Prologue: a funeral?
The service was short and simple. For nobody knew him well enough. Tiff and Tuff stood together in sorrowful silence for their lost friend (sort of). Even Kirby understood what had happened and wept in the same silence. It was never a happy time when someone died, or in this case was killed in battle. The citizens of cappy town came to pay their respects, aside from king Dedede and escargoon who had not the grace to show up. Time ticked by and people began to wonder away as the sky darkened and the ancient stars began to shine their limitless light. Tiff, Tuff and Kirby also prepared to leave venturing nearer to read the grave stone. 'Here lies Meta Knight the star warrior, hero of war, brave friend and strong ally. One who turned the worst odds to the best no matter the circumstance. Provider of a new star.' Tiff dwelled on the last sentence in puzzlement, but remained quiet as they left. Meta Knights partners came next, Sword Knight and Blade Knight stepped forward heads bowed in sorrow to say their last goodbyes to their boss and friend. The night grew darker and the grave received another visitor after all others had gone. Sirica approached the grave. She hadn't properly known Meta Knight but still considered him a friend. Sirica closed her eyes and played back his final battle in her head.
Galaxia had revealed the truth to her, Sirica had thrown Meta Knight the sword and he had engaged battle with the great beast kirisakin. Meta Knight had refused to allow anyone to get into harms way so fought the beast alone. Kirisakin had quickly overpowered him dealing the killing blow galaxia shattered and Meta Knight was done for, but the beast didn't finish him off. The beast just examined the remains of Galaxia and then retreated. Before anybody had time to react the beast was gone and Meta Knight was dead.
Sirica opened her eyes and cursed herself over if she hadn't previously wounded Meta Knight he may have survived. There was just no helping it now, all she could do was hunt down the demon beast and kill it for Meta Knight and Garlude. Looking out over the rolling hills of Dreamland and into the vast night sky. "Nothing can stop me. Kirisakin I'm coming for you" sirica promised as she vanished int the night on a hunt for demon beast.
