Chapter 9: Mario

 

“Waario! Hah-ha-ha-haaa!” came the shout from the TV as the fat purple and yellow dressed character pulled out a VERY strange looking device.

 

“No fairs!!” Aku screamed at the screen, moving her controller to the side while rapidly pressing the buttons of the controller, as if that would someone help her. She only just managed to hit the ball and smacked it straight to the guy's nose, making the score forty-love. “YAHOOS!!!

 

“Just whose idea was it to put her behind that thing anyway!?” Envy demanded.

 

The others gave him one look. “Yours,” they chorused.

 

“…Shut up.”

 

Aku continued to pound away on the controller as she struggled to keep the ball in play. However, as she suddenly tapped the “Y” button, there was a shout of “Waluigi! Waaaaaaaaah!!” making the char she was controlling spin around and slam the ball to the other side of the field.

 

However, before Aku could celebrate, one of the opponents' chars transformed the racket into a giant hammer and slammed it right back. “MEEEEEH!!” Aku cried out, rushing to get it. However, her `friend' leaped forward and sent it away. However, because of that, the green spaghetti-eater was launched backward with skidmarks following its path. “Jerks!” Aku quipped angrily.

 

After that, Aku continued batting the ball back and forth, though at one point, her char fell face-first in the dirt trying to get the ball. “Nuuuuuuuuuuu!!” Aku whined, only seconds before her `partner-in-crime' pulled out a massive toy-hammer and slammed it back to the opponent. “YAY!!”

 

Al just watched it silently from where he sat, sitting backward on a chair with his arms on the back and his chin on his arms. The reason he was watching in silence, was because he did not want to face the blunt of her annoyance, again. She'd already whacked him to his head before, and once was enough. Small or not, those tiny fists packed a nasty punch, as said the bruise on his cheek.

 

And suddenly, there was the sound of someone saying “Game, Set and Match, Waluigi, Luigi.”

 

“YAAAAAAAAAAY!!” Aku shouted, shooting up and starting to run rapidly through the room in circles around Dante, then Solo, and then Envy. Envy tried to follow her movements, but had to spin around as well. Which resulted in him getting dizzy and landing on his bum.

 

Finally coming to a halt next to the console, she was grinning like a Cheshire Cat. “Ne ne neee! Yous wanna play along toos? We's can play `gainst each others!!”

 

Envy blinked, still a bit dizzy, but Al already held up his hand. “I'll join in,” he quipped, if only to avoid another hit to his other cheek.

 

“Yay!!”

 

Solo grinned and held up a hand. “I'm in! I feel up to beating the palmtree into a pulp.”

 

“WHA?!” Envy shot up from where he had been seated on the ground. “Who the he--”

 

“Watch your language,” Dante said before he could finish. Envy glared.

 

“Well why don't you--”

 

“Oh, is that the phone?” Dante suddenly asked exasperatedly. “Be right back.”

 

Before anyone could comment, the whitehead was out of the room. Envy stood with his mouth open mid-word for a moment longer, before he snapped his jaw shut. Solo laughed. “Looks like you got no choice, mate.”

 

Envy just slumped. “Why me?”

 

 

 

“Whose idea was it to put those two on the same team?!” Envy shouted, struggling to catch the ball, but missing it. “GAH!!”

 

“YAY!!” Aku cheered, high-fiving Solo, who was grinning like mad.

 

“Nice one!” he quipped.

 

Al pouted, getting the blonde princess he was controlling to return the serve Solo gave with that annoying white puff. However, he missed it, as he moved a little too much to the left. “Uh… oops…?”

 

Envy looked about ready to strangle the blonde at that point. “Double yay!” Aku chirped as Solo laughed.

 

The score was now: Game: 40 - 0, Set: 3 - 0.

 

“Alright, that's IT!!” Envy hissed, cracking his knuckles and serving with the brown-haired princess he had picked (though he was seriously regretting that now). “Kid gloves are OFF!!”

 

“…You dun wear gloves.”

 

“SHUT UP!!!”

 

 

 

“Ah, whatever.”

 

“I lost? How could I lose?”

 

“YAY! Waluigi numba one!”

 

“Hihihihihihihihi!”

 

Envy grumbled angrily, glaring at the screen.

 

“Triple yays!” Aku chirped happily, still sitting comfortably between Solo's legs under the chair he had pulled up somewhere during the fourth set. “We's win! But yous two look cute losing.”

 

Envy held up a hand. “You have to the count of five to tear the hell out of here.”

 

Solo grinned. “Well, you do.”

 

“You too, then. Five.” He put down one finger.

 

“HIDE AND SEEKS!!” Aku screamed, leaping to her feet and speeding out of room, dashing right underneath Dante's legs as he reentered the room, making him yowl.

 

“Envy's it!!” Solo agreed and rushed out past the whitehead, nearly laughing his head off as Al was quick enough to follow.

 

Dante blinked, several times, before looking to a very angry-looking Envy, sitting next to the console. “Not a word, Dante,” Envy growled out, pointing at him. “Not a fucking word.”

 

The whitehead resisted the urge to snicker.

 

 

 

Mario Tennis

 

Aku = Waluigi

 

Solo = Boo

 

Envy = Daisy

 

Al = Peach

 

 

 

“DOH!!” Aku quipped as her cart spun round and round, before she was back on track, trying to drive in a straight line, then crying out as she went tumbling into the freezing water by a speeding blur of green, white and red with white polka-dots. “Hey no fairs!”

 

Envy grinned as he shot past the skating Shyguys, and into the next tunnel. For once; he was winning. But then again, he'd managed to get a star. His chars were still a bit weird though (a ghost and frickin' houseplant), but they could get all powerups, which was a plus.

 

“HEY!!” he shouted when he was shot by a red shield just as his star wore off. While he was still recovering from the blow, with the plant hanging off the back of the cart, a set of mushrooms zoomed past in a blue car. “Damn you, Solo!!”

 

“Like it's my fault I have good timing!” Solo laughed, activating his special powerup, allowing the cart to go extremely fast. It stopped short off the diabolic duo in the spiked cart, though. “Ah bugger…”

 

Dante just smirked. “Missed me. Oh, catch.”

 

“GYAH!!” Solo growled as he got a spiked shield to his head. “Ow, that had to hurt…”

 

“That's gotta be the tenth this round!” Envy complained, grumbling something about cheaters, just before he ran smack into a bomb. “GACK! HEY!!”

 

Aku giggled as she zoomed past him. Envy growled, before he smirked and tapped X. The girl yipped when she got a red shield to the back of her cart, sending her spinning over and over a few times, allowing Envy to pass her.

 

They had been busy carting for quite a while already; after Envy had hunted down Aku and nearly killed her with his fingers alone. After all, it's rather hard to breathe when you're laughing your lungs out, ne? He had to stop when Solo said Aku was looking a little `blue', for a Demon.

 

Suddenly, Envy blinked when Dante's cart zoomed past. “Hey what the??”

 

“Yo. Missed me?” the whitehead chortled.

 

Solo gaped, before he mumbled: “He's ahead of us by a lap?! When'd that happen!?”

 

Aku pouted, before she launched the item she had gotten.

 

“GAH!!”

 

“MEEP!!”

 

“WHOA!!”

 

“Sweetness!”

 

The reason for that? Aku launched a blue shield and blew up herself, Envy and Dante. Solo was spared the trouble, having been in front of them for quite a distance. But by the time he had made it to the site, Dante had already zoomed over the finish line.

 

“Grr…” Solo growled, a little before he too shot over the finish for the last time. And then it was a matter of waiting for the final two drivers.

 

It was a neck-on-neck race for a long time, but Envy used a turbo boost just before the finish, sending him over it first. Aku pouted sadly as Envy cheered that (at least) he wasn't last.

 

“I'm back!” Al suddenly called out as he shut the door behind him, carrying a number of grocery bags in his arms. “Boy… that was scary…”

 

Aku looked up and smiled. “Presents!” she quipped.

 

“Gah!!” Al instantly ran off, with one very hyper Demon on his tail, whilst the others were laughing at his predicament. “No! This isn't for you!”

 

However, Al hadn't counted on the strength in Aku's legs, and yowled when Aku slammed into his back, sending him, and the bag, sprawling to the ground. Aku sat on his back and looked at the contents of the bag which was now sprawled all around.

 

“Heeeey… where're my presents?” she whined with a pout.

 

 

 

Mario Kart Double Dash

 

Aku = Wario & Waluigi

 

Envy = King Boo & the Plant (??)

 

Solo = Toad & Toadette

 

Dante = Bowser & Bowser Jr.

 

 

 

“What the HELL do I need a Mini-Mushroom for!?” Envy demanded as the small mushroom was added to his inventory. “How's that gonna get me to the Star!?”

 

Aku just giggled, as it was her turn. Okay, so she was last, but she didn't much care. She ended up on a blue pad, getting three more coins to her total. As the four players watched as it was determined whom had to fight whom at the next minigame, they tapped their fingers while waiting.

 

And three out of four paled when they saw they had to go against Dante. Not that that was a bad thing, but Dante was pretty good at most of the games that were played like that. They waited for a moment as the game was then selected, and then gulped.

 

“Uh-ohs…” came Aku's small voice.

 

 

 

Less than a minute later, there came the sound of Envy, Aku and Al letting out simultaneous sounds of surprise as their balloons were popped and their characters sent flying across the arena. Dante just chuckled as Bowser roared in victory within the spiked ball he was in.

 

“That didn't take long,” he quipped.

 

“That was NOT funny!!” Envy screamed.

 

“I thought it was,” Dante replied.

 

Whatever Envy was planning to retort with, it was cut off by a massive explosion that sent everyone in the room tumbling over a couple of times.

 

 

 

Mario Party 4

 

Aku = Wario

 

Envy = Yoshi

 

Al = Mario

 

Dante = Bowser

 

 

 

“Hey! We're closed!” Dante shouted as they arrived downstairs. And just as they did, Dante stopped dead. “A-Atrocia! What are you doing here?!”

 

Envy peeked around Dante and choked. Standing there was the dark Demon Twin they had met earlier that day. However, this time, she was accompanied by someone he had not expected. Standing behind her legs, was a little boy about 11, 12 years, with a set of blazing red eyes and dark, messy locks hanging about his face, the left side mussed up, the other almost smooth.

 

The woman, Atrocia he guessed, allowed a broad grin. “Who, me?” she quipped icily, chuckling. “Wouldn't you like to know…”

 

Envy frowned, and then he found himself flung across the room, smashing hard into the wall. Dante was about to shout out, only to be flung up against the ceiling with a yowl. Solo made to speak, but then he screamed in agony and flung his arms around his waist as he dropped, body writhing in pain. Al was going through about the same, only he was clutching his head in absolute pain.

 

Aku was the only one spared as she had managed to dive behind a couch, whimpering softly.

 

Gritting his teeth in pain, Envy tried to figure out what happened. He choked when he saw the boy's eyes alight like a pair of jack-o-lanterns.

 

“What… the… hell… is…this?!” Dante grunted out, trying in vain to move.

 

“I'd love ta stay and chat…” Atrocia said, walking into the room, the small boy grabbing hold of her hand as he followed silently. “But I'm afraid I have more important business, half-blood.”

 

Envy's eyes shot toward Dante in surprise. “H-half-blood?!”

 

The last thing Envy heard was the cracking sound his own skull made as it collided with the wall, rendering him unconscious.

Nightmare: “BRAT”?!?! WHY YOU LITTLE SON OF A!!!

 

Envy: GAH!! *runs away from Nightmare as she chases after him*

 

Solo: *blinks*

 

Dante: …But seriously, who was that kid?

 

Zeal & Miranda: … *look at each other*

 

Zeal: *turns and calls* Maeryn!

 

“Boy”: *walks over silently* … *cocks head as if to ask “What?”*

 

Zeal: Okay, this *places hands on boy's shoulder* is Maeryn. Night's kid.

 

Solo: Oh. Well, nice to meet ya.

 

Maeryn: ……

 

Miranda: He says `ello. ^^

 

Dante: …Did he say “hello”?

 

Miranda: No. He said `ello, but that's pretty close. ^_^

 

Zeal: Speaking of which, where's--

 

“Girl”: BANZAI!! *tackle-glomps Maeryn*

 

Maeryn: GAH!!

 

Solo & Dante: O.o??

 

Zeal: …Guys, this is Amalia. She's my kid.

 

Amalia: *perks up and smiles* Ohayo!! *waves*

 

Dante: Uhh…

 

Miranda: Should we go see if Envy's okay?

 

*distant scream*

 

Zeal: … Don't bother. Night's already got `im.

 

Dante: And you're not gonna help?

 

Zeal: Nope.

 

Dante: -.-;
