This is my first fic.. it's a Marth/Zelda romance.. Well I think that they are an absolutely adorable couple and I just wanted to write about them. I know MirriNight666 already wrote one, but this is just my idea of one, and besides, we're all different in our own ways.

If you read the summary you would know the plot. I hope you all like this fic! But Please r+r or I won't continue. Flames are accepted but please don't be too harsh; I am very sensitive.

The crowd was getting restless as they waited for the last battle of the tournament to start. The contenders were Marth and Roy; it was a surprise to everyone that these two friends could finally battle against eachother. They were always on eachother's teams.

Finally, the Final Destination Stage was set up, and Marth and Roy appeared out of no where.

"The battle is about to begin!" the announcer announced through his microphone thing. "Three.. two.. one.. GO!"

The battle started with a bang when Roy quickly unleashed a strong sword attack on Marth. But Marth did not give up. He sent Roy flying upwards with another sword attack of his.

The battle went on and on. Marth and Roy continuously took turns attacking eachother. Finally, a crate popped up behind Roy. He grabbed it and threw it on Marth, squashing him as flat as a pancake.

"Ouch! You did that on purpose!" Marth griped, rubbing his head.

"Nah, really?" Roy remarked sarcastically.

Then, a barrel fell on top of Marth's head and he fell on the floor. Lying there, he was quite too tired to get up. "Ouch. What an unlucky day."

Roy walked next to him and kicked him. Marth was sent flying out of the ring. "One kick and he's done with!" Roy laughed.

Half of the crowd flew up, cheering and screaming. But the other half was crying and booing because Marth had lost.

Roy jumped out of the ring and went to sit down on the bleachers. Sweat was poring off of his face. Some of his other friends came to congratulate him.

"Wow Roy! Even though that was a cheap battle, I'm surprised!" Fox cheered on for him.

"That was amazing," Mario said.

While Roy was being congratulated, Link was up on a higher bleacher, sobbing and cursing at himself.

"I just had to lose against all of them at the beginning," Link said to himself.

Zelda, seeing him from afar, walked to him and sat by his side. "Aww, c'mon, Link. It was just a tournament. Marth lost, too."

"JUST a tournament? Zelda, that was a tournament that is going to be aired on T.V.! Do you know how humiliated I am going to be? I was knocked off the ring by a wandering Bomb-omb!"

"That was kinda funny," Zelda giggled. Link growled and showed his teeth. "Okay okay, it wasn't funny. But don't get your panties in a wad."

Link mumbled some other things to himself Zelda did not hear. He walked away. Zelda sighed and saw Marth. He was by himself, so Zelda went to go talk to him.

"Hi Marth," she said softly.

"Hello Zelda," he said stiffly.

Both of them looked anywhere but themselves. There was moments of silence.

"So, um, good battle huh?" Zelda said, breaking the hush.

"Yes. Good battle."

Zelda sighed and sat down by him. "I'm sorry you lost. You've trained so hard to win this. But you did a great performance, Marth! From the start to the end. You were on a complete winning streak!"

"Until the end," he mumbled. "I guess Roy trained harder than I did."

"It doesn't matter! All that matters is that you were in the tournament of the year," Zelda said. Cheering up this boy was hard.

"I.. I guess you are right. Why weren't you in it?"

"Because I sprained my ankle."

"But for now let's go through the good times that happened in the battle! Remember when DK got his head stuck in the tunnel at the Yoshi's Island
Stage?" Zelda said.

"Yeah, and when Samus was burned to death by acid?" Marth said.

"Yeah!" They started laughing so hard that Marth fell off the bleacher and landed on the floor, face flat. "Are you okay?"

"Peachy," Marth said. He got up and rubbed his forehead. "Say, uhh, want to go grab a bite with me? After a tournament, I'm starved."

Zelda smiled and watched him get up. He waved his hand for her to follow him. 'He is a cutie,' Zelda thought.

To be continued..

Sound like a good start? Sorry if I made Marth look like an ass in that battle but when it comes to action I suck.. so.. sorry! Just please read and review, or I won't continue and I'll burn it.
