SPARKSTER VS MARIO
III

Kingdom of Zephyrus

Much has happened since Sparkster and Mario defeated Bowser. The Kingdom of Zephyrus has been repaired and everything is back to normal. Sparkster has hung up his armor, but still feels like he'll be using it soon enough. Jack, Sparkster's son, has graduated from Sparkster's homeschooling for teaching him to be a Rocket Knight. Sparkster has given Jack his approval of being a full-fledge warrior. Jack now stands by Sparkster's side, and fights with alongside his father to protect the kingdom from threats. But, sadly, nothing has happened since the attack from the Mushroom Kingdom folks. But Jack and Sparkster still have that urge to fight again.

"Sparkster, don't you think you're hetting too old to be fighting again?" Anna, Sparkster's wife, says.

"What? I am only old when I believe I can't defend you anymore, and that day hasn't come yet. I still have the skills, and even more wisdom. I will fight until the day I die!"

"I know that, Sparkster. I am just worried that that day will come sooner thn you think."

Sparkster kisses Anna on the cheek and puts his hand on her shoulder.

"You have nothing to worry about. I won't let you down. I'm not going to die any time soon."

Sparkster reassures her with another kiss on the cheek and a hug. Sparkster then goes outside and looks at his armor hanging in the shed. He stares at it for a minute and then back to the yard. He looks up at the sky, just waiting and wanting some more action. But before he goes back inside, he sees a flying airship blocking the sunlight from Zephyrus. Sparkster recognizes the symbol on the airship.

"Mario.."

Sparkster runs for his armor, jetpack, and sword. After suiting up for battle, Sparkster flies for the airship to stop the assault from it. Sparkster flies far and reaches the bridge of the airship. There, he breaks in to see minions that look like mushrooms. Sparkster runs past them and for the captain's quarters. Sparkster breaks down the door to see Mario standing in the middle of the room with his back to Sparkster.

"...Sparkster..I'm so happy-a to see-a you again-a."

Mario turns around and looks into Sparkster's hate-filled eyes.

"You got here faster-a than I would have-a ever suspected-a."

"Shut up, Mario! Why are you going to attack us? We made a treaty! I helped you and you helped me! We are allies!"

"Not anymore-a. You see, I have been realizing-a that the Mushroom-a Kingdom isn't quite as big-a as-a your kingdom-a. So-a, we are here to make our territory bigger-a! It isn't personal-a, just business!"

"Mario, you fat bastard! You can't do this! I won't let you conquer our land just because of your jealousy and greed!"

Sparkster feels a bump on his head, and collapses.


Yep, the third addition to the series.
