Soul Rider: This isn't my first Wreck-It Ralph fanfic just to let you know. And I promise that I will continue "Pureness Turned Black". In fact, Chapter 3 is almost done. So hang with me. I own no characters in this fanfic.
Heroes Gone Bad
Part 1: Invited
"Quittin' time!" Fix-It Felix, Jr. announced once the arcade was confirmed closed. The Nicelanders and Ralph relaxed as they went off to do their business. Ralph climbed down from the building. He sent a smirk to Felix.
"Looks like you got a little work to do," the wrecker told him, gesturing to the hole in the penthouse. The handyman just sighed as he hopped up to the wreckage. With a single tap of the hammer, the hole was gone.
"All done." With the hole gone, the little man back flipped off the building and landed on Ralph's shoulder with ease. They soon heard the sound of the trolley and saw Paperboy coming in.
"News here! News here!" he announced like he always did. "And special delivery for Fix-It Felix, Jr.!" Both bad guy and good guy cocked an eyebrow. Felix had gotten mail from other characters before, but not with the news. Paperboy came up to the two and handed the hero an envelope and newspaper.
"Thank you, sir," Felix said politely as he always does.
"Be seeing you later, Felix." Paperboy went back to the trolley.
"Later?"
"Maybe it has something to do with that letter," Ralph suggested.
"Maybe, brother." The fixer handed the wrecker the newspaper while he started opening the envelope.
"The 'Heroes Gone Bad Party'?" the bad guy read the first headline in confusion. Upon hearing this, the short guy looked at the news before he could read his letter. "'First annual day where good guys get the chance to act like bad guys. Only good guys are allowed in the festivities. The party was organized by, surprisingly, the Mario Bros. after a certain discovery found on a home console game.'"
"Wait, what?!" Felix snatched the parchment to get a closer look, dropping the letter in the process. Ralph luckily caught it before it hit the muddy ground. "Why would the Mario Bros. throw such a party?! Have they lost their minds?!" The giant man ignored his rant as he stared in puzzlement at the letter.
"Hey Felix, Mario and Luigi taught you how to write and speak Mushroom, right?" The good guy looked back at him.
"Yes. They said it'd be like a code when we want to say something private to each other. Why?"
"Then it must be important. If that's all that's written on it. Either that or they didn't want to write actual words." Ralph showed him the writing. All there was were a bunch of symbols and enemies from the Mario Bros. games. Fix-It took the letter and returned the newspaper. He immediately recognized the first two words as "Hey Felix". Felix's name, like most, isn't part of the symbol vocab so it's roughly translated. In Mushroom, his name is "Lucky Ice", two four leaf clovers and a snowflake in between. As he read the rest, his face became twisted with fear and shock. "What does it say?" Ralph asked out of anxiety.
"They can't be serious…" was all he muttered.
"What?"
"Are they NUTS?!" The repairman threw his arms up. His sudden movement almost made him fall off Ralph's shoulder.
"Woah! What's the matter? What did it say?"
"They want me to go to "Heroes Gone Bad"!" The brown eyed man gave him a look of surprise.
"They invited you to attend a party where the heroes act the opposite?" Just the thought of Felix trying to act evil was… pretty adorable sounding to him. He snorted in laughter and tried to hold in his chuckles. "Oh, I'm going to enjoy this."
"There is no way am I am going to such a thing!" the superintendent pouted as he crossed his arms and scrunched his eyes closed, trying to look frustrated. Wreck-It just smirked.
"Wow, Felix. You're acting bad already."
"I am not."
"Yes you are. You never decline an invitation to anything. And I mean ANYTHING."
"Well, this will be my first. I'll just go over to their game and tell them that I don't want to attend. And you'll be coming with me."
"And why do I have to go?"
"Because they said you could go too." Ralph dropped his smirk in surprise.
"Really?"
"Says right here." Felix pointed to a pair of symbols on the letter. Ralph's name in Mushroom is "Block Wolf", a brick Block, Chain Chomp and a circled "W". Although Ralph didn't know Mushroom, he could interpret the symbols by the Block.
"Well, that was really nice of them." His smirk returned. "Maybe it's to make it look like I'm your henchman." Fix-It sent him a small glare.
"Don't be ridiculous, Ralph! Why would they invite you for that?"
"Just a thought. Let's go." With Felix on board, Ralph got in the trolley, with a little struggle of course.
Soul Rider: Does anyone have a bad about this party? Don't worry, nothing too "bad" will happen. Get it?... Nevermind. By the way, I based Felix and Ralph's names in Mushroom off of what they derive from. "Felix" comes from the Latin word for "lucky" or "successful" and "Ralph" is from a name with the translation of "wolf" in the end. Any-who, please review.
