Disclaimer: Y'all know that I don't own Kirby and stuff like that so...yeah...
Yay! New chapter!
Just to be more clear, in this story, NOVA lives inside a clockwork comet, and she herself is one of the Ancients and she operates the comet that's named Galactic NOVA.
Also, this chapter is full of flashbacks woooo!
-Flashback-
Days passed by, months, years...millions and millions of years that were nothing for the Ancient who managed the clockwork. NOVA felt bad for the person stuck in the crystal in the middle of her center of operations. She knew his name was Galacta Knight, that he had done some unforgivable things... but what where these "unforgivable" things? What had the young man done that caused this to happen to him? Why did this guy do such things in the first place?
All these questions would always pop up on her mind when she saw the pink crystal.
The loud beeping sound rang again. She sighed, probably it wouldn't be so bad, would it?
She saw a pink haired kid, wearing pink...well...everything. Though his shoes were red, and his eyes were blue and sparkling with hope. He wore a necklace with a star on it. The star glowed faintly. She could tell this child was strong, maybe even a star warrior.
"WHAT DO YOU WISH FOR?" NOVA typed.
Before the child could reply, a purple haired guy with jester clothes and a hat, showed up, pushing the young one out of the way.
"Well...I wish to take over popstar!~" The guy said with a devious smile, his tone didn't help it either. He sounded undoubtedly...mad, evil, many other words that NOVA couldn't just think up from the top of her head.
She didn't even want to give the wish to him.
It wasn't his.
NOVA knew very well, but the rules were...she had to grant whatever wish was wished, no matter what happened out there, no matter in what underhanded ways they found her.
She sighed and typed in the response.
"OK, 3, 2, 1..."
The giant comet's eyes glowed, so did NOVA's. She knew this wish was bad. It was bad.
She was right. Her ship had been destroyed by both the pink kid and the jester. She had to repair it...it would take sometime, even more time now that the jester had somehow absorbed the magic of the clockwork and turned it evil, and also...NOVA had been injured, the upper right side of her face had been hurt in the explosion. Now she had a scar that she hid under her golden bangs, it brought painful memories.
NOVA groaned as she was now floating in space, trying to fix the giant clockwork device without much of her magic. Luckily, the pink child had destroyed the evil being, and somehow returned the magic that the evil jester had stolen, back to NOVA.
The clockwork comet was fixed, and the sealed knight was back to it's place.
-end of flashback-
NOVA sat by herself on the living room, reading a newspaper Galacta had brought her so she could catch up to current events.
The cover had a kid...the kid looked just like the one she had seen years ago, the one that the jester had tricked.
"Kirby ends the corrupt reign of Queen Sectonia and adds a new landmark to dreamland...interesting. Kirby always does this kind of thing... Maybe it's because Meta Knight is his mentor..." NOVA murmured to herself.
Yes, she acknowledged that. Though, she couldn't say such thing around Galacta Knight...not after what happened between him and Meta Knight.
She turned to the next page. She gasped.
"Oh no...I-i need to warn him!" NOVA stammered as she stood up and paced back and forth. She couldn't do anything to help him now, hopefully he would be alright.
What was this thing she had found out?
-flashback-
The blue-caped warrior looked at the clockwork. He looked fierce and determined. NOVA knew he was Meta Knight, one of the few star warriors to be alive after the great war with the wizard, Nightmare.
Once more.
"WHAT DO YOU WISH FOR?"
"I wish to fight the strongest warrior in the galaxy!" The masked knight exclaimed. NOVA sighed. This guy clearly meant business. She wondered who the strongest warrior in the galaxy was... And she wondered why would he want to do that? Maybe to improve his fighting. Maybe.
"OK, 3, 2, 1." The comet counted off.
NOVA turned around. The crystal which held an ancient knight was now gone.
She looked outside. The magenta-haired warrior stretched, it must have been a pain to be stuck in that crystal.
The blue knight pulled out his sword, his yellow eyes gleaming with excitement maybe?
Galacta Knight glared at Meta Knight.
He quickly turned around and flew to a nearby blue planet, the blue knight followed and had probably caught up to him.
-end of flashback-
Somewhere in Popstar, somewhere over the clouds, Galacta was looking at the beautiful landscape under him. It was breath-taking.
He sat for some time on the clouds, looking at the sun set over the horizon which was a never ending sea.
"Enough sightseeing, shouldn't you
be on your way to Kirby's home?" A familiar deep voice spoke. Galacta looked up and surely enough it was Meta Knight.
"I know I have to take care of Kirby...jeez...how did you find me anyways?" Galacta groaned.
"I was just on my way to where I was going. I had told Kirby that you were on your way, but it seems you were being lazy-"
"I wasn't being lazy! I was just enjoying this sunset...it's not like I can't be free to do whatever after millions and millions of years being stuck in that jail."
"... Maybe you would have not been locked up for eons if you hadn't killed innocent people just out of anger..." Meta Knight sighed.
"How do you know that was what actually happened!?" Galacta screamed, quickly turning at Meta, his pink eyes turning red. Galacta despised being reminded of that.
"...No... And I do not want to listen to you whine. See you later..." Meta Knight groaned as he spread his wings and took flight.
-Flashback-
Galacta Knight took in a shaky breath, he was on the verge of losing the battle against Meta. His title was soon going to be taken away by him. He had to do something...but Meta Knight was as strong as he was or maybe more.
Galacta knew he only had one move left that would save him, one that would probably end this fight, so that he could escape far away.
That was all that Galacta wanted. Freedom...and vengeance too.
Galacta Knight summoned a mach tornado, hoping it would blow away the knight. He was wrong. Meta Knight had avoided it with simplicity.
Galacta froze. He was fearful.
The blue knight quickly attacked him. Everything went dark after that.
Galacta Knight was defeated. He was now floating in space, he was too weak to fly, too weak to do anything. His vision was blurring, yet he swore he saw a blue shining starship fly over him.
He thought he was over with, his life was on the line.
He woke up inside a room. It was lighqt blue room, there seemed to be machines around. He looked in front of him. A screen with ancient writing, which Galacta Knight could easily read.
-end of flashback-
Galacta arrived at Kirby's round house, he knocked the door. No answer.
"He's probably sleeping..." Galacta mumbled, he walked to the closest window and took a peek inside.
No one was there.
He felt watched, he looked behind him. Meta Knight was there.
"W-what are you doing here?! Where's Kirby!? What did you do to him!?" Galacta was panicking. He had no idea what was going on.
"Kirby is fine. relax, I'm only taking you back to the GSA."
"B-back to that place?! No no no!" Galacta stammered. He knew not to trust them.
Out of nowhere, someone hit him on the back of his head. He was unconscious.
Why does the GSA want Galacta Knight back?
:3c well... There's always a next chapter.
