A/N: HAHA!!! The first part of "Fear Itself" is almost over! Like 3 more kills or so...meh, more...alot more...I guess...Also, the killer is a OC, sadly. I gave up on first idea (Pikachu was the killer getting pissed about always being left out and stuff.) and went on a different path...and somehow, It seems to be working! But the killers vessel is still a SSBM and its one of these 3:

1) Mr. Game & Watch

2) Yoshi

3) Mewtwo

A/N: Lets see if you can use clues or something to put together who is the vessel! HAHABAHABAWHAHA! Anyway, after we meet the killers younger sister (Another OC!), The story starts to take a differnet path! HAHAHAHA! Don't like it? Read till I finish Fear Itself, then hope they find out who the killer is. C might be a OC or Crazy Hand. Or maybe...BOTH?! 0.o Hehe. Don't worry, still a few more chapters of death to go.

Y. Link, Pichu, Gannondorf, Ness, Roy, Master Hand, Crazy Hand (?), Zelda, Mr. G&M (?), Mewtwo (?), Yoshi (?)

Fear Itself

Chapter 8- Fear of Loneliness

---Dinning Room---

"Are we going to have enough food?" Asked Kirby, pulling him self up so he could look at the cabinets. "We can't get out and that means, we won't have enough food!"

"Yes, we have enough food to last an entire year...That is, unless you eat it all." Samus said, staring at the puffball sad attemped to grab a can of soup. Kirby reached up to the highest row, slip and fall right into the sink, making suds, dishes and water fly everywhere. Samus used her grappler beam to grab one of the dishes, but the others, crashed on the floor. All Sixteen of them. Samus sighed and placed the one saved plate on the table and sat down.

"Oops..." The puffball said, trying to pull himself out of the sink. "Can you help me?"

"No..."

"FINE!" Kirby yelled, yanking himself out of the small sink.

Samus sighed. "Why didn't you just float up there?"

Kirby mouthed those words mocking and floated up to the top row, grabbed a can of soup and floated down. "There, are you happy?!"

Samus was about to say something witty, but was cut off by Marth. "Samus, we need to talk. Come to my room when your ready, but hurry." Marth said, before walking off.

"Oh, I think he likes you!! HAHA!" Kirby laughed as he tried to open the can. "Stupid lid!" He said, before taking out his hammer and smashing it, sending red juice flying everywhere. Kirby's pink body was now a deep crismon. He licked his lips and smiled. "Tomato!" He said, before starting to lick the entire dinning room clear of tomato juice. "Samus, you should really try this! It's always better when I open it like this!" But no answer came. Kirby stuck his head up from his licking fest to see no trace of the bounty hunter. "Samus? Oh well!"

---Marth's room---

Samus opened the door to her friends room to see Marth, Peach, and the Ice Climbers talking. "I'm here." She said, closing the door.

Popo smiled at Samus and jumped up. "Yey! Now we can show you what we found out."

"Found out?" She asked puzzled.

Marth stood up and handed her the paper found at Zelda's murder site. "Look."

"I've seen it already..." She said, sadly.

"No, look closely. See the handwriting?" Marth said, pointing to the words.

Samus nodded. "It looks just like the ones we've been finding."

Peach shook her head and handed her another paper. "Look, the handwriting is differnt on this one." She said, handing Samus the one found at the most recent murder scene.

Samus looked closely at both and saw what they ment. "It looks like the one we found at Master Hand's death site."

"That means, we think there are two murderers!" Nana told Samus.

"That, or the killer changes writing styles for every other murder..." Popo added.

---Dark spooky place---

"Haha, yes, thats dramatic irony for you." The cloaked figure said, watching the five Smashers have their talk. "C, they've figured out that there are two killers."

"Well, yes, that's true, right?" C asked. His voice was far off in the darkness.

"Your only there to take out the bigger targets, like Master and Crazy Hand. Until I get my power back." The figure replied. His hands began to glow a bright blue, then purple. The aura then fadded to blackness, as the figure smiled. "And that should be very soon. Speaking of Crazy Hand..." He paused, turning around to where he thought C's voice was coming from. "What did you do to him? They never found his body."

"I put him to good use." C said, with a hint of humor in his voice.

"Well, good night guys." Came the voice from Popo.

"See you Popo! Bye Nana!" Peach replied as the two Ice Climbers left. "I don't think it was a good idea to let them leave..."

"Hmm...Yes, now is prefect! C! I am leaving to get my next kill." The figure said, turning away from the orb of light. "I want to test my renewed powers."

"Need me to do anything?" C asked.

"Not now...Wait...Haha...Yes I have and idea. I'll tell you when i return." The figure said, laughing a cruel laugh as he disappeared.

---Hallway B---

Popo and Nana were walking towards their room they shared together. "Do you really think there are two killers?" Popo asked Nana.

Nana turned to her brother and replied, "Yeah...or maybe their trying to throw us off tra-"

POW!

Nana was knocked onto her back and moaned. "Ow...Falco?"

"Sorry." Falco said, lending a hand to lift Nana up, which she gladdly accepted. "I was too busy thinking to watch where I was going..."

"Whats on your mind Birdbrain?" Popo asked, looking up Falco.

Falco, normally, would have punched the person who called that since it was always Fox or Bowser, but they were too young for him to just punch...wait, no, he's punched them before.

WHACK!

Popo fell on his back, with a big black eye. "Oooow...HEY! What was that for!"

Falco smirked. "No one, not even little kids, can call me that and get away with it." He said, brushing path Nana and Popo. "I have to go, I'm, uh, busy!" Falco lied, dashing off around the corner.

Popo stood up with a angry look on his face. "Stupid featherhead! If he wasn't a giant turkey already, I would tar and feather him!" He yelled in the direction Falco ran off. Nana giggled, grabbed Popo's hand and continued walking towards they're room.

---Popo and Nana's room-
(A/N: This might be a little hard to understand. If you don't understand it, in your reveiw, tell me and I'll explain it better in the A/N next chapter.)

Popo opened the door and stepped into their dark room, muttering about Falco. "Hey sis, I'm going to go to bed. If you stay up, don't make to much noise, ok?" No answer. Popo rolled his eyes and turned around. "Nana! Did you hea-" He stopped and saw that there was nothing behind him. No Nana, No door, no anything. "Nana?" He asked, but the only form of an answer was the darkness grew darker.

"Popo! Popo, where did you go!" Nana's voice was faint, but he heard it.

"Nana! I'm over here." He replied. As he began to walk around, he was knocked down by a gust of cold wind.

---Nana's vision---

"Popo? Was that you?" Nana asked, as she made her way through the darkness. "This can't be good..." She said, turning around to see a dark figure hovering over her.

---Popo's vision---

"AAAH!" Popo noticed that scream, it was Nana's. "Nana! Whats wrong!"

"She's crying." Came a voice from behind Popo. He turned around to see the cloaked man, standing infront of him. "She's crying because you left her."

"I did not!" Popo yelled at the man. "You must have-"

"Killed her?" Popo's eyes grew large but before he could do anything else, the figure said, "No, I didn't kill her...not yet. You left you. You forgot her."

---Nana's vision---

"What did you do with my brother!" Nana yelled at the figure floating over her.

"Me?" The figure laughed. "No, I did nothing. He left you behind."

"What? No, he wouldn't leave me...he promised he never would...not again..." She mutter looking down at the ground. "You must be messing with my mind!"

The cloaked man laughed. "Yes, I am. But all I'm doing is showing you, the truth. That you are afraid of being forgotton!"

---Popo's vision---

"What are you talking about! I would never leave Nana! I promised her that after our parents died!" Popo yelled at the man. (A/N: Um...yeah...they died...shut up if you know they didn't.) "And she said she would never leave me either!"

"I'm showing you the truth about yourself. Your afraid of being forgotten." The dark figure said, disappearing.

---Popo and Nana's room---

Both Ice Climbers were wondering around the room, their eye's clouded by a mist of darkness, both screaming eachothers names. The cloaked man laughed. "Yes. Call out to each other. You'll never find one another. Never again." He said, snapping his fingers. The black mist around their eyes lifted and they turned towards eachother.

"NANA!"

"POPO!"

Nana and Popo started to run to each other, but right before they could embrace in a hug, the cloaked man floated in between them. "The time to face your fear is over." He said, touching both of their foreheads. A purple light began to glow, and within seconds, both Ice Climbers were on the floor, unconscious. The figure let out a evil laugh. "Now you two can wander in the darkness forever, never to see anyone or anything but darkness ever again!" He dropped the note he left at every scene and disappeared within a gust of freezing air.

---Unknown Area---

Darkness.

Darkness.

There was nothing here, but darkness. Popo and Nana, wandered through the darkness, looking for each other. "Please, don't leave me alone..." They both muttered to the endless dark.
