Chapter 2 of Revenge of Meta Knight is the second of seven chapters in this game-mode from Kirby Super Star and Kirby Super Star Ultra. In this chapter, Kirby must make his way along a beach side in search of means to get back into the air and pursue the Halberd once more.
Intro cutscene[edit]
The chapter begins with a scene showing Kirby being blown away by the Halberd's thrusters, landing in the sea near a tropical island.
Kirby gets blown away from the Halberd and falls into the sea.

Overview[edit]
The timer resets to 5000 as Kirby has to make his way across the shoreline as the Halberd gets away. At the end of this particular stretch, Kirby has to deal with the Mid-Boss Iron Mam.
In the next area, the Halberd can be seen retreating further into the distance, as the path leads downward and to the right.
The area following that is an underwater tunnel that auto-scrolls to the right, then upward out of the water, then to the right again.
After that room, Kirby can choose between the Parasol, Bomb and Wing abilities from Copy Essences before heading to the boss chamber. In the chamber, Kirby will have to contend with Whispy Woods, then after that, Twin Woods. Defeating these foes grants Kirby a Warp Star, which he can use to chase off after the Halberd once more.
Dialogue[edit]
Intermittently, the Halberd crew can be heard by the player through dialogue boxes which pop up as Kirby makes his way through the stage. The following table lists off their dialogue in chronological order:
| Chapter 2 Dialogue in Revenge of Meta Knight | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Character | Portraits | Dialogue (KSS) | Dialogue (KSSU) | Dialogue (Japanese) | Notes |
| Axe Knight |  
|
"Kirby's been blown to the ocean!" |
Looks like Kirby was blown into the ocean. |
「カービィは 海まで飛ばされたようです。」 |
|
| Mace Knight |  
|
"That was sure close." | Hmm. That was close. | 「ぷぅ。 ヤバかっただス。」 |
|
| Captain Vul |  
|
"I'll conquer Dream Land with the Halberd!" |
(American) My flying fortress, the Halberd, will now rule over all of Dream Land. (British) Our flying fortress, the Halberd, will now rule over all of Dream Land. |
「この空中戦艦『ハルバード』で、 プププランドは制圧されるのだ！」 |
The British English localization of Kirby Super Star Ultra changed "my flying fortress" to "our flying fortress". Because Japanese is a pro-drop language, the original text does not specify either way. The American version matches more closely with the original Kirby Super Star dialogue, and makes Captain Vul appear more egotistical. |
| Meta Knight |  
|
"Our first target... Grape Garden!" |
But first a little test. Off to Grape Gardens! |
「まずはこてしらべだ。 目標、グレープ・ガーデン！」 |
This is a reference to Grape Garden, the fourth level from Kirby's Adventure. Oddly enough, the Kirby Super Star Ultra dialogue incorrectly pluralizes its name as "Grape Gardens". |
| Axe Knight |  
|
"Kirby is flying back toward us!" |
Kirby is flying after us! | 「カービィが飛んできます！」 | |
| Mace Knight |
|
"Main cannon's ready. Shall we blast him?" |
OK. Main cannons online. Shall we fire? |
「主砲準備、オッケーだス。 1発いってみるだスか？？」 |
|
| Captain Vul |  
|
"All right. Shoot him!" | Fire away! FIIIIRE! |
「よし、ドカーンといけ！ ドッカーンと！！」 |

Bosses: Whispy Woods & Twin Woods[edit]
- Main article: Twin Woods
At the end of the stage, Kirby must do battle with Whispy Woods. The fight proceeds as normal until he is defeated, when Kirby must then drop down into a lower area and find Twin Woods below. Twin Woods behaves similarly to Whispy, though they gain a few added attacks; being able to spin rapidly to shake their canopies and exchange trunk sections with each-other. Despite this novelty, they are just as simple to defeat as solo Whispy.
