So close, no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters
Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don't just say
And nothing else matters
Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters
Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
But I know
So close no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters
Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
But I know
Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don't just say
And nothing else matters
Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters
Never cared for what they say
Never cared for games they play
Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
And I know
So close, no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
No nothing else matters

[ SSBM HQ: Lounge Room ]
All 26 of the smashers are sitting
around, in groups or alone, each having their own conversation.
Zelda, Samus, Nana, Peach, and Jigglypuff
were sitting close to the doorway, looking around and trying to guess
what everyone was thinking. It was Zelda's turn:
She took her time, leisurely scanning the
crowd of assorted heroes, villains, and travelers. They had already
discussed Gannondorf and Bowser's heated argument, the three swordsman's
duel, the children's game of hide-and-seek, and that didn't leave very
many people for the next rounds topic.
No one seemed to have a very interesting
or suspicious mood, conversation, or activity, so the Princess of Hyrule
had to scan the misfit crowd many times. Then she saw him.
Mewtwo was sitting alone in a corner, away from every one
else. This wasn't unusual for him, since everyone was either afraid of
him, thought him to be weak and a waste of time, and there was also the
fact that he seemed to prefer being alone. But lately he had begun to
make friends with most of the Smashers, so it was kind of surprising to
see him sitting alone again.
The psychic Pokemon was usually able to
cover his emotions, so no one knew what he was thinking, but today he
didn't bother. He looked real sad, but happy at the same time. He seemed
completely confused.
"Zelda, have you found anyone yet?"
Princess Peach Toadstool of Mushroom Kingdom inquired her friend.
"Actually, yes," Zelda replied while
pointing to the corner Mewtwo was sitting in "him. He seems troubled,
what do you think is on his mind?"
"Oh, he looks upset. I don't really know,
Samus?"
"I'm a bounty hunter, not a psychiatrist, how should I
know?" Samus
Aran said. "If anyone, Jigglypuff should know. She's a Pokemon too, so
she could at least guess."
"Jiggly! How am i supposed to know? I haven't
spent my life around psychics." Jigglypuff replied.
"We can just ask him." Nana, the younger
of the two Ice Climbers, suggested.
"I don't like to see him like this.........let's go." Zelda
said, and started to walk towards him"
"Uh, is it just me, or is she actually going over there? What
if he snaps and attacks her?" Peach asked, but no one was around to hear
her, all the other girls followed Zelda already, so she had no choice
but to go with them.
"You stole my money, and you know it!"
"Ganondorf, get it through your head! I did NOT steal your
money!" Bowser and Ganondorf were still arguing.
"Stop denying it, turtle! Now, fork over the - wait a
second........where are those girls going?" Ganondorf asked after
catching sight of the princesses, bounty hunter, and children.
"Looks like they're gonna go see Mewtwo. Think somethin's wrong
with him?"
"Dunno. We should go see. You get the three swordsmen, I'll get
the mini fairy-boy and the bird brain," Ganondorf ordered.
"Hello? Mewtwo, are you awake?" Zelda inquired as soon as she
reached him.
"Mr. Kitty, are you still here?" Peach asked in a rude manner.
"What do you want?" He said, without looking up.
"Well, we saw you earlier, and it seemed like something was
bothering you. Are you okay?" Nana chirped from behind Zelda.
"I don't really know....." Mewtwo answered.
"What's wrong?" the Hyrulian princess asked, by now very worried.
Mewtwo looked up and saw that the other girls seemed very
worried. One by one, all the remaining smashers walked up, with the
swordsmen, Falco, Bowser, and Ganondorf at the front.
"It seems that everyone i know, everyone i've considered a friend
throughout my life, has either betrayed or abandoned me," He began.
"There hasn't been a single person trustworthy enough to even care about
who i was. When i first came here I thought it would be just the same as
everything else. But I was wrong. No one here has rejected me because i
was different, but actually accepted me."
Mewtwo stopped talking to think for a minute, and when he did
Nana ran up and jumped in his lap, smiling at him. "Many people think
neither of us should be here at all, because we're different, but life
is ours, we live how we want and no one can take that away. We shouldn't
be discriminated because we aren't like them. Nothing they say should
matter, as long as we're all here."
"You all trust and care for eachother, you all have helped
eachother through hard times, and I find it hard to believe that I'm
actually apart of this group. It all seems......fake," Mewtwo paused
again, then continued. "I have always yearned for a home a place wher
I'm among people I can trust and people who trust me. After all the
troubles of my past, how can I be sure I have actually found a home?"
Zelda stepped in front of Mewtwo and grabbed his chin, forcing
him to look into her eyes. " Listen, you are not alone here, you can
trust us"
"How can we hate you if you're our friend?" Roy asked
non-chalantly, as if it were as plain as day.
"Look at me, I'm a tall walking, talking bird that flies around
in an airplane shooting people, and they haven't thrown me out yet, why
you?" Falco asked, not expecting a response.
"What everyone is trying to say is that you are one of us,"
Bowser explained.
"We don't care if you're a fish, a pig with wings, a flying cat,
or and overgrown turtle with horns that breathes fire!" Ganondorf said,
gesturing towards Bowser at the last part.
"You are our friend, who cares what everyone else out there in
the world says, so get over it and come with us, we're all going out for
a picnic!" Peach chirped happily while grabbing Mewtwo's hand and
walking out the door, with everyone else following.
