Chapter 9
/Ness' POV/
I scratched my head. I was sure that Zelda didn't like Roy. With all those things she said about a week ago.
Hm. I'll never understand girls.
I went over to my desk and turned on my computer. I watched it flicker a few times and then the Blue Screen of Death came up. I gave it a much needed slap before I restarted it. I needed to buy a new one.
I opened up the word processing program and started to type. I pretended to. All the information I got from Roy wasn't really working. I had to make a best selling book. I heard someone step into my room, but I ignored it.
"It's Marth." The person said, putting a hand on my shoulder.
"Whatcha writting?" I shook off his hand.
"A best selling story."
"Oh, what's the genre?"
I thought for a moment.
"I...I don't know yet. Maybe anguish."
"Make it tragedy."
"Why?" Marth sat down on my bed and didn't say anything.
"I don't know. Tragedy is a great genre. It's almost like anguish, I guess. Only people die. But it's sad! And people die and others feel bad, yeah..."
I stopped typing and looked at my fingers. "Like Roy's life, huh?"
Marth shifted on the bed. "Why'd you say that?"
I scoffed loudly at him. "Oh! You know what I'm talking about! You shot Roy."
"What? Where did you get that? Did Roy tell you?"
I turned my chair around and started madly at him. "He didn't need to tell me. I could already tell. I thought you guys were friends. Good friends."
There was an eerie silence.
"No we're not."
"Ah don't lie! I saw you two. You totally kissed him."
I really needed to stop saying totally. For the first time I got a good look of him. He had a cast around his whole arm. I've never seen that before...
Marth rolled his eyes. "I don't care about him. I never did. I was just his friend. And friends don't..."
"You're just about messed up as Roy. Friends care about other friends. You both are crazy." Marth got to his feet and glared at me.
"Don't you dare compare me to him." He moved closer to me.
Ah, not again. I rolled between his legs and ran out of my door. Marth followed me slowly. This was like The Shining! I freaked and started screaming my head off.
"Shut your mouth, Ness!" Falco yelled at me, everyone was watching a movie.
Eating Popcorn!
I wanted to make a detour, but Marth was on my tail. And no one, not even Link, cared if he was about to dash my head upon the floor.
There was only one safe haven. The clinic. Where Roy and Zelda were. I ran straight there, Marth a few thousand feet away, waving his fist.
When I got there, the door was locked. I stared lamely at it and banged the door. Zelda opened it and I flew inside.
"Lock the door! Marth's coming!" Zelda covered my mouth and pointed over to a sleeping Roy. I rolled my eyes and locked the door. But no sooner then I did that, Marth came banging at the door. We all freaked, even Peach, who I just noticed was in here.
Roy was groaning, so Zelda opened the door. Marth came stomping in, pointing at me.
"You lil'."
"Shut-up, Marth." Roy muttered under his breath.
Marth's face was turning red. Peach gave him the middle finger.
"You punk. I still can't believe you shot him!" She said. Marth walked over to Roy and sat down near his legs. Peach also moved closer to Roy, to protect him, I guess. Marth stared at his face, and closed his eyes.
/Marth's POV/
Peach was really starting to piss me of again. But I've got to learn how to control my anger. Roy started to stir, and now I was wishing that we were in the room alone. He opened his eyes a little and looked at me. He still seemed a little angry, and scared too. I stared back at him. And then...
"Hey Roy. Are you awake. I can see your eyes!" Peach screamed, grabbing him. She pulled him in for a hug.
"Ow, you're hurting me." He moaned, trying to move away from her. But she held on tight.
Roy had bandages wrapped around his upper half of his body. Mario overdid it, if you asked me.
When he pulled away from Peach, he looked over at Ness.
"Oh, hi." Ness reopened the door I must've closed.
"Yeah, c'mon Zelda! Everyone's watching a movie! I think it's 'She's too old' or something crappy like that. But there serving Popcorn!"
They went berserk and rushed out of the room. Roy sighed.
"Boy, I wish I could watch that movie." He laid back on his bed and covered his head with his pillow.
"Why can't you?" Peach asked. What a stupid thing to say.
"'Cause no one likes me there. And Marth, why the hell are you here?"
I wasn't at all stunned by that question.
"I was chasing Ness. I didn't come here to see if you were alright. Of course not."
Roy removed the pillow from his face. He looked so sad.
"Yeah. Of course not." His voice cracked at the last part. He covered his head again.
"Well I'm leaving." I said, Roy shrugged.
"Alright." Peach gave me the finger again.
I went for the exit before Roy said;
"I didn't betray you, you monkey. You're so conceited."
A monkey? Conceited. I turned around.
"Roy, shut-up."
"You're not the boss of me."
"So."
"You're an evil person." He sat up and coughed. Peach put her arms around him.
"Marth, why don't you just leave. Before your anger gets the best of you." I turned my head over to her.
"Peach, stay out of this." Roy narrowed his eyes.
"I hate you."
"Yeah, well the feeling's mutual." He got up from his bed, pushing Peach away and stood in front of me.
I laughed. "Are you trying to challenge me? You know you can't win." Roy smiled and pulled something out of his pocket.
A knife.
This kid's full of surprises.
"Marth, remember what I told you not to say. You know, that you care about me. Or something like that," He moved closer. "I told you, whenever anyone ever said that. They'll probably end up hurting me."
I saw Peach smirk from the corner. Was she in on this too?
"And you did. You don't really care about others, do you?" He brought the knife up and laughed to himself. "I've always wanted to do this. But I never had any courage to."
"Do what?"
"Kill myself. I've already accomplished the task of killing others." He nodded.
"What? Roy what are you talking about?" Peach asked. Roy shrugged.
He was about to say something to her, so I snatched the knife out of his hands and placed it in my pocket.
"You know. I could tell Mario, get you carted back to Pherae. Or I we can keep this between just us 3. And I don't ever want to see you try to kill yourself. Or mention it." Roy wasn't surprised.
"I knew you would do that," He stated in a monotone voice. "But, you can't keep watch on me twenty-four seven. You would be a pervert if you did that. And why do you care all of a sudden?"
I thought of a reason. I cared about him, of course. But it wasn't all that much. "I don't-I just don't want your death to be on my conscious." I lied.
Roy bought that.
"Alright."
"But don't think I'm going to let you go off that easy. I can come to your room whenever I want. You know, so I won't be a pervert. But anyway, if I see you trying to kill yourself, or anyone else. I'll make your life a living hell." Roy's eyes sparkled.
"You really do care!" Then he went back to normal. "Okay, I got you."
Peach walked up to us. "Are you going to forgive him for shooting you?"
"Peach, you think I forgave you for shooting me?"
I hadn't. And I wanted to get her back.
"Hey, retribution isn't the answer." Roy said in a pleading voice.
"We just don't get along Roy." I said.
"Well, I don't care. Just quit fighting."
"Roy, stay out of this. If Marth wants to pay me back, he can just try. Remember I got Mario and the others."
I rolled my eyes.
"And I got Link, Young Link, Zelda and the others too."
"Then, Marthy-boy, why don't we settle this right now?"
I pointed at her, does she think I'm that retarded?
"Watch your back, Princess Peach of the Mushroom Kingdom. That's all I have to say."
"You too, Exiled Prince Marth of the Kingdom of Altea. You too."
"Yeah, and if I see any of guys cooking up any trouble. I kill you." Roy stomped out of the room.
/Peach's POV/
I always thought of the past so fondly. Sitting on my bed, after the confrontation with Marth, that's were I always daydreamed. I was waiting for Daisy, to put our plan into action.
I didn't like the scheme we were working on. I turned to my side as she entered my room. She was bubbling with excitement.
"You should've been there. Ganon got into an explosive fight with Roy. And even though that boy's injured...they still fought. Well, it really wasn't a fight. Roy ran away. But they both got a few hits in. That boy should've just shut-up."
"What did he do?" I was starting to fret.
"Well, I guess the kid wanted to watch the movie, but Ganon started making fun of him. He made fun of his family, and he said some pretty cruel things. Called him a psychopath. Roy couldn't take it. So it escalated from there."
"Maybe I should go check up on him." Daisy shook her head.
"No, we have to put Operation Blue Hawk into action."
"Operation what? I thought it was called-"
"Nah, didn't like the name. So, how are you and Roy doing?"
"Fine..." I sighed. I started to reminisce what happened five nights ago. I couldn't believe he did that. It was so wonderful.
Daisy gave me a thumbs-up and grinned. She then tied up her long brown hair;
"Don't get to attached! But what did you do?"
"Everything..."
I planted my head on my bed and started to snicker. "It was so nice. I mean, I thought he would back out!"
"Wait, don't tell me you two..." I nodded.
Daisy squealed and started laughing.
"But, you don't want to get pregnant. So don't do it too much." I frowned.
"I don't choose the times. Um, Roy does. He kind of scares me."
"Harsh. But Mario and Luigi aren't noticing." I sat up.
"But, if they did find out. They'll have his head." Daisy scrunched her nose.
"Yeah. But we still have to make them jealous. At any cost. So you'll stay with Roy. But what about me? Link or Marth? Those are the only hot guys I could think of."
"There's Fox."
"He hates me. Link's cool, but he's too aloof. Marth's hot and handsome, but he has anger issues."
"Pick Link. Marth's anger is a little too...overbearing."
Daisy clapped her hands. "Right, I'll start hitting on him. But I have to watch out for Zelda. That whore..." She growled.
Daisy was about to leave, but I stopped her. "Daisy. Do you think Roy's...what do you think of him?" Daisy crinkled her nose again.
"He's annoying. Stupid. Has no brains whatsoever. Cruel. Has a big mouth. He's puny and he can't fight. I wish he'll die. He needs too. He's useless. Like I said, don't get to close to him."
That was so mean. She left and I wanted to see Roy. If he was okay.
I went to his room and tried his door.
Locked.
"Roy," I said in an alluring voice. "It's me, Peach."
"Le...ave...me..." His voice was so low and scratchy I couldn't hear him. I was staring to get scared.
"Roy! Please open up!"
He tried to say something, but I couldn't hear him. I tried for his door, but it wouldn't budge.
I began to sweat. I needed someone, fast. I ran down the stairs and went to the kitchen. Link and Marth were conversing there.
"Guys! Something...Roy. I think. Come on! I think he's trying to..."
I couldn't finish. Link and Marth stared at me, as if I were crazy.
"What? We can't understand you..."
Marth nudged Link.
"Nah, he's okay. Ganon just pushed him around a couple of times and said some things. He can take that." I clenched my fists.
"No he can't! Forget you Marth. You're a lousy friend. Link!"
"Alright, we'll follow."
All three of us went upstairs.
"Roy, open up." Link said, knocking on his door. Marth pushed him back.
"Watch the pro do it." He took out his credit card and slide it into the door. It opened easily. Link growled.
Roy's room was dark, and it smelt funny. Like blood.
"Hey Roy?" Link said. Marth coughed.
"The smell..." My leg hit something soft.
"Roy!" Marth and Link rushed over to me. We bent down.
Roy was staring straight ahead, his eyes had a blank look to them. One arm were wrapped tightly around his legs.
"Hey, man, speak to me." Link pleaded, but Roy didn't say a thing. I nudged him, but nothing happened.
"Roy?"
His eyes slowly drooped and his head moved onto his knees.
"Gu...ys. I...m so...so..rry. Fo...r everything."
Roy stammered. I saw his fist clench. I noticed him tense as he brought out his other hand, which was hidden before.
Our eyes grew impossibly large.
A bloody knife.
"You...just came out of the clinic! What's wrong with you?" I screamed.
Roy slowly lifted his head and he grinned at us.
"Everything."
He closed his eyes and his body relaxed, the knife clattering to the floor. Marth picked him up.
"I'll take him to Dr. Mario. He may have to go to a real hospital."
Link followed him, and I stayed behind. I took the knife in my hands and started to cry.
Roy needed some help.
And he needed it right away.
I love knives. Not like that. I use them like swords, cause I love hearing the sounds of the swishing. Don't fret, Roy isn't dead. Now what fun would that be? I'll try to update soon.
