Mewtwo, Lucario and Shulk arrived at the Smash Arena. Mario described to them what was occuring.
"Sounds awful. We should recruit every character in the Smash universe. We'll obviously be needing their assistance," Shulk suggested.
"Kirby is already on that case. He'll be a while," replied Sonic. Pikachu ran over to Mewtwo and Lucario and hugged them, but Mewtwo teleported away.
"I don't do hugs," he said firmly, glaring at the little yellow mouse. Lucario happily hugged Pikachu, making his little crooked tail wag.
"Well what do we do in the meantime? Stand around here like idiots? We have to aid in some way!" yelled Shulk. "And can we penetrate that cloud?" Mario shook his head doubtfully. He didn't have any idea at what to do until Kirby returned.
"Guys! I saw what happened! I hope I can be of some assistance," shouted Pit as he flew down and landed in the arena. The other characters were thrilled to see him, since he could fly.
Pit was ordered to fly up into the cloud and see if he could penetrate it in any way. So he did. He flew up into the red-ish, black cloud and discovered the ship sitting there in midair.
"Lady Palutena!" he called, but no answer was heard. Suddenly, Calamity Ganon swarmed around in Pit's direction and exploded him in poisonous malice, taking away much of his health. He fell back down to the ground...

Ike watched from his watchtower, it was getting late and the moon was beginning to draw closer and closer. Which was... odd. Ike alerted his fellow warriors to investigate down below, because there was a stange being dancing around.
Corrin, Roy, Marth, Robin, Lucina and Ike went down below the castle to the stranger. He was wearing a strange mask, and the moon was coming closer.
"Hey! You! Stop there! What are you doing?" yelled Lucina, pointing to the stranger. He turned around, and stared at the warriors. He began dancing more intense and the moon moved faster toward the Earth.
"That's it! Attack!" shouted Roy, running toward Skull Kid. Marth, Ike and Lucina drew their swords and ran toward him. Corrin transformed into his water dragon form and attacked.
Lucina's sword scraped the mask, changing nothing. Skull Kid still danced, drawing the moon even closer. Suddenly Ike grabbed the mask-wielding person and jumped up into the air.
"PRAISE... AETHER!!" he screamed as slashed and attacked the being, scoring multiple hits. Destroying him. He disintegrated and revealed his trophy.
The moon returned to its rightful place in the galaxy.
"I think we need to check up in the Smash Arena. I sense something may be wrong," said Corrin, still in the dragon form. All warriors nodded and headed that way.

Link continued walking toward Hyrule. By himself. Without explaining to anyone why he was going or where he was headed. There were no birds. No sounds. Complete silence. Guessing even the animals ran away from the grave threat.
"Wah haha!" yelled a voice in the distance. Link stopped dead in his tracks. Searching all over in sight for the source of the noise. He looked and saw Wario, hiding behind a tree.
He had a weapon in his hands, he recognized it as the weapon that turns characters into trophies. Link took his Master Sword in hand, and grabbed his Hylia Shield. And prepared for a difficult fight. But, Wario tripped, falling and dropping the weapon, as it hit the ground it hit the button and turned himself into a trophy!
Link couldn't help but giggle and think, "What an idiot!" he put his weapons back away and continued on with his quest.
He continued to walk. As he did, he bumped into a character with an impressively large sword. Cloud.
"Oh excuse me," said Cloud. Link said nothing, and kept walking. Curious, Cloud followed. "Where are you going?" Again, Link said nothing. "You don't say much. Well since there is so much chaos going on, I'm supposing you're headed toward that large castle in the distance surrounded by red mist," Cloud stated.
Link nodded.
"In that case, I'm coming along with you. You'll probably need the assistance of my Buster Sword." Link looked back at his Master Sword... It was nothing but a knife compared to Cloud's weapon. Nonetheless he had a mission to complete.
