Author's note: This isn't the result of my poll. It is a request from my excellent reviewer: ElementalKitten. I wish to thank ElementalKitten and all of those who have reviewed and liked my stories.
This once again takes place after the anime and I will use the original names.
Don't forget to R and R!
Chapter 1
"Come, Warp Star!" Fumu screamed.
The warp star came just in the brink of time and rescued Kirby from the hideous demon's claws.
Kirby held onto the Warp Star for dear life. The monster charged after Kirby and with one swipe, sent the Warp Star crashing. Kirby would've been crushed had not Sir Meta Knight showed up at the last second. Swiftly Fumu ran over to Kirby while Meta Knight finished off the monsters.
"Kirby, are you alright? Answer me!" Fumu cried.
"D-don't worry… I'm fine." Kirby responded weakly.
"Thank goodness." Fumu gasped.
Meta Knight finished fighting and walked over to the two. "It looks pretty bad. Fumu, we have to get him to bed." the knight commanded.
"Yes." said Fumu as she carefully picked up Kirby.
Fumu hauled Kirby back to Castle Dedede and laid him in her bed. She wiped away the blood from his mouth and pulled her covers over him. It didn't help that it was snowing and extremely cold.
Seeing Kirby shiver made Fumu hop in bed with him. She snuggled up close to him so he wouldn't catch cold. Thoughts of the past few months entered the girl's mind as she laid there.
After they had defeated Nightmare, the people of Dreamland had thought that peace would finally once again reign. How wrong they were. None of them knew that Customer Service had escaped with his life. And now, eleven years after the defeat of Nightmare, the fiend was wreaking havoc.
The first thing CS did was land an Ice Dragon so it was snowing and cold. The Dragon was concealed so that they could not find it and defeat it. All the cold weather was making the moral drop and lots were getting colds. Then the evil salesman unleashed all the monsters that he had stored up.
As soon as the treats started, Sir Meta Knight started a group of fighters called the 'Meta Knights'. This group consisted of himself, Kirby, Sword, Blade, Knuckle Joe, Silica, Waddle Doo, Commander Vee, Benikage, and even Fumu's brother, Bun.
Sir Arthur and the surviving members of the GSA were also in the fight. Knuckle Joe and Silica moved into Pupupu village to join Meta Knight's group. While Princess Rona sent supplies in, Commander Vee, fought on the front lines. Waddle Doo trained the members and, as soon as Benikage became an excellent ninja, he also moved in.
The Meta Knights spit into groups of threes and surveyed the area for demon beasts. It was hard work but they had to. Fumu considered herself a part of the band because she was constantly following Kirby and calling his Warp Star.
The Warp Star… Fumu knew that she was the only one who could call it because she 'was someone who loved Kirby'. When she first learned that from Sir Meta Knight as a little girl, she didn't know what to make of it. But now that she was grown up, she had a much better understanding.
She had always loved Kirby as a mother or a big sister but now it was something more. Fumu just wondered how Kirby felt… Although Kirby was quite grown up as well, he didn't seem to put much thought that sort of thing.
Fumu was dragged out of her thought as Kirby's paw softly poked her.
"What is it, Kirby?" asked the young lady.
"May I have some hot drink?" Kirby said.
"Certainly," said Fumu as she rose to get it.
Fumu made her way to kitchen. She could hear the high-pitched sound of Waddle Doo as he drilled the Waddle Dees. A smile appeared on Fumu's face as she poured Kirby a cup of sleepy tea.
It was his favorite kind and the sleepy part would make him sleep well.
Fumu carried the mug back to her room and handed it to Kirby.
"Thank you, Fumu." said Kirby as the hot drink went down the hatch. "This could warm anyone up!"
"Good. Now go back to sleep." said Fumu.
"But I have to rejoin my comrades!"
"I'm sure they will be fine. After all, I don't want you to overdo it."
"Okay." replied Kirby, who was falling to sleep.
