"OH BUT WHO WOULD EVER GIVE ME A SECRET RIDDLE?!" Marth yelled.
"It was probably Roy or something... Besides, I think four other people got them, too." Peach said.
"Guys, we all got one. My bet is on Marth." Lucina muttered.
"IT WASN'T ME, ASSHAT! Oh my god I am so sorry I'm just stressed." Marth whined, flopping onto the couch. Lucina didn't even flinch at the name.
"Guys," Palutena walked in the room. "I'm sure it's just some Christmas game. Besides... no fan has our address."
"Oh we aren't supposed to do that?" Peach asked.
The other three glared at Peach.
"Peach..."
"Yes?"
"Did you give someone our address?"
"NO."
The other three sighed. "Anyway, Marth. What does your riddle say anyway?" Palutena asked as she set some tea down for her and Lucina.
"It says..." Marth grabbed his card.
"When the time of 12 strikes goes off on day eight, go to the mall, and stay there until 11.
When 11 comes, go to her favorite store, center.
Don't fret, someone had your exact same riddle. Don't go alone."
"I'm honestly shocked." Palutena said.
"I told you it was scary." Marth whined. "But what riddle did you guys get?"
"Well..." peach mumbled. "Oh, Marth we have the same thing
"Sis, really?!"
"Yes!!"
The two both squealed.
Palutena decided to read hers.
"You and I both no very well you lied.
It's fine.
As long as you do what's instructed.
Go to the place where you reside to at dawn, tell them your name.
The rest is up to you."
...
"This is some creepy shit."
"WELL, DUH!"
The group continued to argue blah blah blah. Oliver skipped into another room, annoyed by the loud noise that was his owners yelling.
Eventually, they all calmed down, now seated next to each other on the couch with re-runs of old 80s movies playing on the TV. They called the rest of the squad, and apparently everyone else got a riddle too. They all decided to set out to solve their mysteries first thing in the morning, finishing the discussion and proceeding to start getting ready for bed.
~~~
"Hey Daisy?"
"Yes Pit?"
"Since we have the same riddle almost, kinda, can we do this together? I'm scared if this is actually one of those horror movie set ups."
Daisy chuckled. "Of course, Pit. Now go get some sleep so you won't be grumpy in the morning."
Daisy watched as Pit ran to his room as Roy stepped in the second after.
Daisy smiled. "Are you gonna play your riddle? I read yours... it seemed kinda obvious."
"Yeah." Roy replied. "Go to the mall. That's literally the only thing on here."
"Weeellllll, I think Peach and Marth have to go too. You should just ride with them!"
"At risk of becoming deaf from their high-frequency squeals? I don't think so!"
Daisy scoffed. "Chill out. You see them everyday anyways, knuckle head." Daisy walked out of the room and ruffled his hair.
"O-okay."
~~~
"THE ICE RINK?!"
"YES! NOW YOU AND ROBIN STOP COMPLAINING!"
Ike, Shulk, and Robin were at an ice rink inside the mall, putting on their skates with the occasional Shulk raising his foot so high it almost kills the other two men.
"What are we looking for?"
"Green."
"What?!"
"It just says a green paper."
"On the ice rink?!"
"Who do you think we are, Ike—"
"BOTH OF YOU SHUTUP!" Ike screamed, causing some people to look at him.
"My last two brain cells are shaking". Shulk murmured.
"Okay, we're done! Let's go, Gay and Gayer."
~~~
"Coffeee shop..." Palutena muttered. It was the only place she could think of. She goes there every morning, so it had to be this. She sat down, deciding not to wait in line just yet.
Instead, she tested herself.
'So if girls are my thing... would I be attracted to at least ONE in this cafe?'
Palutena discretely averted her eyes from every girl to the next. It was weird. Not one of them were as pretty as.... the girl. Pat then decided to get up and order.
The barista didn't look at her right away, but when she did, she gasped and quickly scrambled for something.
The Barista handed Pat a green tea frap with a flag poking out of it.
"Thanks." Palutena muttered as she went to sit back down at her table. She examined the flag.
"Of course it's a rainbow flag."
Palutena snatches the flag and examined it in her hand.
And of course, text on the back of the flag read:
Go to the mall.
~~~
Let's summarize. So, everyone's riddle ended them up at the mall. Some had to stay there all day, some had to scavenge around the town to get there. Soon enough, everyone stood in front of a Forever 21, also right next to a 'come meet Santa' set up.
"So we have three more minutes until 11:00." Daisy declared.
"Two minutes, now." Palutena corrected.
"Heheh, Ike, look." Roy whispered. Ike looked to where Roy was pointing to see a Game Stop filled with people buying a certain game. The two men grinned at each other.
"GUYS ITS ALMOST TIME!"
"Peach, don't scream in the mall." Zelda hushed.
"WAIT WHERE'S MARTH?!"
"Probably buying a Starbucks."
"BUT—"
"We're just gonna have to do it without him, Peach!"
"OH, THAT WON'T BE A PROBLEM."
The group turned to the Santa station to see the 'Santa' sitting in a rolling chair with his back turned to the group. When the Santa turned around,
"Marth, you fricking idiot."
Marth flaunted over to the group with his Santa suit on, carrying a latte in one of his hands.
"Hi friends!"
"Marth what's going on..." Ike muttered.
"Well," Marth walked over to fix one of the decorations as he spoke. "I had to get you bums off your couches!"
"You couldn't take us shopping with all that money you have??"" Pit asked.
"Haha, no!"
Marth clapped his hands, and suddenly several people came out dressed as waiters handing each person a brownie in a bowl with ice cream on top. Marth grinned.
"FOOD!"
"But there's more!"
Marth grabbed a random rope dangling out of nowhere and pulled on it.
Red, green, and white confetti spilled on everyone. Some of them cheered but a select few groaned.
"Marth, what's this about?"
"Because! This is the official announcement,
that when the new year comes,
The entire Smash Bros roster will be taking a trip to Hawaii!"
~~~
