Kirby’s Halloween Scare

From the brilliant mind of Knuckle Joe

 

CHAPTER ONE

"Come on, Come on. COME ON!!!" Kirby was tugging at DeDeDe’s robe. "Hold your horses, its not even 6:00 yet!!" DeDeDe replied, as he added some more face paint to his costume.

It was Halloween night, and Kirby was going as Mr. Saturn, and DeDeDe was going as Donkey Kong. Ado, standing beside them was going

as Link, and Ribbon was admiring her new Brentilda costume.

Kirby checked the bow on his single hair to make sure it was secured, then adjusted the plastic nose a bit. DeDeDe made sure his tie was tied correctly. Ado strapped the mock boomerang on her back, and grabbed her toy hookshot and sword. Ribbon tried to practice refilling honeycombs after giving strange advice, but she could never quite get it right.

"Ok, I’m ready!" DeDeDe shouted as he turned around from facing the mirror. "YES!!!" Kirby rejoiced, as he practiced his new voice. Ado twirled her Master Sword, before sticking it in her sheath. "I’m ready" she declared. "Yes my dears, I’m also prepared to leave" Ribbon chorused. "THEN LETS GO!!!"

 

CHAPTER TWO

"TRICK OR TREAT" the quartet cried as they knocked on the first door. Ness appeared at the door. "Uhh… we dont have any cand… WAIT, MR SATURN?" Ness exclaimed. "No silly, its me!" Kirby changed his voice as he shed his false nose. "Uh huh, thats what they ALL say!" Ness raised his bat. "NESS!!!" Tracy’s voice echoed inside the house. "I told you, that bat is mine now!! You gave it to Escargo Express, and you never asked for it back!!" Tracy stuck her tongue out. "NESS? ARE YOU TORTURING YOUR LITTLE SISTER AGAIN?" Ness’ mothers voice rang through the halls.

"Ness, give her back her bat, and give those kids some candy!!"

 

"But mom…"

 

"DONT BUT MOM ME YOUNG MAN!! GIVE EM THE CANDY, AND GIVE BACK THE BAT. GO TO YOUR ROOM, AND YOUR GROUNDED. AND YOU NOOOO YOU CANT TRY TO COOK THE STEAK WITH YOUR PSI TONIGHT!!!"

 

Ness drooped, handing each of them a handful of candy. "No go away!!" Ness slammed the door.

Kirby faced his comrades giving a shrug, and then continued on to the next house.

 

Knock Knock. The door swung open, revealing Banjo. "Hey, Halloween already eh? Oh, hi Brenty. Hey, do you guys mind if I go trick-or-treating with you?" Banjo inquired. "SURE!!" Kirby replied. "Great!" Banjo dashed into the house, and Kazooie appeared at the door. "Are you guys looking for candy?" she asked. "Uh… Yeah, actually we are!" De responded.

 

"WELL TOO BAD. Cause we aint got any!! No go away!" she snapped.

"Oh… Ok…" Kirby lead the others to the next house.

MINUTES LATER

Banjo appeared at the door, searching for the trick or treaters.

"Hey Kazooie, do you know what happened to those kids?"

"Gruntilda flew done and got em!" Kazooie joked.

"OH NO!!! GRUNTILDA’S BACK!! NO!!"

"Wait.. NO… Grola…" Kazooie’s voice was drowned out as she was stuffed into Banjo’s blue backpack.

Banjo strapped on the backpack and charged for the door, suddenly skidding to a halt, and gingerly using the doorknob.

Kazooie shook her head in shame.

 

CHAPTER THREE

 

"THIS IS A COSTUME, I SWEAR!!!" the girl cried. Banjo was holding up a tearful short six-year-old girl by her arm. She was dressed in a Gruntilda costume, and her brother beside her was dressed as Mumbo Jumbo.

"Yeah, I’m sure… Grunty probably just cast a spell on herself to make her look younger! I KNOW THOSE WITCHES!!" Banjo roared. "Hey Banjo, watch… Hey little girl, do you own a massive lair with 8 large worlds, filled with tons of evil mutated creatures and with a fat old witch doctor in about half of em?" Kazooie asked.

"No!" the girl said in tears.

"So there, Banjo, its settled, she’s not the REAL Gruntilda!" Kazooie exclaimed "especially since I made that story up…" she added in a whisper.

"Did you say something Kazooie?"

"Yeah, I said ‘So there, Banjo, its settled, she’s not the REAL Gruntilda!"

Banjo shook his head in shame

 

Banjo and Kazooie walked out into a different section of the neighbor- hood. But maybe looking back wouldn’t have been such a bad idea…

"Hehehehehe Ok Klungo. The coast is clear, now to kill that bird and bear" the little girl slowly transformed into old fat hag. And the boy beside her into Klungo, Gruntilda’s lab-coated assistant.

"Yessssssss Misssstrissss Gruntilda" Klungo replied as followed Gruntilda out into the streets.

* * *

 

"WOW!! Visitors… Wait, who’s that back there? OH! ITS MY SWORN BROTHER, LINK!!" A tall fat Goron stood in the door frame, with a bowl full of "candy".

"Sorry Durania, this is just a costume. I’m Adeline!" Ado spoke up. "Oh, well Ado, pleased to meet you!" Durania laughed. "So, I ‘spect you guys came here looking for candy! Well your in luck. These came straight from Dodongo’s Cavern!" Durania offered each one a round, rough rock wrapped in plastic.

"DOING ZOOM!! CANDY! YUM YUM!! ME EAT!! MR SATURN EAT CANDY. GOOD CANDY YUM YUM YUM!!!" Kirby acted exited about Durania’s treat, as to make sure he didn’t hurt the Fire Sage’s feelings. "Uhh… Yeah, thanks Durania…" each one of them wore a false, but large smile.

 

CHAPTER FOUR

 

Meanwhile, at Mad Monster Mansion….

"Yes, It’s Halloween once again. Gruntilda was kind enough to let us use her lair as our meeting place. Thank you Gruntilda. Now, you all may have an idea why I gathered you here today!! Well, just like what happens in every other boring fan fic writers story, WERE GOING TO DESTROY THE GOOD GUYS!!! Dang Knuckle Joe, think of a GOOD storyline once in a while!" Nightmare, in his vampire form sat at the head of the table. Gruntilda, Twinrova, Master Belch, and Krow resided around the table, with Napper snoozing loudly in the middle.

"Hehehe, what a stupid group they are, those good guys are below par! My sister Brenty, she will pout, when we tell her what our plan’s about!" Gruntilda rhymed.

"Ahhh… Finally I get to bring down my revenge on Ness… AHAHAHAHAHA.. burp…" Master Belch cried.

"SQUAK!!" Krow rang

"Now to take care of that Link!!" Kotake said as her sister nodded in agreement,

Nightmare sat quietly, a glint in his eye, and a sinister smile crossing his face. Finally, he would have his revenge!!

CHAPTER FIVE

 

"Well, gang… its almost 9:00. We better get going home. Wait, where is Kirby?" DeDeDe questioned. Ado, Ribbon, and DeDeDe checked all over the area. "HEY!! There’s Kirby!!" Ribbon pointed with her wand to two Urban Zombies and a Zombie Dog carrying "Mr. Saturn" off. "OH!! NO!!" Ado screamed!! "WE GOTTA GO SAVE HIM!!" But just as soon as the turned back towards Kirby, DeDeDe was gagged, and carried off by several small vultures with pirate hats. When Ado tried to drag DeDeDe by the arm in Kirby’s direction, he realized nothing stood there but air. "RIBBON!! NOW DE’S GONE TOO!!" Ado cried, but Ribbon had just been carried off by a pack of Te-hees. The green ghosts followed the Urban Zombies, and the vultures flew overheard them.

"OH NO!! OH NO!! OOOHHHHH NNNNNOOOOOO!!!" Ado began to panic, but she was soon grabbed by the arms by two Poes. "LET GO!!" she cried, but the Poes just laughed.

 

* * *

"This isn’t Link!!" Kounan cried as she showed the fake toys Ado was carrying, and the fact that Ado was a girl. "Nice job older sis!! You captured the wrong Link!" Kotake mocked. "Oh, no you dont!! Dont "older sister me!! You know we’re twins!!"

"OH YEAH??"

"YEAH!!"

 

"BEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLCH!! Wait, you IDIOTS!! This isn’t Mr. Saturn!! This is just some puffball!! HOW STUPID CAN YOU GET??!" Belch screamed to his Urban Zombies.

 

"YOU FOOLS!!! THIS IS ONLY A PENGUIN!! ITS NOT DONKEY KONG!!" Krow roared as she tried to hit her small servants. "HOW COULD YOU GET A PENGUIN CONFUSED WITH A GORRILA!! You guys are hopeless…"

 

"Yesssss Missss Gruntilda. We havvvvve found your ssssssissssster Brentilda!" Klungo said. "You stupid lizard this isn’t my sis, your dead now, unless I miss!!" Gruntilda raised her wand, but then decided to put it down "I’ve decided to spare you just for now, but next time you mess up, your brain goes Ka-Pow"

 

The evil smile spread even further as Nightmare let out a small chuckle. He was watching all his comrades quarrel from the top of the fireplace. "Such fools they are, fell right into my trap!" Nightmare suddenly leaped from the mantle, his cape billowing behind him. "Well, I’m glad to see you all have met my purpose. Thank you Gruntilda, Krow, Belch, and Kounan and Kotake. Thanks to you, I know have my prisoners!!!" Nightmare let out a long sinister laugh.

"You fooled us you stupid bat, Ill show you how I feel about that!!" Gruntilda’s eyebrows grew close together, and her wand started to glow. "Prepare to meet my powerful wrath, I hope it leads to your very death!!"

Krow stood dumbfounded. She didn’t know what to say. Yes, she hadn’t gotten DK, but she just ridded the world of more good guys. She decided to fly over by Nightmare.

"Oh you stupid big ol’ vulture, hasn’t someone taught you evil culture?" Gruntilda rhymed.

Master Belch stepped back, away from both sides. He could tell a fight was coming on, and he didn’t want to be a part of it. He knew the meaning of defeat.

"Oh, Kotake, I think Grunty’s right!! We should join her for the fight!!" Kounan informed. "Oh older sis, your starting to sound like Grunty herself!! I’m gonna join Nightmare!!"

"I’m not your older sis, everyone knows I’m younger, and more beautiful!"

"OH YEAH???"

"YEAH!!!"

 

Klungo, Gruntilda, and Kounan stayed on one end of the table, while Nightmare, Krow, and Kotake stood on the opposite end.

 

"Now its time for your defeat, it wont take much to pull of this feat!!" Gruntilda threatened, and the battle begun!

 

CHAPTER SIX

 

Kirby, Ado, DeDeDe, and Ribbon had all crawled under the table. "I dont know whats going on here, but I have a feeling we should get out ASAP!!" Kirby whispered. "Good plan! See the door over there?" DeDeDe drew his hammer. "Ill smash it down! Come on!!" DeDeDe led his tip-toeing friends to the door. He smashed it open, and continued outside, followed by Kirby, Ado, and Ribbon. "Where are we?" Ado cried as they entered the spooky area. "I dont know, but we got to get out!!" Ribbon replied, leading them to the silver circle in the ground. "Maybe this will get us out!!"

Next thing they knew, they were in what looked like a giant volcano. A small rock path zigzagged over the scolding hot lava. Being careful not to plummet down into the hot lava, they made there way to a big room with several blue mutant-type creatures. Kirby inhaled one, and spit it at the other. The quickly searched the room, finally finding a giant cauldron.

"Maybe we should climb in?" said Ribbon hesitantly. The friends jumped in, and found them selves at a large room, with a picture of Grunt on the floor. They continued out the door, and slid down the hill to find themselves facing a giant portrait of Grunty. "Uhh… Maybe we should go in that big mountain over there!" suggested Kirby, and the rest agreed.

The found themselves in a large valley. Some purple ogres and a bull were in sight, but a village could be spotted to their right. "Maybe there is someone up there who can help us!" Ado leaped with joy.

Being careful not to let the ogres and bull spot them, the finally were able to reach the top of the mountain. In the corner of the village was a giant skull.

* * *

"So let Mumbo get this straight? You want to go back home, but the man with the balloon already left… Hmm… take this magic pair of moccasins and say ‘There be no place like a pizzeria’ then say ‘OOOGA BOOGA!!’" Mumbo Jumbo exclaimed in a ‘what-a-stupid-question’ tone of voice.

"Uhh.. Ok." The four friends followed Mumbo’s counciling, and soon found themselves back at their house. It was 10:30, and as Kirby, DeDeDe, Ado, and Ribbon we’re sharing candy, and stuffing themselves sick with candy-corn, back in Mad Monster Mansion, an evil war is being fought.

 

CHAPTER SEVEN

"Hahaha you fool Kotake, with your bones, a cake I’ll bake! And take that you dumb vampire, For you things are looking pretty dire!! Oh, I forgot that pirate ghost, with my fireballs, you will roast!" Gruntilda laughed insanely as she sent black fireballs across the room. "Come on Kounan, we’ve got to win, kick the butt of your haggy twin!!"

The Twinrova sisters each were sending bursts of their energy. Kounan’s ice and Kotake’s fire.

Being careful not to be hit by Gruntilda’s black fireballs, Nightmare sent several orbs of concentrated energy bouncing across the room.

Klungo was trying to whack Krow, but she kept flying just out of his reach.

"Oh, now it looks though you are loosing, soon all over, you’ll guts’ll be oozing!!"

Kounan’s ice beam slowly started to push Kotake’s fire back towards her, but Kotake put an extra bursts of energy, and balanced out the beam.

Klungo finally grabbed Krow by the leg, and started spinning her around. After letting go, Krow was thrown right into the glass chandelier, shattering it to pieces. Krow, in panic, searched for an escape out of the room, but ended up running into a wall, knocking her out.

"Nice one Klungo, you hurt the bird, now let me defeat this annoying nerd!!"

An orb whacked Gruntilda right in the face, sending her flying across the room. "You idiot, that thing hit me, Now my power you shall see!!" Gruntilda gave an evil laugh, and all manner of creatures from Mad Monster Manner burst open the door, flooding in. Skeletons, ghosts, bats, living gravestones, and other monsters.

"Now my pets, attack that thing, before my head starts to ring!"

Nightmare cloaked himself, and suddenly disappeared.

"Whats this, he disappeared, he’s not one to be feared. Oh go away my useless army, dont worry, Ill make his butt sorry!!"

The ghouls retreated, and Nightmare reappeared. Unfortunately for him, he was standing right in front of Klungo. Klungo gave him a punch, but Nightmare disappeared again, this time, appearing again hovering over Klungo. He laughed before diving down, ready to attack. Nightmare picked up Klungo, and carried him over to the fireplace, ready to throw the giant lizard in the fiery furnace.

Finally Kotake ice started to weaken. Kounan put a final, strong burst of fire out, sending Kotake flying from the force of both beams. She hit Nightmare, making all three fall in the fireplace.

"NNNNOOOOOOO!!!!" fire was Kotake’s worse enemy, and now she was standing in it.

Gruntilda laughed, as she used her magic to bring Klungo out of the fire, and to her side.

"Now the battle we have won, boy wasn’t that just tons of fun!" Gruntilda said.

 

EPILOGE

So, peace was restored that Halloween Night, and the good guys got all their candy. Grunty and Klungo returned to their labratory, trying to find another way to make her feel younger. Master Belch returned to the sewer systems of Threed, but made sure not to cause TOO much trouble in the peaceful town. Kounan and Kotake returned to their potion shop in Clock Town. Krow once again joined the crew on the Gangplank Galleon, and as for Nightmare, no one is quite sure.

Meanwhile, back at the Kirby House…

"Ughh… I ate waaaaaay to much candy," Ado groaned.

"Would Kirby get out of the bathroom already, hes not the only one who needs to throw up!" DeDeDe’s face started to turn green.

"I HATE Halloween. Wake me up a year from tommarow…" Ribbon dozed off to sleep.

"So here ends this story of mine, I hope you had a really great time!!" Knuckle Joe excalimed.
