A/N: Well, I am bored as high as the sky goes, and it's been a very long time (sorry!) since I posted a chapter, so here's chapter two of this… thing. I don't own any of the Smash Bros., Nintendo does. Thanks again to Paradigm of Writing for the suggestion to write this thing. And, Luigi is God.
The Puppet
Chapter 2
As Pit skipped merrily back to Palutena and Dark Pit, Samus watched him along with Pikachu. Now, ever since the Subspace Emissary incident, Pikachu was one of those… things that made her feel comfortable. She felt as though she could easily talk to Pikachu about her problems without having the urge to leave, and she had something bothering on her mind. So when Samus saw Pikachu in the room, she went him to tell the Mouse Pokémon about her problem.
"Hey there, Pikachu." Said Samus as she walked over to Pikachu. Pikachu's ears perked up to the sound of his name and looked to see Samus walking towards him. Pikachu then ran up to Samus, knowing that she was a good friend of his. Samus proceeded to pick him up and he settled himself into her arms.
"Pika, pika!" Pikachu said.
"Oh, Pikachu, you always know what to say." Samus said to Pikachu. "You always seem to know how I feel, and right now, I feel bothered by something."
"Pika, pika?" Pikachu cried in a curious tone.
"Well, it's Pit," Samus began, "He's been acting weird lately. I heard him whisper… very disturbing things to himself, and that kind of bothered me, considering he's a happy person. Now that I mention it, Pit's been a bit overexcited these days. Did you notice that, Pikachu?"
Samus looked down to see Pikachu looking at Pit while he was talking to his two friends. Pit seemed to feel Pikachu's stare and looked at where Samus and Pikachu were. He then gave them a sadistic glare and smile, which made both the bounty hunter and mouse flinch. He went back to his usual happy face almost instantly, and took a hold of Palutena's and Dark Pit's hands as he brought them over to the two. Samus thought Pit was going to introduce them to her, so she readied herself for this.
"This was the person I was talking about, Palutena!" said Pit to the green-haired goddess. "This is Samus, and she's a nice lady!"
"Hello. It's nice to meet you." Said Samus as she shook Palutena's hand. "Pit's been talking about you nonstop. It gets a little irritating after a while."
Palutena chuckled at this. "Well, that's Pit for you. Getting overly excited about something gets him into a hyperactive mood. Don't worry, this is normal." She continued to stare deeply into Samus' blue eyes with her own green ones. Samus felt uncomfortable with her staring, so she turned to the black angel that looked exactly like Pit.
"So is this that clone Pit told me about earlier?" Samus asked as she pointed to the angel beside Palutena. The angel in question seemed to get angry when Samus called him a "clone" while Pit looked like as if he was laughing at that.
"Well, for your information, I am Dark Pit, the original and superior being of that angel I sadly am related to." Dark Pit said while gesturing over to Pit. Samus looked over to Pit, and found that he was now glaring at him with a murderous intention. "So there, you know me now. You'd better not forget it, you stupid bimbo." Dark Pit muttered. Unfortunately, it wasn't quiet enough, as Pit had now walked over to him and put his arm around the dark clone's neck; Samus noticed that it looked like a chokehold. Dark Pit gasped as Pit began to speak.
"Now Dark Pit, that's not something you say to people you just met," Pit began, "…So you'd better apologize before I end you early, which would be a real shame too if I were to take my fun away too soon… Oh yes…" Apparently, Dark Pit didn't notice the sudden change of tone in the voice Pit just spoke, but apologized to Samus anyway. Although she was pissed at him for calling her a bimbo, she couldn't let what Pit just said slip away. But she didn't want to ask about it, so she just said it was okay.
"Now see, Dark Pit? Wasn't that nice? Now, why don't you go converse with the other newcomers? I'll come back to you later." Said Pit. Dark Pit just sulked, and walked away from the crowd to "converse" with the other newcomers.
"Well, I'd better get going too." Said Palutena. "It was a pleasure to meet you, Samus. Thank you for taking care of Pit all this time for me." Palutena then bowed in front of Samus, which made her go red.
"Ah, no, there's no need to do that! It wasn't a problem, really." Samus quickly said. Palutena stood up and giggled at Samus, confusing her.
"Hee hee, I know that. I just wanted to tease you. You looked cute when you got all embarrassed." Palutena giggled. "But now this time, I'll go. So once again, it was a pleasure." She held out her hand, which Samus promptly shook. Samus noticed that her grip was tighter than last time, and tried to let go of it. The green-haired goddess let go eventually, to Samus' relief. "Goodbye, Samus~" Palutena said with a wink as she walked off. The blonde then sighed a sigh of content, as now she didn't have to talk to anyone anymore.
"Well, that was a good meeting!" Pit said. Samus whipped around to his direction, as she had forgotten that he didn't leave yet. "Oh yea, I have something to tell you. Can you come in closer?" Samus complied and leaned within earshot of only Pit. "…You'd better be lucky that I saved you from that creature Dark Pit. I knew you would've shot him instantly, which would caused a bad scene, now wouldn't it have…?" Samus went wide-eyed and looked at Pit with a look of extreme confusion. Pit just stood there, smiling at Samus with a creeper smile and stare. "…Oh yes… It would've. Now that little thing going on with you and Palutena, I cannot leave unattended. So I will leave with this: it was a total shock to me, that event. Now, I take my leave… Oh yes…" Pit turned around and moved his index finger once, all while walking away laughing to himself.
"Okay, that was weird." Samus thought to herself. "I don't think I can trust that goddess Palutena after the little… interactions she made with me. Also, there's definitely something wrong with Pit. Why didn't anyone notice his change in tone? Why did he say those things to me? What does he mean by he was "shocked"? Ugh, just so many unanswered questions." The bounty hunter held her chest tight due to this confusion. However, she forgot that Pikachu was still in her arms, resulting in the electric mouse giving her a sudden shock to her hands. She dropped him and held her hands in her arms to cool the sting. Realizing what he did, Pikachu cried apologetically and ran off. "No wait, Pikachu, come back! I know it was an accident!" Samus shouted. She continued to hold her shocked hands in her arms, thinking about how she needed to apologize to Pikachu. While that happened, in the distance,
"…Hehehe… I gave her a hint, but I guess even some can't comprehend simple hints. But whatever, I still got a good laugh out of that. Look's like this vessel was a good choice after all. Now isn't the time to praise myself though, as now I move onto my next victim… Oh yes…" Said Pit as he stopped staring at Samus ominously and looked onto Dark Pit standing in the lobby.
A/N: Woah, I came back to life. Hi hi, it's TurtlesMan again, and I am so sorry for the late update in the story. I was in a rut of what to type up, and I was very lazy too. Plus, school is almost over, so that's good, as now I can focus more on this thing maybe. So yep, be expecting more or something. R&R if you need to, and I'll see you in the next chapter! Luigi for God anyone?
