Ike walked out of the library and ran into Marth and Pit.
"Hey Ike." Pit greeted cheerily.
"Hey."
Marth frowned, "Ike are you okay?"
"Yeah, it's just that the crazy psychotic bitch who managed to cage my heart turned out to be nothing more but a shadow." Ike shrugged. "You know…maybe I should take a break from here….just for a little while."
"Oh…" Pit said, completely bewildered.
"Oh…" Marth said, feeling rather pathetic as the strongest man he knew walked down the hall defeated, shoulders hunched and arms limp by his sides.
"Yeah. I'm gonna go mope and get drunk with Falco now. Maybe Fox and Captain Falcon to." Ike leaned heavily on the railing as he walked down the stairs.
"This has something to do with Sheik." Marth said, his face tight, "How dare she turn Ike into a quivering mass of Jell-O."
"What is this Jell-O you speak of?" Pit asked suspiciously.
"A dish that quivers within your stomach." Marth answered, "Come Pit, let's find Zelda and demand to see Sheik."
Pit nodded and moved to open the library door.
"You go first." Pit said, shoving Marth into the library and causing him to smack into a lithe figure dressed in blue.
One red eye glared down at them.
"Oh shit." Marth said.
"AAAAAAHHHHHH!" Pit screeched.
30 Minutes Later. After tea with Zelda, Link, Sheik, Marth and Pit.
"Well." Zelda stood up from her chair and dusted her hands, "Let's go Sheik."
"Where?"
"To get Ike!"
"Whoa, wait, now?"
"Yes now." Zelda said indignantly, "When? After he's gone back to Crimea?"
"Well…yeah…."Sheik frowned, "Why should I go now?"
"You go get Ike before Peach ensnares him." Zelda threatened, "She may have Mario, but you never know."
"The slut!" Sheik said outraged, and she disappeared.
"I hate when she does that." Link complained, "That means I have to run."
Zelda giggled, "Yes, primal beings such as yourself run, with your fancy swords. What's better now? Metal sticks or magic?" and with that she disappeared into green light.
"This is not a metal stick." Link said, highly offended, "I am highly offended."
Marth sighed, "Let's go."
And the three primal beings ran. Well, Marth and Link walked, Pit floated on his angelic wings, only running into the door beams twice.
In the Dining Hall.
Sheik appeared outside the dining hall door. She opened the door and immediately spotted Ike who was at the very far end, sitting alone, a full mug in front of him untouched, she looked around some more and slammed the door shut.
Everyone was in there.
"Why is everyone in there?" She complained to the heavens.
"What do you suggest? They starve?" Zelda said appearing next to her.
"Yes." Sheik snapped.
Zelda ignored her and opened the door slightly, "Oh, Ike's just over there, why don't you go?"
Sheik glared at her, "Because everyone is there."
"Not everyone, Master Hand is absent but if you would like me to get him—"
"Shut up Zelda." Sheik snarled, "Okay, I need a plan…." She snapped her finger, "I know, I'll set the doors on fire, when everyone sees the smoke they'll run for safety."
"Ike won't run?"
"Not if he's pinned to the wall." Sheik held up three slim gleaming knives.
"Sheik, let's try not to kill everyone in Smash mansion."
"What do you suggest?"
"Walk out there!" Zelda waved her arms around, "Who cares if everyone looks? They'll have to get used to it sometime or other!"
"She's right." Link said coming to a stop by Zelda with his hands on his knees, his face very red, "Besides…they wouldn't make a big deal out of it if they wanted to—"
"Stay alive." Marth finished, waving his hand in front of his face.
Pit crashed into the ceiling above them and fell to the ground. Zelda sighed, "Come along boys. Sheik may wait out here if she so wishes."
And with that Zelda grabbed Pit's wings and Marth's cape, walking into the dining hall with Link in tow, looking back apologetically.
Sheik sneered horribly but they were already gone, and she was left alone outside in the hall.
"Alright. Breathe." Sheik murmured, "What are you afraid of? Walking in a hall up to dumbfuck? You have faced much scarier things, now get out there!" Sheik pointed to the door.
Sheik's legs did not move.
"Dammit." Sheik mumbled. She began to pace, "Okay screw Zelda, where can I get some matches…." Sheik looked up and came face to face with Yoshi who had walked out of the dining hall.
"Hey." Sheik said indifferently.
The dinosaur squeaked and laid a spotted green egg before running back inside. Yoshi was fairly certain that Zelda had been in the dining room, and he had no idea why Sheik would be out in the first place.
Sheik ignored the egg and kept on pacing, "Matches…I don't need matches, I could use a flamethrower…" Sheik looked up and saw Samus walking down the stairs.
"Hey." Sheik said again, expecting the robot woman to at least short-circuit or something.
But Samus was a badass so she just raised her suited hand and walked into the dining room like she ran into deranged ninja's every day before lunch.
"Alright, fuck flamethrowers I need a firework and some dry brush." Sheik said, "Fireworks, where can I get fireworks…" Sheik turned around and spotted Mario. The Italian stared at the Sheikah.
"What the hell are you looking at?" Sheik demanded.
"Ah-nothing…" Mario backed away slowly. He watched National Geo-Wild. He learned that when in the presence of wild animals it was best not to make eye contact, and back away submissively.
"Hey, wait, don't you shoot fireballs?" Sheik asked advancing slowly.
"No…Yes...no…wait..." Mario held up his hands, "I have to go." He bolted back up the stairs.
"Whatever, I didn't need you anyway. Stupid meatball." Sheik grumbled. "Okay…all I really need is fire…"
"Why would you need fire?" a voice asked. Sheik turned around to see Master Hand.
"So I can set the dining hall on fire and kill everyone. Do you mind?"
"Not at all." Hand said as he opened the door, "Oh look! Ike and Peach are talking…I do hope Peach got over that incident a few days ago….my, her dress is rather low-cut."
"BITCH!" Sheik growled and threw open the door, sufficiently smashing Hand in the process.
Sheik strode down the first aisle walking towards the far table which now consisted of Zelda, Marth, Pit and Link, obviously trying to comfort Ike. Peach was nowhere to be seen.
"Bastard." Sheik growled again as she walked by Falco and Fox.
The bird's beak was open and Fox was trying not stare. The Sheikah was obviously mad, walking with clenched fists and a predatory stride.
"What the fuck are you staring at?" she scowled not bothering to look at them.
Bowser who was sitting a little way's farther had the bad luck to walk backwards into Sheik's path.
"Move turtle shit." Sheik snarled, smacking Bowser out of the way. He felt backwards onto a table, snapping it in half.
As she got closer to the table Ike was sitting at, she began to feel unsure…this was the moment. Admit she liked Ike openly to him, or walk away and never step back into his life again. She hated the decisions Ike forced her into. That moron. How dare he. Come to think of it, Sheik was a little mad at Ike. The idiot had the nerve to kiss her yesterday, without her permission, not that he had asked for it the other times.
Scowling Sheik marched up to Ike whose back was facing her. She folded her arms and cleared her throat angrily.
"Look whoever you are, I'm not in the mood. Go away." Ike glared up at Marth and Link who were in front of him, "You guys too. Seriously."
"Move dumbfuck." Sheik growled, pushing Ike sideways as she sat down, grabbing a cookie from the plate Zelda had set in front of him.
"Who the hell—" Ike sat up straight and reached for Ragnell before he turned to look at who dared to use his favorite nickname. His eyes widened and the heart that was dead slowly began to beat again.
Sheik didn't mind the way he looked at her.
"Ninja bitch." Ike said calmly, grabbing the cookie from out of her mouth. "Push me again and I'll kick your ass to Hyrule for you."
"I'd like to see you try." Sheik sneered moving to punch him.
Ike grabbed her wrists and held it to his chest before grinning, "I'd never do that. I'd miss you too much."
Sheik pulled down her cowl to grin at him, "Fuck you."
Ike laughed and pulled her close. Sheik wound her fingers through her hair before turning to glare at the awestruck group in front of them.
"Don't you have somewhere to be?" she demanded, pulling her hand briefly away from Ike's hair to pull three knives from the air.
"I think they do." Ike held up Ragnell, never letting go of Sheik's waist.
"Oh yeah!" Marth blushed.
"Sorry!" Link said, covering his eyes.
"We should go—"
"Can I be the flower boy?" Pit asked naively.
"Let's go." Zelda said quickly, grabbing Pit by his tunic and towards the exit.
Ike scowled and turned to face everyone in the dining hall, "That goes for the rest of you too."
"Yeah." Sheik said holding up multiple knives now, "Beat it."
No one needed to be told twice.
Once the dining hall was completely empty, Ike turned back to Sheik, "Ninja bitch." He said affectionately, stroking her face.
"Dumbfuck." Sheik responded hitching her legs around his waist.
Ike lowered his head to kiss her. She was just like he remembered it, soft and firm, tasting of caramel and smelling of gunpowder.
He was just like she remembered him, strong, unyielding but tasting sweet.
He pulled back and grinned at her.
"I hate you." Sheik mumbled.
"I know." Ike said as he bent down to kiss her, again and again and again.
Epilogue! Because I'm the author and I can!
And so, Sheik and Ike entered a relationship that was a dangerous as it was romantic. It was far from perfect. There were plenty of fights over reasonless things, Ike learned to dodge knives almost as good as Sheik, and Sheik learned to swing Ragnell around almost as well as Ike.
There were many fights but not once did either of them leave the other. There were times when Sheik could only stand being around Ike, and Ike could only stand being around Sheik. And there were times when all Sheik wanted was for Ike to hold and there were times when all Ike wanted was to have Sheik in his arms.
Eventually they married, and Pit got to be the flower boy, Link presented the rings, Zelda was the maid of honor, Marth was the best man. The entire Smash Mansion attended the wedding and everyone was involved in tricking Sheik into a dress, in the end it was Zelda who convinced her and Ike who helped her dress.
And yes, they did have beautiful ninja mercenary kids, but well, that's another story.
Ahhhh! AWWWWW! I'm crying. Haha just kidding, I put a happy ending there's no reason to cry.
