Gamelover41592- Oh they are.
Okay, time to take the fight to the Squeaks! Let's get going.
"Yay! It's cold!" Owen cheered.
"You must have really hated the heat," Kirby noted.
"I did," Owen said.
"Then let's get going," Kirby said. At this point, he was hoping the Squeaks hadn't eaten his cake.
"Finally!" Owen said as he grabbed the ability scroll from a chest. It was for sword!
"Oooo! This is a good one!" Kirby said once he saw what it was. They could make fire, electric and ice swords.
"This is so cool!" Owen cheered as he waved around a new fire sword.
"These will definitely come in handy," Kirby noted as he held up a similar sword, crackling with electricity.
"Okay, that's all five of these things...hopefully," Kirby noted.
"What even are these things?" Owen asked.
"I have no idea. And if they are sealing something away, why are they just in the middle of nowhere?" Kirby asked.
"This world has no logic," Owen said.
"No kidding" Kirby agreed. "But hey, that's what makes it fun!"
"This one is for fighter!" Kirby said as he pulled out another ability scroll.
"Let me see!" Owen begged. He had just gotten fighter and was having some fun with it.
"You can make bigger blasts," Kirby explained.
"Hadouken!" Owen said as he launched one of said blasts, which was now bigger in size.
"Owen, why did you say that?" Kirby asked.
"Because you say it whenever you do one of the blast thingies," Owen explained with a shrug.
"Oh yeah, I do say that," Kirby realized, a little embarrassed.
"What is a Hadouken anyways?" Owen asked.
"I don't know," Kirby admitted. "Just feels like it fits,"
"Aw, it's another lame one!" Owen exclaimed as he read over a new ability scroll. Kirby grabbed it to see what he meant.
"Owen, you just don't like cupid because the wings don't carry you that high," Kirby pointed out. It was true. Owen's weight kept the wings from taking him to far.
"Exactly. No fun for me!" Owen protested.
"Okay, I can fire three arrows that defy gravity now," Kirby said.
"I like the bow," Owen admitted.
"So you would like an ability that let you use just the bow?" Kirby asked.
"Wouldn't that be cool?!" Owen asked.
"Sure, why not?" Kirby said with a shrug.
"It's almost done…" Owen noted as Kirby grabbed another ghost medal piece. Only two pieces seemed to be missing.
"Owen ...I promise if this summons a ghost, I won't let it hurt you," Kirby assured his son.
"Promise?" Owen asked.
"Promise!" Kirby promised. This got him scooped into a big hug.
"Thanks daddy!" Owen said as he squeezed tighter.
"No...problem!" Kirby managed out.
"What is it with everyone who has an aura of mystery having a ship shaped like their faces or headgear?" Kirby asked as he and Owen walked into the Squeaks' ship, which was shaped like Daroach's hat and ears.
"Ego?" Owen offered.
"I don't know why you insist on trying to reclaim this," Daroach said, sitting atop the chest.
"Because you are big meanie that stole it and our cake!" Owen declared.
"The king wasn't going to miss it. He had it locked away in some secret storeroom," Daroach said with a wave of his paw.
"Well he must have had it for a reason!" Kirby declared.
"And give us back our cake!" Owen added.
"Cleary, you two do not know how the rules of 'finders keepers' work, seeing as you beat up my squad just to reach me," Daroach said as he teleported into the air. "But I will be your teacher. And your foe!" With that, he pulled out a wand of some kind, which he started charging.
"Look out!" Owen cried as he and Kirby jumped out of the way of a large ice beam. Daroach, fitting his role as a thief, was fast. He also had a lot of ways to hit Kirby and Owen. However, when he fell, they noticed another person swiping the chest
"...why does Meta Knight never tell us anything?!" Kirby exclaimed as he and Owen chased after him.
"Where has he been this whole time?" Owen asked. "Training?"
"...Now that I think about it, I may have sunk his ship in the Secret Sea," Kirby admitted. Suddenly, the star seals started glowing.
"What's happening?!" Owen asked.
"They are doing...something!" Kirby realized. The seals flew off in the direction of the Secret Sea, revealing a way in.
"They made a way in for us!" Owen realized.
"Then let's follow them!" Kirby said as he and Owen rushed after them.
Two ability scrolls, one more ghost medal piece and several complaints about Meta Knight being annoyingly secretive later.
"Okay, Meta. Since you seem to know so much about it, what is in that chest?" Kirby said as he and Owen burst into the sunken Halberd's cockpit.
"Ah, I was unaware you two were trying to retrieve it," Meta Knight admitted.
"Well, that and our cake," Owen added in.
"The chest contains Dark Nebula. It as an offset of Dark Matter," Meta Knight explained. "It is highly dangerous and should never be released,"
"Okay, that is really bad. But why did Dedede have it and not you?" Kirby asked as he rubbed Owen's back. Cleary their last fight with Dark Matter had left him with more then a few bad memories.
"Because Dedede just liked the chest. I explained to him what is was and he agreed to keep it hidden," Meta Knight explained. "I was going to destroy it today, but perhaps it would be best if you two did it,"
"Alright!" Owen cheered. "One less bad guy!" He and Kirby walked over to it, each with a weapon in hand.
"Ready Owen?" Kirby asked.
"Ready daddy!" Owen said.
"One!"
"Two!"
"Th-gah!" Daroach shoved the duo out the way. The Squeaks had followed them!
"No!" Meta Knight said as he rushed forward, sword in hand.
"At least, the ultimate power is MINE!" Daroach declared as he opened the chest.
Then everything went wrong.
Dark Nebula surrounded him before taking off into space.
"Boss!" Storo cried.
"What happened?" Spinni exclaimed.
"Your boss got possessed!" Kirby explained.
"Pleaze! Zou can help him, right?" Doc begged. Owen and Kirby looked and each other before nodding. Kirby summoned a wrap star and the duo flew after him.
I almost made Secret Sea its own chapter, but I realized it would just be what was written in bold, so I just fused them into one chapter. Also, much like Dedede, Meta Knight is not fought. I gave him a reason for not explaining. Of course, Daroach didn't listen. So we are headed into Gamble Galaxy to take down Dark Nebula. See ya then.
