Meta Knight handed Shadow Kirby a small sack. It was full of beautiful orbs with little shapes resembling items in the middle. 

Shadow Kirby gasped in awe. "So much... I can't decide what to use! Hmmm. Fire can burn them, Ice can freeze, Jet can fly, Bell can make a racket, Crash! It can make a big explosion! Oh, I'll hurt my friends, though..."

Meta Knight shook Shadow Kirby. "Just do it already!"

Shadow Kirby shook his head and shoved his hand into the sack. He pulled out the first essence that he grabbed.

A purple cap appeared on Shadow Kirby's head, and a bandage was placed on Shadow Kirby's cheek. A red yo-yo appeared on his hand and he swung it around skillfully. This was the "Yo-Yo" ability!

Dark Meta Knight, his crimson eyes gleaming with determination, unsheathed his sword.The Mirror World residents, equally formidable, stood beside him, their eyes filled with an eerie glow.

On the opposing side, Kirby grasped his shining sword, his eyes shining with unwavering bravery. "Let's do it!"

Shadow Kirby, reflecting Kirby's braveness, swung his yo-yo around. 

Meta Knight held on to his legendary Galaxia blade, his cape blowing in the wind. "This war is going to end."

Daroach, prepared his trusty wand, ready to unleash his unique abilities.

The battle began with a flurry of strikes and counterattacks.

"Hiyah!" Kirby slashed his sword.

Dark Meta Knight dodged and attacked.

Kirby quickly rolled away.

Dark Meta Knight's swift swordplay matched Kirby's agility, each blow producing sparks that illuminated the battlefield. 

Shadow Kirby frowned. "There is too much enemies!" He cried. "I can't keep up with all this... Waah."

At least Daroach's magical power added an unpredictable element to the battle, keeping everyone on their toes.

Dark Meta Knight, fueled by his desire for conquest, unleashed a devastating dark energy wave, engulfing the battlefield. "Vampire Crescent Shot!"

 Kirby, drawing upon his own determination, countered with a powerful Sword Beam, deflecting the attack. "Sword Beam!"

Shadow Kirby, sensing an opening, launched his yo-yo.

 Daroach shot the Triple Star Cane.

Dark Meta Knight guarded both attacks.

But both Kirby and Shadow Kirby struck Dark Meta Knight.

Their minds were the same. Kirby and Shadow Kirby charged. They were silently speaking to each other without their mouths.

We can't battle him this way!

We gotta work together.

Come on, let's do a counterattack together. That way we'll knock him down. Charge your best one...

ATTACK!

The duo attacked Dark Meta Knight together. With the power of both of them, even Dark Meta Knight could not escape. They dealt humongous damage.

Daroach and Meta Knight started fighting the others.

Soon, Parallel Landia was knocked out.

Then all the mirror residents ran away in fear.

Kirby stood over Dark Meta Knight.

It was a battle of endurance and skill. Dark Meta Knight and his allies fought well, but the combined might of Kirby, Shadow Kirby, Meta Knight, and Daroach proved to be too much to handle. The Mirror World residents retreated to the shadows.

As the dust settled, Kirby, Meta Knight, Shadow Kirby, and Daroach stood triumphant. Kirby smiled and sheathed his sword.

"We won."

Everyone nodded.

Kirby continued. "And, you know why? There was so much of them. It's because our bond would always remain unbreakable. We're besties, right?"

Shadow Kirby agreed. "We've got friends and they don't. They are just heartless servants, ripped from their souls."

"You're... you're not out of the woods yet."

Dark Meta Knight slowly got up and raised his sword. There was no power in his body, however. Dark Meta Knight collapsed again.

Kirby looked down at him. He ignored him.

Kirby smiled and nodded. He looked at the mirror.

"Dimension Mirror, I wish to..."
