Happy Thanksgiving all you readers! No need to review unless you want to! Fun stuff! Not really a story with plot, but I hope y'all like it!

I don't own these characters (duh).

"I love Thanksgiving!" exclaimed Peach, twirling around the kitchen.

"Watch it!" shouted Rosalina, sidestepping Peach's dance to avoid dropping the two pies she held in her hands all over the tile floor.

"Sorry," Peach apologized, taking one of the pies. "I guess I need to settle down."

"You guess?" chuckled Link, peeling potatoes into the trashcan. "What's you favorite kind of pie, Zel?"

The Hylian princess wiped her hands on her apron and turned from the carrots she was cutting. "Pecan. Definitely. I love nuts."

"I'm allergic," said Chrom, walking in with a bag of sweet potatoes. "Pumpkin's definitely my favorite. Very traditional, you know?"

"You're so exactly proper," muttered Fox, following him in with a plastic bag of apples. "Have you guys ever tried orange pie?"

Everyone turned to stare at him.

"What?"

"Orange… pie," he finished lamely. "Oh, you guys don't know anything."

"Wario!" screamed Peach. "Stop it! If you eat all the pies now there won't be any for the Thanksgiving meal!"

Wario guiltily removed his hand from the blueberry pie and gave them a sulky look. "If I don't get anything to eat, I won't survive until dinner."

"You'll be fine, I'm sure," said Zelda, rolling her eyes. "Where's Sheik? She and Samus were supposed to be getting cranberry sauce at the store."

"Who knows?" answered Chrom, setting down his bag by the trash. "There's more potatoes for you, Link."

"Thanks, dude," groaned Link.

"If it was Peach and Rosalina," began Fox, "I'd understand why they're late. You guys could talk the ears off… Link and Zelda." He cackled as the two Hylians shot him cold looks.

"Do you think they're in trouble?" asked Rosalina, ignoring Fox's backhanded criticism.

"I hope not," said Peach worriedly.

"What's-a wrong, my-a princess?" asked Mario, walking into the kitchen with his confident stride. A less confident Luigi walked in behind him.

"Have you seen Sheik or Samus around?" asked Peach. "They were supposed to bring cranberry sauce."

"Haven't-a seen 'em," responded Mario. "Mama mia! I hope they hurry! Thanksgiving's-a nothing without-a cranberry sauce."

Wario snorted as he waddled past them and out of the kitchen on his fat legs. "I'm gonna go see how Ike's coming along with those turkeys on the grill."

"I wouldn't get too close," said Marth, entering with Robin M. "Ike's been expecting you and he has a full pail of rotten tomatoes and of course his Ragnall."

"I gave him the tomato suggestion," Robin M told Chrom out of the corner of his mouth.

Chrom smirked. "Where's Robin? My Robin."

"Setting the table with Lucina and Corrin."

"Dudes!" exclaimed Little Mac, walking in. "Cloud said we couldn't have wine with Lucas and Ness and stuff, so I totally bought Martinellis! Twenty of them!"

"I think, even though it's non alcoholic, you could still get potentially drunk on twenty whole bottles of that," said Zelda, folding her arms.

"They're not just for me," Little Mac responded in an offended tone.

Cloud entered. "There are way too many people in here," he said in his stiff voice.

"Agreed," said Chrom.

"Hey, Mac, you wanna take a turn peeling these?" Link asked, handing the boxer a peeler. "It's… fun. You and… Hey! Ryu! Perfect! Ryu, you and Mac can peel the rest of these potatoes. I'm off to chill with Ike."

"I'm coming with you," said Chrom.

Robin and Cloud looked at each other and nodded simultaneously.

"I guess we'll all be hanging with the mercenary," said Marth cheerily. "Let me know when Samus and Sheik return so we can stop worrying. Caio."

"I feel popular," said Ike, glancing around at them all. He opened the grill and poked at the foil covered turkeys before closing the metal lid again. "Did Ganondorf find the football yet?"

"We found it for him," said Ness, running up. "It's flat."

"I've got a pump somewhere," said Marth. "I'll be right back."

"How can you even play football, Ganon?" asked Link as Ganondorf walked up, Lucas and Kirby behind him.

"I'm just defense," returned Ganondorf, folding his arms. "I like crushing people's bones like toothpicks."

"Yeah," said Cloud and Ike simultaneously. Both glanced at each other and exchanged winks.

"Oh, har, har," said Link.

"Like you could catch me," Chrom smirked, raising an eyebrow.

Robin shrugged. "I think I'll just use my thunder."

"That's against the rules!" insisted Ike. "We need a ref."

"How about both Robins," suggested Marth, returning with a pump. He took the football and began inflating it.

"Good idea," nodded Cloud. "Why football, though?"

"Yeah," agreed Ganondorf. "We should play something else. Rugby."

"That's basically the same thing except more violent," accused Ness.

"I know."

Ike chuckled as Roy walked up. "It's two touch football, guys. We want to let the girls play too if they feel like it."

"That'll be interesting," muttered Cloud.

"I can't really imagine Peach or Zelda or Rosalina running around…" Link mused.

"Lucina could," Chrom spoke up. "She can do anything."

"Stop being such a proud father," Roy groaned. "I mean, it's bad enough she's from the past so you're almost the same age and you haven't even gotten married yet."

"Yeah, well it's not my fault," Chrom snapped. "Marth is my ancestor. He's two thousand years older than I am to be realistic and he isn't married."

"I still want to know why we play football on Thanksgiving," continued Cloud, turning to give Marth a hard, questioning gaze.

The prince raised his hands defensively, dropping the ball into Kirby's open mouth on accident. "I don't even like football," he protested. "I was going to keep score."

"No way!" Roy argued. "You're going to be my runner."

"Actually," contradicted Marth, "As I just previously stated, I'm going to keep score."

"You can't."

"Roy, I am perfectly capable of figuring out what I can and cannot do. And I can write and count, so I can keep score." He grinned. "Besides, who says you were quarterback?"

"Not quarterback," said Roy. "I can't throw a tennis ball straight. Just team captain. I want a dream team."

"Tough beans," said Ike. "Hey, by the way, did you guys hear who's coming for Thanksgiving?"

"What do you mean?" asked Chrom.

"Oh, never mind. You'll see." He glanced at Marth and winked.

"I don't like what's going on," said Roy, accusingly.

"It'll be fun," Link encouraged, grinning slyly. "Well, I think I'll give Sheik a call to see where she and Samus are at…"

"Hey, guys!" said Samus, walking up with two bags filled with cans of cranberry sauce. "Sorry we were late. We made the mistake of bringing Meta Knight with us and…"

"Look, just because I accidentally knocked down that stack of pumpkins, doesn't mean I can't be trusted in stores!" the flying blueberry exclaimed, landing next to Ike. "What is that smell?"

"It's my turkeys burning!" shouted Ike. "Beat it all of you before I seriously wound you with my sword!"

The smashers glanced at each other and hastily scattered.

Despite the fact that Wario and Kirby both caused trouble that related to eating some food prematurely and the fact that the wing of one of the turkeys had caught on fire, and that Pit, trying to set up decorations, accidentally knocked two glasses off the table and broke them (Dark Pit cleaned it up), they still got everything ready by three o'clock.

"All right, Mac!" yelled Samus. "Call everyone to come eat."

"I'm busy!"

"Ryu!" Samus shouted. "Call everyone to the table!"

"I'm getting changed!"

"What on earth? It's just a meal!"

"It's Thanksgiving, Samus," said Zelda, sweeping into the dining room and turning on the electric crystal chandelier. She was wearing a new fall colored gown and she giggled. "Isn't this fun? Do you have an orange and brown suit or something?"

Samus blinked. "I guess so. I should change, huh?"

"Go ahead. You'll be back in plenty of time."

Peach leaned over and whispered to Mario, "Isn't this fun? Look. Lucas is wearing a bow tie! And Ganondorf actually found a tuxedo that would fit!"

"Captain Falcon!" exclaimed Sheik. " What happened to your mask?"

"You don't wear masks to holiday dinners," he said, chuckling. He spotted her mask, still on, and sobered instantly. "I mean…"

She pulled it off and shook out her blonde bangs, giving him a wry smirk. "Well then."

"Nice cape, Ike," said Roy, laughing as Ike entered.

The mercenary stuck out his tongue at the red haired swordsman and sat down between Marth and Cloud with a huff. "Look, Marth is just letting me borrow this. I'm going back to my nice and ratty one tomorrow."

"You should keep Marth's," suggested Rosalina.

Ike frowned at her. "Why, because?"

She blushed. "No reason. You look good in anything." She blushed harder and there was a brief moment of silence until King Dedede waddled in and fit himself into his big, custom-made chair. "Seriously, what are we waiting for?"

"Don't we have to say grace, or something?" asked Fox.

"Yeah," agreed Falcon.

"I'll do it," said Pit. "Our Father, for what we are about to receive… make us truly happy."

"Pit!" Corrin F hissed. "It's Thanksgiving!"

"Oh. Make us truly thankful. Amen."

"Amen," the smashers echoed, sitting down in their seats.

Wario's body was stretched across the table reaching for the turkey when Ike grabbed him by the collar and jerked him back into his seat. "Ahem. Wario."

"What?"

"We have to go around saying what we're thankful for first," Zelda prompted.

"I'll go first," said Link, grinning. "I'm thankful for Zelda and her wise words and actions. And I'm thankful that we're a nice smash family."

Everyone smiled at each other.

Zelda was thankful for Link and his hair. Toon Link was thankful for Zelda.

"Someone's popular," said Ganondorf. He was thankful for Zelda too, because she was understanding.

Marth was thankful for Corrie (Corrin F) and Corrie was thankful for him. Everyone rolled their eyes, but smiled, even while Corrin M folded his arms and said he was thankful for guys who left his sister alone.

"That would be most of us," Roy pointed out with a grin.

Kirby was thankful for food and Meta Knight was thankful for his sword. Mario was thankful for Luigi and Luigi was thankful for his courageous brother. Peach was thankful for Bowser Junior, even though he was annoying. She laughed and Bowser, who had given a growl, relaxed, and said he was thankful Peach babysat his kid. Ike said he was thankful for cute little animals who were difficult to fight and added that he was thankful that blondes weren't actually stupid. Rosalina raised her eyebrows at him and he winked. "Yes, that includes you."

Roy gave a low whistle and Ike bumped him with his elbow. Roy was thankful that everyone was pretty nice for the most part. Robin F was thankful for Chrom, who was thankful for her and Lucina. Lucina was thankful for Robin M and he was thankful for her.

"You guys are making it all about couples," complained Samus.

"I'm thankful for my sword and friends," said Cloud coldly.

"You don't sound thankful," Dark Pit accused him.

"Be nice," Pit told his counterpart. "I'm thankful for my wings and my best friend, Pittoo."

"Me too," said the dark angel, beaming.

"I'm thankful for my Luma," said Rosalina. "And all things golden." She smiled at her pudgy star.

"Like Ike's blade?" prompted Little Mac.

"Sure, since it's golden," she returned primly.

Going around the table took a long time and Wario's stomach was heard multiple times. King Dedede was thankful for food and that he was the third to last smasher to 'be thankful' because he was starving. Palutena was thankful for friends that were interested in what she was interested in, and smiled at Peach, who smiled back.

Samus was the last and she took a deep breath and said, "I'm thankful… I'm thankful that…"

"Hello!" said a husky voice from the doorway. "Sorry, I'm late. My flight was delayed."

Everyone turned in their seats to see who the speaker was. A scream of delight erupted from Samus and she knocked over her chair and practically flew over to the figure. "Snake!"

The two embraced.

"Well, lookee who's here!" said Ike, rising from his chair. "You made it."

Snake, releasing himself from Samus' crushing hug, took her hand, and gave a lopsided grin. "Yes, I did. Wouldn't miss it for the world. Lot's of new faces. Yo, dudes. I'm Solid Snake."

"Are you Samus' boyfriend?" asked Ryu.

Snake pursed his lips. "Oh… Ask her." He winked at Samus.

Her smile lit up her face. "We'd be engaged if he wasn't so busy."

"Yeah," Snake agreed. "Now, where's my seat?"

Pit and Corrin F both blushed.

"I forgot you were coming," Pit acknowledged sheepishly.

"I didn't know you were coming," Corrin blushed.

"It's alright, Corrie," Marth said, putting his arm around her. "We'll just set it up real quick. Snake's always been cool."

"On a number of levels," the spy added.

Pit and Dark Pit both set an extra place, right beside Samus, as quickly as possible and Snake took his seat. "So, where were you guys in your Thanksgiving dinner?"

"It was my turn to be thankful," said Samus, brushing tears from her blue eyes. "And I'm very, very thankful that Snake could come back for Thanksgiving."

"That's mine too," said Snake, chuckling. "Glad to be back with friends."

"Okay!" Dedede exploded. "We're done! Let's eat!"

Wario yanked a leg off one of the turkeys before anyone could say anything else and Dedede stuffed his mitt into the mashed potato bowl. It set off a protest from most of the females, and set the males off to grab as much food as they could before Wario, Kirby, and Dedede could eat everything.

Throughout the meal, Peach, Rosalina, Zelda, Link, and all the rest who had helped with the food were complimented until they blushed. Ike was very pleased at the success of his turkeys and tried to shrug off the praise by complaining about the single burnt wing.

"Don't be such a humble person," said Marth, rolling his eyes and grinning. "It's delicious. Admit it."

"Yes," Ike admitted. "It is delicious. But I say all meat is delicious."

"That's true," said Palutena. "But Pittoo doesn't necessarily think so. He doesn't usually eat meat." All looked at Dark Pit. His mouth was full of a turkey leg.
"Chew with your mouth closed," said Palutena, winking.

He rolled his eyes.

Corrie was vegetarian, but Marth convinced her to try some turkey. She still didn't like it and Ike pretended to be offended until Corrin called him out on it and Rosalina gave him a disapproving look.

Samus and Snake barely ate anything. Both talked the entire time, catching up on everything. Snake's 'business' was secret and he couldn't keep in contact with Samus through letters or cellphones, so they were trying to fit one year into one meal and had no time for food.

"Okay!" exclaimed Ryu. "Who wants to play football?"

"I"m so full!" exclaimed Roy. "I couldn't run without barfing!"

"Roy," growled Cloud. "That's improper table discussion. Besides, if you don't work off your food now, how on earth will you be able to eat dessert?"

"Good point," said Roy, pushing back his chair. "Let's go! Lucina, you wanna play? Chrom said you were fast."

"Faster than fast," she said, smirking. "Faster than… Robin."

Robin turned a fiery red and glared at her.

"I'm kidding," she giggled, giving him a peck on the cheek. "Though 'tis true."

He rolled his eyes. "I think I was volunteered to be ref, if I remember correctly."

"Right!" said Chrom, leaping to his feet. "Come on Marth. Ike. Cloud." He turned to Robin F. "Honey, you wanna keep score?"
"Not fair," Marth pointed out. "I already claimed that."

"Don't be a wimp," said Corrin. "Prove to Corrie that you're actually cool, not just because you have the most followers of all of us on Facebook."

"Actually, Link's beating me now," Marth argued.

"No," contradicted Link. "You're five ahead of me."

Marth rolled his eyes. "I'll play."

Link grinned. "Hey, Zel, you wanna join?"

"I'm good," she responded. "But I'll definitely watch. Samus, will you play?"

"Duh," she responded. "Snake?"

He shrugged. "Never was good at football, but I can throw grenades like anything, if you guys didn't know, so I'll be QB."

"Done!" exclaimed Roy. "Come on!"

"Hang on," commanded Cloud, pointing at Pitt and Pittoo. "There has to be a rule against flying."

"Okay," said Robin.

"And," Cloud continued, "there has to be a rule against swallowing the ball." He pointed to Kirby and Dedede.

"Definitely," Robin agreed. "Spit all over the ball… Kirby spit. Come to think of it, I think Kirby doesn't have spit… Or maybe it's just invisible saliva."

"Robin!" Lucina exclaimed. "That's disgusting."

"I think I'm sick," said Little Mac. "Let's just go! I'm linebacker!"

The football game was termed interesting by Palutena and Peach. Everyone but a few girls played. Obviously there were problems. Kirby didn't always remember the 'no swallowing' rule and Duck Hunt didn't realize there was an 'in bounds' and 'out of bounds'. He ran away with the ball twice. Meta Knight could barely catch the ball and he could barely run on his short little legs, so Robin M ended up making the decision that, only in Meta Knight's case, could he fly, but not higher than one foot off the ground. Meta Knight didn't complain.

Snake and Corrin were the two quarterbacks. Ryu, Little Mac, and Ike were the three best defenders. Wario was on defense as well, and so was Bowser Junior (in his helicopter pod) and Pac Man. There was considerable complaint when, at one point, all three ended up biting Ryu, Mac, and Ike.

"I call foul!" Ike roared. "That is just not even…!"

"Robin, that has to be against the rules!" Ryu shouted.

"Actually," said Robin, raising his eyebrows. "We didn't make a rule against chewing on other players."

"Then you come over here and be on defense!" snapped Mac, folding his arms.

"But I agree that it should be a rule," Robin added quickly. He grinned. "It can't be a foul this time, but from now on, got it? Bowser Jr, you better control your pod."

The 'chewing' only happened one more time. It was Wario's fault and he bit Snake, who 'bit' him back.

"I'm going to disqualify you!" Robin M snapped. "Foul for both! That means… Nothing happens."

Snake's team ended up beating Corrin's, 45-35. Chrom got two touchdowns, Marth got one, Lucas got one, Lucina got one, Pit got two, Ness got one, Cloud got three, Samus got one, and Link kicked a field goal.

"Oh, yes!" laughed Snake, giving his team high fives.

"Who was your coach?" asked Corrin.

"We didn't have one," said Snake. "I sort of was the coach."

"Well, then. Pit and Pitttoo?"

The two angels flew up with a container of icy water and Snake was drenched.

"What the…! You suffering, sons of…!" he sputtered.

"Let's go have a dessert," said Marth hastily. He grabbed Corrie's hand and the smashers headed inside.

"Delicious, Zelda!" exclaimed Little Mac.

"Thanks," she beamed. "Link picked the pumpkin from the garden, so it's home grown."

"I'm digging these pecans in the pie," said Ike.

"I like the apple best," said Chrom.

"Liar!" exclaimed Roy. "You said pumpkin was your favorite!"

"I change my mind every Thanksgiving," he returned, giving Robin F a sly grin.

She smirked back and patted him on the shoulder. "Well, I will always like coconut cream."

"Me too!" agreed Lucina.

"Snake, when do you have to leave?" asked Marth.

Samus turned desperately to look him in the eyes. "Is your business urgent?"

"They gave me three days leave," he said, smiling. "But the better news is that they've been wanting to loosen up my schedule for a while now, since I've been doing such a good job, so they're letting me come here for the holidays."

Samus blinked and grabbed him around the neck, giving him a smacking kiss on the cheek.

"Eww!" said Ness, turning away. Lucas giggled.

"Congrats, bro!" Ike exclaimed. "We'll look forward to seeing you… for the rest of these days and then come Christmas… That's awesome!"

"Yes, it is," Snake responded, nodding. "Because I'm awesome."

"This was the best Thanksgiving we've ever had," said Samus, glowing with happiness.

"I don't know," contradicted Roy. "Ike's turkey was even better last year."

"Oh, be quiet," Marth said. "Thanksgiving gets better every year. You always have more to be thankful for."

There we are! Enjoy! Happy Thanksgiving! Which Smasher are y'all thankful for? Definitely Ike for me! The dude rocks!
