I'm baaaaaaack! How long has it been, like two weeks? Jeez…school is not nice to me! First a massive project, then a short story, and now vector diagrams...BAH! But I have a break now, and thus, I am back!
Okay, okay, okay, I know this was supposed to be TheNinjaAlchemist95's request; buuut for it to work out right, something else needs to happen first. And just as I'm trying to come up with something, kojo fires mine () sends me a request and saves the day! So yeah. Enjoy!

"Will someone please explain why I had to be woken up at this ungodly hour?"
It was seven in the morning, and eleven brawlers, all still in their pajamas, had squished themselves into Link's room, forgetting that he was still in there sleeping. The Hylian was now quite confused, and thoroughly annoyed.
"We want you to play with us!" Lucas exclaimed simply from the foot of the bed. Ness was to the right of the little psychic, and looked just as excited.
Link sat up as best he could without knocking off the three people who were sitting on the edge of his bed. "Okay, but why do you want me to play with you now?" he asked. "It's way too early still. We don't even have scheduled brawls at this time!"
Zelda, one of the ones sitting on the bed, shrugged. "We might as well. It won't do any harm."
"It's harming my sleep schedule," Link muttered under his breath. Then, figuring resistance was futile, he swung out of bed and marched out the door. He got halfway down the hall before he realized no one was following him. He spun on his heel and marched back to his room, where everyone was staring blankly out the door.
"Whaaaat?" he said, frustrated. "First you want to play with me at seven in the freaking morning, and now you don't even follow when I leave to go and do just that! I have got to be dreaming…" he banged his head against the door.
Marth patted the sad boy's back awkwardly. "We didn't follow because you went without warning, and then went the wrong way. The rec room is in the other direction."
Link moaned loudly and continued smacking the door with his head. Fearing for his friend's sanity, Marth gently took him by the shoulders and led him out of the room. The rest followed.
A few hallways and half a spiral staircase later, Link spoke again. "Will you guys explain to me now what exactly you wish to do?"
Lucas was the one to pipe up again. "A running game! A running game!" he cried, waving his little arms over his head. He looked so adorable that Link just couldn't bear to turn him down by saying he didn't want to play. They continued down the rest of the staircase and into the rec room.
The rec room was immense. It was at least twenty meters long and wide, and ten meters high. Some of the walls bore scars from previous adventures that had occurred there, including a few scorch marks, splattered paint, and a deep groove three inches deep and ten inches long. They had never been repaired for many reasons, but mostly because the janitors just couldn't be bothered.
Lucas and Ness were the first two to run into the room, yelling gleefully. Zelda, Samus, and Sheik followed. Ike, Marth and Link were next, and Pit ducked under Ike's arm to squeeze between him and the door. Captain Falcon, Mario, and Luigi were the last ones to come in. They all gathered in a circle in the center, looking very mismatched in their pajamas.
"So," Ike was the first to speak from beside Sheik, "what exactly are we going to be doing in here?"
"Running around!" squealed Ness and Lucas together, chasing each other in a little circle.
Many people sighed. "We can't just do that!" Sheik complained. "That's boring. Can we at least make a game out of it?"
"Tag!" Ness shrieked. Little children are always incredibly loud during the incredibly early hours. He reached out quickly and tagged Lucas. "You're it!"
That's how the game began. Everyone quickly scattered around the room as Lucas began to wheel around and tag whoever he could. Unluckily for Ike, he happened to be the slowest, and unluckily for Sheik, she happened to be right next to him. Once Sheik had determined that the rule of "no tag-backs" was in play, she quickly located a target and went after it. This target happened to be Captain Falcon. When he was tagged, everything seemed to freeze as he raised his fist dramatically into the air.
"I'M IIIIIIIIIITTTTTT!" he yelled, smiling maniacally.
All heck broke loose. While Captain Falcon ran around the room at top speed, right arm out to falcon punch anyone who got in his way, everyone did their best to stay as far away from him as possible. At one point, Link got himself wedged in the corner and only narrowly avoided getting his head taken off. Unfortunately, it resulted in a new dent being added to the already beaten walls.
After five minutes of crazy falcon dodging, people started to get tired. Captain Falcon was chasing Mario, but the exhausted Italian tripped over his overlong pajama pants. He caught the full force of the falcon punch and flew straight into the wall, leaving a large, gaping hole.
It took everyone a moment to realize what had happened, and Captain Falcon even longer, but when they did, panic set in. Samus was the first to get over to the hole and climb through it. With the help of Zelda, they quickly located Mario. Luckily, the only thing broken was the wall. Once the girls were absolutely sure that Mario was fine, they went over to the others, who were trying desperately to find a way to hide this massive hole in the wall.
Link was being terribly useless. He was panicking, pacing back and forth and running his hands over and over through his increasingly messy hair. Ike looked calm and collected, as usual, but only those who knew him incredibly well could tell that on the inside, he was a mess. Luigi was beside himself with worry for his brother, and was also being of no use. Pit was trying to stack up the rubble and make it look like there was still a wall there, and Ness and Lucas were helping. Marth seemed to be the only one whose brain was working rationally enough to come up with a plan.
"Alright everyone, I have a plan!" Marth said triumphantly. When every desperate eye was on him, he continued: "We leave and pretend like this never, ever happened."
Most of them were all for this. Ike was not.
"It's not honest," he protested. "We, or rather Captain Falcon, made this mess, so we need to take responsibility."
"To hell with being honest," Link's mood was worsening, and so was his rationality, "we need to get out of here before somebody comes here and sees us! Do you have any idea how much trouble we'll be in if Mr. Cameron sees this?"
"Yes. You are all in a lot of trouble."
The brawlers whirled around simultaneously to see where the voice had come from. Mr. Cameron was standing at the bottom of the staircase, red in the face with anger. The brawlers could only watch sheepishly as he stalked stiffly over to the hole in the wall, made an angry sort of moaning sound while gesturing wildly, then regained his composure.
"This," he began with a cough, "will not go unsaid. The president will have to be told about this, and the other incident too." The brawlers involved in that dodgeball game blushed and stared at their feet. "I feel sorry for you, as I will do nothing to diminish his wrath. Good day," and he turned around and went up the staircase.
It was a full five minutes before anyone felt comfortable enough to say something.
"I feel like an idiot."
"So do I," Marth agreed with Link.
"I guess we should just go back to our rooms and wait to find out how we're punished," Ike said without any optimism at all.
The agreement was silent. They walked single file up the staircase, back down the halls, and into their rooms, dreading what they would find when they reopened the doors.
OOOOOOHHH, somebody screwed up BIG TIME :/
Okay, so next chapter is TheNinjaAlchemist95's request for sure. I mean, nothing else could possibly happen after all that (oh yeah, still haven't told you what it is yet…and still not gonna ;) )
kojo fires mine (), I'm not sure if this is exactly what you had in mind, but I hope you like it anyway.
I think now is a good time to say THANK YOU! to my lovely reviewers. You guys are awesome pie! Please keep reviewing, and if you have a request, tell me! I wish to hear it! :D
