Nana turned her head to see Ness staring at her with wide eyes and that same small smile.

"I..I.." She struggled to speak, what was going to happen to her if she said something that would upset him?

"I've been fine. Though I've been wondering if you'd like to go train with me," He jumped down from behind the organ and around it to stand by Nana.

"No, I have to go...make some food.." She choked out the words. Why had she forgotten her hammer?

"Really?" Ness bent down next to her and gazed at her. "But I'd like to train."

Nana panicked. She could only use her ice powers to protect herself. But the heat of this room wasn't exactly helping her, not to mention that Ness was venting all of his psionic fire energy around the two children. "I can't! I have to make breakfast for Popo and I!"

Ness's smile faded and his eyes disappeared under his hair. He made a sound of annoyance. "You have to make some for Popo? But why that damn..." He muttered, loud enough for Nana to hear him.

Nana realized what she had to do. She got up and started to sprint for the door, only to be stopped by a strong force penetrating her temples. "No way...he's not using his psychic powers outside of a match or the training room, is he?" She said to her herself, her entire body shaking.

"If only, then you wouldn't be here right now. You'd be hiding," Ness's voice chirped up, he was standing just a few inches besides her. Nana couldn't see him at all, not even out of the corners of her eyes.

The psychic continued to speak. "I'd find you eventually though, and you'd be begging for forgiveness...you know, after I had a 'chat' with you," His voice lowered to a whisper and he was now talking in her ear, his breath was warm and light.

Nana trembled even harder. What was he going to do to her?

Ness put his right hand on Nana's cheek, then prodded it with his nail. "So," he put his head over the climber's other shoulder. "What can I do that won't kill you?"

Nana looked at him, his eyes were a seductive violet and his smile was now a grin.

Ness started listing off a bunch of horrible things. "I could shock you, I could bind you and keep you in the basement, I could steal you," His voice got louder, he slightly laughed.

Nana narrowed her eyes. "You wouldn't dare. What would happen if I told Master Hand?"

"What would happen if you never got the chance?" The smile on Ness's face grew, he pushed his free hand onto Nana's stomach, causing her to wobble on her feet. He removed his right hand from the girl's face and pushed her again, causing her to fall.

Nana slightly got up, then started to sprint again. "It's take two! You won't catch me!" She huffed, running out the door.


"It's been three hours," Nana was hiding in the place Ness would least expect.

Under the sink in the Mother Dorm's bathroom. Why would he ever look for her in his own dorm? It's perfect. The boy was bright, REALLY bright, but even he could get dumbfounded at points.

...Right?

She slightly opened the cabinet to see Lucas staring at her curiously.

"Ness is looking for you."

Nana bit her lip. "Don't tell him. Please. I don't want to see him."

The blonde ran his fingers through his hair, he slightly sighed. "Why?"

"I'm scared of him," Nana's voice trailed off, she was prepared for a flood of questions.

Instead, Lucas opened the door and asked the same question. "Why?"

Nana shook her head. She couldn't tell. No way. "Sorry, but it's kind of...secret."

Lucas nodded, then closed the cabinet door. He went to go open up the door to the bathroom, but found a surprise on the other end.

"Thought you were taking a shower?" Ness asked, his eyes bright with joy and energy.

"I changed my mind, but I have something to tell you."

The boy tilted his head. "What?"

"She's under the sink."


"Oh, Nanaaaaa..."

Nana widened her eyes and held her breath. Did Lucas just tell?

The cabinet door opened, Ness's eyes were crazed, and his hair was frazzled.

"I found you. Do you know what that means?"

Nana slightly shook her head.

"It means that I've won." He grabbed her ankle and dug his nails into it, slightly penetrating the skin.

"Damnit.." Nana tried to pull his hand off, only to fail.

"Why don't you come out and see me?" Ness dragged her out of the cabinet and held her down.

"What're you gonna do?!" Nana demanded, struggling under his weight.

"Oh, you'll see," Ness grabbed his baseball bat from behind him.

"You aren't gonna do that, are you?" Nana sweatdropped.

The boy's face slightly twisted in disgust. "Oh come on, I'm not that cruel, but I will do this," Ness let go of Nana's leg and swung the bat into Nana's stomach.

Nana cried out in pain, coughing up a small amount of blood, she broke out of Ness's hold and clutched her stomach, writhing in pain.

Ness stood up and rolled his eyes. "It didn't hurt that much. I hit you gently."

Nana stared up at him. "Gently?! You just slammed your baseball bat into my stomach!"

Ness stared at her with his eyes tranced. "I can do that if you want me to," he said blankly, completely oblivious to Nana's complaints.

Nana widened her eyes. "W-What?! No way!" She rolled over onto her back.

"That's making you even more vulnerable," Ness noted, poking her with his bat.

Nana kicked Ness in the ankles, which caused him to flinch, then swiped the bat out of his hand and held it in a defensive position. "Tell me what's wrong with you!" Nana demanded.

Ness smiled seductively. He reached behind his back and pulled out a cleaver. "Be mine, and don't talk to anyone else, and maybe I'll tell you."

Nana gritted her teeth, put down the bat and shoved her hands onto Ness's abdomen, causing him to flinch, then put her hands on his collarbone and released her ice energy, forcing him to move onto the ground.

Nana grabbed the cleaver and held it to the boy's fingers. "Now that you're the victim," Nana bent down and frowned. "Tell me why your so obsessive." "It's because I love you. I want you to be all mine, and I want us to be happy and never have anyone interfere," Ness laughed, prodding the cleaver with his middle finger, feeling how dull it was. "I should sharpen this later."

"There isn't going to be a 'later', Ness. You've done enough." Nana said, slightly pushing the blade onto his finger.

Her hands trembled at this task. Would it cut him too much? She just wanted to cut one off. Not a bunch. Would he cry making someone burst into the room? No, it wouldn't. He would most likely be aroused by it.

But no. Nana was wrong.

She snapped back into reality to realize Ness was crying loudly, and trembling and sniffling and everything else you would see an innocent schoolgirl do.

Nana smiled. "Guess what, Ness?" Her voice was playful. "You're the one begging for forgiveness, now."


A/N: (eye twitches) How was it? Did you enjoy it? I know, it's dramatic, but you have to remember this story is by the biggest drama queen you've ever met.

Review, perhaps? And maybe some suggestions? ;) (Next chapter should be up in the next few days, I've already started it. Smash Gazette will be done by Sunday, Eastern Time Zone {United States})
