The Bounty Hunter and the Mercenary
Chapter 4- "Purrfect" Problems Part 1
Ike was just in his bed, under the covers. He dreamed about chicken and such until blaring meows of what sounds like a cat, annoyed his ears. He growled and huffed as he slowly got up.
"Okay, Samus. Just a couple days ago, you screamed in terror. Now you're meowing," he muttered under his breath as he walked over to her bed. He grabbed on her bedcovers. "So, what's wrong now-…Oh lord." he said with wide eyes after he pulled up the covers.
"Yes?" Zelda said as she answered the door. In front of her is Link. "Link! Do you need anything?" she asked him. Link blushed a little bit. He scratched the back of his head.
"Well, no. It's more like Ike needs you. Something happened to Samus, but he won't tell me what's up." the elf informed her and he continued on before she could speak. "He also thinks that your potion from the other day caused the problem to whatever happened to Samus."
"Okay, then. Let's go," she replied seriously and they left. They arrived to the dining area. The rest of the group were there. Ike, Marth, Pit, Pikachu, Peach and Kirby (for some reason) were there at the thick round table. The only one missing was Samus. The two fighters strolled over to everyone. Everyone stopped in mid conversation and gazed at them.
"I heard someone needed me," Zelda said politely. Ike nodded and everyone turned their heads.
"Big time. Also before I get Samus up here, what was in that stuff or that potion?" he asked.
"Well, magic obviously. It had the energy and power to physically or mentally change you to be stronger or smarter without causing any damage to your body mentally or physically," she told him scientifically.
"Oh… Well, that didn't really happen to Samus," Ike mumbled loudly as he bend down. He grabbed what looks to be a covered box and placed it on the table. "She turned to be… Kind of the opposite. Smaller, weaker, and confused," he said and ripped the blanket off. "As you can see…" he trailed off. There was… nothing, but a small silver cage.
"I don't see Samus," Pit replied the obvious. The other nodded. Ike frantically looked around.
"I swear! She was in here and I locked it too!" he exclaimed and stood up. "She had better not ran outside," he said worryingly, looking out the window. Peach's eyes gleamed a little.
"I'm slightly surprised," she started. "Don't you both hate each other or something?" she asked. Ike shrugged.
"Hate is a bit of a stretch, Peach. We just are very competitive against each other and that's why we argue and fight," he replied.
"So, you don't hate each other or fight or anything?" she asked again.
"Pfft, of course! Just a bit of a misunderstanding, but you know… Sometimes we just like to get under each other's skin," he told her. Peach just smiled back. "Okay, everyone! We must search for Samus!" Ike yelled out.
"Ike, we don't even know what she looks like," Marth reminded him. The smasher stood still in space.
"You'll know if it's Samus when you see her and don't tell MH anything," Ike told them and dash off to the living room. Everyone shrugged and/or sighed unless you're Kirby who just stood there, looking around.
Ike went to the arcade. Link went outside around the mansion. Pit went to the pools and hot tub. Peach checked the kitchen. Zelda searched in the theater or the movie room. Marth went to the supplies/collection room. Kirby and Pikachu just wandered around in the halls of Smash Manor.
"Damn it! Samus, where are you?" Ike muttered after he looked around the whole arcade from any tiny spot. "Why am I so worried and stressed?" he said sternly. He was ready to explode.
"Maybe because you love her?" a hazy voice suddenly said. This triggered Ike jump into smash mode and stay alarmed.
"Who goes there?" he asked aloud, turned around in different angles and directions.
"No need to panic, Ike. It's just me, Lucario," the aura pokemon whispered like a quiet echo. The fire-like aura appeared from the darkness and stepped out of the shadows. It was Lucario.
"Good to see you back," Ike greeted him. Lucario's eyes glowed in the dark like fireflies in tight oval packs. He nodded. "Also how long were you standing there?"
"Well, good to see you too," he greeted back in almost no emotion. "And I've been standing here long enough to hear your feelings about Samus," he replied back. Ike sighed.
"Hate to tell ya, but I don't- make that bold please! I don't like Samus! Also much better," he said while also talking to the author.(this is my story, Ike!) "We're just allies or friendly rivals," he told the pokemon.
"Really? Is that what your heart said too?" Lucario asked. Ike's eyebrows furrowed. He looked down as he placed a hand over where his heart is.
"My heart? What do you-" he started to ask Lucario, but he too was gone. "Mean…? …Don't tell MH, Lucario!" Ike yelled as he walked towards exit of the arcade. "I must be going crazy…" he muttered and went back to the dining room.
Link's body shook as he walked around the towering mansion. In Link's opinion, the mansion is far too big for everyone and the rest of the seven veterans agreed except for Kirby who can't really communicate well. Still Master Hand insisted on it for the newcomers and for the suggested ideas from last year.
"We should build some kind of barrier to keep us warm during the winter," Link muttered with chattering teeth.
The snow was just beneath his waist or around three feet, making it even harder and longer for him to travel around the manor. Already his fingers were shaking and more snow started to fall for the third time that week! Link shoved his fingers in his pocket, pulled his hat down and continued to look for Samus.
"Samus!" Pit called out in the pools, hot tubs and springs. They were mostly empty except Mario and Luigi were in the male hot tub room. The two brothers turned to see the angel peeking in. Pit saw them and asked, "Have you guys seen Samus? The others and I are looking for her because Zelda gave her some potion that change her to something," he explained quickly. "And don't tell MH, please," he plead them. The two plumbers nodded.
"We won't say a word. Also we haven't a seen her a anywhere. Sorry," Mario told him.
"But we will a tell you if we a do!" Luigi assured. Pit smiled, nodded and thanked them. Then he left. "Do you a think they will a find Samus, a Mario?" Luigi asked him a bit concerned. Mario nodded.
"I'm a pretty sure. They should a find her a soon, if she is a in the a mansion," he replied.
Peach was opening dresser by dresser and shelf by shelf in the kitchen for Samus. So, Ike and Samus, huh? She thought and smiled a little. She opened the refrigerator.
"We need more egg and turnips," she mumbled, out of topic. "Well, at least we have some kind of food for tonight," she sighed, gazing at the meat and leftover food from Thanksgiving. "We should probably throw this away too," she added and grabbed the old food. She closed the fridge and threw it in the trash. She skimmed and patted her hands together proudly.
"Okay, next we- wait, Samus! I forgot!" she remembered and went back hastily searching. Then a lightbulb appeared on her head. She grabbed a pan, placed it on the gas stove, and started it up. Then she went to the fridge and pantry to prepare for something.
Zelda would've been walking in the dark blindly, if King Dedede's troops or waddle dees forgotten about fixing the lights in the theater. She sighed with relief when the bright lights flashed to life and she started walked around. The cherry, red chairs were in their respective rows and three columns. The floors were the same dark, boring, grey carpets. The theater screen was five times bigger than the tv in the living room.
So, Zelda started walking up and down, left and right, around each chair. When she found nothing, she walked up to the back where Crazy Hand would start the video and stop it on purpose to annoy the smashers. His weird, annoying, but fun jokes and habits he has. I wonder who left the door unlocked, Zelda sarcastically thought as she entered into the room freely. Nothing much was in there, but a projector, a drawer, a couple of computers, couple of chairs, and a couple of tables.
The Princess of Hyrule frown in disappointment. Maybe… Maybe Samus didn't arrive yet. Very possible, she agreed. So, she magically did a dance while a purple and white light surround her. After finishing, she was a sheika, the very last one. Most call her just Sheik which just simply sounds better.
The sheika jumped and crawled on the walls like a fleeing bug. Then at one point, she hanged from the ceiling upside down very similar to a cocoon. Then she remained there for quite sometime until she was satisfied that Samus won't come.
Marth went to the supplies/collection room because… because? He sighed irritatedly at the author's attempted to explain why he was at the supplies/collection room. He cleared his throat with a cough.
"It has more items and it's more isolated and distant from everyone else. I assume that Samus would want to be away from everyone which would explain the reason why she escaped from Ike's cage," he explained. Sure, let's go with that.
Marth walked through the trophy room and scanned around. Carefully pushing other trophies, he looked closer. No luck. Next room was the room that had all the items except for smash balls or smash orbs. He walked through some cuckoos in a cage, a few boxes, a few sandbags, some pokeballs, but no Samus. His expression change from remembering Samus. Why didn't Ike tell us what Samus looked like? We could ask others if they knew where she was, Marth thought, but the more he thinks about it. He does remember that Ike told them to not tell Master Hand. Maybe he didn't want others to know because he doesn't want to be reported to Master Hand, Marth assumed.
The prince continued to search in the rest of the rooms. Eventually he gave up before the last one. Slowly and tiredly, he progressed back to the dining room.
Pikachu ran from hall to hall while Kirby tried to keep up with the mouse for some reason. Occasionally the electric mouse would slow down or stop for Kirby. They roamed the first floor of the mansion and went up the stairs to the second. At the top of the stairs, he waited for Kirby.
"Pikachu!" the pokemon called for Kirby to hurry. The pink blob arrived and darted out to the second floor. "Pika pika chu," Pikachu commanded to Kirby who nodded in understanding before they searched. They spit up and explored the second floor.
As Kirby zoomed in random directions left and right, he heard the sound of meows. Kind of unhappy, glum and forlorn. Kirby halted and looked around. He was at an intersecting area. Kirby looked left and right. The right side was very silent. The left side had the sound of depressed murmurs. The adorable pink ball raced to his left and continued on. He passed an elevator and still bolted down the hall.
Kirby slowed down to a stop at the end of the hall. There was a yellow and light tan colored cat with big blue eyes, sitting next to a door. Her yellow mustard ears laid back. It took a while for the cat to realized that Kirby was in front of it. The animal stood up. It was taller by a half of a foot and much leaner than Kirby. It's paws were a bit small, but had very sharp claws equipped on them. It's long tail twitch and moved like a snake.
"Poyo?" Kirby said questioningly. The cat's ears rose slowly and it tilt it's head. In the distance, Pikachu was sprinting over to them. Like before, the cat's ears lower and it started to hiss warningly. In mere seconds, Pikachu arrived, panting heavily.
"Pika Pikachu-…pika," the pokemon said, sounding almost speechless. Kirby didn't pay any attention to what Pikachu was saying. Instead he walked up to the cat and somehow talked to it. They spoke for a moment until the cat seemed to finally smile, relieved.
"Meow?" it asked. Pikachu shook out of his unconsciousness and realized that the cat spoke to him. It's voice was melodic and soft, but had some kind of force in it. Serious, tough and aggressive force. What it asked for? Food, of course. It was hungry. Pikachu turned around and looked back.
"Pika Pi!" he told them with a wave of one arm. They scurried away, out of the empty hall.
Thoughts were racing in Ike's head. What happened? Where's Samus? How did she just disappear? What will happen to her? He didn't bother to answer those questions especially the last. It gave him a bad scared feeling.
"Where could Samus be?" Pit asked out loud. Sheik shrugged.
"Peach is also not here," Marth pointed out.
"She's in the kitchen. Making something she told me," Link informed them. Then a cheery Peach burst into the dining with a plate of cut up, cooked meat in one hand.
"I did it!" she announce excitedly. Ike looked up to her.
"Uh, Peach… You just cooked some meat," Link pointed out. Ike's eyes widen.
"You're a genius, Peach! Why didn't I think of that?" he questioned himself. Marth's eyebrows lowered.
"You never considered if Samus was hungry?" he asked. Ike nervously chuckled.
"Well, I was just so overwhelmed with Samus's new look that I only brushed my teeth, got my clothes on and left with her," he told them. A sweatdrop rolled down all their faces, but Ike's.
"So, how you sure that Samus will come for meat? We don't know what she looks like," Marth repeated.
"I might as well tell you what she looks like. You see she's a-" Ike was about to reveal, but Kirby suddenly jumped onto the table. "Woah!" the mercenary shouted. This shocked everybody and even more when Pikachu jumped aboard. "Where did you guys come from?" Ike asked.
"Pikachu pika pi," the mouse said while pointing down at the table. Ike looked confused, but looked under the table any way. The others heard him gasp.
"Well, what do we have here? Hey! Don't bite me! Gods…." he said and finally rose from the table. In his hand was the very same cat, the yellow one. It's ears were laid back and it's face was in a watchful state. Ike quickly released the cat from his hands before it could attack.
Everyone was astonished, even Sheik changed form back to Zelda. They all gasped at seeing her new kitty look. Link started to laugh and Marth look at him, amazed too. Peach and Zelda smiled and giggled a bit.
"I can't believe it," Pit said in awe. "This is really Samus?" he asked. Ike nodded.
"One hundred percent. When I woke up this morning, there were meows coming from Samus's bed. I got up, walked over, and pulled the covers. Her normal pajamas were there, but there was Samus as a cat!" he told them. Link wiped a tear out of his eye.
"This is incredible! I will never, ever be able to take Samus seriously ever again," Link laughed. Marth just sighed and shook his head.
"Well, I think Samus is really adorable!" Zelda commented. Peach agreed and smiled. Samus (who is the yellow cat) spotted the plate of cooked meat. She walked over and nearly left off the table. Then she sat down.
"Meow~," she said cutely. Peach almost squealed from how charming Samus act. She placed the plate of food on the table and Samus pounced on it. Then everyone started talking about Samus.
Ike just stared as Samus happily finish the food. He reached over to grabbed a piece and took one. Samus saw this and clearly wasn't pleased. As Ike was about to eat it, her ears lowered and she bit on the food. At first, he paused and watched the cat tugging on the piece of food. He could help, but smirk at her. He ripped the piece in half and gave that part to her. Samus was still slightly irritated, but walked away with her piece.
"Ike… That was surprisingly nice of you," Marth commented in shock after he watched them. Ike shrugged.
"Really? Well, you know what they say, sharing is caring," he say out loud. Marth blinked a bit. Before he could say anything, Ike added "I have to care for Samus now because she's a cat, but even just as a normal person, I still care a little," he finished. He glanced at Pikachu and Kirby.
"Hey, you two," he called to them. Pikachu and Kirby turned and looked at Ike.
"Pika?" Pikachu asked as he pointed to himself. Ike nodded.
"So, where did you find Samus?" he asked them. The mouse pointed out to the living room and straight up.
"Upstairs?" Marth asked. Pikachu nodded and had three fingers up.
"Third floor," Ike said. Then Kirby placed both hands down on the table and one stayed on the table while the other moved. They played the guessing game until Pit guessed it.
"Paper and pencil?" he asked. Pikachu and Kirby nodded. Zelda got the two items and gave it to them.
Then Pikachu sketched an area of halls of the second floor. Then he drew only one door with the number sixty next to it. Ike immediately realizes this including Marth. They drew the word "exit" and many question marks around it. It wasn't much, but it told Ike something once they drew a stick figure cat next to the door.
"So, let's start from the beginning," Link said. Everyone agreed.
"Okay, Samus ran away and escaped from the cage," Ike started. Then Kirby pointed to the door with the number sixty and the cat stick figure.
"Then she went back to your room, but she couldn't get in because she's a cat," Marth stated. Ike nodded.
"Not only that, but she couldn't reach the elevator button or find her way out as we don't use the stairs," he also added.
"So, why was she still waiting there?" Peach asked. Pikachu pointed at Ike.
"Me? She was waiting for me?" he asked in disbelief. The pokemon nodded. Samus looked to be frowning in shame with her back hunch over. Her eyes were sad, humiliated. "So, you do need me, right?" he asked, smirking. Samus nodded, not even looking at him. "What do you say?" he questioned. She nearly hissed, but instead walked over and placed a paw on his hand. He brought his left hand down and Samus purred on to it. No one said a word, not even Ike. He just went with the flow and pet Samus. Then a look flashed from Samus's eyes. "I know, Samus. No need to tell me twice," Ike said. Some more confused faces was from the group.
"Do you understand cats now?" Link asked. Ike shook his head.
"No, just when you know Samus a lot, she has these certain types of looks of warning. Usually I ignore them," he told them.
"Well, what did her looks say just now?" Peach asked.
"She just wanted to make sure that I won't get used to her kindness right now and that fact that she's a cat," he informed them. "Talking about her being a cat, could you recheck on what kind of spell you used and see if it ever wears off or can be cured in any way?" he asked Zelda. The princess nodded.
"I'll do that tomorrow. Just I can't believe this actually happened incorrectly," Zelda rambled on.
"Well, good thing that MH hasn't found out yet," Pit said, but he jinxed it.
"Found what out?" a strong, demanding voice said behind Ike. The others had unusual normal kind faces. Ike pulled Samus in and turned around to see Master Hand. The cat was trying to remain silent at Ike's back, but the position he held her was absolutely uncomfortable.
"Hey, Master Hand! What goin' on?" Ike greet him casually. Something stung him on his right hand. Ike almost flinched. Samus! What are doing?! he thought angrily.
"Just checking on the group. I see that everyone is here… Well, almost everyone," he corrected himself. "Ike, you're roommates with Samus. So, I'm curious, but where is she?" he asked.
"Oh, well. Samus has this classified work on her computer that she won't tell me about. Usually she works on it at night," Ike explained. MH just facepalmed and so, did Link.
"Ike, I'm not sure if you're aware, but Samus plays games on that computer and searches stuff. She doesn't work on it. She has another computer that she uses for work," Link explained to him. Ike sighed.
"Why don't people tell me these things?" Ike muttered.
"Maybe because you're idiotic," Marth mumbled.
"Marth, you're right next to me," Ike growled.
"I wanted to make sure that you're paying any attention," Marth said. Ike rolled his eyes and MH sighed.
"Ike, it's very clear that you have something behind you that you do not want to show me. May I see what you have?" Master Hand requested. Ike sighed.
"Fine, but it's not my fault," he said. MH nodded.
"I'm not asking who did it," he said. Ike gulped and carefully pulled Samus out. The poor thing was curled up in his hand and now sat up. It shook and looked at MH. "Well, this is… Interesting." he observed. "Well, Samus. What are we gonna do with you?"
"Meow," she replied.
"And you can't talk either. Bummer," Master Hand said. "Ike, I'll need you to take care of Samus for now," he told him. Ike nodded. Like I didn't know that, he thought.
"Sure. I think I can do that," he replied.
"I'm gonna try and get Rob, Fox and Falco make some kind of translation device. So, that Samus still can communicate. Then- well, I have to ask first who made Samus turn into this?" he asked. No one answered. "You're not in trouble," he added. Link stepped up and almost said that he did it, but Zelda stepped in front of him.
"I really did it, Master Hand. I gave her a potion the other day and it turned her into this. I'm sorry to you and Samus, but there might be a way to change her back," she said hopefully. Master Hand nodded.
"Please, find a way soon," he told her. "Once all the returning smashers and newcomers arrived and winter break is over, we will be starting to do smash battles." he notified her. She nodded. "Well, that was a good talk. I wish you all luck and if you need me, I'll be at my office," he said, but paused. "Also, Ike," MH called. The mercenary gazed at him. "The mall allows pets inside and I'm pretty sure they sell food for pets including cats," he told him and finally left. Ike let out a deep breath.
"I thought it was gonna be worse than I thought," he mumbled.
"Samus is one lucky duck or cat," Link said fixing his mistake.
"So, Ike, are you gonna go shopping tomorrow?" Peach asked almost excited. Link and Pit were shaking their head horizontally behind her. Zelda had widen eyes and Marth look to be praying. Ike shrugged.
"Maybe. Depends on how bad it is outside and how Samus is doing," he said as he looked down at Samus who was lean against Ike.
"Oh, okay!" she said and left.
"Why would you say that Ike?" Link asked him.
"What? I don't see anything wrong with Peach asking me if I'm going to the store," Ike said.
Ike, you're so clueless, Marth thought. "Ike. Peach goes on a shopping spree when you or anyone goes shopping with her. Even Samus agrees," Marth pointed out. Ike looked down and saw Samus agreeing with a shake of her head.
"Also it snowed again today!" Link stated. "I recommend to just not go out tomorrow. Maybe another day," he suggested.
"Maybe you're right…" Ike said out loud.
"Yeah… Although I'm good friends with Peach, I agree. I think it's better off, if you just go on your own or in another day. It'll be too much for you and Samus," Zelda concurred with Link.
"Okay, then. I won't go shopping tomorrow, but I still don't know how to take care cats," Ike still complained.
"Link and I will ask for some items from Master Hand," Zelda volunteered.
"Yeah, we- wait, what?" Link asked, but Zelda was already dragged Link away. "I never agreed to this!" he hollered out and left to MH's office.
"Well, Ike, if you need any help too, I'll be here," Pit told him. Ike thanked him and the angel left. Pikachu and Kirby seem to have also vanished. There was only Marth, Ike and Samus.
"Marth, are you not busy?" Ike asked. He shook his head.
"Not at all. Yourself?" he asked back.
"Nope. Wanna watch tv then?" Ike offered.
"With…" Marth trailed off and pointed at Samus.
"She won't care, come on," Ike assured him and they went to the living room.
Everyone was shocked to see Samus as a cat especially the other veterans. She let the majority of the smashers pet her except for certain ones(*cough*Captain Falcon*cough*).
Even more returning smashers came back including Lucario who seemed to smile when he walked pass Ike. You love her, Ike shook those words out of his mind.
During dinner when no one was looking, Ike secretly took a few pieces of food, specifically the cooked beef. Peach gave him a couple of small bowls where he kept the beef.
"That's for Samus?" Marth asked once the elevator doors closed and progressed to the third floor. Ike nodded while drinking from a can of Doctor Pepper. "I'm curious Ike, but… Do you like like Samus?" he asked. Ike forcefully gulp a large amount of soda and gasped.
"What?!" Ike asked suddenly confused and somewhat annoyed.
"You heard me," Marth sang a little. The mercenary looked away, silently.
"In that way? No, not really. What's funny is that Peach asked same question," he told Marth. Marth's one eyebrow lowered. "I never got to ask Peach why, but I might as well now. So, why is that of interest?" he questioned Marth.
"Well, you're both shockingly close friends and not even all the smashers arrived yet. It might be coincidental, but… Maybe it's another thing. I would ask you another question, but it might not be appropriate," Marth said.
"Spill the beans," Ike allowed.
"Are you sure?"
"That's if you'll tell me or not," Ike stated. Marth sighed.
"What exactly do you do in your room when Samus is there? It must be unusual to have a female as your roommate," Marth questioned. Ike shrugged and walked out the elevator with Marth.
"Hang out, talk, mess around, annoy each other and normal stuff. What do you think we do?" Ike asked. The prince frowned a little. "Wait… Are you serious? Oh my god," Ike started to say. "Marth, that's so dirty! Why would you say or even think that? I would never do that to Samus, even if I wanted to!" Ike started to yell at Marth.
"I knew he would overreact…" Marth muttered as to walked back over to his room.
Ike slammed the door as he entered in and heaved a sigh. He saw Samus on the kitchen counter with the sink on, licking the water. Then his eyes laid on a note with a bag of items. He searched the bag and saw many things. Collars with the name tag SAMUS, a couple small bags of food, a couple bottles of water, a couples toys, a comb, and a bottle of cat shampoo. Then he picked up the note and read it.
Dear Ike,
I just saw Samus once again and I informed her about the items in the bag. You probably saw them too, but they are all for Samus(even the comb!). I did supply you with some food for now, but I really can't do too much. The two bowls that Peach was suppose to give you are Samus's food and water bowls. Also don't forget to give her a bath every once in awhile and like people, they are sensitive in certain spots. I hope this helps. If you need more help or tips, try and ask some others or even myself. Anyway, good luck!
Sincerely, Master Hand
Ike smiled and quietly thanked MH. Samus was still drinking from the sink. He turned it off which surprised her and picked Samus up from the counter. He grabbed the shampoo from the bag and shook it a little.
"How about a bath, Sammy?" Ike accidentally slipped out of his tongue. She looked at him confusingly and irritatedly. "Er, I'll take that as a yes," he answered and brushed it off.
After almost losing a finger during the bath and hair blowing with a hair blower, Samus looked perfectly clean. Ike sighed with exhaustion. The cat shook and almost fell at the edge again, but Ike caught her.
"Careful! Well, at least we got something done," he mumbled and walked over to the bedroom with Samus hanging on his shoulder. Ike grabbed the bag, the box of food, the two bowls and brought those with him. He sat on his bed, placed everything down and pulled out the items from the bag. While he did that, Samus was desperate for dinner, so she opened the box and started eating early.
"Hey, Samus. Check this collar out! It's kind nice- what are doing?!" he said as he saw her tail poke out of the box. Ike sighed and pulled her out. "You just took a shower. Try and not get too dirty, okay? Anyway, here's your collar," he showed her. As Ike brought it closer, Samus hissed louder and louder with a whippy tail and change pupils. This is not gonna end well, he predicted before wrestling with the cat. After twenty minutes, he got the collar on.
"You know what? I just do the other stuff tomorrow. Right now, I want sleep. What do you think?" Ike asked Samus. She just yawned, almost any girl would faint because of how adorable Samus was. The mustard cat leaped off the bed, but she was snatched midair. "And where do you think you're going?" he asked, holding her near the chest.
"Meow," Samus said, pointing over to her bed.
"I know that's where you sleep, but you just changed into a cat! I'll admit, I'm worried about you being on your own over there," Ike told her. "So, you'll stay over here," he said, but she objected by a hiss. "I know, you hate me. I hate you too," he muttered as he turned off the only light on. He pulled Samus closer and closed his eyes.
When Ike started snoring and that she was sure he was asleep, Samus snuck out of his grip. She crept over to her bed and landed on it. She curled up under the covers. As minutes went by, Samus couldn't sleep. The night grew colder and darker. Eventually, she started to shake from chills and crawled back over to Ike. She curled up and laid down near Ike's chest to sleep. Finally, she fell asleep soundly. A small smile crept up Ike's face.
Author's Notes:
Welp, that was interesting... Yo! Nice to see every one again! I finally got this chapter up and it a bit longer than the previous chapters. I want to asked... Do you like it to be longer like this chapter(+5,000 words) or the normal/smaller(about 3,000 words or less)? I just want to know.
So, Samus turned into a cat which happened over night and you know, cats are curious and lazy. This was actually an idea of transformation and shapeshifting. Talking about ideas, if you have any please comment them, but that optional! Also suggestion and kind comments or private messages are appreciated.
I will start typing more of this story and other stories that I haven't published yet. I will also take any suggestive story topic and ideas, mostly video games like Pokemon and such. Anyway, thank for reading this chapter and story so far!
