Episode 80: Fight the Heat!! ... With Heat...??

When the summer comes, the heat is extremely unbearable, but when the humidity is involved, the heat becomes even more unbearable than extremely unbearable. Everyone was trying to wear the heat off of their body to 

"Oh my gosh, I can't breathe!!" Tuff panted heavily as he walked to the convenience store with Tiff, Iroo, Honey, Spikehead, Kirby, Fololo, and Falala. 

"I know, it is so hot!" Tiff complained as she fanned herself. 

"I can't wait to go to the convenient store to buy some ice cream!" Iroo said. 

"Can we get something more than ice cream?" Spikehead asked. "I want cold drinks too!"

"I want shaved ice!" Honey said. 

Tiff stopped briefly and said, "You know what, shave ice sounds so nice right now."

"I want shave ice too!" Tuff said. 

"Me too!" Iroo said. 

"Me three!" Spikehead said. 

"Poyo! Poyo!" Kirby said. 

"Where can we get shave ice?" Fololo asked.

"Umm... Kawasaki's..." Tiff answered. Everyone groaned. "But that is our only option." 

"Let's go, then..." Falala said. 

"To Kawasaki's?" Tiff asked.

"Sure," Falala said. 

********

Samo and Mabel were in Kawasaki's restaurant already to have shave ice together. "One shave ice, please," Samo said. 

"Hey! On a date?" Kawasaki asked. 

"Uh... no!!" Samo stuttered. 

"I predict he will keep teasing us," Mabel said. 

"Here you go! One shave ice!" Kawasaki said. 

Samo and Mabel took a spoonful and took a bite. "Ugh!!" Samo and Mabel grunted as the awful taste circulated inside of their mouths.

"How did you mess up shave ice??" Samo asked. "All you needed was to shave the ice and soak it with syrup!" 

"I used the ice from my freezer and the shave ice machine..." Kawasaki said. 

"Did you use the shave ice machine before?" Samo asked. 

"Umm... I bought it 25 years ago..." Kawasaki said. 

"No more explanation is needed," Mabel said. "I predict I will be sick soon." 

"Let's just go..." Samo said. 

"Let's," Mabel said. 

"How about some juice at my bar?" Samo suggested. 

"I predict that would be better than shaved ice here," Mabel said. They left together after leaving the shaved ice bowl on the table. 

"Aww... not again," Kawasaki said as he cleared the table. Tiff, Tuff, Kirby, Iroo, Honey, Spikehead, Fololo, and Falala all saw him clearing the nearly unstarted shaved ice. 

"Hey, kids! Want some shaved ice?" Kawasaki offered.

"No thanks," Tiff said. "Let's go get ice cream instead..." Tiff suggested to everyone. 

"Yeah," Tuff agreed.

"Let's do that," Iroo said. 

"That's actually a good idea," Spikehead said. 

"I want ice cream now," Honey said. 

"Let's go to Tuggle's store?" Fololo asked.

"Lead the way, Tiff!" Falala said. 

"All right, let's go!!" Tiff said, and they all exited the restaurant. 

"Poyo, poyo!" Kirby cheered as he followed after them.

"Aww..." Kawasaki groaned as he lost customers again. He never got used to losing customers, no matter how bad his cooking was. Just then, Kirby entered the restaurant again, inhaled the bowl of shaved ice, licked his lips, and exited the restaurant. 

********

Citizens of Cappy Town were not the only ones who were affected by the heat wave. The heat also affected Dedede, Escargoon, and the Waddle Dees. Waddle Dees all wiped their sweat as they cleaned and guarded the castle. Dedede was in a tub full of ice water and kept complaining, "IT'S TOO HOT!!" 

"Tell me about it..." Escargoon said as he was hugging the air conditioner.

"I can't take this heat no' mo'!!" Dedede said as he rose from the cold tub. 

"Sire, what did I say about double negatives?" Escargoon said as he pointed out his grammar error. 

"Donchu tell meh what tuh do!!" Dedede said. "I still have enough energy to whack ya slimy head out of ya!" 

"Oh, great," Escargoon said unenergetically. 

"Susie will know what tuh do!!" Dedede said as he exited the cold tub, put his robe back on, and headed to his room. 

"Sire! Wait for me!!" Escargoon said as he followed after him.  

"Susay!!! SUSAY!!!" Dedede called, or rather screamed, as he kept on slamming the call button. 

"What?" Susie asked as she responded bluntly as she connected to Dedede. 

"Yo! Susie! I'm hot!!" Dedede complained as he connected to Susie. 

Susie scoffed, snorted, and said, "No, you're not."

"I am!! I want something cold!!" Dedede demanded.

"Gee, I don't know," Susie said. "How about asking Kirby to use the Robobot Armor to scan the ice so it can transform itself into Ice Mode Armor and freeze you? I think that would do everyone a favor, including me, Mr. President, and everyone in Cappy Town."

"WHACHU SAY TO MEH???" Dedede asked in fury.

"Susie, is everything okay?" Escargoon asked. 

"The heat wave is not just happening in Planet Popstar," Susie explained. "It's happening in this planet, too. I have the AC on full blast now, but earlier, the energy shut down because too much people were using up the energy, so I had to create just enough for the next ten years worth of air conditioner or heater full blast 24/7." 

"Wow, can we have some?" Escargoon asked.

"No, then the ten years' worth will become ten minutes worth," Susie rejected bluntly. 

"So, wut should I do???" Dedede asked. 

"I told you," Susie said. "Use the Robobot Armor to scan the ice so it can transform itself into Ice Mode Armor."

"I don't wanna be freezed!" Dedede bellowed. 

"It's 'frozen'," Susie corrected. "And I didn't tell you to use the Ice Mode Armor to freeze you this time." 

"Donchu blame me! The heat is messin' up ma brain!!" Dedede said. 

"If it wasn't for the heat, what excuse would you use for being stupid?" Susie asked even more bluntly. 

"GRRR!!!" Dedede shivered in fury as his face turned red. "Ahh..." Dedede sighed as he started to feel dizzy after his face became too hot and fainted. 

"Oh, no! Sire!" Escargoon said. 

"Make sure you dump in his cold water to regulate the body temperature," Susie kindly explained. 

"Thank you, Susie," Escargoon said. 

"Well, customer service, I guess," Susie said. "I'm still good at giving advice."

"Well, I meant, thank you for making him faint," Escargoon said. 

"Oh..." Susie said. "Sir Escargoon, your perspective is changing greatly, and I'm very proud of that." 

"Why, thank you!" Escargoon said with an overwhelming smile. 

"Ookay..." Susie said as she was creeped out. "Tchau." Susie disconnected before he made other comments. 

After she disconnected, Escargoon thought of something. "You know... Susie might be right! If I can find the Robobot Armor, scan the ice, and turn it into Ice Mode Armor, I can probably make this place even cooler! Susie is such a genius!" Escargoon hurried, grabbed the magic key from Dedede that could open every door in the castle, and went on to find the Robobot Armor. 

Escargoon searched all over the castle, unlocking every single door in the castle. He finally moved on to the basement, where he was afraid to go down. "Oh... Waddle Doo! I need you here on the double!!"

"What can I do for you, Escargoon, sir?" Waddle Doo asked as he arrived. 

"I need you to come with me to explore the basement with me," Escargoon said. 

"Did you need to find something?" Waddle Doo asked. 

"It's none of your business!" Escargoon said. 

"I won't judge you," Waddle Doo said. "Perhaps I can help you find it!" 

"Well... Robobot Armor..." Escargoon said. 

"Oh, I know where that is!" Waddle Doo said. 

"You do?" Escargoon asked with his eyes sparkling. 

"Yes, but it's not in the basement," Waddle Doo answered.

"What? Then where is it?" Escargoon asked. 

"It's in Sir Meta Knight's tower," Waddle Doo said. 

"He has his own tower?" Escargoon asked. 

"Yeah, he created one discreetly," Waddle Doo said. "Come follow me. I can lead you there." 

"Oh, you're the best!" Escargoon said. 

"Yes, I'm the best!" Waddle Doo said. 

Waddle Doo led Escargoon to Meta Knight's tower and where the Robobot Armor was stored. "How did you know where this is?" Escargoon asked. 

"Whenever the Robobot Armor is summoned, it always comes from here," Waddle Doo answered. "Have fun!" Waddle Doo left the scene. 

"Great!" Escargoon said as he hopped on the Robobot Armor. 

Escargoon activated the Robobot Armor, and his heart started to beat faster in excitement. "Oh, this is so exciting!!" Escargoon exclaimed in delight. He carefully moved the joystick to control the movement. The adrenaline rushed throughout his brain as he controlled the Robobot Armor. "Oh, this is like the time when I first learned to drive!!" Escargoon carefully led the Robobot Armor out, headed to the freezer, and scanned the ice, turning it into Ice Mode Armor. 

He went around and shot ice lasers at random things to cool the ground and the air down. "Ah~~~ it's way cooler now!!" Escargoon let out a satisfied sigh as the temperature around him started to cool down. Then he got a better idea. "Hey! If I start cooling down everywhere in Cappy Town, cappies will probably appreciate it! If I do, I would be mentioned as a hero after Kirby, and I would get a medal of honor from the mayor, and then all the cappies will start loving me! I knew Susie had a reason to recommend this to me!" Escargoon skipped joyfully into Cappy Town, or the Robobot Armor did so. 

********

"Hey, isn't that Robobot Armor?" "Why is Escargoon on it?" "Did something happen?" "What's going on here?" the cappies asked each other as Escargoon arrived at Cappy Town with Robobot Armor. 

"Good afternoon, everyone!" Escargoon announced to everyone in Cappy Town. "I'm here to cool the place down! In a minute, this heat wave will be gone!" Escargoon pushed the button to shoot the ice laser around. 

Soon, it was way cooler in Cappy Town that cappies sighed in satisfaction. "Wow, that's so cool!" "Oh my gosh! The heat is gone now!" "Ah, the heat is finally gone!" Every cappy applauded as the temperature cooled down in Cappy Town. 

"You're welcome! You're welcome!" Escargoon bowed as they all applauded for him. As he bowed, his head accidentally touched a button and started shaking violently. "Huh? What button did I press?? Is it this one?" Escargoon panicked as he pressed the random button. Then the Robobot Armor began to run off fast and shoot lasers randomly. "GAAAHHH!!!!" Escargoon screamed as he lost control of Robobot Armor. 

"GAAHHH!!! SAVE US!!!!" the cappies screamed in fear as Escargoon lost control of the Robobot Armor and started to shoot ice in random directions. 

"What is going on?" Tiff asked as they walked out of the convenience store. "Oh no..." Tiff sighed in annoyance as she saw Escargoon and cappies screaming in fear and the Robobot Armor shooting ice everywhere. "Oh, brr..." Tiff shivered as the ice lasers that the Robobot Armor shot brought the temperature down too much that it felt like winter in Cappy Town. 

"Hey, Tiff, what is going o- oh my goodness, it's cold!!" Tuff said as he walked out of the convenience store.  

"Why is it so cold now??" Tuggle asked. "I thought it was the middle of summer."

"Escargoon is shooting ice lasers everywhere!" Tiff said angrily. "Cut it out, Escargoon!"

"I'M TRYING!!" Escargoon said as he started to click random buttons, but he accidentally clicked the flight button, which made Robobot Armor fly right off the ground and shoot ice laser across Cappy Town and the forest. "GAAAHHHH!!! HELP ME!!!!!" Escargoon screamed in fear as the Robobot Armor flew off. The Robobot Armor froze off the whole forest, froze the volcano, and it almost got to Dyna Chick, but Dyna Blade quickly took cover and blocked the laser with its whole body. 

"Kirby! We have to do something!!" Tiff said to Kirby. 

"Poyo!" Kirby said as he finished the rest of his ice cream. 

"Kabu! Send the Warp Star!!" Tiff called. 

"WAAAAAARP STAAAAAAR!!" Kabu exclaimed as he released the Warp Star. Kirby hopped on the Warp Star and flew towards Robobot Armor. 

"GAAAHHH!! KIRBY!!! PLEASE SAVE ME!!!" Escargoon said. 

"Poyo! Poyo!" Kirby agreed as he was flying along the right side of Escargoon. 

"Hello," Meta Knight greeted as he flew along the left side of Escargoon. 

"GAAH!! META KNIGHT!! I'M SORRY!!" Escargoon exclaimed. "PLEASE HELP!!"

"Click that button!" Meta Knight said. 

Escargoon clicked the button, and the Robobot Armor stopped gliding and floated still in the air. "Whew!" Escargoon sighed in relief. 

"Now, switch places with Kirby," Meta Knight ordered. 

"Of course," Escargoon said. When he was about to switch places with Kirby, Escargoon lost his balance and fell off the Robobot Armor. "AAAAHHHHHHH!!!!" Escargoon screamed as he started to fall down. Kirby quickly glided down and caught Escargoon just in time. 

"Poyo!" Kirby exclaimed as he caught Escargoon with Warp Star. 

"Oh, thank you so much, Kirby!" Escargoon said. 

Kirby flew back up, left Escargoon in the Warp Star, and hopped inside of Robobot Armor. 

"Scan this to melt the ice," Meta Knight said as he lit the match. 

"Poyo!" Kirby said as he scanned the lit match, transformed Robobot Armor into Fire Mode Armor, and used bits of the spark of fire to melt the ice. The warmth of the fire sparks melted the ice, but it did not make Cappy Town hot again, as the coolness from melted ice was cold enough to balance out the heat. 

"Ahh, much better!" Tiff said. "Not hot, cool air, this is perfect!" 

"Yeah! Way to go, Kirby!" Tuff said. 

Kirby, Meta Knight, and Escargoon glided back down to the ground. 

"You got some explaining to do, Escargoon!" Tiff said. 

"Yeah! What is the matter with you, freezing the whole town?" Tuff said. 

"Yeah!" "Tell us why you did that!" "What was wrong with you?" "You almost froze us to death!" all cappies ad-libbed angrily at once. 

"I just wanted to cool this town down to help you guys!" Escargoon sobbed. "I wanted to cool this place down so that everyone can be proud of me!!" Escargoon wiped his tears. 

Everyone stopped being angry at Escargoon. Tiff walked up to him and said, "Aww, Escargoon. I didn't know you were trying to help us."

"I'm sorry I took the Robobot Armor without permission," Escargoon sniffled. "It was too hot for everyone, and I just wanted this place to cool down."

"At least it was for a right cause," Meta Knight said. "But at least let us know next time." 

"Does that mean you'll forgive me?" Escargoon asked.

"Sure," Tiff said. 

"Yeah, sorry for overreacting earlier," Tuff said. 

"Yeah, sorry, Escargoon," "At least we know now," "Thank you for trying to cool this place down," cappies all forgave him. 

"Oh, thank you!" Escargoon said happily.

********

"As a mayor of Cappy Town," Mayor Len Blustergas said as the whole Cappy Town was gathered for a small ceremony. "I present this award to Escargoon, who stopped the massive heat wave of Cappy Town!" Everyone applauded as Escargoon received a certification.

"Oh, thank you! All of you!" Escargoon said happily as a drop of tear of joy ran down from his right eye and waved at the applauding cappies.

"Can't believe Escargoon did something nice for once!" Tiff said. 

"And he actually succeeded," Meta Knight said. 

"It's nice that some nice things are happening to him," Tuff said. 

"Poyo, poyo!" Kirby cheered.
