...How long has it been since I've updated this?

But whatever, I've somehow managed to come up with another chapter for this, hehe...

The door to Final Destination was open, each of the Smashers stepped inside with caution. The area around them was quite...strange. There was a swirling mess of blue and purple in the sky, the platform the Smashers were standing on was flat, and the only thing greeting them was a floating left hand.

"INTRUDERS! the hand screamed, startling the Smashers. Mario began to frantically wave his arms, "Crazy, wait, we were just-"

"INTRUDERS!" the hand yelled, again. This time, his fingers began to move violently as he flew in circles, "QUICK! CLOSE ALL THE DOORS! SEAL THE WINDOWS! GRAB ALL THE ICE CREAM AND SMEAR IT ON THE WALLS! EVERYONE LOVES WALL ICE CREAM!"

"THAT'S ENOUGH, CRAZY!" Another voice yelled. Another hand appeared. This time, it was a right hand, "How many times have I told you not to freak out like that?! Especially in front of our guests!"

"...Wait, we have guests?" Crazy asked, dumbfounded, he faced the Smashers. He would smile if he had a mouth. "Hello, guests. Shouldn't you be at the Smash Mansion?"

The Smashers stared at Crazy Hand with a deadpan expression, Mario looked up at Crazy Hand, "Uh...I remember Master Hand telling us to go home, for a little while. It's been two months since we've been there."

"I'm glad you remembered, Mario," Master Hand said, joyfully. "Of course, if you may recall, I've never said what reason there was for you to go home, now did I?"

The Smashers became deep in thought for a small moment. Sonic's ears perked upwards, "Oh yeah, you never told us anything. All you did was tell us to go home."

"Well, I'm happy that some of you Smashers have made it, here," Master Hand said, happily. However, his voice began to change into a more serious tone. "You see, a witch threatened to take over the universe, using you Smashers as her pawns to meet this goal."

"Well, isn't that nice," Zelda said sarcastically, "What kind of business does she have with us?"

"Oh, she has a lot of business, actually," Master Hand said, "for starters, your friends have disappeared without a trace, am I right?"

The Smashers said nothing, they stared at Master Hand with wide, open eyes.

"That's because I ate them," Crazy Hand said, innocently. Master Hand faced his brother, "No you didn't!"

"...Meanie!"

"As I was saying," Master Hand said, facing the Smashers, again. "This witch has everything to do with your missing friends. Have you found anyone with a gloomy aura around them?"

Fox shook his head. "No, but we found a Chain Chomp with this so-called 'gloomy aura'." The vulpine said, using air quotes.

Master Hand began to calm his fingers, "Well, believe it or not, this witch has the power to brainwash Smashers, making them do whatever she pleases."

"hm..." Mario began to think, "Didn't I read a story about brainwashed Smashers?"

"What are you talking about?" Zelda asked

"It was a story about these girls turning into Pokémon, then they-"

"Enough!" Master Hand yelled, "As I was saying, I need you to find this witch, but if you just run up and fight her, you may suffer the consequences."

"So, what do we need to do?" Mario asked.

"For starters, you're going to need to find this," Master Hand said, showing a strange crystal, "This is only a replica, but you're going to need this in order to stop the witch. I call it the Smash Crystal."

The four Smashers groaned in unison, Zelda's hand was over her face. Fox looked at Master Hand as though he's gone insane. "OK, for one thing, what kind of name is that? And another thing, hasn't this been done however many times, already?"

"Especially in my universe?" Mario interrupted. This time, it was Master Hand's turn to groan. "Well, I know it isn't very creative, but we have to call it something!"

Crazy lifted one of his fingers.

"And no, we're not calling them 'toilets'," Master Hand said, sternly. Crazy Hand pounded himself on the ground, "You big meanie!"

"And another thing," Master hand, said, "You have to destroy this crystal. But this will not be easy. It's in the witch's possession, and the other Smashers will do whatever it takes to stop you, so I suggest freeing them from the mind control whenever possible."

"riiiight," Mario rubbed his arm, feeling a little uneasy, "So, not to sound rude, but why can't you do this, yourself?"

"Because unfortunately, the witch casted a spell on us," Master Hand said, sadly, "We're unable to leave this place, even if we tried."

"Yeah, just watch this!" Crazy Hand said as he tried going through the door, only to have a strong force blow him back. The left hand just sat there, making the Smashers worry about the hands.

"That's not good at all," Zelda said, concerned, "Is there any way you could help, at all?"

"Of course there is," Master Hand said with a calming voice, "I will be taking you to Smashville. From then on, you must find the Smash Crystals and defeat the witch. Unfortunately, that is all I can do for you."

"I understand," Mario said nodding. "You can count on us, right guys?"

"Of course," Zelda said, folding her hands behind her back.

"Yeah, no way we're losing to a witch," Sonic said, proudly.

"Yeah...what Sonic Said," Fox yelled.

"Very well," Master Hand raised his fingers, "good luck."

Afterwards, a bright light enveloped the Smashers, sending them to Smashville. When Master Hand was done, there was a blank space from where the Smashers once stood.

"So..." Crazy Hand began floating again. He turned to face his brother, "Do you wanna play Rock, Paper, Scissors?"

"Not now, Crazy," Master Hand grumbled, "I'm tired."

"Well, maybe if you weren't such a meanie, you'd be an awesome brother!" Crazy Hand ranted. Master Hand would face palm...if he had a face, "Oh, would you just act your age, already!"

"What does it matter, I'm a hand!"

"A very childish hand!"

"So?"

...ugh..."

Meanwhile, back at the Smash Mansion, Kira was walking down the halls, her mind was still on the missing Smashers. She was just a few Smashers away from ruling this world.

She was heading into the surveillance room. There, she could check on which Smashers were doing which. Some of them were located in the jungle, others were in the Research facility. Things seemed like they were going smoothly. Still, she had to wonder where the remaining Smashers were.

"So, did any of you find anything?" the witch asked.

"Nothing, yet," a green plumber grumbled, "All we can say is that the wild life here is afraid of us. And to top it all of, Donkey said he was going to search for the Smashers on his own. I wonder why that is?" The plumber stopped his train of thought to pay attention to the witch, "But anyway, we're heading into Smashville as we speak."

"Very well then," Kira looked at another screen, "and what about you, Marth?"

"I'm afraid not, Ms. Kira," Marth said, disappointed, "All that's here is sand. We'll just have to keep looking."

Not a moment too soon, a black 2D figure appeared onto the screen, ringing his bell in front of Marth. The prince just stared at Mr. Game and Watch, feeling slightly emberassed.

"Well, keep trying," Kira said, looking as disappointed as Marth was. The witch decided to look at the screen below Marth's screen. "Red? What about you?"

"Nope, nothing!" The Pokémon Trainer said, shaking his head, "But I promise, we'll turn this place upside-down if we have to."

Kira sighed, just where were these Smashers? They could be just about anywhere, by now. The witch's patience was running dry, she might have to look for them, herself.

"Ms. Kira? Permission to speak?"

The witch turned her head to see a young woman with long blonde hair and a blue dress. Next to her was a chubby yellow star child.

"What do you want? Have the newcomers given you trouble, already?"

The young woman shook her head, "No, it's not that, at all."

"Then what is it? Spit it out, Rosalina!"

"Well, I was thinking that we should give up on looking for those Smashers," Rosalina said. Kira scowled at the woman in front of her, "And tell me why we should give up on this?""

"Well, if we keep searching, then we'll just be wasting time," Rosalina said, nervously, "I'm sure we can move on without-"

"Oh, should I remind you about the three Smashers who tried to rebel against me?" Kira asked, in a bitter tone, "They certainly weren't expecting me to fight back, were they?"

"N-No, but-

"I've already killed three Smashers, I can certainly kill another." Kira finished. A smile began to form on her lips.

Rosalina swallowed nervously, she didn't say anything. Kira came up to the tall woman, glaring at her, "I suggest you go back to the balcony with Wolf, do you understand me?"

"Y-yes, ma'am," Rosalina said as she exited the room with her Luma. Kira shook her head, leaving the surveillance room. She had no idea how she could put up with these people.

Ehehe...I'll admit, it was fun having the hands interact with the Smashers, especially Crazy Hand.

...but sorry if this story is sort of starting off kind of generic...and a little cheesy. I'll do whatever I can to make things better, I promise.
