"Meta Knight! What are we gonna do??!!" Tiff panicked. 

"Keep calm" Meta Knight said, even though he was panicking inside. "There will be a way for us to save Kirby and defeat the two armors while keeping Robobot Armor active even after the end of the battle."

"We'll see if you can do that," Susie said as she sat back on her chair, lifted her cup of coffee, and sipped it as she closed her eyes. Despite all the rampage as Meta Knight and Tiff were avoiding the attacks, she was still in her peace of mind. "Wow, this is not made of coffee beans, but it has a really sweet and deep taste! Which coffee brand is this anyway? Maxim? I should buy more coffee mixes from here. This should be a great dessert."

"Kirby!! Please wake up!! We're sorry!" Tiff apologized as Meta Knight grabbed her and flew away from the rampaging Invader Armor and Robobot Armor. Meta Knight thought quickly as he exited through the door he came in and activated the transporter. "Meta Knight?! What are you doing?? You're gonna bring that into Cappy Town!"

"That is exactly my point," Meta Knight said. 

"WHAT??!!" Tiff freaked out. "You want Kirby to be misunderstood again??" At this point, Tiff did not care about Cappy Town being shattered into pieces again. 

"He won't be misunderstood this time," Meta Knight said. "Just follow my lead, and we'll be able to bring Kirby and Robobot Armor safely."

In the room where Susie set the Armors to attack, she swallowed her last drop of coffee before saying, "Huh, this battle is going to be interesting. I should go check." Susie pressed the button on her chair and switched into flying mode and flew over to the transporter. "I should have popped some popcorn if I knew that this was going to happen," Susie concluded before going through the transporter. 

"I hope you know what you're doing, Meta Knight!" Tiff said.

"I always do," Meta Knight said. "Even if things don't go as planned sometimes." He still felt bad about leaving Kirby alone as he did not predict Susie was going to bring Kirby to her side. 

"Let's see how you two handle it this time," Susie said as she arrived at Cappy Town. "Without using Kirby nor Robobot Armor's power. In fact, it's fun to watch when they going against something that has been very helpful on their side. If my calculations are correct, they would have much less chance of winning. Even if they do, they will cause heavy damage to their side anyways." 

Meta Knight flew all the way to the hills with Tiff in his hands. As they landed, Robobot Armor with Kirby inside and the Invader Armor landed around them, casting a huge shadow around Tiff and Meta Knight. 

"Ugh! This is horrible! We're going against Kirby and Robobot Armor!" Tiff groaned with her voice full of frustration. "Isn't this the first!?"

"It's all right, don't panic," Meta Knight said, although he was panicking on the inside. Things did not go as Meta Knight expected. He had to quickly think about it. "Call the Warp Star!" 

"Wouldn't that give us the disadvantage?" Tiff asked.

"Trust me!" Meta Knight said as he flew up in the air. 

"All right!" Tiff cleared her throat before she called for the Warp Star. "Kabu! Send the Warp Star!" she called more powerfully than before.

"WAAAAAAARP STAAAAAAR!!" Kabu exclaimed as it opened its mouth and released the Warp Star. 

The Warp Star would usually help Kirby out, but the Warp Star was now very intelligent that it noticed Kirby was not his usual self. Instead of helping Kirby, it helped Tiff instead. 

"Wha- hey!" Tiff exclaimed as the Warp Star picked her up. "What's happening?? I'm not used to this!!" Tiff started to freak out as she was being carried by the Warp Star as it flew around everywhere. 

"That will give you protection," Meta Knight said. 

"Oh, great," Tiff said. "But how am I supposed to attack?" Tiff asked. 

"Find the weapon and bring them back here," Meta Knight explained. "I'll take care of this." Meta Knight drew the Galaxia and his other spare sword. "Also, bring Sword Knight and Blade Knight here so that they can help us attack."

"Got it!" Tiff said. As soon as she finished her words, the Warp Star attempted to fly across the destroyed Cappy Town but was interrupted by Susie.

"Not so fast, pipsqueak!" Susie exclaimed as she blocked their way. 

"Get out of the way, or you won't have any hair!" Tiff threatened. 

"Oh, you want to play that game," Susie said.

"Yeah! Let's!" Tiff said as she pulled up her sleeves. 

"Interesting," Susie said as she descended down to the ground. Tiff descended after her. "First time I get to use my physical skills. I took some self-defense classes as electives during my undergraduate years. I never forget anything. This should be quick."

"Don't underestimate me!" Tiff said as she hopped out of the Warp Star. "Enough talk! Let's fight!" 

"Sounds good to me!" Susie said.  

They screamed and ran towards each other and grabbed each other by their hair. They aggressively jerked on each other's hair as they shrieked painfully. 

"GAAAAAAAH!!!" "AAAAHHHHHHHH!!" Tiff and Susie screamed painfully as they pulled each other's hair. This is probably the first physical fight between Tiff and Susie. 

"SO MUCH FOR A PINK HAIR WITH A DOCTORATE DEGREE!" Tiff insulted Susie as she twisted and had her lie on the ground. 

"SHUT UP!" Susie said as she kneed Tiff's bottom as her back was on the ground. Tiff groaned in pain, giving Susie a chance to yank on Tiff's hair and have her bang her head against the ground. "LOOK WHO IS TALKING NOW, YOU FEMALE DOG!!" Susie exclaimed as she pushed the back of Tiff's head so that Tiff's forehead can be pressed on the ground. 

"LET GO!" Tiff screamed as she swung her arms aggressively so that Susie might let go. She did not decide to until Tiff's swinging hand slapped Susie's face so hard across the face that created a huge slapping sound and turned her cheek red. Susie gasped as the stinging pain made her face vibrate throughout her face. Tiff groaned as she slowly stood up when Sword and Blade knight arrived at the scene. 

"What's going on, Tiff?" Sword Knight asked. "This is the loudest scream I heard from you."

"Moogoonghwa kotchi pieotseubnida ray!" Blade Knight added. 

"Don't mind me," Tiff said as she wiped the nose bleed off her face. "Just go help Meta Knight..."

"Right!" "Blight!" Sword and Blade Knight answered and sprinted to Meta Knight, where he was fighting off Kirby, Robobot Armor, and Invader Armor.

"You two are not going anywhere!" Susie said as she ran towards them. 

"You are not going anywhere!" Tiff said as she quickly grabbed Susie's legs, making her fall. As soon as she fell, she took this chance to grab a handful of Susie's hair and yank on it. 

"GRAH! YOU'LL PAY FOR THIS!" Susie screamed as she grabbed Tiff's hand that was full of Susie's hair.

"Kirby! Pull yourself together!" Meta Knight exclaimed. "It's me! Meta Knight!" 

"Poyo!" Kirby ignored.

I wonder how to make him remember again... Meta Knight said. Or maybe... this might sound crazy, but it might work...

"Meta Knight!" Sword and Blade Knight called. 

"You made it just in time!" Meta Knight said. "Hurry and do something about this one!" Meta Knight meant the Invader Armor. 

"Got it!" "Blight!" Sword and Blade Knight said as they jumped to attack Invader Armor. 

"Now, it's just you and me, Kirby," Meta Knight said. 

"Poyo!" the possessed Kirby replied as he controlled the Robobot Armor so that it can swing the punch at Meta Knight, but Meta Knight was so quick-witted that he dodge the swing just in time and use Galaxia to strike the Robobot Armor down to the ground. 

"Poyo! Po!" Kirby grunted as the impact of the fall made him fall out of his seat and bang on the sealed glass multiple times: up, right, left, down, back left, front right, back right, front left. After being slammed in the body by the sealed glass, Kirby weakly groaned as he struggled to get back to his seat, but with the fog of dirt that surrounded the Robobot Armor that was caused by the huge impact, Kirby was not able to see the inside of the Robobot Armor. 

Kirby would have reactivated the Robobot Armor in time, but Meta Knight opened the Robobot Armor and grabbed Kirby out of it, thrusted through the air, and glided into the forest so that the Robobot Armor is out of Kirby's reach. Kirby moved weakly, but he was trying to fight against Meta Knight. "Poyo...! Poyo...!" Kirby exclaimed as he was trying to make Meta Knight let go. 

"I'm afraid I have no choice, Kirby..." Meta Knight said as he took his mask off. "I have to do this. If this doesn't work, I'll think of the other way..." As soon as Meta Knight finished his sentence, he brought his lips closer to Kirby's and pressed it gently. 

"Mmph! Mmph..." Kirby tried to push Meta Knight away, but after flailing for a moment, Kirby's muscles started to relax and his hand soon landed on Meta Knight's face. 

When Meta Knight withdrew, a dark cloud came out of Kirby's mouth. Meta Knight quickly placed his mask back on and slice the dark cloud in half, diminishing it. Meta Knight quickly returned to Kirby to check upon him. "Kirby...! Kirby...!" Meta Knight called lightly as he shook him gently. 

"Po... yo..." Kirby groaned as he woke up.

"Good... good..." Meta Knight said as he sighed with relief. "Come on, let's get you back so that you can finish this once and for all."

When they returned, the Robobot Armor was still on the ground while the Invader Armor was still combatting against Sword and Blade Knight. Both of them eventually had to land on the ground to take deep breaths. "That thing... is too strong!" Sword Knight planted.

"Oh... jing oe... ge-im..." Blade Knight panted. 

"Good job, now let Kirby handle this," Meta Knight said as he arrived. 

"Poyo!" Kirby exclaimed in the Robobot Armor. He scanned Sword Knight's sword and transformed it into Sword Mode Armor. 

The Invader Armor glided towards Kirby and hurled, or tried to hurl against it but Kirby controlled it so that the Robobot Armor can swing its arm and sword to block every swing. Kirby then had the left arm punch the Invader Armor and used the sword to crash the glass of the Invader Armor open. Kirby did not think twice before he swung the sword again to slice the creature inside of it in half, and it diminished silently like a cloud earlier that Meta Knight slew.  

While this was happening, Tiff and Susie were on the ground, wounded heavily after slapping, scratching, and pulling each other's hair. They panted heavily as they had no more energy to fight against each other. 

Just then, the beeper on Susie's chair rang. "Ugh..." Susie groaned as she realized that the Invader Armor has failed. 

"I know that groan..." Tiff said. "You lost, didn't you...?"

"You keep that mouth shut," Susie said. "Don't make me rip your lips." Just then, a broken Invader Armor crashed right next to Susie. Susie did not see it as her face was on the ground, but she did hear and feel the Invaded Armor right next to her. She also heard it break. "Great..." the verbal irony sounded very furious out of Susie's mouth. 

"You'd better go back when you still have a chance," Meta Knight's voice taunted Susie. 

"I would if that wench didn't do this to me," Susie said with her face still down and pointed at her wounds. 

"Oh, and you didn't hurt me?" Tiff screamed angrily. 

"That's enough," Meta Knight said as he grabbed Tiff, threw her on her chair, and sent her back with the Robobot armor in Dedede's room. 

"By the way, where is Kirby?" Tiff asked as she finished cleaning the wounds on her face.

********

Meta Knight led Tiff where Kirby sat alone in the middle of Cappy Town, sulking. Tiff and Meta Knight looked at Kirby as Tiff gently and shyly smiled and waved at Kirby. Kirby frowned and turned away from them. Tiff and Meta Knight walked towards Kirby. "Kirby," Tiff's voice almost cracked as she called him to apologize. "I'm sorry that I blamed you for this..." Kirby turned his head away from Tiff even more. "We know now that you didn't cause this..."

"Poyo!" Kirby grunted angrily.

"Kirby, the only reason why I pretended that you did it," Meta Knight explained. "Was to protect you from Haltmann Works Company, but I didn't realize they will trick you that way so that they can pretend to be on your side." 

"Kirby! You did it again!!" the angry mob came after Kirby, Tiff, and Meta Knight. "We spent so many hours trying to rebuild this land!"

"Everybody, stop!" Tiff screamed. "It wasn't Kirby! It was Haltmann Works Company who caused all of this!"

"Really?" "Is she right?" Everyone adlibbed.

"We were also fooled the first time," Tiff added. "Their technologies are becoming even better that even I was tricked. We have to be more aware of these types of situations so that we don't fall into any more of these tricks again." Cappies scratched their head and fidgeted. "Now, I think it's appropriate for us to apologize to Kirby."

********

"I'm sorry we failed, President Haltmann," Susie apologized sincerely.

"Don't worry about it, my dear," Haltmann said as he went to go pick up one of the broken pieces of the Invader Armor. "I still have this."

"Isn't that a learning device?" Susie said.

"You guessed right," Haltmann said as he examined the learning device.

"I wasn't a guess, Mr. President," Susie said. "I just did not know we were able to afford such technology. It must have cost a fortune."

"I got so much money after suing some of the workers who were stealing machine parts from me," Haltmann chuckled with satisfaction. 

"I'm surprised you did not sue King Dedede yet," Susie said with a soft chuckle.

"He is still one of our biggest clients after all," Haltmann said as he dusted the learning device. "He is pretty useful when it comes to business. If he ever owes us any money, we can still charge him some interest and he pays back somehow."

"Just like what Nightmare Enterprises' record say when he was their client," Susie snickered. 

"By the way dear," Haltmann said as he examined her face. "What happened to your face...?"

"Oh, right," Susie said as she quickly wiped the nosebleed off her face. "Can you call the medic for me, Mr. President?"
