"How?!" the mirror dweller yelled as he turned toward his enemy, his remaining eye blazing with rage. "How?! How did you get this much powerful?! This is impossible! I will kill you! I will kill yo-"
"It's simple," Meta Knight said in a calm tone as he stood over his darker counterpart. "The more I lose, the stronger I become. You are me, you should know that I have nothing left."
Meta Knight stepped toward him, and Dark Meta Knight backed away, hissing at him like a terrified cat. The blue knight leaned forward... and said:
"Come back when you can put up a fight."
I've been thinking a lot more lately about where Dark Meta Knight would fit in my headcanon stories, and I think I have a good idea for it that I'll explain in full detail later. I don't draw him often too, and making him in grayscale while still saying that it's DMK and not Meta Knight is hard, because they are literally the same, but with a different colour palette. xD I guess the tattered cape is a good hint?
