Smash 1

(Shadow of the Colossus – Silence)

It's been two weeks now, and Kirby was still missing.

For two weeks, the kingdom of Dreamland was plagued with confusion and worry.

For two weeks Fumu found herself fearing the worst.

To Fumu, none of it made any sense, Kirby never showed any recent signs he was unhappy enough to want to leave, he never said anything about wanting to go somewhere, he never even left a note. It was almost like he vanished without a trace.

Fumu was standing on the castle walls, looking out into the landscape that is the kingdom of Dreamland, she was beside herself with worry.

Kirby… Fumu thought, Where did you go?

Fumu heard footsteps, she turned to see Gooey, Bun, and Rick.

"Sorry, sis," Bun said, "We've got literally everyone searching up and down Pop Star, and none of us has so much found a clue to where Kirby is."

"Meta Knight even contacted Ribbon on Ripple Star," Rick said, "She said Kirby isn't here either."

Gooey seemed particularly nervous "Sweet mercy! This is nerve wracking! What if the worst happened? What if he's been kidnapped by giant insects and Sold to a zoo? Or a circus? Or worst; a Zoo-Circus?-!"

"Zoo-Circus?" Rick asked.

"Come on, guys, we gotta focus!" Fumu said sternly, "there has to be somewhere we haven't looked."

"Sis, we've got our friends searching the entire planet." Bun said, "Heck, Sir Arthur's even got people searching the entire Gamble Galaxy, if there's anywhere we haven't looked, I'd love to know what it is."

"Well, it's not like he's gonna just pop up out of thin air," Fumu said.

Suddenly, Fumu noticed a flash of light coming from behind her, she turned around.

Fumu gasped at who she saw…

She saw Kirby, and he looked exhausted and bruised, and he even looked as though he hadn't slept in days.

"KIRBY!" Fumu quickly ran up to pink child and hugged him tightly, "Are you alright? We've had people searching the entire galaxy for you."

"I'm fine, poyo, haha," Kirby gave a soft, tired chuckle but then groaned, "I'm just still a little sore…everywhere."

Bun, Gooey, and Rick all approached Kirby.

"Kirby, what happened to you?" Bun asked, "You look like you just walked out of a warzone."

"It's a little….. complicated, poyo, but don't worry, I'll explain everything" Kirby answered, as Fumu released Kirby from her hug, he sat down on the floor, exhausted, "but first, I need a rest, poyo,"

Fumu picked Kirby up, "Come on, Bun, let's take Kirby to our living room and help him recover, Gooey and Rick, head on out and spread the news to everyone that Kirby's been found."

Gooey saluted with his tongue, "Aye aye, ma'am! We'll head back to you once we're done."

Three hours later, Kirby was sitting on the sofa in the living room of the castle apartment that Fumu and her family live in, Kirby was wrapped in a blanket and was holding a cup of hot cocoa in his hands. Fumu and Bun were both sitting next to him while Parm and Memu were sitting on the sofa parallel to the one Kirby was sitting on.

Kirby breathed a sigh of relief, "Thanks, everyone, poyo, I feel a lot better."

"It's no trouble Kirby," Fumu said, "You've obviously been through a lot since you were gone, but speaking of which, you ready to explain where you've been all this time yet?"

"Indeed, you've pulled quite the disappearing act on us," Memu said, "You've been gone for two weeks."

"Just two weeks, poyo?" Kirby asked, which surprised everyone, "weird, somehow it felt like I was trapped here for much longer, poyo…."

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

"Do come in!" Parm called out.

As the door opened, King Dedede, Escargon, Meta Knight, Blade Knight, and Sword Knight entered the room.

Meta Knight saw Kirby and breathed a sigh of relief, "So it's true you've returned, Kirby, thank goodness."

"Yeah, warn us the next time you decide to go M.I.A on us," Escargon said, "You've even made His Majesty panic."

"Yea-HEY! Watch it!" Dedede called out.

Gooey shortly entered the room

"Gooey, back already, poyo?" Kirby asked.

"Yeah, after Rick and I told Meta Knight and Dedede about your return," Gooey replied, "Big D here sent out his Waddle Dees to spread the news and Rick went to the forest to get the word out to everyone else here, he also suggested I head back to check on you, soooo, here I am."

"Thanks, Gooey, poyo," Kirby greeted, "I appreciate everyone's concern, but I think I'm fine now, and I think I'm ready to tell you all what happened."

"So what happened to you?" Meta Knight asked, "Why were you gone all this time?"

"Would you believe I was kidnapped by a giant floating hand from a different dimension, poyo?" Kirby asked, but only got awkward silence as everyone looked at him confusingly, "I guess not, I better start from the beginning, poyo….."
