A/N: The following chapter is graphic to a degree. Children are advised to stay away as it contains swearing and partial/Mild nudity. If you do not wish to read this chapter, please leave now. Wow you're still here? Ok then... Um... You can go read now. The story I mean. You don't have to listen to me anymore. So go read the story. I said do it! You're still here? Well then, you have a very annoying habit of defying orders. You should be very ashamed of yourself. Now go read the story before I blow a fuse.
Roy had received several thwacks on the head for pulling off that stunt. Lucina had chased him around the outside of the Mansion before cornering him. She then proceeded to punch him in the side of his large head. Not hard enough to knock him out, but it still hurt pretty damn hard. He complained loudly, but Lucina shrugged it off and turned back towards the mansion.
"Damnit," Roy moaned.
But Lucina hadn't heard him. She just ignored him and walked inside. Roy decided to do something instead of complain and followed her.
"Take that you bastard!"
Roy stared in shock as Marth tried to fend off some terrible beast with a wooden beam. The beast looked like a wolf, but it had no solid shape; it was as though it was made up of bees... Then Roy realised that the wolf was made of bees! Or he thought they were bees. They attacked in sync, and there were thousands of them. There were dark as the deepest night and made a horrible droning noise.
"Marth! What's going on?"
"Bloody Master Hand suddenly went crazy and erupted in a cloud of... Whatever these black things are."
Roy panicked as the beast set its eyes on him. The beast roared and ran at him, but Roy was much too small to get hit by the enormous wolf.
"Roy! We have to kill it!"
Roy thought the voice was Marth's, but Lucina stood next to him, yelling over the drone of the beast.
"No S*** Sherlock!"
Lucina gave him a distasteful frown.
"My room is closer to reach from here. I'll suit up and then we can get to your room so you can too. Then we can take down this... Thing," he said.
Lucina nodded and followed Roy as he dashed up the stairs. In no time, they had reached Roy's room. He opened the door and gestured for Lucina to go in, and closed the door behind them.
"We don't have much time," Roy panted, "Marth can't hold on forever. That thing is going to get him killed!"
"What are you dawdling for then?" Lucina yelled.
Roy quickly fastened his chest plate, followed by his arm and leg guards. Finally he put on some boots and tossed a spare chest plate to Lucina.
"Put it on," Roy commanded.
"This'll barely protect me," she exclaimed.
"Need I remind you of your current amour situation?"
Lucina looked up and down her body, face palming as she realised she was still wearing her bikini. She reluctantly picked up the chest plate and fastened it. It may have been a little big, but that offered more protection.
"Now to your room," Roy said, "You ready?"
Lucina nodded and they burst out the door, Roy with his sword in hand.
"Go, go, go!" He yelled as he pushed Lucina in the direction that led to her room.
Whilst running, Roy started to hurt on his thighs. The board shorts underneath his armour were chafing him.
"F*** this goddamn chafing. Should've changed my pants as well."
Lucina either didn't hear or ignored him.
They reach her room without any difficulty, but Roy was worried for Marth's safety. Was he doing okay?
"Look, you get changed and then come help," Roy instructed, "I need to get in there and help Marth."
Lucina looked worried for a moment but nodded her head, her long hair bouncing up and down. Roy exited the door, only to find himself face to face with a humanoid figure. But it was giant. And it was made of those evil bees.
"S*** there are more?"
Roy slammed the door in the giant's face, entering Lucina's room once again. A pounding began on the door. That wooden piece of junk wouldn't hold together much longer. He looked around for somewhere to hide, and settled his eyes on the metal door of the bathroom. That should've held.
Roy burst into the bathroom, locking the door behind him with one ear held against the metal, completely oblivious to the bare chested Lucina behind him who was still getting changed.
"Eek-"
Roy slapped her across the face and stayed pressed against the door.
"What-?"
"Shut up! He'll hear us!"
Lucina was confused. He? Who? But her common sense won over and she turned red with rage.
"What the hell are you doing in here?" She yelled.
Roy slapped her across the face again and stared into her eyes.
"I told you to shut up," he said through gritted teeth, "But if you must know, I'm trying to stay alive."
Lucina was confused as to why he wasn't getting embarrassed by the situation. She certainly was.
"Why aren't you-?"
"For the love of God, I'm not a damn pervert!" He whispered, "I'm trying to stay alive! Is that not okay with you?"
She could hear the fear and anger in his quavering voice, as she realised he was telling the truth. Something was out there, and whatever it was, Roy was terrified of it.
"There are more of them. More of those bee things. They're multiple entities at once. It is both a wolf and a giant at the same time. God knows what else, but I am really scared."
Lucina couldn't quite wrap her head around what he had said, but she got the important parts. More, multiple entities, scared.
Lucina stared dumbfounded and Roy stared at her looking irritated.
"Are you just gonna stand there shirtless all day or are you gonna put on some damn armour?"
She looked down at her dangling cleavage and flushed a dark shade of Crimson.
"Who the hell are you?" She asked as she hurriedly put on the rest of her clothes.
Roy didn't know how to react to the question. He could stare at a half naked female without emotion, but he couldn't answer a damn question about his own identity.
"I'm Roy..." He said after a while, "Pleased to meet you."
He held out his hand towards Lucina with a stupid grin, asking for a handshake.
"F*** you," she cursed and punched him in the shoulder.
How many punches had Roy taken in the past 2 days?
Lucina attached her own chest plate and picked up her sword, her face determined.
"Did you dunk it in insect repellent?" Roy chuckled.
"You really are an idiot."
Lucina walked out of the bathroom to find her door in smithereens and most of her stuff on the floor.
"Roy! What happened?"
"That happened," Roy said, pointing a finger at a giant figure staring at them through the broken doorway.
Lucina's first instinct was to run. The thing was staring directly at them. She didn't know how she knew, she just had the feeling. Then Roy put his hand on her shoulder and smiled uncertainly.
"Get down."
She didn't know what he meant, but she did as he said, crouching down low to the floor. The next thing she knew, she felt a sharp pain in her left shoulder. Roy had used her as a launch pad, and flew up towards the giant's head, striking it with his short sword. She noted that he had remembered to use her left shoulder, which was almost useless in combat. Maybe he had manners after all. Either that or it was a 50/50 chance. She decided it was probably the latter.
She dashed towards the giant, trying to slice through the giant's leg, to no avail. The bees just kept dodging and reforming. Then why did Roy's attack succeed?
"It's head! Attack it at the head!" Roy yelled, balancing on one of the giant's shoulders as it tried to swat him away.
Lucina didn't know what was so significant about the head, but she trusted him. She jumped up towards the head, swiping at it as it tried to shoot lasers at her. Apparently it had F***ing laser vision now. She swiped it it again, but her fatigue allowed it to dodge her attack, throwing Roy off in the process. The giant caught Lucina in its hand and Roy in the other. It slowly began to apply pressure to its captives. Lucina felt as though her ribs might crack. This was how she would die. To bees of all things! She closed her eyes, feeling herself losing consciousness.
"Die you MotherF***er!"
She heard the voice but didn't see it's owner. However she heard the drone of the bees suddenly cease, and she was plummeting to the ground. She was going to have a long while in Dr. Mario's office. Just before she hit the ground, she felt a giant hand catch her and she looked up to see the face of a huge gorilla. It was Donkey Kong. That voice before didn't sound like Donkey Kong's though.
She turned her head and saw Roy falling and landing on top of Marth, who collapsed under the weight. Roy was out cold and Marth looked like he had taken a huge beating. He had cuts all over his arms, a blood stream down the side of his face and he was covered in dark soot. But despite all that, he was alive.
"Marth, what happened?" Lucina asked with a worried expression.
"Cool your jets drama queen," Marth coughed pathetically, "DK saw me fighting and went off to fetch my sword before helping me in combat. Thanks man!"
He directed that last part towards the large furry animal. DK grinned proudly.
"Now if you'll excuse me, I think I need medical attention," Marth continued.
DK walked over and scooped up all 3 sword fighter in his powerful arms, taking them off towards the medical treatment facilities.
A/N: Congratulations! You made it through reading the chapter! You deserve a cookie! Anyway, I decided to mostly do this chapter in Lucina's mind, because I honestly was getting kinda bored with Roy's thoughts. I thought this would be more interesting.
