Entry 054
Dear Diary,
My parents had a fight today. I think they were deciding what to do with my education. My Father wants me to go to Rose Academy while Mother wants me at Velvet Bordering School. I hope I at least have a say in this.
Sincerely,
Prince of Roses
Chapter 002: Stop and Smell The Roses
Rose heard a knock on her door. She sat up from her bed and readjusted herself before saying, "enter". Her door opened and she saw Corrin. She was a bit surprised to see him. "Ah. Corrin? What are you doing here?"
"I just came to thank you for saving me," he thanked.
"It's nothing special. I do this all the time." She looked down at her lap and sighed. "Can I ask you something?"
"Sure." He closed the door behind and walked towards her queen sized bed and sat on it next to her.
"Do… Do you trust me? No matter what I do? You'll believe in me, right?"
"Of course. But why are you asking me this now?"
"No reason. I just wanted to know since I just came out from the blue."
"But Mario knows you and he's a nice guy, so I do trust you."
Rose just smiled. "You are just too kind."
Outside Her Room
Ike placed a glass cup on the door, hearing everything they were saying. Link was just watching with interest. "Sooooo…" Link trailed off waiting for an answer.
"...Something about trust," Ike answered.
"That's how you lower yourself to a fuck boy."
Ike stopped listening and glared over at Link who was just shaking his head violently. "I swear it wasn't me!"
"It was me!" The voice was high pitched and Ike knew who it belonged to. A small pink puffball was standing next to Link with a soft serve ice cream cone. "Boi, I say boi- if you don't get off the ground, I'll tell Corrin that you were the one who burned his closet! But since he's too nice, he would never think it was you!"
"Damn you…" Ike growled at Kirby.
Kirby's expression grew dark and evil. "Would you like some "love pellets"?" Out of nowhere, Kirby brought out a pack of Tic Tacs.
Ike slammed the small plastic container filled with white mints out of Kirby's stub hand. Kirby walked back slowly out of Ike's sight. "Serves him right."
"Is it true that you have the mind of a pure fuck boy," Link asked Ike, still curious about what Kirby said.
"No!"
The door Ike was leaning on opened of quickly, making the mercenary fall over to his side. "Ike," Rose questioned. "Pervert much?"
"No-no! I just wanted to…" Ike looked over at Link for help. Link just shrugged.
"Um, Rose? Ike just wanted to see if he had the mind of a fuck boy, and it looks like he doesn't!"
"Ohh? If you don't mind, I would like to go eat lunch, but I heard that you guys were doing team brawls." Corrin appeared at the doorway with Rose. "Corrin offered me to come watch, so I hope you don't mind."
"I don't mind. It's just that I don't mind the fact that dragon boy is with you! How about we go right now?" Ike stood up and walked away from them. Link have them a nervous stare.
"You guys look like a couple standing there side by side together."
"Y-you… Really? No! We're just… friends. Just friends." She smiled while blushing a lot.
"Let's get going before we're late for the afternoon brawls," Link suggested.
They all run through the halls to go to the brawl room.
Brawl Room
And the winner is… Duck Hunt!
The room basically had a large projector and a computer with the brawl settings and functions. There was a ton of seats on from the projectors so people could watch. There was also 8 transporters side by side- which happened to teleport people to the stage.
"This is amazing," Rose said in awe as she walked in with Link and Corrin.
"Link," Lucina called. "It's a Legend of Zelda battle against Super Mario."
"Okay!" Link walked over to an empty transporter right next to Zelda.
"We can sit right here and watch," Corrin said. He pointed over to the spectator area filled with some other Smashers.
"O-okay." They walked over there and sat down. Corrin felt a light tap on the back of his shoulders. He turned back and saw Snake with Bayonetta.
"It's time for shooting lessons, kid," Snake said bluntly.
"What?! I-" Bayonetta handed Corrin a pistol and grabbed him from his seat and slumped him over her shoulder. "I never asked for this."
"Yeah right. You'll learn how to use one," Bayonetta said. "It'll be good for self-defense when a burglar breaks in."
"I can't kill a man. I never even killed a man in my life!"
"That's the spirit," Snake said. He looked over at Rose who was entranced by Snake's looks. "You're Rose, right?"
"Yeah. You're really hot!" She covered her mouth in shock. Snake just smirked. "I mean- can I watch?"
"Sure, but are you sure you wouldn't try shooting a pistol. It's good for defense."
"That would be nice." Snake lifted her from her seat and left the brawl room with his crew.
In The Backyard
Corrin stood outside in the field with a black pistol in his right hand. A target that was 30 feet away from him stood right before him. The wind blew gently as he stood there. Bayonetta, Rose and Snake watched Corrin from a good distance.
"I want to see you try and shoot first," Bayonetta ordered. "We can analyze what we need to change about your position."
"Understood," Corrin said uneasy. He brought his gun up while shaking violently. Snake had a really bad feeling about what what going to happen next. Corrin's finger was on the trigger, but he hesitated to release the bullet. He finally urged himself to release the trigger. Once he did, waited to hear a soft ploft sound from the target. Instead he heard the sound of the window breaking. He looked to his right and saw a broken window at the 4th floor. He dropped his gun in disbelief.
"Kid, that was so bad you were shaking and you closed your eyes shut as you shot the bullet. We definitely need more training and practice," Snake snickered. He brought a cigar out from his pocket along with a lighter. "I still can't believe you managed to shoot Mewtwo's window." He lit the cigar up and put the lighter away in his pocket. "Let's continue tomorrow since I know that you'll be working on his window all day today."
"Corrin, you really suck," Rose commented.
"...hey, it's my first time," he said angrily while he was turning a deep shade of red. "Besides, I didn't even ask for this."
"Well, it's kinda obvious you need more of this just in case a burglar breaks in."
"If you guys wanna go out to eat, I'll be paying," Bayonetta offered. "My treat."
"I'm in," Snake said. He blew some smoke out from his mouth. He looked over at Rose and asked if she wanted to come. Her obvious answer was yes as she went inside with them, leaving Corrin.
Meanwhile, Mewtwo returned to his room after a good winning streak in his afternoon brawls. He stopped in his tracks in the state of shock when he saw his window was completely shattered into a thousand pieces. He flew over to his window and looked outside, seeing Corrin with a worried face. "Hey! Pokemon wannabe! Did you break my window," he muttered darkly.
"I'm sorry," he cried out. "I tried to shoot this gun at the target, but I ended up breaking your window!"
Mewtwo just blinked twice, not fulling understanding how he broke his window when he had an obvious target. "You really suck, kid. Even a Magikarp can shoot better and it has no hands!"
"Hey! It's my first time and I didn't even ask for this!"
"If you didn't ask for this, then who was the who asked for it?"
"You tried to trick Snake by telling him that Corrin wanted shooting lessons just to be with Rose? You're really dumb."
"You gotta admit, it was brilliant. Looks like Corrin's afternoons will be filled with gun lessons everyday, so it's more time with Rose for me."
"I have to admit, that was pretty smart, Roy."
"Why thank you, Marth."
"What are you guys talking about?"
"Hey, Robin. You know Rose?"
"That really smart girl with incredible healing powers? Yeah, I know Rose."
"Isn't she pretty?"
"Yeah, and she might compete with one of my waifus- I mean, yeah, she's pretty."
"I'll pretend I didn't hear that. Anyways, you think she has a boyfriend?"
"That's an obvious one. Of course she doesn't. Her makeup, her flawless hair, her outfit- another way of saying, "I'm single, boys". For one thing, it's obvious that she's from a royal family based on her clothing. Another thing is she's into men like Snake. His voice, his hair, his body structure. It's obvious he can woo her just by doing nothing. You guys better prove you're worth it if you wanna get some of her royal booty."
"Wow, Robin, I didn't you knew that much."
"As a tactician, it's my job to stalk people on Facebo- I mean learn more about people."
"How come nobody knows who's talking right now?"
"I don't know. Where are we anyways?"
"Hmm, not sure. Who was talking to me?"
"It was me."
"Who's me?"
"Marth. Wait who am I talking to?"
"Robin."
"Where are we?"
"I'm afraid I can't answer that."
Bayonetta, Snake and Rose
They were walking down the streets of Smashville, passing by many fast food restaurants. Bayonetta didn't want to eat at McDonald's, Burger King or Wendy's. Lots of people came and went out of the restaurants looking very happy. Rose noticed their facial expressions and asked if they were going to any of those restaurants. Bayonetta shook her head. "If you guys didn't know…" She looked left and right to make sure no strangers were near her at the time. "Between you and me, I hear at fast food restaurants, they cook food with fake fire."
"How?!"
"That's what I want to know. Many say it's the work of a demon from hell. Many say it's just a gift from God that burgers can be cooked in less than a minute with fake fire."
Rose had her eyes widened, not sure how to respond to that. "Um, yeah. So, where are we going?"
"We're almost there."
They kept walking for what seemed like hours, but they finally reached their destination when Bayonetta stopped in her tracks. This made Snake drop the cigar out from his mouth. He gave Bayonetta the "you have good taste" look, confusing Rose. The place looked like a stereotypical grandmother's house from the cartoons with the old fashioned painted white fence, perfect green grass and porch with two rocking chairs near the entrance. The house was surrounded by many other houses similar to the individual one Bayonetta stopped at. "It's good that I'm wearing my good outfit today." Bayonetta wore her regular outfit.
"You're still wearing your same outfit," Snake pointed out.
"This one's silver," she pointed out. Snake scanned Bayonetta and noticed that her bodysuit was a nice color of silver. "Anyways, let's eat." She brought her guns out along with Snake. This caused Rose to grow uneasy. The two gun users walked towards the sky blue house in a quick manner. Bayonetta kicked the door open with her foot then brought her guns pointing out. Rose followed Snake not wanting to be left behind. "It's time give it up!"
Rose thought something must have been serious since they both had their guns out. She kept following them until they reached the kitchen where an innocent elderly woman was with a casserole in her hands.
"Hands up, Granny! Drop the casserole or I'll shoot," Snake threatened darkly with an evil grin.
"WE'RE KILLING A GRANNY!?"
"We're not killing her, we're murdering her-"
"I KNEW IT! I'M CALLING THE COPS!" She took her phone out and dialed 911 as fast as she could. This made Bayonetta roll her eyes. "HELLO IS THIS 911!? I WOULD LIKE TO-" Snake grabbed her phone and shot it with one of his handguns.
"You didn't let me finish. We're murdering her casserole."
"Yes," the granny said. She her skin was wrinkled and pale. Her hair was short and white as snow. She was wearing a red long sleeve with blue jeans and red house slippers. She also had a pair of glasses on so her baby blue eyes could see. "Bayonetta and Snake help me with my house, so I offer them lunch when I can. They helped me out so much."
"So you're not…?" Rose looked over at Bayonetta with her mouth hanging open.
"You'd think I would kill an innocent granny? If anything, you're outta your mind." She chuckled before thanking the granny for making the food. The granny guided them to her dining room. There was a large round wooden table with four wooden chairs with red cushions on them. Four white plates lay on the table with a fork, a knife and a spoon. Pictures of the granny with Bayonetta and Snake hung on the walls in decorated frames. Rose sat next to Snake at the round table and waited patiently as she was about to get served some of the Granny's casserole.
After lunch, Bayonetta was sleeping soundly on a couch with a blanket draped over her body. The blanket had small kittens printed all over the blanket. The living room was nice and cozy. The Granny had her electric fireplace turned on along with some sweet jazz music played on low. The floors were made on dark wood and the ceilings were a beige color. There was a small coffee table in the middle of the living room with four white mugs placed on it. The Granny was sitting in her rocking chair near the fireplace.
Rose sat on one the available couches near Snake. "Thank you so much for having me over for lunch," Rose thanked. "I really love your home. It reminds me of the cartoons."
"Oh, that's so nice of you to say," the Granny said in her stereotypical grandma voice. "Back when I was your age, I had a boyfriend who was handsome, just like Snake."
"Aw shucks. You're embarrassing me, Granny," Snake said feeling flustered as he rubbed the back of his head.
"Stop pretending to feel flustered," Rose retorted. "Anyways, he's not my boyfriend… not yet." She whispered the last part to herself.
"What was that?"
"Nothing!"
"Snake, do you have a girlfriend or someone you like?"
"I'm afraid I have to say that things like a boyfriend and girlfriend get in the of things I do." He sighed as he stared at the ceiling. "I'm fine with just being friends, y'know?"
"Y-yeah. There goes my chances of getting super sexy Snake as my boyfriend. Maybe I can try to go for… Wow. We should get going now. I would hate to stay here longer than I should. I would also love to help you out anytime I can." Rose got up from the couch and went to Bayonetta who was sleeping peacefully on a different couch. Rose crouched down and started to poke her face softly with her pointer finger. "Baya, wake up…"
"Five more minutes… darling," she slurred back. Rose giggled softly not expecting that from Bayonetta.
Smash Mansion
It was around 5 o'clock. The place was lively as usual, but in the kitchen, it wasn't. Roy was trying to bake cookies for only God knows why. The place smelled like dirty rats and heavy metals. Roy wiped some sweat off his forehead and sighed. "Making cookies are harder than I thought."
Mewtwo happened to be passing by with his arms crossed, but stopped when he smelled the cookies Roy was baking. "Oh God! Not even Arceus would live from this stench! What are you baking, garbage?!"
"Um, no!? It's cookies. Cho-co-la-te chip!" Roy took a cookie from the many off the plate and handed one to Mewtwo. He examined Roy. Flour on half of his red hair, black stains on his right cheek, half burned apron, a missing oven mitt and slightly burned clothes.
"If I die, you're paying for my funeral." He took a bite without hesitation. He nodded his head as he was munching on the cookie. "It's slightly salty, but the sweetness knocks it out." He swallowed the portion in his mouth as he eyed the cookie in disbelief. "How can such a nasty smelling cookie taste like Mew's?"
"I'm guessing you like it," Roy asked.
Mewtwo nodded. "I'll take three on a small plate and a cup milk."
Roy started to get what the Pokemon wanted, curious if he was gonna eat it upstairs. He handed it to Mewtwo who had a smirk plastered on his face. "I'm giving these to dragon boy. He deserves a hard earned break. These heavy metal smelling cookies will cheer him up."
"What did Corrin do?"
"Just your average window breaking. Anyways, I'm off." And with that, Mewtwo disappeared from the kitchen. He reappeared in his room with the plate of cookies and the glass of cold milk. "Hey. I got you something to eat. You can get a break now."
Corrin was busy fixing a part on the window before stopping. "Thanks." Mewtwo placed the snack on his desk as Corrin went over there to get it. Mewtwo looked at the window and saw that it was fixed. He knew Corrin didn't know how to fix anything, but he sure did pull it off. The kid learned how to fix a window.
"Wow, these cookies taste great!"
"Roy made them just for you," Mewtwo joked.
"For real?"
"Yes. Don't tell him I said that or he'll get embarrassed."
"Understood." Corrin wolfed the cookies along with the milk in seconds. He looked satisfied when he finished his snack. "Thank you for the snack."
"Thank you for fixing my window."
Corrin left Mewtwo's room. "Now what can I do?" He looked around the hallway not sure what to do at this point. A brown medium sized dog showed up at Corrin's feet from nowhere. He had a small duck on its back. "Oh, hey guys? You want to play fetch or something?"
"No. I want to go for a walk, but I have no one to walk me," Mr. Peepers explained with a dull expression. He looked up at Corrin with puppy eyes. Corrin tried his best not to give in, but failed miserably.
"Fine, fine! I'll walk with you guys."
"Great. I already have a leash and collar on if it helps." Corrin saw the red leash on the ground, so he picked it up. "We're going to the park." The duo started to leave the 4th floor with Corrin. Once they were outside, that's when Mr. Peepers started to run like a mad dog, making Corrin get dragged on the ground at insane speeds.
"Slow down," he managed to spit out.
"Speed up? I think he said speed up!" Mr. Peepers gradually started to increase his running speed. People got scared as the dog kept running at full speed, still dragging Corrin on his face on the sidewalks. Two girls with short skirts were passing by and that's when Mr. Peepers got an idea. He purposely went to a full stop, making their skirts go up. They screamed as they tried to put their skirts down revealing their panties. The dog started to drool with a foxy grin.
Corrin screamed when he got lunged forward; still holding on the leash and crashed landed on the sidewalk far from Duck Hunt. Mr. Peepers walked to Corrin asking if he was okay. He got no response. Mr. Peepers just shrugged and decided to keep on running to the park, still dragging Corrin with him.
Back at Smash Mansion
Peach, Zelda, Samus and Lucina were in the living room talking about random things. It was then Zelda decided to bring up a topic about boys making them go dead silent. "Who do you like, Lucina," Zelda asked Lucina with a playful smirk.
"No one," she shrieked. She brought one of the couch cushions up to her face, covering it.
"Oohh, so you do like someone," Peach grinned. She kept nudging Lucina at her side, trying to make her give in by telling her the lucky Smasher. "C'mon! Tell us!"
"It's no one! I promise!"
Peach sighed in defeat. "Okay, fine. I believe you." Her blue eyes went straight to Samus who was sitting on a red couch with Zelda.
"Hell no," Samus snapped. "Last time I told you I was in love with Ike, you tried to play matchmaker!"
"Sorry… Do you like Bayonetta?"
"Huh!? You think I'm a lesbian?!"
"N-no? I was just taking a guess since you guys are sorta similar."
"How am I similar to some witch- only God knows how old she is- who can freeze time, shoot real bullets, and uses demons to finish off her opponents?"
Peach just blinked, not sure what to say after. Samus did have a point. "Nevermind. I take it back. There's no way in hell you're similar."
"Damn straight!"
"Guys, guys," Zelda said in a mellow tone. "Just calm down."
"I'm pretty sure you like Link," Samus brought up randomly to Zelda. This caused Zelda to blush like mad.
"Me?! In love with Link?! Not happening! I like someone else! Besides, I overheard Link saying he had his eyes on a special princess…"
"That is?"
"None other than Princess-" She rudely interrupted when she heard a loud conversation that consisted of guys coming from upstairs.
"I'm telling you I saw Cloud at someone outdoor cafe wearing nice clothes with some extremely beautiful chick with a pair of double Ds," Roy exclaimed.
"Yeah right," Ike said, not impressed by this. "If anyone Cloud should be out with, it should be a guy. He never hangs out with girls for some reason."
"Maybe he doesn't like any girls here. Too bad since he's a real pretty boy, just like Marth."
"Y'know I'm right here," Marth said.
"About that movie," Link brought up with delight.
"I thought we were going to the mall," Robin frowned.
"We can just go go-karting or something," Pit said.
They kept on talking very loudly while going to the living room. Samus, Zelda and Peach had annoyed looks on their faces. Lucina didn't know how to act about the situation, so she just decided to watch. "Um, excuse me," Peach said. "We were here first."
"We were here second," Roy said back.
"So leave then."
"This isn't your house, Peach," Marth said. Peach didn't respond to Marth. She just sat there quietly with a small blush on her face. "OOOHHH!"s escaped from Zelda and Samus as they surrounded Peach, playfully pushing her around.
"Guys, stop," Peach groaned.
"Wow, Peach. I didn't expect you had a thing for fancypants," Samus said playfully. "Anyways, you guys were talking about the mall or something?"
"Yeah," Ike said. "We're still trying to decide where to go."
"What about an amusement park," Lucina suggested, causing everyone to give her their attention. Lucina hid behind her cushion. "Please don't stare at me like that."
"That's a great idea," Link said. "We can go tomorrow at twelve!"
The doorbell rang all of a sudden and Marth went to get it. He opened the door and saw Corrin with the Dunk Hunt Duo. Corrin's face was wrapped in white bandages, so he appeared to look like a mummy. His head was wrapped up messily as well. He hands were wrapped along with his feet. Mr. Peepers looked alive and well as if he could go for another run. "What happe-" Corrin placed his hand on Marth's mouth, stopping him from completing his sentence.
"Don't ask," he muttered.
"That was really fun, Corrin," Mr. Peepers said.
"That's the last time I ever do something that involves running with them. Damn that Dakku Hunto," Corrin thought darkly. He dropped the red leash at the front door and stumbled inside the house like a person who drank a bit too much. Roy, Link and Ike approached Corrin with surprised faces.
"Woah, Corrin! How did ya manage to get hurt so much," they asked.
Corrin went right passed them and stumbled upstairs with his wobbly jelly legs.
"I've never seen Corrin so mad in my life," Zelda said in awe. "I don't think I ever want to see that again."
"Agreed," everyone agreed.
"I guess that settles it," Pit said. "We're going to the amusement park!"
Marth happened to be at the door still when he saw Rose appear in sight with Bayonetta and Snake. "Hello, Rose," Marth greeted with a warm smile.
"Good day to you as well, Marth," Rose said back with a crooked smile. "I ate at Grandmother's house, today."
Marth sweatdropped, not sure what that meant. "I don't know what you're talking about, but you would like to come with me to the amusement park?"
Her eyes widened in surprise. "Huh? You're willing to take a girl like me out on a date?" Small little pink hearts started rise above her head. "I would really love that!"
"Great, then it's settled. Meet me at the living room tomorrow at twelve P.M.. We're gonna have lots of fun tomorrow." He walked away from her, leaving Rose's heart melted completely.
"He's such a romantic. My first day here and he's wanting to take me out on a date?! I better get a dress tomorrow!"
"Great for you, kiddo," Bayonetta congratulated. "How old are you anyways?"
"I'm so excited! What am I doing?! I better get my beauty sleep. I'm 18!"
Bayonetta gave her a weird look. "18? I thought you were… 16. You're short for your height. What are you, five six?"
"Says the witch who looks like she's 30," Rose countered.
"Toché."
