AN: Hello, Kirby fans. This is my first Kirby fic and it will tie in with a few more fics I have. Anyways, I'll include basic and background information on the clans/species of Star Warriors that appear in this fic. Also, Fright to the Finish does not affect this. I know Kirby fights the Nightmare boss but I haven't seen it, yet.
A few other things. This fic is AU. It's close to the real thing, but, technically, it's AU. Leave. Me. Alone. The reason why is because I created Clans. Here is the info on them. You don't have to read them now, as it's not really important, but it might help a tad.
Star Warrior Clan Names
In my version of Kirby, the Star Warriors are in clans. There are 7 clans. Here is a listing in order they formed with an example.
1. Star (Kirby)
2. Rainbow (Donokbe)
3. NightMare (Black Kirby)
4. Moon (Meta Knight)
5. Sun (Blade Knight/Sword Knight)
6. Cloud (Strife)
7. Geo Storm (Rajiim)
Star Warrior Titles
In addition, there are special titles of Star Warriors. Their titles depend on certain circumstances. They are listed below with an example.
1. Fighter – SW who has mastered all fighting styles. (Fighter Joe)
2. Elemental – SW who has mastered all elements and a form of magic. (Arion)
3. Necrosi – SW who practices Dark magic. (Dakron Shai - OC)
4. Biokin – SW who practices Light magic. (Lithrel Suna - OC)
5. Aetherian – SW who is a master of all magic, fighting, and elements (The Celestial Warrior - Fusion)
Star Clan Base of Evolution
The Star Clan is the original Star Warrior Clan. Eventually, most of them evolved. Only a few were pure Star. Now, there is only one survivor. His name is Kirby. The Star Clan has all copy abilities except the Omega Copy Abilities of other Clans.
Moon Clan - The Royal Clan
The Moon Clan is the royal one. They rule over the rest of the Clans. The highest imperial line of the Moon Clan, the bloodline of the monarchs themselves, is now mixed with Sun Clan blood. Meta Knight is this one. He gave up his position as the king to fight the SW/M War. Now that the Star Warrior number is dwindling, he seeks to rejoin the clans. The Moon Clan only has OCP's and the weapon/element series of Copy Abilities.
Sun Clan - Wisest Clan
The Sun Clan is one of the rare Clans that are thriving. They are very good with blades and tend to have 4-6 strapped to their back. Like their closest related clan, the Moon Clan, they only have OCP's and weapon/element Copy Abilities.
Cloud Clan - Blader Clan
The Blader Clan, as they are sometimes referred to as, is the ultimate warriors with a blade. Somewhere on their person, is a blade of some sort. They have 10 blades, typically. They are great with the element attacks. The Cloud Clan only has the OCP's and weapon/element copy abilities.
Geo Storm Clan - Divided Clan
The Geo Storm clan is made up of two sects. The Geomin and the Storm sect. They originally were one clan, the Force clan, but gradually, they became too divided in their beliefs. So, they became two sects. The ones still in tune with nature became the Geomin sect. The ones who "freed" themselves from nature and went into machinery, weaponry, etc. became the Storm sect. The children determine their interests along the way and join which sect they choose.
A) - Geomin Sect - Nature Sect
The Geomin Clan is the one Clan that is in tune with nature. They are strong and solid like stones. The masters are well known for changing into the elements of Nature and even fly without any help! They say that they control gravity to a degree and the wind. Whether this is true or not, we have not confirmed.
B) - Storm Sect-Soldier Sect
The Storm Clan is an offshoot of the Rainbow Clan. After a while, they evolved into their own Clan by separation. They were still fighters, just more strategically advanced in their battles. They began advancing rapidly in technology to the point where they had vehicles and long-range weapons. They were soldiers. And, as such, their bodies developed in many different ways to adapt to many war enviroments.
Rainbow Clan - Warrior Clan
The Rainbow Clan was the first evolution from Star. They have all copy abilities except the Omega Copy Abilities of other Clans. After they get a copy ability, it is imprinted in their mind. After they have transformed into that a few times, they can synthesize the materials needed for that Copy Ability into a capsule. The Rainbow Clan has been demolished within the last great Monster/Star Warrior war. The majority are dead, but several are mutated into monsters or in another dimension, escaping from the genocide. The only known one left is Donokbe.
NightMare Clan - First Evil Clan
They are, obviously, the first Clan to turn evil. The leader of the current group is a powerful Star Warrior named Dark Kirby. The NightMare are less widely known as the "Dream" Warriors. A group of banished Star Warriors drank from the Fountain of Dreams. They gained the incredible ability to walk into others' dreams, create theirs, their own, and even have prophetic dreams. Afterwards, the Fountains magic was limited to its current uses. The NightMare Clan has all Copy Abilities except the OCP's of other Clans. This Clan makes up the majority of the Necrosi.
Now that that's cleared up...

Cappy Town,
It was a normal day in Cappy Town. Boredom with the occasional interesting fight between Kirby and a monster King DeDeDe ordered. Today was no exception. Kirby was walking around Cappy Town wondering where the next monster and the next meal would be. So far, neither had shown up. He did not feel worried so far. He never really was, though. However, today, he probably should be.
NightMare Enterprises...
Customer Service was talking to the usual shadowy figure in the background.
"Sir, so far, Kirby has defeated all out creations. What should we send next?" he asked. The figure hissed.
"Send Project: Donokbe and Project: Dark Mirror after our little friend," the boss said with a cold voice that sent chills up the spine.
"Yes sir!" Customer Service replied, as he rushed off.
He pressed a button and two doors opened. One held a figure that looked liked a watch if you got rid of his face. His face was like Kirby's but his mouth was different. He had arms and legs that seemed scrawny in comparison to his body. He even was about the same size as Kirby. It was Project: Donokbe. The second door opened up to reveal a figure that looked exactly like Kirby with a light blue body, dark blue feet, and horns. At the end of his arms, feet, and horns was a small point of black energy. It was Project: Dark Mirror.
"Go get Project: Star," Customer Service ordered.
"Yes sir," they answered.
They quickly dashed off to the ships and shot off to PopStar. Their eyes laden with desire as they punched it and when into hyper speed. When they arrived, Dark Mirror changed his appearance at Donokbe's order. He looked exactly like Kirby, but if you looked close, you could see a light dot on the tips of his arms and legs.
"Let's get our vengeance," Donokbe ordered, running towards the center of Cappy Town. Dark Kirby was following close behind.
Cappy Town...
Tiff and Tuff looked at the giant cloud of dust approaching with mild interest. Kirby could handle it, and if he couldn't, well, Meta Knight could. However, they were not prepared to see Kirby as one of those figures. Or, who they thought was Kirby, anyways. Especially following the other... thing. Whatever it was. It seemed small to be a monster, but there have been several monsters that at least started out small. They always were big in the end.
But not this one. As mentioned, it was barely bigger than Kirby. But he had just as much power, if not more, than the puffball. Also, he certainly had murder on his mind. Tiff was semi-worried, but she remembered Meta Knight and her worries eased. However, then Kirby walked out of Chef Kawasaki's and looked toward the approaching pair.
"Poyo?" he asked.
"Huh? But your- wait? What?" Tiff asked, confused.
"It's an imposter!" Donokbe shouted, having reached the group.
"What?" Tuff asked.
"That Kirby is an impostor! The real Kirby is right here!" Donokbe reasserted.
"Then get the monster! Warpstar!" Tiff cried out.
The Warpstar came from Kabu, shooting towards the Kirbys. The one next to Donokbe looked mildly confused. Then he realized what he had to do to keep up the charade. He leapt onto the Warpstar and came rocketing at the real Kirby. Donokbe pulled out one of his special Copy Ability Capsules. N.M.E. had discovered all the most powerful copy abilities and managed to shrink down the materials to create them as capsules. An ability Donokbe learned how to do as well.
He had selected Dragon. His normally skinny arms and legs bulged out and grew claws. Two wings ripped from his back and a tail covered with spikes emerged as well. He had every element possible chosen to mix with it. He shot a fireball at Kirby. The Star Clan Warrior sucked it up and became Fire Kirby.
He quickly began spewing fire back at Donokbe. He simply froze that and Kirby. Finally, Dark Kirby came swooping down and crashed into the ice block. It shattered to splinters. Kirby was still complete somehow.
Dark Kirby was amused by the fact that the Star Clan punk was still alive. He would take care of that. Now that Kirby was down, he might as well forget the disguise. He changed back to Tiff anf Tuff's shock.
"What? You're the impostor!" Tiff shouted.
"Right you are girlie! But you're too late to stop us now!" Dark Kirby shouted back.
He held up his hand and a strange substance came from it. It was like a bubble, only it was black with wisps of blue through it. Dark Matter, as it is called. He swallowed it and became NightMare Dark Kirby. The same name as his clan. His horns grew entirely black. Dark Matter formed as a crown on his head and his feet formed into Dark Matter, but retained their shape. He pulled out his weapon of choice. It was a trident, but it's handle was smaller than usual, which meant Dark Kirby could hold it and you'd only see the VERY bottom of the handle and its head.
Kirby was currently out of ideas. He DID know Meta Knight was busy somewhere else, probably he went to see Sgt. Cosmo. So, faced with these two, and lacking copy abilities, he was royally screwed over. Now... Dark Kirby was currently charging up a humongous blast and began firing a ray at Kirby. Donokbe was blown back as well.
Wait, this all... felt... familiar to Donokbe. His planet. He saw this. It was on the inscriptions he read after the war. A nightmarish clan had swarmed the Rainbow clan's planet. They were made slaves and monsters. Few survived long enough to leave their dimension. He saw all this. Why hadn't he gotten it sooner? Better late than never, he guessed. He looked for the capsules he stored.
"Smash, Crash, Knight... no, no, and no! Ah! Here it is! Rainbow!" Donokbe shouted, sucking up the capsule.
A rainbow formed over his head as a crown of sorts. A cape placed itself on his back and he was charged with energy. He gained a gauntlet on both hands that radiated multi-chromatic energy. He was now Rainbow Donokbe. He made a mad dash and slammed into Dark Kirby. It knocked him off the Warp Star, which shot back for Kirby.
Suddenly, the Star Warrior had an idea. He began sucking up the Warp Star. It was moderately confused and resisted at first, but it relented and rammed into Kirby's mouth. He became Star Kirby. A star formed on his back and spun for a second before a ring clasped around Kirby's head and left wrist. A gauntlet formed on his right hand and became an actual fist with fingers.
"Well, how the tables have turned," Donokbe said, slamming another fist into Dark Kirby.
"Why are we fighting each other? The Star Clan survivor is our target!" Dark Kirby shouted.
"Well, I'm the Rainbow Clan survivor because of YOU!" Donokbe roared, slamming Dark Kirby with a giant blast.
"Crap. You weren't supposed to find out til after the Star Warriors were wiped out!" Dark Kirby moaned.
"Not feeling any pity," Donokbe roared, as he and Kirby charged at the NightMare Warrior.
They slammed into him. Kirby and Donokbe then put their energies together and formed a star that was rapidly changing colors. They tossed it at Dark Kirby. It homed in on him and a huge explosion unsued its detonation. Kirby and Donokbe floated down, tired, but proud of their work. Then, they saw the shadowy form of Dark Kirby leaping out of the smoke.
"No way!" Donokbe shouted.
"Not feeling any pity," Dark Kirby shouted, mocking Donokbe.
D Kirby pulled out another capsule and swallowed it. Now, because the two are compatible to come together, they formed a combo. NightMare Sword Dark Kirby was his current form, now. Dark Kirby charged at the pair of Star Warriors. Kirby and Donokbe leapt into the air and began shooting away at the cretin of shadow. Dark Kirby tried to block them all, but, even with the sword and NightMare abilities, he couldn't. He finally was destroyed.
After The Battle...
Donokbe spit out the capsule and Kirby shot the Warp Star back to Kabu. They fell back and started breathing heavily from the exhaustion.
"You're a good fighter for a Star Clan warrior," Donokbe said, getting back to a normal breathing rate.
"Poyo? (What?)" Kirby asked, confused.
"Right. We'll have to teach you how to talk," Donokbe stated.
"Who are you?" Meta Knight asked from the top of Kawasaki's.
"Ah, the Moon Clan King. Meta Knight, right?" Donokbe asked.
"Who. Are. You?" Meta Knight asked again, coldly.
"The name's Donokbe. I'm a Star Warrior of the Rainbow Clan. I had been working with N.M.E. for some time after misinterpreting some documents. Was trying to destroy Kirby. I thought it was he who had done that," Donokbe said.
"I'm sure you'll be a great help to our cause. With both you and me teaching Kirby, he will be ready to take on Nightmare," Meta Knight said, leaping off.
"Odd man. He has his uses though. I guess," Donokbe said.
"Poyo? (What does that mean?)" Kirby asked.
"I am so glad I can translate baby-speak," Donokbe sighed, taking Kirby by the hand to teach him first lessons on talking.
BADUM! BADUM! BADUM!
