UPDATE: added some story elements. Read the (almost) end before continuing on!
Before we start this story, here is a disclaimer. The intro will contain canon Kirby's adventures. Since I am lazy to explain everything, these intros will tell you things.
There might be times where I don't put such things in the chapters, but for the most part, there are canon!Kirby stories.
Final thing: I encountered a bug which turned everything into the wrong font! So I had to copy the whole thing, paste this chapter which does not support fonts, copy that, and then paste it here. It's possible that it's not a bug since I learned a way to do such thing easier, and it might be connected to such 'bug'.
Enough of my ramblings, let's start!
The hero fought many foes, but his main goal is to make friends. He didn't know his origins, nor his parents. But he saved the world nonetheless.
But there is one that is still bothering him, the leader of the Dark Matter itself, Zero.
Zero is a formidable foe the hero will admit, but what bothers him is not just the way it attacks (which is using it's own blood, gross), but it's the fact that it cannot feel happiness. And he 'killed' it.
The hero just wanted everyone to be happy. That's what a child would think when young... that's true, but it's something that is worth doing for him. That's why the hero is... a hero, despite his young age.
To put this in more detail in three words, he basically failed... but he is still energetic despite so, because he saved the world in the end. What a Pollyanna.
But in another universe however...
Dark Star (which is a character in The Super Mario Bros. Franchise! Coincidence?)
The Puffball egg is now in it's warm nest-like thing, which is made out of black cloud-like things (I know, pretty generic if you ask me).
"When will it hatch again?" The Eyeball moaned, getting impatient about the hatching process.
"According to my calculations, it will be... approximately a month. A Popstar month." Answered the assistant.
Now the Eyeball is frustrated. He has to wait a month for the egg to hatch!? "Is there a faster way?" It asked, trying to hide it's irritation.
"The minimum time is in two weeks." Said the assistant.
"Oh... ok then." The Eyeball said.
'This will be interesting...' the Eyeball thought. And boy, it did.
(Non-canon galore)"Hello there my name is Mayumi Nakajima I am literate is well I am Mario it" (another line replacement, basically my sister testing the speech-to-text thing... and it's not accurate. {and she said my full name! I don't regret posting this at all!})
Over two weeks later...
One of the Dark Matter decided to check the egg in the nursery. Lucky it is, it gets to see the hatching process.
"Guys! The egg is hatching!" The cloud creature said.
Other Dark Matter then came in bursting into the room, trying to see the egg hatching. Squeezing the others in the process causing some suffocation things to happen. Then, their leader came in.
"Could you get out of the way?" Said the Eyeball. The others then moved out of the way.
The Eyeball approached the egg, then looked at it as the egg cracks. Then, the hatchling emerged.
"Poyo!" It said when it came out from the egg. The Puffball is pastel pink in skin color, with two sapphire blue eyes and stubby little hands. It also has red feet, and rosy red cheeks. No hair at all, since it's skin seems like elastic.
The Puffball The looked around, then stared at the red eye.
It stared at it for a few seconds before saying "Mama!" With a smile in it's face. The Eyeball jumped in surprise, also feeling something that it cannot explain. It shook it off, thinking that's it's just nothing.
And so, the other Dark Matter then celebrated this special occasion by hosting a party. Their own way of course.
Zzz(-u-) shh! He's asleep!
Days has passed since the Puffball has born. He never got a proper name but, some Dark Matter sometimes call him 'puffy' or 'pinky' or whatever.
The Dark Matter had to go for some babysitting and things, but the child did got bullied by the other children for being different. Luckily, the Eyeball is here for him, and he did make friends with some. Some... failures from the leader's perspective.
There is the time where they ran out of food supply, and had to go to Popstar for such. The assistant did go and get some food, but he needs to be in a disguise in order to do so. But that is a different story.
But while finding food, it found a peice of clothing. It is white with red and blue polka-dots. It's a blanket. When they gave it to the Puffball, he tugged onto it.
It has been rinse and repeat in the everyday life of the Puffball for a long time, never changing a lot.
Three years later...
"Poyo?" The Puffball said, holding on his blanket. It's his favorite time of day, dinner! He is wondering when dinner is ready, and he is getting impatient.
"Nope, not yet! Just wait for a little bit more." The assistant said, just adding the final touches for the cupcakes that it is cooking for the Puffball.
The Puffball then sat on his chair, his grip getting hard on his blanket while having a grumpy face. He's getting impatient, and hungry.
"Poyo..?"
"It's done!" The assistant then gave the Puffball the cupcakes. The frosting is pink, and it's base is orange-ish, as always.
The thing is, the assistant gave him special cupcakes for toddlers. Basically, cupcakes for toddlers with the necessary vitamins for a baby Puffball.
The toddler then sucked up the cupcakes into his mouth, then gulped them all in one go.
He then smiled, since it's delicious today. Just like always.
After that, the Dark Matter then brushed his teeth, some of them teaching him of how to do so, much to the Puffball's dismay. Then he took a bath... alone.
And now it's bedtime. The Eyeball carried the child to his bedroom. It's nothing special really. It's just the plain old crimson background.
It put the Puffball to sleep, then put him in the crib. He tugged onto his blanket. "Good night" it said, but with no emotion as it always had been.
And will always be. No exceptions.
To be continued...Pretty rushed I know. I just didn't think really hard. But hey! At least I posted something!
Anyways, how do you like the new cover? I drew it by myself! Yeah, I know Kirby is supposed to be a little bit more smaller than that, but at least I drew a cover!
Next chapter will have new characters, and some... other things! So see you soon!
