Author's Note:
You were expecting a chapter centered around Ultimate...BUT IT WAS ME, DIO! Yeah, that joke sucked...
Not sure if I said this in a previous author's note, but I said I would be doing an Ultimate-centric chapter...and unfortunately, that won't be happening. Why? Two reasons - one, I had took another long break, and didn't feel like writing a chapter of such a big magnitude once said break was over. And two, writing the previous chapter nearly took the fight out of me. So if you were expecting an Ultimate chapter...I'm very sorry for the change in plans.
However, to make up for it in some way, I've made a chapter introducing some new characters to the story - characters that would've appeared regardless in the Ultimate chapter, had I written it. I imagined it would be an "easier" chapter to write, with the little amount of time I had. These characters are guys and gals that are either a part of someone's Final Smash, or serve as a palette swap of a character. I had meant to add a few of those characters to the story earlier this year, so this is a good way to make up for it.
Because I didn't answer any reviews in the last chapter, I have a lot of reviews to respond to today...
"Has Chrom fully grown his hair back yet? Will Cody and Jessica from Final Fight reconcile if they show up? (Since Cody is now mayor of Metro City as of Street Fighter V) a wrestling chapter with Incineroar, King from Tekken, Zangief, Rainbow Mika, and Hugo from Street Fighter? And finally, if a Tales character is confirmed for DLC do you hope it will be Lloyd Irving or Velvet Crowe?"
"Not yet, but he will. Cody and Jessica will reconcile. Because I love wrestling, I'm totally down with doing a wrestling chapter with those characters you've mentioned. And if a Tales character is confirmed for DLC, it'll be either Lloyd (who already had a Mii costume) or Yuri Lowell (a very popular Tales protagonist). Our anonymous request has another request:
"Is Emmeryn gonna knock some sense into Chrom when she shows up? Will Lilith ever get Dark Pit to like her? Will Cranky ever get his date with Pauline? Will Wrinkly Kong's ghost show up and ruin Cranky's date? A meeting of the Persona characters? And finally, how soon can we see other Castlevania characters showing up?"
Yes she will. Won't say, but Lilith may appear again. Cranky Kong might score a date with Pauline, and Wrinkly Kong ruining the date would be jokes. A Persona meeting is on the table. And new Castlevania characters will debut in the next year. A review, from Waddle-Dedede:
"Could we see Susie from Kirby:Planet Robobot"
She's a pretty endearing character, wouldn't mind adding her to the story. Up next is Walter Hitchcock:
"Who do you think will be the next four DLC?
Mine are:
1. Sora (Kingdom Hearts)
2. Dante (Devil May Cry)
3. Travis Touchdown (No More Heroes)
4. Leon Kennedy (Resident Evil) or Amaterasu (Okami)"
Nice list! Personally, I think Sora, Crash, Banjo-Kazooie, and Heihachi will be the next DLC. If Sora doesn't make it, due to Disney copyright, then someone from Dragon Quest will. Next in line is El Pollo Campero:
"Idea: Simon makes the Smashers perform the Nativity scene"
Smashers doing the Nativity scene? Um...might be too late for that. Anon has mentioned something that I must address:
"The Phantom Thieves were OoC here, and it really bothers me."
I had limited the Phantom Thieves as much as I could in the previous chapter, so they wouldn't act OOC again. I'm not that knowledgeable of the Phantom Thieves' personalities, save for a few characters, so I'll do my best to remedy this issue and avoid encountering it in the future. On to SperQuieMoskov:
"1. A Gender-swap incident or some residents visit a gender-swapped version of their world
2. Hyperdimension Neptunia episode
3. An episode saying thank you to the three years of being a top fanfic in the site
4. Master Hand makes a college entrance exam-style of test to t but the arc focuses on highly requested characterers (ex. Shantae, Banjo-Kazooie, etc.) and whoever passes gets to be a resident"
1. I'm not that keen with gender-swapping, to be honest. I'm still having a hard time understanding the whole Bowsette appeal. That is considered gender-swapping, right?
2. No idea what Hyperdimension Neptunia is all about, but I might acknowledge that series one way or another.
3. A thank-you episode...huh, never thought of that. Not sure if I would do that or not.
4. That would be a good tactic to introduce some fan favorites, but would I do it? Eh...
GreaterDoomerUKI has left behind two requests for me:
"Take a vacation. You deserve it."
I did take a vacation...well, from writing, that is. I'm too cheap to afford an actual vacation, sadly. Moving on:
"I've been thinking. You know like in video games there are glitches or whatever right. You could make a chapter about that"
A chapter about glitches...hmm. Not sure how that'll turn out. Last up for today is SplatQuenKimmy:
"1. Bunch of fictional characters riot at Smash Mansion over not receiving invites
2. Philippines focused-episode"
1. What kind of fictional characters are we talking about here?
2. A Philippines-focused episode sounds...random, but doable given the context and scenario.
Episode 158: Consultation
Sonic: What's happening, you guys? It's me again, ya boy Sonic the Hedgehog, and I'm taking control of the documentary once again...well, sort of. Got some great news for you guys - so over the week, Master Hand was craving to add new dudes to the mansion, mainly because he had a couple of empty rooms he wanted to fill up. Perfectly understandable.
With Master Hand gone away, having taken a visit to Crazy Hand's place...for reasons unknown, I decided to kick back, and get to know the newcomers a little better, since they've only been here for like a day or two. I've been conducting sit-down interviews, if you will, with the newbies in Master Hand's room, and kept doing them until I got to speak with everyone. Or at least until Master Hand returned from his trip. He wouldn't like it if he saw someone in his room; he always has his door locked. Thanks Isabelle, for letting me inside - maybe you can take the fall for me!
So, the first person I got to speak with was Princess Zelda...now I know what you're thinking: "But Sonic, Zelda is already at the mansion!" While that may be true, there was another Zelda incarnation joining us - and it wasn't the one from Champion Link's timeline. Gotta protect those eyebrows, you know what I'm sayin'? Needless to say, our chat...went pretty well, I'll say.
Sonic sat alone at a table in Master Hand's room, smiling with his hands together as he waited for a certain someone to enter the room. That someone was a princess - one with long blondish hair, and a pink princess gown.
"Is this the place?" the princess asked Sonic, who nodded his head with a smile. The hedgehog found the princess to be very beautiful beyond words, but had to suppress his thoughts - wouldn't want to make Amy mad or jealous.
"This is indeed the place, now come over here and have a seat!" replied Sonic, as the princess closed the door and took a seat at the table, seated across from Sonic. "I'm Sonic, Sonic the Hedgehog! But someone probably told you that already. So this is how it's gonna go - I'm gonna ask you five questions, just so we could know each other better, and then I'll pass on the info to Master Hand, just in case he needs it. Which he will. Capiche?"
"Sounds like a fair deal! I've hardly had any time to get adjusted to life at the mansion, but the two Links and that Zelda have been showing me the ropes. It's nothing like living in Hyrule Castle, I know."
"Tell me about it...that Hyrule Castle must be an absolute dump. Might be the most overrated building in existence." The princess frowned deeply when she heard that. "Now, first things first...what name do you go by?"
"Master Hand recommended that I go by Researcher Zelda, just so others could differentiate me from the other Zelda." Researcher Zelda sounded like a pretty fitting moniker, for the princess. "It was really the only name Master Hand could come up with..."
"Researcher Zelda, that's what we'll call you from now on!" Sonic wrote down Researcher Zelda's name on a piece of paper, before continuing on. "Second question: how likely are you to fall in love with Champion Link?"
"Excuse me? Is that an honest question? What possibly makes you believe I'd ever fall in love with him? Why, I've never had any romantic affections towards the Link from my time period!" Hearing this made Sonic gasp, as the hedgehog clutched his pearls.
"You don't even like the Link from your time period?! Wow, why to make Hylia proud! Talk about ruining a longstanding tradition."
"I wouldn't say it's a tradition...a princess like myself can like men who aren't included in the Triforce prophecy. I don't have to limit myself to only liking Link, you know - I have to keep my options varied."
"So does that mean you're really into Goron people, or some other race?" asked Sonic, as Researcher Zelda shook her head in disgust; Sonic was really starting to get on her nerves. Welcome to the club, Researcher Zelda...
"No, I only like Hylian men. Just not Link. Let me be clear...I. AM NOT. IN LOVE. WITH LINK. Or any Link incarnation, for that matter. Let's just leave it at that."
"Fine then, have it your way...now for the last question: if you were forced by Ganondorf or some other evil person to kiss any Link, on the lips, would you do it, Especially if it was for the fate of Hyrule?" Refusing to answer, Researcher Zelda angrily stood up, as she glared down Sonic.
"...nice speaking with you, Sonic the Hedgehog," the princess made her last remark, before storming out of the room. As Researcher Zelda slammed the door, Sonic wrote down some notes, convinced by the chit chat he had with the princess.
Sonic: Hoo boy, that Researcher Zelda was a hoot! I know she's got a thing for Champion Link - she just doesn't want to make the Link she knows more personally to be mad. Everyone knows how ugly it can get when two guys fight over a girl - Knuckles and Shadow both know that feeling pretty well. It's not a good feeling. After I spoke with Zelda...Researcher Zelda, I mean, I spoke with another denizen of Hyrule...and I gotta say, he looked pretty cool!
Sonic was chilling out the table, eating a chili dog, when a Gerudo entered the room. It was Ganondorf, but a different kind of Ganondorf...this one was more sleek and slim, and had less bulk than the other Ganondorf. Not to mention he had a pointier nose.
"Sonic the Hedgehog, I'm here...it is I, Gerudo Ganondorf!" the Gerudo announced; we'll just call him Gerudo Ganon, for short. Sonic looked up and saw Gerudo Ganon, nearly choking on his chili dog.
"Welcome, welcome, and welcome!" greeted Sonic, after swallowing the rest of his chili dog without choking. "Please take a seat, we have a lot to discuss!" So Gerudo Ganon took his seat at the table, and folded his arms.
"Let me tell ya...it feels great to be in the company of another Ganon. Two heads are better than one, I'll say. Just imagine if we had the boar version of Ganon on our side, we'd be unstoppable! We'd be..."
"Okay dude, let's not get ahead of ourselves..." Gerudo Ganon calmed himself down, sitting back in his chair. "I'm gonna ask you a few questions, and then you leave and go back to world domination or whatever you were doing beforehand. First question! Who's better - you, or the other Ganondorf?"
"Obviously me - I have muscles, and a bigger nose, and arguably a better Sword of Sages. The one the other Ganondorf has is a cheap knockoff, in my eyes. I can see why he hardly fights with that thing."
"Believe me, I oftentimes forget he still has that blade! Next question: who would win in a fight, you or Zant?" What a very thought-provoking question...made Gerudo Ganon think long and hard, as he scratched his chin in deep thought.
"Zant does have a lot of magical powers...which he didn't really have until meeting with Ganondorf. So if I were to eliminate the other Ganondorf, I could strip Zant of all of his powers, and win easily!"
"Nice strategy, I would do the same thing too!" Yeah, like you even have a remote chance at landing a single hit on Zant, Sonic. "Now, who would win in a fight...you, or Bowser? That's a question worth debating over at a barbershop."
"I'd beg to differ...but if you must know, I'd win handily with my sword. My Sword of Sages could pierce through Bowser's chest, impaling his heart and killing him for good. As for the other Ganondorf, he'd only get a measly scratch with that lousy sword of his."
"You know, for a guy that wants to work with a fellow Ganon, you're sure talking a whole lot of crap about your fellow incarnation...not that I actually mind. Fourth question: who would win, you or King Dedede?"
"What kind of pointless question is that?! I would win, obviously! King Dedede isn't even evil, he's just some stupid greedy penguin with obesity issues! He practically ate my dinner last night, while I was just washing my hands!"
"Hand sanitizer bro, should've used that instead. It can save you a lot of trouble. It can even save lives. Got proof if it, too. Final question: who would win in a no holds barred, no holding back, anything goes fight...you, or the other Ganondorf?"
Gerudo Ganon looked at Sonic like he was crazy, before erupting into a laughing fit of the ages. Sonic would laugh along with Gerudo Ganon, as the two found themselves laughing hysterically. Still laughing, Gerudo Ganon and Sonic both stood up simultaneously, shaking each other's hands.
"Good talk, Sonic the Hedgehog, good talk," a smiling Gerudo Ganon said to Sonic, as he wiped away a tear from his eye.
Outside Master Hand's room, Ganondorf was standing next to the doorway, with his arms folded. One might assume that the demon lord had heard everything said inside the room, but he wasn't frowning in the slightest.
"Hey Ganon, you wanna play a game of Monopoly with Kirby and I?" Pit asked Ganondorf, who looked down and saw Kirby standing next to Pit, holding a Monopoly game board. It was Mario-themed. "Promise we'll play fair!"
"Not interested, I'm a little busy at the moment," replied Ganondorf, as Pit and Kirby were left confused. Didn't seem like Ganondorf wasn't doing much. "Go bother someone else to play with you."
"You're busy doing nothing? I mean, if that's what you wanna do to spend the rest of your day, then so be it. I'm not judging you." Pit and Kirby walked away, as Ganondorf let out a sigh. Talk about dodging a bullet.
Kirby: Playing Monopoly with Pit never ends well, as we routinely end the game earlier than usual. Pit consistently runs out of money before I can even make it around the game board!
"It was nice speaking with you, Sonic!" Gerudo Ganon called out to the hedgehog, as he left Master Hand's room and shut the door. Upon exiting, he was greeted by Ganondorf, a fellow incarnate of Demise.
"Well how did it go, did everything go according to plan?" Ganondorf asked Gerudo Ganon, needing to know every little necessary detail. "Had Sonic hooked the whole time, didn't you?"
"He thinks that we're enemies, and that I hate your guts...he's so gullible!" Both Ganons were laughing to themselves, as Diddy Kong walked by, giving the Ganons inquisitive looks, and ran away out of fear.
"See, told you he'd eat up everything you say! Just wait until he sees us working together, he wouldn't even know what to say!"
Sonic: Is it just me, or is Gerudo Ganondorf better than the Ganondorf we all know and love? He's got a big, cool-looking sword like Cloud's, and he's really good at self-advertising, too! And he doesn't have girly locks on the back of his head, that accounts for A LOT. Gerudo Ganondorf checks off a lot of boxes the old Ganondorf doesn't. Quite sad, when you think about it.
This may or may not come off as a surprise, but the rest of Star Wolf was invited to join the mansion, since we got the entire Star Fox squad living under one roof. Wolf must be pretty hyped to have his boys with him. Not everyone could make it - Panther Caroso was supposedly "too busy" romancing ladies in outer space to settle down at the mansion. Constant disappointment must be his best friend, or his lover. Either way, Master Hand hasn't lost his breath over Caroso.
Speaking of Star Wolf, Wolf and his three buddies - Leon Powalski, Pigma Dengar, and Andrew Oikonny - were outside the mansion, spying on Link. The Hylian was at a picnic table, crafting some kind of replica of Hyrule Castle, and he was using popsicle sticks to get the job done.
"Keep calm, Link, and the finished product will come sooner than you know it..." a calm Link said to himself, as he was gluing a popsicle stick to his ongoing creation. He would be interrupted, however, when a spitball was fired on his arm. "WHO KEEPS FIRING SPITBALLS AT ME?!" the Hylian snapped.
"Link can you shut up already, some people are trying to rest here," Cloud called out, as the swordsman was resting in the hammock. Link growled, as he wiped the spitball off his arm with disgust.
"How can one possibly rest, when I'm being pelted by spitballs over here?" Another spitball was fired at Link, this one nailing the Hylian in the eye. Link yelped in pain and clutched his eye, as Leon came over and knocked Link's Hyrule Castle popsicle creation down with his tail.
"Ha ha ha...sucker," chuckled Leon, as the chameleon hurried back up the three where Star Wolf was hiding in. Once Link recovered, he took a glance at his popsicle creation...and saw his castle crumbled, dozens of popsicle sticks lying on the picnic table.
"NO, MY CREATION, IT'S RUINED!" the Hylian cried, as he fell down to his knees. Cloud smirked, as he turned over in the hammock and continued to rest. Meanwhile, a loud sound was coming from up the tree Star Wolf was hiding in...it came from Leon's watch.
"Sorry boys, got a meeting to attend," Leon said to his pals, as he climbed down the tree. "Apparently Sonic wants to chat with me, to 'know me better'. I should be back soon, hopefully..."
Leon met with Sonic in Master Hand's room, as the chameleon's eyes were moving around all over the place, looking at every nook and cranny within the room. Chameleon eyes can do that, from time to time.
"Can you please cut it out with the whole eye thing?" pleaded Sonic, having to take several inches back from Leon just for good measure. "It's creeping me out..."
"I'm not giving you nightmares, am I?" asked Leon, before stopping the whole eye thing altogether. "I don't see what the problem is...maybe you're just a fragile, little hedgehog!"
"Watch it buddy, only my girlfriend Amy Rose is allowed to call me that! And I told her strictly not to call me that for as long as she lives! Let's just get back on track...so Leon, what kind of stuff are you into?"
"I love flowers and rainbows..." Leon sighed happily, holding his hands to his face, as he pictured himself in a meadow ripe with flowers with rainbows littering the sky. "...smelling flowers and seeing rainbows, those are my two favorite things."
"A stir-crazy chameleon who likes flowers and rainbows. Man, I think I've heard it all today. Moving on...have you had any mixed feelings about living with Falco, and the rest of the Star Fox crew?"
Leon didn't answer, for he was still fantasying over flowers and rainbows. Annoyed, Sonic snapped his fingers in front of the chameleon, snapping him out of his trance and bringing him to his senses.
"What, did you say something about Falco?" inquired Leon; Falco was undoubtedly the only thing he heard while he was in his trance. He and Falco were bitter rivals, like Fox and Wolf. "Yes, yes, I would love to kill him one day, but Master Hand forbids me from killing anyone."
"While we're on the topic about Falco, did you know that Falco has a girlfriend, named Katt Monroe?" Clearly Leon did not know this, as he looked at Sonic crazily with bugged out eyes. "They started dating earlier, this year, and I almost stopped them in a way. Looking back on it, I was in the wrong..."
"What do you mean, you were in the wrong? You should've stopped Falco, while you had the chance! Now I have to find myself a love interest, just to even up the score with Falco...nice going, hedgehog!"
"Sorry man, I didn't know! You should just stick to flowers and rainbows, that's the only love you'll ever find...so since you're a supposed serial killer and all, I must ask...in total, how many people did you kill?"
"How many did I kill? Let me think..." Leon mused over his body count, tapping his chin in thought. "...I have to think the specific names of the people I've slain, it'll help joggle my memory quicker." Sonic couldn't afford to wait that long, as the hedgehog slammed his face unto the table and screamed in fury.
Never the one to give up on anything, Link resumed working on his Hyrule Castle creation, despite having to start from scratch thanks to Leon. Zelda and Researcher Zelda offered to help out the Hylian, not wanting to see Link feel distressed again.
"Crap, I ran out of glue," frowned Link, when he realized his bottle of glue was empty. The Hylian tossed the bottle on the picnic table, as he got up and left. "I'll be right back ladies - guard the castle with your lives!"
Zelda: It was only a matter of time until I had a Zelda incarnation to consider my friend - one that gets to stay with you and all. If Link gets his own buddy, then I deserve one too...And maybe, Ganondorf, I suppose. One Ganon's enough already...
"...is he always this unprepared?" Researcher Zelda asked Zelda, as Star Wolf was spying on the two princesses from up above their tree. "One bottle of glue isn't enough to put together this...whatever this is."
"Believe me, the plumber in that house over there has Link beat," replied Zelda, throwing some shade at Mario. Impa would be proud. A few moments later, Link returned to the premises, bringing Mario with him.
"What do you need-a the glue for again?" asked Mario, holding two bottles of glue in his hands. Link pointed at the picnic table, at his popsicle creation. "I'm-a confused, why are you showing me a bunch-a of popsicles?"
"Because I'm using those popsicles to create a replica of Hyrule Castle," explained Link, as Mario looked at the Hylian funny, before looking at the popsicles and how they were assembled. "Sure it's a little rough around the edges, but someone had to ruin it while I was in pain..."
"Don't give Link the glue Mario, it's not worth it," Cloud called out to the plumber, seeing him standing with Link. "It'll only make Link weirder." Knowing Mario wouldn't listen to him, Cloud gave up, as the swordsman sighed and went back to resting in the hammock.
"Where in blazes is that Leon, he should be back by now!" frowned Wolf, on the lookout for Leon - who scurried back up the tree moments later, undetected by Link and company. "What where you and Sonic even doing?"
"My apologies, friends - Sonic asked me for a hit list of people I've killed," said Leon, letting his friends how sorry he was. "Frankly, I could only come up with two or three people. Oh, and Pigma...Sonic wants to have a word with you."
"I-I'm not in trouble, am I?" stammered Pigma, as Wolf facepalmed in disgust. Not because of how Pigma was acting - but because Sonic was derailing his fun.
Pigma met with Sonic in Master Hand's room, and the pig was feeling all sorts of nervous. A part of him wished Sonic had saved a chili dog just for him, but Sonic wasn't exactly known for being charitable with certain folk.
"Are you gonna give me some chili dogs after this is over with?" Pigma kindly asked Sonic, who slapped the pig silly. Pigma winced in pain, holding his face. "Okay, can I just get a regular hot dog instead?"
"Only I ask the questions around here, mister!" stated Sonic, sitting back down in his seat. He already knew what he was going up against. "Be honest - how much did you eat today? I want everything, from breakfast to lunch!"
"Uh...I had some scrambled eggs, a few bagels, some waffles, some pancakes, a bowl of oatmeal, several bowls of cereal, French toast, pizza, two cheeseburgers, chocolate chip cookies, potato chips, and microwave popcorn. With syrup on the side."
Pigma ratted off this list of things he ate like a pro, as Sonic was left floored - shocked with his mouth agape. The hedgehog could literally fall back unto the floor, if he wanted to.
Pigma: I left some things off of my list...didn't want Sonic to think I'm a big fatty. Which I am already, hehe...
"Woah Nelly, you might have King Dedede and Wario beat!" remarked Sonic, as he wrote down the items Pigma ate on a sheet of paper. "Who would win in a food-eating contest - you, Dedede, or Wario?"
"Depends on what I have to eat," replied Pigma, who hoped to win an eating contest one day. He'd have to best the inaugural champion at the Smash Mansion, Louie. "Burgers and chicken, I'd scarf that stuff down in a heartbeat. But ribs and pulled pork...yeah, you could imagine why I wouldn't eat those."
"It's because it'll make you ten times fatter, doesn't it?" asked Sonic, as Pigma stared at the hedgehog wondering why he didn't use his head. But eventually, Sonic realized a few seconds later. "Oh yeah, you're a pig, that's right..."
"Sucks man, it truly does...watching my friends eat at the finest barbecues in Corneria, while I have to wait outside and suffer. It's like watching being a human, and watching your human buddies get devoured by a dragon - you wanna hop in on the fun, but you know it's against your moral compass.
"Okay bro, weird analogy...this next question might sting just a little. On record, how many times did you get kicked out of Star Wolf?" This was a personal question for Pigma, who has been backstabbed in his life more times than he could remember.
"A lot...got kicked out for chasing money, and chasing babes. But mainly for chasing money. I've never had a chance with a single woman, no matter how close I got to Krystal...but Wolf always lets me back in the crew, with open arms."
"Sounds like Wolf gives you too many second chances...Wolf must really be a great leader, huh?" Pigma nodded his head, but he still had one thing on his mind...
"Yeah, he's a good leader, but I gotta ask one question, before I leave...can I get one chili dog? Please?" Not wishing to be bothered again, Sonic grumbled as he reached underneath the table and pulled out a chili dog. Pigma happily giggled like a little kid.
"Don't tell anyone I ever did this..." warned Sonic as he gave the chili dog to Pigma, who squealed like a happy...well, pig, and ran out of the room.
Link resumed reworking his Hyrule Castle creation, with Mario providing the Hylian and the two Zeldas some glue to put the popsicle sticks together. Star Wolf continued to spy on Link from the tree, with Andrew tossing a rock in his hand.
"You honestly believe that one rock will bring the whole castle down?" Wolf questioned Andrew, who was confident in his throwing ability. "All that rock will ever do is knock the glue off. And what if you hit someone on the head?"
"Wolf, Wolf, Wolf...you underestimate me too much," smirked Andrew, as he shook his head. He had his eyes lined up with Link's castle creation, as he dialed in and readied his throw. "Don't worry about it - those popsicle sticks will be coming down like the fall of Rome!"
"I hope so..." Wolf turned away, as Andrew was about to throw the rock. "Leon, you can serve as my eyes. Let me know if Andrew..."
Suddenly a loud belch was heard nearby, alarming Star Wolf. Out of instinct, Andrew tossed his rock, and instead of nailing Link's castle, the monkey instead struck Mario in the head by accident.
"Owie!" Mario winced in pain, clutching his head, as Cappy also felt a little pain. Mario frowned, as he looked up and saw Star Wolf, up in the tree. "Wolf, what the heck-a was that for, man?"
"I didn't do it, it was his doing!" Wolf defended himself, as he accusingly pointed at Andrew. The monkey looked at his leader, in complete disbelief that he would out him like that. Must not know Wolf that well.
"Nice-a try Wolf, but I'm not buying that-a excuse. Get your scrawny butt-a over here!" Mario ran towards the tree, and Wolf screamed and jumped off the tree as Mario chased after him. Andrew and Leon watched their leader getting chased, finding it quite amusing.
Link: That Wolf, trying to ruin my beloved creation...don't think I didn't know what that dumb canine was trying to pull. Not my fault Wolf can't have any appreciation for the arts.
"Not gonna lie, that belch nearly scared the pants off of me..." Leon said to Andrew, as he looked over on the tree...and saw Pigma, having returned to the premises, eating the chili dog Sonic had given him. "...where did you get that chili dog, Pigma?"
"Oh, uh, I found it in the microwave in the kitchen," Pigma responded rather quickly, scarfing down the rest of his chili dog. Leon and Andrew were both giving the pig very inquisitive looks. "Totally not like Sonic gave it me or anything."
"I take it I'm next to speak with Sonic, am I?" asked Andrew, who let out a deep sigh as he climbed down the tree. "This better only be two minutes or less..."
Andrew met with Sonic in Master Hand's room, and the monkey had his feet resting on the table while Sonic ate another chili dog. Letting Sonic know that he wanted this meeting to be done with, pronto.
"I'ma start things off by asking you about your family," stated Sonic, after he was finished eating his chili dog. "What is your honest opinion of your dad, Andross? You can take as long as you..."'
"Andross is NOT my dad...he's my uncle," clarified Andrew, triggered that Sonic didn't know this already. Even the most faithful Star Fox fan knew what Andrew's relationship was to Andross. "I am Andross' nephew, and the heir to his throne."
"But wouldn't it make more sense for Andross to be your dad, considering he's giving the keys of the throne to you? Sounds to me like you don't even like your own biological dad! What a shame!"
"Whoever said that I didn't like my dad?" Andrew raised his voice, as he angered grew tenfold. Sonic, seeing how furious Andrew was, didn't wish to enrage the monkey further. "Quit it out with your stupid assumptions!"
"Okay, I'll stop, don't hurt me bro!" Following Sonic's plea, Andrew released all the anger built inside of him, as Sonic continued the meeting. "Next question: from a scale from one to ten, how excited are you about ruling the empire of...whatever Andross is ruling over."
"Andross' empire doesn't have a name, to be honest. But to answer your question, I'd say I'm pretty excited to rule over the empire, as I've had some experience ruling an empire before. Although it was more of reviving an empire than anything, really."
"Do you honestly expect people to take you seriously as a ruler?" This question was slightly offensive to Andrew, who has always found it hard to find respect. Something he and Team Rocket could bond over.
"Well I do tend to get overlooked, from time to time...and everyone just loves to call me an Andross wannabe...but I do have Andross' pedigree, so that should be enough to silence a few naysayers. Star Fox included."
"Final question, Mr. Oikonny...are you positive Andross isn't your dad? Does he not have the same last name as you do? Or did he legally change it, so he wouldn't have to suffer being associated with a lame primate like yourself?"
Having just about enough of Sonic and his questions, Andrew frowned as he got up from his seat and stormed out of the room, giving Sonic one last glare before making his exit. What a waste of time that was, Andrew probably thought.
"Yup...Andross is definitely his dad," remarked Sonic, jotting this bit of information down on his piece of paper.
Sonic: Really learned a lot about Wolf's space mates today...Leon likes flowers and rainbows, Pigma got kicked out of Star Wolf constantly for chasing that green, and Andrew has major daddy issues. Wolf sure knows how to find an eclectic cast of interesting characters, to be in his mercenary group. The next person I interviewed today was Chrom's girlfriend, Raven, but as it turns out, I was in for a bit of a surprise...
Up in the Star Records room, Chrom was chilling out with Fox and Falco, talking about general stuff and whatnot. And also the Christmas concert that was last week.
"I can't tell you how much you killed it out there, Chrom," Fox said to the prince, having been blown away by Chrom's performance. "You really saved that concert from being a dud. The Phantom Thieves should be thanking you!"
"No Fox, they should be thanking Ashley for having that singing potion," remarked Chrom, who was wearing a knit cap on his head to conceal the hair he had shaven off by accident, thanks to King Boo. "She was the lifesaver, not me - Ashley single-handedly made Roy's group look legit." No way was Chrom gonna say that Straight Fiyah out loud.
"So Chrom, about that hair you had shaven off..." said Falco, quickly changing the subject; Chrom didn't want to discuss his hair, it has become a very sensitive topic for him. "...what are you gonna do to grow it back?"
"Meta Knight recommended to me a hair gel that can make my hair grow faster. Purchased it from NME Enterprises, should be coming in the mail today. While my hair grows back, I should look into seeking revenge on King Boo, for causing me to..."
"What did King Boo even do?" questioned Fox, wondering why Chrom was so obsessed with revenge. "All he ever did was get video footage of him scaring Luigi. You wanted to humiliate Rex in front of everyone else!"
"While that may be true, King Boo essentially got in my way, and ruined my master plan. Rex will be left alone, but King Boo...I've got a major bone to pick with him." The doorbell suddenly sounded, able to heard up on the fifth floor. "That must be my hair gel!"
Hopping on an elevator, Chrom hurried down to the first floor and to the foyer, where he saw Meta Knight closing the front door. In the Star Warrior's hands was a small box, from NME Enterprises.
"My hair gel, is it inside that box?" Chrom asked Meta Knight, making haste as he walked over to him. Meta Knight had never seen Chrom move that fast before; the prince was dead serious about restoring his hair.
"It should be the hair gel, let me check to make sure..." replied Meta Knight, opening the box and taking out the item inside...which was a bottle of perfume. Both Chrom and Meta Knight were perplexed. "You ordered perfume, Chrom?"
"Huh...?" Chrom looked at the bottle of perfume all funnily, as he took it out of Meta Knight's hand. "...could the hair gel possibly be disguised as perfume?"
"Chrom, what on earth are you and Meta Knight doing with my beauty products?" a certain silverette questioned, as Raven appeared in the foyer, storming over to Chrom and Meta Knight. She took the perfume from Chrom, and the box from Meta Knight. "Has anyone ever taught you not to touch a lady's stuff?"
"You ordered something from NME Enterprises too, Raven?" Meta Knight asked the woman, who gave the Star Warrior a confused stare. "And here I thought NME was only interested in selling men's products!"
"Whoever said I did that? I just got this perfume and all my other beauty stuff online. Clearly someone doesn't know how to read box labels..." Having shade thrown at him, Meta Knight looked at the label on the box, and realized his mistake.
"I see it now, this box was delivered from a beauty company...stupid small letters hampering my reading ability. It's like businesses expect everyone to use a magnifying glass to read this crap."
"Now if you excuse me, I have to put these items away...apparently I have a meeting with Sonic in Master Hand's room." Raven walked away, and interestingly enough, she had a ring on her finger...
Once she put her belongings away, Raven went to Master Hand's room, to speak with Sonic. Before the meeting began, Sonic took a close look at Raven's right hand, spotting the ring on the ring finger.
"Let's begin by a very important question..." Sonic kicked things off, by pointing at the ring. "...who did you secretly get married to, and how does Chrom not know about your secret husband?" Raven couldn't help but laugh at Sonic's question.
"Guess Master Hand never told you, didn't he?" asked Raven, as Sonic held his breath for what Raven would say next. "Chrom and I, er...we kinda eloped without telling anyone."
Sonic was left in shock by this revelation, so shocked that his eyes bulged and he nearly fell out of his chair. Thankfully he was able to recover quickly, before he made the fall. While shocked, Sonic at the same time felt pretty salty.
"You mean to tell me you and Chrom had a secret wedding, and you never invited ME?!" questioned Sonic, looking away and folding his arms in disgust. "And you never told me either...I'm so hurt, it's not even funny."
"Thought you might've gotten a clue, after I've lived at the mansion for THREE DAYS," stated Raven, indicating that she got to live at the mansion longer than the other newcomers. "Also, how did anyone not tell you we eloped? Knowing Master Hand, he'd tell that to everyone!"
"It's just a conspiracy, that's all...Master Hand secretly hates me and is too afraid to admit. But was it only you and Chrom at this wedding, was anyone else in attendance, anyone at all?"
"Just Lucina and a few friends from the war. Robin would've been present if Morgan and Marc weren't in attendance, so he had to livestream the wedding from Futaba's laptop, with Lakitu providing the footage. Hate that it had to come to that..."
Raven: Master Hand was super antsy about Chrom and I finally tying the knot, since he has always wanted me to be a part of the mansion. Evidently he couldn't wait much longer, which is why he bought a wedding ring for Chrom, and practically forced him to propose to me. (Lucina kinda filled me in on what was going on, so I had to fake my reaction.) Master Hand should be a happy camper now...
Chrom: I was not ready for our wedding, I had to do the whole ceremony wearing this knit cap on my head! I could've waited until my hair grew back so I could marry Raven in style, but no, Master Hand had to dictate my romantic life, for his own personal gain. But, Raven and I are finally married, so that's nice...
"Who was Chrom's best man, and who officiated the wedding?" asked Sonic, wanting to know as many details as possible. Not that Sonic was intrigued by Chrom and Raven tying the knot, but the hedgehog loved attending weddings, for whatever reason.
"Roy was the best man, and Marth was the officiant of the ceremony," replied Raven - how very fitting that Roy was Chrom's best man. "Both were given their duties on very short notice, but they delivered regardless."
"Still feeling some type of way about not getting invited...but I'll get over it later today. Probably. Before I let you go, I must ask you one final question...is it true that Robin is your twin brother?"
"Robin, as my twin brother?" Raven has never been asked this question before, and it made her giggle. "Just because we both look alike doesn't mean that we're twins, or related in general. What possibly makes you think that?"
"I dunno, the whole scheme of your familial structure is weird. If you and Robin were twins, then that would make Robin...your son. And Robin's kids...your grandkids." Sonic long and hard about that, feeling disgusted and bugged out at the same time. "Maybe I'm looking too hard into this."
"Yeah, I'd say so...now would be a good time to leave." Raven got up and left, leaving Sonic in his state of bewilderment. It wasn't until Raven slammed the door that Sonic snapped out of his mild trance.
"Raven, wait, I never got to ask you about why Robin is scared of his own kids!" Realizing that it was too late, Sonic groaned as he sat back in his chair. "Man, that should've been my third question! Me and my unreasonably salty self..."
Sonic: We got too many married swordsmen living in this mansion...Marth Alm, Berkut, and now Chrom. It'll only be a matter of time until Link, Shulk, and Roy marry their respective girlfriends. Not counting on Ike and Cloud to tie up the knot. Corrin and Lloyd...they're lost causes. Is Gil a swordsman? I don't think he'll get married either. The next person I spoke with wasn't married, for some strange reason and his name was Male Wii Fit Trainer. Such a shame that he and the other Wii Fit Trainer aren't together. Mainly because they both match each other in terms of unattractiveness, for a lack of a better word.
Sonic was noodling around on his phone, waiting for the next person to arrive, when someone with pale skin entered the room. Like Wii Fit Trainer, this person wore fitness gear, and even had the words Wii Fit on his shirt.
"Nothing like a good hearty workout to get your afternoon going!" said this man, wiping his face off with a towel - it was the male Wii Fit Trainer. For the sake of convenience, we'll just call him Male Wii Fit. "Hello Sonic, have you done any exercising today?"
"I'm a hedgehog that runs at the speed of sound, duh," replied Sonic, baffled that Male Wii Fit would ask such a stupid question. "I run everyday, it's my life MO! Come over and take a seat, this won't take long..."
"Sometimes I wish I could run as fast as you." Male Wii Fit would take a seat, boring Sonic with his constant talking. "To run at breakneck speed, like the superhero Flash...I'd make it look effortless!"
"Flash ain't got nothing on me, let's just make that clear...on to the questions. How long have you and the female Wii Fit been dating?" Male Wii Fit knew this question was coming, as evidenced by the smirk on his face.
"We don't really have much of a relationship, per se...we just text each other throughout the week, giving each other exercise tips and advice." If both Wii Fits were dating, they would be the most boring couple ever, at least in Sonic's eyes.
"Not ready yet to make that leap, huh...no problem with that, you can always wait to make your move. Next question...how will we be able to tell you and the female Wii Fit apart?" Shouldn't that be obvious? Perhaps Sonic wanted to see how Male Wii Fit would respond.
"Easy, really - you can just tell by how Female Wii Fit's face is structured, and also by the curves of her body. She's way more petite than I am. Not to mention that she has breasts, a very easy telltale sign."
"Did you just make baseless assumptions about females just now? Are you a sexist or something, Male Wii Fit?" The whole Q&A session was taking a turn Male Wii Fit did not expect, and the fitness trainer didn't know how to react.
"I'm not a sexist, and I hope to never stoop down to such a low level. Nothing that I said was entirely sexist. I was just...stating the obvious, really." Sonic was left in even more shock, looking at Male Wii Fit like he had heard the dirtiest joke in existence.
"Aha, so you really are a sexist!" Sonic hopped unto the table, accusingly pointing at Male Wii Fit. "I knew it all along! How do you even go to sleep every night, knowing that you like to stereotype the very women you engage with every day?"
"This has certainly gone off the rails..." Male Wii Fit quickly got up, and got out of the room in a hurry. "It was nice speaking with you, Sonic! Oh and by the way, I'm not a sexist!"
"I got my eye on you, Male Wii Fit," Sonic warned the fitness trainer, who had just left the room. "Your time is coming!"
Sonic: *laughs* I really had that man Male Wii Fit in for a scare! Dude was so scared, he left the room before I could drag him through the mud! Good thing I've gotten over accusing people for wrongdoing ever since the whole Berkut thing, otherwise Male Wii Fit would've been in deep trouble. Unfortunately I couldn't work any scare tactics the next person I spoke with - she was too good.
The doorbell to the mansion sounded once again, and Meta Knight would go to the foyer to answer the door once again. The Star Warrior had a feeling for who it was.
"That should be an NME salesman, with Chrom's hair gel," assumed Meta Knight, as the doorbell sounded once more. "I'm coming, I'm coming, hold your horses!" Once he reached the front door, Meta Knight opened it...
...and instead of an NME salesman standing on the doorstep, it was a girl, adorned in a red bedlah, with purple hair tied up in a ponytail. Meta Knight had absolutely no idea what to make of her.
"You're not...affiliated with NME Enterprises in any way, are you?" Meta Knight asked the girl. He didn't expect anyone from NME Enterprises to be so...attractive and appealing to the eyes.
"No, I don't think I've ever heard of them before," replied the girl, leaving Meta Knight even more curious. "I'm Shantae - I'm a half-genie from Scuttle Town. Just a small, nifty town in Sequin Land."
"If you're a genie, then where on earth is your lamp?" Meta Knight looked around the doorstep for the lamp in question, but didn't find one anywhere. "Unless you're a free-roaming genie, like the one from that Aladdin show. Who was your former master?"
"I said I'm a half-genie, you twit...I don't even need a lamp. My dad's human, and my mom is a genie." Meta Knight dared not to think about how a human and genie getting together was biologically possible, unless Shantae's parents skipped past some by-laws.
"A human father and a genie mother...that's a very unique pairing if I ever heard one. So what do you want, looking for some gold or jewelry? Genies like that kind of stuff, don't they?"
"I'm not looking for that kind of stuff...well, not now at least. I'm looking for my Magic Jam - I had let this creep named Master Hand borrow some of my jam, so he could craft some peanut butter and jelly sandwich he's been dying to make. Not sure how he can eat it. He promised to return my jam, but he never did..."
"For one thing, you're definitely right about Master Hand being a creep. Too bad I can never say that to him straight-up, without the fear of dying. He's secretly a sensitive fellow, take it from me. Let me show you where Master Hand's room is..."
Meta Knight escorted Shantae to Master Hand's room, and the Star Warrior peered inside and saw Sonic speaking with another person. It was Lip, a fairy who was the wielder of the Flower Wand.
"So you wanna become a magician, is that right?" Sonic asked Lip, as Meta Knight motioned Shantae to enter the room, albeit quietly. "When did you realize that a magician was the right job for you?"
"I had cast a spell on a sick Piranha Plant, and I made it well again!" explained Lip, with a cheery smile, as Meta Knight and Shantae sneaked their way around the room. Sonic saw the two with the corner of his eye. "And Captain Rainbow was there, and he saw how effective my wand was!"
"I've seen pictures of Captain Rainbow online...going off your encounter with him, is Captain Rainbow the alter ego of Captain Falcon?" As Lip pondered over Sonic's question, Meta Knight and Shantae looked underneath Master Hand's bed, and found jars of Magic Jam.
"Well they do have very similar builds, I will admit...but Captain Rainbow sounds a tad younger. Though I could be wrong." Sonic hardly listened to Lip's answer, for he was too busy paying attention to Meta Knight and Shantae leaving the room with the jars of Magic Jam.
"That is a great response, thank you for sharing." Sonic was still looking at Meta Knight and Shantae, only looking back at Lip after Meta Knight closed the door. "I'm sure your wand can cure cancer and AIDS, if you put your mind to it."
Sonic: I might be crazy, or insane, but I totally saw Shantae in the flesh while I was speaking with Lip. Why did Master Hand not invite her to the mansion?! She's cool, she's hip, and with her outfit, she's walking eye candy! Master Hand must care about the single men too much - they always have to ruin everything. If only Leaf was half as cool as Shantae was...Red will teach her the ways, one day.
"Thanks for helping me retrieve my Magic Jam...I never asked what your name was, did I?" Shantae asked Meta Knight, standing in the foyer carrying her jars of Magic Jam. "What's your name?"
"I'm Meta Knight, but everyone calls me...well, Meta Knight," replied Meta Knight, whose usually preferred to go by Meta Knight. No clue what the Star Warrior was trying to do there. "Sorry you had to give up your jam to Master Hand."
"That'll teach me to never sail along the coastline...that's how Master Hand found me in the first place. Wouldn't even let me sail my snazzy boat in peace! I should be going now, gotta get this Magic Jam back to Scuttle Town."
"In that case, I bid you a safe trip back. I'd be more than pleased to see you visit again...not that I would like for you to return, but chances are I might see your face again. I can just tell..."
"Eh, if Master Hand refuses to give me back my stuff, then I might have to make another visit here. Who knows. Have a good day!"
After Shantae left the mansion with her jars of Magic Jam, Meta Knight left the foyer so he could return to whatever he was doing. Red the Pokemon Trainer soon entered the foyer, and he was joined by another fellow trainer...this one being a girl. Her name was Leaf.
"Some really nice stuff today, that shiny Charizard of yours is too good!" Red complimented Leaf, like a proud teacher commending his student. "Though it's not better than MY Charizard...just saying."
"Of course you would say that, you're always biased when it comes to your Pokemon..." giggled Leaf, as Red giggled as well. Red still thought his Charizard was superior to Leaf's, though. "...but your Charizard is pretty good."
"'Pretty great' is what you meant to say. Don't undersell my Charizard like that." Red looked at his watch, and then looked back at Leaf. "Wanna do a Pokemon battle in the sanctuary later today?"
"Sure, I'm down. I should get some lunch. But I gotta see what Sonic wants first..." Leaf would walk away, as Red looked at the female Pokemon trainer with a proud look on his face.
Red: Been training Leaf ever since she joined the mansion to be a great Pokemon trainer. No, I'm not training her to be the best...I'm training her to be the second best. Even better than Blue. If Leaf makes it far into the Indigo League, I'll let her beat the snot out of Blue, the current champion...and then I'll swipe in at the last minute and beat Leaf in a Pokemon battle. Let her know who's boss.
Leaf sat with Sonic in Master Hand's room. As an order from Sonic, Leaf had to send out her three Pokemon - Squirtle, Ivysaur, and Charizard, all of whom were shiny - so they could be in attendance.
"Leaf, Leaf, Leaf...how were you able to find shiny Pokemon?" Sonic asked the Pokemon trainer, addressing the elephant in the room. "Run around in the grass a lot? Traveled through a bunch of caves? Surfed every lake you set your eyes on?"
"Actually, Sonic, I got these three Pokemon from Professor Oak," stated Leaf, leaving Sonic baffled; Sonic desired to know how a simple trainer like Leaf was allowed to have three starter Pokemon. "Same goes for Red."
"Red must've lied to me then...bah, forget what I just said. Speaking of Red, he's taken quite a great deal of interest in you lately...he's not flirting with you, is he? Because I'm sure there's an age gap..."
"No, he's not flirting with me - he's just helping me improve as a Pokemon trainer." This was shocking to Sonic, as he didn't know Red was capable of teaching anyone. "It's been smooth sailing so far."
"Smooth sailing, huh? How can it be smooth sailing when you're getting Pokemon tips from a man who still dresses like a ten-year old?!" The way Sonic sounded, it was like he was throwing shade all over Red.
"Is it necessary that I answer this question...?" Leaf eyed around the room, not wanting to throw her teacher Red under the bus. "Can you ask me something else?"
"Sure, why not...who's a better dresser, Red or Blue? You can use some examples, if you like." Yet another question Leaf was uncomfortable in answering, as the Pokemon trainer bit her lip.
"I'm gonna go with..." Leaf trembled and closed her eyes, ready to reveal her answer. "...Blue?" The Pokemon trainer opened her eyes, looking at Sonic, who found himself nodding in agreement.
"You're right, Blue is indeed the better dresser! Anyone with eyes can see that. Now for the follow-up question...why is Blue a better dresser than Red? Again, you can use examples to validate your claim..."
"What claim? Can I just say that Blue is the better dressed of the two, and leave it at that?! What's with all these unnecessary questions? I don't even feel remotely comfortable answering them!"
"Uh oh, someone's got a lot of attitude...which leads me to my fifth and final question: if you ever see Red and Blue fight - you know, with their own fists and not with their Pokemon - would you either throw yourself in, to stop the fight, or..."
"You know what Sonic, I'm getting real tired of your silly questions." Leaf angrily stood up from her chair, staring down Sonic. "When you told me that you wanted to 'know me better', I was expecting something more engaging...not being asked questions about Red and Blue."
"To be fair, I can't help that you're not that interesting of a person." Sickened by Sonic's response, Leaf returned her Pokemon to her Poke Balls, as she stormed out of the room. "Don't tell Red a single thing we've discussed!" Sonic called out to Leaf, after she made her exit.
Sonic: Tsk tsk tsk...that Leaf, so uncool. Got all upset for no reason. It's okay if she thinks Red is inferior to Blue, in every way, it's all about self-awareness. Poor Leaf is too loyal to ever know what that's all about. After I had spoken with Leaf, I was able to squeeze in one more interview, with a guy Master Hand hates the most...
Master Hand had a joyful time over at Crazy Hand's residence. There, the giant hand discussed all sorts of things with Crazy Hand - subspace, money, hot girls, and even soda machines. Crazy Hand was truly an open thing, even though he loved talking about the most unconventional things.
When he returned to the mansion, Master Hand was in a relatively good mood. He knew Crazy Hand was great company. But that good mood would fade away, when he saw Sonic in his room...speaking with Tom Nook. With Tom Nook were Timmy and Tommy, the tanoki twins.
"Do you really trust Tortimer to run Smashville as mayor, while you're away?" Sonic asked Tom Nook, aware of how old Tortimer was. He was quite up there, in terms of age. "Can he use a podium to speak, without needing a cane?"
"Why would he ever need a podium for?" questioned Tom Nook, as he fastened his red tie. Timmy and Tommy looked up, spotting a certain giant hand. "Not like he's running for reelection. I have a lot of trust in Tortimer - he is a former mayor."
"Um, Tom Nook, I think we have some company..." Timmy warned the tanoki, with Tommy attempting to speak in unison with Tommy only to lag behind him. Tom Nook looked up, and saw Master Hand, seething very deeply.
"What in Masahiro Sakurai's name are you and your sons doing in my room?" Master Hand asked Tom Nook - were Timmy and Tommy Tom Nook's sons? Master Hand seemed to think so.
"Guess you didn't get the memo, did you?" asked Tom Nook, knowing Master Hand wasn't ready for what he would say next: "I'm living in the mansion now. Me, Tommy, Timmy...we're all mansion residents."
"B-But how? Who told you that you and your sons were allowed to stay in my establishment?! Tell me who it was, so I can end their putrid life in a heartbeat!"
"Isabelle said that I was on the list of folks that would be joining the mansion...it was a list that YOU prepared yourself. So you were the one who allowed me to..."
"Sonic, why are you speaking with that sociopath Tom Nook, what's wrong with you man?" Master Hand snapped on Sonic, refusing to believe a single thing Tom Nook said. It was silly talk to him. "Why do it in my room, you know I keep my room locked when I'm away!"
"Isabelle was kind enough to let me in, so you should be blaming her," replied Sonic, not wanting to make Master Hand even angrier than he already was. "I just wanted to hang out with the newbies, get to know them better, you know?"
"Master Hand, let me just say that Isabelle showed me a room you had prepared, just for me and the twins," stated Tom Nook, as a seething Master Hand floated away from Tom Nook and to his bedroom door, opening it. "Almost makes me believe that you really don't hate me as much as you claim..."
"PETEY PIRANHA, GET YOUR BUTT IN HERE!" Master Hand called out, as he turned to face Tom Nook and company. Some loud, giant footsteps were fastly approaching, making the others nervous.
"I'm sorry...did you say, Petey Piranha?" asked Sonic, getting a very uneasy feeling in his stomach. The footsteps were getting closer and closer.
"Yes, Sonic, I believe there's one more newbie you have yet to speak with. He's the last newbie to join the mansion. He should be here at any minute..."
The giant footsteps got even louder, and then in came Petey Piranha, the large mutant Piranha Plant. Petey had to squeeze his way inside Master Hand's room, as his head was close to the ceiling.
"Petey Piranha...say hello to your prey," Master Hand said to the mutant Piranha Plant, who was all smiles. "Tom Nook, Timmy, Tommy...and Sonic." Sonic looked at Master Hand in disbelief, clutching his pearls.
"Wait, why do I have to be the prey, what did I even do?" questioned Sonic, fearing what it would be being stuck inside Petey's mouth. It was a though the hedgehog dared not to dwell upon.
"You let Tom Nook inside my room and you spoke with him, that's what you did. You deserve to suffer as much as Tom Nook does. Now Petey, attack!"
Petey sported a very toothy grin on his face, as he lined himself up with Tom Nook and company, situated in front of him. Getting into a running start, the mutant Piranha Plant dashed towards Tom Nook, as Master Hand gleefully watched...
Sonic: Yeah, Petey pretty much ate me and Tom Nook and the twins alive...which is why I've got all these bite marks all over my body. We were inside Petey's stomach for like two minutes, before Isabelle had to come in and pry us out. You can bet your socks she gave Master Hand a good ol' scolding after she was done rescuing us. Petey's stomach acid smelled...pretty refreshing, not gonna lie. Could be because he's a plant.
But, since Master Hand's back, I have no chance at speaking with Petey...not that I would, since he agreed to EAT ME ALIVE! And the fact that he can't speak. Might be for the better. But I'm looking forward to staying with him in the mansion...provided he doesn't eat me alive. And I'm looking forward to staying with all the other new guys too. Hopefully my discussions with them made them more acclimated...
