smash_logs | a face-off! totally-not-kirby-like knight vs. froo-froo fairy!

Who: Meta Knight, Selene
What: SPARRING. IN THE NAME OF SMASH FUNDAMENTALS.
Where: The stadium
When: Thursday, October 28th
Warnings: Fighting, of course. 8U

The stadium. This place used to be the one she would beam at the sight of. Selene wasn't sure if that was exactly the case now.

As she entered, her mind repeated to her, It's only a spar. It's only a spar. It wasn't as if this was war or anything. It wasn't fighting filled with bad intention. It was just a spar for her class. So why, why oh why, did this feel so wrong?

Cyrus' teachings were reaching her, and they were reaching her strongly. Perhaps they were reaching her TOO strongly. Now she was just in a state of confusion over her morals. What was ever right or wrong anymore?

Meta Knight was her teacher. Surely there was reason for this. She couldn't let this hinder her grades. Yet something inside of her, somewhere deep, she felt that this wasn't the right thing to do.

Maybe she was following Cyrus too blindly, but she wasn't about to accept that as a possibility.

For now, she must wait and see where the fight takes her.

What...?? Meta Knight was too busy staring at that thing to notice Selene was also busy. Staring at it. Why in the world... Man he really needed to lend those Poke Balls back to Pokemon Center, especially if all they did was flop around.

Once it disappeared he stood there for a moment, still dumbfounded (gee I wonder if this has ever happened to him before (no)).

Well. WELL. That was just... really something. She hadn't even expected anything like that to pop up. How usel-

Selene's eyes then darted to something else that began to fall from the sky. That being a giant foot. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6wVEizLh-I#t=1m08s)

OH GOD IT WAS A GIANT FOOT and they had to dodge it. WOOSH went Selene.

She then fell flat on her face.

Dodge? What strange words to appear in the air...

"What is--" A FOOT. "Augh!" Man did that smart.

Whereas Selene made it out of the way, Meta Knight was very unceremoniously stomped on. And quite stuck in the ground. He struggled to free himself but ALAS, HE WAS STAYING THERE FOR A WHILE.

WHAT. Wow. That was just kind of bad. Selene just stood there, astounded. Well, he wasn't going to be moving from there. She'd honestly feel bad if she had to attack him now, but was it the right thing to do? Probably so. And so she-

-watched a ball drop from the sky? Oh yeah, that was a very special, golden ball. As she lifted it, she then realized that it was heavy and noises rattled inside. It had items! What could be inside? She didn't know.

There was only one way to find out. She tossed it. It lifted gently into the air, and with a triumphant fanfare, it busted open. A few items came from inside: a gooey bomb, a Super Scope, and a... what was that sword? It was glowing blue! Was that some kind of magical sword?

Selene peered curiously at it. What should she do? HMMM.

By now Meta Knight had finally freed himself from the depths of Foot-ville. ~~He would have nightmares for a week.~~ He dusted himself off and definitely eyed that blue sword. IT LOOKED NICE... His was totally nicer.

It was so nice, in fact, that once he regained his bearings he charged at her again!

Well, like it or not, she decided that this was going to wind up being a sword fight. Her wand stayed in her left hand, but now her right clutched onto the laser sword. Its energy whirred. Selene was ready.

She, too, charged, and swung her sword at him. The energy buzzed as it came down. This was magic she had no idea about, but she was really... comfortable with it all of a sudden.

Smash items sure were interesting.

"Ah, a swordfight?" FINALLY, something he knew better than giant feet and fish! Selene managed to smack him good with that sword and he fell backwards RIGHT ON THE GROUND. Meta Knight tried for a quick recovery, and then WHOOSH his sword was aflame! Wuh-oh.

As soon as he got up a giant stone block appeared between the two.

Chisel!

He stared at the block with a confused frown and then experimentally hit it with his sword. PIECES FELL OFF...? Fine okay he hit it again.

... Well. That was the strangest thing. Then again, it sure wasn't as strange as a giant foot coming to squash them. That was just strange and a little bit gross.

Selene took a cautious slice at the stone in front of her. Some stone chips fell right off from her attack, too. HM. WELL. She would just knock this down then. She kept on slashing it until it finally busted into little bitty rock pieces, which... disappeared pretty fast. ALL AS IF NOTHING HAPPENED. How odd.

Either way, that was out of the way. It was time. For. Destruc-

... Hello there, was that a mushroom? Well, it seemed pretty harmless. Maybe it'd have a nice effect. Selene ran into it and practically absorbed it.

She then shrank. Yes, she shrank.

Oh. God. SHE WENT RUNNING. Not out of the field- she wasn't willing to forfeit- but running to try to avoid any attacks. She didn't want to be smashed.

Gosh, that was peculiar. What were the chances that a mushroom like that would get mixed in with the others?

Would it even be fair to fight back when she was so tiny... WELL, WELL. NOT TO WORRY, DEAR READERS, BECAUSE ANOTHER ONE OF THOSE MUSHROOMS FELL RIGHT ON HIS HEAD! All right now it was time to get down to business. He ran at her and slashed a few times as quickly as he could.

Oh hey, that was a little more fair. Selene was still able to wield that laser sword, but not quite as well as she could at normal size. It didn't shrink along with her. Ha. Ha. Nice. Not really.

Those slashes hit her and damaged her, that was for sure, increasing her fatigue. She wasn't ready to back down yet, though. She swung down the laser sword, although awkwardly and slowly. She didn't even know if it would clock a hit.

W-WHOA OKAY he did not notice that laser sword was still actual size until it was too late. And by "too late" I mean "got smacked with the business end of it." MAN HE WAS TAKING WAY TOO MUCH DAMAGE. With many thanks to the magic of teeny-tiny mushrooms and pre-existing ouchies, he kind of flew halfway across the field.

Congratulations, Selene, you have a few seconds to do a victory dance before the mushrooms wear off!

VICTORY DANCE GET.

... OR NOT. Because now suddenly, another giant phrase popped up before them.

Don't move!

Selene definitely froze in her spot, her expression a bit surprised. UH. She couldn't move for a minute? Uh... okay then?

WHAT ANOTHER ONE GEEZ. Seeing as how he was sort of in the process of getting back up, he was maybe a little too late to see it. AND SO, he got up and stared at Selene like there was something severely wrong with her. WHY IS SHE...

Meta Knight inched towards her a little to BETTER INVESTIGATE-- oops he moved.
