Scene 2: Assault on the Stadium
(scene of Pit standing by a reflecting pool)
Pit: Haha! Yes! That's what I'm talking about!
Announcer: …and a left in the eye, a kick to the ankles, a right in the nose, a fireball, a…random wooden hammer? Anyway, what a fight! Neither one of these heroes is giving in at all!
(later)
(scene of Mario and Kirby in the stadium)
Mario and Kirby shake hands, then wave to the crowd.
Announcer: (over the loudspeaker) LET'S HEAR IT, FOLKS! WHAT A MATCH!
Mario stops waving, notices something in the corner of his eye.
Mario: Hmm?
The Battleship Halberd appears over the stadium, enveloped in dark red clouds, and drops Shadow Bugs which form Primids.
Peach: (gasp) Oh, no. It looks like they're in trouble!
Zelda: Oh, you think?
Zelda runs over to the railing, jumps, and teleports with Faeroe's Wind. Peach follows with her umbrella.
Zelda: Looks like you'll get to do a hard day's work, after all, Peach. (charges her fist with electricity)
Peach: (slightly aggravated) Zelda...
Kirby: (excitedly) Poyo! Poyo!
Mario: Not now, Kirby. We've 'a' got a job to do!
(later)
Zelda: (wiping her hands) Well, that's the last of them.
Peach: Oh. (points toward the sky) Mario, Kirby, Zelda, look.
A mysterious, cloaked figure descends from the Halberd on a hovering platform and drops a large metal sphere onto the stadium. Two R.O.B. units appear and pull the sphere open, revealing a countdown timer.
Mario: IT'S A BOMB!
Mario runs over to try and defuse it.
Announcer: Uh-oh. It looks like the rest of today's events will have to be postponed for now. Ladies and gentlemen, please leave the stadium in an orderly fashion.
Suddenly, a cannonball flies out of nowhere and strikes Mario.
Mario: Ugh! (flies out of the stadium) WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUGGGHHH!
Kirby watches Mario fly away and disappear.
Kirby: (in awe) Ooooh…
He hears a clanging noise behind him, followed by Peach's screaming, and turns around to see Petey Piranha holding Peach and Zelda in giant cages.
Zelda: Don't worry about us, Kirby. Disarm that bomb, now!
Petey Piranha bangs Peach and Zelda's cages together and roars menacingly.1
1 So, who do you want to see rescued? Peach or Zelda?
