What is your fave kirby transformation? :D
The walk out of the grassy fields were bearable for the girls, but walking through the rocky plains were horrible, their clothes kept catching onto rocks and cracks in the ground. Alyssa had to shed her pants, because by now they were all holey. Thank god that her sweatshirt went to just above her knees. Alice had tied the sleeves of her shirt around her neck and shed off her pants and shoes. Now it looked more like a short dress. Alex just had on a really baggy shirt."So do you think we'll be able to find some answers at the castle?" Double D asked, still not used to the concept of only having a sphere for a body and he tripped on a rock, rolling into Eddy up ahead. "Sorry..." He said, flinching as Eddy hit him on the head.
"Well, that castle had better have some cash, because that's the only reason I'm going!" Eddy stated. Everyone but Ed rolled their eyes at this.
"It memory serves me right, the king is a fat, greedy pig who likes to torment everyone." Alyssa said, scratching her chin in thought. Alice and Alex snickered.
"Does that mean we've got a king here as well?" Alex asked, picking up Eddy by his hairs.
"Hey! What is that supposed to mean?" He yelled. A waddle doo then walked nearby, a spear in hand and he wore a sash with an orange circle on it that had a white outline of a bunny head in it. It's big eye noticed them, and it ran off. Double D was wondering why though.
"Hey Alice." Alex said, Ed now walking next to her. Alice turned around a bit and began to walk backwards.
"Hm?"
"Have you even touched Eddy once since he became a kirby?" She asked. Alice shrugged and lifted an eyebrow, wondering what she was going at. "Well, their skin is like, mega soft. Softer than my pillow!" She said. Alyssa and Double D overheard their conversation and looked at each other, then at Alex and Ed, who were hugging. Alice looked at Eddy, then looked at the road ahead.
"Eddy! Look out!" Alice said, seeing a fireball in the distance coming at Eddy. Leaping, Alice grabbed Eddy and narrowly missed getting incinerated by a big fireball. Looking up, everyone saw a giant octopus spitting fireballs at them. Alex and Double D were running for their lives, trying not to get hit. Thinking quickly, Alyssa kicked Eddy into a incoming fireball. Eddy was screaming and praying that all of this was just a bad dream.
"INHALE IT!" He heard someone yell. Opening his mouth, he allowed himself to suck in the flaming ball. It landed in his mouth, and swallowed. A large flash hit everyones eyes before they saw Eddy's transformation. He had a crown on and his body was more of a reddish yellow. Flames portruded out of the top of his head.
"Woah." Eddy said, landing to the ground and taking in his own appearance. The octopus loomed over them all, preparing to strike with another fireball. Eddy opened his mouth and breathed out this time. A whole mass of fire came out of his mouth. He was breathing fire! The flames that came out were yellow and red flames came out of the beast.
Seeing as it had more than one opponent, the octopus started to spew tiny octopuses and they attacked. When they hit the ground, they exploded like little bombs. Double D ran about until it was too late and he had to suck in one. The tiny one was incoming fast, so he sucked it in, swallowed it, and felt something explode in his tummy. A flash and Double D looked like Eddy, except his appearance was a darker red.
"Man, I wish I had my knives with me..." Alyssa grumbled, dodging a giant tentacle that tried to crush her.
"Sock head! Help me burn up this thing!" Eddy yelled. Double D reluctantly agreed. Alice and Alyssa grabbed them both, nodded to each other, and threw them as high as they could above the giant octopus. Eddy let loose all his flames on that thing, and Double D had to take a few breaths before breathing more flames. Soon enough, both Eds were out of flames and back to normal, with the octopus monster in ashes.
Alex kicked the ashes with her foot, but then they were carried of by the wind. "What the hell was that?" Eddy asked. Alex just shrugged and they continued their journey to the castle. Unaware that at that very moment, someone was spying on them from the castle with a spyglass.
Castle
"Your majesty! Take a look at this! Just like waddle doo said, there's some intruders in the kingdom." The old snail, Escargon said.
"Lemme see!" King Dedede, a fat penguin wearing his usual red robes and such snatched the spyglass and zoomed in on what Escargon was looking at. Three unusual creatures wearing large clothing, he couldn't properly see all the details because of the distance, and little yellow, green, and red blobs were with them. Weird... if you looked a little closer, he could have sworn those were...
"KIRBYS!" Dedede yelled, panicking. He threw the spyglass and ran inside. Escargon caught it and rushed in after his majesty.
"What are we going to do? There's already enough trouble with one kirby running rampant around here!" The snail worried. Dedede just laughed and plopped into his chair.
"We'll just give them a nice welcome then!" He said, and pressed a button to activate his demon beast machine.
Outside
Double D rested in Alyssa's arms, exhausted from using so much breath on that monster. His heart was also pounding. Eddy seemed fine, he kept bragging on and on about how many monsters he could beat to Alice. The black haired girl just giggled listening to him. Soon enough, they came to a small village just outside of the castle. The six walked through the streets, ignoring the looks and whispers the citizens were giving.
"What's their problem?" Alex asked.
"They are probably unfamiliar with visitors from other places." Double D pointed out. A flyer caught his eye, it read: Demon Monster battling tournament in three days, show your strength and sign up! Double shivered, the very though of fighting something as scary sounding as a demon beast is one thing he would like to stay out of.
Coming to the castle, the drawbridge was up. A waddle doo stood guard on top of the wall.
"State your buisness here foreigners!" He yelled in a squeaky voice. Eddy was about to yell back some rude remark but Alice clamped a hand over his big mouth.
"We need to talk to the king!" Alex yelled. Ed then waved to the waddle doo and the orange puffs eye widened as far it would go.
"You shall not pass! Kirby is the enemy!" He yelled, then disappeared.
"Oh yeah, I forgot the king hated kirby..." Alyssa said, sheepishly smiling at the impatient Eddy.
"What? If they won't let us in, them I'm going in!" Eddy said, and walked up to Alice. "Can you throw me over the wall?" Alice looked at him weird.
"That's not a bad idea. Here, you throw Eddy and I'll throw Double D, like last time." Alyssa said. She picked up Double D.
"H-Hey! Why do I have to go with him?" He questioned.
"So Eddy won't run off by himself and forget to lower the bridge. Now GO!" Alyssa and Alice threw the two Eds over the wall, and Alex threw Ed, who was pretending he was superman.
Inside the castle
All three boys landed inside with a plop. Since their skin was really soft, they didn't get any more brain damage then they already had. Double D rubbing his head and readjusted his hat. Eddy was already up and about. He began to search through barrels and chests for anything valuable. "Eddy! Stop that!" Double D cried, tugging Eddy out of a wooden chest. Ed got up and joined Eddy going through stuff.
Double D followed his friends through the entrance halls until they got to the main switch for letting down the bridge. Unfortunately, it was guarded by little waddle dees and that waddle doo. "Hey Ed, go check if those guys have anything good on them." Eddy said, hiding behind a corner with Double D and Ed. He agreed whole heartedly, wanting to get a closer look to these strange creatures. Ed leapt at them with a crazy look in his eyes. The waddle dees were startled by this sudden appearance and had no idea what to do.
While they were distracted, Double D and Eddy ran at the switch and pulled it down, releasing the bridge. It hit the ground in front of the girls loudly alerting everyone in the castle of their entrance. They ran inside just before the waddle dees made sense of the situation and pulled back up the drawbridge. The six of them were surrounded by the waddle dees, all holding spears and looking at them angrily. The little kirby Eds were kind of afraid what would happen, but the girls had little hearts in their eyes. The little orange puffs were just so adorable.
"I feel... like I'm in creampuff land..." Alice said dreamily. Eddy looked at her with a invisible raised eyebrow. Alex agreed whole heartedly, but Alyssa didn't say anything. She just shook off the sudden urge to hug all these little puffs and grabbed a spear from one of the soldiers. It tried to grab it back, but Alice stopped it and looked hard at it with her icy blue eyes. It stopped trying and huddled into the corner in fear. Alyssa stopped another one from charging at her with just her foot.
"Hey! That's cruel!" Alex said. Everyone raised an eyebrow at her. "Hey, even I have some kindness!"
"Look, we just want audience with the king. Afterwards, we will leave." Double D tried to tell them. The waddle doo nodded and led the six away. The walk through the long hallways was well... long. They finally reached a giant door and the waddle doo opened it to reveal the fat penguin king bickering with a man on a tv screen. There was some sort of podium in the center of the room. The lights were dimmed out.
"You must pay the rest of the fees before we send any more." The man said, holding up an abacus. Obviously, the numbers were pretty high.
"Screw you! I never pay because all your 'powerful' demon beasts always fail to destroy Kirby!" The king yelled, and shut off the tv screen. The podium sank into the floor and the lights in the room returned.
"Um, your majesty?" The snail said, tapping the king on the shoulder.
"What?" Escargon pointed to the people before him.
"What the- how did you get through my security?" The king yelled, taking in their appearance. Three cute alien girls and three kirby copies with hair. The blonde snorted.
"What security? You mean that orange one eyed ball of fluff who literally led us right to you?" she said rudely. The little yellow kirby snickered. The black haired stomped on the blondes foot, making her yell out in pain.
"Shut up!" She hissed in Alex's ear.
"We only ask for some proper clothing and a map of the area. We will try to pay back for your service as well as we can your highness." Alyssa said, trying to be polite. She even bowed slightly for emphasis. The sweatshirt rode up her leg slightly.
"No! The king does not take beggars from the street, not begone with you!" Escargon ordered. Eddy fumed.
"Beggars? What the hell! We're not beggars you overgrown side dish!" Eddy yelled at him.
"How dare you!" Both of them kept on shouting insults at each other until Dedede bashed Escargon on the head with his hammer. Eddy snickered.
"I have come to a decision that you will get the clothing and other things you need, but..." He said, lowering the girls hopes of getting real clothes that fit. "-you have to give me the three kirbys and allow me to use them as monsters for this little tournament I'm having." He said, an evil grin on his face.
"Brilliant your majesty!" The snail said. All six of them were speechless.
"I wanna fight! I wanna fight!" Ed yelled, jumping up and down on his little green feet. Alex hugged him and scowled at the king.
"They aren't monsters." Alice said.
"Hey, it's alright Alice, if these monsters are anything like the ones we fought on the way here, its sure to be a piece of cake!" Eddy assured. Alyssa looked at Double D, who seemed kind of nervous about all this.
"You want to?"
"...No, but if it's to get us our necessary materials, I'm going to have to." Double D scratched his head.
"All right then, Escargon, lead these kirbys-"
"We have NAMES you know!" Eddy yelled. "It's Eddy!"
"I'm Eddward, but people normally call me Double D." The red kirby with the ski hat said.
"ED!" said the last one. Dedede just ignored them and continued where he left off.
"to their new rooms. I will personally lead the young ladies to where they can find some more suitable clothing." Escargon sighed but did as he was told, leading the three boys out of the throne and leaving the girls with Dedede.
"Why do I suddenly feel a large chill in the room?" Alyssa whispered to Alex.
"I don't know, but I feel it too."
At Holy Nightmare
"Seems that those boys will be entering a competition." The man with glasses said. The figure behind him chuckled.
