The Subspace Emmisary
Disclaimer: I don't own much in this story except for Timothy Alister, and the worlds of ShinMobius and ShinTerra, but even they are based off of existing properties. All characters and objects in this fic are taken from properties owned by Nintendo, Hal Laboratories, The Pokémon Company, Pokémon USA, Silicon Knights, Konami Entertainment, SEGA, Capcom, Hudson Soft, Square-Enix, DiC and Archie.
This is Story 47 in the ShinSonic fanfic series, despite being placed in the Super Smash Bros. Section rather than the Sonic Section... Okay, this story, and Story 46 (A Sonic & Mario adaption), are meant not exclusively as parts of the ShinSonic series. They're also tests of other possible story universes. This one tests out the Captain N story universe I plan to write.

Prologue: This World...
Videoland... A Multiverse with the worlds of many videogames. Many of them are known as "Earth", but they have different prefixes. There are worlds for every game you can imagine. The world of ShinMobius is this universe's counterpart to the Sonic world. There's also a counterpart of the Mario World. There is also a Pokémon world here, but it is not the same one that Sonic had encountered before. That world was located in the same space in another dimension, this one is within the same dimension, but at a different location.
Terra Firma may be just one of the many worlds within Videoland, but it is unique among them because it does not have any heroes or villians of it's own. Instead, it is the world that one from our world would recognize as being from the games called Super Smash Brothers. A world where people from the various other worlds come to compete in either Fighting or other games. Less than a month ago, it was used to hold the interdimensional games between Mario's World and ShinMobius (Story #46: The Interdimensional Games, the Sonic & Mario at the Olympic Games adaption).
The 'Gods' of this world are known as Master Hand and Crazy Hand. Rumored to be the essenses of Creation and Destruction themselves, these two oversee the fights and events that take place here. Their armies include polygonal golems known as the "Fighting Polygon Team", Male and Female "Fighting Wireframes", and four other beings known as the "Fighting Alloy Team". While this army seems small in comparison to other armies, Master Hand and Crazy Hand themselves are fairly powerful, and don't need that much protection.
While the world is devoid of heroes or villians of it's own, it does have other people who are immigrants from other worlds. They usually make up the audience for these events, but have sometimes found themselves caught up inbetween huge battles for the sake of Videoland. The natural born inhabitants of this world are known as Miis, who are basically devoid of any sort of heroic OR villanious nature. They basically live to watch and play games. On occasion, they also make trips to other universes, in particular Mario's, to participate in various sporting events there.
The rules of this world are clearly defined... however... What is to follow is the story of the first time those rules were broken... When the force from a world that claims to named Subspace, came forth to take over Videoland...
