 "Kris!" Misty Knight shouted, "Kris are you all right?"

 "Misty Knight what happened to Kris?!" River Wolf shouted to Misty Knight.

 "She used energy to do her secret power Aura Blast. Aura Blast is a special move learned by young puffballs every five years. When a puffball does it they don't know til the wave has blasted with energy." Misty knight explained,

 "Will she be alright?!" River Wolf asked,

 "She will be but will need time to recover." Misty Knight as she swiftly grabbed Meta Knight onto her back found Lily from hiding and said to River Wolf, "We need to run NOW the is the real deal over there. He will be paralyzed for two hours because he was to close to the proximity of the blast. Two hours will give us time. I need you to carry Kris for me. I will carry Meta Knight. Luckily he has smelt the flower before the blast hit but the blast will damage him that he might turn into a tree at the moment. We have no time to spare move!"

 The five now ran away into the forest of trees. Misty sensed something far away and familiar. Soon River, Misty Knight, and Lily carrying Meta Knight, Kris, and belongings finally have gotten 2 kilometers away by the time one hour and thirty minutes pass. River, Misty, and Lily were very tired so they stopped and made camp.

 "Misty is there another way for Meta Knight to recover without turning into a tree?" River Wolf asked panting with exhaustion.

 "Yes there is one other way but I am not sure if it will work. The other way would to have him strike Galaxia on Stellaria after he smelled the flower's pollen. The problem is I don't know if it works but it might." Misty Knight suggested.

 "Than lets try it as soon as he wakes up!" River Wolf exclaimed,

 "He will wake up about forty-eight hours to twenty-four hours, meaning a day or two. But while we rest let me tell you something. The thing that Kris killed a while back that looked like NME's Shadow aka Dark NME, I figured out what it was. I thought it might have been the real deal but than I found something on the ground. It belongs to a shape-shifter that belongs to NME's Shadow he isn't very tough though but has strong illusions to mimic others."

 "How can that be?!" exclaimed River Wolf, "Did Kris kill it?"
 
 "No, you were with me and saw the thing shrink. That was when it went to shape-shift into something else." Misty answered,

 "I hope it doesn't track us." River Wolf replied,

 "Well if it is than it is already here." Misty Knight replied, "Now you get some sleep I have some tracking to do."

 "Than who will stand watch?" River Wolf asked,

 "I will silly. I am searching with my mind using Life Sight." Misty Knight replied, "I sensed someone very familiar and it was an old friend."

 "Okay than. Good luck searching." River Wolf replied and dozed to sleep.

 'Now to find the friend.' Misty Knight thought.

 She searched with her mind to track everything that lived. She found the a space ship was slowly leaving Pop Star. 'Looks like Arthur has gotten his hands on another new ship. Let me see if I can talk to him.' Misty thought

 'I hope he listens.' Lily replied and dozed to sleep as well.

 'I hope he does as well.' Misty Knight thought.

 Mean while on Arthur's ship...

 "I still don't think River meant to do it Dragato." Arthur said to his fellow warrior,

 "I think she is still on the side of the monsters." Dragato replied,

 "Now, your satisfied with what I said earlier but if I learn that fate is against you and you are wrong or something else happens that what I said earlier stands." Arthur replied,

 "Fine whatever you say. Also I think you should give up your search on that Misty Knight or whoever she is." Dragato stated,

 Arthur lunged at Dragato with his sword. "Say that again and I will kill you. Meta Knight was like a son to me but if what you said is true and he did it on his own terms than I will accept it but if you keep telling me what to do I will let you stay on that planet to!"

 Dragato nodded and stood up when he got up he was a bit farther away from Sir Arthur.

 'Arthur do you hear me?' Misty mentally shouted.

 Than something went wrong. Sir Arthur fainted and sudden as he fainted he stood up again. With a small smile on his face.

 "Sir Arthur! Are you alright?" Dragato asked,

 "I am better than I was twenty years ago," Sir Arthur smiled, "home years..."

 "Are you sure?" Dragato asked,

 "Yup now go pester someone else." Sir Arthur chuckled,

 'Arthur did I startle you?' Misty Knight asked,

 'A bit. Where have you been for the last twenty years besides worrying me sick?' Sir Arthur asked,

 'Hibernation. I have been in hibernation for twenty years since we lost the war when we had only a few soldiers.' Misty Knight replied.

 'No wonder.' Sir Arthur said, 'Where are you?'

 'The place you told Meta Knight to go to before that battle twenty years ago was lost.' Misty Knight replied,

 'POP STAR!?' Arthur thought he would faint again at the idea at what he earlier said which was quote 'No other ships will be sent to Popstar, and if anyone from Popstar comes back here, they will be placed under immediate arrest. From now on... they are condemned to where they are. They are PRISONERS.'

 'Yes Pop Star why do you sound like you are going to fall off a cliff?' Misty Knight asked,

 'Well you see...' soon Sir Arthur filled Misty Knight in on what happened,

 'You confined the planet just because someone young and has many responsibilities?! River is young and learning. She has come from a tough past and just wants to have a better tomorrow.' Misty Knight mentally shout the reply,

 'You could say that...' Sir Arthur said.

 'Well for your information I am with River Wolf right now and Meta Knight, Lily, a little puffball named Kris! River is doing the best she can to use her powers wisely.' Misty Knight replied,

 'Did she really burn the army? How about Meta Knight how is he?' Sir Arthur asked,

 'Yes she did and she also burn three fourths of the monster army. Meta Knight right now is unconscious and has been injected with the poison of a yzarc flower, by a monster that calls itself Jorcoth Jim. Also there is a shape-shifter that was on the loose and was used by Dark NME to pretend to be Dark NME. Also I learned that Kris who is to be trusted is a shape-shifter as well. When the rescue comes to pick us up I will be the last one you pick up for an assurance that the others are safe no matter what you say.' Misty Knight said,

 '... Fine I will get you and the others back but not until Dark NME is dead.' Sir Arthur replied,

 'Are you trying to send us to our deaths? Or trying to get us to prove ourselves for all of us have done that many times over. Arthur, Kirby and Falspar are here to. They were trapped by a monster and now reside in a house with also a bunch of Mirror People for their land has been destroyed.' Misty Knight continued,

 'It is not me you need to prove to. It is the others that have lost lives.' Sir Arthur replied,

 'You better come when it is over Arthur.' Misty Knight replied and her presence left him.

 Sir Arthur sighed 'Now what?' he thought.

 Meanwhile back at Venom's House...

 "Did you eat the girl!" Venom Knight burst out at his brother Dante.

 "What!?" exclaimed everyone in the room.

 "I said it Dante and you heard me did you!" Venom Knight exclaimed,

 "All I said is I got hungry so I ate the wing of that giant chicken we caught last month." Dante replied,

 Venom Knight sighed, "Than where is the girl? This house may be filled with boys but where is she?"

 "I don't know. Now I am going to go out and see if I can find any food Dark NME or no Dark NME." Dante went out the door and slammed it behind him.

 Venom Knight was still worried about Wind. 'Oh where could she be?' he thought.

 The Next Day...

 "Good Morning Misty Knight!" River Wolf said that morning,

 "Morning..." Misty Knight replied,

 "Found your friend?" River Wolf asked,

 "Yes, but I will tell you later about when it becomes absolutely necessary." Misty Knight replied.

 "Okay than... Looks like the others are waking up... where is Lily?" River Wolf asked,

 "She woke up early and is gathering food. She will be back by the time these two wake up." Misty Knight replied,

 And as if were timing Lily came out of the woods with food in her arms.

 "Okay... So whats for breakfast?" River Wolf asked,

 "Here I have a this." Misty Knight said taking a medium sized fruit out of her bag, "This will do for now. Until than eat up."

 "What kind of fruit is it?" River Wolf asked,

 "A sweet one." Misty Knight smiled, "It is called a Papaya don't eat the seeds or the skin. When you are done give me the seed or store it in your pocket."

 "Okay." River Wolf replied, than skinning some parts of it and started munching on the Papaya.

 Soon Kris woke up to a blurry world in her eyes.

 "Good Morning Kris. I made you some new glasses I accidentally broke your old ones but these will work better." Misty Knight said,

 She nodded a thank you and put the glasses on smiling now being able to see the world again.

 "Meta Knight will wake up soon so get ready to Hold him down." Misty Knight said a few hours later, "It is almost twenty-four hours since he was knocked out."

 'Sorry about that.' Kris said,

 Misty Knight nodded in reply. Than Meta Knight woke with a surprise. He was struggling. Misty Knight let him smell some fresh Powder and than he got so raged he threw River Wolf and Kris to the ground.

 "This time I will end you." Meta Knight said than grabbed his sword Galaxia and headed to her at full speed.

 "No you will never Matthew." Misty Knight replied saying Meta Knight's real name

 This was just what Misty Knight wanted as she drew her sword Stellaria running straight towards him. The two clashed. A bliding light appeared and soon the battle was over. Meta Knight stood one place while Misty Knight another.

 "Misty what are you doing here? What am I doing here? What happened?" Meta Knight asked,

 "Welcome back." Misty Knight smiled.
