Hey, I finally updated this story. Yep... I won't keep you from it, so enjoy, I hope...
"Galacta Knight?" Sword exclaimed, leaning forward towards the screen to get a closer look at the pink puffball. "You mean the most powerful warrior in the universe? That Galacta Knight?"
"Yes," Meta Knight said shortly, not wanting to go into further detail.
Blade looked confused. "I thought that was just a legend," he said, looking skeptically at the screen.
Before Meta Knight could respond, a bright light began to flash on the control panel. Meta Knight looked and saw it was the communication light, signaling that someone was trying to talk with them. Meta Knight glanced quickly at the number before accepting the call.
A bigger image of Galacta Knight appeared on the screen before them. His red eyes pierced into the room, searching before they rested upon Meta Knight. Meta Knight stared calmly back.
"Meta Knight," Galacta Knight said coldly.
"Galacta Knight," Meta Knight said in the same tone.
At this point, Tiff, Tuff, Kirby, Dedede, and Escargoon had all entered the control room and were watching the scene.
"What brings you here?" Galacta Knight asked.
"Don't act so innocent, Galacta Knight,"Meta Knight snapped. "I know it was you."
"Me?"
"You were the one who raised Jecra, Garlude, and Sir Arthur from their graves to make them come after me, and I want you to call them off."
Galacta Knight's eyes flashed a little in surprise, but that was all the emotion he showed. A silence fell on the Halberd as Galacta Knight thought this over. Meta Knight glared at him impatiently.
Suddenly, Galacta Knight's eyes shone with amusement, and Meta Knight knew he was grinning under his mask.
That's never a good sign.
"I have to admit Meta Knight, you figured out it was me much quicker tha I expected. I suppose I have Jecra to thank for that, and yes, I know that you tortured the information out of Jecra," Galacta Knight interrupted Meta Knight before Meta Knight could put his thought into words. "That was a factor I hadn't counted on, as I assumed you gave up your ruthlessness a long time ago." Meta Knight tensed at this, but Galacta Knight didn't wait for him to say anything before continuing. "However, as I'm sure you know by now, my new minions cannot die, and you certainly can't kill me. If you could, you would have done so a long time ago." Galacta Knight paused long enough to smirk at the masked knight.
"So, clearly, you are at my mercy, and I'm going to keep sending my skeletons until you are finally driven to insanity, killed, or I get a reason stop. I'd prefer it was one of the first two endings, however."
With that, the screen went dark. Galacta Knight had broken off the conversation, and now, on the screen, it showed Galacta Knight as he turned and flew off.
Meta Knight's eyes burned crimson as he slammed his fist down on the control panel in frustration. Sword and Blade looked about ready to strangle someone as well. Tiff looked confused at Meta Knight.
"Who was that, Meta Knight?" Tiff asked. "And what did he mean by minions?"
Meta Knight took a deep, calming breathe, turning his eyes to their normal yellow. He then proceeded to telling those who had just entered the scene about the skeletons that plagued him, and how he'd found out from Jecra that Galacta Knight was behind them and where Meta Knight could find him.
When he concluded his story, he turned to Sword and Blade before anyone could ask any questions he wasn't comfortable answering.
"I was hoping we wouldn't have to resort to this, but I'm afraid it's necessary." Meta Knight said. "We're going to have to go after him and use force." Meta Knight turned to the wheel. "Turn up the engines to full speed, Sword. We're going to have to move fast to catch up to him."
Sword Knight did as he was asked, and then the Halberd rocketed off to pursue Galacta Knight.
Sorry about the lateness and such. I want to say I won't keep you waiting on the next chapter, but I just don't know when that'll go up.
Thanks for reading :)
