[Toonie's POV]

I looked down at my invitation to the fourth annual Smash tournament. "I wonder if there'll be any more newcomers this year..." I spoke to myself. This was my second year going to the Smash tournament, and as excited as I was that I was invited again, I also wanted more people to challenge.

"Toon Link! You-a made it!" I heard a familiar plumber's voice. Mario wrapped an arm around me, "So-a glad you could-a come again!"

It's like his accent got thicker from last year... I thought. "Glad to be back." I said, "Say, uh, will there be more challengers coming? I mean, I enjoyed last year's Smash, but it would get kinda boring battling the same people from last year..." I was a bit afraid to say this since, y'know, Mario was a direct link to the Creators. One wrong move and who knows what could happen...

But Mario didn't seem like the kind of guy who would abuse his powers like that. Most of the Mushroom Kingdom, even Bowser, doesn't even seem like they would do that. I learned from last year that we only come here for good clean fun. Which is fine with me, since I just about wet myself from thinking about battling Donkey Kong...

"Why, I'm-a glad you asked!" Mario answered, "We actually-a dropped a few players from-a last year to make-a room for new ones this-a year." Wait, drop players? Sure, I wanted new ones but to drop others from the ballet?

"Must you rub it in?!" Someone growled. I remember that voice... Ness, was it? He wasn't dropped, was he? No, he wouldn't be here if he were dropped...

"Don't-a mind him..." Mario said, then leaned down and whispered, "He's a bit upset about a certain someone having to be dropped..."

"Who?" I whispered back.

"You mean you haven't heard? We dropped Lucas. And Ness isn't very happy about it..." Lucas... I remember him. He and Ness came from the same game, and they rarely separated from each other... Heck, sometimes they would even go "train" together by themselves, but it was pretty obvious what they really did... So Ness was mad that Lucas was dropped? Huh... It probably hurts him, not having his best friend(?) around... I would probably hate if my mate got taken away, too... Mental Note: Be careful when battling Ness...

"Oh!" Mario said, "Speaking of-a newcomers, here comes the last-a one right now!" I followed his eyes to see a small boy -- finally, someone smaller than me! -- running towards us.

"Sorry I'm late..." The boy panted when he made it to us.

"No-a problem! Welcome to-a Smash, Villager!" Villager? Was that really his name?

He let out a puff of air, then looked around. "Wow...so this is Smash..." It wasn't perspective; he really did look younger than me. Sounded younger, too...

"Yes, would you-a like a tour?"

"YES!" Villager yelled, then cleared his throat, "I mean, yes." This was what I was up against? Ah geez... Might as well get ahead of the game since I'm here...

"Mind if I join?" I chimed in.

"Ooohhh, you must be Link!" Villager said, then began poking my face, "Say, your eyes are bigger than. I thought they would be..." Speak for yourself...

I swatted his hand away from me, "Heheh, I'm actually Toon Link!" I bent down to where we were the same height, "So you're one of the newcomers, huh?"
