Ok this chapter is kind of bad in my opinion :/ just letting you know.
Chapter Five: The Decision
"That was close." Ike says.
"Thank you for reminding me, or else we would've been trapped there." Zelda brushes her dress off. Ike watches her. "What is it?" she turns to him.
"Oh nothing… I just didn't know how Peach felt."
Zelda looks up at him.
"If you knew, you would've done your best to make her happy, wouldn't you have?"
"I suppose so…" Ike looks up to the sky. "Where are we?"
Zelda looks around as well.
"The Pokemon stadium…" she knits her eyebrows. Suddenly they hear footsteps.
"Looks like we've found you." A voice sounds behind them.
Zelda turns and is taken by surprise.
"Marth?" she says.
Marth smiles at her and bows.
"Marth what are you doing here?!" Ike says.
"New spreads fast. Peach and Zero Samus should be looking for you right now." He looks to Zelda.
"I am not afraid to fight but the reason Zero Samus gave was unreasonable. I fight because I want to survive. My pride always remains." Zelda says.
"Oh please, just fight peach. I know you'll win. Remember last December?" Marth leans closer to her. She looks into his eyes.
"There's no point…" Zelda murmurs.
Marth rolls his eyes and grabs Zelda's shoulders.
"Fighting her would just be playing for you!" he exclaims.
Ike walks over.
"Marth is right. You fight well." He smiles.
"I'm not afraid and I do agree with you…which is why I can't fight her. I would just be wasting my energy. I don't fight for fun." Zelda says.
Ike and Marth exchange looks.
"I haven't thought of it that way." Ike leans on a column.
"Well I'll let you figure it out." Marth says. He jumps up and out of the stadium through the open ceiling.
Zelda sighs.
"He always just pops in to cause trouble and leaves suddenly."
Ike hesitantly puts his hand on her shoulder.
"You don't have to fight her if you don't want to." He says.
She smiles up at him.
"Thank you, Ike. But how will we settle this?"
Ike thinks for a moment.
"I could talk to Peach and try to calm her down." He suggests.
"She trusts you." Zelda replies.
Ike nods.
"Then let's go now." He takes her hand automatically. Just as she's about to teleport, a blue arrow flies in between them.
"You're not going anywhere." Samus crosses her arms. She stands at the front of the crowd next to Pit and Peach.
"Pit?" Ike stares in shock. "Why…"
"You were always more popular, the stronger one, the braver one." He readies another arrow.
"It's alright Pit, you'll get your turn." Samus lowers his bow. "Peach?" she looks to Peach.
"I—I can't." she hangs her head.
"I promised you I would do anything that I think could help." Samus says as she reaches for her weapon. "I hope you'll forgive me for this." She starts running towards Zelda and Ike.
