Chapter 22: Opening Ceremony

3:00 P.M.

Yet the Smashers were late for the opening ceremony of the Mario and Sonic War. Lot's of people gather in the stadium with cameras, food and drinks and smiles everywhere. Miku and Makato were ready as well. They were wearing black and white outfits, including their accessories. Makato had her hair down with a big black and white bow tied behind her head. Miku had the same hair style but with black and white buns on her head. The performance was about to start.

"Here we go~" Miku cheered.

"I can't believe we learn this dance within 2 hours." Makato said. "So do you need your headphones?"

"No. Not for this song. The dance for this song is really fun. I hope you enjoy this."

"I will." Makato smiled.

"Ladies and Gentlemen. Welcome to the Mario and War festival! Before we start we shall have a performance by Miku Hatsune and Princess Makato!" Master Hand announced. The crowd went wild.

"What? Makato is singing?" Miru questioned eating popcorn while sitting right next to Ike.

"I didn't know." Ike said.

"Well I did." Roy said.

"Be quiet they are going to start." Marth said. The audience settle down as the curtains open revealing two girls. Everyone started cheering. The a big screen above the stage came shows the translation. The song started out with a electric guitar and rock drums. Miku raised her arm by the side of her face. After that she let it down, doing the same thing with her other arm. Makato raised was facing the other way from the audience bringing her right arm up. She did two twirls and faced the audience. Miku and Makato towards each other facing the audience:

Cross the borderline of black and white and

Climb the starway up and up we go.

Nothing good to do. Just bored to death hey

Can I take your hand and steal you away?

Step and strumble do you want to go on?

Don't you worry, the altar is our floor.

Toss and turn and dizzy up ourselves and

Keep on dancing, you and me right here now.

Shall we dance? - So what?

Shall we dance? - No thank you!

Shall we dance? - Enough!

Shall we dance? - No more please!

Shall we dance? - Don't need it!

Shall we dance? - Go away!

Shall we dance?

Bury the room with all the shrill calls, voices

Swirl the senses, down and down we go. (Oh!)

Nothing good to do, just bored to death, hey.

Why don't we make a clean breast of it now?

Meaning connected to these simple words.

Reason of hating without seeing them.

Finding it... finding it... no meaning, no reason.

Gnash my teeth while smiling shy.

Smile with eyes shut and everything black.

I don't want to myself with all that nonsense!

Hopin' Stepin' may I have this dance

This is the world's end, shall we do the "one, two"?

Dring in all if this apocalyptism.

How about a little taste of daze and

Tick and Tack, the moment's moving on.

Shoot now, "say cheese!", our time is running out.

Round and round and going round and round.

Intoxicate, the world is getting (high).

A spatial just for you bystanders, jump

In the terminal, let's start the race.

Nothing good to do. Just bored to death, hey.

Can I take your hand and steal you away?

Something seems to be unusual and wrong.

Shall we believe in what is called "our fate"?

Step and stumble, do you want to go on?

No, no, how about making fool of ourselves?

Meaning of repeating all these foolish moves.

Reason to step as the music grooves.

Finding it... finding it... no meaning, no reason.

Just want to dance when I need a little blue.

Just want to laugh when I need a little tear.

I don't want to hear anymore of that ego!

Pop'n sense'n may I have this song

Before the world's end, shall we sing the un deux?

My heart, it's yours. Can you hear the beat?

No, no. Not yet. I won't forget how.

Oh my, look and see, what a lovely view!

There, there, the world's a monochrome highway.

Growl and creep, not a single piece will move.

Anyhow, it's dead. Nothing's going to change.

Hopin' Stepin' may I have this dance

This is the world's end. Shall we do the "one, two"?

Dring in all if this apocalyptism.

How about a little taste of daze and

Tick and Tack, the moment's moving on.

Shoot now, "say cheese!", our time is running out.

Farewell, so long have a nice day.

Goodbye, to this World's End (Dancehall).

The performance ended with fireworks and sparkles shooting from the sky. The crowd roared with amusement. Miku and Makato bowed and left the stage.

"That was amazing!" Peach cheered clapping her hands.

"I agree." Zelda said.

"It was cool." Samus said clapping.

"That was awesome!" Miru cheered.

"Those outfits were super cute." Roy complemented.

"What a great performance." Marth said clapping.

"Mhm." Ike said.

The crowd kept on roaring. Master Hand had to settle everyone down.

"Ok. What a great performance that was! Anyways. We shall start the opening ceremony!"

The crowd's roars hurt Master Hand's ears. At least it thought it did. The red and blue platforms rises above from the stadium revealing the competitors.

"On the right side, we have Team Mario!" The crowd cheered including the Mario crew. Baby Daisy started cheering, including Baby Peach. Team Mario waved. Daisy was waving too. She spotted Marth clapping at Team Mario.

No way! He's cheering for me!

"On the left we have Team Sonic!" The crowds roar were even louder then Team Mario. Mario sweat dropped. Team Sonic waved. The Sonic crew started cheering.

"Now! That we have relieved our competitors, it's time for the handshake thing and then we shall start!"

Mario and Sonic walked up towards each other. They both nodded and shook hands. The crowd started to roar with applauses and cheering.

"Let the games begin!" Fireworks started to explode and ribbons started to burst out from the stadium. It was a colorful opening ceremony.

Changing Room. Man Built, 100 feet from Stadium.

"I got to hurry." Makato said changing back into her brown and white dress. Miku was hopping on her pogo stick.

"I will see you later. I'm going ahead." Miku said hopping away.

"Ok. Bye bye." Makato said waving her arm high inside the changing room. 10 minutes later after putting on her flats, she opened the changing room. Suddenly a certain someone appeared before her eyes. Leaning against a wall in the changing room. Makato widen her eyes then relaxed them. She knows that he won't hurt her at anyway. He greeted her with a warm smile.

"Good afternoon Princess." He greeted bowing.

". . .Good afternoon to you."

He was wearing one gray shiny iron shoulder pad with a black iron chestplate, he had a black shirt under his armor with long black brown boots with dark gray pants. He had a black cape on. He also had a black iron sword with black smoke fogging around it.

"Let us go to a different place where we can talk." He offered his right hand to Makato. She nodded and to a hold of it gently while he grasped her hand.

He dragged Makato out of the changing room and they went elsewhere.

Naruto, Miku, Rosalina, and Crazy Hand were sitting in special reserved seats. Naruto was slurping down on ramen while Miku was looking around with a worried face.

"What's wrong Miku?" Rosalina asked. Miku sighed.

"I can't find Marth-kun anywhere."

"Um. . .he's sitting at the SSBB section. You can't go there by the way. And also, this stadium is huge so you should realize you can't really find what you want here."

"Awwww! Oh yea! That's right!"

"What is?"

"I told those guys to do me a favor."

"What is it? Oh yea."

"Mhm. To bring Marth to me, but I don't think it is working."

"OK! Let's start the Mario and Sonic War! We will tell the rules base on the event that will be taken place. The person in each team is chosen randomly. Each time someone wins that event, their teams gets a point. The team that gets the most points in the Mario and Sonic War gets a really great prize! So first up, have a one on one tournament battle!"

A floating Final Destination Stage appears from the sky. It also showed on the big screen. The crowded loved it. Team Mario and Team Sonic were on the Final Destination Stage.

"From Team Mario, we have Yoshi and Peach." Peach and Yoshi both took a couple steps forward.

"From Team Sonic we have Silver and Tails." They both step forward as well.

"This is a team battle survival match! You must blast your opponent of the stage. There will be items and a Smash Ball. A Smash Ball is where you do your final attack. The most powerful attack of all! Now let's get started! The time to fight is 10 minutes." The rest of Team Mario and Sonic were down in their seats.

"Let's do this!" Tails said.

"We are not going easy on them Yoshi." Peach.

"OK! Let's start!" Silver cheered.

The screen showed a countdown. 3! 2! 1! Go! Time started to tick as both teams charged.

"I get Yoshi, and you get Peach got it?" Silver said.

"Yea! Let's do this!" Tails cheered running towards Peach. Tails was flying on his tails as he charged for Peach. Peach pulled out a frying pan and smacked Tails across the face, almost sending him flying off the stage. Near the edge. Tails struggled to get up. Peach's eyes were glowing red.

"I can't lose!" Tails said getting up. Silver was using his physics lifting up Yoshi and spinning him around and around and around. Everyone had his eyes on him.

"Yoshi!" Yoshi panicked. Silver then threw him out of the stage. Yoshi was sent flying out of stage landing on the ground after. Most people were cheering. The Mario crew panicked.

"Yoshi!" Peach exclaimed. "I need to get rid of Tails first."

"I like to see you try." Tails grabbed Peach by the top of her dress so he can drop her off the stage. Peach wacks Tails with her umbrella making him fall down. Peach floats down with her umbrella, dusting her dress. Silver caught up with Tails.

"Leave this lady to me Tails. I will you my-"

"No thanks Silver. I can take care of her. You can back me up."

"Since when I was your side kick?"

"I never said anything like that."

"You are thinking about it, and you know it!"

"No I am not."

Suddenly it started to rain flower petals and a melody started to play. It was a sweet and beautiful sound as Peach dances to it. Tails and Silver started to feel sleepy. This was Peach's Final Smash. She happened to steal the Smash Ball while Tails and Silver argue. Tails and Silver dropped dead, sleeping like little babies. Peach got her driver and gave them a home run out of the stage. Confetti started to come from above.

"The winner is! Yoshi and Peach!" Master Hand said. The Mario crew cheered loudly. The Sonic Team was disappointed.

A/N: Ok! Ima stop here and continued the rest of the tournament in the future. TIll next time! Sorry it took long. R&R. What people said now..
