Master Hand sighed from his perch on the roof of the Smash Mansion. Nintendo had finally forced him to go greet the to-be Brawlers, and he certainly wasn't ecstatic. How was he supposed to be, after the rude men in black suits had quite unceremoniously dragged him out of his shiatsu appointment? I mean really. A Hand needs its shiatsu. Anyhow, Master Hand had somehow ended up here, on the roof of Smash Mansion, and he was currently watching the unruly group of Brawlers do their thing. The She-Man (Master Hand giggled at his genius nickname) was currently snoozing away, while that wretched angel and the Pokémon trainer were watching him quite creepily. The two crazy Ice Climbers were nowhere to be seen, which quite frankly scared Master Hand, and Ganondorf was sitting in a corner glaring at everyone. Bowser sat curled into himself, and every few seconds he would pat his shell and murmur. How strange. Master Hand scoffed as he regarded the group.

"The best heroes and villains of their realms? How embarrassing."

With that thought, Master Hand swooped down from his perch and prepared to greet the unsuspecting Brawlers. Might as well make an entrance.

"Hey Zelda, do you think we should wake Marth up? I mean he seemed pretty upset when he fell asleep." Link said rather worriedly as he stared at the snoozing prince. Zelda's tinkling laugh resounded over the yard.

"Well Link, the first thing you said to him after years apart was that he still resembled a girl. I think that dignifies him to be a little upset." Zelda said, winking at Link who had the decency to look slightly ashamed. "And anyways, those two are watching him like hawks. I expect that if you wake him, they might maim you." Zelda looked pointedly at Red and Pit, who were personally appointed as Marth's bodyguards while his royal highness slept.

"I guess you're right." With that Link slowly walked off towards Peach, where the two promptly began discussing the quality of tea leaves. Again.

Zelda shrugged and walked off towards Samus, who was currently occupied in an intense game of tic tac to with Fox.

"Come on Fox! Beat this cross dresser!" Falco crowed from behind Fox, who slowly wiped a bead of sweat from his forehead.

"Sssh Falco, you're distracting him!" cried Mario, who watched as Fox hesitantly drew a shaky X onto the tic tac to paper.

"HA! I WIN!" Samus cried victoriously as she drew an elaborate O on the paper, creating a full line. From behind her Pikachu, who had shown up a few minutes prior, and Kirby, cheered.

"Poyo Poyo!"

"Pikaa!"

Falco groaned as Fox fainted from the sheer intensity of the game, and Mario sadly handed two bananas to the awaiting Diddy and Donkey Kong.

"A deals a deal." He muttered before grumbling and walking away, while the two monkeys bellowed and cheered.

Suddenly, a bright flash of light blinded everyone in the front yard of the Smash Mansion. "WELCOME COMPETITORS. I AM MASTER HAND. BOW DOWN BEFORE ME."

Everyone groaned and rubbed their eyes as Master Hand finally came into view.

"Well took you long enough..." Samus muttered as she picked herself off the floor.

"WHAT WAS THAT?" Master Hand bellowed, basking in his superiority.

"Could you tone it down, some people just woke up." Marth grumbled as he sat up and glared at the white glove. Master Hand sniffed, but ignored the comment.

"I am Master Hand, as you all probably remember." He began, only to be interrupted by two voices who yelled in unison. "We remember!" Aaah, the Ice Climbers.

"Anyhow. I welcome all of you to Nintendo's new franchise Super Smash Bros Brawl. As some of you may recollect, it is very much like the previous game, Melee. 35 competitors will compete in tournaments, battles and many other opportunities that will show off your skills. Yada yada yada. Anyways. I assume you are all acquainted, because now I will introduce to you your new competitors!"

The yard was soon filled with whispers about "new competitors" and even Luigi came out of a bush to listen.

"So, I will first introduce-" Master Hand's loud voice was soon interrupted with a screech as Peach pointed towards the sky.

"It's a bat!"

"It's an arwing!"

"It's a Quidditch player!" Everyone stared at Ganondorf.

It turns out that no; it wasn't a bat, an arwing, or even a Quidditch player. It was Meta Knight. Meta Knight, who was currently plummeting from the sky. Pit, being the angel that he is, swooped up and with a flourish, caught the falling knight. Weak cheers emitted from below, as the grinning angel landed softly and laid the unconscious Meta Knight onto the floor.

"POYO!" Kirby's excited voice echoed throughout the yard. Slowly, Meta Knight opened one of his eyes, and then screamed, causing the rest of the group to scream.

"Y-you…h-how could you do this to me?!" Meta Knight screeched as he shot up in the air and glared at Master Hand, who nonchalantly shrugged.

"Everyone, this is Meta Knight, from Dreamland." With a sneer, Meta Knight landed once more and backed himself into the shadows and as far away from Kirby as possible.

"Oooh, so is he a friend of Kirby's?" Luigi's curious voice asked feebly. His response was a hiss from Meat Knight's corner. Luigi hid in a bush.

"Anyways. He will be one of your new competitors. Now, my favourite part…" Master Hand said evilly. With a quick clap, the lights in the yard dimmed. How this was possible, nobody knows. A spotlight appeared on a portal nearby, and everyone turned to see Master Hand holding a rather large microphone.

"Tacky." Peach muttered from somewhere.

"Ehem. INTROODUCING, THE RAVISHING MERCENARY AND STAR OF THE GAME, FIRE EMBLEM: PATH OF RADIANCE; IKE GREIL!"

The portal suddenly flashed to life, and a tall handsome man with blue hair stepped out. He was dressed like a warrior, with a bronze sword strapped to his side. Link nudged Marth. "Do you know him? He's from your game isn't he?" Marth said nothing, but glared at the newcomer. Ike hesitantly stepped out of the portal and walked to Master Hand's side, trying to ignore the pairs of eyes ogling at him.

"NEXT, HERE HE COMES, THE SELF PROCLAIMED KING OF DREAMLAND HIMSELF, KING DEDEDE!"

Another flash and out came a fat, penguin like creature, carried by four little Kirby-like balls.

"BOW DOWN BEFORE ME, I AM YOUR KING" King Dedede shouted, earning eye rolls and an angry growl from Kirby.

"RIGHT THEN, THIS HERO YOU MAY NOT RECOGNIZE, BUT HERE'S OLIMAR AND HIS PIKMIN!" Mater Hand shouted in introduction.

Out came an astronaut, with for little plant like creatures following him. Someone booed in the crowd. Olimar bowed his head and shuffled to the line, where a sympathetic Ike patted his shoulder hesitantly.

"Well that was rude. ANYWAYS, WHO'S THAT I HEAR? IT'S WARIO!"

Mario, Luigi and Bowser groaned in the crowd. Through the portal came the fat mustachioed man riding his motorbike.

"ITS-A WARIO, BAHAHA!" Everyone shuffled uncomfortably.

"Um ok. WELL HERE COMES THE OLD GUY HIMSELF, MR. GAME AND WATCH!'

The 2D man shuffled out of the portal and lifted his hat in a way of greeting to everyone. He quickly side stepped towards the group of Brawlers and sat down. "Hey, wasn't he in Melee?" Falco whispered to Fox.

"I have no idea."

Mr. Game and Watch beeped angrily at that. How could one simply forget Mr. Game and Watch?

"ALRIGHT THEN! WE'RE DOWN TO OUR LAST FEW! HERE COMES THE SLEEPY POKÉMON HERSELF, JIGGLYPUFF!"

The little puffball that is Jigglypuff swiftly stepped out of the portal and fell asleep. Naturally.

"NOW HERE HE IS, OUR FAVOURITE CAPTAAAIN FALCON!"

There was silence at first. Then out of the portal fell Captain Falcon himself. Except he wasn't the jaunty and overly confident Captain Falcon everyone remembered. He had a look of pure fear on his face and he kept muttering about hands.

"…the hand…up a building…terrible..." the Captain muttered before curling into fetal position. Master Hand coughed nervously. "Hehe, just an accident with my brother Crazy, nothing to worry about…"

"There are more of you?" Luigi whispered in pure terror. No one had the heart to answer him.

"Well then! These are your competitors! I'll let you all get acquainted!" With that, Master Hand spun around and disappeared. Most likely, to his shiatsu appointment.

The new group of Brawlers stood around awkwardly for a few seconds.

"Well, um. Hi." Link began.


A/N Yea, the end was kinda cliffhangery...SORRY! And the introductions were a bit rushed, but this chapter was getting pretty long and I didn't want to bore you wonderful people! So, many of you noticed that I'm missing a bunch of Brawlers in the intros! You're right, I did that on purpose because they have a very special chapter planned for the future ;) Please Review :)
