Summary:

Stage 1: lion forest

1-1, the little fighters started a secret training camp after defeating Julian.
3 days ago, you started having bad visions of you and the others dying. It is night and you're having those dreams again. The dreams make you think you must leave the training camp. You leave together with Nino, a new member of the little fighters. John stays in the camp to contact the other little fighters telepathically to tell them that they are in grave danger.

1-4, you keep moving towards the icy mountains but the sun is starting to rise (if data changer can do this), you rescue and hostage and he says something like "this mad monster was walking around looking for something and destroying everything in the forest, he even took my wife with him!". He's referring to Julian but the player doesn't know this.

1-5, sun is up, your walking in a destroyed forest (if data changer can do this)
1-7, you face Bat, one of Julian's men.
1-8, you face Julian (battle similar to stage 5-5 in the original game but easier).
1-9, You take Justin hostage. You also find Jan, the hostage's wife that Julian left behind when he ran away, she joins you. You can see now the icy mountains as u get close to them. You go after Julian.

Opponents in the stage: mainly bandits and hunters.


Stage 2: icy mountain (Magia mask & Frost mask)
You start climbing the icy mountain where Julian is after another mask. On the mountain lives an old magician. He and his ancestors have been protecting the ice for generations. To protect the mountain, he tries to stop Julian, but without any luck. Julian is close to getting the mask.

2-1 until 2-3, you fight the Wizard's minions
2-4 until 2-6, you fight a mix of Julian minions and wizard minions. End of 2-6, freeze joins you
2-7, you fight the wizard, freeze talk to him and make him join you
2-8, you face Julian together with the wizard, and take Julian's mask and the one in the ice after winning

Note: not sure if we should let them face Julian 2 times in the story. We could also make Bat the stage 1 boss and leave Julian for stage 2.


Stage 3: dark forest (Beast mask)
You go into a dark forest with a big moon (bg).
In stage 3-5, a new enemy appears: it's the general, who's also after the masks. You fight the general.
In stage 3-8, you find the 3th mask. A big werewolf is guarding it. You beat him, the werewolf changes back into his human form and he tells you to go to the city of Lake Town.

Opponents in the stage: sorcerers, bandits, hunters


Stage 4: Lake Town

4-1 & 4-2, Jacks, bandits, hunter
4-3, you are being robbed by an unknown character. Dennis joins you
4-4, woody joins you.
4-5, the unknown character shows itself: it is a fast minion with teleportation skills.
4-6, you face Firzen (who is holding the 3 stolen masks)
4-7, after defeating Firzen, Davis joins you and you step into a machine that was behind Firzen


Stage 5: Enemy camp
The little fighters have teleported themselves right into the main enemy's camp.

5-3, you face the general with the 4th mask on, so he's stronger than before. However, the general hasn't told his boss that he has actually found the mask;
5-7, you have to face the main enemy who is after the masks.

The main enemy has got four of them but he can not find the last one. He is convinced that the Little Fighters have it, so he's going to destroy them in a great battle and claim the last mask. This enemy, the boss villain, appears to be the ultimate villain, BUT... The general, who really has the last mask, manages to steal the bag with his boss' masks and flees the scene, beats the sh*t out of the guards and brings all the masks together to REALLY become the ultimate villain.

Stage 5-8, the general comes back as the ultimate villain and he kills his boss and then you have to fight the general, who has obtained the power from all the masks. Luckily for you, you get some help from 5-6 other Little Fighters in an extreme battle. General has high stamina, high defence, high speed, high physical power AND high special power.


Masks
Magia mask (Julian's, dark blue & red glowing eyes) - special attack
Frost mask (Wizard's, white & blue) - stamina (heavily reduced mana cost)
Beast mask (Wolf's, color doesn't really matter for now, its just a filler ) - physical strenght
Shadow mask (General's, 2nd form, black & blue) - speed & evasiness
Titan Mask (Main Villain's (red&?) - defence

And the last mask is a fusion of all 5, so it boosts everything.
Note: the wizard isn't wearing the mask, he's preventing it from ever being released.


THE STORY (has to be updated still, summary is complete)

Spoiler (Click to View)

In the original story, the little fighters defeat Julian. Julian had one mask at that time, therefor he was more powerful than the other fighters in the original story. Gathering all the masks would cause the masks to fuse into one extremely powerful mask.


Stage 1
Starting with a text box:"After defeating Julian, the little fighters started a secret training camp, hidden deep in the lion forest: 'Little Fighter strength camp'. They had lots of fun, trained a lot and were one day joined by a new friend and fighter: Nino. Everything seemed better than ever... But unfortunately, it couldn't be peace forever...

3 days ago, you woke up with terrible visions of your own demise. After a few heavy nights, having seen yourself and the other Little Fighters die time and time again, it was all to clear: something had to be done, you would have to leave the camp and seek out the evil that was almost upon your doorstep."

You will start your journey. The plan is to get to John's place together with Nino. John is living in the same forest, and has the ability to contact people on any part of the planet. John will be at stage 1-5 and will tell you that he has a feeling you should leave the forest, to see what is happening in the world. You tell John about your visions, and he pauses... I'll stay here to contact the others. You should immediately We have a real problem on our hands...

In stage 1-5, you start seeing Justin as a minion. In stage 1-7, you come across Bat (or any other weak boss that could be working for Julian). He claims to be working for Julian, but Julian is supposed to be gone. In stage 1-8, you find Julian and you'll have an interesting conversation:

You:
"Wha... what the... Julian?!"

Julian:
"Yes, that's right. You thought you had seen the last of me?

You:
"Indeed. We destroyed you.

Julian: "No, you thought you did. I would have died if I would have been an ordinary fighter, but I have a little secret, and I'm sure you can help me further my course for unlimited power."

You:
"What are you talking about?"

Julian:
"You know exactly what I'm talking about! If you don't want to give it to me now, I'll take it from you myself!"

You:
"Uh oh, here he comes!!"

You have a fight with Julian and some of his army, similar to stage 5-5 in the original game, but easier.


Stage 1-9 (story)

Julian is defeated but manages to flee the scene by firing a super soul bomb (he hasn't been sleeping all that time ). You take Justin (or a new character on Julian's team) hostage and make him tell what is going on. He tells you the story about the icy mountain, how there is another mask in the ice there, how Julian's henchmen have been destroying the ice in order to get to the mask, how an old magician has trying to hold them off.

You: "So, there must be at least three of these masks. Julian has one and he's after the one in the ice. It seems he thought we had a third mask. Why would he think that?...... Anyway, we don't know exactly what they do yet, or how many there are in total. But we do know Julian is collecting them and it seems a lot like he's getting a great power boost from them. We have to stop him before he becomes unstoppable! It would mean our end!!"

Justin: "Yes, yes, very dramatic. C'mon, I told you all that I know. Now let me go!!"

You: "Alright. Leave. Julian probably won't welcome you back though, you digged your own grave by telling us the story."

Justin: "Argh.. You've killed me!!"

You: "Join us in battle. It improves your chances of staying alive."

Justin joins you.

You: "Let's go get him."


End of stage 1


Characters:

Minions: bandit, hunter, knight (1-6 and on), justin (1-5 and on)
Heroes: some of the new ones can be introduced
Boss: Bat (1-7), Julian (1-9)
[/color]



Stage 2
You start climbing the mountain. On the mountain lives an old magician, who recently got sick. He and his ancestors had been protecting the ice for generations, but as he got sick, the ice had started to melt due to his loss of power. Besides, Julian's minions were sent to destroy the ice which makes the destruction go a lot faster. At the current rate, the ice will be gone and the mask will be set free within days! The magician, however old and weakened, is still a very powerful opponent. He kills hundreds of Julian's henchmen, but there is no stopping them as they keep coming.



So, the little fighters are on the mountain to stop Julian. However, the magician that lives on the mountain thinks you are there to harm his mountain and he tries to stop you. Julian's almost got the mask by that time, and he tells the little fighters that they are too late. The magician then understands that you don't mean any harm, and he stops the fight to join you in the battle against Julian. The battle is a lot more intense than in stage 1-9. When you win, you take Julian's mask and the other mask with you and swear to protect them from evil.

Minions: mainly sorcerers, Justin, Mark, bandit, ice minion
Bosses: wizard, Julian


Stage 3
the magician has given you the information on the other masks. Your quest continues and you move into a dark forest with a big moon (bg). In stage 3-5, a new enemy appears: it's the general, who's also after the masks. He tells you that he's the main enemy's general and he's looking for the masks for his boss. He says "You appear to be looking for the same thing, so you're in my way. You leave this forest right now, or I'll make sure your corpses will remain here forever". You fight the general. He's strong, but fairly easily defeated. You find the 3th mask in stage 5-8 or something. A big werewolf is guarding the mask. You beat him, and the werewolf changes back into his human form.
The wolf in human form says: " I was visited by a dark force only two days ago. Their boss said they were looking for a wolf guarding a mask, I was lucky that I was in human form at that time. I don't think I would have stood a chance if I would have had to fight them.. I don't know where they went exactly after that, but I caught a glimpse of a map his general was holding.. they had placed a big cross nearby, in the city of Lake Town. It's probably just about 50 miles from here. I wouldn't be surprised if they were after another mask that is located there".

Minions: mainly hunters, bandits and sorcerers.
Others: Henry (leading a hunter squad)
Bosses: the general (no mask), werewolf


Stage 4
You continue your quest for the masks. You decided to hurry to Lake Town. You arrive there at night.

Background could be something like this:

Spoiler (Click to View)

The search for the dark force in Lake Town starts relatively quietly. There's mainly bandits, sorcerers and Marks on the streets in 4-1 and 4-2. From 4-3 on, you get the feeling you are getting closer: you start seeing some knights, Jans and monks. Then suddenly, you are being robbed of your masks by an unknown character (working for the main enemy) (stage 3-5).
You decide to go deeper into Lake town. In stage 5.6, you face Hydron. From stage 5.7 on, you see a new minion with teleportation skills (move #1: same teleporting skills as Woody, but faster and using more MP. Move #2: a quick kick, giving similar effect as a teleport + tiger dash)
In the end, you find Firzen, holding the masks that were stolen from you earlier that day, accompanied by this new type of minion. You fight Firzen and his minions.

After defeating Firzen, you find a something that appears to be a teleporting machine. You step into the teleporting machine and this ends the stage.

Minions: mainly monks, Jack, Mark and maybe new minions
Bosses: none (yet)


Stage 5: 

The little fighters have teleported themselves right into the hole of the beast! They are now in the most dangerous place in the world. This is where the main enemy who's after the masks, has his camp.

The main enemy is a mighty creature, not human or orc, but something entirely new in LF2;

He has a human-like general under him, powerful and badass, that has the desire to become the strongest of all. A strong, proud, cruel villain, like Vegeta in DragonballZ. You met him in stage 3;

The main enemy could be something like Malekith for example, but with a twist (Malekith is a Dark Elf from Marvel movies by the way):

 

The main enemy strikes fear into everyone, and fear was the reason that Firzen and Hydron turned against you before. They had to work for the main enemy or they would be gone from this world.


Stage 5-3 boss: the general with the 4th mask on, so he's stronger than before. However, the general hasn't told his boss that he has actually found the mask;
Stage 5-8, you have to face the main enemy who is after the masks. He's got four of them but he can not find the last one. He is convinced that the Little Fighters have it, so he's going to destroy them in a great battle and claim the last mask. This enemy, the boss villain, appears to be the ultimate villain, BUT... The general, who really has the last mask, manages to steal his boss' mask and flees the scene, beats the sh*t out of the guards and brings all the masks together to REALLY become the ultimate villain.
Stage 5-9, the general comes back as the ultimate villain and he kills his boss and then you have to fight the general, who has obtained the power from all the masks.
