We now start chapter 18. Please do not worry about Luigi; he's just…uh…
Mr. G&W: He's sick in the head.
Falco: It's about time too!
Yeah, right. Anyway, Flaco, you disclaim this time.
Falco: Is that a new name for me?
Flaco? Yeah, of course! (Ruffles head feathers)
Falco: …RF doesn't own us in any way, shape, or form. If she did, well, who know what would happen. Anyway, she does own the story, V.A., Brinstar KINGDOM, and well, anything else that didn't come out of a game.
So, here for the reading public, is chapter 18!
It was outside the Mushroom Kingdom. The army was at a standstill in front of the castle, preparing to finally head out to the Shadow Temple.
"When will we march?" Kirby yelled out, completely bored out of his mind. Standing right next to him, polishing his sword, Roy slightly nodded in agreement. A guard, annoyed with Kirby's loud yelling, marched up to the pink ball of puff.
"We must wait for the Chancellor's command," he said. "Now quiet down!"
Kirby stuck his tongue out when the guard turned away from him. He let out a heavy obnoxious sigh and flopped to the ground.
"This waiting is killing me!" He cried.
"It's killing you?" Dr. Mario asked. He turned to Roy. "Should I heal him?"
"It's not literally killing him," Roy replied, with a wide grin on his face. "It's just another way of saying 'I'm bored!'."
"I see," Dr. Mario said, nodding. "Do you feel the same?"
"I do," Roy said. "Sitting here is just stupid."
"Roy! Dr. Mario!"
A mushroom ran throughout the soldiers. It was Toad, Peach's personal toadservant.
"Over here!" Roy called out. The little mushroom man headed over to the three. "What's wrong?"
"I sensed it! I sensed it!" Toad shouted. "We have to move. I sensed it!"
"They're making the clone?" Roy asked. Toad nodded. "Blast!"
"We have to do something!" Kirby shouted. "We have to MOVE!"
"You guys are doing that," Toad said. "The Chancellor wants you guys and Jigglypuff to head over to the temple."
"Now we're talking!" Kirby shouted. "When do we leave?"
"It is done!" Mewtwo's voice rang throughout the temple. "I have the clone of the Hero of Time! Now, come forth, my new creation Link!"
Falcon and Ganondorf, despite being outside of the temple, could still hear their leader's laughter and voice.
"Remind me again why we're out here?" Falcon asked.
"Because I don't trust Pikachu for a second!" Ganondorf replied. "I know he gave those two plans on how to escape!"
Before Falcon could make a reply to Ganondorf's little speech, a round balloon-like object exploded in front of them.
"Wh-what was…" Falcon managed to spit out before he passed out.
"Accursed…brats!" Ganondorf cried before also passing out as well.
Marth and Pichu watched the two snore away from the roof. Satisfied with the turnout, they jumped off.
"Very impressive!" Marth said, inspecting the two. He pulled out some rope and began binding Ganondorf.
"I learned that one from Sheik!" Pichu said. He grabbed some rope and began binding Falcon. "So, what do we do with these losers?"
"How about you let me have them so I can beat the crap out of them?" A voice asked. Pichu took a battle stance. "Whoa! Calm down! It's me, Kirby!"
Sure enough, Kirby, with Jigglypuff by his side, flew up to the two.
"Heya Kirby!" Pichu said. "Heya Jiggly!"
"Is good to see Master again!" Jigglypuff said, running up to Marth. He patted her head as Roy appeared and jumped the fence with Dr. Mario on his back. His panting suggested that he climbed up.
"Roy! Dr. Mario! It's good to see you again!" Pichu said happily. He looked at the two of them. His eyes grew wide. "Whoa! Doc, what happened to your arm? It's…gone!"
"What goes on out here?" A new voice, this time coming from inside the temple, asked. It was D.K. "Well, well, lookie here! The prisoners, warriors, and stupid clone! I will finish you all!"
"Try it!" Roy said, taking out his Sword of Seals. Dr. Mario backed away as the others prepared for battle; Marth and Kirby pulling out their blades, Jigglypuff pulling out a microphone, and Pichu pulling out sponges.
"You make bad choice!" D.K. shouted, rushing toward the five warriors. The elements and sponges flew as the battle began.
Meanwhile, Peach, Zelda, and Samus were in their cell, trying to regain their lost energy. They could hardly believe what had happened.
"I swear I'm never having children!" Samus said.
The door, opened, and Mewtwo came in, with a look of disgust on his face.
"You think you're so good," He muttered. "How dare you! You gave me a child!" He pointed to the doorway.
It was indeed a clone of Link; however, it was seven years younger. The clone's eyes were wide, fearful.
"It wasn't out fault!" Zelda said.
"Your jewelry was supposed to give me Hyrule's hero's clone!" Mewtwo shouted. The three princesses backed away in fear. "You're not leaving until I get this right!" He stormed out of the jail.
"What do we do now?" Peach asked. "We might never escape! If only Pikachu could help us!"
"Let's not worry about that for now," Zelda said. She looked over to the clone. "Come here, young one. We won't hurt you."
The clone still looked scared, but it nodded and slowly wandered over to the girls.
"Can you speak?" Zelda asked.
"Y..yes," The clone said.
"We need a name for him," Peach said.
"My…my name is Link," the clone said. "Lord Mewtwo told me so."
"We can't call you Link," Zelda said. "You're too young. How about…Young Link?"
"Young Link?" The clone asked. "O…okay; you may call me Young Link."
Outside the temple, D.K. was bound right next to the sleeping Falcon and Ganondorf. Kirby was going mad with cheers.
"Yay! We won! We won!" He said.
"Okay, now for that password Pikachu gave us," Pichu said. He held out a piece of paper. "Pi Pi Pi Chu chu chu! Clone!"
A huge stairway had appeared, allowing people to climb up to the entrance of the Shadow Temple.
"Oh yeah!" Pichu cried. "I'm good! I'm good!"
Then a loud rumbling began. The six watched in horror as a HUGE army of clones appeared from the left and right of the temple.
"This isn't good," Roy muttered. "Looks like Mewtwo has an army waiting for us…"
"We have an army too, right?" Pichu asked.
"Yeah, but it's not here yet," Kirby said. "Oh man! It looks like this time this waiting will kill me! What do we do?"
Luigi: Oh no! What will they do! GASP!
Marth: Luigi…
Luigi: Don't worry! I took my medication!
Marth: I'm still worried. Anyway, please review!
