Much to the spectators' anger, the battles for the next day had also been
canceled. Of course, they knew nothing of the situation concerning Zelda.
The cause of the repeal was due to a meeting that was taking place between all the smashers, Impa, Summer, and King Harkinian and Toadstool.
Everyone sat there anxiously. Zelda and Link were lying on strectchers that had been slightly propped up. The conference was being held to try and figure out who was guilty of attempted murder.
Zelda was forced to painfully tell of the events that had occurred the other day. There were many gasps from the smashers.
"Zel, that's horrible,"Link whispered, leaning over and giving her hand a small squeeze.
Her eyes were brimming with tears. "But I don't know who could have done it," she said to the whole congregation. "But whoever it was, I'm sorry for whatever it was I did that upset you."
"You did nothing, Zelda," said King Toadstool, taking a stand. "Now princess, you say that there was a car in the garage. Whose was it?"
"I don't know," Zelda admitted. "All I can remember is that it seemed really beat up, and it was a kind of cerulean blue."
Captain Falcon suddenly turned pale. "J-Jeanie," he whispered.
"What?" asked Samus.
"T-that's my car!" he stammered. There was a long thing of quietness.
"Is that a confession?" Samus asked callously.
"No!"
"It couldn't have been Falcon," Zelda coughed wearily. Everybody turned sharply in her direction.
"Why not?" asked Fox.
"It couldn't have been Falcon," she reiterated.
"Yes, you said that, but why not?" Falco questioned.
"He-he's too stupid."
"You know," said Samus thoughtfully. "She does have a point."
"The whole thing could just be a mask!" Peach shouted to them. "I mean, who knows? The whole stupid act could just be made up! Who KNOWS what brilliant mastermind Captain Falcon could be under all that stupidity?!"
"Why thank you, I'm flattered," said Falcon.
"You shouldn't be!!" Peach yelled at him.
"Wait a second," said Captain Falcon slowly. "Jeanie's not my car any more!" The crowd started murmuring. "You bought it from me!" The speed racer pointed his finger at Peach.
"Are you insinuating that I am responsible for trying to murder Zelda?!" Peach screeched. "How DARE you!" The smashers looked at her in disbelief, waiting for her to continue. "Why, you sold me that junky car just yesterday! Only hours before Zelda's attempted murder!!" She turned towards the others. "Don't you see?! He's trying to frame me!! He sold me the car, and then used it to try and kill Zel, and make it look like I did it because he sold it to me!"
Captain Falcon looked horrified. Everyone now looked at him, waiting for him to say something in his defense. "I-I didn't do it!" he finally managed.
"Anything to back that up?" Samus asked coldly.
"Well first off, why would I even want to kill Zelda?"
The smashers all had to agree that that was a good point. But who else in this room would want to kill the Hyrulian princess? Slowly, DK lifted his finger, and pointed at someone in the room.
"You."
All eyes followed the direction of DK's stern gaze, and it led them to Gannondorf. His eyes widened.
"No!" he cried. "No! I didn't do it!"
"Yes, you could have!" Young Link accused. "The poker game, the tango, you were just kissing up to Zelda, trying to gain her trust!" There were several nods and mumbles of agreement.
Ganon shook his head with disbelief. "No! Believe me, my ways have changed!" No one looked convinced.
"That's the problem," said Marth. "We have no proof! And until we do, we can't accuse anyone of the felony!"
"He's right," Roy seconded.
"Well then what was the point of this meeting?" Kirby asked.
"We have two suspects," King Harkinian declared. He turned to his fellow king Toadstool. "I suggest that we place them both under castle arrest until this whole matter is cleared."
"We can't do that," Roy stated.
"Well why on earth not?"
"Innocent until PROVEN guilty, remember?"
"Isn't it at all possible that someone OTHER than one of us may have committed this crime?" Samus asked.
"No, it wasn't," said Peach. Everybody's heads turned in her direction, waiting for her to enlighten them. "After you all went outside, Impa, Zel and I locked all the doors. We were just playing a game-you know, a joke. To lock you outside and see how you would react."
"Is that true, Impa?" King Harkinian asked, surprised that she'd do that.
"Yes," Impa sighed. "So there goes that possibility. Though I must say, it does narrow our list of suspicious characters."
"Hey, wait a second," said Link, gazing around the room. "Where-where are Mewtwo and Ness?"
The smashers looked around, and noticed that the pokemon and small boy were indeed nowhere to be found.
"Where are they?" Young Link thundered. "They MUST have known about this meeting! It was announced several times!!"
"And I don't recall seeing them today at all," Ganon said.
"Or last night!" Kirby shouted.
"Jiggly-jig jiggy?!" Jigglypuff screeched.
Everyone looked around for Mewtwo. "Oh great!" sighed Samus. "Now we don't have that stupid pokemon to translate for us anymore."
"I said 'what if they did it," Jigglypuff stated in perfect English. Everyone stared at her, and she suddenly covered her mouth. "Oops!"
"Hey, you've been able to speak English THIS WHOLE TIME?!?!" Samus bellowed. The pink puffy poofball nodded silently. Samus calmed down. "Well why didn't you just speak our language in the first place?"
Jigglypuff folded her arms and shook her head.
"Look, this is getting slightly off topic," King Toadstool finally said.
"It all makes sense now," said Zelda quietly.
"What does?" Summer asked.
"Well, who ever tried to kill me had to get rid of them."
"Get rid of who?" asked Peach
"Ness and Mewtwo," Zelda answered calmly.
"But what for?" Bowser inquired.
"Simply because the two of them are both psychic." Everyone stared at the princess with confused looks. "They would easily be able to tell which of you did it by reading your minds. It would take them no effort to discover the guilty one."
As everyone thought this over, three gloved Toads walked into the room. One was carrying a rope, and another was holding.car keys? The third whispered something (long) to King Toadstool. He gestured towards the rope and keys, then he left the room. ~*~*~*~~*~*~*~*~*~ OOOOH! Mysteeeeeeeeeeerious!!! review, please!
