Super Smash Bros Adventures chapter 16
Mario and Robin are fighting at the stage, Kongo Falls. Robin jumps onto the highest platform on the left side and charges up his Thunder Tome for his Arc Thunder Spell. Mario jumps up and attacks with a Back Flip Kick. Robin dodges with a sidestep and lands a strong blow with his Levin Sword, sending Mario flying to the other top platform. Mario charges up his F.L.U.D.D and throws some of his Fireballs. Robin jumps over the projectiles and shoots out his Arc Thunder Spell. Mario uses his Super Leaf Cape to reflect it back and pushes Robin off with his F.L.U.D.D. Robin recovers using his El Wind, but Mario uses his Super Leaf Cape to turn him around. Luckily, Robin landed inside a Barrel Cannon, launches himself back up to the stage, and charges up for another Thunder Spell, Thoron. Mario runs in and attacks with an Air Punch. Robin dodge rolls away and attacks with his Bronze Sword combo. Mario dodges the attack by rolling behind him and landed a strong Smash Punch, sending Robin offstage. Robin completes charging up his Thoron and recovers back on stage with his El Wind. Mario jumps in the air and throws Fireballs. Robin smirks and fires off his Thoron, hitting Mario and sending him flying to the upper corner of the blast zone. Mario barely survives and returns back on the top platform of the stage. Robin ran out of his Thunder Spells for a short time and prepares his Arc Fire Spell. Mario jumps down and throws a lot of Fireballs. Robin casts a Arc Fire Spell and takes out his Levin Sword. Mario dodges the Arc Fire with an air dodge and Robin attacks with his Levin Sword. Mario dodges again with a side step, grabs Robin, throws him downwards, follows it with some Uppercuts, and ending his combo with a Mario Tornado Air attack, sending Robin flying close to the blast zone above. Robin barely survived, but Mario lands a strong Super Jump Punch, sending him flying into the blast zone and winning the match.
Mario and Robin returns back to the Smash Mansion and shake hands.
"That was a nice strategy you did to defeat me. I didn't expect you to do such a risky move." Robin compliments.
"Thanks! I made sure that I do the unexpected to beat my opponent. If I missed, then you would have a chance to win." Mario says.
"Next time I'll have to prepare myself for the unexpected. Now then, let's see what we can do for our mission." Robin says.
Mario and Robin head to the Mission Board to do a mission together.
"Find anything you like?" Mario asks.
"Hmm… I want to do a mission for my World. I also want to bring Prince Marth since I want to introduce him to a special someone." Robin replies, looking around.
Mario and Robin look around, until Robin found one mission that's from his world.
"Found something?" Mario asks.
"Yeah, this mission is helping out a Merchant I know from my world." Robin replies.
"Wow! Is she successful?" Mario asks.
"Yeah… I always get tricked into buying things, even though I don't really need it. If she's trying to sell you something, make sure you say no." Robin warns.
"Don't worry, I will. I also learned my lesson from buying gear from merchants. I'll go find Marth." Mario says
…
Mario, Robin, and Marth arrived at the Robin's world, Ylisse. The people look around and look at them, and notice that Robin is back home.
"Hey, everyone, Robin is back!"
The people gather around him and talk about how he is and how the tournament is going on.
"Wow, Robin is really famous here." Mario says.
"He must be really respected since he helped a lot during the war to bring peace here." Marth.
Suddenly, some people look at Marth and turn really surprised that the Hero King from another timeline is here.
"No way, it's the Hero King!"
Then a lot of people surround Marth and leaves Mario out.
"Are you really Prince Marth, Prince of Altea?"
"He's also the founder of Ylisse!"
"How are you still alive?"
"Now now, one at a time please." Marth says pleasingly.
"What a good way to put me aside." As Mario is about to get up, a woman with red hair offers her hand.
"Are you ok?"
Mario smiles and accepts her help. "Yeah, thanks for your help."
"You must be one of those warriors from that World Robin goes to for the big fighting tournament."
"Yeah, my name is Mario." Mario introduces himself.
"My name is Anna, the most reliable Merchant of this world." The red hair women happily greeted.
"A Merchant? Then, you must be the one that made the mission request?" Mario says.
"That's right! Robin must be here too." Anna says.
"Yeah… he's crowded around with all of the people here with Marth." Mario points to the large group of people.
"Marth? The Hero King and founder of Ylisse?" Anna surprisingly asks.
"Yeah. That's the one." Mario replies.
"I heard a lot about him when I was young. A friend of mine named Tiki never stops talking about him when I mentioned him. She said that he was like a big brother to him." Anna says.
Suddenly, Robin and Marth got out of the circle and met up with Mario and Anna.
"Robin, long time no see. And wow! It really is the Hero King!" Anna excitedly says.
"Anna? Why are you here in Ylisse?" Marth surprisingly asks.
"What do you mean? I always live here." Anna then understands. "Oh wait, I'm not the Anna you know in your world. From what I know, there are different kinds of Anna from different timelines. So I'm not the Anna you know."
"Really? You look really alike from the Anna in my world." Marth says.
Anna giggles. "So our good looks are passed through each generation. That's good to hear. Enough about that and let's get straight to business. Now that you three are here, come and help me with my request. We'll be putting all of my new merchandise in stock." She shows a huge wagon full of things like armor, weapons, potions, etc.
Mario and Robin's eyes pop out staring at the large pile of merchandise that's about the size of a hill.
"We're going to put up all of that? This is going to take forever." Mario whines.
"Why are there so many items this time?" Robin wonders.
"There were so many things I found that looks good to sell. I can't just leave it." Anna says.
"But are you really going to be able to sell all of these items?" Mario asks.
"Don't look down on me like I'm a low class Merchant. I can sell all of these as quick as you say, Sold!" Anna says.
"We can't say no to a mission we accepted. Let's help the lady. This can be a good way to develop a new relationship from people in different worlds." Marth says.
Anna smiles. "Like legend says, you're a real gentleman, Prince Marth."
"Of course Marth wouldn't decline a request like this." Robin sighs.
…
Mario, Robin, and Marth follow Anna to her shop.
"So how's business going lately?" Robin asks.
Anna smiles. "Well, I actually sold a really rare armor for double the price just a few hours ago. And I sold five bronze weapons in a bundle for triple the price. So yeah, business has been booming right now."
"Wow… you weren't kidding, Robin." Mario says.
"Remember what I said at the Smash Mansion." Robin reminds.
"I know... I know..." Mario says.
As they arrived, Anna's shop was a complete mess. There are a lot of scattered items on the floor like maps, potions, and some bronze weapons.
"My shop!" Anna cried.
"What must've happened?" Marth wonders.
"It's like a hurricane hit this place and took all the really good merchandise away." Robin says.
"It must be those Bandits!" Anna angrily says.
"Bandits?" Mario wonders.
"While I was heading back after doing business with some Soldiers the other day, some Bandits approached me and try taking everything away from me. Luckily, they were weak Bandits and I beat all of them in one swoop." Anna explains.
"Looks like they got you back big time." Robin says.
"All right, you three, here's another mission I like you to do. Get back my merchandise from those Bandits!" Anna demands.
"Right away." Marth says.
"Do we have to? I mean, you got new stuff to sell." Mario says.
Robin nods in agreement. "I agree with Mario. Why not leave them be?"
Suddenly, Anna takes Mario and Robin's money out of their pocket.
"What the?!" Robin exclaims.
"So quick!" Mario exclaims.
"If you two don't help, I'll be keeping this money as a replacement for all the stolen goods." Anna says.
"Come on, Mario, Robin. It shouldn't take too long. Besides, this is a mission we accepted so there's no going back until we're finished." Marth says.
Mario and Robin sigh and the three Smashers head out to find the Bandits.
The three Smashers searched around and found the Bandits Base. They sneak in and found the Bandits that took Anna's merchandise. Robin turns surprised when he sees Garrick.
"Garrick is back huh? So the Plegian Bandits are back at it." Robin says.
"What should we do?" Marth asks.
Robin thinks of something they can do. "Hmm… There are a lot of Bandits here for us to handle. So…"
"Hey! What are you three doing here?"
The Bandits all surround the three Smashers.
"Well, well, look who we have here. We have the Tactician that took us all out from before." Garrick says.
"Garrick, how did you and your Bandits get out?" Robin asks.
"Hmm… Why should I tell you? If I told you, then you'll probably run back and tell the Shepherds about it. Since you three figured us out, how about we all send you to Hell?" Garrick suggests.
"I don't like that idea." Mario says.
The Bandits ready up their weapons and Garrick grabs his Axe. "Attack!"
"Ok, here's the plan. Mario, go for the Bandits with Bow and Arrows. Use your Fireballs and your Super Leaf Cape. Marth, fight the Bandits with swords. I'll take care of Garrick." Robin ordered.
"Right!" Mario and Marth say at the same time.
Mario, Robin, and Marth split up and do as they planned. Mario takes out his Super Leaf Cape and reflects any projectile coming after him, uses his Fireballs to burn the Bows in the Bandits hands, and takes out the Bandits with his Punches and Kicks. Marth quickly rushes in and takes out the Bandits using his Falchion and takes out stronger Bandits with his Dancing Blade attack and Dolphin Slash. Robin and Garrick are clashing with each other in a different area. Garrick lifts up his Axe and swings it as hard as he can. Robin easily dodges it and lands some Bronze Sword Slashes. Garrick continues swinging his Axe wildly, hoping to hit Robin. Robin continues to easily dodge each attack and lands a strong Air Slash with his Bronze Sword on Garrick's stomach, sending him sliding back. Garrick grits his teeth, charges in, and attacks with a powerful Axe Swing with all his might. Robin jumps away, takes out his Levin Sword, lands a strong slash on Garrick's chest, sending him flying and knocking him out.
"Errgh! Not again..." Garrick faints.
"Check mate." Robin says, putting his Levin Sword away. "I didn't need any of my tomes against you."
"Looks like our work here is done. Let's call on some soldiers to capture them." Marth says.
…
The three Smashers return back to Anna's shop with all of her merchandise that were stolen.
"You got them back!" Anna happily exclaims.
"Yeah… Now give us our money back please." Robin says.
Anna sighs. "Fine, here." Anna gives Mario and Robin back their bag of money.
Mario notices something. "Wait, my bag feels lighter."
"Did you take some of our money while we're gone?" Robin asks.
Anna sticks her tongue out. "Yep! Now that half of your mission is done, help me set up all the merchandise. After that I'll return it."
Mario and Robin sigh, as Marth giggles.
"This is a really long mission for something so simple." Mario says.
A few hours later, the three Smashers finished stocking every merchandise in the store.
"We're done, Anna." Marth says.
Anna smiles. "Thank you so much for helping! Robin, Mario, here's the rest of your money." Anna gives the rest of Mario and Robin's money back to them.
"Thanks, but shouldn't we deserve a reward for doing your mission requests?" Mario asks.
"Hmm… How about I ask Chrom to serve you a big feast at the Castle?" Anna suggests.
"That sounds good actually. I want to see Chrom again and need to introduce Marth to a special someone." Robin says.
Anna takes the Smashers to the Castile. As they arrived inside, they found Chrom talking to Olivia, Frederick, Sumia, Lissa, and Tiki.
"Hey everyone, look who's here." Anna called.
Chrom and the rest take their attention to the three Smashers and turn really surprised.
"Robin!" Chrom called out.
"You're back!" Lissa happily says.
"It's good to see you again, Robin." Frederick greeted.
"Welcome back." Olivia greeted.
"How's the tournament?" Sumia asks.
"Hey everyone, it's good to see you all again. The tournament is going great! How are you guys?" Robin asks.
"Doing just fine. We were just doing some training just for the heck of it. Haven't really gotten a lot of action since our fight with Grima." Chrom says.
"You mustn't remind about that foul creature to Robin." Lissa says.
"It's all good." Robin says.
Marth notices the green haired girl staring at her with awe and let's out a wave. "Greetings. My name is Marth."
Tiki got close, looks at Marth really closely and couldn't believe it. "Mar-Mar?"
Marth looks at Tiki really closely. "Mar-Mar? I haven't heard that name for such a while. The only person that calls me that is... Wait... Tiki? Is that you?"
Tiki nods her head yes. "Yes Mar-Mar, it's me. The one little girl you knew from before.
Marth couldn't believe it and just smile. "You grew so much in the far future."
Tiki cries tears of joy and gives Marth a huge hug for being separated for so long in the future. "I miss you… Mar-Mar."
Marth hugs back, returning the favor. "You look really beautiful, Tiki."
The Smashers and the Shepherds smile at the happy reunion.
"What a happy reunion. Glad that I brought Marth with us." Robin says.
"By the way, Robin, who's this man with you?" Chrom asks.
"He doesn't look like he's from here." Frederick says.
"My name is Mario and I'm from the same tournament that Robin is in. Nice to meet you all." Mario introduces himself.
Lissa giggles. "You have a really big nose!"
Mario got irritated. "What did you say?"
"Lissa, please don't say that." Olivia asks nicely.
"It's not nice to say that." Sumia says.
"I apologize for what my little sister said to you, my name is Chrom." Chrom introduces himself and offers his hand for a handshake.
Mario smiles and accepts Chrom's handshake.
"Chrom, can we have the servants cook a big feast? Robin, Marth, and Mario helped me a lot today." Anna asks.
"Of course! Frederick, will you please tell our servants?" Chrom asks.
"Right away." Frederick says.
The three Smashers and the Persians enjoy a banquet at the hall. Mario and Robin eat like there's no tomorrow while the others are eating normally.
"They must be really hungry after helping you, Anna." Olivia says.
Anna winks. "Yep, I made them work really hard for me."
"Wow! You fought so many interesting warriors, Mar-Mar." Tiki says.
"Yeah and they're really strong. Like Mario over there, he beat me in the first tournament. It was really an amazing fight." Marth says.
"Wow!" Tiki exclaims.
"You must be strong then. How about you show us how you fight?" Chrom suggests.
"I too am interested." Frederick says.
"I would love to. Maybe you all should watch the Super Smash Bros tournament and you'll see a lot of different people fighting." Mario says.
"So, Mario, do you have a girlfriend?" Sumia asks.
Mario stops eating and looks down. "Umm... No… I don't..."
Robin whispers into Sumia's ear of what happened.
"Oh my… I apologize for asking." Sumia apologizes.
"It's ok… You just want to know more about me. How about asking something else?" Mario suggests.
"Hmm… Since you're from another world, care to tell us what sorts of things you do?" Frederick asks.
Mario smiles and tells them things he does in his world.
"That's what you do in your world? Sounds like a lot of fun!" Lissa happily says.
"You save this Princess from a giant turtle that breaths fire. That sounds like a lot of trouble." Chrom says.
"Yeah, especially since he had done a lot of crazy things just to get her." Mario says.
"Doing a lot of party games, racing, sports, and dancing? You do a lot of fun things in your world." Sumia says.
"Can you show us how you dance? I would like to learn some new dance moves." Olivia asks.
"Well… It's been a long time since I done that." Mario replies.
"That's too bad… When you come back again, show me so we can dance together." Olivia says.
"You three must have an amazing time fighting at the tournament." Frederick says.
"Yeah, it's a lot of fun being there." Robin says.
"How is Lucina doing there? I was hoping to see her with you." Chrom asks.
"She's having an amazing time there. She made a lot of friends and doing a lot of new things with them. There's no need to worry about her." Robin replies.
"I wish I was part of the tournament. I want to see my daughter again!" Chrom cried, not seeing her beloved daughter.
After their banquet is finished, the Smashers are about to head out.
"Thanks for everything!" Anna thanked.
"Mar-Mar… Will I see you again?" Tiki asks.
Marth smiles. "Of course. Since I'm part of this tournament, I can visit here as much as I want. I'll even bring Caeda here.
Tiki smiles. "Hope you come soon. I really miss seeing her!"
"I will." Marth says.
"Robin, tell Lucina I say hi and bring her here with her friends one day." Chrom says.
"I'll tell her." Robin says.
"It's nice seeing you, big nose! Come again so we can play some games." Lissa says.
"Please don't call me that and why not?"Mario says.
"Come again with some new warriors and we'll make a huge banquet again." Frederick.
"Yeah. It'll be nice to see new people from different worlds." Sumia says.
"And make sure that you remember how to dance, Mario." Olivia says.
"I'll try." Mario giggles.
The three Smashers smile, wave bye to everyone, and head back to the Smash Mansion.
Anna smirks and takes out a gold coin. "Mario really have unique coins compared to our world."
