Now, for the mystery.
"We brought back food!" Pikachu pushed the door open with his back since he had bags of groceries in both hands.
"Onii-chan~!" Pichu glomped Pikachu causing the groceries to fly but was saved by Mewtwo's psychic.
"Pichu?!" he looked up to see Mewtwo, "Mewtwo?!"
"What are you doing at the door?" Jigglypuff asked with her hands on her hips.
"Jigglypuff~!" Pichu then hugged Jigglypuff.
"Jigglypuff," Lucario came in carrying a lot more bags than the rest.
"Couldn't you at least carry one bag-" he then noticed a very direct and wary aura and realized who it was coming from.
"Hey... Mewtwo..." Lucario sweated.
"Replacement..." Mewtwo grumbled.
"FOOD- POYO~!" Kirby was so excited that he crashed into Lucario, Jigglypuff, and Pichu causing all of them to dog pile onto Pikachu.
"H-Halp... can't feels... anything...!" Pikachu murmured in pain.
~After more explanations and reviving Pikachu from fainting half way (wait is that even possible?)~
"U-Um..." Lucario sweated before taking another bite of his food, "Can you please stop glaring at me from across the table?"
"No." Mewtwo said.
"So, how did job searching go?" Peach asked.
"I'm a policewoman now," Samus showed her badge.
"That makes sense."
"I got a job at a daycare as the one who puts the kids to sleep during nap time, I didn't even need to do an interview!" Jigglypuff hummed.
The others sweated.
"Nothing special, just an employee at a supermarket," Pikachu said.
"Same," Lucario said.
"Wait- poyo, we were supposed to get jobs?" Kirby asked.
"I think Meta Knight will have to get money for you..." Marth sweated.
"Where is he anyway?" Zelda asked.
"Oh yeah, where's Squirtle, Ivysaur, and Charizard too? Didn't they go with you?" Red asked.
"Now that I think about it, I don't remember..." Pikachu murmured.
"Did they?" Jigglypuff asked.
"They did, it's just that we didn't pay much attention to them since we, or in this case myself, figured that they could take care of themselves," Lucario said.
"They shouldn't be out this late though..." Pit said.
~At school the next day~
"Kyaah! Go Ike!" some random fangirl shrieked while Ike was playing baseball with the others.
Roy threw the ball and Ike hit the ball.
"Home run!" someone yelled, then they heard a crash- which is never a good noise to hear when you're playing a sport that includes hitting, kicking, or throwing balls.
"RUN!" Roy yelled while grabbing Marth, "WAIT BUT I'M NOT EVEN PLAYING!"
Everyone that was playing the game ran off so they wouldn't get in trouble.
"You okay?" Red noticed that Pit seemed less active than usual.
"Huh? Uh- yeah, I guess that it just worries me that Squirtle, Ivysaur, Charizard, and Meta Knight didn't come back even though it's the next day by now..." Pit murmured.
"Yeah, that's true, but they're tough so I'm sure they're just fine," Red said.
"Yeah... you're right, I'm sure they're fine!" Pit said.
"Is anyone going to retrieve the ball? It's school property," Zelda asked.
"I'm not sure where it would be though, or what it crashed," Peach said.
"I'll go get it!" Pit said while getting up and running to where the ball was heading towards.
"What teacher do you have for home room?" Zelda asked Red.
"Prof- I mean- Mr. Elm," Red said.
"Isn't he the teacher that got robbed?"
"Yeah..."
"Oh hey! There's Mr. Birch!" Peach pointed over to Mr. Birch... who was getting chased by a ravenous chihuahua.
"HELP!" Mr. Birch yelled while getting chased by the dog in circles.
"Should we help him?" Zelda sweated.
"Nah... he's good..." Red sweated.
"HELP! SOMEBODY! HELP!" Birch was now clinging onto a tree while the dog was jumping up and down, trying to bite his lab coat or something.
"Yeah, he's a nice home room teacher," Peach said.
"We should probably help him though."
"Yeah, we should."
Zelda, and Peach ran off to help Mr. Birch.
"Oh, hey Pit! Did you get the baseball back?"
He walked silently over to Red.
"Is something wro-"
Red felt a sharp pain in his left side.
He soon felt the sharp object come out and he fell down onto his knees in pain and holding his side.
"Pit...?!" Red looked up to see that Pit had a bloody knife and was raising it to strike again.
"Sorry, Red, but, it's not like I want to do this!" Red saw that Pit was crying and before the knife striked him again everything went black.
"AAH!" Red sat up and was sweating crazy.
He looked at his surroundings, it seemed like he was back at the hotel and in his bed.
What... what was that?! Red didn't feel pain in his side but the dream he had felt was too real.
"You're awake now?" Mewtwo was sitting on the side of his bed.
Just to make sure he was awake, Red patted Mewtwo's head.
"What are you doing?" Mewtwo was twitching at how he was getting patted on the head like a dog.
"N-No, it's nothing..." Red lied, "What time is it?"
"Last period should be ending by now," Mewtwo said.
"What happened?" Red asked.
"You fainted when I came back from the forest so I brought you to the nurse and she said that you fainted. I brought you home since I was unsure when you would wake up," Mewtwo said.
"Why were you in the forest?"
"I saw everything those baseball players did and I figured they wouldn't come back so I went to get it."
'I'll go get it!' Red jolted at remembering that phrase, "Say did you met Pit on the way?!"
"Woah, getting eager now!" Mewtwo put his arms up defensively, "No, I didn't even find the bal-!"
Mewtwo paused, "Wait- did I see Pit? I'm pretty sure I didn't... but didn't I get the ball?"
He seemed really confused and Red found it abnormal since he has a really good memory.
"We're back!" Roy slammed the door open.
"Don't do that, you might break it," Marth sweated.
"Marth, don't worry about it! It's not like I have gorilla strength like Ike or Sam-"
Roy got smacked on the head by Samus.
"Where's Pit?" Samus asked.
"Didn't he go to get the ball back?" Peach asked.
"Did he not come back with you?" Zelda asked.
"Huh? No it's- well-" Red was at a lost for words since he couldn't figure what the heck is going on.
They heard multiple footsteps and it sounded like they were running.
The door was slammed open again and they saw Squirtle, Ivysaur, and Charizard.
"Bad news!" Ivysaur yelled, out of breath, "We can't find Meta Knight anywhere!"
"Already? He barely got to speak in the first few chapters though-"
"Ike, now's not the time to say that," Marth sweated.
