Between Dream and Nightmare

I own none of the Mario characters, places, items, nor anything of the Mario Series.

Summary: In this war tale, all of Marios old enemies smash over the Mushroom Kingdom. How will the Mario crew survive?

PS. Even if Link from Legend of Zelda is mentioned in the first chapter, he doesnt appear.

Chapter 1: The Dream

It's a calm night in the Mushroom Kingdom. Mario had to work all day long because Bowser broke a water pipe during their last fight. Since many Toads homes were lacking water, Mario could boost up his plumber work. The main pipe, the one that was broken during the battle, was at the other end of Toad Town.

Exhausted, Mario went to sleep happy. He thought first of all this situation. If he is busy repairing pipes around the town, Bowser would have time to counter-attack. Hey, Luigi is not useless after all!

Mario began to dream. He dreamt of the night when he defeated Wart. He also dreamt of Luigi, Princess Peach and Toad who helped him that night.

Mari and his friends made their way to the golden castle in the clouds. The battle against Ninjis, Ostros, and Phantos was nearly finished and the last battle against Wart was about to begin. All four entered the battle arena.

-I am the great Wart! Nobody can stop me!

Then Wart attacked. The bubbles flew out of his mouth and toward the heroes. Peach caught a vegetable from the machine and threw it to Wart, who shut down his mouth before.

-Oh no, said the Princess.

-Everyone! Pick up a vegetable! And when Wart opens his mouth, throw it in! Toad ordered.

Everyone picked up a vegetable from the machine. Wart opened his mouth to attack again, and the four friends counter-attacked at the same time. three vegetables entered Warts mouth and the frog passed away.

The four heroes were acclaimed by the Subcons and sent to a platform in front of the crowd. This was only Marios dream, so nobody else heard what the Subcons told them.

-Wart is back! He still hates vegetables but he no more cares!

-How come? Mario asked.

-Well, he has found a way to enter the Mushroom Kingdom!

-Where would have he learned such a thing? Princess Peach asked.

-He apparently learned this spell in Hyrule, where he was temporarily in vacation from his evil deeds.

-Yeah, that's true! A SSB warrior named Link had seen him once!

-So I should really be careful about that.

Mario was about to wake up when one of the Subcons shouted:

-Today, don't go to the beach!

Mario woke up on this last sentence. Luigi was shaking him.

-Wake up, Mario! We are going to Sunny Mushroom Beach with the Princess, Toad and Yoshi today!
