Wait, It's My Birthday?

9:00 AM August 11, 2008

"Dude, did you hear?" Link said as he ran up to Pit, who was sitting on the rec-room's couch.

"Hear what?" Pit answered.

Link leaned over to Pit, and whispered, "It's RedHacker's birthday."

"It is?" Pit yelled in excitement.

"Shhh! We can't let him hear!"

"Why not? He would know. It's his birthday."

"We're planning a surprise party."

Pit resisted the urge to yell. "What's he turning?"

"I don't know."

"Well, what are we doing here?" Pit asked, "Aren't we supposed to be preparing?"

"Hell no."

"Well then-"

"Samus has it covered."

Pit sighed, "She is so perfect..."

"Yeah, whatever." Link rolled his eyes, "We have to get a gift." Link walked toward the door, he looked back and saw Pit still standing there, like an idiot. Link dragged him by his arm, "Come on, lover-boy."

"'Kay, so we're in charge of food." Sonic stood in the mess hall looking around for food.

"You're never going to find food like that." Shadow said from inside of the fridge, "You have to look!"

Sonic sighed, "Fine!" He opened a cabinet and found some cake mix. "Let's bake a cake!" He cried, in glee.

"You."

"Fine!" Sonic poured it in a bowl and started stirring. He stirred and stirred.

"You have to put eggs in, genius."

Sonic stuck his tongue out at Shadow, and reached for some eggs, which he quickly dropped onto the floor.

"Nice work, you just dropped the entire months supply of eggs."

Sonic glared at Shadow and pulled all of his spare change and counted it. He quickly ran out the door and toward Captain Falcon.

"What an ignoramus." Shadow continued looking through the refrigerator.

Lucas and Ness carefully held onto their gift, as if their lives depended on it.

"Don't. Drop it." Ness said strictly.

"Dude it's like an empty box. How could I possibly drop it?" Lucas asked, "And besides, if I do drop it, how what could possibly happen?"

"A lot of things."

"What?"

"Nothing. Let's just put this thing where it's safe."

"Why? Who could possibly want it?"

"Trust me. A lot of people want this."

They carefully rushed into their room, dismissing anyone who would ask about it.

"Okay, we're in lock-down. Show me what's in that box!"

Ness slowly opened the box, and an awing look came upon Lucas' face.

"No way..." Were the only words that could escape his lips.

Samus ran around the gymnasium, putting decorations everywhere. She had streamers, balloons, and not to mention, a giant sign that said "Happy Birthday" on it.

"Phew!" Samus rubbed the sweat off of her forehead, "He had better appreciate this."

She walked out of the gymnasium.

"Watching Samus work is making me thirsty!" King Dedede hopped off of the stage and walked out of the gym too.

"So, now it's just you and me." Red sat there, beside Luigi.

"Yep."

"Why aren't you doing anything for him?" Red asked.

"Am I supposed to celebrate he person who put me in this Hell-hole?"

"You make a good point, but if it weren't for him, we'd be fighting each other."

"We are anyway, it's just instead of a stage, we fight here." Luigi stood up, "And, he can make us do whatever he wants! I mean, he could make me go jump off a cliff right now!"

"Yeah. But he isn't."

Luigi got up and walked out of the gym as well.

"How do you make punch?" Sonic asked as he put the cake in the oven.

Shadow shrugged, "Because making punch is sooooo hard, right?"

"Just tell me."

Shadow stood up from where he was sitting.

"It's simple. You pour the crystals in the bowl and pour water in."

"It's gotta be more to it!"

"Nope."

Sonic poured the juice crystals in the bowl, "Like that?"

"Yeah." Shadow did a double take, "Why don't you make real punch?"

"Because it's haaard!"

Shadow sighed, "You're going nowhere in life."

Ness and Lucas hid their present under a tarp as they walked toward the gym.

"Do we really need a tarp?" Lucas asked, "Couldn't we just let everyone see it?"

"No." Was all Ness said.

"Err, okay."

They eventually reached the gymnasium. As Lucas opened the door, he spotted Red sitting on the stage. Lucas let go of the box.

"Hey, man. What's up?" Lucas asked.

Red sighed, "I don't have anything."

"Don't worry! I'll help you!"

Red smiled, "Do you know what he likes?"

"I know he's a huge Mother fan."

"Who's Mother?"

"Nevermind."

"Hmm... does he have a Wii?"

"Who doesn't?"

Red nodded, "Alright, so... what?"

I looked up at what I had created. It was, to say the very least, beautiful. The orchard in front had many different kinds of flowers. The mansion itself was bigger than any other I've seen before. At the front door stood a lone figure, clothed in red, he motioned for me to come in.

"Hey Mario!"

"Why hello there Mr..."

"Just call me Red."

Mario nodded, "Red, I would like for you to take a tour of our home."

I shook his hand, "Gladly!"

"My, you seem excited."

I looked to where the voice was coming from, when I turned around, I was surprised to see Wolf, looking triumphant.

"Wolf! It's such an honor to meet you!" I shook his hand also.

Wolf scoffed, "Yeah, right." He shot me a look and walked away.

"What's his problem?" I asked Mario.

Mario rolled his eyes, "He's... Wolf."

I nodded, "'Kay..."

"How 'bout he take you for a tour?" Mario asked.

"Totally!"

"Dude! He's here, he's here!" Falco was panicking.

"Calm down, man." ROB said as he spray painted himself golden.

"I don't have a gift, man!" Falco exclaimed once again.

"That's a problem."

Falco looked beside himself to see Jeff lying down on his bed.

"Get outta my bed!" Falco shouted as Jeff stood up.

"So what were you planning?"

"How about we all give him one gift, together." ROB asked.

"That's the best idea today!" Falco said as he looked at Jeff, "Start thinking of things, 'kay, Jeff?"

Jeff sighed, "Fine. But you guys'll have to do everything I tell you to, got it?"

The two nodded their heads, knowing that they'd regret it.

"And this is Toon Link, and Red's room." Mario held out a hand.

I walked up to Toon Link's bed, "Yeah! And this is where Toon Link's diary is..."

Mario raised an eyebrow.

"Err... nevermind."

"Anyway, let's keep going." Mario said as he made a motion with his hand.

I nodded, "Where to now?"

"How about the recreation room?"

"Lead the way!"

We walked for what seemed like an eternity.

"So, Mr. Red."

I turned my attention to Mario, "Yeah?"

"You're a big gamer?"

I rubbed my chin, "Well, I don't know about that. I mean, I created all of this, right?"

Mario nodded, "Well, not us."

I lowered my eyelids, "You know what I mean."

We finally reached the rec room, when we entered, I saw two people, one playing a video game and the other meditating.

"Lucario! Ike!" I yelled to them.

"Umm, who are you?"

I dug my forehead into my palm, "RedHacker?"

"Red- what?"

"RedHacker! R-e-d-H-a-c-k-e-r!"

"That's the strangest name I've heard." Ike replied.

I sighed, "I created this house."

"Really?" Lucario broke his meditation.

"Err, yeah."

"That's all well and good, but I'm losing, so if you'll excuse me."

I nodded, "Alright see ya!"

Mario and I walked out of the room.

"How come they don't know who I am?"

"Well, the way you made this, they had no idea what was happening, they were just dropped into the mansion."

"Are you usually this boring?"

Mario chuckled, "Not all the time..."

"Is everything in place?" Samus yelled to the other brawlers.

"Yup!"

"Got it!"

"Totally!"

"Good." Samus sat down on a chair, "I can't believe I did this alone."

The other brawlers were already sitting down.

"You guys are so lazy." Samus complained.

Suddenly, Ike crashed through a door, "He's here!"

"Didn't someone already say this?" Samus asked herself.

"Is everything together?"

"Yup."

"And he's staying for tonight?" Ike asked Samus.

"Yup."

"Where's he staying?"

"Yup." Samus shook her head, "Sorry. He is..." She thought for a moment, "Staying with Red."

"How ironic." Ike said calmly.

That night...

"I can't sleep." I told myself, "I wonder what's going on in the gym?"

I slowly crept down the hall.

"This hall is going on forever!" I quietly exclaimed.

I soon found myself walking into the mess hall. I walked through the large room and soon I saw a furry figure rummaging through the fridge.

"W-Wolf?" I stammered.

"Who's there?" Wolf looked back.

"It's me, Red."

"Which one?"

I rolled my eyes, "Just turn around."

Wolf turned around and saw me, he grunted. "Kid."

"Do you know where the gymnasium is?"

"You should know. You created this place."

"Why are you so bitter?"

"I didn't ask to be put here." Wolf replied coldly.

"Well, guess what? You are." I pointed at him, "So you really should just stop your bitching and make the best of it!"

Wolf grunted, "Whatever."

I walked back to my room where Red was, lied down and fell asleep.

4:30 PM August 12, 2008

Mario walked into my room and pushed me, "Get up!" He shoved me again.

I sat up on my bed, "What?"

"Come on, we're going to the gym."

"But it's only like-" I glanced over to the digital clock, "Four- four thirty?"

"PM." Mario informed.

"I can't believe I slept that long." I rubbed my eyes and stood up, "Lemme just put some clothes on..."

Mario nodded.

"Alone."

Mario nodded once more and walked out the door.

"He's coming, I can smell it." Wolf whispered to the other brawlers as he turned out the lights.

As if on cue someone walked in the door, "Why am I here again, Mario?"

"You'll see." Mario slowly reached for the lights and flicked them.

"Surprise!" The entire cast yelled.

"Gahh!" I jumped, it really was a surprise

The brawlers looked at me. I wore a green shirt, that in sloppy writing said, "It's only illegal if you get caught" I had was wearing black jeans, my stomach sagged over, clearly over weight.

"This is the guy?" Pit asked.

"Yeah, him?"

I nodded, "Yup!" I walked up to Link, "It's an honor to meet you, Link."

"Err... thanks?"

Ness held a box in his hands, Lucas quickly followed, "We got you a gift..."

"Really?" I asked, "What is it?"

The two boys opened the present, I looked in awe as the box said "MOTHER 3 Deluxe" though, it didn't look like a regular Mother 3 case, everything on it was English.

"Is this...?"

"Yup! It's in English!"

"But how did you...?"

"I did things I shouldn't have." Ness whispered.

"Err, thanks but, I don't wanna know."

"We got one too!" Falco came running towards me like an ecstatic child.

"Sure!" I said.

Jeff, was standing behind Falco, "Boy, have we got something for you!"

"Oh yeah? Like what?"

Jeff clicked a button on a remote, "You'd better get down..."

Suddenly an explosion was heard, we looked out the window to see what it was.

"Is that... ROB?" I asked in amazement.

"Yup." Jeff replied calmly.

"That- that's beautiful."

"Thought you'd like it." Jeff boasted.

Later...

"This was an amazing day, guys." I smiled, "Thanks... a lot."

"Hey, no problem! We enjoyed it too." Mario said.

"I have to go now, I've been up way too late."

"Alright, we'll see you..."

"Next year." I turned around and slowly started walking away, "This is a great day to turn thirteen..."

Link put a hand on my shoulder.

"I shouldn't have said that."

Link smiled, "Nope."

Author's Notes

I know, I'm selfish, but come on! This is my longest chapter, (figures) and it wasn't that bad (by the way, my birthday isn't actually 'till the twelfth). Also, I wont be here for a week, I'm going out of town, it's a trip to a cottage (nope, no computer). Anyway, on the lighter side of things, I've started working on an EarthBound Fan Fic, (well, not that excactly) it'll be adventurous, exciting, and dangerous, what I wanna know is if I should go through with it. I'll probably have the first chapter up by...I dunno, but it'll be up... when it is, gimme your opinions on whether I should or not. 'Kay?
