A/N: Man this took me a long time. I had a hard time deciding on how this chapter would roll.
Pikachu shuddered. "Man. I'm way to young to die!"
"Shouldn't we inform the Ancient Minister?" Wolf asked.
"I AM ACTUALLY AWARE OF META KNIGHT'S NOW SADISTIC, CRAZY NATURE."
The three yelped.
"Oh! Ancient Minister. We, uh, didn't see you there." Yoshi gulped.
"NOW, YOU ASSUME THAT I SHOULD FIX THIS, RIGHT?"
"Uh... Right."
"WELL... YOU'RE WRONG. THIS IS YOUR PROBLEM. YOU DO REMEMBER WHY I TRANSFORMED YOU INTO HUMANS, RIGHT?"
"God damn it." Wolf huffed.
"But... He's seriously insane. The situation is really... you know... serious." Pikachu explained.
"YOU ARE CORRECT, BUT IF YOU DON'T SOLVE THIS ON YOU OWN-"
"Yeah, yeah. Our chances of living will be lowered. We get it." Yoshi groaned. "We'll stop Meta Knight."
The Ancient Minister nodded, and left. The three moaned.
"For crying out loud!" Pikachu cried, hands tangling in blonde hair. "We're gonna die! We'll be slaughtered by our friend!"
"I don't wanna die." Yoshi whimpered.
"Same here, but hey, if we wanna live, we gotta calm Meta Knight." Wolf stated, scratching his head.
Pikachu nodded. "But... How?"
"Huh. Good question."
"Oh! Hi, Meta Knight! How are you doing?" Kirby happily asked.
The knight darkly chuckled. "I'm doing just fine."
"You don't sound like it. Is your mask on too tight or something? Do you need it adjusted?"
The pink-head grasped the mask, shocked that the older smasher is allowing him to due so. Kirby tilted his head, and saw that the mask wasn't in need of adjusting. Instead, the younger smasher decided to take it off, even more shocked that he was being allowed to do that. Kirby then snatched it off, and nearly yelped. Meta Knight's eyes weren't that pure gold, they were a deadly red. The poor kid swore he saw fangs when the knight grinned.
"M-Meta Knight?" Kirby whimpered.
Yoshi blinked, and looked around wildly. "Did you hear that?"
"Hear what?" Pikachu and Wolf asked as they tried to come up with a apln.
"A scream?"
"No, why do you ask?" The blonde questioned.
"I seriously swear I heard a scream!" The green-head cried.
"Dude, are you crazy or something?" Wolf asked.
"I think he's delusional." Pikachu said.
Yoshi growled. "Guys, I'm not joking around! I really think someone just screamed. I think it was Kirby!"
Pikachu sighed. "Fine. Where do you think the scream came from?"
"Sounds like it came from the video game room. I think."
"Let's go..."
"Hloy shit, Kirby!" Pikachu cried.
The pink head was rocking back and forth. "M-Meta Knight... H-He's gone... M-M-Mad!"
Wolf groaned. "Oh no."
"He's been scarred." Yoshi muttered.
"Wh-What happened to M-Meta K-Knight?!" Kirby wailed.
"Well, Kirby... He, uh... Kinda got pissed. And he wants us dead cause we argued to much." Pikachu explained.
The younger smasher blinked. "Wait... You three are the reason why he went insane? Fix him! Make him happy!"
"That's what we're going to do... If only he wasn't trying to stain the floor with our blood and organs!" Wolf hissed.
...Ew... Yoshi shuddered.
The fuck is wrong with him?! Pikachu shivered.
"Just go make him happy!" Kirby hissed.
Damn! Bipolar much? Pikachu gulped.
"Okay, okay. We'll fix Meta Knight." The blonde said, sweating.
"Hm? Meta Knight? What's wrong with you?" Falco asked, looking away from Ike who was injuring Pit.
The indigo haired knight frowned. "Oh, nothing. What's going on here? Looks interesting."
The once anthro chuckled. "Well... Ike called Pit a sissy, Pit called him stupid, Ike got angry and now this is happening."
Meta Knight smirked. "I like this scene."
"...What?"
"Very fun to watch."
"Uh, Meta Knight?"
"Oh so fun to witness."
"You okay?"
"Of course. Watching such a scene... It makes me... Happy." The knight stated.
"I thought you despised it when friends fight." Falco replied.
"Oh, no. You're wrong. This fighting... It's amazing. Enjoyable to watch." Meta Knight remarked.
"Dude, are you seriously okay?"
"Why do you keep asking me that? I am the picture of health. What is wrong with watching such a lovely fight unfold?"
Falco gulped. What the fuck is wrong with him?! He's usually so calm. And not sadistic. Unlike Wolf...
"Are you really okay? I mean, why are you acting so... So sadistic?" He asked.
Meta Knight laughed. Oh, and let me tell you, that laugh wasn't not happy at all.
"Sadistic? Whatever are you talking about, Falco?" He questioned in a dark voice, unsheathing his blade. "Sadistic? Me? Are you insane?"
Falco backed away. "You're starting to creep me out."
Meta Knight edged closer, evil smirk still plastered on his face... Behind his mask. "I still don't understand what you mean, friend."
"Okay, you need to stop and calm down."
"You're being a bit cruel here."
"You're the one pointing a weapon at m-a-ah... Meta Knight?" Falco looked over to where Ike and Pit were fighting. Sadly, they were no longer there. ...Ah shit.
"You're defying me. Questioning me. Do you know how enraged that makes me feel?"
"Uh... S-S-Sorry?... M-Meta Knight? B-Buddy?"
It was at this point that Falco officially knew that Meta Knight did go insane.
"H-Hey... Uh, look, I apologize for what I said. N-No hard feelings, right?"
Meta Knight chuckled. "Yes... No hard feelings..."
"...Help..."
"Come on! I heard another scream!" Pikachu hollered, running outside to the garden, the others following.
What they found was a beaten Falco lying on the ground, groaning in serious pain.
"H-Holy crap! Falco, you okay?!" Wolf cried.
"M-Meta... Kn-Kn-Knigh... t... In-In... Insa... ne..." Falco moaned. "H-Help..."
"Oh dear." Yoshi whimpered. "This is really bad."
Pikachu gulped. He then pointed at Wolf. "Hey! Take Falco and make sure he gets medical attention!"
"Wh-What!? Why me?" Wolf hissed.
"Go!" Pikachu ordered. "Or do you really want her to get mad."
That's right you tell him, Pikachu! You tell him... (1)
"...Okay, I'll go." Wolf muttered. He bent over to pluck Falco off the ground. He slumped the scathed smasher over his shoulders and went back to the mansion.
"Alright... We gotta find Meta Knight... And stop him." Pikachu said.
Yoshi nodded. "But... Where could he be?"
"Maybe right here."
"Now, don't you worry your lil' tushie, Wolf. Your bo-I mean you pal is gonna be alright!" Jigglypuff stated, skipping around the smasher, curly pink hair bouncing.
Wolf groaned. "He's not a pal of mine. You got that?"
Jigglypuff giggled. "Sure... Whatever."
"You know I can hear you from inside the room!" Falco hissed from the other... room.
"You know, you can-" Jigglypuff started.
"Shut up and leave Puffy." Wolf muttered.
The pink-head huffed and left.
Wolf sighed. Damn why does this have to be so complicated.
He flinched when he heard familiar screams.
"Uh oh."
Pikachu and Yoshi were screaming their heads off. Running from the insane Meta Knight.
"M-Meta Knight! Wh-What's become of you? STOP!" Pikachu cried.
"Sorry. But I fear that I'm unsure what you're speaking of. This is my normal self." Meta Knight replied.
"OH GOD. WE LOST HIM! HE'S OFFICIALLY GONE!" Yoshi wailed.
Pikachu gulped. "I hope not! He could kill everyone!"
"Do-Don't give him i-ideas!"
"Hm... It does sound nice."
The two fleeing smashers stopped. They turned around, and saw Meta Knight heading the other way.
"... H-He's really going to attack the others?!" Pikachu cried.
"Nice job, Pikachu!" Yoshi hissed.
"Damn it! What do we do now?!" The blonde was now pissed instead of scared. He turned to his friend, and his jaw dropped.
The green-heads hair was messy, and his eyes seemed to bulge. It was red from crying out of fear. He looked as if he were ill.
Okay. I'm losing Yoshi here. That's fucking great. Pikachu groaned.
"Yoshi. You warn the others. Tell them to hide. Wolf and I will take care of things! Got it?" He ordered.
Yoshi nodded. "Hai, Pikachu-senpai!"
Said blonde sighed, but gave a nod of approval. "Alright. Stay safe."
"You, too."
Wolf didn't even have the chance to investigate the screams. Meta Knight was standing in front of him, blood lust in his eyes.
Ah shit. The silver-haired male thought to himself as the crazed knight approached him.
"Uh, Meta Knight? Buddy? You in there?" The once lupine whimpered.
"Sorry. I don't understand what you mean. But never again will that happen." The knight replied.
"Damn it. You officially lost it, huh? Fine! I'll take you on!"
Meta Knight smiled deviously behind his mask. "Ah. How nice of you to fight back. Very well. It is good for you to fight back before your death."
"B-Bring it on!" Wolf hissed.
Meta Knight gripped his sword and started to charge towards the nervous smasher. You'd think Wolf would fight back, but he didn't. Why? Well, a knight is about to attack him, and he has the look of sadism in his eyes. So, can you blame him for being freaked out. A shot then rang out, and the Knight grunted and stopped. He panted, and dropped his weapon. He had been shot. But not by Wolf!
The shaking smasher blinked. "...T-The hell?!"
"Why were you just standing there? I thought you were Wolf O'Donnel. A fearless captain!" A familiar voice taunted.
Wolf sighed. "Tch. Shut up, Falco! Shouldn't you be resting?"
The deep blue-head chuckled. "Maybe. But when you see someone who's about to get his ass kicked, you can't help but... help."
Meta Knight growled. "F-Fools! You think you can defeat me?!"
"...Uh, yes?" Wolf replied nonchalantly.
"Well... YOU THOUGHT WRONG."
"God fucking da-"
Pikachu surveyed the mansion, slowly. He looked at every nook and cranny, seeing where the others were hiding. Everyone seemed to be safe. Well... Almost everyone. The sounds of yelling filled his ears, causing him to shudder.
"That can't be good." He gulped. "Okay... What's going on now?"
He looked in the direction where the screams came from. And from that direction, he saw Wolf and Falco running towards him, freaked out looks on their faces.
"Guys? What's going on?" The blonde asked.
"I-I-It's Meta Knight!" Wolf howled.
"He's seriously gonna kill us!" Falco cawed.
(A/N: See what I did there? :D)
The two passed Pikachu, who then looked back at where they were running from, and saw Meta Knight, which caused him to flee.
"Okay, okay, okay! We gotta find a place to hide!" He cried.
"No shit!" Wolf hissed.
"And the crazy knight who wants everyone dead?!" Falco questioned.
"W-We'll find a way to fix him! Right now, the others are hiding!...S-Somewhere." Pikachu explained. "B-But we have to stall Meta Knight so we can lose him and hide somewhere!"
He suddenly stop and threw a Thunderbolt at the ground, causing Meta Knight to stop as smoke from the attack clouded his vision. The three fleeing smashers ran as fast as they can, as fast as Sonic can, as fast as a Ninjask can. They then ended up in Wolf's room, where they hid in his closet.
"Okay... So what's the plan, blondie?" Wolf asked.
Pikachu blinked. "Uh... Well... I was hoping that you had a plan... Do you have one?"
"Well, considering the fact that we were just chased by a crazy knight... What do you think?!" Falco hissed.
"Uh... Good point." Pikachu sighed. "Man, shouldn't the Ancient Minister be taking care of this?"
"Oh... He's not here... He deserted you~" A familiar voice hummed making the three incognito smashers' blood run cold.
At that the closet doors were slashed open, and in front of them was Meta Knight.
"So long, boys."
Yoshi flinched. "D-Did you here that?"
"I-I think so." Kirby replied.
Lucario exhaled. "Th-Those screams. They sounded... familiar."
"Wait... D-Do you think... M-Meta Knight... killed someone?"
Lucario gasped. "A-Are you seriously thinking that?!"
Kirby sobbed. "Wh-Why would Meta Knight do such a thing?!"
Lucario sat up. "I don't know, but I'm going to stop him."
"T-Tommorow?" Yoshi asked.
Lucario blinked. "Y-Yes. Tomorrow."
-Month 1:Day 14 Over. Month 1: Day 15 Begins-
"You two stay here. I'm going to investigate." Lucario explained. "If someone comes in, stay still and silent as possible. Understand?"
The younger two nodded, trembling as they saw the blue-black haired smasher leave.
Lucario took a deep breathe. "Okay. If I remember... The screams... they seemed to come from... Wolf's room. Alright. Let's go."
He slowly walked down the halls, the only noises being his deep breathing, heart beats, and footsteps. Speaking of his footsteps, they echoed throughout the mansion, and the echoes seemed to last an eternity.
Meta Knight... What has happened to you?
He exhaled a couple of times when he was finally at Wolf's room. After a few minutes, he opened the door, and was extremely shocked at what he found.
Three smashers. All critically injured. All covered in blood. Luckily, they weren't dead... What? You're expecting me to say their names? You should know who it is! Fine! The three smashers in question where Pikachu, Wolf, and Falco! There!
Lucario ran up to the injured smashers. He was relieved to see that they were breathing. But they were just barely alive. They were breathing heavily, greatly weakened. Lucario gulped.
"H-Hey? Are you guys alright? P-Please answer me!"
Sadly, they didn't. Well, they did moan in pain if that counts as a reply.
Lucario sighed. "Alright. That's it. It's time to bust some heads."
A/N: Lucario is pissed off! Oh, and yeah. Pikachu, Wolf, and Falco got attacked. But they're not dead!
(1)- If you have read my Bio, then you would know that one of my favorite crack couples is from the Smash Bros Fandom. And you would know what couple it is. I'm too lazy to tell you. Bleh... It is a boyxboy and all. Since I'm mainly a slash fan, you would expect some jokes of that in here. Along with references from some of my favorite shows.
Anyhow, we'll see what happens next time in this arc.
