"Ugh, I'm so bored!" Pit leaned across the back of his chair with his arm over his face in a dramatic fashion.
"You could always dust the main furniture," Palutena offered with a wicked grin causing Pit to immediately sit upright.
"I'm fine!"
Palutena then sighed, "Really though, you should learn to enjoy the peace and quiet every now and then."
"We have enough peace and quiet. I want some adventure."
"Really, Pit, life isn't all fun and games. Sometimes, it's housework," She handed him a magically conjured duster.
He dejectedly went to grab the duster when a bell began tolling. Both looked up in surprise knowing that the bell meant a visitor and they had a good idea who it was. Pit looked at Palutena with pleading looked. She folded her arms and got rid of the duster, "Very well."
"Yes!" Pit jumped into the air in excitement and did a few practice punches, "I gotta stop by the armory."
He then ran off with Palutena following much more slowly while shaking her head, but there was a slight grin on her face.
"Hiyah!" Pit dove and fired off an arrow of light which Dark Pit had little trouble avoiding and responded in kind with a few shots from his staff. Pit skillfully evaded the shots as he ran up on his doppelganger. Getting in close, Pit separated his bow into blades and began to slash, but Dark Pit deflected the blades with his staff.
"Take this!" Pit yelled and brought both his blades down in a leaping slash. Dark Pit blocked it, but Pit cut right through it.
"Look what you did!" Dark Pit held up the two pieces of his broken weapon, "Do you think these things grow on trees?"
"Sorry, guess I just don't know my own strength," Pit made a show of flexing his bicep.
"Are you sure it had nothing to do with using my namesake's bow?" Palutena asked with her hands on her hips. Pit just shyly rubbed the back of his neck with a red face. Meanwhile, Palutena turned her attention to Dark Pit, "Hello, Pitto."
"Hello," Dark Pit replied through gritted teeth.
"So how is Viridi doing? Not causing any trouble I hope."
"She's been keeping to herself," Dark Pit huffed, "When she's not annoying me at least."
Palutena was about to make a snarky remark, but something else caught their attention.
*Beep* *Beep* *Beep*
It was coming from Dark Pit who whipped out his communicator having brought it with him when he left for Skyworld.
"What's it say?" Pit eagerly inquired.
"We need to go," Dark Pit dropped his grumpy air demonstrating just how serious this was, "We have a code black."
