"Telepoomotion... to the Seed Kingdom!" Poomo said as the heroes fell out of the portal, Penny quickly catching the twins before they could crash to the ground.

"What an interesting way to travel!" Penny mused as she puts Fine and Rein down.

"So, this is the Seed Kingdom?" Sonic said, before noticing the tiny mushroom houses.

"What is this? The Smurf's Village?" Eddy questioned.

"So cute!" Fine and Rein said.

"I see! Everything is tiny here in the Seed Kingdom."

"First, we'll pay our respects to their castle-pumo." Poomo motioned to a giant tree.

"Their castle is a tree?" Aya said.

"This reminds me of FernGully!" Ed grinned.

"Aaaaaand they're ignoring you again." Eddy said as they see Fine and Rein gushing over the tiny houses.

"Fine, Rein, please be careful!" Double-D said. "You don't want to risk destroying the good citizens of this kingdom's property!"

"Do they always do this?" Penny asked.

"Yeah, we make sure they don't go far," Luigi said.

"Let's follow them so they won't break anything." Tails said as they carefully walked around the tiny town.

"I feel like a Kaiju rampaging around the city of Tokyo!" Ed said as he does some roars and stomps, which made some of the heroes laugh.

"Yeah, reminds me when we turned you into a monster once, Ed." Eddy chuckled.

"I still have nightmares..." Double-D sighed.

"Fine! Be careful!" Mario exclaimed as Fine was about to trip on a house, but he caught her in time. "Gotcha!"

"Thank you, Mario." Fine sighed in relief before noticing the tiny villagers.

"I wonder what they're doing over there." Rein said.

"A festival?" Fine wondered.

"Wouldn't hurt to see." Knuckles said.

"Let it rain, let it rain, cats and dogs." The villagers chanted. "Let it rain, let it rain, cats and dogs."

"Let it rain, cats and dogs?" Rein wondered.

"It's such a sunny day, what's wrong with it?" Fine looked up in the sky. "Isn't it obvious that it's nicer when it's not raining?"

"Maybe they need to grow their plants?" Mario said.

"After all, it's vital for the rain to feed the nurture plant life," Double-D explained, only for the tree to start glowing and for Fine to disappear in a flash of light.

"Huh? Where did Fine go?" Aya said.

"Did she wander off?" Penny wondered.

"Everyone! Down here!" They looked down seeing Fine had turned into a tiny monkey.

"EH!?" The Heroes all gasped.

"What happened? Why is everyone so huge?"

"Uh...Fine is that you?" Tails asked awkwardly.

"Who else would I be? Why did you become humongous anyway?"

"Oh my god! Fine has become a monkey!" Rein exclaimed.

"A... monkey?" Fine looked at herself before going to a window and sees her reflection. "Wh-What!? No, no way... Why do I have to become a monkey!?"

"We've got to do something quick!" Rein said.

"Aw, she looks so cute," Ed said as he picked up and began petting the monkey Fine.

"Eh, stop that! I'm not a pet!" Fine protested.

"Why do I feel she looks more natural now-pumo?" Poomo said.

"UKKY! UKIK-KY! UKKY!" Fine exclaimed which made the Heroes sweatdrop.

"WAIT!" They turned to see some of the tiny villagers chasing monkeys who are stealing fruit.

"More monkeys!" Ed said as monkeys ran past them before one turned to Fine.

"Hurry, we've got to run-kky!" He exclaimed before dragging Fine by her tail.

"FINE!" Rein cried.

"They're kidnapping her! I'll save her!" Ed said as he leaped forward, only to fall flat on his face, missing by a mile.

"Darn, they got away already." One of the tiny villagers said before noticing giant feet and looked up seeing the giant heroes.

"Sup?" Sonic waved.

"M-Monsters!" The tiny villagers ran away in fear, the heroes feeling various ways of offended.

"Monsters!? Did he mean us?" Eddy asked with an annoyed twitch on his brow.

"Wait, we're not monsters!" Penny said.

They see tiny soldiers marching in with green caterpillar-like pups as tiny figures were sitting on them.

"Where are the monsters-dane?" A tiny king said.

"Waai! Waai! Monsters! Monsters!" The Seed Princesses cheered excitedly.

"The Seed Princesses!" Rein said.

"They're so cute!" Penny gushed as she leaned down.

"Rein! Everyone!" Harney said happily.

"So those are the monsters-dane? Prepare to fire!" The King ordered as his soldiers ready their cork guns.

"Now, now, your Majesty. We bring no harm to your kingdom." Double-D said.

"I doubt those guns will harm us," Eddy said. "Let 'em try to take us down!"

"I feel like Godzilla, you guys!" Ed laughed.

"Wait, Father!" Harney cried.

"Don't worry-dane. I, King, will protect my kingdom-dane." He said before turning to the Heroes. "Ready, aim..."

"Father, those are not monsters!" Gorchel spoke. "That's Princess Rein of the Sunny Kingdom and her friends!"

"Hm? Princess Rein? A second look confirms that you are right-dane."

"We're pleased to meet you, I'm Princess Rein of the Sunny..."

"I wouldn't care less about your greeting-dane!" The King interrupted Rein. "Just tell me, why are you all here?"

"Sheesh, no need to be rude." Sonic said.

"You see Your Majesty, as a matter of fact, we..."

"I see-dane!" The King interrupted Double-D. "King Truth told you to check out the Mother Tree-dane?"

"No, we..." Mario tried to speak.

"I know-dane! Don't worry-dane! I, King, will do whatever it takes so the Mother tree will be..."

"Father," Ichele spoke. "Rein and her friends just came over to have fun with us. There's nothing more to it."

"Hm? You came over to have fun-dane?'

"Y-Yes, you could say that," Rein said sheepishly.

"Why do you always jump into conclusions, Father?" Gorchel said in annoyance, folding her arms.

"Anyway, why aren't any of you with Fine today?" Harney asked.

"Actually..." Rein explained to them.

"Huh?" Each of the Seed Princess said one-by-one.

The heroes took the time to explain everything to the Seed Kingdom people. King rubbed his chin when he was told about the tree glowing and Fine turning into a monkey.

"That's a curse from the Mother Tree-dane."

"A curse?" Double-D gasped.

"Every plant in the Mysterious Star is born here in the Seed Kingdom," Harney explained. "The Mother Tree, which is also our castle, bears various plants according to the seasons, But it hasn't rain for a while, and everyone is worried, because if this goes on, the summer plants won't grow."

"Is this because..." Rein asked worriedly as Poomo nodded.

"The Blessing of the Sun is getting weak, I'm sure of it-pumo."

"And Fine said it'd be nicer if it wasn't raining," Harney said. "I suppose that's why she got cursed by the Mother Tree."

"So that's how it is." Sonic frowned. "Sheesh, talk about capital punishment for an honest mistake."

"How do we break the curse?" Knuckles asked.

"We're sorry but we don't know." The Seed Princesses said simultaneously as they shook their heads.

"The more important problem is the Ukkys-dane!" The King said.

"Ukkys?" Luigi said. "Like Ukikis?"

"I remembered one stole my cap back in Tall, Tall Mountain," Mario said, furrowing his brow in annoyance as he recalled the memory.

"Ukkys are the monkeys that kidnapped Fine," Ichele explained.

"They're really bad guys who steal fruits and nuts from our village-dane!"

"Thieves!" Ed gasped.

"Organize reinforcements right away-dane!" King ordered his troops.

"I'm here to help you!"

Hearing the familiar voice, everyone turned to see none other than Tio there.

"Hey, It's Tio!" Sonic said.

"Why are you here?" Rein asked.

"More importantly, how did you get all the way here?" Eddy asked.

"In order to have the honor of helping you, Fine-Sama, Rein-Sama, and the rest of you, I've come swiftly from the Flame Kingdom! I swear I will rescue Fine-Sama!" He posed with his sword and laughs triumphantly.

Penny giggled. "He reminds me of Jaune."


Everyone soon began making there way to the Ukky territories. Rein had a worried look on her face as Luigi gave her a pat on the head.

"We'll get her back from those big-a monkeys, Rein," Luigi said.

"Don't you mean little-a monkeys, Weegee?" Mario playfully asked as his brother laughed in response.

"Hold on Fine, we'll save you for sure." Rein thought to herself.


Meanwhile with Fine, she was busy scarfing down an apple as the other monkeys stared at her.

"Refresh my memory, who is that-kky?" The Elder of the monkeys asked.

"She's hogging all the food like no one else." A monkey frowned. "I never saw her before-kky. Hey, you newcomer over there!"

Fine looked up. "Are you referring to me?"

"Who else could it be-kky!? I'm talking to you, silly girl-kky!"

"What a rude way to talk! Don't called me silly girl!" Fine yelled. "I have a name, and it's Fine!"

"Fie-kky?"

"No, It's FINE!"

"Anyway, Fie-kky, come here and say hello to the boss-kky!"

"I've been telling you, I'm FINE!"

The Elder stared tensely at her as she groaned.

"Geez, I'm in the middle of my lunch."

She stood up but she tripped on her tail. The other monkeys laughed at her as she was embarrassed. She ran to the tree, but she gasped to see how high it was.

"Eh!? I'm supposed to climb all the way up there!?" She complained.

"Come quick-kky!"

"Okay, okay, I will." Fine sighed as she attempts to climb, but she kept on slipping back down.

The monkeys kept on laughing at her as she growled. "UKKY! I'm not done yet!"

After many attempts, she gets the hang of it as she was about to reach the Elder's Throne, but she falls down screaming.

"Fie-kky!" The monkeys exclaimed.

As Fine was about to hit the ground, she gets caught by a giant hand.

"Eh? She turns around to see a giant ape with a red tie around his neck that says 'DK'.

"You okay, little fella?"

"U-Um, yes."

"It's Donkey Kong-kky!"

The monkeys cheered as DK grinned.

"Donkey... Kong?" Fine blinked as DK puts her down.

"Remember to use your feet to grip while climbing."

"My feet?"

"Of course, remember that."

"Hey DK!"

They turned to see a monkey with a red cap.

"What up, Diddy?"

"Just making sure what all the commotion was about," Diddy said.

"Um, what is going on?" Fine asked as DK set her down.

"Oh, let me explain." DK spoke. "Me and my pals were all on our island, then there was this huge flash of light and before any of us knew it, we got transported here."

"We met these little guys and we've been protecting them since." Diddy finished.

"They are our guardians-kky!"

"Guardians?" Fine said.


Back with the Heroes, they kept on marching as Tio unsheathed his sword.

"Just bring it on! For Fine-Sama! I'll overcome any-AAH!"

"Tio?" Rein and the heroes all turned to see the Flame Kingdom Prince had vanished.

"He vanished," Double-D said.

"Wasn't he with us?" Aya asked.

"Eh, he probably took a shortcut." Eddy shrugged.

"That must be it, we must hurry-dane." The King said as they nodded. But unknown to them, Tio was hanging by a branch with swirling eyes.

As they walked through the trails, they noticed something about the forest their walking through.

"Look out!" Penny shouted as she grabbed the Mario Bros before a trap almost got them.

"Mama-Mia, thank you Penny!" Mario thanked.

"I'm scanning this location has tons of traps. We have to be careful."

"But who would want to trap us?" Tails said.

Ed stepped one of the traps which triggered it, sending a giant flying rock heading his way but he managed to avoid it.

"I think I seen these before you guys!"

"Hey yeah, I feel like these were set up by..." Eddy was about to finish, but Rein stepped on something which got them all trapped in a man-made cage.

"Rolf has captured dinner!"

"Rolf?" Double-D said in surprise as it was the farm boy from their home.

The Son of the Shepard faltered. "Do Rolf's eyes deceive him? Ed Boys?"

"Rolf! You're here!" Eddy said.

"Why yes, Rolf has been in the wilderness for a while. A terrible light shined upon Rolf and now I am here."

"Can you let us out?" Sonic asked.

"Why yes. Alas, Rolf shall go without dinner today."

Rolf released everyone from the cage as the Eds took the time to explain everything to him afterward. The only guess that Princess Grace summoned him at the same time she summoned them.

"The Mysterious Star? Ah, Rolf has heard stories of the Mysterious Star from his Great Nano!"

"You know about the Mysterious Star?" Rein asked in surprise.

"Yes, and if the Blessing of the Sun is in trouble then Rolf shall aid you!"

"Well guys, looks like we got another member for the team!" Sonic grinned.


"I'm so tired," Fine groaned as she managed to reach the Elder, but then she sees another elderly primate with a cane.

"Why you managed to reach us, color me impress."

"Who are you?"

"I am Cranky Kong." The elder introduced himself.

"Kong?" Fine said.

"Yes, I am that big oaf DK's father. Our whole family was brought here by that strange light." Cranky explained.

"Whole family?" Fine asked only to see several more monkeys with Cranky.

"Meet Dixie Kong, Chunky Kong, Lanky Kong, Kiddy Kong, Funky Kong, Tiny Kong and Candy Kong."

"Yo, what's up?" Funky grinned.

"So many Kongs." Fine looked in awe before her stomach grumbled. "Um, do yo have anything to eat?"

"Kky? Anything to eat...?" An Ukky spoke before looking down.

"Well, you see the little monkeys don't have anything to eat." Chunky said.

"What? You don't have anything to eat?" Fine gasped. "But I saw a lot earlier!"

The Elder Ukky sighed. "That's what we took from the Seed Kingdom without asking-kky"

"You took without asking? You stole them!?" Fine said.

"It was the only option for us-kky. Lately it hasn't rained at all, and the trees aren't producing any nuts here in our mountain-kky."

"We've been helping them get fruits and nuts even though we have to steal," Lanky said.

"Yeah, it ain't right for us to steal, man," Funky said. "Makes us no better than King K. Rool and his Kremling Krew."

"Ah, it hasn't rained. I see, so that's why..." Fine remembers the villagers chanting to rain.

"Besides, the person who's wrong is the king. We want to tell him about the disaster to come in the mountain but..."

"He thinks they were going to take over their Great Tree." Tiny said.

"That king jumps into conclusions so easily." Candy frowned.

"Yes, he doesn't even listen to us." The Ukky said. "First of all, the mother tree is meant for everyone in this kingdom-kky! And yet the king is..."

"A complete fool!" Cranky said, banging his crane against the ground. "Honestly, even I don't jump to conclusions that quickly!"

"Even so, it's not right to steal!" Fine said. "You have no right to blame him if you only care about yourselves!"

She gasped what she said before remembering what she said earlier, then She turned to the Ukkys.

"I'll talk to the king for you, so stop stealing, Boss Ukky!"

The Elder Ukky growled before an Ukky stepped in.

"Big trouble-kky!"

They see the Seed Kingdom troops and the Heroes marching.

"Re-Rein! Everyone!" Fine gasped.

"What are those humongous things-kky?"

"When did they get such secret weapons?"

"All hands to your battle stations-kky!" The Elder Ukky ordered.

"No, don't!" Fine exclaimed. "You're not going to solve anything by fighting! They'll understand if you talk to them!"

"That's just a waste of time-kky! If we don't destroy them, they'll destroy us-kky!"

"Boss Ukky!"

The Elder Ukky growled. "Confine her-kky!"

Fine gasped but the Kongs got in front of her.

"Sorry Elder, but we're not going to let you do that." Candy said.

"I agree with her," Cranky spoke. "We should just talk to them, isn't that right DK? DK?"

"He's gone!" Diddy said as Cranky sighed.

"What am I going to do with him?"


We're near their territory-dane." The King said. "Everyone, stay alert-dane!"

They noticed something getting launched towards them.

"Are those pinecones?" Eddy said.

"Watch out!" Rein said as she blocks them from the incoming pinecones.

"Are you okay, Rein?" Double-D asked.

"Yes, thanks for asking."

"Darn monster. Shoot-kky!" The Elder ordered as the Ukky launched more pinecones.

"Fire-dane!" The King as his troop fired their cork guns.

Everyone got to cover as they were firing, corks and pinecones flying everywhere.

"We can't go forward in this-pumo." Poomo said.

"What should we do?" Rein said.

Ed peaked out of his hiding place and gets pinecones in his eyes.

"I've been hit! Tell my mother I respect her!"

"Ed!" Eddy and Double-D cried as they tended their friend. As everyone tried to figure out what to do, a shadow loomed over Mario and Luigi as they looked up.

"BANANA SLAMMA!"

"HOLY RAVIOLI!"

The Bros got out of the way just in time as the figure crashed to the ground, then the dust cleared revealing DK.

"Okay, who am I fighting?"

"Donkey Kong?"

"Mario?"

The plumber and Kong both looked at each other in surprise.

"What are you doing here?!" They both said at the same time.

"Prepare the Ukky Ukky Missile!" The Elder Ukky ordered.

"Ukky!" An Ukky saluted as the other Ukkys readied a boulder attached to a tree on a slingshot.

"Stop it!" Fine ran in along with the Kongs.

"Don't do this!" Diddy said.

"Like I've been saying, they'll understand if you talk to them!"

"King is the one who doesn't want to talk-kky! We did try to talk to him-kky."

"But you're not going to achieve anything if you keep this up!" Candy said.

"Stop this, right now!" Cranky said, waving his cane as Elder growled.

"It's too late now-kky."

"No, it's not too late. I'll go talk to them!" Fine said as she ran ahead along with the Kongs.

"Wait, Fie-kky!" The Elder exclaimed. "Don't launch the Ukky Ukky Missile yet-kky!"

But it was too late, the Ukky cut the rope as the boulder was launched. As the heroes were taking cover, they noticed the boulder coming their way.

"Rolf's eyes fool the brain of Rolf!" Rolf said.

"What are you talking about, man?" Sonic asked.

"Rolf's eyes fool the brain of Rolf. Must I spell it?"

"Look out!" Tails yelled, but DK got in front of them and readied a fist.

"BANANA... SLAMMA!" He punched the boulder into pebbles.

"King!" Fine said as she ran up to the King. "Are you okay?"

"Yes, thank you-dane."

"Are you guys okay?" Diddy said before noticing the Heroes. "Mario? Luigi?"

"Diddy Kong! And the rest of the Kong family!" Mario said.

"Hey, Diddy Kong!" Sonic waved, the chimp noticing him and waving back.

"Sonic! I haven't seen you since the last Smash Tournament!"

Before there could be any more reunions between the two groups, Knuckles noticed something by the corner of his eye.

"Hold it, is that Eclipse?" Knuckles said as they turned to see Eclipse carrying Rein.

"Why did you save me?" Rein said as Eclipse puts her down.

"I can't let any of you die until I solve the mystery of the Blessing of the Sun." He said before leaving.

"Your Majesty, please listen to me." Fine spoke to the King. "The Ukkys didn't do anything out of evilness!"

But then, they heard rumbling as a boulder was about to tumble down a cliff.

"This isn't good-ukky!" The Elder said.

"If that thing falls down, we'll all be buried under here-dane!"

"Rein! Everyone!" Fine ran to them.

"Fine, glad to see you're okay." Sonic said, crouching down to pet her on the head.

"Rein, let's Prominence."

"You can't do that if you're a little monkey-pumo."

"Uh... but if nothing is done... if nothing is done... I just want them to understand each other!" Fine cried as the Mother Tree glowed and Fine turned back to normal.

"Fine, you're you again!" Mario said.

"Poyo!" Kirby cheered.

"The curse has been broken!" Ed said as the boulder began tumbling down.

"The boulder!" Knuckles said. "I got this!"

"No, I got it!" DK said but Fine and Rein took out their Sunny Luches.

"Fan fan Fine!"

"Ran ran Rein!"

"Prominence dress up!"

They transformed as Rolf and the Kongs looked in awe.

"Twin twinkle bloomish! Save everyone from the rock!"

Magic sparkles formed into a water geyser as it blew the rock away.

"You did it-pumo!"

"Aw yeah!" Sonic grinned.

Unfortunately, the water geyser created a tsunami, causing everyone to make a break for it.

"I am King Neptune! King of the seas!" Ed laughed as he jumped around in the water like a dolphin with his friends in tow.

"Aw yeah!" Funky surfed on the current with Candy and Tiny.

"Gah! I hate water!" Sonic cried as he struggled to swim only to be pulled out by Tails.

Kirby has manifested a snorkel and innertube and was cutely floating along the water as Penny flew above him with Aya riding on her shoulders.

Mario swam in the water before grabbing King and the Elder before they could crash into a rock face.


Later, the valley was filled with water, becoming a lake as the heroes were gathered.

"So that's why you stole the nuts?" The King gasped. "I didn't know anything, forgive me."

"We're responsible too-kky." The Elder said. "We should have tried harder so that you'd listen to us-kky."

"And please don't jump into conclusions or interrupt us when we're speaking," Double-D said.

"Yes, I apologize for acting like that-dane." The King turned to the lake. "And with this water, the summer plants can grow-dane. When they produce nuts, let's share them-dane."

The Elder teared up in happiness. "King!"

"Aw, sharing is caring!" Ed gushed.

"See, I told you'd understand each other if you talked."

"Fie-kky, thank you very much!" An Ukky on her shoulder thanked.

"Fie-kky?" Eddy chuckled.

"I never imagined that you'd blend in with the monkeys-pumo."

"Sure. Remember, what's most important is to try to understand each other."

"What a good moral, Fine." Double-D smiled. "I'm proud of you."

"Come off it. It won't help if your big mouth changes you into a monkey again-pumo." Poomo said.

"Eh!? That's the last thing I want to happen!" Fine said as they all laughed.

"Then, we should go back to the Sunny Kingdom now-pumo."

"Donkey Kong, will you come with us?" Mario asked.

"I guess, but I think some of us will stay here to protect the Seed Kingdom."

"Uh?" Fine noticed Eclipse getting on his dinosaur and is ready to leave.

"Wait, Eclipse!" She ran to him and clung to his dinosaur, making it screech as it ran off.

"Fine!" Rein exclaimed.

"What the heck is she doing!?" Sonic asked in shock.

"Quickly, after her!" Tails said.

"Onward!" Rolf said as the Heroes chased after them.

"I hate cliffhangers!" Eddy yelled.


Knightmare Lord A/N:

I hate cliffhangers too, Eddy!


Bloodyguy A/N:

So do I!
