A/N: Hey, y'all.

Marth: Why are we here again?

Link: I don't know. I don't remember cause Nintendo Nut hasn't updated this story in such a FRICKIN LONG TIME!!!!!

Yikes! Sorry! O_O Don't be mad at me, okay? Be happy!

Marth: Don't worry, be happy. . .

Link: Don't you dare start singing that song.

Anyways, here is the fifth chapter!

Link and Marth: FINALLY!!!

Super Smash League III: Chapter 5: The Plot

"He had a nightmare?" asked Zelda.

Marth nodded. "He was really shaken up. I've never seen him so. . .afraid before. . . He went on to tell me how bad his experience in the orb was. . . It was horrible. . ."

"What was it like?"

"I-I can't explain it like he can. . . I never experienced it. . ."

"Yes, you did!"

"Well, his was much more tragic than mine. . . I mean, that Crazy Hand just gave him pure torture. . ."

Zelda nodded, looking concerned. "Well, he seems fine now. . ."

"Just don't bother him about it. We don't want him to get upset."

"Right."

The discussion was then left alone, and they resumed eating their breakfast with the others in the cafeteria. Link approached their table.

"Good morning." He greeted them casually, as if nothing happened the night before.

"Morning." The other two greeted.

Link turned to Marth. "The arenas open in five minutes. Meet me by the Terminia Great Bay arena."

"Actually, we should practice at Hyrule Temple. It has more room."

"Aren't Roy and Zelda practicing there?"

"Well, we were thinking of switching to Great Bay so Roy could get used to smaller arenas." explained Zelda.

"Works for me. See you there, Marth." He walked off.

"Look at him," Zelda sighed. "He's acting as if nothing ever happened."

"Must've gotten good sleep."

Ganondorf smirked evilly. He had heard the whole discussion from his table behind them. He now knew the perfect way to defeat them. He just had to somehow inflict them with the same kind of pain that the orb gave them. As he was thinking, Falcon looked up at him suspiciously across the table. What was he scheming?

~*~

"BAM! Ha, ha, there he goes!"

The Fighting Wire Frame used for practicing flew back in the sky.

*This method seems to be working, DK.*

"Yeah! We've got this tournament in the bag!"

*Remember, there are other teams. Don't be so over-confident.*

Suddenly, a voice came on the intercom.

"Mewtwo! I need to speak with you privately."

*Why?*

"Because!"

*What about DK? I can't leave him alone!*

"I'll send Falcon in. Just come out!"

Mewtwo sighed and was teleported out of the arena, and Falcon replaced him. DK was hopelessly confused.

". . . What's going on?" he asked.

"Ganondorf's got something up his sleeve." answered Falcon.

"I'll bet he's gone insane like Bowser did. . ."

"Should we go see?"

"I guess so. . ."

~*~

After leaving the arena, DK and Falcon stood outside Ganondorf's dark dorm and silently watched the discussion.

*NO! I can't do that! It's wrong!*

"Mewtwo, I need you to do this, whether you like it or not! Now, I know you have the psychic ability to transfer a set amount of pain. If you could give me the power to transfer the pain those two suffered in the orb. . ."

*I cannot do that because I never experienced it before.*

"Well, then, get it from them!"

*. . . No. . . I refuse to do such an evil thing! I will NOT be a part of whatever you're scheming!*

Ganondorf held his hand before Mewtwo's face, ready to charge up a spell. "You. . . refuse?"

Mewtwo scowled. *You evil, son-of-a. . .*

"DO IT!! NOW!!!"

Mewtwo closed his eyes, beginning the procedure.

~*~

"YES!! I've got it!"

"Nice job, Link! A perfect Counter!"

Link smiled in triumph. Suddenly, a massive amount of pain filled his head. He screamed, dropped his weapon, and held his head in strain, collapsing to his knees. Marth rushed to his side.

"Link! What's wrong?"

". . . M-my head! AHH!!" He cried out in pain. It felt like a thousand hammers were pounding on his cranium. Then, it just stopped. It went away as sudden as it had come. Link opened his eyes wide with a surprised look on his face.

"What was that all about?" asked Marth.

". . . I. . . I don't know. . . My head just suddenly started to hurt. . ." He held his head in strain.

"Does it still hurt?"

"A little. . ."

Marth looked very concerned and helped Link to his feet. "I think you need some rest."

Link nodded, wincing in pain.

~*~

Mewtwo struggled, but soon. . .

*I have it.*

"Alright, now give it to me!"

*But I. . .*

"DO IT NOW!!"

Mewtwo sighed in frustration and grasped Ganondorf's hand. The transfer went silent and then Mewtwo suddenly groaned and collapsed, grunting in pain. But it quickly ended.

"Sorry. I just needed to test it." Ganondorf smirked.

*You. . . (gasp). . . monster. . .*

DK and Falcon gasped silently and ran out quickly.

~*~

Marth closed the door of Link's dorm behind him, leaving Link alone to rest. He was a bit confused as to why it just happened so suddenly. Perhaps Mewtwo would know. . . He slowly approached the door of Mewtwo's dorm and opened it to find Mewtwo inside, silent.

". . . Mewtwo?"

*. . . . . . . . Yes?*

"Something really weird happened. Me and Link were just practicing, and he suddenly got this massive headache for no reason. Do you know why?"

Mewtwo paused for a long time. Oh, how he wanted to reveal Ganondorf's plan, but then remembered that quick amount of pain. If he spills it, Ganondorf had ways of dealing with him.

*. . . . . . I'm sorry, I don't. . .*

"Oh, okay. Sorry to bother you." He left, slowly closing the door.

If only you knew. . .

A/N: Ganondorf's planning something again! UH OH, SPAGHETTIOS!!!!

Link: (sweatdrop). . .

Marth: She's so strange. . .

Link: o.O; You just figured that out now!?

Ha, ha. . . Review!!!!!!!
