Sorry for the late update, but I'm not a consistant person. I do not own Kirby, in case anyone was curious.
"I told you, Sword, it was just a dream I had. Forget it."
"But sir-"
"I said forget it!"
Sword opened his mouth to protest, but then was elbowed by Blade. He shook his head. Sword shut his mouth and they both walked out the door of their room without another word. Meta Knight watched them go and sighed. I wish, Meta Knight thought as he walked out the door to go guard.
Meta Knight was more than willing to overlook the fact that he woke up leaning against a door and say that Jecra had been just another nightmare. He was willing to overlook the fact there was a cup of cold tea on the table and say he was dreaming. That it was a sleepwalking incident. It would be believable to those who didn't live with him. However, Meta Knight had never walked in his sleep in his life, and Sword Knight and Blade Knight both knew it. He sighed again and jumped up onto one of the castle walls. Below him, Tuff and Kirby were playing soccer, while Tiff was leaning against the opposite wall, reading, as usual. Watching them normally gave him a sense of ease, but not today. What Jecra had said was beginning to bother him.
I hope you liked that little nightmare I sent you. It will give a warning about what's to come.
What was that supposed to mean? Meta Knight wasn't sure, but he did know that Jecra had sent the first nightmare before showing up in person. He contemplated this as he watched Tuff and Kirby try to kick their ball into the goal chalked onto the wall. It wasn't working too well, because Tuff kept kicking Kirby instead of the ball. Tiff was yelling at them, and Tuff was arguing. Kirby was "poyo"ing at them. Meta Knight leaned in a little to try and make out the words. Then, so suddenly that he wasn't expecting it, he was yanked off the wall and onto the stone floor. Meta Knight jumped to his feet and pulled out Galaxia. He turned around and gasped.
He was looking into the face of a skeleton.
He jumped back in surprise and pointed his sword… at nothing. Confused, he looked around, and saw no one was in the hallway with him. Meta Knight glanced over the edge of the wall, but nobody was down there, either. Tiff, Tuff, and Kirby must have gone in to get lunch. Sighing, he put away Galaxia and walked away.
As soon as Meta Knight walked away, a figure appeared from behind the fountain. It watched him walk away with dark eyes before turning to the figure that had been hiding with him.
"See? He didn't even shout," he said. "His pride is what's keeping us from being discovered."
The second figure nodded. "Once he discovers what's going on, it will be too late." The figures grinned wickedly at each other before laughing. Then they walked away to continue with their plan.
I wasn't too happy with the ending, but I was too lazy to fix it. Ch4 coming soon...I hope :)
