It uses the main melody of "[[Bouncing Boss Battle]]", the standard boss battle theme in ''Kirby: Triple Deluxe'', which is one of the two main motifs of the game's soundtrack. The title is meant to indicate a sense of bewitching beauty illuminated by the moon, the frustration that Queen Sectonia experiences as she attempts to defeat [[Kirby]], and the fatal throes Sectonia has subjected herself to in order to take control of [[Popstar]].}}</onlyinclude>{{:{{ROOTPAGENAME}}|transcludesection=lead}} | '''"Fatal Blooms in Moonlight"''' (originally known as '''"Moonstruck Blossom"'''{{#ifeq:{{PAGENAME}}|Fatal Blooms in Moonlight|<ref>[https://kirbydevpostarchive.tumblr.com/post/164950139781/hal-laboratory-%E3%82%A4%E3%82%B7%E3%83%80-hallaboratory-09242014-923 Archived Miiverse Post]</ref>}}) is a musical piece from ''[[Kirby: Triple Deluxe]]'', composed by [[Hirokazu Ando]], which serves as the theme of the first battle with [[Flowered Sectonia]] and [[Soul of Sectonia]].

"Fatal Blooms in Moonlight" is a remix of sorts of "Bouncing Boss Battle". However, it is much slower-placed and includes more elegant instrumentation, starting with a quiet piano intro and continuing into a fuller arrangement. In its main segment, the song runs at about 160 beats per minute in the key of G minor. Like its basis, the song still features electronic instruments along with brass and synths, but it also includes a female vocal as its lead instrument.
