ROB's Despair

"Why am I here? Nobody likes me. I'm a friggin robot!" ROB said to himself as he opened the door of the janitor's closet. "They made me stay in the friggin closet, I could've gotten my own room but nooooooo I'm just a robot I don't have feelings! I won't care!"

"Issues?" A voice came from behind the opened door.

ROB closed the door to see who it was, he was surprised to see none other than Falco.

"Oh! Hello there how are you doing?" ROB put his unemotional voice on.

"'Can't fool me, I heard yeh talking," Falco said to ROB "If you hate the closet so much why do you put up with it?"

ROB sighed "Because I'm a robot, no ones going to listen to me."

"Heh, that's not true."

"What?"

"Mario will."

"Hmm… I guess we could go talk to him."

"We? No. You are going to talk to him."

"But-

"No buts. Follow me."

"So? Didja like the fight?" Pit said.

"Oh yes! It was spectacular!" said Samus.

The two were walking down the hall, talking about yesterday.

"Yeah, It took me forever to get those tickets," Pit gloated.

"Oh-oh really?" Samus asked, trying to hide the fact that every brawler got one.

"Well, I have to go meet Link he said he had something amazing to show me," Pit said as he walked off.

I can't wait to show Pit this. Link thought as he put the finishing touches on his machine.

"Alright, alright! I'm here! What do you want?" Pit said as he looked at the 15 text messages on his phone, all from Link.

"Ok, ok, ok, this is the most amazing thing you will ever see…"

"Is it amazing enough to warrant 15 text messages?"

"Yes."

"Then go on."

Link then unveiled the cloak covering his magnificent machine.

"What is it?" Pit asked.

"Well, this is the ATM!"

Pit frowned "ATM? Where do I know that from?"

"ATM stands for Assist Trophy Machine!"

"Umm… okay…"

"Remember when Shadow got turned into a trophy when Bowser went crazy?"

Psychedelic Flashback Time!

"Glad to be here people!" for the first time in years, Shadow seemed happy, maybe it's because he was drunk.

"Sweet! You mean I get this cool gun thingy?" Bowser said in amazement.

"Yess…" The voice sounded eerie, almost frightening.

Bowser trotted into the hall toward the party, gun still in hand, when a drunken Shadow knocked into him.

"S-sorry 'bout that," Bowser said, trying his hardest to be polite since it is a new guy.

"Yeah, y-you better be sorry!" Said the drunk black hedgehog, "Or I'll knock you up a notch!"

At this time Bowser was furious, he decided it was time to show this joker whose boss. He fired his laser "IMA FIRIN MAH LAZA!" and Shadow was turned into a trophy in an instant.

Psychedelic Flashback Time Over!

"No…" Pit said, confused

"Whatever, my machine can turn them back into people!"

"People?" Pit looked at his wings and hung his head, while Link threw the Shadow statue into the machines IN chute.

…

A few minutes later, after all of the sounds it was making and the screams coming from inside.

"I think it's actually gonna do something!" Pit exclaimed.

"Huh?" Link awoke to the sound of Pit's voice.

Soon the machine was making furious noises that awoke almost the entire mansion: Falco and ROB took a detour to see what everything was about, Sonic was there, Snake to, and Bowser.

"Looks like you got yourself a crowd," Pit said, as Link turned around.

"Oh! Hello everyone! What I have here is an ATM!" Link yelled to the crowd, "Assist Trophy Machine!"

There was clamoring among the bunch but eventually everything settled down when the ATM did. Although it didn't last for long as the machine started shaking and rumbling and soon a black furry thing flew out of it and onto the wall.

"Ugghh, what happened? I remember being invited to a party hanging out with some people then, nothing," Shadow said to himself, meanwhile Sonic was… shaking with glee, he ran up to Shadow and gave him an enormous hug.

"Get offa me!" Shadow yelled at the over excited hedgehog.

"S-sorry, but I missed you!" Sonic yelled back.

"So did I!" Bowser yelled after Sonic.

"EEK!" Shadow's girly scream surprised Bowser and he took the opportunity and bolted behind Link.

"H-help me! That monstrosity is going to kill me!" Shadow was scared, very scared.

"Bowser," Link said to the shelled behemoth, "Say you're sorry!"

"Don't treat me like a kid, I'm a grown koopa!" Bowser yelled back, "I've kidnapped more princesses than you have!"

"I don't want to…" Link then unsheathed his sword.

Bowser gulped, "Alright, alright! I'll leave the pipsqueak alone."

"Come on Rob," Falco whispered, "Let's find Mario."

ROB said nothing, he just followed.

"Guhh, I need to find someone to take the yard work job," Mario quietly said to himself, "But whom?"

Crash! The door of Mario's office burst open, he looked up to see everyone's favorite robot! ROB!

"Why hello there Rob, what can I do for you?"

A bird like thing poked out from behind ROB, he stood up completely straight while ROB was slouching.

"Stand up!" Falco whispered to ROB.

ROB suddenly uncurled his metal spine. "Yes, Mario it is me, Rob. I came here to ask-

"Say no more, you want a room? Don't you?"

"Err… yes!"

"I was waiting for you to ask, you see, you have always been very shy and I hoped you'd make a friend," Mario looked at Falco, "And I hoped right, this was a challenge of sorts, I'm glad you worked up the courage to ask me."

ROB smiled his nonexistent smile.

"So, I will be bunking you with…"

ROB was sweating.

"Falco."

ROB jumped in the air and hugged Falco, almost crushing his bones in the process. "Thank you Mr. Mario, thank you!" He finally blurted out, "Come on Falco! Let's go unpack!"

Falco smiled an uneasy smile at Mario.

"So, wait I understand why there are dinosaurs, and weird looking animals,"

"Pokemon"

"Pokemon, right, and not so weird looking animals but how can "Pokemon" talk?"

"Well, the rumor is that Mario gave all of them special pills to help them talk"

Lucas and Ness were having a talk on the roster as they walked into the rec. room, where Lucario was watching the Pokemon Battle Channel, and Popo and Nana were playing foosball.

"Hey Popo, Nana!" Ness said to his colleagues, "Say hi to our new friend Lucas!"

"Hi"

"Hi" Both of them said… at the same time.

Lucas walked over to the two, they were each too concentrated on the game to realize him.

"H-hello, how are you?" Lucas finally asked.

"I'm Popo."

"Nana."

"O-okay, umm… Popo? Can I play after?"

"Sure."

"K," Lucas then walked and sat beside Lucario, "So, you're a Pokemon?"

"Yeah, why?" Lucario answered the peculiar question.

"No, just wondering."

"Umm… Okay."

"So, wait a minute I've been a trophy for three years now?" Shadow asked.

"Yeah, basically," Sonic answered as they came to the door out the mansion.

"Well, I have to get out of here"

"You're not going anywhere…"

"What?"

"Yeah, were in like, an alternate dimension."

"Well, I'm going to bed."

"We'll have to talk to Mario about that."

"Who?"

"You'll see."

So they started walking down the grassy plains of the courtyard. They passed many people all of which Shadow could not believe who they were, they passed some kind of wolf thing who greeted Sonic, but just looked at Shadow awkwardly, they also passed a Japanese speaking pretty boy who was being followed by some guy who said he was a translator, he also had a giant sword. They finally found Mario raking up some leaves.

"Mario! Mario!" Sonic yelled as he ran toward the plumber.

Mario looked up from the leaves to see a blue and black blur.

"This can't be good," Mario said to himself right before he got smashed by a blue hedgehog.

"Hello," Shadow said to the plumber as he helped him up.

"Thank you, but who are you?" Mario answered to the gesture.

"I am Shadow The Hedgehog! The ultimate life form!"

"ahh, yes I remember you, come," Mario said as he lead Shadow inside, "You," He then pointed to Sonic, "Finish the yard work."

"Everybody, everybody, everybody livin now, everybody, everybody, everybody sucks!"

Link was blaring music to help drown out the screams his machine was making, this time he decided to try and re-create the Devil; he found the Devil trophy in a dumpster behind the mansion.

"This is gonna be so cool!" Said Link to himself since no one else is in the room

…

After a few minutes the machine spat out a purple figure, it had horns on its head and red bat wings. Link then grabbed a container and enclosed the small demon.

"Heh, I'ma show you to Mario… tomorrow," Link then laughed, a maniacal laugh.

Later that night, in Link's room…

"Hurgh!" the Devil lifted the case containing him and jumped off of the dresser he was on, he was about to leave when he spotted an ocarina, he then grabbed it and walked into the court yard where he played it all night long.

Author's Notes

Yeah, I know I took a long time again (I've got to get my priorities straight) but hey! It's here! So enjoy it! Also, you may be wondering why Link was excited about bringing the Devil back... Well, you see he suffers from a disease called "stupid" so yeah, and when Lucas asks how they're doing and they answer with they're names, that just proves how into the game they are. (See I can make an excuse for anything!) Guess that's it, goodnight.
