With so much free time and so much ideas (thank God) I can finally continue!!

"Zelda?!" Link cried out. He started to run towards her, but she threw Din's Fire at him. The front of his tunic got grazed and burnt off, revealing his six pack.

Reenie stood her ground. She kept her blue eyes on Zelda, trying to study why the princess's face appeared so emotionless. In the few days Reenie had been here, she had known Zelda to be quite kind and could not understand why her cousin wanted her to follow this girl.

But the reasons were coming so clear now...and Reenie was still confused.

Link was holding his arms in front of him, trying to heal the burn. Zelda stared down at the hero with a blank look. Link felt chills spinning through his spine, and not in the good way.

"I tried to warn you all..." Marth said, moaning. He had a bruise on his forehead and a long cut on his arm. "I tried to warn everyone that Zelda was paranoid and dillusional."

Zelda did not respond. She merely began charging her magic power and aimed it at Reenie.

"Fuck no...I need a smash ball...I gotta turn her into her Trophy form so we can settle this properly," Reenie thought.

Zelda threw her magic at Reenie and Reenie just barely was able to dodge it. A purple bruise appeared on her right upper arm and she winced in pain.

"Screw the smash ball, I'll just do this anyway!"

Reenie let her transparent wings out and flew up to face Zelda. Her eyes glowed and turned red and her highlights became snakes again.

"All who look into my eyes become immobile and incapable!"

But something was wrong...Zelda was completely unaffected by the magic Reenie was exhibiting. Reenie shut her eyes and the snakes became hair again. In a desperate attempt to keep herself defended, Reenie pulled her swords out and crossed them in front of her.

"Get back, Zelda!"

Zelda shook her head and floated out of the cafeteria. Reenie uttered another curse and landed. The smashers who were conscious gave weak cheers, except for Marth, who just looked mad for some reason.

Link went over to Reenie. The teenaged girl looked very shocked and angry about something. "You okay?"

"No," Reenie responded. "No, I'm not."

"But you're not too hurt..." Link checked the bruise on Reenie's arm. She pulled back and shrugged.

"It's no big deal. We had better get these people down to see Doctor Mario, though," Reenie said, snapping her fingers. Those who were asleep suddenly began floating. Those who had wounds stood up, except for Wolf. Link went over and slung one of Wolf's arms over his shoulder.

"Come on, I'll help you get downstairs."

"Thanks...geez, why'd I have to get stuck with a fuckin' broken leg..."

Within minutes, the infirmary was filled up. Reenie got an ice pack for her arm and Link recieved some burn healing cream. The doctor rushed around, trying to set up casts and give various methods of treatment to the other smashers. Red, who was the only smasher uninjured in the Cafeteria, was helping the doctor.

No one, not even the doctor, went near Marth. Link was looking to Ike, Red was helping Pikachu and Reenie was tending to Lucario. The doc was going everywhere. Marth helped himself to a band aid and some ice for his forehead and left the infirmary.

He had more important things to look to right now.

Ike was suffering a broken arm and some singed hair. He watched quietly while Link put a cast on his arm. "Aren't you going to laugh at me too?" the blue haired swordsman asked.

"No," Link said. "Now shut up, I've never put on a cast before. I don't want to mess up."

"It's a well known fact that I'm an official queer by now. So go ahead and laugh."

"That's not like you at all, Ike," Link said, not meeting Ike's eyes. "Someone in the mansion played a very cruel joke. Personally, I don't believe a word of it."

"What?"

"Ike, ever since you met Peach, you've acted like she's the only one who exists. I can't exactly see you betraying her like that. I still believe that the whole thing was fake," Link said, wrapping the cast up. "The whole announcement on the intercom...for one thing, some parts of it didn't make much sense. For another thing, it had to have been a vicious prank for someone to put it on Master Hand's intercom. I even talked to Master Hand that night about it and he said nothing like that would have been treated as an announcement. He's also convinced someone was trying to break you two up."

"Well it's good someone believes me, at least," Ike muttered.

"I'm your friend. Why shouldn't I believe you?" Link asked, making the cast tight. He got a pair of scissors to cut off Ike's singed hair. Ike cringed.

"I really don't want to cut my hair..."

"It's either this or you walk around with burnt hair. Take your pick because it makes no difference to me," Link said, shrugging. Ike gave in and Link snipped the dark blue hair shorter. It hardly made a difference, but Ike hated it.

"It'll grow back soon..." Link groaned, wishing Ike would stop complaining.

Meanwhile, across the room, Reenie was looking after a knocked out Lucario. She was trying to rouse him from sleep, which wasn't very easy. The aura pokemon looked so peaceful and happy to be sleeping. But the bump on his head was severe enough and if Reenie didn't try to wake him up now, he'd sleep forever.

She was trying to use cold water to stop the swelling bump from getting too big and also hoping the shock would help him awaken. When that didn't work, she went to get a Pokemon's Awakening medicine from the cabinet. Lucario stirred, but wasn't quite awake yet.

"What's left?" Reenie wondered aloud. "Doctor, can you come and take a look?"

"I can't right-a now!" Doctor Mario said, flustered. "Ask-a Red, maybe he knows-a how to cure-a Lucario."

"Okay..." Reenie looked over to Red, who was putting a gauze band aid on Pikachu's left ear and tail. "Red, when you're done, can you come over here and help me with Lucario?"

"Yeah, sure," Red said, not really paying attention. Reenie shrugged and decided to look to someone else.

"Do not go anywhere."

"Huh?" Reenie looked around. She thought she heard a voice call out to her...maybe she imagined it?

"No, you did not imagine it. I am communicating with you by our aura signatures."

Reenie looked around and noticed Lucario's aura was brimming. She walked back over to him and took one of his paws into her hands.

"Well that certainly helps."

"Lucario? Why aren't you awake yet?" Reenie used her own aura to transfer her thoughts to Lucario.

"I used some of my power fighting against that imposter Zelda. Most of my aura vanished with her magic. The bump on my head is nothing: it will disappear soon. I will just sleep to recharge my power, so do not fear for my health."

"I see..." Reenie thought. "So you have also noticed that Zelda was a fake."

"Her aura was not like the real Zelda's. Zelda's aura is a pure white. That imposter Zelda was exhibiting a dark purple aura...that resembles the darkness in Ganondorf's powers."

"Ganondorf? Does he have something to do with this?"

"I don't think so...the fires of her aura looked more like...the Shadow Bugs."

"The Shadow Bugs? Is that even possible?"

"If someone's been manipulating them, yes. But it would have required extensive programming for the Shadow Bugs to look like an exact copy..."

"I see now...all I have to do is track down whoever's programming the Shadow Bugs."

"That reminds me...I have some questions for you, Reenie," Lucario interrupted her thoughts.

"Huh?"

"I can see your aura perfectly. You're not what you say you are...are you?"

"Well..." Reenie hesitated. "I'm sorry, but I can't reveal that. I have to stay a secret."

"Well then...will you tell us all when the time is right?"

"Maybe...we'll have to see what happens." Reenie released Lucario's paw and lowered her aura.

"Wait, there is one final question...how did you discover that Zelda was a fake?" Lucario asked.

"My power allows me to turn any living being into their trophy form. Those shadow bugs are duplicators, so they couldn't be turned into a trophy at all. That's how I knew." Reenie went to another smasher's bed and started tending to his wounds. Her thoughts shifted from many things: from Lucario's words to the Cafeteria incident to the smashers. If they found out who she really was, how would they react? Especially...Link?

Reenie definitely liked Link. He was generous, kind and very handsome. Since she first came, he had been caring for her. It had been the only kind of care she had ever recieved in her life, and she held on to it like a precious jewel. If Link found out who Reenie really was...would he shun her, like everyone else had?

Her heart fluttered in utter fear at the thought. She bit her lower lip to prevent herself from crying.

Pit was one of the few smashers who was not in the Cafeteria, and managed to avoid a disaster. He and Metaknight were walking outside when Zelda floated past them and up to a window on the fourth floor. Metaknight was quick to realize who's window it was.

"That's Marth's room!"

"What could Zelda be doing in there?" Pit asked. Metaknight only could shake his head (which was really his whole body) back and forth, indicating that he didn't know. Before they could say anything else, the two swordsmen heard screams from above them.

"No! Stop it, Marth! I don't want it!"

"You'll want it and you'll TAKE IT! Take it alllllllllll..."

Pit looked at Metaknight with a horrified look on his face. "Metaknight...that sounded like Zelda!"
