Super Smash Bros adventures chapter 39
Mario and Palutena are on a mission helping Tails picking up metal from a junkyard. "Thanks Mario and … um I forgot to ask for your name." apologizes the twin tailed, yellow Fox.
"My name's Palutena." says Palutena.
"Sorry for not introducing myself. My name's Miles Prower or Tails." greeted Tails.
"Which name do you prefer?" asks Palutena.
"I prefer Tails." replies Tails. Sonic gave me this name when I first met him."
"Then Tails it is." says Palutena.
So how Sonic is doing? Is he too fast to keep up?" asks Tails.
"Yeah, but I beat him now." says Mario. Our wins are tied up. Seems Sonic got a lot stronger than Super Smash Bros Brawl's tournament."
"When Sonic visited here he told me that you gotten a lot stronger also." says Tails. He said that you're the strongest fighter in the Smash mansion. He also said you beaten everyone."
"Yeah, but I lose some times also." says Mario.
"But you got the most wins out of everyone." says Tails.
"Well I keep training and learn how my opponents fight." says Mario.
"I want to see you fight one day." says Tails. "It would be really exciting!"
"Why not come to the Smash mansion with us?" asks Palutena. "I'm sure Sakurai will allow visitors to come."
"Sorry, but I have a lot of work to do." says Tails.
"That stinks." says Mario. "When you come visit one time I'll make you some spaghetti." says Mario.
"Mario's spaghetti is the best!" says Palutena.
"Sonic also told me that too." says Tails. "He said that you're the best spaghetti maker."
Mario, Palutena, and Tails arrived at Tail's house, which is around a the beach, and looks like his head. "I didn't know you have a house." says Mario.
"Yeah since Sonic is always at the Smash mansion and Knuckles is protecting the Master Emerald, I decided to make a house and work on inventions." says Tails.
"It's a nice looking house though. It looks like a beach house." compliments Palutena.
"Thank you. I'll make you two some smoothies." says Tails.
So Tails let Mario and Palutena inside his house and place all of the metal down. Tails give a tour of his house. Mario and Palutena experienced some fancy machines such as robots and gadgets. "Wow look at all of these gadgets." says Palutena.
"These are my old inventions." says Tails. "I used them a lot when I was with Sonic and Knuckles."
Mario spots something he remembers. "You still have your Arm Cannon." says Mario, looking at the red and yellow like cannon. "Glad you still remember it. I upgraded it." says Tails.
Mario puts on Tail's Arm Cannon. "Now I'm like Mega-Man." he says, as he goes outside and shoots electric balls "This is really cool!"
"Be careful Mario." says Palutena, watching the red plumber playing around.
Mario charges up the Arm Cannon and shoot a Giant Energy Ball at a tree. Mario was really surprised of how powerful it gotten. "Whoa." he surprisingly says.
Tails takes away his Arm Cannon from Mario. "Please don't play with this." says Tails, as he puts it back in his house.
"You're in trouble." teasingly says Palutena.
Tails finishes making smoothies with one of his inventions, an automatic blender. "I Hope you like it." says Tails, as he gives the smoothies to Mario and Palutena.
Mario got a strawberry smoothie and Palutena got a pineapple smoothie. Mario and Palutena took a sip and their eyes sparkle. "Delicious." Mario and Palutena both said at the same time.
"I'm glad that you like It!" happily says Tails.
"Make some more please." says Mario, who finished his glass. "Of course." says Tails. Have as much as you want." says Tails.
So Tails made more smoothies for Mario and Palutena. Mario and Palutena finish all of the smoothies Tails made for them. "Wow, you two finish ten smoothies each." surprisingly says Tails.
Suddenly, Palutena burped so loud that the windows crack. "Sorry." apologizes Palutena as she turns red.
"Nice burp." compliments Tails.
"Never expected a Goddess to do that." says Mario.
"This what happens when you see Pit burp a lot." says Palutena.
"How's everyone here, Tails?" asks Mario.
"Like I said about Knuckles he's protecting the Master Emerald, Amy is hanging out with Cream, Shadow is… I actually don't know where he is, and Eggman is doing Eggman things." replies Tails.
"Is this Eggman guy the villain in this world?" asks Palutena.
"Yep, he always tries taking over the world, but we always stop him." replies Tails.
"Does he look like an actual egg?" asks Palutena.
"Yeah!" replies Tails.
Tails got a picture of him and shows it to Palutena. When Palutena first saw the picture she burst out laughing. "He does looks like an egg!" cries Palutena, as she continues laughing.
"He's no man to make fun off." says Tails. "He makes a lot of powerful robots."
"He also made a robot that looks like Sonic." says Mario.
"That sounds cool." says Palutena.
"I know it's weird asking this, but are you two dating?" asks TailsMario and Palutena both start turning red. "No. We're just friends." replies Mario, waving his hands at Tails.
"You two look like you're having a good time." says Tails." More than Peach actually."
"Well Peach has someone to marry." says Mario. "Right now I'm getting use to it and move on."
"Sorry for asking." Tails apologizes.
"It's ok." says Mario.
"I think you two will make a cute couple." says Tails. "Why don't you two go on a date?"
Mario and Palutena both turn redder. "Umm, Tails, can we have a ride on one of your inventions?" asks Palutena as points at a blue and yellow looking helicopter with legs and hoping to dodge his question. "Sure. Lets go." replies Tails. So Mario and Palutena get into the Cyclone and Tails fly around in his cyclone.
After a while, Tails lands the copter and Mario and Palutena exit after him.
"Thanks for the ride and smoothies, Tails." thanked Mario. "I think it's time to head back now."
"No problem. It was nice meeting you, Palutena." says Tails.
"It's nice meeting you too, Tails." says Palutena, brushing her wind-swept hair out of her face. "Lets go on another ride next time!"
"I'll modify my Cyclone and make it faster." Tails offers, fiddling with a few pieces of Eggman's scrap metal.
"We'll be looking forward to it." says Mario. Mario and Palutena waves bye to Tails and went inside the Smash portal.
"You know what, Palutena?" asks Mario, as they rest in the mansion's living room.
"Know about what?" asks Palutena, leaning back on the couch.
Mario wrings his hands, trying to come up with what to say. "A lot of people think that we're dating," he starts off.
Palutena blushes. "W-Why do you think that?" she asks, wondering where this odd conversation is heading.
Mario rests his arm on the edge of the couch and looks directly at Palutena, mentally wishing to the Stars for the strength and courage to continue with what he wants to say. "Tails asked us, Pit, Link, Fox, and Samus thought we're dating, and the penguins from Snowman Island asked us." He took a deep breath. "It seems like… maybe… we should get together."
The words tripped over his lips, but at least he had gotten them out, though he wasn't sure if it was the best thing.
Palutena bright even redder. "Really?" she asks, sitting up, and looking for any signs of a joke.
Mario's heart jumps inside him with fright. His head screams at him to run while he can. What is he thinking? He can't do this to her! He can't! She deserves better! Doesn't she? There's no way he's ready for this!
He takes a shaky breath and speaks. "Uh- I'm just playing with you. They think we're dating because I'm always with you. You're not into this kind of thing right?" he asks with a shaky laugh.
Just like that, Palutena's spirits plummet faster than Tails's Cyclone. "Yeah, I'm not into this kind of thing." She replies bleakly.
Mario clenches his fists tightly to stop his body from trembling with nervousness. He stands. "Well I'm going to my room. Link, Pit, and I are going to have a Mario Kart tournament. I'll see you tomorrow, Palutena." says Mario.
"Oh, okay. Bye Mario." says Palutena. She gets up from the couch and walks to her room, her eyes stinging and her heart heavy.
The minute Mario is alone and he gathers his wits, he face-palms. "I'm such an idiot. Why did I say that? Am I that scared to tell Palutena that I like her?"
Little does he know that he won't get another chance for a long, long time.
