Endless Summer - Chapter 1

Disclaimer - I OWN NOTHING.

Sheik was sitting upright in a tree, a lean leg dangling off the branch. "Well then I've gotta pay Kirby off for breaking his favorite glass cooking bowl, then i need to pay off Snake for the Mav's game bet..." the blonde women said aloud, calculating all of her debts.

Ike, who was just passing from his daily sword practice, spotted Sheik and called out to her.

"YO SHEIK, TALKING TO YOURSELF AGAIN?"

Sheik was far too used to Ike's taunts and just jumped up higher in the tree, rolling her wild red eyes all the while. This just aggravated Ike, and with a vein popping out of his temle, he began to climb the oak swiftly. The red eyed woman just lounged on her branch, an eyebrow raised as she watched Ike climb.

After Ike reached a branch near Sheik, he stretched out and crossed his legs on the branch, arms crossed in annoyance.

"What's up with you, your no fun anymore." Ike grumbled childishly. Sheik scowled back at Ike. "Grow up."

Science passed between the two.

"I'll force you to tell me what's wrong." Ike said.

"Ike you do realize we're in a tree, don't-" Sheik didn't have time to finish her sentence because Ike had tackled her head on, not even sure if he had even heard what she was about to say. "IKE! WHAT THE FUCK!" Sheik screeched in midair.

She braced herself for impact but she was not the one to take the fall. Sheik landed with a thud on Ike's chest, Ike seemingly unharmed. "Will you not act like a gentleman, because we all know you are not even close to one." Sheik muttered at him.

Ike's brilliant blue eyes flashed onto her. "So tell me, whats up with you?" Sheik rolled off of him and laid on her stomach picking at the grass, while Ike had his arms folded as a pillow and looking up at the sky.

"You can't laugh."

"I won't"

Sheik sighed. "I'm in a lot of dept, mainly for destroying most of the brawlers things.

"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

Ike received a fist in the face for his insensitivity. He rubbed his bruised cheek. "Ok ok, I shouldn't laugh. I'm low on cash as well." the mercenary admitted. The blonde said nothing, not exactly caring if Ike had green or not.

A idea suddenly burst into his head. "I KNOW, YOU AND I COULD-" Ike stopped himself. Damn, I need to quit doing that. Sheik would probably refuse. But Sheik was looking at him, crimson eyes glinting in curiosity, not annoyance.

Whaddya know, the bitch is desperate. Ike thought as a triumphing smirk slid onto his face and Sheik's glow in her eyes began to fade.

"Well, spit it out!"

"Fine, but you can't laugh."

"I won't."

"We get...jobs."

"!"

Ike's eyebrow twitched as he watched Sheik try to control her laughter. "I'm sorry-HAHAHAHA-Its just that-HAHAHAHAHA-Too funny!" Sheik finally stopped and said "Well okay fine. that the only choice I have, I guess."

"So I guess this makes us job-hunting buddies." Ike said, putting a hand on Sheik's shoulder and smiling widely. Ike received another punch in the cheek by Sheik.

Sheik sighed loudly, and the two walked to the Smash Mansion together...at a comfortable distance

How lame.

Well, just bare with me. It'll get better as my writing skills improve.
