A book simply titled 'The New Adventures of Kirby' opens up to the first page to reveal a peaceful body of stars, planets, moons, and suns.
'Long ago, when the universe was new, a mysterious entity appeared in the darkness. This being was simply known as 'Dark Matter'. It could not feel emotions like happiness, sadness, or anger. It only had a desire to shroud everything in darkness.'
As the narrator was voicing over, a cloud of darkness suddenly appeared and engulfed a nearby planet. After this happened, the cloud grew an eye with a blood-red pupil.
'Its onslaught raged on for ages. Planets and galaxies alike fell victim to its cruel grasp. The Dark Matter's advance seemed unstoppable. Brave warriors were hand-picked to fend off the Dark Matter from their homes, but alas, these brave acts, although courageous, proved futile in stopping the Dark Matter.'
Heroes from many different worlds are shown determined to fight off the Dark Matter, yet as the narrator went on, the Dark Matter proved victorious, having slain all who opposed it, then going on to take over their worlds, leaving behind corpses of the ones who died in battle.
'All that changed, however, when the Dark Matter set its sights on a certain planet called Pop Star.'
The Dark Matter cloud approached a star shaped planet with rings revolving around it.
'As it appeared another planet had fallen victim to the Dark Matter, an unlikely hero rose to stop the Dark Matter. This hero was simply known as Kirby.'
A round figure appeared as it faced the cloud of Dark Matter, with a glowing sword that appeared exceptionally powerful.
'Over the course of five years, the Dark Matter made three attempts to conquer Pop Star, all ending in failure, no thanks to this Kirby. On the second time, one of the Dark Matter betrayed his own kind and sided with the hero. Where this reformed Dark Matter currently resides is largely unknown. On the third time, Kirby had received help from three figures of dubious fame and even managed to free a planet that the Dark Matter had recently taken over from its terrible grasp.'
As the narrator voiced, two things had gone on. A goofy looking blob with a sticky tongue had defected from the Dark Matter and had even aided this Kirby in fighting what appeared to be a gigantic eyeball. The next thing that happened was that five figures had expelled the Dark Matter from a heart-shaped planet.
'Pop Star had seen peace for years, but the Dark Matter never gives up until they have what they want. And our five heroes will be ready when the time comes...'
A lush field is then laid out. It appeared to be exceptionally sunny as butterflies fluttered around and flowers were blooming. In the trees, a chick is chirping as what appeared to be a chicken flew back as it gave a worm to the chick. What stood out was a dome-shaped house that was situated deep in the field. The mailbox on the side simply read 'KIRBY' as a pink puffball was sleeping on a small bed.
This puffball was known by many as Kirby, Planet Popstar's resident hero. Many times a villain would simply misjudge Kirby based on looks alone but would also receive a rude surprise when the puffball had delivered a good beating to the villain and sent them packing from Dream Land. However, Kirby was at heart, a child with an insatiable appetite.
Kirby was only awoken by a butterfly that had flew into his window and landed between his eyes. As soon as it did that, the puffball got up groggily as it flew away. Kirby then went outside to get some air. However, as he did so, a twinkle appeared in the sky which caught the puffball's attention. The twinkle revealed a giant comet which crash landed in a gorge of some sort.
Succumbing to curiosity, Kirby set out to investigate this new comet as he ran towards where it landed...
