Mushroom Kingdom Menace by WillBillXP
Prologue
[It is a dark night outside the mushroom castle. The guards are assuming their position. After all, a night attack on the castle would be disastrous. That's when the hammers struck their heads! Two elite hammer bros jumped the wall, and snuck into the castle.
Elite one: Ok, we are in position; we are unlocking the main gate.
General: Excellent work men, the operation is now underway.
The hammer bros jumped into a window with a bag. After knocking out the guards, they bagged the princess, but there was more to the plan.
[Cut to the lower floor of the castle
A small group of Koopa Troopas, accompanied by the typical goombas were sneaking through the castle corridors. Unfortunately for them, they were spotted! One of the Toads walking around the castle at the time yelled! He never saw the light of day again. No one heard him scream. Or so the Troopas thought.
Sergeant T: Red alert! Get all guards in here on the double!
The hall swarmed with Mushroom Guards. The koopas were outnumbered, but that didn't stop them.
Hammer Bros: Need backup? Take this! (Threw several hammers)
Many guards fell, and others were injured. Darkness was overwhelmed to them.
General: That was a close one. Did you two get the stars?
Elite two: Oh you bet. Bowser is going to be very pleased here. Got the bob-bombs?
General: We also got those. MEN! INITIATE THE OPERATION!
Bob-bombs were set up in several corners. They were placed carefully but quickly. After getting out of the castle, it went up in black smoke. Everyone in the castle was crushed, and a Massive Power Failure went through the mushroom Kingdom. Toad Town was cut off from all communications. But where was Mario? Wouldn't he do something?
Bowser was behind the scenes, waiting for "his" plan to be put into place. He had his own ideas
Bowser: Great work men. The mushroom Kingdom will be under my command soon. Let me see the Stars of Power.
He took the stars, and their power was his within one minute. Then he asked a question.
Bowser: Did you tie up Mario?
Elite Troopa: That is well, but what are you going to do? Kill him after all these years of failure?
Bowser: Worse….
Bowser walked into the Mario House, looked around to make sure Luigi wasn't home. Then, he did what he was going to do. A magnificent but fearful beam of power came from Bower's hands. It was as bright as the sun, but had a purplish color. Then, Mario was cold. Something terrible had happened to him. Bowser ran out of the Mario House laughing hysterically. Shortly after, the Koopa Army showed up to destroy Toad Town and the Nearby Mushroom City……….
Part One
[The screen fades to black, and then we see a dark castle on a volcanic Mountain. A strange and eerie, but luxurious room is zoomed into through a window. The room has red curtains and a red carpet. An iron bed is in the left hand corner. A cage sits near the window. On the stone walls of the room hang weapons such as crossbows, and torture devices such as stretchers.
Princess Peach was in the room, but she was surrounded by bars. She was confused, and scared. "Where am I?" She said out loud. She was answered by voice from the door to the room.
?????: You are at my castle, in my room.
It was Bowser, but his voice was tweaked to sound more menacing. Peach sighed, knowing she had been kidnapped once again, knowing that Mario would save her once again.
Peach: You do realize this is getting old. You know Mario Will save like he always does. Couldn't you think of a better scheme?
Bowser: But my lady, I have.
Peach: How dare you! A disgusting slob like yourself address me as your lady! –Shivers-
Bowser: You won't think of me as disgusting for long. Perhaps some of the people have figured my scheme out, but before you do figure out, why don't you look at your capital.
Bowser took a telescope and let peach out of her cell. She tried to run but was caught by guards.
Bowser: Look through it! I demand you do so!
So she did. It was a view of the mushroom city. It was on fire, and firebros were patrolling the abandoned streets. After anxiety built up after seeing the awful site, she looked at more things. It was shocking! Her people enslaved! Dead bodies in smashed cars and on the streets! It was as if the Koopa Kingdom had made "War of The Worlds" come to life in the Mushroom Kingdom.
Peach: NOOOOOooooo! This isn't happening! It CAN'T!
Bowser: It has princess; no one is here to save you now.
Peach: Please tell me Mario survived this! He must have!
Bowser: Mario isn't moving anytime soon. -Laughs-
Peach: You must have! No! It can't be!
Bowser: He is alive, death will not touch him. But he will rot!
Peach: You are torturing him! Let him out of your blasted chambers NOW!
Bowser: But that isn't happening. You see, I have tortured him in a different way, without touching him.
[As he says this line, the camera moves down and the Mario House is seen. All stuff in Bowser's description is happening
Bowser: You see princess; I was going to kill him after I had my army destroy your castle
Peach: WHAT!!!!!???!?!?!?!?! What did you do to that castle! It was built in honor of my 40th birthday! Why you……….
Bowser: LISTEN! But when the castle was destroyed, I thought of the smoke, as purple and black looking as a shadow. And I got this idea. I learned of this years ago. However only one with great power is capable of doing such a thing. It is the Curse of Dark Stone. It turns the victim to stone, and their mind is trapped in their deep sleep. A nightmare! They are in a world of Darkness! Spinning through immense torture and horrors! Oh, I had to do this to my all time enemy. The world is as black and purple as smoke against the night fires. And demons wrath this world! Screams come from it! And you know what else, you will never believe this!
Peach: NO! Don't tell me anymore! I'm going to throw up! Please, I never intended any of this! Stop this invasion, I beg you!
Bowser: But it will not stop, my soon to be wife.
Peach:……….. Okay like I would REALLY marry you? Get a life! I wouldn't marry you if you forced me. You aren't having control of my kingdom ANY time.
Bowser [to a soldier out of the room Soldier! Bring in the stars of power!
The stars were once brighter than brightest stars. But they were now dull, and blue. It appears that they lost all power to them. Peach started to cry
Peach: How could you do this?!
Bowser: I have my explanations. The power of the stars belongs to me! And if they are powerful enough to cast Mario into the Dark World, they are powerful enough for you to make yourself forget about your precious Mario, and fall for me!
He then put his hands in the air, and a pinkish, reddish swirl came from them. Then the princess was smiling at Bowser a minute later. She was falling for him! What? A hug? The kingdom of the mushrooms seems to officially be doomed. Bowser laughed, but not hysterically, but happily! What? No evil laugh? How could he not be happy? The princess would marry him in a few days, Mario was under a spell that would make his soul eventually rot, and his kingdom's boundaries would be extended miles across! No flaws here. Since the stars didn't have any energy in them anymore, they were disposed.
Part Two
[For a better mood, think of the theme when the Crystal Stars in PM: TTYD were returning to their original places when Mario was fighting the Shadow Queen
But then something happened. The stars began to light up! They were thrown into an incinerator! But everything caught on fire when they lit up! They flew out with tremendous force! When seen by survivors, the brightness of the Mushroom Kingdom was indeed remembered by those who lost hope. Some even regained hope as they saw the stars.
The first to see the stars were some enslaved toads, and confusion was among them.
Slave One: Look at that!
Slave Two: Wow, something Bright and Cheery!
Slave One: Is this a sign of hope?
Slave three: This reminds me of an old legend, based on and even older prophecy.
Other slaves: What prophecy?
Slave three: It goes like this: Occupation, destruction, enslavement will doom a kingdom. When all hope is lost and the Psycho ruler's plans are nearly complete, 7 stars of brightness and power will awake a sleeping hero.
Everyone: Wow!
The power stars soared through the sky until they reached the Mario House. [Music should end here A bright light surrounded Mario, who was fallen on the floor in a form of stone. It got brighter, and then the stone cracked. The stars were still there. Mario woke up, dazed and confused. Then he saw the stars. They were whispering to him. They whispered the story to him. Mario, being super shocked ran outside, seeing that it was true. However they did not tell him the entire story. An elite koopa was standing near the door, investigating what had happened.
Mario: Freeze! You aren't letting going until you tell me what Bowser is up to!
The Koopa tried to attack Mario, but he jumped, and ripped the helmet off. The Koopa was then suddenly scared, something they were prohibited to do.
Elite Koopa: Oh great! NO! Don't kill me!
Mario: You had better tell
Elite Koopa: OKAYOKAYOKAY! Bowser destroyed most of the mushroom kingdom stole the stars kidnapped the princess and cast a spell on her that's going to force her to marry him! He announced that to the Generals an hour ago and I overheard it!
Mario had his mouth open. The full scoop was out to him. Angered by the information, the remarkable but extra scary lines came out of Mario's Mouth
Mario: You and your pathetic army and coward ruler are going to die.
Suddenly the Koopa was shaking in fear. What the? No koopa that was in Bowser's army quivered in Fear. But then something happened: a green light appeared around the koopa and he removed his armor. A green koopa was revealed under it
Koopa: Thank you!
Mario: Huh?
Koopa: You have lifted my curse. The curse of the army
Mario: What are you talking about? (Note: Mario is sparing this guy because he wants to hear his story)
Koopa: I don't know why, but it seems that a few years ago, Bower's intelligence rose for some reason. He got smarter! But what's stranger is that he stole a book of spells from his retired Magikoopa advisor, Kamek. He placed a curse on all of us koopas just so we would follow orders better.
Mario: But you already followed orders?
Koopa: But we koopas were apparently didn't follow orders "good enough." I myself was completely aware what was going on even though I was under control. I don't know why I was aware but one thing is for sure, I wasn't happy about it.
Mario: How did it wear off?
Koopa: Wait! I was afraid when you said we were all going to die! Does fear cancel out the spell?
Mario: Maybe? You haven't tried to kill me yet, so I'm going to believe you. But if you pull any fast ones, you will be out off this planet before you can eve scream.
Koopa: Got it! By the way, my name is Ken. And about the princess incident, I think that what Bowser is doing is wrong and sick. I'll do anything I can to help you Mario.
Mario: Thanks, I really could need it now. It seems that I would be on my own if it weren't for you.
Ken: I think we can get going. You handled this rather well.
Mario: I think I did too. Now let's save this kingdom!
[Cut to Toad Town's Abandoned Center
The Center of Toad town is completely abandoned. A black cloud of smoke blocks most of the sunlight. Buildings are in ruin and some are even in piles of rubble. The buildings that stand are Bowser's new castle being constructed in the castle, and a few houses with boarded windows.
Red: Hey? Where is Ken? He was supposed to help us clean up this mess!
Blue: Beats me? How should we know?
Yellow: We have a problem then. Cousin Ken made it to the tops in Bower's army
Green: How did that brain box get into Bowser's elite army? He is strong but way to smart to want to be in THAT section of the army.
Suddenly Red saw what he thought was unimaginable! It was ken! He was seen with? No! It couldn't be! Mario?!?!?!?!
Red: Hey! Ken! Is that you?
Ken: Shoot! Someone saw us!
Mario: This is not-a good!
Red: But! But you were one of the most loyal soldiers in the minor army! Oh, HEY GREEN! NOW YOU REMEMBER WHY HE WAS PROMOTED!
Ken: Sorry but Bowser's idea of controlling the Elites and Minor units of the army is not my idea of a good ruler.
Red: You! Green! Yellow! Blue! Get here now! We're gonna show Mario and this traitor the powa of cool!
Slam! Dunk! Hit! Run! Charge! It was like a maniac sports game in this battle! However it didn't last long. The koopa bros tried their super cool final move. But it messed up, and a problem arose! They missed! And hit a wall! To bad for them. However Red got up. AHHGG! Ken and Mario through them under the mess that was made from earlier!
Red: WAKE UP! When we get out of here, they are going to pay…….
That was the last Mario sighting for a while. And that's a good thing to since it wasn't reported. To get to Bowser's castle, they used sneaking to proceed. For example,
Mario: Another group of guards! These guys are everywhere!
Ken: Leave this to me.
Mind if I get through here?
City entrance Guard: Sure thing Koopa, just need to know your name so I can identify you
Ken: I'm Ken I. Koophius. Here is my ID.
Guard: Its genuine, you can pass (at this point, Mario sneaks to the gate when the guard's backs are turned)
Along the way to Bowser's castle, Mario and Ken stopped once in a while and helped some unfortunate enslaved people. However they could not help much because they could be seen. As mentioned previously, they relied on stealth in order to proceed. But then they saw someone, and that meant that they were seen by someone. They were seen a large, almost open field with washed out colored crab grass. There was a 3 story cliff that dropped off to a lake about 300 feet away. It looked like trouble! Luckly, it was one of the Toads, and he ran over to see them with a look that was surprised!
Mario: Shhhh! don't say anything! We are trying to sneak through the deserted towns!
Toad: Are you crazy! That's a koopa there
Ken: I'm helping Mario. And you are not by talking at a regular voice! Whisper!
Toad: Okay! I am James T. by the way. Think I could help? I'm very sneaky and almost got out of here once. Hey wait a minute, how did you get by the security?
Mario: Ken has been distracting the Guards while I sneak by them. He seems to enjoy being a Koopa right now.
Ken: Indeed I am.
Guard: Hey! What's going on!
Mario: Crap! This isn't good!
Battle!
Guard: So, it seems we have a little traitor here! Oh you are going to get it
Ken: Not a chance! Attacks guard with a shell attack
James jumped on guard and threw him down
Guard: You are a strong little guy! But not strong enough! Uses a hammer attack
Guard: Yeah that's right! I was a hammer Bro for five years! You are going to have to shape up!
Mario: Used a hammer on the Guard's head.
Guard: SooooooooDiiiiiiizzzieeeee (misspelled on purpose) wooooooooorrrrrdllllllllspppppiinnnneeeee [Falls of a cliff
Guard: AHHHHHHHHH!!!!! NOOOOOOOO!!!!! ploof
Mario: That's-a so nice!
James: Hey! He is still alive!
Guard: Please! I won't do anymore harm to you! Get me up from here!
Mario, James, and Ken jump climb down cliff
They noticed a light, this time Blue was appearing around the guard. His armor fell off revealing a Hammer Bro with a blue-green shell.
Hammer Bro: Uhhhhggg! What was Bowser thinking! This is NOT my idea of how to get your high ranked officials who disagree with you to agree! Hey, wait?! You are Mario! How did you get unfrozen from the stone? Everyone in the Army was talking about it.
Mario explained what happened.
Hammer Bro: My name is George, but people call me Hamm since I was cool with my hammers.
Hamm and James joined the party.
Mario trusted Ken by after all his help, and knew that Hamm would be fine also. Mario asked Hamm what he thought of going to Bowser's castle
Hamm: Penetrating it will not be easy. It is heavily guarded with several soldiers patrolling it. You have to be invited to get in. I don't know how we can sneak to it.
James: Hey, I was in prison in that castle a long time ago! There are secret passages that lead to it! Nobody knows about them but me!
Mario: Where are they?
James: There seem to be a few. But I accidentally found it while one of the prison guards pulled a joke on me. I was in a bizarre looking dining hall, and was forced to clean the walls. I grabbed a ladder to clean the corners. It seems nobody ever paid attention to those tiny corners in the ceiling, because when cleaning it, I pressed a switch, and before I knew it, I was outside the castle!
Ken: What the? How in the heck did anyone not know about that?!
Hamm: Well, the castle is pretty old. I wouldn't be surprised if some things about it were forgotten over time.
Mario: I've stumbled upon hidden rooms there before. Show us the way James.
James: You lead us off Mario
Mario: Let's-a go!
Part Three
When they got to the castle, James showed them a secret entrance behind a rock.
James: Looks like the old warp pipe still works. Come on.
They all jump in and land in a tunnel. After crawling through the tunnel, James pushes a button that turns the wall around. They land in a bizarre looking dining room.
The dining room had an old clock in it, a large table, and a large fireplace. But then Mario spotted something over by the fireplace.
Mario: What the? What's-a that? Gross! It's hideous green blood over there!
Ken: Hope this is not Chris's blood
Mario: Enough cheesy Resident Evil references! Now split up and search for clues.
James: Have you been watching Scooby doo?
Mario: Shut up
While the penetration of Bower's castle started out humorous, it soon turned into a nightmare. It was as if Resident Evil had come to life! Dry bones filled the hall. Oddly enough, a few of them dripped red. Zombies were filled in this hallway. Bowser obviously didn't want anyone to get far. Mario had a plan.
Mario: If we are going to find the princess and Bowser, we will have to be stealthy later on. Maybe we should split up.
The team agreed with the plan, but things went even worse eventually. They split up to search around the dark and gray corridors of the castle. That is when a loud scream was heard from behind a door with the sound of squeaky gears turning.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! HELP! SOMEBODY HELP!"
It was Hamm! He was stuck behind a door!
Hamm: Get me out of here!
Ken walked down the hall and heard an ear shattering scream. He busted the door down only to find the wall closed in. He presumed Hamm to be dead at first.
"Help! Help! I'm alive! Get me out of the room!"
Ken: Hamm? But I thought you were a Hamm sandwich now! How did you get out?
Hamm: The door suddenly opened. I ran out the other way but now the wall is closed and I can't get out. I'm going to starve to death now and become one of those walking dry bones!
Ken: Can you break the wall with your hammer?
Hamm: I dropped it in that room
Ken: Great
MEANWHILE
Mario and James were in a strange situation. Rather than enemies surrounding them, they walked into a room filled with traps! The room had been filled with holes in the floor, had no windows, had a lit fireplace at the end of it, and had a wooden framing as the wall. One step could mean disaster. The traps ranged from swinging pendulums and axes, to grenades, mines, and pit falls. But what was really strange was a thing across the room. They couldn't see the thing but they headed towards it now knowing about the traps.
Mario: Wait! Don't take another step!
James: Huh?
Mario: Look!
James was standing on a trip mine. Then he took a better look around the room and saw TONS of hidden booby traps. He felt sick to his stomach. One step and both Mario and him would be blown to smithereens.
Mario: Stay there, I'll be back
James: Wait! Don't leave me!
Mario jumped across the traps, ran through fields of explosives, dodged the pendulums, and made it to the end. But James was still there.
Mario: Catch-a this!
Mario jumped onto one of the axes on the end and pulled the chain right off! Then swung it across the room and PULLED James off of the mine. Then BAM! It blew up and he whizzed past the axes, the other ground mines, the pitfalls, and the booby traps.
James: They don't call you the Super Mario for nothing
Mario: Don't-a worry, its-a no big deal. Booby traps are-a common thing-a here in the castle. But I've never seen this section of Bowser's castle though.
James: Hey, what is that?
Mario: It's a switch. Want to press it?
James: Uhhhhh, I don't know if it's a good idea.
Mario: Okay, lets-a press-a it together.
They pressed and……….the Wall moved! Inward that is.
Mario: It's a secret passage! Lets-a go!
MEANWHILE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE CASTLE
Hamm: Hey! A red button! It's…It's a secret passage!
While in the secret passage, Hamm meets up with James and Mario
Hamm: Mario! James! You're here too?
Mario and James: Hamm? You're here too! What are you doing here?
Hamm: I was locked in a room and saw a red button that opened a secret passage. Wait? How are you in this tunnel?
Mario: While we were looking around for some sort of clue, we stumbled into a booby trapped room. We got through and pulled a lever that took us through this tunnel.
James: Looks like perfect timing, we would have been stuck if you didn't push that button and you would be stuck if we didn't pull the lever.
Hamm: Hey, didn't think of that. Let's get back. Oh! And I found this
Mario: What is it?
Hamm: It's an invitation draft. It was in the Room that I was in before I pressed the button. It seems Bowser is getting married at 4:50 PM MK-time on July 5, 2005.
Mario: Wait, I thought I heard church bells a while ago
James: Today must be July 5! Get Ken and we will have to follow the church bells
Hamm: I guess that also explains why there aren't many guards in this hall. They just filled the room with Zombies and Dry Bones to keep intruders out since everyone would be at the wedding. Sounds logical, wouldn't you say?
Mario: Peach Marrying Bowser? Of course every Koopa will be there!
[LATER, after Ken rejoined the party
Mario: I heard them around here. Wait! I hear shouting also! And bells too.
After following the crowd and bells, they see a large corridor leading to what appears to be a church door.
Mario: Phew! They haven't married yet. Okay, listen up everyone, we can not blow this. If they get married, the two Kingdoms will be united and all War Crime charges on Bowser will be dropped! We can't let this happen. Come on! We can do this. Lets-a Go!
Ken: How are we supposed to get in?
Mario: Looks like we are going to have to bust in.
Hamm: Are you crazy?!
Mario: No, it's the only way. Look back there, if we are spotted by those armed guards, it will be blown. It's the only way. We can do this if we try. There is no turning back. It is either bust or succeed.
They hid in the shadows and waited for the Bride to walk down. After the wedding Vows were made, they BUSTED into a cathedral that is painted blue with stain glass windows with random geometric shapes. Reversed stars hang on the ceiling.
Mario: Stop this! I can NOT let this happen anymore!
Bowser: WHAT!?!??!?!?!??!?! NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! IT CAN'T BE!
Everyone was in shock! The only prisoner to ever escape Bowser's castle alone, one of the highest ranked Hammer Bros in the army, and loyalist soldier ever were all there to assist….Mario? Okay, how the heck could this be? And of all the people to assist, it was Mario! Soon Bowser's shock turned to rage and he let out a loud "KILL THEM!" order!
But it was unsuccessful! The lowlier troops failed to defeat the party. Bowser was furious and shouted "COWARDS!" to all the retreated troops. He called in a second wave, this time a large group of Hammer Bros. But ten hammer bros was equal to one George "Hamm" the elite Hammer bro. And with the others on his side, even the Bros. Squad failed.
Bowser: Humph! So those are weaklings? I'll do this myself!
Peach: Do it please! Finish these….Peasant things!
Mario: Princess?
Peach: Who the heck are you?
Mario: Its-a me! I've known you for over forty years! What is wrong with you!
Bowser: The princess isn't listening to you anytime soon Mario, she only likes me and only me now! And you will not stop me!
Then Bowser burned the party members with his flame breath. Mario jumped out of the way but the others weren't so fortunate!
Mario: NO! Oh! Good, they are alive! But you will pay for that!
Suddenly Bowser put his arms in the air, and it made a large charging noise. And then BAM! A black beam, darker than the night sky blasted Mario! It was sucking the life out of him
Bowser: I should have killed you a while ago, but now I am going to do it slowly!
Mario: Hmmmph!!! Uhhhhhggggg….AAHHHHHHHGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!
Bowser: No mercy this time Mario!
Peach: Wait! That's cruel! You shouldn't do that!
Bowser: This guy has ruined my plans one after one. You will be happy we don't have to deal with him later.
Peach: But if this is how you treat your enemies, you don't deserve to be a King!
Suddenly, a pink light shined around the princess. Pictures of Mario and her filled her mind, and she remembered!
Peach: I am….Princess Peach Toadstool.
Part Four
Bowser was confused all of a sudden.
Peach: I may have been in your control deeply but I was aware of what was going on this whole time!
Bowser: No! How could the spell fail!
She distracted Bowser, allowing Mario to escape. Bowser was in a raging fit there. But then he noticed Mario was gone. Peach was gone too! Where did everybody go?
Bowser: I'll get them!
He pressed a remote that locked down the castle
OUTSIDE THE CHURCH HALL
Mario: I feel so weak…
Ken: It burns!
James: Its 2nd degree!
Hamm: So hot! I'm never going near a fire again.
Peach: We will be fine eventually. But I have to be escorted to safety first. Then we can
But she was interrupted by a loud crash
Peach: No! The castle has been locked down
Bowser: You bet it has!
Mario: You followed us!
Bowser: What do you expect?!!! You intruded the castle and ruined the wedding! Now you will pay!
Bowser then muttered some weird stuff and grew to tremendous size! Everyone ran for their life. But he was too big. He ran toward Mario, and put his foot up and said, "It is time to die!"
Bowser started to chase them down into a hallway that looked like a dungeon filled with twists and turns. At his super size, he knocked down walls trying to reach them. The ceiling rose to over 400 feet, and Bowser was barely touching it. Just when the part made it to the ionic column exit, Bowser caused a tremor so huge, that it knocked everyone over. He mutters the phrase "It is your time to die."
But then something miraculous happened. It was….the stars of Power! Everything went into slow motion except Mario and the stars and the room darkened. Then! They absorbed into Mario and everything went sky bright! Mario rose, and a tremendous power came from Mario into Bowser. It was shocking! And Bowser grew Smaller and smaller! Bowser first imploded, than grew and blew up in a spectacular, loud, and electrical cracking sounding explosion! Bowser was defeated once and for all. Or was he?
Mario: Wow! What in the world was that?
James: Hey! I remembered an story when witnessing that! It's a continuation to an old legend where 7 stars of power assist a hero in his quest. They didn't assist much but when they did, it was more than a big help. Apparently, it is also based on some sort of prophecy about how a kingdom will fall and rise again.
Ken: I've heard that story too! I never thought about it here
Peach: Mario, thank you!
Suddenly, the hall filled with Guards and Army Troopas. The all thought that they were doomed! Bowser was gone but he could be replaced….this wasn't good. Several soldiers started shouting out in astonishment to what had just happened. A general then whistled out a few signals to align the soldiers to their positions.
General: I've been waiting a long time for this! Get in positions men.
Mario: This isn't over, get ready everyone.
In a bizarre change of action, the Crowd Cheered! And their positions from an overhead view spelt out a message.
What? How could this be!
Random Solider: By defeating the last of the Koopa family, that curse is finally gone!
Mario and his party Members: What?
A high ranked official: Years ago, Bowser's Father, Morton Koopa had his best assistant, Kamek, put a curse on everyone within an 800 mile radius. It caused anyone in the army to be a slave, practically a zombie. That's why every soldier that you, Mario, encountered just walked around. Not an ounce of intelligence. But it's over now! Bowser was the only true descendant of the Kupa family. Now, it's gone. The curse is broken. Look around you
Suddenly, light was pouring into the dark kingdom of the Koopa. It got brighter, and brighter. Then the sun came up and trees that were dead for years sprung back to life!
High Ranked Official: Its now truly over. The kingdom can be run by me and other High officials. Even though I had that curse in me, I had dreams of a democracy in this world. Maybe now it can be possible. Your Kingdom is a mess right now isn't it?
Peach: Completely! People are dead and cities are horribly destroyed! I saw it myself.
High Ranked Official: If our two kingdoms work together, the mess will never be a mess again.
Mario: Wait! Luigi! I forgot about Luigi in all this madness
High Ranked Official: he was dragged out of your house during the mission that occurred when the Main Castle in the Mushroom Kingdom was destroyed. He is being held prisoner. He is likely to have been set free by now.
Mario: Phew! Thank the stars!
Peach: No, thank you Mario. You have once again saved me from disaster.
Mario: No, thank the stars. They saved me.
Ken: It's true! The 7 stars of Power awakened him! Oh and you better thank us! We all helped Mario
Peach: I was getting around to that. We have to do something special for all of you.
High Ranked Official: Throw a party and bake a cake!
Everyone laughed, including Mario and the official himself.
Mario: Well, it's-a good that it's all over. Lets-a go home everyone.
General: Oh wait, I almost forgot. Look above you Mario from that ladder.
Mario looked above and when he saw what the soldiers spelt out, a big smile came upon his face. The soldiers spelt out "Thank you Mario, the Princess is in this castle."
It was a reliving moment. Everything would be normal again for the first time in over 80 years. Morton and his son Bowser may have been the worst kings in the history of the Koopa family but it was fine now. The mushroom Kingdom and Koopa kingdom could be friendly with each other again!
Or could they?
After everyone cleaned the castle up and left, koopas heard voices of rage coming from below the ground.
It was Bowser, and he had been sent into an eternal torture.
Bowser: He has sent me into pain and ridicule! This is even worse torture than what I placed upon my enemy! I will escape and vengeance will be mine!
THE END?
