I know this isn't my normal type of story. But this is my version of the origin of the Mario Bros and the rest of the Star Children. It will be vastly different from the Nintendo version down the line. I hope you enjoy!
Several storks flew through the air, each carrying a single baby. All except one, which held two. They had been flying for days now and were approaching their destination. They would arrive soon. It would take one more day at the most.
Suddenly, a wizard like being flew through the air on a broom, and collided with the stork that carried two children, Stealing one of them. All the storks scattered, trying to escape the attacker. It managed to hit one more stork, Stealing the strange child it held.
It was going to attack the others, but realised that he wouldn't catch them in time. He didn't mind much, however. He had two of them. That should be enough to start his plans. He flew off, away from the storks.
Three storks get shot down by cannonballs, two of the children are caught in nets. Koopa Troopas grab the two children, ignoring the last that is falling through the air. They couldn't reach him. They had enough of them anyway. There was no point to save him, in their eyes. The child fell through the air, into the water below.
The strange wizard being flew toward a cave with the two children. In the cave were several beings like him, but their robes were differently colored. The kidnapper presented the two children to the others. One child a human, the other a strange turtle-ox hybrid.
A stork flies over the ocean to a strange land. It lands on the terrace of a castle, and leaves a baby there. Then the stork flew away as a woman comes onto the terrace to claim her child.
Another stork flew into a jungle, and after pain staking searching, found the treehouse of which the animal child would know as their home.
As the rest of the storms reached their destination, several Koopa Troopas gather around the two kidnapped children that they had trapped. One with a purple shell approaches them and grabs one, telling the Koopa Troopas that this one shall receive more care than the other.
The wizard beings sense the immense power with both children that had been brought to their cave. They decide the human possesses more power than the hybrid being, and so the human should now receive more care. A handful of wizards take the turtle-ox and go off to take care of him. The original kidnapper approaches the odd being and shops the others away.
"Hello, little one." He says. "Thet were foolish to not choose you. They see only ultimate potential and not what fraction of that will be achieved. I doubt that pathetic human will ever come close to his true potential. But you… you will. With my training, you will become the most powerful being this realm has ever known. I name you…"
The being paused as he thought of the midst intimidating name he could conceive. "... Bowser."
There is the first chapter! Any guesses for who else the "wizard guy" kidnapped? I know his real name, don't worry. I will say his real name later on for anyone who is unfamiliar with his character. Until then, I'm TheUnknownBlock, and I'm out.
