Mario only noticed the fire balls as they hit his body he saw black spots in his eyes before he felt the pain he fell to the ground once more and Kirby drew his hammer.
Kirby pulled out his hammer and filled the handle with his energy the end of the hammer began to heat up as it filled with a power capable of launching the heaviest of opponents the energy gave the hammer the appearance of fire the hammer began to burn Kirby's palm that's how he knew it was time to swing.
"Mario looked with recognition as the hammer came at him there was no way to block it in time. Mario never saw the hit but he felt the first 5 seconds of the pain it caused him because after that he blacked out.
[Luigi]
"Luigi watched from the stands in horror as his brother became a human rocket and crashed into a wall.
"Luigi could tell it hurt because all that was visible was his head harms and legs his torso was completely buried in the wall his cloths were still on fire but they barely singed. Luigi jumped down from his seat next to Daisy and ran to Mario not seeing the shadow that followed him.
The full impact of what occurred finally hit Luigi as he stood next to Mario's unconscious body. He stood 12 feet away to afraid to get closer as the pink creature sat next to Mario and poked him with a small stick the pink creature then returned to its feet and slowly walked up to Luigi who was too scared to move the pink creature then pulled out of nowhere Mario's hat and placed it in Luigi's hand which was shaking with seemingly a mind of its own. With a rush of wind MetaKnight appeared behind Luigi from seemingly nowhere and pushed him out of the way unceremoniously and drew his sword and walked toward Mario his expression hidden behind his mask. Luigi watched as he was to terrified to move his brother was about to die!
[MetaKnight]
MetaKnight had no intention of killing the red garbed plumber he drew his sword and walked up to the man embedded in the wall he began by placing his sword between Mario and the wall and pried him out of his rocky tomb as the plumber fell with an audible thud. The green clad plumber looked terrified but relief was visible on his face as he also collapsed presumably anticipating the worst. MetaKnight looked to his pink nephew his pride hidden by his mask which then turned to a cringe as he poked the green plumber with stick as well. The paramedics finally arrived as the red plumber regained contentiousness and picked up his hat from his fallen brother "Poyo" Kirby said reluctantly MetaKnight relayed Kirby's apology to the singed plumber Who promptly nodded and acknowledged his defeat "He packs quite-a the punch for such a small guy." Mario said with enthusiasm. MetaKnight's gaze turned back to the green plumber who was being carried away by two Paratroopas with a stretcher.
[Lucario]
Lucario watched from atop a large broken pillar as the plumber was carried away his aura was moving rapidly he had obviously fainted from emotional exhaustion the masked knight however had a strange aura he had no recognition of he would have to watch him closely but the thing that worried him the most was the victor of the match who had no visible aura the only things that had no aura were inanimate objects and the dead but even the dead had remnants of aura but this thing had none therefor he should not even exist this was a mystery that had to be answered if not just to satisfy his own curiosity.
Lucario approached the knight and his young pupil "What are you" He said without moving his mouth MetaKnight immediately recognized this as telepathy his young friend stared blankly clearly confused. "I am MetaKnight this is my nephew Kirby. "Poyo" Kirby stated to MetaKnight. "No" Lucario said to the small pink creature "I am not a dog and you cannot pet me". Kirby blinked startled that he understood what he said. Kirby then proceeded to babble about his life and his friends and his favorite food's. Lucario was astonished at the innocence of the child and noticed his aura it was barely visible and only appeared when he opened his mouth he doubted he would have noticed it if he hadn't started babbling about himself. Kirby the ran up to Lucario unexpectedly and gave him a hug Lucario felt good,it was adorable. "Poyo poi?" Do you want to be friend's? Kirby said as Lucario read his mind. "Gladly." Lucario said with a smile.
