Hi Everyone!

This is my first published story I ever made, so please feel free to give advice on how to improve if you'd like.

This took me a while to write so I hope you enjoy! ^_^

"But I don't want to go." Marth complains to his roommate, Link.

"You have to. Come on... Maybe you'll make some new friends." He says, pulling him up off his bed.

"Alright fine, I'll go. But it better be worth it." Marth grabs his clothes off the nightstand and heads into the bathroom to change. He's not the type to like to meet new people but he decides to try so Link will stop bugging him about it.

When he's fully dressed he steps outside the bathroom and waits by the door to leave. "Okay, let's go now." Marth says, while impatiently tapping his foot. Link walks up to him and opens the door before Marth has a chance to, "After you, princess." He holds it open and motions his hand for him to go. Marth doesn't respond and walks outside the door. "Don't even try. I'm not in the mood." They both head down the hall and go downstairs to the auditorium. Link tries to start up a conversation every once in a while on the way there, but Marth just stops him from doing so.

"Let's just get this over with." Marth mumbles as they both look for seats. The only ones they see available are in the second row. "Ugh, why do we have to be so close?"

"Stop complaining." Link sternly says to him as they sit down in their seats.

"Today is a very special day," Mario starts as he is making his way to the middle of the stage, "Today we are going to be introducing all of the newcomers into Smash Manor."

Everyone applauds except for Marth. "First off, I'll be introducing Ganondorf," A very tall man walks out onto the stage with a big grin on his face. "He is the holder of the Power of the Triforce and is also the evil King of the Gerudo Thieves. Everyone watch out, for the all mighty Ganondorf!" Cheers fill the room, along with a couple of screams of fear. "WHAT?" Link shouts.

"Next up we have Toon Link," A guy a little more than half the size of Mario walks onto the stage, waving to everyone. "He is a miniature version of Link, except he is more agile but with a downside of less powerful attacks. Everyone give it up for Toon Link!" Everyone shouts in excitement, but again, Link whines, "So UNFAIR!" He crosses his arms and pouts.

"Now we have Pit," An angel with vast white wings walks out onto the stage. Marth's eyes widen in shock, H-He looks AMAZING… Wait, what am I thinking? "He is an angel from Angel Land and lives in Skyworld. His duty is to protect the humans by leading his Goddess Palutena's army against evil. Soaring through the skies at high speeds, everyone give a round of applause for Pit!" Everyone, including Marth (surprisingly), claps for him and he can't keep his eyes off the boy. He's so beautiful...

"This, everyone, is Ike of the Greil Mercenaries." A guy about a few years older looking than Marth with a similar hair color steps out on the stage, "He wields with him, a two handed sword named Ragnell. But as you can see, he only holds it with one! Possibly the strongest man alive, here's Ike!" They all cheer and gasp in shock.

For the rest of the ceremony, Mario introduces the rest of the newcomers. The regulars all exit the auditorium except for one. Marth decides to stay behind and introduce himself to a certain someone. He walks over to Pit, who is quietly standing with the rest of the newcomers, and starts up a conversation with him. "Hi, my name is Marth. You're Pit right?"

He looks up and sees a man about 2 inches taller staring down at him. "Yes, that's me. Nice to meet you Marth. By the way, your crown is very nice. Are you a prince by any chance?" Pit asks him.

"Well it's a memento from my sister and yes I am." He smiles at him and grows a faint blush. Why do I feel so... weird around him...? This is so confusing...

"It's so cool being able to meet royalty, I mean like you're famous and-" Pit's words are interrupted by those of Master Hand's. "Attention all newcomers, please head to the main lobby for your room assignments." The crowd all head into the other room. "Well Pit, It was nice talking to you. I'll be in room 152 if you ever need anything. Bye." Marth walks away and when he did he felt... emptiness.

He heads up to his room and locks the door behind him. "There you are!" Link says when Marth turns around, making him jump up. "Whoa, calm down, it's only me." He chuckles a bit then continues watching TV. Marth goes over to his bed and sits down on the edge. He flops back and lets out a big sigh. He's a boy for crying out loud... a boy!

He gets back up and goes over to sit on the couch next to Link. He quietly watches TV for about 20 more minutes then hears a knock on the door. "I'll get it!" Marth quickly shouts as he runs to the door. He opens it and smiles when he sees who's there, "Pit! Hey! What's up?"

He smiles back at him, "Hey Marth! So they gave me room number 154, which means its right next to yours. But anyways, I was wondering if you wanted to walk with me and my roommate, Ike, to the cafeteria. Maybe your roommate could come too if he wants." Marth looks back at his friend, whose eyes are still glued to the TV. "Hey Link, want to come down to the cafeteria with us for some lunch? I'll cook for us all." He presses the power button on the remote and stands up.

"Sure." Throughout the walk there, they all introduce each other and realize they get along rather well. "Okay everyone, I'm going to go to the kitchen to make us food. Find a table and I'll meet you there when I'm ready." Marth walks away from the group and goes to the kitchen to make some food for the four of them.

Ike, Link, and Pit search around for a table and find an available one near the outside door. Ike and Pit sit down on opposite ends of the table, leaving Link to choose who to sit next to. Oooo... I got a little something for the mercenary. It's time to have some fun with this guy... He sits next to the unsuspecting victim, Ike.

"So, Ike..." Link smiles and scoots closer to him. Ike tries to move further away, but Link just comes closer. Soon enough, they are both cramped next to each other at the end of the table. Pit stares at them with a confused look, but gets up a few seconds later, "I gotta use the bathroom. Be back in a few."

Link turns to the mercenary and talks very close to him, "What made you decide to join Brawl?" Ike's face turns dark red at the close contact. What is he doing? He's so close to me... "Um, uhh... I don't... um, know..." Is all he manages to get out. Link takes full advantage of those few words.

"Oh, come on..." He whispers in his ear, "You must have a reason..." He places his hand on Ike's thigh and slowly moves up, reaching very close to his area.

"Shit!" Ike quietly says to himself, but apparently, Link had heard him, "Hmm? What was that?" He uses his other hand and places it under Ike's shirt. He quickly stands up and backs away from the Hylian.

"S-Stop it... please." Ike begs him. Link just grabs his hand and pulls him down again to his seat, "What's wrong?" He whispers as he lifts himself up slightly to sit on the mercenary's lap. "Link!" Ike gasps as his face starts to turn red. "Yes?" He asks, while turning around so he is now facing Ike, still sitting on his lap.

"Uhh, Link?" He looks up and sees a familiar figure looking back at him, Pit. Damn it... Well just because he's here now, it doesn't mean I have to stop... This is just too much fun...

"Oh, hey there Pit." He smiles and turns around, as Pit walks over to his seat. "How are you?"

"Why are you sitting on Ike's lap? Would you mind getting off? It's kind of... umm... awkward..."

Link nods his head and gets off of his lap, but still sits close to him. Maybe he actually... likes me. Maybe he just doesn't really know what to do. But why would he act so soon? It's only my first day here... Ike thinks to himself, and looks down at the table.

Time for part two... Link grabs Ike's arm and snuggles against it. Ike looks up suddenly when he feels the soft, warm cheeks of the Hylian rubbing against his own skin. Let's see just how far I can go with this... "You're SO strong. You must work out a lot. Maybe we can train together sometime. How's that?" he lets go of Ike's arm and places his hand on top of his, which is resting on the table. Ike stutters when he answers, "S-s-sure." He manages to give a small smile, but at the same time, removes his hand from under Link's.

"Sooooo..." Pit starts, trying to change the topic, "Oh look! Marth's back!" They all turn their attention to the blue-haired prince walking back with four plates of food. "Okay, so I made us all fried chicken and homemade French fries. I hope you guys like it." Everyone thanks Marth as they get handed their plate of food. "Wow, this tastes so amazing," Pit says, while stuffing food into his mouth. Marth chuckles, "Why thank you, my little angel." Pit's eyes widen at the statement. Marth quickly changes his words, "Um, I mean Pit..."

Link starts to think devious again as he is eating his food. So, it's pretty obvious that Marth has a little crush on angel boy here... He didn't tell me he's gay. Well then again, he doesn't tell me much of anything. Gods, I didn't think I would have to do this much work. Marth's going to HATE me for this. Well, it'll probably benefit him sometime... "So, Marth, you're into angels, huh?" Link says in a sly tone. Marth glares at him, then his face quickly blushes when he realizes the angel himself, is staring at him, "What do you mean by that?" Link gives him a big smile, "You know exactly what I mean by that. Don't play dumb with me. You like him."

Pit covers his mouth in shock and Marth angrily shouts at Link, "No I do not!" He quickly tries to change the subject, "And while you were too busy eating, Pit told me something that happened between you and the mercenary while I was gone. How you were flirting with him." Link somehow does not seem at all phased by this, "Quit thinking you've got something against me, because you don't. I was only playing with him. So if you think I actually like another guy, you're wrong."

"So this was all some kind of... game." Ike asks, hurt shown in his eyes. He had finally thought that someone actually liked him, cared about him. Even though it was shown in some perverted manner, it was something. Tears start to weld in his eyes. "Whoa dude, take it easy." Link put his hand on his shoulder but Ike just pushes it away. "Don't take it too seriously. I was just joking around." Tears start to slowly flow down Ike's cheeks, "Don't go near me! I never want to speak to you again!"

He slaps Link's cheek, making it turn very red. "OW! Dude, what gives?" Ike just stomps away, leaving half of his food untouched. Marth and Pit's attention turns to the Hylian, who is rubbing his cheek, trying to soothe the pain. "That was really mean, what you did to him. Though it was just a joke to you, it meant much more to him," Marth grabs his and Ike's plate, and throws them both away. He goes back to the table and grabs Pit by his wrist, leaving Link alone at the table.

I didn't expect things to go THAT way. I just thought he was going to laugh about it. Not slap me in the face. Well, I guess I kind of deserved it. Maybe I should go apologize to him; I mean I DID make him cry... Link heads upstairs to Ike and Pit's room. What room number did they say again? Oh right, 154. He knocks on the door quick, and then opens it. He finds Pit and Marth sitting next to Ike on the bed, each with a hand on his shoulder, comforting him.

"Ike? Ike, are you okay?" Link walks up to him and stands in front of the bed. Ike tries and talks through his crying, "Just, just go away..." Ugh, this is not working out. Maybe I'll just... give him hope. I can see he's very hurt by what I did to him so I'll try to make him feel better. Link puts both of his hands on the mercenary's legs, leans over and pushes his lips onto the other's. Ike instantly blushes and both Marth and Pit take their hand off of his shoulder. Link also begins to blush as he continues to keep his lips pressed against Ike's. What is going on? Ike thinks, as he lets himself get lost in the warmth of his kiss.

Well this is the end of Chapter 1!
