//------------------------------// // Prologue: Oops! // Story: Kirby Star Allies: Friend Hearts are Magic // by The Kelduo //------------------------------// Splash, zap, BOOM! That's the sound of me, pink puffball Kirby, and two of his other friends giving Zan Partizanne a taste of her own medicine, using water to electrocute her using her own electric drums. "Excellent strategy, Splash Sword Kirby!" The green-colored yo-yo robot, GIM, gave Kirby a thumbs-up. "The water and lightning mixture worked both ways, as with Francisca's water gun." Rocky, a yellow rock with eyes, stomped its feet, signalling that we needed to finish Zan. "I concur," GIM replied. "I recommend using the Ring of Fire Trap maneuver!" I giggled, "Oh, this is going to be so much fun!" I held my disembodied hands up in the air and formed a psychic ball, which Rocky jumped into while transforming into a Kirby statue. GIM spun his fiery yo-yo around Zan Partizanne while she was down, preventing her escape with its fiery trail. I moved Rocky over Zan before slamming him down on her, seemingly ending the threat. We stood triumphant, but Zan weakly called out to someone. "Help me... Hyness..." A robed figure in front of a dark purple heart turned and saw what we had done. I guessed he was Hyness. He proceeded to kick Zan out of the way... somehow. I mean, he was floating, for NOVA's sake! Also, that was just plain rude, even for a villain. Anyway, he went on and on about something, but I could only hear bits and pieces, due to him talking SUPER fast. I did manage to hear the words "Dark Lord," though, so I guessed he was planning to rebuild the heart to rescue this Dark Lord guy. "...Whatever. I'm going to stop this before it even starts." I formed a magical aura around my hands while giggling to myself. "Oh, I've always dreamed of saying this! Azarath Mentrion Zinthos!" I released a huge pulse of energy that surrounded Hyness, making him disappear. I turned around, expecting Kirby and the others to be amazed, but I didn't see them anywhere. You wouldn't have been able to see my eyes under my hood, but I was like, "...Uh oh." It was at that moment that Zan decided to wake up. She looked around, then she glared at me. "What have you done to Hyness?" I sheepishly said, "I teleported him to a place where he couldn't rebuild the Jamba Heart, where a group of heroes besides Kirby would bring him down. My plan was for Kirby and his other allies to destroy the Heart for good, but I guess I got a little too excited and warped them there too." By the way, Robobot veterans may know me as Esper, but I'm not Esper. Please, call me... NESP.
