Chapter Twelve: Kirby's Dream..........
Where was he? He didn't know. Why was he here? He didn't know. What was going on? He didn't know. He couldn't think. He had become a hero way too early. He wasn't even suppose to be able to even do what he was able to do. Something had given him an edge at deciphering those dreams. He didn't ask for help from anyone to translate them. Wait! How could he be thinking now?
RED! The word screamed out, but it didn't divert his attention from his own thoughts. What was he thinking about, anyway?
RED!
'Will you be quiet!' called Kirby in his sleep.
'Never!' something cried back.
'Who are you?'
'Come and get me to find out.' Kirby then realized he was in a dark hallway. Not only that, but there was a single Purple Man on the path. Kirby knew what to do.
He ran towards the evil man and knocked him into the ceiling. Kirby was far away before he landed on the floor.
Kirby reached the end of the hallway and jumped through a hole on the floor. From there, he jumped to avoid the big bombs that rolled down the path. Passed the machine that produced the bombs, he jumped down another hole. A Purple Man was there to greet him, but Kirby didn't have the time. He sent this one flying into the bomb machine, blowing him up.
He ran down the next hall and jumped through another hole.
On that hall, he had to avoid the big, red and white bull's eyes. He then jumped down the hole to the awaiting Purple Man. He sent him flying into the targets. He kept ricocheting from them until he was nothing but nothing.
Kirby walked down the last hall and made it to a shining door. He walked into the light.
Kirby was amazed at what he saw. It was different from what Fox and Samus saw. It was a stage made completely of bricks. The stage was connected to the walls and floor of the white room. There was a gap in the middle of the stage that went all the way down. On one side of the stage, there was a brick divider in the air. On top of it was a green pipe. A similar pipe was on the side of the stage. Over the gap, there were two platforms connected by a string on two separate pulleys. The background of the stage was amazing. Hundred of thousands of creature were in a stadium, ready to watch the match. Some of them looked like turtles and mushrooms, but there were other creatures there, as well.
'Ready?' asked a shadowed figure. RED!
'You bet,' thought Kirby, preparing to fight. The figure was shadowed except for his eyes. They glowed with an evil gray light.
'First, I want you to meet my friends, DK, Yoshi, Fox, and Pikachu. Get ready, guys!'
Four more dark figures appeared. they were all shadowed except for their glowing eyes. Easy prey.
'Fight!' said Red, pointing at Kirby. They attacked.
Kirby jumped back and did his Final Cutter attack. Pikachu and Fox were hit, but Yoshi and DK dodged the attack and knocked Kirby up into the brick ceiling.
Kirby regained himself, and crushed Yoshi with a spin kick. The dinosaur struck DK, sending both of them back. Pikachu and Fox ran towards him this time. He swallowed Pikachu and shot him at Fox. Fox dodged it and did his Fire Fox attack. Kirby jumped up and did his stone attack. Fox was smashed into the ground, unconscious. DK, Yoshi, and Pikachu then attacked together. They were unstoppable.
Kirby was in trouble. He was battered and torn, tired and exhausted, crushed and bruised. The three remaining dark figures were too much. Fox was still out of commission. Wait, he was out of it! Power stealing time!
Kirby jumped back down to Fox and sucked him up. He then stole his power. Unlike the other times, Fox didn't reappear. He was gone for good. Another good idea. He dumped Fox's power and ate Pikachu. The electric mouse disappeared. He, then, did it to the remaining two.
'So, you found our weakness, huh?' said Red, smiling a hard-to-notice smile.
'Who are you, Red?' asked Kirby.
'An innocent question that deserves an innocent answer.'
'So, are you going to tell me?'
'I'll tell you when I tell you, for you never know, until you know, but it might not be what you wanted to hear.'
'Quit with the speeches, Red, and tell me your name!' Kirby was getting frustrated, now. The dark figure was playing with him.
'The innocent question is no longer innocent. Which means that it won't get an innocent answer.'
'I know how to defeat you, so when I battle you for real, I'll beat you senseless!'
'Words of a deviant. Why should I allow you to impose on my turf?'
'Stop with the word play, Red. It's starting to get annoying.'
'Yet you are a plague upon my master's life. He wished he hadn't sent for you. You're nothing but a child, a baby, a toddler, a lad, a juvenile, an infant, a kid, a tot, a vacuum, a balloon, a...'
'Shut up, Red! You're a kid, too, so why should you speak of babies and tots?'
'I am superincumbent.'
'What in the world is that?'
'That shows how much smarter I am. Superincumbent means superior, greater, higher, more like a deus or omnipotent being. The only other person higher than me is my master, Master Hand.'
'Then eat my fist!' Kirby then implanted it into Red's face.
'Ah!' he cried, putting his hands to his face.
'Not so tough without your upper lip.'
'You demonic beast! PK Thunder!' From Red's head came out a thunder bolt and it was heading right for Kirby. He wasn't there when it hit. He was sucking up Red as he was momentarily stunned by the use of the attack.
'Aaaah!' he cried, disappearing forever. Kirby smiling to himself.
'Well, that was easy. Too bad it wasn't a real battle.'
'On the contrary, you won the battle,' said a voice. Kirby looked around for the source of it, but couldn't find it.
'You have defeated the clones of DK, Yoshi, Fox, and Pikachu. You have also defeated my clone. You have released me from my prison without you knowing it. Thank you, Kirby.' A boy with a red baseball cap appeared before Kirby at that time.
'What is your name?' asked Kirby, looking at the colorful Red.
'An innocent question deserves an innocent answer. For my name is also innocent. It is Ness.'
Kirby then woke up to see the real him. He had released one of the Secret Characters
Where was he? He didn't know. Why was he here? He didn't know. What was going on? He didn't know. He couldn't think. He had become a hero way too early.
