Kirby: Escape from the Mirror World!

21

Kirby was starting to sweat like a fountain. He panicked.

He had to make his wish now, or he would have a hard time battling Dark Meta Knight. He couldn't wish to kill Dark Meta Knight, though. Kirby knew, no matter how evil the enemy was, they had a good side. Dark Meta Knight was Meta Knight.

At least, his reflection.

Kirby was afraid that he would also kill Meta Knight in the process, since they were the same person.

But since he couldn't wish something that he didn't actually want to happen, he couldn't wish it anyways. 

Kirby was panicking and trying to think of a wish to help him get rid of Dark Meta Knight and make it come true.

Kirby was afraid that he would also kill Meta Knight in the process, since they were the same person.

It was either sink or swim. Kirby was going to be torn apart by his heart, the mirror, his wish and his friends.

Kirby took a deep breath and opened his mouth.

"Dimension Mirror, I wish to..."

"Kiirrrbby!!!!"

Kirby was interrupted by a loud screeching noise.

"Hide! Dark Meta Knight is here! He took them!"

"Took who?"

Kirby wanted to look, but he had no time. He had to wish, now.

Kirby stared at the mirror. It was crystal clear. He looked at his reflection. There were only two shadows, but none of them were Meta Knight or Shadow Kirby's figure. They had disappeared from the room. 

Kirby turned around. "Shadow! Meta Knight!"

No response.

Kirby quickly glanced at the other person who stopped Kirby. He drew back and protected the mirror. Then Kirby took a closer look. The jagged cloak, the top hat, the cane...

He looked very familiar...

Kirby gasped. "You're..."

It was Daroach.

"Huuh?! Daroach? Weren't you..." Kirby stuttered, out of words to say to him. He pinched his arm, making sure that he was not dreaming.

He wasn't.

Daroach waved his arms. "Are you deaf? Hide!" His ears perked up. He had definitely heard Dark Meta Knight. "Or I will do it by myself."

Daroach vanished into thin air.

He had teleported away.

Kirby tried to catch him, but he fell into a pile of coins.

"Daroach..." Kirby said.

Kirby then reminded himself that Dark Meta Knight was nearby. He looked at the Dimension Mirror.

Kirby opened his mouth and hastily stuffed the mirror inside. It was the only way to protect the Dimension Mirror.

Before Kirby could dive in the pile of coins and hide, the door suddenly banged open and Dark Meta Knight barged in. He was holding Shadow Kirby and Meta Knight, both tied up in thick ropes.

"Huh? I didn't see you. How did you take them!" Kirby said.

Dark Meta Knight chuckled. "You underestimate my power. I am able to teleport." He answered. 

"Now, you have two choices: One, you may surrender and I will give them back. Two: Dare to move even a little bit and attack me. I will exterminate them when you even just take a step. Only two choices. Choose wisely, Kirby."
