-Finding The Travel Machine-

Little Mac rushed his way over to Smash Downtown. This place is huge. He didn't know where to start. He followed the trail of blood on the ground. Could this be her blood? What happened? He prayed that she didn't get hurt or worse.

After what felt like hours, he spotted someone on the floor. He went over to the figure. As he was 20 feet away, he knew who it was. It was Mewtwo. The Pokemon was lying face first on the floor. He ran up to the Pokemon and scooped it in his arms.

"Mewtwo?" Little Mac questioned.

No answer.

"Mewtwo!"

Still no reply.

He checked its heartbeat, but there was no pulse. The Pokemon was gone. There was blood all over his ears. Could it have been that powerful scream he heard earlier? He gently placed Mewtwo back on the floor and continued to follow the droplets of blood.

The blood trail led him to a bench. He saw someone sitting there. Someone with pink short hair. Could that be Kirby? He doesn't recall her having short hair. It could be another woman. In fact, this person could very well be the Pokemon killer.

He approached the lady from the back. He tapped her shoulder and when she turned around, he prepared a defensive stance. Her deep sea blue eyes locked with his.

"Kirby? Oh, Kirby! It is you!" He pulled her into a hug.

"Little Mac, how did you find me?"

"I followed a trail of blood. Are you bleeding? Who hurt you?!"

"It's… Not my blood."

"What?"

"It's Charizard's."

"No, this isn't real."

"I killed."

"Kirby…"

"I took it too far."

"It was self-defense. You had no choice!"

"I didn't have to kill them."

"Kirby, listen to me, it's not your fault. You had to otherwise they would keep coming after you. If anything, it's Mario's fault. He's the one that pinned everyone against you."

"That's true, but-

"No buts! Now c'mon, let's get you to that travel machine."

Little Mac grabbed Kirby's hand and pulled her to the direction of the mansion. They had to sneak their way back. Luckily no one noticed them when they went back inside the mansion. Now is the true test. They had to make their way to the travel machine, but where could it possibly be?

Little Mac took out the Mario Mushroom and she ate it. She turned tiny and he put her inside his pocket. Hopefully he'll be able to find the place before she turns back into her original height.

He found a map in the smash lobby. He examined it and found where it could be. The travel machine wasn't an excluded area like the item room. People used it all the time to go home during spring, summer, winter, and fall break. It was mainly used for the assist trophies and spirits, but anyone could use it. Even normal human beings from the material world. However, it was in the basement level where the item room was located. It's also the place where the camera caught him and Lloyd snooping around. It's fine. The boy said he would take care of it.

Little Mac ran to the travel machine room. He tried to open the door, but it was locked. That's right, The Hands would open the code for them. It wasn't out of access like the item room, but they still needed permission to leave. The Hands didn't want people bringing in unwanted guests. It's happened before, so they had to make the rules strict.

What can he do? Lloyd! He can ask Lloyd for help, but last time he saw him he was caught on camera. He did say he'll get rid of the footage. He could be where the footage room is. Little Mac went up the stairs to where the room is. He punched it open and saw that non one was there. Where could Lloyd be? He scanned the area and noticed a locker. He found him in the trash can, so this isn't the weirdest place to look.

Little Mac broke the lock and opened the locker. There he is! He saw a scared Lloyd in the fetal position.

"Lloyd! It's me, Little Mac," He grabbed the shy nerd.

"Waah!"

"Don't be scared. It's me, remember?"

"Oh, thank god. I thought it was one of the guards."

"Why are you hiding?"

"A guard came in here to check the footage. I'm sorry, I wasn't able to delete it in time. The guard knows that we broke into the item room. I've been hiding here ever since."

"Dammit!"

"I'm sorry."

"Don't be sorry. In fact, I should be thanking you. You're the reason why I got this far in the first place."

"Thanks~"

"I need one more favor."

"Huh?"

"Can you hack into the travel machine room?"

"It's not off limits like the item room, so yeah I can do it easily."

"Can you please open it for me?"

"What if the guard comes back? I'm scared."

"Don't worry, Kirby and I will protect you."

"They know my face. I… I'll do it, but I want to come with. I don't want to get caught."

"Of course."

"Where is Kirby?"

"In my pocket."

"Hi," Kirby greeted.

"How will something so tiny be able to fight off the guards?"

"Oh trust me, she's powerful. Anyway, let's go."

…

-The Clones-

Clone Ness and Leaf were hanging out in his room. They were watching a movie, but halfway through they started making out with each other. They started stripping their clothes off but they heard the big announcement that the imposter is on the run.

Ness immediately froze up. Kirby is back?! Wait, he thought she left smash to her home planet. Oh no, this is bad. The boss is going to take it out on him and Sonic.

"The intruder is back? The one that killed Kirby?" Leaf questioned.

"Yeah, we should go look for her."

"Wait, but…"

"Oh right… I want to but the intruder is here. She might be killing our fellow smashers as we speak. We should do something about it."

"I hate to stop, but you're right."

"I'm sorry."

"Don't be sorry! This is important! We should hurry."

The two put the rest of their clothes back on. They left the room and started searching around. Ness saw Ritcher running around the halls.

"Ritcher!" Ness called out.

"What do you want? Can't you see I'm busy?"

"Have you seen the imposter anywhere?"

"The imposter? What're you talking about?"

"The imposter! From the announcement!"

"Is that what that was about? Nah, I'm looking for your twin sister. I can't stop thinking about her."

"What the hell are you talking about? I don't have a twin sister."

"You do! I saw her around here before. She said she's from the Pokemon universe, but I think she said that because she was nervous. You know how girls are."

Leaf cleared her throat.

Leaf: "I'm right here."

Ritcher: "So you understand my point then."

Ness: "Ritcher! Now's not the time. There's an imposter on the-

Ritcher: "So wait, is she not your hot twin?"

Ness: "What? No!"

Leaf: "Say, did this hot twin have long black hair?"

Ritcher: "Yeah!"

Leaf: "That was Ness!" *Giggles*

Ritcher: "I refuse to believe that."

Leaf: "I told you, Ness. You pulled it off."

Ness: "Thanks…"

Ritcher: "Wait, so that hot chick was you?!"

Ness: "Can we not?"

Leaf: "Yes! Wasn't he the cutest?" She grabbed Ness's cheek and pulled it.

Ritcher: "Fuck you, Ness!"

Ness: "What did I do?!"

Ritcher: "You're a gay shit! You led me on. You wanted to get into my pants by dressing up as a girl. Fucking faggot!"

Leaf: "You flirted with Ritcher after?"

Ness: "No, quite the opposite."

Ritcher: "He was all over me."

Ness: "Was I? You're the one that said 'oh come on, stay I promise I'll give you a good time' you fucking creep."

Leaf: "Yeah I think you're too into yourself, Ritcher."

Ritcher: "Fuck both of you! I'mma go work out unlike this pussy boy who sucks dick for a living."

Ness: "Compensating because you're a virgin I see."

Ritcher: "Says you!"

Leaf: "I mean…"

Ness gives Leaf a look. She bites her tongue and looks the other way. Ritcher stared at the two confused.

Ritcher: "What are you saying you two banged?"

Ness: "No."

Ritcher: "Yeah, good. There's no way anyone would be attracted to such a loser."

Ness: "Ritcher, can you shut the fuck up and look for the imposter."

Ritcher: "Don't wanna."

Ness: "Whatever, fine you're useless anyway. Come on, Leaf, let's go."

Ritcher: "What did you say to me, punk?"

Ness: "I said you're useless."

Ritcher punched Ness on the shoulder. Ness put his hand on his shoulder and jumped back. The two had a stare down.

"PK Fire!" Ness screamed.

He summoned a bolt of fire directly at Ritcher from his fingertips. It connected and Ritcher was burning in the flames. Once the flames dissipated, he took out his whip and stared at Ness with hate in his eyes. Ness took out his bat and bent his knees. If he wants a fight, he's getting a fight! Ritcher swung his whip at him, but Ness dodged it. He jumped at him and whacked Ritcher with his bat. Ritcher was on the floor. Ness stared down at him and gave him a cocky smirk. This pissed the Belmont off. Ritcher swung his leg at Ness's leg. This caused the clone to drop his bat and fall on his ass.

Ritcher got back up and kicked Ness's face. He was about to stomp on him again, but Charizard grabbed his body and flew him up to the ceiling. Charizard then used a seismic toss and slammed Ritcher head first on the concrete. This knocked the Belmont out.

Leaf ran over to Ness and helped him back up.

"Holy shit, thanks," Ness smiled at her.

"Are you ok?"

"Yeah, he didn't lay a scratch on me."

"I'm glad you're ok," She hugged him.

"Thank you, Leaf."

"Don't thank me, thank Charizard."

"Thank you, Charizard."

"Charrr," Charizard cried.

"Anyway, let's go look for the imposter," Leaf said.

"Send out the rest of your Pokemon. We need all the eyes we can get."

"Ok."

"Let's split up for now."

"Good idea."

Ness took out his phone and texted his boss.

Ness: Boss Kirby is back. I'm gonna go look for her but idk if shes in the mansion anymorre

Hopefully he can get brownie points from his boss. Maybe he'll be more lenient with him after this. In fact, if he manages to capture Kirby then Mario will give him more benefits. Maybe he can convince his boss that he can date Leaf officially. The big question is, is Kirby even inside the mansion still.

Mario didn't text back. He's probably in the bunker. He went there but he didn't see his boss. Instead he saw Mickey Mouse and Goofy.

Ness: "Guys, Kirby is back."

Goofy: "Oh is she now?"

Mickey: "I thought she left smash."

Ness: "I thought so too."

Mickey: "Perfect timing!"

Ness: "What?"

Mickey: "It's time to test out my new toy."

Ness: "Toy?"

Mickey and Goofy moved aside. Ness witnessed a cyborg. The thing was half human and half robot. It looked miserable. The poor thing was crying in its left eye. The other eye was robotic. Its left arm was swapped with a gun and both of its legs were cut off and turned into a jet. It hovered in the air and waited for Mickey to say a command.

Ness: "M-Mickey, what is that thing?"

Mickey: "You don't know who he is? He's your fellow smasher."

Goofy: "He's the clone."

Mickey: "Right. Well it doesn't matter. He's not him anymore. He's my android."

Ness: "He used to be human?"

Mickey: "Yup. Pretty impressive, right? I do this to most of my slaves back at home."

Ness: "Slaves? Y-you're not gonna do that to me, are you?"

Mickey: "Nope. I don't want to ruin your cute face."

Ness: "Huh?"

Mickey: "At least for now. Ho-ho!"

Ness: "Y-you…"

Goofy: "He's messing with ya. He won't turn you into an android. You're a part of the team."

Ness: "Yes I-I'm 100% on your side."
Mickey: "Good, now let's see what my prototype can do."

Ness: "Prototype?"

Goofy: "We've never augmented a Nintendo character before. This is our first time."

Ness: "I-I see."

Mickey: "Alright, Villager I want you to find Kirby."

Villager: "At your service, Master."
