Roy glanced over his shoulder. Would Ness quit following him around? Ever since Ness had watched that dumb detective movie, he was trying to find out about everyone. It annoyed everyone, Roy mostly. The only person, in fact, that Ness didn't interview (But he really wanted to) was Sheik. Then again, everyone knew, Zelda was Sheik. But Sheik had much more to her life, spying on things and knowing things other people didn't know. She kept them all to herself. Zelda was just… well Zelda. So were Link, and the rest of the gang. Marth… Roy scowled silently. He hated Marth, ever since Marth had been acting like some deluded weirdo.
Roy knew that Ness was still following him. He stalked to his room, but when he reached to his door room he spun around and grabbed Ness's shirt and pulled him upward to his eye level.
"Stop following me!" He shouted into his face.
"S-Sorry…"
"I know you aren't."
"I just wanted to know why you like fire."
"Because fire kills way more painfully, and besides being hot is just… ME!"
Ness struggled to break free, but he didn't have to. As luck would have it, Peach strolled across the hallway, singing sweetly to herself. She was dressed in her original pink dress. She stopped short upon the little dilemma.
"What the hell is going on here, for crying out loud!" She cried out loud.
"H- Roy's trying to kill me!"
"I am not you little…" Roy raised his fist into a big punch but as it was about to go down on the poor boy, the two soft white gloves which belonged to Zelda.
"Stop it Roy! I'm warning you! You know how dangerous I can get." Everyone knew that Zelda looked feminine but was actually quite dangerous when she wanted to be.
"Get out of the way you stupid broad!"
That did it. Well to Zelda anyway. She raised her hands and concentrated on her magic. Sure enough her hands glowed a deep blue.
She hissed, "I warned you Roy, you know how I don't like being called that. I don't want to put up with your temper, and neither does anyone else." With that she released the magic, hitting him squarely in the stomach.
Doubling up in pain, he clenched his stomach. Ness seemed to be long gone. Not that it mattered.
"Zelda, I think you took it too far. He doesn't look too good." Peach said worriedly.
"Who cares?"
"Well… No one…" Peach admitted rather reluctantly.
"Let's leave."
"But, we can't leave him here all alone!"
"Trust me Peach, we can." Zelda irritably responded, gritting her teeth.
Grabbing Peach's hand she stalked off leaving Roy alone, on the floor, his head down.
Roy's Point of View (Note: Instead of Point of View, I'm just going to put POV to make it shorter)
I could hear footsteps. What did it matter? I mean, who cared about me anyway? No body… Peach was just wasting her breath pretending feeling sorry for me. I laughed just for the heck of it. Then I scrambled to my feet when I heard footsteps. I quickly turned the doorknob of his door to avoid the person who was coming.
"Oh it's you… Hi…" I grumbled at the small child. "Where's you buddy, Popo?"
"He's eating; I wanted to tell you something Roy."
"Oh really? What would that be?" I asked sarcasm dripping in my voice.
"Yep! I wanted to tell you that… that"
That what? I wondered.
"That you're my model!"
"Really?"
"No!" She laughed and fell on the floor laughing, her hood falling off her nut brown hair.
"That does it!" I screamed and slammed the door shut in her face.
(Note: Back to the general POV)
Link aimed his arrow at the target, about a mile away. He could he could feel the tenseness in the air. Calm down Link take a deep breath and this will be over, he thought. He aimed his arrow and fired and heard a thump. Apparently had hit his target. He dashed across to the target and felt a smile playing across his face. Pride swelled up inside him as he saw he hit a bull's eye right in the heart of the white circle.
BANG! Link spun around and aimed his arrow. The tenseness was still inside him. He relieved his arrow when he saw it was only Zelda in a bad mood. He walked outside not wanting to get into her bad mood. Zelda seemed a little pissed off lately for the smallest things. He frowned strutting across the hallway. As he passed a door he felt a bit curious. He could hear a muffled rage.
"First Ness, now Nana, I WISH THOSE B-"
Link stepped away from the door and stared at the door in utter astonishment. It was Roy's room! Link knew it wasn't right but he put his delicate elf ears toward the door, trying to pick out what he was saying. But Roy wasn't saying anything, in fact, he began to… Link cleaned his ear and pressed it tightly against the door. Why was Roy… crying! He had always thought Roy to be dark, and mysterious, and moody, in fact, he was the last person all the Smashers expected to cry, even Sheik and Ganondorf. Link heard stomping toward the door and Link quickly flattened himself to the wall.
The door thudded open and Link repressed a groan from the door that hit him. He saw an angry swordsman pad down the hallway in a silent fume.
Once Roy was gone Link walked into the room that looked several days unkempt. Paper balls were strewn across the floor and his desk was covered in pens and gum wrappers. The black ink from a broken pen had created a dark pool around itself. Link's nose quickly picked up the strong smell. His nose wrinkled up in distaste as he surveyed the messy room. He bent down silently to pick up a crumpled piece of paper.
It was a childish drawing. It showed someone being hung. Link smoothed out the crumpled paper to get a look on his face and swallowed. It looked like Roy, Marth, or… him!
Don't jump to conclusions he silently scolded himself and thought how that could lead him in a bad spot. However his instincts were sure that Roy, as the artist of this drawing, could be perhaps plotting something. Link backed away from the desk and away from the room and broke off into a silent run…
(A/N This part is not Roy's POV but, I'm like writing omniscient, like I'm inside his head and recording down what he's thinking)
Roy entered his room with his belly quite full and for once he was content. He stopped short and surveyed his dirty room. And threw a glance on his desk and walked towards it quickly. He drew in a short breath as he saw that someone had been looking at his private information. He blinked in surprise. That paper… Something wasn't right. Oh well… He grabbed the paper and tore it to shreds and threw it at the air. As he watched the pieces flutter to the floor his anger built up. Why had someone entered his room? Who had gone into his room? His first thought was Ness. That stupid kid would never stop interviewing him. Then there was Peach. He dismissed the thought automatically. He never really knew her but she didn't look the nosy type. Then again… Nah, Peach couldn't have. Zelda… She obviously seemed very upset… no, angry and could have possibly have walked in. But she had left before he had. Besides, she wasn't nosy either. But Sheik was. Sheik could've transformed and went into his room.
The only real suspect he actually had was Ness. Why was he making such a big deal out of this anyway? He kicked a pen on the floor semiconsciously and watched it roll across and hit something on the floor. Roy sighed, leaned forward and put his head into his hands. Why? Why was he the one with the burden? It wasn't as if he was trying to be difficult. The burden that weighed him down lately had put him through a lot of pressure. And his pressure usually led to anger and frustration and a hot temper.
Peaches POV:
I sighed. I had just missed my chance of being the good person I had wanted to be. I wanted to show Roy that… well some people around here do care about him. I wanted to somehow change his life, and not to mention, him. Was that too hard for a blonde princess like me? I chuckled to myself. Blondes. Even though I was a blonde I actually looked forward to them. I mean, I wasn't as stupid as blondes in the joke. Sometimes I acted like it. Being all hyper active and stuff, but who cares.
My thoughts drifted back to Roy. The one mystery I had tried to solve the whole time I was in the Smash Mansion was him. He was so complicated. He had so many secrets locked inside them. I could almost bet he couldn't unravel some parts as well.
I got up from the couch and planted my feet on to the floor firmly. Maybe nobody in the mansion cared about him, but I did. I was determined to find out what was up with him. I was determined I could change him. Half my mind didn't know how much trouble I was in just by making this promise, but when a blonde's mind is made up, there's no changing it.
"Hey Peach!" A familiar voice behind me greeted. Ah… Just the person whom I wanted to see.
"Hey Link, what's up?"
"The sky- I mean ceiling." He grinned goofily at me. I smiled and rolled my eyes although, he knew I didn't mean it.
"Link I have to tell you something." Link was my best friend, along with Marth, Falco, Zelda, and Samus, and Fox. It was a kind of big gang but we got along well.
"Yeah, me too." His expression changed from joking to serious.
"Can we go somewhere else? It's kinda…" I didn't need to finish because Link read my expression.
We were in Link's room. I glanced at his walls which were painted lush green with elvish words in special silver paint across the walls. It was neat and tidy. I sat on the desk chair and he sat on the bed.
"This is about Roy…" He began in a low serious tone.
"I have something to confess too." I admitted.
"Roy… is well… up to something," Link continued holding up his hand so he could speak with no interruptions. "He started to talk about how Nana and Ness ruined his day. I couldn't hear all of it, but I think… I think he started crying. Then he just ran out of his room. I know it wasn't right but I went in. I knew it would be messy and I opened a crumpled paper. It was a drawing, and it showed someone being hanged. I don't know who it was. All I know is that it could've been Marth, or me, because it looked like a swordsman."
My mouth had been open from when he told me about the crying part to when he finished. I snapped it back up while my brain processed the information.
"So what did you want to tell me?" He asked.
I really didn't want to tell him now. I couldn't tell my plans about Roy.
"Nothing really important." I replied quietly.
He punched me on the shoulder playfully, "C'mon! I know there's something on you mind! Tell me!" He exclaimed being mock serious.
"Fine. But you gotta promise you won't laugh. I really mean it Link. AND that no one hears about this, even our gang." I said convinced.
"Fine, fine I won't." he rolled his eyes and smiled.
"Well… I think Roy's in a lot of pressure. I don't think it's us but… maybe it's from where he came from or something. I mean… No one can be as cold and mean as Roy. Something tells me that he never used to be like this. Something just… happened to him that made him act this way."
Link was listening to me with rapt attention.
"Wow, you ever consider being a medium?"
"Link I'm serious!" I said stamping her foot impatiently. I would've laughed before but now I was too serious. "If Roy continues to be this way then… he could do something bad to himself, or maybe even us. That's why I want to…" I hesitated then began again firmly, "I want to help him."
It was Link's turn for his mouth to drop open.
"Help him! Peach are you crazy! Help him! You have no clue what you're getting yourself into! Roy is a dangerous teen whose temper is really bad. You're attempting the impossible!" He yelled in my ear.
I slowly backed away from him and crossed my arms. "Link, I thought you would understand. I feel as if his life in mortal danger. There's something in his head. And that paper that you told me about has convinced me even more. I thought you would help me." I said reaching for the door handle. I paused and added softly, "I guess not," Before twisting the handle. But before I could open it I felt a hand on my arm.
"I would never do that. I want to help you, but I was just warning you that it would be impossible." He added as a joke, "Without me." With that he let go of my arm and flipped his hair back proudly.
"Thanks Link." I rolled my eyes at him and left the room with more thoughts in my head.
General POV
Pichu, Jigglypuff, Ness, Kirby, Pikachu, Young Link, and the Ice Climbers were sitting in Pichu and Pikachu's room.
"So, this official meeting of the KASAE (Kids Association of Spies Against Evil) has come to order. Our current topic is Roy. Ness what is our status?" Young Link, commander of the KASAE demanded.
"Er… Well… Actually erm… still working on… thing…" He mumbled incoherently.
"What!" Pikachu thundered (A/N intended to be a pun, although it's kind of lame) "We've had this operation for months. We never have gotten anywhere!"
"Okay what about you Ice Climbers?" Growled a now moody Young Link.
"Roy's status is now angry. And angrier if I might add." Piped up Nana from behind Popo's shoulder. "I did the test on him. Test results positive. He needs anger management classes."
"All right then, the meetings officially started now." Kirby squeaked, reaching for a chocolate chip cookie.
"Hey! You're on a diet, remember?" Jigglypuff tattled reaching for the cookie.
"So are you!" Retorted Kirby knocking her (A/N I am assuming that Kirby's a boy, Jigglypuff's a girl, Pichu's a girl and Pikachu's a boy. Oh, and Mewtwo's a boy and so is Yoshi) hand out of the way and almost grabbing it.
"NO! I quitted it!" She said knocking him out of balance.
"Are not!"
"Are too!"
"SHUT UP!" Squeaked the normally quiet Pichu whose ears covered her eyes. "You guys have been driving me nuts from day one! Quit hollerin' at people's throats!"
"Er HEM." Ness interrupted stepping in front of the three before it became a threesome battle. "I believe that we have some business to take care of."
Young Link shuffled a few notes and cleared his throat. "Er Hem. Our assignment this day is too spy on Roy and see what we get. Pichu and Kirby will spy on Roy, wherever he goes. Ice Climbers will look through his room to see if they can find anything interesting. Take anything that you can carry – no wait take this movie camera and record everything you see. It's the smallest camera I can get." He said sliding the small 4 inch camera across the table to Popo.
Popo took it as if it were very dangerous yet fragile to him. "Wow! That small! It's a movie camera?
"Yep." Young Link grinned at him. "But don't you dare break it! This stuff cost mucho bread, not to mention it took me forever to find something as small as this. It's the real spy stuff type."
Popo studied it while Nana peered at it over his shoulder.
"Then, Pikachu and Jigglypuff have to position himself outside Roy's room, so they can keep a lookout, stall, and warn Kirby, Popo, and Nana." Young Link said, shuffling his map of the hall.
"What about you and me?" Ness asked, fearful that he might get kicked out of the team.
"You and I will be in here recording any information you guys send us through these clip on walkie-talkies. All you got to do is press these buttons with the numbers on them to communicate with us. One is for me, two for Ness, Three for Nana, and four for Popo, five is for Kirby and six is for Jigglypuff, seven is for Pikachu and eight is for Pichu. Got that? Let's move!"
With that the all but two members of the KASAE filed out of the room.
Nana's POV
I couldn't believe I had just been given a dangerous assignment like this. I followed my big brother through the corridors.
"Ready Nana?" He murmured clipping his walkie-talkie to his belt.
"Yeah," came my excited reply. This was the most important job a nine-year-old girl had ever gotten.
I pushed my pink hood back revealing my nut brown hair. Popo suddenly stopped in front of a door and knocked softly. There was no reply. He tried the door handle. It was locked. Disappointed he banged his gloved fist against it,
"We can't go in! It's locked!" He exclaimed.
"Leave it all to me…" I said and took a bobby pin from my hair. I always wore a bobby pin in cases like this.
I stuck it in the keyhole and twisted it.
Click! Perfect. I twisted the knob and opened it. I turned to face Popo. His face was as pink with excitement as mine. I pushed the door open and stared at what lay inside…
End Chapter 1!
It was pretty long I have to admit, and nothing is going on I admit, but soon something will, I promise, probably next chapter! Seeya people
