Chapter 6: Rebellion

Tiff and Tuff ran through Cappy Town. They burst through the doors of Chef Kawasaki's restaurant. It was during the evening hours in which the restaurant gets the most customers. All of the seats were filled and the people were all eating the food on their plates. Tiff and Tuff walked up to the center of the restaurant and waited for everyone's attention.

"Thank you," said Tiff.

"Have anyone seen the television lately?" asked Tuff.

"Not really," said the mayor, who was eating at the table in front of Tiff and Tuff.

"King Dedede trying to force hard labor on the citizens of Cappy Town!" shouted Tiff.

"What do you mean?"

"He's trying to force us to build a monument for him today!"

"Oh that is terrible! Let's go complain to the King!"

"Yeah!" shouted all of the Cappies in the restaurant. They all got up from their seats and walk up to the door, but Tiff ran ahead and blocked the exit.

"Uh…don't jump to conclusions yet!"

"What is the matter?" asked the mayor.

"We can't just waltz into King Dedede's castle. He's…uh…gonna try to kick you guys out again!"

"No! This time we are going to talk to King Dedede! Let us go through Tiff!"

"He's never going to listen to you! You should just wait until all this is passed. Besides, I'm sure the King must have forgotten about it." A sweat drop formed over her forehead. The mayor pushed Tiff out of the way and walked out of the door. The crowd of Cappies immediately followed behind, leaving Tiff and Tuff alone in the restaurant.

"We have to do something!" shouted Tuff.

"It's too late…they're far too ahead of us."

The Cappies marched through the streets of Cappy Town, gaining followers along the way. By the time the Cappies reached the castle, the entire town was a part of the group. They stopped in front of the gate.

"Open the gate!" shouted chief Kawasaki.

"We demand to speak with King Dedede!" shouted the mayor.

Waddle Doo popped his head out of a window and looked at the crowd of angry Cappies. He sighed and walked away.

"Just ignore them," he said to the Waddle Dees who were in charge of opening the gates. "It's just another futile attempt at a rebellion."

"Open the gates!" shouted Mabel.

There was no reply.

Tiff and Tuff arrived at the front of the castle. They saw that he crowd of Cappies were shouting at the door, hoping to grab some attention.

"You know, King Dedede is not gonna open the gate," said Tiff to the crowd.

Suddenly, Samo and some group of male Cappies appeared with a giant log in their grasp. Tiff and Tuff turned their heads and they instantly became more nervous.

"Do you really think they can break the door down?" whispered Tuff.

"I don't know…"

The Cappies holding the giant log stood a few feet away from the gates and pointed straight at the door. The other Cappies stood on the side and watched eagerly. Tiff and Tuff remained still, crossing their fingers hoping that they would fail. The Cappies with the log ran forward.

Waddle Doo quickly opened the gate thinking that the Cappies had left, but he saw a giant heading towards him. He screamed and tried to run away, but he was slammed into the wall. The Cappies dropped the log and saw Waddle Doo.

"Let's go!" shouted Curio.

All of the Cappies ran into the castle and went straight into the throne room.

King Dedede was sitting in the throne room, watching channel DDD through the large screen. He moved his eye balls and saw the Cappies standing by the door.

"Hey! Aren't you guys supposed to build the monument in honor of me!" roared King Dedede.

"No! We refuse to do that!" shouted the mayor!

"Well I am the King and you guys gotta do what I say! Sword! Blade! Get rid of these Cappies!"

There was a long awkward silence. King Dedede placed his hand on his chin and quickly grew impatient. "Where are they!?"

Tiff jumped in front of the crowd. "Let's just leave! He obviously won't listen to us!"

"Are you sure about that Tiff?" asked Curio.

"I'm sure!...Don't worry King Dedede, we'll take them away for you!" Tiff grabbed Tuff's hand and nervously walked out of the throne room.

"What's her problem?" mumbled King Dedede.

The crowd of Cappies followed Tiff and exited the castle.

"Guys…Sword and Blade had left. We cannot let King Dedede know that they're missing. They went to get Meta Knight back. Hopefully he can help us with this situation," announced Tiff.

She took out Blade's digital camera and planned to explain everything to the Cappies.

---

The sunlight entered through the tiny window of the jail cell, but Sword and Blade were already up. Sword was sitting on the cold ground, staring at the other side of the jail cell. Blade was sitting on the raised platform, blowing on his harmonica. He was playing some random, yet sad tune. Sword looked at him.

"Where did you get that harmonica?"

"I just found it."

Sword stood up and walked up to Blade. He snatched the harmonica and threw it out of the tiny window.

"What was that for!?"

"It's annoying."

Sword sat down on the cold floor. Blade lied down and stared at the ceiling. The two knights were bored out of their mind. Suddenly, they heard foot steps from the other side. They jumped up and ran up to the bars.

It was the town sheriff who entered. He walked up to the jail cell and took out a pair of keys. Sword and Blade stared at the sheriff's hand. Their hearts were beating at a faster rate, waiting for the door to open and let them be free. The sheriff accidentally dropped the keys.

"Damn you!" shouted Blade.

"Hey! Do you want to stay here for an extra day!?" shouted the sheriff.

"At the rate at which it's going to take you to open the door, I'm sure we're gonna be here for an extra day."

Sword elbowed Blade. "Be quiet. Don't make the sheriff think wrong about us."

"They already think wrong about us," whispered Blade.

"That doesn't mean we should make them think worse of us!"

"I just want to get out."

The sheriff continued to search through the keys. The two knights stared at the sheriff as if he was a giant chicken wing. Besides being mentally unstabled from being in an jail cell for an entire day, Sword and Blade were very hungry. Once the sheriff found the correct key, he placed the key on a nearby table and began to walk toward the door.

"Where the hell are you goin'!?" shouted Sword.

"I have to go to the bathroom. I drank a lot of orange juice this morning," replied the sheriff.

"You're not gonna open the jail cell for us!?" shouted Blade.

"I'll come back."

"Oh come on!! You guys said for one night! It's obviously not night! Let us go! We weren't supposed to be here in the first place!"

Blade ran up to the iron bars and tried to shake it, but the sheriff already walked off. He slid to the ground and looked beyond the bars. Sword walked up to Blade and also looked beyond the bars. Both of them were staring at the keys.

"Are you thinking what I'm thinking?"

"I want some orange juice…" mumbled Blade.

"Me too…"

The sheriff returned to the jail cell and picked up the keys once more. Sword and Blade once again stared at the hand that grasped the keys. The sheriff found it much more quickly and this time he opened it. Sword and Blade raced out of the jail cell and collapsed.

"It feels so good to be back in the beautiful world!" exclaimed Sword.

"It has only been one night," said the sheriff.

"We can really leave?" asked Blade.

"Of course! Now leave before you become a threat once more!"

The two knights nodded their heads and ran out of the door. They got out of the town as quickly as possible. Once again, they were walking under the burning sun. The temperature was a couple degrees lower than yesterday, but the heat was enough to make them sweat.

"We finally made it out, but I'm so hungry," whined Blade.

Well…I could have made it longer, but I'm not trying to make this a long fanfic. XD I wished I could have taken more time in revising it, but my weekends are always busy! DX I hope you guys enjoyed it nonetheless! ^^ I am happily writing fanfics once again! :D
