Super Smash Bros Brawl Story
Peach twirled her parasol impatiently. Now, it wasn't like her to be impatient, but the shuttle was late. And Peach hated to be late. She peered out from underneath her pink umbrella at the tracks, where nothing was happening. Even the Station Masters and trolley boys were lolling along to destinations slowly, as if the stifling heat had put everyone under a drug. She sighed, and then wandered over to where the rest of the to-be Smashers were sitting on luggage, tails, or each other in the case of Zelda and Link. She looked up. Kirby was floating along dully, trying to reach the highest ledge of the station. Peach put her parasol away and settled down on the bench, where Samus (without her suit, it was just too darn hot) was sitting with her head between her knees.
Samus looked up at Peach, who was sitting with a ram-rod straight spine and resting her hands delicately in her lap. Samus stretched until she heard a slight pop from her back. She looked at the Mushroom Kingdom Princess again. "Peach, I do not get you." The princess inclined her head to Samus and made a soft hmm? "It is 90-something degrees and you are wearing arm-length gloves with all your hair down, and a thick dress with underskirts! How do you do it?" Everyone looked, because they, too, wanted to know the answer. Peach dimpled slightly and said, "How do you wear that tight suit all day, every day?" Samus started slightly, and then grinned. "Touché." They continued to talk, finding out more about each other.
Mario grinned at his fiancé. He had been in love with her ever since they had grown up together as babies, along with his brother Luigi. Well, maybe not that long ago. When they were teens, definitely. That was also when Luigi had meet Princess Daisy. She was a perfect match for him, her tomboy-eness matching his… not-ness… They loved each other, but she had not been invited to the new Brawl season because of difficulties with her father's health. Peach was Daisy's best friend, but it looked like Peach was going to get along fine with the bounty hunter Samus. Mario settled back onto his luggage, only to be jerked forward by a yelp and a growl. Mario looked back to see Fox rubbing his tail and frowning. "Whoops. Sorry there!" Fox mumbled forgiveness.
Peach and Samus talking, Zelda and Link snuggling, and Kirby and Meta Knight seeing who could float the closest to the ceiling. It was the perfect picture of boredom and new friendships.
Pikachu was getting drowsy. It looked around for somewhere comfy to nap. It finally decided on Wolf's tail, where it curled up immediately and fell right to sleep. Wolf grumbled as he tried to slide his tail out from underneath the mouse Pokémon's body, but to no avail. He finally just left it there and sighed, putting his head in his paws.
Snake looked at his watch. "Wasn't the shuttle supposed to arrive forty-five minutes ago?" Ganondrof stopped his pacing and looked at the spy and rolled his eyes. And what was with Zelda and Link lately? Honestly, at least Peach and Mario weren't as… public with their infatuation with each other. Ganondrof leaned on a tall stone pillar and sighed. This was taking to long. If only Zelda hadn't taken his magic away when she banished him, he could speed it up. He looked over at her. No, she looked to busy to grant anyone magic right now.
Lucas and Ness were busy playing a version of tag and hide-and-seek. Their yells were the only noise on the empty platform. Nana and Popo looked on, curious, until Ness thumped Popo lightly on the head and said, "TAG! You're IT!" Popo looked at Ness, who looked at Lucas, who looked at Nana, who blushed. Then, as if by an unspoken signal, they all ran as fast as they could away from Popo, who ran after Lucas. The shouts and yelps of surprise made Peach giggle, and everyone else watch the game. Kirby then decided to float in, and soon, Toon Link and Pit put down their swords and ran to join the game. The air was ringing with shouts of "No FAIR! No flying 'lowed!" and "Hey! I wasn't ready!"
Peach watched with a bemused expression on her face. She loved watching children play, by themselves and with others. She wished she had a camera. Suddenly, out of nowhere, Nana shrieked and tripped on Wolf's tail, which was on the ground. Wolf whipped his tail up, waking up Pikachu, who gave a small shock to Wolf (on accident). Wolf yelped, and Falco started to laugh, until Wolf punched him on the wing (dead wing?). Falco fell off the bench onto Yoshi's tail. Yoshi was sleeping underneath the bench and so when he got up, the bench flipped over, knocking Wolf and Fox onto the ground. Fox landed on one of Red's Poké Balls, which opened and revealed Charizard. Who immediately proceeded to fly up with Fox unwillingly taking a ride. Red stood up and tried to call Charizard back, but it didn't work. So Zelda stood up to get the Pokémon back, but in doing so, Link lost his balance and fell, looking stunned.
Samus and Peach looked at each other with the same frozen expression of amusement on their faces, until Samus broke it with loud peals of laughter, and Peach joined in with her small giggles. Soon Captain Falcon began to guffaw. Nana, who had hidden behind Peach's skirt because she was terrified of Wolf, started laughing shyly. They were all still laughing when Zelda helped an angry Fox down from the back of Charizard, and Red sheepishly called the Pokémon back. Soon everyone was laughing. A lot, and they couldn't stop until Kirby and Meta Knight, who had apparently been shouting "TRAIN!" for the last five minutes, came down and shouted it together. Everyone froze, until Marth said "Finally!" From there, it was again ensuing chaos as the Smashers scrambled to gather luggage, parasols, and packs before all of the good spots were taken next to the windows.
Wolf felt a tug on his tail as he was waiting in line. He looked down, and saw Nana looking sheepishly up at him. He raised his eyebrows. She was just so small, he couldn't even imagine her and her brother fighting against people like him and Bowser… He shook his head, then said, "Yeah?" Nana blushed, said, "Sawwy, mester, 'bout you're tail," then looked down. Wolf still scared her. Wolf laughed, then kneeled down and said softly, so as not to frighten her, "Don't worry about it. It loosened everyone up and gave us all some good laughs!" She grinned. Then took his giant paw in her small hand. He was surprised, but didn't pull away. In fact he swung her up onto his shoulders, making her laugh with delight. Peach was helping the smaller Smashers get seats on the train when she saw Wolf swing Nana up. She smiled. This might be a very fun year at the Smash Mansion.
