I haven't written in forever so sorry if I seem a little rusty ;) also for people reading who've read some of my other stuff, my chapters are quite a bit longer than they used to be (like four times longer… :/) Alright, this is an OC story. There are four OC's so far, Ashlynn, Eva, Ben, and Archer. I want to thank Shadows-Girl95, Sweet and Tart, and one of my other friends for allowing me to use OC's they've created. (Ashlynn is the only one that's actually my creation) so yeah, thanks to them and pathofradiancefan100 for helping me refine and write this idea :D Also please read and review :)
Ashlynn POV
I looked over at Ben; she was cussing at the game, slamming the controller to the ground. Archer stood by smugly; obviously he'd beat her at Brawl, again. "HOW THE HELL COULD I NOT WIN! THIS THING IS SO RIGGED!" Ben hollered as she stormed over to where I as leaning against the wall. A Wal-Mart employee stared at us. But the four of us were a common sight, we can here to play Brawl because all of us were too cheap to go out and buy the game.
"Ben, I think that you're putting too much thought into this and you ought to calm down." Eva remarked gently as she took a sip of her coffee.
"TOO MUCH THOUGHT!" Ben hollered as she slumped against the wall.
"Benjerman!" A Wal-Mart employee huffed as she chewed on her gum loudly; she knew Ben in particular since Ben had a long history of hanging out in the store, she'd been kicked out multiple times. "Don't make me kick you four out again." She warned as she clicked her long painted red fingernails against a table, her other hand on her hip.
"Sorry, Marge." Eva apologized to the forty year old employee whose platinum blond hair was starting to grow out. I think her natural color was dark brown or something…
"Yup, too much thought." I replied as I looked at Ben "Hey, Archer, do you mind if the three of us take you on in a 3 vs. 1 battle so we can beat you to a pulp to make Ben feel better?" I asked as I walked over to where Archer was. Archer was sitting crossed legged on the floor, he looked kind of funny sitting in the middle of Wal-Mart in his teal shirt, glasses, and dark jeans.
Archer handed us all controllers as we sat down on the floor next to him, "Alright, bring it on." He remarked, a random woman and her son stared at us.
"Don't stare Jimmy." The woman scolded as she grabbed the little blond boy's hand and dragged him off. I stifled a laugh. Marge followed the parent and child pair, obviously claiming that we were mentally unstable and that we were here from the asylum and this was therapy to make us better people.
"EMO!" some random passerby dude yelled at Ben.
"Dumbass! It's not emo it's called scene." Ben retorted as she tugged on a strand of her hair. Her hair was brown with pink bangs and then in the front it had pink and blue horizontal strips. Her lower lip was pierced and she was wearing a long pink shirt with a picture of a cupcake on it. Eva looked at Ben as she flipped her golden blond hair over her shoulder; she then proceeded to smooth out her cream shirt, which had a big pink bow on it, and jean skirt as she sat down. I shrugged as I looked at the screen. I didn't really have a style, I had short brown hair, deep violet eyes, and I just wore whatever I wanted. Today it was a short sleeved turquoise shirt, a wavy gray tank top vest, light jean Capris, and dark turquoise flats.
"What even is 'scene'?" Eva remarked with a sigh.
"Seriously? Don't make yourself seem any worse, Eva." Ben remarked
"Can you please quit talking about clothes?" Archer sighed as he slumped back and ran a hand through his dark brown hair.
"Alright, whatever you want, your majesty. But it's not clothes it's style." Ben mocked, we were still on the character selection screen when some seriously weird crap started happening. The screen began to flicker all weird like. We all stood up to look at it. Ben banged a fist against it, "this is a piece of shit." She muttered.
"Hey, Ashlynn, come here." Eva remarked, I walked over to her she was pointing to a wire.
"I guess it must've come out." I remarked as I plugged the cord in, suddenly I felt chills run up my spin. I stared at everyone else.
"Did you guys feel that?" Eva whispered, suddenly the screen glowed white; we all looked at each other as we stared at it.
"Go first, Archer, you're the guy." I remarked as I slightly shoved him forward.
"Good god, Ash, quit being a baby." Archer remarked as he walked next to the TV, Ben was behind him, I was behind Ben, and Eva was behind me. We all walked up to it in a single file line. Suddenly I felt Eva crash into my back, I smacked into Ben and I felt her bang into Archer and then suddenly we were falling, like midair.
"WHAT'S HAPPENING?" Eva cried as we all crashed through the sky. Suddenly we all smacked into the ground, I groaned as I sat up.
"What the hell…" I heard Ben mutter.
"Are you guys alright?" I remarked, I put a hand on my forehead, that's when I noticed my hands. I wasn't wearing what I had been before.
"I'm fine." I heard Eva remark.
"I'm not." Archer grumbled. I stood up and looked at them; we all started screaming, aside from Archer since he was too 'cool' to scream.
"Alright, I'm Eva if that helps." Eva remarketed; she had long blond hair in ringlets pulled up in pigtails. She was wearing a short ornate red-orange dress, it was lined with pink lace and the sleeves were off the shoulder, she was in a pink choker with a black heart on it. She had a pink piece of fabric, lined with magenta, tied around her waist, it came down in a loose circle on her right side, on her left side a loose piece of fabric that had a heart with an arrow in it and a bunch of swirled red-orange lines came down, it rested just above her knees. Her shoes were pink with straps on her ankles that had a tiny black heart on them.
"I'm Ben." Ben replied, she had short blond hair loosely pulled up in pigtails. She was in a gray long sleeved dress, her left sleeve was white, and she was wearing black shorts underneath it. She was in a white sock on her right leg and a black sock on her left leg; she was also in one black and on white shoe. She also had on a black choker necklace. Her right eye was pure black and it was like her skin was a strange white color in a semi circle around her eye.
"And since I'm the only guy here, I think it's safe to say that I'm Archer." Archer remarked, his hair was still dark brown only it was a bit lighter and it had a few lighter blond pieces throughout. He had a pair of wings; I think he might've been a hawk Laguz. He was wearing a long sleeve jacket, it was long as it came down, it then split into two separate segments, it was a deep red, over it he was in a dark leather like vest. It had a very high collar that was lifted up. There was also a horizontal strap of black leather around his waist, it then came up in two vertical lines, leading to shoulder pads, and another horizontal strap connected the vertical lines. He was in black leather fingerless gloves and in black boots.
"I'm Ashlynn." I replied I looked down at myself. I was in a crop top short sleeved coat that had a hood, a purple choker; there was a strange blue-violet shape above my chest on the right side of my jacket that resembled an upside-down triforce. I also had on a violet shirt trimmed with black, dark pinky purple shorts, and fingerless gloves that were the same color as the shorts, black socks, brown boots, and I had purple fabric tied around my right leg and my left shoe. I tugged on a strand of my hair, it was shorter and purple. I fingered one of my ears, they were longer and pointed. I was an elf… go figure.
Suddenly we heard loud footsteps, a big ugly creature stepped forward. I suddenly took in that ironically enough we were in a meadow outlined by lush green trees. a random fluffy bunny bounded by. "I've found you Princesses!" The creature cackled.
"Is that Bowser?" Eva remarked softly, Ben nodded I just stared.
"Um, by 'Princesses' I hope you're just referring to those three." Archer remarked.
"You can't hide from the mighty Bowser! I know you're the four princesses!" Bowser growled as he held a weird gun thing at us.
"Don't shot?" Eva offered up as she slightly held her hands up. Suddenly a little car came down by us, it had a picture of a clown on it and a propeller on the bottom.
"What the hell." Archer muttered, we were all obviously losing the ability to take Bowser seriously.
"Get in the Koopa Clown Car." Bowser ordered, pointing at the car.
"Dude, we can't all fit in there." Archer remarked.
"It's like a foot wide." Ben added as she crossed her arms.
"GET IN THE DAMN KOOPA CLOWN CAR!" Bowser roared.
"There are five of us. And, buddy, you're pretty big." I pointed out.
"NOW!" Bowser hollered.
"Alright, calm down we're going." Ben replied as we all climbed in.
"Ben, you're elbowing me!" Eva whined.
"Well Archer is stepping on my foot!" Ben snapped back.
"Archer you stink!" I remarked as I glared at him as Bowser stepped into the car also.
"OH GOD! I can't breathe!" Ben hollered as we were all crushed in the car.
"ONWARD TO THE SECRET BASE!" Bowser called out as he pointed a chubby finger out, instead that just made the weight uneven, the car began tipping forward.
"AHHHHHH!" Eva cried as we were all flung forward, luckily at the last minute the car started hovering forward, it was about to tip over and we were all being crushed but it was still managing to move.
"VICTORY!" Bowser hollered as he flung up his chubby arms.
"That's what you'd call this?" Archer scoffed. Suddenly the car flew up into the air; it was making weird sputtering noises as it teetered forward.
"Shut up, birdie. Also, don't fly away or I'll shot you." Bowser grumbled as he held up his gun thing again. Archer slumped back a bit, obviously peeved.
"I can't see any way that this could go wrong." I muttered bitterly as I clutched the edge of the car.
"I can." Eva replied quietly, her face pale as she also clutched the rounded edge of the car.
"Don't jinx it! If we think that something bad will happen then-" Ben remarked, she was cut off midsentence by the car spiraling out of control.
"AHHHHH!" We all cried in unison. We were all flung out of the car, aside from Bowser that is. I saw a huge mansion in the distance and people practicing sword fighting I assume. A gust of wind shot me spiraling, but it also softened my fall as I smacked into the ground. Well, maybe it wasn't the ground exactly. I heard someone let out a gasp as I crashed into them, obviously knocking them down as well. I looked up meekly and saw the person glaring at me, although they were gritting their teeth as if in pain. I could tell that it was a guy; he had long dark hair, deep crimson eyes, and a strange mark on his forehead.
"Hi." I muttered as I looked up at him.
"Wh-what!" He sputtered as he looked at me with a horrified expression, I sort of grinned.
"Sorry for, er, dropping in." I mumbled sheepishly smiling at my lame attempt at a joke/icebreaker.
"Get off of me." He snapped coldly as he pushed me off, he stood up slowly and dusted himself off.
I stood up slowly; I felt sore all over, "I'm Ashlynn." I remarked as I extended a hand, he started at me, astonished.
"I didn't ask for your name." He replied as he crossed his arms. I uncrossed them and took his hand in mine as I shook it.
"Alright. But I'm asking for yours so…"
"It's Soren." He replied as he yanked his hand away, I saw him reaching to pick a book up; I picked it up first however.
"Oooh, what's this!" I exclaimed like a giddy little kid as he just stared.
"It's a spell book." He replied as he pulled it from my hands.
"Can I see it?" I muttered as I placed a hand on the book.
"No."
"Why not?"
"Because." He replied with an impatient sigh, he clutched his book under one arm as he turned to leave, I grabbed his wrist.
"Wait, Soren, I sort of don't know where I am… I was with three other people and we sort of… got separated while we were falling." I said slowly, he tried to tug his wrist away but I had a strong grip.
"Your close to the Brawl Mansion, we're all here for the Brawl tournament. Well, some of us, there's three of us here for no apparent reason however." Soren explained, wow he was good at getting to the point.
"O-oh. Can I tag along with you for a while?" I asked slowly as I looked at him nervously.
He looked like he wanted to say no, but he let out an impatient sigh as he said, "Fine. Just let go of me."
"Really?" I remarked as I let go of his wrist, he shrugged as he started walking, "so, where are we going?" I giggled as I followed after him.
"Back to the Brawl Mansion." He replied bluntly, I grabbed his arm; he stopped dead and stared at me.
"Stop walking so fast." I remarked, he tried to shake me off but it almost seemed like a half-hearted effort.
"I want to get back. Let go of me." He replied as he narrowed his eyes at me.
"I'm not stopping you from power walking like you were, but I'm going to hold onto your arm." I said with a grin, he rolled his eyes and frowned as he started walking faster; I managed to keep up with his pace, still holding onto his arm.
Evaleen POV
I sat up slowly, I was lucky that I hadn't been killed, Ben was sitting nearby, we were on a hill I looked down and saw a huge mansion. I stood up slowly as I walked over to Ben. "Where do you think we are?" I whispered. She didn't have time to answer when three super hot guys ran up the hill. We both stared and tried not to drool.
"They're…so… hot…" Ben murmured I nodded in agreement.
"Are you ladies alright?" A handsome man, who I identified as Marth, asked.
"We are now." Ben remarked, Marth just stared at her.
"What happened to you girls?" The blond elf, obviously Link, asked with a small smile.
"Bowser attacked us; he called us 'princesses'. It was pretty messed up." Ben explained, I nodded as I crossed my arms, I wished that I could be as effortlessly social as she was.
"So, you guys are the missing princesses we heard about then." Ike remarked, I could tell who he was easily.
"Um, how did you hear about us?" Ben remarked as she twirled a strand of her hair around her finger. I was jealous of how flirty she could act.
"It was strange actually, Link found a note saying that four princesses had be kidnapped and that we needed to save them." Marth murmured as he sexily ran a hand through his hair.
"Actually it was really weird." Link added with a cheerful smile.
"Do you think someone was trying to set you guys up in some way?" Ben remarked as she put a hand on her hip. Obviously she was awesome with figuring out video game plots and sense we were basically in a video game…
"That's what we thought. But then we saw you girls falling, you two were the closest so we figured we'd come see if you were alright." Ike explained.
"Thank you for finding us." I murmured quietly as I stared at Marth, he slightly smiled back.
"Do you guys know where we are?" Ben asked.
"Your close to the Brawl mansion, we're all here for a tournament." Link explained with a carefree tone.
"Oh… can we come with you? That is as long as it's alright with you; I don't wish to be a burden or anything." I asked with a shy smile.
"It's fine." Ike replied.
"It'd be a pleasure to be able to escort you back." Marth said with a slight smile, I smiled back nervously.
The guys walked slightly forward; Ben leaned over and hissed, "He's mine." I didn't know if she was serious or not, but I knew that any 'love war' between us would end in failure for me. I'm just not outgoing enough.
Archer POV
I hadn't known that I'd actually be able to fly; I felt the powerful pounding of my wings slow as I landed with a soft thud. Four girls were all looking at me. I was standing on a large courtyard, a huge mansion right in front of me. I thought I saw Peach and Zelda, the other two were unknown to me, I wish I had Ben or Ashlynn here to explain whoever they were to me. The four girls walked over.
"Wow! I never thought that I'd see a real Laguz!" Peach gushed as she looked at the other girls, Zelda nodded slowly.
"Yes…" Zelda murmured softly.
"Um, I've never seen you before. Who are you?" the girl with deep blue hair asked, she was also wearing orange.
"My name's Archer." I explained as I stared at them, "And what're all of your names?"
"I'm Mia." The girl with blue hair announced with a grin.
"I'm Elincia." A pretty girl with long green hair remarked, I couldn't help but smile at her.
"I'm Princess Peach!" Peach giggled.
"My name is Zelda." Zelda murmured as she looked at me oddly.
"Can you guys tell me where I am?" I asked slowly, Mia nodded eagerly.
"You're at the Brawl Mansion! Are you here for the tournament?" Mia asked as she grinned.
"Um, I kind of just ended up here actually…" I replied as I scratched my head.
"HEY! I think the guys are back!" Peach exclaimed as she pointed towards the distance, guys I recognized as Marth, Link, and Ike walked towards us. Ben and Eva right behind them. We started walking towards them Elincia sort of tripped, I caught her as she kind of fell against me.
"O-oh." She remarked as she pulled away slowly I looked at her for a minute.
"Sorry about that." I replied with a smile she just nodded.
"No, it's my fault, thank you for catching me." She whispered hastily as Ike walked over. But the damage was done, Ike glared at me, it was like he was trying to kill me with his mind.
"Hey there, Archie, already trying to hit on someone." Ben whispered next to me, I shot her a glare as she smirked and crossed her arms.
"It's not anything, she tripped. I was being a gentleman." I shot back.
"Yes, I'm sure Ike thinks you're quite the gentleman. You do know that he loves Elincia right?" Ben remarked with an even bigger smirk.
"Damn it." I muttered.
"What is Ashlynn doing?" Eva murmured as she furrowed her eyebrows, coming towards us was a very pissed off looking mage and Ashlynn. Who was holding on to his arm. They reached us and Ashlynn finally released his arm, he looked grateful yet very annoyed.
"So, what happened to you, Soren?" Link chuckled as he looked at the ground.
"I found her, obviously." Soren grumbled as he pointed at Ashlynn.
"Actually 'found' isn't the right word. I fell on him." Ashlynn remarked with a giggle as she put her hands on her hips. Ike, although still pissed, burst out laughing alongside Link. I think that the mage, Soren was it, slightly blushed.
"So are these the four princesses then?" Marth remarked, I hate guys like him. Damn it. How am I going to deal with some of these people?
"Dude, I'm a guy." I snarled, it was at this moment that Soren looked at me, he looked like he wanted to rip my throat out.
Ashlynn POV
I knew what was happening right away. DAMN! DAMN! DAMN! I looked at Soren quickly, he knew. I saw the way he glared at Archer as he snarled, "Who found the filthy half breed?"
"What's your problem?" Archer remarked breezily, DAMN IT! He didn't get how delicate this situation was.
"Really? What's my problem you-" Soren was cut off mid insult however by Archer's loud grunt.
"I'm a human." Archer remarked obviously getting the problem about his wings now. DAMN! WHY'D HE HAVE TO SAY HUMAN! Soren looked smugly around as Ike, Elincia, and Mia murmured to themselves.
"He meant, er, he meant Beroc, um, maybe…" I softly explained as I slumped down. Soren glanced at me with a glare. I felt someone put a hand on my shoulder, Link looked at me.
"You're a Hylain right? I know that their weird stuff doesn't make much sense but you get used to it." Link explained with a smile. I smiled at him a bit as he removed his hand, I looked at Soren. He was obviously still fuming but he seemed a bit better.
"Hmmm, I never really noticed that you're a Hylain, I don't know how I could've missed your pointed ears. It makes sense why you're so ignorant to what the filthy beast said." Soren remarked, obviously deciding that I wasn't an evil monster. I smiled a bit in relief. Soren glared at Archer just as Ben smacked Archer's arm, Archer winced a bit, but he her timely intervention probably saved us all from one ugly fight.
Ike walked over as he said, "he's not worth it, Soren." I was grateful to Ike, although Ike looked at Archer with severe dislike. Who didn't Archer manage to antagonize?
"Can everyone please just stop fighting for a minute?" Eva announced softly as she stepped forward, that was oddly confident for her, "Archer, Ashlynn, Ben, and I really need your help. We're not sure how we got here and we don't know what to do. Please help us."
"Of course, we'll see if all of you can stay here." Marth replied as he looked at her, I think Marth may like Eva. Like, little sweet and kind Eva. My god, miracles do happen.
"It won't be a problem." Zelda replied with a gentle smile. YES! Eva was making us friends! YAY!
"I have a problem with that stupid half breed." Soren grumbled.
"I do too. I think he's total trash and should probably be killed." I lamely added, trying to get on Soren's good side. Link gave me a weird look as he backed away slowly. Soren looked at me, I don't know with what emotion exactly but it wasn't love or hate.
"Good god, Ashlynn." Ben remarked as she placed a hand on her forehead, obviously showing me that my weird little craze should probably stop.
"What?" I remarked as I flung my right hand up, the weirdest thing happened it's like some strange purpley/blacky magic came from my fingertips it shot backwards, I spun around, I guess Sonic the hedgehog must have been running by or something because I just saw the magic bang into him as he smacked into a tree.
"YOU KILLED SONIC!" Ben hollered as she ran over to where he hit the tree, everyone stared. I forgot to tell them that Ben is a crazed Sonic fangirl, not quite like Amy Rose but… yeah… pretty close.
"Actually, she didn't. Look at him." Soren replied, Sonic suddenly transformed. He was a super hot human guy.
"Damn." Ben muttered as she looked at him.
"What just happened…?" Sonic muttered as he placed a hand on his forehead, he was wearing a red jacket, baggy blue pants, red shoes, and he had spiky blue hair. Ben rushed to his side.
"My friend's a total idiot, sorry!" Ben remarked as she helped him up, Sonic looked at one of his hands and looked like he was about to die.
"I'm a human…?" He muttered, Ben nodded, "Um… Cool." Sonic decided as he grinned.
"I'm Ben." Ben remarked, trying not to pass out and die, I'm sure.
"I'm Sonic the hedge-er, human, I guess. That just doesn't have the same ring to it…" Sonic said with a sigh.
"Come on, we need to find the four of you places to stay. Zelda remarked softly.
Aright thanks to anyone who reviews! Chapter 2 will be up very soon and I intend to post a chapter every three or four days or it could be every day. We'll just see how it works out ;D
