Kirby and the Purple Butterfly Chapter 2

It had been a few days since Rifty arrived in Dream Land on that fateful night, snow had coated the planet of Pop Star like a nice soft and delicious layer of frosting on a cake. It was very chilly that day, but of course, nothing can stop Kirby. He was getting Rifty ready for the day by bundling them up in a nice and fluffy winter coat with fur along its edges and some cute looking earmuffs. Rifty was quite startled by this, as they hadn’t realized what was happening until Kirby started preparing them! 

“Ehhhh??? Kirby what are you doing?” they asked while squirming around, attempting to get out of the fluffy yet restrictive coat. 

“Hold still!” shouted Kirby. “It is very cold out today! And I wouldn’t want you catching a fever out there!”

Rifty was confused by this. “But why would I need to wear all of this? Is something happening today?” they asked curiously.

Kirby nodded with excitement. “Yes! Today I will be taking you to see my best friends! I think you would love to meet them!” he explained.

This news had startled Rifty a little. “T-Today?! Are you sure? I don’t know if I’m ready to meet them yet!” they exclaimed with worry.

“I’m sure you will be fine, my friends are quite nice! I’m sure they would be excited to meet you!” Kirby said with reassurance as he wrapped his scarf around himself, to which Rifty was a little humored by. Kirby made them wear all of this getup yet he only wore a scarf!

The little purple puffball laughed a little to herself. “Ok, but are you sure I have to wear all of this on the way there? I think I’ll be okay on my own.”

“I just don’t want you to freeze out there!” Kirby explained. “You looked like you were about to when I found you out there in the snow!”

“Ok, I think I see your point. If you need me to wear this, then I will happily do it for you!” Rifty responded with a cheery smile on their face. Kirby happily returned the favor with their own smile as they continued to bundle up their friend before setting off to Castle Dedede.

Kirby quickly took Rifty across almost all of Dream Land to get to Castle Dedede, which is located somewhere near one of Pop Star’s mountain ranges.

Rifty was a little worried about where they were going, feeling intimidated by the tall castle. “Uhh, Kirby, where exactly are you taking me to see your friends?” they asked nervously.

”Oh, I’m taking you to Castle Dedede to meet the king of Dream Land!” Kirby explained casually. Rifty then quickly skidded to a halt. “Eh!? The king of Dream Land? Meeting me?! B-but, I…” Rifty was quite startled by this, they had only been in Dream Land for a few days and they were about to meet the king! What an honor that was!

“Of course!” Kirby replied. “King Dedede has been my friend for years! I’m sure he’ll be glad to meet you!”

”Ooh, I better make a good first impression.” Rifty said nervously to themselves.

Kirby and Rifty entered the big castle, being greeted by some Waddle Dees, who helped Kirby and Rifty take off their winter clothing to put somewhere safe. Some of the Waddle Dees looked at Rifty with curiosity. It’s not often that another one of Kirby’s species comes to visit.

The Waddle Dees led Kirby and Rifty over to the throne room, to which they saw Dedede sitting in his throne. Luckily, he was not surrounded by papers like he was a few days ago. Today, he was happily sitting in his chair reading a book about what it takes to be a good and noble king.

“Rifty quick! Hide behind me!” Kirby whispered with a mischievous plan in mind.

“O-okay.” Rifty said as they quietly shuffled behind Kirby.

Dedede looked up from his book. 

“Kirby! What brings you here today? Are you still gonna be doing that picnic?” asked the great king.

“Even better! I have something special to show you!” exclaimed Kirby. “Look!” He went off to the side to present Rifty to Dedede.

“GAH! TWO KIRBIES?! Did you just multiply?!”

Dedede was shocked! Just before him were now two little puffballs! As much as he loved Kirby, there was no way that he would be able to handle two of them now!

“Eek!” Rifty quickly hopped back to behind Kirby, startled by Dedede’s surprised reaction.

“Dedede! Don’t be scared! This is my new friend Rifty! I met him a few days ago and wanted them to meet you!”

Kirby then looked behind them to see Rifty shivering and quaking in their figurative boots.

Dedede opened his eyes again, getting a much better look at Rifty. He hopped out of his throne and walked over to the two of them.

“Y-Your majesty! M-my name is Rifty! I’m very fortunate to meet you!” Rifty said while bowing and saluting King Dedede in a quick sweat.

Dedede then shot his signature grin at Rifty, his ego inflating quite a bit.

“Heh heh heh! Get a load of this little dude!” He roared as he graciously shook Rifty’s hand with his big mitten hands. “The name’s Dedede, the name you should know! It’s a pleasure meetin’ ya Rifty!” Dedede gave Rifty a nice couple of pats on the head, he found the little one quite endearing. “C’mon Kirby why can’t you be as respectful to your king as ol’ Rifty is ‘ere?” teased Dedede. “Your little friend is such a cutie he is!”

Rifty was quite surprised by this sudden approval, to think the king of the land was able to warm up to them so easily! They were almost as pink as Kirby was in the moment, giggling to themselves.

Kirby just shook his head, of course Dedede would like Rifty, especially if Rifty treated him with such a level of respect.

Later on, Kirby was leading Rifty over to the Halberd.

Rifty was so energetic! “I can’t believe I got to meet and befriend the king! He was so nice to me!” they exclaimed cheerfully as they leaped up and down behind Kirby.

Kirby was very happy that Dedede was able to get along with Rifty so well, but he was very curious to see how Meta Knight and Rifty would get along.

“Where are we going next, Kirby?”

“We’re about to meet Sir Meta Knight! He’s one of Dedede’s most trusted companions and another one of my close friends!”

‘Wow! Kirby is friends with a lot of important people!’ Rifty thought to themselves as Kirby brought them to the entrance of the Halberd’s Hangar.

Meta Knight was overseeing the maintenance of his ship, it was imperative that it was checked over before the extremely chilling winter days came forth to ensure excellent performance.

“Hiya Meta Knight!” Kirby yelled.

Meta Knight swooped down from his perch using his bat wings to meet up with Kirby.

“Greetings Kirby, did you need me for something?”

“Yes! I wanted you to meet a new friend I made recently!”

“Oh, a new friend?”

“Yup! I want you to meet Rifty!”

Kirby moved over to the side again to present Rifty to Meta Knight.

“Hi!” said Rifty, who seemed to be very intrigued by Meta Knight.

“Eh!? Two Kirbies?! I can’t handle that many!”

Meta Knight was even more surprised than Dedede at the sight of Rifty! He had many questions to ask, was this what became of the star he had seen a few nights ago?

‘Do Kirby and I really look that similar?’ Rifty asked themselves.

Meta Knight landed onto the floor and wrapped his cape around himself, observing the astral before him very carefully.

“Hmm, interesting…very interesting, where did you come from, young one?”

“I don’t know really, I just know that Kirby said he found me lying down in a snowy flower field and brought me to his home, I can’t really remember anything else.”

“I see, very interesting indeed.”

“Meta Knight, what are you doing?” asked a puzzled Kirby.

“Observing, it is not often another one of our kind is present, I must take this opportunity by the reigns! Now, may I ask you a question, young one?”

“Uh, yes, sir?”

“What do you know about the art of the blade?”

“Meta Knight! You can’t just ask people if they know how to use a sword!” Kirby shouted.

“Why not? I am simply just curious. Besides, you know how to wield a blade quite well yourself do you not?”

“But that’s only if I have a copy ability!”

“Well then let’s see how Rifty can handle one!” Meta Knight says as he tosses a wooden sword to Rifty.

“Gah!” Rifty stuttered as they stumbled to catch the blade.

“Now, wail onto this target!” Meta Knight exclaimed as he pulled over a sandbag dummy of a Waddle Dee.

Rifty swiped wildly at the sandbag in front of them, leaving a couple of scratches in the dummy.

”Very fascinating,” inquired Meta Knight, before setting up three more sandbags around Rifty.

Rifty proved to be able to handle a blade pretty well for his first try, being capable of dealing with what Meta Knight put in front of them.

“Bravo bravo!” Meta Knight cheered with applause. “I see you are very capable of handling a blade, young squire.”

“Y-yes! I did my best!” Rifty said as they raised the wooden sword into the air triumphantly.

After finishing their conversation with Meta Knight, Kirby and Rifty were heading through the castle halls on their way home. On the way, they ended up bumping into Bandana Waddle Dee and Sailor Waddle Dee, one of Meta Knight’s crew members.

“Oof! Sorry Kirby!” said Bandana Dee. “We were just on our way to get more apple juice for the stand!”

“I guess we didn’t see where we were going!” remarked Sailor Dee nervously.

Kirby then quickly whispered something to Rifty.

“What have you been up to, Kirby?”

“Oh nothing much! Just showing a new friend around!”

Kirby and Rifty then stood next to each other, mimicking the other’s pose!

“Woah! Two Kirbies?! Am I seeing double?”

“Eek! Did he just multiply?”

Kirby laughed. “We got you guys! This is my new friend Rifty! I’ve been showing him around the castle today. Rifty, this is Bandana Waddle Dee and Sailor Waddle Dee!”

“Hiii! It’s very nice to meet you two!”

The two Waddle Dees greeted Rifty.

“Would you like some apple juice?” asked Bandana Waddle Dee. “It’s freshly made!” He offered a pouch to Kirby and Rifty.

“Ooh yes!” Kirby replied with excitement!

Kirby and Rifty were now out of the castle, on their way home.

“So? What did you think?” Kirby asked.

“Huh? Think about what?”

“My friends! Did you enjoy meeting them?”

Rifty took a moment to collect their thoughts.

“Yes, your friends are very nice. I liked meeting the king the most. The Waddle Dees were nice too, but I don’t know how to feel about the knight, why did he want me to use a sword?”

“That’s just how Meta Knight behaves when meeting new people, he loves to test people’s skills! That’s how we met after all!”

“Oh? How did you meet all of your friends?”

“Well, it all started one day during a spring breeze…”

As Kirby began to recall all of their various adventures, Rifty listened with interest as the two walked home while the sun began to set.

‘I think I’m gonna like it here.’ Rifty thought to themselves.

I knew I had to draw this Waddle Dee as soon as I saw them in the Star Crossed World trailer, I cannot wait to see more of them and what they do! I definitely think they’re an astronomer of some sorts, they love the stars!

Can we turn the tides last second? I repeat, CAN WE TURN THE TIDES LAST SECOND?! Last second Rifty propaganda, GO!

ROUND ONE: Rifty VS Antu Jr.

My big entrance into the world of tumblr! Can’t wait to share my creations with all of you!

Starting to get more comfortable with adding personal little details to my AU’s character designs now. Here’s what 🦋!Kirby looks like during the winter! I learned what winter coats were somewhat recently and now I really wanna start implementing that into my work. Something else I also decided recently was to give Kirby a little cottontail! I might give one to Rifty too, maybe it’s something astral starborns grow only during the winter season sometimes?

The Night Before Christmas

‘Twas the night before Christmas, when all through Dream Land

All slept, except Artemis, who worked on a plan

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,

In hopes that Santa Claus soon would be there;

The dreamlanders were nestled all snug in their beds;

While visions of gifts and sweets danced in their heads;

Kirby & Rifty were dreaming of treats,

and Meta Knight wished for new slippers to warm up his feet;

Bandana Dee would love apple juice, made sweet and cold,

While Dedede could use a new hammer, to replace the old;

Sir Artemis swore he’d bring his plan into fruition-

Spreading happiness and cheer across Pop Star was his mission!

Away from the Halberd he flew in a flash,

blazing off into the night with a dash;

The moon in the breast of the new-fallen snow,

Gave a lustre of midday to objects below;

Across the land, he soared through the skies,

With his magic sack of gifts, and a gleam in their eyes;

A bundle of toys he had flung on his back, he looked like a peddler just opening their pack;

His eyes- how they twinkled! his dimples, how merry!

His cheeks were like roses, his face like a cherry!

In just one little gaze, they seemed to wink,

And presents would suddenly appear before one could blink;

A wink of his eyes and a twist of his head,

He was here to let Dream Land know there was nothing to dread!

When night had come to an end, and his bag left emptied,

Sir Artemis returned home knowing his good deed had been well attempted;

He returned to his bed with sleepy, tired eyes,

Waiting for the joy of Pop Star to light up the sunset skies;

When Christmas morning had come, the dreamlanders were filled with glee,

For everything they had ever wanted was sitting right underneath the tree!

Rifty was delighted and Kirby had cheered,

While Meta Knight and the king were wondering when the presents had appeared;

Artemis smiled and with a twinkle in his sight,

he happily proclaimed

“Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night”

The End

Almost forgot to mention that in addition to writing Kirby and the Purple Butterfly, I’m also currently running an ask blog over at @ask-rifty-blog, so if you’d like Rifty themselves to answer any questions may have, come on down there and check it out!
