Oh goody, another chapter! YING!
(Gray, Theo, and Joey's room)
Gray sighed. Maybe that had been an overeaction... But that didn't make the rule any less ridiculous. Preventing any video game character from entering the real world just because they had a lot of fans? Yeah, Gray wasn't buying it.
Jeez, how many vague or maybe not so vague references to Youtubers can I make in this story?
Crash!
Gray shot up from his bed and drew his sword, but nothing around him seemed damaged. The noise had seemed so close, though.
"THAT DAMN FOURTH WALL!"
Gray jumped. Who was that? It was a female, definitely, and around her twenties, maybe, but... there was no other distinguishing feature.
"Ever since yesterday it has been crashing like crazy and it's driving me nuts!"
"Did someone mention meeeee?" A sing song voice rang through Gray's head.
"No, Crazy Hand! NO ONE EVER MENTIONS YOU!"
"Well, they shooould! I'm amAAAAAzing!"
"SAID THE PERSON WHO WRECKS THE MANSION NINETY-NINE PERCENT OF THE TIME!"
"Well, then who's the other 1%?" Said a third person whom Gray realized as Toon.
"YOU!"
"B-but Zelda!"
"No 'buts'! You damn well know that you blow up Link and my room with you're experimental bombs! Flying bombs, rocket bombs, lightning bombs... What is your obsesion with bombs?!" Zelda asked angrily.
"They explode! Just like your temper..." Toon added quietly, but of course Zelda heard.
"Excuse me?! That's it, go to your room!" Zelda demanded.
"Wha- you're not my mom!" Toon argued.
"I damn well might be!" Zelda retorted.
"I beat you up in matches! WITH A SWORD!" Toon said, also now shouting.
"IT'S A FRIENDLY COMPETITION!"
"A friendly competition WHERE YOU LAUNCH PEOPLE TO OBLIVION!"
"WRONG GAME WORLD!"
"YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN!"
Gray flinched for the nineteenth time. Family arguments like these always made him feel awful, even if he took no part in them.
But then he realized... didn't he break the fourth wall? Yeah, that crash can't have been a coincidence, considering it happened just after a vague reference to a Youtuber he liked. In... a non-sexual way.
But thankfully, he was freed from having to listen to the two Zelda characters bicker as Theo and Joey walked into the room, clearly talking about something.
"So, Smash Bros., Mario Kart 8, or Hyrule Warriors?" Joey asked.
"You know I don't like any of those games." Theo protested. "How about Yoshi's Wooly World?"
"I thought that wasn't out yet?" Gray interupted.
Joey turned to him and paused. "Yeah, I thought so to. But if you remember correctly, it, as of today, September 13, 2015, is released everywhere but USA. I guess by everywhere but USA it even refers to alternate dimensions."
Gray flopped down on his bed. "Ugh. I still think that's BS. It has an english translation. It's fully developed and released in multiple places, and shipment isn't a problem, because you can download it straight from the eShop. At least, you should be able to. But no! It's never going to be released, is it?"
Suddenly, Gray shot up as he remembered something.
"Theo, Joey..."
The two paused, the game room door ajar.
"It's about time I explained everything."
"Like?" Theo asked skeptically.
"How I knew exactly where the mansion was, how we survived that fall into a lake, all of it." Gray elaborated.
"Finally!" Joey exclaimed angrily, but his face told a different story. "I've been waiting for this ever since I woke up!"
"Well..." Gray chuckled, "It's a long story. Take a seat." Gray said, patting the bed on either side of him.
"Woah. Deja vu." (1) Theo said, sitting down.
"Okay, so - " Gray began. "It all started with this voice in my head..."
Okie dokie, nice job crew! Sorry for the lack of activity - youtube and all that. I really don't have much else to say, and neither does anyone else, right!?
:Gray: ...Uhhh... no.
Good. See you next time in
A SMASHING ADVENTURE!
