FAIR WARNING: This story's storyline goes along rather loosely, with a lot of events happening that barely move the plot along. I APOLOGIZE!!!!! I have a tendency to make my stories long and drawn out for no reason at all. So for those of you who keep with my story, THANK YOU. I really do appreciate it! I hope that I do have some fans out there who like my writing style, my OC's, and basically everything else in this story. Again, THANK YOU. *coughcough REVIEWS DON'T HURT EITHER coughcough* No reviews, no gain! 0_0 And in this chapter: the reason this fic is rated T. LANGUAGE! Who knew Jiggly had such a... colorful... vocabulary, to say the least.
Peach was always excited at the thought of meeting someone new, and today was no exception. Aramai seemed like Zelda in the sense that she'll listen to what you say, but not really be listening. But she wasn't like anyone else when it came down to fashion. She wore navy blue shorts, a plain red T-shirt, black sneakers (the right shoe had a hole near her pinky toe), a black hat (constantly worn in a sideways fashion), and her curly, brown, shoulder length hair in a ponytail. She didn't look like much of a girly-girl, but Peach would do many things to remedy that. Yes, many things.
"So, do you like, wear any dresses or like, skirts? Like, ever?" Peach asked, sounding like a valley girl.
"When I feel like it. Which isn't often," Aramai said, sounding obviously distracted by her thoughts.
"So like, do you wanna hang out with me and Zelda tonight? We're having a sleepover in her room tonight, and I like, reeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllllllllly want you to come."
"Just the three of us?"
"Yep! I like, invited Nana to come, but she like, wanted to bring Popo, but he's like, a boy and stuff, and it's like, a girl's only party."
"Well, can I bring some friends of mine? They're great fun at parties. I just hope you're really good at boxball and ping-pong."
"Like, what's boxball?"
"It's four-square. The concept is really simple, but it's rather hard. And fair warning: they're the queens of boxball, but I'M the ping-pong wizard."
"Well, we'll like, see what happens."
*Later that night, before the party*
"ARAMAI!!! Are you like, ready yet???" Peach asked, very frustrated that they were going to be late, because she was ALWAYS on time.
"I'M COMIN'!!!" Aramai stepped out of her room, dressed in her everyday apparel, carrying a pillow. "Well? Are we going or what?"
"Where are your friends? You said they'd be here."
"They're right here," she said, gesturing to her open door.
Four women walked out of the room into the hallway where Peach and Aramai stood. One of them had short, reddish-blonde hair, and wore a bandana to keep her hair back out of her face. She wore jean capris and a moss green T-shirt, and had somewhat of a condescending smirk on her face. Her name was Jen, often referred to as "Jenny". Another was a little shorter than Jen, with long, wavy blonde hair. She too wore jean capris, but wore a purple top with spaghetti straps. She looked nicer, and a hell of a lot more approachable than Jen did. Her name was Emily. The next had short brown hair, but it was up in a ponytail, also held back my a bandana. (A common trend, it seems.) She wore jean capris as well, but wore a moss green spaghetti strap top and a white zip-up hoodie. She was called Laura. The last of them wore her blonde hair up in a bun. She wore full length jeans and a white T-shirt with some unreadable black lettering on it. She was Beckie.
"These are my friends!" Aramai stated rather enthusiastically.
"From the looks of it, it's like, a good thing that I invited Samus to like, join us, because they like, look really good at this stuff."
Aramai smirked. "They are."
Jen smirked. "Come on, let's get outta here and get this party STARTED!!!!!" she then shouted in her heavy Scottish accent.
*One very long walk to Zelda's room later... about two seconds later XD*
"Zeldaaaaa!!!!! We're like, here and stuff!!!!!!" Peach announced, right in Zelda's ear.
"Really? I HADN'T NOTICED!!!!!!!!!!" Zelda shouted back in her face. Peach, who was as smart as a sack of hammers, just let it go.
"Well, I'll like, let Aramai introduce her friends to you guys!"
"Well, this is Jen, and fair warning, she has a Scottish accent, so if you can't understand her, you can just ask her to repeat it again, or ask me to translate, and same goes with Laura and Beckie, only they have British accents, so they might be easier to understand," Aramai said, motioning to them as she said their names. "And this is Emily. By my speech, she has no accent."
"Well it's nice to meet you all," Zelda said with a slight curtsey. "I would like to introduce myself. My name is Zelda, Princess of the Kingdom of Hyrule. You've obviously met Peach, and this is Samus. She's a bounty hunter."
"Hey."
"Hello there!"
"Heyo."
"Nice to meet you too," Jen, Beckie, Emily and Laura said, respectively.
*10 minutes later*
"YOU CHEATER!!!!!" Jen cried at Samus.
"I'M NO CHEATER, YOU ARE!!!!!!!!!!!!" Samus shouted back.
"CARE TO TAKE THIS OUTSIDE?????" Jen screamed in Samus' face.
"Ladies, please! Save it for the Brawl!!!" the others yelled at them.
"SHUT IT!" they both hollered back. The door swung open violently, and a very pissed off looking Jigglypuff stood in the doorway.
"PUFF PUFF!!!!! JIGGLY JIGGLY JIGGLY PUFF PUFF!!!!!!!! PUFF PUFF PUFF, JIGGLY JIGGLY JIGGLYPUFF!!!!!!!!!!!!" Everyone looked at the enraged pink puff in a confused manner.
"I think I can loosely translate it, but if you don't like language, you may need to cover your ears. It said, 'SHUT UP!!!!!! GODDAMMIT WHAT THE FUCK DO I HAVE TO DO TO GET SOME FUCKIN' DECENT SLEEP AROUND HERE?!?!?!?!? IF YOU FUCKIN' BITCHES DON'T BE QUIET, THERE WILL BE FUCKIN' HELL TO PAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!', more or less." Aramai stated rather calmly. Jigglypuff nodded.
"We'll keep it down. I promise," Aramai stated.
"Uh, yeah. We'll be quiet," the rest said, more or less at the same time. Jiggly left the doorway, and one of the hinges broke off of the door.
"That was scary," Samus said, as if she were commenting on the weather, or something more everyday than getting cursed out by a small pink puffball. Everyone muttered in agreement.
"LET'S TALK ABOUT THE GOSSIP IN THE MANSION!!!!!!!" Peach shouted, almost loud enough for the people on the other side of the Mansion to hear. Everyone jumped on her, duct taped her mouth shut, and put her in the hallway, shutting the door as fast as they could without having it fall off. The next thing they heard was an ear-splitting scream from Peach, and evil laughter from Jigglypuff. The door slowly opened, and Jigglypuff dragged Peach in by her hair, looking very pleased with herself. No one moved for a good 10 minutes after Jigglypuff left, and when they did, they did so with caution. They dragged Peach into the room, and shut the door, which finally fell off of both hinges. Everyone jumped when the door hit the floor, but they were relieved when they didn't see demonic red eyes at the end of the hall. They propped up the door, and revived Peach after half an hour. They would have feared brain damage, but no one thought it could get any worse than it already was.
"We can gossip, just as long as you keep it down!" Zelda whispered furiously.
"YAY!" Peach whisper-shouted.
*An hour later, after all of the "gossip news" is covered*
"So is there anyone in the Mansion that YOU like, Samus?" Peach asked, leaning farther forward with each word.
"No. For one thing, they're all spineless wimps, most (if not all) of them aren't attractive in any way, shape or form, or they have a negative intelligence quotient."
"You said 'most of them' aren't attractive," said Aramai with a mischievous look in her eyes.
"Yeah, so? Maybe some of them have a quality that you like in them."
"I think she likes Snake," Peach said with no hesitation. "I've like, seen you staring at him during our meals and stuff. You look at him like, so longingly. It's actually kind of like, sad." At this point, Samus was red in the face, out of embarrassment or anger, no one else knew.
"Peach, don't you think you're pushing it too far? Why don't we talk about something else now," said Zelda, who was trying to keep Samus from destroying her room.
"Yeah, like who Aramai likes!" Peach said as she bounced up and down from excitement.
"I don't like anyone."
"But it's blatantly obvious to ANYONE who's paying attention that you're like, in love with that Camillo guy." Aramai looked severely pissed off now, but said in the most level tone she could manage, "I. AM. NOT. IN. LOVE. WITH. CAMILLO!"
"Uh huh. Suuuuuuure you're not," retorted Peach rather sarcastically.
"I'M NOT!"
"Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight."
"I'M NOT!!!!!!!!!!"
"I don't believe you."
*SMACK*
"I'M. NOT. IN. LOVE. WITH. HIM. GOT IT?"
*twitch twitch* "O...kay..."
"Good."
*Later that night, on the roof of the Mansion*
"Why can't I just say it? I know in my heart of hearts that I do, but I just can't admit it out loud."
"We have more in common than you think, kid."
"SAMUS?! Oh my God, you scared me!"
"Sorry Aramai. This is where I come to think."
"What do you think about?"
"More often than not, I think about him. I'm almost positive that he doesn't like me at all, but a girl can always hope, can't she?"
"You mean Snake, right?"
"Yeah. You keep hoping about Camillo, don't you?"
"I can dream, but I can't hope. He's got a girlfriend who came with us to the Mansion. Her name's Columbia. I can hope all I want, but he'll never see me in a romantic way, and it kills me inside."
"How 'bout this... I'll find out how Camillo feels about you, and you'll find out how Snake feels about me! That way we both find out, but they don't have to know how we found out!"
"That has to be the best idea I've ever heard. Let's do it!"
