Chapter 2

It was the first night of the games, and surprisingly quiet. Link and Zelda found a large tree to hide in for the night at the base of the mountain they had ran for. Sitting together on the same branch and holding hands, they stared at the moon.

Soon the Capitol's anthem played, and the dead appeared in the sky. For now, it wouldn't be them.

"This seems the perfect time for you to say something amazingly romantic and cliche," Zelda said, smiling into Link's eyes and batting her eyelashes at him.

He shrugged. "Too bad. I've got nothing."

Zelda huffed and crossed her arms. "Way to ruin a moment, elf-boy!"

Link raised his eyebrows. "I could always kill you, you know. I'm the one with the sword."

"I'm the Goddess in human form!"

"Like I said before - I'm the one with the sword."

Zelda thought that over. She smiled.

"Forget what I said! The moment's not ruined at all!"

They went back to holding hands.

Tony Stark was strolling through the forest when horrible music blared from the sky.

"Oh, no!" he yelled. "You've gotta be kidding me! Play something good! Like, rock, or something!"

No response.

The music continued, and people's faces started showing up in the sky.

"Whatever," Tony Stark grumbled. "Cause no one listens to me! The hot, awesome, single, rich, amazing dude!"

All of a sudden, something fell on his head.

"Hey!" He bent down and picked it up. It was a little parachute thingy.

"What's this supposed to do?" he shouted at the sky. "Protect me when I fall off a cliff or something? It's kinda small!"

He then noticed a little capsule attached to it. He opened it, and there was a note.

Single?! YOU HAVE A GIRFRIEND! ME! Smart one!

                                -Pepper Potts

"Uh, yeah!" he said. "Sure! Right! You! I forgot.....I guess I'll have to stop seeing that Sarah girl, then......."

A heavy piece of shapeless metal dropped out of the sky and hit him on the head.

"OW!" he cried out. "What was that for?!"

He just barely dodged another falling capsule.

"Ok, fine! I'll shut up! Just don't drop things on my head any more!"

Nothing else fell.

"Phew," he breathed.

Eggman was wandering through the forest, looking for small, helpless creatures that he could scare into working for him.

"Where are all the bunnies and puppies and kittens?!" Eggman yelled, frustrated.

Just then, he saw a small, pink hedhog waddling around on it's cute, stubby little hedgehog legs. It tripped and fell over.

Eggman grinned. "Finally! This will be perfect! Plus, it will be fun to test on something that looks like Sonic."
