Sorry to keep you waiting! The one year anniversary of one of my, well, longer stories had been approaching, so I wanted to focus on that. Now that it's out of the way, I can finally get back to writing some Smashing Banter!
Okay, reviews were mostly positive, and I'm grateful for that! Anyway, I'll be sure to try to keep up the good work, I guess. Anyway, it's not Dark Pit, it's not Meta Knight, and it's not Bowser/Jr. It's the Mii Fighter! They count as clones... right?
Enjoy!
Smashing Banter: Mii Fighter
"Alright, who's next?" Pit asked, hopping off of the spawn platform. Still on his victory euphoria, Pit was really feeling it. Twirling his twin blades, Pit tried to egg himself on even more, yelling, "Now whose ugly face will I be beating today- huh?"
"He kinda looks like you, only more… generic," Palutena commented, staring at Pit's adversary. He looked strangely like Pit down to the facial features, though this Pit was missing wings and a bow. Instead, he had devil horns and a steam punk gun. Then it all clicked in the Goddess's head. "Oh, this is a Mii Gunner!"
"A 'you' fighter? How does that work, Lady Palutena?" Pit replied, confused. Before his deity could reply, the Gunner charged the angel. Leaping, the gunslinger shot out a quick orb of energy from his firearm. Pit quickly raised up his Guardian Orbitars, sending the bullet right back at the Mii. The Gunner slid under that, swiftly getting up and grabbing the angel by the tunic as he retracted his shields.
"No, Pit: a Mii Gunner. It's a customizable fighter created so that anyone imaginable can join Smash Bros," Palutena corrected, as Pit was thrown up into the air. Before the angel could reorient himself, he was shot from below, knocking him up even higher. Thinking on his toes, Pit folded in his wings, dropping faster than the Mii Gunner could react to. Not losing his rhythm, Pit quickly dashed in and cut up the still-reloading gunner, sending him off the stage.
"But I'm already in Smash Bros!" Pit cried as he jumped after the Mii. Pit swung his blade below himself, aiming to spike the Mii into the abyss below. The gunner, sensing Pit's killing intent, gracefully dodged mid-air, grabbing the ledge before Pit could try to spike him again. "Hm… maybe they want a Pitthree?"
"Oh, I think Pittoo will be happy to hear that!" Palutena cheered, as the Mii Gunner took advantage of the situation. Charging his cannon, the Mii fired, hitting the still-offstage angel in the face, sending him farther away. There was no way that his jumps alone could save him at that point. Luckily, Pit had his Goddess to count on, as she granted him the Power of Flight. With his wings invigorated for a few moments, Pit mustered the strength to fly towards the stage, barely grabbing the ledge before the Mii could retaliate.
"I thought I told you to stop calling me Pittoo!" Dark Pit, appearing all of a sudden, complained as Pit rolled behind the Mii who was waiting for him to get back onto the stage. The angel quickly knocked the Mii off his feet with a swift swipe to the feet and chased, shredding his endurance away with Pit's spinning blades.
"And I thought I told you to stop crashing my party, and yet you're still here," Palutena retorted, crossing her arms.
The Mii Fighter quickly recovered, sending a rocket at Pit. Unluckily for him, it hit the angel right in the noggin, causing fire to spread all throughout his body. "Yowch, fire missiles! Hot hot hot hot hot!"
Taking advantage of Pit's stunned state, the Mii Gunner charged up his gun and fired, landing a barrage of bullets on the poor angel. Burnt to a crisp and full of holes, Pit was sent flying into the blast zone, giving the win to the Mii Gunner.
"Hah! Where's your goddess now?" Dark Pit snarkily remarked, snorting at his twin's demise.
"Right here, Pittoo," the Goddess of Light replied, smacking the more edgy of the two angels upside the head.
Ah, the chapter's as short as usual. I do hope that the "big things come in small packages" applies. Oh well, I'm off to go buy a Big Mac, 'cause the next chapter's gonna pack a punch. (Super duper hint hint). See you all next time~
~PS: In retrospect, I should have used "I hope you'll enjoy the next chapter with Mii!" as last chapter's hint.~
