Chapter 3: The Mushroom Castle Siege
30 minutes earlier.
Ike, Daisy, and Luigi are helping move the meteor out of the castle.
"This thing must weigh a ton!" grunted Ike.
The meteor turned out to be the least of their worries, because as suddenly as the meteor appeared, an army of airships appeared. Jumping down from the ships was not only Bowser's minions, but some Hyrulian beasts, Popstarian monsters, and Underworld creatures. The three got ready to fight back these armies, but they knew that there were far too many. When the troops were all grounded, a voice boomed at them. "You should all give up now, or face the armies of Sca!"
"Never!" shouted Ike.
"Wait what was that last word? Scah?" asked Daisy.
"No, its an acronym, S-C-A, it's an acronym," responded the voice.
"But what does that mean? And who are you?" shouted Daisy.
"None of those questions matter, I'm tired of your games, SCA, attack!" ordered the voice.
Luigi shot toward the armies like a missile, but immediately, a lizalfos grabbed him and showed Daisy and Ike tauntingly. As Luigi was about to give up squirming, something at high speed slashed at the enemy, freeing Luigi. At that moment, the Halberd, ship of Meta Knight, came into view and started firing at the enemies on the ground. Luigi and the pink puffball himself, Kirby emerged from the enemy crowd.
"You lived?" Shouted the voice angrily.
"Your attack on Popstar was not enough to defeat me," shouted Meta Knight, from his ship.
"Well I succeeded, in that I already have Dedede's army for myself,"
"King Dedede is our friend, and you caused him to disappear, we still don't know where he is, so you must pay!" shouted Kirby.
"Not if I get you first!"
The biggest airship drifted to face the Halberd from the side, revealing a large cannon loosely attached to the ship. "This time, you certainly can't escape," said the voice, sternly. The cannon fired, causing a large explosion in the Halberd, the shockwave knocked everybody out.
25 minutes later.
When Daisy came to, the Halberd and several airships were grounded, with heavy damage to all of them. To her side Kirby and Ike woke up, and then from the Halberd wreckage emerged Meta Knight. The fleet of airships was gone, with the cannon laying on the ground, completely obliterated… "must have been one shot," Meta Knight wondered. Luigi was nowhere to be seen, but she had a sneaking suspicion he was gone, because his hat was the only thing left.
Daisy thought to herself aloud, "They must have grabbed him in a hurry, and not seen us buried underneath the rubble."
Ike chimed in, "I think the ships were heading toward Bowser's Castle, Marth, Roy, Mario, and Peach could be in grave danger!"
"If I stay and repair my ship, I should be able to fight back against the ship more effectively, you three should head to the castle.
Right before Peaches kidnapping.
The airship fleet approached Bowser's castle. A figure reveals himself to be an old man in a bulky mechanical suit. A familiar voice echoes through the hallows of the ship, "It is unfortunate that we couldn't capture Daisy, or even Ike, I suppose, but Luigi will be enough for the bargain."
Back at the Halberd wreckage.
Meta Knight works alone to repair his ship, he knows it well, it shouldn't take much time. After a few minutes of Kirby, Daisy, and Ike leaving, two figures show up at the wreckage, a princess and a young knight. "What in the world happened to the castle?" wondered the girl. "Is anybody there," called out the boy. Meta Knight looked up to see the two looking right at him. "Hi, I am Princess Zelda," said the girl, "and this here is Link."

Okay, I uploaded the first three chapters all at once, but the next is going to take a little more time. I have no idea how long this will be but I have a ton of ideas, I hope you can enjoy reading this as much as I did writing it.
