Chapter Three: Infection
"I'm getting out of here!" shouted Link, walking towards Fox's room.
"I think that's going to be pretty hard," laughed Fox, with an evil grin on his face, eyes red, "The door is locked, you and your friend are trapped here!"
"Damn it," said Link, running back towards Bowser's room.
"Falco, help!" screamed Link.
"I need a little help as well!" shouted another voice, from the next room.
Link ran into Donkey Kong's hospital ward, noticing Donkey Kong, pinning Falco up to the wall.
"Okay!" said Link, picking up his sword.
As Link charged towards Donkey Kong, sword high in the air, Link felt a giant force throw him back, like an invisible punch.
"Hey Link!" said Mewtwo, laughing evilly, "Want to play?"
"Crap," said Link, pinned up against a wall from Mewtwo's telekinesis.
"Are you going to kill us as well?" asked Link, scared.
"Not directly," said Fox, in a suave voice, walking into the room, "We're going to tie you down, and let the water do the work. After all, it's only going to be about fifteen minutes until the water reaches us!"
Mewtwo and Donkey Kong laughed evilly.
"Why can't you just kill us now?" asked Link.
"Why should we?" asked Bowser, walking into the room. "After all, we want you to become one of us! It would be such a waste killing you two! You, Falco and Link, are brilliant fighters! We could use people like you!"
"How can we just suddenly become mentally deranged like you guys?" asked Falco, still pinned up to the wall.
"How can't you?" laughed Fox, charmingly.

Marth woke up in a hospital room, strapped to the ground.
"Why am I tied to the ground?" asked Marth.
Marth looked at Roy, directly next to him.
"Roy, are you awake?" asked Marth, looking at Roy, who was also tied to the ground.
"Yeah," said Roy, restless. "Why?"
"Why are we tied up?" asked Marth.
"I don't know," said Roy, "Last thing I remember was the water coming through the window. Now we're here, tied up!"
"Hey, is that Ganon over there?" asked Marth.
Roy looked over at the other side of the room.
"Is he- is he dead?" asked Roy.
"Roy, grab that gun, and shoot me," said Ganondorf, "They got me with the water."
"Why would I shoot you though?" asked Roy.
"Before I hurt anyone else," said Ganondorf desperately, despite his homicidal ways and incentive to hurt anyone at any given chance, "It will be good for everyone."

"I still don't get it, how can we become like you?" asked Link, pinned up to the wall, "How can we just suddenly go crazy?"
"Guess," said Bowser, grinning, "What did we all touch?"
"The- the water?" asked Falco.
"Yes, now you're on the right track!" said Fox, grinning.
"With the chemicals I put in, everyone is going to become like us! Better people!" said Mewtwo, laughing evilly.
"Wait, I thought Master Hand just accidentally left rat poison," said Link, "Are you saying that you tampered with the rat poison, to make people go crazy when they touch it?"
"Yep," said Mewtwo.
"Then how come I'm not infected already?" asked Falco.
"Well, the infected water only spread to a small portion of people!" said Mewtwo, "But by now, all of the water is infected!"
Mewtwo grinned evilly. "Which means anyone who just happens to accidentally touch the water becomes infected. Anyone who drinks a cup of water from the water supply, anyone who washes their hands, will turn into us!"
Mewtwo laughed again.
"Why are you doing this?" asked Falco, "Are you the one who is responsible for this?"
"Yes, I'm responsible, I'm the mastermind," said Mewtwo, "And why? I'm just bored? I'm possibly homicidal, want to see everybody kill each other?"
"But, but you know you'll never get away with this! We'll stop you!" said Link, angrily, "We are good fighters!"
A loud, shooting noise was heard from a few rooms away.
"One of your so called, 'Good Fighters' just was shot," laughed Mewtwo,
"But we won't fall for any little tricks! They aren't going to let themselves get that easily killed!" said Link.
"But they'll never know what hit them," laughed Mewtwo. "Fox, Bowser, you go and mix with the others, and either kill them, or make them touch the water!"

"Hey Ness," said Bowser, walking into the main hallway.
"Bowser, you recovered! That's great!" said Ness, happily.
"Uh… but Dr. Mario gave me this medicine… can you go into the bathroom with me, and check that it's the right one to treat… er… pains?" asked Bowser, trying to sound as convincing as he could.
"Okay," said Ness.
Ness and Bowser walked into a nearby bathroom, Bowser locking the door behind him.
Said Ness, "So what medicine did you say you were-"
Bowser picked up Ness, and rammed his skull into the mirror.
"What a crap lie," said Bowser, "I'm still surprised you fell for it."
Bowser left Ness' body there, left the bathroom, and put the 'Under Maintenance' sign on the door.

"Okay, DK, tie them to the ground, and then get out of here, the water's coming!" said Mewtwo, walking out of the hospital ward.
"Damn it!" said Falco.
"Yes, and it appears it has been confirmed," said Mewtwo.
"Everyone!" shouted Master Hand from outside, "The water is starting to rise! Get upstairs to the second floor!"
"See you afterwards," said Mewtwo, walking out of the room, "And please do help me kill the others once you are infected."
Mewtwo turned off the lights, and along with Donkey Kong, walked out.
