SUPER SMASH BROS. Civil War

Chapter 31: Rerisen

The Smash Capitol

"This is it for me," the politician thought.

Ganondorf went for the kill as he slowly stepped closer to execute the man, but then a creature came to his rescue and prevented the warlock from attacking. The creature was the small, round, pink puffball of joy; Kirby.

"Stand aside!" said Ganondorf.

"Puyo, puyo!" Kirby puffed up his cheeks and blew out massive amounts of air. Ganondorf tried to withstand the current, pushing hard. Kirby pressed on more, keeping the injured politician safe. Link got up and struck Ganondorf from behind.

"Grr! You'll regret that," said Ganondorf after he felt the minor cut. Dark Pit, Pit, Falco, Ness, King Dedede, and Donkey Kong went inside the Capitol building, upon defeating all the mercenaries outside.

"Stand aside. I'm taking down this warlock," Dark Pit told everyone.

"What do you mean? Hey! You ain't bossin' me around," Falco argued.

"It's alright, Falco. Pitto can win this," said Pit.

"I told you to stop calling me that!" said a serious Dark Pit as he looked at Ganondorf.

"Heheheheheh another challenger, I see. You seem different from the rest. This could be your opportunity to work with me. What do you say?" Ganondorf attempted to strike up a deal with the evil angel.

"Don't do it, Pitto!" pleaded Pit.

"I would accept the offer if it means killing that annoying angel who calls me his clone. Thanks… but I'll pass," said Dark Pit. "Besides… I want to see if I can defeat you."

"Hehahaha! You're telling me that you would rather have your wings ripped off than join me? Well then, do not disappoint me," replied Ganondorf.

"Tch, bring it on," Dark Pit made a battle stance and brought out his dual bladed staff.

"Whenever you're ready," taunted Ganondorf.

Dark Pit disappeared, reappeared, and punched Ganondorf in the face, making him flinch.

The dark angel spun from the other side and kicked Ganondorf in the neck. He then tried to slice his neck, making him flinch again. Dark Pit flew back and kicked Ganondorf in the back, causing him to fall to the floor.

"You can get up now. You're not hurt. Not from an attack like that," said Dark Pit.

"Don't hold back on your next hit," Ganondorf warned.

Dark Pit was allowed a free shot and took it without holding back. With a mighty punch, he jabbed Ganondorf and caused him to almost fall over. Dark Pit spun around again and slammed Ganondorf across the room.

"Hmph, not bad. And I haven't even started yet," Ganondorf immediately recovered.

"What?! He's unphased from that. How could this be?" Dark Pit thought.

"What's wrong? Are you lacking in strength? You'll figure out soon enough that you can't win," said Ganondorf as he charged at a confused Dark Pit.

Dark Pit tried attacking with his bladed staff, but Ganondorf easily kept his guard. He unleashed his own blade and almost cut Dark Pit, who dodged quick enough. A battle between a warlock with a blade and an angel with a staff was sure to favor the angel, but Ganondorf was no warlock, but a devil.

"This is pointless. I'm losing my patience with you," told Ganondorf.

"So am I… you bastard!" said a frustrated Dark Pit. Dark Pit struck Ganondorf harder, but he didn't flinch this time. Ganondorf kept a blank face, making an insulting remark.

"I told you to not hold back," said Ganondorf as he grabbed the angel's fist and hand and knee cut Dark Pit in the gut.

Dark Pit spat out blood and was thrown to the ground. Ganondorf looked at him with disgust. The warlock was ready to end the dark angel when Link slashed Ganondorf from behind with Triforce Slash.

"Impressive attack, Link. I'm quite surprised that you would use dirty tricks to stop you. How blasphemous," scolded Ganondorf as struck a blow at Link. He turned his attention to the politician and Kirby.

"Now to get that little human. Out of the way, creature," said Ganondorf.

Kirby stood up to Ganondorf and unfolded his own sword.

"Hehehahaha!" Ganondorf laughed at Kirby's attempt to fight.

The rest of the Smashers secretly led the people to safety in the underground subway system. Meanwhile, Dark Pit recovered from the attack and went to aid the politician instead.

"Don't think for a second I'm doing this out of kindness, human. I can't stand to see the sight of idiots trying to act brave," Dark Pit told him.

"Heh, that makes two of us," the politician chuckled as he was escorted out by the crowd.

Kirby, the rest of the Smashers, and Ganondorf were still battling with Ganondorf not giving up. Then, with a short percent of his power, he created a dark barrier, pushing everyone away.

"You managed to distract me long enough for the people to get away. Of course, I wanted this," said Ganondorf.

"Come again?" asked Dark Pit in shock.

"Yes, I suppose it doesn't matter if they left or not. You can't escape the Collective. And neither can them. Our soldiers are everywhere in sight," explained Ganondorf.

"Darn it!" thought Pit.

"Yes, as I forgot to mention, I was not fighting to my fullest extent. You see, you failed to entertain me," Ganondorf spoke. "I have no interest in keeping you alive. The nanites will deal with you."

"What did you say?!" said Dark Pit before Ganondorf walked out. The warlock turned around and turned his attention to a weakened Link. He crouched below to talk to him.

"Oh, and Link? Don't think about trying to face me again," Ganondorf spoke to Link as he walked off.

Nanites began storming into the Capitol from the underground subway and fell upon the Smashers. Falco signaled for everyone to escape at once.

"Hey, this way. I'll tell Meta Knight to pick us up", Falco instructed as he called Meta Knight to bring the Halberd around to get them. They continued to run, but behind them were a lot of nanites.

The Halberd landed quickly and as the heroes were close to it, a large force of fighters and machines appeared along with a floating being. The robots themselves handled several giant explosive bombs. Ganondorf took it upon himself to investigate from a far distance as he noticed the other army, as well the bombs they were carrying.

"Heh. Interesting..." Ganondorf thought to himself.

"Wait. Who the hell are these guys?" asked Falco with caution.

"Strange. These monsters are different, but what's with those things they're carrying?" Dark Pit thought.

"We have to leave now!" Pit warned. Everyone dashed to the Halberd and flew off as high and far away as possible.

The Ancient Minister signaled for the bombs to be set off as he hovered away from the possible radius of the explosion. When the bombs reached zero, the robots operating them perished in the dust.

The Ancient Minister looked in despair.

The Halberd managed to escape the explosion unscathed. They witnessed a large ball of dark matter cover literally the entire Capitol. Meta Knight handled the ship and set a course to reach a high enough altitude to avoid a sudden aerial assault.

"What do we do now?! First, we're in the middle of a civil war. Now some new mooks wanna crash the party. Man, it's like the world is out to get us three times in a row," Falco slammed his feathered fists.

"We have to do whatever it takes to stop them all," said Ness.

"In that case, where do we go?" Donkey Kong scratched his head.

"We have to get to our other friends in that jungle from far away and Lady Palutena. I'll see what she's up to," said Pit as he contacted his patron goddess. Pit created a magic mirror-like image of where his goddess was.

"Lady Palutena, are you there? What's your situation?" Pit asked.

"We're surrounded by these monsters. We're inside this giant palace but there's just too many of them," explained Palutena.

"Tell your goddess that help is on the way," requested Dark Pit.

"Pitto, is that you? Oh, I just knew you wouldn't let us down. So now that makes you one of our new friends forever," said Palutena.

"Oh, would you shut up for once!" Dark Pit stated in annoyance.

"I'm still glad you're doing the right thing by helping out," smiled Palutena as Dark Pit growled in anger.

"We'll be there to save you, Lady Palutena," promised Pit.

"Of course. Please hurry," Palutena urged.

"Where is your location?" spoke out Meta Knight.

"Oh. Meta Knight! It's you! You look so adorable! Lucina always says that… Now where was I? Oh right! We're all the way across another continent in the jungle. When you guys see the giant palace, then you found us," said Palutena. With that, Meta Knight's Halberd set for the Jungle Ruins. As for the Smashers in the jungle, they held off for as long as possible and were virtually trapped inside the palace once they got in.

Ganondorf escaped the blast, realizing all the nanite mercenaries were decimated in the explosion. He bitterly went away as the opposing army watched on and did nothing. The Ancient Minister and the Subspace fighters left back to the Isle of the Ancients.

ooo

?

Ganondorf went back to the secret nanite base where everything was done. The monitors surrounding him turned on and focused on an image of Master Hand. Ganondorf bowed and gave in his report.

"Unfortunately, it seems that many of our units were destroyed by a powerful bombing. It was likely due to the other army we've been monitoring," said Ganondorf. "From what we confirmed, this other army somehow made a mysterious island rise to the sky," added Ganondorf.

Master Hand motioned a sense of understanding and pointed at Ganondorf, ordering the warlock to not fail again. Ganondorf kneeled and let out a short laugh.

ooo

Temple of the Ancient Destroyer

Isle of the Ancients

The Subspace Army and the Ancient Minister magically teleported back to the floating island. Another chant was spoken, this time with certain holy powers.

Nostrae ascensionis in caelum placet. Rogamus aperire veritatem, ita ut magis prosperum. Terram promissam benedictionem tuum da nobis.

The Subspace Army was able to become stronger by draining the immense energy of the Isle of the Ancients. The Ancient Minister proceeded inside the temple, revealing the epitome of the advanced power of the Subspace Emissary: the Subspace Bomb Factory. Up to hundreds of robots were in an assembly line and distributed dark matter energy bombs. The Ancient Minister watched on in glorified stares as the Subspace fighters went on with their work. One creature with horrifying abilities and a motionless tail looked on as it hovered by in a calm pace, with its cold darting eyes.

"Our revolution… is only the beginning!"
