I do not own anything, not the characters of ssbb, lieutenant Mein and Jakiren is made up.
Theres the boring disclaimer, anyway, its pit's first winter at the smasher mansion, and things don't go so well with a few things. Enjoy!
Chapter 1: curses or not?
A figure shivered, huddled under a blanket that seemed to be insufficient for some reason. The laughter of children from outside in the halls helped bring the newer smasher out of his current stupor. Getting up he noticed that his window was open, shivering again he drew his wings around himself to try to preserve warmth closing the window. Looking out he noticed immediately something was wrong, he rubbed his eyes to make sure he wasn't still sleeping, but looking outside it was still there, from inside his toga he grabbed what looked like a small compact round hand mirror make up kit, but when he opened it it was 2 blank screens, muttering a small spell he saw the top screen go white as the bottom one showed his reflection, after a few moments the whiteness of the top screen went away, replaced now with the image of an older Chinese looking male with alarming red eyes and solid gold hair, golden wings ruffling behind him.
"Captain! What, I mean, do you need something captain?" said the startled figure at he recognized pit.
"Yes, lieutenant, I need to know if the dark goddess has been doing anything, any hints of anything, spells mainly." pit said his eyes switching from his lieutenant to outside. Noticing that his captains gaze was mostly elsewhere he answered
"No Captain, there has been no reports of anything since your departure, the occasional stray demon, and you already know of the rogue demon Jakiren who asked to join us, other than that there has been nothing new. Captain, is everything alright down there? If its not out of turn to speak, you seem worried Captain." he seemed to shrink back as Pits gaze went back to him,
"Hmm…no Lieutenant Mein you have not spoken out of turn, I just wanted to check up, if anything is reported alert me immediately." Pit said just a little coldly
"Of course Captain, also Captain, please forgive me, but I must be going, it is my turn for sentry duty." he said once again calm and relaxed as he saw pits eyes go distant in thought,
"That's right, it is, get to your post Lieutenant, and contact me should anything happen" he said as he remembered the schedule he had made before leaving. "Yes Captain Pit. Goddesses blessing to you" he said saluting before the screens went blank again. Closing it he put it back in his toga he walked out of his room looking around. It had been 6 months ago when he had gotten an invite to join in the new super smash brothers thing. Upon request of Palutena insisting that it would be good for him and also allow him to enhance his skills further he left. It was easier than he thought it would be, and most were nicer than normal to him, despite his attitude. It was learned by others that his past was less than pleasant, making it hard for him to trust anyone, and shortly after his arrival to angel land he had somehow become the captain of the royal guard, and lead commander of the angelic army, so everyone was either of a lower rank than him, or his goddess.
Acknowledgement of equals was difficult for Pit, to remedy that he acknowledged them by their own rank, if they were royalty, or heroes, or something along those lines, he would acknowledge them that way. Such as princess hyrule, princess toadstool, hylian heroes, koopa king, etc…thankfully it did not bother most of the other smashers and some would acknowledge him in a similar manner, addressing him as captain. In the 6 months that he had been there, he had made some friends and found it slightly easier to acknowledge those people as equals instead of rank, but it was still hard and when he was distracted would often forget that. In the midst of his thoughts he didn't watch where he was going bumping into someone throwing them both on the ground.
"owwww, huh? Oh hey pit, are you alright?" came a familiar voice looking up he was surprised at the figure in front of him
"Oh, Princess Hyrule, I'm fine thanks." he said picking himself up and after straightening out his wings met her gaze
"How do you fare Zelda?" he asked as she had started to giggle.
"I'm fine thanks. Pit is something wrong? You look worried." she asked as his gaze once again went towards a window to look out.
"I don't know Zelda, Lieutenant Mein says that the dark goddess Medusa hasn't done anything, but I have a feeling that she did something and avoided detection." he said not even paying much attention to the fact that next to no one understood what he said when talking about angel land problems but she nodded anyway.
"Ok, and what exactly do you suppose she did? This goddess of yours?" she asked as Pit whirled around on her.
"First of all, the Goddess Medusa is the dark goddess, and is not my goddess, hasn't been for literally eons. My goddess is the goddess of light Palutena, and second to answer your question Zelda, that." he said pointing out a window. Looking out she became puzzled.
"I'm sorry Pit, but is there something wrong? I see nothing out of the ordinary." she said turning back to him who now looked like he was deep in thought.
"Zelda…tell me then, if there is nothing out of the ordinary then what is it that I am seeing out there? Its kinda hard to miss since its everywhere." he said a little more coldly than he had wanted, but she didn't seem to mind as she once again looked out the window he was pointing to.
"Pit please what are you talking about?" she asked as she had started to search around for whatever seemed to be upsetting the angel. Opening the window in exasperation he held out one of his blades, after a few moments he brought it back in for her inspection.
"Look closely Zelda, what do you see on my blade?" as understanding dawned on her she smiled.
"Pit, are you talking about all the white that's everywhere?" she asked after a few moments he nodded as his eyes followed hers to out the window.
"It's called snow. It happens in winter, I'm just surprised it came so late this year." she mumbled as he stared at the floor in thought.
