Kirby Run Part one and Two

Part Two Chapter Twenty-Seven

As he thought about this, he ran past the other two passengers that were in the car. Upon glancing at them, he saw something that made him halt in his tracks.

"Please don't open that darn umbrella of yours!" the passenger that was seated next to the raincoat wearing one ordered "We don't need anymore bad luck befalling onto us!"

"Complain all you want!" the raincoat wearing passenger yelled, holding up an unopened umbrella "But when one of those chocolaty asteroids comes crashing down onto us, or whatever is trying to break into the train, I'll be safe behind my collection of umbrellas and parasols!"

A lightbulb went off in Kirby's head.

"Say," he approached the two passengers "you don't suppose I could have one of those parasols, please? Pretty please?"

The raincoat wearing passenger looked confused, but relented when they saw Kirby make puppy dog eyes.

"Okay, if you want some protection as well, I suppose I could spare one for you."

Fishing out a parasol from their bag, the raincoat wearing passenger brought out the parasol they felt most comfortable with giving away- that being a green colored one- and handed it to Kirby.

"Thank you!" Kirby said as he took the parasol. With it now in his hands, Kirby held it close, and began to concentrate.

(Please work, please work, please work...) he begged in his mind.

With a sparkle of starlight, the parasol began to shine, soon changing its color from green to red and white with a new blue handle and a star on top. Seeing that his attempt to obtain the parasol ability had worked, Kirby jumped with joy as he held the parasol high.

The transformation made the observing Space Doughnut's eyes sparkle with wonder. "Kwa-kyu... Doo!"

"What in the world???" the other passenger cried, wide eyed "How did you do that????"

Kirby didn't answer, all he did was simply giggle and resume running after Milky Way Cookie, Space Doughnut closely following behind him.

Opening the train door and exiting the car, Kirby peeked out to quickly look outside, where he not only saw all the countless choco asteroids that surrounded and flew past the train as it carefully moved through the field, but also immediately noticed Milky Way Cookie to the right, climbing up a ladder attached to the outside of the train car.

"Kirby! Oh! And Space Doughnut!" she added once she saw Space Doughnut was with the star warrior "You didn't have to come join and help me, but I appreciate it!"

"Of course! We can't just let you handle whatever this is on your own!" Kirby affirmed, holding up his parasol.

"Great! What's with the parasol though?"

"This is one of my copy abilities! My parasol ability to be exact!"

Milky Way Cookie made a small and delighted gasp. "That's one of your copy abilities?! That's epic!! But wait, you said your abilities come with a cool hat. Also you said you need to inhale something or use essences or whatever to get one, how'd you get this one?"

"I do usually have a fantastic hat, yes! This is just one of the few abilities that doesn't come with a hat. As for how I got it, sometimes if an object is in relation to an ability I can get, I can get the ability just by grabbing onto it and concentrating very hard!"

(A trick I learned thanks to many training sessions from Meta Knight!) Kirby added in his head.

"Ooh, well that's both great and convenient!" Milky Way Cookie chuckled, her brief bit of humor was cut short though, when the three of them heard a loud pounding sound not far behind them that reminded them about what they needed to be doing.
