FINALLY, A.P.E.X.² is on Friendcodes.com. It's been about six months since I finished my longest fanfic EVER, Super Smash Bros. A.P.E.X., and now is the sequel that quite a few of you have been waiting for. Have fun.
A.P.E.X.² FINALLY begins again, my precious readers! Was almost six months too long to wait?
Get ready for more action, excitement, and randomness than ever before! Here we go!
------------------------------------------------------------------- Six months ago our World saw something we never thought we could see from such united fragments. We saw war – war between us, the O.F., and the joint DL and Subspace Army. In a way, the DL had already started to tear us apart; yet, in the midst of war, they pulled us back together. Now the DL has been dismantled. Tabuu, the Subspace leader, has disappeared just as mysteriously as he appeared. Where is he now? I don’t know; maybe it doesn’t matter. At least, right now it doesn’t. So what are we up to right now? My partner Sheik and I are, along with most of the rest of the O.F. body, helping to repair our damaged world. The Smash Committee has stepped up to assist us, but I don’t think I like them just yet. Nevertheless, we have work to do. This is our World, after all.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sheik: No, no, NO! Over HERE!
(Sheik is leading around several O.F. underlings in the process of cleaning up the All-Star Park [Remember the one from Melee?]. Several other well-known O.F. fighters are helping around, as well; however, Sheik is technically the leader in this situation.)
Cpt. Falcon: Sheeeeeeiiiiiiiik!! I’ve already tried moving this fountain around! It’s too heavy!
Sheik: Captain, I thought you were strong.
Cpt. Falcon: I am…
Sheik: And this’d really help poor, little me out.
Cpt. Falcon: I WOULD do anything for you, my love…
Sheik: Then MOVE THE BLASTED THING ALREADY!
Cpt. Falcon: *yelps* All right! All right! It’d be easier if Snake would help me out!!
Sheik: What the… SNAKE!
(Snake and Samus are chatting not too far away from where Sheik is standing. Snake hears her call and reluctantly goes to see why she’s calling.)
Snake: What now?
Sheik: Uh, help your teammate over there a little, huh?
GET TO WORK!
Snake: YOU’RE not doing anything!!
Sheik: I’m supervisor, nincompoop.
Snake: That’s no—
Samus: Guys, guys.
(Samus is currently wearing just her Zero Suit.)
Samus: Calm down. Snake, please go help Captain Falcon over there.
Snake: *strokes chin* All right, Samus.
(Snake leaves to go assist the struggling Captain Falcon.)
Samus: It’s been half a year and you two still aren’t getting along?
Sheik: Nope.
Samus: *face palm* Why do I even…
Sheik: *pats Samus on shoulder* It’s not your fault, Sammy.
Samus: *glares*
Sheik: I more or less do well with everyone else. You know, except for—
Samus: Don’t say it.
Sheik: Huh.
Samus: We all know you like him.
Sheik: LIES. Anyway, I’d like for you two go message the SC and see when they’re going to get those explosives we requested.
Samus: Will do.
(Samus walks off, smiling.)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
(Meanwhile, deep in some unknown area…)
?????: I need you to find us…
????: Yeah, yeah, the rest of us!
?????: Yes…
??????: I imagine it won’t be especially hard. We’re always stalking around somewhere near… them.
?????: Indeed.
????: We won’t take long, boss. *points to ??????* You. Let’s go.
??????: You aren’t my mother!
So long, sir.
?????: Be careful…
-------------------------------------------------------------------
THERE is the first post! Kind of boring, maybe, but there’s more to come!
Don't expect it to be long initially, kids.

On we go, my sweet readers! It’s still in recap mode, but this post should be more intriguing.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wolf: Did they hire you at all?
Wario: Uh, no.
Wolf: I didn't think so.
Wario: How about you?
Wolf: Not at all. I guess that godforsaken war really screwed us over.
Wario: Nobody will hire us now... And worse yet, whenever I try to fight, some O.F. LOSER joins up and is certain to call friends to bully me. Almost makes me wish I were one of those trophies.
Wolf: I know how you feel. *drinks a soda* Maybe we should give up and try being wanderers.
Wario: Not in The Wilds?
Wolf: Why not? *sigh*
(Bowser approaches the two sulkers as they continue to drink flavored carbonated water - soda, that is.)
Bowser: MOVE OUT OF THE WAY!
Wolf: What the?
Wario: Bowser!! What's a failure like you doing here?!
Bowser: Shut up, you two! I have some news.
(Wolf and Wario are somewhat interested. What have they to lose?)
Bowser: How are the rest of the former DL members doing? How are you guys?
Wolf: Did you come here to make polite chitchat?
Bowser: Answer the question!
Wolf: Life sucks. Doesn't matter who, life sucks for us.
Wario: True that.
Bowser: So I figure you guys would do anything for something to fill your sucky, sucky lives?
Wolf: I guess.
Wario: Maybe.
Bowser: Here's a proposition for ya.
Tabuu wants revenge.
(Wolf and Wario are quite curious now.)
Wolf: After THAT flop? What makes him think he can do it better this time?
Bowser: Listen here... Subspace is still crawling with potential soldiers, plus the R.O.B.s...
Wario: What about them?
Bowser: Many of them are there, in Subspace. He's been waiting.
See, our first war was a serious war, but it was only part one. Tabuu tested the O.F., and now he knows that he needs more power.
And we could definitely use our old teammates back. What do you guys say?
(Wolf and Wario ponder over this. It’s a hefty decision, but they have nothing better to do.)
Wolf: Eh, why not? For old times’ sake. Plus, we have nothing better to do.
Wario: Yeah.
Bowser: *grins* Oh, is THIS good news. Spread the word along with me, why don’t you?
Wario: See, we’re-a already getting things to do!
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Meta Knight: TEN!
Ike: FIVE!
MK: TEN!
Ike: FIVE!
MK: TEN!
Ike: FI-
Samus: WHY are you two yelling randomly?
Ike: We’re trying to decide how many extra Smash Balls we want to keep inside our room.
MK: Ike is a cocky warrior, if you couldn’t tell.
Ike: No; I just think we don’t need that many.
MK: Better prepared than dead.
Ike: AWGH, I don’t take orders from people like you, with your stupidly speedy blade and… *continues muttering*
MK: Sigh. I shall see you two later, Ike. Samus.
Samus: See you.
Before you go, Ike, have you seen Sheik around?
Ike: I believe she went underground. Have YOU seen SNAKE around?
Samus: *eyes open wider* Why do you want to know?
Ike: *smiles* Ah, don’t worry about. Go find Sheik.
(Samus ventures to the underground laboratory.
She quickly finds Sheik in R.O.B.’s station.)
Sheik: …I know, I know. We’re trying to help you out here; just give me some time.
R.O.B.: *sighs deeply* IF YOU INSIST.
Samus: Hi, guys. What’s wrong with R.O.B.?
Sheik: Oh, he’s—
R.O.B.: I AM CONFLICTED, LONELY, DESOLATE, NOT TO MENTION—
Sheik: You get the idea.
*whispers to Samus* We’re trying to find some trace of another R.O.B. that may have been left behind in order to get him a comfortable partner. He’s fallen from power a long way, need not remind you.
Samus: Ah… Poor R.O.B. Keep up the good work, though; you’re our best Coordinator, R.O.B.
R.O.B.: ACKNOWLEDGED… THANK YOU, SAMUS.
But anyway, Sheik, I have some news to pass on.
Sheik: Oh, no.
Samus: Hm?
Sheik: Gray Fox isn’t back from work in The Wilds already, is he? *turns head* I was just starting to enjoy it…
Samus: No, that’s not it.
Sheik: Ah, good.
Samus: *speaks quietly* I saw Bowser earlier today. He was talking to some former DL members. Why, I don’t know.
(Sheik’s face shows that she is clearly shocked.)
Sheik: WHAT? *whispers* Bowser and Ganondorf disappeared six months ago; I know it’s nothing compared to Meta Knight’s disappearance, but for them to come back after such a length of time can’t be good. We may have to get Gray Fox back here after all… Ugh…
Samus: Oh, stop. You know you love Gray Fox. *begins walking away*
Sheik: NO I DON’T. DO NOT SEND THOSE LIES, SAMUS! ARE YOU EVEN LISTENING?!
(Evidently, she is not.)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Ganondorf: Bowser’s already started spreading the word, sir. I know that he has at least two former DL members on our side again. He works pretty well for acting like such a child sometimes.
Tabuu: Needless to remind you, Bowser, some of the powerful fighters in this World are children.
Ganondorf: Yeah… but Bowser is a long shot.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Even DL/Subspace members talk trash about each other. Ah, well. See you later!
