All's Not Fair in Love and War.

     AN: Mario and any character that you recognize in this story do not belong to me. They belong to Shigeru Myamato and the bigwigs at Nintendo. I am just borrowing them for a little while. This story is rated R for violence and sexual situations. Also, please do not forget to review. I really appreciate them, flames and all.

Prologue.

     `Bowser Koopa sat in his private study at his summer home, Neon Castle. He needed to get away from it all for a while, and his study was where he liked to relax. Contrary to common views of Bowser, he was not dumb. He loved reading, especially about Koopa history. Reading about the history of the Koopa race made Bowser a good king, or so he thought. It was one of the reasons why he wanted the Mushroom Lands so much; they had rightfully belonged to his family a long time ago, before the Great Koopa-Mushroom Wars.

At the moment, Bowser was indulged in a book entitled 'Masters of the Koopa Race.', until he heard a knock at the door.

     *Come in!* Bowser growled, angry that he had been disturbed.

     The door opened and Kamek walked in slowly. Kamek was ancient, as old as the hills. His face was wrinkled; his entire body seemed small in his large wizarding robes. He was the all-powerful Chief of the MagiKoopas, and Bowser's right hand man, now that Kamek was finished caring for Bowser.

     *Whaddaya want?*  Bowser grumbled, not looking up from his book.

     *All is ready for your attack, sire.* Kamek announced proudly. *Everything is in perfect order.*  Kamek waited for his Master's order.

     *Good,* Bowser smiled, all of his sharp white teeth showing. He stood up, and he towered over Kamek. Bowser was nearly eight feet tall and very heavyset, enough to crush all of his enemies if he chose to do so in that gruesome way.

     *I will go to the troops. The Mushrooms will never expect THIS to happen!*

     Bowser and Kamek stood together and laughed loudly. The Mushrooms would rue the day that they ever trusted Bowser.
