Chapter 7
Lucina looked out onto the setting sun from behind a balcony railing as she thought out loud, "What I am going to do? Since I can't return to my own time I must find someplace else to live instead of Ylisse."
"I believe I can be of assistance to you, Lucina." A voice claimed prompting the blue haired princess to turn around.
Once she had done this the blue eyed princess saw Ganondorf walking towards her with his cape flowing behind him. Lucina quickly grabbed a hold of the hilt of her sword as she harshly asked, "Ganondorf, how could someone like you possibly be able to help me?"
"I can help you because I am willing to offer you a chance to come back to Hyrule and live in the Gerudo Desert with me." The Gerudo answered with a large smirk on his face.
"And what makes you think I'd be foolish enough to join forces with you?" The princess spat eyebrows raised.
She watched carefully as the orange haired man raised up his right hand and slowly moved it up and down for a few seconds. After he had done this Lucina watched as something was being shown on the nearby wall thanks to some sort of dark magic. Once the image was in clear view, the princess's eyes widen in shock when she saw her father spinning Princess Zelda in the air for a momen before the two brought their lips together into a gentle kiss. Once this had been shown the image disappeared as tears began to fall down the blue haired swordswoman's face while she shook her head and let out, "No, no, that can't be true. My father would never do something like this. H-He would never betray my mother's love like this."
As the tears fell from her face Lucina found her legs giving out on her. And when she fell onto her knees she heard Ganondorf's voice once more while he said, "You can't blame him for doing that though. Back in Hyrule Princess Zelda is often commented om her beauty."
"So what you're saying is that she inadvertently seduced him?" Lucina wondered out loud, as she raised her head up a little.
The blue eyed princess froze in place when she saw Ganondorf walk up to her and kneel down onto one knee while he placed a few fingers underneath her chin and lifted it upward. And once she was looking up at him he offtered, "If you would like I can help you get revenge on Zelda for destroying your parents marriage."
"No, before I partake in any type of revenge I want to ask them about this matter myself." Lucina replied, while she stood up and walked away from the orange eyed man.
But when she started to walk away from him Lucina heard the Gerudo's voice once again as he said, "Very well. But if you require my help after talking to them, then all you need to do is ask for it."
ooooooo
Zelda gently placed a gloved hand onto one of Chrom's hands while she asked, "Chrom, do you think you're ready to suggest my idea to Lucina?"
"Yes, I think now would be a good time to do so." The King of Ylisse agreed, as the two began to stand up together.
Once they had done this a knock was heard on the door prompting the princess of Hyrule to look over at it while she asked, "Yes, who is it?"
"It's me Robin, may I come in for a moment?" The tactician asked back from outside the door.
"Of course, Robin." The Hylian woman replied, before the door to her room was opened. And while the brown eyed woman walked into the room with a medium sized stack of books Zelda added in amazement, "Oh my, that is certainly quite a bit of books you have there Robin."
"Yes, I know it is. But while I was reading some of these books I realized that some of them might be interesting to you." Robin explained, as she set the books on a nearby nightstand.
Seeing this caused a smile to spread on the noblewoman's face as she walked up to the other woman and replied, "Thank you very much, Robin. I'm certain I will enjoy reading each and every one of these books once I find the time to do so."
But while the two women were walking away from the stack of books Zelda saw an orb of dark magic coming straight for them from seemingly out of nowhere. Before either she or Robin could do anything to counter the attack both women were pulled out of harms way by the blue haired swordsman. Once this happened the orb of magic hit the nearby wall and exploded, yet it did not leave any sort of burn mark. Both Zelda and Robin looked up at Chrom who looked back at them and asked, "Are both of you alright?"
Before either one of them could answer back to him another voice cut them off when it demanded, "Father, what are you doing?! Is being bewitched by Zelda not enough for you?! Now you're giving in to Robin as well?!"
Hearing this caused the three to look over at the doorway only to see Lucina with a misxed expression of sadness and angry. Both Zelda and Robin broke away from the swordsman as the princess of Hyrule answered back with, "Lucina, this is all just a unfortunate misunderstanding. Neither I or Robin would do anything that would have an ill affect on your father's marriage."
"LIAR! Why should I believe you when Ganondorf showed me the truth?" The blue haired swordswoman shouted, as she took a few steps forward.
"Lucina, why would you believe someone like Ganondorf?" Robin questioned, while she also took a step forward.
Zelda knew that she had to do something when she explained, "Lucina, you must not believe Ganondorf. He is just trying to trick you to accomplish his own goals."
The blue haired princess grabbed the hilt of her sword as she countered with,"No, I know that you're lying!"
Zelda's eyes widen in horror when she saw the swordswoman pull out her sword and charge at her. Before she could do anything though she saw Chrom get in front of her while he said in a demanding voice, "That's enough Lucina!"
"Father…." Lucina let out as tears fell down her face. And when she had put away her sword she turned and began to walk out of Zelda's room. But when she had reached the door the Hylian princess saw the young woman glare at her as she continued with, "Zelda, I challenge both you and Robin to a team match right now."
"A two versus one match. That's not very fair." Robin pointed out, while she kept her eyes on the swordswoman.
"Fine if that idea seems unfair to you then how about we have an eight man match consisting of four teams." Lucina offered, as she did her best to calm down.
"Very well then, but let's just hope you do not regret making such a challenge." Zelda warned, as she began to think of a partner for her team.
A/N: Ok, so as you all know I might not be able to update again until next weekend. However, with that said this will give me a good chance to figure out the best way to type out an eight player smash match.
