Synopsis for Chapter 2:

King Dedede's grand plan has begun. He wants to turn Tiff against her friends and make her "one of them". Meta Knight had a feeling something bad was going to happen, he never did anything about it. (WARNING: Character death.).

Chapter 2—Pink is the Color of Brainwashing

"Okay, Tiff. Today we're going to talk about colors and they're varying emotions." Escargoon stated. He wrote red, blue, pink and black on the board.

"Red is the symbol of love, blue is the symbol of depression, pink is the symbol of the brain, meaning smart and that stuff, and black symbolizes, death, unfortunately." Tiff wrote down the colors and what they meant.

"Why did you write pink down on the board, Mr. Escargoon?" Tiff asked.

"Because. This is why." Escargoon stated. He squeezed strawberries onto Tiff's hair.

"Hey! Dedede, Escargoon is pouring juice on my hair." Tiff said.

"Nonono, I didn't eat the last pudding packet…"King Dedede stated, turning to his side.

"Finished!" Escargoon stated. He gave Tiff a mirror.

"AHHH!" Tiff screamed. She screamed so loud it woke King Dedede.

"What the? No, officer I swear, I didn't light the forest fire!" King Dedede blurted out. But, no officer could be found.

"You know what strawberry juice does to hair?" Tiff stated.

"It stains the hair. You can't remove it." Escargoon replied.

"How did you know that?" Tiff asked.

"Hey, I'm a snail. I happen to read books too." Escargoon replied.

"This is all apart of your transformation, my pupil." King Dedede stated.

"Transformation? Into what?" Tiff asked again.

"Into….uh…a fine young adult!" King Dedede replied, sweat dropping.

"Oh. That makes sense!" Tiff replied. Escargoon dug his hands into the juice, making a lightning-like zigzag pattern straight down her hairline.

"We'll call you The Thunder Queen!" Escargoon stated.

"Thunder Queen?" Tiff replied.

"Yes. Now, let's back to the lesson." Escargoon replied, turning back to the board. King Dedede went back to sleeping.

"Tuff, you need to get Tiff out of there, fast!" Meta Knight warned.

"Why? She likes it there! I don't want her to hate me." Tuff replied.

"If you get her out of there, you can save her before King Dedede makes his "changes"." Meta Knight replied.

"Changes? Like what?" Tuff asked again.

"It starts off small. Like he makes changes to hair color/hair style. Next thing, it's the way she dresses. And finally, he can change her aspect on life." Meta Knight stated.

"What do you mean by that?" Tuff asked.

"He can make her fight against us, instead of against him." Meta Knight finished.

"You're kidding!" Tuff replied.

"I told you before. I don't kid around." Meta Knight replied, turning around.

"Meta Knight, we need your help." Blade stated.

"With what?" Meta Knight asked.

"With Kirby, he's seemed to have disappeared!" Blade replied. Tuff gasped.

"When do you seem him last?" Meta Knight asked.

"He went into Whispy Woods, I don't know why, though." Blade replied. Meta Knight sighed.

"Thank you. At least you told me where he went." Meta Knight replied. He and Blade walked out of the room.

"Oh, Kirby…." Tuff said, silently.

Whispy Woods.

"Oh, hey there Kirby!" Whispy said. Kirby looked up at the talking tree.

"Don't you remember me? I'm Whispy!" Whispy replied.

"Poyo!" Kirby replied, excitedly.

"Hehe, that's our little pink puffball! How've you been?" Whispy asked.

"Poyo. Poyo!" Kirby replied.

"Sire, you think it's a good time to start the plan?" Escargoon asked.

"Sure, get the secret device." King Dedede replied.

"Right away, sire." Escargoon replied, slithering away.

"Where'd Escargoon go?" Tiff asked.

"He went to get more….teaching materials. That's it." King Dedede replied. Escargoon came back with a metallic helmet.

"You call that a teaching device?" Tiff asked.

"It's the Brain Helper 2000!" King Dedede stated, "Finest learning device in Cappy Town!" Tiff's eyes lit up. Escargoon put the helmet on Tiff's head and strapped it snugly around her neck.

"Now, we're going to talk about, Destroying Kirby!" Escargoon stated. The words "destroying Kirby" echoed through the helmet and into Tiff's brain. Suddenly the pupils in her eyes disappeared.
"Sire. It worked!" Escargoon stated. King Dedede was in shock.

"I knew it! I knew it'd work!" King Dedede said, excitedly.
"Master, how may I destroy Kirby for you?" Tiff asked, like a drone.

"Tiff, take this sword, and find Kirby for me. Then, kill him." King Dedede stated.

"Yes, my master." Tiff replied, grabbing the sword.

"He's in Whispy Woods!" Escargoon stated, "You should find him talking to Whispy!"

"How'd you know all that?" King Dedede asked.

"You're not the only you has bright ideas. I told Kirby to talk to Whispy. He's there right now; completely oblivious to the fact this was a trap!" Escargoon stated.

"That's my favorite mollusk!" King Dedede replied, grabbing Escargoon and giving him a noogie.

"Oh, sire. That hurts." Escargoon replied. King Dedede let go.

"Sorry, Escargoon." King Dedede replied.

(Author's Note: I DO NOT hate Kirby. The only reason he's dying is for the plotline. That's it.)

Whispy Woods.

"So, Kirby, how have you been doing?" Whispy asked.

"Poyo. Poyo!" Kirby replied.

"Excellent! That's good to hear!" Whispy replied. Tiff stalked her prey. The words "destroy Kirby" still ringing in her ears.

"Tiff, so good of you to join us!" Whispy replied. She coldly, swiped a branch off Whispy.

"My, are we in a bad mood today!" Whispy stated.

"Shut up. Destroy Kirby!" Tiff stated. Kirby just stood there.

"Kirby, don't just stand there, run!" Whispy pleaded. Kirby did just that, Tiff followed. She began chasing Kirby around, with the sword pointed at Kirby.

"Don't run, Kirby! I just want to kill you!" Tiff replied. Kirby found himself cornered. Tiff came slowly up, like the famous villains do when they've cornered their prey. She gave several quick motions with the sword. Kirby just fell, dead. Tiff just licked the sword. Whispy was shocked.

"Tiff! Why would you kill Kirby!" Whispy asked.

"Shut up! Or you'll face the same fate!" Tiff said, coldly. Whispy just stopped talking.

Word quickly spread about Kirby being killed.

"Sire, she did it. She killed Kirby." Escargoon said.

"Told you, I knew she'd do it!" King Dedede replied. Tiff walked in.

"I have completed my task. What do you want me to do now, my Master?" Tiff asked.

"Hmm, how about you pay my dear friend, Meta Knight a visit? I'm sure he could use the company." King Dedede stated. Tiff licked her lips.

"It will be my pleasure." Tiff replied. She then got up and walked out of the throne room.
"Sire, I thought you told me to place the setting on "Destroy Kirby" and just Kirby." Escargoon stated.

"Not to worry. Tiff's a smart girl. She'll know what to do when she sees Meta Knight." King Dedede replied.

END Chapter 2!
