Smash Bros: Revolving Shadows

Chapter 1:

Everyone knows the epic of the Subspace Emissary. The tale of Subspace's great heroes, of Mario, Kirby, and Link, and how they defeated the great Tabuu, the scourge on our earth.

Every inhabitant of this expansive land knows the aftermath, of how different characters came to the area, of strange mercenaries, powerful dragon warriors, multiplying robotic soldiers, shadowy thieves and adorable little puppies. They wanted to train and to fight, and what a fight they got indeed.

These characters however, brought something different as well, a new and old group of evil who took Tabuu's power and began to harness it for their own nefarious good.

But this story begins earlier, much earlier, in a secret meeting of the land's greatest villains, now decrepit and in hiding.

An odd gathering, that's about to get some special visitors.

*******

The room is loud.

Everyone is yelling, screeching, making vocal noises from their throats. There is so much noise, in fact, it takes a magical blast from the head villain to shut them up.

The ragtag group glares at Ganondorf, famed nemesis of the hero of Hyrule Link, who is drumming his hands on the table. He does not look happy.

Included in the ragtag party is Bowser and his son Bowser Jr., Mario's sworn enemies and the King and Prince of the Koopa Troopas and Ridley, the violent alien dragon and the creature that haunts Samus Aran's nightmares.

Also at the meeting are Wolf O'Donnell, Fox Mccloud's rival and galactic mercenary, and Dark Pit, the angel boy Pit's shadowy counterpart. They, while not completely evil are present for roughly the same reason.

To watch the carnage.

The arguments don't die down, in fact they get louder and angrier. Roars and growls echo through the musty room. Ganondorf grunts, and slams his hands into the table, incredibly angry.

There is a sudden knocking on the locked door, which quiets everyone down. No one stands up to answer it though, and the knocking continues.

Until the things on the other end starting blowing the door down.

Three figures stand in the destroyed doorway. The first, to the villains' surprise, was the nemesis to the blue hedgehog Sonic, Dr. Ivo Robotnik, also called Eggman. He clearly used his laser to blow the door down.

Right next to him was Dr. Wiley, Mega Man's archenemy. While missing his robot masters at the moment, he grins like a madman.

The final member leans against Eggman's machine, a character not exactly known for hanging around with genius professors. Sephiroth, the archrival and sworn adversary of Cloud Strife, shoots the rest of the villains an indiscernible look.

Absolutely no one has any idea what is going on and the room nearly dissolves into chaos again, until Bowser stands up and roars at the newcomers. He wants to know why they're here, as they hadn't been invited to any of the tournaments.

Eggman claps his hands together, excited to share his announcement, and places a clear box down on the table. The villains strain their heads to look at what was inside.

Strangely, the contents of the box shimmered with mutiple rainbow colors, confusing most of the characters.

Most of them, except Ganondorf, who recognized it immediately as part of the wings of Tabuu, the original attacker of Subspace. He scoffs, and slams it away.

The rest of the villains push Ganondorf out of the way and eagerly crowd around the three newcomers, waiting for a show of force and power.

They did deliver.
