Wow, thanks for all the reviews. In this chapter, they come to a realization. No deaths.

Chapter 3: Awkward Situation

The ambulance arrived, with a bunch more police officers. The officers inside his apartment didn't even notice until they came out of the building with a plastic bag with some white powder.

Mario was in shock the whole time. He felt like collapsing. He made it back to the bowling alley, after the two officers and the construction worker were interviewed, just to see them exit the building.

Luigi, being the first to notice him, inquired. "What-a was the hold up-a for bro? I-a got your stuff here-a." Mario felt like he was dreaming. "He died." Roy had his mouth open. He asked in a small voice. "Captain Falcon?" "Yeah. A flowerpot fell when the ground shook because a wrecking ball fell." Y. Link only caught the last part. "Ironic, because the wrecking ball on my toy fell too."

He looked at the wrecking ball on the ground. He felt that it was of some significance, but shook it off. He looked outside and saw the shadow of a flowerpot falling and smashing into the ground. But when he looked up, it was sitting there, not even wobbling.

"Hey Mario, how did Falcon die again?" The Italian responded. "Well Roy, a wrecking ball fell from a nearby construction site, which made an unstable flowerpot fall over. The flowerpot had a crooked edge. The pot flipped over in midair and the crooked edge pierced his skull."

Roy suddenly exclaimed. "Then there's no doubt about it!"

Everyone looked at him as if he was crazy. After what seemed like forever, Roy began to explain. "There was an old legend. A plane crashed and all the passengers died. But, seven people got of because one had a vision. Then, they all died of freak accidents, each with a sign."

"A sign?" Samus inquired.

"Yes, a sign. Something that pointed out how they would die. Then, a year later, there was a pile-up on a highway with no survivors. But, a girl blocked off the road saving the lives of eleven people. And yet again, they all started to die."

"But then, there was a roller coaster's derailing. No survivors yet again, but ten people got off, and they all died. That was just as folk tale, just used to scare people, or at least that's what I thought."

"During a war, a couple of troops and I were travelling. But then, my girlfriend cried out about having a vision and how they would all die from an ambush. We tried to reassure her that we would be safe, but she didn't listen."

"So, five of us stayed behind. My girlfriend Lilina, my best friend Wolt, my guardian Marcus, Lance, one of my knights and myself."

"And, as she foretold, the ambush happened and they all died. She claimed that we cheated Death."

"But, alas, we didn't. Lance died. We thought that it was peculiar as all. But then Lilina died. So we got paranoid. But it didn't save Marcus. Wolt and I realized that we were dying in alphabetical order. And that I was next. I got electrocuted and died. But they brought me back somehow. But not before Wolt died. I was the only survivor."

"I then got a letter for a tournament and, well, you should know the rest."

The rest were speechless. Samus was the first to react. "So, basically we are being stalked by Death. Great."

Luigi then had his turn. "I gotta go. I got a new job. I'm a janitor at Mushroom Inc." He then left, but not before giving Mario his junk.

After Luigi was gone, Marth had a realization. "Wait, if we are dying in alphabetical order as well, Luigi would be next!"

Roy then tried to calm Mario down. "No, I don't think Death would do that. It's too predictable."

Mario cried out, obviously full of worry. "Then how come-a Falcon died first?"

"There could be many orders." Roy replied. "Alphabetical, in order we died on the stage, reverse order... hang on, who was first to leave the waiting room?"

They all thought hard, when Y. Link remembered. "Falcon did! He was carried out right before you were!"

"So, it could be that. The first one to die was Mario, and the last one to die was Peach, Marth and I, so it can't be those."

'But," countered Samus. "the order it had on the bulletin had Falcon first. (A/N: The order on the bulletin was the same Roy was remembering them in his mind. First chapter, each character with a nickname.)

"Well, we should be okay, we didn't see any signs. Everyone, look out for stuff that look peculiar, out of the ordinary." With that, they all parted ways.


"Ah-ha! I got it!"

Roy was scribbling down notes onto a piece of paper, trying to recall whatever would help them. He had three diffrent pages and a book. The first one said:

Captain Falcon

Peach

Mr. Game & Watch

Luigi

Mario

Samus

Shiek

Marth

Young Link

Roy

It was the order on the bulletin. The second one had the order they either were carried out, or left the waiting room.

Captain Falcon

Roy

Samus

Marth

Luigi

Mario

Shiek

Young Link

Peach

Mr. Game & Watch

The third one was the one he had finished first. It was alphabetical.

Captain Falcon

Luigi

Mario

Marth

Mr. Game & Watch

Peach

Roy

Samus

Shiek

Young Link

The book was the journal he had used to keep track of it all. It had the three different orders, the events and signs of Falcon's death, the premonition he had and something we didn't know.

Before I went to sleep the day before the battle, I looked out the window and it looked like the sun was out, getting closer and closer. I felt a movement and thought it odd that I felt this way. I shuddered and rubbed my eyes, but when I looked out, it was the moon. The sensation was gone, and I didn't think anything of it. It must have been a sign.

He stopped writing and decided to call everyone over for a meeting. However, he suddenly got tired. Thinking again, he chose to rest.

He laid down on his bed and felt the drowsiness multiply immediately. He saw an awkward shadow that somewhat resembled a computer, but was too drowsy to process it.

Too bad.

The desk he was using had a computer on it. He also had a bottle of water on the desk. Without a cap.


Samus rang the doorbell. Realizing how late it was, she thought he was sleeping. Not caring, she entered. She started walking up the stairs. She's been in his house before, while celebrating the start of the tournament. She realises how windy it was and noticed an open window opposite Roy's room. Without thinking, she opened the door.

The wind blew the bottle over. The computer turned itself on while keeping the screen off, trying to be discreet. The computer started to smoke while Samus woke Roy up.

Roy yawned before realizing what was going on. "Samus? What are you doing here? It's midnight."

Samus was panicking. "I saw one of those signs that you were talking about! I saw the shadow of a computer on the sidewalk!"

Roy started to sweat. "I saw that too! Right before I went to sleep!" He somewhat was sweating because of the shock, but also because the room started to heat up. "Do you feel that?" Slowly, they turned to the computer, which had just exploded. And a piece of the glass screen was heading to Roy's torso.
