SUPER SMASH BROS. Civil War

Chapter 5: Smash Capitol

Sakurai Bridge, Smash City

Wolf drove in his newly acquired motorcycle across the bridge, giving dirty looks and remarks to anyone passing by. He reached out his phone as he received a call from the rest of the Smasher fighters.

"We need you at the Tower. We're ready to move to our first mission," said Mario.

"Don't sweat. I'll be right over," he responded. Wolf accelerating past the busy streets to get to the Smash Tower.

ooo

Smash Tower Briefing, Smash Tower

"Alright! Since everyone's here, we're headed to the Smash Capitol. We have an important issue we need to take care of," said Mario.

"What kind of situation are we talking about here, boss?" Wolf asked.

"Before your arrival, a situation involving a cybernetic machine and a band of revenge-seeking soldiers delayed everything and caused a complete disaster. As a result, our team has been put into the line of political trouble," Mario made it brief.

"Political trouble? So we have to answer before a royal court?" Lucina pondered.

"More of a democratic way of rulership, not monarchy," Samus clarified.

"To put it bluntly, we're being summoned by the government for the damage that had been done two weeks before you guys arrived. Since 'we're' the ones responsible, they're considering a new law that requires us to register as federal agents," Captain Falcon confirmed.

"Disgusting. I'm definitely not agreeing to that," Wolf complained outright.

"Maybe they'll answer to the swing of my blade?" Ike desired a more confrontational option.

"That's exactly what we won't do. We can't afford to anger these people further," Marth chimed in.

"I'm sure we can reason with them," Samus sarcastically spoke.

Mario placed his gloved hand on his face and sighed. "Let's get to the capital. We'll be taking our private airplane."

They flew out of the city via the jet in their authorized hangar at the local airport and traveled upstate to the capital, unaware of the conflicts that awaited them.

ooo

Capitol Gardens, The Capitol

Armed helicopters dropped ropes down and released Koopa mercenaries carrying carbines and assault rifles. A series of explosions followed within the Capitol building. Finally, a dark blue robot flew by. The Smashers just arrived at the capital, just to find out that the capital was being attacked.

"Mario, it's mercenaries!" Captain Falcon announced.

"There's certainly an army of them," Lucina added.

"I don't know who's responsible for these attacks this time, but we need to get rid of them. They may have taken the officials as hostages," Mario replied.

"Smashers! Divide and conquer strategy. One team of four uses the underground subway to get into the building while the rest of us battle outside the gardens and entrance. After the team makes their way in, they break the entrance from the inside and we all secure the hostages to safety. Fox, Peach, Wolf, and Rosalina will go to the subway. Flank them from underground," Samus instructed as they nodded.

"Kind of bummed that I can't fight outside. Ah well," Wolf spoke.

"I'll… lead us in," said Fox as he rolled his eyes.

"Okay, everyone else, stop those mercenaries!" yelled Mario.

"What are the heroes doing here in the Capitol?!" shouted a Koopa soldier mercenary.

"Don't let them near the hostages!" said one.

"Put them down!" said another.

"About time I got some real fun!" Ike stated, swinging his two handed sword, knocking out ten of them at once.

"Falcon Kick!" Falcon slid across the pavement with a fiery kick, harming five units.

"Arcfire!" Robin produced fire magic, burning away at the enemies.

"These guys are crazy!" one mercenary backed away.

"Up in the sky!" a Koopa mercenary spoke out.

Shots of blue arrows were fired from a brown-haired angel with white wings; Pit. "I've got you covered, guys!" said Pit as he continued firing arrows.

"There you are, Pit! I knew you could make it!" Palutena shouted.

With aerial support, the Smashers advanced deeper into the garden. An armed helicopter flew by and dropped down more mercenaries. There were also traps such as landmines and mercenaries carrying rocket launchers.

"If we could just get past those rockets," Captain Falcon ducked for cover as he looked afar.

"Our best strategy is a hit-and-run. We move fast while avoiding those projectiles and strike when close to our enemies. We'll be able to reach that building much quicker," Marth devised a plan.

"I like the way you think, Mr. Prince," Samus said with interest to the swordsman.

"Good enough for me. Let's-a go!" Mario chanted.

ooo

Underground Station, The Capitol

The other four Smashers traveled through the subway under the Capitol to find an entrance inside the building.

"I know there's a path to get inside the Capitol," said Fox as he led.

"Your wits are as dull as your ears. I would've found the way in already," Wolf mocked him.

"Shut… up, okay. I'm leading us in," Fox was a little irritated.

"You can do this, Mr. Fuzzy!" said Peach. Fox blushed a little and nodded.

"Yes," he cheerfully replied.

"So, princess. How about that date?" Wolf asked Rosalina, still making advances on her.

"I told you to leave me alone, please," said Rosalina as she blushed a little and turned away from him.

"Give it rest, Wolf. It's obvious that she doesn't like you," Fox told him.

"Shut your trap!" growled Wolf as he and Fox angrily looked at each other.

Rosalina looked scared as she said, "Um, this is getting uncomfortable. Please stop quarreling."

"Fuzzy. Fluffy. You're scaring Rosie. Now stop!" said Peach in a serious tone.

"Did you just call me 'Fluffy'?!" said Wolf as he turned around. Peach and Wolf stared at one another. Peach stood up to Wolf with a serious look.

"...Fine. Let's keep going," Wolf snarled slowly.

The four Smashers continued on into the abandoned subway station and Wolf quickly smelled something alarming. "Hold on. I can smell… mines… and… smoke. We have to be cautious," using his nose, Wolf was able to detect incoming traps.

"So you're calling the shots now, Wolf. It's ironic really," smirked Fox.

"I'm a better leader than you, pup," said Wolf, which made Fox frown.

"Why are you two always fighting?" questioned Rosalina.

"Don't worry about it, princess. There's history behind it. Another time," the wolf replied.

The entire subway station began to rumble and shake. "What's happening?!" screamed Peach.

"The battle above is going beyond normal combat," explained Fox.

"Dammit, now I really want to be up there. I can hear explosions and helicopters crashing," said Wolf.

"Over there! Stop them!" yelled a Koopa mercenary from a far distance.

"Time to whack these wiseguys," said Wolf as he pulled out his automatic pistol. The Smashers quickly got past the mercenaries and found a straight path to the Capitol.

"Yes! We made it to the entrance. Stand back," said Fox as he set smart bombs to blow open the barricaded entrance. The four Smashers reached the Capitol building to find an empty large lobby in ruins. Then, explosions and shots were heard once more.

"Ah!" screamed Rosalina.

"Stay close to me for safety, princess," Wolf suggested with a smug look.

"No!… n-no, thank you. I'm suddenly not afraid anymore," she replied.

Fox set smart bombs on the main Capitol doors. The bombs destroyed the doors and allowed full access to the rest of the building.

ooo

The Capitol Building

All the Smashers were now inside the building. "Good work, everyone," Mario nodded.

Suddenly, an Arwing crashed into the side of the building and out jumped a blue-feathered bird pilot mercenary; Falco. "Took you long enough. This weird looking kid with wings and I have been trying to stop these mercs. It seems that Dark Samus is the mastermind behind this," Falco.

A huge explosion from above revealed the dark blue power suit mechanized counterpart of Samus; Dark Samus in the form.

"So! You Smashers have come to rescue the hostages. They are safe… for now. Do you have the courage to save them? Let us see," Dark Samus spoke while hovering.

Dozens of Koopa mercenaries dropped down with ropes. "Destroy those Smashers!" Dark Samus ordered.

The Smashers battled the waves of mercenaries but there were just too many of them. "I've just had enough of these damn mercs. I got a plan. Reflect this blast, Fox!" yelled Samus as she fired her arm cannon at Fox.

"Say what?!" said Fox as he turned around and rapidly reflected the blast with a reflector, which destroyed all the enemies in one go when blasting all around. "Why did you do that?!" said Fox.

"To get them off our backs," Samus waved it off.

ooo

Underground Parking Lot

The Smashers saw another door to the right and ran into a hallway leading to an underground parking lot. The Smashers pressed forward, dispatching any mercenaries in their direction. Once they reached the end of the parking lot, there was nothing left but ruined cars and abandoned vehicles.

"Where are the hostages? Did they evacuate?" said Captain Falcon.

"You idiots! You fell into my trap. There were never any hostages. Now we will crush you into the pavement!" said Dark Samus as he used his supersonic waves to knock down the heroes.

Dark Samus and the Koopa mercenaries engaged in fire and the Smashers fought back harder. "You think you've got what it takes to stop me?" Dark Samus boldly claimed.

Samus immediately took action by engaging Dark Samus. "You can't win against me. You will fail again," said Dark Samus.

"That's what you think, you pile of scraps!" said Samus as she placed a sticky explosive on Dark Samus's back. Dark Samus was weakened long enough to be attacked. Samus fired from her arm cannon again.

Dark Samus came right back up from impact and yelled, "Argh… Follow me heroes… if you dare!" as he flew above and out of the parking lot. The Smashers disabled the last of the mercenaries.

"You heard Dark Samus. Let's-a follow him!" Mario led.

"Stay out of my way! This is between me and Dark Samus only," Samus said with rage boiling inside of her. She was really steamed for some reason.

"We're all in this together, Aran. And I will lead us to stop Dark Samus," said Mario as Fox and Ike nodded in unison.

"I shall smite that armored fiend into molten iron," Ike dashed.

"I have a bad feeling about this," Captain Falcon shook his head.

"So do I," Marth agreed.

"When isn't there a bad feeling?" Samus got irritated.
