Chapter 20

It's the Final Countdown

After a little chat with Dark Meta Knight. They got King Dedede, Lord Hyness, Pres. Haltmann, and Queen Sectonia back. They thought they were done. They started to leave but something was in the shadows. All they could see was an eye. Staring back at them, menacingly.

All of a sudden the eye disappeared. They all sighed and continued to go towards the exit. But something felt wrong to Flamberge.

"Hey, Meta Knight, Dedede, Bandana."

"Yes."

"Zan was, with you right?"
"No."

"But she wasn't with us."

"But I thought." Said Meta Knight

Zan went up to Bandana and whispered to him. "Just tell them I know you're under pressure." So he did.

"She was with us."

"Huh?" Said Dedede

"She was the light."

"0o0." Dedede "said"

Meta Knight's mouth was wide open; he couldn't believe it. "HOW?!" He asked himself. "HOW, DID I NOT KNOW?!" Ok, anyway they couldn't believe it!

Meanwhile someone was in the back watching this all come together. The person behind this… What! You think i'ma go ahead and tell you! Ha! Not yet.

"WELL WHERE IS ZAN THEN, JUH!" Flamberge screamed

"I DON'T KNOW FLAMBERGE!" Dedede screamed back at her

"Why don't we loo-." Meta Knight tried to say as he was interrupted by screams

After a few minutes of screams they finally said "let's look for her." So they did. They looked everywhere. Except in another room… Zan AND Daroach were in another room!

They were trying to get some alone time. And Zan was cleaning up the cuts and bruises he got during the fight. They talked and talked and talked until Zan heard footsteps coming. Dark Meta Knight came to look in another room. Zan quickly hid while Daroach pretended to be looking for her.

"Oh! Hey uh.. (Gulp) what are you uh.. Doing here? He he.." Daroach said nervously

"Yo! My man, I didn't know you were here! What ya doing?" Dark Meta Knight said

"(Deep breath) Looking for Zan…"

"OMG SAME!"

"Cool…"

"Yo! Let's look for her together!"

"(Nervous look on his face) Sure…"

"Come on, let's check somewhere else."

"Ok!"

So Dark Meta Knight and Daroach went to another room to check for Zan. Meanwhile Marx and Magolor were fighting AGAIN!

"She's over here!" Screamed Magolor

"NO! She's over here!"

"No over here!"

"OVER HERE!"
"NO!"

"YES!"
"NO!"
"YES!"

Whilst all of that was happening A familiar eye was watching them. And someone took notice.

"Hey, Kirby!" Susie said

"Piya?"

"Do you remember that eye?"

"POYA!"

Susie walked over to it. As she got close she knew who it was. DARK MATTER SWORDSMAN! Yep!

"Hey aren't yo-?"

"Yes." He said in a dark deep voice

"But why are you here?"

"To warn you."

"About what!"

"Him."

Dark Matter Swordsman then immediately disappeared. Leaving Susie alone in the dark corner of the room.

"HEY EVERYONE STOP!" Susie screamed as she ran into the middle of the room

"What?" Everyone said as they walked toward Susie

"I-I-I don't think we are done."

"Why?" Taranza said

"Well I just saw Dark Matter Swordsman…"
"Uh hu."

"And he told me to warn you about 'Him'"

"Whose 'Him'?" Rick, Kine, and Coo asked

"That's the worst part I don't know"

"Well why don't weh do back to Dreamland?" Dedede proposed

"Sure!"

They all went to the nearest "Airport" and got warp stars to make the trip faster. And they were tired of walking. Once they got there Dedede and Meta Knight were both devastated. Castle Dedede was crumbling. And the Halberd was ripped to shreds…

"Welcome back you COWARDS!"

"Huh? *Confused look on there faces*"

"Would you like me to introduce myself?"

"(Overlapping chatter) Yes!"

"Ok then."

"It can't be!" They all said in shock

"Yes it is I DARK NEBULA!"

"You're not the person behind all of this are you?" Daroach said in a confidant voice

"Oh but I AM!"

"0-0" Daroach had this look on his face as if he was embarrassed

Everyone was in shock, even us. Yeah somehow the WEAKEST of the Dark Matters created this whole mess of things. But whoever did this needed to be stopped. But how? If he started this then he had to be more powerful than before.

"Hmm psst Kirby how do you think he did this?" Meta Knight whispered to Kirby

"Piyo?"

"Hmm well we need to find out."

"Wha?" Dedede said trying to get in on the conversation

"We need to figure out how he did this."

"We could ask him."
"No!"

"Ok then."

"Ahem!" Dark Nebula said

"What do you want now!" Meta Knight accidentally said out loud

"Well mister 'I'm full of attitude' I was going to say something important but i'm not going to now!"

"Hey Dark Nebula!" Daroach screamed

"Yes, little ugly rat."

"What's your backstory?"

"What do you mean?"

"Why did you do this?"

"Well, I was being bullied by everyone and I needed revenge so I created this gem and had a Dark Matter put the power of emotions and it had the soul of Plant Popstar in it and I made it very fragile so that it could easily break then I placed it in The Great Cave Offensive so that someone would find it and accidentally break it. Why?"

"Yo, buddy thanks for telling us your whole plan!"

"YOU! :("

"Ok, now we gotta beat him up."

"Now look at what you have done!"

There was one problem for the first five minutes of the fight. Zan was nowhere to be seen. But she was there at the same time. She was just watching. After five minutes though she couldn't help herself but to help. So she joined the fight. To them it seemed like he had no chance. I mean it was like 24 people versus one! I mean why won't they win. But after thirty minutes half of them were on low health!. Something fishy was going on here.

And something fishy was going on. You see Dark Nebula created clones of himself so that he could beat them while on low health. And they were powering through the clones! Everyone was fine and thought nothing of it except Bandana Waddle Dee. He was suspicious of the fact that Dark Nebula was so strong. And went behind the rock that he was standing on. And saw another Dark Nebula. This time he was real.

"HEY YOU!"

"Uh oh."

"YOU COWARD!"

"No!"

"Yeah!"

"Fine you wanna fight the real me!"
"Yes :b"

"Then come on, give me your best shot!"

And so it began. The last fight. I don't even know how long it took. All I knew was that it was intense. Very intense.

"POYA!"

"KNOW MY POWER!" Screamed Meta Knight

"MASKED DEDEDE IS COMING IN HOT!" Dedede Said
"Fran, Zan Let's roll!" Said Falmberge as they rolled on top of him

"I WILL BE LIKE KIRBY!" Said Bandana Dee

"YOU CAN'T BEAT ME COWARDS!" Dark Nebula screamed

"He's right." Dark Meta Knight said sadly

"Look, we have to beat him even if it kills me!" Daroach said

"But how?" Fransisca said

"I have an idea." Daroach said

"Ok let's hear it." they all said

"So all dark matter is weak to light, rainbows, love ect."

"Ok."

"So Meta Knight."

"Yeah."

"You will have to…"

"Oh gosh NO!"

"Yeah."

"But!"

"Yes I know but do you want to kill him?"

"FINE!"

"Good ok, Kirby."

"Piya?"

"Could you friend heart him from the back?"
"PIYA!"

"Ok I'll count that as a yes, And Gooey."

"Yeah."

"I need you to make rainbows."

"Ok…"

"And everyone else."

"Yes."

"We will hit him from the back."

"Ok."

So Meta Knight and Susie were "Having a date" and Gooey was making some rainbows. Knowing that would distract him. Meanwhile Kirby was throwing friend hearts, and everyone else was hitting him as hard as they could. And the best part was that it was working! They were beating him! Of course it took forever but I mean it was a huge accomplishment. I do believe after they figured it out it took around four to five hours to beat him but. I would rather them take forever to beat him than have him still here.

"Ok everyone let's finish him!" Secreamed Galacta Knight

"YAH!" They all screamed as they all hit him at the same time

And it was over. He was gone… he was beaten. Once he was beaten Meta Knight ran. Far away. No one knew why until a few minutes later. But I'm getting ahead of myself. Well where did I leave off. Oh yes. Ok…
