Chapter 9:

First the Disclaimer: I don't own Kirby, King Dedede, Escargoon, Tiff, Tuff, Or Metaknight. Nintendo and HAL laboratories do.

Now a message: YOU MAY USE HOSHI AND THE WEIRD PENGUIN IN YOUR STORIES. Just give me credit.

The Weird Penguin began his story:

*Flashback* The odd penguin is in a HUGE glass tube in a laboratory, Minus his spikes and other weird features.In other words, a completely normal dedede. He is floating in fluid and has a breathing mask on and a whole lotta tubes and hoses stuck in his body The scientists conversation goes like this:

Scientist 1: Doctor, look at this! the chick's MRI shows that he's gonna be really evil.

Scientist 2: Excellent. Our clone of King Dedede will be twice as evil as the original, Dr. Harm!

Dr. Harm: But there's one thing I'm worried about...

Scientist 2: What?

Dr. Harm: Dr. Payne, (The Idiot!) watched episode after episode of Martha stewart reruns in the cloning room and it's blocking the evil.

Scientist 2: D*mn! I KNEW she was corruptive!

Suddenly, The weird Penguin wakes up and smashes the tube open with his fist. shards of glass hit the floor as vital fluid pours out of the tank.

Weird Penguin: Yawn?

Dr. Harm: Oh no, what'll we do?! we can't put him back in, and he can't grow up in 6 hours outside the tube! He's only about 4 years old! (He thinks.) I know... Hehehe....

King Dedede Interrupts, "Waitaminit! The correct spelling of the laughing sound is 'hee hee hee!' Everyone reading this story whirled around, LET HIM FINISH THE STORY!!! "Okay, okay, sorry...." said King Dedede.

Dr. Harm: Get the um... Special medicine, Dr. Hertz... Heh heh heh...

(Dr. Hertz lewaves the room and comes back with a HUGE syringe. It's filled with a black fluid, which is flashing red every 3 seconds.)

Dr. Harm(Taking the needle): This is really gonna hurt. When you inject liquid pain into someone, it makes them more evil than if they watched movies starring Chris Farley for 3 days in a row.

(The Weird Penguin[we'll call him ??? until he's named] looks at the needle like a porky deer caught in a semi truck's headlights. the scene goes black as the needle is stabbed into him and a horrible scream is heard.

??? woke up. His whole back, his butt, his feet, and his shoulderblades hurt like he had knives in them.

???: what th...

He gasps as he sees that he has two clusters of spikes, one on each shoulderblade, A scaly tail with four spikes coming out of it, a HUGE flower growing out of his back, and two claws on each foot.

???:They... Mangled me...

??? gets really p*ssed. He actually roars, hauls off, and suddenly, without warning, gets fire ability, spews a blood-red fireball, and blows up the lab. he runs from the wreckage into the woods.

???: I can no longer mingle with normal people. I'm a freak...

"And that's my story." said ???. "I've roamed these woods ever since then. Then when you found me, That's where the story ends." "What's your name? said Kirby. "Don't have one." said ???. "But..." He gets fire ability, then tornado, then... "WATER ABILITY?!?!?! said Kirby, Even I can't use that!" ??? threw a waterball at a tree. Suddenly, King Dedede says, "Ni-Kaabi." "What?" said Escargoon. "That's what I decided to call him since he can copy abilities, even without inhaling." said King Dedede, "After all, he's my son.

(A/N: "Ni Kaabi" is japanese for "Kirby 2" but in the comics I do, I spell it "Kirbe 2" Kind of a cross between "King Dedede and "Kirby")

Ni Kaabi smiled, "Niiiiiiiii.......... Kaaaabi......... I like it. Suddenly, Hoshi pipes up, KNOCK, KNOCK!!! IT'S FIVE A.M., WE NEED TO SLEE- HEEP!!! Everyone looks at her. "Well the writer was ignoring me. I needed to do something."

(A/N: Sorry Hoshi;.;)

Hoshi replied, That's okay. she began to sing again "Dingle Balls, Dingle Balls... Everone shook their heads like she was a hopeless case.

***

King Dedede was telling Ni-Kaabi a bedtime story. It went like this towards the end..."They took a tranquilizer dart, shot goldilocks with it, Tagged her, and released her into the wild where she was shunned by all other humans because of her tag, and was forced to live as a cavegirl. The end" Ni-Kaabi was fast asleep. he looked even more like a stuffed animal. King Dedede walked out of the tent.... At least he started to, until he heard Ni- Kaabi talking in his sleep. "No....... No........... Miruku....... Run, Miruku............ King Dedede hears him scream. Within minutes, everyone was in the tent as King Dedede shook Ni-Kaabi awake. His eyes fluttered open and he crumpled to the floor murmuring, "Miruku.... Why didn't you run?" "Who's Miruku? said King Dedede. Ni-Kaabi sighed. I'm afraid I didn't tell you ALL of my story...

End of Chapter 9
