Return of Gannondorf Part III

The Adventure (Finally) Begins

Fox and Link looked everywhere and talked to everybody who could have seen Kirby. He was nowhere to be found. They tried again and again and again. Then, they decided to take a break and rest in the fields.

"Where could he be?" asked Fox "I mean, what could he be doing?"

"I do not know, Fox" said Link "Why not use your magic bracelet that everyone on the team wears"

"I used my communicator watch, Link. He didn't answer"

"Maybe this quest is more than meets the eye, Fox. Maybe he was really Kirby-napped and is held prisoner by an evil being, in which he awaits us to fight him"

"I hope not. I just think that if he was Kirby-napped then maybe…"

Then, Fox spotted something in the distance, it was pink. It could be Kirby! Fox and Link raced over to it. It was Kirby! He was knocked out.

"Kirby!" said Fox "You're okay! Kirby, are you alright?"

"Awaken my friend" said Link "We have been looking for you throughout the land"

Then, Kirby woke up.

"Wha? Where am I?" he asked

"Your in the fields of Smash Planet, Kirby" said Fox

"Kirby?" Kirby asked "Who's Kirby?"

"Do not be silly, Kirby" said Link "You are Kirby"

"I'm Kirby?"

"Uh…Yeah" said Fox.

"Oh" said Kirby "If I'm Kirby, then who are you?"

"Holy Hyrule, Fox!" said Link "Our friend has suffered from amnesia!"

"Kirby" said Fox "You really don't remember who we are?"

"Nope, don't ring a bell" said Kirby

"Well, I'm Fox McCloud, leader of the starfox" said Fox

"Starfox?"

"We're a band who protects the lylat system from bad guys. The lylat system is a group of planets that we live in" said Fox

"I am Link, the hero of time" said Link "I am the hero of Hyrule and a member of Starfox, too"

"You're Kirby" said Fox "you, also, are a member. You have the ability to suck up enemies and copy their abilities"

"Wha? Starfox? Me?" asked Kirby "I'm confused"

"We'll explain back on the way to the Great Fox, our mother ship" said Fox calling Falco on his communicator watch "Hey, Falco"

"Yeah, Fox, I haven't found nothing" said Falco

"Never mind that, we've found him, but he doesn't remember anything, now, tell the others to head home" said Fox

"Roger!"

"Come on, Kirby" said Fox "Let's get back to the arwing"

"Arwing?"

"Follow us, Kirby" said Link.

They took Kirby to the arwing, headed towards the Great Fox, and along the way. When they got there, Kirby looked around the unfamiliar place. Then, they waited for the others. Then, finally the others came.

"Hey, Falco, you did you best" said Fox

"Hey, Fox!" said Slippy hopping in freaking out Kirby "Is it true? Is it? Is it?"

"Has Kirby really lost his memory?" asked Tricky

"Who are you people?" asked Kirby

"These are the other members of the Starfox" said Fox.

Then, Fox looked around, noticing that Krystal wasn't there.

"Wait? Where's Krystal?" asked Fox.

"I don't know" said Falco "I tried to call her, but she didn't pick up. I didn't see her on the way. Maybe she quit the team!"

"No! She wouldn't think of doing that!" said Fox "Has anyone seen her?"

"I haven't" said Tricky.

"I haven't" said Slippy

"Oh, great" said Falco "Now we have to look for her"

"Krystal" Fox thought to himself "Where did you go?"

Meanwhile at Gannondorf's castle:

Krystal woke up from being knocked out for a while, then she looked around wondering where she was. Then, she noticed she was in chains around the wrist, legs, and neck. She tried to struggle free. Then, she gave up and tried to remember what happened.

"Krystal, your awake" said Zelda.

"Zelda?" asked Krystal "What are you doing here? Better yet, what am I doing here? And where are we?"

"My castle of course" said a voice from behind (Gannondorf, of course)

"Gannondorf?" said Krystal in shock "I thought Fox, Link, and Kirby said that they sealed you away two months ago!"

"They were right" said Gannondorf "But, I escaped"

"What did you do to Kirby?" asked Krystal

"I took his memory and threw him out. He should be back with your friends by now" said Gannondorf "I don't need him now, I've got you!"

"What are you going to do with me?" asked Krystal

"First, I'm going to question you, then, I'm going to use you as bait for Fox and Link" said Gannondorf.

"What do you want from them?"

"I'm asking the questions! Not you! Ahem. Now, the questions. Where are they, where are Fox and Link?"

"I don't know"

"You don't? Well, how about being more general. You're a part of starfox, right?"

"Starfox? What is Starfox? I have no idea what you're talking about"

"Don't lie to me, Krystal, is it? I know you're a part of Starfox, and I know you know where they are, now tell me"

"I won't"

"Very well, then"

Gannondorf stuck out his hand…again…(When will it end?) and Krystal started struggling, trying not to tell him.

"I won't tell…I can't…AHH!...No!...I won't…te…te…they…no…they're in…they are…I can't tell…they're in the orbit of the Smash Planet!"

"Good, very good" said Gannondorf putting his hand down.

Krystal fell to the floor, gasping for air. She couldn't believe she told him!

"Zelda, I'm sorry, I…"

"It's okay, Krystal" said Zelda "If he has the triforce of power, he has the ability to force the truth out of you"

"He what?"

"He took the triforce of power from Kirby"

"You evil fiend! You won't get away with this!"

"And who's going to stop me? You?" asked Gannondorf

"No, but Fox will" said Krystal "He, Link, and Kirby will come and rescue me and Zelda, they always do! Fox is better than you think!"

"Ah, my girl, that's the whole point" said Gannondorf "I'm using you as bait for them. When they come here to rescue you…Well, let's say I'll give them an offer they can't refuse"

"What are you going to do?" asked Zelda "Make them sleep with the fishies?"

"No"

"What are you going to do?" asked Krystal

"Good question" said Gannondorf, then he turned to a moblin and said "Bring it in"

"Bring what in?" asked Krystal

A moblin came in with something covered in his hand and said "Ist hier Ihr Telefon, Sir"

"Yes, thank you" said Gannondorf.

He ripped open the covers to reveal…a telephone.

"Oh, that's a good one, Gannondorf" said Zelda "Your going to prank call the Starfox, yeah, real evil"

"Be quiet, you" said Gannondorf dialing a number.

Meanwhile on the Great Fox:

"Have you found her, yet?" said Fox

Rob 64 turned around from the computer and said "No, now come back in the next 3-4 hours"

"I can't wait that long" said Fox "this is Krystal we're trying to find. So, have you found her, yet?"

"No" said Rob

"Hey, Fox" said Kirby walking in "This Krystal, who is she?"

"She's a part of the Starfox, Kirby, and I'm worried about her safety right now"

"Oh, she's your girlfriend"

"No…No…Uh…no she's not!"

"Oh, you like her"

"No…I…Uh…Yeah, I…uh…like…like…her"

"Oh, somebody's in love!"

"Yes, Kirby" said Link walking in "He's been in love with her ever since he found her on Sauria"

"Have you found her, yet?" asked Fox

"For the last freakin time, no!" said Rob

"Who taught you the word freakin? Falco" said Fox

"Hey, he was confusing me with all his science, stuff…thing" said Falco walking in.

"Message, Fox" said Rob

"Krystal? Is it from Krystal?" said Fox in anticipation.

"Negative. Getting call" said Rob.

Then, someone's face appeared on the monitor.

"Hello, Flk Team" said the ugly face.

"Gannondorf?" said Fox and Link.

"That's right" said Gannondorf.

"But I thought you…" said Fox

"Yeah, yeah. Sealed me in the sacred realm. That crap. Well, I escaped and now I want my revenge!" said Gannondorf.

"You're prank calling us? Some revenge" said Falco.

Fox looked at Falco, looked at Gannondorf and said "Look, Gannondorf, I'm a little busy looking for someone, so…"

"Looking for someone?" asked Gannondorf "Well, are you looking for this?"

The camera turned to reveal a moblin picking his nose.

"No. Eww, that is gross!" said Fox

"Eh? HEY YOU GET OUT OF HERE!" said Gannondorf.

"Traurig, geehrter Herr, aber ich wähle meine Nase während meiner Durchlaufzeit aus" said the moblin.

"I don't care what you do during you pass time, get out! You're ruining my plan!" said Gannondorf "Honestly, moblins, I have an army of them"

"Is that it or what?" said Fox

"What I meant to say was, are you looking for this?" asked Gannondorf.

The camera revealed Zelda.

"Link, don't think this is a romantic love scene" said Zelda "Because it's not!"

"Zelda!" said Link "Do not worry my love! I shall rescue you!"

"Aw, come on, Gannondork!" said Fox "You capture Zelda all the time. What's new?"

"This is new" said Gannondorf "I have a mailbox!"

"And…"

"I can black mail anyone at any time! HAHA!"

"So?"

"Okay, okay" said Gannondorf "I suppose you're looking for this also"

The camera revealed Krystal.

"Fox! Help!" said Krystal.

"Krystal!" said Fox "Gannondorf, touch one fur on her and I'll…"

"I know" said Gannondorf "Isn't it awful! If you want them both back, then come and get them! HAHAHAHAHA!"

"Where are you?" said Fox

"Somewhere on Smash Planet! Where? That's for you to find out!" said Gannondorf "Let's see if you up to beating me this time. In the mean time, try some of our delicious I-don't-know-where-this-came-from-and-I-don't-want-to-know moblin cookies that I'm mailing you! Bye!"

"WOOHOO!" said Slippy appearing from nowhere "We're getting cookies!"

"Let me guess, Fox" said Falco "You're going down there to save Krystal, right?"

"I don't know" said Fox "He might be up to something. Give me a while to think"

There was a 5 second pause.

"Okay, guys, let's go" said Fox to Link and Kirby.

"Gannondorf has forgotten that we wield the triforce pieces" said Link.

"Triforce pieces?" asked Kirby.

"Three pieces that is an ancient power in Hyrule. One is in each of three people's hands" said Fox "I have the triforce of wisdom, Link has the triforce of courage, and you have the triforce of power. Here, let me show you"

Fox lifted up Kirby's hand. But, then, he noticed that it was missing.

"Oh no" said Fox "This is going to be harder than I thought"

"We shall quest for the retrieval of Krystal, Zelda, the triforce of power, and Kirby's memory" said Link

"You guys go" said Falco "I ain't doing nothing for that girl!"

"Suit yourself, Falco" said Fox.

Fox, Link, and Kirby raced to the arwing. They started it up and headed for Smash Planet.

Meanwhile in the throne room of Gannondorf's castle:

Krystal and Zelda were chained on both sides of the throne, Gannondorf was not there because he had some business to take care of.

"Hey, Zelda" said Krystal "What is Gannondorf up to, anyway?"

"Another evil plan, Krystal" said Zelda "Gannondorf is using us as bait to lure Fox and Link in here so he can take their triforce pieces"

"But, why does he need those?"

"Because, if one touches the triforce he will be granted one wish! He could wish he was Gannon again"

"Gannon?"

"An evil creature that he turned into before Fox, Link, and Kirby sealed him away. He was very powerful in that state. And if Gannon has the triforce, he could once again become the King of Evil"

"Well, neither Fox nor Link will let Gannondorf have the triforce pieces, their too good"

"Gannondorf has his ways"

Gannondorf came walking back into the hallway zipping up his pants. A moblin came to him.

"Did you spread out the clues?" asked Gannondorf.

"Ja, Sir" said the moblin

"Excellent" said Gannondorf

"Aber, Ich erhalte es nicht, Sir. Warum möchten Sie sie hier führen? Warum man nicht Versuch sie stoppt?" asked the moblin.

"What's not to get?" said Gannondorf "I said 'I'm going to make them an offer they can't refuse' didn't I. Get an army of moblins out there in Smash Planet. We can't make this easy for them"

"Ja, sir" said the moblin walking off.

"You know, Gannondorf, you can't win" said Krystal "Fox is coming. He's always there for me. He said so himself"

"Really?" said Gannondorf "Well, I hope that's the case, 'cause I have his girlfriend right here! He won't resist giving me the triforce of wisdom when you're on the line"

"Fox will never surrender something so important to you!" said Krystal.

"Then, we'll see who's more important to him: you or the triforce"

"We'll see then"

"Okay, besides you, what other weakness does he have?"

"I don't know"

Gannondorf lifted his hand.

"I…I…I don't know… let go… don't do it…AGH!... He… He cares for the safety of the lylat system!"

"Good" said Gannondorf "We'll arrange something for that"

Krystal was depressed. How could she be so weak to give in to such power?

"It's alright, Krystal" said Zelda "No one can resist it, except for the wielders of the other pieces"

"I know" said Krystal "I hope Fox gets here safely"

Meanwhile in Smash City:

The arwing landed on a landing pad on top of a building, for some odd reason, he saw Samus Aran and Erik's ship, too. Anyway, they headed to the city hall, where they met Mario. And Samus Aran and Erik were there, too.

"…And that's all we need you to do, Samus" said Mario.

"Alright, Mario" said Samus Aran.

Samus Erik looked back and said "Well, if it isn't the Flk team! What's up!"

"Hey, guys" said Fox "You heard about Gannondorf, too?"

"Gannondorf? No, we're up to something else" said Samus Aran.

"Well, good luck then" said Fox.

"May God be with you in your quest" said Link.

Samus Aran and Erik left.

"Ah, come in, boys, come in" said Mario.

"Hey, Mario" said Fox "Gannondorf is lose, took Kirby's memory, and captured Krystal and Zelda. Any help?"

"No" said Mario "I don't have anything to do with…"

Mario dropped some papers off his desk, he bent down to pick it up. Then, Link noticed something.

"Mario! What is that on your butt?" asked Link

"Link! What is wrong with you?" asked Fox.

"Excuse me" said Mario.

"Hold still, please" said Link getting behind Mario and getting something off his butt.

"What's going on?" asked Kirby

Link gave it to Fox.

"Eww, Link, don't give me that!" said Fox "Wait, it says something 'if you want to find my castle, go to mushroom land for the 1/5 clues. Hurry, I am waiting, and so are Krystal and Zelda. –Gannondorf'. Guys, Gannondorf gave us some clues, let's go!"

"Ah, a quest!" said Link "GANNONDORF! I CALL UPON THEE! I ACCEPT YOUR CHALLENGE!"

"Does he do this all the time?" asked Kirby

"You'd be surprised" said Fox "Let's go to Mushroom Land"

"Do me a favor, Fox" said Mario "Tell Peach that I love her and tell Luigi that I did not leave that turd in the toilet. He did that"

"Okay, Mario" said Fox

"Oh, and if you receive word from Sonic the Hedgehog, tell him I hate him and I said no" said Mario.

"Okay, can we go now?" asked Fox

"Yes, you may" said Mario "After you…"

But Fox, Link, and Kirby sped out the door.

"Drat"

Fox, Link, and Kirby raced to Mushroom land to find the 1/5 clues. Will they make it alive and save Krystal and Zelda. And what does Gannondorf have in store for them?

To be continued…
