Disclaimer: I do not own the Mario Brothers, only the story unfolding below, and some of the characters like Solance.
Queen Sunstar: Here is a little summery. When Brighton is critically wounded by Lowser, Eldstar must do the unthinkable by giving Waluigi, Wario, Mario, and Luigi each one of the elements so they can finally defeat Lowser forever.
Twila: Hmm, looks interesting, dear. One thing, what do you have against Brighton? I know he is a loudmouth and all, but why is it that he is the one injured in your stories?
Brighton: Yea, why is that?
Queen Sunstar: You were the only one that I could all but murder to give our heroes the focus to save the day. Read the story, and don't forget to review!
Brotherhood
Chapter One: Battle in the Sky
It was late evening. Brighton, the sun, prepared to slip beyond the horizon, where Solance, the second sun and Brightons partner in the sky, was waiting. Solance would shine for twenty-four hours, and it would go back to Brighton. Behind him, Twila was starting her twenty-four hour shift in the sky. Suddenly, Solance screamed. Brighton turned, and saw a dark shadow, in the shape of Bowser, except it had wings.
"Lowser, you dare threaten my skies? Solar Fire Rage!" Brighton attacked. Lowser merely weathered the attack.
"Brighton, prepare to be destroyed! Flaming fire breath!" Lowser returned fire. The attack hit Brighton, hard.
"I am the sun, you fool! Fire is my element!" Brighton absorbed most of the attack, and returned it, with double the power. Lowser screamed.
"You are the fool! Die, Brighton!" Lowser's next attack slammed into Brighton, and knocked him out of the sky. Solance screamed again. Lowser turned his attention on his next victim, Twila.
"You are coming with me!" Lowser warped over to the Moon, and captured her in seconds. He left the sky.
Solance pushed himself harder, trying to catch up with the falling Brighton. He reached out with both arms, and finally caught the falling sun.
"Brighton?" He gasped, panting from the flight. There was no answer.
"No1 Brighton, come on, wake up! You have to wake up!" Solance knew he was getting hysterical. He flamed out, and appeared in Eldstars Haven.
"Eldstar!" Solance called. The ancient star came.
"Solance, what happened? Who did this?" Eldstar asked, is voice calm. He was old, and wore a circlet on his head. He had a long white mustache.
"I don't know, Sire, but Brighton came under attack by a Bowser look-alike with wings." Solance said.
"Bowser look-alike with wings? Oh great creator, no, not Him, again!" Eldstar screamed.
"Who, Sire?" Solance asked.
"He, the vile, ancient Ruler of Kooplin, the one Koopalin himself, died fighting! He is the shadow, Lowser! He has come back again!" Eldstar cried.
"How do we stop something that powerful? If it made short work of Koopalin, who was pretty powerful, It will make short work of us!" Solance said.
"I will give the power of the four elements, Water, Earth, Fire, and Electricity to four humans on Earth. Bring me Sandstone." Eldstar said.
"Yes, Sire." Solance flamed out, to Starworld. He went straight to Sandstones cave.
"Sandstone? Are you home?" Solance called.
A golden yellow Yoshi with pale gold horn stepped forward.
"Solance, I am ready to go. I have foreseen these events." Sandstone said. She moved with the grace of a trained Dreamspeaker. She was one of the Hallowed Ones, a very powerful Yoshi. There were four Hallowed Ones, Windstone, Firestone, Sandstone, and Starstone. Starstone is the ruler of all Yoshi, and was the bridge to the great Creator. Firestone worked fire, and was red like fire, Windstone handled water, and was blue, the color of his element. Starstone was a deep dark purple, the color of late twilight. Starstone had silver wings. Firestone was an earthling, meaning he had no wings, or a horn. Starstone had a horn. She was the last of the winged Uni's. Sandstone was a Uni, and Windstone was a pegi, meaning he had wings. Solance stepped forward.
"Lets go, then." He said. He flamed out, while Sandstone dream traveled, and they arrived at Eldstars Haven.
"Sandstone, I have a favor to ask of you. I need you to contact these people via a dream. They are Waluigi, Wario, Mario, and Luigi. Tell them to come to me." Eldstar said.
"I will do that now. They are asleep." Sandstone said.

Queen Sunstar: The chapter is rather long, sorry. That is it for now. Next chapter: Night Visions.
Brighton: Why can't you go after Solance for a change? Why is it me you are going after?
Queen Sunstar: I already answered that one. By taking you out of the picture for a while, I am giving our Heroes the focus they need to save you.
Brighton: You mean I am going to live?
Queen Sunstar: keep pestering me, and I may be tempted to remove you entirely from the story!
Brighton: You wouldn't dare!
(Queen Sunstar hands Brighton a printout of a later chapter)
You dared. You will fix it, right?
Queen Sunstar: If you be good and stop pestering me, I may put you back into the story.
Twila: Don't forget to review, now!
