Ch. 7 Magic and Much Change

"Cowards!"

"Treasure!"

"GET BACK HERE!"

"Would you WAIT?"

They were all running through a weird vortex like tunnel, with purple and black walls. The two monsters waddled even faster as the four Kirbys started gaining on them. Tuffy and Geeby were neck and neck, Sheeby was growling like a Roly-Poly on weed and Kirby's little legs were letting him down again. Wiz was slowly dropping behind Gobbler who had mysteriously grown legs. He glanced back at the crazed puffballs and started to sweat.

Geeby raised his non-existent nose and his eyes narrowed.

"I smell BLOOD! No wait, I smell… SWEAT!"

Suddenly, two things happened. Geeby immediately sped up like lightning and Wiz stumbled. Geeby opened his mouth wide and yelled.

"INSATIABLE HUNGER!"

He jumped into the air and swallowed Wiz whole. Sheeby and Tuffy stopped and gasped. Kirby came up a few seconds later and gasped too. A white light surrounded Geeby and he was raised up and he laughed.

"Woohoo!"

There was a dark flash and loads of smoke appeared. Gobbler was long gone. Kirby took a tentative step forward.

"Geeby?"

"The one you call Geeby is gone."

The smoke cleared and a weird figure with wings appeared. It was Geeby, but with a little top hat and gloves on. He was flying with wings just like Meta Knight's.

"I'm Magicalrandomhappyvampirepuff Geeby!"

The others blinked. Sheeby rolled her eyes.

"Riiight."

Kirby looked down the long tunnel.

"We lost Gobbler!"

Magicalrandomhappyvampirepuff Geeby landed beside him.

"I have Batty wings."

Tuffy sheathed his sword.

"Seems like the same old Geeby to me."

Suddenly Meta Knight dropped down from the ceiling. He took one look at Magicalrandomhappyvampirepuff Geeby and snorted.

"What'd you eat? Nice wings though."

Magicalrandomhappyvampirepuff Geeby grinned goofily.

"Wiz."

Meta Knight nodded and turned to the other three.

"You let Gobbler go, genii."

"Genii?"

"Plural of genius."

Kirby looked at the floor, which was swirling around. Tuffy ran off and Sheeby started staring at Meta Knight and Magicalrandomhappyvampirepuff Geeby.

"Did what happen to Geeby happen to y-"

"Ok, time to leave."

Meta Knight turned sharply and dissolved into the shadows. Tuffy came back with the shard of Wiz.

"We're almost there! So are we chasing Gobbler or not?"

Kirby nodded still staring at the floor.

"The floor's like a lava lamp…"

Sheeby slapped him and Kirby flew halfway across the tunnel.

"Oww…"

Sheeby sniffed disdainfully, then smirked.

"Mety's kind of cute when he's hiding something."

Tuffy slapped his forehead and drew his sword.

"Well I want to get Gobbler. Maybe I'll swallow him and see if whatever happened to Geeby works on me too. I could use some wings."

Magicalrandomhappyvampirepuff Geeby spread his wings again.

"I can find Gobbler! Fast with wings."

Kirby hesitated, then shoved his little paw through the wall. The weird coloured swirly things left the spot and moved over. Kirby pulled a Wheelie out of the wall, abandoned his Smash power and swallowed it.

"Well, until or if that happens to all of us, we have to deal with these powers. Wheel Kirby!"

Sheeby ran over to the wall and did the same, getting rid of her Beam, but Tuffy hung back.

"I like my Sword ability…"

Sheeby looked at him with amusement.

"Well, you can keep it, if you can keep up."

With that, the two others transformed and sped away.

"Wait!"

Tuffy tossed his power away and swallowed a Wheelie. They were pouring out of the wall now. Once he transformed, he hit a few, just for sport and rolled after Sheeby and Kirby.

I think I'll draw a piture of this scene. Look out for it in my deviantart a/c!
