Chapter/Tale 1 End: Stuck With My Worst Enemy- Kailaine & Adeline- Episode 1

Author's Note Intro:

Hiiii! I'm back! So sorry about the long delay on chapter 7, I mean, I don't know what I was thinking, making that long of 55 pages long! Sorry I kept you all waiting. Anyway I'm gonna go ahead and explain a few things on the last chapter. This is the chapter to explain it all, so I guess I'll do that if you don't mind. I was tired and I wanted to post that chapter the second I was done with it, so that's why I didn't explain everything there. So, let me explain the major parts from last chapter.

First thing, the boss level chapters will have simplified dungeon part before the boss, okay? I used references from Super Mario RPG game, The Forest Maze Remix, and I do not own that, but it is a catchy song. There will be at least 96 abilities, 12 for each planet, alright? Also, there's a hidden acronym theme in this story, but you have to figure out the theme through the story, and there's a hidden letter somewhere in the story, so try to find it-hint. Aura Wood's boss fight was a mix of Kirby 64, Triple Deluxe, and Planet Robobot; he also had an eye over his forehead, meaning that you can actually beat the boss at once in two different ways: Go all out or have a strategy to stun them. The strategic part is something you have to figure out.

The second thing is about the cage full of stoned people and the little girl, plus the guy named Dark Soul. Starting with Dark Soul, the name is obvious that he's in with the Dark Matter Force, a new member that I made, so he's an OC owned by me. The girl with him was one of his underlings, Auralia, who you'll see later on. The cage full of people were the missing people from Aura Town that Kirby saw earlier on the posts. The little girl, however, is named Kazelaine or Kazela who mistook Kirby for her sister, and resembles Kaila in a way- and from the last chapter, it's true. She is in fact, Kaila's little sister, who disappeared and lost her memory, but gained some on the way. She does possess mysterious powers and in fact, Kaila didn't mention having a sister until the prologue and when she told Karly when they first met. That will be explained in this filler chapter; the rest of the unanswered questions will be answered here. (P.S. The Grandpa Dedede Dance was a reference to an old Geico commercial with an old guy dancing to the song, but the other lyrics were made by me, so that was it. Actually, do me a favor and forget that you ever read it.)

Anyway, I promise not to make a long, tedious chapter again; I'll just keep it up to a decent level and then end it unless it is necessary nonetheless. So, this is the chapter of Kaila's POV as she wrote in her diary that time. There will be some things revealed to her in surprise. I do not own Kirby-disclaimer. I apologize to anything that offends you or annoys you in anyway. Anyway, enjoy Chapter 8!

(Note- There will be anime references as well, so I do not own those properties of animes-disclaimer! Also, there will be something that you'll have to decide for the course of the story, so I'll get to that after you've finished reading. Oh, one more thing, you'll meet the prisoner and you'll never believe who it is and I'm not going to spoil it. That's all and have fun!)


Stuck With My Worst Enemy: Secrets Revealed

Kaila's POV

Day?

As the hours went by slower than a broken clock; I think its morning, I was sitting back in my crystal ball prison, taking an awakening after yesterday. I was really tired anyway trying to figure out how to escape this place, and I stared at the back of the pilots seats, watching the dark pilots watch their anime show called Gurren Lagann, not that I'm against that show, I like it as one of my favorites. It's also true that I also watch anime as well like, "Puella Magi Madoka Magica, Sailor Moon, Tokyo Mew Mew, and Sword Art Online", my personal favorite. Besides writing in my diary, I was hypothetically bored because I literally had nothing else to do except sleep, eat, look around the prison, read my own diary, stare at the pilots all day, watching their anime while they fly, recall on the previous events, and think about… Kirby.

So yeah, I was stuck in one place the whole time, but sometimes, they let me around the living ship once in a while to use the bathroom. With security, and thank god they weren't peeking at me the whole time, because otherwise, I'd have beaten them by now, but I don't think it's safe to cause a brawl inside a living thing. How it works is basically whenever I need to take a bath or use the bathroom, they would disperse the force field on the ball down, after calling one of their crewmates to escort me to the bathroom. They would take me through the deck doors where I am held. I'd always tried to make a run for it, but it failed badly and they had to knock me out since I kicked their arses. At least the mates were females.

The whole ship inside was like a maze at first, but it was like that since I am going in one place after all and that's it. The place actually looks realistic to an invader's spaceship, with the hallways and areas and etc. The bathroom location (I'm starting to question the use of a bathroom, but it makes sense now that they've become humans too.) was just down the hall, and left, then at a right turn, and just continue on and you'll see the restrooms for the crewmates, Men and Women. (Wait, there's females in the Dark Matter Force?!) But as for special prisoners like me, and in my case, "The Royal Target," it was just when you leave the deck, you go straight down the hall, between the cafeteria (Ok, now I'm officially creeped out, guys, so anything you find weird is really weird.), and down the elevator by one floor trip, and there's the restrooms for special prisoners.

I find this décor and layout of the mothership very suspicious, and don't get me wrong here guys, but don't you think it's weird that a negative being could become a half-sentient ship with emotions? That's highly odd there, and I arrived at that question when I saw the inside at first abduction too weird; it looked like the inside of a galactic mothership, alright, with the members acting like crewmates, and there sector areas that are highly restricted due to whatever. The ship doesn't feel like a ship of dark mass, it feels… like a real robotic mothership.

I'd always end up in my own prison cell for the most part. I'd always end up thinking about the earlier events from before this started even. First thing I remember is the conversation between me and Karly that night. I remember it like it was yesterday- oh, who am I kidding? It was 5 days ago! Screw it, I do remember what we were talking about that day: Our interests, our lifestyle, and our family…


Flashback: The Day before My Kidnap- A Night with Karly

It was a special day indeed, as the night on Dreamland glimmered with sparkling diamond stars and the crescent was a full moon, a Moonstruck Blossom of crystals, as the moon shone on the castle with its white, platinum light rays while I was conversely talking to Kirby's sister, Karly. She was sweet and innocent just like her legendary brother. She had only a red bow on her right side of her head, and that was it for her. We were docked on the castle's balcony patio while the rest of the boys were with the Commander. The 2 of us sat on a fancy round table gussied up fancily, hitting it off like that, never believing that I'm friends with a Starlet Warrior, the sister of the Star Warrior. Karly was telling me one of her tales about her and Kirby's misadventures. I find it pretty entertaining. I sat on my chair with my right leg over my left as I listened to Karly's story.

"… So then, Kirby inhaled Walky, and unexpectedly, he got headphones and a microphone, becoming Mike Kirby. You couldn't believe what happened next: He started singing, but when he did, the sound was terrible! It was so loud and scratchy like he's scraping a giant chalkboard with cat claws. His singing was so bad that he ended up being teleported directly to NME's headquarters that had an ambush of monsters waiting for him. Kirby kept singing and it was so annoying that caused the monsters to explode. When he came back, his singing was louder than usual, and next thing we all knew, it cracked the entire castle and caused it to collapse, destroying the castle. The moral here is: Never let Kirby near a microphone again. Ever." Karly finished. I couldn't help but laugh to that tale she just told me.

"That is quite entertaining, Karly," I replied. "I didn't know Kirby had it in him!"

"Yep, that's what it's like to have a person who has a terrible singing for a friend/brother or sister maybe. If we had parents, Kirby would get grounded right away for terrible singing."

"Too bad my family's not here," I suddenly find myself say, "They would've been glad to meet you guys."

"Oh yeah! I forgot to ask you this: If you do have a family, then how come they are not here with you?" She asked, but then stops. "Oh, I'm sorry if that's too personal for you-"

"No, no," I stopped her. "It's okay, Karly. You said you weren't awakened, then you did at the start of your life with no one but Kirby. I think it's okay to tell you about my family." I said, as Karly hesitates for a minute, then she nods. I sighed before I started.

"First of all, I'm the heir to the throne when I become Queen and the new ruler when I'm 20 years old. My dad, King Galactix, meaning the galaxy, he was a kind king along with my mom, Queen Starilia, plus her longer actual name is Starlaine, or she just prefers to be called Star and her name means the power of the stars, and they were about somewhere in their 20's or 30's, I can't remember. Then, mother was pregnant at that time, and about the usual nine months later, I was born. And they gave me the name, "Kailaine," which makes sense since because of my mother's name. Anyway, I possess special powers that I really didn't know about since then and I unlocked only half of my current power. Around the time when I was able to understand things and speak only a child could, mom and dad always told me stories about the Galaxy War, and well, I guess you could say that I look up to the Galaxy Warriors, if you put it that way."

"What do you mean, Kaila?" Karly asked me. I took a sip from my cup full of wine and place it down before answering.

"Dad always told me about this dark fiend named Nightmare, and I'm sure you know him, who makes creatures known as Demon Beasts, sent only to destroy and kill. But one monster sooner rebelled against him, causing havoc and making the monsters one by one rebel alongside with him; Nightmare then proceeded to create another clone or a female version of the previous one, but that ended up being another mistake for that one has rebelled as well; that second monster possessed the same will as the first one, a male. That's what created the Galaxy Warriors made of two sides, The Star Warriors and the Starlet Warriors, male and females. Some of the members weren't monsters; they were people that were born from Kira Haven, those who have been born 200 years early. Apparently, the two rebel leaders were placed into hyper sleep the second after the Galaxy Warriors were born, not after having two kids born 200 years early and placing them in hypersleep for 200 years and separated them in hopes that Nightmare wouldn't find them; he feared that those kids would be his end, for the earlier rebels he created them with a special kind of power. After 200 years have passed, their hearts were born in the form of little star children named Kira Star Kids who makes up Kira Haven's population that is not seen by anyone else. Then, that's when those two warriors were awakened and joined the Galaxy Warriors, becoming a legend. Those kids were… you two." I stated. "Hearing those tales always excited me a lot when I was little then."

Karly seemed surprised from my explanation. "… I see. I really don't remember my own life when I was born 200 years early, so we're basically 200 years old or something like that. The only thing I remember was when I woke up for the first time… I woke up from a star capsule pod, only seeing a few female warriors…"

"You still want me to go on?" I asked. Karly nodded without any hesitation. "Ok, then. After the war, you two became a legend, well, mostly Kirby. Neither Mom nor Dad told me your names, but they referred to you as 'The Legendary Star Warriors.' That was the tale that they told me, even though they never showed me what you looked like; they always told me this story whenever I wanted to hear it. I may have been late on knowing since none of my parents told me whatsoever, but I always dreamed of meeting the two warriors someday, and it came true. After a few years later, that's when my little sister was born."

"You have a little sister?" Karly asked me at hearing that.

"Yes, it's true that I have a little sister, Karly. She's a little annoying, especially when she calls me sissy when she could speak at birth. She also has the power to shapeshift into literally anything, and the form she picked the most was a cat. She also has an adorable mini rabbit as her pet that is white she keeps her alongside with her all the time. It was nice to have her around the castle and it was happy, until one day… she disappeared. When we were assaulted, she was only an infant at 2 years old when I single-handedly destroyed the Dark Matter Forces at 8 years of age. After 2 more years, at age 4, that's when she disappeared and it was also the day that I lost both my parents after my sister disappeared and that's when Dark Matter went for Round 2, this time their leader, who we all know, Zero, he had multiple tricks up his sleeve. One of them was the most brutal thing that ever happened in my life: he forced me to watch as he…." I hesitated to say that last part to Karly.

Karly seems to know what I was talking about with an expression that can't believe what happens. I still continued on, ignoring that part. "That's basically what happened. I couldn't believe it either the second it happened… I could never forgive Zero for what he's done to my family; he tore them apart. I really don't know what he did to my sister, but I… I know she's alive somewhere wherever Zero stranded her, so if coming here was one thing, maybe there's a chance I might find her, maybe… at this moment she would be 10 years old."

Karly notices my pain and then she says, "Kaila… would it help if we went to help you find your sister for you? Like, if maybe tomorrow something happens to you like a kidnap or the usual princess thing, we'll try to locate your lost sister while we go out to save you, probably."

"You would do that for me?" I asked, surprised.

"Of course I would," Karly smiled. "We're now friends, aren't we? And friends help each other with their problems. It makes sense that I ought to help you out now. Besides, if you were to ask Kirby to do this, he would just do it without any complaints whatsoever. I know him; he just don't think, just do it is the only thing he knows how to do."

I stared at for a while, thinking on her offer to find my little sister for me. I thought about it for a while, then I smiled. "I think that's a great idea, Karly! You would try to help someone who was in dire need of assistance to find their lost sister, and that's me! Thank you so much, Karly!"

Karly chuckled. "Heh. It's the least I can do for you, friend. We'll find your sister in no time, starting tomorrow, since it's getting late after all. I'll figure out something soon enough. Plus, Kirby wouldn't mind either as long as you don't." She rubbed her stubby hand over the area where the nose is supposed to be under.

"*Giggles* I'm glad to have someone like you help me," I replied, laughing along with Karly. The moon glimmered over us, making the scene rippled to the end.


End of Flashback: The Day before My Kidnap- A Night with Karly

My flashback scene ripples away, showing the true vision of crystal reality. The only thing I could see was the usual scene: the cockpit with the two pilots that are still watching Gurren Lagann. I guess it's been about how long (Depends on how long you took reading that earlier flashback scene) I was remembering it. Karly volunteered to help me find my lost sister if something were to happen to me, which is obvious that I am, now being one of the next lineup generation of Princess Peach; otherwise, Karly promised that if my sister was alive somewhere, she and Kirby will find her for sure. That was a promise that we've made as friends-no, best friends.

I was reminiscing these events when from the control deck, a giant screen appeared in front of the window panel that revealed the morning sun, which made the two pilots shriek in fear, not because they hate light (although you've seen them in the daylight), but it was because the sun was directly at them, shining like a burning star. It also made me cover my eyes and look away. The guys somewhat didn't shrink back in fear because of the sun, it was because of the anime they were watching.

"Ahh! The light! It burns- oh wait, it doesn't, since we were too busy watching anime and plus wearing these visor glasses due to DM Blade's original design, we're not easily blinded!" The co-pilot joked.

"Oh, what does Master have to say now?" The pilot groaned. "We were at the good part of Gurren Lagann, the part where Simon makes the speech and he does that epic OP move! Dang it all!" He was forced to pause the anime, and listen to the message of their master. I looked up to the screen, only showing the back of their master's white and long, spiky hair. I had this earlier hunch, one about a white human similar to the one I saw now.

"This is DM Pilots Stark and Zane, sir!" They replied.

"Heh. Morning to you two, and to everyone onboard here in the DM ClockStar Ship. This is your master speaking. I have a few announcements and updates to make, so I need you all to listen closely, but first: DM Pilots Stark and Zane, is our special guest (soon-to-be key to take over the world) is all nice and comfortable in the cockpit?" He asked.

The two pilots stepped out of the range of his view, allowing him to take a look on me. Somehow, he notices me without looking. I blushed furiously because I was NOT nice and comfortable- I'm tired, homesick, hurt, uncomfortable, and I feel sick to my stomach just being here in a crystal ball prison! If I ever have the chance, I'll escape the chance I have and would not spend a minute gazing at this rotten hole of dark hell!

"She's present, Master," Stark replied.

"Excellent." He chuckled ominously. "Now that we know the princess isn't going anywhere, let's begin, shall we? First, have you ever heard about what happened at Aura Star? We've been told by Dark Soul that a little someone stopped them and defeated Aura Woods. The members there had to retreat after that, and I think the princess knows who exactly it was that took them down, and that goes for all of you, for as you should know that person, and his name is KIRBY." His voice grew darker at that name.

Everyone gasped in disgust and mumbles to each other. I could hear the voices of worry across from behind the doors. Even the pilots Zane and Stark was shocked.

"Kirby?!" Zane exclaims. "Oh, I guess we were wrong to doubt that boy's skills, even as a human. But I don't really get how he broke out of that poison coma beforehand… unless someone cured him! Yeah, I'll bet on that, eh? He seemed to pack a lot of potential power inside him more as human now that he did as his original form. Now what?!"

I beamed at this, smiling that Kirby is coming after me. "Ah, I knew Kirby would come for me!"

"Ugh, great," Stark moaned. "I told you we should've gone back and make sure he and his friends are 100% dead! Maybe the Dark Missile Cannon wasn't enough to take him down. And now the princess is pleased with this, letting us know as a sign that we screwed up."

"That is correct, Stark," The white familiar human agreed. "But it doesn't mean that it's going to be that way. I'll get to that later. My other announcement is that in compliance to that same situation, we have reports that one of our prisoners have been freed by Kirby along with the Gem Soul Spirit Galeroy and the Gem Star Emerald, which Emerald was captured under our binding. Plus, the captive citizens were freed from their stone prisons by Kirby as well. But we got what we wanted from them at least, I guess. We've also have a new prisoner as well, and after you all complete your objectives on each planet, that info will be revealed soon enough."

I heard mumbling among the crowd of Dark Matter crewmates, discussing this among others. So then, they turned to see what else their master has to say next.

"So Kirby has freed the people that were captured, leaving one to take on the go with us, technically. Ah, I see," Zane replied.

"Anyway, the planets we're invading has at least 3-5 things in average you need to do or get, and one of them involves unleashing some of our reinforcements and taking over the main area of monsters. We have a lot on our to-do list, and it should've been done about in a few days or so. Care to explain what happened, soldiers?" He said sternly.

Stark was the one to reply for everyone. "Well, master. It is true that we should've done that a long time ago, but it went off board and it would've been done successfully if it wasn't for Kirby, who ended up shooting down the ship after he was pulled to Aura Star by the planet's gravity, and he did it up his sleeve unexpectedly."

"… I see. So Kirby pulled off a surprise for us at the last minute; that'll be a problem. But we can worry about that later; when he and his band of friends come, I'll deal with them. You all remember, and that is my final say to this, make sure you watch for the projects in the containment room and make sure they recharge. Our first test subject's power wore off when she was defeated during the brawl of Aura Woods. That is all, and I expect the best out of all of you as you bring home our trump card: Princess Kailaine of Crystal Star. And she will be the key to our success, men and women. But first, you know what to do. Until then, peace out. Heh." He said, slightly turning his head towards us on the side, not showing his own face, but the only thing that showed was a red eye. The video ended, thus making everyone return to their regular schedule.

"Boy, wasn't that something, Zane?" Stark asked.

"You said it, pal. But the only thing I haven't thought about is about his second saying," Zane questioned. "What was it about having a new prisoner and losing one to Kirby that was the big deal anyway?"

"You see, the group there were ordered to capture a limited number of people and take something that they rely on all the time. The point of this was actually interrogate each captured citizen if they know where the person of their target's location is. If they refuse or do not know at all, they get turned to stone, simple as that until one person cracks and confesses. Still gets turned to stone even if they crack up. Tragic. When they locate that person, they don't turn that person to stone, but they put them in a prison full of them. They keep them there until their mission is done, and in that case on Aura Star, their mission was already done because the last thing on their list was to wait for the right person to try to stop them, specifically, KIRBY."

"It kinda makes sense, I guess. Their mission was done when Kirby stopped them. Frankly, I don't see the point of that. So, who was the specific prisoner on Aura Star?"

"Hold on, let me take this first," Stark intercepted as he received a call from one of the crewmates, and after a few minutes, he pulled out a silver disk, pressed button that pops up a place for the disk, and places it inside, where the disk was taken inside. "Alright, I'm sending it to ya. Check your disk case, ok?"

"Anyway, before I can tell you, I need to show you this," Stark snapped his fingers, showing another screen; he pulled out another disk drive that had the title, "Data Base- Prisoners."

"Eh, what's that, Stark?" asked Zane. "Another flash drive?"

"No, this is the footage from that long, boring presentation, but this is only the clip footage from it earlier that had the whole scene about the characters we'll encounter on this mission or probably target or see, maybe. If you wanna know who that prisoner was, it's all in here. This was the longest out of all, but we're gonna skip to the part you were asking about." He inserted the drive into the slot, and typed something that activated the contents.

"Um, Stark? What's with the whole typing thing and that other flash drive- oh, wait, never mind." Zane started to question Stark's doing, but was interrupted when the video appeared onscreen. It showed a series of images, portraying characters and people of their choosing and as their mini targets. Somehow, I feel a… little dizzy. All of the people I see are pounding on my head like my head's absorbing a little something. Then, after my dizziness has ended, I could see them all in my memory.


You have gained the images of the targeted people in your memory! Added to your Future Vision Data Banks!


"Yeah, this is great and all, but can we get to the person that was gonna answer my question?" Zane huffed.

"Ugh. Fine. Now here, I've got another disk that Macy sent me a little while ago. You know she's at Aura Star, right? She has captured the footage of the incident there and gave it to me when she returned to the ship, and boy, is she on fire, if you know I mean!" I cringed in disgust at that. And now, it's personal. Things have just gotten weirder, guys.

"Boy, please. SHUT UP and show me that video!" Zane yelled. "You can stare at Macy later, or… whatever it is that you do to watch her like a stalker-"

"I'm not a stalker, Zane! Fine, here you go." Stark groaned as he did the same thing he did and popped up the scene from B.K.A (Before Kirby Attacked), this time, starting with the part where it showed a cage full of people-turned to stone. I notice that there was one person who wasn't stoned, sitting there and crying… no, she's singing a melody of sorrow. The aurora of a beautiful song started to make me spurt tears from my eyes and wailing.

"Hey, Stark," Zane motions over to him and points at me. "What's gotten into her? She's spurting out tears from her eyes."

"I think it's the song that girl's singing. You know that since women are dramatic, no offense, due to this they can be easily susceptible to break down in tears from things like this. Man, I didn't know that a little girl could sing such a song that sad… and it's weird as well."

"What do you mean, Stark?"

"Take a look at the girl who's singing and then look at Kaila," Stark says.

I clogged the drain that leaks tears after hearing what they said about me. The video zoomed in on the girl that was singing. She looks an awful lot like me, but smaller and she has ruby eyes; in all, she looks like she has stolen my beautiful looks packed in a little kid. There were key similarities between me and that girl. We have the same hair bang, we both have the same idea of color streaks but hers are lavender purple while mines are blossom pink, our shoes have the same prism clear material, and we have a star shaped necklace both the same. No, that can't be. I remember Mom giving me that same necklace that she had and it resembled the Legendary Star Warrior's Warpstar; Mom also gave my little sister the same necklace collar too, and I could see the smile on her 4 year old face as she received the same gift as well. To see if I'm just hallucinating, I reach for my necklace and removed it from my neck. I opened it up, revealing a photo that popped up to an actual size of a photo which had both me and my little sister; in the photo, I was patting my sister on the head and stared at the camera smiling while she's waving her left hand in the air. The photo on the screen zooms in closer, making me remember…

"Could it be?" I asked in disbelief. "No, it can't be… no, it is her, my missing little sister, Kazela! Oh, it is her after all these years! But, I don't really believe it…" I was in tears again, seeing the image of my lost sister again. All of those chain of memories that shattered from the last time I ever saw her again re-chained itself again; my eyes believe it, but my heart doesn't so.

"Are you saying that that girl we were supposed to capture is instead Princess Kailaine's lost sister?!" Zane's jaw dropped to the ground, and as a result, Stark nodded in response.

"No way! Now the princess is in tears again; wait a sec- how come no one knew that she was missing anyway?"

"Beats me. But back to the point. This is the girl that the force was supposed to take along with Princess Kailaine and that girl from Popstar, but since Kirby, Galeroy and Emerald (who was taken and captured) came and destroyed their mission, you won't believe what happens in this scene. It's hilarious! To us! Get a load of this!" Stark laughed as he forwards the scene further to the part where they both came into contact for the first time. For some reason, the video graphics and design looks straight up from an anime.

I watched as I heard that girl vocalize a song that flowed from her heart, filled with nothing but sorrow. Then, I heard Kirby's voice as he approached my little sister which he did not know at first, and I saw the second Kazela jumped into Kirby as she screamed, "Sister!" That was the part where Stark and Zane was dropping on the floor and hollering in laughter, tears running with every breath of laughter. I sweatdropped to the sight of them in hysterics. They stopped after a while before they started up again. The video advances even more from the house that they were resting in as it turns to the sight of the next day (now) as I watched them leave Aura Star on their Warpstar.

"Wow. That was hilarious!" Zane chuckled. "Anyway, it seems that Kazelaine, was it, is tagging along with Kirby now for the whole ride. And their next course is… Deserlava Star. Ha! They're about a planet off from getting to us!"

Stark sweatdropped. "Baka. That's where we are right now," Zane sweatdropped.

"So, what spot did we exactly park anyway?"

"Near the volcano in sight of no one! Remember, we were supposed to check on the troops and collect "materials" from the squad that collected it and take a vessel there. Then, we put the vessel along with the other 2 we captured and head to the next planet, and that next planet is Aquarius Star. Got it?" Stark reminded.

"Ok. So quick question about the planets we are going to. I know that Aura Star has the usual World 1 standards nature becoming your greatest enemy because of us containing birds, grass monsters, talking, living trees and etc., and this planet is a fusion of 2 worlds, Deserts and Volcanoes with Pyramids and jungles and lava, so what are we supposed to expect on the next planet and over?" Zane asked.

Stark sighed. "Man, you slay me sometimes. Alright, pay attention, you dolt:"

Aura Star: It's the typical first level standards, duh. It contains usually beginning basics due to its friendly nature with crops, plants and the miracle of life with plants and animals. But in this universe, there are monsters fit for this setting and the plants and trees comes to life. That's what Aura Star is.

Deserlava Star: It's the second world standard, only this time it is a fusion of 2 worlds; the second world standard are mostly Deserts or maybe Volcano areas sometimes. The Desert comes first with Pyramids and oasis and a sea of sand filled with scorpions, mummies, monster worms, ancient ruins and etc., while Volcano areas comes with jungles, rocky areas, and typically, volcanoes that are usually on islands and these areas are filled with ancient tribes, fire monsters, rock golems, spirits, and of course, dragons. That's Deserlava Star for ya.

Aquarius Star: It's the third world standard, containing marine life. You will most likely expect beaches, sea caves, and the great Seven Seas and etc. The best way to keep your cool and have fun while you relax. Unfortunately, Kirby won't be here to do that, yet. This world comes with many areas like the seashore sands (the beach), subterranean sea caves, the great ocean itself, islands, underwater ruins, and a lost city of legends. Of course, this place will have lobster monsters, sea serpents, sharks, all you can think of in sea life, and there's the sea world's best known kinds of people: Treasure Hunters, Pirates, Water Demons, and the number one myth of the seas: those mutant fish creatures named Miaraids or- bah! I don't know what they are or what they look like anyway. That's what Aquarius Star is.

Skylight Star: It's the fourth world standard, replacing snow worlds with the sky. Well, have you ever heard of this game called 'Solatorobo?' Think of that planet as that kind of world, only a sky world with floating castles and cities and high places. They will make you think there's no bottom there when there actually is one. These places will have cities, royal castles, the air force and they all have the power of the sun while having the power of light and time itself. Plus, there's a haven. These places will have flying enemies, angels, demons & cupids, time manipulators, flying battleships, and heavy robot forces, along with that mechanical angels known as Angeloids and hybrid monsters known as Beast Knights. That's the scene of Skylight Star.

Lunadark Star: It's the fifth world standard, sometimes with shadowy scenes and all of the horror you can find. That place is the breeding ground for the most known horrors in history; they're pretty popular nowadays. Or maybe it's more accurate to say that it's basically our version of Tokyo or Japan. This planet has shrines, cherry blossom trails, and even an alternate plane of existence known as the Void Realm. This world will be packed with basically all of the monsters related to this planet, youkai, spirits, and monsters known as Monovoids. But it's mostly the origins of unknown, calm and frustrated painters where their drawings comes to life physically depending on what they drew or it becomes witches and sorceresses. They also have a giant capital that houses those monsters and it's a maze too; also, people are most likely to get cursed there. That's Lunadark Star.

Techno Star: It's the sixth world standard, having to do with technology. Techno Star is just another name for the actual name. I'm not sure what it was, but I remember it has the word, 'Robo' in it. This is the futuristic planet where it contains the places of laboratories, sectors, cyber dimensions, and the two main ones, Factories and Companies. The residents who lives there are humans, but some are Cyborgs or AI Robots or whatever and some looks familiar to someone everyone has seen in the last adventure. They made robots through Project X and are contained in capsules. That planet will come with digital viruses, negative killer cyborgs, API Guards, Giant Robobots, and unleashed Project X experiments on the loose plus hologram defense forces. That's the concept of Factory Star.

Blizzard Star: It's the seventh world standard, and the last one before our actual destination, with this one being the look alike of Planet Earth, covered in sheets of snow. Think of it as wintertime everyday there. Most of the months are snowy, and the 4 months are normal; it's the opposite there. There are frozen tundras, crystal caves, ice oceans, snow slopes, and ice castles. There are abdominal snowmen, yetis, Ice dragons, and Snow Queens or whatever. I even heard there's a buried Clockwork Star buried somewhere on that planet. Also, it's the home of bands of thieves that goes around and steals everything and a huge factory rumored to be the cause of an incident that made the planet at one point barren wasteland of snow. That's the detail behind Blizzard Star.

"That's the secrets behind each planet. Anything else you wanna ask?" Stark sighed.

"No. But, aren't we supposed to do something like take the other prisoner and stick her in there with the princess?" Zane reminded him. Stark's face grew with realization.

"Oh crap!" He yelled. "We forgot to do that earlier! Come on, let's go Zane!"

"I'm right behind you!" Zane shouted.

With this, they stood up from their chairs and left through the doors, after making sure that I didn't escape or anything. Zane, before he left, pressed a button on the controls, and he asked for a burrito pronto, then left.

I sighed with relief. "I thought they'd never leave! I wonder how Kirby and the others are doing now."

"… Great. I got nobody around me. It did took Kailo and Kirie long enough to reach Kirby. Wonder what's holding them up."

My answer to that question was answered when a flash of bright light appeared, revealing Kailo and Kirie to my surprise when the light ceased. "Just in time, as well." I thought.

"Hiya, Princess Kailaine!" Kirie greeted. I smiled.

"Oh! You came just in time," I smiled. "I was starting to get bored anyway, trying to figure out how to escape from here and finding out some secret information about Dark Matter even more, but that proved to be a failure. So, how's Kirby?"

"Kirby's fine. He saved Emerald from Aura Woods, and now they're on their way to here!" Kailo replied.

I was glad to hear about Kirby, but I recall from the scene where I see my little sister in those images. I wonder… do they know about her now? I hesitated to ask.

"Hey Kailo… Kirie…" Slowly I asked. "Do you know anything about my sister?"

The two looked at each other before answering. "Actually, we do. She is, in fact, alive right now."

My eyes brim with tears once again. "So, it is true then. My lost little sister is still alive after all these years! I can't believe it! What happened?"

"Your sister said that she had lost her memories that time, and she was held within Dark Forest for a number of months and was there before and after the assault. Then, after a while, Kirby freed her, and she called him "you" in surprise. And now she's tagging along with Kirby on the way to save you, or unless you break out, of course."

"Karly was right: they would eventually find her sooner or later or by unexpected events; I wasn't expecting that immediately at all," I recalled. "She did keep her promise after all. Wait a sec… did you say that she lost her memories?"

The two of them nodded. I looked at them in disbelief worry. "You mean, she doesn't remember anything about me or mom or dad?"

"No, she does remember you and your parents. In fact, she didn't remember you until she saw you and her in a photo together earlier. Kirby said that maybe she probably knows what the Dark Matter force are really up to and they can do it by triggering her memories. It's their only chance to figure out their true plans unless you do of course, but Kirby also stated that maybe she can remember how she lost her memories and who or what was behind it all and maybe why they really want you to be their corrupted core," Kirie explained.

"You really think my little sister's memories could be the answer to everything?" I asked.

Their response was a simple shrug. "We don't know for sure, but there's only one way to find out anyway. We find the triggers to each part of her memories and see what she remembers so far. That's all Kirby and his friends can do at this point. But, maybe you can find out something even more revealing, or you can choose to escape." Kailo reasoned.

Those options made me wonder: What should I do at this point? There are 2 options for me in order to not being a helpless damsel in distress: 1) I could stay a little while longer and try to locate their database and find some hidden secrets about the Dark Matter Force. Or 2) I could find a way to escape from my prison ball and find a safe route that'll lead me straight to Kirby and the others without the members noticing my escape.

"… I really don't know what to do at this point now. I'll think about it," I replied. I then heard the footsteps and voices again of Zane and Stark, this time with a muffled voice.

"Ah!" I squealed. "You've gotta hide now! But there's no time to teleport, they're at the door already! What are you going to do now?!"

"That's easy! But you're not gonna like it, so brace yourself!" Kirie said in a haste as they both turned into light balls and flew straight into my chest, making me hurl almost, and just in time when Stark and Zane went in with a crystal with something inside it as they opened my prison ball and placed the crystal inside next to me. The crystal shattered when it entered inside. It had a masked figure in it, struggling for some air and was tied up.

"Well, that should be all we had to do, if I'm not mistaken." Stark huffed. "Carrying that prisoner from the first assaulted planet (which I'd say it was a two-for-one deal) was way harder than carrying those logs of shattered crystals."

"Hey!" Zane yelled over the intercom. "I ordered a burrito a few minutes ago! Why isn't my burrito here, Ray?! You had one job, man! ONE JOB!"

The voice over the intercom answered. "Sorry, but we are experiencing technical difficulties with the machine."

"What? That's BS there!" Zane yelled in a fury fit of frustration. "I want my burrito, and I want it now, right after we help Macy with the energy containment crystals and load them in the thing."

"Come on, Zane," Stark sighed and slapped his forehead. "Let's just go- what the heck are you doing?"

Apparently, Zane was mad about his delayed burrito, and he was slamming the control panel with his fist repeatedly and rhythmically. We all sweatdropped more than once as if we were watching an idiot demand for his burrito. It's just a burrito, boy. You're acting like an idiot. But now since when did they start having fits about something as stupid as burritos? I find that suspicious… and weird.

"WHERE'S MY BURRITO?! WHERE'S MY BURRITO?! WHERE'S MY BURRITO?! I DIDN'T EAT ANYTHING PAST 8:30 AND I'M HUNGRY! GIMME THAT STINKING BURRITO, DAMN IT! I WANT MY BURRITO, ALSO WITH A SIDE OF OMELETS AND SCRAMBLED EGGS AND ORANGE SODA! BUT I WON'T TAKE THEM ALL UNLESS YOU GIVE ME MY BURRITO, AND I'LL SAY THIS ALL DAY IF I HAVE TO! SO…. WHERE'S MY BURRITO?! WHERE'S MY BURRITO?! WHERE'S MY BURRITO?!"

"Hey Zane," Stark calmly said, then boomed. "SHUT UP! WE'VE GOT A JOB TO DO! YOU CAN GET YOUR STINKING BURRITO LATER!"

Zane just stared at him crossed-eyed. "Can I at least have my burrito first? I'm hungry."

At this, Stark got an angry-vein on his head, signaling that he's pissed off. Then, unexpectedly, a burrito on a plate just teleported on cue and right in Zane's hands. He smiled in delight when he saw his egg-roll burrito right there, and he was drooling. Stark and I both looked at each other and sweatdropped.

"Here's your damn burrito, Zane. God, if you're there, so do help me learn to refrain myself from strangling that idiot." The voice murmured. He sounded like he was ready to kill him already.

"Thanks for giving me my burrito, Kay. Next time you have difficulties with the machine, trying banging it hard, ok?" Zane replied. He turned off the intercom and stared at his burrito in delight again.

"Finally, my burrito is here, and just on cue too." His mouth watered as he picked up the burrito and said, "Come to papa!"

Unfortunately, it wasn't safe. From Stark as he just slapped the burrito out of his hands, into the air, and somehow it exploded and slopped on the floor like garbage or like something had burst out of a bag. Zane exclaimed and yelled as he watched his precious burrito die.

"My… my burrito! My burrito! WHY?!" He sobbed. Stark sweatdropped and grabbed Zane and threw him through the doors. "Why did you murder my burrito?! Now I'll have to ask for another one! Kay! I need another burrito and get it right this time: I want it at my station before I get back-"

"Get in there and help her out!" He turns to me next after that, still sweatdropping. "Sorry you had to see that drama from that idiot, Princess. Oh yeah, unmask that prisoner for us, if you will, because as you can see, we're about to help someone out, so we'll be back in a little bit, or how long it takes us if idiot keeps mourning for his stupid burrito. The reason why she's tied up is because that's how they captured her. Again, sorry you had to deal with that."

At this, you can imagine Zane acting foolish and idiotically for his burrito. Stark left with those words and shut the doors behind him. Kailo and Kirie popped out from inside me after they were gone. I felt uneasy there.

"Looks like they're gone, Kailaine," Kirie sweatdropped. "And not in the way we saw coming."

I sighed in relief. "Yeah, that's for sure."

Kailo then motioned over to the masked figure which Stark had instructed me to release. "Hey Kaila," Kailo asks, "Isn't that the masked prisoner that they've asked you to release?"

"Oh, I suppose I should do that now," I said as I went over and took a glance at the prisoner. I wasn't sure who it was, but from what Stark said, I think we can assume that the prisoner is a girl. I untied the ropes around the girl, which released her arms, then I took out the blindfold mask clinging to her face like a parasitic tick. "There. That should do it," I said to her. "Hey, are you alright?"

The girl exhaled out of relief and almost collapsed, but luckily I caught her in time. The girl had a green shirt with black double sleeves and a white flat down collar and a gold button that was loose, showing a bit of her cleavage, a black/grey skirt with black shorts with high black socks and boots that were brown and looked like something people would wear in the wild west. She has metallic long black hair, but not much isn't shown because of her red beret on her head. Her eyes are black and cosmic and overall, she looks like a… I forgot.

She coughs roughly and slowly leans up and against the ball, gazing into my sapphire eyes. I noticed a deep cut on her left arm, and she winced while holding her arm; I saw blood leak slowly down her arm where it hacked through her sleeve.

"You don't look so good," I stated. "You've got a cut on your arm. Let me have a look at it." I volunteered.

At first, she hesitates. But her arm pain intensifies even more and she let out a short yelp. She didn't want to suffer from an arm cut, so she reluctantly accepts. Reaching into my pocket, I pulled out a strip of a bandage cloth I had with me and signals the girl to extend her cut arm. I gently wrap the cloth around her wounded area and tie it altogether. Then, I summoned my hand to glow with green aura, as a healing spell. Placing my hand on the bandaged cut, the green aura glows around her arm, erasing the spilt blood from her unscathed skin.

"That should do the trick," I smiled. "Are you feeling better now?"

She looks at me and smiles. She responds. "Yes, I am. Thank you." She then looks up to the two Star Kids in wonder what they are. The two of them smiled back at her, only to be interrupted by sounds of Stark and a troubled Zane heading this way.

"Well, we should get going now, Princess," Kailo announced. "We'll see you later."

"You've gotta make your choice, okay?" Kirie added as well. "We'll tell them you're fine. And it looks like it's time for us to go."

"Ok then, take care of yourselves!" I smiled and waved.

"See ya, Princess!" They said in unison as they did the peace sign and disappeared in an immersing bind of bright light and teleported. The girl seemed surprised at this, and just in time when Stark came in with having to drag Zane, who was blubbering like a baby to whatever happened at his errand. The girl, me, and Stark sweatdropped at the same time. Then, I noticed a burrito on the control deck earlier while they were gone. I guess we haven't noticed it as well either.

"Finally, we're back," Stark sighed, then he noticed the both of us sitting there. "Oh, the prisoner is unmasked. Thanks for that, your highness. I'd would've done it myself if Zane over here wasn't complaining about his burrito and nearly ruined the lunch dome."

"Hey! It's not my fault that you've lost the girl of your dreams!" Zane countered. "YOU were the one who called her a Triple Stank Ho in front of everybody, and boy, that really left a mark on your face. Literally. Now I need something to take my mind off of- hey, my burrito!"

Zane ran to the burrito and did the whole item get thing. "You got the Burrito!"

"Finally, I got my burrito! Get in my belly!" Zane said as he gobbled through the burrito, reducing it to crumbs in a mere 5 seconds. We all sweatdropped heavily in disgust, trying to ignore the scene there. Stark sighed as he returned to his seat as well as Zane did who made a loud enough burp that could've been heard throughout the galaxy entirely. The girl and I looked back at each other.

"Well, that was really stupid, wasn't it?" The girl asked, sweatdropping.

"You can say that again," I replied, sweatdropping. "It was torture being held here for 6 days now."

"What happened to you?" The girl asked. "And why did they call you, 'Princess?'"

"I am a Princess, Princess Kailaine Cosmica Starlina of Crystal Star. But you can just call me Kaila, it is better that way. If you want to know why I'm here, they were after me because of what they want to do with me. I was visiting Popstar that fateful day, and unexpectedly, Dark Matter appears out of nowhere and attacked the planet, while they also captured me in the process. Now, I've been trying to find a way out of here before they take me to my home planet, which is taken over by Dark Matter."

"Well, why would they take me along for the ride too if they only wanted you?" The girl asked. "That doesn't make sense when I heard them saying that they're taking someone from each planet."

"I honestly don't know the real reason behind this rumor, or about them." I said, pointing to Stark and Zane, who Stark was annoyed by Zane when he kept singing an annoying song about chicken wings. I could hear Stark cursing to himself even more than he did before.

"Yeah, that's weird," She said as she was writing or drawing in her sketchbook. "Maybe I have something on them."

I noticed this and asks, "What are you drawing?"

She looks up at my question. "Actually, I'm just flipping through the pages here. I've drawn some artwork about Dark Matter before. Here, take a look."

She shows me the drawings that she drew overtime, and they were pretty impressive. She had a lot about Dark Matter. There's one picture that really got my attention. It was one drawing about Kirby and a fairy girl and then there's Zero-Two in the background. He was in his original form, with his eye bleeding tears of blood and sorrow, with no hint of mercy in it. You could see Kirby with the Crystal Gun and the fairy girl carrying him. Kirby was covered in scars and Zero's blood but still had that valiant look on his face.

She then flipped to another one where Kirby first encountered Zero along with a blob that resembled a part of Dark Matter but instead it was attacking Zero instead. Back then, Zero was just a white ball with a red eyeball. It showed Kirby wielding one of Popstar's Ancient artifacts, the Love-Love Stick as a weapon to fire at Zero. His eye spurted out tears of blood as he attacks by cutting parts of his body. Kirby was covered in spots of blood that flew from Zero, but he was ready to end him once and for all.

The girl flipped through another one where he first fought Dark Matter. The drawing was split into two parts. One where Kirby was fighting Dark Matter Blade with the Rainbow Sword in his hands and the two blades clashed as they fought. The other one was when he fought the true form of Dark Matter. He looked like he was about to collapse but still kept pushing through. I was really surprised after seeing those drawings.

"You… drew all of this?" I asked. The girl nodded. "Yep, I drew all of that, since my favorite hobby is drawing. In fact, I was on Popstar as well too." She said as she flipped through the pages of drawings, containing scenes of the fights with previous Dark Matter Members. At one point, I spotted a picture of something pink. I asked the girl to go back on that picture again. That drawing had two very familiar characters that I've definitely seen before. I see two kids, a boy and a girl side by side together. The girl was doing the peace sign and had an energetic smile on her face, while the boy had his hands stuffed in his jacket pockets and looked at the girl with a face that said, "Really? Stop that!"

"*Gasps*" I gasped. Suddenly, my mind reminds me of those two kids. I remember back at Castle Dedede, Kirby and Karly were doing those two expressions when I first saw them as human. Does that mean…?

"You know those two?" I asked. She nodded in response. "I knew Kirby and Karly from the start. I was possessed by Dark Matter twice, and Kirby saved me from them. I joined him as we went out to help out a fairy girl named Ribbon, who had her home planet invaded by Dark Matter and collect all the Crystal Shards, while at the end to defeat Zero-Two. It's been a long time since I've saw him, but I know him from those moments together."

"Wait a sec," I asked. "What's your name anyway?"

She looks at me and smiles. "My name… is Adeline."

"Adeline?" I repeated. "That's a nice name."

"Why, thank you, Princess," She replied. I smiled again.

"So, since you're here because of what they want to do with you, what do you think's gonna happen?" Adeline asks.

"I really don't know what else, but Kirby's coming after us right now, so instead of being damsels in distresses, we should try to make Kirby's job easier somehow."

"You mean by either breaking out ourselves or stay around and try to find out more about their plans?" Adeline asks. "That's the only two options at this point. What do you think we should both do, Kaila?"

"Hmm, we'll have to think about it first, Adeline," I said.

At this point, I think it's best to end it here for now. So, from what happened so far, I recalled my memories with Karly before this mess happened, I found out that Kirby had freed the people on Aura Star and he found my long lost sister, Kazela. Stark reveals the secrets behind each planet and they placed another prisoner named Adeline, who was with Kirby on his adventures and was possessed by Dark Matter as well. She had drawings on Kirby and the brawls with Dark Matter Members, and one of Kirby and Karly as humans. Basically, I've found a lot today, but the next time I write my next diary entry, we'll have to make a choice out of two option to try and help Kirby. Maybe.


Will both of us:

Find a way out of this ship and escape from them?

Stick around and try to find out more about their plans?

I guess you'll have to decide. Who knows what choice could change the course for us?

End of Kaila's POV: Stuck With My Worst Enemy

End of Episode 1!


Author's Note Summary:

Chapter 9 is done! This took me a while to finish, but I had homework and classwork to do, and we had FSA testing last week. Anyway, as you can see, there were a lot of details explained here, and one of them was Adeline. If you've figured it out, then the fact is, it was Adeline who was taken. Her style looks different, and that's because it's my design with a few exceptions and some changes. The drawings Adeline had will probably resemble some fan art maybe, and the one with Kirby and Karly was just the cover image above. There's something important, so listen up. At the end of the chapter, I'm gonna need your opinion on this one. From Emiliano733's review, it said something about freeing Kaila as soon as possible and make fight on Kirby's side more often and I already considered that.

Only one thing though and here's how it's gonna work: The thing is, if I free Kaila to escape TOO early, that wouldn't be good and would beat the point of saving her in the first place, and if I free her TOO late, that would mean you would get her as a party member at the last second, and it'll probably be at the point of entering the last world. From your perspective, I need to time this the best I can, so I need your answer to these two options. So by every chapter with Kaila, the entry pages will mostly be about whether she chose to escape or to find out more in action. It will all be determined by your choice. Of course, on the escape part, don't expect her to escape that easily. I mean, would you escape if you don't know where the exit is or the layouts of the prison place at all? Not saying you can't pick that, but picking this won't automatically mean that they'll make it out of there. They'll try to find a layout map in the ship in order to find the safest route to freedom without the member's consent. Picking the other option will make them sneak around the ship and try to find something important that'll reveal details about their plans even deeper. But I need to get to a point where you all will have enough information about the secret behind the attack and why, and I will hold off some of them till the end. These chapters will be based on your choice and feel free to add more to your choice pick.

So, type what you want Kaila to do, and at every chapter with her, the majority of either is what it'll be. That's all I have to say, and sorry this was long, I don't know why. So, next time, it'll be the start of World 2: Planet Deserlava Star with the gang. Let me know what you all thought in your reviews, and I apologize for anything that you disliked here. That's all I have to say for now, and have a nice day! Byyee!
