"You better have a good reason for waking me up" Dark Pit snapped.

"It's just…" Marth started.

"What?" Dark Pit groaned.

"I-I wanted someone to play cards with." Marth admitted.

The room was silent for a while.

"You woke me up… from the best sleep I've had in a long time… TO PLAY WAR?" Dark Pit screamed in anger.

Why are they so loud? Shulk thought while pulling the covers farther over his head. All I want to do is sleep until I have tutoring!

"No!" Marth yelled. "I woke you up to play crazy eights. There's a difference!"

"Why didn't you wake up Shulk?" Dark Pit asked.

"I tried to." Marth snapped. "He wouldn't get out of bed."

"Then let's get him out!" Dark Pit snarled.

Shulk gasped as Dark Pit grabbed a corner of the covers and began to pull.

"GET UP!" Dark Pit screamed while continuing to pull.

Shulk grabbed the covers and tried to pull them back over his head. "NO!" he screamed. "I have tutoring today! I need to sleep in!"

"No you don't." Marth said while grabbing the other end of the covers. "You can wake up as early as you want. It blows my mind you got a perfect score on the physics exam. Are you some kind of genius or something?"

"I TOLD YOU GUYS IT WAS PURE LUCK!" Shulk yelled. I can't let them know how easy the test was for me! If they found out… then the first thirteen years of my life will repeat themselves. I can't be bullied again I just can't!

"Seems awfully LUCKY!" Dark Pit yelled as he and Marth ripped off the sheets.

Shulk sat up quickly and looked outside the open window next to his bed. It was still dark outside, as a single star gleamed in the sky. Two white curtains with a gold trim flew inwards as he was struck with a gentle breeze.

"What time is it?" Shulk asked.

"Three o'clock." Marth said happily as he snuffled some cards. "Let's pass the time shall we?"

Time passed as the trio played war (because there were three people playing.). The result changed from time to time, until light from the window blazed into the room.

"Well!" Dark Pit said happily. "Guess that ends that! And don't think this is going to be a regular thing."

"But." Marth said looking somewhat hurt. "I had fun."

"I did as well." Shulk admitted. "I'll play with you again tomorrow if you want to."

Marth's eyes lit up. "Thank you." He breathed.

"Anyways." Dark Pit said angrily while flipping ocean his phone. "I'm going to get something to eat." He sighed. "What stupid video did Pit send me this time?"

"Let me see." Shulk said running next to Dark Pit's side so he could see the phone.

Check out this hilarious video I found! Pit texted. It will make you lol!

Dark Pit clicked on the URL and instantly a video of three whales with horns popped up.

Narwhals Narwhals singing in the ocean causing a commotion because they are so awesome. They sang.

"What. The. Heck." Marth said. "Does Pit send you videos like this all the time?"

Dark Pit nodded as he pushed the pause button. "First it was something about a duck who wanted grapes. Then it was this guy who was teaching his clones how to be evil. And yesterday it was something stupid about the sound a fox makes. Now come on. Let's get something to eat."

"Sorry guys." Shulk said. "I have to tutor today."

"First thing in the morning?" Marth asked. "That's hardly fair."

Shulk shrugged while he opened the door. "Better get it over with. I don't know any of that stuff anyways."

Shulk stepped outside into the main hall. Let me think. The library is about a mile away. Why is this mansion so bloody big? Guess I better eat and read on the way. Shulk grabbed out a pop tart and stuffed it in his mouth then grabbed a book and read it as he walked.

A couple of minutes later Shulk had arrived at the door to the library. It was huge and gold with decals to make it look grand. The second Shulk stepped into the library something buzzed and a red light flashed.

"HOLD IT!" Resetti (who was the librarian) screamed. "NO FOOD IN THE LIBRARY!"

"Whoops." Shulk laughed. "Sorry about that." He ate his pop tart quickly before stepping inside.

The library was as grand as its gate. It had gold walls, a sliver ceiling and floor and millions of books stacked on white bookshelves. And in the middle of it all was a gold desk and a black chair. The black chair spun around as Resetti was revealed.

"TUTORING IS IN THE BACK!" he screamed. "SHE'S WAITING FOR YOU AS WE SPEAK! JUST REMEMBER THE GOLDEN RULES OF THE LIBRARY!"

"What are the golden rules again?" Shulk asked.

Resetti slapped his head. "NO EATING! NO RUNING! NO KISSING! AND NO YELLING! BREAK ANY OF THIS RULES AND YOU GO IN THE SPIDER PIT FOR AN HOUR."

"If that was true you would be there all day." Shulk muttered to himself.

"WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY YOUNG MAN?" Resetti screamed.

Shulk blushed. "N-Nothing sir! Don't mind me just going to the back!" He walked towards the back. Whew. That was close. Resetti can be so unpredictable. Whose idea was it to make him the librarian anyways? Whoever it was must not be very smart. Now let's see this girl I'm tuto- woah.

Shulk stopped to see a girl, about the age of 16 sitting at a table. She looked a bit like Marth, no a lot like Marth. She looked at Shulk and he felt his heart stop.

"Are you supposed to be my tutor?" she asked.

Shulk nodded. Why is my heart beating so fast? And why I do I feel a desire to… kiss her. She's so beautiful… wait a second. Is this feeling I feel brewing. Could it be… love? Oh Bionis. Does this mean I'm in love with Marth? No, this feeling is different.

"Alright then." She smiled. "My name is Lucina. I'm here because I failed… badly."

"M-my name is Shulk." He stammered. "Don't expect anything from me. I only got a perfect score out of luck."

Lucina looked at him oddly. "You must be very lucky."

Shulk took a seat then nodded.

"So." Lucina said. "Let me get something straight. Siphon will fail to work if both its limbs are of unequal length?"

Shulk shook his head. "It actually happens when the level of the liquid in the two vessels are at the same height."

"Oh right!" Lucina laughed. "Are you certain that you passed out of luck? Because you've gotten every question right."

"Yes I'm sure!" Shulk said a little too loudly. "Besides how would you know?"

Lucina picked up an open textbook. "This is how."

"W-where did you get that?" Shulk demanded.

"I checked it out before hand." Lucina admitted. "I wanted to see how good you really where."

"So all this time… you where testing me!" Shulk exclaimed in shock.

Lucina nodded. "You passed with flying colors! I still don't know anything though."

"Alright." Shulk said. "Flip to page-"

"SHULK!" a voice yelled.

"HEY MR FANCY PANTS!" Resetti snarled. "DON'T YELL IN THE LIBRARY! AND WAY ARE YOU RUNNING! OH I'M GOING TO GET YOU GOOD!"

Shulk felt a jolt of surprise as Marth ran up to the table. "You have to help me!" he yelled as he grabbed Shulk's shoulders. "Pittoo is out of control!"

"Slow down. What happened?" Shulk asked.

"He's attack Pit for sending him another video!" Marth exclaimed. "This time it was about bears made out of gum!"

"Calm down Marth." Shulk cried. "I can't leave. I have to stay for the next 30 minutes."

"I agree with Shulk, Grandpa." Lucina said. "Calm down. You'll get yourself thrown in the spider pit!"

"WHAT!" Shulk screamed as Resetti grabbed Marth.

"I THOUGHT I TOLD YOU NOT TO CALL ME THAT!" Marth yelled. "I ADMIT YOU AND I ARE RELATED, BUT YOU CAN'T CALL ME THAT!" Marth yelled as Resetti carried him away.

"INTO THE SPIDER PIT!" Resetti screamed.

"You and Marth are related?" Shulk asked in shock.

Lucina laughed. "You couldn't tell? I'm his great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-ok I'm tired of saying great granddaughter!"

Shulk felt his heart began to sink. "Does that make you…?"

"A princess?" Lucina asked. "Yup. I might not look or act like it, but I'm the crown princess of Ylisse!"

"Great." Shulk choked. "Just great."

Lucina peered in close. "Are you OK?" she asked.

"Yes." Shulk lied. "I'm doing just great."

She's royalty? Damnit! Why did the first girl I ever felt truly in love with have to be royalty! Shulk thought angrily. It looks like I don't even stand a chance of winning her affection. Oh who am I kidding, I wouldn't have had one anyways. I mean look at me. My hair is sloppy, I'm fat and I'm a nerd! No one could love me even if they tried.
