That was ridiculous and appalling!" he snapped "your son failed to destroy Mario, Link, Fox and Pikachu!"
"I don't see what the big deal is" Bowser said as he spotted as Bowser JR bring his tea in "we got away with the princesses and Lucario. And you knocked them off so they must be dead."
"We KNOW we got away with them" Ganondorf snapped "And the big deal… is that Mario, Link, Fox and Pikachu are still alive! Rosalina saved them. And getting rid of them was YOUR SON'S PART! And they rescued 11 of their friends! Bowser, I am going to replace your son!"
Bowser spat out his tea over Andross.
"HEY, WATCH IT!" Andross snapped.
"Replace Bowser JR. I like that" Mewtwo said as he leaned on his chest looking at Ganondorf as he wagged his tail.
"You can't replace my son" Bowser said as he held out a piece of paper "My name's on the stationary."
"That's right, smart-guy" Bowser JR said "unless you want to buy a new stationary, you RESPECT ME!"
"It's a really nice stationary too" Wolf said mocking Bowser JR.
"You two had never been more wrong" Ganondorf said.
"Oh thank you…" Bowser said and then he realised what he said "What? What do you mean?" He spilt more tea on Andross.
"Always spill the tea on me, Bowser!" Andross snapped.
"Allow me to replace his replacement, Wario and Waluigi" Mewtwo said as he turned to Wario and Waluigi who were playing cards.
"WHAT?!" Bowser JR snapped.
"Give my son a second chance, Ganondorf" Bowser got onto his hands and knees as he was begging for Ganondorf. "He won't make the same mistake, I'll promise" and he kisses his feet.
"Stop grovelling!" Ganondorf snapped "You're lucky that I am giving your son one last chance. But Wolf's keeping an eye on you, so you make sure that Link, Mario, Fox and Pikachu dies, understand! Or Wario and Waluigi take your place!"
"I promise sir" Bowser JR nodded "I promise to bring their trophies to you. Come on, Wolf!"
As they left, Wario and Waluigi smirked evilly.
"A permission to take his place, huh? Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" Waluigi said.
"I do…" Wario said "if Bowser JR fails, release the zombie. Wahahahaha!"
