Kirby woke up to the sound of his alarm clock
And after he clicks on a button to make it stopped, he yawns.
Then he looks out through the window and is amazed to see that Planet Popstar {well mostly Dreamland} is covered in white, fluffy snow.
And that doesn’t change his excitement when suddenly Bandana Dee burst through the door of his house and began to shake him.
“Kirby! It’s snowing! It’s snowing! That means we can play in it all day and all night! Are you excited?” Bandana eve asked.
Which Kirby replied with a nod.
“Well let’s start this day of fun with building a snowman!” The Waddle Dee said happily.
And so he and Kirby runs out of the house and into a winter wonderland.
Thank god their wearing their winter clothes, otherwise it would’ve been freezing cold.
————————————————————————————————————————————————
When they got into an area, first thing they did was building a snowman.
Even if that meant after building it, Kirby would eat everything from it.
Like the carrot nose and even the top hat for some reason.
“Wow, you really like eating a lot. Is that right Kirby?” The waddle Dee asked.
Which Kirby replied with a nod and a smile on his face.
After that, they make snow angels together.
Even though Kirby’s one looks better then Bandana Dee’s
Then after that they finish this fun snow day off with having a snowball fight with each other.
To them, it was really fun as they love to chuck snowballs at each others.
It’s basically what they do every snow day.
But what they don’t know is that this snow day, will be very different.
————————————————————————————————————————————————
Meanwhile Meta-Knight was just soaring through the sky trying to find some bad guys to kill.
“Hmmm, no signs of a major threat here. Could Dreamland be that peaceful today?” He asked himself.
But then he sees what appears to be Kirby and Bandana Dee playfully having a snowball fight in a area.
So he flies down it and confronts them.
“Alright you two. What’s going on? Why are you guys chucking snowballs at each other?’ The knight asked.
“Hey there Sir. Uh yeah, we’re just having a snowball fight. That’s all.” The waddle Dee replied.
“Oh, ok. Thought one of you was mind controlled by a villain. If you two know what I mean.” Meta-Knight said to the two of them.
But this did caused both Bandana Dee and Kirby to give him an annoyed look.
“Look sir. I know your a warrior who wants to protect dreamland and us from evil. But this is a snow day. A day of fun. Can’t you just relax and have fun for a little bit?” Bandana Dee tied to explain to the knight.
“Sorry Bandanna Dee, I can’t. Therefore I must return to the sky to look for danger and-“
But before Meta-Knight can finish what he was saying suddenly he gets hit by a snowball.
“Hey! Who threw that at me?!” Meta-Knight asked angrily.
But after receiving no answers and in a few seconds of silence, Kirby proceeds to throw another snowball at the knight.
“Hey! Stop that!” The knight said angrily again.
“Sorry, but this is the only way to get you to play with us.” Bandanna Dee said worriedly.
Then he chucks his own snowball at the knight angering him even more.
“Oh that’s it. If you throw another snowball at me one more time, I’m-“
But before Meta-Knight can say anything again, he gets hit by another snowball thrown by Kirby.
That was the last straw.
“So, you’ll want a snowball fight huh? Well then, {picks up a snowball} let’s fight.” Meta-Knight said menacingly
But luckily both Bandanna Dee and Kirby dodges the attack and proceeds to run.
“Come and get us, sir! Cause the fun’s just getting started!” Bandanna Dee said to him before he and Kirby run off.
“Hey! You two get back here this instant!” Meta-knight said angrily before giving chase to them.
—————————————————————————————————————————————————
Kirby couldn’t believe that he and bandanna Dee are having a snowball fight with Meta-Knight.
This might be the greatest snow day ever!
They were being chased by him through the woods while also throwing snowballs at him.
It was going great….until
While they were chasing him through an icy lake, this happened.
{Crack}
“Huh? What was that noise? {then looks under to see that he has stepped onto a icy lake with cracks on it} uh oh. This can’t be ok.” Meta-Knight said worriedly.
Booth Kirby and Bandanna Dee stopped running and sees that the warrior of dreamland is in a bit of a peril.
“Oh no, Kirby what are we going to do? If we don’t act now, Sir’s going to fall into the ice and possibly die!” Bandanna Dee said worriedly to Kirby.
So after a lot of thinking, Kirby makes his decision.
And so the pink puffball urns towards the knight and pushes him out of the way.
Only for himself to fall into the ice.
And the last thing he hears before being engulfed in the cold, hash water was bandanna Dee screaming his name.
————————————————————————————————————————————————
“Kirby!!!” Bandanna Dee said being scared of what just happened.
“Kirby!” Meta-Knight also shouted.
They both run towards the icy lake and sees that it has been frozen over now.
Now they must figure out a way to break the ice in order to save Kirby.
“Sir, what are we going to do? Kirby’s down there and is about to drown!” Bandanna Dee sad worriedly.
Then the knight takes a look at his sword and realises what he can do with it.
“Don’t worry Badanna Dee, I’m sure that my Glaxia will be able to cut through the ice.” Meta-Knight said to the waddle Dee.
“Ok, if you are sure.” Bandanna Dee said worriedly.
And so the knight tries his best by swinging the sword at the ice, hoping that it will break or crack at any minute.
————————————————————————————————————————————————
Meanwhile Kirby was struggling to stay warm and alive while under the ice.
He tried to swim but the coldness of the lake made his limb stiffed which causes him to start sinking to the bottom.
Even though he tries to hold his breathe, it’s very clear that a pink puffball like him won’t be able to survive both freezing and drowning to death.
All he wanted was a fun snow day but now he’s gonna die with his friends worrying about him.
Then despite his objections, his body just flat out gave up on him.
As he loses the last of his air and begins to inhale water.
And not like turning into Water Kirby by inhaling the water, no I mean he will drown because of it.
But luckily he doesn’t have to worry about it, as suddenly he sees something swimming towards him.
But his vision was kinda blurry to see who it was.
But thankfully before he gets the chance to black out, the person grabs him and swims him back to the surface.
————————————————————————————————————————————————
Bandanna Dee watches as Meta-Knight resurfaces through the ice hole with Kirby.
And he’s glad that their both ok.
Especially Kirby as the pink puffball begins to cough out a lot of water he inhaled with Meta-Knight helping him through patting him in the back.
But then they both noticed that he’s shivering.
“Uh sir? Is Kirby ok? It looks like he’s freezing.” Bandanna Dee asked.
“Hmm, it appears that he is suffering from a fever. Or even worse, hypothermia.” Meta-Knight replied.
It was true, as Kirby was breathing cold air, he was starting to turn blue and he was shivering really badly.
“Well, what do we do?” The waddle Dee asked worriedly.
“I suggest we take him home. So that he can be warm there.” Meta-Knight said.
“Yes sir. That is a good idea.” Bandanna Dee said with agreement.
And so with Meta-Knight carrying Kirby, the two of them head back to his house in hopes of finding a way to warm him up.
————————————————————————————————————————————————
When they got to Kirby’s house, the first thing they do was to dry him.
Which makes sense since he was wet from the cold water.
Then bandanna Dee found a match on the floor and lights it up. Only to throw it into the fireplace.
Then after that Meta-Knight wraps Kirby up with his blanket which was also mixed in with his cape.
Then they check to see that Kirby is setting to become warm and has stopped shivering violently.
“Don’t worry Bandanna Dee. Kirby’s gonna be alright.” The knight said to him.
“Oh thank goodness.” The waddle Dee said with relief.
But now it was time for him to go home.
But while he does, he sees that meta-Knight is still sitting on he floor with Kirby.
“Sir, are you not gonna continue what you were doing?” Bandanna Dee asked.
“No, no. It’s fine. I’ll just be here for Kirby, since he is a child after all.” Meta-Knight said with a calm and caring voice.
Which Badanna Dee replies with a nod before he closes the door.
It only took about 3 minutes until Kirby wakes up from being really cold.
He was still feeling sick but honestly he would rather have a fever other then drowning to death.
And what made him more surprised was that his mentors/friend Meta-knights as there too.
And he wasn’t wearing his mask.
“Hello there Kirby. I see that your awake now. Oh and your probably wondering where my mak go, well I took it off because honestly it was getting kinda hot sitting right next to a fireplace, if you know what I mean.” He said to the pink pufball.
But then he sees Kirby sneezing and coughing at the same time.
“Woah, woah, easy there Kirby, your’e just sick with the fever. But don’t worry it might take a few days for you to recover from it. So you’ll be ok, right Kirby?” Meta-Knight said to Kirby.
Who replied with a nod.
After that, they just mostly sit in silent watching the fireplace burning the woods.
Then much to the knight’s surprise, Kirby sleeps ontop of him which he finds it cute.
As even though he wasn’t planning on it, the knight was glad to know that sometimes there’s a time to relax from your duties as being the warrior of Planet popstar.
Then he places Kirby back on his bed and even gives him a kiss on the forehead.
“Sleep well Kirby, I’ll be back for some medicine. So just rest for a bit. Ok?” Meta-Knight said to the pink puffball.
But not before he walks out of the house and closes the door.
And after the knight’s gone, Kirby does a little smile on his face.
As even though he nearly died.
The pink puffball had to admit that it was the most funnest and amazing snow day ever.
