Eastern Land of Dreams: Kirby Quest

[Neovereign]

>Fly between the two (avoiding the crossfire)
>"Hiiiiiiii~"
>Crash the party

> You fly between the duo and initiate a crash!
> Kracko is defeated... a bit too easily? Though 0² seems to have survived the move.
> "H-Hold up, hold up! Did it self-destruct?! I thought it was doing something else!" You hear a girl's voice from 0², as one indeed peeks it's head out from the top of him.
> She pauses when she notices you.
>_

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>Wave to the girl.
>"Hi!"

[Neovereign]

>Wave to the girl.
>"Hi!"

> You wave.
> The girl blinks...
> Then looks down at something she's holding.
> Then back at you...
> And again, at what she's holding.
> And finally, back to you.
> "H-Hey... Kirby?" She waves slightly, with her free hand. "Uh, let's get to the ground first."
> The girl ducks back in, after which, 0² starts to descend.
>_

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>Wave the others over.
>Follow.

[Neovereign]

>Wave the others over.
>Follow.

> You wave for Marisa and crew to come, then follow the girl yourself to the ground.
> Something tackles you off the warp star, before holding you up in the air.
> "Kirby! You're here too? Are you alright?!"

> Ah... Adeleine!
> That explains why you were only 90% sure that was Kracko...
> "Hey, back off him!" Marisa threatens, pointing something small towards her.
>_

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"Ado!"
>Smile at the fact that we're not the only dreamlander here.
>Notice Marisa.
>>Wave at her.
>Where is the 02 girl?

[Neovereign]

>"Ado!"
>Smile at the fact that we're not the only dreamlander here.
>Notice Marisa.
>>Wave at her.
>Where is the 02 girl?

> You smile, then wave over at Marisa.
> You think she's in 02 itself, still.
> "Sorry, sorry." Adeleine sets you down.
> "It seems like a friend of his." Alice comments, as she and Marisa hop off in approach.
> "So, this is one of your friends." The 02 girl jumps completely out of 02. "That's great. I'm Rika. This is my Evil Eye Σ." The girl pats 02's halo.
> "Still getting used to that..." Adeleine murmurs to herself.
> "Hm... That looks a bit familiar. Especially with a name like "Evil Eye"." Marisa comments.

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>It has evil in its name? But Rika and it don't seem that bad yet... Maybe it's a Dark Meta Knight situation?
>>Speaking of, ponder if any of the other Star Allies ended up here.
>"Rika poyo!"
>...Wait, why was she fighting Adeleine though?
>Look between Rika and Ado with an expression that does its best to convey "Why were you fighting?"

>Look between Rika and Ado with an expression that does its best to convey "Why were you fighting?"

> You wonder if anyone else has arrived here... But where would they be?
> "Rika, this is Kirby. Kirby, Rika. She has some skill in design too, and even making the things she makes work well." Adeleine introduces the two of you.
> "And this is the world savior who can copy almost anything thrown at him that you told me about..." Rika nods, looking you over again. "Erm... I was just getting her acquainted with fights and seeing how well her creations worked."
> "World savior? So, you're an incident resolver, too?" Marisa questions.
> "So that's what I was noticing..." Alice comments. "You can copy things."
> "Oh, right. This world is Gensokyo. It's a place of fantasy where friends and enemies alike fight each other with nonlethal means to settle disputes, or for fun." Marisa explains.
>_

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>Nod at Alice
>"Copy poyo!"

>"Gen...so...kyo.... Poyo! Poyo!"
>>Sounds like fun honestly.

>Point at Evil Eye Sigma:
>>"Poyo poyo, Gooey poyopo?" Look questioningly at Adeleine.
>>>intent, assuming our friends from popstar know us enough to get the general gist of what we're saying: ("Are they like Gooey, as in a nice Dark Matter?")

> You give a questioning gaze.
> "She calls them evil, but i don't think she uses them to terrorize others. Its like what they said: for play or disputes." Adeleine explains.
> "Yeah. That's surely all. I'm not trying to take over the world or anything." Rika assures.
> "Speaking of, have you seen any... other electric eye things? One that sucks people in?" Marisa asks.
> "I spied some eye thingy over in a cave or something nearby." Rika responds. "Probably something else too, but we were busy."
>_

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>Another curious look at Adeleine
>"Ado, Star Allies poyo? Others?" (Intent: "Have you seen any of our other friends?")

>Look over at Rika
>"Poyo poyo? Poyo?"

[Neovereign]

>Another curious look at Adeleine
>"Ado, Star Allies poyo? Others?" (Intent: "Have you seen any of our other friends?")

>Look over at Rika
>"Poyo poyo? Poyo?"

> "I haven't even seen Ribbon around yet." Adeleine shakes her head.
> "Uh...?" Rika questions.
> "Can you take us there?" Rumia asks.
> "Ah, sure. Follow me." Evil Eye S takes the lead, with Rika between its halo.
>_

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>Offer Ado a spot on the warp star
>>Rumia too if there's room. Shouldn't be an issue since the star's capacity is about 4 anyway.
>Follow

[Neovereign]

>Offer Ado a spot on the warp star
>>Rumia too if there's room. Shouldn't be an issue since the star's capacity is about 4 anyway.
>Follow

> Adeleine boards, followed by Rumia.
> You follow along,  being led to a cave.
> Within, there's something not physical blocking the way forward. On the other side, there's two figures darting about in rain. You don't recognize either between their speed and the rain covering them.
> "Tch. So she got onto this first." Marisa pokes at a piece of paper floating on this ethereal wall.
>_

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"Po?" (Who?)

[Neovereign]

>"Po?" (Who?)

> "Who?" Adeleine questions.
> "Reimu. She's the one who solves most of the big problems in Gensokyo. I do too,  but she's more capable... not really easy to get past her barriers either."
> "I believe in our new friend here. He seems full of power." Alice looks over at you. "Well, what do you have that can break a barrier?"
>_

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"Hmm..."
>Maybe if we had a Super Ability but we haven't seen much of them since the Magolor incident...
>>Though we do occasionally use Ultra Sword in Smash tournaments...
>>Do we remember a reliable way to get them?

>We could also use Robobot armor drills but we need Susie to get us one...

>>Do we remember a reliable way to get them?

>We could also use Robobot armor drills but we need Susie to get us one...

> You consider your options...
> You don't think you have any ways, but something within you hungers to try Ultra Sword, among those options.
>_

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>Give a knowing look to Adeleine.
>Draw a Super Blade Knight in the dirt.
>Point at the drawing, then our mouth.
>"Ultra Sword poyo!"

[Neovereign]

>Give a knowing look to Adeleine.
>Draw a Super Blade Knight in the dirt.
>Point at the drawing, then our mouth.
>"Ultra Sword poyo!"

> "A sword won't leave a scratch on Reimu's barriers..." Marisa says.
> Adeliene pulls out her canvas, quickly sketching the figure onto it, and bringing it to life.
> "What?" Marisa questions.
> "Interesting." Alice comments.
>_

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>Inhale the Super Blade Knight!

[Neovereign]

>Inhale the Super Blade Knight!

> You inhale the super blade knight, gaining the Ultra Sword copy ability.
> Though this feels limited. You either have just a few swings, or a limited duration to wield it.
> "Cool hat." Marisa comments. "But I still don't think a sword's gonna cut it."
>_

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>Make sure everyone is clear
>Slap the barrier with a giant tuna

[Neovereign]

>Make sure everyone is clear
>Slap the barrier with a giant tuna

> You make sure your friends (and Rika) are out of the way...
> Then unleash the Ultra Sword on the barrier... in the form of a giant fish.
> The barrier is cut cleanly, she destroyed...
> Marisa stares in surprise.
> "Impressive." Alice comments.
> The two figures appear to be an unknown red girl,  and...
> Shadow Kirby?
> Who spits off a star towards the girl.  Though she gracefully dodges it., sending a rapid fire if the same rain projectiles surrounding them at him.
>_

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"Shadow!"
>Start heading towards the fight

[Neovereign]

>"Shadow!"
>Start heading towards the fight

> You try to approach, but the rain bullets impede your path.
> "an evil you?" Marisa points a handheld thing again. "You look like you're struggling, Reimu."
> "Don't butt in. I was just about to finish him off." The girl claims.
>_

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>Give Marisa a so-so gesture.
>"Mirror."
>"Poyo poyo poyo." ("He's not that bad once you get to know him.")

[Neovereign]

>Give Marisa a so-so gesture.
>"Mirror."
>"Poyo poyo poyo." ("He's not that bad once you get to know him.")

> Marisa doesn't seem to get it
> "I think he means it's a friend. Though how do we stop Reimu..." Alice looks on.
> As if overhearing the conversation, Shadow Kirby simply inhales the girl upon closing in more.
> All of the rain stops and dissipates.
> "Well that was easy." Rika comments.
>_

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"Shadow. Hi!"
>"Poyo poyo poyo? Poyo poyo!" ("Can you please spit that girl out? Shes a friend of new friends!")
