Chapter 1
"Come on Tuff!" Tiff shouted up the tree to her little brother "Get that Frizbee down already!"
"I'm trying Tiff," said Tuff as he reached for the green
disk. "it"s too high! Why can't Lololo and Lalala get it
instead?"
"Because we asked you," Lololo called up to him.
"Besides," Lalala put in. "you're the one who threw it up
there in the first place"
"Don't remind me," Tuff growled, still struggling to get
the Frizbee.
"Just get it down!" Tiff ordered with anoyance.
Tuff reached up and grabbed the disk, " I got it!" he
shouted gleefully.
Suddenly the branch he had been standing on broke
"Ahhhhhhhh!" he screamed as he fell.
"Tuff!" Tiff exclaimed.
Tuff hit the ground and a big cloud of smoke rose up.
When the dust cleared they saw Tuff lying face flat on the
ground. His body had hit it so hard he had created a crater in
the shape of himself.
"Tuff, are you okay?" Tiff asked.
"Ow," Tuff groaned getting up. "I feel like I was just
hit with a frying pan."
Seeing that he was okay the other three began to laugh.
"It's not funny," Tuff said angrily,
After a moment they calmed down, "All right let's get
some lunch," Tiff said. "Kawasokie anyone?"
"Yuck," Tuff, Lololo, and Lalala groaned in one voice.
"Tiff are you crazy? That food is awful!"
"I'm not crazy," Tiff objected. "I just wanted to feed
Kirby that's all. He looks hungery."
They all looked over at Kirby who looked like he wanted
to eat the four. "I guess you're right, Tiff," Tuff agreed "He
looks like he wants to eat us."
"Poyo!" Kirby squealed, opening his mouth.
''No, Kirby!" Tiff shouted.
Kirby began to suck, but the only thing he got was the
Frizbee that made his mouth get stuck open. "Poyo!" Kirby
squealed angrily, as he tried to remove the disk from his mouth.
"We'd better help him,Tiff," Tuff said.
"Hold still," Tiff said grabbing the Frizbee and tugging
at it.
It wouldn't budge.
"Guys help me!" she shouted.
Tuff, Lololo, and Lalala grabbed Tiff's waist and began to
pull. The Frizbee came out and they fell back wards.
"Poyo!" Kirby squealed happily.
"Kirby!" Tiff exclaimed exasperated. "You need to learn to
not eat everything you see. A Frizbee is a toy not a giant piece
of candy."
"Poyo?" was all Kirby said.
Tiff slapped her forehead. "Why do I even bother,"she
groaned.
"Come on, Tiff," Tuff said. "We'd better take Kirby to
Kawasokie's."
"Yeah," Lalala piped up.
"Before he tries to eat something else, like a tree
stump." Lololo finished.
"Okay," said Tiff nodding. "Let's go.''
The group then headed to Cappy Town.
When they got to the restaurant Kawasokie greeted them
at the door. "Hello Tiff. Hello Tuff," he said. "come on in, I
have plenty of room."
When they entered the restaurant Tuff said looking
around, "You sure were right about that, Kawasokie, No one's
here."
"I guess that's because today I'm serving a new dish,"
Kawasokie said. "and since you're here why don't you just take a
seat and I'll bring it out."
"Uh oh," Tuff said. "whenever Kawasokie makes new
dishes they're worse then his usual stuff."
"Give him a chance, Tuff," Tiff whispered. " Maybe it
will be better this time."
"Yeah," Lololo said, "and if you don't like it you can
just give it to Kirby. He'll eat anything even a tree stump."
"Will you quit that," Lalala said, bopping her brother
on the head. "Kirby won't eat tree stumps."
"Who said," Lololo chalenged. "He'll eat anything, even
a fridge."
"He will not!" Lalala insisted.
"He will too!" Lololo argued.
The others stared at them. "Boy, and I thought they got
along well," Tuff whispered to Tiff.
Tiff nodded. "Yeah, but I guess they get into arguments
too," she said.
"Well, we'd better take a seat until they calm down and
are ready to join us," Tuff suggested.
Tiff and Kirby agreed and Kawasokie went into the
kitchen saying, "I'll bring out my new dish in a moment."
Once he was gone Tuff turned to Tiff. "Quick! Let's get
out of here before he comes back," he said urgently.
"No Tuff," Tiff said. "we came here to feed Kirby, so
we're gonna stay."
Tuff groaned and smacked his head on the table.
"Poyo!" Kirby squealed.
"Will not!" Lalala yelled.
"Will too!" Lololo argued back.
"Will not and I'm not arguing about it anymore," Lalala said, turning away from her brother.
"Grrrrrr! Rour! Take this!" Lololo growled pulling out
a huge mallet and wacking Lalala with it.
Lalala saw stars for a moment then angrily turned to
her brother, "Lololo that was the meanest thing you've ever done!"
she squeaked.
Then she began talking real fast and it sounded like
gerbils. "How can you be inconsiderate you big dumb-!"
"All right you two," Tiff interupted. "Stop fighting! I
thought you two got along with each other."
"We do, Tiff," Lololo said. "but--"
"I don't want to hear it," Tiff said. "Why don't you
two just sit down while we wait for Kawasokie to bring out our
food."
"Okay," they said taking their seats.
After a moment Kawasokie came out of the kitchen and
set a covered dish on the kids table. "Vol la!" he said, pulling
the cover off the dish.
When they saw what it was Tuff gasped and asked, "What is it?"
"It's a new resipee. Spiced caviar," Kawasokie
replied. "try it."
Tuff poked at the fish eggs."I don't know. Are you
sure they're not fish eyeballs?"
"Tuff, don't be rude," Tiff scolded."Just try
it."
"Why do I have to try it!" Tuff demanded, glaring
at his sister. "Why can't you try it?"
"Because I said you had to that's why," Tiff said. "now try it."
"Oh all right," Tuff said taking a tiny bite of the
fish eggs.
He chewed for a moment thoughtfully then his face
turned purple, then blue, then green. He made an awful sound and
slammed his head on the table.
"Tuff?" Tiff said. "are you alright?"
Tuff looked up. "It tasted like horse crap." he
said, his tongue sticking out of his mouth.
"And how do you know what horse crap tastes like?"
Lalala asked.
"Don't even go there," Tuff growled.
"Well if you don't like it that's just more for
Kirby," Kawasokie said, pushing the plate in front of the pink
puff ball. "Here you go, Kirby."
Kirby squealed happily and sucked up the food.
Suddenly his eyes grew wide and he turned green. He spit the
eggs right into Kawasokies face.
"Sorry about that Kawasokie," Tiff said. "he
didn't do it on purpose."
"Well I know one thing," the cook said. "if Kirby
doesn't like it it's really awful."
He gave a nervous laugh then sniffed the air. "Do
you smell that?" he asked.
The kids sniffed the air too.
"Smells like smoke," Tiff said.
"It smells like it's coming from the kitchen,"
Fololo said.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhh! My cabbage dumplings!" Kawasokie
exclaimed, running into the kitchen.
"Cabbage dumplings? Cabbage dumplings!" Tuff
exclaimed. "...Erm ,Tiff, can we go? I don't want to try
anymore um new resipees can we leave?"
"Yeah," said Tiff, feeling a little queezy at the
thought of taste testing cabbage dumplings. "Let's go before he
comes back."
Everyone agreed and hi tailed it out of there.
"Honey, I honestly don't see why you have to go and snoop
into his majesties' buisness." Sir Ebrum said to Lady Like who
was peeking into King Dedede's throne room.
"Ebrum," she said without turning. "he has been acting
rather strange lately."
"Yeah. So?" Ebrum said.
Lady Like looked over her shoulder at her husband. "Ebrum,
I think he's up to no good.," she said giving him a Look.
"Oh dear," Ebrum said.
"Hey! What do you two think you're doing?" demanded a
voice.
The two turned and saw Escargoon King Dededes' #1 flunky
staring at them with his hands on his hips.
"Oh Escargoon, we were just uh...wondering if Dedede
would be willing to uh...paint the garden roses
green...uh, oh dear." Sir Ebrum fumbled clumsily.
Escargoon stared at them like their heads were screwed
on backwards then said. "Well, whatever you were doing I just
want to inform you that His Majesty isn't here."
"Not here?" the two asked.
"He's in town buying candy or something." Escargoon
said, before he entered the throne room closing and locking the
door behind him.
"Candy?" Lady Like said.
Sir Ebrum shrugged, "Your guess is as good as mine," he
said.
Meta Knight slammed the top drawer shut and opened the
middle one. The Star Warrior was looking for something he had
misplaced the other day and couldn't seem to find it
anywhere. Now where did I put that, he thought digging through
the contants of the drawer. This isn't even arranged the way I
had it! I'm going to have to speak to Sword about this.
As he rummaged through the contants of the drawer his hand
rested on something small, cold, and metalic. What is this? he
thought, picking the thing up and looking at it.
It was a piece of a locket with a picture in it. The picture was of him and a
girl hugging and smiling at each other.
"Meta Knight," said a voice behind him
The Star Warrior turned and saw his two followers Sword
and Blade standing in the doorway staring at him.
"Yes?" he asked, hiding the locket piece behind his back.
"We have a problem," said Sword.
"Yes?"
"Well it's about...uh...'' That's when Sword realized he'd forgotten what he was going to
say. "Um... never mind," he said.
Blade smacked his forehead with his hand. (His own forehead not Sword's)
Meta Knight stared at him. Sword began to feel
nervous."Well...um we gotta go. Come on Blade," he said
grabbing his friends hand and pulling him out of the room
closing the door behind him. Meta Knight turned back to his
search chuckling to himself.
"Here you go sire,"said the Cappy Town grocery store owner,
as he handed King Dedede a paper bag. "Six dozen milk balls."
King Dedede took the bag and left...without paying!
"I should have known he wouldn't pay for those," the man said.
"Did you really expect him to?" Mabel the town fortune
teller said. "I predict he's not even going to eat them."
As Dedede stepped out of the store he nodiced Tiff,
Tuff, Lololo, Lalala, and Kirby coming down the street laughing
and talking. A mischevius smile appeared on the king's face and
as the group got closer he dumped the milk balls all over the
street.
Tiff was the first to slip and then the other four. They
slip slidded on the candy then slammed into a pile of garbage
cans.
King Dedede laughed at the kids."He he hee! You kids
should really watch your steps."
"Us!" Tiff exploded. "You're the one who made us slip!"
"Now ya'll don't blame me for your clumsiness," the
king of Dreamland said. "Oh, and pick up your candy. You wouldn't
want anyone to slip on it."
Then he walked away laughing.
"You're right, Mabel," the grocery store owner said.
"he didn't eat then after all."
"And I was only kidding too," Mable said.
Tiff and the others got to their feet. "I guess we'd
better clean these up," she said "I wouldn't want anyone else to
slip."
Just as she reached down to pick up the candy Kirby
sucked it up. "Poyo!" he squealed, licking his lips and smiling.
"I guess we don't have to pick it up after all, Tiff." Tuff said.
"I guess not," Tiff agreed, giggling.
"That was really rotten of King Dedede," Lololo said,
clenching his fists.
"Yeah, he could have hurt one of us." agreed Lalala.
"Well I'm just glad he didn't," said Tiff, looking up
at the sun, which by then was low in the sky. "We'd better take
Kirby home. It's getting late."
They left the town and after saying good night to
Kirby they headed to the castle. Lololo and Lalala went to their
rooms and Tuff headed to his and Tiff's family quarters. Tiff
decided to go to the castle library to get a book to read. When
she got there she saw Meta Knight sitting at one of the tables
staring at something gold he held in his right hand.
"Meta Knight?" Tiff said, walking up to him.
The Star Warrior turned, "Tiff, I didn't hear you
come in." he said.
"What's that?" she asked pointing at the object.
"Nothing," he lied.
"Really?" she asked suspiciosly.
Meta Knight knew he couldn't lie to Tiff so he said, "It is a piece of a locket I found in my drawer earlier."
He showed it to her.
In the dim light Tiff saw a small black and white photo in the small round locket piece. The
photo was of a woman and someone else hugging and smiling at
each other. They looked very happy.
"Who are they?" Tiff asked pointing at the photo.
"The woman's name is Pisces," Meta Knight answered.
"Pisces," Tiff said. "did you know her?"
He nodded. "Indeed."
"Tell me about her. Who was she? How did you meet
her?" Tiff said sitting beside him.
"Pisces was a Star Warrior nurse who helped the injured.
One day I was injured by a poisoned dart and taken to the place
where a makeshift hospital had been put up. Pisces was the nurse
who treated me. While I was there we got to know each other and
became friends. During that time my condition worsened so Pisces
offered to do the hardest thing she could ever do. " he
explained.
"What?" Tiff inquired.
"Pisces had the power to heal, but that also came
with a horrible side affect," he explained.
"What?" Tiff asked again.
"When she heals a person their wound or disease gets
tranceported into her own body so upon healing me she got the
poison trancefered into her body thus poisoning herself," Meta
Knight answered.
"Did she die?" Tiff asked.
"No," Meta Knigth explained. "somehow she lived
through it but was intensly weak for a month and had to stay in
bed. Jecra and I visted her when there was no fighting and we
all get to know each other better."
"So what happened to her?" Tiff asked.
"I do not know," he answered. "She is most likely dead
like the others."
There was a silence as Tiff thought about what he had
said and as Meta Knight pushed away the memorys again. He did
not want to remember anything about her anymore.
"Meta Knight?" said Tiff.
He looked at her. "Yes?" he asked.
"Are you all right?"
"Yes, I am fine."
Tiff wasn't sure.
Meta Knight stood. "I have to go now," he said. "I will
see you tomarrow, Tiff."
Then he left the library without another word.
Tiff watched him go totally confused at his strange
behavior.
