As far as the Stars take you // A Marxolor Story

Chapter Nine

  My friend was corrupted, and I didn't know what to do. So I did the only thing I could think to do. I went to Kirby...they were the only one who had defeated him..and they could help.

"Oh Nova- Okay..so we don't have any time, he's normally pretty fast..but this form he's even faster..He's probably made it to Castle Dedede by now so we have to go..like now."

When we had gotten pretty close there, something had felt off. It seemed too quiet in the castle. Walking through the halls.. I didn't feel ready for what was coming for us.

That's when we saw it.

Blood.

The two colors were different..some most of it was red..but a lot of it was a cyanish color too.

We were running at this point..We, no.. I didn't want to see anyone get hurt badly. When we had gotten to the point where my old friend was.. I was kind of surprised. The waddle dees had done an amazing job fending him off from the castle. But a lot of them were bleeding, but from being stabbed so many times, Marx..I can't even call him his name right now and it feeling right. Well, he was bleeding too.

"Maggs?! Ahh, You made it! Do you mind helping me out here?"

The WDs looked at me, knowing my past..they probably thought I would have helped. But the only thing I wanted to do right now was to free my Friend from this living nightmare.

"I won't. Not this you. I would want to help my friend. But you aren't right now, but I know that my real friend is buried deep inside."

 "What do you mean? We're Best friends! Don't you remember?"

"I don't remember, but its because I'm not a corrupted soul anymore. You and my soul might be close friends, but I'm friends with my version of you, from this popstar, the little kid who we both know doesn't want this."

He looked at me in a weird way, like he was...listening? "Just...Just Shut up! Y-You just don't understand. This is a dream we've had for Years! We're so close now, and no one's stopping me at this point."

And at that moment. He flew at me, his wing piercing through my stomach, clawing at my face. But he seemed to be crying, I guess the way he was looking at it, was he was hurting his friend, even if we aren't friends in this dimension.

He had seen Kirby I'm guessing, Because the next second he was tied up in a mess of vines. I couldn't help but to see that the vines actually had flowers, I'm no flower expert like Taranza, but they might be Roses..

"You don't understand, you don't! You or anyone else! Y-you seriously don't want to help?!  Both of us have wanted this for years! Y-YOU'RE JUST GIVING UP NOW?!"

He looked at me, and his wing left the wound in my stomach. It didn't make sense why he did it, but he looked for a way to leave the situation, he had a deep wound as well, so it might stager him.

Somewhere, though...inside

I just saw a little kid, begging for help.
