Help From a Star

By: Mat the Brawler

Prologue:



[Mood Music]


In the far reaches of the galaxy a fierce creature known as Nightmare tried to take over
the universe with his legions of demon beasts. A group of people, not willing to grant him
victory, formed their own army and battled his forces. These warriors came to be known
as “Star Warriors”!

Only one of the warriors lived to tell the tale, his armor battered and chipped. The war
only delayed Nightmare, who used his demons as tools for business, selling them in order to
keep them at all stars in the various systems.

Not all hope was lost though as the lone knight took off waiting for a new generation of
young Star Warriors. He took haven on Popstar, working for the selfish king of a country known
as Dreamland. The knight, garbed in a blue cape and white armored mask, patiently waited for
a Star Warrior to arrive.

And arrive he did. He was an eight inch tall, pink little puffball, with eyes blue of the
ocean, red feet and rosy cheeks, named Kirby. Kirby had remarkable abilities. He was able to
inhale entire tables’ worth of food, among other things. He could eat almost anything, (though
he’s most fond of tomatoes) and fit endless amounts of items in his stomach. On top of that he
had a unique ability to copy the skills of whatever he devoured. There was only one catch; he
was awoken two-hundred years early!

As a result he was effectively a baby, and incapable of language. The king, known as
Dedede, took an immediate disliking to the pink puff, and mocked him at every opportunity.
Perhaps because the king was envious, of Kirby’s popularity or of his being a Star Warrior,
maybe he just found Kirby annoying, no one can really say. Despite this Kirby held no personal
qualms with Dedede.

That said the penguin king crossed the line when he stole all the food from Dreamland.
Kirby confronted the king and recovered the food for all of Dreamland to feast on. His
relationship with the king has evolved from animosity to a slightly more friendly rivalry. As for
the Knight he applied his own... unique methods to train the young Kirby.

Eventually, Nightmare himself attacked dreamland using the fountain of dreams. With
the power of the Star Rod Kirby managed to beat the evil business lord and peace returned to
Dreamland. (At least, for a while)

Since then, Kirby has made new friends and gone on great adventures! Only time will
tell what he will do now…
