((Alright! This'll be my last post involving huge posts! I hope you guys can forgive me for doing this  ))Kirbynite slightly turned his head to the side, and looked out the corner of his eye. He had a slightly nervous smile on his face. "I.. didn't expect everyone to seriously leave me alone with them." His attention was redirected the second he heard a whip cracking. "Atleast that hammer thing took one out..." Kirbynite: C'mon, bring it! The pink puglist gritted his teeth and prepared for a fierce fi---a099sdfkl;a\fsd!#jf2i9)!(!;aksflda()*)=s;lkfd -------------------- OoC Chuchu: Whoa whoa! What happened?! OoC Rick: The machine broke! OoC Chuchu: Broke!? How did it break?! OoC Rick: I-I don't know! OoC Chuchu: Fix it before Kirb finds out! OoC Rick: Ok ok! But.. it looks like there's some corrupted data. Gooey could easily revert it back to normal, but he's busy visiting Washu-chan about something. OoC Chuchu: Then just reboot it from a later point, and cut out the corrupted part! OoC Rick: Whoa.. that's a big big chunk I'm gonna have to take out.. OoC Chuchu: Just do it! OoC Rick: Ok... ------------------------------ The evening sun set a beautiful scene, giving the surrounding trees and stream a beautiful orange glow. Kirbynite dragged himself on a tiny foot bridge over a small stream, and found himself next to his house. Kirbynite: Oh.. That was painful... I didn't expect to trip when jumping down the cliff...At.. Atleast I knocked those guys out.. I hope they won't remember my face.. ... I'm home, Dad.. Kirbynite looked at the dirt mound located behind the house. He nodded and then looked at the entrance. All of a sudden, the doors swung open. A woman with short, purple hair was standing in the entrance. She had huge, round glasses, a golden, long sleeve shirt, black shorts, and a pair of soft leather boots Lucca: Kirby! What's wrong? Kirbynite: Ah.. eh heh.. I just fell off of Green while I was coming here. Um.. Erm.. Big Sis?... Is there any chance you could make me a key crest? Lucca: ... Why do you need a Key Crest all of a sudden? Lucca picked Kirbynite up and brought him inside of the house. The inside of the house was littered with random machinery junk. Kirbynite was set down on a sofa, and Lucca set off to find some bandages. In the meantime, Lucca continued to question Kirbynite about his reason for needing a Key Crest. He tried to brush it off as a mercenary he had just met needing one, but she didn't buy it. Lucca: Dwarven Vow #11: Lying is the first step to the path of thievery! Kirbynite: Ugh, those vows.. We're not even dwarves... OW OW OW! The iodine took Kirbynite for surprise. It wasn't so hard to get the truth from the pink creature. However, Lucca didn't take it so lightly. Lucca: You went to the ranch?! Kirbynite: I'm sorry! I'm sorry! It's just... stuff happened.. and.. Lucca: You didn't let the Gu Goombas see your Exsphere, did you? Kirbynite: No no.. I made sure... But... why do I have to hide it? This one mercenary wore hers out in the open. Lucca gave a little sigh, and sat down beside Kirby. She stared out the window and blinked for a few moments. Lucca: It.. belonged to your father. It was a keepsake from him... The Gu Goombas.. killed your father in order to take it from him. Kirbynite: They.. did? Lucca: I told you how I found you at the cliff near the ranch, right? Your father was still concious at the time, so he explained everything. No doubt about it. A great anger began to stir up inside of Kirbynite. He hopped out of the sofa and turned around. Lucca knew what he was gonna say. Lucca: If I had, you would've gone and tried to take revenge, Kirby. The Tower of Salvation appeared today... just leave the rest to Haruko. And the Gu Goombas will be taken care of. Don't get involved with them, Kirby! Your father protected you and that Exsphere with his life! Don't go throwing either away, please. Kirbynite: Ok. But will you make me that key crest? Lucca: Are you listening to me, Kirby? Kirbynite: Yeah, I heard. But you can't expect me to not do anything now that I know. And with that, a mighty slapping sound shot out of the house. Kirbynite's left cheek was glowing red. Kirbynite: You.. You didn't have to smack me! Ugh! He turned around and rushed out the door. The door slammed shut as he leapt outside. He was tearing up a bit, overcome with the sudden knowledge. He looks to his right, and falls over. Gutsman was standing before him, as was Jack, Fem, Marina, and everyone else. Kirbynite: Oh.. um.. you guys just.. heard that, huh?

| Zap, who was leaning up against the house right next to the door, nodded, but his counterpart just couldn't keep the moment solemn. Teddylot: *pops up from behind Kirbynite* She slapped you! ^________^ It echoed all throughout the forest, too. Oh, by the way, you still have some of that red glowy stuff left over on your face. *hands him a neckerchief* You might want to wipe that clean before appearing in public. People will talk. *nods* |

| Kirbynite looked off to the side as he grabbed the neckershief from Teddylot. The silence was broken by Jack attempting to apologize. Jack: Kirb.. The ranch.. Kirbynite: Nah nah. It's alright, man. It's best this way. A bit more silence. Kirbynite: Um.. Jack. The present's upstairs. Jack: Guess I'll go and pick it up. Haruko: I'll come too.  Kirbynite: Oh! Bring Gutsman with you when you go inside. I'm sure that'll cheer Lucca up. Kirbynite looked around as the shuffling around occured. Kirbynite: Suppose this would be a decent time for us to just talk while the Chosen's sitll here. Kirbynite continued to look around. He saw Fem, Janus, Mr. Gun... And he noticed Marina was standing next to his father's grave. Kirbynite: *snorts* I can't believe they hired both of the mercenaries. Kirby's eyes then moved onto Teddylot and Zap. Kirbynite: You guys here to see what's gonna happen with Gutsman? Or... don't tell me.. you guys are going on the journey too..? (edited by Kirbynite on 07-12-05 10:02 PM) |

Teddylot: I wish.  Zap pushed himself off the wall he was leaning against and took hold of Teddylot by the ruff of his neck. He silently followed the group into the house with Teddylot challenging his hold to no avail. |

| Kirbynite walked towards Marina, who was still standing next to his father's grave. Marina: So.. Your father's name was James? Kirbynite: Yeah.. Marina: Your mother... Do you know where she is... Kirbynite: She died... Well.. atleast.. I.. Marina: I see.. Forgive me for asking. The awkward moment was broken by a squealing noise. Kirbynite turned to the side and looked at the house. Kirbynite: Looks like Big Sis met Gutsman. |

| Lucca's screaming wasn't caused by Gutsman - rather, a tall man in black with a big hat and wielding a shotgun who had shown up unexpectedly on her doorstep. Lucca had opened the door, took one look up at him, and shrieked loudly, followed by a hail of various insults an accusations. At his first attempt to speak, the figure found himself hurled a distance of several feet by Lucca's powerful whallop, and tumbled head-over-heels onto his front. Figure: What a detestable young lady. (edited by ASSES! on 07-15-05 07:59 AM) |

| Janus looked down at The Figure with a slightly bewildered expression on his face, and prodded him a few times with his foot. Shame.... Janus: "Man, that's taking the term "Fanboy" to new levels..." |

| Lucca: *panting* I'm sorry.. I just thought.. Kirbynite ran to the front of the house to see what had just happened. Kirbynite: Um.. Big Sis, this guy doesn't have any fur on him. Lucca: ... Eh heh heh.. yeah, I realized that now. Kirby! No breaking the fourth wall! Kirbynite: You started it! Hm? Why's everyone going inside? Guess they wanted to see what was gonna happen with Gutsman... oh well. I'm gonna go bug Jack and Haruko. Kirbynite ran inside the house. In the meantime, Marina stepped away from the grave and walked towards the front of the house. She looked down at the figure on the ground. Marina: Am I to assume you do not have luck with normal folk? *looks at Lucca* Kirbynite.. He called you "Big Sis"? Lucca adjusted her glasses and glanced at Marina. Lucca: Yes.. I looked after him after his parents passed away. Marina: I see.. |

| Picking himself up and brushing himself off, the figure reached to his side and retrieved his gun, then adjusted his hat with one gloved hand. His glasses slinted in the bright sunlight, and he swiveled on his heels, turning to face the ocean as he rested the barrel of his gun on his shoulder. Figure: The mayor has conscripted me into joining you and Miss Haruko. (edited by ASSES! on 07-15-05 09:36 PM) |

| Marina: Of course. Why else would a mercenary like you come all this way, right "Mr. Gun"? Or do you have a name other than the one the child made up? --------------- Kirbynite: Hey, guys! Did you find it yet? Jack: Er... Haruko: Nope. We're still looking for it. Kirbynite popped his head into the room on the second floor. Jack: How could it have been lost? I mean, it was on that stool by the window. Kirbynite: ... Gack! I've been meaning to tell you this, Jack, but.. Eh heh.. I kinda knocked it out the window... Jack: What?! Why are we still looking for it here!? Kirbynite: About that... It fell into the nearby stream, eh heh.. Jack: .... Haruko: Could you just wish me a happy birthday instead, Jack? Jack: I.. sure. Happy Birthday, Haruko. Haruko: Thanks |

| Figure: My presence here is not a matter of money. Rather, it is over the lack of interest involved with most armed escort assignments. And as I already said... I do not have a name associated with my being. He sighed. Figure: But... if we are to be traveling companions for such an extended period of time, then a name would be most appropriate. The man removed his hat, and made a half-bow to Marina, before rising back up and planting the headgear firmly on his head. Figure: Call me Mel. (edited by Melvin on 07-16-05 02:43 AM) |

| Marina bowed her head in return. Marina: Well, incase you missed my name, it is Marina Liteyear. I'm positive you will be envied by other mercenaries; coming in at the right time to be hired to look after the Chosen. Fem: Yes. Both of you were extremely lucky to have this happen. Marina: Hmph. As long as I'm paid, I do not care for how well known I become for escorting the Chosen. ----------------------- Haruko: I'm glad I was able to live up to this day.. Kirbynite: Eh? Jack: What are you talking about? You're going to keep on living and regenerate the world. Haruko: Oh, yeah. Kirbynite: Sorry for interupting.. but..about us coming along.. Haruko: .. The Gu-Goombas are going to be after us.. so.. it's going to be a dangerous journey. Kirbynite: .. Gu-Goombas... I always thought my dad died in an accident.. But he was murdered by them! I can't live in the same area as a village that has a treaty with them. Jack: *nods* Kirb's like my brother, and finding out about that bothered me too. And besides, Haruko... I.. Haruko: ....We're leaving at noon tomorrow. Would you two come to the village around then? Kirbynite: Heck yeah! Jack: I'll be able to see you become more of.. er.. become a real angel with my own eyes. Fem: Hey! We're about to head back to the village. The Chosen needs to have her sleep. Haruko: Oh! Yes! I'm coming! Kirbynite: G'night. Jack: I'm going to stay here and look for the present. I'll see you tomorrow, ok, Haruko? Haruko: Alright... Goodbye.. (edited by Kirbynite on 07-16-05 05:06 AM) |

| Jack, standing on the balcony, waved his hand at Haruko as she and the others walked towards the forest. As soon as they were gone... Kirbynite: Whoo! I can't believe it! We're gonna go! And we didn't have to come up with any plans! *looks up at the moon* Tethe'alla looks quite nice tonight... Jack: Do you think Lucca can fix up Guts? Kirbynite: Of course! She can do anything! Jack: *dull look* Of course you say that, but remember Gato? Kirbynite: ..... I thought it was the Professor who took him out by trying to over examine him. |

| Closing the door of his small hotel room, the cloaked figure, now known as Mel, removed his hat, setting it down on the bed beside him. He squatted down and pulled a large, rectangular case out from under the bed, and popped the twin latches holding the case closed. He lifted the cover, placed his gun inside, and shut the case, locking it securely and sliding it back under the bed. He moved his hat to the nightstand beside him, and laid on the bed on his back, quickly falling asleep. FAST FORWARD TO NEXT DAY OMG OMG (edited by Melvin on 07-23-05 08:19 AM) |

| OoC: And Fast Forward we shall have. ------------------- Jack: Kirb. Kirbynite: I'm sure we'll find it! Jack: We spent all morning looking for it! How long ago did it fall? It's probably washed down to the river by now! Kirbynite: No worries! Jack: What do you mean? We gotta get to the village by noon! Lucca: Kirby.. Kirbynite, who was hunching over the tiny stream near the house, turned to see Lucca standing by the door. He looked to the side before walking towards her. Lucca: I made the crest for you. Kirbynite: You... YOU DID?! Lucca: Yeah.. Kirbynite: Oh! Thank you so much, Big Sis! Kirbynite lunged towards Lucca and tried to hug her as much as he could. Lucca: Hey hey hey! That doesn't mean I'm completely cooled off! I mean.. You're gonna go off and such.. Kirbynite: Don't you worry, Big Sis. I promise I won't let you or dad down. Lucca: I know you won't. But... Kirby.. Why are you all still here? My village cam noticed the Chosen's group left at dawn. It was at this moment, Jack flipped out. Jack: Haruko already left?! I thought she said-- Kirbynite: What in the heck? Why are we still here? Green! Green: Yoshi! Kirbynite: Let's go! Jack: We should check with Hector before we figure out anything else. Kirbynite: Good idea. Lucca: I'll send Gutsman to the village after I finish up the diagnostics check. You might need him along the way. Kirbynite: Stop reading the script, Big Sis.  Lucca: Us geniuses have to keep that omniscent vibe going, right? Kirbynite: ... Lucca: I just read a few pages, ok? Now go to your friend. Jack: Don't have to tell me twice. ---------------------------------- Haruko: I feel kind of bad... Haruko, along with Fem, Marina, and Mel, were walking across some flat plains. There were patches of sand hidden throughout the grass. The amount of ferocious bunnies and murderous hawks were decreasing while venomous snakes and pinchy scorpians seemed to appear more often. It was quite apparant that they were getting close to a desert. Fem: Don't feel so, dear. Marina: Yes. It was for the best. The Chosen's journey should not be delayed as much as possible. |

| Mel strode along behind the three, carrying a very large, rectangular black case in one hand, which dangled beside him as he walked. Mel: We all know that the journey's going to be that much quicker if we don't have to look out for a bunch of kids along the way. |

((Blargh.. what happened to the large amount of people posting here long ago?  ))Haruko: *Thinks to herself*~... But I still feel bad...~ Marina: We should stop by the oasis town for some rest and to check to see if we have enough equipment on us. Fem: I agree. That would seem to be a good idea. Marina casually casted a fireball spell and singed an oncoming scorpian. She squinted her eyes and tried to look into the distance for the location of the oasis town. -------------------------- After a bit of rampant running, monster slashing and burning, Kirbynite and co finally made it back to the village. With a bit of panting and feet dragging, they made it to Haruko's house. Jack: I hope Lucca was wrong... Kirbynite: *knocks on the door* .... |

| ((Have no fear, for I am here.)) Teddylot and Zap charged through the overgrown underbrush and around the scattered trees. They were taking a shortcut through the woods to catch up with their fellow party members. Zap was quickly stuffing his backpack with extra clothes and some useful gadgets they might need on their journey. Teddylot took the lead, his position only known by his staff poking from out of the tall grass. In his hand, he held a huge stack of printing paper, binded together by some twine. Zap: Are you sure you're supposed to be looking at that? Looks spoilerish. Teddylot: Kidding me? This script is the reason why we haven't been completely left behind yet. Now, let's see. *flips a few pages* Wow, this information will certainly help in the-- GAH! The printing paper, as it tends to do, broke out into flames right in the bear's hands. Zap ignored the event, instead pulling out a rough map of the surrounding area. Zap: Haruko's house is about a half-mile stretch away. Teddylot: QUICK! Two-minute pace! Teddylot picked up the speed considerably and before Zap was able to see what his bear friend was up to, he had almost lost sight of him. Zap: *speeds up* Good thing I'm a runner.  |

| Jack: Where's Haruko!? Did she tell us the wrong time!? Gyromite: Ah.. ahem... Haruko asked me to give this to you. Jack approached the dining room table, where Haruko's father had pointed out a letter that was left behind. Jack picked up the letter and began to read it out loud. "Dear Jack, By the time you read this, I will have already left on my journey. I'm sorry for lying to you, and to Kirby. The world regeneration journey is full of peril. Many Chosens have failed. I care about you too deeply to let you get involved." Jack's face was going through a mixture of feelings. The latest one was a bright red. "I'm going to do my best to stop the monsters and the Gu-Goombas, so I want you to live a happy and peaceful life in the regenerated world. Thank you so much for your friendship and kindness all these years. I'm really lucky to have met you. Farewell, Haruko." Kirbynite: ... Erm... Mr. Gyromite.. Jack: What the hell? This almost sounds like a will. Gyromite: Well.. I suppose it.. *clears throat* There is something we hid from you and the entire village. All of a sudden, the conversation was interupted by the sound of a building collapsing. Kirbynite ran over to the door and swung it open. Kirbynite: Holy cucco! The town's on fire!! --------------- Gu-Goomba D: Burrrrn, baby burn! Gu-Goomba E: Disco Inferno! Kirbynite was right. The village's entrance was swamped with Gu-Goombas, while a few stray soldiers were setting fire to some buildings. |
