Cloud + Kirby's excellent adventure CHAPTER IX

The three ventured across the vast, desolate land named only as the GAMEBOARD. The once lush, happy game board had taken a turn for the worst and transformed into a barren wasteland.

            "WOOOHOOO! I got a 5!" Kirby announced proudly.

'MINI-GAME'   -"DOOM"-

Everything once again fell into blackness and when the light returned the three appeared in what appeared to be a dark dungeon. They each wielded double barrel shotguns and green armor. A voice echoed over the loud speakers.

"Horribly massacre the demons into complete mutilation and get 50 points! But don't die!" The voice bellowed.

"WHAT! They can't do that, this is dangerous!" Cloud shouted exasperated.

"Wahoo! I WANNA KILL STUFF!" Kirby gleefully rang.

"This is more like it!" Leone smirked.

Suddenly the ground began to rumble, from within the dark spaces of the dungeon lurked something… but what?

            "Grrr….grrroooowwl!" A scary-like growl beckoned the contestants.

            "What… was that?" Cloud asked a wee-bit shaken.

Leone raised his shotgun to his shoulder and took aim. Slowly the demon appeared. Never before had such a vile creature appeared before the group, even a 'Resident Evil Veteran'! It's dark eye's pierced through them and its ears twitched. And suddenly it let out a blood-curdling bellow!

"PIKA PIKA!" The monster bellowed. The monstrous yellow Pok'emon flowed with electricity.

            "AHHH! WHAT IS IT!?!?!?" Cloud screamed.

            "It's horrible!" Leone yelled.

            "Awww… it's kinda cute." Kirby mentioned thoughtfully. 

            "PIKA---CHU!!!!!" The creature unleashed a vicious electric bolt of DOOM into the group! Cloud fell down singed and blackened.

            "DIE DEMON POK'EMON!" Leone screamed as he pumped 2 shots into the creature. It flew back, and twitched.

            "Phew, that was close." Cloud said exasperated.

            "I guess that's 50 points for me, ha ha. Well at least it's over." Leone stated.

            Kirby's eyes widened, a huge smile streamed across his face. "AWW! THERE SOOOOOOOOOOO CUTE! LOOK AT 'EM ALL!"

            "All… of… oooh crap." Cloud's faced dropped.

            "Pika!" An army of pikachu's stared forward at the group.

            "…Run…" Leone said plainly.

            The three made a mad dash further into the dungeon, followed by a barrage of Pika's. Down a corridor, a hallway, up some stairs and out into a courtyard, where the three suddenly stopped. The Pika's stopped. A huge yellow demonic Pok'emon loomed over them, almost 100 feet tall.

            "Don't move, their visual perception is based on movement." Leone stated slowly.

The three starred at the looming 100 foot tall Pikachu, and suddenly someone spoke up. But it wasn't any of the group.

"Blimey she's a huge bugger! She's gawgoues!" An Australian accent called out from on top of a balcony. "This is Steve Erwin, and I've found a magnificent  specimen! I'm gunna see if I can get closa!" The man stepped towards the monster and climbed down the balcony. "Now I probably shouldn't do this, but, I'm gunna see if I can bite it and see what is taste likes!" He revealed a fork and knife.

            "That man's a lunatic…" Cloud starred blankly.

            "Hmmm… I do wonder what Pikachu tastes like…" Kirby wondered aloud. Leone cocked an eyebrow at Kirby.

            As Steve drew closer to the creature he attempted to use his powers of stealth to sneak up. The Pikachu was clearly starring right at him but he pretended not to notice. "Now I'm going to sneak up behind him…"

            "But your in front of him, he's looking right at you." Cloud explained.

            "Shhh! She might hear you!" Steve replied quietly.

            "That looks more like a 'he'" Leone said slowly with a scoff.

Suddenly the creature snapped forward and took Steve within it's jaws and swung it side to side. Many screams poured from the mouth of the monstrous yellow Pikachu. With one more snap, Steve disappeared into the yellow mass. "Pika!"

            "Oh gawd." Cloud said.

            "That was interesting…" Kirby commented.

            "Ok that's enough." Leone said.

Suddenly the three appeared near a parking garage on the game board.

            Kirby smiled "…I wanna pony!"
