Hidden Meanings

Just Give me a Reason[Part 1]

Something nudged Tsubasa Otori, and the silver-haired pushed himself into sitting postion, groaning as he did so. He glanced next to him, looking at the sleeping forms of Kyoya Tategami, Zeo Abyss, Toby, Nile, King, Dynamis, Yu Tendo, Hikaru, and Tithi.

"What the...?"He wondered, then someone tapped him on the shoulder. The golden eyed teen looked up.

A swordsman dressed in armor, one hand resting on the hilt of a golden double-bladed sword, was gazing down at him. He had spikey blue hair, tied with a blue bandana that matched the color of his armor. The swordsman had cobalt blue eyes, fierce but kind.

"Where are we?"Yu groaned, pushing himself up. His green eyes scanned the room, frightened, till they landed on Tsubasa. "Tsubasa!"The boy cried, tackling him in a hug.

"Tsubasa? Is that your name?"The swordsman tilted his head.

Tsubasa glanced up at him. "Yes, what is yours? Plus where are we?"

"The name's Ike, a swordsman at your service."Ike bowed formally. "This place, you ask? It's the S.S.B.B.W.R."

Yu cling onto Tsubasa's pantleg as the two stood up. "S.S.B.B.W.R?"

"Super Smash Bro's Brawl Waiting Area."Ike explained calmly, stepping back to they could see the whole room.

Super Smash Bro's Brawl? Didn't Una, Sarah, and Tess play that all the time? Ike...Ike...he was one of the characters! And of Tess' best...Tsubasa scanned the area(I actually am pretty good with Ike :D)

Kyoya growled, sitting upwards. "Hey, blue-head, where are we?"

Ike's eyes flashed, and so did Kyoya's as Ike's sword leveled at his neck. "I'll explain when all your...friends wake up."

Kyoya leapt to his feet, growling. "Friends?!I'm a lone lion!"

Tsubasa pushed Ike's sword away from the angry Leone user. "Hey, guys, we don't need you guys stabbing each other's throats out. Ike, meet Kyoya, Kyoya, meet Ike."

Kyoya's eyes clouded as he seemed to remember the name. "Ike?"

"Ike."Ike commfirmed, nodding. Suddenly, a burst of light began at the swordsman's feet, going upward, dissvolving his legs.

Yu's eyes widened. "Ikey(Nickname), you're dissvolving into light!"

Ike looked down, then saltued. "Ah, my time to fight. I'll see you guys in about 8 minutes."

Several flashes of light to Tsubasa's left made him look. A pokemon, Pikachu, was also dissvoling, along with a grey wolf in black clothling, and...was that...Mario?

"Una and Sarah played this all the time."Hikaru said, finally, giving up pacing and sitting down.

Dynamis nodded slowly, his dark blue eyes glinting. "They clearly know they're a video game-"

King felt someone rest a hand on his shoulder, and whipping around. Ike was looking at him, with a blue short-haired swordsman next to him.

"All your friends?"Ike questioned Tsubasa, and he nodded. He introduced everyone, eyes focused on the unknown warrior next to Ike.

Ike noticed his look. "Ah, this is Marth, one of the other fellow swordsmen. He speaks Japanese, mind you, but he understands English."

Marth's cold eyes flicked over the bladers. Hikaru shivered lightly under his gaze. He said something in Japanese, and Toby flinched.

Ike's eyes widened as Toby spoke back to Marth angrily. "He speaks Japanese?"
