Meta Knight walked up the rocky volcano. He thought he had abandoned all annoying things, but he was wrong. The sand the scratched his paintwork had been released with spikes that repeatedly nearly ripped his beloved cape.
Plus, his lighting had no effect on the rocks. Sort of like real life, he gathered, but it was still annoying. Yet another Lava Creature ran at him. Meta Knight back flipped over it, getting behind it. Meta Knight swung his sword, knocking its sword out of its hand. Then, it lighting-bolted it, knowing his sword would have no effect on it. He really wanted to improve his average had to hand combat skills without a sword or knife (not that he had a knife), but logic suggested his had would be burnt. Heat and armour didn't mix amazingly well.
Meta Knight at this point just decided to fly up. He knew he could have done that anyway, but he didn't want to spoil the boredom that would occur. Sighing to himself, he reached the top of the volcano. This one didn't appear to be spilling out Lava, or magma as it really should be called, but it was still active. There was smoke.
A closer looked however revealed its more sinister purpose. It was spawning Magma Creatures. One of the Magma Creatures spawned with a Shotgun, and began firing at Meta Knight. After narrowing dodging 7 shots, one of which brushed past his cape, and lighting-bolted the Magma Creature of the Volcano.
Noticing the new knockback, he frowned, but another Magma Creature with a Shotgun fired at him, preventing him from dwelling on it. Meta Knight dodged the attack easily, and used his lightning bolts like a whip, destroying 7 Lava Creatures, including the one with a shotgun, and, one with a knife and whip. Backing off the Volcano's top, he whipped them a few more. Glancing around, he saw 3 more Volcano's in a Square. In the centre of it, a lava pool with a beacon.
Flying towards it, he was shot at. Seeing it and barely reacting in time, his cape got a bullet hole in it. A Sniper. Dodging more shots, he saw the culprit, a Lava Creature with a Sniper Rifle. It was standing on Rocks. Using lighting, he fired a bolt at them. The Lava Creature knew not that it wouldn't affect him, and dived out in the open. Meta Knight reacted quickly, shocking him instantly.
Confident he was safe, Meta Knight flew at the Beacon. Near it, he saw another Shadow. Working out my now it was a Dark Stone defence, he flew at the creature. He couldn't help thinking he was lucky to always land near the Dark Stone. An entire planet, and he lands near them. This confused him. He swopped now, and swung his Sword in an aerial drive by.
Shadow deflected it, and threw a gold Knife at Meta Knight, whom dodged it. Meta Knight turned at used Lighting on Shadow. He knew he couldn't rely on his new powers, but he was in a rush. He wanted to leave this place, he was getting very hot in his armour, and was worried he sustain a burn or Blister. Taking it off was out the question. Who would take him seriously then? Apart from Kirby…
Meta Knight flew to the Dark Stone and picked it up. Glancing at it, he put in his cape. Luckily, they were small enough to fit in there. Glancing at his cape, he noticed how close the shot was to the Dark Stone. Maybe, the Sniper was trying to knock them out of his grasp ad into Lava, where they could get them. By that logic, maybe their better shots than he tho-
A shot rang through the air. Meta Knight collapsed to the ground, blood pouring out. Meta Knight pulled the Dark Stones close to him, as well as his sword. ''Kirby'' Meta Knight whispered. There was so much he never told him. Holding his sword tightly in his hand, he closed his eyes…
