Return of the Subspace Emissary: Multiverse

It Begins Again

Location: Subspace Dimension, Time of Day: Unknown

"It has been a long time." A voice said in the recesses of a particularly dark dimension. The owner of the voice could not be seen but it seemed to echo throughout the entire area.

"They thought they defeated me but they were wrong." The voice said. A dim glowing could be seen from far off. The light was blue in color and, in the vast darkness that the dimension was enveloped in, seemed like no more than a speck.

"I may have been defeated by them last time, but this time will be different." The small speck of blue light increased in brightness. The vague shape of a figure could be seen.

"This time, I will win." The figure speaking could be seen increasingly clearer. It seemed to resemble a person, a blue human figure.

"I shall become the most powerful being in all existance." The figure continued to say in his booming voice. At this point it was revealed he had an audience of sorts. It consisted of various creatures of differing shapes and sizes. The most common being was a type of purple and green humanoid creature with red eyes and an emotionless face.

"And I will defeat anyone foolish enough to oppose me." The figure boomed out. Its voice echoed through out the area with amazing volume.

Location: Smash Mansion, Smash Dimension, Time of Day: Morning

"Another day at Smash Mansion. Another lonely day." Said the giant white disembodied hand as it floated through the halls. This was Master Hand, a being of incredible power and the overbearer of the famous Super Smash Brothers tournament. Or at least, he would be if there was a tournament going on. However, the last tournament ended a long time ago and the combatants all left. The elaborate mansion that they all stayed in was now vacant. Aside from Master Hand himself, the only ones who were left in the gigantic building were his brother Crazy Hand, and R.O.B., one of the participants from the last tournament who decided to stay in the mansion.

"This place feels lifeless without them." Master Hand said as he looked at a picture on a wall, a picture of all of the participants of the last tournament. "I really miss those guys."

"HEY, BRO!" Someone yelled. Master Hand knew who this voice belonged to. His suspisions were confirmed when his brother, Crazy Hand, came into view. Like his brother, Crazy Hand was an overbearer of the tournament. However, Master Hand handled most of the business due to his brother's lack of a stable mind.

"What is it, Crazy?" Master Hand said to his brother.

"HAVE YOU SEEN R.O.B.? I WANNA PLAY RACECARS" Crazy Hand shouted very loudly.

Master Hand was disoriented from his brother's loud volume. "Could you say that any louder?" He asked. "I don't think my hearing was damaged yet."

"Okay," Crazy Hand said, before shouting even louder than the first time. "ROB'S GONE!!! NOW WHO AM I GONNA PLAY TWISTER WITH?"

Master Hand flew back from the sheer volume his brother just yelled at.

"I didn't mean it literally!" Master Hand shouted. "Besides, I thought you said racecars. If… wait, what?"

After getting past the fact that his brother said something so loud and actually thought about what he said, he sped down the hallway. Eventually, he came to a hallway were the rooms of the Smashers were. Master Hand passed the doors until he came to the door to R.O.B.'s room. The door to the room was open wide enough to look inside. As he went inside, he saw that the robot who normally resided in this room was nowhere to be seen.

"That's weird. R.O.B. doesn't usually leave the mansion these days," Master Hand said. "Where could he have gone to?"

Location: Subspace Dimension, Time of Day: Unknown

In the dark recesses of the Subspace dimension, a new figure was beginning to stir. This figure turned out to be a robot. This robot was mainly off-white in color and had a large wheeled base, a slender body with a pair of red mechanical arms, and a head consisting of only a pair of black lenses for eyes.

R.O.B.

R.O.B. was currently in sleep mode, as indicated by the shutter covering his eye lenses, but the shutter started to lift as he woke up. He rotated his head around, noticing that the area around him seemed unusually dark.

"This place seems familiar," R.O.B. said. His thoughts were interrupted when he caught movement out of the corner of his eye. Turning around, he was preparing for anything, but was relieved to see someone familiar. It was a black figure that resembled a person and appeared to be two-dimensional.

Mr. Game & Watch

"R.O.B.? Is that you?" The two-dimensional figure said.

"I am surprised to see you here as well, Game & Watch." R.O.B. said. "As a matter of fact, I am wondering exactly why we are here."

"I see you two have risen," A voice said behind the two of them. Both R.O.B. and Mr. Game & Watch turned around to see the blue glowing figure from before.

"Tabuu." R.O.B. said, a sense of displeasure and anger in his robotic tone. He remembered how this being, the ruler of Subspace used his fellow robots to sacrifice themselves to develop and activate his Subspace Bombs so that the world could be drawn into Subspace. It was because of him that he had no home to go back to.

"I thought we all took care of you." Mr. Game & Watch said, startled that the creature was still alive. The last he remembered of Tabuu, he was defeated by the Super Smash Brothers after they entered Subspace to stop his plans.

"It appears you thought wrong." The ruler of Subspace said. "Now I will resume with my plan. And the two of you are going to help me."

"No I won't!" Mr. Game & Watch shouted. During his previous plot, the 2-D figure was used to produce Shadow Bugs, which were a vital material for his plans. The process was very painful for him and he did not intend to relive it.

"I refuse." R.O.B. said, sharing his companion's ideas of Tabuu.

"Who said I would be giving you a choice in the matter?" Tabuu said. "Fortunately, I had enough Shadow Bugs left over from my previous plan to give a suitable jump start to this one."

As if on cue, several of the dark purple spheres known as Shadow Bugs appeared and gathered into piles that eventually formed shapes. In a matter of seconds, they formed into purple humanoid creatures with brown hands and feet, green armor, and red eyes. The two Smashers recognized these creatures as Primids, the main grunts of the Subspace Army.

"Attack!" Tabuu ordered. The Primids then began advancing on Mr. Game & Watch and R.O.B. Some were holding weapons, such as swords, laser cannons, and boomerangs, while others were unarmed. Their two opponents were prepared for the battle that they would be entering.

A Primid rushed at R.O.B., sword in hand, but before it could reach him, the robot shot at him with a powerful laser blast, knocking him away. Two ran at Mr. Game and Watch who hit them with a chair that seemingly came from nowhere, following up with a swing from a giant match to knock them out. R.O.B. sped forward at another Primid and swung his arms forward at it. He then continued punching until the Primid fell. As another one came up with a boomerang, it threw its weapon at R.O.B. He jumped over the weapon, then using a blast from jet boosters in its base, hovered over to the creature, then generated another blast from his boosters to blow it away. A Primid carrying a laser cannon aimed at Mr. Game & Watch and fired. His back was turned at the moment and he got blasted, but he managed to get back up. The Primid fired again, but this time, Mr. Game & Watch managed to catch the shot in a bucket he had. It shot two more times, both getting caught in the bucket. Afterwards, the 2-D figure ran at the Primid and threw the oil, that materialized from the shots in the bucket, at the Primid, following up with a headbutt with a diver's helmet that appeared on his head.

As the two of them were fighting the squad of Primids, they did not notice that one of them was standing away from the crowd. It had a large gun in its arms, waiting for the right moment to fire it. The gun went unnoticed in all of the commotion of the fight, as it emitted a purple glow as it was charging.

Then finally, when the moment presented itself, the shot was fired and two black arrows with a yellow glow to them were fired from the gun. The two Smashers were still too occupied to notice the gun until the last moment. But, when they finally turned around, it was too late.

The arrows hit both R.O.B. and Mr. Game & Watch. As they did, both of them began to glow with a bright light. When the glow faded, both Smashers were found to have been turned into lifeless trophies of themselves. The trophies resembled the fighters in great detail and were both placed on round golden bases.

"Yes," Tabuu said, looking at the two trophies. "The one called Game & Watch will provide me with more Shadow Bugs and the one called R.O.B. will provide me with more robot drones and Subspace Bombs. An admirable start to my plan."

A swarm of Shadow Bugs engulfed the two trophies, then from it, formed two copies of R.O.B. and Mr. Game & Watch, both with a dark aura around them.

"Even the group that stopped me the last time will not stop me." Tabuu said, a sinister tone in his voice. "This time, I shall succeed."
