The War on N.M.E. Chapter 15
Chapter 15: Full Reuniting
"Well, Miss Ebrum, is it...?"
"Y-Yes Sir."
Tiff was now in that room talking to Nightmare. Her heart raced, and her stomach felt queasy. Her head throbbed, and she was shaking.
'Why...why did this have to happen to me...?' Tiff thought to herself. 'Why...why couldn't...Meta Knight be here...here to protect me...'
"What was that?" Nightmare asked Tiff.
"W-What?"
"What were you thinking...?"
"Nothing, Sir."
"You're trembling. What ever is the matter?"
"Nothing Sir."
"You want to know why I requested your presence?"
"Yes please, Nightmare."
"...Well, the one that is very dear to you...has gotten in my way many a time. He is beginning to get on my nerves...that is why you're here."
"What is that supposed to mean?"
"I brought you here to make him suffer."
"Make who suffer?"
"The one you love."
"Meta Knight...?"
"Yes, the one who is dear to you."
"No, please...leave him alone!"
"Heh heh heh...that is exactly what I mean...Miss Ebrum...it was him who prevented me from taking over the universe...for one thing, he is a star warrior. Another thing, Galaxia. And then there's you. He cares about you, you know."
"...H-He does?" Tiff asked, she was happy at the comment. "You mean...he loves me?"
"Yes."
"...I always had a special feeling when I was around him. I guess that means we were meant for each other." That made Tiff feel a little better.
"So you see, Miss Ebrum. That is why you are here. So he suffers."
"Leave him alone. Deal with me, not him." Nightmare was getting annoyed. He walked towards her.
"Miss Ebrum. Don't tell me what to do...!" He took his hand out of his cape and whacked her across the face, just the same way that little devil did. Tiff fell down to the ground.
"META KNIGHT! HELP!" Tiff shouted at the top of her lungs. Nightmare stared at her.
"There isn't a thing you can do. Kirby, FoLolo, Blade! Get over here." And, out of the shadows crept Kirby, FoLolo, and Blade. They were different. They each had angel and devil wings, and their bodies were all black as if they had been possessed by Dark Matter* or something.
"What is it, master...?" They all said in quiet voices.
"Take Miss Ebrum out of here. Put her in the dungeon, I'll deal with her later."
"No! Please! Kirby, FoLolo, Blade! Don't listen to him!"
"That's enough!" Nightmare shouted, hitting her right in the face again. "Do as I say!"
"Yes, master..." They all replied. (Not Tiff...) Kirby put a paw on Tiff's face, covering her mouth. FoLolo and Blade picked her up, walked out of the room and into the dungeon. Blade and FoLolo threw her into a small room, kind of like a jail cell.
"Please!" Tiff shouted at them. All they did was turn away and leave. "Meta Knight...where are you...?"
Meta Knight, Sword Knight, FaLala, and Tuff walked out of the building.
"Meta Knight, we tried everywhere. No sign of them." Tuff told his leader. They all walked on in silence. Sword Knight looked around at the vast area that lay ahead of them. As he stared on, he could see two figures in the distance. One of them was bigger than the other. Sword examined each one without saying anything to the others. After careful examination, he knew right away that it was King DeDeDe and Escargoon.
"Meta Knight, look! It's DeDeDe and Escargoon!" Sword Knight informed his leader.
"Quickly, we are pressed for time, my friends!" They all ran over to DeDeDe and Escargoon. After a little while, they were only a few yards away. DeDeDe and Escargoon began to run towards them.
"Majesty! It's them!" Escargoon exclaimed.
"Majesty, Escargoon, we are very grateful we found you." Meta Knight declared. "We must hurry though; there is no time to explain. Just come with us!"
"Alright." DeDeDe told the star warrior.
"But Meta Knight, you don't even know where we are supposed to go!" FaLala shouted out.
"Yes, I know. But he does..." Meta Knight pointed a finger back at the way they had just come from. There, standing in the midst of everything, was one of those black devils.
