Disclaimer: You got to be kidding me. If I were creator, Captain Falcon's final smash would be this uber falcon punch that grows and takes up half the field then pushes them away. Like Samus. Even though it's hard to make the Falcon Punch cooler…


Chapter 10: Recovery! Wings of Icarus!

Green Greens was, well… imagine this. Three platforms are floating around in a sickeningly sweet backdrop, with rainbows and all that stereotypical girly stuff. In between the three platforms, blocks looking like cookies cover the gap though they are explosive. On the middle platform, trees with a face situated in the middle and liked to huff and puff and blow you away. In essence, think it as something to come out of a cartoon. Oh wait!

Soon a huge drone could be heard and before long, two figures crashed onto the middle. Both crashed into opposite ends of the stage. Well, Kirby plopped down just fine. Pit, on the other hand, landed hard.

Kirby whistled at Pit "Ready to fight?" Pit got up in a hurry and got into his attack position. "I'm ready to do that and kick your pink, little… oh wait, you don't have one." Kirby sweat dropped. "I don't know whether to take that as a insult or a compliment."

Pit and Kirby then hopped over to the main platform and stared down each other. The muscles in Pit's legs began to be tense. Kirby narrowed his eyes, completely focused on the person on the other side. The face tree (what was his name?) sweat dropped from all the tension that was in the air. At first, there was silence…

Then two screams that could have gave you a headache erupted forth as Pit and Kirby ran towards each other so dramatically you could have make it rain and it would have the same effect. Pit separated his bow into two and slashed forth at Kirby. Kirby jumped up to dodge the attack, but turned into a spike ball and let gravity take him down. Pit noticed and barely got out of the way.

Kirby turned back, but was greeted by an arrow to the face. Kirby shielded himself against the arrows. Pit ran towards Kirby, engaging himself into a frontal assault. Kirby tried to defend himself with a wild storm of punches. Pit wasn't there to receive as he jumped up on a platform, ran to the end of the platform, jumped off, glided and flying towards Kirby to hit him from behind.

However, Whispy Woods chose that time to blow in Pit's direction, throwing the winged brown head off. Kirby dodged out of the way, only to punish Pit's blunder with a body spin attack. Pit landed into the blocks quite painfully, but not before Kirby dashed at Pit did a spinning handstand kick. Pit's body was punished further.

Pit got up and had a curry appear next to him. Hoping the curry would help, Pit took a bite of it only to for it to taste so spicy it made flames come out of his mouth. Pit panicked for a second, before looking at Kirby then at his fire-breathing tongue. Kirby took quite a beating, not counting the bomb block that went off.

Kirby fell down when a Maxim Tomato appeared on the left platform. Noticing it and the fact Pit was making his way towards him, Kirby waited until Pit was near, then kicked out Pit's feet from underneath him and ran to the item. Pit got up and gave chase. Jumping onto a platform, Pit jumped up and stabbed behind him at Kirby. He tried to obtain the tomato, when suddenly everything turned pink.

Pit tried to struggle his way out, when clear sunlight flooded his eyes. Pit got up and looked just in time to see Kirby gobble up the Maxim Tomato. Then Pit did a double take. Kirby was now wearing a golden wreath of olive leaves, like Pit. Pit studied this phenomenon for a while, and then decided that it wasn't the time to gawk.

Pit then shot out an arrow, which met another one. Pit gasped, as Kirby nocked another arrow identical to his own and fired it. Pit fired a reflex arrow to deflect it. And so it went, both at a standstill, firing arrows at one another, hoping the other would let up.

Kirby fired one last arrow, which Pit sidestepped only to regret it. Kirby appeared next to Pit and got out a sword. Kirby slashed upwards, taking Pit with him. Then Kirby slashed downwards and emitted a shockwave that pushed Pit back. Pit was further pushed as Kirby jumped in the air and transformed into a spiked ball. Pit landed next to a bomb block. Kirby shot an arrow and Pit flew out.

Pit shook his head to clear himself as he came down on the revival platform. Pit now knew Kirby could use his arrows, leaving Pit with half of a strategy. Pit then split his bow into two daggers. Pit knew Kirby already discarded the ability, but that wasn't the point. Pit knew he had to be more than relying mainly on his arrows. He had to use the other features of his bow, even if he wasn't that proficient.

Pit jumped down and slashed at Kirby downwards. Kirby was knocked right up. Pit slammed his two daggers into the ground and used them to kick upwards. Pit then jumped up, connected his daggers into a bow, and twirled upwards. Pit then spotted something and made his way to it.

Kirby got up and was looking around for a sigh of Pit. Kirby got confused and was thinking where the brown head went, right smack dab in the middle. As Pit was nearing Kirby, the pink puffball was still oblivious of Pit's location. Pit smirked as he put his fingers in his mouth, ready to blow. "Strange how people seldom tend to look up."

Kirby was looking around until he heard a whistle emanate from above. The puffball looked up to see Pit riding a Warp Star to crash upon Kirby. The muffin had barely time to gasp before being taken into the wild blue yonder.

Kirby jumped down at Pit and tried to attack by kicking from behind himself. Pit sidestepped it and tried to follow-through with an angel ring. Kirby simply turned into a thwomp and rode out the attack.

Kirby then transformed back and swung his hammer at Pit. It connected and Pit's body flipped over but Pit flipped over onto his feet. Kirby tried to attack with a Vulcan Jab. Pit split his bow into two and warded off the first stages of Kirby's attack, then rejoined his daggers to spin his bow around to ward off the rest.

Kirby tired first, leaving Pit to stab forward. Kirby flew back a little, leaving Pit room to close the gap with an angel ring. Kirby, however, blocked the attack. However, Kirby disengaged and ran. Pit tilted his head to comprehend what happened, when Kirby reappeared with a star rod.

Kirby charged the rod up and sent a star flying into Pit. The pink ball continued his abuse of the power against Pit, who had taken refuge next to the blocks, giving him cover. Kirby waited until Whispy Woods started blowing again. Then Kirby knocked off a block, went under the stage, and came out on the other side of Pit.

Pit began to wonder what was happening on the other side. His inquiry was answered as Kirby inhaled him. But instead of copying, Kirby jumped off the stage with Pit still inhaled.

As both floated down on a revival platform, Pit took the time to tell Kirby something "That was so cheap." Kirby shrugged.

As both touched down, Pit saw a group of feathers come down on the right side of the stage. Kirby saw this and ran over there. Pit, not knowing why, still followed Kirby to stop him. Kirby was the first one on the right side island and was about to pick up the piece when Pit jumped forward and slashed at Kirby. Kirby flew away but was able to get back.

Pit, though, had the piece, and that seemed to motivate Kirby to beat it out of his possession. Kirby first tried the Vulcan jab, but Pit blocked with his bubble shield. When Kirby stopped, Pit crouched and slashed at Kirby. Kirby jumped up and kicked at Pit.

Pit staggered a bit before Kirby's foot came from behind Kirby and made Pit fly a bit off the ground. Kirby jumped and kicked at him again. Pit fell on a platform, only to be hammered off.

Pit fell on top of a group of feathers. Looking at them, he decided they would come in handy later. Pit got up and jumped towards Kirby, attacking with an Angel Ring that connected. Kirby moved away and answered with a low kick that tripped Pit. The Pink Menace then followed up with a hammer.

Pit was knocked back, but was soon inhaled by Kirby. Kirby looked like he was going for the same thing, except now Pit was spat out. Kirby floated his way to safety.

The angel now tried to reach the edge, however, just before his hand could grab it, his wings lost strength. His body now falling, he gritted his teeth as he took it in. Finally, in a cry of desperation, Pit cried out "WINGS OF ICARUS!!!" Suddenly a blue light enshrouded Pit's wings. Pit now had the strength to fly.

Kirby stared over the edge, trying to see Pit. Suddenly Pit jumped onto the platform, kicking Kirby, and making him drop his piece. Pit jumped up and grabbed it, but not before noticing something and smirking.

Kirby got back up and stared at Pit. Pit waved before falling off. Kirby stared in the abyss, trying to pick out Pit. Suddenly, Kirby heard a great Whoosh, from the other side of the stage. Kirby knew what that meant and stood there, waiting for the inevitable.

Pit was locked on to Kirby, flying on the Dragoon he'd pieced together. Pit smiled "5 down, 7 more to go." He then rammed the Dragoon into Kirby, causing him to fly off. Pit saluted Kirby as he flew past. "Let's enjoy the ride on this thing for a bit longer…"
