Alright, here's the last of the three oneshots I had in mind. It's short, but I thoroughly enjoyed it.

This chapter is brought to you by the tracks 'Bloody Tears/Monster Dance Remix' and 'Gangplank Galleon Remix' from Smash Ultimate.

This chapter is also dedicated to reviewer pokemonking0924, WHO WAS SOMEHOW THE SECOND PERSON TO GUESS AN IDEA I HAD FOR A ONESHOT! ARE YOU PEOPLE ALL PSYCHIC OR SOMETHING?!

"I CHALLENGE YOU!"

For a moment, the room went dead silent, as every member of the Team slowly turned their heads to face the redhead currently pointing dramatically at a random spot on the wall and standing directly in front of the television.

"Um… what?" M'Gann asked.

Letting out a short sigh of frustration, he held up a plastic game case bearing the Super Smash Bros Brawl logo. "Smash Tournament! Come on, it'll be fun!"

The Martian Girl looked around, a hopeful look on her face. "Can we?"

"I'm in!" Robin immediately volunteered.

"Me too." Zatanna agreed, and Artemis nodded too.

Conner and Kaldur were a little more reluctant, but after a bit of wheedling from their far more enthusiastic friends, they gave in.

Then there was only one person to convince.

Wally took the solemn duty upon himself, kneeling on the ground in front of the stone hearted Thanagarian who had quietly been watching events unfold.

"Please, please, please?" He begged.

Skylar rose a brow, mentally weighing her options, before coming to a decision. "I'll watch."

The speedster leapt to his feet faster than the eye could track. "GOOD ENOUGH! LET'S DO THIS!"

Skylar spectated the proceedings from a spot carefully perched cross-legged on the back of the couch, Robin sitting in front of her. Wally and Robin had started off with a 'practice round', showing off the game to the newcomers, namely Kaldur, Conner, and M'Gann. Artemis and Zatanna revealed that they both already had prior experience with the game.

Once the new players had gotten a chance to play a little and practice, Zatanna scrawled out a bracket on a piece of paper that she'd scrounged up, though the structured manner of play ended after the first tournament. From that point, people just played against whoever they wanted to. Things had devolved a little, as Wally and Robin picked random every time, while M'Gann had stuck to Jigglypuff for the past three rounds (of which she'd somehow managed to win one, none of them were sure how the hell that managed to happen).

"Hey, I think you should give it a shot." Artemis nudged Skylar's shoulder.

"Yeah, you'll never know if you like it if you don't try it." Zatanna added, nodding eagerly.

Narrowing her eyes for a moment, she remained silent, before offering the slightest of nods. "Perhaps you are right. I will try the game."

There was a raucous cheer, and M'Gann handed off her controller to the Thanagarian

"Wally, why don't you go one on one with her?" Robin suggested, putting his own controller onto the coffee table.

"I'll be sure to go easy on you." Wally winked as he set up the stage, picking the Pokémon Stadium for the sake of ease. Once it was selected, he picked Fox as his character. Earlier, he had tried to play as Sonic, but couldn't handle the constant jabs about 'speedsters sticking together'. "You need a crash course?"

"I know the buttons." She insisted. "I have been watching Robin." Considering the screen, she moved the cursor over several characters, before finally deciding on Link.

"Ooh, good choice." Zatanna grinned wide. "Why'd you pick him?"

"His weapon looks well-made and a shield provides excellent defense."

Robin snorted a little in amusement. "Well, you're not wrong."

With another button press, the match started, counting down.

"I'll give you a chance to adjust." With a smug grin, Wally physically sat back, controller lax in his hands.

Brow furrowing and hunching over a little, Skylar manipulated the controls, only to become the subject of well-natured ridicule as she accidentally ran Link right off the edge of the platform. As her character dropped back down onto the stage, she waited for the invincibility frames to wear off before letting out a short breath and straightening her spine.

Wally was oblivious to her change in posture. "Alright, time's up. Prepare to- WHAT THE HELL?!"

She had gotten off a hookshot that pulled Fox in close, kicking him off the stage and then throwing a boomerang that made recovery difficult. Wally just barely managed to save it, but Skylar was relentless.

A good five minutes later, Link was proclaimed the champion, and Skylar had a smug look on her face.

"What… What was that?" Wally's voice was almost a squeak. "Did you do all that just from watching us play?"

For a moment, she considered going along with the charade, but she'd fooled them enough for one day. Instead, she looked at him with a predatory smile. "One cannot defeat the holder of the Triforce of Courage, Farore's chosen champion so easily."

Robin was the first to catch on, cackling so hard he nearly fell off of the couch, pointing at her accusingly. "You're a nerd!"

Her smile turned a little less sharp and into something more genuine. "I've never claimed to be anything less." Seeing the general confusion, she elaborated. "I've been a fan of Legend of Zelda since I was a child. It was Roy's influence. He then introduced me to Smash Brothers. We used to play against each other, and his mentor would often join us. I can't count how many times we played through the campaign together."

"Wait, wait, wait, so… You've been pretending to be disinterested in video games for…"

"A single glorious moment of triumph and vindication, yes." She affirmed. "Worth it."

"… You're insane."

Skylar shrugged. "It's been said. Now, let's play again. I look forward to your inevitable repeated defeat."

"Oh it is on."

And that's it for now. Hope you're all having a lovely day!
