Heroes
"So you are one of us. That's good otherwise I'd have no one to talk to." Samus said.
"What about us." Peach asked her and Zelda looking a little hurt.
"Well, you two…have boyfriends and all that; I mean Celest is just like me, if you think about it." She said swiftly.
"Well that's true." Zelda said as Link walked over to her.
"What's true?" Link asked.
"Don't worry about it." Samus said plainly.
My head was spinning…a hero? What was I thinking! I should not be anyone…Fitting in! I'm a real jerk… and before anyone could notice I slipped out of the room and hurtled toward the stadium to get a lot of fresh air.
"Hey…were did she go?" Samus asked turning around.
"I just saw her bolt for the door, probably needed some fresh air or something." Ike said joining their little group.
"She really does not like crowds does she?" Pit asked joining in the conversation as well.
"Not at all." Lucario said. "She likes her personal space, as do some of us." He said glancing at Samus.
"Well of course I like personal space…stop staring." She snapped at Lucario and the tip of his lip twitched into a smile as he turned his head.
"Has anyone seen Celest?" Mario popped up in their group.
"No." They all said at once.
"She went out to get some fresh air." Lucario said bluntly.
"Oh…well if you see her tell her she will be fighting with you the next round as the blue team."He said pointing to Lucario absentmindedly. "Against Samus and Fox on the red team." Samus looked up and nodded silently.
"That should be interesting, common Zel lets go grab a good seat." Link said and she nodded as they rushed off.
"Well at least she is on our side." Sonic mumbled.
"It is a good thing." Fox said looking around.
"Hey, what are you guys so doom and gloom about?" Falco asked. "Come on that's one more hero."
"But does she even want to be a hero." Meta Knight said in less than a whisper.
"Of course she…" Falco trailed off remembering how he and Marth had kind of pressured her into it.
"Hey Fox!" Mario yelled. "Your match is next you're on the red team with Samus." Fox's face fell a little and Falco began to laugh.
"I'm not missing this one." Falco said hurrying off.
"It's great how my best friend can't wait to see my butt kicked." Fox mumble walking away. Sonic looked at Meta Knight.
"So so you want to go watch?" Sonic asked.
"Of course." Meta knight said simply.
"I'll race you."
"I don't think so." Meta Knight said gliding away slowly, but Sonic, being Sonic, still broke the sound barrier as he raced off for the first good seat.
"Why does he always get the best seat?" Toon Link whined as he, Lucas, Ness, and Larry (The oddly named Pokémon trainer) entered the stadium…dead last. He was looking at Sonic who sat smugly, front row, dead center.
"Because he's so fast." Larry muttered, and their group went and sat in the very back row. Larry had to let each of his Pokémon out for his little friends to sit on so they could see over everyone's heads.
