Chapter 14

Meta Knight, Tiff, Tuff, Kirby, Sword, Blade and Amber appeared on the demon beast transmitter.

Tiff and Tuff ran to their parents and hugged them tightly

"You scared me so much!" exclaimed Lady Like, "Don't ever do that again!"

If she only knew… this is before fright to the finish

Amber had returned back to normal… completely. She was red haired, hazel eyed, and tanned.

She stared at her hands and laughed, "HAHA! I'm normal again,"

"Poyo!"

Blade stared at her. He was so used to her being dark skinned and black haired. It was a shock to see her original coloration. It made her all the more pretty. (That line was so corny it almost made me sick)

"You look so, wow" Blade said, just staring

"Wonderful reaction," Amber snickered. She rushed over to him and gave him a quick peck on the cheek. Beneath his armor, he blushed so deeply, you would think that he was bleeding.

They were interrupted by a line scream.

They turned to see that Dedede had resumed attempting to beat on Escargoon with his hammer.

"Should I return him to normal?"

Meta Knight sighed, "That would probably be best,"

Sword groaned, "Come on, this is funny!"

Amber might have been mistaken, but for a moment, Meta Knight's eyes flashed pink.

Amber sighed and ran off, in search of Dedede's room.

When she returned, she saw that Escargoon had several huge bumps on his head and Dedede was panting as if he had just run a marathon.

She uncorked the bottle and splashed it in Dedede's face.

Dedede shook his head and looked around.



"Hey! What happened?" He glanced at Escargoon and said, "You should learn to be less clumsy Escargoon, those bumps look nasty,"

Escargoon let out a couple murderous grumbles and stomped out of the throne room. Dedede followed him as he had nothing better to do.

Tuff pulled out of his parents hug and ran over to Amber, "Are you leaving?"

Amber furrowed her brow. She didn't want to leave, but she had family and friends in her own world and other things that needed to be taken care of.

"I'm sorry, but I have to." Blade sighed, he knew this was going to come, but he wanted to put it off as long as he could.

"When do you plan to leave?" Meta Knight asked

"Now, you guys are going on like you're excited to get rid of me?" Amber accused, laughing a little, "I might leave tomorrow morning at the least,"

"We'll miss you a lot," Tiff said, Amber hugged her, Tiff seemed like a little sister at times… if your little sister was an anime character.

"I'll miss you too," Amber said, then, she noticed that everyone was staring at her. She stood up, blushing, "Well I will,"

"Poyo! Poyo!" Kirby chirped, jumping up and down and flailing his arms

Everyone laughed, even Meta Knight a little, they all left the throne room, except for Blade, who lingered, Amber noticed that he wasn't beside her and she walked over to him.

"What's up?"

"Are you sure you have to go?" Blade looked at his feet

"Yeah, I have my family and friends and everything I left behind in my world," She hugged him, trying to make him feel better. Usually this would have worked, but not this time.

Blade pulled out of her grasp and walked out of the throne room, leaving Amber there by herself. She wanted to stay, but she belonged back on Earth. She wanted to bring Blade with her, but she doubted people in her world would come to accept Blade as the people in Cappy Town had accepted her.

She followed behind him, thinking about what she would do when she got home. She missed her family dearly, but she had come to think of Meta Knight, Sword, Blade, Tiff, Tuff, and Kirby as some really weird, quirky family.



She reached Tiff's and Tuff's room and put her ear to the door. Inside she heard Sir Ebrum and Lady Like interrogating their children about what happened on Nightmare'd ship.

Amber knocked twice and entered.

"Hello Amber, how are you?" Lady Like asked,

You should know, you saw me all of 5 minutes ago… Amber thought

"Alright, you?"

"Just fine,"

"What are you doing?"

"We were just asking Tiff and Tuff what happened when were downloaded to Nightmare's ship,"

"They rescued me and we ran for our lives," Amber explained simply

Sir Ebrum nodded, "Yes, they mentioned that, would you mind putting it into detail though?"

So Amber recapped all of chapter 13 and gasped in exasperation when she finally finished. Sir Ebrum and Lady Like were looking at their children in shock. They were torn between horror and pride.

"Dear, I have the distinct feeling that our children have more brains than us at times," Sir Ebrun exclaimed

Lady Like nodded but said nothing.

Amber stretched and looked around. She didn't like silence, she always said something stupid to break it.

Finally, Tuff said, "Mom, can I go play soccer with Kirby and Iroo?"

"Yes, just be back before dark," Lady Like muttered and Tuff ran out the door

Now it was just the four of them. Eventually, Amber and Tiff said goodbye and left.

As they walked down the hall, Tiff asked, "Will you ever come back after this?"

Amber pondered this question. She hadn't really thought about it, "I'm not sure. I might, but not in the near future. That is, if they haven't destroyed the demon beast transporter in my world."

"I bet Blade isn't going to take your leaving well," Tiff said, "he loves you," she put emphasis on the word 'love' that annoyed Amber. She elbowed her friend playfully and kept walking



"Probably, I'm gonna miss him," Amber sighed

Night eventually came. Amber had roamed Cappy Town, going down to the ocean and saying 'Hi' to Kine. Amber found that he must have hit his head on a bit of coral or something, the fish seemed to be down a few IQ points. After she tired of talking to him, and after she saw the sun was setting, she left, hearing Kine call after her, "Tell Tiff I said hi!"

She returned to the castle. It was a relief not to turn into WereCat anymore and she relished the feeling.

She walked up to Tiff's and Tuff room to see that someone had set out a pillow and blanket on the couch. Tuff was watching Channel DDD while Tiff sat in a corner, reading.

"You guys going to bed?" Amber asked with a yawn

"Not yet," Tuff said, not averting his eyes from the screen.

Amber climbed up onto the couch and lay her head on the pillow. Almost immediately, she fell asleep.

The Next Day…

Amber awoke late that morning, it was almost noon. She stretched and walked down the hallways. She couldn't seem to find anyone. She was just starting to wonder if she had slept to the next century and this was all but a ruin when something jumped her.

Sword had been hiding behind a corner and when he heard Amber's footsteps, he took his advantage and leapt out in front of her.

Amber screamed and punched him in the face.

Sword fell to the ground, laughing a little, "That's some punch you've got there,"

"And you're laughing because…"

Sword shrugged, "It didn't hurt too badly, after all, I was wearing my helmet."

Amber shook her hand; it was throbbing from the force of the punch.

"By the way, are you leaving soon?" Sword asked

"Why? Can't wait to get rid of me?"

Sword chuckled again, "Yup,"

Amber punched him in the arm.



"I'm probably going to leave in about half an hour. I want to say goodbye to everyone." Amber started walking again, Sword ran to her side, "Let me come with you, I know where everyone is,"

And so Sword lead her to the throne room, where Tiff, Tuff, Blade, Kirby, and Meta Knight were scattered about the room. Meta Knight was sitting atop King Dedede's throne, as it was almost the only high thing in the room.

"The throne suits you Meta Knight, maybe you can get all the villager's to over through Dedede and you could be the new king," Amber smiled

Meta Knight's eyes flashed pink, "Maybe…"

"Poyo!" yelled Kirby, as if agreeing

Tiff and Tuff approached her. "It was good seeing you again Amber," Tiff said, "Tell Janie and Christy I said 'hello',"

Amber nodded

"See ya," was all Tuff said.

Then Blade walked up and hugged her, "Are you going to come by again?"

Amber smiled, he was so sweet, "You can count on it,"

She gave him a small kiss and he walked off stumbling a bit.

Amber walked over to Meta Knight who had stayed where he was.

Amber nodded smiling. Meta Knight returned the gesture.

"Aw, the heck with it," Amber picked him up and squeezed him like a plushie.

Beneath his mask, Meta Knight blushed.

"You better stay away from her Meta Knight, she's mine," Blade joked.

"Shut up and I'll make sure your death is quick and painless," Meta Knight threatened

Amber set him down, Meta Knight tried to look all deep and mysterious but it was hard after you've just been hugged half to death by a 17 year old.

Amber hugged Sword next, at first he was a bit reluctant, but finally he gave in hand gave her a quick hug in return.

"Poy-yo!" yelled Kirby, trying to get Amber's attention.



"What? You think I would forget you?" she walked over to Kirby and picked him up. She tossed him in the air and coughed him again, causing Kirby to squeal with excitement.

Finally, after what seemed like an hour, she climber on top the demon beast transporter and waved goodbye. Meta Knight, being the closest to the controls, pressed the SEND button.

Lights flashed and machinery whirred until Amber had disappeared.

Earth...

When Amber next opened her eyes, she was looking at the mall's food court, her sudden appearance had caused many people to gasp or even scream.

Amber stepped off the carousel/transporter and onto the ground. She walked up the stairs and out the door. She walked all the way home, relieved that she was back where she belonged.

When she reached her house, she knocked on the door. Her mother answered and cried out in shock.

"Jim! Jim come here! Our daughter's back!"

Amber's father rushed to the doorway and gasped when he saw Amber. They both embraced her so tightly her eyes bugged out a little.

"Oh my god we missed you so much! Where have you been!" her father was staring at her intently.

"Didn't you read my note? I was in Cappy Town!"

Amber's mother rolled her eyes, "That one Kirby show? How did you get there?"

"Are you serious?" Amber asked, "Didn't Janie and Christy tell you?"

"Yes they told us, I can't believe you didn't say anything about it! I'm concerned about you turning into that horrid monster your sister described." Amber's dad looked truly concerned for his daughter's wellbeing.

"So, what exactly did you do while I was away?"

Amber's house, about a week ago…

Amber's mom knocked on her daughter's door and opened it without waiting for an answer.

"Amber honey, what's wrong?"

Amber wasn't there though. There was a note lying on her bed and a string of sheets leading out the window.



"Jim! Something terrible has happened!" Amber's mom screamed downstairs.

When Amber's dad came up, he surveyed the seen. "Look, she left a note," (see chapter two)

As they read, horror was etched across their faces, they didn't believe what she had wrote. Not a word of it. They went downstairs to ask Janie.

"Janie, your sister has run away," Amber's mom started, "No!" Janie yelled in shock.

"Yes, she said something about Kirby in her note, is anything in it true?"

Janie took the note from her parents. Once she had read it thoroughly, she handed it back to them. "It's all true, she didn't leave out anything,"

Her parents sighed, they couldn't exactly believe a 9 year old. Amber had mentioned that Christy had been in this too. So they called her up.

The line rang on the other side for a few seconds before Christy picked up.

"Hel-lo?"

"Hello Christy. It Karon and Jim, Amber's parents,"

"Hey! What's up Mr. and Mrs. S?"

"Amber's gone and she left a note that said she waqs going to Dreamland to find a cure for an injury that a made up character gave her. Do you know anything about this?"

There was silence on the other line

"Christy are you still there?"

"Yea, it's just that… Amber didn't want us to tell anyone,"

"Christy, Amber could be in danger and we need to know what's going on."

"Fine, Amber, Janie and I met three Kirby characters; Kirby, Tiff, and Meta Knight. They needed help getting home so we decided we would give them a hand. But there was a monster out to get them. To make a long story short, we killed it, Amber got scratched, and it cursed her so she turns into WereCat."

Amber's mom and dad just stood there in silence. Finally, Amber's mom let out a choked, "Thanks Christy, goodbye,"

When they hung up, they just stared at each other. Eyes wide in speechless horror.

"Karon, she's be alright, she's a resourceful, smart girl." Amber's dad hugged his wife in reasurance



This didn't stop her from heaving a few dry sobs.

Back in the present…

Amber sat her parents and Janie down at the table and told them about her adventure. They were particularly surprised when Amber mentioned that she had been abducted onto Nightmare's ship.

When she was finished, her family stared at her as if they expected her to say something else. Finally, Janie yelled, "That is so AWSOME!!"

Amber laughed. It was good to be home.

One year later… Cappy Town…

Blade sighed, he had all but forgotten Amber. There wasn't a day that he didn't think about her.

He heard some commotion coming from around the corner and Tuff almost ran into him.

"Blade help me find Sword, Meta Knight, and Tiff! I've gotta show you something!"

They rushed around the castle gathering up the group.

"Tuff, what the heck it up with you?" Tiff asked, Kirby walking next to her

"Poyo?"

"It's in the throne room! You'll understand when you see it."

When they finally all reached the throne room, they saw Dedede sitting up on his throne, a black, rectangular box in his hand.

Meta Knight snatched it from him, ignoring his master's angry protests.

"What is it?" asked Sword, stepping in for a closer view.

"It's a VCR tape," exclaimed Meta Knight, turning it over in his hands, "And it's from Amber,"

With that, they all ran to Meta Knight's room as quick as they could. They put the tape in the VCR set and Meta Knight pressed 'play'.

At first it was just static, but then something started to show up. It was Amber, straitening the camera.

She smiled into the lens. "Hi guys! Hope Everything is alright where you are!"

Then, two other figure's appeared next to Amber. Janie and Christy.

"HIIIIII Meta Knight!" Janie yelled, "Wazup?" asked Christy, making the peace sign.



"Anyhoos, I thought I would make this video to keep in contact with you, I wanted to tell you that I miss you all so much and that I wish I could come and see you."

Christy pushed Amber out of the way and said into the camera, "What she means by everyone is Blade. Right Amber?"

Janie joined it, "Amber and Blade sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G!"

Everyone laughed while Blade blushed so deeply it made the rest of his body look pale.

Amber got up and shoved them out of the way, "Shut up! This thing is actually on you know? So maybe, if my parents are gone, I might come and visit you, but I'm not making any promises. See ya!"

"Also Amber wants to give a big smooch to Blade even though she won't admit it!" Christy yelled

Amber tackled Christy, knocking the camera over, turning it off.

They just stood there, staring at the blank screen, not knowing what to do.

"Well, she could be back," exclaimed Tiff, cutting through the scilence.

"Poyo!" chirped Kirby, he seemed almost sure of it!

Finally!! I'm finished! I hope you like this chapter and if you didn't, I liked that you read it anyways. Please review! ;p
