A/N: (Ahem) Hello, everyone! I seriously do not believe that any of you will find this story appealing, emotionally uplifting, or that it will cause you to have a life-changing moment of introspection and analysis of your life's worth. Instead, it will be a random little fic that I've finally decided to type up. Just so you all know, this was originally intended to be in script format, and it has also been lying around for a year or two.......or three....(sweatdrop) It has quite a few hand-written chappies that just require me to modify into story format and type up. I figure that by posting it on , I will finally be inspired to finish the cursed thing. (reads above words) O.O Woo...lots of long words. Erm.....summarize, summarize.....It used to be script. I never posted it. I've changed it. It's not script anymore. It's random and pointless. Constructive criticism will be appreciated, reviews will be adored, and flames will toast my marshmellows. And keep my feet warm. Or ignored. Or.....okay, stopping.

DISCLAIMER: I don't own Animal Crossing. The only thing I DO own are my own precious little characters, and an army of tomatoes. A warning to all, don't like, don't read. I'll stop with the rambling so you can read the fic now. It's my first Animal Crossing fic, so......yeah. You get the drill. Be nice. Or face my army of Evil Tomatoes and a Hokey Pokey Stick of Pain. You were warned.

Oh, and -Words surrounded by these dashes are the narrarator talking.-

Trials of the Tourney Chapter One: The Boring Beginning Chappie Where All Is Explained.

-Spyke, Shadow, Shady and Fifi all lived in the.....lovely.....town of Metallia. The town was almost always covered with weeds. Sometimes, those lazy bums named Shadow, Shady and Spyke would get off their lazy butts and pick a few. These moments were few and far between.-

"Dude, move on with the story already!! I am DYING of boredom here."

F-ine. Anyway, the native fruit of Metallia is the cherry. There was an orange tree or a pear tree or an apple tree somewhere, but that's of no concern to us.-

"PEAR!?! Did you say there's a PEAR tree here?!?! Whereisitwhereisitwhereisit!?!?!?!"

-O.O Uh.....the overall geography of the town is quite interesting. If you like geography, that is. The river starts in acre A-5, flows downward to the lake, then suddenly cuts across the town until it reaches the 1 acres. It makes travel particularily hard....-

"FORGET THE FRIGGIN' GEOGRAPHY LESSON!! WHERE ARE THE PEARS!?!"

"Shady, don't you think you should let the narrarator finish talking? I thought it was very interest-"

"SHUT UP FIFI!!!!! I WANT A PEAR!!!!!"

-Urm.....O.o Spyke, Shady, Shadow and Fifi are the only humans in Metallia. Their houses are located in Acre B-3.-

-Spyke lives in the upper right house. He's still paying the loan on his basement. The roof is white, and the house is surrounded by the trampled remnants of the flowers someone tried to plant there. He has large, innocent-looking eyes, but his personality is about as charming as a box of kitty-litter that hasn't been cleaned in a week.-

"......Well, your mom's so fat that-"

"How many times have you said that this week?"

"Your IQ's higher than the number of times I've said this insult."

"Ha ha. Thanks for the compliment, since you've said it 137 times."

"Quit exaggerating."

"I'm not. Shad and I have been counting."

"............Well, your mom's so ugly that she makes YOU look pretty."

"Do you have a death wish or something?"

-Right. Make that a box of kitty litter that's NEVER been cleaned.-

"HEY!! NARRARATOR-PERSON!! COME DOWN HERE AND SAY THAT TO MY FACE YOU-" (Ahem, had to censor that.)

-Someone has a potty mouth.-

"Someone has no snappy comeback."

-And that mouth smells like one, too.-

"Yawn."

-And it doesn't smell like just ANY toilet. His mouth smells like a school bathroom.-

"Go ahead, say all the insults you want, I DON'T CARE!!" The one known as Spyke covered his ears. "La-la-la-la, I can't hear you...."

-He's also very loud and obnoxious. And stupid.-

"LA-LA-LA-LAA!!!" He was nearly screaming now.

-Shadow, unlike Spyke, is very quiet.-

"LA-LA-LAAAAAA!!"

"SHUT UP!!!" Shady punched Spyke.

"......"

-She has blue eyes and shoulder-length blue hair. Amazing, how freaky people look in this game.-

Everyone's eye's suddenly popped wide open.

"WE'RE IN A GAME!?!?!" Shady screeched.

A second later, dozens of men in black suits wearing sunglasses jumped through windows or crashed through the ceiling.They surrounded the four people. One of the strange people took out what looked like a remote and held it up. There was a bright, blinding flash. The agents left as quickly as they had come.

"Wha-what happened? And why are the windows broken? And the ceiling has holes in it...."

-....There was an earthquake. Anyway, moving on, Shadow, quiet, strange blue hair, yadda yadda. Uh, she has recently upgraded to a two-story house. She also has...a...pet...snakehead?!?-

"...He's my fishy..."

-Yeah.......Shady lives in the lower-right house. It has a blue roof, and she's almost finished paying for her first expansion.-

"Go me! Go me!" Shady started to do the Happy Dance.

-Her hair is blue, but a shade or two lighter than Shadow's. Her eyes are also half-closed (or half-open, if you're an optimistic sort of person) making her look tired all the time. She's also loud and random, with insults and curses enough to rival Spyke. Did I mention she was random?-

"PINEAPPLES!!!!"

-......-

"YOU ARE A DISGRACE TO PINEAPPLES!!"

-On to Fifi.-

"Hello!"

-Fifi has pink hair.-

"THE PINK!!!!" Shady started spazzing. Spyke fell into a dead faint. Shadow plopped onto the ground, stunned with the sudden realization that Fifi had pink hair.

"Pink is happy!" Fifi smiled, and happy flower-and-rainbow-type-stuff swirled around her head. Shady went from spazzing to an all out seizure. Shadow fainted.

-Now you know....

Now you know.......

Now you know.......

Those weird people. Time for the story to actually start.-

Shady was in a hyper mood. And when the already outgoing and loud Shady got hyper, things became insane to the point of insanity. She ran to the bulletin board, dragging Shadow behind her. "C'mon! C'mon! C'mon!" she squealed like a broken record. "Let'sgobugSpykeuntil hescreamsahigh-pitchedscreamofpain!!!"

They dashed past Fifi. Upon seeing them, she smiled and paused in the watering of her flowers. "Hello, neighbors!" The newest member of the town greeted them.

Shady skidded to a stop. Well, she would have stopped if Shadow hadn't run into her. Slightly dazed from the high-speed collision, she looked up. And saw what Fifi had done to her roof.

"Your roof.....it's....it's.....PINK!!!!

Fifi beamed. "Yes! Isn't it cute?" Shady's eye started to twitch.

"Yeah..." 'If you think giving your neighbors seizures is cute.....HOLY CRAP! My house is right across from hers! I have to wake up to that eyesore each morning!!!'

Shadow blinked. They had never really spoken to Fifi before. Oh sure, they had said hi when she moved in, but aside from that, they didn't really speak. It happens when your neighbor is one of the dreaded morning people. Quite frankly, Fifi scared Shadow.

Shady checked her watch, absent-mindedly wondering why she was up before noon. Then she remembered that she was hyper.

"WellbyeFifiitwasreallynicetalkingtoyouI'mgoingtogobugSpykeuntilhescreams."

Spyke ran screaming from his house.

"That didn't take long...."

Spyke ran around in circles for a minute or so, then he finally stopped freaking out long enough to notice the three girls.He ran up to them and shoved his notebook with the handy-dandy calender in their faces.

"THE TOURNEY IS COMING! THE TOURNEY IS COMING!" Lightning flashed in the backround.

Well, Chappy One is Out of the Way.

Please review. Otherwise, I'll have to poke you with my Hokey Pokey Stick of Pain.
