Sat in her ship, she furiously dug her nails into her face until it bled. Then, she took a look at the damage she'd done in a mirror. Maniacally, she began to laugh. She was so messed up it was unreal..
"Revenge..will be mine.." Stella cackled, unstably.
Pressing buttons on the control pad, she set off for Dreamland to earn back what was rightfully hers.

As the ship settled in the canyon near Whispy Woods, she slowly made her way out of the ship. "We have unfinished business, Meta Knight. I will earn what is rightfully mine and prove to you how insignificant you star warriors really are by eradicating the lot of you measly pests." She threatened through gritted teeth. Of course, Meta Knight wasn't actually there with her, she was just delusional.

Back at Castle Dedede, both Rebecca and Meta Knight knew something was wrong, but said nothing of it.

As the heavy and ceaseless rain continued to fall, a melancholic feeling filled the room.
Meta Knight watched as his lover slept, he looked so peaceful when he rested.
Rebecca was focused on what was going on, as she had seen an spacecraft enter the planet's atmosphere. "I doubt she would be back, unless she's driven." Becca snarled, frowning. "Her hatred is quite driving, though."
God, how much she hated Stella. Ever since she had been left behind in the war, she was driven by fury to fight Meta Knight as he'd supposedly left her to die. Of course, such was not the case. He hardly made it out alive as it was, and if he had been foolish enough to attempt to save her, he would've lost his life. Hatred had blinded her, so she couldn't see how wrong she was.
"Being so carefree might not be the best for the moment." Becca advised. "It's not that I'm paranoid, but I think Stella has returned."
This set a different mood in the room, a more worried feeling, perhaps even fearful?
"Perhaps you are right. I have been a bit laid-back and very careless." The Knight muttered in a low voice.
Honestly, she couldn't help but wonder what exactly was going on outside.

"I'll slit your wrists if you don't tell me where Meta Knight is!" Stella threatened with forceful tone of anger.
"We don't know and we wouldn't tell you anyway, traitor." Grace yelled across the room at the intruder.
With a clenched fist, she stormed over to Grace and Claire and attempted to punch them. Catching her fist, Claire threw it back at her which sent her flying across the room. Grumbling, she rubbed her bleeding hair and got up.
HOW DARE SUCH WEAKLINGS SHOW HER UP LIKE THAT AND TREAT HER SO POORLY!
Tightening the bandage on her left wrist, she fled down the hallway.
Much commotion had been caused by the old for, and by the time Meta Knight had heard of her presence in Castle Dedede, she was already at the door.
"So, we meet again. What a surprise, you're lounging around with your beloved friends..how cute. By the looks of it, he's settled down for a more tranquil life because being a villainous freak was never enough for him." She smirked, freakishly.
Waking up startled, Galacta Knight saw the unfolding scene.
"Stella!" He tried to shout, but the words died in his throat.
Drawing dual daggers, she crossed her forearms so they made an X shape.
"We have unfinished business, Meta Knight. Fight me or you are a coward." She challenged.
"The only coward is yourself, too afraid to accept you are wrong and having throw the blame onto someone else." Meta Knight shouted. Yet, she was too ignorant too hear his words.
"Fight me alone or else you'll lose your honour as a Knight." She repeated.
Scowling, he drew Galaxia and stepped forward, following her into the hallway.
Rebecca and Galacta Knight knew they couldn't intervene, or it would dishonour him.
With that being the case, they slumped down and observed the fight.

Stella's eyes narrowed, as she hastily ran at her opponent. Seeing where she was going, he sent a sword beam directly at her, which she only narrowly avoided. Raising her two daggers, she threw them both the sides of her rival, piercing both his wings. Laughing maniacally, she had noticed she had captured him and he could not move until she got the daggers off. Groaning in pain, he watched as blood dripped down his bat wings, knowing he was unable to move them.

Rebecca had had enough of it, so she shifted it dark matter form and disappeared into the floor. Appearing behind Stella, she stabbed her through her chest with a spike of dark matter. Immediately, she fell to the floor. Opening a portal for her, Galacta Knight stood back as Becca threw her through the portal.

As they did all that, Meta Knight passed out.

Dim lights faintly illuminated the room he was laid in. He couldn't remember what had happened or why he was even there; he just knew his wings stung. Attempting to flap them, he realized he regretted it immensely. A paralyzing shock rushed through his wings as he moaned in pain. Crying out in pain, he noticed Rebecca was stood in the corner of the room. When he did notice, he weakly said her name, in-between desperate gasps.

Whirling around, she noticed he was awake. Gosh, how much pain he must be in..she thought to herself, sympathetically. Walking on over to him, she looked into his eyes and saw just how painful it was for him. "Let me get cleaning that out for you, darling." She gently smiled. The amount of blood that covered his wings was enough to turn one's stomach. About a bucket full had dripped on to his wings when he was bleeding during the fight.
Somehow, his mask remained undamaged, aside from the previous marks, dents and scratches it had collected from the war and training sessions with Kirby.

Atop of a stool, Galacta Knight looked at his lover empathetically, he knew the pain of having his wings stabbed during a battle.
"Ok, I'm done! I do have a healing spell for you if you want me to use it." Becca offered.
"Please use it, this agony is insufferable." Meta Knight urged, shaking in pain.
Unhesitatingly, she used her elemental abilities to nurse him back into full health. "Better?" Becca asked.
"Definitely better now." He gave her a reassuring smile.
It was contagious, so she couldn't help but smile back.
"Glad I could help a great friend!~" Becca chirped with optimism.
Galacta Knight rushed over and wrapped his arms around Meta Knight, he was so glad he was ok.

As for Stella, she was in the deepest galaxy possible. There was no way she would find her way back.
