Hey folks! Here's me with a (GASP) romance fic! O.o

Falco: Whoa! So, romance take two?

Yup! I've had an idea to write a fic and one-shot, but both busted…badly. Nevertheless, here's my second attempt. Special thanks is for Babykoalaprincess for somehow convincing me to give writing a romance fic another chance, thereby causing this to be born. Up here with me will be Falco, Ganondorf, and Dr. Mario, while down below will be Mario, Jigglypuff, and Popo.

Ganondorf: It's an honor!

Please be aware: this is really my first shot of writing a full multi-chaptered romance and I'm not all that sure of myself. I mean, romance and fluff to me are like common sense to President Bush, so—

Dr. Mario: Oh! Burn! XD

I'm a democrat, and I did want to say that (NO offense to those who like Bush!). Anyway, let me disclaim and stuff: I don't own SSBM or anything that has to do with it really, but I do own Smash Island, Planet Nintendo, and things you've either seen in my other fics and/or stuff that appears but isn't made by Nintendo.

WARNINGS: Be warned of YAOI! There are five planned pairings total in the fic, and three of them involve a guy loving another guy, so please, no harsh words (flames). If you dislike guy/guy, just don't read; I don't want to hear you ranting about how gay pairings are sick. I respect your opinion, but please, telling me my story sucks just because it is yaoi is low. --; As for the other two pairings, they're just there because. (Grins)

Also be warned of the main pairing: I am taking a "Crack-Pairing" (although I prefer the term Unusual) and attempting to make it realistic. The pairing itself? Well, yeah, guess I better let you know…it's a first I believe, and just so happens to be Marth/Ganondorf. To all my readers, shadow and regular alike, please give this a chance. And like above, I respect all opinions, but I don't want to hear people saying my story sucks because I paired Marth and Ganondorf together! XP

Also be warned of OoCness: Ganondorf will probably be OoC in this fic, and that is probable: I am literally changing him. But keep in mind this fiction, and if the first two warnings haven't shooed you away, I doubt this one will. XD

Falco: A longer introduction than normal, but it must be so. Well, let's start this fic. Away prologue!

He had no idea what to do.

The thoughts of what had happened tortured him, as he struggled to gain a good idea of what exactly was going on with the situation at hand, and what was going on with his own feelings.

Ganondorf Dragmire sat near the window, resting his head against the cold glass as he watched the rain fall harshly from the sky. Lightning flashed, revealing sorrow-filled eyes, as thunder exploded from far away.

And somewhere in that storm, held against his will was…

The gerudo could hear the pounding footsteps and confused cries of his fellow smashers behind him. They too were obviously shaken by what had just happened, and were trying to find a way to fix this situation.

'The fools…' Ganondorf bitterly, as he continued to watch the sky's tears.

But what about you? A voice in his head asked. At least those 'fools' are trying to find a way to save their friends. Here you are just sitting and lamenting. Hypocrite…

Although he firmly denied the voice, he knew his mind was right. What was he doing, sitting here and sighing? He should be with the rest of the smashers, running for the Meeting Room and thinking of some good advice on how to go about saving their recently captured friends.

'What's the point, though?' The gerudo thought angrily. 'It's not like I'm a good advice giver or anything.'

You have to try though! The voice in his heart cried. You have to! That man not only took four fellow allies, but he also took him away…the one you love! You have to help him!

"Yes," Ganondorf muttered softly; his breath steaming up the glass. He ignored a pair of soft footsteps, but did notice when his cape was being tugged at. "What is it?" he asked, turning around.

Young Link had both hands on the gerudo's cape. Upon seeing he got his attention, the younger incarnation of Link smiled.

"Meeting Room. Meeting. Let's go," Young Link replied, tugging the cape again.

"Forget it," Ganondorf muttered.

"But everyone has to come!" Young Link said, now trying to pull Ganondorf towards the door. "Master Hand will be upset you didn't!"

"I'm not good at public meetings," Ganondorf muttered darkly. "Especially since you're goddamn older self and his pretty little girlfriend will be there." He added, saying the word "girlfriend" sarcastically.

"I'll deal with them if I have to," Young Link said, smiling. "Now come on, let's go!"

The gerudo finally nodded, and the two headed for the Meeting Room.

Meanwhile, in Master Hand's office, both Hand brothers, in human form, were in a quick discussion.

"Why did this have to happen?" Jeremy asked bitterly, pushing his messy black hair out of his orange eyes. A red jacket hung over his tan shirt, and dark red pants reached to his ankles. He tapped the ground with his white sneakers and absentmindedly tugged on the white glove on his left hand. "He…how could he have…?"

"It's our own fault," Jeffrey replied, just as bitter. His hair, just as black as his brother's, was brushed back, fully revealing a pair of seemingly glowing violet eyes. He wore a dark indigo shirt that bore the SSB logo on both shoulder, and very long black pants. A camouflaging belt was wrapped around his waist, where his golden gun rested. A white glove, exactly like Jeremy's, was on his right hand. "We make too many enemies, dear brother."

The two looked at each other before exiting the office. No doubt the smashers were wondering where they were.

"I'm glad to see you all here," Jeffrey said upon entering the room. Jeremy barged in a few seconds after his older brother.

"What happened to my brother?" Luigi asked angrily.

"Who was that man?" Nana asked, fear dulling the normal spark in her eyes.

"It would be improper to say yet another enemy of us, yet that is all we wish to tell you," Jeremy replied. Luigi, Young Link, and Ganondorf all stared the younger brother down, which unnerved him. "After we hear his demands, if we must speak, we will. Don't upset me."

"Are you threatening us?" Luigi asked, rising from his chair. Peach grabbed the younger Mario's sleeve in the hope of calming him down; it was successful. Luigi sat down, staring sadly at the ground.

"But no matter his demands, we're not going to agree, right?" Bowser asked.

"Of course," Jeffrey replied. "Five of you will make a rescue party; I would never refuse to lift a finger to when it comes down to your safety. I want Link, Roy, Ganondorf, Young Link, and Pikachu to be in it; the rest of you will wait here until we find our new enemy's demands. Depending on how things go, I will send out others to assist."

"Why is Ganondorf tagging along with us?" Link asked. "I thought Luigi would be the one to go."

"I do want to go!" Luigi cried. Jeremy shook his head.

"I don't think Mario wants you exposed to such danger," he said. "Besides, you need to stay with Peach, right?"

"Right," Luigi muttered. "…alright. I'm staying."

"Then it's settled," Young Link said. "Let's get packing. Come on!" He tugged at Ganondorf's cape again. "Let's get packing!"

"Fine, I'll play along," the Gerudo King said, standing up and following the younger boy out of the room. Link let out a cough before standing up and leaving the room as well. Roy watched the Hero before following suit; Pikachu on his heels.

The smashers knew their next adventure had just begun.

Mario: And so we end the prologue!

Jigglypuff: We're sorry if this is lacking of situation detail, but RoyalFanatic's trying something new. She plans on starting off with an aftermath to get you guys interested, and what had happened with the captures and everything will be explained in a matter of time. Flashbacks, people, flashbacks. XD

Popo: So, tell us what you think! But please, no flames or belittling! We beg you to give this fic (and the pairing) a chance; romance fics aren't RoyalFanatic's strongest suit, and she promises to do her best with it! Review!
