MEMORY: Dumpster Dive

Stunned by Aris's kick, the not-Niffler gives one last hiss and then evaporates.

Kirby scrambles out of the dumpster, clutching the lightsaber, and hops onto the ground. As he brushes pieces of trash off his clothes, he notes that the playground is empty. Crap, he’s going to be late for class.

He trudges across the playground, hanging his head. Then he remembers something—he’s a wizard, and they’re not. He imagines coming back to the school and turning the bully into a beetle. As unrealistic as this fantasy is, it cheers him up just to think about the possibilities the future holds.

Back in the dumpster, all the rummaging around has left a hole that seems to stretch into the ground. It’s big enough for people to slide through, if they can stand to.

[MEMORY COMPLETE!]
