Chapter 27: Sora's Dreamland Adventure Part 5
Dedede and Escargoon appeared behind a bush near the Fountain of Dreams with dizzy looks. The two villains got up and brushed themselves off.
Escargoon: Well, your highness. I believe this was the most failed attempt ever to defeat Kirby.
Dedede: SILENCE! So Kirby foiled my plans again. We'll get him next time. All we have to do is call Ganondorf and...
Before he could finish, he saw Ganondorf walk up to the Fountain of Dreams. Dedede and Escargoon hid back behind the bushes and watched to see what Ganondorf was doing. Ganondorf looked up at the Fountain of Dreams and smiled.
Ganondorf: Perfect. Everything is going as planned. That dumb penguin, Dedede led us right into our trap. Once those brats place the Star Rod back up, Nightmare will be revived and used it's powers to take over Dreamland.
Ganondorf laughed and disappeared, leaving a baffled Dedede and Escargoon.
Escargoon: Well, sire. We've been made fools of the entire time.
Dedede: GRR! First Nightmare Enterprises and now Ganondorf. I hate it when they trick me like that and no one tricks Dedede like that. Escargoon, there's only one way to get back at those punks.
Escargoon: Sire, you're not saying that we're going to have to-
Dedede: I'm afraid we're going to have to h...h...h...help Kirby.
Escargoon fainted upon hearing those words. The gang finally arrived at the Fountain of Dreams.
Sora: Kirby, how about doing the honors?
Kirby nodded and walked over to the fountain with the Star Rod. Just then, Dedede jumped out from behind the bushes and grabbed Kirby's feet which caused everyone to gasp.
Dedede: Kirby! You gotta believe me here. Whatever you do, don't put the Star Rod back onto the fountain.
Tiff: And why should he listen to you? Leave Kirby alone.
Dedede: No, I'm telling the truth. If you put the Star Rod back in the fountain, something terrible will happen.
Kirby didn't listen and used the Star Rod to knock Dedede back. Kirby jumped onto the fountain and placed the Star Rod back on. But when he did, something terrible did happen. The dark clouds came brewing in and the water from the fountain has turned black. The Star Rod flew up into the sky and a blue ball appeared in the sky as well, laughing maniacally.
Sora: What is that?
Meta-Knight: That, my friend is Nightmare.
Dedede: I told you. And you all didn't believe me.
Tiff: Wow! Dedede actually told us the truth for once.
Tuff: I though Kirby got rid of Nightmare.
Rick: Well, we have to stop him again, or Dreamland is doomed.
Sora: Leave it to us. Me and Kirby will take this creep down once and for all.
Sora used the Dino Egg to release Yoshi once again. Yoshi pulled out the Smash Ball and started to grow wings. Yoshi became a Super Dragon and Sora rode him. The Star Rod fell back into the ground and Kirby grabs it.
Tiff: Kirby needs to get up there. KABU, Send us the warp star!
In the distance, a giant brown tiki like statue heard the call and responded.
Kabu: WARP STAR!
A giant yellow star flew out of the tiki's mouth and flew towards Kirby. Kirby jumped on the warp star and joined Sora and Yoshi.
Meta-Knight: Be careful, keyblade master. And you too, Kirby. Thousands of us battled him and we still couldn't win. But you two are strong enough to take him on.
Sora, Yoshi, and Kirby flew off into space. They followed the blue ball to the moon.
Sora: Nightmare! Stop what your doing or else
Nightmare: Or else what, child? You fools don't realize who your up against. I rule Dreamland, now.
Sora: We'll see about that.
Nightmare: Very well. I shall have my revenge against Kirby and destroy the keyblade wielder at the same time. Dreamland and it's entire population shall bow down before my power.
The blue ball then transformed into a giant figure wearing a blue cape around his body and a giant white face with a wicked smile.
Sora: Man, that monster almost lives up to VenomMyotismon on the creepiness level.
Nightmare fired stars at our heroes from his white skinny hand which they dodged. Yoshi swallowed some of them, turning them into eggs. He shot more stars, which Kirby countered with his Star Rod.
Nightmare: TAKE THIS!
He fired a yellow beam from his mouth which our heroes dodged. Yoshi threw his eggs at Nightmare, doing some damage. Kirby fired some stars at Nightmare, dealing some more damage. Nightmare got back up and cast Thunder. It hits our heroes. He then fired dark waves at them, which they dodged.
Sora: Man, he's really powerful. We better finish him off.
Yoshi uses his Super Fire Breath to burn Nightmare. Sora uses the Strike Raid to do some damage to Nightmare. Finally, Kirby fired a giant star beam which hits Nightmare. Suddenly, Nightmare began glowing with lights all around his chest.
Nightmare: NO! HOW COULD I, THE UNSTOPPABLE NIGHTMARE, BE DEFEATED BY THAT YOUNG STAR WARRIOR AND THE KEYBLADE MASTER IN TRAINING? YOU MAY HAVE DEFEATED ME, BUT YOU'LL NEVER DEFEAT LORD GANONDORF!
He then exploded, causing a piece of the moon to disappear. The citizens of Dreamland cheered for Sora and Kirby as they returned to the ground. Yoshi returned to his summon gem. Plucky stood in front of the heroes, trying to act all popular.
Plucky: Thank you. Thank you. There will be autograph signing later.
Plucky got thrown a pie in his face, As the citizens surrounded the heroes, congratulating them. Sora got a crystal which upgraded his Thunder to Thundara, and an Ansem Report left by Nightmare. Meta-Knight watched from a distance and had a tear coming down his face.
Meta-Knight: Thank you my friends. My fellow Star Warriors are now avenged. We shall find a new home to settle down in and start a new life, now that Nightmare is gone for good.
Sword: And it's all thanks to Kirby and that spiky haired kid.
The three knights left together knowing that they could start a happy new life. Kirby held the Star Rod getting ready to put it back in the fountain.
Ebrum: Thank you, keyblade master, for everything. I'm sorry for the way I've acted. When that creature took over me, I was doing my best to protect my children and it got out of hand.
Tiff: By the way dad, why did you smash the crystal star.
Sora: Yeah. What was so important about it?
Ebrum: It was the key to revealing the keyhole.
Tiff: Daddy.
Lady Like: Darling.
Sora and Plucky groaned and smacked their foreheads.
Plucky: So it was right under our noses that whole time.
Dizzy: Now, what we do?
Ebrum: Don't worry. The Star Rod also has the power to reveal the keyhole. You should be able to find it.
Tiff: Where do we go find it?
Ebrum: It's in Kirby's secret area of course.
He turned to Sora.
Ebrum: Key bearer, I have one final request. Would you kindly seal the keyhole? I want to see that the nightmare is truly over.
Plucky: Please, don't say nightmare anymore. It was bad enough just to fight one.
Everyone started laughing and Sora's group left. They returned to the castle and proceeded downstairs to Kirby's secret area. Kirby took out the Star Rod and fired a beam at the engravement which revealed the keyhole. Sora took his keyblade out and fired a tiny beam at the keyhole. Upon contact, the keyhole disappears with a click. Sora put his keyblade away as Tiff approached him.
Tiff: Hey, Sora. Tell me what your world is like.
Sora: Oh, about that. We're really sorry for lying to you. I would have never lied, except that someone forced me to.
He looked at Plucky.
Plucky: Don't look at me like that.
Tuff: Aw, forget about that. We forgive you. Kirby forgives you too.
Kirby jumped up and down saying poyo.
Sora: I think he forgives us.
Tiff: If you can visit other worlds, then so can I.
She then put her arms up and spun around slowly.
Tiff: So many places. So many people to meet. Kirby will take me there one day. Won't you Kirby?
Kirby jumped up and down again.
Fololo: Well, do us a favor...
Falala: When you find it...
Fololo & Falala: Leave us out of if.
Sora: Well, we have to get going.
Rick: Don't you wanna stay for the Cappy Town parade?
Plucky: Sorry. We would love to, but we can't.
Sora: We have our adventure to worry about. But we'll never forget any of you. Especially Kirby.
Kirby ran up to Sora and handed him a keychain shaped like a star. Sora equipped the keychain and it transformed into a yellow keyblade with a star for the teeth.
Sora: Cool! think I'll call this one, the Warpstar. Thanks, Kirby.
Kirby: Sora...and Kirby...friends.
Tiff: Kirby, you spoke your first sentence. Sora, thanks for everything.
Sora: No problem.
Kirby then walked up to Dizzy and offered his hand.
Kirby: Kirby...and Dizzy...friends.
Dizzy then begins to form tears in his eyes and shook Kirby's hand.
Dizzy: Dizzy friends with Kirby too.
Suddenly, Yoshi popped out of Sora's gem and joined in Kirby and Dizzy's handshake.
Yoshi: Yoshi friends with Kirby and Dizzy too.
The three of them then hugged each other. Plucky then realized something.
Plucky: I wonder what happened to Dedede?
In the throne room, Dedede was talking to Ganondorf over his giant TV monitor and he wasn't too happy.
Dedede: You mean, there's no second chance for me?
Ganondorf: Yes. You're too pathetic to be at our round table. We only used you to revive Nightmare. You don't deserve the title of bad guy. You even helped the good guys win in the battle. So, you're fired!
The TV shut off and Dedede turned to Escargoon.
Escargoon: I knew that working for these guys was a bad idea. We should be friends with Kirby for now.
Dedede: Just for that, I'll pound you for fun.
Dedede pulled out his hammer.
Escargoon: Please don't, sire. I'm allergic to pain.
Dedede began chasing Escargoon around the castle, unknown to them that Tiff's group was watching and laughing as they ran all around the castle. Kirby was laughing so hard that he fell down and wiggled his feet in the air. Back with Sora's group, our heroes left Cappy Town and boarded the gummi ship.
Sweetie: Sora, Plucky, Dizzy, I'm glad to see that everything turned out alright in Dreamland.
Sora: Hopefully Dedede will leave the citizens alone, now that he can't order any more heartless from Ganondorf.
Dizzy: Where next world?
Sweetie: There's one north of here. But I believe it's too dangerous for now.
Sora: Then where do we go?
Sneezer: There's a world north of Odaiba. I believe that's the safer alternative.
Plucky: Then let's go back to Odaiba. but first, we need to get out of our Dreamland bodies.
Sora: Oh, I forgot about that. I guess I got so used to this body, I forgot about my normal body. OK Plucky, change us back.
Plucky: Here we go, then.
Plucky snapped his fingers. A cloud went poof around our heroes and when the smoke cleared, they were all wearing tutus.
Sora:(Sarcasm)Ha Ha Ha. Very funny, Plucky. Change us back for real.
Plucky: It's no laughing matter. I forgot the spell on how to revert us back to normal.
Sora: You what?
Plucky: Just kidding. I'll try to return us to normal.
Plucky snapped his fingers again and this time, our heroes became sea creatures. Sora became a merman, Plucky became an octopus, and Dizzy became a sea turtle.
Sora: Why do I have the feeling there was suppose to be an original purpose for these forms.
Elder-Ham: Well, Sora. I think you should focus on the fact that sea creatures can't breathe air.
Sora: Oh, yeah. Plucky change us again before I strangle you to lose more air.
The group began gasping for air and fell on the floor. Plucky snapped his fingers again and this time they returned to normal.
Elder-Ham: Did it work?
Plucky: I think so.
He then realizes he's in Sora's body, Sora is in Dizzy's body, and Dizzy is in Plucky's body.
Plucky in Sora's body: Oh, no! I'm in Sora's body. I don't wanna go back to high school.
Sora in Dizzy's body: Whoa! I'm a Tasmanian devil, and I'm cute.
Dizzy in Plucky's body: Dizzy look good in this body. Dizzy should go out with Shirley.
Plucky snapped his fingers again and everyone returned to normal.
Plucky: Hey, it worked.
Elder-Ham: Now, let's warp back to Odaiba.
The gummi ship warps back to Odaiba.
Sweetie: It will take us 30 minutes to get to the next world.
Sora: OK. Let's go!
The gummi ship took off and headed to the next world.
That's it for chapter 27. I'm sorry if the Dreamland arc took too long. I'm also sorry that the story arc had alot of similarities to KingdomKey23. Thankfully, The next world will be alot shorter and more original.
