Chapter Text

Meta Knight was walking through the halls of the castle when Kirby grabbed his hand. Meta Knight stopped and let his tiny hand fully latch on before continuing to walk.

“Meh-knigh?” Kirby said, looking at Meta Knight. “Yes, little one?” Meta Knight responded. They stopped and looked at each other for a few seconds before Kirby said “up up?” As he reached his tiny arms into the air.

“Kirby, you are too big for that, you can walk.” Meta Knight noticed him getting sad. Meta Knight, having a soft spot for Kirby, lifted him up and wrapped his cape around him in the same way a bat would hold its child in its wings.

“Meh-knigh…” Kirby said as he snuggled into Meta Knight. Meta Knight continued walking, somehow ignoring everyone staring.

“Meh-knigh…my tummy hurs…” Kirby said, sounding quite sick. “Do you want to go home and lay down?” Meta Knight responded. “No! I go with you!” Kirby shouted. Meta Knight sighed and carried him to his place.

Meta Knight went to his bedroom and laid Kirby down. “Call me if you need anything I will be right outside the room ok?” Meta Knight tucked him in and then just as soon as he went to leave, Kirby started crying.

“What is it, Kirby?” Meta Knight turned around. Kirby was reaching his little arms toward him. “Meh-knigh!” He cried out loud. Meta Knight took off his armor and mask, leaving himself in a loose t-shirt and pajama pants. And laid down in bed.

Kirby snuggled into Meta Knight as Meta Knight put a blanket over him.
