DarkMind Casyle (part 2)

By, Jaken2

It was a beautiful sight the castle, four, tall, silver towers a giant moat, it was almost perfect. Taking out the guards was a simple task, but the group knew stronger forces guarded inside, along with the legendery maze that guided to the actual castle entrance. Meta, Lut, Kirby and Darkness all walked into the maze entrance. It was huge, a small map was at the top of the entrance, it showed how to get through, but it was very complex and the colours were all blue, so it was impossibale to try and follow it. The group was worried, there was no gap between the ceiling and walls of the maze, so Meta could not climb over the top and take them all over the maze.

"Well, shall we be going?" asked Meta. Everyone nodded, unsure of weither they'd live or not. Lut held Kirby's hand nervesely. Kirby blushed when she had grabbed his hand and told him alone that she was scared. Darkness had seen and was a tad jelouse that he was being put down. Meta was was focused on finding their way through the maze. He saw guards and quickly took them out with his sword. He was very worried about this place. After several hours he had killed over fifty guards. Lut was getting worried that they wouldn't make it and was staying closer and closer to Kirby, he enjoyed the fact she was staying so close.

"Uggg, will you two stop?" Darkness blurted from nowhere "You two have been flurting for half-hour now!". They could both see he was upset because Lut liked Kirby better. Soon everyone was tired walking through the maze. Meta went foreward to find the exit. On his little walk he found two small pesents shaking inside the maze.

"Who may you two be?" asked Meta.

"We are travelers here" replied one of them. They both glanced at his sword. "We can tell you how to get through, if you help us" he said eyes focused on his sword.

"What do you need me to do?" he asked.

"Get anyone you are bringing, it will take alot of strength to get out of here". Meta nodded and went to the others. He saw that they were attacked and had to fight the guards who attacked, but seemed alright from the fight.

"I have good knews" he told them "We have a way out, but we must help two naves to get through". The group nodded and went with Meta to the pesents. The two lead them to the exit and for once in his life, Meta was shocked. A giant pair of hands, a giant beetle and a huge cloud guarded the exit.

"Master Hand, Crazy Hand, Bugzzy and Kracko" said the two pesents together. Meta and the others knew what the two wanted them to do, so they stepped foreward. Kracko flew foreward and sparked.

"Who dares invade the great one's castle?" he screamed in a robotic voice. The hands punched together as Bugzzt flew foreward.

"BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!" cried Bugzzy in rage as he charged. Meta jumped to the air and slashed at the massive beetle. His armor was hard and he heard a loud clank as his sword banged off it. His blast did, however, knock the giant creature into the ground. The two hands moved in and Kirby leaped foreward. Darkness jumped beside him and the two battled against the hands. Metal smashing could be heard from throughout the maze. Soon the two hands were weakened ,so Kirby and Darkness could eat them alive. They did so quickly as Meta broke through the beetle's armor and sliced him in a split half. His body fell to peices and shattered. Kracko went foreward and blasted Kirby and Darkness away with a massive blast of wind. Meta charged, but was pushed away by the strength of the attack. Kracko unleashed storms of thunder and blasted the group from wall to wall. Kirby and Darkness focused on protecting Lut, while Meta attacked Kracko. The cloud was powerful and left almost no openings for an attack. Meta soon noticed a pattern in the cloud's pattern. He quickly saw an opening and thrusted his sword in the only eye of the giant cloud. The cloud exploded into a puff of smoke as it's eye fell to the ground and shattered to peices. The group opened the door as the two guids to this doorway ran through. What they saw was not the castle's main room, but a huge room that seemed to be a black hole, but they soon saw it was painted to look as though it was connected to space. The four flew toward the exit. At the door they saw a knight awaiting them, shadowed by his cape, with a grey mask similar to Meta's and a black sword tied to his side. He rose to his feet when he saw the group come forward. He drew his sword and attacked Darkness first. He easily knocked the poor fighter out cold. Meta and Kirby readed for the fight as Lut took Darkness out of danger. The two struck at the knight. Kirby could read the word "SHADOW" writen on the inside of his cape. Meta figured that that was his name and remebered it. He harged and just as Kracko had done, left no openings in his attack pattern. It was a monsteress fight, Kirby had to retreat several times from extreme bleeding. Meta and Shadow where both tired and soon had a final strike deul. They rushed at each other. They ended were the other had stood. Shadow fell in two split peices and Meta fell to his side in pain from the battle. The group took plenty of time to rest and refeul for the next room just incase of another battle. They walked in and saw a room full of riches. They watched in amazement as they saw a sign. Meta went over to read it and read it out loud.

"If you take anything from this pile of riches, I the great King ask of you to please leave one gold peice, if you refuse then you shall die at my hands and if you follow my wish, you will be transported from were you now stand to Star Ci". Meta looked at the others and they nodded they took everything they needed, leaving just less than half of the gold. They saw a stone and pressed it and as promised they were taken to Star Ci and lived as happy as could be, for ever after.
