Kirby, our hero, makes his home in Dream Land, which is located
on PopStar.
PopStar is a small, peaceful planet at the edge of a vast
universe.
One day, Kirby and Gooey went fishing. Birds were singing. The
sun was
shining. It was such a nice day that they felt more like napping
than
fishing.
----- Page 3 -----
[no words - image of Kirby fishing and Gooey playing with a
butterfly]
----- Page 4 -----
As Kirby and Gooey relaxed, they noticed a black, cloud-like
object appear in
the PopStar sky!
The black object started to spit out small clouds. These clouds
were
scattered everywhere.
Just then, Coo appeared, looking panicked. "Hurry, Kirby!" he
said.
"PopStar's in BIG trouble!"

They started to
do terrible things!

Now, Kirby and his friends have left to get rid of these strange
clouds and
save PopStar!
