Author's Notes- I am personally loving this story. Meta Knight and Jigglypuff is a strange couple, I admit; however, it comes with so many possibilities. Whoever likes this couple, I can see why. Very cute and romantic, yes. For people who are kind of shaky about this couple, thank you for sticking with me. I see Meta Knight as a tough and valiant knight, not the kind to fall for Jigglypuff. Point is, I myself am a little out of my comfort zone. The good news is, I'm warming up to the idea. Romance… it is unpredictable and worth everything. No matter who the romance is with, it doesn't matter; it is the love that matters. You know what; I will now stop talking and continue with this story. Jigglypuff still hasn't told Meta Knight where she is taking him. Let us find out, shall we?

What Am I Doing Wrong?

Peach, Samus, and Zelda walk out of a room. They all have worried faces.

"If Jigglypuff isn't in the mansion, then where is she?" Peach asks. Her eyes look a little teary.

Samus tightens her grip on the doorknob. She finally releases it and says, "Something is defiantly wrong."

"Jigglypuff hasn't told us where she is going?" Zelda asks, knowing how much Samus likes to know those kinds of things.

"You two haven't noticed Jigglypuff's strange behavior?" Samus asks in a threatening way.

Both Peach and Zelda nod; Peach a little more enthusiastically than Zelda.

"I bet Jigglypuff's strange disappearance has to do with her recent behavior." Samus explains.

Zelda lifts an eyebrow at Samus. Is she really thinking what Zelda is thinking? The way to know is to ask: "So, you aren't planning to investigate, are you?"

"You guessed it. All I need is a team." Samus explains. "What do you say?"

"If you are forcing me, then I'd prefer to stay here. I don't do fieldwork." Zelda says.

"Fieldwork sounds like so much fun! I'd love to!" Peach exclaims with enthusiasm. That is what Samus likes about Peach; she is willing to do anything with such joy. Samus doesn't get why Mario has a crush on the peachy princess, but maybe he is just as naïve as Peach. Who knows? Well, best not to think about it.

"Well, if you two really want to get caught spying on our friend, then go ahead. If Jigglypuff does find out, what will she think?" Zelda is concerned about the spying on Jigglypuff. What if Jigglypuff gets really emotional about it? Samus doesn't understand how sensitive Jigglypuff really is. Zelda has two saddest moments; seeing Jigglypuff cry for the first time, and when Midna left Hyrule to return to her homeland. OH… wait… never mind. Just one. Forget Midna. She could've taken Link. If she did, Zelda would've killed her. Killed her!

"Alright Peach, let's go to my room and suit up." After that, Samus does a summersault to the edge of the hall, stands, holds out her hand like a gun, and slowly walks down the hall sideways.

"OOO! I just love spy movies! Wait for me!" That is when Peach tries to do a summersault, but epically fails when she instead falls on her side and rolls like a green bean. She clumsily gets up and clomps down away with her shoes. She notices her hair. "MY HAIR! NO!"

Zelda isn't smiling. She is just annoyed at Samus.

Meanwhile, two creatures walk through the thick bushes of a forest near the mansion. The creatures are a little pink Pokémon, followed by a chivalrous blue knight, who is only about eight inches tall. Jigglypuff moves a branch and walks onto a cleared area. "Here we are."

Meta Knight walks into the light, which is able to hit the ground because of no trees in a small square area. He sees all the luscious plants. However, the most gorgeous sight is the sight of Jigglypuff, standing right in the middle of the cleared area. She stands at such a distance, that a large flower bush behind her acts as a background. Her eyes gleam in the light, and the light blue flowers behind her emphasize her eye color. Her smile complements it, like peanut butter complements the taste of jelly. (For you people who don't like peanut butter and jelly, well, you know what I mean. Just don't use that simile.)

"Isn't this place great?" Jigglypuff asks her blue friend. Meta Knight is off in a different world. He didn't hear a word Jigglypuff said. Jigglypuff awaits the answer. Nothing. She gets annoyed. She puffs up with an ugly face; not quite a troll face, but close.

Meta Knight can only see Jigglypuff in slow motion. She slowly puffs up in anger. All Meta Knight can see is the cute Pokémon he once kissed near the electronics section of a super market. How relieved Meta Knight was that day; finally letting go off all that built up emotion for a woman. Now if he could only tell Samus how he feels about her. That won't go so well.

"Meta Knight!" Jigglypuff screams at the top of her lungs. Meta Knight is broken from his trance. Jigglypuff looks angry. Was it something he said?

"What? I'm sorry. Say again." Meta Knight tries to reply politely, without showing any signs of embarrassment.

"I asked if you thought this place was great. Are you ok?" Jigglypuff asks with concern.

"I am fine, thank you. This place is very beautiful." Meta Knight replies; this time receiving the question. Jigglypuff couldn't help but notice he said the place was beautiful, but he was looking at her the entire time. Was he referring to her, or the place? She'd prefer the first choice.

Meta Knight remembers what they originally came for. "Hey, want that battle now?"

Jigglypuff's fantasy is ruined. Of course the guy just wants to do a manly thing. What is it with guys and avoiding romance? Well, it looks like Jigglypuff will have to go with what she said instead of what she hoped. The original purpose of picking such a beautiful place was to set the mood for romance, but alas, you trick a guy there by saying that you want to battle, and romance is the last thing a guy thinks about. Well, no avoid the battle now. Jigglypuff is ready. "On your signal."

With that, the two run to opposite sides of the square. Meta Knight notices the lines in the grass.

When both smashers are on opposite sides standing at the lines, Meta Knight decides to ask his question; "Hey Jigglypuff, what are these lines? Did you put them here?"

"Nope. This used to be a tennis court, but over time, the court was abandoned. Vegetation grew around it, making it secluded from the world." Jigglypuff explains, like she was from the place.

"How do you know?" Meta Knight asks, just curious to hear, and not because he thinks she is lying.

"I saw a tennis ball here when I first came. It was by a decaying billboard that said this was a tennis court. I have no idea what happened to the billboard, but I still have the tennis ball in my room." Jigglypuff explains. "Why? Do you think I am lying?"

"Jigglypuff, if I had thought you were lying, I would've used an intimidating tone in my voice. I was just curious, considering the facts you already gave me. I will yell 'go' after a countdown for the battle." Meta Knight explains, changing the subject on the last sentence.

The countdown starts. Jigglypuff gets ready. "3-2-1- Go." The two are off.

Meanwhile, in the forest, Olimar gathers pikmin, and whatever else he can find. He has already found a small rock in the shape of Ike's head; three purple pikmin who were all fighting over an old, moldy cookie; and Ness's old toothbrush that flew out the window in a fight in the bathroom about a week ago. He didn't collect that last item.

Olimar stops at the sight of something. He sees paper stuck on a branch. He takes the paper, curious to what it says. It does have words, but not the kind he expected. It looks like an entry from a diary or journal. Olimar can't identify who wrote it, when it was written, or anybody mentioned in it. No particular names are given; just 'I' and 'she'. It did say something about the electronics section of a store near a bargain bin though. He decides to keep it.

Just then, sounds of clashing bodies and metal slices are heard. Olimar follows the sound. He moves a branch just below his face so he can see. Two smashers he recognizes brawl. Jigglypuff, the balloon Pokémon; and Meta Knight, the blue Star Warrior, battle in the middle of the forest in a strangely cleared area. Now Olimar's curiosity is perked. He whispers, "What in the pik pik carrots."

The three purple pikmin Olimar had made follow him plan something in secrecy. The next thing Olimar knows, he is being lifted by his purple pikmin. He is tossed into the brawl area. Lucky for Olimar, he is able to quickly stand. One of the purple pikmin runs out to him.

Jigglypuff almost bashes into Olimar as she rolls at high speed on the ground; however, Olimar is too quick. He jumps over the pink Pokémon. Meta Knight charges at Olimar with his sword, but Olimar deflects him using his purple pikmin; a new move that he has never used in battle. Meta Knight stops charging and teleports to the front of Olimar. The two start to sword fight, but since Olimar doesn't have a sword, he uses his purple pikmin. At a still point, Jigglypuff jumps in between the two and tries to hit the two with her feet. Both guys jump back to avoid her.

Meta Knight stops sliding in the grass. He realizes something crucial. "Stop!" Jigglypuff, about to punch Olimar's gut; and Olimar, about to smack Jigglypuff in the head with his purple pikmin, halt in response to Meta Knight's exclamation.

"How many fighters are fighting?" Meta Knight asks, even though the answer is pretty obvious.

"UH… three." Olimar responds.

"Let me rephrase that; how many fighters started the battle?" Meta Knight rewords his question so the answer he is really looking for is given.

Jigglypuff now follows Meta Knight. They were having a battle... just them. Now Olimar is in the battle. Where does he fit into all of this? They started with just her and Meta Knight; now Olimar is there to. "UH… Hi Olimar."

After returning to a normal standing position, Olimar waves as if to say 'hi' back. The purple pikmin runs off into the forest.

"Olimar, why are you here?" Meta Knight asks in an irritated tone.

Olimar is more than happy to explain. "Well, this is what happened," And with that, the whole story was told. Everything from finding a rock the shape of Ike's head, to the mutiny of the pikmin was told. Just the last part about the mutiny answered Meta Knight's question.

"Well then. That's settled, so…" Jigglypuff isn't quite sure what to do. Her practice battle with her crush was interrupted by a Hocotatian with revolting pikmin. That is a strange set of circumstances. This is the first, and probably the only time that will happen.

"Shall we continue to battle?" Olimar asks, getting ready to quickly pluck a pikmin out of the ground to battle with.

Meta Knight walks up to the astronaut from another planet. "I think I have a better idea."

The next thing Jigglypuff sees is the best kick probably ever made by a being the size of her, and one less fighter in her secret, abandon tennis court. Once again, it is just her and her crush, the blue, valiant, and surprisingly good kicker, Meta Knight.

Meta Knight turns towards his secret crush. "What shall we do now?"

Jigglypuff can hear her stomach growling. Meta Knight hears it too.

"I guess we can go get some lunch." Jigglypuff knows what that growling stomach means. It can only mean that it is lunchtime in the mansion, her favorite time of day.

"In that case, we shall return to the mansion. Excellent idea, Miss Jigglypuff." And with that said, Meta Knight turns around and walks back into the forest.

Jigglypuff loves the sophistication shown by Meta Knight, but sometimes, she just wishes Meta Knight would let that go. She wishes he would just show the immature side of every guy. Maybe then he wouldn't just ignore the love. Meta Knight loves her, but why won't he show it? Has he lost that love for her? Are they just… friends? Is Jigglypuff not girly enough, or not outgoing enough? Jigglypuff thinks 'What am I doing wrong?'

Author's Notes- How was that for a battle field? An abandon, secluded, beautiful tennis court out in the forest. It was koryandrs idea for a tennis court, so I want to thank her for that. I just added the adjectives. Now tell me, who doesn't like Olimar in this story? If you don't, I don't know what your problem is. I find him perfectly likable in this story. Those of you who have seen the old Kirby anime know what I'm talking about when Meta Knight can kick. That is personally one of my favorite episodes. Anyway, if you have questions or suggestions, PM me or say them in your reviews. I will be sure to answer questions. That is, unless it will be revealed in the story. MWAHAHA!
