Sorry for taking so long to update! I had a lot of school work and I got sick. But I still wrote during school so don't think I forgot about this. Thanks for dropping by. Enjoy! :)

Oh yeah, I forgot to warn you.. There's obvious MarthxSamus and a tiny, tiny, tiny, bit of IkexPeach and MarthxSheik… You'll see why when you read it.


"Hey, wake up, Sheik," a soft voice said.

I turned away from it, pulling the blanket up to my nose. "No. leave me be for a couple of hours," I mumbled. The covers were torn away from me, the cold air blowing against my exposed legs. I shivered and felt around for my blanket. Never again will I sleep in shorts I thought to myself.

"Come on. Just get up and get dressed."

I sighed, loud enough for Zelda to hear. Sitting up, I shielded my eyes from the sun, giving her a nasty stare.

"Didn't you forget what today is?" she asked, rifling through her closet, even though she was already dressed.

I swung my legs over my bed. "No, I remember." Today, I had a date with Ike. He had asked me yesterday afternoon while we were training. We were starting to hang out more often and I had gotten to know him better. Zelda seemed more excited than I was. She pulled out her red dress and looked from me to the dress and back again before she shook her head and returned it. "Wait, you think I'm going to wear a dress?" I asked, wide-eyed.

She winced, like I had caused her physical pain. "I was kind-of hoping you would?" she mumbled, playing with a loose strand of hair. I shook my head and went to my closet. "Oh come on! You'll look so great in a dress! Remember that time you made me wear your Sheikah outfit? An eye for an eye," she pleaded.

I opened my closet door and looked around. "No way. Zelda, this isn't a formal date. We're just going to sit by the lake outside the Smash Mansion and have a picnic. It's impossible to sit in a dress outside so why would I wear one?" I said, pulling out my normal outfit.

"One of these days, you are going to wear a dress. I will make sure," Zelda said, a humorous glint passing over her blue crystals. I rolled my eyes as I put on my clothes and started to braid my hair.

Zelda came over to my bed and took the cowl away before I could put it on. "You are not wearing this to your date," she said, tossing it back into my closet.

"Why not?"

"What if he tries to kiss you?"

"Then he'll pull it down. Problem solved."

"No, that wouldn't be romantic. Trust me, Sheik. It'll only get in the way."

"Fine," I muttered.

She smiled at her small victory. "Now come on. I'm starving and I have a match later," she said, heading for the door. We entered in the hallway and saw Marth and Samus down the hall, making out.

"Get a room!" I called out. Zelda grabbed my arm, and led me down the hall, away from the couple. I looked over my shoulder to see Samus give me the finger. I laughed as we continued down the hall and reached the stairs. The stairs led to the big lounge room that was connected to both the kitchen and dining room. Breakfast was already served and we went to our usual table, where both Peach and Link were already sitting.

"Good morning!" Peach greeted, smiling.

Link stood up and pulled Zelda's chair back for her to sit. "Good morning, Zelda. I hope you slept well," Link said.

"Good morning to both of you," she answered, thanking Link with a smile. I sat in my usual spot, Zelda to my left and an empty chair for Samus on my right. On the other side of Zelda sat Link and next to him was Peach. Marth sat on the other side of Samus while there was only one chair empty. Ike will soon be sitting with us if all goes well. I looked over at Ike who was sitting at another table with Pit, Lucas, Ness, and Captain Falcon. They were eating but also laughing at one of Captain Falcon's jokes. Toon Link soon joined them, taking a seat next to Ike. He playfully punched Ike's buff arm. Ike smiled and gave the miniature Link a noogie. I wonder if Ike is good with kids.

"Sheik?" I felt someone elbow my side.

"What?" I asked, dumbfounded as I looked to Zelda.

"I asked if you wanted to come with me to get food," Zelda said.

"She was too busy staring at her man," Samus said, pulling out her chair and sitting next to us. Marth took a seat next to her.

"I was not," I said, defensively, feeling a blush color my cheeks. Samus grinned, knowing she was right when she saw color enter my cheeks. Zelda took my hand and led me towards the breakfast table. She handed me a plate and fork and we looked at the variety of food before us. I helped myself to waffles and strawberries. Zelda took pancakes and drizzled syrup on top. I took a bottle of apple juice while she took orange juice. We returned to our table and sat down. Link was telling Peach about all the monsters he's faced. Marth and Samus were talking to each other. Zelda started eating and listening to Link's story. I took a mouthful of waffles and stared off, my eyes soon wondering to Ike's table. He was racing both Captain Falcon and Pit to see who could finish their stack of pancakes and scrambled eggs first. Pit looked like he was ready to puke from consuming a large amount of his pancakes. Captain Falcon and Ike, on the other hand, were both still shoveling food into their mouths, trying to fill the bottomless pits they called their stomachs. I saw Ike begin to slow down but Captain Falcon kept trucking. He soon finished his plate.

"YES!" he declared, holding up his empty plate like a trophy.

Ike put his hands up in defeat. "Fine, you win," he said, pulling out his wallet. Pit did the same, each handing Captain Falcon a twenty dollar bill. "One of these days, I'm going to win," Ike stated.

"Dream on," Captain Falcon said, chugging down his orange juice.

Something pinched my arm. "You're doing it again," Samus whispered to me.

"Sorry," I muttered, not bothering to deny it. I took a bite of my waffles.

"So, Zelda, who are you facing today?" Peach asked.

Zelda quickly swallowed before answering. "It's a stamina match. Me versus Snake, Pit, and Donkey Kong," she stated wiping her mouth with a napkin.

"Where at?" Samus asked

"Temple," Zelda answered, taking a sip of her orange juice.

"Well this should be interesting. Do you have a plan to win?" Samus inquired.

Zelda paused for a moment before shaking her head. "My only plan is to stay alive," she said, a small smile on her face.

"Yeah, just watch out for Snake's mines.."

I turned my attention back to Ike's table. He was playing cards with Diddy Kong, Pit, and Toon Link. He looked up from his game and caught my eyes. Ike smiled and winked, causing my face flush. I looked down at my waffles. Hot damn. I picked up my fork and resumed eating. Lesson learned: Never leave the room without a cowl. I finished eating my waffles and picked at my strawberries. Zelda had also finished her plate and asked me to come with her to put the dirty plates away. I nodded and followed her to the kitchen. She took my plate and started washing them while I finished my apple juice.

"Alright, I'm going to go get ready for the match," Zelda said, stacking the clean plates away.

"Do you think you'll need me to switch in?" I asked

She paused before shaking her head and smiling. "I think I got this one," she said.

"Alright. I'll be watching from the stands then." I tossed my empty bottle in the recycling bin. Heading back to the dining room, I saw Snake, Pit, and Donkey Kong heading to the arena entrance point.

"Hey Sheik, you want to come with us to find good seats?" Samus asked as she came towards me. Marth was following close behind her.

"Sure," I agreed, following them in silence. Once we reached the stands, we saw few smashers and many human spectators. We took seats at the top of the stands. The large screen TV showed who was brawling and their life percentage. It was a 300hp stamina match. The camera zoomed in and gave you a first person view of the temple, showing you almost every inch before zooming out and showing you the full Temple in the sky. More smashers came in, taking their seats. I saw Ike walking in with Ike. They both sat 3 rows ahead of us. Once all the smashers took their seats, the first brawler made their entrance, Donkey Kong.

"3!" Pit descended in.

"2!" Zelda entered.

"1!" Lastly came Snake.

"GO!"

Everyone around us started cheering, calling out who they think will win. Come on Zelda! I thought to myself. She spawned in the middle area that led to the lower chamber. Snake, who spawned behind her, jumped over the platform and dropped a grenade on Zelda, who quickly rolled away and let it fall to the bottom area. Donkey Kong and Pit were already fighting, each keeping their hp balanced. Snake joined them, jumping right in while carrying a grenade. Zelda sent out Din's fire while they were distracted and hit all 3 at once. Soon after joining the fray, she had the lowest hp of the four. She took note of that and backed out, using ranged attacks. Pit noticed and used his blue arrows to try to get to her. She simply deflected it with her blue crystal. Donkey Kong came up behind Pit and gave him a fully charged punch to the back and Pit was out. Donkey Kong didn't waste any time starting to charge another punch. Zelda cautiously approached but decided to go around and attack from behind. But Snake's mines littered the field. One wrong step and she was out. DON'T STEP THERE! I mentally screamed. Zelda froze, as if she heard me. She took a few steps back and sent out Din's fire. She was too busy casting it that she didn't notice Donkey Kong coming from behind with a fully charged punch. Behind you! Side-step! She released the fireball, causing the mine to explode and sidestepped as soon as Donkey Kong threw the punch. She used her side-smash, and Donkey Kong was down. All that was left was Zelda and Snake. Zelda had 50hp while Snake was still at 100. I knew who was going to win. Snake could control the field better than Zelda could. I got up and headed towards the arena entrance to meet up with Zelda when the match was over. In halls, I saw a man with blue hair kissing a girl with blond hair. At first glance, I thought it was Marth and Samus. But upon a closer look, I realized it wasn't them. It was Ike and Peach. My heart fell and my vision blurred. I turned around and ran the other way as warm tears streamed down my face. I nearly ran over Kirby as I sprinted towards my room. The pink marshmallow seemed concerned but he didn't follow me. I closed the door behind me as I wiped away my tears. Did he forget what we had planned? Does he even like me? Am I just another girl that he's going screw over and toss aside? I felt angry at him and Peach. Who gave her the right to steal him away from me? I clenched my fists and punched the wall, creating a hole. Damn them both! I'll show them that they can't do this to me!

"Sheik! Can you believe it? I won!" I turned to see Zelda followed by Samus. Zelda's blue eyes were bright and filled with delight and she wore a wide grin. The smile faded when she saw my eyes and the obvious hole in the wall. "We need to talk."

"Wait a minute. You're telling me you saw Ike and Peach making out in the hallway?" Samus said, anger flaring in her eyes. I nodded.

"But, that doesn't make any sense. She knows you and Ike have a thing," Zelda stated. All three of us sat on the floor as I explained to both of them everything that had happened from me leaving the stands to punching a hole in the wall.

"It doesn't have to make sense! She's obviously trying to sabotage their relationship. So let's go beat her up!" Samus fumed, attempting to stand up.

"Samus! We can't do that! We have to act rationally. We can solve this with words, not fists," Zelda said, grabbing her arm and pulling her back down.

Samus rolled her eyes and muttered "Stupid, goddess of wisdom."

Zelda glared at her but said nothing.

"Listen, instead of fighting, why don't you guys help me get revenge?" I asked. I had a brilliant plan, but I would need help carrying it out.

"Sheik, that would only make things worse!" Zelda stated.

"But I thought it was an eye for an eye?" I said.

Zelda's nostrils flared and her eyes narrowed. She didn't like her own words being used against her. "If you want to go through with revenge, fine. But everything doesn't seem to make sense. Think about what you are doing. It could ruin everything," Zelda explained. I thought about what she said but I wanted to go through with my plan anyway.

"Alright, spill the dets. What are you planning?" Samus asked eagerly.

Zelda shook her head and went to go sit by the window.

"Okay, but I think we're going to need Marth."

"But why me? Why couldn't you have asked Link or Snake?" Marth asked. Samus and I explained everything to him and what he had to do.

"I refuse to have Link involved in this ridiculous plan!" Zelda said, still sitting by the window.

"But Ike's my best friend. I don't want to hurt him," Marth murmured.

"It's not going to hurt him. If I'm fine with it, then he should be," Samus reassured him.

"Alright, fine. Ike's in the training room. Should we go now?" Marth asked. They both turned to me.

"Yes. You guys go ahead of me. That way, it doesn't look planned," I stated. They nodded and left for the training room.

"You know this is going to backfire on you?" Zelda said, not looking away from the window.

"No, it won't. My plans never backfire. I'll be fine," I said.

"Suit yourself. I already can see many flaws in your plan," she said, shrugging.

I left the room and headed for the training room. I hope she's not right. Reaching the training room, the plan was already unfolding.

"I can't believe this! You're dumping me? I thought you loved me!" I heard Samus cry. She ran right by me, fake tears streaming down her face. She nodded at me to let me know it was my turn.

I walked up to Marth, glaring at him. "What the hell happened?" I growled.

Marth started whispering "It's working. We have his attention and everyone thinks we broke up." I gave him a slight nod but we still had to continue. "It's nothing you should worry about. Besides, shouldn't you ask Samus instead of me?" Marth said.

"You're still my friend and there are always two sides to every story," I said.

"I think that's the problem, Sheik. We're more than friends," Marth said, pulling me closer to him by the waist. I really hope Samus doesn't mind this. Marth kissed me and I wrapped my arms around his neck. We both agreed on five seconds and no more. His finger taped my shoulder with each passing second. 1…2…3…

Marth was forcefully torn away from me and shoved at the wall. We both froze at Ike who had Marth pushed against the wall.

"What the fuck are you doing?" he snarled at Marth. Uh-oh. Neither of us planned Ike to cut in.

"Let go of him!" I tried pulling Ike away from Marth but he was too strong. Anger and betrayal were coursing through his body and it fueled his strength.

"And you! I thought we had a date? Why were you kissing him?" he asked, releasing Marth, who wasted no time leaving us.

"It was just a kiss," I said, trying to seem innocent. If he can kiss someone else, then why can't I do the same?

"Just a kiss? A kiss means a lot more then you think it does. I don't know if things are done differently where you come from, but that's not how things are done around here," Ike said.

"I think I know how it goes. I've been here longer than you have," I said, glaring at him.

"Then you should've known better." Ike folded his arms across his chest.

"Don't scold me like a child," I said between my teeth.

"If you are going to act like one, then I'll treat you like one."

I tackled him, punching him in the cheek once we hit the floor. "You're the one who doesn't know what a kiss means!"

He retaliated and flipped me over and tried twisting my arm behind me. "I think I do! What you and Marth did was called a kiss!" he said, struggling to try and keep me in place. I twisted out of his grip and flipped him on to his back. This time, I pinned him down using my body and held his hands down.

"Think what you want. I don't know how things are done where you come from," I sneered, unsheathing my knife "but you were the one I saw kissing someone else!"

"What!?" Ike exclaimed.

I pulled the knife back, blinded by rage and went to stab him. A gloved hand caught mine, snatching the knife away. Distracted, sleeker arms wrapped in blue snaked around my body and dragged me off Ike.

"Let go!" I struggled, trying to break free from Samus's strong grip.

"Not until you calm down," Samus answered.

"No, let her go," Zelda said. Marth helped up Ike, who gave him a nasty stare. She handed me my knife and I returned it to its place. "Well?" Zelda asked.

"What?" I muttered.

"Aren't you going to explain as to why you almost killed Ike?" she asked

"I wasn't going to kill him," I mumbled.

"Looked like you tried to me," Samus said, more to herself.

"You know, this is your fault," Ike said, glaring at Marth.

"Me? I didn't do anything!" Marth defended.

"No Ike. You have it wrong. Sheik, explain it to him," Zelda ordered.

I sighed. "I saw you kissing Peach so I planned to get you back by kissing Marth. It was fake. The whole thing was planned," I explained.

"Wait, you saw Peach kiss me?" Ike asked.

"Yes. I was going to meet Zelda when she finished the match, but then I saw you two in the hallway making out," I stated.

"We weren't making out! She just randomly started kissing me. I tried to push her back but she wouldn't let go and I didn't want to hurt her. She never explained why she had to kiss me even though I asked," Ike explained.

"So, I should be trying to kill Peach instead," I whispered.

"See? I told you we should've went and beat her up," Samus said.

"No, we are not killing or beating up anyone. Peach is still our friend so we have to go and talk to her," Zelda stated.

Marth and Ike had stayed in the training room while Zelda, Samus and I went to find Peach. We found her in the kitchen with Kirby.

"Peach, can we talk?" Zelda asked.

"Sure, what's up?"

"Well, we're kind of in a problem. You see, Sheik saw you and Ike kissing and got upset. Can you explain to us what happened and why you kissed Ike?" Zelda asked.

"Oh I was dared to kiss him. I didn't mean to start anything," the blonde princess frowned. Zelda looked at me, sending a silent see?

"Who dared you?" I asked.

"Ganondorf."

"Are you fucking kidding me? Who takes a dare from him?" I fumed.

"It was either that or do his laundry for a month," Peach mumbled.

"Thank you, Peach," Zelda said. She turned, leaving the kitchen. I followed her out.

"See? If only you would've waited and talked things out before you drew conclusions, you wouldn't have nearly killed Ike and ruined everything," Zelda stated.

"Yeah, I get it," I mumbled.

"Now you know the importance of solving this with words. If you could say it in words, there would be no need for your fists."

"Zelda, your wisdom is showing," Samus coughed as she walked by us.

Zelda gave her a small smile. "Shut up."

I sighed as I leaned against the wall. "Now what? I did just ruin everything."

"Well, you could always go, I don't know, apologize?" Samus suggested.

"That would be the best thing to do," Zelda agreed.

I nodded and headed back to the training room. I found Ike punching a dummy.

"Ike, can I talk to you?" I asked.

"It depends. Are you going to kill me this time?" he asked, the sarcasm bleeding through his words.

I sighed. "I came to say I'm sorry. I didn't mean to attack you or kiss Marth. I was just mad and upset that you would kiss someone else and forget about our date."

"Hey, it's okay. Besides, how could I ever forget? I've been looking forward to it all day," he said, grinning.

"Wait, we're still going to have it? Even though I tried to kill you?"

"Well, had you killed me, I would say no because I'd be dead. But since you didn't kill me, yes, we still are," Ike laughed.

I grinned. "Would there be any harm in starting earlier then planned?"

"Of course not," he said, taking my hand.

The lake was a beautiful place to walk by. It was gorgeous the way it shimmered in the afternoon could take your breath away. What made it more beautiful was seeing it reflect in the eyes of someone who loved you.

Ike sat down and I took a seat next to him.

"The lake is very beautiful at this time of day," he said, staring off. I looked towards the lake, the afternoon sun dancing across the ripples.

"Yes, it is. That's why I love sitting out here," I murmured.

"Well, you shouldn't sit out here alone," Ike said, smiling at me.

I brought my knees up to my chest and wrapped my arms around them. "It's not like anyone else would enjoy sitting here for hours. They'd get bored," I explained.

"I'll join you. Only if you invite me," he winked.

I rested my head against his shoulder. "You can come here whenever you want."

"I need a hand-written invitation."

I laughed. "I'll write you one and mail it to your room. One-day shipping," I joked.

He laughed as well, the sound making my heart soar with delight. "Good, I'll be waiting for it."

I rolled my eyes and playfully pushed him.

"Hey!" he said, playfully pushing me back. Before we knew it we were wrestling each other. Eventually, I managed to pin him down.

"Okay! You win," he laughed. I joined in, releasing him and rolling onto the grass next to him. Eventually, we lay in silence.

"Hey, Sheik?"

"Hm?"

"I think we're going to be an awesome couple," Ike said, smiling.


Soo..? What did you guys think? Good? Bad? Could've been done better? Well, don't answer these questions mentally, leave a review. :D

Thanks for reading. Next theme: Drunk.

Ahahaha, I can't wait! :D
