I'm back again… Damn school. Sneaking up on me like that. And I've still got two others stories to finish! Grrrr. And several unfinished ones that will probably never make it to fanfiction. Oh well.
Ch. 10 Anticlimaxness…
Tuffy instantly recognised the giant red thing. He blinked.
"The big, fancy, finishing boss is a giant me?"
Meta Knight looked bored.
"Looks like it."
The giant Tuffy grinned happily.
"You can be my new playmate, smaller Tuffy!"
Tuffy looked disbelievingly at Meta Knight, who was doing a crossword.
"You can't be serious."
Giant Tuffy giggled.
"You're funny! I know we're going to be best friends! HUG!"
Tuffy dived out of the way as the giant him bellyflopped the ground. Meta Knight sidestepped just in time, never taking his eyes off the crossword.
"Damnit…six letters, works for a king…"
"Are you going to stand there or help?"
Tuffy yelled in Meta Knight's direction. Giant Tuffy lumbered after him.
"WAIT TUFFY BUDDY!"
Tuffy ran back to the tunnel.
"Ah crap I left my sword in there…"
The ground shook as Giant Tuffy stomped over and put his eye to the entrance to the tunnel. Tuffy glared at him.
"I'm not going to play with you!"
Giant Tuffy's grin vanished.
"You…you won't?"
Tuffy shook his head franticly. Giant Tuffy's eyes quivered madly and Tuffy watched as his jumbo-sized counterpart started to cry, and then swell.
"Uh oh…"
Meta Knight slipped past the giant Tuffy and into the tunnel. He finished his crossword and threw it over his shoulder. Tuffy stared at the expanding mass of red squishy stuff that now occupied the entire room. He held his breath and waited for it to- His reason was interrupted by the timely arrival of the other three Kirbys.
Magicalrandomhappyvampirepuff Geeby popped his head out of the trapdoor that suddenly materialised on the floor.
"Found Tuffy!"
Sheeby pushed him roughly out of the hole.
"Where is he? Where is he? I'm gonna kill him for leaving me with you two idiots!"
Kirby got out last.
"Calm down She-"
Unfortunately, Kirby's sentence was cut short by Giant Tuffy exploding. There was complete silence as all five puffballs stood in shock. Meta Knight was the first to say anything.
"…Yuck."
All of them, not to mention their surroundings were covered in red goo. Sheeby made a face and wiped the goo off her face with a gooey paw.
"This is disgusting!"
Suddenly her attention was diverted.
"Hey Meta Knight!"
She giggled and waved. Meta Knight turned away.
"Great."
Tuffy and Magicalrandomhappyvampirepuff Geeby stood in silence. Kirby cocked his head.
"What are you two doing?"
"Giving him a moment's silence. What does it look like?"
Kirby turned away from them. He looked around at all the goo.
"Well that's the end of the main boss guy, but where's the music?"
The music started playing.
"There it is." Sheeby said happily.
The four Kirbys looked at each other.
"That was a bit of an anticlimax…"
"Yeah."
"Poof."
"Mmm-hmm."
"Poof."
"Is that Geeby saying poof?"
"It's Magicalrandomhappyvampirepuff Geeby to you!"
Kirby thought for a moment.
"Why don't we just call you Magi Geeby?"
Magicalrandomhappyvampirepuff Geeby smiled like this: CX
"Yay! Magi Geeby!"
Sheeby whacked her companions over the head.
"Wait, where did MK go?"
The Kirbys waded through the goo and back into the boss room. They peeped around the wall and saw Meta Knight near the ceiling. He was hovering beside a radio built into the wall. Kirby stepped forwards.
"Meta Knight, what are you doing…?"
Meta Knight jumped (in the air) and spun around (still in the air).
"You weren't supposed to come in yet."
Some question marks materialised over the Kirbys heads. Three seconds went by before Magi Geeby yelled out,
"You stopped the music!"
Meta Knight looked Magi Geeby right in the eye.
"You're right."
"WHAAA?"
All four puffballs' mouths hung open.
"But I started it again too. So it evens out."
Tuffy was indignant.
"So- so we didn't need to collect the music notes? What were they there for!"
Meta Knight shrugged.
"I don't know. They appeared on their own."
"But- but w-why?"
Kirby stuttered.
"I was bored. And you deserved to be forced into another adventure after smashing that Mirror. Again. And now it's time for you to go home."
Meta Knight pulled lever that was positioned conveniently on the ceiling. The four Kirbys fell through yet another trapdoor that led to the outside world.
"Still, at least you collected all the shards."
Meta Knight jumped through the trapdoor before it closed again.
…
Falling through the air at high speed, yet untroubled by it, the Kirbys were still reeling from their revelation.
"I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT WAS ALL FOR NOTHING!"
"Tuffy, calm down..."
"MAGI GEEBY MISSED EARTHWORM JIM BECAUSE OF THIS…"
"You can watch the rerun, Magi Geeby…"
"HE COMPLETELY IGNORED ME! THAT JERK!"
"Sheeby, I don't think he was interested anyway…."
"AND YOU! SHUT THE HELL UP!"
Meta Knight soared over them.
"So long, suckers."
"DAMN YOU!"
THE END. Probably.CX
