Yet again, I claim no ownership other than this story.
KingdomKey23: Thanks for the review, I plan on reading your stories once I am done with mine(I'm just afraid I'll copy you if I read it.) Don't worry about the one you couldn't get. That's Megaman Volnutt. He is from Megaman Legends, there was one of them on N64, but 2 was only on Playstation. So don't worry about your fan level. Thanks for all the compliments, check your mail for 1 Beedle's appreciation. Chapter 2 is done and I hope you enjoy it.
Fire, fear, panic. Everything he could see was burning, the world was burning. Suddenly the noise of the fire ceased. From out of the flames the head of a shadowed stallion emerged from the fire. It's eyes burned with malice and anger, it could paralyze one with a glance. Yet his eyes were not on the horse, they were on the nightmare mounted atop it.
His hair was red as hellfire. His skin gray and blackened, perhaps by the evils he had committed. His eyes seemed to stare straight into your core, and freeze your heart in an instant. He paused and looked at the meek figure, and laughed. A raspy sinister laugh that spoke of true maniac joy.
"Who are you, boy?" He said flippantly. "How is it you're able to enter this place? Are you some kind of hero?" He said in a cruel mocking voice. "It doesn't matter to me anyways. No hard feelings boy.". His hand began to turn pitch black, fear radiated from it. Suddenly, he lunged!
"Aaaaah!" Link awoke with a yelp as he fell out of his hand carved bed. The thump of him hitting the hard wood floor awoke him from his frightened stupor. He looked around his house, there was nothing out of the ordinary, just his normal messy room. Bowls were scattered across his floor(courtesy of his laziness), his wooden sword(crudely carved from a Deku Stick) lay next to his house's entrance, and his blankets were in a jumble on the floor. He breathed a sigh of relief. Then he settled his eyes on the puppet hanging on the wall, the one he found laying in the forest on one of his "adventures". He ran his hand across it's curly orange hair and chuckled. "You certainly are an ugly thing aren't you?"
"...What was that?" The doll said sleepily, his eyes slowly flickering open and resting on the young boy clad in green in front of him. "Did I hear screaming?" he murmured, still trying to shake himself of slumber.
"I said that you...certainly...a-are...an.. Aaah!" Link tumbled backwards with a yell, eyes wide with shock. He bumped his head on the wooden table, and clutched it while muttering a few choice phrases in pain. Slowly he stood up, wary of this new presence in front of him. "You... Just talked."
"Ah yes, I tend to do that from time to time." The doll said with the tiniest hint of amusement in his voice. "As you can tell I am no ordinary doll." Link nodded his head slowly. "Well forget about explanations for now, let us head outside. I need to know where this is, and why he would have sent this body here."
Link, being one who knew when pursuing something was pointless, signaled the odd doll to follow him, and left the house. Geno began to move his limbs, not quite used to the feeling of this body again. After a few seconds he realized he must be really rusty, he hadn't moved an inch. Then it dawned on him. "Um... boy? A little help here? I seem to be hanging on a hook."
A few seconds of struggle and one apology later, Geno was gazing around a large forest. The forest was composed of the most pleasant green grass and tree tops one could ever hope to see. Tall trees surrounded this small clearing which was composed of little huts made of tree stumps. "Quite a beautiful place you have here, excuse me I forgot to ask your name, as for me, I am... Geno." he said with a polite nod of his head.
"I'm Link, nice to meet you Geno." he said with a smile. "This is the Kokiri village, it is where we the Kokiri live in peace." he said, a slight look of discontent on his face. "Most Kokiri call it a paradise, I think it's a little bit dull though." He said with a sigh. Geno began to open his mouth to console him.
"Liiinnk!" a cute yet boisterous voice called across the clearing. A girl about the same size as Link, with hair as green as the beautiful grass around them, held back by a thin wooden hair band, came running over. "Link do you want to go for another..." she died off as she turned her attention to Geno. "Link is that the doll you found?" she asked, green eyes full of wonder, prodding Geno with her finger.
"Excuse me young lady," she jumped back "but that is a bit uncomfortable." he said in a courteous voice. He quickly reached up and straightened out his hat and reached a hand out towards her. "Hello, I am Geno. I'm a new friend of Link's, and he was just showing me around your beautiful village."
Blushing out of embarrassment of her actions and being referred to as a lady, she brought her hand up to shake his. "H-Hello, I'm Saria. I'm one of Link's close friends, forgive me for my rudeness please.".
"Not at all Ms. Saria," he said with a smile "now if you don't mind, I'm going to look around a bit." and he walked towards the brook that ran through the clearing while Saria pulled Link into a little huddle.
"Link, where did he come from? I mean last time I checked he was just a doll that we had fun dressing up to look ridiculous. What happened to it?" Saria asked, her face full of wonder.
"I don't know, I just woke up and all of a sudden he was talking!" Link exclaimed. "I think he's the kind of person we've been hoping to meet. I think he came from outside of this- "
"Forest? Yes, I did." with yet another yelp, both children went tumbling backwards. "Ah, sorry about that. I have rather good hearing." he said apologetically. "But at least I know why I have fake eyelashes on now." he said, peeling them off.
"Yeah... sorry bout that." Link said, somewhat abashed. Suddenly he stopped moving, deep in thought. "You know Saria? Since me and you have already met Geno, there's one more we have to show him too.". Saria stopped, and then nodded in silent agreement.
"I'm sorry. Who is it you want me to meet?" Geno said with a slight inquiring look posed upon his wooden face.
"The third member of our little group." said Link with a smile. "He's a bit unusual, but he's a good guy." Link said firmly. "Come on Geno let's go meet Vaati."
The impressive mechanized utopia looked down on the planet of water. It was outlined with mechanical structures at every single point. This was a supposed perfect land, this was where the purifiers were created for their tasks, this was Elysium.
"Careful where you move that Number 43." said Servbot number 2. His small blue body waving his little arms in exasperation, and his large eyes strained with tension on his large rounded yellow head. "We need that part to help get the blue boy back home for Ms. Tron!".
Megaman stood there looking out at his home. His entire body was covered in blue armor, except his head which was covered in large spiky brown hair. Then he sighed, just how long had he been up here? How long had he been homesick? How long until he was free of playing Old Maid with Sera and Yuna!? "I wanna go home." he said in a pathetic moan. All Roll and Tron had been able to do so far was send a capsule big enough to get Data, and a couple of Servbots to them. Data, his little round hands coming off his small rounded body, patted Megaman on the shoulder. Megaman offered him a weak smile.
"Good news Megaman!" shouted Number 2. as he sprinted towards him, falling on his face "Oof! Well forget about that please because your pod is finished!" he exclaimed, face alight with joy.
Megaman's expression became awe-struck, then he broke out into a smile. "Well what are we waiting for? Come on hurry! I can't wait to get home! Woohooo!" and pumping his fist in the air, he ran off towards the docking bay.
"I have you now Captain Falcon!!" Samurai Goroh yelled, his eyes wide with sinister glee as he sped in his racer towards the lone figure. He pressed a switch and his already speeding racer began to double it's speed.
The figure stood there, waiting. His eyes could not be seen under the black visor of his red racing helmet, his tall muscular body covered in blue spandex, yellow gloves and boots as well. He drew his fist back, as the machine drew ever closer. He sucked in a large breath and threw his fist forward.
"Falcon Punch!!". His fist burst into flame, it took the form of a flaming bird, and crashed into Samurai Goroh's racer, utterly destroying it. However when the smoke cleared there was no Samurai Goroh in sight, he appeared to have already fled the scene.
Captain Falcon gave a smirk. Pressing a few buttons on his glove's cuff link, he jumped in to the air. "Falcon Flyer!" he shouted as his ride came about. It was shaped, as the name would suggest, much like a falcon. It was golden through the center with purple wings to the side. Powerful boosters lined the back of the vehicle, and two green eyes lay on the head of the majestic bird.
"Now let's go." he said, eyes full of spirit. "Let's go find where that mysterious light came from." and with the press of a button, he took off to search for his destiny.
Sky and ground had no difference in this land. Everything was the darkest of black, and you could not tell whether this realm went on forever, or ended right in front of you.
A dark figure ran through this blackness quite easily, as if he was used to this blackness. He moved in an unusual manner, a series of impish hops seemed to be his preferred way to move. His two round orange glowing eyes were all that you could make out of his form.
"I've found another piece!" he shouted in glee. "We know that there's another piece on the planet where they originally came from!" he cackled. "I swear... that planet seems almost like mine." he said, fear and sadness evident in his voice.
"Really?" said the deep voice of an unseen person. "I should've known that there might be another one there." he said with a chuckle. "This is perfect. That person is there after all. His memories must be slowly coming back to him by now." contentment resounded in his voice. "Go speed up his memory process right away, and get me that shard!" he yelled, flinging an unusual mask at the small figure.
"What's this?" the small creature murmured, examining the colorful mask.
"Present." muttered the voice in an uncaring tone. "Put it on your face, it should be... fun." he said, with an unseen grin.
"Ooh! Thank you!" the small one yelled. Bouncing around in happiness, his new toy secured firmly over his face, he ran off. "Just wait a tiny bit, I'll do it just as you said!" and then he was out of sight. The owner of the dark voice stared for only a second before smiling, a smile that could chill blood.
"So this is where he lives?" Geno asked in a curious voice, staring at the dark, dead looking stump.
"Yep, for some reason he took a liking to this stump. Beats me, I don't know why he chose it either." Link said in an exasperated tone.
"You mean he hasn't always lived there?" Geno inquired.
"I don't think so." Saria said in an unsure voice. "Link, Vaati, and I can't seem to remember when we came to this forest, it just seemed as if we all came here differently, but none of us remembers exactly how."
"Don't worry about it Saria." Link said while grabbing her hand, giving it a comforting squeeze. "We'll find out just who we are one day, I'm sure of it. Now let's go." giving Saria a smile, he led her inside the large stump. Geno stayed back, a look of pondering clear on his face. Realizing that he had been left behind, he hurried after the other two.
"Are you here Vaati? We brought company." Link said in a loud voice. The house was very bare. There were a few plates neatly arranged in a corner, a sword that looked to be in pristine condition, and a couple of books that had been left by wanderers long ago. Atop a wooden stump sat a pale-skinned boy. He was about the same height as Link. He had large red eyes, and odd black markings just them. He wore a blue tunic along with a cloak of a deeper shade. On his head sat a cap, a ruby lined with gold was sown into the hat, and he had a similar ruby on his belt buckle.
"Oh hello you two." he spoke in a polite tone. "Who's your guest? Isn't he that doll that you found?" he said, looking at Geno. Geno stared for a second, before snapping out of his trance, and shaking Vaati's hand.
"I'm Geno, pleased to meet you Mr. Vaati. In a way of speaking, I suppose I am that puppet." he said in a polite voice, yet his attention was focused directly on Vaati's face. "Forgive me for entering your home unannounced." Geno said, finally breaking eye contact.
"Oh not at all, those two do it all the time, and simply calling me Vaati is fine." he said, staring closely at Geno too. "I'm very sorry all of you, but I was hoping to catch a little rest. After that I would be very happy to talk with you." he said apologetically.
"Really? At this hour?" Link said surprisedly. "Well I guess if you really need it. We'll catch up with you later big V." Link said in a joking tone. Geno, Saria, and Link exchanged goodbyes with Vaati and left the little house.
"Sorry about that Geno, Vaati didn't used to be like this, lately he seems to stick to himself more." Saria said in a sad tone. The three of them talked about the village and themselves a for a while. Geno visited all around the town, met the Kokiri(Who's caution towards things different from themselves perturbed him a bit), and even found some amusement in the so called "Know-it-all Brothers". Finally the three sat upon a stump and Geno spoke up.
"All right. I suppose it's about time that I explained exactly what's going on." The two nodded their heads, almost fiercely. "You see I am a celestial warrior from a place called Star Ro-"
BOOM!!
A crash stole everyone's attention away. They all stared at a large dark sphere that had landed in the center of the village. Geno fished inside his small cloak, he quickly pulled out a small wooden wand and pointed it at the sphere.
"Everyone, get something to defend yourselves with!" he bellowed. Link, Saria, and all the Kokiri just stared at him blankly. "Trust me, hurry!". Link was the first to run off, emerging from his house with his wooden sword and a pot lid as a crude shield. Saria, and the rest of the Kokiri followed suit, grabbing sticks and slingshots.
Suddenly the black sphere shot out small wisps of darkness. These gathered together and began to swirl violently. As the swirling stopped, several dark shadowy creatures emerged from the vortex. They were pitch black, except for their white staring eyes. Rattling gasps shook their whole diaphragm. They seemed to gaze at everyone in the clearing, deciding what to do next. Then, they began to slowly move forward.
"Alright! Time to go home" Megaman cheered as he climbed into the pod. A large grin lit up his face as he secured the seat belt and closed the hatch. His whole body trembled with excitement.
"This pod should take you straight back somewhere on your planet, don't worry about hitting water, this pod can float." came the voice of Yuna from the built-in communicator. "Sera and I will come down shortly after, now that we have a working design it won't take long to build a few more. Good luck on your trip Trigger."
"Yeah... good luck I guess." came the slightly rude voice of Sera. "We'll see you soon Trigger."
"Of course! Well, I'm off!" he said with a grin. Pulling a small lever, the pod detached from the docking bay, and began to drift towards the planet. After the pod cleared Elysium, Megaman reached out and pressed the booster button, as he had been told to in the briefing.
Fwoosh!
"Aghhh! It's way to strong, I'm veering off waughh!!" Megaman shouted, the pod swerving to the left.
"Number 43! The left booster was your part of the job! What did you do? What kind of refractor did you put in?" shouted Number 2.
"Well... I couldn't find the refractor we needed. So I put in this golden shard that hit me in the head while I was in the residential area."
"You idiot! Now Miss Tron's gonna get really mad, we're all going to be doing double time in the punishment room!"
"Ohhh Nooo!" All the Servbots shouted, spinning in circles.
"Trigger! You missed the planet entirely" shouted Yuna over the communicator. "You're heading for an unknown planet! We're fshhh -sing fshhhhhh -nication fshhhhhhhhhh." the comm. went flat.
"Another planet!?" shouted Megaman. "When will I ever get a breaaak!?" he yelled as he spiraled off towards a familiar looking planet.
Link narrowly ducked under the creature's swipe. Bringing himself into a crouching position, he flung his shield into the creature's face and leapt upon him. Bringing the wooden sword down with a mighty yell, he hit the creature in the head, and it dissolved and disappeared.
"Did you see that Geno? I got one! I got o-".
Fweem! "What was that Link?!" Geno yelled, blasting three of the creatures with a beam of light from his wand, while punching another in the stomach.
"Umm... Nevermind!" Link shouted, determinedly diving back into the fray. The shadows were almost gone. The Kokiri may not have been warriors, but they knew how to fire a slingshot and swing a stick better than anybody. Finally the last shadow was destroyed, as he faded away the Kokiri breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hey that's no fun!" a voice cackled. Emerging from behind the woods came an impish figure. He wore ragged clothing, including a patched up hat, that made him look like a scarecrow. However, on his face a terrifying mask with large orange staring eyes peered at them. This mask was painted an assortment of colors and didn't seem to follow a specific pattern. On the edges many spikes jutted out of the side. "You defeated all my friends." he said sadly. "Did you pick on them just because they looked scary?" he was beginning to sound angry, fists tightly clenched at his sides.
"Doesn't he look like a Skull Kid?" Saria whispered to Link who quickly nodded. The masked figure now violently shook with anger.
"Of course that's why you did it!" he said, fury in his voice. "That's what everyone does! All you people are the same! Everyone hates people who are different!" he began to float into the air. "I'll destroy all of you!" he shouted. His mask began to glow a blood red hue.
"That mask, it has such incredible power!" Geno yelled, fear in his voice. "He's going to destroy the whole forest!". The glow grew ever brighter, and the boy threw his hands into the air. Everyone braced themselves as he brought his hands back down.
Ping!!
The boy was sent flying into the ground by a speeding object. This foreign capsule imbedded itself in the ground a few feet away from the masked child, who was experiencing severe whiplash. Everyone got back into battle positions as the door on the capsule opened. Slowly a leg covered in blue armor emerged from the capsule, then the figure stepped out entirely. He was taller than just about everybody in this village, his entire body was covered in blue plating except his face and a few locks of brown hair. Everyone's awe quickly turned to somewhat disappointment as the figure took a few dizzy steps, before falling flat on his face.
"Oof! I sure hope no one saw that." Megaman muttered as he propped himself up. "Dammit." he murmured, seeing that everyone did. He took one good look around. There were many little children who looked like elves staring at him. There was a puppet dressed in blue, pointing a stick at him. A child in a mask was trying not to cry as he covered his head. Megaman, being a quick thinker and lingual genius, quickly thought of what to say.
"So... did I um.. miss something?"
Friends are something invaluable.
Willing to help you in your times of need.
Willing to fight for you even when you can't.
Sharing the inner confines of their heart with you.
But there is something you must always remember.
The first impression is very important.
I felt like a slightly more humorous poem this time.(Still crappy though)
Well, do you like how this is going so far? I'm trying to keep all the characters in their personalities, but awkward and humorous situations always happen no matter what. I hope the character of Geno is likable enough to those of you who have played SMRPG. Link's personality is hard, but he always struck me as a nice yet simple guy. Captain Falcon, now boy is he hard to right. In the anime he was a quiet character, yet in Brawl he seemed more gutsy. So I decided that he is a man who prefers to talk with action, yet is a kind and brave soul.
I only got one review but I expected something like that. I'm a new writer, game x-overs isn't the most popular section, and this hasn't even been up a day, so I'm staying positive. Plus I wrote this for myself, and the fans, so if I don't get too many reviews, I'm ok with it.
Who do you want to have some info about in the next chapter? I will continue with Link's story, but do you want some more CF? Sonic? Ness? Mr. Blue Hair(actually 2 characters), or do you wanna suggest one of the characters I haven't introduced yet? Well, I hope to hear some input from you guys. So please read, offer helpful criticism, and let's continue this journey.
