Meta Knight's POV...

Yaaaaay. Arthur's back.

Joy to the world...

I grab Galaxia, my golden sword, and yank it out of the stone wall.

When Arthur gets up, and dusts himself off, he immediately studies Opala and her little friend group, which consists of Augustine, Spruce, Terence, Opala and-

WAIT A SECOND.

No... it CAN'T be...

(And how did I not notice earlier?)

I lunge at Galacta Knight at full power, totally ambushing him.

"OW WHAT THE- wait a second! IT'S YOU!"
He then grins underneath his dumb mask.
"Nice to see you again, Meta!"

"What?! Nice to see me again? Don't we have like, I don't know... A HARDCORE RIVALRY?!" I roar at top volume.

"I've changed, Meta. I'm not even here for you. I'm here to..." He fades his words. He's definitely hiding something, and I want to know what-

"Uhhhhhhhh I was here to make a bunch of mischief with magic, so that the some of NME's troops from another Timeline would come to this Timeline, and show up at this fort to investigate, and when they did, I would avenge my friend by slaughtering every single one of them, but she's alive, and now that I am aware of that, I'm basically done here."

He just admitted all that precious information. In front of ME?
WHAT THE HECK?!

"Were you the one that turnt Arthur into a lemon?"

"Yep. At least I didn't lie, right?"
"You're an idiot."
"Yeah, I know."
I leap off of him, and land next to Arthur, who was glaring at Galacta Knight for his utter stupidity.

"But I also came here to warn you guys about something," He says, also brushing the dust off of himself.

"I was snooping around Halcandra the other day, and I found out some disturbing news." Arthur turns his attention to Galacta, and so does the rest of the Star Warriors.

"What is it? What'd you find?" Opala eagerly spoke.

"I found out that they're building something huge... what appears to be a giant weapon against Star Warriors or something. I dug even further, and found the plans for it."

He then opens a magenta colored slit in the air with his lance, and everyone gasps in astonishment as he puts his glove in the cut, and digs around. It makes a gross sloshing noise, but he eventually pulls his glove out, with what appears to be a blueprint of some sort.

"Here," He brushes off the pink gooey stuff, and unrolls the paper, revealing a complex, scale, and beautifully drawn blue print of a terrifying... thing of total destruction. There was plenty of captions and priceless information, but it was all written in Halcandran. Arthur gasps in horror, and I stare in awe, knowing that this was probably the most intricate and elegant way to die.

Aren't those smart little levitating eggs just wonderful?

"Oh my Nova..." Opala was terrified, her gloves trembling, her eyes widened in astonishment. Nonsurat glared in suspicion and starts to interrogate Galacta Knight.
