I wrote this a while ago, but I didn't know if I should post it or not. Well this is what my brain comes up with...
Pairings: IkexLink or IkexMarth, we'll see how the story goes
Warnings:M for later chapters, Yaoi
A cool breeze hit the blue haired man as he stepped out of his taxi, and stared up at the mansion he would call his home for now. It had a very English feel to it. It was surrounded by a cobbled wall that teemed with ivy. Fallen leaves lay in the front yard giving it a golden layer. From where he stood he could hear the clanking of swords and the noise of powers being used. He had been chosen to fight and train with the best of the best. There was a mix of villains and heroes who trained and fought each other. He was considered a hero.
He paid the taxi driver and, grabbing his suitcases made his way through the front gate and up the stone steps that led to a wooden door. He grabbed hold of the knocker and knocked on the door, he was then greeted by a short man clad in a red shirt covered by overalls.
''You must be the new guy Ike, right?'' he asked with a thick Italian accent. Ike nodded his head. ''Alright then follow me to your room,'' he said signaling for Ike to follow him. Ike grabbed hold of his suitcases and followed him up winding stairs.
''My name is Mario by the way,'' said the short man as they reached the floor he would be staying on and stopped in front of a door. ''This is your room, you'll be sharing it with someone else though,'' he said as he fumbled for the key. Finally finding it in his front pocket he unlocked the door. Ike entered to find a very lovely room. The color scheme was a dark royal blue and cream color. There was cream colored carpet that covered the huge room that looked as soft as a cloud. Two beds stood at either end of the room. Both covered by royal blue drapes. The beds were furnished with similar blue pillows and cream comforters. The walls contrasted the room perfectly as they were cream with a blue trim.
''This place is nice,'' Ike commented as he sat down on one of the beds.
''Well I'm glad it's to your liking,'' Mario said. ''Let me lay down the rules though, Breakfast starts at eight in the morning sharp, lunch at one, and dinner at six. Training is held all day and tournaments commence every Saturday. Showers are downstairs and the bathroom is down the hall. If you have any more questions I'm sure your roommate will have the answers, okay?''
''Yeah,yeah sure I got it,'' said Ike absently still marveling at the room. Mario sighed and left the key on a desk and left. Ike snapped out of it at the sound of the door shutting. He looked over at the desk and saw an open book. Curiosity getting the better of him he approached the desk and picked up the book. He looked at the open page.
Thursday November 4th
Dear Diary,
This morning was crazy. I had training with Zelda and Ness today. I think it's that time of the month for Zelda because she put a lot of anger into her attacks. Girls. I tell you...anyway I'm getting a new roommate this afternoon. His name is Ike. I hope-
''What are you doing?'' Ike jumped at the sudden voice dropping the diary on the ground.
Oh sorry...I was just um,''
''Reading my diary?,'' the man asked reaching down to grab his diary. Ike looked at the person who's privacy he had just violated. He was stunned. How could someone be that beautiful and be a man? His hair was the same color as his, but a little lighter. On the middle of his head sat a crown. His face had a feminine touch to it. His fingers were dainty as they grabbed the diary and clutched it for all it was worth.
''Um I didn't catch your name,'' Ike said.
''Marth,'' he said rolling his eyes. Ike smiled. ''Well I think you already know me though, right?'' Marth frowned at him and turned away putting his diary in a drawer on his bedside table.
''Um I'm sorry, let's start again, okay?'' Ike said extending his hand to Marth. Marth stood there for a moment staring at Ike's hand. He sighed and shook it.
''There we go, I'm Ike,'' he said. Marth smiled at him. Well I guess this won't be all bad.
''So Mario told me you'd be able to tell me anything I need to know?'' Marth nodded sitting down on his bed. ''So where's the kitchen?''
''Downstairs, you can't miss it,'' Marth said laying down. ''You'd better hurry though, cause they stop serving at seven, and it's six-forty right now,'' Marth continued turning towards the wall.
''Aren't you going?'' Ike asked.
''No, I'm not hungry, I've been training all day, so I just wanna sleep,'' he said. Ike shrugged and took off his cape and headed downstairs.
In his rush to get to the food he ran into someone. They both toppled and he was face to face with a blonde who was on top of him. The man on top of him blushed furiously.
''Uh...sorry,'' he said getting off of Ike quickly. He extended his hand down and Ike grabbed it. When they were both standing Ike couldn't help think how pretty this guy was. Why are there so many beautiful people here? Shouldn't they be worrying about their hair and wardrobe instead of fighting? I guess I should wonder the same thing about myself...
''I'm Link by the way, you must be Ike, right?'' Link asked looking down scratching his arm. This guy was really handsome, thought Link. And muscular too. Just his type.
''Yeah,'' a voice said snapping Link out of his thoughts.
''Oh are you headed down to dinner?''
''Yeah I am but I'm about to miss it,'' Ike said searching for a clock.
''Oh sorry, but on your first night I'm sure they'll be lenient,'' Link said as they started for dinner again.
''Good 'cause I'm starving,'' Ike said grabbing his stomach for emphasis.
Link giggled as they continued heading for the kitchen.
"So, what's on the menu?" Ike asked.
"Well when I was down there I had steak and broccoli. They pretty much have everything down there, from burgers to chicken to fish, there's a lot to choose from."
They stopped at the bottom of the stairs that led to an enormous room. Half of the room looked to be the den, with a huge flat screen television, and a couch that was shaped like a half square that looked big enough to sit up to twenty people, made of black leather. The floor was a beautiful cherry wood that pulled the colors of the wall, which was a semi light burgundy, together. The other half of the room looked to be a dining hall. A long table sat in the middle with name cards in front of the chair. Next to the table sat a long buffet table. Ike began to panic when workers were already taking up the food.
"Shit!" he cursed running towards the food. He grabbed a plate and took everything in sight. He sighed with relief when he sat down with his plate. Link walked over to him giggling. It was then that Ike noticed other people at the table with him. Across from him sat a woman with an elfin face similar to that of Link. She wore and elegant dress that was a mixture of black and white. Her hair was also white. She stared at Ike with amusement glittering in her eyes.
"Is this the new smasher?" she asked adressing Link. "Ah, no wonder..." she trailed off eyeing Ike with interest. "What is your weapon mercenary?" Ike looked up at her surprised. How did she know?
"Er...I use a sword," he stammered as he looked into those intimidating eyes that seemed to draw him in. She glanced at him once more before getting up.
"Sleep well mercenary, you and I train together tomorrow after breakfast, and please...don't be tardy." She turned around and left. Ike looked at Link with a confused expression.
"That's Zelda, she's a very intellegent individual. She's the princess of Hyrule, where we both live. She was probably sizing you up, don't get on her bad side though."
"She's a bitch."
Ike looked over to see who had said that and saw a woman standing near the table wearing a white shirt and camouflage pants*. She had blonde hair tied back in a ponytail and a gun holstered on her belt.
"Hey, I'm Samus Aran." she said holding out her hand for Ike to shake. He did so surprised at the firm hold she had.
"Don't pay any mind to Zelda the Queen of Snots * She's never any fun to be around. She hangs out with Princess Peach, the most arrogant bitch known to man. Her mother fricken crown gets me all the time when we brawl. I have a match with her tomorrow, so wish me luck with that one." She turned away and headed up the stairs. Ike turned to Link.
"You'll get used to everything, I promise," he said trying to reassure Ike.
"Let's hope so..."
*I felt that when Samus isn't fighting she should be wearing normal clothes, but I still wanted her to feel like a military person.
*Wasn't this line from Everlost? I had it in my head and couldn't resist using it.
