A Knight's Acceptance
Chapter 12:
A King's War ~ Intro Cutscene
*Earlier*
“Who are you? What have you done with the King!?” Waddle Doo yelled.
“That doesn’t matter. What matters is that you bring Meta Knight to us,” Marx hissed, knocking the captain’s spear away with his wing. The Waddle Dees cowered before this mighty beast. “Now, you will obey my commands or else.” He took one Waddle Dee and dangled him outside the window. The Waddles began squeaking frantically, waving short stubby arms in protest.
The Waddle Doo gulped, seeing no other choice but to give in. “Alright. You’re the leader,” he submitted.
“That’s better,” Marx laughed, “But I prefer you call me King.” He glistened his wing’s claws in the lights, admiring himself. “Now, bring me back Meta Knight, and I’ll give you a special reward. The reward of being a ruler yourself.”
The greedy Waddle Doo accepted. “You’ve got yourself a deal! Troops! Objective: Seek and apprehend!”
The Waddle Dees turned their heads in unison from one superior to the other, confused. Marx frowned at their stupidity. “Idiots, you heard the man! Get a move on!” he snapped. In response, the Waddle Dees scrambled off in a stampede.
*Later*
“What!? What do you mean he wasn’t there!?” the infuriated jester screeched. The trembling mass of Dees hunched over in cowardliness. “B-but my King, he wasn’t present at the moment, so we had to get someone,” stuttered Waddle Doo. Marx eyed the captain with a deep hatred. “Then who are you bringing in?”
“We’re bringing in the old cook. His second-in-command.”
“Anyone else?”
“Two boys and a ball with a taco for a hat.”
“Hmm,” Marx smirked. “That will be fun.” His bright face was passed over with the shadow of judgment. “However, that won’t prevent your punishment from ensuing. You clearly didn’t follow instructions. I wanted Meta Knight. Not his subordinates.”
Waddle Doo muttered low curses underneath his breath. He couldn’t turn back, no sir. If he had to die, he had to die a brave death. Turning back in his generation was considered cowardly.
With two large claws, pointed and beckoned him forward. “You know who you are….” Marx’s eyes turned red, as Waddle Doo took two steps forward to his death.
“AAAHHH!!!”
Slash! Splurt!
A stream of blood poured forth as the captain was murdered. The Waddle Dees tumbled over one another in panic, trying to escape through the only door. Marx immediately locked the door. “None of you will escape alive! I will not tolerate such stupidity! All of you will pay!”
