Hide 'n' Seek

"GUYS!!!" Lucas yelled. He and his closest friends were hanging out at a park. This park stood in the middle of Ultimatum. Almost directly in the middle actually. It was a large park, with water fountains, playsets, benches, gardens, and more.

"Dude....please, stop yelling," Toon Link pleaded. A simple look at the others told Lucas they wanted the same thing....for him to quiet down. Lucas cleared his throat.

"S-sorry..."

"What do you even want?" Young Link asked with a yawn. It was pretty close to sundown, right around the time most of them would be settled down in bed, just waiting for that drowsy feeling to hit them. Ness was the only one not entirely tired. He stood up and wrapped an arm around Lucas's neck.

"What is it, stud?" Ness asked.

"Well....I was wondering if y'all wanted to play Hide 'n' Seek?"

"Nope..." Mega Man said without hesitation.

"Why?"

"Because you always get uber intense when playing it."

"No, I don't."

"You kinda do," Ness pointed out. Lucas pouted and put on a sad face. Ness crossed his arms, fighting the urge to succumb to Lucas's sadness. The second Lucas activated his trap card....puppy dog eyes, Ness lost. He sighed before turning toward the others. "Come on, let's just play with him." Paula stood up.

"Ok...but you're paying for us," she said.

"Yeah yeah yeah, don't worry. I've got the money...one sec." Ness ran off to go pay for them. Lucas clapped his hands together with a smile.

"You sure do have some power over our baseball-loving boy." Lucas smiled as he rubbed the back of his neck.

"Y-you can say that." Claus, the most observant of their group, noticed Lucas had a blush that he was mostly able to hide. Claus leaned back and tapped his chin.

It didn't take long for Ness to return. "Alright, done," he said, "Everyone ready?" Everyone stood up from their seats. The players in Lucas's game of Hide 'n' Seek will be Lucas, Ness, Claus, Ninten, Toon Link, Young Link, Paula, Mega Man, and Ana. Everyone, having stood up, told Ness and Lucas that they were indeed ready. Lucas ran over to a water fountain and closed his eyes.

"Better go hide." Lucas started counting down from 1000. The others, reluctantly, ran to go hide. Lucas loved playing Hide 'n' Seek. It allowed a side of him to take control. The others weren't huge fans, however. They did it, for Lucas's sake alone. They knew that if Lucas's darker side came out, it'd be bad news. To make that dark side have more of a thrill, the entire city of Ultimatum was open to the game of Hide 'n' Seek. The players were even allowed to hide in places they normally wouldn't be able to. Certain people understood that Lucas needed this time to "cool off" so they allowed them into places normally closed off.

After a while, Lucas made it to the home stretch of his counting down. "3.....2......1....ready or not....." Lucas opened his eyes. His eyes turned a blood-shot red. He smiled, his mouth was also blood-shot red. He had an evil smirk as his arms and legs emitted a type of dark energy. "Here I come," Lucas's normally high-pitched and happy-go-lucky voice turned to a sadistic and terrorizing voice. He turned around and started his journey to find.....and kill his friends.

Lucas made it to Smash High. The large school was a perfect hiding spot. And he knew exactly who'd be hiding in this school. Mega Man. And he was correct. Mega Man was hiding in the cafeteria, behind a vending machine for water bottles. Once Lucas stepped into the school, Mega Man felt Lucas's aura, despite being on the very opposite of the school. This aura made the poor robot scared. "Oh, Mega Man!~ Come out come out wherever you are!!~" Mega Man gulped as Lucas's voice echoed through the school as if it was on a loudspeaker. Each of Lucas's steps shook Mega Man's world.
