MARIO VS BOWSER!!!
Prologue
It was just another normal day in the Mushroom Kingdom. The sky was a bright powder blue with puffy white clouds floating lazily within it. Princess Peach stood on the balcony of her room, gazing over her kingdom; the rolling green hills, all the colorful flowers, and the little town she and her people called Toad Town. Past Toad Town on the outskirts of Dimble Woods was the Mario Bros. house. Mario and Luigi would often visit the princess; they were the only other human beings that lived in the Mushroom Kingdom.
Peach sighed. "What a nice day." There weren't many "nice days" in the Mushroom Kingdom with Bowser around. It was a hobby of his, capturing the princess, forcing Mario (and sometimes Luigi) to go and save her. In fact, Bowser captured Peach so much, she had befriended the Koopa Troopa who guarded her cage. She often played cards or chess with him and made some small conversation. His name was Konner and he was a very kind Koopa actually. But, even with Konner, Peach always longed for something more when she sat in the iron cage made just for her in Bowser's castle. Mario. Mario was the best person she had ever met; kind, caring, loyal, brave, and so much more. Peach was always tense with worry when Mario finally came to fight Bowser. She always was thinking about the worst possible outcome: what if Bowser won? It never happened, of course, but there were times when Bowser was inches away from taking away Mario's life. But Mario always pulled through.
I'm so happy I live here, Peach thought as she surveyed her kingdom. Even if it does mean I'll be captured every week or so.
Bowser sat in his huge living room, pondering something. It was the question he would always come close to answering, but could never get it right: how can I beat Mario? No matter what he tried, that stupid little plumber always got the best of him. A few times Bowser would be this close to slitting his enemy's throat, but it only takes that much room to lose.
"Whatcha thinking about?" Bowser Jr asked, disrupting Bowser's thoughts. Bowser Jr and his seven adopted siblings, the Koopalings, were also in the living room, playing around in the open area. Bowser Jr, or as Bowser liked to call him, Junior, was Bowser's only son, so Bowser often told Junior his developing plans.
"Oh, I'm just contemplating how to beat Mario," Bowser answered his son. Then he slouched a little. "Again," he grumbled. He went back to listing ideas in his mind.
"Ah. I thought that might be what's on your mind," Junior said and went back to playing with Larry. Of the seven Koopalings, Junior got along with Larry the most.
"What was that all about?" Larry asked Junior.
"Oh, Dad's just thinking of ways of how he can beat Mario again," he replied.
"That's what I thought," Larry replied. "Hey, maybe we can try to think of ways to beat Mario too! Or at least how we can capture Peach."
"That's not a bad idea," Junior finally said after thinking over what his friend suggested. "I'll get the other Koopalings' attention." He cleared his throat a little and walked over to a corner away from where Bowser was sitting. Then he let out a loud roar.
"HEY GUYS! COME OVER HERE!" he shouted. That caught all the Koopalings' attention.
"You didn't have to yell!" Roy got up from his spot. "We heard you the first time!" All the Koopalings got up and walked over to the corner of the room where Bowser Jr and Larry stood. Bowser just kept on thinking.
"So," Iggy said. "What's the plan?"
"That's the whole reason I called you guys over here!" Junior said. "We need a plan to finally beat Mario."
"Well, it's obviously going to include capturing the princess," Wendy said.
"Well no duh, Wendy!" Morton roared. Morton loved to talk. And he was very loud, so it was a bit of a problem sometimes.
"Morton, be quiet! You'll bring the castle down with how loud you are!" Junior scolded.
"Sorry," Morton apologized.
"Well," Ludwig jumped in, "I think we should be involved this time. It's been awhile, and I really could use a good fight with Mario."
"That's true," Roy commented. "It has been awhile since I could get my claws onto that pesky plumber."
"Okay, I like this idea, but how do we nab Peach?" Junior asked.
"Isn't there going to be a huge party for Peach's birthday?" Lemmy piped up.
"Oh yeah, that's perfect! But how will kidnap her?" Iggy asked.
"How about a huge cake? It would make the most sense," Ludwig replied.
"Well, I think we have our plan!" Junior announced. "Let's let Dad know!" The eight Koopas ran over to Bowser, who was still contemplating what he should do to beat Mario. He spotted his children (well, child and adopted children) running towards him with excited looks on their faces.
"Hey guys. What's up?" he asked.
"We've developed a plan for capturing Peach!" Junior exclaimed. Bowser perked up at this. He would have never expected his kids to come up with a plan to defeat Mario. But, then again, they were his kids.
"Wow. Alrighty, let's hear it!" he replied.
"Okay," Junior began. "So, Peach's birthday is coming up, right? So, we plan an airship and set off to the castle on her birthday. We will have made a giant cake that me and the Koopalings will hide in. We'll sneak up on Peach and capture her in the cake once we pop out and scare her. Then we'll take her back to our castle and we can hold Mario off so you can think of an idea of how to beat Mario."
Bowser stared at his one and only son, amazed. He and the Koopalings had thought of a plan? And this good? They would be great heirs to the throne.
"I-" Bowser started, but he couldn't find words. He tried again. "I'm amazed! That's an amazing plan! Now, let's get started!"
And so the plan carried out. Bowser's children captured Peach on her birthday forcing Mario, Luigi, and two Toads to go on yet another adventure. They ventured through seven worlds, ending each world with a Koopaling battle. The eighth world would bring the two Toads to chicken out and head back to the castle. Luigi was tempted to go back with them, but Mario convinced him otherwise. And now here are the two brothers, standing in front of the final castle in which a bridge had just formed to lead to.
"You ready, Luigi?" Mario asked his quivering brother.
"N-no," Luigi stammered.
"Well, the time is now, so let's-a go."
Luigi sighed. "Okey dokey."
