Chapter 7

Samus was panting. He wiped the sweat off his forehead with the back of his hand. "Man…he's gotten strong." he thought. Samus side-stepped to attack Sheik. When Samus leaped at him, Sheik grabbed his leg and slammed him against a rock. When Samus recovered, he grabbed Sheik's arm and tried to flip him, but both of them ended up on the ground from exhaustion before Samus could continue his move.

"This is pretty tough!" Sheik said, Samus grabbed his hand and helped his friend up.

"You'll get it, trust me." said Samus, sitting down at a nearby picnic table. He ran his fingers through his black hair.

"I'm the one who should be training you!" Sheik said, Samus laughed.

"Where are the others?" asked Ness, "They should've been here 30 minutes ago!"

"Beats me." said Fox, shrugging. He and Falco sat at a picnic table and put the basket of berries down.

"What are those?" asked Peach.

"Blueberries." said Fox, "Try one."

Young Link took a berry and popped it in his mouth.

"This is good!" he said.

Fox smiled.

"Ok, where are the others?" asked Bowser.

"What others?" said Link.

"Shh….listen!" said Fox, turning his ear towards the forest.

"You do know you could've tainted the meat in that animal!" yelled a voice through the forest.

"I know what I'm doing!" another voice yelled back, "Get off my back, will ya!"

"Uhh…what's going on?" asked Ness.

Roy and Marth burst angrily through the trees.

"Where's breakfast?" asked Peach.

"Coming." said Roy angrily.

Ganondorf came out with the limp Deer on his shoulder.

"Did I hear anything about tainted meat?" asked Link.

"Ganondork poisoned the Deer!" said Roy, taking a seat besides Falco.

"WHAT!" Link asked, and then he turned to Ganondorf.

"It's completely safe!" he said.

"Whatever!"

"Link, would I poison an animal that I would eat too?" Ganondorf yelled, thinking about himself.

"I guess not." he said, then he turned his back. "But it would be wonderful if he did." He murmured to himself.

"It doesn't matter." said Sheik rolling his eyes, "Put the Deer somewhere, and then we can take care of it later!"

Ganondorf laid the Deer on the grass.

"Is it….?" Young Link asked.

"It's still alive!" said Marth. Mario slapped his head.

Roy walked towards the Deer, and then he backed away.

"Oh yeah, it's alive alright!" he said sarcastically.

"I'm being sarcastic!" yelled Marth.

"SO AM I!" Roy yelled back.

Bowser walked towards the Deer. It smelt dead, which was why Roy had backed away from it in the first place.

"I….guess I put too much poison into that animal." Gannondorf said.

"At least we'll have something to eat!" said Link as he drew out his sword. He stabbed the Deer and ripped its stomach open. The others backed away, while Link was working on the Deer.

An hour later, the group couldn't move.

"That's the last time I'll ever eat another Deer." groaned Samus, resting his head on the picnic table. Sheik was also on the table. And so was Zelda. Bowser was inside his tent. Ness, Young Link, and C.Falcon were resting their backs against a tree, while Roy and Marth were resting on a tree branch. Fox and Falco were curled up under a tree. Mario and Luigi were inside a tent.

"I…can't…move." groaned Ganondorf. Link and Mario were resting on a patch of grass.

Peach crawled out of her tent, "We got through the morning alive." she said, "But what are we going to do tonight?"

"I don't know!" said Marth from his position.

"How about we play Truth or Dare?" suggested Link, "If we jump around, we'll be sick anyway."

"Yeah, we can do that!" said Sheik, "Anyone up for game?"

Everyone raised their hands.

"Can we rest first?" asked Falco.

"Sure." said Zelda.
