Just a little something to show that this is not dead. Barely alive, maybe, but not dead. :)

I don't know where this came from, especially since I'm actually agnostic.

On with the fic!


Sentence # 90 - Prayer

Um...

Are you there, God? It's me...Lucas.

I know I haven't been talking to You a lot...My mom always told me to pray, but I couldn't do it. With her gone, I just...can't do it out loud. So I'm writing you this letter. I still can't figure out where this notebook I found came from...

But never mind that. I'm not going to talk about my mother or notebooks.

I'm praying for my friends.

The thing is, I've made a lot of new friends thanks to this tournament called Super Smash Brothers. Most of them have abilities I could never even imagine (one of them can summon animals called Pokemon by tossing balls!), and I'll admit I was scared of everyone, but a few of them became some of my best friends.

There's Nana and Popo...Peach, Takashi (the Pokemon Trainer), Pikachu, Link...and Ness.

Ness has the same abilities I do; we both can use PSI. I don't know all about it myself...You probably do, but You won't tell me, will You? Anyway, we became friends really fast, but I can't help being jealous of him...this fat guy named Wario tried to turn me into a trophy, and Ness pushed me out of the way, becoming a trophy in my place.

I wish I could have his courage...because every one of us (Smashers, I mean) can use every ounce of courage we can get. We're about to face this bad guy named Tabuu, and he's really strong...he turned nearly every one of us into trophies! If it weren't for Ness, Luigi and Dedede...I don't want to think what could have happened. And I know that everyone else is scared...I can feel it.

So please...if you can't give me courage, then please help us beat Tabuu. We're going to need all the help we can get. Thanks anyway.

Signed, Lucas.


"Hey, break's over!" Snake yelled, pulling Lucas out of his letter-writing. He looked up as every Smasher started to walk off. The only exception to this was Ness, who looked at the blond curiously.

"Hey, Luke? Whatcha writing?" he asked, reading the letter over Lucas' shoulder. When he was done, the ink-haired psychic wrapped an arm around Lucas' shoulder.

"Lucas, I'll admit I'm scared out of my mind right now," he said. "but there's only one Tabuu, and how many of us? I think if we believe in ourselves hard enough, we're bound to think of something."

Lucas pondered Ness' words, and then nodded. "Y...You're right, N-Ness."

And with that, he stuffed the little notebook into his pocket as the two followed the rest of the Smashers. As they did this, Lucas felt a glimmer of hope in his heart.


Please review! :D
