This is the sequel I promised. Part of this chapter is about life for Samus after Ike died. I highly recommend that you read Finn Joins the SM? first. This story will have a better ending. It still will have Finn and Bonnie as important characters. Disclaimer: I don't Adv. Time or SSB.
Previously: "Our new smashers are Finn, Will, and Alice; our new staff member is Bonnie." "I love you Samus." "If you get into a tight spot, use this, it will get you out." "You should be out by now...wait...Connors!" "Ike will be missed." One question still lingers, what about that small chance that Ike would be alive?
Samus' POV: Ike's death: most likely the worst experience I've had since coming to SM. It's really hard losing the one man who had touched your heart. It's been a month and I feel no better than I did a month ago. Life has just about become unbearable. I go back into one of my funk moods. Master Hand is giving me time to heal. Whenever I feel down, I read his paper again. And I go to his 'grave', which is just a tombstone with his name on it. I think about why Ike did what he did. I also think about what our future would have been like. "I know you are still grieving, but I can't let you be inactive in the brawls much longer. I can guarantee a couple more weeks, you might be able to get a month, but I can't go further than that. You need to be able to come to terms with Ike's death." Master Hand tells me. I try but it is difficult, losing the one person who could make you smile against your will. That one guy that makes your heart leap out of your chest. Now that Ike's gone, I keep seeing more of the likes of Captain Falcon and Snake, who is no longer a member of the Smash Mansion as of currently. Not only do I have to deal with my one true love's death, but also have to deal with two idiots who won't stop bothering me. I have been getting more suitors against my will. Some of "them" just want to try and help alleviate the pain, but others want me, as they fight over who gets me. Life is getting worse and worse. I don't know how much longer I can put a fake smile and pretend everything is fine. I don't know how much longer before I can't stand life. I can't move on. I'd rather die than look for another guy.
Will's POV: It's really hard to loose a comrade, a brother-in-arms. Connors has been sentenced to death, we decided that my blade would kill him, since Ike's blade is nowhere to be found. I get ready, and I slice his head off. And that is the end of Glenn Connors, the traitor. Bowser and Gannondorf, otherwise known as Browser and Gannondork, were killed in the explosion Ike created. All the evil ones are dead, Ashera's body was somehow mortal, and she died too. The Litch has been defeated. We are fairly certain that Ike is dead, but the one question still lingers. I'm helping to prepare simulations to visualize the possibility that Ike is still alive. Everyone who respected Ike is trying to help Samus. She isn't doing well.
Samus' POV: I keep getting suitors and I can't shake them off. Most of them are visitors. I miss Ike as it is, and these bone heads bring it to a whole new level. The day they understand that I will never go for any of them is the day I celebrate. In order to rid myself of these idiots, I must go to the Hospital Wing. They ask what's wrong and I tell them why I am there. They want me to talk to the Dr. Mario so I wait for him. He does a few tests and tells me I'll be on medical excuse for the brawls. He also suggests that I stay away from everyone except those whom I consider close to me. I give him a list of people and he will call them in and explain that they are the only ones except Master Hand and himself that were allowed to see me, at least until I am feeling better. I hope this will keep Falcon and Snake away, along with the other "real" suitors, not the ones who try and help. I wait for the doc to create a diversion so I can go to my room unnoticed. He somehow manages to get every smasher, visitor, and personnel out of the hall I will be using to get to my room. Master Hand escorts me to my room, and he hands me a picture of Ike and says when I get lonely to look at the picture and feel Ike's presence. I take the picture and I decide that I should eat something so I get out the pans, foods, and spices and I get cooking. Alice, Bonnie, Peach, Lucina, Robin (F), and Zelda come and check on me. They also were fighting the suitors for me. They were among the people I listed as "okay". I hear a little bit of noise and I ask what's going on. "Well, Master Hand decided to add a double security feature to the complex you will be staying in, it has a card reader and a camera identification. He also is adding a feature that you can decide if you want company or not. If you don't Dr. Mario will come and make sure you aren't feeling suicidal or very depressed and if you pass, then he will push a button that won't allow anyone except the master card holders: himself and Master Hand, from entering. It should be finished in a few hours, then we will move everything of yours in there." Zelda says. I am okay with it because I know it is for my benefit.
That's chapter 1: Samus' Misery in the story Tragedy at SM: Aftermath. Chapter 2 coming up.
