Chapter 2:
I woke up again the next day, I was still replaying the previous nights events in my mind, though I was almost certain it had all been a dream. Or... at least that's what I was trying to convince myself of. I slowly got up from my bed and ditched my pajamas on the floor before changing into my day clothes, which was just a pair of shorts and a short sleeved shirt.
After that I then decided to got the restroom to comb out the tangles that had taken hold of my head during my , knowing my hair, it would tke me an hour to fix it up. After I finally got it to lay down flat, I proceeded to brushing my teeth. That's when I hear a small 'creek' from the cabinet below.
The small cabinet under the sink, to the far left, had somehow opened itself by a inch. Surprised by this I turned around with the toothbrush still in my mouth and quickly tried to dismiss it as just the wind, only to realize there was none. I stared in anticipation, waiting for an answer on why it had moved. It took a few more seconds, but I got my answer.
After realizing I was alone, a figure within the cabinet stepped out. I wasn't so surprised that he could fit in there, though what really struck me as surprising was that HE was the one to decide he was going to hide in there in the first place, you'd think he would had somewhere... less prone to having bugs and cobwebs in a clean room like this. True the room was small, but it still had some good hiding spots.
I stared at the Knight for a moment and turned back to brushing my teeth. After a few seconds I turned back to him, he was still waiting patiently.
"So... mind telling me whats going on?" I asked. I was one of those people who questioned the crap out off people when I felt like it, but when the time called for it, I accepted things as they were and got right to the point.
"You don't seem to be at all surprised of my appearance, may I ask why?" he finally spoke.
"I am surprised... I'm just not the type to show emotion during these types situations, Meta Knight," I said.
"How do you know my name?" his eyes narrowed as he spoke.
"You see, here , many people know of you as a video game character in a game within the famous Kirby series." I told him. "But, most thought you only existed in a game, I am still trying to comprehend how you're here now." Then I added, " Plus, I want to know why you had to steal from my fridge."
"Hmm... since you seem to know a bit of me, I might as well give you an explanation at least to clarify for me taking your food in the middle of the night," he said, before turning his back to me.
"Back in dreamland, shortly after Nightmares supposed defeat, things went back to how they were before Kirby had crash landed in Cappy town. Soon after though, the monsters we thought had gone returned, causing a huge commotion all over the galaxy. The attacks soon intensified and soon we were faced with a new reality. It was soon clear that Nightmare had returned." he paused, it looked like he was trying to recall everything that had happened until this point in time.
"He is not as powerful as last time we fought him, but even so, he has now made it his primary goal to eliminate Kirby and myself, to insure that there will be no one to stop him as he tries to regain the power he had lost. Because of this, he sent large armies of of monsters to dreamland, many homes were destroyed in each battle, but the inhabitants were able to stay safe within Kabu during the battles." He let out a small sigh. I listen quietly though I was slightly wishing he'd get to the point.
"After the most recent battle, I came to decision, in where if I could get Kirby and myself away from dreamland, the Cappy's would finally be able to live in peace, for a while at least, till their become his next target. When I told Kirby about my plan, his friends wouldn't even give him the chance to reply, they denied him permission to leave, knowing that Kirby would have said yes so that his friends could stay safe. But, in the end they had no choice to but to agree, after that is was only a matter of fixing up the old monster delivery system, to be able to send us away to a different planet or universe." He turned back around, facing me, but I couldn't see any emotion could be seen from behind his mask. He turned his gaze to the ground in front of me.
" While I stepping onto the pad, with Kirby right behind me, I heard a small explosion from where sword had cried out from behind the controls. When I turned around I was able to see smoke coming from them. That's when I knew something had gone wrong with the wiring. I was able to push Kirby off the pad before I was teleported away, thinking that is it was somewhere dangerous, he wouldn't have to suffer the same fate as me." He finally looked up. " That's when I awoke in the streets, I didn't know where I was, but I knew that if I were to survive the night, I would have to be able to find some food, and that's when I found your balcony door opened."
"And you thought with everyone asleep you might be able to take a small amount of food to be able to keep you going for a while... Is that right?" I asked after a moment.
"correct," He answered.
"Hmm, from what I know of you and your knights, it would seem that you might not be stuck here for very long, they are probably trying to fix the machine to get you back as we speak." I waited for his response.
"I would believe so," He said.
"Alright then, come along," I said as I opened the bathroom door and walked towards the kitchen.
"What are you doing?" I could guess that from the tone of his voice he was confused with the sudden turn of events.
"Making you something to eat, I don't think the yogurt you took last night is going to last you very long." I looked away and started to break a few eggs before scrambling them.
"There is no need for you-," he tried to object.
"No you don't, if what you said is true,your going to have to keep your strength up in case Nightmare figures out where you are and sends someone after you," I cut in.
"Fine, I have to acknowledge the logic you have there." He finally announced.
"Good, cuz breakfast is ready!" I said in delight.
We sat down at the small table mt family had, it was usually full of junk, but I had cleaned it up before I had cooked breakfast. Meta Knight sat across from me, he looked around at his surrounding, I could see he was looking for something or someone.
" If your looking for my family, my mom and brother left get some breakfast without me, since i always wake up late, and my dad won't be home till midnight." I said, trying to guess his question.
"I see...," he said looking at his empty plate, " does this mean you will be telling your parents about me?" I could see he was hoping I wasn't.
"Sorry my friend, but I have to tell them, I don't lie, besides, my parents are understanding of everything, I don't think they would mind." I tried to convince.
"Very well then," he got up from his seat.
"where you going?" I was hoping he wasn't going to leave so soon.
"No where, I'm just going to see what you guys get on your TV " he said as he walked over to my TV and sat in the chair in front of it. I could tell he had finally given up on the idea of leaving, knowing this would be the only place he could stay in for the time being.
