Red was having a hard time at Mustard Mountain. The air was getting really thin. He was walking along when he found a hotdog!
"Good thing to find right now. It's even better that I have mustard all around me." Red said. He dipped his hotdog halfway into the river of mustard. It caught on fire and turned into a pile of ash.
"Oh no! I lost my hotdog!" He sighed "Life is tough I guess. I better watch my step from now on since I hate getting burned."
Then his cell phone rang. "Oh great, I wonder what kind of trouble Blue is in. He's in a place called Moonlight Mansion. Sounds pretty spooky to me." Then he took out his warpstar and flew away.
Far from Mustard Mountain, very far indeed in Rainbow Route, Dark Mind had another meeting, "I have made a plan to destroy those little annoying Kirbies. Since there are 7 of you in total, you will all guard one piece of the mirror shard. If anyone of you fail, the Kirbies will be one step closer to restoring this world. And I wouldn't want that. So try your best to defend the mirror shard. If anyone of you succeed of destroying the Kirbies, you will be rewarded very well, very well indeed. So go! Oh and if, and I mean IF the Kirbies get all the mirror shards, don't worry, I'll take care of them myself." All 8 of the Dark Minds helpers went into different places of the world to stop the Kirbies from restoring the world.
