I tried to get this up sooner, but I've been pretty busy. The next chapter, I will try to get it up soon. I have a lot of papers due for school...Psychology, History, Biology...Graduation Project sighs

Disclaimers: If I owned this...SSBM would be a horrible game. Of COURSE the name of the fic came from Fire Emblem: Rekka no Ken.

Warnings: Cursing. Scary Marth-ness. SHOUNEN-AI! Shounen-ai is 'boys love' SO DON'T FLAME ME BECAUSE YOU HATE IT! God, read something else. And I have decided to leave the genre as 'humor' for now. I really like angst, so if some of the scenes in the later chapters seem angsty...forgive me. And I will think up better chapter names...soon...

Road of Trials

Chapter 2: Adjusting

I yawned as I sat down on Roy's bed. Boy, did he love to talk a lot.

"Okay, there are some things you have to know." He said, banging his door shut. I was scanning his room for his cape, I always wanted to wear one...

"NESS! Pay attention. About me and Marth..."

"Yeah! What about you two?" I questioned, moving my face closer to Roy's. He crossed his arms and glared at me.

"Get away from me! So Marth, when he talks to you, don't act disgusted. He's kind of...flirty...with me. You got that?"

Oh yeah...I wasn't even trying to listen to him. But I nodded anyway, which made Roy raise one eyebrow.

"You're probably curious, huh?"

"No."

"Silence you cad! All I can tell you is that we are really good friends. Really good friends...if you get my drift."

"Nope."

"SILENCE! If he ever asks you this question, 'Will you marry me?' just giggle and try and change the subject. And-"

"Why would he ask that?"

"Are you dense!"

Just when I was about to yell at Roy for calling me 'dense', Marth burst into the room. He glowered down at Roy, before skipping over to me, a very evil skip it was. He twirled around and fell onto the bed, putting his arms around my waist.

"Ness! Leave this vicinity at once! I need some alone time with my hunnie."

Roy narrowed his eyes, gave me one last look, and left his room, slamming the door...again.

I swear, one day he will destroy that poor thing...

Marth sighed happily and smiled, "So, how did you enjoy last night?"

"Last night?"

He got off me, pushing his blue bangs out of the way of his eyes and winked.

Why is he winking? Who the hell winks?

"Do not play dumb with me, Roy. I know you enjoyed it..."

"Enjoyed what?"

"You know, when you play dumb, it's really cute. It makes you irresistible."

Marth is seriously scary...

His fingers began walking up my legs, which made me giggle like the Pillsbury Dough Boy. Marth grinned, pushed me back and then got on top of me. "Do you want me to do it again?"

Right after he said that, Roy came back. His eyes widened and he dove to the floor, screaming, "NO! Why is this happening!"

Marth's face got seriously screwed up as he turned his head, "What the hell is wrong with you? Don't you have anything better to do?"

"Heehee! You rhymed!" I squealed, a bit uncharacteristically. But what can I say, when someone rhymes, I get all happy.

Roy got up, bearing a look of disgust, before he reluctantly backed out of the room. He kept staring at us, even when he began closing the door.

Marth promptly removed himself from me and got to his knees. I sat up and scratched my armpit, which made the blue haired man cough loudly, "Roy. Even if I have asked you this many times..." He brought out a black box from his desert camo pants, and opened it. "Will you marry me?"

Why is he so random? But that ring looked pretty hot. My hands snaked forward, about to snatch it from the box...

"REMEMBER WHAT I SAID!" I heard Roy yell, really loudly.

"Shut the hell up!" Marth bellowed back, getting to his feet and running to the door. He threw it open, making Roy tumble to the ground. Apparently, he was listening to the whole conversation. Marth immediately picked him up, gave him a few, quick spanks and threw him down the hall.

My mouth just dropped as the prince proceeded beating the hell out of Roy. If only he knew who that really was...

After Marth was done with his task, he came back into Roy's dorm and rushed over to me, getting into the same position he was in before.

"I want to spend my whole life with you."

I narrowed my eyes, damn, the diamond ring looked expensive. My hand snaked out again, getting ready to grab it once more.

"And please Roy, don't try to giggle and change the subject. Like you always do."

I thought for a second, trying to remember what Roy had said to me. Which I couldn't recall...

I glanced down at the ring again...I truly wanted to try it out too...

"Well, yes! Of course I will marry you!" I responded, after a minute of silence. I instantly took the ring and placed it on my finger, laughing menacingly.

Marth just stared at me and squinted, "What did you say?"

"Uh...yes?"

Did I say the wrong thing?

Marth kept that dumbfounded look for another minute or two, before a grin spread on his face. "I can't believe you said yes! After all these years of my charm, my handsome features, those midnight escapades, I finally got you!"

Oh snap...

Marth grabbed my hand, inspecting the ring on my finger, "Now I must go prepare a special date for the ceremony! I will be back!" And with that, he glided out of my room...literally...

It didn't take long for Roy to come back, and his cheeks were red from the multiple smacks he received from his soon-to-be husband. "Why is Marth so happy? What did you say?" He asked, fixing the cap on his head. Did it irritate him? I wonder...

"I said I'll marry him. Wait, you'll marry him. No...wait..."

"You said what!" He screeched, clawing at his head. "No! I don't want to be stuck with him! That would mean endless ROLE-PLAYING and so much pleasure and pain!"

"What do you mean?"

Roy stopped acting crazy and smirked. "Pleasure, pain, role-playing?"

I nodded, making him snicker.

"Not going to tell you!" He said, turning around and leaving the room, giving me a petty wave.

No...NO! I had to know! I jumped off the bed and flew out of the dorm, chasing after him. "Tell me!"

"Never, you bastard! You have to catch me first!" Roy laughed as he began to run down the hallway, flailing his arms about.

Maybe he was stupid, didn't he know I had longer legs than him?

I scowled, so that's how he always caught up when he was pursuing me. I reached out and grabbed the back of his shirt, pulling him up. "Tell me!"

"Okay! Just put me down first." He demanded, after I had placed him back on the floor. I narrowed my eyes and tapped my foot, waiting for his explanation. Roy dusted himself off and adjusted his cap...again...

"When a man and a women love each other very much..."

I let out a growl, not this speech again. Peach had told me the same thing, when I asked about where babies came from.

'When a man and a women love each other very much, they go out and have some cake. And then the man proposes and says she is very pretty, unlike MARIO. Dude, I know I look hot.'

I bit my lower lip and rolled my eyes, Peach had gone on and on about how Mario never proposed to her, or called her 'pretty' a day in her life.

"...And then they have sex and have a baby. But this has nothing to do with what we were talking about." Roy said, ending his explanation...which I wasn't listening to...

"Ohhh Roooy!"

We both groaned at the same time, it was Marth again. Why did he always bother me?

I turned my head slightly, putting on hand on my hip as he came flying down the dimly lit hallway, literally.

This scene reminded me of how, whenever I saw him battling someone, he always seemed to resist gravity and float around. Then again...we all defy gravity...

Especially Kirby...

Marth stopped his flying and landed right next to me. Then he began poking me...really hard...in my arm. What the hell was his problem?

"I can't believe you said yes! I am surprised, with Lilina and all..."

"Who?" I questioned, eyeing Roy, who was staring at Marth...with a strange look in his eyes.

Marth also noticed this and took a step forward. He leaned closer to Roy, bending down a little and raising his right hand, "I do not like that perverted glint in your eyes!" After he said that, he knocked Roy's head, and then flicked his forehead.

"It's not fair!" Roy wailed, reaching out for a hug.

Marth looked utterly disgusted and took three steps back, giving me an idea.

"Sorry, Ness, Marth's off limits," I snorted, winking at him. "Besides, no one wants you. Your head defies gravity."

"Yes, but then again, we all do..." Marth muttered under his breath, rubbing his chin. "What an intriguing thought..."

Roy sighed, "We defy gravity? Dude, you and Kirby defy gravity. And Jigglypuff."

"Shut it, Ness. I do not wish to talk to you. Only Roy," Marth brushed his bangs from his eyes and nodded. "Ahh yes, Zelda and the others told me to call you guys down to eat."

I looked at Roy and he looked at me, "I'm starving!" We both screamed, hightailing our ass' out of the area.

When we reached downstairs, we both went straight for the dining area, where everyone had a look of exasperation on their face.

"Finally, you guys are here. We've been waiting for you three forever!" Link growled at us, taping his fingers on the brown, polished table.

I never noticed how long the table was...probably because I was so short.

Marth pulled me to both of our seats, near the left end of the table, while Roy sat next to Young Link, which was near the middle.

I had to say, the chairs seemed a little different now...or maybe it was because Marth's hand was groping my butt...

I looked over the food; today's breakfast was waffles, hash browns, fried eggs and links. One of my favorites!

Marth nudged my side and whispered, "Hey, do you want me to eat that for you?"

I leaned over to him slightly, "Why?"

He paused and raised an eyebrow, much like Roy, before he whispered back, "You hate this type of food."

"I do?" I gasped, Roy sure did have weird taste. Speaking of him, I glanced over to where he was sitting. Roy had a look of horror on his face, poking the eggs with the fork and grimacing afterwards.

"Nasty!" He screeched, pushing the white, glazed ceramic plate away from him. "Who made this crap? You know I don't like it!" He bellowed, making Young Link give him a hateful glare.

"Ness...it's what you like." Bowser said, shifting his eyes from me to Roy, then to me again.

Roy stood from his chair, shoving Young Link and his chair, out of his way, "No, I don't like this crap. It makes people turn into fat blobs. I, for one, prefer Caviar, canned Tuna, with boiled egg, bacon and pancakes. Waffles suck." He explained in a matter-of-fact voice.

"Isn't that what Roy likes?" Falco asked, shoving his eggs in his mouth. "Caviar with Tuna is disgusting."

"Is that even possible?" Ganon said, leaning back on his chair.

Roy eyed him, "You guys just have no class."

"Ohh yeah, wearing shorts and a T-shirt is so classy." Fox cried out, wiping a tear from his eyes.

Was he still crying?

Roy stopped his rant, putting on a thoughtful look, before gasping in terror, "Nes- I mean, Roy! Come, I must discuss something with you!"

"Don't tell me what to do."

One evil glower from him made me get to my feet in an instant and rushing over to his side.

I followed him to the front, leaving everyone eating at the table. And leaving Marth...with no one at his side...to touch...

That actually made me feel bad.

Roy opened the front door and we walked outside. He sat down on the brick steps, "Waffles suck."

"Is that why you called me outside!"

"Pretty much." Roy answered back, throwing me a sheepish grin. I let a growl and a string of curse words, containing: foolish fool, bastard, monkey lover, escape my lips, before I uttered,

"You made me leave Marth for this?"

"I was kidding, and I have more to...what did you just say!" He shrieked, jumping at least five feet in the air and his face turning paler than before. I covered my ears, my foot came out and kicked him in the side.

"What? Why did you scream?" I asked, pulling on my ear lobes.

Roy sighed, "Nothing, nothing. But I have a few more things to tell you..."

"I hope it's not as boring as your last speech."

"Did you even listen to what I said last time...?"

"Yes." I lied, leaning back and breaking the lantern that was randomly placed there...

ZOMG, I ended this. I really hope you guys realized the whole 'marriage' thing is a joke...right?

Riiiiigggghhhhttttt...

Please R and R, and no flames!
