Disclaimer: I still don't own SSB. If I did, Lucina and Chrom would both be alt. costumes for Marth and Streetsmash for the 3DS version wouldn't exist.
Pit, though he didn't show it, was VERY excited. He was finally gonna get a shot at this camping thing! He was going to get to sleep outside, and eat s'mores and ALL the fun stuff.
"Alright, who's got hunting duty!" Sonic called out
Hunting? Pit never thought that there was gonna be HUNTING. He didn't want to kill innocent animals! I mean, netherworld beasts, he could take down no problem, but actually KILLING a LIVING BEING, and an innocent one at that, was unthinkable! Think of the berating he would get from Viridi if he goes through with it.
"I elect ArmPit to go" Pitoo announced.
"I second the motion" Sonic said
"So its decided, go out there and kill some cute and innocent animals for us ArmPit!"
"Hold it" Shulk, the obviously nice one, abruptly stopping his "spar" with Roy. "I want to go with 'im!"
"Aye, whatever, I'm taking a nap until the fire needs to be lit" Roy said, surprising everyone as this would be his first words in the fic
"Nuh-Uh Shulk, you know your sword glows and scares off the creatures!" Sonic waved his forefinger.
"I can think of a good creature to scare off" Shulk activated speed as Sonic started running in fear, apparently forgetting the fact that he would still be faster
As they were walking away, Pit muttered to Shulk "Hey, thanks for sticking with me"
Shulk punched him in the shoulder "I'd do it for anyone mate, you're with us now!"

Pit whistled and looked around for animals to beat on while Shulk sat still in the forest, seeming to meditate. Pit said offhandedly "What are you doing over there"
"When a vision comes, I will listen" Shulk said as he laid back now in a sleeping position.
Pit, deciding that he's not getting anywhere so he laid down with Shulk and tried to have a 'vision' too. They seemed to sit there forever. Eventually he got impatient
"So what are these 'visions' like?"
"I see what may happen, and I try to prevent it."
"So, what are you waiting for?"
"THIS" His eyes flashed as he did a chinese get-up and backflipped. Meanwhile a wild boar charged through the bushes, finding two troublesome humans in his territory. Shulk landed upon him, stabbing through his neck as the boar just begun to realize how this was going to end. Pit got up, visibly shaken yet awed at his ability.
"Do the other smashers do that too when they counter too! Why don't I get a counter!" Pit whined
Shulk sighed "No, the others predict their opponents next move by tracking muscle movements and/or common sense. I see into a possible future, the future in which I don't react in time and they get me, and I use the knowledge to get them where they're going to be open. Like take that boar, all Lucina-" thinking of Lucina, he sighed the only way a british-boy-band-candidate could "-All Lucina could have done was hope that the boar was going to be predictable and continue rushing forward while I see exactly what it is going to do and when."
At this point Pit was taking notes, and wasn't prepared for an ending. He asked "So, what did you see?"
Shulk hesitated "Well, if successful, the boar would have trampled you, crushing your ribs. You'd try your best not to cry, but fail, then attempt to say that it was the dust stirred that's making you cry. This would be an obvious lie, I'd have to carry you maiden style back to camp, and you'd beg to be brought back to Palutena, demanding then to get your 'boo-boos' kissed, which Palutena would do in motherly, if not patronizing, style while telling you that 'everything is gonna be alright now that I'm here'. Dark Pit would get the berating of his life for letting you get hurt, but you'd still be banned from coming to the camp grounds, and none of the smashers under the age of 20 would let up on you for a month"
"Not even Lucas?"
"Not even Lucas."
"Well… thank you for saving my hide then…" Pit said gratefully
"Let's head back, since I did all the killing, you can carry it back. Oh, and by the way, thank me later for not making you go through the moral turmoil of killing a creature under Viridi."
"O-of course!" Pit said, hefting the boar on his shoulder, not noticing that this was indeed Viridi's doing.
Yay, that was chapter number two :D. I can't believe I'm already getting attention, and as promised, I'm posting and responding to Reviews. This one comes from a "Telesoap" and reads:
I want to see this play out, I really do. Place your bets, people!
Anywho, I'd like to see what Sonic and Dark Pit will do to make poor Pit run off, haha. Keep up the good work! o v o
Well, bet your happy to know that they didn't succeed this time, thanks to Shulk being such a good friend (hence the "friendship" tag). You know, I was considering making this a Humor fic, but as I was writing I realized that trying to make this funny would ruin the authenticity of what Pit was feeling. Oh, and thanks for the support :D. Until next time!
