"You did WHAT?!" Ganondorf screamed as he lifted Wolf by his jacket and pushed him against the wall.
Wolf didn't even flinch. He just answered Ganondorf with the same glazed look in his eyes. "I'm just skipping a few steps of your schedule. In my opinion, you take way too long to get things done. I captured Fox in half the time it would've taken you."
"Where did you put him?!" Ganondorf hissed.
"What does that have to do with anything?" Wolf asked.
Ganondorf banged Wolf against the wall. "Where did you put him?!" He screamed.
"I'm not an idiot," Wolf said, "I didn't put him in with the rest of the trophies."
"Did you put him in with Mario?!" Ganondorf asked.
"Yeah," Wolf said, "So?"
Just then, a deafening alarm rang out through the castle. Ganondorf threw Wolf to the ground.
"Bowser!" He yelled, "Get your koopas to cover all of the doors. Where is Dedede?!"
"What's going on?" King Dedede asked as he ran into the room.
"I want a waddle dee at every window!" Ganondorf told him, "Don't just stand there! MOVE! Don't let those two escape!"

Fox and Mario ran through the dungeon.
"They would be-a keeping the trophies just-a down this way," Mario said.
They passed empty cell after empty cell.
"Why would they have to lock trophies in a cell?" Fox asked.
"So no one tries to-a free them," Mario said.
"Touché," Fox said and they continued to run through the dark hallway.
Finally, they found them. All of the trophies were collecting dust in the same hallow cell. The two were surprised to see how many had already been collected. But before they could even attempt to get inside the cell, they heard the same earsplitting bell that sounded throughout the castle.
Wolf appeared before them. "How the heck did a plumber and fox get out of that cell?"
"Well it wasn't easy," Mario said, "There was a large amount of-a smashing and-"
"Shut up," Wolf snapped. He hit Mario on the head with the handle of his blaster, knocking him unconscious. "One down," he said, "One more to go."

Captain Falcon walked through the forest. Everything was very serene. Well, it was until he heard a loud boom of thunder.
That's weird, he thought, It's barely even cloudy.
"PIKA!!!"
Captain Falcon saw a familiar bright yellow flash right before it tackled him to the ground.
"Pika! Pikachu!" Pikachu squeaked at the captain.
Captain Falcon laughed. "So you're the one I've been following for the last three hours."
/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\
Falco whistled as he strolled along the faded dirt path. He was loving every minute of his nagging-free walk.
He heard a crash of thunder and saw a streak of lightning. He looked up at the sky. It didn't even look like a storm was coming. He suddenly ran into something hard. He looked down to see the Blue Falcon. Falco chuckled. He flipped the switch on his headset.
"Hey Fox," he said, "You'll never guess who's here."
Silence.
"Fox?" He asked again, "Yo, Foxie, you there?"
"Would you mind coming to pick your friend?" Wolf said, "Apparently we don't need him right now."
"Holy shit!" Falco said, "What the hell did you do?"
"It's not my fault you're a little late to the game."
"Don't give me all that intimidating talk!" Falco shouted, "I don't freakin' need it right now! What the hell did you do to him?!"
"Come see for yourself," Wolf chuckled, "We're in Mushroom Kingdom. Princess Peach's castle to be exact."
"Since we're being exact," Falco said, "What are you doing there?"
Silence.
"Scum bag," Falco muttered. He banged his fist down on the car. He stared at it for a split second. Before he knew what he had done, he was behind the wheel of the first place F-Zero racecar and speeding down the road.
Falco laughed to himself. "How do I even know how to drive this thing?"

Ike hoisted Marth off of the ground. He staggered a bit after Ike's little tap, but he shook his head and regained his balance.
"Marth," Lyn said, "You go after Sheik. Try to catch up to her and help her find Link."
"Think you can handle that?" Ike smirked.
Marth rolled his eyes.
Lyn ignored them and continued. "Ike and I will see if we can find out where Ganondorf went."
"Got it," Marth said and turned for the door.
"Hey Martha," Ike called after him, "Be careful out there."
"You too, princess," Marth replied.
"Um… Thanks?" Lyn said.
"Actually, I was talking to Ike," Marth laughed and closed the door behind him.
"I don't get it," Lyn said.
Ike shook his head. "He thinks he's witty."
Marth quickly ran in the direction Sheik had gone, but she was out of sight by now. Marth stood with his sword hanging at his side and looked around. She couldn't have gotten far.
Marth was right. He was blinded by a puff of smoke, and in an instant, Sheik swiftly knocked the sword from his hand and grabbed his arm. She twisted it behind his back and held him against a tree.
"Calm down!" He said as he squirmed to break from her grip. "I'm not going to stop you. I'm here to help."
Sheik sighed and let go.
"Do you work for Princess Zelda or something?" Marth asked as he dusted himself off and fixed his hair.
"You could say that," Sheik answered. Idiot, she thought.
"Well let's not waste time," Marth said.
"Suit yourself," Sheik said and dashed into the forest, and with a final flip of his hair, Marth followed close behind.

"WHERE THE HELL IS MY CAR?!" Captain Falcon screamed in agony as he stared at where the Blue Falcon should have been.
"Pikachu," Pikachu shrugged.
Captain Falcon was near a mental breakdown, during which he would assume the fetal position and talk to all of those little voices inside his head. They were such good listeners…
"Pika?" Pikachu stopped the captain from hyperventilating.
"It was right here!" He shouted, "If that god damn warlock took it, I'm gonna-"
"Chu!" Pikachu gasped.
Captain Falcon took a deep breath. "S-sorry," he said, "I'll get us a ride."
He took out a small device and started pressing buttons. Moments later, the Falcon Flyer was hovering down before them.
"Pikachu!" Pikachu said excitedly.
Captain Falcon sat at the driver's seat, and Pikachu sat on the floor beside him.
"Here's the plan," Captain Falcon said as he began pulling levers and turning dials, "Samus and Snake have probably gotten Samus's power suit by now. We're going to pick them up, then we're going to kick some ass. Not to mention, get my car back."
"Pika!" Pikachu nodded.
The Falcon Flyer rose off the ground, and they were off.

Ness and Lucas sat in a booth with the Ice Climbers, Kat and Ana. Ness idly played with the straw in his glass. Lucas stared blankly at the table.
"We should have been there to help," Popo said.
"It's not your fault," Nana said.
"It's my fault," Ness said.
"Oh, shut up. It's no one's fault!" Kat said, "None of us knew Bowser was there. No need to be so nostalgic."
Lucas made a small sob. Nana put a hand on his shoulder.
"We're going to get him back," Ness said.
"All of us?" Lucas asked shakily.
Ness nodded.
"I'm in," Kat smiled.
"I guess that means I'm in too," Ana said.
"Ditto," Popo said. Nana nodded in agreement.
Ness turned to Lucas. "How about you?"
Lucas hesitated, but nodded.
"Well then are we waiting for?" Kat giggled. She looked at Ness. "Lead the way, chief!"

Wolf tossed the headset aside. He stood right outside of Fox's cell. Mario was still out cold in the cell next to his.
"How long does it usually take him to get places?" Wolf asked, "I don't want to be waiting too long. I'm tired of trying to be patient."
"Isn't your lack of patience the reason Ganondorf is pissed right now?" Fox asked.
"Oh shut up," Wolf snapped, "I don't need his stupid little plans to tell me when to beat the crap outta you or that bird."
"I swear I'll kill you," Fox glared at him.
"I'd like to see you try," Wolf smirked. He walked away from Fox's cell and checked in on Mario. He was still lying on the ground; grumbling something about spaghetti. "Idiot," Wolf mumbled.
