Two Pieces by Demi Lovato

Lucario sat alone in his room, both of his paws placed as a "stool" for his chin and his curved blue tail swooshing left and right in boredom. It was late at night, and most likely a majority of the Smashers were sleeping. Lucario wasn't one for sleep, but he still couldn't stand doing nothing for more than a few hours. He could meditate, sure, but he already did that today and didn't feel like it anymore. Groaning, he pushed away from the desk he sat at and lazily began spinning on the chair his bottom was on top of. His ruby eyes just watched as the room blurred by, a yawn causing his long snout to open wide. Arceus, he sure was tired, maybe he should just go to-

The jackal's bottom paws hit the wood floor, causing the chair to stop it's turning with an ear-wrenching squeak. His two long ears twitched when he heard a noise he hardly ever heard.

Someone was crying.

Lucario wasn't one for spying on people, but someone being out this late at night, and crying at the same time, was not a good thing. Master Hand always locked the doors at 10, but now it was at least 1 in the morning. And an angry Master Hand was not something you'd want to be around.

Standing up, Lucario walked over to his door and placed his ear to the smooth wood. Hearing the sobs get significantly louder, he placed a paw on his golden doorknob and twisted, the door opening with a silent creak. Slipping out of his room, he tiptoed down the hallway while listening for the cries. Peering behind the corner, the Pokémon's eyes widened slightly when he saw who was crying.

It was Kirby.

Kirby cried quite a lot, there was no denying that. Most of the time, it was when the mansion had no food or he couldn't eat the freshly made cookies that Peach makes. But there have never been any reports of the puffball sneaking out to eat. Besides, Zelda and Snake just went out to get food this morning!

Quietly, Lucario walked over to the crying child and sat down on the floor next to him. "Kirby..." He said using his telepathy. Kirby looked up at him with wide eyes, tears pouring out of them like waterfalls.

"P-Poyo...Nightmare..." He mumbled, surprising Lucario. The Pokémon raised an eyebrow. He was told by King Dedede that citizens of Dreamland were protected from nightmares and were blessed with good dreams for their entire lives. Nightmares never came to Kirby or Dedede. Though he didn't know about Meta Knight, he guessed that the same was with him.

Crouching down to the puffball's height, he pat Kirby's head. "It's okay..." Kirby just sniffed and buried his face next to the large spike on Lucario's chest and into the soft tan fur. Lucario sighed and put his chin on the top of the child's head, feeling a tear slip out of his eyes. He too, hates nightmares. More than anything in the world.
