Hey you guys! As you can see, this is going to be a switch up story! And I'll be honest, LLB and GSG gave me the idea for this story with their contest. HOWEVER, I won't be able to join it because, well, I probably won't make it in time! I just had to discover it yesterday. X_X So yeah, I hope you guys don't mind me using the idea, and if you do, I'm sorry. I'll take it down if it offends you or something. :/ I just had no idea what to write about! And the topic of switching bodies really sparked my interest! Topic credit goes to GSG and LLB!
Other than that, please enjoy!
Within Master Hand's office...
"HEEEEEYYY... WHATCHA DOIN' THERE BRO?" Crazy Hand yells, louder than needed.
Master Hand sighs. "I'm checking over the brawlers, what does it look like?"
"OHHHHH! COOOOLLLLL..." Crazy Hand drones on. "HAHAHA JUST KIDDING! THAT SOUNDS BORING AS HELL."
Master Hand couldn't help but be just a little offended by that comment. "Think what you will. My job is fun."
"OH REALLLY~?" Crazy Hand yells in a skeptical way. "TELL ME, WHAT IS SO FUNNN ABOUT YOUR JOB?"
Master Hand was ready to impress. "Well if you didn't notice already, I control everything. I can make anyone do anything I want." He gestures towards the bunch of TVs in front on him. On every screen, there was a video set on each brawler.
"SO, YOU CAN MAKE THE BRAWLERS DO ANYTHING YOU WANT?" Crazy Hand takes a moment to think. "HMMMM... NOT BAD BRO. THAT ACTUALLY DOES SOUND INTERESTING." The hand couldn't resist asking about it now. "SHOW ME WHAT YOU CAN DO!"
"No. It isn't right to mess with the brawlers. I just check over them to make sure they aren't doing anything wrong," said Master Hand responsively.
Crazy Hand groans. "YOU ARE BOOORRRIINNNNGGGGGG!" he yells. "NO WONDER WHY YOU HAVE NO FRIENDS."
"You don't have any friends either."
"I KNOW THAT! GAWD. I'M JUST TRYING TO SAY YOU ARE THE MOST BORING HAND IN THE WORLD."
Master Hand could not take it anymore. "FINE! But a boring hand wouldn't do, this..." The hand pressed a button.
At that moment, both of the hands' attention went to the screen with Fox and Falco in it.
In their room, Fox was reading a book, and Falco was watching tv on the couch. All was calm and peaceful, until Falco spoke to Fox.
"Ey, Fox."
Fox ignored him and continued on reading.
"Ey yo, FOX."
The animal stopped his reading and sighed. "What now, Falco?"
"Theys be a fiya on yo head." Falco pointed to the top of Fox's head.
"Ha. Ha. Ha. How funny. There really couldn't be a fire on my-" Fox looked up and saw red blazing flames on his head. "AAAHHHHH! HOLY SHIT!" He got up from the couch and ran straight for the kitchen. When he got there, he turned on the faucet and stuck his head under the running water. "Ah~"
"Pfftt..." Falco snickered at his friend. "You should really pay attention to me next time, yo." He stood next to him.
Fox raised his head from the sink and looked at Falco with death in his eyes. "I shouldn't because...YOU PROBABLY DID THIS TO ME!" He tackled Falco down.
"AH! THE HELL YO?" Falco tried pushing Fox off but failed greatly. He continued getting beaten up by him until Wolf held up Fox by the back of his collar, and flinged him into the wall.
"CAN'T LET YOU DO THAT, STARFOX," he said.
...
"HAHAAHAHAHAHAA!" Crazy Hand and Master Hand laughed so hard.
"NOW THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!" Crazy Hand high fives his brother.
"Wow, that was so much fun..." Master Hand's mind started filling up with devious ideas.
"LET'S DO SOME MORE!"
"Agreed!"
The two hands pressed another button and their attention went to the screen with Link and Zelda in it.
"Zelda..." Link said, as he got on one knee and took Zelda's hand in his. "I've wanted to tell you this for a long time now."
"Y-Yes?" she replied, her heart beating twice as fast.
"I've always wanted to tell you that I..." His face goes all weird and his voice becomes erratic. "I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO HIT YOUR FACE WITH A BRICK."
"...What?" Zelda looked extremely confused, and at the same time, wanted to punch Link in the face so hard. "J-JERK!" She begins running away.
"N-No! I didn't mean it!" Link grabs her by the arm. For a moment, Zelda stops in her tracks to listen to him.
"What I meant to say was that I..." His face went all weird and his voice became erratic once again. "I SHOULD TAKE YOU TO GO GET A FACE TRANSPLANT."
With that, Zelda kicked him in the balls and walked away.
...
"AHAAHAHAHAHA!" The two hands couldn't breathe.
"ONE MORE! ONE MORE!" Crazy Hand begged.
"N-No, that's enough." Master Hand tried his best to stop laughing. "This is messed up!"
"AWWW C'MOON!" The crazier hand went up to a big red button. "WHAT DOES THIS DO~?" He reaches his finger over to press it.
"NO! DON'T PRESS THAT!" Master Hand tried to stop him, but he was too late.
The moment he pressed the button, the tv screen with Ness, TL, and Lucas, flashed. The two hands stared at it.
The three boys were playing video games together, when out of nowhere, a thunderbolt struck all of them.
"AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!" they screamed in pain.
When the thunderbolt faded away, the boys looked at each other. A few seconds later, their eyes widened.
"OH MY GOD! WHY DO I SEE ANOTHER ME?" TL shrieks.
"THAT'S WHAT I SHOULD BE ASKING!" says Ness.
"I FEEL WEEIRRRDD!" Lucas squeaks.
Right after that, the boys got up and ran around the room screaming.
...
"OH. SHIT," Master Hand and Crazy hand said together.
The two hands looked at each other shockingly. Then Master Hand slapped his brother across the face- I mean, index finger.
"YOU WENT TOO FAR DUMBASS!"
"I DIDN'T KNOW THAT WOULD HAPPEN!" Crazy Hand said guiltily. "B-BUT WE CAN FIX IT RIGHT?"
Master Hand looked at his brother with a frown. "NO, WE CAN'T! THAT'S WHY I NEVER PRESSED THAT BUTTON! BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW HOW!"
Then they floated there while panicking mentally.
"..."
"LET'S JUST AVOID THEM THEN." Crazy Hand thought out.
"Agreed."
They shook on it.
Meanwhile... with the three boys.
They were all running around screaming, until Ness ran into a wall, face first.
"OW!" He fell to the floor, rubbing his face. This seemed to quiet down the other two boys because they ran to Ness and asked him if he was alright.
"Yeah, I'm okay..." the wall to his face seemed to knock some sense into him. "But what we really should be worrying about is the fact that WE SWITCHED BODIES."
The three took a moment to absorb the info, and to calm down.
"Okay... so let's figure this out. I'm in Ness' body," Lucas said.
"And I'm in TL's body," Ness added in.
"And I'm in... A GIRL'S BODY!" TL screams.
"T-THAT'S MY BODY!" Lucas blushes in embarrassment.
"Oh..." TL ran his hands up and down Lucas' body, the one he was in. "Interesting..." He squints his eyes.
"STOP DOING THAT!" Ness smacked TL's hand. He was a getting a bit jealous. "We gotta focus on the matter at hand!"
"Okay, okay..." said TL.
(Reminder: Ness is in TL's body, Lucas is in Ness' body, and TL is in Lucas' body. I'll be telling the story by the actual characters, not the body they are in. Got it? ALRIGHTY THEN, LET'S GET ON WITH THE STORY~)
"S-So what are we gonna do now?" Lucas panics.
"We do what we have to do. Act like each other until we can get some help!" Ness concludes.
"Why?" TL asked.
Ness jerked his sight towards TL. "Why? WHY? You should know!" Ness takes a moment to explain. "Okay, we all have our own rep to keep up, right?"
TL and Lucas nod.
"And if we act like each other then our rep would be destroyed! The one we tried so hard to build up!" Ness tells them. He points at TL. "You have the rep of being fun and loud." He points to himself next. "I have the rep of being the loose and yet responsible one." Then he finally points to Lucas. "And you have the rep of being the...uh..."
"The gay one?" TL finishes for Ness.
Lucas pouts. "I'M NOT GAY!"
Ness hits TL on the arm. "He's not gay! He's just gentle... and meek."
"OW! Alright then!" TL rubs his arm.
"Okay, so now that we got that down, we are gonna need some help for this." Ness gets to the point.
"And speaking of help, why not ask Master Hand?" TL pitched in.
"Finally, TL thought of a good idea," Ness says, "yeah, let's go see him about this!"
Lucas nods in agreement.
Then, they all exited out their room and headed for Master Hand's office. On the way there, Ness advised everyone.
"Remember, act like each other until we get there," he reminds us, "better yet, let's not even try to bump into the people we know, kay?"
Lucas and TL nod. However, the moment Ness ended his sentence, the three boys bumped into Marth, Ike, and Link as they were rounding a corner.
'Goddammit...' the three boys thought.
"Oh, hey you guys!" Link greeted.
"HEEEY LINK! WHAT'S UP?" TL waved his hand, until he realized he was in Lucas' body.
"Hey Lucas, I'm doing good...?" Link said weirdly. He always thought Lucas was shy... especially around people like him. "You seem pretty loud today, eh?"
TL gulps and passes a look at Ness and Lucas. The two just stood there with a freaked out faces. So he had to improvise and act like Lucas.
"I-I MEAN... oh~ I'm Lucas and I'm so scared of you Link!" TL says unconvincingly as he put the back of his hand on his forehead. "Stay away from me! For I am too weak to come face-to-face with you!" He gets on his knees and sighs. "I AM GAY."
Lucas blushes as he flew into a gentle rage. Then he jumps into the conversation.
"O-Oh! Lucas is just not feeling well today! And I, Ness the strong and great, WILL HELP HIM O-OVERCOME IT!" Lucas flexes in front of the three swordsmen. "I SHALL KICK ASS ALL THE WAY! YEEAAAH! I'LL BEAT UP EVERYONE WITH MY AMAZING STRENGTH!" he yells. "And Lucas is not gay! He is actually really manly! I've seen him without his shirt on, and let me tell you, his body just screams manliness."
Ness shoots Lucas a 'WTF ARE YOU DOING' face. Then he too, pops in.
"AAHH! Don't mind these two! They're just having a weird day!" Ness chuckles nervously. "But don't worry about them, I'll be sure to take good care of them. Just a little bit of Advil or Asprin should do the trick...?" he says unsurely. 'Or hitting them across the head with a bat...' he thinks that to himself.
The three swordsmen stood there, with shocked looks on their face. Until Ike snapped out of it and continued the conversation.
"W-Wow TL, you sure are acting responsible and less... retarded today," Ike says to Ness, who was in TL's body.
When TL heard that, his head shot up. "WHO'RE YOU CALLING RETARDED? YOU BAS-" Lucas punched him in the face.
"WHOOPS! My fist accidentally punched TL- I mean, Lucas in the face!" Lucas smiles nervously. "B-But who could stop my amazing strength from hitting people?"
"Oh my god! Lucas, are you okay?" Marth went to (TL's) Lucas' side. Then he looked at (Lucas) Ness accusingly. "Ness! How could you do that to Lucas? I thought you cared about him!"
"I DO!" Ness blurted. He got the attention of everybody. "I mean uuhhh... I'M TOON LINK AND I'M RETARDED!" Then Ness took out TL's Wind Waker and threw it into the air. "CONFETTI~!" he said, putting on the most retarded face ever. He had his hands in the air as he ran around stupidly.
"GODDAMMIT NESS! I'M NOT THAT RETARDED!" TL yells. He covers his mouth as soon as he says that.
The three men were now staring at him. TL had on his best poker face he could muster at the moment. He really couldn't think of anything to say right now. Noticing this, Lucas took TL in his arms, bridal style.
"Oh my friend~ my best friend. I didn't mean to hurt you with my fists of steel!" Lucas said in the most sarcastic tone. "Therefore, I'll never hurt you again!" He pets TL on the head.
When he was done, TL glared at Lucas. Ever so quietly, he mouthed the words, 'I hate you' at Lucas. All that did was make the other boy chuckle. Lucas was just enjoying himself too much.
"..." Marth, Link, and Ike had no idea what to do. The awkwardness just got even more awkward when Ness(in TL's body) started screaming.
"AAAAAHHHHH!" Ness screamed momentarily. He then ran up to the three men and showed them a gray rock he had in his hands. "Psssstt! You know what this is?" he whispered loud enough for everyone to hear. "It's... a sandwich."
Marth, Ike and Link stook there, flabbergasted. Until Ike prayed aloud.
"Please god, grant me the power and skill to keep me from punching this kid in the face," he said, with his hands together and at the same time, looking at the ceiling.
"O-OKAY I THINK I'VE HAD ENOUGH!" Link was freaked out.
"ME TOO!" Marth said.
Then Marth and Link picked up Ike and ran away from the kids. As soon as they were gone, the three boys let out a relieved sigh.
"THANK GOD! They're finally gone..." said Ness.
However, instead of being glad they were gone, TL was pissed. He looked at Ness straight in the eyes. "WHY DID YOU MAKE ME LOOK SO RETARDED! YOU'RE HORRIBLE AT ACTING LIKE ME!" he scolded,"I mean seriously, my Wind Waker being confetti? Saying a rock is a sandwich? YOU PRACTICALLY RUINED MY REP!"
Lucas scoffs. "HAH! Like you're the one to talk. You're the one here who probably acted the worse out of all of us! You made me look like I didn't like Link, and you made me look gay!"
"Okay Lucas, I appreciate the fact that you are trying to defend me, but really, your acting was horrible too! Probably more horrible than Toon Link's! You made me look like an abuser in front of them!" Ness complained.
"Grrr... well maybe if TL would learn how to act better, I wouldn't have had to step in and act horribly!" Lucas fought back, for once.
"FINE THEN! I admit it, I was a bad actor. BUT THE WORST ONE HERE IS NESS!" TL yelled.
They continued fighting and fighting, until they all grew tired. All of them frowned and sighed.
"How about I say this? We're all bad actors. There," Ness concludes, out of breath.
Lucas and TL nod.
"Let's just get to Master Hand already..." TL groaned.
"Yeah, I don't want to stay like this forever," Lucas admitted.
The three walked and walked until they reached the entrance to Master Hand's office, where they knocked on the door.
"Master Hannddd!" Lucas called, knocking gently.
"HELP USSS!" TL banged on the door.
"WE SWITCHED BODDIEESSS!" Ness knocked so hard, a crack was formed on the door.
They stopped knocking when they heard faint whispers past the door. The boys put their ears against it, to listen.
"OOOH CRAPP! THEY'RE HERE! OH GOD OH GOD OH GOD!" Crazy Hand whispered, a bit too loudly.
"Shut up! They'll hear you!" Master Hand nudged his brother with his pinkie.
"...Uuhhh, we already hear you guys!" Ness told them.
"OH MY GOD THEY HEAR US!" Crazy Hand panicked.
"Yeah, AND YOUR VOICE ISN'T HELPING AT ALL!" Master Hand punched him.
"OWWWW!"
"MASTER HAANNDDD! PLEASE OPEN THE DOOR! WE NEED YOUR HELP!" TL begged.
"I'M SORRY, WE'RE BUSY!" Crazy Hand lied. "WE ARE BUSY UHHH TRYING TO FIND OUR CONTACTS! IT APPEARS WE HAVE DROPPED THEM AND NOW WE CANNOT SEE."
"But... you guys are hands," Lucas pointed out.
Crazy Hand floated silently in the air as he slowly turned towards his brother. His bro looked pissed.
"You. Are. A. Dumbass." Master Hand glared at him.
"I'M SORRY..." the crazier hand apologized.
"PLLEAAAASSSEEEEEEEEE HELP USSSS!" the three boys said altogether. Their bodies leaned against the door.
"I-I'm sorry boys! But we are hopelessly busy! Please leave," Master Hand said with remorse.
The three boys sighed in defeat. "Okay..." they said at the same time.
"I-I hope you get finished with your stuff soon..." said Lucas, sadly. Then they all walked back to their room.
When they were gone, Master Hand floated there, feeling guilty as ever. "I..." he starts, "I'll find a cure for them no matter what it takes!"
"AH YES~ SURE YOU WILL," Crazy Hand says, floating slowly to the intercom that leads to every room in the entire Mansion. It's usually used for reminders Master Hand has to give to the brawlers. Apparently he has devised a plan. Already.
While he was doing that, Master Hand set up random chemicals and gadgets on a wooden table and began fixing up a cure for them.
So Crazy Hand took this as an opportunity to put his devious plan into action. He turned on the intercom and spoke through it.
"WHAAATTTT'S UUPPPP BRAWLERSSSS? IT'S ME, THE ONE AND ONLY CRAZY HAND! MUAAHAHAHAA! AND I HAVE A SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT TO MAKE!"
Everyone in the mansion tuned in.
"THERE WILL BE A FIGHT BETWEEN TOON LINK, NESS, AND LUCAS TOMORROW AT 11:00 AM!"
At that moment, Master Hand turned around and saw his brother speaking into the intercom. "What the hell are you doing?"
Crazy Hand happily ignored him and continued on.
"EVERYONE IS TO REPORT TO THE ARENA TO WATCH THEM. NO EXCUSES. YOU ARE GOING, NO MATTER WHAT."
"Crazy Hand, CRAZY HAND. WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" Master Hand yelled.
"CIAO~! HOPE TO SEE YOU GUYS THERE!"
With that, he turned off the intercom. As soon as he did, Master Hand punched him again, harder. "WHY DID YOU DO THAT?"
The punched hand was knocked back into a shelf of books, which toppled over him."OWWWW! I WAS JUST HAVING MY OWN FUUNNN!" he said.
Master Hand has just about had it with his troublesome brother. "Oh, you just wanted to have a little fun, eh? How about you have a little fun IN THIS ROOM!" he pushes his brother into a room full of right-handed things.
"NNNNNOOOOOOOOOO! I-I'M LEFT-HANDED! NOT RIGHT-HANDED! AAAHHHHHHHHHHH!" Crazy Hand screams, "PLEASE LET ME OUUUUUUUUUUUTTTTT!"
"Nope," Master Hand concluded. He continued on with his experiments as his brother cried in pain.
And as for the boys...
"OH," Ness started.
"HELL," TL added.
"NO," Lucas finished.
TL, Ness, and Lucas stood there in their room, mouths were gaping, and eyes were opened widely. They heard Crazy Hand's announcement clean and clear.
Apparently, they will have to fight when they don't even know how to use each other's powers. Not to mention everyone will be watching them, so they'll have to keep in character the whole time too!
"...We're screwed," they said altogether.
And there you have it! I hope you enjoyed! There'll be a chapter 2! Just a reminder right there. :D Have a good day and stay awesome!
