I own nothing!

(P.S- This may turn into a Lucina x Marth.)

Chapter 1: Danger

Prince Marth just got back from Altea, returning for the latest installment of Super Smash Bros. He had checked in at the front office and was now making his way to his dorm. His passed by all the Smashers, waving as he passed by. It feels so good to be back. I know Jeigan will do well with Altea while I'm gone. He thought to himself as he opened the door to his dorm to see a familiar mercenary already in there. "Aiku! Hi!" Marth called out as Ike turned and smiled.

"Hello Prince Marth. How have you been?" he replied as Marth shrugged and collapsed on his bed.

"Politics. I'm running a kingdom now." he sighed to no one in particular before sitting up again. "Have any new Smashers come?"

"Um...I believe that two new Smashers came with Pit, and I don't know anyone else." Ike shrugged as Marth smiled before looking towards the door. "What is it?" Ike asked as Marth stood up and opened the door to see three Smashers outside the door.

"Hi." he smiled as one of females turned and stared at Marth. Same blue eyes, same midnight blue hair. She smiled shyly as she nudged the other two Smashers and they looked at the prince.

"Hello. You must be Prince Marth," the other female smiled as Marth raised one of his eyebrows out of curiosity and smiled.

"Well yes. Did Master Hand tell you about me?"

"Yes. I'm Princess Lucina, and these two are Robin and Reflet." Lucina smiled as she and Marth shook hands before Marth gave them a minute.

"And this is Ike." he smiled as he shoved the mercenary to the front and he waved. "So are you guys just looking around or do you need help?"

"No, Master Hand just wanted us to meet you two, being you two were the only Fire Emblem characters." Reflet shrugged as Ike came in.

"So you guys are from Fire Emblem as well?" he asked as the three of them nodded. Ike looked at Marth, but he found himself staring into Lucina's eyes. Only then did he notice the symbol in her eye.

"What is that?" he asked as he got closer to get a better look, trying not to be impolite.

"It's the Brand of the Exalt. My father and my cousin have one as well." Lucina smiled as she looked at Marth's sword.

"What kind of sword is that? I've never seen anything like it." Lucina stated in awe as Marth unsheathed his sword and stared into the red gem.

"Falchion."

"Really?" Lucina asked as she unsheathed her sword. "This is Parallel Falchion."

"Wow. It's looks so different though," Marth stated before Reflet pushed Lucina outside and Ike pushed Marth inside.

"Sorry to interrupt the chat, but Marth really needs to get prepared for tonight." Ike chuckled as Marth and Lucina waved goodbye before Ike slammed the door.

"What was that for?" Marth asked as Ike handed him his sword.

"Did you forget about the opening ceremony, or is it that you don't want to do it now?" Ike asked as Marth groaned and flopped down on his bed.

"I forgot," he mumbled as he sat back up and buckled his sword to his hip.

"Alright then, we need to go and find the others."

Marth and Ike walked down the hallway of the mansion, waving to other Smashers as they passed. Marth, being his usual cheery self, he waved as we walked along, though he frequently looked back, and soon enough, the indigo-haired mercenary started to notice. "Marth? Are you alright? You keep looking back."

"What? Oh, it's nothing," Marth shrugged as Ike stared at him for another moment they kept walking.

"Alright," he started before pushing Marth in front of him. "You're walking in front of me."

"Whatever," Marth started before he risked taking another look back. "It's nothing, honest."

"Alright Marth. I believe you." Ike smirked as he knocked on the door and the brown-haired angel answered.

"Hey guys. We were waiting for you two to arrive. Master Hand says that we should start heading down now." Pit replied as he gestured someone from inside the door, and out came the dirty blonde haired elf. He waved, the two bluenettes returning the wave with a smile from Marth and a head nod from Ike. The four heroes walked in silence as they passed through the main corridors, but one in particular was deep in thought. I don't know what it is about her but...she so...I don't even know. She's just perfect, and she has such an amazing backstory. And it's another royal that I can relate with. That hasn't happened since... Then he stopped before turning again. Something's off here. He looked back on at his friends, who had started a small conversation a few feet ahead of him. I looked back once more before jogging forward to meet up with his friends. "So Marth," the angel had started, snapping the young prince out of his daze. "Have you met anyone else so far?" With that comment, Ike started to laugh to himself.

"That's part of the reason we were late," he laughed a little louder before Marth elbowed him in the rib and smiled.

"I met new Fire Emblem protagonist. Two twin tacticians named Robin and Reflet, and a princess named Lucina. Have you met anyone else?"

"Besides Lady Palutena and Pittoo? I've met Mega Man, and I think that's about it."

"Who's Pittoo?" Marth asked curiously as he tried his best to stifle a laugh. Pittoo. How ridiculous is that?

"Well, he's technically Dark Pit, but Lady Palutena and I call him Pittoo. You know, like Pit #2...Pit-two," he sighed at the corny joke as Marth couldn't help but laugh.

"I couldn't imagine a dark version of you," Ike started before Pit looked at him.

"Trust me...You'll know him when you see him."

"We should get going now. We don't want to keep Master Hand waiting." Link sighed as the four picked up their pace, though Marth fell behind the others. "Marth," Ike called out as Marth picked up his pace, though Ike stopped him all together. "What's going on with you?" he growled as Marth averted his gaze.

"It's nothing Aiku, honest. I'm just a little out of it today. I'll be fine though. We should hurry. We want to be ready if we want to set up." Marth finished as we ran ahead and into the training area. I can't tell him about this feeling. He can't know.

Marth sat in the waiting area alone, waiting for Master Hand to give him the cue to start the Welcoming Brawl between him and his friends. The others were out training, but Marth denied the request and went to clear his mind, though the feeling wouldn't shake away. Someone's here. I know it. Someone who's not a Brawler. Maybe I should go look. "Prince Marth!" someone had called to him before he snapped his head up and smiled.

"Princess! What are you doing here?" Marth asked as he stopped and greeted Lucina.

"You can just call me Lucina."

"Then you can just call me Marth." he laughed shyly before Lucina finished.

"I came looking for you. Your friends were wondering where you were. They said that Master Hand was ready for you."

"Oh, thanks Lucina."

"What are you doing anyway?"

"It's an opening brawl, just entertainment for the newcomers like you and your friends." he replied before he started to walk back.

"I'll be rotting for you," Lucina said softly as Marth turned and blushed before walking back up and grabbing her hand.

"Thank you milady." Then he kissed the back of her hand, causing her to blush as well. "See you around."

"Alright. I'm ready now." Marth sighed as he walked in.

"It took you long enough. We thought you were going to have to drop you out." Pit laughed as Marth smiled.

"It's nice to see you again Prince Marth." Master Hand said as Marth nodded his head and unsheathed his sword. "Are you ready?"

"As ready as I'll ever be. Let's do this for the newcomers." Marth smiled as he walked onto his teleporter, the others following closer behind. Marth heard a countdown from the arena, and he felt a gust of wind blow around him before he was teleported to the arena by a warp circle, as was Ike, who ended up on the top platform of Battlefield. When he heard "Two", he positioned himself to attack above and start with Ike. On "One", he was ready to charge at the mercenary. And on started, he jumped up and lunged forward, though Pit beat him to it. He jumped in front of the Altean prince and hit Ike, who already had a counter set up to deflect the first attack that came to him. Out of instinct, Marth set up his counter as well and deflected Ike's counter with his own. The mercenary was sent backwards, though not very far with his low amount of HP. "Nice try Marth. But that won't stop me," Ike grunted as he charged at him again while Marth was trying to deflect all of Link's attacks. The indigo-haired, twenty-year old slashed at the prince back, causing him to lower his defense and get hit by Link as well. He was sent flying past Ike and gripped the edge of the stage before he could fall. The crowd let out a collective gasp as Marth pulled himself up and jumped forward towards Pit, who had his back to him, watching from above. "Better pay better attention Pit." Marth laughed as he used his meteor-smash and sent Pit to the ground. He quickly got up and grabbed the prince before sending him to the ground as well. He laid there for a split second before getting back up and using an stronger attack to send Pit flying, resulting in a KO.

The battle continued for about four more minutes, meaning there was roughly a minute left. The brawl was tied between Ike and Marth, both having about five KO's and two falls. They each had the same amount of HP and the battle was coming to an end. Marth knew he had to finish out the battle, but something in the back of his mind was preventing him from doing so. I can't think about that feeling right now. I need to focus on beating Ike. He grunted in an effort to hold back Ike's relentless attacks, but his mind was on defense. He let his guard down and Ike hit him with a smash attack, sending him off the stage with a KO, just as the clock hit zero. A buzzer sounded as Marth hopped off his teleporter and stood by a clapped for Ike. What's going on with me? How did I slip up like that? "Marth?" Ike asked once he had done his victory pose and walked away.

"Yes Aiku?"

"What happened to out there? You were focused one minute, and the next, you let your guard down." he started before he gripped the young prince's shoulders. "What's gotten into you Marth?" Right then and there, the young prince burst. He shook his head and faced the mercenary.

"Alright Aiku. I'll tell you the truth."

Hio! I'm sorry I couldn't write. I had writer's block and I couldn't think of anything. But I'm back now.

Hope you enjoyed! See u guys l8tr!
