New Smash Bros Interviews: Spec. Reveal Chapter 1

*tap, tap, tap*

“Hello?  Is this thing on?”

“It’s on, Link,” came the answer in an annoyed tone.

“Well excuse me for not knowing how to use electronic devices as well as you can,” said Link as he cast the zero suit clad bounty hunter a glare.  He then turned back to the microphone. “Now then, we are here today as the first batch of characters have been announced for the next installment of Super Smash Bros.”

“You mean we’ll finally find out which of us got in?” questioned Saki.

Saki and everyone else who had been interviewed so far were gathered in the auditorium of the Smash Manor, waiting for the results.  Up on the stage stood Link, Samus, and all of the other official Smash Fighters.

“That’s right, but keep in mind that the entire roster hasn’t been revealed yet.  So if you’re name hasn’t been called that does not mean you did not get in,” explained Link.

“Just get on with the results, elf boy,” said Magnus, looking quite bored.

“Yeah!  Some of us want to know now!” declared Nester.

Link let out an annoyed sigh. “Very well.  First I shall announce the returning fighters revealed so far.  Obviously Mario, Pikachu, Kirby, and myself will return.”

“Poyo!”

“Pika!”

“Figures the little rat would get in again, nya,” muttered Meowth.

Link then continued. “Also returning will be Donkey Kong, Samus, Fox, Pit…”

“Yahoo!” exclaimed the young angel with a happy grin.

“Don’t let this go to your head, Pit!” shouted Viridi.

“…And Bowser,” finished the Hylian swordsman.

“Way to go, Dad!” exclaimed Bowser Jr. as he waved a flag with Bowser’s face on it.

“Bwah hah hah hah!  Was there any doubt I’d get in?  I am the great King Bowser Koopa after all!”

“Of course most of us were hoping for the opposite,” said Samus with a smirk.  This earned her a glare from the large Koopa.

Link continued to keep a fight from breaking out. “Anyway, that’s it for now on returning fighters.  Next we have the new Nintendo Smash Fighters…which apparently there are only two at this point in time.”

“So who got in?” questioned Andy.  He, like all of the other Nintendo characters there wanted to know.

Link looked a little nervous. “Well…the first of the two new Nintendo Smash Fighters is…the Villager.”

It was silent as the new Smash Fighter walked on stage.  Villager was a young boy with short brown hair, a triangular nose, and wore black shorts with a red t-shirt that had a number one on the front.

“What’s up with this?!  He didn’t even apply!” exclaimed an angry Ethan.  Some of the other Nintendo applicants didn’t like this either.

“Technically he did…just not here,” said Samus. “Apparently applications were also being taken at headquarters and that’s where Villager applied.

“That’s true!  I didn’t mean to cause any trouble though.  I’m sorry for any inconvenience I’ve caused,” said Villager with an apologetic bowed.

The Nintendo applicants seemed to accept this, but they still didn’t like it.

“So who is the other Nintendo character who got in?” asked Rick Wheeler.  When Link glanced away, he grimaced. “It’s another person who didn’t apply here, isn’t it?”

“…Yes.  Allow me to introduce to you the second new Nintendo Smash Fighter, the Wii Fit Trainer!”

It was silent once again when the next new Smash Fighter walked onto stage.  It was a woman who appeared to be similar in both age and height to Samus.  She had pure white skin and gray hair and eyes.  Her clothes consisted of a blue tank top and form fitting gray yoga pants.  She was also barefoot.

“…This one I’m okay with,” said Ethan with a perverted smile on his face.  This earned him some deadpan looks from the other applicants.

“I must say that it is a pleasure to be given this honor,” stated Wii Fit Trainer with a smile.

“Although it’s still questioning on how you got in the first place,” muttered Samus, though Wii Fit Trainer heard.

“Jealous, Samus?” questioned Wii Fit Trainer as she turned to the bounty hunter with a smirk.

This made Samus twitch in annoyance.  She turned to the yoga instructor with a glare. “And just why would I be jealous?”

“You’re no longer in the spotlight as everyone’s favorite Smash Girl, while I am.  Plus there’s the fact that I don’t need fancy gadgets to be able to fight.”

An angry Samus tried to lunge at Wii Fit Trainer, but was held back by Donkey Kong and Captain Falcon while Snake kept the yoga instructor from going after Samus.

“Alright!  Cat fight!” exclaimed Ethan, only to be knocked out by a punch to the head by May.

“Is he always like that?” asked Lucina.

“Unfortunately,” grumbled the Hoenn native.

“Can you two knock it off?!  We’re trying to do something here!” yelled Link as he glared at Samus and Wii Fit Trainer.

“She started it!” declared Samus, pointing at Wii Fit Trainer, who merely stuck her tongue out in return.

Link grimaced before turning back to the microphone. “Moving along and ignoring the two children, I shall now announce the third-party character who got in as a Smash Fighter.”

The third-party applicants perked up.  Each and every one of them was hoping they got in.

“Heh, this is in the bag,” stated Travis Touchdown.

“I wouldn’t be too sure.  Only one of us got in and even then we don’t know if he’ll be the only one.  There still could be another one announced at a later date,” explained Cloud.

“I’m sure I’m the one who got in.  Who wouldn’t want someone like me in their game?” questioned Ivy Valentine with a sultry smirk, making some of the men faintly blush and turn away.

The Hylian cleared his throat to regain everyone’s attention. “The newest third-party Smash Fighter is…Mega Man!”

As some of the other applicants were congratulating him, the Blue Bomber was shocked and stood there wide-eyed.

“I…I got in?”

“Sure did!  Congratulations, kid!” exclaimed Joshua with a grin.

“Yes, congratulations, Rock-san,” said Takamaru.

“I got in.  I got in!” exclaimed Mega Man, throwing his arms up in the air in his excitement. “Hahaha!  Suck it, Capcom!”

While Mega Man was celebrating, the other Capcom applicants were a little disappointed.  Some – mainly Leon, Ryu Bateson, and Viewtiful Joe – were even crying tears of sorrow.

“It seems I will have to go elsewhere to find a challenge then,” stated Ryu.

“It’s not that bad, guys,” said Phoenix Wright.

“Easy for you to say.  You’ve got a game coming out,” said Bateson, as he, Joe, and Leon narrowed their eyes at the lawyer.  Phoenix backed away slowly so as to avoid possible injury.

Amaterasu let out a soft whine, showing her disappointment.

With Mega Man, he was thanking Link, Samus, and the other Smash Fighters for giving him the opportunity.  As he was doing this, a very loud voice got everyone’s attention.

“I wouldn’t be celebrating just yet, you little blue dweeb!”

Mega Man’s mouth became a thin line as he turned around to see his arch rival stomp his way towards him.

“Bass, what are you doing here?”

The black and gold armored robot glared down at the Light Number. “I went to your place to issue a challenge and that cream puff you call a sister said you were here.  Now fight me!”

“I’m in the middle of something, Bass!”

“Do I look like I care?!  If anyone’s going to fight and beat you, it’s me!”

Mega Man just gave him a deadpan look before he turned and walked away. “I don’t have time for this?”

“H-Hey!  Get back here!”

“Hey, Mega Man!  You do need an Assist Trophy,” said Link. “Why not just have Bass as yours?”

That got the two robots’ attention.

“What are you talking about?” demanded Bass as he glared at the swordsman.

“Just as I said.  You could be an Assist Trophy in SSB4.  Not like it wouldn’t be impossible, since Snake and Sonic’s rival are Assist Trophies already.  Since you’re Mega Man’s rival, that would make you a shoe-in!”

“…Would it mean I get to fight Mega Man?” questioned Bass.

“Yes.”

“I’m in!” exclaimed the Wily Number.  He then turned to Mega Man with a grin that promised pain. “See you one the battlefield, dweeb!”

With that, Bass teleported out, leaving a stunned Mega Man.

“Why did you give him that idea?!” demanded Mega Man as he turned to Link.

“Hey, at least it got him to leave.  Besides, regardless of what I said, we don’t know for sure if he does have a chance.”

“I just hope it doesn’t come to that.  Who knows what he’d do if he did become an Assist Trophy,” replied the Blue Bomber.

The thought was just terrifying.
