Day 1: First day of vacation
Meta Knight, Sword and Blade were doing their daily guarding of the castle. Most of the day, they walk around the castle making sure that there is no suspicious activity going on. It also included King DeDeDe's own action. Ever since Kirby defeated Knightmare, nothing eventful had happened. The three knights just walk around the castle doing nothing in particular. Occasionally, they look out the balcony to see who enters the castle in case there is suspicious activity going on.
Even though the Knight's job seems simple, it really was not simple. Guarding the castle includes guarding the King, which they despise. The only reason they worked for King DeDeDe was to find the star warrior, which they already did. The star warrior was Kirby. Yet, the only reason they continued to work for King DeDeDe was because they had nothing better to do.
King DeDeDe is a terrible ruler, so many of Cappy Town citizens goes to the King to make a complaint, [They know that Sir Ebrums and the mayor can't do much,] Meta Knight and his followers had to make sure that the complainer doesn't do anything dastardly to the King, even if it includes kicking them out of the castle. This pretty much happen everyday.
But right now, there is no complaining Cappy Town citizen which was a relief to the Knights. King DeDeDe just told them to keep guard of the castle. That is why they were walking around the castle doing nothing in the first place.
The knight's footsteps echoed across the lonely hallway. The only source of light was the dim torches that hung on the wall. Sword sighed.
"Sword and Blade, I have something to tell you," said Meta Knight all of a sudden. His voice echoed across the hallway causing an eerie silence.
"You guys worked so hard and I believe that you guys deserve a vacation," said Meta Knight.
"Oh no Meta Knight, we're fine. We enjoy working with you Meta Knight," said Sword.
"Yeah, I agree with Sword," said Blade.
"Trust me, you really deserve a break. I have already spoken to King DeDeDe and you are free to go," said Meta Knight.
"What!" cried out Sword and Blade in unison.
"You may leave the castle before I have to escort you guys myself," said Meta Knight in almost a threatening tone.
"We are not going to leave you!" exclaimed Blade.
"Fine you can come along with me," said Meta Knight.
Meta Knight approached a window and looked out. Sword and Blade looked out at the same window.
"What are you looking at?" asked Sword.
Suddenly, Meta Knight pushed Sword and Blade out of the window and landed on the conveniently placed pile of leaves.
"Sir Meta Knight, you can't do this to us!" cried out Sword.
"But I just did, I have already told the waddle dees to not allow you to enter the castle until nighttime," said Meta Knight as he disappeared from the window.
Sword and Blade rushed to the castle door and continuously banged on it, hoping that someone other than Meta Knight would answer it.
"There is nothing you guys can do, Tiff and Tuff are out playing with Kirby and you know how long they can stay doing that," snickered Meta Knight.
"Please Meta Knight, we want to work, how else are we gonna get paid!" cried out Blade.
"Since you are on a vacation, you are still getting paid. Do not worry, I will be fine. Just go and enjoy the rest of your day,"
Meta Knight's footsteps faded into the castle.
"Just great, we are on a forced vacation," said Sword.
"We might as well enjoy our day," said Blade, trying to make things better.
"Let's go to Cappy Town and find something to do," gasped Sword.
They dragged themselves to Cappy Town, where many of the citizens are outside talking to each other on this beautiful day. The children, including Kirby, were running around the large tree that stood on the center of Cappy Town.
"Sword, Blade, what are you guys doing here?" asked Tiff as she ran towards them.
"Meta Knight is giving us a forced vacation," said Sword.
"How can you guys not want a vacation? You guys totally deserve a nice break from walking around the castle," said Tiff.
"I know, but it's very different without Meta Knight. Maybe if he was on a vacation with us, we would actually enjoy it," said Blade.
"I guess Meta Knight want you guys to spend some time without him. You guys should really learn to be without him, anyways, if Meta Knight goes on a vacation, who else is going to guard the castle?" said Tiff.
"You're right, we should just enjoy our day!" cheered Blade.
"I'm hungry," said Sword all of a sudden.
"Is there any place where they sell some food?" asked Blade to Tiff.
"Uhh, you guys can go to chief Kawasaki over there, but I don't think-"
Blade grabbed Sword's hand and pulled him into Chef Kawasaki's restaurant. They sat down on an empty table and picked up a menu.
"Hmm, the noodles sound good," murmured Blade.
"I am getting some sushi!" exclaimed Sword.
Chef Kawasaki came over to them, eager to see the two knight servants eating at his restaurant.
"What you two like?" asked Chef Kawasaki.
"I would like some noodles, and Sword would like some sushi," said Blade.
"Coming right up!" exclaimed Chef Kawasaki as he dashed into the kitchen and immediately began cooking.
Sword and Blade noticed the mayor and his enter the restaurant. They sat across from them and placed their order to Chef Kawasaki. Sword and Blade received their food and at the first bite [or slurp for Blade's case] they gagged.
"What kind of food is this!" cried out Blade.
"Don't say that out loud, we know this food taste bad but we don't want Chef Kawasaki to know," whispered Tiff.
"C'mon, do you want the people to suffer!" cried out Blade.
"Just eat your food, this is the only restaurant in Cappy Town," said Tiff.
Sword and Blade disdainfully ate the food and forced a swallow. Sword nearly regurgitated, but he swallowed it. Blade nearly did the same thing by watching Sword eat the food.
"I am starting to miss the castle better, at least Meta Knight can cook a decent meal," said Blade.
Suddenly, the mayor grasped his neck and gasped for air as he collapsed to the ground.
"The mayor is choking! What should we do!" cried out Tiff.
No one at the restaurant knew what to do to a choking person, because of everyone's heavy reliance on Dr. Yabui.
"Sword, Blade, do something!" cried out Tiff.
"Hey, we are on a vacation, we're supposed to do nothing!" yelled Blade.
"There is always time to help someone now do something!" cried out Tiff.
"Why don't you do something instead of yelling at me!" yelled Sword.
Tiff crossed her arms in annoyance. She glared at Sword and Blade, expecting them to do something. Sword and Blade only stared at each other, trying to figure out their next move.
"You stupid civilians can't do anything for yourself," muttered Sword as he walked up to the mayor and kicked him in the stomach. A piece of chicken fell out of the mayor's mouth. The mayor's wife gasped. The mayor rose and took a deep breath.
"Why did you-" cried out Tiff before she was interrupted by the mayor.
"Thank you so much for saving my life," said the mayor.
"Uhh, you were choking on a piece of chicken, there was nothing else for me to do," said Sword.
"I swear these people are idiots," whispered Blade to Sword.
"I know, but we are going to have to deal with them for ten days," said Sword.
"I shall give you guys the keys to the city," said the mayor.
"You were choking on a piece of chicken! You could have saved yourself!" cried out Sword.
Sword stomped out of the store, with Blade following behind him.
"I can never be with these people without doing some kind of deed for them!" cried out Sword, "Meta Knight wants us to have a vacation and these stupid people are making it hard for me to have a decent vacation!"
"Now you know how Kirby feels," said Blade.
"Do you still want the keys to the city?" asked the mayor.
"Keep it yourself! What can I do with a key that opens nothing!" cried out Sword.
Blade spent the rest of the day, trying to calm Sword down. Their first day of vacation wasn't so bad except for the people now knows that Sword have a temper problem. Sword and Blade walked back to King DeDeDe's castle and the door finally opened for them. They dragged themselves to their room and prepared to sleep.
"So how was your day?" asked Meta Knight who just entered the room.
"It was alright," said Sword.
"I'm glad you are enjoying your vacation. You better rest up for another day," said Meta Knight.
"Please don't drop us off the window again," said Blade.
"Do not worry, I will only do it, if you refuse to leave the castle again," said Meta Knight.
"Good night," said Blade when the knights finally slept in their own bed. The moon faintly lit their room as they all fell into a deep slumber.
