I hope you enjoy!

Lucas woke up to the annoying sound of the doorbell. Groaning as he rolled out of bed, he glanced at the time. It was 5:00 AM. Hoping that someone was going downstairs to open the door, he opened the bedroom door and glanced into the hallway. It was as empty as a ghost town. Somehow, he wasn't surprised that most of the Smashers slept like rocks. Sighing, Lucas trekked downstairs and opened the door.

"Hiya, nice to meet you!" Greeted an angel way too happily for five in the morning. "I'm Pit and-" the angel stopped, finally getting a good look at Lucas. "Are you wearing pyjamas? Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to wake anyone up!" Lucas just flat out stared at him before realizing he was supposed to be welcoming him.

"It's okay, I'm Lucas," he introduced himself. "Nice to meet you too. Come inside," invited Lucas tiredly. Pit followed him inside curiously.

"Wow it's so-" Pit cut off his sentence at the glare Lucas gave him. "Right, everyone's sleeping." He whispered to himself. They creeped through the mansion, going upstairs and into the music room.

"I don't know where your room is, so you're going to have to stay here until everyone else wakes up," declared Lucas.

"Alright, I've always wanted a stereo!" Exclaimed Pit, grabbing a stereo off the shelf. Pit glanced at the CDs before taking the one that said 'Kid Icarus' on it. Inserting it into the stereo, Pit pressed play. Lucas quickly dove and hit stop before the song could begin playing.

"Shhhhh," he murmured. Pit, getting the message, grabbed some headphones and attached them to the stereo. He then started jamming out to the music. "This reminds me of home!" He whispered excitedly.

Lucas looked around the room, spotting the vase with sunflowers he had seen before. It was on a shelf, surrounded by tons of other things. He could see a wooden ocarina labelled as a 'Fairy Ocarina', a sword labelled 'Leif's Blade', and an old doll with no label. Curious to see what else was on the shelf, Lucas leaned forward, slightly pushing aside the doll to get a closer look. As he read the label of the next item, a 'Tetris Block', he knocked the doll off the shelf. He glanced sideways only to see the doll falling off the shelf and breaking on the floor.

Lucas stared at the doll. The reason it had broken was because it was made of porcelain. Picking up the broken pieces, he noticed something strange. There was a music box inside the doll!

Pit had moved to where the doll fell, no longer listening to music. "Is that a music box?" He asked. Before Lucas could ask what he was doing, Pit grabbed the music box and handed it to him. "That's really weird don't you think?"

Lucas inspected the music box. It was old, probably older than the broken doll. He found a crank on the side of the music box and began to wind it. A five note melody started playing and ended abruptly. It sounded quite familiar to Lucas, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it before. He snapped his fingers, remembering that he had heard it in that weird dream he had last night.

"Do you know this song?" Questioned Pit, having seemingly understood why Lucas had snapped his fingers.

"I recognize it, but I don't know its name." Responded Lucas. It was true, he didn't know its name.

Pit was about to say something when someone burst into the room. Catching a glimpse of fiery red hair, Lucas identified it as Roy.

"Oh, I didn't think there would be someone inside at six in the morning," remarked Roy, looking at Lucas. Turning to Pit, he smiled. "I don't suppose we've met, I'm Roy."

"I'm Pit, nice to meet ya!" Sang the angel, waving at Roy.

"Well," continued Roy. "I'm just here to listen to music, so you can keep doing what you were-" He cut off mid-sentence, noticing the doll on the floor. "Did you guys break that?" Inquired Roy. Lucas nodded sadly in response.

"Look at what Lucas found in it though!" Exclaimed Pit. "Show him Lucas!" Reluctantly, Lucas handed the music box to Roy. Roy turned it over in his hands, surprised at what Lucas had found. He found the crank and wound it, listening to the short melody that came out.

"I think I've heard this before," muttered Roy. "It's not from Fire Emblem, I think." Lucas nodded. That was the answer he had expected from Roy. "Although I'm not sure, you might have to ask Marth. I'm pretty sure he would know if Leif knows it or something."

After that, the three settled down, each with their own respective stereos and music. Lucas was so into the music that he didn't notice when someone knocked on the door.

"Yes?" Called Roy.

"Dancing Deku King," grumbled the voice on the other side.

"Come in," singsonged Roy.

The person opened the door and stepped in. Lucas quickly recognized him as Link, one of the many people he had met yesterday.

"It's time for breakfast."

Time passed by quickly, or so Lucas discovered. Breakfast was over in a flash and before he knew it, he had already shown Pit his room. He was pretty sure Pit thought he was a veteran from Melee though. Most likely because he had sat with the other veterans, leaving Pit on the far end of the table. He felt that was a little bit mean, but Ness had dragged him to his side, hearing no protest of his.

Before he knew it, it was lunch. Sitting with the veterans from Melee, next to the Ice Climbers, Lucas ate his lunch in silence. All of a sudden, he heard the doorbell ring. He was about to get up when he saw Marth get up from the table and go to answer the door. Lucas, excusing himself, got up and followed Marth.

Being quiet so that he wouldn't be heard, Lucas followed Marth up the stairs. He was surprised that Marth didn't go straight upstairs. Marth knocked loudly on the Fire Emblem door.

"He's here Roy!" Exclaimed Marth, his worry and sadness evident in his voice. "Your replacement is here!" Marth then turned, not noticing Lucas, and ran down the stairs to go open the door.

Lucas knocked on the door. To his surprise, Roy actually opened it. To Roy's surprise, Lucas ran into his arms.

"I'm sorry you have to leave because of newbies like me. I won't forget you, I swear." Lucas hugged Roy tighter. Roy stood, shocked at Lucas' hug and sudden confession. He quickly recovered, patting Lucas on the back and ruffling his hair.

"Don't worry about me kiddo, I'll be just fine." Lucas stared at Roy, sending him a glare. "I know, you're only 3 years younger, spare me the lecture. Anyways, I gotta finish packing my bags and you have to finish your lunch." Roy gave him a pat on the back before lightly pushing Lucas in the direction of the stairs. Lucas took a short glance back at Roy, waving goodbye to the fifteen year old boy he had known for only a short time.

All the newbies had begun to arrive, and Lucas felt more of a stranger than before. He sat with the Melee fighters, occasionally glancing at the slowly growing newbie table during dinner. He didn't have much of an appetite and excused himself early.

He went to his and Ness' room. Soon after, Ness came back from dinner to tell him that the Brawl list was going to be posted tomorrow. Lucas shrugged it off. He wasn't really worried about his first Brawl. He was a little nervous about it, but he didn't feel stressed about it. Shrugging it off, he quickly got changed and went to bed.

-.-

La la la la la...

It was the melody he had heard this morning, realized Lucas. It seemed that he had been right. The telepathic singer was the one who had sung it.

La la la la laaa...

That was the second melody he had heard yesterday.

La la la la la la...

A third melody...

La la la la...

Lucas found himself dropping off to sleep during the fourth melody. It seemed like... The voice... It was someone... Familiar...
