Part 2
"What in the world?!"
Kirby was sitting in his house surrounded by the piles of food that he collected.
"Is this your lunch," Tokkori complained, perched on top of the pile. "How did you carry all of this?"
Kirby was happily gulping down his spoils. Just then, his Warp Star burst in through the window, knocking the bird over. It slid under the puff ball and bounced him on top causing him to throw the watermelon he was holding. The fruit landed right on top of Tokkori. Then, the star flew back out the window. The bird, covered in watermelon juice, glowered at the star as it flew away.
"No time to explain, Kirby!" Bun shouted.
"We'll send you lunch later!" Fumu added.
"What is going on?" the bird cried and he flapped over to them.
"Tokkori, you have to go to the village!" Bun replied.
"You have to warn everyone about the dangerous delinquent boy!" Fumu shouted.
"Delinquent boy? What are you yammering on about?"
"Just go!" Bun yelled as he grabbed the bird and threw him like a dart toward the village.
In the village, everyone was enjoying the day. The women were chatting with each other, the children played, a chess match was in play, and most of the men slept.
"Danger! Danger!"
Chief Borun shot up out of sleep, crushing his rocking chair.
"There's a dangerous boy coming!" Tokkori shouted. "Beware of a punk kid with a really bad sense of fashion!"
Just then, a bolt of electricity stopped the bird in his tracks. He fell to the ground, crispy fried.
Everyone turned to the source.
"Get out of my way!" Knuckle Joe yelled as he charged into the town.
They couldn't react fast enough, even with the warning. Knuckle Joe blew right past them, knocking some over and leaving some spinning. He continued to sprint until he was out of town. The villagers gathered in awe.
"What was that?" the chief asked.
"The punk boy," Tokkori replied weakly.
Knuckle Joe kicked down the door to Kirby's house.
"Kirby! Where are you? You can't hide from me!"
Joe began throwing punches at the fruit. A watermelon lodged onto his fist.
"Well, apparently you can," he muttered as he pried the melon off, "but not for long!"
He ran back into town and started interrogating the people, kicking their things and grabbing their collars, demanding where Kirby is. None of them knew where he was since Kirby is poor and doesn't shop anywhere. He went into the bar and sat down at a barstool.
Sam the barkeeper, who was calmly wiping a glass, asked, "What will it be today?"
"Kirby," Joe answered.
"Hmm, sorry we're out of that today. It'll be in next time you come in."
Knuckle Joe didn't appreciate that smart ass response, so he trashed the place.
"You all are playing dumb and hiding Kirby, aren't you?!" he screamed in anger.
Then he ran to Chief Borun and filed a complaint. The old police officer pulled out a pen and notebook.
"So, who is hiding who from you?" Borun asked.
"You all are hiding Kirby from me!" Knuckle Joe replied.
"Mhmm, I see," he muttered as he scribbled that down. "And uh, why do you want to meet him?"
"I don't want to meet him, I want to fight!"
Borun's eyebrows pressed together.
"He is the enemy of my family! My father was killed by a Star Warrior!"
"And you think Kirby…?" Then Borun started laughing. He added, "That's ridiculous."
The elf boy kicked the chief into the nearest building.
"Kirby! I can't believe a Star Warrior would hide from me!"
"Who wouldn't hide from you?" Tokkori added, perched in a tree.
Joe threw an energy ball at the bird.
"I will find you!" he shouted into the sky.
In the castle, Sword and Blade came up to a room that they heard noises in. They peeked in to find the room looked as though a tornado hit. The bed covers were lying every which way. All the cabinets were thrown open and their contents spewed about. Meta Knight was throwing things out of a drawer.
"Where is it?" he groaned in desperation.
Finding nothing, he began diving into his pile of clothes.
"Uh my lord, what are you looking for?" Sword asked.
"His face!" he cried looking at them with wild eyes, an underwear hanging off of his head. "I have it in here! I know I do! I'm not crazy!"
He went back to searching.
Blade leaned over and whispered, "This is a new level of weird, even for him."
Sword nodded.
Meta Knight took out a drawer and dumped its contents onto the floor. Among other things, a book tumbled out with something hanging out of it.
"Ah ha!" he cried happily.
He picked up the book and opened it up to the item that was hanging out. He closed the book and turned it in his hand, wondering what importance the book held. Then, he shrugged and threw the book over his shoulder.
"See? I found it!" he said and he showed the object to his knaves.
It was a gold necklace with a large, oval locket at the end of it. The locket was embroidered with an eight pointed star and a blue circle in the middle.
"A locket?" Sword asked.
"Why is that so-?"
"I have no idea, but that kid's gotta know," Meta Knight said as he lumbered through the messy piles he created. "I have to find him!"
Then, he dashed down the hall. The knights sighed and ran after him.
Why Meta Knight has clothes in his room is unknown since he only wears one outfit. Maybe he hordes them?
