Okay! The second chapter is up. Just to let you know, I wrote this chapter right after I finished the first! I was so bored waiting for my friend to edit the first chapter, so I decided to get started on the second which I quickly finished because I was really happy and anxious to write this chapter. So when my friend finally was able to come over my house she was able to edit both chapters. Oh yeah, don't flame on me on stupid stuff like pairings or whatever. And thank you to all the reviewers who reviewed the first chapter! I am really happy that you reviewed it! I hope you will enjoy this chapter as much as you enjoyed the first! Once again, I thank Royal Kenya, halomasterchief, and The Princess Zelda for their stories inspiring me to write a SSBM fan fiction. Without their existence, I would have never been able to come up with an idea like this.
NOTE: This chapter has been reposted. I felt that as if this chapter wasn't as affective as it could have been. I really feel that I needed more emotion in the characters, because they were all dull like robots. These smashers are human for God's sake! Well… Most of them are. I didn't properly show the emotions of either Link or Zelda, so I really wanted to show it now. I know it's longer, but I feel it's definitely more emotionally affective than the chapter that I posted here.

Chapter 2 - Fragile Woman
The princess of Hyrule slowly opened her eyes to the world. Sunlight was streaming in from her window and hit her face. She yawned, slowly getting her body up and pulling off the covers of her soft bed. Princess Zelda looked at her friend who was sleeping in her bed near hers. She saw her friend, Samus Aran, sleeping soundly and looking peaceful in her sleep. Zelda smiled at her friend and decided to let her rest for a couple more hours. For a moment, Zelda tried to remember what happened last night. As she thought of it, she couldn't remember at all. What had happened to her? All she remembered so far was that Samus had left the room to get a drink of water. Zelda tried to remember what happened after that. Was she somehow able to sleep before Samus came back into the room? There was nothing in her head. It was empty. Blank. As if all the information in her head was gone. Her memory of what happened last night was as hallow as a straw. It was just her intuition, but something was definitely wrong. As she tried hard to remember what happened the night before, she could only see darkness, and nothing else. She was missing something in her memory, but for now she would forget about it because she knew it probably wasn't important. The young and beautiful Princess Zelda got off her bed and went into the bathroom to freshen herself up.
Link spent the whole night thinking about what Samus had said to him about Zelda. Those words had stung him, as if a great big yellow hornet flew up to him and plunged his stinger right in Link's heart. Was all of it true? Did he really care about Zelda more than Samus? He continued to question himself, becoming frustrated on what was true love and what was lust. Link spent the whole time in his room pacing around, with the light on. Roy complained to Link that he should turn off the light because it was time for him to sleep, but Link paid no attention to him because Roy then somehow fell asleep. Link paced back and forth in his room. He wanted Samus to be the one that he could be with... No, Zelda... No, Samus... His mind kept on arguing, and felt as if his mind was being ripped apart with his confusion of the two women that he cared about. Still trying to find the right answer to his question, Link decided to shut his eyes for a moment. He envisioned both females, standing in front of him with all these qualities that he wouldn't be able to find in anyone else.
He thought about Samus. She was brave, daring, and dangerous. Her body was perfect and her face was beautiful. He started to think of any physical flaws. There was nothing that was unattractive about her. However, there was something that was pulling him back about his feelings for her. There was something hidden about Samus Aran. She refused to open up towards him at times, whenever he asked her about her past. Something that was built around her, as if a heavy, metal fortress that was carefully guarding her mind. He felt as if there was some arrogance to her personality, and to be completely honest, Link could not sometimes stand the arrogance of the famous bounty hunter. Another trait that Link found that he could not stand was that she seemed to be cold hearted at times. She would sometimes be so bold to state her opinion of something, and not care too much about how she hurt the person after that. Those were traits about Samus Aran, which he found he could never accept.
He paused for a moment, as his mind switched to the thought of Zelda. She was pretty, wise, caring, kind, and patient. Whenever he thought of Zelda, he would always see her smiling at him. She was the one he could always talk to about anything that was bothering him. She was loyal to him in his darkest moment when he thought that he would be able to beat Ganondorf in the Melee tournament and told him to never give up hope. There was a specific characteristic of Zelda Harkinian, which made her so… different from other people. Despite the fact that she was so naïve, non-athletic, innocent, and at times, vulnerable, Link found something gorgeous about her personality. The warmness and reassurance in her smile was something that he identified as one of her most beautiful traits about her.
Link finally realized what his true feelings were. He did want Samus as his girlfriend, but for nothing more to just rip her clothes off and have sex with her. He wanted to take her to bed, and wanted her to be every thing he wanted in a woman for physical looks. He wanted to dream of having a woman that had the face of beauty and perfection, without any flaws, and whisper tenderly in her ear how much he cared for her. If he continued to dream about the most perfect female on earth, he would discover later, that he was not actually feeling love. It would be something more disgusting, and putrid as poison. Something worse than love. Zelda was the one he wanted the most. The one and only person who understood him and loved him for what he was. Whenever he was with the future queen of Hyrule, he felt… warm, safe, and open. He felt comfortable to confront her for any advice, for it was she, whom he talked with about his infatuation for Samus. When he was with Samus, he felt as if he were to change the way he talked, acted, and looked in order to impress her. If he wanted to know what real love was, he would have to be aware, that you don't change how you act around them.
"Zelda..." Link thought to himself. That person who cared for him and wanted to be with him more than anything. He thought of her once more. Her golden silky hair, her sapphire eyes, and ivory skin. "I never noticed how she has grown up into being such a pretty woman. No... Pretty isn't the word to describe her anymore. She was pretty when she was young, but now she's beautiful. Beautiful like when the sun hits the earth at the crack of dawn."
Link thought back with all the memories he had with Zelda. The times he laughed with her, the times he saved her from Ganondorf, were all precious to him. All the days he had spent with Zelda were one of the most precious things on earth to Link. He was always happy when ever he was with Zelda; there would be never ending happiness if he could stay by the princess of Hyrule's side forever. If he lost Zelda forever, the Hero of Time would never be able to find love ever again. She was all he had left. There was no one else in the world he felt that had given as much love and support as Zelda did. Link couldn't believe that all this time when he had thought he was in love with Samus Aran, when the woman that he truly loved was standing there right in front of him. He felt like a fool. He should have known earlier. He was an idiot for not knowing his true feelings for Zelda and shouldn't have kissed Samus. Now Zelda was hurt from what she had seen last night with Link and Samus.
"I'll tell her..." Link said softly to himself. "I'll apologize to her for what Samus and I did together, and I'll let her know how I really feel about her now."
At nine o'clock am, the beautiful bounty hunter finally woke up. She slowly opened her emerald eyes to the world like she did every single day of her life. Samus Aran wondered what the world would hold for her today. She was eager to start the day with her friends and battle other smashers on the battlefield while she made money doing something she loved to do. Her mouth was dry, as she felt the bitter, disgusting taste in her mouth that she always tasted whenever she awoke from her deep slumber. Samus was still drowsy and groggily from her sleep when she looked over to Zelda's bed, but she saw no one was lying on the bed. Samus blinked a few times in shock wondering why Zelda may have gotten up so early. Then it was all coming back to her. Link had kissed her the other night and during that kiss Zelda had walked in on them. Samus closed her eyes in disgust when she realized what she had let Link do to her. She felt as if everything that happened the other night was all her fault for not stopping Link any farther. She was a little selfish to try to put herself first, for experiencing a kiss from a man for the first time.
"Ugh. She now hates me for what I let Link do, so now I can't talk to her about it! Shit, I have to fix this up somehow. I wish that she would let me tell her what actually happened instead of avoiding me. But it's a little weird. Whenever something happens between me and her, she never avoids me, but she always goes up to me and demands the truth. Hmm... I guess this event between Link and I really damaged her emotionally." Samus thought slowly.
Samus sighed, knowing what she had to do. She had to find Zelda as soon as possible and explain everything to her, and apologize for her actions. There was a heavy weight in her chest, as she knew that what she did last night was wrong. If anything, she didn't want any conflict between her friend, what so ever. Zelda was a sister and a mother to her. If there wasn't any sign of forgiveness from Zelda, she could understand. It would be painful to know that a loved one close to you, could never forgive you, but Samus would have to bear with the pain, if there was any.
"I just hope that she will forgive me for what I did," Samus said to herself, alone in her room.
Link, the Hero of Time, got himself dressed and freshened himself up by taking a shower. There was something wrong with everything he had done from the night before, and he planned to fix it. He would do whatever it took to make sure that he would feel the warmth and comfort from the princess of Hyrule for his sin. He wondered, however, would it be a sin to love a woman who is of higher status of him? He continued to think more about Zelda and who she was. Even if Zelda was a peasant, he would find everything that he loved about her, still attractive. There was still a topic in his head that he wouldn't let go. His mind was still pondering from what had happened last night, as water splashed on his body.
"I need to find her and tell her what my feelings are. I know that she would definitely forgive Samus for what she's done. She didn't really do anything to me, except show me what were my real feelings for Zelda were. But then what if she never forgives me? That would be horrible!" Link narrowed his eyes in determination. "Okay, first thing I need to do: find Zelda and apologize for what Samus and I did together last night. Second thing: tell her my real feelings for her. Third thing: hope and pray that everything is alright after doing those things." Link thought.
More water fell on his body, as he felt all the filth from his body come off. Before he took a shower, he felt his soul was dirty and impure after kissing Samus. He knew it wasn't love. At the time, he didn't want to accept it for some reason. Perhaps it was because Samus had an ideal female body that most men would find impossible to not be attracted to. Knowing all the flaws that Samus had in her personality, he recognized in his heart that he would never be able to accept Samus for the person she was. After taking a nice shower, he felt once again as if all the disgusting grime on his soul had been washed away and now his soul was pure as ever. His body felt a lot better now, knowing all the stress had washed down the drain of the bathtub. Link quickly dried himself with a nice, large towel and then dressed himself with clean, new clothes. He blow-dried his hair and combed it, and he finally left his room.
Link walked down the hall to look for Zelda. His head was filled with his determination of telling the truth about his feelings. There was nothing more that he wanted was to be with Zelda once again, to tell her what everything. Even if she would never forgive him, ever again, he would have to understand. He clearly knew that he had broken her heart; if her heart had no sympathy to forgive him, he would just have to bear with it. It would be hard for the Hero of Time to do, but if it was for Zelda, he would do it. After over half an hour, Link caught her leaving the music room in the mansion, and quickly sprinted up to her.
"Zelda! Wait up! I have something important to tell you!" Link cried as he ran up to her. Zelda slowly turned herself towards Link and stared blankly at him.
"Okay! I know you are going to hate me for what Samus and I did together last night, but I was stupid and immature and I didn't realize that-" Link began, as Zelda cut him off.
"Excuse me, but do I know you?" Zelda asked, giving him a blank stare at him. Link stood there slightly shocked from what Zelda had just asked him. Was she kidding? Zelda was certainty not the type who would joke around and pull each other's leg, but Link tried to ignore the strangeness of behavior. Even if she was not kidding, he would still have to proceed with what he wanted to say.
"What? Zelda, stop joking around! I am serious here. I am really and truly sorry for what I did to Samus, but-" Link started to say, but Zelda cut himself off again.
"I am sorry, sir. But I seriously have no idea who you are, and how do you know my friend, Samus? Oh! I see now! You must be a fan or something to come see all the smashers fight today! Right? Isn't that it? But, please be sure you have permission to come here or the Master Hand will have to throw you out," Zelda said, as Link stood there shocked as ever. There was something wrong with the princess of Zelda. His mouth hung open, as he felt that the princess's head was empty with no recalling of him. He wasn't sure if this was some kind of sick joke that Zelda was giving him, but he could swear that his heart was currently in pain.
"What are you talking about, Zelda! You don't remember me? I am your friend for Farore's sake! Link! The Hero of Time! The person who has saved you from Ganondorf over, like, a hundred times! Please tell me you are just kidding around... It's not funny anymore Zelda, I am really sorry for what I did to Samus, but I have finally realized how much I care for you," Link said, as he paused to hear what she was going to say. There were no signs of lying in Zelda's eyes. No expression in her face was showing signs of happiness or delight in confusing Link. It remained the normal, serious face that he had always seen on Zelda.
"Sir, please forgive me once again, but I still don't know who you are. I do not know you from anywhere, and would you please stop bugging me? I don't mean to be rude, but I really have to get down to help some of the other smashers today," Zelda said, as Samus Aran came down the hallway and spotted Link and Zelda. Samus quickly ran over to where the two Hyruleans were standing.
"Zelda, I know what Link just told you, but I have to say that I am sorry too! I didn't mean to hurt you in any way, and you know that as a friend I love you and I would never want to hurt you by kissing-"Samus said, as Zelda interrupted.
"Samus, do you know this man?" Zelda asked pointing to Link. Samus stood there, shocked. If it were anyone, but Zelda speaking, she would think that this was all a little joke, but she knew Zelda to well, to think she would do something like this. Zelda was certainly not the type that would joke around like this.
"What are you talking about, Zelda? This is Link we are talking about! You know, the Hero of Time that saved you many times from Ganondorf! The very same Link that you love so much! The same Link who has been your knight in shining amour and has been the one who you deeply care about more than anyone!" Samus cried with her arms flailing in the air.
"I am sorry, but I have no idea who this man is. He just cried my name today as I was exiting the music room, so I figured that he was a fan of Super Smash Brothers and wanted to meet all the smashers. Is he a friend of yours?" asked Zelda, as Samus looked outraged.
"What the hell is wrong with you! Link! You don't remember anything about him? He is the one and only person you want! Zelda, look at him! He's a Hyrulean just like you! See the ears he has? It's the same as yours!" Samus cried, as Link just stood there still shocked on what Zelda had said.
As soon as Zelda gave him that blank stare, not knowing anymore who he was, he felt as though Zelda had turned into Sheik and threw all of her knives at him at him. He felt the sharp pain in his heart. There was something wrong with Zelda. He wasn't sure what it was, but something was wrong. She couldn't remember anything about Link. Had she… forgotten everything about Link? If that was the truth, why would she do so? In his heart, Link felt that there was nothing, but sorrow. Being forgotten by a loved one is worse than all the sicknesses in the world and losing everything that you have. He had no idea what had happened to Zelda, but all he could feel was the torment of Zelda having no memory of him. Link felt as if there was huge hole in his stomach. He felt as if he was sick and nauseous with heartache and grief. A pit, in where his heart should lie, where all depressed, sad things are grown and nothing is left in that pit, except eternal heartsickness. Samus kept on getting angry with Zelda and demanding to know why she didn't remember Link.
"So is he a new smasher?" asked Zelda innocently.
"NO! What are you talking about? Link has been a smasher for a long time! He was here even before you were a smasher! Why don't you remember him? You love him... I know you do! What is wrong with you, Zelda?" Samus said, on the verge of tears. Frustration was in Samus's head as she tried her best to have Zelda recall everything she saw from the other night. However, Zelda kept on giving Samus and Link a blank stare, not knowing who Link was. She felt guilt in her heart, knowing that Zelda could never forgive her for what she had done; if Zelda couldn't remember anything about the one she loved the most.
"Why would I love someone like him? I don't mean to hurt your feelings, erm...Link. But I don't know who in the Scared Realm he is. It's not possible for me to not know about this... If Link has been a smasher for a long time, then I would have known about him. Are you sure he is not a new smasher? He looks as if he's a new smasher," Zelda said blankly, as Samus had a horrified look upon her face. These words had stuck her across the face, as her frustration for this mystery grew deeper. She was running around in circles as she would never be able to find out what was abnormal about Zelda's manner.
"He is not a new smasher for the last time! What happened to you? Don't you remember anything from last night? Didn't you walk in on us when we were kissing?" Samus asked furiously.
"Oh, so Link is your boyfriend? I never knew you had a boyfriend. Why didn't you tell me? You don't need to keep secrets like this one away from me!" Zelda exclaimed.
"Stop it! Tell me, where were you last night?" Samus snapped.
Zelda stood there for a minute, thinking. Zelda tried to think back late at night. For some reason, she felt a sharp pain inside her head, as if something was preventing her from remembering what happened last night. Her mind still felt as if it was hallow and there was nothing she could recall late at night. There was a black figure, standing in front of her with the light streaming from behind him. The shadow of that figure refused to reveal his face. She concentrated harder to unveil the person she saw last night. She was able to make out a figure, which was Mewtwo. She was finally able to retrace her steps from the late night; she recognized the familiar dorm room that she had visited from late night.
"I went to see Mewtwo about something. I don't remember what, but it was probably something important because I wouldn't have seen him," Zelda replied, as she wondered herself, why she would stop by Mewtwo's dorm.
Samus shifted her gaze at Link for a moment, to observe what his reaction would be. He was just as puzzled as her. Samus could tell right away from the expression on his face; he was thinking the same idea that she was. They knew that Mewtwo should have an explanation for this. The Pokémon would have information about how Zelda's memory had vanished. They both abandoned Zelda, by herself, because she had to go and meet up with the Master Hand. After she left, Link and Samus discussed what had happened to Zelda, in private.
"What is wrong with Zelda?" Samus questioned Link.
"I have no idea. When I was talking with her, I thought she was joking around because I would never think that Zelda would talk to me in that way. It was as if she didn't know who I was," Link responded.
"But knowing Zelda, she wouldn't really joke around like that. She takes things pretty seriously. And, um... Link? You know what happened last night. I...um," Samus said as her voice trailed off.
"Please, don't bring that up again. I am really sorry for my behavior. But I must thank you, Samus. If you hadn't confronted me, I wouldn't have realized my feelings for Zelda. But now that it seems that Zelda doesn't remember me, I feel like I am just going to break in a million pieces. There's a sharp pain in my heart, and if Zelda doesn't remember anything about me, the pain will become deeper and deeper each day," Link grieved.
"Try to hold yourself together. We should see Roy and Peach to tell them what happened. They will probably want to know what has happened to Zelda," Samus said finally. The both speeded up in the hallways to hunt for the swordsman and the princess of the Mushroom Kingdom. They were able to spot Roy and Peach chatting away. As Link and Samus finally came in contact with Roy and Peach, they stopped talking to look at them.
"So, erm, Link. Did you hear what happened to Zelda?" asked Roy, knowing that Zelda had loved Link very much.
Roy had been aware of Zelda's feelings for the green clothed Hyrulean, and she often confronted all of her friends, except for Link, about her problem. Roy was especially concerned for all of his friends, but he knew it wasn't his place to disturb the triangle of love between the princess of Hyrule, the bounty hunter, and the Hero of Time. Being one of Zelda's most loyal friends, he was as worried about her as Peach, Samus, and Link.
"That's what we came to talk to you about. What do you think happened to her?" inquired Samus.
"I have no idea. When I caught up with Zelda, around eleven o'clock this morning, she and I just started talking about lot's of different things like shopping. When I was asking her if Link was going to partner for the tournament she said: 'Who?'," Peach replied, shaking her head in disbelief. "It was so weird. She told me that she caught up with you and the "Link person" and asked me whether or not he was a new smasher. Just… the way she responded when I asked her about Link felt as if she had no idea who he was or if he ever existed."
"It seems as if she's forgotten everything about Link or something," Roy said, thinking deeply about the issue.
"But if she did lose her memory how would that happen?" asked Link.
"Well, there is a possibility that she could have slipped on something and hit her head or something like that. It's possible that, she remembers everyone else, just not Link," Roy concluded, as he placed his fingers of his right hand around his chin. "However, I definitely feel that it's not that. There has to be something more to this issue that we are not thinking about."
"Well, she did say that she saw Mewtwo last night, do you think that would have to do anything with him?" asked Samus, as Roy looked up at her shocked. Clearly, Roy had more information about the subject of Mewtwo compared to most of the other smashers.
"Oh my... You can't be serious," Roy gasped.
"What? What is it?" asked Peach, a little worried about what Roy was going to say next.
"Wait, no one here is aware of what Mewtwo can do?" asked Roy as he focused his attention to Link. Seeing that Link had no information about Mewtwo's capabilities in his head, he shifted his gaze towards Samus. She also seemed to know nothing about Mewtwo. In hope that someone would know about Mewtwo's abilities, Roy's blue eyes focused on Peach. Her eyes held a blank stare in them, as all three smashers shook their heads.
"You have got to be kidding me! All this time Mewtwo was here and you don't know what his abilities are?" Roy asked outraged.
"Hey! We know all of his attacks on the battlefield! So you shouldn't be so hard on us!" Link declared in defense.
"No! That's not what I mean. Mewtwo's abilities in the tournament are NOTHING compared to what he can do to humans. He can erase their memories, give them illusions, do crazy stuff to the human mind, and make them go mad! He can control their mind, and he can even lead a person into killing himself!" Roy shouted quickly.
"What? No one told me that! How did you know that? I never knew that Mewtwo had those abilities," Peach proclaimed in shock.
"Fox and Captain Falcon told me all about it one day when we were talking about the entire smashers's pasts and everything," Roy replied softly.
"Wait, Roy... Are you suggesting that Mewtwo may have erased Zelda's memory?" asked Link as Roy nodded his head.
"Oh… my… GOD... This is really bad, we have to see Mewtwo now, or something bad might have happen to Zelda!" Samus exclaimed, as she quickly turned on her heel to run for her friend's life.
The foursome quickly made a mad dash to Mewtwo's room before everyone would go down to eat breakfast. Each smasher was just as confused, and shocked as the other smashers about this. Their beloved friend was hurt in some way, more than anything; they wanted to solve this mystery of Zelda's memory. They were all concerned with Zelda's state of mind, and they all questioned in their heads what Zelda may have become of from last night. All the smashers, except for Link, were aware of Zelda's suffering of the heartache of being out of love. However, if refusing to remember everything about Link was the way she could finally cope with Link's infatuation for Samus, she was wrong. They stopped at the purple door at the end of the hallway and banged their fists on the door.
"Mewtwo! Open the door! We have something important to talk to you about!" Link cried with worry and concern in his tone of voice.
Link continued to bang his fist on the purple door, and Peach, Roy, and Samus were also knocking on the door. Their concern was slowly rising as they prepared themselves to hear the news of what may have happened to Zelda. They had a vague idea of what Zelda had become of, but they were still unsure. Anything may have happened to Zelda. Anything. There were countless possibilities of the happenings that occurred to the princess of Hyrule. The tension in their minds kept on growing larger and larger, until Mewtwo finally swung open the door.
"What are you all doing here? If you really needed to see me, there's no reason to be almost breaking my door down," Mewtwo replied angrily, with a scowl on his face.
"But this is serious! We came here to talk about if you knew what happened to Zelda," Link exclaimed, as Mewtwo stood there frozen.
They were all aware of what had become of Zelda Harkinian. He knew that it what he had done was inevitable; someone would surely catch on with Zelda's problem, and confront him about it. He avoided looking into the Hyrulean's azure orbs, as he tried to focus his attention at the floor. If he was going to sputter out the truth, it was going to be painful for all four of Zelda's closest friends. Mewtwo wished to lie, and pretend what everything had happened, but he was too soft-hearted to see humans in pain. There would be a price he would have to pay for doing what he did to the future queen of Hyrule, and it would be to come clean about the truth. Link could tell by the look that was painted on Mewtwo's face, which he definitely did something to Zelda.
"You know, don't you? About what happened to her?" asked Link slowly, as he felt his voice was shaking in fear of what Mewtwo was going to say.
Link had rarely felt the pain of fear, however, this was one of those rare times in his lifetime where was afraid of something. He was afraid of what Mewtwo had done. He wished to know if Mewtwo had any pleasure to see the smashers in pain. Zelda could not recall anything about the blonde haired hero, and this was something that Link refused to easily let go. It was something that he would never be able to let go, until he knew the truth. The truth would be painful, and Link was aware of that. However, he still desired to inquire the information of the happening of Zelda. He'd rather experience the pain and have the small glimpse of hope in fixing all the broken emotions in his heart, rather than pretending that nothing had happened to Zelda.
"Please, I know this will be hard to handle, but please come inside my room so we can discuss this," Mewtwo replied softly.
He opened the door wider so that they would all be able to come in. The psychic Pokémon slowly entered his room, first, as the four smashers followed on it. After entering the room, they all stared at his room in awe. It was filled with whirring machines, laboratory material, a sink, and many other scientific materials. Mewtwo's room looked more as if it was a lab than a dorm room. All of the smashers were stunned to see that the Master Hand and Crazy Hand were able to allow all this material in Mewtwo's dorm room. Everything certainty seemed very precious to Mewtwo by the way everything was organized and placed. The room also seemed to be very mysterious with the lighting darker than the hallway lights, and all unknown substances that were in the test tubes.
"Please don't touch anything. I don't want you to mess up any of my experiments. These are very important to me and I would like it that none of you got turned into something like frog," Mewtwo said cautiously.
They all nodded as they looked at all the equipment with wonder. Everything looked so interesting and they all wanted to touch it, but it was all dangerous. They were both astounded and yet, horrified with what schemes Mewtwo was planning. There was something about Mewtwo that the smashers found to be mysterious and alien to all of the other smashers. His room definitely showed that, with the different substances in the testing tubes, and the gloomy atmosphere that the room provided. All the four smashers felt as if they were being trapped in the room with Mewtwo locking the door, after all of them had stepped in. There were not sure what Mewtwo was planning to say to them, but when he finally faced them, there seemed to be no evil intentions in his eyes.
"So, about Zelda... What about her?" Mewtwo asked.
The Pokémon, however, knew all about the disturbing thoughts that were in all of the smashers's heads. He had to admit, that he was ashamed of what he had done the other night, but this was what she wished for. The truth would be very painful for each of the smashers to handle, but he could sense in their minds and hearts that they were all emotionally strong enough. Perhaps, not Link. Especially not Link. He was the closest one to Zelda, and worry crept into his mind, as he wondered how the arrogant hero would take the news. It was inevitable to lie to all of them, he could try make them believe that no such thing had happened to Zelda for the rest of their lives… but Mewtwo was aware that he would be putting them all in pain, and either none of the smashers would ever be happy ever again. Mewtwo was in favor of being performing good actions now, even though he would be damaging their sake of happiness, he had no choice, but only to tell the truth.
"We want to know what you have done to her!" Samus proclaimed, as her brows furrowed deeply on her face. She was almost ready to break in tears. She and Zelda had an unbreakable bond. She had helped her get through the toughest times. She had told her all about her lonely past, and Zelda had comforted her, saying that she was never alone. All Samus Aran wished for Zelda was to be happy. But how could her friend be ever happy in her life, if she didn't have the love of her life remember who she was?
"Did you erase her memory? If you did, I will never be able to forgive you for doing something like that to my friend! She was one the closet people to me! I just want her to be happy with Link!"
"Why would you think that I would do anything like that?" Mewtwo asked, as a smirk began to form on his mouth. He tried to remain cool and mysterious as he always did to leave them a little clueless of what was actually going on. He wanted to look as calm as possible, because he knew that the smashers would have to do the same thing, when he told the truth.
"Why else would we think that? We already think that you are really weird and creepy with all these experiments in your room and your abilities!" Peach said, as she jerked her head in the direction to a jar filled with what looked like human eyeballs.
Something about the room was sending chills up and down the smashers spines. The lighting was darker than most of the rooms of the mansion. The room seemed to be a bit colder than most of the rooms, as the four smashers were all trying to best not to shiver at the chilliness of the room. They all felt a little vulnerable to Mewtwo's intensions and actions. As if they were all mice being corned by a large loin that was thirsty for blood and ready to pounce at them, to devour all of them for dinner. Peach was a little scared about Mewtwo's abilities, but she felt a little relaxed knowing that someone like Roy would protect her from any harm. He had always said that he would protect her from any harm, no matter what. That's what she liked so much about Roy. She knew that she shouldn't be thinking about her special feelings for the flamed haired swordsman, but she tried her best to remain calm and not panic. However, no matter how much Roy could protect her, that didn't stop her from worrying about Mewtwo and his thoughts. Mewtwo slyly smiled and let out a little mischievous laugh escape from his mouth.
"Yes, I admit I may be a little strange, but trust me: I would never dream of hurting your beloved princess. Yes, I do admit that I erased her memory. Before any of you say anything please know that I only did it because it was what she wished for," Mewtwo said.
"What? Why would she want to do that?" asked Peach.
"I recall from what I heard from her last night, that she caught you and Link kissing yesterday night," Mewtwo said, as he gestured his hand towards Samus and Link.
The swordsman and the bounty hunter both had a shade of rose pink appear in their cheeks. Roy and Peach looked at both of them, completely shocked. They never expected that Link would finally build up enough courage to do something so bold, as to kiss the cold hearted bounty hunter. In fact, Roy and Peach both wished that someday that Link would finally figure out his feelings for Zelda and forget all about his infatuation for Samus, since it was obvious that Zelda and Link were made for each other. The truth was that Link had always been shy around people when it came to females.
"Wait, Link and Samus kissed? And Zelda caught them?" asked Roy, as Mewtwo nodded.
"But anyways, Mewtwo, please tell us what happened," Roy continued, trying to figure out what happened to Zelda.
"I don't prefer to tell you, Roy, but I prefer to show you what happened," Mewtwo said, as everyone stood there trying to figure out what Mewtwo was trying to say. They all had a blank look upon their faces as they hoped that Mewtwo would explain what he meant by saying that. He, however, ordered them to do something. "Close your eyes."
"But-"
"Just close your eyes!" Mewtwo snapped, as everyone closed their eyes.
Mewtwo finally closed his eyes and put his hands in front of him. With the blackness that all the smashers saw in front of their eyes, it was blinded by a bright heavenly light. They felt as if time was slowing down, as Mewtwo's powers did its work on them in the minds. They felt as if life was moving before them before a blink of an eye, as they just stood there in the middle of Mewtwo's room, and everything would be shown from Mewtwo to the smashers. Roy, Peach, Link, and Samus were all nauseous with all the things that would be flashing in their heads. They minds were soaking up the information that Mewtwo was showing them. With Mewtwo's extraordinary powers, the smashers were able to understand what Mewtwo had asked of them.
Mewtwo somehow was able to show his memory of what had happened last night between Zelda and him. It was if they were right there on that night standing there watching both Mewtwo and Zelda as their conversation progressed. They could see from the room's clock that it was late at night, almost around midnight. The moonlight was streaming in the room from the room's only window, and the machines were whirring and seemed to chat among themselves with all the other machines. Everything began when Mewtwo was mixing a purple liquid in a beaker, wearing a white lab coat, when there was a rapid knocking on the door. Mewtwo sighed, put his beaker down, as he made sure that none of the substance had gotten on himself. He hastily unbuttoned himself from the white lab coat, as he finally went to get the door. When Mewtwo finally opened the door, he came upon Princess Zelda with her eyes filled with tears, as she tried her best to keep herself from sobbing.
"Zelda, what are you doing here this late? What's wrong? You look like you have been crying," Mewtwo commented, stating the obvious.
"Mewtwo, I have a huge favor to ask you about," Zelda sputtered out, as she was trying to not choke on her words.
She couldn't help it. Everything seemed to be flying past her eyes. She had no control of her body. She felt as if her heart was controlling her body, rather than her mind. If anything, there was too much pain in her heart. There was nothing more that could be done, than to remove all that pain from her heart. This was her decision. She would be bold enough to come to Mewtwo and ask him the biggest favor, she had ever asked to anyone. Her mouth was dry and she tried to moisten it by swallowing the huge lump in her throat. Her mind ached, and she was tired of all this suffering she was going with. She couldn't stand it anymore. She had waited for him. She had waited for him for seven years back in Hyrule, and now here in the Super Smash Brothers Mansion for over a year and a half now. He had not returned the feelings that she hoped that he would. To think of it, Princess Zelda Harkinian of Hyrule had given him everything that she possessed as a Hyrulean. She had given him the rare smile that was her most attractive fragment of herself. She had shown him all the emotions that she was afraid of showing to other people. Her fears, her worries, and every negative aspect of herself. She was ready to finally say good bye to him.
"What is it?" Mewtwo questioned, as he hesitated to hear what the princess's request was. By the look on his face, all the four smashers, watching Mewtwo's memory, could tell that he seemed to be already aware of what the princess was asking.
"I want to forget everything about Link!" Zelda said, as she couldn't handle the pain anymore, and started to let the tears flow down her cheeks. Mewtwo looked at her for a moment not sure on how to handle the situation. He finally took a deep breath and said:
"Come inside. It's better if we discuss everything inside my room rather than here out in the hallway."
Zelda nodded her head as she took a few steps into his room. She was a little surprised about how everything was designed in such a different way, but at the moment, she could care less. She was heartbroken, and no one could fix her shattered glass heart, until Link could tell her, himself about how he truly felt. She knew that she was stubborn with her own feelings, but she knew that there was no other person she had felt the most for, than Link. Mewtwo closed the door behind her, as he faced her in the eyes, and gave her a handkerchief.
"Here, take this to wipe your tears," Mewtwo said compassionately.
"Thank you, Mewtwo," Zelda blubbered out of her mouth, as she wiped the tears away from her eyes. She tried to calm herself, to stop her crying, but it wasn't working. She wanted to remain as strong as Impa had always taught her, but for now, she felt it was best to let herself go.
"Now, please try to calm down and tell me exactly what happened that makes you want to forget everything about Link," Mewtwo said softly.
Zelda took a deep breath. She needed to try to remain strong once again. She was a princess after all, and princesses were not allowed to show their pain. But there she was heartbroken from seeing Link kissing Samus. She saw even Samus returning that little kiss, when she thought that Samus would have tried to ignore that little kiss. Still though, she wanted to cry, break things, and let the tears flow down her cheeks. There was nothing, but sorrow in her heart. She was already in pain, seeing how Link wasn't aware of her feelings for him. Every day that she was with Link, it always felt as if she was in love. Princess Zelda could feel the same warmness in Link, as she gave him. She was suffering inside to see Link feeling the way he did for Samus. She was sure that what Link had felt for Samus was infatuation. But was she wrong? Knowing how she felt for Link, she would do anything for him. But there was nothing that she could do for him. If Link's happiness lied with Samus, she could not interfere with the two. To her, Link was the first and only person she truly felt. There was no other man that she had felt the way she did for Link. She was committed to stay at his side, no matter what. He didn't return those feelings that Zelda had felt for him… No one else could make her happy as Link did. This man… had taught her how to love. How to truly love someone for who they are. She inhaled some more of the dusty, moldy air in Mewtwo's room, as she would try her best to explain everything to him. She didn't expect him to understand everything about how she felt for Link, but she just wanted to spill out the words.
"I was walking down the hall to see the Master Hand about something he wanted to talk to me about," Zelda began, with her voice slowly shaking. She swallowed a lump in her throat, as she started to hiccup, "and when I was turning around the corner of the hallway I saw Samus and Link kissing each other!"
Mewtwo stood there with a slight shocked look upon his face, as Zelda sobbed even harder. She knew that she should have maybe said more, but there was nothing that would come in her mind, except the painful image of Link and Samus being together forever. The teardrops refused to stop, as they small rivers started to flow down her cheeks. Recalling all those times that Link was with her, she could have sworn in his eyes that there was sympathy. She was confused about everything. She was certain that the look in his eyes, were of warmth and love, but… how could he not love her? She thought he implied it everyday, with his warm smile and soft heartedness to her. She wished nothing more than to know that Link had cared for her, and would be more than happy to be with her forever.
"So this is what you want? To forget all your precious memories with Link?" Mewtwo asked softly. It took her a while to move her stiff head, from the crying. It felt as if her mind wanted to tell her to not do it, but her heart was telling her to. She was able to finally jerk her head up and down, after a few seconds.
"But you love Link. I can definitely see that in your brain. Are you sure that you want that?" Mewtwo continued, as he hesitated as if he wanted to say more. He felt that this was perhaps to wrong to do. If he fulfilled the favor that Zelda was asking for, he only prayed that Link himself, wouldn't come to hunt him down and hurt him in any physical way.
"I can't do this to myself. If I pretend like I didn't see them kissing, I will feel like I am pretending that he loves me back when he really doesn't. I'd be living in a disgusting, yet beautiful lie," Zelda said slowly.
She bit one side of her lip, as her crying calmed down, but tears were still falling out of her eyes. There would be no way for her to ever stop her crying… not until Mewtwo fully removed every moment she had spared with Link. Nothing would be left for her, if she could continue to live seeing the one she loved the most with Samus. She did want Samus to be happy, but if she had to see two people in her life, that she loved, she couldn't bear with the pain. She wished to be with Link forever, but she was aware that she would only be in the way of Samus's and Link's relationship. Mewtwo wheezed out a long breath of the cool air in his dorm room, as he shook his head in disappointment at Zelda's request. Mewtwo didn't want to waste his breath talking so he decided to communicate with Zelda using telepathy. This would be the best way to communicate with Zelda, now that her mind was whirring with thoughts.
"But what happens if he does actually love you, but he just doesn't realize it?" Mewtwo asked. The Pokémon felt a lot comfortable now, knowing that he could talk to Zelda through the mind. He, however, stared deeply into Zelda's deep sky blue eyes, as she looked back into his purple ones.
"If he does, then it's just too late. I gave him time to tell me that he loves me. But judging from what I saw when he was with Samus, I think he really loves her," Zelda replied, she continued to cry. She dainty wiped away the newly formed tears from her eyes, as she felt her nose become clogged up from all the crying she had shed.
"If I erase you memory for you, would you regret it?" Mewtwo asked, with his eyes still locked on the princess's. She didn't look back into his eyes, as she focused on wiping the tears around her eyes. She remembered the kindness and warmness she had felt when she was in love with Link, and was completely sure that there would be no man for her.
"The only thing I ever regret is falling in love with him!" Zelda told Mewtwo, as two more tears were squeezed out of her eyes.
She didn't bother wiping away the tears that rolled down her cheeks. She wanted those tears to fall down, and drop down on her white dress. She wished that she could cry away her sadness and grief to get over what she had seen over half an hour ago. She wished that she could somehow become stronger from what she had saw and forget all about the incident. But she also knew that it would be impossible for her to ever become emotionally stronger, from witnessing the kiss of the famous bounty hunter and her hero. Zelda was aware, however, that she was lying about herself about what she thought in her mind. It was best for Princess Zelda to experience love, rather than to not learn how to love at all.
"But you do realize that if I do erase your memories with Link, that I won't be able to restore everything? I mean there is a way that you could somehow get your memories with Link back, but that would only be if Link really loved you and would do anything for you," Mewtwo said.
"It doesn't matter anymore. He loves Samus. Link wouldn't have kissed Samus for any reason unless he really likes her. This is what's best for both me and him. I don't want to experience this pain anymore," Zelda replied, as Mewtwo sighed.
"Alright, fine. I will erase your memory for you, Princess. If it's what you truly want then I will erase it for you. When you wake up you will faintly remember this meeting," Mewtwo said, using his mind, as Zelda nodded. "Is there anything else you want to tell me before I remove your memories with Link?"
"Tell him I said good-bye and that I truly loved him," Zelda told him through her mind.
Zelda closed her eyes as two more tears spilled out. Mewtwo put his hand over her eyes and closed his eyes as well as he started to erase her precious memories with Link. Zelda could see in her brain that he was slowly erasing everything. Everything related to the green clothed Hyrulean. The scene of Link and Samus lips meeting was slowly disappearing, as Zelda started to see Samus not kissing anything. Mewtwo started to erase all the information about what happened earlier that morning… battling with Link and Roy. He was standing next to Roy, as he used his sword as support to hold his body together. His body was disappearing in the air, as she saw no one next to Roy. When she called his name out in the morning, and he turned around to reveal his warm, smiling face was vanishing in thin air. More memories were disappearing. Every time she had met Link, was abandoning her mind. The time where she had caught up with him, when signing up to become a new smasher for the Melee Tournament, and him spending time with him after defeating Ganondorf. From encountering the Hero of Time, for each temple he would appear, to her seeing him when she was leaving the castle. Finally the first memory of Link was vanishing. Where both of them met for the first time. She remembered at first gazing in the Hyrulean's blue sphere in his eyes sockets, as he stared back at her, with curious eyes. Mewtwo's power was working, as the young boy's body was slowly disappearing, and she saw the face was still until Mewtwo completely had the face vanish into nothing.
The group of friends stood in the room shocked with what they had seen. They were all so surprised that Zelda would want to do something like this. No one said a word for a long time because they were all trying their best to accept what happened between Mewtwo and Zelda. Everyone knew, however, that they couldn't let something as prodigious as this event slip past their minds, as if it was nothing at all. To them, this was horrifying, painful, and, for the Hero of Time, heartbreaking.
"…Why?" Link broke out, in a shaking voice in the room. He gritted his teeth, as he felt his fists clench up. His anger quickly rose, as he was frustrated with everything that he and Zelda had done. He continued to speak through his tightly closed teeth. "….Why did she want this? She should know that I care deeply about her!"
"She wanted this more than anything. I couldn't stop her. It was heartbreaking to see her in great pain. I couldn't help but feel sorry for her," Mewtwo said to Link. He tried to have the look of sympathy in his eyes, to make Link feel better, but he knew it wasn't helping. He could read from his mind, that his body temperature was boiling up and was ready to break out and do something rash.
"But she should know that I love her! I always had and I always will! I was just being a fool to let myself kiss Samus!" Link cried out with frustration.
"She didn't know that. She assumed that you loved Samus when you kissed her," Mewtwo said softly. This would be hard for the Hero of Time to swallow down in his brain, but Link would not accept what just happened and still be in retrospect, and question the past.
"But that's not right! She shouldn't have done this! I love her so much! Why? Why would she want to do this to me?" the Hero of Time choked out, as he broke down and started to cry.
The three other smashers stared at Link. Link would never cry in front of anyone, and this was the first time they all had seen him cry. He always seemed to have a sense of pride, knowing that he was a man, and men never cried. He was a warrior, and no matter how painful everything would be, they would never be allowed to shed one tear of sadness. However, Link felt he had every right to cry. He finally figured out who he wanted to most in his life. The person who would always be there for him, yet she was already gone. As if she had evaporated into thin air, and she would leave nothing. All these emotions were filling his mind and body, as he was angry, heartbroken, sad, and loathing him at the same time. Roy, Peach, and Samus were all still horror stricken with everything that had happened. They couldn't move their body because their friend had lost the person she loved the most in her mind. All three of their bodies felt lifeless, and delayed, because no one moved. They all wanted to comfort Link's sorrow, but they somehow couldn't. They all wished to see what he had to say, before performing some kind of action.
"Give her back! Give her memories of me back! I want her to remember me! I want her to remember everything about me and all the times we spent together!" Link cried out, as tears continued to fall out of his eye sockets. Mewtwo opened his mouth to speak, as his voice went tender and soft to attempt to comfort Link once again.
"Link... You have to realize that-" Mewtwo began to say, but Link cut him off.
"I don't care! GIVE HER BACK TO ME!" Link roared furiously.
He strode over to a lab table and started smashing all the glass test tubes, beakers, and many other jars on the table. The glass was buried deep into both of his arms, but he didn't care. He did stop a little bit to wrench out the glass shards in both of his arms, but he would continue to break all of Mewtwo's experimental equipment. Mewtwo had hurt Link in an indirect way, and Link wanted Mewtwo to feel the same pain as he did. He was aware in the back of his mind, that he was not helping with anything, instead performing a cycle of hurting other people, but he didn't care. He had no idea how to control his anger, and wished there would be just some way from having all these events from happening to either Zelda or him. But he knew that the doors of time were sealed off forever, due to the defeat of Ganondorf.
"I WANT HER BACK! I WANT HER TO REMEMBER EVERYTHING AGAIN!"
Link couldn't control himself. He kept on smashing everything with his hands and throwing a fit. All these confusing emotions were running through his head. He was frustrated, upset, angry, but most of all, heartbroken. He couldn't believe that Zelda made this decision to do this. He had already experienced the same pain that Zelda had felt when Zelda didn't know who he was. Tears were pouring out of his eyes. Link didn't realize how fragile Zelda was. Her heart was as if it was made of glass. It was very beautiful, and exotic, but at the same time it was something that was delicate, and that could be broken easily. He remembered a time when he was talking with Zelda when there were little.
"Memories are like tears and feathers. They can be like tears because once you taste them, they can be sweet for a very short time, but they can turn salty. It's really hard to taste the sweetness of tears. Memories can also be like feathers in a way, because they are beautiful and precious, but memories are something light and can easily be blown away from your mind. So it's easy to forget things." Zelda told him.
Those tender, soft words had truly touched him, as he felt that those words would pierce his heart over and over again with his own sword. He realized now, that he shouldn't have taken those words so lightly. Those words stung in his head, as he could hear Zelda's haunting voice repeating them over. He wished that none of this had happened. He wanted to go back in time again, and change everything. Link felt that it was his entire fault that he let his hormones take over his mind and body to think that he loved Samus, when he knew he didn't. He kept on destroying all of Mewtwo's experiments in the room until Roy, Peach, and Samus grabbed him forcefully to stop him.
"Please...Mewtwo... Please give her back to me..." Link said, panting on the floor. Mewtwo did not reply in any way.
"GIVE HER BACK! GIVE ALL OF HER MEMORIES BACK!" Link yelled, as he took Mewtwo by the shoulders and started shaking violently him.
Tears started pouring out of the sockets of his eyes. He couldn't stop it. He couldn't stop anything. He couldn't control himself, as he felt himself being possessed by the demon hidden inside of him. He loved Zelda more than anyone, and he wished to stay by her side forever. However, what good was it to Link, if the person he felt strongly for, couldn't return his feelings if she didn't remember who he was? The tears continued to roll down his cheeks, as he felt as if he was choking on disgusting worms and slimy creatures in his mouth, as the words he kept on stumbling over and over. He hyperventilated from the sobbing, as he tried his best to pronounce the words correctly so that everyone would understand what he said. His voice stopped from being harsh and loud, into becoming softer and tender.
"Please give her back to me. She's the only person who's ever been close to me."
This was all becoming too much for the smashers to see. Link was acting in such an immature way, that they knew that enough was enough. They all allowed him to get away with letting his emotions flow out of his body, but it now he was acting like a fool. There needed to be some self control in Link's body. They could all tell that he was possessed with all the feelings he had in his body. Roy couldn't bear seeing his friend acting act the way he did, so he slowly walked over to Link, as he separated Link from cling on to Mewtwo's shoulders, and struck him across the face. Roy had never done anything so bold into slapping his friend across the face, but he knew it was the only way. The other smashers were a little surprised by Roy's actions, but they all watched to see what he would say to Link now.
"Shut up! This isn't going anywhere! First of all, think of all the positive things about this situation! Look, the good thing is that Zelda is not dead, you are not dead. I mean, imagine everything that could be even worse for a moment! Zelda could have committed suicide or if she was really insane, which by the way I highly doubt, she could have killed either you or Samus," Roy shouted. "You need to stop despairing over this incident, and move on! Mewtwo said to Zelda that there was a way for Zelda to regain all of her memories of you! Right, Mewtwo?"
"You are correct, Roy. But Link, you have to realize that: one you just destroyed my months of research, and two," he pointed at a brightly glowing powder beneath a rocking chair," I think you have just helped me find a cure for asthma."
"I did? Umm... Well, I am really sorry about ruining everything, but I am glad in a way that I helped you...ish...I am sorry, everyone, that I was acting immature and being stupid and I couldn't control my anger. But after Roy knocked some sense into me, I guess that I finally realized that he was right, and that I shouldn't have acted that way," Link said, feeling ashamed with what he had just done in front of everyone. It felt very awkward to Link, knowing that he was acting without properly thinking, and following with his natural motives as a young Hyrulean man. He did feel as if everything was flashing before him, and that he was being controlled by all of the motives he had in his body.
"It's alright, I can always fix everything up with my powers," Mewtwo said, as he pondered a little bit. "But back to what I was saying, there is a way for Zelda to get all of her memories back."
"And that is?" asked Roy anxiously, as Mewtwo sighed.
"Well, it's kind of hard to explain. The only way for Zelda to regain all of her memories is to find out what her most precious memory was with Link, and simply by taking her to the place where they shared that memory," Mewtwo remarked.
"What do you exactly mean?" asked Samus.
"Say for example, that Zelda's most precious memory was the tournament last year when she was paired up with Link to fight Ganondorf. Link would just simply have to take her to the Hyrule Temple Arena and then she would remember everything," Mewtwo said finally.
"Hm... But what could her favorite memory of me would be?" asked Link.
"Well, you do know one thing," Mewtwo said.
"And that would be...?" asked Link, as he raised his eyebrows towards Mewtwo.
"Is that Zelda's most precious memory with you was not here in the Super Smash Brothers Mansion or Tournament. If it was, she would have instantly regained her memory back and there would be no point in her asking me to remove her memories with you because it would be pointless if she then forgot about you and then remembered who you are again," Mewtwo explained.
"Okay... But what if one of her most precious memories with me was in the sky?" said Link, remembering what happened after he and Zelda defeated Ganondorf.
The other smashers just gave him a blank stare and wondering what the heck their friend was talking about. There were not aware of this memory that Link was talking about, because neither him nor Zelda had ever given them information about this. It didn't seem physically possible to float in the sky, while having a conversation. For normal people, however, the other three smashers did not posses any kind of magic in their minds or bodies.
"How is that possible? You can't really share a memory in the sky..." Peach said, as Link shook his head. His cheeks turned from being tanned, golden beige to a shade of light pink. He would have to explain everything that happened that day, as he stumbled over the words that he proclaimed.
"Er, it's kind of difficult to explain. After Zelda and I defeated Ganondorf when he was trying to get all of the pieces of the Triforce and take over Hyrule, Zelda and I somehow were floating in the sky and we just talked to each other about what happened, err... Yeah," Link said, trying his best to explain the situation.
"While I was going through her memories, I did stumble upon that memory. But I didn't feel that was her happiest memory with you. I mean, she did love talking to you in that memory, but it wasn't her most precious memory," Mewtwo said.
"Then do you know what it is?" asked Roy.
"No, I don't. If I did, I would have instantly told Link. In Zelda's mind, I couldn't figure out what her most beloved memory was because it was heavy guarded. It must have been something really important to her because it seemed like she didn't want anyone to know about this experience with her and Link, no matter who the person was. I, of course, was able to successfully remove that memory for her. But be aware, Link, that I only went through some of her memories, and most of the memories I went through and was able to see were the ones you and Zelda had here in the Super Smash Brothers Mansion," Mewtwo explained.
"Hm... Do the memories she and I have include the ones when she was Sheik?" asked Link as Mewtwo glowered a little bit at Link's stupidity. The psychic would have to bear with the Hyrulean's mind of lesser intelligence, as he answered the question.
"Yes, Link... It does," Mewtwo said.
"Okay, I am just making sure on what I need to do," Link said, as he started exiting the room.
"Where do you think you're going, Link?" asked Roy.
"What else do you think I am going to do?" the ocean eyed Hyrulean replied. "I am going to restore Zelda's memories of me, all by myself!"
"Zelda... I will get all of your memories of us being together. No matter what it takes."
Link smiled softly, as he promised that he would never give up on this task that was placed before him. He was aware that most people wouldn't smile during a situation like this, but he remembered what Zelda had always taught him. To always smile at a problem, no matter how difficult it is, and to have faith. He would try his best, to stay as emotional strong as he could. He would make sure when Zelda would remember who he was, she wouldn't see him in despair. He would fulfill the act of respect that he felt for Zelda's own strength, he try to remain as strong as she always did. When Link declared that he would do something, he would always be determined to finish that task. He took one last breath from Mewtwo's dorm room and withdrew from the room.
Okay! The second chapter is finally here! I admit that the title of this chapter is a song title from Faye Wong. Okay, please don't bash on me on Mewtwo's powers and how you guys think I must be an idiot for telling everyone what Mewtwo is capable of, but I was trying to make this chapter appropriate for people who have never seen Pokémon as a child or whatever. I was also trying to explain some things for my friend, Vandae, who edited this chapter and the first chapter, so she would be able to understand everything because she has never played Zelda or seen (and never was interested) in Pokémon. If you are going to criticize my writing, please be specific with some examples you picked up in the story. And if you think my story "sucks" please tell me something different on stuff like pairings or whatever. Oh yeah, you are always welcome to leave me a long review if you are commenting on my writing. Just no flaming. Criticism on my writing is allowed for spelling, and grammar, but no flaming on the pairings or whatever. Now praise for my reviewers!
Itxier - Thank you so much for being my first reviewer. :D Don't worry, I'll definitely finish this story because I enjoy writing it and I am really determined to finish it! So keep on reading!
SnowCrystal - Thanks for reviewing! Well, this is somewhat like Tsubasa: RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE, but it's definitely different. I did make a slight reference to it when Zelda was comparing feathers to memories. For some reason, I like stories with memory problems! It's a really good story so far! So I suggest you read it, if you love Card Captor Sakura. I have only read up to three volumes, so um... yeah... I don't want to say right here whether or not it's a Zelink, but if you go to my profile the answer is pretty obvious. Oh my God... You got a really long response to your review... o.O Sorry for this! (whacks myself with a stick for making the review response very long...)
Royal Kenya - Oh my God... One of my favorite SSBM authors... Read my story... O.O Thank you so much for reviewing and thanks for adding it to your favorites! (glomps) Thank you again!
Timestopper - O.O Umm... I'm taking that as a good thing? And yes, just to let you know, when I published the first chapter I already had this one written, so I was just giving time for people to read it and review it! (sweat drop appears)
CloneTrooper47 - Yay! Thank you for thinking that my story is good! Yes, I do get annoyed when some people don't know what the difference between love and attraction is too!
Love,
