A/N: Month 2 doesn't look well for everyone... And because I'm such a cruel author, Month 3 will probably be the same thing. Quick warning... This part of this arc has some cruelty towards Pikachu and Meta Knight, as they're going to take some... beatings.
-Month 2: Day 15 Ends, Month 2: Day 16 Begins-
"Yes! You're alive!" Pikachu grinned as Meta Knight woke up.
"Wh-What in the... Why is your head wrapped up in gauze?... And what i-is this pain in my ch-chest...?!" Meta Knight groaned, sitting up. "What happened?"
Pikachu bit his lip. "Well, bad things. You got knocked out because of our angry pilots."
"And you?"
"Same thing."
"Damn it." Meta Knight muttered as he got out of his bed, wincing. "Ahh... What are we going to do?... Wait... what day is it?"
"The sixteenth." Pikachu gulped. "It's eight o' clock."
He jumped out of the seat he was on. "We need to stop them. Or bad things will happen."
"Obviously!" Meta Knight snapped. "I have a feeling that this will greatly affect us."
If I had to describe the scenery in one word, I would choose chaotic. Bullets and lasers were flying everywhere, fire occasionally sprouted (most likely from random molotov cocktails that the pilots made), and everyone around was screaming, running, freaking out, etcetera. Too make things worse, the Minister was trapped in his room, no means of escape. And Pikachu was having a panic attack.
Lovely, right?
Of course. That's why we're all here.
So, let's get back to the point before I trail off.
Pikachu and Meta Knight were on the verge of screaming and breaking down. After taking a few breaths, they decided to go after Wolf last, taking care of Fox and Falco beforehand; Meta Knight calms down Fox and vice versa.
Let's start with Meta Knight since he needs more screen time (if that's the correct term to use for this).
The Star Warrior slowly approached the tan-haired male.
"Fox... Calm down." He started. "I-I only want to help you."
The Arwing pilot growled, slowly turning to face the blue-nette.
"...How can you? You don't know who destroyed my Arwing." Fox hissed.
"No one destroyed it!" Meta Knight snapped. "The impact from the explosions destroyed it!"
Fox raised an eyebrow. "Why should I believe you?!"
There was a pause. Meta Knight gulped. "L-Look, why would anyone even want to destroy them? Everyone knows the huge risk factor if one were to do that! So calm dow- yeek!"
He jumped to the right, dodging a bullet.
"F-Fox! Wh-What are you doing?" He backed away, shaking.
The pilot stepped forward. "Trying to cover your tracks, aren't you?"
He shot again, the knight luckily avoiding it.
"A-Are... Are you implying th-that... I was the one who destroyed them?! Wh-Why would I even do such a thing?!"
"Shut up!"
More shooting. And avoiding it. Soon, everything turned into a shoot-and-runaway thing. Which was still a negative, since other smashers got in the way, getting hit with the attacks, pushed into tables and corners. Eventually, Meta Knight had to block Fox's attacks in order for anyone else not to get hurt... The plan didn't work out, as the attacks were reflected off Meta Knight's weapon, once again, landing on others. Meta Knight grimaced, deciding to lead the angered pilot outside and away from the mansion.
And hell broke out. Fox was wildly shooting, some attacks landing on the Star Warrior, who grunted or yelped at the pain. The attacks became more sporadic, causing Meta Knight to fly in order to avoid everything. Hoping it would knock him out, Meta Knight decided to use Mach Tornado... Only to be forcefully grabbed, slammed into the ground, and the cherry on top being a blaster pressed against his head.
Pikachu gulped as he was shoved against the wall. He whimpered seeing the blaster pressed against his chest.
"F-Falco... Y-You don't n-need to do this..." Pikachu squeaked. "P-Please calm down."
The pilot growled. "Why should I?"
"I-I... Y-You're going to cause a horrific chain of events if you do!"
"...Shut up."
"B-But-! D-Dude, you're going to kill us all!" The blonde hissed. "Why the hell can't you see th- aaah!"
He dropped to his knees, clutching his chest. "Wh-What... Wh-What are you... D-Doing... Fa- ghek!"
"I told you to shut up!" Falco snapped, kicking the yellow-clad male's chest, causing the latter to fall down with a yelp.
The once mouse groaned, slowlying getting up to his knees, panting. "D-Dude... C-Calm down... I-I'd never destroy your Arwing... I-I know how important it is to you, so I'd never do a thi- aaaah!"
Another blast to the chest. "F-Falco... S-Stop... P-Please... F-Friend?"
Meta Knight let out grunt as he was kicked to the side. His head and left arm were serverly injured to do Fox's blaster. As if getting kicked and tossed around wasn't enough...
"Now tell me the truth... Did you destroy my Arwing?" Fox asked, slight demonic tone in his voice.
"...I-I did nothing..." Meta Knight said, weakly. "B-Believe me... Ple- nnn!"
A foot connected to chest, sending him flying, wheezing due to the pain. He couldn't stand up, even sit up. "S-Sto... Stop... P-Please..."
Fox growled. "Why should I?!"
Another kick. "Tell me!"
"...W-We're..." This is going to be cheesy... "We're friends... C-Close friends...And you know... They never do cruel things to each other... right?"
The pilot backed away. "...Friends? Close... Friends?"
"Th-That's right." Meta Knight weakly smiled. "Close friends. We'd never to bad things to one another. No matter what... S-So... C-Can you... C-Calm down... N-Not hurt me... P-Ple... Please...? F-Fox? Y-You have to stop... I-In order for your friends... And yourself to be happy... Y-You h-hear me...?"
"I-I... I'm... I am so freaking sorry." Th pilot started, crouching in front of the injured smasher. "I-I... L-Look... I-I don't know... Wh-What got into me... I-I am so sorry!"
"...Ah... I-It's fine... D-Don't worry." Meta Knight replied.
"Don't worry?! Dude, I smacked the ever living shit out of you!"
"Y-Yeah... B-But y-you didn't really mean it."
"I-I..." Fox sighed. "I-I really am... T-Truly sorry..."
"Y-Yes... I-I know." Meta Knight groaned, slowly getting up on his feet. "I-I'll manage."
"...O-Okay." Fox muttered. "...H-Hey... Wasn't Pikachu trying to help...?"
Meta Knight took a step back. "Oh no."
"Ow!" Pikachu cried as he was kicked into the wall.
"What do you mean?!" Falco hissed.
"Friend... Buddy... Partner..." Pikachu explained. "That's what you are to me... A-And vice versa. Wh-What kind of friend does this to his buddy? A-A bad one. A-And you don't wanna be the bad one... R-Right."
"...Explain further or else."
"Y-You're my buddy. I don't wanna hurt you in order to stop you from doing this. I-It's stupid... A-And you shouldn't hurt me because... It's pointless... I-I know I'm being kinda hypocrital... B-But I really need you to stop now... P-Please..."
Falco bit his lip. "Y-You really think an exlposion's impact destroyed my Arwing?"
"Y-Yes... I-I'm sure." Pikachu replied.
Falco sighed, and helped the blonde get up to his feet. "H-Hey, man, I'm s-sorry for... N-Nearly killing you there... I-I... Uh... Don't know what came over me..."
Pikachu smiled. "N-No worries. Certain things can drive you to insanity. It happened to me once, so I feel for ya."
"PIKACHU!"
"Oh... Hey Meta Knight."
"Y-You're okay... What a relief."
"I managed to stop Falco without your help, by the way." Pikachu pointed out.
"Y-Yeah, yeah." Meta Knight muttered.
"Er, not to intrude, but you two should really get some sleep." Fox suggested. "We'll take care of Wolf."
"No, no." Meta Knight replied. "We'll handle that. You two should apologize to everyone, that way, the minister might actually not punish you." He faced Pikachu. "I hope you're ready, friend. I believe he may be more difficult to convince than these two."
"Yeah... It was kinda unbelievable that the friendship thing worked." Pikachu added.
Falco growled. "Excuse me?"
Fox raised an eyebrow. "Isn't that kinda ironic?"
Meta Knight blinked. "L-Let's just go already..."
Pikachu was thrown against the tree, letting out a weak cry.
Meta Knight panted, pointing his sword at Wolf. "W-We only want to help you, Wolf. I-I assure you, we didn't destroy your Arwi- gah!"
He slid back as he was blasted in the chest. He coughed. "S-Stop..."
Wolf didn't reply, but instead blasted Pikachu who was slowly getting up to his feet. The blonde yelped, falling on his side, panting. Meta Knight quickly ran to his side, and saw that he was critically injured. He bit his lip, unsure of what to do.
"Damn it." He hissed. "Wolf... Stop."
"...No." Was the reply he received. Meta Knight turned to face the pilot...
And saw him holding a Smash Ball.
"Sorry buddy."
And that's when everything went dark.
-Month 2: Day 16 Ends, Month 2: Day 17 Begins-
"...Ngh..." Meta Knight shifted. "Wh-What...?"
"Yay! He's alive!"
"...Oh. What a shame."
"Well aren't you just a ray of sunshine?"
"Like you're the one to talk."
Who's talking...? I-I don't recognize any of these voices. Meta Knight was confused.
"My-My head." Pikachu groaned.
"Yay! He's alive, too!"
"Double shame."
"Will you shut up, asshole."
"Says the dude who acted the same way to the main characters when he first met them."
...
"What the hell?!" Pikachu cried, openining his eyes, sitting up.
Meta Knight coughed, slowly sitting up. His eyes fluttered, before finally opening. And he shared the same expression as Pikachu. "Who are..."
"WHO THE HELL ARE YOU GUYS?!" Pikachu shrieked.
A/N: Yup. They actually failed to solve something.
And now some weirdos are in the house. Who are the weirdos? Just wait until the next arc.
