As I walked down the stairs, I looked at around at the other contenders for this show, and who was the best or worst. Lucas and Diddy Kong seemed to be the weakest links here, but who knows who could be the best or who could be the worst.
Link saw a long dining room table, with 16 chairs set up around it. There was one chair on the short ends of the table, and seven chairs were set up on each side of the long sides of the table. All of them were labeled with a gold plaque that had their name on it.
"Welcome to the Dinner Table…" Meowzika said, looking at the 16 contestants. "Now, to let you in on a secret, you're not only going to eat dinner here. You're also going to talk about the day and use a Tabletop Challenge. To do a Tabletop Challenge, you're team must have won the challenge that day, and the team must agree on the two people to give the Tabletop Challenge to. Then, someone must be nominated to do the Tabletop Challenge. The Tabletop Challenge will be given in the form of a head-on-head battle. If the team who issued the challenge wins, the person nominated for elimination will be put up for it. If the team who issued the challenge loses, then the nominees are safe."
"Oh yeah, and also, up above us is a wall that will have the names of the contestants that have left will be nailed up to that wall." Meowzika said, pointing up to a blank wall with the title "YOU SUCK!" above it. "Enjoy your dinner…"
The floor opened up from beneath him and he vanished. Then, as if by magic, the table pops up with food. There were French fries, onion rings, buckets of cold slaw, collared greens, macaroni & cheese, Buffalo wings, and, course, a large pile of cheeseburgers in the center of the table, served on a silver platter.
I sat down in his assigned seat next to Peach and…sadly…Mr. Game & Watch. I tried to ignore him, but Mr. Game & Watch put a sticky note on my lap that read: Yo lok at dem. Dey soooooo byg, I cn hs sqeze?
I just gave him a dirty look and really wanted to switch seats with him. Or, he could be eliminated tomorrow. That was his plan.
Samus
I grabbed a few pieces of food and scanned the table. Since I was the team captain, I was conveniently placed at the end of the table. Of course, Ike was on the other end, being the douchiest of douches.
I tried to ignore him, and examine the choices for teammates I had. Let's see…I need to get Pit, Link, and Zelda…Five more selections…Lucario would be a good teammate, I mean, he had a good arm in the first challenge. They needed a good arm on the team…Let's see, who else…?
"Hey Samus!" Ike yelled from across the room. "Thanks for the discount! I must say your 'product' was worth it!"
I looked up and stared at Ike absentmindedly. Rage churned through my veins like a nun churns butter. Don't start anything…it's the first day…
Ike laughed and gave a knuckle bump to Snake and Marth. Marth didn't seem to enjoy it, though. He had an uncomfortable look on his face, almost looking like he hated what his brother had said to his roommate. "I must say, though, I don't think it was good enough!"
And after that, the room went silent. But the silence wasn't long, but it wasn't short, either; it was that perfect silence of which it was short but you could still process that the silence was there. The calm before the storm. And I was about to erupt. "Okay, Ike…you wanna play that game? Fine…your dick is about the size of a dime. You have the manliness of Peach, and you're breath smells like Diddy Kong took a shit in your mouth. Now if you excuse me, I am going to bed…"
And with that, I put my napkin down, pushed my chair in, and walked up to my room, everyone engrossed in what just happened. Ike stared off into the distance, and the whole room erupted into conversation about what had just happened. I was pleased at with I just spawned.
That night, while Marth was brushing his teeth, ready to go to bed, I looked at Marth, and noticed he was staring at me through the reflection of the mirror. What was he thinking about? Oh my God, is he a pervert and staring at my chest? I quickly covered up my breast with a blanket on the floor, but noticed he was staring at me. That's not it…I thought to myself. As Marth spat into the sink, he walked out and sat on the bed. Bringing a copy of The Lord of the Flies. He put some reading glasses on, and began reading from the middle of the book.
"There's something I don't get about you." I said to him. Marth didn't even bother to stop reading the book, but he asked, "What is it?"
I looked over to him and said, "Well, you're brother is all douchey to everyone, but, yet, you're all nice to people and shy about everything else. What gives?" Marth folded the corner of his book and took of his glasses. "Well, it's all about friend selection. While Ike decided to hang out with a bunch of preppies, I decided to hang out the nerds I call my friends. And when you are a nerd, you kind of learn how not be so douchey…you know?"
I looked over to him and smiled, "Okay, I get it now…" Before Marth got back to his book, he stared over at Samus and said, "By the way…did you and Ike have sex?"
This was the one moment in my life I tried to hold back a slap. Marth seemed so helpless, and the back of my hand wouldn't help his situation anyways. So I blatantly said no. Marth then began to go back to his reading, and I looked at this man, curious of what he had in store.
Link
"Okay…so explain this to me again, word for word…" I asked him, wanting the story of his crush for Samus completely.
"Well…" Pit began, "It was a long time ago, way back when. I was in a tournament and I had to face Bowser. I was scared toothless, but I tried hard anyway. It wasn't until I got badly scorched that I was out. When I was rushed out of there, Samus was there trying to help me along the way. When I woke up, she was there, gave me a kiss, and I've had a crush on her since."
I looked at Pit and smiled. "Listen, I'll do anything to let you have her. Good luck, okay?" Pit smiled and said, "Good luck with Zelda, okay?"
I smiled to him, and fell asleep. That night, I dreamt about me and Zelda together watching a sunset, and right when I was going to kiss her, Pit woke me up. I yelled as Pit said, "Get up, we're picking teams today!"
