Everyone at the door dashed inside and shut it. \u201cThey\u2019re outside!\u201d warned Amy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHoo boy!\u201d muttered the Doctor. \u201cWe\u2019re not ready yet! Where are Rassilon and William?!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cRight here!\u201d called Rassilon as she and William brought two more boxes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThank goodness! Where have you been?!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe had to cannibalize a lot of old machines for half these parts!\u201d protested William. \u201cRassilon had to walk me through the parts\u2019 description! It took her ages to describe the Epsilon Reticular Gauge in a way I could understand it!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI had to keep reminding myself that he\u2019s a medical man, not an engineer,\u201d said Rassilon. The TARDIS then rocked, then a bell rang!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cLaudable effort to explain things, Rassilon,\u201d said the Doctor as she began emptying the boxes in a hurry, \u201cbut that may prove academic! That\u2019s the Cloister Bell, everyone!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOf all the times to cannibalize the H.A.D.S!\u201d complained Kirby as he got to work connecting and calibrating the parts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cH.A.D.S?!\u201d asked William.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHostile Action Displacement System!\u201d explained the Doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSomething that usually keeps the TARDIS from being destroyed?!\u201d asked Amy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAn emergency dematerialization away from any destructive force, yes!\u201d replied the Doctor. \u201cBut we needed key components from them for this to work!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cTARDIS computer\u2019s ready for the estimates!\u201d said Rassilon. \u201c200 strong army\u2019s been detected!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201c200 Weeping Angels,\u201d shuddered the Doctor as she fed figures into the console. \u201cThat\u2019s pushing it! We\u2019ll have to give it everything! Computer\u2019s calculated the projections! Kirby, Rassilon, it\u2019s time!\u201d The two Time Lords and the Star Warrior wired the segments of the Key to Time to a slapdash machine that seemed to stretch its wires into the console. \u201cPowering up!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cFeeding through the boosters!\u201d announced Rassilon. The console sparked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cPotential temporal feedback loop building!\u201d called Kirby. \u201cProjecting perma-lux barrier! No, wait! That\u2019s too early! The flux comparative\u2019s interfering!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWilliam! That purple button right there!\u201d called the Doctor. \u201cPress it like you did with Miss Tarae\u2019s TARDIS! 112 BPM!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAnother one bites the dust then! Here we go!\u201d replied William. He began pressing the button to the beat of Another one Bites the Dust<\/em>, even singing along.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cAnother one bites the dust!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Another one bites the dust!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n And another one gone, and another one gone,<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Another one bites the dust! (yeah)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Hey, I’m gonna get you too!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Another one bites the dust!<\/em>\u201d The Time Rotor then started glowing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWe\u2019re compensating well!\u201d called Rassilon. \u201cFive! Four! Three! Two! One! NOW!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWILLIAM, STOP!\u201d called the Doctor. As William stopped TARDIS CPR, The Doctor pulled the take-off lever. The console sparked for a bit, then the TARDIS made its arrival noise and thud. Smoke came out of the console. The Doctor waved it away with her hat and checked the scanner. The other instruments then rebooted. Kirby checked them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201c\u2026We\u2019re just a few yards away from the Angels\u2019 outer perimeter,\u201d he said. The Doctor then smiled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cYour idea worked, Kirby!\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cReally?!\u201d asked Kirby.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cLet\u2019s take a look outside!\u201d called the Doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Everyone stepped out of the TARDIS to see the Weeping Angels inside a transparent ball of yellow light, being jostled around. \u201c\u2026Wh\u2026What is this?\u201d asked William.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThat, William,\u201d said the Doctor, \u201cis the Weeping Angels gorging themselves on the potential energy of their own lives whilst looking at one another forever! And the TARDIS checked to make sure there weren\u2019t any more Angels! Popstar is clear!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201c\u2026So what do we do with them?\u201d asked Bandee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cNo worries,\u201d said Kirby. \u201cThat problem\u2019s about to solve itself.\u201d The bubble then vanished, taking the Angels with it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWhere\u2019d they go?!\u201d yelped Dedede.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cTo a lifeless planet,\u201d replied the Doctor. \u201cWe had to convince our potential time energy bubble to go there instead of staying here on Popstar.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI\u2019d rather not have any Angels on my lawn,\u201d chuckled Kirby. \u201c\u2026And now that this adventure is over\u2026\u201d He, Dedede, Bandee, and Meta Knight then posed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cOoh boy!\u201d said Amy. \u201cHere comes the victory dance!\u201d The four Popstar Warriors then performed a short victory dance before making a final pose. As they posed, Kirby gave up his new Copy Ability and returned to being normal Kirby.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cHAI!\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cDoctor, I\u2019m a grateful king!\u201d said Dedede. \u201cWe\u2019ll be holding a feast in your honor!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cOh, we appreciate that, King Dedede,\u201d said Amy, \u201cbut we have to-.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cErm\u2026we can\u2019t really leave yet,\u201d sighed the Doctor. \u201cThat trick damaged the TARDIS so much that the old girl needs to rest and recharge its power cells.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201c\u2026Oh.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201c\u2026Well, I think we could do with a short rest,\u201d said Rassilon. \u201cAnd I\u2019m going to take this opportunity to get myself a new outfit.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cHow about after the feast, Rassilon?\u201d asked Amy. \u201cI could do with some food.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cMe too,\u201d agreed William.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201c\u2026Yes, food IS more important right now,\u201d conceded Rassilon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThat settles it, then!\u201d declared the Doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At Castle Dedede, the Waddle-Dees prepared a magnificent spread with meats, veggies, and sweets. Kirby and Dedede were the ones eating the most, given their shared love of food. Rassilon blinked. She ate a lot to recover the energy she spent in regenerating, but nowhere near as much as Kirby and Dedede. \u201cIt\u2019s a thing with them,\u201d said Bandee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI see,\u201d remarked Rassilon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cMan, that\u2019s good food!\u201d sighed William happily as he patted his belly. \u201cI needed that!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cYou\u2019re telling me!\u201d said Amy. \u201cThat was delicious!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n After the feast, the TARDIS crew was brought back to the TARDIS. It looked a lot better now. \u201cThank you all!\u201d called the Doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cYou\u2019re welcome back to Popstar any time!\u201d called Dedede.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cPoyoyo!\u201d said Kirby as everyone waved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cBye, Kirby! See you in the next Smash Tournament!\u201d replied Amy. Everyone was back inside the TARDIS and it took off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201c\u2026Goodbye, Doctor,\u201d said Meta Knight to himself. \u201cAnd good luck.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n As the TARDIS entered the Time Vortex, the Doctor inserted the tracer into its slot. \u201cAll right, old girl,\u201d she said to the TARDIS, \u201cyou take your time in calculating the next destination. Rassilon, you think you could-?\u201d She noticed she was alone in the console room. \u201c\u2026Rassilon? Amy? William?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cIn the wardrobe!\u201d called Amy\u2019s voice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201c\u2026Ah! Yes! Rassilon!\u201d recalled the Doctor. She headed to the wardrobe. She knocked on the door.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cCome in,\u201d called Rassilon. The Doctor entered to see Rassilon in a blue shirt, skirt, brown jacket, and a brown trilby. \u201cWell?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201c\u2026I think the blue would work better,\u201d remarked the Doctor, \u201cbut the rest of the ensemble makes you look like a comedy internet reviewer.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201c\u2026Well, I suppose\u2026\u201d Rassilon ducked behind a curtain, then came out looking like a blue Queen of Hearts. \u201c\u2026What do you think?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201c\u2026Too stuffy,\u201d remarked William.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201c\u2026No, then,\u201d sighed Rassilon. She went behind another curtain, then came back out in a patchwork coat!<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cNow you\u2019re just mocking me!\u201d hissed the Doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cYes, I am, aren\u2019t I?\u201d chuckled Rassilon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cYou\u2026you wore that, Doctor?!\u201d asked Amy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cYes, during my sixth incarnation,\u201d sighed the Doctor. \u201cMy Mid-lives crisis, as it were.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cYou\u2019d fit in at a Pride Parade in that,\u201d remarked William.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cOh, no doubt,\u201d agreed the Doctor. Rassilon ducked behind another curtain, then came out wearing a blue flamenco dress with a blue rose and bow pinned to the left of her hair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI think we have a winner!\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201c\u2026Rassilon, we do a lot of running here,\u201d remarked William.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cOh, don\u2019t worry,\u201d replied the Doctor. \u201cI had a companion that always wore the wrong shoes and she got herself out of plenty of trouble.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201c\u2026Something\u2019s missing,\u201d muttered Rassilon. She then saw a makeup kit. \u201cLipstick! That\u2019s it!\u201d She got out blue lipstick from the kit and applied it. She then examined herself in the mirror.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI\u2019m guessing Meta Knight\u2019s accent had an influence,\u201d chuckled Amy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cYes, this is the one!\u201d declared Rassilon. \u201cNow, where to next?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cRassilon, there\u2019s a mystery here,\u201d remarked the Doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cDoctor?\u201d asked William.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cHow did the Angels know where to base themselves?\u201d continued the Doctor. \u201cAnd how did they know we were after the Key to Time?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201c\u2026Come to think of it, the Autons were after it as well,\u201d recalled Rassilon. \u201cAlmost as if\u2026as if someone told them!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThe Black Guardian,\u201d said the Doctor. \u201cIt\u2019s the only logical explanation. They want you to fail.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWhat would be the Black Guardian\u2019s endgame in making me fail, though?\u201d muttered Rassilon. \u201cUnless they view my seeking your help as cheating.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cQuestions, questions, where are the answers?\u201d muttered the Doctor. \u201cWe\u2019d better find them by the time we assemble the Key.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cAgreed,\u201d said Rassilon. William and Amy stood by.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201c\u2026I really hate it when they act this way,\u201d muttered William.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cDon\u2019t knock it,\u201d said Amy. \u201cIt looks like Rassilon is changing for the better. The Doctor DID call her a tyrant at one point and Rassilon\u2019s not so high-handed and Time Lordish.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201c\u2026It really has been fun,\u201d mused William.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cHm?\u201d asked the Doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cNothing,\u201d replied William.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Everyone at the door dashed inside and shut it. \u201cThey\u2019re outside!\u201d warned Amy. \u201cHoo boy!\u201d muttered the Doctor. \u201cWe\u2019re not ready yet!
