Super Smash Bros. A.P.E.X.

[Hiroko]

Gosh, I enjoy posting my fanfic here!

-----------------------------------------------------
(Sheik is at Smashville.)
Sheik: *sitting down* Resetti!... Resetti!... Resetti!... Resetti!... Resetti!... Resetti!...
Resetti: AAAGH! Stop callin' my name! I heard ya!
Sheik: I know.
Resetti: Wha- Well, then. Why'd you need me?
Sheik: I have a problem with a new member.
Resetti: Let me guess.
Sheik: I knew you would know.
Anyway, I think he joined only to get close to Samus. I'm not trying to control her, but I know that right now all that she is commited to is the O.F. and me.
Resetti: Then, just ignore his actions. Don't help 'im at all if you think it's right.
Sheik: Or I could force him away?
Resetti: "Any O.F. member cannot harrass or exclude another O.F. member or oneself without clear evidence."
Sheik: Oh, yeah...And I have no proof that Snake has done anything bad to me or Samus.
Resetti: Right. So, what can you do?
Sheik: *rubs head* Do what I was hired to do.
Resetti: Sounds like a plan!
Sheik: Yeah...Thanks, again.
Resetti: Good! Now...
SCRAM!
(Sheik flies off.)
(Sheik returns to Hyrule Temple.)
Sheik: So, I've got nothing.
Oh, my old friend. What ever happened to you?...
*thinks of Meta Knight*
(We were the most feared off all the fighters, once upon a time. Since you disappeared...I was left alone. It's always lonely at the top. ...At least I have Samus now. She is a remarkable woman, partner, and friend.
But still, I can't help but think of you time to time, old friend.)
Sheik: *opens misty eyes* I'll be fine. Perhaps I can find out what happened to Meta Knight one day. *stands up and receives a signal*
Samus: Sheik!
Sheik: Yes.
Samus: Please, come quickly! We've been called for am important meeting.
Sheik: Calm down.
Samus: Not everyone is as calm as you. Hurry!
Sheik: *sighs* All right. I'm coming.
(Sheik leaves the temple to head to O.F. headquaters. Once she enters the meetimg room, it is hugely full. Samus, however, saved her a seat.)
Sheik: You've any idea of what's going on?
Samus: Something odd, to say the least.
(Behind them is Sheik's worst nightmare.)
Cpt. Falcon: Just joined today and something has already gone wrong!
Snake: You don't know that.
Cpt. Falcon: What if this has to do with the...
*whispers* DL?
Snake: Then say nothing about it.
Cpt. Falcon: I'll--
Ohhh, HI, SHEIK!
Sheik: Quiet.
Samus: *standing by Ike* How's it going, Ike?
Ike: So-so. I just want to know why we've been called on short notice.
Samus: Oh, I have a question. Snake keeps looking in my direction. It's creeping me out.
Ike: *shrugs* Maybe he's looking at the design on your back.
Samus: Yeah, sure.
(The O.F. leader comes up to a podium.)
Leader: Welcome, fighters and staff!
*Cheers*
Leader: Today, I have a very important subject to bring up. It would seem as though some interesting creatures, called "Subspace" monsters, are popping up in the rest of the world. As you all may know, these areas do not have stations, so I'll ask some of my esteemed members to check some parts of the world.
Any volunteers?
(The crowd is silent. Then...)
Samus: Sir, my partner and I will take a first look.
*Cheers*
Leader: One of my greatest teams! I expect nothing less of you two!
Sheik: We do what we must!
*Even more Cheers*
Leader: Give these two applause! I will station you to the Jungle area!
(Sheik and Samus walk up the row to the stage. They are comissioned to three Smash Balls, a Holder Belt, and two message wristbands.)
Leader: When can you leave??
Samus: *exchange glances with Sheik*
Immediately.
*Everyone cheers*
Sheik: Let's go NOW. How about that?
Leader: Will do, fearless women!
(Sheik and Samus run down the row as people cheer. Snake watches them.)
Snake: Hey, Falcon, we should station ourselves, as well.
Cpt. Falcon: Why?
Snake: There's a possibility that we will run into them if we do.
Cpt. Falcon: Right!
(Sheik and Samus head down the road to the Jungle.)
-----------------------------------------------------
Things will be interesting from here on in. See you soon!

[Shivam]

When will the Ice Climbers come in :P, oh and I love it still.

[Wolfie456]

i might have read all these already on that site in your sig
but these never get old

[Hiroko]

I'm going to ask early...
I'm looking to see if anyone wants to offer making a tag (signature) for A.P.E.X. If you could, PM me or drop me a visitor message.
Any offers are appreciated! I'll pay with karma.

[Hiroko]

Here we goooo... Here we go...~
Now, this post is part one of two posts, so I'll be posting next shortly after this one.

I had some complications with posting a new post. FINALLY, on with the show.
-----------------------------------------------------
(Sheik and Samus finally reach the jungle station. They have been out there for about an hour or so, looking for any information and abmormalities.)
Samus: Remind me of how long it's been since we got here.
Sheik: About...
One hour and two minutes.
Samus: Oh, that was fast.
*sits on a log* And so far, nothing.
Sheik: Patience...
Samus: Is a virtue, I know. I KNOW.
Sheik: Well, let's keep walking.
Samus: Why?
Sheik: We're bored. The lake's not far away. We should visit it. Who knows? We might find some clues there.
Samus: It's a stretch... But alright.
(They keep walking...until Sheik falls off a cliff.)
Sheik: Bottoms below!
Samus: Come back!! *jumps off*
Sheik: *feet running against cliff wall* Invigorating!
Samus: You're such a goof.
Sheik: You think so? *jumps, tackles Samus, and they both fall apart*
(By the Lake area...)
Snake: Lucky us, don't you think? *throws a pebble across the Lake*
Cpt. Falcon: I'll say. But in the thrity-four minutes we've been here, nothing has happened.
(...Silence. Cpt. Falcon throws his hands out in frustration.)
Cpt. Falcon: AHHH! THIS LAKE IS MOTIONLESS! IT HAS TO BE DEAD!
Snake: Dead...
Cpt. Falcon: Yeah, dead, Shakespeare.
Snake: Who knows? Maybe an abnormality will show--
(A Mite appears.)
Snake: Up.
Cpt. Falcon: Hey, what is it?
Snake: I don't know. *picks it up by the foot* I think it's trying...Really hard.
Cpt. Falcon: Trying to be CUTE? If so, it's working...
Snake: *drops the Mite*
(The Mite, annoyed, whistles and many more come running out.)
Cpt. Falcon: Oh, no! Run, Snake! *dives into lake*
(The Mites are all removed by a Needle Storm. Guess who!)
Sheik: We thought we might find some abnormality here.
Snake: Sheik! What are you... (Wait a moment. I should play dumb so that Sheik won't know that we WANTED to be commissioned here! She'd kill me if she knew.)
Samus: If only you knew our code here in the O.F. Those creatures were about to attack you right?
Snake: ...
Sheik: And outnumbered, as well. Where is the Captain?
(Cpt. Falcon jumps out in a shower of beauty.)
Cpt. Falcon: Fair maiden... It is I! Captain Falcon of the F-Zero!!
Sheik: I'm ecstatic.
Samus: Diagnosis report.
Cpt. Falcon: Huh?
Samus: You heard me.
Cpt. Falcon: If I don't-
Samus: I OUTRANK you. So answer!
Cpt. Falcon: ...
Status report!
It's been quiet here since we arrived forty minutes ago!
Samus: Same with the Jungle. SO far, it's a flop.
Sheik: Except for those little guys. They...tried really hard.
*Rumbling*
Cpt. Falcon: Hey, what is...
-----------------------------------------------------
Cliffhangers ahoy! I'll post sooner.

[Hiroko]

-----------------------------------------------------
(Rumbling stops.)
Samus: What the...
Sheik: Yeah. It must have been something in the water.
Snake: Then it must be still there.
(Rumbles occur again, but stronger this time.)
Cpt. Falcon: It's getting louder! Samus, what do we do?
Samus: Why are you asking me; Sheik is higher-ranked.
Cpt. Falcon: ...Oh.
Sheik: *rolls eyes*
Cpt. Falcon: S-so, then. Sheik, milady, WHAT SHALL WE DO?!
Sheik: Wait.
Cpt. Falcon: *flustered* Wait??
Sheik: *sits* Yes. Just that.
Cpt. Falcon: Why--
(The rumbling is intense. Suddenly, a Pokemon comes out.)
Cpt. Falcon: Whoa...
Snake: That's...What is...
Sheik: A Dragon Pokemon?
Samus: R...Ray...
Sheik: Rayquaza!
Rayquaza: *roars and flies up*
Sheik: *pushes Cpt. Falcon* Move, move!
(Rayquaza dives into the ground but misses them all. Sheik picks up one of her Smash Balls.)
Sheik: I don't have time for this.
(Sheik hits one enough to break the Ball and pulls back her bow. Sheik aims...and fires!)
Rayquaza: *roars in pain and falls back into the water*
Snake: *eyes wide open* ...Wow. That was fast.
Sheik: And it was a waste. What is Rayquaza doing in the lake? We stowed it away years ago...
Samus: Well, you sure silenced it for a while.
Snake: This definitely deserves a report back at the O.F.
Samus: Then... *walks over to Snake* You two will need to give us a detailed report of your time here.
Snake: ...
Samus: Well?
(Snake falls into the lake.)
-----------------------------------------------------
This post and the post before it were like a two-part post.

[Hiroko]

No comments yesterday... *sniff*

This will be a full-length post.
-----------------------------------------------------
Comp 001: Entering data now.
Sheik: *sits in a chair* Just to wait now.
Comp 001: ........
Data processed successfully.
Samus: So, the report has been filed. Now, just to wait for a response.
Sheik: That's all there is to it. And we'll call those creatures who tried really hard..."Mites."
Samus: "Mites"?
Sheik: They're puny like terMITES and they...try really hard.
Samus: Okay... Now let's go. Cpt. Falcon is waiting for us.
(They walk outside while waiting for their report to be answered. Snake and Cpt. Falcon are waiting.)
Cpt. Falcon: *strokes chin* I've been waiting for y--
Sheik: Can it. *looks to Snake* Was it more than a coicidence that you were positioned at the Lake?
Snake: (I don't wish to lie...) No. What makes you think that?? (But too late now!)
Cpt. Falcon: (She stopped me before I even finished... *cry*)
Sheik: Stop being foolish. This is serious.
Cpt. Falcon: But all I wanted to do was confess my undying love to you!
Sheik: *speechless in her anger*
(A beep sounds.)
Sheik: *checks wristwatch* A reply.
Watch: Sheik and company.
Cpt. Falcon: *writhes*
Watch: Move to the Announcement Hall immediately.
Sheik: Immediately... We're on it.
(Everyone falls back to the Hall.)
O.F. Leader: Thanks you for coming to see me, you all.
Sheik: Okay...Explain why you called us here.
Leader: *sighs* This won't be easy.
Anyway, what you found at the Lake is of great importance. What you saw is Rayquaza, as you know.
Samus: How did it escape?
Leader: We don't know how it escaped or even why it attacked. We had it frozen.
Snake: (Amazing...)
Leader: But it seems as though lately that big, ferocious creatures have been breaking out in some places and new, unseen ones have been about, as well.
We aren't sure yet of what to do with this information. However, we think that the DL has something to do with it.
Sheik: A likely assumption. Are you sure they aren't just trying to tick us off?
Snake: *looks at Cpt. Falcon*
Cpt. Falcon: *looks at Snake and shakes his head*
Snake: *nods*
Leader: Well, any ideas to deal with this?
Sheik: Exterminate or capture the beasts.
Leader: Some are human, you know! Er-hem, as well as...Anthromorphic...Yes...You get the idea.
Sheik: What?
Leader: It is true.
Sheik: Samus? A penny for your thoughts?
Samus: Oh. How many bounty hunters do we have?
Leader: Two.
Samus: Two? That's it? Who else besides me?
Leader: *points to Cpt. Falcon*
Samus: HUH?
Cpt. Falcon: OH! Oh. Yes. I am a bounty hunter, believe it or not. (IMPRESSED, SHEIKY?)
Leader: Then... I think I have a solution. Here's what we can do.
(Leader explains his plan:
Fighters in group of two will be assigned in a particular area where the strange creatures have been seen. Some areas may take two teams. And, in some cases, Samus or Cpt. Falcon [or both] will be dispatched to capture a creature. Teams may stay in their assigned areas until the area is 1. cleared of any problems or 2. a major monster or leader is defeated.)
Leader: Sheik, make this announcement to all personnel and fighters. We will take evasive measures tomorrow once we're ready. What time is it?
Sheik: Almost 8:00, 2000 hours.
Leader: Make the announcement once the clock strikes eight.
(As time passes, Sheik and Samus, alone for once, get ready to announce.)
Sheik: Sammy, do you feel that...
Samus: I told you, I hate that nickname.
Sheik: Okay, okay. As I was saying, don't you feel that Cpt. Falcon and Snake want to spend too much time with us?
Samus: Well, Captain Falcon is evident. He's so in love with you, my friend. Tell him you love him, too!
Sheik: I wouldn't even if I did.
And what about Snake, huh? What's he have to do with all this?
Samus: Who knows. He's too quiet.
(The clock rings 8:00 p.m.)
Sheik: Okay. Flip on the global intercom.
Samus: *flips switch* We are online!
Sheik: I have an announcement to make.
(Members everywhere stop what they are doing to listen, thinking "Is that Sheik?", "What's going on?", etc.)
Sheik: To all fighters -you will be drafted and sent to a designated area as of tomorrow to deal with a new menace.
There have been sightings of strange creatures and breakouts in several of the world areas, including the now-safe Lake. More news will be sent to you all by tomorrow.
Thank you.
(Sheik turns it off.)
Sheik: We'll have to work our behinds off starting tommorow, don't you think?
Samus: Are you ready?
Sheik: More than ready.
(And I'm ready to take care of this "Snake" problem, as well.)
-----------------------------------------------------
Finally, a longer post!

[Hiroko]

Bumping with a new post.
No comments still? I'm sad now.

Let's see what goes down today. NOTE: This post has the names of some SSE stages. Be warned.
-----------------------------------------------------
(In the Assembly Hall, an...assembly is going on!
Samus is wearing her Power Suit.)
O.F. Leader: Attention, all fighters! The lists have been prepared! All fighters should be ready to be assigned!
(Murmurs are heard among the crowd.)
Leader: Here is the list of fighters and their areas!
(Ike, alone -The Wilds
Sheik and Samus -The Glacial Peak
Snake and Cpt. Falcon -The Cave
Peach and Mario -The Research Facility
Fox and Falco -The Ruined Zoo
Lucas and Luigi -The Plain
Toon Link and Olimar -The Lake Shore)
Leader: These are the assigned areas for now. You will dispatched as soon as this next announcement over. Now, you are all aware of the O.F.'s proud history. The worst part of this, however, is the accursed DL, our most hated rivals. They have stopped at nothing to tear us down. But, lo, we have outbested them at every turn!
Sheik: (This is why I can't trust any of their members.)
Leader: So, I want you all to be on the lookout for any DL fighters. We think that they may have something to do with all of this.
Crowd: *boos*
Leader: These are the orders! Now embark to your assigned areas, mighty fighters! Good luck!
(The fighters starting running out. Samus realizes that Sheik is going a different way.)
Samus: Hey, Sheik! Where are you going?!
Sheik: I have something to do before we get there! I'll meet up with you!
Samus: ... Alright! See you there!
(Sheik, once outside, spots Cpt. Falcon and Snake. She follows them until they reach the road to the Cave. She hides among the rocks.)
Snake: This is the right place. Let's go in.
(Sheik kicks a rock down in front of the two and quickly ducks back.)
Cpt. Falcon: ...What was that?
Snake: Hmm... I think it came from around the cave...
Cpt. Falcon: Then I'll look around! Stay here!
Sheik: (It's working. Now to take out the prey.)
(Sheik lines some needles with a thick poison. She readies the needles.
Snake turns around, thinking he heard something. He turns back around again.)
Sheik: (3...2...1...)
(Sheik fires her needles and Snake gets hit in the back, neck, and legs. Snake falls down unconscious.)
Sheik: *jumps down* It worked like a charm.
...I hear something.
Cpt. Falcon: *coming back* Snake, it's all clear!...
Sheik: Uh-oh. Gotta run. *runs off*
-----------------------------------------------------
Samus: She's LATE. That's unlike her--
Sheik: Here! I'm here!
Samus: ...You're LATE.
Sheik: Too bad! I'm here, and that is all that matters. How long have you been here?
Samus: It doesn't matter. I haven't seen any monsters yet.
Sheik: Odd. And it's not even very cold.
Dispatcher 1: Come in, Sheik and Samus!
Sheik: We're here.
Dispatcher: How does it look there?
Sheik: It's calm and silent. But it isn't very cold at all.
Dispatcher: Strange. Look around for a while, won't you?
Samus: Yes, sir.
Dispatcher: Thank you, ladies. *switches out*
Sheik: Meh... I'm not really in the mood to look around... But okay.
Samus: *chuckles* Lazy woman. Let's look around.
(Samus and Sheik look around for about two hours. All they have seen is ice, ice, and snow.)
Samus: Way to find something outstanding.
Sheik: You, too.
Samus: *kicks a piece of ice and watches it fall* Well, we can almost send in a report now, stating how PRETTY it is here.
Sheik: *rolls eyes*
Samus: And to think that we haven't gotten a call from Cpt. Falcon, huh?
Sheik: Maybe he learned from all the hints (and threats) I dropped.
Samus: Ha, not likely. Maybe he and Snake are just busy. MAYBE...they found something.
Sheik: Or someone?
Samus: Yeah.
Sheik: Somehow, I think Cpt. Falcon would be pleased to see anyone else available.
Samus: What do you...
(Samus hears a crack somewhere.)
Samus: Did you hear that?
Sheik: *gets up and looks down*
Samus: *follows*
(They look down. In a split second, something huge jumps up. They look up.)
Samus: What...is...
(A Big Primid! The Big Primid lands and breaks the ice under it.)
Samus: Picture-fied. *takes a snapshot*
BP: *puches Sheik into the ice*
Sheik: *tries to struggle out* This is efficient.
Samus: Hang tight there, Sheik. I'll handle this.
(Samus [having been in her Power Suit] charges up a Power Shot. She fires, stunning the BP, and begins to barrage it. Sheik, realizing that she can still attack, pulls out some still-poisoned needles, charges them up, and fires. The BP falls down unconscious and tumbles off the glacier.
The snow falls again.)
Samus: Sheik, how did you...
Sheik: Ask me after you get me out of this hole.
Samus: Oh. Right. Stand still. This will sting.
(Samus uses her Grapple to get Sheik out, and it does indeed sting.)
Sheik: Ugh... I'll be feeling that for a while.
Samus: Told you.
Anyway, what was the deal with--
(Samus's wristwatch picks up a signal.)
... ...
Samus: Come in! Come in!
Cpt. Falcon: Samus! Do you read me?
Sheik: We hear you, Captain.
Cpt. Falcon: Please call a paramedic! Or, can either of you administer aid?
Sheik: I can, why?
Cpt. Falcon: Well, I was exploring the Cave where we were stationed to check for any abnormalities. I told Snake to wait outside. When I got back, he was knocked out!
Samus: That's strange...
We'll send in a report and get to you soon.
Cpt. Falcon: Hurry. I'm not sure of what happenend or anything.
-----------------------------------------------------
Shneaky, shneaky. See what happens next time!

[Hiroko]

I'm STILL posting my fanfic!!

New post! New post!
-----------------------------------------------------
(Samus and Sheik have arrived outside the Cave. Sheik bent beside Snake, about to administer medicine.)
Sheik: So, you have no idea of what happened?
Cpt. Falcon: No clue whatsoever.
Sheik: No trace at all? Not even a wound or some clue, such as a puncture wound?
Cpt. Falcon: No...
Sheik: (Idiot. As least my plan is working.)
Hmm... Based on the wounds here, I'd say he got hit by something sharp and small, like--
Samus and Cpt. Falcon: Needles...
Sheik: *looks up* I don't know what makes you think I did it, but keep guessing!
Cpt. Falcon: So, can't you help him?
Sheik: Just wait. I'm getting something out now.
(Sheik pulls out a vial with a concotion that has a strong odor. Unbeknowest to Samus and Cpt. Falcon, however, the medicine will weaken and numb Snake's entire body in addition to waking him.)
Sheik: Okay. He should awaken within a few hours.
Cpt. Falcon: *hugs Sheik* THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!! I LOVE you!! *leans in*
Sheik: *punches Cpt. Falcon in the gut, and he recoils* Do that again and I will kill you.
Cpt. Falcon: *strained* Yes...ma'am...
Samus: *shakes head*
So, Sheik, should we carry him back?
Sheik: It's not a bad idea, but should we report this?
Samus: An assault... We'll take care of it later.
-----------------------------------------------------
(Ike is alone at the Wilds.)
Ike: Lonely...So very lonely...For a guy like me. To have love without love back...Will this stay with me?
(Ike's wristwatch goes off.)
Watch: Special report!
Ike: ?
Watch: News have been given of a confirmed assault!
Ike: Assault...?
Watch: Earlier today the O.F. member Snake was found unconscious outside his post at the Cave region. His partner does not know what happened.
(Sound of Cpt. Falcon: I have no idea how it happened! I went inside the cave to check, and when I came back out, he was knocked out cold!)
Soon after, another member came to Snake's aid.
(Sound of Sheik's voice: Whoever did it is a very careful person indeed. The handiwork is flawless: not any evidence whatsoever.)
Ike: Sheik... Heh. So cool.
Watch: If you have any information as to what or who was involved, please contact the O.F. Information Section immediately.
(The wristwatch clicks off.)
Ike: Only Sheik could have pulled something so perfect off...But Sheik wouldn't attack such a new member, would she?
-----------------------------------------------------
(Sheik, Samus, and Cpt. Falcon are all in the infirmary area of the O.F. headquarters, aside Snake's bed.)
Samus: How long did you say the recovery will be?
Sheik: (And there's no way he'll leave bed for a good while...)
Samus: SHEIK.
Sheik: Oh- Huh? Uh, yes, yes! A few hours.
Samus: *looks back at Snake* Okay.
Sheik: Why do you care?
Samus: Snake is too smart to be attacked like this.
Sheik: An IQ of 180. Makes sense.
Samus: Unless, of course, the attacker was far more cunning or stealthy. Sort of like you.
Sheik: *annoyed* Why does everyone keep pointing fingers at me?! Why do I look like a prime suspect?! *storms out*
Samus: I didn't say...
Cpt. Falcon: For shame! Flustering the gorgeous Sheik like that, Samus!
Samus: Quiet. I think she's acting a little TOO sensitive, don't you think?
(Outside the room, Sheik is leaning against the wall.)
Sheik: *takes out vial* I still have some left. I should slip this in with his other medication...No. Too traceable. They'll just list everyone who entered the room...
Oh, well. Should keep him confined for at least three days.
-----------------------------------------------------
Okay, that was a bit short.

[ShadowDragon]

It's really good. Sorry you haven't got that many replies, but I don't see why not.
Keep on posting, Hiroko!
