It turns out the whole "missing hammer" thing was a joke. Turns out, the hammer just slid off Bonkers' hand, and he quickly assumed some Waddle Dee who was strolling around was the theif. Urod quickly found it around a volcano, and brought it to Bonkers.
"*sniff* Thanks, you six... *sniff* you can bypass me now..." Bonkers moved out of the way and sat in a corner, hugging his hammer. "I really missed you."
"Now then," Archcore said, "remember our promise. We found the hammer, so we keep going and overthrow Pyribbit."
"Yeah..." replied Taranza, "we know..."
All six members of the group kept walking up the volcano. Meta Knight did, mostly, as he basically was forced to hold the others while he flew over the lava.
"Taranza, you could've flew us over instead..." Meta Knight argued.
"You know how HEAVY their arrows are?" Taranza replied.
"You're heavier..."
It took them a long time, but our team finally reached the entrance to the volcano, and to overthrow Pyribbit out of his position.
"Alright, gang," Rrozone started, "This is it."
"Ar- are you sure we should do it?" Taranza said. He tried to back up, and bumped into Pyribbit.
"You don't, if you wanna get eaten."
Pyribbit woke up and turned around. Seeing the team in his volcano without permission made him angry.
"Halt, you frog!" shouted Meta Knight, "we're here to stop you!"
"And WHAT makes you think you can stop me from..." Pyribbit didn't understand. "Stop me from what, exactly?"
"To overtake your position and make ME queen!" Archcore shouted.
"Woah, woah, woah. You? I'm gonna be king!" Urod argued.
"I wouldn't mind Archcore being queen..." Satrul responded.
"Or are you saying that just because you'd wanna be king?!"
"Oh, like YOU idiots could do better than me!" Rrozone argued.
Soon, The Nightmares forgotten about Pyribbit and started to fight. Physically. A big cloud dusted up as they tried punching each other.
Pyribbit wanted to know what was going on. "So, is this a horrible plan mistake or..."
"My mistake, Pyribbit," Taranza apologized, "You see, Kirby has gone missing, and we're trying to earn some sand in order to find him..." He pulled out the jugs as he started to grab sand beside Pyribbit."
"We'll be quick, your majesty," Meta Knight promised.
The two quickly scooped sand into the jugs as The Nightmares kept fighting. Eventually, Pyrbbit got bored and pushed them all off the volcano.
"Would you explain as to WHY Kirby is missing?" Pyribbit questioned.
"Got kidnapped. Poor thing was then thrown into a portal and into some kind of different dimension," Meta Knight answered.
"Hmmm..."
"If we don't, he might be gone forever.."
"...Well then, hurry with the sand. It won't be long before I actually fight you two."
Taranza worringly scoopss up more sand as he hears this.
"...I lost someone too. Or as the other kids called it, something."
They both stop scooping and listened to Pyribbit.
"You- you too?" asked Taranza.
Pyribbit nodded his head. "My mother once given me something that looked like a shell. I didn't care for it until one day when I was forced to bring it with me to the Magma Pond. There, I realized it was a Hermit Crab, and it didn't look so good. I escaped Endless Explosions, which my parents warned me not to do, and quickly dipped it in Wild World's ponds. I've been learning engineering to install water inside secret parts of my home, and made a little paradise for him right next to where I slept."
"And then?"
"I'd always bring the little crab with me everywhere, but then these idiots stole my friend. I tried saving him, but they already threw him into the lava, and my friend was no more... I knew exactly how you reacted when the queen left. My crab is always in my mind, and I'd never forget him..."
"I'm... sorry to hear that..."
"I don't get why people always say they're sorry when someone dies. Look, it's not your fault, but it's ok. Now quickly, scoop up your sand so you can get out."
RING! RING!
"Huh? What's that sound?" Taranza asked.
"New phone thingie Magalor made for me. Figured I'd need a easier way to talk to my army." It looked like a blue flip phone, with a star on it's end, which the entire thing kinda looked like Kirby's phone for summoning his Warp Star.
"Meta Knight!" Magalor shouted from the phone, "Quickly report to Egg Engines over in Halcandra! I'm summoning a portal to there!"
"Wait, what for?" Meta Knight asked, as the portal appeared, which showed 10 doors, all open with broken gears.
"We found something big, just c'mon and bring any essentials," Dedede interrupted.
"Well, I gotta go," Meta Knight said as he picked up the jugs. "Wanna come, Taranza?"
Taranza looked back down the volcano. Seeing the entire Dreamstalk, in bloom. He had to keep these flowers open.
They reminded him of Sectonia.
"No, you go ahead," Taranza replied, "I got some important work to do."
"Alrighty then, I'll see you later comrade." Meta Knight nodded his head once, then jumped into the portal.
One step closer to finding Kirby.
