Pit heard from the others that Ness is back! This is good news. He can finally talk to him about Kirby. A lot has happened since she changed into a girl. The other smashers were against her for some reason, as if some horrible person was spreading lies about her. Ness was at the party, he can vouch for him. The others won't listen to Pit.
Pit left his room to be greeted with Dark Pit. The dark angel hasn't been leaving Pit alone lately. He always wanted to be with him, which is fine, but sometimes it got pretty annoying.
"Hey Pittypat, whatcha up to?" Dark Pit smiled.
"Hey, Pittoo, um I was on my way to knock on Ness's door."
"That's right, he's finally back!"
"Yep. Well I'll be on my way."
"Can I come with?"
"Sure."
Pit hated it, but he didn't want to offend Dark Pit. The new Dark Pit was too much. Sometimes Dark Pit decided to sneak into Pit's room and wait for him to come home. Pit had a habit of not locking his door, but ever since this has been happening, he's been double checking to make sure that his door was locked. Coming home to an eager Dark Pit was exhausting and scary. He would legit jumpscare him.
The two made their way to Ness's door. Pit knocked and surprisingly the teen answered. He dressed differently today. Huh, he wondered why it's in the middle of winter.
"Ness! I'm so happy you're finally back!" Pit hugged him.
"Ah! Haha, yeah I'm back."
"Oh man, where have you been?"
"Oh man, I was locked away in a dungeon. It was horrible."
"No way! How?"
"It was that pink-haired imposter. She did it!"
"You mean Kirby?"
"What? No!"
"Dude, you were there at the party. That woman is Kirby. You know this."
"Uh… I don't know what you're talking about."
"Y-you were there! Don't you remember?"
"Um, well my head is all fuzzy from the trauma."
"Dude, what happened to you? W-we need to find Kirby and tell everyone that it's her."
"No dude, you're the one that got it all wrong. Anyway, I gotta head to the library and do Ness shit."
"Why are you talking like that?"
"Don't know what you mean, bro," Ness said walking down the hallway.
"Ness! Wait, don't go! I need you, dude."
"Sorry, gotta go."
Aaaand he's gone. What the fuck is going on? Why did he just leave like that? Also why did he say Ness shit? This isn't like him at all. Things are getting weird. Too weird for Pit's liking. He guessed it's time to look for Kirby alone.
"What's wrong, Pittypat?" Dark Pit asked.
"Ness is acting weird. He's usually sweeter."
"Well what now?"
"We look for Kirby."
The two knocked on Kirby's door, but she didn't answer. They saw a note on her door that said she left smash. Wait, what! She left?! There's no way! She's been here since 64. Wow, he couldn't believe that she just left. She didn't even say goodbye to him. Pit sadly walked away from the door and went to the food court. There, he heard rumors from the other smashers that they were glad that the 'imposter' finally left. They were still upset that Kirby was dead. Wait, dead? Kirby isn't dead! She left. She just left. He wanted to yell at the other smashers that they were the ones that drove her away, but he didn't have energy. They looked at him like he was a fool. He sat there, bottling up his emotions becoming angrier and sadder every second. Dark Pit tried to cheer him up, but he didn't pay attention. He wished everything would go back to normal.
…
Clone Ness's heart was beating fast. Mario forgot to tell him that Pit was at the party. Damn, that was too close. Oh well, he needed to pretend to act like his loser counterpart, which means no Leaf or any romance sadly. He entered the library. The librarian smiled at him and said "welcome back." Man, how often does he come here? Oh well. He grabbed a book and sat on a table alone.
Leaf texted him. He sighed and ignored it. The boss wouldn't be happy if he was talking to her. He was only supposed to talk and be with Lucas, which sucked. Lucas is cute and all, but he's awkward. He also kept staring at him. This guy is totally obsessed. He wondered how the original interacted with this freak.
Ness felt like he had been here for hours. It's only been 30 minutes. This is hell. Why did the original have to be boring? He didn't even read the book. It was just open and out. He's been staring at the clock. He put his head down and tried to take a nap, but someone tapped his shoulder. He looked up to see Leaf. She smiled at him and said "Hey, I knew you'd be here." Oh no. This isn't good.
…
Kirby woke up and found herself in a cage next to Villager's bed. Right, the last thing she remembered was Villager closing the door and giving her a creepy smile. He also.. Oh no, he turned her into a trophy. He slowed down time and she couldn't react in time to get out of the way. She stood up and wanted to grab the bars, but her hands were tied together. She tried using her strength to break it apart, but she felt weak. Using any sort of strength felt exhausting.
Villager had been staring at her the entire time. She only now realized he's been sitting on his bed watching her. He only stared and smiled. She looked around his room and his walls were covered in pictures of her. She started shaking. That's right, she's in trouble.
"Um, Villager?" She spoke.
"Yes, Princess?"
"Why?"
"Why what?"
"Please let me go."
"Why do you want to go?"
"You know I have someone else. I can't be with you like that."
"So, you know what relationships are. Interesting."
"I know I seem stupid, but I've learned a lot."
"Oh honey, I'm not calling you stupid."
"What do you want from me?"
"I want you to be my wife of course."
"Why?"
"Ever since I first saw you, I fell in love."
"That's… But… I… You can't just keep me here."
"Yes, I can. You're mine now. I can do what I want with you."
"Villager, let me go."
"Are you hungry, honey?"
"Stop calling me honey."
"Ok, how about Darling?"
"No!"
"Darling it is."
"Villager, please just let me go."
"I'll make some pancakes."
"Villager no! Wait, can you at least undo my chains?"
Villager left the room. She looked around to see if there was anything she could use. All she could see from the ground were pictures of herself all over the floor and walls. This is the most disturbing thing she's ever witnessed. She didn't expect Villager to act like this at all. He's always been sweet and quiet. Maybe that's the problem. He was too sweet and quiet. He was hiding this ugly part of him.
Villager came back with a plate of Pancakes. She must resist the urge to eat. She was hungry, but what if he did something to those pancakes. She couldn't risk it. Villager tried feeding her, but she didn't open her mouth. That's when his crazy side took over. He opened her mouth and shoved the pancakes inside. He forced her to chew. She tried not to swallow, but then he forced water down her throat and she had no choice but to swallow the food. At that second it felt like she was drowning.
"Wasn't that tasty?" Villager smiled.
*Cough* *Cough*
"Aww babe don't be like that."
Villager reached his hand out for her. She quickly moved to the other side of the cage. The cage was a bit spacey, surprisingly. He looked shocked when she bolted away. He stood up from his bed and opened the cage. Now's her chance! She ran up to him and tried to body him to the ground, but he moved away. She landed on the floor and her ribs landed on the steel part of the entrance of the cage. Not to mention, she hit her head hard on the hardwood floor. He helped her up and shoved her back inside the cage. She sat on the corner of the cage and stared at him with fear.
"That's not good, Kirby. You can't be attacking your husband like that," Villager frowned.
She was breathing heavily. She didn't know what to do. She didn't know what he was going to do. He reached his hand out again. This time she closed her eyes and braced for impact. She was shocked when he was patting her head. Ok, this isn't too bad. It's creepy, but he could be doing worse. Her anxiety kicked up when he began smelling and playing with her hair.
"Villager, please stop this is creepy," She begged.
"Come on, doesn't this feel nice?"
"N-no."
"No?"
"Let me go!"
"Hmm, ok I know what you really want."
Villager grabbed her face and smiled. She tried pulling her head back, but he was forcefully pulling it toward his. She suddenly let her body loose, while he was using his strength to pull her head closer. This caused her to headbutt him right on the forehead. He immediately put his hand to his face. She kicked his stomach multiple times. He's stunned! Now's her chance to escape. She got up and ran out of the cage. She made it to the front door, but her hands were still tied behind her back. She tried using her mouth to turn the knob, but Villager punched her in the face. She fell on the ground. He grabbed her by the legs and dragged her back to his room. She squirmed around, but it was no use, he had a good grip on her. He threw her back inside the cage.
"If you keep doing this, I'm going to tie your legs too," He said angrily.
*Breathes heavily*
"Listen, you're living here rent free. You will not disrespect me. DO. YOU. UNDERSTAND?!"
"..."
Villager punches the cage causing a loud sound to pierce Kirby's ears. She flinched. She went back to her corner and started shaking.
"Now, where were we?" Villager smirked.
He went back inside the cage and grabbed her hair. He pulled her hair towards him. Their faces were centimeters apart. She then started hyperventilating. She tried moving her head to the opposite direction but it hurt her scalp to move even an inch. It was so painful. Villager smashed his lips into hers. She kept her teeth shut, so he couldn't do anything more. This made him angry. He slapped her, but she stayed strong. She kept her teeth shut. He then began punching her in the face over and over again. She could feel the bruises forming in her face. He didn't punch her nose or her eyes. He wanted her to stay beautiful, but she needed to know the suffering that he was going through, so he kept punching her directly on the cheek. It turned purple and became swollen.
Kirby felt pain all over face. She laid on the floor breathing heavily when he was done punching her. He helped her sit up and he gently pressed his lips against hers. She still managed to keep her teeth shut.
"You're making this difficult, Kirby," Villager said.
Kirby didn't respond. She jerked her head away from him. He shook his head and left the room. She sighed from relief. With Villager gone she was able to calm herself down, but it was short lived when he came back with a Candle.
"Hey, Kirby, you like candles, right?" He smiled a sinister smile.
