Disclaimer: I never have, nor will I ever will own SSB. If I did, Robin's custom moves would be different tomes from FE: Awakening.
"We're ba-ack!" Pit said, making sure Pittoo heard loud and clear
Pittoo nudged Sonic "I thought the boar would handle him, Viridi promised so!"
"Shut up, he's coming close, we still have the next part of the plan" Sonic then rushed around and collected the sticks and put them in a nice little pile. Roy stepped out and yawned.
"Here." he lit the fire, cutting the pile in the process, alighting an impressive fire. He then headed back to his tent
"Wait, you gonna bask in whatever little glory you'd get in this fic?"
"Nope" Roy slipped in his tent, never to be mentioned again.
The sun has set by now, and the time is ripe for Sonic and Pitoo's scheme.
"So… did you hear about Lucina and Robin?" Sonic said offhandedly
"What is it" Pit asked
"Well, I heard they split, Lucina got sick of how protective Robin was."
"Whaaaat? he's such a nice guy though."
"The last straw was when the Captain hit on her and Robin tied him down and tortured him with the Levin Sword. Words out she's looking for a new mate to S rank with, if you know what I mean." He said the last sentence more to Shulk than Pit,
"Really?" Pit said.
"Oh don't worry, she's not looking for pipsqueaks." Pittoo cracked, both of the obnoxious smashers breaking out into laughter
Pit red-faced because of the trap he was led into, said "Hey, no teasing!"
"Of course," Pittoo instantly composed himself, suspiciously so "Let's get to the next part of the night, the stories" Pitoo smiled devilishly at this last statement.
"Um.. what kind of stories." Pit asked timidly
"Scary ones of course, why else would the moon be smiling on us," and indeed the moon was full of mirth, chuckling at the author's attempt at being noticed as a writer.
Pit was ready to dash off right there and then, getting respect wasn't worth the nightmares, but then he reminded himself that Shulk saving him would have been in vain, so he resolved to tying his shoe (sandal?) to the log he was sitting on.
Shulk sat closer to him and murmured something along the lines of "Do what I say, when I say, got it?"
It didn't need an answer, so Pit gazed into the fire, mentally preparing himself for the scare of his life.

It took no discussion for them to decide that Pit should go first "Best for last, let's get the worst over with!"
Coming up with any story was hard for Pit, and he just wasn't scary. He was Pauletana - Every ones - favorite youngster. Who didn't mind if you ruffled his hair, or made him do some errands which could have been done twice as easily by you. He lived to please, not distress or scare! Nevertheless, he had to come up with something.
"Ok, so there was this little girl… no, a little boy. The little boy got lost in a desert… um forest…"
Shulk elbowed him, "Tell them a story about what happened that one time you got on Palutana's bad side, eh?"
With this advice in mind he restarted "Once there was this boy, and this boy was the most handsome and clever in the land. He was the first guard of uhh… Lady Pauline"
Despite their best efforts Sonic and Pittoo showed interest in the story.
"One day Lady Pauline brought in a jar of cookies, but these weren't any cookies. These were cookies baked by the grandmother of all grandmothers, and you can imagine how tempting these would be to a lesser soul." Pit himself was drooling a bit from the thought as he took a piece of roast beast from the skillet that Roy apparently was thoughtful enough to set it over the fire, changing his fate, giving the readers a glimmer of hope that he would indeed be a relevant character.
"So while Lady Pauline was off doing grocery shopping, the handsome young boy decided to sneak just one cookie. Before he even put it in his mouth he could taste it, softer than any angel's food, yet no crumbs fell. It was just the right sweetness, enough to bring a smile but you could swallow it without a bad aftertaste. He ate, or rather wolfed it down the taste left his mouth before he could even comprehend the savor that was occurring."
Everyone was interested for certain, but they weren't scared. Pit hoped he could fix that, and fast.
"Well, one thing left for another and he was eating one after another, and soon enough Lady Pauline came home to find his hand in the cookie jar. She was furious that not only had he taken so many of those expensive cookies, but went behind her back doing so. 'I'll deal with you how I deal with my thieves' Lady Paulie declared and lifted her staff. Before he knew it he was in a deep dungeon. All he could see was darkness. Somehow it was closing in on him, and the young, handsome, undeserving boy shrieked and begged for his life,"
As Pittoo listened he was deeply impressed with Pit's newfound morbidity and considered to himself if they could possibly be friends
"And Lady Pauline gave him mercy on the condition that he never stole again. He keeps his promise to this day, and they all lived happily ever after." Pit concluded with a deep breath, anticipating their wild applause all he got was 2 blank stares and a face palm. Pittoo was rethinking his consideration made earlier.
A.N. Whew, chapter 3 is over and done with. It was hard trying to make a reasonable story having character's that outside of SSB I'm totally unfamiliar with. And remember, I LIVE ON REVIEWS! The amount of reviews last chapter was a giant zero, so plz get to it!
