On a peaceful day, the Toons relax themselves, from Cuddles and Flaky playing with a ball to Nutty being a hyperactive sugar addict as usual. Kirby in particular gazes at the sky while sitting in a grass field. A familiar fruit then drops from a tree and Kirby decides to give it a taste. Afterward, Kirby transforms into Hypernova Kirby and starts swallowing a huge amount of air. Flaky and Craig are first to be sucked into Kirby's maw. Meanwhile, Lifty and Shifty the kleptomaniac raccoons steal a bunch of junk, when suddenly Shifty is pulled away by Kirby's suction. At Kirby's mouth, Shifty tries to save himself from his closing jaw, but this was unsuccessful as the pink menance chomps Shifty into an oblivion. At Pop's house, the survivors hides from Kirby and are filled with dread, especially Chef Pee Pee and Toothy. However, Disco Bear seems oblivious at the dangers loaming outside as he dances without a smidgen of fear. Presumably from hearing Disco Bear's grooving alongside the screams of Chef Pee Pee, Kirby wraps his mouth around the chimney and begans inhaling. Several of the Toons who resided in the house were consumed by Kirby, including his rival King Dedede, who tries to latch onto a door but fails. Kirby celebrates his meal with a victory dance, only for the closing iris to suddenly suck him up like a vaccum and crush him.
