[Takes place during PokéPark 2: Wonders Beyond]
The young Snivy was not having a good day. This was outwardly shown to everyone she walked past by the scowl on her face and the stomping of her feet. Many were wise enough to steer clear of Snive to avoid being on the receiving end of her anger, especially because most knew that she was the current princess of the Arbor Area. News seemed to have travelled fast in the area as many passersby were whispering to themselves about why the princess was so upset; a forced marriage proposal without the princess' consent.
"The fucking nerve of her! She always does shit like this!" Snive yelled to herself. "And she wants it to be that asshole of all Pokémon."
News was dropped on her abruptly early in the morning. She was planning on sleeping in an extra few minutes before beginning her day but her mother, the queen of the Arbor Area, summoned her to the throne room. Snive knew that she wasn't going to like whatever her mother wanted from her, especially since she forced her up early. Upon entering the throne room, she found not only her mother, but another Serperior and a Servine there as well. Snive was told that this Servine, named Drew, was another noble's son that she could be wedded to. In fact, the queen had taken a special interest in this Servine, saying that he was the most promising candidate to come about so far. Snive, like with all the other suitors to have come to her court, didn't see the appeal. In fact she felt like he may have been the worst one of the bunch, coming off with an air of superiority and cockiness that she didn't want to be around. He came up to Snive right after her mother and his mother introduced him, bowing in the customary fashion and expecting Snive to present her hand for him to kiss. She didn't however, instead crossing her arms and presenting him with her famous "resting bitch face" to show her disinterest in him. Before Snive's mother could scold her for her rudeness, Drew instead stood up and smiled at her, as if this was something he was expecting, which unnerved Snive a little. He went on to say that Snive was the perfect match for him, saying they would be happily wed and that she'll become a model princess with him as her husband. The queen and Drew's mother were delighted by this, not caring for Snive's reaction as she looked shocked by them and Drew's statement. Before she could voice her complaints, Drew came up next to her suddenly and whispered in her ear.
"We'll be making some beautiful heirs together." He whispered. Before the shiver of discomfort could fully race down her spine, Snive quickly extended one of her vines and slapped Drew hard across the face, resulting in a loud whipping sound and causing Drew to be pushed a couple of steps away from her. The mothers and those who remained in the court at this time; the servants and other nobles, all gasped at the attack. Not giving anyone any time to comment on what just happened, Snive quickly turned around and stomped angrily out of the throne room, leading to her current location at the junction point between the Areas of PokéPark.
"Today is supposed to be a good day too. She just had to ruin it as usual." Snive huffed as she found a bench to sit on in order to wait for her new friends to get here.
"*scoffs* Friends…" Snive said to herself, still in disbelief that she managed to make some sort of friendship in her life. The only other relationships she had outside of her mother were with her servants and other nobles who only saw her as the princess. These two seemed to treat her more as an equal than anything else which was a breath of fresh air to Snive. Granted, the only reason she met the Pikachu and Oshawott was because of the Wish Park Crisis. She had heard about it going but didn't think to get involved in it, mainly because she wouldn't have known where to start and she had never been to Wish Park in the first place. The two guys were conveniently stumbling around the Arbor Area making a mess of things a few days ago in their pursuit to solve the crisis, leading her to run into them. Realizing that hanging out with them would lead to getting away from her mother and the court for a while made her basically force herself into the group, much to the annoyance of the Oshawott. Plus, solving this crisis would help save her Pokémon and all of PokéPark so she considered this a full win in her book. Still, she'd rather not have them see her upset like this after just meeting them. She made herself out to be, in her opinion, the cool, sarcastic girl of the group and this was hurting that image.
Let's hope they both sleep in late so I can calm myself down before they get here. It's not like anyone would willingly wake up this early for anything. Snive thought to herself.
"Well this is a surprise. Didn't expect to see you of all Pokémon to be up this early." A new voice spoke out, surprising Snive and taking her out of her thoughts. Turning behind her, she saw Dew walking up to her with an energetic smile on his face. "Thought you'd be getting more beauty sleep in."
Arceus damnit, I spoke too soon. Snive grumbled as she turned back around and looked forward, Dew finally reaching her and taking a seat on the same bench. "Not in the mood today Dew-fus."
"That nickname again..? What, you slept on the wrong side of the bed or something..?" Dew started before cutting himself off upon seeing the look Snive was giving him to stop talking. "Woah, you're serious. Okay, I'll stop."
Realizing that she was unnecessarily taking her anger out on someone who had nothing to do with the situation, Snive attempted to calm herself with a sigh.
"Sorry, you're right." Snive said. "I'm honestly not having the best morning right now."
"How come?" Dew questioned.
"My mom, as usual." Snive said as she frowned at being reminded of her. "She decided to drop a bombshell of an announcement on me without my consent! She gave me no choice in the matter!"
"Your mom..? Oh, that's Queen Serperior right?" Dew asked.
"Yep, the bane of my existence." Snive groaned. "She criticizes everything that I do, even when I'm doing something correctly. I bet she only sees me as a tool to marry off since that's all she seems to care about."
"Yeesh, I would be upset by that too." Dew stated. "But from what Master told me about her, I can't say I'm surprised."
"Master?" Snive questioned before realizing something. "Oh yeah, you're Master Samurott's kid."
"Yep, THE Master Samurott. Coolest, most skilled Pokémon in PokéPark." Dew gushed with a bright smile on his face, a smile that caused to feel some sort of good emotion that she couldn't quite understand and one which she ignored. Dew's smile then transformed into a sheepish one. "I'm not his blood son but he still treats me like one of his own kin, trains me too. I hope that I'll get to be at his level one day."
Seeing and hearing Dew gush about his dad brought a small smile to Snive's face as she listened, but she couldn't help but feel a little bit jealous over Dew's family dynamic. She pushed that feeling to the side though.
"You're dad does seem pretty awesome though." Snive started. "But I got a question, how come I never met you before? I've seen your dad loads of times whenever he visited."
"Master thought it would be best if I didn't get involved in the politics of PokéPark, saying that it would interfere with my training and would just be another headache for me." Dew stated. "Seeing how you're acting now, I'm starting to see where he's coming from."
"Trust me, stay as far from politics as you can." Snive said before grumbling. "Since I'm the princess, my whole life is political, hence why my mom is trying to force me into a marriage with some noble asshole. And I fucking hate that. That's why I'm so pissed off today."
"Sucks that you have to deal with all that, it's honestly not fair to you." Dew stated sincerely. "Still, it seems like you're more than just your princess title."
"What do you mean?" Snive questioned.
"Well other than being a princess; so far I find that you are stuck up, sarcastic, rude…" Dew spoke out bluntly before receiving a Vine Whip to the back of the head. "OW! At least let me finish!"
"Finish!? What other insults could you possibly have to hurl at me." Snive stated, feeling reasonably insulted. She then crossed her arms and turned her nose up away from Dew. "Hmph, and you have the nerve to call me rude."
"Alright, I could have worded that better. Still, you didn't have to hit me." Dew stated, only to receive another "hmph" from Snive as she refused to look at him. Dew sighed before continuing. "I guess I could add stubborn to that list as well. Anyway, I was also going to say that you're pretty cool, skilled, and courageous considering you decided to help us with the Wish Park Crisis and mopped the floor with Spark when we met."
"O-oh." Snive stuttered out in surprise with a blush appearing on her face, not expecting to get complimented out of the blue as she turned back to face Dew. "W-well I mainly joined to get away from my mother for a while."
"I'm pretty sure you know of a lot safer ways to avoid your mother. You genuinely wanted to help other Pokémon and that's commendable." Dew stated with a genuine smile.
"Heh, thanks Dew-fus." Snive stated with a small smile, feeling better and no longer thinking about the forced marriage.
"Now if you could work on your attitude then maybe you'll attract some nicer nobles." Dew shot with a smirk, breaking Snive's smile.
"Oh? And maybe you'd be at your master's level if you weren't so rude and cocky." Snive shot back, causing Dew to scoff.
"I'm only cocky cause I know I'm good. I'll be at my Master's level in no time if I keep up my training." Dew stated as he stood up and took off his scalchop. He then began to skillfully spin it in one hand with his eyes closed. "I'm even tougher than Spark and I could easily beat ya if I wanted."
Dew then threw his scalchop into the air, expecting it to come back down for him to catch. After a few seconds of catching nothing, Dew opened his eyes and looked around him, thinking he may have dropped it around him. Snive let out a slight cough to get his attention and once she got it, she pointed upward. Dew looked up and saw that Snive had used one of her vines to catch and hold his scalchop above his head, just out of reach. Dew looked back at Snive to see her giving him a teasing smile, Dew responded with a deadpan look.
"Oh you must think you're so funny, huh?" Dew stated sarcastically.
"Oh I know I'm hilarious." Snive stated as she let go of Dew's scalchop, allowing him to catch it as she stood up and retracted her vine. "Now how about you backup that cockiness and try to beat me in a battle."
"You sure about this Snive? You don't mind getting dirty?" Dew questioned in a playful mocking tone.
"I think you'll be the one worrying about being dirty when I beat you to the ground." Snive said in a playful and competitive tone before walking away from Dew.
"Oh we'll see about that!" He responded excitedly before moving in the opposite direction of her. Once the two had a sizable gap between them, they turned around to face each other and got into their battle stances; Snive crouching low to ground prepared herself to charge while Dew activated his scalchop to Razor Shell mode and pointed towards Snive, holding it with two hands. The two looked at each other with a determined smile, the rush of an impending friendly duel quickly filling them. A crowd had also formed around the two at a safe distance, eager to watch an early morning battle unfold. After a brief moment of tension, Snive and Dew took a simultaneous step forward to begin their battle.
"There you are my princess!" A new voice yelled out from within the crowd, causing Snive to quickly stop and nearly trip over.
"Woah!" Dew was not so lucky however, tripping on his own foot in surprise and causing him to fall flat on his face. He let out a muffled groan of annoyance. It's a good thing Master wasn't here to see that.
Snive turned around behind her in the direction of the voice, having a weird and bad feeling that she heard it somewhere before. There were several insults being thrown from in the crowd and Pokémon being told to move out of the way before three new Pokémon emerged; a Buizel, an Eevee, and in between the two, the Servine noble that Snive's mother said she had to marry.
"Oh no…" Snive said while facepalming, her mood quickly souring again as the three newcomers made it up to her.
"The nerve of these peasants, getting in the way of me greeting my soon to be bride." The Servine said, looking back at the crowd with a demeaning look on his face. He then looked towards Snive and quickly gave her a bright smile. "Good to see you again my princess, you stormed off so suddenly that we didn't have time to properly get to know each other."
"The fuck are you doing here Drew?" Snive questioned angrily as he and his goons walked up to her.
"Isn't it obvious, I came to see you. It was quite a shock to see you suddenly storm out of the throne room like that. You must have been questioning whether you would be a good match for me." Drew stated happily, bowing a little and extending a hand towards Snive like he did back at the castle, expecting her to give her hand to him for him to kiss like most noblewomen do. This time around, Snive extended out a vine and slapped his hand away, causing him to flinch and hiss in pain.
"And I thought I made it perfectly clear that I want nothing to do with you, like I want nothing to do with every other pompous noble like you that my mom forces me to marry." Snive insulted, retracted her vine and crossed her arms in front of her as she glared at Drew.
"*scoffs* You would compare me to those fake nobles that preceded me. Now that is rude my princess. They could never compare to my wealth and status." Drew stated with a somewhat hurt expression on his face before smiling again. "No worries though, with time you and I will be the model royal couple that every monarchy will strive to be."
""Model royal?" Have you met Snive?" Dew chimed in, gaining the group's attention as he had finally got up and walked up next to Snive, placing an elbow on Snive's shoulder to lean against her. "She's honestly the furthest thing I expect to see from a model royal, and that's a compliment."
"Dew, off." Snive ordered in a threatening tone, Dew quickly removing himself from her with a nervous laugh.
"Hey, who iz you and why iz you butting in?" The Buizel, Oliver, said while taking a threatening step towards Dew.
"Yeah, stay out of Drew's business punk." The Eevee, Brent, threatened in a high pitched voice. Drew didn't say anything and only glared at Dew, questioning the nerve of this bottom feeder. Dew didn't seem to care about their reactions though as he stepped in front of Snive to Drew with a smile and held out a hand for him to shake.
"Sup, my name's Dew. Son of Master Samurott, one of Snive's friends, and the leading detective in the Wish Park Crisis." Dew said respectfully. "Mind telling me why you're bothering Snive here?"
"Bothering? Please, that is my future wife I'm talking to and you're interfering with royal affairs." Drew stated angrily, slapping Dew's hand away insultinly before looking at him up and down with a judgemental expression on his face. "And I don't have to explain myself to some no-name peasant like you. Now go crawl back to whatever dirt mound you crawled out from."
"Oh yeah, this dude's a real charmer, Snive." Dew said with a side glance to Snive, causing her to sigh in annoyance.
"He's just like every other noble my mom wants me to marry, I can handle him." Snive stated. "They act all high and mighty until they get to know the real me. I'm apparently too rebellious, uncouth, uncontrollable, and in their eyes, rude."
"Sounds about right…" Dew said offhandedly to himself, only to receive another vine whip to his arm. "Ow! I was joking!"
"Oh trust me Princess Snive, I've heard about your reputation far before meeting you today and I'm so happy to see that the rumors were true." Drew said a bit too happily, surprising both Dew and Snive. "Your prickly and ill-refined personality is what drew me to you in the first place."
"Uh, I think you attracted a masochist here, Snive." Dew whispered to Snive but Drew ended up hearing him.
"Quite the opposite peasant." Drew spoke out. "I plan to tame that side of her to turn her into a model princess that will finally be loved by the nobility and bring great heirs to the throne. That's why Her Majesty and my mother see us as such a great match."
There was a moment of silence from the grass and water type starters as the two looked at the noble in shock that he would say something like that.
"...Huh?" Dew spoke out.
"You got another thing coming if you think I'm allowing you to do anything to me." Snive spat out. "I change for no one and best believe that marriage between us is never gonna happen."
"Well it doesn't matter what you believe anyway." Drew scoffed with a shrug and smile. "Our love is destined and Her Majesty and my mother already approve of us being together. It's only a matter of time before we say our vows and "I do's.""
"And I'll be the best mon!" Brent chimed in happily.
"In ya dreams Brent. It's obvious that I'm gonna be Drew's best mon." Oliver stated cockily
"You two are not going anywhere near our ceremony." Drew stated bluntly, causing his lackeys to flinch back with shocked looks on their faces.
"And what they think doesn't matter." Dew spoke up, gaining everyone's attention and receiving an annoyed look from Drew. "It's Snive's life we're talking about here and she clearly doesn't want you. She deserves someone who respects her worth and sees her as more than just a princess and that clearly isn't you."
Snive was understandably surprised by Dew's outburst. No one in her life had ever stood up for her like this. She knew that she could handle Drew like any other nobleman that her mother tried to court her with, though it seemed that Drew will be much more of a nuisance than her past suitors. Still, having someone have her back on something for a reason other than her being a princess felt good. Snive wondered if this is what it felt like to have true friends as she took a quick glance at Dew. Seeing his determined face made her feel that same good emotion from before which she decided to ignore again.
"Listen here you ill bred peasant, the last thing I should have to deal with is someone from the lower classes talking to me with such disrespect. Now go crawl back into whatever hole you came out of before I have to teach you some manners." Drew threatened, causing Dew to scoff as he sized up the grass snake.
"Touch him and you'll get to see what drove my other suitors away." Snive threatened in a dark tone, extending her shoulder vines again.
"Wait, I finally got it!" Brent suddenly yelled out, breaking up the tension as everyone cringed visibly at his voice. "I finally remembered who Master Samurott is!"
"Who carez who Masta' Samurott is? He ain't more important than Drew." Oliver said to Brent in an annoyed tone before he gained a pondering expression. "Wait, ain't that the mon runnin' the Cove Area?"
"Obviously not you dolts. Master Samurott never had any biological heirs…" Drew started before slowly coming to a realization as he looked down at Dew and smirked, causing Dew to glare back at him.
"What?" Dew spat, having an idea of what was coming.
"Is that why you feel like you have the right to speak to me that way, because you believe that being a servant to that washed up explorer makes you worth something? Oh this is rich!" Drew laughed, causing his lackeys to laugh with him as Dew's glare intensified. "You know you're not his real son right? And even if you were, what would it matter? That old fish is past his prime and far from any meaningful relevance."
"Shut up!" Dew yelled out before gritting his teeth in anger, his emotional outburst catching Snive off guard as she never thought she'd see someone like Dew in this type of state. Dew had also unsheathed his scalchop in a threatening manner, causing Drew to raise an eyebrow. "Say what you want about me, I don't give a shit. But I will not allow you to blatantly disrespect my master after everything he's done for me. He's a great Pokémon, explorer, fighter, mentor, and father and I will defend his name till my very end! That goes for him and all of my friends."
"Pfft, he couldn't have been that great. I've heard he let his partner die to some weakling outlaw." Drew stated with another demeaning laugh. This seemed to tip Dew over the edge as he quickly activated a blunt edge Razor Shell sword and suddenly struck Drew across the face, catching him off guard and forcing him to take a step back as he recoiled back. Everyone gasped at the sudden attack minus Drew, who slowly processed the attack as he slowly looked down at his attacker with a threatening aura. Dew quickly got into a fighting stance as he readied himself for a counterattack. "You dirty little peasant…"
Well I didn't see that coming, though I don't blame him for doing it. Snive thought to herself as she looked back and forth between Drew and Dew. Looks like we're gonna have a fight on our hands.
"I warned you, asshole." Dew said. "Come on!"
"I'll make this quick." Drew stated threateningly as he quickly extended out his two shoulder vines and launched them towards Dew. Dew skillfully blocked the two vines, pushing them away whilst also getting pushed back a little from the force of Drew's attack. Dew quickly realized that he would not be able to outpower the evolved snake and knew he'd had to outspeed him, which was easier said than done. As Dew thought this, he noticed the vines coming back towards him from both sides. Dew dashed forward in between the vines, his feet becoming surrounded in water. Thinking he had an easy capture, Drew smirked confidently as he began bringing his vines back to wrap around Dew.
"Dew! Get out of there!" Snive yelled.
"Hah, of course a mere peasant would fall for such a simple-"
"Aqua Jet!" Dew yelled, cutting Drew off as he was fully covered in water and shot towards Drew. Drew, surprised by the sudden attack, couldn't think of a way to defend himself quick enough as he quickly tried to retract his vines. Drew was then tackled by Dew right in the face, pushing him back a few feet away. Landing, Dew swung his Razor Shell hard at Drew's face, getting another hit in and forcing Drew to slide to the side and onto the floor.
"Woah, that was impressive." Snive admitted as Drew sat up and spat out some dirt from his mouth.
"You're gonna pay for that, bottomfeeder." Drew snarled darkly as he got up, charging up a Leaf Blade in his tail. Dew didn't respond with words, only regaining a ready stance as he glared at his opponent.
"Come on Brent, that orphan bastard is gonna get a beatdown." Oliver stated, Brent nodding in response as the two began charging towards Dew who was focused on clashing his blade with Drew's tail. Before the two lackeys could reach their leader, Snive ran in front of the two, cutting them off whilst protracting her vines.
"Oh no you don't boys. You gotta another thing coming if you think I'm gonna let you gang up on Dew. You're fighting me." Snive stated determined. Brent and Oliver looked at each other briefly before laughing their butts off, irritating Snive. "What's so funny?!"
"Just step aside princess. I don't want to get Drew mad because we beat up his fiance." Brent stated sheepishly while waving her off dismissively.
"Know this princess, I ain't afraid to beatdown a weakling, royal or not." Oliver smirked maliciously while cracking his knuckles.
"Funny, I don't have that problem either." Snive responded before confusing Oliver and Brent by performing a handstand and rapidly spun around, causing wind and leaves to quickly spin around her. "Leaf Tornado!"
Snive launched the attack on the two boys, surprising them with its power. It hit Oliver head-on, forcing him inside of it.
"What the hell?!" Oliver yelled from inside the tornado, soon getting picked up by the attack and launched in the sir. He landed roughly a few feet away and struggled to get up from the super effective attack. Brent was lucky to not be hit fully like Oliver, only getting grazed as it moved past him and took Oliver. When the attack subsided, Brent sidestepped whilst his body began to shine and his fur began to flow.
"Swift!" Brent yelled, golden stars appearing from his neck fur before shooting them towards Snive.
"Crap." Snive said to herself, knowing full well that she couldn't avoid this attack. Turning to her side and using her tail and vines to shield herself, Snive took the full force of Brent's attack. The rapid-fire stars forced her to take a few steps back due to the force of the hits before she stabilized herself.
"Ha, we warned ya princess! You still got a chance to give up before I really let loose!" Brent taunted, continuing his Swift attack. Snive ignored him, too focused on figuring out how to counterattack before Oliver got back up.
"Iron Tail!" A new voice rang out, heading Brent's side.
"Huh?" Brent said in surprise, looking to his side only to receive an iron coated tail to the face from a Pikachu. The newcomer used his attack to launch Brent away, conveniently launching him into Oliver and forcing them both to the ground. Noticing Brent's attack had stopped, Snive lowered her guard a little and looked up to see the smiling face of Spark.
"Spark, it's about time you got here. Where have you been?" Snive asked in slight annoyance.
"I got lost." Spark stated sheepishly whilst scratching the back of his head. He saw Snive give him a skeptical look, crossing her arms and raising an eyebrow, causing Spark to nervously laugh. "And I may have also been making a few new friends on the way here…"
"*facepalms* That's what I thought." Snive sighed out, smiling a little at her new friend's antics.
"Who's this bozo?" Oliver questioned as both he and Brent got up, Brent still a bit too disoriented to answer.
"Hey guys, the name's Spark. Kind of still new to these parts of PokéPark." Spark answered in a friendly tone. He then turned to Snive who had since walked up next to him. "So who are these guys and why are we battling?"
"They're that asshole's lackeys and messed with me and Dew. I'll explain the rest later." Snive stated motioning towards Dew and Drew's heated battle. The two became blade locked, Dew's Razor Shell with Drew's Leaf Blade tail. Dew got pushed back, leaving him exposed and received a Vine Whip to the face. Before he could get hit again, Dew launched himself away with an Aqua Jet. "Shit, Dew's not looking good."
"Let's handle these guys quickly and help out Dew." Spark stated, Snive nodding in response before the two of them looked back at their opponents.
"Great, a party crasha'." Oliver stated in annoyance.
"Ugh, we should be careful Oli, that Pikachu hits like an angry Tauros." Brent stated, shaking his head to get rid of the pain and dizziness.
"Stop calling me that." Oliver stated before looking towards his opponents. Despite trying to look confident, Oliver couldn't fully hide his nervousness. "W-we can take 'em."
"We can?" Brent questioned.
"I doubt it!" Snive yelled in response, causing the two to flinch.
"I'll take the Eevee." Spark stated, getting on all fours with his cheeks sparking with electricity. "Ready?"
"Got it. Let's do this." Snive said before the two charged their opponents. Brent jumped a little upon seeing the looks of determination on Snive and Spark's faces. Oliver acted quicker, charging up a Water Pulse in his hands before running at Snive. Before the two reached each other, Oliver brought his arms back to prepare to launch his attack. When he did this, Snive launched out her vines towards his arms and wrapped around them, surprising him. Snive grunted as she spun her body to the side, forcing Oliver to spin with her. The surprise and speed of the spin forced Oliver to prematurely launch his attack, causing it to harmless hit the ground next to him.
"Fuck!" Oliver yelled in frustration. Continuing her spin, Snive quickly leapt at him after retracting her vines and her tail leaf glowed bright green.
"Leaf Blade!" Snive yelled, spinning again and slapping Oliver in the face with the flat part of her tail. After landing, Snive turned around to see Oliver standing for a second before falling forward to the floor, swirls in his eyes. Seeing her work, Snive smiled haughtily. Back with Spark and Brent, Brent tried to run and bite Spark but missed due to Spark sidestepping, Spark retaliated with a tackle and pushed Brent away.
"Ow, this isn't fair." Brent groaned as he got up and looked towards Spark. "How are you so good?"
"Lot's of practice hon." Spark smiled before looking back at Brent with confidence. "Now you ready to finish this?"
"J-just because you're winning now doesn't mean you're gonna beat me in the end!" Brent yelled as his fur began to shine and flow again. As he did this, Spark was also charging up electricity at the same time. "Swift!"
As the stars began to shoot out of Brent's neck fur, Spark stood up and was now fully charged.
"Thunderbolt!" Spark yelled, firing out a strong bolt of lightning that shot through the stars, dissipating them, and hitting a scared looking Eevee. Brent let out a loud cry of pain as he was shocked. When the attack ended, a smoking Brent with swirly eyes fell to the floor. Seeing his work, Spark smiled brightly and fist pumped the air. "Awesome!"
"Come on! Dew needs help!" Snive state, grabbing Spark's armand pulling towards Dew and Drew's fight. Before Snive and Spark could get to them, Dew was smacked away by Drew's Leaf Blade, shooting him towards Snive and Spark and straight to the floor, falling on his back.
"Dew! Are you okay?" Spark questioned, helping him up into a seated position. Snive said nothing as she assessed the damage Dew took. He had cuts all over his body thanks to Drew's Leaf Blade and bruises as well thanks to his Vine Whips. Dew also looked visibly exhausted as he leaned against Spark to recover some energy. Seeing the state he was in, Snive's anger rose and she turned towards Drew who was looking similarly beat up. While looking noticeably better than Dew, Drew still had plenty of cuts and bruises, showing that Dew put up a hell of a fight. He was even panting a little from exhaustion.
"Alright asshole! We took care of your lackeys so now you gotta deal with us!" Snive yelled, charging up a Leaf Blade.
"I *pants* would advise *pants* against that, my princess." Drew warned, still breathing heavily.
"You're in no shape to act tough Drew. Dew already beat you down plenty." Snive yelled, causing Drew to click his teeth in frustration. "Bring it!"
"I've got your back, let's beat this guy." Spark stated, setting Dew down on the floor for him to rest before walking up next to Snive.
"No! You two stay out of this." Dew stated, forcing himself up and moving slightly in front of his friends. He reactivated his Razor Shell and shakily pointed it at Drew. Drew got further irritated upon seeing Dew getting back up.
"Stay down, you bottom feeding peasant." Drew growled.
"Dew, look at yourself. You gotta rest. We'll take care of this guy." Spark said, placing a paw on his shoulder in concern.
"Drew's not the first high and mighty noble I've dealt with and he definitely won't be the last. Sit back and chill while we beat this guy down." Snive stated, keeping a determined glare on Drew.
"I'm not letting this guy get away with disrespecting my master and especially Snive. He's going to pay for this." Dew stated with determination. Snive looked upon Dew, her heart skipping a beat again upon seeing his beaten yet driven figure and face. She shook her head again, still unsure of what these feelings were and decided to figure it out later. Right now, she needed to focus on beating this noble prick.
"Well, you're definitely dumb if you think you're fighting alone from now on, Dew-fus." Snive stated, stepping up next to Dew.
"Really, calling me that now?" Dew grumbled in annoyance.
"I think it's cute." Spark stated, stepping up to Dew's opposite side. "But she's right, we're all in this together, whether it has something to do with Wish Park or not."
"Guys…" Dew started, wanting to dissuade them but couldn't find reason to. "Alright, y'all won. Let's end this fight."
After saying this, the three looked towards their final opponent. Drew took a step back now seeing that he was outnumbered. He looked towards his lackeys; Brent was still knocked out while Oliver had woken up but was in no condition to fight given that he was struggling to get up. Clicking his teeth in frustration, Drew stood up as straight as
He could, trying to pretend that he wasn't injured.
"Hmm, of course you would need others to fight your battles for you." Drew insulted, getting a growl from Dew. "It's honestly no challenge anymore so I'll be taking my leave."
With that said, Drew turned around and began limping away.
"Hey!" Snive yelled, taking a few steps in front of the boys. "Don't you dare run away, coward! We're not done here!"
"We are for now my betrothed. I'll be seeing you back at the castle." Drew stated, turning back to her with a loving smile. "We'll be wed soon enough, no matter what you, the electric rat, or the bottom feeding orphan can do about it. Don't worry, my training will definitely form you into the perfect wife. Farewell for now, my princess."
Snive, Dew, and Spark looked towards a retreating Drew in anger, Oliver grabbing a still fainted Brent and struggling to carry him whilst following after Drew. Snive was about to give chase after everything Drew just said before she heard a thud sound behind her.
"Oh no, Dew!" Spark yelled as Snive quickly turned around, finding Dew on his hands and knees in pain.
"Shit." Snive cursed, dropping down to Dew's level to help him up along with Spark. Dew groaned as he stood up and leaned onto Sparks and Snive's shoulders.
Damnit, this is the last thing I wanted. Snive thought, feeling guilty as she looked upon Dew's hurt body.
"*groans* Bastard must've hit harder than I thought." Dew stated with a short laugh before groaning again in pain. "Kind of embarrassing that he got me to this point."
"Come on, let's get to the DATS and get to a doctor somewhere." Spark stated, Snive nodding as the two helped Dew move towards the DATS in the area. "Snive, you know any places nearby that we can go to?"
"The royal physician, my family's personal doctor. Hopefully they're free today." Snive stated. "Damnit Dew-fus, I'm not carrying your heavy butt next time you get into a fight."
"Trust me, after today, I'm gonna put in some serious training to make sure I don't get to this point again." Dew declared. "And please, I ain't that heavy, you just have weak muscles."
"You know what, I am feeling a bit fatigued. So fatigued that I might just drop you right now." Snive shot back at Dew's insult with a bit of venom in her voice along with an evil smirk.
"H-hey, kidding Snive. Please don't drop me." Dew stated quickly in slight fear. His reaction had gotten a giggle from Spark and a triumphant smile from Snive. "But I do need to get stronger. Don't want you carrying me out in the future."
"Not gonna stop us from helping you out in the said future, Dew. We're a team now." Spark stated. "That goes for you too, Snive."
"Huh, I guess we are a team now. Gotta make sure you boys stay on track." Snive stated after thinking about Spark's comment for a moment.
"Oh joy…" Dew stated with a pained laugh.
"Guys…" Snive started in a serious tone, getting the boys' attention. "While I'd rather have dealt with that asshole myself, I appreciate the back up."
"It's no problem. Just let us know if those guys cause you any more trouble, we'll set 'em straight." Spark stated with a smile.
"Yeah, especially that Servine. I'll be ready for him next time. For now though we gotta focus on fixing the Wish Park crisis." Dew said with determination. Snive smiled softly at the two, still finding the friendship she gained from these two kind of strange and sudden but was welcomed all the same. As she was thinkinging about the crazy adventures that they were going to bring into her life, another pained groan came from Dew had taken her out of her thoughts.
"Come on, let's hurry up so Dew can stop being so dramatic." Snive teased, earning a laugh from the boys before she and Spark quickened their pace to the nearby DATS.
[Another special episode done. Sorry it took so long, the phone I had been writing on decided to delete my recent work, causing me to lose a chapter and a half of the main story and two whole special episodes. Rewriting them has been a drain but I'm glad I got this one done. Be sure to check out my other stories, I recently made another Splatoon one shot and I'm still updating my reboot of Legends of Chima. Anyway, onto the outro
