Marth was in a different room now. Instead of sitting in his castle-like bedroom, he was sitting on a leather reclining desk chair in a manga café cubicle. Behind him was a flat screen computer with Facebook on it, clogged with annoying statuses from Toon Link on the timeline. There was a simple white cot with a simple pillow and blanket. Underneath, was a blue backpack stuffed with his belongings. Instant food lined the tops and sides of the microwave. People were chattering like the popular girls at school, disrupting the peace. Marth didn't immediately looked at the camera, but he was reading a few manga volumes about the Legend of Zelda.
"Uh…Marth, we're airing right now. No one wants to see you read a book for the whole episode." notified a voice. It must have belonged to a cameraman.
Marth didn't listen, until one of the crew had to tap him on the shoulder. He looked up at the camera to say his words.
"Hello everyone. This is the series finale of Fate of the Melee Smashers and we will be observing the fates of Link, Zelda, and Ganondorf from Ocarina of Time." Marth said.
The usual theme song for the show played before cutting back to Marth sitting on a chair.
"You may be wondering, "Marth, why aren't you covering Dr. Mario?", but everyone knows that he treats patients at Smash Mansion. He now gets paid by Master Hand and the government every month."
Meanwhile:
Because Smash Mansion was being exterminated for pests, Ness, Lucas, Toon Link, Diddy Kong, Red, Nana and Popo chipped in money to rent a suite in a luxury hotel. Everyone except for Nana (who was playing with her dolls in the bedroom) sat on the couch and the floor of the suite living room to watch the finale of Fate of the Melee Rejects.
"First, we will be observing Link." Marth announced. "We recently got a tweet from Plasmatroopa regarding if Young Link and Link are the same people."
Marth pulled out his cell phone and read the tweet out loud. A screenshot of Plasmatroopa's tweet appeared on the screen.
"There's not much point in doing the OoT incarnation of Link, since Young Link is his past self and he's dead...yeah." read Marth. "The truth is, Young Link and Link are separate beings. In Ocarina of Time, two people were used to play the role of Link. Young Link is played by a child, while the Teenage Link is played by either a teenager or a young adult. The same goes for Zelda, Ruto, and Malon. Anyway, back to Link."
Marth pulled out Link's Melee headshot from a folder in his bag. The background was a lovely blue, and Link was posing with his Master Sword and Hylian Shield. His leather Kokiri boots were partially covering his silver name tag and the Triforce insignia.
"The Ocarina of Time Link still lives in Smash Mansion. He sports a new look, but he's still the Hero of Time that we all know. He didn't want to join Brawl, instead wanting to use his winnings start a wilderness supply store that sold goods for camping, adventures and survival. This conflicted with Master Hand's wishes, because he was the reason why most girls come to the tournaments. Because of that, Master Hand used Mewtwo to brainwash him into reprising his role in Super Smash Bros Brawl. I actually snuck into the security a few years ago, and recorded it on a DVD. Since I can't access to Smash Mansion, I'm going to play it on this nearby computer."
Link entered the room to see Master Hand sitting nearby. On his fingers rested a pair of reading glasses. The Hero of Time sat in a nearby chair to see what Master Hand has to say.
"Link! Congratulations on another finished season! You may not be popular as Fox, but the Fanfiction charts are going up thanks to you. This means more marketing, which leads to more games! Let's talk about Brawl!" Master Hand said in a manager voice.
"Umm…ok." Link said awkwardly.
"Because the Twilight Princess Link declined to be in Super Smash Bros, you'll reprise your role as Link!" Master Hand announced.
"Does that mean I get to wear the same clothes again?" asked Link.
"Actually no. You'll get to wear his clothes!"said Master Hand.
"Can I see the contract?" Link requested.
A contract appeared in Link's gloved hands. The Hero of Time started reading the contract, before replying.
"Thanks for the offer Master Hand, but I've rather retire and start my own business." replied Link.
Mewtwo teleported beside Master Hand's desk, its evil eyes glowing. The white hand pointed at Link and Mewtwo's eyes glowed brighter.
"Bvvvvvvh." went Mewtwo's eyes.
Brainwashed, Link signed the contract and handed it to Master Hand.
"Thank you Link, here's a coupon for a hairdresser I recommend. Go cut your hair like the Twilight Princess Link." instructed Master Hand.
Link left the room as the DVD stopped.
"We'll talk about Zelda and Ganondorf after a word from my sponsors."
In the hotel:
The kids were expecting another annoying commercial from that Toad Mays guy.
"I hate infomercials." Ness said.
"That Toad guy is pissing me off." Lucas added in.
"Team Galactic. We come in peace." said the feminine voice. It was a futuristic commercial looking for new recruits. 30 seconds later, the commercial ended.
"Weird." said Toon Link.
Back in the manga cafe:
"Last time, we observed Link's fate. The next person to be observed is Princess Zelda, one of the Hylian Royal Family rulers and an ex-Smasher."
Marth picked up a picture of Zelda. The young princess was posing in vain for the camera. Part of her dress covered the silver letters making up her name. A princess pink background complemented Zelda's dress.
"Sigh. After she was replaced with her Twilight Princess counterpart, she went back to Hyrule to claim her place as queen. She married some prince and had a son.
Marth typed some words in a search engine and showed a picture of the current Hylian Royal Family on the screen. In the middle were a young blond prince and a beautiful queen. On their lap was a young boy.
"Sadly, her husband casted a sleeping spell on Zelda and became the new ruler of Hyrule. He had an attraction for shiny things, and the palace was littered with gems and jewelry. The king raised the taxes, and most of the citizens can't afford enough food to keep themselves alive."
Marth showed the audience some pictures of the palace, which was clogged with gems and jewelry.
"And finally, Ganondorf."
The prince took out another headshot of the Gerudo king. He proudly displayed his giant sword while standing in front of a light purple background. His giant boots covered half of his name, but not his Triforce insignia.
"Just like Zelda, Ganondorf returned back to Hyrule. A few days later, he went into the Temple of Time, but he never came out. I got some tweets regarding this, and I'll show them on the screen.
"From TheGerudoTribe. #MeleeRejects After Ganondorf left, we found some documents about what he was about to do. It seems that they attached a picture too."
Marth clicks the link and saw some of Ganondorf's documents that were written in a leather bound book.
"To do list:
Kidnap Zelda and take the Triforce too
Go into the Scared Realm
Go shoe shopping
Get new tiles for bathroom"
"I'm an excellent hacker and secretly hacked into the Temple of Time's recently installed security cameras. Let's see what they filmed.
Ganondorf walked into the Temple of Time and noticed the 3 Spiritual Stones spinning on a platform.
"Bwahaha!" Ganondorf released an evil laugh as he walked into the opened chamber. Marth changed the view to the Master Sword room. The doors to the Sacred Realm were opened and Ganondorf walked right in. At the same time he entered, Toon Link returned back to the past, trapping him inside.
"That was a fun opportunity to be like the Hero of Time." the bug eyed hero said before running out.
"And that ends the series of Fate of the Melee Rejects. I'd like to thank everyone for their loyalty to this show. I may return back next year to make a new show called 'Fate of the Brawl Rejects', which documents the rejected Brawl Smashers. Hope I don't get a cease and desist from Master Hand regarding the security camera footage. Goodbye viewers and I hope to make a new series in March!"
Marth waves at the camera and the screen faded to black. A message appeared on the screen in white font, before showing the credits. It said "If you want more Fate of the Melee Rejects stuff, you'll have to make them yourself."
I'm really lazy when writing this. I just want this finished as quick as possible.
A manga cafe is where people can pay a fixed fee per hour to read manga.
The chapter is shorter because there's no infomercial.
I used # instead due to Fanfiction rules on spam.
