Some Friendly Revenge
It was dinner time in the mess hall and the tables were crowded around with jostling talking warriors and the room was filled with a loud hum of conversation and clattering plates and silverware. Zelda sat at the table that was furthest away from the noise and bustle of the dining hall in the quietest possible area. The other warriors who were not partial to loud noises sat with her and they formed a quiet group. Zelda was watching Ike's face intently he seemed to have a mischievous gleam in his eyes and an odd smirk on his face. She was surprised when he stood up and announced.
"Excuse me everyone, may I have your attention?" All eyes at their quiet table turned to him. "There is something that I have to do."
Zelda watched open mouthed as the normally quiet and reserved Ike cleared a space on the table and then stood up on it and started dancing in a most ridiculous manner. He was grinning madly and dancing like a deranged disco dancer. With difficulty Zelda stifled a laugh and looked over at Link to see what he made of this. A wide variety of emotions crossed Link's face. It went from horror to embarrassment to anger and back again in a matter of seconds. Every one at there table was laughing hysterically and their laughter only increased when a flustered Link grabbed Ike by his coat tailed tunic and yanked him of the table and into his seat.
The real Ike glared darkly at Link. He knew that this was payback for the grappling hook incident but in his opinion Link had gone too far. In normal incidences Link would have been way to shy to do something like that. Ike himself would never do such a thing. Link would pay big time for this and after a few seconds of brainstorming he knew what to do. After his plan was made he was able to join in the laughter at the table.
The next morning Ike told Link to meet him in the south hallway at noon before running off in a mysterious manner leaving Link's hat behind in his haste. Intrigued Link shouldered Ike's sword and headed for the south hallway after lunch. Zelda met up with him before he reached his destination and started to walk with him.
"Have you seen Link?" she asked, "I have not seen him all morning. There was something important I wanted to discuss with him."
Link keeping up his disguise replied in Ike's blunt manner, "he told me to meet him in the south hall at noon, you can come with me if you like."
Once they reached the south hallway both of them stopped to gape and Ike's face flushed the deepest shade of red Zelda had ever seen, Zelda herself was surprised and a little angry at what she saw. There in front of them stood Link and Samus.
The real Ike had it in his mind to make an extreme fool out of Link so he had sought out Samus. Since he was Link's body the scheme would work perfectly. Once he noted that Link had arrived and better yet Zelda too, he began. Link would be humiliated. He dramatically flicked Link's ashy blond hair out of his eyes before he launched into free verse poetry that had taken him all night to write.
"Samus," he said in his most flirtatious tone, "there is something I have always wanted to tell you. I have tried so hard, but I can no longer ignore my heart. I can no longer ignore my true feelings. The truth is that I absolutely adore you. You are my sun lit sky, without you my day would lose all its brightness. Without the sight of your beautiful face my life would be as the darkest night where the stars and moon shed no light. Your beauty makes even the most gorgeous flower seem small and petty in comparison. My heart yearns for you." Ike savored the look of horror embarrassment and anger that his body's face wore before he continued. He took Samus' hand and kissed it lightly as he knelt before her. "Please grant me the highest honor that could ever be bestowed upon me and be my lady love," Ike said as he smiled in what he hoped was an alluring manner and raised his eyebrows up and down.
He was unable to go any further for the real Link let out a maddened battle cry. Ike turned just in time to see his body charging at him like a juggernaut at full speed eyes glittering with fury.
Ike found himself knocked to the ground and Link hurled himself down on Ike and the two started grappling with each other.
"Link," Ike said as he wrestled with him, grunting slightly, "you do realize your attacking yourself don't you?"
"I don't care as long as I can cause you some pain," Link yelled back angrily.
Samus shook herself out of the startled stupor she had been in and started to laugh. Zelda started to chuckle as well.
"Stop it you two," Zelda commanded, and Link and Ike froze mid swing. "Link," she said smiling broadly, "who put you up to that. Whoever you were playing truth or dare with has a cruel yet hilarious sense of humor."
"It was Peach, wasn't it?" Samus asked between laughs. "I have to admit you had me going for a moment, and Ike I didn't know you cared about me so much it's really sweet."
Then she and Zelda left the hall together laughing. Ike and Link glared at each other for a few moments after Samus and Zelda's departure before they burst out laughing as well.
"Truce?" Link asked holding out his hand and Ike accepted.
"Very sneaky Ike," Link chuckled, "making me punch myself in the face, it was an awesome prank."
Ike smiled back and the two went out to go train.
Please review and tell me what you think. It will fill my heart with rainbows!
