Chapter 2
Mirror World, another world parallel to Planet Popstar. A world full of beautiful as the ones from Popstar. Legend says that Dreams were to come true here in the peaceful water. However, something wasn't right. It wasn't actually the planet itself that was wrong. The situation itself is much more than just complicated. Whatever it was, this is going to change the lives of the Pink Puff Ball and the Purple Puff Ball. The two Star Warriors were watching two unconscious children named Lucas, and Jeff rest in the peaceful water of the fountain of dreams. 'I have a feeling one of the children is having a dream of something terrible that could happen in the future.'
(Must there be a Superman - Hans Zimmer plays)
The Masked knight spoke, refusing to sleep for three days straight. The same can be said for Kirby who is willing to help the two children, even if he has to leave his home planet. This wasn't something that the two Star Warriors can ignore. If they could get any information from the unconscious children, then it would really help them. Perhaps there is still life in them despite their condition… or maybe they're having visions something terrible. Either way, something told the Masked Knight and the Hero of Dreamland that it was no accident.
Meanwhile, somewhere in dream of a Corrupted Planet Earth
Out from nowhere, the boy, Lucas, awakes in a slumber sleep. He was staring at the red and orange skies flowing continuously like wind currents. However, these colors of the sky weren't beautiful but rather dark and hellish. A beastly roar expands through the face of the Corrupted Earth. It shook the now nearly lifeless planet itself. Scared for his life, Lucas rises on his feet and sprinted away from the terrible Black Dragon, the Shadow who flew in circles, creating a storm that would have wiped out the entire solar system. It was resisting the corruption of the Red Antediluvian Cloud, one that would put anything in darkness forever. Lucas ran for his life, horrified of what has happened to his once home world.
The Black Dragon fought the cloud of the Embodiment of all Evil. The roar of the beast alone shook the corrupted world. The Earth tore apart into hell. The ground beneath them bled. The roar and the Primordial Red Cloud clashed and fought. The Sun became what is known as a Sun full of red blood. The power of the Black Dragon was although incredible, no match for the Primordial Red Cloud. The Beast could only delay the doomsday of the world for so long. Lucas could only run for dear life across the now brown world. He was alone in a time of doom. One would question if he deserved a fate like this.
Suddenly, something has occurred and it wasn't pretty at all. The Beasts of Evil had emerged from the corrupted world itself. The fiery blazing dragons of the Dread One and the red clouded three head lions marched at the poor child. Lucas didn't look back; he ran for dear life, horrified of the Beasts themselves. However, one of the beasts had forged a chain of hell, whipping it at the poor child and dragging him like a slave on the rope. The boy screamed like no living being ever did. The voice of suffering was beyond anything anyone had been through. The pain felt like more than billions of stars burning out. Unfortunately for the Beasts, the suffering lasted a few minutes as a spark of ice from nowhere freezes the chain, breaking it apart. Free of the grip, the boy continued to sprint for his life.
A fight emerged across the face of this burnt planet. Humans that were once powerless living beings were now wielders of PSI. They waged war on the fiery dragons and three headed lions. The light and fire clashed violently. The corrupted world shook to its heart along with the battle. Something in view for poor Lucas became beyond what he could take in his eyes. The ground he was standing on became a river of blood as the magical creatures of the Embodiment of all Evil dominated the fight. The three headed lions, made up of red cloud, tore the anuses off the super humans like tissue paper. The fiery dragons ate the legs of the PSI humans for snack. The battlefield became a lake of blood that expanded forever on this world. The lake of Blood then condenses as fire where the flesh of the dead humans turn to skeleton.
The Earth continues to burn for the Fire was immortal, everlasting. The ocean itself cannot even put out a speck of the unholy fire. It wasn't just any fire. It was the flames of someone or something so powerful that the entire universe itself wouldn't be able to match it alone. It would take something much more powerful than the Entire Universe to fight it, let alone destroy it. Lucas was running for dear life away from the Beasts of Evil. It was beyond what he could fight. The army was slowly cornering the poor to death. It was the end. His fate has been sealed. However, it wasn't quite over yet. The army had perished into thin air like magic. , one where it was darker than any realm of existence.
A sudden doom had come to poor Lucas. It was the Fallen Angel, Tyrant and the Dread One, Dormammu, walking to the poor child with the intention to kill him slowly. Each foot step darken the Astral Realm, making it more brooding and gruesome. Lucas could do nothing but crawl away from these monsters. It was beyond anything anyone had been through. This could be the end. There was no escape from the Dread One nor the Embodiment of all Evil. It was only death that poor Lucas had to face. "You're dreams and your future are no more, little child." The Dread One said in a dark tone. Suddenly, everything blacked out into darkness along with the plane of realm. The boy screamed as the unconscious body of a naked Ness appeared before him. The Dread One had impaled the poor child with his own hands full of hate.
(The Music Ends. A Beautiful Lie - Hans Zimmer plays.)
Lucas awakes from what could have actually been a vision or the worst nightmare he ever had. However, his mind raced through what he can remember. He saw a resting Jeff on a separate bed, sighing in relief that his friend was alright. Unfortunately, the memories of the Red Primordial Cloud approaching Earth raced in Lucas' mind. The boy got a headache that would be fatal to regular humans. However, something was going to prove beyond fatal to the Boy. Lucas remembered when he fought the Beasts of Evil with Jeff. With the purple puff ball and the pink puff ball in the same room, the Masked Knight asked the little child. "What happened? Are you alright?"
At that moment, Lucas remembered everything. His eyes timed traveled through the past images of what happened to Earth. The Embodiment of all Evil and that Dread One breaking it apart. Tears from his eyes dropped like raindrops from a thunderstorm. Lucas entered a state of Melancholy. It was a fate worse than Death itself. It was an unbearable pain for him. It felt like his heart was tore apart inside a black hole. At that moment, the boy sprinted outside the peaceful house, and went across the fountain of dreams. The Pink Puff Ball chased after him with Metaknight doing the same. Meanwhile, Jeff wakes up and spots Lucas running away from the two puff balls.
The boy continued to sprint across the clear water of the fountain. He breathed heavily not just because he was running for too long but he was regaining the terrible memories of his doomed home world. The water of the fountain would make a reflection of the happy side of the boy, a life which Lucas would live if he didn't possess PSI. Ness and Jeff were playing outside with Lucas, happy together in the reflection of the water. Now, it was nothing more than an illusion, a beautiful and painless lie to Lucas. None of this mattered to the boy because he lost a best friend. The flashback of Ness giving that warm smile to Lucas before being engulfed in that cosmic blast forces the boy to fall and stumble on the beautiful water.
What happened to Ness caused Lucas' happy soul to rip apart in the void. The unbearable pain was getting to Lucas like the Darkness would try to tempt someone into doing something for the Shadow. The boy then took out something that would have ended the depression, a knife from his doomed planet. The poor child breathed heavily, willing to end the pain himself by drawing out blood from his heart. Before he could do it, the knife was flicked across the water like a tennis ball from one red oval foot. It was Kirby who had round house kicked the weapon. The Pink Puff Ball comforted the boy in his chubby arms. Metaknight arrived and watched the two in silence. Meanwhile, Jeff arrives at the scene. He found his best friend Lucas alive and welcomed by the Pink Puff Ball, Kirby. Jeff felt relieved that his friend was safe, so he approached the purple puff ball and the pink puff ball slowly with caution.
"Thanks for saving him... Who are you two?" The two puff balls turned their attention to Jeff with curiosity on their side. The two Star Warriors would allowed Lucas and Jeff to stay on Planet Popstar for their safety. For once, Metaknight and Kirby had a feeling that they would have to abandon their planet to go on another great adventure. It wasn't exact, but the Pink Puff Ball felt it through the wind blowing at night. It was to be expected for the two Star Warriors.
(Music ends.)
Meanwhile in the Red Primordial Cloud.
A fiery being covered in a black battle armor watched the corrupted planet slowly age into darkness. Just watching the once powerful black dragon to the beaten and helpless one caused a gritty laughter of fire. This wasn't just any plan to capture or kill. This made everything evil look sane. The Dread One was nothing short of insane. He was born with it, carrying it out as if it was a tradition to him. There was no sympathy from him. No remorse was found in the deep black heart of this rather ungodly deity. There was only death. For further proof is shown when a shadow from behind moved, sparking its demonic eyes with bloodlust in its hunger.
