Part IV:

I know Brawl has come out (I've been busy with it). So, I know you guys are gonna think this story sucks because it's not a part of the official Subspace Emmissary. True, but, please, read on! I promise you will like it regardless of what really happened there. I already had the story planned out. I will still try to remain as true to it as possible!

Part IV:

The Great Journey

Fox, Link, Kirby, and Sonic walked away from the city and wondered what was to come next.

"Well, now, we've got to deal with this" said Fox "Where to first?"

Sonic looked around and spotted something and said "What about that place?"

He pointed to a jungle.

"Jungle Japes? Looks dangerous" said Fox

"Come on. It'll really be a good warm-up" said Sonic

"Indeed, Fox" said Link "There is no jungle nor land that I shall fear"

"Man, you guys are into it" said Kirby

"Fine, let's go to Jungle Japes" said Fox

They went through the Jungle and walked through.

"Wow, this is really dangerous" said Sonic out of sarcasm "When do we get to the good part?"

"Wait!" said Link "I sense a presence in these woods…"

There was a long pause. Then, out of nowhere, a giant figure appeared right in front of them. It was D.K.

"D.K.? What're you doing here?" said Fox

"Me do not like Sonic on band" said D.K. "He from Sega! He cannot do this!"

"Uh… Didn't we already go over this?" said Sonic

"Me challenge you to fight!" said D.K. "If me win, you quit from band and me replace you! If me lose, then me leave you alone"

"You don't wanna do that" said Sonic "I'm better than I look, ya know"

"D.K.!" said Fox "We can't fight each other, we have an army to fight!"

"No! Me no rest until Sonic off band!" said D.K.

"We can't fight!" said Fox "Not now!"

"Come on, man, this'll be a piece of cake" said Sonic

"Fine" said Fox

"Okay, D.K., you're on!" said Sonic

"Be careful, Sonic" said Fox "D.K. may look stupid, but he's really strong"

"Then, I'll fight strength with speed!" said Sonic

"You ready?" said D.K.

"Ready when you are!" said Sonic

They both lunged at each other. Sonic sped to D.K. at full speed, but D.K. hit Sonic full power with one punch. Sonic fell over a few feet away.

"See, I told you he's tough" said Fox

"Yeah, well, I'm just warmin' up!" said Sonic

Sonic got up and revved up a Spin Dash and collided into D.K. Sonic prepared for a homing attack and homed right into D.K. Then, D.K. slammed on the ground hard and created an earthquake, sweeping Sonic off his feet. D.K. slammed Sonic in the ground with a head butt. Sonic was stuck. D.K. was getting ready for a full power punch. Sonic tried to worm free of the ground. Suddenly, Sonic burst out with a spin attack, collided into D.K., jumped in the air, rapidly kicked him, and finished it with a spin attack that bounced off D.K.

D.K. fell to the ground in defeat.

"How was that?" said Sonic

"Nice, Sonic" said Fox

"Me no believe it" said D.K. "Me defeated by Sonic the Hedgehog…… Me guess Mario was onto something when he allow you to join in band. Me sorry to disturb you. You worthy fighter"

Sonic chuckled to himself.

"Well, now that Sonic won, can we go now?" said Kirby

"First, me would like to ask favor" said D.K.

"Sure thing" said Sonic

"Thank you" said D.K. "My nephew, Diddy Kong, went into jungle and never return…"

"Diddy Kong?" said Sonic

"A monkey" said Fox "Red hat and shirt"

"… Me worried about Diddy, he may be in trouble" said D.K. "Me have no energy left to help. Will you find him?"

"Hmmm, sounds like he really wants us to help" said Sonic

"Okay, D.K., we'll find Diddy" said Fox "And don't worry, he'll be safe and sound"

"Me appreciate it" said D.K.

Fox, Link, Kirby, and Sonic went deeper into the jungle to find Diddy.

A few feet down the road, the four had agreed to split up and search.

Fox wandered aimlessly through the woods hoping to find something. Then, he reached a lake. He thought he heard something and hid behind the bushes. Then, he saw someone.

"Diddy" Fox said to himself

It was Diddy! Fox was about to jump up and go to him, but he heard something in the lake. Suddenly, something burst out from the lake. It was a giant green serpent. Fox remembered someone showing him something like this: Requaza.

Requaza then fired a beam at Fox's direction and grabbed Diddy and roared. Fox jumped up from the fire that the beam caused. While in midair, Fox did a fox illusion which he, at great speed, rammed into Requaza's hand and relesed Diddy from his grasp. Fox landed on the shore of the lake. Requaza was mad and fired a beam at Fox. Quickly thinking, Fox pulled out his reflector and reflected the beam right back at Requaza, then, he fell in the lake.

Fox walked over to Diddy, who was confused on what happened.

"Hey, Diddy, you okay?" said Fox

"Yeah, I'm fine, thanks" said Diddy

"Good" said Fox pulling out his communicator watch "Guys? Guys?"

"Yo! What's up, Fox" said Sonic through Fox's communicator.

"I found Diddy!" said Fox

"Cool! We'll catch up to you!" said Sonic

"Meet me at the lake" said Fox

"Alright, I'm already on my way" said Sonic

He hung up.

Suddenly, Fox's communicator went off and Fox answered it.

"By the way" said Sonic "Where's the lake?"

"Never mind, I'll come to you" said Fox

"Alright, see you there" said Sonic

Fox hung up.

"You ready to go, Diddy?" said Fox

"Go? Where?" said Diddy

"You're uncle told us to find you" said Fox

"Uncle D.K.?" said Diddy "Alright, let's go!"

They walked through the jungle until they ran into Sonic, Link, and Kirby.

"Hey, guys, we've got some bad news" said Sonic "Look"

Fox looked up in the sky and saw that the halberd was looming overhead.

"That can't be good" said Fox

"It isn't" said Kirby

Then, Diddy spotted something and yelled.

"What is it, Diddy?" said Fox

"No! Uncle D.K.!" said Diddy

Fox looked in the bushes and found that D.K. was turned into a statue.

"Oh, no, they got him" said Fox

"These guys are gonna pay for this!" said Diddy

"Uh, guys" said Sonic "We have a big problem"

Fox turned around and saw bowser, only he was darker.

"I do not think that is bowser" said Link "I sense a feel of evil within him"

"Isn't bowser evil in the first place?" said Kirby

"Yes, but it is too evil even for him" said Link

The bowser laughed an evil laugh.

"Come on, guys, let's take care of this!" said Sonic

They all started battling the dark bowser. His moves were a lot like the real bowser's. The bowser started to over come them.

"He's too strong for us" said Fox

"Just a little more, guys!" said Sonic "He'll wear out soon"

"I don't think this is working out!" said Kirby

Then, Link spotted something glowing in the air. It was a bluish sphere. Link jumped up and slashed it until it broke. Then, Link felt great power in him and dashed to the bowser. Two triforces surrounded the bowser and Link rapidly slashed at him until the last strong blow which utterly defeated him.

"Whoa!" said Kirby

The dark bowser laid on the ground until it became multiple tiny dark fuzzballs that dispersed quickly.

"Wow" said Fox "Link, where'd that come from?"

"I do not know" said Link "I spotted something in the sky and destroyed it, then I had the desire to release tremendous energy from within"

Fox thought about it, but shook it off and said "Hey, Diddy, you alright"

"I'm fine, Fox" said Diddy "but, what about Uncle D.K."

"I don't know" said Fox

Suddenly, Bowser (the real one for sure) jumped out of nowhere and picked up D.K.

"Bwahahahahahaha!" said Bowser "Fell right into my trap"

"Hey! Give him back!" said Diddy

"Bowser! What are you doing here?" said Fox

"I'm here to take what I came for!" said Bowser

"So, you're the one behind all this, eh?" said Sonic

"Don't be stupid, hedgehog!" said Bowser "But, keep that thought in mind, farewell!"

"Wait! NO!" said Diddy

Bowser flew away in his flying machine.

"NO! NO! NO!" said Diddy

"We should get going" said Sonic "We have to go after him!"

"NO!" said Diddy "You guys continue on, I'll go after him!"

"You sure, Diddy?" said Fox

"Yes!" said Diddy

"Okay" said Fox "Link, Kirby, Sonic, let's go"

"Right" said Sonic

Fox, Link, Kirby, and Sonic separated from Diddy to continue on. Little did they know they were being followed.

To be continued…
