There was a knock at the door, as Link and Samus got ready for the next applicant. Signaling for them to come in, they were greeted by a young, blond, swordsman wearing a yellow scarf.
"Ah, Isaac! You've come to apply as a fighter?" questioned Link.
The young swordsman gave Link a confused look. "Isaac? My name's Matthew. My father's name is Isaac though."
Link and Samus blinked in confusion at that. They only knew one Isaac and he was way too young to have a son. Speaking of the Venus Adept, he soon entered the room and he was with a young aqua-haired mage wearing heavy robes.
"Oh, I didn't know you were in the middle of an interview already. Sorry about that," said Isaac as he took notice of Matthew.
"This won't end well," muttered Link, quiet enough so that the Adepts don't hear him. Samus on the other hand did.
"What do you mean by that?"
"…If I had to take a wild guess, Matthew is most likely Isaac's son from the future."
"How would you know?"
"You forget, I'm an expert on time and time travel."
"Is something wrong?" asked Mia.
"No, nothing at all," replied Link, hoping to get this done quick before something happens. "So, Isaac, Matthew, you both want to be Smash Fighters?"
"Yup! I want to join and fight against some of the best warriors ever!" answered Matthew with much enthusiasm.
"Same here, though I'd really like to have a battle against you, Link," replied Isaac with a challenging smirk.
"Really now?" asked Link, returning the smirk.
Samus rolled her eyes at this. "Hey, can we turn down the testosterone a notch?"
Link gave her annoyed look, while Isaac look sheepish.
"Heh, sorry about that," said the Hero of Vale.
Mia let out a few giggles. "Always looking for a challenge, aren't you, Isaac?"
Isaac gave the healer a grin. "What can I say, I'm a warrior who likes challenges. Besides, I thought that you liked my warrior attitude."
The shy girl gained a tint of red on her cheeks, making Isaac let out a few chuckles. He thought she looked really cute when she blushed. Matthew saw all this and wondered something.
'Is this the reason Mom and Dad don't live together anymore? Dad had feelings for this girl in the past and Mom didn't like that? I better find out more when I get home before I jump to conclusions.'
"Ahem, can we get on with this interview?" asked Samus gaining the Adepts attention.
"Sorry about that, Samus," apologized Isaac. "So anyway, I just wanted to see if I could move up from Assist Trophy to Smash Fighter."
"I think we can work something out Isaac. Matthew, we'll send in your application as well," stated Link as he took the two applications and put them in the outgoing pile.
"Thank you very much. I think I should take my leave now," replied the Venus Adept from the future.
"We should probably get going as well before Garet started wondering where we are and gets into some sort of trouble," said Isaac.
There was then a crash heard out in the waiting room and a very familiar yelp.
"It sounds like he's already in trouble," said Mia with a sigh.
"Let's go!"
The two Adepts quickly left, though Matthew stayed behind.
"Is there another way out? I feel as if I shouldn't interact with them more than I already have," stated the boy as he turned to his fellow blond/es.
"Sorry, but you'll probably have to sneak by them if you don't want them to see you," said Link, truly looking sorry for the boy.
Matthew let out a sigh before he made his way out. At least he got to see his father in his youth.
"Time travel is a very confusing thing, isn't it?" asked Samus.
"You have no idea."
CHAPTER END
-:-
On the request list I have, Matthew was next and Isaac was further down. Seeing as they are father and son, I decided to put them in the same chapter. I'll most likely do the same with other requests and put two in the same chapter at the same time as long as the two characters have something in common. This will help shorten my workload.
I also added some Mudshipping to this chapter because it's great pairing and honestly could have been more believable and less forced than Valeshipping was. At least, that's my opinion on that. Matthew's thoughts on in this were to try and make Mudshipping a possibility in GSDD since Isaac and Jenna don't even live together in that game, if that makes any sense.
