Chapter 25: Hosts can Boast.

After drawing up a blueprint of places to visit before the assault on the Shadows, they decided on who to collect first.

Rosalina: Alright, we have to get the other guys too, first: PT and Tabuu.

Rosalina and the others stopped by on a Lapras' back. They were friendly creatures, so they didn't mind. Bandana Dee then took out his little Kirby symbol cell phone, and called PT and Tabuu.

Bandana Dee: PT, we need you!

PT: Really, for what? We're preparing- oh wait we're not. We just decided to party instead of get ready for war here.

PT then yelled at the partying Yoshi in concern.

PT: Guys! The enemy is fast approaching! He'll take over this island and all your souls! Does that mean nothing to you!? Stop partying!

The Yoshis looked at him with a blank stare.

Yoshi: Yosh? (Guys, ignore that fool and party on!)

They then shrugged and continued to dance

PT: Sorry Bandana Dee, someone has to help these poor creatures fight back, even if they won't themselves.

PT hung up and began to call up his friend Oak to deliver him some Pokemon.

Tabuu: Let me guess, that was that little orange guy? We should of helped.

PT: I know, but we have important matters here.

Tabuu: Well let's send them someone at least...

Tabuu pulled out a trophy, and PT attached it to a Pidgeotto and sent it North.

Rosalina: This ain't good, two of the hosts are now unavailable, they aren't coming. Next stop-

A trophy flew over their heads, and plopped right into Vivi's arms.

Vivi: Tabuu must of sent him. What for, how do you activate it?

Just then, the trophy shined, and Roy was staring at them.

Roy: Roy is here! I'm your boy!

Eggplant Wizard: Huh huh! It's a guy with a sword!

Rosalina: Let's hop on the Lumas and head straight for Egad's!

The remaining contestants were trapped in the ground, their bodies stuck up, but their arms and feet were trapped. They also had washed out marker stains on their faces. Xant watched them with persistent eyes, but didn't utter a word.

Bowser: Ugh, what a stupid way to be trapped, right in the ground.

Ness was whispering to his little companion Geno.

Ness: Gey, cood u helip mii oul hre? (Hey, could you help me out here?)

Geno was too busy listening to some music to concern himself with Ness.

Geno: What? You chewing bubble gum?

Ness: Perese!

Geno: In English please.

Ness: Min!

A crane activated over their heads, and they stared as it swooned over their heads.

Xant: Lucky you guys, some of you get to meet with the master himself.

The crane dropped, and scooped up Luigi, Game and Watch, Meta Knight, and Bowser. Popple was operating the crane.

Popple: I'm operating the crane, see? Now they will all fail!

Fawful: Now we are left in ground like water canes! I am left with... Kid with Tomatoes, Furry, and Falcon Flamer!

Falcon: What, we ain't good enough, why!? Wait...am I the Falcon Flamer guy...can I trade?

Fawful: No tradebacks! That request will not be processed faster than a snail delivering mail!

Fox: My name has a ring to it! I am Kid with Tomatoes right?

Dimentio was in a room with Luigi, it was pure utter darkness, and screams filled the room.

Dimentio: Ah, the luscious color green, why was that your choice of color?

Luigi: I-I don't know, I like green.

Dimentio smacked him.

Dimentio: What's wrong with black! It shows darkness, if your a good person, why didn't your pick white, a holy color?

Luigi: Why are we talking about my colors, you brought me here for something!

Dimentio tapped him on the nose, and it shook a little.

Dimentio: No hurries my bulbous nosed friend, we've got time. Tell me, why do you play with your nose so much? Mario doesn't, don't you want to be decent like your older brother?

Luigi: You leave my a brother out of this!

Luigi attempted to punch Dimentio, but he teleported, and chuckled.

Dimentio: Temper temper... you have the qualities i'm looking for.

Luigi: Really?

Dimentio: Oh, so now you want to know things huh? You wouldn't answer my questions, so interrogations over!

Dimentio grabbed him and tossed him into the darker part of the darkness.

Roy: I'm your boy! Do you need anyone else?

Vivi: S-someone that can navigate. We don't even k-know where we're g-going!

Rosalina: That's why we're going to 's! Now let's sing a tune and keep our spirits up!

With their high speed Lumas and Rosalina singing the Super Mario Bros theme song...someone amazingly, they were sitting at the porch of his house already.

Rosalina: Lumas. What would we do without them?

They attempted to knock on the door, and the door fell and crushed Eggplant Wizard.

Eggplant Wizard: Oooh...cricky chaps!

Bandana Dee: Since when did you become British?

Eggplant Wizard: Now now, it seems sophisticated. Tally ho!

As they left Eggplant Wizard's crushed body at the door, they walked in, and the floorboards creaked noisily. waved down to them as he was cleaning the house with the Poltergust 3001.

E. Gadd: Yama! I'm cleaning this house like a duck with my new Poltergust 3001! With the FLUDD that I also have, this is a cinch! What brings you people here with an old coot like me?

Rosalina: You see, our fine players have been taken, and... it's not exactly good, we need a mascot for Nintendo after all.

E. Gadd: Then off I shall go with you whipper snappers!

E. Gadd slide down the railing, and as they walked out of the house, a vase fell on the floor, and the house fell to pieces. Everyone gasped, was content.

Roy: Dude! Your mansion is gone!

E. Gadd: Jajajaja! So you think!

The mansion came back to pieces moments later, and they saw that the Lumas were gone!

Rosalina: I think they know we're here!

Bandana Dee: Or... your Lumas are impatient.

Rosalina: My Lumas are perfect!

E. Gadd kicked the vacuum, and it expanded to a longer, bigger vacuum.

E. Gadd: We'll ride in style!

Eggplant Wizard: Yay!

Bandana Dee sighed.

Waddle Dee: You don't know what style is, I do.

They hopped on the vacuum, and they sped away. Travelling right across the water, they saw rather nice scenery on the way.

Roy: Whose next?

Bandana Dee: Only Stanley...I'm his biggest fan!

Meta Knight and Bowser were being dragged off separately into different rooms by King K Rool.

King K Rool: You two will be worked with separately.

Bowser: I'm a king like you, treat me with some respect!

King K Rool saw the next room in the corridor, and tossed him inside.

King K Rool: There you go, I gave you the bigger room to rot in, happy now?

Meta Knight: Don't make me bat slash you.

King K Rool: A new phrase? I'm the only one that makes new phrases around here! You get a more aggressive friend.

King K Rool kicked him into a rather dirty, but not as dark room. A man covered in shadows approached him.

?: Meta Knight.

Meta Knight: ... Galaxtic Knight?

Galaxtic Knight: So interesting to see you at the grasps of evil. They think i'm vicious or something, i'm just a guy looking for power.

Meta Knight: A worthy adversary.

Galaxtic Knight: Yes. indeed we are.

Meta Knight pointed to the door.

Meta Knight: Bust.

Meta Knight approached the door, which could be busted down easily due to decaying cracks in it, but Galaxtic Knight dashed in front of him, his speed was on par with Meta Knight's. Meta Knight often had troubles with him.

Meta Knight: Move. Let's bust out together.

Galaxtic Knight: I don't care where I go. I could walk out if I felt like it. I see you want to leave though... well fight for it, life isn't a cake walk.

Meta Knight: Duel? So be it.

Meta Knight charged at him, and the battle was on.

Bandana Dee: Hey, there's a giant dead bug on the shore... you think Stanley's in there?

They moved into the dead bug's mouth, and there he was, in the bug's stomach, except there was a TV, cable, and fully furnished. Stanley himself looked terrible. He had messy hair, dirty clothing, and looked somewhat pale.

Bandana Dee: Is that you Stanley? I've heard so much about your works!

Stanley: Quiet! I'm watching Snake's new TV programs: Nintendo Lovely Spices.

Stanley stared at the TV and gazed at the ladies on stage with Snake. He couldn't have looked happier.

Snake: Hey there! I'm here with these lovely ladies, as I decide: Who's the lucky one that will come home with me?

They were all giggling, and were in bikinis.

Mei Ling: Pick me Snake, I know you!

Pauline: No way sista, back off!

Misty: I called him!

Oyu: Sick amateurs...

Snake: Well, i'm going to pick... All of you!

They all ran to Snake as they cuddled near him, and he pulled out his transmitter.

Snake: Colonel, I got myself some lovely ladies, so send me a chopperrrr!

Vivi flicked off the TV, and Stanley groaned.

Stanley: Can't you leave me in peace!?

Eggplant Wizard: Chap, we need you on our journey, and will leave all misfortuned flashbacks behind us.

Stanley: What kind of journey?

Roy: We get to beat up bad guys, and save the rest of the contestants like Luigi, Bowser, Fawful... which I should of been with! It's not fair!

Stanley shook his head.

Stanley: I ain't saving that Fawful character! He's too random, and I can't stand it! I don't like any of them! Except Zero Suit Samus...she was fine.

Bandana Dee pointed up to the sky and a giant screaming blue balloon sailed over them.

Stanley: Dammit! It hasn't been that long as it? Time has just come to a stand still for me it seems...

Eggplant Wizard: But-

Stanley: Fine, fine fine! Since you guys need me so very much, i'm coming aboard! But seriously... an army of seven? That's not too good. Ryu! Ken! Get out here!

They busted out of their separate rooms, ready to fight. Bandana Dee patted Eggplant Wizard on the back.

Bandana Dee: Good argument, you got him with us now! Saying but really did it! My idol is with us now, here to spread a new wave of cruelty!

Eggplant Wizard: But-

Rosalina: Yay Eggplant!

She kissed his cheek, and he shrugged. He literally did nothing to contribute...so he just kind of accepted it. Stanley then pointed to Ryu and Ken.

Stanley: They pay the rent to have those room in this big ol fish.

Ryu: Ready to fight!

Ken: What he said!

Ryu: I have no real home!

Ken: What he sai- wait I have a wife and family! Why do I hang out with you again? You're a bad influence on me.

Rosalina: Us nine, a team to be reckoned with.

A yell was heard from the mouth of the fish, and Little Mac was delivering mail. It was part of his training regiment, without the aid of his bike. Which was stolen.

Little Mac: Package for Mr. Ryu... his new headband.

Stanley: You're coming too!

Little Mac: Wha-

He was dragged upon the Poltergust 3001 without warning, and they moved across the water.

Eggplant Wizard: my good man, do you know the specific coordinates to the villain's hideout?

E. Gadd: Yes yes yes, this Poltergust 3001 will take us their when I tell it to! Poltergust 3001, locate a funny looking jester hellbent to destroy the world.

E. Gadd laid back, and just about fell into the water. His glasses slipped into the water, revealing his very puny eyes.

Vivi: Hey, y-you don't have your glasses anymore.

Eggplant Wizard: Golly!

E. Gadd: Like I need them, they were just for show!

Little Mac: ...

E. Gadd: Hey, there's a giant orange in the water!

Ryu: Dude, that's a Goldeen.

Off they were, where would the Poltergust 3001 take them?

Bowser: Cakeletta, you took over my body you fool!

Cakletta: Eahehehe! I made it better than it ever was! You actually thought you were successful without me?

Bowser: Hell ya!

Cakletta: Join the dark side Bowser.

Bowser: I'm already with you guys, just let me take over the joint!

Cakletta: I don't think so. That's Dimentio's job.

Bowser: Forget that mutant, we can overrun him, and then I become ruler. Then we kill the other guys you brought here, it's genius!

Cakletta: Looks like I have to slash you until you join!

Cakletta slashed him across the face. Would he cave in?

Fawful: My limbs are cramped like horses!

Falcon: Agreed little dude.

Fox: No kidding.

Ness: Jilp! (Help!)

Xant: I gotta go somewhere, i'll leave you guys for now.

He exited the room, and with a huge muster of energy, the three got out, and headed towards the door. Ness walked out, and the guard now at the door greeted him as he passed.

Goomba: Wait a minute! That was a good guy, whyyyy!

The Goomba smashed his...feet together as Fawful, Fox, and Falcon attempted to escape.

Falcon: The great Falcon is being guarded by a mere Goomba?

In truth, all the other villains drew straws for guarding this cell and since Goombas don't have arms...he lost.

Goomba: Uh...is it I, Goomba! I am the ultimate evil!

Fawful: I've never heard of the likes of your puzzleness.

Goomba: You haven't heard of the greatest villain to exist?!

The Goomba tried to charge them, but Falcon socked him in the face.

Goomba: Why am I so pathetic. Ow! My face! That was my face!

He slammed his feet on the floor, then started talking to the wall.

Goomba: This is my wall, no one can take it from the great Goomba...you all need Goomba!

Fawful and Funky were already gone.

Goomba: Let's hope there is better security than me...

The Poltergust 3001 finally took them to a location, a giant swirling tornado in the water.

Roy: I think the vacuum's messed up.

Ryu: Shall we ditch?

Ken: What he said!

E. Gadd: No! Trust thy vacuum, we will go into that underwater litterbox.

Bandana Dee: That's an intense whirlpool! Save me Stanley!

Stanley: Quiet, what's wrong with you!?

E. Gadd sped the vacuum in, and they were all sprayed out of it, and launched into the forest. They saw the giant base shrouded in darkness. Various enemies travelled about.

E. Gadd: We are here! First, we need to water the bushes.

E. Gadd sprayed water all over Little Mac with FLUDD, which got him aggravated.

Eggplant Wizard: Limey! That's Little Mac, friend!

E. Gadd: Looks like a bush to me...

Stanley: We are here, now to find a way in...

Game and Watch: Beep!

Shadow Queen: Join us!

Game and Watch shrugged.

Shadow Queen: That's a yes?

Game and Watch shrugged.

Shadow Queen: Argh!

Shadow Queen created multiple mirrors.

Shadow Queen: Look into the mirrors, Watch.

He did a he was told, and a clone was made of him.

Shadow Queen: Perfect. First, I wanna get a look of myself in the mirror, my awe inspiring beauty.

She glanced at it and winked, all the mirror shattered.

Shadow Queen: Damn! Dimentio won't be happy about this...

The two Game and Watch's were playing battle turtles with each other. One of the Game and Watch's had a bow on their head. They were know as Mrs. Game and Watch.

Shadow Queen: A Mrs. Game and Watch? Looks like they can determine their own genders...

Stanley: Alright, I got a bug grenade, we toss it, and break in.

Bandana Alright, Vivi, cast the silence spell on it.

Vivi did that, and when the bug grenade blew, the explosion was unheard. They entered in silently.

Rosalina I guess most of us have spells to see through these doors. Teams!

Rosalina with E. Gadd

Vivi with Eggplant Wizard

Wadd De Deedle with Stanley

Ryu with Ken

Little Mac with Roy.

They all moved in their own directions, all to experience troubles.

Ness: Wee nee too fin thie otters! (We need to find the others!)

Geno: Yeah yeah, let a pro do this.

Ness: Mo!

Geno took his body, and scoured around.

Ness: Ah.. I'll be the baddy beater, I can do that!

Giovanni: Oh really?

He sent out a Ryperior, and Geno fended with PK Pulse.

Geno: Some competition?

Giovanni: Yes.

Giovanni sent a Nidoqueen, and then Wario?

Geno: What the-

Wario: I get good pay like this, and it's a free home too, it's not bad in these pokeballs, Giovanni said if I win this battle, I get to move up to a Great ball, which has more room!

Geno: You and your...acquaintance Waluigi both have troubles, I see.

Waluigi: Hack! I told you they'd never check the hole! It's mine again, Wahahaha!

Falco: Great... I'd rather be fighting.

Waluigi: I'd rather be tap dancing!

Falco: ... Do you have any bread?

Rosalina was guiding behind him, and telling him where to go.

Rosalina: In this room... nothing. In the next room... corpses, yuk!

E. Gadd: Three times a winner! We're at a baseball field, right?

Rosalina: No, we're in an evil hideout!

Rosalina opened the third door, and Capt. Syrup had a cutlass at her throat. She smirked cunningly, as if she devised an evil plan.

Capt. Syrup: Can't find your way around, princess?

Rosalina: Hmm!

Rosalina tossed her aside, and she continued moving along. Capt. Syrup tossed her cutlass at her that scarcely missed her.

E. Gadd: That person just tossed a sandwich at us, thanks!

Rosalina: I didn't want it to come to this...

Rosalina launched Star Bits by the dozen, and they ripped through the ceiling as the slammed Capt. Syrup to the wall and pounded her.

Rosalina: Attack !

E. Gadd whirled around, and yelped.

E. Gadd: It's that Capt. Syrup trying to ambush me, well try this on for size!

E. Gadd jammed the FLUDD into Rosalina's mouth, and the Star Bits stopped coming.

Rosalina: E. Gadd are you insane-

E. Gadd used the FLUDD to it's max potential, and Rosalina was bloating up with water , like Petey Pirahna does when he is filled by it. Rosalina was rounding out, and her once average figure, was not become from a bloated potbelly, to the size of a largely inflated soccer ball. Capt. Syrup pulled up a chair and watched.

Syrup: Silly old man, you and your blindness. That girl seems to have some water weight.

Rosalina: Hmmm! Mpph! *Hic* *hic*

Rosalina continued to expand as E. Gadd in a blur saw his supposed enemies now so filled up with water, that she was starting to squish everyone in the room. Syrup tried to retreat, but she was squished by Rosalina's giant water bloated body. When Rosalina was at a dangerous capacity of size that would squish them all, E. Gadd finally spoke.

E. Gadd: Had enough enemy?

Rosalina: Mppmph! (Yes! I'm not the enemy!)

E. Gadd: Then fly away!

E. Gadd yanked the FLUDD out of poor Rosalina's mouth, and she smashed into Syrup, and Syrup was knocked out.

E. Gadd: Which one's... the enemy?

Syrup: I am you blithering fool!

Rosalina blinked,and everyone was covered in water.

Rosalina: An odd team tactic... but it worked.

Syrup was captured, and they grabbed her and made her tell where the others are, before they tied here up, and locked her in. They saw Fawful and Falcon peeking around a corner.

Rosalina: Hey! Over here! Listen!

Falcon: Now, the team of five has formed!

Rosalina: There's four of us?

Falcon: Well I count as two people. Onwards!

Vivi: Hmm, the ground beneath us.

Vivi sent lighting to the ground, and spikes popped out of the ground.

Eggplant Wizard: Yowza, a bloody good discovery!

A mysterious force sent Eggplant Wizard wobbling, Jigglypuff sneered at Vivi.

Jigglypuff: Jiggly!

Vivi: You don't know who your m-messin with.

Vivi lit her on fire, and she performed a Rollout that smashed him into a wall. Eggplant Wizard tossed explosive eggplants at her, to with she sidestepped and slapped him silly.

Vivi: This battle...isn't over!

Vivi summoned meteors to slam onto her, and they tore up the base. When the dust cleared, she looked at them innocently, climbing from out of the rubble. The sprout must have blasted off in the impact of the attack! Blinking, she simply went off and floated away once more.

Vivi: Y-You're welcome Jigglypuff...

Eggplant Wizard: Yanka, we won against thy enemy!

Vivi: ... Stop being British.

Luigi: Get.. out, of my a head!

Dimentio: Aww, is he in pain? Poor thing!

Luigi: I will not become Mr.L!

Dimentio: Oh, why didn't you say so!

Dimentio stopped, and the skulls entering Luigi's mind ceased. Dimentio pulled out a little pack of cards, and played Solitare.

Dimentio: Tell me when you want to continue.

Luigi: ...

Meta Knight: You are at my feet now, Galactic

Galactic was defeated, after many punches, slashes, and slams again the now unrecognizable room.

Galactic: I see I had failed, again. Go, you deserve it.

Galactic walked away, and Meta Knight picked himself up, and saw Ryu and Ken. He prepared to chuck his sword at them, but Ryu stopped him.

Ryu: Your that little blue guy with the mask we're looking for. We need to find the others!

Meta Knight: Careful.

So the three paired up, and moved down the halls, and saw Bowser wrestling with Cakletta. Bowser was spewing flames on her, and Cakletta was releasing lighting on him. They moved to the scene, and Cakletta realized she was outnumbered.

Cakletta: Eurgh! Pests!

Ken kicked her in the gut, and Ryu used Hadouken to sen her out of the building.

Ken: The group, grows bigga!

Roy and Little Mac were already fending off trouble, for Primids were swarming them, and smashing them into the ground.

Roy: You stupid Mites!

Roy charged his blade to full blast, and nailed the whole group of them, then they knew it wasn't over, for a pack of Dry Bones skidded in in their mini and Eggplant Wizard saw this, and while they tried to attack them, Eggplant Wizard thought of another idea, and tossed explosive eggplants at the roof until it collapsed on them, and they were all dust.

Roy: Dude, are you smarter when your British?

Eggplant Wizard: Maybe chaps, maybe-

Bandana Dee waddled in, and his spear hit smacked Eggplant Wizard in the head, and he was no longer British.

Eggplant Wizard: Durka? Was I at mother's?

Bandana Dee: Stanley...fighting someone one on one, he ditched me. He can't handle it's power!

Stanley: *Gasp* tough one huh?

Goomba: You can't handle this!

Goomba kicked mud in his eyes, and yelled and stumbled over.

Goomba: Yeah, now I must finish you with a take down!

Goomba charged his attack, and Stanley braced himself, but a fierce little Mac moved in, and stepped on him. That was the end of Goomba.

Meta Knight: Game and Watch. Luigi...who else...

Ness had beaten the other two Pokemon, and Wario was still battling.

Giovanni: You blubber body, use bite!

Wario chewed on Ness, then used rest.

Giovanni: You're aggressive, don't use rest!

Wario quickly experienced a PK fire from Ness, and then he used Amnesia. Giovanni knew he couldn't control Wario.

Giovanni: Use the fart attack!

Wario groaned, but used splash instead. Ness finished him off with a charged bat attack, and Wario fainted. Giovanni brought him back in the Poke ball, and tossed him out the window. He looked, and saw that he stole his Master ball from him.

Giovanni: I'll get him! For now, I flee!

The group with Rosalina as the leader found Ness, and Geno lost possession.

Geno: See Ness? That's the training you need. Clean, strong, assertiveness!

Fawful: Wario was in a pokeball? Gravy!

They heard two bells ring behind them, and Mr. and Mrs Game and Watch waved. They escaped with their 2D powers. They needed Luigi and Bowser now.

Fox: I got a plan! I picked up this sprout that someone left behind. We can grab Luigi with it!

Fox planted the sprout on his own head and walked up to Dimentio in the middle of his interrogating with Luigi.

Fox: I need Luigi for...daily...

Dimentio: Don't bother, I need a break. Just keep watch.

Fox: Will do sir!

Dimentio left the room and Fox unfastened his straps.

Luigi: You sly Fox!

Fox: Hail Dimentio!

Luigi: What?

Falcon quickly ripped the sprout from his head.

Fox: Whew, thanks buddy!

The other two groups met up, and saw Luigi with them.

E. Gadd: Onto the Poltergust 3001!

It stretched out once again, and they were avoiding the rubble as the evil villains laughed at them. They were making it through the door, they saw Stanley holding up the collapsing doorway. Bowser also caught up with them and snarled.

Luigi: Hey Bowser...how's a life?

Bowser: Shut up and move over string bean!

Stanley cleared his throat and cough.

Stanley: Ahem! Go! I have nothing to live for!

Ryu and Ken: The bug house!

Stanley: Forget it, move!

With on huge push from his bug spray can, they were sent forward with no time to save Stanley.

Stanley: Yes, now I die with epicness!

Suddenly, the rubble subsided and the building was still.

Stanley: ...really? W-Wait up!

Stanley hopped in the water and swam after them. They all were back on the island, and the first thing Geno did was possess Ness, and toss Waluigi out of his hole, along with Falco.

Bandana Dee: Tiring, huh?

Little Mac: Yep, I want some tea!

Just then, they looked behind them and saw some tea with a note:

Dear warriors (except Eggplant Wizard)

I heard of your rescue mission, and good job! Me and Mario left some tea for you, as we now accepted that the cake is a lie. We now make tea and muffins.

-Peach

Ryu: Well...

E. Gadd: I need glasses.

Bandana Dee had some large glass shards in his hands, and they laughed. E. Gadd took them, plunged a crobar between the two pieces, and placed them on his head. He could see again!

Rosalina: I know you guys must be tired, worn out, sore, all that stuff...

Falcon: I'm not! Let's do it again!

Falcon hopped in the water and began to swim away.

Rosalina: I was going to see despite all that, we still need to have a challenge...so this one will be short and simple! Just a race around the island.

Fox: Isn't the island a little too rugged right now to have a race?

Bandana Dee: Nah, just be smart where you run!

Rosalina then lined up the All Stars, and held her wand as a flag.

Rosalina: Ready...go!

The race was on. Everyone bolted off but Bowser pounced on Luigi as he squealed in pain.

Luigi: Mama mia! Get off me a Bowser!

Bowser: Tough luck! I know I'm already going to lose this one so you ain't either!

Luigi sighed and grunted, only to a see a falcon shaped blur pass his eyes as Falcon was at the finish line hollering in victory.

Bandana Dee: W-What?! I thought you swam back to the evil hideout!

Falcon: I did! I just came back after to finish the race!

Falcon held up some rubble as a souvenir. Bandana Dee rolled his eyes and pulled out his megaphone.

Bandana Dee: Race is over, Falcon won...again.

Everyone groan as they came back scratched up and tired.

Fox: I was so close too. Why Falcon!

Meta Knight: Falcon fail.

Fox: Where did that come from?

Meta Knight scratched his barely visible pen goatee from Jigglypuff with his hand.

Meta Knight: Too much time with Falcon.

Falcon: Hey, it's catching on! It'll be on T-Shirt, hats, F-Zero cars, the works!

Rosalina: Falcon wins again!

Bandana Dee: What a shocker!

Eggplant Wizard: Sarcasm!

Bandana Dee stared at him.

Bandana Dee: Yeah, think they caught the drift.

Rosalina handed Falcon the Mario Bros statue and kissed his cheek once again.

Rosalina: Any ways, I'll catch up with you sweeties soon. Have fun deciding on the next person to be voted out!

Rosalina boarded the Lumas along with Bandana Dee, Vivi, and Eggplant Wizard and flew away. No one moved a muscle as everyone was beat and laid in the sand. The rain came about and pelted their faces, which felt relieving. Luigi was then a first to speak.

Luigi: Guys, there's only 7 of us left, let's just speak out in the open for this one. I am not a gonna run and plot.

Fox nodded his head, then held up a finger.

Fox: One second, uh, washroom!

Fox dashed into the forest hastily. Once in the thick of the forest, he pulled out a radio and called Falco, looking for some tactical advice. Falco did have a widen horizon of knowledge of the game, despite being voted out second. Falco came spiraling down in his Arwing and smoked a cigar. Fox blurted his name aloud in excitement.

Fox: Falco!

Falco facepalmed. No one really heard the noise but Game and Watch perked up his head. He got up, beeped a few times, and scuttled towards the forest. No one really cared about him, but they were a bit weary of Fox.

Falco: 'Ey Fox, looking for advice?

Fox: Yeah! They're going to have- wait when did you smoke cigars?

Falco: Since I started talking to you now. I have to speak with you after all...

Fox: Good one Falco! Any ways, we are having an on the spot vote about who to vote out tonight. You know our camp member, help me decide partner ol buddy ol pal?

Falco: Yeesh. Falcon would be my first option. Wait, you aren't out there with them right now? They could catch on to you!

Fox: He has immunity though...again. I told them I was on a bathroom break, it's all good. I'm sure no one is tailing me.

Falco chucked a bit, and puffed his cigar again.

Falco: No surprise there. Ever since that rat Daroach left the game, no one has been as threatening as Falcon. Only challenges that is. Although you might want to watch for the players hiding under the radar. You know, Meta Knight and Game and Watch.

Fox snorted at the mention of Game and Watch.

Fox: Game and Watch? He's probably the most ineffective player to ever be placed in the game!

Falco tsked him and waved his wing at him.

Falco: Don't take him so lightly 'ey Foxy boy? Well, physically he's probably 2 pounds but everyone in this game still got there because they had some element to keep them in.

Fox: An element you didn't have, am I right Falco?

Fox playfully nudged him on the shoulder and Falco narrowed his eyes, before dropping his still lit cigar on the ground and hopping in his Arwing.

Fox: Wait, wait! I was kidding! Who should I vote?

Falco revved up his engine and lifted into the sky before shouting at him

Falco: Vote Bowser and think for yourself!

Falco sped off and away, he really thought that Meta Knight or Game and Watch were the ideal nominees. But he was angered by Fox's comment so he just gave him a random name.

Fox: Game and Watch...ha. That Falco. What a knee slapper. Clearly he's a coat tail! But Meta Knight...he's a bit shady. He did help me with Daroach though. Yeah, I'll go with Bowser like Falco said. Perfect!

Fox grinned and sprinted out of the forest. Little did Fox know, Game and Watch was hiding behind the thick oak tree behind him the entire time in a sideways position.

Fox: I'm back! Sorry guys, let's do this.

Game and Watch also scuttled back, beeping happily as ever.

Luigi: Alright, my first vote is for Bowser!

Bowser puffed on his back and pointed at Luigi. It was 1-1 Bowser Luigi. They then heard the Lumas come crashing back and Rosalina came waddling back.

Rosalina: Since you are all agreeing to do it right now, let's here it!

Rosalina began to record the votes in her DS, a portable REJECTION ROOM.

Fawful: My vote goes to Luigi faster than a cantalope running a marathon!

2-1 Luigi Bowser.

Ness: Boozer! Hehs meen! (Bowser! He's mean!)

2-2 Luigi Bowser. Fox nudged Game and Watch who was laying next to him, whispering in his ear.

Fox: Hey buddy, would you mind voting Bowser?

Game and Watch raised his hand next. He then shrugged and pointed to Fox.

Fox: H-Hey! Why me!? I said Bowser! Uh-

Meta Knight analysed the situation and said his answer.

Meta Knight: Fox.

Meta Knight pondered to himself in his head: Who poses the greatest threat to me besides Falcon tonight?

2-2-2 Luigi, Fox, Bowser. It was all up to Falcon now.

Falcon: Holding the power to choose who leaves today! Falcon fantastic! I will pick with the utmost strategy, tactical and cool! Ok guys! Pick a number between one and infinity!

Luigi, Bowser, and Fox lowered their eyes.

Luigi: Really? W-Whatever you say!

Fox: What? Ok, sure. I consider myself lucky.

Bowser: What the hell's wrong with you, ya roid raging freak!

Falcon: My original idea to decide was for you guys to have a contest to see who could travel the world in 80 days...but you guys can't handle that. Chop chop! And do it with style!

Luigi stammered a bit.

Luigi: Uh...uh...22?

Falcon: Really? 22? What a weak and pathetic number!

Luigi: Tell me about it!

Luigi then broke down crying.

Bowser: Bwahahaha! That's great! I'm picking the highest number I can think of! ...50.

Fox: Me? I'll go with 1. Cause it's the number 1 number out there! Am I right Falcon buddy? Partner? Friend?

Falcon: No. You're out. It was infinity.

Fox: W-What?! No! I can't be ousted based on a simple number!

Rosalina: I'm afraid so Fox! 18th person voted out of Survivor of the Smash: Nintendo...Fox.

Fox: Just like that eh? Well, I had fun playing this game, best of luck to you all!

Fox pulled out his radio again and made a call to Falco to pick him up. Falco didn't come.

Fox: Uh...

Instead, Slippy came in his Arwing and came to pick up Fox.

Slippy: Reporting for duty sir! The worst pilot in the Corneria fleet here at your service!

Fox: Isn't Peppy available? Or Krystal...

Fox seemed spaced out for a moment.

Peppy: Fox? Fox? Fooooooox!

Fox: Oh, yeah. Full speed ahead Slippy! I get to see Krystal again!

Fox hopped in the Arwing next to Slippy as they began to take flight.

Fox: There's no break in this Arwing?!

Slippy: I knew I forgot something!

They then began to sail into the cloud, with Fox hanging on for his life as Slippy narrowly avoided every obstacle that came by...before hitting Falco's Arwing on the trip back and plummeting out of the skies.

Rosalina: The numbers dwindle down, the game intensifies, and hopefully we don't get disturbed like that again!

Rosalina once again floated into the sky. Everyone yawned and promptly fell asleep in the sand. Game and Watch stretched and saluted the skies in honor of Fox's elimination. Meta Knight game a satisfied smile from under his mask, although you'd never be able to see it. What no one else noticed at that moment was Dimentio hovering around them, smirking.

Dimentio: I'll let Luigi do the rest. Now, off to Yoshi's Island. I'll let these puppets dance their own show, for now!

Just what is Game and Watch truly capable of? What is going on inside of Luigi? Tune in next time folks!
