Have fun with this story. It features the same characters from "Dreamscape".
Many citizens of Smash City wondered what the Smash Brothers did while they were in their mansion. Now nobody had the courage to actually find out, but they were indeed curious of the going-ons in such a place, filled with such, eccentric fighters (to put it lightly).
Pow! Boom! Bang! Smack! Ker-pow!
A series of blows could be heard connecting in the back of the mansion, in a small plot of low grass; a blonde-haired bounty hunter was getting in a little practice by pummeling on the steadfast punching bag of the Smashers, SandBag. This five-foot, twenty-pound bag of sand stood dutifully in place as Samus virtually committed manslaughter on the blinking white bag.
"Raaaah!" roared Samus, delivering one last, bone-crushing blow to SandBag, effectively caving in its poor face
However, moments later its face popped back out and the receiver of Samus's vicious assault looked completely unscathed. Not a mark could be found on its leather-like hide. SandBag's assaulter stood a few feet away, sweating profusely and breathing heavily. With a day's worth of frustrations let loose on the unbreakable SandBag the skilled hunter let loose a smile of relief.
"Thanks SandBag, I really needed that." Samus said
Though he couldn't speak, the look on his face showed Samus just how happy he was that her abuse on him helped her to relax.
"See ya, SandBag." Replied Samus, waving bye to the unmoving bag
SandBag nodded in acknowledgement. Another good day's work for the punching bag; so he felt he deserved a good rest, so he'd be ready for the next Smasher that would unload on him.
"Time to get something to eat." Thought Samus, making her way to the kitchen after she made her way into the mansion
Opening the doors to the kitchen she was greeted with a familiar sight. Sitting at various counters on stools were those Samus considered her closet friends, even though you could never get her to admit it.
"Hyah Samus!" squealed the high-pitched voice of Peach, which caused Samus to visibly cringe
Well some of them were closer than others, and Peach was definitely listed under "others". But being the nice person she was Samus would at least acknowledge the princess (though at times she referred to Peach as a parrot.).
"Hey Peach." She replied in a less than enthusiastic expression
"Want something to eat?" Peach asked sweetly, "My treat."
Though she was sickeningly sweet and had a horrible choice in clothes (in Samus's opinion) Peach could cook circles around the fearless hunter while Samus herself could barely boil water. And with the feeling of hunger bearing down on her belly, her pride smartly took a back seat.
"Sure Peach." Replied Samus, her tone unchanging
"Great!" Peach squealed again and in response Samus cringed again, "Anything in particular?" she asked
"Surprise me." Replied Samus
With a nod Peach turned to prepare Samus a delicious meal. But the moment she did the elated expression on her face fell to utter depression. Unlike her fellow blonde, Peach wore her emotions like a neon sign set on high. She didn't want the others to see that Peach knew what Samus really thought of her.
"She still doesn't like me much." She thought
After the whole, "going into Samus's dreams" adventure the bounty hunter had seen Peach, Young Link, Pikachu, Yoshi, and even Mewtwo and surprisingly Bowser as Smashers she could trust with her life, but becoming good friends with the Choujin offspring would be a chore, especially for Peach. The two blondes seemed to be on opposite ends of the spectrum and it didn't look like either one would fully understand one another.
"I know what caused her to be the way she is, but I still don't get her." Peach though, "Maybe I never will, "She thought before sighing outwardly
"You okay Peach?" Young Link asked, downing his fifth bottle of milk
"Peach turned to the young boy and her face instantly lifted before she replied.
"Sure Young Link, I'm totally fine!"
"You and that damn milk." Muttered Bowser, "You're gonna be so constipated
"That's cheese." Replied Mewtwo
"Well cheese comes from milk, same thing!" barked Bowser
"Not really." replied Mewtwo
"Meh." Muttered Bowser, returning to his fifteen pounds of steak
Many still mourn for the cow it came from.
"Pika pi, pika chu, pi pi?" asked Pikachu
"Yes." Replied Mewtwo, "And speaking of which it would seem we have been given a package." The psychic cat replied
"Hmm?" Questioned Samus, watching as Yoshi brought in a large box
"Yeah, it was addressed to us." Replied Peach, "It got here a little while ago, just wanted to wait 'til you came back before we opened it." She replied
"It's got no return address and all it says is "From a fan"." Samus commented as she inspected the box
"Well of course, who wouldn't be a fan of me?" Bowser chuckled
"It's posed for all of the Smashers." Samus commented
"Meh." Replied Bowser
"Well let's open this thing up already!" Young Link cried out
Deviating from their meals the Smashers huddled around the box as Yoshi opened it.
"Pika!" squealed Pikachu happily
"Yoshi, yosh." Replied Yoshi, with a grin
"Cool." commented Young Link
"Heh." Chuckled Mewtwo
"Hmm?" wondered Samus
"Sooooooooooo cute!" squealed Peach
"Ya know, I was expecting chocolate." Replied Bowser, reaching in and pulling out…
A plushy version of himself, in all his glory. The entire box was filled with plushy versions of every single one of the Smashers, each made with excruciating detail.
"Pika pi!" Pikachu squealed again, pulling out a Pika plushy
"Yoshi!" laughed Yoshi, playing with the head of his plushy
"Hmm, whoever made these took intricate care in creating each one." Replied Mewtwo
"Someone doesn't have a life." Replied Samus, inspecting her own
Her plushy even had a plushy helmet that was removable for the main plushy.
"Oh, I think they're absolutely adorable." Cooed Peach, "Mine even has a plushy frying pan."
"Lucky you." Muttered Samus
As the day dwindled to an end the seven Smashers who were currently in the mansion were busy playing with their plushies, each in their own unique way.
The ball of electrical might, Pikachu, was charging his with static electricity, watching in amazement over the little plaything's ability to absorb large amounts of electrical energy.
The spiked Koopa King, Bowser, was using his for target practice after he discovered that the plushy was flame retardant.
The dino-dragon, Yoshi, was testing his vast intellect by playing a game of chess with his. Since the plushy was an unmoving toy Yoshi volunteered to move it's pieces for it.
The godly psychic cat, Mewtwo, was practicing exhorting his will on inanimate objects and succeeded in moving the small plushy as if it were a second body. The small collectable laughed in triumph.
The Hylian hero, Young Link, was playing a game of catch with his. Mind you he was alone, but this didn't stop the trouble youth, whose speed along allowed him to catch up with his own throws. It was truly a pathetic sight to behold.
Anyway, the last of the Smashers currently residing in the mansion were in the main living area, sitting on the magical couch with the television on. Peach was playing with her plushy as if it were a baby, cooing at it and commenting about how cute it was every five seconds. Meanwhile Samus was using hers as a stress-reliever, squeezing it in conjunction with Peach's cooing.
"As old as she is, she's acting like a five-year old." Samus thought, "If she says one more thing about how cute that damn thing is, I swear I'll knock her block off!" she growled in her head
Luckily for Peach, the Mushroom princess decided to end her endearing words and ask Samus a question.
"You know, we should definitely dress-up and go out on the town tonight." Replied Peach, "Just us girls. I think it'll be fun."
Samus turned to Peach as if she had grown a second head and a tail with a face on it. Peach had to have known Samus long enough to know what she was going to say next.
"No." she replied
"Oh come on, it'll be great." Replied Peach, standing up
"I even have a dress that'll go with…your figure." Peach replied, eyeing Samus
Samus didn't like the way Peach commented on her and was quick to retort.
"No." Samus replied, "And what about my figure?" she questioned with a glare
The glare flew over Peach's radar for she never noticed it and went right on with her explanation.
"Well…you're pretty buff and to be honest, a lot of dresses just aren't made for muscular girls. It's a crying shame." Peach replied, "But I have the perfect dress for a person like you who would probably rip through any other dress if they moved funny!" she said cheerfully
Samus was torn between throwing the couch through the window to relieve her anger or throwing Peach through the window to relieve her anger.
"I mean, we don't want you look like a fool in public." Replied Peach
Luckily for Peach, Samus decided on the former.
Outside a bird was picking a few twigs, most likely finding material for a nest. Today fortune would smile on the small avian creature as a couch was thrown through a window, scattering glass and splintering wood as it was smashed through. Miraculously the divine couch of the main living area remained unscathed.
"I'll be in my room." Calmly replied Samus as she took off
"Was it something I said?" Peach wondered, blissfully unaware
Night fell on the mansion and sleep fell upon the Smashers. The halls were quiet, veiled in a blanket of shadows, perfect conditions for an uninvited guest. Slowly moving through the halls, a shadowy figure emerged, thoughts of mischief on its mind.
Snore…snore…snore…snore…snore…snore…snore…snore…snore…snore…snore…
Bowser's deep throated snores could be heard in the hallway, even with the room door closed. In his room the Koopa King laid haphazardly on his back on his specially designed bed (How else do you think a spiked tortoise that weighs over two tons sleeps on a bed without crushing it?). His large chest rose and fell as he slept, his plushy resting on his chest, rising and falling with it as well.
A few feet away from his bed a small shadow appeared and moments later a figure rose from the shadow, staring at the large koopa in front of it. The darkness of the figure hid its identity, but slender hands could be seen through the darkness. Soon the hands began to glow a dark, purplish color and soon after, the plushy.
Moments later, Bowser gasped suddenly before falling under once again. In the dark a bright smile of success pierced the shadows, giving the room an eerie glow.
Laying on a pile of pillows the electrical mouse was curled up tightly with his plushy, deep in dreamland.
"Pi…pi…pi…pi…pi…" chirped Pikachu in his sleep, until his plushy began to glow purple
Lying in his bed, his plushy on the floor, Young Link the fighter of Hyrule slumbered away calmly through the night, though his hand slipped from the bed and fell to the floor, brushing up against his glowing plushy.
In another room another Smasher was curled up on a soft blanket, his small plushy leaning against his side. So deep in slumber, Yoshi never noticed his glowing collectable until it was too late.
Floating in the middle of his room the psychic cat Mewtwo was asleep, meditating at the same time, his plushy resting in his lap comfortably. Even with the immense powers of the mind that Mewtwo had he couldn't stop the glow his plushy began to emit.
The shadowy figure that had been looming about the mansion made its way to Peach's room, dark powers dancing at her sides. She stood at the foot of the princess's extravagant bed and raised her hands. However, before they could begin to glow the sleeping princess awoke, a dark feeling rising in her. Looking about her room Peach searched for any intruders and as she laid her eyes on her door, it closed, which worried her.
"Who's there?" she called, but nobody answered
In a slight panic, Peach rose from her bed, her pink nightgown swaying at her ankles. Luckily she had her trusty frying pan with her as she walked to her door and opened it up slightly, looking into the hall. Out of the corner of her eye she swore she saw something move through the shadows. But by the time she fully exited her room there was nothing.
"Bowser? Young Link? Pikachu? Yoshi? Mewtwo? Samus? Anyone?" she called, moving through the halls, "This better not be a trick or something."
No response.
"Hello?" she called near a particular Smasher's door, "Come on out whoever you are!" she called
"Who's yelling outside my…"
So surprised by the sudden noise, Peach swung her frying pan on reflex.
Clang!
After the connection Peach heard a body hit the ground and slowly opened her eyes to see who. She cringed when she discovered who it was.
"Oops."
A few minutes later…
"Ow…what hit me?" asked Peach's victim, Samus, as she rose from the floor
"Er…you uh…fell." Replied Peach, smiling as brightly as she could
"Uh…are you sure? I swear something metal hit me." Samus replied, rubbing her head
"Nope, you definitely fell; I saw it with my own eyes." Peach replied quickly
Whether she truly believed her or if the hit had screwed with her logic, Samus accepted Peach's explanation as she rubbed her head. Luckily for the bounty hunter she was used to being hit so it much cause for concern.
"What are you doing wandering around the halls anyway?" Samus asked, "You know you woke me up and I hate being woken up!" she growled
"Someone else was wandering around, I'm sure of it." Peach replied, "I just don't know who."
"Peach, are you sure you just didn't imagine it?" Samus asked, "Go back to sleep."
"We have five other Smashers in here with a tendency to mess around…" Peach replied, trailing off on purpose
Peach did have a point. If anyone was messing around, it would probably be the others. But Samus really didn't want to put up with having to yell and most likely fight with them. Unfortunately she didn't have a choice.
Fwoosh!
A fireball smashed into Samus's door frame, blowing the bounty hunter in her room while Peach was sent careening down the hallway.
"What the…?" Peach began, but never go the chance to finish as Young Link slashed at her with his blade
She barely managed to avoid the blow, stumbling away to get some distance, but Pikachu came up quickly and swiped her feet, sending her to the floor once again. Peach looked up just in time to see a Shadow Ball barreling down on her, luckily she was saved before the dark ball of energy could connect. Rushing from her room, Varia Suit and all, Samus fired a fully charged Charge Shot at the oncoming attack. The two blasts smashed into one another and before long effectively canceled one another out.
"Enough of this!" yelled Peach, rising up, brandishing her frying pan, "What's up with you guys!?"
There was no response from the group of attacking Smashers. Aside from a moan or groan the attacking Smashers were almost completely quiet as they charged the females.
"Yoshi…don't make me hurt you!" growled Samus, blocking Yoshi's powerful head butts
Mini-Shadow Balls, arrows, and small bursts of electricity came Peach's way, but the agile princess blocked them all with her reliable frying pan. The deflected attacks flew in all random directions, leaving nothing more than few scuff marks on the walls and floors.
"Okay, I don't know what's going on but I don't want to fight!" yelled Peach, hoping she could get through to her seemingly deranged friends, "Please, let's just talk about this!"
They didn't listen to her, but instead combined their attacks; encasing one of Young Link's bombs in electrical and shadow energy to create…a Thunder Shadow Bomb.
"That doesn't look good…" muttered Peach, readying her frying pan
The bomb was thrown and when it came close Peach swung to deflect, which was a very bad idea. The resulting explosion threw both shadow and electrical energy into her frying pan, which caused the princess incredible pain as well as having the power to shoot her down the hallway, right into the awaiting arms of Bowser.
Meanwhile, the intergalactic bounty hunter was having problems of her own. She could have dispatched with Yoshi with a well place Super Missile and normally she would, but something was different about how the dino-dragon was acting. Yoshi was not one to just fight for not apparent reason or blatantly ignore someone talking to him. Something was definitely up.
"Yoshi, listen to me…" she tried to say, but Yoshi was having none off it
Barraging her with a pummeling series of kicks the long-tongued fiend kicked off her arm cannon and swung his head around, smashing it into her and sending her straight into the mountain of muscle known as Bowser.
"Grraaaaaah!" she roared, "Let me go!"
However, even with the phenomenal strength granted to her by her suit, Samus was no match for the unrivaled monstrosity that was Bowser's raw power.
"Good job." They heard someone say
Stepping aside, Mewtwo, Young Link, Yoshi, and Pikachu allowed the speaker to reveal themself.
"No way…" muttered Peach, her eyes going as wide as saucers, "Mario sealed you away…"
"Oh he did…but now I'm back."
"Peach…why am I staring at a mirror image of you?" Samus asked, a curious eyebrow raised at the doppelganger
"That's because that's Shadow Queen, Demon of Darkness." Peach replied, "But you can't be here…Mario…"
"Sealed me away." Shadow Queen replied, "No need to repeat."
"How did you get out?" Peach demanded
"That's for me to know and for you to find out…but let's just say someone gave me a hand." Shadow Queen replied, "However, they couldn't return me to my full form so I am forced to take the appearance of your body…with a few improvements."
"Well…at least you're not wearing pink…" Samus commented
"Hey!" shrieked Peach, "And what's going on!?' she barked
"Why don't you ask your friend over there? She's probably already figured it out." Shadow Queen replied
"Huh?" muttered Peach, turning to Samus
"She took over their minds." Samus replied, "I could tell by the look in their eyes."
Peach raised an eyebrow before looking into the eyes of her friends. Her eyebrows went up in shock as she realized that there eyes were clouded over with darkness, complete and utter darkness.
"But how...?" Peach asked, dumbfounded
"The plushies…you sent them, didn't you?" Samus inquired
"You're correct…" replied the Shadow Queen, "I created each one by hand. They're vessels for the spirit." She replied
"So you didn't take over their minds, you just…sucked their spirits out and put them in plushies?" Peach asked, "Not very menacing." She thought
Plushies stealing souls...who knew?
"Ah yes, why fuddle with the mind when the spirit is so much more, vulnerable."
"Where are our friends!?" Peach demanded
"Your friends…heh heh heh heh…they're right here." Shadow Queen replied, opening a large bag she had with her to reveal the plushies of her possessed friends
"Help!" cried the plushy of Young Link
"Pikachu!" cried the plushy of Pikachu
"Yoshi!" cried the plushy of Yoshi
"Return me to my body!" yelled the plushy of Mewtwo
"I don't do puny!" yelled the plushy of Bowser
"Aren't they adorable?" Shadow Queen cackled
"Let them go or else!" barked Samus, trying her best to break free of Bowser
"You don't give any orders, only I do now." She said, "Boys, the plushies." She said, referring to Mewtwo and Young Link
The two Smashers lifted up the Samus and Peach plushies and pointed them at their respective blondes.
"I'll finish up with you two and then wait for the rest to show up." Shadow Queen said, "In no time I'll have control of every single one of you Smashers." She said
As gloved hands began to glow the two femme fatales could feel their very spirits being pulled from their bodies. Struggle as they may they could not free themselves from their possessed captor and it would only take moments before their spirits were ripped from their very bodies.
"Can't let…her win…" Peach thought, summoning the last of her strength in order to…cry
Tears began to flow down the face of Peach until a full blown river flooded from the princess's face.
Seconds later…
"Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!!!!!!"
The hallway of the Super Smash Brother's mansion became the backdrop for white-water rafting as Peach's emotions took over. Had it not been for the fact that many of the windows were open in the mansion the Smashers may have drowned due to Peach's overly sensitive emotional abilities. In the confusion Samus and Peach were thrown out of one of the mansion's window, from the second floor. Luckily they landed on their feet and without hesitation they broke out into a run to get as far away from their possessed allies as possible.
In such a hurry to get away the two girls didn't stop running until they reached the city, panting hard. It was a run, but they both thought they had to be far enough away to be safe, for the moment. It was at this time that the blondes made a startling realization.
"Peach, can I ask you something?" Samus asked, stooped over to catch her breath
"Yeah…what is it Samus?" replied Peach
"Why am I in a nightgown?" she asked
"Huh?"
"And why am I looking at myself?" she asked, "Please tell me I'm just looking in a mirror."
"Well then I must be looking in the same mirror 'cuz I'm looking at myself." Replied Peach
Both girls straightened up and happened to look into a glass window in front of them. Peach's jaw dropped as she uttered a horrific scream in an entirely different voice.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" she screeched,
"Samus…what's going on?" asked Peach, or rather Peach in Samus's body…
"Why? Does someone up there hate me or something?" Samus asked, "Anybody, anybody but her…" she mumbled
"Did we switch bodies?" Peach asked
Samus nodded, to stricken by the fact of the switch to speak.
"Oh no!" squealed Peach in dismay, "I gotta see what I look like!" she said, frantically pulling at the Varia Suit's helmet
Samus couldn't bring herself to tell Peach that it came off rather simply; she was still in shock over the whole ordeal. Eventually the switched princess managed to get the helmet off and stared at the window the moment it was off. Unlike Samus she didn't scream her head off, but the look on her face; or rather Samus's face was an obvious window to what she was feeling.
"No, no, no, no…" she said, "This won't do." She said, "Samus!?" she squealed
Taking hold of herself with a frantic look in her eyes she began to bawl right in front of herself.
"Samus! This is horrible!" she cried, "Shadow Queen is out, our friends are captured and we've switched bodies!" she cried, shaking Samus for all that she was worth, "And on top of that my hair's a mess!" She said, "I don't want to be stuck looking like this for the rest of my life! What'll we do Samus, what'll we do!"
"Peach…" Samus said, trying to quell the raging female, "Peach." She said again, a little louder, "PEACH!" she yelled, exploding into a fury, cracking the window in front of her
Peach quickly backed a few feet away and allowed Samus time to cool off.
"Whoa…" muttered Samus, looking at her now pampered hands in disbelief, "What just happen?"
"T-Those were my emo-powers at work." Replied Peach with a slight quiver
Peach had never realized just how quick to anger she was until she saw it first hand.
"Sorry…" Samus said, before returning to what she was trying to say before, "Look. I'm not exactly sure how, but we will take care of that Shadow Queen, we will save the boys, we will get our bodies back, and I will get you back for that crack about how I look."
Peach smiled sheepishly but nodded. If anyone could get them out of this, it was Samus.
"Come on, let's find somewhere secluded." Samus said
"But Samus…I'm not that kind of girl…especially with myself."
Samus wasn't sure if Peach was kidding or not and she really didn't want to figure it out.
"Just come on!" she barked, grabbing hold of Peach's (or rather her) wrist and pulling
That's when the petite woman realized just how different Peach's body was to her own. For Samus it felt like pulling a fidgeting boulder. It took quite a bit of effort on Samus's part but she managed to pull Peach into a dark alley, away from any prying eyes.
"Okay…" Samus said, getting her bearings, "First things first…I gotta get out of this thing." She said, referring to the pink nightgown, "It's a bit drafty. Couldn't you wear something practical to sleep?"
"Well sorry. I didn't think I'd wake up in the middle of the night to fight my possessed friends and an evil demon I thought was sealed away. If that had been the case I would have wore full-body armor to bed."
"Cut the lip and help me find something to wear."
"How about I rip your spirit out instead." They heard someone say
Turning to the sound the two blondes watched as the Shadow Queen emerged from…well…the shadows, hence the name.
"Hiding in the shadows. That's a poor choice against the likes of me." The Shadow Queen said, "Boys." She called, and at her commanded the possessed Smashers appeared, "Get them." She said
"Run!" yelled Samus
Both girls took off in a flash. Well Samus anyway, Peach was having a hard time maneuvering in her new body. She felt sluggish, almost as if gravity had it out for her.
"Samus!" she whined, "Wait up!"
Samus looked back to see that she had very much left Peach in the dust.
"Whoa…didn't realize Peach was this fast." Samus thought as she ran
For Samus it didn't even seem as if she had much weight at all, almost as if Peach was lighter than a feather. Rounding a corner Samus came face-to-face with Yoshi, a dark blank look in his eyes.
"Crap…" muttered Samus, turning around to run down another alley
However, that escape route was soon cut off as Mewtwo teleported into her path.
"Hell…" she muttered and tore down the middle of the alley way in an attempt to get away
But stopping her in her tracks was Young Link, sword drawn.
"Damn…" Samus muttered, backing away slowly
It was at this time that Peach had finally caught up, with Bowser and Pikachu right on her tail, effectively boxing the two in.
"Uh…" she groaned, "I'm running out of curses…" muttered Samus
Soon the girls were back-to-back, surrounded by their under the influence friends.
"This doesn't look very good." Peach commented
"Yah think?" quipped Samus, "We can't handle them all at once. Need to get out of here." She said, looking towards the rooftops
"Just give it up already." Shadow Peach said, coming into view, "I'm taking control and there is nothing you can do to stop me, so make it easier on yourselves and just surrender."
"The only thing I'm gonna do is send you break your ribs after a get my body back!" barked Samus, "And besides, you haven't caught us yet." She said, bending down
The switched bounty hunter aimed to jump for the nearby fire escape, hoping Peach would follow her actions. If they were quick enough they would be able to get some distance between themselves and their foes before they could catch up. However, her plan didn't go exactly as she had originally thought. It was not that she didn't make the jump, that wasn't the problem. The problem was that she overshot the jump, flying clean past the ladder leading to the fire escape. It wasn't until she scaled half the building did she realize just how high Peach could jump.
"Wow…what a jump." Peach thought, looking up at her high flying female-in-crime, "Oh, I should follow." She thought, bending down to jump
Jumping, Peach didn't realize that her weight wouldn't let her jump nearly as high as Samus did until she smashed head first into the side of fire escape, bending the bars. Luckily she was wearing a helmet. Before she fell back down to the awaiting Smashers she through out her right harm, forgetting that it was surrounding by a cannon. Although, the cannon automatically released its tractor beam, which shot up, right toward Samus who had grabbed the edge of the top most part of the fire escape.
"Huh?" Samus mumbled, hearing the crackle of electricity
By the time she looked down the beam had already wrapped around her leg, sending a high level of volts into her.
ZAP!
With electricity pouring into her it was all Samus had to keep from releasing her grip and falling. Meanwhile, the tractor part of the word "tractor beam" kicked in, but in reverse, pulling Peach up toward Samus quickly.
"Watch out!" yelled Peach, but there was really nothing Samus could do at the moment
WHAM!
Well…at least they could say them made it to the roof of the building, just not in the way that either would have liked.
"I loath you." Muttered Samus
"Sorry."
But before Samus could rant any further Mewtwo had already flown up to greet them. Without thinking Samus threw her frying pan, which she pulled out from within her nightgown, at the floating cat but Mewtwo dodged, powering up a Shadow Ball moments later. He would have thrown it had it not been for the fact that the frying pan acted like a boomerang. And like all boomerangs, they had a knack for second trips.
CLANG!
The frying pan cluttered on the rooftop violently while Mewtwo fell to the ground. Samus was quick to retrieve it before bouncing away like a jackrabbit over the rooftops.
"Samus! Stop leaving me!" yelled Peach, taking off after her
Meanwhile, Shadow Peach looked at Mewtwo in disgraced as the psychic cat picked himself up after he crashed landed.
"This is getting me nowhere. We'd eventually catch them but it take to long." She said, "But I have a better idea." She said, smiling wickedly, "Why try to catch what will come to you eventually?"
"Peach." Called Samus, "We can stop running now." Samus said, landing on the roof of a convenience store
"Whew, we got away."
"No, they just stopped following." Replied Samus
"Oh."
Samus sighed and sat down, her face was downtrodden and she looked sapped of energy.
"You okay?" Peach asked, joining her on the roof and removing the suit's helmet
Samus sighed again, not responding.
"Samus?" Peach called, "Are you hurt?" she asked
"No." replied Samus
"Then what's wrong?" Peach asked
Samus gave her a look as if the answer to that question was painstakingly obvious. But Peach had an oblivious look on her face, which was weird because Samus was really looking at an oblivious look on her original face. Even though she really wasn't up to it Samus decided to explain anyway.
"Look at me…look at you." She replied, looking at her gown, "Normally we couldn't handle all those guys at once but now, like this we're just running like scared little mice." She said, "That stupid Shadow Queen's gonna turn this city upside down with the others and all we can do is hopefully not get caught and wait for help, and that's if we're lucky." She said, before sighing yet again, "Oh what am I saying. Things are hopeless. We're screwed. We might as well leave the city before Shadow Queen catches up with us cause…"
SMACK!!
Samus put her hand to her cheek (or rather Peach's cheek) after the metallic slap of Peach's (or Samus') hand going across her face. She looked up in disbelief and saw Peach look back down with a face of irritation.
Ha! Taking the story off right here! Hope you enjoyed the first part; the second part wraps up this little adventure so don't go anywhere.
