Kirby Run Part one and Two

Part Two Chapter Twenty-Five

Dedede's brow furrowed. "Yes, what about that?"

"Well, that happened because Prune Juice Cookie snuck a bit of a speed boosting potion in one of your sodas... and that made me lose a bet..."

"WAIT, he did that?? And you lost a bet because of it?? Pffft!" Marx leaned back and started guffawing very loudly "Bahahahaha!!"

Marx was so loud, Adeleine and Kirby noticed, both of them being disturbed since they were trying to tuck Elfilin in.

Magolor watched Marx with an annoyed expression, while Dedede just looked completely astonished. "Huh, so that's why I suddenly had super speed."

Magolor scratched his ears. "Sorry I had to bring it up."

"Nah it's fine. Little disappointing to hear I only got the placement I did thanks to a supplement of sorts, but hey, I probably would have gotten last if he hadn't done that, so I'm cool with it."

"Of course you are..." Magolor rolled his eyes.

"Is that why you surged off angrily today? To confront him about that?" Dedede questioned.

"(*Sigh*) yes, but I wish I hadn't..."

Dedede looked at Magolor in a stern way. "What happened?"

Magolor was about to speak, but was interrupted by Marx, who was still guffawing, and quite loudly at that.

"Grr, Marx!" Magolor angrily said, flicking the jester on the forehead, causing him to finally stop.

"Wah! Hey!!!" the jester exclaimed "What was that for???"

"Because this concerns you too, and because you're being annoying!" Magolor told him, turning to face Dedede "(*Sigh*) you see, Dedede..."

While those three were chatting, Adeleine and Kirby resumed tucking Elfilin into bed. Magolor had already removed the invisibility spell from Spelltwister Cookie's staff so Kirby could see it before he climbed into bed, which upon seeing, he gently picked up the staff and brought it to the end of the bed.

"Hi Spelltwister Cookie!" he said quietly to the staff. In his mind, he heard Spelltwister Cookie yawn.

Mm? Oh, hello Kirby. Welcome back, how was your day?

"It was great! I'll tell you more later though, lemme go help tuck Elfilin into bed."

Sure thing, take your time.

Setting the staff down on the end of the bed, Kirby crawled back up to the pillows and sat upright as Adeleine got Elfilin all cozy in the blankets. Kirby helped by fluffing up his pillow.

"Alright, that comfy enough?" Adeleine asked as she finished covering up Elfilin.

Elfilin nuzzled up to the pillow Kirby had fluffed up for him. "Mmhmm, thank you Adeleine."

"You're welcome buddy." she smiled.

"Ready for bed Elfilin?" asked Kirby.

Elfilin nodded, which made Kirby smile. "I'm proud of you tonight! Sharing a bit of your past with others, that was really big of you!"

Elfilin's brow furrowed. "Should I have shared more though? I don't think I shared enough..."

"What do you mean? You shared a lot about yourself." Adeleine said to him. "What else would you need to share?"

"Well, I didn't tell them about Fecto Elfilis or what they did."

"Oh. Right, that thing."

Adeleine looked to the side, she had almost forgotten that Elfilin had told her and the other Star Allies that he was one half of what was called "The Ultimate life form." Which, did confuse her a lot when she first heard about it.
