## Story

The game starts off with Tirana sitting in the Teleporta Portals. He sits there holding a Jamba Heart, enraged. He then has flashbacks of all his failures because of Kirby, then all his emotions of hatred for Kirby are transferred into the Jamba Heart, which creates the Death Heart. Tirana then smiles evilly as his eyes turn red. He then decides to start his final plan to defeat Kirby, by sending out imp demons of Helluva (mostly inspired by the works of Jacklyn Helluva, see A Kirby Earth Wiki).

The scene then switches to Kirby and his friends relaxing in Dream Land. They were celebrating the redemption of Shadow Magolor Clone, Dark Bailey Clone and the Mage-Sisters. Then Meta Knight, Dark Meta Knight and Hyness sense something. Before they can tell anyone, a huge blast appears. And when the smoke clears, it shows an Imp Demon, named Blitzø holding King Dedede's head, and appeared to be sucking out something from his mind. Meta Knight dashes at Blitzo to save his friend, but instead, Blitzo lets go of Dedede's head and holds Meta Knight's head instead. After a few seconds, both King Dedede and Meta Knight fall down unconscious. Kirby and his other 114 allies then dash at Blitzo. Dark Hyness manages to hold King Dedede, Meta Knight, Sejanus, Stephen, Mark, Larry, Austin, Byron, Nicholas, Aston, Susie, Taranza, Julianus, Hydarnes, Marx, Tiff, Magolor, Daroach, Hugo, Jacklyn, the Three Mage-Sisters and Hyness's heads, resulting in all of them to fall down unconscious. Then the only remaining who are standing are Henry, Trajanus, Dark Bailey Clone, Shadow Magolor Clone, the dark mages, Adeleine, Ribbon, Gooey, the Animal Friends, Dark Meta Knight, Shadow Kirby, Shadow Tiff, Shadow Bandana Dee, Healcus, Termina and Kirby. Then Ribbon and Dark Meta Knight scream to Kirby "LOOK OUT!". Before Kirby can fully turn around, he sees that Blitzo is about to hold his head. However, just before he touches Kirby's head, Shadow Tiff shoots a missile at Blitzo, which causes him to fall back.

Adeleine, Ribbon, Gooey and the Animal Friends go and check on Kirby, while the shadow heroes confront Blitzo. Dark Meta Knight points his sword at Blitzo and asks him what he did to his friends. He looks at him and smiles evilly. He then tells them that he was from the planet of Venus, however, due to a book they had gotten, they broke through a portal, stole the negative emotions from the victims he touched, and came with his group, known as I.M.P. He explains that when he touched their heads, he managed to use his powers to steal the negative emotions from their minds. Dark Zan Partizanne asks Blitzo why he wanted to steal their negative emotions, and He replies "That's classified information, you useless mage.". This angers the rest. Dark Meta Knight is about to stab Dark Hyness but then Dark Hyness teleports behind them. The (conscious) heroes are shocked. Blitzo then explains that he can use their negative emotions to make him get the same powers as them except much stronger. Shadow Kirby then asks him why he didn't steal the mirror counterparts's negative emotions as he could have easily done so when they were off-guard. Blitzo then says that he couldn't steal the mirror counterparts's negative emotions because all mirror counterparts are created by negative emotions.

So if he were to steal their negative emotions, he would steal their souls as well which would make those souls merge with his soul and thus causing him to lose control. He then says that it doesn't matter, he then evilly smirks and says that when he steals Kirby's negative emotions, he'll be the most powerful being in the universe. He then rushes at Kirby and tries to touch his head, the others try to stop him, but Blitzo teleports infront of Kirby and then touches his head. But when he does so, he sees all of Kirby's happy memories and then sees a Kirby made out of dreams and light, which then kicks Blitzo out of Kirby's mind. Blitzo returns to the normal world, and is so startled, then Kirby attacks him and almost defeats him until Blitzo teleports onto a rock infront of Kirby. He then smirks and says that he may not be able to get Kirby's power for now, but he'll figure it out soon. He then turns into a dark cloud and disappears. Kirby's unconscious friends then wake up and Dark Meta Knight explains the whole situation. Meta Knight says that they have to make sure that Blitzo and his demons don’t get Kirby's power, or they will be truly unstoppable. The Star Allies then set off to what might be their biggest, darkest, dangerous, bloody, and most dangerous adventure they've ever been on.

The heroes first head to Whispy Woods, thinking that he might've seen Blitzo. However, when they arrive there, they don't see Whispy Woods, but rather, a hell version called Helluva Woods. Blitzo then appears and said that he stole Whispy's negative emotions and transferred it into the Jamba Heart Tirana had which caused the Jamba Heart to turn into a darker, and more powerful version of Whispy Woods. Blitzo then laughs and teleports away. Helluva Woods then wakes up and starts to attack the heroes. Eventually, Helluva Woods is defeated. It then explodes which leaves a Jamba Heart. The Jamba Heart then floats away. Nago, ChuChu and Pitch then arrive. Kirby asks them what happened to Whispy Woods. Nago then says that Whispy Woods was destroyed by Dark Hyness. ChuChu then says that if they manage to find an apple belonging to Whispy, they can revive him again. The heroes then agree to try and find an apple belonging to Whispy while they're on their mission. Meta Knight then suggests that they use the Halberd at Castle Dedede to continue their mission, the heroes agree and move onto Castle Dedede.

The heroes arrive at Castle Dedede after a while, and see that the Waddle Dees are attacking them. The heroes get confused and run away from the Waddle Dees. They then arrive to Dedede's Throne Room, but to their surprise, there is someone else sitting on King Dedede's throne. It's a weapon specialist of Blitzo, named Moxxie. Blitzo then appears once again and says that he was the one to possess the Waddle Dees and Dedede and forced them to go against the heroes, he then says that they won't be able to defeat an army and the Waddle Dees will find them soon. He then says that until they arrive, he'll get Moxxie to entertain them. He then teleports away and the fight between the heroes and Moxxie starts, but the heroes manage to defeat Moxxie. Then the Waddle Dees rush into the room and surround the heroes with spears. The heroes then jump out of the castle window and land at the front of Castle Dedede. But there were already Waddle Dees there and the Waddle Dees inside the castle jump out as well. Causing the heroes to be surrounded once more, with no apparent way to escape. Meta Knight, Dark Meta Knight and Flamberge bring out their swords, and attempt to slash the Waddle Dees. But the Waddle Dees are much more skilled and hit them back. Kirby and Shadow Kirby attempt to summon their Warp Stars, but the Waddle Dees smash the Warp Stars before they can reach the two. King Dedede and Oscar attempt to inhale the Waddle Dees, but the Waddle Dees throw poisonous apples into their mouths, causing the two to get poisoned. A Waddle Dee then steps up to Kirby and pokes him with his spear, this causes Kirby to spit out an apple. The Waddle Dee is about to slash Kirby when it gets held back by an arm, which is revealed to belong to Whispy Woods. Whispy Woods then puts the heroes on the top of his branches, and release all of his apples. This causes the Waddle Dees to get hit by the apples and releases them from their corruption. The Waddle Dees then apologize to the heroes and the heroes move on to get the Halberd.

The heroes board the Halberd, but then it just takes off even though no one is piloting the ship. The heroes head into the piloting area and see another imp piloting the ship, called Procas. Procas takes out his sword and fights the heroes, but eventually, the heroes win and defeat Procas, Meta Knight then takes the controls and pilots the ship. Then the Halberd arrives in space, but then an alarm goes off, someone has intruded into the Halberd! Susie goes to check who it is when she gets hit by a huge mech, which reveals another demon, Tibran. Tibran battles the heroes, sometimes even getting to the ship's controls and hacking the ship, causing it to move around in weird directions, but the heroes defeat him and Susie restores the Halberd back to normal position (without Meta Knight noticing). Suddenly, the Hell Portal appears and out comes Orestes. Orestes laughs and battles the heroes, but loses. The heroes become alert for more imps sent by Tirana and Blitzo. Axe Knight then tracks something heading towards the Halberd with high speed. Meta Knight commands his crew to fire the cannons at the threat. Sailor Waddle Dee and Mace Knight then activate the canons which attempts to shoot down the threat. But the threat is too fast and lands on the ship. The heroes then head to the Main Reactor of the ship and sees Moxxie destroying the Main Reactor. Meta Knight then switches on the shield of the Main Reactor, but it only lasts temporarily before it becomes weak. Moxxie then fights the heroes, while there is a timer (3 minutes). Then there are two possible outcomes:

* Bad Ending: If the timer runs out and the heroes fail to defeat Moxxie, the shield of the Main Reactor becomes weak which allows Moxxie to destroy the Main Reactor. Moxxie then laughs evilly and leaves the ship. Meta Knight then evacuates everyone and leaves the ship. Then the Halberd is seen to crash into another planet. Without the Halberd, the heroes are unable to continue their mission, which allows Tirana's plan to succeed. Leaving the heroes in defeat.
* No Bad Ending: If the heroes defeat Moxxie before the timer runs out, Moxxie is flung off the ship and the Main Reactor is safe. Meta Knight then continues to pilot the Halberd.

After Moxxie is defeated, Meta Knight heads back into the piloting area, and assigns everyone to remain in different places of the Halberd, just in case of another attack. Kirby, Bandana Waddle Dee, King Dedede and Magolor end up near the Main Reactor. But then, a dimensional rift appears and reveals Millie, the wife of Moxxie, who attempts to destroy the Main Reactor. King Dedede turns on the alarm, which alerts everyone else about the villain. Then Magolor turns on the Main Reactor shields and the heroes fight Jamba Magolor. There is also a timer in this fight (2 minutes and 30 seconds). Then there are three possible outcomes:

* Bad Ending: If the timer runs out then the Main Reactor shields get weak again and Millie destroys the ship. This allows Tirana's plan to succeed.
* Another Bad Ending: If Millie hacks the ship, and is then defeated before the timer runs out. A dimensional rift will appear which sucks Kirby and his allies into different times of the past. Without any heroes to stop him, Tirana's plan succeeds.
* No Bad Ending: If the heroes defeat Millie before the timer runs out (and doesn't let him hack the ship) then she will get knocked out and brutally struck and the heroes move on.

The heroes then arrive at an abandoned planet which would lead them to Blitzo. They leave the Halberd and start moving around the planet. When around the planet, they find many keys and then finally make it to a locked dimensional rift. The 5 keys that they collected then fuse into one key, Kirby is about to use it on the lock but then someone grabs the key from his hand. This reveals Shax. The heroes battle Shax and win, allowing them to use the key on the lock and travel to the I.M.P Base and Venus itself.

The heroes then arrive somewhere, but see the base in the distance, they then start to travel there. When they are halfway through, however, they walk into a dark forest. Then the Mage-Sisters and Hyness, along with their group get lost. The heroes try to find them again and see the Mage-Sisters. Kirby asks them what they're when Zan Partizanne steps up to him and attempts to slash him with her spear, but Dark Zan Partizanne grabs Kirby just in time. The Mage-Sisters are then revealed to actually be the Goetia Family (Stolas, Octavia and Stella). The heroes battle the terrible Goetia clones of the Mage-Sisters, and win against them. Then then carry on and see the Mage-Sisters and Hyness knocked out on the floor. Then a mysterious figure walks down which is revealed to be Loona. Loons then sees the heroes and fights them. Loona's arm is then pulled off while in battle. Instead of summoning the Imp Mage-Sisters (not that she’d be able to anyway, since they were defeated), Loons summons three clones of herself, which then battle the heroes. But then the heroes defeat Loona and she gets knocked out, resulting with the clones fizzling out. Kirby then sees that Jamba Hyness dropped a book. He picks it up, and (with the help of Meta Knight) reads it. The heroes are shocked to see that this book contained Tirana's scrapped plans to kill the Star Allies. There were about over a thousand, with terrible contents in the plans. Kirby gets a shiver and wonders what will happen when they face Tirana if he's made a plan that he thinks would work over the other ones that he scrapped. The heroes then leave the forest and start getting close to the base.

The heroes then continue their journey and see Blitzo appear. Blitzo then says that his men may have failed but he didn't expect them to win against the heroes. Kirby then tells Blitzo to stop and asks why he wants to conquer the universe so badly. He then says "Correction: why I DID want to conquer the universe so badly". Blitzo then tells the heroes that no matter what he does, he admits that he can never conquer the universe with the Star Allies around. He then states that he wants to destroy the universe now. The Star Allies were shocked. Shadow Magolor Clone then steps up and says that he can't believe that he was ever loyal to a beast like Tirana. Dark Hyness gets angry and says that he doesn't want loyalty from a pathetic clone. This causes Dark Hyness Clone and the Dark Mage-Sisters to step up and get very angry at him. Blitzo then smiles evilly and says that he only used them as tools for his plans. Komarov then steps up as well, but Tirana states that Komarov is just a "Marx wannabe" and nothing else. Komarov then attempts to attack Blitzo with dark magic but it then stopped by a huge water pressure. This then reveals Kracko. Blitzo states that he stole the DNA from Kracko and uses his magic to bring it to life with water. He commands Water Kracko to defeat the heroes and leaves. Water Kracko then fights the heroes. After his first phase is defeated, he splits himself into ten mini Water Krackos, which then battle Kirby and his Star Allies. The Star Allies then destroy all the mini Water Krackos which destroys Water Kracko completely, the heroes then move on, but are stopped by Vassago. Vassago then fights the heroes, after his first phase is defeated, he activates Death Mode and moves faster and is stronger. He is also able to summon shields which defend from all attacks (except special attacks like Marx's laser and Magolor's Lor Starcutter). But eventually, He is defeated, and then retreats. The heroes then fight Fizzarolli (a gigantic, robotic and imp version of the Circus ability). After they defeat Fizzarolli, Verosika appears and immediately recognizes Kirby. She then attempts to kill the Star Allies but is defeated. Then after she is flung, it reveals Dark Matter and Kirby throws a friend heart at it. This unlocks Dark Matter Swordsman as a Dream Friend.

The heroes then move on but then heroes the heroes hear a familiar voice. The figure then reveals itself. Kirby is shocked to see the person he thought he would never see again, Lacuna. Kirby asks Lacuna how she is alive when she was killed by Kirby in *Kirby: Civil War Intact*. Lacuna then replies that she is alive as a spirit. Lacuna tells Kirby that she was able to use Galacta Knight's memories of her to make her return to the living world as a spirit. Lacuna then states that she won't rest until she gets revenge on Kirby for what he did to her. Kirby then tells Lacuna about Tirana's plans to destroy the universe and asks her to put her hatred against him aside so that they can work together to defeat Tirana and Blitzo. But Lacuna refuses. Kirby is then about to ask her again but then remembers what she did to his friends and his hatred for her starts to come back to him. Kirby then fights Lacuna but can't as she is a spirit. Dark Matter Swordsman then transfers some of the power from the Rainbow Sword to Kirby. This allows Kirby to fight Lacuna. Eventually, Lacuna is defeated, and a portal appears which sends her back to the death world. Kirby is about to destroy her soul completely but then remembers that Lacuna was the reason that Taranza was alive. So he stops himself and Lacuna is sent back to the death world.

The heroes then move on and finally arrive at the entrance of I.M.P Base. Tirana appears and gets angry that all his minions were defeated by Kirby. So he decides to summon, not a person, but a machine. Tirana then summons the Death Starcutter, but it is in ruins, and looks like someone smashed it many times. Shadow Magolor Clone gets angry and asks what Dark Hyness did to the Death Starcutter. Dark Hyness said that he broke the Death Starcutter piece-by-piece until it was fully under his control. Dark Hyness then commands the Death Starcutter to destroy the Star Allies. The Star Allies battle against the Death Starcutter and win. Kirby then throws a Friend Heart at the Death Starcutter which redeems it. The heroes then enter the Base to finally confront Tirana.

The heroes confront him and tell him to stop at once, as there's no where left for him to hide. Tirana tells Kirby that he's had enough of him. Dark Hyness then tells Kirby that the only way to defeat him, is to fight fire with fire. Kirby is confused. Then Tirana summons a Jamba Heart and uses it to bring an impish version of Kirby, Imp Kirby. Imp Kirby immediately recognizes Kirby and starts attacking him. Tirana then smiles evilly. Imp Kirby and Tirana both tell Kirby that they have been waiting for a rematch between them for aeons. Imp Kirby has many more powers now, making him much stronger than Kirby. After Imp Kirby's first phase is defeated, he summons a dark version of the Star Rod, and fights Kirby while using this weapon. Kirby summons the Star Rod and uses it against Imp Kirby. After Imp Kirby's second phase is defeated, Dark Kirby starts using Super Abilities in his attacks. To defeat Imp Kirby, Kirby must use Super Abilities as well. After Imp Kirby is defeated, he smiles and turns into dust, also knocking out Tirana for good.

The Star Allies then go to Kirby and ask if he's alright, Kirby responds that he's fine. But then they hear a familiar voice. Kirby looks back, and sees a enemy he truly thought that he'd never see again, Zero. Kirby remembers defeating Zero-Four and thought that Zero-Six wouldn't have been able to reincarnate again. But here he was, as Zero-Seven. Zero-Seven then appears and greets Kirby. Kirby glares at him. Zero-Seven then screams in anger and tells Kirby that he's spent centuries trying to defeat Kirby, but he always fails. Zero-Seven then states that he is now the Angel of Destruction, and that his main goal is to remove positive energy from the universe. Zero-Sevem then says that Kirby is full of positive energy, so he is the main target. Zero-Seven then spots Dark Matter Swordsman and asks him why he's on the enemy's side. Dark Matter Swordsman responds to him that he's been redeemed by Kirby and has no intention to follow Zero's plans ever again. Zero-Five says that he's just like Gooey and then attempts to destroy Dark Matter Swordsman, but Kirby uses the Love-Love Stick against Zero-Seven. Zero-Seven gets angry and summons his Dark Matter, then the battle between them begins. Kirby uses the Love-Love Stick against Zero-Seven while Zero-Seven uses his Dark Matter. Zero-Seven is very fast, due to his Crown Jet burning purple fire. He also has two sets of wings, which he uses to send wind pressure against Kirby. After his first phase, Zero-Seven attempts to use lasers to defeat Kirby, but still loses. In Zero-Seven's final phase, he starts using Jamba Hearts and Dark Matter against Kirby while attacking him. But Kirby's positive energy charges the Love-Love Stick which makes him able to defeat Zero-Seven. Zero-Seven then screams and sheds lots of blood before he explodes.

Blitzo then appears and makes a tantrum. He says that it's impossible, a stronger version of Kirby himself, was still defeated by Kirby. Even the Angel of Destruction couldn't beat Kirby. Blitzo gets angry and says that no matter what he does, he had never had any fails. Kirby then tells Blitzo to give up, that his plans to destroy the universe will never work. Blitzo then tells Kirby that he'll make his plan succeed no matter what. He then prepares to battle against Kirby. Kirby and the Star Allies prepare to battle him as well. Bandana Waddle Dee says that they've beaten enemies many times, so they can definitely beat him again. Blitzo smiles evilly and then says that he the powers of most of the Star Allies now. So defeating them should be easy.

Blitzo first fights the Star Allies head on, using the attacks of Dark Bailey and his new powers. In Blitzo's second phase, he starts summoning monsters through dimensional rifts while still maintaining his attacks. In Blitzo's third phase, he summons a shield around himself, thus meaning that Kirby needs Super Abilities in order to defeat him. In Blitzo's fourth phase, He starts producing Jamba Hearts and throws them at the Star Allies, while using his attacks. Once Blitzo's fourth phase is defeated, his final phase starts. Blitzo summons a giant Ultra Sword and attempts to kill the Star Allies with it, but Kirby gets his Ultra Sword and the two swords clash. The Star Allies help Kirby to push the Sword and eventually, Kirby's Sword beats Blitzo's Sword. Kirby then slashes his Sword at him many times, this causes Blitzo to scream and get flung out of Dream Land. Kirby then looks outside, and sees that the dark clouds and sky have returned to normal. Kirby and the Star Allies cheer for one of their biggest victories yet and head home with the Halberd.

There is then an ending cutscene where I.M.P in their office reveals to have faked their defeats. They then have flashbacks of the battles between them and Kirby, and shows that he managed to touch Kirby's head and steal the negative emotions that Kirby got from his hatred against Lacuna. Moxxie then smiles and says that the the next battle will decide the fate of the war. He then smiles into the air and I.M.P tells Kirby to get ready, for the true ending is here.

## Hellish Nightmare

The mode starts off with Kirby sleeping in his house, when suddenly, a huge thunder strike is heard outside. Kirby rushes out of his house in a hurry, and sees that the sky of Popstar is red, and there are dark clouds everywhere. Suddenly, a huge lighting strike hits Kirby and Kirby is knocked unconscious. The last thing he sees is I.M.P’s van descending from the sky. Later, Kirby wakes up in the Halberd, with Meta Knight, Hyness, and the Three Mage-Sisters looking at him. Kirby asks them what's going on, when he sees the rest of his friends unconscious on beds too. Meta Knight then tells Kirby that they were knocked unconscious from fighting Pararell versions of I.M.P. Kirby was shocked to hear this, Meta Knight then told him that Moxxie now possesses the same power as Kirby, which makes him much more stronger now. Kirby is even more shocked to hear this, and starts getting sad because it's his fault that his friends are like this. Hyness tells him not worry, because they're thinking of a plan to defeat I.M.P. Kirby then stops getting sad, but then a huge crash is heard. I.M.P then appears! Meta Knight angrily asks Blitzo what they are doing here, while revealing Galaxia. Millie then responds that they are here to kill Kirby, since he is the target. After hearing this, Hyness and the mage sisters attempt to attack I.M.P too. Moxxie tells them that their attacks are useless, because he has stronger versions of their powers. Looms then lets out a huge shockwave which knocks them all out in an instant. Moxxie then teleports right infront of Kirby, and attacks him with red thunder. Kirby is electrocuted and struggles to stand up. He tries to attack them but Moxxie uses inhale as well, and attempts to inhale Kirby.

Kirby is almost sucked into Moxxie when something rushes infront of I.M.P and saves Kirby. Kirby looks up and sees that Dark Zan Partizanne saved him. He then sees Dark Flamberge, Dark Francisca, Dark Hyness Clone and Shadow Magolor Clone attacking Dark Hyness. Dark Zan Partizanne helps Kirby to his feet. Kirby and Dark Zan Partizanne then attack I.M.P together. They are then sent back. Kirby asks Blitzo what his plan is. Loona then grins evilly and says that he's planning something that has the power to destroy the universe successfully. Dark Hyness then takes out many Death Hearts and transforms them into dark versions of Kirby's friends. The death counterparts then take their normal counterparts and leave before Kirby can stop them. Moxxie then laughs evilly and is about to attack Kirby and his remaining allies, when suddenly he gets pushed down by Ostorius and Komarov. Moxxie then charges a huge dark magic blast and fires it at one of their men, Aurelius, while Millie does the same. This kills Aurelius in an instant, before they leave. Ostorius and Komarov then rush to Kirby and ask if he's alright. Kirby responds that he's fine, but they need to rescue their friends. The dark mages agree and say that they should set off to find their friends now. Dark Hyness Clone agrees and says that at least Dark Hyness is now dead. Suddenly, all of them hear an evil chuckle behind them. The Star Allies are shocked. Shadow Magolor Clone asks how they are still alive when they was just flung back. Millie laughs and says that she now has super regeneration, so any damage to him will heal in a few seconds. He then says that she will not let Blitzo’s plan fail this time, and then fires a huge blast at the Main Reactor of the Halberd, making the whole ship go down. They then laughs evilly and teleports away before Kirby could attack him. Shadow Magolor Clone then says that they need to evacuate the ship. Kirby summons a Warp Star and all the Star Allies jump onto it, and attempt to leave the ship, then arriving outside. They watch as the Halberd explodes in the air and crashes down into the Orange Ocean from a distance. Then, Axe Knight, Mace Knight and Sailor Waddle Dee arrive to the heroes. They say that they need to defeat the new monsters on Dream Land and defeat I.M.P. They all agree and run off to start defeating monsters in Dream Land. Kirby looks up into the last star in the sky, which is quickly covered by a cloud. I.M.P then looks back from their home, grinning.

The Star Allies go around Dream Land, when they suddenly get stopped by a huge tree. It reveals itself to be Nathor Woods, and then starts attacking the Star Allies, but fails. Upon its defeat, Rick, Kine, Coo, Gooey, Adeleine, Ribbon and Bandana Waddle Dee are released from its branches before it explodes. Then Bandana Waddle Dee asks Kirby what's going on. Kirby explains that I.M.P captured the rest of the Star Allies and is planning something very evil which would end the universe. Adeleine says that they need to stop I.M.P before his plan succeeds. The heroes then move on and fight Poison Herseppe, Agrippa, Gaiseric, Demon Taranza, Helluvan Marx, Kelakian Magolor, Marunian Daroach, Hazbinian Mage-Sisters and Pax Romanian Hyness. This frees all of the Star Allies and all the Star Allies are finally back together again. Suddenly, Meta Knight senses something and stabs Galaxia into the ground, which creates three mach tornadoes. The dust then clears and Demon-Angel Moxxie is revealed. Demon-Angel Moxxie then yells "KIRBY! YOU WILL PAY FOR DEFEATING MY PREVIOUS FORM! **(referencing Moxxie)** I WILL NOW DEFEAT YOU WITH MY NEW BLIZZARD ABILITIES! PREPARE TO DIE FROM THE DEMON BEAST OF THE SKIES!". He then attempts to destroy the heroes with his new ice abilities, but fails. The heroes then fight Demon Susie, Demon Lamar and Burning Stolas. Then, a dimensional rift appears, and reveals Lacuna EX. Lacuna EX then looks at the Star Allies and roars. After minutes of a raging battle, Lacuna EX is defeated, and is sent into the death world once more, but tries to bring Kirby with her. However, before Kirby and Lacuna are fully sent to the death world, the Warp Star appears and zaps Lacuna, causing her to disintegrate in pain. The Warp Star then brings Kirby back to the normal world. Kirby looks around before he leaves the death world, and sees the shadows of what seems to be Nestor, Eutropius, and Domitianus. After Kirby leaves the death world, an orange butterfly is seen flying around, before summoning a portal to lead it back to the living world.

The heroes arrive at I.M.P Base, and see that it looks darker than before, there is also a purple aura surrounding the base. Then Kirby suddenly inhales a huge blast without thinking. Seeing where the blast came from, they see the Death Starcutter. It roars angrily and then attempts to attack them, when the Lor Starcutter comes and defends the heroes. The heroes then hop onto the Lor Starcutter and fight the Death Starcutter, which then loses and crashes into the distance. Electric Millie then appears and laughs evilly. Kirby gets angry and tells him why he is doing this. King Dedede adds doesn't he know much pain he's causing the citizens of the universe. Electric Millie grins and tells Kirby that the Star Allies caused her so much pain for many years and now it's time that they feel the same. Kirby says that no matter what he does, they will never beat them. Millie then laughs again and says that the true fight is beginning now, she then drops a Jamba Heart and leaves before saying "prepare to be defeated in the hands of the Immediate Murder Professionals.". The Jamba Heart then reveals itself to be Lornos Kirby. Lornos Kirby fights the heroes with Jamba Hearts and stronger powers than Kirby, but he and Electric Millie still lose. The heroes are then about to move on, when they hear a loud moan. The creature then reveals itself to be Zero-Eight. Zero-Eight gets memories of all Zero-Seven’s defeats from Kirby. He gets angry, but then he has memories of every related Dark Matter's defeats (Dark Mind, Dark Matter, Magolor Soul, Void Termina, Dark Nebula, etc.). He then feels their emotions. Then all the emotions start fighting with each other in Zero-Eight's mind. Zero-Eight then loses control and his negative emotions form a monster in his mind called "Astral Mind". Astral Mind then transforms Zero-Eight back into Zero-Seven, then transforms Zero-Decem into Zero-Six, then to Zero-Five, then Sero-Four, Zero-Three, Zero-Two and finally Zero-Two into the first Zero. Then Astral Mind takes control of the original Zero, and transforms him into a monster called Astral Zero. Astral Zero then screams, and the fight begins. Astral Zero fights the heroes with Dark Matter and Jamba Hearts, but loses. Then Astral Zero forces Kirby into the sky and bashes Kirby many times, using negative energy to destroy the pink puff. But Kirby summons the memories of the good times in his life and charges it into a blast, Astral Zero also charges all the negative energy of Dark Matter into a blast. The two blasts then hit each other, but with the help of Kirby's friends, Kirby's positive blast beats Astral Zero's negative blast. This causes Astral Mind to leave Zero's body. Astral Mind then turns black and disintegrates. Then Zero's body starts to glow and Zero's eye changes into a face very similar to Kirby's. Zero then says "Goodbye... Kirby... and thanks for giving me a chance to feel happiness again.", Zero then explodes and disappears. Kirby then holds one of the gleams of Zero's remains and then the heroes move on to fight I.M.P.

The heroes arrive at the center of Dark Jambandra Base. They then see nothing, but hear Blitzo's voice. Jamba Blitzo then appears. Jamba Blitzo gets angry and screams why must Kirby always get in the way of his master’s plans. Kirby then responds that heroes always fight for what's right and never let evils win. Jamba Blitzo says that no matter what they do, they will never stop him from reviving the true Dark Lord. Jamba Blitzo then says that once the Dark Lord destroys the universe, he'll be the last being standing in the universe, and that no one will stop him. He then charges all the power inside of him to turn into his Jamba form. Jamba Blitzo then tells Kirby to get ready for the final battle. The battle then starts, the heroes struggle to defeat Jamba Blitzo with all his powers, but thanks to their determination and power of friendship, they win against him. Jamba Blitzo then gets angry and yells "HOW?!". Kirby and the Star Allies say that they'll always win, because when they're together, they're unstoppable. Kirby then tells him to stop, and that they don't have to fight anymore, they can just be friends, and live happily. He then offers his hand to Jamba Blitzo, but he smacks it away, he then says "Listen here, pink puffball. I don't need your friendship. I don't need your happiness. AND I MOST DEFINITELY DO NOT NEED YOU!!! I will resurrect the Dark Lord, and destroy you!". Jamba Blitzo then summons a blast which then hits Kirby, sending him back. Meta Knight, King Dedede and Bandana Waddle Dee check to see if Kirby is hurt and glare at him. The rest of the Star Allies then attempts to attack Jamba Blitzo, but he summons a force field around himself. He then summons the last Death Heart and throws it into the now fully-completed Death Heart. A dark cloud appears and then reveals I.M.P Termina. Jamba Blitzo then cheers and tells I.M.P Termina to destroy the Star Allies and then the universe. I.M.P Termina just looks at Jamba Blitzo. Then he gets stabbed by a thin tentacle from I.M.P Termina. The heroes look in shock and Dark Hyness groans and says "W... WHY?". I.M.P then begins to speak "You dare command me, sir? I AM NOT YOUR TERMINA, IM HELLWRATH OCTAVIA, THE TRUE LORD OF DARKNESS! A PITIFUL PAWN LIKE YOU WILL NEVER COMMAND ME! I SHALL ABSORB YOUR POWER, AND THEN COMPLETE MY DESTINY TO DESTROY THE UNIVERSE!" Hellwrath Octavia then laughs and stabs another boss, Corrupted Loona with more thin tentacles. Kirby tries to save both people, but is stopped by Octavia's blast. She then absorbs Jamba Blitzo and Corrupted Loona fully and transforms into Ultimate Dark V-Octavia. She then jumps off the planet and starts his motives of destroying the universe.

Kirby's friends wonder what to do, and ask Kirby. But Kirby is lost in his mind. He failed to stop I.M.P and the destruction of the universe. Now all he could do, was wait for his destruction to happen. Then Kirby's friends all touch Kirby, and show their happy moments with Kirby in his mind. Kirby then sees all the flashbacks with him and his friends having fun. Kirby then feels all the positivity from his friends. Then all the positive energy forms a new sword called Jacklyia. Kirby then transfers some of its power to his friends and they all set off to fight Ultimate Dark V-Octavia, as well as I.M.P, and save the universe.

Kirby's friends arrive to Ultimate Dark V-Octavia, who is destroying many planets and being driven by Blitzo and the rest of I.M.P, including Stolas. Ultimate Dark V-Octavia then senses their presence and laughs, saying that their positivity will never beat his negativity. Kirby says that they will win, because that's what heroes do. Ultimate Dark V-Octavia then roars and starts the battle. Ultimate Dark V-Octavia will rush at Kirby, using the powers of Jamba Blitzo, I.M.P, and herself, as well as many of his own (such as summoning black holes or dimensional rifts). But the Star Allies beat Ultimate Dark V-Octavia with the power of Jacklyia. They then enter his body and fight his blood vessels, then the clouds from his mind, and then his core shell. After his core shell is defeated, the heroes are sent out of Ultimate Dark V-Octavia's body. Ultimate Dark V-Octavia then summons wings and uses them for wind pressure, while keeping his former attacks, but still loses, which causes the heroes to enter his body again. They then see I.M.P, Octavia, Stella and Stolas trapped by tentacles in the body. Ultimate Dark V-Octavia's core then appears and smiles at them. He tells them that he'll win, and finally complete his goal to destroy the universe. Kirby tells him that they'll defeat him, and bring peace to the universe once more. Ultimate Dark V-Octavia's core then fights the heroes, but loses, even due to all his efforts, he turns white and the heroes and sent out his body once more. Kirby then sees the cast falling down into the depths of her body, and saves them all. Moxxie then quietly says "Kirby..." and they all pass out.

The heroes are then sent out of Ultimate Dark Octavia's body while Ultimate Dark Octavia jumps out of its body. Ultimate Dark Octavia then gets angry and summons her Dark Matter form. Kirby then glares at him with the other Star Allies and they all summon a friendship blast from Jackylia. Ultimate Dark Octavia also summons a death blast from her eye. The two lasers then clash and fight against each other. Ultimate Dark Void gets hit four times, and then summons all the negative energy in the universe into his laser, this causes his laser to overpower Kirby's laser. Just as the Star Allies think that they might lose, Millie, along with the rest of the trapped, grab onto Jacklyia and nods at Kirby while Kirby nods back at them with a smile. They all then summon an even bigger laser and overpower Ultimate Dark Octavia's laser, which causes Ultimate Dark Octavia to get hit by the laser and gets weakened. Seeing this, Kirby uses Jackylia to summon all the memories of his friends and former enemies (Domitianus, Nestor, Eutropius) and then sends all the memories at Ultimate Dark Void, then his friends bash into Ultimate Dark Octavia. Finally, Kirby charges all the positive energy of the universe into his sword and slashes Ultimate Dark Octavia. This causes Ultimate Dark Octavia to collapse, which causes victory for the Star Allies.

Later, Kirby wakes up on Planet Popstar surrounded by all his friends and the citizens of Dream Land. Meta Knight tells him that Ultimate Dark Octavia was defeated, and then congratulates Kirby. King Dedede then puts a medal on Kirby and everyone cheers. Meta Knight gets tears in his eyes and tells Kirby that he has grown so much and that he is very proud of him. Kirby gets tears in his eyes too and cheers with happiness. Then Blitzo arrived and heads to Kirby and apologizes to Kirby for everything he and the rest of I.M.P did to him for the past few years. Kirby forgives him and says that now peace has finally returned to the universe. Kirby's friends then go to them and all cheer along with the rest of Dream Land, they all then look at the screen and wave goodbye as the game ends.

There is an ending cutscene, where an unidentified boss looks down at Kirby from a distant planet, and tells Kirby to prepare, for the true bringer of destruction is coming.
