"Haha, that was hilarious!" shouted Ness. "Let's prank another person. Whaddya think, TL?

"Let's prank Sonic," suggested TL. "He always insults us and calls us 'stupid teenage dorks.'"

"...HE'S GOING DOWN," said Ness.


While Sonic was at the bar down the street, Ness and TL snuck into his room. Luckily, his roommate Snake was still at the hospital due to his accident in Chapter 2, so the two kids didn't have to worry about anyone ratting them out. Upon entering Sonic's room, they saw that there was a large race track outside in the patio. The track zigzagged and swirled all about, covering half of the patio. The other half consisted of Snake's weapons and armor, laying on the many tables in the grass. They went outside to check out the incredible sight.

"Man, this race track is HUGE," pointed out Ness.

"Yeah, Sonic always runs around on it to practice his running," informed TL. "Dude, we should, like, totally put something on it to make him slip. Like this banana peel that Diddy Kong threw at me during today's brawl match." He pulled out a slimy yellow banana peel from his pockets.

"Funny, he threw one at me too," said Ness, also retrieving a moldy banana peel from his shorts pocket. They went to the gigantic track and placed the bananas in the middle of the road.

"There, that should do it," said Ness. "Now, let's wait for Sonic to get back." The two teens then hid in the closet of the room, waiting for Sonic's arrival. Soon enough, Sonic came sauntering into the room and walked on over to the bathroom where he took a dump.

"Hurry up," muttered TL, holding his camcorder and ready to record. At last, Sonic exited the bathroom and headed on over to the track. He cracked his knuckles and stretched his legs before proceeding to run on the track.

"Ooh, he's gonna start running on it!" said Ness, no longer whispering. "Get the camera and let's go!" He opened the closet door and rushed out, TL following shortly behind and holding up the camera. All of a sudden, Sonic began dashing around on the track, defying the laws of physics with his crazy speed.

"Heheh, I'm on a roll today," said Sonic happily. Distracted by his success, he was unable to spot the banana peel in front of him, and as the bottom of his sneaker came in contact with the mushy fruit, he slipped and fell hard onto the wooden track.

"OOF!" he cried. "Ugh, how did this banana get here? ...Must be Diddy Kong's fault. After all, it's his fault that the stupid slipping mechanic is in the game anyway. I'm gonna kick his butt in the next brawl match," Then Sonic began running again, only to trip over the second banana peel.

"Okay, THAT'S IT!" screeched Sonic, overwhelmed by his sudden failure. "I'M GONNA BEAT UP THAT STUPID MONKEY RIGHT NOW! BRING IT ON, YOU IDIOT APE!" Seething with rage, Sonic stomped to the front door and was about to leave when he saw something out of the corner of his eye.

"Huh? Who's there?" he demanded. He turned to see that it was Ness and TL, recording his embarrassing incident with a fancy camcorder.

"HEY! What's the big deal?! Fine, if you want to play dirty, then LET'S GO!" yelled Sonic. He zipped towards Ness and swiftly ran around him, the force causing Ness to spin around and fall down.

"Aaaah! Watch it!" said Ness as Sonic made him fall several times.

Sonic then snatched Ness's signature baseball cap and ran off towards the patio.

"Not cool, dude. Give it back!" shouted Ness angrily. He charged towards Sonic, attempting to swipe back his hat; however, Sonic was just too fast for him.

"Haha, YOU'RE TOO SLOW!" taunted Sonic. "C'mon, step it up!"

"Grrr..." growled Ness. He watched as Sonic leapt back onto the racetrack and began dashing quickly around on it.

"Oh, not you don't!" hollered Ness, leaping onto the track. "Two can play that game!" Ness then began concentrating hard, trying out his PSI powers. "PK Teleport!" And with that, Ness began dashing at an incredible speed, following the curves and bumps of the track. Soon, he had already caught up to the speedy Sonic.

"H-hey! How'd you get here so fast?!" asked a surprised Sonic.

"Give...me...back...my...HAT!" yelled Ness, sprinting alongside Sonic. He extended his skinny arm and reached for the red baseball cap.

"No way!" replied Sonic. "This is what you get for messing with me. Now, if you-"

Ness sighed. "PK Rockin'!" Suddenly, many red and blue shapes began surrounding Sonic and he was blasted with a powerful psychokinesis attack.

"OUCH!" screamed Sonic, pushed back by the powerful attack. He fell right on top of Snake's half of the yard, which was a bad idea considering it was surrounded by explosive weapons of all sorts.

"Oh... no..." gasped Sonic. The weapons quickly exploded, engulfing Sonic in a cloud of dust and smoke. After a few minutes, the air began to clear up, revealing a heavily-bruised and injured Sonic.

"That's...it..." panted Sonic weakly, "get out...of...my...room."

"Hold on!" started TL. "Can we put the video of you falling and exploding on Youtube?"

"Well, when you put it that way... NO! GET OUTTA HERE!" yelled Sonic, mustering all the strength he had left. "And one more thing... Nobody likes your cel shaded weirdo graphics in a BRAWL game, TL! And Ness, Earthbound sold AWFULLY in America so just shut up and take your dumb hat with you! Now go take your acne and hormones elsewhere, you stupid teenagers!

"Okay, okay! Sheesh! Calm down!" said TL. Meanwhile, a booming voice was heard through the intercom.

"Ness, TL! You have both been selected to battle in the next brawl. I buzzed your room earlier, but Lucas informed me that you two were in Sonic and Snake's room for some weird reason... Anyways, please hurry up," said the voice.

"C'mon, TL, let's get outta here," said Ness. "Master Hand is calling us." They quickly exited the room without another word, slamming the door on their way out.

"AND DON'T COME BACK!" hollered Sonic. "Finally, those rotten kids are gone. Stupid immature kids." All of a sudden, Snake entered the room, fully recovered.

"Hey, Sonic, I'm back," announced Snake. "...Sonic?" He searched the room for his hedgehog roommate and then wandered off into the patio.

"Hey, roomie," said Sonic weakly, still hurt from the previous explosion.

"What did you do?! DID YOU DESTROY MY WEAPONS?" growled Snake.

"No no, it was Ne-" started Sonic.

"I don't care! I spent $3000 on that high-quality military gear and weapons, and you destroyed it in a matter of seconds!" stormed Snake. "Fine, if you think it's all fun and games to destroy my stuff, let's see how you like it if I destroy YOURS!" With that, Snake lunged at Sonic's side of the room and picked up a golden ring sitting on the bedstand. Then he smashed it in half, crushing it to pieces and denting it horribly.

"No!" cried Sonic, too bruised to stop Snake. "You're making a big...mistake...oh...I see the light..." Sonic then passed out.

"Uh, what did I just do?" pondered Snake. "Oh well." He grabbed a beer from the fridge, some pretzels, and sat down on the ragged old couch, turning on the television. "Ooh, the ongoing brawl matches are on." He watched as a match between Pikachu, Ness, and TL took place onscreen. Pikachu was spamming thunder (like usual), zapping Ness and TL and inflicting much pain on them.

"Ahahaha! Show 'em who's boss, you yellow rat!" laughed Snake, cheering on Pikachu. He ate a pretzel and chugged down his beer, watching the matches intently.
