Smash City, the eye of a lot of activity in the world of Smash. It also attracts quite a few of interesting fighters too. One of which being a puny, demonic Overlord walking in town with a little yellow Pok?mon. Laharl looked around the city curiously, he can't help but feel that hes seen this place before. Possibly during his flight in the skies before he became a trophy, not that it matters. "Hmm, a city huh. Not so bad." The overlord looked at the stores around him. "Well at least its got more room then the castle back home."

The little yellow Pok?mon in question was leading Laharl through the city, showing him 'the sights', but also having a Final destination in mind. The TV store. In the meantime, they passed a gift shop which seemed to be selling mineature icons. One of them was Pikachu himself. There were others as well, and some boxes seemed to hold extremely popular idols, since they were practically empty. Many of these characters were very familiar to Pikachu.

After going though some sights, they're tour brought them to the Gift Shop. Laharl looked at the idols. "Toys huh..." He picked up a Captain Falcon toy and shook. "Too creepy!" He put it back, but then the overlord picked up a Peach idol. "Reminds me of a certain bubbly blond..." He put it back once again. Laharl's eyes seem to have noticed a couple of shelves fully stocked with Roy figurines, they were gathering dust and some of the toys had spider webs around them. "Whoa, looks like those things have seen better days."

Pikachu, meanwhile, was rummaging around in another bin, and came out with a figurine of himself. "Pika! <3" he stated, showing it to Laharl. Down to the exact color of his goggles, the little idol looked exactly like Pok?mon holding it.

Laharl blinked when he noticed that Pikachu wanted his attention, looking down at the figurine, the overlord looked intrigued. "Huh, thats you?" He took it looking at the tiny, Pikachu replica. "So I can assume your famous around these parts, right?" He figured these toys had to be massively popular, and for Pikachu to have a toy built after himself was pretty impressive. Laharl then wondered why they didn't even bother to make an action figure of him back at the castle.

Pikachu then put the toy back, and this time came back to Laharl with a little information panphlet about the tiny trophies. Inside were pictures of all the collectible trophies, and little ditties about the characters they represented. On the cover were pictures of Mario, Kirby, Link, and Pikachu. "Pika!"

Taking the pamphlet, Laharl looked though it. He started studying the information inside. "Well that seems very nice...now if only I could get home and start on my mind controlling toys." The figurines have given him a playful idea, but before he could take it seriously, he noticed Mario in the front as he growled. "THAT FAT FOOL!!!" He started shaking his fist in rage. "Who is this mustachioed man?!"

Pikachu's ears twitched, and once he put two and two together, a triumphant smile appeared on his face. So! He had fought the legendary Mario himself, eh? Fitting, for a newcomer. "Pii ka-chu?" He asked, pointing at Laharl, then mimicking punching someone, and finally ending with a fall and straightening up so fast, and standing so still, that he could have been mistaken for a statue.

Laharl blankly looked at Pikachu for a second, trying to translate what hes trying to say though his head. "Huh...OH, are you asking if I fought him?" He think he figured it out, and growled. "Oh yeah I did, he and a Blue Porcupine, and some kid in blue armor! Those fools got lucky!" The demon growled and shook his fist like some demented revenge seeker.

Pikachu shrugged, seeming to make no deal of Laharl's loss, or the fight. After all... weren't they MADE to fight? But it seemed that Laharl hadn't gotten the point yet. Which is why Pikachu motioned to follow once more, and off he was on the journey to the TV store.

Laharl looked at Pikachu once more. "Need me to go somewhere?" With a shrug, the demon overlord got up following Pikachu to another location.

And finally, they arrived at the TV store, where there were perhaps hundreds of the boob tubes, and most were set on different channels. Pikachu hopped up to the nearest TV (which turned out to be a rather large flatscreen variety), and started flipping through the channels, hoping that there was a battle going on at that particular moment. Several seconds past frantically, until... "Kayash SPEEYAH!" Blared the speakers on the TV, showing a pink puffball with a rather funky black-and-red hairdo. Pikachu recognised him as Kirby with some kind of hat on. Pikachu sighed in relief as he watched the battle unfold. The camera then panned around the arena - the Smash City supermarket, as it would be- showing the other combatants/audience, including Lucas, Shadow, and May and Sonic. "Pikachu!" Pikachu said to Laharl, pointing at the screen. He then sat down to watch the battle.... with about half of the entire store that heard Kirby's outburst on TV.

The demon looked around at all the TVs, but his eyes were driven to the one Pikachu turned on. He jumped shocked when he saw Kirby. "The hell is he?! And why is his hair so weird?" This is coming from a guy with antennas coming out of his head, but he sat down with Pikachu and decided to watch. After a while he put everything Pikachu took him to see together, he eventually came to a few realizations: Cities oddly named with fighting names, a lot of content of fighters and fans in the streets going crazy over them, battles left and right for victory and glory? "This is a MUMORPURGER world based on the glory of battle!" He stood up when he finally figured out where he is, then smirked. "A world based all around fighting eh? Looks like this isn't a complete bore after all!"

Pikachu nodded excitedly, glad that Laharl finally got the picture.

With his new found knowledge of the world he was in; Laharl crossed his arms thinking about what he was going to do now. "I guess me coming to this world isn't so bad, now what to do..." He then figured out what he wanted to do while snapping with his right hand. "Aha!" He then looked down the Pikachu. "Tell me, can anyone enter these tournaments?" He had cooked up quite the plan in his little, evil head.
