Narrator: Its nothing. Moving on…


Contest Sheath: Beginning strain.

The very next day Fox woke up, later than expected, as Wolf was the one that shook him up. "you're not going to make it to watch the first battle if you don't wake up so get up!"

"Oh… the tournament starts today?"

"Yes! Now come on! You're battle is pretty early on so get going!"

"nng…" Fox said, displeased that he had to be woken up. After putting on some clothes they left outside to encounter Faust, in human form.

"Oh, Hey, you're Fox from yesterday right? I remember you cuz' you're name matches your animal name." Faust said, in perfectly normal speech.

"Oh, hey Faust. Wait, what's with your speech? It's much more fluent than it was yesterday." Fox inquired. "Oh, and this is Wolf." He soon added.

"Ah… another name that corresponds with the animal… are you two dating by any chance?" This caused both creatures to blush and step back in surprise.

"Well, that is, I mean… and have you answered my question yet?" Fox uttered, trying to avoid the questions.

"Haha, well, I figure no one's speech is normal when they're half asleep, right?"

"What?"

"Oh, my battle. I should go now, Bye." Faust said, quickly heading to the simulator portals changing to beast form to gain more speed.

"Half… asleep?" Fox asked himself. Wolf just stared on in confusion.

"He's the new brawler that came around. You were probably sleeping. Now come on, let's get breakfast while we still have time and go watch his battle. Better to know your opponents skill and abilities before you fight them, right?" Fox asked, heading towards the dining room/cafeteria.

"Yeah, I guess." Was Wolf's reply, following suit.


Lucario stood in a corner pondering to himself. He was in one of the first matches today so he was also mentally preparing for the battle. In a little while Faust passed by him, and upon doing so turned around to take a look at him.

"You gotz aura too?" the demi-human asked, surprising Lucario.

"Yeah… why?" The pokemon answered with a suspicious look.

"No reason. Hey… you're cute. Can I hug you?"

"What? Wait!" But he had already pulled him into an embrace, stroking his back while he did so.

"You're soft too." He said. Lucario blushed, and later pushed him off.

"Haha. You know you liked that. I'm gonna get goin' for my battle then. Laters." Faust said, running/jogging/whatever off.

"… weirdo… even though… that felt pretty damn good." Lucario said to himself, blushing a little. "wait a minute, wasn't the needle in my chest supposed to pierce through him? What happened?" Looking down at his chest he saw that it was still there. "maybe he was wearing something to protect himself…?"

(somewhere near the simulators)

"owww, I didn't see the spike, that hurrrrrrrtttttt, owowowowow," said the half-beast, in less pain than he really was in, but nonetheless in pain. Master Hand showed up a few seconds later and told Faust to step in the simulator and prepare for his battle, which was going to be against Bowser.

"unngai!" agreed the beast as he stepped into the portal.

"Incredibly carefree or just a bit of an airhead…?" wondered Master hand as Bowser came up to step into the portal. He then floated towards the intercom to deliver the message that the battle was starting

"Attention all smashers, the first battle between Faust and Bowser will begin in 1 minute. Please proceed to the general assembly room if you wish to watch." Since most of the smashers knew that either Faust was new, or didn't know Faust was even introduced as a competitor, everyone came to watch.

"When the huge flat screen plasma TV turned on it showed the two smashers on screen, ready to fight on Delfino Plaza." (btw the rules are 3 stock, 7 minutes, items on.)

"3, 2, 1, GO!" Master hand shouted.

Bowser instantly rushed towards Faust with the intent of attacking him full force at the start of the game. He got close enough and lunged at the Demihuman, who merely sidestepped to avoid the attack.

"Is that it?" He asked. This further enraged the koopa king, and he shot at him again, lunging similarly to last time.

"Didn't work last time…" He stopped Bowser with his hand, grabbed him and threw him into the air. "So why do you think it'll work this time?" He jumped up and spiked him clear towards the edge of the starting platform. Bowser was able to latch on to the edge and get back up. "You're fighting seriously, Right?" This only managed to make the koopa even more frustrated, so he rushed head on again, only this time he dodged behind him upon getting close. "Better…" he muttered as Faust turned around to see Bowser trying to slash him with his claws. He quickly jumped out of the way, air jumped back, and flipped himself backwards with his foot sticking out to launch Bowser in the air again. Just then a Bobomb appeared in the air, and Bowser, being the closest to it grabbed it from where he appeared and threw it at him. It was a direct hit, Faust getting launched a decent distance off the stage. He did a midair jump, and recovered with a high speed claw slash that gave him the forward momentum to return to the stage. By this time Bowser was at high damage, while Faust was at moderate damage from the bobomb. The platform had landed onto the beach island off the coast of the plaza, and a pitfall trap had fallen onto the stage and immediately embedded itself into the sand upon landing. This time it was Faust's turn to rush towards Bowser, but the koopa responded with flames from his mouth. Faust instantly reacted by jumping up, but the koopa followed suit by jumping and slashing the fighter down to where the pitfall was, the demi-human becoming embedded into the sand upon landing. Bowser then used this chance to punch him off the stage, a K.O. for Bowser. Faust soon returned to the stage knocking bowser up in the same fashion and spiking him towards the edge, quickly avenging his death as he was spiked so far into the water that he was K. (or he drowned, whatever you think is best). Bowser respawned too, and it looked like the positions were reset. Faust then opened his mouth to say something.

"…Hey, I'm a little tired, so you get to see my other fighting style. Try not... to get injured too badly... nn... zz...." He said, drifting into a sleepwalking/half asleep state.

"Are you mocking me!!?!" Bowser roared, immediately rushing at him with double the force of the previous time, as to maintain a generic stature of Rushing-atness. Faust looked up at him with faded eyes, much like when he first arrived.

"haa...?" Said the dazed creature as Koopa rushed at him. As the king neared Faust made a motion to his left, and pivoted in what was a very strange sidestep, dodging Bowser's attack completely. "Huaa… what… you doing?" Was his response, as Bowser rushed at him again, again maintaining that sense of rushing-atness. "Stop…" Faust said, but to no avail, as the charging koopa prepared a powerful punch, so he did the unexpected, lifted his hand and stopped the attack with it. Everyone was taken back, but they stayed watching intently. Faust was growling, giving the menacing aura of a beast, as he threw the fist onto the floor, taking Bowser with it. Bowser's head landed on the Demi-Human's feet, which then proceeded to lift itself and fling Bowser into the air. Faust jumped after him, shifting into his beast form as he did so. He cross-slashed the Koopa, and flipped to kick him off the stage. Bowser tried to recover, but Faust quickly went to spike him to make sure he didn't recover, resulting in Bowser's KO. Bowser came back onto the stage, but a little nervous of Faust's great power. "Scared…?" The beast growled, causing Bowser to tense up, but realizing that he was supposed to be strong, stepped towards him confidently, breaking into a dash. Just then a capsule appeared in front of Bowser, and he threw it at him. Faust, on the other hand, reacted even faster than he had to the fire breath, spinning, catching the capsule, and flinging it back at him with increased momentum from centripetal force. Bowser, caught off guard, was hit by it. Though it wasn't an explosive, Bowser was knocked back a good deal due to the force of his own throw plus the added strength from spinning. As Bowser looked ahead of him Faust was gone as he tried to regain his balance. As he did, he noticed a shadow behind him. Turning around he saw the beast with a faded glare, indicating that he was still asleep. "HRAUU!" He growled as he threw a tremendous slash with its own aura, striking Bowser head on, sending him off the stage. As he attempted to recover he somehow flinched due to the wounds he had taken on, and couldn't make it back on stage. "GAME!" Master hand shouted. Both Bowser and Faust were teleported back to the teleportation pods.

"Congratulations Faust, you won the first battle." Master hand congratulated.

"Hauu… where… I?" Faust spoke, slurred speech and vision faded. He was standing in beast position.

"Um, you're in the smash mansion"

"Auu, ohkai…" He said, walking outside the room. Meanwhile an angry Bowser stomped out of the teleportation pad.
"I can't believe I lost to a half asleep dog-human…muttermuttermutter…" He muttered, storming out of the room.

"Wow, didn't think he'd take it that hard, oh well."

Back at the assembly room everyone was walking up to congratulate Faust for his victory, as he opened in human form the door Fox was the first one to give him congratulations.

"You did well, especially for your first battle." He said.

"Hauu, I did… good? I want sleep… huaa…" He uttered, falling backwards.

"Ah!" Fox grunted/shouted, quickly running up to hold him from falling down.

"Fo..x…" the Demi-human uttered, sniffing Fox, then wrapping his arms around him before falling asleep. This incited a deep blush from the vulpine, and giggles from other people.

"So, you like that Fox?" Falco was the first to speak up.

"Sh… Shut up!" Fox shouted at him, waking Faust from his half-sleep trance.

"un, What? oh, Hey Fox, sorry for what I did to you just now. I retain memories of the things I do while half asleep. Hey, Where's the dark blue jackal looking pokemon?"

"What? You mean Lucario? Oh, he's over there," Was the reply, Fox pointing directly at the now nervous pokemon.

"Alright, Thanks. Hey Lucario!" He said, running off in his direction.

"Maybe he likes him?" Was Koran's first statement of the day, walking towards Fox.

"Maybe. Hey wait a minute. AUTHOR! TELL ME WHY THE HELL EVERY GUY IN THIS FANFIC IS GAY!"

(Huh? Wait, I never did such a thing, it's only cuz you're the main focus of the story, and besides, Pit doesn't necessarily have a gender because (S)he's an angel, and I never said Seth was gay [and he isn't] didn't I?)

"Nn… fine. My battle is coming up soon anyways and I need to go prepare." Fox finished as he walked briskly towards the room with the teleportation pads. Snake also started walking towards the same room.

"Looks like its Fox against Snake eh? Who do you think will win?" Red walked up to them and asked.

"Obviously Fox." Falco answered.

"I don't know, Snake has some pretty sneaky tactics up his sleeve."

"Yeah, but Fox's speed will beat him any day."

"I guess we'll have to wait and see."

-

Meanwhile…

"Lucario!" the demi-human shouted as he ran towards the Pokemon.

"What is it?" Lucario asked.

"Did you watch my battle?"

"Yeah, you did okay."

"That's good, thanks!" Faust finished, suddenly turning Lucario and hugging him from behind.

"Wha-" Lucario stopped, noticing that his aura was… soft? And comfy? Comfy aura, huh…

"Hey, you wanna go out sometime?"

"I… I'm not…"
"Does it matter if you're gay? Besides, if this feels good to you, then you probably are." He said as he started rubbing his chest and stomach affectionately, inciting a heavy blush from Lucario along with a gasp. "So come on, let's go out sometime."

"Well, when you're doing this to me… its haaarrrd… to saay no…" Lucario said raggedly, apparently enjoying what the demi-human was doing to him.

"Haha, I'm gonna stop now. I wanna watch the next few matches." He said, stopping and starting to walk away, leaving Lucario confused about himself. In the end he called out to Faust "Hey, Wait!" He turned around.

"Yeah?"

"I… I guess we can go out after the battles…" He said, turning away to hide his receding yet still existing blush.

"That's great! Meet me at the lobby and we'll decide where to go." He said, finding a chair to sit down to watch the next battle.

"I wonder…" was Lucario's last thought before the TV came on with the next two combatants.

A repeat of last game's 3,2,1,go occurred and the battle began immediately with both players rushing at each other, ending with fox starting to circle around him on the center of Yoshi's Island.

"hm, that won't work" Snake said, turning on his mini-rotor and levitating into the air. From this, Fox jumped up and at him, which was what Snake wanted, following up with a heavy kick to the face, knocking Fox back into the ground.

"FOX!" Koran called, only to get shushed by other observers. Fox slowly got up and charged at him again, but this time leaping as he got near. He attempted to do a somersault kick, but his foot was blocked by Snakes arm. The vulpine retaliated by rolling his foot along the arm to place his hands on the floor, and used his other foot to sweep Snake off the ground (I'm not sure if these physics are even possible but just picture it for yourself xD). Upon sweeping him he lifted him up with his feet, pulling into a full handstand, and jumped up to him, returning right side up, and kicked him to the side off the stage. Snake recovered with his rotor, only to have Fox burn it out with his blaster. Fortunately for Snake though, he was able to grab the edge. Unfortunately for him, Fox was at the edge and kicked him off to his doom, taking his first life. Snake quickly came back on stage, and set some mines around the stage, causing Fox to become more careful. He didn't notice though that Snake, with his espionage skills had already snuck up to him. He grabbed him and tossed the vulpine towards one of the land mines, triggering it,knocking Fox into the other land mine on the above platform and triggering that one also, resulting in high damage, but fortunately no KO.

During this time Lucario was getting tired of standing and decided to sit next to Faust. A short while after sitting down he subconsciously leaned onto the Demi-human and didn't realize it until Faust wrapped his arm around him. "You okay?" Faust asked. "Yeah…" was his response. "I feel better like this." He added. "Good," was Faust's response. "You want me to rub your stomach?" He then asked, receiving a blush in return. "What?... sure…" Was his response. "Alright, suppress any moans you might have, haha." He said, as he got to work caressing his abdomen and chest, avoiding the spike as he did earlier, inciting heavy blushes and somewhat shifted breathing patterns as the battle kept on.

As Fox started falling down from his high launch he spun in the air and prepared a drill kick, which struck Snake as he tried jumping up to intercept the vulpine midair. When they both landed, Snake being stunned, Fox swept his tail to launch him in the air, and jumped to hit him with a series of 5 kicks, and a drill kick to send him back down on stage. This tactic was repeated twice until he was launched way too high for it to be repeated, and Fox could only wait for fall down, and when he did, he kicked in a stepping-esque way, and step-kicked Fox until he was grounded, then did a sweeping kick to sweep him up. He then threw a powerful 1-2-punch combo to finish the K.O.

"Hey Luigi, bet you -a- 50 coins dat-a Snake wins." Mario said.

"You're-a-on!" Luigi replied, the two shaking hands.

"MARIO! LUIGI! What did I tell you about making bets on battles?" Peach scolded.

"We're a sorry" They apologized, crossing their fingers.

"Guys…"

"I know, right? Samus said in her suit.

"*sigh*… if only Fox or Koran was straight…" She finished.

"There plenty of other nice people, like Olimar and Link, for instance. Even that Faust guy is pretty cute."

"Well, Link is already with Zelda, Olimar is kinda distant. And Faust… well look at what he's doing right now!" The princess said, as they looked at Lucario sitting in Faust's lap while he stroked Lucario's head, the pokemon drifting to sleep.

"Well, you never know, Faust might be Bi. " Samus finished as a yell of "MAMA F***ER" was shouted by Mario as Snake lost his second stock by a well timed smash by Fox seconds after he came back onto the stage. This resulted in Peach whacking Mario with a frying pan, knocking him out. Anyways, the score now stands at Fox with 2 lives and Snake with 1, and the time remaning being 2 minutes. Lucario had fallen asleep, and Faust had stopped to watch the game. At this point, both players were at full health, but with the extra life loss, Snake was at the disadvantage, so he decided to set up more mines. Fox rushed at him, trying to take him out before he had the chance to do that, but in doing so Snake had set a mine on Fox, jumping quickly away after doing so. He was about to press the button when suddenly Fox rushed up to him and grabbed him.
"Go ahead, Set it off. I DARE you."

And that's exactly what the soldier did, engulfing both players, both flying off the stage, but with Fox and his extra life he won. He came out of the teleportation pad with Koran standing in front of him.

"You did well, lets go." He said, holding out a hand to him.

"hah… hah…thanks…" He said, grabbing his hand.

"Are you tired? Because I can carry you."

"Just… a little. You don't mind, do you?" Fox said, semi-weakly.

"Sure. Looks like that battle took a lot out of you. Get some rest."

"Al…alright…." Fox responded, closing his eyes. Koran lifted him up and teleported back into the assembly room with him. In the room, Luigi was trying to wake Mario up to inform him that he owed him 50 bucks, and Faust was trying to shake Lucario awake, since todays battles were done (There are more battles going on aside from the ones that were had, theres more than one T.V. if you give me a pairing of characters I'll do a battle scene for them if you so desire, though i may not be farmiliar with animalistic type movements and therefore may not be able to provide decent mattle scenes for certain charachters.), and many of the other smashers talking about the battles, future battles, their events for the rest of the day, and other stuff.
