I don't really take rivals. :o
WHAT SHALL HAPPEN TODAY? Read on and find out.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Ike: We’re in the MIDDLE OF NOWHEEEEEREEEEE!
MK: Calm down.
Ike: I CAN’T calm down, Meta Knight! Our entire building was blown up and we had to come HERE and I don’t know where we are and we’re separated and our lines are dead and, and—
MK: Calm. Down.
Ike: *deep sigh* Ok, ok, sorry.
Resetti: How I wound up with YOU TWO, I don't know, but I think we can at least look around and see where we are.
We are... somewhere... with grass!
Ike: No way.
MK: More specifically, it would seem that we are in the vicinity of the Forest. At least, the actual Forest seems to be nearby.
Ike: How'd we get all the way here from the main building?
MK: I don't know. Perhaps, though, we should head into the Forest. At the least, we can keep a lower profile there.
Resetti: Makes a lot of sense. Ike, you comin', kid?
Ike: I had better.
MK: Try to keep up.
(They all begin moving to the Forest.)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sheik: Any broken bones?
Samus: No.
Lyn: No.
Sheik: And no. So, we're all okay.
Samus: The O.F. isn't. My communicator's jammed.
Lyn: So is mine.
Sheik: And mine.
Lyn: At the least, we can tell where we are - the Jungle.
Sheik: Yeah... I don't have especially pleasant memories of this place. Say, are any of your digital maps and such working?
Samus: Well, it's operational, but all links to the O.F. are lost. In other words, all the maps and such from the O.F. are gone. As it would turn, THOSE were my "maps and such."
Lyn: Wonderful.
Sheik: Let me try to sum this up... we're lost in the middle of the Jungle and the O.F. has been totally wiped out.
Lyn: Yeah.
Samus: That's about it.
Sheik: Wonderful. Can our communicators pick up other O.F. members? After all, they're networked.
Samus: They were networked. With the rest of the O.F. building, the network's wiped out.
Sheik: Ah, yes.
(Silence pervades for a few moments.)
Lyn: So, then, I suppose we need to figure out what to do next.
Samus: Yes, quite.
Sheik: *reclines* I say we either start by gathering food or at least determining where we are in this Jungle.
Lyn: Let's go with the latter.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Cpt. Falcon: We're separated completely from everyone else, is that it? From our partners, resources... LOVED ONES...
Luigi: *sadly* Yes.
Cpt. Falcon: And where are we, exactly?
Luigi: I think-a... we are near the Lake Shore.
Cpt. Falcon: Ah. Well, naturally, I've been here before. I just hope we run into someone else to help out!
Are you SURE we can't get in touch with anyone else?
Luigi: Unless we scream... But no one might-a hear us.
Cpt. Falcon: Right... Well, Luigi, old boy, let's go look around.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Cpt. Falcon: Oh, GREAT. I think I see someone we know over there.
Luigi: Who?
Cpt. Falcon: Look through the bushes, guy.
(Through the bushes there is a body lying. It seems to be some pale shade of green with brown. Or something like that.)
Luigi: I cannot see the head, and without some kind of--
Cpt. Falcon: Identifying mark, we can't see who it is! Move some leaves around, huh?
Luigi: That might get their attention-a!
Cpt. Falcon: Just do it anyway!
(Luigi moves some of the leaves away to get a better peak at the body. Cpt. Falcon moves some himself and sees through...
It's his worst nightmare... of sorts.)
Cpt. Falcon: NOOOOoooo! How did GRAY FOX end up here?! And so close to us!!
Luigi: Captain, he's unconscious and needs assistance.
Cpt. Falcon: No, I have a better idea. How about... we leave him here?
Luigi: Captain!
Cpt. Falcon: He's pretty strong; he can help himself.
Luigi: Captain, I'm going to go check on him.
Cpt. Falcon: Don't do it! I don't like him; I don't want to help him; and I DON'T want him to... Wait a second. If he tags along with US, then he won't be able to find Sheik all by himself! Yeah! Luigi, let's hurry and help him.
Luigi: ?
All righty.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Snake: Anything happening?
R.O.B.: NOTHING.
Snake: So we're kind of stranded, then.
Marth: I think so. And I'd say we're near the Cave. Do you know your way around there?
Snake: Something like that, Marth. Let's just say that the Captain and I had an... adventure here once before.
Marth: So maybe we can hide in there? I mean, if the DL really is behind this, then we're probably going to be hunted.
Snake: Probably... Let's head on in.
Marth: Gotcha.
R.O.B.: OF COURSE.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
(A congregation of DL and Subspace persons is waiting on a platform just outside Tabuu's domain. Ganondorf is standing on a higher platform, about to deliver a message; Bowser is behind him.)
Ganondorf: Good morning, esteemed colleagues! It has been an age since we last met.
You all know why we are here, on the brink of a fiery revolution. Six months ago, the measly O.F. was able to take us down and banish the Subspace Army from the World, not to mention obliterate the Dudgeon League. Now, as I stand before you all, we have a little plan in motion - to bring ourselves up from the abyss and take revenge on our oppressors!
(The crowd cheers.)
Ganondorf: Behind me is the domain of Tabuu, the leader of this uprising. Believe it or not, we have thousands of soldiers still ready to fight with us - not to mention the Robotic Operating Buddies still being held inside Subspace.
(The crowd is surprised to hear this. It was assumed that the R.O.B.s were all destroyed.)
Ganondorf: Yes. Excellent, wouldn't you all agree?
We have already completed the first act of our strikeback - the O.F. main building is gone, with some hundred people dead and around 30 missing. The others building are now being deconstructed as well, don't you worry. Before long, our soldiers, and you all, will be back polluting the worlds and bringing the O.F. to its knees!
(The crowd cheers zealously.)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
(Captain Falcon and Luigi are dragging Gray Fox to the edge of the waters. They lay him down and try to get him to wake up.)
Cpt. Falcon: WAKE UP MAAAANN!
Luigi: He's a cyborg! How do we wake him up?
Cpt. Falcon: Trigger his sensors, maybe? I don't know!
Luigi: GRAAAAAAAY FOOOOOOOX!
Cpt. Falcon: WAAAAAAAAAKE UUUUUUUUP!
Luigi: WE NEED YOU TO- To?
Cpt. Falcon: What? What is it?
Luigi: Can you hear it?
Cpt. Falcon: Hear what?
Luigi: I think someone's singing - Look across the waters! I think there's a figure over there.
(Alas, there is a tall figure on the other side. Just as Gray Fox starts coming to, Captain Falcon pushes him into the water.)
Cpt. Falcon: Yeah, I think I see it...
Oops.
(Gray Fox surfaces.)
GF: You idiot.
Cpt. Falcon: I'M NO IDIOT!
Luigi: Ah, you're awake now! You were out for a while.
GF: System failure, I assume... Why are you two focusing on that point over there?
Luigi: We think there's someone standing on the other side.
GF: *looks*
It is a woman.
Cpt. Falcon: WHOA, IT IS?! Let me at 'er!
Luigi: But we don't know who it i--
GF: Daisy.
Cpt. Falcon: ...Oh, ho, ho!
Wait, maybe she can help us out! Unless she's lost, which I doubt.
GF: *climbs out of water* We should first establish our position instead of chasing women.
Cpt. Falcon: Oh, forget you!
GF: Our all of our communications and networking down?
Luigi: Yes; we're stranded out here in the middle of nowhere.
Cpt. Falcon: So let's ask someone who possibly knows where she is! Gah!
GF: I don't like it... but we have no other alternatives.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Oh, what’s to be the result of this? You’ll see!
