Q: Well. This is the first chapter... I don't know what to put here so... um... enjoy the chapter.

Boo: Quinton doesn't own Nintendo, HAL Lab, or Kirby


The sun sets, and the moon rises, as it shone a dim, yellow light towards the camp involving the two clueless Waddle Dees. This camp of theirs sits on top of a small hill which was surrounded by a shrouded forest. Bandanna Dee was setting up a fire and Parasol Dee was gathering any food around the camp. This will include tomatoes, maxim tomatoes, apples, and worms. After Parasol Dee's trip through the forest around their camp, Bandanna Dee had finished his fire, and a bag of worms, as well as a parasol, filled with many red wonders. With all that, Bandanna Dee made a whole dish using the tomatoes and the apples.

"Since when did you learn how to cook?" Parasol Dee questioned.

"I've learned cooking as a survival instinct. I've also learned it from Kirby. He opened up a cafe two years ago. We decided to close it whenever Popstar or even the entire universe is at some sort of situation." Parasol Dee somehow grabbed a tea kettle from somewhere (story magic!) but asked if Bandanna Dee wanted tea. He nodded his head and grabbed a maxim tomato. He used a few sticks to hold the kettle over the fire. As Parasol Dee waited for the water to heat up, he looked at his companion, who sighed and looked up at the starry night sky.

"Anything wrong Bandanna Dee?"

The troubled Waddle Dee sighed once again and looked down. "I'm worried for the King. I've been his sidekick, and as I mentioned earlier, he hasn't done this for a very long time. Hopefully, Kirby and Meta Knight'll understand Dedede's reasoning behind the food raid."

As soon as the water was finally hot, he poured the water on the parasol, using it as a cup or even a bowl. He juiced out the maxim tomato, mixing the nutrients from the fruit with the water, thus creating the Maxim Tea. Bandanna Dee took off his clothing and used it to hold the tea. "Speaking of Kirby and Meta Knight, do you think they'll be okay? I mean, what if they got hit by those meteors and that has somehow ticked some kind of 'dishonorable' memory?"Parasol Dee asked in addition to the question he stated earlier.

"But… what kind of 'dishonorable' memory would Kirby have? After all, he is the Hero of Dream Land." Bandanna Dee replied. A few seconds pass and Parasol Dee yawns. "Well, I guess we can save it for tomorrow. I'll keep watch for tonight. If anything really suspicious occurs, I will wake you up. Okay?" He nodded and slept.

A few hours pass by and nothing has really happened yet, with the exception of a few Scarfies flying with the Bronto Burts. A virtually invisible portal abruptly appears and a large object had started to descend in a dramatically rapid speed. Of course, this set an alarm and Bandanna Dee had immediately woken up his former friend. Big puffs of smoke were coming out of a familiar spacecraft, an alien had exited out of the vehicle, and another object crashed near the spacecraft.

As soon as our heroes arrived, Bandanna Dee had recognized every bit of the crime scene. The two spacecraft and the two victims. One of the victims, Magolor, had worn a blue hood, a ragged cape, and his scraped clothing. He limped away from the two spacecraft and another non-native. The other victim, Susanna (Susie) Haltmann, rode a customized "Business Suit" and had pink hair, and concealed her face with a yellow visor.

A homing explosive was shot out from the back of the armor, following the fleeing martian. The homing device exploded as he flew like a helpless, knocked out Gigant Edge. He turned around, cowering in fear, pleading, "I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" numerous times.

Susie leaped out of her Business Suit. Her posture was straight, and she pointed the ray gun directly at Magolor. Her soul was filled with distrust, anger, and doubtfulness. She lifted her visor, revealing her face. Her glowing eyes spotted Magolor, who was kneeling down for mercy.

"C-Can't w-we somehow negotiate?! Could we just talk like what friends do?!" Magolor yelled, as he fell to the floor, sobbing.

Susie stared at her best friend as he made a fool out of himself. She waited a few seconds until he finished his crying. The volume started to die down, except for the hushing from the engine on the Lor Starcutter. "You know this was your fault, right? All of it! We were almost done researching everything about the hidden power of those hearts."

"Those hearts contained a forbidden power no creature could ever handle!" He sharply replied. "No one should ever possess a heart containing the excessive amount of hatred in those hearts! I don't care if I take my life away, but at least it's stopping whatever I have caused."

Susanna squeezed her gun, as she continued the energy from the weapon to charge. "That 'it' will never stop anything once I have collected as many - no… all of the hearts in the universe, I'll be unstoppa-" Before she could continue on her speech, Parasol Dee whacked Susie from the back of her head, easily knocking her unconscious.

It took a little time for Magolor to stand up straight. He thanked the two Waddle Dees with multiple gratuitous bows. The two heroes casually talked until Magolor's friend nearby levitated for a small moment, as a familiar, purple heart exuded out of her body. The object flew up to space, leaving more questions for the Waddle Dees.

After the short event, everything stayed silent. "So… Magolor, do you have any idea what that was?" Bandanna Dee asked, breaking the stillness.

Magolor flinched from the question, for he was into the quietude that occurred earlier. "Umm… Susie and I aren't entirely sure where these hearts originated. Ever since these hearts pass through any planet, there will be a calamitous effect with the people around it. Especially those who've left a burden upon themselves."

"How do you know all of this?" Parasol Dee butted in.

"About four weeks ago, Susie and I discovered a meteor shower. Each of these meteors had the shape of a heart, an obsidian purple shell, and a pure purple inside. I'm guessing Susie probably got hit by one of the hearts and lost control to it."

"What do you mean guessing?" Parasol Dee asked.

"I wasn't with her outside. I was cleaning up a small test, we both were studying, but the shower occurred out of nowhere. There was no sign that it will happen and there has never been such a unique event happen in the skies of Halcandra. I did notice a strange behavior coming from Susie, as well as a somewhat odd appearance. As a new day passed by, she started to get pushy. Yesterday, we got into a big argument, in which she won, I was chased out and, well… you know the rest of the story."

"What about her appearance?" Bandanna Dee asked.

"If you couldn't tell, she was emitting an outer purple aura. This is the same case for eyes, though her iris was fully purple." Magolor explained as he scooted himself to a piece of rubble near his ship. He felt a sharp pain around his left side, probably because of the Lor Starcutter's impact to Popstar. "Hey can you carry Susie and I to the inside of my ship. I need to rest my wound."

"There's too much smoke. We'll suffocate from it."

Magolor yawned. "Just take me and Susie somewhere." Magolor yawned once again, and slowly closed his eyes with comfort. Bandanna Dee picked up Magolor and Parasol Dee picked up Susie, and both of them headed to the hill with their stuff. The two placed the wounded allies on two rocks which sat right next to each other. Parasol Dee sat by a trunk of the tree, which was located by the edge of the woods. Bandanna Dee sat by the campfire as he looked back at the changing sky.


As hours pass by, Bandanna Dee started to sizzle up a breakfast for the three helpers. Susie woke up as her nose picked up the scent of bacon and pancakes. Her heart pulsed at a normal, steady pace, and her eyes fluttered as she saw the dazzling rays of the Sun. She noticed a small flesh wound on his friend as well as the black-violet blood around the wound and the clothing. Her hand became unsteady as she moved her hand closer to the wound. Her breathing became fast, and she touched the wound. She saw her friend squeeze his eyes with so much pain. He can feel all of it, and goodness it hurts. Soon, he open his eyes.

"Susie?" He raised his right hand over his eyes, to block off the solar rays.

Susie suddenly formed a hug around the alien with blue clothing. "I'm sorry." she wailed, while tears rolled down to her cheeks. "I'm sorry that I wounded you. I destroyed your Lor, I-"

"Shh. Shh… It's alright." Magolor consoled the confused girl. "It wasn't you who did these things, it was the heart. It's okay." Magolor patted her back and hushing her like how a mother would comfort her baby.

Susie looked at the wound and pointed at it. "Is it bad?"

"It's quite alright." As the two aliens continued their talk, Bandanna Dee called everyone breakfast was ready. Magolor limped his way to Bandanna Dee and Susie helped him along the way.

Parasol Dee was still asleep soundly until he felt something on his face. He felt eight hairy sticks and to him it was the strangest thing he could find. Suddenly, the object bit him on the forehead and he immediately woke up. Parasol Dee jerked from the sitting spider, and rolled off of the hill. He tilted off the steep hill, and tumbled into some small rocks, a couple of trees, and several branches, until a single tree stopped him from his path.

The tree was much larger than the rest of the trees in the forest. That didn't matter to Parasol Dee, but the fact that he was lost in the middle of the woods shook him with worriness. His mind flourished with the creepy crawlies around the forest as well as aggressive bandits. To ease himself, he looked above his position, and his eyes met a couple of glimmering apples. Parasol Dee climbed up the grand tree, and to his amazement, he didn't see any bugs on the twigs. Only a bunch of apples glistened as sunlight reflected off the fruit. Parasol Dee filled his parasol with three apples, one for each of his friends, and one for himself.

Just then, the canopy shook, and the Waddle Dee fell off the ground. "What the heck?" He thought aloud. He looked left and right, up and down, in search of the cause of the shaking. It couldn't have been the wind, there hasn't been a sign of any breeze. And he looked up, and no Dyna Blades flew in the sky. 'Was it the ground that shook? Or…" But he shrugged off that idea, there wouldn't be any way that he would fight that enemy. Besides, he would've been an easy foe to fight off. He started to walk back up the hill, until an apple hit him from his behind. He toppled down face first, and turned to see what was all the comotion, and he realized that the enemy he thought he won't fight, is the enemy who will.

The tree hopped up in the air, landed, and revealed his identity to Parasol Dee. He gasped, but at the same time, he opened up his umbrella, placed his four apples behind a smaller tree, and stood in battle position towards the irritated Whispy Woods. He roared ferociously and began the battle.

He spat out four air bullets at the soldier, of which, the soldier dodged. Parasol Dee sprinted towards Whispy and gave him a few hits. A few apples toppled down from the canopy as well as a few enemies such as a Gordo and two Waddle Doos. Parasol Dee slayed the two Waddle Doos and spared the spiked ball as it bounced away from the battlefield. Finally PD gave the apple tree one final blow.

Upset, Whispy Woods roared once again, a purple aura glowed from the interior of othe tree and he jumped up from the ground. Parasol Dee stepped back a few inches away from his original spot. The tree had hit his climax point, and descended at a rapid pace. Then, the ground shook once the tree landed back in its roots. The impact was so forceful, the radius of the gust reached all the way from the Waddle Dee's camp to Castle Dedede (assuming that it was at least several miles apart). Heck, anyone near the impact was deaf for a long-lasting four minutes until they regained their hearing. As he stood strongly in front of the orange soldier, he gained nutrients with his roots, and grew two times his size. He roared fiercely like an angry King Dedede who demanded more food than ever. He shook his canopy and an excessive amount of apples rained down on the soldier. With his parasol, he completely dodged the mouthful of fruit, and continued to give some hits to his opponent. Then, suddenly, a big blow came out of nowhere. It didn't come from the newbie, he had just hit his foe only once after the new phase. A tear shed out of Whispy's eye and he was diced up into unequal wooden blocks. Apples and leaves fell near the trunk, and on that trunk, revealed a spherical knight who had wielded a legendary sword.

Meanwhile, Bandanna Dee and his friends tried to find Parasol Dee and where Whispy was last seen. The three didn't notice the incident earlier, for they were caught up on eating breakfast. It was then a roar was heard from the bottom of the hill, and noticed a large tree jump up. Once Whispy landed back down, not only did they lose their hearing, they also felt a strong gust of wind which blew them off of the top of the hill.

Susie landed somewhere on the branches, and Magolor was seen sitting on the trunk. Bandanna Dee was stuck on some sticky spider webs. Upon waking up, he witness a large glass shard stuck on the webs. To him it was inconvenient, and decided to carry it along his adventure. The two questioned once the scientist and the mage woke up, and Bandanna replied, "Well, what if this had any use? I found it in a very odd place. Perhaps it was placed there for a reason."

"What kind of useful things could a piece of glass do?" Magolor asked.

"You can stab someone with it." Susie bluntly stated.

Magolor offensively looked at her friend. "Anything else besides combat."

"What if it was a piece of an antique?" Meta Knight suddenly asked, scaring the party of three. Parasol Dee followed his hero, and greeted the three with a 'good morning.'

"For Haltmann's sake, what are you doing here!" Susie asked, startled.

Parasol Dee stepped in front of the knight and told him a brief summary of what occurred earlier. He told him what happened to him, how he upset Whispy Woods, and how Meta Knight suddenly arrived to save him.

With all this information, Susie had one question to ask them, "A spider! Are you serious?" Parasol Dee flinched from this response. "A small spider scared you and instead of going back up the hill, you pick up some apples?!"

"I was hungry okay?" Parasol Dee mumbled as he cowered behind the knight. "Did you guys eat already?"

"Yep. Bandanna Dee's cooking filled us up." Magolor sighed with comfort as he pat his tummy. Parasol Dee growled at him, then his stomach roared. Later, Meta Knight walked away from the group, as he continued to walk straight. "Where are you going?" The Halcandrian mage inquired.

"I'm going… to see the king. I was informed by the King that there was a quest. The details intrigued me."

Parasol Dee became curious. A little too curious. "What was the quest?" He stammered.

"That information is confidential." With that, he continued to walk away from the baffled party. He was already deep in the woods, then he felt a tug from his cape. He turned around in a defensive stance, as it startled Bandanna Dee and his three followers. "What is the meaning of this?!"

"We just want to come with you." Parasol Dee answered. "We believe that King Dedede has been possessed by the same heart that possessed Whispy Woods."

"How do you know? Where did you receive this information?"

"Bandanna Dee witnessed the King, and he had a… umm… he had the purple eyes and a purple glow." He awkwardly described.

The knight grunted and groaned as he turned around to the party members. "FINE! Fine. For the Mirror's sake, who wants to guide me through Castle Dedede to face King Dedede?" Bandanna Dee and Parasol Dee raised their weapons up as the masked swordsman expected the other two to join instead of the desperate Waddle Dees. He sighed behind his mask, "Anyone else? No?"

"Well I can't do it. I've got to repair my ship, for it's been severely damaged. And Susie can't do it, because she's been wounded pretty badly." His first statement was correct, but his second statement was false. Susie's wound wasn't as bad as his own.

Susie only earned a minor concussion from a parasol.

"I am?" Susie asked confused, and Magolor looked at her with a playful wink on his face. The mage only held Susie back, because he didn't want to be alone. He's always felt something whenever he worked with her, but thinking about it always made him blush. The scientist noticed his idea, and played along with it. "Oh yeah, I got hit by Parasol Dee's parasol, and my body also slammed into a thick tree trunk."

The knight, the infamous hero, and his friend narrowed their eyes while the other two gave a wide smile and a mildly sweaty face. Though, Meta Knight didn't care, for he shrugged it off and walked away from the two aliens with no response. He thought to himself that the more people there is, the more of annoyance will carry through the group. Behind the chivalric knight, the other two Waddle Dees yelled out their farewells to Susie and Magolor, and they waved back. The two groups separated away as one headed towards the Lor Starcutter, and the other group headed towards Castle Dedede.


Q: Okay... I think this will be my last time rewriting the same part over and over again.

Boo: Agreed.

Q: Well, I guess we'll see you 'til the next chapter.
