Note: If you don't play Super Smash Bros Brawl, you might not understand some of this and you'll have to imagine what some of the scenes are like. Sorry if I didn't put enough description because I expected only people who play the game to read this.
Chapter Seven: The Aftermath
"Are you ok, Peach?" Samus looks at Peach solemnly. Peach finishes wrapping Samus' leg and looks to Zelda and Ike.
"I know he won't like me. I guess I just want to see him happy." She smiles lightly. Samus touches her shoulder gently.
"You've changed and now you're so mature! I'm proud of you, Peach." She grins and tries to stand but is unsuccessful.
"You shouldn't stand yet! We have to get you a medic." Peach holds Samus' arm.
"Sigh…"
"Here I'll call one for you." Peach stands and runs out of the stadium.
"Oh she even runs now. She really has changed." Samus says to herself.
After what seems like hours, Zelda lets go of Ike. She smiles but remembers the pain and winces.
"You need a medic." Ike says urgently. He helps her stand and puts her arm around his neck. They start to walk and see Peach come through the doors with four mushroom doctors.
"Peach already got the medic?" Zelda asks.
"It's for Zero." Pit says, appearing in front of them. "Because your boyfriend injured her." He folds his arms and walks away.
Ike frowns and continues walking. *I remember we were friends at one point. What happened to that?*
They reach Samus and Peach.
"Zero…" Ike says hesitantly.
She looks up at him with a smirk.
"Calm down big boy. I'm fine." She says. The mushrooms lay her down on a pillow and start crushing an "M" pumpkin in a bowl. After they finish they rub it on Samus' wound.
"Ike, it's aright you can let go now." Zelda says.
He jumps and looks at her.
"Oh! Sorry." He takes her arm and uncurls it from his neck, smiling sheepishly. One of the mushrooms brings her a chair. They rub the extra pumpkin on her arm and wrap it in a white cloth.
"I'm sorry. Your bandana is covered with blood." Zelda frowns.
"It's alright. I get it ruined after every battle anyways." He takes the blue cloth from her hand and puts it in his pocket.
As Zelda and Samus rest, Ike and Peach try to shoo the crowd away.
"Samus definitely won!" one person shouts.
"Fight again!" another person rages.
"They will not fight again! Don't you people have something better to do?" Ike says, waving his arms around.
"Everyone, please just go home." Peach pleads.
The crowd frowns and glares at them but bit by bit they scatter about and disappear from the Pokemon stadium. The only on left is Pit. He walks towards Ike angrily.
"You've changed, Ike. I thought you were a good person. We used to be friends! Look at what you've done." Pit growls. He quickly reached for an arrow but Ike caught his arm.
"What's gotten into you lately?" he asks.
Pit smiles and cuts Ike's thigh with a small pocket knife. He runs out of the stadium.
"Ike!" Zelda calls and kneels beside him. He sits on the floor, holding his leg. "Why would Pit do this?" she searches frantically in his shirt pocket for the bandana. But Ike grabs her hand.
"It's alright, Zelda. I'm not hurt that badly." He puts her hand down.
"Pit likes you, Zelda." Samus smiles. "He has such a temper. Sigh. I never should've asked him to come." She leans back in her chair and looks up at the evening sky. "I'm sorry, Zelda."
