Eye for an Eye

Chapter One: Birth

"Ludwig? Ludwig!" Bowser yelled from down the hall. "Get in here... now!"

"Coming father!" Ludwig yelled back, nervous of what was to come. Ludwig ran to his fathers chamber, starring at the giant doors, made of pure silver. He grasped the handles and pulled it open with all his strength, he was proud of himself for opening it alone, he was only 6 after all!

"Uh... yes father?" Ludwig looked up at his dad, sitting on his throne.

"Ludwig... come over here... I need to show you something."

"Uh...o-ok..." Ludwig was scared of Bowser... his father was never very nice to him, he often hit him just for silly mistakes... what could Ludwig of done now? Ludwig walked very slowly towards his dad, awaiting a hit on the head or something like that... but it was then he noticed something in his hands.

"What's that father?" Ludwig peered curiously at the object.

"My son... I would like you to meet your new brother...Bowser Jr." Bowser smiled as he stood up, and lowered Jr. down for Ludwig to see.

"Oh wow!" Ludwig jumped up and down with excitement.

"But wait..." Ludwig stopped.

"I know Ludwig...your mom died a year ago..." Bowser sighed with regret.

"So this means that... he's adopted...right?" Ludwig stared at the koopa wrapped in a blanket.

"Yes... but... even though you... and soon the others... know, I dont want Jr. to find out anytime soon Ludwig...your the first ive told about your new sibling, because I know... when the times right... youll be the one to tell him that he's adopted."

Ludwig looked at his dad in shock. "Me? Why me? Can't Lemmy or Iggy do it? Their only a year younger than me!"

"No Ludwig...i need you to...because...well... it's hard to explain Ludwig... I don't think youll understand until your older." Bowser gave both his sons a hug. "Now... can you please go get your brothers and sisters? It's time I told them about the new arrival."

"Of course father..." Ludwig glared at him... and started to walked out of the room.

"Lud...L-Ludwig..." A small voice chirped out from behind him. Ludwig froze.

"Ludwig? Did you hear that? He said your name!" Bowser smiled as he looked at Ludwig and Jr., obviously very proud.

"Ya... I heard..." Ludwig smirked as he continued out the doorway.

There was chapter one! For all who are confused... here is an age chart of the koopalings during the chapter.

(I know these are VERY short chapters... but there will be a lot of them, so the story will still have some length!)
