Elenast woke up with a sudden jolt, she had no idea where she was, one minute she was taking a nap and the next, well, there she was.
Elenast took a look at her surroundings, things seemed... bubbly. Everything seemed overly colored, emphasized, and a tad childish. She got up and walked around a bit, until she noticed her black clothes really stood out against the colorful place. She also noticed how soft the grass was, and the tree's leaves looked like they were in clumps, or almost a single unity.
Elenast's face lit up like a balloon, she was a sucker for childish objects. She jumped on the softest, shiniest patch of grass there was and rolled around in it for what seemed like an eternity. After five minutes, Elenast got up and decided to take a look around.
Elenast only walked for at most ten minutes before she noticed something was wrong in the atmosphere. Luckily, she was right. She leaped to the right as she saw something jump on the spot she was before. Elenast quickly turned to see her attacker, only to see the strangest thing she'd ever seen. It was a round ball with what looked like armor, he had a long sword, a mask, and a cape that reached his feet.
When he attacked again, he let out giant, almost demonic wings. Though he thrusted his sword more than a few times, and rather quickly too, Elenast dodged all his attacks. Elenast had an extremely sensitive sixth sense (in other words, she had good instincts).
Elenast noticed this and decided to make her escape. She quickly leaped back, turned around, and sprinted to a nearby opening. Unfortunately, she wasn't very fast, and to make matters worse, her attacker was extremely fast. Right when she was about to reach the opening, her attacker cut her off. Elenast backed up only to find...
A rock.
Elenast, like the girl she is, tripped on it. Her attacker sweatdropped, and Elenast noticed a scrape on her knee. Elenast felt tears well up in her eyes. She rubbed her eyes to keep her weakness from showing, "I'm okay... I'm not crying." She said, almost too quiet to hear.
Her attacker thought for a moment, he had no idea she was so vulnerable. He thought that because she dodged all his attacks she was...
"Uh... are you-"
"I SAID I'M NOT CRYING!" She burst into tears and flapped her arms, running away, fell over, and got back up running again.
The attacker jumped back in surprise, then heard someone call his name.
"Hey! Metaknight! Did you find the intruder?"
"Yeah, give me a minute." Metaknight looked in the direction Elenast took off to, and thought his movements from there.
Elenast wiped the tears from her face and washed her scab in a nearby river.
"Ugh. That was so embarrassing!" She said aloud. Elenast had noticed before that she had a... childish nature.
Elenast finished washing her scab, and turned around to see her attacker.
"WAH!" Elenast yelled, jumping back in surprise.
Metaknight sweatdropped, "Sorry, I am afraid it was a misunderstanding."
Elenast lowered her arms, but not her guard.
"Metaknight." he said.
Elenast guessed he was trying to start an introduction, "Elenast... Are you willing to answer questions?"
Metaknight thought for a moment, "... Depends on the question."
"OK," Elenast started, "let's go with this. Where am I?"
"You don't know?" He asked.
Elenast shook her head.
"... You're in Dreamland."
"Wait, say that again? I don't think I heard you right."
"You're in Dreamland." he answered again.
"You're kidding! No way! That's so cool!" Elenast said excitedly.
Metaknight sweatdropped, this was an... unusual case.
"So that means... You're Metaknight?! Like Kirby-Metaknight!?"
"Kirby-Metaknight?" Metaknight started backing away slowly.
"OH MY GOSH! THAT'S AMAZING!" She said, with the biggest eyes on earth, or where ever they were.
"..."
"Wait... that means Kirby is here too! WAH!" Elenast was now not really talking to Metaknight, she was off in her own world now.
"Huh...?"
Elenast snapped back to earth, and her face got pink with embarrassment.
"S-sorry! It's just Kirby is really famous on where I live."
"You know Kirby?" He asked, not confused anymore.
"No, but I know of him."
"Where do you live?"
"Earth, do you know how I get back?"
"No, and I've never heard of this 'earth'"
She sighed, "Crap." Elenast sunk to her feet, and Metaknight noticed her desperation. He usually didn't talk to intruders, let alone help them, but this was an... unusual case.
"I may be able to help." he (awkwardly) said.
Elenast thought for a moment, but she took the only thing she got.
"Thank you~!" she said, as she put her hands together and smiled. Metaknight wondered what he got himself into.
"Ugh. Can we take a break?" Elenast said, bent over in exhaustion.
"It's a long way until we reach our destination."
"We've been running for hours! I haven't even had breakfast yet!"
"Fine."
"Yes!" Elenast said to herself as she sat on the ground and laid on her back. After a few minutes she sat up and asked, "Can I see what's behind your mask?"
"No." He said flatly.
"Why?"
"No."
"That's not an answer."
"Yes it is. Just not an answer to your question."
"Ugh." Elenast sat for a few seconds, "Please?"
"No."
"Do you look like Kirby?"
"Stop asking pointless questions."
"Stop giving me pointless answers!" She said, slightly annoyed.
"I'm not going to argue with you."
"Yes you are."
"No I'm-" then Metaknight noticed the evil grin on her face. "You said you were hungry. Get some food."
"Whatever you say, princess." And when Elenast said those words, Metaknight was left, slightly embarrassed he sunk to her level.
"Great now I'm lonely. Smooth. Just smooth." She said to herself.
Elenast started to look for food. "Now if I was a snack, where would I be."
Elenast didn't think she would find a snack, an apple off a tree maybe, but not a snack. But, as fate would have it, there it was. A chocolate cookie. On a silver platter. It was so beautiful, there was but only one thing she could do, and that was eat it. And so she did.
As soon as Elenast finished the cookie, she found herself staring at a chocolate bar. What else was there to do but eat it? And so she did.
and one after the other, Elenast kept on eating snacks she found right after the next. And then, there it was. The most perfectly cut piece of cake she had ever seen. She didn't think there could be such a thing, but yet there it was. Staring at her. Mocking her, with all of its deliciously coated frosting and it's chocolaty delectable delights. Yet, as it stood, there was nothing Elenast could do but eat it. And so she did.
Unfortunately, Elenast did not see the giant iron cage surrounding the cookie. So as she ate, the giant door slammed in her face.
"HEY!" she called, "What's the big idea?!"
"I got him! I got him!" A voice came from behind a bush, and out came a giant colorful penguin (?) with 20 round ball-looking things.
"You're not him." He said.
"You don't say! What do you think you're doing anyway!"
"What am I doing? You're the one who ruined my trap!" he replied.
"Well, excuse me princess!" Elenast liked using that sarcastic phrase.
The penguin looked deeply offended, "Not princess, call me king! King Dedede!"
Elenast grew excited, "You mean, you're Dedede? That is so cool!"
King Dedede puffed his chest up in pride, and said, "So I see I am famous in many countries."
"Yeah! You're my favorite antagonist!" she said cheerfully.
King Dedede fell over, "Bad guy? No, you must be mistaken. I am the benevolent King Dedede, see I'm trying to catch an evil wild animal right now, to help the kingdom." King Dedede said, trying (yet failing) to build suspense.
"Benevolent? More like greedy! Not to mention that 'wild animal' you're chasing is probably just Kirby! "
Dedede was surprised, half because she called him greedy and half because she knew more than he expected.
"Wah? Me? Greedy? You must be blind, deaf, and dumb." he said.
"I'm not dumb! I happen to be the smartest person I know!" Then again, she thought, I don't really know a lot of people.
Dedede sweatdropped, "Hmm...you sure about that?"
Elenast felt her blood boil, "You're certainly one to talk, you're the one who failed to catch Kirby multiple times out of arrogance and instead caught someone who is a completely different species," Elenast grinned, "Not to mention the fact that your annoying tendencies led to your utter defeat as a moron."
Elenast saw Dedede go red with anger, so she decided to throw something nice in there because she was in his custody, "But I like you better than Bowser and Ganondorf combined."
Dedede calmed down, "Bowser and Ganondorf?"
"Yeah, they're two other greedy kings, except they're not as nice as you. Bowser is a giant spiky turtle who will kill anything in his path, and Ganondorf, the more cruel one, is a evil dark lord whose sole purpose is to take over Hyrule." Mario, Legend of Zelda, Kirby, Metroid and Pokemon were really the only games she ever played. She knew of other games, like Fire Emblem, but she doesn't know the antagonist in those ones and Metroid and Pokemon don't have a leading antagonist.
"So...I'm nicer?"
That's all he got out of that? "By a long shot, that's why you're my favorite antagonist!"
Dedede got angry again, "I'm not a bad guy."
"I didn't say bad guy, I said antagonist. And you kind of are because you're always going against kirby. Kind of like Martina in Slayers!" Elenast put her hands on her mouth, "Oops, wrong fanfiction!"
"What are you talking about?"
"Kirby!" Elenast said, super cheerful.
Dedede noticed her bubbly aura, "...you like Kirby?"
"ARE YOU KIDDING!?" she yelled excitedly, making Dedede jump back in surprise, "Kirby is my very favorite Nintendo character out of all of them...except Link. "
"Wait, I'm not your favorite?"
"You don't even know what I'm talking about."
"Yeah but, I'm not your favorite?"
"Of course not!" She said smiling, as she gave the kiss of death (not literal), "You're just my favorite antagonist!"
Dedede gawked in sad surprise, then folded his arms saying, "Well then, you can just stay there!"
"What?"
"Until you admit I'm your favorite."
"Are you serious?"
"Yes."
"What are you three? Who cares!"
"So am I your favorite?"
"No!"
"Well then I'll wait."
"Oh my gosh, are you really going to be this immature?"
"I'm not being immature, I'm being rational."
"Your being the opposite of rational!" They sat there in an awkward silence for a while until Elenast said, "Your Waddle Dees are creeping me out! They're all staring at me!"
"Yeah...they do that..."
Elenast sighed, "Do I really have to do it?" Elenast asked.
"Do what?"
"Act like the damsel-in-distress and scream?"
Dedede's eyes went big, "Don't scream!"
Elenast saw the horror in his eyes and said, "Too late." and let out the loudest scream she could, which rattled the whole forest, and awoken someone far, far off (foreshadowing for the next chapter!).
Just then, Elenast felt something jump on the top of the cage.
"Wah! How'd you get here so fast!?" Dedede said.
The thing on the cage jumped down and Elenast knew exactly who it was.
"Kirby!~"
Hello there! Jellie and Frank here! This is our brand-new, super shiny, first-ever COWRITE! Together we are the Irish Pegasisters, and our mission is to bring a smile to your face! We hope we'll succeed!
This first chapter takes place in Dreamland, duh. The next will take place in Ordon village, with a different character. The chapters will alternate, but only for a little bit. Then Elenast and the other character will meet, and so will the chapters! Meaning, you won't have alternating points of view. Because it's difficult for us too.
Also, there probably won't be any pairings... Because humans and kirbies don't really mix. Google "if Kirby was real" and you'll get it. And let's just say we argue frequently over who Link loves more. :P
Have a nice day, please review and tell us what you think!
