The train was absolutely packed with people leaving barely any room to stand. Lucas saw so many old faces alongside a few new ones. Lucas felt extremely stressed as all of these faces blurred around him until suddenly he spotted someone he could always rely on.

Lucas: Ness!

Ness: Oh, hey there! I was looking for you!

Ness was followed by Nana, Popo, and Toon Link. Lucas prayed that Ness’ old friends, Nana and Popo, would be friendly. The twins proceeded to smile a smile so bright that it could power a solar panel. Lucas breathed a sigh of relief.

Meanwhile, an angry Samus was being kept on the exact opposite side of the train as Ridley and Dark Samus.

Snake: I know what they did to you, but killing him while we’re still on the train won’t exactly please the Hands.

Samus: Like I give a shit.
g
Snake: … Yeah.

Snake then stopped trying to convince Samus not to kill them as Samus by stomped toward Ridley.

Lucina: Shouldn’t we stop her?

Snake: Nah.

Mewtwo just floated in place.

Awkwardly.

He knew many of these people from the 2nd and 4th tournaments, but wasn’t exactly sure how to approach people. He wanted wanted to make new friends, but the Villain Crew were the only ones friendly to him. He wanted a fresh start.

He looked at an unusual squid-like being.
They were new here so they wouldn’t have any bias against him, right? He approached the… thing.

Mewtwo: Um, hello there.

Purple Inkling: Woomy!

Mewtwo could not understand what he was saying, but he was able to read the squid’s mind after touching his head to understand what he was saying. Using the knowledge in the kid’s head he started to speak his language.

Mewtwo: Woomy? ( So… you’re new, huh?)

Purple Inkling: Woomy! Woomy! ( Woah, someone here can Inklish! That’s shella cool!)

Mewtwo: Woomy. (I… suppose so.)

Purple Inkling: Woomy! (Hey guys come here, this dude knows Inklish)

Eight of these squid creatures surrounded him asking him all sorts of questions all at once.

Agent 3: Woomy? ( Are those things humans?)

Cyan: Woomy? ( Why does nobody else here know Inklish?)

Orange: Woomy? ( Why are so many different creatures here?)

Green: Woomy? ( What is even going on?)

Pink: Woomy? ( Where is the bathroom?)

Mewtwo: Woomy. (Hey, um… can you ask things one at a time.)

Mewtwo was overwhelmed but he also made some new friends.

While Ken was pretty confused about all of the weird people here, he never turned up a chance to improve his fighting skills.

Suddenly, in the sea of unknown faces, he spotted someone familiar. He shouted to him from across the train car.

Ken: Hey, Ryu!

Ken ran up to Ryu enthusiastically.

Ryu: *sigh* It’s nice to see you too, Ken.

Ken: Man, so this is what the ‘Smash’ place is like! You barely told me anything about this place! Like, there are giant monsters and dinosaurs and OH MY GOD IS THAT MARIO!

Ken immediately ran over to greet Mario without waiting for any sort of response from Ryu. After briefly talking to Mario he walked back to Ryu.

Ken: So, anyway it’s nice to be a different fighting tournament than the usual one. I got tired of fighting the same old people, but this place looks like it has all sorts of crazy fighters!

Ryu simply nodded his head.

Ken: So, anyway I’m gonna go talk to some of these dudes; Try to figure out what they’re capable of. So, see you later!

Cloud casually walked up to Ryu.

Cloud: Is he always like that?

Ryu nodded.

Simon walked around in an extremely confused state. Somehow, the room was moving! And he was stuck in here with all sorts of creatures. He couldn’t tell if they were Dracula’s servants or not.

Suddenly, a man walked with his whip in his hands. But his whip was right here on his belt.
Did this impersonator really recreate his whip, or was that actually his? Simon yelled out to him.

Simon: Halt! Do you know what you have.

Richter paused for a moment as the wheels turned in his head.

Richter: Wait, are you the great Simon Belmont?!

Simon: Yes, now rightfully return my whip.

Richter: Oh, uhm this was actually given to me by my dad.

Simon: Ah I see, you father simply created a replica of this fine weapon.

Richter: Uhm… No. You see… I’m your grandson.

Simon: What.

Richter: Yeah, somehow I’m meeting you when you were younger. I know the guys on the announcements said something about different points in time, but this is insane!

Simon: Hm… I see. You too are of Belmont blood. It will be handy to have someone I can trust here.

Richter: Ok, gramps!

Simon: Don’t you dare call me that again.

Chapter Text

As the train got closer to their destination they saw chunks and sections from all sorts of different worlds stitched together with a large house in the center of all of the converging worlds. These sections had many familiar friends and enemies within them. Luigi stared out the window in awe.

Luigi: Hey Daisy, look we’re going through the Mushroom Kingdom!

Daisy: Oh, and there’s a… smaller Sarasaland.

Luigi: Yeah, the Mushroom Kingdom is smaller here too.

Daisy: …Wait. Is that fucKING TATANGA! I’m gonna run out there and kick his ass!

Luigi: Uhm… Uh… Daisy, the Hands said that they brought a lot of… not-so-nice people from our worlds here, but they wouldn’t allow them to hurt us! Plus, look there’s all sorts of your friends here too!

Daisy: I guess so… but if that guy speaks a word to me, I’m gonna hurl him into the stratosphere.

Luigi: …Ok, babe.

Falco: Wow, there’s somebody Daisy hates that much. I didn’t know you had it in ya!

Daisy: That damn bastard kidnapped me!

Falco: But, doesn’t Bowser do that to Peach all the time and you guys are still friends with him.

Daisy: Do I LOOK like Peach?!

Luigi: Please-a calm down Daisy, he’s not gonna be able to do anything this time.

Falco: Eh, I guess I just don’t get it. Wait… is that goddAMN ANDROSS! Hey Fox, we gotta kill Andross again!

Fox: Are you kidding me?!

Falco: No.

The two of them then tried to leave the train out of the emergency exit only to get pushed back down by Crazy Hand who teleported in to stop them.

Falco: … I guess I get it now.

Luigi and Daisy chuckled quietly.

An announcement was played on the overhead speakers for everyone to hear.

Announcer: HELLO CONTESTANTS! WE ARE NOW ARRIVING AT THE SMASH MANOR! PLEASE EXIT THE TRAIN IN A NEAT AND ORDERLY FASHION. ONCE INSIDE, YOU WILL BE ESCORTED TO YOUR ROOMS BY OUR STAFF MEMBERS. AND FOR ALL OUR NEW CONTESTANTS, WELCOME TO SUPER SMASH BROS.!

The announcement was then repeated again except this time it was in Inklish.

Chapter Text

The Manor lobby was a madhouse filled with all sorts of people all wanting to go to all of their different rooms. The staff was so absurdly swamped for the first few minutes. Many different people were talking all at once making speech incomprehensible unless you were right next to them. However, in a few minutes the lobby was completely empty and everyone was exploring the manor.

Suddenly Chrom was approached by a very familiar face.

Lucina: Hey, dad!

Chrom: Lucina!

The two exchanged a short hug before continuing their conversation.

Lucina: I knew you were in the tournament this time, but I couldn’t find you on the train!

Chrom: Neither could I! …Though this still feels rather bizarre.

Lucina: …Why?

Chrom: Well… you aren’t even born yet for me, so it still feels unusual to see you as an adult again, y’know?

Lucina: I’m surprised you aren’t used to it by now; I fought in your army like this.

Chrom: Just still feels weird, I guess.

Samus: I know what that’s like.

Chrom nearly jumped out of his skin.

Chrom: Oh… uhm… I didn’t know you were here.

Samus: Yeah, Ridley was brought here from a different point in time before I killed him, so… just be glad that that happened to someone you like.

An awkward silence ensued with neither Lucina or Chrom being sure of what to say.

Chrom: …Wait does that mean that the dead here have all come back to life!

Samus: Not everyone.

Chrom: Oh…

Chrom: Well, at least there’s a chance they’re back. Lucina, let’s go look for our fallen army members!

Lucina: Yeah!

The two practically skipped off to check if any of their dead Allie’s were revived. However, Samus knew considering her track record of who was brought back and who remained dead, they probably wouldn’t find anyone they wanted to find. But hey, she could at least give them hope.

Red was introducing Leaf to the mania of Smash when out of the corner of her eye, she spotted an anthropomorphic fox creature.

Leaf: Oh my god! Look at that pokémon! I gotta catch that one!

Red: Uhm… he’s not

But, it was already too late. Leaf was sneaking up to Fox with an ultraball in hand. And she chucked the thing directly at his head.

Fox: Hey, what the hell! You can’t just throw metal at me!

Leaf: Oh my god! The pokémon can speak! It must be a legendary or something!

Red: That’s… not

Leaf threw another ultraball at him.

Fox: What the shit! If you keep throwing metal balls at my head, I’m gonna get a concussion.

Leaf: Hm… you’re tougher than I thought.

Leaf took out a masterball.

Red: Leaf no!

But it was too late, she already threw the masterball at him hitting him square in the gut having Fox double over in pain.

A few people gathered around Fox to see if he was okay.

Leaf: Oh cool, that’s a flying type I’ve never seen before!

Red: Leaf, please stop!

Chapter Text

Everyone was exploring the manor and gawking at all of the different rooms.

One of these rooms happened to be the dining hall done in an all-you-can-eat buffet style. Due to the massive amounts of people here as well as people wanting to eat at different times, the put this in place, so people could eat whatever and whenever they wanted. They were unsure to go with this plan considering how much some of the contestants can eat, but they have to get full eventually… right?

Kirby smelled some amazing food and waddled into the dining hall. There he spied all sorts of pizza, ice cream, chicken, lollipops, grapes, and bananas. Kirby was in heaven. Kirby started sucking up everything in sight, then it dawned on him King Dedede would want to eat this too! Kirby yelled out to Dedede rather loudly.

Kirby: Poyo!

King Dedede: Huh? Fine, I’m comin’

King Dedede spied absurd amounts of food everywhere. Juicy, fresh food.

King Dedede: Have I eva told you how much I love ya kirby.

They both started sucking up all of the food in sight. Then, it dawned on Dedede. Pac-Man would NOT want to miss out on this! He yelled out to Pac-Man with his gullet still filled with food.

King Dedede: ‘Ey Pac-Attack!

Pac-Man turned around to face Dedede from 2 rooms away.

King Dedede: Come ‘ere

Pac-Man approached in a somewhat confused way before seeing the piles of food.

Pac-Man: Well, I guess the foodie group’s back together!

They all collectively chowed down on every morsel of food that the dining hall had.

Mii Brawler happened to be pecking at the time and asked one of the staff members where the dining hall was.

The staff member guided the Mii to the dining hall only to see the last bit of food being gobbled up by Pac-Man. The employee whispered under his breath.

Staff: What the hell.

Before he began to scream.

Staff: WHAT DID YOU GUYS DO! Where'd all the food go?!

Pac-Man: We… uh… ate it?

Staff: HOW?! You guys must be hiding the food somewhere.

King Dedede: Yeah, in our stomachs!

Kirby let out a happy and satisfied poyo.

The staff member took out his walkie-talkie and started talking into it.

Staff: We have 3 fighters in the dining hall who have claimed to have eaten all of the food.

Master Hand: Wait, who are they

Staff: Kirby, Pac-Man, and King Dedede, sir.

Master Hand: Oh, goddamn it

Staff: Uh… sir, they couldn’t of possibly eaten all of the food, right?

Master Hand: I figured they had some sort of limit on how much they could eat, but I guess not

The staff member was absolutely flabbergasted. He put his 2 of his fingers in between his eyes and the bridge of his nose in frustration.

Staff: Get out of the dining hall, now.

Chapter Text

The first scheduled fight of the entire tournament was going to start in 15 minutes. Shulk was wondering what was taking his competitor so long to get here.

Meta Knight was walking around the Smash manor looking for Kirby. After all, this was going to be his first fight. He found Kirby in the middle of a hallway completely asleep.

No matter how much he tried, he could not get the pink puffball to wake up. Meta Knight started muttering to himself.

Meta Knight: Something suspicious is going on here.

Meta Knight flew over to the reception counter and asked for what Kirby was doing yesterday.

Staff: Oh… Kirby…

The staff member said this while rolling his eyes.

Staff: He SOMEHOW ate EVERYTHING we had at the buffet with King Dedede and Pac-Man’s help.

Meta Knight: You… let him eat… that much?!

Staff: Uhm… Well, we figured there was some sort of limit on how much he could eat.

Meta Knight: You don’t get it do you.

The staff member shot him a confused look.

Meta Knight: Kirby is in a food coma right now and probably won’t wake up for the next couple of days?! He has a fight in…

Meta Knight looked at his non-existent wrist watch.

Meta Knight: 10 minutes.

Staff: Uh…

Meta Knight: You morons better do something about this quick.

A still sleeping Kirby was kicked into the fighting arena.

Shulk gave a confused look.

Shulk: How am I supposed to fight someone who’s asleep?! This doesn’t feel fair at all!

Shulk slowly walked up to Kirby grabbed him with both hands and tried to shake him awake. Only to no avail. He tried shaking him again. Nothing happened. Shulk squished down on Kirby’s head with the back of his Monado. He stayed asleep.

The announcer’s voice boomed throughout the stadium.

Announcer: IT APPEARS WE ARE HAVING SOME TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES. PLEASE WAIT UNTIL THE PROBLEM IS SOLVED.

Kirby had the booming voice ring in his non-existent ears. Kirby slowly woke up.

The first battle could finally begin.

At the cost of Kirby now having a grudge against the announcer

Chapter Text

Isabelle hit Palutena in the face with her pom-poms flinging her into the blast zone.

Announcer: ISABELLE WINS!

Isabelle walked out of the arena as proud as ever. She was greeted by an immediate tackle-hug from Villager boy.

Villager Boy: See, I told you you would do great!

Isabelle: I guess so…

Villager Girl: Yeah, you did great out there!

Isabelle: Aw… you guys. But, I’m honestly surprised that I beat her. Like… she’s a goddess!

Villager Girl: Oh, yeah the hand will boost some people’s power and restrict some of their power to make the fights more fair.

Villager Boy: Yeah, how else do you think I stood a chance?

Isabelle: But… Villager Boy you’d do great even without the help!

Villager Boy and Villager Girl looked at each other with a doubting look.

Villager Girl: Yeah… sure…

Isabelle: I mean it!

Villager Boy: Ok, Ok!

Suddenly Palutena approached.

Palutena: You fought well. I hope we can meet again on the battlefield.

Isabelle: Oh, uh… thanks, miss!

King K. Rool: ‘Ey Greninja!

Greninja: What is it you want now?

Greninja spoke in a gurgly way which most people couldn’t recognize as his replication of English. Ever since him and Ash shared a body he could understand and somewhat replicate English.

King K. Rool: So… I know you turned down my first offer, but-

Greninja: I am NOT joining your reptilian gang.

King K. Rool: Oh come on; can’t you even hear me out?!

Greninja: I already did. LAST TIME.

King K. Rool: But I got more members in the gang now!

Greninja: Just because Baron and Kaptain joined doesn’t mean that I will.

King K. Rool: Well, it isn’t just them. I got Ridley and Yoshi to join the gang too!

Greninja: I don’t think Yoshi even understands that he joined.

King K. Rool: Hey, Yoshi is smarter than you realize!

Greninja: …Wait, are you actually defending someone for once?

King K. Rool: Yeah! Us reptiles gotta look out for each other!

Greninja: If you really are this passionate about this… perhaps I’ll join.

King K. Rool: Hell yeah! Now I just need to convince Squirtle.

Greninja: …Wait, did you get rejected by Squirtle?!

Greninja started quietly chuckling to himself.

King K. Rool: What’s it to ya?!

Greninja: Oh, nothing… nothing.

Chapter Text

Simon: You shall be banished from the pits of hell from whence you came, foul beast!

Simon was throwing holy water and swinging crosses at her.

Richter started to yell to Simon while out of breath.

Richter: Wait… WAIT!

Bayonetta: You really don’t know how to treat a girl right do you?

Simon: Begone foul fiend!

Bayonetta: You aren’t helping your case.

This chase has now gone on for 12 minutes with neither of the 2 showing any signs of stopping soon. Meanwhile, Richter was chasing after both of them, extremely out of breath.

Richter: Wait! Stop! She isn’t evil!

For once, Simon heard what he was saying.

Simon: Nonsense! Our duty as Belmonts is to rid the world of foul demons like her.

Bayonetta: I’m a witch for Christ’s sake!

Simon: Makes no difference. You were still born out of the malice of Dracula. Now perish, fool! For your witchood and for uttering the Lord’s name out of your sinful mouth.

Richter was so damn exhausted, he just gave up.
This was the 3rd time they’ve fought since they got here. He’s talked to Bayonetta before and she didn’t seem too bad. He had to stop this somehow.

The others members of the Smash Manor had picked up on this rivalry of sorts. I mean Simon had tried to kill Bayonetta 3 times, Ganondorf twice, and Robin once. And they’ve only been here 3 days! So, when Richter proposed an idea, almost everyone was on board.

Richter: So, do you know the reason for which I brought you here?

Simon: I am unaware.

Richter: So, this is an intervention.

Simon: What!? For what purpose would I require one of those?!

Bayonetta strutted into the room.

Bayonetta: Because you’ve tried to kill me on a daily basis.

Simon: Ha! You sincerely except me to listen to a follower of Dracula?!

Bayonetta: Who the hell is this Dracula dude you keep blabbering on about? Like is he the vampire or just a guy named Dracula?

Simon: Do not play dumb with me, witch! You know well who you serve!

Richter: You see, that’s the problem.

Simon have Richter a confused look.

Richter: She doesn’t.

Simon: … Pardon?

Richter: She betrayed many of the dark beings she used to work for and now fights against them.

Simon: …

Richter: And then there’s Robin who used dark magic to save his entire world!

Simon: What about Ganondorf?

Richter: Oh… he’s just actually evil.

A slight grin grew on Simon’s face.

Simon: Well, perhaps I judged you prematurely, betrayer of the dark.

Bayonetta: Yeah, ya think?!

Simon decided to let that comment go.

Richter: Simon, you must remember that most of these people are the main heroes of their universe.

Simon: Ok, Richter, Ok.

The Duck Hunt Dog strutted victoriously out of the battle arena. He had won his battle against Jigglypuff.

So many people were gathered outside the door to obviously congratulate him.

Wait.

They aren’t petting me.

What.

Snake: I’m just saying, this is essentially dogfighting.

Leaf: So?

Snake: WHAT DO YOU MEAN SO?! THIS IS GODDAMN ANIMAL ABUSE!

Leaf: Dude, the fighters get revived afterwards and they’re completely fine then.

Female Wii Fit Trainer: It is still rather cruel to put them in a battle to the death even if they’re revived after. After all, they would still have to feel the pain.

Snake: Finally, I’m not on my own here!

Leaf: Yeah, but they also feel that pain when the battle normally.

Snake: Do ya mean in the wild? Cuz’ if so you’re one messed up kid.

Leaf: Well, I’m not just talking about the wild, I’m also talking about in the battles.

Female Wii Fit Trainer: What… battles?

Leaf: Y’know Pokémon battles! Er… Wait, Red said you call them animals here, so animal battles!

Snake: What the hell! Do people battle animals in your world?!

Leaf: Well, I guess so.

Snake and the Trainer looked at each other with a concerned look.

Red suddenly walked in and whispered something in Leaf’s ear.

Leaf: Oh, wait animals in your world don’t want to fight?! What kind of world is that!?

Snake and the Trainer both gave her a dumbfounded look. These Pokémon things wanted to fight?!

Leaf: Oh, uh… sorry I guess I’m just not used to the other worlds yet.

Snake: Wait, but that still seems cruel to Duck and Hunt. After all, those seem like normal animals!

Snake trudged off into the distance with an enraged look on his face.

He burst into Master Hand and Crazy Hand’s office.

Snake: Why the hell are you letting a dog compete?!

Master Hand: *sigh* The dog agreed to it.

Snake: WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU MEAN THE DOG AGREED TO IT?!

Master Hand: Language!

Crazy Hand: I wEnT iNtA ‘iS mInD aN’ aSkEd HiM iF hE wAs CoOl WiTh FiGhTiN’ wHiCh He WaS.

Snake: …Ok?

Master Hand: We’ve been asked this question by 4 different people now. We might as well just make a public announcement about it.

Crazy Hand: SuRe, BrO!

Master Hand: Do NOT call me “Bro.”

Crazy Hand: GoT iT, bRo!

Master Hand: *sigh*

Meanwhile, Hunt the Dog sat right outside the arena still waiting to be petted by anyone.

Chapter Text

Popo: C’mon we gotta get the group back together!

Toon Link: I’m not gonna let people treat me like just a kid anymore. Like, I saved the dang world!

Ness: Yeah, but, you get to hang out with people who understand you!

Toon Link: Maybe, but I don’t want to be in some group called the ‘kid’s club.’ That sounds really condescending.

Nana: Would you join our group if we changed the name?

Toon Link: I… guess so.

Lucas: Then, what about the kid’s corner?

Toon Link: That has the same problem!

Popo: What about the Cool Crew.

Young Link: That sounds immature. What about… Heroic… Heroes?

Toon Link: No. How about… the Under 18 Crew! Now that’s mature!

Ness: I… guess I’m good with it.

Nana and Popo Simulatiously: Us too!

Lucas: Me three! Or… Uhm… I guess four.

Young Link: It isn’t the best, but it’ll work.

Ness: I guess it’s official then. We’re now the under 18 crew!

Zelda looked at them from a distance.

Zelda: Is anyone going to tell them that that’s a terrible name?

Link shook his head no.

So far the first meeting of the Reptilian Club was going awfully. Nobody had anything to say to each other.

Greninja: Ugh… I knew this was a bad idea.

Kaptain K. Rool: Of course it was a bad idea; I mean for God’s sake King came up with it. I swear that moron wouldn’t know a good idea if it shot him in the face.

Greninja: Wait, but you technically share the same body as King, so you’re the club leader. Which means you can disband it!

Kaptain: Oh yeah… I could! This group is now disbanded! Everyone leave now.

A sigh of relief swept throughout the room. King couldn’t force them to be friends just because they were all reptilian.

As everyone walked out of the club room Greninja started to chat with Kaptain.

Greninja: Thanks for the save there.

Kaptain: Oh, it’s nothing. My brother does stuff like this all the time.

Greninja: Yeah, seems like he has a good heart, but just isn’t exactly… nice.

Kaptain: Yeah, he can be kind of a jerk sometimes and he ain’t exactly bright, but he’s my bro.

Greninja: Yeah

There was a short awkward silence.

Greninja: So… why does the Rool family hate the DK family so much?

Kaptain: Oh… that… uhm… my brother thinks he’s a king and one time, he… tried to take over DK’s Island.

Greninja: Oh… uh…

Kaptain: I tried to get back at ‘em for beating up my brother, but they just beat me up too.

Greninja: Uhm… sorry, I didn’t know there was such a history between you two.

Kaptain: It’s fine. Besides, that’s all in the past. Mostly. So don’t worry about it.

Greninja: Oh.. Ok! It’s been nice meeting you Kaptain K. Rool!

Kaptain: Oh please, call me Kaptain.

Announcer: STOCK BATTLE! 1V1! SONIC VS. CORRIN!

Sonic sped into the battle as cocky as ever.

Until Male Corrin burst into battle by transforming into a dragon… thing and spewed water out of the ground.

Oh shit.

Male Corrin: I will not go easy on you!

Sonic: Well, ain’t that just great.

This metal looking dude was now charging at him spinning his sword around everywhere which splashed water out of it.

Ok, it’s OK. You’ve dealt with water monsters before. After all, you beat Perfect Chaos! But, that time you had your friends to help you out. You got nobody on your side this time.

Sonic sped around running away as much as possible barely getting in any hits. By the end of the fight Corrin had taken all 3 of Sonic’s stocks while Corrin only had only 1 taken from him.

After the fight, Corrin could see Sonic shaking in place. It didn’t seem like he was trying to get the water off him, more just shaking out of seemingly fear. Corrin approached him.

Male Corrin: Hey, uh… you okay?

Sonic slightly jumped and then quickly turned around. He then swapped back to a snarky tone of voice.

Sonic: Of course, why wouldn’t I be?!

Male Corrin: Oh, it’s just… you didn’t seem like your usual self out there.

Sonic: What d’ya mean?

Sonic asked despite knowing exactly what he meant.

Male Corrin: You were taunting the enemy the entire time in your last fight. Yet, you never uttered a word to me.

Sonic: Eh… I just wasn’t in the mood for it, today.

Male Corrin: But last tournament, me and the other Corrin seemed to be the only ones you went easy on.

Sonic: …

Male Corrin: So, why do you keep doing that?

Sonic started to talk in a quiet tone that felt unusual coming out of him.

Sonic: …I’m scared, k?

Male Corrin: Wait… but I’m just some dude, you literally won against Bayonetta a few days ago and she’s an actual witch!

Sonic went back to his usual sassy tone.

Sonic: You’re also a dragon.

Male Corrin: Well… yeah, but… uh… recently you won against Ridley!

Sonic: Yeah, true.

Male Corrin: So… why are you scared of me?

Sonic: Surprisingly it doesn’t have to do with your dragon-y stuff. It’s more just… water.

Corrin looked at him with a confused look. This guy has fought and won against gods and he’s scared of water?! The words burst out of his mouth despite him not wanting them to.

Male Corrin: Why are you scared of that?!

Sonic shot a glare at him.

Sonic: Drowning. Multiple Times.

Oh.

Oh shit.

Corrin had a stunned look on his face. He certainly wasn’t expecting an answer like that!

Male Corrin: Oh… I’m so sorry.

Sonic: Eh, think nothin’ of it. Ya didn’t know.

Male Corrin: I hope we can… remain acquaintances after this.

Sonic: No need to be so formal, buddy!

Sonic gave Corrin a small smirk.

It’s difficult to have 2 people in a group with the same exact name. Especially when the 2 people have the same exact first, middle, and last names and their only distinguishing feature is being different genders. Especially if the two people with that same name hate each other.

Male Corrin: Corrin… just… just shut up.

Female Corrin: Why because I’m not a filthy traitor?!

Male Corrin: Wha- I’m the traitor?! I am not the one who abandoned my original family!

Female Corrin: Your “original family” didn’t raise you at all! I at least tried to make my country better instead of just running away!

Male Corrin: It’s not running away from my family, those fuckers kidnapped me!

Female Corrin: How dare you call them that!

Male Corrin: What are you going to do about it?

Female Corrin punched him directly in the face. She began to walk away as she uttered something about him being pathetic that he could only partially understand.

Maybe she was right. His new family wasn’t exactly the best. After all, his new family tried to force him into incest and his old family didn’t do that.

Male Corrin: You’re right.

The other Corrin stopped walking away. She turned around with a baffled look on her face.

Female Corrin: What?

Male Corrin: I said that you’re right

Female Corrin: Oh, so you admit it.

Male Corrin: Yeah, my original family was pretty awful to me. I mean, they even tried to force me into incest multiple times.

Female Corrin: Uhm… My family tried to do that too.

Male Corrin: What. And you were trying to defend them?!

Female Corrin: Hey, you were trying to defend your family too!

Male Corrin:I was more just trying to defend my choice.

Female Corrin: Yeah… I guess I was too.

Mario was watching the conversation out of the corner of his eye from afar. Suddenly he decided to walk up to the two of them.

Dr. Mario: May I recommend my therapy sessions?

Female Corrin: The hell’s that?

Chapter Text

Falco: So, in other words you brought a genocidal maniac back to life “universal representation”

Master Hand: Yes.

Falco: WHY THE HELL DID YOU DO THAT WE’RE ALREADY FROM THAT UNIVERSE!

Master Hand: Yes, but we need a certain amount of characters to represent how popular your universe is.

Falco: SO, BRING PEOPLE HERE WHO AREN’T ANDROSS!

Master Hand: Sorry, but we brought people here based on how well known they are, not on whether they’re a good person.

Falco: GOD, WHY CAN I NEVER REASON WITH YOU BASTARDS?!

Master Hand: If you keep up that language, there will be consequences.

Falco: HOW ABOUT YOU WORRY ABOUT THE CONSEQUENCES OF BRINGING BACK A GENOCIDAL MANIAC!

Master Hand: *sigh* Master Core please escort him out of the room.

A swarm of black particles dragged Falco out of the room kicking and screaming.

This was one of the many, many complaints they’d gotten for reviving villains.

Falco got thrown out of the Hand’s office.

Marth: Anything?

Falco: Nope, they’re still refusing to get rid of the villains.

Chrom: But why?! Why are they reviving the villians that we worked so hard to beat?!

Falco: He muttered some nonsense about how the most well-known beings from our universes being brought here.

Marth: Well of course they’re well known, they killed so many people!

Fox: Ugh… I guess it’s a problem in their system.

Falco: Yeah, but they revived genocidal maniacs from our worlds, but he doesn’t revive Tabuu because they had to deal with ‘em.

From a distance, Mii Swordfighter watched on.

Mii Swordfighter: Actually, they brought Tabuu back to life too.

Falco: WHAT THE FUCK?! I figured they at least wouldn’t revive someone who took control of their mind, but him too?!

Mii Swordfighter: I guess not?

Fox: These guys are waaaaaay too forgiving.

Ridley and Samus stared at each other from across the room. Until Ridley piped up.

Ridley: I’m here… and there’s nothing you can do about it.

Samus: I figured you were finally dead, but I guess I should’ve known better.

Ridley: Yeah, I ALWAYS find a way to come back.

Samus: …

Ridley: What, cat got your tongue?

Seeing Samus in this depressed state made Pikachu sad. He had to protect his friend!
Pikachu ran up to block Ridley from approaching.

Ridley: Oh? What have we got here? A little mousey trying to play hero?

Samus: Pikachu! No!

Ridley swung at Pikachu.

Only to be stopped by an electric shock. Ridley stepped back in surprise.

Ridley: Ugh… I suppose I’ll have to dispose of you two some other time.

Ridley slowly walked away, formulating plans on how to deal with the electric rat.

Samus: Thanks, buddy.

Pikachu: Pika Pi!
