Chapter 130: Morning Spars
Sweetie Void was the first to wake up, then teleported to her house and exited it, making it look like she slept in it instead of in Kirby's. She wouldn't hear the end of it if someone understood that she slept with Kirby. Her sister especially would be a nightmare.
She didn't know, however, that Smily, her Haunter, not seeing her coming to her house last night, went to look for her and found her. Grinning, he then searched around and returned with a camera with which he took several photos.
Sweetie teleported to Smily and shook him furiously. "Where are the photos you took last night?!"
"How do you-? I won't tell you!"
"Where are they?!"
Smily used Lick.
It didn't affect Sweetie Void.
Sweetie Void used Glare.
Smily ran away.
Like any good ghost, he simply disappeared. But Sweetie could still feel him, so it didn't work. She turned herself into a ghost and hunted him down. The town thus woke up to a ghost fleeing for his (after)life.
Then, once everyone was up and had breakfast, Link and Meta Knight agreed that it was time for their spar.
The coliseum's arena was a classic square surrounded by a pit. A bridge could extend to allow the fighters to reach it. It didn't take long for Meta Knight and Link to walk to it while the bleachers were filled.
Really, if everyone hadn't seen this coliseum it, they wouldn't believe that this coliseum was built in less than a day. The Waddle Dees really were full of surprise (even if the ponies' (mostly the Twilights') magic helped).
"So, I won't use the Fierce Deity Mask," Link said.
Meta Knight nodded. "I would like to see its power at the end."
"Alright."
Both adversaries grabbed their sword (and shield for Link) and readied themselves while the Commentator Waddle Dee shouted, "Ready? GO!"
Before Link knew it, he blocked with his shield a lightning strike that still almost made him topple with how sudden it was. Sweetie hadn't been kidding about Meta Knight's speed. He already saw it during this adventure, and yet he still got surprised. He quickly did a swing with his sword, forcing Meta Knight to get away, giving up the pressure. However, Link barely had time to react again as Meta Knight flew around him and attacked from behind, the boy doing a roll forward to avoid it. Link then had to immediately put up his shield again to block a couple of crescent waves sent by Meta Knight.
Link decided to go on the offensive and charged toward Meta Knight who parried the following strikes. While Link wasn't as fast, his strikes forced Meta Knight to remain on guard to avoid being disarmed. It was like the boy just knew how to attack to best break the enemy's defense, and he didn't hesitate to include the shield and even his feet to gain an opportunity.
"Not bad at all," Meta Knight congratulated. "And I was told you never really trained?"
Link answered with a shake of his head. "Never. It came naturally as soon as I held my first sword. Then the rest came with experience"
"Really impressive. You must be a sword prodigy. However..." Meta Knight then avoided Link's next strike instead of parrying it and hit the back of Link's hand with the pommel of his sword, making him drop his weapon. Meta Knight then caught the dropped sword midair and used it to force Link to block with his shield while he used his Galaxia to swing from the opposite direction. Link was able to duck to dodge it. "You still have a lot to learn."
"I know." Link quickly grabbed something from his pocket and threw it down, revealing it to be a Deku Nut. When it exploded upon impact with the ground, it released a flash that froze Meta Knight. Link immediately forced his sword out of Meta Knight's hand and followed with a Spin Attack that sent Meta Knight flying and crashing on his back. "But I have some tricks to compensate."
Link pressed his advantage by charging at Meta Knight to attack him before he could get up. However, Meta Knight flew away. Link expected that and he already had his bow out, firing an arrow that Meta Knight destroyed. The arrow was a distraction however as Link took out his Hookshot and caught Meta Knight with it by the foot, bringing him back to the boy. But Meta Knight reacted by parrying Link's following swing and then kicked him in the face, getting his foot released, before he flew away again. This time, however, he charged energy and planted his sword into the ground, releasing several tornadoes that swept Link into the air.
Link quickly put on the Deku Mask and used the giant flowers that the Deku form offered to remain in the air while he dropped a Deku Nut at Meta Knight who quickly got away to avoid the flash. Meta Knight flew toward Link but was then taken by surprise as Link suddenly changed mask to take on the Goron form, grabbing Meta Knight with his big hands before he dropped with the knight under him. He then rolled away and took off the Goron Mask. He quickly readied himself as, in the blink of an eye, Meta Knight got up and flew toward him while sending a single crescent wave.
The wave was blocked, but Meta Knight then rapidly flew behind Link who quickly rolled forward like before. However, it was a trap as Meta Knight didn't attack and followed Link. As Link got up, Meta Knight readied his sword, making the boy put up his sword to parry, only for Meta Knight to swiftly change position so he was now at Link's right, then left, right again, behind, forward left, and so on, destabilising Link. Meta Knight regularly did fake attacks, constantly tricking Link into rising his sword or shield to parry or block. Link eventually did another Spin Attack to force Meta Knight away, only for the knight to come from above while the boy was still spinning.
Link was kicked in the head again, losing balance as a result. Meta Knight used his ultimate move, the Upper Calibus, and dashed toward Link before he could recover and threw him into the air with a first strike, then slashed him several times midair in very quick succession, then tossed him at the ground with one last powerful hit.
To Meta Knight's surprise, Link got up and seemed ready to continue the fight despite being visibly in pain. He was impressed, again. An endurance far above average for a kid, just like Sweetie Void and Kirby. He wasn't a hero just thanks to his sword skills.
Meta Knight liked this kid.
"You are already a force to be reckoned. With some actual training, few would be able to surpass or even equal you. Let me help you."
At this, Meta Knight charged back toward Link, this time not with the intention to fight to win, but to fight to teach. And so, the fight turned into an unexpected training session for Link. They still went all out against each other, but Meta Knight now made sure that each attack had a purpose to help the boy get better while lacking the intention to end the fight.
Because of this, the fight lasted for many long minutes until Meta Knight decided that it was enough, when Link started to get tired.
"Let's end this. Show me the power of this Fierce Deity Mask."
"Don't worry! I will make sure that nothing bad happens!" Sweetie Void reassured from the bleachers when Link took the mask but hesitated to put it on.
Sweetie's words worked. Link knew that he could count on her to protect everyone. He will still try to be careful.
With this, he put on the mask.
Upon seeing the Fierce Deity Link, Meta Knight immediately felt like a mouse before a mighty tiger and even got the thought of giving up the fight, something that never crossed his mind until now unless he happened to lose his mask. The Fierce Deity Link had no opening. Approaching him was at your risks and perils. No matter what Meta Knight could think of, all of his plans ended in failure and in his defeat.
The perfect swordsman. Perfection that Meta Knight constantly worked to reach.
Meta Knight thought of charging, but he finally decided to lower his sword with a sigh. "I give up."
That was the power of the Fierce Deity Mask. Meta Knight just knew he had lost without even needing to cross swords, if such an occasion could even present itself if a fight had happened.
Link took off his mask, sighing in relief.
"You are a wonder, child," Meta Knight said. "Allow me to become your master. Before long, you won't need this mask to fight the strongest."
Link had a big smile on his face. "I would be honored! Thank you."
With this first spar over, they went right away to the next one: Meta Knight versus Kirby, after Meta Knight ate a Maxim Tomato.
Even before the fight started, Kirby revealed his brand new Meta Knight Sword upgrade, making Meta Knight stare at him in interest, curious to see how much of him this upgraded Ability copied. With this upgraded Sword, Kirby had Meta Knight's Galaxia, mask, and a couple of small bat wings.
In a flash, the two charged at each other and clashed. After a couple of seconds, they then jumped away from each other and both sent a crescent wave that destroyed each other. While Meta Knight sent more of them in very rapid succession, Kirby ran around to avoid them, using an upgraded version of his recently acquired Ranger Ability, what he and Sweetie called the Noble Ranger, allowing him to wield two guns (and to wear a fancy ship captain hat), to fire rapidly at Meta Knight. Some shots managed to pass Meta Knight's defense and to hit him despite his best attempt to parry or avoid them.
Meta Knight quickly stopped sending crescent waves and focused entirely on parrying the projectiles before he flew away, charged energy into his sword, and planted it in the ground, sending several tornadoes. Kirby fought the strong winds with his own Tornado Ability, upgraded to Storm Tornado, as in he had a hat with a black tornado with black clouds and even lightning flashing. The impressive power of Storm Tornado countered and canceled Meta Knight's tornadoes, and spun all the way to Meta Knight who barely had time to fly away, but not before he was struck by a bolt of electricity coming out of the hat. It was Storm Tornado, after all, and in a storm, there was lightning.
Before Kirby could stop spinning, Meta Knight levitated a boulder out of the pit surrounding the arena and dropped it on the puffball, crushing him.
This took everyone by surprise.
"You kept the telekinesis power given to you by the Jamba Heart piece?!" Bandana Dee yelled.
Meta Knight chuckled. "The heart never gave me that power, but the one to duplicate myself. Telekinesis came with hard training."
"What? But we thought... But then... Why didn't you correct us?!"
"Because your assumption advantaged me for my next fight against Kirby. I wanted to keep my telekinesis a surprise."
At this, Meta Knight levitated several more boulders that he rained all over the arena as Kirby got out from under the one that crushed him. He barely got out of the way of the first one, then it was a matter of randomly running and teleporting around. After a moment, Kirby took out a stone hammer like the ones that the brainwashed Bonkers used in this world, making it the Wild Hammer, and spun with it to hit one of the falling boulders like a bat, sending the boulder right at Meta Knight. The boulder was sliced in two, the two pieces passing at the left and right of Meta Knight and continuing to the bleachers only to be stopped by a shield put up by Sweetie Void.
The arena was now a field of boulders, and Kirby quickly disappeared behind one as Meta Knight flew toward him. When Meta Knight reached Kirby's last known position, the puffball was nowhere to be seen. However, one of the boulders suddenly shot out and almost crushed Meta Knight between itself and another one. A few others repeated the attempt until Meta Knight flew away and sent crescent waves all over the arena to cut the boulders into little stones. Out of one of the piles of rubble came Kirby, in his Ghost Ability, or rather, Poltergeist Ghost Ability, the upgraded version that allowed him to levitate objects. He looked more thorn up than usual, with dark, empty eyes with two little lights. Meta Knight then levitated the many rocks and threw them at Kirby, pelting him with them from all directions.
Kirby turned into Metal to let himself drop hard, avoiding a lot of the rocks while receiving less damage from the ones that hit. He then quickly used the Meta Knight Sword Ability again to intercept Meta Knight who charged at him, the two clashing swords again. They exchanged blows at impressive speed for many long minutes until Kirby breathed purple fire with the upgraded Dragon Fire Ability (getting a dragon claw with wings hat), forcing Meta Knight to fly away and to get rid of some flames sticking to him. While Meta Knight patted himself to extinguish the flames, Kirby used his new Galacta Knight Spear Ability to get Galacta Knight's spear (and mask and small wings). Then, he rose the spear and called for a bolt of electricity to fall from the sky right on Meta Knight. Despite being still focused on extinguishing the flames, Meta Knight still saw the move, recognised it, and was able to move out of the way.
Meta Knight decided to use his Upper Calibur and charged toward Kirby, only for him to intercept him with the Meta Knight Sword, and the two clashed again. This time, Kirby was able to disarm Meta Knight, sending his sword flying and planting in the ground, which also stunned Meta Knight. Kirby used the occasion to use the Upper Calibur too, charging at the stunned Meta Knight before sending him in the air where he repeatedly struck him until he sent him crashing with a last powerful blow.
This last blow even destroyed Meta Knight's mask. The fight was over.
This fight showed how monstrous Kirby became. Once upon a time, Meta Knight was Popstar's number one warrior. Kirby and Sweetie Void struggled to defeat him. But now, Kirby didn't even have to use all of his powers to defeat him. He didn't even need to use the Stella Knight form and its Super Abilities.
Kirby really wasn't in the same league anymore, like Sweetie Void.
Speaking of, it was her turn to spar against Galacta Knight. Well, after a quick fight between Meta Knight and Dark Meta Knight, that Meta Knight won no problem to Dark Meta Knight's frustration.
"Let's limit ourselves to the minimum. We don't want to destroy the coliseum. And the town. And the planet," Sweetie Void said when she faced Galacta Knight who agreed with a nod.
Galacta Knight took his Light form (his most powerful form currently). Sweetie Void's mane, tail, and eyes turned into pure darkness. And the two charged at each other. There was a clash between Galacta's spear and one of Sweetie's swords, a shockwave pushed everyone against their sits, and Galacta was almost propelled into the bleachers, stopping himself midair just in time. Galacta then called several waves of lightning that struck all over the arena before he rained sword-shaped beams. Sweetie countered the beams with her own beams before the two opened a rift in the fabric of space, both calling a space beam. The two beams collided, creating a huge explosion that annihilated the arena and forced everyone against their sits again.
In the cloud of smokes that followed, the silhouettes of Sweetie Void and Galacta Knight could be seen moving around very rapidly, clashing repeatedly. Each clash was followed by a small shockwave that pushed some of the cloud away, allowing everyone to eventually see what was going on again. With a big boum! Galacta Knight was then sent crashing into what remained of the arena. Sweetie Void went after him like a meteor, causing even more destruction.
The two flew around a bit, then Sweetie sent her ten swords to attack Galacta Knight who was sending projectiles of fire and ice. The swords destroyed some of the projectiles as they flew, then they assaulted Galacta from all directions. Galacta had all the difficulties to defend himself against all of them despite having both a weapon and a shield. Sweetie's speed and magical manipulation at using her weapons had only gotten greater since she ascended. Even Meta Knight couldn't keep up anymore. Sweetie firing dark beams from her horn and from the air didn't help.
Between two parries, Galacta Knight struck Sweetie Void with lightning, stopping her assault momentarily and allowing him some respite to charge at her and attack closely. Sweetie still recovered in time to block the spear with a shield, then countered with a punch that Galacta barely blocked with his shield. The shield was destroyed, and Galacta was sent flying almost to the bleachers, only stopped by Sweetie Void teleporting in his path before punching him again so he crashed in what remained of the arena. Then, she opened a rift that fired a powerful space beam that created a huge explosion.
When everything cleared, Galacta Knight was standing shakily, leaning on his planted spear.
"I give up..."
"It wasn't really satisfying not fighting you at your best. How about we do it again on a deserted planet once we have time?" Sweetie Void proposed.
"Yes. I agree. It still was a nice fight. I wouldn't mind doing more of them. Gonna keep my wits sharp."
Sweetie Void nodded.
In the end, the results of the spars didn't surprise anyone. Still, the heroes not from the Dream Universe were glad to see how powerful Meta Knight and Galacta Knight were, even if Galacta didn't show everything he could do. Elfilin couldn't stay in place with how the fights made him excited, and he was asking thousands of question to the fighters.
With this, the fights were over, and the heroes could return to their adventure. After some quick goodbyes to the ones that remained behind to continue building the town and fight off Gorimondo (who continued to attack the town this morning), the group returned to Wondaria and climbed back inside the Lor to be transported to their next destination that Elfilin happily described.
"Winter Horns is like the name says. It's like it's always winter there! It's always snowing! I love playing with the snow!"
"We return to the classic then," Sweetie Void said. "Good old snow area. At least, I will be able to keep us warm."
"Be careful. Remember that Dedede is there," Meta Knight reminded.
"Don't worry, we got this. No matter how many time Dedede gets brainwashed or whatever, he always lose in the end. This won't be different. And you really think he will be a problem against all of us at once?"
"The warning was more for your friends. Most of them won't stand a chance against him, and he could attack anytime."
DK pounded his fists together. "It's not a fat penguin that will scare me. Let him come."

Called it!!!
Also you going to reference magaloor’s quest in
Return to return to dreamland(Dreamland deluxe)
11559082
Not much. I will edit something back in A Sweetie Dreamland but that will be all for now. Maybe there will be other references here or there, but I don't think so.
Might be a useful trick later on when Two Planets Approach the Roche Limit.
(Fun fact: by the time the track's name is actually a real threat it's been replaced by something else)
Maybe "afterlife" would be a better pun.
Were you trying to reference Meta Knight's Smash Bros victory quote?
This reminds me a lot of the Undyne fight in Undertale.
I think he's called the Commentator Waddle Dee.
Sweetie Void in Soul Mode is equal to Arceus, so I assume this is ignoring that power.
I wonder why I did not add 2+2 before... Sweetie transformed in a God of Destruction from Dragon Ball... Are we sure she don't have some Saiyajin genes that increase her Zenkai Boost? Maybe a long time ago a Saiyajin visited Equestria.
Leaving that aside, I understand Sweetie unafected by 'licking' by her level of power but one thing is being unnafected and other thing is to feel nothing, after all if someone lick you even if it does nothing it feels weird and you could feel uncomfortable
11559105
Yeah. Probably, at the origin, the fight was supposed to happen as Popstar approached, making it a fight with a time limit.
11559114
Thanks.
Ah, I forgot that it was what he says. Pure coincidence.
But instead of throwing spears, Meta Knight is the weapon, lol.
Right. Thanks.
11559155
Yep.
11559340
It would have to be a very long time ago, because Celestia and Luna sure don't remember such a visit.
Well, it made her annoyed at Smily. There is already that. Why do you think she Glared at him?
Thanks for the confirmation that Tabuu, Dharkon, and Galeem are showing up in this story. Earlier you hinted. Now? Arigatou gozaimasu for the confirmed fact they'll show up.
Good fights! Also, I believe you did mention it before but to confirm: do you Know Fire emblem Heroes? Using that Game's Canon would pretty Much Erase the Need to do Multiple Fire emblem Arcs for every Game represented on Smash (but don't get me Wrong, I still would like Each Game's World to have it’s Spotlight. Fire emblem's Stories are too good to waste like that.)
11559917
Yes, I know Fire Emblem Heroes, but I don't think that I will use it.
11559974
Oh well, it’s Fine then.
11559407
Did Sweetie not glare at Smiley because he was a bad ghost?
Also, is not like the princesses are omniscient and know everything that happen, more so when they are chained to a desk and forced to do paperwork for hours or listen to whinny nobles offended because a commoner dared to look at them and not kiss where they walk
11560339
Both.
A sayian arriving on the planet would be remarked. They aren't really known for being discreet.
I’ve thought about how Kirby’s Stella Knight would effect some of the Upgrades. Like would it give Meta Knight Sword Meta’s actual wings or Dimensional Cape? Or would it give Galacta Knight Sword his Light and Dark forms?
I’ve also been curious about Sweetie’s base power after she gained her Alicorn form after the Alicorn of the Void incident. She’s clearly stronger than she was as a Unicorn, but by how much specifically? Like does she match the Soul Form that she used against Kirby before Alicorn of the Void happened?
Also, Sweetie’s Lower God status is without Alicorn of the Void. Is it the same with Kirby without Stella Knight?
11560770
This is something to think about.
Her base power is effectively more or less equal to the power her Soul had when she was an unicorn. When including the boosts (like when her mane and tail turn into darkness), she can become several times more powerful.
Lower Average.
Kirby's Stella Knight is included in his status.
11560383
Saiyajins are part monkeys, so maybe this Saiyajin was part Bonobo? Hole I see, Hole I full, and that was the reason it was not known.
Also, a question, could you consider the Mario Movie something that already happened, something that is going to happen in the future or something that is not going to happen?
11560809
So is Base Kirby still a God or is he only a God with Stella Knight?
11560847
Not going to happen.
Lower God.
11560922
The Mario movie is a alternate reality like the new sonic movies so I can see those not being cannon..good call.
11565373
Mario doesn't really have a canon, especially with the extra layer of fictionality we've been instructed to assume.
