Supa Dreamlander: I have my moments.

---------------------------

Grubba: Fer our next battle, we got the Merciless Executioners, SUPA DREAMLANDER AND CO.! And... The Green Torture Squad.... Yep, a fight with The Punk Rocks!!

On the other side of the arena stood three short boulder-like creatures, all wearing purple boots.

Supa Dreamlander: I'd mention something about rock n' roll...

Cleftor: This no take long. This end in pain for sunglasses.

Grubba: Get yerselves ready to... BAAAAAAAATLE!

Kirby nudged Melvin. The OT'd guy slowly hovered towards Cleftor, who proceeds to ram Melvin back to Kirby.

Supa Dreamlander: Whoa there, I gotta make sure you don't fall off the platform and get disqualified for the rest of this fight...

Meanwhile, the other three rock creatures perform small hops, causing a soft glow to envelop their bodies.

Grey: "Wooo! Kick ass and defeat the foe with shining light of good and power! This reminds me of this one time where I had to fight a legion of ninjas with noth...."

Rooting from ringside, Grey rambled on, the effects of the Super Punch still giving him a "thy cup runneth over" of energy after his short nap. Digestion was something fierce.

---------------

Sig crept up and over the skylights of the arena, watching Melvin get battered back to Kirby and co. He clung to a steel rafter, a black sheet around his golden shell in order to stop it from glistening in the spotlights that swept around him. He pulled a pair of binoculars from beneath his shell and placed them over his shades...

Sig: "Lessee... I'm gonna see jus' what 'dose guys're up ta here... 'e don't even look like 'e's alive're anythin'..."

There was a loud mixture of crunching noises coming from Melvin as he was plowed through by three glowing Bald Cleft creatures. The amount of force behind the attack was so great that Melvin was sent straight off the platform and through the arena doors.

Someone let out a yell from beyond the doors, but it was too loud in the Glitz Pit to hear it.


Supa Dreamlander: Er... Well, hey, that was three attacks.

Kirby turned to the Punk Rocks. He glanced at Grey for a moment, suddenly remembering he had swiped the Emerald Star Stone from Boggly Woods. He reaches into his backpack and holds out the star. He quirks a brow as he shook it around, until he realized what seemed to be a bomb growing besides him.

Supa Dreamlander: Holy Cucco!!

Kirby gives the bomb a swift kick over to Cleftor.

Cleftor: Grack! Cleftor no want bomb!

Cleftor rammed the bomb back over to Kirby. The caped crusader didn't want anything to do with the bomb, so he kicked the bomb as hard as he could. However, the bomb landed into the audience. The crowd struggled to find the bomb hiding amongst their feet. When the bomb was found, it was thrown straight back into the arena. At this point, the bomb was pretty much towering over Kirby.

Supa Dreamlander: I can't play hot potatoe while holding onto an egg!

Kirby chucked the Star Stone right at the bomb, with the star returning back to him afterwards. The bomb rolled over to the Bald Clefts. However, before they had a chance to react, the bomb had exploded, popping like a large air filled balloon.

Supa Dreamlander: Phew..... It was just a weird balloon... Alright.. now.. uh.. where were... Hm?

Kirby noticed that the team they were facing seemed to be paralyzed.

Supa Dreamlander: ... heh.

Sig was appalled at the sudden use of an immobilizing move...

Sig: "Ah, anotha' one o' dose stones! Dat mus' be it! Dey's gots dem stones ta help 'em with fightin'! Dey're usin' da stones ta fight!"

Sig pulled a tiny camera from his shell, and snapped a few photos of Supa Dreamlander pulling the stone out and using it to freeze the boulder-like monsters in place. If this wasn't unfair, Sig didn't know what was. It'd be an easy case to present to Jolene...

"Still, maybe dose guys'ren't all bad... If'n dey can find some stones like dat, maybe I could get one, too..."

Kirby blinked a few moments before approaching the paralyzed rocks. He proceeded to pick up each of the Punk Rocks and tossed them out of the platform.

Confetti exploded everywhere as the audience went wild.


Grubba: We got ourselves a winner! SUPAAAAAAAAAAA DREEEEEEEAMLANDER AND COMMMMMMMPANYYYYYYY!

Supa Dreamlander: Mental note -- Don't do that again.

----------------------------

Jolene: Here's your fight money.

Jolene hands a sackful of gold coins to Kirby.

Jolene: Nine coins each, and everyone ranks up to 13. Now, if you'll excuse me... I must be going.

Jolene adjusted her glasses and proceeded to step out of the locker room.

Supa Dreamlander: Sheesh.. Items aren't against the rules, but I think I might to refrain from using that one for a bit... Hm... That's strange.. it's just us.. And Master Crash over there. Cleftor should still be kinda.. out for a while.. and Bandy Andy's never here...

Master Crash: I heard King K was BOMB thinking about leaving. I had the feeling he was wanted to BOMB move on or something BOMB-BOMB.

Supa Dreamlander: Huh...

Sig: "Not move on... Move back! We's goin' 'ome!"

Sig pressed into the Locker Room, a shortstack of pictures in his mitts. He flashed them into Supa Dreamlander's face, his shades seeming to scowl alongside his enshrouded eyes.

"Ain't against da rules, eh? Mind explainin' these, then?"

Kirby decided he'd might as well log onto the system again to get another fight over with.

Supa Dreamlander: Against the rules? The paperwork said we can use items in battle. Y'know, stuff you can buy at the souvenier shop, like fire flowers..

Kirby examined the photos a bit more.

Supa Dreamlander: Am I really clinging that much to this egg..?

Grubba's voice was a bit faint in the background. Said something about no switching or something..

Supa Dreamlander: I've got the perfect answer to that. However, it's gonna throw poor Sig off, since he hasn't had a chance to respond.... Tilde-key, activate!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Grubba: Fer our next battle, we got the Merciless Executioners, SUPA DREAMLANDER AND CO.! And... Those Gray Entanglers.... It's The Mind-Bogglers!

Pirahna Plant: Prepare to be ensnared, mystified, and devoured!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Grubba: And... The Big Bomb Boomers.... Yep, a fight with The Bob-omb Squad!!

Master Crash: Here we go BOMB! I have advice! Just give up now BOMB-BOMB!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Confetti exploded everywhere as the audience went wild.

Grubba: We got ourselves a winner! SUPAAAAAAAAAAA DREEEEEEEAMLANDER AND COMMMMMMMPANYYYYYYY!

Supa Dreamlander: We're on a roll, and it's not even time for dinner!

----------------------------

Jolene: Here's your fight money.

Jolene hands a briefcase of gold coins to Jack.

Jolene: 11 coins each, and everyone ranks up to 11. Now, if you'll excuse me... I must be going.

And with that, Jolene left the room.

Master Crash: It is quite lonely without King K around BOMB....

Cleftor: No lonely.... Him too weak.... Now him not here. Sound normal to Cleftor

Master Crash: You are in BOMB denial, Cleftor. I saw you weeping in that locker BOMB-BOMB!

Just then, Jolene entered the room, followed by a purple bat creature.

Jolene: Right this way, Sir Swoop. This is your dressing room. You're starting in the minor league, of course, as you've just now started your career.

Jolene was giving the newcomer the same talk she gave the others when they first joined.

Jolene: Go ahead and use the terminal, Sir Swoop.

An image of Grubba appeared.

Grubba: Well, howdy, Sir Swoop! Ready to get yer wings dirty, huh? There you go, son! Ah got a treat fer you: Yer first battle's gonna be against the Goomba Bros! Don't you worry 'bout them... They'll be a piece of cake! Just mop 'em up, OK, son? Hey, we wanna get the crowd fired up, so do a move where you do a triple flip and meow! You got any questions about the detailed rules, just ask the lovely Ms. Jolene, OK, son? Well, good luck, pard!

The conversation continued on for a bit. It was just the same stuff everyone else heard.

Since he couldn't reserve a match just yet, Kirby just on a bench, quietly cleaning the egg and humming to himself.

Grey: "Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhherrrrrrrrrrrggggggggnnnnnnn.......... My head...."

Grey sat up from his makeshift bed bench, clutching his head in pain. Every sugar high had a crash, and this one was especially potent. He stared at the locker room, his glasses doing less and less to help his blurring vision by the second. Everything seemed as normal... Bandy Andy was out, Master Crash was in the corner, sitting, or standing as Bob-ombs did... And there seemed to be a new guy walking into the arena. Some kind of bat thing.

But wait... There was someone missing.


"Eh... Where's King K gone off to, now...?"

Sig snorted. His photos having been proved false, he stood where King once did, now alone. Barry had already gone and applied for a job at the postal service. King had up and left, not even saying goodbye.

Sig: "'E left, da coward! 'E never even said nothin' 'bout goin' back ta Monstro Town... I 'spect 'e's taken all our winnin's fer 'imself 're somethin'. No sense'n tearin' up ova it. Maybe now Grubba'll lemme show those lugs what I can really do. I'm tired'a losin' fights."

Grey massaged his skull... It was too much for him to take in at the moment. Best just relax and get something cold on his head. Yes...

Grey: "Arg... Whatever... I'll deal with that news later. PK Freeze Al---!"

Grey pointed at his head, thinking for some strange reason it'd be a good idea to put some ice on his forehead, and promptly encased himself in a block of psychically-generated ice. So much for that.

Sir Swoop: Ummm... Hi guys. Yeah... My name's Swoop. SIR Swoop, I mean. Nice to meet you.

Security enters the room.

Security Guard: You. Yes, you, Sir Swoop. Time for your battle, bub. Follow me.

Jolene: Okay, security's here. Try not to get destroyed.

The bat followed the security guard out, while Jolene followed suit. Kirby turns his head and notices who was closest to the terminal. Unfortunately, it seemed like he was the closest.

Supa Dreamlander: Bleh. So much for getting someone else...

Kirby walks over to the terminal, and goes through the logging on process.

Grubba: Well, dog my cats! If it ain't Supa Dreamlander! Fixin' for a fight, huh? Hyuk hyuk hyuk hyuk hyuk! Hoo-wee! Yer gonna love this! Yer next opponent is... Rrranked 10 in the Glitz Pit... The Armored Harriers!!

Supa Dreamlander: Hey! I think those guys are in the major league, right?!

Grubba: That's right! Yer darn tootin'! Yer finally gonna make a go at the major league! We're expectin' great things from ya'll, so don't you go a-lettin' us down, now! Now listen up: in this battle, Ah want atleast one appeal to the crowd. And even though there's only two of 'em, Ah'll allow there to be three of you.

The screen faded away. Kirby had a big smile on his face as he turned around.

Supa Dreamlander: Guys! We're about to make it to the major leagues! Wooo!

Grey stumbled around the locker room, his head encased in a block of ice. Having been effectively diamondized, he slammed it harder and harder against the walls of the room in a desperate attempt to give himself precious breathing air. Finally, he stopped, considered for a moment, and pointed his finger at his own head again.

There was a muffled cry of something involving the letters P and K, and suddenly a small jet of flames burst from Grey's finger, melting the ice, drying his clothes, and leaving him covered in a layer of black soot. He coughed for a bit, and shook it off.

Grey: "Major leagues, eh? Does that put us one step closer to getting out of this hole? Anything to just get back on track again... This adventuring gig is starting to get tiring. You never know when you're suddenly gonna find yourself frozen in a block of permafrost."

He looked at the console display, which offered a quick glimpse of their foes before the battle.

"Huh. They look a little tougher than the rest of these guys. A little surprising..."

Supa Dreamlander: Huh?

Kirby didn't get to see what the opponents looked like. He shrugged, but didn't care.

--------------------------

Grubba: And now... today's main event! The major league awaits the 11th ranked Supa Dreamlander and co. But only if they can beat the 10th-rank powerhouses.... The Gundam Adonis Twins.. The Armored Harriers! First, let's get the Merciless Executioners in here, folks! SUUUUUUPAAAAA DRREEEEEEEEEEAMLANDERRRRR AND COMMMMMMMMMMMPANYYYYYYY!

"Whoo! Supa Dreamlander!"

"War-Grey-Mon! War-Grey-Mon!"

"Don't you dare lose!"

"Whoooo!"

Kirby, along with the others, walk up the stairs, with screaming fans cheering out for them.

Grubba: Hoooooo-WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! Hey, son! How're you feelin'?

Supa Dreamlander: Just perfect, thanks.

Grubba: Whoa, nelly! You heard the fella, folks! He's obviously itchin' to mix it up some!

"Good Gravy!"

"Iron them!"

"Are those spikes legal?"

Kirby's sunglasses nearly fell out as he watched two very large chunks of some kind of mineral, with deadly spikes sticking out everywhere but their faces, stomp their way onto the fighting platform. The two are wearing a pair of boots, one red, and the other green.

Grubba: Hyuk hyuk! Your challengers're real confident, boys! Yep, they're talkin' trash... "Gundam Adonis Twins?" one of them said, "More like Paper Dog-Face Bros.! .... And they stink!" And then another said "Ah bet they just write in their livejournals an' cry when they lose!" Um.. Yeah.. and then another said.. "Outi belly buttons run in their family! Stinkwads!"... And so on.. Yep.

Supa Dreamlander: Hey, what the bloody hell do you think you're doing, Grubba?

Red Adonis: WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?!? How does he know Mom has an outie? That jerk! We're gonna blend you up into a smoothie, chumps! And then we're gonna drink ya! Oh, and one more thing... Only smelly stinkwads call other people stinkwads! Understand, stinkwad?

Green Adonis: Simmer down there, Bro. You! Stinkwad! You're gonna regret opening your yap, pal! See these bods? Pure Gundanium. See these spikes? Yeah, they penetrate any substance. So, basically, what I'm telling you is that whatever you try will be completely useless. Think that over in the very short time you have left with a functional brain.

Grubba: Get yerselves ready to... BAAAAATTLE!

Supa Dreamlander: Whatever. We're gonna do it. We're gonna make the major league! We're psyched!

Red Adonis: Bluh huh huh huh huh... Give up now!

Green Adonis: Well, stinkwads, you're about to learn about our skills the hard way.

Grey: "Eh, what the heck... They're rocks. Even if they're spiky rocks, what can they do to us?"

He hadn't even drawn his bat, but he began focusing what little of his mind wasn't throbbing in sugar-induced pain in preparation for some kind of defensive purpose.

Needless to say, he wasn't thinking he'd be needing it.

Supa Dreamlander: I guess it is a good thing.

Kirby rotates his free arm, as he was still holding onto the egg.

Supa Dreamlander: Well, let's give them a beating in Fem's name, heh.

Kirby ran towards one of the Adonis twins. He then lifted his legs, spun his body around, and performed a corkscrew kick into an Armored Harrier. However, something went wrong.

Red Adonis: Buh huh huh huh!

Kirby fell flat on his face. It felt like he just kicked the wall. He groaned as he hopped back onto his feet.

Supa Dreamlander: Pure and solid Gundanium?

Red Adonis: Yep.

The Red Adonis continued to laugh as it performed a Rapid Spin attack. It wasn't going to make contact with Kirby, but one of the spikes managed to snag Kirby's cape.

Fortunately, Kirby knew better than to tie his cape tightly around his neck, so all it did was pull the cape out. However, the no longer caped crusader was thrown off balance, as he stood on one foot for just a moment. It was in that moment that the Green Adonis charged at Kirby and launched Kirby straight out of the fighting platform.

Kirby clung onto the egg as he flew through the air. Fortunately, he fell on his back, which kept the egg safe.


Supa Dreamlander: Ooooh..... I.. wasn't expecting that..

Grey: "Hm.... Jack! These guys are a little tougher than the rest!"

He tossed a glance aside to Jack, indicating that he had an idea...

"Watch very closely what I'm about to do!"

He stomped his foot, and a green glow surrounded him, as he released the psychic force that he had focused at the Adonis twins, encasing the air around them in an invisible cage of telekinetic power! Realistically, this did nothing productive in the realm of beating them, save for ensuring that they could do no kind of severe earthquake attack. The trouble was....

"These guys.... They're really heavy..."

Gundanium alloy was terribly dense, and it was tough for Grey to even keep a lock on them psychically. One of them would be bad enough, but two... He couldn't hold this for long. He waved his shaking arms forward, and the two rock-like foes rotated in the air, exposing the parts of their body that weren't covered in spikes. It was a clear shot, but it wouldn't hold.

"Come... on... You know what to do... Knock them out!"

He prepared himself. If Jack could hit them hard enough, Grey could release the lock on them in time for his attack to launch them out of the arena. They'd never win by knockout, so this would have to do!

Grey tried and tried to lift the Gundam Twins, but...

Red Adonis: Buh buh huh huh! Looks like you don't realize the situation you're in.

Both brothers fell onto their backs, and quickly got back onto their feet. Grey didn't even feel like his psychic grip slipped. It was more like cut off and gobbled up.

Supa Dreamlander: Grey! Those guys are steel creatures, not robots! They're playing Pokemon with you! Psychics can't do well against Steel types! And look in their eyes. I bet they've got a Dark attribute.

And with that, the Adonis brother with the green boots charged towards Grey.

Psychically weakened, Grey threw his hands in front of him, putting up a weak PK Shield that barely served to blunt only a small fraction of the force the hurtling rock threw at him. He bounced backwards and towards the border of the arena, trying one last time to steady himself before finally being charged completely over the edge. He fell flat on his back, unharmed but as per the rules completely disposed.

He sighed and didn't get up. It was sad, the team had enough power to bring the universe to its knees, but accidentally being knocked out of a fighting arena managed to let them get their asses handed to them.

And then, a realization...


Grey: "Oh... wait, I can fly, can't I...?"

Grey smacked his forehead in shame.
