Super Smash Bros. Brawl/The Lake Shore

'''As Kirby and the princess are walking along a lane, Kirby spots something and runs off. The confused princess turns around only to find herself at the business end of Bowser's Dark Cannon. Shadow Bugs swarm the trophy, as Bowser plans another nefarious plot. Two pairs of brave heroes are about to have their paths converge, but this meeting wouldn't be a peaceful one. As one pair of them races across the path, the fake princess formed from Shadow Bugs lines up her Dark Cannon. However, a swing of the blade knocks it out of her hand. Two other fighters have spotted her, and won't let her commit this evil deed.'''

Fake princess battle
This entire stage will play out differently depending on which princess you chose to save at the start of the game, but it basically involves a chain of battles similar to a normal versus mode match. For the first fight, you must defeat Zelda as Mario and Pit if you saved Zelda during the fight with Petey, whereas you will fight against Peach as Link and Yoshi if you saved her instead. You should have a slight advantage over the fake princess, as you have two lives while she only has one.

Having defeated the fake princess, both brawlers watch as her trophy diffuses into Shadow Bugs. At that very moment, the other two fighters witnesses the exact moment of the trophy vanishing. Soon, both pairs of heroes find themselves fighting against each other. For the first two fighters, the very people they tried to save are now actively trying to fight them.

A conflict between heroes
Now you will have to fight Link and Yoshi if you saved Zelda, or Mario and Pit if you saved Peach. The battle is a bit harder, since you only have one stock each and it's a 2-on-2 fight, but you get a computer-controlled partner if you don't have a second player playing with you. Again, the battle is similar to a standard match, so just fight as you normally would and you should win.

As the two victors look at the trophies of their attackers, King Dedede suddenly drives by in Wario's hovercar, swooping the two trophies up. However, Kirby quickly comes out of hiding and slices the hovercar's grappling arm with one swift slash of the cutter. He quickly revives both downed fighters as King Dedede drives away in a panic. Having seen the trophy of another princess on the hovercar, all of the fighters decide to pursue King Dedede.

Lakeside pursuit
Run to the right and you'll encounter a new enemy: the Bombed. These explosive enemies toss their bomb heads at you and run away to regenerate more bomb heads. You will also have to fight some Mites and some Tickens along the way. Keep moving to the right until you reach a platform that will start to rise as soon as you land on it. You must now fight off several swarms of enemies that mostly consist of Bombeds, though there will also be a Greap thrown into the mix.

After the fights, the platform will start to descend and shrink as tons of Bullet Bills home in on you. Once you safely reach the ground, run to the right to reach the door to the next area.
