(Toon Link P.O.V)
"Ah! What're we gonna do!?" Sunny screamed as all of the children Smashers ran around in a panic. Ethan and Lucas were crying in the corner, the other Inklings were trying not to ink each other, the Ice Climbers has tag teamed to try and help the situation, and Young Link was still M.I.A from trying to get our problem to Zero, a well-known, well-liked assist trophy. The problem?
Mega Man was missing, gone without a trace!
"Guys!' I hollered, 'Cool it! We can figure this out. We just need to search for clues!" "Are you kidding me, Toonie!?' Ness yelled in a rage, 'the Blue Bomber just vanished into thin air, and we have no idea why. Searching for clues is out of the question until everyone chills the bleck out! That reminds me, CAN EVERYONE SHUT THEIR YAPS FOR A SECOND!?"
I stood off to the side, away from the madness, trying to recall the last few minutes just in case it would come in handy.
Flashback!
"Phew! That was a close call!" Ness sighed, relieved that Zelda had left. We all went back to doing our thing, and Ethan walked over to Rock for a second. "So, my dude', he asked, 'wanna play a game? I know you're plugged into the wall and all, but we can still play, oh, I dunno, a board-game?" Rock shook his head and went back to his strange book.
Suddenly, Tiki strutted in, much to our dismay. "What do you wants Tiki?' Young Link asked, annoyed, 'haven't you already poisoned us enough?" "Wow, aren't you smart', she mused, 'I haven't given any signs, and you figured me out like Gharnef would the Shadow Sphere. Figures, from the Hero of Termina". Taken aback, Young Link squinted at her as Tiki pointed in his direction. Not long after, Young Link started feeling a little bit strange...
She meandered towards Mega Man, who was still reading and was acting like Tiki wasn't in the room at all. Ethan promptly left to join our posse. Tiki put her fingers on Mega's little chin and lifted his face so his eyes met hers. "Why, hello there', Tiki chuckled at Rock, who had a confused look on his face, 'Mega Man, right? I've heard so much about you. It's quite an honor!"
I looked from the side of he conversation, and as I listened to Tiki soften up our friend, her eyes began glowing a sickly shade of neon green. 'Wait, where have I seen that before?' I thought, 'glowing neon green eye lights, strange behavior, Fire Emblem character— wait, no way! That can't be... Princess Veronica!? From Fire Emblem Heroes!?'
Apparently, Lucas had read my mind, so he quickly squeaked, "You h-had better n-not try anything f-funny, Princess V-Veronica". Tiki's head whipped around to stare at Lucas, an evil smirk plastered to her pale face. Rock stood up, took a step, and Tiki grabbed his arm, and Ethan shot her threatening glare. "Make one wrong move, and I will call Samus, Tiki!" he snarled as Mega Man bit his lower lip.
Tiki merely grinned, and whispered, "Say goodbye, you little wretches", before a puff of smoke filled the room. I heard Tiki cackle as I tried to make my way through the smoke, to no avail. Suddenly, the smoke had dissipated as quickly as it had arrived, and we were all alright, but we all took one look at the empty back corner and died inside. Mega Man was gone— again. First Count Bleck, now this. (Insert bad word here), and now Samus would kill us...
"Young Link', Ness ordered, 'go get help. Toonie, get everyone calm. I'll handle the rest. Children Smashers, GO!"
End of Flashback
I had just finished calming everyone down, when the door came flying through the room, scaring Lucas out of his wits. A tall man with a long ponytail stood in the doorway, holding an unconscious Young Link by the arm. "WHERE. IS. LITTLE. X!?" he screamed. That's when we realized that Samus was going to be he least of our worries.
