Author's Notes- … I've got nothing right now. You'll just have to read and find out.
How Dare He!
Master Hand tends to some letters that he needs to send. He has decided to invite both Pac Man and Palutena to the next tourney, so he needs to get those invites out soon before he forgets.
To Nana's liking, Master Hand leaves the door to his office wide open. She goes in to rummage through the files. She is stunned to learn that Master Hand has at least heard of almost every character in existence. Apparently Master Hand has decided that a witch named Ashley should be an assistant trophy. There is a Koppaite named Alph, a princess named Midna, and even a warrior named Galacta Knight; all of which Nana had never heard of before. She should really do her research.
Meanwhile
Mario and Luigi play Mario Kart 8 in the lounge room. Link, Ike, and Samus observe.
"Who's the dude with the mask that looks like a hockey goalie?" Ike asks. Believe it or not, but he watches a lot of sports.
Luigi replies, "That's Shy Guy." Luigi shivers remembering that day a Shy Guy tripped in front of him, losing his mask. That is the second scariest image Luigi has ever seen- the scariest was when he accidentally walked in on one of E. Gadd's science experiments that was being taken place in the bathroom.
Mario, of course, wins the race. Luigi puts another tally on the chalkboard. He has lost 534 times to his big brother in a row. He just can't seem to win.
Suddenly, Wolf hits the window outside, startling everyone in the lounge room. Samus and Link run outside to check it out.
Sheik is in an epic battle with Wolf just outside the mansion. Since they aren't in a scheduled brawl that Master Hand knows about, any move is acceptable. Samus has been in many unscheduled battles with her fellow smashers, because that is how the tough smashers solve their problems.
Link and Samus both root for Sheik, but Wolf ends up winning after smashing Sheik on the ground and scratching his face.
"Hey Wolf, you and me right here and now." Samus challenges. Wolf rolls his eyes with a smile, which just infuriates Samus. Samus also takes that as a yes.
Meta Knight and Lucario watch the battle from the roof. Lucario comments, "To be honest, I thought Sheik would beat Wolf."
Meta Knight shrugs. "No living soul can predict the outcome of a conflict based on revenge."
"Revenge?"
Meta Knight nods. "Sheik beat Wolf in a brawl the other day, and I'd say the humiliation of losing made Wolf want a rematch."
Lucario can't argue with that. Meta Knight is pretty good at guessing reasons for things.
The back door opens, and Lucario hears it. He walks to the other side of the roof to see who just came out. Meta Knight notices and says, "Lucario, you are going to miss this battle. Samus looks pretty determined to break Wolf's leg."
Jigglypuff and Kirby stand in the garden. Kirby picks a flower and hands it to Jigglypuff. Lucario goes, "Aww!"
Meta Knight looks back at Lucario. What could Lucario have seen that made him give an audible sign like that? What could be so cute? He goes to look.
OH. That explains it. He sees Kirby in the garden, and assumes that was it. That is when Jigglypuff pops out of the flowers. "Lucario, what did you see?"
Lucario clears his throat. "OH, um. Well, Kirby just gave Jigglypuff a flower, and I thought it was a very kind gesture."
Meta Knight's grip tightens on his sword.
"Yes, I remember young love." Lucario walks towards the middle of the roof. Meta Knight catches that: "Wait what? Who's giving love to whom?"
Lucario just starts blankly talking. "It was about a decade ago. I was but a young Riolu searching for food. My hand reached into a berry bush. I didn't touch a berry, but a soft hand. On the other side of the bush was the sweetest type of sensation; a cute girl. I remember stepping back while my face turned red as the young Buneary walked around the bush into my view."
"Lucario, did you read the feeling of love between Kirby and Jigglypuff?" Meta Knight starts to become frantic.
Lucario snaps out of his flashback. "Huh? Kirby and Jigglypuff have some sort of love connection? Says who?" Meta Knight facepalms. "OH! You want me to check."
"Yes!"
Lucario, seeing something urgent in the knight's eyes, runs over to the edge of the roof and looks down at the two pink puffballs. His eyes turn golden as he starts to read both of their auras.
"Well?" Meta Knight hopes he sounds angry rather than concerned and worried.
Lucario looks back at Meta Knight. "It seems Kirby really has feelings for Jigglypuff, but Jigglypuff doesn't seem to have as strong as feelings." Lucario looks away. "Wait a minute, why are we snooping in on their relationship?" Meta Knight is already gone.
Olimar and Pikachu walk down the hallway. Just as they turn the corner, Meta Knight comes running through. Pikachu pushes himself against the wall so he isn't run over. Olimar suddenly becomes interested on so many levels. Meta Knight can't be late for a battle because well, he has never been late for one, and because the portals to the stages are in the opposite direction. Why else would the knight be in such a hurry?
Meta Knight stands on the windowsill, looking out a window leading into the backyard. He has a perfect view of Jigglypuff and Kirby. Kirby, looking so innocent, inches closer to Jigglypuff as she stares at the tulips. Kirby sees the flower he gave her in her right hand. He gently takes it and puts the flower in her hair. Jigglypuff smiles, looking at Kirby. Kirby's cheeks become slightly flushed as he smiles.
Meta Knight's eyes become bright red. How dare he!
