Fighting Confusion

Sonic whizzed through the lunchroom, knocking several brawlers over.

"Hey, jerk-wad!" Olimar yelled at the speeding hedgehog.

Shadow rolled his eyes, he threw his hand out. Sonic stopped in his tracks.

"Hey! Put me doooown!" Sonic complained.

Shadow sighed, "What are you doing?"

"Running really fast!"

"Yeah, but why?"

"Well..." Sonic thought for a moment, he looked as if he was straining his brain, "I don't really know..."

Shadow pinched the skin above his nose. "Whatever." Shadow waved his hand and Sonic plummeted to the ground.

Sonic scowled at Shadow and sped off.

Olimar turned to Shadow, "How did you do that?"

Shadow grinned, he pulled a blue emerald out of his furry pocket, "Chaos Emerald, swiped it when Knuckles wasn't looking."

"Fire!" Fox shot up into the sky, and burst into flames.

"I'm seriously confused today." The Quarter-Sized Captain said to himself.

"I bet you're wondering how I did that." Fox gloated.

"Did'ja figure that out all by yourself?"

"Well actually, yeah!"

"Should've known."

Olimar kept walking, he was just having the weirdest day. The psychic hedgehog, the flaming fox. Something actually exciting was happening around here!

Wario was eyeing the bowl of cake on the coffee table. He could eat it, but Jeff and Rob were there, he'd have to share... unless he could get into the bathroom.

"Hey– guys?" Wario asked.

"Yeah?" The answered together.

"I- I have to go to he bathroom."

"Err... okay." Jeff raised an eyebrow.

"Okay I just- WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?" Wario screamed. Both Rob and Jeff looked out the door. When they looked back, Wario was gone.

"Wario?" Rob yelled around the room.

"Yeah?" A voice was heard coming from the bathroom.

"What are you doing?" Rob yelled against the door.

"Nothing!"

"Are you masturbating?"

"No!" Wario thought for a moment, "Err... yes! Don't come in!"

Jeff, wanting to embarrass Wario, opened the door. He was surprised to see Wario with no shirt on and cake all over his face.

"Wha..." Jeff took in what he had seen, "SWEET JESUS! MY POOR EYES!" Jeff quickly turned around and practically flew out the door.

Rob raised his digital eyebrows, and looked inside the bathroom, "Hey Wario." He casually said, he then walked out the door.

Mario idly sat at his desk and threw a tennis ball across the room, it bounced off of the door and flew back to him.

Knock! Knock!

"Yeah." Mario said, it sounded more like a statement than a question.

"Can I come in?"

Mario threw the ball against the door once again, "Sure. Yoshi."

Yoshi burst the door open, he was greeted with a tennis ball.

Mario smiled sheepishly, "What do you need?"

Yoshi shook his head, and said in a squeaky voice, "I need to talk with you."

Several hours of Yoshi pouring his soul out.

"...And most of all, no one pays attention to me."

Mario yawned, "I'm paying attention right now."

"Yeah, but you're Mario. I mean, like, everyone else! Hell, even the author ignores me! I've been in, what three scenes?"

"Are you counting this one?"

"Anyway, Mario. Thanks for letting come in."

Mario shrugged, "It was nothing."

The boy rolled down the grass hill.

Faster! Faster!

He suddenly felt a sharp pain in his back.

Huh? What was that?

He looked behind him. At his shock he realized he had rolled right into a tree.

"Ouch." Ness said to the boy.

"Yeah, that's exactly what I was thinking." The boy's blonde hair flowed with the wind, as he stood up, "Anyway, what'd you want?"

"Oh, yeah!" Ness pulled a paper out of his shorts pocket, "Check it out, it says: "We heard about your win against Mario. Bring a friend and meet us at the second arena." What do you think?"

Lucas pointed to himself, "You- you want me to fight with you?"

Ness shrugged, "Yeah, that's kinda what I was implying."

Lucas's stomach started the turn, "Does it have a time?"

"Yeah, it says: "6 PM."

Ness looked up from his note and Lucas was gone.

"You think he took it?" Fox asked as he reserved the second arena.

"Why wouldn't he?" Ganondorf shrugged, he slapped Fox's back, "There's no way he could've beaten Mario."

"Yeah, you're probably right." Fox rubbed his own back.

By the time 6:00 PM rolled around, everyone had heard about the showdown. Lucas was shaking in his shoes, he'd been training all afternoon. But now... well, he wasn't sure.

"Nervous?" Ness startled Lucas.

Lucas sighed, "Yeah, I can't believe so many people showed up, I mean, it's just a friendly match, right?"

Ness grinned, "That's what any old person would think, but it seems Fox and Ganondorf are pretty intent on beating us."

"It can't be that important... can it?"

"It indeed can." Ness sighed, "Come on."

Ness's hyper grin is gone, it's too bad these guys are so serious. "Maybe it'll be fun."

Ness was hit in the face with a smart bomb, it didn't explode, he took this opportunity and whipped it back at Ganondorf.

BOOM!

Ganondorf flew trough the air, out of range.

Meanwhile, Fox dashed into Lucas, he fell off of the edge, he hit himself with a Pk Thunder, he smashed into Fox, who grasped Lucas on the head, trying not to let go.

Ness ran and kicked Fox in the head, he crashed through the barrier of the stage.

CRASH!

The fighters walked out of the arena.

"...And remember when I hit you with the smart bomb?" Ness gloated.

"Yup. And when I hit you with the warlock punch?"

"My jaw'd like to forget."

"Hey, look! MetaKnight!" Fox yelled as MetaKnight was trying to escape.

"You wanna play with us?" Lucas yelled.

"No." MetaKnight muttered.

"What?" Fox yelled.

MetaKnight rolled his eyes and walked over to the four, "No."

"What?" Fox leaned over.

"No!" MetaKnight yelled.

"Oh, come on!" Ness said, he pulled Lucas in front of him, "You can fight Lucas! Just for fun."

MetaKnight sighed, "Fine."

MetaKnight stood in the white room, he was completely focused.

On the other side of the room, stood Lucas, he was whistling, and humming cheery tunes.

METAKNIGHT!

MetaKnight walked into the circle that was carved in the floor.

LUCAS!

Lucas skipped... and whistled his way to the circle.

FINAL DESTINATION!

"It's always Final Destination, isn't it?" Lucas complained.

The white room morphed into a single large blue platform, in the background, it seems the platform was travelling through space.

"Okay, let us fight." MetaKnight announced.

"Pretty serious, eh?" Lucas taunted.

MetaKnight charged at Lucas who shielded, he rolled behind MetaKnight and hit him with his stick. MetaKnight recovered from the blow and hit Lucas with his sword, Lucas jumped into MetaKnight, but instead of attacking, he dodged the inevitable attack, he used Pk Love on MetaKnight, who was launched into the air. MetaKnight drilled down hitting Lucas on the top of the head, Lucas got up and launched a flurry of Pk Fires. MetaKnight was wounded. Lucas ran into finish it, but MetaKnight caught him off guard, Lucas was launched far across the stage, he held his head and a blue sphere rocketed out of it, he guided it to MetaKnight, he wasn't expecting a retort so fast, MetaKnight was launched off of the stage, he quickly let out his wings, but Lucas stood on the edge. Lucas jumped off of the stage and kicked MetaKnight off of the edge

CRASH!

"I- I can't believe you beat me. I am so strong. What is your secret?" MetaKnight was flustered.

"What secret? I just enjoyed it, that's all." Lucas said.

The two walked out of the room.

Fox made a siren sound, "We, woo! We, woo! Cheesy moral alert!"

Ness pushed Fox out of the way, "That was amazing! You never told me you could fight so well!"

"I didn't know."

Ness shrugged, "You, my friend, deserve a hamburger. Come on." He made a motion with his hand.

"So, did you realize that the conversation before the four player battle was longer than the actual battle?" Link asked.

"I don't like to think about that kinda stuff, this has been the first really weird day." Olimar answered... I think.

"Dude, where have you been the last eleven chapters?"
