Chapter One of "The Moon Princess Rises Remake"

Jesus, I just recently saw the Smash trailer and holy shit! Nintendo actually listened to us! They got every Smash character from the series to join! Now the dream tournament with every Smash character existing in my fanfic is canon!

If you guys recall, one of my fanfics, "The Moon Princess Rises" is based on the Smash series itself and applying ponyphonic's "The Moon Rises" to it. So… yeah, long story short, I'm redoing it, but I'm keeping the original story as well. Let's get into it now!

(Line Break)

Chapter 1: How I Handle Bullying

Former Title: Weakness to Bullying

(Background Music: Fire Emblem Awakening: Anna's Shop)

Lucina stomps to her room after a brutal match against Bowser and Ganondorf, clearly pissed off. She had just came from another match against Bowser and Ganondorf, and it was brutal for her.

Lucina: Even though it was a Free-For-All battle, they decided to beat me up for the sake that Ganon hates me and forced Bowser to cooperate. I was three stocks ahead of them, yet I was the first to get out of the match! Well, at least Bowser apologized afterwards. Stupid pig king calling me a… *growls* Grrrrr- *steps on gum* What the-

Apparently, to top it off on a sour note, she stepped on gum.

Lucina: Aw, come on people! I just got back from a match!

Sighing as she realized that it was going to be one of those days that end in why, she was about to go to her room when one of the main teasers of the smashers, the male version of Corrin, along with his female counterpart, caught her eye. Now, mind you, he only teases Lucina just to be friendly with her. The female Corrin, however, was strict, but friendly with her too. She's also the one who keeps her male counterpart in check whenever she was around.

Unknown Voice 1: Hey! Lucina! Lucy!

Unknown Voice 2: Over here!

She turned to see both Corrins waving at her.

Lucina: *Turns to see both Corrins waving at her and runs up to them* Hey guys. How have you been doing these first three weeks here?

Ever since they joined the roster, she's been kind to them both, since they were both… foreign royals and didn't know that you don't touch people's faces as a greeting.

Corrin: *without giving much thought* Great, thanks. Even though we'd have to join with Bayonetta, she's not all that bad and we'd even sparred with her a few hours ago, actually.

Lucina: Huh. *Sniff* Well that explains the scent of sweat around you.

Core: We kind of miss our family a little, but we write to them whenever we can. I got Elise's reply a few days ago in my room if you want to read it.

Lucina: Maybe tomorrow; I gotta get back to my room now. How is Elise doing?

Corrin: She said that she misses you and hopes that she can visit Smash City soon. But enough about me. I want to hear about your day.

Lucina: (How was my day? Okay, how do I put this…) Well, this morning I smelt nasty garlic cloves in my room again-

All three: Stupid Wario… *rolls their eyes at that*

Lucina: So after cleaning up the mess he made for 30 minutes, I went down to the mess hall where the younger Smashers dumped a bunch of oatmeal…

Core: *raises her eyebrow* All of them?

Lucina: Okay, most of them, not all of them. Then this afternoon, all of the Koopalings besides Lemmy, Villager and his friends, Toon Link, and Duck Hunt thought it was funny to chase me down like it was Duck Dynasty because SOMEONE dumped sticky Cucco feathers on me, and I just got back from a Free-For-All match where I got ganged up on… *counts all of the aforementioned events on her fingers* I don't know. It seems like it was a crappy day for me.

Corrin: Oh… That's… uh, not great to… hear.

*awkward silence*

Lucina: Anything wrong?

Corrin: Uh, excuse me a sec, please. *Moves himself and Core to the side and starts whispering* Core, I think we may have a problem.

Core: What's wrong now, Corrin?

Corrin: Have you not just heard her now? It sounds like she's been getting bullied!

Core: *gasp* That's horrible! The poor thing… Wait, how do you know she's getting bullied?

Corrin: … *looks back at Lucina* No clue.

Core: Ugh, just like usual. Idiot.

Corrin: Well, any bright ideas on how we ask her?

Core: I don't know. Why do you figure it out yourself?

Corrin: I can't do that! You figure it out!

Core: What?! Why me?!

Corrin: Hey! You just called me an idiot! It's not my fault that I'm not Einsteinium here. Look, I may be dumb, but I'm smarter than some of the others here.

Core: One, it's Einstein, not Einsteinium; that's an element. Two, if you're so smart, why can't you come up with a simple plan?

Corrin: Good idea. Get someone who isn't good at plans come up with one to save the smart ass who can't save herself.

Lucina: What's going on there?

Core: *turns around quickly and sweat drops a bit* Nothing! Nothing, but… (Shit, now I have to ask her face to face! C'mon, think, dammit…) There's something that bothered me, and I'm gonna ask. Answer as honestly as you can. How do… How do you handle bullying? (Nice going, Core. Now she's gonna ask why just because you asked…)

Lucina: (Oh no, I can't let her know that I'm getting bullied. Think, how do I tell her without giving it away… *sigh* Maybe they can keep it a secret…) I don't know, Core. Promise not to tell anyone you two?

Core: Cross my heart and hope to fly.

Corrin: Stick a needle in my eye.

Lucina: Good. I've… been bullied by Ganondorf for as long as I can remember while in Smash City. He hates clones. Just about once a month at least.

Core and Corrin: *Look at each other and Lucina with worried faces* Uh oh…

Lucina: What?

Corrin: You were bullied for that long? And you didn't tell anyone about this until now…?

Lucina: No, I haven't because… I was uncomfortable telling anyone about it. How do I handle bullying? I… don't know how to; I just let it happen. Do you think I should change my personality to stop it?

Core: That's horrible! You poor girl…

Corrin: Core… *nudges her elbow* You owe me one.

Core: Shut up. Anyway, what I'm going to say may seem a bit… um… confusing. All of us have personalities that are diverse, so you're fine. Besides, could you imagine what would happen if it was the other way around with one personality to act upon?

All three: *thinks back to when Starlight was running a village like Adolf Hitler*

Lucina: Point taken.

Core: Oh nuts. We have a match to go to soon with both Robins… What time is it?

Corrin and Lucina: Almost 9:30.

Core: Are we late? Oh, crap! We're late! We gotta go. Corrin, let's move!

Lucina: Good luck in your team tag match against both Robins.

Corrin: Bye! Thanks, Blueberry!

Core: *slaps him across his face* Corrin! What's with you and the nickname giving?!

Corrin: Ow! What was that for, Core?! It was just a joke!

Lucina: Hee hee, you guys… Well, good night, then.

Core and Corrin: Good night, Lucina. *they leave and take the stairs*

Lucina: *goes into deep thought* Time sure flies by. It seems like only yesterday that I came to live here. Thank the gods that the Pantheon connects my world to Smash City. New friends, new enemies, and of course… her. If I hadn't come along the alleyway that night, who'd knew what would've happened to her…
