Chapter 3
I opened one eye. I was sitting on a chair. I realised I was in a court.
"Whaa..." I said…
I looked over. I saw a giant Nruff in a judges' robe. He was also wearing a powdered wig.
He looked over at me, glaring. "You have committed crimes against our people in Dream Land and the surrounding areas."
"Firstly… You gave the plaintiff Red, a trident."
"Red? You're…" I screamed in horror!
"I'm sorry, dude! They forced me!" he replied.
"There must be some other way—"
"SILENCE!" the Nruff judge shouted. "Do not speak!"
He continued. "DeDe, you have been charged on several occasions. This means that your appeal, if you choose to give one, will not be taken lightly."
"All I did was give Red a trident—"
"SILENCE!" he shouted. "YOU HAVE ADMITTED GUILT!"
Red looked at me, and gave me a thumbs down.
"Oh shut up, Red!"
"The case is closed. The defendant has admitted guilt. That is all."
The watchers of the case stood up, and began to walk out of the door. Whammy was in the crowds. He got up last, and winked at me.
I was being taken down to Castle DeDeDe. The big fat flopper was absent as usual. The quacking Gaw Gaw who took me to that quacking general Chips looked at me. He quacking smiled at me. I'll quacking get him when I get my chance. There was no chance of me getting un-binded** by these guards. They were armed with spears, and were quite big for their size, being twice as big as me.
I was walked all over the castle, when they finally got to the underground dungeon. They lifted me up, opened the door, and threw me into the cell. Literally.
I coughed. Do you know why? It was dusty in there.
Red must've been killed or something; because it took him FIVE hours to bail me out!
"Oooooh." He was all like. "I'm so stupid so oi'll baeil yoo out later when I could hove been wheeped… o no I'll wait steel"
Then he came.
"Heyyyy you ideoit how did you get inteor zeis situashion hey DeDe hey"
I replied with a simple "Well, since I'm so awesome, I was radiating too much Awesomeso waste. I had to be locked up to stop other people from being awesome like me."
So we had a chat, and then he bailed me out. USING MY TRIDENT. Man, that trident landed me in the slammer. Couldn't he at least give it back to me? Seriously.
We managed to get out of Castle IdiotIdiotIdiot, before the guards caught us—
"WAIL! OOF! STOP IT!"
I was hearing Red's cries for help, when he was being whipped. Boy, there must be blood all over his…
"Come with me." A voice sounded.
There was a weird looking Waddle Dee beside me. I'll have to describe it…
It had a silky armour thing all over his body, but his eyes were orange. Its skin appeared to be black. His hands were covered by yellow gloves. It had Waddle Dee-like feet.
Anyway, back to the point. This weird Dee thing had found me behind the castle.
"Who are you?" I asked, confused.
"That does not matter. Come." He took me by the hand, and into the castle.
"THE GUARDS WILL BE—"
"Shh." The thing covered my mouth, and took me to the dorms.
"You come from where?" I was confused.
"Halcranda."
"And what are you?"
"A Halcrandan Dee."
I stepped back. Wait, there was another planet in this battle-to-the-doom universe?
"Why are you here?"
"You're the chosen one."
I stared at it.
"I am Hallab, Halcranda's messenger, and recruiter. And for your information, I'm a girl."
"There are female Dees? I didn't know." I replied.
"Enough of your cheek."
"I really didn't know."
Hallab stepped back. She continued on. "You are the chosen hero to save Halcranda."
"Can't I check on my friend Red first—"
"No."
So by the end of the day, I'd be rocketed off to an alien planet. Great.
Well, at least I'd be free from the guards.
