Chapter 3

Where ever Marth is>

Marth was walking through a vast forest that seemed to go on forever. He stopped to hear a conversation coming through a bush.

"Wait that can't be right Angel. Link doesn't live long enough to get married to Zelda. What makes you think that she is still alive?" said a female voice that Marth instantly recongnized as it being Samus' voice. He was surprised to hear her in a forest. Her voice seemed different though and seemed to have a mean tone added to it. Marth sat down on a stump to think about this for a few minutes. He heard right... he knew that much. He knew that he heard Samus talking to a girl about Zelda.

"This can't be good," whispered Marth as he ran behind them. Samus and the girl looked behind them and they turned their attention to Link and Roy who was crying. Marth soon saw that Roy had a different look in his eyes, the only look that appears on his face if he was ready to fight. Marth got scared for a minute. Then when he saw them leave he walked out of the bushes to see Roy looking down at him... and Roy was smiling at him. Marth couldn't tell then but he wasn't alone. He looked for a way to get to them. He got wood and then he was captured by a man with the same color hair as him and he was wearing black. The man called to a few other people and Marth was startled as the man next to him looked exactly like Link.

"So this is what my younger self looked like? Hm... he seems a lot different than I remember."

"Who the heck are you idiots?" asked Marth in an irritated tone of voice. The man that had blonde hair back off a little. All that the man with dark blue hair did was smirk.

"Yep this is my younger self. There's no doubt about that."

"Younger self? Wait! So you're-"

"That's right. I'm your older self in 7 years. Within those 7 years though I caused Chaos and I killed Roy."

"Marth now look what you did! You ruined it! You ruined my fun. All well I'll have fun killing him," said the blonde man who Marth guessed as Link.

"You're Link aren't you?"

"Maybe... maybe not. You'll never understand Marth. Even if 7 years have passed. I loved Zelda but I couldn't just say that I didn't want to be around her. So I pretended that I was killed."

"T-that's horrible... wait so you're what Link will look like in 7 years, so that means that. Marth! You're going to help me get off this island or else!"

"Or else what? What are you going to do?" sarcastically questioned the older Marth who was laughing at this point. Marth, (the younger one) took out his sword and pointed it at his older self's neck. Marth was smiling. The older Marth, (let's just call him Mars for now) sighed and made a boat in seconds. Marth was amazed and he carried the boat to the dock where Roy was found. He placed it in the cold, calm waters that was swiftly carrying the boat away from Marth's grasp. Mars and Link got in and Marth jumped in. They were now sailing to nowhere.

"Hey Marth? Just curious, where were you when you arrived?"

"I was in a tree in the forest so I thought that I would try and find Roy and Link but its too late. They left to somewhere but I don't know where."

"They're off to find everyone else in each galaxy," replied Link who was twitching slightly. Marth was looking at him confusingly. Link stopped twitching long enough to explain Marth why he was twitching.

"I'm twitching because I'm slightly afraid of water."

He began twitching again and they were sailing to nowhere.

"Hey Mars? Just curious but how is traveling by boat going to take us to different galaxies?" asked Marth who was yawning because of their adventure so far.

"That's a stupid question Marth. The different galaxies have rivers that lead to, well the lake we're traveling on so our first stop would probably Onett."

"Yipee. Well I'm going to take a long quiet nap until-"

Before Marth could finish Link was starting to drum a solo on the boat. Marth sighed and let his hair fall into the water.

"Nevermind about it being quiet then."
