A/N: Here's the next part! Meta Knight's special arc is ending. And hey, he's going to sing! YAY! Ah. Torturing characters. I feel like mentioning that I now have three multi chapter fics. *groans* However, one of them is planned to be short. At least over seven chapters. This fic, however, will take a long time. And I am okay with that. Because I have my loyal readers to give me the inspiration and the will to go on!
-Month 2:Day 9 Ends. Month 2:Day 10 Begins-
"You're going so sing, huh?" Pikachu was smirking. "Great. Me? I'm going to practice some tricks with my electrical powers!"
To emphasize this, he brought up an electrical orb, juggling it before balancing it on his head, bringing out three other orbs to juggle and balance on his leg.
"Whatever... Now... what was I going to sing again...?" Wolf muttered. "Ah! Now I remember..."
Clearing his throat, he started his practice.
Meanwhile, Yoshi was practicing his comedy. "Meta Knight. What do you do when a girl is choking?"
"...What?" Meta Knight replied, strumming a few chords on a guitar he burrowed from Snake.
"You back up a few inches!" Yoshi stated, grinning.
...
"Oh, that's just wrong." Pikachu rasped, Yoshi laughing.
Wolf rolled his eyes. "...You like it dirty, and I'm not gonna lie~"
"Huh... You're sure singing that song in a slow, somewhat sultry manner." Meta Knight complimented.
"So do I, so do I~ Thanks man. I've heard some singing coming from Red and Pit when they were drunk." Wolf explained. "I wish I could I explain further, but that would sorta push this T-rating thing I heard about."
After a few more minutes of practicing, they were finally sent on stage."So Meta Knight, you're first as usual?" Pikachu asked.
The other smasher nodded. "Y-Yes. However, I'm not an expert at guitar since Fumu only taught me for about two weeks. But... I will try."
He cleared his throat. "I-I... I will most likely fail ALL OF YOU!"
That's when he broke down, sniffling. The other three facepalmed. After a few minutes, they calmed him down, and the knight went up.
The song he was playing on the string instrument... Was a little odd, and out of place. It sounded like a song from a movie. Maybe a trailer. Oh well, at least the song was marvelous enough for him to get a good score!
Now for Dedede. He appeared to have a similar idea, playing a string instrument, except he had a violin. And how he managed to play it decently is beyond me.
So, after that surprising accomplishment, the Pokémon were next. Pikachu did his electrical power tricky thingies, and Ivysaur did comedy. And by comedy, I mean extremely raunchy humor, causing Yoshi to frown because the latter thought the former stole his jokes. And tragically, the judges, AKA Starfy, did not enjoy their perfomances. Meaning that they received low scores.
Now was the break time. And what is Team Bioshock doing...?
"I CANNOT believe you, Pikachu!" Meta Knight hissed.
Said blonde frowned. He huffed, pulling his hood over his head. He turned his chair, and straddled it, so he was facing away from the blue-haired knight. "Hey, it's not my fault that they disliked my tricks."
"It is your fault! You should have practiced more!" Meta Knight snapped.
Pikachu glanced at him, brown eyes filled with rage. "Look, dude. I know you're irritated, and I know you want your rusty mask fixed, but you have to calm down. Too much stress can affect your performance."
Yoshi nodded. "He has a point."
Meta Knight narrowed his eyes. "Be quiet. I am trying to scold someone."
He cleared his throat, and glared at Pikachu. "You need to practice more! I swear if we lose I will-"
"You'll what? Rip my head off? Tear my heart out?! KILL ME?!" Pikachu whirled around. The look in his eyes was showing that he would snap any minute. "GO A-FUCKING-HEAD!"
Yoshi stepped back. Wolf sighed, rubbing his temple. "Look, guys. Calm down. We shouldn't get into a fight here. Yoshi and I are about to go on, so take a chill pill."
"QUIET!" Meta Knight spat, causing the albino to flinch. If Wolf was still a lupine and not a human, his ears and tail would be drooping.
"Meta Knight, you're going to ruin our chancing of living!" Pikachu barked.
The masked knight was becoming more and more irritated. "TOUGH! You NEED to practice more or we'll NEVER win!"
"Oh, bite me!"
"How about I stab you?!"
"I'd rather have you kick me to the ground and insult me!" Pikachu cried, hands curled into fists, some tears falling out of his eyes.
"OKAY! Break time over!" Yoshi announced, clapping his hands. His hair was slightly messy.
Meta Knight and Pikachu continued to glare at each other.
"I need my mask to be fixed. If you fail, that will never happen!" The former hissed.
"Go ahead and blame me! I don't give a damn!" The latter snapped.
"LET'S GO, DAMN IT!" Wolf shrieked.
So after a bicker, everyone who was involved with the talent show returned. Yoshi was the first to go up. He was slightly nervous due to the argument, but remained slightly calm. He had to improvise due to Ivysaur telling similar jokes. Luckily, Yoshi did a better a job at it. R-Pik was doing the Knife Game, and thankfully, he lost no fingers.
That left Wolf and Falco, who like Wolf, decided to sing a raunchy song. And they didn't like doing such a thing. However, they managed to pull it off... Somehow. I don't know. Use your dear, wild imagination!
Now came the results. They were as followed: Pikachu and Ivysaur have to go. The rest can stay.
Apparently, the judges had a change in rules. Not that anyone cared.
... Okay, that's a lie. Meta Knight cared... Actually, he complained.
"I cannot believe you, Pikachu." He hissed. "Great! Now my beautiful mask will never be fixed! And you're the one to blame!"
The blonde was officially angered. "Oh, so I'm the one to blame?! Look, the judges are the ones to blame! HELL, NO ONE IS TO BLAME!"
Yoshi and Wolf gaped at this.
"Why the fuck are you blaming me?!" Pikachu cried, fists tightening. "I-I can NOT believe this!"
"Well, you have to! My chances for having my mask fixed... My poor, poor mask... Having it fixed... Most likely will never happen!" Meta Knight snarked. "YOU'RE THE REASON WHY!"
Pikachu backed away, shaking, trembling. Meta Knight's rambling continued. "This mask is important to me! And it may never return to its original state because of you! GET OUT OF MY SIGHT, YOU DAMN FOOL!"
He then froze when he saw the sight in front of him. Pikachu was close to breaking down and crying right on the spot.
... Oh dear. Meta Knight thought.
"...F-Fine." Pikachu whimpered. "I-I'll leave. G-G-Good luck..."
He turned around, and slinked off, sniffling.
Wolf groaned. "Great job Meta Knight. You yelled at a blonde who was once a mouse all because he failed in helping you win a contest so you can fix your mask. Nice."
Yoshi nodded. "And because of your ranting to him, our chances of living and changing back to our real forms are lower than Pikachu's current self essteem!"
Meta Knight lowered his head, sighing. "...I am the worst kind of person."
"Dude, is this really worth a mask that can be fixed in some other way?" Wolf questioned.
"Yes." Meta Knight replied.
Wolf frowned. "Fuck this, I'm going to take a nap. I'm playing a piano for tomorrow."
Yoshi blinked as Wolf left. The former put his hands in his green pockets. "I-I'm going to sing a small song..."
He then, too, left. Meta Knight sighed, and sat down. "Oh dear... What am I to do?"
He rubbed his temples. "I am a terrible person. Oh... What am I going to do? I upset one of my friends."
He groaned. "I am the worst kind of person."
-Month 2:Day 10 Ends. Month 2:Day 11 Begins-
"So, apparently, the leader isn't the one who's going first, the parnters are." Wolf explained, glaring at Meta Knight when he said leader.
Meta Knight nodded. "You can go first, Wolf. J-Just don't fail! I-I need..."
"To get your mask fixed! I know... douchebag." The once lupine hissed.
Great. Now everyone dislikes me. Meta Knight sighed.
Wolf disappeared, going to the front of the stage. He was playing that famous song from Final Fantasy VI. Good score. Falco decided to play the piano as well, but this time it was a song from Final Fantasy IX. Again, good score. R-Pik and Yoshi sang their songs, and received decent scores. Meta Knight and Dedede? The victory dance. Who wouldn't give the Kirby Victory dance a good score? Anywho... The ones to go were Yoshi, who sang a song by Train, and R-Pik, who had the same idea. The two received decent scores. So, who went out? The partners. All of them. Leaving only the leaders.
Well... We know were this is going...
"You son of a FUCKING ASSHOLE! I'M GONNA KILL YOU!" Wolf screamed, about to pounce of Meta Knight, Yoshi holding the former back.
"Look, it is not my fault that you two did not participate well enough." Meta Knight stated, cradiling his broken mask.
Wolf's eye twiched. "Fuck this, I'm going to take a nap."
He shoved Yoshi to the side, and stormed off. Yoshi gulped.
"Meta Knight, you have to calm down." He said. "I-It's not nice! Y-You're acting a bit too bossy and cruel, and harsh... Your expectations are kinda higher than a plateau..."
Meta Knight sighed. He looked away. "I-I know... I'm being too harsh. I am aware of that... All because of my precious... precious mask."
Yoshi frowned. "Well, now you're going to have to handle this all by your stupid self. Enjoy!"
He trotted off. Meta Knight groaned. "I am a bad knight. I might as well... Sing. I guess. B-But what?"
He thought about it. "Pikachu, Wolf, and Yoshi all sang songs by a male, each were different genres, about something different... So... What am I going to sing about...?"
He then got it. "Time to practice."
-Month 2:Day 11 Ends. Month 2:Day 12 Begins-
Meta Knight looked at the audience. I don't see them... Well, I deserve it. I've acting like a disrespectful, controlling, prick...
He sighed. "But if I win, perhaps they may forgive me... Yeah... Well... Dedede is almost done with his song."
As soon as the once penguin finished, Meta Knight went up. He tapped the mic, then observed the audience, finally catching sight of his friends. Wolf and Pikachu had these angry glares, Yoshi just weakly smiled. Sighing, Meta Knight started.
Everyone in the audience reeled back in their seats. Meta Knight... Knows how to sing. Heck, he CAN sing. Pikachu's jaw dropped, Wolf was shocked, Yoshi was cheering on. Pretty soon, Meta Knight finished his song, which was a Simple Plan song. And so, we all know who won. Really, we all know what was coming. Team Bioshock. They win.
Yoshi ran up the stage, hugging Meta Knight. Pikachu and Wolf smirked.
Meta Knight smiled weakly at them.
"I... I apologize. I-I know that acting so controlling, over a mask that I could fix in other ways... was foolish." He bowed. "And so, I will allow your items to be fixed instead of my mask."
Pikachu raised an eyebrow. "Really?"
Meta Knight nodded. "A gift. A way to say sorry. I truly am. Pikachu, I didn't mean to lower your self-esteem. Wolf, I did not mean to grow crazy. Yoshi, I didn't mean to act so cruel."
He bowed again. "Please... A-Accept my apologies. I-I am the worst kind of person. First I go crazy and wish to kill everyone, next I insult and be cruel to you three just so I can get my mask fixed. I am selfish. A bad knight."
Wolf grinned. "Well... If you say so pal. Just don't go insane again. Like Pikachu."
"Shut it." The blonde snapped. He brought out a game card of Luigi's Mansion:Dark Moon. "I need this fixed."
Yoshi held up a gameshark, putting on a goofy smile. Wolf held up a Kindle-Fire. Meta Knight smiled.
"Alright. Let us bring those to the Ancient Minister." He exclaimed.
"Yup! Oh, and Meta Knight..." PIkachu started.
"Hm?"
"Speaking of the Anicent Minister... He said our chances of living is 40 percent, and because of your bossiness, your mask is going to be in the Minister's possesion for two days."
"...R-Really?" Meta Knight almost squeaked.
"Uh, yeah. Really." Pikachu replied.
...
And thus, Meta Knight shrieked every single colorful world in his dictionary.
-Month 2:Day 11 Ends. Month 2:Day 12 Begins-
A/N: Not sure if that was cheesy or meh. But whatever. So, we had an apologetic Pikachu, a kind Wolf, and Meta Knight learning how to not flip a bitch. All that is left is Yoshi. YAY! Mein gott... Anyway... As for ideas... I have two. Heat wave *buys confetti so I can thank riverraiden I use it*, or another character (or two) going insane... If it's the latter, oh boy, I'm going to have fun with that!
